Flipped to flower to see what she can do because so many clones took! I'm so super new that it's still so exciting every time I figure something out. Definite pistils at day 3 of flower

Good day to all my friends and visitors here on GD. Decided to finally finish this diary so that on New Year eve I'm not opening the year with unfinished business. Now we cut the second Tropicanna XL auto plant, the first cut you can find in week 17. The plant from week 17 weighted 2.6 kilo wet, this one finished at 2.1kg. wet. The girls where autoflower but thanks to me starting this grow in cold day temps (14 degree Celsius) the started flower really late and grew and grew :) I enjoyed growing this strain immensely, smells so sweet and fruity, she has the most intense and most delicious aroma ever She brunches off like crazy, gave me a ton of big and dense bud. They were the biggest plants I have ever grown and to top that this cultivar rewarded me with one of the most tasteful buds, fit even for a picky connesour. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SE7000 done it's magic with this grow as with all my other grow ops. For anyone who is interested in obtaining this efficient and affordable light fixture ($ to gram) here's the link: https://spider-farmer.com/products/spider-farmer-upgraded-se7000-730w-commercial-led-grow-light/ A shout out to Sweet Seeds for the gift of this fenomenal genetics: https://sweetseeds.es/en/ Thank you all for your companionship on this voyage, I hope you enjoyed it at least as much as I did. Also thank you for this awesome year together here. Together with my little family we want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a happy slide into the New Year, we love you all.

Some plants already showed pre-flower signs at day 18 after sprouting. A lot of growth happened during this week

she is so sticky when you pass by her and she grabs your shirt you will smell it after the interlude

La 8e semaine avec les LSD 25 se déroule à merveille ! Elles ont complètement récupéré de l'excès d'azote et sont pratiquement prêtes. D'ici deux jours, l'une d'entre elles sera prête à être récoltée après 48h d'obscurité. C'est fascinant de voir une plante passer de la graine à la récolte en seulement 56 jours, soit moins de 2 mois. Cette rapidité laisse de la place pour démarrer une nouvelle culture et gagner deux semaines de plus. Quant à l'autre plante, elle bénéficiera de deux semaines supplémentaires pour observer d'éventuelles différences de taille, d'effets ou d'arômes. Pour magnifier les saveurs et les huiles des fleurs, je leur offre désormais des nutriments Final Part de Terra Aquatica. J'ai hâte de voir le résultat de cette attention particulière ! 🌱

This plant is a beauty!! Ivamba little worried about how close she is to the light, but my light is as high as it can go and my plant is as low as it can go so, if anyone has any suggestions let me know. I am super happy with this 420 Fast Buds plant. Today is day 41 and this Gorilla Cookies is blowing my mind. Thank you 420 Fast Buds!!

Week4 5-6 Day 22 Flowers, right around the corner. Just readjusted LST, tad behind. Maybe made a boo boo. Maybe not. But I did drop her on her head week 1. 😵 Time will tell, either way, I'll finish her. I've been all over this grow. Wind burn, clawing, maybe stunt. Hahaha the fun of growing and learning. Eco 30%. Claw fix in progress. Happy Growing!

🌱 Lemon Cherry Gelato Week 5 — 12/12 From Seed Stage: Pre-Flower / First Flower (Transitional Week) This week marks the true transition point. The plants are simultaneously vegetating, stretching, and initiating flower signals. Growth is active in all directions, and structure is beginning to lock in. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Structure & Growth • Height: ~25 cm (± a little, depending on individual) • Overall shape: flat, round, bushy canopy • Internodal spacing: tight and controlled • Branching: strong, symmetrical, and responsive The plants are opening beautifully. Branches are asserting themselves naturally, with no forcing — just guidance. Uniformity across the girls is striking. Similar structure, similar pace, similar “language.” That consistency speaks volumes about both genetics and environment. ⸻ ✋ Training Focus (More Intensive, Still Gentle) This week we increased training in intention, not aggression: • Leaf tucking and bending only • No topping, no cutting • Leaves are guided under growth tips to promote lateral branching Response has been excellent. Each adjustment is followed by visible compensation and expansion. The plants want to branch — we’re simply making space for it. ⸻ 🌱 Root Activity Roots are now visibly emerging at the soil surface — a clear sign of: • Healthy root pressure • Active microbial and enzymatic processes • A plant fully connected to its medium This is exactly what we want to see at this stage. ⸻ ✨ Plant Health & “Mood” • Leaves: healthy green, good turgor • Stems: thickening, flexible, well-supported • Resin: early stickiness already present • Overall response: calm, strong, cooperative Everything indicates balance rather than stress. ⸻ 💡 Lighting Update — Under-Canopy Introduction By the end of this week, under-canopy lighting is being connected. Why now? • Plants are passing key developmental signals • We want them to recognize photons from below early • This helps guide structure, awareness, and later flower density We are not forcing PPFD. We are letting the plants grow into the light, learning where energy exists above and below. ⸻ Nutrient Adjustment — Cal-Mag Introduced This week we introduce Cal-Mag into the recipe. Reason: Our water source is a blend of: • Humidifier water • Rainwater Both are naturally low in calcium and magnesium. As demand increases during stretch and early flower signaling, supplementation becomes necessary to: • Support cell wall development • Prevent future deficiencies • Maintain structural strength during expansion This is a preventive, not reactive adjustment. ⸻ 🌸 Autoflowers × 12/12 From Seed For anyone still questioning this approach: These plants are the answer. Branching. Structure. Vigor. Uniformity. They are doing everything they should be doing — and doing it beautifully. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next (Week 6) • Continued stretch with stronger apical definition • Clearer pre-flower expression • Increased lateral dominance • Canopy filling outward rather than upward • Light demand gradually increasing Training will remain observational and responsive, not aggressive. ⸻ 🙏 Final Words Thank you to everyone following along, observing, learning, and sharing this space. All major observations this week are fully photo- and video-documented — from canopy to stem to soil — so you can see what’s being described. We move forward calmly, attentively, and with respect for the plant. Let them shine 🌱✨ Training Philosophy: Why Less Touch Often Equals More Structure At this stage, training is not about control — it’s about communication. Every time we touch a plant, it responds hormonally. Too much intervention can interrupt its own decision-making process, especially during transitional weeks like pre-flower. By tucking and bending instead of cutting, we allow the plant to: • Maintain uninterrupted growth momentum • Redistribute auxins naturally rather than abruptly • Strengthen stems through adaptive response • Decide where and how to branch based on light signals Less touch doesn’t mean less guidance. It means clearer signals and cleaner structure. When the environment is stable and the plant is healthy, minimal intervention often results in: • More uniform branching • Stronger symmetry • Reduced stress expression • Better long-term flower support In short: We don’t force shape — we make space, and the plant does the rest. Week 5 Veg/pre-flower | 8×8 Tent | Master Conditions 🌍 External Environment (Context) • Outside temperature: ~5 °C • Outside RH: 92–96% (very high humidity) • Strong seasonal pressure influencing internal stability ⸻ 🌡️ Internal Tent Conditions • Tent temperature: ~21.8 °C (noted drop due to cold external temps) • Tent RH: ~58% → Very good considering outside conditions ⸻ 💨 Airflow & Circulation • Primary airflow: Bottom → top → wall return • Pattern: Full-room vortex circulation • Additional fans: Central airflow to break blind spots and mix layers • Goal: No stagnant pockets, uniform VPD across canopy ⸻ 💧 Water Source & Rationale • Water: Dehumidifier water + rainwater • Base EC: force • Systems designed to support plant intelligence, not override it FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Just added water this week to what was left in each reservoir; which dropped EC to the 1 range. Dropped lights down to 10 hours to lower DLI. Ended up chopping the Brain Freeze plant that had dried out somewhat from the line getting plug last week. 1/27 L - 5.56 1.0 R - 5.54 1.1 2/1 L - 5.67 0.62 R - 5.82 0.64

Hello my beautiful friends 😇 😇 😇 After 3 weeks on grow period flowering stage is here 💪 💪 💪 Day- 22 The girls started to be very bushy, as they start showing first sign of flowering I go into the action and I proceed a small defoliation 🙌 Nothing big just to maintain a healthy growth and airflow 😇 😇 😇 Day- 23 Around two or three days ago I make a new tank of 10l... Nearly entire solution goes 😇 I have got heavy drinkers here 😂 😂 😂 All the best, You Lovely Girls Growers 💪💪💪

Day 1 ....add additional soil, water and 1st topping Day 3 - checked for 2nd topping Day 5- watering....strong stems already

Good afternoon gromies 😄 😇 😊 Week 9 was absolutely crazy. All my girls start to achieve an about high. White Blueberry she is amazing, she isn't crazy tall like her sister "Uber-lato" but 116cm in Day 64 is enough 😇 She have a beautiful structure and she's developing amazing flowers. They are dens and growing one by each other 😇 I love it !! Have a good night, You Lovely Girls Growers 😇 🙏 😊

Update week 8 from seed

Tuesday Ok so the plants are doing really well. One of the kalini Asia plants is in the only regular pot I’m using now. It’s a little larger than the AutoPot XL’s so therefore the plant is slightly bigger but spread out because I topped it a while ago and today I took all the bottom leaves as well as quite a few of the lower lateral branches that well small and weak. Hopefully this will encourage the energy to where it want it - The main growth tips! I think it was the other kalini Asia that is in the AutoPot XL that I ended up ‘super cropping’? Do correct me if I used the wrong term. The main growth stems were quite a lot higher than the large lateral branches so I squeezed the stem with my finger and flopped the main colas over then taped them and tied them to support them. The canopy is MUCH more even across all plants now. They look a bit bent over at the moment but I bet when I look tomorrow they are all facing the light again. Magic! They are def in the stretch phase now. They are growing like crazy. I’m really glad I did the nasty job of pulling each plant out and tying it down and cutting off the shit that won’t grow anything good. Oh I also gave them a watering from the top using lots of microbes (ecothrive biosys) and molasses dissolved into warm water. The res was basically empty and honestly the AutoPot XL’s don’t even look wet at all on top even though they are getting all the water they need. They don’t react negatively when I occasionally water goodies in from the top so it’s all good!!
