🌿 Lava Cake – Week 6 (2nd Week Flower) | Morphing Into Bloom 🌿 The Lava Cakes are officially stepping deeper into flower mode. Stretch is slowing down, morphology is shifting, the leaves, the stance, the energy of the plants are clearly moving toward bloom. Even without a huge photo set this week, the video walkthrough tells the full story: happy, thriving plants under carefully tuned conditions. ⸻ 📖 A Quick Recap – From Seed to Here • Seedling Stage: Strong germination, started in solo cups with Aptus support, rooting fast. • Veg Growth: Transplanted into fabric pots, lush branching, topped and trained with ease. • Environment Setup: TrolMaster ecosystem dialed in step by step — exhausts, intakes, carbon filters, sensors. • Lighting Evolution: Black Series 600 → Future of Grow LEDs → ThinkGrow Model 1 → now with a Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W and the ThinkGrow ICL-300 added to the lineup. The room is a galaxy of light. • Nutrition Journey: From Aptus start boosters to super soil base, steadily adapted feeding. Now, the recipe grows richer for flowering. Each step has built the foundation for what’s happening now, the Lava Cakes standing strong in early flower. ⸻ 🍽️ This Week’s Feeding Recipe We swapped Start Booster for Top Booster and layered in a new experiment: Plagron trio support. Current Mix (per L water): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml • Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml The Aptus All-in-One Liquid is on pause for now, pellets in the soil still provide baseline nutrition. This new combo is about flower initiation + terpene support + bio-stimulants. It’s partly science, partly intuition — but that’s how discoveries are made. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment This Week • Room Temp: Up to 34°C (AC unit coming soon to stabilize) • Humidity: 60–70% at times • VPD: ~1.89 kPa • Soil Moisture: Watered when dry-down hits 19–20% • Monitoring: TrolMaster WCS Substrate Sensor → reading EC, moisture %, and soil temp straight to Tent-X brain Conditions aren’t perfect, but the girls are handling it gracefully. Warmth makes them thirsty, and with careful irrigation + sensor data, they’re drinking daily and staying strong. ⸻ 💡 Lights of the Garden • Future of Grow LED • ThinkGrow Model 1 and ICL-300 • Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W All tied into the TrolMaster network. The room is now a layered ecosystem of precision — light spread, airflow, and CO₂ distribution tuned for a canopy that can handle big flower production ahead. ⸻ 🐝 A Note for Nature – The Bees Alongside all this controlled technology, we can’t forget the real farmers of the world: bees. A photo this week shows a bee at work, pollinating. Without bees, there would be no flowers, not in the garden, not in the fields, not in the orchards. They are nature’s TrolMaster, carrying genetics forward, balancing ecosystems, ensuring that plants fulfill their destiny. In our indoor rooms, we simulate everything: light, water, air, food. But bees remind us of the real story outside, a world built on quiet pollination, day by day. A fairytale where the smallest wings sustain the biggest cycles of life. So this week, the Lava Cakes bloom under LEDs, and the bees bloom under the sun. 🌞🐝 ⸻ 🚀 Looking Ahead • AC will stabilize the room climate and drop stress levels. • Flowers will set fully, with pistils stacking over the next 7–10 days. • Plagron trio will show its effects, watching closely for flavor, resin, and density changes. • More light power may be added as the canopy demands. ⸻ ✨ Closing Thought: Even on a busy week, even with just a video instead of many photos, the story of these Lava Cakes is alive. They’re moving into flower with strength, under lights, with data guiding them — but always with love as the main ingredient. 📲 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 💚

Pretty fun. She’s growing really fast, didn’t expect it but it’s been pretty easy

To update...

happy and healthy little plant on day 26, im mostly getting smells of pine off this girl so far. hoping for more blueberry to show out

Lemon cherry cookies,Cherry cola and Ztrawberriez are all getting closer to harvest.They are still drinking heavy and trichomes are almost all cloudy on the 3.I still have a lot more time left with Strawberry pie,Papaya cookies,and Pound cake which they are all starting to show some maturity.

Day 2 - LST and training for the week.

Im just lovin this girl so much, the colours are fantastic and range between greys, greens, pinks and purple. Shes super frosty and smells great too

Die Autopots sind im Einsatz, nach anfänglichem zögern wegen dem ph-Wert. Der sich durchgehend verändert hat, von 5,6 bis zu 6,8. Habe ich mich dann erstmal durch etliche Foren gelesen. Es gibt die Möglichkeit das Wasser zu demineralisieren. Allerdings halte ich das für sinnlos, da die Minerale ja durch den Dünger wieder zugegeben werden. Bisher haben sich diese ph-Wert Schwankungen nicht bei den Pflanzen bemerkbar gemacht. Eher im Gegenteil, das Wachstum ist beachtlich. Zum Ende der Woche habe ich das Wasser im Reservoir ausgetauscht. Noch einmal ein paar Blätter rausgeschnitten und angefangen die Triebe mit den Hanfseilen herunter zu binden. Bei der einen Pflanze ist aus dem topping eher ein Fimming geworden, finde ich jetzt nicht weiter schlimm aber seht selbst. 😉 Grow on!

Blütewoche 2 und die Sticky Broccoli hat beschlossen, dass Bescheidenheit völlig überbewertet ist: Von 19 auf 45 Zentimeter in nur einer Woche ist ein neues Stretch-Level. Einige Triebe mussten noch weichen, aber mit rund 95 % ihrer finalen Anzahl wirkt die Architektur jetzt ziemlich durchgeplant. Das Wachstum ist weiterhin gesund und vital, die Blüte nimmt sichtbar Fahrt auf und die kleinen „Puschl“ werden von Tag zu Tag sichtbar größer. Mit einem EC-Wert von 1,8 läuft die Nährstoffversorgung stabil und sie nimmt sauber die Nutrients auf wobei sie keine Zicken zeigt. Auffällig sind die neuen, deutlich schmaleren Blätter, ein Hauch Sativa-Attitüde im Vergleich zum kräftigeren Startlaub. Insgesamt präsentiert sie sich strukturell gut organisiert, auch wenn sie flächenmäßig langsam Ansprüche anmeldet. Durst hat sie wie nach einem Halbmarathon; das Substrat trocknet schneller, als man „Drain“ sagen kann. Ihre Seitentriebe breiten sich ambitioniert aus und sie muss offenbar noch lernen, dass sie nicht allein in der Duschekabine steht. Der Stretch dürfte bald seinen Höhepunkt erreichen, danach sollte mehr Energie in die Verdichtung der Budsites gehen. Viel Tempo, viel Potenzial und eine Diva mit Wachstumshormonen, die genau weiß, dass jetzt ihre große Bühne beginnt. Wie findet ihr den krassen Strech in einer Woche?

We started the week by measuring their height. Now I'm starting to think about when to switch them to flowering. Time is limited, so we have to cut back where we can. I don't have much space, so they don't need to stay much longer. They'll grow considerably in the next few days, and this might be their last week of vegetative growth. A total of 5 weeks. Six days after the last pruning, I did another pruning of the lower branches and leaves, and now they are ready to change the photoperiod to 12/12h in a few days. At 33 days I decided to put a mesh over them so I could fill the space better. Seeing that numbers 4 and 5 had reached a larger size than the rest, I changed the position of number 3 for number 5. This week I raised the LEDs, approximately 50 cm or so, increased the wattage to 300W, and added a mesh screen to start a sgrog setup. Iniciamos la semana midiendo la altura. Llegados a esto ya empiezo a plantearme cuando pasarlas a floración. El tiempo es limitado y hay que recortar por donde se pueda. No dispongo de mucho espacio por lo que no necesitan estar mucho más tiempo. En los próximos dias crecerán notablemente y puede ser esta su última semana de crecimiento. Total 5 semanas. Pasados 6 dias desde la última poda volví hacerles una nueva poda de ramas y hojas bajeras y así las ya quedan listas para cambiar el fotoperiodo a 12/12h. en pocos dias.. A los 33 dias decidí ponerles una malla y así poder ir llenando mejor el espacio. Al ver que las números 4 y 5 habian alcanzado un mayor tamaño que el resto cambié de lugar la nº3 por la nº5 . Esta semana subí los led , apróximadamente unos 50 ctms poco menos, aumenté la potencia a 300W. y puse una malla para empezar con un sgrog

Seit Ende letzter Woche wurde das Licht auf 12/12 h umgestellt 💡 Die RP43 ist in dieser Woche nochmal ein Stück in die Höhe gegangen und hat sich insgesamt gut entwickelt. 🌿🌱 Auch die Vorblüte ist an Blütetag 7 das erste mal erschienen. 👀 Sie ist bis jetzt gut in die Blüte gerutscht🌱

Only waiting...

She is looking amazing since! I am very happy!

As you can see, she is getting thicker as days go by! Looking to harvest her in 2 weeks! Minor light burn on the top cola, but other then that no deficiencies at all.

I'm so inpatient it's unreal , can't wait to see there journey

Mental rainbow F1 the development and the complex colours of buds forming is interesting and looks/feels dense the plant is mainly focusing energy on side branches as well as main branches bud development they are definitely fattening up and thrichome are sparkling in development too looking forward to seeing her fatten up over next few says till flush

LFG! berry heaven!

(11/04-11/10) First Week Notes & Observations: One week old, not much to report to report other than the first plant is smaller than the second at the start of the week. Removed the domes as the humidity in the tent is set pretty high and think it should be fine. RH this week was monitored for 80% Temps were monitored for 78F daytime and 68-70F overnight. Lights were adjusted to provide 280ppfd on plant 1 and 270ppfd plant 2 - that is also the max for this week. It's an increase from 150 last week. Feed & Monitor: Day 11 - both plants were fed about .80 gallons of 5.8ph de-chlorinated tap water for runoff. Both plants produced .25 gallons of 6.7ph and 1980/1950ppm runoff measured with 2 ph pens that were tested&calibrated first. Plant 1 top soil test after feed was avg 6.62 and plant 2 avg 6.85 both plants were tested 3 times on top soil. Made a video of plants.... not sure what is expected here, but think it will just be for fan movements and free music. Hope everyone enjoys the daily progressions of overhead and side profile (Organized Chaos). I will try to add Black back or cover pics by end of week every week.

Alla fine questo feno di CBD auto 20:1 non è riuscito a preservare i tratti della fioritura automatica, evidentemente i geni fotoperiodici sono riusciti ad avere la meglio nella battaglia per la sopravvivenza della specie, non sempre le cose vanno come di progetto! Tanto la tenda sta andando a 12/12 perché ci sono 2 FF e quindi non ci sono problemi per le ragazze! Sto dando sia a lei che a LSD25 da bere separatamente rispetto alle altre perché ognuna ha i suoi tempi per bere e quindi mi sto regolando di conseguenza, la bilancia per pesare i vasi mi sta aiutando…ma guardo anche la forma della pianta ovviamente e se ha sete dovresti riconoscere dall’aspetto un po’ affaticato, ecco fin qui sarebbe meglio non arrivare, per questo ho messo il limite con un peso di 2.1 kg, sotto questo limite vuol dire che devono bere assolutamente! Funziona!
