11.12.2025 She's nearly ready to be cut off. Everyday now I'm checking her trichomes and she has got a lot of them 😅. Most are milky and just a few are golden. So some patience and the sweet point will be reached. Her smell is citric-sweet, very individual with notes of Whiskey and fireplace. Extremely sticky and obviously promissing to be very tasty. I am so happy about my "christmas-decission" 🌸💜

🌱 Grow Report — Week 9 (Week 5 Flower) Photoperiods | 12/12 from Seed vs 2 Weeks Veg After weeks of growth, adjustments, patience, and a few ups and downs… we’ve arrived at one of the most exciting stages of the cycle. This is where everything starts to come together. ⸻ 🔬 Quick Recap (for anyone joining now) We’re running the same genetics in two different approaches: • 🌱 Plant A — 12/12 from seed (no veg) • 🌱 Plant B — 2 weeks veg before 12/12 Current environment: • 🌡️ 28°C • 💧 60–65% RH • ⚡ EC 2.4 • pH 6.5 • 🌬️ CO₂ ~1000 ppm • 💧 Water intake: ~1.5–2L/day Both plants are healthy, vigorous, and pushing hard — but expressing themselves very differently. ⸻ 🌿 What’s Happening This Week This is true flower acceleration. You can see it clearly: • Bud sites stacking • Internodal spacing defining structure • Pistils exploding • Trichomes beginning to coat everything The plant is now shifting energy from: 👉 vertical growth → flower production + resin output ⸻ ✨ Trichomes — The Frost Begins Those macro shots… beautiful. What you’re seeing: • Early capitate-stalked trichomes forming • Resin heads still mostly clear • Rapid increase in density on sugar leaves and calyxes Why do trichomes exist? They’re not just “frost”: • 🛡️ Protection against UV • 🐛 Defense against pests • 💧 Moisture regulation • Chemical factory (terpenes + cannabinoids) What does this level of production mean? 👉 Strong genetic expression 👉 Good environmental balance 👉 High potential for quality resin later on Right now = foundation stage Later = bulking + ripening ⸻ 🌸 Pistils (White Hairs) — What They Tell Us Those white hairs everywhere = pistils. They are: • The female reproductive organs • Designed to catch pollen (which we don’t want here) What they indicate: • Plant is in active flower development • Bud sites are still building structure • No maturity yet — still early/mid stage When they: • Turn orange/brown → maturity approaching • Recede → calyx swelling begins Right now? 👉 Peak formation phase ⸻ 🌱 Bud Formation & Structure You said it perfectly: 👉 “Golf balls forming” That’s exactly it. What we’re seeing: • Tight clusters starting • Defined spacing between bud sites • Structure that will determine final yield Key observation: • The spacing is clean and organized • Light penetration is doing its job • No overcrowding → better airflow + resin potential ⸻ 🌿 Color & Health That lush green? 👉 Perfect. It means: • Nitrogen still available but not excessive • No major deficiencies • Photosynthesis running strong At EC 2.4: 👉 They’re feeding heavy and accepting it well ⸻ 🌱 The Big Comparison — Two Different Timelines 🌱 Plant A — 12/12 From Seed • Shorter (~90 cm) • More compact • Earlier flower maturity • Faster transition 👉 This one is ahead in flower development ⸻ 🌱 Plant B — 2 Weeks Veg (Studio Plant) • Taller (~120 cm) • More branching • More sites • Slight delay in flower maturity 👉 Still building structure + stretching slightly longer ⸻ ⚖️ Why This Difference Happens It’s simple but powerful: 👉 Time in vegetative state = structural foundation • Plant B had more time to: • Build roots • Create branches • Store energy So: • More size • More sites • But slightly delayed flowering Meanwhile: • Plant A went straight into reproduction mode 👉 Faster flowering, less structure ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next 🌱 12/12 From Seed Plant • Faster ripening • Smaller but denser buds • Likely earlier harvest • More uniform structure ⸻ 🌱 2 Weeks Veg Plant • Bigger colas • More yield potential • Slightly longer flowering time • Possibly more variation between buds ⸻ ⚠️ What NOT to Expect (yet) • No cloudy/amber trichomes yet • No final swelling • No terpene peak yet 👉 That comes later (weeks 6–8+) ⸻ 🙏 Closing — From Grower to Growers To everyone following this journey: • The OGs • The new ones • The silent watchers • The ones asking questions • Even the critics This is for all of you. To the sponsors, the genetics, the tools, the platform… To the environment, to the process… To the ups, the downs, and everything in between. And to the plants themselves 🌱 — because at the end of the day, they do the real work. ⸻ This week is special. You can feel it: 👉 The shift 👉 The momentum 👉 The promise of what’s coming And we’re just getting started. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. 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.

Muy contento con el resultado de esta hermosa genética llena de resina , un olor muy rico, agradable al fumar y muy potente, cumple con creces mis expectativas 👍👨‍🌾🏻🍀

Big week! I got my new EarthBoxes and a bunch of goodies. I picked up the Probiotic Farmer's Alliance kit from BuildASoil, so I also got some EM-1, Kashi Blend, dolomite lime and Malibu compost. Alongside that I picked up Colorado Worm Compost (vermicompost), Gnarley Barley (malted barley, corn and hemp) and Craft Blend (aprox 3-5-2 organic mix). Unfortunately there was a bag of soil missing, so I ended up using my own mix though I am somewhat scared of it being too clay-heavy for the SIP. I inoculated with EM-1 and began fermenting a batch of activated EM-1 to make the bottle last longer. It looks about a week from LST, after that I hope to set up a two-tier SCROG setup and begin growing the bushes. I will begin spraying AEM-1/EM-FPE/EM-5 alternatively once a week for IPM, I will try to avoid using neem this round (unless I find this approach lacking). I also brewed a batch of EM-FPE with aloe that smells incredible, I can't wait to give it a go.

my guanokalong powders (bat guano) NPK 1-10-1 guanokalong palm tree ashes NPK 0-1-30 I want to make compost tea PK Booster. and I reduced the lamp from 1000W to 600W on 5 week of flowering because i have temp porblem

This is the first day of week 4. I decided against any form or training or topping and decided to focus on watering and getting nutrients correct for this first grow. Being it’s a tent grow, I can essentially grow when I choose now anyway. Touching the plant leaves the soft but pleasant smell on your fingers that we all know and love. I’ve also drilled more holes in the bottom of the pot and do get some runoff when I water now. Considering switching to 12/12 in a weeks time.

Update week 2 of Bloom

Just another week on the garden

Vendanges en deux parties pour avoir différents effets. Après 8jours de séchage cette dame pesée 46g. Fumé douce note de fruits et de hash.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la primera semana de floración de estas Papaya sherbet feminizadas de fastbuds. Vamos al lío, de las 3 plantas, me quede con 2 por espacio, siempre pongo alguna semilla de más por si no abriese alguna por no perder ese hueco del indoor. También se trasplantaron a su maceta definitiva, en este caso de 7 litros, que el mismo trasplante provocó un shock, que también fue solucionado inmediatamente. El ph se controla en 6.2 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 20/22 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Hello everyone, here after 1 week of 12/12, the plants are doing well, the stretch is easily manageable for now and apart from 2 small latecomers the filling of the net is done perfectly ... As for the fertilizer I count as usual divided by 2 fertilizer grow and bloom to avoid the nitrogen deficiency, and the appearance of bloom fertilizer buds ... I also change the MH for HPS because personally I find the stretch more manageable with mh during 1 week of pre-flowering ... here is now room for photos ...

Clockwise bottom right gluesniffer, strawberrysorbet, Seems to have worked. One hindsight and gg4 self topped kind of. Today i foliar hit half the double plants SS and hindsight with my krebs cycle booster (no pgrs, mostly special organic acids and best type of K...) at final of over 2000ppm...we'll see if we get no Change, burn, or stretch with growth...

She is in full flowering stage, smelling very good and with excellent development. During this stage a lot of pistils present and growing. Also cutting old leaves and big ones that don't allow sunlight to enter the plant.

@ the beginning of week 8: As usual, I alternate Biotab's fermented compost tea in the generative phase, alternating weekly with Bio PK Booster and regular Cannazymes to clean up the gears of my ladies again and again... 😁

Definetly indica dominant. This pheno is looking amazing by far!!! Starting to get a little smell from her😎. Happy growing!!

Final days before the cut! I'm starving the plant, by adding no nutrients. The chlorophyll in the remaining fan leaves has substantially dropped. The glitterying trichomes are densely packed and mostly cloudy. By the beginning of next week, will be the day

Transplanted today added another blue CFL 250w +:125w temps gone up nicely.... Looks like it was needed! After a week I will switch to the gavita dual end once these are settled haven't got tent up they seem to be fine so far but they are touching each other

Its almost time for lights out. Today they had their last watering. I think this is the best grow I had since I started 1 year ago.

This last week shit got really frosty !! The monkey berries is wicked the terps are creamy sour milk and cherry halls mmmmmmm I’m thinking about 7 to 10 days more then start flushing the monkey berries . Slurricane is putting on the weight like there’s no tomorrow and frosty too with 4 weeks to go she will be my best run by far, terps grapefruit and sweet skunk
