My strawberry gorilla is really starting to be a pleasure to grow. At 1st I had it in a small tent with my gorilla cookies and the other plant was taking all the light and the tent was so small I kept having to cut back at both the plants so they would fit in the tent but now they are in the bigger flower tent by themselfs and man all the lollipoping did wanders for this plant it’s got some nice big colas. You could definitely get this plant to make huge colas if done right. Only my 3 auto so I’m figuring it out.

DE In der vierten Blütewoche verdichten sich die Strukturen beider Last Dance-Phänotypen weiter. Der erste Phänotyp hat seinen Stretch nahezu abgeschlossen und legt nun deutlich an Blütenmasse zu. Die Hauptcolas sind fest definiert und beginnen sich mit einer feinen Harzschicht zu überziehen. Das Aroma wird noch dominanter – sehr schwer, gassig und durchdringend, mit einem kräftigen Funk. Der zweite Phänotyp bleibt kompakter, zeigt aber eine sehr gleichmäßige Blütenausbildung über alle Seitentriebe hinweg. Die Buds setzen zunehmend Kristalle an und wirken schon jetzt frostig. Sein Duft entwickelt sich klar in Richtung süß-fruchtiger Cocktailnoten, die immer intensiver und komplexer werden. Insgesamt präsentieren beide Pflanzen in Woche vier eine starke Blütenentwicklung mit ersten sichtbaren Harztrichomen, stabiler Struktur und einem weiter ausreifenden, charakteristischen Terpenprofil. EN In the fourth week of flowering, both Last Dance phenotypes continue to build density and structure. The first phenotype has nearly finished stretching and is now focusing on bud mass. The main colas are firmly established and starting to glisten with a fine layer of resin. Its aroma grows even heavier – strongly gassy, pungent, and deeply funky. The second phenotype remains compact but shows very uniform bud formation across all side branches. The flowers are noticeably frosty already, as trichomes begin to cover the sites. Its scent develops further towards a sweet, fruity cocktail profile that is becoming more intense and layered. Overall, both plants show strong flower development in week four, with the first visible resin production, solid structure, and increasingly mature terpene expression.

У Халка все в порядке, поливаю каждый день, опрыскиваю мегафолом русским, вообщем норм вроде. Скоро для корней штука придёт, тоже должно понравиться. Буду добавлять фото в течение недели. Такой формат привлекательнее как по мне. 14.09.21 9 дней, рост начался, корешки заполняют стакан. К концу неделю пересажу в мешок 10л. 15.09.21. 10 дней, реакция на вчерашнюю подкормку рутфармом вместе с основным кормом хорошая, переживал из за ррм раствора=900. Но все нормально. Халк кушает и не давится. Но наглеть не надо, все в меру. 17.09.21 халк реально толстая малышка. Обратите внимание на фото, при росте 5-7см ствол толстый мама мия. Завтра буду пересаживать в мешок 10л, всем спасибо, до встречи 🙏✌️

I had a couple phenos in flush at the start of the week. I have ran into some issues with bud rot on pheno #1 and removed some branches to stop the spread. The whole tent is in flush this week and will come down at the end of the week. Most phenos wanted to finish in the 60-65 day range. The terps have really developed into a citrus with hint of orange and do live up to the name "sunny D og" The yeild is average at best. Bud structure was lacking in some respects. I think the frostiness is on point with most phenos. The harvest and smoke report will follow shortly after drying. Overall this was a fun run with a stable strand by a small upcoming breeder. I hope I did him some justice on this run.

I top dressed with a hand of worm castings per pot and noticed first pre-flowers on the Epsilon F1. Super green and healthy girls and slowly a delicious fruity smell is sticking on my hands after touching the leaves.

The plant was harvested and trimmed, yielding a total of 112 grams. Buds are notably dense, pleasantly heavy, and visually striking. Their surface exhibits a green velvet-like shimmer, which may indicate optimal trichome density and light-reflective resin coverage. This supports the hypothesis that late-stage environmental conditions—such as controlled humidity and light spectrum—contributed positively to resin production and bud structure. Further analysis during curing will help validate terpene retention and overall potency. Initial results suggest a successful harvest.

🌿 Lava Cake – Week 5 (First Week Flower) | Pre-Bloom & Heat Talk 🌿 The Lava Cakes have officially stepped into their flowering tent… though, to be fair, they’re still enjoying a little extra veg time before showing pistils. Both phenos are healthy, lush, and stretching beautifully, clearly ready for the show ahead. ⸻ 📸 Photo Studio Glam We took them out for another studio shoot, bright lights, clean background, and every angle showing off their deep greens and perfect branching. Soon, their beauty will be dressed in flowers, but for now, the leaf structure alone is worthy of the spotlight. ⸻ 🌡️ Current Conditions • Room Temp: 31°C • Humidity: 50.3% • VPD: 2.23 kPa • PPFD: 766 µmol/m²/s • Soil EC: ~2.0 • Soil Temp: 25.6°C Yes, the temperature is running hot — AC unit is on the way to lock it back into our ideal zone. ⸻ 💬 Heat in the Grow Room – Risks & Benefits Potential Risks: • Faster substrate drying = more frequent irrigation needed • Higher transpiration rates can stress plants if roots can’t keep up • Slightly increased risk of light stress at high PPFD without proper cooling • Possible reduced terpene retention if sustained into late flower Possible Benefits (short term in veg/pre-flower): • Accelerated metabolism — plants grow and stretch faster • Increased water/nutrient uptake (if well-fed and watered on time) • Can improve CO₂ usage efficiency if levels are high enough Bottom line: As long as they’re hydrated, fed, and ventilated, short bursts of high temp are manageable. But for flowering, we want to keep daytime temps closer to 24–28°C for optimal quality. ⸻ 💧 Watering Strategy We water when the soil dries to about 25% moisture remaining, this encourages: • Stronger root growth searching for water • Better oxygenation of the root zone • Less risk of root rot in warm temps Right now: They’re drinking daily due to the heat, so we’re feeding daily as well. ⸻ Current Feeding (per L of water) • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml With the increased drinking rate, nutrient uptake has increased — meaning no signs of deficiency, just steady lush green. ⸻ 🚀 Looking Ahead • AC installation will stabilize temps, allowing tighter VPD control • First signs of pistils should appear within the next 7–10 days • We’ll begin adjusting feed ratios for early bloom once flowers set • Light intensity will climb further as stretch continues ⸻ 💚 Closing Note: This week is all about momentum, heat or no heat, the Lava Cakes are pushing upward, prepping themselves for a heavy flower load. The environment tweaks are on the way, and we’re building them the perfect stage for their bloom performance. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Things are going good, I am beginning to think about when to harvest. I have tried capturing some microscope shots of the trichomes with a 15x macro lens (BlitzWolf), but they turned out awful. They still look transparent and glasslike, and I did not see many, if any, amber trichomes. I am going on vacation next week, and wonder if plant will be fine with not being harvested before the 8th of July, two weeks from now. Day 3: Watered Day 4: Macro shots. Trichomes look transparent and glasslike, but since this is my first grow, any input from experienced growers is very welcome :-) Day 7: Watered. No amber trichomes in sight, I will wait one more week before the harvest.

D22 - Today was the start of the fourth week of veg, and it was time to transplant the girls into their final pots. I got the largest pots that I could find that still would fit in my small tent: 25-liter square pots. I prepared each pot with mycorrhiza before transplanting. I picked #2 and #3 to transplant since they are the most similar in structure, even though #1 and #2 are more similar in size. I adjusted the light to 300 PPFD at the canopy level. Finally, I gave each girl one liter of water @ pH 6.6. D24 -The girls love their new homes and have grown quite a bit in a couple of days. I've added a bunch of sensors to the pots to monitor the soil moisture better, one Flower Care sensor and one Blumat Digital in each pot. The Flower Care sensors aren't all that reliable in larger pots, so I temporarily added the Blumat sensors from my other tent to get a feel for how the FC sensors work in these pots and dial in the Blumat watering system. However, I haven't turned on the system yet, as the soil moisture remains relatively high after the transplant. D25 - It looks like the transplant was a success and that I avoided stunting either girl. They are looking more vigorous with each day. Yay! I'll give them one more day to chill and settle in before starting LST tomorrow. D26 - Started LST today. D27 - Tightened the LST wires and increased the light dimmer to around 400 PPFD at canopy level. D28 - The end of the fourth week of veg and all is well in the tent. I did a soil slurry test to check the pH since this is the first time using this soil blend. The test showed a pH of 7.0 so all good.
