First and foremost, I want to express my immense gratitude for the incredible honor bestowed upon me by Weed World Magazine. The magnitude of this opportunity fills me with humility and a deep sense of blessing. I want to thank you for this chance to share a glimpse into my world.
Greetings to all. I am DogDoctorOfficial—a simple home grower with an unwavering passion for life. The origins of my journey with cannabis are wrapped in the mist of time, and it all started with a classic seed found in a bag. Little did I know that this germination would begin a profound and lifelong connection with this incredible plant, which started somewhere in the last century.
Throughout my adventures, traversing continents from Europe and South America to exotic destinations like South Africa and the Himalayas in India, cannabis has been my steadfast companion and guardian angel. Each step has been a lesson, unveiling the secrets of cultivation, the rich history, the myriad benefits, the diverse cultures, and so much more. These experiences have shaped my journey, turning the act of nurturing my medicine and veggies into a source of profound peace and meaning.
(Right) after several rewarding Cali seasons, the onset of the Covid era unexpectedly led me to a vibrant online community that now feels like an extended family. It began with Grow Diaries and an Instagram presence dedicated to my green companions. Over time, I shed my shyness, connecting, learning, and growing alongside fellow enthusiasts. The camaraderie in the online Canna Family is nothing short of amazing.
A pivotal moment in this journey was the blessing of sponsorship from Aptus Holland, a relationship I am immensely proud of. In the Aptus World, I found the Aptus Gang—a new family comprising incredible growers like Brother Dagga Dna and many more. The anticipation of meeting them face-to-face at Spannabis 2024 is nothing short of epic.
When it comes to cultivation, I’m that guy who loves to explore every method, from topping to scrog, LST to HST. I believe that in every seed I germinate lies the potential for the best medicine. And, of course, I can’t forget the allure of root porn—those mesmerizing, sexy, beautiful roots. We all heard that bigger roots have bigger fruits. I know it’s not always the case, but I like big, solid roots.
In nutrition, I was a devoted follower of Aptus Holland before I got sponsored, and I could talk for hours about the benefits of their organic and mineral routines. In over 2.5 decades of growing, Aptus Holland has been the only nutrient line that truly brings out the authentic expression from my green companions without compromising flavors—a testament to my humble experience and opinion.
Special shout-outs are due to the breeders who entrust me with their genetics and a heartfelt appreciation for my growing community of followers and friends. You all are an integral part of this journey, and I am genuinely blessed to have you in my life.
You may have noticed the dog mask that always accompanies me on social media—it’s a nod to the obvious legal considerations. Despite the necessity, I’m not a shy person. I love engaging in conversations about this sacred plant that unites us all. Reach out on Instagram, Grow Diaries, or via email—I’m always open to connecting. I firmly believe in approaching life with an open heart, giving without expecting and having faith in ourselves. True love brings happiness, and by being a givers, the universe rewards us beyond imagination.
Once again, thank you for this incredible opportunity. Growers Love you all!
