So it's time to harvest Russian machine guns. The plants were high because we pulled them with a lamp and did not use LST. The final product was removed on the shelf of the refrigerator.00

๐Ÿ’œ 8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Week 13 Purple Haze by Zamnesia โ€“ Pheno A The Big Mama Has Officially Left The Golf Ball Era Behind ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ€โšพ๐Ÿ‰๐Ÿ”ฅ Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And... YES. She's still fucking enormous. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ Our Purple Haze Pheno A continues to make her presence known from her corner of the 8ร—8 jungle. You don't need to look for her. You don't need to ask: "Where's Purple Haze A?" She's basically standing there saying: "HELLO! I'M RIGHT HERE!" ๐Ÿ˜‚ She's big. She's beautiful. She's substantial. She's developing those absolutely ridiculous flowers. And honestly... the more I look at her, the more I love this girl. The orange tones developing through those pistils are becoming one of my favourite things about her. That contrast between the green foliage, the developing flowers and those increasingly orange hairs... Beautiful. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿงก๐ŸŒธ And the funniest part? I'm still doing basically nothing to her. She's doing the work. I'm just watching. ๐Ÿ˜‚ She has her space. She has her photons. She has her environment. She has her irrigation and nutrition. And apparently... that's enough for her to say: "Don't touch me. I've got this." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ So let's give this Big Mama the spotlight she deserves. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฅ WEEK 13 โ€“ THE BIG MAMA IS STILL HERE Purple Haze Pheno A continues to be one of the most noticeable plants in this entire room. And that's saying something. There are twelve plants in here. Twelve different personalities. Twelve different structures. Twelve different expressions. But this girl? She doesn't exactly blend into the background. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ She's big. She's present. She's filling her corner. She's carrying some seriously impressive flowering structures. And she's doing it beautifully. Looking at her this week, I keep coming back to one thought: "How are these flowers still getting bigger?" ๐Ÿ˜‚ Because honestly... they are. The plant continues to look substantial. The flowers continue to develop. The structure continues to become more impressive. And the overall appearance is becoming increasingly mature. But we're still watching the process. We're not calling her finished. We're not trying to predict exactly where she's going. We're simply documenting what she's showing us. And right now? She's showing us some seriously ginormous flowers. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ€โšพ๐Ÿ‰ THESE ARE NOT GOLF BALLS Let's get something straight. ๐Ÿ˜‚ These are not little golf-ball-style flowers. Not even close. We're way past that conversation. We're somewhere around: ๐Ÿ€ Basketball? No. โšพ Baseball? Getting closer. ๐Ÿ‰ Rugby ball? Now we're talking. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ And some of these flowers are starting to look like they're on their way toward the American-football conversation. I'm obviously exaggerating for fun... but only because the point is: THEY ARE NOT SMALL. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ This girl is not producing tiny little flower clusters and hoping nobody notices. She's producing substantial, heavily developed structures that immediately catch your eye. You look at her... and you know. This is Purple Haze Pheno A. The Big Mama. ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ SHE OWNS HER CORNER There are some plants that occupy space. And then there are plants that own space. Purple Haze Pheno A? She owns her corner. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’œ You can see her presence immediately. She's got the height. She's got the structure. She's got the flower mass. She's got that beautiful overall shape. And when you walk into the room, your eyes naturally find her. That's one of the things I love about following her individually. Her personality has become very clear. She's not trying to be the biggest plant in the room. She's simply being herself. And somehow... herself is fucking big. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿงก THE ORANGE PISTILS ARE STEALING MY ATTENTION One of my favourite things about this week's photographs is the colour developing in those pistils. The orange tones are becoming increasingly visible. And I absolutely love the contrast. That deep green foliage. The developing flowers. The increasingly frosty surfaces. And those beautiful orange hairs running through the floral structures. ๐Ÿงก๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’œ It gives the flowers a completely different character compared with the earlier weeks. Earlier on, everything was much fresher. Much brighter. Much whiter. Now we're seeing more variation. More colour. More maturity. More personality. And that's exactly what I want to document. Not just: "Here's a beautiful flower." But: "Here's how that flower changed." Week by week. Photograph by photograph. And Purple Haze Pheno A is giving us a beautiful progression to follow. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’Ž THE FLOWERS ARE DOING THE TALKING At this point, I really don't need to say much. The flowers are doing most of the talking. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒธ They're substantial. They're developing beautifully. They're becoming increasingly defined. They're carrying more visual weight. And when you get closer with the camera... you can see just how much detail is packed into them. This is one of those plants where the full-plant photograph tells one story... and the close-up tells another. From a distance: "That's a big plant." Closer: "That's a big flower." Even closer: "Jesus Christ, look at that." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ“ธ And that's the beauty of documenting the same plant every week. You get to watch the entire transformation. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’œ SHE'S STILL DOING HER THING And here's something I really want to emphasize. I'm not doing anything special to her this week. No dramatic intervention. No unnecessary manipulation. No trying to force her into a particular shape. Nothing. I'm letting her do whatever she has to do. And she's showing me what she has to show me. Healthy. Beautiful. Big. Frosty. Developing. And absolutely unmistakable. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ Sometimes the best thing a grower can do is simply stop trying to improve something that's already working. She's doing her job. So I'm doing mine. I'm watching. I'm documenting. I'm checking the environment. I'm paying attention. And I'm letting her write the next chapter. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ OBSERVATION OVER INTERVENTION This is becoming a recurring theme throughout the 8ร—8 Adventure. Earlier in the grow, there was plenty to do. Structure. Positioning. Training. Canopy management. Adjustments. Now? We're entering a very different part of the journey. The plants have established themselves. The structures are there. The flowers are there. And the best thing we can often do is observe. Look. Compare. Photograph. Learn. And only intervene when something actually requires it. Purple Haze Pheno A doesn't seem interested in asking for anything right now. She's too busy becoming enormous. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ So I'll let her. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ THE CAMERA IS LOVING HER And honestly... how could it not? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ’œ She's one of those plants that gives you something different every time you point the camera at her. Full plant. Main flowers. Side flowers. Close-ups. Different angles. Different lighting. And suddenly you realize: "Wait... THAT flower is huge too?" ๐Ÿ˜‚ That's what makes documenting her so much fun. She's not just producing one impressive structure. There are substantial flowers distributed throughout the plant. And the more you look... the more you find. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ˜€๏ธ SAME PHOTONS โ€“ DIFFERENT EXPRESSION And once again, this girl is doing all of this in the same environment as everybody else. The 8ร—8 continues with the expanded Future of Grow Black Series lighting setup. Two additional 600W fixtures were added to the room, giving us more available lighting capability and more control over how we use that capability. We're not simply running everything at maximum. We're controlling the output. Approximately: ๐Ÿ”Œ ~59% power from the plug With approximately: โ˜€๏ธ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. And Purple Haze Pheno A is sitting underneath those photons... doing exactly what Purple Haze Pheno A apparently wants to do. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œโ˜€๏ธ Build. Stack. Develop. Grow. And make enormous flowers. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ก MORE CAPABILITY โ€“ NOT MORE CHAOS One thing I really like about the lighting upgrade is that more capability doesn't mean we have to use everything at maximum. We have more headroom. More flexibility. More control. And that gives us the ability to operate the fixtures at a level that makes sense for the room rather than simply chasing maximum output. That's much more interesting to me. Because the goal isn't: "How much light can we throw at the plants?" The goal is: "How can we create a controlled lighting environment and observe how these different genetics respond?" And Purple Haze Pheno A is giving us one hell of an answer. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฌ SAME ROOM โ€“ DIFFERENT GENETIC EXPRESSION This is still the heart of the entire 8ร—8 Adventure. Twelve plants. One room. Same general environment. Same lighting philosophy. Same irrigation. Same nutritional foundation. Same 12/12 schedule. And... completely different plants. Some are slow. Some are fast. Some are compact. Some are huge. Some are building differently. Some are changing colour differently. Some are developing flowers differently. And Purple Haze Pheno A? She's one of our Big Mamas. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ She's showing us what her genetics want to do under these conditions. And I love that. Because we're not trying to make twelve identical plants. We're trying to see twelve different stories. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โš—๏ธ NUTRITION โ€“ LETTING HER FINISH HER WORK The room continues with the current flowering nutrition approach, with the nutritional programme being adjusted progressively as the plants move deeper into the cycle. The current foundation remains around: ๐ŸŒฑ Terra Bloom ๐ŸŒฑ Power Buds ๐ŸŒฑ Green Sensation ๐ŸŒฑ Sugar Royal with the room continuing around the current: โš—๏ธ pH ~6.0 โšก EC ~2.1 mS/cm The important part for me isn't simply looking at numbers on a chart. It's looking at the plant. And this girl? She's giving us a very clear response. She's growing. She's developing. She's building those flowers. She's maintaining beautiful colour. And she's continuing to look healthy. So we're observing rather than trying to invent something for her to do. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒก๏ธ THE ROOM KEEPS DOING ITS JOB The general 8ร—8 environment remains stable around the current setup: ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature: ~26.5ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature: ~26ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง RH: ~61% ๐ŸŒฑ Substrate temperature: ~25ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ฆ Nutrient solution: ~25ยฐC โš—๏ธ pH: ~6.0 โšก EC: ~2.1 mS/cm ๐Ÿ’จ COโ‚‚: ~693 ppm ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule: 12/12 ๐Ÿ’ง Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h ๐ŸŒฑ Pot size: 15 L โ˜€๏ธ Upper canopy: ~1,500 PPFD ๐Ÿ”Œ Future of Grow output: ~59% Same room. Same jungle. Same artificial sun. And one very happy-looking Purple Haze. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟโ˜€๏ธ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’Ž THE FROST CONTINUES TO BUILD And of course... we can't talk about this girl without mentioning the frost. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž The flowers continue looking increasingly decorated. The surfaces are becoming more visually complex. The closer photographs reveal more and more detail. And when you combine that with the orange pistils... wow. She's developing a really beautiful appearance. The colour combination is becoming one of my favourite parts of this phenotype. Deep greens. Frosty flowers. Orange pistils. Large floral structures. And that unmistakable Purple Haze character. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’Ž It's a beautiful combination. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ?๐Ÿงก SHARING THE MEDICINE WHILE SHE'S STILL GROWING And speaking of the flowers... I've also been enjoying sharing some of my white hash medicine from the room. Not from this girl yet. She's still standing there very much alive and very much unfinished. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ Her chapter hasn't reached that point. But eventually... she'll have her own place in that story too. And when the time comes, we'll talk about everything properly. The harvest. The flowers. The cure. The smoke. The aromas. The flavours. The effects. And all the details that deserve their own reports. For now? She's still in the room. Still growing. Still developing. Still making me stop and stare. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธ And that's exactly where I want her. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ NOT FINISHED โ€“ NOT EVEN CLOSE This is another thing I want to keep clear. The flowers may look enormous. They may already look extremely developed. But I'm not going to start declaring the end simply because they look impressive. She's still progressing. She's still changing. She's still developing. And there's still more story to come. The plant will tell us when she's entering the next chapter. Until then... we watch. We photograph. We learn. And we enjoy the show. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ THE BIG MAMA DOESN'T NEED HELP STEALING THE SPOTLIGHT Some plants need a little encouragement. Some need a little explanation. Some need you to point the camera in their direction. Purple Haze Pheno A? No. ๐Ÿ˜‚ She steals the spotlight herself. She's standing there in her corner like: "Are you finished talking about the other plants yet?" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ "No, no... come here. Look at THIS." And then you look. And... yeah. She's got a point. ๐Ÿ˜‚ She's beautiful. She's substantial. She's developing beautifully. And she's impossible to ignore. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฎ WHAT COMES NEXT? Honestly? I'm just curious. How much more will she build? How much more will those flowers develop? How will those orange pistils continue changing? How will the resin expression evolve? How will the overall plant mature? And when this girl finally reaches the end of her journey... what the hell are those flowers going to look like? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ I have no idea. And I'm perfectly happy with that. Because that's why we're documenting it. No need to guess. We'll see. Week by week. Photograph by photograph. Chapter by chapter. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ญ FINAL THOUGHTS โ€“ THE BIG MAMA IS STILL SHINING Week 13. And Purple Haze Pheno A continues to be one of the absolute characters of this room. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ”ฅ She's still ginormous. She's still beautiful. She's still impossible to miss. She's still occupying her corner like she owns the place. And those flowers? Well... I think we've officially left the golf-ball category behind. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ€โšพ๐Ÿ‰ She's moving into baseball. Maybe rugby. And she's looking suspiciously toward American football. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Jokes aside... the point is simple. These are not small flowers. This girl is not kidding. She's building some seriously substantial structures. And she's doing it while I'm barely touching her. I'm not trying to force her. I'm not trying to make her do anything. I'm simply letting her be Purple Haze Pheno A. And she's showing us exactly what that means. Healthy. Beautiful. Big. Frosty. Orange-haired. And completely herself. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿงก๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’Ž That's what I love about this project. The plants tell us who they are. We just have to pay attention. So keep doing your thing, Big Mama. Keep shining. Keep building. Keep showing us those ridiculous flowers. And when you're ready to show us what comes next... I'll be right here with the camera. ๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ Let's keep the photons flying. Let's keep documenting. Let's keep learning. And most importantly... let's let this girl shine. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’Žโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ™ THANK YOU As always, a massive thank you to everyone following the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document these individual journeys and share the process week after week. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Purple Haze genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore these different phenotypes under the same conditions. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden throughout this journey with the growing media and nutrition. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to test this expanded lighting setup inside the 8ร—8. More capability. More control. More photons. And twelve different plants showing us twelve completely different responses. Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light deeper into the canopy and allowing us to explore the garden as the three-dimensional environment it really is. And thank you to TrolMaster for helping monitor and manage the room behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following these girls week after week. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by. You're all part of this adventure. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Twelve plants. One room. One shared environment. And twelve completely different stories. Purple Haze Pheno A is writing hers with some seriously large letters. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ She's the Big Mama. She's the girl who owns her corner. She's the girl who keeps making enormous flowers. She's the girl whose orange pistils are becoming one of my favourite visual details. She's the girl who doesn't need me to do much because she's perfectly happy doing her own thing. And she's the girl who continues to make me stop, look and say: "Damn." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ So let's give her the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's keep the camera ready. Let's keep watching those flowers develop. And let's see where this beautiful girl takes us next. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’Žโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ‘‘ Growers Love, my friends. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Happy growing, take care everyone... and keep your eyes on the Big Mama. Because if she keeps going like this... we might need to invent a whole new category of flower size. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ€โšพ๐Ÿ‰๐Ÿ’œ See you next week in the 8ร—8 jungle. Where some girls take the scenic route... some girls cruise... and Purple Haze Pheno A? She's apparently trying to turn her corner into a professional sports arena. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ”ฅ See you next week!

Ever since I turned to mars hydro I have double sometimes nearly quadrupled my yields I first had with eBay lights (meh) I have never looked back since and gained so much respect from the community and the breeders too! And to hold the sponsors I do shows me that I am doing something right and I show appreciation to all who support! And thatโ€™s why I take a different effort to be fair and document you all! Even though Iโ€™m aware your businesses I just canโ€™t be bias when it comes to the greatest I think you all are! Thank you for choosing me! (No Iโ€™m not the only one) just showing the love back as best as I can! ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š thank you

Amnesia Skunk Auto ยท Week 12 From Seed The Zamnesia Way ๐ŸŒฟ Week 12 from seed, and the room is speaking clearly now. The pace has changed. The structure is set. The stretch is long behind us. What we are watching now is the final conversation between plant, soil, and time. This week marks a quiet but important shift: the feed is gone, the bottles are mostly out, and the room is moving into its last phase with little more than water and time. Not because the plant has stopped. Because it already has what it needs. โธป From Seed to Here This run was never about chasing size. It was about letting the plant express itself honestly. From the beginning, these Amnesia Skunk Autos stayed compact, controlled, and efficient. Not the tallest in the room. Not the loudest in stretch. But from early on, they showed exactly what they wanted to be: short internodes, dense flower sites, tight stacking, and a natural tendency to build weight instead of height. That is the shape of this plant. And now, in late flower, that early structure is paying itself back. The canopy stayed manageable. The frame stayed compact. And all that energy went where it matters now โ€” into resin, density, and flower mass. This is why reading plant structure early matters. Not every plant wants to become a tower. Some would rather become stone. And that is exactly what these did. โธป Week 12 โ€” What Is Changing Now This week the room shifts gears. The bulk is mostly built. The flowers are set. The plant is no longer trying to produce more structure โ€” now it is finishing what it already made. And that changes everything. The metabolism slows. Water demand begins to taper. Nutrient demand drops. Uptake changes. The plant becomes less interested in growth and more interested in completion. That is where we are now. So this week we simplify. Less input. Less interference. Less feeding. More observation. Because late flower is not the time to force more. It is the time to let the plant finish speaking. โธป Why We Moved to Water Only (And Why Pure Zym Stays) This week the nutrient stack is stripped back and the room moves into water-only irrigation, with one exception: Pure Zym. That is intentional. At this stage, the plant is no longer asking for aggressive nutrition. It is asking for access. And that is what enzymes help provide. Pure Zym stays in because the soil is still alive. Even when bottles are reduced, the medium is not โ€œempty.โ€ It is still biologically active. Still processing. Still cycling. Still breaking down what remains. That matters now more than people think. The plant may be drinking less feed, but the soil is still working. And enzymes help keep that system moving by supporting the breakdown of leftover organic material, dead root matter, and residual compounds in the medium โ€” making them easier for microbial life to process and easier for the plant to access in its final phase. In simple terms: we are not feeding the bottle anymore. we are feeding the biology that is still feeding the plant. And because this soil will be reused afterward, keeping that microbial life active matters beyond harvest too. The run does not end at chop. The soil keeps going. What is left behind in this pot will not be waste. It will be recycled into the next life โ€” broken down, reprocessed, and eventually returned to the garden again. That is part of the system too. โธป The Plant Right Now This is where the room gets beautiful. The greens are beginning to deepen. Pigments are shifting. Leaf tone is changing. The flowers are darkening. The plant is beginning to wear its finish. And with that comes the real reward of late flower: resin. Trichome production is immense now. Heads are fully formed. Coverage is heavy. Resin has moved beyond the sugar leaves and deep into the flower surface itself. The frost is no longer just visual. It has texture now. Density now. Presence now. And the flowers are following the same pattern. Dense. Compact. Heavy for their size. Not oversized plants โ€” but plants that pack. That is one of the most satisfying expressions in the room: small frame, serious output. No wasted motion. No wasted energy. Just compact plants doing exactly what they were built to do. โธป Conditions Stay the Same Because the Plants Say So Room conditions remain stable and largely unchanged. Nothing dramatic. No late flower panic. No chasing numbers for the sake of numbers. The room is still run by plant response first. Leaf behavior. Water use. Transpiration. Posture. Response. That remains the real metric. The environmental numbers matter, of course โ€” but only in context. And right now, the context is simple: the leaves are relaxed, the flowers are building, the resin is pushing, and the room is balanced. So we stay steady. No need to force a correction where the plant is already in agreement. โธป What to Expect Next (And What Not to Rush) Now we wait and watch. The finish line is visible, but this is still the part where patience matters most. Over the next stretch, expect: * deeper fade * continued pigment shift * slower water uptake * final calyx swell * heavier resin maturity * stronger aroma expression * less vertical movement, more flower completion What not to expect: * explosive new growth * major swelling overnight * dramatic structural change * a miracle in the final days That part is done. Now it is refinement. Maturity. Completion. Harvest may come next week. It may come the week after. The plant will decide that, not the calendar. And late flower always rewards the grower who waits one more day for the right reason. โธป Gratitude A run like this is never built alone. Respect to the genetics from Zamnesia. Respect to Plagron for keeping the root zone moving. Respect to the LEDs for carrying the room from start to finish. Respect to the platform for giving growers a place to document honestly. Respect to everyone following quietly, watching closely, learning, questioning, supporting. To the day ones. To the new ones. To the growers. To the lurkers. To the lovers. To the skeptics.

Photography is part of the story โ€” itโ€™s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words canโ€™t always capture. Iโ€™ve also started experimenting with photo stacking โ€” 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. Itโ€™s not digital enhancement or AI; itโ€™s pure photography โ€” a way to reveal the plantโ€™s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. Youโ€™ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots โ€” camera, lens, setup โ€” because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Everything is going to plan so far, at the end of week 4 I will be flipping the lights to 12/12 because the gelatos will be ready for it, but the Og is a little bit behind but Iโ€™m sure it will catch up with them in the stretch. Day 26 - just switched the lights this morning 12/12 as itโ€™s about time imo as the gelatos are getting big I donโ€™t have the time or space to let them veg on so the Og could catch up, so Iโ€™m gonna hope that during the stretch it does.

Nรคchste Woche, nรคchstes Glรผck ๐Ÿ€ Mit 34 cm ist die Mimosa fรผr mich groรŸ genug, um Sie in die Blรผte zu leiten. Sie wรคchst stabil nach oben und das Topping hat sie nicht wirklich gestรถrt. Mittlerweile ist ein krรคftiger Duft wahrnehmbar und ich hoffe, ich bekomme verstรคrkt das Zitrusterpene ab. Update Ich habe mich vor zwei Tagen dazu entschlossen ein Netz zu integrieren, um den Hรถhenunterschied zwischen den Damen anzugleichen.

Bud structure nothing like Iโ€™ve ever seen before, looking healthy And frosty though. Looks close to being ready too, will be checking the trichomes. Itโ€™s showing a super high caylax to leaf ratio. Phenotype? Not sure. Next to no nutrients during this grow.

We're starting to make some progress, leaves are looking good. Gaining some decent height, not too much. I'm probably going to top her, so I'm keeping an eye on the optimal time to do that. This week, I did not water, as the soil was sufficiently hydrated. So not much to report here! Thank you for stopping by this week and hanging out! ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ’šโœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿ˜Š

Well hello there ๐Ÿ‘‹ thanks for stopping by and joining this journey of my White Widow grow! ๐Ÿ’ฏ So to begin the week I was thinking....should I screw with this lovely girl or shouldn't I....?!?!?! Weeelllllllllll..... I just could not resist and dove right in lmao!!! Now in the new pictures for the week I really hope I've done my research and try and look for documentation about "LEAF LINING" and I am pretty sure there has been no terminology about it so I'm sure there will be critics and I look forward to your knowledge towards this training method for similarities....๐Ÿ’ฏ MOVING ON ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ Alright here we go.... so the beginning of the week I measured her at 8inchs. She grew a good 2.5 inches in 5 days so I had to top this girl because of height issues in the tent. I ultimately feel this was the absolute best thing for my height and the plant! ๐Ÿ’ฏ and I 100% do not want to kick her early!!!! Now she's grown an 1inch since topping her 2 days ago and the prizes inside are flourishing and are growing like wild fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ What until you see them ๐Ÿคฏ So what I have done to the inside this week is what I like to call "LEAF LINING" I basically pin the shoots created by the fan leaves to the actual fan leaf itself!!!! I know right ๐Ÿคฏ This has proven to be very effective which you can see the length of the shoots themselves. (some are 3.5inchs long) The stock of the fan leaves provide a straight path for growth outward! Its truly fascinating! (PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THIS HAS TERMINOLOGY OR NOT) Ok so I have introduced a new idea to the grow! Adding a Ring of 4 rows of wire that are attached in a circle to the top of the self-wick pot. I have fastened it using Zip ties as I did for the "LEAF LINING" ๐Ÿ‘ˆ๐Ÿคช This was introduced for when those shoots grow out with the fan leaves as the fan leaf can no longer be of support at some point. Cant wait for that to happen. This is going be a wild ride growmies and growmettes!!!! I will continue to show you guys and gals thorough pictures of my training methods moving forward cause I think your going to start to see growers use this method ๐Ÿคž Thanks for stopping by and I really appreciate the love and support that comes from the great community of growers on grow diaries!!! Love you all!!! ๐Ÿ‘Š hey guys and gals! Posted alittlw video so you can get to know me ๐Ÿ˜†
