Day 8 - watered with 20 ml of water and prepared the vase for the transplant, used 10% expanded clay on the bottom of the vase, 20% of my own worm humus and 70% Carolina Soil(Turfa and Vermiculite). Day 9 - Pre watered the new soil with 700 ml of water and 4 ml of my own fertilizer and transplanted. Day 10 - nothing Day 11 - nothing Day 12 - nothing Day 13 - watered 700 ml + 4 ml my own fertilizer Day 14 - nothing

Alright all, it's been awhile since I've been able to update so I have a couple weeks to catch up on. Unfortunately my cheap phone was having issues last week and I had to do a deep clean and got rid of some photos, photos I though I'd uploaded to my drive that I actually hadn't. I seriously could have kicked myself. But thankfully I at least have a video instead of nothing. So on August 1st I got some spent hardwood substrate blocks from a mushroom farmer down the road. I crumbled the blocks around the base of each plant and watered them in. The purpose of putting the blocks down is that they still have live mycelium in them, and the mycelium creates a symbiotic relationship with the cannabis plant and it's root structure. The cannabis roots can only take up so much surface area, but the mycelium can take up the space the roots do not and form a network where in exchange for sugars the mycelium will provide nutrients for the cannabis plants. Also, watering with the molasses gives the mycelium the sugars it wants. I'm sorry I don't have more pictures, I wasn't even thinking when I was cleaning up my phone because I was so frustrated with it (there's a reason LG stopped making phones recently). It's just been wayyyyyyyy more busy than I expected or wanted it to and I've had hardly any time in the garden. It's all this rain! Last year I was complaining about how there wasn't enough rain, now this year there's plenty of it. When I'm not doing Garden stuff I'm working part time with my husband doing landscaping and tree work, which includes mowing lawns. Last year with the drought we were mowing lawns maybe every 2 weeks. This year it's every 4-5 days. It's crazy.

Pour cette première semaine, je suis passé de 520 a 800w COBB/SMD Cree. Pousses fortes, stretching rapide. Je SCROG 2 fois par jour cette semaine. Je suis passé en plus du complexe de floraison Hesi, Supervit Hesi au BubblezymV2 Platinium et Atami B'Cuzz pour renforcer le système racinaire, accélérer l'absorption des nutriments, un développement uniforme sur la canopée, gonflement des bourgeons et prise de poids.

De jolie couleur violette et la tête devienne très grosse mais pas beaucoup dense

Plein de trichs mademoiselle a pris un coups de froid volontaire.

Xpert a+b . 1 bleuberry is getting brown leave tips . Yellow leaves . Think its a combi . Too much heat and too much fertilizer. Put led down and up in height . And put extra fan in tent . Ventilation on higher speed also . Everything on high power now to keep it cooler . But not 100% sure if i got it correct . So next step is flushing that 1 plant too make sure the soil is not full with salt . 🤔. Compact bleuberry i already started flushing with only water . Think in 10 days its ready for harvest . Shame it was looking so good for so long but now when its olmost ready its showing some signs off stress . Hope i make correct choice in how to keep it good . Im just want time to pass soo the plant got no time to go bad haha . 🙃 Enjoy the learning curve . But hard to learn something if nobody is telling you something about it . But it will be fine i quess . I just keep my eyes open and go flush the plant to make sure i delete 1 problem . Heat i delt with already . So i just hope i make right decision 🙏.

July 26: Mimosa Shot has mostly caught up to the other plant in the wagon and they are now the same height. Did a fourth lazy compost tea. See video explaining how I make it using things like blackstrap molasses and Epsom salts both of which are cheap and easy to find at the grocery store.

Room continues to pump out growth. HEat and humidity were an issue this week, but was managed with multiple garden visits and some air diversion. Extremely impresed with all genetics in the garden and there has not been any growth issues to date. 5 weeks complete, another 5 more to smoke. Thanks for following.

💜 Purple CousKush Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 11 ✨ Still a Glamorous Girl — Frosty, Fading & Possibly Entering Her Final Chapter Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And honestly... there isn't a huge amount to say this week. And I mean that as a compliment. 😂💜 Purple CousKush Pheno A is still doing exactly what she has been doing so beautifully: Growing. Flowering. Frosting. And looking absolutely fucking gorgeous. She's still a glamorous plant. Actually... the frost levels on this girl are getting a little ridiculous. ❄️💜✨ At this stage of the adventure, most of the plants are essentially in auto mode. They're doing their thing. They're following their own rhythm. They're developing their flowers. And we're not trying to constantly interfere with that process. There's no major training. No major reshaping. No unnecessary intervention. We observe. We maintain. We provide. And we let the plants finish their stories. And Purple CousKush? She may be starting to tell us that her story is getting close to the final chapters. 🌸 ──────────────────────── 🌱 The 8×8 Adventure — When the Plants Start Writing the Ending For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure. The concept is simple: Twelve different plants. One room. Essentially the same environment. Same general lighting strategy. Same 12/12 schedule. Same irrigation philosophy. Same nutritional program. Same grower. But different genetics. Different phenotypes. Different expressions. Different rhythms. And now we're reaching one of the most interesting parts of the experiment. The plants are starting to show us not only who they are... but how they want to finish. Some are still pushing hard. Some are still developing. Some are moving faster. Some are moving slower. And some are starting to say: "Okay... I think I'm getting ready to leave." 😂 Purple CousKush Pheno A appears to be one of those girls. ──────────────────────── 💜 The Glamour Girl Is Still Shining Last week I called her glamorous. This week? The title still fits perfectly. She's beautiful. She's balanced. She's elegant. And she's absolutely covered in frost. ❄️❄️❄️ Honestly... the resin production on this girl is becoming one of the first things I notice when I look at her. You don't have to search for it. You don't have to wonder whether she's getting frosty. She's basically announcing it. 😂💜 The flowers have that sparkling appearance that makes you want to get closer and closer with the camera. And the closer you get... the crazier it becomes. Trichomes everywhere. Resin-covered surfaces. Beautiful flowering structures. Tiny details catching the light. This is one seriously frosty girl. And I absolutely love it. ──────────────────────── ❄️ Frost Levels: Completely Ridiculous Let's just give this its own section. Because... wow. 😂❄️💜 The frost on Purple CousKush Pheno A is absolutely out of this world. She's reaching that stage where the flowers almost stop looking like they're simply covered in resin... and start looking like the resin is part of the flower itself. Every angle seems to reveal another layer. And this is exactly why I love having the camera around during this stage. The naked eye sees a beautiful flowering plant. The macro lens says: "Hold my beer." 😂📸❄️ Suddenly you see an entire world of tiny structures. Trichomes. Resin. Pistils. Calyxes. Sugar leaves. Texture. Light reflecting off everything. And Purple CousKush is giving us plenty to photograph. ──────────────────────── 🌸 The Flowers Are Looking More Mature The flowers themselves are continuing to develop nicely. They're established now. We're well beyond the stage of wondering what the plant is going to look like. She's showing us. And she's showing us beautifully. The structures are substantial. The flower sites are well defined. The resin is heavy. And there's a clear sense that the plant is moving toward maturity. This is one of those stages where the changes from week to week can become more subtle. We're not necessarily looking for dramatic new growth anymore. We're watching for refinement. Maturation. Density. Resin. Colour. And those little signs that tell us the plant is moving toward the end of her journey. And this girl has started giving us one of those signs. ──────────────────────── 🍂 She's Starting to Fade This is probably the biggest change I'm seeing this week. Purple CousKush Pheno A has started fading. And honestly? I was expecting it sooner or later. She's beginning to show those visual signs that she's moving into a later stage of flower. And that's what makes me think she may be approaching her final run. Not necessarily tomorrow. Not necessarily next week. I'm not putting a date on it. But she's definitely giving me the impression that she's beginning to wind things down. She's basically saying: "I've done a lot of work here. I might be getting ready to clock out." 😂💜 And I'm listening. ──────────────────────── 🌱 The Final Stage Is Starting to Show One of the things I enjoy about growing is that plants don't always need to tell you exactly what's happening. Sometimes they simply show you. The overall appearance changes. The foliage begins to fade. The flowers look increasingly mature. The plant's energy seems to shift. And eventually you start seeing a very different version of the plant compared with the one you met earlier in the run. That's what I'm beginning to see here. Purple CousKush isn't looking unhealthy. She's looking like a flowering plant approaching the later part of her journey. There's a difference. And it's an important one. So for now... we observe. We don't panic. We don't start making unnecessary changes just because the leaves are changing colour. We simply acknowledge what the plant is showing us. And this girl is showing us: "Final chapter may be coming." 💜🌸 ──────────────────────── 💧 Nutrition — We May Be Getting Close The room is still following the same nutritional strategy. The current program remains: 🌸 Plagron Terra Bloom — 2.3 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L ✨ Plagron Green Sensation — 1 ml/L 🍯 Plagron Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH adjustment as required Current solution strength: ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm But... because Purple CousKush is already showing signs of entering this later stage, I'm starting to think about the next step. I may begin reducing the nutritional intensity next week. Possibly for her. Possibly across the room, depending on how the other girls are progressing. I'm not making that decision yet. And that's intentional. We're watching the plants first. Then we'll decide. That's one of the nice things about having twelve individual diaries. Each phenotype can tell us something slightly different. And Purple CousKush is definitely starting to tell us something. ──────────────────────── 💡 Still Under the Same Sun The lighting environment remains the same. The Future of Grow Black Series LEDs continue providing the main overhead lighting, with the additional fixtures now part of the upgraded lighting setup. We've already adjusted the output to approximately 59% from the plug after adding the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures. We're working around: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with intensity naturally changing according to plant height and position. And Purple CousKush continues making absolutely beautiful use of those photons. She's not suddenly changing her architecture. She's not trying to stretch. She's simply continuing to finish what she started. And under that lighting... the frost is looking spectacular. ❄️💜✨ A huge thank you again to Future of Grow for supplying the additional fixtures for us to test during this adventure. Having the additional lighting capacity has been a really interesting part of this experiment. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Same Room. Same Conditions. Different Ending Signals. This is another part of the 8×8 Adventure that I find fascinating. The room is the same. The general environment is the same. The lighting is the same. The nutrition is the same. The irrigation philosophy is the same. And yet... the plants don't necessarily reach the same stage at the same time. Purple CousKush is showing us signs that she's beginning to wind down. Another plant might still be charging ahead. Another might be somewhere comfortably in between. And that's exactly what we wanted to see. The environment gives them the opportunity. The genetics and individual plants tell us how they use it. Purple CousKush Pheno A is apparently saying: "I've got my flowers. I've got my frost. I've had my fun. Maybe it's almost time." 😂💜 ──────────────────────── ✂️ And Still... Nothing Major to Do At this point, there really isn't much for me to do physically. And that's okay. The structure is established. The flowers are formed. The plant is progressing. The fading has begun. So we're not going to start inventing work. No unnecessary defoliation. No dramatic reshaping. No last-minute gymnastics. 😂 She's doing what she needs to do. Our job now is mostly observation and maintaining consistency. Sometimes the best grow diary update is: "I didn't touch her. She looked amazing. Next." 😂💜 ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Week 11 Conditions The overall room conditions remain consistent with the latest 8×8 setup: 🌸 Flowering: Week 11 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 💡 Future of Grow Black Series LEDs: upgraded setup 💡 Approx. power after adjustment: ~59% from the plug ☀️ Upper-canopy PPFD: ~1,500 🌡️ Day temperature: ~26.5°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~26°C 💧 Relative humidity: ~61% ⚗️ pH: ~6.02 ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: ~25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~25°C 🌬️ CO₂: ~693 ppm 🌱 Pot size: 15 L 💦 Irrigation: ~1.45 L per plant / 24h Same room. Same environment. Same lighting evolution. Same nutritional evolution. And a plant beginning to show her own timing. ──────────────────────── 🔬 This Is Why Individual Diaries Matter If you only looked at the entire room, you might simply say: "Week 11. They're flowering." But when you follow each phenotype individually... you see much more. Purple CousKush Pheno A is telling a different story. She's a glamorous, medium-sized plant. Beautifully structured. Extremely frosty. And now beginning to fade. That's information. That's part of the experiment. And that's why I love documenting these girls individually. Because the room gives us the broad picture... but each plant gives us the details. And Purple CousKush has some very beautiful details. ──────────────────────── 📸 This Girl Was Made for Macro Honestly... the frost alone makes her worth putting in front of the camera. 😂📸❄️ The full-plant photographs show the architecture. The closer shots show the flowers. And the macro photographs? That's where she really starts showing off. The resin. The trichomes. The textures. The little details that you simply cannot appreciate from across the room. Purple CousKush Pheno A is one of those plants where the camera keeps making me stop and look. And every time I zoom in... there's another layer. Another sparkling surface. Another beautiful little structure. Another reminder of just how incredible flowering plants can be. ──────────────────────── 💜 A Glamorous Girl Approaching Her Goodbye There's something slightly bittersweet about this stage. Because when you start noticing a plant entering her final stretch... you realize the journey you've been following for weeks is eventually going to end. We've watched her grow. We've watched her develop. We've watched the flowers appear. We've watched the frost build. We've watched her become what she is now. And now... we may be approaching the final chapter. But we're not rushing it. Absolutely not. We'll let her tell us when she's ready. For now, she's still shining. Still beautiful. Still absolutely covered in frost. And still giving us plenty to enjoy. 💜❄️✨ ──────────────────────── 🔭 Looking Ahead So what happens next? Honestly... we'll see. 😂 I'm keeping an eye on the fading. I'm watching the flowers. I'm watching the overall maturity. And I'm considering whether next week will be the moment to begin reducing the nutritional input for her, or whether the room as a whole will be ready for that transition. No rush. No forced schedule. No arbitrary finish line. The plants will tell us. And Purple CousKush is already starting to speak. She's saying: "I'm getting close." So we'll listen. ──────────────────────── ✨ Final Thoughts — Let This Glamorous Girl Shine Week 11. And Purple CousKush Pheno A is still absolutely beautiful. Honestly... she doesn't need a complicated report this week. She's a glamour of a plant. 💜✨ She's frosty beyond reason. She's beautifully structured. She's progressing. She's beginning to fade. And she's potentially entering the final stage of her journey. That's really the story. The room is in auto mode. The plants are doing their thing. We're not forcing anything. We're not constantly touching them. We're simply watching them mature. And this girl? She's starting to show us that she may be getting ready for her final chapter. Maybe next week we'll see more. Maybe the fading will progress. Maybe she'll tell us even more clearly that she's ready. We'll see. But for now... I'm just enjoying her. Looking at her flowers. Looking at that ridiculous frost. Taking photographs. And thinking: "Damn... you're beautiful." 😂💜❄️ That's Purple CousKush Pheno A. No drama. No complaints. Just a glamorous girl doing exactly what she wants to do. And now... possibly getting ready to say goodbye. But not quite yet. There's still a little more story to write. So let's give her the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's appreciate this beautiful phenotype for exactly what she is. Frosty. Elegant. Beautiful. And possibly entering the final stretch. 💜🌸❄️✨ Keep shining, Purple CousKush. You've earned every bit of that spotlight. ──────────────────────── 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document this 8×8 Adventure and follow these individual phenotypes through every stage of their journey. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Purple CousKush genetics behind this beautiful girl. 💜🌸 Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of the adventure. Thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting and for supplying the additional fixtures we're now testing in the room. 💡🙏 Thank you to Lumiflora for adding another lighting dimension deeper into the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment under control behind the scenes. And of course... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every photograph. Every week. It all becomes part of the story. And Purple CousKush Pheno A has given us a beautiful one. From her early development... to her balanced structure... to her glamorous flowering... to this absolutely ridiculous frost... and now, perhaps, the beginning of her final chapter. She's still shining. She's still beautiful. And she's still very much worth watching. 💜❄️🌸✨ So let's give this glamorous girl the spotlight she deserves. Let's see what she has left to show us. And let's enjoy every last bit of it. Growers Love & Happy Growing! 🌱💚💜

Hello growers, Welcome back for vegetative week 14 of the Pineapple Upside Down from Humboldt. This week was clearly a difficult one. The plant is still growing, but something was off. The overall development slowed down, and the lack of vigor became more noticeable compared to previous weeks. After checking all the usual parameters, the issue finally became clear. The reservoir pH was perfectly stable, sitting in the correct range around 5.7–5.9. However, the real problem was happening in the tray. The nutrient solution was sitting there for too long, and the pH was drifting significantly, reaching around 6.8. This caused the coco substrate to buffer at the wrong pH level, leading to a partial nutrient lockout. Since the plant wasn’t drinking enough, the solution had time to degrade and shift, which is one of the limitations of the Autopot system when the plant is not actively feeding. To correct the situation, I decided to fully reset the system. A complete flush was performed using FlashClean from Terra Aquatica, with a very low EC and a pH adjusted to around 5.5. The goal was to clean the substrate and remove any accumulated imbalance. After the flush, the system was left to drain and stabilize over the weekend. I then restarted feeding manually with a much more controlled approach. Instead of letting the tray stay filled, I used small amounts of nutrient solution at pH 5.7 and EC 1.7, allowing the coco to absorb it before removing any remaining liquid to avoid stagnation. The objective is to progressively bring the substrate back into the correct pH range and restore proper nutrient uptake. This method will be maintained throughout the week to observe how the plant reacts. If the plant shows a strong recovery and regains vigor, the Autopot system will be reactivated. Otherwise, manual control will remain in place. I also performed a light defoliation and cleanup, removing lower growth and excess foliage to improve airflow and light penetration. At this stage, the situation is under control, but the outcome will depend on how the plant responds over the next few days. The next update will be important to confirm whether this recovery strategy was effective. Alright growers, take care and see you next week.

Erste Blütewoche: Tag 55: Ich spreche quasi aus der Zukunft weil ich recht wenig Zeit hatte in den letzten drei Wochen…aber es wird wild 😝 wir sind aus dem Urlaub zurück und die Pflanzen waren gut 65cm groß, höchste Zeit für den 12/12 Switch! Und natürlich je 4l Wasser für jede Pflanze mit ph 6.2 und 1ml/l Calmag Agent. Ab jetzt heißt es erstmal die Pflanzen in Ruhe zu lassen und die Beleuchtung der Lampe auf 270w von oben und 40w von unten, um das Defizit von 6 Stunden auszugleichen und evtl den krassen Stretch zu reduzieren. Tag 56: heute 3l Wasser mit ph 6.1 und 0,5ml/l calmag agent (2von unten 1 von oben) Tag 57: heute 2l Wasser mit ph 6.2 von unten Tag 58: heute mal Ruhe 😊 Tag 59: 4l Wasser mit ph 6.2 und 0,5ml/l Calmag Agent (3 von unten 1 von oben) Tag 60: tote Blätter abgepult und weggesammelt Tag 61: 4l ph 6.1 von unten pro Pflanze Ende Blütewoche 1

She starts to drink a lot now , final week stretch then she goes full flower

° Esta semana se observa ligero avance en las plantas al alejar el foco LED, y además al regar se aplica 1 litro de agua con fertilizantes, en razón 2 ml / 1 litro, agua de riego con PH 5.9 ° Se mantiene T° media de aproximadamente 16°C por el invierno y aproximadamente 55% de humedad media ° Se cambia ciclo de luz a 20/4 ° Se sube video para concursar en tiktok fast buds

I've been pulling fan leaves this week . 1. To slow the top down . 2. To encourage side branch growth. 3. So they can remain in very small pots in a small space until I have space to let them grow properly.

loving the week past as flowers have started smelling so dank unbelievable smells of candyland, can literally smell the fruitiness spewing off it, it's so crazy alongside some pure tropicalness.... got a new camera so got high quality pics for you all

This young lady does not end up amazing me. Although she is perhaps the last born or almost she is the highest, the healthiest and perhaps the most beautiful of the Grow. Mark this strain The boys of Zamnesia do not joke at all and the Blueberry that seems to have to pass like a classic almost muted, breaking. I don't know if the Grow is enough. Top.
