Hello to all , Do-si-do's are going well #1 is 21 days old , the others around 15 days old. #2 was a bit mutated (leaves) but is coming back. Upgraded to a Mars Hydro Fce 4800, a very nice light ,good build quality, great coverage . Start Lst this week, increased nutes & feeding, every 2 hours for 15 minutes. Till next week Gromie's rock on🤙🤪🤘

I am not sure what the deal is with the Chibans. They look mutant to me maybe due to pollination. There is so much crystal forming up on them and they still look beautiful. Plant 1 is huge with big colas that are fragrant and very very sticky to the touch. Plant 2 looks the most normal as far as bud structure to me. She has not got the same flattened of tops but instead are more cone like . Also very very crystal heavy Clones 1 and 2 look like monsters to me. Their buds are bulbous and fat with a very flat round top and quite a bit larger then golf balls! I have never seen bud look like this but then I have never had pollination issues and watched the plants quite as much as I am at the moment. We will keep going with them and see what we get. I hope for some smokable bud and also some Sherbert banana seeds maybe🤪👍👍. Thanks for looking. Stay safe. Grow well.🌱🌱

I'm very happy with how my plants turned out and can't wait to get going again. They're now hanging in my tent so hopefully dried and ready to trim by Christmas day at the latest. I will update on weight when dried and on the smoke when cured.

🦄🌿 Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B Week 14 – The Dark Little Unicorn Has Left the Tent… Big Mama's Next Chapter Awaits! 🦄👑💎❄️ Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And here we are again, my friends… Another Frosted Guava has left the building! 😂🦄✂️ Last time, we said goodbye to her sister, Frosted Guava Pheno A, as she left the tent and started her post-harvest journey. And now? It's Pheno B's turn. Our dark little unicorn. Our frosty girl. Our beautiful Big Mama. 👑💎🌿 Because yes, this girl has her own personality, her own structure, and her own story. And although the two sisters share some similarities, they certainly haven't been identical throughout this adventure. Same genetic family. Same room. Same general environment. Same 12/12 journey from seed. But two different seeds, two different expressions, and two beautiful girls who have given us plenty to appreciate. And now, just like her sister, Pheno B has completed her time in the tent. We took her final photographs in the grow room, moved her into the studio, photographed individual branches and flowers, explored some macro details, and created more photo stacks. Then we broke her down, removed the leaves we wanted to take off, vacuum-bagged the material, and placed it in the freezer. ❄️🌿📸 That's where she is now. Resting. Waiting for the next chapter. And that next chapter will involve processing the frozen material into bubble hash. We'll document that process in future updates, explain what we're doing, and share what happens after the extraction. But we're not going to jump ahead. Today is about Frosted Guava Pheno B, her journey, her harvest day, her photographs, and the beginning of this new chapter. So let's give Big Mama the spotlight she deserves! 🦄👑💚 ──────────────────────── 📢 FIRST THINGS FIRST – WHY ARE WE PUTTING HARVEST DAY IN A FLOWERING WEEK? Before we get into the photographs, let's explain why we're documenting another harvest under a flowering-week update. I know some of you might look at the diary and think: "Hang on a minute… isn't this a harvest report?" 😂 Yes, my friends. It is harvest day. But GrowDiaries has a limit of 30 photographs per update, and when you're documenting an entire harvest journey, those photographs disappear very quickly. We have the final photographs inside the tent. We have the studio session. We have individual branches and flower details. We have macro photography. We have photo stacks. We have the breakdown and trimming. We have the vacuum-bagging process. And we still have the extraction and everything that follows to document. That's a lot of material to squeeze into one update! So, just as we did with her sister, we're using this flowering-week entry to document the final day in the tent and the beginning of her post-harvest journey. This is an individual diary, and we want to keep her story together as clearly as possible. GrowDiaries doesn't provide a dedicated section specifically for extraction projects, so we'll use the available diary updates to document the different stages without pretending that everything happened in one day or one chapter. Depending on how much material we have, we'll continue in another update or updates. The extraction itself will have its own explanation, and we'll share the results when we actually have them. So please consider this the beginning of Big Mama's post-harvest story, not the final report. Thank you for understanding, everyone! 💚🌱 ──────────────────────── 🌱 A QUICK RECAP – THE 12/12 JOURNEY Let's rewind for a moment. Frosted Guava Auto Pheno B has been part of our 8×8 Adventure, where we've been following different plants and phenotypes sharing the same general environment. And one of the most interesting parts of this project has been watching how differently plants can express themselves under a shared setup. We started these plants from seed under a 12/12 light schedule. That means we've been observing their development from the beginning under the same daily light-and-dark rhythm, rather than changing to a conventional longer vegetative schedule before flowering. And the autoflowers? Well… They've certainly given us plenty to talk about! 😂🌿 Throughout this run, we've watched the plants develop at their own pace, build their own structures, and show their own personalities. Frosted Guava Pheno B became one of our more distinctive girls. Her darker green character, beautiful flowers, frost, and unusual flowering structures made her increasingly recognizable as the weeks went by. And, of course, her sister was showing some similar foxtailing characteristics. That doesn't prove a specific genetic explanation by itself, but it gave us an interesting pattern to observe in this shared environment. Two sisters. Two individual expressions. And plenty of reasons to keep looking closely. That's what I love about this adventure. We aren't trying to make every plant look the same. We're documenting what each one becomes. And now, Big Mama has reached the end of her flowering journey. 🦄💎🌸 ──────────────────────── 👑 BIG MAMA HAS LEFT THE TENT Let's be honest… This girl earned her nickname. 😂👑 Big Mama! She has been a beautiful presence in the room, and although she shares a genetic family with Pheno A, she's developed her own character along the way. The flowering journey is now complete for this plant. We took our last photographs of her inside the tent, documenting her where she'd spent her time growing alongside the rest of the 8×8 girls. Those photographs matter because they preserve the final view of the plant in her original environment. Once a plant is harvested, the structure changes. The branches are separated. The flowers are handled individually. The grow-room chapter ends, and the post-harvest chapter begins. So before doing anything else, I wanted to capture that transition. One last look at Big Mama in the tent. One last photographic record of the plant as a whole. And then… It was time to move her into the studio. 📸🌿 ──────────────────────── 📸 STUDIO TIME – GIVING BIG MAMA HER MOMENT After documenting her final day in the tent, we took Frosted Guava Pheno B into the studio. And this is where I get to enjoy another side of the whole adventure. Photography! 😂📸💚 I love documenting plants while they're growing, but the studio gives us another opportunity to explore their details. We took photographs of the plant and selected branches. We photographed individual flowers from different angles. We explored the details more closely. And, of course, we spent time creating photo stacks. Because I don't want to remember Big Mama only as a plant that stood in the tent. I want to preserve the details that made her interesting. Her structure. Her flowers. Her individual characteristics. The way she looked at the end of her flowering journey. And those photographs will become part of her permanent diary record. The grow tells us how she developed. The photographs help us look back and appreciate what she became. And for me, that's a beautiful combination. 🌿📸👑 ──────────────────────── 🔬 MACRO PHOTOGRAPHY – GETTING CLOSER Some of the photographs from this session focus on individual flowers and smaller details. And that's where things become especially interesting for me. From a distance, you see the overall plant. Move closer, and you start noticing the individual flower structures. Get closer still, and there are details that can be easy to overlook when you're simply looking at the plant in the tent. That's one of the reasons I enjoy macro photography and stacking. It gives me a way to study and document the subject more closely. And Frosted Guava Pheno B has certainly given us something worth exploring. 🦄🌸🔬 I also enjoy the creative side of the process. The lighting. The angles. The background. The focus. The way a small change in position can completely change how a flower looks in the final photograph. It's a different kind of work from growing, but it's still part of how I enjoy this hobby. And Big Mama deserved a proper studio session before moving on to her next chapter. ──────────────────────── 📸 PHOTO STACKING – MORE THAN ONE PICTURE If you've been following my recent updates, you already know how much I enjoy photo stacking. For anyone who hasn't come across it before, the basic idea is to capture multiple photographs of the same subject at different focus distances and combine the sharp areas into one final image. This can create a photograph with greater apparent depth of field and reveal more of the subject's details. But it's not simply a matter of pressing a button and walking away. 😂 There's setup involved. There's lighting. There's positioning. There's capturing the individual frames. And then there's processing the photographs and checking how the final image comes together. For this session, we took individual flowers and branches into the studio and created stacks to document some of the details that caught my eye. The resulting images give us another way to appreciate Big Mama beyond the wider photographs of the whole plant. And that's what I love about this process. One plant can give you many different photographic stories. The whole plant. A branch. A flower. A macro detail. A stacked image. Each one shows something different. 📸💚 ──────────────────────── 🌿 FROM PLANT TO INDIVIDUAL FLOWERS After the photographs, we moved on to the next part of the process. We broke the plant down into individual sections and removed the leaves we didn't want to retain around the flowers. This was part of preparing the material for the next stage of our project. I want to make an important distinction here. This wasn't a conventional drying-and-curing update, and we're not presenting the material as finished flower. We have taken a different route with this particular harvest. After the initial breakdown and trimming, we vacuum-bagged the material and placed it in the freezer. ❄️🌿 That's where it is now. The plant has left the tent. The studio session is complete. The material has been prepared and stored. And the next chapter will focus on the extraction process we're planning to document. So, rather than trying to explain every part of that process here, we'll give it the attention it deserves in a future report. For now, this update is about the harvest itself and the transition from the growing environment to the next stage. ──────────────────────── ❄️ BAGGED, VACUUM-SEALED AND INTO THE FREEZER And now… Big Mama is resting in the freezer. 😂❄️👑 After breaking the plant down and removing the leaves we wanted to take off, we vacuum-bagged the material and placed it in the freezer. This is the preparation stage for the next part of the project. We're planning to use this frozen material for a bubble-hash extraction, and we'll document that process separately. I don't want to jump ahead and start describing results we don't have yet. The extraction hasn't been documented in this report. We haven't shown the final product. And we're not going to pretend that the story is already finished. Right now, the material is stored, and the next chapter is still waiting for us. ❄️🌿 This is one of those moments where the diary becomes a little different from a conventional grow report. We're not simply following a plant from seed to harvest and stopping there. We're documenting what happens next, too. And that means giving each stage its own space. Big Mama's growing chapter is finished. Her post-harvest chapter has begun. And the extraction story is still ahead of us. ──────────────────────── 🫧 THE NEXT CHAPTER – BUBBLE HASH So, what happens next? The plan is to document the process of turning the frozen material into bubble hash. For anyone unfamiliar with the term, bubble hash is a type of cannabis concentrate made by separating resin-bearing trichome material from plant material using ice-cold water and filtration. The process uses the difference in physical characteristics between the resin-bearing material and the rest of the plant, with filtration helping separate the collected material into different grades. It's a different project from simply drying and curing flower, which is why we want to document it separately rather than trying to squeeze it into this harvest update. We'll explain what bubble hash is, how the process works at a high level, what equipment and stages we're using, and what we observe along the way. We'll also document the drying of the collected material and what we decide to do with it afterwards. But we're not there yet. 😂🫧 For now, Big Mama is safely stored in the freezer, and the next chapter will begin when we're ready to carry out and document that process. I want to show the journey as it happens, step by step, rather than write the ending before we've reached it. ──────────────────────── ? WHY THIS IS A DIFFERENT STORY FROM HER SISTER This is where things get interesting. Frosted Guava Pheno A and Pheno B belong to the same genetic family, but their individual diaries are telling two separate stories. Both girls have now left the tent. Both have had their harvest-day photographs. Both have moved on from the flowering stage. But the post-harvest journey we're documenting here focuses on Big Mama and what we're doing with her material next. For Pheno B, we've chosen to vacuum-bag the prepared material and store it in the freezer as part of our planned bubble-hash project. That means her next update will have a different focus from a report centred on drying and curing whole flowers. We're still documenting the plant's journey, but the next stage is a different one. And that's precisely why I want to keep her report individual. Even when two plants share a cultivar, they deserve their own records. Their development is individual. Their harvest is individual. And their post-harvest journeys can be individual, too. Two Frosted Guava sisters. Two beautiful plants. And two stories that don't need to be identical. 🦄🦄💚 ──────────────────────── 🌿 THE 8×8 ADVENTURE CONTINUES There's something special about reaching this stage of the project. For weeks, we've been watching a room full of different plants sharing the same general environment. We've observed different structures. Different growth patterns. Different flowering expressions. Different rhythms. And now, one by one, the girls are moving into their next chapters. Frosted Guava Pheno B has completed her time in the tent. The plants still growing in the room continue their own journeys. And our documentation continues with them. That's the beauty of keeping individual diaries. Each plant gets her own timeline. Each plant gets her own photographs. Each plant gets her own story. And even after harvest, we can continue documenting what happens next. Big Mama may have left the tent, but she's still very much part of the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 ──────────────────────── 😂 BIG MAMA IS RESTING – DOC HAS MORE WORK TO DO Let's be honest. Big Mama has done her part. She's grown. She's flowered. She's given us beautiful photographs. She's had her studio session. And now she's resting in the freezer. 😂❄️👑 Meanwhile, DogDoctor still has photographs to organize, stacks to process, future updates to prepare, and an extraction project to document. Apparently, the work doesn't stop just because the plant has left the tent. 😂📸🫧 But that's part of the fun. Growing is one part of the journey. Photographing is another. Documenting the harvest is another. And now we have a new chapter waiting for us. I'm looking forward to sharing it with you, because I want to show not only the final outcome but also the process that gets us there. One stage at a time. One update at a time. And one beautiful Big Mama at a time. ──────────────────────── 🔮 WHAT COMES NEXT? The next chapter will focus on the extraction project. We'll document the bubble-hash process, explain the stages, and share what happens when we work with the frozen material. We'll also cover how we handle the collected material afterwards and what we decide to do with the final result. The amount of material we have to share will determine whether we can fit everything into one update or whether we'll need more than one. Either way, we won't rush it. We want the information and photographs to tell the story properly. And once that part of the journey is complete, we'll be able to bring everything together in a final report. For now, Big Mama is resting. The freezer is doing its job. And we're preparing for the next chapter. ?🫧🌿 ──────────────────────── 💭 FINAL THOUGHTS – BIG MAMA'S STORY ISN'T FINISHED Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia. Pheno B. Harvest day. 🦄👑💎 What a beautiful journey this girl has given us. We've watched her grow from seed under a 12/12 schedule. We've followed her individual development. We've seen her distinctive character emerge. We've admired her flowers and unusual structures. We've compared her journey with her sister's while allowing her to remain her own plant. And now, we've reached the end of her time in the tent. We took her final photographs in the grow room. We moved her into the studio. We photographed branches and flowers. We captured macro details and created photo stacks. Then we broke her down, removed the leaves we wanted to take off, vacuum-bagged the material, and placed it in the freezer. ❄️🌿 But this isn't the final report. It's the beginning of another chapter. The material is waiting for the bubble-hash project, and we'll document that process in future updates. We'll share what we do, what we observe, and what happens afterwards. Until then, Big Mama gets to rest while we prepare the next part of the story. And I want to say something about this whole journey. Not every plant needs to end her story in exactly the same way. Not every phenotype needs to follow the same path after harvest. And not every diary needs to fit into one neat, identical format. The important thing is to document what actually happened, explain the decisions we made, and share the experience honestly. That's what we're doing here. Big Mama has her own story. Her sister has hers. And both deserve their own spotlight. 🦄💎💚 So let's give this beautiful girl the recognition she deserves. Thank you for the flowers, Big Mama. Thank you for the photographs. Thank you for the memories. And thank you for giving us another reason to keep exploring the many different ways these plants can express themselves. Your time in the tent is finished. But your story? It's still going. 😂👑❄️ ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU As always, a massive thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share our experiences with growers around the world. And thank you for understanding why this harvest update sits under a flowering week. The photo limit means we need to divide the story into manageable chapters, and we want to document the harvest and the next stages properly rather than leave important details out. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Frosted Guava genetics and for giving us these two beautiful sisters to follow. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the growing-media and nutritional side of the adventure. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to explore the expanded lighting setup. 💡☀️🌿 Thank you to Lumiflora for helping illuminate the deeper areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us monitor and manage the environment behind the scenes. And, of course, thank you to everyone who follows these diaries, leaves comments, asks questions, shares experiences, and enjoys the journey with us. Every bit of support means a lot. 💚 ──────────────────────── 💚 COME JOIN OUR DISCORD COMMUNITY! And before you go, if you haven't joined us yet, you're more than welcome to come and say hello! 🌿 DogDoctorOfficial Community: https://discord.gg/dogdoctorofficial Our Discord community keeps growing, and honestly, one of my favourite things about it is the people. We have conversations about the plant, growing experiences, equipment, photography, and all the little things that make this hobby so interesting. We also have community discount codes, competitions where members can win prizes, giveaways, and other activities for everyone to enjoy. But above all, we have a community that feels like family. 💚🤝🌱 And I want to make one thing clear. You don't need to be an expert to join. You don't need years of experience. You don't need to know every technical term. You don't even need to be an active speaker. You can ask questions, share your experiences, join the conversations, or simply hang out and listen. Everyone is welcome. There's no competition over who knows the most, no need to prove yourself, and no requirement to be at a particular level. We're there because we enjoy talking about this plant, learning from each other, and sharing the journey. So if that sounds like your kind of place, come and join us. We'd love to have you with us! 💚🌿 Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you in the next chapter of the 8×8 Adventure… where one more girl has left the tent, the freezer is holding Big Mama's next chapter, the photographs are waiting to be processed, and DogDoctor has another project to bring you. 😂📸🦄❄️ The harvest is complete. The next story is waiting. And Big Mama? She's not finished with us yet. 👑💎🫧 Let her shine. 💚

Today is day 64 and these ladies are just lookin so beautiful, stacking up really nice!! Didn’t have any issues this week except humidity is a little low but got couple more humidifiers an we are good to go! Can’t wait to see what they do this week,, nugs are getting rock hard dense and smelling oh so sweet ! We are starting week 9 this week so all stay tuned for next weeks photos ! Peace love an positive vibes to y’all, an if there’s any questions feel free to ask me ! ✌️

Queste 3gorilla strawberry sono spettacolari.sanno davvero di fragola..

So this is how things are looking at the end of Week 8, not much to update, bud sites forming nicely. Uploaded a video which explains better.

Day 80, 22nd of October 2020: 3rd week of flowering! Happiness she needs a lot of boost hard to keep up. She loves fertilization too much..... I mean before always craving for nitrogen now qould need more potassium and phosphorus hard to keep up. I also detect deficiency based on the leaves getting lighter and brown spots but I do feed her as much as I can really. This week i have relised the first nice trichomes started "sitting" on the leaves as well and the pistils coming out nicely pre flowers forming. Let's go.

Set up a second 3x3 tent and put GGs in one tent, BBs in the second. Alternating watering and nutrients every 48 hours. PH 6.3 for both.

Zkittlez Feminized by Club Riot Seeds ( www.clubriotseeds.com ) Week 1 0.5L Pot LED: MIGRO 200 (210W) for Veg. Stage Canna COCO Seeds are put at germinated in wet paper towels for 72 hours Name: Zkittlez Feminized Genetic: Grape Ape x Grapefruit Type: Feminized ( Indica Strain ) Indoor Yield: 80 ~ 140 grams/plant ( 15L Pot ) with LST growth technique. Indoor Height: 70 ~ 110 cm THC: Very High CBD: Low Flavour: Grape , Sweet , Berry . Effect: Relaxed , Happy and Euphoric.

This is my first grow getting back into it after a 25 yr absence.

Diese erste Woche ist für mich nicht zufrieden stellend. Farbe aller Ladies zu hell, Wachstum in meinen Augen gehemmt da für 7 Tage zu klein. Problem ist noch nicht erkannt, da ich zum ersten mal Advanced Nutrients und das erste mal Autoflowering Seeds nutze. Die Energiesparlampe die ich schon seit Jahren verwende (bei kleinen Töpfen 1 l) war jetzt nicht gut da die Seeds direkt in die großen Töpfe gesetzt wurden und somit der Abstand und Ausleuchtung schlecht waren. Das war bei photoperiodischen Pflanzen kein Problem da immer 2 mal umtopfen. Daher heute der Umstieg auf eine Metal Halogen Lampe 250 Watt. Mal sehen was die nächste Woche bringt. Da ich nur mit Regenwasser gieße habe ich zu dem Advanced Nutrients Sortiment heute noch cal mag gekauft, da auch dies ein Thema sein könnte. Gestartet bin ich mit dem Dünger an Tag 5 mit der hälfte des Düngeplans… ist das so okay? Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit kann ich als Problem ausschließen da die Werte gut waren

Welcome to the first week of flowering of my Sticky Broccoli. The plant doesn’t seem to stop stretching and I think it will become the tallest in the tent, with longer internodal spacing than the other plants. It’s probably the effect of the red light used during the vegetative stage. I don’t see it as too negative though, because the buds will have more space to receive light. Since I harvested one plant from the tent and gained some extra space, I decided to start some late LST to spread the branches as much as possible and open the canopy.

Today Again a short update.

Inclui Sulfato de Mg nos nutrientes pois a planta começou a apresentar deficiência. Vou segurar mais um tempo para ver se ajustou o suficiente antes de virar para a Flora
