The buds are swelling with the combo of Fox Farms Grow Big & Tiger Bloom. No signs of over feeding...full moon is 4 days away so we are getting some heavenly rain which would contribute to the budswell...her next feeding would be some molasses.

To me the ladies always look so small but they grow at an impressive pace. I’m in love with those nutrients, is my first full organic grow and Guanokalong is impressive, I never seen a similar root development, I transplant the plant from a 0,5L pot to a 1,5l and in 3 day I moved them again to the final 20L Plastic pot because already clogged. Enjoy fellow growers , I wish abundant harvest ☮️♥️

💎 Black Diamond Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno B | Week 2 Flower | Hidden Elegance Begins to Shine Not every exceptional plant demands the spotlight. Some quietly earn it. Black Diamond Auto Pheno B has continued doing exactly that throughout her second week of flowering. While her sister naturally catches the eye with her explosive presence, Pheno B keeps impressing through balance, structure, and effortless development. Watching these two sisters grow side by side has become one of the highlights of this project. They share the same genetics, the same environment, identical nutrition, lighting, irrigation, and gentle training, yet each expresses her own unique personality. That, to me, is where the magic of phenotype hunting truly begins. Like every plant in this project, she has been grown using my favourite method: 12/12 From Seed. From the very first day above the soil she has lived entirely under a flowering light schedule, allowing her genetics to dictate her natural architecture without an extended vegetative period. There has been no topping, no high-stress techniques and no aggressive manipulation. Only patience, observation, and gentle guidance. Low Stress Training has simply encouraged the branches to open naturally while allowing the plant to grow toward the light exactly as she wanted. Week after week she continues proving just how capable this technique can be. 🌱 Environment Another stable week has allowed every bit of energy to be invested into flower production rather than environmental adaptation. 🌡️ Day Temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night Temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative Humidity: 60% 🥤 Nutrient Solution Temperature: 21°C 🌱 Root Zone Temperature: 21°C ☀️ Light Schedule: 12/12 🌬️ CO₂: 636 ppm Consistency remains one of the greatest advantages inside this flowering room. Healthy roots, stable temperatures, continuous fresh air and reliable irrigation create an environment where the plants never need to recover—they simply continue growing. When the environment stays predictable, the genetics can truly express themselves. 🌿 Training & Canopy Management The philosophy hasn't changed because the plants haven't given me any reason to change it. Gentle Low Stress Training continues guiding the canopy while regular leaf tucking keeps developing flower sites exposed without sacrificing valuable foliage. There has still been no defoliation. Healthy fan leaves remain the plant's solar panels, converting light into the energy required to build flowers over the coming weeks. Rather than removing them, I simply reposition them whenever necessary, allowing light to reach lower bud sites while preserving as much photosynthetic capacity as possible. Sometimes restraint is the best form of training. 🌾 Feeding Program Flower production is now accelerating, and the nutrition program continues supporting both continued stretch and increasingly active bud formation. Current feeding includes: • Plagron Terra Bloom • Plagron Power Buds • Plagron Sugar Royal • Plagron Pure Zym • Plagron Green Sensation Everything remains beautifully balanced. The foliage stays deep green without becoming overly dark, growth remains vigorous, and there are no visible signs of nutrient deficiencies or excesses. She's clearly comfortable with the current feeding schedule, and when a plant tells you she's happy, the smartest decision is often to simply stay the course. 💎 Phenotype Spotlight This week Pheno B continues showing exactly why documenting individual phenotypes is so rewarding. Standing at roughly 160 cm, she's keeping pace with her sister, only fractionally smaller, while maintaining the same elegant, upright structure. Her branches remain evenly spaced, giving every developing flower site excellent airflow and light penetration. One characteristic has become increasingly noticeable. Although Black Diamond Auto is heavily indica dominant thanks to its Blackberry × Diamond OG lineage, this particular phenotype is expressing surprisingly slender, elongated leaf fingers. It's a subtle reminder that even in highly indica cultivars, recessive traits from the genetic background can occasionally step forward. She may be genetically around ninety percent indica, but those beautiful leaves seem determined to celebrate the remaining ten percent. And honestly... I absolutely love that. The flowering sites themselves are developing beautifully. Fresh white pistils continue emerging along every branch, while the calyxes are beginning to stack one above another, slowly creating the framework that will become long, continuous colas over the coming weeks. Every internode is now actively producing flowers, creating excellent spacing that should allow impressive bud development as flowering progresses. Even more exciting is the very first appearance of resin. It's still far too early to judge aroma or trichome production, and I certainly won't pretend otherwise, but a light sparkle is already beginning to appear across parts of the flowers and surrounding sugar leaves. It's only the opening chapter of what I hope will become a wonderfully frosty finish. Sometimes the earliest frost is simply a promise of what's still to come. 💡 Welcoming Lumiflora This week also marks another exciting step for the flowering room with the introduction of the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting system. The goal isn't to replace the main lighting overhead, but to complement it by delivering additional light into areas that naturally receive less intensity beneath the canopy. I'm looking forward to seeing how the extra light influences lower flower development, bud density, and overall canopy uniformity during the coming weeks. As always, I prefer to let the plants tell the story. Rather than making bold claims before the harvest, I'll simply continue documenting the results honestly and allow the final flowers to speak for themselves. 🔭 Looking Ahead Over the next week I expect vertical stretch to begin slowing as the plant redirects more energy into flower production. Those individual clusters of white pistils should continue connecting together as the calyxes swell, gradually transforming the elegant framework she's built into long, well-defined colas. Resin production should become increasingly visible, while the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting begins revealing whether additional light below the canopy can further improve lower flower development. I'll continue with gentle leaf tucking whenever needed, keeping the canopy open while allowing every healthy fan leaf to keep powering the plant naturally. If she maintains this steady pace, I think she's going to reward patience in a very big way. She's never tried to be the loudest plant in the room. She's simply focused on becoming one of the best. A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for providing these fantastic Black Diamond Auto genetics, to Plagron for continuing to support every stage of this journey with an incredibly reliable nutrient line, and now also to Lumiflora for joining the project with their under-canopy lighting system. I'm genuinely excited to document how this additional layer of lighting influences flower development over the remainder of the grow. Finally, my sincere thanks goes to the amazing GrowDiaries community. Your encouragement, thoughtful comments, and shared passion for growing are what make these weekly phenotype journals such a pleasure to write. Following two sisters side by side, watching them reveal different expressions of the very same genetics, is one of the greatest reminders that every seed has its own story waiting to be told. Until next week... Growers love and Happy Growing! 🌱💚

Chopped her down right after these photos. Had one little area with bud rot! The humidity has been crazy high and she was almost perfectly ready, but needed one more week. Chopping down to avoid any more! She smells like pine gas! Foxtails are from the temps swings. Happy with the turn out because Mother Nature was not kind to this lady! ✌️💚🌿💨. Results after dry!

08/21/24. Going into week 8 flower Welcome back to hell. Just kidding.. kinda.. Day 57 out of the 71 stated. This girls definitely going the whole way, if not more. She’s trying to make up for time that was taken from her. With the way she’s filling out now, I’m like damn. What would she have been like had we not hit a huge long bump in the road?? I’m shocked at what she’s even doing honestly. Big ups to Pablita. 👊 I guess this diary can just be a testament to this strain being resilient af. Also, hopefully it can serve as an example that you can bring a plant back from near death. Anyhow, giving her plain water currently as I think there’s still some build up in her soil. I tried feeding her a bit and noticed immediate tip burns. Going do water again next time as well and then a VERY light feeding that time after and see the happenings. I’m just trying to take it as slow and easy as possible with her. With progress .. don’t wanna throw everything back to shit. She’s thirsty every other day. Drinks almost a gallon, and get about 10% run off. Guess that’ll be all for now. ✌️

Just plain water and 3g/liter of substrate of the Tres Algas Sólido. Some leaves are super yellow and I think it has something to do with the pH. We'll see. Buds are developing well.

I am now flushing her with plain Brita filtered water PH'd with lime juice to lower her PH. I initially first flushed her with 42L of water and now I am flushing her once a day for 8 days and then I will put her in for darkness for 3 days and then I will harvest her and dry her for 9 days and then cure her for 28-48 days.

Some of the plants showing more signs of yellowing from watering issues and ph issues. Luckily I was able to get a nice strong batch of Boogie Brew compost tea made and gave them all a nice soak and bath with it. Within two days all but one of the plants bounced back. Now that the plants are able to fend for themselves a little better was a good opportunity to try to harden them off the ones going outside to the elements outside. I did so by placing on a shaded part of my deck for a few hours. I was also able to get my tent inside ready and they were moved from the small cool grows tent to my 4x8 tent with my big lights. I adjusted the light to be around 500 PPFD at canopy.

Welcome to my second grow of the Blue Dream strain. This girl was veg'd for 14 week in a small pot while my first grow of this strain is in the flowering room. She stretched quite a bit compared to the first GG#4 during veg. This strain seems to be long and stretchy by nature. She's looking good after moving her to the big pot and giving her a trim. Thanks for checking out my grows!

Ein sehr dichtes Wachstum mit riesigen Blättern. Langsam bekommt man etwas vom Stretch der Pflanze mit.
