I did harvest this for bubble hash as fresh frozen but after my first two runs, I'm not so sure about that lol. There's definitely a bit of a learning curve, especially handwashing and not the coldest temperature yet to work with although I did get the studio down to 45°. I think I'm probably just gonna do some edibles with this or something. I'm going to convert the wet weight to the dry weight would be just to get an idea.

🇺🇸 Week 9 of Growth – Mother Gorilla 🇺🇸 Hey everyone, we’re back for Week 9 of growth for the Mother Gorilla from Royal Queen Seeds. This week wasn’t great—the plant struggled to recover after the defoliation. I had major pH fluctuations all week, which really slowed down growth. Now at Week 9, I really want to switch to flowering, but the plant isn’t developing well enough. For the past three weeks, things haven’t been going smoothly, and it’s frustrating. This morning, after returning from the weekend, pH had risen to 6.4, which is way too high for hydro at this stage. So I flushed the reservoir and started fresh with a new, properly adjusted nutrient solution. I kept all the nutrients the same, and all other parameters remain unchanged. Now, my main focus this week is keeping the nutrient solution stable so the plant can resume healthy growth. Nothing else to report—just pH fluctuations and slowed growth. The plant really needs to regain strength before flowering, or it’ll be a problem. See you next week! ⸻ 🇫🇷 Semaine 9 de Croissance – Mother Gorilla 🇫🇷 Salut tout le monde, on est de retour pour la semaine 9 de croissance de la Mother Gorilla de chez Royal Queen Seeds. Cette semaine n’a pas été top, la plante a eu du mal à récupérer après la défoliation. J’ai eu de grosses fluctuations de pH toute la semaine, ce qui a ralenti la croissance. On est à 9 semaines de croissance, et j’aimerais vraiment passer en floraison, mais la plante ne se développe pas assez bien. Ça fait trois semaines que ça ne se passe pas comme prévu, et c’est frustrant. Ce matin, en rentrant du week-end, le pH était monté à 6,4, ce qui est bien trop élevé pour l’hydro à ce stade. J’ai donc vidé la soupe et préparé une nouvelle solution nutritive ajustée. J’ai gardé les mêmes nutriments, et toutes les constantes restent inchangées. Cette semaine, mon objectif est de stabiliser la solution nutritive pour que la plante puisse reprendre une bonne croissance. Rien d’autre à signaler, à part les fluctuations de pH et le ralentissement. Elle doit vraiment reprendre de la vigueur avant la floraison, sinon ça risque d’être compliqué. À la semaine prochaine ! 🤘😎

- Day 57 Watering day. Gave 3 Liters today, see how fast she'll drink that up. Day 59 Not much too report other than that the buds keep bulking up for now ^^. Day 61 Gave her another 2.5 liters today pot was fully dry after 4 days, so gave her a bit less this time. She smells great, very deep smell, almost smells like tobacco somehow, but sweet. Buds still have quite a few white pistils so she will still take a few weeks to finish I think. Day 63 Buds are definitely still bulking up 😍 definitely strong buds, very colorful and got a really nice smell going. I removed some yellowing leaves today and my fingers got stiiiiicky.

🌹Start to End week 6🌹

Lunes 18 primer día de luz .

Defoliated then cut down. They are full of autumn colours 😍

This week went very well, the Cream Mandarine Auto doubled in size from 12" to 24" which is exactly what I was hoping for. I think I have about one week left of vertical growth, then I will be transitioning her to flower nutrients. All the training and toppings are done, so just minor defoliation from here on out. Very excited to see what this Cream Mandarine Auto from Sweet Seeds can produce. Thanks for stopping by, have a great weekend, and Blaze On!

One of my own personally created strains. It definitely has the Jack Herer tall genetics. I topped and defoliated every plant. I'm trying to form them into canna-bushes. Hopefully I'm doing the correct training procedures to make them all grow that way both indoors and out.

Shes putting on some serious weight The smell is insane its one of my favorites Very candy like, almost rainbow candy not a single whif of earthyness or lemons just pure candy I water her now twice ever 12 hours because of the 25celcius now, and soon 33. The EC goes up a lot in summer always, so more waterings or even just pure rainwater to drop it lower

LST and defoliation goes on. Kush grows very compact.

Has been a good week for the girls. They really exploded this week. I can't keep up with the ties. They got too big to have a level canopy. Will have to adjust later this week after defoliation and lollipopping. Will be a huge week and the girls will look different next time you see them!

Im very happy with the progress so far. One of my better vegetative periods thats for sure. I removed my scrog as it was annoying to work with I did only water 1 time this week. Gave them around 1,2 liters each. Some a little less. PH 6, nutrients solution strenght is at 100% and they seem to be loving it. No signs of defficiencies to my knowledge. My grow tent is a little hot peaking at 30 celcius with a average around 29 at day and 18-22 celcius at night. Humidity is around 35 as well. My humidifier broke. I have fixed it and using it for my lemon tree and my vegetables that i got growing as well The smell is heaven like when i open the tent and some of them have the smell i am looking for so im really excited.

Ho avuto problemi di over fertilizzazione ora cerco di ristabilire i sali minerali nel terreno, ho toppato nuovamente per contenere le altezze e penso che tra poco piazzerò la rete

💜 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 6 | The Legend Begins to Reveal Herself Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! Every week these diaries become a little more exciting. The differences between each phenotype become clearer. Personalities emerge. Growth patterns separate. And some plants begin demanding your attention the moment you unzip the tent. Purple Haze Pheno A has officially become one of those plants. She isn't trying to be the loudest. She simply stands there... Elegant. Confident. Growing exactly the way a classic Haze should. This week she reminded me why some genetics earn legendary status. 🌱 One Experiment... Countless Stories If you're joining this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is built around one simple idea: What happens when every plant receives exactly the same opportunity? Every seed in this room has been grown under the 12/12 From Seed technique. No long vegetative period. No separate flowering room. No individual treatment. Every phenotype receives: • The same light schedule • The same nutrients • The same environment • The same temperatures • The same humidity • The same care The only variable... ...is genetics. And Purple Haze continues proving just how powerful genetics truly are. 🌿 Grace in Every Direction At approximately 88 cm tall, she has become one of the tallest ladies in the entire room. Yet height alone doesn't tell her story. What impresses me most is how balanced her structure has become. The internodes have spaced beautifully. Every branch has found its place. The canopy remains open. The airflow is excellent. Light reaches deep into the plant without needing aggressive defoliation. She almost seems to be building herself. Every day she becomes a little more elegant. A little more refined. Classic Haze architecture is beginning to reveal itself, and it's beautiful to witness. 🌸 Flowers Everywhere You Look This week marks the moment where there's no longer any doubt. Purple Haze has fully entered flowering. Every branch is producing flowers. Every node carries fresh white pistils. The tops continue stacking while secondary branches quickly catch up, creating dozens of future colas across the plant. The stretch hasn't completely finished, but now another transformation begins. The energy that once built stems is gradually shifting toward flower production. Week by week the framework is disappearing beneath an ever-growing collection of buds. And she's only getting started. 🍃 Healthy Leaves Tell an Important Story One of my favourite things about this phenotype isn't actually the flowers. It's the foliage. The leaves are exactly what every grower hopes to see. Large. Rich green. Flat. Healthy. Every fan leaf acts like a perfectly functioning solar panel, collecting energy that will eventually be transformed into dense, resin-covered flowers. Rather than removing healthy foliage unnecessarily, I've continued relying mostly on leaf tucking to expose developing bud sites while allowing the plant to keep producing as much energy as possible. Sometimes patience produces a better canopy than scissors ever could. 💧 Feeding the Next Chapter As flowering progresses, the feeding program continues evolving alongside the plant. This week's nutrient program includes: • Terra Bloom • Power Buds • Green Sensation • Sugar Royal • Pure Zym • Careful pH adjustment for maximum nutrient availability Every adjustment is made gradually. The objective isn't simply feeding bigger flowers. It's supporting the plant while allowing her genetics to express their full potential without unnecessary stress. So far... She's responding beautifully. 🌡️ Stability Creates Great Plants One lesson this project keeps reinforcing is just how important consistency can be. Current environmental conditions remain stable: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • Solution temperature: 22°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 639 ppm When the environment remains consistent, plants can dedicate their energy to growing instead of constantly adapting. That consistency allows every phenotype to show what it's truly capable of. 📷 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs capture a plant beginning to reveal her future. Close-ups highlight fresh clusters of bright white pistils emerging from every flowering site. The wider shots showcase her beautiful Haze structure, with long, elegant branches carrying evenly spaced bud sites from top to bottom. Several photographs focus on the healthy foliage surrounding the flowers, while others document the impressive overall symmetry that continues developing across the canopy. Looking back at previous weeks, it's incredible to see how quickly she's transformed. And somehow... It still feels like she's only just getting warmed up. 🔮 Looking Ahead Over the coming weeks I expect one of the most exciting stages of her journey to begin. The stretch should gradually slow. The flowers will begin swelling. Bud sites that currently look delicate will merge together, forming the long, spear-shaped colas so many growers associate with classic Haze genetics. If she continues following the path she's on today... She has every opportunity to become one of the standout phenotypes of this entire 8×8 Adventure. Not because she's the tallest. Not because she's growing the fastest. But because she's doing everything with remarkable balance. Sometimes that's what truly exceptional genetics look like. 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Every week reminds me why documenting every individual phenotype has been one of the most rewarding projects I've ever undertaken. Each diary tells a different story. Each plant teaches a different lesson. And Purple Haze Pheno A is reminding us that true elegance isn't measured by speed—it's measured by consistency. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can learn, share experiences, and inspire one another. 🌱 Zamnesia for providing the outstanding genetics behind this incredible phenotype hunt. 💜 Plagron for supplying the nutrition supporting every stage of this journey. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light that powers this entire project. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain the stable environment that allows every phenotype to express its full potential. And finally... Thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, asking questions, and growing alongside me. Every week this remarkable lady writes another chapter of her story. And if this week is any indication... I have a feeling we're watching something truly special unfold. Growers Love... and Purple Haze Pheno A is only beginning to show us why legends are remembered. 💜🌿

Harvesting An ELEPHANT !!! And after 118 day from seed and 101 from wen she started her mix veg/flowering process, i cant say for sure but i am starting to believe that this auto world do veg, then veg and flower in conjunction for a wile and only after they a wile they move to a flowering stage completely but thats another post another day lol today was harvest day for this Auto Elephant from SSSC , and let me tel you she is a delight with huge fruits, so big that i normally cut and hang the all plant and for this i did not take the risk of doing that and getting bud rot , better safe than sorry, so what i broke her in smaller peaces and put it all in the rack. Now not much to do than waiting for it to get around 10/15% humidity and jar with it all. This one as you guys can see from the video , this is a full covered in trichomes BIG MAMA and touching her is like touching super glue or something lol i was trying to put all the colas in one picture , but is simply just not possible , they all look great so i selected 4 of them for a true back back ground <3 Thank you Super Sativa Seed Club for this opportunity, i fell like a champion no matter what with this 2 Mamas, much respect on the work you guys did on this Elephant As always thank you all for stoping by for your love and for it all, i fell humble and honored
