Week 7 on flush with just water 7 days to go and it will be done the smell is stonge and as cirtus notes nugets s are soild and dence

Hey so the girls finished the end of week 6 looking super happy again 😊 this hasn't been easy this run watering I've had quite a few mistakes on my part overwatering though giving the girls an extra day between watering seriously helped under LEDs . The girls are growing amazing and some girls are in the ending stages of there flowering cycle putting on weight and growing dense buds , at the moment the girls scout cookie's is gonna be finished for week 8 dead on and is ultra dense , something I've noticed with these girls , thicker stems , more support , denser flowers and overall general health seems really improved moving away from the HPS , going to start some on Terra aquatica RIPEN for thoes colours coming to the end of flower 🌼 This week I'm able to describe weather they taken there indica hybird or sativa genetics also weather growth is going well or bad depending on specific strains . All girls are now in flower so there colours are starting to show in one of the dosidos having nice purple buds 💜 Girl scout cookie's Amazing growth from the smallest plant is nearly at harvest with massive dense nugs its truly a little freak of a plant displaying the purple leaves underneath The other girl scout cookie's is doing amazing and was left to grow normally the other in LST went hermi on me 2 weeks previously which was a sure disappointment being my biggest plant at that time but growth seems great on this strain for harvest times although plants are smaller than I normally get the yeild might surprise us at the end 😀 Gorilla glue Sporting a solid structure and vigour like I've only ever seen on anything containing gorilla glue genetics and going into late flower now , one plant is seriously feeding a high level of nutes , greedy beware and make sure to keep plenty of everything at hand for max growth . Some leaves are starting to show slight defenices alothough im not worried as towards end of flower this plant is ģonna look seriously cool Runtz 🚫 Girls are gonna be the biggest yeilders thanks to thoes skittles and hybird gentics coming from this strain donating its sativa high yeilds to this plant , two are late flower one is still stretching and is the biggest girl in the room by number of leaves and size , these strains end LST to provide enough space and light for these girl to promote there best traits . Feeding these girls are modest and not overall big feeders so it's not bad growing for beginners these girls will need to get a good few of there fan leaves removed to promote airflow and heat exchange Dosidos Girls are starting to pick up now , one has even rewarded us with out of this world purple buds 💜 I love my purple 💜 Growing well under LST although they has a slow start they seem to be picking up so heigh and I do reckon I'll get at least 28 grams a plant Lemon haze I've always misjudge the sativa strains as uncontrollable for a small room but I've been mistaken as these are looking to be good yeilder Blueberry Very tempermental, this is such a hard strain to keep happy in general it's been a pain in the arse , Headlight kush auto These are the same very tempermental and a decent strain but doesn't have great vigour like the ZAMNESIA seeds seem to be looking great and growing amazing these girls would need another run but at the moment I'm not happy about overall growth

Apricot Auto FastBuds This week I had to increase watering on Apricot #1 4.5 liters and #2 3 liters. Since NYC Diesel leaves look so dark green with some clawing and all the gals in the tent are receiving the same nutrients as NYC Diesel, I determined I ‘ve overfertilized. The apricots don’t show dark leaves but to be cautious I gave them Calmag the first time and the second flush 1 gallon PH 6.15 water. I defoliated some large fans that were damaged by low cal mag. Only one of the Apricot is showing colors as Fastbuds describes. Purples in the buds with orange pistils. Stay green, growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Week 5: Transplant Time & Root Power! Oh man, this was one of those weeks! We transplanted all five phenos into bigger pots, and let me tell you, they’re thriving! (Check out the complete video episode for all the details 😉). The girls are looking amazing, all pretty much the same size for now, so I don’t have any favorites yet—but let’s see what the future holds! For photos, I used both my Nikon P900 and Sony A6000, with a bunch of lenses and filters to preserve the true colors—these LEDs are powerful! Current Setup & Conditions This week, they’re still chilling with their sisters in the big tent, but in about a week, they’ll be moving into the TrolMaster ecosystem for even better environmental control. Watering: pH 6.06, EC 0.96 Temperature: A bit cold , but it is what it is. We’re facing some freezing outdoor temps (as shown last week in the frosty veggie garden pics!), yet these Runtz are holding strong like true champions. 💪❄️ Nutrition: Still on the Aptus Clean Program, with: Regulator System Clean RO Water Conditioner All-in-One Liquid Root Development: The Real MVP! Let’s go deep on roots! The mycorrhizae in the Pro-Mix soil has been working its magic, and I’m still boosting them further with a touch of Aptus Holland Mycor Mix. The root development on this transplant was insane—super white, healthy, and ready to explode with growth. What Are Mycorrhizae? The word “mycorrhiza” comes from Greek: • Myco- meaning fungus • Rhiza- meaning root Mycorrhizae are a type of beneficial fungi that form a symbiotic (mutually beneficial) relationship with plant roots. These fungi extend far beyond the root zone, creating an underground network that helps plants absorb water, nutrients, and improve overall health. This is not a single species but rather a whole category of fungi, mainly divided into: 1. Ectomycorrhizae – Live on the outside of plant roots, forming a sheath around them. Common in trees like pines and oaks. 2. Endomycorrhizae (Arbuscular Mycorrhizae, AMF) – The most beneficial for most crops and cannabis. These penetrate root cells, forming structures inside the roots that exchange nutrients. Where Are Mycorrhizae Found in Nature? Mycorrhizae naturally occur in forests, grasslands, and undisturbed soils worldwide. They play a crucial role in maintaining ecosystem balance by helping plants access nutrients from the soil. In a natural environment, plants are constantly forming relationships with these fungi. However, in modern agriculture, excessive tilling, chemical fertilizers, and fungicides have reduced their populations, making supplementation necessary in many cases. How Do Mycorrhizae Work? Once mycorrhizae colonize a plant’s roots, they start forming an underground fungal network called the mycelium. This network extends the plant’s reach into the soil, acting as a second root system. Benefits of Mycorrhizae: ✅ Enhanced Nutrient Uptake – Mycorrhizae help plants absorb phosphorus, nitrogen, and micronutrients that would otherwise be unavailable. ✅ Improved Water Absorption – The fungal network can reach deeper into the soil than roots alone, helping plants survive drought conditions. ✅ Stronger, Healthier Roots – They promote thicker, more robust root systems, reducing transplant shock. ✅ Better Soil Structure – They produce glomalin, a protein that improves soil aggregation and helps retain moisture. ✅ Natural Pest & Disease Resistance – Healthy plants with strong mycorrhizal relationships tend to be more resistant to soil-borne pathogens. How Mycorrhizae Help in Cannabis & Gardening In controlled growing environments, using mycorrhizae is a game-changer. Since cannabis relies heavily on phosphorus, the enhanced nutrient uptake provided by mycorrhizae is especially beneficial. Best ways to apply mycorrhizae: • At transplant – Dust roots with mycorrhizae powder or mix into soil. • As a soil drench – Some liquid formulations allow fungi to colonize even after planting. • Mix into your growing medium – Using pre-amended soil like Pro-Mix HP Mycorrhizae ensures roots have early access. Pro Tip: Mycorrhizae need living roots to survive! Avoid using synthetic fungicides or excessive chemical fertilizers, as they can kill the fungi. Think of mycorrhizae as a natural root booster. They’ve been around for hundreds of millions of years, helping plants thrive in all conditions. By using them in cultivation, you’re mimicking nature, ensuring your plants grow stronger, healthier, and more resilient. When used correctly, mycorrhizae can increase yields, improve plant health, and reduce the need for synthetic inputs—making them a must-have for any serious grower! Can’t wait to see how they’ll look in the next transplant! I made a few changes to my improvised photo studio, including a pink background for now—because why not? Let’s keep things fun and full of color! 🌸📸 Massive gratitude to all our sponsors and of course, a special shoutout to Zamnesia, Plagron, and Grow Diaries for making this amazing cup happen. 🙌 And to the community—followers, supporters, lovers, haters—I love you all! ❤️ Let’s keep pushing forward, learning, and making this grow legendary!

She looks so so awesome and she really climbed this week some monster steps. In only 7 days she nearly doubled from 32cm to fabulous 62cm in height. I'm more than hyped to open my tent every morning and see what she done! For the first weeks for real a banger!!!

Die letzte Woche habe ich nichts, dokumentiert oder aufgenommen. Die PermaFunk ist am weitesten, die AppleFritter hat anscheinend eine 2 Welle an Blüte Massephase, sie hat vor 3 Tagen angefangen neue weiße stigmen zu bilden und das nicht wenig. Deshalb erhält sie noch eine weitere Woche Futter. Die PermaFunk befindet sich gerade am Anfang der flush Phase. Am Blütetag 56 hat die Dame das letzte Mal Futter bekommen. Heute ist der 10.10.25 und somit befinden wir uns im Blütetag 60. Die LaBomba wird schätzungsweise bis Blütetag 70-72 weiter gefüttert bevor die Spülung kommt. Naja mal schauen, ich bin echt gespannt. Jede einzelne der Damen verströmt einen mega geilen starken touch mit besonderen Hauch an Aromen. Die AppleFritter riecht mega anziehend, hat eine cremige Note mit etwas vanille im Abgang. Die PermaFunk riecht nach einer typischen Cali Sorte, ich würde in Richtung purple punch ähnelt sagen. Die La Bomba bekommt langsam einen eigenen Geruch, eher Richtung zitrus. Ich bin gespannt...

***Sponsored Grow*** = Medic || https://medicgrow.com || Grow = ***Sponsored Grow*** This week was fun, realized I was giving my plants close to 60DLI vs 40DLI so I lowered the lights back down to 80% they should be within the range of 38-42DLI depending on specs, I lack a tools to monitor this in house so have to go off of specs and calculations I have from manufacture and other people who reviewed the lights online. main big one is 2.8 vs 2.2 effectivity on the diodes. Noted that the white dandruff coming out the runoff was indeed spring tails. looks like they have made a home in my medium and I don't care. must be eating all the dead shit. Still ph'ing my water up to combat the acidic whatever in the pots. maybe this is from the spring tails or bacteria in there. good thing is they eat mold and other nastiness in the soil. I do think I messed up quite a bit on this grow, I am hoping the next one will be better. First time using liquid feed vs dry soil amendments. The seedsman plants are doing quite well vs the others, the spread out habit of this plant is allowing lots of light to hit all the bud sites. and I keep getting different smells off of it depending on the day and the last time I watered. Will know its true profile when I can chop and cure. Guessing this will be about 2-4 weeks out. Till next week. ***Sponsored Grow*** Official Website: https://medicgrow.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/medicgrowled Twitter: https://twitter.com/medicgrow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/medicgrow420/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNmiY4F9z94u-8eGj7R1CSQ Growdiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow

TrainWreck is going well full steam ahead. All jokes aside. She has double in size and she is starting to fatten up the lower end is fattening up also. Her ph is reading 6.4 with a run off 840ppm temps is running at 79 degrees, an humidity is at a hard 45% Rh. She is taking .75 gallon a day. Let’s see what this week will bring. Thank for viewing an happy growing!

This week marks the final phase for my Blueberry from Zamnesia a truly beautiful plant that has shown its full potential during the last stretch. After completing the last feeding with Overdrive, I officially began the flush with plain water. The response has been perfect: a natural fade across the canopy, with fan leaves turning yellow and purple while the buds stay vibrant, dense, and sticky. Under the loupe, the trichomes are mostly cloudy with about 15–20% amber, showing that the plant is entering peak maturity. The resin production is absolutely insane the buds are coated in a thick layer of trichomes from top to bottom, giving them that frosted, icy appearance that’s classic for high-quality Blueberry genetics. The calyxes are fully swollen, and the pistils have turned a rich orange-brown, curling inward as the plant finishes ripening. This week, the aroma reached its peak an incredibly sweet and fruity blueberry scent with earthy undertones and a subtle creamy note. Every time I open the tent, the smell fills the entire room. The terpenes are clearly well-developed, and the overall fragrance feels deep, natural, and powerful. Structurally, the plant stayed compact but productive, with thick, stacked colas covered in resin. Even the lower buds are tight and solid no airy popcorns, just consistent, frosty flowers. The upper colas are especially impressive, with a perfect balance of purple tones, orange pistils, and silver trichome coverage that makes them look almost unreal under light. The fade has been very smooth thanks to a well-timed flush. The leaves are now fading evenly without any harsh burns, which should ensure a clean, smooth smoke after drying and curing. Trichomes look at their absolute prime right now, so harvest will likely take place within the next few days for maximum flavor and balanced effects. Overall, this Blueberry exceeded my expectations strong, aromatic, full of resin, and visually stunning. The final yield looks promising for its size, with buds that feel heavy, sticky, and extremely fragrant. One of the frostiest and most terpene rich autos I’ve grown so far.

Tropicana had to go back indoor because the temperature outside is the opposite of tropical. I took off two leafs and gave her time to relax after. Everything is fine and I can already smell something when I‘m near to her. 🤭☺️ Where is the sun? Preparing for sun storm!

She smells and tastes great 🔥🔥🔥🔥she also looks good with her purple buds.

Week 6 is begonnen en ze laat al tekenen van bloei zien. Ze is flink de lucht in geschoten afgelopen week. Ze is meer dan 10 centimeter gegroeid. Laten we kijken hoe ze zich deze week ontwikkeld. Ze krijgt nu ook de all-in-one liquid van aptus meegevoed. Ik zal gedurende de week nog verse foto's updaten. 👌🏽

🍮 Chem Brûlée – Pheno B Week 10 | She's Hungry for More… and She's Still Shining 🌸❄️🔥 Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And I have to admit... Chem Brûlée Pheno B is looking beautiful. Really beautiful. She's got that unmistakable personality we've been watching develop week after week, and the further we move into flower, the more clearly she's showing us exactly who she is. She's demanding. She's hungry. She's definitely not the quiet girl in the room. 😂 But she's also growing amazingly. The flower formation is getting better and better. The structure is becoming more impressive. And those developing flowers are giving us plenty of reasons to stop, grab the camera, and take another look. So this week... we're putting the spotlight right back where it belongs. On this beautiful, demanding girl. 🍮🌿🌸 🌱 Week 10 – She's Still Doing Her Thing Chem Brûlée Pheno B has never really been interested in following anybody else's schedule. And honestly? I wouldn't have it any other way. She's continued moving forward in her own rhythm, building on the structure she created earlier in the run. She's around 130 cm, and that taller, more open architecture remains one of the characteristics that immediately separates her from her sister. But now the structure is becoming secondary to what it's carrying. The flowers. And they're looking fantastic. This week, when I look at her, I don't see a plant that's simply flowering anymore. I see a plant that's building flowers with purpose. And that's a very exciting transition. 🌸 The Flower Formation Is Beautiful This is probably the first thing I want to highlight this week. Her flower formation. It's getting seriously beautiful. The developing buds are becoming much more defined, and the individual flowering sites are starting to show much more character. Those long white pistils are still reaching out everywhere, creating that almost explosive appearance around the flowers. And underneath them, the actual bud structure is becoming increasingly substantial. You can see the plant putting everything together. Layer by layer. Week by week. Flower by flower. It's still not the finished product, obviously. There's plenty of development ahead. But we're getting to that point where the imagination starts doing some of the work. You look at a flower today... and start wondering what it's going to look like several weeks from now. And with this girl? I genuinely don't know. 😂 That's what makes it fun. 🌿 That Beautiful Green Is Coming Through And there's another thing I really appreciate when I look at her now. She's looking beautifully alive. The foliage has a strong, healthy presence, and the whole plant has that feeling of being actively engaged in flowering. She's not sitting there quietly. She's working. And working hard. This phenotype has always had a different character from Pheno A, but now that we're deeper into flower, those differences are becoming even easier to appreciate. She's got her own architecture. Her own flower formation. Her own rhythm. And definitely... her own appetite. 🍽️ She's Definitely a Hungry Girl I have to admit it: this one is demanding. Looking at her progression, I get the feeling that she could happily sit down at the dinner table and ask: "Is that all?" 😂🍽️🌿 She seems to be using everything the environment is giving her incredibly enthusiastically. And while I'm not going to pretend that one visual observation tells us exactly what a plant needs, this girl certainly gives the impression that she has a strong appetite. She's growing. She's flowering. She's developing. She's capturing light. And she's putting that energy somewhere. The interesting thing is that she's doing all of this while still showing us that distinctive phenotype expression we've been following since the beginning. So rather than trying to force her into someone else's idea of what she should look like, I'm simply continuing to watch her closely. Because she's clearly got something to say. And apparently she's saying it with an appetite. 😂 💡 She's Catching Every Photon She Can And that brings us to one of my favourite subjects in these weekly reports: photons. Because when I look at this girl, I genuinely think about how much invisible energy is passing through her canopy every day. The Black Series LEDs are sending photons into the room. Those photons encounter leaves. The leaves capture what they can. And the plant uses that captured light energy to power its biological processes. We don't see the photons. We see the result. The green leaves. The developing flowers. The increasing structure. The growth. The resin. The plant itself becomes the visible record of all that invisible energy moving through the system. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B? She's clearly trying to catch every photon she can. 💡🌿 ☀️ The Canopy Is Her Solar Field I really like thinking about the canopy this way. Every leaf represents another opportunity to intercept light. Every angle matters. Every layer of the plant creates a slightly different relationship with the light above it. And this girl's architecture gives us a particularly interesting example. She's taller. She's more open. Her branches occupy different heights. Her flowers aren't all sitting in exactly the same place. So the photons entering the canopy aren't interacting with one flat surface. They're moving through a three-dimensional plant. And that's why the additional lighting within the room is so interesting to me. We're not simply thinking about the top of the plant. We're thinking about how useful light reaches different parts of the entire structure. The plant has built the architecture. The lighting provides the photons. And together... we get to watch what happens. 💡 Same Photons. Different Stories. And this is where the 8×8 Adventure gets really interesting. The photons don't know which phenotype they're hitting. The same general lighting environment is shared by the room. But look at the results. Pheno A tells one story. Pheno B tells another. Different height. Different structure. Different flower arrangement. Different foliage expression. Different appetite. Different personality. That's the beauty of having these plants growing side by side. The environment gives us a common foundation. The genetics write the individual story. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B is writing hers in a very interesting way. 🌸 She's Putting That Energy Into Flowers And when I look at the photographs this week, that's probably the most satisfying part. She's not just producing foliage. She's building flowers. The developing buds have more definition. The pistils are becoming increasingly prominent. The flower structures are becoming more substantial. And the whole plant has a sense of progression. It's one of those moments where the photographs from previous weeks become extremely valuable. Because when you see a plant every day, change can be difficult to appreciate. But put Week 5 beside Week 8... then Week 9... then Week 10... and suddenly you realize: Wow. She's really moving. 📸🌸 ❄️ And the Frost Is Joining the Party The developing resin is another part of the story that's becoming increasingly enjoyable. Those close-up photographs reveal little details that disappear completely when you're standing across the room. The sugar leaves. The pistils. The developing trichomes. The texture of the flowers. The little structures forming around the buds. It's almost like looking at an entirely different plant. And that's why macro photography has become such a big part of this adventure for me. The wide photograph tells you: where she is. The macro photograph tells you: what she's becoming. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B is becoming increasingly interesting. 🌿 Her Architecture Is Working One thing I really appreciate about this phenotype is that the architecture she created earlier in the grow is now becoming useful. She's tall. She's open. She's got flowers distributed throughout her branches. And as those flowers develop, the structure becomes easier to understand. We're not trying to make her into Pheno A. We're not trying to compress her. We're not trying to make her follow another plant's blueprint. This is her blueprint. And it's working for her. That's one of the biggest lessons this whole project continues giving me. Sometimes the best thing you can do is create a good environment... and then get out of the plant's way. 💨 Air, Space & Balance As the flowers continue developing, I'm still keeping an eye on the overall canopy. The goal remains balance. Enough foliage to support the plant. Enough space for air movement. Enough light reaching productive areas. And enough observation to notice when something actually needs attention. We're not trying to strip the plant. We're not trying to create an artificial shape. We're simply watching how the canopy develops and responding when appropriate. She's already built a beautiful structure. Now we let that structure carry her forward. ⚗️ The Environment Keeps Providing the Foundation The room remains broadly consistent: 🌡️ Day temperature: ~29.9°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~25°C 💧 Relative humidity: ~60% 🥥 Substrate temperature: ~26°C 💦 Solution temperature: ~25°C ⚗️ pH: ~6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: ~639 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 💧 Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h 📏 Height: ~130 cm And once again, the interesting thing isn't simply the numbers. It's how the plant responds to the whole environment. Chem Brûlée Pheno B is showing us that she's capable of putting a lot of that available energy toward continued flowering. She's certainly not wasting the opportunity. ⚗️ Feeding – This Girl Has an Appetite The nutrition strategy remains part of the shared-room approach: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L With pH adjustment as required. Current solution: pH ~6.0 EC ~2.0 mS/cm And this is where I want to continue paying particular attention to her. Because visually, she gives me the impression of a plant with a healthy appetite. She's eating. She's growing. She's flowering. She's using the resources available to her. That doesn't automatically mean that changing anything is necessary, but it does make her an especially interesting phenotype to watch. She's clearly telling us: "I'm hungry." 😂 And I'm listening. 📸 Behind the Lens – She Deserves the Spotlight The camera loves this girl. Seriously. 😂📸 There's something about the combination of her longer structure and developing flowers that makes her incredibly fun to photograph. You can photograph the entire plant... and appreciate the architecture. Then move closer... and suddenly you're looking at those beautiful individual flowers. Move closer again... and the entire frame becomes pistils, resin and tiny details. And that's when I really appreciate how unique she is. She's not simply another Chem Brûlée. She's this Chem Brûlée. Pheno B. Her own expression. Her own story. Her own little universe inside the 8×8. 🌿 Twelve Plants, Twelve Personalities This is still one of my favourite parts of the project. Twelve plants can share the same room... and still feel like twelve completely different characters. Some are quiet. Some are demanding. Some are tall. Some are compact. Some seem to drink like they're preparing for a marathon. Others take things a little more slowly. And then there's this girl. She's basically standing there with an empty plate saying: "More, please." 😂🍽️ But underneath the joke is something genuinely interesting. The genetics influence how each plant uses the same environment. And that's exactly what we're trying to document. We're not creating twelve completely different worlds. We're creating one environment... and observing twelve different responses. 🔮 Where Are You Going, Pheno B? And now I'm genuinely curious. Because she's giving me a feeling that there could be something very interesting waiting further down the road. The flowers are developing. The structure is established. The plant is active. She's capturing photons. She's consuming resources. She's continuing to build. So where does she go from here? I honestly don't know. And I'm not going to pretend I do. That's the fun. We'll keep watching. We'll keep photographing. We'll keep documenting. And we'll let Chem Brûlée Pheno B reveal herself. 💭 Final Thoughts – Let the Hungry Girl Shine If I had to summarize this week in a few words: Beautiful. Hungry. Unique. Chem Brûlée Pheno B is looking fantastic. Her flower formation is getting better every week. Her pistils are beautiful. Her structure is impressive. She's clearly making good use of the environment we've created. And yes... she's demanding. 😂🌿 I get the feeling she could happily take everything on the table and then ask what we're having for dessert. But that's part of her personality. And I like it. She's not trying to be Pheno A. She's not trying to be the greenest plant. She's not trying to follow anyone else's story. She's simply doing what she does. And right now, what she does is grow beautifully. The photons keep flying. The canopy keeps capturing them. The plant keeps converting that available light energy into biological work. And those flowers keep getting more interesting. So let's not rush her. Let's not try to predict the ending. Let's simply give her the spotlight... and see where she takes us. 🍮🌸❄️💡🔥 She's got an appetite. She's got personality. She's got beautiful flowers. And she's definitely got somewhere she's going. I just can't wait to see where. 🙏 Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share them with the growing community. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Chem Brûlée genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover these different phenotypes side by side. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the garden throughout this adventure. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for providing the Black Series lighting and keeping those photons flying through our little jungle. 💡☀️🌿 Thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into the inner and lower areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us keep track of the environment behind the scenes. And thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person who stops by to see how the girls are doing. It genuinely means a lot. And this week... the spotlight belongs to Chem Brûlée Pheno B. She's beautiful. She's demanding. She's hungry. She's capturing every photon she can. She's building some gorgeous flowers. And she's still writing her own story. So let's keep watching. Let's keep learning. Let's keep photographing. Let's keep those photons flying. And most importantly... let's let this beautiful, hungry girl shine. 🍮🌸❄️💡🔥 Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿📸

Week 5 28-35days was all smooth. Room is starting to smell alot more now

This week, we had a lot of filling out. Violet doesn't seem to grow as tall as wide! The leaves are so pretty, it's heartbreaking to cut them. 9/13 day 37 I thought I started noticing yesterday, but today, Violet quite obviously has red hairs! Hard to notice at a distance, up close, most of the buds have definite red hairs that match my own. Happy about her recent feeding, her luster is returning, and she's more and more full every day. 9/15 day 39 Every day is crazy hair day around this camp, and Violet always shows out with her long, white pistils. Over the last couple of days, the red hairs have been drowned out by more long whites, though I don't know why the back and forth. She is still getting very droopy kind of early, and no light adjustment seems to alleviate this. I've been reluctant to turn the light up to a proper level for flower so far because of it. Can not enough light cause similar symptoms? Every couple of days, I remove a leaf or two, do some tucking to uncover bud tops, and add or adjust LST. Getting wider than taller, she's really started to fill up the cabinet! 9/17 day 41 I take Violet out of the cabinet for what will probably be one of the last times, if not the very last. One fault of our cabinet is the narrow doorway, which we probably need to widen out at some point. Her layers are so well-defined and even, it is easy to see the separate tiers when looking at her straight on. I take off four big, sexy leaves, two of them the remaining original big fan leaves from the first nodes. There are still a couple more that need to come off the very top, but I can do those later, and I don't want to shock her too much at once. I also water 1gal today, enough to barely run out to preserve those nutes from last week's feeding. She looks very tired and sad as I tuck her back into the cabinet. Hopefully she will recover for morning pics. 9/18 day 42 Violet is slow to wake today. I have to detangle all her little leaves every morning, and today is extra. I'm going to adjust her light today. I've been waiting for her to not be so droopy at night, but we're going to see if it maybe helps instead of hurts. I do a moderate raise to 750 PPFD, about 45 DLI, to see how it goes. I also notice the return of the red hairs this morning! Unfortunately, there is no smell whatsoever yet, other than plant. Everyone who sees her says how healthy she looks. Anything that was appearing as light tips has filled out with color, and the beautiful blue-green leaves are full and lush. If everything I've read about this strain is true, we should only have a few weeks left with this plant, and the buds look like they're going to be nicely formed if we stay on course. I have so much hope for Violet's harvest!

Week 4 flower went fine with all three humming along nicely in living soil. Watered to saturation after applying a 1" top dressing of worm castings, compost, and Langbeinite from Down to Earth. No need for further plant training, defoliation, or pruning. Now, just sit back and let these girls finish their run.

~ GG4 SHERBET FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "Bred from extremely potent and flavorful Gorilla Glue and Orange Sherbet genetics, GG4 Sherbet FF (Fast-Flowering) takes all the best traits to the next level, offering a high-yielding strain that can produce up to 600 g/m2 in a 7-week flowering time. This super resilient Indica-leaning hybrid thrives indoors and outdoors, and in all types of climates while producing mouth-watering sweet, fruity, spicy and earthy terps that translate into a delicious sugary hazelnut aroma. Expect an extremely relaxing and overall happy effect that’ll leave you with a huge smile from ear to ear. It’s the perfect strain for growers of all levels of experience seeking low-maintenance yet highly productive photoperiod varieties that deliver quality and quantity without extra effort. GG4 Sherbet FF grows chunky buds with long dark orange hairs and spade-shaped calyxes that get encrusted with trichomes by harvest time, giving them a gorgeous silvery-white appearance. This medium-sized photoperiod can reach up to 200 cm in height and yields up to 650 g/m2 while developing that typical hybrid structure. GG4 Sherbet FF grows with a stocky, bushy appearance, developing one sturdy main cola and fat side branches that support huge yields without much effort. This super-fast variety produces distinctive light-green buds with a high bud-to-leaf ratio, making your trimming sessions a breeze. It’s a top-notch resin producer that doesn’t need much maintenance and will thrive in almost every climate, rewarding growers of all levels with extremely flavorful resin that makes for outstanding hash end extracts." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 4/18- Here we go into Week Three for the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower. She's fully acclimated to her outdoor location now and all I'm waiting for is the weather to warm up! 4/20- 🍃HAPPY 420 FAM!🍃 4/22- The GG4 Sherbet FF continues to do well with good color and vigor, considering the cooler weather we're having right now, adding another set of leaves. 4/24- I gave her a good watering today and am getting ready to get some straw to spread over her soil mound to help keep the soil moist and reduce watering frequency. There's another week for the little GG4 Sherbet FF. I'm really anticipating seeing her take off once our weather gets a bit warmer! Hope to see you next week... 😎

Oggi solo 3,5L di acqua demineralizzata, non esageriamo con i nutrimenti anche se le ultime due irrigazioni con soluzione nutritiva hanno evidenziato una buona assimilazione e la mancanza di segnali da "over fertilizzazione".
