11/26/23 - Day 19 - Today was water change day. By time I got around to looking at the plant I realized that a water change had already taken place. How amazing is that. I had to do nothing. I just wake up everyday to a plant much bigger than the day before. Its too easy! 11/28/23 - Day 21 - Today she is much bushier. It seems like shes is growing a whole leaf node out every 24 hrs. Really impressed with the color and size of this thing. I'm learning to expect great things from this Leaf growing experience. 11/30/23 - Day 23 - She keeps geeting bushier, maybe she has grown by about 2" since the start of the water change. Her color is the same all over, that dark but vibrant green. Because this is my first time growing an Auto in this box I'm wondering when I should top her. The branches are so close together. The last strain I grew had tons of room. This thing is growing like a bush. 12/1/23 - Day 24 - I did the first topping today. I took a video but its not uploading. Ill need to move it from my phone and upload from the computer.

Pow pow and welcome in Week14 - official Week8 of bloom 😃 There is no much changes from last week apart from buds getting more dense with pistils changing colour to orange all over. Skywalker is absolutely full of knuckles or “good foxtails” as some of you will say. LemonWalker bending as mad due to bud weight 😍 At this stage both girls are in flush mode getting nothing but plain water. Pinched small stem from each of them to run some pre-test...couldn’t resist haha. Stay tuned for updates 🙌 Video Update Day 5 of week 8 (week14) => check this fist size Budz 😍 ...they are hard as a freaking stone and I’m not able to grab it in my big hands 🙌 That’s the last update before the harvest this weekend. - last two days in light before 48h darkness. Stay tuned as in next couple of weeks last harvest update with reviews and weight results ✊🙌

Had to pull the trellis because watering was getting to difficult. She is doing beautifully, dark intense tones of purple, with just a hint of candy(specifically smells of grape needs IMHO). You did it 420FB, you have a new customer for many years to come. Yall knocked it out of the park on this strain. ✌️ ❤️ 🌳

Ladies need a lot of water, every other day they are drinking 1,2l+nutrients Lollipopping + Scrog done at day 18 now they will hopefully get another boost

week intel: its time to harvest some of plants the ones that is mature enough. indica dominant plants will done first always so we should harvest them first because my base nutrients and one of boosters was salt based, i'll do flushing this week to get some relieve to plants in the last days stresses : flushing Drought stress via watering only one time with flushing this week feeding: day 1 : i flushed them with Advanced Nutrients Flawless finish and adjusted ph day 3 : no more feeding from now on day 5 : no more feeding from now on guide of the week : i harvest in 2 parts : first i harvest top of the branches and will let the lower buds to ripe another week then ill harvest the second wave. indica dominant plants will get done 1 or 2 weeks sooner than sativa dominant plants that will often takes more than 8 weeks so be aware to harvest them sooner. my dry and cure style is this: 3 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 3 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. im happy as hell with this harvest :D.

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno B Week 6 | Elegance in Every Leaf Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of the greatest joys of a phenotype hunt is discovering that every plant has its own personality. Some demand attention with explosive growth. Some race toward the finish line. Others quietly develop into something special without ever asking to be the centre of attention. Cash Express Pheno B belongs to that last group. She isn't the tallest plant in the room. She isn't the fastest. She isn't trying to compete with anyone. She's simply growing exactly as she wants to—and every week she becomes a little more beautiful because of it. 🌿 A Plant That Speaks Through Her Leaves One of the first things that catches my eye every time I visit this lady is her foliage. Large, perfectly formed seven-finger fan leaves stretch confidently toward the light, creating one of the cleanest leaf structures in the entire room. They're deep green. Healthy. Symmetrical. Every leaf almost looks like it was carefully drawn before nature decided to build it. For me, leaves tell an important part of a plant's story. Long before the flowers reach their full potential, healthy foliage tells us that the engine driving everything underneath is working exactly as it should. And this engine is running beautifully. 🌼 The Flowering Story Begins Flower development is now becoming more obvious throughout the canopy. The first clusters of white pistils continue multiplying, and what were small pre-flowers only a week ago are now beginning to resemble true bud sites. This is one of my favourite stages of cultivation. Every day the changes are subtle... Yet when you compare photographs from one week to the next, it's amazing how quickly those tiny flowers begin stacking into something much more impressive. She's still directing a good portion of her energy toward the final stretch, but you can already see that her priorities are changing. Less focus on producing new branches. More focus on building flowers. Week by week, she'll continue shifting her energy away from growing taller and toward creating the dense blooms we're all waiting for. 🍃 Sometimes the Best Training Is No Training This week has been wonderfully uneventful. No defoliation. No heavy training. No major adjustments. Just a little gentle leaf tucking whenever a fan leaf decided to shade a developing flower site. I've learned over the years that these early flowering weeks are often best approached with patience rather than scissors. The plant is making enormous hormonal changes during this transition, and I prefer disturbing her as little as possible while she settles into her new rhythm. Sometimes growers feel the need to do something every day. Sometimes the smartest decision is simply to observe. This week, observation was more than enough. 🍽️ Feeding The nutrition program continues supporting both the final stretch and early flower development. This week's feeding included: • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L Along with small pH adjustments using Lemon Kick and pH Plus whenever necessary. Unlike some of her sisters, Pheno B isn't asking for much more just yet. A few older leaves have begun naturally giving back some stored nutrients, but nothing suggests she's under stress. It's simply another reminder that plants recycle energy where it's needed most. For now, she's happy. And so am I. 🌡️ Environment The flowering room continues running exactly as planned. • Day temperature averaged 29°C • Night temperature remained around 25°C • Relative humidity averaged 60% • Solution temperature stayed close to 24°C • Root zone remained near 21°C • Atmospheric CO₂ averaged 639 ppm With stable environmental conditions and consistent feeding, the plant can dedicate nearly all of her energy to flower production instead of constantly adapting to changing conditions. Consistency is often the secret ingredient behind healthy gardens. 📸 Behind This Week's Photos This week's photographs highlight something I absolutely love about this phenotype. The architecture is incredibly elegant. The internode spacing is balanced. The branching remains clean and open. And those beautiful seven-finger fan leaves frame every developing flower site almost perfectly. The close-up shots reveal fresh pistils reaching confidently into the light, while the full-plant photographs show a structure that should provide excellent airflow throughout flowering. There's a calm confidence about this plant. She isn't trying to impress anyone. She simply looks comfortable being herself. Sometimes those are the phenotypes that surprise you the most by harvest day. 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should mark another exciting step in her journey. I expect the stretch to begin slowing as the flowers take over as the plant's primary focus. Those small clusters of pistils should begin stacking together, giving us our first glimpse of the colas she'll eventually produce. We'll continue with the same philosophy: Minimal interference. Gentle leaf tucking when necessary. Careful observation. And letting the plant decide the pace. Sometimes the best growers aren't the ones who do the most. They're the ones who know when to simply watch nature do what it has perfected over millions of years. 💚 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this adventure.

11/15 Week 13 And things are finishing fast... almost FF10 nuets taken to near max as she is building well and want that to continue. FF9 on water only beginning to get her ready FF11 Fading well it has a few days Again we can expect about 200 grams a plant... or so we hope 😋 Some camera problems ordering another 11/16 FFt-10 Building buds like mad and soaking up the nuets, increased bloom to 12ml/gal ea Pk remains as is see no reason to increase plant wants more Nitrogen and CA FFt-9/11 Continue to finish on PHed water no rush girls just fade away slowly 😏 11/17 Very surprising amount of bud building on the FFt-10 at this late stage. It was the last strain to go into the tent prob a week behind the FFt-9 but still not close 11/19 Bud pics FF10 moving closer still keeping feed as is for now Colors on the FF9 nice surprise good purps and pinks without loofy buds cause those suckers are hard FF11/9 looking good the 9 will go longer than the 11 but there is no rush on either. Nice what you can do when nothing is pressuring you to harvest. 11/20 Will be harvesting a plant every three days now, first will be the FF11-1 (was first in the flower tent) then FF11-2, then FF9, finally FF10 should be ready by then 10 days or so depending on weather. Was going to give them longer but weather is dictating a lot right now and that first FF11 is just ready, all trics white with a few amber Dropped FFt-10 Feed to 10ml/gal ea Bloom A/B 10mk/gal PK will continue to drop it every few days 11/21 Harvest day for FFT-11-1 975 grams wet into dry 11/23 FFT-10s showing no signs of slowing leaving nuets as is Next up is the FF11-2 harvest tomorrow.

This week I added CO2 to the garden. My pH in the DWC dipped to 4.6 which was scary. I knew something was wrong bc usually I'm adding water every 36 hours and it was still alot left. I adjusted it to 6.1 and hopefully she recovers...I must say the dwc is so sensitive compared to soil..good grief. During week 4 they only got hit with nutes once then water throughout the rest of week. Update: I decided to drain the dwc and just put in 1gal of water at 5.8 pH. I'm being extra cautious since it's up in the air if the issue is light burn or nutrient deficiencies. Update: Two days before the end of week 5. The purple punch is doing great so far..glad I took cuts. Ice cream cake is absorbing nutrients but the pH is still dipping to the 4s almost every 6 to 8 hrs. I'm just going to keep adjusting the pH and keep her rolling.

Harvested already

03/12/2019 Day 81 The Dr seems to be concentrating in forming buds but I think she's grown some half centimeter, is she going to touch the ceiling? She has to know that is is confined and the sky is not the limit, at least in her condition. Day 82 (04-12-2019) The shoot at the rear left is almost touching the celiling of the grow tent😨 and i keep on tying other shoots and keeping them the farthest from the burning lights (many leaves' tips are scorched, but fortunately it's just the tip and the bud is still far from that hot point. Other leaves that are close to the lights, well, I took scissors and there's no need to speak further. Look the hard work I'm having with this plant height's issue. Goddammit why can't I have a normal grow like everyone? Day 83 just looking the video and the pics is self explanatory. No further comments 😒 Day 84 Ithe tallest shoot has reached the ceiling and seems to try to keep on growing so she needed to start bending at the very top because she wouldn't get past the tent fabric. Regarding EC, I am using a fertigation solution about 1,3 mS/cm and the runoff EC at 1.5 mS/cm. EC has been kept controlled since I raised fertigation volume to 6 L per fertigation event (1/day), unfortunately this solution containing nutrients goes to waste :( Day 85 07/12 I'lllst the tops that get to touch the ceiling and keep observing and acting as needed. I fear she'll stilll keep going up for a while. Fertigations as usual, got runoff EC 650 ppm today (1.3 ms/cm) which I think it's very good of a value. Day 86 (08/12/2019) Following advice I defoliated and even cut some thin and improductive shoots. Removed a lot of foliage and even supercropped a long tall shoot, I want to see how this high stress technique affects her. Because I plan to keep it doing if other shoots decided to continue growing. I wonder why do shoots continue growing vertical after having passed the light's level. Is it the glow coming from the reflective walls perhaps? Many questions. I decided to take down some tall shoots by suspending little weights near the tip, it seems to work more or less fine. Day 87 luckily the HST seems to have worked fine, the shoots are recovering and point upwards again. The main tip is quite unruly, today I supercropped that tip. Runoff EC is 650 ppm, perfect. Day 92 /14-12-2019) I think that despite her exaggerate growth she's managing to thrive fine with some limitations, buds seems going well. Shoots are still growing vertical but supercropping and resistance seems to have hampered her a while, but now I see she engaged on growing some centimeters more :/ Day 93 two days from starting the 14th week, despite the lights and the heat of this season (added to the lights I had to keep the tent door open for there was 32 ºC inside) the Dr is taking it well, I see the buds foxtailing as I expected, and I'm positive this grow will get to a good end. I'll work day by day to achieve that. Regarding fertigation, I gave her a solution half concentrated (relative to the solutions that I had given her the preceding days) because I noticed salt build-up by the EC measurements. I left run off EC at 800 ppm which is still a bit high for my liking but not excessively. For the amount of runoff I collected today, I see she seems to be drinking a little more.

Welcome to week 10💚

Yummy goodness can't weight to harvest these other plants phenomenal smoke 😋 👌 effects are very medicinal pain relief muscles relaxation creative stoney high nice smooth come down after a slight munchies fest this is one that keeps calling me back to the jar I have about 7 different choices and this jars calling me right now as said phenomenal smoke Fastbuds420 for the Win 🏆

ALL went well, next week I'll start the 2 weeks flush. The smell is great, it's full of tricomes. I think it's going to be a good yield. What do you guys think?

Harvest incoming.

I am only using tap water half soil half perlite no nutes no ph or ppm tester £70 led from Amazon.had problems earlier but realised that I had no ventilation so I drilled 3holes and put 2 fans facing backwards and put a air vent in the other and the seem to be loving it

Semana 4 de flora están a full mis plantitas. Creciendo cada día más y más. Sanitas.

Day 35 - few pics and vids..... everything going along nicely 👍 This is a pretty big update, so i'll add to it over the next few days, as i finish building it all.... i'm building these 2 x SS haze, the full tent, just finishing up the setup..... trimming them, changing solutions to 12/12 and flower..... changed the exhaust fan and filter setup to the better outside the tent method.... and installed 12v CPU computer fan, lol ("alta9" fits in 4in ducting perfectly), drops wattage on extractor fan.... 10w tops... got a few kg of active carbon and making/replacing the carbon filter .... i'll add afew vids of the new setup in afew days... Day 36 - few pics/vid of new tent setup...... "alta 9" fan :) post tomorrow after i finish trimmin and settin up night mode etc...... and into tomorrow we go, lol ... Day 37.... slowly getting there..... little bit more to go... this should make things abit more interesting..... right tank (short babie) has : 19 lts of tap water @18oC + 150 ml -dutch master one gold FLOWER.... 6.4 PH - 1400 PPM left tank has : 19 lts of tap water @18oC + 50 ml of elements a and 50ml of b and 10 ml of nitro and 20ml of Crystalic (molasses/pot) .... 6.5 PH - 1200 PPM more pics / vids of the finished tent setup.... roots, transfer, etc... Day 37 is alot of vids of the clean and change to flower..... edit - day after build noticed left tank (nutrifield) not enough bubbles..... pulled out the 4 air pump and swapped to the 2 x original oxipumps... much better, also to fix the problem with ph goin high, and bubbles not stirin the mix, was to add another 10ml of crystallic and another 5ml of nitro... then pumped both tanks with ph down and set em to 5.8-6.2 - both plants have fully recovered from the big trim, and bounced back within 12-24hrs, post pics/vid in abit..... Day 39 - made a freaky video... was curious about what the plants would see looking up at the lights... the lights and buzzing of air compressors and bubbling tank water, and dazzling lights turned out pretty cool in vid editor, was in selfie mode.... and final vid of the bounceback from trim :) 👍😎
