Hello guys I’m sorry that I missed one week, the last week when she turned pink! Day 101 - harvest day, I had to wet trim my plant because i have problems with the humidity, it’s 98% rh outside and raining like hell. I haven’t invested in a dehumidifier yet didn’t think I had to use one🤦‍♂️🏽 Day 103 - day 3 drying Day 104: today I hade to cut the buds from the branches because my rh is to high hahaha! 😃 Day 105: I put my buds to jars today. I had a total of 124g trimmed buds! Day 106: had to put my buds outside the jars for 12hr for now to start with, had them over night and rh was 70% in the jars… having them now for drying again in 55%-60% rh

SUCSESS! I now know for a fact that the pollen did its job. I am 2-3 weeks out from pulling the plug on the lights and giving them the axe. looks like some are starting to mature so I will let them cruse on auto pilot for the next 3 week just giving them plain water PH 6.0 this should use up the dry nuites in the coco and work as a flush as well. Some nutrient burn from the last blast feeding, but I can live with it. I think my PPM meter is out of calibration and it gave me a lower reading than what was in the feeding. I'm pretty happy my first pollen chucking experiment worked. This will be a Feminized S1 IBL " inbred line" The original female that was sprayed with the CS never got pollenated. the other 2 were by me 2 branches each, some may have popped in the tent before. I will find out how many buds got knocked up in 3 weeks. The clones will have some buds on them seedless. so that's it for now. I'm in the home stretch in reality July 17th or so should be the finish line including drying time. soooooo close.😍

26/10 ci elle pouvait murire vite maintenant sa m'arrangerai. Elle m'oblige a rester en 12/12 et c'est restrictif. 🤨 27/10 vite mais bien. 😉 29/10Je me doutais bien que l'humidité allait monté. 😕 31/10 elles deviennent carnivore pour halloween.😈 Enfin.. demain ou après demain elle a un rendez-vous avec le sécateur. 🤤 01/11 le capteur d'humidité est mort 😅 En attente d'un neuf, je mets l'humidité a vue de nez.😬 🤤 elle a l'air terriblement bonne.👌♥️♥️

Bought clones that were vegged for four weeks and are now in day five of flowering. I suspect one of the plants is a different strain and not Pineapple Express but we'll see.

Day 35 of flower

Bonne reprise depuis la semaines dernière, du fait que j’ai tailler les feuilles, les secondaires se sont plus développés, il forme une belle canope actuellement Là floraison devrait pas tardé à arriver, on est actuellement à 14h d’ensoleillement quotidien , plus qu’à attendre que le sexe se déclare Pas de problème à déclarer, elle semble en très bonne santé, belle couleur de feuille, pas de tache, structure solide Elle commence à avoir une bonne odeur, j’aime beaucoup le parfum qu’elle dégage. En plus comme j’ai de la menthe marocaine dans le pots si dessous, ça se mélange très bien les deux ensemble. J’ai hâtes de pouvoirs faire un thé mauve mutant marocain avec ses deux beau bébé qui poussent

Welcome to Week 6 of the Fast Buds Lemon Pie Auto grow! These plants seem constantly hungry so I’ve increased the fertilizer again to 3.75 mls per gallon with every feeding. So I water every fourth day- 3 litres per plant which equals 0.75 of a litre per plant per day. But when I water, I air bubble my jugs using a fish pump to dechlorinate my water while adding some bonus oxygen. I use three 1 gallon milk jugs to hold my water and when I feed- I only add fertilizer to two of the three jugs. I use the plain, PH’d water first and then continue with the fertilized water adding up to a 25/75 ratio of plain water to fertilized water with every feeding. So far so good as these hungry ladies seem to be thriving and tolerating the increase nicely. Defoliating as needed. Thanks for stoppin by… 🤓

💎 Black Diamond Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno B Week 9 | The Other Beast 💎🔥 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! Well... Her sister is doing her thing. And if you've been following this adventure, you already know what that means. Pheno A is in full beast mode. 😂💎 She's massive. She's loaded. She's throwing flowers everywhere. And she's making sure nobody forgets she's in the room. But then I look at her sister... And I have to smile. Because Pheno B is also a beast. Just a different kind. And that's exactly what makes these two so fascinating. Same genetics. Same room. Same light. Same nutrition. Same irrigation. Same environmental conditions. Both beautiful. Both vigorous. Both now cleaned up with some selective defoliation. Both entering this increasingly exciting stage of flowering. And yet... very, very different. That's phenotype hunting. And I absolutely love it. 🌱 One Room. Two Black Diamond Stories. The 8×8 Adventure was never about making twelve plants look identical. Quite the opposite. The whole point was to give different genetics and phenotypes the same ecosystem and then watch what they decide to do with it. Twelve plants. One room. 12/12 from seed. One general nutritional strategy. One environmental strategy. One lighting ecosystem. And then... genetics take over. Black Diamond Pheno A has developed one expression. Black Diamond Pheno B has developed another. They're sisters. But they're definitely not twins. 😂💎 And at Week 9, that difference is becoming impossible to miss. 💎 The Other Beast Last week, I was talking about Pheno B as the quieter sister. The more reserved phenotype. The one that wasn't necessarily trying to dominate the room. Well... I may need to revise that description slightly. 😂 Because this girl has been steadily building. And now? She's a beast too. Standing around 160 cm, she's developed into a beautiful, substantial flowering plant. But her strength isn't expressed exactly like her sister's. Where Pheno A seems to throw herself into flower production with almost reckless enthusiasm, Pheno B has that more controlled, elegant architecture. She's still tall. She's still heavily branched. She's still carrying flowers throughout her structure. She's still becoming increasingly frosty. She's just doing it in her own way. And that's what I want to document. Not which sister is “better.” But how differently two phenotypes can express themselves when everything around them is kept so similar. ✂️ The Beast Got a Little Grooming This week, just like her sister, Pheno B received some selective defoliation. Again... Nothing extreme. We're not trying to strip the plant down. We're simply opening some space where the canopy has become crowded. A few leaves needed to come out. Some areas benefited from additional breathing room. And as flowering progresses, maintaining a sensible balance between foliage, airflow and flower visibility becomes increasingly important in a room containing this many plants. The goal isn't to change her personality. It's to reveal it. And I think that's exactly what happened. After the cleanup, you can appreciate the structure much more clearly. The flowering sites become easier to see. The branches become easier to follow. And suddenly you realize just how much she's actually carrying. 🌿 Similar Sisters. Very Different Personalities. This is probably my favourite part of this week's update. Put Pheno A and Pheno B next to each other and you immediately know they're related. There are similarities. The overall flower development. The vigorous growth. The healthy foliage. The general Black Diamond character. But then you start looking closer... And the differences appear. Their architecture isn't the same. Their flower distribution isn't exactly the same. Their proportions aren't the same. Their way of occupying the room isn't the same. Their personalities aren't the same. And that's the magic. Same family. Different handwriting. One sister says: "Give me the whole tent." The other says: "I'll take my space, thank you very much." 😂💎 And somehow... both are absolutely beautiful. 🌸 Flower Development Is Getting Serious At this point in the flowering cycle, the flowers are becoming increasingly defined. The calyxes are stacking. The pistils remain abundant. The developing buds are gaining structure and volume. And the resin is becoming much more obvious. Looking through this week's photographs, that's one of the first things that catches my eye. She's getting frostier. The sugar leaves are beginning to disappear underneath the resin. The developing flowers are becoming increasingly coated. And we're still watching that transformation happen week by week. This is where the earlier weeks of growth start paying off. The branches we watched develop. The flowering sites we watched appear. The structure we watched form. Now they're all becoming flowers. And that is incredibly satisfying to watch. ❄️ The Frost Is Arriving I particularly like the close-ups this week. You can see that the resin coverage is becoming much more apparent across the developing flowers and sugar leaves. She's not finished. We're not at the end of the story. But the direction is very clear. She's getting frosty. And I have a feeling that the coming weeks are going to make these photographs even more interesting. This is one of those moments where the plant starts changing visually in a way that's immediately noticeable. Every update seems to bring another layer. More structure. More resin. More density. More personality. 🍃 Healthy Green, Beautiful Structure One of the things I continue to appreciate about Pheno B is her overall appearance. She's maintaining that rich, healthy green. The foliage remains vigorous. The plant has enough leaves to support continued flower development while still responding well to the selective cleanup we've given her. And this is important. Defoliation isn't the objective. A healthy, functional plant is the objective. If a leaf is doing its job, that's valuable. If removing a leaf improves the overall structure of a crowded canopy, that can also be valuable. It's always a balance. And with this girl, I think we've found a nice middle ground. She's still lush. She's still green. She's still unmistakably herself. But now there's a little more room to appreciate what she's building underneath. 💡 Light From Above and Below The lighting experiment continues to be particularly interesting with these two sisters. The main Future of Grow lighting provides the primary overhead illumination. The Lumiflora under-canopy lighting adds another layer of usable light lower within the plant. And with Pheno B's architecture, there's plenty to observe. She's tall enough that different parts of the plant naturally experience different light levels. At the same time, her structure isn't identical to Pheno A's. So once again, the same lighting system is interacting with a different phenotype. That's exactly what I want from this experiment. Not assumptions. Observation. We give them the same opportunity. Then we watch how differently they use it. 💧 Feeding the Black Diamond The flowering nutrition continues according to the same general program used throughout the room. 🌸 Terra Bloom — 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds — 1 ml/L ✨ Green Sensation — 1 ml/L 🍯 Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L 🍋 Lemon Kick — 0.03 ml/L Current solution is around pH 6.0 with an EC of approximately 2.0 mS/cm. Watering is around 1.3 L per plant / 24h. And once again, the important part is consistency. Pheno B isn't receiving some secret recipe that her sister doesn't get. She's living in the same ecosystem. And yet... she is expressing herself differently. That's the information I'm interested in. 🌡️ Current Conditions Current conditions for Week 9: 🌸 Flowering: Week 9 📏 Height: 160 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 💧 Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 🌬️ CO₂: 636 ppm ? Pot size: 15 L 💦 Watering: ~1.3 L per plant / 24h The environment remains stable. And that's exactly what allows the comparison between phenotypes to become so interesting. The environment stays relatively constant. The plants write the differences. 📸 This Week's Gallery The photographs this week really show why this girl deserves her own spotlight. The wider shots show her overall architecture. She's tall. She's developed. She's carrying flowers throughout her structure. And after the cleanup, those flowers are much easier to appreciate. The close-ups tell the other part of the story. Fresh pistils. Developing calyxes. Increasing resin. More defined flower structure. More frost. And then you look at her sister... And you realize: These two really are very different. Similar enough that you immediately know they're related. Different enough that you could never confuse one personality for the other. And honestly? That's exactly what I hoped this experiment would show. 💎 The Sisterhood of the Beast I think we can officially say it now. Both Black Diamond sisters are beasts. Pheno A is doing her thing. Pheno B is doing hers. Both have been cleaned up. Both are carrying serious flowers. Both are getting increasingly frosty. Both are looking beautiful. But they are absolutely not the same plant wearing different labels. 😂💎 And that's the beauty of it. You can give two sisters the same room, the same treatment and the same opportunity... and they'll still find their own way. 🔮 Looking Ahead Now I'm watching for the same things I've been watching across the rest of the room: 🌸 Flower swelling ❄️ Increasing resin production 🌿 Continued canopy health 💎 Development of the lower flowers 🍃 Response to the selective defoliation 🔬 Overall maturation And, of course... I'm watching the sisters. Because now that both are entering this heavier flowering stage, the comparison is becoming even more fascinating. Will Pheno B continue building at her own steady rhythm? Will the differences between them become even more pronounced? Will the flowers develop differently as they mature? That's what we're here to find out. 💚 Let This Girl Shine I think this girl has earned her own moment. She's not Pheno A. And she doesn't need to be. She's Black Diamond Pheno B. She's developed her own architecture. Her own rhythm. Her own flower distribution. Her own personality. And now she's showing us another version of what this genetic line can produce. Her sister may be running around the room in full beast mode... but this girl? She's right there with her. Just in her own style. 😂💎🌿 So we cleaned her up. We opened some space. We gave her a little room to breathe. And now... let's watch her shine. Because she's earned it. 💎 Final Thoughts Week 9 is another reminder of why I love this 8×8 Adventure so much. Two Black Diamond plants. Same genetics. Same room. Same environment. Same general feeding. Same lighting. Same irrigation. And still... two completely different stories. Pheno A is explosive. Pheno B is more composed. Pheno A seems determined to turn everything into a cola. Pheno B has her own way of building. But both are beautiful. Both are vigorous. Both are becoming increasingly frosty. Both needed a little cleanup. And both are showing us just how much personality can exist inside the same genetic line. That's phenotype hunting. You don't tell the plant what story to tell. You create the conditions... and listen. And this girl is speaking very clearly now. "I'm not my sister." "I'm my own beast." And you know what? I absolutely love that. Let's make her shine. 💎💚🌿 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure and coming back every week to watch these personalities develop. Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving growers a place to document, compare, learn and share these journeys. Thank you to Zamnesia for providing the Black Diamond genetics that gave us these two fascinating sisters. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the plants throughout this adventure. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for the main lighting driving the room. Thank you to Lumiflora for bringing the under-canopy lighting into the experiment and giving us another dimension to observe. And thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone reading, commenting, asking questions and following these girls week after week. Two sisters. One genetic line. One room. One experiment. Very similar. Very, very different. And now... two beautiful beasts. 💎🔥 Let's make this one shine. Growers Love! 💚🌿💎

Going off what other people say about 2x-3x growth during the preflower stretch I decided it's time to flip!

My discovery of 2024. Amazing plant! Huge, smelly, kush-y colas! Super easy grow, zero grief and nugs the size of baseball bat - just WOW! Magnificent!

Day 71. Took down all yellowing leaves, she is fading, but smell is nice, bulking up slowly and i am happy with how everything goes ... That girl was under Mars TS1000 and light did its job PERFECTLY ! Still doubt, was it good decision to grow without food, overall look a bit meh ;))) 3 liters of 6.3 ph water in. Day 76. 3 liters in, she was most thirsty from all 3. Started to fade rapidly like Icd few weeks ago, but looks okeish, still needs like 3 -4 weeks ... Happy Growing !!!

Surprise Surprise 🎁. She's turning purple

Week 8 I started flushing this week. I’m using the green planet nutrient chart and it says flush using Rezin and Liquid Weight. The EC was 650 going in and 1500 runoff. PH going in was 6.5 PH runoff was 6. I’m using tap water that is around 360 EC coming out the tap. I’m going to flush for one more week. The tricomes on the purple plant are actually purple. First time I’ve ever seen that.

This strain is very forgiving to say the least and would definitely grow it again. Only 10.5 grams away from 2 oz. I could’ve definitely gotten more out of these girls if I didn’t have two other plants jammed in a 2x4 grow space. I’m happy with my results. This strain is very loud with hints of lemons and gas. Highly recommended!

Thank you for checking out this grow.

Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grows First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable theme in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this CBD Fast Eddy plant from Royal queen seeds will turn out. CBD Fast Eddy Automatic is combining Cheese x Juanita la Lagrimosa x Ruderalis, Fast Eddy is a rapid growing, flavourful, and CBD-rich auto strain that goes from seed to harvest in 8-9 weeks, produce generous yields, and induce a clear, mellow, and most importantly, functional high. THC: 9% CBD: High Yield Indoor : 400 - 450 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 80 - 130 gr/plant Height Indoor: 60 - 100 cm Height Outdoor: 80 - 120 cm Flowering: 6 - 7 weeks Harvest month: 8-9 weeks after sprouting Genetic Background: Cheese x Juanita la Lagrimosa x Ruderalis Type: Sa 50% In 40% Ru 10% Effect: Clear, Painrelief Climate: Mild .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Update 2017-08-15. Both seeds have germinated and planted in small pots inside the humidity dome. I'm so glad it worked so well and now it's just hoping they'll start growing and become 2 big healthy girls :) ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-16. I have mixed my own soil today. Its 40% sieved peat harrow H2-H4 0-30 mm, 45% sieved peat harrow H4-H6 0-30 mm. 5% sand and 10% of compost soil. And i use 15% of perlite and mix it all together. ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-20. These girls are much slower to germinate and to start growing than the other 6 girls I started at the same time. One of the germinated seeds split in half, so I had to take a new seed and germinate it. It took 2 days. It was just a smal taproots after germination with this strain as opposed to my Fastbuds cbd. But I hope everything goes well from now and that they live up to their name, Fast Eddy. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ Update 2017-08-21. New pics. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-08-22. Nr1 dident make it and died. Started germinate a new seed to get another Nr1. .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-08-27. Nr 1 is in a small pot in humidity dome and i hope shes going to break the surface soon. Nr 2 is slow but doing fine. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-28. Nr2 is transplanted in 15 liter autopot. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. New movie of the girls Nr2. Its no water for 3 days now so the roots develop more and match the plant above the soil. The temp controlled fan is awesome, its easy to set what temp you like to have in the room. Right now its 28 celcius. And humidity is 56%. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added a movie. Everything is looking great right now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-08-31. 3 New pics. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-09-01. New pics and a video of the grow room from today.

Just trying to bend some branches and defoliate some bud blocking leaves. Getting close to starting a flush as she should be done in around 2 weeks. The tropical fruity funk is really some unique and great smelling can't wait to see how the buds fatten up. Happy growing 🌴

Day 50. They are flowering !!! Plant A is taller and starting to run !!! Drop her down a bit and raised plant B to keep even canopy. Yesterday they got nute blast, close to 850 ppm. Planing plain water and one more heavy feed this week. Trimmed bottoms a bit, few sucker branches and few leaves gone. Happy Growing !!!
