All plants are down! I am stoked with how the grow went and this strain has performed well. Terps are out of this world - candy - jelly babies, sour worms, Fanta grape and bubblegum stinking up the room. Some pheno's are more forsty then others but it seems we have found a couple keepers to re-test. Next post will be nug shots, weight once all dry. We will also do full cannabinoid testing to determine the potency of some of the phenos which we think are worth testing. Look out for that! It will be the final entry on this log :) Happy growing fam

💜 Week 5 – Purple CousKush Auto (Pheno B) Same Genetics, A Different Story One of the greatest reminders that nature always has the final word is watching multiple phenotypes grow side by side. This Purple CousKush has shared every step of the journey with her sister. The same germination conditions. The same Plagron feeding schedule. The same Future of Grow lighting. The same Mammoth tent. The same 12/12 flowering schedule from seed. Yet she has decided to tell an entirely different story. While some plants rush into flower and others focus on stretch, this beautiful lady has invested her energy into building a compact, incredibly healthy structure before fully committing herself to bloom. She’s taking her time. And I’m perfectly happy to let her. ⸻ 🌱 Plant Development At 66 cm tall, this phenotype has developed into a wonderfully balanced and compact plant with exceptional vigour. The first thing that catches my attention every time I walk into the tent is just how lush she looks. Her foliage is thick, rich green and incredibly healthy, giving her a full appearance despite her more restrained vertical growth. Flowering is now clearly underway. Fresh pistils are appearing at every growing tip and along the internodes, confirming that she’s fully transitioning into bloom. She simply isn’t in any hurry, and that’s perfectly fine. The spacing between nodes remains excellent, allowing light to penetrate deep into the canopy while creating dozens of promising future flowering sites. She’s building the foundations first. The flowers will follow. ⸻ 🌿 Environment & Growing Conditions Like the rest of the Project Blue Tent, environmental conditions remained very stable throughout the week. * 12/12 lighting schedule from seed * Future of Grow Black Series LED providing approximately 850 PPFD * Mammoth Pro grow tent * Day temperatures around 31°C * Relative humidity averaging 72% * CO₂ levels around 639 ppm Despite the warmer summer temperatures, this phenotype has remained calm and vigorous throughout the week. Leaf posture has been excellent, colour remains beautifully uniform, and the plant continues to show absolutely no signs of stress. Healthy roots create healthy plants, and this girl certainly looks like she’s enjoying life. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Program This Purple CousKush continues to be hand-watered rather than connected to the AutoPot system. Growing in a 15 L Plagron Lightmix container, she received approximately 1 litre of nutrient solution per watering. This week’s feeding consisted of: • Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Power Roots – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L The feeding schedule continues to match her needs perfectly. The deep green foliage, steady growth and healthy new shoots all suggest she’s receiving exactly what she requires while gradually shifting her focus from vegetative growth into flowering. Sometimes consistency really is the best strategy. ⸻ 🌸 Phenotype Notes Comparing this plant with her sister perfectly illustrates why I enjoy documenting individual phenotypes instead of treating every plant as if they were identical. They come from the same seed pack. They’ve received the same care. They’ve experienced the same environment. Yet they’re expressing themselves in wonderfully different ways. This phenotype is slightly slower entering flower, but she compensates with an incredibly sturdy frame, beautiful branching and dense, vibrant foliage that gives her a very robust appearance. She’s not behind. She’s simply following her own genetic rhythm. That’s one of the reasons I love growing from seed—every plant has its own personality waiting to be discovered. ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead Over the next week I expect flowering to become much more obvious as the pistils continue multiplying across every branch and the first real bud sites begin to establish themselves. With her compact structure, balanced branching and excellent health, I’m excited to see how she fills out during the coming weeks. Sometimes the slower starters end up becoming the biggest surprises at harvest. We’ll simply keep providing a stable environment, consistent nutrition and plenty of patience while she writes the next chapter herself. ⸻ 💭 Final Thoughts Every phenotype teaches something different. This Purple CousKush reminds me that speed has never been the goal. Health, balance and consistency will always matter far more than racing toward the finish line. Watching her develop has been incredibly enjoyable because she’s never tried to imitate the other plants in the room. She’s simply growing exactly the way her genetics tell her to. As growers, sometimes our best decision is simply to observe, trust the process and resist the temptation to interfere. Nature has been doing this for millions of years. She knows what she’s doing. ⸻ 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this journey and sharing it with me week after week. Your support, encouragement, advice and conversations are a huge part of what makes GrowDiaries such an incredible community. A very special thank you to the amazing companies helping bring this project to life: 💜 Zamnesia for the fantastic genetics. 💜 Plagron for the trusted nutrition. 💜 Future of Grow for the incredible Black Series lighting. 💜 TrolMaster for helping keep every environmental parameter under control. And finally, thank you to every member of the GrowDiaries family. Whether you’re here to learn, share your own experience or simply enjoy watching these plants develop, I truly appreciate every visit, every comment and every conversation. Until next week… Growers Love and happy growing, everyone! 🌱💚

Week 3 By week three, the plant begins to show more structure. Internodal spacing is moderate, resulting in a balanced but slightly open form. Leaf size increases, and the stem thickens gradually. The plant appears healthy overall, though a mild lack of uniformity remains visible in the canopy. Growth feels steady but not particularly energetic.

2024-09-07 This was a very effective Week, it started with Rain an Wind then it turned over to very hot and sunny exactly what we need here. The Outdoor tangie still looks super fresh and green, only minor signs of getting ready the colas are very glitery and you see alot of potential already super frostyhere. the revegetating Plant looks fine too. she produces some flowers.too.

Everything it's perfect

The plant is doing fine, the light has been a bit to close to some buds so light bleaching appeared (Light is raised) Getting close to harvest and the plant smells really sour and citrussy, its amazing.

So, seemingly sudden drop in the health of plant #1. She was bigger than plant #2, but now she's looking dreadful. Lots of spotting and leaf curling. There's some of that on the health(ier) one, but not near as much and it seems to be healing -- and growing! I topped plant #1 because I knew it was risky, but wanted to see what would happen and took a chance with a plant that was already looking a bit unhealthy. From what I can tell, I would definitely believe that it is burn considering that my 1000w LED was just 16 indes away from them for 8 days, since sprouting. I moved em up to 48 inches on day 9 and plant #2 reacted well but plant #1 is only getting worse. It could also be a PH issue, causing a calcium deficiency, but I've been giving them 6.0-6.5 PH treated water for 4 days now... I want to do LST on the health(ier) one, but not sure if it's too early. What do y'all think based on the stem growth?

Flower Week 3

Dried for 21 days. No weight bevor drying because i did a dry trim

productive week, always no excess or deficiencies, everything is fine. I continue my small but regular defoliation and I hope to be able to switch to PK booster in a short time.✌️👍

Vamos familia que ya actualizamos la cosecha de estas zkittelz de Mafia seeds. Vaya flores que se han marcado repletas de tricomas, parecen escarcha y las flores se marcan aromas bien dulces. Es una variedad bastante fácil de cultivar pero al tener un periodo de floración algo más largo, hay que estar pendiente de alimentarlas bien, gracias Agrobeta en mi sala es posible. Temperaturas máximas en 24 y mínimas en 20 y una humedad estable en torno al 36%. Las mantuve 10 semanas, ya las vi bien maduras y ya tenía tricomas ambar así que les di matarile.

First week of flowering went well. See pic descriptions for details or hit us up if you want to know more!

Day 15 Topping applicated ✂️✂️✂️😁

Buds are really setting up nicely. French Macaron smells right on brand... and the Chem Brulee... my god! It smells like a Tropical Rocket Fuel. Amazong. The Pineapple Meatball has a really unique odor, but it is still fairly faint. Hoping that the neem/nute burn didn't somehow affect its resin/terp/bud production. It certainly hasn't seemed to affect the French Macaron and the Chem Brulee! This week, I sprayed 3 times with Dr Zymes, and it completely knocked out the small number of fungus gnats I was dealing with. Also released 4,500 ladybugs, and it's been fun watching them spread and work. Will probably stick with the once-per-week Zymes treatment for the next few weeks.

Well, it's been a few weeks, lol. I'm a super busy guy. So like I said, it did actually kick into flower before but it was only a couple days before reveg. Everything looks normal, so far, lol. We'll see how it grow. I wont be sad if it does speed some, it's feminized!!! That's about it, Happy Growing Everyone ✌️❤️😁🍀🎶👽 EB
