Evening ladies and genitals, this week is amazingly better than the last few weeks. Reasons are: 1. i upgraded the fan in my grow tent. Its tall and oscillates. 2. I’ve figured out how to get the vapor from the humidifier directly into the tent as you can see in the video. As the extraction fan is running 24/7 it pulls in the air from the only open air intake hole pulling in the vapor. 3. I repotted from the teeny tiny pots into 2 litre pots with Sohum Living Soil. So I've upgraded the soil type. For a beginner like me this releases a lot of internal pressure from worrying about the nutrient deficiencies. With all that said the ladies have responded great. I’ve started to weigh each pot to guage how much water is being evaporated so i dont overwater. Some issues remain on the leaves from my previous overwatering but I’ve learnt that the damaged leaves will stay damaged. You can see the tips are hella bent in 1 pic at the ends. Hopefully it will be OK for the new leaves at least. I cut off damaged leaves on 2 of the girls but left the others. I want to see what happens when they are left to grow naturally and mindful of the fact that if defoliating at not the right intervals will stunt their growth . I will do LST but at the moment i cant cause they're not really big enough yet. Till next time, peace out. 420 right around the corner!

New week! Tips and help from last week, I had around 1500 ppm and I did flush my roots in water and change everything. Now is around 1000 ppm and dropping 150 ppm a day. Did read about water level in DWC and how to increase the grow with water. I had the water almost up to the root or the level of there the basket is. Now I have 1-2 inch (2-5 cm) below where the roots come out. This create air roots. I'm not sure if it's the air roots or the ppm but my flower is boosting. Can se buds grow!! Trimming so I can keep the same hight. Have any tips or rekomandation? Only have one question for next week and this is: it's looking a bit thigth between the buds and all of the leaf is cristal on it. Should I cut some more leaf? And what leaf should I trim? Is so thigth in there. Or will it grow fine?

Week 10 for Wockesha she is finally at her end. All phenos look beautiful with different tones of purple through out the bud. All the Pheno had dense buds. Some phenos had better frost factor and some had better weight factor. Will do a whole plant hang dry for 2-3 weeks and then to a jar cure!

so i put a screen down. the light can only concentrate power in such a way that if i let them grow tall i will just have a huge central cola that stretches, which this was. i trimmed off some of the lower shit and everything that is more than 8cm below the top... would love to get a proper tent, im sure the reflection would boost my lights usefulness.. i persist..nutrients are by feel at the minute.. following bio canna guide but still adding a couple things like a drop or two of calmag or whatnot... now drinking a litre every 3 days. nice buds forming now. switched to flowering nute cycle now.... sort of... mad scientist shit. keeps me occupied.

Not much to tell this week, happy to say that she's been doing well over the last week while she has been flushed with ph'd tap water! She is now getting close to harvest time, I think I might let her flush for a couple of days more before I harvest her😁 She is a little older and further along than the rest of the tent, so she will be the only one to be harvested and I will let the three other run until I see amber trichomes develop on them! I planted her a little earlier than the three others to allow me to use her as my "test dummy" for my first run, and so I could make corrections for the other three early on! But even though she has been my tester and has taken a bit of abuse from time to time while I was still more unsure of everything at the start, she has still turned out way better than I ever had dared to hope for when I started this journey over 100 days ago, and the heavy aroma shes giving off is amazing and she has developed some of the more dense nugs out of my four girls so far! 🙏 But yeah I'm thinking that I will harvest her tomorrow or the day after at the latest to let me get a trail run off on drying before I harvest the other three girls, just to make sure I get that process down! But the next update that I will come with will be after the harvest if things goes to plan, and like I said I am soo excited for that day to come and get my next run started! 😁 Happy growing everyone! and thank you for all the encouragement and comments, it has really helped a lot and I will for sure stay active on the community and make a dairy for my next run too!

Blueberry Muffin – Pheno B | Week 3 The Beautiful Oddball Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure, where twelve cultivars are being documented individually under a 12/12-from-seed schedule. Every phenotype receives its own dedicated diary, allowing us to follow each plant’s journey independently and observe how unique expressions emerge even between sisters sharing the same genetics. This week brought one of the largest environmental adjustments of the entire project so far. The lighting intensity was increased significantly, moving from approximately 370 µmol/m²/s PPFD to 700 µmol/m²/s PPFD at canopy level. Alongside the increase in light, nutrient strength and water consumption also rose to support the accelerating growth rate. The response throughout the room has been overwhelmingly positive. Growth has accelerated, internodes remain compact, and the plants appear eager for more. ⸻ Week 3 Environment 🌡️ Temperature: 27.4°C 💧 Relative Humidity: 55% 💡 PPFD: ~700 µmol/m²/s 🌱 Medium: Plagron Lightmix ? Growing Method: 12/12 From Seed 💦 Water Consumption: ~0.9–1.2L per day Feeding Schedule Days 18 * EC 1.0 * pH 5.99–6.0 * Approximately 1L Days 21 * EC 1.3 * pH 6.0 * Approximately 1.2L As always, consistency remains the goal. Stable environmental conditions allow the genetics to tell their story without unnecessary interference. ⸻ Blueberry Muffin Pheno B While her sister has spent the last week showing near textbook development, Pheno B continues to be the plant that makes me stop, smile, and ask questions. Not because she is perfect. Because she isn’t. And that is exactly why I like her. From the beginning this phenotype has carried a slightly unusual appearance. Certain leaves developed differently, growth patterns occasionally looked a little unconventional, and she never quite followed the same path as her sister. Yet despite all those quirks, she continues moving forward. Week after week. Healthy. Steady. Determined. Looking at her now, it is clear that she is gradually growing out of many of those early abnormalities. New growth is arriving cleaner, stronger, and more structured than before. The center of the plant is becoming increasingly organized, with fresh leaves stacking tightly around the apical growth tip. She remains slightly smaller than Pheno A, but she is far from struggling. In fact, she appears to be finding her rhythm. The canopy has expanded noticeably during the week, internodal spacing remains compact, and the plant is beginning to develop a stronger framework that should support future growth. One of the most interesting observations is how the newer leaves continue to improve with every passing node. The plant seems to be correcting itself naturally, producing increasingly normal foliage as it matures. It’s almost as if she needed a little extra time to figure out who she wanted to become. And honestly, those are often the plants that end up teaching us the most. While Pheno A currently wins the beauty contest, Pheno B wins the curiosity contest. Every time I look at her, I want to see what she does next. ⸻ Measuring Light: Why We Use a Quantum Sensor One of the biggest changes this week involved increasing PPFD levels throughout the room, so this feels like a good opportunity to talk about one of the most useful tools available to modern growers. The Dr. Meter Quantum Sensor To monitor light levels, I use the Dr. Meter Quantum Sensor, a tool designed specifically to measure Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density (PPFD). Rather than measuring brightness the way our eyes perceive it, a quantum sensor measures the photons that plants can actually use for photosynthesis. This is an important distinction. Plants don’t care how bright a light looks to us. They care about how many usable photons are reaching the leaf surface. A quantum sensor allows growers to measure exactly that. Instead of guessing whether a plant is receiving too little or too much light, we can collect real data and make informed decisions. Why PPFD Matters PPFD tells us how many photosynthetically active photons reach a square meter every second. Measured in: µmol/m²/s This information helps answer important questions: * Is the plant receiving enough light to maximize growth? * Is the light intensity limiting development? * Are we approaching levels that could cause stress? * Can nutrient levels be increased safely alongside higher light intensity? This week, measurements showed the plants were capable of handling significantly more light than they were receiving previously. That gave us confidence to increase intensity from approximately 370 PPFD to 700 PPFD, while simultaneously increasing nutrient strength. The plants responded immediately with stronger growth and improved vigor. This is one of the biggest advantages of using a quantum sensor. Instead of guessing. We measure. Then we adjust. And finally we observe how the plant responds. ⸻ Looking Ahead The coming week should reveal even more about Pheno B’s personality. Key areas of interest include: * Continued normalization of new growth * Branch development * Structural differences compared to Pheno A * Response to increased PPFD * Overall vigor and growth rate She may not be the largest plant in the room. She may not be the prettiest. But she is quickly becoming one of the most interesting. And sometimes the plants that don’t follow the script end up writing the best chapters. ⸻ Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this adventure and supporting these diaries. Thank you to the entire GrowDiaries community for creating a space where growers can learn, experiment, and share knowledge together. Thank you to Plagron for providing the nutrition and cultivation support behind this project. Thank you to Zamnesia for the genetics, equipment, and opportunity to document these cultivars from seed to harvest. And thank you to every grower, reader, supporter, and fellow plant enthusiast who takes a moment to stop by, leave a comment, ask a question, or simply follow along. The journey continues. 🌱💚? Growers Love and see you next week, little oddball. I can’t wait to see what you do next.

Zdar Bando. 7 týden květu za mnou. Paldy bobtnání hezký dál. Na bong snad bude. Holky mi dělají radost jen sem musel likvidovat další 3 květy, snad to dopadlo dobře a nebude nic oprcaný. Začínají vonět dost štiplavě je to taková zvláštní vůně těžko to popsat. 😁 Vypadá to že se dostanu až na 10 týden. Už se těším jaký to bude, pěstu zdar.🤘

8/7 watered this morning. Cleaned out a lot of the fan leaves underneath the canopy. 8/5: tonight will be last feed, then planning on flushing for 2 weeks. Prelim. harvest date of about 8/21 given the estimates from Humboldt. Snuck in a couple minutes before the HPS turned on to get some better lighting pictures and a look at the trichomes. They’re basically all milky white. Some amber starting in the fuzz. 8/4: water this morning (should’ve been last night but plants did not appear to complain). 8/2: fed this morning. Smell is getting quite strong.

* harvest: day 134 total. Day 64 of flower. 19 weeks total * dry bud yield: 128gram * Appearance: gorgeous blue/green/purple'ish buds that shine like a diamond * Bud density: 9/10 * Aroma : when you open the jar a gas smell mixed with orange bubbelgum hits you in the face * Taste : orange zest bubbelgum with a strong gas taste * Potency : 8/10 * Kind of high: a nice sativa dominant feeling. With a lot off medicinal effects. It takes your pain away asap and it relaxes the musscles. Also makes you feel happy. * Colour of thrichs at time of harvest: 30% amber 70% milky * Drying time: 10 days in the dry tent, 12 days in the jar * Length of buzz: 2 -3 hours * Good comments: the most beautifull plant i ever grew, really impressed with these genetics. Such a good pain killer and anti depressant! The buds where almost pure oil when i was trimming so i would really recommend it for pressing or hash making. Wil grow this again for sure, its by far the best thing i ever grew
