This week they they all took well to being topped. 🔝 ✂️ Temps are a little lower than I'd like in the veg tent but they're still chilling.☀️ I added a small humidifier to the tent to help out with this dry season.💧

👉Last week the plant was showing a little fade, and still had a fair amount of clear trichomes. There were only a scant few fresh pistols and the plant was slowly ripening. This week, after switching to the ripening nutrient mix, I did see the plant gain more typical autumn colors, and I saw the buds plump a little more. There is foxtailing but its frost as it can get. While the bud structure wont be something a dispensary might sell, I have never bought from a dispensary, and all my plants that have foxtailed still gave killer buzz. I am sure the colors are because the tent temps at night were in the mid 60s and perhaps a bit lower at times. Even some cooler temps during the day. The trichomes have pretty much gone mostly cloudy and the plant looks as ready as it can get. I plan on Harvesting either tonight or tomorrow. 👉I switched to the ripening mix this week and was probably a week slow to switching. I continued with the frequent fertigation all week and performed no ‘flushing’ per se. I did give it a couple of H20nly irrigation followed by full strength nutrient fertigation’s. The EC of run off was not spiking, but the pH was dropping noticeably so I used the irrigation and high volume fertigation’s to keep the media pH in the target range of mid to high 5’s. The plants roots are obviously very dense and it takes up to 10+ minutes to give it 3l of solution. 👉The aroma is very strong. It smells of the generic funky stank, with a pleasant sweet note. I vent directly outside and when the breezes are swirling it envelopes the outdoors with the skunky stank my wife hates. She exclaims daily how much it smells of a skunk outside. This makes me happy because I know Im doing it right! The aroma is strong enough that even strong winds can not blow the wonderful aroma away. 👉My phone doenst take the best pix, it distorts the actual color hues and I have adjusted some of them to be more accurate. The phone doesnt adjust to the grow lights to true colors. I will be harvesting the plant tommorow. so Next update will be when all harvest and cure data is complete in 6 weeks.

What a crazy few weeks ! Got all settled in with the current madness going on in the world. The plants are flowering big time and have a really nice smell. @MarsHydro really put together a good light with the SP250 model and the plants have loved them the whole grow. No trimming this week, just a little foliar feeding when I get to pop by and check them. Feeding is still basically the suggest on the general hydroponic charts. Happy growing and thanks for checking my grow out

Hello everybody,beginning week 7 with a nice boost. Im starting to see a lot of growth on the main and side branches. Also flowers are starting to show up. Now using Top crop nutrients. I bought a Ph regulator, now watering at 6.5 Accordingly to the breeder only 18 days are left to harvets. What do you guys think? Will she be ready? Im thinking am probably gonna have to wait at least on more week.

💚 Amnesia Haze Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno B Week 9 | The Tiny Pot That Refuses to Be Tiny 🌱💚 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! I think we have reached the point where I have to officially admit something. This girl is ridiculous. 😂 Not the plant. The pot. She's standing there, proud and tall, at around 135 cm, carrying herself like a perfectly respectable flowering plant... while sitting in only 11 litres of soil. Eleven. Litres. At this point, every time I look at her container, I honestly wonder: Where the hell are all those roots? 😂 Because whatever is happening inside that little pot... it's working. And working hard. 🌱 The Smallest Pot Is Still the Biggest Surprise When we started this experiment, the 11-litre container was something I was genuinely curious about. Most of the other plants in this room are sitting in larger containers. Pheno B got the little one. And I wanted to see what would happen. Well... Now I know. Apparently, what happens is: The plant doesn't care. 😂 She's not behaving like a plant restricted by a tiny container. She's not behaving like a plant struggling to support a large canopy. She's not behaving like a little plant at all. She's behaving like a plant that has decided: "That's my pot. That's enough. Now give me water." And then asks again. And again. 💧 The Thirsty Girl This is probably the characteristic that has fascinated me the most. This little pot is demanding attention. As she continues growing and flowering, her water consumption has become something I simply can't ignore. I'm having to irrigate her twice a day to keep up with what she's demanding. Think about that for a second. An 11-litre pot. A plant around 135 cm tall. And she's drinking as if she's sitting in a much larger root zone. That's what makes this phenotype so interesting. The container is small. The plant isn't. And the appetite certainly isn't. 😂💚 🔬 What Is Happening Down There? Of course, I can only speculate about what is happening inside the substrate. But looking at the plant's behaviour, one thing seems very clear: That little container is being used. The plant is maintaining a large canopy. She's continuing to flower. She's maintaining strong, healthy foliage. And she's demanding frequent irrigation. That makes me wonder just how extensively that small volume of substrate has been colonized by roots. I can almost picture it down there: No empty seats. No vacancy. Fully booked. Roots everywhere. 😂🌱 And that's probably one of the most valuable lessons this phenotype has given me. Container volume is important... but it isn't the only story. 🌿 Small Pot. Big Plant. This is the part that still makes me smile. If you showed me the plant without showing me the pot, I would never guess she was growing in only 11 litres. She's tall. She's beautifully structured. She's carrying plenty of healthy foliage. And the flowering sites continue developing throughout the plant. She doesn't look like a plant that is apologizing for her root volume. Quite the opposite. She looks confident. She looks established. She looks like she owns the place. And then you look down... 11 L. 😂 It's almost like growing a clone in a Solo Cup... except somebody forgot to tell the plant that she's supposed to stay small. 🌸 Flowering Continues While the container story is hilarious, the flowers are the real reason we're watching her. And she's continuing to progress beautifully. The flowering sites are becoming more established, the structure is becoming increasingly defined, and the plant is moving deeper into the flowering cycle with plenty of healthy green still supporting the development. The photographs this week show that progression nicely. There is a beautiful contrast between the mature foliage and the developing flowers. The pistils remain prominent. The flowers continue building. And the plant still has that characteristic balance that made me interested in this phenotype from the beginning. She's not trying to be her sister. She's doing her own thing. And she's doing it very well. 🍃 Still Lush. Still Proud. One of the things I really appreciate about this girl is that the small pot hasn't stopped her from looking like a proper, healthy plant. She's still lush. She's still green. She's still vigorous. She's still producing. And she's still standing proud. There are no apologies here. No: "Sorry, I'm in the small pot." No. She's more like: "Yes, I'm in the small pot. And?" 😂 That's the personality of Pheno B. ✂️ No Need to Turn Her Into Someone Else I'm continuing to look at her as an individual phenotype rather than comparing her to what another plant might be doing. That's been one of the biggest lessons of this entire 8×8 Adventure. The plants don't read the manual. They don't care what the other phenotypes are doing. And they certainly don't care what we think they should look like. Pheno B has created her own balance. She's developed her own architecture. She's found her own rhythm. So my job is simply to observe, document and respond to what she actually shows me. And right now... she's showing me a very healthy, very hungry little giant. 💧 The Root-Zone Lesson This girl has also changed the way I think about small containers. Not because I suddenly believe that small pots are better. Quite the opposite. If anything, this experiment has shown me how much more attention a small root volume can demand. A smaller container gives you less buffering capacity. Less room for water. Less room for nutrients. Less margin for error. And that means you have to pay attention. With Pheno B, that attention has become particularly obvious because the plant is consuming what is available so quickly. She's basically turned the 11-litre container into a full-time job. 😂 And that's an enormous lesson. 🧠 The Lesson: I'm Not Doing This Again And now we arrive at my conclusion. After watching this girl grow... After watching her reach approximately 135 cm... After watching her flower... After watching her demand irrigation twice a day... After watching that tiny container apparently become a completely packed root zone... I have learned something very important. I'm not doing small pots in soil again. 😂 At least... not voluntarily. Because this is ridiculous. The plant keeps growing. The plant keeps drinking. The plant keeps demanding. And I'm standing there looking at this tiny pot thinking: "How are you possibly fitting all of that in there?" 😂🌱 But that's precisely why I'm glad I did the experiment. Because now I know. 💡 Same Room. Same Adventure. Different Lesson. And once again, this is exactly what makes the 8×8 Adventure so much fun. Twelve plants. One room. One general growing philosophy. One 12/12-from-seed experiment. And every phenotype finds a different way to teach me something. Pheno B decided hers would be: "Never underestimate a small root zone." She's been teaching me about plant size versus container size. About irrigation demand. About root-zone management. About genetic differences. And about the fact that sometimes the plant completely ignores what you thought the experiment was going to show you. I thought I was testing a small pot. Instead, the plant tested me. 😂💚 🌡️ Current Conditions The current GrowDiaries data shows: 🌸 Flowering: Week 9 📏 Height: 135 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 🌬️ CO₂: 639 ppm ? Pot size: 11 L 💧 Watering: approximately 1.2 L per plant / 24h in the current log, with irrigation frequency requiring two watering events The environment remains consistent. And that consistency makes the behaviour of this phenotype even more interesting. Same room. Same conditions. Tiny pot. Big plant. 📸 This Week's Gallery I took another good look at this girl through the camera this week, and I think the photographs capture her personality perfectly. The full-plant photographs show that she's absolutely not a small plant. The closer shots show the developing flowers and healthy foliage. And then there are those photographs where you can see the relationship between her size and her container. That's the photograph that tells the whole story. 135 cm of plant. 11 litres of soil. 😂 It's almost comical. But it's also fascinating. Because this isn't a little plant surviving in a tiny container. This is a substantial flowering plant that has somehow made that little root zone work incredibly hard for her. 🌱 The Little Pot That Could If I had to rename this phenotype today, I think I'd call her: The Little Pot That Could. Because she keeps proving that she can. She can grow. She can flower. She can build. She can drink. She can demand. And she can apparently turn a tiny container into a very busy underground city. 😂🌱 She's one of the most educational plants in this entire run. Not necessarily because she's the biggest. Not because she's the fastest. But because she's making me question assumptions I thought I already understood. And that's exactly what a good experiment should do. 🔮 Looking Ahead We're now entering another interesting stage of the flowering cycle. I'll continue watching her flower development closely. I'll continue paying attention to the root-zone behaviour. And, most importantly... I'll continue trying to keep up with this girl's thirst. 😂 Because apparently, 11 litres is enough for her. I just need to keep convincing myself of that. Every. Single. Day. 💚 Small Pot. Big Lesson. Pheno B started this adventure as the plant with the smaller container. Today, she's standing around 135 cm tall, flowering beautifully and demanding irrigation with the appetite of a plant that apparently believes she's growing in the ground. And I absolutely love it. Because this is why we experiment. Sometimes the result confirms what you expected. Sometimes it surprises you. And sometimes it looks you straight in the face and says: "You thought this little pot was going to stop me?" 😂💚 Well... No. Apparently not. She keeps standing. She keeps growing. She keeps flowering. She keeps drinking. And she keeps teaching me. One thing is certain: The pot may be tiny. The plant is definitely not. And after this experience... I have a feeling my future soil containers are going to be considerably bigger. 😂🌱 🙏 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure.

Growers Love, my friends! 💚🌱

So now they have both been chopped down and are hanging to dry. I was slightly unhappy with the density of Cali Snow and wonder if I should of let her go another couple of weeks. Or maybe she didn’t have enough room. Grapefruit however has some of the biggest buds I’ve grown. So it’s all good. Just got to get them dry and manicured now.

The plant on the right got chopped down the hairs were 90% dark brown while left was fully white last week when it got taken down it had only one day flush. This plant I will flush for a week and see which is better. It has decent size buds all the way to the bottom but this one growing still doesn't have as many crystals as the harvested plant which was definitely cut down way to early 😕 shame it must have forced to finish early from shock when I snapped a main branch clean off. This plant I will flush with plain filtered water for 7 days and even if it doesn't have as much crystals as the other plant, the bud size is 2x-3x the size of the plant that was cut down last week so I hope they will look a lot better size wise after they shrink when they are cut down and dried. I have also noticed some medium sized fan leads turning from green into a beautiful dark purple colour over the last 2-3 days slowly and it's spreading to other leaves the buds on this plant are also purple bits it's hard to see on here but looking sweet so far I have uploaded pic of the frost one which has been drying for a week now

Growing well into week 6ish of flower, had quite a bit of burn come through but the buds are stacking up well! Stickier and louder every day.

16.08.23-41 дня от каски , никаких манипуляций кроме ежедневных фертегаций раствором удобрений не производится 16.08.23-день 47 - почки растут и радуют ) Этот малыш чудо ! Изначально начал расти с двумя головами (топпинг я не делал )🤡

Do-Si-dos auto is doing well. She had been growing really good. I did a solution change on her 2 days ago. I switched her to blooming nutrition then. She is looking ready to stretch and flower. Thank you Zamnesia seeds, Athena, and Medic Grow. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Still 3 plant in the tent at the moment , 2 of them are harvested and drying right now :) another should be ready for harvest this week :) I do have a plant that seems to be late compared to the other , although she is now massive compared to her sisters

Lunes 18 de marzo 2024, 3 de 3, germinación exitosa, entramos en fase de plántula 🌱, alumbramos con 100w directos, mantenemos en 18/6. No daremos nutrientes hasta el transplante.

wow! friends my tent 100cm x 100cm x 200cm is completely full! it is my first experience with photoperiod and I was not very prepared for it! They look great with a nice green color. I hope for the best and will continue to work hard! like and leave tips!

Hey guys! New week, here we are! As always, every Sunday is cleaning day. Took everything again from the tent, washed the saucers. Was also time to cut down some leaves as it was starting to look very bushy and hard for the light to get through it. During that time, came across with some bugs under the foliage, which isn't a great sign for sure. Not to mention the fruit flies that move in and are making my life a little chaos. Reducing now the RH a bit, and watering now on every 72h instead of 48h to keep the grow as dry as possible. Increasing the ventilator speed was another attempt, it so much air circulating should be hard for them to make a living inside. Just put now more of those fly traps and will add a couple glasses of cider vinegar here and there, as it attracts most of the flying things with success. Note that some plants are yellowing and that's never a good sign. Though for few weeks it was Nitrogen deficiency, but after increasing it and the CalMag values, the problem persists, so I'm inclined for something bug related. Besides that, temps are still very stable, RH was changed, now to 40% tops, and the light went a little lower to get it closer to the plants - always with the light burn effect in mind. 40cm is the line between the tops and the lamp. Flowering is looking good, buds are forming well and seems that's gonna be a good ending if I can keep the bugs under control. She's on pre-flower, switched the nutrients and increased a bit the feeding volume. That's all folks, have a great week

Cut 2 leaves x plant

She looks as healthy as can be,super beautiful strain to grow,she's ina super soil full of life in a 15l pot,let's see how she keeps developing.
