🌱 Passion Fruitz #5 — Week 4 | The Underdog Every grow has its own story, and this week the spotlight belongs to the only remaining Passion Fruitz in Folder #5. Originally this project started with two phenotypes, Plant A and Plant B, but sometimes nature has other plans. One seedling didn’t make it through the early stages, leaving this beautiful girl to carry the Passion Fruitz banner on her own. Instead of seeing it as a setback, I decided to embrace it. Every plant deserves its chance to tell its own story. And what a beautiful story she’s already writing. ⸻ Unlike several of her sisters, this phenotype started life at a slower pace. She received exactly the same treatment as every other plant in the room: • 12/12 from seed 🌱 • Same Future of Grow LED intensity and PPFD • Same Plagron Terra feeding schedule • Same watering routine • Same environment • Same temperature and humidity • Same love and attention Yet genetics always have the final word. Some plants explode immediately… Others spend extra time building an exceptional root system before putting all their energy into vegetative growth. Looking at her structure now, I believe she’s doing exactly that. The stem is thickening beautifully, the internodal spacing remains compact, and every new set of leaves arrives larger than the previous one. She isn’t struggling. She’s preparing. ⸻ One detail immediately caught my attention this week. Her leaves are absolutely gorgeous. Wide, symmetrical, deep green, perfectly flat and beautifully formed, giving her an incredibly healthy appearance. Every new leaf unfolds with confidence, showing excellent vigor and no signs of deficiencies or nutrient stress. Sometimes the slower plants end up becoming the strongest ones once flowering begins, and watching this phenotype develop is becoming one of the most interesting parts of the project. ⸻ 🌿 Environment The room continues running exactly as planned. • Temperature: 33°C day / 25°C night • Relative Humidity: 63% • Root Zone Temperature: 21°C • Nutrient Solution: 26°C • pH: 6.1 • EC: 1.35 mS/cm • CO₂: 639 ppm Even with the warmer summer temperatures, the environment remains remarkably stable, allowing every phenotype to express itself under identical conditions. ⸻ 💜 Feeding Schedule This week she received the Plagron Terra program: • Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L • Power Roots — 1 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L The feeding remains intentionally gentle, encouraging healthy root expansion before increasing nutrient demand later in the cycle. At this stage, patience is far more valuable than pushing nutrients. ⸻ 🌱 Development She currently stands around 25 cm tall. While she’s smaller than some of the other Passion Fruitz phenotypes, her architecture is exactly what I like to see. Compact. Balanced. Healthy. Every node is stacking tightly, giving the impression that once stretch begins she’ll produce a dense, manageable structure that’s perfect for indoor cultivation. Growth has noticeably accelerated over the last few days, making me think she’s beginning to settle into her rhythm. Will she remain the smallest? Maybe. Will she surprise everyone later? Very possibly. That’s one of the reasons I love growing from seed. Every phenotype writes its own story. ⸻ 💚 Final Thoughts Not every champion starts in first place. Some quietly build their foundation while everyone else steals the spotlight. This Passion Fruitz may have started slower than her sisters, but she’s showing every sign of becoming an exceptionally healthy and vigorous plant. Whether she stays compact or suddenly catches up over the coming weeks doesn’t really matter. Right now she’s exactly where she needs to be. Healthy plants don’t need to win races. They just need time. ⸻ As always, thank you to Plagron for the incredible nutrition, Zamnesia for making this amazing project possible, and to everyone following this 12/12-from-seed adventure from the very beginning. Your support, comments, advice and encouragement make this journey even more rewarding. See you all next week, and let’s discover together what this little underdog has planned for us. 🌱💚

My black cherry gushers already had some red lines running down the strems the leaves are very round and remind me of a plant I grew one time that had dragons blood. I think this plant is gonna be a very interesting one in the end It’s day 41 from seed and all of the plants are really thriving

Hi today I realized that the plant is a male, and it came out autoflowering being an f2 of DonDiablo that in F1 a cross of a photodependent female and an autoflowering male there was a 25% chance that it develops if an autoflowering, but or decided not to keep it because I don't like autoflowering plants very much and I want to get it to become competent photodependent so later I will put other seeds in the hope that they come out photodependent

Todo viene marchando bien, excelente el scrog y el sol da de lleno en todo el manto verde

Week 12 in the garden, and it's time for some serious plant pampering! The ladies got a trimming fit for royalty, and even a leafy lollipop treat – because who says plants can't enjoy a little sweetness in their lives? With the flipping of the plants just around the corner, it's like the calm before the botanical storm. I can almost hear the plants whispering among themselves, "Get ready, folks, it's about to get real in here!" As I prepare for the flip next week, I can't help but marvel at how far my green companions have come. From tiny seeds to leafy giants, it's been a journey filled with laughter, love, and a whole lot of growth. So, here's to Week 12 – a week of trimming, lollipops, and anticipation for the flip. Stay tuned for more leafy adventures as we enter the next chapter of the garden saga! 🌿🍭

Trying to get 70% RH but they are so small and don´t transpire so much, plus the indoor is quite large for this babies and I don´t have a humidifier. Just have to spray them a bit all the time to make them feel humid enough. RH is actually 60% but that´s OK, it will increase eventually when this babies grow. Today May 16 I got a little humidifier and that mantains humidity around 60% without spraying water. I still spray a little water during the day to make them feel more comfy. I also decided to switch some light bulbs off because it was too much light for this babies. Just let 3 white bulbs and the 2 full spectrum bulbs on, 60 cm above the babies. That was it for the first week of this 3 gums. Gum 3 has already a name if you noticed, I'll be thinking of the names for the other girls.

Week 11 ....

Update

Hi everyone, Weed brothers! This genetics is really a rock! Strong and resistant stems and a beautiful roof of flowers No signs of deficiencies .... I think I'm going very well .... hopefully in an excellent harvest

PS: I need to buy a dehumidifier to keep the humidity level lower. Doubts: I'm still not sure about the amount of water in the irrigation, however the technique I try to keep is 2l of water per plant every two days as it is the time it takes to dry and ask for more water.

Lit Marker is my new houseplant, and they're slowly but surely growing into a little ray of sunshine! I love watching the leaves unfurl, it's like witnessing a brand new life. I’ve heard that Lit Markers thrive with a little morning sun and some gentle misting on their leaves. I’m still learning about them, so wish me luck on this plant-tending journey!

May 27th-29th Trellis net is getting full and plants looked good, could’ve flipped to 12/12 but my smart self completely forgot about that flowering stretch so I vegged them till I saw a “good height” lmao I know but it’s my first grow leave me alone lol

No sign of flower on this z-up, but it will be time soon. She grows sooo big and is not even in flower, so what will happend when she turn in flower? It will be Monster plant of a z-up

10th week, the smaller Strawberry G was already harvested. 5 grams dry weight. Twig snap two days ago I was out smoked it. Head buzz, Strawberry taste was light and delicious. High lasted about 4 hours. I have a habit of harvesting with hardly any amber so the potency is at its peak.

Sto continuando la pratica di lst dei rami piu alti sempre verso l esterno liberando ombre . Sto notando che una gorilla cookies ha un eccesso di minerale escludo la troppa luce dato che il dimmer è a 3 di intensita 65 cm di altezza È la prima volta che uso i vasi da 20 litri per un auto fiorente Sto facendo un test prima usavo quelli da 12 Evidentemente canna terra profassional che ha 1 di ec è molto ricca e aggiungendo azoto all 15 esimo giorno la pianta è andata leggermente in over anche le altre noto una leggere curvatura nelle punte che potrebbe essere lo stesso sintomo dato che ho versato poca acqua Monitoro le pianta nei giorni successivi facendo un test di run off dato che ancora non l ho fatto aspetto che le piante bevano per poi versare e calcolare

As you can see, our macro lens arrived, we were able to take several photos and see the trichomes, we had never seen them so close before. We also noticed that many pistils have turned brown in the last days of this week but the trichomes are clear yet. The smell is getting stronger, reminds us of fresh fruits, mango and a little citrus. We are excited, she is healthy and smells good, but a little concerned with the development of buds and if they are within the standards for this week. Despite having many trichomes and the pistils turning brown, we are not noticing a significant fattening of the flowers (correct us if we are wrong). hahaha, noob stuff =)
