💎 Black Diamond Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 8 | She's Everywhere Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! And this week, I have to admit something... I have absolutely no idea where this girl is going. And I love it. 😂💚 Black Diamond Pheno A has officially reached the point where I stop trying to predict what she's going to become and simply enjoy watching her do it. Every week I think I've figured out her structure. Then she does something else. This week? She's building main-cola-sized flowers everywhere. Not just one dominant central cola. Not a huge top surrounded by little side flowers. I'm talking about substantial flowering structures developing all the way down the plant, with some of the lower flowers already starting to resemble little baseballs. And the craziest part? There is almost no popcorn. She's simply turning branch after branch into proper flowering sites. This Black Diamond is something special. 🌱 The 12/12 From Seed Adventure For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure. Every plant in this project is being grown under a 12 hours on / 12 hours off light schedule from seed. There is no traditional vegetative period. No extended growth phase. No special treatment for individual phenotypes. Every plant receives the same environment, the same lighting strategy, the same feeding philosophy and the same general care. The genetics are the variable. And that's exactly what makes this experiment so fascinating. When twelve plants are given essentially the same conditions and one of them decides to become a completely different creature... that's the phenotype talking. And Black Diamond Pheno A certainly has something to say. 💎 She's Building Colas Everywhere Last week I described this plant as tall, elegant and balanced. This week? I'm starting to think "balanced" isn't quite enough anymore. At 169 cm, she has developed an incredible vertical structure with flowering sites distributed throughout the plant. But what really catches my attention is the consistency of flower development. Normally, when looking at a plant this size, you expect the hierarchy to be obvious: One main cola. A few strong secondary branches. Then progressively smaller flowers as you move down the plant. Black Diamond Pheno A seems to have decided that hierarchy is optional. Her central cola is still the largest and most obvious flower. Of course it is. But the secondary branches are not behaving like secondary flowers anymore. They're becoming colas in their own right. And even further down the plant, I'm seeing flowers developing with enough volume that calling them "lower buds" almost feels unfair. They're becoming little towers. Some are already approaching baseball-sized proportions. And there is remarkably little popcorn hiding underneath. That is what has me so excited. 🍃 Still Untouched Perhaps the most interesting part of this whole story is what hasn't happened. I haven't topped her. I haven't HST'd her. I haven't performed aggressive defoliation. I haven't stripped the interior. I haven't tried to force her into a particular shape. The only intervention has been the occasional leaf tuck when a large fan leaf was blocking a developing flower. That's it. And now I'm looking at this plant thinking... Maybe she never needed me to shape her in the first place. 😂 This is one of those grows that reminds you that sometimes genetics already have a plan. Our job isn't always to create the structure. Sometimes it's simply to provide the environment and get out of the way. ☀️ She's Eating Every Photon She Can Find And this girl certainly isn't wasting the light. Top canopy? She's using it. Inner canopy? She's using it. Lower canopy? Apparently she wants that too. And now that the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting has joined the party, I'm extremely curious to see how far this phenotype can push flower development throughout the entire vertical structure. The whole idea behind the under-canopy lighting was to give those normally shaded areas access to additional usable light. And Black Diamond Pheno A seems to have plenty of flowering real estate available to take advantage of it. She's capturing photons from above. She's capturing photons from between the branches. She's capturing photons from underneath. At this point I'm almost convinced she's going around the room looking for the last photon that hasn't been claimed yet. 😂💚 💡 Lumiflora Under-Canopy Lighting This is now becoming a particularly interesting part of the experiment. The top of the plant is obviously receiving plenty of light from the main fixtures. But look at the structure of this girl. There are flowers developing everywhere. That makes light distribution throughout the canopy increasingly important. The under-canopy lighting isn't intended to replace the primary fixtures. It's simply another layer of light reaching areas that would naturally receive less. And this is exactly the kind of plant where I want to observe the result. Will the lower flowers continue developing with impressive density? Will the middle of the plant continue filling out? Will the overall flower distribution become more uniform? We're going to find out. I'm not expecting miracles. I'm expecting observation. And that's one of the reasons this project is so much fun. 🌸 Flower Development Is Getting Serious The difference from last week is becoming very obvious. The flowers are no longer simply forming. They're building structure. Calyxes are stacking. Pistils are filling the flowers. Sugar leaves are becoming increasingly covered in visible resin. And the individual flowers are beginning to gain the shape and volume that tells you the real bulking phase is approaching. The central cola is beautiful. But honestly? I'm almost more interested in everything around it. Because when you look down the branches, you keep finding another flower. And another. And another. There is no obvious point where the plant suddenly says: "Okay, that's enough. Everything below this is popcorn." Instead, she just keeps producing. Cola after cola after cola. ❄️ The Frost Is Coming Along for the Ride Another thing becoming increasingly obvious in this week's photographs is the resin coverage. The sugar leaves are carrying a beautiful layer of visible trichomes, and the flowers themselves are becoming increasingly frosty. The close-up photographs really show it. We're still not at the final destination. There's plenty of flower maturation and swelling ahead. But Black Diamond is already giving us a preview of what she's capable of. And I have a feeling that once the flowers really start packing on weight, the visual difference could become spectacular. 💧 Feeding This Week The feeding program continues to support the increasingly demanding flowering phase. This week's recorded recipe: Plagron Terra Bloom — 2.2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L Plagron Green Sensation — 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L Plagron pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L Plagron Lemon Kick — 0.03 ml/L The nutrient solution is being maintained around pH 6.0, with the recorded EC/TDS reading at approximately 2.0 mS/cm. Watering volume is currently around 1.3 L per plant per 24 hours. And the plant is responding beautifully. No obvious signs of nutritional stress. No dramatic deficiencies. No major environmental complaints. Just growth. Flower production. And more flower production. 🌡️ Environmental Conditions The environment remains stable and consistent, which is exactly what I want during this stage. Current conditions: 🌸 Flowering: Week 8 📏 Height: 169 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 🌱 Substrate temperature: 21°C 💧 Nutrient solution temperature: 21°C 🌬️ CO₂: 639 ppm 💦 Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h The goal remains simple: Keep the environment stable and let the plant perform. 📸 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs might be some of my favourites of this phenotype so far. The full-plant images show just how impressive her structure has become. The close-ups tell an even better story. Everywhere you look there is another flowering site. The central cola is developing beautifully, but then you move your eyes down the plant and suddenly discover another substantial flower. And another. And another. Some of those lower flowers are already surprisingly large. The sugar leaves are carrying a beautiful layer of frost. The pistils are still predominantly fresh and white, telling us that there is plenty of development still ahead. And the most remarkable thing? This plant still hasn't been defoliated. She's lush. She's green. She's full. She's flowering everywhere. And somehow she's making it work. 🔮 Looking Ahead This is officially the part of the grow where I'm going to stop making predictions. 😂 Because every time I think I know what Black Diamond Pheno A is going to do... She proves me wrong. What I can say is that the next weeks should be fascinating. The flowers should continue swelling. The calyxes should become more pronounced. Resin production should increase. And those numerous secondary flowering structures have the potential to become some seriously impressive flowers. I'm particularly interested in watching those lower and inner flowers. Because if they continue developing at anything close to the rate we're seeing now... this plant could become an absolute monster from top to bottom. And that's without me forcing her to do it. 💎 Let Her Shine This phenotype has taught me something throughout this run. Sometimes you don't need to push a plant. You don't need to manipulate every branch. You don't need to remove every leaf. You don't need to create the structure yourself. Sometimes... you just need to give the genetics the opportunity to show you what they can do. Black Diamond Pheno A has been given that opportunity. And she's taking it. She's capturing light from the top. She's using the inner canopy. She's reaching into the lower canopy. She's taking advantage of the under-canopy lighting. She's building flowers everywhere. She's filling spaces where I expected to find popcorn. And she's doing all of this while simply being allowed to grow. At this point, I'm not trying to tell her what she should become. I'm just watching. I'm learning. And I'm enjoying the show. Because honestly... I have no idea where this girl is going. But wherever she's going... I absolutely love the direction. 💎🌱 💚 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure. Thank you to GrowDiaries for providing a place where growers can document, compare, learn and inspire one another. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Black Diamond genetics that gave us this fascinating phenotype to follow. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting the plants throughout the run. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for providing the main lighting driving this project. Thank you to Lumiflora for joining the adventure and giving us the opportunity to explore what additional under-canopy lighting can contribute to a plant with this kind of structure. And thank you to TrolMaster for helping maintain the stable environment behind the scenes. And finally, thank you to everyone reading, commenting, asking questions and following these plants week after week. Every phenotype in the 8×8 Adventure has its own personality. But Black Diamond Pheno A? She's becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. She's not making one main cola. She's making a whole collection of them. And I can't wait to see what happens next. Growers Love. 💚🌱💎

Otra semana mas, y sigo enamorandome cada día, las Blue Elite no paran de sacar resina blanca, y las Rica CBD estan hermosisimas, con grandes y gruesos cogollos, empiezo a notar las macetas de 3L y que la lámpara está ya para el retiro😬, aun así estan saliendo unas piedras con forma de cogollos muy interesantes😂

Flush ended two days before the darkness period. Decided on a 48 darkness periods though some prefer 24 or 72. The darkness did help trichomes reappear at the tops of the canopy. Going for a longer dry of 10 days, best temperatures are 60-70F to preserve the terps with 50-60RH. This has been an amazing experience, definitely putting in more passion into the next run.

Did a top watering this week with some nutes added. Then back to plain RO water in the SIP. Seeing some light burn so lowered the PAR from avg 650 to 550. Tried a Co2 canister but without a proper lung room for this 10 x 5, it was pretty useless. Really getting into this hobby, love the abundance of free knowledge and different techniques available. Starting to resent those who I see bragging about "trade secrets". I've been spending more time in hash making discords, hash making twitch streams, and grower instagrams. It never ceases to amaze me what we can learn for free with some motivation and the internet. *I am growing 4 plants here, but only tracking one.

First Week of flowering Week without too much hassle. A small excess of fertilizer but nothing serious. Uniform color. High water consumption (10L every 2 days), you can feel that they are in good shape. Semaine sans trop d'encombre. Un petit excès de fertilisant mais rien de grave. Couleur uniforme. Grosse consommation en eau (10L tous les 2 jours), on sent qu'elles sont en forme. Una semana sin demasiados problemas. Un poco de exceso de fertilizante pero nada serio. Color uniforme. El alto consumo de agua (10L cada 2 días), se puede sentir que están en buena forma.

12-29 Taproot on all 5 seeds, so far 4 have popped up above coco. I probably overwatered them. 12-31 all 5 seeds germinated and are growing healthy. I haven't been watering any extra just spraying the seedling dome to keep humidity high. Currently at 81 degrees 80 humidity during the day and 70 at night.

Week 17 Nothing really moved this week. It’s something like between low tide and high tide: not my favorite moment … waiting for blossoms and flowers 🙄🙏. Good point is that every plants are healthy ( except a parasite problem on Psicodelicia) and well prepared for flowering. For now it’s bad weather outside: 20 degrees max, with lot of wind and rain (cf video). The green house is the best option despite of less exposure. Morning soon I moved the plants outside to sprayed them with potassium soap (natural insecticide). I cleaned the grow space inside the greenhouse (didn’t touch spiderwebs…good insecticide too). I removed the automatic watering and get a few liters of rain water during this days. Watering 1L every 3 days -Calmag + Cannazym + Alga mic + Root booster -Flora Series: preflowering quantities. Daylight 14h30: 6h50/21h20 Sleepy Joe is still the queen of this summer session, using a large place with the long side branches. Zero problems but I did some preventative treatment against predators.

November 4th: First day of 12/12. Clones from this GDP mother. Decided to do a laid back run so some friends and clients can decide if they want cuts. I'm not shooting for a big yield, just enough to smoke with people and have my brother press some into live rosin. They are under a Hortibloom Solux 800. It's been water only, so far. The clones are almost 2 months old, including the two week rooting time I give every clone to establish. No control over heat and humidity, at the moment. My brother said he has a dehumidifier I can use, so that will help. I need to dig out my little electric heater, but can't manage to find it. I'm thinking I gave it away a while ago. Time to get another one, I guess. I'll do an update at the end of this week. This is just to show where the clones are at this point in time so I can gauge progress and have it recorded. November 11th: The clones are filling out and looking great. It's officially the end of week 1 flower and everything is rolling right along. Just water throughout the week. Turned the light up 20%, so it's sitting at 60% intensity from now until nugs start stacking. I'm not sure if I'll be able to turn this light past 80% at all, to be honest. Especially if I'm not supplementing c02. Got a heating source established and finally hooked a hose up to a water main. Now I don't have to lug around 5 gallon buckets full of water and it's amazing.

Light burn/nute surplus damaged a lot of my fan leaves but the actual buds are looking fairly nice. I just got a mini microscope to check trichomes and I’m flushing for these next couple weeks. Big shout out to everyone who helped on my grow questions! I learned a lot from them and I’m even more excited for my next grow now.

Mephisto freebie cross is not always labeled in pictures but the alaska should be hope you can tell the difference like me! So I got rid of the tents and got another light video should show it maybe a picture

There was a trouble, in the room where they cultivated they turned off the light, I had to transfer it to the street, since everything is in bloom, during the day the temperature is 20 degrees, at night 10, but they bloom and grow well, now I make a greenhouse and tighten the film

Soaked 7.27 for 36ishhrs, into paper towel for 12 hrs then into a solo cup with greentree garden supply pro ultra (coco/perlite). No plan on veg time I dont know when I'll have an open tent for flower but it could be a very quick veg kinda pheno hunt deal. First feed was a diluted leftover feed from my auto youngins. Basically about 1 ml/g of grow, 7ml/g humid acid, 1ml/g more roots, 1ml/g orca, cannazyme, hydroguard and a sprinkle of living organics in the nutes and on the top of the coco. Usually the ppm will be higher than I want it so I just dilute with r/o water until I'm down to 200-250. It makes it so I cant be accurate on ratios so that's why I'm tellin ya, but it's how I always do it no matter what nutes I use.

Ladies doing fine. Worm castings are magic. SD2 is getting greener. I topdressed all the plants with worm castings

Girls are looking great so far! I added about 2ml/g to the reservoir and the plants responded well. Got a good explosion of growth over the last few days. I was able to start LST training the largest of the 4 today and the other 3 will be a day or 2 until they will be ready to start LST. Had some Ph issues during week 4 because my pen decided to go wonky. I tried to calibrate it again and had a hard time. So I busted out an older one and decided to calibrate it and see if it worked still... calibrated in a few min and sure enough res ph was well bellow 5. So water was changed as it was time anyway and ph’d proper just before lights out so we will see what happens tomorrow.
