420 Fastbuds Week 5 Gorilla Zkittlez Auto Weekly update on these 2 have been wonderful. They both are maturing amazing not showing any real signs of issues. The transition from veg to flower went about as smooth as one could hope for. I did decide to do another defoliation taking off the bigger fan leafs. Also I lollipoped them a bit taking off the first 2-3 nodes allowing more airflow to the topsoil while letting the plant focus more energy on the upper flower sites. Keeping up the same routine as far as light cycle, watering, and preventative maintenance. Happy Growing

There’s microscopic bugs crawling on my buds! Going to post a grow question about them. No more nutrients, she’s definitely getting close, so let’s use plain water and hope for the best in the next week or two.

After ive topped her she and switch lights to 24 hours shes growing like crazy Lets hope for the best Tight her down a little just to opened up

Week 2 starting with gsc putting out begging of pistils with others shortly behind I'm sure as it is day 10 since 12/12. on day 11 flower pistis are visable on blueberry and girlscout cookies. On day 13 OG Kush has pre flowers just waiting on blueberry muffin which were planted more recently than the others.

Did a top dress of some grow powder dry nutes from botannicare. Just giving her rain water for now. Again—- temps, humidity, and clouds have been aalllllll over the place. One day it’s 86 and the next is 66 with nights in the 60s or 40s—- humidity and rain have been 100% down to 50%. All within a week.

High, The clones have rooted and will now become mother plants. First pistils appeared on FD12. Have a good time. Stay green.🌱👨‍🌾🏻💚

🌿 Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B | Week 6 (Early Flower) 🌱 Same Family, Completely Different Personality One of the greatest joys of growing multiple phenotypes side by side is discovering just how differently they can express the very same genetics. Frosted Guava Pheno B continues to surprise me every single week. Sharing the same home, the same lighting, the same nutrition, the same environmental conditions, and the very same 12/12 From Seed journey as her sister, she's writing an entirely different story. Where Pheno A reached for the sky with a broader, more open structure, Pheno B has remained wonderfully compact, building a dense framework of strong branches and closely spaced internodes that give her an incredibly sturdy appearance. Standing at 99 cm, she isn't the tallest lady in the room. But every day she convinces me a little more that height isn't everything. Sometimes the smaller plants carry the biggest surprises. 🌸 Week 6 – Flowers Are Starting to Take Control This week marks the moment where flowering truly begins taking over. The vertical stretch has slowed considerably, allowing the plant to redirect her energy into building the dozens of flowering sites spread across her canopy. Every branch now carries clusters of bright white pistils, and what were small pre-flowers only a week ago are already beginning to form recognizable bud sites. There's a quiet confidence about this phenotype. She isn't growing wildly. She's growing with purpose. Each node feels productive, each branch contributes to the canopy, and the entire plant appears focused on one objective—building flowers. 🌿 Compact Structure with Huge Potential One characteristic continues standing out above everything else. Density. Her internodal spacing remains noticeably tighter than her sister's, creating a plant that feels full without becoming overcrowded. The careful Low Stress Training carried out during vegetative growth has paid off beautifully, allowing light to reach deep into the canopy while preserving her naturally compact architecture. Strong lateral branching, thick stems and excellent airflow throughout the plant provide a solid framework for the weeks ahead. Looking at her today, it's easy to imagine each one of these flowering sites developing into chunky, well-supported colas. Sometimes compact plants end up being the ones that surprise you the most. 🌼 Early Flower Development Flower production has accelerated nicely this week. Fresh clusters of pistils continue appearing across every growing tip, while the first small stacks of calyxes are beginning to give each bud site more definition. Although it's still early in bloom, there's already a noticeable increase in flower density compared to last week. Every passing day adds a little more volume. A few more pistils. A little more structure. The transformation has clearly begun. The first hints of resin are also starting to appear on the surrounding sugar leaves, offering a small preview of what's still to come. 🍃 Plant Health Health remains exceptional. The foliage displays a deep, healthy green, with leaves maintaining excellent posture throughout the entire canopy. There are no signs of stress, deficiencies, or nutrient imbalance. The stems continue thickening to support future flower weight, while new growth remains vigorous and beautifully uniform. She has developed into one of those plants that simply looks comfortable. Comfortable in her environment. Comfortable with her feeding. Comfortable doing exactly what nature designed her to do. 💧 Nutrition & Hand Watering Unlike her sister, Pheno B continues her journey under traditional hand watering, allowing me to spend a little extra time with her during every irrigation. This week's feeding consists of: • Terra Bloom — 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • Power Buds — 1 ml/L • Green Sensation — 1 ml/L Maintaining: • EC: 1.78 mS/cm • pH: 6.0 It's been fascinating to compare both irrigation methods throughout this project. Despite one plant growing with AutoPot and the other by hand, both continue developing beautifully under the same Plagron feeding program. 🌡️ Environment Stable environmental conditions continue allowing each phenotype to express its genetics without unnecessary stress. Current conditions: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 72% • Solution temperature: 21°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂: Approximately 639 ppm Keeping these parameters consistent has allowed the subtle genetic differences between both Frosted Guava phenotypes to become the real story of this grow. 👀 Looking Ahead Over the coming week, I expect flower production to accelerate significantly. Those small clusters of pistils should begin stacking together into clearly defined buds, while resin production gradually spreads across the sugar leaves and surrounding calyxes. What excites me most isn't her height. It's her structure. Her compact frame, tight internodal spacing, and impressive number of flowering sites give me the feeling that she could become one of those plants that quietly delivers an outstanding harvest without ever being the biggest in the room. Sometimes the plants that ask for the least attention end up giving you the biggest smile at harvest. 🙏 Final Thoughts Frosted Guava Pheno B is becoming one of the most fascinating plants in this entire 8×8 Adventure. Growing beside her sister under identical conditions has been a perfect reminder that genetics are never just about a strain name—they're about expression. Same family. Same environment. Same care. Yet a completely different personality. She has chosen to stay compact, sturdy and beautifully organized, and every week she becomes a little more convincing that this unique structure could translate into something very special when harvest day finally arrives. A huge thank you to Zamnesia for trusting me with these incredible genetics, Plagron for consistently outstanding nutrition, Future ofGrow for powering the garden with exceptional lighting, TrolMaster for maintaining a stable environment, and to everyone following this journey here on GrowDiaries. Your support, comments, and encouragement continue to make this 8×8 Adventure even more rewarding. Until next week... Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💚

Went away for seven days had a friend come by and water the garden Absolutely exploded since I’ve seen them last very pleased with all of the plants except for mystery auto number one. It is disappointing me some but hopefully the top will bring more growth. Can’t wait to see these continued to develop!!!

So today is the day i switch my plants to flowering lights schedule and flowering nutes, started with 1/4 the recommended dosage and will gradually up them, only boosters i left at recommended values. Ppm is 800. Next will be 1000, then 1200 and maybe 1400. I plan to flush on days 16, 28, 35 and 42 of flowering, leave them to dry for 4-5 days so roots will oxygenize and help to stack more dense buds, and then add nutes. I plan to do the final flush for last 2 weeks with flawless finish. You can see some before and after training photos and videos from today, defoliated some leaves and LST-ing branches, spreading them out last time so light can reach smaller branches, after all she got some more stretching to do and its why i left sensi grow with more Nitrogen. I spent a lot of time training them now, hopefully it will pay out with massive buds :) Stay tuned and bye bye, as always i am opened to every grower here, i will help and share advices with everyone, i love to exchange opinions in order to come to your own conclusion, people who talked to me so far already know that..

Dane, We all should help one another. Human beings are like that. We should live by each other’s happiness - not by each other’s misery. We don’t want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone. And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. Grow High and Give the world A smile. Have A Great Day. What n°2 is lacking is n°1 compensating, (day 11, dont know what to do ph is right ppm is right themperature is ok light is ok should be recovering within 3-4 days i hope.) roots are already grown into water bucket.(should i picture them as well?) ph lv is such a pain in the ass but grow speed is worth all the trouble in hydro. (16 n°2 still not good i placed another one next to her with luck she recovers if not another one already in place to grow) (19 all hope is lost she probably doesent make it i set replacement already so waiting for her sisters to pop out and take over) (20 it is the same water in the buckets so im a little lost why one explode and the other one not,) (21 n°2 complete reset, new water, new nutrients new clay. probably died cause to shock now)

Day 36 Flower (Day 78) Today is the first day of week six of flower and on this glorious day, I went to war against the fungus gnats. By war, I mean watering each girl with 5 million Nematodes in 3 liters of pH 6.5 water. That should hopefully do the trick and get rid of the annoying little shits. I also experimented a bit more with bud photography and this time I used an LED ring flash. The next step is to shoot during the dark period so I don't get any supplemental light from the grow lights. That was pretty much it today as it is mostly just coasting along at this point in the grow. Day 37 Flower (Day 79) The left girl got pampered with a new light today. Let's see if those extra photons can help her fatten up. She also got a CO2 bag to help her to soak up all those juicy photons. The right girl on the other hand just got her daily watering. Today with 3 liters at pH 6.6. Day 38 Flower (Day 80) All I did today was to give the right girl 3 liters of pH 6.5 water and started brewing some compost tea to feed tomorrow. I used a simple recipe this time with just some worm castings and molasses to increase the microbial activity, as well as a bit of neem meal for some additional nutrition but also to help against pests. The fungus gnats in the tents are almost gone. The nematodes took care of the gnat larvae and the yellow sticky traps have been catching the adults. Day 39 Flower (Day 81) Super chill day. I just gave each girl 3 liters of compost tea at pH 6.2. Done. Day 40 Flower (Day 82) I gave 3 liters of pH 6.5 water to the right girl and supported some of her branches as they're getting heavy with buds. Boom! Day 41 Flower (Day 83) Today I gave each girl 3 liters of pH 6.5 water. The gnats look to be defeated for now. I can't see any in the tents and the yellow sticky traps are empty. Day 42 Flower (Day 84) The last day of the sixth week of flower and all is going great in the tents. The heatwave we were having went away, which kind of sucks on a personal and social level, but it's great for the girls as the tents were swelteringly hot. The left girl is 103 cm tall and didn't grow anything this week. She has started to fatten up a bit now since I installed a more powerful light, but she is still lagging far behind the right girl. I'm interested to see if she is only lagging behind in time and will fatten up eventually, or if her ordeal has stunted her flowers, resulting in a bunch of larf. Time will tell. Either way, it will be a learning experience. The right girl also didn't grow vertically this week (thankfully!). Her 123 cm is tall enough to be dangerously close to the lights. She is fattening up nicely but still some time to go before she is done. I haven't checked any trichomes yet but should probably start checking next week. Today was another chill late-flower day, I just gave the left girl 2 liters of pH 6.7 water, and the right got 3 liters at pH 6.5.

This weeks been strong switched the nutrients on em! They’ve been getting use to them and starting to stretch!! Been defoliating when I can I’m nervous to do too much! But there’s good air flow in the tent! 🔥 it’s been hot out here in the desert so I might get another bag for co2 read that will help the plants deal with the heat!
