We have day1 of Week 7 and i think in 2 Week is Harvest Day. They look all very good and perform strong. Only disapointment is that the Gorilla Fast need 8-9Weeks and not 6. but the Quality is strong. Wir haben Tag 1 von Woche 7 der Blüte. Alles läuft wie es soll schade das die Gorilla fast nicht in 6 Wochen fertig wird aber die Qualität passt und ist perfekt. In 1-2 Werden alle geerntet. Letzte Woche in der gedüngt wird und die allerletzte Woche wird mit Ph reguliertem Wasser gegossen aber wenig und 1 Tag später als normal.

Harvest day First off, I have to apologize to everyone who was following the weekly updates life got crazy, and this girl got way too big to keep moving in and out of the tent for photos. She dried under great conditions around 18–21°C with 55–60% RH, total darkness, and steady airflow for that nice slow dry. Buds… frosty, dense, and absolutely covered. The smell was sweet, citrusy, and loud! 😍 The smoke matched it perfectly smooth, flavorful. Definitely one I want to run again, and next time I’ll give her the attention she deserves from start to finish.

Servus Moin! Bei der Pineapple Slush XL sieht man auch keine deutliche Steigerung im Budwachstum. Es wird eventuell auch ihre letzte Woche.

Gorilla Jealousy F1 has been growing good. I dud hst the tops today. Along with some more lollipopping, and some light defoliation on top. I didn't want to do much more as all of this was stressful combined. She is starting to shift more into a blooming stage now. The stretching should be close to being done. Hopefully everything keeping going good.

8×8 Adventure – Week 11 Blueberry Muffin – Pheno A 💚 Sometimes The Best Thing We Can Do Is Watch Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And if you've been following this project for a while, you already know that every week doesn't necessarily bring another big intervention. Sometimes there are scissors. Sometimes there is training. Sometimes there are environmental changes. Sometimes there are surprises. And sometimes... The plants simply reach a point where they don't need us doing much at all. That's where we are this week. Blueberry Muffin Pheno A is continuing her journey exactly as we've come to expect from her. Compact. Calm. Beautiful. And completely comfortable doing things at her own pace. So this week, we're not going to manufacture work just so we can say we did something. We're going to watch. We're going to water. We're going to provide what she asks for. And we're going to let her flower. Because at this stage... That's exactly what she needs. ──────────────────────── 🌸 Week 11 – The Quiet Part Of Flowering There is something interesting about reaching this stage of a grow. Earlier in the cycle, there is always something happening. Training. Defoliation. Canopy management. Branch positioning. Establishing the plants. Adjusting the environment. Watching the plants develop. But eventually, you reach a point where the foundation has already been built. The plant has its structure. The flowering sites are established. The roots are established. The irrigation is established. The lighting is established. The nutrition is established. And now... The plant has to do the work. That's where Blueberry Muffin is right now. We're not ignoring her. Far from it. We're watching closely. But watching doesn't always mean touching. And sometimes knowing when not to intervene is just as important as knowing when to intervene. ──────────────────────── 🌿 12/12 From Seed – Why This Stage Is So Interesting One of the things that makes this particular project so interesting is that these plants have been grown under 12/12 from seed. That's very different from taking a traditionally vegetated plant and flipping it into flower after building a large vegetative structure. With 12/12 from seed, we're allowing the plant to develop and flower under the same photoperiod from the beginning. That means the architecture we see now is the result of the plant expressing itself under those conditions rather than being built through a long conventional vegetative period before the flip. And that's one of the reasons I love documenting these plants individually. We're not simply asking: "What does this strain look like?" We're asking: "What does this particular phenotype decide to become under this particular growing philosophy?" And Blueberry Muffin has answered that question pretty clearly. She likes being compact. She likes taking her time. And she seems perfectly happy building flowers without trying to take over the room. 😂💚 ──────────────────────── 🌱 Why We're Not Doing Much Right Now At this stage of flowering, I don't see a reason to keep manipulating the plant simply because I have scissors available. 😂 The structure is already established. The canopy is already where we want it. The flowers are developing. The foliage is supporting the plant. And there isn't anything obvious asking for intervention. So what do we do? We provide what she needs. Water. Nutrition. Light. Airflow. A stable environment. And time. That's it. It sounds simple. And honestly... It is. But simple doesn't mean careless. Quite the opposite. This is the point where observation becomes extremely important. We're watching the flowers. We're watching the foliage. We're watching the plant's overall posture. We're watching how quickly she is consuming water. We're watching environmental conditions. And if she tells us something needs attention... We'll respond. Until then? Let her be. ──────────────────────── 💚 The Plant Gets The Final Vote This has always been one of the principles behind the 8×8 Adventure. The numbers are useful. The equipment is useful. The experience is useful. But ultimately... The plant gets the final vote. We can measure everything. We can record temperatures. We can record pH. We can record EC. We can measure light. We can track irrigation. But then you look at the plant. And sometimes she tells you more in five seconds than a spreadsheet can tell you in five hours. Blueberry Muffin looks comfortable. She's developing. She's flowering. She's maintaining healthy foliage. And she isn't asking for anything dramatic. So I'm listening. ──────────────────────── 💡 A Major Lighting Upgrade – Two More Black Series 600W Fixtures Now... Although we're not doing much to the plants themselves... We did make a pretty significant change to the lighting environment this week. Future of Grow provided us with two additional Black Series 600W fixtures for us to test and see how the plants respond. And when we added them... Well... The plants suddenly had access to a lot more light. 😂💡 The PPFD increased more than I wanted initially. So rather than simply running the fixtures at maximum power because we had the available wattage, we adjusted the output. We brought the fixtures down in power to find a level that made more sense for the room and the plants. We're currently running at approximately 59% power from the plug. At this setting, we're seeing an average of approximately 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy, with the actual intensity naturally becoming lower depending on plant height and position. And honestly? I'm very happy with that. ──────────────────────── 🔌 More Power Doesn't Automatically Mean Better This is something I think is worth emphasizing. Just because you have more lighting available doesn't mean you have to run everything at maximum output. We added two more powerful fixtures. The PPFD went higher than I wanted. So we turned them down. Simple. 😂 There is no prize for running the LEDs at 100%. The objective is to create an environment where the plants can actually make good use of the light being provided. And by lowering the output, we're also reducing unnecessary electrical consumption. That's a win in several directions. Less electricity. Less unnecessary stress on the fixtures. Less unnecessary heat from running equipment harder than necessary. And we're still providing a very strong light environment. So sometimes... Turning the dial down is actually the smart move. ──────────────────────── 💡 1,500 PPFD At The Top – Then Naturally Less Below The approximately 1,500 PPFD average across the top canopy is just that: An upper-canopy measurement. Not every flower on the plant receives the same intensity. Plant height changes things. Canopy position changes things. Leaf angle changes things. Distance from the fixtures changes things. And that's perfectly normal. This is also where the layered lighting philosophy of the 8×8 Adventure becomes interesting. We're not trying to make every single part of the plant receive exactly the same amount of light. We're trying to create a useful overall light environment. And with these additional Future of Grow fixtures now in place, we have considerably more lighting capability available to us. We can control it. We can adjust it. And we can find the level that makes sense. That's much more useful than simply having more watts for the sake of having more watts. ──────────────────────── 🙏 A Huge Shout-Out To Future Of Grow I want to give Future of Grow a particularly big thank you this week. Providing these two additional Black Series 600W fixtures gives us the opportunity to test something that I find extremely interesting: What happens when we substantially increase the available lighting power... and then control it to find the level we actually want? That's a much more interesting experiment than simply turning everything to maximum and calling it a day. We're going to watch. We're going to compare. We're going to see how the plants respond. And we're going to document the results. That's exactly what I enjoy about this project. We're not just growing. We're experimenting. We're observing. And we're learning. ──────────────────────── 🌸 Blueberry Muffin Under The New Light And Blueberry Muffin? She's taking it beautifully. Her compact architecture makes her particularly interesting to watch under this new lighting environment. The flowers are continuing to develop. The foliage remains healthy. And the plant isn't giving me any reason to start changing things simply for the sake of changing them. So we're going to leave her alone. The lights are doing their job. The roots are doing their job. The plant is doing her job. My job is simply to make sure everything around her continues functioning properly. And honestly... I really enjoy that part. ──────────────────────── 💚 The Quiet Personality Of Pheno A If you've been following this diary from the beginning, you'll know that Blueberry Muffin Pheno A has never been the loudest personality in the room. She didn't try to become the tallest. She didn't demand constant training. She didn't explode vertically. She simply established her own rhythm. And that rhythm continues. She's compact. She's controlled. She's quietly productive. And now she's entering the later part of flowering with a beautiful collection of developing flowers. There is something really satisfying about that. She hasn't needed to be pushed. She hasn't needed to be forced. She's simply been allowed to become what she wanted to become. And I think that's one of the most interesting things about phenotype hunting. Sometimes the plant tells you exactly who she is. You just have to pay attention. ──────────────────────── 🌿 What We've Done To Get Here It's also worth remembering that this quiet week didn't happen by accident. There was a lot of work before we reached this point. We established the plants. We developed the structure. We trained where necessary. We managed the canopy. We maintained the environment. We established the irrigation. We built the nutritional program. We adjusted lighting. We observed the plant. And eventually... All that preparation brings you to a stage where the plant doesn't need constant intervention anymore. That's the payoff. The work doesn't disappear. It simply changes. Earlier: "What do I need to do?" Now: "What is she telling me?" And those are very different questions. ──────────────────────── 💧 Nutrition & Irrigation – A Small Step Forward The flowering nutrition has been increased slightly this week. We're not making a dramatic change. We're simply moving Terra Bloom from 2.2 ml/L to 2.3 ml/L. The current recipe is: • Terra Bloom — 2.3 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Power Buds — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L • Lemon Kick — 0.03 ml/L That small increase in Terra Bloom has brought the EC up slightly as well. We're now sitting around 2.14 mS/cm. Nothing dramatic. Just a small, measured increase as the plants continue progressing through flowering. I like these kinds of adjustments. We're not suddenly changing the entire program. We're simply giving the plants a little more support and watching how they respond. Irrigation is currently around: 1.45 L per plant / 24 hours. And as always... The plant gets the final vote. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Week 11 – Current Conditions This week's recorded conditions are: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 26.5°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 26°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 61% • 🥥 Substrate Temperature: 25°C • 💦 Nutrient Solution Temperature: 25°C • ⚗️ pH: 6.02 • ⚡ EC: 2.14 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 693 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 12/12 • 💧 Irrigation: approximately 1.45 L/plant/24h • ? Pot Size: 15 L • 📏 Plant Height: approximately 75 cm The environment remains stable, and Blueberry Muffin continues responding beautifully. Summer is still capable of giving us small fluctuations, of course, but we're keeping the important variables controlled and avoiding unnecessary swings. At this stage, stability is more valuable than constantly chasing perfection. ──────────────────────── 🔬 This Is Where Observation Becomes Everything At this stage, the diary becomes less about describing something dramatic that happened and more about documenting subtle changes. Are the flowers gaining size? Are the pistils progressing? Is the foliage maintaining its colour? Is the plant drinking differently? Is the structure changing? Is resin development becoming more obvious? Those little observations become increasingly important as flowering progresses. And that's why I still love taking the photographs every week. Because sometimes the change isn't obvious when you're standing in front of the plant every day. Then you put two photographs next to each other... And suddenly: There it is. She's changed. She's matured. She's moved forward. That's the beauty of documentation. ──────────────────────── 🔮 Looking Ahead – What Happens Now? From here, I don't expect dramatic changes. And that's actually a good thing. The coming weeks are about maturity. The plant will continue developing the flowers she has already established. We'll watch them gain size and density. We'll watch the pistils change. We'll watch the resin develop. We'll continue monitoring the foliage. And we'll keep providing whatever she asks for. The new Future of Grow lighting gives us another variable to observe as well. We've increased our lighting capability substantially, then brought the output down to a level we're comfortable with. Now we'll watch what the plants do with that available light. And Blueberry Muffin? She gets to continue being Blueberry Muffin. Quiet. Compact. Patient. And increasingly floral. 💚🌸 ──────────────────────── 💚 Final Thoughts – Let The Girl Finish There is something I really enjoy about this stage of a grow. You reach a point where you realize: We've done enough. Not because we're finished. But because the plant has reached the point where more intervention isn't necessarily better. She's got her structure. She's got her roots. She's got her flowers. She's got her light. She's got her nutrition. She's got her water. She's got her environment. Now... She needs time. And I think that's especially true with a 12/12-from-seed plant like Blueberry Muffin. We've watched her develop under this philosophy from the beginning. We haven't tried to turn her into something she's not. We've allowed her compact personality to remain. And now we're getting to see what that personality produces when given enough time to finish. So no... There isn't a huge training story this week. There isn't a dramatic intervention. There isn't a crisis. And honestly? I'm perfectly happy about that. 😂💚 Sometimes the best update is: She's happy. She's flowering. She's developing beautifully. And we're letting her do it. That's Blueberry Muffin Pheno A. Quietly getting the job done. ──────────────────────── 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for giving us the opportunity to explore these Blueberry Muffin genetics and follow this beautiful phenotype throughout her journey. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting this flowering cycle and helping us keep the plants moving forward consistently. A massive thank you to Future of Grow for not only providing the Black Series lighting we've already been using, but now also for providing two additional Black Series 600W fixtures for us to test in the 8×8 Adventure. Having the opportunity to increase the available lighting power and then dial it back to find the level that makes sense for the plants is exactly the kind of real-world testing I enjoy documenting. And a special thank you to Lumiflora for the additional lighting support deeper within the canopy. Thank you as well to everyone following this crazy 8×8 Adventure on GrowDiaries. Every plant continues writing her own story. Some are loud. Some are fast. Some demand attention. And some... like Blueberry Muffin... simply keep their heads down and quietly get the job done. This week, there's not much more I want to do to her. And that's okay. Sometimes cultivation is about knowing when to intervene. And sometimes... it's about knowing when to step back. Blueberry Muffin is flowering. She's healthy. She's developing. She's getting the photons. She's getting a little more nutrition. And now we're going to give her the one thing no grower can manufacture: time. 💚🌸 Until next week... Keep doing your thing, beautiful girl. I'll be watching. Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💚

Bonjour les amis. La résine se développe et les fleurs gonflent. Plusieurs grandes feuilles ont jauni et sont déjà flétries. Les nuits sont très fraîches et humides. Je sors quotidiennement la plante de la serre dès qu'il fait beau. L'odeur est assez faible et très douce. M.

Here we go 😊 Planning & germination 👍 I´m really looking forward to this run, the SpectrumX from Medicgrow with build in PPFD, 4 spectrums V1, F1, VS, FS and 880 Watt is definitely serious business 👊 Trying out a new soil in this grow. The plant mulch is an exclusive mixture of harped mulch, nutrient-rich natural fertiliser, hill sand and long-term matured compost. The mixture provides a porous and airy structure, which ensures that both water and nutrients are easily accessible to the plant's roots. Stay tuned and Keep it green 😎

Week 10 Flower week 4 Flower-day 1 05/11/2025 Nutrients change Floramax veg1 Floramax Organabud Floramax flowering enhancer Floramax Rezin Cyco platinum series silica Green planet bud booster Complete grow cal mag ( sensi unfortunately got refunded so got this instead today ) Sleeps with the fishez ( hocI ) Ladies are looking good overall, let the fun goodness begin i guess 😂 7/11/25 Blockage within systems finally fixed after 4 flushes. Not exactly sure what it was but whatever ive done has fixed it for now 🤷‍♂️😂 take it as a win for now i guess 11/11/25 Unfortunately I hate scrogg so took it off but once I had spread her out again with lst, I noticed that shes struggling with lower growth. I saw this with my autoflowers. I'm not too sure if its from too many budspots,colas or if it's just from being overpacked. So her pisitils showed up on the 25th, some people count from that date as flower and some count as soon as you flip, I've decided to go of the 25th as first pisitils so its only 3 n a half weeks currently. I decided to take a few branches and a few of the lower budspots to try and help her even herself on where shes taking her sugars and growth. No Defoilation, just 10 or so budspots n only 3 branches. I DONT NOT RECOMMEND doing any of this, I'm only reattempting this because it worked on autos I had going. I do think I've made the right choice Grape og is meant to be a pretty hearty and forgiving strain, so she should bounce back pretty quickly Oh well. I'll definitely be rerunning her again later in future but trying a different method

Finished Week 3 of Flower and watching it like a hawk for any hint of PM. Did have to spray occasionally on a few leaves, but total spots found were less than 10 for all three plants. I perform DAILY inspections, LEAF BY LEAF, ensuring I do not suffer the same fate I encountered on my first grow. Did some light LST'ng, but more really like pulling down slightly, any very tall stems. Removed remaining fan leaves that aren't on a node with an active bud site, mostly all bottom level leaves. All in all, some great bud growth. I can say The Bling is a very lanky and upright plant. I still have all the LST wires attached as there is still tension for it to grow straight up! Mimosa has the most bud sites and even growth. Napali Pink is also growing well. Has been unaffected by PM from early on through today. If you are looking for a hearty, PM-resistant plant, Napali Pink is it.

She looks very healthy and buds are forming well. However, I'm a bit skeptical as to whether a 7-week flowering period will be enough. Over the week I increased the light power to 100%. I added 10mL LAB (lacto acid bacteria, diy with rice water and milk) and 1 mL CalMg per liter of irrigation water. Light Power: 100% Day 79 Flower #28 Photoshooting

Day 22 - The baby is growing substantially and looks beautiful! Day 23 - The plant is adjusting nicely to the LST im going to do some more tomorrow. Day 24 - This beauty was watered with nutrients and i tried to control PH which was to no avail. I tightened the LST im aiming for a spiral so let's hope it works. Also we done some seriouse decore change today so the whole place looks like a bud box we got the other plants from my diaries featuring in a the video. Day 25 - Slowly but surely the growth is steady. Its accepting the LST very well tighten her up again today. Day 26 -Was to busy running around didnt take a pic its a shame but its okay. Day 27 - The baby looks beautiful she is growing well. I watered her today with nutrients. I raised the light but i also raised the plant as well so its sitting at around 30cm - 45cm. Day 28 - We have had some issues, the leaf tip has some brown spots and discoloration got me a lil worried. Raised the lights level a little higher so there isn't anymore problems. We are gonna keep an eye on it.This is most likely caused by me putting crazy acidic water with nutrients in the other day i was trying to equal out the soil and clearly that aint how you do it! So i gave the plant around 750ml of PH 5 controlled water to offset the calcium issue.

Just hit day 10 of flower.this net has about 20% touching the 2nd trellis. And about 70% almost touching. One plant has a very big node spacing. Over all plants are healthy and have been given a second scarecrow method trim.

This lady tends to stay small, but the she has quite a explosive veg time. She will not grow tall but she will produce many side branches that will continue side branches. There for the plants can be very leafy, and will produce unnecessary shadow that will block the canopy. Due to blocking of the canopy after the 5 first CM high chance useless pop corn bud will develop. So with this strain it is very important to train her wel and make sure the light can penetrate the lower branches aswel, if you want to have enjoyable sweet dense buds all of the plant and branches. Have a good grow!

First off I just want to say for some reason it’s not letting me change the right temperatures on my diaries ! Each time when I put it in they stay at 50. My day air stays 75 degrees an , night degrees is 70 ! Today is day 58 for all these ladies! This week has been really great ! Girls really progressed a lot , especially for one the Forbiddin Runtz, looks like is gonna finish up in a week or 2 ! Other then that they are coming along well! Keep those eyes peeled for next week! Cheers😶‍🌫️💨💨💨💨
