🗓️ Week 17: 3/23 - 3/29 📆 Week 7 of 12/12 🌄 The plant is starting to go into senescence and presenting some beautiful colors as she begins to fade. 💡 Received new lighting courtesy of Growers Choice. They sent me the ROI-E420 with the Master Controller. First impression is amazing. Looks and feels like very high quality build. The spectrum seems more blue than the 3000k lm301H Kingbrite bars I have been using. The bars are thinner and packed with a lot of diodes, so they do run a little hotter than the KB at full power. I adjusted and now running them at 90%. For now the Kingbrite bars are being used as side lighting dimmed to about 30-35% depending on Grow room temps.

Opium grows and grows and just didn’t stop 😂 144cm now lol He should stop with that and bring the energy into the buds

They are growing very well . I trues top and lst on one og the plants. Just triumf to get a frem for it. Proberbly dosent make sens when the rest is not lst or topped. But had to try

Hey everyone 😃. This week she has done great 👍. It was done again on all the drifted topping and sprayed one last time with neem oil so that the last trips are finally gone 😁. We haven't had any pests for so many years and all of a sudden we have such little shit parts 😅. This week it was poured twice with 1.2 l of water. GHSC enhancer was added during a pouring (1 g per l) The tent was cleaned every day this week and the plants were checked for health. The humidifier is filled once a day. Next week I will decide how I will continue the training because I have space again in the flower tent 😀. Until then, I wish you and your families a good start into the new year 2021 🙏🏻. Stay healthy and let it grow 🍀 You can buy this Strain at : www.Zamnesia.com Type: Purple Punch ☝️🏼 Genetics: Granddaddy Purple x Larry OG 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green House Powder Feeding ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC. Add Cal / Mag to 0.4 Ec Ph with Organic Ph - to 5.5 - 5.8 .

So this is actually week 9, going into week 10 now. Just a photo dump. I’m officially just watering at a ph of about 6.5/6.8 now. I went ahead and stripped larger leafs of to encourage last minute fattening of the buds hopefully. The smell isn’t really too bad but I am rather proud of how my first grow went. I did what some people recommended and grew in 1 gallon pots but I don’t recommend it to others. They’re for sure stunted and I feel they could’ve really benefitted from larger pots. But I’m still super happy with them!!! They’ve been a really easy plant and healthy as well.

SuperSativaSeedClub PurplePunchOGAuto Week12 Sorry for the late update on these two lovely ladies. They're going through flower absolutely amazing starting to get super sticky and smelling delicious. I'll check the tricolms this coming week to see how looking and get an idea of hoe much longer they'll go. All in all Happy Growing

Quinta Semana de floración del scrog de una variedad indica con un olor muy intenso con flores muy resinosas y compactas / Fifth Week of flowering of the scrog of a variety indicates with a very intense smell with very resinous and compact flowers

🌸 Pink Rosay Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 12 💗 The Compact Princess Is Getting LOUD 👑🍇🌿 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 Okay... I have to admit something. I'm still completely in love with this girl. 😂💗 I know. I know. I've said it before. I've said it last week. And I'm probably going to say it again next week. But... what can I do? She's still my favourite plant in the room. There. I said it again. 😂💗👑 And the funny thing is... she isn't even the biggest. She's not the smallest either. She's not some tiny little plant hiding in the corner. She's simply... herself. She's compact without being tiny. She's substantial without being enormous. She's got presence without taking over the room. And somehow... this beautiful little princess is becoming LOUD. And when I say loud... I mean... LOUD. 😂😂😂 I walk into the room... and I can smell her. I get closer... and it gets stronger. Closer again... and suddenly I'm wondering: "How the hell is THAT much aroma coming out of THIS plant?" 😂🍇💗 And the smell? This is where I'm struggling to describe it. It's fruity. It's sweet. There's something grape-like. Something that reminds me of walking through a vineyard... but not the vineyard during harvest. No. It's more like... walking through a vineyard surrounded by mature, ripe grapes. 🍇🍇🍇 That's the closest I can get. And honestly? It's beautiful. So... our compact princess is still my favourite. She's still beautiful. She's still doing her thing. And now... she's becoming one of the loudest girls in the room. Let's give her the spotlight. 💗👑🌸 ──────────────────────── 👑 THE COMPACT PRINCESS ──────────────────────── I've officially stopped trying to find a better name for her. She's the Compact Princess. 😂💗👑 Because that's exactly what she feels like. She's not huge. She's not tiny. She's not trying to become the biggest plant in the room. She's simply sitting there... looking beautiful... building flowers... and apparently producing enough aroma to announce her presence to the entire tent. 😂 And I absolutely love that combination. There's something very satisfying about a plant that doesn't need enormous physical size to make itself noticed. She doesn't have to reach the ceiling. She doesn't have to fill every available centimetre. She doesn't have to push everybody else out of the way. She simply exists... and you notice her. Especially with your nose. 😂🍇 ──────────────────────── 💗 STILL MY FAVOURITE ──────────────────────── I'm going to be completely honest. Out of all the girls in this room... she's still my favourite. And that's not because she's necessarily the most impressive plant from a purely visual or structural point of view. There are bigger plants. There are more dramatic plants. There are girls with enormous structures. There are girls that absolutely dominate their corners. There are girls that make you stop and say: "Jesus Christ..." 😂🌿 But Pink Rosay? She makes me smile. That's different. There's something about her proportions. Her personality. Her flowers. Her compact nature. Her ease. Her smell. Her overall appearance. Everything together just works for me. She's one of those plants where I walk into the room... find her... and immediately think: "Yep. That's my girl." 😂💗👑 And honestly? I wouldn't change her. ──────────────────────── 🍇 WHAT THE HELL IS THAT SMELL? ──────────────────────── Now let's talk about the elephant in the room. Or perhaps... the grape vineyard in the room. 😂🍇 Because this girl is LOUD. Really loud. The aroma is becoming impossible to ignore. And I'm having a hard time putting my finger on exactly what I'm smelling. It's fruity. It's sweet. There's something almost grape-like. There's a richness to it. A mature sweetness. And the weirdest part is that my brain keeps giving me the same image: A vineyard. 🍇🌿 Not freshly picked grapes. Not grape candy. Not artificial grape flavour. More like... mature grapes hanging on the vine. That sweet, fruity, almost heavy aroma you get when you walk through a vineyard when the fruit is fully developed. That's what she keeps reminding me of. And I absolutely love it. 😂💗🍇 Maybe next week I'll finally figure out exactly what she's trying to tell me. Or maybe she simply smells like Pink Rosay. And that's the answer. ──────────────────────── 🌸 SMALLER FRAME — BIGGER PERSONALITY ──────────────────────── This is one of the things I find so fascinating about her. You look at the plant... and she's not enormous. She's not one of the giants. But then you get close. And suddenly... there's flower everywhere. The structures are developing beautifully. The buds have presence. The resin is becoming more obvious. The plant is carrying herself beautifully. And now... that aroma. 😂🍇 It's almost like she's compensating for every centimetre she doesn't occupy with another level of personality. "I'm not going to take over your room. I'll just make sure you know I'm here." 😂💗 Fair enough. Message received. ──────────────────────── ❄️ THE FROSTY LITTLE PRINCESS ──────────────────────── And visually? She's still absolutely beautiful. The flowers continue to develop that gorgeous frosty appearance. The resin is becoming increasingly obvious. The camera gets closer... and suddenly you see another layer. Trichomes. Pistils. Flower structure. Sugar leaves. Texture. All those little details that disappear when you're standing across the room. That's another reason I love photographing her. She's easy to photograph from the outside... but she's even more interesting when you get closer. And that's exactly what these photographs are showing. The plant may have a manageable footprint... but there's a lot happening inside that footprint. 💗❄️🌸 ──────────────────────── 📸 SHE MAKES MY JOB EASY ──────────────────────── I have to admit... Pink Rosay is one of those plants that makes the photographer's life easy. 😂📸 She's accessible. Her structure is easy to understand. Her flowers are visible. And now that they're becoming more developed... there's something interesting everywhere you point the camera. A wider shot gives you the whole personality. A closer shot gives you the flower structure. And then you go macro... and suddenly you're lost in a world of frost. 😂❄️📸 That's one of the reasons I enjoy documenting this stage. Every week adds another layer. The plant doesn't suddenly become completely different. She simply becomes more herself. And Pink Rosay's "herself" is looking pretty damn good. ──────────────────────── 🌿 THE 8×8 ADVENTURE — SAME ROOM, DIFFERENT STORY ──────────────────────── For anyone joining this diary now... welcome to the madness. 😂🌿 The 8×8 Adventure is about putting twelve different genetic expressions into the same general environment and watching what happens. Same room. Same lighting ecosystem. Same general environmental strategy. Same 12/12 schedule. Same grower. Same overall nutritional philosophy. And yet... completely different plants. Some are enormous. Some are compact. Some stretch. Some barely seem interested in stretching. Some are loud. Some are quiet. Some smell fruity. Some smell completely different. Some build huge flowers. Some build dense little structures. And Pink Rosay? She's showing us that a plant doesn't need to be enormous to become unforgettable. 💗🌿 She's her own story. And that's exactly what we came here to document. ──────────────────────── 💡 SAME PHOTONS. DIFFERENT INTERPRETATION. ──────────────────────── The lighting environment remains part of the same upgraded setup we've been running across the room. The additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures have given us more lighting capability and more flexibility across the canopy. But the important part isn't simply having more power. It's having control. We don't need to run everything flat out just because we can. We adjust. We observe. We let the plants respond. And Pink Rosay is receiving the same general lighting environment as everybody else. Yet look at her. She's interpreting those photons in her own way. She's not trying to become a giant. She's simply using what she's receiving to keep building. And honestly... she seems pretty happy with the arrangement. 💡☀️💗 ──────────────────────── ☀️ THE ARTIFICIAL SUN KEEPS SHINING ──────────────────────── This is still one of my favourite parts of this whole experiment. We create one artificial sun. We put all these different plants underneath it. And then... they tell us what they want to become. 😂 We don't get twelve identical answers. We get twelve different interpretations. Pink Rosay's answer seems to be: "Give me light. I'll give you flowers. And I'll give you enough smell to make sure you don't forget where I am." 😂🍇💗 I can live with that. ──────────────────────── ⚗️ THE ROOM IS STARTING TO SLOW DOWN ──────────────────────── We're also moving into that transition period across the room where the nutritional program begins to step down. And this is where the grower's role becomes even more about observation. The major work? Done. The plants have built their structures. They've developed their flowers. They've established themselves. Now we're watching them mature. We're not trying to force another giant growth phase. We're not trying to reinvent the plants. We're simply continuing to provide what they need while watching the story unfold. And Pink Rosay? She's doing exactly what Pink Rosay does. 😂💗 Growing. Developing. Smelling absolutely fantastic. And making me wonder where she's going next. ──────────────────────── ✂️ THE WORK IS MOSTLY DONE ──────────────────────── This is probably the biggest thing I feel at this point in the adventure. The heavy lifting is behind us. Earlier in the grow, there was plenty to do. Structure. Training. Tucking. Adjustments. Canopy work. Watching the stretch. Making decisions. Solving little problems. Now? Not so much. 😂 And that's okay. Because the plants are doing the work. Our job now is to provide. Observe. Maintain. Adjust when necessary. And wait. Eventually, of course... the harvest work will come. And then the gloves come off. 😂✂️ But we're not there yet. For now... we're watching. And Pink Rosay is putting on quite a show. ──────────────────────── 🍇 THE AROMA IS BECOMING PART OF THE DIARY ──────────────────────── I think this deserves another mention because it's genuinely becoming one of the defining characteristics of this girl. The aroma. It's no longer something I have to search for. It's there. She's announcing herself. 😂🍇 And I keep coming back to that vineyard comparison. It's strange. But it's the closest description my brain can find. Fruity. Sweet. Grape-like. Rich. Mature. Almost as if you're standing between rows of grapevines with the fruit hanging there fully developed. That's the impression. And the crazy part? She's not some massive plant filling the entire room. She's relatively compact. Yet somehow... she's one of the girls making sure the whole room knows she's here. 😂💗🍇 I absolutely love that. ──────────────────────── 💗 HOW CAN SOMETHING THIS COMPACT BE THIS LOUD? ──────────────────────── Seriously. How? 😂 This is the question of the week. How can a plant with this kind of footprint produce this kind of presence? It's almost unfair. She's not physically dominating the room. She's not towering over everybody. But between the flowers... the frost... the structure... and now the aroma... she has absolutely no problem making herself noticed. She's basically saying: "You may not see me first... but you'll smell me." 😂🍇👑 Okay, princess. Message received. ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FLOWERS KEEP GETTING MORE INTERESTING ──────────────────────── And underneath all the aroma... the flowers are still progressing beautifully. They're becoming more substantial. The structures are becoming increasingly mature. The resin remains one of the visual highlights. The pistils continue to give the flowers their own character. And when you look at the plant as a whole... she has that beautiful combination of compact structure and serious flower presence. That's what I keep coming back to. She's not huge. She's not tiny. She's simply... Pink Rosay. And somehow that's enough to make her stand out. ──────────────────────── 👑 MY COMPACT PRINCESS ──────────────────────── I think the nickname is officially permanent. 😂💗👑 My Compact Princess. Not because she's the smallest. Not because she's the biggest. But because she's got this little combination of elegance, structure, beauty and personality that keeps pulling my attention back to her. She's one of the plants where I don't need to invent a reason to be excited. I just walk in... look at her... and smile. And now I walk in... smell her... and smile even more. 😂🍇💗 That's a pretty good plant. ──────────────────────── 🔍 WHAT AM I WATCHING NOW? ──────────────────────── At this stage, my questions are becoming very simple. 🌸 How much more will the flowers develop? ❄️ How much more frost will she show? 🍇 Where is this aroma going? 🌿 How will her colours continue to evolve? 💗 How much more character will she reveal? And perhaps the biggest question: What the hell is this girl going to smell like when she decides she's completely finished? 😂🍇 I genuinely don't know. And I'm very curious. We're still watching. Still documenting. Still enjoying. No predictions. No forcing. Just letting Pink Rosay tell us where she's going. ──────────────────────── 😂 SOMETIMES THE PLANT DOESN'T NEED OUR HELP ──────────────────────── This is another thing I've really learned from this run. Sometimes... you just have to get out of the way. 😂 The plant doesn't need another intervention. She doesn't need me trying to make her bigger. She doesn't need me trying to make her taller. She doesn't need me trying to change her personality. She's already doing beautifully. So what am I going to do? I'm going to give her what she needs. I'm going to keep an eye on her. I'm going to make the adjustments that actually matter. And then... I'm going to let her do her thing. Because apparently... she's pretty good at it. 💗🌿 ──────────────────────── 🌸 SHE'S STILL MOVING ──────────────────────── Even though we're getting into the quieter part of the grow... she's still moving. She's still developing. She's still changing. She's still becoming more fragrant. She's still building. And that's what makes these weekly reports worthwhile. Because every week gives us another little piece of the puzzle. Sometimes the change is dramatic. Sometimes it's subtle. And sometimes... it's simply: "She's even louder this week." 😂🍇 I'll take that. ──────────────────────── 💭 FINAL THOUGHTS — I STILL LOVE THIS GIRL ──────────────────────── Week 12. Pink Rosay Auto. Pheno A. My Compact Princess. And yes... I'm still completely in love with her. 😂💗👑 She's not the biggest. She's not the smallest. She's not trying to be either. She's simply herself. Beautiful. Compact. Substantial. Frosty. Flower-loaded. Easy to appreciate. And now... ridiculously aromatic. 🍇🍇🍇 The fruity sweetness. The grape-like character. That mature vineyard feeling. It's becoming one of the most memorable parts of her story. And I'm genuinely curious to see where it goes from here. Because if she's already this loud... what happens next? 😂 I don't know. And that's exactly why I'm watching. The big work is mostly behind us. The plants have done the structural work. Now they're writing the final chapters of their flowering stories. Eventually we'll enter the harvest chapters. Eventually we'll get the scissors. Eventually we'll trim. Eventually we'll dry. Eventually we'll cure. But for now? No rush. We're still here. Watching the flowers. Smelling the room. Taking photographs. And enjoying every little change. And Pink Rosay? She's standing there like the little princess she is... quietly looking beautiful... while absolutely screaming her presence through the entire room. 😂💗🍇👑 How can something this compact be this loud? I have no idea. But I absolutely love it. So let's give her the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's appreciate the flowers. Let's appreciate the frost. Let's appreciate the structure. Let's appreciate the aroma. And let's see where this beautiful girl decides to take us next. Pink Rosay Pheno A... still my favourite. Still my Compact Princess. Still absolutely beautiful. And now... officially one of the loudest girls in the room. 💗🍇🌸❄️👑 ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU ──────────────────────── Another week. Another chapter. And another reminder that sometimes the plants you fall in love with aren't necessarily the biggest ones. They're simply the ones that speak to you. And Pink Rosay? She speaks loudly. 😂🍇💗 A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document the 8×8 Adventure and share these individual stories week after week. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Pink Rosay genetics and for giving us this beautiful little princess to follow. 🌸💗 Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of the journey. 🌱 A huge thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting and especially for supplying the additional fixtures that have allowed us to expand the lighting capability of the room. 💡💚 Thank you to LumiFlora for helping illuminate the deeper areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable behind the scenes. And of course... thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person who stops by each week to see what these girls are doing. It genuinely means a lot. And Pink Rosay? You're still my favourite. 😂💗👑 Not because you're the biggest. Not because you're the smallest. Not because you're trying to be anything other than yourself. But because you're simply... you. Beautiful. Compact. Frosty. Flower-loaded. Sweet. Fruity. Grape-like. And LOUD. Very, very loud. 😂🍇🍇🍇 So let's keep watching. Let's keep documenting. Let's keep enjoying the ride. The big work is mostly done. Now we watch the plants write the final parts of this chapter. And this Compact Princess? She's definitely got more to say. 💗🌸🍇❄️👑 Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! 🌱💚 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle... where the giants keep getting bigger, the flowers keep getting heavier, the photographer keeps chasing the perfect shot, and apparently... our Compact Princess has decided she needs the entire room to know exactly where she is. 😂🍇👑 Let her shine.

Wow... She's really entered flowering this week! I've had to bend over her main cola so is could receive light as opposed to growing above it 😂 😕 Also she's been stretching like crazy. I have backbuilt quite a few bud sites. We will see in the coming weeks how effective this has been.

So far first week of flower been great, watching as the days goes by. I defoliated and top dressed a week before flip and they are super bushy already. Looking forward to stripping them again sometime end of next week. Feed them every other water with little run of, soil and water ph tested every other day. No complaints so far. Happy growing everyone. Stay bless

The Mars Hydro FC-E1500, the Inkbird dehumidifier, and the auto-draining pot stands have all arrived this week. I will set up the pest control, nutrients, and the Exhale CO2 bag when I return from Italy. I will be leaving for 9 days next week, and I must admit, it makes me quite nervous to leave the house for a trip. However, I have tested the automation system, and it should take care of the light cycle and feeding/watering remotely. It is surprising to see that the "normal" leaves are already twice the size of the round cotyledons (or "seed leaves") after just 4 days. This indicates that my autoflowering plants have already entered the vegetative growth stage. It's a positive sign that the autoflowering genetics are taking effect and the plants are progressing rapidly, even at this early stage. The DLI (Daily Light Integral) of 18.6, which I have set, is ideal for supporting this quick transition. Providing sufficient light intensity and duration during the vegetative stage is crucial for autoflowering strains as it fuels their accelerated growth and development. I have been watching the size and appearance of the leaves to track the plants' progress. Maintaining the optimal environmental conditions I have been going for including an 18/6 photoperiod, a temperature range of 24-28°C, and a relative humidity (RH) of 55-70%, which should theoretcially enable my autoflowers to continue thriving in the vegetative stage. The fact that my plants have reached this milestone within the first 3 days is a promising indication of a fast and productive growth cycle.

Comecei uma semana realizando o treinamento de baixo estresse e uma desfoliação. Não fiz poda top, não acho que seja adequado para plantas rápidas. Vamos ver como vai ser o resultado. Não pretendo mais fazer intervenções no crescimento. A pequena lá do fundo não vou mexer .

Waiting and waiting . Add more nutrients for bloom . Everything looks good ...i buy new box only 60x60 for veg phase . I cant wait 4 months 😀 so now every two monts i grow 4 plants . Next round mimosa orange punch and superboof from barney and maybe something for outdoor

Start of week 8 and the plants are crowning all over the place, except for the sativa dominate pheno. All plants will get water only for week 8 and 9 , looks like they will be ready for harvest at 9 1/2 weeks. Pheno number 2 looks to be the only one fastest to mature. So far the gavita pro 1700e is out performing 1000 watt hps hands down had to plug in the hps on days when outdoor temps is in the mid 80 degree just to get grow room temps to hit 83 to 84 degrees so co2 gets used more efficiently. Looks like the gravitas will crush it in dry weight too.

Growing nicely thinking about flipping her soon..what do you guys think

13/11 - Watered with 2ml/L Soil A & B each, 0.5 grams of Kraken Roots 16/11 - Watered with 2ml/L Soil A & B each, 1.0 gram of Kraken Roots 18/11 - Watered with plain water - PH 6.2 - started LST 20/11 - Watered with 2ml/L Soil A & B each, 1.0 gram of Kraken Roots 13/11 - So far this week the plants are taking off - loads of growth under 20/4 lighting. Plant 3 in particular is growing super strong! 18/11 - Applied LST, wasnt sure if maybe it was too early? Seems to have quite a few nodes but my plants seem pretty short/compact. 20/11 - Plants went a little down hill since LST - removed the LST and watered them - found lights were ~50cm from the plants so moved to 61cm - reduced hours from 20/4 to 18/6.

She went for way longer than i thought! I really do think yeild wise she would have been a monster if she stayed under 18h of light instead of the 15h of light outdoors.

Yo yo yo what's poppin fellas. We now in week 6. Had a little defolliation going today. 3G is my favorite so far. It smells amazing.

Start of week 3 for the girls @fastbuds 🙌🏻🙌🏻 Growing and looking strong 💪🏻 !
