The germinated seeds were planted with the white tap-root pointing downwards into small pots (0,25 l) with light-mix from Goldlabel.nl. During week 1 almost all seeds came up and grew into small seedlings. Some late-comers like the MAC are just peaking out of the soil, while others are already small plants of 5-7 cm size. During this phase I only use one single S4W-LED lamp from SANlight in Austria. The fixture is appr. 50 cm above the babies and this is plenty of light for the small seedlings. They get a little bit of BIO NOVA roots with their water, because this enhances root growth a lot and helps the babies to stay healthy until they are tall enough to be repotted. Don't let the pics with the KANNABIA strain-markers in the small pots confuse you, the genetics are all different strains from different producers (see germination)! Three strains are from KANNABIA SEEDS (the Kritikal-K, the Pineapple Dream and the Skit Kandy Dream), but they came with a bunch of handy plastic strain markers, which I used for all my plants/pots.

About 60 days in now and the plants are done getting taller. Buds are starting to get bigger and everything is starting to get nice and frosty, still have a long way to go on this one I think. I just got done with a res change and filled it back up with more Cropsalt at 3.4 g/Gal Bloom A and 1.74 g/Gal Bloom B. This stuff seems great so far, PH is super stable and the plants seem to like it.

Sorry having issues uploading these pic went to week 4 somehow? But is actually week4 flowering, also brewing tea give my plants a little love. 05/09/2018 The boy's have been shaken twice a day last two days,dispersing copious amounts of pollen i mean clouds! It's forming layers in my tent, wish I could capture on video but its not picking it up😕 hoping it relates to strong offspring. 05/12/2018 Fourth week of flowering males are in overdrive! Making clouds of pollen I am gonna harvest some for later use (it can last 6months or more of stored correctly. I try and get video. Wish me luck👍🙏 05/14/2018 Harvesting pollen from the the boys. Video not greatest but you get the idea., Picture of #1 pollen and flower,will keep harvesting for a couple days, then cut off flowers and back to veg tent for more test. 06/18/2018 Coming up on sixth weeks after pollination, found two seeds popping out of the buds LAST week and I r germinated today!

The plant has recovered well from the last capping and defoliation🏻‍♀️ A few leaves have yellowed a little, but that's not so bad🏻‍♂️ It will get a compost tea🍵 in a few days when it is sent into flower and then everything will be fine again😊💪🏻🏻 The compost tea is brewed and was given to the Watermelon Runtz at day 49 of Veg🍉🏃‍♂️

Looking fantastic, every day she's looking better and better. Not seeing anymore issues with the leaves. Looks very happy and leaves nice and full and perky. Has been drinking 4L every two days. Typically get about 500-750ml runoff per watering. I've been feeding once a week and just water with CalMag for everyother watering. So basically feed, water, water, feed. Measuring my ppm run off on the water days are showing the plant is eating and typically on the second be day of watering I see the ppm really start to drop, near 1000ppm. My feeding mixture is around 1480ppm with my tap water baseline of 298ppm. Feel like I have a good handle on everything now and learned from my previous mistakes, but that's how you learn She's looking great the past week, looks like buds are starting to grow. See a lighter lime green on all my tops. Did some major defoliation borderline lollipopping there's a few smaller ones I'm keeping you around just to see what happens. Tried to remove as many leaves that were blocking Bud sites or not getting much light or just kind of look stupid lol Very happy with how everything is going. I had a blood skunk auto seed going bud unfortunately some bug decided to eat the entire top of my seedling and killed it. is what it is a little bummed out but I'll definitely have to pick up some of those seeds in the future was a free one I got with my strawberry banana for next round, with some hash passion Gave her another haircut at the of the week to make sure all the tops are getting light and remove all the lower suckers and the largest leaves as big as my hand

🍑 Passion Fruitz by Zamnesia – Week 9 | The Girl Who Refuses to Hurry Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 At this point, I think we can officially stop pretending that Passion Fruitz is going to hurry up. She's not. 😂🍑 We're now at week 9 from seed, and this girl has been showing signs of flowering for roughly three weeks. Three weeks. And somehow, when I look at her, I get the feeling she's still thinking about whether she really wants to commit to the idea. She's giving us the same message she's been giving us for weeks: “I'm getting there. Relax.” And honestly? I've learned to listen. Because while Passion Fruitz may be incredibly slow compared with the rest of the tent, she's certainly not doing nothing. She's building. She's growing. She's staying beautiful. And she's giving us another fascinating example of just how differently genetics can behave when they're given the same environment. 🐌 The Slowest Girl in the Room If you've been following this phenotype from the beginning, you already know her reputation. Passion Fruitz is slow. Not a little slow. Not slightly behind. We're talking about a plant that seems to have completely rejected the concept of rushing. 😂 The other plants around her have moved further into flowering, while Passion Fruitz continues to take her time. We're now several weeks into seeing those first signs of flower development, and the transition is still remarkably gradual. But here's the important part: She doesn't look unhappy. She doesn't look weak. She doesn't look like she's struggling. She's simply on her own schedule. And that distinction matters. Because this is exactly what makes a phenotype hunt so interesting. 🌱 Slow Doesn't Mean She's Standing Still Although her flowering transition has been painfully slow, the plant itself has continued developing beautifully. She's around 72 cm, with a compact, powerful structure and some absolutely beautiful foliage. And those leaves... Wow. They're big. They're beautifully formed. They're carrying that lush green colour that makes this girl so enjoyable to photograph. When I look at her, I don't see a plant that has stopped growing. I see a plant that has spent a lot of time investing in her structure. Strong branches. A dense framework. Large fan leaves. Healthy new growth. She's been building the machine. She's just taking her time deciding when to turn that machine completely toward flowers. 🍑 Three Weeks of "Almost There" This is probably the funniest part of her story right now. We've watched her start showing signs of flowering. Then we watched her continue showing signs of flowering. And now we're watching her... continue showing signs of flowering. 😂😂😂 At this point I'm starting to wonder whether Passion Fruitz has invented her own flowering stage. Maybe this is Passion Fruitz Extended Pre-Flower. But jokes aside, this is actually a fascinating observation. Under the same overall environmental strategy as the rest of the room, she's expressing a very different developmental rhythm. And that's precisely the kind of thing I wanted this project to reveal. The plants don't read the diary. They don't look at the calendar. They don't care what week everyone else is in. They follow their genetics. And this girl apparently has a very long internal calendar. 🍃 The Green I Love One thing I absolutely don't have any complaints about is her foliage. She continues to look beautiful. The colour is strong. The leaves are large. The structure is healthy. And the new growth continues looking vibrant. This is another reason I'm not interested in trying to force her into somebody else's timeline. If the plant is healthy and continuing to develop, then there is value in simply observing. I don't need to make her flower faster just because the plants beside her are further ahead. The entire point is to see what she wants to do. And Passion Fruitz is making that lesson very easy. 🌿 A Structure Worth Looking At The more I photograph this girl, the more I appreciate her architecture. She's not a giant plant. She's not trying to reach the ceiling. But she's compact, sturdy and beautifully built. The large fan leaves give her an almost tropical appearance, while the branching structure underneath shows just how much development has happened before the flowering phase really got moving. There is something quite satisfying about seeing a plant like this. She's essentially saying: “I may be late, but when I arrive, I'll have something to show you.” And now I'm genuinely curious whether that's exactly what she's planning. 📸 Back to the Studio This week I decided Passion Fruitz deserved another trip to the studio. And I'm glad I did. Sometimes when you're looking at plants inside the tent, surrounded by lights, equipment and twenty-plus other plants, it's easy to overlook the individual beauty of one phenotype. Put her on her own... and suddenly you notice everything. The size of those leaves. The colour. The spacing. The branching. The little details in the new growth. The personality of the plant itself. That's one of the reasons I enjoy photography so much during this project. The camera forces me to slow down. And with Passion Fruitz... apparently we're already very good at slowing down. 😂📸🍑 💡 Same Room. Very Different Story. The 8×8 Adventure continues to prove one thing over and over again: Genetics matter. We're giving these plants the same general environment. The same lighting philosophy. The same irrigation system. The same shared reservoir. The same overall cultivation strategy. Yet Passion Fruitz has chosen a completely different timeline. Some phenotypes race into flowering. Some stretch aggressively. Some build flowers almost immediately. And Passion Fruitz? She takes her time. That's not necessarily a disadvantage. It's simply her story. And we're here to document it rather than rewrite it. 💧 Feeding & Consistency The room continues following the same flowering nutrition strategy: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ Lemon Kick / pH Plus as required The solution remains around EC 2.0 mS/cm, with pH around 6.0. The important thing with a phenotype like Passion Fruitz is resisting the temptation to chase her timeline with unnecessary changes. She's slow. We've established that. 😂 But she's healthy. She's growing. She's developing. So consistency remains the approach. Give her the same foundation. Watch what she does with it. And let the genetics speak. 🌡️ Environment The room remains stable: 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC/TDS: approximately 2.0 mS/cm 💦 Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 💨 CO₂: 636 ppm 💧 Watering: approximately 1.3 L/plant/24h ? Pot size: 15 L 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 Nothing dramatic has changed. And that consistency gives us an even better opportunity to observe just how differently this phenotype behaves. 💡 Lighting the Slow Girl The lighting strategy continues to be particularly interesting with Passion Fruitz. The overhead lighting provides the main source, while the additional lighting deeper in the canopy helps us observe what happens beyond the top layer. Her structure gives us plenty of foliage to work with, and as flowering continues to develop, I'm curious to see how those sites respond throughout the plant. Again, there is no rush. We're simply watching. And documenting. And waiting. Patiently. Very patiently. 😂🍑 🔍 What I'm Watching Now At this point, my biggest question is incredibly simple: How long is Passion Fruitz actually going to take? We're entering week 9 from seed. We've been watching flowering signs for around three weeks. And she's still moving at her own wonderfully frustrating pace. But here's the thing... I'm no longer annoyed by it. I'm fascinated. Because eventually, she will have to reveal where this story is going. Will she suddenly accelerate? Will the flower sites begin developing more rapidly? Will she remain the slowest girl in the room all the way through? I honestly don't know. And that's exactly why I'm enjoying her. 🍑 Beauty Doesn't Have a Schedule Sometimes we get so focused on timelines that we forget to look at the plant itself. Passion Fruitz may be behind the others in flowering development. But look at her. She's beautiful. Beautiful colour. Beautiful leaves. Beautiful structure. Healthy growth. And a phenotype that has already given us a completely different story from almost everything else in the room. She's not late. She's just writing a different calendar. And I'm perfectly happy to keep turning the pages. 🔮 Looking Ahead So what happens next? Honestly... we wait. 😂 I want to see whether this slow transition finally begins accelerating. I want to see the flowering sites become more defined. I want to see whether her impressive structure translates into equally impressive flower development once she finally decides to commit. And most importantly, I want to continue documenting her exactly as she is. No forcing. No unnecessary intervention. No trying to make Passion Fruitz become another phenotype. She's Passion Fruitz. And apparently, Passion Fruitz takes her sweet time. 💚 The Girl Who Makes Us Wait There are plants in this project that make you excited because they're explosive. There are plants that impress you because they're enormous. There are plants that surprise you with their colours or aromas. And then there's this girl. She makes you wait. And wait. And wait. 😂🍑 But every time I look at her, I find another detail worth appreciating. The leaves. The structure. The colour. The development. The potential. And that little question sitting in the back of my mind: “What happens when this girl finally decides it's time?” That's what I'm waiting for. 🙏 Thank You Another week. Another chapter. And another reminder that plants don't care about our schedules. Passion Fruitz continues to be the slowest girl in the room, and at this point, I think she's earned the title permanently. 😂🍑 But slow doesn't mean uninteresting. Quite the opposite. She's giving us one of the most unique stories in the entire 8×8 Adventure. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries — for providing the platform where we can document these journeys, learn from one another and share the results. 🍑 Zamnesia — for the Passion Fruitz genetics that gave us this wonderfully patient phenotype. 🌱 Plagron — for the nutrition supporting the garden throughout the cycle. 💡 Future of Grow LED — for providing the lighting powering the room. 🌡️ TrolMaster — for helping maintain a stable environment. ✨ LumiFlora — for the additional lighting helping us explore development deeper into the canopy. And of course, thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Whether you're here every week, dropping a comment, asking questions, sharing your own experience, or simply watching quietly... thank you. This project wouldn't be the same without you. Passion Fruitz... Week 9 from seed. Still slow. Still beautiful. Still green. Still building. Still taking her time. And still making us wonder: “Girl... when are you actually going to flower?” 😂🍑 But that's okay. We're not going anywhere. We'll wait. Because maybe the slowest girl in the room has simply been saving her story for later. And when she finally decides to tell it... I want to be there with the camera ready. 📸🍑💚 Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! 🌱💚

🍊 Correction time! Alright guys, I have to admit — I totally mixed things up somewhere during transplant 😅 Turns out this one here is actually Sweet Mandarine Z, not Mental Rainbow. And the one that’s listed under Sweet Mandarine Z is in fact the Mental Rainbow 🌈😂 Unfortunately, GrowDiaries doesn’t let me edit the strain name anymore (thanks, GD 😩), but I wanted to make it clear for everyone following along. 👉 So just to keep it transparent: – This diary = Sweet Mandarine Z 🍊 – The other one = Mental Rainbow 🌈 Both are from Sweet Seeds, and both are turning out absolutely amazing 🔥 If you enjoy my grows and want to see even more updates, follow me on Instagram: @Dendegrow 🌿📸 I post there more often — with extra tips, tricks & grow insights 🌱💡 🍊 Korrektur-Post! Okay Leute, ich muss zugeben — ich habe beim Umtopfen wohl die Pflanzen vertauscht 😅 Diese hier ist nämlich Sweet Mandarine Z, und nicht Mental Rainbow. Und die, die unter Sweet Mandarine Z läuft, ist in Wahrheit die Mental Rainbow 🌈😂 Leider kann man bei GrowDiaries den Sortennamen nachträglich nicht mehr ändern (danke dafür 😩), aber ich wollte das hier klarstellen, damit alle Bescheid wissen. 👉 Zur Übersicht: – Dieses Tagebuch = Sweet Mandarine Z 🍊 – Das andere = Mental Rainbow 🌈 Beide stammen von Sweet Seeds – und beide entwickeln sich absolut großartig 🔥 Wenn euch meine Grows gefallen, folgt mir gerne auch auf Instagram: @Dend 🌿📸 Dort poste ich noch mehr Inhalte mit Infos, Tipps und Tricks rund ums Growen 🌱💡
