Aug 24: Cheese is doing fine. Don’t take flash pics of photoperiods unless you’re immediately using a 730 nm far red light to put them into dark mode. Aug 26: gave the plants another lazy compost tea. I was holding off for a couple weeks to avoid giving them too much N. Aug 28: defoliated some inner branches that were crowding things.

Jo

acho que ainda consegui produzir uns tricomas com as correções da água, mas como o estágio da floração já estava bem avançado, as folhas começaram a descolorir muito cedo, tive que colher 3 plantas precocemente, as outras 3 menos vou tentar seguir mais 2 semanas, não estão mostrando tricomas Ambar ainda!

Merry Christmas and happy 🎄 holiday 🎁 🎅

Tag 34 - 03.01.2025 Es gibt keine Veränderungen. Tag 40 - 09.01.2025 Es wurde etwas enlaubt, die Pflanze wächst weiterhin sehr kompakt.

Day 70: Watered the plants 0.5L without nuts, 4L total, 170 ppm, 360 us/cm, PH 6.5 Flushing from today Day 73: Watered the plants 1L without nuts, 8L total Day 75: Watered the plants 1L without nuts, 8L total

The plant is really small hopefully there are a few grams xD and now it is even infested towards the end and has to go out in quarantine lol

All feeds with nutes use either a whole ratio or combination of "Veg Mix" and "Bloom Mix"concentrates DILUTED in water until a total ppm of add in is reached using a (Total Dissolved Solids)TDS Meter measured in PPM (parts per million). The "Veg Mix" concentrate will eventually be added in smaller ratios and "Bloom Mix" concentrate what will eventually replace the "Veg Mix" concentrate entirely with the ppm and ratios listed when I feed. Veg mix recipe is on week 3. Bloom Mix recipe is on week 5. Day 70/0 Flipped to 12/12 - increased ppfd by 100 and worked to stabilize temps/humidity with new gear. I used 15 minutes of IR light before main lights and then 30 minutes of UV light at mid day and will still use 15 minutes of IR light after main light are out. I plan to increase the time of UV lights to a max of 2.5 hours per day mid day but for now Im easing her into the treatments. Watered with 1.12 gallons of 6.3ph de-chlorinated tap water, used 50ppm of veg mix and 50ppm of bloom mix in the water. VPD is mostly steady 74F/65%RH/33%ILV Day 71/1 tested and calibrated my meter, tested the top soil 1 day after feed for ph - tested 4 times for an avg of 6.48 Trimmed brown leaves and did some HST/LST training/binding. Took control pics for UV treatments of 15 minutes per day. Will monitor and increase weekly it she holds up okay. Still doin 15 minutes of IR light before and after lights on/off. PPFD after training was 630 at highest and 540 lowest. VPD was 74F/60%RH/33%ILV Day 72/2 Just a watch today, VPD was 75F/60%RH/setting 4/10 of ILV (about 33% like the last tent) PPFD ranged from 530 to 650. I only used 5 minutes of UV light today as she has a tinge of browning on the tips of a few leaves. Im not cutting it out completely because I still plan to use upto 2.5 hrs by end of flower, so she needs to adjust. Im also still using 15 minutes of IR before and after main light schedule. Her stretch seems to be picking up, from 16 inches 2 days ago to 18 today. Day 73/3 VPD same as yesterday 75F/60%RH/40%ILV PPFD hit 670 at highest and 550 at lowest. Stayed with 5 minutes of UV light and monitored burnt tips from previous days... no spread, so I may add 5 more minutes tomorrow and monitor. 15 minutes of IR before/after main light schedule. Growth continues, another inch in stretch to 19 inches. I turned her slightly because there are still two runted colas that I rather provide more light to. It's been 3 days since last feed and I think with as much growth as she's putting on, I should feed again tomorrow. Im still introducing nutes in lower portions but will add 300ppm and feed about 2 gallons at a 25/75 ratio of veg:bloom mix to see if I can get some run off to measure conditions. Day 74/4 Watered with 2 gallons of 6.4 ph de-chlorinated tap water. I added 300ppm total of 25% Veg/75% Bloom. Starting ppm was 296; ending was 595 and I added a pinch of epsom salt. Poured over the whole base until I got runoff - Since I was so close to the whole 2 gallons, I used it all. I only used the feed water over the roots today as I want her to get the nutes from the soil since the transfer into new soil was so recent. So far VPD is 75F/60%RH/40%ILV. No issues with controls. PPFD was upto 700 at center so I raised the lights to almost 42" from soil - Since the plant is almost 20" that's 22" leaves to light. New PPFD now ranges at 480 to 650 on 70% power. I increased UV time to 10minutes today and took control pics for light burn. I am still using 15 IR before and after main lights. Took some black back picks since I think she's looking good now. Day 75/5 Started the day with evaluation of ph and control pics. Comparisons show no further spread of lock out issues from earlier or light burn of a more recent change. Upto 20 inches before HST/LST today. Meter was tested/calibrated and soil ph was tested 4 times for avg of 6.34 (yesterday's runoff was about 6.35 too) Soil temp is about 66F. Also tested CO2 and got 1050. Room VPD was 74F/60%RH/30%ILV I spread the leaves further apart because I noticed there were two colas not getting as much light and somewhat crowded by the colas near by. So I positioned the larger part of the tomato ring around the limbs extending here out to 32x32 and the used HST/LST to break and bend the center colas inward clockwise (I think I went a bit too hard on one as the others already show a bounce back and now one is still limp-ish (will monitor obviously) But with that the height is now 18" so 32x32x18 - but here's the kicker, I only have a 24x48 tent, so there's a few colas touching the walls and doorway now, so I may have to reconsider the larger ring. New position, new PPFD right?, not exactly, for some reason these settings still gave me range of 480 to 650 as I had yesterday with just a few more of the outer colas have 480 than yesterday. However, there's more light getting lower levels now and I only had to cut 1 leaf. Which is good because I did 15 minutes of UV today with the regular 15 minutes of IR before and after main lights. Day 76/6 VPD is a lil wonky now as humidity is starting to go up in the tent - so I plan to put in the dehumidifier this weekend and just leaving the humidifier off today and tomorrow. Heat seems to also be ticking up - so I reduced the temp on the heater and will monitor. Temps about 75 to 76 - humidity at about 62% as high as 65 though and Im trying to be at or under 60 this week. Increased ILV to 40% I repositioned the fans to hang on the lights while blowing down onto the plant. I tried to make every leaf dance a little. LST seemed to hold up okay - had to reposition a few branches and thinking I may have to build a larger box this weekend since the colas are now pressing the door and back wall. PPFD is between 470 and 700. I used 15 minutes of UV mid day with 15 minutes (30 total) IR before and after main light timers.

Yea yea yea it’s showtime. She hasn’t given me any problems so far hopefully she stays that way been pretty easy grow with her so far

Time is not on my side as my wedding cake in the other tent is becoming a beast and I want the small tent for the rest of the flowering stage of the wedding cake . So being as its week 11 she will be getting chopped at the weekend which will be around day 77. I think its taken such a long time due to her being more sativa inclined. The grow has gone quite well with no deficiencies that i've noticed. The Humidity is also on the high side so thats another reason to get her chopped soon. I have reduced the nutrients down now for this final week and also reduced the light hours to give her the sign to hurry up lol though she finishing i think at her own pace

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno A Week 6 | Flowers Take the Lead One of the things I enjoy most about running a phenotype hunt is watching each plant reveal her personality one week at a time. Some explode with vigorous stretch. Others remain compact while quietly building flowers. Cash Express Pheno A seems to have found her own rhythm. Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! For anyone joining this diary for the first time, every plant in this project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed method. Instead of deciding when flowering begins by changing the light cycle, every seed receives 12 hours of light from the day it germinates, allowing each phenotype to determine its own pace. Six weeks in, Cash Express Pheno A has fully embraced flowering. Now the focus is no longer on making flowers... It's about building them. ⸻ 🌼 The Flowering Engine Starts Running This week brought one of my favourite moments of early flower. The fresh white pistils that first appeared last week are now multiplying rapidly, and nearly every branch has begun forming small clusters that will eventually become proper buds. The plant may not be the tallest in the room, nor the largest, but she's proving that size isn't everything. Her energy is clearly being invested where it matters. Flower production. The internodes remain nicely spaced, allowing excellent light penetration throughout the canopy, while every growing tip seems eager to become its own flowering site. It's still early... But the blueprint for harvest is already being drawn. ⸻ 🌿 A Hands-Off Approach One thing that hasn't changed this week is my philosophy. Apart from a little gentle leaf tucking, I've deliberately avoided unnecessary intervention. No heavy defoliation. No aggressive pruning. No major training. Early flowering is one of the busiest periods in a plant's life. She's stretching, producing flowers, expanding her root system and adjusting her hormonal balance all at once. Whenever possible, I prefer letting her focus on that work instead of recovering from mine. Sometimes the best thing a grower can do... ...is simply stay out of the way. ⸻ 💧 AutoPot Continues To Deliver The AutoPot system continues doing exactly what it was designed to do. With the AquaValve automatically supplying fresh nutrient solution whenever the tray empties, the plant has complete control over when she drinks. There's no guessing. No fixed watering schedule. Just healthy roots deciding when they need food and water. Week after week, she continues responding beautifully to this consistency, maintaining steady growth while allowing me to focus on observation instead of constant irrigation. Sometimes the smartest systems are also the simplest. ⸻ 🍽️ Feeding This week's reservoir remained straightforward and stable, consisting of: • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L The slight increase in nutrition made last week appears to have done exactly what I hoped. A few of the oldest fan leaves continue fading as the plant naturally reallocates nutrients toward new growth, but the process remains slow, controlled and completely expected. The upper canopy looks healthy, vibrant and full of life. Sometimes older leaves simply finish their job. And that's perfectly okay. Solution parameters remained stable at approximately EC 1.78 mS/cm with a pH of 6.0, providing a comfortable balance for continued flower development. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Environmental conditions remained very consistent throughout the week. • Day temperature averaged 29°C • Night temperature remained around 25°C • Solution temperature stayed close to 22°C • Root zone averaged approximately 21°C • Relative humidity remained near 60% • Atmospheric CO₂ averaged roughly 639 ppm With flowers now beginning to establish themselves across the canopy, maintaining stable conditions becomes increasingly important. Healthy roots, consistent nutrition and a predictable environment allow the plant to dedicate her energy where it matters most—building flowers rather than reacting to stress. Everything continues moving exactly as planned. ⸻ 📸 Behind This Week's Photos This week's photographs capture a very enjoyable stage of the grow. The close-up shots highlight clusters of bright white pistils appearing at nearly every flowering site, while the full-plant portraits reveal a beautifully balanced structure with evenly spaced branches reaching toward the light. One detail that also stands out is the gradual fading of a few lower fan leaves. I intentionally include these moments because real grows aren't about chasing perfection. They're about understanding what the plant is telling us. In this case, she's simply shifting resources toward the next stage of her journey. And honestly... She looks fantastic doing it. ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should bring one of the most exciting transitions yet. The stretch will begin slowing down, while the flowers themselves should start stacking more aggressively along each branch. I'll continue keeping my hands mostly off the plant, limiting myself to occasional leaf tucking whenever a large fan leaf shades an important flowering site. The goal remains simple. Provide the best possible environment... ...and let the genetics do what they were designed to do. If she continues on this path, the coming weeks should become very exciting. ⸻ 💚 Thank You Thank you to everyone following this journey and growing alongside me. Whether you're here to learn something new, compare techniques, ask questions, or simply enjoy watching these beautiful plants develop, I'm genuinely grateful to have you here. A special thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can document, learn and inspire one another. 🌱 Zamnesia for the Cash Express genetics that continue to reveal their unique character with every passing week. 🌿 Plagron for providing the nutrition that supports every stage of this grow. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the consistent lighting that powers this entire project. 💧 AutoPot for making irrigation beautifully simple while allowing the plants themselves to decide when they want to drink. And finally... Thank you to every grower who stops by these diaries. Every comment, every question, every bit of encouragement—and even every constructive criticism—helps make this project more valuable for the entire growing community. Growers Love, and I'll see you next week as Cash Express Pheno A leaves early flower behind and begins the exciting journey of turning these fresh white pistils into the resin-covered flowers we've all been waiting for. 🌱🚂💚

Hi all. I am very pleased with this week's growth and results The Bruce Banner #3 is stacking her nodes perfectly now and has a very wide footprint too. lots of bud sites and mains to add flowers too. Even the shaded lower growth is bursting with new pistils. Candy Rain has 3 very happy mains with lower branching that has bud clusters at the tops . Her open growth pattern will be good to allow the air through amd also the light that dribbles through from the main canopy. She is beginning to put out a slight fruity apple scent now too. The main stems.should form up together nicely too I hope. Both of the Jealousy ladies are very productive with bud clusters and growth all over their huge frames. They ate really good sized girls amd in an open space with lots of light , I could see a huge yield from this strain. I am impressed at how much potential bud is on them under a single shared 450w l.e.d !!! I am at full 14.6g/10L on the megacrop feeds now and adding 5ml of pk warrior too and they are loving it. I am tucking and shuffling leaves around to keep the ladies lower flowers within the range of light. I was pleasantly surprised by the Bruce banners lower growth so will be mindful of the moisture build up now. Until next week. be lucky

So it's now week 2 and week one was a tough one. I believe my nutrient input was a bit to high and kinda burned my seedling and slowed down the growth a bit but I see new growth and we are one track again.

Week idk what number of flower Last week of the mimosas, not the finish that i want, and why is that? PROBABLY A FKN TROPICANNA WAS A HERMIE, and in consequence a all the plants were partially polinated. Things to improve: -Buy a better timer for the light: this one was no accurate, because of this I never knew when my grow was with ligh and without, this cause to expose the plants to: not accurate 13/11, light filtration when i had to water them at night sometimes, etc -Finally setup a water tray to prevent spills on the floor, better the space and not suffer everytime i had to look the plants runoff -Buy a better soil: This was was a hell when dry, totally hidrophobic and waste so much water just to hidrate the first layer, it was really har to make the subtrate runoff if i didnt use 40% of pots volume as water -Calm down with the fertilizer, had a salt accumulation problem that could increase the chances of hermaproditism -Figure a way to control the environment, there were many cold nights lately Last week -0.5 ml micro -2mll Flawless -0.2 Calmag Last pick a little popcorn nug that never polinized i think. Well this was fun anywas,Im preparing a Blueberry Auto run now to fight this cold temps, atay tunes

🍮 Chem Brûlée – Pheno B Week 6 | Finding Her Own Pace Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of the reasons I love running phenotype hunts is because they constantly remind me that there is no such thing as a "perfect timeline." Every plant has her own rhythm. Even sisters sharing the same genetics, the same room, the same lighting, and almost identical nutrition will often choose completely different paths. Chem Brûlée Pheno B continues to be the perfect example of that. While her sister has moved slightly further ahead, Pheno B is taking a steadier, more measured approach to flowering. She's still stretching, still building her structure, and quietly preparing for the weeks ahead. There is absolutely nothing wrong with growing at your own pace. Sometimes those who start a little slower end up surprising everyone in the end. 🌼 Flowers Are Taking Shape This week the flowering transition became even more obvious. The first pistils that appeared last week are now multiplying across the growing tips, with every branch beginning to establish its own future flower site. The main top is starting to take form, while the secondary branches are joining the party one by one. Everything still feels delicate, but that's exactly what makes this stage so exciting. These tiny clusters may not look impressive today, but in only a few weeks they'll become the dense flowers that make all the patience worthwhile. Watching that transformation never gets old. 🌿 Elegant Structure One thing I really enjoy about this phenotype is her overall architecture. Compared to her sister, Pheno B has developed a slightly more open canopy, allowing plenty of airflow and excellent light penetration throughout the plant. Every branch seems to have found its own place without much intervention from me. The internodal spacing is balanced, the stems are strong, and the canopy already has a very natural shape. Sometimes a plant almost trains herself. Those are always enjoyable grows. The foliage remains a rich healthy green, and she's showing plenty of energy as she continues building toward full flower production. 🌱 Gentle Guidance Training remains intentionally simple. Low Stress Training continues helping spread the branches while occasional leaf tucking allows light to reach developing flower sites hidden beneath the canopy. I've resisted the temptation to overwork her. At this stage the goal isn't to force the plant into a specific shape. It's simply to help her make the most of the structure she's already chosen. The less unnecessary stress we create now, the more energy she can dedicate to producing beautiful flowers later. 🍽️ Feeding Strategy Nutrition remains focused on supporting the transition deeper into flowering while maintaining healthy vegetative growth during the final stretch. This week's feeding included: • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • pH adjustments using Lemon Kick and pH Plus when required Everything continues to be based on observation rather than routine. Plants don't read feeding charts. They tell us what they need through their growth, colour, and overall health. Learning to understand those signals is one of the most valuable skills any grower can develop. 🌡️ Environmental Conditions The room continues providing stable conditions for healthy flower development. Average conditions this week included: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • Nutrient solution: 24°C • Root zone: 21°C • CO₂: 639 ppm With flowering progressing, humidity has gradually been reduced to create an ideal environment for the weeks ahead. Stable environmental conditions allow every phenotype to fully express its genetic potential without unnecessary stress. It's amazing how much difference consistency makes over an entire grow. 📸 Capturing Another Chapter This week's photographs show a plant that's confidently settling into early flower. The close-up shots reveal fresh white pistils appearing from every growing tip, while the wider photos showcase a beautifully balanced structure that promises excellent light distribution as the buds continue developing. One thing I particularly enjoy is seeing how different the two Chem Brûlée sisters already look despite sharing the same genetics. That's the beauty of phenotype hunting. No two stories are ever exactly the same. 🔮 Looking Ahead During the coming week I expect Chem Brûlée Pheno B to continue producing new pistils across the canopy while gradually slowing her vertical stretch. The individual flower sites should begin expanding, and the first signs of true bud stacking will become more noticeable. Training will remain light, allowing her natural shape to continue developing while simply helping every branch receive as much light as possible. She's growing with quiet confidence. And sometimes... Those are the plants that end up leaving the biggest impression. 💚 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure. Whether you're here to learn, compare phenotypes, improve your own garden, or simply enjoy watching these incredible plants grow, I'm grateful to have you along for every step of this journey. Special thanks to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can learn from one another and share their passion. Zamnesia for the outstanding genetics making this phenotype hunt possible. 🌱 Plagron for supplying the nutrition supporting every stage of this grow. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light that fuels healthy growth day after day. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable environment around the clock. And finally... Thank you to every grower, follower, supporter, silent reader, friend, and every person who stops by these diaries. Your encouragement, advice, questions, and conversations are what truly make this project worthwhile. I'll see you all next week, where Chem Brûlée Pheno B will continue proving that every phenotype has its own pace, its own personality, and its own unique story to tell. Until then... Growers Love and happy growing, everyone. 🌱🍮💚
