Anorher WeekπŸ˜€ so the training looks godπŸ’ͺ Lot of work, hope it pays of. Think the canopy is the most even I’ve grown before. Everything is at the same height. Even small popcorn sites gets light. It’s winter here so the air is very dry. Flower developing nice. Eating and drinking god. Total EC is 2.0

πŸ’™ 8Γ—8 Adventure – Week 12 🌿 Blueberry Muffin – Pheno B πŸ’š Small, Beautiful & Moving at Her Own Damn Speed Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8Γ—8 Adventure! πŸŒ±πŸ’š And here she is again... Our little Blueberry Muffin Pheno B. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š Still small. Still compact. Still beautiful. And still moving... at approximately the speed of a snail on holiday. πŸ˜‚ But you know what? I absolutely love her for it. Because every time I look at this girl, I see exactly the same thing: A beautiful little plant that simply refuses to rush. She's not trying to catch up with anybody. She's not trying to become a giant. She's not trying to compete with the bigger girls around her. She's just doing what Blueberry Muffin Pheno B apparently decided she wanted to do. Slowly. Quietly. Beautifully. And honestly? She's doing a damn good job. πŸ’šπŸŒΈβœ¨ ──────────────────────── 🌱 The 8Γ—8 Adventure β€” Same Room, Different Rhythms For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8Γ—8 Adventure. The concept behind this project is simple: Twelve different plants. Different genetics. Different phenotypes. One shared room. One general environmental strategy. One 12/12 lighting schedule. One irrigation philosophy. One nutritional program. One lighting ecosystem. One grower. And twelve completely different expressions. That's the beauty of this experiment. The environment gives everyone the same general opportunity. The genetics decide what each plant does with that opportunity. And Blueberry Muffin Pheno B? She's made her decision very clearly. Stay small. Stay compact. Take your time. Build beautiful flowers. And apparently... make the grower wait. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š Fair enough. I'm patient. ──────────────────────── πŸ’š The Little One Keeps Doing Her Thing This girl hasn't suddenly decided to change personality. And I wouldn't want her to. She's still one of the smallest and most compact plants in the room. Around 75 cm. That's it. She's basically looking at all the girls around her and saying: "Yeah... I'm good down here." πŸ˜‚ And honestly? She is good. The plant looks beautiful. The structure is compact. The flowers are developing. The overall appearance remains healthy and vibrant. She's simply progressing much more slowly than many of her neighbours. And that's okay. Slow doesn't mean bad. Slow doesn't mean unsuccessful. Slow means... slow. πŸ˜‚ And that's exactly what this phenotype is showing us. ──────────────────────── 🌸 Beautiful Flower Formation If you stop looking at her height for a moment... that's when she becomes really interesting. Because the flower formation is beautiful. The buds are developing within that compact framework, and there's something very satisfying about watching them slowly become more defined. She's not throwing huge amounts of vertical growth at us. She's not creating enormous distances between flowering sites. Instead, she's building within herself. Compact little structures. Beautiful flowering sites. Increasing density. And plenty of character. This is another one of those plants where I keep thinking: "Okay... you're taking your sweet fucking time." πŸ˜‚πŸ’š But then I look at the flowers and think: "Fine. I'll wait." πŸ˜‚πŸŒΈ ──────────────────────── 🐌 Slow As Fuck β€” But Beautiful Let's just say it honestly. She's slow as fuck. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š Compared with many of the other girls in this room, Blueberry Muffin Pheno B is moving at a completely different rhythm. Some of the plants have already progressed much further. Some are showing much more obvious signs of maturity. Some are beginning to fade. Others are already looking much closer to their final form. And then there's this little girl... Still producing. Still developing. Still carrying plenty of fresh white hairs. Still looking like she has time. A lot of time. πŸ˜‚ But here's the thing: She's not struggling. She's not looking unhappy. She's not looking like something is wrong. She's simply developing slowly. And that's a very important distinction. Her phenotype is telling us how she wants to move through this stage. So instead of trying to force her to catch up... we let her be herself. ──────────────────────── ? Still So Many White Hairs One of the things that really stands out when I compare her with some of the other girls in the room is the number of white pistils she's still carrying. There are a lot of them. ??? While several other plants are showing much more mature-looking flowers and increasingly changing pistil colours, Blueberry Muffin Pheno B still has plenty of fresh white hairs throughout her flowers. And to me, that's another visual reminder that she's simply not at the same point in the journey as some of her neighbours. She's still building. Still developing. Still adding to those flowers. And that's why I'm not looking at her and thinking: "Why aren't you further along?" I'm looking at her and thinking: "Okay... you're just not done yet." πŸ˜‚πŸ’š That's perfectly fine. The plant gets the final vote. ──────────────────────── πŸ’‘ Still Eating Photons The lighting environment continues under the upgraded Future of Grow setup. The two additional Black Series 600W fixtures remain part of the room's lighting ecosystem, giving us significantly more available lighting capability than we had before. After the initial increase pushed the PPFD higher than we wanted, we brought the output down to approximately 59% from the plug. We're still working around: β˜€οΈ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with the intensity naturally changing depending on plant height and position. And our little Blueberry Muffin? She's still making use of those photons. Just... slowly. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š Some plants take those photons and turn them into enormous structures. Some turn them into height. Some turn them into massive branches. Blueberry Muffin Pheno B appears to have decided: "I'll take my time and build my little flowers." And that's exactly what we're watching. ──────────────────────── β˜€οΈ Same Photons. Different Interpretation. This is one of the things I never get tired of seeing in the 8Γ—8 Adventure. Same room. Same lights. Same general environment. Same nutrition. Same irrigation. And yet... completely different results. The plants are essentially interpreting the same opportunity through their own genetic expression. Blueberry Muffin Pheno B is giving us one of the more compact and slower expressions. And honestly? That's valuable information. Because if we had only one plant, we might look at her and think: "This is Blueberry Muffin." But because we're following individual phenotypes, we can see: "This is what THIS phenotype does." And that's much more interesting. ──────────────────────── πŸ₯₯ A Small Nutritional Adjustment For The Whole Room We also made a small adjustment to the base nutrition this week. Across the entire room, Terra Bloom has been reduced slightly from: 🌸 2.3 ml/L to: 🌸 2.0 ml/L This brought the solution strength down slightly as well. Current EC: ⚑ ~2.05 mS/cm The rest of the current recipe remains: 🌱 Plagron Pure Zym β€” 1 ml/L 🌿 Plagron Power Buds β€” 1 ml/L 🍯 Plagron Sugar Royal β€” 1 ml/L βš—οΈ Plagron pH Plus β€” 0.03 ml/L πŸ‹ Plagron Lemon Kick β€” 0.03 ml/L 🌸 Plagron Terra Bloom β€” 2.0 ml/L This is a small adjustment across the room rather than a plant-specific change. And again... we're not trying to force the plants into a particular schedule. We're simply adjusting the overall program as the room progresses. Blueberry Muffin gets the same opportunity as everyone else. Then she decides what to do with it. ──────────────────────── πŸ’§ Irrigation β€” Still Consistent Current irrigation is around: πŸ’§ 1.4 L per plant / 24 hours And just like everything else in this room, we're watching the plants rather than trying to make them all behave identically. Blueberry Muffin Pheno B isn't consuming the room at the same pace as some of the larger girls. She's small. She's compact. She's developing slowly. And that's reflected in her overall behaviour. So we continue observing. Keep things consistent. And let her tell us if she wants something different. ──────────────────────── 🌑️ Week 12 β€” Current Conditions This week's recorded conditions are: 🌸 Flowering: Week 12 πŸ“ Height: approximately 75 cm πŸ’‘ Light schedule: 12/12 β˜€οΈ Upper-canopy PPFD: ~1,500 πŸ’‘ Future of Grow Black Series LEDs: upgraded setup πŸ”Œ Approx. lighting output: ~59% from the plug 🌑️ Day temperature: ~27Β°C πŸŒ™ Night temperature: ~25Β°C πŸ’§ Relative humidity: 60% βš—οΈ pH: 6.04 ⚑ EC: 2.05 mS/cm 🌑️ Solution temperature: 25.2Β°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26Β°C 🌬️ COβ‚‚: 693 ppm 🌱 Pot size: 15 L πŸ’¦ Irrigation: ~1.4 L per plant / 24h The room continues moving forward with the same overall environmental strategy. And our little Blueberry Muffin continues moving at... well... Blueberry Muffin speed. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š ──────────────────────── 🌿 Compact As They Come I keep coming back to this because it's genuinely one of the most interesting characteristics of this phenotype. She's tiny. She's compact. And honestly? She couldn't be much smaller without becoming a bonsai. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š But within that small structure, she's building a beautiful flowering plant. That's what makes her fascinating. The size is obvious. The development is less obvious if you only look at her from a distance. But spend some time looking closely... and there's a lot happening. The flowers are developing. The structure is becoming more defined. The pistils are progressing. And she's slowly becoming more complete. She's simply doing it at her own pace. ──────────────────────── πŸ“Έ This Is Why I Love Individual Phenotype Diaries Blueberry Muffin Pheno B is another perfect example of why I wanted to document the plants individually. If I only showed the entire room, she'd disappear among the bigger plants. But when you isolate her... you see the personality. You see the compact architecture. You see the flower formation. You see the development. You see the white pistils. You see the differences. And those differences are the experiment. We're not trying to make her behave like her sister. We're not trying to make her behave like the larger girls. We're simply documenting what she does. And she's doing something very clearly. She's taking her sweet time. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š ──────────────────────── βœ‚οΈ Still No Need To Interfere And once again... there's really no reason for me to go in there and start doing things just because I have scissors. πŸ˜‚βœ‚οΈ The structure is already established. The plant is compact. The flowers are developing. The foliage is doing its job. She's not asking for anything. So I'm not going to manufacture work. This stage is about observation. Not constant manipulation. We're providing the environment. We're monitoring. We're responding if necessary. And otherwise... we let her grow. ──────────────────────── 🧠 The Plant Gets The Final Vote This principle becomes even more important with a phenotype like this. If I looked only at the calendar, I could easily think: "Week 12. Surely she should be further along." But the calendar doesn't grow the plant. The plant grows the plant. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š And Blueberry Muffin Pheno B is telling us: "Not yet." She's still producing fresh white hairs. She's still developing. She's still building. She's still green. She's still beautiful. So... not yet. And that's okay. We don't need to force the story to fit a calendar. We let the plant write it. ──────────────────────── πŸ”¬ Slow Development Is Still Development I think this is worth saying because sometimes growers can get caught up in comparing plants. You look across the room and see another girl that is clearly further along. Then another. Then another. And suddenly you're wondering why your little plant isn't doing the same. But that's exactly why we're running this experiment. They're not supposed to be identical. Blueberry Muffin Pheno B is showing us a slower flowering progression. And that's fascinating. Because the question isn't: "Why isn't she like them?" The question is: "What will she become if we let her continue?" That's what I want to discover. And honestly... I'm very curious. ──────────────────────── πŸ’š One Of The Cutest Girls In The Room I'm just going to say it. She's adorable. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š There's something about this tiny little plant sitting there among all these larger flowering girls that makes me smile. She's not trying to compete. She's not demanding attention. She doesn't need to. She's just quietly doing her thing. And when you get close enough to see the flowers... you realize she's actually quite beautiful. Compact little structure. Beautiful flowering formation. Lots of fresh pistils. Increasing detail. And a whole lot of personality. She's the little girl of the room. And I absolutely love her. ──────────────────────── πŸ”­ Looking Ahead So what happens next? Honestly... we watch. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š I don't think she's anywhere near ready to finish yet. At least visually, she still looks like she has plenty of development ahead. The amount of white pistils she's carrying compared with many of the other plants tells us that her flowers are still progressing. And that's exactly what I'm interested in seeing. How much more will those flowers develop? How much more density will she build? How will the resin continue to evolve? When will the plant finally start showing us those stronger signs of maturity? I don't know. And I'm perfectly happy not knowing. Because that's the fun. Let's let her surprise us. ──────────────────────── ✨ Final Thoughts β€” Let The Little Girl Shine Week 12. And Blueberry Muffin Pheno B is still doing exactly what Blueberry Muffin Pheno B does. She's small. She's compact. She's beautiful. She's slow. Very slow. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š But she's growing. And that's what matters. The flower formation is beautiful. The plant is healthy-looking. The structure is compact. The development is continuing. And there are still plenty of white hairs telling us that this girl isn't finished writing her story. She's moving at her own speed. And while that speed may sometimes make me laugh... "Come on, girl!" πŸ˜‚ I wouldn't change her. Because the whole point of this adventure is to discover these differences. This is her. This is what she's showing us. And I'm genuinely curious to see where that takes her. So we're not going to rush her. We're not going to force her. We're not going to compare her unfairly with the faster girls. We're simply going to give her what she needs... and let her keep doing her thing. Water. Nutrition. Light. Environment. Time. And a little bit of love. πŸ’šπŸŒΈ That's all she needs from us right now. And she can take care of the rest. So let's give this little beauty the spotlight. Let's appreciate the compactness. Let's appreciate the flowers. Let's appreciate all those beautiful white hairs. Let's appreciate the fact that she's still moving forward. Slow as fuck... but forward. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š And honestly? That's good enough for me. Keep growing, little girl. Keep taking your time. Keep building those flowers. And eventually... show us what you've been working on all this time. πŸ’šπŸŒΈβœ¨ ──────────────────────── πŸ™ Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for the Blueberry Muffin genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover these different individual phenotypes. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of this adventure and for giving us the tools to adjust the program as the room progresses. A massive thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting and for supplying the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures that we're testing in this 8Γ—8 Adventure. πŸ’‘πŸ™ Thank you to Lumiflora for adding another lighting dimension deeper into the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us maintain the environment behind the scenes. And, of course... thank you to everyone following along on GrowDiaries. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every photograph. Every week spent watching these girls develop. It all becomes part of the story. And Blueberry Muffin Pheno B has certainly given us one of the more charming stories in this room. She's tiny. She's compact. She's slow. She's beautiful. She's still full of white pistils. And she's still moving. So we're going to keep watching. Keep documenting. Keep learning. And let this little girl write her story in her own time. Because sometimes... the slowest plant is the one that teaches you the most about patience. πŸ’šπŸŒΈβœ¨ Keep shining, Blueberry Muffin. We're still watching. Growers Love & Happy Growing! πŸŒ±πŸ’š

Soaked in a glass of water for 16 hours before moving on to the paper towel for a couple of days until the roots were to my liking and than I planted them in peat pellets.

Hey Leute, kurzes Update von meinem DWC-Run. Wir sind jetzt voll in der vierten Woche und die MΓ€dels fangen richtig an zu performen. Der Stretch legt sich langsam, und die BlΓΌtenstΓ€nde schwellen ΓΌberall an – die Vorfreude steigt! NΓ€hrstofftechnisch fahre ich das Hesi-Programm (HydroblΓΌte, Boost, SuperVit). Da wir jetzt in die entscheidende Phase gehen, habe ich mich getraut, noch eine fast schon homΓΆopathische Dosis von 5 ml Hesi PK 13/14 hinzuzufΓΌgen. Mit einem EC von 1,80 sind wir zwar am oberen Limit – die Blattspitzen zeigen schon ganz leicht, dass sie "gut im Futter" stehen –, aber bei 19 Grad Wassertemperatur und einem stabilen pH von 6,1 fΓΌhlen sie sich pudelwohl. Kleiner DΓ€mpfer diese Woche: Meine 24-Stunden-Überwachung hat leider den Geist aufgegeben – Sensor kaputt. Das heißt fΓΌr mich erst mal "back to basics" und jeden Tag manuell messen, bis Ersatz da ist. Aber hey, so bleibt man wenigstens nah dran an den Pflanzen! Dank LST und meinen treuen Biege-Clips sieht das BlΓ€tterdach schΓΆn gleichmÀßig aus. Jetzt heißt es Daumen drΓΌcken, dass der PK-Schub die Buds in den nΓ€chsten Tagen ordentlich pusht. Stay tuned! ✌️🌱

Just bought some "predatory mites" to kill bad mites and it's working! I've spread half of a bottle in all my babies soil and the situation changed in like 3 days, not even one bug stayed alive. I've used also the Neem oil to prevent flies to go on their leaves and they are fine now. Starting LST, let's see how they will react. Keep you updated folks! Have a wonderful week!

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 07/12/2019 - Fed her 2l of 6.5PH water with 0,5ml of each Grow, Bloom, Max and Alga-mic, and 1ml of each Heaven and Vera,noticed about 10% run off, also added a green filter to the camera lens. Adjusted the light distance to 55cm again it was toooo close about 32cm. 10/12/2019 - Decided to go back and check the basics, removed led strip to give a proper 'night' time, changing light cycle to 20/4h no more 'exotic' 22/2h, re-checked the light distance every 2 to 3 days to ensure 60-45cm and I can tell all ready she is loving it. Also added home made Co2 made with 1 tsp of yeast, 3/4 tsp of sugar 700ml of warm water in a 1l bottle with a tiny pin hole on the cap. 11/12/2019 - Fed her 1.5l of 6.5PH water with 0,5ml of each Grow, Bloom, Max and Alga-mic, and 1ml of each Heaven and Vera,noticed about 10% run off. 12/12/2019 - 8 weeks have passed and no flowers I guess I'm flipping to 1212h to see if she reacts.

Wk 4 flower is almost done. I’ve made a slight change to the feed schedule this week. I’d been giving around two litres twice per week but it was looking slightly over watered afterwards , so now adjusted to 1.5 L 3 times a week. The plant has reacted well and will hopefully cope with a higher dosage of feed over the next 3 weeks.

This week one of the plants has really began looking tropical and the smell is danker by the day. It wreaks of fruity gas in my tent. Everything is basically on cruise control from here. Two of the plants look ready for a flush while the others are a week or two behind. One of the phenos is a good bit behind and was since day one but looks like it will yield a good bit. 🍻🍻 Mid week: I spotted few amber trichomes and started flushing on two of the 5 girls. One is way behind and two are maybe a week behind. πŸ‘ŒπŸ’¨ Ready for these beauties to finish😍

She grew easy and smells great. Chopped at day 91 after 48 hours of darkness, ended up with 37 grams of dried and cured nuggets. Very interesting bud structure, very dense, first time I saw literal dripping. The smell is sweet, skittles, tropical fruit. The flavor on the smoke hasn't tasted as pronounced, still tasty. The high is good for a sativa, still somewhat motivated. RQS has sold me some great genetics so far, and the cheapest as well.

Here we go into flower. If what they say is true, we're in for a nice color show.
