Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 10 marks the zenith of our incredible journey with the Big Cheese Auto, and it's like witnessing a grand finale in a botanical symphony. A heartfelt salute to Seeds Mafia for the genetics that have led us to this captivating moment. Our green queen is gracefully fading into the final chapters of her life, akin to the changing seasons. The Autopot system, our faithful companion, has been the guardian throughout this journey, ensuring a nutrient dance that sculpted the masterpiece before us. It's like the closing act of a green odyssey. As we approach the grand finale, all additional feedings have come to a serene end. Our Big Cheese Auto is now sipping pure water, a gentle transition as she readies herself for the final curtain call. It's like allowing the plant to gracefully bow out, showcasing the culmination of her life's work. The transformation is mesmerizing! The colors are shifting like the changing leaves of autumn, a poetic reflection of the plant's life cycle. It's like witnessing nature's artwork unfold, with hues of green, purple, and amber blending seamlessly. Each leaf tells a story, a testament to the plant's resilience and the seasons it has weathered. The trichomes are now a sparkling crown, each one a testament to the plant's potency. Their production, color, and shape are in perfect harmony, signaling the imminent harvest. It's like a field of glistening diamonds, a visual ode to the journey we've embarked upon. As a prelude to the final act, all feedings have ceased. Our Big Cheese Auto now drinks pure water, allowing her to express her true essence in these concluding moments. It's like letting her compose the last notes of her botanical symphony. A profound thank you to Seeds Mafia for entrusting us with genetics that have flourished into this spectacular finale.

Ztrawberriez auto is growing great in the perlite. My dropping her last week didn't seem to phase her. She has been powering through with no issue. She is looking good. Thank you Fast Buds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g If anyone needs to purchase fastbuds here is a link for my affiliate program https://myfastbuds.com/?a_aid=60910eaff2419

After 65 days of flowering, the Mimosa was removed and dried. I was quite satisfied with this plant. it was easy to grow and didn't need much maintenance.. the smell is exactly like mandarin as described by Barneys Farm. buds are quite heavy, very hard and compact. The harvest was weighed after hanging the plant in the tent for seven days. (54.9g) trimmed weight, Now it's drying in glass jars ✌️🏻😎

The buds are fating up. I removed some leaves which blocked the light for the lower buds. Hope she will be ready soon because I am afraid of mold developing.

Final week of flower she's only been given plane water she will be cut down in a few days the dark colour on the leafs are really showing

5/25 this plant is starting to gain some vigor finally. Has some real nice healthy color and I'm happy with where she is and/or where she will go once flowering commences. I was worried that she wasn't going to grow into much of anything. This seedling has been fighting since day 5/26 top dressed. She's taking off Also her very main top, keeps branching off weird, it's like 3 at a node almost. Its been having weird mutations like parts of leaves missing and odd shaping of

Hello. I've harvested the Mega Mouth. WOW!!! I'm very impressed with this strain. Over 1.5 k for 5 plants. and it was finished by Aug 20 with the tents help. I'm trying some new (for me) categories to add to my report. Plant Stretch (PS) 1 to 5- 1 is hardly any stretch. Bud Mutation (BM) 1 to 5- 1 is a beautiful normal bud- 5 is big weird growths like foxtails. Trim- How easy or hard it was to trim up 1- you blow on the branch and hang it up. 5- Is very hard to trim takes a long time. About- Best guess on the THC % (I've been smoking a long time) Resin- 1 is super slippery 5- is very sticky like Gorilla Glue. Size of Buds (SOB) 1- is very small 5- is the biggest buds Dense- 1- is the lightest or fluffiest 5- is the rock hard buds your bud buster has trouble busting up. Plant #1 Wet Trim 1647 g PS. 3.5 BM 3.5 Trim 4 About 21% Resin 4 SoB 4 Dense 4 Finished Dry Weight 289.5 g or 10.33 oz. Plant #2 Wet trim 1606 g PS 3,5 BM 3.9 Trim 4 About 22% Resin 3 SoB 4.7 Dense 4.3 Finished Dry Weight- 302 g or 10.78 oz. Plant #3 Wet Trim 1635 g PS 3.7 BM 3 Trim 2.8 About 20% Resin 2.8 SoB 3.7 Dense 4.5 Finished Dry Weight- 314 g or 11.21 oz. Plant #4 Wet Trim 1753 g PS 2.5 BM 2.5 Trim 3 About 22% Resin 4 Falls off easily- Clumpy Dense 2.5 Final Dry Weight- 343.5 g or 12.26 oz. Plant #5- Wet Trim 1787 g PS 3.5 BM 3.7 Trim 3 About 24% Resin 2.5 Dense 2.5 Finished Dry Weight- 355.5 g or 12.69 oz. The taste is sweet and smooth to go down with a nice balanced buzz. There was some pests around. I found thrips damage in veg and got some Spinosad to take care of that. Saw some fungus gnats around but they didn't do much damage. Easy to grow and trim. This is a recommended strain. Chuck.

She is much prettier than she was a week ago :) I remembered that I have my first grow light, which is more compact and it will give me more space, so I changed my light, now the girl's side branches get light too:) I add a lot of video memes, because I really want to win Iphone16 pro ;) and those who don't take risks don't drink champagne:) good luck to everyone.

Transplanted and topped on the 30th this is week since I don’t think it took to the new home completely but it looks okay still I think another week and we should be good had to get a new humidifier old one broke so I got the T3 from acinfinity works great I’m dialed in pretty good 01/06/25 1/9/25 Decided to give that thang a cut and pinned it down first time trying this so hopefully I get a good result also used the new dynomyco wettable powder added 1ml per gallon and also fish shit and growers recharge ph all that in reverse osmosis water to 6.7 did a good watering on 1/10/25

Topped to 4th node. Started brewing ~5l of neem/kelp/aloe Trying out LST clips for the first time. Added a couple of small LST clips on the 4 largest fan leaves. One of the large lower fan leaves snapped off this morning when I was adjusting the LST clips. It looked like it had already snapped yesterday. Adjusted VPD to lower humidity

First week of flowering. The plant will stretch, so i adjusted the LED dimmer to 100%. Did a good defoliation too. Doing good, very healthy. Smell very good.

Veg59, tercer día de pre floración. Hoy se regó por primera vez con Bud Ignitor para estimular la floración, el riego fue de 6.2 pH y EC 2.0, drenaje de 6.2 pH y EC entre 2.1~2.5. Se espera que pasen unas 3 semanas hasta que aparezcan signos de floración, ojalá ocurra mucho antes.

Sensi seeds Jack Herer 10 weeks of veg completed 11th Feb 2020 Hopefully this will be the last week of vegetation and this girl starts to flower because I have ran out of room to train her . I managed to get her to cover the entire circumfrence of the pot and then some, using a combination of LST and HST . I also did the last topping about 10 days ago and won't be doing any more. The soil must still be very fertile as the plant itself looks really healthy and lush. Only water was given as I still haven't got around to extracting some worm castings from the worm farm. But it'll happen and when it does this girl will get half a kilos worth which I am sure she will appreciate. Also apart from the odd bite mark on a leaf the plant has remained pretty much insect free as far as pest insects are concerned. I put this down to the Companion Coriander plant that has been coexisting beside my Jack herer girl right from the start . Apparently most bugs dislike coriander and will purposely avoid it which is a win win for both plants. Thankyou for reading this weeks update and I will return next week hopefully with reports of Flowering beginning. 👍

4 Weeks into Flowering Wow, ...look how bushy it’s gotten compared to last week.? I think this guava is a real high-speed performer.🚀 The flowers are developing really fast and are already starting to give off a subtle scent. If its neighbor, the “Gelato,” didn’t stink like hell, I might even be able to guess what it smells like.😅 A really strong week without any fertilizer. The next feeding will be in a few days. 🍅🥦🚿

Hi guys flip day Sunday 6pm 12 hours lights off starts 🤞😀💚 I will be using a autopot system this grow.

💜 Week 7 – Purple CousKush Auto (Pheno B) Quiet Confidence One of the things I love most about growing multiple phenotypes side by side is discovering that every plant has its own way of telling a story. Some demand attention from the very beginning. Others slowly earn it. This Purple CousKush has always belonged to the second group. Since germination she's chosen her own rhythm, never trying to become the tallest plant in the room or the fastest to flower. Instead, she's quietly built herself into an incredibly balanced, healthy and elegant little lady. For anyone joining this 8×8 Adventure for the first time, this entire project is about growing multiple phenotypes side by side under exactly the same conditions. Every plant receives the same environment, nutrition and care, allowing their unique genetics and personalities to tell the story. This Purple CousKush is proving that sometimes the quietest phenotype becomes one of the most rewarding to watch. Week after week she's reminded me that confidence doesn't always need to be loud. Sometimes it simply grows. 🌱 Plant Development Week 7 finds this beautiful phenotype standing at approximately 88 cm, adding another impressive stretch since last week's update while maintaining the same wonderfully symmetrical structure she's displayed from the beginning. Although she still isn't the tallest Purple CousKush in the tent, she's becoming one of those plants that immediately catches your eye for all the right reasons. Every branch has continued developing evenly, creating a beautifully open canopy where light reaches almost every flowering site. The spacing between nodes has proven to be nearly ideal, giving each future cola plenty of room to develop without feeling crowded. The flowers themselves have taken a noticeable step forward this week. Fresh white pistils continue exploding from every bud site, while the individual flowers are beginning to connect into the first recognizable colas. They're still young, but the direction is becoming very clear. One thing that really stands out is her colour. The foliage has shifted into an incredibly rich emerald green that almost glows under the lights. Every leaf looks healthy, every stem feels strong, and the entire plant gives the impression of being perfectly comfortable in her environment. She may not be shouting for attention. But she's certainly earning it. 🌿 Environment & Growing Conditions Another week of stable environmental conditions has allowed this phenotype to continue flowering without interruption. • 12/12 light schedule from seed • Future of Grow Black Series LED delivering approximately 850 PPFD • Lumiflora under-canopy lighting now supporting lower flower development • Mammoth Pro grow tent • Day temperature around 29°C • Night temperature around 25°C • Relative humidity averaging 60% • CO₂ approximately 639 ppm • pH 5.8 • EC 1.95 mS/cm One exciting addition this week has been introducing the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting. While the main Future of Grow Black Series continues driving the canopy from above, the Lumiflora fixtures now provide additional light beneath the canopy, helping lower flowering sites receive energy that would normally be lost in the shadows. As the flowers continue stacking over the coming weeks, this extra light should contribute to more uniform bud development throughout the entire plant instead of concentrating production only at the top. It's another small detail that helps maximize every square centimetre of the grow space. 💧 Feeding Program Growing in a 15 L Plagron Lightmix container and receiving approximately 1.1 litres of solution per irrigation, she continues responding beautifully to the current bloom programme. This week's nutrient solution consisted of: • Terra Bloom – 2 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L The slightly increased EC has been welcomed without hesitation. Leaf colour remains beautifully vibrant, new flower growth is accelerating and the plant continues showing absolutely no signs of nutrient excess or deficiency. Sometimes the best feeding schedule isn't the most complicated one. It's simply the one the plant happily accepts. 🌸 Phenotype Notes This Purple CousKush continues reminding me that beauty isn't measured in height. She's growing with incredible balance. The main stem has become noticeably thicker, every branch is supporting itself confidently, and each flowering site appears to be developing at almost exactly the same pace. There's something incredibly satisfying about watching a plant where nothing seems forced. Everything feels natural. The rich green foliage frames the developing flowers perfectly, while the bright white pistils almost sparkle against the darker leaves. She isn't trying to steal the spotlight. She simply shines in her own quiet way. Sometimes those become the most memorable plants of the entire run. 🔍 Looking Ahead The stretch now appears to be slowing, which means the next phase should become increasingly exciting. Over the coming week I expect the flowers to begin stacking much more aggressively as the plant redirects more of her energy into building density rather than height. The introduction of the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting should also begin showing its benefits as the lower bud sites receive additional usable light, helping create a more consistent canopy from top to bottom. The framework has been built. Now comes the part every grower loves watching. The swelling. The stacking. And slowly, the first hints of the beautiful Purple CousKush she's been promising all along. 💭 Final Thoughts This week made me smile. Not because she's suddenly become the biggest plant in the room. But because she's becoming exactly what she was meant to be. Healthy. Balanced. Elegant. Every photograph tells the same story. Deep green leaves. Strong stems. Beautiful flower formation. And a plant that looks completely at peace with herself. She reminds me that growing isn't always about chasing the biggest harvest or the tallest canopy. Sometimes it's simply about appreciating a plant that's doing everything right. And this beautiful lady... She's doing exactly that. 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure. Every comment, every question and every shared experience make this journey even more rewarding. A special thank you to the amazing companies helping bring this grow to life: 💜 Zamnesia for the incredible Purple CousKush genetics. 💜 Plagron for providing the nutrition that keeps these ladies thriving. 💜 Future of Grow for delivering outstanding lighting from above with the Black Series LED. 💜 Lumiflora for helping illuminate the canopy from below, ensuring every flower has the opportunity to reach its full potential. 💜 TrolMaster for maintaining the stable environment that allows these plants to perform at their very best. And finally, thank you to the entire GrowDiaries community. Whether you're here to learn, share your own journey or simply enjoy watching these phenotypes develop, I truly appreciate every visit, every comment and every conversation. Until next week... Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💚

5/11 I DID NOT WATER. A COUPLE LOOKED DRY BUT STILL HAD HEFT AND I COULD FEEL MOUSTURE IN THE SOIL. I should've taken more pictures. I forgot it's a new week. Oh well. I'll be back over and I'm planning to bring the girls outside for the first time if it warms up a little more. It's windy as fuck but I can put them in the garage with the doors open. As long as that's not the direction of the wind. I raised the L.E.D light and lowered the hps. I also TRIED to FIM a 10th planet and an mk ultra. I may have just topped them. We'll see how it turns out before I do anything to the others. Pink kush grows slow and compact. Very similar to my experience with purple punch. I have two plants that have slightly twisted leaves. Nothing else is wrong with anything. Looking at the stippling on the leaf I think it might just be either low humidity or slight wind burn or a combination of the two. Now that I've looked again I think it might just be the first 5 finger leaf on those pink kush that I mat have mistaken. I'll keep an eye out. I feel better having done some research. I'll put some more pictures up and I'll update what it is that I get done. EDIT: WENT BACK OVER AROUND THREE. EVERUTHING LOOKED GREAT AND THE LEAVES WETE PRAYING ON SOME. I MAY NEED TO WATER SELECT PLANTS TOMORROW. I'LL PLAY IT BY EAR. LOWER THE HPS AND RAISING THE LED WAS A WISE CHOICE I THINK. OH AND THE "TWISTED" LEAF I WAS WORRIED ABOUT IS NOTHING. JUST THE FAN TO CLOSE AND A FOMBINATION OF LOW HUMIDITY AND MINOR HEAT STRESS. ITS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF. I WANTED TO BRING THE GIRLS OUT TODAY. ITS SUNNY AND 60° BUT THE WIND IS WHIPPING! WE'VE GOT GOOD WEATHER COMING UP THOUGH WITH TEMPS IN THE 70'S. I THINK TOMORROW ILL CLEAN/SANITIZE THE CAGE AND WASH/SANITIZE THE GROW BAGS. 5/12 Looking and lifting some of the pots I found some that were pretty much totally dry. I watered the majority of all the plants. If soil was moist I left it alone. If it looked a little dry I gave it a little water. I didn't measure the water but it wasnt even ALL of what I had left from LAST WATERING (which was like a qtr gallon If that). I just don't want to over water. The ones that I went light on last time were the ones that were dry. Plants seem to explode after watering but this wasn't nearly as much. Everything is looking great. It's easy to tell these are all indicas due to the structure and leaf shape. Much different than even the Chem Dog #4 which doesn't LOOK as "indicay" as some of the others. I wanted to bring them outside today but it's only 50 out. I'm not going to make the same mistake as years past and stress the plants. When we get a nice warm day I'll bring them out. Other plants are ready to be topped or fimmed but I haven't done it yet. Also need to clean the cage and wash the bags. 5/13 It's 60° at 9am so I think the girls will be going outside for a little bit. Didn't fully water but I used what was left of the gallon and gave them that. Some are much drier than others. I'll probably give them a full watering tomm. I only gave them a little today because I didn't want them drying out. I FIMMed a Special Kush today. WE'LL see how the hst turns out. EDIT: WENT AND BROUGHT THE GIRLS OUT FOR FOUR HOURS IN INDIRECT SUNLIGHT. THE TENTH PLANETS WERE THE ONLY ONES THAT LOOKED LIKE THEY HAD AN ISSUE. JUST MINOR HEAT OR LIGHT ISSUES WITH A COUPLE FAN LEAVES. EVERYTHING ELSE SEEMED LIKE THEY SHOT UP IN SIZE. THE LARGER CONTAINERS STILL SEEM KINDA MOIST BUT SOME ARE DRY. I NEED TO GET ON A STABLE WATER SCHEDULE. ITS HARD WITH DUFFERENT PLANTS OF VARYING SIZES. STILL HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO DO. 5/14 One plant was super light today and was a little droopy. I WATERED EVERYTHING TODAY USING APPROX A HALF GALLON. I brought them outside for the second day. I left them out for about 3hrs. It's hot today. I'm still floored that chatgtp gave me exact directions for hardening my plants off at my exact location taking the weather into consideration! That is awesome. They're all doing good. Pink kush is the slow starter this year. Kind of like purple punch was. The only plants that had ANY damage on them was the two 10th planet's and its not really damage. It's just a LITTLE mottling on the leaf and the serrations pointing down. It's weird because this strain did great here last time. The Special Kush #1 and the Pink Kush would probably be fine to leave out soon. Hindu Kush parents make those strains extremely resilient. The one chem dog #4 looks out of place with all tjis big fat indica leaves. I'm hoping the topping and fim-ing will take. It looks like it will. 5/15 Everything is looking great! I have some work to do bit then I'll be over to bring the girls out for a few hours. I'll edit this when I do. EDIT: BROUGHT THE GIRLS OUT FOR THREE HOURS TODAY. I THOUGHT THE TENP WENT DOWN TO 73 BUT TUAT WAS INDOORS. OH WELL. THEY STILL DID GREAT! THEY WERE ALL LOOKING OUT OF THE LEAN-TO LIKE SUNFLOWERS! THE STRAIGHTEN OUT AFTER BEING UNDER THE GROW LIGHTS. I'M PLANNING TO CONTINUE TO HARDEN THROUGHOUT THE WEEK. STILL NEED TO CLEAN BAGS AND GROW AREA. I HAVE 'A' CAMERA DOWN. TRIED TO FIX IT TODAY BUT I WOULD GET RO THE LAST PART BUT THE CAMERA WOULDNT READ THE QR CODE ON MY PHONE. I EMAILED THE COMPANY BUT IF I DONT HEAR BACK BY TOMORROW AND I CANT FIX IT ILL JUST BUY ANOTHER CAMERA TO ADD TO THE SYSTEM. ITS THE OLDEST CAMERA I HAVE AND ITS DONE ME 5 GOOD YEARS. MAYBE ITS TIME TO RETIRE IT. 5/16 I watered a few of the girls this morning with a small ring around the pot. I brought them outside and am leaving them for 3.5 hours today in the lean-to. They get indirect light without all the wind this way. I'll slowly increase the hours outside until there is enough daylight for them to go outside without revegging. When I put them out I noticed that a few were light and since it was close to 80° I watered most everything. I used under a half gallon. I'll see how they do from here and then move forward. I fixed my down security camera and secured my cage. Now I just need to finish hardening off, clean/sanitize bags/environment and put them in tjeir final homes. I'm not rushing it though. I've learned my lesson with that. 5/17 Plants did great yesterday and were perky and praying this morning. It was HOT yesterday too. Got into the low 80's. It's 57° degrees at 9am and it's overcast and sprinkling. I haven't decided if I'm going to bring the girls out today. It might be a good day to try some direct sunlight. I'll update whatever I decide to do.
