d14 Se las ve más pobladas, parece que no les ha causado mucho estrés por lo que han continuado creciendo y lo que yo quería, ahora las ramas laterales, reciben mejor la luz y están creciendo bien. Tienen buena estructura la mayoría, son bastante simétricas. Semillas a granel y ya veis la calidad que tienen, no son super estables porque no se parecen tanto entre ellas, pero no son malos ejemplares, en cuanto a estructura. Tenemos las plantas del fondo, la zona donde está dando el ventilador, y me he dado cuenta que esas plantas tienen algunas hojas medio amarillas y blanditas, parece ser que se han creado alguna bolsa de humedad, necesitaré un ventilador más para que no pasen estas cosas. También he mirado un poco algunas plantas y tienen lo que viene a ser la primera rama satélite, pues es muy fina y no ha crecido en altura para poder recibir luz, por lo tanto se cortarán estas ramas.ç PD: Si se ve una semilla germinada en una maceta, es una 1024 que se quedo en la tierra y parece que le cuesta mucho, pero que nunca se rinde. d15 Algunas tienen un callo bastante gordo en la unión de las ramas satélite. Se han cortado las ramas de abajo del todo, primeras satélite de algunas plantas ya que no les da la luz y no nos van a hacer falta.

🌿 Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 12 🦄 The Little Unicorn Is Rolling Toward the Next Chapter Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌿💚 Well... Our little unicorn keeps doing exactly what she has been doing. Growing. Moving. Stacking. Building. And apparently... doing it faster than some of the girls around her. 😂🦄🔥 Frosted Guava Pheno A continues to be one of those plants that makes me stop for a second every time I walk past her. She's beautiful. She's developing beautifully. She's getting heavier. She's continuing to build those amazing flower structures. And at this point... I'm not really doing much. Actually... I'm doing almost nothing. 😂 The big work has already been done. The structure is there. The flowers are there. The plant knows what she's doing. So now? We're basically watching the show. 🍿🌿🦄 And honestly... what a show she's putting on. ──────────────────────── 🦄 WEEK 12 – THE LITTLE UNICORN KEEPS MOVING ──────────────────────── Frosted Guava Pheno A is still moving fast. That's probably the first thing I notice this week. She's not sitting around waiting for anybody. She's continuing to develop. Continuing to stack. Continuing to build. And continuing to become more and more substantial. She's got that beautiful combination of structure and flower development that makes her so interesting to follow. Every week... something seems a little more developed. A little fuller. A little heavier. A little more defined. And that's what we're watching now. Not whether she can flower. Not whether she can build. We already know she can. We're watching how far she decides to take it. 😂🦄🌸 ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FLOWERS ARE DOING THE TALKING NOW ──────────────────────── At this stage of the run, the flowers are really starting to tell the story. The plant has done most of the structural work. The framework is established. The branches are established. The flowering sites are established. And now the flowers are becoming the main characters. 🌸🌸🌸 They're building. They're stacking. They're gaining presence. They're becoming more substantial throughout the plant. And that's what I love about this stage. You can look at the plant and see the work that has already been done. Now we're simply watching the results develop. It's almost like watching a painting dry... except this painting keeps getting more beautiful every week. 😂🦄🎨 ──────────────────────── ⚖️ SHE'S GETTING HEAVIER ──────────────────────── This girl is not just flowering... she's carrying some serious flower. 😂🌿 The structures are becoming increasingly substantial, and you can see that she's putting more and more of herself into those flowers. She's becoming a heavier plant. And that's another reason I'm not interested in constantly interfering with her. She's doing beautifully. She's growing. She's developing. She's carrying her flowers. She's showing us what this phenotype wants to become. So... why mess with it? At this point, my job is mostly to make sure she gets what she asks for... and then get out of her way. 😂 She's got this. ──────────────────────── 👀 THE GROWER IS JUST WATCHING THE SHOW ──────────────────────── This is probably the funniest part of this stage of the grow. I've spent so much time throughout this adventure doing things. Training. Tucking. Adjusting. Moving. Checking. Photographing. Watching. Changing. And now... the plants are basically saying: "Thanks for all that. We'll take it from here." 😂🌿 And honestly? I'm perfectly happy with that. The work has been done. Now we watch the show roll out. The plant is growing. The flowers are developing. The genetics are expressing themselves. And all I need to do is remain present enough to respond when she asks for something. That's it. Provide. Observe. Assist. And enjoy. ──────────────────────── 🦄 THE UNICORN STILL HAS HER PERSONALITY ──────────────────────── I really like how recognizable this phenotype has become. When we first started this journey, we didn't know exactly what Frosted Guava Pheno A was going to show us. Now? I think we're getting a pretty clear picture. She's fast. She's beautiful. She's heavy. She's structurally interesting. She's building some beautiful flowers. And she's doing things in her own way. She's definitely earned the little unicorn nickname. 😂🦄 And the more she develops... the more appropriate it becomes. There's something about her flower formation that keeps catching my eye. She's not just another flowering plant in the room. She's Frosted Guava. And she's becoming a very interesting example of what this genetic expression can look like in our environment. ──────────────────────── 💚 SAME ROOM. SAME WORLD. DIFFERENT EXPRESSION. ──────────────────────── And once again... we come back to the heart of the 8×8 Adventure. Twelve different plants. One shared room. One general environmental strategy. One lighting ecosystem. One nutritional philosophy. One 12/12 schedule. And then... twelve completely different stories. That's the magic. The room doesn't tell them exactly how to grow. It gives them the opportunity. The genetics decide what happens next. And Frosted Guava Pheno A has clearly decided that she's going to make the most of that opportunity. She's growing fast. She's stacking. She's becoming heavy. She's developing. And she's doing it beautifully. 🌿🦄💚 ──────────────────────── 💡 THE PHOTONS ARE STILL FLYING ──────────────────────── The lighting setup remains part of the same upgraded environment we've been running throughout the room. Those additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures are still helping expand our lighting capability. We're not simply throwing maximum power at the plants. We're controlling the output and providing the room with the photons it needs. Approximately: 💡 ~59% power from the plug with around: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with natural variation depending on plant height and position. And Frosted Guava is clearly making use of that artificial sun. 😂☀️🦄 She's taking those photons... and turning them into flowers. Lots of flowers. That's the beauty of it. We provide the sun. She decides what to do with it. ──────────────────────── ☀️ MORE LIGHT DOESN'T MEAN MORE WORK ──────────────────────── One thing I really like about the lighting upgrade is that it doesn't mean we have to constantly change what we're doing. The capability is there. The control is there. And now we simply watch how the plants respond. Frosted Guava doesn't need us standing beside her saying: "Come on, girl!" 😂 She's already moving. She's already doing it. She's already developing. So... let her. ──────────────────────── ⚗️ THE NUTRITION IS STARTING TO COME DOWN ──────────────────────── And now we're entering another little transition in the room. The nutritional program is beginning to decrease. Nothing dramatic. Nothing unusual. Just the normal progression of the run. We've been feeding the plants through their development, and now we're starting to bring that nutrition down as part of the next stage of the journey. For me, this is another sign that the grow is slowly moving from: "Build." toward: "Finish." We're not there yet. But we're getting closer to that part of the story where the grower becomes less concerned with building new structure... and more interested in watching the plants complete what they've already built. And Frosted Guava has certainly built something worth watching. 🌸🦄 ──────────────────────── 🌿 THE BIG WORK IS DONE ──────────────────────── This is probably the biggest message I want to leave in this week's report. The work is done. At least... the big work. 😂 We've established the plants. We've created the structure. We've managed the room. We've made our adjustments. We've provided the lighting. We've provided the nutrition. We've watched the plants develop. Now? We're mostly observing. Because you reach a point in every grow where trying to constantly "do something" can become more of a distraction than a benefit. The plant has a job. The plant is doing it. Our job is to make sure she has what she needs... and not get in the way. And Frosted Guava? She's doing her job beautifully. ──────────────────────── 👑 GIVE HER WHAT SHE ASKS FOR ──────────────────────── So that's basically where I am with this girl now. I'm not trying to tell her what to do. I'm listening. 😂 If she asks for support... we support. If she needs something... we respond. If something needs adjusting... we adjust. Otherwise? I leave her alone. Because she's showing me that she knows what she's doing. She's growing. She's stacking. She's getting heavier. She's developing. And she's doing it without needing me to constantly interfere. That's a pretty good relationship between grower and plant. 🌿💚 ──────────────────────── 🌸 WATCHING THE SHOW ROLL OUT ──────────────────────── There is something incredibly satisfying about this part of a grow. You reach the point where the major decisions have already been made. And suddenly... you get to sit back and watch. The flowers develop. The plant matures. The colours evolve. The resin continues to develop. The structure becomes more pronounced. And eventually... we arrive at harvest. But we're not rushing there. We're still watching. Still documenting. Still learning. Still enjoying the process. And Frosted Guava is giving us a beautiful show to watch. 🦄🌸🎭 ──────────────────────── ❄️ THE FROSTED PART OF FROSTED GUAVA ──────────────────────── And of course... we can't forget the frost. 😂❄️🦄 The flowers continue to carry that beautiful resinous character that made the name Frosted Guava feel so appropriate. The closer you look... the more detail you find. The trichomes. The pistils. The flower structure. The textures. The little details that make each cola its own little landscape. This is another reason I love having the camera around during this stage. The naked eye sees: "Beautiful plant." The camera says: "Wait... come closer." 😂📸 And then suddenly you're lost in the details. ──────────────────────── 📸 THE CAMERA IS DOCUMENTING THE TRANSITION ──────────────────────── This is also where the weekly photographs become particularly valuable. Because we're now moving through a transition. The flowers are more developed. The plant is heavier. The structure is established. And we're beginning to see the plant move toward the next chapter. One week from now... there will be changes. Another week... more changes. And eventually... we'll look back at these photographs and realize just how much happened in between. That's why I love these diaries. We're not just showing the finished product. We're showing the journey. And Frosted Guava has given us a very interesting journey. ──────────────────────── 😂 THE GROWER'S ROLE HAS CHANGED ──────────────────────── Earlier in the run: "Okay, what do we need to do?" Now: "Okay... what does she need?" 😂 That's a big difference. We're no longer trying to create the plant. The plant already exists. We're no longer trying to establish her structure. It's already there. We're no longer trying to convince her to flower. She's flowering everywhere. Now... we're simply supporting the process. And honestly? I really enjoy this part. Because it gives you time to appreciate what you've created. Or... more accurately... what the plant created. 😂🌿 We just helped build the stage. She put on the performance. ──────────────────────── 🦄 STILL MOVING FAST ──────────────────────── And despite everything becoming more mature... she's still moving. That's what surprises me. She's not slowing down into some quiet little corner. She's continuing to develop. She's continuing to gain presence. She's continuing to stack. She's continuing to become more substantial. And I really like the pace she's chosen. She's got momentum. And we're simply letting that momentum carry her forward. No forcing. No rushing. No unnecessary changes. Just... let her go. 🦄🔥🌸 ──────────────────────── 🔍 WHAT AM I WATCHING NOW? ──────────────────────── At this point, my questions are becoming much simpler. 🌸 How much more will she build? ⚖️ How much more weight will those flowers gain? ❄️ How much more frost will develop? 🎨 How will her colours continue to evolve? 🦄 And how will this little unicorn look when she finally decides she's finished? Those are the interesting questions now. Not: "Can she do it?" She already is. Now we're simply watching how far she takes it. ──────────────────────── 💚 NO NEED TO FORCE THE ENDING ──────────────────────── And that's something I want to keep reminding myself of. We're getting closer. But we're not going to force an ending. The plant will tell us. The flowers will tell us. The development will tell us. Until then... we watch. We maintain. We provide what she asks for. And we enjoy the ride. Because the harvest work will come later. And when it does... we'll have plenty of work waiting for us. 😂✂️ But that's another chapter. For now? We're still growing. ──────────────────────── 🦄 LET THE LITTLE UNICORN SHINE ──────────────────────── So... Week 12. Frosted Guava Auto Pheno A. Still beautiful. Still moving. Still stacking. Still getting heavy. Still developing. Still doing exactly what she wants. 😂🦄💚 The big work is done. The room is established. The structure is established. The flowers are established. The nutrition is beginning its gradual transition. And now... we watch the show roll out. I don't need to constantly touch her. I don't need to constantly change something. I don't need to force her into a particular shape. I just need to be there. Observe. Respond. Support. And appreciate. Because this girl is putting on a beautiful show. 🌸🦄✨ And I absolutely want to see how the next chapter unfolds. ──────────────────────── 🔮 THE NEXT CHAPTER ──────────────────────── We're getting closer to the part of the adventure where the scissors eventually come out. 😂✂️ But not yet. For now... we're still watching the flowers develop. We're still watching the plant mature. We're still watching the colours. We're still watching the resin. We're still watching the little unicorn do whatever the hell she wants. 😂🦄 And honestly? I'm in no hurry. Let's let her finish her story. Then... we'll deal with the harvest. But that's future us's problem. 😂 Right now... present us is just enjoying the show. ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU ──────────────────────── Another week. Another chapter. Another beautiful expression from Frosted Guava. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share the experience with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Frosted Guava genetics and for giving us this beautiful little unicorn to follow. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of the adventure. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to explore this expanded lighting setup. 💡☀️🌿 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 message. Every person stopping by to see what these girls are doing. It genuinely means a lot. 💚 And Frosted Guava? You're still doing exactly what I hoped you would do... which is absolutely nothing like what I expected. 😂🦄 You're moving fast. You're building. You're stacking. You're getting heavy. You're becoming more beautiful every week. And now we're simply watching you take everything you've built toward the next chapter. The big work is done. The grower is mostly standing here with the camera. 😂📸 The plant is doing the work. So... let her shine. Let her stack. Let her keep moving. Let her finish what she started. And when the time comes... we'll pick up the scissors and start the next adventure. But for now? I'm just going to sit back and enjoy the show. 🦄🌸💚🔥 Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! 🌱💚 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle... where the photons keep flying, the flowers keep stacking, the nutrition slowly starts stepping back, and our little unicorn keeps doing exactly what she wants. 😂🦄🌿 The work is done. Now... we watch the magic happen. Let her shine.

This is my first grow in 25 years and it was a pleasure. Now that it's legal to grow 4 plants in Virginia, I did not waste any time getting started. Maintenance was easy. Well water in Autopots with Sohum living soil. All I needed to do was train the plants.

Los geht es mit dem Testgrow der Medic Grow Mini-Sun 2 mit 500W! Auf 100x100cm, in einem gedämmten Growroom, baue ich 2x Sensi Skunk an und versuche den Raum mit diversen Techniken so weit es geht auszufüllen. In dieser Woche habe ich aber erst mal das selbst gebaute DWC System einsatzfertig gemacht und den Sämling eingesetzt. Das DWC System besteht aus einem 30L Eimer, einer Aquaforte Luftpumpe mit 30L Luft pro Minute und 2x Aquaforte Ausströmer mit 20cm Durchmesser. Zum Ende der Vegi Woche 1 hat sich schon so einiges getan, aber schaut euch die Bilder an!

These ladies are doing so great! Stretching up creating flowers along the way! I may need to trim the lower branches in time in order to not waste necessary energy being a solo but I’m feeling when I run Anesia autos in bigger pots in 6 weeks they’ll be no issues!

We are at the beginning of the 9th week of flowering. The trichomes are slowly beginning to change color. I'm now going on vacation for 9 days, I couldn't have planned it any shittier. But anyway, I've decided to keep them growing and then probably harvest them straight after my vacation.

Still not given any food at 35 days since popping. She's growing well and I've put her in a 4ltr pot. I've pinched the top out to slow down the vertical growth.

Plant starts to change colours , trichomes start changing from clear to cloudy . I am checking the development every 3 Days , looking in top , middle and bottom , to get a good avg. result . Overall I want like 5-10% Clear ones , 70-90% cloudy ones and around 5-10% amber ones , this wont be achieved perfectly in every layer , but gives me a little more variety in the effect later on. I do sort them when I put them in jars or curing bags. I flush with around 2-3l with a little top max acti vera and heaven like 1-2ml per l on the first flush with like 10 % runoff , after like 2 Days i went with clear water aiming for very little run off . Also cleaning my pot with a pump sprayer to get salts and used fertilizer out of it . I think the plant has another 1-2 weeks to go .

Bei der WDH lief es diese Woche ziemlich rund. Die Lady wächst schön weiter, baut eine saubere Struktur auf und steht mit kräftig grünen Blättern da. Viel zu tun gab es diesmal nicht. Offenbar hat sie ihre wilden Wachstumstage erstmal hinter sich und gibt sich aktuell mit einem ordentlichen Aufbau zufrieden. Wir freuen uns darüber. Dafür hat sie beim Geruch in den letzten zwei Tagen ordentlich nachgelegt. Heftig, was da inzwischen aus dem Zelt kommt! Die Nase bekommt langsam einiges zu tun und die WDH macht ihrem Namen offenbar alle Ehre. Mal sehen, was da noch auf uns zukommt. Eine ruhige Woche mit gesundem Wachstum und einer Pflanze, die gerade wenig Anlass zum Eingreifen gibt. Fast könnte man sich entspannt zurücklehnen. Aber wir wissen ja, wie schnell sich das ändern kann. 😍

I almost despaired of getting my seeds to germinate after I moved house. Unfortunately, I seem to have stored them incorrectly during the move, so almost all of my auto seeds refused to germinate. But this single Mimosa Cake Auto from Fastbuds did manage it in only 2 days, and I'm very happy to be able to grow three plants at once after all. What a struggle! Because I was given a pretty olla (a clay pot that you bury in the ground), I'm going to try it out this time. Fertiliser cannot be added this way, but it should prevent the soil from drying out. In this grow, I used my usual nutrients from Greenbuzz-Nutrients, which I received as a sponsorship over a year ago. Time to use them up! As a substrate, I used the peat-free Lightmix from T.A. again. It is cheaper than alternatives with peat and better for the environment, so I recommend everyone to give it a try.

YEEEEEEAAAH BOOOOOI, my fabric pot arrived as i expected so i re-potted my baby about 8pm tonight, i used the same CANNA TERRA PRO Soil as before to fill the fabric pot (Soaked it in water then let to drain) and the transplant went smoothly. A video and photo have been uploaded showing it in its forever pot, and i also installed a proper oscillating fan. 14/09 Checked in on the baby this afternoon and looks like shes handled the re-potting just fine which is great news! Everything else is as per usual so will just throw some update photos on. 15/09 Today I checked in on the baby as usual and everything's looking great, she grew a noticeable difference although that's hard to tell in the photos. I gave her a good watering so the humidity came up to 70% for a short time but that's nothing to worry about. Temperature sat around 22 degrees Celsius all day. Photo's show the top and side views for reference. 16/09 Once again the LSD baby grew a nice amount over the day and is looking stout and healthy. The stem is already hardening off and very thick for its short size so i decided to begin to pull her over using LST as i will need to focus on keeping my plant growing low and across due to the space available in my cupboard. Everything went well during the LST so i have put photos up showing what i have done. Temp and humidity is usual. 17/09 Today after work i decided to finally get the mylar roll out and patch the ends of my cupboard as it was pretty rough with tinfoil. I cut out cardboard walls to shape of the existing ends and then lined the edges with carpet tape. I had someone help hold one side and we just placed it down swiftly flat onto the card. This mostly pulled it tight but its not perfect. Other than that, everything's going as per usual and i've uploaded some update photos 18/09 Nothing much to update today, everything's looking good. The weathers been pretty shit so the humidity is up but thats not a worry right now and summer coming up will eliminate that problem. Have updated a couple of photos, basically the plan is to train the plant along the cupboard as low as possible before tipping. This way i can utilize the short spaced cupboard. 19/09 Updated the photos! Everything's looking good, the temperature that is showing is the evening temperature 'which is affected slightly as the cupboard is in a garage. A little low but will only get better as spring comes in. 20/09

Things are really looking up this week! This girls are growing FAST! And my problems are seemingly balancing out. What I did to remedy last weeks issue was let them dry out 3 days, then watered with 6.0 ph dechlorinated water. 2 days after I amended with 4-4-4, 2-8-4, and a bit of mycorhize and have been using 6.0 ph water to bring my soil ph down from almost 7. Today on day 28 I saw first flowering on 2 of the 3 girls 😇 So I have turned my lights up to 100% and pulled them back a few inches so the girls can adjust to the light. I'm stoked with Fastbuds and eager to get to harvest! Thanks for dropping by and God bless.

Auto cous kush is just coming onto it's own, making plant matter and working overtime in that slightly cold medium. I added aloe as a rooting agent, tried to ph it down to 6.5 using lemon juice (not doing that again lol?) and ended up catching the start of pH shenanigans so i started applying an amino acid spray onto the soil (not the plant!) . using my kelp extract concentrate at 1ml a L in my 250ml spray which means a 1/4ml , that gets sprayed once onto the plant. gonna top off the pots next watering. in soil ppm went from 360 to 420 , vpd went from 0.8 to 1.1.
