Nothing new. All fine and Topping went fine Bio Roots 0.5 mll Bio Crop 1 mll SiCaMag BoOoM 0.1 mll added some Soil conditioner with effective microorganisms

A little topping on 3 if the girls. Some low LST on a few. Pinning leaves for maximum light. The 3 I topped are coming along also. Sometimes my head starts playing with me, doubting my efforts. Only light feeding. Super light right now. Nothing on schedule. Just like to adjust according to nature so I dont disturb the peace and make things harder.. i like to go with the flow and not make issues.. only fed once this week and once last week with nutrients.

📆 Semana 11: La Auto Pablo Escobar ha entrado en la fase de lavado de raíces, preparándose para la cosecha. Durante esta etapa, se suspende la fertilización para eliminar restos de nutrientes acumulados en el sustrato, lo que mejora el sabor y la calidad del producto final. Los cogollos mantienen su densidad y la resina sigue brillante, con tricomas que comienzan a tornarse ámbar, señal clara de que la madurez está próxima. El aroma se percibe más limpio, listo para la fase final. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

Ahojte začal som 2 týždeň Flower v kútiku štastia. Počasie 27 ° deň/noc 24 ° vlhkosť 55% . Ľavá Panička lepšie znáša kŕmenie. Práva zase má hrubšie stonky vďaka supercropingu ale musím dávať jemnejšie kŕmenie a je veľmi citlivá čo je už vidieť trocha na špičkách nových lístkov síce jemne ale je to tam. Ingrediencie : H2O 1.7L PH/6 Rhino skin 1ml/L Sezni Bloom som znížil trocha,pridal som Sugar Royal 1ml/L Senzi cal-mag Xtra. Za 3 dni mi vychlastali predchádzajúce kŕmenie, biele vlásky už je vidieť. Zatiaľ sa mi darí držať rovinu.Mal som trocha iný plán vpravo ale ten môj zásah dal rastline veľmi zabrať a tam sa veru nedá už moc roztahovať. 11.deň Flower a Paničky po dvoch dňoch vychlastali ďalšiu zálievku už začínajú riadne slopať a strečing ide v plnom prúde. Mierne žlté špičky na nových listoch zatiaľ sa nešíria ďalej. Samozrejme ak sa to zrýchli a za 2 dni to vychlascú budem musieť zálievku nastaviť na jemné ale pravidelné hnojenie. Je tam ešte aj možnosť 2x Hnojky 1x len voda,3x za 7 dní kŕmenie,všetko záleží ako budú Hnojky znášať paničky alebo máš tam nejakú radu, Sam Hawkens prosím ťa? MAL SOM UŽ aj také kolo, že som to tam lial stále každú zálievku hnojky a rastlina bola ako keby ju plameňomet trafil samozrejme už keď používam EC meter je to lepšia pomoc 😀. 3. týždni Flower chcem jemne ubrať N a pridať viac P a K .Pestovanie gandže je najlepší Program, ktorí nikdy neomrzí sledovať. Ďakujem za šírenie tvojej Gandža osvety. ¡Hasta pronto! Kutil ✌️.

The weather gods seem to be smiling on me—it’s only really cold at night. I remember reading that anything below 12 degrees is critical, and we’ve already had quite a few nights below that. In fact, it’s even dropped as low as 5 degrees. But it’s supposed to get really warm again over the next few days, with temperatures above 25 degrees during the day and around 15 at night, which puts my mind at ease a bit. Otherwise, I’m really happy, and I’ve given the rose one last dose of P/K for the finish. It’s gaining mass every day now, and the sugar content is increasing. What I’d really like to see now—and what I’d been hoping for because of the low nighttime temperatures—is for some color to come into play. But it’ll still have a little while to go, so maybe it’ll turn colorful yet. Unfortunately, my sense of smell is kind of shot from years of hay fever allergies. My parents and my brother say the whole garden smells wonderful, and I can only catch a whiff when I’m standing right next to it. :( Well, in any case, I think its scent—as the name suggests—is very floral and flowery, which I really like. Let’s see where this scent journey takes us next. I’m targeting the first or second week of October as a rough harvest window, but as always, patience will pay off in the end. STOP THE EARLY HARVEST! 😂🌹🍂

Topped them end of last week, still not given them feed as the farmyard manure they were planted straight into seems to be giving them what they need so far, I've given them rain water when they needed it. Hopefully the sun will return this coming week 🌞

💜 Week 6 – Purple CousKush Auto (Pheno B) Growing Without a Hurry One of my favourite lessons from this entire 8×8 Adventure has been learning not to measure success with a ruler. Some plants race toward the finish line, stretching with incredible determination. Others quietly settle into themselves, carefully building strength before revealing what they have planned. This Purple CousKush belongs to the second group. She's never tried to compete with her sisters. She simply grows at her own pace, never rushed, never stressed, never trying to be anything other than herself. And honestly... I wouldn't change a thing. 🌱 Plant Development Week 6 finds this beautiful lady standing at approximately 66 cm, making her one of the more compact Purple CousKush phenotypes in the room. While some of the other ladies have focused on vertical growth, she has invested her energy into creating a wonderfully balanced frame with sturdy branches and beautifully healthy foliage. The flowers are now beginning to establish themselves across every branch. Fresh white pistils continue appearing at every node, and although the buds remain small for now, their formation is wonderfully even throughout the canopy. One feature that keeps drawing my attention is her foliage. The leaves carry a rich, deep emerald-green colour that immediately speaks of excellent health. Even more interesting are the gentle curves at the tips of several leaves, almost as if they're curling a finger and inviting you to come a little closer. Every plant has its own little signature. Those playful leaves have become hers. 🌿 Environment & Growing Conditions This week brought another period of stable environmental conditions, allowing the plant to continue developing without interruption. • 12/12 light schedule from seed • Future of Grow Black Series LED delivering approximately 850 PPFD • Mammoth Pro grow tent • Day temperature around 29°C • Night temperature around 25°C • Relative humidity averaging 60% • CO₂ approximately 639 ppm • pH 6.0 • EC 1.78 mS/cm Despite the warm summer conditions, she continues showing exceptional health. Leaf colour remains vibrant, stems continue strengthening and there isn't a single indication that she's under any environmental stress. Sometimes quiet progress is still outstanding progress. 💧 Feeding Program Growing in a 15 L Plagron Lightmix container and hand-watered with approximately 1.1 litres per irrigation, she continues responding beautifully to the current bloom feeding schedule. This week's nutrient solution consisted of: • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L The balance between nutrition and growth continues to be exactly where I want it. The rich green foliage, healthy new growth and consistent flower development all suggest she's receiving everything she needs without asking for anything more. No corrections. No chasing numbers. Just letting the plant do what she does best. 🌸 Phenotype Notes This phenotype reminds me that every seed carries its own personality. She's certainly not the biggest plant in the room, but she's far from the smallest story. Everything about her feels deliberate. Her internodes remain nicely spaced, the branching is symmetrical, and her compact stature gives the impression of a plant that's quietly preparing for the weeks ahead rather than trying to impress anyone today. Looking closely at the flowering sites, it's clear she's beginning to shift more energy toward bud production. Every branch carries clusters of fresh pistils, hinting at the shape she's slowly becoming. She's teaching patience. And patience has always been one of a grower's greatest tools. 🔍 Looking Ahead Over the coming week I expect the flowering sites to begin stacking more noticeably as the stretch gradually slows. The framework is already there. Now it's simply a matter of allowing time to do its work. With her healthy root system, vibrant foliage and naturally balanced structure, I'm excited to watch these small flower clusters slowly transform into properly formed colas over the next few weeks. She may never become the tallest plant in the room. But she may very well become one of the prettiest. 💭 Final Thoughts Plants like this remind me why comparisons rarely tell the full story. It's easy to admire the tallest plant or the fastest flowering phenotype. But there's something incredibly rewarding about watching a quieter plant confidently follow her own rhythm without ever looking unhealthy or unhappy. This Purple CousKush doesn't seem interested in racing. She's simply enjoying the journey. Healthy. Balanced. Elegant. Confident in her own timing. Sometimes the most beautiful gardens are built by plants that never felt the need to hurry. 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure. Every comment, every question and every shared experience makes this journey even more enjoyable. 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 the outstanding Black Series lighting. 💜 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable environment from start to finish. 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 and every conversation. Until next week... Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💚

Day 74 of flower, all the colas are beginning to topple over due to how dense n chunky they are.the sample nug takin at 9 weeks was excellent super gassy skunky LOUD! Pretty sure im gonna take them within the next few days.

So this is the Tear Down week. The timing of it makes it so i will need to the harvest flag in a few days when I can weight and test the plants. I have included the Cleaning, and Cutting and some Root Porn. I will make the harvest post in about 4-5 days, when I can trim these plants. There is a lot of Plant here. I got way more than I was expecting. I don't have a scale that measure this amount of plant, without taking like 10 measurements and then adding them together. So I will just be posting the dry weight. I will post the wet weight as dry weight * 1.65. Autopots: Wow, what a great product. I have been blown away by how well and how easy it was to work with them. They really did solve the watering issues. Excellent product. If you are a beginner, start with Autopots. -= Lessons Learnt =- - Overdrive the air to your Autopots. In my control plant, I used a small rectangle air stone (instead of a standard air dome). This lead to root rot and some other issues, it also put significantly less air into the water. The root rot, give the material for the Brown Algae to grow. Using a huge Air-disc-Air-Stone would be an excellent combo to mix in with the air dome itself. Something like this: https://www.amazon.ca/Pawfly-Diffuser-Suction-Hydroponics-Aquarium/dp/B01MY3AQ33 at the bottom and the air-dome on top of it, will be what I do with my next experiment. - Air stone in the reservoir. I had two instances where algae grew into the res. An air stone would have helped. It would have also helped my control plant get less root rot. Given the amount that the air-domes and air sources got engulfed, having the water have more o2 in it would have only been beneficial. - Don't grow 6 plants in a 4x4. Since my control plant was about 1/8th the size of the others, I think I could have grown 5 in the shape of a 5 (on a 6 sided dice)⚄ This placement would give a much more spaced canopy for airflow and more importantly light. The sides of some of the plants were lighter green and produced larf due to lack of light penetration. - This tent was on 19-5 schedule. This worked out very well for this strain. After every lights on, they were in the praying position, so this strain was able to recover in that 5hrs off. If I had more seeds, I would run these again, and try 20-4. I think this strain could handle it. All for all, I think I'm going to 19-5 as my default timing. This kept up a solid DLI. - Staring at .9EC (really .7 EC cause my water here is .2 EC) Then bumping up at .1 a week, until 1.6EC worked out VERY well. I experimented on this crop all the way up to 1.9EC, which burnt the tips of this plant. I think if I did this strain again, I would do 1.6EC until 3-4 weeks left then crank it to 1.9. It did plump them up when I went to 1.9, however it left them looking rough. Bulk was added though. - Sticking to 6.0PH for all of veg, and 2 weeks into flower worked great. The plant had solid and consistent color and leaf shape . The plant's did get hurt, due to some issues (as noted on the weeks). I switched to 6.5 PH in the last 3-4 weeks and it helped them recover, and plump up noticeably. -VPD. The #1 thing I focused on was VPD. I keep it .9kpa range, as best as humanly possible. It was honestly, HUGELY noticeable compared to my other grows. I know truly understand the value of properly dialed in VPD. This is the one lesson that will stick with me forever. - Super-cropping: On the plants I give the chiropractic treatment too, had much thicker stems as much larger channel internally. I did this treatment to 4 of the 6, and the 4 that had it done has larger buds and recovered from defoliation faster. TLDR; VPD is king. Super-cropping is worth the time. Keeping PH and EC dialed in were all wins. Autopots kick ass.

Estamos en la tercera semana de crecimiento vegetativo. Nuestras plantas ya tienen unos 15 centímetros aproximadamente, y han superado la fase crítica. Recordamos que hasta ahora solo estamos regando con agua, aún no hemos incorporado los fertilizantes. Seguimos manteniendo la humedad relativa bastante alta, y la temperatura entre 22 y 24ºC. Pero aumentamos la potencia al 50% de ambas luminarias.

Day 18: They are all looking good. I did a full strength feed at 350 ppm. They got moved into the 4x4 under the sf4000 at 50%. They are between 4 & 5 nodes. I’m going to have to come up with a plan depending on plant structure. I cleared out the other 4x4 with 2 vivosun 600s as overflow if need be. Theres a short squat one and tall slender one and everything in between. Im having trouble dialing in the temps but they’re looking happy so…… Just letting them grow, may do minor training or maybe major haha idk. Happy Growing 🌱 Day 22: moved them to the flower tent, topped, SF4000 at 50% approx 40” above canopy.

And this is how we successfully open week 9 - After fermenting a dose of PK compost tea at the end of last week, I poured it extensively. As always, he did them very well. They also need significantly more water again. I have now also increased the humidity a bit, because there is currently drier indoor air in the room of the cultivation area. Let's see how long I leave my Sweet Seeds ladies. I'll decide that at short notice. Sour Jealousy will then be able to enjoy all the space to bloom at her disposal. Both Sweet Seeds now only get purified and aerated water and only enriched with enzymes. It is now time to signal to both to use up their reserves. After all, their genetically pre-programmed life cycle is significantly shorter than that of sativa-dominant strains - for example, Sour Jealousy from Fast Buds. She is only now really starting to flower, while the indica dominant strains are moving towards the glorious end. I have also already been able to positively determine how practical and thought through to the end 2 Sanlight panels really make sense. I am not primarily concerned with more power through the lighting, but also and above all, I am concerned with the homogeneous illumination at 11 degrees inclined positioning of the solar panels. And to have the opportunity to meet the different growing conditions individually by adjusting the heights of both panels. Of course, I will be able to strive for much higher performance in the large Homebox Ambient with CO 2 and both lamps, but area coverage is the be-all and end-all for me. Lamps currently operate at 60% each. That's definitely enough. Because 2 x EVO 4 - 80 means to me: Precision in the form of light - a tool that you learn to use. Everything before didn't convince and satisfy me nearly as impressively as Sanlight. Also the advantage of being able to operate your lighting system from the outside, via Bluetooth, yes that is really very important, practical and innovative. It makes things so much easier... Sweet Seeds - brand new: „Jealousy Z XL“ I can’t wait to give it a try next run… Super noble presentation, in my opinion. There are many reasons for an emotional attachment to a product. But one stands out in particular: the desire to design, personalize, individualize something or - in other words - the desire to own something unique and feel special as a result. Scientists have found that our buying behavior is shaped by emotions. A person does not buy a product, but an emotional feeling. Many thanks to Sweet Seeds! 🙏 I also feel the feeling that Dark Devil gives me - as a noble high. I associate the turn with a noble, very effective and multifaceted indica dominant weed from Sweet Seeds. Creative work only works in the 1st part of the turn - haha, because then the coma phase begins with subsequent binge eating! But even during sports I was in the vaporizer with Dark Devil and it supported me mightily during training. Maybe it depends on the activity at the time of consumption, haha I find it very fruity in taste and smell. Very sweet terpene spectrum. And not very top-heavy. A wonderful body high. Worries and fears - as if blown away… Some here on growdiaries describe meticulously exactly how they give what, when and how much of it to the plant, etc. I prefer to keep a diary for my passion in a different way. With passion and feeling. I feel my plants. And talk to them. They also listen to chilled music. The Kobe beef in Japan is even massaged to classical music. ;-)) I think such information is only useful for a run to those who do it exactly the same way, under the same conditions with almost the same phenotype. That is almost impossible. And not necessary either. I have to learn to read plants. Their signs are pointing. Become sensitive to it. If I know why and how something happens, then I also know how to keep something like this alive. And what it takes. And why. So let's see what we have to do today. In any case, Lady Jealousy is being driven to the hairdresser today. Yes, we're doing beauty and wellness spa today, haha. She's so busy with branching, I'll give her a helping hand. She has developed incredibly. And has an unusually long breath. Comparative: She looks like a farm animal to me. In other words, what it was bred for. Very strong and healthy adult. Then bloom efficiently and productively. And that's the fascinating thing for me. The breeder creates all parameters here to perfection. Even though I don't particularly like the marketing of Fast Buds anymore, I have to admit without envy: "I've never experienced that before." The phenotypes are absolute warriors, from another planet. Marketing is debatable. No problem. But I can only marvel at these plants and their quality. Unfortunately, too much turnover often spoils the core vision of a successful company. …PK is on the way! Addendum about the one, Lady Dark Devil 😈, which had to be harvested too early: And yet: Dark Devil gives me a deep inner satisfaction in my existence. Nothing upsets me. Nothing can disturb me, because I am one, with myself and my environment. I can only feel gratitude for that. It gives me this broad, generous sense of inner peace. For me, inner peace means balance, equanimity, even-mindedness, harmony, and stability. And that's exactly what a noble special effect means to me. When a weed variety can develop medicinal qualities. When THC simply has a more complex effect on my organism, than just the usual power high. And if, a plant that hasn't even had the opportunity to reach its full potential, can do that, it has passed all the requirements of a cannabis variation, with flying colors. And on top of that, she seems incredibly graceful and elegantly feminine to me. It's just something very special: She's a Sweet Seed! Oh I see, I'm writing a real diary here... 😜 But I love that. I love grow diaries. Look at the brave girl. She forgives me for topping, training, defoliating and in the end: that I have to kill her. But I know then for sure, that she knows, that I really loved her. And the fascinating homogeneity. Totally instructive. It behaves like a photoperiod phenotype, unbelievable but true! on 14.09.2024 I moved her to the grow room with the others. So it's almost 9 weeks. I'm curious to see if she holds out. But I think so. It seems incredibly energetic and relatively relaxed to me. I'm mentally very busy with her right now. Every morning I comb through her leaf picture. Make impressions of the smallest changes. I currently have Pk boosters or tea with her every third day, alternating. And in between only purified water with enzymes. Dark Devil and Big Devil I let slowly starve and then die of thirst. They consumed the last booster 4 days ago. She (Sour Jealousy) currently swallows 2.5 liters per day. That's really a lot. And in the morning she wants to have something again. I think the lamps tickle out their full potential. I meticulously defoliated her and now she stands happily and despite all the exertions, like a star in the sky. My star. 🌟 Sour Jealousy is really crazy, I can say that. And the coolest highlight will be: Lady Jealousy will soon be able to enjoy the whole place in the sun for the "grande finale". The smell of the two Sweet Seeds totally upsets me! I would like to bite into it. Its killing me softly. Very few leaves have a few dark small spots or dots at the tips of the leaves. (Sour Jealousy) Many thanks to BerrySweetHighhat. I think the same. Will probably be calcium. She gets this from the Bio PK Booster. I keep calm and don’t panic, it’s organic. ;-)) Sour Jealousy: Today I cleaned out small shoots again & defoliated them from below up. I think there were still too many young little shoots. Now everything should be distributed quite well. We'll see. Tomorrow I will probably harvest both Sweet Seeds. Hello everybody! Today it's Dark and Big Devil's attack. It's about time. Lady Jealousy will be allowed to use the full 0.64 sqm of cultivation area for herself from today. Take care & bee 🐝 positive 🐝… to bee continued.

Will update with all the in

Oct 9th - entering week 9 of Flower she has a new vantage point. Protected by 8’ corn crops and a rising mass of land, this Strain has just been moved from between a pair of Garages, and out of Sight from a few teenagers once again. - 1 or 2 more weeks are all thats needed. She gets a good big feed today and we’ll see what the weather brings. - big winds may require some bamboo on her long branches for support tba - fed a solid gallon of food, she is going to finish Strong out here on the edge of the field - Wednesday 12th, I’ll clean-up some of those Fan Leaves… and feed her the last big meal w/ Nutrients. Then its only water n sunshine 11th - fed its last nutrients today… water-only from here on in. Nice Tan coloured pistils are mixing-in with the buds - oct 23rd - 25th is the target for this puppy. Day 73 - 75 of growth

Great grow from start to finish, very resilient plant and would of given her some more TLC if I was to grow her again.

(Week 34)Realized that my plants looked a little phos deficient. BioGrow has plenty so i adjusted my ph back down to 5.8 plants looking allot happier. Using baking soda as ph up, very little needed.

Second week of flower has started They really grew after a heavy feeding Had to move my lights way up . LEDs tooo bright ..leaves were slightly curling
