Missed a day of watering but still looking like they are building proper buds first indoor grow I'd say is going good so far should be starting to flush my mid week on the black domina x Scott's og supposed to be a 7-9 week flowering time but not positive on when to start flush with Coco coir. Remo claims 7 days so I guess we shall see how it looks beginning of week 8.

Getting there,glad to see the one pheno seems to be side branching decently.Will just carry on tieing down side branches and main.Weathers been great but definitely getting cooler.Looking foward to their first fully saturated fertigation to runoff during the week if the good weather persists.

These ladies are just starting to show their little white bud hairs in their new top growth. I am happy with their stretching speed so far and at 7 days they are still a good size to work with. I think they should fill the spaces they have perfectly once I am finished their training after defol. The growth in them leaves a lot of options for decent mains. The C Banana is spreading out steadily and her stems are nice and fruit supporting thick. No signs of any deficiency or issue so far and her roots are top notch below decks. Monster Zkittelz is certainly trying to be true to her namesake now and has put on some nice size this week. She is only just showing her pistils so a good stretch is still ongoing with her before she is finished. She is filling out the rear corner very well. be well Growmies

Week 5 on these amazing girls. They're full into the flower stage and the smells are starting to come through super strong. I've switched over to bloom nutes and they seemed to never skip a beat. All in all excited to see what the coming weeks have in store. Happy Growing.

👑 8×8 Adventure – Week 12 Godfather OG – Pheno A The Queen Is Shining Again… And Yes, We Have Photos! 😂👑📸🌸 Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And yes... WE HAVE PHOTOS AGAIN. 😂📸👑 The Queen has officially maintained her photographic privileges. No disappearing act this week. No two-week photographic mystery. No: "Sorry, Your Majesty, we forgot the camera." 😂 She's here. She's photographed. And honestly... she looks beautiful. Godfather OG Pheno A continues to move quickly, continuing her development while slowly showing more and more of those little signs that tell us we're getting deeper into the flowering cycle. The flowers are changing. The white hairs are evolving. The leaves are beginning to show more noticeable colour changes. And this is exactly where I think it's important to slow down and actually explain what we're seeing. Because when leaves start changing colour during flowering, people sometimes immediately think: "Something is wrong." And sometimes something IS wrong. But not every colour change is a problem. Sometimes... it's simply the plant changing. And our Queen is definitely changing. 👑🌿🌸 So let's take a closer look at what's happening with her this week. ──────────────────────── 🌸 WEEK 12 – THE QUEEN KEEPS MOVING ──────────────────────── Godfather OG Pheno A is continuing to do what she has been doing throughout this entire run. Growing. Flowering. Building. Maturing. And doing it quickly. She's not sitting around waiting for permission. 😂👑 She's moving. The flowers are becoming more developed. The pistils are changing. The resin continues to build. And now we're beginning to see more noticeable changes throughout the foliage. She's still beautiful. She's still substantial. She's still one of the personalities of this room. And she's very much claiming her place among these twelve very different plants. The interesting part now is that we're moving beyond simply watching flowers appear. We're watching the plant mature. And maturation comes with changes. ──────────────────────── 📸 YES… THE QUEEN HAS HER PHOTOS AGAIN ──────────────────────── I have to start here because... well... we learned our lesson. 😂📸👑 The Queen gets her photographs. And looking at this week's images, I'm really glad we captured her again. The full-plant photographs show just how much structure she's carrying. The individual flower photographs show the continued development. And when we get closer... that's where the story becomes really interesting. The flowers are changing. The pistils are evolving. The resin is becoming more obvious. And the leaves are beginning to tell us that this plant is progressing further into her cycle. That's why I love documenting the same phenotype week after week. A single photograph can show you what exists. A sequence of photographs shows you what changed. And Godfather OG Pheno A is definitely changing. ──────────────────────── 🌿 THOSE LEAVES ARE STARTING TO CHANGE ──────────────────────── One of the most noticeable differences this week is the colouration appearing on some of the leaves. It's more obvious now than it was last week. And this is where I want to make an important distinction. Leaf colour changing does not automatically mean: "Deficiency!" 😂 Plants aren't that simple. Especially as flowering progresses. As the plant moves deeper into maturity, older leaves can naturally begin to lose some of their green colour. The plant is changing. The distribution of resources within the plant changes. Older foliage can begin to fade. And depending on the individual genetics, that transition can become more or less visible. Godfather OG Pheno A is showing us some of that transition now. But we're not looking at one colour change and immediately declaring a problem. We're looking at the whole plant. That's the important part. ──────────────────────── 🔎 WHAT ARE WE ACTUALLY LOOKING AT? ──────────────────────── When I look at her this week, I don't just look at one yellowing leaf. I look at the entire picture. Are the flowers continuing to develop? Yes. Is the plant still producing healthy new growth where appropriate? Yes. Are the flowers progressing? Absolutely. Is the resin developing? Yes. Are the changes happening primarily on older foliage as the plant matures? That's part of what we're observing. So... there's no reason for me to panic simply because the Queen is starting to show a little more colour. 😂👑🌿 This is where experience becomes important. You don't react to one symptom in isolation. You observe the whole plant. You compare it with previous weeks. You look at where the colour is appearing. You look at how quickly it's progressing. You look at the flowers. You look at the new growth. You look at the environment. And then you decide whether the plant is actually asking for help. Or whether she's simply telling you: "I'm getting older." 😂 And right now... she looks like a plant moving forward through flowering. ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE WHITE HAIRS ARE TELLING THEIR OWN STORY ──────────────────────── Another thing becoming increasingly obvious this week is the evolution of the white pistils. Earlier in flowering, those hairs were extremely fresh. Bright. White. Straight. Reaching outward from the flowers. Now? They're beginning to change. Some remain bright and white. Others are starting to become creamier. Some are beginning to curl. Some are changing colour. And that's completely normal as individual flowers mature. Pistils don't all change simultaneously. A flower isn't a light switch that goes: WHITE → DONE. 😂 It's a gradual process. New pistils can continue appearing while older ones begin changing colour. That's why you'll often see a mixture of fresh white hairs and darker, more mature pistils on the same plant. And that's exactly the kind of transition we're beginning to see with our Queen. ──────────────────────── 🌸 WHITE DOESN'T MEAN "NOT READY" ──────────────────────── This is another point I think is worth mentioning. Seeing lots of white pistils does not automatically mean: "She's nowhere near maturity." And seeing some darker pistils doesn't automatically mean: "She's finished." Pistils are one visual clue. They're part of the story. They're not the entire story. Flower development. Resin development. Overall plant maturity. Genetic expression. And the progression of the flowers themselves all matter. So when we look at Godfather OG Pheno A this week, we're not trying to use the colour of the pistils as a countdown clock. We're simply documenting the change. And she's definitely changing. 🌸➡️🌸➡️🌺 ──────────────────────── 💎 THE RESIN CONTINUES TO BUILD ──────────────────────── And then... there's the part that always gets me. The resin. 😂💎 The closer we get with the camera, the more obvious it becomes. Those flowers are becoming increasingly decorated with trichomes. The surface becomes increasingly frosty. And when you combine that with the changing pistils and the evolving flower structure... you can really see the plant moving deeper into maturity. This is one of those moments where the macro camera becomes almost unfair. From across the tent: "Beautiful flower." From the macro lens: "OH MY GOD, LOOK AT ALL THAT." 😂📸💎 And that's exactly why I love documenting her this way. We're not just photographing the finished product. We're photographing the process. ──────────────────────── 👑 THE QUEEN IS STILL MOVING FAST ──────────────────────── One thing hasn't changed. She's still moving. Fast. She's continuing to develop her flowers at a pace that makes it very easy to notice the difference from week to week. And that's another reason why I'm not particularly concerned by the fact that we're seeing more colour in some of the leaves. The plant isn't sitting there deteriorating. She's progressing. She's developing. She's maturing. There's a huge difference between: "Something is going wrong." and "This plant is moving through a later stage of flowering." Those two things can sometimes look superficially similar if you only look at a single leaf. But when you look at the entire plant... the story becomes much clearer. And the Queen's story right now is: "I'm getting closer." 👑🌸 ──────────────────────── ⚗️ NUTRITION – NOW WE BEGIN TO BACK IT DOWN ──────────────────────── As we're approaching the final part of the flowering cycle, we're also beginning the gradual reduction in nutrition. And this is something I personally prefer to do slowly. I'm not a fan of: "Full nutrition today." "Zero tomorrow." 😂 Especially when working with mineral nutrition. I prefer a progressive reduction. A little less. Observe. Let the plant continue. Adjust again when appropriate. And allow the transition to happen naturally. The plant doesn't suddenly stop functioning because the calendar says we're getting close to the end. She's still alive. Still photosynthesizing. Still developing. Still using water. Still using nutrients. So I prefer to reduce rather than slam the brakes. For this stage of the room, we've started bringing the Terra Bloom down gradually rather than cutting the nutritional programme completely. The current direction is: 🌱 Reduced Terra Bloom ⚗️ Gradually lowering EC 💧 Maintaining consistent irrigation 🌸 Allowing the plant to continue developing 👀 Watching the response The exact reduction is less important to me than the philosophy: Don't panic. Don't suddenly change everything. Transition gradually. Observe the plant. ──────────────────────── 🌿 WHY NOT JUST CUT EVERYTHING? ──────────────────────── Because plants don't operate according to a switch. 😂 There isn't a tiny button inside Godfather OG Pheno A that says: "FLOWERING WEEK 12 — TURN EVERYTHING OFF." If only it were that easy. 😂👑 The plant is transitioning gradually. The flowers are transitioning gradually. The foliage is transitioning gradually. The pistils are transitioning gradually. So our approach can also transition gradually. We're approaching the later part of the cycle, so we're reducing the nutritional input. But we're not pretending that the plant suddenly needs absolutely nothing. We're letting her finish her work. And we're watching. That's the important part. ──────────────────────── 💡 SAME ARTIFICIAL SUN – MORE CONTROL ──────────────────────── The lighting environment remains upgraded with the two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures. And we're still controlling that additional capacity rather than simply running everything at maximum. Approximately: 🔌 59% power from the plug and approximately: ☀️ 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. That's plenty of photons for this room. And because Godfather OG Pheno A is tall and substantial, she gives us another excellent example of why canopy measurements need context. She's not a flat surface. Her flowers are at different heights. Her leaves are positioned differently. Her upper canopy sees more direct light. Deeper areas naturally receive less. And the Lumiflora lighting continues helping us explore that lower/deeper part of the canopy. The plant is three-dimensional. So our lighting environment needs to be thought about in three dimensions too. ──────────────────────── ☀️ PHOTONS, LEAVES AND FLOWERS ──────────────────────── One thing I love about this stage is that you can actually see the plant responding to the invisible part of the equation. We can't see photons. But we can see what the plant does with them. The leaves capture them. The plant converts that energy. The flowers develop. The resin increases. The structure changes. And eventually... we can photograph the result. Godfather OG Pheno A has had weeks and weeks of those photons. And now we're seeing the accumulated result. A large plant. A substantial canopy. Developing flowers. Increasing resin. And now... a little more maturity showing through the foliage. It's all part of the same story. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ THE ROOM REMAINS STEADY ──────────────────────── The general room conditions remain consistent with the current 8×8 setup: • 🌡️ Day temperature: approximately 26.5–27°C • 🌙 Night temperature: approximately 25–26°C • 💧 RH: around 60–61% • 🥥 Substrate temperature: around 25–26°C • 💦 Nutrient solution: around 25°C • ⚗️ pH: approximately 6.0 • ⚡ EC: gradually being reduced as we approach the later flowering stage • 💨 CO₂: approximately 693 ppm • 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 • 💧 Irrigation: approximately 1.4–1.45 L/plant/24h • 🌱 Pot size: 15 L • ☀️ Upper canopy: approximately 1,500 PPFD • 🔌 Future of Grow fixtures: approximately 59% power And again... numbers are useful. But the plant is the final feedback mechanism. And Godfather OG Pheno A looks like she's continuing to move exactly where we want her to move. ──────────────────────── 🌿 STILL NO REASON TO MANUFACTURE WORK ──────────────────────── I'm still doing very little physically to her. And I'm perfectly happy with that. 😂 There was a time in this grow when there was always something to do. Now? The Queen has her structure. She has her flowers. She has her leaves. She has her space. She has her photons. And she's using them. So why would I start interfering simply because I feel like I should be busy? My job now is observation. Watch the flowers. Watch the leaves. Watch the environment. Watch the irrigation. Watch the nutrition. And respond when the plant actually gives me a reason to respond. That's cultivation too. Sometimes growing is doing. Sometimes growing is knowing when not to do. ──────────────────────── 📸 THE CAMERA IS BACK ON HER SIDE ──────────────────────── And thank God... because this girl is giving us some beautiful material. 😂📸👑 The full-plant photographs show her presence in the room. The closer photographs show the flowers becoming increasingly developed. And the macro details show the resin and pistils evolving. You can see the transition. Earlier photographs showed much fresher flowers. Now we're seeing a mixture of fresh white pistils and older pistils beginning to change. We're seeing more mature-looking floral structures. We're seeing the foliage beginning to show more colour variation. And all of that is exactly what makes a weekly diary worthwhile. You don't have to rely on memory. The photographs remember for you. ──────────────────────── 🔬 SAME ROOM – DIFFERENT MATURATION ──────────────────────── And once again... this is why the 8×8 Adventure is so much fun. Twelve plants. One room. Shared conditions. Shared lighting. Shared irrigation. Shared nutritional philosophy. And yet... they don't all mature in exactly the same way. Godfather OG Pheno A is giving us her own timeline. She's moving quickly. She's changing. She's developing. She's showing colour changes. She's showing evolving pistils. She's building resin. And she's doing all of it while sharing the same environment as eleven other plants. That's genetics. That's phenotype expression. That's the experiment. ──────────────────────── 👑 THE QUEEN DOESN'T NEED TO BE PERFECT ──────────────────────── And this is something I want to emphasize. The Queen doesn't need to stay perfectly green from top to bottom forever to be beautiful. 😂👑🌿 Plants are living organisms. They change. Leaves age. Flowers mature. Pistils change. Colours shift. Textures change. And that's part of the process. What matters is understanding the difference between normal maturation and a plant genuinely telling you that something is wrong. We're watching for patterns. Rapid changes. Unusual damage. Problems spreading in unexpected ways. Changes in new growth. Changes in the flowers. And we're comparing everything with the overall health of the plant. Right now, the Queen is still giving us a very strong overall picture. She's moving. She's flowering. She's developing. She's shining. ──────────────────────── 🔮 LOOKING AHEAD ──────────────────────── The next stage is going to be about patience. We're getting closer. The nutrition is being reduced gradually. The flowers are continuing to mature. The pistils are continuing to evolve. The leaves are beginning to show more of the plant's natural progression. And the resin... well... the resin is going to keep getting my attention. 😂💎📸 So we'll continue: 🌸 Watching flower development 💎 Watching resin production ? Watching pistil evolution 🌿 Watching the foliage ⚗️ Gradually reducing mineral nutrition 💧 Maintaining consistent irrigation ☀️ Maintaining the controlled lighting environment 🌡️ Watching the room 📸 Photographing the changes No rushing. No panic. No unnecessary intervention. Just watching the Queen finish her story. ──────────────────────── 💭 FINAL THOUGHTS – THE QUEEN IS SHINING ──────────────────────── Week 12. And our Queen is still shining. 👑🌸💎 She's moving fast. She's beautiful. She's developing. She's changing. And yes... her leaves are showing more colour now. But that's not automatically a problem. It's part of why we observe the entire plant rather than reacting to one leaf. As flowering progresses, older foliage can naturally begin to fade. At the same time, the flowers continue developing. The pistils evolve from fresh white hairs into increasingly mature structures. The resin becomes more obvious. The flowers become more defined. And the plant gradually moves toward the final part of her journey. That's what we're seeing. Not a plant suddenly falling apart. A plant progressing. A plant changing. A plant maturing. And our job is to recognize the difference. That's why experience matters. That's why photographs matter. That's why looking at the whole plant matters. And that's why we don't panic. 😂👑 We watch. We learn. We respond when necessary. And otherwise... we let the plant be a plant. Godfather OG Pheno A has been writing her own story from the beginning. And now she's getting closer to the final chapters. She's still catching photons. Still developing flowers. Still producing resin. Still showing those beautiful white pistils alongside the ones beginning to mature. And still making herself noticed in this jungle. So keep shining, Queen. 👑🌿🌸💎 Your photographer is back. Your portraits are secured. Your flowers are developing. Your leaves are telling us you're progressing. And we're right here watching every step. Let's keep those photons flying. Let's keep documenting. Let's keep learning. And let's let the Queen finish this chapter in her own time. ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU ──────────────────────── As always, a massive thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document these individual journeys and share the process with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Godfather OG genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore how different phenotypes can express themselves under the same conditions. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden throughout this journey with the growing media and nutrition. And a huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and giving us the opportunity to test what this expanded lighting setup can do in a real flowering room. We're running the additional lighting with controlled output rather than simply pushing everything to maximum, giving us more capability and more flexibility while keeping power consumption under control. Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light deeper into the canopy and allowing us to explore three-dimensional lighting throughout the room. And thank you to TrolMaster for helping monitor and manage the environment behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following these girls week after week. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by. You're all part of the adventure. Twelve plants. One room. One shared environment. And twelve completely different stories. And Godfather OG Pheno A? She's writing hers like royalty. 😂👑 She's beautiful. She's moving fast. She's developing those flowers. She's getting increasingly frosty. Her pistils are evolving. Her leaves are beginning to show the colours of maturity. And she's claiming her place in the tent. So yes... this week we have photographs again. 😂📸👑 And I promise the Queen appreciates it. Let's keep watching. Let's keep photographing. Let's keep those photons flying. And let's see what the next chapter brings. Until next week... Growers Love, my friends. 🌱💚 Happy growing, take care everyone, and give the Queen some room to shine. 👑🌿🌸💎🔥 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle.

She seems to be growing kinda slow.. I'm sure it's from all the stress I put on her. She should pick back up this week. Day 30 and she has some calyxes poppin up everywhere.. I think day 31 I found her first pistil.. Ill know for sure day 32. She's healthy and the slow growth is picking up a little. I need to put in some horizontal spikes to tie the branches down a little more.. Just enough to give the colas room to grow at this point. She's not gonna be a massive yield (obviously) but not gonna be a complete waste of time. Once I harvest my current main plant I will try it again in a 5 gallon pot. Yup! Pistils at day 32.. Just small and hard to take a pic of. Preflower begins!!! This week temps have been getting up to 86F.. I put in a 2nd inline fan with carbon filter and 2 more fans for the top of canopy to get some air movement. The air is NOT cooling down enough so Im just gonna have to go without the filter. ... Later that day... Even without the filter, the tent still gets up to 84F.. WTF?! It was staying below 80 with just a little clip-on fan and small inline fan pulling air out and nothing pushing air in.. Im using the smaller inline to pull air in and the new inline pulling air out.. Now it gets warmer.. I dont get it.. Gonna have to go back to my old setup I guess.. ... Even later that day... Put up the old ventalation.. But with extra fan still pulling in air.. Smell may be strong throughout my room when lights go out.. But oh well.. I love the smell. Tied down branches a little more.. They should be far enough to do what she needs to do.. Pistils are there.. Just very very small at this point.. But they are there on a couple branches lookin good and happy! 😊 no more leaf removing.. This is only my 3rd auto... Second auto is only halfway through flower now.. Sooo, I'm still learning!!!

Flowering day 68 since clock change to 12/12 Hey guys :-) . It's so far, the lady is ripe and will be cut at the bottom end in the coming days and hung upside down in the drying tent :-) . Next week there will be an extra update on how they are hanging. Watering would be done twice this week with 1 l each (nutrients see table above) Otherwise it was checked and everything was cleaned. Have fun and stay healthy 💚🙏🏻 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 A thank you for this wonderful strain goes out to Herzog https://instagram.com/herzog030?utm_medium=copy_link and the Exotic Seeds team You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros.

Day 24 Fotoshooting Light Power: 60% Since I was away for a week, the plant was on its own. Unfortunately, the humidifier ran out of water, so the humidity was only 40% for two days. But despite that, the little plant survived. However, it’s showing signs of overwatering and heat stress. Since the roots had grown quite a bit in the tank by then, I cut them off—along with the excess wick—and planted the little one in its final pot. Afterward, I added 750 mL of SF nematodes.

🌸 Flowering – Week 2 | Day 10 (Day 47 overall) Strawberry AK – Current Status The plant is currently at flowering week 2, day 10, which marks 47 days since germination. Height is approximately 33 cm. A significant stretch has not started yet, but it is expected to begin soon. 🌿 Early Issue – Resolved The initial concern observed earlier was not a genetic failure but rather a CalMag deficiency combined with slightly underpowered feeding. After applying CalMag as a foliar spray and slightly increasing the nutrient strength, the leaf condition stabilized within a few days. Since then, the plant has shown healthy progression. 💧 Feeding & EC This run clearly shows that the Strawberry AK has a relatively high nutrient demand compared to previous grows. Current EC: ~1.5 A few leaf tips are slightly lightened. This is not classic nutrient burn, but rather an indication that the plant is being pushed close to its optimal limit. At this stage, increasing EC further would not be advisable. 🌸 Structure & Development The canopy is dense, overall color is healthy and rich, and flower sites are forming cleanly. The upcoming stretch phase will be an important indicator of how the plant continues to respond to the current feeding level.

The scrog was no good idea. Had to remove it today. Problems: unable to change water properly and can‘t clean the tank during the process. So.. scrog is gone and the LST is back 😂 and i switched to 12/12 because of my other plants in the tent.

Very robust plant with a lot of big buds. It smell very sweet like a mango with citrus and floral. Amazing.

Grüßt euch Freunde! Heute ist der vorletzte Tag der Woche 6. Die Blüten entwickeln sich prächtig und Resin ist ordentlich vorhanden. Man kann schön sehen wie die Blätter langsam ‚faden‘ . Ziel ist: am Ende alle übrigen Nährstoffe verbraucht zu haben, sodass wir einen angenehmen smoke bekommen. Werde daher die nährstoffzufuhr einstellen und sie das verbrauchen lassen, was noch in Boden und Blättern gespeichert ist. Bin der Meinung, dass davon einfach noch genug gespeichert ist. Wer da andere Erfahrungen gemacht hat, kann das gerne mal kommentieren! Bis dahin euch allen eine gute Woche !💚

Obama runtz x gas tax sad to say both seedlings are super crappy so far. If it was not for the gas tax parent being the best flower ever then I wld just toss these but sometimes the crappy slow growing plants end up being super dank It's looking like a good start to a week the plants are strong they are getting to the point I can let the dried dry out completely. I'm thinking by the end of this week the plants will be starting to be sold. Last week I put all the plants into my bigger 2x4 tent with my medicgrow mini sun 2 the 500w version. Only a few of the plants were ready for that light. Seems like the only plants that really have good resistance and have a strong start are the weedseedsexpress.com seeds. Shout out to weedseedsexpress.com for the strong plants. I ended up putting all the plants back into my 2x2 tent with the 55w amazon light it has alot more blue light in its spectrum. It's kinda weird b4 I switched the plants to the 2x4 tent they were getting 220umol under my amazon 55w led then when I put them under the 500w light 25% strength about 50in from plants and they were getting only about 195umol in that tent but it was stressing most the plants. I assume a larger light has more side lighting hitting the plants. I think when useing larger lights it's good to measure umols from the top but also coming from the sides. I think durring seedling stage they only need about 50% the umols coming from the side the plants as the top is receiving. When I put the plants back in the small tent about the same umols as they were getting b4 the switch and they were still a little stressed. So for a few days I put the small light at the top the tent giving them 100umols for a few hrs then 130umols the rest the day.

In the beginning of this week ( Monday in the late afternoon) I started seeing some burnt tips. Not really a big deal if you give less nutrients in the future, but i don't like it. Thats why i decided to flush my plants and check the run-off. PH levels where decent but the EC was to high. Not a suprise because I forced them a bit last week by giving some more nutrients. So right now my PH and EC for the kushes are arround PH 5.8-6 with 1.3-1.5 EC and for my shamans PH 6.3-6.4 with ec 1.5-1.6 After my flush, I gave all the plants some Canna RHIZOTONIC ( root stimulator). I advice everyone to give root stimulator after stressing the plant out with like flushing. In this grow i always weight my pots, therefor i always know when to perfectly feed them. They dronk 9 to 10 liters of water/feeding in like 96hours(4 full days) which is insane because it wasn't that sunny/hot (evaporation) and they are not trees being in the open ground. and maybe the most importent thing is that normaly your roots will stress a bit because of overwatering(flushing) and will go into a shutdown or having a hard time for a period as a result that your pots will stay heavy(full of water) for some days. In my case, this didn't happen at all. Wednesday I sprayed all the leafs with Canna Cure for some nice leaf nutrients,getting rid of minor trips and to prevent other unwanted renters. Friday I started feeding them again with nutrients, like 2-3 liters each plant and today I gave them water 2-3 liters each plant with only Enzymen in it. It was a crazy thirsty week for them with an average of 1.6-1.7 liters a day😅 Sadly one lower branch got damaged and had to get rid of it but I didn't mind that much since these buds where far behind other buds in developement. I placed one bud under the microscope for fun and saw insane amounts of thc on it haha, and that for just week 5 of flowering for a outside grow. Made a picture of it, just take a look at it. - Critical kushes started getting into preflower, finnally!! but still, only 6 weeks left before it gets to cold outside. - Did some LST again because the criticalkushes are still stretching. They might still stretch for another 1 to 2 weeks, its getting out of hand haha. - Shamans and the critical kushes get different feeding schedules, Should had done that waaaaay earliyer but I didn't care about it until now. - Forgot to supercrop my plants LOL, for the shamans it is to late, don't want to stress them out in their stage, but i did in on the kushes, since they are only 1 week in flowering, still growing a bit, it would't harm them that much. No need for steering them around, already done that. Just doing it to stress them out a bit so they will send more nutrients to the branches for bigger yield. Have to keep remind myself that this is just an outside fun grow but I just can't help myself buying stuff and wanting to do more/better. Hope you guys enjoyed watching and reading.

Our Zamnesia photoperiod plants have also started their journey into the magical flowering period, this is the first week. ---- The general environmental conditions are good, the heat has increased a bit again but for the first weeks of flowering it is not a big problem, let's remember to never exceed 27 degrees centigrade in the last 4 weeks to avoid jeopardizing the quality of the flowers. If necessary, open the growbox but never let it exceed 27-30 degrees where 30 is already a lot. The good thing is that as soon as the lights are turned off the change is already visible a bit and as autumn progresses we will also improve. The humidity is fluctuating but we try to control it with two dehumidifiers when necessary, pushing both possibly not into the growbox but directly into the room. (I dehumidify the room and the air in the growbox should also be dehumidified) - Here we are at a top secret level so I can tell you that she is called XXX Test 1 and we really like how she climbs up. In fact they are because one is climbing up straight nice and fast too, the other was worked with a topping and let's see how it ends. --- Feeding Program - The fertilizers are always Plagron and I am following the table that I generated on the site depending on the substrate chosen. Create your card and follow it, never be presumptuous my friend as I have been in the past, follow the card and look at the plants, not all need the same amount of fertilizer. We have arrived at the moment to give a good dose of ferrò in the first weeks of flowering, already of race life not sprayed but mixed with fertilizers. ---- https://plagron.com/en - Power Roots - 1ml/l - Alga Bloom - 4 ml/l - Pure Zym - 1 ml/l - Sugar Royal - 1ml/l - Vita Race - 5 ml/l --- Dehumidifier is now running between 50% - 55 % --- The 100% Organic pack by Plagron can be found on Zamnesia at the link: https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11457 -pla gron-easy-pack-natural.html --- We have removed the deumi diifier and now the values ​​​​range from 45 to 60% we will put the dehumidifiers into operation in the 3/4 week of bloom - Get a seed of this fantastic strain --- new strain coming soon no strain description becouse is a secret - Soil and Fertilizers entirely organic -- https://plagron.com/en buy on www.zamnesia.io - air system --- https://www.secretjardin.com/ - Growbox & Light —— www.Marshydro.eu - Music and sound --- I made my girls listen to 432hz frequencies and music from www.radionula.com - Z --- You can find these seeds, much more from the world of cannabis, mushrooms and an incredible series of accessories and gadgets on the reference site not only mine but of many growers —— https://www .zamnesia.io

4/28 Day 35 I wish this plant was bigger. Could be my fault. Her transition to flower was at such an odd time(3weeks) and that’s when her last feeding was coming to an end but should I give her flower nutes early? Do half an half? Or just wait and then give flower? I waited and I shouldn’t have considering that organic inputs take time to feed your plants. Depending on what you’re using. First time trying Gaia green. I do like the ease of it but it would take some adjustments for me to utilize it best. A month between feeding is too long for my impatient ass and it gives me too long of a commitment to not fuck up. I’m also using roots organics with some other plants and I’m really liking the weekly feedings. It makes more sense than a month. What if I have a strain that’s like 10 week flower? Do I just do another dose at week 7 and 8 and then because it’s “organic you don’t need to flush” thing. Probably over thinking it but yeah here’s my plant yall 😂

Time for the stretch! Lots of flowering growth happening now. I can see where the bud spots will be so I’m going to have to stop moving the branching around in the Scrog, also the branches are getting thick and less pliable.

Getting hot here. Scattered thunderstorms, very windy. The girls are loving life. I am hoping the strawberries and cream will be a male. I’d like to see what I can come up with, breeding it with the Afghani Purple Kush and the Platinum Silk. Watering almost daily until I see a bit of water coming out of the bottom. Supersoil is holding strong and keeping them very healthy. I am going to start another Round of sprays with azamax. I will do once every 8 days at 1.5oz per gallon in a pump sprayer. I have seen several leafhoppers on my plants. Most of the other insect life I posted pictures of have not been seen on my plants, except hover flies!

Hey Growmies! I'm thrilled to share my latest project: two exceptional grow environments, each a lush green haven with 9 plants on plant rollers. We’re employing a blend of Scrog (Screen of Green) and Sog (Sea of Green) techniques. Each plant has its individual ScroG, directly connected to its air-pot, facilitating easy mobility and care within the tent. As the Room is on the cooler side at the moment, I've set up a Solea infrared heater, controlled by an Inkbird ITC-308 temperature controller, to maintain a cozy climate. Each tent is also equipped with a Spider Farmer Cool Mist humidifier for perfect humidity levels. Initially, I planned for identical setups in both tents, but adaptation is crucial. I encountered a challenge with the UR45 lights due to their single plug and UV/IR switches. To overcome this, in Tent 1, I’ve installed two UR45 lights: one dedicated to IR and the other to UV, each managed by a Meross smart plug. The Mars Hydro app manages the light and in-line fan controls in Tent 2, though it has its limitations. The ITC-308 takes care of the infrared heater, while the humidifier regulates itself. I'm really into this setup, but I'm already thinking about upgrading to a single grow controller for all devices. Excitingly, ‘Epic Buzz’ in Tent 1 is competing in the Tent-X Ultimate Grow Challenge sponsored by Trolmaster, who has also sponsored a Tent X Controller for this tent. This addition will greatly enhance our control and monitoring capabilities in this tent. This grow season is extra thrilling as I’m collaborating with Anesia Seeds and Ganja Farmer Seeds. They've provided some amazing strains. Tent #1 houses ‘Epic Buzz’, ‘Red Banana Pudding’, and ‘Pink Matcha Slush’ from Anesia Seeds. Tent #2 features ‘Caramel’, ‘GMO’, and ‘Bruce Banner x White Russian’ from Ganja Farmer Seeds. I’ll be documenting their growth in individual diaries.
