18.6.2k24 ✅💚 23.6. - Low stress for a stronger peak

7/4 SUN was poking out a little bit. Plants loved that little feeding and seen to he noticeable larger this morning. I'm considering starting the nutes. At least the organic ones as well as upping the water intake I've been scared to water with all this rain and my experience last time. I plan on applying BT this afternoon and doing some work on the bottoms of the plants. I also saw a chipmunk in my cage so I have some spots in my fence that need to be patched. I know I can't compare this year to orher years as these are seeds and all the other years were clones. I CAN say for certain that my plants are healthiest they've been out of any of my journals. Previous plants were much larger but I was fighting numerous fungal, pathogens and pests at the sane time. Ear wigs would've lollipopped most buddies by now but I've seen no sign of them. I'm going to apply more poison where they were and add some rat traps inside the cage for the chipmunks. Once I fix the cage I think I'll be good. UPDATE: Went back over and fixed the holes on my cage from high winds. I found an old wire trap or cage and just cut sections and ziptied them to the existing wire and to the structure thus covering any open holes. I'll need to put lathes aroubdvtge outside because if a rodent REALLY wanted in they could get in. My belt had been wearing thin but I use shit until it breaks (yesterday the heal came off my shoe lol) so I was working hard sweating my nuts off and my belt gives out totally. At least ive got the major stuff done. I took a few videos too. I'm imagining it was this little bit of sun that gave these plants that boost of growth but I'm wondering if the added nutes had anything to do with it. Bags weren't light and I could feel moisture in the soil so I didn't water. I'll check again tomorrow morning. Since I didn't see many plants or even leaves for that matter with damage I decided to hold off ob the BT and the plant doctor. Only time will tell if that was the right decision. 7/5 Plants look fantastic. I see a few more holes in leaves sporadically amd I'm hoping it's pillars. I've seen lots of lightning bugs on my camera though and grasshoppers are abundant. Not one growth shoot has been chewed (knock on wood) which is what the earwigs had always done. I watched a video from last year and by nowcthey had lollipopped all lower leaves. It may not be the best weather growing season wise but despite the rh consistently in the 90's I still don't have pm or fungal pathogens. Need to get the BT out. Didn't water as we've had all that rain. I'll water either tonight or tomorrow morning. Sunny high in the 90s low is 66. Tomorrow looks good too. UPDATE WENT BACK OVER AROUND FIVE. IT WAS 88 DEGREES SO I WANTED TO CHECK THE GROW BAGS. THE POTS ARE FINE. IT WAS HUMID AS HELL. ONE PLANT WAS SLIGHTLY DROOPY BUT VERY LIGHT AND DRY. I FOUND TWO OTHERS THAT SEEMED LIGHTER THAN THE REST BUT HADNT DROOPED. I MIXED TWO GALLONS OF WATER WITH 1TSP KANGOROOTS AMD PHED IT CLOSE TO 6. I FED THE 3 PLANTS THAT WERE SUPER DRY LIKE A HALF GALLON AND SPRED THE REST OVER THE OTHER EIGHT PLANTS. THEY WERENT DROOPING BUT THEY WERE VERY DRY. I PLAN ON A FULL WATER TOMORROW. I WOULDVE DONE IT TODAY IF THE TEMPS WERENT SO HIGH. ITS RAINED A MONTH STRAIGHT SO I HAVENT HAD TO WATER. I MADE A COUPLE VIDEOS BUT I'LL HAVE TO UPLOAD TOMORROW. 7/6 Another super hot day. I hefted the pots and they still had some weight but I could tell they were dry. This rain has messed up my watering schedule. Well it made it so I didn't NEED to water. These are big plants now. I need to get a schedule to stick too. They're going to probably need a gallon a piece at least. I'm still nervous watering. Right now I'm just reading the plants. I added .5tsp kelp me/you to 1 gallon of water to help with heat stress. I fed an additional two gallons to the garden this morning including the two container plants in the back. They were dry on top too but I know they have water deeper down. Next watering I'll be more consistent and try to give them there 10%. It's great having the bags elevated. I can finally see when I start getting run off. I could even measure the ph of it instead of relying on that meter. Ill check the ph when I go back over. Still a few 🐛 holes but they are few and far between. I really don't want to spray for such a small problem but if I cant find them at night that's what I'll do. UPDATE: Another 90 degree day. I went back over and gave the garden a gallon of water as they were dry and it didn't rain. Tried to use a soil ph meter to check ph. First couple were 6.4, 6.5 then I got 7.3 and I accidently dropped it. Then I got somethings that were high eights and even one 9! Obviously the Meter shit the bed. I'll lower the ph of the water slightly when I fully water tomorrow and I'm going to measure the runoff. 7/8 I must've messed up the journal again as the dates are off. GAVE PLANTS A FULL WATERING. Each girl got a gallon. I couldn't upload my videos this morning as I had to break up a fight. 3 on 1. Didn't give me a chance to put the videos up. I'll take some stills then I can upload them. I took stills and they all uploaded but didn't fucking save. I'm nit going to keep trying to upload if it's not going to. Noticed a few more holes in leaves and one skeletinized leaf so I need to either spray the bt or something more versatile. I'm putting more poison around the cage and de between the bags. I'll go check things out tonight. Sick of writing a book and uploading to just hace them disappear 7/9 Did a quick video today. Noticed the bags were fairly light despite the plants being soaked amd the pallets wet. I was pressed for time. I gave two gallons to the entire garden. I hope that will hold them over until tomorrow. I'll need to up how much water I give them. Going with a gallon and a half next time. I see more pillar spots and a moth took off when I shook the plants this morning. So I'm gonna have too apply the BT. I figure if I go over before dark tonight I might be able to see aju nocturnal insects around. Luckily my dad feeds the birds and they are always there. I think they help with pests. UPDATE IT WAS A LITTLE COOLER TODAY BUT MICH MORE HUMID. I WENT AROUND SIX TO MAKE SURE THE GIRLS WERE OK WITH WATER AND TO GIVE THEM A TREATMENT OF BT. I WENT THROUGH THE GARDEN ANDCGOUND THREE LEQVES TO DEFOLIATE AND LITERALLY A COUPLE LEAVES ON TWO PLANTS WITH PILLAR HILESM WHEN I ARRIVED TWO BIRDS FLEW OUT. A HORNET CAME IN WHILE I WAS THERE. THIS DO LESS APPROACH SEEMS TO BE REALLY WORKING. I DODNT SEE NEARLT ENOUGH DAMAGE TO WARRANT SPRAY8NG MY EXTREMELY HEALTHY GIROS WITH ANYTHING. ILL KEEP AN EYE ON THEM AND CLEAN THEM UP A BIT. I DO NEED TO INSTALL THE VERY8CAL TRELLIS FOR SUPPORT. THEYRE PRETTY HEALTHY THOUGH. ONE PLANT IS ABOUT AS WIDE AS IT IS TALL. STILL......PLANTS ARE EXPLODING AND ITS GETTING TIGHT IN THERE. I NEED TO GET THE TRELLIS UP THOUGH. 7/10 I went over and was planning to water. Plants were wet and it's raining. Top of the medium was moist but the bags were light. ONE bag was super light but seeing that we are having showers all day and an additional half inch of rain coming tonight so I didn't water them. Especially since they looked great. Decided to to spray BT yet as the damage is so small and i think the birds have been taking care of the pillars for me. Now I'm wondering if I should've gave that ONE plant a little bit of water but it will be find. Did a video. I'm being careful not to over water. Last year this is when all my buddies were devoured by earwigs. And no senescence like the years before. I think it was hust those earwigs. I haven't lost shot for leaves. Even the stalks are bright green and look amazing.

This week, I'm going to keep closer tabs on daily activities. All plants are showing signs of deficiencies. Monday 1/18 - "Flushed" all plants with Clearex. I did about 2.5 gallons per plant and I normally water about 1. I think in general, I'm going to up my watering from here on out if they survive. Tues 1/19 - No watering. Still got a good bit of moisture in the pots. All three plants look a bit healthier. Wed 1/20 - All plants healed by Biden lol. Just in case that fails, I top amended with FFOF mixed with like 2 tbs of Dr Earth, spread across soil for all 3 pots. I watered 3, 3gallon plants with 5 gallons total. Apx 1.5 gallons per plant and they all ran off. Plants looking healthier than they did pre-flush, but I think i'll need to go ahead feed the full amount of Dr Earth at the start of week 9. Thurs 1/21 - Plants are looking pretty good. Critical Kush leaves are turning a bit purple, could be phosphorus def. Friday 1/22 - Normally I would have watered, but the top 2 inches felt damp and the moisture meter shows 2-3 towards the bottom. Gonna give it another day Sat 1/23 - Feed and watering time! I went ahead and did 4 Tablespoons of Dr Earth Life in each 3 gallon pot. The most I've fed to date. This week seems to have been recovering fairly well. Check out the video for a decent tour. In the video I said I fed 4 teaspoons, but it was tablespoons. 😵

Have been clearing out a lot leaves and branches, decided to just LST on one plant and Fiming on the other one. And training have been applied to all plants.

Week 5 The plants are exploding! Its just one week to the last update. The Durban Poison are the 4 plants on the top right. The plants are very happy with the soil mixture and all the fertilizer I added. and i think the mycrorhizae from the forest-soil connected already to the plant roots, which is fckn good news. All plants are looking super healthy! And more good news 3 out of the 4 plants are females. The test results from the lab came yesterday 💪 Only 2 more weeks and then these beauties will go outside! I m getting so excited! Next update in 2 weeks! I cant wait hahaha 💪💪🎉

2017-09-11. Kl 12.00. Week 4 starts. I have cleaned the whole room for the new week and gave the girls water and nutes. Added videos and pics. Girl is 21 cm high. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-12. Kl 10.00. New pics and video. She has grown from 21 cm to 25 cm in 23 hours. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-15. KL 10.00. New pics and video. The girl is 30 cm high and has grown 9 cm the last 4 days. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-16. Kl 10.00. She is growing like crazy and needs to get defoliated every morning. I added 2 new videos and gave her 2 liters of water and nutes. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well there looking really good the smell fairly skunky with a little orange peel smell so yeah the got even bigger they have stopped frowning well some of them but yeah there awesome plant but just doesn’t provide me with enough bud lol so yeah if you want more for this plant veg is where it’s at lol so what I mean is veg for a longer time if you have the space cause these plants grow really squat

07.09.26 täglich kann ich eine gute Hand voll gelber Blätter abzupfen. Der Sichtschutz durch die Pflanzen hat bereits deutlich abgenommen, nun sieht man auch von außen deutlich die Blütenstände und die Struktur der Pflanzen. Um das Abbrechen der schwerer werdenden Äste durch Wind und Wetter zu verhindern habe ich viele mit Paketschnur an den Stamm oder den Pflanzstab gebunden. Ein Freund stellt mit BloomCraft Boosters eigene Zusätze für saftige Blüten her und hat mir Proben von Triacontanol und Frosty Buds gegeben, welche ich nun bereits einmal eingesetzt habe. Das Triacontanol ist ein natürliches Pflanzenhormon von welchem ich 0.8ml/l bei 7 Litern Wasser auf alle vier Pflanzen verteilt habe. Ich bin mit der Entwicklung der Pflanzen zufrieden, besonders das keine weiteren Schädlinge aufgetaucht sind. Ob das mit an den zwei Rosmarin Pflänzchen liegt, dir mit ihrem Duft manch Ungeziefer abhalten, man weiß es nicht. Vergangene Woche habe ich bei Kleinanzeigen einen halb hohen Gefrierschrank mit drei Fächern für 50€ geholt, der nun im Keller auf seinen Einsatz wartet für WPFF. Freunde das wird ein toller Herbst! Happy growing!

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno B Week 10 | Let This Beautiful Girl Shine 🌿🌸💡 Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And once again... Cash Express Pheno B is simply doing her thing. No drama. No complaints. No unnecessary changes. Just growing. Beautifully. At her own rhythm. And honestly, the more I look at this girl, the more I appreciate what she's becoming. She's still carrying that deep, lush green through her leaves, and the flowering sites are becoming increasingly defined. The buds are developing beautifully. The hairs are becoming more abundant. The structure is becoming easier to read. And she's starting to look like exactly what she has been telling us she wanted to become all along. A beautiful, vigorous Cash Express phenotype with a personality entirely her own. So this week... we're not here to reinvent her. We're here to appreciate her. We're here to look at what she's doing. And we're definitely going to give her the spotlight she deserves. 🚂🌿🌸🔥 🌱 Week 10 – Still Doing Her Thing Cash Express Pheno B is now around 93 cm tall. And compared with her sister, that difference continues to be one of the interesting parts of this diary. Pheno A has her own compact character. Pheno B chose a different route. She's taller. She's more extended. She's occupying her space differently. But what's really important is that she isn't simply getting taller for the sake of getting taller. She's building. She's developing. She's creating flowering structure throughout that architecture. And now, at Week 10, that structure is becoming increasingly beautiful. She's not rushing. She's not trying to keep up with anybody else in the room. She's simply continuing along her own path. And that's something I've learned to appreciate enormously during this adventure. The plant sets the rhythm. We observe. We support. And we let her show us what she's capable of. 🌿 That Deep, Lush Green One of the first things that catches my attention this week is the foliage. That deep, lush green is absolutely beautiful. There's something very satisfying about seeing a plant carrying that much healthy, vibrant foliage while simultaneously developing her flowers. The leaves aren't just background decoration. They're the working machinery of the plant. They're capturing light. They're processing photons. They're driving photosynthesis. And ultimately, they're helping provide the energy that supports everything we're seeing happen throughout the plant. So when I look at this beautiful green canopy, I'm not just seeing colour. I'm seeing a plant with an active photosynthetic engine. And Cash Express Pheno B is certainly keeping hers running. 🌿💚 💡 Photons – The Invisible Part of the Story This week I really want to spend some time talking about something we can't actually see. Photons. We can see the LEDs. We can see the leaves. We can see the flowers. But we can't see the individual photons moving through the room. And yet they're involved in almost everything we're documenting. Every day, the Future of Grow Black Series LEDs are creating our artificial sun. Photons leave those LEDs. They travel through the room. They reach the canopy. And when they encounter the leaves, that light becomes usable energy through photosynthesis. That's the invisible part of this entire story. When we're looking at Cash Express and admiring her green leaves, her developing flowers and her structure... we're really looking at the visible result of an enormous number of tiny interactions between the plant and the light. And that's pretty damn fascinating. 💡🌿 ☀️ Future of Grow – Bringing the Sun Indoors The Future of Grow LEDs continue to provide the primary illumination for the room. And one of the things I love about this 8×8 experiment is that we're putting twelve very different plants underneath the same artificial sun. The photons don't know which plant they're hitting. 😂 They simply arrive. The genetics decide what happens next. And that's where things become interesting. One phenotype stretches. Another stays compact. One builds a certain flower structure. Another develops differently. One plant seems to want to occupy every available centimetre. Another is perfectly happy taking her time. Same room. Same photons. Different answers. Cash Express Pheno B has clearly chosen her own answer. And I'm very happy with what she's showing us. 💡 Photons Don't Only Belong to the Top Canopy There's another part of the lighting strategy that becomes increasingly interesting as the plants develop. A flowering plant is a three-dimensional object. It's not just a flat canopy underneath a lamp. There are leaves and flowers at different heights. There are branches running through different levels. There are inner areas. Outer areas. Upper areas. Lower areas. And that's where our Lumiflora lighting becomes particularly valuable. We're bringing additional light into parts of the canopy that naturally don't receive the same exposure as the uppermost leaves. So we're not thinking only about: "How much light is hitting the top?" We're also thinking about: "Where else can useful photons go?" And that's a fascinating way to look at the room. Light is moving through the garden. Leaves are intercepting it. Some photons are absorbed. Some pass deeper into the canopy. Some reach lower foliage and flowers. And the entire structure becomes a constantly changing landscape of light. That's why canopy architecture matters so much. We're not just growing plants. We're managing a three-dimensional relationship between plants, photons and space. 💡🌿🌸 🌸 The Buds Are Starting to Tell Their Story And then... of course... we get to the flowers. This is where Cash Express Pheno B is really becoming beautiful. The buds are developing a much more recognizable structure now. Those hairs are becoming increasingly obvious. They're emerging from the flowers in abundance, giving the buds that beautiful textured appearance. And the more I look at the photographs, the more I can see the flower formation becoming defined. We're moving further away from those early flowering points and increasingly toward recognizable bud structures. There's still plenty of development ahead. But we're getting there. Slowly. Beautifully. And very much in her own style. 🌸🔥 ? Those Beautiful Hairs I have to give the pistils their own little moment this week. Because they're beautiful. The amount of fresh hairs developing throughout the flowers really catches the eye. And this is one of those characteristics that makes photographing her so enjoyable. You can see them from a distance. But get the camera closer... and suddenly there's a completely different level of detail. Little hairs emerging from the developing flowers. Individual structures becoming more defined. The flowers becoming more substantial underneath them. It's one of those moments where you realize: She's actually building something here. And she's doing it beautifully. 🌿 No Need to Fight Her Personality This girl has already told us who she is. She's vigorous. She's lush. She's taller than her sister. She's developing a different architecture. And she's moving at her own pace. So why would I try to make her something else? That's one of the lessons I keep coming back to throughout this project. Growing isn't always about imposing a plan on the plant. Sometimes it's about creating a good framework... and then listening. Cash Express Pheno B doesn't need to become Pheno A. She doesn't need to match another plant. She doesn't need to develop according to somebody else's timeline. She's writing her own story. And I'm here to document it. 📸🌿 💨 The Environment – Keeping Things Steady We're continuing to keep the room as stable as possible. Current conditions are approximately: 🌡️ Day temperature: 29.9°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 RH: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: ~639 ppm 💦 Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌡️ Substrate temperature: 26°C 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 📏 Height: ~93 cm Summer continues to make temperature management interesting. 😂☀️ One day wants to be warmer. The next wants to be slightly cooler. But we're doing our best to keep the important parameters consistent and, most importantly, avoid unnecessary fluctuations. We're not chasing perfection. We're chasing stability. And the plants seem quite happy with that approach. ⚗️ Nutrition – Keep Doing What Works The nutritional programme remains essentially unchanged. We're continuing with: Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Plagron Pure Zym – 1 ml/L pH adjustment as required The solution remains around pH 6.0 and approximately 2.0 mS/cm EC. And again... why complicate something that isn't asking to be complicated? She's green. She's developing. She's flowering. She's progressing. So we're allowing consistency to remain one of our biggest tools. 🌸 Growing Beautifully at Her Own Rhythm I think this is probably the phrase that best describes Cash Express Pheno B right now. Her own rhythm. She's not necessarily trying to be the fastest plant in the room. She's not trying to finish before everyone else. She's simply continuing to develop. And that makes the comparison between the twelve plants even more interesting. Because if every plant behaved identically, there wouldn't be much of a phenotype story to tell. Instead, we have twelve personalities. Twelve structures. Twelve relationships with the same environment. And twelve different ways of turning photons into plants. That's the real adventure. 📸 Behind the Lens – More to Discover Every Week The photographs this week really reward getting close. The wide shots show her overall structure. The canopy. The height. The distribution of flowering sites. But the close-ups tell another story. The hairs. The developing flower structure. The textures. The tiny details that become increasingly obvious as flowering progresses. This is why I love documenting the plants individually. A photograph doesn't just preserve what happened. When you build a series over many weeks, it becomes a visual timeline. You can look backward and see exactly how far the plant has travelled. And Cash Express Pheno B has certainly travelled a long way. 💡 The Garden Is Basically a Photon Playground One of the things I find fascinating about the 8×8 room is that we're essentially creating a little controlled ecosystem where light is constantly moving through the garden. The Future of Grow LEDs provide the main source. Lumiflora adds another dimension. The leaves intercept photons. The canopy changes. The plants grow into the available space. And as they grow, they change the way the light moves. So the lighting environment isn't completely static. The plants themselves become part of the lighting system. A leaf can intercept light that would otherwise reach a flower. Another leaf may reflect or transmit some light deeper into the canopy. A branch can change the shadow underneath it. And then we have additional lighting helping illuminate some of those less-exposed areas. It's a constantly evolving relationship. And that's one of the reasons I'm enjoying documenting this run so much. We're not just watching plants grow. We're watching an entire environment evolve with them. 🌿💡🌸 🔮 Looking Ahead For now, the plan remains beautifully simple. Keep observing. Keep the environment steady. Keep the irrigation consistent. Keep nutrition consistent. Keep the photons coming. And let Cash Express Pheno B continue doing what she does. Over the next week, I'll be watching: 🌸 Continued bud formation ? Further pistil development 💎 Increasing resin production 🌿 Healthy, lush foliage 💡 How the developing canopy interacts with the light 💨 Good airflow throughout the structure 📈 Increasing flower density and definition No need to force anything. She's already on her way. 💭 Final Thoughts – Let's Give Her the Spotlight Cash Express Pheno B is becoming one of those plants that gets more interesting every time I look at her. She's tall. She's lush. She's carrying that beautiful deep green. Her buds are developing. Her hairs are becoming beautifully defined. And her structure is increasingly telling us exactly what kind of phenotype she is. She's different from her sister. She's different from the other girls. And that's exactly why she deserves her own diary. The photons are doing their part. The Future of Grow LEDs are providing the artificial sun. Lumiflora is helping us bring that light deeper into the canopy. The environment is being kept as stable as summer allows. The nutrition remains consistent. And Cash Express? She's taking everything we've given her... and turning it into her story. Slowly. Beautifully. Naturally. And I wouldn't change that. So this week, there's no dramatic intervention. No big announcement. No attempt to force her into another shape. Just appreciation. Because sometimes the best thing you can do for a beautiful plant is simply step back... look at her... and say: "Keep doing exactly what you're doing." 🚂🌿🌸💡🔥 Cash Express Pheno B... this spotlight is yours. Let's keep those photons flying. Let's keep watching those flowers develop. And let's see where your own little story takes us next. 🙏 Thank You As always, a huge thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Thank you to Zamnesia for giving us the opportunity to explore these genetics and, most importantly, to see just how differently individual phenotypes can express themselves. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden with the growing media and nutrition throughout this journey. Thank you to Future of Grow for providing the Black Series LEDs powering our artificial sun and filling this room with the photons these girls need to do their thing. 💡🌱 And a special thank you to Lumiflora for helping us bring additional light into the inner and lower parts of the canopy and allowing us to explore just how much more interesting lighting becomes when we stop thinking only about the top of the plant. And of course... thank you to everyone following along on GrowDiaries. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person stopping by to see how the girls are doing. You're all part of this adventure. Twelve plants. One room. One environment. One artificial sun. And twelve completely different stories. And this particular story? It's Cash Express Pheno B. She's beautiful. She's lush. She's developing. She's doing it her own way. So let's give her what she deserves. The spotlight. 🌸💡 Until next week... Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! 🌱💚 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿🚂🔥

The last 100 meters shallow hahaha. The vegetative growth and bud formation are good I believe we will have at most 15 more days for plants # B1 # B2 # B4 # B5. Plant # B3 has small white pistils and, due to its structure, there is no way for it to be a photoperiod so it will have more days than its sisters. **UPDATE: B3 finally starting flowering with 66 Days ***UPDATE: 68Days flush Plants OK

🔥 General Development Bubblegum has been pushing strong this week. Buds are noticeably swelling and the trichome production finally started to increase on all tops. The smell became way more defined, a sweet bubblegum/candy aroma every time I open the tent. Pistils still mostly white but starting to curl in some spots. 🌿 What I Did This Week • Light adjustment: maintained good distance, stable PPFD with no signs of bleaching. • Enzyme tea (light mix) to stimulate microbial activity and keep the root zone clean. • Moisture balance kept stable with 5–6 L per watering. 💚 Health Status Very healthy overall. No nutrient burn, no excess, no deficiency. Leaves slightly lighter due to high flower metabolism but still within normal living soil behaviour. Bud formation is symmetrical and stacking nicely. 📈 This Week’s Progress • More resin than last week. • Buds noticeably thicker. • Aroma intensity x2 compared to last update. ✨ Closing Note Bubblegum is officially entering the “bulking phase.” Nothing explosive yet, but solid and steady, exactly what this strain is known for. Next week should be the big resin jump. Stay tuned! 🍬🔥 #livingsoil #organicgrow #elnassgrow #seriousseeds #bubblegum #nemessis200w #season2 #ledgrow #microbelife

Going nice;)))))

Super sticky frosty buds😬🔥👊🏻

Blueberry Muffin – Pheno B Week 6 | Nature Keeps Her Own Calendar Growing multiple phenotypes from the same seed pack is one of the greatest reminders that every plant writes her own story. Even when everything is identical—the same room, the same lighting schedule, the same nutrients, the same environment—each phenotype responds according to its own genetic blueprint. Blueberry Muffin Pheno B continues to prove that point beautifully. While her sister has already settled comfortably into flowering, this lady is still taking her time. She's showing the earliest signs that bloom is approaching, but she hasn't fully committed just yet. And that's perfectly okay. Sometimes the best thing a grower can do is stop trying to rush nature and simply pay attention to what the plant is saying. 🌱 The 12/12 From Seed Adventure If you're joining this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire 8×8 Adventure is being grown using the 12/12 from seed method. From the moment these seeds germinated, they've received twelve hours of light and twelve hours of darkness every single day. Unlike a traditional photoperiod grow, where the grower decides exactly when flowering begins by changing the light cycle, this approach allows each plant to determine its own timing. That's why these two Blueberry Muffin sisters look so different despite growing side by side. Pheno A embraced flowering weeks ago. Pheno B is still finishing the work she wants to do before making that transition. She's reminding us that genetics don't own a calendar. They simply follow their own rhythm. 🌿 A Compact Bush With Big Potential One thing that immediately stands out this week is just how compact this phenotype has become. She's noticeably shorter than her sister, yet every internode is packed tightly together, producing a dense, healthy canopy filled with future flowering sites. The gentle Low Stress Training continues to work exactly as intended. Rather than forcing dramatic changes, it has gradually opened the plant while encouraging side branches to grow upward and compete for the canopy. Leaf tucking has remained part of the daily routine, helping expose developing shoots without removing unnecessary foliage. With such tight growth, every little adjustment makes a noticeable difference. The result is a beautifully balanced little bush that feels full of potential. 💧 Individual Care for an Individual Plant One advantage of growing each phenotype as its own diary is being able to treat every plant according to its own needs. Unlike several of the other girls in this room, Pheno B is still being hand-watered. She continues receiving her own feeding schedule, allowing me to make adjustments specifically for this phenotype while observing how she develops before eventually joining the rest of the flowering program. Not every plant wants the same meal at the same time. Listening to that difference is part of becoming a better grower. 🍽️ Feeding While many of the flowering plants have already moved to a bloom-focused nutrition schedule, Pheno B continues following a transitional feeding program that supports both vegetative growth and the approaching flowering stretch. This week's feeding consisted of: • Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L • Terra Bloom – 1.8 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Roots – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L The nutrient solution remained stable with an EC of approximately 1.78 mS/cm and a pH adjusted to 6.02, providing everything she needs while allowing her to continue developing at her own pace. For now, there's no reason to rush any changes. Healthy plants tell you when they're ready. 🌡️ Environment Environmental conditions remained very consistent throughout the week. Daytime temperatures averaged around 29°C, with nighttime temperatures close to 25°C. Relative humidity settled around 60%, while atmospheric CO₂ measured approximately 693 ppm. These stable conditions continue providing an ideal environment for steady growth, allowing Pheno B to focus her energy on building structure before fully committing to flower. Consistency is often one of the most overlooked nutrients in any grow room. 📸 This Week Behind the Lens This week's photographs perfectly capture the personality of this phenotype. The side profiles reveal an incredibly stocky plant with thick stems and remarkably tight internodal spacing, while the close-up images begin showing the earliest hints of floral development hiding between vibrant green leaves. She's not stretching dramatically. Instead, she's quietly building a strong, compact framework that could eventually support some beautifully dense flowers. Sometimes the plants that make us wait the longest surprise us the most at harvest. 🔍 Looking Ahead I have a feeling this could be Pheno B's final week of vegetative growth. The first signs are there. She's beginning to hint that flowering is finally approaching, even if she's still taking things more slowly than the rest of the room. Over the coming week I'll continue with gentle leaf tucking, maintain the current feeding program, and simply let her dictate the pace. If she officially enters flower, the diary will naturally follow her into that next chapter. If she chooses to wait another few days... That's perfectly fine too. After all, one of the biggest lessons this project continues to teach is that plants don't grow according to our expectations. They grow according to their genetics. 💚 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure and sharing this journey with me. Whether you're here to learn something new, compare growing techniques, ask questions, or simply enjoy watching these different phenotypes develop, I truly appreciate having you along for the ride. Special thanks to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can document every success, challenge, and lesson. ? Zamnesia for these fantastic Blueberry Muffin genetics, which continue to showcase just how diverse two sister plants can become. 🌱 Plagron for supplying the nutrition that supports every stage of this grow, allowing each phenotype to receive exactly what it needs. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the consistent light that powers this entire project from seed to harvest. And finally... Thank you for taking the time to follow this adventure. Every comment, every question, every shared experience, and every bit of encouragement helps make these diaries something far greater than a simple grow log. Growers Love, and I'll see you next week... where we'll discover whether Pheno B finally decides it's time to join her sister in full flower—or reminds us once again that nature always keeps her own calendar. 🌱💚

3° settimana di fioritura sta sviluppando dei grandi fiori profumati,e compatti come poche

Day 36 Flower (Day 78) Today is the first day of week six of flower and on this glorious day, I went to war against the fungus gnats. By war, I mean watering each girl with 5 million Nematodes in 3 liters of pH 6.5 water. That should hopefully do the trick and get rid of the annoying little shits. I also experimented a bit more with bud photography and this time I used an LED ring flash. The next step is to shoot during the dark period so I don't get any supplemental light from the grow lights. That was pretty much it today as it is mostly just coasting along at this point in the grow. Day 37 Flower (Day 79) The left girl got pampered with a new light today. Let's see if those extra photons can help her fatten up. She also got a CO2 bag to help her to soak up all those juicy photons. The right girl on the other hand just got her daily watering. Today with 3 liters at pH 6.6. Day 38 Flower (Day 80) All I did today was to give the right girl 3 liters of pH 6.5 water and started brewing some compost tea to feed tomorrow. I used a simple recipe this time with just some worm castings and molasses to increase the microbial activity, as well as a bit of neem meal for some additional nutrition but also to help against pests. The fungus gnats in the tents are almost gone. The nematodes took care of the gnat larvae and the yellow sticky traps have been catching the adults. Day 39 Flower (Day 81) Super chill day. I just gave each girl 3 liters of compost tea at pH 6.2. Done. Day 40 Flower (Day 82) I gave 3 liters of pH 6.5 water to the right girl and supported some of her branches as they're getting heavy with buds. Boom! Day 41 Flower (Day 83) Today I gave each girl 3 liters of pH 6.5 water. The gnats look to be defeated for now. I can't see any in the tents and the yellow sticky traps are empty. Day 42 Flower (Day 84) The last day of the sixth week of flower and all is going great in the tents. The heatwave we were having went away, which kind of sucks on a personal and social level, but it's great for the girls as the tents were swelteringly hot. The left girl is 103 cm tall and didn't grow anything this week. She has started to fatten up a bit now since I installed a more powerful light, but she is still lagging far behind the right girl. I'm interested to see if she is only lagging behind in time and will fatten up eventually, or if her ordeal has stunted her flowers, resulting in a bunch of larf. Time will tell. Either way, it will be a learning experience. The right girl also didn't grow vertically this week (thankfully!). Her 123 cm is tall enough to be dangerously close to the lights. She is fattening up nicely but still some time to go before she is done. I haven't checked any trichomes yet but should probably start checking next week. Today was another chill late-flower day, I just gave the left girl 2 liters of pH 6.7 water, and the right got 3 liters at pH 6.5.

My biggest mistake a hard trim and stretching with in PhD nutrients and to too it off I lowered the light ... Wow she got fried and messed up hard she is just starting to look better today and am happy that she is a fighter or else I would not be moving forward still .. dam my other plants are fine only this one took the brunt of it all lesson learned I guess .. here's to looking better next week in her new tent for flowering can't wait excited ...
