What up grow fam. Week 3 up on these girls. At the moment they're a little upset with me. I went away for a few days so I over watered hoping they'd be alive when I return. They're still alive but sure upset and showing it. I did a defoliation taking the bigger fan leafs off to allow some more light to the lower branches. Also I don't usually put them under full power of my light until about week 5 but I did to see how they'd do and though they're stacking super tight, I think I probably did more harm then good. I'll baby them and see if they'll bounce back. All in all Happy Growing

🌿 Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B | Week 5 (Early Flower) 🌱 A Different Personality, the Same Strong Foundation One of the reasons I enjoy phenotype hunts so much is that even when two plants share exactly the same genetics, environment, and care, they still find their own way to express themselves. Frosted Guava Pheno B is proving exactly that. Growing alongside her sister inside the 8×8 Adventure, under the same 12/12 From Seed experiment, she has chosen a slightly different path. While Pheno A developed into a broader, more evenly spread canopy, this lady has remained a little more compact and slightly shorter, standing at 88 cm, with a beautiful upright structure that feels elegant and incredibly well organized. Different personality. Same healthy foundation. And she’s looking absolutely fantastic. ⸻ 🌸 Week 5 – A Beautiful Transition into Flower The flowering stretch is beginning to slow, and the plant is now directing more of her energy toward what really matters—building flowers. Despite being the smaller sister, there is nothing small about her health or vigor. She has developed strong branching, excellent stem thickness, and a wonderfully open architecture that allows light to travel throughout the entire plant. Looking at her from the side, every branch seems to have found its own space. Looking from above, the canopy remains balanced, symmetrical, and full of promising flowering sites. She carries herself with confidence. ⸻ 🌿 Training & Structure Like the rest of this project, the focus has never been on forcing the plant into shape. Instead, careful Low Stress Training, gentle branch positioning, and occasional leaf tucking have allowed her natural structure to reveal itself. This phenotype responded beautifully. Rather than becoming extremely wide, she developed a more vertical framework while still maintaining excellent branch spacing and airflow. Every flowering site now enjoys plenty of light exposure, and the open interior should help support healthy flower development throughout the coming weeks. Sometimes the best training is simply allowing the plant to guide you. ⸻ ? The Arrival of Flower This week, flowering is no longer something that’s coming. It’s here. Fresh white pistils now decorate nearly every growing tip, transforming what were once simple shoots into the first true bud sites. Those bright white hairs always bring a special feeling. They’re the first real promise of what’s ahead. The tops are beginning to stack, secondary branches are joining the party, and little by little, the architecture of the final harvest is starting to reveal itself. It’s one of the most exciting moments of every grow. ⸻ 🍃 Plant Health Health remains exceptional across the entire plant. The leaves display a rich, healthy green, with beautiful turgor and excellent posture from top to bottom. The stems continue strengthening, new growth remains vibrant, and the overall appearance is one of complete balance. She may be slightly more compact than her sister, but she radiates exactly the same vitality. Every photo reflects a plant that is comfortable, thriving, and fully focused on flowering. ⸻ 💧 Nutrition & Hand Watering Unlike her sister, this Frosted Guava isn’t connected to the AutoPot system. She has been hand-watered throughout the entire grow, receiving exactly the same nutrient solution and environmental conditions while allowing a little more hands-on interaction during irrigation. Current feeding: • Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L • Terra Bloom — 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • Power Roots — 1 ml/L • Power Buds — 1 ml/L Maintaining: * EC: 1.88 mS/cm * pH: 6.05 Even with different irrigation methods, she’s demonstrating just how consistent the Plagron program can be when paired with careful observation and stable environmental conditions. Different watering style. Same excellent results. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment This entire project continues benefiting from an incredibly stable growing environment. Current conditions: * Day temperature: 31.1°C * Night temperature: 25°C * Relative humidity: 72% * Solution temperature: 21°C * Root zone temperature: 21°C * CO₂: approximately 639 ppm Every phenotype inside the room experiences the same carefully managed climate, allowing their unique genetic differences—not environmental inconsistencies—to tell the story. That consistency is becoming more evident with every passing week. ⸻ 👀 Looking Ahead The stretch is nearly complete, and now the real excitement begins. Over the coming weeks, I expect these fresh pistils to multiply rapidly as each flowering site begins stacking into properly formed buds. Her slightly more compact stature could become a real advantage later in flower, potentially producing dense, well-supported colas throughout the canopy. The structure is there. The health is there. Now it’s time to let the flowers take over. ⸻ 🙏 Final Thoughts Frosted Guava Pheno B is a wonderful reminder that every plant deserves to be appreciated for what it naturally wants to become. She isn’t trying to compete with her sister. She simply expresses the same genetics in her own unique way. A little shorter. A little more compact. Just as healthy. Just as beautiful. Watching both Frosted Guava phenotypes develop side by side under identical conditions continues to be one of the most fascinating parts of this entire 8×8 Adventure. It’s these subtle differences that make every grow, every phenotype, and every harvest its own unique story.

Your encouragement makes every weekly update even more enjoyable to create. Until next week… Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💚

Defoliated them a little. Nothing special. I try to keep at least 3 or so big leaves below the net jfust in case there is an issue with the plant where it shows the symptoms at the lower branches first. I believe this way I'm faster to diagnose in case something does go wrong with feeding. Oh yeah, trellis is about 30cm (give and take) above the pots

###English below### Die Blüten werden dicker! Sonst, passiert nicht viel; Die ersten Blätter bleichen aus und die Pflanzen zeigen Phosphormangel (lila Stiele und ein paar braune Flecken) und evtl. auch Kaliummangel (gestreckte Blätter). Das vermute ich jedenfalls. Eventuell Mittlerweile betrachte ich die Trichome jeden Tag. Heute konnte ich die ersten Braunen entdecken. Es geht dann doch zu schnell. Heute ist die jüngste Pflanze 7 Wochen alt, die anderen beiden sind 2-3 Tage älter. Quick One benötigt laut Datenblatt 8-10 Wochen. War ich zu sparsam mit dem Dünger? Muss ich in Zukunft mehr auf den PH-Wert achten und evtl auch den EC-Wert ins Spiel bringen? Im Großen und Ganzen bin ich zufrieden mit meinem ersten Grow. Ich freue mich jetzt auf die Endphase (Wie lange wohl noch bis zur Ernte? 1-2 Wochen?) und in meinem Kopf spuken schon jede Menge Ideen für meinen nächsten Grow. Ich freue mich auf eure Anmerkungen. =) ###English### The buds become thicker! Otherwise, not much happens; the first leaves are fading and the plants show phosphorus deficiency (purple stems and a few brown spots) and possibly also potassium deficiency (stretched leaves). At least that's what I suspect. I now look at the trichomes every day. Today I spotted the first brown ones. It's going too fast after all. Today the youngest plant is 7 weeks old, the other two are 2-3 days older. According to the data sheet, Quick One needs 8-10 weeks. Was I too frugal with the fertilizer? Do I need to pay more attention to the pH value in future and possibly also bring the EC value into play? All in all, I'm happy with my first grow. I'm now looking forward to the final phase (how much longer until harvest? 1-2 weeks?) and I already have lots of ideas in my head for my next grow. I look forward to your comments. =) Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

OCT 14 - DAY 51 - She's starting to stack the buds tight and fat. great fun!

this plant surprised me, its flowers became dense and heavy, much more than its mother's. The yield was much better than I imagined. I am really satisfied. I had never cloned an autoflowering plant and that sounds cool.

Hey all! Sorry for the delay! And this is it, the last week! Pistachio was cut a little earlier than Matcha because I wanted to give her a little more extra time to allow her to mature a little more, but sadly I couldn't give her too much time since most of her trichomes were already starting to oxidise (which might sound appealing to some, but not so much for me). Still, I think the time given was enough! Thanks to semi-flush I gave to my girls I also managed to see what was happening to Matcha! The poor girl was suffering for so long! Anyway, my next update will contain the harvest information regarding my ladies! Thanks!

Here’s where I’m upto guys, I’m really now not sure what to do next, The canopy is pretty even, there some strong branches and a healthy amount of bud sites. Can anyone advise...? Please :)

Plants are now what appears in Week 4 of flower, even though the natural light cycle is still above 14 hours per day. It’s likely that the streak of cloudy mornings over the past couple of weeks has contributed to the transition by simulating shorter effective light periods.. that in addition to going from indoor to outdoor Nutrient Activity: • Started the week with a cap mag-only feeding to address ongoing signs of magnesium deficiency. • Later in the week, applied a strict Epsom salt feeding at 1 tsp per gallon, one dose per plant. I also moved my watering schedule from late in the evenings too early morning and midday to address a potential cold shock. Observations: • Minor yellowing remains present, particularly in the older leaves. Still leaning toward a magnesium deficiency as the primary cause. • Toward the end of the week, tip burn began to appear, likely due to nutrient buildup from trying to aggressively correct the deficiency. It’s a delicate line right now between resolving deficiencies and avoiding overfeeding. ⸻ Next Steps / Adjustments: • Reduce feedings to no more than twice per week going forward to minimize the risk of nutrient burn. • Monitor new growth and bud development closely for any signs of stress or improvement. • If tip burn continues or worsens, consider a mild flush to rebalance the root zone. If the yellowing stabilizes and tip burn is contained, I’ll resume light feeding adjustments in the following week.

Je commence le rinçage, j'arrive au bout 😁 encore 10j environ 😁😁😁 Une longue attente ( 16 semaine !!! )

Quité la malla porque me costaba un mundo poder regar de manera correcta además de que el tallo central que salió doble de una de las nenas estaba comenzando a doblarse por el peso, por ende tuve que entrar a amarrarlo a un tutor para poder tener la precaución de que no se fuera a caer. El color y olor es maravilloso. Seguimos con este crecimiento ...

La Runtz tiene toques leves de color rosado supongo que de la Gelato, tenemos dos phenos que pinta. Muy bien farmers Pcg de momento nunca me a fallado!💪🏻

Start of week 3 looking good starting to get frosty fan leaves which has never happened in my soil grows so this is very interesting. Definitely enjoying the ease of this system it's almost annoying how easy it is. And floraflex has been a dream of a fertilizer holds pH very well not chasing the pH constantly. All I do is top off 33% strength nutrient solution once a week, 33% strength silica calmag and hydroguard once a week then top off with just regular pH tap water. Water from my tap is 98 ppm so I'm not worried about getting a ro system.

Signs of swelling, & smell is picking up. Lots of nice-looking colas between these 3 gals. -Need to start bringing up my defoliations / canopy a little bit. More bottom larf than preferred, and it just forces me to pull them later anyway. ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me! Thanks for stopping by growmies! 🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏

Hi all👨‍🌾👋 Welcome to my another week update Hope everyone keeping well 🧑‍🌾 Week 7 Mar 15 - Mar 21 Another easy and pleasant week. Girls are super healthy and strong. It's seems that both will go full purple 😁 absolutely love it 😍 On Mar 17 Selective defoliation, training on branches and watering with bloom nutes. 7 ltrs beetwen both. Small runoffs with perfect 6.5 ph. Didn't notice any signs of stress. Girls bounced back within an hour. Second watering on Mar 21 7ltr beetwen both. Light dimmer at 65 watts. Humidity at 45% on avg when lights on and 50-55% when off. Really enjoyable grow this one. Almost no work around as no issues at all. Pure joy to watch how these grils growing 😁🧑‍🌾 Thank you very much for all your likes, follows and comments. 🙏💚❤️💜 Wishing you all amazing rest of the week✨🍀 Peace and love brothers and sisters 👨‍🌾✌️💚 Stay tuned for new week update soon Links https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/TROPICANA-COOKIES-AUTO https://www.biobizz.com/ https://fishheadfarms.com/

Day 78 - pheno 1 was cut down, id normally hang dry the whole plant but decided to do it in branches instead. Second pheno has been left in darkness as i haven't had the time to cut. Pheno one is hung up and drying.. Room Humidity 60/60. As soon as she's dry enough I'll finish trimming her up. Then put them into jars. Might use boveda 60% packs but I'll see. Smells strong! Will post a harvest when both plants have been dried fully an in jars. Hope you enjoy the videos and pictures. Stay tuned.

Start of week 6 flower. She’s pretty much on cruise control. Did a light defoliation, probably the last one until harvest. Noticed my ph pen has slightly been off and I’ve been slightly alkaline in my solution. Recalibrated and hit er with a heavy feeding and her normal but also added some cronk nutrients this week just to see if she responds. Overall, she’s starting to get funky, sugar leaves are sticky and really smelling of fruit loops. See ya next week

Week 6........... Getting frosty Edit: on day 41,I already have amber but it's still packing on weight. I don't know what to do at this point.
