First, so sorry again for the lame and horrible pictures. I lost the every single picture I took, the whole process :( and had to take a few just before harvest with a lame phone. This wasn't hard to train at all. Took all the heavy defolation I did like a champ. I just messed up with the nute intake. I can't ask more of this light so I'm quite happy with the results. I've learned so much since my first grow that I'm honestly happy with what I'm getting. I used topping in the fifth node, lst and net for scrog I later had to remove. Next time I'll repeat the same thing but I'll leave less branches and focus on getting them as fat as they can. Too many popcorn bud with so many branches, light can't go trough like with less branches. I could write so much about the smell of this one. At some point IT WAS vanilla, during the cutting process I moved it quite a bit and strangely, it was pure mint. Growing it, it was extremely sweet and a bit earthy, never leaving the vanilla touches. I'll stick with Barney's for a few more plants. It was a resistant and lovely plant to grow.

Well they germinated in record time for me..48 hours all 4 seeds. Medium is 50/50 coco/perlite. I watered the pots a day before planting. 250Ec. Been watering when pots feel light till runoff. Heat pad I had seemed to dry out pots quick. Temps and humidity are good. I switched from H&G coco to CANNA coco this round. It seems like cannas coco fibres are smaller and are holding more water then H&G. Therefore I believe I've been overwatering This entire week! FFS

Another Friday!

Scratch what I said at the end of last week pests are still around just had some bug fly at me and bite/sting me on the neck now a got a welt on my neck smh, not sure what the heck it was it was some sort of black bug maybe a thrip but I honestly have no idea, did another neem oil drench on the medium only and tomorrow I'm going to use a hydrogen peroxide mixture again that way I can also use it on the tops and undersides of the leaves as well. Some of the roots started to become exposed on the top soil so I added more an inch or two coco to cover the exposed roots. Another successful week I guess the plants aren't dead so onto week 9, Week 4 of flower

🌸 Pink Rosay Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 9 💗 Small Plant. Massive Presence. An Absolute Beauty. There are plants that are big. There are plants that are tall. There are plants that fill every available centimetre of a tent. And then... there are plants like Pink Rosay Pheno A. She's something different. She's small. She's compact. She's incredibly dense. And somehow, she manages to carry an absolutely ridiculous amount of flower for a plant of her size. Every time I look at her, I find myself thinking the same thing: How did all of that fit into this little plant? 😂💗 This girl continues to impress me. Not because she's trying to compete with the giants around her. Not because she's stretching toward the ceiling. But because she has taken her relatively small frame and turned almost every available centimetre into productive flowering structure. And honestly... few plants are like this. At least, few plants I've had the pleasure of growing. She's compact in size. But she is absolutely not compact in personality. 🌸 Week 9 – She's Still Radiant Pink Rosay continues moving beautifully through flowering. The plant remains around 111 cm, but that number really doesn't tell the story. Height is only one measurement. Look at the flowers. Look at the density. Look at the way the buds occupy the structure. Look at the proportion between the plant itself and the amount of flower she's carrying. That's where this girl becomes special. The flowering sites have developed into substantial, clearly defined flowers, with impressive structure and increasingly mature-looking resin coverage. The calyxes continue swelling. The pistils are changing as the flowers progress. And the overall appearance is becoming increasingly impressive. She's not simply producing flowers. She's packing them in. And she's doing it beautifully. 💗 Small Frame. Huge Flower-to-Plant Ratio. This is probably the characteristic I appreciate most about her right now. Pink Rosay has one of those structures where you can immediately see how much of the plant is dedicated to flowering. She's compact. But the flowers are large relative to the plant. The branches aren't disappearing into endless stretches of empty space. Instead, they're carrying substantial flowering structures throughout the canopy. The result is something I find incredibly satisfying to look at: a small plant with an enormous flowering presence. It's almost like someone took a much larger plant and compressed it. 😂 And that's exactly why I keep calling her special. You can find tall plants. You can find massive plants. But finding a plant that remains this compact while developing this much flower relative to her overall size? That's something I really appreciate. 🌿 The Beauty Is in the Structure The structure is another thing that continues catching my attention. She's dense, but she doesn't look chaotic. The flowers have their places. The branches support them. The foliage surrounds the developing buds. And the whole plant has that feeling of everything working together. There's a real sense of balance here. That's important. Because density by itself isn't necessarily impressive. A plant can be dense simply because everything is crowded together. Pink Rosay is different. She has organized density. Her compact structure has become a framework for the flowers rather than simply a mass of foliage. And after the selective defoliation we performed previously, the plant has continued developing beautifully. We didn't strip her. We didn't try to expose every single flower. We simply opened areas where necessary and then stepped back. And now... we let her do what she does best. Build flowers. ✂️ After the Defoliation – Now We Watch The selective flowering defoliation from the previous week has now become part of the story. Some foliage was removed where it was contributing to unnecessary congestion, while plenty of healthy leaves were deliberately left behind. That distinction remains important to me. I'm not interested in making a plant look naked. I'm interested in making the canopy functional. And Pink Rosay still has plenty of green. The remaining leaves are working. They're capturing light. They're supporting photosynthesis. They're feeding the developing flowers. And the plant is responding exactly how I hoped she would. So this week? No need to reach for the scissors again. She's beautiful. She's balanced. She's developing. Leave her alone. Sometimes cultivation is knowing when to intervene. Sometimes it's knowing when to stop. Right now, I think Pink Rosay is telling me very clearly: "I've got this." 😂💗 ❄️ The Flowers Are Becoming Serious The flowers are now entering a really exciting stage. They're no longer just developing structures. They're becoming proper flowers. The calyxes are becoming more pronounced. The pistils are beginning to change. The buds are gaining density and volume. And the resin continues to become increasingly visible. When you look closely at the photographs, there is so much happening. Every flower has layers. Pistils crossing through the developing structures. Calyxes stacking around one another. Sugar leaves emerging through the flowers. And resin covering the surfaces. This is where the plant starts becoming more than just a green plant under a light. The architecture you spent weeks watching develop is finally turning into the thing you've been waiting for. Flowers. And Pink Rosay is producing some beautiful ones. 📸 A Photographer's Dream This girl is also becoming incredibly enjoyable to photograph. Her structure gives you the wide shots. Her compact frame tells the story. But then you move closer... And suddenly the entire image changes. The flowers are full of texture. The pistils create those beautiful fine lines. The calyxes create layers. The resin catches the light. And the surrounding leaves provide that deep green background. It's one of those plants where I can understand why macro photography and growing became so connected for me. You can photograph the whole plant... and then spend another hour looking at one flower. There's always another detail. Another texture. Another little piece of biology happening right in front of the lens. And Pink Rosay is giving me plenty to photograph. 💡 Eating Photons The lighting system remains unchanged. The Future of Grow Black Series LED continues providing the primary overhead illumination, with the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting adding another layer of light into the lower portions of the garden. And Pink Rosay is clearly making use of the available energy. The plant has plenty of flower structure. The foliage remains strong. And the flowers continue progressing. This is another reason I like having different phenotypes growing together. The environment gives them the opportunity. But their genetics decide what they do with it. Some plants turn that opportunity into height. Some into branches. Some into enormous individual flowers. Pink Rosay seems to have chosen: "I'll just make everything count." And I love that. 🌿 The 8×8 Perspective When I step back and look at the entire 8×8 Adventure, Pink Rosay becomes even more interesting. There are plants around her that are significantly taller. There are plants that occupy much more physical space. There are plants that look enormous from across the room. And then there's this little powerhouse. Standing there at around 111 cm... covered in flowers. It's a perfect reminder that comparing plants purely by height doesn't make much sense. A plant's potential isn't measured by the ruler alone. It's in the architecture. The density. The flower distribution. The health. The efficiency of the canopy. And ultimately... what she gives you at the end. And Pink Rosay is giving me plenty of reasons to be excited. 💧 Feeding & Environment The current program continues consistently: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom — 2.2 ml/L 🌿 Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L ✨ Plagron Green Sensation — 1 ml/L 🍯 Plagron Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L ⚗️ Lemon Kick / pH adjustment as required Current recorded conditions: 🌸 Flowering: Week 9 📏 Height: 111 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 🌬️ CO₂: 529 ppm ? Pot size: 15 L 💦 Watering: approximately 1.4 L per plant / 24h Nothing dramatic needs changing. The plant is progressing. The environment remains stable. The flowers are developing. So we stay consistent and let the biology continue doing the work. 🌬️ Density Means Attention Because Pink Rosay is so compact and flower-dense, environmental management remains something I pay close attention to. The more compact the flowering structure becomes, the more important airflow and general cleanliness become. That's not unique to Pink Rosay. It's simply part of managing a dense flowering canopy. And this is also why the work we did previously wasn't simply cosmetic. Opening selected areas can give light and air better pathways through the structure. But again... there is a balance. I don't want to destroy the very thing that makes this phenotype special. Her density is part of her identity. So we're managing it rather than fighting it. 💗 Phenotype Spotlight – One of the Special Ones I think I'm finally comfortable saying this: Pink Rosay Pheno A is one of those plants that doesn't come around every day. Maybe I'm biased. Of course I am. 😂 I've been watching her develop for weeks. I've photographed her. I've watered her. I've watched her change. I've watched the flowers develop from tiny early structures into what we're seeing now. So yes... I'm attached. But even objectively looking at her structure, there's something unusual about the relationship between her size and her flowers. She's small. She's compact. She's balanced. And yet she's carrying an enormous amount of flowering structure for that frame. That's what makes her interesting. Not simply that she's beautiful. It's how she's beautiful. And that's the difference. 🔭 Where Is She Going? This is the question now. And honestly... I don't know. That's what makes it exciting. She's progressing quickly. The flowers are developing beautifully. The pistils are changing. The calyxes are swelling. The resin is becoming increasingly apparent. And the structure is already impressive. But there's still a story left to write. How much more will those flowers swell? How much more density will they gain? How will the resin develop? How will those compact colas finish? And ultimately... what will this little powerhouse look like when she decides she's finished? I'm very curious. Because if she continues on this trajectory... she could be something really special. ❤️ Final Thoughts – Let Her Shine Pink Rosay Pheno A has officially reached the point where I don't think I can call her simply "the small plant" anymore. She's small. Yes. But that's almost irrelevant now. Because look at what she's carrying. Look at the flower-to-plant ratio. Look at the structure. Look at the density. Look at the development. Look at those flowers. This is one of those plants where the ruler tells one story... and the camera tells another. The ruler says: 111 cm. The plant says: "And?" 😂 Because she doesn't need another 50 centimetres. She has already done an incredible job with the centimetres she has. She's compact. She's dense. She's balanced. She's beautiful. She's developing some seriously impressive flowers. And every week, I find myself liking her more. So this week, I'm not going to ask whether Pink Rosay might surprise us. I'm going to say something much simpler: She already has. And now I'm just curious to see how far she can take it. This little lady has earned her spotlight. Not because she's the biggest. Not because she's the tallest. But because she has managed to turn a small frame into something that feels absolutely enormous. Pink Rosay Pheno A. Small plant. Huge flowers. Beautiful structure. Exceptional presence. And one hell of a personality. 💗🌸❄️ 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for these beautiful Pink Rosay genetics. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutrition throughout the journey. Thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting. Thank you to Lumiflora for bringing the under-canopy lighting into this experiment. Thank you to TrolMaster for the environmental control. And, of course, thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure on GrowDiaries. Every phenotype has something different to teach us. Every plant writes a different story. And Pink Rosay Pheno A? She's writing one of my favourites. She's small. She's compact. She's absolutely packed with flowers. And she's becoming more beautiful every single week. So let's keep watching. Let's keep photographing. Let's keep learning. And let's give this little powerhouse exactly what she deserves: the spotlight. 💗✨ Until next week... Small frame. Huge flowers. Let her shine. Growers love and happy growing! 🌱💚🌸

This week has been great ,today is day 78 and the girls are just doin their thang , 1 looks ready for flush already and the rest look about another longer then flush for them aswell,, can’t wait to see how these girls finish out over the next couple of weeks 😍!! Y’all keep them eyes peeled an stay tuned for next week! Peace love an positive vibes to y’all Cheers.💨💨💨

She’s really filled out this week the plant looks really healthy and is green everywhere, the leaf stems are starting to get a red colouring

This week marks the final phase of flowering for both strains, and it’s been an incredible run. The colas are fully swollen, trichomes are mostly cloudy with around 10–15% amber, and the terpene intensity is off the charts. Every movement near the canopy releases that unmistakable scent — fruity, spicy, and heavy with resin. 24K Gold is showing her signature golden hues now. The buds are compact, sticky, and sparkling with trichomes. Pistils have mostly turned orange and curled in tightly, showing clear maturity. Gelato 33 looks equally stunning — thick, frost-covered buds with a creamy-sweet scent and purple undertones emerging under the lights. Her structure remained open enough to prevent mold despite the high density. Both plants handled the last nutrient increase (8 ml/L Canna Coco A+B) perfectly — no signs of stress or nutrient burn. From here, they’re transitioning into the flushing phase, allowing the remaining nutrients to fade out for a cleaner, smoother finish. Environmental conditions: • 🌡️ Temperature: 25.0–25.3 °C • 💧 Humidity: 52–53 % • 🌫️ VPD: 1.3–1.34 kPa • 💨 Airflow: Steady and dry for the final days This week’s update also includes defoliation and trimming before drying — the canopy has opened up nicely, and the buds are ready for harvest. The next entry will focus on flushing, fade, and drying results.

Continuing to use nutrients from 9 days ago. Mostly added back water to the tank to reduce the EC, as it was too high in my opinion. Going to try and milk another week out of the nutrients in the tank at the moment, as there are no obvious signs of deficiencies to note. As you can see, I have opted not to defoliate at all for this grow. So far I have only cut off two leaves just so I can get to my filler cap easily. I am doing a little supercropping here and there to level up the canopy. In just over a week they have grown from 51 cm to 93 cm. So a good 80% increase in height. An average of 2 inches of growth per day. If they grow similarly to my last crop, they should have just under 2 weeks stretching left to do. Happy new year!

Super easy trim✂️ The buds are super dense & sticky🤩 For the smell it’s cherry & blackcurrant with a gassy touch the Cherry Cola Diesel ⛽️🍒

Moin, Die 6. Blütewoche ist so gut wie vorbei, die Blüten fangen an sich von Tag zu Tag weiterzuentwickeln und mittlerweile erkennt man eine wirklich klassische Kush Struktur der Blüten, die eher länglich wachsen und weniger golfballartig . Die Blüten sind förmlich von Trichomen überzogen und es scheint sich ein, leicht süßliches Profil mit dominanter Kiefernnote als Geruchsprofil durchzustehen. Zum Glück ist es aber nicht mehr der Geruch an eingelegten Gewürzgurken sondern etwas erfrischend waldiges. Auch erinnert mich das Terpenprofil etwas an eine Gorilla Zkittlez. Ich überlege am nächsten Wochenende die Pflanze nochmal leicht zu entlauben, da nach der letzten Blütewoche doch noch viele neue Blätter die Lichtdurchdringung und die Luftzirkulation eindämmen. Ob ich das aber wirklich mache weiß ich selber noch nicht, da alles was mir zu luftig wird so oder so eingefroren wird. Dank der geringeren Hitze gibt es mittlerweile auch keine Temperaturprobleme mehr und mit circa 25-26 °C bin ich sehr zufrieden, die relative Luftfeuchtigkeit könnte etwas niedriger ein, das lässt sich ohne weitere Technik bei diesem Run aber nicht wirklich beeinflussen. Hey, The sixth week of flowering is almost over; the buds are continuing to develop day by day, and by now you can see a truly classic Kush bud structure and they’re growing more elongated rather than golf-ball-shaped. The buds are literally covered in trichomes, and a slightly sweet aroma with a dominant pine note seems to be emerging. Fortunately, though, it no longer smells like pickled gherkins but rather has a refreshing, woodsy scent. The terpene profile also reminds me a bit of Gorilla Zkittlez. I’m thinking of lightly pruning the plant again next weekend, since many new leaves have sprouted since the last week of flowering and are still blocking light penetration and air circulation. But I’m not sure yet if I’ll actually do that, since anything that gets too airy will be frozen anyway. Thanks to the lower heat, there are no longer any temperature issues, and I’m very happy with around 25–26 °C, the relative humidity could be a bit lower, but that can’t really be controlled without additional equipment during this grow cycle.

I was flushing all the plants since August 9. You can see in the videos with de microscope ( I really try my best, but it was pretty difficult) the trichomes looks cloudy and some of them looks amber. Maybe in the videos you can't see it because my hand was really shaky. August 17: all the plants were in dark. August 18: i cleaned all the plants, buds, leafs, everything..., spraying water to remove the rests of potasic soap. Today august 18, during the nigth, i'm going to harvest all the ladies. In the past 3 days i didn't watering the plants and the smell was stronger. August 19: Before dry -Critical Kush: 150g -Red dwarf: 60g -Syrup (2 plants): 270g -Lemon (4 plants): 570g

11/17 started the flush until harvest, plain well water with ph between 7.3 to 7.6. Half gallon a day This plant is medium size for the 6 in the tent. Buds are large and dense, gorilla is a great genetic for yield, i expect a surprise on yield given what I can see.

Flush week. Currently in day 5 of flush. I started the flush with 250ml of canna flush in 125 res for fresh water. After three days I topped the res up to 200 L diluting the flush mix down mid flush. Today I will be emptying out the canna flush mix and replacing it with fresh pH water for the rest of It's final week (4 days Till chop) 48hrs of darkness to be added on Friday It was fun doing my first diary on this. Moving forward I will try to add more content in the diary's to come ... NEXT UP HARVEST TIME

- Día 1 de la segunda semana de flora con riego foliar de calmag - Videos tomados día 2 de la segunda semana

I hung all the branches upside down in the closet. Thanks to the help of an air conditioner I keep the temperature at 23C and the humidity at 50%. When after a bending the branches will break (prematurely bend) then the drying will be complete and the tanning phase will begin. Initially I had problems with Ca and Mg deficiency, in fact the plant has grown less than the other, but I am still satisfied with the result. I usually don't weight buds when they are wet because it's just a waste of time. When they are dry I will update the diary with the precise weight. PS the same day I harvested my country rejected the decriminalization of cultivation of weed (referendum of popular origin). I want to say to my politicians: You will never stop me from doing what I love most. that said, see you soon for the upcoming updates😈
