Hulkberry has continued to develop big fat buds, which are becoming frosty! The leaf situation is not looking pretty. I had taken down my Northern Lights, which was really large, and decided to rearrange the tent. I noticed that the worst leaves were all on the side of the plant closest to the lights. She has much more space now and hopefully will manage to finish out nicely. She is still feeding heavily and needs to be watered several litres a day or so. Here is what I fed her this week: 10.6.25: The plant was watered with 6ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.2. I added per 6.5 litres; ♡ 7ml Ecothrive Trace ♡ 1/4 TSP Sea K(elp) PPM: 605 PH: 6.2 I decided to feed each plant separately and mix it up in the 2l jug. 12.6.25: I watered with 4L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 and containing the following nutrients per 6.5 litres; ♡ 7ml Ecothrive Trace ♡ 1/2 Tsp Ecothrive Biosys PH: 6.4 PPM: 890 14.6.25: I watered with 6L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 and containing the following nutrients per 6.5 litres; ♡ 7ml Ecothrive Trace ♡ 1Tsp Mega Crop Part A by Greenleaf Nutrients PH: 6.4 PPM: 890 15.6.25 I gave 5l of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.2 with the following nutrients; ♡ 12ml Ecothrive Flourish PPM: 463 PH: 6.2 17.6.25: I watered with 4.5L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 and containing the following nutrients per 6.5 litres; ♡ 1Tsp Ecothrive Biosys PH: 6.3. PPM: 436 Thanks for following along 😊🍃✌️💚🤞

Trotz des doch heftigen LST und toppen der Pflanzen, entwickeln sie sich sehr gut, auch die G Donuts erhölt sich, wird aber nicht sehr Groß werden, diese sollte man also einfach wachsen lassen. Die Mango G entwickelt sich wie erwartet nach dem toppen, durch ihre Runtz Genetik ist dies auch kein Wunder, haben doch bis jetzt alle Runtz bei uns einen Boost erlebt nach dem Toppen. "Despite the heavy LST and topping, the plants are developing very well. The G Donuts is also recovering, but won't grow very tall, so it's better to just let that one grow naturally. The Mango G is developing as expected after topping; with its Runtz genetics, that's no surprise, as all the Runtz we’ve had so far have seen a boost after being topped.

This week was a bit stressful. I was trying to identify the nutrient excess/deficiency. I think i narrowed it down to calcium deficiency, but these symptoms could also be a side effect of potassium excess (but what I gathered from my research, there is a very slim chance of this). Anyway I started to add CalMag to my regular waterings and they're showing some correction. I'll probablly water them with water, CalMag and lower than recommended amounts of nutrients for a day or two just to make sure. I had them on a 12/12 light cycle for 4-5 days, they've streched and risen up, which was what I wanted. They now on a 16/8 cycle.

Como estáis familia, yo estoy bien entre buenos humos , actualizo siguiente semana de cookies gelato, un gran híbrido y es que esta variedad de royalqueenseeds ya recibieron su lavado de raíces y comenzaremos con estrés hídrico. Las proximas semanas solo regaremos con agua con Ph regulado entre 5,9 y 6,1 , y en cada riego reduciré la cantidad de agua. Lo denominado estrés hídrico. . La humedad esta al 45% la temperatura está entre 21/25 grados , y como siempre el ph , ya que es de lo más importante,está en 5,8/6,0. . Ya retire todos los abonos de la marca AgroBeta. . Hasta aquí todo familia 🕸️ , un saludo y buenos humos fumetillas💨💨💨.

Final week before chop. She is looking and smelling incredible at this point.

Swolling like crazy

Esta semana seleccionamos las plantas más adelantadas de nuestro cultivo, para colocarlas bajo la nueva luminaria Led LazerLite Pro 720 de The Pure Factory, con la potencia ajustada al 50%. Miramos de que las cuatro variedades estén representadas bajo el led y bajo las lamparas HID, de esta forma podremos ver las diferencias entre los dos sistemas. Seguimos con nuestra rutina de fertilización para la fase vegetativa Grow Soldier + Green Mystic by JUJU Royal y CALMAG de BioBizz. Al final de la semana, cambiamos el ciclo lumínico para pasar a 12/12 Floración.

Both plants in flower and still showing great growth. I added a 20” Flower Power UV bulb @20”~ from the tops set for 30 minutes at the moment, I plan on raising it to 1hr total time over the next week as long as I don’t see leaf burn from it. Currently getting 1.5 gallons of water every 3rd day and alternating with fertilizer. I added a fan to draw more cool and less humid air in the tent and saw a nice drop in temp from 80 to 76~ during the day and 68 at night. Left plant is really compact but a shit ton of healthy bud sights are showing should be a great yield from it! Smells like sweet citrus when you first open the tent 😍 Till next time 😶‍🌫️🤟🏼

Well the last week the plant has started to show some amber trenchomes and as of today I'm seeing roughly 25% amber on the lower section of the plant. So today I start flushing. I know a lot of people say you don't have to flush but I disagree when it comes to hydro systems. Soil I get it trying to flush out all the nutrients is technically "impossible", I still do. But with hydro your plant has been directly absorbing the nutrients from the water with zero buffers like soil or coco and I find you can really taste it when you smoke it if you don't do a proper flush. I use the grotek final flush blueberry myself. The 500ml bottle I picked up a year ago when I did my blueberry has lasted a long time lol. My aerogarden grow box is going to be down for 2 weeks when this is done this grow. Got to make a few minor tweaks and then it'll be back up. Happy growing everyone

💜 Purple CousKush Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 12 ✨ The Glamorous Girl Keeps Evolving — And I Still Have No Idea Where She's Going Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And Purple CousKush Pheno A... Well... She's still doing her thing. 😂💜 She's still beautiful. She's still growing. She's still developing. She's still claiming her space. And honestly? I still have absolutely no idea where this girl is going. 😂 And I love that. Because at this stage, I don't want to force an answer onto her. I don't want to decide what she should be doing. I don't want to create some imaginary finish line and try to push her toward it. I'm simply watching. And this girl is evolving fast. Very fast. She's changing. She's developing. She's becoming more and more interesting every time I look at her. And somehow... she still manages to look absolutely gorgeous while doing it. 💜🌸❄️ ──────────────────────── 💜 SHE'S STILL CLAIMING HER SPACE ──────────────────────── One thing that really stands out to me this week is that she continues to claim her space. She's not the biggest plant in the room. She's not trying to become one. But she has established herself. She has her own structure. Her own presence. Her own personality. And when you look at her now, you don't see a plant that is simply occupying a corner. You see Purple CousKush. 😂💜 She's there. She's established. She's flowering. She's evolving. And she's becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. That's something I really enjoy about her. She doesn't need to dominate the entire room to have presence. She simply needs to be herself. And she's doing that beautifully. ──────────────────────── ✨ STILL BEAUTIFUL. STILL A MYSTERY. ──────────────────────── This girl is keeping me guessing. 😂 I genuinely don't know where she's going. And normally, by this stage, you start getting a pretty good idea of how a plant is going to finish. But Purple CousKush Pheno A? She's still giving me: "Wait and see." 😂💜 And I'm perfectly happy with that. The flowers are developing. The structure is evolving. The plant is changing. She's continuing to move forward. And every time I think: "Okay, now I understand where this is going..." she gives me another little surprise. That's what makes phenotype hunting so much fun. You can have an expectation. You can have a breeder description. You can have an idea in your head. But eventually... the plant gets the final word. And this girl clearly isn't finished talking. ──────────────────────── 🌸 EVOLVING FAST ──────────────────────── This is probably the biggest thing I notice this week. She's moving. And she's moving quickly. The plant is continuing to develop at a pace that makes me want to keep checking her every time I walk into the room. The flowers are progressing. The overall structure is becoming more defined. And the whole plant is starting to feel increasingly mature. We're not watching a static plant anymore. We're watching a plant actively changing. And that's exciting. Because this is the part of the journey where small differences from week to week can become really interesting. A flower looks a little different. A branch fills out. The overall silhouette changes. The plant starts carrying itself differently. And suddenly you realize: "Yep... she's moving." 💜🌸🔥 ──────────────────────── ❄️ AND THE FROST IS STILL RIDICULOUS ──────────────────────── Of course... we cannot talk about Purple CousKush without talking about the frost. 😂❄️💜 She's still an absolute little resin factory. The flowers continue carrying that beautiful frosty appearance. And every time the camera gets closer... there's more to discover. From a distance, you see beautiful flowers. Closer? You start seeing the details. Trichomes. Resin. Pistils. Calyxes. Sugar leaves. Textures. And that sparkle that makes you stop for another photograph. 📸❄️ This is one of those plants where the camera almost becomes part of the growing process. Not because it changes anything... but because it forces you to slow down and actually look. And when you look closely at this girl? She's gorgeous. ──────────────────────── 🌿 SHE'S NOT DONE TAKING SPACE ──────────────────────── There's also something I really enjoy about the way she's occupying her space now. She's established. She's filling what she wants to fill. She's developing within her own architecture. And she's not asking permission. 😂 She's basically saying: "This is my space. I'm keeping it." 💜👑 And honestly? Good. Because that's what we want to see. Not every plant needs to fill the same amount of space. Not every phenotype needs the same architecture. The interesting part is seeing what each one decides to do with the opportunity. Purple CousKush Pheno A has decided that her space belongs to her. And she's using it beautifully. ──────────────────────── 😂 THE "BORING" PART OF GROWING ──────────────────────── And now we arrive at one of my favourite contradictions in growing. We're at the stage where... there isn't actually much to do. 😂 And that's a good thing. The big work has already happened. The plants have established themselves. The structures are there. The flowers are there. The room is stable. The lighting is doing its job. The nutrition is being managed. The irrigation is being maintained. And now? We watch. That's it. Sometimes growing is incredibly exciting. You're training. You're shaping. You're making decisions. You're constantly moving things around. And then you reach this stage and realize: "Actually... the best thing I can do is leave the damn plant alone." 😂💜 So that's what we're doing. We're observing. We're documenting. We're enjoying. And we're letting Purple CousKush do the growing. ──────────────────────── ✂️ THE WORK IS MOSTLY DONE ──────────────────────── This is another important part of the current stage. I'm not trying to invent work. I'm not looking at her thinking: "What can I cut?" "What can I move?" "What can I change?" No. 😂 She's doing fine. She's developing. She's evolving. She's beautiful. So I'm letting her continue. The major structural work belongs to the earlier chapters. Now we're entering the part where the plant gets to show us the result of all that earlier work. And eventually... yes... the harvest work will arrive. That's when we'll have plenty to do again. 😂✂️🌿 But we're not there yet. For now... we watch the show. ──────────────────────── 💡 SAME ROOM. SAME SUN. DIFFERENT STORY. ──────────────────────── The lighting environment remains the same upgraded ecosystem we've been using throughout the room. The Future of Grow Black Series LEDs continue providing the main lighting. The two additional Black Series 600W fixtures remain part of the setup. After introducing the extra fixtures, we reduced the output to approximately 59% from the plug rather than simply running everything at maximum. That gives us approximately: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with intensity naturally changing according to plant height and position. And Purple CousKush? She's receiving the same photons as everyone else. Same room. Same artificial sun. Same general environment. Different genetic response. And that's exactly what makes this experiment so fascinating. The photons are available. The plant decides what to do with them. And this girl? She's clearly putting them to work. 💜☀️🌿 ──────────────────────── ⚗️ THE ROOM IS MOVING TOGETHER ──────────────────────── The nutritional program has also started moving into the next phase with the rest of the room. We're beginning to decrease the nutritional input as part of the normal progression toward the later stages. Nothing dramatic. Nothing specifically designed to force Purple CousKush into a particular timeline. Just the natural evolution of the room. At this stage, we're not trying to push the plants harder simply because we can. We're watching them. We're observing how they respond. And we're allowing the room to progress. Purple CousKush is evolving quickly... so we're listening to her. That's really the whole philosophy now. ──────────────────────── 🌱 SAME ROOM. DIFFERENT CLOCK. ──────────────────────── This is something the 8×8 Adventure has made incredibly obvious. Twelve plants. One room. One general ecosystem. And twelve different clocks. 😂 Some plants seem ready earlier. Some keep going. Some move quickly. Some take their time. Some suddenly accelerate. And Purple CousKush? She's definitely moving. But I still don't know exactly where her clock is going to stop. And I'm not going to pretend that I do. That's part of the fun. We're watching the plant instead of trying to make the plant fit our expectations. ──────────────────────── 📸 SHE'S STILL A BEAUTIFUL SUBJECT ──────────────────────── The camera is definitely enjoying this girl. 😂📸 The full-plant shots show how she's claiming her space. The closer shots show the flowers. And once we move in... the frost starts doing the talking. ❄️💜 There's so much detail packed into these flowers. The little structures. The resin. The pistils. The changing appearance. And every photograph becomes another little timestamp in her story. That's really what these diaries are about. Not just the final result. The journey. The evolution. The changes that happen between one week and the next. And Purple CousKush is giving us plenty of those changes. ──────────────────────── 💜 I STILL LOVE THIS GIRL ──────────────────────── I think this deserves to be said. I still love this girl. 😂💜 There's something about her. Maybe it's the frost. Maybe it's the structure. Maybe it's the fact that she keeps surprising me. Maybe it's simply her personality. Whatever it is... she's one of those plants I genuinely enjoy checking. I walk into the room. I look around. And eventually my eyes find her. "Okay... what are you doing today?" 😂 And usually the answer is: "Something." She's evolving. She's moving. She's changing. She's doing her thing. And I'm here for it. ──────────────────────── 🔍 WHAT AM I WATCHING NOW? ──────────────────────── Honestly? Everything. 😂 I'm watching the flowers. I'm watching the overall structure. I'm watching the frost. I'm watching the plant's pace. I'm watching the way she's changing. I'm watching for the signals that will eventually tell us when her journey is reaching the end. But I'm not trying to force the answer. That's important. I'm curious. Very curious. But I'm patient. Because this girl has already shown me that she doesn't necessarily follow the script. So why would I start writing the ending for her? Let her write it. 💜🌸 ──────────────────────── 😂 SHE'S BASICALLY SAYING "WAIT" ──────────────────────── If Purple CousKush could talk right now, I honestly think she'd look at me and say: "Why are you asking so many questions?" 😂💜 "I'll tell you when I'm ready." And you know what? Fair enough. I'll wait. Because the plant knows her own story better than I do. My job is to provide the environment. Observe. Document. Adjust when necessary. And then... get out of the way. That's where we are now. And this girl seems perfectly happy with the arrangement. ──────────────────────── 👑 CLAIMING HER SPOTLIGHT ──────────────────────── There are some plants that demand the spotlight. Purple CousKush doesn't exactly demand it. She just... earns it. 💜👑 She has developed into a beautiful plant with a personality all her own. She's still evolving. Still changing. Still moving quickly. Still covered in frost. Still claiming her space. And still keeping me curious. So this week... the spotlight belongs to her. Not because she's the biggest. Not because she's the fastest. Not because she's the most dramatic. Simply because she's Purple CousKush Pheno A. And that's enough. ──────────────────────── 🔮 LOOKING AHEAD ──────────────────────── And now? We wait. 😂 The next chapter could show us more maturation. More development. More changes in the flowers. More colour. More frost. Maybe she'll start showing us exactly where she's heading. Maybe she'll surprise me again. Honestly... I wouldn't be surprised either way. 😂💜 I'm simply going to keep watching. Keep photographing. Keep documenting. And let this girl decide when she's ready to turn the page. ──────────────────────── ✨ FINAL THOUGHTS — LET HER SHINE ──────────────────────── Week 12. Purple CousKush Auto. Pheno A. Still beautiful. Still evolving. Still claiming her space. Still covered in frost. And still keeping me guessing. 😂💜❄️ There isn't some massive dramatic event to report this week. And honestly? That's perfectly fine. The plant is doing exactly what she needs to do. She's growing. She's developing. She's moving quickly. She's becoming more mature. And she's continuing to show us who she is. Our job is becoming simpler. Observe. Maintain. Document. Wait. And eventually... harvest. But we're not rushing there. Not yet. For now... we're enjoying the show. And Purple CousKush is putting on a beautiful one. 💜🌸❄️✨ So let's give this glamorous girl the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's see where she decides to take us. Because I genuinely have no idea. And honestly? I wouldn't have it any other way. ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU ──────────────────────── Another week. Another chapter. And another beautiful reminder of why the 8×8 Adventure has become such a fascinating experiment. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share them with the community. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Purple CousKush genetics behind this beautiful girl. 💜🌸 Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of the adventure. 🌱 Thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting and for supplying the additional fixtures that have expanded the lighting capability of this room. 💡🙏 Thank you to LumiFlora for helping illuminate the deeper parts of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable behind the scenes. And, of course... thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every photograph. Every person who takes the time to stop and see what these girls are doing. It genuinely means a lot. And Purple CousKush Pheno A? She's still here. Still beautiful. Still evolving. Still claiming her space. Still keeping me guessing. And still absolutely deserving of her spotlight. 💜❄️🌸✨ So let's keep watching. Let's keep documenting. Let's let the plants tell us when they're ready. And let's enjoy this final part of the journey for what it is. The big work is mostly behind us. The harvest work will come later. For now... we watch the show roll out. And Purple CousKush? She's got the stage. 💜👑🌿 Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! 🌱💚💜✨

📆 Semana 6 ¡La cosa se pone seria! La Gorilla Cookies sigue a tope, y esta semana se ha notado un buen avance en la densidad de los cogollos. Las flores ya empiezan a coger cuerpo, y la producción de resina va viento en popa: las hojas cercanas a los cogollos están llenas de tricomas que brillan bajo la luz como si fueran escarcha. Sigo utilizando la línea de floración de XpertNutrients, que la planta está asimilando de maravilla. Mantengo el aporte de PK en niveles óptimos y hago pequeños ajustes de pH cuando toca. El riego sigue estable, sin excesos, y la respuesta de la planta está siendo excelente. Los Adlite están haciendo un trabajo brutal. La penetración de luz y la cobertura en todo el dosel están marcando la diferencia: se nota en cómo engordan los cogollos incluso en zonas más bajas. A nivel ambiental, todo bajo control: temperaturas suaves (23-25°C) y humedad bajando un poco más, ya cerca del 55%, para evitar riesgos en esta etapa tan crítica. En cuanto a aromas, se están intensificando con toques dulzones muy golosos, fondo terroso y ese puntito a galleta que promete una flor final de categoría. Los tricomas siguen lechosos, sin rastro de ámbar, así que seguimos en modo engorde. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

" Il reste quelques gens biens donc je garde espoire " PNL Wednesday It's fattening and ot seems that the bugs are not around anymore but it's just an illusion as a low population in still a population so I'm still at war. Thanks for your inputs , it's when you are in trouble that you're realising that you've got a whole community here for you 😘🤘👌🙌 Observations : Burning tips of the leaves due to an over feeding // Lower leaves that are fading and falling due to the age // Old signs of PH fluctuation As my last runoff check was a while ago I'm about to check these values today 👍🤘 Saturday The small Grapefruits, the one with the 420 pin , is doing so so . Two of the main buds have some bud rot due to the high humidity of the 2 last days ... high humidity due to the fact that I am working without air extractor and box half open but I've closed my box for less than. 48h and when zinc opened it the wall were full of water drops ( more than drops ) To help with that issue I've done a defoliation to have a better air circulation around the buds even if it's not recommended to do it that far in flowering. I've also observed the trichomes and they are mostly cloudy with a few brown and like 40% of clear trichs : surprising as the looks like she may need 1 extra week or 2 before cutting

At the end plants didn’t drink anymore. Don’t know why. Im very pleased with the results. Expected about 200g but got way more. Grow went well. Exept I should have ordered scrog et way before bc when it arrived it was too late and i couldnt train them anymore.

Sorry I missed a lot of updates. I was recovering from hand surgery then gd was not working right. She has a sweet earthy brown sugar smell. She did well for the limitrd care I could provide while I recovered. Was a good grow and I am excited to get to try her soon.
