Greetings, fellow growers and cosmic adventurers! As we bid farewell to Week 10, we find ourselves at the culmination of an extraordinary journey with our beloved Apolo F1. Join me as we embark on a retrospective voyage through the highs and lows, the triumphs and challenges, of this cosmic odyssey. Our journey with Apolo F1 began ten weeks ago, a small seedling filled with potential and promise. From those humble beginnings, she grew and flourished under our watchful gaze, unfurling her leaves and reaching for the stars with each passing day. Through meticulous care and nurturing attention, we witnessed her transformation into a true botanical queen. Throughout her growth cycle, we employed various techniques to coax the best from our cosmic companion. From LST to topping, we shaped and sculpted her canopy, encouraging lateral growth and maximizing light penetration. As a result, Apolo F1 flourished, her branches reaching skyward in a testament to the power of cultivation and the wonders of nature. Central to Apolo F1's journey was the nourishment provided by Aptus Holland, our steadfast companion and sponsor. With their nutrient lineup, we crafted a symphony of minerals and organic compounds, tailored to her specific needs at each stage of growth. From seedling to harvest, Aptus Holland's nutrients fueled her cosmic voyage, ensuring robust health and abundant yields. And now, the moment we've all been waiting for: the harvest. With bated breath and eager hands, we carefully snipped each bud from the canopy, marveling at their dense, resinous beauty. Apolo F1 had exceeded our wildest expectations, her compact stature yielding a bounty of cosmic goodness. As she hangs upside-down, her buds curing in the cool darkness, we reflect on the journey that brought us here—a journey filled with wonder, growth, and boundless possibility. Before we bid adieu, let us extend heartfelt thanks to Royal Queen Seeds for crafting the genetic marvel that is Apolo F1. Their dedication to excellence has brought joy and inspiration to growers around the world, and we are grateful for their contributions to our green adventures. Likewise, a shoutout to Grow Diaries and the entire community for their unwavering support and camaraderie. Together, we have cultivated a garden of dreams, and the harvest is sweeter for it. As we gaze upon Apolo F1, our cosmic queen, we are filled with a sense of pride and accomplishment. She is more than just a plant—she is a testament to the power of cultivation, the wonders of nature, and the boundless potential of the human spirit. Until we meet again, may your gardens flourish and your green adventures be ever cosmic.

💜 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno B Week 5 | Small in Height, Big in Character Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of my favourite parts of running a multi-phenotype hunt is watching each plant develop its own personality. Today’s spotlight belongs to Purple Haze – Pheno B, a plant that may not be the tallest in the room but is certainly one of the fullest. While her sister has been reaching for the sky with long internodes and elegant structure, this lady has chosen a completely different path. She’s staying compact. She’s staying bushy. And she’s absolutely beautiful because of it. ⸻ 🌱 The Journey So Far For anyone joining this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed method. Instead of allowing a traditional vegetative period, every seed was placed under a 12-hour light / 12-hour dark cycle from the very first day. The objective is to compare how different genetics—and even different phenotypes from the same variety—express themselves when grown under identical conditions. Every plant shares: • The same environment • The same lighting • The same feeding schedule • The same climate • The same care The only thing changing is the genetics. Purple Haze Pheno B is another perfect reminder that even sisters can grow into completely different individuals. ⸻ 🌿 A Compact Beauty Standing at around 69 cm, she’s just slightly shorter than her sister, but the difference in structure is immediately noticeable. Rather than stretching upwards, she’s invested her energy into building a dense, leafy canopy packed with healthy growth. She’s become one of the bushiest plants in the room. Every branch is surrounded by large, vibrant fan leaves that give the plant a full and vigorous appearance. Instead of chasing height, she’s building substance. It’s a completely different expression of the same genetics, and it’s fascinating to watch. ⸻ 🍃 Leaf Tucking to Open the Canopy With such dense growth, this week focused heavily on leaf tucking. Instead of removing healthy foliage, large fan leaves were carefully repositioned to expose developing branches underneath. This simple technique improves airflow while allowing more light to reach the future flowering sites without sacrificing valuable photosynthetic surface. The result is a plant that remains lush and healthy while giving every branch the opportunity to develop. Sometimes patience and gentle guidance achieve more than aggressive pruning. ⸻ 🌸 The First Steps Into Flower Although she’s a little behind some of the other ladies in the room, she’s now clearly entering that exciting transition between vegetative growth and flowering. Fresh pistils are beginning to appear. New growth has changed shape. The tops are starting to build. Whether we call it pre-flower or the very beginning of flower, the important part is that she’s moving forward beautifully. There has never been any rush in this project. Every phenotype follows its own pace, and that’s exactly what makes documenting each one so rewarding. ⸻ 💧 Hand-Fed With Care Unlike some of her neighbours, this Purple Haze is not growing in an AutoPot system. Every watering is done by hand, allowing me to closely monitor her development and adjust as needed. Current nutrition includes: • Terra Grow • Terra Bloom • Pure Zym • Sugar Royal • Power Roots • Power Buds • pH adjustment for optimal nutrient availability She’s responding very well to the feeding program, maintaining deep green foliage, healthy growth, and plenty of energy as she begins her flowering journey. ⸻ 🌡️ Stable Conditions, Happy Plants Like every plant in this room, Purple Haze Pheno B continues growing under carefully controlled environmental conditions. Current grow room conditions include: • Day temperature: 31.1°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 72% • Solution temperature: 24.2°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 636 ppm Maintaining consistent environmental conditions allows every phenotype to express its own natural characteristics without unnecessary external variables influencing the results. ⸻ 📷 This Week’s Gallery This week’s photographs really capture the personality of this phenotype. The studio shots showcase her compact, rounded structure, while the close-ups reveal healthy new growth emerging from every corner of the canopy. The overhead photographs make it easy to appreciate just how dense she’s becoming, with broad fan leaves creating a thick blanket of vibrant green. The leaf-tucking work is also clearly visible, opening small windows of light throughout the plant and encouraging future flowering sites to develop evenly. The room updates continue documenting the environment shared by all the ladies in this project, helping tell the complete story behind the grow. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead The next couple of weeks should be incredibly interesting. Now that she’s entering flower, I’m curious to see whether she’ll begin stretching like her sister or continue building this wonderfully compact architecture. Either outcome would be exciting. Right now, she’s developing exactly the way a healthy, vigorous plant should. The foundations are there. Now it’s time to see how she transforms them into flowers. ⸻ 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Every diary tells a different story, and sharing the unique personality of each phenotype is one of the most enjoyable parts of this journey. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing an incredible platform where growers from around the world can learn, inspire one another, and document every stage of their grows. Zamnesia for providing the genetics that make this phenotype hunt possible. 🌱 Plagron for supplying the nutrition supporting these plants from seed to harvest. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light that powers this room every single day. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable environment throughout the entire project. And finally, thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, asking questions, and sharing this adventure with me. Every phenotype deserves its own moment to shine, and Purple Haze Pheno B is proving that sometimes the biggest personalities don’t always belong to the tallest plants. Growers Love and her story is only just beginning. 💜🌿

girl, from the beginning she was watered with water from the tap, the value of which is almost 350ppm. and a lot of lime, which prevents me from growing it bigger, but I'm happy with the result :) it's a small pot and only 50 w :) the flowers look very beautiful and sticky :) super ​

Finally time has come to chop down plants 1&2. They look ready and trichomes are mostly cloudy with some embers. Both plants weight 750 grams as whole. I would assume there is around 30-40 grams dry on each, but we would have to dry cure and than return with results. 3rd plant can probably go for another week, she looks like she can get her buds bigger, also still many many white pistils. She is looking very promising with very long buds (: 3rd plant chopped after 1 week, weighs 500 grams wet as whole. Joining the 2 other girls in the closet

The buds get bigger and bigger ... The perfume, even if contained for the low humidity, is beautiful sweet mixed to that similar to the resin of the conifers. as I had foreseen, the plant was destined not to grow much and so it was I was smart to start with a nice LST so as to keep the plant low and so to make all the tops swell .. shortly I put the video All in all a beautiful plant that will surely give me satisfaction

08/21/2018 Day 1 week 2 of flower. Last bit of supercropping, keep the canopy low as possible 08/22/2018 #5 is the only 9 fingered leaves plant, all other GTH plants have 5 & 7 finger leaves, #5 took 3 clones she's my keeper of this batch. She is very diesely citrus,musky smell.can smell her at 90". #4 similar smell not as much stink. #3 minty chlorophyll smell. #2 orange,citrusy,mint. Ps. Gonna hit a selected branch or 2 of GTH #5 with mystery cookie males pollen I saved from earlier pollen harves. (week 19 mystery cookie grow) & some 2017 cherry pie pollen.( See Breeding Project, pollen test)@growdiary. #1 most similar to #2.rubs Smells from stem rubs on #1#2#3#4 , #5 no stem rubs needed she straight up stinks.👊🔥🚀⛽♨️

Purple Chill aka Penny was easy to grow. She was medium height 26 inches. Stem structure was weak. Many stems bent (repaired with splints and masking tape) and some broke off. She suffered from heat stress and also showed cal-mag deficiency.
