Shes doing great but looks like something has been having a snack on her. I have some mantis eggs that should be hatching soon so Im not too worried and i think she will shrug this off once shes a little bit bigger and thicker leaves. Set up another water tank up closer to these for easy watering on a timer so i dont waste power and butn my motor out

So far so good with these girls my only complaint is the fact that I wish I had a bigger light but I will make this work until I can afford another one. Overall plants are healthy and are building thick branching. Gonna take down the wall and add another small light until I can afford a big one.

Hey guys :-) First of all I have to say that all 5 strains I have in the tent from Amsterdam Genetic are beautiful genetics 👍 . This week they were repotted into 8L fabric pots. When repotting, 2 g of Green House Powder Feeding Bio line were added per liter of substrate :-) . That's enough until the first flowers start 👍. Watering was done twice this week with 0.8 l each. Otherwise everything was cleaned and checked and fresh osmosis water was mixed. Stay healthy 🙏🏻💚 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://shop.greenhousefeeding.com/us/ 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this strain at : https://www.amsterdamgenetics.com/product/double-blue/ Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC. Add Cal / Mag to 0.4 Ec Ph with Organic Ph - to 5.8 - 6.4 MadeInGermany

The flowers seem to be filling in nicely. I have been feeding every other watering keeping the ph at 6.5. Not sure when to start flushing since these are the fast version keeping an eye on the trichomes.

Dump de lo que fue esta semana. Seguimos ajustando con lst la estructura que quiero y empezamos a la transición a flora. Esta semana será la última de vegetativo donde trataremos de sacar clones (esquejes) de ambas. Ya que he estado mirando videos y tomando información de cómo hacerlo, creo tener una idea de cómo hacerlo sin fallas en el intento. La próxima semana nos veremos realizando estos esquejes y veremos el avance de esta última semana. Recuerden que todo lo estoy haciendo de forma empírica y sin conocimiento previo. Todo ha sido con apoyo a videos de otros growers e información de distintas páginas. Gracias por estar aquí y compartir conmigo esta primera experiencia!

💜 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno B Week 6 | Growing at Her Own Rhythm Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of the greatest lessons this project continues teaching me is that plants don't read calendars. They don't know what week we're calling it. They don't compare themselves to the plant growing beside them. They simply follow the instructions written inside their own genetics. Purple Haze Pheno B has become the perfect example of that philosophy. While several of her sisters are rapidly building flowers, this beautiful lady has chosen a much more relaxed pace. She's not behind. She's simply growing at her own rhythm. And she's doing it beautifully. 🌱 The Beauty of the 12/12 Adventure For everyone joining this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed technique. Every seed was placed directly under a 12-hour light and 12-hour dark cycle from germination, allowing each phenotype to express its natural growth pattern without a traditional vegetative period. Every plant receives exactly the same opportunity. The same lighting. The same nutrition. The same environment. The same temperatures. The same humidity. The same daily attention. The only thing changing... ...is the genetics. And once again, genetics are telling a fascinating story. 🌿 Strength Before Speed Standing at approximately 85 cm, Purple Haze Pheno B has developed into a wonderfully vigorous plant. Her structure is strong. Her branches are sturdy. Her canopy remains full of healthy foliage. Her colour is exactly what every grower hopes to see. Deep green. Lush. Full of life. What makes this phenotype unique isn't what she's doing... It's what she's not doing. Unlike some of the other ladies, she hasn't rushed into explosive flower production. Instead, she continues investing energy into maintaining an incredibly healthy framework that will eventually support whatever comes next. Sometimes nature prefers to build the foundation before decorating the house. 🌸 Flowering... One Step at a Time If I compare this week's photographs with last week's, the difference isn't dramatic. And that's perfectly okay. Fresh pistils continue appearing across the plant. The growing tips are slowly beginning to change shape. Flower sites are forming. But she's progressing at a noticeably gentler pace than many of the other phenotypes in the room. Rather than worrying about that, I find it fascinating. This is exactly why I wanted to document every phenotype separately. Had these plants been growing individually, I might never have appreciated just how differently sisters can develop under identical conditions. Purple Haze Pheno B is reminding me that flowering isn't a race. Every genetic line follows its own timeline. 🍃 A Plant That Simply Looks Happy Sometimes the easiest plants to grow are the ones that ask for very little. This week there were no warning signs. No deficiencies. No excesses. No signs of stress. Just healthy leaves reaching toward the light and steady, consistent development. Leaf tucking has once again been the primary training method, gently opening the canopy without removing valuable fan leaves. This allows better airflow and improved light penetration while preserving the plant's natural ability to produce energy. She's rewarding that gentle approach with vigorous, healthy growth. 💧 Feeding With Patience Just because flowering is progressing slowly doesn't mean the plant needs to be forced. The feeding program continues supporting the transition naturally while allowing the genetics to dictate the pace. Current nutrition includes: • Terra Bloom • Power Buds • Green Sensation • Sugar Royal • Pure Zym • Careful pH adjustment for optimal nutrient uptake Sometimes the best thing a grower can do is resist the temptation to chase faster growth. Healthy plants know what they're doing. Our job is simply to support them. 🌡️ Consistency Builds Confidence Like every phenotype in this project, Purple Haze Pheno B continues benefiting from a carefully controlled environment. Current grow room conditions include: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • Solution temperature: 24°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 636 ppm Providing the same stable environment week after week removes unnecessary variables, allowing every phenotype to reveal its own unique character. And this lady certainly has plenty of character. 📷 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs tell a quieter story, but an equally beautiful one. The studio portraits showcase a wonderfully balanced plant with a dense canopy of healthy foliage and exceptional overall vigour. The close-up images reveal fresh white pistils slowly emerging from each growing tip, subtle reminders that flowering is progressing, even if it's happening at a more measured pace. Several photographs highlight the beautifully formed leaves and sturdy branching that have become defining characteristics of this phenotype. Sometimes the biggest changes aren't dramatic. Sometimes they're simply the quiet signs of a healthy plant confidently following its own path. 🔮 Looking Ahead I'm genuinely curious to see what the next few weeks bring. Will she suddenly accelerate and begin stacking flowers rapidly? Or will she continue this calm, methodical approach all the way through bloom? At this stage, either outcome would be exciting. One thing already feels certain. This phenotype refuses to be rushed. She's growing exactly when she's ready. And if experience has taught me anything... It's that patient plants often surprise you later. I'll happily let her write the next chapter in her own time. 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Projects like this constantly remind me that growing isn't about trying to make every plant behave the same way. It's about understanding that every phenotype has its own personality, its own rhythm, and its own way of expressing the genetics it carries. Purple Haze Pheno B may be taking the scenic route into flowering... But she's making every step look effortless. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a place where growers from around the world can share knowledge, document their journeys, and inspire one another. 🌱 Zamnesia for providing the incredible 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 every day of this adventure. 🌿 TrolMaster for maintaining the stable environment that allows each phenotype to express its true potential. And finally, thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, asking questions, and sharing this incredible journey with me. Every week reinforces the same lesson: Great plants don't all grow at the same speed. They simply grow when they're ready. Growers Love... and Purple Haze Pheno B is proving that patience is sometimes the most beautiful phenotype of all. 💜🌿

This past week I pushed the nutrient EC value to 2.8 these plants need it! Tomorrow is the first 12/12 light cycle, will be adding Si to help with internodal spacing. Chitosal definitely sparked growth, one more foliar application before I add it to the reservoir. Am excited to see flower formation this scrog is large. Timing will be improved next time by popping more seeds to guarantee germination.

🍒 Lemon Cherry Gelato — Week 10 (Week 6 Flower) 12/12 from seed | No veg | Full expression phase ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — From Seed to Structure This run followed the same philosophy: straight 12/12 from seed, minimal interference, maximum observation. From early on, these girls showed vigor, tight internodes, aggressive lateral growth, and a natural tendency to bush out heavily while still pushing vertical dominance. What we built over the weeks: • A dense, multi-layered canopy • Strong branching capable of supporting weight • Healthy root zone driving consistent uptake And now, in week 6 flower, everything is being converted into mass, resin, and expression. ⸻ 🌿 Defoliation Session — Opening the Beast This week was a big moment. You brought them into the studio and made a bold call: deep defoliation (fan leaves with stems removed) Leaving: • Bud sites fully exposed • New growth intact • Air channels opened through the entire plant This was not just aesthetic, it was functional: • Improved airflow through a very dense structure • Light penetration reaching lower and inner bud sites • Reduced humidity pockets inside the canopy With plants this bushy, this move shifts the system from crowded to optimized. They are now set up to focus energy directly into flowers. ⸻ 🌸 Calyxes & White Hairs — Flower Construction Mode Now we are seeing real flower formation. Calyxes are the core of the bud, each one a potential resin-packed structure. At this stage: • They are stacking tightly along the branches • Forming early bud density • Beginning to swell, but not yet at peak size White hairs (pistils) are everywhere, and that is exactly what we want. They signal: • Active reproductive phase • Continuous flower site expansion • Ongoing energy push into bud production Bright, fresh pistils means the plant is still building, still reaching, still producing. ⸻ ✨ Trichomes — Resin Factories Switching On This is where Lemon Cherry Gelato starts showing personality. We are now seeing: • Frost spreading across sugar leaves • Resin glands forming on calyx surfaces • Stickiness increasing day by day Functionally, trichomes are: • Protection from UV, pests, and environment • Chemical factories for cannabinoids and terpenes Right now they are mostly clear to early cloudy, meaning: • Terpene profile is starting to develop • Potency is rising, but not fully matured This is the production phase, not the ripening phase. ⸻ Nutrition — Driving Heavy Output These girls are feeding like monsters and your numbers show it. EC: 2.9 High, but clearly being handled without stress. Your stack: • Terra Bloom providing the PK backbone for flower development • Green Sensation enhancing density and metabolic efficiency • Sugar Royal supporting terpene expression and carbon flow • CalMag Pro maintaining structural integrity and transport under high demand • Power Buds boosting flower site activation and early stacking At this stage it is not about adding more, it is about delivering consistently. ⸻ ⚖️ pH Control — Unlocking the Feed With EC at 2.9, pH becomes even more critical. • pH around 6.5 is the sweet spot for soil bloom uptake • Lemon Kick helps bring the solution down naturally • pH Plus allows fine adjustments when needed This ensures nutrients are not just present, but available. High EC without correct pH means locked potential, and you are avoiding that perfectly. ⸻ 🌡️💧 Environment — Stable but Alive • Around 26°C • Around 60 percent RH • Strong, consistent light across the canopy Now the key detail is the leaf to air relationship, what you called leaf DPD. With dense plants, high transpiration, and external humidity support, you had a naturally balanced exchange between leaf surface and air. After defoliation: • Transpiration becomes more efficient • Microclimates are reduced • Gas exchange improves This supports stronger nutrient flow and better resin production. ⸻ 💧 Water & Environment Synergy • Water temperature at 18°C supports high oxygen availability and strong root metabolism • Outside conditions around 10°C and 84 percent humidity That external humidity is quietly helping stabilize your internal environment, making it easier to maintain balance without stressing the plants. Working with the environment, not against it. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect — Week 7 Flower Expect: • Noticeable bud thickening as calyx swelling begins • Pistils still active but clustering more densely • Trichomes moving further into cloudy • Terpenes becoming louder and more complex • Plants redirecting energy fully into flower mass Do not expect yet: • Final swelling • Significant amber trichomes • Heavy fade You are transitioning from build into early maturation, but not there yet. ⸻ 🤝 Shoutouts — From Grower to Growers Big love to: • The GrowDiaries platform for giving all of us a space to share • The community of growers exchanging knowledge and experience • The OG followers who have been here since day one • The new ones joining the journey • The supporters, the silent watchers, the loud ones, the skeptics, everyone has a place here And always: • The genetics behind this Lemon Cherry Gelato expression • The sponsors and partners supporting the process • The tools, lights, and environment making this possible ⸻ These girls are not just growing, they are performing. Week 6 flower is heavy, alive, and full of intention.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

First week went well, got two plants in coco coir and one in soil. One of the plants in potting soil came up a day after the other two but they’re doing fine
