2025-01-21 to 2025-01-27 This week, she really put on the lemon-lime smell of Chernobyl. I've pollinated her (once again) with Chemdog #2 pollen from a previous grow. I'm looking for a "stay lifted" effect, as both of these cultivars have. But, I'm hoping for more of the earthiness to come through from the Chemdog in the potential seeds that are produced.

Day 15 she's strong and beautiful. Will start training soon. Probably move her to the 4x4 next weekend. Topped the fourth node on day 17. Used a few LST clips on day 19. She didn't skip a beat from being topped.

I bring down the ph of the rockwool cubes by soaking them for a few hours in 3,5 and then flush them with ph 5,8 water with nutrients in and then let the cubes sit in ph corrected nutrients solution. I let them drain for 10 minutes After a 3,5 hours.

Very happy with this first time topping and got some hefty sized tight boulder nugs just drying now smells strong and musky with a hint of green apple, tried a tested and I slept for 16 hours very heavy hitter I did have a hard days work before hand though, buds stayed nice and tight after drying grinds up beautifull cured for a week tastes STRONG definitely dominant in GDP I hadn’t smoked in a while had my test of this and slept for 14 hours solid πŸ₯Š

This lady looks absolutely gorgeous, looks like she needed that transplant!, so this lady hss been Transplanted at day 39 since she was planted and I've prepared the 15L pot with the complete biotabs organic line, I've applied 25G of startrex for every 5L of soil, then I sprinkled a couple of grams of mycotrex on the planting hole and after the Transplant was completed I added 3 biotabs slow release tabs and after that just immediately watered with 1G of bactrex per liter of water and also 1ml per liter of orgatrex

πŸš‚ Cash Express – Pheno A Week 7 | Small Plant, Big Personality Welcome back to another week of the 8Γ—8 Adventure! πŸ’šπŸŒ± If this is your first visit to the diary, welcome! This project follows twelve different cultivars growing together under exactly the same conditions. Every plant shares the same environment, lighting, irrigation system and nutrient solution, allowing genetics to be the real variable. Watching each phenotype develop its own personality under identical conditions continues to be one of the most fascinating parts of this journey. Cash Express Pheno A continues growing under a strict 12/12 light schedule from seed beneath the Future of Grow Black Series LED, and once again she's proving that size has very little to do with beauty. She may be one of the smaller plants in the tent... But she's quickly becoming one of my favourites to photograph. ──────────────────────────── 🌸 Flower Development Flowering continues progressing beautifully this week. The fresh white pistils are multiplying rapidly and every flowering site is beginning to stack with much more confidence. What started as tiny clusters only a short time ago are now clearly becoming proper bud sites. The stretch has slowed considerably compared to previous weeks, allowing the plant to focus more of her energy on flower production. She's no longer trying to become taller. She's focused on becoming prettier. Every day the structure becomes a little more defined, making it easier to imagine what she'll look like a few weeks from now. ──────────────────────────── 🌿 Small... But Absolutely Beautiful Cash Express Pheno A belongs to the smaller group of plants inside the tent. She's compact, elegant and has never tried to compete with the taller girls surrounding her. Instead, she's building an incredibly balanced structure with evenly spaced flowering sites and a canopy that's a pleasure to observe. Sometimes we naturally associate bigger plants with bigger expectations. This little lady reminds us that's not always the case. Her architecture is outstanding. Every branch seems perfectly positioned, every flower receives excellent exposure, and the entire plant has developed into a very symmetrical little bush. I'm genuinely excited to see where she goes from here. ──────────────────────────── πŸ’‘ A Little Help From Below One advantage of her compact stature is the way she benefits from the under-canopy lighting. Being slightly further away from the main overhead fixtures than some of the taller plants, the LumiFlora under-canopy lights help illuminate the lower flowering sites, ensuring those developing buds continue receiving quality light from beneath the canopy as well. It's one of the advantages of combining overhead lighting with under-canopy illumination. Instead of allowing the lower flowers to live in permanent shade, they receive additional energy exactly where it's needed. It will be very interesting to see how much this contributes to flower development as the weeks progress. ──────────────────────────── 🌑️ Environment The flowering room continues running under stable conditions, allowing every cultivar to focus entirely on flower production. 🌑️ Day temperature: 29Β°C πŸŒ™ Night temperature: 25Β°C πŸ’§ Relative humidity: 60% πŸ₯₯ Root zone temperature: 21Β°C πŸ’¦ Nutrient solution temperature: 22Β°C βš—οΈ pH: 5.8 ⚑ EC: 1.95 mS/cm πŸ’¨ COβ‚‚: 639 ppm πŸ’‘ Light schedule: 12/12 Consistency continues being one of the biggest reasons the entire room is developing so evenly despite the huge genetic diversity. ──────────────────────────── 🌱 Feeding The AutoPot system continues supplying fresh nutrient solution whenever the plants request it, keeping the root zone stable and eliminating the need for scheduled watering. This week's reservoir consisted of: Plagron Terra Bloom – 2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L pH adjusted to 5.8 The plant continues responding beautifully to this feeding programme, maintaining healthy foliage while steadily increasing flower production across the entire canopy. ──────────────────────────── πŸ“Έ Behind the Lens This week's photographs really capture why I enjoy this phenotype so much. The close-up images highlight beautiful clusters of fresh white pistils, while the wider shots reveal a plant that's incredibly balanced from top to bottom. She's not flashy. She's simply elegant. One of my favourite photographs this week shows just how evenly every branch has developed, creating a canopy that almost seems designed rather than grown. Sometimes the smallest plants become the most photogenic ones. And I think Cash Express Pheno A is quietly proving exactly that. ──────────────────────────── πŸ” Looking Ahead The coming weeks should become increasingly exciting. Now that the stretch is slowing down, I expect the flowers to begin stacking much more aggressively while resin production gradually starts increasing. I'm especially curious to see how this compact structure responds as the buds gain weight. Will she produce short, chunky flowers? Or will she surprise us with longer spears than her structure currently suggests? Only time will answer that question. For now, I'll continue giving her exactly what she needs and simply enjoy watching her story unfold one week at a time. ──────────────────────────── πŸ’š Thank You Thank you so much to everyone following this 8Γ—8 Adventure. Every week these diaries remind me that every plant deserves to tell its own story, regardless of whether it's the biggest, the tallest or the fastest in the room. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for providing a place where growers from around the world can learn from one another and share their passion. Thank you to Zamnesia for these wonderful Cash Express genetics that continue to reveal new surprises every week. Thank you to Plagron for providing the nutrition that supports every stage of this grow. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for delivering the powerful overhead lighting that drives this project from seed to harvest. A special thank you to LumiFlora for the excellent under-canopy lighting, helping ensure every flowering site has the opportunity to develop to its full potential. And of course, thank you to AutoPot for making irrigation effortless while allowing the plants themselves to decide exactly when they want to drink. Finally, thank you to everyone reading, commenting and following this adventure. Your support makes this project even more rewarding, and I hope these diaries continue helping and inspiring growers around the world. Growers Love, and I'll see you all next week as Cash Express Pheno A continues proving that sometimes the smallest plants have the biggest personalities. πŸ’šπŸš‚πŸŒ±

Hello. this is the end of week 7 and the beginning of week 8 of veg. What good luck... I've got 7 females and 1 good male out of 9 plants. I killed 1 male and 1 seed didn't pop. Things are going well... The last undecided plant turned out to be a female. So I'm already to repot them and put them in the tent. I've got a 5x5 tent with a Spider Farmer Light, SF4000 in there. I think I'll have to get more soilless soil. I use Sunshine Mix #4. I usually get 4 bales to get me through a year. Lots of big spiders in my yard this year. The bees are sure taking a beating though. I haven't seen one in days. No wasps or mosquitos too. Hope your enjoying the comics. Have Fun. Chuck.

New leaves still discolored but growing apparently correctly. Possible reasons: - genetics (?) - heavy fertilized soil - Batmix from Plagron was used (?)

In week 3 I continued with the LST, but the plant showed more and more of its namesake genetics and grew into a kind of lettuce head. So towards the end of the week I started to remove a few leaves to improve aeration and light exposure. Additionally i slowly started incresing the power of the LED to about 75%.

Hello Diary, White Widow has reached the end of the 5th week of flowering, a total of 8 weeks since the start of the vegetation. As you can see from the photos, harvest is coming soon. I would say one more week and she will be ready. What's interesting is that this White Widow phenotype is a bit of a purple one. The flowers are starting to take on purple tones. The flowers are not as big compared to her roommates but they are rock hard and sticky under your fingers. This week I started checking the appearance of the trichomes and most of them are still transparent. All in all White Widow has pleasantly surprised me and brought a smile to my face when I look at her. The smell is very intense at this stage, the whole room smells like plants when I open the grow box. Watering is still every two or three days. This week I stopped adding nutrients, I just lowered the p.H. to 6.0 and water the plants with clean water. Here's what the previous week looked like. 13/09/2024 - Day 51. Watering. I prepared 9 liters of water, lowered the pH to 6.0 and used that amount to water all three plants on the farm. 16/09/2024 - Day 54. Watering. I repeated the same procedure as three days earlier. 18/09/2024 - Day 56. It's the end of the 8th week, taking pictures of the plants. That's all from me for this week, see you soon.

Welcome Back!πŸ’š Nach der sechsten BlΓΌtewoche konzentriert sich die Pflanze voll auf die BlΓΌten- Γ€hhhh Samenproduktion! Ja leider. Es sind einiges an Seeds die sich entwickeln. Den es haben sich doch viele HermaphroditensΓ€ckchen gebildet. Grâßtenteils doch auch unbemerkt, da ich die Pflanze stΓ€ndig abgesucht und kontrolliert hatte. Leider wohl doch... Scheint als wΓ€re die Genetik trotz der stark wissenschaftlichen Absicht irgendwie instabil. Ist bereits der zweite Versuch und Zack schon wieder. Naja, ich werde sie dennoch fertig Growen, da ich auf jedenfall auf das Wirkspektrum gespannt bin. Und jetzt die Pflanze zu kappen, dafΓΌr wΓ€re mir die Arbeit zu schade Die Pflanze ist von der Beschreibung her nicht darauf getrimmt viele Trichome auszubilden, da dass Hauptaugenmerk ja auch auf die THCV Produktion gelegt wurde. Ich hoffe dass sich die Samenproduktion in Grenzen hΓ€lt Die Umgebungsgegebenheiten sind ok: β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” 🌞 Temp: 26Β°C 🌚 Temp: 18Β°C bis 19Β°C πŸ’¨ RH: 56% VPD: 1,10 kPa 😎 PPFd: 830 mqm β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” Viele Grüße πŸ‘‹

The SCROG net was installed on the last day of Week 6, I included a couple pics from that night, to compare with how the plant looked the next day, which was the first day of Week 7. My nerve damaged fingers caused me to be a little rougher with her while the net was going on than I like, but as you can see, she bounced back very quickly and was reaching for the light less than 24 hours after being mangled lol. I will continue to systematically defoliate the upper canopy every night or two for the next several weeks, and will completely strip most everything below the net. Every night or two I'll tuck any branches that need tucking, and will remove any fan leaves covering bud sites. She spread out pretty well in the net, and truth be known i probably could have gotten away with a 6 week veg after, plants are a decent size in the net with the stretch left to go. Flip happens at the end of Week 7 The manganese issue seems to be getting much better by the end of the week. Will keep my pH levels at 5.8 for the remainder of this grow, and any subsequent grows. I also devised a fan mount to save on space in the net. Instead of standing the fan, i simply cut a piece of 1x3 to length, drilled 2 holes in each end, large enough for zip ties to pass through. then I simply zip tied it to the tent poles, took the legs off the fan, and screwed the base to the board. I placed a piece of foam on top, as the screws were a shade long and I was afraid the small protruding tip would eventually puncture the tent. Works much better than expected. No movement in the mount at all.

πŸš‚ 8Γ—8 Adventure – Week 13 🌸 Cash Express – Pheno A πŸ’¨ We Lost The Main Cola… But The Story Doesn't End Here Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8Γ—8 Adventure! πŸŒ±πŸ’š Okay... I have a confession to make. πŸ˜‚ Last week, I kind of missed the photos. And, unfortunately, there was a little more to that story than simply forgetting to take the camera out. Cash Express Pheno A was the girl who lost her main cola to bud rot. πŸ’”πŸŒΈ There. I said it. And honestly, it was a pity. A really fucking big pity. But... things happen. And when they do? We deal with them. We remove what needs to be removed. We inspect what remains. We keep moving. And that's exactly what we've done. The affected main cola is gone. The remaining flowers are looking good. No signs of the same issue on the remaining parts that we're keeping. And most importantly... Cash Express Pheno A is still here. She's still growing. She's still evolving. She's still moving fast. And she's still got plenty of beautiful flowers left to show us. So yes... we lost the main cola. But we did not lose the plant. And we certainly aren't going to let one bad moment define the rest of her story. We've moved on. Now it's time to take care of what remains. And make it shine. πŸ’šπŸš‚πŸŒΈβœ¨ ──────────────────────── πŸ™ A Small Apology Before We Move Forward First of all... I'm sorry, girl. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š Missing the previous report and photographs wasn't exactly how I wanted this chapter to go. And then, on top of that, we had the issue with the main cola. Not exactly the perfect week. But this is also part of growing. Not every chapter is going to be perfect. Not every photograph is going to be perfect. Not every flower is going to make it all the way to the finish. Sometimes something happens. And when it does... we don't hide it. We document it. We learn from it. We deal with it. And we continue. For anyone who wants the full story of what happened, I explained the situation in the previous week's Cash Express Pheno B report. So if you're curious about the details, go have a look there. But for this diary... the important part is: We found the problem. We removed the affected main cola. We checked the remaining flowers. And now we're moving forward. No drama. No panic. Just another chapter in the adventure. ──────────────────────── πŸš‚ The Main Cola Is Gone β€” But She's Still Here Let's address the obvious first. Yes... we lost the main cola. πŸ’” And it was a beautiful one. That's what makes it hurt. πŸ˜‚ When you've watched a plant develop for weeks, when you've seen a flower build itself up, when you've photographed it and followed its progression... losing part of it sucks. There's no better way to put it. But one flower doesn't define the entire plant. Cash Express Pheno A still has plenty of flowering sites. And those remaining flowers are what we're concentrating on now. We're not looking backward. We're looking forward. The affected part has been removed. The remaining plant is continuing to develop. And I'm very happy to see that the rest of her flowers are still looking beautiful. That's what matters now. So... goodbye, main cola. You were beautiful. πŸ’”πŸŒΈ And now... let's see what the rest of this girl can do. ──────────────────────── 🌸 What Remains Is Still Beautiful And this is the part I really want to focus on this week. Because when you look at the photographs... you can see it. She's still beautiful. She's still flowering. She's still developing. She's still carrying plenty of character. And honestly? She's still Cash Express. πŸ˜‚πŸš‚πŸ’š The remaining flowers are continuing to evolve quickly, just as we've been seeing from this phenotype throughout the run. She's still one of those girls that seems to change noticeably from week to week. The structure continues developing. The flowers continue maturing. And she's still giving us plenty to look at. So although we've lost one of the biggest pieces of the plant... we still have a lot of plant left. And I'm going to enjoy every bit of it. ──────────────────────── πŸ’¨ She's Still Moving Fast One thing hasn't changed. This girl is still moving. Fast. πŸ˜‚πŸš‚πŸ’¨ Even after everything that happened, she's continuing to progress. She's not sitting there looking defeated. She's not stopping. She's continuing her flowering journey. And that's actually one of the things I appreciate most about plants. Something can go wrong... and they just keep going. They don't sit there feeling sorry for themselves. They continue doing what plants do. Grow. Develop. Adapt. Finish their journey. And Cash Express Pheno A is doing exactly that. She's still evolving quickly. And now we're simply watching the remaining flowers become the main characters of this story. ──────────────────────── 🌿 One Problem Doesn't Change Her Personality Before the issue with the main cola, I already described this girl as one of the more unique plants in the room. And that hasn't changed. She's still not necessarily the classic "perfect-looking" plant. She's not the symmetrical princess. She's not the biggest. She's not the most glamorous. But she has character. And that's something you can't manufacture. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š She's interesting. She's individual. She's developing quickly. She's aromatic. And now she's also given us one of those unexpected chapters that becomes part of the story. That's the reality of a long grow. The plants don't always follow the script. And Cash Express definitely didn't. But that's okay. We're still here. ──────────────────────── 🌱 The 8Γ—8 Adventure β€” Same Room, Different Stories For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8Γ—8 Adventure. Twelve different plants. Different genetics. Different phenotypes. One shared room. One general environmental strategy. One 12/12 lighting schedule. One irrigation philosophy. One nutritional program. One lighting ecosystem. One grower. And twelve completely different stories. That's what makes this experiment so interesting. The environment can be kept consistent. The plants can't. πŸ˜‚ Every phenotype gets the same opportunity. And then... they decide what to do with it. Cash Express Pheno A has given us another reminder that every grow has its unexpected moments. But she's also showing us something else: The story doesn't stop just because one part of it changes. We adapt. We continue. And we keep documenting. ──────────────────────── πŸ’‘ Same Light. Same Room. Same Photons. The lighting environment remains unchanged. We're continuing with the upgraded Future of Grow Black Series setup, including the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures supplied for this experiment. After adding the additional fixtures, we reduced the output to approximately: πŸ”Œ ~59% from the plug with approximately: β˜€οΈ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with intensity naturally changing according to plant height and position. And Cash Express Pheno A continues growing underneath those photons. Same light. Same room. Same ecosystem. Different plant. Different response. That's one of the things I love most about this project. We don't need to give her a completely different environment to make her interesting. She's already interesting. She's doing that herself. ──────────────────────── 🌸 The Flowers Still Have A Story To Tell The main cola may be gone... but the remaining flowers aren't finished. Not at all. They're still developing. They're still changing. They're still building their own little structures. And when I look at them, I don't see a plant that has reached the end of her story. I see a plant that has had a setback... and is continuing anyway. That's a very different thing. So now my attention naturally shifts. Instead of admiring the main cola... we admire what remains. Instead of thinking about what we lost... we appreciate what we still have. And there is plenty here to appreciate. πŸŒΈπŸ’š ──────────────────────── πŸ‘ƒ And Yes... She's Still Making Herself Known Another thing that hasn't disappeared is her aroma. This girl was already starting to make herself known before. And she's still developing that side of her personality. The visual story is one thing. The aroma is another. And that's part of what makes following an individual phenotype so interesting. You can watch the structure. You can watch the flowers. You can watch the progression. And then suddenly... the plant starts speaking through another sense. πŸ˜‚πŸ’¨ Cash Express is definitely becoming memorable. And I'm curious to see how that expression continues to evolve as the remaining flowers mature. ──────────────────────── βœ‚οΈ We Don't Need To Invent More Work And now? We're not going crazy. πŸ˜‚βœ‚οΈ The affected main cola is gone. The remaining flowers are being watched. The plant is still developing. The environment is stable. So we're not going to start randomly manipulating the plant just because something happened. The important intervention was already made. Now? Observe. Maintain. Document. Let her continue. That's it. Sometimes the best thing you can do after dealing with a problem is simply return to stability. And that's exactly where we're going. Back to normal. Back to observation. Back to letting the plant do her thing. ──────────────────────── 🌿 The Room Is Stable β€” And That's Exactly What We Want The rest of the 8Γ—8 continues under the same conditions. We're keeping the room stable. Same ecosystem. Same environmental strategy. Same lighting setup. Same nutritional program. Same irrigation philosophy. And honestly? The room is looking good. The plants are alive. They're developing. They're progressing. They're showing their individual personalities. And that stability is exactly what we want right now. We're not changing things unnecessarily. We're not chasing the calendar. We're not trying to make every phenotype finish at the same time. We're watching them. And we're responding when something actually requires a response. Cash Express required one. We responded. Now we move forward. ──────────────────────── πŸ₯₯ Same Feeding β€” Same Opportunity The nutritional program remains unchanged for the room. 🌱 Plagron Pure Zym β€” 1 ml/L βš—οΈ Plagron pH Plus β€” 0.03 ml/L πŸ‹ Plagron Lemon Kick β€” 0.03 ml/L 🌸 Plagron Terra Bloom β€” 2 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Power Buds β€” 1 ml/L 🍯 Plagron Sugar Royal β€” 1 ml/L Current solution strength remains around: ⚑ EC ~2.05 mS/cm And we're continuing with the same overall irrigation strategy. No special recipe for Cash Express. No special nutritional treatment. Same opportunity. Same room. Same ecosystem. And she's responding in her own way. ──────────────────────── 🌑️ WEEK 13 β€” CURRENT ROOM CONDITIONS The room continues under the same stable conditions used across this week's reports: 🌸 Flowering β€” Week 13 πŸ’‘ Light schedule β€” 12/12 πŸ’‘ Future of Grow Black Series LEDs β€” upgraded setup πŸ”Œ Approx. lighting output β€” ~59% from the plug β˜€οΈ Upper-canopy PPFD β€” ~1,500 🌑️ Day temperature β€” ~27Β°C πŸŒ™ Night temperature β€” ~26Β°C πŸ’§ Relative humidity β€” ~61% βš—οΈ pH β€” ~6.04 ⚑ EC β€” ~2.05 mS/cm 🌑️ Solution temperature β€” ~25Β°C 🌱 Substrate temperature β€” ~25Β°C 🌬️ COβ‚‚ β€” ~693 ppm 🌱 Pot size β€” 15 L πŸ’¦ Irrigation β€” ~1.45 L per plant / 24h Same room. Same environment. Same ecosystem. Same feeding. Same lighting. And Cash Express Pheno A is continuing her journey with one less major cola than she started this chapter with. But still plenty of story left. ──────────────────────── πŸ”¬ This Is Also Part Of The Experiment I think it's important to document the difficult moments too. It's easy to make a diary when everything looks perfect. Beautiful flowers. Perfect photographs. Amazing progress. Everything sparkling. But that's not reality. Reality is that sometimes you lose something. Sometimes a flower doesn't make it. Sometimes you have to change your plans. And sometimes you simply have to say: "Okay. That happened. Let's deal with it." πŸ˜‚ That's what we've done here. And I think that's just as valuable to document as the beautiful parts. Because the 8Γ—8 Adventure isn't a collection of perfect photographs. It's a real journey. And Cash Express Pheno A has now given us one of those chapters. ──────────────────────── πŸ’š We Move On So... enough about what we lost. Let's talk about what we still have. πŸ’šπŸŒΈ We still have a beautiful plant. We still have developing flowers. We still have an interesting phenotype. We still have aroma. We still have plenty of flowering sites. We still have photographs to take. We still have weeks of watching ahead of us. And most importantly... she's still moving. Fast. πŸ˜‚πŸš‚πŸ’¨ That's what I want to focus on. Not the missing cola. The flowers that remain. Not the setback. The progress. Not the disappointment. The next chapter. Because that's where we're going. Forward. ──────────────────────── πŸ“Έ Now We Photograph What Remains And looking at the photographs from this week... I'm happy we kept documenting her. Because she's still worth photographing. Very much so. The remaining flowers have their own beauty. The structure is still interesting. The plant still has plenty of personality. And now, perhaps more than ever, I want to document her properly. Because this is part of her story. Not the story we expected. But her story nonetheless. And when we look back at this diary later... we'll know exactly what happened. We'll remember the main cola. We'll remember losing it. And we'll remember that the rest of the plant kept going. That's what these photographs are for. ──────────────────────── πŸš‚ FINAL THOUGHTS β€” MAKE WHAT'S LEFT SHINE Week 13. And Cash Express Pheno A has had a rough little chapter. We missed the previous report. We lost the main cola. And yes... it was a pity. A big one. πŸ’”πŸŒΈ But we've dealt with it. The affected part has been removed. The remaining flowers are showing no signs of the same issue. She's still developing. She's still moving quickly. She's still aromatic. She's still beautiful in her own unique way. And she's still very much part of this adventure. So I'm not going to sit here feeling sorry for what we lost. I'm going to look at what remains... and appreciate it. Because there's plenty here to appreciate. πŸŒΈπŸ’š The main cola may have left the story. But Cash Express Pheno A hasn't. She's still writing. And we're still reading. πŸ˜‚πŸš‚πŸ’¨ So let's make her shine. Let's give the remaining flowers the spotlight. Let's appreciate every single one of them. Let's watch her continue to evolve. Let's keep the room stable. Let's keep observing. And let's see what this girl can still give us. Because if there's one thing this plant has already shown us... it's that she doesn't sit still for long. She's moving. She's evolving. She's doing her thing. And now... we're going to help her shine with what's left. πŸš‚πŸŒΈπŸ’šβœ¨ Things happen. We move on. We take care of the plants. And we keep growing. That's the 8Γ—8 Adventure. ──────────────────────── πŸ™ THANK YOU A huge thank you to Zamnesia for the Cash Express genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover these individual phenotypes throughout the 8Γ—8 Adventure. πŸŒΈπŸ™ Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of the journey and helping us keep the room consistent throughout this experiment. 🌱 A massive thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting and especially for supplying the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures we're testing in this room. πŸ’‘πŸ™ Thank you to Lumiflora for adding another lighting dimension deeper into the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us maintain the environment behind the scenes. And of course... thank you to everyone following these reports on GrowDiaries. Thank you for the comments. Thank you for the questions. Thank you for the support. And thank you for following even when the story isn't perfect. Because that's what makes these diaries real. Sometimes we celebrate. Sometimes we laugh. Sometimes we say: "Fuck... we lost that one." πŸ˜‚ And then we clean up, we move forward, and we keep documenting. Cash Express Pheno A has lost her main cola. But she has not lost her story. She's still growing. Still developing. Still moving fast. Still making herself known. And still deserving of the spotlight. So let's give it to her. πŸš‚πŸŒΈπŸ’¨πŸ’š Keep shining, Cash Express. The main cola may be gone... but the rest of you still have plenty to say. And we're listening. Growers Love & Happy Growing! πŸŒ±πŸ’šπŸš‚

Producing steadily, slight smell. This pheno is strong and fast growing. Not as susceptible to light burn as the sister pheno. Also more productive, and managed to top itself as a seedling without any help. Will keep this strain forever. I absolutely love it! Happy growing πŸ’šπŸŒ±
