*** update, 7/23. Girls are very happy today. Another day with no afternoon sun. Thank goodness I hung a light above them or I would be dealing with some light starved ladies but as it is they are chugging right along. Another day that I won’t have to worry about watering them thanks to the Roots Organic Formula 707 soil, stuff is making me a believer. Really healthy plants on their way into flower by the next weeks update I’m sure. Strong well pronounced female organs I hope mean big buds later on down the line. The Harvey Wallbanger is coming on strong, now the second tallest. She still has not produced a fan leaf with more than five points on it, all 5’s or 3’s. The Vanilla Fizz I still think will enter flower first as the other two are still producing opposite nodes and are not staggered yet. The 91 Grapes stinks!! Not even in flower yet but stinks, very chemmy.

Good afternoon everyone! One more week is gone of the flowering. the plant looks beautiful, the buds become heavier every day. I still only use Hesi sponsored nutrients with every watering. I don't overdose on nutrients and follow the weekchart I got from Hesi. genetics is good old school from Neville's seed bank. It is also a normal seed, not femenized. The light schedule is 12/12 , feeding every day( I try to handle the cocos always wet) next week is the last flowering, after that I will clean the plant and will harvest it. Good luck, everyone

420 Fastbuds Week 5 Cherry Cola Auto What up grow fam. Weekly update on these girls starting week 2 of the flower cycle. So far all has been OK with keeping up the same routine. One of the plants I will say is an absolute mutant for some reason. Just not responding to anything I've done to try and help it out. I'll keep up with what all the other plants get because they seem healthy and happy. The other plant is doing well growing and producing preflowers. All in all Happy Growing

Start of week 5. It looks good to me, healthy but I thought it would stretch a little more. At the beginning of this adventure I had problems with fungus gnats, which I thought had already been resolved but it isn't, there aren't many of them and they aren't harming the plant, at least for now.

September 16, 2021 - Everything is chugging along nicely. Both girls are growing at a nice pace. I noticed a couple of fungus gnats earlier this week (I suspect they came in with the cheap soil I'm using with the herb garden). I've been letting the soil dry out and also put out new yellow sticky tape. I'm also spraying the plants with a rotating regimen of Neem Oil, Dr. Zymes and diluted Peppermint essential oils. I rotate spraying with a different solution every 3 days. I'll keep this up until flowering starts. I'll also be dropping new seeds next weekend. I'm going for a perpetual harvest with 2 plants starting every 4 weeks. 👍 Cya next week!!!

Servus Moin! Es geht langsam echt richtig aufs Ende zu. Die eine Knolle oben, die so ein wenig gebleicht ist, ist jetzt mittlerweile richtig fett geworden und bildet sich schon sehr schön in alle Richtungen aus. Trotz den Nanners sieht sie immernoch mega krank aus.

💜 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. 💜🌿

This is the final week of nutes for the ladies! Time to flush her for the coming week. Also read that Purple Punch needs cold temps at night to turn color. Since I can't do that where I live, an alternative is to flush her with ice water. Giving that a try and will keep you guys updated.

👋This could be another usual week of waiting for my killer to bloom. However, I decided on tough measures. I raised the nutrition to 1200 ppm (which the baby coped with) defoliation in two approaches with a difference of 24 hours. At the end of the week, I replaced the solution with a flowering composition. 👉Solution: Water 190, 8 liters Silicon 4 CalMag 2.5 Gro 5.3, Micro 10.6, Bloom 15.9 (1-2-3) 2 pH down Total 930, 6.5 😨The plant ate it before 790, the next day I added more Silicon 0.5 СalMag 0.5 Gro 1.6, Micro 3.2, Bloom 4.8 Total in the tank - 1130 6.1 😻And today, December 31, exactly on the New Year's Eve, I finally received a package with additional lighting. Now in my box there are additional strips with ultraviolet light with a power of 30 watts, and the number of red booster has increased to 60. 👽This will be SUPERMEGABLOOM. We are waiting for the development of events.

Hey everyone! 😁 Another week, another update and I've learnt a lot this week! It seems my theory that I was underfeeding Puff was right (I mean, it's not rocket science and I confused charts haha) and I had to do something to fix this issue! Some people I talked with recommended me to buy a product called "Revive" from Advanced Nutrients since it would help with a faster recovery than just adapting the nutrients... and it seems it works! I applied it twice (this week's post) and the next and the improvements are really noticeable! (specially now!) My concern now tho is when I should start flushing! Puff should be ready soon and supposedly I should start doing it two weeks before harvest... and I should harvest when trichomes are 50 cloudy and 50 amber... but how can I tell when I those two weeks are close? The trichomes should be 20% amber? 10% amber? It's confusing! 😱 I know as well that the two weeks flush is just a number, I could also flush for one week but I still don't know WHEN it'll be the right time to start doing it but I think that by the middle of the next week or by the end of it I'll start doing it. Anyway, thanks everyone for reading this update! 😃 Next week I'll have more news! 😜

Non riesco più ad aggiornare il diario come sempre comunque è stata una settimana bellissima! Ogni varietà sta completando le fioritura in maniera abbondante. Infiorescenze dure e molto resinose si formano in ogni parte delle piante. Sembrano tutte XXL di dimensioni! Molto profumate ogni varietà ha il suo raffinato aroma, non manca molto alla fase finale della fioritura. Sono felice di ogni varietà, complimenti a chi le ha create! Un abbraccio a tutti

had big bud over the weekend, The soil was very dry when I came in on Monday so give it 2 litres hopefully last the next day or 2. Still very tempted to defoliate but unsure if it is the right time or what to remove. Decided to try and defoliate it a bit. see if it has any impact. still a bit worried about things like this what wiht it being my first plant

⭐ TrolMaster tracking ⭐ I started to track my crop during week 15, when I got the Tent-X TCS-1 by TrolMaster. First impression was: this is too professional for me, I can't handle setting it up and using it well. Then I started reading some posts on Instagram, I visited their site and in 5 minutes my cultivation experience took a huge step forward with disarming simplicity, I couldn't believe it. I have uploaded tracking videos from the TrolMaster app for each week from the 15th to the 19th, as well as the two weeks of drying stage. ⭐ Controller Chronicles ⭐ Day after day I appreciated the clarity and precision for data, access to all settings and instant readings by connecting a WIFI router to the controller's LAN port. I loved the possibility to dim my lamps remotely, or even automatically based on the temperature in the box! 🌱 GERMINATION (2 days) Seeds in a glass of EC 0.4 tap water for 10 hours, then in root riots and under the lamp. They sprouted after 48 hours from dry seed. 🌿 GROWING STAGE (10 weeks and half) I decided to give these plants a long vegetative growth and this allowed me to do a lot of training on both. Starting from the 4th veg week I started with defoliation sessions every two weeks, for a total of four during the entire vegetative phase. The last defoliation was done a couple of days before the switch, in order to allow the lower parts of the plant to get as much light as possible. Furthermore I did Topping on week 6, cutting the apical branch, then on week 8 I did Topping again on several sites, as well as SuperCropping on the highest branches to make the canopy uniform. The light cycle I used is 18/6 and the last two veg weeks I lowered the light hours to 16/8 first and 14/10 then. During the veg stage I made 4 DWC change, PH was always between 5.5 and 6, about EC I started with 0.6 and was 1.4 on the last veg week. 🌸 FLOWERING STAGE (9 weeks) I started this phase after 36 hours of darkness, I then changed the DWCs solution (adding a flowering stimulator). Then I mounted the ScrOG-net about 50 cm from the base of the plants and I wove the phenotype #1 through the net occupying at least 60% of the available space; the phenotype #2 stretched shortly after the switch and I used the net only to widen the central branches. They showed the pre-flowers two weeks after the switch, then I made two defoliations on week 3 and 5 flo. During the last four weeks of flowering (weeks 6-9) I simply paid attention to the PH-EC levels to provide the roots with optimal conditions. I then kept the TEMP-RH-VPD-PPFD values ​​under control and this also thanks to the Tent-X controller by TrolMaster which allows me to provide optimal conditions also above. I chopped them when trichomes were about 85% milky and 15% amber. During the flowering stage PH was always between 5.8 and 6.2, about EC I started with 2 and was 2.3 on the last week before flush. ✅ HARVEST - From dry seed to harvest: 140 days (2 days germination + 75 days veg + 63 days flo). - Chopped after 4 days flush and 48 hours in dark; - Wet trim, removed fan leaves. ✅ DRYING STAGE - Time: 14 days; - Average: 20° C - 50% RH. - After that I made a dry trim, removed branches and sugar leaves. ⚖️ DRY WEIGHT - Phenotype #1: 230 gr buds + 25 gr larf; - Phenotype #2: 105 gr buds + 50 gr larf. So, the overall dry weight is: 335 gr buds + 75 gr larf. ✅ CURING STAGE - Curing is done after 30 days with Boveda 62%.
