Hey ho fellow farmers. My little girl is two weeks old and I feel comfy entering the competition with this diary now, she's established and growing fine. Germination could have gone better, I let her stretch a bit too long, I wanted her to stretch a bit because of my dripper ring, I had seen some very dense and compact phenos of this strain and didn't want to risk mold issues down the line. as a result she fell over at the start of the week, I supported her and she seems to have recovered since. She also threw some weird shaped leaves on her second nodes, likely from the stress of falling over, I tend to find ruderalis does this when stressed, more so than normal weed. They look like lil thumbs up. Thanks for coming by this week, hope to see you next week. Stay safe and keep growing

week 3 of the flowering stage of MD XXL ๐Ÿ™Œ 1 of the 3 is realy not doing good and is yellowing alot, i dont know why this is, i think its heat stress combined with nutrient deficiency but im not 100% sure. I think shes doing better since i went from 3ml/l alga bloom to 4ml/l and adding 1ml/l green sensation to it. Other 2 MD XXLs are doing just fine, ๐Ÿ˜‰ its still very hot where i live, around 30 degrees celcius every day, global warming all the way... i wonder what my harvest amount will be! For the people in the Grow Questions, i dont check PH/TDS simply because my budget couldnt sustain the equipment, ill get it next grow. Also the alga grow/bloom line from plagron states that you dont need to check PH levels because the algae in the nutrients will regulate it apparently, I also choose NOT to defoliate since i read alot of different stuff about it. I think i just let nature do its way and only remove those bad fans blocking my beautiful buds ๐Ÿ‘น

Another week of slow but steady growth for these 2. Just like with the other grow, I moved from 7l plastic pots to 11l fabric pots. The extra size will force me to be more diligent about the height. This one is not an auto so I will probably do a second round of topping, it depends on how fast and branchy these plants end up being.

Week 13 in the garden, and it's been a week of contemplation and admiration. Despite my initial plan to flip the plants, I decided to give them another week in vegetation. It's like I'm sculpting a masterpiece, carefully grooming the plants into a perfect botanical sculpture. Working with my plants feels like art โ€“ it requires skill, love, dedication, and a sense of playing God. As I look at the tent, I can't help but feel a sense of pride and joy. These green beauties are turning out amazing, and I'm filled with overwhelming happiness whenever I get the chance to speak to people about them and show them off. But the time has come to take the next step in their journey. They're being flipped this week for sure, ready to embark on the next chapter of their growth. It's bittersweet, but I know it's all part of the magical process of growing these wonderful plants. Here's to Week 13 โ€“ a week of artistry, joy, and the promise of new beginnings. ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŽจ

End of summer and the end of the term A satisfying double run, both indoors (4 ร— Apple Strudel) and outdoors (1 ร— Strawberry Gorilla) : 680 g trimmed and cured in total, now quietly maturing until the smoke test. The outdoor yield remains modest, as the Northern European climate and sunshine levels donโ€™t (yet) allow for a large harvest. But I already know what to do to improve the numbers next year: a much lighter substrate, nutrient doses adjusted to slower growth than indoors, and finding a spot with 100% full-day exposure. Now, a little break for a few weeks before starting a few more seeds ๐Ÿ˜Š

Looking like veg is heading in the right direction for now no issues just early signs to feed nutes soon. Quarter strength to start if that doesn't much happen well. Then I shall bump up the feeding. I am starting to enjoy autos for their turn around rates most have been more than acceptable as well as exceptional smoke.

๐Ÿ’œ Purple Haze by Zamnesia โ€“ Pheno B Week 9 | The Frosty Little Bush Welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š Well... I think we can officially stop asking what kind of plant Purple Haze Pheno B wants to be. She's made her decision. She's a bush. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ And she's a beautiful one. While her sister has taken a completely different path, Pheno B continues to build herself outward, staying compact, dense and beautifully full. But something has changed this week. The flowers are starting to get seriously frosty. And that's where this girl is becoming particularly interesting. Because although she's still unmistakably the little bush of the Purple Haze family... she's starting to show us another side of herself. ๐ŸŒฟ Still the Bush If you've been following this phenotype from the beginning, you already know her personality. She's compact. She's dense. She's lush. She's not interested in chasing the ceiling. She's perfectly happy building herself outward and filling the space around her. And honestly, I really like it. The more weeks we spend watching the two Purple Haze sisters develop under the same overall environment, the more obvious their differences become. Same genetics. Same room. Same general conditions. Same lighting philosophy. Same feeding strategy. But completely different expressions. Her sister has developed her own architecture. Pheno B has looked at all of that and apparently decided: "No thanks. I'm staying a bush." ๐Ÿ˜‚ And that's exactly what makes this phenotype hunt so fascinating. ๐Ÿ’œ Something Is Happening With the Frost The biggest thing catching my attention this week isn't her height. It isn't her structure. We already know those things. It's the frost. The resin production is becoming increasingly visible across the developing flowers, and the change feels much more noticeable compared with where she was only a short time ago. She's starting to sparkle. And she's doing it quickly. That's probably what surprised me most. For a phenotype that has been moving at her own rhythm, the speed at which she's now developing this frosty appearance is really interesting to watch. The flowers are becoming more defined. The sugar leaves are beginning to carry that beautiful crystalline appearance. And suddenly the whole plant has another layer of character. The bush is getting frosty. ๐Ÿ’œโ„๏ธ ๐ŸŒธ The Flowers Are Finding Their Identity The flower sites continue developing throughout that compact structure. There's still a lot of green surrounding them, but the flowers themselves are becoming increasingly easy to distinguish. Fresh pistils continue emerging. The calyxes are becoming more noticeable. And now the resin is joining the party. This is one of my favourite stages to document because you can actually see the plant changing from week to week. It's no longer simply: "Here are some flowering sites." It's becoming: "Okay... now we're starting to see what these flowers are going to become." And with Pheno B, that process is happening throughout her little bush. ๐Ÿƒ Lush, Green & Completely Herself The foliage remains one of the strongest characteristics of this phenotype. She's still carrying that beautiful green colour and an enormous amount of healthy-looking foliage. Even though the flowers are becoming more prominent, the plant hasn't lost her identity. She's still that compact, leafy Purple Haze. Still dense. Still bushy. Still doing things her own way. And that's something I really appreciate about this project. We're not trying to make every phenotype behave identically. We're watching them reveal themselves. Pheno B has already revealed quite a lot. And I'm enjoying every chapter. ๐Ÿ‘ญ Two Sisters, Two Completely Different Stories This comparison is becoming more and more fun. When we first started watching these two Purple Haze phenotypes, there were plenty of similarities. Now? Not so much. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Pheno A: elegant, balanced, beautifully proportioned. Pheno B: compact, dense, bushy and increasingly frosty. Same genetic name. Different architecture. Different personality. Different expression. And that's exactly what phenotype hunting is all about. If anything, the longer this run continues, the more convinced I become that growing multiple plants from the same genetic line is incredibly valuable. You don't just get a plant. You get a conversation between genetics and environment. And these two sisters are having a very interesting conversation. ๐Ÿ’ก Light From Above & Below The lighting ecosystem continues to support the entire room as the plants move deeper into flowering. With Pheno B's compact structure, it's particularly interesting to watch how the flowers develop throughout the dense architecture rather than simply focusing on the tallest points. The additional lighting within the lower canopy remains part of the experiment, and I'm enjoying documenting how the flowers across different levels of this little bush continue developing. One thing is becoming increasingly obvious: there's a lot happening inside this plant. She's small compared with some of the taller girls. But she's certainly not empty. There's a lot of flower packed into that structure. ๐Ÿ’ง Consistency Continues As with the rest of the 8ร—8 Adventure, Pheno B continues under the same overall flowering nutrition strategy. The current program remains: ๐ŸŒฑ Terra Bloom โ€“ 2.2 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Power Buds โ€“ 1 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Green Sensation โ€“ 1 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Sugar Royal โ€“ 1 ml/L โš—๏ธ pH adjustment products as required The nutrient solution remains around EC 2.0 mS/cm, with pH around 6.0. No special recipe. No special treatment. She's simply responding in her own way. And that's the part I find most interesting. ๐ŸŒก๏ธ The Environment The current recorded conditions for Week 9 are: ๐ŸŒธ Flower Week: 9 ๐Ÿ“ Height: 111 cm ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule: 12/12 ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature: 20ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature: 25ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง Relative humidity: 60% โš—๏ธ pH: 6.0 โšก EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm ๐Ÿ’ฆ Solution temperature: 25ยฐC ๐ŸŒฑ Substrate temperature: 26ยฐC ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ COโ‚‚: 636 ppm ? Pot size: 15 L ๐Ÿ’ง Watering: approximately 1.2 L per plant / 24h The room continues providing the same overall ecosystem, while each phenotype continues interpreting it differently. And Pheno B? She's interpreting it as: "Build a bush. Then cover it in frost." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ ๐Ÿ“ธ The Camera Loves This Girl This is another phenotype that rewards getting close. From a distance, you see the bush. You see the structure. You see the density. But move closer... And suddenly everything changes. You start seeing the individual flowers. The white pistils. The developing calyxes. The sugar leaves. And now, increasingly, those beautiful resin-covered surfaces. That's what makes documenting this project so enjoyable. A plant can look completely different depending on how closely you observe it. The wide photograph tells one story. The flower photograph tells another. And the macro tells you there's an entire universe happening inside that little flower. Purple Haze Pheno B is giving us plenty to photograph. ๐Ÿ”ฎ Looking Ahead And now I'm genuinely curious about the next chapter. Because I think we're reaching an interesting point with this girl. She's still the bush. She's still compact. She's still completely different from her sister. But the flowers are changing. The frost is increasing. The structure is becoming more defined. And her development seems to be accelerating compared with what we've seen from her previously. So I'm going to keep watching. Keep documenting. Keep photographing. And most importantly... let her continue being herself. Because whatever she decides to become, she clearly isn't interested in following anybody else's blueprint. ๐Ÿ’œ The Frosty Bush Every phenotype in this room has given me something different to appreciate. Some have been challenging. Some have been demanding. Some have been incredibly fast. Some have taken their time. And Purple Haze Pheno B? She's given me the bush. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฟ But now she's adding something new to that identity. She's becoming the frosty bush. ๐Ÿ’œโ„๏ธ And I have to admit... I like that version even more. She's compact. She's lush. She's beautifully green. She's structurally interesting. Her flowers are developing. And the resin is beginning to become one of her defining characteristics. She doesn't need to become her sister. She doesn't need to become the tallest plant in the room. She doesn't need to change who she is. She just needs to keep being Pheno B. And right now... she's doing that beautifully. ๐Ÿ™ Thank You Another week, another little piece of the 8ร—8 Adventure puzzle falls into place. This project continues to show me that genetics can take the exact same environment and turn it into completely different stories. And these Purple Haze sisters are becoming one of my favourite examples. One elegant. One bushy. One beautifully balanced. One increasingly frosty. Two sisters. Two personalities. And two plants I absolutely love watching develop. A huge thank you to: ๐Ÿ’š GrowDiaries โ€” for giving growers a place to document, share and learn together. ๐ŸŒฑ Zamnesia โ€” for providing the genetics behind this fascinating phenotype hunt. ๐Ÿ’œ Plagron โ€” for the nutrition supporting the project. ๐Ÿ’ก Future of Grow LED โ€” for the lighting powering the room. ๐ŸŒฟ TrolMaster โ€” for helping maintain the controlled environment behind the scenes. โœจ LumiFlora โ€” for the additional lighting helping us observe flowering throughout the canopy. And, of course, thank you to everyone following along, commenting, asking questions and enjoying this adventure with me. Purple Haze Pheno B may still be the bush. But now she's becoming a frosty bush. ๐Ÿ’œโ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ And something tells me... this little girl may have a few more surprises waiting for us. Let's keep watching. Let's keep documenting. And let's keep letting every phenotype tell her own story. Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’œ
