November 8th. 39 days post flip Plants continue to grow very well. A lot of fattening has occurred in the last week and I expect even more in this following week. Midweek I have some big 6 and recharge. At this point I likely won’t be providing anything but water until the finish line. My lower leaves have not started to fade yet and so I do not want to overdo it with any nutrients. Smells have intensified a lot in the last week. I smells these things when I wake up in the morning when I go to work. Still not a lot of purpling on the purple marmalades. I can see them starting to turn. I’m hoping lower nighttime temperatures will help They need a defoliation now honestly but I am going to be patient and will not defoliate until day 49. I still need to add those two fans. I just ordered them so will add them in a few days when they arrive. Number 1(Cherry Chunks): This one seems to have the fattest colas. Also appears to be the frostiest so far but number 3 seems to be catching up. Not much on the smells on this one just yet. Earthy so far Number 2(Purple Marmalade): This one is my winner so far. The smells and taste of the Trichomes on this thing are absolutely insane. Candy mixed with guava mixed with watermelon. It is also the tallest and most vigorous plant. I’m confident I could fill this whole tent easily with one of these Number 3(Purple Marmalade): Smells of slight lemon mixed with earth and gas. This one seems like it’s going to be a bit gassy. Not as vigorous as 2 but it is frostier as far as I can tell. Clones: Growing well and really starting to take off! God Bless!! November 9th Update: Hey guys i ended up lying in two category’s. The first one was when I said I was waiting until day 49 to defoliate any more. The fan leaves were getting out of hands so I ended up removing half of them now on day 40. This significantly opened up more bud sites to the lights up top and also increased airflow and lowered my humidity a few percentage points. I did this a little early because they are fattening and I’m concerned about navigating around the buds when they are fatter in 9 days. Trying to mitigate the number of Trichomes I smash up. I also ended up giving some molasses. Want to make sure my microbes are happy and figured the potassium boost will help the flowering. As always, thank you guys and god bless!

My friends raved about this strain. Great taste great high and density was fantastic! Overall five stars and I only did one plant because I only had one seed and I may grow this one again. I always LST my plants and I got almost 7 ounces off of this one with only about six weeks of veg.

First day of germination I'll keep you updated

Woche 7 und die Automatiks gehen in die Blüte. Tropicana Cookies purple Auto, fat Banana Auto und Apple fritter Auto. Die feminisierten wurden nach der 5. Node getoppt und verzweigen jetzt, LST bei den Autos wirkt. Hab die pötte mit Hornspänen (Stickstoff) vorgedüngt, deshalb noch kein Flüssigdünger. Erst, wenn die Blüte oder Mangel kommt. Es läuft ganz gut 👍 bis nächste Woche ✌️

Still on point. Starting to get things dialed in after a big new move. Started 2 more lemon Zkittles 2 Cinderella Jacks and 2 more Think Different. Love DUTCH Passion! Pots are full of lime, earthworm castings (Lots) feather meal fish meal phosphorus... starting to smell. A buddy grew lemon skittles (Kix) and does it stink. Love it.

happy day, weed masters! my girls get fat and enjoy the light! this week we are going to add a key element in the fertilization program that it is advisable to use in the second half of flowering as in this phase it develops a continuous growing need for phosphorus and potassium Fosfor Plus is able to provide the right nutrients at the right time for optimal bud development and rapid nutrient transport ---- stay on track to stay up to date best regards

These 2 are growing likes beasts. They will both be going outside in the next 2 weeks or so. Just waiting on overnight temps to stay in the double digits and we are GTG.

I grew this strain multiple times and still love it. So strong and so yummy. Can't wait to try her. She looks great 😻

Still trucking along. I had my light turned up a bit high for the first week, I turned them down a few days ago and all the plants seemed to enjoy it. Nothing else to report really.

Light schedule is changed and she's ready to go

Ayer hice el primer transplante a un solo cup de litro. Encontré un gusano, debe ser del humos que le pongo al sustrato que reciclo, lo bueno que ahora puedo decir literalmente suelo vivo. Les puse de top dress harina de neem como preventivo de plagas, insect frass y harina de malta para los microorganisms.

🍮 Chem Brûlée – Pheno A Week 7 | Listening to What the Plant Is Saying Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of the biggest lessons this project continues teaching me is that every phenotype speaks its own language. Some whisper. Some shout. Some ask for almost nothing. And others aren't shy about telling you exactly what they need. Chem Brûlée Pheno A definitely belongs to that second group. Standing at around 120 cm, she's what I would consider a medium-sized indoor plant. She isn't trying to dominate the room with height, nor is she hiding beneath the canopy. Instead, she's growing with a beautiful balanced structure, allowing every branch plenty of space to develop its own flowers. This week she reminded me that healthy cultivation isn't about forcing plants to follow our schedule. It's about paying attention when they ask for something different. 🌿 A Plant That Isn't Afraid to Ask One of the first things I noticed this week was the colour of some of the older foliage. Several lower fan leaves continued becoming lighter green than the rest of the canopy, clearly telling me that this phenotype wanted a little more nutrition than she had been receiving. Rather than seeing this as a problem, I see it as communication. One of the fascinating parts of growing twelve different cultivars side by side is discovering that every plant processes nutrients slightly differently. They all share the same AutoPot reservoir, the same environment, the same lighting and the same feeding schedule, yet each one responds according to its own genetics. Chem Brûlée simply happens to be one of the hungrier ladies in the room. The good news is that after increasing the EC for the entire reservoir, she's already beginning to respond beautifully. The newest growth is noticeably greener and healthier, giving me confidence that we made the right adjustment at exactly the right time. Sometimes plants don't need dramatic interventions. They simply need us to listen. 🌼 Building Beautiful Flowers While the foliage has been asking for a little extra attention, the flowers certainly haven't slowed down. The main cola continues becoming more defined every day, while bud sites keep stacking along every branch throughout the plant. Fresh white pistils continue emerging everywhere, and it's becoming easier to imagine the shape these flowers will eventually take over the coming weeks. The stretch is now beginning to slow. Flower production is taking over. Every day a little less energy goes into growing taller, and a little more goes into building beautiful colas. This is where the fun really begins. 🍃 Letting the Plant Lead Apart from increasing the nutrient strength, this has been another calm week inside the tent. No heavy defoliation. No unnecessary training. Just careful observation and a little leaf tucking whenever needed to expose developing flower sites. I've learned that during these early flowering weeks, patience usually gives better results than constantly reaching for the scissors. The plant already has a plan. Sometimes my job is simply to stay out of her way. 🍽️ Feeding After seeing this phenotype asking for a little more nutrition, the reservoir strength was increased for the entire room. This week's feeding consisted of: • Terra Bloom – 2 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L Along with small pH adjustments using Lemon Kick whenever necessary. Since every AutoPot shares the same nutrient reservoir, individual feeding isn't possible. Fortunately, the entire room was ready for the increase, meaning Chem Brûlée benefits from the adjustment alongside all of her sisters. 🌡️ Environment The flowering room continues running beautifully stable. • Day temperature averaged 29°C • Night temperature remained around 25°C • Relative humidity averaged 60% • Solution temperature stayed close to 22°C • Root zone remained near 21°C • Atmospheric CO₂ averaged 639 ppm Providing the plants with a stable environment allows them to dedicate their energy toward producing flowers instead of constantly adapting to changing conditions. Consistency continues to be one of the biggest advantages in this grow. 📸 Behind This Week's Photos This week's photographs tell a wonderful story. The close-up shots reveal beautiful clusters of fresh white pistils beginning to stack into proper flower sites, while the wider images showcase a very balanced plant with elegant branching and excellent spacing throughout the canopy. You can also spot the lighter colour on some of the older leaves that first caught my attention this week, but the newest growth already looks healthier and much richer in colour. It's always satisfying when the plant immediately shows you that she's appreciating the changes you've made. Sometimes photographs become more than memories. They become conversations between grower and plant. 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should bring another exciting step in her development. I expect the flowers to continue stacking as the stretch gradually comes to an end and the plant shifts almost entirely into flower production. I'll also be watching the foliage closely, hoping to see that healthier green colour continue spreading now that the feeding has been increased. The plan remains exactly the same. Maintain a stable environment. Keep the reservoir consistent. Observe carefully. And let the plant do what she does best. Sometimes growing isn't about constantly changing things. Sometimes it's about making one good decision and giving nature the time to respond. 💚 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure.

This week, the plants were defoliated, selectively topped, and lollipopped to prepare them for the flip to flower next week. So far, I'm very happy with the AC Infinity wick watering system. It's been working great and has made watering much more convenient.

The week before I topped this baby’s and I’ve added some LST clips . Hasn’t started showing signs of preflower yet. What’s the longests it’s taken your autos to flower ? Just curious. Be back next week with another update . Happy Growing 🌱

Just water

Week 10, 3/5/2020 - 10/5/2020, as you can see she almost has overtaken the tent, she is 1 meter high now, and I think now she 's into full flowering mode. Buds are already glittery and cant wait to see them swell. Her scent is spices and a bit of a diesel.

It is growing slowly but steadily. For mainlining she isn't the right choice but I'm confident that she fills the screen for ⅔. I would have liked to give her an extra week so that she could fill the frame completely, but her neighbor is growing rapidly and should start flowering. So they are entering this new phase of life together. Light Power: 60% Day 47 Photoshooting Last vegi day

So those dying branches are what root rot looks like :s She is still growing ok, I'm smoking the branches that die. I've added Great White for some bacteria as i read that can help with root rot, hopefully it slows it down so at least buds grow.
