Great week this week! Yanked out the stunted smaller plant as she was not growing anymore. Made a little room for the larger one. Doing bending almost daily trying to keep her off the light and out of the fan. Ppm was at around 200 when I pulled the smaller plant. I then added 1/3 nutrients. Ppm at 826. Ph was a little low in the 5.5 so I raised it up 5.8-6.1 or so. Ph seems to fluctuate a lot as the pump moves the water around. Flowers are plumping up. The plant is so big I can barely get into the basin. Daily water flushing was helping the roots a lot last week to keep off the brown. I figure she has 1-2 weeks left as she is an auto and waaayyyyy past her due date. There is 0 room for the new plant to grow so I think she will end up not working out, I might cut back the big girl to make room, not sure yet. Most of the harvested little plant will go to bubble hash basket. I will update later.

5/29 - 6/5 Flowering Week 3 🌡️28c 💧Tap water 🌀 55% Defoliation during this week 6/5 Stretch seems to end and buds swell up

Def worth the grow, took a good bit longer than expected though that is for sure.

10th week, the smaller Strawberry G was already harvested. 5 grams dry weight. Twig snap two days ago I was out smoked it. Head buzz, Strawberry taste was light and delicious. High lasted about 4 hours. I have a habit of harvesting with hardly any amber so the potency is at its peak.

Happy Star Wars Day@all :-D My ladies are doing great. I gave myself a CO2 measuring device and a humidity god. The thing does what it's supposed to do. All of them except Iris have been in bloom since 2 days. I just stressed them out and tied them down. A few large leaves also had to believe in it. Iris comes later. Have a nice weekend@all

Day 8-06/12/22 seed is out and growing!!!!

💚 Amnesia Haze Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 5 | The Elegant Stretch Before the Storm Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! Every week these ladies remind me why phenotype hunting is such an exciting journey. Today’s spotlight belongs to Amnesia Haze Auto – Pheno A, a plant that’s beginning to reveal the classic characteristics many growers hope to see from an Amnesia Haze. Tall… Graceful… Open… And now officially beginning her flowering journey. While many of her neighbours are building dense canopies, this lady has chosen elegance, creating a beautifully structured framework that should allow every future flower to enjoy plenty of light and airflow. ⸻ 🌱 The 12/12 From Seed Adventure For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is being grown using my favourite experiment: 12/12 From Seed. From the day these seeds germinated, they have lived under a 12 hours on / 12 hours off lighting schedule. The goal isn’t simply producing smaller plants. It’s about discovering how different genetics and different phenotypes naturally express themselves under identical conditions. Every plant shares: • The same grow room • The same environmental conditions • The same lighting • The same nutrition • The same training philosophy • The same care Only the genetics decide how each individual develops. Amnesia Haze Auto Pheno A is already showing a wonderfully classic sativa-style expression. ⸻ 🌿 Stretching With Purpose At approximately 75 cm, she’s among the taller ladies in the room and continues displaying excellent vertical growth. Rather than producing a dense bush, she’s built long internodal spacing with beautifully stacked branches reaching confidently toward the light. Those longer distances between nodes might look sparse now, but for flowering they’re actually a huge advantage. Each future bud site has room to breathe. Each branch receives excellent light penetration. Each cola has space to develop without excessive crowding. Sometimes less density early on creates better flowers later. ⸻ 🌸 Flowering Has Officially Begun This week marks an exciting transition. Fresh white pistils are now appearing across every growing tip, confirming that flowering has officially begun. Although she’s entering bloom, she’s still carrying plenty of vegetative momentum. This is completely normal. During this transition period the plant continues stretching while simultaneously beginning flower production. Because of that, her feeding program still reflects both stages of growth. She’s no longer purely vegetative. But she’s not yet fully flowering either. She’s standing right in the middle of one of the most important phases of her life cycle. ⸻ 🍃 Gentle Leaf Tucking Instead of Heavy Defoliation Training this week remained very gentle. Rather than removing healthy leaves, large fan leaves were carefully tucked beneath developing branches to expose additional flowering sites. Leaf tucking is one of my favourite techniques during this stage because it increases light penetration while allowing the plant to keep all of her valuable solar panels. Healthy leaves continue producing energy. Hidden branches receive more light. The canopy stays open. It’s a simple technique, but one that often delivers excellent results. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Through the Transition Since the room currently contains plants at slightly different stages of development, the feeding program reflects that transition. Instead of switching immediately to a full flowering recipe, the plants are currently receiving a carefully balanced combination of vegetative and flowering nutrients. Current nutrition includes: • Plagron Terra Grow • Plagron Terra Bloom • Power Buds • Sugar Royal • Power Roots • Pure Zym • pH adjustment using pH Plus and Lemon Kick This balanced approach allows the plants to continue supporting vigorous green growth while simultaneously providing the phosphorus, potassium, enzymes and biological support needed as flowers begin to develop. It’s all about easing them smoothly into bloom rather than making an abrupt change. ⸻ 🌡️ A Stable Environment One advantage of documenting every phenotype separately is that each plant shares the exact same controlled environment. Current room conditions include: • Day temperature: 31.1°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 72% • Solution temperature: 21.6°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 636 ppm Keeping these parameters consistent allows each phenotype to express its true genetic potential without environmental fluctuations becoming part of the equation. ⸻ 📸 This Week’s Gallery The photographs this week beautifully capture the beginning of her transformation. The full-plant portraits highlight her elegant sativa structure, with long branches and an impressive central leader dominating the canopy. The close-up images reveal clusters of fresh white pistils emerging from nearly every node, confirming that flowering has truly begun. One of my favourite details is the clean spacing between branches. Rather than competing for light, every future cola has its own place to develop. The healthy green foliage, strong stems and open architecture suggest this lady is preparing for an exciting flowering stretch over the coming weeks. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead Over the next two weeks I expect this Amnesia Haze to continue stretching before gradually shifting her energy toward building flowers. If she follows the classic Amnesia Haze profile, those long internodes should soon begin filling with elegant, elongated buds covered in bright white pistils. The framework is already there. Now it’s time for the flowers to write the next chapter. I can’t wait to watch her evolve. ⸻ 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Watching every phenotype develop its own personality while sharing the exact same environment continues to be one of the most rewarding parts of this project. 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 journeys. 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 consistent light powering every day of this grow. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable environment where each phenotype can express its full genetic potential. And finally, Growers Love and thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, sharing knowledge and joining me on this adventure. Every plant has its own story, and Amnesia Haze Auto Pheno A is only just beginning to tell hers. The stretch is underway, the first flowers are forming, and the best is still to come. 💚🌿

I started germination of 2 Critical purple kush beans on 29/12/2020. I pre moistened my rockwool cubes with ph balanced water to 6.4. Made sure the plugs were just damp and not soaked. Using a small wooden dowel I increased the size of the plugs pre made holes. Than I sowed my beans into the holes. Ripped off a small piece of rockwool and mulched it up. Lightly filled the holes in with the mulched rockwool. Than stuck the plugs into a misted humidity dome, to complete germination. Shouldn't take anymore than 4-5 days to see some sprouts. Once I see some cotlydon leaves bursting to the surface. I will get the plugs planted into some 1 gallon pots. Plus get these ladies situated into their home. Cant wait! Some Background information on my experience with CPK. I've ran this strain a good dozen times. It's a very short, robust, and branchy variety. Packs on fat dense colas with immaculate bud structre and trichome production. It's a fairly fast finisher and packs a real potent stoned. She gets very sexy purple highlights and hues. Some phenos more purple than others but I've always got color. She doesn't mind lst, and some good training work greatly increases yeilds. I've ran her inside and out and all times of the year. She seems to strive and flourish in any environment. Just give her that light and watch her grow! She packs a very signature kush pallet and she always has a spot in my rotation! Seedsman knocked it out the park with these genetics.

Week 4 Veg Report - TrolMaster Chronicles 🌱 What a week it’s been in the garden! We finally transplanted the Papaya Zoap into its final Autopot, and let me tell you, this plant is something special. Though her roots weren’t quite where I wanted them to be yet, the move was needed to help her catch up with the rest of the crew. She’s already looking fantastic in her new home, and I have no doubt she’s about to explode with growth in the coming days. Sometimes, you just have to trust the process, and I’m feeling like this is one of those moments. It’s almost as if the room itself is taking on a life of its own. 🌿 In fact, I’m starting to believe that what we’re building here is something greater than ourselves—there’s this energy in the room, a feeling of everything coming together perfectly. I can’t wait to see how this journey unfolds! Dialing in the VPD with TrolMaster’s Tech Now, let’s talk VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) and how I’ve been keeping everything in check with the Tend-X and the incredible (DSH-2U) Humidity Station. VPD is crucial to plant health—it’s all about finding that perfect balance between humidity and temperature to optimize transpiration and nutrient uptake. The (DSH-2U) Humidity Station, connected directly to my humidifier, has been an absolute game-changer in this regard. With its real-time data and automation, it allows me to monitor and adjust the RH with pinpoint accuracy. Simple yet brilliant, the (DSH-2U) Humidity Station is keeping my room at the sweet spot I need. Whether I’m tweaking the settings from my phone while I’m out and about or just fine-tuning things while relaxing at home, this machine does it all. It’s like having an extra pair of hands in the grow room—and when you’re managing something as complex as VPD, that’s invaluable! And yes, the TM+ Pro App—let’s not forget how awesome it is. I’m adjusting my grow room from the couch, the car, or even the bathroom 😜. I’ve said it before, but this app is making growing easier than ever. Feeding the Girls: The Perfect Blend 🌱 We’ve upped the game by adding CaMg-Boost at 0.25 ml/L to the feeding schedule. Along with the 1 ml/L of the all-in-one liquid, this brings the TDS up to 320 ppm, with a pH of 5.99 and solution temperature of 24.8°C. In the soil, readings are around 415 ppm, with temperatures hovering around 25°C The plants are absolutely thriving, and I can already see the difference this new feed is making. I can’t help but have a bit of fun with this process—it feels like I’m spoiling them with the best of the best. And they’re rewarding me with beautiful growth and vibrant green color. You know how it is, with the right care and attention, these plants are truly becoming a masterpiece in the making. 🌱 Shoutouts 💚 Big shoutout to TrolMaster and ThinkGrow LED for the phenomenal gear that’s making this grow smoother than ever. Also, massive thanks to Aptus Holland for their top-notch nutrition, and of course, to the community here on GrowDiaries—you guys keep the energy alive! 🌱 Last but definitely not least, shoutout to all the seed banks supporting this journey. You’ve been a huge part of this process, and I couldn’t do it without you! Remember, for exclusive behind-the-scenes content and updates in real time, head over to my Instagram and YouTube channels @DogDoctorOfficial. We’ve got tons of epic content lined up, and you won’t want to miss it! P.S. Let’s talk about the new Model One LED Bars—these beauties are not only powerful but super efficient. I’ve been able to dim them down, save on electricity costs, and still maintain an incredible PAR and spectrum. It’s all about fine-tuning the balance of power and performance, and these lights make it easy to get the best results while being eco-friendly. Whether you’re running them full throttle or dialing it back, you’re still getting optimal growth conditions for your plants. That’s the kind of innovation that takes your grow to the next level. 💡 Growers Love to all 🌿💚

Welcome back all looks like the fun begins, week four is here and gone with the flowers staring to stack. It looks like my suspicion was correct and the plants needed a PK boost from flowering. I gave them a booster on the 10th and in the timelapse you can see how they responded. The K deficiency looks like it was halted from going any further and might have reversed it a little in the leaves. I had to add a little food after all in the mid to late flowering stage, but you have to listen to what the plants are telling you even if you think they have everything they need. live and learn.

Here we are. Week 2. On the Day 8 video, I give my method on how I produce nearly zero larf and huge buds. It's easier than most think 😉

(12/2020) Day 18 Strawberry Pie has been doing great. I began LST training her three days ago. It was amazing to see the fast growth within the three days. The plant is looking very promising with many cola areas beginning to grow. I watered her yesterday with a half tablespoon of honey mixed within the 6.2 PH water. She seemed to like the watering and honey as she perked up afterwards. I will continue to LST the plant in a counter clockwise direction so that an even canopy creates. (12/23/2020) Week 3! I watered the Strawberry Pie also with 6.0 Phd water and a half tablespoon of honey melted in. I got the vibe she was thirsty. It is crazy to see the difference between three days of LST does.

Okay, thank you so much @SmokingTiki for donating me his first price of the fast buds TikTok challenge. And thank you Heather from @Fast_Buds for the super fast coordination and shipping. You both rock and I really appreciate this – it's just amazing 💚 Will start Germination tomorrow. UPDATE April 29th: Put the seeds directly in substrate on April 26th, three days later they already put her heads out of earth. It was a sunny day and it's just perfect for little Guava. Welcome little girl! 💚

I went on holidays for 5 days so I watered well before leaving

Chery Cola is one of my favorites and I just could not fix this one. I canceled this grow and threw most of it away. I vegged wrong and something happened to the dirt. grow a total loss... all the plants from this grow were junk, all from bugs. I had transplant issues, I got Bud Trainer cups for next time. I should have topped her but I didn't she was really really small. I have never grown this strain with any success at all.....I am starting over with a new one.... I fail at every attempt at Banana Purple Punch.... I will get it right next time!! even screwed up Apricot and that is almost impossible.... I think I will re-do this entire grow. The last one turned out beautiful.

Ya se ven algunos tricomas de color ámbar en la planta con menos ramas asi que le quedan un par de dias creo, la otra tomara una semana, lucen y huelen muy bien.

Week 7 Transplanted ivory from 1 gallon pot to 7 gallon felt bag on day 1. Tied her down again on day 3. Was going to top again but decided to wait till next week. Give her some time to recover. And get some roots spread out in the new soil.

Started flowering, looks massive, most of branches are covering each other, what can i do?😔
