Week 4 was defined by the discovery and correction of a significant salt and nutrient buildup in the medium. On Day 21 (Jan 20), runoff opened at 2100 PPM — well above safe range — triggering an emergency flush. Feed input came in at 418 PPM at pH 6.99, and multiple plain water rinses at pH 5.8 were run through the medium until runoff dropped to 1180 PPM at pH 5.87, EC 2370 µS/cm, salt 0.11%. Medium was flushed down approximately 920 PPM in a single session. No further watering for 24 hours following the flush to allow the root zone to stabilize. Environment ran well overall — temperatures holding 76–78°F lights on and ~70°F lights off, humidity steady at 68–70% with brief transient dips when the humidifier tank ran empty. VPD tracking ~0.9–1.0 kPa throughout the week. PPFD running 380–420 µmol/m²/s. CO2 ambient with no supplementation. Day 25 (Jan 24) feed came in at 642 PPM at pH 5.91 — notably the water temperature was very cold at 4.7–6.0°C, well below the ideal 20–22°C range. Cold water can slow nutrient uptake and stress roots. Worth monitoring in future sessions to ensure water is allowed to reach room temperature before feeding. No runoff recorded this session. By end of week, runoff had settled to 1440 PPM at pH 5.8–5.9 — trending in the right direction. Feeding plan reset going into Week 5: ½ gallon at 600–700 PPM, ¼–⅓ strength veg nutrients only, no boosters, pH 5.9 target with 10–15% runoff. Goal was a gentle nutrient reintroduction to signal roots to resume uptake without risking a salt rebound. The Sundae Thumper continued developing steadily through the stress of the flush week.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Beginning of week... Heat stess.. Light burn.. Runoff pH is out of wack.. But the colas are still so freaking massive! This will be the last week of feeding.. Then flushing for 2 weeks!.. FloraKleen is waiting for me already lol.. But the trichomes are already looking pretty close to being ready.. From what I can see.. There are about 50% cloudy/milky and 50% clear.. I can find an amber here and there.. But I think I've got this timed out perfectly!.. Cant wait to taste these super fat, dense, fruity smelling nugs! Damn she is doing magical things even after the abuse she has endured.. Awesome strain ILGM.. For sure... Mid week.. Found a few nanners here and there.. Ugh.. Understandable tho.. All the heat and light stress.. Whoops.. No seeds that I can see yet.. Just going to finish up this week by feeding at only 50% and pretty much cutting out almost 100% of Nitrogen. And not sure why.. But aldo added some Vitamin B Complex.. Its a sublingual liquid that you put under your tongue for energy or some shit.. I only put .25 mL/3 L.. Again.. Idk why lol.. Now that I have cranked the power of the light down, the leaves have kinda slowed down on the suicide rate lol.. Not as many are trying to curl up anymore.. Still kinda curled.. But they have actually opened up a little since. She is looking pretty good.. Still been watering/feedingnat 5.8 pH and the runoff is barely coming out at 6.3 pH still.. Once I see it go down to 6.0.. Then I will make the proper adjustments needed to try and keep it at 6.3.. But still no stress frok this weird pH issue crap I got goin on.. I just need to get some new coco/perlite and a new fabric pot.. Good thing I have already got all that stuff stocked up! But this has been an interesting grow for sure.. I'm ready to chop her down and see what she tastes like! And start a new girlie of course! Lol.. But as for this week.. I will have one more feed day and I am just going to do it exactly how I did today, then begin the 2 week flush! Trichomes are exactly where they need to be.. Even the trichomes on the foxtail calyxes are gettin there pretty quick too.. As far as I can tell so far... Awesome strain from ILGM.. Awesome as fuuuuck! Lol End of week.. Since I've turned the power of the light down, the leaves haven't been dying off like I thought they would be because of all the heat stress and light burn.. But tomorrow I begin the flush! Today was not a feed day so I guess I already began lol.. I used rain water (7.0 pH 30 PPM) but of course I pH'd it down to 5.8 so that the runoff would come out 6.3.. Idk why this isn't clearing out.. But tomorrow I will use the FloraKleen in pH'd rain water.. This week I may water in the AM and the PM to help flush out medium quicker. Gonna try and use just rain water for the flush.. If I run out of rain water I will use distilled.. Either of the 2 should be a good choice! But I'm so excited to be harvesting soon! On to the next!!!...

Penso proprio che questa volta non si riprenderà ma riuscirà ad arrivare alla fine ugualmente! Evidentemente ci sono danni a livello radicale che non sono reversibili e le foglie giovani piegate in quel modo così ad artiglio, sono un segno di una precedente sovra irrigazione che ha causato tutto ciò, mi sembra strano che oltre ad essere così accartocciate siano rimaste comunque scure, senza segni di carenza di azoto o qualsiasi nutriente, ma guardando nelle due settimane indietro, il vaso ci metteva troppo tempo per asciugarsi e questo già faceva presagire un problema di assorbimento per troppa acqua, per fortuna è stata recuperata in tempo ma questo genere di problemi sarebbe sempre meglio evitarlo…mai lasciare in mano le piante alla mamma insomma 😵

Flowering day 18 since time change to 12 / 12 h Hey guys :-) The ladies have recovered well from the cold thanks to the heating mat and have developed beautifully 👍. During the check today I saw that despite spraying neem oil 3 times, there are still a few trips :-( . Now I've ordered nematodes again specifically against trips for leaf and substrate. I will use that immediately 👍. Watering was done twice this week, each time with 1.3 l (nutrients see table above) Next week I will remove the lowermost shoots so that the energy goes into the upper buds. Fresh osmosis water was mixed with tap water and put into the 100 liter tank so that the water can stand and I'll have enough next week :-) Otherwise everything was cleaned. Have fun and stay healthy 💚🙏🏻 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

This little lady grew a little bigger than the others. The smell! I've been working to finish my dry room. I'll have 3 rooms dedicated to my medicinal gardens once all is said and done.

Brought the second FC 3000 into the tent, gave the girls some space defoliated and tried to do some extra lst. One of the branches on the middle plant snapped, had to tie together. Took a few days to adjust them to the light all the while defoliating and opening them up. They were deff stressed for a couple days but once I got everything dialed in they started to take off again. Am only running the lights on 80 percent max capacity the light is so intense. It's a 5 x 2.6 x 6.6 foot tent. I wish I had a par reader oh well.

Moved to a bigger tent and added two additional plants so I could have everything in one spot. The plants in this diary are on the left side of the tent and along the back wall. The other plants are another GSC clone that is a little smaller, and a Wedding Cake from Seedking.com. they are being grown the same way as the others. I'm very impressed with how the GSC clones are flowering relative to the gorilla glue. They are just way more dense and bigger flowers. Fingers crossed the gorilla glue fills out.

🌸 Pink Rosay Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B | Week 9 💗 The Little Dwarf That I’m Very Glad I Kept Some plants make you stop because they're enormous. Some make you stop because they're covered in huge flowers. And then there are plants that make you stop because you simply can't believe how much personality they've managed to fit into such a tiny body. Pink Rosay Pheno B is one of those plants. She's still a dwarf. 😂 There is no point pretending otherwise. She's tiny. She's compact. She's becoming incredibly dense. And honestly... I absolutely love her. When I look back at the beginning of this grow, I have to admit something. If I had only been growing a few plants, I probably would never have given a phenotype like this the opportunity to finish. She's just too small. There would have been a temptation to look at her, compare her to the others, and think: "Maybe this one isn't worth the space." But that's exactly why I love having twelve different genetics in the 8×8 Adventure. I didn't remove her. I gave her time. And now? She's standing there covered in flowers and frost, looking absolutely adorable. And I'm very, very happy I kept her. 🌸 Week 9 – Still Tiny. Still Beautiful. Pink Rosay Pheno B is currently around 63 cm. Sixty-three. 😂💗 Compared with some of the giants in this garden, she's practically a bonsai. But here's the funny thing. When I look at her now, I don't really see the height anymore. I see the plant. And the plant is beautiful. Her structure is extremely compact, the internodes are tightly packed, and the flowers are becoming increasingly dense throughout that little framework. She's not wasting much space. She's not reaching endlessly upward. She's simply putting everything she has into the structure she already built. And that's becoming her signature. Tiny frame. Dense flowers. Big personality. 💗 The Dwarf Is Getting Dense This is probably the biggest change I'm seeing this week. She's becoming really dense. The flowers are no longer looking like little isolated flowering sites scattered across a miniature plant. They're becoming proper little clusters. The calyxes are becoming more pronounced. The pistils are progressing. And the resin is becoming increasingly visible across the flowers and surrounding sugar leaves. There's a lovely contrast developing between the dark green foliage and the increasingly frosty flowers. And honestly... she looks fantastic. Not fantastic for a dwarf. Just fantastic. That's an important distinction. Because I don't want to judge her by the expectations I'd have for a much larger plant. I'm judging her for what she is. And what she is becoming is a beautiful, compact, heavily flowering little plant. ❄️ The Frost Is Starting to Take Over And this is where things get particularly interesting. The frost is becoming much more obvious. The flowers have that increasingly sparkling appearance that makes you want to get closer and look again. Then closer again. And then... "Okay, I need the macro lens." 😂📸 The resin is becoming part of her personality now. It's no longer something you have to search for. You can see it. And I have a feeling she's going to become even more interesting as she continues toward maturity. I wouldn't be surprised if, toward the end, she becomes one of those little plants where the amount of frost makes you completely forget how small she actually is. She's certainly heading in that direction. 🌿 A Tiny Plant With Serious Density One thing I really appreciate about this phenotype is how compressed everything is. On a large plant, you can have flowers separated by considerable distances. Here? Everything is happening within a very small space. Branches are short. Nodes are close. Flowers are packed into the architecture. And now those flowers are gaining density. It's almost like watching a miniature version of a full flowering plant. Everything is there. Just... smaller. 😂 And that's what makes photographing her so much fun. A wide photograph tells you the story: "Look how tiny she is." Then you get the camera close. And suddenly... "Holy shit, look at those flowers." That's Pink Rosay Pheno B. ✂️ The Canopy – Now We Let Her Be We already gave this little lady her selective defoliation when the canopy needed opening. The objective was never to strip her. It was to remove unnecessary congestion and give the remaining structure a little more room for light and airflow. Now? I'm leaving her alone. She's doing exactly what I want her to do. The remaining foliage is healthy. The flowers are developing. The structure is becoming denser. And there is no reason to start interfering just because we have scissors available. 😂 This is another lesson this tiny plant has taught me. Sometimes cultivation is intervention. Sometimes cultivation is restraint. And right now, restraint wins. Let her finish. 💡 Small Canopy, Big Photon Story The Future of Grow Black Series lighting continues providing the primary light from above, while the Lumiflora under-canopy system remains part of the overall flowering environment. With a plant this compact, the relationship between light and structure is fascinating. There isn't a huge vertical distance between the different parts of the plant. Instead, everything is compressed into this little flowering package. And as the flowers become denser, I'm very interested to see how she finishes under the same environmental philosophy as the much larger plants surrounding her. She's another reminder that light doesn't dictate phenotype. It gives the plant an opportunity. The genetics decide what happens with that opportunity. And Pink Rosay Pheno B decided: "I'm going to stay tiny." 😂 Fair enough. I respect the commitment. 🌱 The Experiment Is Working Exactly As Intended This little plant is one of the best examples of why I wanted to run this 8×8 Adventure the way I did. If I had selected plants purely based on early size, she probably wouldn't have made the cut. And I would have missed this. I would have missed watching an extreme compact phenotype develop. I would have missed seeing how much flower she can actually carry inside that miniature architecture. And most importantly... I would have missed the lesson. Not every plant needs to be a monster. Not every phenotype needs to produce enormous numbers. Sometimes the value of a plant is simply in what it teaches you. And this little girl has already taught me plenty. 💗 The Sister Comparison Is Fascinating Her sister is a completely different story. Same genetic line. Same room. Same general cultivation philosophy. And yet... look at them. One is compact. The other is larger. One has a very compressed architecture. The other expresses herself differently. One looks almost miniature. The other carries herself like a more conventional flowering plant. And that's exactly what phenotype hunting is about. You don't grow two sisters to make them identical. You grow them to discover how different they can become. Pink Rosay Pheno B has certainly answered that question. Very different. And I'm glad she did. 💧 Feeding & Environment The current conditions remain stable: 🌸 Flowering: Week 9 📏 Height: approximately 63 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: approximately 6.0 ⚡ EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 🌬️ CO₂: approximately 639 ppm ? Pot size: 15 L 💦 Watering: approximately 1 L per plant / 24h The feeding program remains centered around the same flowering nutrition approach used throughout the project. No unnecessary changes. No chasing numbers. She's developing beautifully, so consistency remains the priority. 🌬️ Tiny Doesn't Mean Forgotten One of the things I really enjoy about hand-watering this plant is that she gets exactly the same attention as the giants. She may be tiny. But she's still part of the experiment. Every time I approach her, I get to look at the flowers. Check the foliage. Watch the resin. Look for changes. And because she's so compact, it's actually incredibly easy to observe her closely. There aren't hundreds of centimetres of plant to inspect. Everything is right there. She's basically saying: "Come on. You can't miss me." 😂💗 And I don't. 🔭 Looking Ahead – I Have a Feeling About This One I'm not expecting a huge producer. Let's be realistic. She's 63 cm. She's a dwarf phenotype. Her total flowering structure is naturally limited by the amount of plant she has. But that's not what I'm watching anymore. I'm watching quality. I'm watching density. I'm watching resin development. I'm watching how those flowers mature. And I'm very curious to see where she ends up. Because she has already exceeded what I expected from her. She survived. She flowered. She developed. She became dense. And now she's getting increasingly frosty. That's already a win. And who knows... perhaps by the end of this journey, she will become an even more interesting little specimen than I expected. 💗 Maybe I Should Have Kept More Dwarfs This is something I've been thinking about. If this had been a smaller garden, I probably wouldn't have grown a phenotype like this. And that's exactly why having a larger project is so valuable. You get to see the extremes. You get to see the weird ones. The tall ones. The short ones. The explosive ones. The quiet ones. The strange ones. The beautiful ones. And sometimes... the tiny ones. Pink Rosay Pheno B belongs firmly in that last category. She's not here to win the height competition. She's not here to dominate the tent. She's here to show us what happens when her genetics decide: "We're going small." And honestly? I'm loving every minute of it. ❤️ Final Thoughts – The Little Dwarf I Almost Didn't Keep I think this might be my favourite part of Pink Rosay Pheno B's story. Not how big she is. Not how much she might produce. Not whether she can compete with her sister. It's the fact that she almost wouldn't have had this opportunity. If I had fewer plants, I might have looked at her and decided she wasn't worth the space. But because this is the 8×8 Adventure... she stayed. And now? I'm really glad she did. Because this little dwarf has become one of the plants I genuinely enjoy looking at. She's cute as fuck. 😂💗 She's tiny. She's compact. She's becoming extremely dense. She's getting frostier. She's beautifully structured. And she's completely comfortable being exactly what she is. I don't need her to become a giant. I don't need her to suddenly explode in size. I don't need her to prove anything. I just want to see her finish. And I have a feeling that when she does, whatever she gives us is going to be very, very nice. Perhaps later, when everything is finished and the entire garden has told its story, we'll decide what makes the most sense for this little harvest. But that's a story for another day. Right now... she's still growing. Still shining. Still getting frostier. Still being the tiniest girl in the room. And still making me smile every time I look at her. 🌸💗❄️ Pink Rosay Pheno B. The little dwarf. The tiny survivor. The compact beauty. The one I almost didn't keep... and the one I'm now very happy I did. So let's give her the spotlight. Because she has absolutely earned it. A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for these beautiful genetics, Plagron for the nutrition, Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting, Lumiflora for bringing the under-canopy lighting into the project, TrolMaster for the environmental control, and of course to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure on GrowDiaries. Every phenotype doesn't have to be enormous. Every plant doesn't have to be a champion. Sometimes the smallest plant in the room gives you one of the biggest lessons. And sometimes... the little dwarf becomes one of your favourites. This one certainly became one of mine. Until next week... Tiny plant. Huge personality. Getting seriously frosty. 💗❄️ Growers love and happy growing! 🌱💚

Die erste Blütewoche startet. Eigentlich wollte ich vor Einleitung der Blüte alle Männchen aussortieren, aber der Plan hat sich wie so oft geändert. Zum Ende der Woche habe ich 7 Männchen aussortiert, es bleiben also 6 Weibchen. Ich habe versucht die entstandenen Lücken aufzufüllen. Es sind 3x Red Mandarine dazugekommen. Leider musste ich die Wurzelballen "anpassen" damit alles passt - mal schauen ob sie den Stress verkraften.

Hi growers! this is my first grow and I will try to be as detailed as possible. The first video is day 2 and the second video is day 6. The first pot is the Fast buds BlackBerry Auto, second pot is the Fast buds Zkittles Auto and the Two at the back are the SweetSeeds Honey Peach CBD. originally the back left pot was meant to be a Fast buds Tangie'matic but the seed didn't germinate so around day 4 of the grow I decided to germinate another Honey Peach CBD Seed. Equipment using is: 2 x 300w Viperspectra LED Lights 4 x 12L Fabric Pots 2 x 9" Clip Fans 1 Standing oscillating fan 1 Thermostat with RH reading and a cheapish Carbon Filter kit from EBay. As this is my first grow i have been on quite a tight budget but if things go well I will be slowly upgrading all of the equipment over time. Notes: As you can tell by the video I am very limited to space, I can't remember the exact measurements but I think its 48inches cubed

At the end of week 3 I topped one of the strawberry cough they are all looking good and starting to veg I’m all caught up with the grow diary’s and will add at the end of every week. I’m in Australia and did start a little late into the season but hope to get a decent grow in they will be at my brothers once transplanted and he has a few aswel that I will add into the grow log nothing but sun and water only use a little thrive that’s from Bunnings that I get from my pops shed. They will be in a nicer cleaner soil when transplanted into veggie beds and will have chicken poo as a nutrient source first time ever using chicken poo so see how it goes. Will keep the grow log updated and hopefully everything goes all well for the travel and transplant for the plants in the next few days

Day 43 - First day of week 7 today and she looks really good just not sure if she’s really starting to flower yet. I’m hoping this is just typical of the GC strain. Day 44 - No major changes, she’s growing and I’m loving the looks of her. Will continue uploading daily pictures. Day 45 - She’s looking really good and budding more and more each day. Gave her straight pH’d water today and tomorrow and will give her another feeding on Saturday. She’s drinking almost a gallon of water a day. Day 46 - Things are looking good with this girl. Bud sites are growing daily and this thing is a beauty. Gave her another feeding of just pH’d water and will “feed” her tomorrow. Day 47 - ALL is looking good and she’s looking purdy. Gave her a feeding with the foxfarm nutes today. Did a true measurement to the biggest branch and she’s at 25.5”. Will continue to measure each day to see how much she’s growing in a 24 hour period. Day 48 - Looking gorgeous and still stretching. Grew another two inches and is sitting at 27.5” right now. She’s really starting to fill in now and looking forward to the next few weeks. Day 49 - The way thing thing is growing, she’s gonna be a beast. Gave her straight pH’d water tonight and will give her a feeding tomorrow. Looks like she finally stopped stretching, sitting at 27.5” still so hopefully she’ll start putting on the weight.
