Blueberry Muffin – Pheno A Week 7 | Every Plant Has Its Own Pace Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 If this is your first visit to the diary, welcome! This project follows twelve different cultivars growing together under exactly the same conditions. Every plant shares the same environment, lighting, irrigation system, nutrient solution and care. The only real variable is genetics, making this a fascinating opportunity to observe how each cultivar expresses itself when everything else remains constant. Blueberry Muffin Pheno A continues her journey under a strict 12/12 light schedule from seed, growing in a 15-litre AutoPot system beneath the Future of Grow Black Series LED, while being documented from germination through to harvest. One of the biggest lessons this project continues to teach is that no two plants read the same script. Some sprint ahead. Others take their time. Blueberry Muffin has clearly chosen the second option. ──────────────────────────── 🌸 Flower Development Flowering continues exactly as expected, although she remains one of the slower ladies in the room. The initial stretch is beginning to settle, while clusters of bright white pistils continue appearing across every flowering site. Buds are slowly beginning to define themselves, and although they aren't stacking aggressively yet, there is no doubt she has fully committed her energy to reproduction. At this stage I prefer to let the plants work without unnecessary interruptions. During the first two or three weeks of flowering they're busy redirecting energy from vegetative growth into flower production. Unless a plant truly needs intervention, I find it's often better to simply observe, let nature do its work and avoid creating unnecessary stress. Sometimes the best thing a grower can do... ...is nothing at all. ──────────────────────────── 🌿 Slowly Finding Her Colour Again Last week I mentioned that Blueberry Muffin was asking for a little more nutrition than some of her neighbours. That continues to be the case. She still isn't displaying the rich green colour I'd ultimately like to see, but the good news is that she's slowly responding. By the end of the week the foliage had noticeably improved, confirming that the adjustments are moving in the right direction. One of the challenges of running a room like this is that every plant shares the same reservoir. If this were a single-plant grow, I could tailor the nutrient solution specifically to her needs. But in a room containing twelve different genetics, the feeding programme has to serve the collective rather than the individual. Fortunately, the entire room reached the point where nutrient demand naturally increased this week, so the reservoir was adjusted accordingly. The increase wasn't made specifically for Blueberry Muffin, but it should help her continue recovering alongside the rest of the garden. Sometimes growing isn't about creating the perfect recipe for one plant. It's about finding the best balance for all of them. ──────────────────────────── 🌱 Structure & Personality Although she remains relatively compact compared to some of the other cultivars, Blueberry Muffin continues developing a very attractive structure. Her branches remain nicely spaced, the internodal distance is consistent, and light continues penetrating well throughout the canopy thanks to the gentle leaf management carried out during the vegetative stage. She's certainly not trying to be the biggest plant in the room. Instead, she's quietly building a neat framework that should support healthy flower development over the coming weeks. Not every champion announces themselves early. Some simply take a little longer to show what they're capable of. ──────────────────────────── 🌡️ Environment The flowering room continues running under stable conditions, allowing the plants to focus their energy on flower production. 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% 🥥 Root zone temperature: 21°C 💦 Nutrient solution temperature: 20.2°C ⚗️ pH: 5.8 ⚡ EC: 1.95 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: 693 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 Consistency remains one of the greatest allies during early flowering, and maintaining a stable environment helps every cultivar express its genetic potential as evenly as possible. ──────────────────────────── 🌱 Feeding The AutoPot system continues delivering fresh nutrient solution whenever required, allowing the root zone to remain consistently supplied throughout flowering. This week's reservoir consists of: Plagron Terra Bloom – 2 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Plagron Pure Zym – 1 ml/L Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L pH adjusted to 5.8 The increase to 2 ml/L of Terra Bloom reflects the overall nutritional demand of the room as flowering progresses. Blueberry Muffin appears to be benefiting from this adjustment, and I'll continue watching her closely over the coming weeks to see if her foliage continues returning to a deeper green. ──────────────────────────── 📸 Behind the Lens This week's photographs tell a story of patience. The flowers continue to develop steadily, fresh pistils cover every developing bud site, and the plant's elegant structure is becoming increasingly apparent. Perhaps the most interesting detail captured through the lens is the gradual improvement in leaf colour. It's subtle, but visible enough to suggest that she's beginning to settle into her new feeding regime. Photography often reveals progress that our eyes overlook during daily inspections. Looking back at previous weeks reminds me just how much can change in only a few days. ──────────────────────────── 🔍 Looking Ahead Over the next week I'll simply continue monitoring her progress without making unnecessary adjustments. I'm hoping to see the foliage continue regaining a richer green while the flowers begin putting more energy into stacking and bulking up. Blueberry Muffin may be taking her time... ...but that's perfectly fine. Every plant has its own rhythm, and one of the greatest lessons any grower can learn is knowing when to guide—and when to simply let the plant write its own story. ──────────────────────────── 💚 Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following this journey. Whether you've been here since germination or have only recently discovered the diary, I truly appreciate every visit, every comment, every question and every shared experience. Watching these twelve cultivars grow side by side has become an incredible learning opportunity, and it's even more rewarding because it's shared with such an amazing community. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can document their experiences and continue learning together. To Zamnesia, thank you for the fantastic Blueberry Muffin genetics and for allowing us to explore how this cultivar expresses itself under a unique 12/12-from-seed approach. To Plagron, thank you for providing the nutrients and growing media that support these plants through every stage of their journey. And to Future of Grow LED, thank you for delivering the light that powers this entire project and helps every phenotype reveal its own unique character. Finally, thank you for being part of this adventure. Every photograph, every observation and every lesson becomes more meaningful because it's shared with this incredible community. Growers Love, and I'll see you all next week as Blueberry Muffin continues finding her own pace through flower. 💚🌱

The time is quickly approaching, when these three girls will be harvested and whole-plant dried for like 2 weeks or so. I believe I will be harvesting this coming weekend after I check the maturity of the trichomes. I'm hoping that Big Lemon produces at least 2 LBS of dried flowers.

🌸 Pink Rosay Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 10 💗 Small Frame. Massive Flower Power. Still Absolutely Beautiful. Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And this girl... She's still shining. Actually, I think I'm becoming a little bit obsessed with her. 😂💗 Because every time I look at Pink Rosay Pheno A, I have the same thought: "I wish they were all this easy." Not because the other girls aren't beautiful. They are. I love every single one of them for different reasons. But this girl? She's just... easy. Easy to manage. Easy to move. Easy to photograph. Easy to inspect. Easy to care for. She doesn't take up much space. She doesn't demand much attention. She doesn't try to take over the room. And yet somehow... she's carrying an absolutely ridiculous amount of flower for the space she occupies. Small frame. Big personality. Lots of buds. Lots of density. Lots of beauty. And at Week 10? She's still doing exactly what she's been doing from the beginning. Shining. 💗✨ 🌱 The 8×8 Adventure — Same Room, Different Stories For anyone finding this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure. The concept is simple: Give twelve different plants essentially the same opportunity... and let them show us what they're capable of. Same room. Same general environmental strategy. Same 12/12 lighting schedule. Same irrigation philosophy. Same nutritional program. Same lighting ecosystem. Same grower. But different genetics. Different phenotypes. Different architectures. Different personalities. And Pink Rosay Pheno A has definitely developed one of my favourite personalities in the room. She's compact. She's dense. She's productive. She's beautiful. And she doesn't seem interested in making my life difficult. 😂💗 Honestly... I'll take that. 💗 I Really Love This Plant I think it's time to admit it. I really love this plant. There. I said it. 😂 There's something incredibly satisfying about a plant like this. You don't have to constantly work around her. You don't have to fight for access. You don't have to figure out how to move a giant structure without bumping into everything around it. You can simply pick her up, move her where you need her, inspect her, photograph her and put her back. And then you look at what she's carrying... and suddenly you realize: This little girl is not playing around. She's compact, yes. But she's carrying a lot. A lot of flowers. A lot of density. A lot of developing weight. And a lot of personality. That's a combination I absolutely appreciate. 🌸 Small Plant. Huge Flower Presence. The height hasn't changed dramatically. She's still around 111 cm. And honestly? That's perfect. I don't need her to become taller. I don't need another metre of plant. I don't need her reaching for the ceiling. Because she's already using her available space incredibly well. Look at the flowering structure. Look at how much of her frame is dedicated to flowers. Look at the density. This is what makes her so interesting. She's not producing a huge amount of empty architecture around the flowers. She's compact. She's efficient with her space. And she's filling that space with beautiful developing flowers. It's almost like someone took a much larger plant and compressed it. 😂 And I absolutely love it. 🌿 Peculiar Is Beautiful One word keeps coming back to me with this girl: peculiar. And I mean that as a compliment. She's not generic. She doesn't look like every other plant in the room. She has her own proportions. Her own flower distribution. Her own architecture. Her own way of occupying space. And that's exactly the sort of thing I enjoy finding during an experiment like this. I like unique. I like unusual. I like plants that make me stop and look twice. Pink Rosay does that. And the more I watch her develop, the more I appreciate just how special her expression is. ❄️ The Density Keeps Building At Week 10, the flowers are becoming increasingly substantial. The developing buds have that wonderful compact appearance that has become one of her defining characteristics. The calyxes are stacking. The flowers are gaining density. The pistils are continuing their progression. And the resin is becoming increasingly apparent across the flowering structures. There is something particularly satisfying about seeing these flowers photographed at this stage. From a distance, you see a compact flowering plant. Get closer... and the story changes completely. Suddenly you're looking at layers of calyxes. Pistils. Sugar leaves. Resin. Textures. Tiny details everywhere. And because this plant is so compact, I can actually get around her easily enough to photograph all of those different angles. That's another little advantage of having a plant like this. She's basically a photographer's dream. 😂📸💗 📸 She Makes My Job Easy I think this deserves its own section. Because growing isn't only about what the plant produces. It's also about the relationship you develop with the plant while you're growing it. And Pink Rosay is simply... convenient. She's easy to reach. Easy to move. Easy to inspect. Easy to photograph. Easy to work around. She doesn't turn every little task into an engineering project. 😂 And when you're managing an entire 8×8 room full of different plants, those little things matter. Space matters. Accessibility matters. Being able to see what you're doing matters. Being able to get a camera into the right position matters. And this girl makes all of that incredibly straightforward. Then she rewards you with beautiful flowers. That's a pretty good deal. ✂️ No Need to Keep Touching Her The selective defoliation from the previous weeks has done its job. The plant has plenty of healthy foliage remaining. The flowering structure is visible. The canopy is manageable. And I'm not looking for reasons to take more leaves simply because we're now at Week 10. There's no prize for using the scissors more often. 😂 The goal is a healthy, functional plant. And Pink Rosay looks exactly like that. So we're letting her keep doing her thing. The leaves she has are working. The flowers are developing. The plant is progressing. There's no reason to manufacture intervention where none is needed. Sometimes the best cultivation decision is simply: leave her alone. And that's exactly what we're doing. 💡 Still Eating Photons The lighting environment remains consistent with the rest of the adventure. The Future of Grow Black Series LED continues providing the primary overhead lighting, while Lumiflora contributes additional light into the lower canopy. And Pink Rosay continues converting all of that available energy into exactly what we want to see: plant. Leaves. Branches. Flowers. Resin. Density. Development. It's another beautiful example of how twelve plants can share essentially the same environment while expressing themselves completely differently. Some turn that opportunity into height. Some into enormous branches. Some into sprawling canopies. Pink Rosay seems to have decided: "I'll just make every centimetre count." And honestly? I love that strategy. 💧 Feeding the Little Powerhouse The nutrition remains consistent with the flowering program used throughout the room: 🌸 Plagron Terra Bloom — 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L ✨ Plagron Green Sensation — 1 ml/L 🍯 Plagron Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH adjustment as required The current recorded solution strength remains around: EC: ~2.0 mS/cm with: pH: 6.0 Watering has increased slightly to approximately: 💧 1.4 L per plant / 24h And visually? She's happy. That's the important part. No need to complicate something that's working. We provide the water. We provide the nutrients. We provide the environment. And she does the rest. 🌡️ Week 10 Conditions Current recorded conditions: 🌸 Flowering: Week 10 📏 Height: 111 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 🌡️ Day temperature: 29.9°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC/TDS: ~2.0 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 🌬️ CO₂: 529 ppm ? Pot size: 15 L 💦 Watering: ~1.4 L per plant / 24h The environment remains stable. And stability is exactly what I want while this girl continues finishing her story. 🌸 A Lot of Flower in a Small Package This is probably the best way I can describe her right now. A lot of flower in a small package. 😂💗 She doesn't need a huge footprint. She doesn't need an enormous canopy. She doesn't need to stretch another fifty centimetres. She's already doing an excellent job with what she's got. And when I compare her to some of the enormous plants in the room, the difference is almost funny. There are girls that require two people to properly navigate around. Then there's Pink Rosay. "Excuse me, little lady." Pick her up. Move her. Photograph her. Inspect her. Done. 😂 And then you look again... How the hell are you carrying all of that? 🔬 This Is Exactly Why Phenotypes Are Fun Pink Rosay is another reminder that size isn't everything. If I judged plants only by height, I'd miss so much. Height doesn't tell me how efficiently the plant uses its space. It doesn't tell me how flowers are distributed. It doesn't tell me how dense those flowers become. It doesn't tell me how easy the plant is to manage. And it certainly doesn't tell me how much I might enjoy growing it. Pink Rosay has checked a lot of those boxes. She's compact. She's manageable. She's productive-looking. She's beautiful. She's peculiar. And she's fascinating. That's a pretty damn good phenotype. 📸 This Week's Gallery And of course... the camera loves her. The wider photographs show the compact architecture. The closer photographs reveal the flower density. Then you get into the really close shots... and it's just layers of detail. Flowers packed together. Pistils. Calyxes. Resin. Sugar leaves. Textures. And that unmistakable Pink Rosay structure. This is exactly why I enjoy macro photography so much. The plant can look completely different depending on how close you get. From across the room: small plant. From five centimetres away: holy shit, look at that flower. 😂💗 💗 One of My Favourites in the Room I know I've said it before. And I'll probably say it again. I love all these plants. Every single phenotype has something that makes me want to keep watching. But Pink Rosay Pheno A? She's definitely one of the girls I have developed a soft spot for. Maybe it's the compactness. Maybe it's the flower-to-plant ratio. Maybe it's how easy she is to work with. Maybe it's simply because she looks so damn good. Probably all of the above. And that's okay. Sometimes you grow a plant and somewhere along the way you realize: "Yeah... you're one of my favourites." That's this girl. 🔭 Looking Ahead And now I'm very curious to see what the next stage brings. She's already carrying substantial flower. She's already dense. She's already beautiful. But we're not writing the ending yet. There is still development ahead. More maturation. More resin. More density. More changes in the flowers. And eventually... the final version of Pink Rosay Pheno A will reveal herself. That's the part I love. You can look at a plant and think you already know what you're going to get. Then she spends another week surprising you. So let's not rush. Let's keep providing. Let's keep observing. Let's keep photographing. And let's see what this little powerhouse decides to do next. ✨ Final Thoughts — Let the Little Lady Shine Week 10. And I'm still looking at Pink Rosay thinking: "I wish every plant was this easy." 😂💗 Not because I want every plant to be the same. Absolutely not. The differences are the whole reason we're doing this adventure. But from a grower's perspective? A compact plant that doesn't demand much space... doesn't make every task complicated... is easy to move... easy to inspect... easy to photograph... easy to care for... and then carries a huge amount of beautiful flower? Yes please. I'll take more of those. 😂 She's small. But she's carrying a lot. A lot of buds. A lot of density. A lot of developing weight. A lot of resin. And an enormous amount of personality. She's peculiar. She's beautiful. She's manageable. She's productive. And she's become one of those plants that I genuinely enjoy spending time with. The ruler says: 111 cm. The plant says: "That's all I need." 😂💗 And you know what? She's right. She doesn't need to be bigger. She doesn't need to be taller. She doesn't need to occupy more space. She has already shown us that sometimes... less plant can mean more plant. And Pink Rosay Pheno A? She's proving that beautifully. So let's keep giving her what she needs. Water. Nutrition. Light. A stable environment. And a little bit of love. Then we'll step back... and let her do what she does best. Shine. 💗🌸❄️✨ 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a place to document this 8×8 Adventure and share these different expressions week after week. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Pink Rosay genetics behind this beautiful little powerhouse. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of the journey. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for providing the main lighting driving the room. Thank you to Lumiflora for bringing the under-canopy lighting dimension into the experiment. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping maintain the environment behind the scenes. And, of course, thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every photograph. Every week. It all becomes part of the story. And Pink Rosay Pheno A has certainly written one of my favourite chapters. She's not the tallest. She's not the biggest. She doesn't take up much space. She doesn't demand much attention. But look at her. Look at what she's carrying. A compact frame absolutely loaded with flowers. Dense. Beautiful. Peculiar. Easy to manage. Easy to love. And somehow becoming more impressive every single week. This little lady has absolutely earned her spotlight. So let's give it to her. 💗🌸✨ Small frame. Massive flower power. Keep shining, Pink Rosay. Growers Love & Happy Growing! 🌱💚🌸

Thursday, July16th. Solocup Challenge 2020. @Silky_smooth asked me to Participate. and well why not Iam always open to new Challenges, And I think It will be challengeing. Never grown in a Solocup Before So Iwas thinking a While wich Strains i should take, And i decided to take good growers and resiliant ones. I´ve chosen 3 Strains , 1 Photoperiod and 2 Automatics "Rock Machine" from Doctor´s Choice I started like always in soaking the Seed I took a Bavarian Beerjug called " a hoibe Maß" , its a 0.5l Jug I am thinking about tthe Drainage Material i should take Claypebbles? Claygranules? Mesh? Perlite=? So Pls tell me what you prefer,,,, thy Friday Seed went under a wet Kitchensponge Saturday Seed cracked, Sunday Seeds were Planted. I took Claypebbles and let them soak and wash them a little then into the Jug and some additional Perlite Filled uo with my Soilmix and " Living Organics" Some drips of water.... done Friday# I forgot to update The seedling shows up... but still in the shell

23.09.23- 85 день жизни . Глобальных изменений не происходит , шишки продолжают толстеть и оплакать глаз . Это самое большое растение из тех , которые мне доводилось растить ! На данном этапе ее рост около 180-185. Сегодня я подвязал и распределил все толстые ветки под лампы , из-за своих размеров они прогибаются под своим весом . Теперь она получает все 300 w 28.09.23- 90 дней от прорастания ! Изменения идут медленно , цветы растут а листья желтеют . Думаю еще 2 недели и финишь ! Сейчас она очень огромная , а ее цветы размером с бутылку ✨🍁
