Semana del 3 al 9 de Mayo. Como puse en la pregunta de la semana anterior, ya vieron que tengo una chica hermafrodita. No tengo otro indoor para ponerla, así que la saqué a otra habitación y le puse la TGL60 a ver que pasa. Las otras tres plantas siguen en el indoor con la TGL 220. Como estaban con la malla, me costó mucho sacarla del indoor. Tuve que atarla porque las ramas no se sostenían muy bien por si mismas, así que ahora tengo este ramo que cocecharé más o menos el 16 de mayo. No parecen engordar mucho los cogollos, creo que los insectos afectaron más de lo que pensaba, sobretodo porque estos atacan las raíces. Las luces estaban a 15cm porque es lo que sugiere el fabricante para este periodo. Consideren que no es el clásico led y ya está. Ahora están a 20cm por miedo a que vayan a sufrir algún estrés lumínico.

Impresionante colonia de tricomas en estas semanas y terpenos ricos ricos se viene muy rico esto.. En este cultivo use solo un. Par de riegos foliares con compost te brew.

Haven't updated my grow diary for a little more than two weeks due to a severe back flare up. Yup, bad back strain, which has made it hard to sit, lay, stand for any duration of time. Suffice to say, much has happened since last update. Bucket change and upping nutrient (ppm) levels as I transitioned her to flower. And in that time, she received one defoliation in veg and a recent (and last) defoliation in flower. At this point, I just need to maintain healthy roots, consistent environment, and proper water levels with feedings. She's due another bucket change soon as ppm levels dropping and ph is adjusting upwards every reading. This is good sign from my understanding as a first time DWC grower. As far as feeding, lowered grow big (veg) and upped both tiger bloom and beastie blooms along with a splash of big bloom and cal/mag. Topping off buckets with about 1100+ ppm, which helps maintain ph in bucket at roughly 700-800 ppm. But it's getting harder to maintain those levels in flower, so that's why I believe a bucket change is in order. Here are photos spanning the entire 2-3 week period since last update.

First week of flower going well. I've been adjusting the lst ties to spread these girls out. Been getting water every other day to every day. They've been drinking a lot. When I went to adjust after taking pictures, I snapped off my last main branch I was working on. F me. Whelp it should be ok

Well, this week clones are done their root job I gave them 2 more days in their box. 4 different small buds are polinated now. I will give them 4 weeks to make seeds. This is my first try to do it in late period. We will see the result.

Once again GALACTIC buds! And once again cant add the comment lol

This smell ... sweet, very sweet, like sweets, lemon smell slightly noticeable at the very beginning, but when you touched her... on your fingers start to appear sticky and rich smell of juicy lemon. It is unbelievable that my babie can smell and look so great. I just can't wait... :D

There have been some serious training this week. LCC is flowering quickly and hasn't needed anymore training. She has had some leaves removed. Guava and Apricot are a bit behind LCC in flowering. They have been trained heavily this week. They now both have an insane amount of top bud sites. These babies will get very interesting in a few weeks... Their heights: Guava: 28 cm Apricot: 36 cm Lemon Cherry Cookies: 50 cm

It's week five of flowering, and the buds are developing very well. I'm very happy with how this run has gone so far. Let's hope for buds as big a lemons 🍋🍋🍋

We upgraded! Really thrilled with the new setup. Much better than those cardboard boxes. Pine tree kush was having issues due to the size of the makeshift setup so this tent was very much needed. No nutes as I just transplanted into new soil. I’ll give it a week before I decide if she’ll get one more round of fertilizer before we stop before harvesting.

20JUNE2025: Buds are forming well. Water them 1 liter every third day.

🍑 8×8 Adventure – Week 13 Passion Fruitz by Zamnesia 🌿 The Slow Girl Is Still One Of The Most Beautiful 🌸👑 Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And here she is again... Our beautiful Passion Fruitz solo survivor. 🍑🌿👑 And honestly... this girl continues to make me smile. She's still one of the slowest girls in the room. 😂 There is no point trying to hide it. While some of the other girls are racing toward the final chapters, Passion Fruitz is still taking her time. But here's the funny thing... She's also still one of the most beautiful plants in the entire room. And that makes it very difficult to complain about her speed. 😂🍑 She's the right size. Not too small. Not too big. Easy to manage. Beautifully proportioned. Deep green. Covered in those beautiful fresh white hairs. And continuing to grow. That's the important part. She's not stuck. She's not struggling. She's not sitting there doing nothing. She's growing. She's developing. She's simply doing it at Passion Fruitz speed. And honestly? I'm completely okay with that. So... let's give this beautiful girl the spotlight she deserves. 🍑🌿🌸✨ ──────────────────────── 🌱 WEEK 13 – STILL SLOW, STILL STUNNING Passion Fruitz remains one of the slower girls in the 8×8. But when I look at her... I don't see "slow." I see a beautiful plant continuing to develop. She's maintaining that gorgeous deep green colour. She's producing fresh white pistils. She's continuing to build her flowering structures. She's growing. She's becoming more defined. And she's doing it without becoming difficult to manage. That's actually something I really appreciate about her. She's not a giant. She's not trying to take over the tent. She's not demanding half the room. She's simply sitting there... looking beautiful. 😂🍑🌿 The perfect middle ground. Not small. Not huge. Just... right. ──────────────────────── 🍑 THE SOLO SURVIVOR CONTINUES This girl has become such an interesting part of the 8×8 Adventure. She's our solo survivor. She's the girl who refused to follow the timetable. She's the girl who watched everybody else start moving faster and basically said: "Relax. I'll get there." 😂🍑 And week after week... she proves the point. She's still among the slowest. But she's also still among the most beautiful. And that combination makes her fascinating. Because it reminds us that speed isn't everything. A plant doesn't have to be the fastest to be successful. She doesn't have to be the biggest. She doesn't have to have the most developed flowers at this exact moment. She's simply progressing. And she's progressing beautifully. ──────────────────────── 🌸 THOSE WHITE HAIRS ARE EVERYWHERE One of the first things that catches my eye every time I look at her is those beautiful white pistils. They're still fresh. Still prominent. Still reaching out from those developing floral sites. And they give her flowers such a beautiful appearance. She's still very much in that stage where the plant is telling us: "I'm still building." And that's perfectly fine. Yes... I'd love to see a little more bud development by now. 😂 I'm not going to lie. I look at her and think: "Come on, girl... give me a little more!" 😂🍑 But then I look again... and realize: She's still growing. She's still producing. She's still developing. So perhaps that's exactly what she's supposed to be doing. ──────────────────────── 🌿 MAYBE SHE'S JUST NOT DONE GROWING YET This is the part that actually makes me excited. Because when I say she's a little behind in flower development, I don't mean she's standing still. Quite the opposite. She's continuing to grow. And that changes the way I look at the situation. Maybe she's simply allocating more of her energy toward continued development right now. Maybe her flowers will accelerate later. Maybe she'll continue at this pace. Maybe she'll surprise us. We don't know. And I'm not going to pretend that I know exactly how her story ends. That's the fun part. We're watching it happen. And Passion Fruitz has already proven that she doesn't care much about our expectations. 😂🍑 So let's see what she decides to do. ──────────────────────── 💚 DEEP GREEN AND LOOKING BEAUTIFUL Another thing that really stands out this week is the colour. That deep green. Beautiful. Rich. Healthy-looking. And it gives the entire plant such a strong visual presence. She's not a massive plant. She's not covered in gigantic flowers yet. But when you look at her... she has presence. The structure is clean. The foliage is beautiful. The flowers are developing. The white hairs stand out against that deep green. And the whole plant has this very balanced appearance. Honestly... she's just a damn pretty plant. 😂🍑🌿 Sometimes that's enough. ──────────────────────── 🌱 THE PERFECT SIZE And I have to give her credit for something else... She's easy to manage. This is something that can get overlooked when we talk about big plants and huge canopies. Bigger isn't automatically better. Sometimes having a plant that's simply the right size is fantastic. She's not too tall. She's not too wide. She's not trying to invade the neighbours. She's not creating a management nightmare. She's simply occupying her space. And that makes her very easy to appreciate. She's a beautiful, manageable plant with a very pleasant structure. And in a room with some absolute monsters... that's actually refreshing. 😂🌿 ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FLOWERS ARE STILL COMING Would I like to see bigger flowers already? Absolutely. 😂 But I'm not worried. Because the flowering sites are there. The pistils are there. The structure is developing. And the plant is still growing. So instead of looking at her and saying: "Why isn't she further ahead?" I'm looking at her and thinking: "Okay... what is she going to do next?" That's a much more interesting question. Because if there's one thing Passion Fruitz has taught us... it's patience. 😂🍑 She's making us wait. And I'm happy to wait if the result is another beautiful chapter in this story. ──────────────────────── 📸 THE PHOTOGRAPHS ARE SHOWING THE DETAILS And this week's photographs really help show her character. The full-plant images show that beautiful, balanced structure. The wider shots show how comfortably she sits within the room. And then the close-ups... that's where she really shines. The white pistils. The developing flowers. The deep green leaves. The little details throughout the canopy. And even around the lower part of the plant, you can see the natural progression of older material closer to the substrate. That's part of the story too. A plant isn't only the top of the canopy. There's a whole structure underneath. And when you photograph the entire plant... you start seeing the complete picture. ──────────────────────── 🌱 DOWN NEAR THE SOIL – THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PLANT I particularly like having those lower photographs because they remind us that the plant has an entire world happening below the obvious flowers. Closer to the substrate, you can see the older parts of the plant and the lower structure developing naturally. There's something strangely beautiful about that. 😂🌿 We spend so much time photographing flowers that it's easy to forget the foundation holding everything above them. The stem. The lower branches. The root-zone area. The transition between the plant and the substrate. It's all part of the same organism. And Passion Fruitz has built herself a beautiful foundation. ──────────────────────── 🌱 BEAUTIFUL ROOT-ZONE EXPRESSION And yes... I'm also really liking what we're seeing around the root-zone area. You can get glimpses of that lower structure and the plant's connection with the substrate. It's another reminder that what we're looking at above the soil is only half the story. The visible plant is the result. The root system is part of the engine. And while we can't see the entire root system through the pot, those visible details around the lower stem give us another little window into what's happening down there. It's one of those details that doesn't always make it into the glamorous flower photographs... but I love documenting it anyway. Because this is a diary. Not just a beauty contest. 😂🍑📸 Although... she's definitely winning points in the beauty department. ──────────────────────── 💡 SAME ROOM – SAME PHOTONS And once again, Passion Fruitz is receiving the same general environment as everybody else in the 8×8. The two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures remain part of the lighting setup. We're controlling the output rather than simply running everything at maximum. Approximately: 🔌 59% power from the plug And approximately: ☀️ 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. The photons don't know she's the slow girl. 😂☀️ They arrive. She receives them. And she interprets them in her own way. That's the whole point of this experiment. Same room. Same artificial sun. Different genetics. Different response. Different timeline. And Passion Fruitz continues to answer: "Slowly." 😂🍑 ──────────────────────── ☀️ MORE LIGHT – DIFFERENT GENETIC RESPONSE This is one of the things I find fascinating about the 8×8. We have increased the lighting capability. We have additional fixtures. We have more available photons. We have control over the output. And yet... Passion Fruitz is still Passion Fruitz. 😂 She's not suddenly transforming into the fastest plant in the room. She's still following her own rhythm. And that's exactly what makes this experiment so interesting. The environment gives the plant the opportunity. The genetics decide how that opportunity is expressed. And this girl is expressing herself beautifully... just slowly. ──────────────────────── ⚗️ NUTRITION – THE ROOM IS STILL TRANSITIONING As we're moving deeper into the flowering cycle, we're continuing with the gradual nutritional transition we've already started. Terra Bloom remains around: 🌱 2.0 ml/L with the room around: ⚡ ~2.05 mS/cm EC The philosophy hasn't changed. We're not suddenly turning everything off because the calendar says we're getting closer. We're watching the plants. We're allowing them to progress. And Passion Fruitz is still very much in development. She's still green. She's still growing. She's still producing fresh pistils. She's still building. So we're continuing to observe her rather than forcing her into somebody else's timeline. ──────────────────────── 🌿 THE PLANT GETS THE FINAL VOTE This is becoming more important every week. We can have schedules. We can have expectations. We can have week numbers. We can have feeding charts. But the plant gets the final vote. Passion Fruitz is telling us: "I'm still growing." So... we listen. 😂🍑 She's telling us: "I'm still producing fresh white hairs." We listen. She's telling us: "I'm not ready to rush." We listen. And she's telling us: "I'm beautiful." Okay... that one was obvious. 😂🌿❤️ ──────────────────────── 🔬 SAME ROOM – DIFFERENT CLOCK The 8×8 experiment continues to prove the same thing. Twelve plants. One room. Same general environment. Same lighting philosophy. Same irrigation. Same nutritional foundation. And completely different expressions. Some are already looking much further into maturity. Some are changing colour. Some are getting louder. Some are bulking faster. Some are moving slower. And Passion Fruitz? She's still taking the scenic route. 😂🍑🛣️ But she's doing it beautifully. That's her story. And I'm not interested in changing it. ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE SLOWEST GIRLS CAN STILL STEAL THE SHOW There's something funny about this plant. She's not the fastest. She's not the biggest. She's not producing the most dramatic flowers in the room. And yet... every time I photograph her... I stop. Because she's beautiful. 😂🍑 The colour. The structure. The white pistils. The balance. The proportions. The way she sits in her space. She's simply pleasing to look at. And sometimes that's what makes a plant memorable. Not necessarily the biggest numbers. Not necessarily the biggest flowers. Just... character. And Passion Fruitz has plenty of it. ──────────────────────── 💚 DEEP GREEN, BALANCED AND EASY TO LOVE I keep coming back to that deep green. It's one of the things that immediately catches the eye. The foliage creates this beautiful contrast with those fresh white pistils. And because she's not oversized, the whole plant feels balanced. Nothing looks like it's fighting for space. Nothing looks chaotic. She's simply growing. Beautifully. Comfortably. At her own pace. And honestly... that's a lovely place for a plant to be. ──────────────────────── 🔮 LOOKING AHEAD – LET'S SEE WHAT SHE DOES Now comes the interesting part. Because I really want to see what happens next. She's still behind many of the girls in terms of visible flower development. But she's continuing to grow. She's continuing to produce pistils. She's maintaining that beautiful colour. And she's looking better every week. So maybe... the next chapter is where she starts catching up. Or maybe she simply continues doing what she's always done. Slowly. Steadily. Beautifully. Either way... I'm here for it. 😂🍑🌿 We're going to keep watching. Keep photographing. Keep documenting. And most importantly... let her be herself. ──────────────────────── 💭 FINAL THOUGHTS – STILL SLOW, STILL BEAUTIFUL Week 13. And our Passion Fruitz solo survivor is still doing what she does best. Taking her time. 😂🍑 She's still among the slowest plants in the room. But she's also still among the most beautiful. And honestly? I'm perfectly happy with that. She's the right size. Easy to manage. Not too small. Not too big. Beautifully balanced. Deep green. Covered in gorgeous white pistils. Still growing. Still developing. Still showing us new details every week. Yes... I'd love to see a little more flower development already. But I'm not going to complain. Because the fact that she's still growing tells us something important: She's not done. She's still working. She's still building. She's still writing her story. And perhaps that's exactly why she's moving so slowly. Maybe Passion Fruitz simply wants to make sure we don't miss anything. 😂🍑📸 And when I look at her photographs... I don't see a plant that's falling behind. I see a plant that's taking her time. There's a difference. The 8×8 isn't a race. It's an experiment. And this beautiful girl is giving us another completely different answer. Same room. Same photons. Same environment. Different genetics. Different clock. Different story. And Passion Fruitz's story is becoming one of my favourites. 🍑🌿🌸👑 So let's give this beautiful solo survivor the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's appreciate those deep greens. Those beautiful white hairs. That balanced structure. That manageable size. Those developing flowers. That beautiful root-zone expression. And let's simply wait. Because something tells me this girl still has a few surprises for us. 😂🍑 Keep growing, beautiful girl. Keep doing your thing. Keep taking your time. And when you're ready... show us what you've been building. We're watching. We're photographing. We're learning. And we're enjoying every damn minute of it. 🍑🌿🌸💎☀️🔥 ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU As always, a huge thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries. 💚🌱 Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document these individual journeys and share the process week after week. Thank you to Zamnesia for giving us the Passion Fruitz genetics and for allowing us to follow this beautiful solo survivor through the entire adventure. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden throughout the journey with the growing media and nutrition. A massive thank you to Future of Grow for providing the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to test this expanded lighting setup inside the 8×8. More capability. More control. More photons. And twelve different plants showing us twelve completely different responses. Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light deeper into the canopy and allowing us to explore this garden as the three-dimensional environment that it really is. And thank you to TrolMaster for helping monitor and manage the room behind the scenes. And of course... thank you to everyone following these girls every week. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by. You're all part of this adventure. 💚🌱 Twelve plants. One room. One shared environment. And twelve completely different stories. Passion Fruitz is writing hers slowly. Very slowly. 😂🍑 But she's writing it beautifully. She's deep green. She's balanced. She's easy to manage. She's covered in beautiful white hairs. She's continuing to grow. And she's proving once again that being slow doesn't mean being less impressive. Sometimes... the slow girl is the one you end up remembering. 🍑👑🌿🌸 So let's keep watching. Let's keep documenting. Let's keep those photons flying. And let's give this beautiful girl the time she deserves. Until next week... Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 Happy growing, take care everyone... and keep an eye on our slowest little beauty. Because I have a feeling... she's not finished surprising us yet. 🍑🌿🌸💎☀️🔥 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. Where some girls race... some girls fly... and Passion Fruitz? She's still taking the scenic route. 😂🍑👑🌿

Week 5-6 starting

So this grow came to a finshed but I had a. Few issues that’s held me up from finishing up the diary, but in due time I will reupload it all in order soon. But over all I will also update with a final weigh in of each strain produced so stay tuned 🤙🏻🔥

One of them is coming out weird. Otherwise ok.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la sexta semana de floración de estas Green Gelato feminizadas de RoyalQueenSeeds. Vamos al lío ,se trasplantaron en macetas de 7 litros definitivamente. El ph se controla en 6.0 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 24/20 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. El ciclo de floración puse 12h de luz, el foco está al 80% de potencia. De momento van creciendo a buen ritmo y tienen un buen color. La flor también va formándose y engordando, también empieza a producir tricomas, estaban muy bien enraizadas al realizarle el trasplante se notaba la abundancia radicular. Agradecer Agrobeta por el envío del kit gold series en cuestión, unos maestros 🙏 - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida Descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Doing really good. I've introduced some flower stacker, worm tea concentrate, hydro guard root inoculant and some calmag with iron. I also started place a layer of ice on top of the medium to trigger trichome and to get them beautiful colors. I've been doing the ice thing in my last couple of harvest and I swear that it increased the trichome coverage and I get some nice colors to pop. I usually go with organic soil amendment for nutrients. However I used a new to me soil called Biochar. It's like a bunch of small pieces of tree bark. It has simular characteristics like I have to water every day because this product dose not retain moisture at all. I did add a good layer about 1 gallon of Purple Cow Indicanja mixed 50/50 with Happy Frog soil. I loosened the first couple of inches in the container with my fingers and worked it into the soil and watered it in slowly. The addition of the new top layer of soil and nutrients have paid off well. I'm still about 3 weeks out from harvest and I can't wait to see how fat these flowers get. They're already the size of golf balls and I swear I can literally see them growing before my eyes, at least a 1/8 of a inch of girth a day. I have two more feedings to go before it's time to start the flushing process and with the addition of the ice I'm anticipating some lovely colors. Cheers!!!

👇 This week: --- Watering 1l-1.5l every day. PPFD at canopy height approximately 900 (increase slowly), VPD ~1.3 Big defoliation, lollipopped some plants at day 21, will wait for the last 2 till day 28 Ladys got 500ml compost tea each (biotabs recipe from kees) from now on every week - Recipe: 15gr compost PK/L, 5ml orgatrex/L, 1gr bactrex/L - brew for 24-36h) --- Happy growing and thanks for checking out my report! I really appreciate you! 😁💪🙏
