Week 8 day 56 and they're showing no sign of slowing down. These are some of the most impressive seeds I've ever grown. Been giving bi weekly teas of terp teas. This week was bloom and bloom booster. Super easy. Mix 1tsp or 5ml per gallon of water or medium https://youtube.com/@aestheticgenetix?si=pSk5e-kvp-nVYccc

Die 3 Mädels duften langsam, die Harzdrüsen Produktion ist im vollen gange. Ich muss nun peinlich genau auf die Temperatur achten, da die Lampe schon nicht mehr höher geht und es sonst zu Verbrennungen kommt. Noch sehen die Spitzen gut aus, aber ich habe schon häufiger so eine Art bleiche gegen Ende der Blüte erlebt. Bislang ist dies wohl mein aufwändigster Grow, die Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit konstant zu halten ist Momentan durch wechselhaft Wetter hier äußerst schwierig. Zum ich im selben Raum auf noch die Cookie Gelato anbauen, diese ist jedoch in der Wachstumsphase und braucht es natürlich etwas feuchter und Wärme. Ja war ein blöde Idee 2 Grows mit so verschiedenen Bedingungen gleichzeitig anzubauen 😏 Aber ulkig Weise ist es mir bisher immer, naja fast immer , durch die verücktesten Konstruktionen die ideale Anbaubedinungen für den jeweiligen Grow zu schaffen, im selben Raum, und zwar mit Alu Lüftungschläuchen 😎

Super stoked for last week, watching her flower is pretty incredible, so from pretty much week 9 of veg up till now I've been feeding her half strength base nutrients with fluctuating strengths of sensizym and Cal-Mag always mixed with 8L of basic filtered water. Update January 5 2020. Back from my fishing trip! Happy to say that everything with the durban is going swimmingly, I fed her today 8L with half strength base nutrients and half strength of sensizym. I will probably do one more feeding with sensizym and call it good.. in two-three weeks I will start adding my Overdrive nutrients to my base. January 11 update: Not much going. Just playing the waiting game now. January 13 update: its gotten really cold here, like -37 with wind so I put a ceramic heat emitter back in, now back up to 250w heat running 24/7. Growing in an unheated shop is definitely a challenge! But with the other one in things are picking up and shits drying out finally. Should have put the other heater back in a week ago. My bad. January 15 update: -37!! Holy fu*ck, fed her 3L of mixed nutrients at half strength. With just a splash of overdrive. January 17 update: outside temps finally warming up to -25°c yay!! Inside grow box temps up to 28°c she likes it warm, Fed her the remaining food I had mixed up, she got about 5L. Seeing fattening of the bud sites👀👌 January 19 update: No idea when this happened but it did.. got a crack right at first top. Now I know to leave more of stem above where it splits off into two. Quick tape fix till I figure it out, fed her 5L of mixed food with just under full strength OverDrive and some organic growth plus.. it has a high pk so I'm using it once. More updates to follow. Update pictures daily!! Happy growing everyone!🌱👍 Stay warm my Canadian friends.

Day 29 - Topped both ladies at the fifth node and removed any growth below. Growth exploded since transplant and first dose of nutrients. Day 30 - Watered both ladies with around 100ml of water. They recovered from the topping and look as healthy as can be. Very happy with progress. Day 32 - Misted both ladies. Will water tomorrow with another dose of light nutrients. Day 33 - Watered both ladies with around 250ml each. Increased dosage slightly from last feed to see how they take it. Day 35 - Both ladies taking the feeding like champs. Vigorous growth showing in both, planning to top them again next week and remove any growth below the topped nodes. Misted to keep them nice and hydrated.

Who knew managing 3 phenos would be this hard! Lol CSK 1 (Far left) - This plant was doing fine until I checked the PPM and it was at 2300 😳 - I’m going to skip nutes for 1 week to see if it drops. CSK 2 (Middle) - This plant has the slowest uptake of all three plants! However, I did test its PPM at 1900. I will skip nutes for 1 week and see if it drops. CSK 3 (Far Right) - This plant is the second fastest uptake and was tested at 980 PPM so this is a fairly hungry plant. I noticed the leaves on this plant appears yellow. I suspect this might be Nitrogen + Potassium deficiency. I will only water this plant with those specific nutrients this week at a low dose. Additional, I added another 3k LED for supplement lighting. Tested the PPD and lowered the light intensity. To minimize the loss in heat, I increased the height of the LED lights.

Hey fellow growers another week in the books! Not a lot going on this week except some leaf plucking! Total plant life is 77 days old( 10 days over Northern lights supposed to be harvest time). I'm in my harvest window now for pineapple auto. Neither plant is close to ready! Both could prob use another 2-3 weeks! I will start my 2 week flush today on these ladies. As I need this tent for drying. I would try to stretch these ladies a little longer but as fast as they are yellowing I'm not sure if I can even make it through the two week flush! These girls have started defoliating themselves and I'm running out of fan leaves. Thanks to my rookie mistake of defoliating all my fan leaves off both plants some weeks back! All the issues these plants have are my mistakes. Like I just found out that changing from blurple lights to white lights in flower could have stressed these ladies🤯💩🤬! Now that I think back and look back my girls were doing well up till light change! Live and learn is what this has become for me. Not a pro and prob won't ever be until I can figure out this nutrient feeding. I can look on all these different sites and everyone will tell you a different amount to feed and still have yet to find one single feeding suggestion chart for an auto flower using my nutrients. Well as u know from last week I did a 10 gal flush to correct dry pockets in my soil. It helped! Both plants will now hold a gal of Solution instead of a 1/4-1/2 gal. It didn't improve the yellowing of either plant. I was told to stop giving nitrogen as the plants themselves are passing maturity and are nearing the end of their lifespan. I thought when u stressed an autoflower it just set u back a week so u had to grow a week longer. What I was told is an autoflower is genetically designed to go a certain length of time and once it passes that time that's it! So losing a week to stress is a week lost of 🌸. Can anyone reassure me that this is the case because it is important to me to know that I'm putting out accurate info to others. So enough rambling... 10/27/21 3ml calmag 2ml micro 4ml bloom 1/2ml ph down Ph 6.38 631ppm Solution temp 70.4°F 10/31/21 Will begin flushing today! So while the site was down for 2 almost 3 days🤬 I got bored and started an Instagram page for my grows! Now keep in mind I'm no instagrammer! I mainly did it so when I need to show someone pics of my plants it's faster on there than here! I also became an affiliate for Viparspectra!! So excited to be a member of their team as I love my Viparspectra vs1000 lights! But if your in the market for grow items check them out for your grow needs! Here you can use these to help save u 💰! Who doesn't like to save💰?! 🤑 https://partners.viparspectra.com/?ref=Wackytabacky420 🤑 Or coupon code: Wackytabacky420 Well guys I'm ready to start flushing these ladies! Always work to be done in the garden of Wackytabacky420! I would like to give a shout out this week to 🌟legendaryseedthumb🌟 for helping and answering some of my questions while site was down this week. Thanks growers and viewer's for stopping by! Till next week Best of luck and Happy Growing!😎🌱💚💪💪 Don't forget to smash that 👎button!

Fun to grow and took to lst and supercropping very well. I am keeping a mother of the stinkiest pheno I got. I made some other seeds that I will be growing out after Jinxproof's pheno hunt. I will be doing a few grows coming up here and its going to be gnarly! Stay tuned in for modern genetics that have been tested and stabilized. These were bag seed from regular seed of LA confidential given to a friend that won them in a giveaway from DNA Genetics.

16.2.25: I decided to check out the lower canopies of all plants to see if I need to get rid of any foliage. I did get rid of a few small branches and leaves. However, whilst I was doing this, I saw more garden pegs from my LST remaining. There were about 6 or more in Pink Mist alone. Additionally, on Watermelon, there were some left in, too. I'm so annoyed to see that because the plants are really stretching, and I could've potentially disrupted this by leaving the pegs in for all this time without realising it. 🤞 that I haven't compromised things too much. We'll see. I watered today with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 containing the following nutrients; ♡ .8g Green Leaf Nutrients PK booster ♡ .5g Ecothrive Biosys I ordered quite a few things for the garden. I got Greenleaf Nutrients Sea K(elp) and Mega Crop Parts A+B. To go with their PK Booster I got last month. I'm excited to try it all together. Next run, maybe just using these. We'll see how it goes. 18.2.25: The plants are going crazy for water! Everything is getting used right up so fast! Today, I decided to add some more Black Strap Molasses to add some carbs and other micronutrients. I'll add the jar with the label in the photos section above. I watered a very small amount to each plant. What I put in: ♡ Black strap molasses 150g ♡ 2g Sea K(elp) Greenleaf nutrients. I dissolved everything in 4ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4. 19.2.25: I received the majority of the garden purchases that I made. I'm still waiting for the Ecothrive Life Cycle. I wanted to top dress, but it's been delayed unfortunately. I am using my Greenleaf nutrients products which I bought on Amazon. I got the Mega Crop 2 part system Part A and Part B. I have the Sea K(elp), and the bud explosion PK booster. I really wanted to get some of their sweet candy asking read many positive reviews. Unfortunately, for me, this is unavailable to buy currently. So that's a little disappointing. I needed to do a good watering so when my nutes were delivered today, I got excited 🤗 I watered 2ltrs of dechlorinated water per plant, PH'd to 6.4, containing the following nutrients: ♡ 1g Mega Crop Part A ♡ 1g Mega Crop Part B ♡ .5g Sea K(elp). The plants drank this up within a few hours. I'm going to try and hold off on watering in hopes that my Ecothrive Life Cycle will arrive so I can top dress and water it in then. 20.2.25: My Ecothrive Life Cycle arrived yesterday, and the plants are ready for their top dress and a good watering in. I have some Biobizz Light Mix, Canna Coco,and perlite. I'm going to use this as a base to mix my amendments in. I'm going to fill my 5 gallon bucket with about 4.5 gallons of my top dress mix. I will distribute this across 6, 4-5 gallon pots. Then I will water in well with Greenleaf nutrients Mega Crop Parts A+B and Sea K(elp). I've made a crude attempt to video mixing my top dress. Don't listen to the audio. lol, my YouTube didn't stop playing whilst I recorded this 😂 So anyway, I added the following amendments to the above base mix of 4.5 gallons; ♡ 3 TBSP Ecothrive Life Cycle ♡ 3 TBSP Vitalink Bat Guano ♡ 3 TBSP Ecothrive Charge ♡ 1 TBSP RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules ♡ 6 TBSP Ground Cinnamon.

Miei cari amici, L'estate incalza e finalmente il tempoi permette di trasformare ad hoc. Secondo i gusti il giardino, la terrazza e i due balconi. Un lavoro duro e intenso con i 25/30 gradi che il NW in questa settima sta proponendo e che spero vivamente durino tanto. Travaso storico e professionale. Vediamo ciò che l'armadio dice. Questo travaso probabilmente ritardera di due o tre settimane il raccolto, ma andava fatto e ne varrà sicuramente la pena. 28/06 My dearest friends, comrades and farm partners. Doc. Cannas is extremely happy to introduce you to the 5 wonders of Expert Seeds. Still my most heartfelt congratulations for their genetics, between photos and videos you have seen what a wonder these little girls are growing. Today they have been introduced to LST, an art halfway between Astana yoga and BSDM. Being their first time there was a need for love and passion. So it was. At the next update farmers

? Blueberry Muffin – Pheno A Week 8 | Okay… Now She's on Fire! 🔥 Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 If you're discovering this diary for the first time, welcome! This project is an experiment in patience, genetics and observation. Twelve different cultivars are growing together under the same environmental conditions, lighting, irrigation system and general feeding strategy. The biggest variable? The plants themselves. And Blueberry Muffin Pheno A continues to prove exactly why genetics matter so much. She has never been the fastest plant in the room, but this week something has definitely changed. This girl is on fire. 🔥? 🌱 A Quick Recap — How Did We Get Here? Blueberry Muffin is being grown under a 12/12-from-seed schedule. For anyone new to the concept, this means the plant receives a flowering light schedule from the beginning rather than spending several weeks under a traditional vegetative photoperiod. The idea isn't to force the plant into becoming something it isn't. Instead, we're allowing each genetic to show us what it can do when given the same basic conditions as every other plant in the room. During the early stages, I followed what I like to call a "no-touch" philosophy. Apart from necessary care, I avoided constantly manipulating the plants. There was no aggressive training programme and no obsession with making every plant look identical. There was some gentle leaf bending and positioning when necessary, but for the most part: I let them grow. That has given us something I find incredibly valuable now that we're deeper into flowering. We can actually see how naturally each plant wants to grow. And Blueberry Muffin has developed into a tall, open and beautifully structured plant, with plenty of space between her flowering sites and excellent visibility throughout the canopy. 🌸 Flowering Development And now we're getting into the fun part. The flowers are becoming much more obvious this week, with fresh pistils developing throughout the plant and the individual flowering sites beginning to take shape. She's still not the densest-looking plant in the room, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. At this stage, I'm much more interested in how the plant develops over time than in trying to judge the final result too early. The structure is allowing light and air to move through the plant, and the flowering sites are clearly developing. We're entering the stage where the focus gradually moves away from producing more vertical growth and toward flower development, stacking and eventually bulking. She's getting there. And judging by this week's photographs… she knows exactly what she's doing. 😄? ✂️ Defoliation — But Without a Calendar This is also the point where we've started introducing some selective defoliation around the room. And I want to explain this because it is very easy for newer growers to look at a diary and think: "Week X means I have to defoliate on this exact day." No. That's not how I approach it. There are twelve plants in this room, and they're not all developing at the same speed. Some plants are ready for a little leaf removal now. Others aren't. Some may receive attention next week. And some may barely need anything at all. I'm also doing this entire project myself, so there is absolutely no reason for me to create artificial pressure by saying: "Today is defoliation day for everybody." Instead, I look at the plants and make decisions based on what they're showing me. The goal isn't to remove as many leaves as possible. The goal is to remove what I don't need, while keeping enough healthy foliage to support the plant. For Blueberry Muffin, we're now selectively removing a few leaves here and there where they are blocking important flowering sites, creating unnecessary overlap, or simply no longer contributing much to the canopy. It's a much more surgical approach than stripping the plant bare. And honestly, I prefer it that way. Grow with the plant, not against it. 🌱 🌿 The Slightly Light Green Colour Now let's talk about something I mentioned last week. Blueberry Muffin is still showing a somewhat lighter green colour compared with some of her neighbours. It's particularly noticeable on some of the older leaves. But importantly: I'm not seeing anything that makes me panic. The plant is flowering, producing new growth and developing healthy-looking flowers. However, she is clearly a little more demanding nutritionally than some of the other plants in this room. And this is where growing twelve different genetics together becomes interesting. The entire room was asking for more nutrition, so we increased the overall feeding strength. But Blueberry Muffin? She's basically saying: "Thank you… but I might need a little more." 😂 So now we're going to give her some time to respond. Rather than immediately making another adjustment, I'll watch the new growth and overall colour over the coming days. If the plant starts returning toward a deeper, healthier green without developing signs of excess nutrition, we'll know we're moving in the right direction. This is one of those situations where observation is more valuable than chasing a number. ⚗️ Feeding Strategy The current feeding has been increased slightly as flowering progresses and as the room's overall demand has increased. At the moment we're running approximately: Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Plagron Pure Zym – 1 ml/L pH adjustment as required Current solution: EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm pH: 6.0 The important part here is that this isn't simply about pushing the EC higher because the plants are flowering. The plants are communicating their demand through growth, colour, water consumption and overall development. We've responded with a moderate increase and now we're watching. If Blueberry Muffin continues improving, fantastic. If she tells us that we've gone too far, we'll adapt again. There is no prize for following a feeding chart blindly. The chart is a starting point. The plant gets the final vote. 💡 Lighting We're currently maintaining a 12/12 light schedule, with the plants receiving a strong flowering intensity. The canopy is getting approximately 800 PPFD. For anyone new to PPFD, this is basically a measurement of how much photosynthetically useful light is reaching the plant canopy. It doesn't tell us everything about light quality or plant response, but it gives us a useful way of understanding light intensity. At around 800 PPFD, we're providing a substantial amount of light without trying to push the plants unnecessarily hard. At this stage, I'm happy with where we are. If the plants continue asking for more light and the environment allows it, there is always room to make adjustments. But once again: more isn't automatically better. We're looking for the balance between light, temperature, CO₂, nutrition and plant health. 🌡️ Current Environment The room continues to be remarkably stable: 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25.6°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: ~693 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 💦 Watering: approximately 1.3 L/plant/24h She's growing in a 15-litre AutoPot system, with the root zone continuing to receive consistent access to nutrient solution. That consistency is particularly useful during flowering because we're not constantly creating large swings in moisture availability. The goal is simple: Keep the root zone happy and let the plant concentrate on the flowers. 🔬 Structure & Personality One of the things I really enjoy about Blueberry Muffin Pheno A is that she's becoming increasingly easy to read. She's not trying to be the biggest or bushiest plant in the room. Instead, she's developed a tall, open architecture with a strong central structure and numerous flowering branches distributed along the plant. The photographs this week really show that personality. And this is exactly why I wanted to run twelve different genetics together. If I had only grown Blueberry Muffin, I might simply describe her as "a tall plant." But when you see her standing beside eleven other cultivars receiving the same treatment, you start to understand that this is her genetic expression. That's the fascinating part of this project. 🔮 Looking Ahead For next week, I'm not planning to chase anything. I'll continue monitoring the colour closely, particularly the newer foliage, while watching how the flowers develop and begin to bulk. If she responds positively to the increased nutrition, we'll keep things stable. If she tells us something different, we'll listen. I'll also continue selective defoliation where necessary, but without forcing every plant onto the same timetable. There is no need to create stress simply because the calendar says it's time. We're now entering a stage where patience becomes increasingly important. The framework has been built. The flowers are here. Now we let them do their job. 🌸 And Blueberry Muffin? She's finally starting to show us why she took her time. The quiet ones can surprise you. ?🔥 💚 Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Whether you've been here since germination or you've just discovered this diary, I genuinely appreciate every visit, comment, question and conversation. This project has become much more than twelve plants in a tent. It's an opportunity to observe how different genetics behave when we remove as many variables as possible and simply give them the same environment. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a place to document the journey and learn together. To Zamnesia, thank you for the fantastic Blueberry Muffin genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore what this cultivar can do under a 12/12-from-seed approach. To Plagron, thank you for supporting the plants with your growing media and nutrients throughout this adventure. And to Future of Grow LED, thank you for providing the light that allows us to put all twelve personalities under the same sun and see how differently they respond. And finally, thank you. Because growing becomes even more rewarding when we can share the successes, the mistakes, the questions and the lessons with one another. Remember, this is simply my way of doing things and what is working for me in this particular environment. There is no obligation to copy anything you see here. Take what is useful, learn from it, adapt it to your own environment and, most importantly, learn to listen to your plants. Growers Love, everyone. 💚🌱 See you next week with Blueberry Muffin Pheno A… …and I have a feeling this little lady may have a few more surprises waiting for us. ?🔥

So this grow wasnt to bad considering it was my first indoor auto grow. For the most part I am satisfied with. However I will stick with the high end genetics from here on out as I want to grow the dankest of the dank and this is what I enjoy doing so why not do it the best way possible with the best names in the game. Stay tuned to see what 🔥 I’m growing next!!! Thanks for tuning in and as always stay Smokey my Friends!! 💨💨💨

looking well but i think she could have a little more resin production at this stage, currently going in to week 6. any tips would be helpful, im already pumping co2 in there above the plant so it falls down, under a 200w attis lumatek led. (will upgrade next grow) ... the old co2 pack behind the plant is empty and old just not removed 🤣 thanks :)
