Cosmic Noodles 🙂 | Week 13 Still fading, still feeding, still building Week 13 from seed. Week 9 of flower. And somehow, still not finished. At this point, there is not much left to do — and that is exactly the point. This is the part of the run where patience becomes the whole job. The structure is set. The flowers are built. The room is stable. The plant has already told us what she is. Now we wait, we watch, and we let her finish. And she is still finishing. ⸻ How we got here This has been another full 12/12 from seed run from day one. No veg reset, no extended shaping, no wasted time — just direct expression from seed to flower under the same cycle all the way through. Week by week, Cosmic Noodles built exactly the kind of structure these runs are so good at showing: clean vertical movement, strong branching, long stacked tops, and a very honest expression from start to finish. No tricks. No extra recovery windows. No artificial delays. Just genetics, environment, consistency, and time. Now in week 13 from seed and week 9 of flower, she is exactly where late flower should be: fading, swelling, ripening, and slowly closing the loop. ⸻ Nothing changed — and that is a good thing This week looks almost identical on paper. Same room. Same temperatures. Same humidity. Same hand watering. Same low input. Same stable environment. And at this stage, that is exactly what you want. No sudden changes. No chasing numbers. No late flower panic. No unnecessary corrections. The plant is still drinking. Still feeding from herself. Still moving. Still adding weight. That matters more than any adjustment would. Late flower is not the time to start experimenting. It is the time to stay out of the way and pay attention. ⸻ Fading exactly how she should The leaves are fading more now, and that is expected. Color is leaving the fans. The plant is consuming what she stored. The green is slowly pulling back. And the whole plant is starting to look like it understands the assignment. This is not decline. This is finish. She is doing exactly what a healthy late flower plant should do — slowly cannibalizing reserves, pushing energy into the flowers, and putting everything that is left into the final swell. And despite that fade, she is still building. That is the important part. She is not fading because she stopped. She is fading because she is finishing. Big difference. ⸻ Still swelling, still stacking weight Even now, she is still putting on mass. Not explosive growth. Not dramatic change. Just steady late pressure. The flowers are denser. The stacks are tighter. The tops are heavier. The whole plant feels more compact every few days. And that main cola is ridiculous. At this point it is less “main top” and more “forearm.” Long, thick, dense, and still tightening. The rest of the plant follows the same pattern — not oversized in height, but packed, compact, and much heavier than she looks at first glance. This is the kind of late flower weight that sneaks up quietly and then suddenly feels very real when you touch the branches. ⸻ Trichomes are moving, but not there yet This week is still a waiting game. Trichomes are changing, but not finished. Still mostly clear. Some starting to turn cloudy. Almost no amber worth talking about yet. A few here and there, but nothing meaningful. The hairs are telling a similar story. Still plenty of white, though they are clearly beginning to shift. That usually says the same thing the resin is saying: Close. But not yet. She is moving in the right direction, just not on our schedule. And that is fine. ⸻ Quiet week, sharp eyes This week is mostly observation. No pushing. No chasing. No guessing. Just keeping everything clean, steady, and under control. Hand watering continues. Inputs stay simple. Only water and Pure Zym. Root zone stays active. Plant stays supported. Environment stays stable. And eyes stay sharp. This is the stage where the work is mostly watching: checking density checking airflow checking weak spots checking for rot checking for mold checking for signs of stress So far: nothing. No bud rot. No visible issues. No real concerns. No surprises. Exactly how we want it. ⸻ What to expect next week Honestly? More of the same — and that is good news. More fade. More density. More cloudy heads. Less clear resin. More ripening. More signs that the window is finally opening. Will next week be harvest? Maybe. Maybe not. That is still up to her. At this point we are close enough to start thinking about the finish, but still patient enough not to force it. And late flower always rewards patience more than impatience. So next week we watch again. And if she says she is ready, we listen. ⸻ Closing thoughts Week 13 from seed. Week 9 flower. Still standing. Still drinking. Still swelling. Still building. And still not done. Exactly the kind of problem worth having. Big love to everyone following along. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron for the support. To GrowDiaries for the platform. To the growers in the comments. To the long-time followers. To the OGs. To the new ones. To the quiet ones watching. To the supporters. To the skeptics. To the lovers and the haters alike.

Soweit so gut. Die Blüte neigt sich langsam aber sicher dem Ende bzw geht in die letzte Phase, ein paar Wochen brauchen die Ladies aber noch. Hinten rechts scheint von Anfang an schneller und dementsprechend auch eventuell eher fertig zu sein, mal schauen wie sich das entwickelt. Die Ladies werden etwas "rostig" aber ich denke das ist in dem Stadium kein Problem bzw einfach der Zahn der Zeit, der an ihnen nagt. Der Geruch wird stärker und die Spannung steigt 🙏🏻💚

420Fastbuds FBT2308/Week5 What up grow fam. Sorry for the late weekly update but was having some technical difficulties. This week has been eventful to say the least. My heater went out letting my Temps drop to high 40'f for a night or two and wow did the plants tell me they're angry. Definitely starting to bounce back but just goes to show the reselants of Fastbuds genetics. I lollipoped and did one more defoliation this week so hopefully flower stage will be smooth sailing. All in all Happy Growing

On the daily trichome check now! 😎 Flushing and planning to harvest next week 😉 💚💛❤️

Week 5 I’m extremely impressed these should turn out amazing as expected ! Only using Calmag and Tiger bloom

Plant suffering from mite attack! Isolated awaiting the arrival of the Boveril (Beauveria bassiana). 😔

Semana tranquila, lo de siempre en estas últimas semanas , ir atando apicales como buenamente se puede para que no toquen el techo del invernadero. el resto son fotos de lo que le fui añadiendo al invernadero para favorecer la ventilación y la renovación del aire. De esta forma me puedo permitir cerrar la puerta hasta abajo y que quede todo más protegido.

Flush week. This will go until the trichomes turn into amberlamps

She's a mess! Her buds are sooo heavy, they are falling over. She suffered from nute lockout and ph issues, but I see her leaves greening up again, so maybe she's getting better. I don't know what it means, but her stems are purple. She also has some foxtailing that I think the environment contributed to. It gets very hot in my make shift tent. These are her last weeks. No more nutes, just water from now on. I will be harvesting her on Sunday due to personal time constraints. I hope she's good! Thanks for stopping by and stay tuned.

Que pasa familia, empezamos la primera semana de floración de estas Gelato Olandese de Dutchfem. Parecía que no querían tirar al principio, pero es que no veáis de un momento a otro se quedaron sin espacio, vaya estirón esta última semana. Están bastante sanas , tienen muy buen color, se practicó una limpia de bajos y ramas que no eran necesarias porque no llegaran a la luz. Hasta ahora todo bien y ya superamos esta primera semana. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Las maximas de temperatura no superan los 26 grados y las mínimas no bajan 20, así que no me puedo quejar. Los niveles de humedad también son los correctos van entre 50%/65% de humedad relativa. Por supuesto el Ph lo estamos dejando alrededor de 6. Hasta aquí es todo, buenos humos 💨💨💨.

They seem to enter pre flower, did a lot of defoliation.. everything looking good.

💚 Amnesia Haze Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno B Week 7 | Small Pot, Big Dreams Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of the reasons I love growing multiple phenotypes is because every now and then a plant completely rewrites the expectations we had for her. Pheno B is doing exactly that. From the beginning she has been the more compact sister. Shorter. Slightly slower to flower. More reserved in the way she expressed her genetics. But this week... She's making a statement. Looking at her today, it's becoming increasingly difficult to believe she's growing in just 11 litres of soil. Sometimes the plants teach us lessons we weren't planning to learn. And I think this lady is about to teach me one. 🌱 The 12/12 From Seed Adventure If you're joining this diary for the first time, welcome! Every plant in this room has been grown under a 12 hours on / 12 hours off light schedule from the day the seeds germinated. There is no traditional vegetative period. Instead, each phenotype is allowed to express its natural architecture almost immediately, making it much easier to compare stretch, flowering speed, branch development, internodal spacing and overall efficiency. The goal isn't simply producing flowers. It's learning how genetics behave when every environmental variable remains identical. Same room. Same lights. Same nutrients. Same watering. Same environmental conditions. Only the genetics are telling the story. And every week they continue proving just how different sisters can become. 🌿 Why Only an 11 Litre Pot? This run also includes another little experiment. Normally, I prefer giving plants considerably more root volume when growing in soil. So naturally... My curiosity got the better of me. I decided to grow this phenotype in an 11 litre pot, fully expecting the smaller root zone to become the limiting factor later in flower. Instead... She's proving me wrong. The entire plant looks vigorous. Healthy. Balanced. Strong. Which reminds us of something very important. When we're feeding with bottled nutrients, even in soil, we're essentially supplying everything the plant needs directly through the irrigation. The roots still matter enormously. But bigger roots don't automatically guarantee bigger flowers. Genetics. Nutrition. Environment. Root health. Everything works together. This little experiment is becoming a perfect reminder that sometimes there are more variables involved than simple pot size. And honestly... I couldn't be happier about being proven wrong. 🌸 Flower Development Begins Accelerating This week the transition is unmistakable. Stretch is beginning to slow while flower production accelerates across the entire plant. Every growing tip is now producing clusters of bright white pistils. The calyxes are beginning to stack. The future colas are becoming easy to identify. Instead of long empty stems, the branches are now filling with flowering sites that promise to connect beautifully over the coming weeks. One thing I particularly enjoy is how symmetrical everything feels. The branches are evenly spaced. The internodes are short without becoming overcrowded. The central cola remains dominant while every side branch receives plenty of light. It's the kind of structure growers hope for because it naturally lends itself to dense, uniform flower production. Nature really did most of the work here. 🍃 Healthy Leaves Tell Their Own Story One of the easiest ways to judge how comfortable a plant feels is simply by looking at her leaves. This week they're saying everything I hoped to see. Rich green colour. Excellent turgor. No deficiencies. No toxicity. No unnecessary curling. No signs of stress despite the warmer summer temperatures. They're acting exactly as they should: Tiny solar panels converting light into the energy that will eventually become flowers. Sometimes growers become too eager to remove healthy foliage. Personally, I prefer letting the plant decide what she still needs. A little leaf tucking whenever necessary has been more than enough to keep every developing bud site exposed while allowing the canopy to remain full of energy-producing leaves. Sometimes patience is still the best form of training. 💧 Feeding for the Bulking Phase With flowering now fully underway, nutrition continues shifting toward supporting heavy flower production while maintaining healthy metabolism throughout the canopy. This week's feeding program includes: • Plagron Terra Bloom — 2 ml/L • Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L • Plagron Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • Plagron Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Plagron Green Sensation — 1 ml/L • pH adjustment using Plagron pH Plus and Lemon Kick The EC has now increased to 1.95, providing plenty of available nutrition while still allowing the plant to feed comfortably. Green Sensation continues playing an increasingly important role. Rather than acting as a simple PK booster, it supports nutrient uptake, flower development, resin production and overall plant vitality during the weeks when the plant's energy demands increase dramatically. So far... She's absolutely loving it. 💡 Welcoming Lumiflora Under-Canopy Lighting This week also marks another exciting milestone. I've introduced Lumiflora under-canopy lighting into the room. Most growers focus almost exclusively on illuminating the top of the canopy. But once plants begin developing dense flower sites, the lower and inner branches often receive significantly less usable light. That's where under-canopy lighting becomes incredibly interesting. Rather than replacing the main fixture, it complements it. By delivering additional light underneath the canopy, the goal is to improve photosynthesis in areas that would normally spend most of the day in shadow. What am I expecting? • Better lower flower development. • More consistent bud density throughout the plant. • Improved light penetration into the middle of the canopy. • More efficient use of every flowering site. Will it perform miracles? Of course not. Good genetics, healthy roots and proper nutrition will always remain the foundation of a successful grow. But if Lumiflora helps those lower flowers mature closer to the quality of the top colas, it'll become another valuable tool in the garden. I'm genuinely excited to watch the results unfold over the coming weeks. 🌡️ Environmental Conditions Once again, consistency continues doing the heavy lifting. Current grow room conditions: • Week 7 Flower • Height: 130 cm • Light schedule: 12/12 • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • pH: 5.8 • EC: 1.95 mS/cm • Root zone temperature: 21°C • Nutrient solution temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 639 ppm Stable environments allow genetics to express themselves without constantly fighting environmental stress. That's exactly the kind of consistency every grower should aim for. 📸 This Week's Gallery Looking through this week's photographs, it's hard not to smile. The full-plant portraits show a beautifully proportioned structure with impressive symmetry from top to bottom. The macro shots reveal fresh calyxes stacking around every flowering site, while countless bright white pistils continue reaching toward the light. One image that really stands out is the central cola. She's beginning to establish herself with confidence, surrounded by perfectly spaced secondary branches that already hint at a very satisfying canopy later in flower. The foliage remains vibrant and healthy, creating a beautiful contrast against the dark Zamnesia backdrop. Sometimes photographs capture more than appearance. They capture momentum. And that's exactly what these pictures show. This plant has found her rhythm. 🔮 Looking Ahead The coming weeks should become incredibly exciting. Stretch will gradually come to an end. The calyxes will begin swelling. Flower stacking should accelerate across every branch. Resin production will slowly begin increasing. And with the addition of the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting, it'll be fascinating to compare how the lower flowers develop alongside the upper canopy. The little 11 litre pot that initially felt like a questionable decision... May end up becoming one of the biggest surprises of this entire project. She's certainly giving me plenty of reasons to believe it. 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Projects like this remind me that growing is never just about harvesting flowers. It's about learning. Experimenting. Questioning our own assumptions. And sometimes laughing at ourselves when the plants prove us wrong. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing an incredible platform where growers from around the world can learn, share experiences, and document every step of their journey. 🌱 Zamnesia for providing the outstanding genetics making this phenotype hunt possible. 💜 Plagron for supplying the nutrition supporting these ladies from seed to harvest. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the consistent light driving healthy growth every single day. 🌿 Lumiflora for joining the project with innovative under-canopy lighting that I'm excited to evaluate throughout the remainder of this grow. 🌡️ TrolMaster for helping maintain the stable environment that allows every phenotype to express its true genetic potential. And finally... A huge thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, asking questions and sharing your own experiences. This little lady may have started as the quieter sister... But week after week, she's proving that you don't need the biggest pot... ...to dream big. Growers Love. 💚🌿

Noch bisschen Geduld😜
