9/30-10/6 10/4: Today, we are halfway through the third week of flower. Bud sites everywhere. Leaves look great. Environment on point. No issues. The smaller plant has completely caught up and is now the larger plant by a little. The plants are sliiiiiightly different colors. It's not yet possible to tell if it's phenotypic variation or just different N levels in the medium. Curious to see how things turn out. The one other time I grew a Barney's Farm plant was the only other time I've grown two plants at once. They looked extremely different from one another. One looked like the pic on the package, and one didn't at all. One had the advertised terpene profile, one didn't. pH upped to 6.1-6.2 I got really paranoid about the pot bases because people online were complaining that roots grew into the wicks and stopped water flow. So, I pulled off a delicate and difficult operation where I pulled out (one of) the bases and swapped in a clean one. In the second one I replaced the wick lines. Neither seemed to be particularly rooty. I think that's because I didn't use the bases through most of the veg stage when the roots are growing. Anyway, the bases are clean now. One last thing: I put ArmorSi and CalMag in the reservoir of the "smaller" plant. In the other one, I only put ArmorSi. It seems like the branches are pretty flimsy, but it's still early in flower.

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno B Week 6 | Elegance in Every Leaf Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of the greatest joys of a phenotype hunt is discovering that every plant has its own personality. Some demand attention with explosive growth. Some race toward the finish line. Others quietly develop into something special without ever asking to be the centre of attention. Cash Express Pheno B belongs to that last group. She isn't the tallest plant in the room. She isn't the fastest. She isn't trying to compete with anyone. She's simply growing exactly as she wants to—and every week she becomes a little more beautiful because of it. 🌿 A Plant That Speaks Through Her Leaves One of the first things that catches my eye every time I visit this lady is her foliage. Large, perfectly formed seven-finger fan leaves stretch confidently toward the light, creating one of the cleanest leaf structures in the entire room. They're deep green. Healthy. Symmetrical. Every leaf almost looks like it was carefully drawn before nature decided to build it. For me, leaves tell an important part of a plant's story. Long before the flowers reach their full potential, healthy foliage tells us that the engine driving everything underneath is working exactly as it should. And this engine is running beautifully. 🌼 The Flowering Story Begins Flower development is now becoming more obvious throughout the canopy. The first clusters of white pistils continue multiplying, and what were small pre-flowers only a week ago are now beginning to resemble true bud sites. This is one of my favourite stages of cultivation. Every day the changes are subtle... Yet when you compare photographs from one week to the next, it's amazing how quickly those tiny flowers begin stacking into something much more impressive. She's still directing a good portion of her energy toward the final stretch, but you can already see that her priorities are changing. Less focus on producing new branches. More focus on building flowers. Week by week, she'll continue shifting her energy away from growing taller and toward creating the dense blooms we're all waiting for. 🍃 Sometimes the Best Training Is No Training This week has been wonderfully uneventful. No defoliation. No heavy training. No major adjustments. Just a little gentle leaf tucking whenever a fan leaf decided to shade a developing flower site. I've learned over the years that these early flowering weeks are often best approached with patience rather than scissors. The plant is making enormous hormonal changes during this transition, and I prefer disturbing her as little as possible while she settles into her new rhythm. Sometimes growers feel the need to do something every day. Sometimes the smartest decision is simply to observe. This week, observation was more than enough. 🍽️ Feeding The nutrition program continues supporting both the final stretch and early flower development. This week's feeding included: • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L Along with small pH adjustments using Lemon Kick and pH Plus whenever necessary. Unlike some of her sisters, Pheno B isn't asking for much more just yet. A few older leaves have begun naturally giving back some stored nutrients, but nothing suggests she's under stress. It's simply another reminder that plants recycle energy where it's needed most. For now, she's happy. And so am I. 🌡️ Environment The flowering room continues running exactly as planned. • Day temperature averaged 29°C • Night temperature remained around 25°C • Relative humidity averaged 60% • Solution temperature stayed close to 24°C • Root zone remained near 21°C • Atmospheric CO₂ averaged 639 ppm With stable environmental conditions and consistent feeding, the plant can dedicate nearly all of her energy to flower production instead of constantly adapting to changing conditions. Consistency is often the secret ingredient behind healthy gardens. 📸 Behind This Week's Photos This week's photographs highlight something I absolutely love about this phenotype. The architecture is incredibly elegant. The internode spacing is balanced. The branching remains clean and open. And those beautiful seven-finger fan leaves frame every developing flower site almost perfectly. The close-up shots reveal fresh pistils reaching confidently into the light, while the full-plant photographs show a structure that should provide excellent airflow throughout flowering. There's a calm confidence about this plant. She isn't trying to impress anyone. She simply looks comfortable being herself. Sometimes those are the phenotypes that surprise you the most by harvest day. 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should mark another exciting step in her journey. I expect the stretch to begin slowing as the flowers take over as the plant's primary focus. Those small clusters of pistils should begin stacking together, giving us our first glimpse of the colas she'll eventually produce. We'll continue with the same philosophy: Minimal interference. Gentle leaf tucking when necessary. Careful observation. And letting the plant decide the pace. Sometimes the best growers aren't the ones who do the most. They're the ones who know when to simply watch nature do what it has perfected over millions of years. 💚 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this adventure.

All pictures were taken on day 63 Buds are stacking up and her smell is intensifying. I found these thingis with my smartphones zoom. They are not really visible to the naked eye I gave about 2 liters with 0.7ml/l Top-Max & Bio-Bloom & Bio-Grow More lower leaves are getting yellowish but it should be fine with current feeding✊

VIDEO ADDED: DEC 29 2020! -- PHOTOS ADDED: DEC 27 2020! MORE COMING VIDEO?! -- Smell is starting to come down from the fresh cut, definitely has a great look to the bud as the cure goes on, have two 8 gram boveda packs in there after a few days with one that was WAY too big for it 😂 Brought down my Chocolate Mint OG in my other diary right now as well, way more weight to that last plant... probably more than both these Chem Bombs combined, great genetics over @Humboldt_seed_organization 😎 -- PHOTOS ADDED: DEC 23 2020! MORE COMING! -- DEC 19 2020 - Harvest Day Chem-Bomb Auto .. DONE. Step-Brothers ... CHOPPED. Buds.. TRIMMED. Giving them my first bud wash tomorrow! Already juiced the lemon, have the spring water, and off-brand baking soda because COVID has every place sold out of Arm&Hammer 😂 Dale: 50 Grams Wet Buds/Stem 15 Grams Trim/Larf = Total 65 Grams Wet Brennan: 55 Grams Wet Buds/Stem 12 Grams Trim/Larf = 67 Grams Wet Total Wet: 132 Grams (Buds/Stems/Trim) Looks like I'm getting in and around the "1 Ounce per Auto Plant" range with my basic soil/hand feed system. The CMOG from my other diary looks like it will be my first 1OZ plant when it dries. With my past experience of wet buds drying out to about half of bud weight, I'm hoping that they both come in JUST under an Oz a piece. Going to update with more pictures, going to take a couple days to dry and get a good weight and hopefully get somewhere close to the 64 grams of the ONLY sized Boveda packs I have right now 😇 -- UPDATE - Dec 20 2020 - Cure Day 😵😭 i once again got my hopes up by pulling the classic male "over-exaggerating" and all the wet weight came from the main stems. After 3 days or so of drying both plants together came in just under an ounce. The smell is great and I have no doubt it's quality bud but I need to up my density game somehow for sure. New nutrients or better set up, still very low-end with all my equipment as I've just slowly been finding affordable pieces to add as I go. Maybe more light? Feel free to hit me up below with ideas short of switching to a Hydro set up 😹 I can hardly afford my bags of soil so I definitely couldnt keep up with the financial costs of a Hydro set up yet 😓 Have had a few bowls of the dried/uncured bud and it's very nice, clean, and crazy good for being uncured at this point. Just the classic flower taste from the chlorophyll but the pineapple/tropical taste is coming through nice already. Final Stats: 26g Dried Bud 26g Trim -- Thanks for checking in! Will be updating soon and posting more pictures! Throw down a like and/or follow so I can return the favour 🙌 -- IG: @GlazedGrow (DM and let me know you're from Grow Diaries so i can follow back!)

From the leftovers and plant cutting Ive managed to make some bubble hash. Its easy and fun to do. Thnx Seeds Genetics Co for the nice genetics and see you next time

So I had absolutely no ill effect on the plants at at all moving from the green buzz veg feed too the house & garden soil a&b feeds, I did not even given them a water only inbetween the two, I also went straight in with 50% the recommended dose stated on the house & Gardens bottles this switched happened the day before week 5 none showed any signed of defects or deficiency intact they exploded into life over night and then every day after that, I have been using the green buzz fast buds as a folar spry appied too the leaves of the early flower formation after lights out, They seemed too love that too and I also kept the note roots going in, I also started too apply C-RESULT at the fullbl dose stated on the bottle, The plants live this stuff if you have not tried it do it, I am not sponcered by c-result I was given this by my local grow store, It brings all the nutrients straight too the roots it states, All I know is this stuff triggers the plants too suck the pots dry in 24 hours, So make sure you have your feed bucket fully in order before adding this stuff as a mistake here could cost you, But get it right and in 24 hours these little autos doubled in size, It states too used week one of flower only and smells like a sewer lol I have today day one of week 6 Started too add house & garden Bud XL at half strength too increase next week and also I added there top shooter at 1ml per liter of water as 7 as I plan too removed all chemicals exactly as of day 1 of week 7 leaving me week 9 clean, I am training all the shooting tips too my scrog netting the best I can due too very limited space in the grow space, And am praying for some of the promised purple leaves on the fast buds Web site, I has on lemon pie this round that is 2 weeks behind the rest due too non germination but I am wondering if a staggered planting each plant exactly one week behind each other would give me a little more canapé space and the treat of harvesting a plant every week, Using the skyline 1000 only I did not too any of these autos 2 x strawberry cheese cake 2 x lemon pie 4 x fyah Sounds like a plan too me, Thanks for reading

Day 86, 5th of December 2020: Craziest group I have ever had... Honestly I just want to see the end. I will be away for 2 weeks almost. Original Sensible Seeds ladies are dope. Gelato is very nice proper shape one of my favourite she is just nice and not problematic.... :) Runtz Gum is amazing nice big buds are on the way really nice! The same no problem with her at all!!!! Do-Si-Dos OG is just crazy.... She is not an easy lady... problematic... never met a plant like this one. ... Too much strech and now I need to tie and stand her up somehow i broke one branch.... I put a tape arounf so hopefully saves that bud tho....🤣 Her flowers kill her lol Black Ghost OG is sweet and good girl she is the easiest player from them she is good for begginners similar to Wedding Gelato even is shape haha.... Wedding Gelato from RQS is just perfect no problem with her at all... good for begginners as well... :) So This is how it is 5th week has started I just wanna get it done really long journey :) The lamp is now on 11 hours and off 13 hours. Every week 15 minutes was taken off and after 4 weeks here we go. Strated 12/12 and now 13/11 wanted try to imitate the nature as the light days are getting shorter. Fertilization has changed no more epsom salt from this week and I will stop giving nitrogen as well from next week.

When should they start flowering?

August 23th: (F6) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1150 EC 6.1 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off August 24th: (F7) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1150 EC 6.1 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off August 25th: (F8) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1150 EC 6.2 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off August 26th: (F9) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1150 EC 6.2 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off August 27th: (F10) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1150 EC 6.2 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off August 28th: (F11) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1150 EC 6.2 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off August 29th: (F12) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1150 EC 6.2 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off Supercropped the 4 taller branches on the PE2 as a test and to get them at same level Note: The Tut height is at the EXTREME limit had to remove the tray to gain 2 inch, will have to get the light at the roof of the tent and hope it will do it, first run of my life in 48 inch height space will learn from it for the next runs! :)

Hallo Growlegen, wir zählen Blüte Tag 10 und den Blümchen geht's soweit sehr gut 😁 Sie messen jetzt ca 85 cm 📏 Beide wachsen ähnlich, die Gushers hat etwas längere Internodien und Frau Kush ist etwas kompakter und buschiger. Beide haben leichte gelbe Spitzen, aber mein VPD ist auch nicht ideal. 😞 Der PPFD liegt erst bei ca.650 und Lampe bei 60 %- da müsste eigentlich noch was gehen, oder was meint ihr ? ☀️🌤️⛅🌥️ Ein einziges Blatt der Gushers zeigt etwas Calmag Mangel - aber sonst nix zu sehen außer die typische Blüteaufhellung. Der Stretch der letzten Tage war schon ordentlich, aber noch passt die Höhe ✅ Wir freuen uns alle schon auf den Friseur Termin in nächster Zeit (noch 11 Tage Geduld), da muss dringend gestutzt werden im Unterholz ✂️ Grüne Grüße Rocko 💚

Been wanting to grow this strain for a while now so many people have grown it and it had huge buds I’m excited. Everything I have grown from fastbuds so far grows really well

Well this is a switch. The plant that was small has caught up to the bigger one and the bigger one is slowly getting better. Was having a issue with my tank temperature and luckily both plants seem to have avoided any issues. They both do have a bit of purple in the stems but it seems to be fading so I'm hoping that there issues are sorted out lol. Today is the last day of veg and the first day of flower is to come. If it goes a full 8 to 9 weeks I'll be looking at a March harvest. If that's the case I might be able to squeeze in a quick auto flower grow before the family summer vacation lol. The temperature has been getting warmer outside and the night time temperature hasn't been to bad. The humidity has been stay around 50% all week and thats were id like to keep it but we're expecting a lot of rain over the next few weeks so we'll see how well that works. I picked up 2 more temperature hydrometer meters with probes for the room. And with all the fans the air movement in the room has been great. Humidity and temperature is the same in every corner of the 8x9 room. I switched the lights from 24/0 to 18/6 this last week to get them ready for the approaching 12/12 light schedule. And because that is tomorrow I lowered the lights down so that tomorrow I just have to turn the lights up. I also emptied my tank and refilled it with the nutrients for flower so that the treys can empty a bit before I add all the new nutrients. I filled all the trays before I turned it all off so they would have enough for the night. Well that's all for now, happy growing and happy new years!!! Keep it growing!!!

Day 100 Day 57 Flower 06/07/24 Saturday Flushed with de-chlorinated tap water today pH 6.0. Flushing using 10L of water with Flawless finish- I'll be using this every other flush. , getting 50% run off, I can't measure ppm, I have ordered the tool to start learning this way also. I haven't measured run off ppms before so will be interesting to see. Smelling pungent, deep greens of colour coming through, hoping over the next 2 weeks she swells as she is not as dense as I was hoping 😅 Day 10day 58 Flower 07/07/24 Sunday No feed /water today letting her dry off a little more. Updated with a short 🤩💚 Day 102 Day 59 Flower 08/07/24 Monday De-chlorinated tap Water 5L pH 6.0 + 3L Water +calmag 5ml to keep her from deficiency during 1st week of flush. Updated a short video 😁 She's getting there. Day 103 Day 60 Flower 09/07/24 Tuesday No water, letting her dry off again ABIT, noticing a huge amount of trichome production, updated a short to see 😍. Day 104 Day 61 Flower 10/07/24 Wednesday Another 10L flush today , de-chlorinated tap water pH 6.0 with flawless finish. 10ml flawless finish to 10L water. Updated pictures and video. Day 105 Day 62 Flower 11/07/24 Thursday Last day of the week, another big flush today! 10L de-chlorinated tap water pH 6.0 with 10ml Flawless finish 👌 Trichomes...😍 She maybe a 21 day flush we'll see how she goes next week with ripening. Video updated.

Here we go! This should be an epic run! Hella Jelly by Humboldt. A rare sativa strain nowadays with a 45 day flowering cycle. If you know me, I'm in love with the Orange Creamsicle x Hella Jelly cross. I've run it twice now so I know I'm gonna love the parent genetics. This is under the Medic Grow Mini-Sun-2. This 150w light is built for the 2x2. I've got it up high but will lower slightly accordingly. I've been spraying the tops with water twice a day and will do that until one week. Dimmed to 40% Here are the lights details: Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 150W LED Model: MN150-022 Spectrum mode: V1 Efficacy: 2.8 umol/J Thanks for stopping by! You can find the light on Grow Diaries: https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow/mini-sun-2-150-watts You can find the light on Medic Grow's website: https://medicgrow.com/

Beginn Woche 5 Blüte 🥀 Es wurde nochmal etwas entlaubt. Nun passt die Rlf auch wieder. Muss sagen die entwickeln sich beide gut. Gerade die rechte hatt schöne internodienabstände und bei beiden schöne solide Triebe💪 Blumat funktioniert einwandfrei👍 Die 50l im Tank reichen gerade so etwa 1 Woche. Nachdem es letzte Woche den Tee und n Topdress gab, gibt's erstmal wieder nur Wasser.

Woche 3 (4seit Keimung) – Vegetationsphase startet richtig durch Die Mädels sind jetzt offiziell in Woche 4 angekommen und man merkt deutlich, dass sie langsam in die nächste Phase gehen. Das Wachstum hat in den letzten Tagen nochmal spürbar angezogen und die Struktur wird von Tag zu Tag stabiler. Alle Pflanzen stehen aktuell in 15L Töpfen und entwickeln sich insgesamt sehr gleichmäßig, auch wenn man langsam erste Unterschiede zwischen den Strains erkennt. ⸻ Pflanzenentwicklung Die meisten Pflanzen zeigen jetzt eine schöne, kompakte Struktur mit kurzen Internodien und kräftigen Stämmen. Besonders die GMO bleibt schön gedrungen, während z. B. Blueberry und teilweise Runtz etwas mehr nach oben wollen. Die Blätter sind satt grün und vital, das neue Wachstum ist teilweise etwas heller, was aber bei dem Tempo absolut normal ist. Insgesamt wirken alle Pflanzen gesund und stressfrei. ⸻ Licht & Setup Die Lampe wird weiterhin schrittweise erhöht (aktuell moderat gefahren), was sich positiv auf den Wuchs auswirkt. Kein Stretch, keine Anzeichen von Lichtstress – genau so soll’s sein. Momentan steht die SF3000 bei 50% Leistung mit einem Abstand von 45-50cm. Der Abstand passt aktuell gut, ich werde die Intensität weiterhin in kleinen Schritten steigern. ⸻ Klima Die Bedingungen sind aktuell ziemlich stabil: • Temperatur: ~20–23°C • Luftfeuchtigkeit: ~60–65% • VPD: ~0.9 kPa Damit liege ich ziemlich genau im optimalen Bereich für die Vegi. ⸻ Gießen Gegossen wird weiterhin kontrolliert im äußeren Ring, um die Wurzeln nach außen zu ziehen. Die Bodenfeuchte liegt aktuell bei ~34%, was sich als sehr guter Wert herausgestellt hat. Man merkt jetzt schon, dass der Wasserverbrauch langsam anzieht. Liege jetzt bei 500ml jeden 3. Tag. ⸻ Nährstoffe Aktuell läuft noch alles über die vorgedüngte Erde. Da jetzt Woche 4 gestartet ist, werde ich in den nächsten Tagen anfangen, den Green House Bio Bloom vorsichtig einzuarbeiten, damit die Nährstoffe rechtzeitig verfügbar sind, wenn die Vorblüte einsetzt. ⸻ Ausblick In den nächsten Tagen wird sich entscheiden, wie stark ich eingreife. Leichtes LST ist geplant – vor allem bei den etwas streckfreudigeren Pflanzen, um ein gleichmäßiges Canopy zu bekommen. Ansonsten gilt weiterhin: beobachten, reagieren, nicht übertreiben. ⸻ Fazit Ich bin aktuell echt zufrieden mit dem Stand. Die Pflanzen sehen gesund aus, das Setup läuft stabil und alles entwickelt sich genau in die Richtung, die ich mir vorgestellt habe. Vielen Dank fürs reinschauen meine growmis, Updates folgen 🏻
