Hello everyone. Welcome to the jungle update for my biggest MAC 1 F1 Hybrid. I'm starting to wonder if the breeders at Barney’s Farm accidentally used kerosene or jet fuel to breed this monster. She has completely taken over the 150x150 centimeter tent and is still staging a prison break toward the light. Today I had to perform emergency surgery and lower 7 branches because they were practically making out with the light bars. With branches reaching 1 meter in length, I'm worried it's going to take a marathon for nutrients to reach the top buds, so the colas might end up a bit smaller than I’d like. Even so, the bud sites are popping up everywhere and filling in nicely. Now, moving on to her sibling, the smallest MAC 1 F1 Hybrid. I gave both plants a good defoliation today and tucked the branches under the trellis net to maximize our canopy space. Humidity is perfectly dialed in with the dehumidifier, staying at a maximum of 60 percent during the day and 50 percent at night. Both plants are pushing along beautifully, showing that even the troublemakers have great potential. Thank you for stopping by and have a nice week. Growfather.

i decided its time to start flushing this girls, so for this week only i will give them some enzymes and conditioner and after that just water for the next couple of weeks , lets see how long it will take them to finish 😅😆 so far I’m pretty happy with all of them, nothing to point out all is going as supposed 🙏💚 keeping my Par and VPD the same for now but soon i will start lowering them so that by the ending of this cycle I’l finish around 450/600 Ppfd Week 8 day 50 since flipped to 12/12, I’m flushing and all is going as nomal, starting to fade out and I’m loving the frosty levels so far 😅🤩💚💚💚🙏🙏🙏 No idea why this doesn't allow me to crate a new week but I’ll keep updating here Day 59 F And they are getting closer and closer but stil not ready, checking tricomes every day but all still very clear to my taste 😆 i think one more week at least, let’s see how they roll 🙏💪💚 Day 63 F And they are close but not there yet 😅 provably next couple days , I’ll keep on checking 😆 patience is a virtue, specially in this faze 💚😅 Week 11 day 72 FLower and j just gave them last watering 😅😁 they will have the day to enjoy lights as from today there will b no more of it for this girls 😅 i will do a 48h dark before harvest to increase more the tricomes production and the thc/cbd levels . From there hehehe we know whats coming from there , but lets wait for that time to comment on it 😆😅😁 Growers love you all see you on harvest mode asap hihihi Ppfd- 1400 wUmol/m2s VPD-A 1.51 kPa Girls : Tropicana Poison @sweetseeds - 7X Chocolate Skunk @00seeds - 2X Badazz Cookies OG @seedsman- 3X Lights 2X Lumatek Zeus 465W Compact Pro @ 100% All i Grow is medicine for myself, i do it with love for the love 💚💚💚 Growers love to you all💚💚💚

🌱 Week 2 — Purple CousKush Auto | Pheno A | The Little Rebel Finds Her Way Every grow has that one plant that keeps you guessing. When Purple CousKush Auto Pheno A first emerged, she immediately stood out from her sisters. Instead of developing the classic central growing tip, her apical meristem seemed confused, almost as if nature had decided to improvise. At first glance I honestly wondered if she had naturally topped herself, if the main shoot had stalled, or if she was simply going to remain a tiny mutant. Rather than intervene, I decided to do what every grower should occasionally do… Nothing. Sometimes the best decision is to step back and allow the plant to tell her own story. A week later, she has done exactly that. The strange beginning has transformed into one of the most interesting phenotypes in the room. Instead of forcing a single dominant leader, she has begun producing multiple vigorous growing tips from the center, creating a naturally compact structure that already looks fuller than expected for her age. She may be smaller than her sisters, but she certainly isn’t weaker. In fact, she seems to have invested her energy into building a sturdy frame with very tight internodal spacing. The stem is becoming thicker every day, side branches are developing evenly, and the new growth is vibrant, healthy, and full of life. Her architecture is completely different from the other Purple CousKush phenotypes, reminding us why growing from seed is always such an adventure. Every individual expresses the genetics in its own unique way. This is exactly why I love documenting these grows. If I had judged her during Week 1, I might have assumed she would never become anything special. Instead, patience has rewarded me with one of the most fascinating little plants in the entire 8×8 Adventure. Sometimes the odd ones simply need a little extra time before revealing their true personality. Environment remains stable inside the tent, with temperature, humidity and VPD staying right where I want them. The Plagron substrate continues to provide an excellent home for healthy root development, while the Zamnesia ecosystem keeps everything running smoothly under consistent lighting and airflow. For now, there is nothing to correct. No stress. No intervention. Just observation. I’ll continue letting her write her own story while I simply provide the conditions she needs to thrive. If Week 2 has taught me anything, it’s this: Not every champion starts with a perfect beginning. Some simply take the scenic route. 💚 Growers Love and thank you to Plagron, Zamnesia, Grow Diaries, and everyone following this 8×8 Adventure. Every week reminds me that every seed carries its own personality, and this little Purple CousKush has already become one of the most memorable characters in the garden.

Very nice dark green with reddish stems, which seems to be a trait from gelatos to me, with amazing inter node spacing. No need for small defoliation or LST with a plant like that!

After 48 hours, these things are beast. I thought they needed more time, I couldn’t judge how long they were. I had to dig them out of the paper towel, learned that I need to use cheaper paper towels. 6 out of 6 germinated on my first grow. Let’s keep the same growth going. ******************************* 14 Hours After Potting ************** TEMPS The most recent video showing the domes is 14 hours after potting them. The temps have been very stable at 83F and 70% humidity. My ambient temp outside of the tent is 70F. AIR FLOW I’m currently only running a 6 inch fan above the light for circulation. I have not used the exhaust, I think the idea at this stage is to keep humidity high, any thoughts would be great. LIGHTNING I do have my TSW on max and lowered the height to 36 inches it was almost twice the height yesterday. I didn’t want to make the change so drastic and waited a bit before lowering the height. WATERING The top soil did feel a bit dry and a little moist under. Under the dome it still looks very moist. I sprayed the plastic domes, I’m using distilled ph’d water. I did some light watering on the soil but I’m not sure how much water I should be using . Now that I lowered the height soil should dry out quicker, any thoughts?

Day 45 - 26/11 - She is looking very good, leaves a perky and buds are growing. Day 47 - 28/11 - The trichome production is really starting nicely, I can start smelling her. Day 49 - 30/11 - She was top dressed with fresh vermicast and a few teaspoon of a top dress mix (at the bottom), all of that was mulched with a layer of erograstus grass. --------- Top dress mix : Equal parts Alfalfa meal, Rock dust, Kelp meal, Insect frass.

Week 7 – The Pest is Dead Found the source of the whiteflies – two infested CBD plants I’d placed in the tent. Removed them, and since then only a few flies on traps. Problem solved. Buds are swelling nicely with more trichomes and orange pistils. Some yellowing leaves toward the end of the week, likely natural fade. Watered twice with pH water and gave one light HESI feed (½ dose) on Sunday. Dimmed light from level 7 to 6; PPFD is ~800 top / ~550 lower. Everything’s on track!

Hello:) So this week was really interesting. I saw something that I‘ve never seen before. On 4 leaves of the front right sangria there are flowers growing ON the leaves? You can see it on the last photo and towards the end of the video. Anyone knows what that is? @growerschoice it surely has to do with this being a triploid right?:) Furthermore I added some bactrex and orgatrex this week, continued watering as normal and the plants look nice. The buds are stacking like crazy. I also have a war going on with the insects… I have now 4 sticky traps and kill about 50 each day manually, I hope they dont destroy the roots too much… It‘s getting under control but I had to something… Also I feel like the wasabi is almost done… Like 2 more weeks while the sangrias look like they need at least 3-4 more weeks. Let‘s see, so far I‘m happy with the results:)

Week 6: here we go! So been smooth ride so far only had to do an emergency lst to the runtz to prevent her from getting burned by the light hopefully it will not be so stressful for her. The pineapple express is also going for the stretch also. Only the blue cheese are contented with her hight no stretching! But she worries me a bit with her leaves as she seems to grow only 3 fingers, hopefully nothing bad though!

Monday Gave her some enzyme, I think it's supposed to help the plant break down nutrients so we'll see. I'm exactly 70 days from seed, 63 days since I transplant it to the 10 gallon pot, it should be a 10 week auto flower so I'm hoping I'm close to harvest. The flowers are really starting to turn purple now, I suspect its a sign that it's finishing, looks really cool close up! Tuesday No work done today, dry day. I think the buds are ripening, that purple is really starting to come out right across the canopy, can wait to see what it's like right before cutting 😀 Wednesday Gave her 5l of water with 5ml of plagron pure enzyme, I'm checking the trichromes under a glass every day now to try catch the right time to harvest, the buds are so frosty, still clear trics I thunk. Thursday Dry day today, its very nearly finished, trics are stating to turn Amber, I reckon I will give it a week more, maybe less and then I'm cutting! Friday Just clean water today, nearly at the point of cutting! Saturday No work done today, tomorrow is the last watering, its going into 2 days of darkness and then I'm cutting, so much work now so close! Sunday OK, so I think I've given it the last watering, I've just turned off the light and I'm going to leave it in complete darkness for 48hrs, then it's cutting time! 😀 I'm going to hang the plant whole, I'm only going remove some of the bigger fan leaves then dry trim, I've read that it's better that way, we'll see

8/25 put in closet for 48 hrs of darkness before harvest 8/28 actually did almost 3 days of darkness but started trimming and chopping. Getting ready to hang. Day 1. 8/29: 72°F and 50% humidity. Still wet. Even the small buds Day 2. 8/30: 70°F and 47% humidity Day 3. 8/31: 70°F and 52% humidity. Looking more dry than id prefer after 3 days of drying. But the conditions arent exactly ideal. Day 4. 9/1: 70°F and 49% humidity. Humidity dropped which sucks! Day 5. 9/2: 75°F and 37 humidity. Temperatures rose and humidity dropped a lot. Buds are super crispy. Im gonna let them go another day. Day 6. 9/3: time to jar the buds for curing. Dry weight is 43 grams

Agora sem aplicações de técnicas, apenas fertilizantes e água, para que a energia da planta seja usada nos botões, quero ver lindos botões, densos e resinados . Por enquanto estou bem satisfeito com o resultado, essas próximas 3 semanas , acredito, serão decisivas para definir um boa produção.

6/20/21 - They look great! On track and the stretch has stopped completely. See pics and video from today… 6/21/21 - Day 30 of flower! Half way there :) They’ve been drinking water without any runoff coming out of the pots. Also the stretch has stopped and they look good. 6/22/21 - On track. Good size buds and a good smell. Excited for harvest! The room is filling up with flowers. 6/23/21 - I am still feeding with the nutrients listed above which is Week 9 on the schedule. 6/24/21 - We are very happy with the growth and bud size. They look and smell great! 6/25/21 - They are doing well. Just flowering away. I’ll post pics soon. Other than feeding them I am just letting the plants flower. No techniques being used. 6/26/21 - I missed a week on the feeding schedule and gave it straight water. I’m going to run Week 9 again and go from there.

Waiting for first signs of life … While we are, I thought I’d give you a short explanation on the software’s graphics in case you did not follow my first diary. The one to the upper left, as its headline says, is the temperature graph. Most important line is the red one, showing the leaf temperature measured with an infrared temperature sensor. As there are no leaves yet, it is pointed towards one of the pot’s wall at soil level. Air temperature from a sensor that usually hangs around somewhere around top level is violet, and the grey line is the outside temperature close to the tent, helping the software to determine if a main blower action will effectively lower temperature. As I learned from the first grow a plant day that corresponds to the natural day can cause enormous gaps both to temperature and humidity, I inverted the plant day now, starting their night at 11 a.m. So after the first day temperature will only vary around 1.5 °C, which is of course due to the low light intensity too. Humidity graph on the upper right is quite crowded. Main line is the blue one, tent air humidity, which on this first day was between excellent 65 – 70% most of the time. For the moment humidifier is electrically disabled. There is quite some excess humidity on the tent floor and no reason to push this any further. Outside air humidity is grey again and taken from the same outside sensor that reports outside temperature. The soil humidity sensors are simple analogue capacitive sensors which have their flaws. I am interpolating their measurements to have a somewhat smoother reading, but as you can see from the turquoise humidifier reservoir reading (in legend named as plant soil hum 1), they can get confused when humidity is very high and start to report random numbers for some time. The most important graph for all growing stages is the lower left one, where the pink line meaning plant VPD should be inside the green optimum range for somewhat perfect conditions. This cannot be attained all of the time – dehumidifying isn’t as easy as humidifying –, but software tries its best to do so. Outside VPD is grey again. The last graph is more for amusement than anything else. The light intensity sensor is hard to position correctly, and everything you see about illumination and DLI (orange and green, plus grey for the accumulated 24 h DLI) should be taken with some spoonful of salt. Any resemblance to real world professional instrument readings can be considered purely coincidental. The violet line is the CO2 reading from such a sensor, and you can see that its tiny peaks correspond to even tinier black peaks at the bottom of the graph, reading TVOC values which in this case, once they will be more than possible measurement irregularities, can be interpreted as smell. ------- End of week 1: All seeds germinated. I wasn’t at home most of the time, and it turned out using the humidity sensor to monitor the humidifier’s tank wasn’t good for the stability of the system. Arduino crashed, so there are no pictures yet and no graphs to show. I have the feeling light was a bit low as the seedlings grew a bit tall, but with lights now up to 20% I guess this problem is fixed. More tomorrow when I have some more data to share. Even more end of week 1 (I extended this week to 9 days as I cannot tell when the seedlings started to show): Lights are at 40%, meaning 40 W in total. No reason to give them new water until next week. As some flies showed up from the BioBizz soil, I added 2 yellow cards. So far, everything in normal ranges. I’ll switch the control to grow phase soon which will raise the VPD slightly by 0.5 kPa. It’s interesting to see the CO2 level started to climb by 50% during their last night and has not come down to baseline afterwards. I restarted the app to check if the sensor had lost its calibration, but it still sits at around 660 ppm now.
