I'm going away for 30 days about a week into this grow. I'm going to automate weeks 1 through 5 by using the Blumat watering system along with the automated fan from AC Infinity. Hopefully, these will keep things going while I'm gone. I've never used the Blumat products before and I'm excited to see their potential. If I succeed, I'll return to happy 5-week old plants. If not, I'll have to start a new grow...which is what I was going to do anyway. I have nothing to lose but a couple of seeds. Let's get this automated grow started. Day 1 - I placed the seeds directly in a fist-sized clump of Coast of Maine Seed Starter soil that was then placed in a 3-gallon pot full of Coast of Maine Stonington Blend. This will ensure the seedling doesn't get exposed to the nutrient-rich soil too soon. I set the light 2 feet above the top of the pots so they have room to grow into the 18" to 12" range. I also set the light strength to 60% during germination. The temperature in the tent remained 75 degrees and humidity was 70%. I also covered the soil over the germinating seeds with mason jars to act as humidity domes. Day 4 - Both pots sprouted this morning. I immediately removed the mason jar humidity domes. I also increased the light to 70% strength and installed the Blumat watering system to help me keep things growing while I'm gone.

That was the most difficult week. It was very cold and rainy, the humidity of the air reached 90% at most, but without sequels, thank God. On day 63, I defoliated and she is strong, fat and definitely smells like cheese.

In dieser Woche haben die Blüten an Größe dazu gewonnen. Auch Trichome bilden sich jetzt um die Blütenblätter und der Geruch wird langsam stärker.😳 Vorallem süße und Zitronen Terpene sind schon heraus zu riechen 🍋🍬⛽️ Ich habe jetzt den Blühstimulator etwas reduziert und dafür Overdrive dazu gegeben, denn jetzt wird es an der Zeit die Blüten zu mästen.😏 Leider sind die braunen bis rostfarbenen Punkte auf den Blättern nicht verschwunden.. es hat sich aber zu letzter Woche verlangsamt. Ich halte den pH-Wert weiterhin etwas höher wie zu Beginn und hoffe das es so stoppt. Den Blüten hat es weiterhin noch nicht geschadet.🌱🍀

Loaded her up with a bit of milk and sugar and she’s looking good.

5/10 Got up super early for wife's appointment at 7 came home and transplanted 4 of the purple punches. Transplants went good. Soil was too dry and a couple fell right in the hole but I was messing around showing my dad. It just got dropped in the hole a little harder lol. The other that happened to is fine though. Definitely make sure your soil is moist enough before transplanting. My transplanting technique for 3 gallon is to put soil on bottom. Set cup in at appropriate distance then replace cup with plant with soil filled cup and fill around it. Leaves the perfect hole. Then you just snip the cups twice on each side, peel it down and fold the cup down and cradle the bottom and in the hole it goes! Holes have mykoscand a little like water. I water a little after transplant. I misted soil whole mixing it up. 5/11 Dad left the windows open last night "because the soil smell was bothering Lynda." I couldn't ficking believe it. They were all fine when I got back but still. Everything is transplanted into 3 gallon containers bit that 1 purple punch that is a little bit dwarfed. I looked at the bottom of the cup and drainage wasn't as good. Must've been the last cup and the jail didn't go all the way through in a couple places. I increased the drainage on that little dwarf and I'll transplant it when I get time. We are going to have some good weather coming up. I need to get my cage moved, my bags sanitized and get on a good watering routine. UPDATE: Went back over at four and everything's dry as fuck but the leaves are uo and every one of them looks happy so I'm holding off watering. I'll start with a quart probably tomorrow. Also cleaned out tge cage and secured the handles to move it. Only thing left is cleaning and sanitizing. These girls have a south facing window and they LOVE it. It was 80 today. I hope we have an early season. 5/12 Transplanted the last purple punch today. I could easily tell the problem was drainage. It was the last cup I had stacked when I drove the nail threw so it didn't pierce all the way the the other slips and tac holes apparently weren't enough. Used mykos and same soil mixture. Soil was extremely dry. I lifted a pot with dry soil and these were heavier. Commercial buddy said to start with a quart a pliant and see how it goes but I kind pussed out and only gave them 24fl 0z a plant. Half the quart. I asked if I should water more and he said to just wait and see how they like this water and up it to a quart next time maybe quart and a half. Im just leery of overwatering. When i watered SOME of them the water literally just sat there and took forever to absorb. Plants werent wilting though. Soon theyll be going outside during the day and in mdoors at night. UPDATE: Went back over at two and everything looks AMAZING. Healthiest looking plants I've grown. Leaves all pointed up. I'm taking my commercial dudes advice and hoping the water next watering. For now, they're doing amazing. 5/13 Everything is doing greatcso far. Gotta figure out when to start nutes. Considering adding silica but don't want to raise ph to much. I'll consult with others but my the soil blend I'm using is full of nutes. 5/14 Rushed morning and I wanted to water bit the plants looked great still. Sticking my hands deeper I can feel a little moisture deeper down or in the drain holes so I decided to give the blueberry cheese and the 10th planet a "touch of kindness" which was a small circle of water from a small watering can around the outside edge of whete the rootball should lid be. I'm working on getting a watering g schedule down. UPDATE: Went back over at five and everything was looking good with leaves praying. Maybe my half measure helped. Doubtful but still. Tomorrow I plan to water. Since the soil has tons of nites ill probably hold off a little while longer before starting the nutrient schedule. I want to make sure I've got the watering down first. One thing at a time. 5/15 The 10th planet and Blueberry Cheesecgot their first REAL watering since transplant. Still being cautious I watered 28fl Oz a plant. I phed the water with an indicator solution and ph down. I gave the purple punches a "cup of kindness" which was a circle of water around the transplant hole. Can't waif to get a watering schedule down. I wanted to start nutes but my soil is full of them and i believe it's too early. I didn't see ANY run off from this watering. I think that's good as I'm not looking to wash away the nutes in the expensive soil I use. I need to start HST as well but I'm doing things proper and "one at a time". That way if I run into a problem I'll know what I did and how to rectify it. At least I hope. UPDATE: Went back over at 3 leary that I may have "overwatered" but the plants ALL looked AMAZING and had shot up like an inch! Looking into hst and will probable fim a few. Top a few and leave one to grow naturally. Can't wait to see how these girls do outside. 5/16 Wow. Just wow. Plants are doing phenomenal! Since the watering went really well I watered the purple punch bit I only used about 16fl Oz as the plants were a little smaller than the others. I'll up it to a quart next time like I did with the others. I want to USE the nutes in my soil so im not washing them all away by watering to run off. I topped 2 10th planet's and FIMed one of them. I want to see how the respond then I'll begin training the others. Off to a Great Start! 5/17 Glad I held off watering. It's raining today. Just showers. We haven't gotten any of that extreme wind we usually do. I have the plants supported but I still worry. Definitely more than I should. Plants are still doing good and acclikatimg to their new homes.

Couple be happier I started this grow now some old guy hit me the other day and totaled my car. I have zero intention on selling any just so happy to know I’m gonna be saving a lot on it soon

swett bourbon auto kush

- Raised cal mag from 3 to 5 because I thought plant was lacking cal mag - Upped nutes but it may have led to nute burn in the next few weeks (see pics) - ~350-400 ppm for half nutes - buds starting to form nicely

Pretty happy with the grow and the harvest, the drying went well also! Each grow highlights changes for the next and this has been no different! I'll be making more training adjustments in the next runs to try and refine the vertical scrog and get to the point where it's a wall 1 bud thick! I know it will get there in the end it's just like relearning how to do a horizontal scrog! I just need to predict the way the plant will respond when the light is from the sides! Bravery and brutality during pruning I think is the key! 😂✌️💚

💜 Purple CousKush Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B | Week 13 ✨ The Beautiful Sister Steps Into the Macro Spotlight 🔬❄️💜 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And before we get into this beautiful girl... I owe you all a small apology. 😂💜📸 Last week, when I was going through the stacked photographs, I realized that I had mixed up some of the photo stacks between Purple CousKush Pheno A and Pheno B. This run, I originally labeled the stacks simply with the cultivar name rather than separating them properly by phenotype. And well... You can probably imagine what happened. 😂 Two sisters. Same cultivar. Same room. Same photographer. A ridiculous number of photographs. And suddenly... the stacks started having a little family reunion of their own. 😂📸💜 So, first of all: Sorry for the confusion! But there's actually a very easy solution. 👉 If you want to see the other stacked photographs, please jump over to the **Purple CousKush Pheno A report**. All the additional stacks are already there. I deliberately didn't upload the same photographs again here because I didn't want to completely overload GrowDiaries with duplicated images. They're already available. They're just mixed between the two phenotype reports from this run. 😂💜🔬 From this point forward, though, I've learned my lesson. The next stacks are already being labeled individually: **Pheno A.** **Pheno B.** No more mysterious CousKush family photo archives. 😂📸 And with that confession out of the way... let's talk about this girl. Because honestly? She's looking AMAZING. 💜🌸❄️ ──────────────────────── 💜 THE SISTER STEPS INTO THE SPOTLIGHT Purple CousKush Pheno B is having a beautiful week. And much like her sister... she is really showing us what this cultivar can do. But if I'm completely honest? I might even like this girl a little more. 😂💜 There is something about her flower formation that really catches my eye. The way the buds are developing. The density. The structure. The frost. The overall appearance. Everything is coming together beautifully. And when you look at the photographs... you can see exactly why I wanted to give her her own proper spotlight. She's not simply sitting there flowering. She's building some beautiful flowers. 🌸❄️💜 ──────────────────────── 🔬 THE MACRO WORLD CONTINUES And after spending so much time looking at her sister's macro photographs... I couldn't wait to get closer to this girl too. Because once you enter that macro world... there is no going back. 😂🔬 From normal distance, she's beautiful. From close range... she becomes something else. The trichomes. The resin. The flower structure. The individual little details. All those tiny things that disappear when you're looking at the plant from across the room suddenly become the main event. And that's what I love about these photographs. You stop looking at the plant as a whole. You start looking at the flower itself. And then... WOW. 💜❄️🔬 ──────────────────────── ❄️ FROST EVERYWHERE This girl is seriously frosty. There is no other way to say it. 😂❄️ The flowers are absolutely covered. And the closer we get... the more obvious it becomes. The frost isn't just something you notice in the full-plant photographs. It's everywhere. Across the flowers. Around the sugar leaves. Packed into the little structures. Catching the light. And creating that beautiful crystalline appearance that makes you want to keep taking photographs. 📸❄️💜 This is exactly why I love macro photography. You think you've already seen the flower. Then you zoom in. And suddenly... you realize you haven't seen half of it. ──────────────────────── 🌸 AMAZING BUD FORMATION This is probably the thing I want to emphasize most this week. The bud formation. WOW. 💜🌸 She's building some seriously beautiful flowers. The structures are becoming more defined. The individual flowers are becoming more substantial. And there's a beautiful density developing throughout the plant. It's the kind of structure where you can look at one flower... then another... then another... and every time you find another detail. That's what makes photographing her so enjoyable. There's always another angle. Another flower. Another structure. Another little pocket of frost. Another reason to say: "Okay... one more photograph." 😂📸 And then somehow that becomes twenty more. ──────────────────────── 😂 THE CAMERA HAS A PROBLEM I think the camera might actually be the biggest problem in this room. 😂📸 Because every time I think: "Okay, enough photographs." I move the camera slightly. And then: "Oh..." Another flower. Another angle. Another macro. Another stack. And suddenly I'm still there an hour later. 😂 But honestly? I don't mind. This is the fun part. The plants are doing the growing. I'm doing the observing. And the camera is helping me preserve all these little details. It's a pretty good arrangement. ──────────────────────── 💜 PHENO A AND PHENO B — SAME FAMILY, DIFFERENT BEAUTY This is another reason I love documenting the two sisters separately. They're the same cultivar. But they're not identical. And that's exactly what we want to see. Same room. Same general environment. Same lighting ecosystem. Same overall nutritional approach. Same grower. Same 12/12 schedule. And yet... different expressions. Different structures. Different flower arrangements. Different personalities. And that's where phenotype exploration becomes really interesting. We're not trying to decide which one is "correct." We're watching what each individual plant chooses to express. And Purple CousKush Pheno B is giving us a beautiful expression. 💜🌸❄️ ──────────────────────── 📸 ABOUT THOSE MIXED-UP STACKS... One more time, because I don't want anyone wondering what happened. 😂 The previous stacking photographs were labeled simply as: **Purple CousKush Auto** rather than: **Purple CousKush Auto — Pheno A** or: **Purple CousKush Auto — Pheno B** And because both girls were being photographed and stacked around the same time... some of those files ended up mixed between the two reports. My mistake. 💜🙏 But rather than upload the same images twice and flood the platform with duplicates, I've kept them where they are. So if you want to explore the additional macro stacks... go check the **Pheno A report**. You'll find them there. And from now on... I've learned. 😂 Every stack gets its phenotype label. No more CousKush stack roulette. 😂📸💜 ──────────────────────── 🌿 SAME ROOM. SAME PHOTONS. DIFFERENT STORY. And once again, the 8×8 Adventure is doing exactly what we wanted it to do. Twelve plants. One room. One general environment. And completely different expressions. Purple CousKush Pheno B is receiving the same general lighting environment as her sister. The same artificial sun. The same room conditions. The same overall approach. And yet... look at her. She's creating her own version of the story. That's what makes this project so fascinating. The environment gives the plants the opportunity. The genetics decide how they express that opportunity. And this girl? She's expressing herself beautifully. 💜☀️🌸 ──────────────────────── 💡 THE ARTIFICIAL SUN KEEPS SHINING The upgraded Future of Grow Black Series lighting ecosystem remains part of the room. The two additional Black Series 600W fixtures continue giving us more lighting capability and flexibility across the canopy. We aren't simply throwing maximum power at the plants. The fixtures were adjusted to approximately 59% from the plug after the initial intensity proved higher than what we wanted. That gives us approximately: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with intensity naturally varying depending on plant height and position. And Purple CousKush Pheno B is clearly making good use of the photons she's receiving. Flowers. Density. Frost. Structure. Beautiful development. That's the fun part. Same photons. Different interpretation. 💡☀️💜 ──────────────────────── ⚗️ THE ROOM KEEPS MOVING The room continues progressing into the later stages of the run. The plants are established. The flowers are developed. The major structural work is behind us. And now... we watch. We observe. We maintain. We document. We make adjustments when they're actually needed. And otherwise? We let the plants do their thing. Purple CousKush Pheno B doesn't need me constantly interfering with her. She's doing beautifully. So I'm happy to let her continue. 🌱💜 ──────────────────────── ✂️ THE GROWER'S JOB IS GETTING QUIETER This is one of those stages where the grower becomes almost more of an observer than a worker. Earlier in the adventure, there was plenty to do. Structure. Training. Tucking. Adjustments. Canopy management. Decisions. Now? Much quieter. 😂 The plants have done the work. The flowers are there. The structures are established. And now the plants are showing us the result. That's a beautiful stage to reach. Because instead of constantly asking: "What should I do?" you start asking: "What is she showing me?" And Purple CousKush Pheno B is showing us some beautiful flowers. ──────────────────────── 🔬 GETTING CLOSER This girl really rewards getting closer. From across the room: Beautiful. From the plant level: Very beautiful. From the flower level: Oh... 😂💜 And from macro: "ARE YOU SERIOUS?" 😂❄️🔬 That's my favourite kind of plant photography. The kind where the plant keeps revealing another layer. You think you've seen her. Then you zoom in. And she gives you something else. More frost. More structure. More detail. More reasons to keep looking. ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FLOWERS ARE THE STORY NOW At this stage, I don't really need to invent a story for her. The flowers are writing it themselves. They're developing. They're becoming denser. They're becoming more detailed. They're carrying more visual character. And the trichomes are making sure the camera has plenty to work with. 😂📸❄️ This is where I really enjoy stepping back and allowing the plant to do the talking. No need to force anything. No need to make unnecessary changes. Just watch. And appreciate. ──────────────────────── 💜 I THINK THIS GIRL IS EVEN MORE BEAUTIFUL And here's the dangerous part. 😂 I looked at Pheno A. I thought: "Wow." Then I started looking at Pheno B. And now I'm thinking: "Wait..." 😂💜 This girl might actually be even more beautiful. The flower formation really catches my eye. There's something about the way her buds are developing that I absolutely love. The structure. The density. The frost. The overall balance. Everything together just works. And that's why I love having the two reports. Because I don't want to put them together and lose those little differences. I want to see them separately. I want to appreciate each phenotype for what she is. And Pheno B? She's giving us plenty to appreciate. 💜🌸❄️ ──────────────────────── 📸 THIS TIME, SHE GOT HER CAMERA TIME And after last week's missed opportunity... I'm glad we made up for it. 😂📸 She deserved the camera. She deserved the close-ups. She deserved the flowers being examined properly. And most importantly... she deserved her own spotlight. Because this isn't just about taking photographs for the sake of filling a diary. These photographs are part of the documentation. They're timestamps. They're visual evidence of how the plant is developing. And when you look back later... you can actually see the journey. That's what makes all these photographs worthwhile. ──────────────────────── 🌿 THE 8×8 ADVENTURE — WHY WE KEEP SEPARATING THEM For anyone joining this diary now... the 8×8 Adventure is about watching individual genetic expressions within the same general environment. We're not trying to make every plant identical. We're doing the opposite. We're giving them the same general stage... and watching how differently they perform. That's why each phenotype gets her own diary. Because even sisters deserve their own stories. 😂💜 Purple CousKush Pheno A has her story. Purple CousKush Pheno B has hers. And right now... both stories are looking damn good. ──────────────────────── 🔍 WHAT AM I WATCHING NOW? Honestly? The details. 😂 I'm watching the flowers. I'm watching the density. I'm watching the frost. I'm watching the overall development. And I'm enjoying the fact that this girl is still giving me things to discover. I'm not trying to force an ending. I'm not trying to put a precise timeline on her. I'm simply watching. And right now... what I'm seeing is beautiful. 💜🌸❄️ ──────────────────────── ✨ FINAL THOUGHTS — THIS GIRL DESERVES HER SPOTLIGHT Week 13. Purple CousKush Auto. Pheno B. And after last week's little photography mix-up... I'm very happy we gave this girl her proper moment. 😂💜📸 First of all: Sorry again for the mixed-up stacking photographs. The additional stacks are already available in the **Pheno A report**, and we didn't want to upload the same images twice and overload GrowDiaries with duplicates. So if you want to see the rest of those macro stacks... go visit her sister's report. They're there. From this point forward, though... the stacks are being properly labeled by phenotype. Lesson learned. 😂📸 And now... back to this beautiful girl. Because honestly? She's amazing. The bud formation is beautiful. The flowers are becoming dense. The frost is ridiculous. The trichome coverage is exactly the kind of thing that makes me love the macro world. And when you look closely... WOW. 💜❄️🔬 I genuinely think she's looking even more beautiful than her sister right now. And that's the beauty of this adventure. Two sisters. Same cultivar. Same room. Same environment. And yet... two different expressions. Both beautiful. Both fascinating. Both worth documenting. And this week... the spotlight belongs to Pheno B. So let's let her shine. Let's appreciate those flowers. Let's appreciate the frost. Let's appreciate the density. Let's appreciate the macro world. And let's see where this beautiful girl takes us next. 💜🌸❄️🔬✨ ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU Another week. Another chapter. And another reminder of why I absolutely love this 8×8 Adventure. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual phenotype journeys and share them with the community. 💚🌱 Thank you to Zamnesia for the Purple CousKush genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover these two beautiful expressions. 💜🌸 Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of the adventure. 🌱 A huge thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting and especially for supplying the additional fixtures that have expanded the lighting capability of the room. 💡🙏 Thank you to LumiFlora for helping illuminate the deeper areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable behind the scenes. And of course... thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person who takes the time to follow these girls week after week. It genuinely means a lot. And Purple CousKush Pheno B? You've officially had your proper spotlight. 😂💜👑 The photographs are here. The flowers are beautiful. The macro world is ridiculous. And I'm very happy we stopped long enough to appreciate you properly. So let's keep watching. Let's keep documenting. Let's keep getting closer. Let's let the plants tell us when they're ready. And let's enjoy these final chapters for what they are. The big work is behind us. Now the flowers are doing the talking. And this girl? She's speaking pretty damn beautifully. 💜🌸❄️🔬 Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! 🌱💚💜✨ See you next week in the 8×8 jungle... where the sisters keep getting closer, the flowers keep getting denser, the macro lens keeps getting closer, the photographer keeps learning to label his damn stacks properly... 😂📸 and Purple CousKush Pheno B? She's standing there looking absolutely beautiful. So let's give her the spotlight. Let her shine. And let's keep watching this beautiful story unfold. 💜👑🌸❄️

Wow she doubled her height this week. Grew 9cm! Got loads bushier too. She was repotted too into her 10 litre fabric pot forever home.

Hi everybody week 1 into vegetation stage started feeding expert nutrients the whole line for the grow stage I use 0.3 ml to 1L of everything witch gives me a nice 320 PPM I have found perfect for their first feed. Can't wait how to see she goes and thank you for looking at the diary there will be updates every week and always remember it's 420 somewhere 👍🌱

Day #72 - Decided to release the beast! made the hooks loose in order to prevent any stunt. plant has already acquired the desired shape. Day #75 - Did some LsT

So week 7 down and this is the longest they’ve stayed looking this healthy. Finally avoiding under / over feeding them once they’ve used up all the nutes in the soil around week 5/6. This last week just a top dress with a locally sourced 2/8/4 organic amendment. And not overwatering of course, I’m giving them 3/4L every 4/5 days when the pots are properly light. Seems to have done the trick so far. Pretty stress free. Only issue is SP2. Not sure if it’s just a weird plant or I messed it up somehow. (I’m going with plant error as the others are fine). Anyway it just didn’t stretch, at all. Basically no side branches and all it’s pistils are shrivelled up already, looks about a week away from harvest with these puny little buds. Weird little thing. Only keeping it going for shits & giggles as there’s still space for it in the grow. This next week more of the same. Have put swapped the 600w bulb in for the 400w bulb as I try and gradually increase the light. Still in plenty of weed from last grows. Still no money spent on wankstain kids selling me crappy weed. Bank balance transformed. Big smiles in this household. Thanks for reading, have a great week 😊

The Blackberry auto by Fastbuds has been a thrilling plant to grow. Starting off as a tri-cotyledon seedling, she's been a rush from the start. When she came out mutated I didn't even know if I wanted to keep her; I asked the growdiaries.com community for help. After speaking with a few experts I decided to keep it and see what would happen.. Since then she has developed thick healthy stocks stalks and dark leaves with ripe purple flowers bursting out between them add every node. Using a home mix super soil with Promis Organic as the base, I decided to feed compost extracts laced with Golden Tree & CalMag which helped kick this girl into over drive and push out these dense sticky buds. I'm expecting around 3 ounces from her and it's day 73 since she popped out of the soil. She has a sweet aroma and is completely covered in trichomes. Drying/ Curing process: - she will be hung upside down by the main stock until she is dry (8-12 days) - My humidity will be set to 55 - 60 % and my temps will range from 65-70 degrees F - Will store in Glas Mason jars with 2-way Boveda humidty packs. These are a lifesaver for new growers. They will keep the humidity in the jar at 62%. - after 2 weeks I'll throw down a mad sesh Thanks to everyone who offered me tips and help when I needed it. Thanks Fastbuds for all you do for the community, including growdiaries.com

Man this thing is going from strength to strength. Just stacking hard. Smells amazing, looks amazing, grows amazing. Hard to fault this grow, the training technique this round worked awesome. So much frost and the deep red 😍😍😍 Pretty chuffed with this one. Did some defol as she only has a few days left. Nugs are rock hard so can’t wait to see the weight.. plain water and shooting powder to help stack
