💜 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno B Week 6 | Growing at Her Own Rhythm Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of the greatest lessons this project continues teaching me is that plants don't read calendars. They don't know what week we're calling it. They don't compare themselves to the plant growing beside them. They simply follow the instructions written inside their own genetics. Purple Haze Pheno B has become the perfect example of that philosophy. While several of her sisters are rapidly building flowers, this beautiful lady has chosen a much more relaxed pace. She's not behind. She's simply growing at her own rhythm. And she's doing it beautifully. 🌱 The Beauty of the 12/12 Adventure For everyone joining this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed technique. Every seed was placed directly under a 12-hour light and 12-hour dark cycle from germination, allowing each phenotype to express its natural growth pattern without a traditional vegetative period. Every plant receives exactly the same opportunity. The same lighting. The same nutrition. The same environment. The same temperatures. The same humidity. The same daily attention. The only thing changing... ...is the genetics. And once again, genetics are telling a fascinating story. 🌿 Strength Before Speed Standing at approximately 85 cm, Purple Haze Pheno B has developed into a wonderfully vigorous plant. Her structure is strong. Her branches are sturdy. Her canopy remains full of healthy foliage. Her colour is exactly what every grower hopes to see. Deep green. Lush. Full of life. What makes this phenotype unique isn't what she's doing... It's what she's not doing. Unlike some of the other ladies, she hasn't rushed into explosive flower production. Instead, she continues investing energy into maintaining an incredibly healthy framework that will eventually support whatever comes next. Sometimes nature prefers to build the foundation before decorating the house. 🌸 Flowering... One Step at a Time If I compare this week's photographs with last week's, the difference isn't dramatic. And that's perfectly okay. Fresh pistils continue appearing across the plant. The growing tips are slowly beginning to change shape. Flower sites are forming. But she's progressing at a noticeably gentler pace than many of the other phenotypes in the room. Rather than worrying about that, I find it fascinating. This is exactly why I wanted to document every phenotype separately. Had these plants been growing individually, I might never have appreciated just how differently sisters can develop under identical conditions. Purple Haze Pheno B is reminding me that flowering isn't a race. Every genetic line follows its own timeline. 🍃 A Plant That Simply Looks Happy Sometimes the easiest plants to grow are the ones that ask for very little. This week there were no warning signs. No deficiencies. No excesses. No signs of stress. Just healthy leaves reaching toward the light and steady, consistent development. Leaf tucking has once again been the primary training method, gently opening the canopy without removing valuable fan leaves. This allows better airflow and improved light penetration while preserving the plant's natural ability to produce energy. She's rewarding that gentle approach with vigorous, healthy growth. 💧 Feeding With Patience Just because flowering is progressing slowly doesn't mean the plant needs to be forced. The feeding program continues supporting the transition naturally while allowing the genetics to dictate the pace. Current nutrition includes: • Terra Bloom • Power Buds • Green Sensation • Sugar Royal • Pure Zym • Careful pH adjustment for optimal nutrient uptake Sometimes the best thing a grower can do is resist the temptation to chase faster growth. Healthy plants know what they're doing. Our job is simply to support them. 🌡️ Consistency Builds Confidence Like every phenotype in this project, Purple Haze Pheno B continues benefiting from a carefully controlled environment. Current grow room conditions include: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • Solution temperature: 24°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 636 ppm Providing the same stable environment week after week removes unnecessary variables, allowing every phenotype to reveal its own unique character. And this lady certainly has plenty of character. 📷 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs tell a quieter story, but an equally beautiful one. The studio portraits showcase a wonderfully balanced plant with a dense canopy of healthy foliage and exceptional overall vigour. The close-up images reveal fresh white pistils slowly emerging from each growing tip, subtle reminders that flowering is progressing, even if it's happening at a more measured pace. Several photographs highlight the beautifully formed leaves and sturdy branching that have become defining characteristics of this phenotype. Sometimes the biggest changes aren't dramatic. Sometimes they're simply the quiet signs of a healthy plant confidently following its own path. 🔮 Looking Ahead I'm genuinely curious to see what the next few weeks bring. Will she suddenly accelerate and begin stacking flowers rapidly? Or will she continue this calm, methodical approach all the way through bloom? At this stage, either outcome would be exciting. One thing already feels certain. This phenotype refuses to be rushed. She's growing exactly when she's ready. And if experience has taught me anything... It's that patient plants often surprise you later. I'll happily let her write the next chapter in her own time. 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Projects like this constantly remind me that growing isn't about trying to make every plant behave the same way. It's about understanding that every phenotype has its own personality, its own rhythm, and its own way of expressing the genetics it carries. Purple Haze Pheno B may be taking the scenic route into flowering... But she's making every step look effortless. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a place where growers from around the world can share knowledge, document their journeys, and inspire one another. 🌱 Zamnesia for providing the incredible genetics that make this phenotype hunt possible. 💜 Plagron for supplying the nutrition supporting these plants from seed to harvest. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light that powers every day of this adventure. 🌿 TrolMaster for maintaining the stable environment that allows each phenotype to express its true potential. And finally, thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, asking questions, and sharing this incredible journey with me. Every week reinforces the same lesson: Great plants don't all grow at the same speed. They simply grow when they're ready. Growers Love... and Purple Haze Pheno B is proving that patience is sometimes the most beautiful phenotype of all. 💜🌿

FERMAKOR BARREL MIX – BASE IN USE (Testing on the Fantasy Feast girl we pulled out of another diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/274722-grow-journal-by-yan402 ) (FERMAKOR BASE SYSTEM KOH VERSION diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/278391-grow-journal-by-yan402) (Urea & Micros on the way — first week running without them) 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 30 L Barrel – Current Working Mix 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 Step 1 – Calcium Nitrate (Part A) 7 L warm water (~35–40 °C) → added 45 g Calcinit, stirred until fully clear. That’s the calcium + nitrogen backbone for the feed. Step 2 – FERMAKOR PK Base (Part B) 15 L water in the main barrel → added 30 ml FERMAKOR PK Concentrate, mixed well. This forms the main P + K part of the formula. Step 3 – Combine Solutions Slowly poured the Calcinit mix into the barrel while stirring — no reaction, still crystal clear. That confirms the mix is stable and precipitation-free. 🌿 Step 4 – FPJ / FFJ Batch Added 30 ml homemade FPJ (fish + veg batch) ≈ 1 ml/L. Color shifted to a light-amber tone — looks alive and active. 🍋 Step 5 – Citric Acid Balance Added 1 tsp citric acid after everything was blended to fine-tune pH and help chelate micros later on. 📦 Step 6 – Top Up & Check Filled to the 30 L mark with plain water → pH tested with drops, showing yellow-green — roughly 5.8 – 6.0 range. Nice clean look, stable smell, no residue. 💧 Current Base Ingredients (Active Mix) Warm Water ≈ 22 L total Calcinit 45 g → N + Ca foundation FERMAKOR PK Base 30 ml → P + K support Citric Acid 1 tsp → Chelation + pH balance FPJ / Fish Emulsion 30 ml → Organic enzyme booster Result: clean amber mix, mild and balanced.

Still haven't harvested the smaller one. I'll harvest it tomorrow and freeze it straight away. It's going to be tough to freeze those beautiful buds instead of smoking them, but premium hash requires premium buds! :-D I'll be forced to harvest the big one on Thursday because I'm heading away for 2 weeks on Friday... :-/

This is the last week before harvest.

This plant has been a pure pleasure to grow. I took a few bud off this week as I was worried about bud bandits taking her. They are out in force in my neck of the woods. She has really put on some interesting colouring. She smells so damn GOOD!! Dinafem nails dit with these genetics!! Full chop is imminent!! 😎🍿

Planning on the harvest! Trichomes Mostly milky seeing a little amber maybe around 5% Pictures taken with iPhone SE.. looking into some new cameras like the Nikon COOLPIX p1000 or Sony A6700

Heu guys ! Plants start to pre flower, everything is going good, few nutriments fails but overall it's pretty much ok Pretty sad about the Zake and the Shimo in the front that pretty much had no stretch 😓 Cant complain since im working from seeds ! See ya next week ✌️

FROHES NEUES 🎉🎊🎈🎆 8.te Blütewoche und die critical werden langsam reif. Denke noch 5 bis 7 tage dann wird critical geerntet. Acapulco und zkittlez brauchen noch etwas länger, denke bis ende woche 9 mindestens. Gieße nur mit Leitungswasser das ich mit osmosewasser mische bis auf 0.3 bis 0.4 ec. Hatte die Aca. umd Zk vor ein paar tagen gespült mit wasser. Beim nächsten wässern noch mal spülen bis ec 1.2 erreicht ist. Und dann nur noch wasser wie oben beschrieben. War bisher kein guter grow aber dafür trotzdem noch ein paar schöne buds produziert 😅✌️

Week 3 By week three, the plant begins to show more structure. Internodal spacing is moderate, resulting in a balanced but slightly open form. Leaf size increases, and the stem thickens gradually. The plant appears healthy overall, though a mild lack of uniformity remains visible in the canopy. Growth feels steady but not particularly energetic.

Cresce cresce sta bella piantina anche lei la farò crescere fuori in balcone, poi appena tirerò via le auto dal box, le metterò a fiorire a12/12 indoor. ....... spero venga Buona la mia terapia 💪💚💛

📆 Semana 10 La floración continúa avanzando y los cogollos siguen ganando volumen, densidad y una cantidad de resina cada vez más destacada. Las flores presentan una estructura compacta y pesada, mientras los pistilos continúan oscureciéndose y retrayéndose progresivamente a medida que avanza la maduración. La planta mantiene un aspecto muy saludable y continúa desarrollando y engordando las flores. La producción de resina es especialmente visible, cubriendo tanto los cogollos como las hojas cercanas, mientras se acerca poco a poco a la fase final de floración. ⚡ EC: 1.6–1.7 💧 pH: 6.2–6.4 🌡️ Agua: 19–21°C 🌫️ Humedad: 40–45% 💡 Luz: PPFD 950–1050 🔥 Nota: Entramos en una fase cada vez más avanzada de maduración, con cogollos muy resinosos y una estructura que continúa compactándose. Seguimos manteniendo unas condiciones estables y vigilando la evolución de las flores para acompañar correctamente las últimas semanas del ciclo. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Blue Sunset Sherbert – Week 5 of Flowering The Blue Sunset Sherbert ladies are thriving! 🌿✨ Now at 4 weeks of flowering, they are developing beautifully. I noticed a slight nutrient deficiency in one of the plants, so I added a bit of Greenhouse Feeding Booster to balance things out. It seems to have worked well, and everything looks back on track. From now on, I’ll cut back on chemical boosters and switch to a more natural approach. Starting tomorrow, I'll be using my homemade calcium booster made from eggshells and vinegar to keep everything in balance. 🌱🔬 Exciting times ahead—stay tuned and don’t forget to follow for more updates! 😎 --- Blue Sunset Sherbert – Blüte Woche 5 Die Blue Sunset Sherbert-Ladies machen sich prächtig! 🌿✨ Jetzt, nach 4 Wochen Blüte, entwickeln sie sich wunderschön. Ich habe einen leichten Nährstoffmangel bei einer Pflanze bemerkt, also gab es ein wenig Greenhouse Feeding Booster, um das auszugleichen. Das scheint gut funktioniert zu haben, alles sieht wieder top aus. Ab jetzt werde ich die chemischen Booster zurückfahren und auf eine natürlichere Methode setzen. Ab morgen kommt mein selbstgemachter Calcium-Booster aus Eierschalen und Essig zum Einsatz, um das Ganze weiter zu stabilisieren. 🌱🔬 Spannende Zeiten stehen bevor—bleibt dran und vergesst nicht zu folgen für mehr Updates! 😎

Ya esta esta Zkittlez produciendo resina! Me esta gustado mucho como va avanzando, espero que se pongan grandes esas flores. Empezare a aplicrle Silick Rock de plagron a ver como va! Seguro que genial conociendo la calidad de sus productos.

Fastbuds is the best Autoflower seed company. I’d try any other brands if someone would let me test one. As of now, no reason to switch a great thing... bravo fastbuds 🇺🇸 USA USA

June 21st : Figured I started off last week with a video update So i'd do the same this week. Buds are really fattening up. Making my mouth water when I stare at them. Smell is very strong when the exhaust is off and the tent open. Getting Hot around here lately 106 outside today. Trying my best to keep them cool but it seems like a losing battle. Good thing I have that co2 tank. 🙌 June 22nd : Decided to try out my Digital Microscope tonight see what I could see. WOW am I going to have fun doing Macro Shot's! This is gonna be so much fun! Nothing else done with the plants except some admiration! June 23rd : Didn't have time to get to pictures darn real life. June 24th : Watered tonight as they were showing signs of drooping from under-watering. I expected as much due to the recent 106-111F. Temps around my area lately. Hard to keep them all cool but trying my best. Everything's looking good as far as I can tell. 👌 June 25th : Tried my hand at more closeups boy was it a failure. Gotta turn off those damn fans next time *lol* 3 out of like 40 clicks were "ok". Oh well.. Another day.. June 26th : Had the breaker for the room my tent was in keep tripping after adding the t5 lights to everything that's already on the same circuit.. had to move the ac to another circuit. June 27th : Ended up bumping the timer switch on the lights to always on and ended up giving the girls 18 hours of light. 😭 Praying nothing goes hermie.. Didn't have time for pics the last two nights as I've had previous obligations.

Hey now, I hope everyone is having a great weekend. The ladies had another great week, I got the Durban Nights, Red Hot Cookies, and Sundae Driverr's second toppings completed on day 26, and I got the second toppings done on the Green Crack and Bubble Runtz on day 27. Right now I have 4 mains on each plant, and I will top each one this week, probably in the next 3-4 days which will leave with me 8 mains. So the mainlines will be completed during week 5, and I plan to flip to flower around week 7. I am still seeing a couple holes on the leaves of the Sundae Driver, but I have treated her twice with neem oil and I don't see any new holes since the last application and I can't see any bugs even with magnification. I am still not sure if it was a bug issue or just a genetic thing. Either way I am not too concerned at this point because they all seem to be very healthy. I am still feeding GH nutrients, silica, cal mag, and maxi grow. I will transition to flower nutrients approximately one week after flipping to flower. I have found that it is important to continue feeding plenty of Nitrogen through the stretch. The only way I would transition sooner is if I was running out of vertical space. Still very pleased with the Spectrum X from Medic Grow. I am running her at 69% and the plants seem very happy and healthy. The heat and humidity are finally letting up in my region so it is nice to be able to open some windows and drop the temp outside the grow tent. I hope everyone has a great weekend, Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! 💪 Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

👉The final dry weight, which was 369g (13oz) is just buds, no trim or larf. Just Good big buds. Great plant overall. Had a phosphorus issue that lingered, it foxtailed at the end and in the last day hermie bitz appeared on almost every branch end cola. Sturdy branches, lots of food factories. Wonderful aroma that wasn't as stanky as most. Spend 4 hours trimming. Started at the bottom and worked my way up. I put the end cola of each branch on its own label clothes pin and hung on a rack. Each cola was weighed wet and cataloged. after 24 hrs I started putting each cola in a paper bag and the net buds in a larger bag. It took 5 days to reduce the dry weight to under 30%. When they hit this mark they went into the jars which were labeled according to their documented location. I figured the weigh reduction percentage by comparing weighs from the initial wet trimmed weight. In each jar I also added a hygrometer. Surprisingly the RH of almost ever jar was under 58%. None of the jars required any burping to remove excess humidity. At that point I added moisture 62% moisture packs and put the jars in the closet. I sampled bud J till this writing. It didn't start getting tasty till the 4 week mark.
