Hi everyone 😁 Welcome back on another week update. So far everything going as well as can be. Both 🍌💜👊 girls developing very well. This week I have reduced root juice by half and by the end of this week may introduce fish mix and biogrow on very small dose but all will depend how girls will be developing in coming days. Thank you all for all the likes comments, follows and pm's. Love you all 😁💚 I will keep updating this week progress every few days. Wishing you all a wonderful week ✨🍀✨ Peace and love brothers and sisters ✌️💜 23/10 day 15 Smooth development on both baby girls. Watered with approx. 300-400ml each pot on the entire surface. 26/10 day 18 Girls are growing very nicely. Today another watering approx. 200ml each of 🍌💜👊 girl. Still spraying water around the surface everyday. 29/10 day 21 It's been a perfect week. No issues at all. Very steady growth. Next week will introduce to my 🍌💜👊 girls few new dishes and possibly will start with LST. Thank you all for such a great support 😊✌️💚 Wishing everyone a wonderful upcoming week✨🍀✨ Peace and love brothers and sisters ✌️💚

Week 25 is rolling along on the deck, and the Durban Poison photoperiod crew is putting on an absolute masterclass in outdoor structure and flower development. Sitting comfortably in their large fabric bags on furniture dollies, these sativa powerhouses have built an incredible network of robust colas that are packing on serious weight and density as the late-season bloom cycle intensifies. Managing this stage successfully comes down to dialing in the right balance of organic amendments, micronutrients, and water chemistry to keep the root zone happy without causing nutrient burn or pH lockouts. Nutrient Management & Feeding Routine * Seabird Guano (0-11-0): Playing a starring role in the heavy bloom phase, the high-phosphorus seabird guano provides the essential P needed to drive massive flower set and resin production. Following top-dressing routines like the recent application on August 2nd, this amendment fuels the explosive bud development visible across the upper canopy. * Kelp Meal: Espoma Organic Kelp Meal works in tandem with the soil to supply essential natural trace elements, potassium, and growth hormones that boost plant stress resilience against shifting late-season outdoor temperatures and wind. * Cal-Mag: Essential for preventing secondary nutrient deficiencies, calcium and magnesium keep the cell walls strong and support the heavy metabolic demands of these sprawling sativa colas. * pH Down & Water Balance: Balancing out the hard tap water requires careful monitoring. While source water sits around a 7.5, keeping a close eye on the General Hydroponics pH Down ensures the root zone stays optimized for maximum nutrient uptake without inducing sudden pH crashes. The canopy is looking exceptionally vibrant, vigorous, and primed for a heavy, aromatic finish as harvest window approaches. The aroma on the deck is now really intensifying. I'm going to enjoy watching the colas form over the next month, month and a 1/2.

Wow the terps on this plant are insane super tropical fruit sweet and funky. She's doing well so far, probably flush soon as only another week or so left before she gets chopped. Only about 5% amber atm. This is definitely a smoke I'm super excited to try. Good luck everyone and happy growing 🌴

LA SEMANA QUE VIENE LES COLOCO LA MALLA Y LAS MANDAMOS A FLORAR

9/1 - Start of week four and all four of my Purple Microdots are female! That means I got 100% feminine seeds from this round and they are looking strong. One of the ladies is split at the main cola as if she had been topped...even though she hasn't. Can't wait to see how she turns out. Watered all today with RO water and molasses. 9/4 - Just a light water and some LST today. Still no nutrients and they are looking fabulous. Moving them just about a quarter of the way around the pot. They are really starting to become bushy and branch out.. They are all very green and looking great. 9/6 - First signs of flower! Each of the four have little pistils coming in and they look beautiful. I come in each day and water and do a little LST on all the ladies and that's about it. Will feed at the end of the week.

We start the first week before sprouted! We are excited to look the grow on RDWC!!

Smooth sa

Second week of flowering in the bag, and they’re all looking really healthy, even healthier than when I first threw them in the flower steady as she goes

The queen of cultivation welcomes you to a new week in her fantastic gardens! The small feminized grow under a 18/6 and then be rotted and transferred happy and abundant harvest to all

Welcome back.Ladies and gentlemen, today is day 26 of flower and as you can see, she's starting to stack nicely.. Her internadal spacing is awesome and she's starting to smell nice.. Some trichome production, but nothing to brag about, but it's so early on... I have very high hopes for this girl as she has been thriving from the beginning.. Zamnesia Seeds it is amazing. Thank you, Patricia for the opportunity to showcase your genetics.. Hope everyone is doing well and until next week.God bless and happy growing ✌️

One plant has got purple top buds. Very strong smell. I’m doing the flushing for the excess nutrients.

💜 Purple CousKush Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 8 (Flower Week 5) 🌱 She Bent. She Bounced Back. And She Kept Building. There are weeks in a grow where everything goes exactly according to plan. And then there are weeks where life happens. The room is busy. The outside world keeps moving. There are a thousand things happening at the same time... And occasionally, one of the plants reminds you that even the best plans still require us to pay attention. This week, Purple CousKush Pheno A taught me that lesson. I underwatered her. Nothing catastrophic. Nothing that caused lasting damage. But enough that when I looked at her, the leaves had completely dropped. She was thirsty. Very thirsty. And this is actually an important distinction for anyone following the diary: A controlled dry-back is not the same thing as allowing a flowering plant to become so dry that she starts wilting. The first can be part of an irrigation strategy. The second is simply me missing the watering window. 😂 So we corrected it. She received her water. We gave her time to recover. And by the following day... She was back. And not only was she back... She was ready for her next chapter. 💧 The Underwatering Lesson When a plant becomes this thirsty, the first thing I look for isn't panic. I look at the plant. Leaves dropping dramatically from a lack of available water is usually a very different visual story from nutrient toxicity, heat stress or a root-zone problem. In this case, the explanation was simple. She needed water. After watering, she recovered beautifully. That quick recovery was reassuring and also a good reminder that plants can be remarkably resilient. Still, during this stage of flowering, it's something I want to avoid repeating. I personally prefer being slightly more conservative with irrigation rather than keeping the root zone constantly saturated. But there's a difference between allowing a healthy dry-back and pushing the plant far enough that she has to start waving a little white flag. This week, Purple CousKush definitely waved it. Message received. 😂 I will do my best not to make her wave it again. ✂️ From Recovery Straight Into Defoliation Perhaps the most impressive part was what happened next. Once she had recovered and returned to normal posture, I gave her another day and then performed the flowering defoliation. This was part of the broader room strategy we've been following. The objective wasn't to strip her. It wasn't because she suddenly looked unhealthy. And it wasn't because every leaf needed to disappear. The goal was simply to clean up the canopy and remove foliage that was no longer contributing much to the plant's structure. Some of the interior and lower areas had become crowded, and selectively removing those leaves created more open space between the flowering sites. More room for air. More room for light. More room for the plant to breathe. And with the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting now part of the system, we're also able to observe which lower flowering sites are actually worth keeping. The plant herself will tell us. 🌿 She Took It Like Nothing Happened This is probably my favourite part of the entire week. After being underwatered... She recovered. After being defoliated... She didn't miss a beat. She's standing there looking beautiful, healthy and completely ready to continue flowering. No prolonged setback. No dramatic reaction. No hesitation. Just... Back to work. And honestly, that's exactly what I love about this phenotype. She has been one of the more energetic plants in this room from the beginning. She stretched. She branched. She built an impressive framework. She started stacking flowers. And now she's moving deeper into the part of flowering where that structure needs to start paying for itself. 💜 Week 5 Flower – The Structure Is Paying Off At approximately 125 cm, Purple CousKush Pheno A has become one of the taller and more distinctive plants in this room. Her Christmas-tree-like architecture has become even more obvious. A strong central leader rises through the canopy while numerous side branches form their own flowering towers around her. And now, after defoliation, that architecture is even easier to see. The plant has space. The branches are separated. The flowering sites have room around them. And the entire structure feels much more open. This is exactly what I want at this stage. We're no longer trying to build the plant. We're trying to help the plant finish what she already built. 🌸 Flowers Are Taking Over The flowers continue developing along virtually every major branch. Those bright pistils that were appearing last week are now becoming part of increasingly defined flowering clusters. The buds are beginning to gain substance. The calyxes are stacking. And the first layer of frost that appeared earlier is becoming increasingly visible. This is the beautiful transition where the plant starts looking less like a collection of flowering sites and more like an actual flowering plant. She's not finished. Not even close. But the direction is very clear. She's building. And she's building everywhere. 💡 Photons, Air & Open Space This is another reason I decided to clean her up. Defoliation isn't about magically creating more light. The photons are already there. What we're trying to do is improve how effectively that light can travel through the canopy. Every unnecessary leaf sitting directly above another flowering site can intercept some of that light. Every dense pocket of foliage can also interfere with airflow. By selectively removing some of those leaves, we create pathways. Light can travel deeper. Air can move more freely. Humidity has fewer opportunities to become trapped between dense layers of foliage. And the under-canopy lighting can interact with the lower structure more effectively. It's a little like opening windows in a house. We're not creating more air. We're simply giving the air better places to go. 🌱 Same Genetics. Different Story. One of the most rewarding things about this 8×8 Adventure continues to be the diversity happening inside one room. Twelve different genetic expressions. Same general environment. Same cultivation philosophy. Same room. Yet every plant writes her own story. Purple CousKush Pheno A has always been one of the plants that seems to have somewhere to go. She's taller. She's more energetic. She keeps producing structure. And even after a little reminder from me this week that she needed a drink... she's right back there doing her thing. That's genetics. We can guide. We can train. We can manage the environment. We can manage irrigation. But ultimately, the plant decides what she's going to be. 💧 Feeding & Root Zone The flowering feeding program continues with the Plagron lineup: Terra Bloom — 2.2 ml/L Pure Zym — 1 ml/L Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L Power Buds — 1 ml/L Green Sensation — 1 ml/L pH Plus / Lemon Kick — as required for pH adjustment The target remains around: pH: 5.8 EC: approximately 1.95 mS/cm After this week's watering mistake, I'm particularly paying attention to irrigation timing. Not because the plant is struggling. Quite the opposite. Because she's growing beautifully, and I don't want a preventable watering mistake interrupting that momentum again. A healthy dry-back is part of irrigation management. A wilted plant is my reminder to look at the clock. 😂 🌡️ Environment The room continues providing a stable environment for the entire 8×8 Adventure: Light schedule: 12/12 PPFD: approximately 850–1,000 across the canopy Day temperature: 29°C Night temperature: 25°C Relative humidity: 60% Solution temperature: 21°C Root-zone temperature: 21°C CO₂: approximately 639 ppm The stability of this environment is what allows a mistake like underwatering to remain just that: a mistake. Not a disaster. The plant was healthy before it happened. The environment remained stable. The root zone was given water. And she recovered quickly. That's one of the reasons I put so much importance on the entire ecosystem rather than chasing one individual number. 🔮 Looking Ahead Now that the defoliation is complete and she's recovered, I'm expecting Purple CousKush to put her energy where we want it most. Into the flowers. The vertical stretch should continue slowing down. Flower clusters should continue stacking along those long branches. The calyxes should begin swelling more noticeably. And resin production should become increasingly obvious as she moves deeper into bloom. I'm particularly interested in watching how the cleaned canopy performs over the next couple of weeks. More airflow. Better light movement. Less unnecessary foliage. And hopefully... no more thirsty ladies waving their leaves at me. 😂 💭 Final Thoughts – A Little Reminder From The Plant This week wasn't perfect. And I'm actually glad it wasn't. Because growing isn't about pretending everything goes perfectly every day. It's about learning to read the plants. Purple CousKush told me she was thirsty. I listened. She recovered. Then she let me clean her up. And now she's standing there looking absolutely beautiful, waiting for the next chapter. I still genuinely prefer a slightly cautious approach to watering rather than constantly keeping the root zone saturated. But there's a lesson here: Dry-back can be intentional. Wilting is communication. And this girl communicated very clearly. 😂 I'll do my best not to make her repeat herself. For now, she's healthy. She's recovering beautifully. She's been defoliated. She's producing flowers. She's getting frosty. And she's continuing to prove why she earned her place in this 8×8 Adventure. Sometimes the plant teaches us through perfect growth. Sometimes she teaches us by dropping every leaf in the room and saying: "Hey, Doctor... I need a drink." 😂💜 A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for these fantastic Purple CousKush genetics, Plagron for supporting the nutrition throughout this journey, Future of Grow for the incredible Black Series lighting, Lumiflora for bringing additional light beneath the canopy, TrolMaster for keeping the environment under control, and of course everyone following this crazy 8×8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries. Every phenotype has a story. Every week adds another chapter. And Purple CousKush Pheno A? She's still writing hers. She bent. She bounced back. She got cleaned up. And now she's shining again. 💜🌱 Until next week... Growers Love and happy growing! 💚
