Day 52 Bottom leafs on th 5 gallon pot are turning completely yellow/brown marks. I understand the plant is sucking up lot of N and that's probably why, however it just doesn't look no where near ready because As you can see from the pics, the 5 gallon pot the Colas are very thin and airy compared to my short and fat filled in Colas in the 3 gallon. Slightly worrying when you compare the 2 ??? Day 53 Upped my nutrients as strongly believe I have been under feeding after some advice. Added overdrive instead of big bud. Run off is reading a little low at 5.6 so will feed the next few watering ph'd at 7. Day 55 Fed 3 liters to my 5 gallon pot. Run of is bang on 6.5ph happy days. Upped my nutrients to 100% recommended dose

Only 2 week left on this beauty smells gorgeous and as usual can not wait hasn't let me down all the way through she responds to everything that I done to her great genetics from original sensible seeds couldn't ask for more thanks and come back next week hopefully start seeing some colour peace growmies 💪👍💯

* ***************** Week 1 of Growth From Seed, April 11 to 17, 2020 - Days 1 to 7 from germination ********************** * Okay, we are off running now. Through germination and was delighted to experience 100% success rate👍 Excited to run this strain from Mephisto. It is supposed to be a couple of their strongest and fruitiest crossed. My Skywalker was a good experience and I could have ran her again but I wanted to try another strain from this breeder and see if there are some similarities......this sounded fun👍😋 Just popped one of these girls and will probably miss some timing but that is how the game works.......learn from this one with hopes of dialing in the siblings😀👍 Greater focus on VPD this run. Already pushing the humidity higher than I ever have with having controller set at 72% with temperature at 79 degrees. I have been reviewing the numbers and I have normally been close but it looks like I have to raise everything by about 10% and for a few weeks long😬😬😬😬😬😬 Trust the science and lets learn some more from this grow!!! *****Daily Detail: Apr 11, Day 1: - VPD - 1.2 - 500ml first watering given with nutrients as listed. (minus Velokelp) - pH water to 5.6 - Girl is up and looking like she is ready to go. Apr 12, Day 2: - VPD - 1.0 - 500ml feeding with VeloKelp @ 2ml/L, Piranha & Voodoo @ 1ml/L. pH to 5.6 - lowered light intensity a bit more. - She is getting taller now. Seems to be speeding up. Still the slowest of the group. - She seems most affected by too much light. Apr 13, Day 3 - VPD - 1.2 - 500ml water with 0.5ml/L each of Piranha & Voodoo, Dual Fuel. - 300ppm with 5.4pH. Apr 14, Day 4 - VPD - 1.1 - 500ml water with Virtathrive and Piranha & Voodoo Juice @ 1ml/L, VeloKelp @ 2ml/L, and SensiCal @ 0.5ml/L. - 210ppm with 5.5pH. - She is doing well. Starting to see the first set of leaves growing a little odd. Both offset to one side of the pot. Good progress though little early to worry about some things. Apr 15, Day 5 - VPD 1.0 - 250ml water with VeloKelp @ 1ml/L. - 95ppm with 5.4pH. - She was a little slow and little dark but she seems to be coming along. Once she strengthens up the bend should come out of her stem👌🤞 Apr 16, Day 6 - VPD 1.0 - 500ml water with Piranha & Voodoo @ 1ml/L, Vitathrive @ 0.5ml/L, Dual Fuel @ 0.5ml/L. - 300ppm with 5.8pH - She is looking more healthy today. Being more robust. - Her second set of leaves are not as progressed as the other girls. Just an observation. Apr 17, Day 7 - VPD 1.1 - Turned on flower light on UnitFarm this afternoon and they are happier. - Dry out day today and no added water/feed, just misting. - Let the medium dry out a bit and give a nice week 2 feed tomorrow.....they are ready for a little more nutrients now. - Not a lot to report today. She is happier than yesterday and getting bigger......can’t ask for much more👍💪👌

I needed a bigger reservoir, runoff catchment, and dehumidifier drain bucket because I had to go out of town for 5 days. Fortunately I calculated the volumes accurately and so when I got home I had at least another 24 hours of solution in the rez, and space in the runoff and dehumidifier catchment buckets. The other fortunate thing is that I came home to very happy and vigorously growing plants. The tallest colas are now 30 inches above the coco, and 20 inches from the light. There is one cola (pictured) whose stem is as thick as a sharpie! I ran out of the AN base nutrients and decided to switch over to GHE because the PH perfect buffers in the Advanced Nutrients line have been a huge pain in the ass. Also, I decided to mix my own bloom booster from Potassium Sulphate (0-0-53), Monopotassium Phosphate (0-52-34), and Epsom Salt after finding a DIY recipe (https://www.thcfarmer.com/threads/diy-hammerhead-confusions.47992/) to achieve a (0-9-18) NPK ratio. Significantly cheaper, but will be interesting to see what the results are in the end. I will be doing one more heavy defoliation on day 21 of flower because there are so many fan leaves laying on top of each other that its hard to keep the humidity down. Stay tuned!

Harvest was sad I didn't want to cut them down. That said, these baby's are dense as hell and smoke amazing. The water cure worked out well and pulled them out when the PPM dropped back to below 50. Not the best yeild but for what I'm going for it's] effect I already planted my next garden lol. Smoke report will have all the other details.

Love testing out genetics thank you so much , next round incoming ! 🚀 So this grow clearly a very neat grow, kept right on top of things with VPD, always in the optimal ranges even if i had to manually tinker with the mister , the exhaust, the fans, the lights. Speaking of the lights i applied a "pumping technique" meaning moving the lights up a down : down going into flower, then up then down again towards the end of flower to trigger rippening. The smart proteins were used through out the grow meaning the veg went nuts, started smelling loud right out of seedling stage, then at flower stretch i think it does help give it a kick, mid flower though it makes the trichomes rippen quicker than the plant can put on biomass, meaning you get strong , ripe colas that come out a bit thin. Cut and harvested at 30% amber believe it or not, to me that's late but i couldnt believe it when i noticed the plant was ripe at 10 weeks so i let it go on a bit longer. wet trimmed and dried over 10 days, Jarred and cured for 2 months.

Overall she is very easy to grow, resistant to training, but I didn't expect to grow so tall😂

Right then 7 weeks of flower complete. I'll dive right in to the juicy bits as this week has been predominantly about deciding weather to chop or keep one of my girls going. In the end I chose to do both! As the photos and videos show the plant wasn't recovering so I checked the trichomes and it was actually pretty ripe. A few Amber's on the upper buds. Lowers still undeveloped so I decided to take the biggest and leave the smallest for another week or while ever the plant is healthy. I estimate I've taken around 7oz once dry. Depending how they swell up I'm hoping for a further 5oz of solid bag worthy nugs. Looking nice and frosty, smell is that typical sweet haze with some sour diesel/fruit kick in there. You can see how the photos progress my hands getting covered in resin. Got to give my other 3 some love as they are getting healthier and fatter. I'm thinking another week on one of them and 2 on the others. I'll more than likely stagger the harvest like tonight if it proves worth while. I will update mid week.

Week 12 comes with no issues. Humidity dropped to 35-45% and temps increased a couple degrees both during the light and dark period due to weather change. Feed remained the same. Autoflower plant is harvested so they got a little more space in the tent now.

The buds are dense,fat & frosty 😋 Some purple color😈 Trichomes 10-20% amber🔬 The smell is DIVINE! Cookie & eucalyptus🍪❄️Super fresh👌

Time to harvest the Gelato. In this run, it turned out to be one of the best-performing strains. The main cola is rock hard and super dense, with the branches bending under the weight. Now it’s time to dry it and see what the final result will be. Cheers!

This was a wild ride. Gave way to many nutrients and I realised this way too late, when lock-ups already started to happen. The buds still look very potent, I just think they had way more in em size/potency wise if the nutrients would've been on point. Not growing auto flowers indoor anymore, but I'll deffo be growing this one outdoors this year! The smell is out of this world, #1 smells like tropical fruit juice, #2 more of a candy-sweetness but definitely tropical. Can't wait for ya'll to grow this one!

💜 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. 💜🌿

UPDATE : Very aggressive defoliation was needed, (Week 4 day 27 ) room is only 3x5and was very full My goal is having a grow that is easy to maintain with Nice big passages UPDATE: They are showing no damage from the defoliation. The Canopy is growing back quite fast , alot easier to deal with but next grow probably only go with 4 plants , 2 white widows , 2 blueberrys. I haven’t decided lst or top , SUGGESTIONS???? Update: Day 34 -removed aprox 30 sun leafs

6/15. Glad I listened to my intuition and held off watering. IT Rained andctheb again last night. Plants seem to be doingvreal well. Slight burn on lower leaves where it was before from being in the garage and I found on spot that LOOKED like it could've been caused by a pillar but it's right on a burn. I sefoliated one leaf. This is minor stuff. Next watering I'll be adding silica. I'm not giving nutes until the plants tell the need them. The 3 gallon ones may receive nutes first as they'll run out. I'll update as I progress. Went back over at 8:30. It's just overcast with showers. Plants seemed to like it. They all look good. Noticed a chunk out of a leaf and a POSSIBLE pillar spot. I'm going to have to get the BT out and and give the girls an application. I'm waiting until they settle in a bit more though. I need to start LST as well AND the light dep. Unfortunately "life" has made things difficult. I'll get back over there today though and I'll start the light dep. Kinda makes me wonder though. The 1pth planet I wanted to light deo is tge same size as the others in the much bigger containers. The thought came that maybe I should just hold on to them as extras in case something happens. I also am going to start silica next watering but it will be a few weeks before any nutes are given. UPDATE: WENT BACK OVER AT FIVE AND TOOK ACSHOT TON OF PICTURES. IM TRYING TO UOLOAD NOW. THINGS ARE POPPING OFF AND IM GETTING A NICE SWEET SKUNKY ODOR. WHILE I WASCTHERE WE GOT A QUICK SHOWER. DIDNT LAST MORE THAN TEN MINUTES BUT IT RAINED HARD. I FOUND A TEMPORARY SPOT TO LIGHT DEP THE TWO PURPLE PUNCH AND THE ONE TENTH PLANET. I DONT SEE ANY LIGHT LEALS AND ITS SURE AS HELL DARKER THAN IT IS AT NIGHT. I'LL SEE HOW IT GOES LEQVING THE COVER ON ALL NIGHT. IF IT DOESNT WORK I MAY JEED TO ADD A FAN OR CHANCECTHE SPACE. I ALMOST DIDNT WANT TO DO THIS AS THE 10TH PLANET IS KEEPING PACE WITH ITS SISTERS, DESPITE THE SMALLER POT. OH WELL I WANT TO GIVE IT A SHOT AND I DONT WANT MY CAGE OVER CROWDED. I'M LOOKONG TO DO A 6:30 TO 6:30 SCHEDULE. 6/16 First night of light dep for the three little ones. I won't be able to call them that soon. I'm currently trying to upload a video. My grow buddy mentioned the droopiness of a couple of my plants in this video and how I hadn't been watering. This kinda scared me so I ran over and checked the too few inches on the two that had a little droop and came out dry. I had some water already phed ready to go (I'm hoping that the ph doesn't change if it's stored a day or two) and used the gallon to moisten the dry topsoil. Looking back over my diary we have had nothing but rain. I then tried the "lift the pot method" and came to the conclusion that these bags were indeed still holding moisture. I assumed they would be considering the thunderstorms we've had. I held off on fullt watering because the weather said the next dry day is going to be Monday. Today is Friday so thats two solid days of rain. Three if you count today through the night. I concentrated my watering of the one gallon on the couple plants that appeared to droop. If it doesn't rain like they say it will I will need to water. I need to set up a decent watering schedule but I need it to hold off raining long enough to do so. UPDATE: I WENT BACK OVER AND PUT THE 3 GALS IN FOR BED AND CHECKED OUT THE REST OF THE GARDEN. I WATERED THE 3 GAL GIRLS A LITTLE MORE SINCE THEY WONT BE OUTSIDE. THE BIT OF WATER I GAVE SEEMED TO HELP LIFT SOME OF THE GIRLS. AT LEAST I THINK IT DID. THE RAIN SHOULDVE COME ALREADY. I WOULDVE WATERED MORE HAD THE BAGS NOT BEEN SO HEAVY. 6/17 Rained all night which is good. Brought the three transplants out but left them under the overhang so they. Dont get soaked. So far light depoing is going good. Well its only been two nights but we'll see. I'll update as I go. Not feeling well today. Went back over and checked on the plants and did a video. Probably won't get uploaded until tomorrow. I'm giving it a shot. It's raining in good shape. Plants looked fine when I was there. I need to get my supports and my trellis in place. Video won't upload. No suprise. I'll get it tomorrow. 6/18 Uploaded videos if they fuck up from me editing I'm gonna be pissed. Anyway it's still pouring with high winds. I added a couple supports where it looked like it needed it. I need to put my trellis up. I've been able to keep up with the light dep and those plants haven't been used and abused. They stay in the building facing the sun when the weather is this bad. I think they're looking great. I may start a new diary just for them. Sun came out around four. Trying to upload a couple videos but doesn't look like it's going to happen. Tucked the three little ones in at six. It had stopped raining and the wind died down some. If adverse conditions create good plants then I'm on the way to a great harvest. Minor bleaching and burns on a few lower fan leaves and some wrinkling on some from wind burn other than that plants seem to be acclimated. Did a video but will have to wait until tomorrow to upload 6/19 It's not raining! We got four inches this past storm lol. Having the bags raised on pollens I believe has greatly helped. As did the high winds that help dry the soil in the bag. Had to add a few temporary supports. Light dep is going good. Adjusted amd found a better spot. I'm considering getting "pool noodles" or some other thing like a Hulu hoops or pvc pipe and making either a frame on the roof for the entire cage or on top of each individual plants posts so I could roll clear plastic over it when it rains. I'm thinking about later on in the fall when this could really help. I found a roll of plastic. Also thought about putting that up on the back wall but I didn't. What I'm doing right now is working. I just need to keep up with it. I also need a solid watering schedule to stick too. It's hard when each plants needs are different. Oh well. I'm just happy to be growing again. I pray to the cannabis gods and the Lord above himself that I'm not plagued with the problems of last year. 6/20. I'm sick as fuck but I got the little girls out in the sun. Light dep is going good. Plants look great. I'll update when I feel better and if I do anything. Still feel like shit. Luckily I looked up just in time to get to the grow and put the little ones to bed. They were thirsty (especially the bushy 10th planet so I gave them about 3/4 of a gallon of water. Got lots of run off from 10th planet. Didn't notice as much from the others but I was hurrying. I'll upload later. Still sick. 6/21 Plants seem to be doing great. I removed some lower growth on a few just to see how they respond. I'm going to do some defoliation down low and I want to see how the plants respond. I'm planning my first full watering Thursday as we have a real good stretch of weather after that. Grow bags are still heavy as hell so they have sufficient water. I'll be adding silica nextcl watering. Not time for nutes but I think it would be okay to start the silica and in another week I might start small doses of nutes. The light dep on the little girls is go8ng great! It's cool I'll get to sample some of these strains before fall. I'll update after I do something. Tucked the girls in at 6. I might need to think about transplanting that 10th planet in the 3 gallon. I watered until runoff yesterday and it's light as hell today. Plus I fimked it and it's bushy as hell. I've Bern turning it si it gets all angles of the sun. I have a bag of 707 left and a 5 gallon bucket with holes drilled all over it like an air pot and a ten gallon grow bag. This will take some thought. Hot af today. I wad able to lift the grow bags so I decided tomorrow will be the girls first real watering. I think I'll be adding silica and possibly kelp me kelp you due to the heat stress I've been noticing. Nothing bad just a few tacoed leaves. I've had several people that have seen my grow in person tell me that this is by far the healthiest (not biggest I've had bigger) but by farcthe healthies5 crop I've grown. They believe I'll have my best year ever this year. I hope they are right. Vid won't be uploaded until tomorrow. 6/22 WATERED TODAY. I'm still a little gun shy with watering. That fusarium last year pretty much traumatized me. I left the container plants alone. I gave them a little water but not enough to do much. I used a pump sprayer on a mist setting and went one by one and back around gently watering the entire medium. This took forever and I'll be finding a different way to water. I hope this was enough water. I'll check later on and if they look like they want more I give it to them. I started LST on the light dep 10th planet and tucked some branches of a another under the tomato cage. I had missed that earlier. I also went around and cleaned up the bottoms on most. Getting rid of things that will amount to nothing. I noticed what looked like thrip damage on ONE leaf on ONE plant. I also saw a chunk missing from a grasshopper bite and a finger of a fan leaf petiol was broken so I'm going to need to get my ipm up and running. I'm unsure whether I'll be using chemicals or predators. Probably BT and spinosad. That's what I've had the best luck with. I also noticed bottom leaves dying off on the bottom of a couple plants. It was where the burns were though so I'm almost 100% its just related to the light burns they got when i first put them up. I'll be updating the diary as I do more stuff.

* Watering 2l every 3 days * Always tuck in the leaves to expose lower tops
