May 23rd - Day 93 : So intricate moment here. I'm considering harvesting one of the two, but a friend is telling me to wait till it's 20% amber or at least more cloudy. He's an experienced grower and has been of a precious help from the start. This grow is dedicated to my boy Droomba. I'm at week 7 of flowering and Fastbuds says 7 weeks. I'm going to push it for a week or two

really easy to grow. Had some issues in the begging being underfed and low ph issues. But still grew through all the struggles. Wasnt the biggest yield but wasn't the biggest plant. So wasn't expecting truly much. The purple pheno gave me a zip and half about. The other green one gave me a zip dry. Both smell lovely and can't wait. Will come back next week or so to update smoke report. Also fixing to make cannabutter from some of this can not wait ^_^ . Will grow it again but in a bigger pot maybe.

Hey now, hope everyone is staying safe and having a great week. The Glueberry OG started to stretch here in the past couple days and picked up 5 inches in the last 5 days, so we will see how long she continues to stretch. I will continue to feed her veg nutrients and and keep the medic grow spectrum x light in V1 mode as to help promote tighter internodal spacing. Once the stretch has stopped or at least almost stopped I will transition her to flower nutrients and introduce her to the flower spectrum of the light. I have started introducing UV/IR lighting to the grow tent for one hour before lights off. I just focused mainly on keeping the feeding reservoir clean, and PH'd, as well as some low stress training for her to attempt to have a nice even canopy. I am definitely more interested in flower quality than quantity at this point. I believe this lady will stretch for at least another week if not slightly longer just based on her expected harvest time of 12-13 weeks but we will see. Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! 💪 Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

Hoping these do well all my seedlings went downhill fast Took 15 clones today at 6:30 am 🕰️ Best Time to Start Your Cloning & Defoliation Ritual 🌄 Ideal Window: Start between 6:30 AM and 10:30 AM ET This time aligns with: • Pisces Moon energy still strong • Cooler temps and higher plant hydration (better clone success) • Rising sun = energetic ascension (matches your “ascending leaf” flow) • Moon still waning = perfect for rooting

Bravo, I am surprised by the fast buds 420, quality seems Both are 46 days old Gorilla Zkittlez Auto And Gorilla Cookies FF let's see what happens next week 🌲🌱💚🌵🌧️🌦️

Week 12!🤓 Im entering in the last Push! Mars Hydro FC1000-evo @ 100%🔥no CO2 no dehumidifier… She s more than resilient it’s a beast🦖 The buds are fattening nicely max 2-3 weeks

The plant was harvested and trimmed, yielding a total of 101 grams. Buds are notably dense and carry a satisfying weight, indicating strong structural development and resin content. Their visual quality is exceptional—each nug shimmers with a velvety green glow, reminiscent of fine fabric under light. This appearance may reflect optimal trichome coverage and healthy chlorophyll retention at harvest. The results suggest that the timing was well-aligned with peak maturity. Further analysis during curing will confirm aroma, potency, and terpene preservation.

Same this week. Some stretching and lst as it follows.In the second watering with 1L saw run off for first time. I think that I will lst again in (if necessary) the first days of next week and then stop.

Actualizamos familia, con la tercera semana de floración de estas Zoap Rose de Kannabia seeds. Gracias al LST arrancaron a crecer bien los satélites y va pareciéndose a un arbusto, tienen un color bien verde sin carencias por el momento y se ve que están sanas, las plantas están en macetas de 7 Litros definitivamente, con tierra top crop, con una altura similar a 55/60cms. Como los anteriores cultivos tuve visitantes(trips) estoy rociando aceite de neem y jabón potásico 1 vez a la semana, añadí también tiras de color azul / amarillo para prevenir y controlar mejor el tema plagas. El riego que aplicamos son 700ml de agua cada 48 horas y el ph se controla en 6.5, la temperatura la tenemos entre 22/25 grados y la humedad ronda el 55% gracias al humidificador. El mismo día que escribo esto el foco está al 100% de potencia. Me gusta subirlo muy progresivamente, las manías. - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida Descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com - los nutrientes directamente desde https://agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

🏆 Harvest Report – Seriotica (Grow complete) After a full 10 weeks of flowering, Seriotica was harvested right on schedule in Week 14. She delivered a solid yield of 123.08 g of dry buds 🌿 🔹 Highlights: Compact colas with a strong frost finish ❄️ Creamy, earthy aroma with subtle reddish-purple coloration Exceptionally stable throughout the entire grow – no deficiencies, no stress, no surprises Summary: Nutrients: Advanced Nutrients Masterline (pH Perfect) Medium: Plagron Lightmix / Coco 80/20 Seriotica was definitely a standout – both visually and in performance. More than happy with the results on this one 💯

Buds should be dried in the dark, 50% humidity, at 20 degrees

Good week everything going as it should

Wächst super und hat einen sehr schöne Farbe schön grün und gesund mach dem traning

The bud sites are filling in quickly, excited to see how they develop further. Smooth sailing, easy fun grow. Got a little over 13" tall. Super short, curious to see how much yield she gets.

Looking very good, this ladies are breaking the shield within 48hs since planted as I was expecting, let's see how my beautiful queens develop on this "little run" on a 2x4! Growing with a tsl2000 by mars hydro! 👨‍🌾💯✌️ Stay tuned guys.

Wasn’t an extra full week, but this is just before I chopped her down. Trichomes on buds were starting to show some amber, and I was a little over 9 weeks already so decided to chop her down. Plant is looking beautiful with all kinds of colors and super frosty buds

🍬 Candy Rain Auto by Zamnesia | Week 9 ✨ The Elegant Survivor Keeps Shining Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! There are plants that surprise you. There are plants that become bigger than expected. And then there are plants that simply keep getting better every time you look at them. Candy Rain is becoming exactly that plant. 🍬💚 When this adventure started, she was the survivor. The one remaining plant from her seed pack after I made a mistake that cost her sister the opportunity to join the experiment. At first, I was simply happy that Candy Rain had made it. Then she started growing. And growing. And developing. And flowering. And somewhere along the way, the little survivor stopped looking like a plant that had merely survived... and started looking like a plant that belongs in the spotlight. Week 9 now. And honestly? I'm loving everything about her. The colour. The leaves. The structure. The flowers. The calyxes. Those beautiful fresh white pistils. The balance. The way she carries herself. She's just... beautiful. And this week, I didn't need to do anything special. No defoliation. No big intervention. No attempt to reshape her. We're simply letting Candy Rain be Candy Rain. And she's doing a damn good job of it. 🍬✨ 🌱 The 8×8 Adventure – Let Genetics Speak For anyone joining the diary now, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure. This project is built around a simple idea: Give different genetics and phenotypes the same opportunity... and then watch what they do with it. The plants share the same room. The same 12/12 lighting schedule. The same environmental strategy. The same general nutrition. The same irrigation system. The same lighting ecosystem. The same grower. But the plants don't become identical. That's the whole point. The environment provides the stage. Genetics write the performance. And Candy Rain has certainly developed her own character. 🍬 From Survivor to Something Special I still find it funny looking back at where this girl started. She wasn't supposed to become one of the plants I would be watching this closely. She simply survived. And now I'm looking at her at Week 9 thinking: "Where the hell are you going?" 😂💚 Because she continues to impress me. She's not the tallest plant in the room. She's not the biggest. She's not trying to dominate everything around her. Instead, she has developed something I appreciate enormously: balance. Her structure is controlled. Her branches carry flowering sites beautifully. Her foliage remains healthy and functional. And the plant has that wonderful combination of strength and elegance. Nothing feels excessive. Nothing feels chaotic. She simply looks... right. 🌿 A Beautifully Balanced Plant This week, one of the things I appreciate most is the overall balance of Candy Rain. She's still carrying plenty of healthy foliage, but the canopy doesn't feel unnecessarily crowded. The branches have enough separation to allow us to see the developing flowers. The leaves are beautifully formed. And the entire plant has maintained that fresh, vibrant green that first caught my attention. There is something particularly satisfying about looking at a plant where everything seems to be working together. Leaves supporting flowers. Branches supporting structure. Flowering sites developing along the architecture. Nothing screaming for attention. Nothing demanding correction. Just steady development. And that's exactly why... there was no defoliation this week. ✂️ No Defoliation – Just Let Her Be Sometimes the best thing you can do for a plant is nothing. And that's where Candy Rain is right now. I'm not going to remove healthy leaves just because we're at Week 9. I'm not going to create gaps simply because the calendar says it's time for a cleanup. I'm looking at the plant. I'm looking at the canopy. I'm looking at the flowers. And I'm asking: Does she actually need me to interfere? This week, my answer is: No. She's balanced. She's healthy. She's flowering. She's maintaining good structure. So we're leaving her alone. We're letting her keep the leaves she's chosen to keep. We're letting her maintain the architecture she's built. We're letting her be what she is. And honestly... I think that's beautiful. 🌸 The Flowers Are Becoming Beautiful The flowering sites are now much more established. What started as tiny clusters of pistils has become unmistakable developing flowers. And the photographs this week really capture the details I love about Candy Rain. The calyxes are becoming increasingly pronounced. The fresh white hairs are still beautifully visible, reaching outward from the developing flowers. The flower structures are gaining definition. And the whole plant seems to be moving deeper into that stage where every week brings another visible change. This is one of my favourite moments in a grow. You're past the initial excitement of seeing the first pistils... but you're not yet at the final destination. You're somewhere in between. The flowers are telling you: "Wait. We're not finished yet." And I'm listening. ? Those White Hairs... I have to say it. I absolutely love the pistils on this plant. There is something incredibly elegant about those fresh white hairs emerging from the calyxes. They give the flowers that almost delicate appearance. And when you look closely at the photographs, you can see how much detail is already developing. This is where macro photography becomes particularly rewarding. You can look at the plant from a distance and think: "Beautiful flowers." Then you get closer... and suddenly you're looking at an entire microscopic landscape. Calyxes. Pistils. Sugar leaves. Early resin development. Textures. Patterns. It's one of the reasons I never get tired of photographing these plants. There's always another detail hiding there. 🍃 And Those Leaves... The leaves deserve their own little moment too. Because I genuinely love the foliage on this girl. They're beautifully formed. Healthy. Strong. And incredibly photogenic. The leaf structure adds so much to the overall appearance of the plant. And when you place those leaves around the developing flowers, the contrast between the green foliage and the lighter flowering structures makes the whole plant incredibly attractive. She's not just producing flowers. She's producing them inside a beautiful architecture. And that's something I really appreciate. 💡 Light From Above & Below The lighting environment remains consistent with the rest of the room. The Future of Grow Black Series LED provides the primary overhead illumination, while Lumiflora contributes additional under-canopy lighting. Candy Rain's open and elegant structure makes her particularly interesting to observe under this combination. Her flowering sites are distributed through different levels of the plant, giving us another opportunity to watch how the different parts of the canopy develop as flowering progresses. But I'm deliberately avoiding making big claims before harvest. The plants will tell us. The photographs will tell us. And eventually... the finished flowers will tell us. For now, we're simply watching. And enjoying the process. 💧 Feeding the Survivor Candy Rain continues on the same flowering nutrition strategy used throughout the project. 🌸 Terra Bloom — 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds — 1 ml/L ✨ Green Sensation — 1 ml/L 🍯 Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L 🍋 Lemon Kick — 0.03 ml/L Current recorded solution strength is approximately 2.0 mS/cm, with pH around 6.0. Watering is currently approximately 1.25 L per plant per 24 hours. And visually? She's happy. That's the most important part. The plant continues developing without giving me any reason to dramatically change direction. So once again... we stay the course. 🌡️ Week 9 Conditions Current conditions for this update: 🌸 Flowering: Week 9 📏 Height: 90 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: ~6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 🌬️ CO₂: 639 ppm ? Pot size: 15 L 💦 Watering: ~1.25 L per plant / 24h The environment remains consistent. And consistency is particularly valuable when we're trying to understand phenotype expression. The room stays relatively predictable. The plants remain unpredictable. And that's exactly what makes this adventure so much fun. 📸 This Week's Gallery I really like this week's gallery because it doesn't need any dramatic story attached to it. The photographs speak for themselves. You see the beautiful green leaves. You see the clean structure. You see the flowering sites distributed along the branches. Then you get closer... and suddenly the calyxes become the stars. The white pistils. The developing flower structures. The subtle beginnings of resin. The textures. The tiny details. Everything is telling the same story: Candy Rain is developing beautifully. And perhaps my favourite part is that she isn't doing anything complicated. She's not demanding a special intervention. She's not asking me to reshape her. She's simply growing. And I'm letting her. 🍬 The Elegant Survivor Has Become the Elegant Grower There's something poetic about this plant's story. She started this project because she was the one that remained. I made a mistake. Her sister didn't get the opportunity. Candy Rain did. And instead of simply surviving... she took that opportunity and turned it into something beautiful. Week after week, she developed. She stretched. She flowered. She built structure. And now she's standing here at Week 9 looking like she was always meant to be part of this adventure. That's something growing teaches you again and again. You don't always know which plant will capture your attention. Sometimes it's the biggest. Sometimes it's the weirdest. Sometimes it's the one with the most unusual phenotype. And sometimes... it's simply the one that quietly keeps getting better. Candy Rain is that girl for me. 🔮 Looking Ahead And now I'm genuinely curious. Where does she go from here? The structure is already beautiful. The flowers are clearly established. The calyxes are developing. The pistils remain fresh and abundant. And the plant is still carrying itself with that wonderfully balanced appearance. So I'm not going to rush her. I'm not going to start removing things simply because I think I should. I'm going to watch. I'm going to photograph. I'm going to document. And I'm going to let her tell me when she's ready for the next chapter. Maybe she'll surprise me again. Wouldn't be the first time. 😄 ✨ Let Candy Rain Shine There are plants you train. There are plants you guide. There are plants you have to constantly manage. And then there are plants where you eventually realize: "You know what? I've done enough. Now show me what you can do." That's Candy Rain. This week, no defoliation. No unnecessary intervention. No attempt to change her. She's healthy. She's balanced. She's beautiful. She's flowering. And she's doing exactly what I want her to do. So now... let her be. Let those leaves work. Let those calyxes develop. Let those beautiful white pistils continue appearing. Let those flowers build. Let the plant follow her own rhythm. Because sometimes the most beautiful thing a grower can do... is simply step back and watch. And Candy Rain? She's giving me a damn good show. 🍬💚✨ 💚 Final Thoughts Week 9. The little survivor is no longer just surviving. She's thriving. She's become one of those plants I genuinely enjoy photographing because every angle gives me something different. The green. The leaves. The structure. The flowers. The calyxes. The white hairs. The balance. There's so much to appreciate here. And I don't know yet exactly where she's going. That's the exciting part. Maybe she'll bulk dramatically. Maybe she'll continue developing slowly and elegantly. Maybe she'll surprise me with something completely unexpected. Whatever happens... I'm here to watch it. Because Candy Rain has already taught me something important: Never underestimate the survivor. 🍬✨ She was the one who remained. Now she's the one making me stop and look. And this week, she doesn't need a haircut. She doesn't need a redesign. She doesn't need to become anything else. She just needs to be Candy Rain. And honestly? That's more than enough. 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure, commenting, asking questions, sharing experiences and coming back every week to watch these plants develop.
