Es wächst alles wunderbar vor sich hin🍀

The plant grows really good and recovers good from the defoliation, topping and mainlining🍀 She grows really accurat and i will sent her in the next 1-2 weeks into flower🌺

It was another two beautiful, sunny weeks that have now come to an end. To be on the safe side, I examined Durban Poison, Shaman and Frisian Dew more closely and found that all the ladies, with the exception of Frisia n Dew, which are in the garden, had initially developed mould in the flowers. In addition, some green caterpillars fell out of the Durban Poison when the plant was shaken. Durban Poison had also completely stopped flowering, which I found unusual. I therefore decided to harvest all the ladies, except for Frisian Dew in the garden. This Frisian Dew is only now entering its main bloom and is not yet so susceptible. Durban Poison has developed very thick and heavy colas, followed by Shaman and Frisian Dew. See the picture with the scale. I was able to weigh a part of the harvest after the raw trimming, then at the weekend the batteries of the digital scale were empty. It will take a few more days until everything is dried and stored in jars for maturing but one thing is for sure, it's quite a lot. The plants are still standing with remaining flowers to see how they will handle the coming bad weather.

As I predicted the weather last week guess what?... it was a cold and wet week. My main issue its yellowing of the wedding cake. think i as to do with the cold weather as she is the close to the door. I allso burned then a litle with the foliar. The instruction clearly say it may burn withe heat and light aply at night. Guess what?... it was midday.... Black Cream Its Growing Good. Couckush its a litle bit burned. Growing good. Chubby Litle plant for now. Bomberry its starting to become the beast as is leaves size show. Totally diferent genetics Cheers BrotherHood

This new week started better as with some flushes I brought the runoff back to 6.5/7, the plant seems to be growing well

🍮 8×8 Adventure – Week 11 Chem Brûlée – Pheno A More Photons, More Frost, Still Completely Herself ❄️🌸💡 Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And here she is again... Chem Brûlée Pheno A. If you've been following her journey, you already know that this girl has never really needed much introduction. She's distinctive. She's beautiful. She's developing her own particular expression. And the further we move into flower, the more obvious that individuality becomes. This week, however, something important has changed around her. Not the plant itself. We're actually doing very little to the plants at this stage. The room has changed. The lighting has been upgraded. The nutrition has moved forward slightly. And now... we're stepping back and watching what the plants do with those changes. Chem Brûlée Pheno A is ready. So let's give her the spotlight. 🍮❄️🌸💡 ──────────────────────── 🌸 Week 11 – The Plant Knows What To Do Chem Brûlée Pheno A remains around 126 cm tall. And honestly... I'm not particularly interested in chasing that number anymore. The structure is established. The flowering sites are developing. The plant has already told us how she wants to occupy her space. Now we're entering one of those phases where the grower has to learn when to stop interfering. Earlier in the grow, we had plenty to do. Training. Canopy management. Defoliation. Positioning. Adjustments. Decisions. Now? We're mostly observing. And that's not because we're paying less attention. It's because the plants don't need us constantly touching them. Chem Brûlée is healthy. She's flowering. She's developing resin. She's maintaining beautiful foliage. She's doing what she needs to do. So we're letting her. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Let Her Be Chem Brûlée One of the things I appreciate most about this phenotype is that she has become increasingly recognizable as herself. When the grow started, she was simply: Chem Brûlée Pheno A. A label. A genetic description. A possibility. But after all these weeks... that name means something different now. It means this particular structure. This particular flower formation. This particular expression. This particular rhythm. This particular girl. That's one of the great things about growing multiple phenotypes. You start with the same genetic name. Then the plants introduce themselves. And Chem Brûlée Pheno A has definitely introduced herself. She's unique. She's frosty. She's developing beautifully. And she's doing it her own way. ──────────────────────── ❄️ The Frost Is Becoming Harder To Ignore One of the first things that catches my attention when I look at her photographs is still the resin. The frost is becoming increasingly visible. Those developing flowers are starting to carry more and more of that beautiful sparkling character. And this is exactly where the camera becomes one of my favourite tools. From a distance, you see the plant. Closer... you start seeing the phenotype. The trichomes. The sugar leaves. The pistils. The developing flower structure. The tiny details that make Chem Brûlée Pheno A different from the plant standing next to her. That's why I keep photographing everything. The camera doesn't just capture the plant. It captures the progression. And when you put ten or eleven weeks of photographs together... you can actually see the plant becoming herself. ──────────────────────── 💡 The 8×8 Just Received A Photon Upgrade Now let's talk about the biggest change this week. The plants haven't needed much physical intervention. But the lighting environment has changed significantly. We've added two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures to the room. And yes... we definitely noticed. 😂💡 The available light increased substantially. Actually... it increased a little more than I wanted. So instead of simply accepting the higher intensity, we reduced the fixture output. We're currently running at approximately: 🔌 59% power from the plug. And we're seeing approximately: ☀️ 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. That's a very strong lighting environment. And I'm much happier controlling that environment than simply chasing the biggest possible PPFD number. We now have considerably more lighting capability available to us. And that gives us something I really like: Control. ──────────────────────── ☀️ More Capability Doesn't Mean More Watts This is an important part of the experiment. We have powerful fixtures. We don't necessarily need to run them at maximum output. We added the two additional Black Series 600W lights. We measured the resulting light levels. The PPFD went higher than I wanted. So we turned them down. Simple. 😂 Now we're sitting around 59% power from the plug and getting approximately 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. And there's another benefit. We're using less electricity. We're also not unnecessarily pushing the fixtures and associated equipment harder than necessary. So we're testing the equipment properly while also finding a practical operating point. That's exactly what I wanted to do with these additional fixtures. Not simply: "Look how much light we can make." But: "How much useful light do we actually want?" And now... we're finding that answer. ──────────────────────── 💚 A Huge Thank You To Future Of Grow I want to give Future of Grow a special shout-out this week. They provided the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures for us to test here in the 8×8 Adventure. And this is exactly what we're doing. We're testing them in a real flowering room. We're measuring. We're observing. We're adjusting. We're learning. The additional fixtures gave us more lighting capability than we initially needed, so we reduced the output to approximately 59%. We're now sitting around 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. And I'm very happy with the result. Strong light. More control. Lower power consumption than simply running everything flat out. And twelve plants giving us twelve different responses. Thank you, Future of Grow, for giving us the opportunity to put these fixtures through their paces. ──────────────────────── ☀️ Chem Brûlée Under The New Artificial Sun And Chem Brûlée? She's still Chem Brûlée. 😂 That's actually one of the things I love about this experiment. We can change the lighting environment. We can make more photons available. We can adjust the output. But the genetics still have the final say. The light provides energy. The plant decides what to do with that opportunity. And Chem Brûlée Pheno A continues expressing herself exactly as she has throughout this journey. Her structure. Her flower formation. Her frost. Her personality. Nothing about the additional light has changed who she is. It simply gives her another opportunity to make use of the environment. And that's what we're watching now. ──────────────────────── ☀️ Around 1,500 PPFD At The Upper Canopy The approximately 1,500 PPFD we're currently seeing is measured across the upper canopy. And that's an important distinction. A plant is not a flat solar panel. 😂🌿 Chem Brûlée has flowers and leaves at different heights. Some areas receive stronger direct light. Other areas sit deeper within the structure. Some leaves are positioned perfectly toward the fixtures. Others naturally receive less. That's normal. We're not trying to make every single flower receive identical intensity. We're trying to create a strong overall lighting environment while allowing the plant to use that light effectively. And because Chem Brûlée is a taller phenotype, the three-dimensional relationship between plant and light becomes particularly interesting. Upper canopy. Middle canopy. Interior. Lower flowering sites. Every level has its own relationship with the photons. ──────────────────────── 💡 Light Is Only One Piece Of The Puzzle This is something I keep coming back to throughout the 8×8 Adventure. More light doesn't automatically mean better results. The plant still needs to be able to use that light. Temperature matters. Humidity matters. CO₂ matters. Water matters. Nutrition matters. Root health matters. Leaf health matters. And the structure of the plant determines how efficiently those photons can move through the canopy. Everything is connected. That's why I'm much happier having the ability to control the lighting rather than simply increasing intensity without thinking about everything else. The two new fixtures give us more capability. The 59% output gives us control. The plants tell us whether the environment is working. And Chem Brûlée? She's looking happy. That's the important part. ──────────────────────── ⚗️ Nutrition – Another Small Step Forward We've also made a small nutritional adjustment this week. Again... nothing dramatic. We're simply increasing Terra Bloom slightly as the plants continue progressing through flowering. The current programme is: • Terra Bloom — 2.3 ml/L • Green Sensation — 1 ml/L • Power Buds — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • pH adjustment as required That small increase in Terra Bloom has brought the EC up slightly. We're now around: ⚡ EC — 2.14 mS/cm And that's exactly the kind of adjustment I prefer. Small. Measured. Controlled. We're not changing everything simply because another week has passed. We're supporting the plants as their requirements develop. And Chem Brûlée is giving us a very good reason to remain confident in the current direction. She's green. She's flowering. She's producing resin. She's developing. So... we continue. ──────────────────────── 💧 Irrigation – Consistency Over Complexity The irrigation system continues doing its job in the background. We're now around: 💧 1.45 L per plant / 24 hours with the nutrient solution around: 🌡️ 25°C and the substrate around: 🌡️ 25°C. At this stage, consistency becomes increasingly valuable. We're not trying to force Chem Brûlée to drink more simply because she looks beautiful. We're watching her demand. We're keeping the root environment stable. We're providing what the system requires. And then we're allowing the plant to decide what she does with it. That's becoming the general philosophy of this stage of the 8×8 Adventure. Provide. Observe. Adjust when necessary. Otherwise... let the plant grow. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Week 11 – Current Environment The room is currently running approximately: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 26.5°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 26°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 61% • 🥥 Substrate Temperature: 25°C • 💦 Nutrient Solution Temperature: 25°C • ⚗️ pH: 6.02 • ⚡ EC: 2.14 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 693 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 12/12 • 💧 Irrigation: approximately 1.45 L/plant/24h • ? Pot Size: 15 L • 📏 Plant Height: approximately 126 cm Summer still likes to keep things interesting. 😂☀️ Absolute environmental perfection isn't always realistic. What matters is stability. Keeping the important variables within a controlled range. Avoiding unnecessary swings. And watching the plants themselves. And right now... Chem Brûlée looks perfectly comfortable. ──────────────────────── 🌿 We're Not Removing Leaves Just Because We Can Another thing worth mentioning at this stage is canopy management. Earlier in the grow, removing foliage had a clear purpose. Opening the canopy. Improving access. Managing structure. Creating space. But now? We don't need to remove healthy leaves simply because they're there. Those leaves are working. They're capturing photons. They're contributing to photosynthesis. They're supporting the plant. So we're not looking at defoliation as something that needs to happen automatically every week. If something genuinely needs attention, we'll deal with it. If an area becomes excessively crowded, we'll assess it. If airflow needs help, we'll respond. But otherwise... let her work. Chem Brûlée doesn't need to be turned into a skeleton to flower beautifully. She needs a healthy, functional canopy. And that's what we're maintaining. ──────────────────────── 🌸 The Flowers Are Taking Over The Story The further we move into flowering, the more the flowers become the main story. And they're looking beautiful. The pistils remain prominent. The flower structures are becoming more defined. The resin is becoming increasingly obvious. And slowly... the individual flowers are becoming substantial structures rather than simply flowering sites. That's the transformation we're here to document. Week by week. Photograph by photograph. Observation by observation. And Chem Brûlée Pheno A is giving us a particularly interesting one. She's not simply becoming a flowering plant. She's becoming a very specific expression of Chem Brûlée. And that distinction is important. ──────────────────────── 📸 The Camera Is Loving This Girl I have to admit... Chem Brûlée Pheno A is becoming a very enjoyable subject. 😂📸 The wide photographs show the plant's overall structure. The height. The branches. The flowering sites. But the close-ups? That's where she really starts talking. The frost. The pistils. The sugar leaves. The developing flowers. The textures. The tiny details. Those photographs allow us to see what the naked eye sometimes misses. And when you compare them with the earlier weeks... you can see just how much she has changed. One photograph is a moment. An entire diary is a story. And hers is becoming a very interesting one. ──────────────────────── Same Room. Different Answer. This is still the heart of the 8×8 Adventure. Twelve plants. One room. Shared conditions. Shared environmental philosophy. Shared lighting. Shared irrigation. Shared nutritional strategy. And yet... twelve different answers. Some plants are compact. Some are tall. Some develop dense structures. Some spread. Some express their flowers differently. Some show their personality immediately. Others take longer. Chem Brûlée Pheno A has definitely given us one of the more distinctive answers. She's tall. She's individual. She's increasingly frosty. And she's developing a character that belongs entirely to her. That's what makes phenotype work so fascinating. ──────────────────────── 🍮 Chem Brûlée Is Becoming Herself If I had to describe what I'm seeing now, I'd say the picture is becoming clearer. At the beginning, we had possibilities. Now we have evidence. We can see her structure. We can see her flowering style. We can see her resin development. We can see her relationship with the canopy. We can see her personality. She's not trying to be another phenotype. She's not trying to follow the plant next door. She's simply expressing what she is. And that's exactly what I want. Because the goal of this project isn't to force twelve plants into one shape. It's to give twelve plants the opportunity to show us what they're capable of. Chem Brûlée Pheno A is taking that opportunity. And she's doing it beautifully. ──────────────────────── 🔬 The Photon Experiment Continues The addition of the two Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures adds another fascinating layer to the 8×8 Adventure. We're now testing a considerably more capable lighting setup. But we're not simply pushing the fixtures to their limits. We increased the available light. The PPFD went higher than I wanted. We reduced the output. Now we're around 59% power. Approximately 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. And less electricity being used than if we simply ran the fixtures at full power. That's a result I'm very happy with. The experiment isn't about proving that more watts are always better. It's about finding the useful level. The practical level. The level where the plants can make good use of the photons while the rest of the environment remains balanced. And Chem Brûlée is right there helping us answer that question. ──────────────────────── 🔮 Looking Ahead From here, the plan is beautifully simple. Keep watching. Keep photographing. Keep the environment stable. Keep irrigation consistent. Keep the nutrition appropriate. Keep monitoring the lighting. And let Chem Brûlée continue doing what she does. Over the coming weeks, I'll be watching: 🌸 Continued flower development ❄️ Increasing resin coverage 🌿 Healthy foliage 💡 Response to the stronger lighting environment 💧 Water demand 🌡️ Environmental stability 🌬️ Air movement through the canopy 📈 Increasing flower definition and density There's no need to force the next chapter. It's coming naturally. We're simply going to be there to document it. ──────────────────────── 🍮 Final Thoughts – Her Own Kind Of Shine There are weeks in a grow where the grower does a lot. And then there are weeks where the most important thing the grower can do... is step back. This is one of those weeks. We added two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures. We tested the increased lighting capability. The PPFD went higher than I wanted. So we reduced the output to approximately 59%. We're now seeing around 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. We made a small increase to Terra Bloom. The EC moved slightly higher to approximately 2.14 mS/cm. And then... we stepped back. Because Chem Brûlée Pheno A doesn't need us constantly interfering with her. She's healthy. She's green. She's flowering. She's getting frosty. She's developing beautifully. And she's doing it in a way that belongs entirely to her. That's what I want to see. Not a perfect copy of another plant. Not a phenotype forced into a particular shape. Her. Exactly as she is. The lights are stronger. The photons are flying. The nutrition has moved slightly. The environment remains stable. And Chem Brûlée? She's shining. 🍮❄️🌸💡 So keep doing what you're doing, girl. Keep building. Keep frosting up. Keep showing us what this particular expression can become. We're watching. We're photographing. We're learning. And we're enjoying every minute of it. ──────────────────────── 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for giving us the opportunity to explore these Chem Brûlée genetics and, more importantly, to document this individual phenotype from seed through flowering. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden with the nutrition helping these girls continue their flowering journey. And a massive thank you to Future of Grow for providing the Black Series lighting powering our artificial sun and for providing the two additional 600W fixtures for us to test here in the 8×8 Adventure. Being able to increase the available lighting, measure the result, adjust the output and find a practical operating point has been a fantastic part of this experiment. We're currently running around 59% power and seeing approximately 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy while also reducing unnecessary electricity consumption. That's exactly the kind of real-world testing I love. Thank you as well to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the deeper parts of the canopy and allowing us to explore lighting as a three-dimensional environment. And of course... thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person stopping by to see how these girls are developing. You're all part of this adventure. Twelve plants. One room. One shared environment. And twelve different stories. Chem Brûlée Pheno A is writing one of them. She's tall. She's distinctive. She's becoming increasingly frosty. She's developing beautiful flowers. And she's doing it her own way. The lighting is stronger. The nutrition has moved slightly. The environment remains stable. And now... we let her continue. 🍮❄️🌸💚 Because sometimes the best thing a grower can do is provide the conditions, pay attention, and step back. Chem Brûlée doesn't need us to force her story. She's already writing it. So let's keep watching. Let's keep photographing. Let's keep those photons flying. And let's see what this beautiful girl shows us next. Until next week... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💚 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿🍮❄️🔥

So yeh this weeks been good. This is the first flowering entry even tho they’ve been on a 12/12 cycle for about a week now because I wanted to at least see pre flowers before I started the flower entries. I now see a few but not on all plants. Not long tho I suspect. Everything is going great. These are the tallest plants at the mo and they are just preying too the light. They look so beautiful. I did lollipop them and spread the growth nodes out quite a bit with LSTing and they’ve responded beautifully. It’s such a relief coming from photos to know i can make a couple mistakes if I like and if I don’t make any my god do they reward you and respond well!!! I’ll be going back in at day 42 of flower to tidy up again but they are good for now 👍

Excellent plant smells mango at harvest 😗

03/13/2022 Love the colors on Grape Skunk #1 others are not as purple, again i forgot Biscotti Skunk and lemon og. 03/14/2022 Uploading Biscotti Skunk pic's I'm really loving 3 particular girls this run,all plants are exposed to PW intentionally I need girls that can take PW with no issues and three plants are spotless. The first is the only Biscotti Skunk that was female of 5 cloning for outside run but will do great in basement without PW issues. The second is lemon og spotless, and the third is the grape skunk thats got most color the second tallest of the grape skunks, cloning for testing in New England zone 7 should get at least one if not all 3 to finish before cold sets in.

Growing growing growing. So, I have an extremely stressful job, and even though working with plants (of all types, not just weed) is how I unwind, it is coming to a head. Therefore, while I am still trying to get my updates up on Saturday or Sunday, sometimes, I spend the weekend just short of catatonic. However, enough about that shit. These plants are BUSHY. B-U-S-H-Y. Thankfully, the plants have realized where each other are and aren't really growing into each other. We're getting closer to one square yard by the moment it seems like. Other than that, not too much to report. Whenever I open the tent, I am hit by a blast of smell. I can't wait to see what these smell like when they're actually flowering. I have already decided what I will be adding in for the flower cycle, so we'll see. Update: after a bunch of deliberation, I spent a good chunk of time between the past 2 days defoliating, LST, and supercropping these plants to stop growing into each other. I'm happy with the results, and pictures will be up soon.

Lovely to smoke. With a great weight given the set back with nute lock. Which Is the downfall to this run. Because this happened In last 3weeks which certainly resulted in small buds. However I am totally pleased with final weight and smoke from.this girl. Xx

the buds are swelling nicely now starting to reduce the amount of feed i give it and increase the {Rain water} ,we use water from the sky all times we find its the best source of water for plants. This project is to show you can have an idea in mind and for fill it T shape {top shelf} This is all down to the spacers and remember this was a cutting straight into flower as are most of my grows,if anyone is into this and would like to learn then drop me a text. we can send you some free spacers.

The girls are growing up.

Estas tomas fueron hechas el 25 de enero de este 2022. Es dificil determinar el inicio de la flora en exterior, pero considerando la fecha y el estiramiento que se viene dando ya empezamos a florar! Se volvió a podar bajos y lavado con Mamboreta ABA para prevenir y combatir arañas (sobretodo las rojas..). 7 dias mas tarde se rego con Delta 9 El mes arranco muy caluroso, con temperaturas por encima de 43° Celsius para ir terminando este enero con bastantes lluvias, humedad y descenso de temperaturas. ig: @micro.semilla

This week has been all about the trichomes! They haven't really started to frost up to this point but I've just been in the tent to get some photos any my god are they sticky! The size and density of the buds on the shorter plant is beyond belief. The scrog net has worked incredibly well creating a thick even canopy. I recommend this technique to any grower including newbies like myself. Final week of full strength nutes. As of next week I'm expecting they will start to fade out a bit. I still think they could mabey go another 2 weeks before starting a flush. Time isn't really a problem for me im happy to let them go on as long as they need to reach full potential. Even at this point regardless of the outcome I'll definitely give this strain another grow. Its soooo easy to grow and the size is phenomenal. Stinks of stomped oranges with a hint of pepper. Wow.

17 days old little girls

El inicio es sencillo, la 10th planet se come los nutrientes más rápidos que el resto del ciclo, la Purple majik por el contrario, se tarda un poco más en secar el sustrato pero su desarrollo es rápido.

Some plants seem to be turning colors early. Pretty fast flowering varieties so not concerned. Covered in trichomes. It’s beginning to smell super fruity.

I accidentally gave the babies a drink mixed with a shot of dehumidifier chemicals. I mean, there’s stiff learning curves being a first time grower but that is just thick as pig shit territory. It only dawned on me the next day and I rapidly flushed. Think the orange bud is looking a little healthier, but they are both hanging in there. Chemicalicious.

Few days before i chop them down
