GROW 😛 Plants have grown rapidly. GraduallIy I removed the side branches. They look very naked now. But experience has taught me that - especially with SOG - you can almost never overdo it, by removing sidebranches for up to 3 weeks of flowering (depending on the sativa/indica ratio). Usually these branches do not get enough light, so they do not produce many flowers. 😺 On DAY 12 : The smallest plant is 36 cm. The largest plant is 60 cm. 😊 ------------------------------------------ BLOOM 😍 First flowers appear. The plants already smell very nice ! 👍 ------------------------------------------ WATER + NUTRITION 😱 On day 8 I watered the plants by hand, for the last time: 5 liter water with 2 tablets of RQS Easy Bloom Booster. From day 9 I have connected the autopots to the water tank. Hopefully the biotabs tablets provide enough nutrition for the coming weeks. ------------------------------------------ AIR HUMIDITY 😨 To keep the humidity at the desired level, I have to refill the two 7.5 liter humidifiers daily. 👍 As long as the plants do not have real buds, I like high humidity for a stimulating VPD. 💪

🌱 8×8 Adventure – Cash Express (Plant B) | Week 4 Taking Her Time to Build Something Special Welcome back to another update from my 8×8 Adventure, where twelve unique genetics are growing together under identical conditions while every phenotype receives its own individual diary. This project is all about discovering how different plants express themselves, even when sharing the same environment, feeding schedule, and care. This week belongs to Cash Express – Plant B, and although she’s following the same path as her sister, she’s choosing to walk it at her own pace. While Plant A has already started flirting with pre-flowering, this beautiful lady is still fully focused on building her vegetative structure before making the transition. And honestly… I love seeing those differences. ⸻ 🌿 Life Inside the 8×8 Jungle Everything inside the tent continues running smoothly as the entire garden moves closer to flowering. The ecosystem remains stable, allowing every phenotype to express its own personality without environmental stress influencing the outcome. Healthy airflow, consistent temperatures, and balanced humidity continue creating the perfect conditions for vigorous growth. One of the things I enjoy most about this project is watching twelve different cultivars evolve together while still behaving completely differently. Cash Express B is proving that genetics always have the final word. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Program This week she continued receiving the same balanced nutrition as the rest of the garden. Feeding Schedule • Plagron Terra Grow • Plagron Power Roots • Plagron Pure Zym • Plagron Vita Race (foliar) The plants continue responding with lush green foliage, healthy stems, and steady growth, confirming that the feeding strategy remains right where it needs to be. ⸻ 🌱 Growth & Development Although slightly behind her sister in maturity, Plant B has developed into a beautifully balanced plant. Her structure is compact but steadily stretching upward, and she’s beginning to establish herself as one of the taller ladies in the room. Every day she adds a little more height while continuing to strengthen the lower branching that will support future flower sites. Unlike Plant A, I’m not officially calling pre-flower on this phenotype just yet. The growth tips are becoming increasingly active, but she’s still investing most of her energy into vegetative expansion rather than reproductive growth. Sometimes patience produces the biggest surprises later in flower. Her leaf color remains vibrant, stems are becoming thicker by the day, and new growth appears healthy and vigorous across the entire plant. ⸻ ✂️ Low Stress Training Training this week remained gentle and intentional. Leaf tucking and light Low Stress Training continue opening the canopy while allowing more light to reach the developing side branches. She’s responding exactly how I hoped. Each adjustment encourages additional branching without slowing her natural momentum, and the canopy is beginning to widen nicely while maintaining excellent symmetry. Rather than forcing her into shape, I’m simply guiding her and letting her genetics do the rest. ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead Over the coming week I’ll continue allowing Plant B to dictate the pace. There’s no rush. I’ll keep encouraging lateral growth through gentle LST, continue opening the canopy with occasional leaf tucking, and wait patiently for her to announce the beginning of flowering in her own time. With the way she’s developing now, I expect she’ll reward that patience with a strong, well-balanced canopy ready to support plenty of flowering sites. Every day she’s becoming a little stronger, a little wider, and a little closer to showing exactly what this phenotype has hidden inside. ⸻ 💚 Final Thoughts This is exactly why I love running phenotype hunts. Two sisters. The same genetics. The same environment. The same feeding schedule. Yet completely different personalities. Cash Express Plant B reminds us that every plant has her own rhythm. She’s calm, methodical, and focused on building a solid foundation before taking the next step. Sometimes those are the plants that surprise us the most when harvest day finally arrives. I’m excited to watch her story unfold over the coming weeks. Thank you all for following this 8×8 Adventure and for joining me on another chapter of this incredible journey. A huge thank you to Plagron for providing the nutrition that keeps this garden thriving, Zamnesia for supplying the genetics and equipment that make this project possible, and of course to the amazing GrowDiaries community for all the support, inspiration, and shared knowledge. Growers Love and see you all in the next update, where this beautiful lady may finally decide it’s time to join her sister and begin the next stage of her adventure. 🌱💚

*This is not pictures of the 4 leaf baby*. That one died…moving on With This OG Kush auto pictured I haven’t done anything other than a few feedings and some water. I didn’t do any lst, topping or stress training. I am using air pots with some vermiculite, a bit of worm compost mix from local store, and a dash of 20/20/20 when it was a seedling.

Here we are for the Week 8 Update for my biggest grow to date. The ladies are really starting to show trichomes like crazy along with their buds sites swelling seems like every day. Several of the ladies I had to defoliate again because they just became so bushy and I'm trying to make sure even the lower half of the plant is getting enough light. I've also noticed that all the ladies seem to be on the same track except for AK-49 #4 which just didn't grow much due to lack of light at the beginning of its life cycle and Girl Scout Cookies #2, which is almost done! Since I'm in the home stretch I check them every day to see if they need water because they've been super thirsty since they have been in flower. Well, that's gonna wrap it up for this week fellow growers, Happy Growing and remember to "Free Your Mind, One Puff At A Time "😉

Guys Shes looking very good but I am noticing that she is kinda short and I believe she got stressed out after all the techniques we applied on her, I think I will only go with LST/HST and defoliation for next time with the auto flowers, I think they don't have enough time to recover and I think we get to see it here because otherwise she would have grown like the cream Mandarine, she is an XL but not looking like that tho. Everything else is good, either that or too many nutes and she got locked out with nutes which I don't think so since she is giving nice smells and flowers and the main trunk got many compact buds forming sites, I just think I need to let them be since auto genetics are too delicates to fuck with, specially this strain not all the strains responds equally, in my experience amnesia, grapefruit and even cream Mandarine XL are warriors, they will resist and recover fats but this lady os very delicate and need to be trates carefully, we did a lot of experiments on this one and I bet the high is wicked bomb just the fact that will produce ultra high quality bud but not as much as you would expect im guessing 15g dry bud top and probably 40 wet but I will let you know at the end, I think I am going to harvest this girl in about 4-5 weeks from now what do you think? Feel free to leave your comments below and please enlighten me with your experience brothers Happy growing :) @cannagrowersiriuz #Instagram

Start in to week 7 As usual, she lost again some Fanleaf's 😏 She's getting really sticky and she's developing a stronger fruity smell in the last 2 days👍 Trying out a CO2 Bag.... And she gets another watering with 2l with 1g/l BioEnhancer Day 78. Day83 Trichome's are most milky and some few Ember at the Top's. Still few clear I think she get another Week and she will be finish👍

Transplanted the photos,they are stunted do lack of nutrients should recover shorty also the runtz muffins with the broken stem has recovered nicely and have started lst on it and the gorilla cookies auto

WELL WELL WELL BROTHERS OF THE WEED! MY FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH THIS SEED HOUSE WAS SENSATIONAL !!!! AS WAS MY FIRST EXPERIENCE OF GROWING MY PLANT IN PHOTOPERIOD FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE ...... THE RESULT ???? FANTASTIC QUALITY GEMS THAT SPILL WITH GLUE. MY SUPER CHALLENGE WAS MAKING THEM GROW OUTDOOR FOR THE WHOLE VEGETATION, THEN PUSH THEM TO FLOWER IN THE TENT! IT WAS NOT SIMPLE .... AT THE BEGINNING I HAD TO FACE MANY PARASITES .... BUT AFTER VARIOUS PRECAUTIONS WE WERE ABLE TO GO THE RIGHT TOWARD ME AND MY BELOVED CHILDREN .... I CUT THE BUDS FROM THE TOP TO THE BOTTOM, that is, I REDUCED THE CANOPY BY CUTTING FIRST THE TOP AND AFTER A FEW DAYS, THE UNDERLYING PART. THEIR RESISTANCE WAS REALLY NOTABLE FOR THE LITTLE SPACE AVAILABLE IN THE TENT AND SINCERE I BELIEVE THAT I COULD NOT ASK MORE FROM SANTA CLAUS THAT A LARGE HARVEST IS EXCELLENT QUALITY FOR THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS (IF THIS WE COULD HOLIDAYS) AFTER AN EXPERIENCE SO CLEARLY POSITIVE .... I CANNOT TRY THEM ALL ... YOU CONTINUE TO FOLLOW ME AND SUPPORT ME AS ALWAYS BEST REGARDS PEAKYPLANTERS

seventh veg week, ladies look good, get bushy

Divine indica is growing great. She is really healthy, and happy looking. She has been doing some stretching, about a inch a day. She will be due for a solution change pretty soon. Thank you Spider Farmer, and Divine Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

everything going as planned cant wait for week 2

Gave them rain water when they needed it 👍

Vegetative Steering 71f/60% 6:30 220 P1 6:49 440 P1 7:08 660 P1 7:27 880 P1 7:46 1100 P1 8:09 1320 P2 10:45 1540 P2 11:04 1760 P2 03:00 1320 P3 Day 14 Plant training shows most here. I do not like the look of a doubled topped plant.(will continue to do one top per 6 week Veg) Day 15 Secret sauce microbes 1ml per. Day 16 Tricantonol Spray(150ppm) Did that spray fix the sick plants? I think so 15 of 16 plants have preflowers. the 7 week veg plants are my favorite. 7 weeks is good if i will be topping twice The third fan was crucial to humidity control Day 17 Sprayed 6 plants(pictured right) with Jas wondering if these 6 will have stunted growth. Either they will have a stress response and halt root growth to early OR they grow normal but are a but frostier These 6 will be sprayed a second time during week 4 BEFORE the bud sites are medium sized. The other 6 will be sprayed once wk4 qnd once wk 5

Lst e troca de fotoperiodo para 12 horas de luz e 12 horas de Escuro

This week we should really see these colas blow up and start stacking really strong. The mixer of 7 hours of sun and 17 hours under my LEDs has really helped my girls grow strong. Nothing compares to good old Mother Nature.

So started the week with 4 clones. Not sure what happened but lost a couple. Lost the really squat strain which hermd the most. I do believe I could've guided it more slowly and gentler. But gone now unfortunately. I do have the most vigorous one and the middle one. Again if I wouldnt have stressed it so much I think it might still be here. Regardless we will take more clones when we lollipop make some reveg. Also I named the Cuts SHE HULK(biggest light green and purple throughout even in pistils) and Mystique(Not as many flower sites but showing way more Blue Power genetics with the darker wider leaves.) Transplanted 2 clones SHE HULK and I'll call her Rogue because my hypothesis is that in the position it was in and touching the squattiest plant that hermd the most triggered it to. But I will watch closely. Not rush her and see what happens. Have a Mystique clone but seems it may not make it. Again we will take clones soon. Think lollipop time is end of this week. Cheers GROWMIES!
