I have been worried for a while about how close the plant grew to my led lights. The usual recommendation is like 16-20" above , but I can't raise my lights and this plant stretched so fast a couple colas got away from me. As you can see in the photos and video, some are as close as 6-12 inches and because this plant is a slow developer, I think it's starting to Foxtail. In response to this and preparation for upcoming harvest, I lowered the intensity of my light and changed the light schedule from 19/5 to 16/8. I've been lowering the nutrients all week and will be flushing all next week. I've been preparing for trimming and drying, only worry is keeping the correct humidity, but we'll see.

One plant showing moderate magnesium deficiency. The other 2 plants are looking good, with one other plant also have slight magnesium deficiency. I will up the cal-mag for them next feed.

2.3.2024: More of the same. "Plants" are getting bushier. 2 Nodes with the 3rd coming through. Look healthy. Top soil is dry but a few millimeters below is still moist. Once the 3rd node fully develops i'm considering topping but we'll see. Definitely can tell the Crystal Meth has a different structure then the Emerald Fire OG. I'll add pics at some point today 2.4.2024: Watered 32oz at 6.3ph. No run off. 2.5.2024: No water today. Plant is still super moist. Temp hovers around 77-79 and RH has been struggling to stay at or above 60%, even with the humidifier on and the inline fan speed at 2. I've increased the humidity output with the goal of getting it to the 60%-65% range. Leaves are getting bigger and everything is nice and green but i'm surprised at the lack of vertical growth. Its only day 17 from seed so we've got time. Just raised the light to 14 inches from soil and increase power to 50%. 2.6.2024: Moving along nicely. Plant is a little stubby. Nodes are tightly spaced when compared to the Emerald Fire OG. Perhaps thats just the difference in genetics? Raised the light again to 16 inches from soil with the hope of inducing some vertical growth. 2.7.2024: No change to current state. Struggling for lower shoot development due to fan leaves blocking light access. I couldn't help myself so i clipped the single leaves on the bottom of the plant. Probably a big mistake but it'll be a learning lesson if it comes back to bite me. Not much change in vertical growth so i'm thinking about raising the light an inch or two to see if that will help them stretch. Watered 64oz of 6.3ph. Small bit of run off, ph also at 6.3. 2.8.2024: Day 20 from seed. At the moment, the very small haircut i gave the plant didn't seem to have any adverse affect. Lamp at 14 inches from top of the plant, still at 50% power(75watts). Fan leaves are nice and full but rather stubby without much outward growth so I can't really LST or even leaf tuck. There are 3 sets of shoots that i'm struggling to give ample light. Not sure when/if to increase power and/or change height. 2.9.2024: Day 21 from seed. End of week 3. Plant looks healthy but leaves aren't as flexible when compaired to prior days. Wouldn't say crispy or brittle, just a little firmer to the touch. No nutes given yet as the FFOF still has amendments the plant is using. First sign of sex showing too.

The smell when wet trimming the fans off is of sweet berrys, a little bit citrus and musky dank smell is the only way I can describe it. The drying is coming to an end, at the end of day 13 I broke a bud off that weighed a gram and had a smoke test, the flavours are there and it smooth smoke surprisingly but I think a cure will really bring the terps out.

I am just giving them Biobizz Bloom and Top-Max

I've been pulling the top fan leaves to stop the main stem growing any taller and repotted them into 4L pots, once they show roots I'll flip them over to flower. They've all outgrown their mutations but the apple fritter has a slight varigation.

Hi guys , Miss Blue keeps on flowering , she looks very nice, buds are not super dense but neither fluffy for sure, they're stretched out pretty good Don't know if she will stay alive for another week I'm cutting off a tester bud today.

400W LUCALOX HPS + 100W DIY purple led

Transplanting these this week.

Day 36 (30/06/19) she’s in the wild doing really well. Taking off nicely, and can’t wait to see how she does and how she takes to the outdoor space. All organic nutrients thanks to royal queen seeds! Will be back with an update soon. Thanks for following. Stay tuned

💜 Purple CousKush Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 9 🌿 No Drama. No Complaints. Just Beautiful Growth. Sometimes a plant gives you a story. Sometimes she gives you a problem to solve. And sometimes... she simply stands there looking absolutely beautiful and gives you nothing to complain about. Purple CousKush Pheno A is having one of those weeks. 💜 After last week's little reminder that even a good grower can occasionally miss a watering window 😂, this girl has completely put that chapter behind her. She's back to doing what she does. Growing. Building. Flowering. And doing it beautifully. The deep greens are still there. The flowering sites continue developing. The structure is looking stronger and more defined every week. And the whole plant has that feeling I love seeing at this stage: She's comfortable. There isn't anything I look at and think needs fixing. There isn't anything screaming for intervention. There isn't anything I want to change just for the sake of changing it. So this week, I'm doing something very simple. I'm stepping back. I'm watching. And I'm letting her shine. 🌸 Week 6 Flower – She's Finding Her Rhythm Purple CousKush Pheno A is now approximately 125 cm tall, and her overall architecture continues to be one of the things I really enjoy about this phenotype. She's tall enough to stand out in the room, but what really catches my attention isn't simply her height. It's the way she's using that structure. The branches are carrying flowering sites beautifully. The central structure continues developing alongside the side branches. And the flowers are becoming increasingly defined throughout the canopy. We're getting deeper into flowering now, and the plant is moving away from the explosive structural development of earlier weeks and increasingly toward flower production. And honestly? I like where she's going. Very much. 🌿 Deep Green & Beautifully Balanced The foliage is one of the first things I notice every time I look at her. That beautiful, deep green colour is still everywhere. The leaves look strong. The canopy looks healthy. And the plant has a very balanced appearance. There's no obvious nutritional drama. No major stress showing in the foliage. No reason for me to start chasing something that isn't actually a problem. She's simply green. Deep green. Healthy green. The kind of green that makes you look at a plant and think: "Yep. She's happy." 😂💚 And that's exactly what I want. 🌸 The Flowers Are Getting Serious The flowering sites continue developing beautifully. The buds are becoming more substantial, and the individual structures are starting to come together into more defined flowering clusters. The pistils remain prominent, creating that beautiful contrast against the darker foliage. And when you look closely, there's more and more happening inside those flowers every week. This is the stage where the plant starts becoming particularly rewarding to photograph. From a distance, you see the structure. Move closer... and suddenly there's another world happening inside every flower. Calyxes. Pistils. Resin. New layers of development appearing week after week. And Purple CousKush is giving us plenty to look at. 💜 The Name Is Starting To Feel Appropriate There's something particularly satisfying about watching a cultivar called Purple CousKush develop. We're obviously not going to write the harvest story before harvest. 😂 But there is already something about her appearance that makes the name feel appropriate. The structure. The flowers. The personality. And the way she's developing deeper into bloom. Whatever colours she ultimately decides to show us later in the journey, I'm perfectly happy to wait. That's another thing I've learned from this project: Don't force the story. Let the plant write it. If she gives us colours, beautiful. If she stays green, beautiful. If she surprises us with something completely different... even better. ✂️ After The Cleanup – Now We Leave Her Alone Last week we gave her a selective cleanup after she recovered from that accidental underwatering. That intervention was about removing unnecessary foliage and opening the structure. This week? Nothing dramatic. No need to go back in with the scissors. No need to keep manipulating her. She's got enough healthy foliage. She's got good flowering structure. She's got space. She's got light. She's got airflow. So now it's time for the most underrated part of cultivation: doing nothing. 😂 Sometimes knowing when to stop touching the plant is just as important as knowing when to intervene. She's doing beautifully. So let her do it. 💡 Let The Plant Use The Photons The Future of Grow Black Series lighting continues providing the primary light from above, with the Lumiflora under-canopy system adding another layer of illumination lower in the plant. At this stage, I'm particularly interested in watching how the flowers respond as they continue developing. The canopy has already been opened enough to improve the movement of light and air through the structure. Now the plant gets to take advantage of that environment. We don't need to constantly manipulate the canopy. The photons are already there. The plant is already capturing them. Now we simply watch what she does with that energy. And so far... she's turning it into some very beautiful flowers. 🌬️ A Balanced Plant Is A Happy Plant One of the things I appreciate most about Purple CousKush right now is the overall balance. The foliage. The structure. The flowering sites. The environment. Everything seems to be working together. That's what I'm looking for. Not perfection. Not some artificial idea of what a plant should look like. Just balance. Enough foliage to support photosynthesis. Enough open space for airflow. Enough light reaching through the structure. Enough flowering sites developing where they can make good use of that environment. And most importantly... a plant that looks like she isn't fighting anything. She's just growing. 🌿 One Week After The Lesson I also have to give this girl some credit. Last week she reminded me that watering mistakes happen. This week she basically said: "Okay. Are we finished talking about that now?" 😂 Yes, ma'am. We're finished. The important part is that she recovered beautifully and hasn't carried that moment forward. The plant is healthy. The flowers are developing. The leaves look excellent. And the overall progression is exactly where I want it. That's another reason I don't believe in panicking when something minor happens. Observe. Correct it. Give the plant time. Then watch. Sometimes the best evidence that everything is okay is simply what the plant does afterward. And Purple CousKush? She's doing just fine. 💧 Nutrition & Irrigation The flowering nutrition program continues without unnecessary changes. We're maintaining the established Plagron flowering approach and continuing to monitor the plant individually rather than changing things simply because another phenotype behaves differently. Current cultivation conditions remain around: 💧 pH: approximately 6.0 ⚡ EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 💦 Watering: approximately 1.3 L per plant / 24h ? Pot: 15 L The biggest change from last week isn't the numbers. It's the observation. After the little watering lesson, I'm paying close attention to her irrigation needs and making sure she doesn't have to ask for another drink quite so dramatically. 😂 Healthy dry-back? Fine. A wilted Purple CousKush waving at me? Message received. 🌡️ Environment The room continues running with the same stable flowering environment: ☀️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% 🌬️ CO₂: approximately 639 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 That consistency is becoming increasingly important as flowering progresses. The plants are now carrying substantial flowering structures, and keeping the environment predictable gives them the best opportunity to continue developing without unnecessary interruptions. Purple CousKush seems perfectly comfortable inside that environment. And when a plant is comfortable... I don't see a reason to complicate things. 🌸 Flowers, Structure & Potential This is where my curiosity really starts increasing. Purple CousKush Pheno A has already built a very respectable framework. Now we're watching that framework become flowers. The branches are carrying increasingly developed sites. The buds are becoming more pronounced. The foliage remains beautifully green. And the overall structure continues looking strong. We're getting closer to the point where the plant's final architecture will become much easier to judge. But we're not there yet. There's still plenty of development ahead. So I'm not going to predict the ending. I'm just going to enjoy watching her get there. 🔬 One Plant, One Phenotype, One Story This is one of the reasons I love documenting every individual plant in the 8×8 Adventure. If I simply photographed the entire room, I'd see a beautiful canopy. But when I isolate Purple CousKush Pheno A... I see her personality. She's energetic. She's tall. She's structurally beautiful. She's developing flowers consistently. And she's remarkably resilient. Last week gave us one little lesson. This week gives us something much simpler: consistency. And sometimes consistency is the most beautiful thing a plant can give you. 🔭 Looking Ahead – Let's See Where She Takes Us Now I'm genuinely curious about the next few weeks. How much more will those flowers swell? How much more resin will develop? How will the pistils progress? Will her colours change as she gets deeper into maturity? How will the final structure reveal itself? And ultimately... what is this particular Purple CousKush phenotype going to give us? I have no idea yet. And that's exactly how I like it. Because the whole point is to watch. Not predict. Not force. Not write the ending before the story is finished. Just watch her move. And she's moving beautifully. 💜 Final Thoughts – No Complaints Whatsoever I think sometimes we growers spend so much time talking about problems that we forget to celebrate the weeks where there simply aren't any. So let's celebrate this one. Purple CousKush Pheno A is doing beautifully. She's got those deep, deep greens I love. She's carrying beautiful flowers. Her bud structure is developing nicely. She's growing consistently. She's recovered completely from last week's little watering lesson. The canopy is balanced. The plant looks comfortable. And honestly... I have no complaints. None. She's simply doing her thing. And she's doing it beautifully. That's all I really want from her right now. Keep growing. Keep building. Keep flowering. Keep showing me what your genetics decided to become. And I'll keep watching. Because every week she gives me another reason to look twice. Purple CousKush Pheno A doesn't need a dramatic story this week. She doesn't need a problem. She doesn't need a big intervention. She just needs her spotlight. And she deserves it. 💜✨ A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for these beautiful Purple CousKush genetics, Plagron for the nutrition, Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting, Lumiflora for bringing additional light beneath the canopy, TrolMaster for environmental control, and of course to everyone following this crazy 8×8 Adventure on GrowDiaries. Every phenotype has her own personality. Every week adds another chapter. And Purple CousKush Pheno A? She's simply moving forward. Beautifully. Consistently. And without giving me anything to complain about. So let's give this girl the spotlight one more time. Deep green. Beautiful flowers. Beautiful structure. No complaints. 💜🌿✨ Until next week... Keep doing your thing, Purple CousKush. I'll be watching. Growers love and happy growing! 🌱💚

2 weeks have passed, the girl has a little too much nutrients, but she will get through it :) the girl doesn't seem to be tall, I think she will be more like a bush :) everything looks good, good luck to everyone!

Week 24 January - 30 January

This week has gone well most the plants looking healthy my six shooter is looking a little but yellow other than that I carn't complain. Will be trying some calmag see it that helps her out. Seeing and smelling some interesting things this week. The Quick #1 is frosting us nicely and smelling really nice. I grew it outdoors last year and they did alright but this one looks like its going to be a lot nice. The original Russian is fattening up same with the zkittles og 👌 I ended up topping one of the Lemon Ak's and she has turned in to a intresting little Bush. The stardawg is a tiny stinkin Christmas tree! Had the missile 33 outside for the last 2 weeks she is going to be the biggest plant out of the lot of them, she still hasn't started flowering at all yet but is a nice looking bush! Will bring her in when some of the other are finished and I have room in my tiny tent. Hope everyone's gardens are doing well, peace 🍁 Will take pictures of each individual plant again soon. Still not harvested anything

EDIT: I thought the girls were done growing verticaly but i guess not. I measured at 51cm 2 times in a row. I just went to check and theyre 58 to 60cm and still going. (Day 37) Growth: This week vertical growth slowed down while the branches are catching up. I had a nitrogen deficiency on all the girls. I still go by the water,water,feed schedule and i usually have 2 dry days between every watering. So they only had 3 feedings of Terra Vega all this time. I think ill do water feed water now that flowering has begun. Lets hope these girls will put on some weight 😁 I added 1 100W cob and will be adding more the coming months. I also have a tent on the way. Training: I defoliated the 4 girls that are in flower and stopped applying LST. #5 (1 week behind) on the other hand got manhandled lol. I accidentally broke off the top and she got supercropped and bounces back within hours. Nutrients: 2ml Canna Terra Vega>>>1.5ml Canna Terra Vega 1ml Canna Terra Flores 2.5ml Cannazym 1x per week

*Week 4 Flower 09/24* Both Mimosa girls appear to be running fine with Mimosa (1) running a little behind but is catching up accordingly. Small oversight in early growth resulted in a minor stunt but she is improving dramatically. Water Feed has increased by half a gallon ( 1gallon clean - .5 gallon nute feed) *Week 4 Flower 09/28 - Mid week update* Both plants are flowering accordingly - Mimosa (1) is a bit taller then Mimosa (2) Buds are becoming dense and covered in trichomes. No deficiencies - No areas of concern - Potassium and Phosphate feeds continue *Week 5 Flower end of week recap - 09/30* Both Mimosa's are flowering nicely - Budsites covered in frosty trichomes. Mimosa (2) looks shorter but that is because her COLA was tied down to expose bottom budsites.

Big Buds, easy to harvest. This is my first haze plant. I cloned 22, but all died. The taste: 60% incense,30% peach, 10% lemon(or something citrus).
