Week 8, Day 56, Day 12 of Flower. Well the girls are doing nicely again, however PK#2 is still smaller than PK#1. PK1 is 18” tall and PK2 is only 14” tall. Seeds came from same package, but PK2 sprouted 8 hours later. Both are receiving the same nutes. I did notice this morning that she did start to stretch since seeing her last night. All in all things are going well. I did notice a few fan leaves with a slight purpling so I will try adding a little more CaliMagic on the next feed. They are currently receiving 200ppm. Of CaliMagic. The last feeding was 660ppm total nutes, but 950ppm 1.9EC in the run-off so I gave them some Phed water to help clear some of the nutes building up in the media on the next feed which went down to 650ppm 1.3EC in the run-off. Thinking about doing a flush with some Florakleen, or should I wait until flush time at week 7 and 8 of flower when Trichomes are hopefully milky. All comments and suggestions welcome.

🍮 Chem Brûlée – Pheno A Week 10 | Her Own Kind of Shine ❄️🌸✨ Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And this girl... She's still shining. Not because she's trying to be like anybody else. Not because she's following some predetermined script. But because Chem Brûlée Pheno A has developed a personality all of her own. She's unique. She's distinctive. And the further we move into flower, the more that individuality becomes obvious. Every week, I look at her and think: "Okay... let's see where you're going next." And honestly? I have no idea exactly where she's going. But I'm really enjoying the journey. So this week, we're keeping things simple. We're watching. We're supporting. We're keeping the environment as stable as possible. We're letting the LEDs keep throwing photons into the jungle. And most importantly... We're giving this beautiful girl the spotlight. 🍮❄️🌸 🌱 Week 10 – Still Writing Her Own Story Chem Brûlée Pheno A is sitting at approximately 126 cm, and by now her overall character is pretty unmistakable. She's not the plant that makes you stop because she's enormous. She's not trying to win some imaginary height competition. She's simply developed into her own version of Chem Brûlée. And that's exactly what makes phenotype hunting so interesting. You start with a genetic name. Then you grow the plant. And eventually, the plant starts telling you what that name means in her particular case. This girl has definitely introduced herself. She's got her own structure. Her own flower formation. Her own expression. Her own rhythm. And I like it. Very much. 🌸 The Flowers Keep Getting More Beautiful The biggest change this week is, once again, happening where it matters most: the flowers. They're becoming more established. More defined. More substantial. And those beautiful white hairs continue standing proudly out from the developing buds. The photographs really capture that progression. We're no longer looking at tiny early flowering sites. We're watching proper flower structures develop throughout the plant. And there's something really satisfying about seeing those individual flowers slowly becoming more recognizable week after week. They're still developing. There's still plenty of time for them to change. But the direction is beautiful. And I genuinely want to see where she takes them. 🌸?❄️ ❄️ And Yes... She's Still Bringing the Frost The frost is also becoming increasingly noticeable. That developing resin coverage gives the flowers another layer of character, especially when you get the camera close. This is where photography becomes such a fantastic part of the grow. From across the room, you see: Chem Brûlée. Through the macro lens, you see: Chem Brûlée Pheno A. The little details start appearing. The trichome-covered surfaces. The pistils. The sugar leaves. The developing flower structure. Suddenly, the phenotype becomes much more than a plant in a pot. She becomes a collection of tiny details that you can follow from week to week. And that's exactly what I love about this diary. 📸❄️ 💡 Let's Talk About Photons Again Because this week, just like throughout the other individual diaries, I want to give some attention to something that we can't actually see... the photons. We see the LEDs. We see the flowers. We see the leaves. But we don't see the photons travelling between them. And yet those photons are one of the fundamental pieces of this entire story. The Future of Grow Black Series LEDs are essentially creating our artificial sun. Photons are being emitted from the fixtures and travelling into the canopy. The leaves intercept that light. Photosynthesis turns captured light energy into chemical energy. And that energy supports the plant's ongoing growth and development. So when I look at Chem Brûlée's beautiful green foliage and developing flowers, I'm also looking at the visible result of an enormous amount of invisible work happening every day. That's pretty damn cool. 💡🌿 ☀️ The Artificial Sun Above Her The Future of Grow lighting is doing something particularly interesting in this room because we're not growing just one plant. We're growing twelve different genetic expressions under the same general artificial sun. The photons don't care which cultivar they're reaching. They simply arrive. Then the genetics respond. And that's where the experiment becomes fascinating. One plant becomes compact. Another stretches. One develops a particular flower structure. Another produces something completely different. One phenotype takes her time. Another seems to have somewhere very important to be. 😂 Same room. Same general lighting philosophy. Different genetic responses. And Chem Brûlée Pheno A? She's giving us her answer. And I really like what I'm seeing. 💡 Photons Are Part of the Whole Environment And I don't look at light as something that exists separately from the rest of the room. The photons interact with everything. More available light influences plant demand. Plant demand influences water use and nutrient uptake. Light contributes to the energy balance of the canopy. The canopy influences temperature and humidity around the foliage. And the structure of the plant determines how efficiently that light can move through it. It's all connected. That's why I love the idea of thinking about the grow as a complete system rather than a collection of individual numbers. Light. Temperature. Humidity. CO₂. Water. Nutrition. Root-zone conditions. Plant structure. Everything talks to everything else. And the photons are right in the middle of that conversation. 💡🌿🌸 🌿 She's Becoming More Herself Every Week This is probably my favourite thing about this phenotype right now. She's becoming more recognizable. Not necessarily because she's changing dramatically from one week to the next. But because the small characteristics are becoming stronger. Her flower structure. Her pistils. Her resin. Her architecture. Her overall expression. It's like watching a photograph slowly come into focus. At the beginning of the grow, there were possibilities. Now? We're getting an increasingly clear picture of who she is. And she's definitely unique. That's what I wanted from this project. Not twelve identical plants. I wanted to see what happens when different genetics and phenotypes are given the same opportunity. And Chem Brûlée Pheno A is giving us a very interesting answer. 🌡️ Keeping the Room Steady The room remains broadly consistent this week. Current conditions are approximately: 🌡️ Day temperature: 29.9°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 RH: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: ~639 ppm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🥥 Substrate temperature: 26°C 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 💦 Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h ? Pot size: 15 L 📏 Height: ~126 cm Summer is still summer, of course. 😂☀️ Keeping temperatures perfectly locked isn't always realistic when the outside world is doing its own thing. So the goal isn't obsessing over every tiny movement. It's maintaining a stable enough environment that the plants can continue doing their work without unnecessary stress. And right now? Chem Brûlée appears perfectly happy to keep working. ⚗️ Nutrition – Consistency Wins Again We're also keeping the feeding strategy consistent. Current nutrition remains: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L With pH adjustment as required. Current solution is approximately: pH 6.0 EC ~2.0 mS/cm And again... there's no reason to change something simply because another week has passed. She's growing. She's flowering. She's developing resin. She's maintaining that beautiful foliage. So we'll continue observing rather than constantly intervening. Sometimes consistency is the most useful thing a grower can provide. 💨 Let the Canopy Breathe As flowering continues, we're naturally paying attention to canopy density and airflow. The plant has plenty of foliage, but we're not interested in removing leaves simply because they're there. Healthy leaves are working. They're capturing photons. They're contributing to photosynthesis. They're part of the plant's engine. So any canopy management is about purpose. If something becomes unnecessarily crowded, we'll look at it. If something is blocking an important area, we'll consider it. But otherwise? Let her work. The objective isn't to create the emptiest plant possible. It's to create a healthy, functional canopy where light, air and plant structure can work together. 📸 Behind the Lens And once again... Chem Brûlée Pheno A is making the camera very happy. 😂📸 The close-ups are becoming increasingly rewarding. Those white hairs are beautiful. The flower formation is becoming more obvious. The resin coverage is developing. And the structure of the plant is becoming easier to appreciate. Then you step back... and you see the whole girl. That's the magic of documenting a plant over time. One photograph shows a moment. Ten weeks of photographs show a story. And hers is becoming a very interesting one. 🍮 Unique Is the Word If I had to choose one word for Chem Brûlée Pheno A this week? Unique. She's not trying to fit a template. She's not trying to look like another phenotype. She's not trying to follow somebody else's timeline. She's simply expressing herself. And I really like that. Because when you have twelve plants in the same room, you quickly learn that there isn't one single definition of "beautiful." There's tall. There's short. There's compact. There's stretched. There's dense. There's open. There's fast. There's slow. And then there are plants like this one... where you stop comparing entirely. You simply look at her and say: "That's you." And I think that's where Chem Brûlée Pheno A is now. 🔮 Looking Ahead – Where Are You Going, Girl? And now I'm genuinely curious. Where does she go from here? How much more will those flowers develop? How much more will the resin build? How will the structure change as the flowers continue to mature? How will her final expression compare with what we imagined back when she was just a small plant? I don't know yet. And that's the fun part. We're not at the end of the story. We're somewhere in the middle... watching the next chapter unfold. So for now, I'm looking for: 🌸 Continued flower development ? Further pistil development ❄️ Increasing resin coverage 🌿 Healthy foliage 💡 Efficient use of the available photons 💨 Good airflow through the canopy 📈 Increasing flower definition and density And then? We'll see. 💭 Final Thoughts – Let Her Shine Chem Brûlée Pheno A is becoming one of those plants where I don't really want to predict too much. I want to watch. Because she's already shown us that she's different. She's unique. She's developing beautifully. Her flowers are taking shape. Those white hairs are becoming one of her most recognizable features. The frost is building. The canopy is working. And above everything... she's becoming herself. That's what I love about this project. We provide the environment. We provide the water. We provide the nutrition. We provide the artificial sun. We fill the room with photons. And then the plant takes all of that... and writes her own story. Chem Brûlée Pheno A is writing hers in a language I really like. 🍮🌸❄️ So let's not rush her. Let's not force her. Let's not try to make her something else. Let's simply give her the conditions she needs... and let her shine. The Future of Grow LEDs keep sending those photons. The Lumiflora lighting keeps helping illuminate the deeper parts of the garden. The environment keeps doing its job. And Chem Brûlée? She's doing hers. Beautifully. Uniquely. And completely her own way. Let's see where she goes. 🍮❄️🔥 🙏 Thank You As always, a huge thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚 Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the place to document this journey and share the details of these twelve very different stories. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Chem Brûlée genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore just how much personality can exist within individual phenotypes. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden with the growing media and nutrition throughout the adventure. Thank you to Future of Grow for providing the Black Series LEDs that keep our artificial sun shining and those photons flying through the jungle. 💡☀️🌿 And a special thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the inner and lower areas of the canopy and making our relationship with photons a little more three-dimensional. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us keep track of the environment behind the scenes. And of course... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person who stops by simply to see how the girls are doing. This adventure wouldn't be the same without you. Twelve plants. One room. One environment. Millions upon millions of photons. And twelve completely different stories. This one belongs to Chem Brûlée Pheno A. She's unique. She's beautiful. She's developing. And she's showing us more of herself every week. So let's keep watching. Let's keep learning. Let's keep those photons flying. And most importantly... let's make this beautiful girl shine. 🍮🌸❄️💡🔥 Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿📸🍮❄️

Hello. This is the end of week 3 and the beginning of week 4 of veg. The plants are recovering from their repotting and topping yesterday. I also turned on the light to take their pictures, so, that's why they look a little wilty. These plants will be put in my other grow room with the 3 Gorilla Cookies to fill up the 8 spots. This tent will have Kush Mints in it next week. I had males in the other grow room this spring, so it will need a good vacuuming and cleaning before these plant can go in there. I'll get to that this week. The Gorilla Cookies are 3 year old seeds. They are only a week behind the Grapes strain, but they are so much smaller. I started a new underground comic book for your enjoyment... It's Weirdo #22. OK. Have Fun. Chuck.

Approximately day 115 since seed touched soil. Girls got light trim and went for drying. Think it will be 100 g total from all 3 plants, but this strain surprised me. I tried this house Bubblegum, just in very bad conditions, all brought very smelly buds, but AK still think are better, The strain of this summer for me personally. Happy Growing !!!

The buds continue to grow, showing no signs of stopping, but the leaves get old. This week i have watered bananas. It's rain. I fear the buds will be damaged. Maybe i will have to harvest soon. THANKYOU. SEE YOU NEXT WEEK.

Herrrrro gang! Welcome to another week of Daank's grow! 8/2: Brought back the Great White. I was reading that it works well in conjunction with other root excelurators, like Rapid Start. I got 2 more temp/humidity sensors for the tent. It allows me to keep track of 100% of what is really going on, I find it to take away worry (b/c temps are very important!). Today was a "eureka!" moment in terms of understanding run-off pH and it's value to telling the grower how healthy the plant is and what nutes may, or may not, be needed. I also got some new LED glasses so I don't burn my fucking corneas when tending to the garden - they are phenomenal and I suggest them if you grow with an LED. Check the videos and photos. Pistils are growing rapidly and baby budlets are starting to form. I'm actually getting a nice subtle purple color - it's very neat. Today's run-off pH was 6.3, and I gave it 6.3 for water - so that's a good sign (I bounce the pH all around from 5.5-6.3). I'll keep track of this moving forward in the diary. Minor defoliation. ***Pro-Tip: If you're wondering what the run-off should be... around +.5/-.5 of what you put in is good. But this also might not mean anything... so many different opinions on the web. ****: My Spotify Playlist for my plants: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0ydAFulbzDlqFr5WIZdfM1?si=r5M5H83BSQ6tOE5pk9Bg4Q Day 38 - 8/4: Lil'budlet's are poppin' up all over. By the end of this week I assume we'll be in full swing. Day 39: I have ordered new nutes, Advanced Nutrients. The reviews, photos, and research all point to using this for the best results. I found them to be a bit expensive, but if I can always get perfect pH values without much of a hassle... I'm down. They will be here by end of the week and I'll transition that over this weekend. I can't wait. Day 40: 8/6 - Advanced Nutrient nutes arrive today. Watering will be a pleasure. The plants look great. The buds are real. Small smell. Trimmed last night quite a bit for bud production. They love George Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue". It perks 'em up.

This week I added 9 ml of nutrient per gal of water to prepare for switching to flowering. Grow 5 inches this week getting ready to start flowering. I lowered the light to eight inches which really had these plants growing faster and thicker.

6/22 Some pictures didn't upload but that's probably a good thing. As long as the video went up its good. I need to take less pictures. I'm glad I watered the plants in the back with a premixed gallon last night as we didnt get nearly the rain I thought we would. It's small showers throughout the day. The plants are getting enormous. A couple have revegged. Mostly the 10th planet. The others aren't anywhere near as impacted. Boy are some of these stalks thick. I chose to keep a couple plants that could be grown naturally without topping or fimming. I like to see the structure of the tree bit with humidity like this 98%rh it's easy to get botrytis. That's why it's good sometimes to have multiple bid sites so your proverbial eggs aren't all in one basket. But you do end up with a massive cola. I think that mk ultra with the big fan leavescis just going to be one giant bud. That's what it's looking like. Oh and today is the summer solstice. Longest day of the year. 6/23 WATERED EVERYTHING. USED FIVE AND A HALF GALLONS. EVERYTHING GOT AT LEAST A HALF GALLON. Despite the rain we got and the bags still having some heft I decided to water. It's 80 at 9am. It's supposed to he in the upper 90's today and coukd break 100° tomorrow. I hate that the grow bags are black. That's way to hot for the plants. I should find some empty soil bags and wrap the black fabric for a couple days. A sunscreen might help but I doubt much. We'll see how it goes. 6/24 It's 90° at 9am. It's supposed to break 100° amd stay there a while. Up to 106°. Plants looked awesome this morning. I wasn't sure what I'd find. Today is the worst of the days. If it didn't break 100 yesterday it was damn close all day and the girls look GREAT. I WATERED AGAIN TODAY. I USED EITHER 5.5 OR 6.5 GALLONS TO WATER THE GARDEN. It was nice cool well water too so they should like that. Branches are getting longer and I'm training as the get bigger. I need to put up the trellis but I'm not doing it in this heat.

Las podas han retrasado el crecimiento bastante. Creo que las plantas acabarán por rellenar todo el espacio pero no estoy seguro. Ahora se ven bien los pelos blancos.
