๐Ÿ’œ 8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Week 12 Purple Haze by Zamnesia โ€“ Pheno B The Little Frosty Queen Is Still Shiningโ€ฆ Even When She Hides From The Camera ๐Ÿ˜‚โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ Welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And... well... I have a small confession to make. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ Somehow... SOMEHOW... I managed to miss the individual photographs of our Purple Haze Pheno B this week. Again. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚ I know. I know. After all the talk about how much I love documenting these girls, here we are... with no dedicated photo stack of our little Frosty Queen. Apparently, she decided: "You've photographed my sister enough. This week, I'll be mysterious." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œโ„๏ธ But before anyone thinks she's disappeared... she hasn't. She's right there in the room. She's growing. She's beautiful. She's developing. She's doing exactly what she has been doing throughout this entire adventure. And thankfully, we do have general room photographs and a video showing the whole 8ร—8. So if you look closely... you can still find our little Purple Haze girl in there. ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ And I may still find the missing photographs. I've been digging through different folders because I genuinely believe I took them. So... if they suddenly appear from some mysterious photographic dimension... I'll come back and update this week with her individual photographs. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ For now, though... we work with what we have. And honestly? Even without the dedicated portraits... I know this girl. She's still beautiful. She's still shining. She's still growing. She's still doing her thing. She's simply doing it a little slower than her sister. And that's perfectly okay. So let's give our little Frosty Queen the spotlight anyway. โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฑ WEEK 12 โ€“ THE GIRL WHO DOESN'T NEED TO RUSH โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Purple Haze Pheno B continues to be exactly who she has shown us throughout this adventure. Compact. Beautiful. Frosty. And... slow. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ Especially when you put her next to her sister. Purple Haze Pheno A has apparently discovered the accelerator pedal and refuses to let go. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿš€ Pheno B? She's driving with the windows down and enjoying the scenery. ๐Ÿ˜‚ And that's okay. Because when I look at Pheno B, I don't see a plant that's failing to keep up. I see a plant following her own rhythm. She's developing. She's flowering. She's continuing to build. She's maintaining her beautiful appearance. And she's slowly becoming more substantial. She's simply doing it on her own timetable. That's one of the most important things this 8ร—8 Adventure continues to teach me. Not every plant needs to move at the same speed. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’œ SMALLER THAN HER SISTER โ€“ BUT STILL A BEAUTY โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ There's no question about it. Purple Haze Pheno B is smaller than her sister. And right now, she's also somewhat behind her in visible flowering development. But that's not a criticism. It's an observation. And there's a huge difference. Her sister is moving extremely quickly. The flowers are becoming enormous. The week-to-week changes are dramatic. Pheno B is taking a different road. She's more compact. She's slower. She's developing at a more measured pace. And yet... she's beautiful. That's what matters. Because if I walked into the room without knowing which plant was which, I wouldn't look at her and think: "What's wrong with this plant?" I'd look at her and think: "There's our little Purple Haze." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ She has her own appearance. Her own structure. Her own rhythm. Her own identity. And that's exactly what we want to document. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ„๏ธ THE FROSTY QUEEN IS STILL FROSTY โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ If there's one characteristic that has remained impossible to ignore with this girl... it's the frost. โ„๏ธโ„๏ธโ„๏ธ Even without this week's individual macro session, I know what I'm seeing when I look at her in the room. That beautiful resin-covered character is still there. The flowers continue developing. The surrounding sugar leaves continue carrying that frosty appearance. And when the room lighting hits her from the right angle... she catches the light beautifully. She's not the biggest girl. She's not the fastest. But she has something that makes you stop. You see her. You look closer. And there she is. Our little Frosty Queen. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‘ That's her identity now. And honestly... I wouldn't change it. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘ญ TWO SISTERS โ€“ TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT CLOCKS โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The contrast between Purple Haze Pheno A and Pheno B continues to be one of my favourite things about this project. Same genetic line. Same room. Same lighting. Same general environment. Same irrigation philosophy. Same nutritional foundation. And yet... completely different development speeds. Pheno A is flying. ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ Pheno B is cruising. ๐Ÿš—๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ˜‚ And that's exactly why having both in the same room is so valuable. If I only had one Purple Haze plant, I might look at her development and think: "This is how Purple Haze behaves." But because we have two phenotypes sharing the same environment... we can see that there isn't necessarily one single expression. There are differences. There are personalities. There are rhythms. There are individual plants. And Pheno B is giving us a beautiful example of that. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ SLOW DOESN'T MEAN STOPPED โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This is something I want to repeat because it is important. She's slower. She's not stopped. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ There's a massive difference. She's still developing flowers. She's still changing. She's still growing. She's still using the environment. She's still building. She's simply doing it more slowly than the girl standing beside her. And honestly? That's okay. Plants don't read our weekly schedules. They don't know that we've labelled something "Week 12." They don't look at the diary and think: "Shit, better hurry up." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“–๐ŸŒฟ They have their own biological timing. And this girl has made her timing pretty obvious. She takes her time. She does her thing. And eventually... she gets there. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ THE GREAT PHOTO HUNT โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Now... let's talk about the elephant in the room. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ Where the hell are her photographs? I genuinely think I took them. I've been looking through folders. Different folders. Old folders. New folders. Folders that apparently contain everything except the photographs I'm actually looking for. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ—‚๏ธ๐Ÿ“ธ So I'm still hunting. And if I find them... I'll come back and update this week's diary with her individual photographs. Because she deserves them. But for now, we have the general room photographs. And we also have a video showing the entire room. And she's in there. You can see her. You can find her. You just need to play: "Where's Purple Haze Pheno B?" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”Ž๐Ÿ’œ It's basically a grow-room version of Where's Wally. Except Wally is a frosty little Purple Haze plant. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œโ„๏ธ And honestly... I'm sorry, girl. You deserved your own portrait session this week. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŽฅ SOMETIMES THE WHOLE ROOM TELLS THE STORY โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The funny thing is... although I always prefer having dedicated photographs of each phenotype, the general room photographs and video actually give us something different. They show context. They show where she sits. They show her relationship with the rest of the canopy. They show the scale of the room. And they remind us of something important: This isn't twelve separate grows. It's one 8ร—8 environment. Twelve individual plants living inside it. And Purple Haze Pheno B is part of that larger picture. She's there. She's growing. She's developing. She's simply not standing in front of the camera this week saying: "Look at me." ๐Ÿ˜‚ Maybe she's shy. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ก SAME PHOTONS โ€“ DIFFERENT RESPONSE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The environment hasn't changed specifically for her. The upgraded lighting remains in place. The two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures continue providing the extra lighting capacity. We've kept the output controlled rather than simply running everything at maximum. We're still working around: ๐Ÿ’ก ~59% power from the plug with approximately: โ˜€๏ธ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy and naturally varying intensity according to height and position. And Pheno B is receiving those same photons. Just like her sister. Just like the rest of the room. But look at the result. Her response is different. Her development speed is different. Her structure is different. Her timing is different. And that's the beautiful part. The photons are the same. The plant's interpretation isn't. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ˜€๏ธ MORE LIGHTING CAPABILITY โ€“ CONTROLLED โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ I continue to really like the additional lighting setup. The point was never simply: "Let's make the room as bright as physically possible." ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ The point was to increase our capability. More available lighting. More flexibility. More control. And then find the level that makes sense for the room. The additional Future of Grow fixtures gave us that headroom. We don't have to run them flat out. We can control the output. And that means we have more capability without automatically turning that capability into wasted electricity. Purple Haze Pheno B gets the same opportunity as everyone else. What she does with that opportunity? That's her story. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ THE FLOWERS ARE STILL MOVING โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Even without the dedicated photographs this week, the general room images and the video show us something important. She's still developing. She's not suddenly standing still because her sister is moving faster. She's still part of the flowering progression. The structure is continuing to develop. The flowers are continuing to gain definition. And her overall appearance remains beautiful. That's what I want to emphasize. We shouldn't confuse: "not moving as quickly as Pheno A" with: "not progressing." Those are completely different statements. Pheno B is progressing. She's just doing it at her own speed. And that's okay. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โš—๏ธ NUTRITION โ€“ NOW WE START EASING BACK โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ As we move further into the later stages of the flowering cycle, we're also beginning to change the nutritional approach. And this is something I personally prefer to do gradually. I don't like the idea of working with mineral nutrition and suddenly going: "Right. Zero everything tomorrow." ๐Ÿ˜‚ That's just not how I prefer to approach the transition. Instead, I like to start reducing the nutritional input progressively as the plants move toward their final stages. Small steps. Controlled changes. Watching the plants. Allowing the transition to happen rather than slamming the door shut overnight. And that's what we're beginning to do across the room. Pheno B is included in that gradual transition. We're not trying to force her because she's slower. We're simply allowing the entire room to move forward while continuing to observe each plant individually. Her development may be slower than her sister's... but her needs are still her needs. And that's something I always want to respect. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒก๏ธ WEEK 12 โ€“ ROOM CONDITIONS โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The room continues to remain broadly stable around: ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature: ~26.5ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature: ~26ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง RH: ~61% ๐ŸŒฑ Substrate temperature: ~25ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ฆ Nutrient solution: ~25ยฐC โš—๏ธ pH: ~6.02 ๐Ÿ’จ COโ‚‚: ~693 ppm ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule: 12/12 ๐Ÿ’ง Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h ? Pot size: 15 L The important thing here is that the room remains the room. We're not changing everything because one plant is slower. We're maintaining the overall environment while paying attention to the individual responses. And Purple Haze Pheno B continues to tell us: "I'm good. Just give me time." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ Fair enough, girl. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ DOING LESS โ€“ SEEING MORE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This is becoming one of the biggest themes of the 8ร—8 Adventure. Earlier in the grow, there was plenty to do. Training. Canopy management. Defoliation. Positioning. Adjustments. Decisions. Now? A lot of the job is observation. And I actually love that. Because when the plants are healthy and developing, you don't need to invent work. You need to pay attention. Look. Measure. Listen. Watch. And if something is needed... respond. Otherwise? Let the plant grow. Purple Haze Pheno B doesn't need me constantly touching her. She needs time. And she's getting it. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’œ HER SISTER MAY BE FLYING โ€“ SHE'S STILL SHINING โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This is probably the biggest thing I want to leave with everyone this week. Yes... Pheno A is absolutely flying. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ”ฅ Her flowers are becoming enormous. Her weekly changes are dramatic. She's moving incredibly quickly. But that doesn't make Pheno B less interesting. Quite the opposite. Pheno B gives us the comparison. She's showing us another expression. Another pace. Another architecture. Another flowering rhythm. And when you put both girls into the same room... that's when the experiment really comes alive. One says: "Let's go!" The other says: "Relax." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ And both are beautiful. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฌ THIS IS WHY THE 8ร—8 ADVENTURE EXISTS โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This is exactly why I wanted to run these plants together. Not to prove that one phenotype is better. Not to make every plant behave identically. But to watch what happens when different plants receive a shared environment. The room becomes our constant. The genetics become the variable. And the plants provide the answers. Purple Haze Pheno B is giving us a particularly interesting answer. She's smaller. She's slower. She's frosty. She's compact. She's beautiful. And she's completely herself. That's enough. More than enough. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ THE LITTLE FROSTY QUEEN STILL DESERVES THE CROWN โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Even without the photographs... I'm not taking the crown away from her. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘โ„๏ธ Because she continues to shine. She's not the biggest girl. She's not the fastest. She's not trying to compete. But she has her own presence. She has her own look. And when you know the plants well enough... you can spot her. You know her structure. You know her rhythm. You know that frost. You know that little compact personality. She's become recognizable. And that's one of the coolest parts of following a plant for twelve weeks. You stop seeing a label. You start seeing a personality. Purple Haze Pheno B. The little Frosty Queen. ๐Ÿ’œโ„๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฎ WHAT COMES NEXT? โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ More development. More flowers. More resin. More evolution. And hopefully... more photographs. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ I'm going to keep looking. And if I find her missing photographs hiding somewhere inside the chaos of my folders... they're coming straight into this diary. But even without them, the journey continues. We'll keep watching her through the general room photographs. We'll keep watching the videos. We'll keep watching the plant itself. And most importantly... we'll let her decide her own pace. No rushing. No forcing. No pretending she's moving at the same speed as her sister. She's not. And that's perfectly fine. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ญ FINAL THOUGHTS โ€“ STILL SHINING WITHOUT THE SPOTLIGHT โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Week 12.

She's simply doing it at a slower pace than her sister. And this week... we somehow managed to forget her photographs. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ My apologies to everyone following her diary. And especially to the little Queen herself. If I find those photographs hiding somewhere in the endless folder jungle... I'll update this week. Until then, we have the general room photographs and the video showing the whole 8ร—8, where our little girl is still there doing exactly what she's supposed to be doing. And honestly? That's what matters. Because the plant doesn't stop being beautiful just because I forgot to take her portrait. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ She's still shining. She's still evolving. She's still catching photons. She's still building flowers. She's still showing that beautiful frosty expression. And she's still giving us one of the most interesting contrasts in the entire room. Her sister is flying. Pheno B is taking the scenic route. But both are telling us something valuable. Same genetic family. Different expression. Same room. Different rhythm. Same photons. Different response. And that's the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟโ„๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‘ So keep shining, little Frosty Queen. Take your time. Keep building. Keep doing your thing. We'll be watching. And next week...

Another straight forward week. Biggest problem i am having is clean my arms every time i do anything. She's a frosty tent. The smell is kicking in too. The grandmommy just smells so good . Been smoking only this pretty much for the last year, packs a punch and tastes amazing. But looking forward to the gelato nice and frosty as well just not quite as much as the gmp

Ok just finnished a blunt of this a out an hour ago, and I do not smoke blunts lol But it seems only right too do a real smoked reveiw , So the fbt7 has been dry now for about 2 weeks and in a jar and today was the day too take the first bud too try so I rolled a fat one " fat one in photos lol , So for me the flavour just isn't there yet and am hoping that will come after a cure , So I smoked this all too my self and qiukly , Within a few minutes I went white as a ghost as was twitching the the corner hehehe, This is very strong bud and I would go as far as saying it's probably the strongest bud I've had in years , I am what I would describe as a joker smoker , as I turn my bud into oils and do not smoke it , But any serious cannabis smoker will absolutely love this strain , Well done fast buds and thank you :)

Welcome back friends. The two automatic ladies grow up healthy and beautiful. The Bio fertilizers and bio nutrients I am using I must say are a bomb. praise to bionova, biocanna and zamnesia. Unfortunately I will not be able to taste my girls, for reasons of force majeure. But my crew is ready as always to come to help. A misfortune that makes me sad, but more determined than ever

July 20: smoke arrived this morning to go with our heat wave. Awesome. Extra watering, misting air, and wetting the sides of the grow bags with hose water to keep things cooler and hydrated. So far so good in the heat. Did foliar spray of Extreme Blend and potassium silicate. Also note that for all my grows I use apple cider vinegar for pH adjustment and a Dr Bronners liquid soap as a wetting agent (surfactant). Euphoria is doing great, but to ensure that it finishes early enough for this latitude (53N) where the UV light gets very weak after mid-August, Iโ€™m starting the force flowering tonight. Already starting to flower but I want a strong flower set and as much flower growth under strong sunlight as possible. Force flowering schedule is 2-3 weeks of in dark garage at 9 pm followed by 730 nm far red light and then back out at 7 am. The light initiates dark mode 2 h faster so itโ€™s like having a 26 h day. Good trick use as a bloom booster, also moves up the finish 2-4 weeks. So, 10+2 is 12 h dark and 14 h daylight. Might sound bogus but it works. July 21: first night of force flowering caused a big stretch. Notably stretched after darkness in hot garage overnight. Hot outside overnight too but was much hotter inside garage and recorded here as 24 C. Seems okay and high overnight temperature might be ideal at this early flowering stage. Warm overnight temperatures continue for a few more days. July 22: record hot overnight low forecast for tonight of 24 C and feels like 27 C with humidity. Wow, that is really incredible for here and 13 C above historic average. July 26: six days into flowering and she is doing fine. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

The bush has been moving for 2 weeks now and I have no opportunity to take detailed photos. The grow report is being supplemented after 3 months.

easy to grow, brings big buds, you can do nearly anything you want with this strain, i made some strange shapes with it, plant keeps throwing its bud. good quality harvest. i smoked it then it was fresh and now after +4wks curing it still tastes very good. in my opinion its not needed to cure for long period to achieve better taste

18/09/2022 - 42 days since my little girl sprouted from seeds๐ŸŒฑ The second week of flowering of my Mandarine XL ๐ŸŠ๐ŸŠ๐ŸŠ Nutrients: Jungle Indabox - the girl responded well to the nutrient change, so I continue to feed the same as last week, when I set the nutrients for flowering Jungle Environ X - bud stimulators ๐ŸŒผ I am giving Advanced Nutrients - bud stimulators, Bud Ignitor for the last time this week Atami - ATA Calmag - it is recommended to use Calmag when growing under LED lights Training: LST: just a slight LST, I attached some small twigs with string so that more light shines on them ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’ก Defoliation: I did a bigger defoliation in the middle of the week so that the girl could breathe well and the big leaves wouldn't shade the twigs ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿƒ Light: Mars Hydro TS1000, the girls are doing amazing under this great light, I can see a big difference compared to my past results ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’“ The girl is slowly turning into a big lady, her stems are strong, regularly grown, so that massive buds can form on them ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐ŸŒฒ You can see white tufts of pistils on the stems, in this week of flowering they are just right and look like a blanket of snow โ„๏ธโ„๏ธ She is already a strong lady revealing her beauty. ๐ŸŒฒ๐Ÿ’“ The box emits a soft scent that reminds of fruit and earth, but it's a gentle whiff ๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒ Thanks for the likes and you can follow me on Twitter ๐Ÿฆ: @ Targona666 See you soon ๐Ÿ˜

Still Hot AF! Weโ€™re at 100F everyday. All except the jelly rancher seem fine with it. The banana mango isnโ€™t bothered. Itโ€™s interesting the heat difference on strains. All were planted the same time July 24, for the first time high today will be 90! Not 100! Shooting up like rockets! July 27th - supercropped the banana mango and itโ€™s crazy wide and like a huge solar array! It rained yesterday! Real, soaking, non-drought rain. The plants loved itโ€ฆ

The ladies are doing a lot better this week. They got fed and cal-mag . Banana Purple Punch and Forbidden Runtz finally are developing and growing. Slowly but surely.

Great nose and terps. Cookies beats out Humboldt in quality. Yield was very low but that could have been growers error

Such a top quality strain ๐Ÿ” very very terpy, stinks like OG kush, rock hard dense nuggets, they're literally rocks. Very frosty nuggets, full covered in resin flowers. Those orange hairs just make her irresistibly delicious ๐Ÿ˜‹ I just can't wait to smoke such a high grade. This is gonna be a good year. Hope to always have this lady in my garden every year ๐Ÿคค๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐ŸŒพ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿช
