This week is start of 4th flower week. The plants look good but i need buy some yellow cards. Buds become bigger and start to smell more intense. The lemon haze surprised me, because i germinated her 15 dsys after them other 2 and shes the biggest of them all. Hope, everything will be fine. ✌️ In the middle of the week i took the net away because it seems they stretched finally and they have a good shape now.

Cash Express – Pheno A | Week 3 A Picture of Vigor Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure, where twelve cultivars are being documented individually under a 12/12-from-seed schedule. Each phenotype receives its own dedicated diary, allowing us to observe not only cultivar differences but also the subtle variations that appear between sister plants sharing the same genetic foundation. Week 3 has been a week of acceleration. The entire room received a substantial increase in light intensity, moving from approximately 370 µmol/m²/s PPFD to 700 µmol/m²/s PPFD at canopy level. Nutrient strength increased alongside the lighting, and the plants have responded with enthusiasm. Growth rates are increasing, branching is becoming more apparent, and the room is beginning to transition from seedlings into young plants with real structure and personality. Among them, Cash Express Pheno A is making a very strong first impression. ⸻ Week 3 Environment 🌡️ Temperature: 27.4°C 💧 Relative Humidity: 55% 💡 PPFD: ~700 µmol/m²/s 🌱 Medium: Plagron Lightmix ? Growing Method: 12/12 From Seed 💦 Water Consumption: ~0.9–1.2L per day Feeding Schedule Days 18 * EC 1.0 * pH 5.99–6.0 * Approximately 1L Days 21– * EC 1.3 * pH 6.0 * Approximately 1.2L The environment remains stable, which allows each cultivar to express its genetic potential without external stress factors influencing development. ⸻ Cash Express Pheno A Some plants attract attention because they are unusual. Others attract attention because they are simply doing everything right. Cash Express Pheno A belongs firmly in the second category. Looking through this week’s photographs, the first word that comes to mind is: Vigor. Everything about this plant communicates health. The leaves are broad and evenly developed. The coloration is rich and consistent. The stem is sturdy. The internodal spacing remains compact. And perhaps most importantly, the overall symmetry is excellent. From above, the plant displays a clean, balanced structure that many growers hope to see at this stage of development. Each new node seems to emerge with confidence, stacking neatly above the previous one while maintaining a very organized architecture. The increased PPFD appears to have been welcomed rather than merely tolerated. Instead of stretching toward the light, the plant is building mass. The canopy is widening. The stem is thickening. The branching is becoming more defined. This is exactly the kind of response growers hope to see when increasing light intensity. One of my favorite observations this week is the contrast between the mature fan leaves and the fresh emerging growth. The older leaves provide a strong foundation while the new growth pushes upward with remarkable energy, creating that vibrant layered look that healthy plants often display during rapid vegetative development. There is a confidence to this phenotype. No strange leaf shapes. No unusual growth patterns. No hesitation. Just steady, healthy progression. Sometimes perfection can be boring. But in the garden, perfection is still beautiful. And this plant is undeniably beautiful. ⸻ Reading the Plant One of the most important lessons in cultivation is learning to observe rather than assume. This week offered a perfect example. When PPFD was increased to approximately 700 µmol/m²/s, the goal was not simply to provide more light. The goal was to see how the plants would respond. Cash Express Pheno A answered quickly. The leaves remained comfortable and relaxed. The plant maintained healthy posture. New growth accelerated. Color remained strong. These signals tell us that the plant is utilizing the additional photons effectively rather than becoming stressed by them. This is why environmental monitoring is so valuable. Plants communicate continuously. The challenge is learning how to listen. ⸻ Structure and Development At this stage, Pheno A is developing into a plant that could potentially become a very balanced individual later in flower. Several characteristics stand out: * Excellent symmetry * Strong central growth * Healthy branching development * Compact internodal spacing * Consistent leaf morphology * Strong response to increased PPFD The architecture currently suggests a phenotype capable of building a dense, productive canopy while maintaining a manageable structure. Of course, the real story is still ahead. Week 3 only gives us the first hints of what this plant may become. But those hints are promising. Very promising. ⸻ Looking Ahead Over the next week, I will be watching closely for: * Continued branch development * Response to the higher EC feeding schedule * Growth rate compared to neighboring cultivars * Structural changes as additional nodes form * Early indicators of flowering transition under the 12/12 schedule If the current pace continues, this plant could quickly establish itself as one of the stronger performers in the room. For now, she remains one of the cleanest examples of healthy development in the entire project. ⸻ Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following along with this journey. Thank you to the entire GrowDiaries community for providing a place where growers can document, learn, share experiences, and support one another. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition and cultivation support powering this project. Thank you to Zamnesia for the genetics, equipment, and opportunity to document these cultivars from seed to harvest. And thank you to every grower, reader, supporter, and curious visitor who takes time out of their day to follow these updates. The plants grow because of biology. The project grows because of community. 🌱💚 Growers Love and see you next week.

Buenos días familia, increíble, sin palabras con esta variedad, lástima la lie y perdimos una a principio, pero estas 2 crazy cookies crecen una locura. Ph controlado en 6,5 y una humedad por encima de 40% así que todo fenómeno. Una cepa bastante fácil en sus primeras semanas. Veremos próximamente como se forman nuestras flores familia

Gold Sativa has been growing good. Been focused on root pruning the last week. Something I should of been doing from the beginning. I increased her nutrition slightly. Likely 2 weeks till I change light schedule. Depending on how fast the roots recover. I am in no hurry really. I am growing her in a New Level Hydro bucket, under the Spider Farmer SE5000 light at 60 percent currently. Thank you New Level Hydro, Quebec Seeds, and Spider Farmer. 🌱🤜🤛🌱💪 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g SE5000 https://amzn.to/3qFpAML Spider Farmer Official Website Links: US&Worldwide: https://www.spider-farmer.com UK: https://spiderfarmer.co.uk CA: https://spiderfarmer.ca EU: https://spiderfarmer.eu AU: https://spiderfarmer.com.au Coupon Code: saveurcash Www.newlevelhydro.com Www.hygrozyme.com

D92. At the start of week eight of flower, the girls are simply doing their thing and slowly bulking up. I gave each girl 1.25 liters of water @ pH 6.6. ------------------------------ D93. I brewed compost tea (worm castings, rock dust, kelp meal, biochar, oatmeal) and gave each girl 2.5 liters @ pH 6.6. ------------------------------ D95. Each girl got 2.5 liters of water @ pH 6.6 with FFJ, humic acid, and a teaspoon of Epsom salt. ------------------------------ D98. We're at the end of week eight of flower, and we're heading toward the final stretch. I guess another two to four weeks until harvest. Today, each girl got 2.5 liters of water @ pH 6.7. ------------------------------

Pics are labeled at the beginning and end of week 7. The flowers are maturing. About 50% pistils are amber. I’m still having some lite green color in 1of 6 plants. Seems to be correcting now with nitrogen. 1 of 6 plants was a free seed. I lost track of which one but I think it’s easier to pick out now. Pic labeled with the one I believe is a different strain. It looks like a later maturing strain and heavier flowers. The smell is very very strong even with a new carbon filter inside the tent and one outside it in the room.

I know it is only two weeks but compared to other auto flower plants during this stage I'm starting to think that all three of my girls are stunted. I did have an issue during week 1. My light wasn't 18 inches as Mars Hydro indicated. I still had my lights height at 24inches.

Diese Woche haben die Blüten ordentlich an Gewicht zugelegt die Triebe fangen langsam an zu hängen mal gucken ob das nächste Woche noch geht ohne abstützen. Der ec wurde die Woche auf 1,2 verringert außerdem wurde PK13/14 hinzugefügt ph pendelt immer von 5,8 bis maximal 6,2 der Geruch wird jeden Tag stärker der 2 Topf ist mittlerweile auch schon recht stark bewurzelt die nächsten Wochen wird drauf geachtet die Temperatur nicht über 25 grad steigen zu lassen um die Terpene zu schonen. Die Blüten sind komplett mit Trichomen überzogen sogar größere fächerblätter sind komplett besetzt die Harzproduktion hat jetzt richtig zugelegt

Seconda settimana si iniziano a vedere i segni della fioritura che avanza anche se devo dire che due piante sono veramente dei mostri, belle enormi rami belli spessi ,molta fame reggono bene i fertilizzanti, vi ricordo che questi semi sono un mix di tropicanna della Sweet seeds con vari fenotipi soprattutto quello viola perche raccolti da piante viola belle e soprattutto resinose, questo e il 3 o 4 raccolto che faccio e non mi ha mai deluso. Vedremo cosa uscirà a sto giro.....buona terapia a tutti 💚🌱💜🆓🇵🇸🇵🇸🆓

All pics are from the 1st day of each week I upped the nutes considerably this week saw some weird spots forming on several of the plants just figured it was nute lock so i drained a gallon of water from the affected plant and replaced with basic ro ph balanced water to dilute was this the rt thing to do? Will be doing only 50% nutes from here on

Day 79. 3 liters go in. Girl got small haircut, fades quick and not nice, but i chosen that way without nutes and i stick to it. She is most behind, still has 14+ days till chop. Stinks, swapped her place in tent with Kush. Mars hydro TS 1000 works perfectly ! Happy Growing !!!
