Hello everyone! Sometimes it feels like you're doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results. It's interesting to see other diaries showing rapid progress at this point. We knew patience was key to achieving the best outcome, and by Week 8, I was quite tired. However, I believe everything happens for a reason. Our plants are incredibly strong, having endured extreme temperatures without a drop of rain, and the temperature keeps rising. This week's numbers might not be accurate due to a gap in our hydrometer, but we're proud to have made it this far. Every day is a pat on the back.
