Performed some light lst and topped all plants, then feed some recharge. They bounced back pretty fast they didn’t show no signs of stress so that’s a good thing. I’m give them one more week in the 1 gallons and then transplant to 3 gallon Keep up this grow is epic

Day 84 from seed Each auto is in different flowering weeks So post is sorta confusing as my first diary Sorry! Everything seems to be doing good. Just been feeding water since last update. I will have new lights soon 4800 evo from mars hydro 2024 version planning to harvest the GDP before switching the lights out. Day 87 swapped the light to the mars hydro 4800 evo 2024 model running 40-50 percent 12-20 inch from cannopies adjusting them slowly to new light and much higher pffd than before

She is developing nicely, haven’t really been doing much to her, other than tucking some leaves away. Comparing her to her mothers diary, she is pretty much on par in terms of flower development, maybe even slightly ahead, as I decreased the light distance much earlier.

Topped up around 16-17g of biobloom into the tropical ice cream one, just to give a bit of nitrogen since it looks like nitrogen deficiency; let’s see how it goes!

Managed to sex out the males this week, especially since the girls were putting out some pre-flower pistils. Moved others around a little using my potato fork and now everyone is in a much better spacing. Bummer that 2 out of 3 were males, but that's ok! The ladies that are left will have more room to stretch. I gave them a little Big Bloom and some molasses.

So far so good. Like how big the leaves are getting. Slowly introducing more nutrients to these babies. We've ordered a bag of CO2. Can't wait till it arrives. 🙏🤗 Day09 - Foliar spray. Nothing special. So far so good. Day11(May06) all good so far. Both plays at 7cm tall. Day13(May-08) did LST on both plants. So far so good. Day-14(May-09) nothing to report. Additional Notes: - Making 1 liter batches with water which i give every day about 100ml. - Using Alg-A-Mic 0.5 ml/l as a foliar spray.

Week 7 is finished, end is near, 3 weeks to go. Nothing much to report. Fungus gnats are bugging me for sure, but the plants seem fine. Need to get them under control after this run. Lights are at 18” dimmed to around 65%, hopefully for a measurement of about 650 ppfd. They were at 75%, but plants were showing signs of stress so I dimmed them. Just watering using tap water, not ph’d, through drip on a timer. Hand water once a week with Gaia Green Soluble Seaweed Extract 0-0-17. Light still breaking through canopy in spots. Lots of leaves, but not much bud sites below. No need to remove big leaves yet. Thanks for the view, happy growing!

Fo' Twenny here! Welcome back to my garden! Thanks for following me on this 16 strain photoperiod SOG grow adventure! We have 18 strains running with 2 regular strains, I want to be sure we can fill up the whole SOG. The 2 cultivars that are in bloom pictured are my auto-flowers that will stay in the tent when the photoperiods movie to the larger bloom tent. Check out those diaries for more deets! 9/13 - Premixed soil to prepare for upcoming transplanting. SOIL MIX DETAILS Mixed into a 50 gallon container that will be kept in a warm environment to help innocculate to promote a vast and diverse microbial life in the rhizosphere. 2 Part - Royal Gold Tupur INGREDIENTS: Coco fiber, aged forest materials, perlite, and basalt 1 Part - Fox Farms Ocean Forest INGREDIENTS: Aged forest products, sphagnum peat moss, earthworm castings, bat guano, fish emulsion, and crab meal. 1 Part - Roots Organics INGREDIENTS: Perlite, Coco Fiber, Peat Moss, Composted Forest Material, Pumice, Worm Castings, Bat Guano, Soybean Meal, Alfalfa Meal, Fishbone Meal, Kelp Meal, and Greensand.

I noticed some white blotches on a few leaves. I'm not sure if it's just water spots from my helper's carelessly watering causing water spots from the Nutrient solution or the start of a PM infection. Never really dealt with PM, but decided to spray them with some serenade. I also sprinkled with a little more White Dutch Clover seed on top soil. GOOD NEWS: I upgraded the 24"x48" tent to Samsung LM301H boards. I ordered a 320w straight single piece heatsink with 3 boards from Geeklight. I went with the 3k spectrum and switchable UV/IR since all my autoflowers bloom under this light. $306 USD after all is said and done. It took 9 calendar days to ship from China. https://app.alibaba.com/dynamiclink?touchId=1600101815945&type=product&schema=enalibaba%3A%2F%2Fdetail%3Fid%3D1600101815945%26ck%3Dshare_detail&ck=share_detail&shareScene=buyer NUTRITION: Mixing rundown Foliar Feed & Nutrient Solutiin 2 gal tap h2O run through x2 KDF filters Start ppm 630 Start ph 7.8 1 tsp/gal Gold Shield Silica Supplement 1 tsp/gal Fox Farm Gringo Rasta Cal-Mag 8.1 ph .33 tsp gal ph down pH: 6.5 PPM: 730 Serenade 3 tsp/gal (Always adjust pH prior to adding any microbial innocclants) Filled Spray bottle with 32 oz of the 2 gal mixed solution.

Nov 12. - start of week 7 and all is looking quality👍. ITs been a busy 3 days to start, some defo and the final topping on the manifold. Kept 2 tips on the second node cause I’m greedy and like weed so... let em grow! we’ll figure it out😎(see vid). She’s a champ, hate strippn er down but she’s done nothing but respond well so this should turn out excellent👌. Cheers to all you fellow grow wizards and thanks again for comments and discussion. Dope ass community of peeps here👊PEACE!✌️ Nov. 17 update - not much to tell. Amped up the watering volume a touch, just tryn to anticipate her needs while she grows out. Another lst session to spread er out. As soon as sheshows enough stalk for it, i re-tie her. Constantly adjusting while she grows makes it so much easier and I expect nothing but perfection in terms of structure. That was the whole point of this excersice and I’m really hoping for some monster colas👍😎 Background After the batshit nonsense with this years outdoor grows getting jacked, I need some kush and I need it fast! This girls an indoor grow in the cabinet and she'll be manifolded and defo'd for 8-10 fat ass colas. They’ll spend a first week or so under a cfl assembly while the last harvest dries out in the cabinet. This grow is going to be nute sched. heavy and will hopefully test the limits of my smaller grow space (2sq/ft). Ive had my eye on a critical & kush cross for awhile and really looking forward to seeing this one grow out. Thanks for take'n a peek, stayed tuned, and happy grow'n folks! 👊

🌱 Week 2 – Purple CousKush Auto | Pheno B | Building the Foundation Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of my 8×8 Adventure, where every seed gets the opportunity to tell its own story. This diary follows Purple CousKush Auto – Pheno B, and while her sister surprised me with an unusual mutation during the first weeks of life, this lady has chosen a different path. She is developing with beautiful symmetry, strong vigor, and exactly the kind of structure that makes a grower smile every time the tent opens. Every phenotype teaches something different, and that’s exactly why I enjoy documenting them individually. ⸻ 🌿 Week 2 Development This week has been all about establishing a strong foundation before explosive vegetative growth begins. From the very beginning, Purple CousKush B has shown excellent vigor. Her internodal spacing remains tight, the stem is becoming noticeably thicker, and every node is producing healthy new shoots with vibrant green growth. The leaves are broad, healthy, and reaching confidently toward the light, showing no signs of nutrient deficiencies or environmental stress. Compared to last week, the increase in biomass is obvious. She has transitioned from a small seedling into a young plant that is now preparing for the next stage of development. Everything looks balanced. Everything looks happy. ⸻ 🌱 Beginning Low Stress Training This week also marked the beginning of her first Low Stress Training (LST). Rather than forcing the plant into shape later, I prefer to begin gently while the stems are still flexible. The main stem has been carefully bent, encouraging the plant to redistribute auxins away from the dominant top and toward the lower branches. This simple technique allows more growing tips to receive equal light while keeping the canopy flatter for the weeks ahead. One thing I always appreciate about LST is that it works with the plant rather than against it. There is no cutting. No high-stress recovery. Just gentle guidance. Even after the initial bending, she responded beautifully. The side branches immediately began reaching upward, showing exactly why this training method has become one of my favorites for autos. Watching a plant adapt within hours never gets old. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Health Overall health continues to impress. Thick central stem Strong lateral branching Excellent leaf color Tight internodal spacing Healthy vigorous new growth The foliage remains lush without appearing overly dark, suggesting that nutrition is right where it should be. She’s developing into a compact but powerful little bush that should have no problem supporting a heavy canopy later in flower. ⸻ 🌍 Environment The entire room continues to provide an ideal environment for vigorous vegetative growth. Temperature, humidity and VPD remain within the target range, creating stable conditions that allow each phenotype to express its genetics without unnecessary stress. Consistent airflow keeps fresh CO₂ moving throughout the canopy while strengthening stems naturally, and the lighting continues delivering an even PPFD across the entire garden. Healthy roots create healthy plants, and maintaining environmental stability is just as important as choosing the right nutrients. ⸻ 🌱 Nutrition Purple CousKush Auto is growing in Plagron substrate, receiving the same carefully controlled feeding schedule as the rest of the 8×8 project. This run is built around the Plagron nutrient line, supplying everything needed for healthy root expansion and vigorous vegetative growth while avoiding unnecessary excesses during these early weeks. Rather than pushing rapid growth, my goal is to establish a strong root system first. Healthy roots become healthy stems, healthy stems support healthy branches, and healthy branches eventually become beautiful flowers. As always, balance beats excess. ⸻ 📸 This Week’s Observations One of the things I enjoy most is comparing sisters grown under identical conditions. Same room. Same lighting. Same nutrients. Same environment. Yet every plant still develops its own personality. While Pheno A became the little rebel, Pheno B is showing textbook development, responding perfectly to gentle LST and already building the structure that should carry her through flowering. Both are beautiful. Just beautifully different. That’s the magic hidden inside every seed. ⸻ 🌿 Looking Ahead Over the coming week, I’ll continue adjusting the LST little by little, allowing the secondary branches to rise evenly while maintaining a low, open canopy. The goal isn’t simply to make the plant shorter. The goal is to create an even platform where every future cola receives equal access to light and airflow. For now, there is no need to rush. She’s exactly where she should be. Healthy. Strong. Growing with confidence. ⸻ Thank you to Plagron for providing the foundation for this grow, Zamnesia for helping make this incredible project possible, and Grow Diaries for giving growers around the world a place to share, learn, and inspire one another. And thank you for following another week of this 8×8 Adventure. Whether a plant follows the textbook or decides to write its own chapter, every phenotype has something to teach us—and that’s what makes this journey so rewarding. Growers Love and see you all in Week 3. 🌱💚
