Here we are into the beginning of true flowering! Stacking has begun, flower development is coming along beautifully, both plants are loving the 900PPFD & 2.0EC feed without signs of stress. Co2 is being implemented this week & leaf tucking will continue. The Bride Cake has surprised me with its stretch during this last week or 2, Growing nearly an inch every other day. No real serious trichome development yet so only a faint smell when first opening the tent. Both plants are drinking quite a lot which Iโ€™m very happy to see.

10 Jan - 16 Jan 11 Jan Kush del Arriero: Looking good, fat buds, a lot of them. Choco Cookies: This one has been a little too sensitive with nutrients, it only has a few small buds, the other plants overshadow it. Banana Cake: TBH I thought this was going to be the one with the biggest buds, they look frosty tho. 15 Jan Some fan leaves are starting to look pretty damaged by a previous nutrient lock.

Did some slight training on one plant. Defoliated a couple lower points but overall just letting them do their thing. Got everything locked in at this point. I've got to water daily. Half of the girls already have some color in their pistols! Thanks for stopping by.

These 3 are going great @Kannabia I was going to do some training on them today was going to top one as well as fim one and leave the other to do her own thing but at the moment I don't have to do anything to them One has split it self at the middle and one has grown sideways and shooting shoots up the other one looks like I have already fim it as the bottom shoots are nearly up with the main head

Hey, cannabis enthusiasts and connoisseurs! ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ”ฅ The journey with our Runtz F1 has been nothing short of legendary, and now weโ€™re at the stage that every grower eagerly awaitsโ€”the trim and smoke report. This Runtz F1 has delivered beyond expectations, and I canโ€™t wait to share the details with you. Letโ€™s dive in! The Trim Process ๐ŸŒพโœ‚๏ธ The trimming process was an experience in itself, filled with care and attention to detail. Hereโ€™s how it all went down: โ€ข Breaking Down the Branches ๐ŸŒฟ: โ€ข First, we carefully broke down the plant into manageable branches, making sure to preserve the integrity of each bud. The structure of the Runtz F1 made this easy, with its dense, compact colas ready for precision trimming. โ€ข Trim Bin Magic โœ‚๏ธ: โ€ข Using a Trim Bin, we meticulously trimmed away the sugar leaves, leaving behind only the most beautiful, resin-coated buds. The Trim Bin isnโ€™t just a tool; itโ€™s a game-changer, allowing us to catch every last bit of precious kief that falls during the process. This extra kief is like a bonus for those special moments when you want to add a little something extra to your smoke. โ€ข Preserving Terpenes with Grove Bags ๐Ÿ›๏ธ: โ€ข Once trimmed, the buds were placed into Grove Bags for curing. These bags are revolutionary in the cannabis world, designed to lock in terpenes and keep your buds fresh for the long haul. Unlike traditional jars, Grove Bags use a special TerpLoc technology that creates a perfect microclimate within the bag, balancing out oxygen and moisture levels. This means your buds cure evenly without the need for burping, preserving that incredible citrus terpene profile weโ€™ve come to love from the Runtz F1. The Legendary Smoke ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ Now, letโ€™s talk about the smokeโ€”because this is where the Runtz F1 truly shines. โ€ข Flavor Explosion ๐ŸŠ๐Ÿ‹: โ€ข The moment you take your first inhale, youโ€™re hit with a symphony of citrus flavors. Itโ€™s like walking through a citrus grove with the sun shining downโ€”notes of oranges, tangerines, and lemons come through strong, each one distinct yet harmoniously blended. But the magic doesnโ€™t stop there; an underlying hint of vanilla sneaks in on the exhale, rounding out the flavor with a creamy, smooth finish. Itโ€™s an experience that dances on your palate, leaving you craving more. โ€ข Aroma ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ: โ€ข The smell is just as captivating as the flavor. As soon as you open the Grove Bag, the room fills with that zesty citrus aroma, complemented by a subtle sweetness from the vanilla undertone. Itโ€™s the kind of smell that makes you pause and appreciate the craft that went into growing this plant. โ€ข The Effects ๐ŸŒŸ: โ€ข The effects of the Runtz F1 are as balanced as its flavor profile. Expect an initial wave of uplifting energyโ€”perfect for daytime use or when you need a creative boost. As the high settles in, it mellows into a relaxed, yet focused state. Itโ€™s the best of both worlds: energizing without being overwhelming, and calming without knocking you out. This makes it an ideal strain for those who want to stay productive while still enjoying a potent, flavorful smoke. Final Thoughts and Invitation ๐ŸŽฅโœจ The Runtz F1 has proven itself to be a true connoisseurโ€™s strainโ€”a perfect blend of flavor, aroma, and effects thatโ€™s both complex and satisfying. This was a journey that showcased the importance of patience, precision, and care, from germination all the way to the final cure. If you want to dive deeper into the entire process, from the first week of veg to the final trim, Iโ€™ve documented it all on my YouTube channel. Join me there for a closer look at how this incredible strain came to life, and learn more about the tips and techniques I used to bring out the best in these plants. Thank you to everyone whoโ€™s been part of this journey, from the community to the amazing brands like Gro Diaries, TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Kannabia, and more. Your support and tools have been invaluable. Remember, the magic is in the detailsโ€”so never stop learning, growing, and enjoying the fruits of your labor.

Legendary OG Punch Originally my plan was to grow just four that's why in the photos there's only four seeds. I added the fifth after another strain didn't germinate all of the seeds. Germination went great, all of the seeds germinated and quite fast. Strain Characteristics from breeder: The purple gloves are off, the legend has entered the ring, and she is ready to deliver a 1-2 punch combo on mind and body. With three incredible strains in her corner, Legendary Punch is a knockout sensation for hybrid lovers. Flooring cannabis connoisseurs, she will leave you in a couch-locked state of bliss. Pre-roll your joints, turn off your phone, and prepare for a TKO. Legendary Punch: She Only Needs One Hit To Knock You Down More than just an appealing description, the boxing analogy is an elaborate code to highlight her thoroughbred parents. First up in her dank corner, Legend OG. Providing a massive sedative effect, she is a prime candidate for Kush lovers. Creating further support for Legendary Punch, Granddaddy Purple and Larry OG combine to become Purple Punch. Their partnership brings improved yields and additional potency to the table. With two premium coaches, Legendary Punch is a mighty hybrid ready to take down any challengers. DELIVERING A SOOTHING BLOW TO THE BODY Legendary Punch lives up to heavy indica tradition, despite being a hybrid. Her high is intensely focussed on soothing the aches and pains of physical labour. Used recreationally, users can expect to be firmly locked into place for several hours. Her sheer strength and determination lead many cannabis lovers to indulge just before bed. The powerful sedation ensures a restful night. Flavours also support a late-evening smoke by delivering a blend of grapes, berries, and lavender. While mostly body-centric, you can also expect mild waves of euphoriaโ€”less dominant than the blow to the body, but still enough to wash away those small nagging worries. BOLD FLOWERS MEET AROMATIC BUDS An elegant central cola shows off her swagger and confidence. Hues of green, orange, and purple are worn like a pre-match gown. Her aroma is just as brash to begin with, hitting growers as soon as they come close. Fruity notes with hints of pine and citrus easily overwhelm the nostrils. Give her plenty of space to grow indoors, and she will reward you with 350โ€“400g/mยฒ. That is as long as your neighbours donโ€™t mind the pungent aroma that develops. Outdoor growers can expect to harvest at the beginning of October. Indoors flowering takes only 60โ€“65 days, a small price to pay for her knockout attributes. Genetic Background: Legend Og x Purple Punch Type: Feminized Sativa 40% Indica 60% THC: 19% CBD: Medium Yield Indoor : 350 - 400 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 500 - 550 gr/plant Height Indoor: 90 - 160 cm Height Outdoor: 180 - 220 cm Flowering time: 9 - 10 weeks Harvest Month: Early October Effect: Cerebral and relaxing My expectations and training method: Seeing that she grows like a sativa my plan is to top and LST adjusting the colas. I might leave one without topping and just do LST for the fun of experimenting. I expect everything the breeder has described if she turns out as like so weโ€™ll be seeing lots of colors, some nice fading in the end and just an all out beautiful view and very pleasant aromas. Only thing bugging me is the yield, isnโ€™t my highest expectation with this strain. My guess is they wonโ€™t get past 45 grams per plant but obviously Iโ€™m shooting for more with the techniques being used. If she yields low but those buds come out punching hard then Iโ€™ll be happy with the results.

๐Ÿฎ 8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Week 13 ๐ŸŒธ Chem Brรปlรฉe โ€“ Pheno B ๐Ÿ”ฅ ๐Ÿ‘‘ A Different Kind Of Beast Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And... OH MY GOD. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿฎ Much like her sister... this girl is a beast. But she's a completely different kind of beast. Because when I look at Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno B now, I honestly don't know what else to call her. She's peculiar. She's exquisite. She's unusual. She's beautiful. And the flower formation she's putting together is absolutely fascinating. You look at the plant... then you look closer... then closer again... and suddenly you're thinking: "Okay... what the hell are you building here?" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐ŸŒธ And I absolutely love it. This is exactly why we grow phenotypes separately. Because two plants can share the same room, the same environment, the same photons, the same nutrition and the same grower... and still come out looking completely different. Her sister is a beast in her own way. Pheno B? She's a different animal entirely. And honestly... I have a feeling this one may be a connoisseur's kind of girl. Let's see where she takes us. For now... let's give this beautiful beast the spotlight she deserves. 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”ฅ She's A Beast โ€” But Her Own Kind Last week we talked about Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno B claiming her place in the tent. Well... I think she's officially claimed it. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ She's not asking for permission anymore. She's just there. Standing in her space. Building these incredible flowers. Showing us structures that make you stop and look twice. And that's probably the biggest thing I'm noticing this week. Her individuality has become impossible to miss. She's not simply "another Chem Brรปlรฉe." She's Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno B. And the further we go into the flowering cycle, the more obvious that distinction becomes. Her sister has her own expression. This girl? Completely different. And that's what makes this so much fun. 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‘€ Look At That Formation! Seriously... look at the photographs. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ Look at that formation. Look at those flowers. Look at the way the buds are developing. Look at the structure. Look at the plant. There are certain moments during a grow where you stop thinking like a grower for a second and simply become a spectator. This is one of those moments. Because I'm looking at her and thinking: "Okay... I really want to see what this becomes." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฎ๐ŸŒธ She's developing a very particular structure. The flowers have their own shape. The way everything is stacking and forming is different. And the closer you look... the more interesting she becomes. That's the kind of plant that makes you want to keep the camera nearby. 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 Peculiar โ€” And I Mean That As A Compliment When I say peculiar, I mean it in the best possible way. She's not ordinary. She's not predictable. She's not just another flower that looks like every other flower in the room. There's something about her. The structure. The formation. The way the flowers are developing. The overall appearance. She's got character. And sometimes those are the plants that become the most memorable. Not necessarily because they're the biggest. Not necessarily because they're the most conventionally beautiful. But because they have something you can't quite explain. You look at them and think: "There's something special happening here." That's exactly how I feel about this 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”€ โ„๏ธ Exquisite Under The Camera And once again... the camera is loving her. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธโ„๏ธ From across the room, she's beautiful. Move closer... and suddenly the details start appearing. The resin. The pistils. The individual flower structures. The little variations in shape. The texture. The density. And all those little details that make a phenotype interesting. This is why I enjoy photographing them so much. The eye sees the plant. The camera lets you study the plant. And Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno B gives us plenty to study. Every angle seems to show something slightly different. 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 The Main Character Now We're deep enough into flowering that the plant's architecture has already told us most of its story. Now? The flowers are doing the talking. And they're talking loudly. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒธ They're becoming more substantial. They're becoming more defined. The pistils are changing. The resin is becoming increasingly visible. And the overall structure is moving further toward maturity. This is the stage where I stop worrying about making the plant look a certain way. The plant already knows what she wants to be. Now I just want to see the final version. And judging by what I'm seeing... I'm very curious. 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 Same Room โ€” Completely Different Beast This is probably the most beautiful part of the whole 8ร—8 Adventure. Because if you put Pheno A and Pheno B beside each other, you can immediately see that they're related... but they're not the same. Same genetics. Different phenotype. And what a difference. One girl gives us one expression. The other gives us something completely different. And that's exactly why individual phenotype diaries matter. If I simply photographed the room and said: "Here are two Chem Brรปlรฉe plants." you'd lose so much of the story. Instead... we get to follow: ๐Ÿฎ Pheno A ๐Ÿฎ Pheno B Two individual plants. Two individual personalities. Two completely different interpretations of the same genetic starting point. And honestly? That's fascinating. 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 Same Photons โ€” Different Answer The lighting experiment continues exactly the same way. Future of Grow Black Series LEDs. Two additional Black Series 600W fixtures added to the room. Controlled output. Approximately: ๐Ÿ”Œ 59% power from the plug with around: โ˜€๏ธ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. And here's the beautiful part. Pheno B is receiving those same photons as everybody else. We're not giving her some special VIP lighting programme. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‘ She's under the same artificial sun. But look at what she's doing with it. This is the whole experiment. We provide the environment. The genetics provide the interpretation. And this girl is interpreting those photons in her own very peculiar way. 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 More Capability โ€” More To Observe The additional Future of Grow fixtures have been one of the most interesting upgrades to this room. We gained more lighting capability. The initial output was higher than our target. So we brought the fixtures down. Now we're operating at a controlled level that gives us strong light without needing to run everything at maximum output. And meanwhile... the plants get to show us what they do with it. Pheno B is giving us quite an answer. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ”ฅ A huge thank you again to Future of Grow for supplying those additional Black Series 600W fixtures for this experiment. Without them, we wouldn't have this additional variable to observe. And with twelve different phenotypes... there's certainly plenty to observe. 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 We're Doing Less โ€” She's Doing More This is another thing I really appreciate at this stage. We're not doing much physically to this girl. The architecture is already established. The flowers are already there. The plant has made her decisions. So our job becomes much simpler. Observe. Monitor. Maintain. Document. And get the hell out of the way. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฟ Because honestly... what am I going to do to improve this? Look at her. She's already doing her thing. Sometimes the best thing a grower can do is recognize when the plant doesn't need to be messed with. And Pheno B is definitely one of those girls right now. 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€” Still Moving Toward The Finish The nutritional programme remains in the same transition we're using across the room. Terra Bloom is currently: ๐ŸŒธ 2.0 ml/L with the EC sitting around: โšก ~2.05 mS/cm Alongside the current supporting programme: ๐ŸŒฑ Pure Zym โ€” 1 ml/L ๐ŸŒฟ Power Buds โ€” 1 ml/L ๐Ÿฏ Sugar Royal โ€” 1 ml/L And we're continuing to approach the later stages gradually. No sudden cliff. No dramatic: "That's it! Everything stops tomorrow!" ๐Ÿ˜‚ We're watching the plants. We're watching their progression. And we're making changes according to what they're showing us. Pheno B is still developing. She's still building. She's still very much alive and active. So for now... we continue watching. 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’š She's Still Got A Lot To Say One of the things I like about her is that she doesn't look finished. She looks like she's still got something to say. The flowers are developing. The structure is becoming more defined. The resin is building. The pistils are changing. And the plant still has that sense of momentum. She's getting there. But she's not done telling us what she wants to become. And that's exactly where I want her. Because the interesting part is watching that final expression emerge. Not guessing. Not forcing. Not trying to predict every detail. Just watching. 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 A Connoisseur's Plant? And now... I'm going to say something that might come back to haunt me later. ๐Ÿ˜‚ I honestly think this one could be for connoisseurs. There. I said it. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ”ฅ I'm not making a final claim. I'm not putting expectations on her. And I'm definitely not pretending we already know what the finished product will be. But visually? Structurally? The way these flowers are developing? There is something about this girl that has caught my attention. She's peculiar. She's exquisite. And she's different. And sometimes those are exactly the plants that end up being the most interesting to experienced growers. So... let's see. No expectations. Just curiosity. And right now? I'm liking what I'm seeing. A lot. 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 Studio Treatment Of course... a girl like this needs camera time. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿฎ And these photographs really do her justice. We've got the full-plant views. The individual flowers. The close-ups. The different angles. And the details. Because this is one of those plants where a single photograph doesn't tell the whole story. You need to move around her. Look at different flowers. Look at the structure. Look at how the plant has developed. And every time you do... there's another little detail. That's what makes a phenotype memorable. 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 Healthy, Stable, And Doing Her Thing The most important thing is that she's doing well. She's developing. She's flowering. She's showing beautiful structure. She's looking healthy. And she's doing it without needing constant intervention. That's exactly where I want to be at this point. The room is stable. The lighting is controlled. The irrigation is consistent. The nutritional transition is gradual. And the plant is doing the rest. We don't need to complicate it. Sometimes growing is about knowing when to work. And sometimes... it's about knowing when to leave the hell alone. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฟ This is one of those moments. 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 13 โ€” CURRENT ROOM CONDITIONS The 8ร—8 continues under the same general room conditions: ๐ŸŒธ Flowering โ€” Week 13 ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule โ€” 12/12 โ˜€๏ธ Upper-canopy PPFD โ€” ~1,500 ๐Ÿ”Œ Future of Grow Black Series output โ€” ~59% from the plug ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature โ€” ~26.5โ€“27ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature โ€” ~25โ€“26ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง Relative humidity โ€” ~60โ€“61% โš—๏ธ pH โ€” ~6.0 โšก EC โ€” ~2.05 mS/cm ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Solution temperature โ€” ~25ยฐC ๐ŸŒฑ Substrate temperature โ€” ~25โ€“26ยฐC ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ COโ‚‚ โ€” ~693 ppm ๐ŸŒฑ Pot size โ€” 15 L ๐Ÿ’ฆ Irrigation โ€” ~1.4โ€“1.45 L/plant/24h Same room. Same environment. Same lighting philosophy. Same general nutrition. Same irrigation system. And another completely different result. That's the 8ร—8 Adventure. 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 The Phenotype Experiment Gets Better Every Week The deeper we go into the cycle... the more valuable this comparison becomes. Earlier on, the differences were mostly: Height. Structure. Stretch. Leaf shape. Branching. Now? The flowers are making those differences impossible to ignore. Different shapes. Different densities. Different pistil expressions. Different resin coverage. Different maturation speeds. Different personalities. And Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno B has one of the more peculiar personalities in the room. She's not simply "good." She's interesting. And sometimes... interesting is much more exciting. 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 She's Becoming Something Special There's a moment in every grow where you stop seeing a plant as a project... and start seeing her as a finished expression slowly revealing herself. I think we're getting close to that moment with Pheno B. She's no longer a mystery. She's becoming recognizable. You know what her flowers look like. You know how she structures herself. You know her personality. And now we're watching the final details come together. She's becoming Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno B. And I really like what I'm seeing. 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”ฅ A Different Kind Of Beast Her sister is a beast. No question. But this girl? Different beast. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿฎ She's not necessarily screaming for attention. She doesn't need to. You look at her flowers... and they pull your attention in. You look at the formation... and you want to understand it. You look at the plant... and you start wondering what the finished product will look like. That's a different kind of beauty. More unusual. More mysterious. More refined. And perhaps... more suited to someone who really appreciates the details. A connoisseur's kind of girl? Maybe. Let's find out. 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 Looking Ahead โ€” I Want To See Where This Goes This is where I get genuinely excited. Because I don't know. ๐Ÿ˜‚ And that's the best part. I don't know exactly what the final flowers are going to look like. I don't know how much more they'll develop. I don't know exactly how her colours will evolve. I don't know what the final structure will become. And I don't want to guess. I want to watch. I want to photograph. I want to compare. And eventually... I want to see the final expression. Right now, though? I'm liking what I'm seeing. A lot. 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ค๏ธ FINAL THOUGHTS โ€” GIVE THIS BEAST THE SPOTLIGHT Week 13. And Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno B? She's officially one of those girls that makes me stop and stare. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ”ฅ Much like her sister... she's a beast. But she's a different kind of beast. Her flowers are peculiar. Her formation is exquisite. Her structure is fascinating. Her development is beautiful. And the closer I look... the more I like her. She's not trying to be somebody else. She's not trying to copy her sister. She's not trying to follow another phenotype's timeline. She's simply being herself. And honestly? That's exactly what I wanted from this experiment. I wanted to see what individual plants would do when given the same general opportunity. And Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno B is giving us a very interesting answer. She's saying: "This is me." ๐Ÿฎ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ And I'm listening. So let's make her shine. Let's give her the spotlight. Let's appreciate that peculiar flower formation. Let's appreciate the resin. Let's appreciate the structure. Let's appreciate the individuality. Let's appreciate the fact that this medium-sized girl can produce flowers that make you stop and say: "OH MY GOD... LOOK AT THAT." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ And most importantly... let's not put too many expectations on her. Maybe I'm right. Maybe I'm completely wrong. Maybe she's going to surprise me again. That's the fun. Let's see where she's going. For now... she's beautiful. She's fascinating. She's exquisite. She's a beast. And I'm really, really liking what I'm seeing. ๐Ÿฎโ„๏ธ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’š Keep shining, Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno B. You've absolutely earned your 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”€ ๐Ÿ™ THANK YOU A huge thank you to Zamnesia for giving us these Chem Brรปlรฉe genetics and allowing us to follow these individual phenotypes throughout the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ™ Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of this journey and helping us carry these girls through their flowering cycle. A massive thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting and especially for providing the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures we're testing in this room. ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ”ฅ The extra lighting capability has given us another fascinating variable to observe across twelve completely different plants. Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light deeper into the canopy and allowing us to explore these plants as three-dimensional structures. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us monitor and manage the room behind the scenes. And, of course... thank you to everyone following the 8ร—8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries. This is what makes this project so much fun. Every week... another plant. Another phenotype. Another personality. Another story. And now we're reaching the stage where those differences are becoming impossible to ignore. Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno B is definitely one of the girls I'm going to be watching very closely. Because there is something about this one. Something peculiar. Something exquisite. Something that makes me want to see the final result. Maybe a connoisseur's girl. Maybe simply a very special phenotype. Either way... I'm enjoying the journey. ๐Ÿฎ๐ŸŒธโ„๏ธ๐Ÿ’š So let's keep watching. Keep documenting. Keep photographing. Keep the photons flying. Keep the room stable. And most importantly... let the plant tell us what she wants to become. Until next week... Keep shining, beautiful beast. We're watching. Growers Love & Happy Growing! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ”ฅ See you next week in the 8ร—8 jungle. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ”ฅ

We are entering week 9 now! Sheโ€™s an absolute beast! Smells is strong but very fresh and tasty. The upper buds seems to be ready to harvest but I think I will give the whole plant another week until chop, chop :)

She started growing new nodes and I started raising the feed on nutrients and kept the ph at 6.5-6.6. She looks like sheโ€™s ready to flower soon. Started giving a little bit of a smell like citrusy.

Thoses ladies are smelling strong. One is about 2 week late on the other, i think he got different phenotype, and quite sure that the late one will have a bigger harvest. They are healthy and strong. I'll start to wash the first one in something like a week. Everything is going well ๐Ÿ˜Ž

An Tag 49 habe noch mal einige Zweige entfernt. Nachdem ich mich leicht verrechnet habe ๐Ÿ˜ฌ Ich benรถtigte fรผr mein Netz nur die Hรคlfte aller Zweige ๐Ÿ˜จ Beim meinem nรคchsten grow toppe ich besser in Zukunft bei 4 Nodien, lรคsst sich besser aufteilen. Nun ist Gute ziemlich spack geworden, das dauert jetzt ein wenig bis sie sich erholt hat, danach schick ich sie auch gleich in die Blรผte ๐Ÿ˜ƒ An Tag 50 habe ich nochmals geschnippelt und ein 2 Netz eingesetz. Jetzt habe ich die richtige Menge an Zweige. Nun dรผrfen die Zweige noch etwas lรคnger werden bevor ich die Blรผte einleite ๐Ÿ˜‰

This is day 75 from plant. Froot by the Foot is nearing the end, smelling very sweet and creamy. Finally showing the one gallon Top Gun some love, itโ€™s looking so cool now and smelling super funky, my favorite smell. Got some good photos using a loupe I just got. The big top gun is much bigger than the others, its cola is very impressive too me, so cool how it stacks.

Week 21 Daylight 12h20 - 7h45/20h05 Unstable weather, alternating heavy rain and wind quasi every days and sunny afternoons. Moderate temperatures around 14ยฐC min / 23ยฐC max. Plants are safe in the veranda; the sun is lower on the horizon now and the angle of the light is now perfect for a good finish. I need to test the humidity level in the room but it seems reasonable. No signs of diseases or moisture. Last weeks were hard with multiple aggressions: plants are like War Veterans with some damage and scars. The flowering process look not affected by this episode and harvest is approaching. Brake Pad Breath: almost ready. Pistils are rusty colored, buds are thick and dense, firm and sticky. Subtle fruity aroma: tonic and stimulating. Most advanced plant: will be the first harvested soon. 2L watering / 2 days flowering booster finish + water flawless finish + water Flash Back #2: ending the flowering cycle and starting maturation. Last plant infested by insects, may be the plant is reacting by accelerating the flowering: buds are not so dense compare with the previous plant. Pretty spicy smell and good resin production. flowering booster finish + water flawless finish + water GMO x Zombie Kush: starting the last flowering stage. Recovering good and was less injured by caterpillar than the others. Pistils are long and the flowers will enlarge soon: need almost 3 or 4 weeks to be ready. Grower master flo + bud XL enzyme + pk 13/14 Royal Moby is tall and late flowering but seems producing lot of flower. With the stress the plant become hermaphroditic, I discovered some bag of males flowers. I hope there is no pollination between the other plants. Grower master flo + bud XL enzyme + pk 13/14

Day 21 and the girls are really starting to take off.I did some LST on 3 of the 5 so far and will get the other 2 bent over in the next few days. Day 27 I watered with recharge tea and tied down some branches to get some more light into the center of the plants.I have increased the light intensity to 50 percent and slightly lowered the humidity this week.

Arrancรณ la floraciรณn. Las plantas se fueron bastante arriba, asรญ que estas dos semanas voy a estar aplicando lst para manejar la altura y no estresar a las plantas en floraciรณn. Es una variedad de floraciรณn rรกpida y 90% indica, por lo que no espero un estirรณn muy fuerte. Por el momento elegรญ usar EMRO desde el principio, dado que la reacciรณn de las plantas fue mejor que al bioestimulante en las aplicaciones foliares. El presupuesto no me dio para delta9 esta vez. Pero la prรณxima espero que si. De todos modos le tengo mucha fรฉ a la combinaciรณn de los dos productos usados. Estarรฉ actualizando. Es el 5to dรญa de flora y las plantas vienen mostrando un estiramiento medido. Por suerte tengo lugar para manejar la altura. Pero aรบn asรญ voy a tener que agrandar el depรณsito ya que cada 2 dรญas debo agregar agua. 18 litros no son suficientes para este tamaรฑo de plantas. Pero voy contento con los resultados. El bioestimulante que usรฉ no es muy bueno. He visto mejores reacciones con delta 9. Dรญa 7. Tuve que usar LST obligado para intentar poner las plantas a la misma altura. Al final la pequeรฑa de atrรกs no prosperรณ demasiado, asรญ que va a quedar ahรญ y sea lo que sea. Por el momento las yemas no se muestran tanto, pero eso es la falta de un bioestimulante de calidad. De todos modos por el momento los resultados son buenos y las plantas estรกn fuertes y sanas. Ya estan a 20cm de las luces y voy a tratar de mantenerlas ahรญ o como muy cerca a 15cm. Maรฑana cambio el depรณsito y repetiremos las fรณrmulas con un poco menos de EMRO.
