Everything is progressing normally. The weather is changing and temps outside are dropping so high temps in tent are no longer an issue. Other than the burnt tips from some sort of burn or defiency I have no complaints. I plan on harvesting BBK next week Wednesday. I fed them regular water right before taking the pics with 3 oz liquid worm castings mixed into 2 gallons. I have been feeding them each until first signs of run noff. The watering before this one (Sun 10/24) I gave them plain water, the one before that (Thur 10/21) I gave them the max dosage of what the general hydroponics 3 in 1 bottles recommend and didnt hold back like I normally do which is to give about half of what they recommend. It didn't appear to affect the plant to much as far as burn, the tips were already fried and the sclerosis didn't progress. I will flush the BBK this Friday and prepare her to harvest next Wed or Friday. I can't wait!!

Blueberry Muffin – Pheno B Week 6 | Nature Keeps Her Own Calendar Growing multiple phenotypes from the same seed pack is one of the greatest reminders that every plant writes her own story. Even when everything is identical—the same room, the same lighting schedule, the same nutrients, the same environment—each phenotype responds according to its own genetic blueprint. Blueberry Muffin Pheno B continues to prove that point beautifully. While her sister has already settled comfortably into flowering, this lady is still taking her time. She's showing the earliest signs that bloom is approaching, but she hasn't fully committed just yet. And that's perfectly okay. Sometimes the best thing a grower can do is stop trying to rush nature and simply pay attention to what the plant is saying. 🌱 The 12/12 From Seed Adventure If you're joining this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire 8×8 Adventure is being grown using the 12/12 from seed method. From the moment these seeds germinated, they've received twelve hours of light and twelve hours of darkness every single day. Unlike a traditional photoperiod grow, where the grower decides exactly when flowering begins by changing the light cycle, this approach allows each plant to determine its own timing. That's why these two Blueberry Muffin sisters look so different despite growing side by side. Pheno A embraced flowering weeks ago. Pheno B is still finishing the work she wants to do before making that transition. She's reminding us that genetics don't own a calendar. They simply follow their own rhythm. 🌿 A Compact Bush With Big Potential One thing that immediately stands out this week is just how compact this phenotype has become. She's noticeably shorter than her sister, yet every internode is packed tightly together, producing a dense, healthy canopy filled with future flowering sites. The gentle Low Stress Training continues to work exactly as intended. Rather than forcing dramatic changes, it has gradually opened the plant while encouraging side branches to grow upward and compete for the canopy. Leaf tucking has remained part of the daily routine, helping expose developing shoots without removing unnecessary foliage. With such tight growth, every little adjustment makes a noticeable difference. The result is a beautifully balanced little bush that feels full of potential. 💧 Individual Care for an Individual Plant One advantage of growing each phenotype as its own diary is being able to treat every plant according to its own needs. Unlike several of the other girls in this room, Pheno B is still being hand-watered. She continues receiving her own feeding schedule, allowing me to make adjustments specifically for this phenotype while observing how she develops before eventually joining the rest of the flowering program. Not every plant wants the same meal at the same time. Listening to that difference is part of becoming a better grower. 🍽️ Feeding While many of the flowering plants have already moved to a bloom-focused nutrition schedule, Pheno B continues following a transitional feeding program that supports both vegetative growth and the approaching flowering stretch. This week's feeding consisted of: • Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L • Terra Bloom – 1.8 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Roots – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L The nutrient solution remained stable with an EC of approximately 1.78 mS/cm and a pH adjusted to 6.02, providing everything she needs while allowing her to continue developing at her own pace. For now, there's no reason to rush any changes. Healthy plants tell you when they're ready. 🌡️ Environment Environmental conditions remained very consistent throughout the week. Daytime temperatures averaged around 29°C, with nighttime temperatures close to 25°C. Relative humidity settled around 60%, while atmospheric CO₂ measured approximately 693 ppm. These stable conditions continue providing an ideal environment for steady growth, allowing Pheno B to focus her energy on building structure before fully committing to flower. Consistency is often one of the most overlooked nutrients in any grow room. 📸 This Week Behind the Lens This week's photographs perfectly capture the personality of this phenotype. The side profiles reveal an incredibly stocky plant with thick stems and remarkably tight internodal spacing, while the close-up images begin showing the earliest hints of floral development hiding between vibrant green leaves. She's not stretching dramatically. Instead, she's quietly building a strong, compact framework that could eventually support some beautifully dense flowers. Sometimes the plants that make us wait the longest surprise us the most at harvest. 🔍 Looking Ahead I have a feeling this could be Pheno B's final week of vegetative growth. The first signs are there. She's beginning to hint that flowering is finally approaching, even if she's still taking things more slowly than the rest of the room. Over the coming week I'll continue with gentle leaf tucking, maintain the current feeding program, and simply let her dictate the pace. If she officially enters flower, the diary will naturally follow her into that next chapter. If she chooses to wait another few days... That's perfectly fine too. After all, one of the biggest lessons this project continues to teach is that plants don't grow according to our expectations. They grow according to their genetics. 💚 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure and sharing this journey with me. Whether you're here to learn something new, compare growing techniques, ask questions, or simply enjoy watching these different phenotypes develop, I truly appreciate having you along for the ride. Special thanks to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can document every success, challenge, and lesson. ? Zamnesia for these fantastic Blueberry Muffin genetics, which continue to showcase just how diverse two sister plants can become. 🌱 Plagron for supplying the nutrition that supports every stage of this grow, allowing each phenotype to receive exactly what it needs. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the consistent light that powers this entire project from seed to harvest. And finally... Thank you for taking the time to follow this adventure. Every comment, every question, every shared experience, and every bit of encouragement helps make these diaries something far greater than a simple grow log. Growers Love, and I'll see you next week... where we'll discover whether Pheno B finally decides it's time to join her sister in full flower—or reminds us once again that nature always keeps her own calendar. 🌱💚

Seofuku und Cookies and Cream wurden getoppt. Sie sind beide etwas größer als die Chemo Cake und so geben wir dieser etwas Zeit zum aufholen. Das starke Licht scheint etwas zu viel für sie zu sein. Für alle drei gab es die zweite Dosis Pflanzengeflüster. 1,5 g in 100 ml auf drei Pflanzen verteilt.

Has a nice skunky smell. Just going through her thing. Shout out to AMS(Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds) for this beautiful Afghan Feminized. She is completely done with her stretch, has starting stacking her bud sights and started to produce noticable trichomes. Giving her nothing but RSO, tiger bloom, black strap molasses and CalMag. Possibly add Bestie BloomZ this coming week. Still have along way to go, but definitely be worth it. 🔥 🎄 💕

What are the 7 constants? The seven defining constants are: the caesium hyperfine frequency Δν Cs the speed of light in vacuum c. the Planck constant h. the elementary charge e. the Boltzmann constant k. the Avogadro constant NA, and. the luminous efficacy of a defined visible radiation K. cd How many universal constants are there? If you give a physicist the laws of physics, the initial conditions of the Universe, and these 26 constants, they can successfully simulate any aspect of the entire Universe. What is meant by a universal constant? Definition of universal constant : a physical constant of wide application and frequent occurrence in physical formulas the speed of light, c, the electronic charge, e, and the Planck constant, h, are universal constants. Is Pi a universal constant? 3.141 (3+1+4+1=9) Well, Pi is different from all other numbers. It is a universal constant encoded in most processes occurring in the universe, including those in the life sciences! Is gravity a universal constant? Is 9.8 the force of gravity? The numerical value for the acceleration of gravity is most accurately known as 9.8 m/s/s. There are slight variations in this numerical value (to the second decimal place) that are dependent primarily upon altitude. This is not to be mistaken for the Universal Gravitational Constant G Constant at any point in this universe. G = 6.67408×10–11Nm2/kg2. Time as we know it, hours, minutes, and seconds are man-made and used to show how long something takes to decay from exposure to radiation they use it to measure half-lives in atomic decay chains. Nature knows only cycles. Hidden phi or golden ratio symmetry as found in solid state matter“On the atomic scale particles do not behave as we know it in the macro-atomic world. New properties emerge which are the result of an effect known as Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle. In order to study these nanoscale quantum effects the researchers have focused on the magnetic material cobalt niobate. It consists of linked magnetic atoms, which form chains just like a very thin bar magnet, but only one atom wide and is a useful model for describing ferromagnetism on the nanoscale in solid-state matter. When applying a magnetic field at right angles to an aligned spin the magnetic chain will transform into a new state called quantum critical, which can be thought of as a quantum version of a fractal pattern. Prof. Alan Tennant, the leader of the Berlin group, explained; “The system reaches a quantum uncertain — or a Schrödinger cat state. This is what we did in our experiments with cobalt niobate. We have tuned the system exactly in order to turn it quantum critical.” By tuning the system and artificially introducing more quantum uncertainty the researchers observed that the chain of atoms acts like a nanoscale guitar string. Dr. Radu Coldea from Oxford University, who is the principal author of the paper and drove the international project from its inception a decade ago until the present, explains: “Here the tension comes from the interaction between spins causing them to magnetically resonate. For these interactions, we found a series (scale) of resonant notes: The first two notes show a perfect relationship with each other. Their frequencies (pitch) are in the ratio of 1.618…, which is the golden ratio famous from art and architecture.” Radu Coldea is convinced that this is no coincidence. “It reflects a beautiful property of the quantum system — a hidden symmetry. Actually, quite a special one called E8 by mathematicians, and this is its first observation in a material,” he explains.” The E8 structure itself has relationships to Phi (1.618).

On day 1 the plants are looking good. I confirmed that my one cola was seeded, so I removed all visible seed pods. After this run I will do a deep cleaning to make sure there is no pollen in my grow box. The rest of my plant colas seem fine... I changed out my reservoir and adjusted the PH to 6.1. I also dimmed my light to 75% to mimic spring conditions. On day 2 I adjusted the PH of the reservoir down to 6.1. The plants are looking great besides a few fox tails from too much light. On day 3 the PH in the reservoir is 6.2. On day 4 I diluted my reservoir with plain water to lower the ppm down to 400 ppm, and I adjusted PH to 6.2 . The buds are ripening for sure and smell great! I haven't gotten any autumn colors yet even though I have dimmed my grow light and lowered my night time temps. I hope by 8 weeks the plants will have some more purple tones but if not I'm good with the flower quality thus far :). The breeder says 7-8 weeks so I'm hoping I am close to the finish line. I will continue to monitor the trichomes for ripeness. On day 5 I adjusted the reservoirs PH to 6.0. I harvested my seeded cola on Pheno #1 as it had stopped growing/ripening and would be a good tester ;) On day 6 the reservoirs PH is 6.2. On day 7 the PH is 6.0 50 % pistils have turned amber so I believe I have entered my harvest window and expect to flush and harvest soon:) very excited!

Ok so i'm pretty sure i'm screwed......these plants are now going to be over the fence but it is what it is, had some help measuring the plants this time so the tape did fold and i know that it got to the base of the stalk as it's really hard to do by yourself with plants of this size: PP #1-74 inches #2-80.5 inches #3-82 inches OS #1-78 inches #2-75 inches #3-70 inches So i believe i'm running into a MG deficiency with these girls as well, i'll fill out the grow question for one lucky person to get some point for GOTM. Still waiting on my bag of gaia green 4-4-4, but i did give them some Basalt rock dust 1 cup and some Glacial rock dust 2 cups to try in help what i believe to be an MG deficiency. I didn't have enought to give them what i wanted to so i'll have to wait for that to come in as well or just pick up some rock dust on my way home from Halifax Seed. I under estimated fertilizers for this grow wasn't expecting them to get this big...... Woke up the other morning to a little bit of wind come from the west and the tops were doing some swaying so i had to run into town to the grow shop and pick up some trellis to secure the tops that arn't in the cage. I figured the best was to trellis them as i could only get two 5x30 nets what to just run one each over the tops and secure to the fence. I did work on cleaning some of the inside out but theres just so much it's hard to get everything done in two week with real life going on as well. So i've set up an automated curing system for when these ladies are done. I'll have an air pump hooked up to a timer, then the pump will run into a 12 valve manifold, there will be 12 bucket. each valve will have it's own bucket. each bucket has a one way check valve going into the bottom of the bucket into a perforated hose that will cure around the bottom of the bucket. so the fresh air will rise up thru the bucket. at the top of the bucket will be an outlet with a one way check valve. the buckets have Gama seal lids that screw on with gaskets so it gives you an air tight seal. So having the timer set to twice a day for the first two weeks then adjust to once a day everyday for a few more weeks everything should be on cruse control, no more burping jars if everything works like it's supposed to!

I'm guessing there are 2 weeks to go? The trichomes still look mostly clear, but the amber is definitely creeping up. I may have started flushing too soon because the ingoing ppm almost matches the outgoing ppm. Trying not to miss the first harvest date! I'm going to purchase a USB microscope to take better trichome pics.

Not much to say this week. Still feeding the same amount. Looks like it might be starting to foxtail. It's really a bummer there is no purple yet, I grabbed this because I wanted a modern purple strain!
