Starting the third Week with no issues. Temperatures outside are high, so also indoors in the tent its a bit warmer. Started with the first nutrients in the water.

🍬 Candy Rain Auto by Zamnesia | Week 2 Flower 🍬 The Elegant Survivor There are plants that grow fast. There are plants that grow big. And then there are plants that simply have style. Candy Rain is becoming one of those plants. As the only survivor from this seed pack — with the loss of her sister being entirely my own mistake — she has every reason to be remembered as the little plant that almost didn't make it. Instead, she's proving me wrong. Week after week, Candy Rain has continued developing into something I honestly wasn't expecting. She's tall, graceful, incredibly lush, and has developed an elegant structure that is becoming more and more impressive with every update. Beautiful green leaves. Beautiful flowering sites. Beautiful structure. And an attitude that seems to say: "You didn't expect this one, did you?" 😄 Well, Candy Rain... You have my attention now. 🌸 Week 2 Flower – She's Finally Showing Her Character Candy Rain has now entered her second week of flowering, and the transformation is becoming much more obvious. Standing at approximately 90 cm, she has developed a wonderfully vertical and elegant structure. Rather than becoming overly dense or chaotic, her branches have naturally arranged themselves throughout the canopy, creating plenty of space between flowering sites. The flowers are developing beautifully. Fresh white pistils are appearing across the plant, with multiple flowering sites already clearly established along the branches. The little flowers from last week are beginning to look much more like proper developing buds now. And the most impressive part? The plant looks incredibly comfortable. The foliage is lush and beautifully green, the leaves are reaching naturally toward the light, and the entire plant has that healthy, energetic appearance that every grower loves to see. She's not fighting her environment. She's enjoying it. 🌿 Plant Development – Elegance Over Everything Candy Rain has developed a very particular personality. She's not a compact little plant trying to hide between the others. She's tall. She's open. She's graceful. She's almost elegant. The earlier Low Stress Training helped establish an open framework, but at this stage I'm mostly allowing her natural growth to speak for itself. Her long branches carry flowering sites beautifully, while the fan leaves remain healthy and functional throughout the plant. Looking at her now, it's almost difficult to believe this is the same plant that started this project so slowly. She has gone from the survivor I was simply happy to keep alive... to a plant that now deserves her own spotlight. And honestly, I couldn't be happier about it. 🍃 A Beautiful Canopy One of the things that really stands out this week is the quality of the foliage. The leaves are a beautiful deep green, with strong structure and excellent development. There is a real elegance to the way they extend from the branches and surround the developing flowers. She's lush without looking messy. She's full without looking overcrowded. And the flowering sites remain visible throughout the structure. That's exactly the kind of development I like to see during this stage. Instead of forcing her into a particular shape, I'm letting Candy Rain show me what her genetics want to do. And so far... I really like what I'm seeing. 💧 Feeding Program Candy Rain continues on the Plagron flowering program. Current feeding includes: Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Plagron pH Plus – 0.03 ml/L Plagron Lemon Kick – 0.03 ml/L Current recorded parameters: pH: 6.0 EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm Solution temperature: 21°C Root-zone temperature: 21°C Watering: approximately 1.25 L per 24 hours She's responding beautifully to the current program. The foliage remains strong and balanced, flowering continues progressing naturally, and there are no obvious signs of nutritional stress in the photos. 🌡️ Environment The flowering environment remains stable: Day temperature: 29°C Night temperature: 25°C Relative humidity: 60% CO₂: 639 ppm Consistency continues to be one of the most important parts of this project. Candy Rain isn't having to constantly adapt to major environmental changes. Instead, she can simply concentrate on what she needs to do now: grow, stretch, flower, and build. 💡 Light From Above & Below The Future of Grow Black Series LED continues providing the main light source from above, while the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting is now part of Candy Rain's flowering environment. This combination is particularly interesting with a plant like this. Because Candy Rain has such an open, vertical structure, there are flowering sites positioned at different levels throughout the plant. The coming weeks will be fascinating. I'm especially interested in watching how the lower flowering sites develop as flowering progresses and how the additional under-canopy illumination contributes to the overall structure. But as always... I'm not going to make promises before harvest. We'll let the plant tell us. 🍬 Phenotype Thoughts – The Survivor Has Something to Say This is probably the most enjoyable part of this week's update. Candy Rain was never supposed to become the star of this folder. She was simply the one that remained. And now? She's standing there looking absolutely beautiful. Tall. Lush. Healthy. Elegant. Covered in developing flowers. The irony isn't lost on me. I made the mistake that cost her sister her chance in this project. Candy Rain was the one left behind, and instead of letting that define her story, she's completely written her own. This is one of the reasons I love growing. You can have expectations. You can have plans. You can have an idea of which plants will impress you. And then one plant quietly comes along and says: "Watch me." Candy Rain is doing exactly that. 🔭 Looking Ahead The next few weeks should be particularly exciting. The stretch will eventually slow down, and more of her energy will move toward building the flowers that are now developing all across her branches. Those beautiful white pistils should continue multiplying, the flowers should begin gaining more volume, and the plant's final structure will become much easier to judge. I'm also very curious to see how she responds to the combination of the overhead Black Series lighting and Lumiflora under-canopy lighting as the flowers continue developing. For now, though, there is absolutely nothing I want to rush. Candy Rain has already taught me that lesson. Give her time. She'll decide what she wants to become. ❤️ Final Thoughts – From Survivor to Showstopper? I started this diary thinking Candy Rain would simply be the plant that survived. Now I'm starting to wonder if she might become something much more memorable. She has gone from a slow beginning to a beautifully structured, tall and elegant flowering plant. And every time I look at her, I find something new to appreciate. The leaves. The structure. The flowering sites. The colour. The way she carries herself. She has become the elegant survivor. And perhaps that's the best part of the whole story. Sometimes the plant you didn't expect anything from becomes the plant you end up watching the closest. Candy Rain... You deserve to shine. 🍬✨ A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for providing these genetics, Plagron for the flowering nutrition program, Future of Grow for the Black Series LED, and Lumiflora for bringing the under-canopy lighting into this adventure. And, of course, a massive thank you to the incredible GrowDiaries community for following the 8×8 Adventure and sharing the journey with me. Candy Rain may have started this chapter as the solo survivor... but she's certainly not looking like a survivor anymore. She's looking like she belongs here. Until next week... Growers love and happy growing! 🌱💚

i Think this will be the last week

Hi today week 6 from seed and first week into flowering I switch light 11:30 light and 12:30 darkness to get best results I done some defoliation from lower branches to plant get light and airflow Guys I already see root in top off my soil and its 25L pot this grow amazing 😁😁 They already drunk 2L water every morning will update more photo and video soon

This girl has only been in action! She has got up to the scrog now and I’m confident in her stretch capabilities as she’s about to preflower, it’s the things with photos, even at 4 weeks well let’s say 12-12 from seed as I’ve done this! They tend to flower when they’re ready! But as I said she’s doing amazing and I’m feeding her with an irrigation method as she’s so far at the back I set up a system that’s working tf and helps me take it easy when feeding! May do it to them all on a lazy vibe next time lol maybe lol defoliated her lower fan leaves too and as time goes on I can see I’ll be in some difficulty to prune her and the other rear plants but I will figure it out I’m sure! 😎

I cut it today and it was a nice plant 🍃 and I faced some difficulties in the beginning, but I had a challenge. I thanks to everyone who supported me . I will keep you posted after dry .

My second growroom is built and the girls have moved in. Medical Mass is a new medical cannabis strain with a high CBD content and a low THC level that provides good medical properties without a strong psychoactive effect. This is a mostly indica plant that contains 40% sativa and 60% indica. Critical Mass and CBD rich strain were crossed to create this amazing valuable variety. The plant suits both for indoors and outdoors, for beginner and experienced growers. The strain grows up to 60 - 100 cm tall and produces good yields for such height of about 500 - 550 gr/m2. The plant demonstrates great results even in small spaces. The flowering time takes only 7-8 weeks and the harvest comes in late September. The smoke brings very strong, intense flavors with sweet notes of honey and skunk and an intense pleasant relaxation. Medical Mass is the great choice for each medical user due its small height, ease of growing, fast flowering and of course great medical potency. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 19 Day 7 Now I definetly have realized the importance of right pH-level, my old pH-meter clearly didn't work. The new pH-meter showed 8.1 in my regular tapwater, way too high. So now the buds has started to grow again, they were purple earlier and now since she got water and nutes with right pH-level, the buds are turning back to green. And I also added some more nutes to her menu, 2018-02-03 Added some pics of the grow room after I cleaned the floor and putting the girls back in, and also added a video of the reality of a grower having some problems with too high pH-level. Since I'm still a novice growing cannabis I learn new things everyday, and hopefully the next round will be more or less perfect - perfection needs practice.

Durante esta semana aplicamos aplical Nos fue bastante bien… Hicimos clones, espero salga alguno.

Only 1cm vertical growth this week, but she's been pushing out some leaves! She seems happy so far.

The Caramel Automatic did not germinate. 02.08, installed the DIY Drip Irrigation System. Getting watered 3 times per day, 5L water from the Spider Farmer Dehumidifier with Advanced Nutrients pH Perfect Micro, Grow and Bloom. Also some T.A Calmag. 05.08 Day 12, Topped the Do-Si-Dos and the White Widow. 06.08 Day 13, New Nutrient Solution, topped all Easy Buds and the Wedding Cake. This week, I gave only 1.8ml for the 5l, will see what happens if I lower the calmag a bit. Watering times set to 15 minutes for 2 times per week.

Rosin coming soon

Pfff, explicaros que estas green ak xL son una variedad bastante difícil de cultivar, los cambios ambientales le sientan fatal, y hay que tener cuidado con la alimentación ya que se Sobrefertiliza fácilmente así que ojo, eso por un lado. Por otro si eres un cultivador con varios años de experiencia y todo te sale bien, es probarla, porque el sabor de esta cepa compensa la dificultad de su cultivo. Thc hasta 18% , sativa predominante. Genéticas: Afghan x Colombian x Mexican x Thai Landrades.

Well, today was the last day veging. I defoliated the lower 20%, switched on the red LEDs and set the timer to 12h. I activated the 2nd fan inside the box and also switched on the mini fan connected to the cooled hood. I'll leave it open until the stretch or the smell begins. As soon as there's any smell, I'll close the system by adding the glass shield. Also, I'll save the resulting temperature drop for the later weeks so... let's see... Nutrients added: about nothing. I read somewhere you should flush the plants before the switch so I just feed a normal quantity of water with only a bit of nutrients. It's around a 1/20th of the recommended dose maybe. Let the adventure begin!

Suivre les conseils semaine 1. Une fois que les plantes ont colonisées le pot de 1L, les rempoter dans des pots de 3L (qu'on va arroser avec 3L). Cela doit prendre 4 à 7 jours en moyenne. Surveiller l'aspect des plantes, les pointes des feuilles. Observer le haut et le bas. La couleur de la plante doit être uniforme entre chaque partie sinon c'est qu'elle a un manque ou un excès. Le plus souvent étant donné les engrais complet que nous utilisons il s'agit d'un excès. Dans ce cas il suffira simplement de faire un arrosage à l'eau au lieu de l'engrais et de reprendre les engrais à plus faible dose. Les tiges sont un bonne indicateur de la santé des plantes, hors génétique spécifique, elles doivent être verte et tendre, pas dur. On continue la FIM et la taille de certaines feuilles qui peuvent être gênante.

Its taste is so amazing this round

February 28, 2019 Update: Getting close to the end here. I'm going to start flushing the Cherry Hemp plants this weekend and chop them down the following weekend. The DinaMed, Critical+ and Cream & Cheese should only be a week or two away from flush also. Feeding only MegaCrop & Cal+Mag Pro until the flush. This week I took pictures with the lights off and my camera flash on, I think these pics look better than last weeks. Bonus pic at the end of the view from my bedroom window. I'd love to see my buds get that frosty! 👍

👉Its week 11 and the plant is looking beautiful. Lots of bud sites all over the plant. The plant is looking healthy and seems to be thriving. The tips of the leaves on the new growth at the top of the plant show a brown. I had a day when the outflow of the fertigation was +30. I did a low EC fertigation right away and more regular EC. Since then Ive kept the run off within 10 by preceding ever other fertigation with a low EC feeding with just enough volume to get a few mls of run-off. On the GHE drain to waste feed chart Im on Mid-Bloom mixture. I am guessing it may be 2-3 weeks before its in 'late bloom' stage. Im still mixing full strength and the EC for a batch is 1.5ms. While I believe that by allowing the run-off of fertigation to reach +30 is what cause the brown tips. Im also mindful that I may need to dilute the batch a little. To see the effects of nutrient/media issues it can take a couple of days if its subtle. So if I continue to see the bright green tips of new leaves turn brown then Ill lower dilute the mix. Ive seen no other possible indicators of negative issues. 👉The plant is filling out nicely all over. Marble sized fuzzy pearls are scattered all over. There isnt much aroma besides the typical young cannabis plant smell. Ive squeeze a couple small buds, there are visible trichomes and its sticky to touch, but no notable aroma. The trichomes are coming out all over the place and it should make for a very fuzzy plant. 👉I have removed a couple more small branches and shaded leaves and will only take vegetation that is showing issues or totally shaded and showing lack of vigor. I have installed the bamboo steaks that I will use for support for the branches. I attach them to the metal posts attached to the hoop around the base of the pot. This keeps the steaks out of the media. The Plant is 36" and the early flower stretch seems to have slowed. I have 6 more inches of light adjustment height before I have to resort to spreading the light supports and angling the lights to allow for more height. 👉This coming week should be more of the same as 99 slowly matures. I have a new fan that I may install. Currently I have a 4" 190cfm exhaust fan (vented outside). I anticipate as temperatures drop outside my tent temps with rise like they did last spring. Im not using a cob light this time and surprisingly the temps have stayed steady at 78-80. The new fan is a 6" and 440cfm. I have a variable speed controller to use on it and will hopefully be able to have more control and success at maintaining cool temperatures better during the more mild weather (sounds convoluted I know).
