👑 Godfather OG – Pheno A Week 11 | The Queen Finally Gets Her Portraits 😂👑📸🔥 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And this week... WE HAVE PHOTOGRAPHS. 😂📸👑 Yes, my friends. After somehow managing to lose the individual photographs of our Queen for two consecutive weeks, I can finally confirm that Godfather OG Pheno A has officially returned to the photographic record. And because I felt slightly guilty about the previous weeks... I gave her TWO stacks. 😂👑📸📸 She deserved it. After all, she spent two weeks basically saying: "You keep talking about me, but where are my pictures?" 😂 Fair enough, Your Majesty. Here they are. And honestly... looking at these images, I'm very happy we made the effort. Because this girl is developing beautifully. She's still tall. She's still hungry. She's still demanding. She's still doing absolutely everything in her own way. But now we can actually look closely at what she's been building. So let's give the Queen the spotlight again. 👑🌿🔥 ──────────────────────── 🌱 WEEK 11 – THE QUEEN KEEPS MOVING ──────────────────────── Not much changed physically for the plants this week. And that's actually the point. The room is established. The plants have their structure. The flowering sites are developed. The environment is stable. The irrigation is running. The nutrition has been adjusted. The lighting has been upgraded. And now... we let them work. Godfather OG Pheno A is continuing to grow and develop in exactly the same room as everybody else. Same environment. Same general strategy. Same lighting system. Same irrigation. Same nutritional foundation. Different genetics. And once again, she's showing us her own interpretation of that environment. She's not trying to become Blueberry Muffin. She's not trying to become Cash Express. She's not trying to become Chem Brûlée. She's Godfather OG Pheno A. And she's doing it her way. 👑 ──────────────────────── 📸 THE QUEEN FINALLY GETS HER PORTRAIT SESSION ──────────────────────── Okay... I have to admit something. This week wasn't exactly a massive photography week. I didn't spend hours photographing every plant from every possible angle. But when I got to Godfather OG Pheno A... I looked at her and thought: "Nope. She deserves at least two stacks." 😂 So that's exactly what we did. Two stacks. And I'm really glad we did. Because macro photography gives us a completely different way of looking at the plant. Suddenly, the canopy becomes a landscape. The flowers become mountains. The trichomes become a forest of tiny structures. And those beautiful orange and white pistils weave their way through everything. Looking at these images, you can really see how much resin coverage she's building. The flowers are absolutely covered. The sugar leaves are coated. The surface of the buds is sparkling. And the more you look... the more there is to discover. 🔬🌸💎 ──────────────────────── 💎 A CLOSER LOOK AT HER RESIN ──────────────────────── This is probably the part of the photography that makes me stop every time. You take the image. Then you zoom in. Then you zoom in again. And suddenly... there are trichomes everywhere. 😂💎🌿 Godfather OG Pheno A is showing some beautiful resin development. The macro stacks reveal layers upon layers of trichomes sitting across the flower structure. Some areas look almost completely covered. Others show the green floral tissue underneath, surrounded by sparkling resin. And then you have those pistils running through everything, giving the flowers that beautiful contrast between green, white and orange. It's one of those moments where photography becomes more than simply documenting the plant. It becomes a way of seeing something that your eyes simply can't appreciate in the same way. The naked eye says: "That's a frosty flower." The macro stack says: "Look at ALL of this." 😂 🔬💎🌸 ──────────────────────── 👑 STILL THE SAME HUNGRY QUEEN ──────────────────────── And yes... before anyone thinks the Queen has suddenly become polite... No. 😂🍽️👑 She's still hungry. Godfather OG Pheno A continues to be one of the more demanding phenotypes in the room. That characteristic hasn't disappeared. If anything, it has become part of her identity throughout this run. She's a large plant. She's got a substantial structure. She's supporting a lot of foliage. She's developing flowers throughout that structure. And she's using the resources available to her. That's one of the things I find so fascinating about running multiple phenotypes together. We can give the room a consistent foundation... and then watch the plants tell us what they think about it. Some are quieter. Some are more compact. Some are more relaxed. And then there's Godfather OG Pheno A. 😂👑 "More, please." She hasn't changed her position on the matter. ──────────────────────── 🌿 SAME ROOM – DIFFERENT STORY ──────────────────────── This is really the heart of the 8×8 Adventure. Twelve plants. One room. One general environment. And twelve completely different conversations happening between the genetics and that environment. Godfather OG Pheno A is giving us one of the more obvious examples. She's tall. She's vigorous. She's hungry. She's substantial. She's built her own architecture. And now she's developing flowers across that architecture. The environment hasn't been specially designed for her. She's adapting to the same environment as everyone else. And that's exactly what makes the comparison interesting. We're not trying to force every plant into the same shape. We're observing. We're documenting. And we're allowing the genetics to speak. This Queen has certainly found her voice. 😂👑🌿 ──────────────────────── 💡 MORE PHOTONS – SAME QUEEN ──────────────────────── And of course... we have another major change to talk about this week. The room is now running with the two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures. When we first introduced them, the available light was more than we wanted to run at full output. So instead of simply throwing everything at the plants... we reduced the power. We're now running approximately 59% power from the plug. And we're seeing around: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with the intensity naturally decreasing depending on plant height and position. And I really like this setup. Because we're not chasing maximum power. We're creating capability. We have more lighting available when we need it... without needing to run every fixture flat out. That means more flexibility. More control. And, importantly, no reason to waste electricity simply because the fixtures are capable of producing more. The Queen doesn't need us to turn the room into a miniature sun. 😂☀️👑 She just needs access to the photons she can actually use. ──────────────────────── ☀️ PHOTONS MEET PLANT ARCHITECTURE ──────────────────────── And this is where Godfather OG Pheno A becomes particularly interesting. She's around 169 cm tall. She's not a small, compact plant. She's a three-dimensional structure occupying a significant amount of vertical space. So when we talk about ~1,500 PPFD at the upper canopy, that's only part of the story. The light interacts with the entire structure. Leaves intercept photons. Some light passes through. Some reaches deeper. Some reflects. Some is absorbed lower in the canopy. And then we have the additional Lumiflora lighting helping reach areas that naturally receive less direct illumination. The plant isn't a flat surface. She's a living structure. A three-dimensional photon-catching machine. 😂💡🌿 And this Queen has plenty of surface area available for those photons to meet. ──────────────────────── 💡 FUTURE OF GROW – A BIG THANK YOU ──────────────────────── I also want to take a moment to give another big shoutout to Future of Grow. They supplied the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures for us to test in this adventure, and they've made a very interesting difference to the lighting capacity of the room. The beauty of having more available power isn't necessarily running everything at maximum. It's having headroom. It's having options. It's being able to distribute light across the room while controlling the actual output we're using. And right now... ~59% from the plug is giving us the ability to work around that ~1,500 PPFD upper-canopy target. That's a pretty impressive amount of light without needing to push the fixtures anywhere near their maximum. So thank you, Future of Grow, for giving us the opportunity to put these fixtures through their paces. 💚💡☀️ ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FLOWERS ARE SPEAKING FOR THEMSELVES ──────────────────────── And now that we actually have photographs again... I think the flowers deserve a little attention. 😂📸 The macro stacks show a plant that is clearly well into her flowering development. The floral structures are established. The pistils are developing beautifully. The resin coverage is becoming increasingly obvious. And there's that wonderful mixture of green flower tissue, white trichomes and orange pistils that makes every macro image look completely different from the one before it. This is the stage where I really enjoy documenting the plants. Because the changes aren't always dramatic from one day to the next. But put photographs from different weeks beside each other... and suddenly you can see the story. The plant has changed. The flowers have changed. The resin has changed. The structure has changed. And all those small changes add up. 🌸💎🌿 ──────────────────────── 🌿 LITTLE INTERVENTION – LOTS OF OBSERVATION ──────────────────────── Just like with the other girls... we didn't do much physically this week. And that's intentional. The major structural work has already happened. The plants are flowering. Healthy leaves are still doing their job. The flowers are developing. The root zones are being supplied. The environment is stable. So there isn't much reason for me to walk in there every day looking for something to cut. 😂✂️ Sometimes the best thing a grower can do is... nothing. Watch. Observe. Measure. Adjust when necessary. And let the plant actually grow. Godfather OG Pheno A certainly isn't asking me to interfere. She's busy enough doing her own thing. 😂👑 ──────────────────────── ⚗️ FEEDING – THE MENU HAS BEEN INCREASED ──────────────────────── This week we also increased the nutrition slightly, just like with the rest of the room. Terra Bloom moved from: 🌱 2.2 ml/L → 2.3 ml/L The rest of her current feeding remains: 🌱 Terra Bloom – 2.3 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH adjusted as required That small increase brought the room EC up a little. Current EC is around: ⚡ ~2.14 mS/cm And once again... the Queen is probably happy about this. 😂🍽️👑 Although I wouldn't be surprised if she sends another royal request next week. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ WEEK 11 ROOM CONDITIONS ──────────────────────── The room continues to remain very stable. Current conditions are approximately: 🌡️ Day temperature: ~26.5°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~26°C 💧 RH: ~61% ⚗️ pH: ~6.02 ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm 💦 Nutrient solution: ~25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~25°C 💨 CO₂: ~693 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 💧 Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h And again... the numbers are only one part of the story. The most important thing is how the plants are responding. And Godfather OG Pheno A is responding with: 🌿 Growth 🌸 Flower development 💎 Resin 🍽️ Appetite 👑 Personality That's a pretty good report card. ──────────────────────── 💨 SAME ENVIRONMENT – LET HER WORK ──────────────────────── At this point in the run, my main job is becoming increasingly simple. Keep the environment stable. Keep the irrigation consistent. Keep nutrition appropriate. Keep the airflow moving. Keep the lighting where we want it. And observe. The plant already knows what she's doing. Godfather OG Pheno A has spent the entire run building the structure that she's now using to support these flowers. So now we get to watch the payoff. All those branches. All those leaves. All those photons. All that root activity. All those days of growth. Coming together in these flowers. That's the part of the grow that I love. 🌿➡️🌸 ──────────────────────── 🔬 TWO STACKS FOR THE QUEEN ──────────────────────── And I think the two macro stacks were absolutely justified. 😂👑📸 After two weeks without her own photographic feature... she was owed. And honestly, these images remind me why I love doing stacked macro photography so much. A single photograph can show you a beautiful flower. A focus stack can reveal an entire world. Every tiny trichome becomes visible. Every little variation in the surface becomes part of the image. You start seeing structures that you simply don't notice when standing in front of the plant. And with Godfather OG Pheno A... there is certainly plenty to look at. 💎💎💎 So yes. Two stacks. Because apparently the Queen's photographic allowance had been accumulating interest. 😂👑📸 ──────────────────────── 🔮 WHAT COMES NEXT? ──────────────────────── Now we continue watching. The plant is established. The flowers are developing. The resin is becoming more obvious. The nutrition has been increased slightly. The lighting environment has been expanded. And the Queen is still doing what she does best. Growing. Eating. Flowering. And occasionally making me feel like I'm not feeding her enough. 😂🍽️👑 I'm curious to see how the flowers continue developing from here. I'm curious to see how the resin expression progresses. And I'm especially curious to see what the next macro session reveals. Because now that we've finally got her photographic record back... I'm not losing it again. 😂📸 I hope. ──────────────────────── 💭 FINAL THOUGHTS – THE QUEEN IS BACK ON CAMERA ──────────────────────── So... Week 11. And for once... we actually have individual photographs of Godfather OG Pheno A. 😂👑📸 After two weeks of photographic disappearance, the Queen has officially returned to the camera. And honestly? She looks fantastic. She's still tall. She's still hungry. She's still demanding. She's still building. She's still catching photons. And she's still developing those beautiful flowers that have made her such an interesting phenotype to follow. The room hasn't changed specifically for her. The environment remains shared. The lighting has been upgraded for the whole room. The nutrition has been increased for the whole room. And yet... she continues to interpret everything in her own way. That's the experiment. That's the beauty of phenotypes. Same room. Same photons. Same general care. Different genetics. Different expression. Different story. And Godfather OG Pheno A is definitely writing her own. 👑🌿💡🌸💎🔥 This week, she finally got her photographs. Two beautiful stacks. And I think we can all agree... she was worth the wait. 😂📸👑 ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU ──────────────────────── As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share the experience with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Godfather OG genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore these different phenotypes. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the room. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to explore what this expanded lighting setup can do. 💡☀️🌿 Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the deeper and lower areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep everything under control behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by to see what these girls are doing. It genuinely means a lot. 💚 This 8×8 Adventure continues to be such a fascinating experience. Twelve plants. One room. One shared environment. And twelve completely different stories. And Godfather OG Pheno A? She's still one of the loudest characters in the room. 😂👑 She's hungry. She's demanding. She's tall. She's beautiful. She's covered in developing flowers and resin. And apparently... she also expects a proper photography budget. 😂📸👑 Fair enough. She earned it. So let's keep those photons flying. Let's keep watching the flowers develop. Let's keep documenting the differences. And most importantly... let's let the Queen shine. 👑🌿💡🌸💎🔥 Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 And this time... I actually have the photographs to prove it. 😂📸👑

Perdi mais uma semente , agora vamos tocar essas duas para ver se elas crescem bem saudáveis e fortes. Estão com um bom tamanho vieram para o quintal, ainda pode ter algum ataque de pássaros mas preciso do espaço na estufa para novas sementes que germinaram. Perdi mais uma só restou uma , mas ela está bem .

I am dropping a Do-si-Dos auto from Zamnesia seeds. I lightly scuffed both ends, and dropped it in a glass of water.in 24 to 48 hours when it starts a tap root. I will then drop it in rockwool, and dome till sprout. 🤞🏻 for a great grow. Thank you Medic Grow, and Zamnesia seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Still extraordinarily green. Buds forming nicely. Beginning to increase the nutrients. Slow and steady, this girl.

Continuing flush. Planning on harvest this week. Started the flush a bit early on the CBD and probably should have chopped a week ago, but lesson learned. Both plants have a bit of yellowing on the sugar leaves and the tops of the buds (especially the CBD feel a bit crisp and are browning. Hopefully won't affect much other than appearance since this is just for personal use anyway! Will update soon with the harvest details once the initial drying is done.

Dopo un bella blocco per over di nutrienti, abbasso ec e provo a farla ripartire, da un ec oltre i 3500 siamo scesi a 1600... continuerò fino a che non tornano a mangiare, per poi integrare qualche boost

She’s getting closer to chop! I would say about another 1.5weeks max on this girl.. buds are getting fat and frosty and she is full of blueberry terps! I’ve been giving her a diastatic malted barley tea with molasses and bokashi bran to help boost nutrient cycling and she’s been responding very well to that! Was hoping for more anthocyanins but maybe they will appear closer to harvest.

Ich hab mit der Spülung begonnen. Gespült wird für 1-2 Wochen.

What was it like this week? It was irritating. This site is sucking. Upload a vid that takes so long to upload to just have the save sign spin and spin. Then have to reupload. Your admin sucks the bag.

Still vegging strong! Haha they are about the size I want before I flip. One of the center plants was a late germination and is a week behind I was trying to let it catch up in height and let it stretch out a bit more before I flipped but I’m getting close to just doing it. They are all really full and honestly massive haha it’s not usually my style to just let them grow and not do any defoliation but hey trying something new. I will at some point thin them out a bit. I will do a bit of bottom lollipoping before I flip for sure just to help with access for watering later on. Not much else to report, thanks for stopping by snd as always 🍻

..somit geht die 4 Blütewoche zuende. Langsam wirds frostig ?

Well today the Purp kush has yellow leaves at the very bottom two 🍃 going to ask whether or not I can pin in down to either too much or too little of something… light water or nutes!! Unfortunately I’m not to sure yet about these three being I have a new light plus any light is new to me…lol and I didn’t use a soil that has any nutrients(Ocean forest)+(unknown medium) I was desperate so made the choice!!! Almost done with Veg going into flower!! I have my second purp kush plant is 2 weeks behind this plant.. But let’s see I’ve topped her and used lst and I’ve also used stakes to position the girl where she can receive the most light on her leaves!! Thoughts??

She shot up quite a bit. Frosty on frosty already and she is just starting to swell. Leaves still twist a little but doesn’t seem to matter. Not stacking on the colas but I feel the buds are going to be big and tight.

Week 10 started very well, maybe too much nitrogen during the flowering period, this caused a lot of sugar leaves to grow inside the buds! The cycle will end today or at most in 3 days. GC is at week 8 (54 days) OS is at week 10 (64 days)

This plant looks absolutely fantastic, great development in this 4 weeks, she has big leaves and she's ready to get big!! She'll be Transplanted and trained very very soon, can't wait!! 🤤🔝👨‍🌾

Hello m8 welcome to this journey with me in this diary will have very interesting strains hope u find something useful O.G. Kush Titanium - [ ] 1st week Veg: germinated in substrate lighting very close so it jets medium high humidity after the 3rd day they started sprouting - [ ] 2nd week Veg: this week my ventilator broke down and as the temperature stayed very warm nothing developed much - [ ] 3rd week Veg:fortunately this week i had fixed the ventilation and the temperature has go down a bit allowing the little plants to develop and reinforce - [ ] 4th week: - [ ] 5th week Veg: - [ ] 6th week Veg - [ ] 7th week Veg - [ ] 1st week Fl - [ ] 2nd week Fl - [ ] 3rd week Fl - [ ] 4th week Fl - [ ] 5th week Fl - [ ] 6th week Fl - [ ] 7th week Fl if this was useful please like and follow

Bonjour à tous , Ont peux dire que maintenant la floraison à commencé pour ces demoiselles , certaines sont encore en retard , en près floraisons je dirais mais ça avance ! Les journee diminue et donc la nuit arrive plus tôt dans la journée Cependant je ne sais pas pourquoi celles ci ne sont pas toutes au même niveau... La semaine dernière je voulais arrêter l'apport en azote mais je vois qu'il y a de grosse carrence donc je repars sur une production de purin d'ortie que je continuerais à apporter en plus petite quantité au long des semaines avenir afin qu'il n'y est plus de carrence.... L'odeur est forte à présent , réellement forte.. 🙌😁 Je continue le palissage / LST tous les 2 à 3 jours et cela deviens de plus en plus compliqué mais j'aime ça 😂🍀 J'ai ajouté de la cendre de bois au pieds de ces demoiselles et continue à leurs fournir des peau de bananes à foison !!!! Je pense fournir plus de photo durant cette semaine en espérant que l'azote apporté aura un réel impact pour épargné ces carrence Petit retour également de la Black Domina 0 qui se porte à merveille dehors avec un très beau début de floraison !! Yoouupiii Voila voilà 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

At the end of the second week of bloom the Dough Boy feminised is doing well with no signs of deficiency. Her leaves are a stable green the stem is a healthy pale green and she has grown a stable 8cm. There’s signs of bloom with white stigmas appearing and she will receive feeding as required. Caution is needed until the lady consumes more! The Dough Boy feminised stands at approximately 58cm ta
