girls are growing well. changed water change out cycle to replacing 1/3 of entire resevoir every 3 days. The theory is that i will be able to transition changes to nutrients slowly to identify any changes to the girls. one girl showing sign of what i believe to be calcium deficiency.(picture attached)

Week 2 - Chem Brulee (Pheno A) 🌱 Hello everyone, and welcome back to another update from the 8×8 Adventure! For those joining us for the first time, this project follows multiple Zamnesia cultivars and phenotypes grown side-by-side under a 12/12-from-seed schedule. Every phenotype receives its own dedicated diary so we can document individual development, compare expressions, and follow each plant’s unique journey from seed to harvest. Rather than combining multiple plants into a single report, each phenotype receives its own diary. Even seeds from the same pack can express themselves differently, and documenting those differences is one of the most enjoyable parts of the project. This run remains under a 12/12 light schedule from the very first day of life. The goal isn’t massive vegetative plants, but rather a complete seed-to-harvest exploration of genetic expression, plant structure, vigor, and flowering performance. Week 2 Overview The second week brought another excellent round of growth across the entire 8×8 Adventure. The room continues settling into a comfortable rhythm, with all cultivars responding positively to the gradual increases in light intensity and nutrition. Seedlings are beginning their transition into young vegetative plants, and growth rates have noticeably accelerated compared to the first week. Lighting intensity now sits around 370 µmol/m²/s throughout the room, providing plenty of energy while remaining perfectly appropriate for this stage of development. Environmental conditions remained stable throughout the week: • Light Schedule: 12/12 • Day Temperature: 27°C • Night Temperature: 25°C • Relative Humidity: 55% • Solution Temperature: 20.1°C • Substrate Temperature: 21°C • CO₂: Ambient (~600 ppm) Watering remained controlled and deliberate. Each plant received approximately 250 ml on Day 8 and another 250 ml on Day 11. Nutrient levels continued increasing gradually as the plants demonstrated they were ready for more food. Week-ending values: • EC: 0.9 mS/cm • pH: 6.0 Current feeding schedule: • Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Power Roots – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L The response throughout the room has been excellent, with healthy color, strong growth, and no signs of nutrient stress. Chem Brulee Pheno A If Week 1 introduced us to Chem Brulee Pheno A, Week 2 allowed her personality to begin stepping into the spotlight. This phenotype continues developing beautifully and already stands apart from many of the other plants in the room. One characteristic immediately catches the eye. The petioles—the stems connecting the leaves to the main stalk—are noticeably longer than many of the neighboring plants. This gives the canopy a more open and elegant appearance while allowing each leaf plenty of space to capture light. Combined with her broad, rounded leaf shape, the result is a plant that feels distinct and recognizable even from across the room. It’s one of those small details that makes phenotype hunting so fascinating. Even at this young age, you can already see individual character beginning to emerge. Development Notes Growth throughout the week was strong and consistent. The plant has now developed multiple sets of mature leaves, with beautiful five-finger leaves becoming well established. Coloration remains excellent from top to bottom. New growth emerges healthy and vibrant, while older leaves maintain a rich green appearance that suggests the current feeding program is landing exactly where it should. What stands out most is the structure. The combination of those longer leaf stems and the broader leaf shape creates a plant that appears slightly more open and spacious than some of her neighbors. Nothing looks stretched. Nothing looks weak. Instead, everything appears balanced and intentional. She simply has her own architectural style. And it is a very attractive one. A Distinct Chem Brulee Expression One of the joys of running multiple cultivars and phenotypes side by side is watching these differences reveal themselves week after week. Chem Brulee Pheno A already feels unique. While some plants focus on stacking tight growth close to the stem, this phenotype seems comfortable spreading her leaves outward and creating a broader visual footprint. The result is a plant that looks both elegant and vigorous at the same time. It is still early in the journey, but she is already becoming one of the more visually distinctive plants in the room. Room Life The humidifier continues working steadily to maintain stable humidity levels as plant biomass increases. Environmental control remains one of the biggest priorities during these early stages, and the room is responding exactly as hoped. The plants continue receiving stable conditions, gradual increases in nutrition, and appropriate light intensity as they establish themselves. Mr. Baggy also remains hard at work carrying out his weekly inspection duties. His responsibilities currently include: • Monitoring plant development • Supervising photography sessions • Inspecting environmental conditions • Providing motivational support • Looking suspiciously important in photographs Performance reviews remain ongoing. Looking Ahead If growth continues at the current pace, next week should bring: • Additional node development • Larger five-finger leaves • Increased canopy width • Stronger stem development • Further phenotype differentiation • Continued acceleration in overall growth I am particularly curious to see how those longer leaf stems influence the plant’s structure as the canopy begins expanding. It is already one of her defining characteristics and may become even more noticeable as she matures. Final Thoughts Week 2 has been another very encouraging step forward for Chem Brulee Pheno A. Healthy color. Strong growth. Excellent response to feeding. And perhaps most importantly, a unique structure that already distinguishes her from many of the neighboring plants. The longer petioles, broad leaves, and open architecture give this phenotype a personality all her own. She is healthy, vigorous, and steadily building a strong foundation for the weeks ahead. Exactly what we hope to see at this stage of the journey. A huge thank you to everyone following along, commenting, sharing advice, and supporting the project. Special thanks to Zamnesia, Plagron, Future of Grow, and everyone helping make this adventure possible. Most importantly, thank you to the growing community. Your support, encouragement, shared knowledge, and passion are what make documenting projects like this so rewarding. Thank you for stopping by, and I’ll see you all next week for another update from the 8×8 Adventure. Growers Love everyone.🌱💚

Fine tuning the heater temp, but all seems stable now. Sorry about the pics with the grow light, I will figure out how to filter it. Compared to other White Widow diaries, my girls seems to be performing normally.

Recta final!! 25/12 Solo queda el secado. Ha sido un bonito regalo de Navidad. 2kg húmedos y ahora a secar. Las tengo secando en el mismo armario. Echan un fuerte olor a mango. La verdad que ha sido muy guay sacar adelante este proyecto pero ha requerido mucho esfuerzo y también estudiar mucho, para ser la primera vez muy bien. Deseando mucho mucho probarla. Espero que nos guste mucho. Feliz Navidad para todos!!! Seguimos.. 6 días colgadas y 4 en una malla de secado.. 5/1/25 en botes de curado, les he puesto un termohigrometro en los botes y está a 60 de humedad así qir no voy a hacer nada más que abrir y cerrar hasta que estén listas.. ya os

Not actually sure if end of week 5, I will check at some point maybe :P Removed 3 Hermies, will check think 1 wasn't random/"?". Pinched tops of pretty much all plants. Chopped the males up a bit, probably just remove them soon anyways, but some super early pollination would be okay I rate. Maybe try grow like, a carrot, pumpkin, between or where I removed males. Guess today I feed a lil bit and water well otherwise. About 700ml per plant now.

Germinated for 24 hours in a glass of water, 48 hours in a paper towel and then I planted them into biodegradable seedling pots. Northern Lights looking a bit ahead of the Dosidos seeds but that was expected I’ve grown Northern Lights before and they sprout real quick. One of the Dosidos’ first true leaves is looking a bit wonky but we’ll see how it goes I suppose.

- Second Week Started with a light dosage of Base A - Base B - Vege - Silica - around 0.5 ML per Liter Kitty decided to be curious and do a taste test while I was changing the reservoir Had a planned trip so I loaded up the water and left her to chill, hopefully my cat didn't do much damage.

Hello again’ Misty gorilla i also doing great. It was a strange plant from the beginning but it keeps up with the rest of the crew. It wont be my masterplant but i hope the quality will be there. On the badside, ive had 2 herma’s in my tent, I hope I removed them on time! Now i will check every 2 days. See you next week!

Just feeding her water and getting her ready for harvest, she’s almost there. Buds are really full and heavy. Branches are tilting down from the weight. I believe, i’ll harvest at the end of this week, but the rain might might put a dampner on that.

The Ganja Gelato girls are done! This was this their last week. I had been watching the trichomes closely daily, and by Thursday (day 77), they were ready. A nice mix of almost all cloudy and a few ambers peeking through 😋. They had 4 full water feeds to runoff, so I feel that they are ready to go. I no longer do a 48 hour dark period before harvest, so it’s happening, happy Gardening 🇨🇦❤️🌱😎💨

I still have a few leafs I have to remove. But this girl has bounced back. This strain seems to do better on a lower dose of nutrients. I raised up the light a few inch’s. I will be flipping her in a week or two, I would love loke to allow a little more growth. This strain is definitely a beginner statin. This plant has been through so much do to my errors. Still not much smell. I am hoping she will flower nicely after everything. All we can do is watch.

11/30-12/5: Major stretch from the Muscadine Wine's and one of the Sucrose Overdose. I supercropped and tied down the apex on the big SO and I'll probably have to supercrop both MW's before it's over. The Platonium and GG4 aren't stretching vertically nearly as quickly, but have massive leaves and huge diameters (problem children). Sugar Bref is a shorty, like the Berry Bomb, but both have very thick stalks and may, yet, do some stretching. Both MW's and the big SO not only have red stems, but they have red leaf veins and the outer edges of the fan leaves have a nice pale-green to red gradient coloration....swexy!😍

Enjoying her progress over the last week. Lowered humidity today a tad to slightly increase vpd. Also lowered light a few inches and may do so again. Will keep it here until we progress in flowering. Expect to start LST this week. Will include plant and light height and distance details once I begin LST. Her sister, punch berry cookies, moved to flower tent. PoG will finish in veg tent, alone, as I’m shutting down for vacation in April. Video/photos taken 14 days after breaking soil.
