Can’t say I’m not disappointed, I can say it was probably caused by wrong nutrition and it’s good to say that I have the opportunity to re run it and either way on the next run in 2 weeks or so is watermelon candy back to back one trimmed topped etc and one not so I can see if it actually makes a difference as I’ve done this on its own and not in a visual to see together so will be good to do! But stay tuned she’s still a great smelling flower! Smells like a nice Cali I smoked a while back part of the paris packs and she’s frosting over already as she’s setting herself to finalise!

Sorry for the late update. It's been a hectic week at home and I barely had time to do the basic work. Bit of a nightmare also. These Pinapple are flying along and probably have 2 mabey 2,1/2 weeks left until harvest. I'm now getting leaf damage on both plants despite keeping EC below 1.8 at all times. Really cant put my finger on it but I've decided just to let them run out and ill try and be more thorough on my next attempt with this strain. Really happy with them despite that and bud structure is looking really great.

💜 Week 6 – Purple CousKush Auto (Pheno A) Every Branch Finds Its Purpose One of the greatest joys of growing multiple phenotypes is watching each plant reveal its own personality over time. Some rush into flower with explosive enthusiasm, while others take their time, quietly building the structure that will support everything to come. Since germination, this Purple CousKush has chosen the second path. Growing under the same conditions as every other lady in the 8×8 Adventure, she has patiently developed an elegant framework before fully committing her energy to bloom. Now, as Week 6 unfolds, that patience is beginning to pay off. The structure she spent weeks building is finally coming to life, with every branch proudly carrying fresh clusters of white pistils. Rather than relying on a single dominant cola, she is transforming into a beautifully balanced plant where each branch has a role to play. Sometimes the best performances begin with a slow introduction. 🌱 Plant Development This week has been all about progression. Standing at approximately 76 cm, she remains one of the taller ladies in the 8×8 Adventure, displaying a graceful sativa-leaning structure with long internodes and excellent spacing between flowering sites. The stretch is still present but beginning to settle, allowing the plant to redirect more of her energy towards flower production. Bud sites are now clearly established across every branch, and each day the clusters of bright white pistils become a little larger and a little more defined. The low-stress training performed during the early weeks continues to show its value. Light penetrates deep into the canopy, airflow remains excellent, and nearly every branch has developed into a potential flowering top. It's easy to imagine how these long stems will eventually carry elegant, well-stacked colas from top to bottom. She isn't trying to be the most compact plant in the room. She's building something entirely different. 🌿 Environment & Growing Conditions Environmental conditions remained stable throughout the week, allowing uninterrupted development. • 12/12 light schedule from seed • Future of Grow Black Series LED delivering approximately 850 PPFD • Mammoth Pro tent with excellent airflow • Day temperature around 29°C • Night temperature around 25°C • Relative humidity averaging 60% • CO₂ approximately 639 ppm • pH 6.0 • EC 1.78 mS/cm The reduction in humidity compared to previous weeks has created an ideal environment for flowering, while the stable temperatures continue encouraging healthy growth without signs of stress. The foliage remains vibrant, the stems continue strengthening, and every indication suggests she's thoroughly enjoying the conditions provided. 💧 Feeding Program Growing in a 15 L Plagron Lightmix container and hand-watered with approximately 0.9 litres per irrigation, she continues responding beautifully to the current feeding schedule. This week's nutrient solution consisted of: • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L The transition into full bloom nutrition has been seamless. Leaf colour remains healthy and balanced, while the developing flowers continue to expand without showing signs of deficiency or excess. Sometimes the best adjustment is simply knowing when not to change what is already working. 🌸 Phenotype Notes This Purple CousKush continues to remind me why growing from seed is always such a rewarding experience. Despite sharing identical genetics, environment, nutrition and lighting with the other plants in this project, she has developed an entirely unique character. Where some phenotypes chose density and compact growth, this lady has embraced height, openness and elegant branching. Her long internodes may appear unusual at first glance, but they're creating a structure with excellent light penetration and airflow—qualities that often become major advantages as flowering progresses. Rather than comparing her with the others, I prefer appreciating what makes her different. Every phenotype has something to teach us. 🔍 Looking Ahead With the majority of the stretch now behind her, I expect the coming weeks to focus increasingly on flower production. The framework is already in place. Now comes the exciting part. Each flowering site should gradually begin stacking along those beautifully spaced branches, slowly transforming this elegant structure into a canopy filled with long, resin-covered colas. If she continues following the path she's chosen so far, I wouldn't be surprised if she finishes with a very refined, classic sativa-style appearance despite her autoflower genetics. She's written the introduction. Now the story begins to unfold. 💭 Final Thoughts This week reminded me that successful cultivation isn't about making every plant look the same. It's about understanding that each one has its own rhythm, its own priorities and its own way of expressing the genetics hidden inside a tiny seed. This Purple CousKush has never tried to compete with the others. She simply continues becoming the best version of herself. Healthy. Elegant. Balanced. Confident. Watching that transformation unfold is one of the greatest rewards of this entire 8×8 Adventure. Sometimes the tallest stories are written one branch at a time. 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure. Your encouragement, questions and shared experiences continue to make this project far more rewarding than if I were growing alone. A special thank you to the incredible companies helping make this grow possible: 💜 Zamnesia for the fantastic genetics. 💜 Plagron for providing the nutrition that keeps these ladies thriving. 💜 Future of Grow for the outstanding lighting. 💜 TrolMaster for maintaining such a stable environment throughout every stage of the grow. And finally, thank you to the entire GrowDiaries community. Whether you've been here since day one or have only recently joined this adventure, I truly appreciate every visit, every comment and every word of encouragement. Until next week... Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💚

They’re looking extremely healthy..gave em their first nute feed with the last watering seem to be doing fairly well..fimmed the GG and LST. Did not touch the unkown as it looks smaller to be the same age. Running GHE base line with few extra supplements. ****UPDATE**** Both are LST’d..might rethink the way I tie them. Going for a “coil” type look, we’ll see though. They’re looking great! Hoping for females!

Hi guys! long time no see. its been a long journey this pass year thinking about popping some beans. Well the day has come, i couldn't take it any longer. If you've followed my previous diary, i was waiting for this house I'm living at to sell but its been slow since march and i really feel like its going to be on market for a while with going price. Im taking a gamble here and if it does happen to sell i got 60 day or so to move out and i think worse comes to worse i got a friend who can transport them safely and care for them while i move. Lets get this going !! Femenized M39 Granddady ( m39xGranddaddy purple ) I'm very eager to see these girls grow big ! They are currently substrate germinating. I bought 5 from Q.C.S and they threw in 4 Quebec White Feminized seeds which i donated to a friend who hasn't planted them yet. Very satisfied with the packaging Q.C.S provided and the bonus. Eager to see you guys follow these girls through their life ! Thanks for popping by. Edit: I was using a no name peat I had laying around that had dried out, I picked up an organic micro active pro mix peat today and fished out the seeds. They had successfully germinated and I picked them up with tweezer ever so gently and placed into new smaller cups. I think some may frown and say I should have left them but the tap roots were only like 1cm just coming out. In my opinion no different than grabbing em off a wet paper towel. I just wanted them to have best success at growing strong with healthier medium. I have faith i did the right move for better seedlings. 8) see you guys when we have life appearing outside the cup :D we also plan on doing this whole grow Organic. Will be my first time all Organic Day 4, Seedlings are emerged and strong. Light is set to 21 inches from the seedlings. Ive mixed the live soil two weeks early and will continue to stir daily. I fed the live soil ( pro mix organic ) Gaia Green 4-4-4, Epsom salt at 1 teaspoon per litre. and black earth.(documented in a book ) with home made fruit and egg shell compost. eyed up a 1:3 ratio of perlite. 1:3 Worm casting. I gave the soil a treatment of Monkey Juice microbes. Should be some very healthy soil when it comes time to use it. PPE arrived aswell, not taking chances with contamination this time as it made my last grow very challenging. Added a clip of grow room im using. Fresh air induction and exhaust running to outside the house with a carbon filter installed.

Hung them to dry today, very happy to say I have found 3 very very good keeper phenos which doesn’t surprise me as I have grown many seeds of this before. The pictures and video tell more than words can say. I have named my favourite pheno ‘john wayne’ as I have a convoy swagger about my walk every time I look at her😂 I lost this pheno a few months ago and so relieved to have her back plus two other great phenos. Barneys absolutely provides some real fire genetics and I have been a fan since blue cheese and pineapple chunk were released many years ago.

Variety prone to suffer from Botrytis because it develops super thick and compact buds. I harvested it a week earlier than expected when the first infected buds appeared. Beautiful plant, with a spectacular structure and that when green lives up to its name and smells delicious. The harvest was on 02/March equivalent to 02/September in the northern hemisphere. The yield was 1016 g of dried and bottled buds.

27.2.25: Watermelon 🍉 and Purple Lemonade 💜🍋 are both far below the scrog net, they've definitely stopped stretching now. My LST on these was much worse than even just using the net. 😅 That was certainly a valuable takeaway. I'm sure Purple Lemonade 💜🍋 will be good. Watermelon 🍉 was so stunted. It's not a tall strain, usually either, but nevertheless, the buds there are looking very frosty and are very, very sticky! 😅 Should be a good smoke, eventually, 🤗 just won't be much to bag unfortunately.

I did a top dressing with the dynomyco last week and washed it into my coco upon watering. Not sure if the extra fungus helps or not, but can't hurt. Thc bomb is getting rather large for a 100 watt spider farmer SF-1000 light. I am running the board at 11 to 12 inches from tops of plant. Which is safest I can get the light in my growing conditions. I have been steadily keeping upped Amounts of phosphorus and potassium. While trying to reduce nitrogen levels. I been keeping underside clear. Waiting for the flowers to start stacking up. Looks like this will be a longer grow. Thanks again spider farmer, and bomb seeds🌱👍 Thanks again to everyone in the grow diaries community. I really appreciate everyone that shows their support through likes, and follows. Also like to invite everyone to my YouTube channel for more cannabis related videos. Extra thanks to my subscribers there😀😀😀

Esta semana aplique la tecnica lst. Hubiera preferido hacerlo antes pero estaba esperando por que antes queria trasplantarlas. Pero no he podido comprar macetas, ni el medio de cultivo. Entonces decidi hacerlo en las macetas actuales para comenzar a guiar la planta, ya que va creciendo muy rapido. Junto con la tecnica lst tambien hice defoliacion a todas las plantas. Comence a regar con fertilizante en polvo Green House para la etapa de vegetacion. Uso 0.5g / 1L . Ocupo unos 2L para regar cada planta.
