🌿 White Widow – Week 5 Flower (12/12 from Seed) This week marks a very special stage in the journey of our legendary White Widow. She’s fully into flower mode now, and what a sight she is. Her structure remains compact and elegant, but her buds are bulking beautifully. The trichomes are already covering her in a frosty layer, and her pistils stand out with those iconic, vibrant white hairs that give her such presence. Her leaves are a deep, rich green, almost darker than the sisters around her. This makes me wonder if she might show us some darker expressions as the weeks progress. It’s one of those fascinating mysteries of White Widow, you never really know until she decides to reveal it. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition This week’s recipe combines Plagron and Aptus inputs, working hand in hand: • Plagron • Power Buds → flower formation boost • Sugar Royal → metabolism & terpene support • Green Sensation → bulking, quality, and finishing power • Aptus • All-in-One Liquid → full-spectrum base feed • CalMag Boost → structural support & deficiency prevention • Regulator → stress resistance & nutrient uptake enhancer 💡 Even though the super soil is reading around 5.75 NPK and already contains nutrients, we’re boosting her further because this girl is on a 12/12 (11/13) from seed shuttle. Her timeline is faster, so we want to see how far she can go and what she can take without stress. This is a balancing act, pushing her potential while respecting her limits. ⸻ ⚖️ 12/12 from Seed vs. Normal Veg + Flower Cycle For those joining now, here’s why White Widow looks the way she does: • Normal Cycle (Veg + Flower): • Weeks of 18/6 light first → plants grow tall, with big root systems. • 12/12 flip triggers stretch → often 2–3× size increase. • 12/12 (or 11/13) from Seed: • No long veg phase → plant stays smaller and more compact. • Buds start forming early → less size, but quicker cycles. • Ideal for experiments, time-saving, or small grows. 👉 Our White Widow is a prime example: compact frame, dense cola, side branches forming golf-ball buds. Small in stature, but already showing big personality. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment • Temperature: ~28–30°C • Humidity: ~57–60% • VPD: ~1.3–1.9 kPa • Light: Balanced spectrum & PPFD, designed for resin production & compact growth She has stayed stress-free despite the warm climate, showing her resilience. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect (and Not to Expect) Expect: • Buds bulking even further, stacking on that main cola and side branches. • Trichomes and frost building up week after week. • Aromas starting to get stronger as resin production increases. Not to Expect: • Major vertical stretch → she has chosen her form and will stay compact. • Quick finish → White Widow is a classic that takes her time to do things right. ⸻ 🗓️ Timeline Recap – From Seed to Week 5 Flower • Week 1: Germination → mistakes with the heat mat, but one strong survivor carried the torch. • Week 2: Settled into soil, fed gently while super soil activated. • Week 3: Compact growth, strong nodes, and healthy green structure. • Week 4: Transition into flower → bud sites forming, frost beginning. • Week 5 (Now): Full flower mode → trichomes sparkling, pistils shining, cola building beautifully. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude & Community • 🌱 Huge thanks to Zamnesia for these legendary genetics. • 💧 Appreciation to Aptus and Plagron for powering this run with balanced nutrition. • 💡 Shout-out to the gear teams supporting the light and control setup. • ❤️ And, as always, gratitude to you — the community.

How is it growing, my fun(k) loving friends? ***INFO*** For more on my setup, why it was monster cropped, and how I made the canopy, see Germination page and subsequent weeks. They had 48 hrs of darkness, and the time has come to say goodbye to my friends. I thanked them again, spend some time with them, and under the sound of Amazonian shaman's harvest and healing songs (will post link), asked for their gifts, and apologized for taking their lives. I do this while in contact with the plants, touching, smelling them, observing every detail, no thoughts, just in the present moment. I feel emotional as I do this and remember how they were a companion, a source of distraction in a time of worry, sadness, and loss. How they already comforted me and kept me company in a time of painful insights about honesty, commitment, and staying true to myself. I thank them again for their wisdom and gifts, viva Santa Maria, viva Planta Maestra, may the mother of all beings give us healing and protection. And I proceed with the harvest as I visualize my intentions with every cut. Branch by bud laden branch is tenderly untangled from the scrog net, taken with a clean-cut and immediately hung upside down in the grow tent, which will now double as a curing and drying room. A couple more weeks and we will have the final cured and dried weight. More photos and movies will follow, this is where we are so far!! Thank you for checking in on our journey, all the love, support, and compliments were a true motivation, a very needed distraction, and guidance for me and for Sunshine. Big hug, lots of love and take care! ***UPDATE*** The final weigh-in is ready. I hadn't seen them in a week, because of my vacation. The humidifier I set up, had failed. So the grow had dried in 7 days, what I wanted to be 14 at least. Thankfully, its Sativa ancestry shines through, the smoke isn't harsh, the buds a sticky and smelly, no hay smell at all. We ended up at 246 grams, excluding a shitload of larf and popcorn bud, totaling at 310 grams all in, a first at a gram per watt for me, but for the Zambeza seed competition, I stated we would only weigh the quality bud. Overall I'm very happy!! Guessed weights in the competition: - @hashy : 0 grams - @MrHyde : 198 grams - @JamMAKEcan : 224 grams - @TrickOrTrip : 260 grams - @Greeneysgrow: 312.5 grams - @Ohey_fu_kyu: 350 grams - @Puffs4Pipes: 385 grams - @Hempkid : 605 grams - @DoDrugs420 : 621 grams TrickorTrip was closest!! Congratulations!!! I will be contacting you to get the seeds with you!! Thanks for playing to all the others and better luck next time, I will give away some seeds again!! Summary: Cost of setup: 850 euro Cost of nutrients and soil: 125 euro Cost of seeds: None they were cloned Cost of power: 150 euros in the power bill Total cost: 1125,-- for setup and this run. I smoke for medical reasons and it's used for ritual and healing purposes, never to be sold, as it loses its magical properties. Should I have to buy Gelato of this quality at the dispensary that I frequent, it would cost me at least € 15,-- per gram. 246 x 15 = 3690 euros. also, 49 car rides of 25 miles there and back, 250 euros in gas saved. Overall conclusion: I think we can call this a succes. Made back my investment, my cost per grow and we saved the environment. Thanks for all the love, tips and support! Couldnt have done this on my first indoor LED grow, without you!! Wish you were here to smoke a fat one, some good conversation about our hobby and now... I'm hungry.... See you on the next one!!

I'll keep dreaming and light another one... Big hug BioBuds

Have really started too uptake feed now and she is taking the same as the plants that are 1 week older on nutrients but drinking twice as much needing too be watered more often , also she has started too droop her leaves towards the end of the light cycle , but I've read alot have been have this , so maybe the blackberry would benefit for a 20 hour light cycle , bit the others are loving the light , she has also already developed the lovely purple colours all over her , and it's a sight too see that's for sure well what can i say about this little lady but wow . her bud production is super fast and she certainly likes too stretch up , she is drinking the same feed as the ones that are a week older and drinking twice as much as the rest too , she loves her food thats for sure , her colour is stunning and i could sit there all day looking as her beautiful buds , this is the most stunning plant ive seen i can not wait too try this lady , so far apart from the yellowing during veg that ive thankfully got on top of using cal mag at full strength ive had absolutely no other issues at all and as you can see she is no a lush green and loving life , i have added a very low dose of top shooter today and will increase that slowly over the next two weeks too no more than half the recommended dose ,

08/25/2020 Did some defoiliating more pistils popping out all over.

It’s the first day of week 7. The nugs are swelling up nice considering what they have been through. They are starting to smell strong. Both plants smell completely different. Even tho they are the same strain and from the same pack of seeds. If you have an idea of what’s going on with my fan leaves let me know.

Blueberry Lime Kush AD

End of the week 5 of flowering I have little bit problems with humidity 60-70% and i found something that doesnt look like good thing in bud :( but only in one lady Overall ladies look good only one have something going, should i start flushing? week 6 of flowering starts today

26/10/20 - The mutated plant topped itself and then recovered. Shame to see this touch little girl go, but there's no room in the tent :'( Some slight pH issues, sorted with a new pH pen. 01/11/20 - Rearranged space to get better access to all plants.

🌱 Week 3 | Purple Haze Photo | Folder 7B | Growing at Her Own Pace Welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue, where every Purple Haze phenotype receives its own dedicated diary. Although every plant shares the same genetics, environment, nutrients, and lighting schedule, each one expresses its own unique growth pattern, making every folder a story of its own. This diary is part of my ongoing exploration of 12/12 From Seed, a cultivation technique that has become one of my favourites. From the day these seeds emerged from the soil, they have grown under a 12-hour light cycle, encouraging compact development, excellent internodal spacing, and allowing every phenotype to reveal its natural structure without excessive vegetative growth. Purple Haze 7B reminds us of one of the most important lessons in growing: Not every healthy plant develops at the same speed. She entered Week 3 slightly behind some of her sisters, but she never showed signs of stress or weakness. Instead, she quietly focused on building a strong foundation. Comparing the first photographs with those taken at the end of the week, the improvement is obvious. New nodes are stacking, the stem has thickened, and the canopy is beginning to take shape beautifully. Sometimes patience is the best nutrient we can provide. ⸻ 🌡️ Week 3 Growing Environment Every phenotype in Project Blue benefits from the same carefully controlled environment. During this week the room remained stable with the following conditions: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 27°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 55% • 🌱 Root Zone Temperature: 21°C • 🚰 Nutrient Solution Temperature: 20°C • ⚖️ pH: 6.0 • ⚡ EC: 1.3 • 🌬️ CO₂: approximately 666 ppm • 💡 Photoperiod: 12 Hours ON / 12 Hours OFF • ☀️ Average PPFD: 600–700 Providing identical environmental conditions across every plant allows each phenotype to express its own genetic potential, making differences in growth much easier to observe and document. ⸻ 🌿 Feeding Schedule Purple Haze 7B continues receiving the complete Plagron Terra vegetative feeding program: • Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L • Power Roots — 1 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L Rather than increasing nutrients simply because another plant grows faster, I prefer feeding according to overall health. She has shown excellent colour, healthy new growth, and no indication that she needs anything beyond a consistent and balanced feeding schedule. Healthy roots always come before explosive growth. ⸻ 🍃 Letting the Plant Set the Tempo One thing I enjoy about phenotype hunts is learning to respect each plant’s individual pace. It’s tempting to compare sisters growing side by side, but plants don’t read calendars. Purple Haze 7B may have started the week slightly behind, yet every day she added another piece to the puzzle. Her leaves gradually became larger, her stem gained strength, and fresh shoots began emerging confidently from each node. Rather than chasing rapid vertical growth, she invested her energy into creating a sturdy framework for the weeks ahead. That’s exactly the kind of patience I like to see. ⸻ 🌱 Preparing for Future Training With several healthy nodes now established, this phenotype is approaching the point where gentle canopy management will begin. For now, the focus remains simple. Allow every branch to develop naturally. Maintain strong root growth. Keep the environment stable. As the side branches continue to elongate over the coming days, they’ll become excellent candidates for gentle leaf tucking and Low Stress Training (LST), helping open the canopy without interrupting the plant’s natural momentum. There’s no need to rush the process. Every training technique works best when the plant tells you she’s ready. ⸻ 🌿 Quiet Progress Is Still Progress One of my favourite things about Purple Haze 7B is her balance. The leaves remain a beautiful healthy green. Internodal spacing is nice and compact. New growth appears vibrant and vigorous. The stem continues to strengthen with each passing day. Although she’s one of the smaller ladies in the room, she carries herself with confidence, and every new set of leaves suggests she’s finding her rhythm. She may not be leading the race today. But healthy, steady plants often become some of the biggest surprises later in flower. ⸻ 🔭 Looking Ahead Week 3 has given Purple Haze 7B exactly what she needed: time. Time to establish healthy roots. Time to strengthen her stem. Time to build the structural foundation that will support future flowering. As she enters the coming week, I expect her side branches to accelerate, her canopy to become fuller, and her compact frame to transform into a well-balanced flowering structure. With stable environmental conditions and consistent nutrition, she’s now perfectly positioned to continue catching up naturally. Some phenotypes sprint. Others build quietly before showing what they’re truly capable of. Growers Love and I have a feeling 7B belongs to the second group. A massive thank you to Plagron for providing the outstanding Terra nutrient line that keeps Project Blue thriving, to Zamnesia for making this incredible journey possible, and to everyone following these individual phenotype diaries. Every comment, question, and bit of encouragement makes this adventure even more rewarding.A massive thank you to Plagron for providing the outstanding Terra nutrient line that keeps Project Blue thriving, to Zamnesia for making this incredible journey possible, and to everyone following these individual phenotype diaries.

Esta semana apesar de tener temp Máxima de 28... se va recuperando bien de las podas, el led de TodoGrowled funciona perfectamente para sus 55w farmers!🍁

Stretching has officially stopped as I haven’t seen any vertical growth the past few days, so all growth must be going into buds therefore I did some super cropping to even out the canopy. I have some yellow marks on the leaves which I’m guessing it’s a nitrogen deficiency due to giving the girls only 700PPM throughout flower, I’m happy with the growth although I think the trichomes are less sticky compared to my last grow, I can only blame myself as I should have given her 1100PPM from Day 1 of flower. Overall though there are bud sites everywhere, so many that I decided to buy a new light as I don’t think these buds will fulfil their full potential with mars hydro, with this new light my tent light spread is completely even so I have high hopes for this grow. Some other phenos are purple at this stage so I will most definitely be buying more runtz muffin seeds until I find the purple pheno that I can clone. Still currently feeding the girls 2 litres in the morning and 2 litres before the lights turn off. Considering adding molasses as a third feeding depending on how the growth goes.

Primera semana de las nenas, van cada día mejor. Los riegos han sido poco pero frecuentes (Dia x medio) con bacterias (colectivo cientifico) más otros tipo de microorganismos, a dEmas de enraizante y base.

All is going well. No issues with this cultivar at all.

Why uploading videos error?? Up 100 error 100!!!😭😭😭😭

Extrêmement satisfait de cette variété. Un vrai cauchemar pour les ciseaux tellement elle colle!! Comme pour la critical, j’aurais aimé récolter plus, mais je vais essayer d’améliorer mes compétences, et puis peu être par la suite augmenter la puissances de la lampes. Elle est vraiment riche en cristaux. Je reviendrais faire un update après le smoke test.
