Week 5 : Six Shooter in Biotabs An eventful week, growing daily, destroying its training daily, pulled out it's metal hook and most of its ties , but overall doing well, getting bushy and pushing it's secondaries above the canopy reaching for the light. Turned up the light to 600W, it's making the room a bit warmer but i'm able to control it pretty well. This 6 shooter is basically in the first week of flowering, but will need an extra week or even two of bloom i think before it comes to maturity, i'm guessing week 12. watered with my micro and beneficials solutions, frothy and brownish but i mean clean water is overrated lol gave them some watering with co2 too, but when i sprayed I think i was spraying too close and using tap water in which i had not measured the micro i was adding so the spray left residue everywhere on the leaves, not really sure how to fix it actually, it's not biggie i know but still. I got these bakery trays used for cooking cakes and cookies and i'm using them to lift the pots slightly getting better airflow. I dont know if it's the airflow under the pots or simply that these are just drinking more for the stage of growth they're at but they're getting three waterings this week which means they are drinking fully 50% more on last week ! 9 pints instead of 6 ! special shout out to my new friend @greencropPT for teaching me some new tricks and showing me some cool stuff ! Week 5 : Six Shooter in Vertafort decent week for the vertafort six shooter, used to be the runt, has basically caught up by now. Glad i did some LST the canopy is even which is great to gage how high the light goes - i'm adjusting the HID every couple of days basically following the growth of the plants. This one has bushed out nicely, i removed a fan leaf that was shading the main cola. It's just now pushing out mini pistils , looking forward to seeing how these do during the main flower stretch. Watered her with my micro and beneficials once, co2 enriched water once, and will likely get a third watering this week. Just going in the tent every so often trying to train the side colas and keep the canopy even. Looking forward to seeing some amazing buds come out of this one ! Week 5 : Mr.B's Six Shooter First week of flowering for the tent and everything is going really well actually, Mr.B's not really showing any signs of excess or deficiencies, but i got nervous going into flower so i added some beneficials. The six shooter is bushing out really nice, pushing it's secondary colas above the cannopy. i took two leaves off this one, they were healthy leaves , but thick, dark brown and causing all sorts of shadow... It was a really interesting experience doing the beneficials for the first time, it got clumpy, brownish, frothy ... gross ! and it was "so ghetto" getting spores and such straight out of a zip lock, check my other diaries i'll put some pics up of that just for laughs. I decided to eyeball my micro and kelp spray which means that there is residu all over lol, trying to get rid of it without rubbing it off, but i might just have to do that. lol that was an experience too, i mix it in for the spray and the solution turns red ! never seen that before even on this site ! check out the vid too, you can see me spraying the plants lol... no biggy but it was an eventful week for bulbi and I learned loads and loads ! not sure if I'm doing the beneficials correctly : does anyone know if those bacteria and fungi play well together? anyway VPD is really on point doing very well on that front, and you can tell from the explossive growth : these six shooters completely pulled out their metal hooks ! drop me a line , i'd love to hear from you ! 🚀🚀

So far the dosi seems to be further into flowering than the bride cake. I’m noticing a potential cal/mag lock out with the dosi but I’ll continue to monitor over the course of these next few days. If signs worsen I’ll attempt to flush with lighter EC until run off readings of PH & EC are stable and will tone down the feed. 11/5/21 seems that my “mag & calcium deficiency” seems to really be nutrient burn. I am pushing these plants on their bloom diet (2.8-3.0EC) so it is to be expected however I shall continue to keep them at the same EC unless things begin to worsen 🤷‍♂️🏽 I like to limit test 😅

Llama al Doctror! Me estoy creciendo de maravilla. Buenos noches para GG4 Empesamos bien otra semana con co2 elevado hasta 1200 i ppfd hasta 1500

Excelente genética excelentes olores y aromas un terreno delicioso, productora al 100% tiene una muy buena capacidad de producir cogollos robustos y compactos 26/10/2024 fecha de la cosecha.

2 more weeks of feeding then flush. Stacking well and could finish faster then I'm anticipating.

day 14 added 1/2tbsp magnesium sulfate in 5gal water along with regular flower water amendments. 1gal of water per day average, bridal and thunder can take more water. Ph 6.8 today day 15 I will defoliate in a few days :) day 15 video, you see some stem action day 16 video day 17 I added (4x20w daisy-chained)80w of poop purple ancient leds Keep adding soluble PK, organic booster etc. I see the stacks relax on defoliation for a few days, maybe tomorrow morning (skip day21) I feel like I will be able to chop week 6-7 as my last grow, push hard fast-continue everything is great, soon bridal and thunder will require 1gal water per day. I would like to see even more mass. I'm extremely happy, starting to see frost day18. BIG UPDATE many short vids of final defoliation(ahead of "day 21"). Wild amendments appeared! Any recommendations for a lawnmower? Bridalparty stretched over an inch overnight, led touch diode burn on 1 spot. Raised lights slightly, Added new amendments into water. Bridal wants to drink more than 1gal per day, So I will be using almost 5gal-ish water per day not denying the plant needs-watering. I am very happy! defoliation took about 4h today.

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno A Week 5 | Full Steam Ahead One of the most rewarding parts of documenting an entire phenotype hunt is watching every individual plant write its own story. Even though this lady shares the same room as several of her sisters, she’s following her own timeline with complete confidence. Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, this project follows multiple phenotypes under identical environmental conditions using the 12/12 From Seed method. Instead of forcing flowering by changing the light schedule, every plant receives 12 hours of light from the day she germinates, allowing each phenotype to decide for itself when it’s ready to reproduce. Cash Express Pheno A has made her decision. There are no doubts anymore… Flowering has officially begun. ⸻ 🌼 The First Flowers This week the plant truly announced the beginning of her reproductive stage. Fresh white pistils are now appearing across every growing tip, marking the first real flower sites. Those tiny white hairs are far more than just pretty decorations. Each pistil is part of the female flower and serves as the structure that would naturally receive pollen in nature. In an indoor sinsemilla grow, however, they become the foundation for the beautiful resin-covered buds we’re all hoping to harvest later. It’s always one of my favourite moments in a grow. The transition from “plant” to “flowering plant” has officially started. Although she’s still compact, every day now brings noticeable changes as the flowering sites become more defined. ⸻ 💧 AutoPot Life Like her Blueberry Muffin sister growing beside her, this phenotype has now fully transitioned onto the AutoPot irrigation system. Instead of watering from the top every day, the plants now feed themselves whenever they need moisture. At the heart of the system is the AquaValve. This clever little mechanical valve keeps a shallow reservoir inside each tray, automatically opening and closing as the plant drinks. Once the tray is empty, fresh nutrient solution flows in again, creating a continuous wet-and-dry cycle without electricity or timers at each pot. It allows the roots to decide when to feed rather than relying on my watering schedule. So far… She’s absolutely loving it. ⸻ 🍽️ Feeding & A Small Observation This week’s reservoir was prepared using: • Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L The reservoir remains intentionally simple for AutoPot use, allowing the solution to stay stable while circulating continuously. During this week’s inspections I also noticed something worth documenting. Several older fan leaves are beginning to show a gentle loss of colour. Nothing dramatic. No burnt tips. No rapid deterioration. Just a subtle lightening that suggests she’s beginning to ask for slightly more nutrition as flowering accelerates. Rather than immediately assuming a deficiency, I prefer making small adjustments and watching how the plant responds. For that reason I increased the EC slightly this week. Now the plant gets the opportunity to tell me whether that adjustment is enough. Growing is often less about reacting quickly… …and more about listening carefully. ⸻ 🌿 Environment The flowering room continues operating under stable conditions. • Day temperature averaged 31.1°C • Night temperature remained around 25°C • Solution temperature stayed near 21.6°C • Root zone remained approximately 21°C • Relative humidity averaged 72% • Atmospheric CO₂ measured roughly 639 ppm The humidity may appear a little high, but at this early flowering stage I’m still comfortable maintaining these levels while the plants continue stretching and building new flower sites. As flowering progresses and the buds begin gaining density, humidity will gradually come down to create an even safer environment for resin production and flower development. Everything follows the plan. ⸻ 📸 Behind This Week’s Photos This week’s gallery tells a very exciting story. The close-up photographs capture the explosion of fresh white pistils appearing from nearly every node, confirming that flowering is now fully underway. The side profiles show a compact but extremely healthy structure, while the overhead shots reveal an even canopy that should make excellent use of the flowering light over the coming weeks. Some of the photographs also document the slight paling of a few fan leaves. Rather than hiding these moments, I like including them because they remind us that plants constantly communicate. Sometimes they’re simply asking for a little more. Learning to recognise those conversations is part of becoming a better grower. (And yes… eagle-eyed viewers may notice the photo label accidentally says crash instead of cash. That’s entirely my mistake and will be corrected in the next update. Even diaries have typos sometimes! 😄) ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should be one of the most exciting stages yet. I expect the flowering sites to begin stacking more aggressively as the stretch continues. We’ll also be watching closely to see how the increased EC influences the slight leaf discoloration. If the colour stabilises, we’ll know the adjustment was enough. If not, the plant will simply tell us she needs a little more. Either way… She’ll write the next chapter, and I’ll keep listening. ⸻ 💚 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this journey.

And finally… Thank you to every grower, follower, supporter, critic, and curious visitor who stops by these diaries. Every interaction makes this journey richer, and I’m grateful to share it with all of you. Growers Love and see you next week, where we’ll find out if the extra nutrition satisfies her growing appetite—and watch those first flowers begin transforming into what we all know is coming. 🌱🚂💚

It was relatively easy. Thanks to all growmies that helped me along the way!!

Buding in progress ✌️

Girls feed has been increased to max for outdoor in the ground grows. 1500 ppm 3.0 ec and their all doing fine. The Gelato K is getting huge. Going to tie string to every big branch to keep them from breaking. Very long branches and very heavy just with the leaves. No branches have snapped yet, just waiting on string coming today. Bring the branches back up frrom their bent down positions. Crowding out the branches underneath. Thanks to all the looks and likes. Thanks to Kannabia for some fine seeds.

SUMMARY: Still on Mid Bloom strength nutes this week (+ 1 tablespoon of molasses per 5L). Irrigating once every 24hrs as always with her taking in about 2.2L average per day and always aiming for 20-30% runoff. Whilst she has many tops, they're very skinny and I'm not sure they are going to fill out to be honest. DAY 58 ------ Friday 19th February 18:30 I found the tent at 28% RH. No idea how that's occurred but I did notice it was hotter then usual this morning. I turned the dehumidifier of for a couple of hours and it jumped back up to 61% and so I will just set it to 55% RH. I fed Jesus 2.2L of early bloom nutes which produced 195ml runoff (9%). Will up this back to 3L tomorrow. I adjusted a couple of ties to expose more bud sites. [24°C/52%] DAY 59 ------ Saturday 20th February 11:30 The tent temp has been sat at around 23°C overnight somehow. The dehumidifier keeping the humidity around 45-50% seems to also keep the temps between 23-27°C. Saturday 20th February 18:30 I fed Jesus 3L of mid bloom nutes which produced 1050ml runoff (34%). Looks like i have a humidity problem and so ive reluctantly removed some more leaves from Jesus as she is bushy again after a week or perhaps I didnt defol enough. If I have the dehumidifier off the humidity is in the low 60s but if I lower it to like 45-50% then the temps stays too high between 24°C-33°C. [22°C/64%] DAY 60 ------ Sunday 21st February 11:30 I made 5L of early bloom nutes at a pH of 5.8 and 5L of mid bloom nutes at a pH of 5.6, both made with tap water. Sunday 21st February 18:30 I fed Jesus 2.5L of mid bloom nutes which produced 825ml runoff (33%). [22°C/49%] DAY 61 ------ Monday 22nd February 11:45 I made 5L of mid bloom nutes with rain water at a pH of 5.9. I am adding half a tablespoon of molasses to every 5L now by adding just enough boiling water to liquify the molasses and then pour it into the feed. Monday 22nd February 18:30 I fed Jesus 2.5L of mid bloom nutes with molasses which produced 710ml runoff (28%). [22°C/55%] DAY 62 ------ Tuesday 23rd February 18:30 I fed Jesus 2.3L of mid bloom nutes which produced 640ml runoff (28%). With the dehumidifier set to 50% RH it seems to keep it at around 50% RH though the temps between 25-30°C. If I turn the dehumidifier off the RH climbs to 60-64%. Removing more leaves will lower the humidity and I do pluck the odd one every day that is blocking light (I rotate the plants daily 25° per day to ensure all sides get a fair share of light). [25°C/50%] DAY 63 ------ Wednesday 24th February 18:30 I fed Jesus 2120ml of mid bloom nutes with molasses which produced 200ml runoff (10%). The temps have risen to 30°C due to the dehumidifier. It is currently set to 50% RH which keeps the temps around 28-30°C and the RH at around 38-40%. I have increased the setting to 65% to see if that helps lower the temp and increase the RH up to 45-50%. [30°C/40%] DAY 64 -------- Thursday 25th February 11:30 I made 10L of mid bloom nutes with rainwater and molasses (level tablespoon per 5L). 5L at a pH of 5.9 and 5L at a pH of 5.8 Thursday 25th February 18:30 I fed Jesus 2.4L of mid bloom nutes which produced 700ml runoff (29%). [22°C/55%]

mega girl, she has already left with her friends to her permanent home:) I will visit them once a week:)

These ladies are really starting to stretch. Especially the Red Hot Cookies, holy cow they are getting big quick. Starting to see preflowers on all of the ladies. I will update throughout the week. 😀

.

Everything is still going good for this week just giving 6.2 PH Tap water with a bubbler for 24 hours before I fill my Reservoir. July 2 when my lights came back on at 5pm I decided to Defoliate these two girls and add a ScrOG net for some extra support and some tucking for the leaves. July 6th last day of week 8 I took the other two plants in the back out of the tent today so I can flip these to 12 on 12 off.

Ehi ragazzi finalmente è arrivato l atteso momento di raccogliere! Ancora una settimana secondo me gliela devo concedere! Ogni giorno che passa le cime si rigonfiano sempre di più e stanno cambiando colore verso un bel violaceo! L odore intenso di ciliegia e davvero particolare e vi posso assicurare che ricorda quella caratteristica acidità della "cola"appunto! Mi aspetto una grande fumata stonante intensa che mi faccia vibrare tutto il corpo ed espandere la mia mente ai confini della umana comprensione! Ringrazio come al solito Mars hydro e FastBuds che hanno reso possibile l evolvere di questa bellissima creatura ! Buon 420 a tutti!!

Após trocar a pilha melhorou a fixação do PH, e após deixar por algumas horas o eletrodo sob agua oxigenada V10, o calibrador voltar a ler PHs mais altos, antes ao colocar na água aparecia 5,5. Agora retornou a 7,5 a 8 que é o correto do PH da minha cidade. Eu estava colocando PH UP então acredito que o PH da terra deve estar nas alturas, vou medir o run off nos proximos dias e realizar um flush para neutralizar o PH da terra em 6,2 Equipamentos/Acessórios: Quantum Board Quattro https://www.armariogrow.com.br/quantum-board-quattro Grow: Flora: Estufa Probox Basic 60 60x60x160 Vaso: Air Pot 10 L Termo Higrômetro: AcuRite Umidificador: Difusor De Ar Elétrico Umidificador 👻👻
