With the last heat wave, I had an answer to one of my questions, clearly my chiller is not doing the trick. I have water temperatures that went up to 27°, which is way too much, the plants deprived of oxygen, started to declare several deficiencies due to an assimilation slowed by the lack of oxygen. It is then that a nasty fungus came to say bijour, it is me MR pythium! It was necessary to act, at the risk of having to restart the culture. So I applied hydrogen peroxide and ROOT ROT X, and both products are doing harm to this nasty pythium, things are now back to normal. On the other hand, the plants had a decreased growth for 10 to 15 days, so I'm going to extend my growth for 10 to 20 days, that is to say 1 or 2 soups, I'll choose according to the root development of the plants. Before going to flowering, I have to catch up this delay in order to make a nice crop.

A straight forward week as the autopots are doing the watering and the plants are growing fast and strong. I have given them a KNF foliar feed today , see video for content. Two of the Radio Z ate looking quite similar. Radio z 2 is a beats real thick stems. Looks male . @lumatekeu attis 300w is set at 80% , have added a Inkbird hygrometer. Which I love .

🍮 Chem Brûlée – Pheno A Week 10 | Her Own Kind of Shine ❄️🌸✨ Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And this girl... She's still shining. Not because she's trying to be like anybody else. Not because she's following some predetermined script. But because Chem Brûlée Pheno A has developed a personality all of her own. She's unique. She's distinctive. And the further we move into flower, the more that individuality becomes obvious. Every week, I look at her and think: "Okay... let's see where you're going next." And honestly? I have no idea exactly where she's going. But I'm really enjoying the journey. So this week, we're keeping things simple. We're watching. We're supporting. We're keeping the environment as stable as possible. We're letting the LEDs keep throwing photons into the jungle. And most importantly... We're giving this beautiful girl the spotlight. 🍮❄️🌸 🌱 Week 10 – Still Writing Her Own Story Chem Brûlée Pheno A is sitting at approximately 126 cm, and by now her overall character is pretty unmistakable. She's not the plant that makes you stop because she's enormous. She's not trying to win some imaginary height competition. She's simply developed into her own version of Chem Brûlée. And that's exactly what makes phenotype hunting so interesting. You start with a genetic name. Then you grow the plant. And eventually, the plant starts telling you what that name means in her particular case. This girl has definitely introduced herself. She's got her own structure. Her own flower formation. Her own expression. Her own rhythm. And I like it. Very much. 🌸 The Flowers Keep Getting More Beautiful The biggest change this week is, once again, happening where it matters most: the flowers. They're becoming more established. More defined. More substantial. And those beautiful white hairs continue standing proudly out from the developing buds. The photographs really capture that progression. We're no longer looking at tiny early flowering sites. We're watching proper flower structures develop throughout the plant. And there's something really satisfying about seeing those individual flowers slowly becoming more recognizable week after week. They're still developing. There's still plenty of time for them to change. But the direction is beautiful. And I genuinely want to see where she takes them. 🌸?❄️ ❄️ And Yes... She's Still Bringing the Frost The frost is also becoming increasingly noticeable. That developing resin coverage gives the flowers another layer of character, especially when you get the camera close. This is where photography becomes such a fantastic part of the grow. From across the room, you see: Chem Brûlée. Through the macro lens, you see: Chem Brûlée Pheno A. The little details start appearing. The trichome-covered surfaces. The pistils. The sugar leaves. The developing flower structure. Suddenly, the phenotype becomes much more than a plant in a pot. She becomes a collection of tiny details that you can follow from week to week. And that's exactly what I love about this diary. 📸❄️ 💡 Let's Talk About Photons Again Because this week, just like throughout the other individual diaries, I want to give some attention to something that we can't actually see... the photons. We see the LEDs. We see the flowers. We see the leaves. But we don't see the photons travelling between them. And yet those photons are one of the fundamental pieces of this entire story. The Future of Grow Black Series LEDs are essentially creating our artificial sun. Photons are being emitted from the fixtures and travelling into the canopy. The leaves intercept that light. Photosynthesis turns captured light energy into chemical energy. And that energy supports the plant's ongoing growth and development. So when I look at Chem Brûlée's beautiful green foliage and developing flowers, I'm also looking at the visible result of an enormous amount of invisible work happening every day. That's pretty damn cool. 💡🌿 ☀️ The Artificial Sun Above Her The Future of Grow lighting is doing something particularly interesting in this room because we're not growing just one plant. We're growing twelve different genetic expressions under the same general artificial sun. The photons don't care which cultivar they're reaching. They simply arrive. Then the genetics respond. And that's where the experiment becomes fascinating. One plant becomes compact. Another stretches. One develops a particular flower structure. Another produces something completely different. One phenotype takes her time. Another seems to have somewhere very important to be. 😂 Same room. Same general lighting philosophy. Different genetic responses. And Chem Brûlée Pheno A? She's giving us her answer. And I really like what I'm seeing. 💡 Photons Are Part of the Whole Environment And I don't look at light as something that exists separately from the rest of the room. The photons interact with everything. More available light influences plant demand. Plant demand influences water use and nutrient uptake. Light contributes to the energy balance of the canopy. The canopy influences temperature and humidity around the foliage. And the structure of the plant determines how efficiently that light can move through it. It's all connected. That's why I love the idea of thinking about the grow as a complete system rather than a collection of individual numbers. Light. Temperature. Humidity. CO₂. Water. Nutrition. Root-zone conditions. Plant structure. Everything talks to everything else. And the photons are right in the middle of that conversation. 💡🌿🌸 🌿 She's Becoming More Herself Every Week This is probably my favourite thing about this phenotype right now. She's becoming more recognizable. Not necessarily because she's changing dramatically from one week to the next. But because the small characteristics are becoming stronger. Her flower structure. Her pistils. Her resin. Her architecture. Her overall expression. It's like watching a photograph slowly come into focus. At the beginning of the grow, there were possibilities. Now? We're getting an increasingly clear picture of who she is. And she's definitely unique. That's what I wanted from this project. Not twelve identical plants. I wanted to see what happens when different genetics and phenotypes are given the same opportunity. And Chem Brûlée Pheno A is giving us a very interesting answer. 🌡️ Keeping the Room Steady The room remains broadly consistent this week. Current conditions are approximately: 🌡️ Day temperature: 29.9°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 RH: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: ~639 ppm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🥥 Substrate temperature: 26°C 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 💦 Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h ? Pot size: 15 L 📏 Height: ~126 cm Summer is still summer, of course. 😂☀️ Keeping temperatures perfectly locked isn't always realistic when the outside world is doing its own thing. So the goal isn't obsessing over every tiny movement. It's maintaining a stable enough environment that the plants can continue doing their work without unnecessary stress. And right now? Chem Brûlée appears perfectly happy to keep working. ⚗️ Nutrition – Consistency Wins Again We're also keeping the feeding strategy consistent. Current nutrition remains: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L With pH adjustment as required. Current solution is approximately: pH 6.0 EC ~2.0 mS/cm And again... there's no reason to change something simply because another week has passed. She's growing. She's flowering. She's developing resin. She's maintaining that beautiful foliage. So we'll continue observing rather than constantly intervening. Sometimes consistency is the most useful thing a grower can provide. 💨 Let the Canopy Breathe As flowering continues, we're naturally paying attention to canopy density and airflow. The plant has plenty of foliage, but we're not interested in removing leaves simply because they're there. Healthy leaves are working. They're capturing photons. They're contributing to photosynthesis. They're part of the plant's engine. So any canopy management is about purpose. If something becomes unnecessarily crowded, we'll look at it. If something is blocking an important area, we'll consider it. But otherwise? Let her work. The objective isn't to create the emptiest plant possible. It's to create a healthy, functional canopy where light, air and plant structure can work together. 📸 Behind the Lens And once again... Chem Brûlée Pheno A is making the camera very happy. 😂📸 The close-ups are becoming increasingly rewarding. Those white hairs are beautiful. The flower formation is becoming more obvious. The resin coverage is developing. And the structure of the plant is becoming easier to appreciate. Then you step back... and you see the whole girl. That's the magic of documenting a plant over time. One photograph shows a moment. Ten weeks of photographs show a story. And hers is becoming a very interesting one. 🍮 Unique Is the Word If I had to choose one word for Chem Brûlée Pheno A this week? Unique. She's not trying to fit a template. She's not trying to look like another phenotype. She's not trying to follow somebody else's timeline. She's simply expressing herself. And I really like that. Because when you have twelve plants in the same room, you quickly learn that there isn't one single definition of "beautiful." There's tall. There's short. There's compact. There's stretched. There's dense. There's open. There's fast. There's slow. And then there are plants like this one... where you stop comparing entirely. You simply look at her and say: "That's you." And I think that's where Chem Brûlée Pheno A is now. 🔮 Looking Ahead – Where Are You Going, Girl? And now I'm genuinely curious. Where does she go from here? How much more will those flowers develop? How much more will the resin build? How will the structure change as the flowers continue to mature? How will her final expression compare with what we imagined back when she was just a small plant? I don't know yet. And that's the fun part. We're not at the end of the story. We're somewhere in the middle... watching the next chapter unfold. So for now, I'm looking for: 🌸 Continued flower development ? Further pistil development ❄️ Increasing resin coverage 🌿 Healthy foliage 💡 Efficient use of the available photons 💨 Good airflow through the canopy 📈 Increasing flower definition and density And then? We'll see. 💭 Final Thoughts – Let Her Shine Chem Brûlée Pheno A is becoming one of those plants where I don't really want to predict too much. I want to watch. Because she's already shown us that she's different. She's unique. She's developing beautifully. Her flowers are taking shape. Those white hairs are becoming one of her most recognizable features. The frost is building. The canopy is working. And above everything... she's becoming herself. That's what I love about this project. We provide the environment. We provide the water. We provide the nutrition. We provide the artificial sun. We fill the room with photons. And then the plant takes all of that... and writes her own story. Chem Brûlée Pheno A is writing hers in a language I really like. 🍮🌸❄️ So let's not rush her. Let's not force her. Let's not try to make her something else. Let's simply give her the conditions she needs... and let her shine. The Future of Grow LEDs keep sending those photons. The Lumiflora lighting keeps helping illuminate the deeper parts of the garden. The environment keeps doing its job. And Chem Brûlée? She's doing hers. Beautifully. Uniquely. And completely her own way. Let's see where she goes. 🍮❄️🔥 🙏 Thank You As always, a huge thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚 Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the place to document this journey and share the details of these twelve very different stories. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Chem Brûlée genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore just how much personality can exist within individual phenotypes. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden with the growing media and nutrition throughout the adventure. Thank you to Future of Grow for providing the Black Series LEDs that keep our artificial sun shining and those photons flying through the jungle. 💡☀️🌿 And a special thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the inner and lower areas of the canopy and making our relationship with photons a little more three-dimensional. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us keep track of the environment behind the scenes. And of course... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person who stops by simply to see how the girls are doing. This adventure wouldn't be the same without you. Twelve plants. One room. One environment. Millions upon millions of photons. And twelve completely different stories. This one belongs to Chem Brûlée Pheno A. She's unique. She's beautiful. She's developing. And she's showing us more of herself every week. So let's keep watching. Let's keep learning. Let's keep those photons flying. And most importantly... let's make this beautiful girl shine. 🍮🌸❄️💡🔥 Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿📸🍮❄️

Всем привет. Я назвал этот дневник "Old tree" и это не просто так, этому кусту 13 месяцев! Также интересный факт это растение уже дало урожай после чего я решил оставить 30% от растения, обрезать ему корни и пересадить в горшок поменьше после чего отправил его на вегетацию 18/6 и оно начало вегетировать. Также с этого растения мне получилось взять много хороших клонов, но теперь старушке пора на пенсию ее работа выполнена! Надеюсь это будет интересно.

Las plantas ya tienen el tamaño final, las cheese se han quedado en 90 cm, que no esta mal... La Titan se a quedado de unos 25 o 30 cm bastante mas pequeña, va mas adelantada que las cheese y ya empieza a oler un poco y ya se le ve resina por los cogollos. Esta semana el riego a sido en 4 l de agua, Microvita, Top Candy y Top Auto. La foto y video son del, Dia 35 desde que empezaron a asomar

Update week 15: I have been flushing them for a week now. I will let them go an additional week and then I will probably harvest depending on the trichomes. They smell lovely, the DGx3BOG smells like gummy bears and the Tangie smells indeed very citrusy.

huge heads on all plants I’m going to say 100 colas in this tent. Yes 100. Not one nook or cranny isn’t filled with a big ole branch. Proud of my scrog. About to get a mountain of hash of these babies. Stinky fruit peel/ straight gas/ lil gmo not really to spicy. More funk and gas than anything else. Long trichromes indicated a good washing strains! I can’t wait to process! Update: pulled trigger and chopped front left pheno. Ez 600 wet grams cut within 30 minutes. Super sticky I went through 3 pairs of gloves was very very gentle ripping and cutting calyx to dime to quarter size nugs. Disposed of fans only sugar left. Process tmrw morning!!!!! Very exciting! Update: washed single font plant trichs all cloudy basically lil early but washing for rosin I’m trying to experiment with each plant and trichrome maturity. Yield on point for 500-600 wet grams. I’m predicting 50 grams bubble hash. We will see. Stay tuned Update: I’m crying tears of joy. No caption needed.

LAST WATER 6/4 6/5 The sun has been relentless and has caused some bleaching and burns on some older leaves. It seems that the gmos ate having the hardest time (except one). It's been extremely hot though. It's overcast and we are supposed to have thunderstorms and a few more mild days. Plants loved tje water yesterday. I hope it does rain. Plants are growing and seem to be surviving. Burns are on old growth. If I notice more I'll put my back tarp up which will block the sun in the afternoon and put them in shade. I wish I had done that earlier. Oh well. With what these girls have encountered and overcome I think I'll be OK. EDIT: IT WAS IN THE 80'S TODAY. PROBABLY HIT 90. I HAD TO GET MY CAR INSPECTED AND WAS GONE EXPECTING IN THE MORNING THAT THE THUNDERSTORMS WOUKD START. INSTEAD WE HAD A VICIOUSLY SUNNY HOT DAY UNTIL 4PM. AT 4PM SHIT HIT THE FAN AND IT RAINED SO HARD I WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE. I LIVE IN MAINE SO I KNOW HOW TO DRIVE IN INCLIMENT WEATHER. THIS WAS ANSOLUTE ZERO VISABILITY. I WANTED TO PUT A TARP UP TO SHIELD THE GIRLS FROM THE SUN BUT I WASNT ABLE TOO. WHEN I GOT TO THE GROW RIGHT BEFORE THE STORM IT HAD RAINED A LITTLE AND IT SMELLED SO GOOD. LIKE SOIL. I THINK THIS DOWNPOUR WILL REALLY HELP THE GIRLS. ONLY TIME WILL TELL. 6/6 Plants faired ok through the storm. The 3 earliest transplants and what WERE the nicest looking gmos are getting some burns and bleaching. It's all on old leaves though. I think they're pulling out of it and will grow through it. Some plants seem to not be stressed at all. With tje elements being the way they have I'm suprised they aren't far worse. I was going to put up my back tarp to block sunlight later in the day but I didn't. The burns are on the other sides of the plants and it's supposed to be overcast with showers for a full day. It's clear right now but the new growth and tops of the plants seem fine now. When I got there a few were limp. As soon as the sun came up though they all perked back up. Only time will tell. 6/7 Showers today. It's good to have a break from that horrific 80-90 degree weather with 90% rh isn't run for me or the plants. Plants are recovering from the burns quite nicely. Obviously the burnt leaves won't repair but they did a good job of shielding some of the others. Things are going. 6/8 Still overcast with showers. I removedc a couple burnt fan leavesxand accidently ripped off a bud site. 6/9 Another overcast day. Rained last night. Soil is saturated from all the rain we've gotten. Plants seem to be settling in nicely. The 3 GMOs that WERE the best looking plants are the ones in the worst shape. The got transplanted a day earlier in a lot of sun and wind. They're coming back though. I've noticed that after it rains and they get even a little sun they grow significantly. Those event horizons are tough. The toasted toffy is a reveg but it looks like its going to be a huge plant. I have the 3 seedlings still in small pots. I'll transplant them soon. 6/10 Overcast and a chance of showers. I removed a few bleached fan leaves on a few of my GMO'S that strain took the most damage. They are bouncing back though. We've had a few dayscof rain and milder weather. Few more days with a chance of showers then back to the sunny days. Plants seem to have come out of shock and out grown the light burn. After the rain, when the sun comes out they grow a noticeable amount. Things are still going fairly well. 6/11 Rained and I didn't do
