smell on the sativa-doms is strong and unusual. moved 3 to back patio for a bit more light. trichome development on sativas is fantastic, less so on indicas. planned this to be last feeding, but maybe not.

Final week. Power buds from Plagron helps accelerate the flowering period for sure. I am harvesting tomorrow.😎 This week no fertilizers just water only. Overall happy with the way they shaped up, compared to other strains from other breeders. Need to see after harvest but as a first impression this strain is amazing. The smell now is out of this world. Zesty!!!Lots of citrus scent.Loving it. As for the LST only vs topped. I like the LST only. It matured faster. It is bigger. It has more bud sites . Had an overall better structure. Refer to videos for comparison. But need to see the harvest, weight, smoke report for full comparison Till harvest 👏🎉

What an explosion in growth for week 5. Every day this plant is growing like crazy. Had to trim up some lower foliage to allow better airflow. Tied down some more branches to even the canopy especially the main stem. Rubbing the stem gives an amazing smell and can’t wait till it matures fully. Looking like this plant will be a great yield of everything keeps rocking like it has. I’m feeding a worm castings compost tea spiked with Cultured Biologix EZ Tea Bloom to feed the microbes in the soil that are essential for trichome production. Also started feeding silicon to strengthen the stems and Trichomes. Week 6 is going to be nuts with growth I can already tell.

🛸🍜 Week 1 — Cosmic Noodles | Dual Timeline Report | 12/12 Experiment Welcome to Folder 2 — Cosmic Noodles, a unique space in the 8×8 project, because this is the first strain where we are officially documenting two plants evolving under two different timelines, converging now into the same photoperiod and environment. Before anything else: Thank you to the genetics providers @ Zamnesia Seeds, Plagron, Future of Grow, Cannakan, and the entire GrowDiaries community for following this multi-layered grow. Your support makes these experiments possible, and Cosmic Noodles is the perfect strain to explore something new. ⸻ 🌱 Two Plants, Two Origins — One Timeline From Now On Cosmic Noodles here has two versions of herself growing side by side: ⸻ 1️⃣ Plant A — Week 1 Seedling (12/12 From Seed) This is the one officially being logged for this Week 1 report. • Germinated fresh • Started directly under 12/12 from day one • Growing in Pro-Mix mycorrhizal bag • Responding beautifully to early light and nutrition • Leaves are vibrant, symmetrical, and compact • Classic early autoflower posture, but more energized due to the Pro-Mix biology ⸻ 2️⃣ Plant B — The “15-Day Veg Experiment” Plant This one is fascinating: • Germinated earlier (around 2.5 weeks old now) • Grew the first 15 days under normal veg lighting • Reached 5 nodes before switching to 12/12 • Currently in Plagron LightMix Bio • Now entering the same 12/12 conditions as Plant A • Will receive the same PPFD, nutrition, feeding schedule, and environment as the rest of the tent This plant is our autoflower test subject for: “What happens when you veg an auto for 15 days and THEN drop to 12/12?” No one talks about this. No one measures it. Lets pioneering it. ⸻ Medium Differences — Pro-Mix vs LightMix Bio Plant A: Pro-Mix Mycorrhizal Bag (14.5 L) Benefits: • Fast root colonization • Mycorrhizae bond early and extend nutrient access • Perfect for compact 12/12 growth • Excellent for autos that benefit from minimal transplant stress • Air pruning along the bag walls encourages a dense fibrous root system Plant B: Plagron LightMix Bio (Plastic Pot) Benefits: • Light, buffered nutrient profile • Excellent aeration and seedling support • More neutral starter base • Ideal for early veg expansion (which is exactly what she did before the light switch) Now both plants will follow the same regimen, allowing a clean comparison between: • Two mediums • Two ages • Two development speeds • One identical environment This data is going to be priceless. ⸻ 💧 Feeding — Plagron Nutrient Line (Shared Across the Tent) In water: • Terra Grow: 25 ml / 10 L • Power Roots: 1 ml / L • Pure Zym: 1 ml / L • Sugar Royal: 1 ml / L Foliar: • Vita Race: 2.5 ml / L Why it works for this dual experiment: • Power Roots + mycorrhizae = Plant A gains explosive root start • LightMix + Pure Zym = Plant B keeps metabolic stability while adapting to 12/12 • Sugar Royal = improved stress resistance for both plants during transition • Terra Grow = supports nitrogen demands during early growth and adaptation • Vita Race = enhances structure and leaf strength Both plants will now move through the same nutrition rhythm, making differences purely genetic + developmental. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Stats (Week 1) • EC: ~1.0 • pH: ~6.0 • Water Temperature: 21–22°C • Room Temperature: ~28°C • Humidity: 65–70% • CO₂: ~666 ppm • PPFD: 500 These conditions are stable and optimized for early autoflower growth, even under 12/12. ⸻ 💡 Lighting — 500 PPFD Under Hyper Red This is where the experiment becomes truly interesting. Plant A (12/12 from seed) Expected behavior: • Compact structure • Fast root establishment • Minimal early stretch • Pre-flower signals earlier than usual Plant B (transition from 15 days veg → 12/12 now) Expected reaction: • A noticeable micro-stretch as she adjusts • Faster metabolism due to increased PPFD • Possible accelerated pre-flower initiation • Bigger structure compared to Plant A, but shorter cycle than full-auto This is brand-new territory — a hybrid between auto behavior, photoperiod cues, and full-spectrum LED influence. You’re creating the data that other growers wish they had. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Plant A (Week 1 Seedling) • Steady node development • Strong root explosion due to Pro-Mix • Compact 12/12 posture • Early visible leaf detail • Potential early pistils in 2–3 weeks Plant B (15-Day Veg Auto) • A small stretch phase • Faster assimilation of high PPFD • Earlier bud site formation than typical autos • Possible hybrid flowering pattern: • More structure than 12/12-from-seed autos • Faster than full-auto-on-18/6 This divergence + convergence is the heart of this folder. ⸻ 📊 Metrics Being Tracked • PPFD reaction • Node spacing differences • Morphology between two timelines • Root behavior in two mediums • Light adaptation after the switch • Stress markers (if any) • Onset of flowering • Leaf geometry and macro details Cosmic Noodles will give us two different stories that merge into one final flower. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts Cosmic Noodles is the first folder in the 8×8 project with dual timeframes, making it one of the most experimental and exciting strains in the whole run. Plant A shows the elegance of autos under strict 12/12 from seed. Plant B shows how an auto behaves when given a short traditional veg before switching to a compact flowering cycle. Two beginnings. One destiny. And a lot of beautiful, cosmic data along the way. This report is the foundation for what will likely become one of the most educational folders in the entire project.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6000 (for now A6700 will be doing all future updates) paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Now we've reached day 34. We are now in flowering, we are guiltily carrying with us a bit of vegetative over fertilization but we are sure that we have worked well and that the flowers will not be compromised. The good news is that the plants are exceptionally vigorous and practically do not need fertilizer in the vegetative phase, and it seems to me to be excellent quality. We wait to see the flowers and you will see... Our Wurlz F1 per mea culpa mea culèa mea grandissima culpa shows some signs of overfeeding, the famous yellow tips of the leaves. Let's be clear, this is minor and is due to the fact that these genetics are so good that they need very little or no fertilizer in the vegetative phase. Then if you already have fertilized soil, forget about growing guys, another pro! I gave the recommended doses even a little less to tell the truth of both Aptus and Plagron and the plants more or less all have these small signs of over. LITTLE guys, wait until the end to save if you feel like it, or at least I recommend it. To fix this little thing we go to flush with pH 6.2 and only give Aptus Regulator which should rebalance the plant and soil before delicately moving on to fertilizers for flowering. Site Description ZAMNESIA SEEDS - WURLZ F1 HYBRID AUTOMATIC: EFFECTS TO LEAVE YOUR HEAD IN A WHIRL! As the end product of combining Runtz with Watermelon Candy, Wurlz F1 hybrid Automatic showcases a reliable, uniform, and, above all, easy growing experience. The resulting buds offer mind-blowing flavors and soothing effects, making Wurlz F1 Automatic more than worthy of being on your radar. GROWING WURLZ F1 HYBRID AUTOMATIC As an autoflowering strain, it takes just 9–10 weeks for Wurlz F1 Automatic to move from germination to harvest. Fortunately, there's very little required other than a bit of maintenance along the way. This is partly due to the F1 genetics that make this strain robust and uniform, resulting in plants that reach a similar height and provide a similar (large) yield. Moreover, Wurlz F1 Automatic is highly resistant to disease, pests, and other ailments. Reaching heights of about 65–80cm, Wurlz F1 Automatic is not an overbearing plant and can fit into smaller spaces with zero fuss. Once ready to yield, growers have the potential to see a return in the region of 450–500g/m² indoors and 50–150g/plant outdoors. AROMAS, FLAVORS, AND EFFECTS OF WURLZ F1 HYBRID AUTOMATIC Now we've reached day 34. We are now in flowering, we are guiltily carrying with us a bit of vegetative over fertilization but we are sure that we have worked well and that the flowers will not be compromised. The good news is that the plants are exceptionally vigorous and practically do not need fertilizer in the vegetative phase, and it seems to me to be excellent quality. We wait to see the flowers and you will see... Fertilization for flowering has started again otherwise there is a risk of going from excess to deficiency.

AROMAS, FLAVORS, AND EFFECTS OF WURLZ F1 HYBRID AUTOMATIC After Wurlz F1 Hybrid Automatic wows you with its easygoing growing experience, the best is yet to come: the smoke test. Teeming with terpenes, this cultivar offers a fruity and candy-like flavor tinged with just a little bit of pine for good measure. In terms of effects, Wurlz F1 Automatic is bolstered by 24% THC and a finely tuned array of cannabinoids, making for a soothing, physically relaxing, and, in larger amounts, couch-locking high. So settle in with some of your favorite friends, snacks, and movies; this is relaxation at its finest. As for fertilizers, I'm doing a small comparison experiment to finish off the fertilizers I had at home, it's not 100% indicative, it's only on two specimens but given the stable genetics I decided to try to compare the results of Plagron Vs Aptus , both excellent brands which they will certainly produce beautiful plants which are already of excellent stable genetics. In the next few weeks the comparison will be more evident now the seedlings are still very small and just potted. So seeds of all brands, in addition to these great F1 Hybrids and the entire Zamnesia line, fertilizers and everything related to the world of cannabis, you should buy them from the best online store in the sector www.zamnesia.io

Weekly update on these gorgeous girls. Was gone for 9 days so wasn't sure how they'd look when I returned. Wow did they take off into full flower. They're all looking amazing, it looks like two different phenos which is awesome. Over all excited to see them progress as the flower period just started.

12.12 Ok finaly girls got their move to 16L root pouches and straight inside the tent. I mixed them nice "soil" with 50L all mix 15L worm castings and 40L of coco coir. I mixed those and gave a good first watering with BiiRhizo, Root Juice, alg a-mic, acti vera, grow, tarantula and voodoo juice. Then I placed netting. I'm gonna use it trellis style not bending much. Planning to keep as short veg as possible, so as soon as I'm happy with their size I'll flip to 12/12. Less than a week I think. Second watering I gave "pre flower" nutes which are listed above. I'll go with those without Nirvana and carbo load untill I'll flip to flower. I use these bottles of advenced nutrients that I have but I won't be buying more I think. Exept NIrvana, Tarantula and Voodoo Juice. They look little droopy maybe because little getting used to new homes but they good now already. Also 600w HID coming to replace 26w LED is kinda shocking at first. But yeah seems like awesome genetics, fat healthy leafs and same goes to stems. 💪 Ok coming back at ya next week, maybe I have flipped when we'll back..hope I wont flip too much 😜😅😝👺👌 HAHappy growing! 👽

Resin is increasing and looks like bud sites are ready to start putting on some bulk. Issue with low ph drift reaching 5.2 so I decreased 50ppm with distilled water without calmag to soften the water and counter the drift. After decreasing ppm, ph drift continues, so I flushed for 2 days with distilled water and added back nutrients at half strength to increase to 800 ppm over time.

11/16 Trimmed all plants. Some more than others. Just experimenting. Two are growing fat buds, two are a little behind and one still hasn't even begun flowering. She just keeps getting bushier and spitting out another set of leaves when I think I see pistils. 11/17 Fed and watered. Changed to 12/12 to see if I can trigger the last lady. Gonna give her a couple days. 11/20 Fed and watered and gave them Cal mag. Late bloomer still isn't flowering.

Whew, I am a few days late in posting but I have been MIA. Glad to be back to my plants and gardening. My faithful follower @hindugod even reached out to me to see why I was late in posting my pictures. A Disney Vacation was good for me but not so much for my plants. I also left my husband and two livestock in charge of feeding and protecting my plants from the elements of nature. Miss Dosido continues to dance and grow!! She is dancing her way to 30 inches tall!! And, she had begun to flower. Take a look at the magnified flowering picture!! Our weather has been kinda crazy and hellish- as in HOT- and her leaves are getting burned on the edges even though I have a pool umbrella protecting her from the direct sun. It has been quite hot this past week, but hopefully we will get a break in the weather. Please continue to enjoy my diary and let's chat it up friends.

14 dias desde el cambio a 12/12, tuve que sacarlas para revisarlas, ya que se traspaso una plaga de arañitas, y tuve que aplicar insecticida foliar contra la arañita de anasac, antes que entre de lleno a floracion.
