A week full of adversities, lots of mold on the main buds. I increased ventilation and air exchange, but unfortunately it wasn't enough. I lost the biggest top of Baker's #1 due to mold, and to prevent the harvest and reduce plant transpiration (since I couldn't lower the humidity), I decided to remove some buds from most of the plants at the end of week 7. I left the most promising ones and those where I didn't see mold. I left the tent open every day and night to reduce humidity, but I still had problems with some moldy buds at the end of week 8. But it's all good, everything has been a learning experience so far. I've made good friends and continue to learn more each day. I have some clones that are revegetating and maybe I'll bring a new project. Thank you to everyone who dedicated some of their time to this diary. I express my gratitude, and if it helped you in any way, leave a comment! See you next time, I'll still bring photos of the fully cured buds.

🌱 Week 2 — Purple CousKush Auto | Pheno A | The Little Rebel Finds Her Way Every grow has that one plant that keeps you guessing. When Purple CousKush Auto Pheno A first emerged, she immediately stood out from her sisters. Instead of developing the classic central growing tip, her apical meristem seemed confused, almost as if nature had decided to improvise. At first glance I honestly wondered if she had naturally topped herself, if the main shoot had stalled, or if she was simply going to remain a tiny mutant. Rather than intervene, I decided to do what every grower should occasionally do… Nothing. Sometimes the best decision is to step back and allow the plant to tell her own story. A week later, she has done exactly that. The strange beginning has transformed into one of the most interesting phenotypes in the room. Instead of forcing a single dominant leader, she has begun producing multiple vigorous growing tips from the center, creating a naturally compact structure that already looks fuller than expected for her age. She may be smaller than her sisters, but she certainly isn’t weaker. In fact, she seems to have invested her energy into building a sturdy frame with very tight internodal spacing. The stem is becoming thicker every day, side branches are developing evenly, and the new growth is vibrant, healthy, and full of life. Her architecture is completely different from the other Purple CousKush phenotypes, reminding us why growing from seed is always such an adventure. Every individual expresses the genetics in its own unique way. This is exactly why I love documenting these grows. If I had judged her during Week 1, I might have assumed she would never become anything special. Instead, patience has rewarded me with one of the most fascinating little plants in the entire 8×8 Adventure. Sometimes the odd ones simply need a little extra time before revealing their true personality. Environment remains stable inside the tent, with temperature, humidity and VPD staying right where I want them. The Plagron substrate continues to provide an excellent home for healthy root development, while the Zamnesia ecosystem keeps everything running smoothly under consistent lighting and airflow. For now, there is nothing to correct. No stress. No intervention. Just observation. I’ll continue letting her write her own story while I simply provide the conditions she needs to thrive. If Week 2 has taught me anything, it’s this: Not every champion starts with a perfect beginning. Some simply take the scenic route. 💚 Growers Love and thank you to Plagron, Zamnesia, Grow Diaries, and everyone following this 8×8 Adventure. Every week reminds me that every seed carries its own personality, and this little Purple CousKush has already become one of the most memorable characters in the garden.

27/02/19 - Cant wait for these to be done as I’ve never had gelato before so I feel like I’m missing out 😂 but yeah other than I let them stretch abit taller than I usually prefer it’s all going well, new genetics/nutrients/medium seem to be doing the job. 02/03/19 - Just transplanted all into their final pot, just in time I think as it looked like the roots were starting to circle at the bottoms of the pot, sprinkled half a tea spoon of Mykos on each hole prior to the transplant & fed them 2.5 litres each. I was going to saturate the whole pot but I’ll do that next feeding.

Week 4 Veg Report - TrolMaster Chronicles 🌱 What a week it’s been in the garden! We finally transplanted the Papaya Zoap into its final Autopot, and let me tell you, this plant is something special. Though her roots weren’t quite where I wanted them to be yet, the move was needed to help her catch up with the rest of the crew. She’s already looking fantastic in her new home, and I have no doubt she’s about to explode with growth in the coming days. Sometimes, you just have to trust the process, and I’m feeling like this is one of those moments. It’s almost as if the room itself is taking on a life of its own. 🌿 In fact, I’m starting to believe that what we’re building here is something greater than ourselves—there’s this energy in the room, a feeling of everything coming together perfectly. I can’t wait to see how this journey unfolds! Dialing in the VPD with TrolMaster’s Tech Now, let’s talk VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) and how I’ve been keeping everything in check with the Tend-X and the incredible (DSH-2U) Humidity Station. VPD is crucial to plant health—it’s all about finding that perfect balance between humidity and temperature to optimize transpiration and nutrient uptake. The (DSH-2U) Humidity Station, connected directly to my humidifier, has been an absolute game-changer in this regard. With its real-time data and automation, it allows me to monitor and adjust the RH with pinpoint accuracy. Simple yet brilliant, the (DSH-2U) Humidity Station is keeping my room at the sweet spot I need. Whether I’m tweaking the settings from my phone while I’m out and about or just fine-tuning things while relaxing at home, this machine does it all. It’s like having an extra pair of hands in the grow room—and when you’re managing something as complex as VPD, that’s invaluable! And yes, the TM+ Pro App—let’s not forget how awesome it is. I’m adjusting my grow room from the couch, the car, or even the bathroom 😜. I’ve said it before, but this app is making growing easier than ever. Feeding the Girls: The Perfect Blend 🌱 We’ve upped the game by adding CaMg-Boost at 0.25 ml/L to the feeding schedule. Along with the 1 ml/L of the all-in-one liquid, this brings the TDS up to 320 ppm, with a pH of 5.99 and solution temperature of 24.8°C. In the soil, readings are around 415 ppm, with temperatures hovering around 25°C The plants are absolutely thriving, and I can already see the difference this new feed is making. I can’t help but have a bit of fun with this process—it feels like I’m spoiling them with the best of the best. And they’re rewarding me with beautiful growth and vibrant green color. You know how it is, with the right care and attention, these plants are truly becoming a masterpiece in the making. 🌱 Shoutouts 💚 Big shoutout to TrolMaster and ThinkGrow LED for the phenomenal gear that’s making this grow smoother than ever. Also, massive thanks to Aptus Holland for their top-notch nutrition, and of course, to the community here on GrowDiaries—you guys keep the energy alive! 🌱 Last but definitely not least, shoutout to all the seed banks supporting this journey. You’ve been a huge part of this process, and I couldn’t do it without you! Remember, for exclusive behind-the-scenes content and updates in real time, head over to my Instagram and YouTube channels @DogDoctorOfficial. We’ve got tons of epic content lined up, and you won’t want to miss it! P.S. Let’s talk about the new Model One LED Bars—these beauties are not only powerful but super efficient. I’ve been able to dim them down, save on electricity costs, and still maintain an incredible PAR and spectrum. It’s all about fine-tuning the balance of power and performance, and these lights make it easy to get the best results while being eco-friendly. Whether you’re running them full throttle or dialing it back, you’re still getting optimal growth conditions for your plants. That’s the kind of innovation that takes your grow to the next level. 💡 Growers Love to all 🌿💚

Nothing much to report, nice development week and next week she is going to be transplanted to a 9 liter pot to give room for the roots

Esta semana quitamos productos, que termine bien de chupar todo el alimento, y que hinchen ya estás últimas semanas. .tambien lavaremos la raíces esta semana para quitar el alimento sobrante y las sales acumuladas. Empezaremos con el ESTRÉS HÍDRICO:el cual cada vez que regamos, regamos menos cantidad , así La Niña resina estas últimas semanas. Os incluyo vídeos.

After 20 days in seedling stage. I stopped watering. Planted into bigger pots using new organic soil.

I gave away 1 plant and the other got damage with a broken stem hopefully it recover. This is the only Skunk I am considering for now male or female I’m ready.

Not as good of a week that it has been they shot up about foot and got lil stressed and light bleached bud stop growing under the optic 6 not smelling as good had to throw the net away so couldn’t lower the plant due to net shoot up so fast maybe I learn and I’ll try do it better next time

Chopped the first one 6.9 and the second one 6.13. The both smell strong of musky fruit but one has a more spicier scent than the other. I will update the harvest when I get final weights and smoke this shit

Still have these ladies in there Solo cups will most likely pot these girls this week Finally moved these ladies over to there pots looking good for now Oh yea no nuts just yet still going with PH bal water

Significant change this week with the light schedule from 18/6 to 12/12. She has developed nicely with her canopy growth. The N13 has plenty of auxiliary shoots sprouted at every angle her stem is robust and she stands at 53cm. From here on she will receive phd balanced water with amino acids as requntil week five!

01-12-2020 ,19:30 kor el szórtam a magokat 06-12-2020 Elültettem a palántákat,,az Afgan kush még nincs kint 08-12-2020 Afgan kush előbújt, növekszik

11/26/24 11/27/24 this plant is blowing all expectations. this was the least promising looking pheno. these buds are so fucking dense. the trichomes are visibily standing ontop of the buds. the plant is 75% bud with 15% stem and 10% leaf. she is visibly fattening daily. i cant get over how hard these buds are though. the nodes are all growing into eachother and turning into long fat colas. absolutely beautiful genetics and im excited to see what the other phenos

Amazing it came to flowering stages after the rough vegetation

July 5: Tropicana Cookies FF is very nicely symmetric and fast growing. She’s on schedule and doing great. One more week of veg and then I will start force flowering on July 11. July 7: grew 3+ inches in two days.Lower leaves showing a deficiency that seems to be a lack of phosphorus. Added a 1:1 mix of Power Bloom and barley as a top dressing. About a week early for first flowering nutes but she’s asking for it. July 10: still growing evenly after the final round of topping. I was going to start force flowering (12 h darkness every night for 20 days or so) in two days but I’ll let this wagon (paired with Lemon Cream Kush) veg for another week to get a bit bigger.

Week 19/02 - 25/02

This thing stinks! Dank smell everywhere in the garden. Happy days;) gave the last feed of terra bloom and now i will flush with 3liters of phd water at a time when the soil is dry. Many leaves started the transformation to red now. I think that will be even more visible after the first flushload
