Started giving the girls 1 hour a night at sub 60. By end of week it's up to 2 but will not exceed this. Added top dressings of azomite, sea kelp and greensand. Phi=1.618 The ratio or proportion, determined by Phi (1.618 …) was known to the Greeks as the “dividing a line in the extreme and mean ratio” and to Renaissance artists as the “Divine Proportion” It is also called the Golden Section, Golden Ratio and the Golden Mean. e = 2.718 The “e” symbol in maths represents Euler’s number which is approximately equal to 2.718 It is considered as one of the most important numbers in mathematics. It is an irrational number and it cannot be represented as a simple fraction. THORIUM Thorium, at atomic number 90, is one of the rarest elements. 232Th is a primordial nuclide, having existed in its current form for over ten billion years; it was formed during the r-process, which probably occurs in supernovae and neutron star mergers. These violent events scattered it across the galaxy. The letter "r" stands for "rapid neutron capture", and occurs in core-collapse supernovae, where heavy seed nuclei such as 56Fe rapidly capture neutrons, running up against the neutron drip line, as neutrons are captured much faster than the resulting nuclides can beta decay back toward stability. Neutron capture is the only way for stars to synthesize elements beyond iron because of the increased Coulomb barriers that make interactions between charged particles difficult at high atomic numbers and the fact that fusion beyond 56Fe is endothermic. Because of the abrupt loss of stability past 209Bi, the r-process is the only process of stellar nucleosynthesis that can create thorium and uranium; all other processes are too slow and the intermediate nuclei alpha decay before they capture enough neutrons to reach these elements. Histogram of estimated abundances of the 83 primordial elements in the Solar system Estimated abundances of the 83 primordial elements in the Solar system, plotted on a logarithmic scale. Thorium, at atomic number 90, is one of the rarest elements. In the universe, thorium is among the rarest of the primordial elements, because it is one of the two elements that can be produced only in the r-process (the other being uranium). POTASSIUM Potassium 40 is a radioisotope that can be found in trace amounts in natural potassium, is at the origin of more than half of the human body activity: undergoing between 4 and 5,000 decays every second for an 80kg man. Along with uranium and thorium, potassium contributes to the natural radioactivity of rocks and hence to the Earth heat. This isotope makes up one ten-thousandth of the potassium found naturally. In terms of atomic weight, it is located between two more stable and far more abundant isotopes (potassium 39 and potassium 41) that make up 93.25% and 6.73% of the Earth total potassium supply respectively. With a half-life of 1,251 billion years, potassium 40 existed in the remnants of dead stars whose agglomeration has led to the Solar System with its planets. Potassium 40 has the unusual property of decaying into two different nuclei: in 89% of cases beta-negative decay will lead to calcium 40, while 11% of the time argon 40 will be formed by electron capture followed by gamma emission at an energy of 1.46 MeV. This 1.46 MeV gamma ray is important, as it allows us to identify when potassium 40 decays. The beta electrons leading to calcium, however, are not accompanied by gamma rays, have no characteristic energies and rarely make it out of the rocks or bodies that contain potassium 40. Beta-minus decay indicates a nucleus with too many neutrons, electron capture a nucleus with too many protons. How can potassium 40 simultaneously have too many of both? The answer reveals one of the peculiarities of the nuclear forces. Everyone has roughly 140g of potassium = 0.016 grams of Potassium 40 = 5.643ounces The charge radius is a fundamental property of the atomic nucleus. Although it globally scales with the nuclear mass as A1/3, the nuclear charge radius also exhibits appreciable isotopic variations that are the result of complex interactions between protons and neutrons. Indeed, charge radii reflect various nuclear structure phenomena such as halo structures6, shape staggering7, shape coexistence8, pairing correlations9,10, neutron skins11, and the occurrence of nuclear magic numbers5,12,13. The term ‘magic number’ refers to the number of protons or neutrons corresponding to completely filled shells. In charge radii, a shell closure is observed as a sudden increase in the charge radius of the isotope just beyond magic shell closure, as seen, for example, at the well-known magic numbers N = 28, 50, 82 and 126 (refs. 5,12–14). In the nuclear mass region near potassium, the isotopes with proton number Z ≈ 20 and neutron number N = 32 are proposed to be magic on the basis of an observed sudden decrease in their binding energy beyond N = 32 (refs. 2,3) and the high excitation energy of the first excited state in 52Ca (ref. 1). Therefore, the experimentally observed a strong increase in the charge radii of calcium4 and potassium5 isotopes between N = 28 and N = 32, and in particular the large radius of 51K and 52Ca (both having 32 neutrons), have attracted substantial attention. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41567-020-01136-5.pdf “A cat has 9 lives” “On cloud 9” “Dressed to the nines” To go “the whole nine yards” “A stitch in time saves nine” “Nine-ness” seems to be synonymous with the maximum, with the furthest extent of what’s possible. With fullness, completion, and when every effort has been exhausted. In the ancient world (which is, let’s face it, is where numbers and their spiritual power were understood SO much more than they are today) the number 9 resonated with sacred structure, and the furthest limitations of this world, before human experience meets the Divine. Perhaps more than any other, the number nine had an extra special significance, which spread far and wide. It features across pretty much all cultures, worldwide, rippling through culture, mythology, history, law and time. Nine is the central number in the ancient Celtic tradition. Nine expresses through the triple Goddess (see Number 3) and in myths of the nine Celtic maidens, or sorceresses. In fact, stories of nine mystical women presiding over nature spread from England, Ireland and Wales, to Scandinavia, Iceland and even as far as Kenya. Even today, it’s tradition for nine groups of nine men to dance around Beltane fires. The limit of winter (which is what Beltane Almost all of the mythological tales from around the world have patterns of the number 9 weaving throughout. The Northern European sagas tell of Odin, who rules over the nine Norse worlds. His trial, to win the secrets of wisdom for mankind, was to hang on the Yggdrasil tree for nine days. Demeter, the Greek Goddess of the Earth searched for nine days for her daughter Persephone (who was in the underworld with Hades). Demeter is often depicted holding nine pieces of corn. Once recovered, Persephone was obliged to spend three months per year below the ground, and nine months above. Native American, Mayan and Aztec myths tell of a total of nine cosmic levels (and many of the temples comprise 9 stories). And in ancient China, nine was the most auspicious number of divine power: the Chinese had nine sacred rites, nine social laws, nine classes of officials in the government and built nine-story pagodas. In astrology, the planet Mars vibrates to the frequency of the nine. The ninth sign of the Zodiac is Sagittarius (where the Sun sails from November 22nd – December 21st) In Tarot, card number nine is the Hermit. In Hinduism, nine is the number of Brahma. In the Greek Sagas, the city of Troy was under siege for nine years.

I believe there might be a problem with the plant. Leaves are turning yellow way too early. The pistils are oxidizing very early too. Maybe she got stressed for some reason and decided to accelerate the whole process.

Coming along now, I think her early breaching caused a bit of a slow-down, could also be due to the transplant or combination but she's on her way. I don't plan on feeding any nutes until week 4 this time around, FFOF seems to be a hot soil so I want to learn from my 1st grow. Happy growing y'all!

Hello! Thank you again for stopping in! Last week was a great and exciting week. I learned a lot to say the least. Biggest lesson LESS WATER!! Haha the plants seem to be growing slower than I expected, but that could just be me rushing things along. 😅 I also added a metal grid to half of the ceiling of tent this week. The panels were only $6 each at Menards and makes hanging and organizing all the needed equipment much easier and not to mention it brings a cleanliness to the work/grow area. I highly suggest them. Day 1 Feb 1st- no water Day 2 Feb 2nd- Watered as needed. Approximately 15ML/plant distilled water. Day 3 Feb 3rd- Watered each plant with 15ml Coconut water mixed at 50ml/gallon. 1 Tahoe OG is growing nicely while other one continues to yellow. Im lost for what to do to correct issue as both are in same environment? Day 4 Feb 4th- watered 20 ml per plant. Moved two more super skunk seedlings to tent. Ordered a humidity controller so I can keep a more consistent humidity. Day 5 Feb 5th- watered all plants with distilled water at a PH of 6.3. Flushed Tahoe OG #2... notnsure why it was yellowing when all other conditions are.same.and Tahoe OG #1 is flourishing.  Tahoe #1 60 ml Tahoe #2 flushed 150 ml SS #1  75 ml SS #2 60 ml SS #3 90 ml SS #4 75 ml SS #5 75 ml SS #6 50 ml SS #7 50 ml SS #8 20 ml Day 6 Feb 6th- no water today. SS #8 died. It honestly never really lived. It sprouted but no leaves ever opened. Added metal grating and humidity controller. The humidity controller is amazing.. well worth the $. It keeps my tent between 67-73 relative humidity. Will be able to dehumidify when the time comes as well. I like a clean tent as well as save. All electrical cords minus 1 are at the top of tent and the 1 is well above the water line. I know this isn't a huge deal as I self water, but better safe than sorry. Day 7 Feb 7th- all plants got 30 ml of coconut water and a healthy foliar spray of distilled water. I've seen some good growth this week and hope to see it continue through next week. I did have one SS seedling not make it this week and one Tahoe OG hasn't shown any growth and is completely yellow/golden brown. I still have it going but not sure what to do or if there is any hope. As always thank you for stopping in. Please like and comment so I know whose following along so I csn reciprocate the kindness. Keep growing!

High temps & dry

Flowering week 3. Everything is ok. I made a light defoliation.

🌱 8×8 Adventure – Chem Brûlée (Plant A) | Week 4 Building Strength Before the Fireworks Begin Welcome back to another chapter of my 8×8 Adventure, a project where twelve unique cultivars are sharing the exact same environment while every phenotype is documented individually throughout its entire life cycle. Growing every plant under identical conditions allows each genetic to tell its own story, revealing the subtle differences in growth habits, structure, vigor, and personality that make phenotype hunting such an exciting experience. This week we’re shining the spotlight on Chem Brûlée – Plant A, a lady that has quietly been building an impressive foundation while showing signs that she’s ready to become one of the standout plants in the room. Every update she becomes a little bigger, a little stronger… and a little more interesting. ⸻ 🌿 Life Inside the 8×8 Jungle The environment continues to provide ideal conditions for healthy development across the entire garden. This week the room has been running at approximately: • 🌡️ Temperature: 33.3°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 63% • ⚡ Nutrient Solution EC: 1.36 mS/cm • pH: 6.12 • 💦 Reservoir Temperature: 25.7°C Despite the warmer temperatures, vigorous airflow keeps fresh air moving throughout the canopy while maintaining healthy transpiration. Every cultivar continues receiving exactly the same care, making the differences between genetics even more fascinating to observe. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Program Chem Brûlée continues receiving the same balanced feeding schedule as the rest of the garden. Nutrition this week: • Plagron Terra Grow • Plagron Power Roots • Plagron Pure Zym • Plagron Vita Race (foliar application) The response has been excellent. Healthy color, sturdy stems, and vigorous new growth suggest she’s making great use of everything available to her. ⸻ 🌱 Growth & Development This lady has really started to find her rhythm. Over the past week she has put on noticeable vertical growth while maintaining a beautifully symmetrical structure. Every new node appears clean, evenly spaced, and packed with healthy growth. One characteristic immediately catches my attention… Those fan leaves. They’re becoming absolutely enormous. Each new set seems broader than the last, creating an impressive solar panel capable of capturing every bit of available light. The leaf color remains beautifully uniform, with rich green tones extending from the oldest foliage right into the newest growth. Structurally she’s also beginning to separate herself from some of the other cultivars in the room. Where others are stretching aggressively or branching heavily, Chem Brûlée seems determined to build a thick, balanced framework first. She feels composed. Confident. Like she’s quietly preparing for something special later in flower. Although she’s beginning to show increasing activity around the upper nodes, I’m still considering her firmly in vegetative growth as she continues investing her energy into building size and strength. ⸻ ✂️ Training & Canopy Management This week has been all about allowing the plant to develop naturally while making only small adjustments where necessary. A little leaf tucking has helped expose developing side branches, allowing more light to penetrate deeper into the canopy without removing valuable foliage. At this stage those massive fan leaves are working in her favor, fueling rapid growth while protecting the young shoots beneath. Sometimes the best training is simply knowing when to leave a healthy plant alone. Right now she’s rewarding that patience. ⸻ 🚀 Looking Ahead I’m genuinely excited to see where this phenotype decides to go. Every week she’s revealing a little more character, and it’s becoming increasingly clear that she won’t simply blend into the rest of the room. With her broad leaves, strong central stem, and balanced branching, I wouldn’t be surprised if she develops into one of the dominant plants inside the tent once flowering is fully underway. For now, the plan remains simple: Continue providing a stable environment. Allow her natural vigor to lead the way. Keep encouraging healthy structure without rushing her development. Sometimes the strongest performers are the ones that spend a little more time building the foundation. ⸻ 💚 Final Thoughts One of the greatest joys of this project is watching every cultivar write its own story. Chem Brûlée isn’t trying to imitate anyone else in the room. She’s growing at her own pace, building her own architecture, and showing characteristics that already make her stand apart from the crowd. Those beautiful oversized fan leaves… The vigorous vertical growth… The healthy, vibrant canopy… Everything points toward a plant with enormous potential. I’m incredibly curious to see how this unique phenotype expresses herself once flowering begins. The journey is only just getting started. ⸻ A huge thank you to Plagron for providing the outstanding nutrition that keeps this garden thriving, Zamnesia for the incredible genetics and equipment helping bring this project to life, and of course to the entire GrowDiaries community for all the support, encouragement, and inspiration throughout this adventure. Growers Love and thank you all for following along with my 8×8 Adventure. I’ll see you in the next update, where Chem Brûlée will continue revealing exactly what she’s capable of. 🌱🔥

This is the week right before the 24 hour dark period and switch to 12-12 looking very healthy

Start to add bigbud today with tapwater

🌱 Week 3, Day 7 Update: Buds Are Blooming! 🌿 Hey Grow Fam, We're cruising through Week 3, and my girl is really coming on—buds are starting to form, and it's a sight to behold! The girl is growing so fast now, drinking 4.5L a day. She could even do with in-between waterings, in my opinion. She's aiming for the stars and shooting for the moon, getting bigger every day and stinking out my room. I had to tie my light higher up with some rope as it wouldn't go any higher, and shoots were getting way too close! I did SCROG when flipping, and I should've been a bit more strict on it (did it longer), but now I realize why SCROG is used. Imagine if I never used it—she would be way too tall. Overall, I'm so happy with how she is growing and can't wait to see the final product. :) But, as with any journey, we've hit a little bump in the road. Despite keeping our feeding consistent at 850ppm, the runoff readings have been creeping up. Last check-in showed a runoff of 1400ppm. It's got me thinking we might be dealing with a salt buildup in the root zone. To address this, I'm sticking with our feeding routine at 800-850ppm. If the runoff ppm keeps climbing or if our plants start showing signs of nutrient burn, I will adjust accordingly, but as of right now, I'm sticking to the same feed as she looks great! ( If I do begin to notice signs of nutrient burn (excess), I will try to water with a lower EC/PPM, like 700ppms, to bring it down. But if I don't get the results I'm hoping for, I will just flush the plant with 3x the media size of water (just plain pH water) to wash out any old salts and reset the medium. You don't really want to do this with coco depending on what stage your at in flower, veg on the other hand flush.? Sure!, if you really need to reset that medium go for it, (i do see tiny signs of burn but thats fine if it gets worse then i have a problem) Let's stay focused and keep our eyes on the prize—beautiful healthy buds. We've got this! #GrowUpdate #Week3 #BudsBlooming #KeepGrowing 🌱🌿

Day 57. Girls are slowly growing, i never had good results with autos outdoors, but i never trained them or topped them too. This grow looks again like an ounce a plant ... Have 2 beans of each strain, will try it out in winter indoors. Lemon OG should grow huge trees. Want to see that strain pure indoors. Time has come, i know indoor Garden just bulks up, but i have visitors this weekend and i want to leave only cucumbers and tomatoes inside of greenhouse . RQS pots will be tomatoe , i have even strawberry planted with them ;))) All Cookie clones was thrown out, so i left one strong Gorilla clone in one pot and two weaker ones in other. Those 3 RQS genetics pots will finish that diary. I hope to chop everything tonight indoors and move Auto girls to second night in the row, just this time indoors , next morning. Day 58. Girls moved into new house ;) Day 59. Girls got pure ph water and medium training. Couple leaves, small bud sites off, couple branches bended and thats it. Top lair of soil was renewed. I like to add a bit when they start to bloom, it always worked well for me. Whiteys are smallest ,Diesels flowering fast and are tall, Lemon OG's are super huge, i will do them in normal indoor 18 hours run, think they are really great strain. Day 60. Girls a bit in shock, don't want to drink so fast as i would hope for , but ... Only one OG is a bit too bright, all other girls are in amazing state. One Whitey has a very funky tops, looks like future mutant monster top cola ;))) Future will show ...

Dutch Passions Shaman Sieben Tage ohne gießen: Shamanin No. 2 sah ziemlich welk aus. Mega Trockenstress aber zwei Stunden nach einem ausgiebigen Tauchbad sieht sie aus, als wäre nichts gewesen. Shamanin No. 1 im 30 Liter Topf hat es Problemlos überstanden. Auf einem der Fotos hat sich eine kleine Spinne perfekt getarnt, die Beine sehen aus wie Stigmen. Shamanin No. 2 braucht auch mehr Wurzelraum, oder eine Tropfbewässerung.

Ezen a hèten kapott utoljára tápoldatot.Tiszta szűrt vízzel öntözöm.Szèpen sárgulnak ès hullanak a levelek.

Tolle Pflanze die so gut wie keine Probleme gemacht hat. Bei rel. Luftfeuchte von 35-40% unter anderem aus Angst vor Schimmel war auf einigen Sonnensegeln Mehltau zu finden durch regelmäßiges absammeln der Blätter aber kein Problem.

Things are going really well for this lady. She has continued to produce copious amounts of tricombes and the smell is just unbelievable. I've had to source some air fresheners to hang around the garden to try and mask it. I've removed a few of the new growth at the bottom of the main stem a some they are only going to suck energy that can be better used.
