Hello Growmies, The final chapter of this incredible journey has unfolded, and it's time to share the bountiful harvest and reflections on the entire cultivation process. Trimming the plant was a joy, and with gentle fingers, I removed all the large fan leaves. The precision in this process revealed the true beauty of the buds, setting the stage for a smooth harvest. With care and gratitude, the plant was chopped, and the buds were hung to dry. The anticipation for what lies ahead only adds to the sense of accomplishment. The wet weight, excluding fan leaves, stands at an impressive 782 grams. The buds are massive, a testament to the efficacy of the nutrients used, particularly the Power Buds. The name seems apt, as the result is a collection of sticky, dense buds with subtle lemon notes and sweet pungent undertones. In the final moments, the plant unveiled some delightful purple hues. While I wish I could have allowed them to intensify further, it's a reminder that each grow is a learning experience. In hindsight, a slightly longer fading period would have accentuated those beautiful colors. We live and learn, and that's the essence of this journey. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron and Zamnesia for hosting this amazing contest. The quality of the products and the support throughout the journey have been invaluable. As this chapter concludes, I'm left with a sense of fulfillment and gratitude for the collective experience we've shared. The plant's growth, from seed to harvest, has been a testament to the art and science of cultivation. Feel free to check out my other adventures in my bigger environments, until then...happy growing! Stay Lifted Salokin

Week 5 on these amazing girls. They're full into the flower stage and the smells are starting to come through super strong. I've switched over to bloom nutes and they seemed to never skip a beat. All in all excited to see what the coming weeks have in store. Happy Growing.

Plant recovered pretty good after ph problem, too much enhancer i think Light is doing its job good as you can see. Nutes at low levels...

I'm watering with only water because I prepared the soil with organic dry amendments by guanokalong,veg pearls, seaweed powder and bat guano,looks like she's gonna be a beautiful plant,she is already but I meant A very productive and big one haha. Peace everybody! ✌️

Week seventeenth (nine in bloom),114/58F day is behind us! ✌️🌼 Chop day is finally here! ?👌🍾🍾🍾✌️ With this, I’ve officially completed one of my childhood side quests! 😅😂😎🏆 The buds are still drying, with the final trim and jar curing still ahead of us. ✌️ The first run is slowly coming to an end. 🌼🔥 Good luck every one! ✌️ Any tips or advice are always welcome 😂🔥

Day 1: - 1ml terra grow, 1ml pure zyme, 0.5ml power roots. 1L solution / 3 Plant Day 2: no water Day 3: 1,3L / 3 Plant Day 4: no water Day 5: 1,3L / 3 Plant Day 6: no water Day 7: no water

Started training them out and did some super cropping on some taller sites to even them all out will do some more topping once they get taller.

Welcome! In this grow we have: 2x Platinum Wedding Crasher 2x Gelato 41 1x Sour OG 2x Lemon Kush Germination/Rooting - 14 Days 9/17/21 - The clones look good in solo cups of soil. We will transplant into 5 gallon pots in the grow tent after they fully root in the cups. 9/18/21 - Looks like the clones are doing well in soil! We are so excited to grow these out. The clones came from a very highly respected grower. 9/19/21 - No ugly growth. All clones look amazing! We upgraded the light to a Mars TSW 2000. 9/20/21 - They are looking good and most likely rooting throughout the cups. I’ll give them a little bit of water today. I want the roots to go looking for the water so I’ve kept them slightly dry. 9/21/21 - They look happy. I will let them just do their thing… We are waiting on our Mars TSW 2000 light to show up anyways. No roots visible from the drainage holes in the cups. 9/22/21 - Looking really healthy and growing nicely. I’m excited for them to fully root in the cups so we can transplant them into the tent. The Mars TSW 2000 should be here in the next few days. 9/23/21 - Looking so good! We can’t wait to get these under the Mars TSW 2000 in the tent. They smell and look great. 9/24/21 - The clones look really good except for one Sour OG. It wilted and died, roots did not take unfortunately. I have a Lemon Kush started from seed we will grow in place of the dead Sour OG. Today we got our Mars Hydro TSW 2000 light. We will be hanging it and updating with pics/videos. 9/25/21 - They look amazing. Lots of growth while rooting. 9/26/21 - So far so good. Watering when the cups get light in weight. In just a few days we will be transplanting. See the video for today, we hung the Mars Hydro TSW 2000! 9/27/21 - Watered them yesterday, they look healthy. The Lemon Kush isn’t a clone, it is from seed. It’s the smallest girl but it’ll perk up quickly. 9/28/21 - Transplant day!! The clones are looking really good and it’s time to transplant into the 4x4 under that Mars Hydro TSW 2000 at 50% intensity. Check out the pictures and videos from today!

5 week vegetating. The nutrient overdose is still there. I was outside the weekend and the plant growed too quick (doubled in size in 5 days) so it got burnt with the lamp as yo can see in the pictures. I think it will act likea a topping but i don't know the real impact yet. I have set up an scrog to try to contain the height (1 week later due to logistic problems). The root system is insane and healthy. I think she is near to start flowering maybe this week or the next week. Day 36 update- as you can see the plant is preflowering. I won't change the nutrient solution yet to avoid another fertilization excess. when the plant recover from scrog and prunning i will change to flowering nutrient dose at 80%.

Ran 9.5 weeks Whole plant hang dry 17 days Growing wasnt easy, would not recommend to beginner, not heavy eater, but other than that she was a dream to grow, genetics spot on!

Was a great strain to grow. Had minor ph issues during grow. Was just shy of a quarter pound in roughly 90 day grow. Thanks again sweet seeds was a great strain . Feel free to follow me on my YouTube channel. I appreciate the support 👍

Sorry I missed a few weeks was outta town and not able to update! Things hav been going well! Took some time for em to start growing fast! But they are growing fast! Gonna need some rest from the topping and training from the bud clips. I think I got the manifold line down for all the plants! The og kush I accidentally fimmed it was dramatic lol but made it thru and still growing strong! Makes me laugh fim stands for “fuck I missed” but all this is trial and error for me! Any advice is appreciated! “ happy growing”

Week 3 and a repot is done and now in day 3. Finally it’s settling down after the repot, which was not pretty at all😂 Hope to get some massive plants this run 🌱 ________________________________________________________________________________________ Light from @MedicGrowLED 😎 NEO 780 LED🔥 780 Watt⚡️💥 PPF of 2184 μmol/s & 2.8 μmol/J🔥 Full Spectrum V1/F1 🌈 WiFi smart connection & Smart Aura Control 😱

💎 Black Diamond Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 8 | She's Everywhere Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! And this week, I have to admit something... I have absolutely no idea where this girl is going. And I love it. 😂💚 Black Diamond Pheno A has officially reached the point where I stop trying to predict what she's going to become and simply enjoy watching her do it. Every week I think I've figured out her structure. Then she does something else. This week? She's building main-cola-sized flowers everywhere. Not just one dominant central cola. Not a huge top surrounded by little side flowers. I'm talking about substantial flowering structures developing all the way down the plant, with some of the lower flowers already starting to resemble little baseballs. And the craziest part? There is almost no popcorn. She's simply turning branch after branch into proper flowering sites. This Black Diamond is something special. 🌱 The 12/12 From Seed Adventure For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure. Every plant in this project is being grown under a 12 hours on / 12 hours off light schedule from seed. There is no traditional vegetative period. No extended growth phase. No special treatment for individual phenotypes. Every plant receives the same environment, the same lighting strategy, the same feeding philosophy and the same general care. The genetics are the variable. And that's exactly what makes this experiment so fascinating. When twelve plants are given essentially the same conditions and one of them decides to become a completely different creature... that's the phenotype talking. And Black Diamond Pheno A certainly has something to say. 💎 She's Building Colas Everywhere Last week I described this plant as tall, elegant and balanced. This week? I'm starting to think "balanced" isn't quite enough anymore. At 169 cm, she has developed an incredible vertical structure with flowering sites distributed throughout the plant. But what really catches my attention is the consistency of flower development. Normally, when looking at a plant this size, you expect the hierarchy to be obvious: One main cola. A few strong secondary branches. Then progressively smaller flowers as you move down the plant. Black Diamond Pheno A seems to have decided that hierarchy is optional. Her central cola is still the largest and most obvious flower. Of course it is. But the secondary branches are not behaving like secondary flowers anymore. They're becoming colas in their own right. And even further down the plant, I'm seeing flowers developing with enough volume that calling them "lower buds" almost feels unfair. They're becoming little towers. Some are already approaching baseball-sized proportions. And there is remarkably little popcorn hiding underneath. That is what has me so excited. 🍃 Still Untouched Perhaps the most interesting part of this whole story is what hasn't happened. I haven't topped her. I haven't HST'd her. I haven't performed aggressive defoliation. I haven't stripped the interior. I haven't tried to force her into a particular shape. The only intervention has been the occasional leaf tuck when a large fan leaf was blocking a developing flower. That's it. And now I'm looking at this plant thinking... Maybe she never needed me to shape her in the first place. 😂 This is one of those grows that reminds you that sometimes genetics already have a plan. Our job isn't always to create the structure. Sometimes it's simply to provide the environment and get out of the way. ☀️ She's Eating Every Photon She Can Find And this girl certainly isn't wasting the light. Top canopy? She's using it. Inner canopy? She's using it. Lower canopy? Apparently she wants that too. And now that the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting has joined the party, I'm extremely curious to see how far this phenotype can push flower development throughout the entire vertical structure. The whole idea behind the under-canopy lighting was to give those normally shaded areas access to additional usable light. And Black Diamond Pheno A seems to have plenty of flowering real estate available to take advantage of it. She's capturing photons from above. She's capturing photons from between the branches. She's capturing photons from underneath. At this point I'm almost convinced she's going around the room looking for the last photon that hasn't been claimed yet. 😂💚 💡 Lumiflora Under-Canopy Lighting This is now becoming a particularly interesting part of the experiment. The top of the plant is obviously receiving plenty of light from the main fixtures. But look at the structure of this girl. There are flowers developing everywhere. That makes light distribution throughout the canopy increasingly important. The under-canopy lighting isn't intended to replace the primary fixtures. It's simply another layer of light reaching areas that would naturally receive less. And this is exactly the kind of plant where I want to observe the result. Will the lower flowers continue developing with impressive density? Will the middle of the plant continue filling out? Will the overall flower distribution become more uniform? We're going to find out. I'm not expecting miracles. I'm expecting observation. And that's one of the reasons this project is so much fun. 🌸 Flower Development Is Getting Serious The difference from last week is becoming very obvious. The flowers are no longer simply forming. They're building structure. Calyxes are stacking. Pistils are filling the flowers. Sugar leaves are becoming increasingly covered in visible resin. And the individual flowers are beginning to gain the shape and volume that tells you the real bulking phase is approaching. The central cola is beautiful. But honestly? I'm almost more interested in everything around it. Because when you look down the branches, you keep finding another flower. And another. And another. There is no obvious point where the plant suddenly says: "Okay, that's enough. Everything below this is popcorn." Instead, she just keeps producing. Cola after cola after cola. ❄️ The Frost Is Coming Along for the Ride Another thing becoming increasingly obvious in this week's photographs is the resin coverage. The sugar leaves are carrying a beautiful layer of visible trichomes, and the flowers themselves are becoming increasingly frosty. The close-up photographs really show it. We're still not at the final destination. There's plenty of flower maturation and swelling ahead. But Black Diamond is already giving us a preview of what she's capable of. And I have a feeling that once the flowers really start packing on weight, the visual difference could become spectacular. 💧 Feeding This Week The feeding program continues to support the increasingly demanding flowering phase. This week's recorded recipe: Plagron Terra Bloom — 2.2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L Plagron Green Sensation — 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L Plagron pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L Plagron Lemon Kick — 0.03 ml/L The nutrient solution is being maintained around pH 6.0, with the recorded EC/TDS reading at approximately 2.0 mS/cm. Watering volume is currently around 1.3 L per plant per 24 hours. And the plant is responding beautifully. No obvious signs of nutritional stress. No dramatic deficiencies. No major environmental complaints. Just growth. Flower production. And more flower production. 🌡️ Environmental Conditions The environment remains stable and consistent, which is exactly what I want during this stage. Current conditions: 🌸 Flowering: Week 8 📏 Height: 169 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 🌱 Substrate temperature: 21°C 💧 Nutrient solution temperature: 21°C 🌬️ CO₂: 639 ppm 💦 Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h The goal remains simple: Keep the environment stable and let the plant perform. 📸 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs might be some of my favourites of this phenotype so far. The full-plant images show just how impressive her structure has become. The close-ups tell an even better story. Everywhere you look there is another flowering site. The central cola is developing beautifully, but then you move your eyes down the plant and suddenly discover another substantial flower. And another. And another. Some of those lower flowers are already surprisingly large. The sugar leaves are carrying a beautiful layer of frost. The pistils are still predominantly fresh and white, telling us that there is plenty of development still ahead. And the most remarkable thing? This plant still hasn't been defoliated. She's lush. She's green. She's full. She's flowering everywhere. And somehow she's making it work. 🔮 Looking Ahead This is officially the part of the grow where I'm going to stop making predictions. 😂 Because every time I think I know what Black Diamond Pheno A is going to do... She proves me wrong. What I can say is that the next weeks should be fascinating. The flowers should continue swelling. The calyxes should become more pronounced. Resin production should increase. And those numerous secondary flowering structures have the potential to become some seriously impressive flowers. I'm particularly interested in watching those lower and inner flowers. Because if they continue developing at anything close to the rate we're seeing now... this plant could become an absolute monster from top to bottom. And that's without me forcing her to do it. 💎 Let Her Shine This phenotype has taught me something throughout this run. Sometimes you don't need to push a plant. You don't need to manipulate every branch. You don't need to remove every leaf. You don't need to create the structure yourself. Sometimes... you just need to give the genetics the opportunity to show you what they can do. Black Diamond Pheno A has been given that opportunity. And she's taking it. She's capturing light from the top. She's using the inner canopy. She's reaching into the lower canopy. She's taking advantage of the under-canopy lighting. She's building flowers everywhere. She's filling spaces where I expected to find popcorn. And she's doing all of this while simply being allowed to grow. At this point, I'm not trying to tell her what she should become. I'm just watching. I'm learning. And I'm enjoying the show. Because honestly... I have no idea where this girl is going. But wherever she's going... I absolutely love the direction. 💎🌱 💚 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure. Thank you to GrowDiaries for providing a place where growers can document, compare, learn and inspire one another. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Black Diamond genetics that gave us this fascinating phenotype to follow. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting the plants throughout the run. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for providing the main lighting driving this project. Thank you to Lumiflora for joining the adventure and giving us the opportunity to explore what additional under-canopy lighting can contribute to a plant with this kind of structure. And thank you to TrolMaster for helping maintain the stable environment behind the scenes. And finally, thank you to everyone reading, commenting, asking questions and following these plants week after week. Every phenotype in the 8×8 Adventure has its own personality. But Black Diamond Pheno A? She's becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. She's not making one main cola. She's making a whole collection of them. And I can't wait to see what happens next. Growers Love. 💚🌱💎

Die Woche war ganz gut Blätter haben kurz mal gehangen hab dan aber gegossen dan war alles wider gut ich hoffe das sie in Woche 5 langsam in die Blüte geht

Day 78. All is good, think next weekend is last day for two Alaskan Diesels. Need to put few pure water waterings through them. Other girls still need food, so I took all N and CalMag away and will keep feeding for few more weeks. Northern Lights are ridiculous behind ... But they were in shade and still trying to achieve something .... Happy Growing !!!

Fastbuds Smoothie Auto 🔸🔸🔸05/03/2023🔸🔸🔸 📝Saturday 06.10.23 - As this week comes to an end, I am seeing signs that the plants need a bit of calcium, so today was a topdressing day with a 70/30 blend of Bloom to Grow, watered in with H20 PG to 6.2 with CalMag at 5ML per Gallon of H20. 📝Thursday 06.08.23 Two of these ladies are really rocking it, 1 of these ladies is moving very slowly. , Moved the Medic Grow Smart 8 LED into the Flowering setting, increasing the Far Reds, check out the above slide and the amazing PFD! 🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸 ▪️Grown By: MrJones ▪️Medic Grow Smart 8 LED / Settings 60% & F1 ▪️@medicgrow420 ▪️@fastbuds_genetics_official ▪️@gaiagreenorganics ▪️Soil - ProMix HP 🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸 📝Smoothie Auto is the result of a cross between Somango and Blueberry, and really brings out the best of both worlds; a well-statured plant ideal for all types of growers.

During the later weeks of growth, some can expect purple hues to appear on the leaves.

Never used it . Bug on site.

Number two and number three look the same so far one just kind of taller than the other. I also had a bit of a overwatering issue that seems to be fixed but overall she’s pretty.
