Ze heeft de buds best wel volume gegeven, ze ziet er weer gelukkig uit. Het heeft geholpen de bodem te bedekken met zand want ik zie geen vliegjes meer uit de grond kruipen. Laten we kijken hoe ze zich deze week ontwikkeld. Ik zal gedurende de week nog verse foto's updaten.
First ever grow!!
Week 3 = The Clown Show. I definitely transplanted too early into 14l pots. I also should have only started two seeds because this tiny tent is crowded now. I kinda freaked out when I saw what looked like nutrient deficiencies (calcium, potassium, I don't know) AND nutrient burn? I was so damn confused. I also realized not ph'ing was a dumb idea and quickly went out and bought a ph meter. I assumed since the tap water here is drinkable and not chlorinated, it's fine. But turns out it all comes from underground aquifers that are made of bedrock and every mineral that increases ph. I'm using lemon juice as my ph-down now and have figured that out pretty well. 1ml of it gets the water down to 6.0-6.3. Anyway, I spent the weekend in YouTube University trying to figure out what mistakes I made. More experienced growers, please feel free to comment with tips. Just don't be an asshole.
Pheno B Cash Express By Zamnesia
๐Ÿš‚ Cash Express โ€“ Pheno B Week 10 | Let This Beautiful Girl Shine ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’ก Welcome back to another week of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ And once again... Cash Express Pheno B is simply doing her thing. No drama. No complaints. No unnecessary changes. Just growing. Beautifully. At her own rhythm. And honestly, the more I look at this girl, the more I appreciate what she's becoming. She's still carrying that deep, lush green through her leaves, and the flowering sites are becoming increasingly defined. The buds are developing beautifully. The hairs are becoming more abundant. The structure is becoming easier to read. And she's starting to look like exactly what she has been telling us she wanted to become all along. A beautiful, vigorous Cash Express phenotype with a personality entirely her own. So this week... we're not here to reinvent her. We're here to appreciate her. We're here to look at what she's doing. And we're definitely going to give her the spotlight she deserves. ๐Ÿš‚๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ ๐ŸŒฑ Week 10 โ€“ Still Doing Her Thing Cash Express Pheno B is now around 93 cm tall. And compared with her sister, that difference continues to be one of the interesting parts of this diary. Pheno A has her own compact character. Pheno B chose a different route. She's taller. She's more extended. She's occupying her space differently. But what's really important is that she isn't simply getting taller for the sake of getting taller. She's building. She's developing. She's creating flowering structure throughout that architecture. And now, at Week 10, that structure is becoming increasingly beautiful. She's not rushing. She's not trying to keep up with anybody else in the room. She's simply continuing along her own path. And that's something I've learned to appreciate enormously during this adventure. The plant sets the rhythm. We observe. We support. And we let her show us what she's capable of. ๐ŸŒฟ That Deep, Lush Green One of the first things that catches my attention this week is the foliage. That deep, lush green is absolutely beautiful. There's something very satisfying about seeing a plant carrying that much healthy, vibrant foliage while simultaneously developing her flowers. The leaves aren't just background decoration. They're the working machinery of the plant. They're capturing light. They're processing photons. They're driving photosynthesis. And ultimately, they're helping provide the energy that supports everything we're seeing happen throughout the plant. So when I look at this beautiful green canopy, I'm not just seeing colour. I'm seeing a plant with an active photosynthetic engine. And Cash Express Pheno B is certainly keeping hers running. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’š ๐Ÿ’ก Photons โ€“ The Invisible Part of the Story This week I really want to spend some time talking about something we can't actually see. Photons. We can see the LEDs. We can see the leaves. We can see the flowers. But we can't see the individual photons moving through the room. And yet they're involved in almost everything we're documenting. Every day, the Future of Grow Black Series LEDs are creating our artificial sun. Photons leave those LEDs. They travel through the room. They reach the canopy. And when they encounter the leaves, that light becomes usable energy through photosynthesis. That's the invisible part of this entire story. When we're looking at Cash Express and admiring her green leaves, her developing flowers and her structure... we're really looking at the visible result of an enormous number of tiny interactions between the plant and the light. And that's pretty damn fascinating. ๐Ÿ’ก๐ŸŒฟ โ˜€๏ธ Future of Grow โ€“ Bringing the Sun Indoors The Future of Grow LEDs continue to provide the primary illumination for the room. And one of the things I love about this 8ร—8 experiment is that we're putting twelve very different plants underneath the same artificial sun. The photons don't know which plant they're hitting. ๐Ÿ˜‚ They simply arrive. The genetics decide what happens next. And that's where things become interesting. One phenotype stretches. Another stays compact. One builds a certain flower structure. Another develops differently. One plant seems to want to occupy every available centimetre. Another is perfectly happy taking her time. Same room. Same photons. Different answers. Cash Express Pheno B has clearly chosen her own answer. And I'm very happy with what she's showing us. ๐Ÿ’ก Photons Don't Only Belong to the Top Canopy There's another part of the lighting strategy that becomes increasingly interesting as the plants develop. A flowering plant is a three-dimensional object. It's not just a flat canopy underneath a lamp. There are leaves and flowers at different heights. There are branches running through different levels. There are inner areas. Outer areas. Upper areas. Lower areas. And that's where our Lumiflora lighting becomes particularly valuable. We're bringing additional light into parts of the canopy that naturally don't receive the same exposure as the uppermost leaves. So we're not thinking only about: "How much light is hitting the top?" We're also thinking about: "Where else can useful photons go?" And that's a fascinating way to look at the room. Light is moving through the garden. Leaves are intercepting it. Some photons are absorbed. Some pass deeper into the canopy. Some reach lower foliage and flowers. And the entire structure becomes a constantly changing landscape of light. That's why canopy architecture matters so much. We're not just growing plants. We're managing a three-dimensional relationship between plants, photons and space. ๐Ÿ’ก๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ ๐ŸŒธ The Buds Are Starting to Tell Their Story And then... of course... we get to the flowers. This is where Cash Express Pheno B is really becoming beautiful. The buds are developing a much more recognizable structure now. Those hairs are becoming increasingly obvious. They're emerging from the flowers in abundance, giving the buds that beautiful textured appearance. And the more I look at the photographs, the more I can see the flower formation becoming defined. We're moving further away from those early flowering points and increasingly toward recognizable bud structures. There's still plenty of development ahead. But we're getting there. Slowly. Beautifully. And very much in her own style. ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ ? Those Beautiful Hairs I have to give the pistils their own little moment this week. Because they're beautiful. The amount of fresh hairs developing throughout the flowers really catches the eye. And this is one of those characteristics that makes photographing her so enjoyable. You can see them from a distance. But get the camera closer... and suddenly there's a completely different level of detail. Little hairs emerging from the developing flowers. Individual structures becoming more defined. The flowers becoming more substantial underneath them. It's one of those moments where you realize: She's actually building something here. And she's doing it beautifully. ๐ŸŒฟ No Need to Fight Her Personality This girl has already told us who she is. She's vigorous. She's lush. She's taller than her sister. She's developing a different architecture. And she's moving at her own pace. So why would I try to make her something else? That's one of the lessons I keep coming back to throughout this project. Growing isn't always about imposing a plan on the plant. Sometimes it's about creating a good framework... and then listening. Cash Express Pheno B doesn't need to become Pheno A. She doesn't need to match another plant. She doesn't need to develop according to somebody else's timeline. She's writing her own story. And I'm here to document it. ๐Ÿ“ธ๐ŸŒฟ ๐Ÿ’จ The Environment โ€“ Keeping Things Steady We're continuing to keep the room as stable as possible. Current conditions are approximately: ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature: 29.9ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature: 25ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง RH: 60% โš—๏ธ pH: 6.0 โšก EC: ~2.0 mS/cm ๐Ÿ’จ COโ‚‚: ~639 ppm ๐Ÿ’ฆ Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Solution temperature: 25ยฐC ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Substrate temperature: 26ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L ๐Ÿ“ Height: ~93 cm Summer continues to make temperature management interesting. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜€๏ธ One day wants to be warmer. The next wants to be slightly cooler. But we're doing our best to keep the important parameters consistent and, most importantly, avoid unnecessary fluctuations. We're not chasing perfection. We're chasing stability. And the plants seem quite happy with that approach. โš—๏ธ Nutrition โ€“ Keep Doing What Works The nutritional programme remains essentially unchanged. We're continuing with: Plagron Terra Bloom โ€“ 2.2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds โ€“ 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal โ€“ 1 ml/L Plagron Pure Zym โ€“ 1 ml/L pH adjustment as required The solution remains around pH 6.0 and approximately 2.0 mS/cm EC. And again... why complicate something that isn't asking to be complicated? She's green. She's developing. She's flowering. She's progressing. So we're allowing consistency to remain one of our biggest tools. ๐ŸŒธ Growing Beautifully at Her Own Rhythm I think this is probably the phrase that best describes Cash Express Pheno B right now. Her own rhythm. She's not necessarily trying to be the fastest plant in the room. She's not trying to finish before everyone else. She's simply continuing to develop. And that makes the comparison between the twelve plants even more interesting. Because if every plant behaved identically, there wouldn't be much of a phenotype story to tell. Instead, we have twelve personalities. Twelve structures. Twelve relationships with the same environment. And twelve different ways of turning photons into plants. That's the real adventure. ๐Ÿ“ธ Behind the Lens โ€“ More to Discover Every Week The photographs this week really reward getting close. The wide shots show her overall structure. The canopy. The height. The distribution of flowering sites. But the close-ups tell another story. The hairs. The developing flower structure. The textures. The tiny details that become increasingly obvious as flowering progresses. This is why I love documenting the plants individually. A photograph doesn't just preserve what happened. When you build a series over many weeks, it becomes a visual timeline. You can look backward and see exactly how far the plant has travelled. And Cash Express Pheno B has certainly travelled a long way. ๐Ÿ’ก The Garden Is Basically a Photon Playground One of the things I find fascinating about the 8ร—8 room is that we're essentially creating a little controlled ecosystem where light is constantly moving through the garden. The Future of Grow LEDs provide the main source. Lumiflora adds another dimension. The leaves intercept photons. The canopy changes. The plants grow into the available space. And as they grow, they change the way the light moves. So the lighting environment isn't completely static. The plants themselves become part of the lighting system. A leaf can intercept light that would otherwise reach a flower. Another leaf may reflect or transmit some light deeper into the canopy. A branch can change the shadow underneath it. And then we have additional lighting helping illuminate some of those less-exposed areas. It's a constantly evolving relationship. And that's one of the reasons I'm enjoying documenting this run so much. We're not just watching plants grow. We're watching an entire environment evolve with them. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’ก๐ŸŒธ ๐Ÿ”ฎ Looking Ahead For now, the plan remains beautifully simple. Keep observing. Keep the environment steady. Keep the irrigation consistent. Keep nutrition consistent. Keep the photons coming. And let Cash Express Pheno B continue doing what she does. Over the next week, I'll be watching: ๐ŸŒธ Continued bud formation ? Further pistil development ๐Ÿ’Ž Increasing resin production ๐ŸŒฟ Healthy, lush foliage ๐Ÿ’ก How the developing canopy interacts with the light ๐Ÿ’จ Good airflow throughout the structure ๐Ÿ“ˆ Increasing flower density and definition No need to force anything. She's already on her way. ๐Ÿ’ญ Final Thoughts โ€“ Let's Give Her the Spotlight Cash Express Pheno B is becoming one of those plants that gets more interesting every time I look at her. She's tall. She's lush. She's carrying that beautiful deep green. Her buds are developing. Her hairs are becoming beautifully defined. And her structure is increasingly telling us exactly what kind of phenotype she is. She's different from her sister. She's different from the other girls. And that's exactly why she deserves her own diary. The photons are doing their part. The Future of Grow LEDs are providing the artificial sun. Lumiflora is helping us bring that light deeper into the canopy. The environment is being kept as stable as summer allows. The nutrition remains consistent. And Cash Express? She's taking everything we've given her... and turning it into her story. Slowly. Beautifully. Naturally. And I wouldn't change that. So this week, there's no dramatic intervention. No big announcement. No attempt to force her into another shape. Just appreciation. Because sometimes the best thing you can do for a beautiful plant is simply step back... look at her... and say: "Keep doing exactly what you're doing." ๐Ÿš‚๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ”ฅ Cash Express Pheno B... this spotlight is yours. Let's keep those photons flying. Let's keep watching those flowers develop. And let's see where your own little story takes us next. ๐Ÿ™ Thank You As always, a huge thank you to everyone following the 8ร—8 Adventure. Thank you to Zamnesia for giving us the opportunity to explore these genetics and, most importantly, to see just how differently individual phenotypes can express themselves. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden with the growing media and nutrition throughout this journey. Thank you to Future of Grow for providing the Black Series LEDs powering our artificial sun and filling this room with the photons these girls need to do their thing. ๐Ÿ’ก๐ŸŒฑ And a special thank you to Lumiflora for helping us bring additional light into the inner and lower parts of the canopy and allowing us to explore just how much more interesting lighting becomes when we stop thinking only about the top of the plant. And of course... thank you to everyone following along on GrowDiaries. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person stopping by to see how the girls are doing. You're all part of this adventure. Twelve plants. One room. One environment. One artificial sun. And twelve completely different stories. And this particular story? It's Cash Express Pheno B. She's beautiful. She's lush. She's developing. She's doing it her own way. So let's give her what she deserves. The spotlight. ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’ก Until next week... Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š See you next week in the 8ร—8 jungle. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿš‚๐Ÿ”ฅ

4th week of vegetation was all about maintenance and evening out the canopy. each plant grows differently, so i had to place two of them on boxes to match the height. the one in the back is growing the fastest without any support. i managed to get them all more or less to the same level this week. tomorrow at 06:00 i am turning off the light and switching to 12/12 for flowering. ฤtvrtรฝ tรฝden vegetace jsem hlavnฤ› hlรญdal a snaลพil se vyrovnat vrลกky, aby byly ve stejnรฉ vรฝลกce. kaลพdรก kytka mi roste jinak, takลพe mรกm dvฤ› podloลพenรฉ krabicemi a ta vzadu roste sama bez podloลพenรญ. tento tรฝden se mi to podaล™ilo dรกt vรญcemรฉnฤ› do roviny. zรญtra v 06:00 vypรญnรกm svฤ›tlo a pล™epรญnรกm na kvฤ›t 12/12.

Hello people. The first two plants are completely dried, and the smoke is amazing, I made some butter and olive oil extraction using the trims, which are around 160 milligrams of THC in each gram of the trims! AMAZING! The next one will be the Cannabonsai, it is amazing as well, a beautiful lady! I am planning the harvest in two more weeks, I will wait until the last trichomes get brow! Thank you all for the support, you all are amazing people! :-)

Purple Haze By Zamnesia Pheno A
๐Ÿ’œ Purple Haze by Zamnesia โ€“ Pheno A Week 11 | This Girl Really Is on Fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ Welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š Okay... I'm going to say it again. This girl is moving. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ And not just moving... she's MOVING. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Every time I look at Purple Haze Pheno A, I get the feeling that she's quietly decided: "Alright, enough waiting. Let's get this show on the road." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ‘‘ Now, before anybody gets too excited... let's make something very clear. She is still FAR, FAR from the end. We're not calling her finished. We're not calling her close to harvest. We're not making any predictions about where this ends. But... when I compare her with where she was just one week ago? The difference is there. The flower development is progressing. The stacking is becoming more obvious. The buds are gaining presence. The resin is becoming increasingly visible. And the whole plant is simply moving at her own very impressive rhythm. Fast. Very fast. So this week... let's turn the spotlight up. Because Purple Haze Pheno A has absolutely earned it. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ‘‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฅ THIS GIRL IS REALLY ON FIRE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Last week I said: "This girl is on fire." I'm not taking it back. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ If anything... I need to turn the volume up. Because this week she has continued exactly where she left off. And that's what makes the progression so interesting. We're not looking at a plant that suddenly changed overnight. We're looking at a plant that is consistently moving forward... and doing it quickly. Week after week. Flower after flower. Layer after layer. She's building. She's stacking. She's developing. And when you look at her now, you can really see that momentum. There's a difference between a plant simply being in flower... and a plant that looks like it's actively building its flowering structure. Purple Haze Pheno A is definitely giving me the second feeling. She's working. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ THE FLOWERS ARE MOVING โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This is the part that's catching my attention the most. The flowers are becoming increasingly defined. They're developing more structure. They're beginning to look fuller. And those flowering sites are no longer simply little points scattered through the plant. They're becoming increasingly obvious parts of the overall architecture. And when I compare her with the previous update... I can see the progression. That's what I love about keeping these weekly diaries. Sometimes you think: "Nothing dramatic happened this week." Then you put last week's photograph beside this week's... and suddenly: "Oh..." ๐Ÿ˜‚ Actually... quite a lot happened. The plant simply did it gradually. And Purple Haze Pheno A is becoming one of those girls where the week-to-week comparison is particularly satisfying. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’Ž THE FROST IS KEEPING UP โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ And then we have the trichomes. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž The frost continues to become more noticeable as the flowers develop. This is another part of her evolution that makes me want to grab the camera. Because once the flowers start developing that little sparkle... you know you're entering one of the most visually rewarding parts of the journey. You look at her from across the room and see flowers. You move closer and see frost. You move even closer... and suddenly you're looking at an entire microscopic landscape. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฌ๐Ÿ’Ž That's what makes macro photography so addictive. And this girl? She's giving us plenty to photograph. The resin isn't the whole story. But it's certainly becoming a very beautiful part of it. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’œ THE COLOUR STILL SPEAKS FOR ITSELF โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ And of course... I can't talk about Purple Haze without mentioning her colour. That deep green remains one of the strongest visual characteristics of this phenotype. The foliage continues to give her that rich appearance, while the developing flowers create beautiful contrast throughout the plant. She's got a very distinctive look. You can see her structure. You can see the flower development. You can see the resin. And you can see that beautiful green. Everything is starting to come together. And I think that's why she's becoming so easy to recognize. She's developing her own signature. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿš€ HER RHYTHM IS FAST โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This is really the theme of this week's report. Her rhythm. Because I don't want to say that she's "ahead" of every other plant. That's not what this is about. Plants don't have to race each other. And we're still very far from the finish line. But compared with her own previous development? She's moving quickly. That's the important part. We're watching HER progression. And her progression is fast. She's not sitting there waiting. She's not slowly wondering whether she wants to flower. She's clearly in the process of building. And she appears to be doing it with a lot of momentum. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ It's almost like somebody pressed the fast-forward button. But I'm pretty sure nobody did. She's simply being Purple Haze Pheno A. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ก SAME PHOTONS โ€“ DIFFERENT RESPONSE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ And this is where the 8ร—8 Adventure becomes really interesting. Because nothing special was created for this girl. She's still in the same room. Same environment. Same general irrigation strategy. Same nutrition foundation. Same lighting system. Same 12/12 schedule. Same overall conditions. And yet... she's expressing herself differently. That's genetics. The room provides the environment. The plant interprets it. And Purple Haze Pheno A seems to be saying: "Thank you very much. I'll take all those photons and get to work." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’œ And that's exactly what we're watching. The same light enters the room. Different plants respond differently. Some build differently. Some stretch differently. Some flower differently. Some take longer. Some move faster. And this girl? She's definitely one of the faster-moving personalities in this room. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ˜€๏ธ MORE PHOTONS โ€“ MORE CAPABILITY โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The lighting setup remains the upgraded system we've been using throughout the room. The two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures are now part of the lighting environment. We initially had more available intensity than we wanted to run, so we reduced the output. We're now around: ๐Ÿ’ก ~59% power from the plug with approximately: โ˜€๏ธ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy and naturally decreasing intensity depending on plant height and position. And I really like this approach. We're not trying to run the fixtures flat out. We're creating lighting capacity. Then we're controlling it. That gives us flexibility without unnecessarily pushing the equipment or using more electricity simply because we can. And Purple Haze? She's certainly making use of what she's receiving. ๐Ÿ’ก๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’œ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ A THREE-DIMENSIONAL PHOTON CATCHER โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ When you look closely at her structure, you can really appreciate how three-dimensional the canopy is. Leaves occupy different heights. Branches move through different spaces. Flowers develop at different angles. And photons interact with all of it. Some are intercepted immediately. Some travel deeper. Some reach lower areas. Some pass through gaps. And the additional Lumiflora lighting helps bring useful illumination into those deeper and lower areas. It's not simply: "Put more light on the top." It's about understanding that a plant is not a flat surface. It's a living, three-dimensional structure. And Purple Haze Pheno A has created a beautiful structure for those photons to interact with. โ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ STACKING โ€“ AND THEN MORE STACKING โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ I think this deserves its own section. Because... wow. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ The stacking continues to become more obvious. The flowers are building on one another. The structures are becoming more substantial. And the overall appearance is becoming increasingly dense. This is the kind of progression where you can look at the plant and almost see the architecture changing in front of you. One flower develops. Then another. Then the surrounding structures become more pronounced. And suddenly the whole branch starts looking different. That's what we're watching now. Not the final product. Not the finish line. Just the plant building. Layer by layer. Week by week. And she's doing it beautifully. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ STILL COMPACT โ€“ STILL MAKING HER SPACE COUNT โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ At around 120 cm, she's not one of the tallest girls in the room. And honestly? She doesn't need to be. She's making excellent use of the space she has. She's not trying to win the height competition. She's building within her own architecture. That's something I really appreciate about her. She's compact enough to maintain that substantial flowering structure while still having plenty of space for the flowers to develop. She doesn't need another 30 centimetres of height to make an impression. She already has one. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โš—๏ธ FEEDING โ€“ SAME ROOM, SAME FOUNDATION โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The nutritional update is the same as the rest of the room this week. ๐ŸŒฑ Plagron Terra Bloom โ€“ 2.3 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Power Buds โ€“ 1 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Green Sensation โ€“ 1 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Sugar Royal โ€“ 1 ml/L โš—๏ธ pH adjusted as required Current solution values are approximately: โš—๏ธ pH โ€“ 6.02 โšก EC โ€“ ~2.14 mS/cm Again, we're not creating a special feeding programme just because she's moving quickly. We're watching the plant. We're watching her development. We're keeping the room consistent. And she's responding beautifully. The important thing is that we're not confusing "fast development" with "rush everything." ๐Ÿ˜‚ She's moving at her own pace. We're simply supporting the environment around her. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒก๏ธ WEEK 11 ROOM CONDITIONS โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The room remains stable around: ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature: ~26.5ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature: ~26ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง RH: ~61% โš—๏ธ pH: ~6.02 โšก EC: ~2.14 mS/cm ๐Ÿ’ฆ Nutrient solution: ~25ยฐC ๐ŸŒฑ Substrate temperature: ~25ยฐC ๐Ÿ’จ COโ‚‚: ~693 ppm ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule: 12/12 ?

Fast compared with her own previous progression... doesn't mean we're suddenly at the end. We're not. Not even close. ๐Ÿ˜‚ There is still plenty of flowering development ahead. The flowers can continue building. The resin can continue developing. The structure can continue changing. And the plant can continue maturing. So I'm not looking at her thinking: "She's almost finished." I'm looking at her thinking: "Wow... look how quickly she's progressing." There's a big difference. And that's the exciting part. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ THE CAMERA HAS A LOT TO WATCH โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This is exactly the stage where I want to keep photographing her. Because when a plant is moving quickly, the weekly photographs become even more valuable. They create a visual timeline. Week 9. Week 10. Week 11. And suddenly you can see the story. The flowers become larger. The structures become denser. The frost becomes more obvious. The plant starts looking more mature. And you can actually watch the transformation. That's what these diaries are about. Not just showing you a beautiful plant... but showing you how she became that plant. And Purple Haze Pheno A is giving us a beautiful story to document. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ THE CROWN IS GETTING HOT โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ I'm starting to feel like we need a larger crown budget in this room. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘ Every week another girl walks into the spotlight. And now Purple Haze is basically standing there with flames coming out of her flowers. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ˜‚ But again... I'm not declaring any winners. Every phenotype has something special. That's the whole point. One plant might have incredible structure. Another might have incredible colour. Another might have unusual flower formation. Another might have an amazing aroma. Another might be incredibly compact. And Purple Haze Pheno A? She's giving us: ๐Ÿ’œ Beautiful colour ๐ŸŒธ Strong flower development ๐Ÿ”ฅ Fast progression ๐Ÿ’Ž Increasing resin ๐ŸŒฟ Compact structure ๐Ÿ‘‘ Serious personality That's a pretty strong combination. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ” WHAT I'M WATCHING NOW โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ My questions for her have changed again. I'm no longer asking: "Is she going to flower?" She's answered that. I'm not asking: "Is she developing?" She's answered that too. Now I'm watching: ๐ŸŒธ How much more will these flowers build? ๐Ÿ’Ž How much more resin will she develop? ๐ŸŒฟ How much denser will the structure become? ๐Ÿ’œ How will her colour evolve? ๐Ÿ”ฅ And how long can she keep this pace? That's the fun part. We don't know. And I'm perfectly happy with that. Because the plant gets to answer those questions for us. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ญ FINAL THOUGHTS โ€“ KEEP THE FIRE BURNING โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Week 11. And Purple Haze Pheno A? Still on fire. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ If anything... even more so. Compared with the previous update, this girl is clearly moving at her own rhythm. And that rhythm is fast. The flowers are becoming more substantial. The stacking is becoming more obvious. The resin is becoming increasingly visible. The colour remains beautiful. The plant is maintaining that compact, balanced structure. And everything is starting to come together. But we're still far from the end. That's important. This isn't a finish-line report. It's a progress report. And what a progress report it is. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ Same room. Same environment. Same photons. Same lighting strategy. Same nutrition. Same 12/12. Different genetic response. That's the magic. The room gives her the tools. Purple Haze Pheno A decides what to build with them. And right now... she's building something beautiful. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ”ฅ So let's give her the shout she deserves. Let's turn up the spotlight. Let's keep those photons flying. Let's keep the camera ready. And let's watch this girl continue to do what she clearly wants to do. Move. Build. Stack. Frost. Grow. And shine. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ She's still got a long road ahead. But if this is the pace she's choosing... I'm very excited to watch the rest of the journey unfold. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ™ THANK YOU โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share the experience with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Purple Haze genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover what this beautiful phenotype can become.

Every person stopping by to watch the girls develop. It genuinely means a lot. ๐Ÿ’š This 8ร—8 Adventure keeps showing us the same thing over and over again: Give different genetics a shared environment... and they will tell you very different stories. And Purple Haze Pheno A? Her story right now is moving fast. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ She's not finished. She's not even close. But she's building. She's stacking. She's frosting. She's developing. And she's doing it at her own very impressive rhythm. So... let the girl shine. ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ Let's see how much more she can build. Let's see how the flowers continue to evolve. And let's keep watching this beautiful girl burn her way through another week of the 8ร—8 Adventure. Growers Love, my friends. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ And remember... don't blink. Purple Haze Pheno A is moving. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘

Day 57: Girls looking good and healthy. Got the HLG turned up 100% pumping 500 watt to em! We shall see. Still only given around 500ppm nutes. Day 58: Got mostly cloudy with just a couple amber it looks like. I'm thinking I need to start flushing. Albeit, only on one plant. I will wait a few days more until I make a decision. Day 59: Still looking beautiful! Buds are getting thicker! Decided I will give MOAB till week 10 and check the tric's at that time. Prob start flushing at that time. Only time will tell. Day 60: Girls looking good. ๐Ÿ‘Š Not gonna lie, getting nervous as I do not want to cut em too soon or too late. This is a tough spot. The one has a ton of red hairs. It looked as if there was just a couple of amber that I found the other day. I was looking on the outside of the buds, also. So I know the inside is where I need to look. Just not wanting to jack with them too much. I will check again at end of week. Day 61: Busy. No updates. Day 62: These girls are starting to smell amazing!! I don't see any noticeable growth here lately. I'm hoping they start to bulk even more though as I think I am still seeing some clear trichomes. Day 63: Welp, all is well and no new updates. I been feeding pretty heavy so I will back off and just water tomorrow.

Did some low stress training on the GC again. My Clone rooted and received a 15 L autopot, flipping to flower next week on the 3th to 4th June once the clone has some decent rooting, Reservoir running with 3.0 EC and PH 5.9. Plan for the next days: Dryback into irrigation Phase before i switch to flower next week in order to prevent salt buildups and a fair usage of already applied nutrients from the Reservoir.

Jun 10: Watered less than half gallon of Ph 6.7 water. Jun 12: That watering really gave a growth spurt! Bumping the humidity up to a max of 81% til early flower. Jun 13: Plant is tall enough to tie down the main stem to the side. Once the other stems get longer, I'll tie them down to the rim of the bucket as well, to maximize light exposure. Jun 15: Buckets are getting lighter, but the soil is moist, meaning my humidity was too high. That lead to some mold and algae that I will treat with spray Neem oil. Smells terrible, but should do the trick. Lowering humidity to 65% for a bit, then will probably get closer to 75% over the next few days. Decided to top, since the plant is getting big enough to support it!
