The Plants started exploding in growth these last two weeks and now after their first 9 days of flower they added another 10-15cm in height. i defoliated bellw the two scrog nets to focus more energy on the tops . they look very healthy and i hope we will see some purple hints soon. so far they started to produce buds quite quick now and i can see notable differences everyday. The next weeks will bring beautiful buds.

Amazing old school strain. Cakes to the stem and oily to the touch. All buds are rock hard and freakin hand size. Taste is of harsh lemon while some are more haze. Both pheno tastes are great imo. This turned out great and would grow again in the future. If only trimming were easier with this one.

I am pretty excited. 🙂. They are coming along nicely. The ladies arms are getting more and more swollen every day. The stretch has stopped. I have done some more defoliation (can't keep my hands away from the damn scissors. Lol). I will update throughout the week. 😎

Was a bit stressfull week the plants on the left side of the pot seemed to be dehydrated, after i gave them water twice they recovered a lil bit. As you can see the plant in the middle is huge. I will take some clones of her to equalize the canopy eventually. Monday i will switch to 12/12 and i think i will take the clones next week and start an other diary for them aswell. Big pot s a bit problem with watering but i learn as the proces goes. They need a lot more water than im giving at the moment but im looking for a sweetspot. So for now im ordering an tensiometer and an fertometer so i can properly feed them in the flower period

4/22/25: last flush 2 tsp of sledgehammer with 1 gallon of water used 2 gallons between all three plants…more cool colors coming in with the fade 4/24/25: fed with recommended dosage for week 11 on my schedule card (day 31 of flower) 4/27/25: watered with plain ph water at 6.8

So those girls were transfered from main room, theirs veg story you'll find in Checkpoint diary by Sweet Seeds. In reality they veged for 5 weeks, beans didn't want to sprout, so planted two more. One from first two- didn't make it... Everything with them postponed a bit and i decided to try out other training method and new version/interpretation of FIMing. They got 30 hours of darkness, looked sad a bit, but just 3 hours under new sun - they are happy as f@ck again ;))) Will feed them later today with full range of BioBizz. Will update charts. Day 6. Girls loved food, no big stretch yet ... Happy Growing !!!

Harvest on day 91 of cycle , day 54 of flowering.. I could leave it few days more for sure however my ladt harvest is nearly finishing so I need to dry this plant as soon as possible hehehe.. Purple punch has really frosty buds, it didn’t grow as much as I wish(I had to move the plant to the toilet with my burple light as there was no space for 3 plants in my 2x4 tent) but they are looking insanely good, with a strong flavor of grape, I am impressed with this smell/flavour, all covered in trichomes, I can’t wait to smoke it.. So my way to harvest it is I cut it down on the main branch and hang to dry out.. all the plant .. I prefer dry trim because it’s way easier to trim.. so now I am gonna hang it for 2/3 weeks and then start trimming.. I will update yield and tasty as soon as I finish trimming.. Overall I am happy with the results 🙌🏼.

Umgetopft in 3,2L Sonnenerde Hanf mit ca. 5cm Blähton als Drainage. Ich habe diese Woche sowohl getaucht als auch von unten gegossen und werde es so beibehalten, dabei gieße ich immer kurz von oben an. Die Purple Lemonade, die etwa 1 Woche hinterher ist, habe ich trotzdem auch jetzt schon umgetopft. Die Beleuchtung wird auf ~23 DLI hochgefahren.

ok so everything has gone fantastic , no nutrient burns at all , and have been slowly creeping up the base nutrients , i have stopped the cal mag and now adding house and gardens bud XL at full strength these girls are now in full swing of flower and i bought a new ph stick this week , i have found when PHing the feed bucket that its best too have air stones in the bucket , add all nuts and then ph but do not use the feed that day as if you check the next day the ph is off again so i left it 24 hours after i add more ph down , and it seems too make the measurements alot easier and stable , i have bent down the main stems " without damaging them onto my netting too A keep the canopy all the same high so my lighting is covering all plants at the same distance and also it allowed the side stems too reach up too , i also was sponsored another new led light by kingbo this week so have added another 600watt led too the grow , so now have two 600's and one 900watt , and temps are still fine sitting at 24c lights on and 19-20 off , so am pleased with that , this lady is by far the bushyist plant with the most branches she also didn't stretch much and is packed with bud sites ,

Hi everyone...🍃🍃🍃On day 15 I added netting to be ready for top buds...🍃🍃🍃Everything is going well, just watch and water...🍃🍃🍃 Happy growing...🍃🍃🍃

Hey guys:) We‘re finally done with this grow, I‘m pretty happy with the results, but sadly I had one more problem I didn‘t realise until the end. Apparently the white truffle hermed and produced pollen. I think it was due to heat stress, I couldn‘t control the temperature this time around and it was constantly over 32c during the day. Didn‘t know that could stress them so much that they produce pollen… Anyways the white truffle is full of seeds, the other 3 seem to be less impacted with the blue zushi looking the best. Overall they produced much less than last time when I had the triploids, but in terms of trichome coverage and smell they seem superior this time around. I‘m looking forward to their full potential once curing is done. In terms of smell, the white truffle is definitely the most unique and my favorite of the bunch, so sad I messed them up, but that‘s how you learn:) On to the next run, this time I‘m going for sativa dominant strains:)

Trichomes are developing well, still mostly clear at the moment. The plant has finished stretching and is now focusing on bulking. I slightly increased her feed and hope she’ll put on more weight soon.

This week I found fungus gnats I added sticky boards and mosquito bits. A small amount of fading on oldest leaves. I did a small defoliation of the yellow fan leaves. I added bone meal to the top layer of soil and worked it in. Water at 6.5.

Hello guys ! Hope you are doing good ! New weeks and the girl is now totally focusing on her buds ! It's a very nice moment of the flowering, you are discovering every day the shape of the buds growing. You start to notice the smell everytime I open the door. Can't wait to see what's coming next. Take care Sawyer

Esta semana apesar de tener temp Máxima de 28... se va recuperando bien de las podas, el led de TodoGrowled funciona perfectamente para sus 55w farmers!🍁

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno B Week 9 | My Sister Has Her Own Story 🌿🔥 Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And once again, this room is reminding me why growing different phenotypes side by side is so fascinating. Because sometimes you can look at two plants and think: "These two are sisters." You can see the family resemblance. The general structure. The flowering behaviour. The way they develop. But then you look a little closer... And you realize: they are absolutely writing their own stories. Cash Express Pheno B is one of those girls. She's growing in the same room as her sister, under essentially the same conditions, with the same general feeding strategy, lighting philosophy and irrigation system. And yet... she has her own personality. She's beautiful. She's lush. She's developing an impressive flowering structure. And she's becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. So this week, let's put the spotlight where it belongs. On her. 🚂🌿🌸 🌱 Week 9 – She's Finding Her Shape Cash Express Pheno B has continued developing beautifully this week, reaching approximately 93 cm. And while height isn't everything, that number does tell us something interesting when we compare her with her sister. Pheno A has remained the smaller, more compact expression. Pheno B has taken a different route. She's taller. She's more extended through the structure. Her branches are distributed differently. And the flowering sites are developing along that architecture in their own unique way. But what's really interesting is that despite those differences... there is still a recognizable family resemblance. You look at her and know you're looking at Cash Express. But this is her version of Cash Express. And I absolutely love that. 🌿 Lush Green & Full of Life The first thing that catches my eye this week is her colour. She's green. Beautifully, deeply and consistently green. The foliage is looking lush and healthy, and the plant has that unmistakable appearance of a girl with plenty of energy left to put into flowering. This is one of those plants where you can almost feel the vigor when you're standing next to her. She's not looking tired. She's not looking like she's struggling. She's not trying to tell us that something is wrong. She's simply growing. And growing beautifully. That makes my job much easier. Instead of trying to fix something that isn't broken, I can simply observe, support and allow her to continue doing what she's already doing so well. 🌸 The Flowers Are Getting Serious And then we get to the real stars of the show. The flowers. Wow. The developing buds are becoming increasingly defined, and the pistils are absolutely beautiful. We're seeing those long, bright hairs emerging from the flowers in all directions. They're still predominantly fresh and light in colour, with some of the warmer tones we've been noticing in this phenotype. And the flower structures themselves are becoming much more substantial. This is no longer just a collection of early flowering sites. We're starting to see actual bud architecture developing. The individual flowers are beginning to connect and build their shape. There's still a long way to go before we see the finished product, of course. But this is exactly the stage where the potential starts becoming easier to appreciate. And Cash Express Pheno B is giving us plenty to look at. 🚂 Same Sister. Different Personality. This is probably the biggest story of this week's update. Pheno A and Pheno B are sisters. Same cultivar. Same room. Same basic environment. Same irrigation. Same overall nutrition. Same 12/12-from-seed approach. And yet... look at them. Pheno A has her own compact and efficient architecture. Pheno B has developed a different structure, with more height and a different distribution of flowering sites. Neither one is better. Neither one is worse. They're simply different. And that's the whole reason I'm documenting them separately. I don't want to reduce the story to: "Cash Express did well this week." I want to know how each phenotype does well. What does she naturally want to become? How does she build flowers? How does she use the available space? How does she respond to the same environment? What characteristics remain consistent between sisters? And what characteristics separate them? That's where the real fun is. ✂️ A Little Cleaning – Nothing Dramatic We've also continued doing a little selective cleaning around the room. And, as always, this isn't about following a calendar. There isn't a rule saying: "Week 9 = remove X amount of leaves." That's not how I want to grow this project. We're reading the plants. For Cash Express Pheno B, we've removed a few leaves here and there where they weren't contributing much anymore or where opening a little space made sense. Nothing aggressive. Nothing dramatic. We're not trying to strip this beautiful green girl. Quite the opposite. She has plenty of healthy foliage, and I want to keep it working for her. The objective is simply to maintain a sensible canopy, allow light and air to move through the plant, and keep the developing flowers visible and accessible. Sometimes a single leaf in exactly the wrong place can block an entire flowering site. Remove that one leaf? Perfect. Remove twenty more just because you're already holding the scissors? Not necessarily. 😂✂️ Selective beats automatic. 💨 Airflow Becomes More Important As these flowers continue developing, maintaining good airflow becomes increasingly important. We're now dealing with larger and denser flowering structures than we were a few weeks ago. That means I want to avoid unnecessary pockets of stagnant air inside the canopy. The small amount of selective cleaning helps open things up without compromising the plant's overall ability to photosynthesize. And because we're working with a room containing twelve different plants, keeping the canopy reasonably open also helps the environment itself. Better air movement. Better exchange around the foliage. Fewer overly crowded areas. And a little more breathing room for everybody. We're not trying to create a sterile environment. We're simply trying to give the plants the conditions they need to remain healthy while the flowers continue developing. 💡 Light From Above – And Inside One of the things I really enjoy about this particular setup is that we're not relying entirely on light from directly above. The main Future of Grow Black Series lighting provides the primary canopy intensity, while the additional inner and under-canopy lighting helps bring usable light into areas that would otherwise receive considerably less. And Cash Express Pheno B's structure makes that especially interesting. She's not a completely flat wall of foliage. Her branches occupy different levels and angles throughout the plant. That creates opportunities for light to reach different flowering sites. At the same time, we're still paying attention to canopy density and selectively opening areas where appropriate. It's a combination of lighting and plant architecture. And once again, the plant itself changes how the lighting system behaves. ⚗️ Feeding – Consistency Is the Name of the Game The nutrition programme remains unchanged this week. We're continuing with: Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Plagron Pure Zym – 1 ml/L pH adjustment as required Current solution: ⚗️ pH – approximately 6.0 ⚡ EC – approximately 2.0 mS/cm And this girl certainly doesn't look like she's complaining. That beautiful green colour, active flowering and continued development are all telling me that she's comfortable with the current strategy. So why change it? We don't need to keep adjusting things simply because we're moving through the calendar. She's responding. We're observing. And for now, stability wins. The plants get the final vote. 🌡️ Current Environment The room continues running with a stable flowering environment: 🌡️ Day temperature – 29°C 🌙 Night temperature – 25°C 💧 Relative humidity – 60% 🥥 Substrate temperature – 26°C 💦 Solution temperature – 25°C ⚗️ pH – ~6.0 ⚡ EC – ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂ – ~639 ppm 💡 Light schedule – 12/12 ? Pot size – 15 L 💧 Watering – approximately 1.3 L/plant/24h The interesting part is that the room conditions are shared across the plants, but their responses remain very individual. That's exactly what we wanted from this experiment. The environment gives us the baseline. The genetics provide the differences. 🔬 Reading the Plant Instead of Reading the Calendar One of the biggest lessons this run continues teaching me is that the calendar is useful... but the plant is more useful. Week numbers help us document development. They help us compare one update with another. But they don't tell us exactly what every plant needs on a particular day. Cash Express Pheno B doesn't care that another plant is ready for something. She doesn't care what Pheno A is doing. She has her own root system. Her own structure. Her own metabolism. Her own genetic expression. And that's what I'm trying to respect. If she needs a little cleaning, we clean. If she doesn't... we leave her alone. If she responds well to the current feeding... we keep it stable. If something changes... we adapt. Simple. 📸 Behind the Lens And once again, this girl is making my job behind the camera very easy. The close-ups show just how much the flowers have developed. Those pistils are becoming one of the most recognizable characteristics of this phenotype. Long. Bright. Abundant. Almost exploding from the developing flowers. Then you step back and see the whole plant... and the story changes again. Now you see the structure. The height. The branch distribution. The amount of flowering happening throughout the plant. And that beautiful green canopy surrounding everything. This is why I love documenting individual phenotypes. A wide photograph tells you what the plant looks like. A macro photograph starts telling you who she is. 🌿 My Little Jungle Is Getting Better Every Week And I have to say... I'm having so much fun with this run. Sometimes I walk into the room and genuinely feel like I'm stepping into my own little jungle. 😂🌿 I'm moving between plants. Checking underneath leaves. Looking at flowers. Looking at the structure. Taking photographs. Finding something new. Then moving to the next plant and discovering that she's doing something completely different. It's almost like visiting twelve little worlds inside one room. And that's probably one of the biggest reasons I'm enjoying this project so much. I'm learning constantly. I'm adapting constantly. And I'm getting better at understanding that sometimes the best thing a grower can do is simply slow down and observe. 🔮 Looking Ahead The next stage should become increasingly exciting. The foundation is there. The flowering sites are established. The plant is healthy. And now we want to see those flowers continue developing their size, density and character. Over the next week I'll be watching for: 🌸 Continued flower swelling ? Further pistil development 💎 Increasing resin production 🌿 Continued healthy foliage 💨 Good airflow through the canopy 📈 More definition and density in the flowers And most importantly... I'll continue letting her tell me what she needs. No unnecessary changes. No chasing numbers. No forcing her to become something she's not. Just observation, consistency and adaptation. 💭 Final Thoughts – Let This Sister Shine Cash Express Pheno B has reached a really beautiful point in her journey. She's standing around 93 cm. She's lush. She's green. She's flowering strongly. Her structure is becoming increasingly impressive. And her flowers are developing their own unmistakable character. She's similar to her sister. But she's not her sister. And that's what makes her special. When I look at the two Cash Express phenotypes together, I don't see competition. I see two different interpretations of the same genetic potential. One sister chose one path. This girl chose another. And I'm absolutely happy to let her walk that path. Because she's doing something beautiful. She deserves the spotlight. She deserves the camera. She deserves her own story. So let's give it to her. 🚂🌿🌸 Cash Express Pheno B is not trying to be anybody else. She's simply becoming herself. And honestly... that's exactly what I want to see. 🙏 Thank You As always, a huge thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Every week, this project becomes more interesting. Twelve cultivars. One shared environment. Different structures. Different colours. Different flowering patterns. Different personalities. And an incredible amount to learn. Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a place to document this journey, compare experiences and share what we're learning with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Cash Express genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore these different phenotypes side by side. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the plants throughout the adventure. Thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting helping power the room from above. Thank you to AutoPot for the irrigation system keeping the plants consistently supplied. And a special thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into the inner and lower canopy. And finally... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every conversation. Every person who stops by to look at the plants. It genuinely makes this journey more enjoyable. I'm learning. I'm experimenting. I'm adapting. And sometimes I'm walking around the tent feeling like Tarzan in his jungle. 😂🌿 But honestly? I'm loving every minute of it. And Cash Express Pheno B is giving me another very good reason to stop, look and appreciate what's happening in front of me. She's beautiful. She's healthy. She's developing beautifully. And she's writing her own story. So let's keep watching. Let's keep learning. And most importantly... let's let this beautiful sister shine. 🚂🌸🔥 Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿
