Hello there and welcome to week 12, or the beginning of it anyway. Week 11 is now complete so please check that out! We start the week with 5l fertigation and some nice photos. Now that Bertha is gone the tent smells Karenish. See you tomorrow! Day 78: Added several more carnivorous plants to the budding collection. Enjoy! Day 79: Fertigated 5l. She's starting to mature now. Frost developing slower, buds fattening and ripening faster. Were maybe two weeks away here. Night 80: Added tent photo and vid. Day 81 update later today. Day 81: Added a lot of media. Got a cheap digital microscope to try and get better micro shots. As you can see Karen is nowhere near yet. Day 82: Things are moving very fast, just look at the difference today. I am certain were with 2 weeks of harvest. Does anyone have advice on flushing/not watering. Fertigated 5l. Day 83: At the current rate of maturation I think the end of next week maybe be harvest time. Height 51cm Day 84: Karens smell is really strong now it washes across your face when you open the tent. End of week summary: A full week of nothing but bud swelling and maturation. I still think she needs another 2 weeks. Unfortunately my living situation has rather abruptly changed and now I have a tough choice to make: harvest/destroy or move plants. There is a strong chance I will chop Karen at the end of next week if she is ready or not.

Our most infamous strain with the stickiest buds in the game. A knockout artist who boasts a staggering 24% THC. Very big and potent. The โ€œglueโ€ comes from so much resin, that your fingers will literally be stuck together while trimming. A large-sized plant that only needs around 9 weeks to reward growers with big enormous sticky fat buds, that any type of grower will fall in love with. Super easy to grow and her pine and diesel terp profile will impress even the most experienced cannabis connoisseur. She is well suited for beginner growers and hash makers should not miss out on this trichome queen. Bud descriptionGorilla Glue Autoโ€™s buds will be chunky and dense, with a heavy resin production that causes your fingers to stick together like super glue. The buds are dark green, with swollen pointy calyx that swell wrapped in bright orange hairs. A truly impressive amount of trichomes that would make excellent cup winning extracts hands down.Smoke reportShe is one for smokers with the highest tolerances and fans of powerful hybrids. Gorilla Glue Auto is extremely potent and her effects are not for the light-hearted. Not only will she glue you to the nearest armchair, your eyes and face will slowly feel the force of her physical effects while you enjoy a nice head high that will keep you deeply motivated and energized. Certainly a perfect choice for staying at home and lounging out with friends or relieving stress and pain while maintaining an uplifted spirit that allows you to continue with your day-to-day chores.Plant AppearanceThis lady likes to stay low and will usually grow to a height of 60-130cm, making her ideal for keeping out of sight. She does not require much maintenance and will reward you with massive yields of up to 450-600gr/m2. Her growth structure is short and bushy, thanks to her sativa dominance, and will grow one main central cola, with fat side branches all around. Once flowering starts, expect Gorilla Glue Auto to fill out thick and fast, as she begins to pack on size, weight and go crazy with the trichome output. From seed to harvest she is ready in 9-10 weeks, where she will finish with a short and fat appearance.

๐Ÿฎ 8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Week 13 ๐ŸŒธ Chem Brรปlรฉe โ€“ Pheno A ๐Ÿ”ฅ The Wild Girl Is Rushing Toward The Finish Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And here she is again... Our Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno A. But honestly... I think we're going to have to stop calling her just "Chem Brรปlรฉe." Because this girl has become a little beast. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿฎ She's wild. She's moving fast. She's developing quickly. She's changing visibly. And now... she's starting to look like a plant that's very seriously thinking about the final chapter. The flowers are getting bigger. The main cola is absolutely huge. The hairs are changing. The leaves are beginning to fade. And the entire plant is giving us that unmistakable feeling: "Okay... we're getting close now." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’š This girl isn't hanging around. She's moving. Fast. And I absolutely love watching it. So this week, we're going to give this beast the spotlight she deserves. Let's make her shine. ๐Ÿฎโ„๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐ŸŒธ 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 The Beast Is Awake Let's start with the obvious. This girl is moving. And she's moving fast. Last week we were already talking about her entering the final chapter. This week? She's making that chapter much easier to see. The plant is changing. The flowers are becoming increasingly mature. The pistils are changing colour. The foliage is beginning to fade. And the overall structure is starting to look like she's preparing herself for the final stretch. She's not slowing down. She's not sitting there waiting for us. She's doing what she does. Growing. Building. Maturing. And apparently... trying to finish the story before some of her neighbours even get to the interesting part. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ”ฅ Fair enough, girl. We're watching. 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 That Main Cola... WOW Okay. We have to talk about this. Because the main cola on this girl is HUGE. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐ŸŒธ Seriously. It's one of those flowers where you look at the plant and immediately your eyes go straight toward it. It's massive. It's substantial. It's beautifully developed. And now that the plant is starting to mature around it, that main cola becomes even more impressive. The structure is there. The density is there. The flower is there. And she's still hanging in there beautifully. No drama. No complaints. Just one enormous Chem Brรปlรฉe flower sitting there saying: "Yeah... I built this." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ’š And honestly? She has every right to be proud 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”€ ๐ŸŒฟ She's Starting To Fade Another big change this week is the foliage. She's starting to fade. And in the context of everything else we're seeing, that makes perfect sense. The plant is moving further into maturity. The flowers are developing. The pistils are changing. The overall appearance is shifting. And now we're beginning to see the leaves changing along with the rest of the plant. This is one of those moments where you really appreciate having weekly photographs. Because the transition isn't always dramatic from one day to the next. But compare the plant with where she was a few weeks ago... and suddenly you realize: "Oh damn. She's really moving." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’š The beautiful green we were looking at earlier is now gradually giving way to the colours of a plant approaching the end of her journey. And I'm enjoying watching every 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”€ ? The Hairs Are Changing And the pistils are joining the conversation. We're seeing more and more colour coming through those beautiful flowers. The fresh white hairs from earlier stages are gradually being replaced by more mature-looking tones. Cream. Yellow. Orange. Brown. And increasingly curled-in pistils. ?๐ŸŒธ Again, we're not using pistil colour alone to decide anything. The plant is the complete picture. But when you combine those changing hairs with: ๐ŸŒธ Bigger flowers โ„๏ธ Increasing resin ๐ŸŒฟ Fading foliage ๐Ÿ”ฅ Mature-looking structures ๐Ÿฎ Overall progression ...the message becomes pretty clear. She's moving toward the finish. And she's doing it quickly. 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 The Frost Is Still There Of course... we can't talk about Chem Brรปlรฉe without talking about the frost. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ„๏ธ Because even while the plant is changing and beginning to fade, the flowers are still looking beautiful under the camera. That resin continues to give her that sparkling character. Move closer... and you see it. The sugar leaves. The flower surfaces. The little details. The texture. The resin. All those tiny details that disappear when you're standing across the room. And this is why I love taking her into the studio. The full plant tells us the story. The close-ups tell us the details. And together... they show us exactly how far this girl has come. 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ฎ Same Girl โ€” Completely Herself One thing I really appreciate about Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno A is that she never needed to become the biggest or most spectacular plant in the room to be interesting. She has simply been herself. And now we're seeing exactly what that means. She's wild. She's fast. She's got a huge main cola. She's developing beautiful flowers. She's changing colour. She's fading. She's getting closer. And she's doing all of it in her own way. That's what phenotype hunting is about. We're not asking: "Can we make every plant look the same?" We're asking: "What does THIS plant do?" And Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno A has answered that question very clearly. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ”ฅ She does whatever the hell she wants. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฑ The 8ร—8 Adventure โ€” Same Room, Different Stories For anyone discovering this diary for the first time... welcome to the 8ร—8 Adventure. Twelve plants. Different genetics. Different phenotypes. One shared room. One general environmental strategy. One 12/12 lighting schedule. One irrigation philosophy. One nutritional program. One lighting ecosystem. One grower. And twelve completely different expressions. That's the magic. Because look at Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno A. She's moving fast. She's fading. She's changing her pistils. She's carrying a huge main cola. And she's approaching the final stage. Meanwhile, somewhere else in the room, another phenotype may be doing something completely different. Same room. Same photons. Same ecosystem. Different genetics. Different personality. Different timeline. And that's exactly what we came here to discover. 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 Still Under The Same Artificial Sun The lighting setup remains exactly the same across the room. Our Future of Grow Black Series LEDs continue providing the artificial sun. The two additional Black Series 600W fixtures remain part of the setup. And we're still controlling the output rather than simply running everything flat out. ๐Ÿ”Œ Approximately 59% from the plug with around: โ˜€๏ธ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy The intensity naturally changes throughout the canopy depending on plant height and position. And Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno A? She's making damn good use of those photons. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ”ฅ She's taking that light and turning it into flowers. A lot of flowers. And one hell of a main cola. 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 Same Photons โ€” Different Interpretation This is still one of my favourite parts of the entire 8ร—8 Adventure. We give them the same opportunity. The plants decide what to do with it. Some stretch. Some stay compact. Some build huge branches. Some build dense flowers. Some take their time. Some move incredibly fast. And Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno A? She's basically saying: "Thank you for the photons. I'll turn them into a monster cola." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ”ฅ And honestly... I'm not complaining. A huge thank you once again to Future of Grow for supplying the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures for this experiment. Having more lighting capability while being able to control the actual output has been a fascinating part of watching these different phenotypes develop. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฑ Same Feeding โ€” But We May Be Near The End The nutritional program remains consistent with the rest of the room for now. Current recipe: ๐ŸŒฑ Plagron Pure Zym โ€” 1 ml/L โš—๏ธ Plagron pH Plus โ€” 0.03 ml/L ๐Ÿ‹ Plagron Lemon Kick โ€” 0.03 ml/L ๐ŸŒธ Plagron Terra Bloom โ€” 2 ml/L ๐ŸŒฟ Plagron Power Buds โ€” 1 ml/L ๐Ÿฏ Plagron Sugar Royal โ€” 1 ml/L Current solution strength: โšก EC ~2.05 mS/cm But... I think we're getting very close to making another decision. Because this girl is moving quickly. She's fading. She's changing. She's showing increasingly mature flowers. And we're approaching the point where we may stop the feeding program for her very soon. Not today. Not just because the calendar says so. But because we're watching the plant. And the plant is giving us information. She's telling us: "I'm getting close." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฎ๐ŸŒธ So we're listening. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿง  The Plant Gets The Final Vote This is something I've repeated throughout this entire adventure. And it becomes even more important now. The calendar says Week 13. The plant says: "Look at me." ๐Ÿ˜‚ So we look. We look at the flowers. We look at the pistils. We look at the foliage. We look at the resin. We look at the overall structure. And then we decide what comes next. I'm not interested in forcing a plant into a schedule just because a number on the calendar says we should. She's alive. She's changing. She's communicating. And right now... she's communicating very loudly. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿฎ "I'm getting close." Message received. 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’ง Stable Room โ€” Stable Plants And just like the rest of the reports this week... we're keeping the room stable. No unnecessary changes. No dramatic interventions. No sudden environmental swings. The ecosystem is working. The plants are responding. And Chem Brรปlรฉe is moving beautifully. So we continue. Observe. Maintain. Document. Enjoy. And adjust when the plant actually tells us it's time. At this stage, there's no reason to create work just for the sake of doing something. She's already doing enough work herself. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒธ 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 13 โ€” CURRENT ROOM CONDITIONS The room remains under the same general conditions for this week's reports: ๐ŸŒธ Flowering โ€” Week 13 ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule โ€” 12/12 ๐Ÿ’ก Future of Grow Black Series LEDs โ€” upgraded setup ๐Ÿ”Œ Approx. lighting output โ€” ~59% from the plug โ˜€๏ธ Upper-canopy PPFD โ€” ~1,500 ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature โ€” ~27ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature โ€” ~26ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง Relative humidity โ€” ~61% โš—๏ธ pH โ€” ~6.04 โšก EC โ€” ~2.05 mS/cm ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Solution temperature โ€” ~25ยฐC ๐ŸŒฑ Substrate temperature โ€” ~25ยฐC ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ COโ‚‚ โ€” ~693 ppm ๐ŸŒฑ Pot size โ€” 15 L ๐Ÿ’ฆ Irrigation โ€” ~1.45 L per plant / 24h Same room. Same environment. Same ecosystem. Same lighting. Same feeding. Different phenotype. And this phenotype is moving 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”€ ๐ŸŒธ Big Flowers โ€” Bigger Personality There's something really satisfying about watching this girl now. Earlier in the cycle, we were watching her build. Now we're watching what she built mature. The flowers are substantial. The structure is established. The main cola is huge. The pistils are changing. The leaves are beginning to fade. And the resin is still shining. This is where the whole plant starts coming together. All those weeks of: ๐ŸŒฑ Growth ๐Ÿ’ก Photons ๐Ÿ’ง Irrigation ๐ŸŒธ Flower development ๐ŸŒฟ Leaf production โ„๏ธ Resin development ...are now becoming visible in the final structure. And Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno A has built herself something pretty impressive. 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 The Wild Girl Is Entering The Final Stretch I think "wild girl" is probably the best way to describe her now. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿฎ She's not slowing down. She's changing quickly. She's showing maturity. She's fading. She's carrying that huge main cola. And she's doing all of it with that same individuality we've been following since the beginning. I don't know exactly how much longer she has. And I'm not going to pretend I do. But I can say this: She's getting close enough that we're starting to think seriously about the final feeding decisions. And that's exciting. Because after all these weeks... we're getting close to seeing the final version of Chem Brรปlรฉe 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“ธ The Studio Treatment And honestly... this girl deserves photographs. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿฎ Because when a plant reaches this stage, you start noticing things that weren't visible earlier. The flower structure. The density. The changing pistils. The fading leaves. The resin. The size of that main cola. And the contrast between the remaining green foliage and the parts that are beginning to change colour. This is exactly why I love documenting the plants week after week. The photographs aren't just decoration. They're the timeline. They're the evidence. They're the memory of the journey. And Chem Brรปlรฉe has given us one hell of a timeline. 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”ฌ Same Room โ€” Different Finish Lines We're getting deeper into one of the most fascinating parts of the experiment now. Because the girls are not finishing together. Some are further ahead. Some are behind. Some are moving quickly. Some are taking their time. And Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno A? She's clearly one of the girls moving quickly toward the final stage. Same room. Same environment. Same lighting. Same nutritional philosophy. And yet... her own timeline. That's genetics. That's phenotype expression. And that's exactly why we documented twelve separate diaries. If we had only one plant, we'd have one story. With twelve? We get twelve. And this girl has a particularly wild one. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ”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”€ ๐ŸŒฟ We're Not Going To Force The Finish Even though we're getting close, I'm still not interested in forcing anything. No artificial deadline. No: "Week 13 means we must do X." No. We're going to watch. We're going to observe. And if she continues telling us she's entering the final stage... we'll respond. The possible reduction or stopping of feeding is coming very soon. But for now? Everything remains stable. Let her keep doing her thing. She's clearly capable of telling us when she's ready. 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 Looking Ahead Now I'm genuinely excited about the next chapter. Because we're getting close. The leaves are fading. The hairs are changing. The flowers are becoming denser and more mature. The main cola is huge. And the plant is moving fast. So the next few updates could become very interesting. How much further will those flowers develop? How much more will the foliage change? How will the resin develop? When will we finally say: "Okay, girl. That's enough. You're ready." I don't know yet. And I don't want to guess. Let's let her tell us. Because she's been pretty loud lately. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ”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”€ โค๏ธ FINAL THOUGHTS โ€” LET THE BEAST SHINE Week 13. And Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno A has officially entered beast mode. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿฎ She's wild. She's beautiful. She's moving fast. She's changing. She's fading. She's maturing. And she's carrying one absolutely massive main cola. The hairs are changing. The flowers are becoming denser. The plant is clearly entering the final stage. And honestly? I'm loving every minute of it. She's not the biggest plant in the room. She's not trying to be. She doesn't need to be. Because what she's built is impressive enough. A medium-sized plant with some serious flowers. A huge main cola. Beautiful secondary flowers. Plenty of resin. Changing pistils. And now those beautiful signs of maturity beginning to appear throughout the plant. So... let's make her shine. Let's give this wild girl the spotlight. Let's appreciate everything she's built. Let's appreciate the colours. Let's appreciate the flowers. Let's appreciate that monster main cola. Let's appreciate the frost. And let's enjoy the fact that after thirteen weeks... we're finally getting close enough to see where this story is heading. ๐Ÿฎโ„๏ธ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’š For now... we keep the room stable. We keep watching. We keep documenting. And very soon, we may stop feeding her and allow the final chapter to unfold. But not yet. For now... she's still working. And she's doing one hell of a job. Keep shining, Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno A. Keep doing your wild thing. We're watching. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿฎ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’š 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 A huge thank you to Zamnesia for giving us the opportunity to explore these Chem Brรปlรฉe genetics and follow this individual phenotype throughout the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ™ Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of the journey and providing the tools behind this flowering cycle. A massive thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting and especially for supplying the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures we're testing in this room. ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ™ Thank you to Lumiflora for adding another dimension of light deeper into the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us monitor and manage the environment behind the scenes. And, of course... thank you to everyone following this crazy 8ร—8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries. Every week we discover something new. A different structure. A different rhythm. A different phenotype. A different finish. And now we're entering one of the most exciting parts of the entire experiment: Watching these girls approach the end in completely different ways. Chem Brรปlรฉe Pheno A? She's doing it like a beast. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿฎ Fast. Wild. Frosty. Dense. And carrying one hell of a main cola. She's fading. She's changing her hairs. She's moving toward the final stage. And soon enough... we'll see exactly what all these weeks of photons, nutrition, environment, patience and genetics have created. Until then... we keep watching. We keep learning. We keep documenting. And we let the plant write the final pages. Keep shining, wild girl. You've earned the spotlight. Growers Love & Happy Growing! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿฎโ„๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ

One of the elbows on the fixture was loose and lowered a bulbs, getting a few tops a little crispy so I dropped the pot a half inch. Other than that we are trucking along. Probably another 4 weeks to go

Buenas a tod@s... Otra semanita mรกs de flora para estรกs hermosas niรฑas... Creciendo un poquitito mรกs, super bien, super fuertes... Ya faltan pocas semanas y la verdad q lo las veo nada mal, absorben muy bien los nutrientes, aumentado el riego a 1lt x planta, no tienen ningรบn signo malo de nada, todo perfecto, eh tenido que hacer un poco de defoliaciรณn ya q habia muchรญsimas hojas grandes, se nota la buena circulaciรณn de aire, la penetraciรณn de luz en las partes bajas ( que aunque algunos no les den importancia o digan que esas zonas le quitan fuerzas a la planta, a mรญ me gusta dejar que crezca todo tal cual, sin problema.) son cogollos pequeรฑos, pero los aceptamos igual, claro q sรญ... Buenos humos y buena semana para tod@s a seguir trabajando... ๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ท

๐ŸŒฑ Week 1: The Journey Begins! ๐ŸŒŸ Hey Grow Fam! ๐Ÿ™Œ Weโ€™re off to an epic start with our TrolMaster adventure, and Iโ€™m already feeling the love for the setup, the seeds, and the growth happening in the room! So, letโ€™s dive right in and get into the details of this exciting week! ๐ŸŒฟ Germination Update: Our first Gorilla Melon seed from Fast Buds didnโ€™t sprout, but no worriesโ€”round two was a success! ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿˆ The second seed has germinated and is looking full of potential. Iโ€™m throwing in a Sweet Seeds Papaya Zoap into the germination station too, so weโ€™re keeping this exciting lineup going strong! Germination is such a key part of the journey, and having a healthy start is what itโ€™s all about. ๐Ÿ”ง Room Build & TrolMaster Setup: The build is coming along beautifully, and I gotta say, the TrolMaster system is blowing my mind! Everythingโ€™s under control like magic ๐ŸŽฉโœจ, and the TM+ app? Wow, just wow. I mean, I can literally be in the bathroom and still keep an eye on the plantsโ€”check all the metrics, adjust settings, and fine-tune what I need, all from my phone! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ง This level of control is next level. Iโ€™m loving how smooth and seamless it makes managing the room. The gear is just unreal, and seeing it all come together is truly something special. ๐ŸŒฑ Nutrition Talk: As for feeding, weโ€™re starting light but smart! Iโ€™ve begun with 0.15ml of Regulator and 0.25ml of Startbooster per liter for now. I always believe in starting easy and ramping up as the plants develop. These early stages are crucialโ€”balance is everything. For the time being, I feel this is more than enough to keep the babies happy and healthy. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’ง The Regulator is working wonders in maintaining plant structure and health, while the Startbooster is fueling the early root and vegetative growth, laying down a solid foundation for the weeks to come. Itโ€™s about getting it right from the startโ€”too much too early can be a killer. Keeping it steady with precision, thatโ€™s the goal! Big Shout-Outs: To the amazing team at @TrolMaster, @Fast_Buds, @Sweet_Seeds, @AptusHolland, and all the incredible sponsorsโ€”Iโ€™m beyond grateful for the support! ๐Ÿ’š And to my GrowDiaries fam and followers, you guys make this journey what it isโ€”thank you for the love, and Iโ€™m so honored to have you along for this ride. ๐Ÿ™ Weโ€™re just getting started, and I canโ€™t wait to show you whatโ€™s next. Stay tuned for more updates, epic builds, gear reviews, and plenty of insight. Donโ€™t forget to follow me on GrowDiaries, YouTube, and IG for exclusive content, and letโ€™s make this grow the best one yet! ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ”ฅ Growers Love to All ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š P.S.- A deep dive into the Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor (MBS-PAR): The Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor (MBS-PAR) is an essential tool for any serious grower looking to optimize their light environment. This sensor measures photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), which refers to the spectrum of light that plants actually use for photosynthesisโ€”typically between 400 and 700 nanometers and more depending . What makes the MBS-PAR sensor special is its full spectrum capability, meaning it accurately detects not just visible light but also far-red and UV lightโ€”which are crucial for maximizing plant growth, development, and flowering. With this tool, I can monitor the exact intensity of light my plants are receiving, making sure theyโ€™re getting the optimal levels for every stage of growth. By using this sensor in my grow room, Iโ€™ll be able to ensure that the light distribution is uniform across the canopy. Plus, it allows me to fine-tune the light output from my ThinkGrow LED setup, ensuring my plants are thriving under the best conditions. Whether itโ€™s increasing light during the vegetative phase or fine-tuning it for flowering, the MBS-PAR sensor helps me keep everything on point. And the best part? I can monitor it all through the TrolMaster app, ensuring I can make adjustments whenever neededโ€”even if Iโ€™m not in the grow room! This level of precision means healthier plants, better yields, and maximum efficiency. Itโ€™s a game-changer for taking the guesswork out of lighting and getting closer to growing perfection! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ก Growers Love to All ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š

: - Day 1 week 5: just checking how lst is doing, they will be ok - Day 2 week 5: not completely dry to water so Iโ€™ll wait for day 3 of week. Did lst to make sure all branches receive as much ligth as possible - Day 3 week 5: watered them with 4ml/L calmag and 2ml/L bio grow ph 6,5 tap water trough activated carbon filter. RHC#2 broke one of the branches, I had to tape it. Not to be worried, sheโ€™ll recover from that. RHC#3 is very slow compared to the others. - Day 4 week 5: defoliation so sun enters better and wait. - Day 5 week 5: added 1L of water with 2ml/L Bio grow, 6 ml/L calmag and 2ml/L bio heaven. 1600 us/cm and ph 6,2 - 6,5. RHC#3 suffered of broken branch due lst ๐Ÿ˜ž still learning about the flexibility of branches. I think sheโ€™ll recover hoping not too much stress for her. - Day 6 week 5: RHC#3 looks good despite broken branch. Not much for today just watch temp and humidity, hoping they grow tall so I can cover a good part of the tent.

Day 50. Still a lot larger than I anticipated. But the good news is she still fits in the 3x3 and is showing signs of slowing down the stretch. Iv heard people burning up their plants using canna PH13/14. So Iโ€™m going to mess around with a couple dosages and see how she handles it. So far this method has done almost exactly what I wanted. Stayed about a foot shorter with a much more even canopy. In about 10 days she will be getting another heavy defoliation. Update day 54. Heavy defoliation under way to expose bud sites. In about 6 days Iโ€™m going for mt first schwazzing. Should be a good time Update: As week 8 comes to an end I and very happy with the progress. Iโ€™ve bumped the ec up to 2.8. Will continue on that for a little bit longer. Day 60 about I will do my first โ€œschwazzingโ€ pretty excited about that.

En las hojas se ven las manchas del oidio residual.. por el momento estรก inactivo, pero no se si volverรก, lo que sรญ se seguro es que cuando corte, voy a hacer bud washing e intentarรฉ traerlo aquรญ al diario. Lo harรฉ con el objetivo de acabar con toda espora y residuo. Por otro lado, habรฉis visto los tonos taaan oscuros de morado que estรกn cogiendo las hojas? Incluso una partida por la mitad mitad verde, mitad morado oscuro! Seguramente las deje una o dos semanas mas, osea, esta y quizรกs la siguiente, quiero sacar el tricoma ambar, no todo pero si un 40/60 blanco/ambar..

W19 (Harvest) 6-6 Last day before harvest. 7-6 Harvest day! Installed a humidifier outside the tent, set to 55% aiming for a 60% humidity inside the dry tent. 17-6 After 10 days of drying she is ready to be trimmed. While posting this a couple of months later i found out that i totally forgot to make pictures and video's of the trimmed buds ๐Ÿ˜… End result #1: 37 Grams of dried buds. 35.84 Grams of dried trim and very small buds, into the freezer. I would describe pheno 1 as normal frosty, almost stone like buds, smells chemical with hints of dish soap (i really like it!) I cant describe the taste but it was very tasty out of the box, before the cure, very sad i only had 37 grams of it haha. End result #2: Around 70 grams of dried buds. 43.23 Grams of dried trim and small buds, into the freezer for bubble hash. I would describe pheno 2 as very frosty buds, little bit fluffy, smells very gassy, with a nice sour taste after curing a couple of months. Very interesting strain, i will definitely grow it again! I have some trim and small buds saved up from different strains and i will be posting a diary of the full process making hash of them! If you are interested in me making bubble hash feel free to follow me as i will make some in the next month, this way you keep notified!

Greetings, fellow growers and cosmic adventurers! As we bid farewell to Week 10, we find ourselves at the culmination of an extraordinary journey with our beloved Apolo F1. Join me as we embark on a retrospective voyage through the highs and lows, the triumphs and challenges, of this cosmic odyssey. Our journey with Apolo F1 began ten weeks ago, a small seedling filled with potential and promise. From those humble beginnings, she grew and flourished under our watchful gaze, unfurling her leaves and reaching for the stars with each passing day. Through meticulous care and nurturing attention, we witnessed her transformation into a true botanical queen. Throughout her growth cycle, we employed various techniques to coax the best from our cosmic companion. From LST to topping, we shaped and sculpted her canopy, encouraging lateral growth and maximizing light penetration. As a result, Apolo F1 flourished, her branches reaching skyward in a testament to the power of cultivation and the wonders of nature. Central to Apolo F1's journey was the nourishment provided by Aptus Holland, our steadfast companion and sponsor. With their nutrient lineup, we crafted a symphony of minerals and organic compounds, tailored to her specific needs at each stage of growth. From seedling to harvest, Aptus Holland's nutrients fueled her cosmic voyage, ensuring robust health and abundant yields. And now, the moment we've all been waiting for: the harvest. With bated breath and eager hands, we carefully snipped each bud from the canopy, marveling at their dense, resinous beauty. Apolo F1 had exceeded our wildest expectations, her compact stature yielding a bounty of cosmic goodness. As she hangs upside-down, her buds curing in the cool darkness, we reflect on the journey that brought us hereโ€”a journey filled with wonder, growth, and boundless possibility. Before we bid adieu, let us extend heartfelt thanks to Royal Queen Seeds for crafting the genetic marvel that is Apolo F1. Their dedication to excellence has brought joy and inspiration to growers around the world, and we are grateful for their contributions to our green adventures. Likewise, a shoutout to Grow Diaries and the entire community for their unwavering support and camaraderie. Together, we have cultivated a garden of dreams, and the harvest is sweeter for it. As we gaze upon Apolo F1, our cosmic queen, we are filled with a sense of pride and accomplishment. She is more than just a plantโ€”she is a testament to the power of cultivation, the wonders of nature, and the boundless potential of the human spirit. Until we meet again, may your gardens flourish and your green adventures be ever cosmic.

Let me tell you about Week 9 ๐Ÿ˜ช........ Yup got me re thinking some of my prior choices, I really want to kick over the other 2 plants so I can make room for Garganchula. I admit I DONT KNOW what Im doing and its starting to show. I LOST control of my tent. They said LST and DEFOLIATE for proper maintenance? REASONS why I lost control now, I know when to admit DEFEAT and I'm defeated. All I do LST and DEFOLIATION (3hrs), and 1 week later, looks like I did NOTHING. 24 inchs wanted to flip to flower but also wanted 1 more month of VEG. Looks like a bigger tent or early flower, we shall see what the WIFE say๐Ÿคซ๐Ÿคซ๐Ÿคซ I don't think ๐Ÿค” 1 plant like 1700 ppms Burnt tips, funny coloration of fan leaves ๐Ÿƒ NOT ALL but lower growth. I call SLIGHT nute burn 1550ppms here I come, I really don't know what im doing LMFAO.....
