This was another very good week for the plants, with the flowers beginning to swell up and take shape. Some of the lower leaves are starting to yellow, but this is expected. As the light doesn't penetrate as far, the plant will begin to 'consume' those leaves and drop them to redirect energy to the tops. The canopy is fairly even apart from 1 small spot, which does not have any colas at all. This is due to me bending away the GSC that was topped, with the intention of the lower branches stretching up. This happened with all the other plants I did it to, but not this one for some reason. I think it was due to airflow around the budsites so I added an extra fan last week to hopefully improve this. The strongest looking plants by far are still the ones that were Topped with LST, followed by the mainlined, with only LST in last place. I have found that the LST only ones do not have stems as thick as the others, so this may impact yield later. Not much done in the way of training apart from the odd leaf bending or stem tying. The next few weeks will most likely be fairly uneventful, as now we just need to wait for them to flower fully :D

Week 8 Flower The last week of flush for these two. They were taken down on Day 56, after a 16 Day flush. I think Twin2 could have finished at 7 weeks, but of course I hadn't planned for this, or I would have flushed sooner. So she was taken to the originally planned 8 weeks. Twin2 has also foxtailed quite a bit, from only slightly higher temps and also because she's having a last attempt at catching any pollen in order to reproduce. Although the pots were slightly damp still when I harvested, it is best to take them down when they're dry. The only reason I didn't, was because I knew I'd be too busy the next day, and there were plants in veg that were desperate to be thrown into the flower tent! The pics do make them look wetter than they were though. Their fan leaves were taken off and they were each hung in seperate boxes, where they'll dry as slowly as possible for between 6-10 days. I dont suffer with very high humidity, so I'm able to do this without any issues. When I feel it is too humid, I simply burp the box for the first day or 2 once a day. The slower the dry the better the buds will taste/smell. Once she's dry enough she'll be trimmed and jarred for curing. It's going to be a pretty tough one for keeper pheno! They both have similar but very different smells. By that I mean, they both smell very floral and sweet, but T2 smells extra sweet (although definitely not as dense). That doesn't mean T1 doesn't smell just as nice. Hers buds are thicker and more dense, so even though I've favourited T2 in the pics, I think I'm leaning towards T1 still. But in all honesty it's still down to dry weight and the taste test! This can all be looked forward to in the harvest update! It's been a seriously fun diary with these two twins. I'm definitely glad I separated them. Do you think you'll attempt to separate them after seeing my experience? Please let me know! Thanks for following and happy growing! 🐺

Tomorrow is the official first week since flip. They are stretching and greening up nicely!! Noticed a little light burn on some tips when I dropped to 18". Gonna see how it progresses. Nutrient wise they are jammin. No issues here. The only problem might be I get overgrown haha! Farmer problems 🤣 Day 12 of flowering. They continue to improve. I believe they are now dug into their new soil and I should have very little trouble keeping them fed. They are really pushing the stretch, especially the BMX!!! It caught up to the sherbs in the last couple days and the bud site structure is TIGHT!!!! The BMX is about to show me what she can do. That Sherbs though, I am so excited about her. Watered all today and they were THIRSTY! took 1 and 1/2 gallons of water to saturate the 7 gallon pots. SCROG LIFE!!! lol

Week 9 - flushing begins. Week 8 went well, this girl packed on extra weight and bud density, a few branches broke away from their main stem, I had to tie them up. This girl is incredibly sticky, with a light fruit smell.

Eccoci qui... Tutto va per il meglio, questa settimana non ho applicato stress alla piccola, ma ho guardato l'evoluzione che ha avuto dando i nutrienti. Ora ha un odore davvero intenso ed uno strato di resina pauroso, vediamo come si riprende dalla defogliazione che ho fatto settimana scorsa. Seguiranno aggiornamenti, grazie a tutti per il supporto🔥🌲❤️

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno B Week 7 | Grace in Full Bloom Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 One of the reasons I enjoy phenotype hunts so much is that they constantly remind me there is no such thing as a "perfect" plant. Every phenotype finds its own balance. Some become giants. Some stay compact. Some grow with explosive vigour. Others impress through elegance. Cash Express Pheno B continues to fall into that last category. She isn't the biggest plant in the room. She isn't the smallest either. She's simply developing into a wonderfully balanced lady with beautiful structure, healthy growth and one of the nicest leaf formations in the entire tent. Week after week, she keeps giving me more reasons to smile. ──────────────────────────── 🌿 A Beautiful Balance As flowering progresses, Pheno B is showing exactly why patience is so rewarding. Her stretch has been steady and controlled, creating a tall, elegant structure with excellent spacing between flowering sites. Every branch has room to breathe, while the canopy remains beautifully open for airflow and light penetration. She has reached around 90 cm this week, making her one of the medium-sized ladies in the room. Not towering above everyone... Not hiding beneath the canopy... Just perfectly balanced. Sometimes that's exactly where the magic happens. ──────────────────────────── 🍃 Leaves Like Open Hands Every time I look at this plant, one feature immediately catches my attention. Her leaves. They're absolutely gorgeous. Large, healthy seven-finger fan leaves spread wide open, almost like welcoming hands reaching toward the light. They have that deep healthy green colour every grower loves to see, with perfectly formed leaflets and beautiful symmetry throughout the plant. Healthy foliage tells us a great deal before harvest ever arrives. Strong leaves mean efficient photosynthesis. Efficient photosynthesis means more energy. And more energy ultimately becomes flowers. Nature has built a wonderful engine here, and it's running beautifully. ──────────────────────────── 🌸 Flowers Begin Taking Centre Stage The flowers continue developing exactly as I hoped. Every branch is now carrying clusters of bright white pistils that are beginning to stack together more noticeably than last week. The plant is clearly shifting her priorities. The stretch is slowing. Flower production is accelerating. While they're still early in development, the bud sites are becoming increasingly defined, giving us a much clearer picture of what this phenotype may become over the coming weeks. It's one of those exciting stages where every morning seems to bring a little more growth than the day before. ──────────────────────────── 💡 Light From Above... And Below As the canopy continues filling out, the combination of overhead lighting from the Future of Grow Black Series LED together with the LumiFlora under-canopy lights is creating an environment where every flowering site has the opportunity to thrive. The additional light beneath the canopy helps illuminate lower bud sites that would otherwise receive considerably less energy. Combined with her naturally open structure, this should allow more uniform flower development throughout the entire plant. It's another small detail that I'm very excited to evaluate as we move deeper into flowering. ──────────────────────────── 🌱 Feeding The AutoPot system continues quietly doing what it does best, supplying fresh nutrient solution whenever the plant requests it and allowing the roots to remain consistently hydrated without overthinking irrigation schedules. This week's reservoir consisted of: • Plagron Terra Bloom – 2 ml/L • Plagron Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L pH adjusted to 5.8 using Lemon Kick and pH Plus when required. Everything remains stable, and the plant continues responding with healthy foliage and steady flower production. Sometimes consistency really is the best feeding strategy. ──────────────────────────── 🌡️ Environment Environmental conditions remained very stable throughout the week, giving the entire room exactly what it needed during this important flowering phase. 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% 🥥 Root zone temperature: 21°C 💦 Solution temperature: 24°C ⚗️ pH: 5.8 ⚡ EC: 1.95 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: 639 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 When the environment remains this consistent, the plants can spend less energy adapting and more energy building flowers. That's exactly what we're seeing here. ──────────────────────────── 📸 Behind the Lens This week's photographs showcase everything I enjoy about this phenotype. The close-ups reveal fresh white pistils reaching confidently upward while the overhead shots highlight those incredible seven-finger leaves radiating around each developing flower like a natural frame. The full-plant portraits show an elegant architecture with evenly spaced branches and excellent internodal distance. She's becoming one of those plants that's simply enjoyable to photograph. Every angle seems to reveal another beautiful detail. And somehow she manages to look graceful without ever trying too hard. ──────────────────────────── 🔍 Looking Ahead The coming weeks should be where things become really exciting. I expect the remaining stretch to slow even further while the flowers begin stacking more aggressively along every branch. Resin production should gradually begin increasing, and those beautiful clusters of pistils will slowly transform into proper colas. From here forward, my job remains simple. Maintain the environment. Keep the reservoir stable. Tuck the occasional leaf when needed. Then step back and let the genetics tell the rest of the story. Sometimes the best growers aren't directing the performance. They're simply giving nature the perfect stage. ──────────────────────────── 💚 Thank You Thank you to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure. Every diary, every comment and every conversation reminds me how fortunate I am to share this journey with such an incredible growing community. A heartfelt thank you to GrowDiaries for bringing growers together from every corner of the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for providing the wonderful Cash Express genetics that continue revealing unique personalities with every passing week. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting every stage of this cultivation. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for delivering the powerful lighting that fuels this entire project. A special thank you to LumiFlora for the under-canopy lighting, helping ensure every flowering site receives the attention it deserves. Thank you as well to AutoPot for making irrigation beautifully simple while allowing the plants themselves to decide exactly when they want to drink. And finally... Thank you to every grower who follows along, leaves a comment, asks a question or simply enjoys watching these beautiful plants develop. Your support makes this adventure even more meaningful. Growers Love, and I'll see you all next week as Cash Express Pheno B continues transforming those elegant seven-finger leaves into a canopy full of beautiful flowers. 💚🚂🌱

Hey guys! This week my pheno #1 was harvested after 12 days of flush. I forgot to mention that I've been flushing her before the others because she matured her trichomes earlier. She also started to flower a little more than a week before so I was expecting it. :) It was a good run for her I think, ended up with some dense buds that are drying in my dyi dry box, because I still have two other plants running in the tent. My house smells good 👍 I thought about doing the flush in the other two like I said last week, but watching their trichomes development I gave them one more week of feeding, because I think they still have some bulking to do. About the harvest of #1: I've ended up with 334g wet weight, and I will share all the photos and data in the harvest week with all together. Some of the buds are so frosty and they have like small resin balls that dripped from some parts! I've never seen this before in any grow of mine, but I've seen this at another diary here from the same strain. What a pleasant surprise! Have you all a great week, Felix ✌️

Day one of the 12th week, cutting off the nutrients I feel like it is time to flush. And what I did wrong in the beginning of this grow, was that I placed the plants too far away from the light the first 4 weeks of veg or so. My thought was too make the plants stretch taller in the beginning, but disregarding the par, the ppfd I realized too late that the branches did not get what they needed for length. These plants could have been much larger just for growers information.

20/01/2025 Seedlings have definitely grown in size! Bottom watered again today. Mixed 3L solution of Calmag, Growell Plus 8:8:8, Seaweed extract (2ml / 1ml / 1ml) and watered 1L per pot. Solution was sucked dry from tray relatively fast, guess the roots are growing. 21/01/2025 Measured PPFD / DLI today and found that my existing light had a relatively low ppfd value output. Reading 50 plus PPFD / 4.5 DLI at 24 inch height 75% power, generating insane amounts of heat if the grow tent is closed. Thing is the max ppfd is about 150 at 24 inches. Can't bring down the lights more without potentially causing light burn due to the high DLI low ppfd ratio. Fortunately I have the tent in a temperature controlled room so I had to leave the tent open to ensure there was good airflow cooling down the excess heat without causing too much of a temp shift. Managed to bring up the humidity by adding a larger humidifier maintaining 60 to 70 % range. Did myself a favour and ordered the vivosun aerolight a200se to go along with the rest of the vivosun kit. Hoping it arrives by week 3! Besides this, seedlings look healthy, did some foliar feeding with homemade wood vinegar (5ml to 1L) after lights out. 22/01/2025 I almost killed my plants with light lol. Turns out my existing light was putting up alright dishing out 1200 pfd from 24 inches at max. I noticed some skewed reading when I was tilting my phone screen so decided to take off the screen protector and damn.. ppfd was at 800 ppfd! It was the screen protector not the lights 😆 Since there were no signs of yellowing or wilting I decided to keep it at 400 ppfd. Bottom watered with 1L each of (2ml CalMag / 1ml Growell Plus 8:8:8 / 1ml Seaweed to 3L phed to 5.9) had about 100 ml excess after waiting for 10 mins so I drained out the excess. 23/01/2025 Fortunately my blunder with the lights didn't cost me too much. Plants still looking healthy, 3rd set of true leaves opening up.
