👑 8×8 Adventure – Godfather OG by Zamnesia | Pheno B 🌿 💚 BIG MAMA'S FINAL HARVEST REPORT — ONE BEAUTIFUL TREE, A FROSTY HARVEST & A VERY HAPPY GROWER! ❄️👑 Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 MY FRIENDS... BIG MAMA HAS FINALLY REACHED THE END OF HER SAGA! 😂👑🔥 And what a beautiful journey this girl has given us! Our Godfather OG Pheno B. Our Big Mama. Our compact, heavy, frosty Queen. And honestly, I couldn't be happier with how she turned out. If you've been following her diary, you already know that this girl has been an absolute pleasure from beginning to end. While her sister gave us a much more challenging journey, Big Mama just kept doing her thing, developing beautifully and reaching harvest without giving us any major problems. Same genetic name. Same general growing environment. Two individual phenotypes. And two very different growing experiences! That's exactly why we document them separately. Each plant deserves her own story, and Big Mama certainly deserves a proper final chapter. Before we get into the details, I invite everyone who hasn't followed her journey from the beginning to visit the previous weekly reports. We've documented her development, the final growing stage, harvest day, the whole-plant drying process, the DryFerm side-by-side experiment, and the beginning of trimming. Everything leading up to this moment is explained in those reports, with plenty of photographs along the way. For this update, we're bringing the story together: the trimming, the final results, the curing, and a little appreciation for the beautiful girl who gave us all of this. So, let's finish her saga properly! 👑🌸💚 ──────────────────────── 🌱 A QUICK RECAP — HOW DID WE GET HERE? For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, Godfather OG Pheno B was part of our 8×8 Adventure, an experiment bringing twelve individual plants together in one shared growing room. One of the defining aspects of this project was our 12/12 from seed approach. All the plants shared the same general lighting schedule, environment, and overall growing strategy, allowing us to observe how different genetics and individual phenotypes expressed themselves. And Big Mama certainly made herself memorable! Throughout the run, she developed beautifully, built a substantial structure, and produced some seriously dense and frosty-looking flowers. No major problems from start to finish. No difficult final weeks. No unexpected drama. Just a strong, consistent girl doing her thing. Her sister, Godfather OG Pheno A, had a much more complicated experience. Big Mama, on the other hand, was one of those plants that made the entire journey genuinely enjoyable. And now we have the opportunity to compare their individual results and appreciate just how differently two phenotypes can perform. Same room. Same general approach. Different expressions. That's the beauty of this adventure! 💚 ──────────────────────── 👑 BIG MAMA — A TREE WITH A LOT TO GIVE! Let's be honest... Calling this girl Big Mama was absolutely appropriate! 😂 She might not have been the tallest plant in the room, but she developed a substantial structure and carried some seriously beautiful flowers. Throughout her growing journey, she remained strong and consistent. She developed without giving us major headaches, and by harvest time, she was looking exactly like the kind of plant you enjoy photographing. Dense flowers. Beautiful frost. A compact but substantial structure. And an aroma that was already giving us a good idea of what was waiting inside those flowers. I particularly appreciate plants like this because they allow us to focus on observing their development rather than constantly trying to solve problems. Of course, every plant has its own requirements, and a smooth run doesn't mean every phenotype will behave the same way. But this particular girl gave us a fantastic experience. And now, let's talk about the numbers! ──────────────────────── ⚖️ THE NUMBERS — FROM HARVEST TO CURED FLOWERS Here we go! Big Mama gave us approximately 1,545.6 grams of wet plant material at harvest. That's a very nice amount of beautiful flowers and plant material coming from this single girl! After drying, trimming, and moving through the post-harvest process, we ended up with: 🌿 Wet harvest weight: 1,545.6 g 🌸 Final dried and cured weight: 193.2 g The final figure is the amount we're recording for this report. We did take some material out along the way for testing and sampling, so we're keeping the documented final result at 193.2 grams. And honestly, I'm very happy with that! She's not a plant that needs an enormous number attached to her name to make me appreciate her. I don't chase grams. I chase quality, aromas, flavours, and the overall experience. And Big Mama has given us plenty to appreciate. 193.2 grams of dried and cured flowers from one individual plant is a result I'm perfectly happy with, especially considering the quality and appearance of what we're looking at. Sometimes the numbers tell one part of the story. The flowers tell another. And the experience tells the rest. 💚🌸 ──────────────────────── ✂️ TRIMMING TIME — THE FINAL TOUCHES After drying, it was time to bring out the trimming tools and get everything ready for the next stage. We worked through the flowers using our scissors and TrimBin, separating the finished buds from the remaining leaf material and giving them their final presentation. It's always satisfying to reach this stage. After following a plant for so many weeks, watching her develop, photographing her flowers, and eventually taking her down, you finally get to appreciate the finished material in your hands. And Big Mama gave us some lovely flowers to work with. The density was particularly enjoyable to see, and the frost made the trimming session even more interesting. Of course, trimming is also a reminder of how much hands-on work goes into the final result. The photographs show some of that process, the flowers, the trimming setup, and the material as we worked through the harvest. And yes, the TrimBin was part of the operation once again! 😂✂️ ──────────────────────── 🌬️ DRYING EXPERIMENT — DRYFERM BAGS VS. THE DRYING RACK Another interesting part of this harvest was our side-by-side drying experiment. As explained in the previous report, we divided material from the same plant between two different approaches. Some flowers were dried using the traditional drying rack, while other portions were placed inside DryFerm bags. The idea was to compare the results using material from the same phenotype, rather than comparing completely different plants and pretending that genetics wouldn't influence the outcome. We wanted to observe the differences and, particularly, see whether we could notice anything in the aroma and flavour profiles later. We're keeping the comparison honest. The drying method is one variable, but there are many things that can influence the final result. So we're not going to declare a winner based on appearance alone. We'll discuss what we noticed in more detail during the smoke review, when we can compare the cured flowers properly. A big thank you to DryFerm for providing the bags and making this little experiment possible. It's always interesting to test different approaches, document what happens, and share the observations with the community. Same plant. Same phenotype. Two drying approaches. And another interesting comparison to add to the 8×8 Adventure! ──────────────────────── ? FROM TRIMMING TO CURING — THE FINAL HOME FOR BIG MAMA Once the flowers were trimmed, we moved them into glass jars for curing and storage. We used dark jars designed to keep light away from the flowers, helping protect the material during storage. And this is an important distinction: drying and curing are two different stages. The drying process comes first. Once the flowers are sufficiently dry, they can move into an appropriate curing and storage environment. The jars give us a practical way to keep the flowers protected, organised, and separated while they continue through the curing stage. For me, this is also where patience becomes important. I don't want to rush into a smoke review immediately after drying. I prefer to give the flowers time in the jars, allow them to rest, and then come back to evaluate them properly. That's why the smoke reviews you see in these diaries are based on cured flowers, not simply freshly dried material. And Big Mama has had her time. Her flowers have been stored, opened and closed during the process, and given time to rest before I sat down to write about the experience. The final report deserves that extra patience. 💚? ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FLOWERS — DENSE, FROSTY & BEAUTIFUL Now, let's appreciate what this girl produced! Big Mama gave us beautiful, dense-looking flowers with plenty of visible frost. Her appearance is very similar to her sister's, and the overall aromatic profile is also remarkably close. The main difference I've noticed is that Big Mama isn't quite as loud aromatically as Pheno A. Her sister has a stronger presence in that department, but the underlying profile is very similar. And that's fascinating to me. Two phenotypes carrying the same genetic name, grown under the same general conditions, yet showing their own individual differences. This is exactly the kind of observation I enjoy documenting. We can look at the flowers, compare their development, evaluate their aromas, and eventually compare their smoking experiences. And while the deeper flavour profile deserves its own report, I can already say that Big Mama has given us something special. She's beautiful. She's aromatic. She's frosty. And she's one of those plants that makes you happy every time you open the jar. 👑❄️🌸 ──────────────────────── 💚 BIG MAMA VS. HER SISTER — SAME NAME, DIFFERENT JOURNEYS I think it's worth taking a moment to appreciate the contrast between our two Godfather OG phenotypes. Both girls shared the same general environment and growing approach. But their individual experiences were quite different. Pheno A gave us a more challenging journey, with a difficult growing experience and a few moments that required extra attention. Pheno B, our Big Mama, was remarkably smooth from beginning to end. She grew strongly, developed beautifully, and reached harvest without any major problems. And yet, when we look at the final flowers and consider their aromatic profiles, we find plenty of similarities. Big Mama's aroma is a little quieter than her sister's, but the profile itself is very close. That's one of the things I find so interesting about growing different phenotypes. You can have plants that share the same genetic name and growing environment, yet each one brings something slightly different to the table. Neither experience cancels out the other. They simply show us two individual expressions. And I'm genuinely happy that we had the opportunity to document both. Same room. Same genetics. Two different personalities. Two beautiful stories. 💚🌱👑 ──────────────────────── ⭐ MY FINAL THOUGHTS — A VERY HAPPY GROWER! My friends... What a girl! Big Mama has been an absolute pleasure from start to finish. She gave us a smooth growing experience, beautiful flowers, a very nice final result, and plenty of reasons to keep opening the camera and taking photographs. 😂📸 Her final recorded weight is 193.2 grams of dried and cured flowers, and I'm genuinely happy with that result. But more importantly, I love the quality of what she gave us. The dense flowers. The beautiful frost. The aromatic profile. The overall experience. And the fact that she made the entire journey so enjoyable. Her sister might have had a louder aromatic presence, but Big Mama has her own charm, and I absolutely appreciate what she brought to this adventure. I'm also happy that we documented the drying comparison with DryFerm bags and the traditional drying rack. We'll return to that subject when discussing the cured flowers in the smoke review, because that's where the differences deserve to be evaluated properly. For now, this is the end of Big Mama's harvest and post-harvest story. And what a story it has been! She started as one of twelve individual plants sharing the 8×8 room. She developed into a beautiful, substantial plant. She reached harvest without giving us major problems. And she finished with 193.2 grams of dried and cured flowers. Big Mama... You have been an absolute pleasure. A beautiful girl, a beautiful harvest, and one very happy grower. Keep shining, Queen! 👑❄️🌸💚 ──────────────────────── 🙏 A HUGE THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!

And that's it, my friends! The growing journey is complete. The harvest is documented. The flowers have been trimmed, dried, and cured. And Big Mama has officially finished her 8×8 Adventure. 193.2 grams of beautiful, dried and cured flowers. One very happy grower. And a whole lot of photographs and memories! Thank you for following her journey, from the first weeks in the room all the way to this final report. Big Mama, you were amazing. Growers Love & Happy Growing! 🌱💚👑🔥 👑 8×8 Adventure – Godfather OG by Zamnesia | Pheno B 🌿 💚 BIG MAMA'S SMOKE REVIEW — SAME BEAUTIFUL PROFILE, A LITTLE LESS LOUD, AND STILL A 10/10 QUEEN! 🔥👑 Hello everyone, and welcome back! MY FRIENDS... IT'S BIG MAMA'S TURN! 😂👑💚 We've followed this girl from the beginning of her growing journey, through harvest, drying, trimming, and curing. We've seen her develop, admired her flowers, and finally had the opportunity to spend some proper time enjoying what she produced. And now it's time to talk about the most important part for me: the actual experience. Our Godfather OG Pheno B. Our Big Mama. And what can I say? SHE'S AMAZING! 🔥 Before getting into the details, I want to invite everyone to visit her previous diary reports. We've documented her entire journey, including the growing experience, harvest, final weight, drying process, and the side-by-side experiment with DryFerm bags. Everything is there, and I genuinely recommend checking those reports if you'd like the complete story behind this beautiful girl. For this update, we're focusing on the cured flowers, their aroma, flavour, and overall experience. And one important detail before we begin: these smoke reviews are based on properly dried and cured flowers, not freshly harvested material or flowers that have only just finished drying. I prefer to give the flowers time to rest before making my final observations. The jars and bags have had their time, and only after that do I sit down and write about what I'm experiencing. So, let's give Big Mama her spotlight! ──────────────────────── 🍊 THE AROMA — A FAMILIAR AND BEAUTIFUL PROFILE The first thing I noticed is how similar Big Mama is to her sister. The overall terpene profile is remarkably close. We're talking about that same beautiful combination of sweetness, fruitiness, and those deeper woody and herbal notes that made her sister so enjoyable. But there's one little difference. Big Mama isn't quite as loud aromatically. Her sister has a stronger presence when you open the container, while Pheno B is a little more reserved. But don't misunderstand me! That doesn't mean she's missing anything. The profile is there, the character is there, and the aroma is genuinely beautiful. It's fascinating to see how close these two phenotypes are while still having their own individual differences. Same genetic name, similar profile, but their own little personalities. And Big Mama certainly has hers! ──────────────────────── 🍬 THE FLAVOUR — SAME PROFILE, SAME MAGIC! Now, let's get to the good part. The flavour is very similar to her sister's, and that's something I genuinely appreciate. She brings that same sweet, fruity character, with the woody and herbal notes sitting underneath and giving the experience a little more depth. It's a beautiful combination. She's not simply sweet for the sake of being sweet. There's character behind it, and the different notes come together in a way that makes her particularly enjoyable. The most interesting thing for me is that the flavour profile follows the aroma quite closely. What I smell is very much what I experience when enjoying the flower. And although Pheno B isn't quite as loud as her sister, she's absolutely not lacking in personality. She's simply a little more subtle. And sometimes that's exactly what makes a particular jar so enjoyable. ──────────────────────── 🌿 THE EXPERIENCE — A BEAUTIFUL COMPANION This is where Big Mama really shines for me. She's one of those girls I genuinely enjoy having around during the day. Whether I'm working, creating content, talking with friends, editing photographs, or simply enjoying whatever the day brings, she's a very pleasant companion. I find the experience creative, enjoyable, and uplifting. There's a lovely balance to it, and I particularly appreciate that she doesn't feel like something I only want to save for one specific moment. She's versatile in my experience. A good companion for getting things done, enjoying conversations, being creative, and simply appreciating the day. And that is something I value enormously. Of course, individual experiences can vary, and this is my personal impression rather than a promise that everyone will experience the same effects. But for me, Big Mama is a beautiful one. ──────────────────────── ? A LITTLE WORD ABOUT CURING — GROVE BAGS I also want to explain something about how we've been storing and curing these flowers, because it's part of the post-harvest process and something that often creates questions. For this part of the journey, we've been using Grove Bags. These are purpose-designed curing and storage bags featuring their TerpLoc technology, a multilayer film designed to help manage the environment inside the bag. And there's an important distinction here: Grove Bags are not drying bags. The flowers need to be properly dried before going inside. They are not designed to take wet flowers straight from harvest and magically turn them into perfectly cured medicine. The drying stage must be done correctly first. Once the flowers are ready, the bags provide an environment designed to help regulate internal humidity and gas exchange while protecting the contents from unnecessary exposure to the outside environment. One of the advantages is that, under suitable conditions, you generally don't need to keep opening and closing the bags to manually burp them in the same way many growers do with traditional glass jars. That's one of the things I particularly appreciate about this system. You prepare the flowers properly, place them inside, seal the bag, and allow the curing process to continue. No constant opening just to exchange air. No unnecessary handling every day. And no need to disturb the flowers simply because you're following a traditional burping routine. However, let's be clear: this doesn't mean you can forget about the flowers completely. The starting moisture level matters enormously. If the flowers are too wet when they go inside, the bags cannot correct a poor drying process or guarantee that everything will be fine. Grove Bags provide a curing and storage environment. They don't replace proper drying, good handling, or basic observation. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ SHOULD YOU USE A LITTLE HYGROMETER INSIDE? If you're new to these bags, or simply want some extra reassurance, you can use a small hygrometer to monitor the relative humidity inside. It's a useful way to see what's happening rather than relying entirely on guesswork. Grove Bags describe their system as helping stabilise internal humidity around the 58–62% RH range, although the actual result depends on the condition of the flowers when they go inside and other factors. So, if you're unsure, a small humidity and temperature monitor can give you additional information and help you understand what's happening inside your bag. Just remember that the monitor is there to help you observe, not to compensate for flowers that weren't properly dried in the first place. And please don't confuse this with a vacuum-sealing system. Grove Bags are not vacuum bags, and the idea isn't to squeeze all the air out. The beauty of the system is the way the material is designed to manage the internal environment. For me, the biggest advantage is convenience combined with a purpose-built curing and storage solution. Less unnecessary handling, less opening and closing, and a practical way to keep the flowers protected while they rest. And after a few weeks? Well... You open the bag, and hopefully you get to enjoy the beautiful result of all that patience! 😂💚 ──────────────────────── 🌬️ DRYFERM VS. GROVE BAGS — TWO DIFFERENT STAGES! Since we've been testing different products throughout this harvest, I also want to make sure everyone understands the difference between the two systems we've documented. DryFerm was part of our drying experiment. Grove Bags are being used for the subsequent curing and storage stage. They have different purposes, and we shouldn't mix the two things together. We've been comparing drying approaches with DryFerm bags and the traditional drying rack, while Grove Bags have been part of how we've stored and cured the properly dried flowers. We'll continue discussing the differences we noticed between the drying methods, particularly their effect on aroma and flavour, in our individual smoke reviews. And so far, those side-by-side comparisons have given me plenty to think about! But that's another story. 😂🌿 ──────────────────────── 👑 BIG MAMA VS. HER SISTER — TWO BEAUTIFUL PHENOTYPES I know I've said this already, but I think it's worth repeating because it's one of the most interesting parts of this project. Big Mama and her sister have a remarkably similar aroma and flavour profile. They share that same general character, and the overall experience is very close. The main difference for me is intensity. Her sister is louder. Big Mama is a little more reserved. But when it comes to the actual profile and the enjoyment I get from the flowers, they're very close. And that's exactly why I love documenting individual phenotypes. We could easily put both plants under one general review and say they were the same. But that wouldn't tell the complete story. They had different growing experiences, different levels of aromatic intensity, and their own individual expressions. Big Mama was the easier girl to grow, while her sister gave us a much more challenging journey. Yet both produced flowers that I genuinely enjoy. Two different journeys. A very similar beautiful destination. 💚👑 ──────────────────────── ⭐ MY FINAL VERDICT — 10/10! My friends... What a girl! Big Mama has been amazing from beginning to end. She gave us a beautiful growing experience, a lovely harvest, dense and frosty flowers, and a cured product that I genuinely enjoy. Her aroma and flavour are beautiful. Her profile is very similar to her sister's, even if she's a little less loud. And the overall experience is exactly what I hoped to find when we started this journey. She's a great companion for working, creating, talking, and enjoying the day. She's versatile, enjoyable, and one of those girls whose jar I always appreciate having around. And when I combine the growing experience with the final quality, there's only one rating I can give her. 10/10! Congratulations to the breeders and everyone involved in creating this beauty. You did a fantastic job! Godfather OG Pheno B, our Big Mama... You were a pleasure to grow, a pleasure to photograph, and an absolute pleasure to enjoy. And I have a feeling that jar is going to become empty far too quickly! 😂 👑🌸💚 ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU! A huge thank you to Zamnesia for the Godfather OG genetics and for giving us the opportunity to follow both phenotypes throughout the 8×8 Adventure. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of this journey. A massive thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting and the additional 600W fixtures that have been part of our lighting ecosystem. Thank you to LumiFlora for adding another lighting dimension deeper into the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us monitor and manage the environment behind the scenes. And a special thank you to DryFerm for providing the bags that allowed us to carry out our drying comparison. Thank you to everyone following these diaries on GrowDiaries. The comments, questions, support, and shared experiences make documenting these individual journeys even more enjoyable. And, of course, thank you to the Dog Doctor community on Discord!

A beautiful plant. A beautiful harvest. A beautiful cured product. And one very happy grower! Big Mama, thank you for the journey. You may not have been the loudest of the two sisters, but you've certainly made yourself heard in my heart! 😂💚👑 10/10, without hesitation. Growers Love & Happy Growing! 🌱💚🔥

2 Nov: No water today, she had her 3.5 L yesterday. 2 Nov, later: Lowered her a few cm, her leaves were clawing. 3 Nov: Gave her 2.5 L of the 5 L feed mix (Bio-Grow 1, Bio-Bloom 4, Top-Max 4 ml/L) and another half litre of plain water, 3 L in total. 4 Nov: Cut some shaded leaves near the bud sites to open her up for air. Dimmed the lamp from 95 to 90 %, about 850 PPFD on the tops by my grid. 5 Nov: Another 3 L for her: 2.5 L of feed at Bio-Grow 1, Bio-Bloom 5, Top-Max 5 ml/L plus half a litre of plain water.

This strain really surprises any grower in relation to yield. The plant's structure itself does not have much density. The flavor and aroma refer mostly to pine and its production of trichomes is not the best that I’ve seen.

I have 2 that I wi'll start flushing in a few days and the other pheno types are probably another 5 days away from the 8 to 10 day flush.these girls are looking amazing.just check my video out .

Day #21 Defoliation Not topped (left) Topped (right). Super impressed so far.

They’re hungry and sucked up their second dose of heavy feed. But this time it’s the bloom solution. Sf2000 at full power! One plant has a clear genetics problem and I fear I’ll have to set my controls just to handle the good pheno and hope for the best with tiny Tim.

Harvest tomorrow. In the dark for 24hrs. First time growing an auto flower under the CO sun. Tomorrow will be day 70 from seed. Easy to grow.

Cellular respiration is the fundamental metabolic process that occurs in all living plant cells (roots, stems, leaves, flowers, seeds) to convert glucose into usable energy (ATP). It requires oxygen and produces carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. Root respiration is not a separate type of respiration, but rather a specific instance of cellular respiration occurring in the roots. Roots absorb oxygen from the air spaces in the soil to fuel their energy needs. Roots require a substantial amount of ATP for essential functions like nutrient and water absorption, as well as growth and maintenance of their tissues. The primary form of respiration in healthy plant roots is aerobic respiration, which is highly efficient, yielding up to 30-38 ATP molecules per glucose molecule. Anaerobic Respiration (Inefficient): If roots are deprived of oxygen (e.g., in waterlogged soil), they switch to anaerobic respiration, which is far less efficient, producing only 2 ATP molecules per glucose molecule and also generating alcohol, which can be toxic and kill the plant. Therefore, a plant with healthy, oxygenated roots performing efficient aerobic respiration in addition to the rest of the plant's cellular respiration has a much greater overall ATP production and energy capacity. A soil without organic matter will generally have a low Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC). Biochar is often prized for its potential to increase soil cation exchange capacity (CEC), but this effect is highly dependent on the specific properties of the biochar (feedstock and pyrolysis temperature) and the soil type to which it is applied. High-ash biochars, especially those produced at lower temperatures and applied to acidic or sandy soils, can significantly boost CEC by providing abundant binding sites for cations like calcium (Ca²⁺), magnesium (Mg²⁺), and potassium (K⁺). Biochar is more sustainable than typical organic matter for long-term soil improvement primarily due to its high stability and resistance to microbial decomposition, allowing it to persist in the soil for hundreds to thousands of years. This longevity provides a lasting positive effect on soil properties, particularly by increasing the cation exchange capacity (CEC) over time, while regular organic matter breaks down much faster. Biochar generally offers a much higher CEC than coco coir, though specific values vary greatly; while coco coir might sit around 40-60 cmol/kg, biochar can range from tens to over 200 cmol/kg, with sources like Acacia wood biochar or even coconut shell biochar often surpassing coco's capacity due to its porous structure, creating significantly more cation-binding sites for nutrients, making it superior for nutrient retention. Needs to be charged similar to coco but at a much higger rate. But shhhh.. it's a secret. Recommend a balanced ratio of key cations, particularly calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and potassium (K). A widely accepted general "ideal soil" cation saturation ratio is approximately 65-85% Ca, 6-12% Mg, and 2-5% K. That's roughly what mine gets.

🌸 Pink Rosay Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 7 (Flowering) 🌱 Sometimes the Quiet Ones Steal the Show One of the things I love most about growing is that plants don't compete with one another. They simply become the best version of themselves. Pink Rosay has never been the biggest lady in the room. She hasn't stretched toward the ceiling. She hasn't demanded constant attention. Instead, she's quietly transformed into one of the most elegant and captivating plants in this entire 8×8 Adventure. Standing at approximately 111 cm, she remains beautifully compact while filling her own little corner of the tent with an incredible number of perfectly formed flowering sites. She's one of those plants that makes you stop for a second every time you walk into the room. Not because she's loud. Because she's beautiful. 🌸 Week 7 – Finding Her Spotlight This week she's truly beginning to shine. The stretch is now almost completely behind her, allowing nearly all of her energy to be redirected toward flower production. Every branch seems alive. The flowers are stacking rapidly, calyxes continue swelling, and every cola is crowned with an explosion of brilliant white pistils that make the entire canopy glow beneath the lights. There is something incredibly clean about her appearance. Every branch is organised. Every flower seems perfectly positioned. Every day brings noticeably more substance. She's developing with confidence. And she's moving surprisingly fast. ✨ Already Frosty Before Her Time One detail that's impossible to ignore this week is just how quickly resin production has begun. For this stage of flowering, she's already wearing an impressive coating of trichomes. The sugar leaves are becoming increasingly dusted with sparkling resin glands, surrounding each developing flower with that unmistakable frosted appearance that every grower loves to see. It's still very early. These aren't finished flowers. They're only just getting started. Yet the genetics are already hinting at the incredible resin production waiting later in bloom. It's like watching winter slowly arrive, one crystal at a time. 🌼 The Language of White Pistils Everywhere you look... White. Fresh. Healthy pistils. One of the most rewarding parts of early flowering is watching these bright white hairs emerge across every flowering site. For newer growers, it's worth remembering that these aren't the flowers themselves. They're part of the female reproductive structure, growing from each calyx as the plant continues building her buds. They're essentially the roadmap of flower development. Today they're long, soft and brilliantly white. Over the coming weeks they'll slowly mature, change colour and retreat back into the swelling calyxes as each bud becomes larger, denser and more mature. For now, they're telling us exactly what we want to hear. "This plant is building flowers." And she's doing it beautifully. 🍃 Healthy Leaves, Vibrant Colour & Perfect Balance The foliage continues looking absolutely outstanding. The leaves display a rich, healthy green from top to bottom, maintaining excellent posture throughout the day without signs of stress or nutrient imbalance. Everything feels incredibly balanced. The stems have become thick enough to support future flower weight, while the internodal spacing remains open enough to allow excellent airflow throughout the canopy. Nothing feels crowded. Nothing feels wasted. The plant simply looks comfortable. Comfortable with her feeding. Comfortable with her environment. Comfortable becoming exactly what her genetics intended. 💡 Lighting From Every Angle Although Pink Rosay isn't the tallest plant in the room, she's receiving approximately 1,000 PPFD across the canopy from the Future of Grow Black Series LED. That level of light provides more than enough energy to support vigorous flower production while allowing this compact phenotype to maximise every square centimetre of her canopy. Below the canopy, the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting continues adding another layer to the lighting strategy. As the flowers become larger and the canopy naturally thickens, those lower branches often receive significantly less light. The additional illumination helps maintain energy deeper into the plant, giving secondary flowering sites the opportunity to continue developing alongside the upper canopy. The true difference will reveal itself at harvest. But watching the room evolve under this combination of top and under-canopy lighting has been incredibly exciting. 💧 Hand Watering – Every Plant, Every Day Like the rest of the garden, Pink Rosay is now completely hand watered. It certainly takes more time. Every plant needs individual attention. Every watering means preparing nutrients, checking EC, adjusting pH and carefully delivering exactly what each lady needs. It's more work than automation. But it's also one of my favourite parts of the day. It forces me to slow down. To observe. To notice small changes before they become big ones. And honestly... I wouldn't have it any other way. Current feeding: • Terra Grow — 2 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • Power Buds — 1 ml/L • Green Sensation — 1 ml/L Maintaining: • EC: 1.95 mS/cm • pH: 5.8 Consistency continues to be one of the biggest reasons this garden keeps performing so well. 🌡️ Environment The environment remains stable, allowing Pink Rosay to focus entirely on producing flowers. Current conditions: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • Solution temperature: 21°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂: Approximately 529 ppm Healthy roots, stable temperatures and consistent environmental control continue allowing these genetics to express themselves naturally without unnecessary stress. 👀 Looking Ahead Over the next week I expect the pace of flower development to accelerate even further. The calyxes should begin stacking much more aggressively, individual flowers will gradually merge together into larger colas, and resin production should spread rapidly across the sugar leaves surrounding every bud site. The pistils will continue multiplying before eventually beginning their slow journey toward maturity later in flower. She's still far from finished. But every single day she's becoming more impressive. If she continues evolving like this, I genuinely believe she'll become one of the standout plants of this entire project. 🙏 Final Thoughts Pink Rosay continues proving that elegance doesn't need to shout. She has grown with remarkable balance from the very beginning, requiring very little intervention while rewarding that trust with beautiful structure, exceptional health and flowers that seem to become more attractive every single day. Her compact frame, brilliant white pistils and rapidly increasing layer of resin make her one of those plants that's impossible to walk past without stopping for another look. Some plants ask for attention. Others simply earn it. Pink Rosay has definitely earned hers. A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for these incredible genetics, Plagron for providing outstanding nutrition throughout the grow, Future of Grow for powering the garden with exceptional lighting, Lumiflora for bringing additional energy beneath the canopy, TrolMaster for maintaining precise environmental control, and to everyone following this journey here on GrowDiaries. Your support, encouragement and shared passion continue making this 8×8 Adventure something truly special. Until next week... Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💚

End of cultivation of a landrace, probably Manga Rosa, due to the smell and flavor, in addition to other characteristics (sativa, long-flowering, style of flowers). 3.7 liters (1 gallon) = 58 grams / 2.04 oz (flowers without branches) Using 120w lm301h-evo, together with another plant in the same environment. Last week just water, two small flushes, to clean the soil a little, but nothing excessive. 7 days drying, dark, well-ventilated environment, without direct wind. And now cure for at least a month, trying a little each week. I killed her when she was 93 days old, with 12 hours of light from the beginning, it seemed automatic. Because she is almost or completely sativa, perhaps another 2 weeks could be good for her, but I wanted a cultivation period of around 3 months, which was cool, but I believe that for a 90-day cultivation period, it is better to use some hybrid or indicates, as they develop faster. Sativas are aggressive in their expansionism and slow in flowering. Leaves and branches saved for later extraction, probably ice hash.

Hey guys . My cutting heating broke 3-4 weeks ago, which was fixed immediately and everything went wonderfully. Now, 3 days ago, the central heating broke down in the entire room, so that at night I only have temperatures of around 13 degrees :-( . One or the other lady is slowly starting to see a phosphorus blockage, as this can no longer be absorbed at temperatures below 15 degrees, like many other nutrients :-( . A friend looked at the heating yesterday and came to the conclusion that a real company had to do it, which is by no means possible for a stranger to enter my room. I quickly ordered heating mats for all the boxes so that the ladies could at least get warm feet. That's all I have this winter full can do . Let's hope everything will be fine 🙏🏻. As soon as the heating mats are attached in the coming days, I will post them in the pictures. Now for the update. Despite the severe cold, the ladies are still doing well and have made good progres . The ladies only had to be watered once this week, each time with 1 l, because it absorbs the water very slowly because of the cold and I don't want to overwater it. I took every single plant in the pot to take a close look at their roots. These are snow white and look very healthy 🙏🏻. It was also the last time neem oil sprayed so that the last trips are finally gone. Otherwise everything was checked and a lot of planning was done, like I do with the heating mats. Since a friend had the same problem in one winter and the heating mats got 10 degrees plus on the pots, I am very confident that it will at least bring something for the last cold month 😃 🙏🏻. I'll start flowering tomorrow by switching to 12 / 12 h because the ladies mustn't get too high because the small flowering tent is only 160 cm high :-) until then have fun and stay healthy 🙏🏻 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this strain at : Clearwater Seeds Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

As soon as I can get back into my google account I'll upload the pictures from Germination, again sorry for any inconveniences and I know some of you probably like yeah alright mate, lol I ain't got nothing to prove to anyone I grow my medicine for me and that's it I just thought I'd start uploading on here and got asked to participate in a competition for Divine Seeds, and me not having the Germination and weeks before pictures I probably will be disqualified. But I'll still continue to upload on here and try to get back into the Gmail account to retrieve the pictures during Germination and weeks 1 to 3.

Second week, everything is going well, lst adjusment and light defoliation

We are starting the cultivation of a new, fast-growing strain Creamy Beast Turbo Feminized from Seeds Mafia. The seed was germinated in a paper towel and sprouted within 24 hours. Afterward, we carefully planted it in a 1.6-liter pot filled with a specially prepared soil mix: 50% soil, 10% perlite, and 35% coco substrate. The daytime temperature is 28°C, nighttime temperature is 21°C, and the humidity is maintained at 65%. The light schedule is set to 18/8. A big thank you to Seeds Mafia for providing the seeds, we're excited to see how it develops!

unreal 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 despite the high temperatures, it's incredible❤️
