Lots of LST this week, and as always, from the moment I turned on the autopots, they start flying. The recover on the topping and fimming is finally over, from now on I'll just give them another week and flip. the jungle is coming

Dane, We all should help one another. Human beings are like that. We should live by each other’s happiness - not by each other’s misery. We don’t want to hate and despise one another, share the Joint. And mother earth is rich and can provide for everyone. We can Grow enough Happiness, In this paradise, there is room for everyone. We only exist to bring joy into the world and The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. Grow High and Give the world A smile. At the end we own nothing more then all our memories, lets make them amazing for everyone, nothing to loose only everything to win. A last kiss goodby, a second one, softer and long as a sign, that you are woth it. That Everyone worth who loved and give. Enought Hippie Talk, now have a nice day and an even better grow, thx for watching by. colour change sets slowly in i need to find out some timelapssettings with gopro.

Hello Growmies, We’re at week 15, and our Epic Buzz is showing some serious gains. The plant has been swelling so much that it's barely managing to hold itself up. An inspection reveals a coat of trichomes adorning the surface, with calyxes continuing to expand noticeably. It's as if each day brings a new level of plumpness to the buds, pushing the boundaries of what seemed possible just a week ago. From the images, we can observe the heavy load the stems are carrying. The top colas are thriving with density, their surfaces a landscape of rich, sticky trichomes, the kind that promise potency and depth. While the overall structure of the plant leans heavily, a testament to the weight it bears, there's an elegance to this droop, speaking to the fullness it's achieving. In terms of care, there's a significant change in our approach – no more PK 13/14. We've seen the best of what it can do, and now it's time to let pure, reverse osmosis water do the talking. This shift will ensure that we're not overloading the plant with nutrients and will help us to start the flushing process gently, easing into the final stages of flowering. The result of this can be seen in the leaves that are starting to yellow, a natural progression indicating that the plant is consuming the last of its nutrient reserves. Meanwhile, the roots, those unseen heroes, continue to draw up the necessary sustenance, fuelling this impressive final push. We’re now on the precipice of full maturity, where each day counts double. I'm keeping a close eye, ensuring the reservoir stays topped up every few days to keep her hydrated without causing undue stress. As we approach harvest, it's a balancing act of watchfulness and patience. The once-dominant aroma now fills the space with a subtler, sweeter scent – a prelude to the bounty that awaits. I’ll keep tweaking the environment, making sure our lady finishes strong. Stay lifted, Salokin.

Day 58 - Adding Big Bud Coco to the nute mix, seems that it's doing its job 😁 (Yes, I need a bigger closet 😅) Keep on growing 🙏😋 Day 63 - Haf some problems with my EC pen the last days, it wasn't clean so I overfeed a little bit but I noticed almost immediately so I've cleaned it and re-done the nute solution. Just a few tips of Gelato's leaves were burnt, nothing to worry about. I think 4 weeks from now and the Purple Lemonade will be ready for harvest, so other 5 days of Big Bud and then I'll switch to Overdrive for the final boost before ripen and flush 🙏

2/14: Decreased distance between the lights and canopy. Let the maximum swell commence! 2/16: Fed today..increased sugars/carbs. This was probably the last feeding with Beastie Bloomz..switching to Cha Ching at next feed and cutting back on the One.

After her intitial trimming , i could see the decent amount of heavy looking buds for the 1st time . I am amazed at her feel and smell too. She has a few days left to dry i think and i know a few weeks in a jar would leave her a champion grow. I am impressed as hell with the strain and it will be in my must do again list for sure. Cannot wait to smoke her delights. I have a sample bud to play with ( in pics) last sample nearly knocked me over and that was a lot earlier in the flowering cycle too !!!.

Switched all plants in this tent to 12/12 mostly because i need to know the sex of these plants. So far nothing but it could take a bit- the GWS are autos and loving the switch. Otherwise not too much to report back on this week. jan 12 still no sign on sex yet

I saw some Thrips on the plant, i will be getting a pesticide for them, shouldn’t be causing a lot of problems other than a bit of “snail trail” and yellowing. I watered a gallon with the above nutrients. Water pH 6.5 Water runoff pH 6.3 I checked the ppm for the first time, water was 855 runoff was 1010, which means there is salt buildup around the roots, i will flush it next watering. Buds are growing well, no issues with growth other than the yellowing of the leaves.

👑 Godfather OG – Pheno B Week 10 | She Knows What She Wants 👑🌿🔥 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And this girl... She just keeps shining. She keeps growing. She keeps asking for more. And somehow, while she's constantly telling me: "I want more!" she's showing me absolutely no signs that she's unhappy. No obvious deficits. No drama in the flowers. No collapse. No hesitation. Just growth. Beautiful growth. 😂👑 Godfather OG Pheno B has become one of those plants that I genuinely enjoy walking up to because every time I look at her, I see something I like. She's dense. She's compact for her structure. She's beautifully green. Her flowers are developing wonderfully. And she has this unmistakable personality that says: "Keep it coming. I'm not finished yet." 😂🌿👑 So this week, once again... the spotlight belongs to her. 🌱 Week 10 – Still On Her Way to Heaven I'm honestly not completely sure where this girl is going. 😂 But I like where she's going. Very much. Every week, she seems to become a little more impressive. The plant is continuing to develop those beautiful flowering structures, and there's a real sense now that she's settling into her own final form. She's not trying to become her sister. She's not trying to become another plant in the room. She's simply becoming Godfather OG Pheno B. And I really like what I'm seeing. There's something very satisfying about watching a phenotype gradually reveal itself. At the beginning, you have an idea. Then the plant grows. Then she branches. Then she flowers. And eventually you start thinking: "Okay... now I see who you are." And with this girl, I'm definitely starting to see it. 🍃 That Beautiful Green One of the things I really love about her right now is the colour. That beautiful, healthy green is still such a strong part of her identity. And what's particularly interesting is how similar the overall colour expression is becoming compared with her sister. They're different plants. Different structures. Different personalities. Different ways of approaching the same environment. But there is still that family resemblance. You can look at them and think: Yep. Those two belong together. And then you look closer... and realize how differently they've interpreted that same genetic potential. That's the magic of phenotypes. Same family. Different story. And Pheno B is writing a very beautiful one. 🌸 The Flowers Are Becoming Serious And now... the flowers. This is where things are getting really exciting. The bud formation is becoming increasingly defined, and there's a beautiful density developing throughout the plant. She's no longer just carrying flowering sites. She's building flowers. Real structure. Real volume. Real character. And the photographs make that particularly obvious. The individual flowers are becoming easier to distinguish, while the surrounding foliage is creating that beautiful contrast between green leaves and developing floral structures. She's got a lot happening. And I love it. There's something about a plant reaching this stage where you stop looking at individual branches and start seeing the whole thing as one coordinated flowering structure. That's where she is heading now. And honestly? She's looking fantastic. 👑 Demanding Doesn't Mean Unhappy Now let's talk about her appetite. Because this girl is still demanding. 😂🍽️ She continues asking for more. And she's certainly one of the plants that makes me pay attention to how much she's consuming. But here's what I really like about the situation: She's not showing me obvious signs that she's struggling. She's not throwing up warning flags everywhere. She's growing. She's flowering. She's maintaining that beautiful colour. She's developing density. She's continuing to progress. So her appetite is simply part of her personality. Some plants are happy with a little. Some plants want seconds. Godfather OG Pheno B apparently wants to know whether there's dessert. 😂👑🍰 And honestly... if she keeps looking like this, I'm not going to complain about her appetite. She's putting those resources to work. 💡 She's Catching Photons Like She Means It And once again, we have to talk about the invisible workers in this room: photons. Every day, the lights come on. Photons begin moving through the canopy. And this girl is ready. She's got a substantial amount of healthy foliage positioned throughout her structure, giving her plenty of opportunity to intercept that light. The photons arrive. The leaves capture what they can. And the plant uses that captured energy to support everything happening inside her. Growth. Maintenance. Development. Flower formation. All those beautiful things we're able to see with our eyes are connected to something we can't see at all. Light energy. And Godfather OG Pheno B looks like she's taking full advantage of it. 💡🌿 She's not just sitting underneath the lights. She's using them. ☀️ A Three-Dimensional Canopy This is also where I really appreciate the lighting philosophy we've been using throughout the 8×8. The main Black Series LEDs provide the primary overhead illumination. But the canopy isn't a flat surface. It's a three-dimensional environment. Leaves are positioned at different heights. Branches move through different levels. Flowers develop at different angles. And that's where the additional inner and lower-canopy lighting becomes interesting. We're trying to get useful photons into places that naturally receive less direct illumination from above. Not simply: "More light everywhere." But rather: "How can we make better use of the space this plant has created?" And Pheno B has created some beautiful space. She's dense. She's compact. She's structured. And she's carrying flowers throughout that structure. So those photons have plenty of work to do. 😂💡🌿 🌿 Dense, But Still Her Own Shape One thing I particularly like this week is that she's becoming denser without losing her identity. She's not a completely flat canopy. She's not a wall. She's not trying to imitate anybody else. She's got her own architecture. And now that the flowers are becoming more developed, that architecture is becoming even easier to appreciate. The structure she created earlier in the run is now supporting the flowering phase. That's one of the most rewarding parts of watching a plant through an entire cycle. You see the decisions she made earlier... and eventually you get to see what those decisions become. Godfather OG Pheno B built this structure. Now she's filling it. And she's doing a beautiful job. 💨 Environment – Let the System Work As always, the environment remains an important part of the bigger picture. We're continuing with the same overall room strategy rather than constantly changing things around individual plants. The room is sitting around: 🌡️ Day temperature: ~29°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~25°C 💧 Relative humidity: ~60% ⚗️ pH: ~6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 💦 Solution temperature: ~25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~26°C 💨 CO₂: ~639 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 💧 Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h And once again, the important part isn't simply looking at the numbers. It's looking at what the plant does with them. And Pheno B keeps telling us: "I'm good. Keep going." So that's exactly what we're doing. ⚗️ Feeding – She Keeps Asking for More The shared flowering nutrition strategy remains: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ Lemon Kick / pH adjustment as required The current solution remains around pH 6.0 and approximately 2.0 mS/cm EC. And yes... she still looks like she'd happily eat more. 😂 She's one of the phenotypes where I really notice the difference between simply providing nutrition and watching how the plant actually responds to it. She's consuming. She's growing. She's developing. She's maintaining her colour. And she's continuing to build flowers. That's why I'm interested in her. She's demanding... but she's also performing. And there's a big difference. 🌸 The Sister Comparison I also really enjoy looking at Pheno B alongside her sister. Godfather OG Pheno A has her own personality. She has been demanding. She's hungry. She's intense. She's got that Queen energy. 😂👑 But Pheno B has a slightly different expression. She's demanding too... but somehow she feels more composed about it. She doesn't seem interested in making a dramatic announcement. She just keeps growing and quietly says: "More, please." 😂 And then she goes back to work. That's the beautiful thing about having both phenotypes in the same room. The environmental baseline stays similar. The genetic expression changes. And suddenly those differences become visible. You don't have to imagine the comparison. They're right there beside each other. Two sisters. Two interpretations. Two stories. 📸 Behind the Lens I really like the photographs of this girl this week. The wider shots show the overall structure. The closer photographs bring out those developing flowers. And the combination of green foliage and increasingly defined buds makes her particularly photogenic right now. There are plants where the camera has to work hard to find the story. This isn't one of them. 😂📸 You point the camera at her and... there's the story. Flowers. Structure. Leaves. Light. Density. And that beautiful colour. The closer you look, the more details start appearing. That's one of my favourite things about documenting this adventure. The plants are changing gradually. But photographs freeze a moment. Then you put two weeks beside each other... and suddenly you realize how much has happened. 🔬 She's Becoming Very Easy to Recognize At this point, I don't think I'd have much trouble picking this phenotype out of the room. There's a recognizable character developing. The structure. The colour. The density. The flowering pattern. The way she carries herself. It's all starting to come together. That's what phenotype hunting is really about for me. It's not simply finding the plant that grows the biggest. It's discovering those little combinations of characteristics that make one plant stand apart from another. And Pheno B is definitely standing apart. She's becoming herself. 🌿 No Need to Force Her And once again, I'm not interested in forcing this girl to become something she isn't. She's already telling us what she wants to do. She's growing. She's building. She's staying beautiful. She's consuming resources. She's catching photons. She's filling her space. So my job is mostly to observe and make sure the environment continues supporting that process. Sometimes the best cultivation decision is intervention. Sometimes it's adjustment. And sometimes... it's simply: "She's doing great. Leave her alone." 😂🌱 This feels like one of those weeks. Let her work. 💡 Photons, Leaves, Flowers... The Whole Chain I think this is also one of the most beautiful things about the way we're documenting the 8×8. We can talk about photons as an abstract concept. Invisible particles of light moving through the room. But then you look at a plant like Godfather OG Pheno B. You see the leaves. You see the flowers. You see the growth. And suddenly that invisible process becomes very tangible. Light enters the system. The plant captures it. The plant processes it. And eventually... we see the result. Those beautiful flowers sitting there under the lights. That's the part I love. The science is happening whether we can see it or not. And we're simply documenting the visible consequences. 💡➡️🌿➡️🌸 🔮 Where Is She Going? Honestly... I don't know. 😂 And that's exactly why I'm enjoying it. She's on her way somewhere. Heaven? The moon? The top of the flowering mountain? 😂👑🌿 I have absolutely no idea. But I like the direction. I like the structure. I like the colour. I like the density. I like the flowers. And I really like the personality. So let's see where she takes us. There's still plenty of story left to write. 💭 Final Thoughts – Keep Shining, Girl Week 10. And Godfather OG Pheno B continues to impress me. She's demanding. She's hungry. She keeps asking for more. But she's giving me absolutely no reason to believe she's unhappy with the environment. Quite the opposite. She's growing beautifully. She's maintaining that gorgeous green. She's developing dense, well-defined flowers. She's making excellent use of the space around her. And she's catching every photon she can get her leaves on. 😂💡🌿 She's not trying to become her sister. She's not trying to become the biggest plant in the room. She's not trying to prove anything. She's simply becoming herself. And I like her. I really like her. There's something about this phenotype that keeps pulling my attention back. Every time I look at her, I find another reason to smile. So let's not rush her. Let's not force her. Let's keep watching. Let's keep learning. And let's see where this beautiful girl decides to take us. Because wherever she's going... I like the direction. 👑🌿🌸🔥 🙏 Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 This project continues to be such an incredible learning experience. Twelve different genetic stories. One shared environment. One room. And so many completely different personalities. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a place to document these journeys and share the experience with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Godfather OG genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover what these phenotypes can become. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the room. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for keeping the photons flying through this jungle. 💡🌿 Thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into the inner and lower areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us keep the environment consistent behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person who stops by to watch the girls develop. It genuinely means a lot. And Godfather OG Pheno B? She's still here. Still hungry. Still demanding. Still catching photons. Still growing. Still building. Still beautiful. And apparently... still on her mysterious journey toward heaven. 😂👑🌿 I don't know exactly where she's going. But I know one thing. I like what I see. So let's give this girl the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's keep watching her story unfold. And let's see just how far this beautiful, hungry, green little powerhouse wants to go. 👑💡🌿🌸🔥 Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿👑📸

****DIVINE SEEDS ***** *****OPIUM***** Sponsored grow ***DIVINE SEEDS ***** Week 11 6/16-23 Opium Loves the outside. She is tall and lanky, towering over the other outside girls: Fractal, Lemon Cake and Drizzle. All are showing yellowing leaves so everyone is now getting nutrients with feedings. I saw a Japanese beetle on my Lemon Cake and some small holes in the leaves so I added 1/2 tsp neem to the feed solution 6/12. Also started using fish & kelp. I'm still watering 1 gal per plant when I feed 2x/week. With the heat and humidity, I water daily but do not feed daily. Nutrients: TPS1 15ml/gal @4 gal =60ml Signal 1.5 ml Cal mag 10ml @4 gal Recharge ½ tsp/gal =10ml Kelp & fish GS plant foods 1/4c /gal @ 4 gal =1c Neem ½ tsp (for Japanses beetles)  Ph5.7  PPM 1414  Solution Temp 85  Outside temp 92f 6/19 Opium had a Spa day. Hair cut. All large umbrella fans were removed. Since she is in flower, she didnt need excess vegetation. This defoliation reveals true sativa form. There are 6-8inch stretches between nodes. I added a 6 ft support pole since we've had thunderstorms with high winds. I didn't want her majestic crown to snap off. I water daily and feed 2x per week now. *****OPIUM*****
