final weeks flowering

Buds are glistening now with an incredibly strong smell inside the tent. My rhino carbon filter manages to sort that thought :). 1 nanner developed on 1 bud site but as I'm so close to harvest, I'm not worried. Plants have had their final nute feed and next will be plain water for a few days Will be starting 4 x new autoflower grow next week

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno A Week 9 | Welcome to My Little Jungle 🌿🔥 Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And honestly... I think I'm starting to feel like Tarzan. Walking through the room. Moving between the plants. Looking underneath the canopy. Checking the flowers. Stopping every few minutes because another plant catches my eye. 😂🌿 This grow has become its own little jungle, and I'm having an absolute blast watching it develop. Because the more these plants mature, the more obvious one thing becomes: they may share the same room, but they certainly don't share the same personality. And Cash Express Pheno A is a perfect example. She's growing in essentially the same environment as the Blueberry Muffins. Same room. Same general environmental strategy. Same lighting philosophy. Same irrigation system. Same feeding approach. And yet... look at her. She's doing her own thing. And she's doing it beautifully. 🌱 Week 9 – She's Standing Tall in Her Own Way Cash Express Pheno A has never been one of the giants of the room. And that's okay. Her story was never supposed to be about becoming the tallest plant. Her story is about what she can create with the structure she has. And right now, that structure is becoming incredibly impressive. She's compact. She's well defined. She's developing strong flowering branches. And more importantly, the flowers themselves are starting to become the real stars of the show. When I look at her now, I don't see a small plant. I see a plant that's becoming very efficient with the space she's been given. And that's something I really appreciate. 🌸 The Flowers Are Starting to Speak This week, the flower structure is what immediately catches my attention. The buds are becoming much more pronounced, and those pistils... Wow. They're beautiful. We're seeing these thick, bright white pistils with that subtle yellowish/golden tone, and they stand out beautifully against the surrounding foliage. It's one of those little characteristics that makes this phenotype instantly recognizable when you compare her with the rest of the room. Different plant. Different flower expression. Different personality. And this is exactly why I love taking the time to photograph these girls individually. The macro photographs reveal things that you simply don't appreciate from across the room. You can see the individual pistils. The developing flower structure. The little sugar leaves beginning to surround the buds. The early signs of resin development. And slowly, what started as a collection of tiny flowering sites is becoming something that actually looks like a proper flower. She's getting there. And she's looking fantastic doing it. 🚂 Small Frame – Serious Flower Potential This girl continues proving something that we've already learned several times during this adventure: Plant height isn't the same thing as plant potential. She's not towering over everybody. She doesn't need to. She's using her available space differently. The branches are carrying developing flowers, and the structure is becoming increasingly easy to read. There's a certain confidence to her now. Almost like she's saying: "I don't need to be the biggest plant here." "Just watch what I do." 😄 And honestly? I'm watching. Very closely. 🌿 Same Room – Completely Different Expression This is probably one of the most fascinating parts of the entire 8×8 Adventure. Take Cash Express. Now look at the Blueberry Muffins. Same general environment. Same flowering schedule. Similar nutritional strategy. Yet look at the differences. Different leaf structure. Different branching. Different flower formation. Different density. Different pistil appearance. Different overall architecture. This is where the experiment becomes really valuable. Because if I were growing only one plant, I might look at Cash Express and simply say: "She's compact." But because she's growing beside eleven other cultivars, we can actually see the difference. The environment is providing the baseline. The genetics are providing the personality. And Cash Express has quite a personality. 💨 Structure, Airflow & Flowering Space As the flowers continue developing, I'm increasingly interested in maintaining good movement through the plant. At this stage, the goal isn't simply to produce as much foliage as possible. We want the plant to have enough healthy leaves to support flowering while maintaining sensible spacing throughout the canopy. Good airflow becomes increasingly important as flowers become larger and denser. We're trying to avoid unnecessary stagnant areas inside the canopy and keep the overall environment comfortable for the plant. That's one of the reasons the cleaning and canopy management we've been doing throughout the room matters. It's not about stripping plants because a certain week number says we should. It's about looking at what each plant is doing and responding accordingly. And Cash Express is telling us that her structure is working very nicely. So we're not trying to reinvent her. We're simply helping her continue doing what she's already doing well. 💡 Let the Photons Do Their Job She's also a great example of why I like thinking about the canopy as a three-dimensional space. It's not just about what happens directly underneath the main light. There are flowers positioned at different heights and angles throughout the plant. The room's additional inner and under-canopy lighting helps bring useful light into areas that would otherwise receive less. That gives these compact plants another advantage. Instead of trying to solve everything through aggressive defoliation, we can combine: 💡 Good lighting 🌿 Sensible canopy structure 💨 Air movement 🌡️ Environmental stability ✂️ Selective cleaning It's all about creating a balanced system. And Cash Express is certainly taking advantage of it. ⚗️ Nutrition – Still Holding Steady The nutrition programme remains unchanged this week. We're continuing with: Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Plagron Pure Zym – 1 ml/L pH adjustment as required The current solution remains around pH 6.0 and approximately 2.0 mS/cm EC. And honestly, there's no reason to start changing things simply because we're excited about what we're seeing. She's developing. She's flowering. She's maintaining herself beautifully. So we're keeping the strategy steady and allowing the plant to put that nutrition toward what matters now: flowers. The plants don't need us constantly changing the recipe. Sometimes consistency is the most important input we can provide. 🌡️ Environment – Stable Enough to Let Her Work The room continues to provide a stable environment shared with the other flowering plants. We're currently around: 🌡️ Day temperature – 29°C 🌙 Night temperature – 25°C 💧 Relative humidity – 60% ⚗️ pH – ~6.0 ⚡ EC – ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂ – ~693 ppm 💡 Light schedule – 12/12 ? Pot size – 15 L 💦 Watering – approximately 1.2–1.3 L/plant/24h We're also maintaining the additional lighting strategy throughout the room, including the inner and under-canopy lighting. The important thing for me isn't finding one magical number. It's keeping the whole system working together. Light. Temperature. Humidity. CO₂. Nutrition. Root-zone conditions. Water availability. They're all pieces of the same puzzle. And right now, Cash Express appears very comfortable with the picture we've created. 🔬 The Personality of Cash Express Pheno A If I had to describe her in just a few words now? Compact. Structured. Beautiful. She's not trying to dominate the room. She's not trying to become the tallest. She's simply standing there and showing us what she can do. And that's actually one of the things I find most rewarding about this plant. She has her own identity. The flower structure is becoming distinctive. The pistils have their own look. The plant architecture is easy to recognize. And every week, that identity becomes stronger. That's the beauty of watching a phenotype from seed all the way through flowering. At the beginning, you're basically meeting a stranger. Then slowly... you start learning her personality. 📸 Behind the Lens And this week? The camera had a very good time. 😂📸 The close-up photographs really highlight the developing flowers. Those thick white pistils almost look like little fireworks coming out of the buds. The subtle warmer/yellowish tones give the flowers a beautiful contrast compared with some of the other plants in the room. And then the wider photographs bring everything back into perspective. You can see the structure. The branches. The distribution of flowers. The compact architecture. The way she's building her own little world inside the room. This is exactly why I love documenting the grow this way. The camera slows me down. It makes me stop. Look. Observe. And sometimes discover something I completely missed five minutes earlier. 🌿 Tarzan in the 8×8 Jungle 😂 And I have to admit something... I'm having way too much fun with this run. 😂🌿 Walking around the tent between twelve different plants, checking flowers, moving leaves, looking underneath the canopy, photographing different angles... Sometimes I genuinely feel like I'm walking through a tiny jungle. Tarzan with a camera. 😂📸🌴 But that's also what makes this adventure so enjoyable. I'm not just trying to get to harvest. I'm enjoying the process. I'm learning. I'm adapting. I'm watching what works. I'm watching what doesn't. And every plant teaches me something different. That's probably the biggest lesson of this entire run so far. You can have a plan. But the plants will always have something to add to it. 🔮 Looking Ahead Now we're getting into a very exciting part of the flowering cycle. The flowers are established. The structure is clear. And the next phase is about watching those flowers develop more mass and density. Over the coming week, I'll be watching for: 🌸 Continued flower swelling ? Further development of those beautiful pistils 💎 Increasing resin production 🌿 Healthy foliage supporting the flowers 💨 Good airflow throughout the structure 📈 Increasing bud density and definition And, as always, I'm not going to force the plant into a predetermined schedule. If she needs something, we'll respond. If she's happy... we let her work. That's the beauty of this adventure. 💭 Final Thoughts – Let's Make Her Shine Cash Express Pheno A may not be the tallest plant in the 8×8. She may not be the biggest. She may not have the largest footprint. But she's becoming one of those plants that you can't help but stop and look at. Because the more you look... the more you see. The structure. The flowers. Those beautiful thick white pistils. The subtle warmer tones. The developing resin. The way she's filling her space. She's not asking for attention. She's earning it. And that's exactly what I want to do with this week's update. Give her the spotlight. Let her shine. Let her show everybody what this particular Cash Express phenotype can do. Because she's doing something beautiful. And we're still only watching the beginning of the final chapter. 🙏 Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. This project has become such an incredible learning experience for me. Twelve different cultivars. One room. One shared environment. And twelve completely different stories unfolding in front of us. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document this journey and share the experience with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Cash Express genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover what this phenotype can become. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the plants throughout the adventure. Thank you to Future of Grow for providing the Black Series lighting powering this jungle. And thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the inner and lower areas of the canopy. And finally... thank you to everyone watching. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by just to see how the girls are doing. You're part of this adventure too. I'm learning every week. I'm adapting every week. And I'm having an absolute blast doing it. So here's to another week in the jungle. 🌿😂 And here's to this beautiful little Cash Express Pheno A. She may be compact... but she's got serious flower power. 🚂🌸🔥 Let's make her shine. Let's let her do her thing. And let's see what this little powerhouse brings us next. Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿🚂🔥

roots start to grow

Woche 10 | Tag 64 - 69 Der Run geht langsam in die Zielgerade und die Unterschiede zwischen den Genetiken werden jetzt richtig sichtbar 😄 Klima diese Woche ziemlich stabil gehalten: 🌡️ 22–24°C 💧 43–50% rF 📈 VPD meist zwischen 1.3–1.6 Die Purple Punch entwickelt sich zu einem absoluten Frostmonster. Keine riesigen Buds, aber brutal kompakt und steinhart. Genau die Art von Blüten die später im Grinder komplett eskalieren 😅 Die Runtz überrascht mich immer mehr. Viele Budsites, starke Herbstfarben und richtig schöne Struktur. Die Arme werden immer dicker und sie wirkt jeden Tag reifer. Hyperion und Blueberry haben ebenfalls sehr feste Buds entwickelt. Die Blueberry sieht zwar etwas wild aus, produziert aber trotzdem ordentlich Harz und dichte Blüten. Die GMO hat weiterhin die größten Buds im Raum, dafür etwas luftiger aufgebaut als die anderen Pflanzen. Dafür bringt sie richtig Charakter und eine Menge Frost mit. Die Trichome werden inzwischen richtig milchig, aber es sind noch genug klare Köpfe vorhanden. Noch etwas Geduld 😏 Außerdem habe ich angefangen mit verschiedenen Perspektiven und Makroshots zu experimentieren. Macht richtig Spaß die Pflanzen jetzt in dieser Phase festzuhalten 📸

-Esta semana simplemente las he regado un par de veces con un litro y medio cada una. -A una de las GG ya estoy haciéndole el flush final -Empiezan a enfermarse las hojas. Puede ser falta de calcio, potasio, magnesio...no lo se. Les he echado uns buena dosis de potasio y las que están más afectadas les he echado sgua limpia y un poco de potasio. -una de las GG le falta poco para cortar. El resto les quedará poco menos de un mes

Well another week closer to harvest not sure when that will be , could be 2 weeks to 4 weeks all on her. But shes going. Tell next week , happy growing.

Estamos aqui começando mais uma semana, algumas folhas apareceram manchadinhas e com uns buraquinhos. Pode ter sido por causa da queda da lampada ensima delas... Folhas muitos grandes e desenvolvimento muito bom A piquena esta crescendo bem,muito forte e linda com belas folhas. Ira crescer para cima reta sem nenhuma tecnica.

So heres my germination method. Soak/shake seeds in 3% h202 solution for a few minutes and let sit until tiny bubbles form on seed coat. Rinsed in clean rain water. Then placed in HPO's GREEN-SUPREME used as seed soak solution. With a small amount of ANTI-MATTER for enzymes. Soaked 12hrs (mostly I just soak a few hrs) Straight into Gro-Dirt Super Starter soil. Watered seeds in gently with diluted DARK-MATTER solution to get the mycorrhizal species attached as soon as possible. Once they came up, 18-24hrs later, sprayed gently with a mix of GREEN-SUPREME & RHIZO-MOJO Just a small pinch of both in a 1ltr spray bottle. All this was done in a dark warm place on a heat mat. In a humidity dome.

04/01/21 Amazing colours have came through during cure showing off her red and purple! And she’s frosty all over and tastes like a tropical dream!mango pineapple tones with a side of lime! Would defiantly recomiod Update; colours are coming through got some amazing hues just uploaded some vids 😍 Got the green pheno on both???! But it’s but either way I love this strain tastes a lot like the black cream auto I’ve done of sweet seeds too. So many colours in the bud and the flavour is immense throughout! Tastes like tropical mango and slight pineapple with a lovely pungent limeish taste it’s so nice and the high sent me to sleep when I tested the result! Just had to lay there and close my eyes and enjoy it and woke up to the end of my film ahahah would defiantly recommend Anyone growing very easy and amazing results!

Drying conditions are about 17°C and 52% rh. drying for about 8 days. after that directly into jars for curing with humidity packs.

here we go here a lil vid of in the garden the 5x5 with our 4 photo periods we have 2 cindy 99 in 8lt pots 1 cindy in a 2.5lt pot along with there growmie orange 🍊 cream 🍦 also in 8 litre pot. these are all feed on nonw other than the best on the market thats @indica.nutrients @danindicanutrients some amazing line they have not ever disappointed and now with all the testimonials📝 rolling in from across the globe 🌍🗺️🌐🌍 its blowing up 🌋 in a good way growers across the planet are seeing 1st hand results and they are loving it. with a range of feed schedules to choose from with 1 part for soil that (MESSIAH ting going on 😏

I have nice hairy buds coming Some plants are out of sync, autos are flowering faster than the photoperiodic

Went through a heatwave 6/9 - 6/11 Plants got a little stressed and twisted, everyone pulled through. 6/10/2019 - Installed 240W more LED. Run new panels at half for now. 6/11/2019 - Started using CalMag. 6/12/2019 - Site 1 plant shows signs of improved vitality, growing a very deformed set of true leafs. Plants looking better overall. 6/15/2019 - Switched out soda bottle accumulator with SodaStream bottles. Safely handles higher pressure, cap ensures better closure. Site 5 looks sad. Drooping, one yellowed leaf. Doesn't make sense, same nutrients as all other sites. Maybe underwatering, therefore nutrient deficient. Adjust nozzle angles for better coverage. Check back tomorrow 6/16/2019 - Site 1 starts putting roots into the chamber. Count 8. Strong showing! Site 5 perks up. Diagnosis looks to be correct. Plumbed in drainage pumps. Programming done, just need more flexible tubing. 6/17/2019 - Holy hell. Drove all over the city today looking for silicone tubing for drainage. 3 pet stores, 2 aquarium stores, 2 hardware stores and still no luck. Got some vinyl as a temporary fix and ordered silicone on Amazon. Drainage pumps run for about 15 seconds every ~1 hour. Also picked up a 6" X 24" Phresh Carbon Filter and some 3.5" net trellis that will come in handy in the next two weeks. Planning on upping nutrients by 10% tomorrow to ~700 PPM. Site 1 has dropped so many roots and is growing hairs, expecting explosive growth in the next days. 6/18/2019 - Pulled back on the nutrients to 550 PPM because I noticed some downward curled tips. Do not want to flush in an aeroponic system if I can avoid it. I topped 7 plants and FIM'd 1 that was just barely large enough. Tied down the fan leaves the largest two plants to open up the new growth sites. Plan to allow everything to grown a few nodes and top again, then SCRoG. Hopefully lower new growth foliage bulks in that time and I can sex these plants from trimmings.

Well guys she had a deep flush of rain water put at least 100 ltrs through her till her ppm dropped to 100 gna hit her again in a couple days for a full deep flush till she runs at 37ppm I know drastic but I push them always to.the hilt to make sure there ain't a hint of chemical feed in sight shes starting to stick and fill out nicely after flushing probably cause she has to rely in her own supply for now but she never seemed to yellow out at all throughout any of her leaves sometimes they do sometimes they don't so I know there ain't any nutes in there so I'm not worried just dont want to overdo her want to take her just right not to much couch locking just a nice get on with the day kinda high is what I'm after so dont want her pushing for to long hopefully a week or two shall do the trick

Omg. I can’t wait to chop this thing

Chopping soon....

Hi everyone!So i had to rearrange the whole thing because i was doing it all wrong.To be clear 3 gorilla glue and two wedding cheesecakes and in the smaller pot a haze that was added later by a friend of mine.The smallest gg was born a week later so that explains the size i guess. cheers!
