Hi guys do I. On day 35! 5 weeks know from switching lights! Time has flown by, im getting excited now, there stinking!, there swelling, the pistils are browning lol so far so good. I do think I have a good 5 weeks more 3 weeks nutrients and 2 week flush 🤷‍♂️ 1st time running photo seeds so not sure lol these are a so say 45-50 day flower, but thats 2 weeks and i know that's not going to happen lol. Let me no what your thoughts are people, many thanks and keep growing 👊💪😊 hi guys I hope your all well, so I'm on day 38 now from switch, leafs look a bit sad today as I have only feed them nutes once this week on sunday and I fed them molasses on Tuesday but with the heat they are thirsty! Just gave them there last feed of nutrients for week 8 on schedule so next week is last week of nutes before im going to try shogun dragon force for the last 2 weeks instead then a 5 day just water at the end. Its getting closer and I won't miss using 7 part nutes 🤣🤣🤣 happy growing guys.

The Ak2.0 are flowering up nice. Cycle nutrients seem to be feeding them nice. Girls are large, will give them more wattage next run. Cmd lights were just not cutting it. Will use the hid for vegging like I always did.

The flagship of all my grow rooms, this is the strain you want to run into constant production I find strains the pack on the sugar, but will not bulk up and chunk up, in my option Seed Junky Genetics always delivers top notch seeds

Gran Turismo is really looking sharp! The leaves are a beautiful, dark green and it's growing so fast. I think it might be my favorite seedling – it's got this really strong stem, and it stands tall. I can tell it's gonna be a healthy plant when it grows up.

Day 28: Last night I had a real scare, I watered and by the end of the day she was drooping and looking very sick, there was no runoff at water so I feel I overwatered the little thing, thankfully this morning she has bounced back with great strength and this morning is looking healthier than ever! I'm noticing a few holes in leaves, a few spots on the leaves and a few very fine silk trails on the leaves, so I'm thinking she's got thrips 😣 next to impossible to get any pictures of the damage I'm talking about because I think I've caught the infection incredibly early, so today I'm picking up some Neem oil and I'll spray her completely at lights out , hopefully it is thrips and not spider mites because thrips this late in the grow wouldn't be too bad! If it's spidermites I'll be in a bit more trouble, thankfully flower has only JUST begun so I'm not so worried about a neem oil application at this time I'm going to let the soil dry out completely before watering again, I was dubious whether it was needed yesterday but the top inch was dry, I think I'll just wait until it's a couple of inches moving forwards Day 29: last night I drenched the leaves in diluted neem oil, I'm not seeing a lot of pest activity but there is some level, so since we're just starting to flower I decided now was the time just to blast anything that might be floating around, In ten days I'll do it again, maybe sooner if the buds are really getting going in that time Because of my overwatering scare the other day, I'm giving her another 24 hours to dry out deep into the pot, there's still a level of moisture in there and as of this morning the plant looks really healthy, really happy with how shes looking today, got 5 exposed tops which I believe will become the colas, 2 are the apex and on the same level and 3 lower ones are all on the same level. There are other potential Colas but they're hidden under the plant, I'll probable defoliate that side once the times right, unless they can break through in the next couple of days, which would be nice Day 29 update: (7 hours after lights on) opened the cabinet to find temps of 29 degrees c wasn't running extraction, soil is dry, but most importantly I noticed the top leaves praying for rain, I gave the soil a small amount (300ml) of distilled water and tap water , just to wet the soil enough to give another reason for the roots to spread through the pot, tomorrow I'll give another small water with feed and Humic acid just to top up her nutes and give her one last big hit of growth before she starts flowering properly, if we can trigger another growth spurt whilst she's still inbetween veg and flower, this is looking like a good first harvest! Day 29 Update (6 hours until lights off) following the water the plant has done her best to expose every inch of her leaves in light, she's bushier than ever and presumably getting ready to have a serious growth spurt, I watered around the far edge of the pot and let this pull through the soil, no run off because it was so little but, possibly a small feed of 1:1:1 tomorrow to top up nitrogen for any growth spurts planned ;) Day 29 Update (lights out) Today was an exceptional day for this girl, over the course of the day there's been some real developments! This evening she was foliar fed a mixture of 1:1:1 nutes and fulvic acid, a single drop in around 400ml of water, she should bounce back with an extra growth spurt with the extra nitrogen, on day 31 I will most likely be watering again with the same mixture to help push one last growth spurt before a flip to flower occurs and we move onto bloom nutes for the rest of the grow In 24 hours the fulvic acid should kick in and give one last growth spurt hopefully adding another node or two to the plant at the vest last moment, next photos i'm hoping will be a significant growth period if todays behaviour was anything to go by Day 31: Yesterday I squeezed in one last round of LST, the main stem cola was rising quite high above the rest of the canopy, I pulled that down out of the way and by the end of the day It had sorted itself out, I also spread out some of the other new cola sites to expose deeper into the plant to more light Yesterday I also watered with NPK 1:1:1 and Humic acid solution, as well as foliar fed with Bloom nutes and Humic acid again, this should help the plant through it's last growth spurt whilst allowing it to start creating flowers, today the soil will be left without water, possibly the next day too but I think it is ready for flowering to begin so I'm looking forwards to watering her with Bloom Nutes to get that process started well! Now that she's turning to flower i'm noticing the stems of each top are quite thin, I have a small fan on them constantly keeping them moving but I'm expecting to have to SCROG to provide all the support she needs, even if the stems thicken up in flower like I'm expecting, this will support the big buds I'm hoping for! Lot's a vertical growth starting the insides of the plant are starting to open up and there's very little leaf growth below the main canopy Day 31 - Whilst I watered yesterday with Nutes and Humic Acid, I'm spotting some very early signs of some flowering deficiencies, this isn't really a surprise as there has been hardly any nutrients added to the soil over the whole grow, so I've sprayed with the nutrient solution listed a move, the top of the soil was getting dry but not ready for a full water yet, just wet the topsoil through to help her transition to a higher quality nutrient, should start seeing some fairly decent growth from here on out! Day 32 - Today the soil was getting pretty dry, I diluted down my foliar feed mix a little and watered around 400ml of water with Humic, Fulvic, Bio Bloom and a few drops of 1:1:1, may have been a little too early but she's slightly showing some signs of deficiencies, foliar feeding has helped a little to keep these back but today I gave her the first feeding of specific bloom nutrients, should see her return to a healthy colour soon! She's starting to get quite tall as well, I think next few days we'll have some serious growth ongoing (as has become tradition) You can see from the images how her colour has gotten a bit lighter over the past few days, Foliar feeding has definitely slowed this and hopefully prepared her for a bigger dose of Nutrients, in 48 hours I'll be ready to water again this time with a heavier balance of nutes to really get things started for a healthy harvest Today or tomorrow she needs respraying with insecticides just to make sure nothing survived the early infestations and do ensure a pest free grow until the very end! Day 32 update: Today the flowers on what I expect will be the main 2 Colas have started forming, There's around 7 potential colas but 2 will be substantial if they're left long enough, hopefully tonight the nutrients kick in, but I'm considering another decent hit of nitrogen and bloom fert together, then water till flush, I think that will be 2-3 days off though, day 33: today she's looking all round healthier, the colours were good yesterday but today she's a much healthier shade of green for sure :D giving a decent feeding regime of flower nutes seems to have balanced her out nicely, I'm gonna leave watering today and let her dry out to give the roots another big push to grow, the other day I was digging down into the soil on the opposite side of the pot to the plant and found roots there, I'm really excited to see this girls root ball! Flowering is well on the way, HOPING for a Christmas harvest but I think it's going to be more new year when she's fully ready to be chopped, can't wait! I have pulled off 2 leaves today, they were starting to turn brown, I think the plant has cannibalised them, not because of a nutrient issue, because of a light issue, these leaves were completely shaded by the whole plant

One of them seems to be herming, but I am glad I didn't harvest early, because it seems to be frosting up heavily near the end. I am going to be vaporizing the bud anyway, so a few underdeveloped seeds wont be the worst. Did some defoliation as it was looking really cluttered. As of day 69, I am not noticing any milky/amber trichomes yet. I have read that this can be an 11-12 week plant.

🌿 Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B | Week 7 (Flower Week 4) 🌱 Small in Size, Huge in Character One of the things I've enjoyed most throughout this entire 8×8 Adventure has been watching two sisters grow side by side while expressing themselves in completely different ways. Same genetics. Same room. Same lighting. Same feeding program. Yet every week they continue reminding me that a phenotype is far more than a name on a seed packet. Frosted Guava Pheno B has never tried to become the biggest plant in the room. She simply became herself. Now, entering her fourth week of flowering, she's proving that elegance doesn't need size. Because what she lacks in height... She more than makes up for in beauty. 🌸 Week 4 Flower – Beauty Is Taking Centre Stage Standing at approximately 101 cm tall, Frosted Guava Pheno B remains one of the most compact Frosted Guava phenotypes in the room. Very little training has been needed throughout her life. Apart from some gentle Low Stress Training and the occasional leaf tuck to expose developing bud sites, she's been allowed to grow almost entirely according to her own natural architecture. Sometimes that's the best decision we can make as growers. Rather than forcing the plant into our vision, we simply help her become the best version of herself. And that's exactly what she's done. Her stretch has now almost completely finished, allowing her energy to move where it belongs. Into the flowers. ✨ A Plant That Simply Shines This week she's absolutely beautiful. It's difficult to describe any other way. The deep green foliage creates the perfect contrast against the explosion of bright white pistils that now cover nearly every flowering site. Every cola seems crowned with fresh white hairs reaching toward the light, while clusters of calyxes continue stacking a little more every single day. Even before the flowers gain serious weight, there's already an elegance about this plant that's impossible to ignore. She's one of those phenotypes that naturally catches your eye whenever you open the tent. Not because she's the largest. Because she's glowing. The structure remains wonderfully organised, with each branch carrying its own collection of developing flowers while maintaining excellent spacing throughout the canopy. Everything feels balanced. Everything feels intentional. 🍃 Healthy Leaves, Healthy Flowers One thing that continues standing out is the overall health of the plant. The foliage remains lush, vibrant and beautifully coloured, showing exactly the kind of rich green every grower hopes to see during early flower. Leaf posture remains excellent throughout the day, suggesting healthy transpiration, strong root activity and a plant that's completely comfortable in her environment. The stems continue thickening naturally while supporting an increasing number of flowering sites. Every new day seems to add another layer of flowers. Another handful of pistils. Another little promise of what's still to come. 💡 Light Above And Below Despite her compact size, she's still receiving approximately 1,000 PPFD across the canopy from the Future of Grow Black Series lighting system. For growers unfamiliar with the term, PPFD measures the amount of usable light energy reaching the plant each second for photosynthesis. Rather than simply making the room brighter, it allows us to provide the plants with the energy they need to maximise flower production without unnecessary stress. Below the canopy, the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting continues complementing the main fixtures by bringing light into areas that would otherwise become increasingly shaded as flowering progresses. The goal isn't replacing the top lighting. It's helping lower flowering sites receive additional energy so they can continue developing alongside the main canopy. The real results will come at harvest, but watching the entire room evolve with this lighting combination has been incredibly exciting. 💧 Hand Watering – A Different Kind Of Connection One major change over the past weeks has been irrigation. At this stage, every plant in the room is now being hand watered. It certainly requires more time than automated irrigation. Every watering means mixing nutrients, checking pH, monitoring EC, walking plant to plant and making sure each one receives exactly what she needs. It's more work. There's no question about that. But there's also something incredibly rewarding about it. Hand feeding creates moments to slow down. To observe. To notice the little details that might otherwise go unseen. Sometimes caring for the plants becomes just as enjoyable as watching them grow. Current feeding remains beautifully consistent: • Terra Bloom — 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 Sometimes consistency is the best nutrient we can provide. 🌡️ Environment The environment continues supporting healthy flower production throughout the entire room. Current conditions: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • Root zone temperature: 21°C • Solution temperature: 21°C • CO₂: Approximately 639 ppm Environmental stability remains one of the biggest priorities inside this garden. The plants are flowering under a VPD that encourages healthy transpiration, while fresh household air constantly replenishes natural CO₂ levels through the ventilation system. There's no bottled CO₂ supplementation here. Just good airflow, proper ventilation and letting nature do what it does remarkably well. 👀 Looking Ahead The coming week should bring one of my favourite transitions of the entire flowering cycle. The bright white pistils will continue multiplying, individual flowers will begin merging together into more defined colas, and resin production should become noticeably heavier across the sugar leaves and surrounding calyxes. Although she isn't the biggest plant in the room, I genuinely believe she has the potential to become one of the prettiest by harvest. Every week she becomes a little more convincing. And I can't wait to see how she finishes. 🙏 Final Thoughts Frosted Guava Pheno B has become a wonderful reminder that every grow tells multiple stories. Some plants impress you with explosive growth. Others impress you with massive harvest potential. And then there are plants like this one. Plants that simply make you smile every time you walk into the room. She has grown naturally, confidently and gracefully from the very beginning, asking for very little while giving back an incredible amount of beauty. Watching these two Frosted Guava sisters develop side by side has been one of the highlights of this entire project, and I'm more excited than ever to see how each of them finishes their journey. A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for making this incredible project possible, Plagron for providing outstanding nutrition, Future of Grow for powering the room with exceptional lighting, Lumiflora for adding a new dimension with their under-canopy lighting system, TrolMaster for maintaining precise environmental control, P and to everyone following this journey here on GrowDiaries. Your support, encouragement and shared passion for growing continue making this 8×8 Adventure something truly special. Until next week... Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💚
