I probably should have flushed for all this last week of flowering or a bit more but didnt expected it to get ready for harvest that quick... I bought a microscope and it shows that all trichomes were milky and about a 10% amber, so only flushed at the last watering a few days before harvesting this beauty.

These are hands down the best geno/phenos I’ve ever dealt with the growth rate is mad compared to my other grows I really like these genetics and definitely won’t be growing any shit again 😂

She has crossed the line at 90 days from seed to harvest! She smells sweet and pungent, and so so sticky 😬 Gave her a rough trim and gunna finish with a dry trim ✂️ Will update with the weigh in and a few close ups 🔥

la semana fue calurosa pero las plantas crecen rapido esperemos que bajen las temperaturas en los proximos dias

Moving quickly and filling out the space they got. All girls doing well the SH still a little bit shorter than others she looks very manageable. The 10th and the Hammock look like they could get really big. Light schedule has been shifted over the last 4 days and we are now running on extended beauty sleeps. I think I’ll be seeing flowers by the end of the week, hopefully next weeks diary will be the first week of flower.😍😍😍

Day 77: As expected , the ladies have continued to pack bud girth on this week and i suspect will go at least another week at the least. They are pushing out so many fresh pistils still even though the LOS girl looks very faded now. she is covered in fresh pistils too so no signs of a ripen yet or withdrawal of the unused ones so let's see if her leaves allow another week !!. I wonder if my LOS has died and needs a total recharge for the next run ( already germed and coming very soon !!!) The #2 is continuing to fatten all her mains out which give her a shaggy appearance all over. She is a good size and showing some fading signs too now. I never flush , ever , so thisnis a natural dmfast which I am glad to say is a welcome sight now. #3 Is the tallest girl with the nearest looking buds all down her stems. I live the fresh fruit smells she kicks out too. 2 more weeks would make these stellar girls.

Look at her go! Fully recovered from neem overdose and almost ready for flower. She be getting the same treatment as always: 12-15L water every 7 days. Probably will switch it up to same amount of water every 5 days soon. I did under canopy defoil and cut out a lot of branches that don't get any light. In the next few days I will start lowering the hours of light by 30mins each day and let it slowly fade into flowering 12/12h. I'm really excited to see how things will stretch in the next few weeks. Update coming soon again.

Early harvest, I should’ve left her for 2/3 more weeks.

👑 Godfather OG – Pheno A Week 6 | Wearing the Crown with Confidence Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! There are always a few plants in every grow that naturally draw your attention. Not because they're demanding it... But because they quietly command it. Godfather OG Pheno A continues to be one of those plants. Now standing at approximately 90 cm, she's become one of the tallest ladies in the room, carrying herself with a strong, elegant structure while moving confidently deeper into early flower. Every week she seems to add another layer to her personality. And this week, she revealed one of my favourite characteristics yet. 🌱 Growing Her Own Story For anyone joining this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed technique. Rather than providing a long vegetative period before flowering, every seedling receives twelve hours of light and twelve hours of darkness from the very beginning of life. Instead of deciding when flowering begins... ...I allow each phenotype to decide for herself. Some race into bloom. Others take their time building structure before committing their energy to reproduction. Watching those different strategies unfold inside the very same environment continues to be one of the most rewarding parts of this project. Nature always has her own plans. 👑 A Crown Begins to Form Flowering is now becoming impossible to miss. The main apex is beginning to stack fresh white pistils while the secondary branches are quickly following behind. Every growing tip is slowly transforming from vegetative growth into future flowers. Although these buds are still small, you can already start to imagine the shape they'll eventually become. This is one of my favourite stages of every grow. Each morning brings noticeable progress. Each day the plant looks just a little different than she did the day before. The excitement only continues to build. 🍃 Nine Fingers of Beauty One feature immediately caught my attention this week. Those incredible nine-fingered fan leaves. Large. Wide. Deep green. Absolutely beautiful. It's a question growers often ask: Do nine-fingered leaves mean indica or sativa? The honest answer is... Not necessarily. Leaf shape and leaflet count are influenced by both genetics and environmental conditions. While broad nine-fingered leaves are often associated with vigorous indica-leaning plants because of their wider leaflets, sativas and hybrids can produce nine, eleven, or even thirteen-fingered leaves as well when they're thriving. Rather than acting as a reliable indicator of lineage, high leaflet counts are often simply a sign that the plant is healthy, mature, and growing vigorously. In many ways, they're like a badge of confidence. When a plant has everything she needs—healthy roots, stable nutrition, proper lighting, and a balanced environment—she has the energy to produce these large solar panels that capture tremendous amounts of light. And that's exactly what these leaves are. Tiny power stations. Every one of them working around the clock to fuel the flowers that are only just beginning. 🌿 Strong Structure, Gentle Guidance Standing around 90 cm, Godfather OG Pheno A has continued stretching while maintaining excellent branch spacing throughout the canopy. The weeks of gentle Low Stress Training are paying off beautifully. Rather than forcing the plant into an unnatural shape, the goal has simply been to open the canopy and allow every future flower site its opportunity to receive direct light. Only small adjustments continue to be made. A little leaf tucking here. A gentle repositioning there. Sometimes the smallest interventions produce the biggest rewards later in flower. 🍽️ Feeding for the Next Chapter As flowering continues establishing itself, the nutrition program remains focused on supporting both the final stretch and the beginning of flower production. This week's feeding included: • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L • pH adjustments using Lemon Kick and pH Plus when required Everything continues to be delivered through the AutoPot system, allowing the AquaValve to provide nutrient solution only when the plant has actually consumed what was previously available. One of my favourite aspects of AutoPots is their simplicity. The plant decides when she drinks. I simply make sure the reservoir gives her everything she needs. 🌡️ Environmental Conditions Consistency continues to be one of the strongest foundations of this grow. This week's averages included: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • Nutrient solution: 22°C • Root zone: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 639 ppm Humidity has now been reduced slightly compared to previous weeks as flowering becomes more established, helping prepare the environment for healthy flower development while maintaining vigorous growth during the final stretch. Healthy gardens aren't built through dramatic changes. They're built through hundreds of small, consistent decisions. 📸 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs tell the story perfectly. The close-up shots capture clusters of fresh white pistils appearing across the tops of nearly every branch. The side profile highlights her impressive vertical growth and elegant branch spacing. And perhaps my favourite photograph of the week... ...that enormous nine-fingered fan leaf. Sometimes one leaf says everything you need to know about a plant's health. It almost looks too perfect to be real. 🔮 Looking Ahead During the coming week I expect the vertical stretch to begin slowing as more energy shifts toward flower production. The small pistil clusters should begin merging into recognizable bud sites while resin production quietly prepares to make its first appearance. Training will remain minimal, allowing the plant's natural architecture to continue doing most of the work. Something tells me this lady is only just getting started. And if her early performance is any indication... She's planning to live up to her name. 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Every week these plants remind me that growing isn't about controlling nature. It's about creating the conditions that allow nature to express itself. Watching each phenotype reveal its own character has been one of the greatest joys of this entire project, and I'm incredibly grateful to everyone sharing the journey alongside me. A special thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers around the world can document their progress, learn from one another, and inspire the next generation of home growers. Zamnesia for the outstanding genetics making this phenotype hunt possible. 🌱 Plagron for supplying the nutrients supporting every stage of this grow. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light that powers every leaf, every branch, and every flower. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable environment twenty-four hours a day. And finally... Thank you to everyone who follows these diaries, leaves a comment, asks a question, shares advice, or simply stops by to see how the garden is evolving. Every update becomes a little more meaningful because it's shared with this amazing community. I'll see you all next week as Godfather OG Pheno A continues growing into the queen she's already beginning to look like. Until then... Growers Love and happy growing, everyone! 🌱👑💚

Der Duft lies etwas nach, die Luftfeuchtigkeit stieg an. Ende. Der Anbau dauerte nur 83 Tage vom Samen bis zur Ernte der reifen Blüten. Auto Elephant ist leider in der Hitze bei über 37 Grad Mitte der dritten Woche in die Blüte gegangen. Ich werde sie nächstes Jahr wieder anbauen und auf stabileres und milderes Klima in der Vegetation hoffen. Auch der sehr stickstoffreiche Schwarzkohlekompost hat ihr Probleme bereitet, so vermute ich. Er eignet sich wohl besser für photoperiodische Sorten als für Autoflower Genetik. Ich werde den Kompost beim nächsten Mal anpassen müssen. Die Blüten hängen zum Trocknen. Ich melde mich bald mit dem Ergebnis und in ein paar Wochen mit einem Vape Bericht. Es ist meine zweite Elephantendame und soviel kann ich schon jetzt sagen: Bombe! Super harzig, extrem lecker. Ein High, wie als wenn du auf einem Elephanten sitzend durch die Wolken schwebst und dabei einen Blick auf die Dinge bekommst, die dir ansonsten verborgen blieben. Ein High wie damals beim ersten Mal. ;-) 🍌😄 Danke für‘s vorbeischauen. Bis demnächst. 🐘🌱🌵🔥

Very happy with the results so far. Diligently doing nothing lol

The plant got harvested at day 56 of flowering. too early bit was my first grow and had no idea about the harvest window.

Ginger Nut Cookies 16th Jan 2020 Well she's still alive despite me nearly cooking her by leaving her out in the full sun for too long 😄 Should have remembered to slap on some suncream 😂 Anyway Shit happens and I only lost the first set of true treaves and i'll refrain from putting her out in the sun for now. The reason I'm keeping it on the 16hr light schedule is because I think it will be photo dependant & I'd like to see if it can get a bit of vegetation growth before it tries to flower. Otherwise I'll only end up with a miniature plant and that would only be wasting my time . If it does sprout pistils during this lighting schedule then it must be an autoflowering strain but I dont think it will. **** Great Aussie Music Videos **** Last week was Gotye with "Somebody that I used to Know" It went number 1 for awhile here and did quite well in the US I believe. It's time to step it up a notch so for this weeks Video i give to you the one and only............Accadacca aka AC/DC with Thunderstruck 💪💪💪 I was lucky to see them live in 2010 for the "Black Ice " tour . Best Concert ever despite my ears ringing for days later 😆 Sadly Malcom Young passed away in 2017 and the lead singer Bryan Johnson had to retire from the band because of hearing loss ( No Wonder) So Check this video out and Rock your socks off to some Good aussie Music ..... I'll be back next week with more tunes and another grow update Grey_Wolf ****** https://youtu.be/v2AC41dglnM **********

Skywalker one and another Skywalker have stretched quite a bit in last week. About an inch and a half a day. I have a better light on order so hopefully it will prevent stretching in the future. Every day I move the fan leaves around to expose the buds that are growing. It should be an interesting crop in a few weeks Dec 9: S1 stretched to 24 inches. I will try to increase all the 2.5 of bloom (gave this to Pot 3 with S2 which is stretching about 2 days after S1)

Start of week 5 of flower and the girls are looking happy, starting to get a decent scent on them, definitely got that citrusy smell coupled with candy sweet... I can’t wait for it to finish now, 3-4 weeks and counting 😅

It is Like brewing a potion 🔥

Day 85 26/07/24 Friday Big feed today full 5L a little run offusimg de-chlorinated water pH 6. So we are through her first transition week. Starting to see sex pistils forming at end of last week. Picture and video update ✌️💚 Day 88 29/07/24 Monday Just de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today, full 5L with just under a 1L run off. Day 89 30/07/24 Tuesday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today but I'm adding in Plagron Power Buds AND Plagron PK13-14 only 5ml each to 5ml water. It says to use on every irrigation from early flower so here we go. If I start getting burns I'll cut out a few advanced nutrients extras and go again from there. She is just ridiculous, robust, never stresses, healthy and just wants to throw arms out everywhere 🤣💚 Day 91 01/08/24 Thursday End of week Using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only this time.

Let me start by saying, I'M SO GLAD I DIDN'T CHOP! THESE BABIES ARE GAINING SOME SERIOUS BULK! I can not wait to see them finish out, It's really testing my patience, but I notice more bulk every single day! It's about time to get the chop, they are maturing really quick and I love it. The smells are absolutely insane!!!
