Smells and tastes nice

Week 11. Day 35 roughly, most of these are 63-70

Leaves continue to turn yellow and fall off

Couple days ago the Autoflower started producing couple pistils.

Grow has been going well! Tryna grow those roots and spread out the canopy. Have been doing a lot of hard LST, even to the point where I’ve accidentally topped a few. Soil grows are looking great. Very low maintenance.

OMG! (Oh My Growers) what an adventure we have here! Looks like in a few weeks we'll be deep in a zenzational jungle! 😍 They're definitely comfortable, I can notice the roots and mycorrhiza combo just taking over the soil. Leaves are branching out and getting think which is great to see, not as thick as I'd expected though. Next week they'll be transplanted to final 11L fabric pots. Happy Growing!

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno B Week 5 | Every Plant Has Its Own Clock Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of the things I love most about running multiple phenotypes side by side is that they constantly remind me that plants don’t read our schedules—they write their own. This project follows several phenotypes from the same seed line, all grown under identical environmental conditions using the 12/12 From Seed method. Rather than deciding when flowering begins by changing the light cycle, every plant receives 12 hours of light from the day she germinates, allowing each individual to determine when she’s biologically ready to begin reproduction. Cash Express Pheno B has reached that exciting milestone. While she took a little longer than her sister to get there, this week she officially earned her place in Flower Week 1. Different pace. Same destination. ⸻ 🌼 Welcome to Flower Week One This week brought the first unmistakable signs that vegetative growth is now giving way to flowering. Fresh white pistils are beginning to emerge from the developing tops, signalling that this beautiful lady has officially entered her reproductive stage. Those tiny white hairs are the first building blocks of what will eventually become dense, resin-covered flowers. Although the transition is still in its early days, it’s amazing how quickly the plant changes once she makes that decision. Stretch has begun. The internodes are opening slightly. New growth is becoming more focused around future bud sites. The adventure has truly entered a new chapter. ⸻ 🌱 Hand Feeding Every Step of the Way Unlike her sister, this phenotype is not growing on the AutoPot system. She continues to be hand-fed, allowing me complete control over each irrigation and giving me the opportunity to monitor her response closely throughout this important transition. Each watering becomes another chance to observe the plant, inspect leaf posture, evaluate the substrate, and adjust nutrition only when necessary. It’s a slower approach than automation, but one that provides a very personal connection with the plant. Sometimes it’s nice letting technology do the work. Sometimes it’s equally rewarding getting your hands dirty. This lady definitely belongs in the second category. ⸻ 🍽️ Nutrition This week’s feeding schedule included: • Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Roots – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L Alongside the standard pH adjustments using Lemon Kick and pH Plus when required. As flowering begins, the nutrition program gradually shifts from supporting vegetative growth toward encouraging flower initiation while still providing enough nitrogen to support the ongoing stretch. The balance during these first weeks is incredibly important. Too much bloom nutrition too early can slow development. Too little can delay flower formation. This stage is all about finding that sweet spot. ⸻ 🌡️ Room Conditions The environment remained stable throughout the week. • Day temperature averaged 31.1°C • Night temperature settled around 25°C • Relative humidity averaged 72% • Nutrient solution remained close to 24.2°C • Root zone stayed near 21°C • Atmospheric CO₂ averaged 639 ppm Humidity is intentionally kept a little higher during this early flowering transition. At this stage the plants are still stretching rapidly, producing large amounts of fresh foliage and demanding plenty of water movement throughout the canopy. As flowers continue developing over the coming weeks, humidity will gradually be reduced to create ideal conditions for dense, healthy bud formation. ⸻ 📸 Studio Time This week I decided to give Pheno B her own little modelling session. The studio photographs from every angle—including bird’s-eye views, side profiles, and even under-canopy shots—allow us to document her architecture in detail before flowering really transforms her. These photographs are much more than pretty pictures. They’re a visual timeline. Months from now we’ll be able to compare structure, node spacing, flower development and canopy evolution from the very beginning all the way to harvest. It’s one of my favourite parts of keeping these diaries. Every photograph captures a moment that will never exist again. ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should bring a noticeable acceleration in flower development. I expect the pistils to multiply rapidly while the initial stretch continues, creating more defined bud sites throughout the canopy. We’ll also continue monitoring her structure as flowering progresses, making only gentle adjustments if needed to maintain airflow and light penetration. For now, patience is the best training technique. Sometimes the hardest job a grower has… …is simply allowing the plant to do what she already knows how to do. ⸻ 💚 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this journey. Whether you’re here to learn, compare phenotypes, improve your own garden, or simply enjoy watching these ladies grow, I’m truly grateful that you’re part of this adventure. Special thanks to: 💚 GrowDiaries for creating a place where growers from all over the world can share knowledge, successes and even mistakes. Zamnesia for providing the genetics that make this phenotype hunt possible. 🌱 Plagron for the nutrition program supporting every stage of this grow. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering consistent, high-quality lighting throughout the entire flowering room. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable environment day and night. And finally… Thank you to every grower, follower, supporter, silent reader, critic, and friend who joins me on this journey. Your encouragement and conversations are what make these diaries so enjoyable to create. I’ll see you all next week, where Cash Express Pheno B will continue settling into flower and, little by little, reveal the unique personality hidden inside her genetics. Until then… Growers Love and happy growing, everyone. 🌱🚂💚

Flower Week 3 / Day 2: The plants each received 2 liters of water and nutrients. I only gave them half the dose of fertilizer. They are doing wonderful. The leaves have a rich green color and are praying. Flower Week 3 / Day 5: Today I defoliated them again a little, as some parts were getting a bit too bushy. They are now quite sticky and the trichomes glisten in the light. Unfortunately, it doesn't look quite the same on the video. All of Taylor's buds develop evenly. In Beyoncé's case, one half is already well developed and the other half behaves completely differently. In any case, both are healthy. Perhaps it is also due to the genetics of the plant.

Flower - Week 3 (Days 15-21) Week three was all about managing momentum. The stretch is still very real, and the canopy has been getting denser by the day - so my main goals were: keep airflow moving through the plant, keep tops positioned under the trellis, and keep the reservoir stable while she drinks hard. I’m still doing regular top-offs and watching how the numbers move. Even when I top off with “plain” pH’d water, the EC behavior has been a bit weird - partly because my top-off water isn’t actually plain (it’s sitting around ~0.8 EC), and partly because the plant is clearly drinking a lot. EC has been running hot on paper, but the plant hasn’t shown classic overfeed stress - she’s stayed vigorous and healthy, with no meaningful clawing or widespread tip burn. Training-wise, supercropping has been a win. I’ve bent a few tops to control height and keep the canopy even, and the branches have bounced back quickly - exactly what you want to see. I also did a proper cleanup underneath: lollipopping to remove lower growth that wasn’t going to amount to much and to open up the structure for airflow. The canopy still covers the whole tent, so even after the “haircut,” she should be capturing plenty of light where it matters. Overall: she’s thriving, stretching hard, and starting to look like a real production plant now - dense top growth, strong structure, and a clean lower zone that should help reduce humidity pockets and improve bud development as flower stacks up.

Another smooth week for everyone but the twisted helix. This plant gets the award for the most unhappy plant I have ever grown. The leaves are dying off fast and she isn't looking good. Just trying to keep her alive long enough to make hash out of her. Sugar Cane buds are pretty small compared to the others but she's full of trichomes and still has some time to put on weight. Jack Herer has a super strong lemony aroma. Everyone is still stacking up. Not seeing any swelling yet so we still have some time before they think about finishing up. I put the dehumidifier in the room this week. Hoping to start getting these girls chopped and trimmed in the next few weeks, but have to let them do what they do.

Good week. Careful with the nutrients. I upped mine a little to much and noticed right away. Amazing smelling. Really sticky. Careful with nuts nice plant.

I’m loving these yellow training clips I bought off Amazon. Super easy to attach and adjust. Seems to be less hard on the stems vs. the wire I’d been using. Starting to node out big time!

Almost done on the home stretch now last few weeks 🙏

So here we are, at the end, a few months later. I was so happy that I'll finally grow a plant without any training at all, just to see the full and uninterrupted genetic expression. It was a blast to grow her, I can't wait for the plant to dry and give it a few weeks of curing but she smells great already. I also wanted to thank Divine Seeds for the contest strain and Bio Tabs for great Bio fertilizer. You can judge for yourself because I'll let the photographs speak for themselves. Speaking of photography, I went with a moody style this time, because she has a great structure. I've trimmed her a little bit here and there and I've left a few big fan leaves on both sides for better looks. The big fan leaves reflect the light so well, it make the whole plant shine. Okay now head to the gallery and let all that sink in ;) XOXO Cremo
