We'll call this the beginning of week 1, she's up and growing. The MegaCrop should push her growth a little and really get her off on the right foot. Debating topping or LST, not sure how this one's gonna play out, but I'll see how fast she make a vertical move before the final decision is made. Thanks again to Zamnesia and Plagron for the opportunity to grow some dank buds!

This is when I knew I needed to go All in or Go home lol even tho I'm home already. So, I ordered a whole kit and said F it

Day 71. Girls just perfect ;))) As any grower i would want, bigger, fatter, stronger, but they are in that range anyway, now main thing not to screw up ;))) Girls on nute, water, water+calmag, water+silicaAcid, water+molasses rhythm and just love life ! Day 72. Got more presents, thank You Zamnesia ! Asked for 4 strains, got 2 ;))) Still 10 beans and full grow by one house, like i always try to do. Always wanted to try out Runtz, all grows that i saw - was sick ! Kalini Asia - new taste and strain for me 4sure ! Day 76. All is good , they are missing CalMag from those lights a bit and with such amount of buds, but should be fine. Todays watering was only with CalMag, ph 6.5. Next watering full nute blast, should be fun to observe, they are starving a bit , so i hope for huge grow rate after. Tried 4 month cured weed at a friends, he had to chop girl on week 6 of flower, with nutes still being fed. After an hour head pain , ash was still black ... I would never try not to flush .... Happy growing !

👑 Godfather OG – Pheno B Week 5 | A Gentle Giant Finds Her Rhythm Welcome back to another update from the 8×8 Adventure! One of my favourite aspects of this project is documenting every phenotype individually. Although every plant is receiving the same care, the same environment, and the same attention, each one responds in her own unique way. Godfather OG Pheno B is a perfect example of that. Standing proudly among the tallest plants in the room, she’s developing into a vigorous, elegant lady with excellent structure, healthy growth, and an increasingly impressive canopy. She may share the same name as her sister… But she’s writing a completely different story. ⸻ 🌱 The Journey So Far If you’re joining this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed technique. Instead of allowing a long vegetative period before switching to flower, every plant has remained under a constant cycle of 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness from the very beginning. This allows every phenotype to express its own natural rhythm. No forcing. No extended veg. Just letting genetics decide when they’re ready to bloom. That has become one of the most educational parts of this entire grow. Watching siblings respond differently under identical conditions never gets old. ⸻ 🌸 Flowering Has Officially Begun For me, this marks Week One of Flower. She’s now fully entering that exciting transition where vegetative growth slowly gives way to reproductive growth. Fresh white pistils are appearing across the tops and developing branches. Those tiny white hairs are the first signs of the flowers to come. During the next several weeks they’ll multiply rapidly as each growth tip transforms into a future cola. Every morning brings another little surprise. It’s one of those stages where you can almost watch the plant changing before your eyes. ⸻ 🌿 A Beautiful Structure Already reaching approximately 70 cm, Godfather OG Pheno B is another one of the largest ladies inside the grow room. She has developed a wonderfully open structure with strong vertical growth and healthy lateral branching. Throughout vegetative growth I’ve relied mainly on gentle Low Stress Training, carefully bending leaves and branches to improve light penetration while allowing the plant to maintain her natural architecture. Rather than forcing the plant into shape… I’ve simply guided her. Now those early adjustments are beginning to pay off as multiple flowering sites receive excellent light exposure. Every branch is beginning to compete for the spotlight. ⸻ 💧 Hand Watering — Precision Through Observation Unlike her sister, this phenotype is being hand-watered, allowing me to monitor her individually at every irrigation. Hand watering offers a different type of control. Each watering becomes an opportunity to inspect the plant closely, evaluate her response, monitor runoff, and make small adjustments whenever needed. It’s a slower approach than automated irrigation, but it creates a very personal connection with each plant. As flowering begins, the feeding program has also transitioned to support this new phase of growth. Bloom nutrients are gradually taking the lead while maintaining enough nitrogen to fuel the final stretch before the plant fully commits her energy to flower production. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Continues to Deliver The grow room continues providing an exceptionally stable environment. Current conditions include: • Day temperature: 31.1°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 72% • Nutrient solution: 24.2°C • Root zone: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 639 ppm Everything remains remarkably consistent, allowing the plants to focus entirely on healthy growth. As flowering progresses and the buds begin to develop greater density, humidity will gradually be reduced to create the ideal environment for the weeks ahead. Consistency remains one of the most important nutrients we can provide. ⸻ 📷 This Week’s Gallery This week’s photographs capture her from every angle. Studio portraits showcase her elegant structure and increasing height. Close-up images reveal the first pistils emerging across multiple flowering sites. Bird’s-eye views highlight how evenly the canopy is developing after weeks of gentle training. I’ve also included updates from inside the room together with environmental controller readings so everyone following this project can continue seeing not only the plants themselves, but also the conditions helping them thrive. Documenting the entire journey has become almost as rewarding as growing the plants themselves. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead The coming week should bring another noticeable burst of development. I expect the flowering sites to expand quickly as more pistils appear and the early bud clusters begin taking shape. Stretch may continue for a little longer before gradually slowing down, allowing the plant to redirect more energy into flower production. Training will remain minimal from this point onward, with only gentle adjustments where needed to maintain airflow and light penetration. She’s healthy. She’s vigorous. And I have a feeling she’s only beginning to reveal what she’s capable of. ⸻ 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Every diary tells a different story, and sharing these journeys with this amazing community makes the entire experience even more rewarding. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing an incredible platform where growers from around the world can learn, share and inspire one another. Zamnesia for the fantastic genetics making this phenotype hunt possible. 🌱 Plagron for providing the nutrients supporting these ladies every step of the journey. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light powering this entire project. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable, carefully controlled environment from day one. And finally… Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read these updates, leave comments, ask questions, share knowledge, or simply follow along. Your encouragement makes documenting every single phenotype worthwhile. I’ll see you all next week as Godfather OG Pheno B continues her journey deeper into flowering. Growers Love and the adventure is only just beginning. 🌱👑💚

She's responding super good to lst method she looks absolutely gorgeous I would have loved to be able to grow her since march however It was not posible but I keep this wonderful indica in my list. This wonderful pheno of Alien gorilla has started flower the 3rd of August.

It's week four of flower, and my humidifier is busted. I can't afford to replace it right now so she's stressing. And by she I mean the two clones and then I popped the mom in the same pot due to space constraints. They seem to be doing well despite the dead of winter in Michigan humidity.

So, In the End of Week 11 we have harvested two of three Sensi Skunks. In the End of week 12 we harvested the last one (Sensi Skunk 2, day 83). In Total we had around 130g of trimmed wet buds from the three plants: – Sensi Skunk 1 30g wet buds – Sensi Skunk 2 40g wet buds – Sensi Skunk 3 63g wet buds Placed the trimmed buds in a dry net and dried them vor around 4-6 days before placing them in jars and ventilating them regularly. for now it seems to be around 25g in dry buds. Had hoped for a little more, but it was really bad weather so we think it's okay. smell is really nice! For next year, we have learned and will make things a little different. – will start way earlier in the year for more sunshine and better weather – pots were way to big, none of the plants needed so much space for their roots – next year will try 10l – maybe we will start different nutrient company. any suggestions? All around this was a very fun project! Loved how the plants looked and miss them already. The smell of the dry buds is already really nice and we are looking forward to test it. will update then!

Here I am again, stoners, haha. I'm really liking this genetics, they're growing fast and look at all the pistils it's throwing out. I foresee a delicious harvest, haha. Kisses and hugs.💀😍

the week started with a novelty for me: the appearance of nematodes in my tanks... strange little worms, which gather in the water and move in little spasms (see video 👆) When I started growing, I bought a whole range of products against infestations, paranoid as I was (I'm sure others have experienced this 😅); Among other things, I bought NeemAzal, neem oil in emulsion. So I took a chance. I emptied my tanks, cleaned and dried the bottom, without much conviction as the worms must have been in the coco already. I made a new soup with my fertilizer, adding 20ml of neem per 10 litres. Well, I don't know if it was really the right product, but for the last 5 days there has been no trace of nematodes! The water seems soapy, the grease film is more important than without the neem, but if it takes the small sacrifice of a conscientious cleaning once a week, I'll gladly do it! In any case, my plants are doing absolutely no worse : the first one got its leaves back in 2 days, already forcing me to a small pruning 4 days later, now showing well several colas; I also defoliated the 2nd one for the first time, which produced leaves already bigger than my hand in 2 weeks of life! happy with this hydroponic experience so far 😊

Actual veg period is 3 weeks my grow is from seedling. Plants seem to look healthy. The 1000 watt hps puts out some heavy heat, so airflow and humidity have been my struggles . looking to add ac ventilation in the next week to maintain below 80. Added trellis(It’s my first lol) and topped two plants will top more as they grow.

About to go on holiday for two weeks, my mate looks after them like a boss, By now I know a lot more About light and realise I need another light especially for flowering, the plan is to order a 240w quantum board, 301b Samsung chips just as I go on holiday to take delivery on return, this takes a bit longer than expected to order light, I leave for holiday around end of week 5 veg

Week 5 of 12/12 Have some nutrient burn some plants more than the other. Thats a risk if you grow different types of plants. Give them to much so now i lowered the ec a bit. I have gave them also advanced nutrients revive with ph 6.0. Next time i will give them just plain water and them slowly build up the ec again depending on the reaction of the plants.

Die 4. Blütewoche neigt sich ihrem Ende zu. Den Pflanzen geht es soweit gut . Nächste Woche beginne ich mit dem PK 13/14. Vermutlich 2 Giessgänge. Allmählich beginnt es auch sehr lecker zu duften. Hoffe das jetzt nichts rumzickt. Ziel ist es Temperatur und RLF konstant zu halten. Die Pflanze welche am nächsten zur Zuluftsöffnung steht purpelt schon leicht.

Getting close! Buds are nice and thick. No amber on either but plenty of milky.

Temps, wind, clouds, rain, heat, cold—- all within this week! Crazy, but she is dealing and starting to flower! Gave her first feeding and last ipm treatment (mammoth control). ✌️🏻💚🌿💨

27-08-2026 Somehow it’s hard for me to keep updating the progress of my cannabisplants. I wanted to do it weekly, but it just doesn’t happen. Our fruits and vegetables need to be harvested and our animals want a lot of attention too! I’m so happy growing with Biotabs, I hardly have to do anything and if I don’t have time, my plants are growing anyway. In week 16 (first signs of pre-flowering) all the plants got watered with 5 litres of water with 20 ml of Bio PK 5-8 and in week 20 again, 20 ml of Bio PK 5-8 diluted in 5 litres of water. This is the third time I had to water the plants manually. I just love this way of growing. Perfect for someone with a chronic illness. Flowering started one month earlier than last year. I’m so happy, maybe these Early Versions will finish in time, before the autumn rains are coming. The plants have a nice green colour. I still need to ‘shave the legs’ and cut some branches and leaves away at the inside of the plant. Especially now when it rains sometimes I want them to dry quickly. I already removed two baskets of leaves and small branches from NL x Big Bud and Burger Kush. GMO Fast isn’t flowering yet. She is only showing a few pre-flower hairs. I think she won’t make it in time… GMO Fast also had some issues during a summer storm with heavy winds and rain. One of her main branches came down. It was still attached to the centre of the plant, but it began to rot and I had to cut it out. I lost 25% of this plant. It’s my own fault. She is over 2,5 metres now and her height makes her susceptible for wind. It makes me think about securing all my plants with long bamboo-poles or sticks. If the flowers start growing, all those branches will get heavy eventually. Maybe it’s time to prioritize the cannabisplants at this moment…

Ready for the final flush and darkness, next step ✂️✂️✂️
