Started the first top dressing of Gaia Green All Purpose and Power Bloom at a 50/50 ratio of 1tbsp/gal each.

Aloha Freunde der Sonne 🙏 Wir sind kurz vor dem Ziel und das kann man schön deutlich sehen. Die schönen Farben und der Zuckerbesatz lässt sich sehen.

end of week 6 flower | damage not gettong worse | beautiful colors and look | strong rotten fruit smell | its gonna go into the freezer and will be washed in winter

July 18: still recovering from the hail storm 7 days ago, but looking good. Start force flowering tonight. That means in the dark garage at 9 pm, a few seconds of 730 nm far red light to initiate ‘dark mode’ 2 h faster, and then out of garage at 7 am. So I get 10 +2 or 12 h of darkness in a ‘26 h’ day. Great trick if you have daily access to your flowering plants. July 19: added second layer of scrog net. Watered with a compost tea this morning.

Gorilla cookies is a great beginner plant. I had my humidifier too close to GC early on causing rust spots. Week 6 there is no signs of rust spots and growth is consistent with the bigger plants in the tent. I was thinking this plant maybe behind given the rust spots, it caught right up, healthy hardy strain.

4/27/2024 Flower Week 10 Day 1- Water Change Day!!!! Still about a week out.. but her grow sister is ready.. I setup the Dry tent, and I have moved everything in the Cannatrol so I have room for 2.2lbs wet in the cannatrol and everything else will be hanging.. I have my AC unit in the tent, I have my Dehumidifier's setup and I have my fans. I have one more fan that will be delivered tomorrow and I needed one more Carbon filter and inline fan and that will be here tomorrow as well. As soon as they get in I will go ahead and check one more time on the Trichomes of her grow sister and as long as she is where I want her to be. My Dry tent temp will be 70 and my RH will be 55. Timber...... I added 36 gallons and the accompanying Nutes I added the following Nutes: CalMag= .50Mil/Gal= 18Mil FloraMicro = 2.3Mil/Gal= 83Mil FloraGro= 1.3Mil/Gal= 47Mil FLoraBloom= 4.0Mil/Gal= 144Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil SIGNAL= 3.0Mil/Gal = 2.0Mil Liquid KoolBloom= 2.5mil/Gal = 90Mil EPSOM- 1 Big pinch 4/28/2024 Flower Week 10 Day 2- Did a Trichome check just to see where she is.. I think still about a week or 2 out.. will just keep looking every couple of days and see where we are. I love being able to grow. 4/29/2024 Flower Week 10 Day 3- Didn't do anything today but just get a few photos... 4/30/2024 Flower Week 10 Day 4- Didn't do anything today.. 5/01/2024 Flower Week 10 Day 5- Didn't do anything today but get a few pics.. 5/02/2024 Flower Week 10 Day 6- took Her grow sister down today.. Her grow sister was just ready and it giver her more space and light to herself.. 5/03/2024 Flower Week 10 Day 7- Didn't do anything today but get a few pics.. She is already starting to darken up on the side that her grow sister was on that didn't get much light. Since I took down her sister yesterday I have 4 days until I can take her down.. I will need to move the flower once dry from the cannatrol and put that in an auto cure tub and then put in a fresh 2.2lbs of wet from this harvest. Excited..

💜 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 8 | Let Her Shine Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! Eight weeks into flowering, Purple Haze Pheno A continues to prove that sometimes the best thing a grower can do is simply step back and let the plant speak. And this girl has plenty to say. She's green. She's vigorous. She's developing beautiful flowers. She's covered in healthy foliage. And honestly? I have very little to complain about. While some of the other girls in this room have recently received defoliation to improve light penetration and airflow, Purple Haze Pheno A is taking a different path. For now, I'm leaving her exactly as she is. She's leafy, yes. But she's also healthy. And there's an important difference. So this week, rather than forcing her into a particular shape, I'm going to let her shine exactly as she wants to. 🌱 One Room. One Method. Twelve Different Personalities If this is your first visit to the diary, welcome! The entire 8×8 Adventure is built around one fascinating experiment: 12 different genetics. One environment. One growing method. One nutritional strategy. Every seed in this room was placed directly under a 12/12 light schedule from seed. There was no long traditional vegetative period. Instead, the plants were given the opportunity to reveal their genetic personalities under the same conditions from the very beginning. The same: • Plagron nutrition • Future of Grow Black Series lighting • TrolMaster environmental control • AutoPot irrigation • Soil • Temperature • Humidity • Light schedule • General care There are no favourites. No special feeding. No individual environmental adjustments. The variables are intentionally kept as consistent as possible. The biggest variable left in the equation is genetics. And Purple Haze Pheno A is showing us a personality that is becoming increasingly easy to recognize. 💜 Purple Haze Is Finding Her Rhythm Some phenotypes announce themselves immediately. Others take time. Purple Haze Pheno A feels like the second type. She hasn't been the tallest girl in the room. She hasn't been the fastest. She hasn't needed to dominate the canopy. Instead, she's quietly developed into one of those plants that becomes more impressive every time you look at her. The colour alone is beautiful. Her foliage has that deep, rich green that immediately catches the eye. The leaves remain large and well developed, with strong petioles and excellent overall structure. And then you look underneath that foliage... …and the flowers are there. Lots of them. Healthy flowering sites developing throughout the plant, with increasingly defined bud structure and plenty of visible resin production. She's not screaming for attention. She's simply doing her job. And doing it beautifully. 🌸 Week 8 — What Is Actually Happening? This is an interesting point in the flowering cycle. By Week 8, we're no longer looking at the early formation of flowers. The plant has already made that transition. Now the focus increasingly shifts toward flower maturation, calyx development, resin production and overall bud density. The plant is still photosynthesizing aggressively. Those large fan leaves are still important energy-producing organs. The flowers continue developing. The calyxes continue swelling. Resin production becomes increasingly obvious. And the plant gradually begins moving from building the structure of the flowers toward finishing and ripening them. But there's an important distinction here. Week 8 does NOT automatically mean "harvest soon." A calendar tells us how long the plant has been flowering. It doesn't tell us exactly when the plant is finished. Different genetics mature at different speeds. Different phenotypes within the same genetic line can also mature differently. That's exactly why we're watching the plant rather than simply counting weeks. 🍃 And What Week 8 Is NOT Week 8 also doesn't automatically mean: "Remove all the leaves." This is something I think is worth documenting because this girl provides a perfect example. There is a tendency to think that once flowering reaches the later stages, a plant should automatically be stripped down. But defoliation is a tool, not a flowering requirement. If a leaf is healthy, photosynthetically active and contributing to the plant, its size alone isn't a reason to remove it. Purple Haze Pheno A is certainly leafy. But look at her. The flowers are developing. The foliage is healthy. The plant is not showing obvious signs that it is struggling under its own canopy. So why interfere? For now, I'm choosing not to. 🌿 Let Her Be This is probably the biggest lesson from this week's update. Not every plant needs the same intervention. Some of the girls in the 8×8 Adventure have benefited from defoliation. Purple Haze Pheno A isn't one of them—at least not yet. Her natural architecture is working. She's producing flowers throughout the plant. She's maintaining excellent colour. She's maintaining healthy foliage. And most importantly, she doesn't look like a plant asking me to solve a problem. So I'm not going to create one. I'll continue monitoring airflow, humidity, light penetration and the development of the lower flowering sites. If the plant gives me a reason to intervene, I'll respond. But until then... she gets to be herself. 💡 The Light Reaches More Than Just the Top The addition of the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting continues to make this experiment particularly interesting. Traditional top lighting naturally gives the upper canopy the greatest photon exposure. As plants develop, the lower portions can receive considerably less usable light. The under-canopy lighting gives those lower areas another source of illumination. And this is exactly where I want to observe rather than assume. Will the lower flowers continue developing strongly? Will flower density become more uniform throughout the plant? Will the additional light allow me to maintain more foliage without compromising the lower canopy? These are the questions that make this project so interesting. We're not simply trying to produce a harvest. We're observing how different phenotypes respond to the same ecosystem. And Purple Haze Pheno A is giving us another opportunity to learn. 💧 Feeding This Week The nutritional strategy remains consistent with the flowering program. This week's feeding includes: • Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • pH Plus – 0.03 ml/L as required • Lemon Kick – 0.03 ml/L as required The goal at this stage isn't simply to push more and more nutrition. It's about maintaining a balanced environment where the plant can continue performing without unnecessary stress. Purple Haze Pheno A is responding beautifully to the current strategy. Her foliage remains strong. Her flowers continue developing. And visually, she is telling me that she's comfortable. That's exactly what I want to see. 🌡️ The Environment Consistency remains one of the strongest foundations of this entire project. Current conditions: • Flower Week: 8 • Height: 120 cm • Light Schedule: 12/12 • Day Temperature: 29°C • Night Temperature: 25°C • Relative Humidity: 60% • pH: 6.0 • EC: 2.0 mS/cm • Solution Temperature: 22°C • Substrate Temperature: 21°C • CO₂: 639 ppm • Pot Size: 15 L • Watering: 1.2 L per plant / 24h One of the things I particularly enjoy about this project is that these numbers aren't being adjusted specifically for Purple Haze. She is living inside the same ecosystem as the other phenotypes. And she's responding beautifully. 📸 A Closer Look at Purple Haze The photographs this week really tell the story. The wide shots show a plant with a strong natural structure and a considerable amount of healthy foliage. The closer photographs reveal something even more interesting. Her flowers are becoming increasingly defined. The resin coverage is becoming more obvious. Pistils are beginning to transition in colour while fresh white pistils continue appearing across the flowers. And those sugar leaves are already carrying an impressive layer of trichomes. This is one of those plants where you can look at a photograph and immediately understand why I keep saying: She's beautiful. Not because she's the biggest. Not because she's the tallest. Not because she has been aggressively trained. Simply because everything appears to be working together. 💚 The Beauty of Not Interfering There's a strange discipline involved in growing plants. Sometimes we think we're supposed to constantly do something. Trim something. Tie something. Remove something. Change something. Adjust something. But growing also teaches you when not to touch the plant. Purple Haze Pheno A is currently giving me that lesson. She's telling me: "I'm good." So I'm listening. I'm going to continue observing her canopy, her flowers, her environment and her overall health. If she needs something, I'll respond. If she doesn't... I'll let her shine. 🔮 Looking Ahead The coming weeks should become increasingly interesting. Flower development will continue. The calyxes should continue swelling. Resin production should become even more apparent. And eventually, the conversation will shift from building flowers toward determining when those flowers are actually mature. But I'm not going to rush that process. We're going to watch the plant. We're going to watch the flowers. We're going to watch the trichomes when the time comes. And we're going to let Purple Haze Pheno A tell us when she's ready. For now, she's still working. And she's doing a beautiful job. 💜 Let Her Shine Week 8 has given me something I really appreciate about phenotype hunting. Not every beautiful plant needs to be manipulated into looking beautiful. Sometimes the genetics already know what they're doing. Purple Haze Pheno A has developed into a lush, healthy and increasingly impressive plant. She's leafy. She's vigorous. She's green. She's producing flowers beautifully. And right now, I don't see a reason to change that. While some of her sisters have gone through defoliation, this girl gets to remain in her natural state for a little longer. Because this isn't about making every plant look identical. It's about discovering what each phenotype wants to become. And Purple Haze Pheno A? She's becoming something very special. So for now... No unnecessary intervention. No stripping just because the calendar says Week 8. No trying to force her into someone else's shape. Just observation. Patience. And appreciation. Let's make this girl shine. 💜🌿 🙏 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure. Every week this project becomes more fascinating. Twelve plants. One environment. Twelve completely different personalities. That's the beauty of growing from seed. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can document, learn and share. 🌱 Zamnesia for providing the Purple Haze genetics that allow me to explore this phenotype. 💜 Plagron for the nutrition supporting this entire project. 💡 Future of Grow LED for providing the lighting driving the canopy. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain the stable environment behind the scenes. ✨ Lumiflora for bringing under-canopy lighting into the experiment and giving me another variable to observe. And finally, thank you to everyone following along, commenting, asking questions and sharing the journey. Every plant has a story. Purple Haze Pheno A is writing hers slowly. Beautifully. And without asking for much attention. Sometimes the best thing a grower can do... is simply step back and watch. Growers Love! 💜🌿

Week 4 seemed a bit slow at first, but i also realised that I wasn't treating coco appropriately, I should feed nutrients every time I water and control the ph and ppm better. By the end of week 4 I got a water quality tester and am now able to properly take my ph down and monitor ppm so my plants don't get nutrient burned, but still gets enough nutrients in time. I also allowed good amount of the top layer of my coco to dry because I mixed up advice that received about soil and coco together. Apparently coco has no issues with overwatering unless your pots have no drainage so in the last 2 days I started treating coco the way it's supposed to be treated, I also finally got calmag and my plants are showing good signs of health past 3 days, they look revitalised and happy again 😊 Unfortunately, apple fritter was way too sick for me to continue with it so I restarted it in a proper coco and perlite mix that's non fertilised, that's a separate diary because its a whole month later. I decided not to train the first 2 plants just to see how the natural process is supposed to go.

Not too bad of a week. Not much to comment on. Hoping to flush the banger in the next week because it should be done by the 15th of May or a little later.

Special queen and special kush with one week into veg stage, ak-47 with 4 weeks so I started the lst, critical with 2 weeks

everything is still going great new growth starting to show trying to debate on the veg time due to small pots introduced a slight breeze to strengthen stem

.

The seeds have germinated after around 59 hours to be exact very strongly I started to germinate the seeds on January 12th however it was 00:00 Am so it's almost like saying January 13th, the 2 out of 2 seeds have germinated very well without any problem! Quick germination, let's go for it! Stay tuned, this is a strain I love for her absolutely amazing terp profile!! Don't miss it👨‍🌾💚🔝♥️💛

Die Blüten reifen weiter und verbreiten einen süßlichen Duft. Auch die Hitze in der letzten Woche hat die Pflanze gut weggesteckt und macht einen vitalen Eindruck. Auch ist die Pflanze wieder weitestgehend frei von Blattläusen.

Unfortunately, the situation forced me to start induction and flowering earlier, but the girl is so strong that she is doing great ! She caught up with her friends without any problems, I think she will catch up without any problems.

We have our color. Now for the buds to become more dense 😁 Edit: Just found out that this is a cross between Queen of the South from Relentless Genetics and Sugar Cane from Inhouse Genetics 🤯🤯🤯🤯

🌸 Week 3 Flower – Growing Strong, Tall, and Vibrant! 🌱 Hey Grow Fam! It’s already Week 3 in flower, and I’m thrilled to bring you this update because these plants are doing phenomenally well! Some are stretching up so tall that I might have to get creative in the coming weeks! Fruit production is well underway, and it’s absolutely amazing to watch the canopy fill out as these girls reach their potential. Aptus Holland Pack Unboxing & New Additions This week kicked off with a big arrival: the Aptus Holland nutrient pack! 🙌 I couldn’t wait to share the unboxing with you all; there’s a video up where I go through all the goodies, so check it out if you haven’t yet! Between the photos and videos, you’ll be able to see just how well these nutrients are already feeding these green beauties. Having a blast sharing more content lately—I’m in the zone with editing and creating, so get ready for even more shares! 🌡️ Environmental Control and Fine-Tuning the Reservoir pH Temps this week have been holding around 27.2°C with RH at 65.2% and CO2 at 800 ppm, creating a VPD of 1.26 for ideal flower development. The lighting intensity is at 833 PPFD, and the solution in the reservoir is fine-tuned to a pH of 6.22, EC of 475, with a temp of 21.8°C. Let’s talk pH in the reservoir: it’s a dynamic process, and I’m constantly adjusting it to keep everything at the right level. The pH tends to rise throughout the week, and each day, I work it back down, fine-tuning it to keep those plants happy and balanced. Managing pH is truly a hands-on job, and it’s worth every moment. I love staying on top of it for optimal nutrient uptake—it’s all about consistent effort and keeping that perfect range dialed in. Leaf Maintenance & Selective Defoliation These leaves are HUGE and gorgeous, creating a lush canopy that’s nearly too perfect! I’ve been taking a few leaves here and there, focusing on leaves that may be blocking light from reaching lower parts of the plant. Selective defoliation at this stage is key because it opens up airflow and allows light to penetrate deep, boosting energy distribution across the whole plant. Big, healthy leaves mean we’re getting excellent photosynthesis, but a gentle, strategic defoliation can guide that energy toward those developing buds. Leaf removal is all about balance, giving the plant space to breathe and thrive while still maximizing growth in flower! 🌐 TrolMaster + App – Real-Time Precision Huge shoutout to the TrolMaster system and the app—keeping everything in sync and at peak performance is honestly effortless with this ecosystem. The app provides a full overview of each environmental parameter, allowing me to make real-time adjustments as needed and track trends over time. The precision here is unbeatable, giving me complete control over temps, humidity, CO2, and VPD, ensuring my girls are in a controlled paradise 24/7. What I love most is how the app records everything automatically, so I always know exactly where things stand without having to keep separate records. If you haven’t tried TrolMaster yet, it’s a total game-changer for any grow setup! 💥 Shoutouts & Gratitude Massive shoutout to TrolMaster and Aptus Holland for powering this grow with tech and nutrition that’s second to none. And, of course, gratitude to Pro-Mix for the superb growing medium and to the seed banks behind the genetics. We’re running strong thanks to each of you. And to the whole community—thank you, everyone, from new friends to seasoned followers, lovers to haters. Your energy, whatever form it comes in, is all part of this journey, and I’m so grateful for it all. Special shoutout this week to my brother Daggadna—head over to IG and give him a follow!
