I have been away for a week, had setup a drip system that watered every other day. Noticed a strong yellowing, lost a bit track of the feeding since i was away for 8 days, and have used a mile concentration of nutes, no recharge. I decided to live it be as is and start flushing, in two days, today will be the last feeding, and will be done with overdrive an the base. On top of that I have ordered a floraflex round matrix, a bubbler from them.

💜 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno B Week 11 | The Little Frosty Queen Is Starting to Fill Out ❄️💜👑 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And our little Purple Haze Pheno B... She's still not in a hurry. 😂💜 But she's moving. And honestly? That's enough. Because when I look at her this week, I don't see a plant that's standing still. I see a plant that's slowly, steadily, beautifully building herself. She's still one of the smaller girls in the room. She's still compact. She's still very different from her sister. She's still doing everything in her own particular rhythm. But now... I'm starting to see something I really like. She's getting fatter. 👀💜🌸 The flowers are beginning to gain more structure. The plant is starting to look more substantial. And that beautiful frost that has been one of her defining characteristics? Still absolutely everywhere. ❄️❄️❄️ So this week... let's give our little Frosty Queen the spotlight again. Because she deserves it. ──────────────────────── 🌱 WEEK 11 – MOVING FORWARD, HER WAY ──────────────────────── Last week we talked about how she wasn't exactly moving fast. And honestly... that hasn't suddenly changed. 😂 She's not going to wake up tomorrow and decide: "Right, boys and girls, I'm going to catch up with everybody." That's not her personality. She's moving at her own pace. But she's moving. And that's the important part. The flowers are developing. The structure is becoming more obvious. The buds are starting to gain some additional size. And the overall plant is slowly becoming more substantial. She's not exploding. She's not racing. She's simply progressing. One little step at a time. And I actually really enjoy watching that. Because not every plant needs to be dramatic. Some plants tell their story quietly. And this girl? She's definitely a quiet storyteller. 💜🌿 ──────────────────────── 🍑 THE LITTLE BUSH IS STARTING TO GET FATTER ──────────────────────── Okay... THIS is the part I'm particularly happy about this week. She's starting to fill out. 😂🌸 When you look at her structure now, there's a little more substance developing around those flowering sites. The flowers are becoming more defined. They're beginning to gain some volume. And the plant is starting to look less like a collection of individual flowering points... and more like a flowering plant with an actual structure developing around them. That's a really nice transition to watch. Because earlier in the run, so much of her identity was: "She's small." "She's compact." "She's the little bush." And she still is. But now we're starting to add another description: She's the little bush... that is beginning to fill out. 👑💜🌸 And I like that very much. ──────────────────────── ❄️ STILL SUPER FROSTY ──────────────────────── And then... there's the frost. 😂❄️ This girl has absolutely not forgotten what she's good at. She remains one of the most visually frosty phenotypes in this room. The trichomes continue to give the flowers and surrounding sugar leaves that beautiful sparkling appearance. And the closer you look... the more there is to see. It's almost funny. She may not be the largest plant. She may not have the biggest flowers. She may not be moving at the fastest pace. But then you put the camera on her... and suddenly: "Whoa." 😂📸❄️ There she is. The little Frost Queen. And that's something I really love about phenotype hunting. A plant doesn't have to dominate the room in size to stand out. Sometimes one particular characteristic becomes so strong that it creates an entirely different identity. And with this girl... that frost is definitely part of her identity. ──────────────────────── 👭 TWO SISTERS – COMPLETELY DIFFERENT STORIES ──────────────────────── This is where Purple Haze Pheno B becomes especially interesting. Because her sister... Purple Haze Pheno A... is moving quickly. She's stacking. She's developing. She's got that "don't blink" energy. 😂🔥💜 And Pheno B? She's looking at her sister and saying: "Good for you." 😂 "I'll get there when I'm ready." And honestly... I love it. Same genetic line. Same room. Same lighting. Same general environment. Same 12/12 schedule. Same nutritional foundation. And yet... completely different plants. Pheno A has her own expression. Pheno B has hers. One is giving us speed. The other is giving us compact structure and frost. And neither one needs to become the other. That's exactly what makes this experiment so interesting. ──────────────────────── 🌿 VERY DIFFERENT – AND THAT'S THE POINT ──────────────────────── Sometimes people hear "same genetics" and expect the plants to look almost identical. But that's not what we're seeing here. Not even close. These two girls share their genetic family... but they've expressed themselves very differently. Pheno A has that more balanced, fast-moving flowering architecture. Pheno B is shorter. More compact. Denser in her own way. And increasingly defined by that heavy frost. Looking at them side by side is almost like looking at two different interpretations of the same idea. Same genetic language. Different accent. 😂💜 And that's why I love having both of them in the same 8×8. The room becomes the constant. The genetics become the variable. And the plants tell us the rest. ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE STRUCTURE IS STARTING TO SPEAK ──────────────────────── This is probably the other big observation for me this week. Her structure is becoming easier to read. Earlier, there were plenty of little flowering sites. Now we're beginning to see how those sites relate to one another. The flowers are starting to occupy the structure more clearly. They're becoming more substantial. And the plant is beginning to show us what that compact architecture is going to look like as flowering progresses. She's not stretching dramatically. She's not trying to create huge vertical distances. She's building within the space she has. And I think that's beautiful. She's making her own little world. Compact. Dense. Frosty. And increasingly full. 💜🌿🌸 ──────────────────────── 🚶‍♀️ SLOW DOESN'T MEAN NOTHING IS HAPPENING ──────────────────────── This is something I want to emphasize because it's easy to look at a slower plant and think: "She's not doing much." But look closer. She's changing. The flowers are developing. The structure is becoming clearer. The buds are gaining volume. The resin remains extremely visible. The plant is continuing to work. She's simply not doing it at the same speed as some of her neighbours. And that's okay. Actually... it's fascinating. Because the 8×8 Adventure isn't about making every plant race toward the same finish line. It's about watching how each plant gets there. Some sprint. Some jog. Some walk. And some apparently stop for coffee along the way. 😂☕🌿 Purple Haze Pheno B? She's taking the scenic route. ──────────────────────── 💡 SAME PHOTONS – HER OWN INTERPRETATION ──────────────────────── And once again... the room hasn't changed specifically for her. We're still working with the same upgraded lighting setup. The two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures remain part of the room. We've reduced their output to approximately: 💡 ~59% power from the plug giving us around: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with intensity naturally changing according to plant height and position. And this girl is receiving those same photons as everybody else. The photons don't care whether she's fast. They don't care whether she's compact. They don't care whether she's the little bush. They arrive. Her leaves intercept them. Her photosynthetic machinery uses that energy. And she decides what to do with it. 😂☀️🌿 And apparently... she's decided to build a very frosty little plant. ──────────────────────── ☀️ MORE CAPABILITY – CONTROLLED OUTPUT ──────────────────────── I continue to really like the lighting setup we've created in this room. The additional fixtures give us more capability without requiring us to run them at full power. That's important. We're not chasing maximum output simply because the equipment can provide it. We're creating flexibility. More available light. More ability to distribute photons across the canopy. And then controlling the intensity to where we actually want it. Approximately 59% from the plug. Around 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. And the plants are responding in their own ways. That's the interesting part. Same light. Different biological response. And Purple Haze Pheno B is definitely showing us her own interpretation. ──────────────────────── 📸 THE CAMERA STILL LOVES THIS GIRL ──────────────────────── Honestly... I think this girl is becoming more and more fun to photograph. 😂📸❄️ Why? Because she has so much detail. She's compact enough that there are flowers everywhere within a relatively small space. And when you start looking closely... there's frost everywhere. You move the camera. Another flower. Another patch of resin. Another little structure. Another angle. Another detail. It's almost like exploring a tiny forest. And that's what makes macro photography such a beautiful part of this project. From a distance: "Small flowering plant." Through the lens: "Excuse me... what is THIS?" 😂🔬💎 There's always something hiding in the details. ──────────────────────── 💎 THE FROST IS STILL HER SIGNATURE ──────────────────────── If I had to describe Pheno B with one visual characteristic... it would be frost. ❄️💜 It's simply one of the first things I notice. The resin-covered sugar leaves. The sparkle around the flowers. The little crystalline structures catching the light. It gives the plant a completely different appearance from her sister. And I think that's what makes her so memorable. She doesn't need to be the tallest. She doesn't need to be the fastest. She's got her own signature. And that signature is getting increasingly obvious. ──────────────────────── ⚗️ FEEDING – SAME ROOM, SAME FOUNDATION ──────────────────────── As with the rest of the room, we've made the same nutritional adjustment this week. 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.3 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH adjusted as required Current solution values remain around: ⚗️ pH – ~6.02 ⚡ EC – ~2.14 mS/cm And again... we're not creating a special feeding strategy simply because she's moving more slowly. We're watching the plant. We're looking at her overall development. We're keeping the room consistent. And she's continuing to move forward. That's enough for me. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ WEEK 11 ROOM CONDITIONS ──────────────────────── The room continues around: 🌡️ Day temperature: ~26.5°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~26°C 💧 RH: ~61% ⚗️ pH: ~6.02 ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm 💦 Nutrient solution: ~25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~25°C 💨 CO₂: ~693 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 💧 Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h Same room. Same environment. Same general care. Different phenotype. And once again... that's the experiment. ──────────────────────── 🌿 LET HER TAKE HER TIME ──────────────────────── I'm really enjoying this stage with her because there's no need to rush. She's not showing us that she wants to sprint. So why would we force her? She's developing. She's building. She's getting fatter. She's getting frostier. She's becoming more defined. That's enough. Sometimes growing is about knowing when to intervene. And sometimes it's about knowing when to leave a beautiful plant alone. With Pheno B... I'm very happy to let her continue doing what she's already doing. 😂🌱 She knows her rhythm. ──────────────────────── 🌸 SMALL PLANT – BIG PRESENCE ──────────────────────── This girl is a perfect example of why I don't like judging a plant purely by size. She's not enormous. She's not filling the entire vertical space. She's not trying to dominate the tent. But she has presence. You notice her. And when you get close... you really notice her. 😂💜❄️ She's beautiful. She's frosty. She's compact. She's becoming fuller. And she's developing her own very distinctive flowering structure. That's enough to make her interesting. More than enough. ──────────────────────── 🔬 ANOTHER WEEK OF PHENOTYPE HUNTING ──────────────────────── Every week, this experiment gives me another reason to appreciate genetic variation. Two Purple Haze girls. One room. And yet... look at them. One is moving quickly. One is moving more slowly. One is building a different architecture. One is staying compact. One is developing a different overall flower expression. And Pheno B is showing us something particularly beautiful: You don't need to rush to make progress. Sometimes slow development creates its own kind of beauty. And I think we're starting to see that now. ──────────────────────── 🔮 WHAT COMES NEXT? ──────────────────────── That's the question. How much more will these flowers fill out? How much more structure will become visible? How much more resin will she develop? And will her pace remain slow... or will she decide to surprise us again? 😂💜 I honestly don't know. And I'm perfectly happy with that. Because we're not here to force the answer. We're here to watch it happen. Week by week. Photograph by photograph. Flower by flower. And right now... the story is beautiful. ──────────────────────── 💭 FINAL THOUGHTS – THE LITTLE FROSTY QUEEN ──────────────────────── Week 11. Purple Haze Pheno B. Still not fast. Still not tall. Still not trying to be her sister. And honestly? Thank goodness. Because she's beautiful exactly as she is. 💜❄️👑 She's moving forward. She's beginning to get fatter. Her flowering structure is becoming more obvious. The resin remains one of the most impressive characteristics of this phenotype. And her compact architecture gives her an identity that's completely different from Pheno A. Same family. Different expression. Same room. Different story. Same photons. Different response. And that's exactly why we're doing this. The 8×8 Adventure isn't about creating twelve identical plants. It's about giving different genetics a shared stage... and watching what they decide to do with it. Purple Haze Pheno B has decided: "Keep me compact. Keep me frosty. And I'll get there when I'm ready." 😂💜❄️ Fair enough, girl. Take your time. Build your flowers. Fill out your structure. Keep catching those photons. And keep showing us just how beautiful your particular expression can be. Because this little bush? She's becoming one hell of a beautiful little bush. 👑💜🌿❄️🔥 So let's give her the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's not compare her against anybody else's clock. And let's simply enjoy watching this frosty little Queen become more and more herself. ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU ──────────────────────── As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share them with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Purple Haze genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover two such different expressions from the same genetic family. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the room. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to explore this expanded lighting setup. 💡☀️🌿 Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the deeper and lower areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by to see what these girls are doing. It genuinely means a lot. 💚 This adventure continues to show us just how different plants can become when they're given the same general environment. And Purple Haze Pheno B? She's proving that she doesn't need to be fast. She doesn't need to be tall. She doesn't need to compete with her sister. She's got her own rhythm. Her own architecture. Her own personality. And her own beautiful frost-covered story. 💜❄️👑 She's getting fatter. She's getting more defined. She's still moving forward. And she's still shining. So let's give this little Frost Queen her moment. Let's let her shine. Let's keep those photons flying. And let's see how much more this beautiful little girl has left to show us. Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle... where one sister races, the other takes the scenic route, and both somehow manage to make us stop and stare. 😂💜👑❄️

Well there is a reason why there was a lack of updates... Unfortunately it seems like I didn't clean my tent well enough and I also didn't change the carbon filter. I changed both of that (hopefully)... at least the carbon filter is brand new. #2 had to leave and #1 is also gone. After a few days of being down and not caring so much about the plants, I placed the King's Juice Auto #3 outdoors and hope that because of the topping, she is still so early into flower, that she might've not been pollinated from the last run. She will be placed back into the tent tomorrow and let's pray she wasn't pollinated already and let's pray I cleaned the tent carefully enough.

*This is not pictures of the 4 leaf baby*. That one died…moving on With This OG Kush auto pictured I haven’t done anything other than a few feedings and some water. I didn’t do any lst, topping or stress training. I am using air pots with some vermiculite, a bit of worm compost mix from local store, and a dash of 20/20/20 when it was a seedling.

Did a little cleaning up the bottom this week and I am loving this plant! She’s my favorite of the two fast flowering photos I am running— just a healthy stunning plant! Started with bloom nutes this week and she is truly a fast flowering photo! I usually see these results on week three/four and it’s week 2! ✌️🏻💚

Day 56 - She grew 8cm taller this week. Lots and lots of flower sites forming 😍 Day 56 - Tent configuration changed: 4x more CREE CXB3590's have been added and 4x blurple LED things removed. Lights now consist of 8x CXB3590's & 1x 1000W HID with flower bulb.

I did the last and final defoliation; I also I tutored. Looking forward to flowering.😗

Blütewoche 6: Die Woche begann okay. Das Vergilben ist nicht gravierend schlimmer geworden.. 🙏 Also sollte es hoffentlich doch bis zur Ernte reichen 😁 .... Ich hatte jedoch das Gefühl, dass es irgendwie nicht so wirklich weitergeht.. Die Buds wurden nicht sonderlich dicker, bei 3 von 4 Pflanzen blieb der Stretch fast völlig aus.. Also nochmal jemanden fragen der Ahnung hat. Einen Tag darauf bekam ich Besuch von meinem Kollegen, welcher den Grow das erste mal sah. Er schaute sich die Pflanzen etwas gründlicher an... und sagte, dass dort eine Stelle verdächtig aussieht... Nach weiterer Begutachtung stand fest. Es sind 2 sichtbare Pollensäcke versteckt an der hinteren linken Pflanze... Er beruhigte mich und sagte ich solle nicht durchdrehen.. wir schauen uns es morgen früh im hellen an und entfernen die Säcke vorsichtig.. Das Problem mit dem ruhig bleiben ist nur ... dass es mir nicht so liegt, wenn ich meine gesamte Arbeit schlagartig als gefärdet sehe... 😓😐😶 Am nächsten Tag stellte sich heraus, meine Panik war nicht unbegründet ... kurzgesagt ich habs leider trotz aller Mühen verkackt 😓😓😓 Alles ist voller Samen.. jede Pflanze wurde von der kleinen Skywalker bestäubt. Von unten bis in die Headbuds... Aber Hey bleib locker, kann passieren, lernste draus und gut ist ... Das ist was man in solchen Momenten gerne hört 😡 Das Fazit ist jedoch... Genauso ist es. Es kann passieren. Man kann nicht alles von vornherein wissen. Man kann nicht alles perfekt machen ohne es einmal geübt oder fehler gemacht zu haben... Es ist einfach zu viel, dass man einfach wissen müsste. Ich bin Perfektionist durch und durch .. Aber diesmal war es gaaanz weit entfernt von perfekt 😩 Die ganze Zeit, Nerven, Mühe, Vorfreude und vorallem das Geld .. alles erstmal futsch.. Aber eine Menge dazugelernt habe ich... Hoffentlich kann ich das nächste mal mehr davon richtig anwenden 🙏 Für mich ist der Grow hiermit Emotional und aus wirtschaftlicher Sicht als gescheitert zu betrachten. 💤 Alle Pflanzen werden nun wieder gemeinsam in die erste Growbox unter 200W gestellt um ihre letzten Wochen hoffentlich ganz schnell hinter sich zu bringen.. damit sie mir aus den Augen verschwinden 😕 Die neuen Samen sind bereits eingesetzt und werden mir hoffentlich etwas mehr Glück bringen! 🙏 Vielen Dank fürs Lesen. Ich hoffe bei Euch läuft alles super 😉🙏 Melde mich wieder zur " Ernte " ... Ciao Ciao 👋

⏳🍁 The Endless RED Garden 🍁⏳ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 🍊 3.2 All regular, it seems they are in a hurry to bloom.

M1 looking good going to only follow her for the remainder of this Diary Looks like easy light suggestions for training from heat on out !! I love how the branches are evening out !! Good heavy watering push out ild stale air and draw in some new! Looking nice about ready to lash the tops down 6 nice snake heads! Started tying the top two down

Start of week 4

Welcome to week 4! The plants are really growing along now so we will be looking to transplant as soon as possible into their final homes ( 5 gallon ) I will be topping the plants this week to get some of that branching going and we will be looking to start the flowering process sooner then later. Im aiming for 2 weeks more of veg then flower time if things are in order. Huge shout out to @MarsHydroLED for allowing me to grow with their kick ass equipment! Huge huge shout out goes to all my followers and to the people who stop into the diary alike you guys are kick ass keep on keeping on! -The Projexx Day#22 Pictures N/A Things are starting to grow along nicely , aiming to transplant in a few days! Day#23 Pictures N/A Transplanted plants into their 5 gallon homes except for 2 went into 7s and 2 stayed in their same buckets. Watered 1/2L each at 550PPM Day#24 Plants are digging their new homes , we took some video action. Its getting hard to fit all the plants in 1 frame haha. Day#25 Pictures N/A Plants are just growing along , going to top in the near future. Day#26 Watered ladies 1L each from the bottom at 550PPM. Going to be bottom feeding from here to see if it makes a difference. Day#27 Topped the plants let the branching begin! Day#28 Ladies look unhappy but thats them adjusting for their new nodes! Recap: Things are pushing strong this week we topped the plants and they are growing like nothings happened. I dont know that Im a fan of bottom feeding the plants but well see how things develop in the near future, I may have to practice the technique until im comfy with it as I would normally top feed.

Crazy growth this week

Defoliation and supercrop a day before 24 hours of darkness. 12/12 following. Flip @ wee6 day1 from seed

There all about to go super saiyan here soon

I've been taking off all the lower shoots coming off the main stems. I don't want to lose sight of the main colas I'm focusing on. Once we're in flower I'll start leaving more of the side branches, at this stage none will reach the light by the end of flower. I'd rather do the hard pruning now before the switch. I'm going to keep them in veg for another week. The mainline structure is working really well.

Day 7---Defoliated good bit from all plants removing afflicted leaves, looks to be typical cal/mag deficiency with ph issues. Topped off 2 big plants with ro water, added 6ml micro 6ml bloom and 3ml gro to 2 big plant ppm 900, 2 smaller plant ppm over 1000. Day 6--- Topped off all plants with RO water, added 1ml ph up to plants 1,3,4 to adjust ph. PH of plant 2 more basic than the other 3. Day 5--- Topped off biggest plant 2, added back 10ml cal mag, ppm about 600-700 will check again soon and add back some nutes. Added 1ml ph up to plants 1 and 3 , didn't adjust other two yet. Day 4--- Added 3ml cal mag to all plants as it could be lacking. Added 5ml soul grow and 5ml soul bloom to plant 1 to see something, ppm up to about 1020. Some light defoliation of afflicted leaves on all plants. Day 3---Added 5ml micro and 5ml bloom to plant 2 now at 750ppm. All plants are above 700ppm but below 900ppm. All plants showing signs of something on the leaves but IDK what, manganese? Added 3ml cal mag to biggest plants. Topped off water of 2 biggest plants. Day 2---Checked PH, more minor defoliation of afflicted leaves and to uncover a few more bud sites. Day 1--- Added about 1.5ml ph up since the waters keep going a bit acidic. Some leaves still show some issues but didn't wanna defoliate too much. IDK if it is from PH or over/under feeding plants. Added 2ml cal mag. These plants are continuing to grow and flower, 2 biggest drinking lots of water and making the water more acidic. Topped of water in buckets with RO water. Added 3ml cal mag to all plants Added 5ml micro,bloom, 3ml gro to 2 smallest plants. Added 10ml micro, bloom, 3ml gro to 2 bigger plants. Added .75ml ph up to all plant water to help the PH stay in range. TDS on all are around 800 Light defoliation of all plants to uncover bud sites and remove afflicted leaves.
