This plant during her life have passed trough many issues but she overcame them all and she express an incredible vigor. This week I just added some straw on the ground and I have watered with a solution of EM that I made, also a light solution of molassa have been added to the foliage OMG is not even possible to make a diary longer than 30 weeks here lol 555555

? 8×8 Adventure – Week 10 Blueberry Muffin – Pheno B The Small Delight Continues to Surprise Us 💚🌸 Hello everyone, and welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And last but certainly not least... Here comes our second Blueberry Muffin. If you've been following both phenotypes, you already know that these two girls may share the same genetics, but they certainly didn't receive the same instruction manual. 😂 And this week, Pheno B continues to play the same card she's been playing since the beginning: "I'm small. I'm slow. But look how beautiful I am." And honestly... She has a point. Because compared with the rest of the room, this girl is slow as fuck. 😂 But she's also becoming an incredibly beautiful, compact and increasingly dense flowering plant. So let's give this little delight the spotlight she deserves. ──────────────────────── 🌸 Week 10 – The Small Delight Pheno B continues to be one of the most compact plants in the entire room. At approximately 75 cm, she isn't trying to compete with the taller girls. She's not racing toward the ceiling. She's not stretching dramatically. She's simply building. Slowly. Quietly. And beautifully. That's actually one of the most fascinating things about having so many different genetics growing together. Some plants seem determined to conquer the room. Others seem perfectly happy occupying their little corner and making the most of it. Blueberry Muffin Pheno B definitely belongs to the second group. She's small. She's compact. She's increasingly dense. And she's absolutely covered in developing flowers. So maybe... small isn't such a bad thing after all. ?🌸 ──────────────────────── 🌿 Compact Doesn't Mean Unproductive This is something that's becoming increasingly obvious with her. Her size doesn't tell the whole story. She's not particularly tall, but she's building a very compact flowering structure. The branches are carrying numerous flowering sites, the flowers are becoming more defined, and the plant is gradually developing that dense appearance we've been watching for. She's basically concentrating everything into a smaller package. And I really like that. Because the purpose of this project was never to see which plant could become the tallest. It was to see what the different genetics would do when given the same opportunity. And Pheno B is showing us exactly what she wants to do. She's telling us: "I'm going to take my time." "I'm going to stay compact." "And I'm going to make it beautiful." Fair enough, girl. You do you. 😂💚 ──────────────────────── 🌸 The Flowers Keep Developing The most important change isn't her height anyway. It's what's happening at the flowering sites. And those are looking fantastic. The flowers continue to gain structure and definition, with fresh pistils covering the developing buds and the individual sites becoming increasingly substantial. There's a very noticeable difference between looking at her now and looking back at the early flowering photographs. She's no longer simply starting flower. She's building it. And because she's so compact, the flowers appear packed throughout her structure. This is where that small size becomes particularly interesting. Instead of putting a huge amount of energy into vertical expansion, she's gradually turning that compact architecture into a flowering structure. She's still moving slowly compared with some of her sisters... But she's definitely moving. And that's what matters. ──────────────────────── 💡 The LED Canopy – Feeding Her With Photons This week I also want to give the lighting another proper spotlight, because across these individual diaries we're seeing something fascinating. The Future of Grow LEDs continue providing the main artificial sun over the room. And every day, millions upon millions of photons arrive at the canopy. Those photons are the starting point for the energy that drives photosynthesis. But what I particularly enjoy about this setup is that we're not thinking about the canopy as a completely flat surface. The plants have depth. They have upper leaves. Inner growth. Lower flowers. Different angles. Different orientations. Different distances from the light. And that's where the additional contribution from Lumiflora becomes particularly interesting. By bringing light into areas that naturally receive less direct illumination, we're trying to make better use of the three-dimensional structure of the plants. Not simply: "More light." But: "More useful light reaching more of the plant." And with a compact plant like Pheno B, that's particularly interesting. Her flowers are packed into a relatively small structure. So managing how photons interact with that structure becomes another part of the equation. ──────────────────────── ☀️ The Plant Doesn't Know What Brand the Light Is One thing I always find fascinating about lighting is that the plant doesn't care about the logo on the fixture. She cares about photons. Where they arrive. How many arrive. How consistently they arrive. And whether the rest of the environment allows her to actually use them. That's why lighting can't really be separated from everything else. Light interacts with: 🌡️ Temperature 💧 Water availability 🥥 Root-zone conditions 💨 CO₂ 🌿 Leaf health ⚗️ Nutrition 🌸 Developmental stage Everything is connected. And right now, we're giving Pheno B a strong and consistent artificial sun while maintaining the rest of the environment as steadily as possible. She's responding in her own way. Which, apparently, means: very slowly. 😂 But beautifully. ──────────────────────── ? Her Own Little Architecture If I had to describe this phenotype in one sentence, I'd probably say: She's becoming a little compact powerhouse. Not a huge plant. Not a dramatic plant. Not the plant that's going to win a height competition. But she's developing a very interesting architecture. The flowers are sitting close together. The branches are supporting a dense structure. The foliage remains lush. And the overall plant is becoming increasingly compact as flowering progresses. That's her personality. And I'm not trying to change it. This is one of the things I enjoy most about phenotype work. You can guide a plant. You can manage it. You can shape its environment. But eventually... the genetics introduce themselves. And Pheno B has introduced herself quite clearly. "I'm the small one." 😂?💚 ──────────────────────── 💧 Keeping the Roots and Irrigation Consistent While the plant above the substrate is taking her sweet time, the root environment continues receiving the same consistent attention. Current watering remains around: 💧 1.3 L per plant / 24 hours The solution is approximately: 🌡️ 25°C and the substrate is around: 🌡️ 26°C The idea remains exactly the same as throughout this project: Keep the root environment as consistent as possible and allow the plant to determine what she does with it. We're not increasing inputs simply because we think a plant should be growing faster. We're watching. We're measuring. We're responding. And with Pheno B, that patience is particularly important. Because if we tried to force her to behave like one of the faster phenotypes... we'd be fighting the very characteristic that makes her interesting. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Nutrition – Staying Steady The feeding strategy also remains stable. We're continuing with: • Terra Bloom — 2.2 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Power Buds — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • pH Plus / Lemon Kick — as required Current readings are approximately: ⚗️ pH — 6.0 ⚡ EC — 2.0 mS/cm And once again... She looks happy. Beautiful green foliage. Healthy flowering development. No obvious reason to start changing everything simply because another week has passed. The best feeding strategy isn't necessarily the one that changes the most. Sometimes it's the one that gives the plant exactly what she's already responding well to. So for now... We stay the course. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Summer Is Still Summer The environmental conditions remain very close to our previous week. We're currently around: • 🌡️ Day temperature: 29.9°C • 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C • 💧 RH: 60% • 🥥 Substrate temperature: 26°C • 💦 Solution temperature: 25°C • ⚗️ pH: 6.0 • ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: ~693 ppm • 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 • 💧 Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h • ? Pot size: 15 L • 📏 Height: ~75 cm Summer continues to make absolute temperature consistency a little challenging. Some days are warmer. Some days are cooler. Sometimes we're fighting for that perfect number and the weather simply says: "No." 😂☀️ So we're doing what we can. The variables we can control are kept as stable as possible. And rather than obsessing over a single degree here or there, we're looking at the whole environment and, most importantly... the plant. And the plant looks good. ──────────────────────── 🌬️ Dense Is Beautiful – But We Still Watch the Canopy As Pheno B becomes more compact and increasingly dense, canopy management remains something we're keeping an eye on. The plant doesn't need dramatic intervention right now. The major structural work has already been done. At this stage, we're mostly observing how the flowers and foliage develop within that compact architecture. The more dense the flowers become, the more important it becomes to maintain good airflow through the room and around the plants. We're not trying to turn her into an empty skeleton. Quite the opposite. We're preserving that beautiful lush structure while making sure the environment around it remains manageable. It's a balance. And that's what we're watching. ──────────────────────── 💡 Every Flower Has a Different Relationship With the Light Another thing I love about photographing her at this stage is seeing how differently the flowers sit within the canopy. Some are facing directly toward the LEDs. Others are tucked between leaves. Some receive additional light from the inner-canopy setup. Others are naturally more shaded. That's normal. A plant isn't a perfectly engineered solar panel. It's a three-dimensional living structure. And our lighting strategy is simply trying to give that structure the best possible access to photons without unnecessarily disturbing the plant's natural architecture. Future of Grow provides the main light. Lumiflora helps bring additional illumination into the less-exposed areas. And then... the plant decides what to do with it. That's the part we can't program. And honestly? That's the fun part. ──────────────────────── 📸 The Camera Is Starting to Tell the Story The photographs this week are another reminder that size really doesn't tell the whole story. Look at those flowers. Look at the structure. Look at the density. Look at the colour. This girl may be slow... but she certainly isn't boring. 😂? And that's why these individual diaries are so valuable. If we only photographed the entire room, Pheno B might disappear into the bigger picture. But when we isolate her... we can appreciate what she's actually doing. A compact flowering plant slowly becoming denser. Week after week. She's writing her own story. And I'm very happy to let her take her time. ──────────────────────── 🧠 Slow Doesn't Mean Behind This is probably my favourite observation this week. Pheno B is slow compared with the rest of the room. There's no question about it. Some of her sisters are moving much faster. But that doesn't mean she's behind. She's simply developing according to her own rhythm. There's a difference. A plant doesn't know that another phenotype next door is growing faster. She doesn't care. She has her own genetic programme. Her own structure. Her own timing. And our job is not to make every plant identical. It's to understand them. And this little Blueberry Muffin is teaching us patience. Lots of patience. 😂 ──────────────────────── 🔮 Looking Ahead From here, I'm keeping things simple. No unnecessary changes. No chasing height. No trying to force her to become something she's not. We're going to continue providing: 💡 Quality photons 💧 Consistent irrigation 🥥 Stable nutrition 🌡️ A controlled environment 🌬️ Good airflow ⏳ And plenty of time Then we'll see where she takes us. The flowers are continuing to develop. The plant remains beautifully green. Her structure is becoming increasingly compact and dense. And if she wants to take her time... well... we have time. ──────────────────────── 💚 Final Thoughts – Small, Slow & Beautiful Every room has those plants that immediately demand attention. The big ones. The fast ones. The dramatic ones. And then there are plants like Blueberry Muffin Pheno B. She quietly sits there. She doesn't stretch like crazy. She doesn't try to dominate the canopy. She doesn't rush. She simply keeps doing her thing. Slowly. Very slowly. 😂 But beautifully. She's becoming an increasingly compact flowering plant, and I really like the direction she's heading. The lighting is giving her plenty of photons. The irrigation remains consistent. The nutrition remains steady. The environment is being kept as stable as summer allows. And now... we let her continue. Because maybe the small delight doesn't need to become a giant. Maybe she just needs to become the best version of herself. And that's exactly what we're going to let her do. ?🌸💚 ──────────────────────── 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for giving us the opportunity to explore these Blueberry Muffin genetics and discover just how different two phenotypes from the same cultivar can become. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden throughout this flowering journey. A massive thank you to Future of Grow for providing the main LED lighting and giving these girls the photons they need to keep building. And thank you to Lumiflora for helping illuminate the deeper and less-exposed areas of the canopy and making this lighting experiment even more interesting. Thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure on GrowDiaries. This project continues to remind me why I love documenting plants individually. Same genetics. Same room. Same general conditions. And yet... completely different personalities. Blueberry Muffin Pheno B may be the smallest and slowest girl in this particular race. But she's beautiful. She's becoming dense. She's developing flowers. And she's doing it her way. So let's give our little delight the spotlight. She deserves it. Until next week... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💚?🌸

Week 5 (Day 35) Flower- the week was uneventful. Building stacks, no issues, it’s been rainy here so the humidity has been high, the old dehumidifier is getting a workout 💪 I lowered the light an inch, might not seem like much, but I’ll watch and see if they can handle it. Full feed of nutrients tomorrow when the lights come on😎

18/02: The plants sugar leaves are starting to turn yellow being a good sign they are nearly done. Added more cable ties as again the colas are getting too heavy for the actual stalks. Should be a good harvest. Few more days on the nutes then to flush.

I'm kinda late on the update, week 11 finished on sunday 4, now is feb 9th. Last time i gave them nutrients was on sunday jan 28th, and i cut them down on feb 6th. almost a week and a half of flush. Each plant yielded 65g of wet buds (i forgot to take wet weight photography), i will update the harvest when they are done drying and before curing. Stay alert 😉

4/8 super plump and thick. Its like a square rock hard prism shaped top cola. Water intake has slowed quite a bit. The end is nearing. I give it another couple weeks 4/12 shes super pretty. Orange Pistils, dark green buds with light purple,pinkish tones on some of the bud leaves. Reminds me of the gorilla skittles online picture

1- getting nice and thick with a stronger smell. Watered with flowering chemicals. Tent at 24.6°C and RH at 47% today Away for the weekend. Can’t wait to see how she will look when I get back 5- Came back to fairly dry soil and somehow forgot to turn my dehumidifier back on after emptying it. So the RH was at 77% when I got back. I got everything back within the range I want it now. 24.5°C and 46% RH. Watered plant with flowering nutrients. 7- Just amazed by how fast it grows. Seems like every time I look at it, it keeps getting thicker. I have some sort of fascination with the main cola. Just love taking pictures of it. I ordered a USB microscope that I should be getting today. Looking forward to see those trichomes magnified.

So we are nearing the final laps now and the oCoQ- doctrine shows again how much the trichomes- armour could be triggered and maximized by the right amount of lightstress, defoliation and high EC in combination with some other tactics. Without PH drift with using biological fermentation adds in the Autopot- tray and - tank. Right now the average "thirst" of one plant in 24hrs is 1.75ltrs from the tank (average of all plants). I am staying on a EC between 1.9-1.95 in the tank, I do not want to have too much salts in the substrate for the final weeks, normally my EC would be around 2.1-2.2 in this time of flowering. Lets see how the second half of flowering will work, hopefully nothing goes wrong.......fingers crossed.😇😇😅😅

Der Stretch hat bereits begonnen und die Damen beginnen schön zu duften.

Water week5 26.7.22

13-09-30 Esta semana no se ha rectificado PH y aguantado con los 18 L toda la semana. Ya están las 3 floración pero se nota que la planta que se hizo apical florece antes y más uniforme. Se cambia de solución y se lava las raíces. Se baja 0.2 ms y PH 6.5. Luego se vuelve alimentar con una solución como hay en los datos de esta semana. A partir de esta semana se incluye en el menú revienta cogollos. 14-09-20 Conduc: 1.78 ms PH: 6.10 Temp: 24°C 17-09-20 Conduc: 2.1 ms PH: 5.85 Temp: 25°C

Not much to talk about this week. Stretch is over, buds are beginning, only GG12 has any smell yet. Say hi and come again next week.

Feed Log: D: 96 - 10L - Si,[0ml],Vega[0],Flores [41ml],INPUT; [1.328 EC],[6.0 pH],Ca/Mg[2.5g & 1.5g]- RUNOFF; 3.8L pH [6.2] ,[1.998 EC] Previous irrigation: D:93 Doing alright, flowers are packing on more size 🌞

HOLY GOD ..... WHAT MUSIC! BOYS ! MY FRIENDS ARE STRETCHING AND GAINING WEIGHT !!! VAMOS! LET'S GO TO GET THE PRIZES IN THE RANKING AND BREAK THE PODIUM! HAPPY AND ABUNDANT HARVESTS FOR EVERYONE

Hello, this week and the next ones will be peaceful. It's +-34 days of the girls' life. About 30 more days and we'll switch to flowering. The smell is delicious. I hope that the girls will also give me lush buds. Due to the use of new plant cultivation techniques, I have small concerns about growth, but I hope that my technique will work and I will base on it. (34 days of feminized seeds and the stem at the base has a circumference of 4.5 cm 😁. I should also start fertilization now, but it's already over. If I waited, I would have a problem with bending the stems. Best regards for all Smoke weed every day ✌️

10/20/2020 Starting week 4 of flower the top dress I did should be kicking in this week, watering once a week till 5-10% run off.
