Outdoor coco 15g pots Progress: Lava cake is about week 6.5. Starting to ripen and get heavy. Buds are getting fat. Strong sweet cookie/ ice cream smell. Buds are getting more frosty. Buds are getting so heavy I installed a net on 3 of 4 and doing #4 soon. On my most mature plant - About 25-30% of pistils have turned color. Some trichomes are milky, none amber. Looks like plants are a few days apart. Marathon OG week 5 1/2. Still stacking and getting fat. Smells dank. Trichomes are showing up. The 20 gallon OG is growing into a monster. I’m still waiting for the heavy bud stacks…. Nutes: Bumping up ppm, the dry koolbloom and molasses, stopping regular koolbloom and grow. Looking to starting flushing the lava cake in a week or so. Feeding 2x a day; 3x on hot days. Weather: Had a good week of cooler temps until yesterday, when it was 97. Looking at hugs in the 80s this week, perfect. Pests: The moths and caterpillars are in full swing so I’m applying BT every morning. I’m working hard to reduce caterpillar 🐛 losses. We lost all of the top colas on a plant in another location 💔 . I’m only losing one bud at a time and not the entire colas so far. Wishing fat buds and monster harvests to all.

Had a slow growth due to my veg tent had very low humidity but they starting to bounce back to life

Start of week 4 and the washing machine looking great, got the scrogg net laid down and will be just tucking branches back under the net. After digging out the Jaffa plants which were not growing at all we realised that they came in soil not coco, after cleaning off the soil and treating with super thrive and great white, giving them a new mix of Coco and some food at 1.0ec they begin to show signs of life 🙌 Hopefully they catch-up with the washing machine. Not seeing any major signs of deficiency or toxicity atm

Everything is coming along nicely, getting some bud growth and looking better each week. I will probably add another top dressing here this week and let them do their thing.

🍮 Chem Brûlée – Pheno B Week 10 | She's Hungry for More… and She's Still Shining 🌸❄️🔥 Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And I have to admit... Chem Brûlée Pheno B is looking beautiful. Really beautiful. She's got that unmistakable personality we've been watching develop week after week, and the further we move into flower, the more clearly she's showing us exactly who she is. She's demanding. She's hungry. She's definitely not the quiet girl in the room. 😂 But she's also growing amazingly. The flower formation is getting better and better. The structure is becoming more impressive. And those developing flowers are giving us plenty of reasons to stop, grab the camera, and take another look. So this week... we're putting the spotlight right back where it belongs. On this beautiful, demanding girl. 🍮🌿🌸 🌱 Week 10 – She's Still Doing Her Thing Chem Brûlée Pheno B has never really been interested in following anybody else's schedule. And honestly? I wouldn't have it any other way. She's continued moving forward in her own rhythm, building on the structure she created earlier in the run. She's around 130 cm, and that taller, more open architecture remains one of the characteristics that immediately separates her from her sister. But now the structure is becoming secondary to what it's carrying. The flowers. And they're looking fantastic. This week, when I look at her, I don't see a plant that's simply flowering anymore. I see a plant that's building flowers with purpose. And that's a very exciting transition. 🌸 The Flower Formation Is Beautiful This is probably the first thing I want to highlight this week. Her flower formation. It's getting seriously beautiful. The developing buds are becoming much more defined, and the individual flowering sites are starting to show much more character. Those long white pistils are still reaching out everywhere, creating that almost explosive appearance around the flowers. And underneath them, the actual bud structure is becoming increasingly substantial. You can see the plant putting everything together. Layer by layer. Week by week. Flower by flower. It's still not the finished product, obviously. There's plenty of development ahead. But we're getting to that point where the imagination starts doing some of the work. You look at a flower today... and start wondering what it's going to look like several weeks from now. And with this girl? I genuinely don't know. 😂 That's what makes it fun. 🌿 That Beautiful Green Is Coming Through And there's another thing I really appreciate when I look at her now. She's looking beautifully alive. The foliage has a strong, healthy presence, and the whole plant has that feeling of being actively engaged in flowering. She's not sitting there quietly. She's working. And working hard. This phenotype has always had a different character from Pheno A, but now that we're deeper into flower, those differences are becoming even easier to appreciate. She's got her own architecture. Her own flower formation. Her own rhythm. And definitely... her own appetite. 🍽️ She's Definitely a Hungry Girl I have to admit it: this one is demanding. Looking at her progression, I get the feeling that she could happily sit down at the dinner table and ask: "Is that all?" 😂🍽️🌿 She seems to be using everything the environment is giving her incredibly enthusiastically. And while I'm not going to pretend that one visual observation tells us exactly what a plant needs, this girl certainly gives the impression that she has a strong appetite. She's growing. She's flowering. She's developing. She's capturing light. And she's putting that energy somewhere. The interesting thing is that she's doing all of this while still showing us that distinctive phenotype expression we've been following since the beginning. So rather than trying to force her into someone else's idea of what she should look like, I'm simply continuing to watch her closely. Because she's clearly got something to say. And apparently she's saying it with an appetite. 😂 💡 She's Catching Every Photon She Can And that brings us to one of my favourite subjects in these weekly reports: photons. Because when I look at this girl, I genuinely think about how much invisible energy is passing through her canopy every day. The Black Series LEDs are sending photons into the room. Those photons encounter leaves. The leaves capture what they can. And the plant uses that captured light energy to power its biological processes. We don't see the photons. We see the result. The green leaves. The developing flowers. The increasing structure. The growth. The resin. The plant itself becomes the visible record of all that invisible energy moving through the system. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B? She's clearly trying to catch every photon she can. 💡🌿 ☀️ The Canopy Is Her Solar Field I really like thinking about the canopy this way. Every leaf represents another opportunity to intercept light. Every angle matters. Every layer of the plant creates a slightly different relationship with the light above it. And this girl's architecture gives us a particularly interesting example. She's taller. She's more open. Her branches occupy different heights. Her flowers aren't all sitting in exactly the same place. So the photons entering the canopy aren't interacting with one flat surface. They're moving through a three-dimensional plant. And that's why the additional lighting within the room is so interesting to me. We're not simply thinking about the top of the plant. We're thinking about how useful light reaches different parts of the entire structure. The plant has built the architecture. The lighting provides the photons. And together... we get to watch what happens. 💡 Same Photons. Different Stories. And this is where the 8×8 Adventure gets really interesting. The photons don't know which phenotype they're hitting. The same general lighting environment is shared by the room. But look at the results. Pheno A tells one story. Pheno B tells another. Different height. Different structure. Different flower arrangement. Different foliage expression. Different appetite. Different personality. That's the beauty of having these plants growing side by side. The environment gives us a common foundation. The genetics write the individual story. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B is writing hers in a very interesting way. 🌸 She's Putting That Energy Into Flowers And when I look at the photographs this week, that's probably the most satisfying part. She's not just producing foliage. She's building flowers. The developing buds have more definition. The pistils are becoming increasingly prominent. The flower structures are becoming more substantial. And the whole plant has a sense of progression. It's one of those moments where the photographs from previous weeks become extremely valuable. Because when you see a plant every day, change can be difficult to appreciate. But put Week 5 beside Week 8... then Week 9... then Week 10... and suddenly you realize: Wow. She's really moving. 📸🌸 ❄️ And the Frost Is Joining the Party The developing resin is another part of the story that's becoming increasingly enjoyable. Those close-up photographs reveal little details that disappear completely when you're standing across the room. The sugar leaves. The pistils. The developing trichomes. The texture of the flowers. The little structures forming around the buds. It's almost like looking at an entirely different plant. And that's why macro photography has become such a big part of this adventure for me. The wide photograph tells you: where she is. The macro photograph tells you: what she's becoming. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B is becoming increasingly interesting. 🌿 Her Architecture Is Working One thing I really appreciate about this phenotype is that the architecture she created earlier in the grow is now becoming useful. She's tall. She's open. She's got flowers distributed throughout her branches. And as those flowers develop, the structure becomes easier to understand. We're not trying to make her into Pheno A. We're not trying to compress her. We're not trying to make her follow another plant's blueprint. This is her blueprint. And it's working for her. That's one of the biggest lessons this whole project continues giving me. Sometimes the best thing you can do is create a good environment... and then get out of the plant's way. 💨 Air, Space & Balance As the flowers continue developing, I'm still keeping an eye on the overall canopy. The goal remains balance. Enough foliage to support the plant. Enough space for air movement. Enough light reaching productive areas. And enough observation to notice when something actually needs attention. We're not trying to strip the plant. We're not trying to create an artificial shape. We're simply watching how the canopy develops and responding when appropriate. She's already built a beautiful structure. Now we let that structure carry her forward. ⚗️ The Environment Keeps Providing the Foundation The room remains broadly consistent: 🌡️ Day temperature: ~29.9°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~25°C 💧 Relative humidity: ~60% 🥥 Substrate temperature: ~26°C 💦 Solution temperature: ~25°C ⚗️ pH: ~6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: ~639 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 💧 Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h 📏 Height: ~130 cm And once again, the interesting thing isn't simply the numbers. It's how the plant responds to the whole environment. Chem Brûlée Pheno B is showing us that she's capable of putting a lot of that available energy toward continued flowering. She's certainly not wasting the opportunity. ⚗️ Feeding – This Girl Has an Appetite The nutrition strategy remains part of the shared-room approach: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L With pH adjustment as required. Current solution: pH ~6.0 EC ~2.0 mS/cm And this is where I want to continue paying particular attention to her. Because visually, she gives me the impression of a plant with a healthy appetite. She's eating. She's growing. She's flowering. She's using the resources available to her. That doesn't automatically mean that changing anything is necessary, but it does make her an especially interesting phenotype to watch. She's clearly telling us: "I'm hungry." 😂 And I'm listening. 📸 Behind the Lens – She Deserves the Spotlight The camera loves this girl. Seriously. 😂📸 There's something about the combination of her longer structure and developing flowers that makes her incredibly fun to photograph. You can photograph the entire plant... and appreciate the architecture. Then move closer... and suddenly you're looking at those beautiful individual flowers. Move closer again... and the entire frame becomes pistils, resin and tiny details. And that's when I really appreciate how unique she is. She's not simply another Chem Brûlée. She's this Chem Brûlée. Pheno B. Her own expression. Her own story. Her own little universe inside the 8×8. 🌿 Twelve Plants, Twelve Personalities This is still one of my favourite parts of the project. Twelve plants can share the same room... and still feel like twelve completely different characters. Some are quiet. Some are demanding. Some are tall. Some are compact. Some seem to drink like they're preparing for a marathon. Others take things a little more slowly. And then there's this girl. She's basically standing there with an empty plate saying: "More, please." 😂🍽️ But underneath the joke is something genuinely interesting. The genetics influence how each plant uses the same environment. And that's exactly what we're trying to document. We're not creating twelve completely different worlds. We're creating one environment... and observing twelve different responses. 🔮 Where Are You Going, Pheno B? And now I'm genuinely curious. Because she's giving me a feeling that there could be something very interesting waiting further down the road. The flowers are developing. The structure is established. The plant is active. She's capturing photons. She's consuming resources. She's continuing to build. So where does she go from here? I honestly don't know. And I'm not going to pretend I do. That's the fun. We'll keep watching. We'll keep photographing. We'll keep documenting. And we'll let Chem Brûlée Pheno B reveal herself. 💭 Final Thoughts – Let the Hungry Girl Shine If I had to summarize this week in a few words: Beautiful. Hungry. Unique. Chem Brûlée Pheno B is looking fantastic. Her flower formation is getting better every week. Her pistils are beautiful. Her structure is impressive. She's clearly making good use of the environment we've created. And yes... she's demanding. 😂🌿 I get the feeling she could happily take everything on the table and then ask what we're having for dessert. But that's part of her personality. And I like it. She's not trying to be Pheno A. She's not trying to be the greenest plant. She's not trying to follow anyone else's story. She's simply doing what she does. And right now, what she does is grow beautifully. The photons keep flying. The canopy keeps capturing them. The plant keeps converting that available light energy into biological work. And those flowers keep getting more interesting. So let's not rush her. Let's not try to predict the ending. Let's simply give her the spotlight... and see where she takes us. 🍮🌸❄️💡🔥 She's got an appetite. She's got personality. She's got beautiful flowers. And she's definitely got somewhere she's going. I just can't wait to see where. 🙏 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 the growing community. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Chem Brûlée genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover these different phenotypes side by side. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the garden throughout this adventure. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for providing the Black Series lighting and keeping those photons flying through our little jungle. 💡☀️🌿 Thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into the inner and lower areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us keep track of the environment behind the scenes. And thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person who stops by to see how the girls are doing. It genuinely means a lot. And this week... the spotlight belongs to Chem Brûlée Pheno B. She's beautiful. She's demanding. She's hungry. She's capturing every photon she can. She's building some gorgeous flowers. And she's still writing her own story. So let's keep watching. Let's keep learning. Let's keep photographing. Let's keep those photons flying. And most importantly... let's let this beautiful, hungry girl shine. 🍮🌸❄️💡🔥 Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿📸

Plant has now been moved outside due to no space in the tent. She is developing lots of short fat buds with a nice orange tint. Smell is starting to develop. Smells sort of sickly sweet so far. Cant wait to see the end result.

After I changed the lamps to 2 x 200 watts, the plant on the left also started to bloom. I gradually had my equipment delivered and starting to go "Professional". AC Infinity Controller and exhaust fan, from now on I can also check my values ​​from outside

Hi liebe Community and Welcome Back! 💚 Im ersten Tetraploid Grow meinerseits, habe wir aktuell richtig starke Entwicklungen zu verzeichnen. Die Pflanze hat von Beginn an einen guten Start hingelegt und sieht richtig Vital und Munter aus 😉 Nach der fünften Wachstumswoche, geht die Pflanze in einen heftigen Wachstumsboost! Sie hat alle anderen Pflanzen überholt in der Höhe wie auch in der Breite. Ich habe die Seitentriebe etwas zur Seite gebogen, worauf sie sehr gut reagiert haben. Dadurch bekommen sie etwas mehr Licht ab. Ab heute kommt die Pflanze in die Blüte! 💚 Ihr Aroma ist sehr grün und frisch, so ein wenig wenn frisch der Rasen gemäht würde, allerdings mit einer leichten typischen Cannanote. Die Bedingungen im Growschrank sind Top! ————— 🌞 Temp: 21 🌚 Temp: 18°C bis 19°C 💨 RH: 58% VPD: 0,75 kPa 💡ppfd: 330 mpm —————

Give her every 1-2 Days one or the other time 2 Litres of Water. Add little bit Calmag when i mean she need it. The Headbud get much Biomass for this soon Stage of Flower 💚 and when you push it your Fingers smell very sweet 🤤🙃 Next Week i‘ll defoliate her and maybe cut off some lower Stems

Some are swelling , one is smelling very different to the others . I seem to have 6 phenos from small to tall and rounded buds to thin spear shaped buds. I'm not sure which is my favourite yet but one has a very unique smell almost like pineapple and exodus cheese , it could be that one but I also like the bud formation on another,, we will see

Not much to say, everything seems okay!

Flowering day 52 since time change to 12 / 12 h Hey guys :-) All ladies look very healthy and delicious :-) We're slowly getting closer to the end. This week it was poured 3 times with 1.2 l each (sewing materials see table above) At the next watering there is a very light rinse with Clean Fruits so that the last nutrients can be slowly used up. The trichomes are now checked every day. I'm looking for my microscope with an app so I can take pictures of it 👍.

Another Great YEAR ANOTHER WONDERFUL GROW LETS GOOOO HAPPY 420 GANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Penso proprio che questa volta non si riprenderà ma riuscirà ad arrivare alla fine ugualmente! Evidentemente ci sono danni a livello radicale che non sono reversibili e le foglie giovani piegate in quel modo così ad artiglio, sono un segno di una precedente sovra irrigazione che ha causato tutto ciò, mi sembra strano che oltre ad essere così accartocciate siano rimaste comunque scure, senza segni di carenza di azoto o qualsiasi nutriente, ma guardando nelle due settimane indietro, il vaso ci metteva troppo tempo per asciugarsi e questo già faceva presagire un problema di assorbimento per troppa acqua, per fortuna è stata recuperata in tempo ma questo genere di problemi sarebbe sempre meglio evitarlo…mai lasciare in mano le piante alla mamma insomma 😵

Definetly the tallest of my current plants,but that's what u expect from a 100% sativa.Long ass flowering times but well worth the wait.She likes the nutes ,one of my favourite strains of all time
