# Black Diamond Auto Pheno A by Zamnesia 🌱💎 ## Week 1 | Fast Out of the Gate Hello GrowDiaries family! 👋🌱 Welcome back to another update from the 12/12 From Seed project. This week we're following Black Diamond Auto Pheno A through her first week of life, and she has already started making an impression. Every plant enters the garden with its own pace and personality. Some spend their first days quietly establishing roots before showing much activity above the soil. Others seem eager to get moving from the moment they emerge. So far, Black Diamond Auto Pheno A appears to belong firmly in that second category. --- ## A Strong Start Like the rest of the garden, this seedling was transplanted directly into her final container filled with Plagron Lightmix. The objective remains the same throughout this project: Allow uninterrupted root development from the earliest stages while minimizing transplant stress later in life. As always, the majority of the work during this stage happens beneath the soil surface. While we admire the leaves above ground, the root system is busy establishing the foundation that will support the entire grow. And judging by her progress this week, that foundation appears to be developing very well. --- ## Environment Environmental conditions remained stable throughout the week. Daytime temperatures averaged approximately 27°C. Night temperatures remained around 25°C. Relative humidity stayed close to 55%. The nutrient solution was maintained near pH 5.99 with an EC of approximately 0.46 mS/cm. Root zone and solution temperatures remained around 21°C. Lighting was provided by the Future Of Grow Black Series LED system operating under the 12/12 From Seed methodology used throughout this project. At this stage, consistency remains more important than intensity. The goal is healthy establishment, not aggressive growth. Healthy roots first. Everything else follows. --- ## Early Development The first few days showed some slightly unusual leaf formation, something that is not uncommon during the seedling stage. Young plants occasionally display small quirks while transitioning from cotyledons into their first true leaves. What matters most is how the new growth develops. And in this case, every new set of leaves appeared stronger and more defined than the previous one. As the week progressed, the plant began displaying excellent vigor and increasingly healthy structure. The unusual early growth quickly became less noticeable as new leaves emerged. --- ## Building Momentum What stood out most throughout the week was the pace of development. Each new photograph showed visible progress. Leaf size increased steadily. New growth accelerated. Structure remained compact while continuing to expand outward. By the end of the week, Black Diamond Auto Pheno A was already displaying noticeably larger leaves than many of her sisters at the same stage. The bird's-eye photographs reveal a plant that is actively building canopy area and preparing for the next phase of growth. Everything appears healthy, balanced, and energetic. --- ## The Auto Advantage One interesting observation during this first week is the difference between the autoflowering and photoperiod plants sharing the room. While all plants are developing well, the autoflower genetics are already beginning to show the rapid early growth that many growers associate with vigorous autos. Black Diamond Auto Pheno A is a good example of this. The growth rate appears slightly ahead of several of the photoperiod plants documented so far. This is still very early, of course, but it will be fascinating to watch how these differences develop throughout the coming weeks. One of the most rewarding aspects of running multiple cultivars together is observing how each genetic approaches growth in its own unique way. --- ## Three Fingers and Beyond By the end of the week, well-developed three-finger leaves had already become established. What caught my attention was their size. The leaf development appears particularly vigorous for this stage, and some of the newest growth even hints at the next stage of leaf complexity beginning to form. Whether those emerging leaves develop into larger finger counts remains to be seen, but the plant is clearly moving forward with confidence. For a Week 1 seedling, the progress has been impressive. --- ## First Week Impressions So far, Black Diamond Auto Pheno A has delivered an excellent start. Strong vigor. Healthy color. Rapid leaf development. Compact structure. And a growth rate that already places her among the faster-moving plants in the room. The early leaf quirks appear to be fading into the background as healthy new growth takes over. Everything suggests a seedling that is settling comfortably into her environment and preparing for the weeks ahead. --- ## Looking Ahead The first week is complete and the foundation is now in place. Roots continue expanding. New growth is accelerating. The canopy is beginning to form. And this little Black Diamond Auto already seems eager to show what she can do. The coming weeks will reveal much more about her structure, vigor, and overall character. For now, she's doing exactly what every grower hopes to see: Healthy growth. Steady progress. And plenty of potential.

07/16/2024 Week 8 Update!!!! Yoo gang update lessgooo!!!!!! Sooo what's brackin gang, so we starting into week 8, officially I think it's week 6 of actual veg but that's here nor there, the girls are really coming into their own really great leaf structuring and coloration other then will keep y'all updated as the week goes on thanks for stopping by and LFG!!!!

Obama runtz x gas tax sad to say both seedlings are super crappy so far. If it was not for the gas tax parent being the best flower ever then I wld just toss these but sometimes the crappy slow growing plants end up being super dank It's looking like a good start to a week the plants are strong they are getting to the point I can let the dried dry out completely. I'm thinking by the end of this week the plants will be starting to be sold. Last week I put all the plants into my bigger 2x4 tent with my medicgrow mini sun 2 the 500w version. Only a few of the plants were ready for that light. Seems like the only plants that really have good resistance and have a strong start are the weedseedsexpress.com seeds. Shout out to weedseedsexpress.com for the strong plants. I ended up putting all the plants back into my 2x2 tent with the 55w amazon light it has alot more blue light in its spectrum. It's kinda weird b4 I switched the plants to the 2x4 tent they were getting 220umol under my amazon 55w led then when I put them under the 500w light 25% strength about 50in from plants and they were getting only about 195umol in that tent but it was stressing most the plants. I assume a larger light has more side lighting hitting the plants. I think when useing larger lights it's good to measure umols from the top but also coming from the sides. I think durring seedling stage they only need about 50% the umols coming from the side the plants as the top is receiving. When I put the plants back in the small tent about the same umols as they were getting b4 the switch and they were still a little stressed. So for a few days I put the small light at the top the tent giving them 100umols for a few hrs then 130umols the rest the day.

Ultima settimana di flushing.anche lei la vedo bella e sicuramente buona ..questa banana 🍌 strawberry 🍓...sempre complimenti a fast buds ..bravi bravi...... Altri 2/3, giorni e taglio anche lei

Preflower only. Tropical Storm Hillary incoming. It is tied up to the scaffolding and will remain outdoors throughout the storm.

This is my second Big Bud grow but my first outdoor grow. The buds aren't as dense and the indoor with my CO2 bag. The bud is still very potent though.

really easy to grow mines came out smelling like pine Barrens mixed with lemon balm , while my wives smelled like complete skittles chem gas like. Similar to mephisto white chem tbh. Yeild awesome some nice beautiful nuggets. If you notice on mines was super leafy so I ended up using the trimbag. I used it for not even 15 seconds and results show. Stuff like this investing into products like the trimbag and my herbsnow dryer has been saving my ass and time for many grows now. End product shows everytime. Will have and updated smoke report in matter of weeks. Can easily see me growing this one again but in a bigger pot ^_^. But for 1.5s gals ill take it really happy.

This amnesia pro has peformed amazing, both phenos #1 and #2 have produced beautiful hard dense colas, full of citric lemony terps, ideal to use for daytime, very nice cerebral buzz. Hope you guys have enjoyed my work! Peace 💚💛❤️👨‍🌾

This week was hot went up to 30 celsius degrees in the room. Now it is okay cooling down I have got good USB driven ventilation system goes 16 hours non stop with one charge CBD Blue Shark is developing well looking very well. Lovely.... Fertilization has started ; So Vitalink bat gunao 10ml per liter and biogrow 1ml/l that's all for now. Day 13, 15th of August 2020: Epsom salt just arrived and applied.

14 días desde su germinación.

Did first nutrient feeding w fox farms nutes. Very little. Things were going perfect then I woke up this am to slight curling again. I changed light distance and put in my other light as well so I’m now in need of ac unit or another fan bc it’s getting hotter, 85. Or I figure I could run my exhaust fan 24/7 and take it off my humidity switch but then I got to possibly get another humidifier bc the exhaust fan takes the humidity out of the room. Idk but the girls all in all are looking good to me. started lst on 6/30 using grow big and big bloom now

Lot of growth this week. Pie piss is stretchy but I like her look. Velvet cream is the butter leaf looking one. I don’t understand this yet. Is it going to be ok? It has grown fine but it’s has always not really looked like cannabis. Feedback would be wonderful! Orange Creampop was given back to me by my friend. So I have chopped her down 1/3 and topped her. She was meant for outdoors but I’m going to flower her now. Hope she survives the trauma. Small orange Creampop is old and weird. But it’s an experiment now with her. Thanks for viewing!

These girls are looking great. I lowered the lights down right on them. Don't forget that the bottom half of there soil is 80% coco coir and 20% perlite... I am pretty much treating them like a coco grow at this point so they are getting nutrients every day. Buds are going to swell quick, bet they will double in size in the next week. I have a few rust spots on the leafs but that's normal for Incredible Bulk Autos in flower. I have added some Sensi Cal-Mag Extra to help and raised the ppm to 420-450. I had to bend the tall Sativa girl over because she grew too tall. She recovered without issues.

day 7 first time and first time using set up so had a few problems getting environment right,seems to be okay now they are coming on,eager to see how the take in the next few weeks gonna start terra vega by end of next week possibly.terrapro+ soil

Not a whole lot happening this week. Just waiting for the plants to mature and go from there. The mites are prioritizing the weaker plants and I am ok with that. I have introduced some predator bugs that should eat them. They are the ones that tend to eat thrips and white flys however the guys at the grow shop said if they only have mites they will eat them instead. They won't however go onto the webs if they start forming any. I have not seen any webs but who knows, might be some hidden. little fuckers are good at going undetected for a while. Just giving them water now till its all done and over with. Will not be drying this crop as that's when the mites will go crazy. Fresh harvest and frozen asap. The one CBG plant seems to be thriving in all the chaos looks nice and healthy and good frost on it. Some of the other plants are loosing some upper main leaves. Could be fade. Could be issue in the roots. Don't really care, so close to being done. Added one photo of honeymints from an old grow for a contest.

The leaves on my plants are starting to fold up like a taco, some yellowing.. Not too sure what is going on. My friend suggested that it was a calcium or magnesium deficiency and it matches the description online but I usually give 3 or 4 ml per gallon damn near every time i water, is that enough or too much even? They are 5 weeks from seed today and all 3 are flowing very different and at a different pace..
