The room smells like sweet citrus. This grow was pretty easy but I was expecting a higher yield. Overall she was a good plant! Now time to fire up the curing chamber.

The girls have filled my space very nicely! i'm heavy handed on the defol trying to optimize bud sites & trying my best to keep everything even as i know these girls will stretch hard! Girls have been enjoying plain water and foliar sprays including EM1

It has continued to be Too Hot here in the UK, so in an effort to mitigate further foxtailing (and after a nine-day flush) I think we’re ready to harvest!

8/10 Hurried morning. Today was water day and the hose fucked up. Dad got it working while I filled half the jugs needed with water and the requisite amount of plant doctor. I gave the preventative dose (which is 1/2 tsp per gallon but I upped it closer to 1 tsp per gallon) on the plants that have received the three full treatments, the 10th planet in the middle and the chemdog. The rest received their last full dose. I had watered the NATURAL mk ultra and other tenth planet yesterday so I'm waiting until tomorrow when the need water to give them their treatment. Other than the 10th planet I'm worried things are going pretty good. Tjat's probably tine too. I certainly wouldnt have even noticed it a few years ago. I only bought like half the amount of soil as last year and really tried keeping costs down. These aren't the biggest plants I've grown but I'm grateful for what I have. I'm working hard to get the most out of them I can. I'm planning to give it a few days and then feed later in the week. EDIT: I THINK I got my grow question deleted. Finally. It's strange that I didn't get ONE outdoor growers response. Doesn't matter. I figured out the best course of action. I'm lucky. Or maybe I just work hard. I defoliate twice a day. I have some pruning to do on the interior of a COUPLE plants. I've cleaned them up pretty good this year. No signs of ANY wpm which is great but suprisinging considering the rh and the rolling fog most mornings. 8/11 I gave the tenth planet in the back and the mk ultra I didn't get yesterday. The mk ultra got the preventative dose (upped from 1/2tsp to 1tsp) and the 10th planet tge full dose. I'll have to check but I think this is the last cure dose for everyone. Found a pillar INSIDE a bud on the special kush that's far ahead. Then you can see on the video a HUGE cut worm or something on the branch I pull down. Luckily I saw it. Wasn't there when I got back but it took a few bites. Looked on the camera and saw a bird swoop in and grab him. Thank the lord! It's going to be 100° today and tomorrow with heat advisory in effect. I'm going to have to treat these plants for pests/pillars some how. I might just use BT and my super alkaline water. The septoria is under control and I'm just afraid spraying anything would make things worse. I'm certainly jot going to let them eat my early flowering plant. I can't apply ANYTHING in this heat. I'll research and maybe if it gets low enough tonight I might be able to do something. I'm going to go back over and check that plant going branch by branch. That one 10th planet tgat WAS the biggest plant is severely stunted amd has some "strange" looking leaves. I wasthinking about getting it off property or just chopping and burning but I figure it's been in there long enough that the others could be infected. I think it spreads through pests if that's the case then it might be better to get rid of it. I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet. I'm going to stop and try to get some mulch today. EDIT: I found a place I can get a bale of straw and I think I'll use that to mulch. It's almost a 100°. After killing the pillar this morning and missing that cutworm I came back over to REALLY look at the special kush in later flower. I looked through every branch and every bud. I found four pillars on that plant. No REAL damage yet and extremely small. I had to pull buds apart to find them. It's like they were hiding from the heat. That was miserable hand picking them in 100° degree weather. Luckily the bird feeders are close but the bigger birds chase the smaller ones. The smaller birds have found a new food source and perch on my cage waiting. I'm leaning towards treating the flowering plant with BT-k. Seeing that tge citric acid WON'T kill fungus I'll just use OUR super alkaline water and hope for the best. Nothing will get treated during this weather. 8/12 IT reached 105° yesterday and I had a family medical emergency. Came over this morning to several plants drooped right over despite me checking MD day and them being fine. Phone dodnt charge so I couldn't get pictures. Watered everything but the ones that got it yesterday cause they looked good and still had weight. I had to leave before the ones that were down could pick back up. The kush plants seem to tolerate this heat much better. Beside the ones in the 10s tge others are taking this hear fine. I'll update when I get back. EDIT: Went back over around 10. Another hot day. Suppised to be HOTTER than yesterday. I don't know how that's possible. both our thermometers went to 104 lately. Oh and I dont think that's beet curly top virus I think it's just great stress! I've grown this strain before and it's not the most resilient but it's other qualities make up for that. That's a loud off. I checked most buds on the plant in late flower and found a grass hopper IN the cola! No damage that I could see and I flicked him in the head which killed it. I came back to the chemdog that I didn't water drooping. I watered that and the 10th planet I didn't get this morning. The only one that hasn't got water today was the natural mk ultra and when I was there it was still heavy and looked really good so I left it. I'll have to come back around four and check things out. I'll be watering that tonight for sure. It will be hot tomorrow too then it will be better weather. I need to feed but I'm uncertain whether I should in this heat. All the kush strains I'm running are have Hindu kush as a parent and seem to be able to take the heat no problem. We don't get heat like this usually. It's different when it's 100° and 99% rh than dry heat. Edit #2 WENT BACK OVER AROUND 3:30PM EXPECTING TO WATERING THE ONE PLANT I HADNT. THE MK ULTRA THAT I LEFT NATURAL. IT LOOKED GREAT WHEN I GOT THERE AND WAS STILL HEAVY. IT LOOKED BETTER THAN NORMAL. ONE SIDE HAD A FEW LEAVES THAT WERE STARTING TO DROOP BUT ITS RIGHT WHERE THE SUN IS HITTING IT ON TH BOTTOM. ITS JUST A LITTLE HEAT STRESS. THE 10TH PLANET ARE MORE PRONE TO HEAT STRESS. I NEED TO FEED. I DEFOLIATED QUITE A FEW LEAVES TODAY. IM RUNNING OUT OF LARGE FAN LEAVES ON MY PLANT IN MID FLOWER. EVERYTHING SEEMED TO START MAKING LITTLE ROCK HARD BUDS ALMOST OVERNIGHT AND THEY ARE STARTING TO SWELL. PLANTS NEED NITROGEN I THINK. I USED LESS SOIL AND WATERED MORE. I JUST DONT WANT TO FEED DURING THIS HOT WEATHER. TOMORROWS THE LAST OF THIS HEAT WAVE AND THEN ILL BE ABLE TO GIVE THE GIRLS A GOOD FEEDING. THE SILVER LINING TO THE PATHOGEN THING IS THAT IVE BEEN MUCH MORE COGNIZANT OF LEAFING THE PLANTS AND REMOVING DEAD AND DAMAGED LEAVES. I'VE DONE A MUCH BETTER JOB WITH THAT THIS YEAR. AFTER THE HOT SPELL ILL GET IN WITH SHEARS AND PRUNE OFF LARF. IVE GOT SOME BUT I HAVE MORE I NEED TO GET. 8/13 IT was supposed to be HOTTER yesterday than the day before bit it was the same 104°. Today is supposably the end of this ridiculous heatwave. I watered everything that needed it despite having watered deeply yesterday. I put 8 1/2 gallons into the garden where it needed it most. Chemdog and the big 10th planet I got yesterday. Soil is still wet and the bags are heavy. I can't believe how well these kush plants hold up to the heat. Hopefully better Temps tomorrow so I can feed. In other news I haven't been seeing septoria leaves. Less and less everytime I go over! Keeping my fingers 🤞. 8/14 Last of the hot days. Watered the chem dog and the big 10th planet. It's supposed to rain today. The rest of the plants are heavy amd doing good. I'll update when I can write more.

As you can see, our macro lens arrived, we were able to take several photos and see the trichomes, we had never seen them so close before. We also noticed that many pistils have turned brown in the last days of this week but the trichomes are clear yet. The smell is getting stronger, reminds us of fresh fruits, mango and a little citrus. We are excited, she is healthy and smells good, but a little concerned with the development of buds and if they are within the standards for this week. Despite having many trichomes and the pistils turning brown, we are not noticing a significant fattening of the flowers (correct us if we are wrong). hahaha, noob stuff =)

01.07. White Runtz Day 63# Condition much better. On the plant, after the last update, the crap started to spread, 2 or 3 days after the last update I removed a lot of destroyed leaves, from then until today it is no longer spreading, this morning I noticed (probably not earlier) on 2 leaves it is barely visible and a little while ago when I went around the plants I noticed that it had not spread at all, so I can freely say that the plant has recovered, and it was the second in the row in the most critical condition. I removed those two leaves and I'm still monitoring the situation, but the plant is already growing nicely and has put on a lot of leaf mass, so almost as much as it lost, it's healthy, don't complain, I think it's recovered. The last two waterings she received only clean water, the next watering is food, stimulators, vitamins, amino acids… Today is the end of the ninth week for the plant. Stay High and Keep Growing!!!

Hallo meine Lieben und Willkommen zu meinem wöchentlichen Update. Es ist viel passiert! Nachdem ich letzte Woche die Bilder und Videos für das Diary aufgenommen hatte, habe ich bei den Pflanzen,wie üblich, eine genaue Inspektion durchgeführt. Mein Herz sank mir in die Hose als ich bei der Gary Sherbet (ausschließlich!) am Stamm Schimmel vorfand. Es ist also ein Stämmchen weniger an meinen diesjährigen Liebling vorzufinden. Auch habe ich mich aus Zuneigung zu der Pflanze dazu entschieden, ihr bei mir in der Werkstatt Unterschlupf zu gewähren. Ich will diesen Strain bis zum Ende durchziehen und habe sie deswegen bis zur Ernte unter einer 600 Watt 250€ China LED platziert um sie nicht vorzeitig ernten zu müssen. Ihre Aromen sind umwerfend und ich will mir gar nicht vorstellen müssen was meine Nachbarn von mir denken 🤣🤣 Ein wilder und dennoch äußerst definierter Mix aus unterschiedlichen Düften. Ganz schwer in eine Richtung zu bestimmen weil so komplex. Sehr raffiniert und Trichombedeckt. An der Pflanze gefällt mir einfach alles. Wuchs, Blütenausprägung, Resistenz und Farbenpracht. Einfach ein großartiges Zuchtergebnis von FastBuds ❤️ Ich bin furchtbar gespannt auf das Endergebnis. Auch bei der Orange Sherbet ging es Heiß her. Nach tagelangen Regenperioden und einem Sturm fand ich die Arme zu Boden geworfen eines morgens vor. Mit der Hilfe meiner Frau habe ich sie jedoch fluchs am Zaun festgebunden und sie hat keinerlei Nachhaltigen Schäden erhalten. Ihre Blüten schwellen beständig an und riechen Tag für Tag mehr nach Orange mit dem gewissen Kick. Also nicht die billige Variante die reduziert im Supermarkt den Weg in den Einkaufswagen fand, sondern wie die Orange die dir der spanische Jüngling lächelnd hinhält, nachdem du ihn gefragt hast ob die Orangen am Baum halten was sie versprechen. Ein richtig vollmundiges Aroma das schwer in der Luft hängt und süßlich verführt. Ich wünsche euch für eure Projekte weiterhin viel Erfolg und wir hören/lesen/sehen uns nächste Woche wieder! 🌿🌱🏼‍♂️

Probably a great week to scrog, but I am going to let her just bloom. Added some kelp meal and microbials to the al-magged and ph'd water. If you are wondering that is an old school fly trap which has been a sticky end for the fruit flies.

El domingo 28 de febrero puse la semilla directo en tierra (estuvo 24 horas hidratándose en agua destilada) con micorrisas. Al día 3 brotó y de ahí no ha parado de crecer. Ambas son Lebron Haze XXL Auto (BSF), solo que una ha crecido más, la otra va más como arbusto.

Auto looks done. Pakistan Valleys look almost done. Candy may need another couple weeks. What do u think i should do guys? Should i wait and harvest all together? Or harvest the auto now, then the kush and lastly the Candy? What's the best way. Also i had been planning to dry them all in my tent. If I do a staggered harvest, i have to build a box or empty out a closet to try and dry them in 😫

🌸 Pink Rosay Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B | Week 8 (Flower Week 5) 🌱 The Tiny One That Refused To Give Up If I were growing only two or three plants, I'm going to be completely honest... I probably wouldn't have kept her. Pink Rosay Pheno B is tiny. Not small. Not compact. Tiny. She's easily among the smallest plants I've ever grown. And that's exactly what makes her so interesting. Because this is the whole point of the 8×8 Adventure. I'm growing twelve different genetics side by side, and instead of selecting only the plants that immediately impress me, I'm giving every phenotype the opportunity to tell me who she is. And this little lady? She's definitely telling us. She isn't going to produce the biggest harvest in the tent. She probably won't even come close. But she's healthy. She's flowering. She's developing beautifully. And she's still here. Sometimes that's enough reason to keep watching. 🌸 Week 5 Flower – Tiny, But Still Building The stretch is essentially behind her now, and her personality couldn't be clearer. Pink Rosay Pheno B has remained incredibly compact throughout the entire grow. Her nodes are tightly packed. Her branches remain short. Her entire structure feels almost miniature compared with the plants surrounding her. But when you look closely... There are flowers everywhere. Those tiny branches are carrying developing buds, and the white pistils continue appearing across the flowering sites. She's slowly turning this miniature framework into a miniature flowering plant. And there's something strangely beautiful about that. She isn't trying to become something she's not. She's simply doing what her genetics told her to do. ✂️ Defoliation – Opening The Little Lady Up Just like her sister, Pink Rosay Pheno B also received a selective defoliation this week. Again, this wasn't because she was unhealthy. Quite the opposite. She's looking beautiful. The reason was simply that her extremely compact architecture creates a very dense little package of foliage and flowers. With so much plant compressed into such a small vertical space, selectively removing some unnecessary leaves helps open the structure. The goal isn't to strip the plant. It's not about removing healthy leaves just because we can. And it's certainly not about making the plant look pretty for a photograph. The idea is to create a little more space between foliage, flowers, light and moving air. I removed leaves that were contributing to congestion and cleaned up portions of the lower and interior structure where development was unlikely to justify keeping excessive foliage. But I didn't remove everything. There are still flowers down there. And I'm leaving some of them. Because this is an experiment. I want to see what this tiny phenotype can actually do. 💡 Let The Photons Move With a plant this compact, light management becomes particularly interesting. The Future of Grow Black Series provides the primary light from above, while the Lumiflora under-canopy system adds another source of illumination deeper in the room. But there's an important distinction here. Adding light doesn't automatically mean every flower needs to be exposed directly to it. The plant still has its own architecture. Leaves overlap. Flowers sit underneath other leaves. Some areas naturally receive less light. By selectively opening the canopy, we're simply allowing more of the available photons to travel through the structure rather than being intercepted immediately by layers of foliage. It's not about making the plant brighter. It's about making the light distribution more useful. And with a plant this tiny and dense, every little opening makes a difference to the way light and air move through her. 🌱 The Smallest Plant With A Big Lesson This is probably the part of her story I appreciate most. If you only looked at her height, you could easily conclude that something went wrong. But nothing went wrong. She simply expressed herself differently. That's one of the reasons growing multiple phenotypes is so valuable. Put two sisters next to each other and suddenly the differences become impossible to ignore. One can stretch. One can stay short. One can develop large branches. Another can produce a miniature architecture. Same genetic family. Completely different personalities. And instead of asking: "Why isn't she like her sister?" I prefer asking: "What can she show me if I let her finish?" That's the experiment. And that's why she's still here. 🌼 Flowers, Pistils & Personality Despite her size, the flowering development is genuinely beautiful. The flowers are becoming more defined, with fresh white pistils continuing to emerge from the developing calyxes. The deep green foliage provides an incredible contrast against those bright white hairs. And the more I look at her, the more I realise that her size is actually part of her charm. She's almost like a miniature version of a full-sized flowering plant. Everything is there. Just compressed. Tiny branches. Tiny leaves. Tiny flowers. Tiny structure. But the same biological process is happening. She's still capturing light. She's still producing energy. She's still moving water and nutrients. She's still building flowers. And she's still telling us what her genetics are capable of. ❄️ She's Still Getting Frostier Another thing that keeps this little plant interesting is the resin development. She's beginning to show that frosted appearance across the flowers and surrounding sugar leaves, adding another layer to what is already an incredibly attractive little plant. I don't expect her to suddenly turn into a giant producer. But I do think she could produce something interesting in terms of flower quality. And if the final amount ends up being very small? That's okay too. I've already been thinking that her eventual harvest may make more sense as a small personal extraction project rather than trying to treat her like a traditional high-yield plant. Something like an ice-water wash could give those flowers another purpose. But that's a decision for much later. For now... She's growing. And that's what matters. 💧 Consistency Is Still The Strategy The beauty of this phenotype is that she hasn't needed special treatment. She's been receiving the same general cultivation philosophy as the rest of the room while being observed individually. Hand watering gives me the opportunity to assess her every day and make sure her needs are being met without forcing her into a feeding strategy designed around a larger plant. The important thing isn't trying to make her bigger at this point. That chapter is over. Now the objective is simply to allow her to finish as strongly and naturally as possible. She's healthy. She's flowering. She's producing resin. So we keep the environment stable and let her do the rest. 🌡️ Environment The room continues providing a remarkably stable environment for all these different phenotypes. Current conditions remain around: Day temperature: 29°C Night temperature: 25°C Relative humidity: 60% Solution temperature: 21°C Root-zone temperature: 21°C CO₂: approximately 639 ppm This is one of the things I love most about this project. Twelve different plants. Twelve different personalities. One environment. And every phenotype gets to show us how she responds to the same cultivation philosophy. 👀 Looking Ahead – Let's See What She's Got At this point, I'm not expecting miracles from Pink Rosay Pheno B. And I don't mean that negatively. I mean that realistically. She's tiny. Her total flower mass will naturally be limited by the amount of plant she's carrying. But that's okay. The goal now isn't to turn her into something she's not. It's to see how beautifully she can finish as herself. The flowers should continue swelling. The pistils will eventually begin their transition toward maturity. Resin production should continue increasing. And that little compact canopy should slowly transform from a collection of tiny flowers into a finished miniature harvest. Maybe she'll surprise me. Maybe she won't. Either way... She's already taught me something. ❤️ Final Thoughts – The Little Lady That Stayed Pink Rosay Pheno B is probably never going to win a competition for plant height. She isn't going to dominate the canopy. She isn't going to produce a mountain of flowers. And honestly? That's okay. Because this project was never only about growing the biggest plant. It's about observing genetics. It's about giving different phenotypes the room to express themselves. It's about learning that sometimes the plant you would have removed from the garden is the one that ends up teaching you something you wouldn't have learned otherwise. If I had only been growing a couple of plants, I might have looked at this tiny Pink Rosay early in the grow and decided that her journey wasn't worth the space. But I didn't. I gave her a chance. And now she's standing there, covered in flowers, getting frostier every week and quietly proving that she still has a story to tell. She may be the smallest plant in the room. She may produce the smallest harvest. She may eventually become a tiny jar of flowers... Or perhaps an even tinier ice-water experiment. But before any of that happens, she deserves exactly what every other phenotype in this project receives: Time. Time to grow. Time to flower. Time to express herself. And time to show us what she can do. A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for these wonderful genetics, Plagron for supporting the nutrition throughout this journey, Future of Grow for the incredible Black Series lighting, Lumiflora for bringing additional light beneath the canopy, TrolMaster for maintaining environmental control and everyone following this crazy 8×8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries. Every plant doesn't need to be the biggest. Every phenotype doesn't need to be a winner. Sometimes... the smallest ones simply need someone willing to let them finish their story. And this little lady isn't finished yet. 🌸 Until next week... Tiny plant. Big personality. Still here. Still shining. 🌱✨ Growers Love and happy growing! 💚
