Light hits with around 850 - 900 PPFD. Terpwise its developing from that fruity smell to a real ripe Gelato Mint with fruits smell. I like it very much so far. Watering every 2 days.

Today marks the second week of flowering, and I’m really excited about how well my cannabis plant is doing! Over the past few days, it’s really stretched out and has grown quite a bit taller. The leaves are looking lush and vibrant, with a deep green color that shows how healthy the plant is. I was a bit worried last week because the leaves were slightly droopy, but after adjusting the water and getting the levels just right, it’s looking much better now. It feels like the plant has responded really well to the care I’ve been giving it. I’m looking forward to seeing how it continues to develop in the next weeks. The buds are starting to form, and I can’t wait to see them fill out. This is such an exciting process, and I’m really hopeful that everything will keep going smoothly from here on. Fingers crossed for a successful grow!💚🌱

I did a top dressing, everything seems to be going pretty well they are looking Frosty. Im debating on increasing the PhotonTek 600w pro to 75% what do yall think its in a 4x4 tent. I don't have a PPFD METER nor can I find PPFD charts for this light in a 4x4 space so I'm just winging it atm.

So 3 weeks in, 4 were males, unfortunately all 4 were descendants of mephisto’s gen’s. Bit disappointed about that but what can ya do. After growing 10 of the bitches at once I am NEVER doing that again. People always talk about how many they want to grow before they do… to those that haven’t started in this pursuit yet, heed my warning lol. They just hit their pre flower growth spurt, I did have 30 days marked on their lives on a reminder on my phone to defoliate because last grow I had so much larf. The fog dog grows nice and stout, the glue sniffers tall and lanky. Both phenos differ very little. I cut off like 3/4 of the bottom nodes off each. Fingers crossed they take it well.

My Permanent Marker plants are looking good. The short and stocky one has turned a crazy shade of purple. It's really wild looking. The other plant is still putting on new growth, so it'll probably be ready in about two weeks. I can't wait to see how the purple one smokes – should be interesting. The past week has been awesome for drying my plants. The weather's been perfect – nice and dry, with just enough breeze to keep things moving. I finally got around to chopping down those two big plants I've been meaning to trim. They're almost ready, just need a little more time to dry out completely. I can't wait to see how they turned out.

First sets of pistils were spotted on Sunday and so I decided to make today the official first day of flower for this plant, woot! Gave her a 2/3 str. nute feeding and will be monitoring her closely. This week I added in 5mL of the tiger bloom when I mixed my 1gal of nutes. Thursday update: Got an Exhale CO2 bag hung up, super excited to see how much they help my plant! On other update news, i decided to do some super-cropping on account of her rigourous growth. One of the branches snapped just a little, but enough for me to get the tape. Other than that, all is well! She's drinking plenty of water every day and I haven't fed her nutes since Monday. Monday update: Ordered some Exhale CO2 bags for the grow tent that will be arriving thursday!

Overall I am satisfied with this grow and harvest . The plant was extremely resilient. She was a beast and in a better environment she would have been even more amazing. She smells great . I refuse to smoke her before she’s fully cured . So I’ll be back in a little over a month with the update

Big tops! She's got a lot of rocket colas thanks to the training techniques that were applied, she smells exactly like her sisters, very sweet and floral, I'm starting to feel the cherry 🍒 notes on the smell of the buds, very good strain to grow, only 2 of the 5 phenos are 100% percent purple but tje other ones show purple on the leafs like this one because of the cold temperatures

Hello Growmies, We have reached week 16 with our Epic Buzz plants, marking a significant moment in their growth journey. This week, Epic Buzz Pheno #3 showcased its beautiful floral maturity before it was harvested. The vibrant, frost-laden buds filled the tent with a sweet and pungent aroma, highlighting the strain's complex terpene profile. This pheno was particularly lush, sporting richly colored foliage and trichome-packed buds that are a testament to the careful nurturing it received throughout its lifecycle. Pheno #3 was harvested just after these last photos were taken, with a final wet weight of approximately 500 grams. The intricacies in the colors and textures of the buds were remarkable, showing hints of purple amidst the green, under a thick coat of crystalline trichomes. As for Pheno #1 and #2, they remain in the flowering stage, developing their profiles and will soon follow in #3’s footsteps to complete their cycle. We look forward to updating the final harvest weight once these remaining phenos have been processed. This stage is crucial as we observe the subtle differences between each pheno, helping in our ongoing efforts to optimize growth conditions and pheno selection for future cycles. Stay tuned for more updates as we close this chapter on Epic Buzz and begin the next cycle of our cultivation journey. Stay lifted, Salokin

This week I've been pulling the top fan leaves to stop the plant growing taller and to allow the side branches to catch up. I also started feeding them. I will probably repot and switch to flower next week now they've all outgrown their mutations.

💜 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 11 | This Girl Really Is on Fire 🔥💜👑 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 Okay... I'm going to say it again. This girl is moving. 🔥💜 And not just moving... she's MOVING. 😂 Every time I look at Purple Haze Pheno A, I get the feeling that she's quietly decided: "Alright, enough waiting. Let's get this show on the road." 😂🔥👑 Now, before anybody gets too excited... let's make something very clear. She is still FAR, FAR from the end. We're not calling her finished. We're not calling her close to harvest. We're not making any predictions about where this ends. But... when I compare her with where she was just one week ago? The difference is there. The flower development is progressing. The stacking is becoming more obvious. The buds are gaining presence. The resin is becoming increasingly visible. And the whole plant is simply moving at her own very impressive rhythm. Fast. Very fast. So this week... let's turn the spotlight up. Because Purple Haze Pheno A has absolutely earned it. 💜🔥👑 ──────────────────────── 🔥 THIS GIRL IS REALLY ON FIRE ──────────────────────── Last week I said: "This girl is on fire." I'm not taking it back. 😂🔥 If anything... I need to turn the volume up. Because this week she has continued exactly where she left off. And that's what makes the progression so interesting. We're not looking at a plant that suddenly changed overnight. We're looking at a plant that is consistently moving forward... and doing it quickly. Week after week. Flower after flower. Layer after layer. She's building. She's stacking. She's developing. And when you look at her now, you can really see that momentum. There's a difference between a plant simply being in flower... and a plant that looks like it's actively building its flowering structure. Purple Haze Pheno A is definitely giving me the second feeling. She's working. 😂🌸🔥 ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FLOWERS ARE MOVING ──────────────────────── This is the part that's catching my attention the most. The flowers are becoming increasingly defined. They're developing more structure. They're beginning to look fuller. And those flowering sites are no longer simply little points scattered through the plant. They're becoming increasingly obvious parts of the overall architecture. And when I compare her with the previous update... I can see the progression. That's what I love about keeping these weekly diaries. Sometimes you think: "Nothing dramatic happened this week." Then you put last week's photograph beside this week's... and suddenly: "Oh..." 😂 Actually... quite a lot happened. The plant simply did it gradually. And Purple Haze Pheno A is becoming one of those girls where the week-to-week comparison is particularly satisfying. ──────────────────────── 💎 THE FROST IS KEEPING UP ──────────────────────── And then we have the trichomes. 💎💎💎 The frost continues to become more noticeable as the flowers develop. This is another part of her evolution that makes me want to grab the camera. Because once the flowers start developing that little sparkle... you know you're entering one of the most visually rewarding parts of the journey. You look at her from across the room and see flowers. You move closer and see frost. You move even closer... and suddenly you're looking at an entire microscopic landscape. 😂🔬💎 That's what makes macro photography so addictive. And this girl? She's giving us plenty to photograph. The resin isn't the whole story. But it's certainly becoming a very beautiful part of it. ──────────────────────── 💜 THE COLOUR STILL SPEAKS FOR ITSELF ──────────────────────── And of course... I can't talk about Purple Haze without mentioning her colour. That deep green remains one of the strongest visual characteristics of this phenotype. The foliage continues to give her that rich appearance, while the developing flowers create beautiful contrast throughout the plant. She's got a very distinctive look. You can see her structure. You can see the flower development. You can see the resin. And you can see that beautiful green. Everything is starting to come together. And I think that's why she's becoming so easy to recognize. She's developing her own signature. 💜🌿 ──────────────────────── 🚀 HER RHYTHM IS FAST ──────────────────────── This is really the theme of this week's report. Her rhythm. Because I don't want to say that she's "ahead" of every other plant. That's not what this is about. Plants don't have to race each other. And we're still very far from the finish line. But compared with her own previous development? She's moving quickly. That's the important part. We're watching HER progression. And her progression is fast. She's not sitting there waiting. She's not slowly wondering whether she wants to flower. She's clearly in the process of building. And she appears to be doing it with a lot of momentum. 😂🔥 It's almost like somebody pressed the fast-forward button. But I'm pretty sure nobody did. She's simply being Purple Haze Pheno A. ──────────────────────── 💡 SAME PHOTONS – DIFFERENT RESPONSE ──────────────────────── And this is where the 8×8 Adventure becomes really interesting. Because nothing special was created for this girl. She's still in the same room. Same environment. Same general irrigation strategy. Same nutrition foundation. Same lighting system. Same 12/12 schedule. Same overall conditions. And yet... she's expressing herself differently. That's genetics. The room provides the environment. The plant interprets it. And Purple Haze Pheno A seems to be saying: "Thank you very much. I'll take all those photons and get to work." 😂💡💜 And that's exactly what we're watching. The same light enters the room. Different plants respond differently. Some build differently. Some stretch differently. Some flower differently. Some take longer. Some move faster. And this girl? She's definitely one of the faster-moving personalities in this room. ──────────────────────── ☀️ MORE PHOTONS – MORE CAPABILITY ──────────────────────── The lighting setup remains the upgraded system we've been using throughout the room. The two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures are now part of the lighting environment. We initially had more available intensity than we wanted to run, so we reduced the output. We're now around: 💡 ~59% power from the plug with approximately: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy and naturally decreasing intensity depending on plant height and position. And I really like this approach. We're not trying to run the fixtures flat out. We're creating lighting capacity. Then we're controlling it. That gives us flexibility without unnecessarily pushing the equipment or using more electricity simply because we can. And Purple Haze? She's certainly making use of what she's receiving. 💡🌿💜 ──────────────────────── 🌿 A THREE-DIMENSIONAL PHOTON CATCHER ──────────────────────── When you look closely at her structure, you can really appreciate how three-dimensional the canopy is. Leaves occupy different heights. Branches move through different spaces. Flowers develop at different angles. And photons interact with all of it. Some are intercepted immediately. Some travel deeper. Some reach lower areas. Some pass through gaps. And the additional Lumiflora lighting helps bring useful illumination into those deeper and lower areas. It's not simply: "Put more light on the top." It's about understanding that a plant is not a flat surface. It's a living, three-dimensional structure. And Purple Haze Pheno A has created a beautiful structure for those photons to interact with. ☀️🌿🌸 ──────────────────────── 🌸 STACKING – AND THEN MORE STACKING ──────────────────────── I think this deserves its own section. Because... wow. 😂🌸🔥 The stacking continues to become more obvious. The flowers are building on one another. The structures are becoming more substantial. And the overall appearance is becoming increasingly dense. This is the kind of progression where you can look at the plant and almost see the architecture changing in front of you. One flower develops. Then another. Then the surrounding structures become more pronounced. And suddenly the whole branch starts looking different. That's what we're watching now. Not the final product. Not the finish line. Just the plant building. Layer by layer. Week by week. And she's doing it beautifully. ──────────────────────── 📏 STILL COMPACT – STILL MAKING HER SPACE COUNT ──────────────────────── At around 120 cm, she's not one of the tallest girls in the room. And honestly? She doesn't need to be. She's making excellent use of the space she has. She's not trying to win the height competition. She's building within her own architecture. That's something I really appreciate about her. She's compact enough to maintain that substantial flowering structure while still having plenty of space for the flowers to develop. She doesn't need another 30 centimetres of height to make an impression. She already has one. 😂💜👑 ──────────────────────── ⚗️ FEEDING – SAME ROOM, SAME FOUNDATION ──────────────────────── The nutritional update is the same as the rest of the room 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 are approximately: ⚗️ pH – 6.02 ⚡ EC – ~2.14 mS/cm Again, we're not creating a special feeding programme just because she's moving quickly. We're watching the plant. We're watching her development. We're keeping the room consistent. And she's responding beautifully. The important thing is that we're not confusing "fast development" with "rush everything." 😂 She's moving at her own pace. We're simply supporting the environment around her. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ WEEK 11 ROOM CONDITIONS ──────────────────────── The room remains stable 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 conditions. Same general strategy. Different expression. And that last part is really the entire point. ──────────────────────── 🌿 WE'RE STILL NOT RUSHING HER ──────────────────────── Now... because I keep saying she's moving fast, I want to make one thing very clear. Fast compared with her own previous progression... doesn't mean we're suddenly at the end. We're not. Not even close. 😂 There is still plenty of flowering development ahead. The flowers can continue building. The resin can continue developing. The structure can continue changing. And the plant can continue maturing. So I'm not looking at her thinking: "She's almost finished." I'm looking at her thinking: "Wow... look how quickly she's progressing." There's a big difference. And that's the exciting part. ──────────────────────── 📸 THE CAMERA HAS A LOT TO WATCH ──────────────────────── This is exactly the stage where I want to keep photographing her. Because when a plant is moving quickly, the weekly photographs become even more valuable. They create a visual timeline. Week 9. Week 10. Week 11. And suddenly you can see the story. The flowers become larger. The structures become denser. The frost becomes more obvious. The plant starts looking more mature. And you can actually watch the transformation. That's what these diaries are about. Not just showing you a beautiful plant... but showing you how she became that plant. And Purple Haze Pheno A is giving us a beautiful story to document. ──────────────────────── 👑 THE CROWN IS GETTING HOT ──────────────────────── I'm starting to feel like we need a larger crown budget in this room. 😂👑 Every week another girl walks into the spotlight. And now Purple Haze is basically standing there with flames coming out of her flowers. 🔥💜😂 But again... I'm not declaring any winners. Every phenotype has something special. That's the whole point. One plant might have incredible structure. Another might have incredible colour. Another might have unusual flower formation. Another might have an amazing aroma. Another might be incredibly compact. And Purple Haze Pheno A? She's giving us: 💜 Beautiful colour 🌸 Strong flower development 🔥 Fast progression 💎 Increasing resin 🌿 Compact structure 👑 Serious personality That's a pretty strong combination. ──────────────────────── 🔍 WHAT I'M WATCHING NOW ──────────────────────── My questions for her have changed again. I'm no longer asking: "Is she going to flower?" She's answered that. I'm not asking: "Is she developing?" She's answered that too. Now I'm watching: 🌸 How much more will these flowers build? 💎 How much more resin will she develop? 🌿 How much denser will the structure become? 💜 How will her colour evolve? 🔥 And how long can she keep this pace? That's the fun part. We don't know. And I'm perfectly happy with that. Because the plant gets to answer those questions for us. ──────────────────────── 💭 FINAL THOUGHTS – KEEP THE FIRE BURNING ──────────────────────── Week 11. And Purple Haze Pheno A? Still on fire. 🔥💜👑 If anything... even more so. Compared with the previous update, this girl is clearly moving at her own rhythm. And that rhythm is fast. The flowers are becoming more substantial. The stacking is becoming more obvious. The resin is becoming increasingly visible. The colour remains beautiful. The plant is maintaining that compact, balanced structure. And everything is starting to come together. But we're still far from the end. That's important. This isn't a finish-line report. It's a progress report. And what a progress report it is. 😂🔥 Same room. Same environment. Same photons. Same lighting strategy. Same nutrition. Same 12/12. Different genetic response. That's the magic. The room gives her the tools. Purple Haze Pheno A decides what to build with them. And right now... she's building something beautiful. 💜🌿🌸💎🔥 So let's give her the shout she deserves. Let's turn up the spotlight. Let's keep those photons flying. Let's keep the camera ready. And let's watch this girl continue to do what she clearly wants to do. Move. Build. Stack. Frost. Grow. And shine. 🔥💜👑 She's still got a long road ahead. But if this is the pace she's choosing... I'm very excited to watch the rest of the journey unfold. ──────────────────────── 🙏 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 the experience with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Purple Haze genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover what this beautiful phenotype can become. 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 watch the girls develop. It genuinely means a lot. 💚 This 8×8 Adventure keeps showing us the same thing over and over again: Give different genetics a shared environment... and they will tell you very different stories. And Purple Haze Pheno A? Her story right now is moving fast. 🔥💜 She's not finished. She's not even close. But she's building. She's stacking. She's frosting. She's developing. And she's doing it at her own very impressive rhythm. So... let the girl shine. 👑💜🔥 Let's see how much more she can build. Let's see how the flowers continue to evolve. And let's keep watching this beautiful girl burn her way through another week of the 8×8 Adventure. Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 And remember... don't blink. Purple Haze Pheno A is moving. 😂🔥💜👑

So apart from the really low yields.... Which I expected from 80% Indica dominant strains just not that low considering how dense the Budz were. But I can say my growing skills have been consistently improving and it is showing with each grow. With these ladies I should have definitely put them in a 12Litre pot or smaller and still would have gotten the same results if not better. So I lesson learnt for future grows..... To take into consideration the size pots I'm using on the strains I'm running! 👍🏾 But in all very great smoke, even more excited for the next rows that I have coming with the improvements I will be making. 👍🏾🌱💚 Another thing I will say is that I will be putting more effort into how I document my harvest for you guys.... More pictures, better videos showing off the Budz.... Not many pictures because I done smoked it all 😅😅🔥🔥🔥 but still I want to do better for you guys, I want to give people the best view/review of the strains that I run... The information will help someone that decides they might want to run this strain in the future! Any questions guys just ask away 👊🏾😎
