Cooled off some 17c days, a bit of rain, lots of wind, haven't put the trelis net up but she's strong enough for another few weeks. Some light defoliating, now that stretch is underway easier to see inside the cannopy and cut out anything that isn't keeping up. She looks incredibly healthy, clearly getting everything she needs from the Hugel. Heavy top dress last week she'll tear through it in no time. Flowering underway, heavy stretch, nodes bulking up and spitting out hairs, hoping for last week of Sept finish! Nothing much this week, lots of drip irrigation, monster maxx and silica weekly, and a weekly spray of LCPT, will add BT to LCPT maybe mid to end of August to combat the caterpillars. I'm hoping that this crazy distributed cannopy will help with bud rot and air flow as the buds should stay on the smaller side. The initial trelis net really helped to guide and evenly space the core nodes.

Today 7/30/19, day 57 and the start of week 9. I'm still continuing to alternate between days with my pesticide treatment (especially after finding that bug living on one of hulkberries fan leaf) and thrive alive green daily foliage spray as a prophylactic solution against any possible pests or mold going into these last few dog days of veg. I will flush them with distilled ph'd water for two days this weekend in preparation for flower. Then I'll start them on some "flower fuel" bloom booster on top of my secret for success flower recipe at 1/4 of the recommended strength. Outside of that still no adverse issue to report for the end of the 8th week. After my last trim, they both have responded very nicely, I was kind of worried about fat banana stalled growth. But one thing I noticed when I topped her at the 6th node, yes the main stem stopped growing but it developed many bud sites up and down every stem. Whereas hulkberry was topped at the 8th node, she has mainly focused on developing long stems and only 2 or 3 bud sites along her stems. Even though hulkberry in structure, is much bigger than fat banana and has a way bigger root system. Fat banana is bushier and has developed way more bud sites than hulkberry. I can't tell which strain will yield the most at this point only time will tell! Also, a big shout out to "J"@RQS, thank you for the excellent customer service. Another reason why Royal Queen Seeds is top 3 in breeding!!

The plant is definitely a large plant with a lot of potential to make big long buds it has some of type leaves. I hope the bud fatten up a little though the plant has a strong gas and nutty cream smell it’s really nice it over powers all the other plants on the smell factor

Week 8 of flower... swelling up great... smelling beautifully... trichomes are getting cloudier. Will check again next Monday and see if she needs to go another week.

10/17/2022 start of week 3. Plants still look healthy. Been LST the Strawberry Gushers and Newberry for a few days and some of the lower branches are catching up. Trying to keep the canopy as uniform as possible. The Strawberry Gushers appears to be in preflower already, which is a bit concerning. Was hoping to get at least another week out of her. Orange Bubblegum is still the smallest of the three, but she continues to grow at a steady pace. I think someone pulled a fast one on me with my cover crop. I have what looks like blades of grass growing, with only a few small clovers showing up so far. Guess that is what I get for shopping on Amazon. Also, increased my DLI to 500. Not much more to report at this time. On 10/19/2022 I watered 1 liter per pot with the Rootwise and ThermX again. This amount every 2 to 3 days seems to be sufficient for their current size. The pots are wet on the bottom, but no run off. Also, removed just a few of the lowest leaves and fan leaves blocking the lower branches. The LST is allowing the lower branches to catch up. 10/21/2022 watered both the Strawberry Gushers and Newberry with about 1.5 liters each. They are both really growing fast now. The Orange Bubblegum is beginning to speed up, it's just seems like a shorter plant with shorter node spacing. I just misted the surface of the Newberry since the pot was heavier than the other two. Still doing some minor LST on the main trunk and some selective deformation and leaf tucking of leaves blocking bud sites. 10/23/2022 was a big day for the Strawberry Gushers. Top dressed with Gnarly Barley, BuildASoil Craft Blend, and BuildASoil BuildFlower, then watered 2 liters. Plant is starting to stretch so I wanted to make sure she has access to the nutrients she needs. The Newberry and Orange Bubblegum just got 1 liter like usual. Plan to top dress them as well once they get a little bigger. Avg. VPD: .8 PPFD: 500 DLI: 32

This was a pretty stable week. I finally moved my flowers to the new growing area I’ve created. It’s powered by Gavita Pro fixtures and Phillips mastergrow bulbs. They have been in here for about 3 days at this point. From now on my future diaries will showcase more plants, larger scale, but still with artisan minded craft. Excited for what the future will bring, almost as excited as I am to cut down these plants when they take on their fall colors over the next 3 weeks! I’m Expecting a harvest of 1-1/2 oz per plant, but may get more or less. Time will tell.

Trichomes are turning amber slowly. Had some pH issues which the leaves did not enjoy. Also cut back on the EC - down to 1.3 now. Harvest next week!

Chugging along. Have had some moisture issues in the tent- pooling water on the floor. Added another fan to keep things moving plus reduced the temp at which the exhaust fan blows one degree. That seemed to help. I’m a little worried that the buds seem so small this late in the game. I’ll officially ask a question about this later, but I have been having a lot of condensation inside my tent. That’s because it is in a cold part of my house. And though I do have two fans running and the temp is set low, the condensation is running down my walls and under my floor tray. Not a huge issue except I tried wiping down the walls today and bent a pretty good bud stalk. Not sure if it will keep growing or if it will be an early sacrifice. But, bummer all the same. Also, I figured out that I was a week off. So, just starting week 8.

This week has been alot better with managing the temps so that's was a good start, I have definitely seen some size on the buds since last week 😁 so I stripped alot of the fan leaves off now since the girls are in flush so should see even more size fro now until harvest, Happy Times Happy Growing 😁 🌿 STAY SAFE 😁

💜 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 7 | A Lush Beauty Finding Her Rhythm Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! Week after week, this room continues proving why phenotype hunting is one of the most fascinating parts of growing from seed. Every plant shares the exact same environment. The same lighting. The same nutrients. The same irrigation. The same care. Yet every diary tells a completely different story. Purple Haze Pheno A continues writing hers with elegance. She isn't the tallest plant in the room. She isn't the smallest either. Instead, she's quietly becoming one of the healthiest and most balanced ladies in the tent, and every time I unzip the door she's one of the first plants my eyes are drawn toward. 🌱 One Room. One Method. Twelve Different Personalities If this is your first visit to the diary, welcome! This entire project is built around the 12/12 From Seed growing technique. Rather than giving plants a long vegetative period before flowering, every seed was placed directly under a 12/12 light schedule from the very beginning. It's a technique that naturally keeps plants more compact while allowing them to reveal their genetic personality surprisingly early. Every phenotype in this room receives exactly the same opportunity. • The same Plagron nutrition • The same lighting from the Future of Grow Black Series LED • The same environmental control through TrolMaster • The same AutoPot irrigation • The same soil • The same temperatures • The same humidity There are no favourites. No special treatment. No individual feeding. The only thing that changes... ...is genetics. Purple Haze Pheno A is beginning to show exactly what hers have in store. 🌿 A Plant You Can't Help But Admire Some plants impress you with explosive growth. Others with incredible colours. Purple Haze Pheno A immediately catches my attention for another reason. She's simply beautiful. Her foliage is exactly what every grower hopes to see. Large fan leaves. Deep, healthy green. Excellent turgor. Strong petioles. Every leaf looks like it's working exactly as nature intended. Healthy leaves are far more than decoration. They're the plant's solar panels, capturing light energy and converting it into the carbohydrates that fuel root growth, flower development and eventually resin production. When foliage looks this healthy, it's usually a reflection of everything happening beneath the surface. Healthy roots. Balanced nutrition. Stable environmental conditions. She truly looks comfortable in her home. 🌸 Flowers Are Beginning to Tell the Story Week 7 is where flowering really starts becoming exciting. Every branch now carries clusters of bright white pistils emerging from small groups of swollen calyxes. Those little white hairs are the pistils—the female reproductive organs of the flower. In nature, their purpose is to catch airborne pollen. Inside a grow tent they simply become one of the best visual indicators that flowering is progressing exactly as it should. The calyxes surrounding those pistils are equally important. Each one is the tiny building block that eventually forms the finished buds we harvest. Right now they're still small. But over the coming weeks they'll begin stacking together, swelling and filling with resin until individual flowers merge into the long, beautiful colas Purple Haze genetics are famous for producing. Judging by how evenly the flowering sites are developing, she's laying an excellent foundation for the weeks ahead. 🍃 Letting the Plant Do the Work One thing I've continued to avoid is unnecessary defoliation. Throughout the early flowering period I've relied mostly on careful leaf tucking, allowing light to reach developing bud sites without removing perfectly healthy fan leaves. Every healthy leaf is producing energy. Removing them simply because they're large isn't always the best solution. Sometimes the best training is simply understanding when not to intervene. Purple Haze has responded beautifully to that approach. Her canopy remains open. Airflow is excellent. The branches have plenty of space. Nature has done most of the hard work for me. 💡 Lumiflora Under-Canopy Lighting One exciting addition to this grow is the use of Lumiflora under-canopy lighting. Traditional grow lights do an incredible job illuminating the tops of the plants, but lower flowering sites naturally receive much less usable light as the canopy becomes denser. Under-canopy lighting helps change that. By gently illuminating the lower sections of the plant, these fixtures help those secondary flowers receive additional energy without forcing aggressive defoliation. They're not a magic solution. They won't suddenly transform small buds into giant colas overnight. What they do offer is another opportunity for lower flowering sites to remain productive while helping create a more evenly developed plant from top to bottom. I'm genuinely excited to watch how they influence the remainder of this project. 💧 Feeding This Week As flowering progresses, nutrition continues supporting the increasing demand for flower production. This week's feeding schedule includes: • Terra Bloom – 2 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Careful pH adjustment using pH Plus and Lemon Kick Everything remains balanced and consistent across the entire room, allowing each phenotype to express itself naturally. 🌡️ A Stable Environment Builds Strong Plants Consistency continues to be one of the biggest successes of this project. Current environmental conditions remain remarkably stable: • Flower Week 7 • Height: 120 cm • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • pH: 5.8 • EC: 1.95 mS/cm • Solution temperature: 22°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂: 639 ppm When plants don't need to constantly adapt to environmental swings, they can dedicate their energy to what matters most—building flowers. 📷 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs showcase exactly why I'm enjoying this phenotype so much. The close-up shots reveal healthy clusters of fresh white pistils emerging from every flowering site, while the wider images highlight her beautifully balanced architecture and outstanding foliage. One of my favourite details is the colour. The rich green leaves frame the developing flowers perfectly, giving the entire plant an incredibly healthy appearance. She isn't trying to steal the spotlight. She's simply growing with confidence. And sometimes that's even more impressive. 🔮 Looking Ahead Over the next week I expect the stretch to begin slowing noticeably. More energy should shift toward flower production as the calyxes continue stacking and the buds gradually start gaining volume. I'm also very curious to observe the ongoing influence of the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting as the canopy becomes denser. What I don't expect is explosive overnight change. Purple Haze doesn't feel like that kind of plant. She seems determined to improve steadily, week after week, building quality before quantity. If she continues along this path, I have a feeling she'll become one of the most rewarding plants to harvest—not because she grows the fastest, but because she grows with remarkable consistency. 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Every week reinforces why documenting each individual phenotype has become one of the most rewarding parts of this journey. Watching twelve unique plants express themselves under identical conditions continues to teach me something new every single week. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can learn, share knowledge, and inspire one another. 🌱 Zamnesia for providing the outstanding Purple Haze genetics that make this phenotype hunt possible. 💜 Plagron for supplying the nutrition supporting every stage of this grow. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light driving this entire project. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable environment where every phenotype can perform at its best. ✨ Lumiflora for bringing an exciting new dimension to this grow with their under-canopy lighting, and giving these lower flowering sites every opportunity to shine. And finally... Thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, asking questions, and sharing this journey with me. Every week Purple Haze Pheno A becomes a little more impressive. Not because she's trying to stand out... But because she's quietly showing what healthy, well-balanced genetics are capable of. Growers Love! 💜🌿

Week3 sunce germination and I'mloving how they are evolving they are all back on the run and happy as hell🤭😁😅 week 3 day 17 veg and the roots on this cuties are fantastic, they all look kind of the same, super happy with them so far. week 3 day 17 veg And TP1 got her second pair of leaves and she is willing to catch up with the rest , the rest they are way ahed and all on the write track 😅❤️ week 3 day 18 veg and it looks like CS3 wants to pass CS1 but still same same and CS1 still the most beautiful one 😅 week 3 day 18 veg TP1 going for her secont pair 🤩 week 3 day 18veg Transplant day since they all have ok roots 😅 i moved TP1 with the others so the she doesn’t fell left behind 😅✌️ Now they will stay in this pots until fabric one to flower, but baby steeps for now i’m going to give them some food 😅 week 3 day 20 veg. And they are loving the new pot and feedings, TP1 continues to run after they’re sisters with are all going for tiny brunches (all of them) the queen still CS1 but the rest is caching up 😜😅🤩 week 3 day 21 veg. And a lot happened lol during the day yesterday i lost one of my improved leds so today i had to teke one of m zeus from flower tent( its almost done its ok 😜) and improvise a corner half under a table with only one bar connected to the driver , and I’m running it st 25% this will have to work out for a week mb a little longer lets see 😜😅 week 3 day 21 veg. Girls evolving great, CS1 still the queen, faster growing, amazing leaves great roots , it looks like a keeper, CS3 and CS2 they have some mutant leaves , so I’m yet to see how they evolve, but they are not keepers since i’m phenohunting so i will keep only the most perfect ones to clone. week 3 day 21 veg. TP1 is evolving amazingly fast now, it looks like she recovered from the light i dropon her wen she was only 2 days old, lets see but by the looks of it she’s on her way to b a keeper 😅 CS2 looking amazing and for sure a keeper so far Litle battle between Topicanna Poisen from @sweetseeds vs Chocolate Skunk from @00Seeds (just for fun) TP = Tropicana Poison CS = Chocolate Skunk All i grow is medecine for myself, nothing to sell, dont even ask !!!! Stay safe and do it with love for the love ❤️ 🙏

Flipped tent to flower Strawberry truffle is so sticky, just defoliating veg growth and your hands are extremely tacky, Healthy plants, All leaves are fat and genetics proving themselves to be strong+vigorous

420Fastbuds FBT2311/Week 3 What up grow fam. Weekly update for these stunning girls. Up to this point they've been growing picture perfect . Not really doing anything special besides still feeding nutes every other watering 500ml. I'll double the feed this week taking it to 1000ml/1 liter per every other day. Not seeing any burn signs from introducing nutes so will keep that the same strength. All in all Happy Growing

A really good plant. Gave a okay yield. 60g dry all covered in resin! Smells really funky little citrus but also very 🧀
