Now we're growin'! Buds popping out everywhere, only two Viper Cookies still apparently in veg. The Lamb's in the 10 gal is really spreading her wings, I've had to adjust the pots a little to compensate for the overcrowding (a problem which I am happy to have). Chemdog is really budding strong, I like what I'm seeing but I hope they plump up. The smaller plants are making up for their size with an abundance of pretty little future nugs. Even the two Lemon OG's (not listed here, ran outta room for strains) are looking good and they were kinda a last minute addition. Had some bug issues--just minor though. Worse damage than that was done by me and my slightly over-zealous LST. The foliage is lookin good, rich and green. I've had to pull a good deal of yellow leaves lately, but I'm pretty sure they've just been used up and aged out. Lots of humid weather now, of course. No problems yet, though. As a preventative measure I've defoliated a little heavier than before, making sure every part of the plant can breathe. I use the morning dew as a guide-- with my location the wind almost always blows and by about 8 am I can see any patches of growth that might be too thick because they still have a lot of dew. So far this method has worked, and I don't see any major slow downs in growth from the haircuts. Been watching a lot of DGC and thinking Recharge might be useful, but I'm pretty stuck with what I got this year (too damn rooted to do much with the soil any more). Awesome place for info though-- the more I learn the more I want to learn. 8/22 -- Bud worms. Bastards. Heavy neem spraying will hopefully bring it under control. Been watching these girls constantly (lot of time on my hands at the right time of year), and the buggers sure made headway fast. Been finding a few, like one or two, each day. Today I checked and found over a dozen on one plant. I neemed the bulk of the plants, leaving two of the smaller ones un-sprayed. I couldn't spray the very tops of the bigger plants very well because they're topping 7 - 8 feet and too close together to fit the ladder (planning-- live and learn). I moved the smaller unsprayed plants to the side of the garden and I'm hoping that if they're really hell bent on infesting something they'll take the bait and at least leave the bigger girls alone. Meanwhile, remnants of the hurricane are headed this way keeping shit really really moist all around. So far so good for bud rot still, but it's prime time. 8/23-- Hmmm. What could tip a 5 gal bag, saturated, supported with lines, with a 7 1/2 ft flowering female in it, without breaking or even bending the plant? I want to believe it's not a human pest......but thinking my pest tried to grab her and couldn't get it past the lines. I'm all ears if anyone has other ideas (wind- no. deer- no.) So assuming I have an asshole in the neighborhood, it's back to old school. I really liked the idea of not worrying about them so much, I thought poeple might be better these days, but I guess not. Time for stakeouts and hidden cams. 8/25-- Had to spray BT for the damn caterpillars. Not a lot of damage so far, but keeping an eye on it. Fortunately the buds are still tiny so easy to spot damage. I'm really pleased with the number of bud sites in general, especially on the Lamb's Bread. I'll have to climb the ladder and see if I can get some good photos next week. No sign of my human infestation. Been watching close and checking cams and nothing. The flash went off a few times, but I was out in less than a minute and saw nothing, and nothing in the photos it took either. Ganja ghosts???

Shortly after they were switched to flowering (after week 3) the plants continue to stretch and then start to develop their first flowers. Now in week 7 all plants have very nice flower clusters all over the plant and side branches. They have grown to 45 cm (=Shiva Skunk on left side) and 40 cm (Serious Kush on right side of aisle) in height respectively and all plants have a nice dark green color, which shows they are healthy and also that the Advanced Nutrients schedule works like a treat. The Q6W-Gen.2 LED-Lamps are now dimmed to 100% (=three green LEDs on the dimmer) and work on FULL POWER, which ensures full fledged flower production. Both varieties have now started to exude their typical aroma. The Shiva Skunk starts to smell musky and sweet, while the Serious Kush smells 'gassy' and 'fuely' like its OG-Kush heritage. The flower clusters on the Serious Kush appear to grow denser than the clusters on the Shiva Skunk.

Die Pink Rozay von Zamnesia ist zurück und dieses Mal sind wir fest entschlossen, ihr den Regen zu ersparen! 2024 haben wir sie mit etwas zu viel Outdoor-Charme und leider etwas zu viel Regen gequält. Aber neues Jahr, neues Glück und diesmal geht's besser, und wir sind bereit, der Kämpferin die besten Bedingungen zu bieten. Sie hat uns 4 Tage warten lassen, um dann endlich zu keimen und das war, ehrlich gesagt, ein erleichternder Moment. Mit 100% recycelter Erde und ein wenig Green House Pulver und Dünger für den einfachen Einstieg, wollen wir es diesmal richtig machen. Die ersten Hürden hat sie schon gemeistert. Die Pflanze hat zwar noch ein bisschen Schwierigkeiten, sich vom Samen zu befreien, aber wir wissen: Sie ist zäh! Eine echte Überlebenskünstlerin, die mit jedem Tag stärker wird. Wir sind schon richtig gespannt, wie sie sich entwickelt und hoffen auf gutes Wetter und nicht zu viel Regen, ein bisschen Sonne, und dann steht unserem Erfolg nichts mehr im Weg! Die zweite Pflanze für unser Outdoor-Projekt 2026 ist also am Start und wir können es kaum erwarten, zu sehen, was sie drauf hat. Neues Projekt, neues Glück und wir sind mit voller Motivation dabei!😊

💜 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 5 | The Classic Haze Begins to Stretch Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! Every phenotype in this project has been raised under exactly the same conditions, yet every week they continue reminding me just how unique genetics truly are. Today’s spotlight belongs to Purple Haze – Pheno A, one of the tallest and most vigorous ladies in the room. She’s entering her first week of flowering, and while the stretch has only just begun, she’s already showing all the elegance and energy that make Haze genetics so iconic. ⸻ 🌱 The Journey So Far For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed technique. Rather than allowing a traditional vegetative period, every seed was placed directly under a 12-hour light / 12-hour dark schedule from germination. The goal is simple: To let every phenotype express its natural growth habit while comparing different genetics under identical conditions. Every plant shares: • The same environment • The same lighting • The same nutrients • The same climate • The same daily care The only real variable is genetics. Watching each plant respond differently despite receiving the exact same treatment is one of the most fascinating parts of this entire adventure. Purple Haze Pheno A is proving that beautifully. ⸻ 🌿 A Lady That Loves to Reach Standing at approximately 73 cm, she’s already among the tallest plants in the room. From the very beginning she showed a strong desire to grow vertically, but she’s doing so with remarkable balance. Long internodes. Healthy side branching. Excellent apical growth. Instead of producing a dense, squat structure, she’s developing the graceful architecture so often associated with classic Haze genetics. She has presence. She naturally draws your attention the moment you open the tent. ⸻ 🍃 Leaf Tucking Instead of Heavy Defoliation One of the techniques used throughout this week has been leaf tucking. Rather than removing healthy fan leaves, I’ve simply repositioned them beneath developing branches to expose lower growth sites to more light. It’s a gentle approach that allows the plant to keep all of her valuable solar panels while improving airflow and encouraging a more even canopy. Looking at her structure now, it’s already paying off. Multiple flowering sites are receiving direct light, and the entire plant has opened up beautifully without unnecessary stress. Sometimes the simplest techniques are the most effective. ⸻ 🌸 The First Signs of Flower Although we’re only considering this Week 1 of Flower, there’s no doubt she’s making the transition. Fresh pistils are appearing across the canopy. The tops are beginning to stack. New growth has taken on that unmistakable flowering appearance, with each growing tip preparing to become its own future cola. The real stretch is only beginning, and knowing Purple Haze genetics, she’s probably not finished reaching for the lights just yet. ⸻ 💧 Feeding for the Transition As flowering begins, nutrition has shifted to support the plant through this important stage while maintaining healthy, vigorous growth. Current feeding includes: • Terra Grow • Terra Bloom • Power Buds • pH adjustment for optimal nutrient uptake Rather than making sudden changes, the transition into bloom is gradual, allowing the plant to adapt smoothly while continuing to build both roots and flowers. So far, she’s responding exactly as hoped. ⸻ 🌡️ Stable Environment, Strong Growth Like every plant in this project, Purple Haze benefits from carefully maintained environmental conditions. Current grow room conditions include: • Day temperature: 31.1°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 72% • Solution temperature: 21.6°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 639 ppm Maintaining consistent environmental parameters ensures every phenotype is evaluated fairly, allowing the genetics themselves to tell the story. ⸻ 📷 This Week’s Gallery This week’s photographs capture a plant that seems to gain confidence every single day. The studio portraits highlight her graceful structure, while the close-up shots reveal healthy new flowering sites emerging across the canopy. Several images focus on the leaf tucking performed throughout the week, showing how opening the canopy has allowed light to penetrate deeper into the plant. The overhead views reveal excellent symmetry, and the room updates continue documenting the environment these ladies are growing in. It’s always rewarding to compare these images week after week and watch the transformation unfold. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead The coming weeks should be incredibly exciting for this phenotype. I expect the stretch to continue for a little while longer before she begins putting all of her energy into flower production. As the canopy fills in and the bud sites begin stacking, it’ll be fascinating to see whether she develops the long, elegant colas often associated with Purple Haze genetics. She’s already one of the standout plants in the room for her structure alone. Now the flowers get their chance to tell the rest of the story. ⸻ 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Every week these diaries become a little more exciting, and sharing every success, lesson, and surprise with this incredible community makes the experience even more rewarding. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a place where growers from all over the world can learn from one another and celebrate the journey together. Zamnesia for the outstanding genetics that make this phenotype hunt possible. 🌱 Plagron for providing the nutrition supporting these plants from seed to harvest. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light powering this entire grow. 🌿 TrolMaster for maintaining a stable environment and helping every phenotype perform at its very best. And finally, thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, asking questions, and sharing this journey with me. Every phenotype deserves its own spotlight, and Purple Haze Pheno A is already proving she’s more than worthy of hers. Growers Love and the adventure has only just begun. 💜🌿

Leaves are changing, and doing out. Trichomes are starting to get cloudy, as well as the hairs turning orange and curling.

Hey guys . A wonderful week goes by with a super growth :-). After I topped it for the first time last week, it recovered very quickly and showed great growth. I don't think I will use topping again on the lady because I should slowly blossom with a few other women :-) think it will be ready in the next 7-14 days for Flowering 👍. This week it was poured 3 times with 1 l each time (for nutrients, see table above). The tent was cleaned and the health of all women was checked :-). After the photos she was sprayed again with neem oil so that the last little tripse disappeared. Even if you can't see any more trips I will spray it one last time next week to make sure :-). I wish you all a happy new year 2022 ☺️. Stay healthy 🙏🏻 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this strain at : Clearwater Seeds Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

This time it was this girl's turn with a great smell. A very good strain, easy to grow, fast, and without many demands. Besides the controlled environment, it has a sweet citrus scent that makes you want to eat it instead of smoke it, lol. The buds were a good size, very resinous, and sticky. I really liked the result and intend to grow it again ✌️💪🌿🍁

La tenda (4x4) è in fioritura da circa 2 settimane e la SF2000 lavora a pieno regime riuscendo a coprire bene e in maniera efficace praticamente ovunque, ho trasferito la Purple OG Punch di SSSC che è l’unica autofiorente e mi stava crescendo troppo in altezza per stare nell altro box e quindi aggiungerò lei in questo diario!😄💥🎬💚 Tutte le Gorilla 🦍 sia di Zamnesia che di RQS sono state defogliate nelle foglie più gialle e con carenze, le 3 piante di Seeds Mafia invece continuano così cercando di recuperare le altre in altezza…ora le Gorilla 🦍 sono tutte a 1.800 EC mentre le 3 di SM sono a 1.600 EC, la PPOG è a 1500 EC. Ci vediamo presto con altri aggiornamenti e grazie di essere passato! Grazie Spider Farmer ancora per questo LED SF2000, questo nuovo modello fa veramente la differenza e le piante crescono in maniera ottimale!!! 💯🙌🌱

I did some defoliation I plan on putting into flower next week maybe two more weeks still figuring that out I feel like my plants are a bit small definitely could use some nutrients
