Day 57 from seed the plant has been recovering very well from supercrop I supercrop two more branches because they were running into the light getting burn not only the leaves but the buds as well therefore no choice more HST but the plant is reacting well to the high training I also put some painters tape around the branches that I supercrop in order to allow them some support and allow some nutrients to continue to flow through the branch this situation is probably my fault because I choose 7 gallons pots I have never used such a big pot and the plans are definitely having lots of stretch room to grow looking forward to see this girl finishing and hoping she will be a monster. I know that most of the growers in this platform and elsewhere do defoliate and trim down all the lower branches of the plant so that the plant can concentrate all its energy into the higher bigger and better buds .and I do not do this because I drive the plants very hard with nutrients and those lower branches with small buds always give me the first sign of anything going wrong with her and that's why I leave them as a buffer zone to protect the bigger buds and that way I can push her as hard as I want. Thank you for reading I will continue to update have a happy grow.

End of week 5 for Orange Sherbet FF. This week was better than the last week. She Starting to bounce back from her issues she is taking her time in developing and stretching slowly. No signs of pre-bloom yet. I just fed her Goldleaf feterlizer and did some defoliation to the bad leaves. Hopefully week 6 is better.

06/02/2020 Gonna feed them today 1tbls of blood meal. I snapped a branch on #2 (see video) her stems, I don't like break to easy so I will give some micro nutrients to help stems from breaking. Unless she is the HOLY GRAIL. I will cull her clone. All others handed super cropping well. ๐Ÿ™ #4 in hydro is in it's own diary called Small Batch Seed making some F1 #1 showed her sex today, clones well took cut on 05/20/2020 is rooting well outside in coco coir, in humidity dome just cut and scrape the stem,once rooted I cut off yellowing leaves i hope her smoke is as good as she looks. 5 days into week 10 and #2, and #4 are male so indoors they go for pollen collection. Will dust one bud of each female with each male and hunt for what I want. Also see what each passes on in the cross.

Blue Berry by Spliff Seeds (Nano Grow)
Beginning of week... Out of the blue.. For no reason at all.. I went ahead and topped her. The branches are already beginning to form.. so I just wanted to speed them up a little ๐Ÿคท lol.. I also removed the bottom node (leaves and branches).. They usually just don't grow like the 2nd, 3rd, etc... and the branches were not symmetrical whatsoever lol.. That really grinds my gears (it really bothers the shit outta me lol).. She is left with 3 nodes at the moment.. I will decide which nodes I want to use and go from there.. So I will be going up a tad on the Armor Si.. Up on the CALiMAGic, adding in some FloraGro, amd going up just a tiny bit on the Floralicous Plus to bring it up to the normal dose.. Still using the Hydroguard and the MYCO Plus (powder) at the normal doses.. Other than that, just been watering/feeding when the top of the medium is dry, and when you can clearly feel the weight of the pot (bucket of butter lol) is pretty much weightless.. Basically, I feed on a Monday.. Then just plain pH'd water on Thursday or Friday.. Then back to feeding again on Monday.. This will obviously change once the roots fill the pot (bucket o' margarine) within the next couple weeks or so.. Btw.. Not sure if I mentioned this already.. Dont feel like going back and checking lol.. But I put about 2 - 3 inches of just perlite at the bottom.. Not sure if this helps or does anything lol.. But I've seen other people do it.. Had some extra on hand.. Sure! Why not? I never let this sit in runoff.. Infact, when I water/feed, I place the pot on top of a cup so that she won't be sitting in runoff and so I can collect the runoff as it drips out the bottom.. So far, the runoff pH comes out a little low still.. Going in at 6.2 and the runoff will be like 5.8 or 5.7.. But, I do believe that it has been slowly making its way up.. I should really start buffering and finding a way to remove roots when I harves, so I can keep reusing and avoid issues.. Anyways.. She is happy and healthy.. Topped her and remove the bottom node.. That's all there is to report on so far.. Will be updating mid week and end of week as I usually do.. So excited!!! ๐Ÿ˜ Mid week.. So it looks like the bottom 2 branches are triploids! I could be wrong.. But that's what it looks like to me! Can't be mad about that! Lol.. I can tell she is going to be a short thing.. Perfect for this grow box! Not sure what these weird markings are.. But this literally popped up overnight.. Will be keeping an eye on it!.. Hopefully nothing.. But we shall seeee!... End of week... She's doing good.. I removed the very top node that I left.. Lol.. Yeah I can be very indecisive when it comes to that stuff.. Can always just remove one later if I need too.. But yeah.. I've kinda just been tucking the top 2 branches under the bottom 2 branches so that the bottom 2 can get some good lighting too.. So I try to switch once a day or sometimes twice a day.. Once the tops grow a bit more they should all be able to get their own light without the tucking and whatnot.. But still just been feeding toward the beginning of the week and just plain pH'd water toward mid/end of the week.. The runoff pH is a little acidic.. But it doesn't seem to be hurting anything so far.. The roots have made it to the bottom of the pot.. They did a long time ago, but have really filled the pot alot already.. But I've pushed plants alot longer in much smaller (veg for 6 weeks in a 9oz solo cup).. Her branches are so thick and sturdy! She is gonna be so strong!.. I really need to make sure I don't LST too late cuz it's gonna be hard to bend these tree trunk branches.. But I'm playing with her at least twice a day, so I doubt I will miss the opportunity lol.. But I can't wait to taste some Blue Berry!!! On to the next week!...

Day88 Day 93 giorno del raccolto 130g di cui 25 vanno in freezer e 104 a seccare, ci ha messo un po' piรน tempo a maturare, ma per aver diviso il vaso con la Afghan Bullet ha fatto un ottimo lavoro con cime dense e grandi (per essere cresciuta sulla finestra)
Maine Outdoor 2023
8/8 Rained all night. Still raining today and the forecast says it will continue throughout the day until midnight. It's come down heavy at times but for the most part it's a rain that plants like. Defoliated a couple leaves but nothing really needed it. Without a trellis or my tarps up the grow bags seem to dry out incredibly fast so I need to watch that. It's also "toughened" up the plant wants. I've seen them blowing straight sideways and they were fine. I do need to find that four lined plant bug and spray BT after the rain. Plants lovedcthe nutes. I might feed a little later today or tomorrow. I've got a few things to do but I'll keep this updated. Went over and defoliated ANYTHING that needed it and combed through every plant during a pause in the storm. Then I shook them all off and did a video. This is by far the healthiest crop I've grown! I think they can handle more nutes too so I'm going to up it next feed. Still seeing stptadoc chunks missing and random pillar damage. BT will handle it. It's just so minor I'm not even sure if it should be addressed that way. I've had pretty good luck just looking for them and picking them off. 8/9 Cannabis can grow an inch or two in a day and it definitely has been! The rain has finally stopped. I went and shook all my plants off. I'm going to check and see the last time I fed and try to get a feeding schedule created that won't cause lockout. That's been a problem in the past. I've defoliated a lot of leaves lately but EVERYTHING is looking amazing. Extremely healthy. I DO need to spray BT for the pillars and I need to move that one plant back. I keep forgetting to grab the little wheels I need to make a platform. There are other ways I could do it I guess. I'll keep this updated. No damage from the storm and I went through and defoliated before and after. Forgot to upload shit and now I'm back home with this shitty internet connection. I'm trying to upload this video but we'll see. It's at like 32%. I did a full workout and came back to find this at 77% lol. I need to remember to upload things when I'm not in the middle of the woods. UPDATE: Checked on things and did a video. Need to feed, apply bt and secure individual branches before flowering increases 8/10 LOOKS to be a beautiful day. Growbags are heavy as hell and wet on the bottom. I ALMOST fed today and I still might. The pp in the 10 seems to have leeched a lot of nutes. That and a giant blueberry cheese are the only places I'm seeing a deficiency and I want to keep it simply. I also need to put a trellis up apply BT. also if I'm going to move things around I've got to do it before I put up flowering supports. It's harder to move stuff when it's wet. I'll keep this updated. The girls look fantastic. UPDATE: Went and trellised two of my plants. I was going to feed today but decided to wait until the next time I water. I'm only seeing deficiencies on the phrple punch in the ten and the GIANT blueberry cheese that I watered the most. Bags were heavy as hell this morning but I bet I'll need to water tomorrow. We'll see. Hahaha wow. I'm trying to upload a video but even my tough as fuck plants might have some difficulty in torrential rains like this. Wow. That's all I can say. I'll either go check and shake them off tonight or if it keeps it up I'll wait until morning I guess. What a shit show 8/11 WOW. That's probably the hardest I've ever seen it rain. Got to the grow this morning and found NO damage. It's super sunny amd windy so the bags will probably dry out. I think it's suppised to rain again Sunday. I definitely haven't had to water that's for sure. Nothing was even bent over this morning. The blue cheese I didn't fim or top (I wanted to see gow it grew naturally) pop ka was bent down a little bit but not much considering the pounding it got. You can see on the videos. Since bags were saturated I didn't need to water before I fed. I fed 1.25 pints to every plant. I gave the fifty 2.5 pints and the purple punch in the 10 got closer to a pint. I want to start out slow with nutes as I'm nor seeing many deficiencies. I may fuck around today and put some more trellises up seeing this wind bur when flower comes I can just put my tarp up. I'll update as I go. UPDATE: WENT BACK OVER BECAUSE THE WIND WAS WHIPPING LIKE CRAZY AND TREES WERE DOWN. I SANITIZED ALL MY TRELLISING AND HORIZONTALLY TRELLISED TWO 10TH PLANETS IN FRONT AND VERYICAL TRELLISED THE THIRD. HORIZONTAL TRELLISED THE PURPL WE PUNCH IN THE 10 AND VERTICAL TRELLISED THE BLUE CHEESE IN THE 50 AND THE 10TH PLANET IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CAGE. GLAD I GOT THIS DONE. NOW I JUST NEED TO SPRAY BT AND I'LL FEEL CAUGHT UP. 8/12 Got my supports up and ready now I've just got to find the time to give the girls an application of BT. I've done a pretty good job with manual removal thus far. Bags are over watered. It's Rained so hard and so often that the bags have stayed drenched. Luckily this ridiculous wind has been drying my grow bags out relatively fast. I'm hoping that will be the case today. They're starting to dry out but it's supposed to rain tonight and I think tomorrow. Bright and sunny right now. These are some resilient plants. They seemed to like the liquid kool bloom. I noticed (barely noticeable but I was looking for it) a SLIGHT color change at the very TIPS of a few leaves on a plant but not enough to consider it burn. I will monitor but I think ive got a pretty good feeding regimen. I plan to use as little as I can get away with. I'll keep this updated. UPDATE: WENT TO CHECK ON PLANTS AS I GOT "THAT FEELING". EVERYTHING WAS LOOKING GREAT BUT THEN I WENT AND LIFTED MY DRY 22GALS OF SOIL AND COMPATED IT TO MY 20S AND LIKE I THOUGHT THE WIND HAD DRIED THEM OUT. I CANT BELIEVE HOW QUICK THEY DRY OUT. I GAVE EVERYTHING 1.5 GALLONS AT LEAST EXCEPT FOR THE 10 WHICH I GAVE A LITTLE LESS THAN A GALLON. I GAVE THE 50 A LITTLE OVER 2 GALLONS AND I DISNT NOTICE RUNOFF. I HAD MORE WATER MIXED UP IM THINKING I SHOULDVE GIVEN IT ANOTHER GALLON. OH WELL ITS SUPPISED TO RAIN A LITTLE TONIGHT AND THEN TOMORROW. I HAVEN'T WAYERED IN LIKE A WEEK SO I PROBABLY SHOULD'VE GIVEN THE WHOLE 2 GALLONS. THEY GOT DAMN CLOSE THOUGH. 8/13 Rained like hell last night. Oh course it did. Doesn't really matter though. I had to water. I thibk the last time "I" watered was lime a week ago. My bags were dry. Plants weren't drooping and they might've been ok but I've under-watered twice already to the point they drooped right over dead looking and I wasn't going to do that again. Plants seem to love the nutes I gave. Keeping the tarps off and allowing the wind through and having my bags on pallets has really saved me this year. Everyone else is bitching about the rain and lack of sun but things are going great for me knock on wood. I'm not 'in the ground' though so that probably has something to do with it. I just need to check my plants multiple times a day. These plants are getting massive. The cage is at least 8ft tall and the biggest one is about to the top now. Almost as wide too. 8/14 I forgot to write the entry but I uploaded some pics from this morning. They were wet from the storm but I went back over and took video that's like two and a half minutes plus I took some pictures. I pulled the cage out but I need to undue one of the lathes and pull it forward. I also need to apply BT. Plants seem to be aggressively flowering (some more than others) so it's a real exciting time. I went over this afternoon and everything looked fantastic. I'll try to upload a few pictures but the video will have to wait. Didn't rain today and my bags sry out quick so I'm sure they'll be fine even if it rains. I did notice that the two plants I watered most including the smallest container seem lighter in color. IT might hust be the transition to flower but u think I need to increase feed. On the 10th planet's they are green as can be and have that SLIGHT little almost unnoticeable part you really have to look for on the tips that means it's getting its nutes but it's not burnt. I believe I'm going to have to make feeding schedules for each strain
Purple Bliss
Welcome to week 4 a flower it's day 86 and she is still growing beautifully with tons of trichome development no deficiencies and getting bigger all the time I still got at least four weeks left I'm hoping she gets nice and fat and I'm really hoping that it turns purple in the late stages. I haven't really changed much other than I increase the amount of flush material as I started to notice a little bit of Browning tips on some of the leaves I raised it from 2L to 4L of straight water I also increase the amount of nutrients from 3 to 4 litres starting tomorrow I'll be reducing the amount of flushing water down to three but keeping the nutrients the same. Hope the information was useful happy growing and keep your stick on the ice
Bulbi's how to FBT5
The FBT5, a red strain sent to me by my welsh brother Z to the Pharma, this and the other one he sent me are gonna be my first red strains, though i was growing reds last time but i wasnt lol, so this is it, let's see how i do , hope they sprout ! I dipped these seeds overnight in water with a few drops of my specially made kelp extract and then I basically followed the RQS instructions for their propagator https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gt1-geupkt8 comes with this brown powder... no idea what it is though lol ! well i was nervous it wasnt gonna sprout but it very well did on day 2 and had roots sticking out day three, gave her a tea spoon of water on day 3 and transplanted her on day 5. Let's see how the purple punch does ! ๐Ÿš€

I feel like a kid on Christmas morning with this one being harvested. The terps scream loud, and they're covered in frost. I decided I'll be doing some bubble wash with these so they're where harvested and put directly into the freezer until I wash them. Stay tuned to see what the Hash and Rosin look like as I'm excited. It's more on the Sativa side so not a small plant as I chopped 3 getting a wet weight of 705g of beauty flowers. All in all Happy Growing.

Purple Haze By Zamnesia Pheno A
๐Ÿ’œ 8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Week 12 Purple Haze by Zamnesia โ€“ Pheno A The Girl Who Keeps Hitting Fast-Forward ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒธ Welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And... I honestly don't know how many more times I can say this girl is moving fast. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ Because every single week... she proves me wrong again. Purple Haze Pheno A. Still shining. Still building. Still evolving. Still moving at a ridiculous pace. And those flowers? Well... "Big" doesn't really seem to cover it anymore. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Enormous. Ginormous. Gigantic. Massive. Pick your word. She's got the flowers to justify pretty much all of them. ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ And here's the funny part... SHE'S STILL FAR FROM FINISHING. ๐Ÿ˜‚ That's probably the most impressive part of this whole story. We're looking at flowers that are already becoming seriously substantial, we're seeing obvious week-to-week evolution, we're watching the structure change in front of our eyes... and yet... there is still plenty of road ahead. So once again... we're not calling her finished. We're not calling her close. We're not predicting the ending. We're simply documenting what she's doing right now. And right now? She's absolutely flying. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฅ WEEK 12 โ€“ STILL ON FIRE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ If last week was: "This girl is really on fire." Then this week is: "Okay... somebody check the fire extinguisher." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿš’ Purple Haze Pheno A keeps moving. And what's particularly noticeable isn't just the size of the flowers. It's the speed of the evolution. Every week... I can look at the previous photographs and immediately see something different. The flowers are bigger. The structures are more developed. The stacking is more obvious. The resin is becoming more visible. The plant is becoming increasingly impressive. And that change isn't subtle anymore. It's becoming notorious. You can actually see it from one weekly update to the next. That's one of the things I love most about keeping these individual diaries. Memory can play tricks on you. You walk into the room every day. You see the same plants. And because you're looking at them constantly, gradual change can become difficult to appreciate. Then you put last week's photographs next to this week's... and suddenly: "WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED HERE?" ๐Ÿ˜‚ That's Purple Haze Pheno A. She's evolving. Fast. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ THE BUDS ARE GETTING RIDICULOUS โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Let's just talk about the obvious part. The flowers. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ They're getting BIG. And I mean... really big. Looking at the photographs this week, the flowering structures are becoming increasingly substantial throughout the plant. They're no longer simply developing little clusters. They're becoming serious flowers. The branches are carrying increasingly impressive structures. The stacking is becoming more pronounced. And the overall appearance is starting to change dramatically. The plant is beginning to look less like: "I am building flowers." and more like: "Look what I've already built." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ But again... she's not done. That's what makes this so fascinating. We're looking at enormous flowers... while still knowing there is more development to come. So I'm not trying to imagine the final result. I'm simply enjoying the chapter we're in. And this chapter? It's a good one. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿš€ FASTER. AND FASTER. AND FASTER. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ I know I've used the word "fast" a lot in this diary. But... what else am I supposed to call it? ๐Ÿ˜‚ She keeps moving faster. Or at least, the visible evolution from one week to the next keeps becoming more obvious. The difference between photographs is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. Week after week: ๐ŸŒธ More flower development. ๐Ÿ’Ž More visible resin. ๐ŸŒฟ More substantial structures. ๐Ÿ”ฅ More stacking. ๐Ÿ’œ More personality. It's almost like watching a time-lapse... except we're doing it one weekly update at a time. And that makes this phenotype incredibly satisfying to follow. Because you don't have to imagine the progression. You can actually see it. Photograph by photograph. Week by week. And Purple Haze Pheno A is giving us one hell of a visual timeline. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’Ž THE FROST IS FOLLOWING THE FLOWERS โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Of course... the flowers aren't developing alone. The resin is continuing to become increasingly noticeable too. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž The more substantial the flowers become, the more obvious that frosty character becomes throughout the structures. And this is where the camera becomes such an important part of the diary. From across the room, you see big flowers. Get closer... and you start seeing the resin. Get closer again... and suddenly there's an entire microscopic landscape happening on the surface. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฌ๐Ÿ’Ž That's one of the reasons I never get tired of photographing these girls. The plant gives you one story with your eyes. The camera gives you another. And Purple Haze Pheno A is becoming particularly rewarding to photograph because there is simply more and more happening inside those flowers. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’œ SHE'S STARTING TO LOOK LIKE HER NAME โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ There's something about this phenotype that has become increasingly recognizable. The structure. The flower formation. The colour. The way she stacks. The way she develops. The way she seems to accelerate from one week to the next. She's developing her own signature. And that's exactly what we want from an experiment like this. We're not looking for twelve identical plants. We're looking for individual expression. And Purple Haze Pheno A has certainly made her expression clear. She's the fast girl. The girl who doesn't seem particularly interested in waiting around. The girl who looks at the room and says: "Everybody ready?" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ And then takes off. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ SAME ROOM โ€“ DIFFERENT SPEED โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ And once again... this is where the 8ร—8 Adventure becomes fascinating. Because nothing about her environment is being specially designed to make her behave this way. She's sharing the room. Same general environmental conditions. Same lighting philosophy. Same irrigation approach. Same nutritional foundation. Same 12/12 schedule. Same general care. And yet... look at her. She's moving differently. This is why I keep coming back to genetics. The environment provides the opportunity. The phenotype determines how that opportunity is expressed. And Purple Haze Pheno A is clearly making her own decisions. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ She's not waiting for anybody else. She's doing her thing. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ก SAME PHOTONS โ€“ BIGGER RESPONSE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The lighting environment also remains the upgraded setup we've been testing in the 8ร—8. We've added the two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures. Rather than running everything at maximum output, we've reduced the power to approximately: ๐Ÿ”Œ ~59% from the plug And we're seeing approximately: โ˜€๏ธ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with intensity naturally changing according to canopy height and position. And this is another part of the experiment I really enjoy. The room has more lighting capability than before. But we're controlling how much of that capability we're actually using. We're not chasing a number simply because we can. We're creating a powerful lighting environment and then managing it. And Purple Haze Pheno A? She's clearly putting those photons to work. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ˜€๏ธ PHOTONS IN โ€“ FLOWERS OUT โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Obviously, biology is much more complicated than saying: "More photons = bigger flowers." ๐Ÿ˜‚ But there is something beautiful about watching the invisible become visible. The lights provide photons. The leaves capture energy. The plant processes that energy. And the results become visible over time. Leaves. Branches. Flowers. Resin. Structure. Growth. We can't see the photons themselves. But we can see the consequences of the plant using that energy. And when you compare Purple Haze Pheno A from week to week... those consequences are becoming very obvious. She's building. She's developing. She's filling out. And she's doing it quickly. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ THE STACKING IS BECOMING SERIOUS โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ One of the biggest visual changes I'm seeing is the amount of structure developing within the flowers. The stacking is becoming more pronounced. Flower sites are becoming increasingly substantial. And the branches are starting to look like they're carrying much more than they were only a few weeks ago. This is where I really appreciate having those full-plant photographs. Because you can step back and see the architecture. Then you can move closer and see the flowers. Then closer again... and see the individual details. The whole plant tells one story. The individual flowers tell another. And together? They show us how quickly this girl is evolving. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’œ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ THE WEEK-TO-WEEK DIFFERENCE IS GETTING NOTORIOUS โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This deserves its own section because it's honestly one of the most satisfying things about this plant. Look at last week's photographs. Now look at this week's. ๐Ÿ˜‚ There it is. That difference. It's not something I have to invent with words. It's right there in the images. The flowers are becoming more substantial. The structure is changing. The plant looks fuller. The developing buds have more presence. The resin is increasingly obvious. And the whole girl simply looks further along. That's the beauty of a weekly diary. We don't have to rely on memory. We can document. Compare. Observe. And learn. Purple Haze Pheno A is giving us an excellent example of how quickly a phenotype can visibly change over a relatively short period. And we're lucky enough to have the photographs to prove it. ๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ SHE DOESN'T NEED TO BE THE TALLEST โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ At around 120 cm, she's still not one of the giants of the room. And that's another thing I love about her. She doesn't need to be the tallest plant to make herself noticed. She's making the space count. Her flowers are doing the talking. Her structure is doing the talking. Her development is doing the talking. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ It's not about how many centimetres she has added. It's about what she's doing with the structure she already has. And right now... she's doing a lot. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ LET HER DO HER THING โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ And just like with the rest of the room... I'm not trying to manufacture work. She's healthy-looking. She's developing. She's building flowers. She's responding to the environment. So my job is becoming increasingly simple. Observe. Pay attention. Check the environment. Monitor irrigation. Monitor nutrition. Watch the plant. And if something actually needs attention... then we respond. Otherwise? Let her work. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฑ I don't need to constantly interfere just because she's moving quickly. In fact, the opposite. When a plant is doing beautifully... sometimes the smartest thing you can do is stay out of her way. She's got a job to do. And she's doing it. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โš—๏ธ NUTRITION โ€“ SAME FOUNDATION, GRADUAL CHANGES โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The room continues with the current nutritional programme, with the flowering nutrition being adjusted gradually as we move further into the later stages. Current room recipe remains approximately: ๐ŸŒฑ Plagron Terra Bloom โ€“ 2.3 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Power Buds โ€“ 1 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Green Sensation โ€“ 1 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Sugar Royal โ€“ 1 ml/L โš—๏ธ pH adjusted as required Current solution values remain around: โš—๏ธ pH โ€“ ~6.02 โšก EC โ€“ ~2.14 mS/cm And the important thing for Purple Haze Pheno A is not simply what goes into the reservoir. It's how she responds. And she's responding beautifully. She's building. She's developing. She's progressing. And she's giving us absolutely no reason to start inventing problems where there aren't any. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒก๏ธ WEEK 12 โ€“ ROOM CONDITIONS โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The room remains broadly stable around: ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature: ~26.5ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature: ~26ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง RH: ~61% ๐ŸŒฑ Substrate temperature: ~25ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ฆ Nutrient solution: ~25ยฐC โš—๏ธ pH: ~6.02 โšก EC: ~2.14 mS/cm ๐Ÿ’จ COโ‚‚: ~693 ppm ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule: 12/12 ๐Ÿ’ง Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h ?

But put her beside the other eleven plants... and suddenly the story becomes much more interesting. You can see the differences. Different speed. Different flower formation. Different structure. Different timing. Different expression. And that's why I don't want to compare these girls as if they're supposed to reach identical milestones at identical times. The value is in the differences. Purple Haze Pheno A is showing us a particularly fast-moving expression. Passion Fruitz is showing us a much slower rhythm. Other girls sit somewhere in between. Same room. Different clocks. And that's exactly what makes this adventure so much fun. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฅ STILL FAR FROM THE FINISH โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Now... I need to say this again because those flowers are getting ridiculous. ๐Ÿ˜‚ SHE IS STILL FAR FROM FINISHING. Yes. The buds are enormous. Yes. The stacking is impressive. Yes. The weekly evolution is obvious. Yes. She's moving faster and faster. But no... we are not suddenly at the finish line. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ There is still plenty of development ahead. The flowers can continue to change. The structures can continue to develop. The resin can continue to evolve. The plant can continue maturing. So I'm not looking at her thinking about an ending. I'm looking at her thinking: "How much more is this girl going to build?" And that's a much more exciting question. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ KEEP THE CAMERA READY โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ At this point... I think the camera needs to stay permanently ready for her. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ Because with the rate she's changing, I don't want to miss the little details. Every week is giving us another snapshot. Another moment. Another version of Purple Haze Pheno A. And when we eventually look back over the entire diary... I think this plant is going to be one of those where the transformation is particularly obvious. Because the weekly progression is already becoming so noticeable. The plant isn't just growing. She's visibly changing. And the photographs are capturing it. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ THE FAST GIRL CLAIMS THE SPOTLIGHT โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Some plants quietly develop. Some take their time. Some surprise you later. And then there is Purple Haze Pheno A... who apparently has somewhere to be. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ She's moving. She's building. She's stacking. She's getting bigger. She's getting frostier. And she's doing it week after week. So yes... the spotlight belongs to her again. Not because she's competing with anyone. Not because we're declaring her better than another phenotype. But because her particular story this week is impossible to ignore. She's changing rapidly. And she's beautiful while doing it. That's worth celebrating. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฎ WHAT AM I WATCHING NOW? โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ At this point, the questions are getting more interesting. How much more will the flowers develop? How much more substantial will the buds become? How will the resin expression continue to evolve? How will the plant change over the coming weeks? How long will this rapid visible progression continue? And perhaps most importantly... what is this girl going to look like when she finally decides she's done? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ I have no idea. And I'm perfectly happy keeping it that way. Because the fun is watching her answer those questions herself. No predictions. No forcing the story. Just documentation. Week by week. Photograph by photograph. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ญ FINAL THOUGHTS โ€“ SHE'S STILL ON FIRE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Week 12. And Purple Haze Pheno A is still absolutely on fire. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ If anything... she's turned the heat up again. The flowers are enormous. Ginormous. Gigantic. Whatever word you want to use... they're getting seriously substantial. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒธ And yet... she's still far from finishing. That's what makes this so fascinating. We're watching a plant that is clearly progressing rapidly, while still having plenty of journey ahead. The difference from one week to the next is becoming notorious. You can see it. The flowers change. The stacking changes. The structure changes. The resin changes. The whole plant evolves. And that's exactly what I want from this diary. I don't want to guess what she'll become. I want to document it. I want to look back later and say: "Look at her here." Then: "Look at her here." Then: "WHAT THE HELL?!" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ That's Purple Haze Pheno A. Same room. Same photons. Same general environment. Same irrigation. Same nutritional foundation. Different genetics. Different expression. And one hell of a fast-moving girl. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ”ฅ So let's give her the spotlight. Let's turn the lights up on the story. Let's keep the camera ready. Let's keep watching those enormous flowers evolve. And let's let this girl continue doing what she's clearly very good at: moving. Building. Stacking. Frosting. Evolving. And shining. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ She's not finished. She's not close to being finished. She's simply moving faster and faster toward whatever comes next. And I cannot wait to keep documenting it. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ™ THANK YOU โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ As always, a massive thank you to everyone following the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document these individual journeys and share what we're learning along the way. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Purple Haze genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore this beautiful phenotype.
