As of the afternoon of May 15th, I have begun some LST with binder clips/safety pins and some soft pipe cleaners. With the exception of the Critical Jack, I think most of the plants are showing some signs of excess Calcium and Nitrogen so I am going to take CALiMAGic out of their feeding regimen and cut the nutrients down to 1/4 strength as of this afternoon. The Dinafem Critical Jack Auto is now the tallest plant and seems to be the healthiest one of the bunch at this point, she keeps amazing me every day. The Seedsman White Widow Auto is not very tolerant to feedings and its stems & branches seem to be weaker than the others; very bushy. Both the Dinafem Industrial Plant Autoflowering CBD and the Mephisto Ripley's OG are very healthy but are growing very squat and bushy -- which made trying some LST for the first time a bit more challenging! As of the evening of May 17th, I noticed pre-flowers on both the Critical Jack and the Ripley's OG. The Critical Jack is certainly stretching out right now! The White Widow and the Industrial Plant CBD look like they should be getting pre-flowers by the end of the week. The Critical Jack has taken to being under the ViparSpectra 600 light more than the MarsHydro Mars II 1200 light -- something to keep an eye on?

Day 57, didn't upload anything as nothing had changed. Day 58, still no noticeable changes to her but gave her a pH 6 drink. QB still hasn't arrived but hoping soon. The temps here have turned very pleasant and the tent stays between 21 and 25 throughout the day and night. My humidity also stays under 50% which is nice. Ordered a PPM meter, more pH calibration solution and some new soil for the next grow after this one. Ordered some "Super soil" mix that apparently should cover the first 2 months of nutes. Fully prepared to make the next grow a good one after the learning experience on this. I managed to source 5 RQS Diesel Autos and 5 RQS Royal Madre Fotos (I guess the guy only had stock of the older seeds as he listed it by that name and not the Mother Gorilla that I wish it was). I also have the random bagseed growing in the tent with this NL Auto still in Veg but it showed sex this week and turned out to be female. I was using it to practice HST and attempted to FIM / Top her so I will see how she grows and maybe finish her out before starting my next grow of the Diesel Autos, probably 2 at a time. Day 59. Noticing a lot of the lower leaves are yellowing more than before. Not sure if this is at a normal rate or because of a deficiency. Bud sizes don't seem to be increasing in size still but I am not expecting them too at this stage. I am hoping the yellowing is a normal process at this age and isn't happening too soon as she doesn't have a lot of them to spare if they start dropping off this quickly! Day 60. Definitely noticing a lot of leaves starting to fade and die. I am not sure if I should be doing something to fix this or if its part of the natural cycle at this point in her life? Buds look like they are putting on some nice frost though and the smell is really strong now. I had got used to it because when I left the house for shopping and came back, I could smell her from downstairs. Need to invest in a filter but for now making sure the door is closed in the room with the tent seems to be working. Day 61. Decided to give her a watering today as she was looking a bit droopy. My PPM meter still hasn't arrived so I am unable to check the runoff at this point but hopefully the soil isn't still too hot for her. Also waiting for the loupe to arrive to check trichs but from my best attempts to zoom in on them, they still look to have a fair ways to go. Day 62. She's still chugging along. Haven't noticed any new issues or changes to her today since watering yesterday. Temps got a bit cold last night and the tent dropped to 18c from its usual 21c at night. Doesn't seem to have bothered her too much though. QB arrived today! Swapped out the noisy hot blurple for this 150W QB. Currently running it on 100W as I am not sure if the shock between the 230W actual draw blurple to 150W QB would stress the girl out too badly. Already have to say the light coming off this thing feels "cleaner" somehow and its a beauty for taking pictures with. In love already and can't wait to get the next one going. I have a bag seed in veg in the same tent as the auto that I was planning on flowering after she is done, I think the QB on this intensity might fry her though? Day 63. She has spent some time under the new QB and hasn't shown any visible signs of stress with the light sitting at 13" and 100W. I bumped the wattage up to 110 this morning and plan to do 10W more a day until at the full 150W. Gave her a watering today until about 10% runoff. Watered at 6.5 and the run off measured in at 6.6 so next watering I will go for a lower pH. Not sure how it's built up as I've been watering around 6 for a while. Will keep a close eye on her again after bumping the wattage and watering her. The bag seed seems to be perfectly happy with the change in lighting as well and hasn't shown any signs of stress yet. Also got my seeds today! Will likely grow one or two together, not sure which yet though and will wait for the bag seed to finish up. Will give her the whole tent for flowering to see what kind of yields it will pull. Anyone got experience with the strains Royal Madre or the Blue Cheese from RQS?

This solocup grow is moving along nicely. Shes flooring and starting to want to stack. Smells very strong of fuel. HOWEVER I did catch 4 different pollen sacks this week. I was able to remove all of them before they ever opened. I kmow the correct move would be to eliminate the herm. But, I would really like to make this grow work! I'm gonna sew if she will get thru another week without causing me any more problems.. if it herms any more, I will have to execute her! I have another of the same strain running in a 5 gallon pot without any sign of herm. Id definitely say this is streas induced from the tiny pot. These are big plants with big root systems regularly. Fingers crossed I can keep her going! Of course I xould have left this part out, but its the real world. And im trying to bring it to you like it is! These things happen sometimes!. Moved her to the HPS light this week from the T5.

June 21st update. 28 days since flip. Plant is growing phenomenal. Was able to crank the lights up to 80% for the first time in this grow without her throwing a fit. All of the banana peels I’ve fed her the last few weeks have disappeared and have been feeding my soil mites and my worms. I have not had any bad pests since I started using these predator mites I love it. I can’t even begin to describe the smell of this thing. It’s like a raspberry tart mixed with just a little hint of gas. I’m so excited to give this a try when the time comes Noticing Trichomes going all the way down some of the fan leaves so that is always cool to see. Also I noticed this is common with living soil but I’m done bothering trying to defoliate. I will do one more in two weeks at day 42. But anything I remove at this point is just going to come right back. As always nothing but water. Will give her some tea tmmr like every Sunday with some big 6, worm castings, molasses, and some cow cal 24.

Day 89 - Harvest day has finally came for this lady & I beyond impressed, to only be in a 2 gallon pot she has put off some massive rock solid buds that smell amazing! Very strong stable genetics that’s can handle really anything you throw at it, would highly recommend especially to first time growers because this strain is so forgiving! Stay tuned for the harvest update & another run from spliff seeds because I will definitely be getting some of their strains🔥💪🏻 Thanks for following & happy growing friends!✌️🏼🙏🏼🌱

day 49 just pure water phed down. it is day 51, morning before lights on, I might chop today. I use a zero water filter pitcher got off walmart. My humidifier is only a sonic wave. If you use regular tap water it will get gunky in a sonic humidifier. If you have a heat humidifier that boils the water the mist should be clean. These are the 2 types of water humidifiers. Researching best water filters this "zero water" also comes with a free ppm meter! yay! Other water pitcher brands; the water still has ppm. So water misted will still have ppm contamination. You can easily used distilled water only, and reverse osmosis. I just fill a 4gal office water jug with the pitcher and fill my humidifier when needed. I do not use a humidifier in my entire grow up to this point when I chop, I need the perfect rh or this whole effort can fail. growing up to this point only requires 20% effort, chopping now for the 2 weeks dry is this 80% of crucial determination, succeed. A lot of tasks are required today for a clean chop. I feel confident, observed my cross seeds with pink paradise and one with a slightly open caylex looks dark enough for successful germination. I figured 8-16 seeds may be created, 3-4 buds were potentially pollinated. Many growers don't understand when creating genetics with female/female there is a slight chance of herm. You lose 50% of your genetic function. Just water last 2 days, no humic no folvic, 1st time entire grow ha! There is a lot of cleaning to do, remove the trees, clean the entire tent and environment with bleach water, hacksaw. I am very proud of my grow. I have sampled 3 of the strains, dr. thunder legit made my lips numb but it could have just been the terps removing my skin cells from the sticky filter, no lie. This is my best grow to date. I did this for you, and to document hype or not under the best conditions I could give my plants, full max potential, although I wish I had more lights, I am not looking for industrial lol, this is how I grow. Learn a lot on youtube and podcasts there is many good content and I may dab into it. You can have a room full of growers and you have 1 seed in your hand, they will all tell you that their way is correct ;) and the best way. Oreo is stinky AF, Bridal is just amazing glad its massive, just not into sativa but the test seemed slight sativa with majority indica, pink untested, dr, thunder just a lip numming plant aha, its very nice, all 4 amazing appeal like advertised, and excited for next run. Either crosses from this or other copycat genetics. I will give you beautiful glamout shots today, the sizes of the plants, My guesstimate bridal 1lb, thunder 1lb, pink, 0.4lb, bridal 0.5, I am ambitious off 640w lm301h, and 4x 20w blurples daisy chained. day 51 4 chopped see you in a few weeks :D

🍮 8×8 Adventure – Week 14 🌸 Chem Brûlée – Pheno B 🔥 👑 The Beast Keeps Evolving — Her Own Story, Her Own Finish Line Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And here she is again... Our beautiful Chem Brûlée Pheno B! 🍮🔥 My friends... WE STILL HAVE A BEAST! 😂🔥 Look at this girl. Look at her flowers. Look at that main cola. Look at the way she's continuing to evolve. And look at how different she is from her sister! She's amazing. She's peculiar. She's got her own character, her own structure, and her own way of expressing herself. And the further we go into this adventure, the more I appreciate having the opportunity to follow these plants individually. Because this girl isn't simply another Chem Brûlée. She's Chem Brûlée Pheno B. And she's doing a fantastic job of reminding us why individual phenotype diaries are worth the effort. This week, we're not doing anything spectacular to her. We're not introducing some dramatic new technique. We're not trying to force her into a different shape or make her follow somebody else's schedule. We're providing what she needs, observing her development, taking photographs, and letting her continue toward her own finish line. And honestly? She's doing enough work for all of us. 😂🍮🔥 So let's give this beautiful beast her own spotlight! ──────────────────────── 🔥 STILL A BEAST — AND STILL COMPLETELY HERSELF Last week, I described this girl as a different kind of beast. And I'm sticking with that description. 😂🔥🍮 She's fascinating. The flowers have their own expression, and that structure is part of what makes her so interesting to follow. She's continuing to evolve, and the overall plant is giving us plenty to appreciate. That main cola deserves attention, of course, but I don't want this report to become a story about just one flower. Because there's more to this girl than her main event. The surrounding flowers have their own character. The overall structure deserves a closer look. And the plant as a whole is what makes this phenotype so interesting. One of the best things about documenting plants week after week is that we get to follow the complete journey rather than judging everything from a single photograph. We saw her developing. We saw her establish her own personality. And now we're continuing to watch that expression unfold. She's a beast. She's beautiful. And she's still writing her own story. 🍮🌸🔥 ──────────────────────── 👑 THAT MAIN COLA DESERVES HER OWN FAN CLUB Come on... We have to talk about that main cola! 😂🔥🌸 Every time I look at this girl, that impressive central flower catches my attention. It's one of those features that makes you stop for a moment and appreciate the structure the plant has developed. But the best part is that the main cola isn't the only thing worth looking at. The other flowers deserve their share of the spotlight, too. This is why I enjoy taking photographs from different angles. A full-plant photograph tells one story. A closer photograph tells another. And when you start looking at the individual flowers, you notice details that can easily disappear when you're looking at the plant from across the room. Different shapes. Different structures. Different little details. And all of them contribute to the identity of this particular phenotype. So yes, the main cola gets its moment. But the rest of the girl gets to shine as well. 😂🍮💚 ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FLOWERS ARE TELLING THEIR OWN STORY At this stage, I'm particularly interested in watching how the whole plant continues to develop. We're not trying to force a specific appearance. We're not trying to make every flower look identical. And we're certainly not expecting every phenotype in this room to reach the same stage at exactly the same time. We're observing what is actually happening. The flowers. The overall structure. The changing appearance of the plant. The differences between this girl and her sister. And the progression from one weekly update to the next. That's the beauty of the 8×8 Adventure. We have a shared environment, but the plants aren't carbon copies of one another. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B has given us plenty of reasons to keep looking closely. She's developing in her own way. And that's precisely what we're here to document. ──────────────────────── 🌿 SAME ROOM, DIFFERENT PERSONALITIES For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure! Twelve plants. Different genetics and phenotypes. One shared room. One general environmental strategy. One 12/12 lighting schedule. One nutritional program. One lighting ecosystem. And twelve individual stories. That's the experiment. We provide the plants with a shared environment and observe how their different genetics express themselves. Some plants stretch. Some remain compact. Some develop unusual structures. Some progress faster than others. And even plants from the same genetic line can show differences that make following them individually worthwhile. Chem Brûlée Pheno A has her own expression. Chem Brûlée Pheno B has hers. They're related, but they're not identical. And I don't want to lose that individuality by treating them as one generic plant. That's why we're giving this girl her own report again. Same room. Same general conditions. Same photons. Different phenotype. Different expression. Different story. 💚🌱 ──────────────────────── 💡 THE ARTIFICIAL SUN — FUTURE OF GROW BLACK SERIES The upgraded lighting setup remains part of the 8×8 Adventure. Our Future of Grow Black Series LEDs continue to provide the main lighting, with the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures supplied for this experiment remaining part of the setup. Following their installation, the output was reduced to approximately 59% from the plug. Our previous working reference was around 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy, with actual intensity varying according to plant height and position. The interesting part isn't simply having more lighting capacity. It's having that capacity available while being able to control the output. We're not running everything at maximum just because we can. And across this room, we're getting to observe how different plants develop under the same general lighting environment. Chem Brûlée Pheno B is giving us her own answer. Same artificial sun. Same room. Different genetic expression. ☀️💚 A massive thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to explore this upgraded setup. It's been a great addition to the project, and having the opportunity to document the plants throughout the experiment makes the whole experience even more interesting. ──────────────────────── 🔴 THE RED-LIGHT UPDATE — LET'S TALK SCIENCE As promised, we're continuing the discussion about the additional 15-minute red-light period after the main lighting period. And since these are individual reports from the same room, I want to keep the explanation consistent across the diaries. Plants respond to more than just the total amount of light they receive. They also respond to wavelength and timing. One important group of plant photoreceptors is the phytochrome system, which responds to red and far-red light and helps plants interpret changes in their light environment. These responses can influence plant development, but the outcome depends on several factors, including the spectrum, intensity, duration, timing, and the plant's physiological state. Our additional 15-minute red-light period is part of the lighting routine we're documenting. However, I want to be clear about something. We're not claiming that this short period automatically improves flowering, increases yield, or guarantees a better finish. Those are specific outcomes that require evidence. We're documenting the routine and exploring the science behind it, rather than promising results we haven't established. That's an important distinction. There's nothing wrong with experimenting or being curious about different lighting approaches. But we should always separate what we know from what we're investigating. And that's exactly what we're doing here. 🔴🌱💡 ──────────────────────── 🔬 THE EMERSON EFFECT — WHY TWO PHOTOSYSTEMS MATTER While we're talking about light, let's revisit the Emerson effect. This is a well-established phenomenon in photosynthesis, and it's a fascinating example of how plants use different wavelengths of light. In simplified terms, the Emerson effect describes an increase in photosynthetic activity when certain red and far-red wavelengths are supplied together, producing a response greater than expected from their individual effects under the relevant experimental conditions. The explanation involves two cooperating photosystems: 🌿 Photosystem II (PSII) 🌿 Photosystem I (PSI) Both are essential parts of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. They work together to convert light energy into chemical energy that the plant can use. Their light-absorption characteristics differ, and under suitable conditions, combining particular wavelengths can improve the balance between their activity. That's the basic principle behind the Emerson effect. But here's where we need to be careful. The Emerson effect doesn't mean that any red-light treatment will automatically increase photosynthesis. And it doesn't mean that our additional 15-minute red-light period after the main lighting period is necessarily reproducing the classic Emerson effect. The classic phenomenon involves the combined effects of particular red and far-red wavelengths under specific illumination conditions. Our lighting routine is a different situation. To establish a measurable benefit, we would need to know the actual spectrum and intensity and use suitable comparisons to determine whether the treatment produces a meaningful difference. So, the Emerson effect is real. The underlying science is fascinating. But we shouldn't automatically attribute a benefit to our particular routine without evidence. That's how we keep the educational side of this adventure honest. We can explore. We can question. We can observe. And we can keep learning. 🔬💡🌱 ──────────────────────── 🌙 RED LIGHT AND THE END OF THE LIGHTING PERIOD One final distinction is worth mentioning. Red light and far-red light are not interchangeable. They interact with plant photoreceptors differently, and their effects depend on the conditions in which they're used. A short red-light period after the main lighting period isn't automatically equivalent to a far-red treatment, and neither guarantees a particular outcome. For this project, we're documenting our additional 15-minute red-light period as part of the lighting routine. We're not presenting it as a proven yield-enhancing treatment or claiming that it necessarily improves the plant's transition into darkness. If we want to determine whether it makes a measurable difference, we need suitable comparisons and measurements. Until then, we can discuss the science, document our observations, and remain open to what the evidence shows. That's what I enjoy about these projects. There's always something new to learn, and we don't need to pretend we have every answer. 💚🔬 ──────────────────────── 🌱 NUTRITION — PROVIDING WHAT SHE NEEDS As with the rest of the room, the general nutritional program remains consistent with our previous update. Our last recorded recipe reference was: 🌱 Plagron Pure Zym — 1 ml/L ⚗️ Plagron pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L 🍋 Plagron Lemon Kick — 0.03 ml/L 🌸 Plagron Terra Bloom — 2 ml/L 🌿 Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L 🍯 Plagron Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Green Sensation — 1 ml/L The previous solution readings were approximately pH 6.04 and EC 2.05 mS/cm. We're not introducing a dramatic new nutritional change simply to make this week's report sound more exciting. We're continuing to observe the plants and maintain the shared approach. As each plant progresses, we can assess whether anything actually needs to change rather than making decisions based solely on the calendar. Consistency is part of the experiment. And individual observation is what helps us understand the differences between the girls. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ WEEK 14 — ROOM CONDITIONS The previous room reference readings remain: 🌸 Flowering — Week 14 💡 Light schedule — 12/12 💡 Lighting — Future of Grow Black Series, upgraded setup 🔌 Approximate lighting output — 59% from the plug ☀️ Upper-canopy PPFD reference — ~1,500 🌡️ Day temperature — ~27°C 🌙 Night temperature — ~26°C 💧 Relative humidity — ~61% ⚗️ Previous pH reading — ~6.04 ⚡ Previous EC reading — ~2.05 mS/cm 🌡️ Nutrient solution temperature — ~25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature — ~25°C 🌬️ CO₂ — ~693 ppm 🌱 Pot size — 15 L 💦 Previous irrigation reference — ~1.45 L per plant / 24h These are the previous shared room readings, rather than a claim that every parameter has been remeasured this week. The overall approach remains consistent, and we're continuing to observe how each individual plant develops within that environment. Same room. Same general setup. Same lighting ecosystem. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B continues giving us her own expression. ──────────────────────── 📸 WE'RE OBSERVING, NOT INVENTING WORK I think this deserves its own little section because it reflects where we are in the adventure. We're doing very little physical work with this girl right now. And that's intentional. We're not looking for something to change simply because another week has passed. We're not trying to force a new technique into the diary. We're not trying to make the plant follow a schedule we've invented for her. We're observing. We're documenting. We're providing what she needs. And we're letting the plant continue her journey. Sometimes a grower needs to intervene. Sometimes a grower needs to investigate a problem. And sometimes a grower simply needs to step back, look at the plant, and appreciate what's happening. This week is very much about that last part. 😂🍮💚 The plant is the main character. We're here to document her story. ──────────────────────── 💬 COME JOIN THE DOG DOCTOR COMMUNITY! If you're enjoying the 8×8 Adventure and want to talk about growing, genetics, lighting, equipment, experiments, or your own growing journey, come and join us on Discord! We love a good discussion. Questions are welcome. Different experiences are welcome. And respectful debates about techniques and equipment are part of how we all learn. Whether you want to share your progress, ask questions, exchange ideas, or simply hang out with fellow growers, come say hello. 💚🌱 🔗 https://discord.gg/dogdoctorofficial Bring your questions. Bring your experience. Bring your curiosity. And let's keep learning from one another. Growers helping growers. That's what it's all about! ──────────────────────── ❤️ FINAL THOUGHTS — THE BEAST IS STILL SHINING Week 14. Chem Brûlée Pheno B. And yes, my friends... we still have a beast! 😂🍮🔥 She's beautiful. She's peculiar. She's continuing to evolve. And she's doing it in her own way. That main cola deserves its attention, but the entire plant deserves appreciation. We're watching the flowers. We're watching the overall development. We're documenting her progress. And we're allowing her to continue toward her own finish line. No unnecessary interventions. No invented harvest dates. No dramatic changes just for the sake of having something new to report. We're simply providing what she needs and observing the journey. We've also revisited our red-light routine and the Emerson effect because these reports are an opportunity to share knowledge, not just photographs. The Emerson effect is an established photosynthetic phenomenon involving the cooperation of two photosystems under particular illumination conditions. Our additional 15-minute red-light period is something we're documenting, but we shouldn't claim that it reproduces the Emerson effect or guarantees a particular benefit. We can experiment without overpromising. We can be enthusiastic without abandoning scientific accuracy. And we can appreciate a beautiful plant while remaining curious about the science behind the environment she's growing in. That's what makes this adventure worthwhile. 💚🔬🌱 So, Chem Brûlée Pheno B... Keep doing your thing, beautiful beast. Keep evolving. Keep showing us your personality. We're not going to rush you. We're not going to make unnecessary changes. We're simply going to keep observing, keep documenting, and enjoy the journey toward your own finish line. Same room. Same photons. Different phenotype. Your own expression. Your own story. 🍮🌸🔥💚 And when you're ready for the next chapter, we'll be here with the camera. ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU A huge thank you to Zamnesia for the Chem Brûlée genetics and for giving us the opportunity to follow these individual phenotypes throughout the 8×8 Adventure. 🌸🙏 Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of the journey and helping us maintain consistency throughout the project. 🌱 A massive thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting and especially for supplying the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures we're testing in this room. 💡🔥 Thank you to LumiFlora for adding another lighting dimension deeper into the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us monitor and maintain the environment behind the scenes. And, of course, thank you to everyone following these reports on GrowDiaries. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every photograph. Every week spent following these twelve different plant stories. It all becomes part of the adventure. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B? She's still giving us plenty to appreciate. A beautiful phenotype. A peculiar expression. An impressive main cola. And a personality that makes her stand out in her own way. 🍮🌸🔥💚 If you'd like to join the conversation, come and find us on Discord: 🔗 https://discord.gg/dogdoctorofficial Let's keep sharing experiences, asking questions, and learning together. Until next week, keep shining, beautiful beast. We're watching, we're learning, and we're enjoying every chapter. Growers Love & Happy Growing! 🌱💚🍮🔥

En esta segunda semana aumento la intendidad del LED hasta alcanzar 18.000 LUX en la punta de las plantas, manteniendo la distancia de 50cm. En uno de los riegos agrego nitrógeno (Fish Mix), en otro Bio Heaven, y siempre CalMag, ya que parto de un agua de baja mineralización (EC 0.05)
