CBD Caramel is still doing stellar and is at the top of the class as far as height. Still getting a little bug damage tho, so I sprayed with neem oil, again. Going to water in some Big Bloom and Molasses later. Really good week.

SCROGING is an amazing technique that I will get better at but this being my first real attempt I clearly see how important it is to get everything cleaned up under the net. I’m not touching anything now and I’ll just do better next time. Anyways my garden looks really good, and the buds look real good and my canopy is pretty even. I mean it’s 4 or 5 inches off and if I would have tucked one more time I could have got things a bit more even. The Grand daddy purples buds are definitely going to be lighter. The vanilla frostings buds are going to dense and thick. If I take what I’ve seen from the past couple harvests my light will really turn these buds into little dense monsters. The viperspectra PAR1200 is a good light and makes heavy dense buds. I highly recommend the PAR1200 for a 3 x 3 space. Happy 420! Update - I think I missed 1 week in my grow. Today’s the last day of week 4 and I gave the girls a little trim today and cleaned those big fan leaves off. What a difference a little trim makes! I took these new photos about 8 hours after their trim. All those buds sites that were being covered reached out and here’s a few pictures of what was underneath. Have a great weekend!

You can find tbe first week of all girls on my profile, second week is missing coz its just boring and now i start week 3 so its day 15 today from placing seeds to germination. Uploaded a video of their habitat, i still wont name each one indifidually coz i still didnt choose winners / keepers. Unfortunatelly i have a bit low RH for this stage of growth but they obviously dont mind, i spray them twice a day, no burns from spraying with lights on, no electroshocks caused by spraying so all good now. I tried it all enough to be able to say i cant be assed anymore :D Since @growdiaries are not keen on resolving a problem with uploading each pic individually on androids, i will keep one diary for all girls, dont even mind not being able to compete in dom. Stay tuned these girls will rock.

The girls continue to grow very nicely! All the girls have gone into flowering and I have upgraded to the 600W light now to push these girls and see what we can get from the final harvest 😋 They are still on the vega feed for now whilst they are in the early flower stage. Not alot to report except the front girl had a very slight amount of nute burn but rolling with it as the other girls are fine and its minimal signs so far! If it gets worse maybe will adjust the feed!

Welcome to my diary of the Misty Gorlla by Zambeza seeds looking nice, popped of the soil, i noticed it today and took some pictures This strain won the first prize in the Higtimes cup in 2015 for section: Hybrid so that sounds very promising i'm using re-used soil for this one, so i can add some guano at proper level on clean soil.

day 7 Flowering: Hi all . It has been the start of their flowering this week and the initial stages of their stretch period. Time to exploit the burst of growth and set them in position for full light absorbing relaxation. The less stress to get light , the more focus on creating the beauty in flowering hopefully. I took some time to do a clear out of the small scrappy growth low down the stems to focus on the happy growing bud sites higher up. With their shape and size , the flowers would have been within the ball shapes and unable to develop properly. The shape of the plants from the tip spreading is very helpful now. I am able to tuck the really big powerhouse fans , underneath the developing lowers. This supports the lower growth to head higher but also keeps the main stem powered by the very important big fans. As these are autoflowers and able to use the available light through the huge fans , it can only be beneficial to keep them as long as possible while they are not blocking anything. The difference between the strains is noticable more now with the Strawberry Pie wanting to spread her branching more . Tip spreading has kept them smaller but their nature still has them wanting the long node lengths and cluster bud structures as opposed to long donkey di#ks. The other strains have benefited more from it and in particular, the #2 Six Shooter has an amazing amount of hopeful mains all fighting for focus so should be a good example of how tip spreading really works to create productive , squat beasts. Fingers crossed.lol They are still being fed just water with no additional boosts beside the last top dressings. I will be watering again with the biosys tea but they look so happy and green that I wont be adding any other products unless I notice a need. Cal.mag being the exception as I want to avoid the expected deficits from using l.e.d , before it can slow anything down in repair/recovery. The light is covering them all perfectly and with the height still to be lowered after the stretch is done , I know from previous Mars lights, the big solid nugs will appear.... I have used a video to show the past weeks growth rather than the usual pics and hope this will be more interesting than having to scroll pics. I also noticed a few leaf miners among the other plants and suspect we have some migration here too. Not too serious as yet but before it gets too bad , I used a store bought spray ( organic) to hopefully get to grips before they do. Failing this , a good smoke bomb might be used. Until the next time , be well and loved.

🍬 Candy Rain Auto by Zamnesia | Week 12 ✨ The Glamorous Survivor Is Getting Louder and Louder 🍬🔥🌸 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 Well... Our solo survivor has apparently decided that being quiet and elegant was not enough anymore. 😂 She's getting louder. And louder. And louder. 🍬🔥🌸 The stacking is becoming impossible to ignore. The flowers are becoming more substantial. She's continuing to build all over the plant. And every time I look at her, I find another little detail that wasn't quite as obvious the week before. She's beautiful. She's becoming more impressive. And she's definitely making herself heard now. 😂🍬 This is Candy Rain Auto. Our survivor. Our glamorous survivor. Our solo girl. And at this point... she's basically saying: "Okay, enough talking. Look at what I'm building." 😂🌸🔥 So... let's look. ──────────────────────── 🍬 WEEK 12 – SHE'S GETTING LOUD ──────────────────────── There are plants that quietly develop. There are plants that suddenly explode. And then there is Candy Rain... who appears to have chosen the middle ground and simply keeps getting louder every single week. 😂 She's stacking. She's bulking. She's developing flowers throughout her structure. And the whole plant is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. What I really like is that there isn't just one area doing all the work. The flowering structures are developing throughout the plant. You look at one branch... then another... then another... and there's always something happening. Another flower. Another developing cola. Another little section gaining volume. Another area catching the light. It's becoming a beautiful, continuous story. 🌸🍬🌿 ──────────────────────── 🔥 STACKING, STACKING & MORE STACKING ──────────────────────── This is probably the biggest thing I notice this week. She's stacking. And she's stacking beautifully. 🌸🔥🌸🔥🌸 The flowers are becoming increasingly defined. The structures are getting more substantial. And the plant is starting to look less like a girl who is simply flowering... and more like a girl who has decided: "Right. We're building now." 😂 And I absolutely love watching that transition. Because we've been following this plant from much earlier in the run. We've watched her establish herself. We've watched her flower. We've watched her develop. We've watched the first flowers become larger structures. And now... we're watching those structures continue to stack and gain presence. That's the beauty of doing these weekly diaries. You don't just see a plant. You see the progression. ──────────────────────── 📢 SHE'S GETTING LOUDER ──────────────────────── I keep coming back to that word. Louder. 😂🍬🔥 Because visually... that's exactly how it feels. She's making herself known. The flowers are becoming more obvious. The stacking is becoming more obvious. The overall plant is becoming more substantial. And the closer we get... the more she seems to say: "Hello? Are you looking at me yet?" 😂 Yes, Candy Rain. We are. We definitely are. 🍬👀🌸 ──────────────────────── 🌼 THOSE PISTILS ARE CHANGING ──────────────────────── And now we're starting to see another little part of the story develop. The pistils. 🌼➡️🌸 She's beginning to change their colour. We're starting to see some of that earlier bright, warm appearance evolve. They're no longer all sitting there looking exactly the same. There's a transition happening. And I really enjoy watching this because it's one of those small visual details that becomes much more obvious when you follow the same plant week after week. She's still carrying plenty of green. She's still very much a green girl. But we're beginning to see those little changes developing within the flowers. And that's another reminder that she's moving. She's progressing. She's following her own rhythm. Nothing feels rushed. Nothing feels forced. She's simply moving along exactly as she seems to want to. 🍬🌼💚 ──────────────────────── 💚 STILL PLENTY OF GREEN ──────────────────────── And yes... there's still a lot of green. 😂🌿 Candy Rain is not suddenly turning into an autumn postcard. She's still carrying plenty of beautiful green foliage. And that's perfectly fine. She's still developing. She's still stacking. She's still bulking. She's still doing her thing. I don't want to force the story into some expectation of what she "should" look like at a particular moment. That's one of the things this whole project has taught me. Every plant has its own rhythm. Every phenotype expresses itself differently. And Candy Rain is telling us her story in her own language. So... we watch. We document. We appreciate. And we let her continue. ──────────────────────── 🌿 SHE'S FOLLOWING HER OWN RHYTHM ──────────────────────── This girl has never really been interested in following anybody else's schedule. 😂 And I love that. She's moving according to her own rhythm. Not necessarily screaming ahead. Not necessarily taking forever. Just... moving. Perfectly. At her own pace. And I think that's one of the most important things to recognize in a room like this. When you've got twelve different plants sharing one environment, you're going to see different speeds. Different structures. Different expressions. Different reactions. And that's exactly what makes the 8×8 Adventure so interesting. Candy Rain isn't late. She isn't early. She's Candy Rain. 🍬💚 And she's doing Candy Rain things. ──────────────────────── 👑 THE SOLO SURVIVOR HAS BECOME A CHARACTER ──────────────────────── I still think back to how this girl started her story. She was our solo survivor. The one that remained. And somehow... she has evolved into one of the characters I most enjoy following. 😂🍬 At first, the story was simply: "She's still here." Then: "She's growing." Then: "She's flowering." Then: "She's stacking." Then: "She's bulking." And now: "She's getting louder." 😂🔥 That's quite an evolution. She may have started as the survivor... but she's definitely not behaving like a background character anymore. ──────────────────────── 🌸 FLOWERS EVERYWHERE ──────────────────────── Look around the plant... flowers. Look again... more flowers. Move closer... even more flowers. 😂🌸 That's what I love about this stage. The plant has developed enough structure that the flowers now tell most of the story. You can see the framework. You can see the branches. You can see the foliage. But your eyes keep getting pulled toward those developing flowering structures. And Candy Rain has plenty of them. She's filling her space beautifully. Not necessarily in some dramatic, explosive way... but consistently. And consistency is beautiful. Week after week. Flower after flower. Stack after stack. ──────────────────────── 📸 THE PHOTOGRAPHS ARE TELLING THE STORY ──────────────────────── Looking at this week's photographs, I really like how clearly the plant's progression comes through. The wider photographs show the overall structure. The closer photographs reveal the individual flowers. And then you get those little details... the pistils. The developing resin. The flower texture. The different stages of development across the plant. It's almost like looking at a little map of where she's been and where she's going. And honestly... I could probably keep photographing her all day. 😂📸 Because every time you change your angle, another flower catches your eye. ──────────────────────── 💡 SAME ROOM. SAME PHOTONS. SAME CANDY RAIN. ──────────────────────── And of course... we have to come back to one of the biggest themes of the 8×8 Adventure. Same room. Same general environment. Same lighting philosophy. Same irrigation system. Same nutritional foundation. Same 12/12 schedule. Same grower. And yet... different plants. Different genetics. Different expressions. Candy Rain is receiving the same general lighting environment as everyone else. The two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures are still part of the room. We're keeping them around: 💡 ~59% power from the plug with approximately: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy and naturally varying depending on canopy height and position. The photons are the same opportunity. But Candy Rain decides what to do with them. And apparently... she wants to make flowers. Lots of flowers. 😂🍬🌸 ──────────────────────── ☀️ THE ARTIFICIAL SUN KEEPS DOING ITS JOB ──────────────────────── I really like what the expanded lighting setup has brought to this project. Not because we're trying to force the plants to do anything. But because we have more capability. We can create a broader lighting envelope. We can control the output. We can give the room the photons it needs without simply running everything flat out. And then... we observe. That's the interesting part. The light provides the energy. The plants interpret it. And Candy Rain? She's interpreting it beautifully. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's developing. She's getting louder. 🍬☀️🌸 ──────────────────────── 💚 THERE'S NOT MUCH FOR ME TO DO NOW ──────────────────────── And honestly... this is probably the biggest thing I can say about this week. There's not much for me to do. 😂 I'm looking. I'm observing. I'm checking. I'm supporting whatever needs support. I'm adjusting when something actually asks for an adjustment. And otherwise... I'm letting her be. Because she's doing beautifully. Why would I interfere with something that is already working? The plant has established her structure. The flowering sites are there. The flowers are developing. The stacking is happening. She's progressing. So my role becomes simpler. Observe. Respond. Support. And get out of the way. 🌱💚 ──────────────────────── 😂 THE GROWER'S JOB: EXIST ──────────────────────── There comes a point in every grow where the plant basically tells you: "Okay... I've got this." 😂 And Candy Rain is definitely approaching that conversation. She's doing her thing. She's asking for what she needs. And when she does... we respond. But otherwise? I'm just here. Existing. 😂 Watching her. Admiring her. Taking photographs. Writing about her. And occasionally saying: "Well... look at you." 🍬👀🌸 Sometimes growing is incredibly complicated. And sometimes... the best thing you can do is let the plant grow. ──────────────────────── 🌼 THE COLOURS ARE STARTING TO TELL US MORE ──────────────────────── The changing pistils are one of the details I'm particularly interested in watching now. Earlier, those warmer yellowish tones were already giving Candy Rain a unique character. Now we're beginning to see more change. It's subtle. It's gradual. And it's exactly the kind of thing I enjoy documenting. Because this isn't about one photograph. It's about the sequence. Week 10. Week 11. Week 12. And suddenly you can see that little shift. That's the magic of a diary. You capture something that seems tiny today... and a few weeks later, you realize it was part of a much larger transition. 🍬🌼💚 ──────────────────────── ❄️ AND YES... SHE'S STILL FROSTY ──────────────────────── The resin development continues as well. ❄️🍬 She's not finished showing us what she can do. The flowers continue carrying that beautiful frosty character. And combined with the changing pistils and all that green... she's developing a really lovely visual identity. Again... not necessarily the most dramatic plant in the room. Not necessarily the strangest. Not necessarily the biggest. She's simply... Candy Rain. And honestly? That's more than enough. ──────────────────────── 🍬 BEAUTIFUL WITHOUT TRYING TOO HARD ──────────────────────── Maybe that's what I like most about her. She doesn't look like she's trying. 😂 She just grows. She stacks. She develops. She changes. And somehow... she ends up beautiful. There are plants that look like they were designed for a magazine cover. And then there are plants where you keep watching them week after week and slowly realize: "Wow... I really like this girl." Candy Rain is that kind of plant for me. She's grown on me. Literally. 😂🍬🌿 ──────────────────────── 🔬 SAME ENVIRONMENT – DIFFERENT EXPRESSION ──────────────────────── Again, for anyone discovering this diary for the first time... the 8×8 Adventure is about exactly this. We're not creating twelve completely different worlds. We're not changing everything every week for every phenotype. We're giving these plants a shared environment... and watching what genetics do with that opportunity. And Candy Rain gives us another beautiful example. Same room. Same photons. Same general nutrition. Same environmental strategy. Different expression. That's the experiment. And that's why I never get tired of seeing another week unfold. Because even when nothing dramatic changes... the plants are still changing. Quietly. Gradually. Beautifully. ──────────────────────── ⚗️ NUTRITION – SAME ROOM, SAME FOUNDATION ──────────────────────── As with the rest of the room, the flowering nutrition remains at: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.3 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH adjusted as required Current solution values remain around: ⚗️ pH – ~6.02 ⚡ EC – ~2.14 mS/cm Again... nothing special just for Candy Rain. Same general room-wide strategy. Same nutritional foundation. And then... we observe what she does with it. She's doing beautifully. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ WEEK 12 – ROOM CONDITIONS ──────────────────────── The room continues broadly around: 🌡️ Day temperature: ~26.5°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~26°C 💧 RH: ~61% 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~25°C 💦 Nutrient solution: ~25°C ⚗️ pH: ~6.02 ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: ~693 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 💧 Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h Same room. Same environment. Same lighting upgrades. Same nutrition. Different week. And another beautiful chapter from Candy Rain. 🍬💚🌸 ──────────────────────── 🔥 SHE'S ENTERING THAT BEAUTIFUL "JUST WATCH" PHASE ──────────────────────── I think that's the best way to describe where we are now. Just watch. 😂 Watch the flowers. Watch the stacking. Watch the colour. Watch the pistils. Watch the resin. Watch the plant. And when she asks for something... we respond. Otherwise... let her do what she does. This is where patience becomes part of the grow. The plant doesn't need us to make something happen every day. Sometimes... she just needs time. And Candy Rain is using that time beautifully. ──────────────────────── 🔍 WHAT I'M WATCHING NOW ──────────────────────── So what am I looking for? Honestly... more of the same. 🌸 Continued stacking. 🍬 Continued bulking. 🌼 Further changes in the pistils. ❄️ Continued resin development. 🌿 Watching all that green evolve naturally. 👀 And simply seeing where her own rhythm takes her. I'm not trying to predict exactly what she's going to look like at the end. I'm not trying to force a timeline. I'm just enjoying the progression. Because right now... she looks happy. She looks beautiful. And she looks like she's enjoying herself. ──────────────────────── ✨ FINAL THOUGHTS – LET CANDY RAIN SHINE ──────────────────────── Week 12. Candy Rain Auto. Our solo survivor. Our glamorous survivor. Our increasingly loud survivor. 😂🍬🔥 She's stacking. She's bulking. She's getting louder. She's changing. Her pistils are beginning to shift colour. She's still carrying plenty of beautiful green. She's moving at her own rhythm. And she's becoming more impressive by the week. There's not much for me to do now. And honestly? I'm perfectly happy with that. I'll exist. 😂 I'll observe. I'll support whatever she needs. I'll make adjustments when they're actually necessary. And otherwise... I'll let her be. Because she's doing her thing. And she's doing it beautifully. 🍬🌸💚 This girl doesn't need me to write her story for her. She's writing it herself. One flower. One stack. One week at a time. So let's give her the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's enjoy the colours as they begin to change. Let's watch those flowers continue to build. And let's see how loud this beautiful girl can get. 😂🔥🍬 Candy Rain... keep doing your thing. Keep stacking. Keep bulking. Keep changing. Keep surprising me. And most importantly... keep being you. Because whatever you're doing... it's working beautifully. 🍬💚🌸✨ ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU ──────────────────────── As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share the experience with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Candy Rain genetics and for giving us this beautiful solo survivor to follow. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the room. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and giving us the opportunity to explore this expanded lighting setup. 💡☀️🌿 Thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into the deeper areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable behind the scenes. And, of course... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person who stops by to see what the girls are doing. It genuinely means a lot. 💚 And Candy Rain? You're getting louder. You're getting bigger. You're stacking. You're changing. You're becoming more beautiful every week. 🍬🔥🌸 You started this adventure as our solo survivor. Now? You're one of the girls that I genuinely look forward to seeing every time I walk into the room. And that's something special. So this week... the spotlight belongs to you. 🍬✨👑 Let's keep watching. Let's keep documenting. Let's keep enjoying the journey. And let's let this beautiful girl continue moving at her own rhythm. No rushing. No forcing. No unnecessary interference. Just observation... support... and appreciation. Because sometimes... the best thing a grower can do is simply stand back and say: "She's got this." 😂🍬🌿 And Candy Rain? I think she's got this. Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle... where the flowers keep stacking, the colours keep changing, the photons keep flying, and our solo survivor keeps getting louder and louder and louder. 🍬🌸🔥💚 Let her shine.

Flower day 17 - All the ladies are looking great, starting to see a lot of bud sights & the smell is definitely getting stronger everyday I open the tent! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!🌱✌️🏼 Flower day 19- Got a bigger dehumidifier because I was having problems on days I would water the humidity would go through the roof at night so to prevent mold I bought a bigger dehumidifier but now it is throwing off so much heat the tent is pushing 90 degrees F at some points throughout the day so I’m not exactly sure how to fix the issue! Will definitely not be running so many plants in the next run for the 5x5! Hopefully things get better!😅😅

I have successfully cultivated a substantial quantity of dense, heavy buds. The purple hue is visually appealing, and the aroma is exceptionally sweet.
