This they popped after 2 days of being in the soil. They’re stretching but not too much. I have a fan blowing against the wall in my 2x2 grow tent. I have the phlox on 2x4 grow light on the lowest level 18” above the plant with an avg temp of 75 & RH of 47%.

This week has been a difficult one, the cold has come and it's been a struggle to keep the temperature up, yet the girls are pushing on. Smelling strong and lovely 😍 covered in sticky resin. 😋

Right now , the challenge is the humidity To combat against it., open the other tent

Tag 36: Leicht entlaubt.

2026 April 16 - Day 21 Pre-flowers started showing a few days ago with pistil hairs at the nodes. She's a little wind burnt maybe, or this is just how she's supposed to look. I'm leaning on the former. Otherwise she's doing fine and should be in full stretch by next week.

Thick luh mas. Some the White wedding phenos all outperformed my custom bred seeds. I’ll be sticking to a legitimate breedeer drom here forward Most plants have all white hairs 3 plants are crazy dense and beautiful Other plants are showing why a pheni hunt is impor

🌿 Woche 14 – Week 14 Gorilla Zkittlez (Fast Buds) – Outdoor Summer 🌡️ Wetter: Regen-Overkill mit ein paar Sonnenblitzen 🌦️. Und natürlich immer dann Sonne, wenn ich gerade nicht in den Garten schaue . 📏 Wachstum: Höhe bleibt gleich, aber die Buds fangen an, sich schön zu strecken. 💡 Licht & Energie: Jede Sekunde Sonne wird sofort aufgesaugt – Hardcore-Solarpanel-Modus 😎☀️. 🌿 Blattgesundheit: Tiefgrün, null Anzeichen von Stress. 💧 Wasser & Nährstoffe: Regen übernimmt fast die ganze Arbeit, nicht mal Dünger dazu. 100% Mutter Natur. 🔄 Entwicklung: Blüten verdichten sich weiter, sehen schon richtig kuschelig aus – fast zu schade zum Ernten . ✅ Fazit: Wetter nervt zwar, aber die Dame lässt sich nicht beeindrucken. Läuft stabil! 💪🍃 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🌡️ Weather: Rain, rain, and more rain 🌧️. Sun only shows up when I’m not watching . 📏 Growth: Height is stable, but the buds are slowly stacking up. 💡 Light & Energy: Running in “solar panel mode” – every sunray is fully absorbed 😎☀️. 🌿 Leaf Health: Deep green, zero stress. 💧 Water & Nutrients: Rain handles most of the watering, and the nutrients. 🔄 Development: Flowers getting denser, looking fluffy and beautiful – almost too nice to cut . ✅ Overall: Weather’s a pain, but she’s not bothered at all. Solid progress! 💪🍃

I'm 4 days into flower. Topped all the plants nice and even. Then removed all bud sites below the top 4 on each branch. Leaving fan leaves intact. I allowed them to recover for 2 days. Then flipped the lights. Saskatoon Berry is stacking nodes very closely. I'm thinking these will be nice big colas.

Ending up trans set 1 got a lil more space in GH...topped up the other also did some defoliation(everything) and LST HST( set 1&2)

Flowering day 65 since clock change to 12/12 Hey guys :-) . It's so far, the lady is ripe and will be cut at the bottom end in the coming days and hung upside down in the drying tent :-) . Next week there will be an extra update on how they are hanging. Watering would be done twice this week with 1 l each (nutrients see table above) Otherwise it was checked and everything was cleaned.

Another week has flown by! The girls are doing great, cruise control this week as I have just been monitoring RH and temps. Trying to keep them as low as possible, I’ve been getting as low as 74 during the day and 68 at night. I finally took a look a look at the trichomes with my jewellers loop, lots of cloudy, and a few amber around the leaves and top colas, but still lot’s of clear trichomes. I’ve ordered myself a wireless/usb digital microscope to assist with the process, and looks like it will be here just in time to determine harvest day. 😎🎄 I started by eliminating the nutrients at the beginning of the week. I typically allow for 3-4 pure water feeds before I harvest, and at the rate they have been drinking, this should be enough to get through the 7-12 days they have before harvest. I don’t flush, but rather “rinse” with normal water amounts, allowing the plant to use up the remaining nutrients in the soil. This also allows me to recover most of the soil from my grows and reuse ♻️ with other soil mix. There has been great debate and a great deal of bro science out there for many years, but the recent studies suggest there is no difference in end result when it comes to flushing or using nutrients right until the end, if a proper dry and cure is performed. What do you think? What do you prefer to do? Thanks for reading this far, leave me a comment with your preferred method 👊🇨🇦❤️

8/11 day 21 girls looking real good at 18" to 20" tall, in grow box with lights on at night, out in the sun during daytime hours

Sie hat das schlechte Wetter überlebt und macht sich immer besser bei den höheren Temperaturen. Eine starke Genetik.

Timelapse Days 21-34: Memory card filled up and I lost days 35 and part of 36. Day 36: No photograph. No longer centered under the light. I need more lighting. Day 37: plant taking to the training well. Almost time for another tent peg. Day 38: Still growing. Day 39: Worried this is mold. Added a gallon of water with nutrients increasing the nutrients to mid-vegetation. Overall I think the plant looks pretty healthy. Day 40: Turned the carbon filter on to promote air exchange. Day 41: Continued training. Day 41: Rushing the exhaust fan has reduced the humidity. Going to have to keep an eye on that.

Casey's Rollex OG is doing good. She was switched to flowering times 4 days ago. She had a solution change 2 days ago. She is growing really well. Just waiting on the stretching and flowering now. Thank you Spider Farmer, and DutchFem Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

🍬 Candy Rain Auto by Zamnesia | Week 11 ✨ The Glamorous Survivor Is Bulking Up Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 Well... Our other solo survivor is still doing exactly what she has been doing from the beginning. Her own thing. 😂🍬 And honestly? I'm really starting to love the way this girl is developing. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's putting flowers absolutely everywhere. She's developing a beautiful structure. She's maintaining that gorgeous colour. And those pistils... Oh, those pistils. 😍 They're not the bright, almost pure white we're seeing on some of the other girls. They're starting to carry a warmer, slightly yellowish tone. And against that beautiful green foliage and developing flowers? It looks absolutely gorgeous. She's becoming one of those plants where you don't need anything dramatic to happen. You just walk in... look at her... and smile. Because she's doing beautifully. 🍬💚✨ ──────────────────────── ✨ THE SOLO SURVIVOR KEEPS SHINING ──────────────────────── I think by now we've officially moved past the "survivor" part of the story. 😂 She survived. She established herself. She grew. She flowered. And now? She's building. Big time. Candy Rain continues to develop at her own rhythm, and what I'm really enjoying this week is how much more substantial the flowering structure is becoming. She's not simply maintaining flowers anymore. She's building them. Stacking them. Bulking them. And filling her plant with them. This girl has flowers everywhere. 🌸🌸🌸 And somehow she still maintains that elegant, calm personality we've come to know. She's not screaming for attention. She's just quietly becoming more and more impressive. And honestly... that's a beautiful way to grow. ──────────────────────── 🌸 SHE'S STACKING ──────────────────────── This is probably the biggest thing catching my attention this week. The stacking. The flowers are building on top of the structure we've been watching develop over the previous weeks. Individual flowering sites are becoming increasingly substantial. The bud structures are becoming more defined. And when you look across the plant, you start seeing flowers everywhere you look. This is the point where all those earlier weeks of development start paying off visually. The framework was built. The flowers appeared. The flowers developed. And now they're beginning to bulk. It's really satisfying to watch. Because this isn't one impressive cola doing all the work. It's the whole plant participating. Flower after flower. Branch after branch. Stack after stack. 🍬🌸🔥 ──────────────────────── 💚 BUDS EVERYWHERE ──────────────────────── One of the things I really like about Candy Rain is how evenly she seems to be filling her space. Look around her... there are flowers everywhere. And that's what makes her so enjoyable to photograph. You can start with the whole plant. Then you find one branch. Then another. Then another flower. And suddenly you're wondering how you didn't notice all those flowers before. 😂📸 She's becoming increasingly full. The individual flowers are gaining presence. The structure is becoming more substantial. And the overall plant is starting to look like one beautiful flowering mass rather than simply a plant that happens to have flowers on it. She's getting there. And she's getting there beautifully. ──────────────────────── 🌼 THOSE PISTILS... ──────────────────────── Now let's talk about something I particularly noticed this week. The pistils. 😍 They're beautiful. But they're not the same bright white we're seeing on some of the other girls. Candy Rain is giving us a slightly warmer expression. A little more yellowish. A little more golden. And against the green foliage? It's stunning. There's something about that warmer tone that gives the flowers a completely different character. It's subtle. It's not screaming for attention. But once you notice it... you keep noticing it. And that's exactly what I love about phenotype hunting. Sometimes the differences aren't enormous. Sometimes they're little details. A slightly different colour. A slightly different structure. A different rhythm. A different way of stacking. And those little differences become part of the identity of the plant. Candy Rain has her own signature. 🍬🌼💚 ──────────────────────── ❄️ THE FROST IS STILL THERE ──────────────────────── And of course... we can't forget the resin. 😂❄️ The flowers continue developing that beautiful frosty character. The closer you look, the more detail appears. Trichomes. Pistils. Flower structure. Texture. All those little things happening simultaneously. And this is exactly where photography becomes dangerous again. 😂📸 You take one photograph. Then you see something interesting. So you move closer. Then you see even more. And before you know it, you've been staring at one flower for ten minutes. But that's the beauty of this stage. The plants are giving us more and more detail to discover. And Candy Rain has plenty. ──────────────────────── 🌿 BEAUTIFUL COLOUR, BEAUTIFUL CONTRAST ──────────────────────── Another thing I continue to really like about this girl is the colour. Those deep greens. The flowers developing against them. The warmer pistils. The frost developing across the flower surfaces. Everything is coming together beautifully. She's got that rich, almost classic flowering-plant appearance. Nothing feels out of place. Nothing is screaming for attention. It's simply... balanced. And sometimes balance is what makes a plant beautiful. Candy Rain doesn't need to be the strangest plant in the room. She doesn't need to be the tallest. She doesn't need to have the most unusual structure. She simply needs to be herself. And she's doing that extremely well. ──────────────────────── SAME ROOM. SAME WORLD. DIFFERENT STORY. ──────────────────────── And once again, we come back to the heart of the 8×8 Adventure. For anyone discovering this diary now: We're growing twelve different plants together under the same general ecosystem. Same room. Same lighting philosophy. Same 12/12 schedule. Same environmental strategy. Same general nutritional program. Same grower. Same attention. And yet... look at how differently they express themselves. Some stretch. Some stay compact. Some race ahead. Some take their time. Some become extremely frosty. Some build enormous structures. Some have unusual colours. And Candy Rain? She has become this beautiful, balanced, flower-loaded survivor who is now quietly bulking up all over the place. That's what makes this experiment so enjoyable. The environment gives them the opportunity. Genetics decide what they do with it. 🍬💚 ──────────────────────── 💡 MORE PHOTONS, SAME GIRL ──────────────────────── The lighting environment has also received its upgrade. We've added two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures to the room. When we first brought the extra lighting in, the available PPFD was higher than we wanted for our target. So rather than simply throwing everything at the plants... we reduced the output. We're now around: 💡 ~59% power from the plug with approximately: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy and naturally less depending on plant height and position. That's one of the things I really like about having more lighting capability. We don't have to run everything at maximum. We can have the photons available... and decide how many we actually want to use. And Candy Rain? She's receiving the same upgraded environment as everybody else. Same photons. Same room. Same conditions. And she's responding in her own way. 💡🌿🍬 ──────────────────────── ☀️ THE ARTIFICIAL SUN KEEPS SHINING ──────────────────────── There is something really fascinating about watching twelve plants receive essentially the same artificial sun... and then seeing twelve different interpretations of it. We give them photons. They decide what to do with them. 😂 Candy Rain is clearly putting hers to work. She's building flowers. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's maintaining beautiful foliage. And she's continuing to develop without asking us to reinvent the entire grow around her. That's exactly the kind of relationship I like with a plant. Provide. Observe. Adjust when necessary. And let the plant do the rest. 🌱☀️💚 ──────────────────────── ⚗️ NUTRITION – A LITTLE MORE FUEL ──────────────────────── The nutrition has also been adjusted together with the rest of the room. Terra Bloom has moved from: 🌱 2.2 ml/L → 2.3 ml/L while the rest of the flowering program remains: 🌱 Terra Bloom – 2.3 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH adjustment as required That small increase has brought the solution strength up slightly. Current readings are around: ⚗️ pH – ~6.02 ⚡ EC – ~2.14 mS/cm And Candy Rain is responding beautifully. Again... nothing special just for her. No secret recipe. No different room. No special treatment. Same nutritional strategy as the rest of the girls. And she's taking it... and building. 🍬🌸 ──────────────────────── 🌡️ WEEK 11 – CURRENT CONDITIONS ──────────────────────── The room is currently sitting around: 🌸 Flowering: Week 11 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 🌡️ Day temperature: ~26.5°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~26°C 💧 Relative humidity: ~61% ⚗️ pH: ~6.02 ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm 💦 Nutrient solution temperature: ~25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~25°C 💨 CO₂: ~693 ppm ? Pot size: 15 L 💧 Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h Same room. Same environment. Same upgraded lighting. Same nutritional adjustment. Same overall strategy. And Candy Rain is continuing to show us her own interpretation. 🍬💚 ──────────────────────── 🌸 SHE'S BULKING NOW ──────────────────────── This is the part I'm really enjoying. We're moving beyond: "She's flowering." We're now seeing: "She's building flowers." And that's a different feeling. The flowers are gaining volume. The structures are becoming more substantial. The stacking is becoming more obvious. And there are so many of them. This is where the plant starts becoming visually rewarding in a completely different way. Earlier, we were watching for flower formation. Now we're watching what those flowers become. And Candy Rain is giving us plenty to watch. 🌸🔥 ──────────────────────── 🍬 THE GLAMOROUS SURVIVOR HAS EVOLVED ──────────────────────── Maybe "Glamorous Survivor" isn't quite enough anymore. 😂 Because now she's becoming: ✨ The Glamorous Survivor Who Came to Bulk. 😂🍬🌸 She survived. She established herself. She became beautiful. She entered flowering. She developed her structure. She stacked. And now... she's bulking. There's something very satisfying about seeing that progression. Especially because we never really knew what this girl was going to become when the adventure started. She was simply the one that remained. And now she's one of the plants I genuinely look forward to checking every week. That's a pretty good evolution. ──────────────────────── 📸 THE CAMERA IS GOING TO HAVE FUN ──────────────────────── With the way the flowers are developing now, I already know the camera is going to have plenty of work. Wide shots will show the overall structure. Closer shots will show the stacking. And macro? 😂 Macro is going to become dangerous again. Because those warmer pistils. Those developing trichomes. Those flower structures. That frost. The textures. All of it deserves a closer look. Candy Rain is becoming one of those plants where every step closer reveals something else. And I love that. ──────────────────────── 💚 NO NEED TO FORCE HER ──────────────────────── One thing hasn't changed. I'm still not trying to make her into something she's not. She's healthy. She's growing. She's flowering. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's maintaining beautiful colour. She's developing exactly as we'd like to see. So... why interfere unnecessarily? At this stage, sometimes the best thing a grower can do is simply keep the environment stable and let the plant finish expressing itself. We've already done the work needed to establish the structure. Now? Let her shine. Let her build. Let her show us what she's capable of. 🍬💚✨ ──────────────────────── 👑 SHE DOESN'T NEED THE CROWN ──────────────────────── And that's another thing I love about Candy Rain. She's not trying to win anything. She doesn't seem interested in competing with the other girls. She's just doing her own thing. Some of the girls are fighting for attention. Some are absolutely screaming: "LOOK AT ME!" 😂 Candy Rain? She's standing there with her beautiful flowers and warmer pistils like: "I'm good." 😂🍬 And honestly... that's enough. She doesn't need the crown. She just needs her spotlight. And this week... she's getting it. ──────────────────────── 🔍 WHAT AM I WATCHING NOW? ──────────────────────── At this point, my attention is going toward: 🌸 How much more will the flowers bulk? 🌿 How much more will the stacking develop? ❄️ How much more resin will appear? 🌼 How will those warmer pistil colours evolve? 💚 How will the foliage continue to look as the plant matures? And most importantly... how far will this beautiful survivor take her story? We're still not finished. There are still chapters left. So I'm simply watching. And enjoying. 🍬💚 ──────────────────────── ✨ LET HER SHINE ──────────────────────── So... Week 11. Candy Rain Auto. Our other solo survivor. And she's looking fantastic. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's developing flowers everywhere. She's building beautiful structure. She's becoming increasingly frosty. She's maintaining those gorgeous deep greens. And those slightly warmer, yellowish pistils are giving her a character all of her own. She's not trying to be another plant. She's not trying to match another phenotype. She's simply being Candy Rain. And honestly? I love it. 🍬💚✨ So let's make her shine. Let's give this girl the spotlight. Let's appreciate what she's building. And let's see how much more she has left to show us. ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU ──────────────────────── Another week. Another chapter. And another reminder that sometimes the most unexpected plants become some of the most enjoyable ones to follow. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a place to document these journeys, share experiences and learn together. Thank you to Zamnesia for the genetics behind our beautiful Candy Rain survivor. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting the garden. Thank you to Future of Grow for providing the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and helping us expand the lighting capability of the room. 💡💚 Thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into the deeper parts of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable behind the scenes. And, of course... thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person who stops by to see what the girls are doing this week. It genuinely means a lot. And Candy Rain? Our solo survivor is still here. Still beautiful. Still growing. Still stacking. Still bulking. Still shining. And now... looking more and more like a girl who has decided she's going to make every flower count. 🍬🌸✨ She started this adventure simply because she was the one who remained. Now she's become one of the girls I genuinely enjoy watching every single week. The Glamorous Survivor. The Solo Survivor. The Flower-Loaded Survivor. And this week... the Bulking Survivor. 😂🍬💚 Let's keep watching. Let's keep documenting. Let's keep photographing. And let's let this beautiful girl continue doing what she does best. Growing in her own rhythm. Building in her own way. And shining without ever needing to ask for the spotlight. Because this week... the spotlight belongs to Candy Rain. 🍬✨💚👑 Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! 🌱💚🍬

Day 43 this orange is running absolutely faster than the last I did. Every day flowers are getting bigggers and resin is awful to be at 42 days. I’m really loving aptus product, but I really can’t ell what’s is pushing her so fast. Behind, in the video, you can see another auto is a strawberry banana and germinated with just 24 h difference but is starting just now to get into flowering, same soil ‘, same feeding.. incredible Let’s see what s happen
