🌿 Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 7 (Flower Week 4) 🌱 The Room Is Coming Alive One of the biggest goals of this 8×8 Adventure has never been growing a single impressive plant. It's about building an entire ecosystem where every phenotype has the opportunity to express its own genetics while sharing the same environment, the same nutrition, and the same cultivation philosophy. Week after week, that vision becomes easier to see. Frosted Guava Pheno A continues doing exactly what she has done since the beginning—growing with balance, consistency, and confidence. While some plants steal the spotlight with explosive growth, she continues proving that steady development is often the foundation for exceptional harvests. Now entering her fourth week of flowering, she's no longer simply producing flowers. She's beginning to build real buds. And at the same time... The entire room is beginning to transform into a living sea of green. 🌸 Week 4 Flower – Everything Is Coming Together Standing at approximately 115 cm tall, Frosted Guava has stretched exactly as I hoped she would. Her vertical growth has started slowing naturally, allowing almost all of her energy to shift into flower production. Every branch now carries developing bud sites, and the individual flowers that appeared only a week ago are already beginning to stack together. The structure she built during vegetative growth is now paying dividends. Light reaches nearly every top, airflow remains excellent throughout the canopy, and each branch has enough room to develop without competing with its neighbours. She's becoming one of those plants that's simply enjoyable to watch every single day. 🍃 The Room Has Its Own Personality This week's report isn't only about one plant. It's also about the room itself. Walking into the tent now feels completely different compared to only a few weeks ago. The empty spaces that once separated individual plants are slowly disappearing as every canopy begins growing together into one continuous layer of green. The room feels alive. Every plant is stretching toward the light while simultaneously filling the space around her. Each phenotype still shows its own personality, but together they're becoming one complete ecosystem. That also means something else is approaching. Not because every individual plant necessarily needs it... But because the room does. Within the next week or so I'll likely perform the first significant defoliation of flowering. This isn't about removing leaves simply because I can. It's about maintaining airflow, allowing deeper light penetration, reducing excessive humidity pockets, and making sure every plant continues receiving the environment she deserves as the canopy becomes increasingly dense. Sometimes we don't prune for the plants. We prune for the room. 💡 Lighting Above... And Below The lighting system has also evolved alongside the plants. Above the canopy, the Future of Grow Black Series LED continues delivering approximately 1,000 PPFD across the tops of the flowering plants. For anyone new to growing, PPFD simply measures how many usable light particles reach the plant every second. In other words, it's one of the best ways to understand how much energy the plants receive for photosynthesis. Around 1,000 PPFD provides an excellent level of intensity for flowering under these conditions. Below the canopy, the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting continues adding another layer to the system. Rather than replacing the main light, these bars help illuminate lower flowering sites that would normally receive much less intensity once the canopy becomes dense. It's still early to judge the final results, but I'm genuinely excited to see how much they improve lower bud development as flowering progresses. Like everything else in this diary... The harvest will tell the real story. 🌬️ Airflow – Creating A Living Environment One aspect that's often overlooked is air movement. Good airflow isn't simply about pointing a fan at the plants. Inside this room, multiple oscillating fans create moving crosswinds that constantly change direction, preventing stagnant pockets of humid air from developing between the branches. At the same time, cooler air naturally enters from the lower section of the room while the extraction system continuously removes the warmer air accumulating near the ceiling. This constant vertical air exchange creates an environment where fresh CO₂ is continually introduced, humidity remains balanced, temperatures stay remarkably stable, and every leaf continues transpiring efficiently. Healthy airflow is one of the quiet heroes behind every successful flowering room. 🌡️ Environment Environmental conditions continue remaining beautifully consistent: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • Root zone temperature: 21°C • Solution temperature: 21°C • CO₂: Approximately 639 ppm This gives the room a VPD that's right where I want it for this stage of flowering. For growers unfamiliar with the term, VPD (Vapour Pressure Deficit) describes the relationship between temperature and humidity, helping determine how efficiently plants transpire and move water and nutrients through their tissues. Rather than chasing individual numbers, I prefer building an environment where temperature, humidity, airflow, irrigation, and lighting all work together as one complete system. Another question I often receive concerns CO₂. The reading of roughly 639 ppm isn't coming from bottled supplementation. It's simply the natural level inside my home, helped by continuously exchanging fresh household air through the grow room. During the evenings, with the family inside and normal household activity taking place, those natural CO₂ levels remain more than adequate for this style of cultivation. Sometimes simple really does work. 💧 Nutrition The feeding program remains unchanged this week, allowing the plants to continue flowering without unnecessary adjustments. Current feeding: • Terra Bloom • Pure Zym • Sugar Royal • Power Buds • Green Sensation Maintaining consistency often produces better results than constantly chasing new recipes. The plants certainly seem to agree. 👀 Looking Ahead Over the coming week I expect flower production to accelerate noticeably. The stretch should finish completely, bud sites will begin joining together, resin production should become increasingly visible, and Frosted Guava will start investing nearly all of her energy into building flower density rather than producing new height. The canopy itself will likely become full enough to justify the first flowering defoliation, improving airflow and ensuring every flowering site continues receiving excellent light throughout the room. It's one of my favourite moments of the grow. Everything starts feeling like a real flowering garden. 🙏 Final Thoughts Frosted Guava continues reminding me that consistency often beats drama. She hasn't demanded constant attention or complicated corrections. Instead, she's simply responded to stable conditions, balanced nutrition, quality genetics, and a healthy environment by doing exactly what nature designed her to do. Watching this room slowly evolve into a complete flowering ecosystem has been just as rewarding as watching any individual plant grow. Every week the pieces fit together a little more.

Your encouragement, comments, and shared passion for growing continue making this 8×8 Adventure an absolute pleasure to document. Until next week... Growers love and happy growing! 🌱💚

Start of week 7, for the Super Lemon Haze, I'm repeating the week 6 feed cycle as she's going for at least one extra week 9, compared to only 8 weeks for the blueberries, before flushing. Last week was good, but the Super Lemon Haze continues to be a very hungry girl. She is very sticky and has a light lemon smell. The two blueberry plants continue to pack on weight and size, they have a very pungent smell and are starting to get sticky like the SLH.

Lets gooo new strain’s dropped!

my friends growers, arrived at the 5 week of flowering, everything goes well. end 5 week blooming

It's been

Flowering day 7 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey guys :-) The flowering started last week because otherwise the space in the small tent would end up being too narrow :-) Cuttings were taken from each phenotype beforehand. To change the flower, I rinsed it very lightly with clean fruits. With the next watering she gets a mix of grow liquid and bloom liquid before she only gets bloom. The heating mat works perfectly in the small tent and the parameters are all in the optimal range 🙏🏻👍. Now we hope that everything stays that way and that the cold days will slowly pass :-) . Everything was cleaned and checked. have fun and stay healthy 🙏🏻 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this strain at : Clearwater Seeds Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

last week

¡Hola! Esta fue la 8va semana de floración. La planta formo de manera rápida muchos mas tricomas de los que tenia la semana pasada. De hecho, que haya tenido tantos pistilos y pocos tricomas me estaba preocupando, pero estos se desarrollaron muy rápido esta semana. Como ya nos estamos acercando al corte, estoy regando solamente con agua, mas allá de que con cultivos 100% orgánicos no sea necesario, me gusta bajarle un poco la carga al suelo para mejorar mas aun los sabores que nos otorga lo orgánico. Las fotos corresponden al ultimo día de la semana, el sábado 03/04/2021. No estuve muy inspirada, así que las fotos son aburridas. Hay fotos que la planta esta en otro lugar, ya que la movi abajo de un techo porque hay pronostico de lluvia para esos días, y es importante en estas semanas criticas que no estén bajo una tormenta. Esto ha sido todo. Cualquier sugerencia es bienvenida. Saludos!!

Buds still quite small, but their smell is quite powerful. Lower leaves are yellowing.

Lookin good, got a new light this week, and some supplemental lighting since the plants on the outside haven't been growing as much as the middle one.

Ok so I'm going too only feed pH water from here on out too force the plants too use up all that's in the soil , I am hoping I can carry them on now for the next 2 weeks like this before they are ripe ,

Amazing week for my monsters 😁 was so good for them, I hope to continue like this and we got to have an amazing end 💚 they are now on very early stage of flowering because I flipped the middle of 6th week to 12/12.

So far so good, they are just little and coming up well for now.. love my kosher nutrients but I'm going to be switching to future harvest developments dosaline and give that a whirl

Crystal meth esta asi... Creo que puede ser pulgon, pero a las demás plantas estan bien, esta en coco en 15L y riego 500ml cada 48h aprox, puede que se me hayan podrido las raizes por poca/mucha humedad? El indoor suele estar por 30°c y 50/60 %rh , ahora esta en 24° Finalmente ha muerto Crystal meth... Nose si volvere a probarla, desde pequeña dio problemas y era demasiado espigada para mis gustos y recursos.. Una de las 4 Blackberrys de fastbuds se ve enorme y esta empezamdo a engordar creo, hojas púrpuras, creo que será la mas productora, la tengo em un armario aparte ella sola con olantas mas bajas con una marshydro ts600 que le penetra perfectamente en todas las ramas

Logging in a little late this week but these two girls are going SO well right now. Some of the most healthy genetics I've ever dealt with and they just keep stretching. I guarantee these will yield quite a bit.

we pass 6 weeks of flowers. buds are getting fulled and the smell is so so beautiful. Here on pics is day 36 of flowering. Breeder says. flowering time is 6-7 weeks, let see in 2 weeks On feeding menu is again Iguana Juice Bloom, I spend all Mother earth. it is awesome nutrients. will buy it again.

She's doing well this week. Pushed out a few new leaves.

great variety. Good genetic. easy to handle
