This was the most beautiful grow I have done to date. There were a few mistakes I made along the way, like not defoliating enough and some over topping but I still highly impressed with the results. Looking forward to growing this again.

Esta semana ha llovido mucho(desde lunes a jueves) mucha humedad mucha agua, tengo miedo que aparezcan hongos, asique solo la regue con tricodermas para intentar combatir esos futuros hongos. La próxima semana subiré fotos de las otras macetas también, ya que no hice tiempo para hacerlo hoy.

🌿 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. A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for making this incredible project possible, Plagron for providing outstanding nutrition, Future of Grow for the incredible Black Series lighting, Lumiflora for adding a new dimension with their under-canopy lighting system, AutoPot for keeping the root zone thriving, Mammoth Tents for providing the perfect home, TrolMaster for maintaining precise environmental control, Prima Klima for outstanding ventilation, and to everyone following this journey here on GrowDiaries. 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! 🌱💚

The #1 pheno has a smooth sweet ‘purple’ terpene profile with a hint of fuel while the #2 is more earthy and gassy. --- Anyways! --- Onwards to next week Ensign! [END OF WEEK 20]

Week 4 of flower 8/30/24 Defoliated a little for all the tops to get maximum light exposure. Some strange marking started to appear on some of the leaves. The problem was a very high salts buildup in the coco because I watered with almost no drainage for a couple of days. EC 3, in the drainage. PH was a little high but still at normal range. Watered with a diluted nutrient solution with H2O2 (2.5ml a gallon). Waited a couple of hours and watered with nutrients again same day without the H2O2 (usually I water once daily at the start of the 12 light cycle). EC got lower to 1.6 and on the following days it got lower even more to 1.3. The plant seems happy and there is damage only on some parts of the leaves/branches. (seems like the salt buildup was only in some areas of the roots because only specific ares of the plant got damaged.) I like to see the daily progress in mass and trichome production :) Noticed the plant mass increasing daily. The smell intensified a bit I grabbed the leaves I defoliated, rubbed the trichomes to release the oils and the smell was just incredible, It is not fully developed yet so I cannot put my finger on the most dominant terpenes, but I can surely tell the smell of tropical fruits mixed with sweet candy notes are something mega pleasant. Watering with nutrients daily (mama likes to drink a lot).

Buds are forming fast and given the node spacing I think they'll be nice and long.. We removed most the top fans and cleared the bottom 1/3 growth from all plants this week, light penetration is awesome , we're still at 75% power with the Solux 350 but this seems to be more than adequate for now (we're trying to keep power consumption low between 4 active tents to avoid anymore power issues).. The Solux 350 is surprisingly cool, i genuinely thought we would be fighting heat with driver inside but is as cool as all other tents in the room.. not too much else to report, its been a great week!..Thanks as always for dropping by and happy harvests folks!! ⚡Hortibloom/Solux 350⚡ Specifications ⚙️: Diodes: Samsung LM281 Pro / Osram DR (1,440 total)💡 Driver: Inventronics 350 watt🔌 PPF: 1015 μmol/s ☢️ PPE: 2.9 µmol/j 〰️〰️ Lifespan: 50k+ hrs ⌛ Weight: 14.3lbs lbs (6.5kg) Veg Coverage: 5 x 5 ft 🌱 Flowering Coverage: 4 x 4 ft 🌼 -Uses an aluminum heatsink (no fan), quiet while operating 👂⬇️ -IP65 waterproof ratings, tolerant to high humidity grow environments 💦 -May be daisy-chained via RJ14 and managed from a single controller 💡~💡~💡~💡~💡 🌎 https://hortibloom.com/products/solux-350-led-grow-light ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_

So far so good. This is week 2 or 3of flowering and no issues so far. The fan leave are starting to thin out but I guess that Normal in the flowering stage. The only question I have in this stage is what should my humidity but for the flower stage ? I heard any where from 60-40?

Still watering about a liter daily with just well water out of the drip system. I can't wait to see how they'll do this next week. Until then Happy Growing

A finales de semana empezaron a salir unas manchas en las hojas superiores, también han avanzado muy poco. Creo que es una carencia de potasio así que en el siguiente riego aumentaré las dosis del sbc.

Jan 13th ordered a Dehumidifier today should be here Monday need to get the humidity down for flower I can only get it down to 57% so Hopefully it will work One of the amnesia haze plants have some type of deficiency not sure have brown spots on leaves Got humidity some decent control but I’m sure amnesia haze 1 is dealing with PH issues the PH meter is cheap and I’m sure it’s been off a bit so I’m going to look for new one this week
