Took off single and double blades leaves. Reveg growth continues to look less and less like flowering growth. Repotted the smaller clone into a 5 gallon smart pot with a mix of happy frog soil, perlite and peat moss. Feeding plants once a week now. This plant is super bushy since it came off a flowering plant. I will be taking clones off this plant.

Day 22: And she bounces right back from the LST! These OG Kush as I keep saying are resilient girls! ๐Ÿ’ช Day 23: They are really enjoying their environment! Gave her a drink yesterday around 5pm and will wait till in the morning to feed. She feels bone dry but think it will do good to wait. Day 24: Busy, no updates. Day 25: These girls received their last LST today. I am starting to see pistils, so I will let her be and see what she can do!! Also, upped the dosage of my MSU nutes to half strength, with doing so I also upped the CalMag 1ml a gal to 2ml a gal. As soon as my gallon is finished off I will up it to 75% strength. Day 26: Beautiful girl here! Healthy and strong. Can't wait! Day 27: No new updates. Day 28: She dry's out quick! Having to water 3 times a day currently. Will up the nutes as soon as this gallon runs out.

๐Ÿ’Ž 8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Week 13 Black Diamond Auto by Zamnesia โ€“ Pheno A Shining Bright Like a Diamondโ€ฆ Because Apparently One Main Cola Wasn't Enough ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ‘‘โœจ๐ŸŒธ Welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And this week... Well... She's not getting any more humble. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž Quite the opposite. She's becoming more and more of exactly what her name suggests. BLACK DIAMOND. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ‘‘โœจ And for some reason, I have a song looping in my head: "Shining bright like a diamond..." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ I KNOW there's a song. And if there wasn't one before... there definitely should be. Because this girl? She's shining like one. ๐Ÿ’Žโœจ She's beautiful. She's dense. She's frosty. She's loaded with flowers. She's got that beautiful main cola. She's got beautiful buds everywhere. And every time I look at her, I find myself smiling. She's one of those plants that doesn't need an introduction anymore. You walk into the room... you see her... and you know. "Yep. That's Black Diamond." ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ‘‘ She's my precious little diamond coming out of the soil. And now we're watching that diamond continue to develop into something absolutely beautiful. One day she'll be harvested. One day she'll be dried. One day she'll be cured. And eventually... well... that beautiful diamond will become something we can actually enjoy. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ But we're not there yet. She's still building. She's still shining. She's still showing us what she can do. So let's give this girl the spotlight she deserves. Because honestly... she's fucking stunning. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’Ž WEEK 13 โ€“ SHINING BRIGHT LIKE A DIAMOND Last week we were already talking about this girl becoming ridiculous. Well... Week 13 hasn't exactly brought her back down to earth. ๐Ÿ˜‚ She's still doing it. Still growing. Still building. Still stacking. Still getting denser. Still getting frostier. Still filling those branches with beautiful flowers. And that main cola? Yeah... She's still there. Still demanding attention. Still standing proudly in the middle of everything. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒธ But the funny thing is... the main cola isn't even the whole story anymore. Because you look at the main cola... and then you look around... and suddenly there are beautiful flowers everywhere. Everywhere. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒธ At this point, I don't even know if "side cola" is the correct terminology anymore. Maybe we should call them: "Other impressive colas." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Because this girl simply doesn't seem interested in having small supporting actors. Everybody gets a role. Everybody gets flowers. Everybody gets frost. Everybody gets their moment. And somehow... she still manages to make that main cola the star of the show. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ‘‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒŸ SHE REALLY IS SHINING There's something about this girl that photographs don't completely explain. Yes... the photographs show the flowers. They show the density. They show the frost. They show the structure. But when you actually stand in front of her... there's something else. She has presence. She catches your eye. You look at one flower... then another... then another... and suddenly you're standing there smiling like an idiot. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ And that's exactly what happened to me. I walk into the room. I look at her. And there it is again. That damn song in my head. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿ’Ž "Shining bright like a diamond..." Well... yes. Exactly. She is. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ THE MAIN COLA DESERVES ITS OWN SPOTLIGHT Let's not forget about the star of the show. Her main cola. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ‘‘ She's beautiful. She's substantial. She's dense. She's getting more impressive as the weeks go by. And the best part is that she's surrounded by so many other beautiful flowering structures that the whole plant feels like one giant collection of flowers. This is no longer: "Look at the main cola." It's: "Look at the main cola." "Now look over there." "And there." "And there." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ It's like the plant is constantly saying: "You missed one." ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ And I keep finding more. That's what makes her so impressive. The main cola gets the crown... but the rest of the plant is absolutely not sitting quietly in the background. They're all contributing. They're all developing. They're all becoming dense. They're all getting that beautiful frosty appearance. And together? They make one hell of a plant. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’Ž DENSE, FROSTY & FULL OF PERSONALITY The density continues to be one of my favourite things about this girl. She's not just producing a lot of flowers. She's producing substantial flowers. Dense. Compact. Full. And increasingly covered in that beautiful resinous sparkle. โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ’Žโ„๏ธ The closer you get... the more you see. From a distance: "Beautiful plant." Closer: "Beautiful flowers." Closer still: "Ohhhhh..." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฌ๐Ÿ’Ž That's where the frost starts talking. And she's got plenty to say. She's absolutely shining. The flowers catch the light. The resin catches the light. The whole plant seems to sparkle from different angles. And that's where the Black Diamond name becomes almost too appropriate. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ‘‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ MY PRECIOUS DIAMOND I think I've officially become emotionally attached to this girl. ๐Ÿ˜‚ She's mine. My precious diamond. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ‘‘ Obviously, she belongs to Zamnesia genetically... but you know what I mean. After following a plant for thirteen weeks... watching her grow from the beginning... watching her structure develop... watching the flowers appear... watching the frost arrive... watching the colas become bigger and denser... you develop a relationship with the plant. You know her. You recognize her. And you start looking at her and thinking: "Look at you." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฟ That's where I am with Black Diamond Pheno A. She's not just another plant in the 8ร—8 anymore. She's one of the personalities. One of the characters. One of the girls I walk past and stop to look at. And right now? She's looking absolutely beautiful. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ FROM SOIL TO DIAMOND And here's where my brain went this week. She's my little diamond coming out of the soil. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฑ But diamonds don't just come out of the ground looking like a beautiful ring. There's a process. They get cut. They get polished. They get shaped. They become something beautiful. And that's the feeling I get when looking at this girl now. She's not finished. She's still in the soil. She's still developing. She's still becoming. But you can already see the potential. You can see the structure. You can see the density. You can see the frost. You can see the beauty. And eventually... after the rest of her journey... she'll become something completely different. Something we can appreciate in another way. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒธ But for now? I'm perfectly happy admiring her exactly where she is. Still growing. Still shining. Still becoming. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ SAME ROOM โ€“ HER OWN MASTERPIECE And once again... let's remember the foundation of this entire adventure. Same 8ร—8. Same general environment. Same 12/12 schedule. Same irrigation system. Same nutritional foundation. Same lighting philosophy. Same expanded lighting setup. And yet... look at what Black Diamond Pheno A has decided to become. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฟ This is the part of the project that never gets boring. The room gives everybody the same general stage. But genetics write the individual story. The same photons arrive. Different plants interpret them differently. Some stretch. Some stay compact. Some build enormous individual flowers. Some build lots of flowers. Some are slow. Some are fast. And this girl? She's apparently decided: "I'll take those photons... and I'll turn them into diamonds." ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ’Ž Fair enough, girl. I'm listening. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ˜€๏ธ MORE PHOTONS โ€“ MORE CAPABILITY The expanded Future of Grow lighting setup remains one of the big changes in this room. Those two additional Black Series 600W fixtures have given us considerably more lighting capability. But again... the point isn't simply to blast everything at maximum. We're controlling the output. Approximately: ๐Ÿ’ก ~59% power from the plug With around: โ˜€๏ธ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with intensity naturally varying according to plant height and position. And Black Diamond is clearly making use of that environment. She's building. She's stacking. She's becoming denser. She's developing those beautiful flowers. And she's shining. A huge thank you once again to Future of Grow for supplying those additional fixtures and allowing us to explore what this expanded setup could do inside the 8ร—8. More capability. More control. More photons. And twelve different responses. โ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’Ž โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ THIS GIRL IS A PHOTOGRAPHER'S DREAM I think I've reached the point where photographing her is almost unfair. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ Where do you start? The main cola? Yes. The side branches? Absolutely. The individual flowers? Of course. The frost? Definitely. The whole plant? 100%. And then you realize you've taken another ridiculous number of photographs because every angle looks different. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Wide shot: "Wow." Closer: "Wow." Macro: "OH." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ”ฌ That's what I love about her. She has layers. The whole plant tells one story. The individual colas tell another. And the macro photographs tell another completely different one. That's exactly what I want from these diaries. Not just a weekly picture... but a weekly record of how the plant is changing. And this week? She's giving us plenty to document. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ FLOWERS EVERYWHERE This is probably the simplest way I can describe her right now. Flowers. Everywhere. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ Upper canopy? Flowers. Main cola? Flowers. Side branches? Flowers. Lower structures? Flowers. And then you move your eyes somewhere else... more flowers. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž She's filling her architecture beautifully. And that's why the overall plant has become so impressive. It's not dependent on one single giant flower. It's the combination of everything. The main cola. The secondary structures. The side branches. The density. The frost. The way everything is coming together. That's what makes Black Diamond Pheno A special to me. She's not just producing one impressive moment. She's creating an entire plant full of them. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ช STRONG ENOUGH TO CARRY HER OWN CROWN And just like last week... I continue to love the strength of this plant. She's heavy. There's no question about that. ๐Ÿ˜‚ But she's also strong. She's carrying all those flowers with a structure that looks remarkably confident. She's not constantly asking for help. She's simply standing there... looking beautiful... while carrying what she's built. And I really like that. Because the plant isn't only beautiful. She's substantial. She's got structure. She's got strength. She's got flowers. She's got frost. She's got personality. She's got the whole package. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ That's a phenotype I enjoy following. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘€ THE GROWER'S JOB: WATCH And once again... I'm mostly watching. ๐Ÿ˜‚ That's becoming the theme of these later weeks. The plant has already done most of the structural work. Now she's building. So I observe. I photograph. I check. I monitor. I appreciate. And if something needs attention... then we deal with it. Otherwise? Let her shine. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’Ž I don't need to constantly touch a beautiful plant just because I can. Sometimes the best thing we can do is simply give the plant the environment... and let the plant show us what she's capable of. And Black Diamond is showing us plenty. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โš—๏ธ SAME NUTRITION โ€“ SAME FOUNDATION The nutritional programme remains consistent with the room's current flowering approach. ๐ŸŒฑ Plagron Terra Bloom โ€“ 2.3 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Power Buds โ€“ 1 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Green Sensation โ€“ 1 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Sugar Royal โ€“ 1 ml/L โš—๏ธ pH adjusted as required Current solution values remain around: โš—๏ธ pH โ€“ ~6.02 โšก EC โ€“ ~2.14 mS/cm Again... nothing special was created specifically for this girl. She's part of the same room. Same general nutritional foundation. Same environment. Same lighting. And yet... her expression is completely her own. That's the experiment. That's the beauty of the 8ร—8. Same stage. Different performers. And Black Diamond? She's definitely performing. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ‘‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒก๏ธ WEEK 13 โ€“ ROOM CONDITIONS The room remains broadly around: ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature: ~26.5ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature: ~26ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง RH: ~61% ๐ŸŒฑ Substrate temperature: ~25ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ฆ Nutrient solution: ~25ยฐC โš—๏ธ pH: ~6.02 โšก EC: ~2.14 mS/cm ๐Ÿ’จ COโ‚‚: ~693 ppm ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule: 12/12 ๐Ÿ’ง Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h ? Pot size: 15 L Same room. Same framework. Different girl. Different expression. And another beautiful chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’Ž SHE'S EVERYTHING A BLACK DIAMOND SHOULD BE If I had to describe her right now... I'd probably say: ๐Ÿ’Ž Beautiful ๐ŸŒธ Dense โ„๏ธ Frosty ๐Ÿ‘‘ Strong ๐ŸŒฟ Substantial โœจ Shining ๐Ÿ”ฅ Impressive And maybe... ๐Ÿ˜‚ "Absolutely not humble." Because she isn't. She's not hiding. She's not asking for permission. She's standing there saying: "Look at me." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’Ž And you know what? I'm looking. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŽถ SHINING BRIGHT LIKE A DIAMOND And yes... that song is still in my head. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ "Shining bright like a diamond..." And now I've decided that it's officially her theme song. If you hear me walking around the grow room humming it... you know why. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿ’Ž Because honestly... the name fits. She catches the light. She sparkles. She has that beautiful resinous shine. And she has become one of those plants that immediately attracts your attention. She's a diamond. She's shining. And she's mine to document. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ‘‘ Well... you know what I mean. ๐Ÿ˜‚ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฌ THIS IS WHY PHENO HUNTING IS SO MUCH FUN Starting with a seed... you don't know exactly what you're going to get. You can have expectations. You can have experience. You can know the genetics. But eventually... the plant tells you who she is. And Black Diamond Pheno A has been telling us for weeks. She likes building substantial flowers. She likes density. She likes producing plenty of flowering structures. She likes making herself noticed. And she likes shining. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž That's her personality. And that's exactly what I want to document. Not just: "Here is Black Diamond." But: "Here is THIS Black Diamond." This particular phenotype. This particular expression. This particular story. And that's what makes the 8ร—8 Adventure so special. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒŸ MY DIAMOND FROM THE SOIL I think that's the line I want to remember from this week. My diamond from the soil. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฑ She started as a seed. She became a plant. She developed branches. She created flowers. She started stacking. She became dense. She became frosty. And now... she's shining. That's a pretty beautiful journey. And we're still not at the end. There's still more to come. More development. More evolution. More observation. More photographs. And eventually... the final chapter. But we're not rushing it. She's still writing the story. And I'm happy to watch. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฎ WHAT COMES NEXT? More of the same... and hopefully even more beauty. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž We'll keep watching the flowers. We'll keep watching the density. We'll keep watching the frost. We'll keep watching the structure. We'll keep documenting the changes. And we'll let her decide when she's ready for the next chapter. No unnecessary rushing. No forcing the story. No pretending we know exactly what tomorrow looks like. We're simply watching. And right now? What we're watching is beautiful. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ญ FINAL THOUGHTS โ€“ SHINE ON, MY LITTLE DIAMOND Week 13. Black Diamond Auto Pheno A. And honestly... what a fucking beautiful plant. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ”ฅ She's not humble. She's not shy. She's not hiding. She's shining. Like a diamond. Like a star. Like whatever the hell that song is talking about... ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿ’Ž She's got a beautiful main cola. She's got beautiful flowers everywhere. She's dense. She's frosty. She's strong. She's substantial. She's becoming more and more impressive every single week. And I absolutely love her. She's one of those plants that makes you stop. Makes you smile. Makes you take another photograph. Then another. Then another. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ And eventually you're standing there thinking: "Okay... I think we've got enough." And then you find another angle. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž That's Black Diamond. She's my precious diamond coming out of the soil. Still becoming. Still developing. Still shining. And one day... after her entire journey is complete... she'll be ready for the next transformation. Cut. Trimmed. Dried. Cured. Polished in her own way. And eventually... she'll become something very different from the plant standing in front of me today. But for now? She's still my beautiful diamond in the soil. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ‘‘ So let's give her the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's admire that main cola. Let's admire all those beautiful flowers around her. Let's appreciate the density. Let's appreciate the frost. Let's appreciate the genetics. And let's keep watching. Because this girl? She's absolutely stunning. ๐Ÿ’Žโœจ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ”ฅ Shine on, my precious Black Diamond. Keep doing what you do. And keep making me smile every time I walk into the room. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ™ THANK YOU As always, a massive thank you to everyone following the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share the experience with growers around the world.

She's loaded with flowers. And apparently... she's got her own soundtrack. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿ’Ž "Shining bright like a diamond..." Yes. That's the one. I'm keeping it. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ So let's give my precious diamond the spotlight she deserves. Let's let her shine. Let's watch her continue to develop. Let's admire every beautiful flower. Let's appreciate the frost. And let's see what this girl decides to show us next. Because she isn't finished yet. She's still becoming. Still shining. Still growing. Still writing her story. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒธโœจ Growers Love, my friends. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ See you next week in the 8ร—8 jungle... where one Black Diamond continues to shine brighter than ever, the main cola still thinks she's the star, the side colas apparently refuse to accept supporting roles, and your DogDoctor is walking around the room humming a song that was apparently written specifically for this girl. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ‘‘ Shine bright, my precious diamond. Let her shine. ๐Ÿ’Žโœจ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ

Yo this is the start of week 8 of flower! This will definitely be the last week for this beautiful cultivar, her buds are rock hard, caked in trichomes and they are ripe for the picking. The smell this beaut is giving off is a skunk funky gas with that signature cannabis smell I canโ€™t get enough of. I canโ€™t stress this enough HOLY HELL THIS PLANT IS SOMETHING ELSE!!! Everything I want in a plant this plant has it. I will absolutely be growing this again and making a monster out of it because muh god if the taste is there I might just have to keep this around forever HAHAHAH. Good work everyone at premium cultivars you guys knocked it out of the park with this one. Until next time growmies hope you all do well! โ˜ฎ๏ธ 09/25/23

The LST i did in the past few weeks is starting to pay off. The plants are spreading nice and even, not bad for a first timer but it can be better. In this week, iโ€™ll try to water more to boost their growth because in the past few weeks i only water them once a week for the reason that I always wait until the top soil goes dry and it took almost a week for that to happen. I read in an article that you should carry your pot after a day of watering the plants to able to know that is the weight of the pot when it has water, so you can determine if the pot is light that means you can water them even the top soil is still wet. Iโ€™ll try this method lets see if iโ€™ll end up overfeeding my plants or not. In this week will be doing same routine like last week, always monitor humidity and temperature. Spread the fan leaves so the leaves underneath can receive enough light.

27.4.//Definitely those flying bugs were Fungus gnats. The soil was infected even I bought it in the store. So I had to use the insecticide which I'll attach as a photo; There is great natural replacement for this poison - Neem oil mixed with Hydrogen peroxide but unfortunately I couldn't find pure Neem oil in my country. 2.5. //plants are looking healthy and beautiful. Each plant has a fourth tier of leafs; Each plant is 5cm tall. 4.5.//finally I've got two more lights and now each plant is covered by 100w led light; Humidity began to rise as the plants also began to grow and humidity reached 62%;

Let's go to the finale. The eighth and final week of flowering. The flowers are hard as a rock. The trichomes are milky and sometimes an amber hue appears.
