Cinderella out the tent and right before harvest

I think this was right before flower

So it has come to an end of the 5th week of flowering . In this week i changed my reservoir for the first time. I spend more time monitoring the change of the reservoir and found out that the ppm of it was higher than the initial value. When i premix the solution it was around 850ppm but when i added it to the medium within 2 days it jumped to 1300-1400 . That caused a slight nutes burn but it was very mild. The other thing i found out is that the ph tends to become lower when it is added to the medium , i found some deficiencies on the leaves and i knew immediately that my ph was messed up. There are three things that i don’t really understand what i did wrong . 1.The size of the buds , since it is the end of week 5 into flowering . The buds seems underdeveloped compared to others. 2. I can’t see any trichomes clearly yet (very few) 3.why do i have a lot of sugar leaves and lots of small buds instead of few big buds. 🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨

Loving this sight…can’t wait to experience this classic.

Day 89: sad to see those beautiful fall colors go but I had to remove to allow the light through to the lower buds. Day 94: harvest tomorrow

They've started to grow their first sets of leaves and although temperature was a little higher than I'd liked they're coming along nicely. You can see the difference from just three days growth and then 3 days afer that! Adding a small amount of bio canna vega and molasses.

Hello let's call this first week of flower, she started to smell a little bit, also startet stretching, very strong plant! Have some Phosphorus deficiency (curled discolored leaves, yellow leaf tips) so i'm feeding half dose of Big Buds from Advanced Nutrients (NPK 0,1,3), let's see how she reacts. Day 30 TRYING TO FIX PROBLEMS BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE: Magnesium deficiency - yellowing between leaf veins. Phosphorus deficiency - curled leaves, yellow leave tips( nutrient deficiency overall) slow growth. Calcium deficiency - small rusted dots on the middle aged leaves. Ph was kinda high 7.1 Fix the problem: I've added 1.5ml/l Calmag 0.1.3 NPK 1ml/l Big buds which will give plant its nuteients. And water PH 5.5 to lower overall soil PH. I think she will bounce back in a few days! Day 34 and we are back on the track! She's been recovering and stretching very well, soil PH is 6.6 for now Day 35 end of frist week of flower, 10cm stretch in 7 days.

All good! My DWC experiment worked out better than expected! My soil grows are great!!!

Hello smokers and growers, back at it here for the dual pheno hunt going down. Found a male! Well, two actually, the Cold In the D by CAPULATOR is unfortunately a male (What should we do with it? Have 4 rooted clones ready) and one of the six Stardog Breath x Goat Supreme is a male (#4) ✅ In terms of vigor, Icing Kush #3 takes the cake. Took 2 clones of each Icing Kush and 2 clones of this mystery seed as well. After the long grow/dry/cure process we will smoke and decide the keeper pheno. The clone of that pheno will become a mother plant ready for producing more. Going to try and get each row filled with 1 strain at a time. This room will be 12/12 soon and we would like it to be perpetual. We now have our own genetics! get them here — linktr.ee/smokeyboro

2-24 1 gallon plain water, 6.4. She may get mad, I didn't add cal/mag. 2-25 Slightly adjusted LST, just to give a little more space. She sure is purdy 😻 Removed few leaves for light. Guy didnt mind. He had a all you can eat buffet 😂😂 3-1 1 gallon 5 ml cal/mag, 1 ml drops, 20 ml EM 1, 1.5 ml Amplify. Bubbling for 4 hrs. PH 6.4 ish Ohhh boy, she sure is gonna be happy today. 😁😁 See you next week!

Northern lights is looking a little bit sorry for itself. Unfortunately, she was leaning really heavily towards the ground. So I decided that I was going to use some metal garden pegs to prop her up with. She seems to be doing well in that respect now. The leaves are looking a little bit crazy. I'm not sure what's going on with that, but hopefully, she'll start growing, and she'll grow out of it. I guess we'll have to wait. And see what happens. I have added an additional 100Watt UVA/UVB lamp, as the uppermost canopy of Acapulco Gold is blocking pretty much everything in the tent. Hopefully, this will aid the shorter plants in surviving until I can harvest it. There will be so much more space and lighting. Can't wait! 😅 Here is what I did this week. 25.9.25: I watered with 1.5L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.5 with; 💜 Sea K PH: 6.5 PPM: 565 The fungus gnats have really increased since I did a watering of the whole tent. I have some more sticky traps set out, and I will not water for several days. Once it has dried the top soil, I will add some more Diatomaceous Earth to the top 5cm. Thanks for checking in this week, and see you in the comments 👌💚🙌🧡😁

Day 99. All 3 girls down. Wet trim . Can't wait to try them out. Scissors hash was so sweet ... 1.6 kg for wet plant is not bad too I think. Plant A should be biggest in this grow from all strains ... She has to beat 202 g. of AD. Happy Growing !!!

They're really taking off this week. They're gonna start foliar feeding with Flowers Kiss and get trimmed topped and lollipop this week. There you have it all cleaned up!!!

Week 5 started and the Ladys entered the flowering stage.

Questa settimana ho deciso di cambiare lampada tornando ad usare una vecchia hps che usavo prima, e ho notato che i risultati sono ottimi, con la lampada a LED sembrava che la fioritura stesse durando un'eternità, perciò ho provato a cambiare per vedere se la fioritura potesse velocizzarsi e sembra essere così. AGGIORNAMENTO: Giorno 8 NOVEMBRE, ho dato una bella sfoltita a tutte le bimbe, credo che questa sia l'ultima volta che le tocco anche perché questa volta ho eliminato alcuni rami veramente inutili e superflui.

🌱 8×8 Adventure – Folder 10 Frosted Guava – Plant A | Week 4 | The Compact Contender Begins to Bloom Every phenotype tells its own story, and that is exactly why this 8×8 Adventure continues to fascinate me. Growing twelve different genetics under the same environment using the 12/12 From Seed technique has become a constant lesson in how differently each cultivar interprets identical conditions. Some immediately stretch toward the light, while others choose patience, investing their energy into structure before committing to vertical growth. Frosted Guava Plant A clearly belongs to the second group. Rather than racing upward, she has spent these first weeks building an incredibly dense, compact framework. Looking at her today, it’s easy to understand why this phenotype caught my attention. Every internode remains tight, every branch is stacked close together, and the entire plant carries an impressive amount of healthy foliage without sacrificing vigor. She may not be the tallest lady in the tent, but she’s quietly building what looks to become an exceptionally productive little bush. The most exciting part? Despite her compact stature, she has officially begun announcing that flowering is just around the corner. ⸻ 🌱 Building a Foundation Before the Stretch One of the things I enjoy most about documenting these grows is watching personality emerge before flowers ever appear. Frosted Guava Plant A has developed into exactly the kind of plant that rewards patience. Instead of producing long internodal spacing, she has focused on creating a dense network of future flowering sites. Looking closely, nearly every node is alive with vigorous new growth, and fresh shoots are beginning to compete for dominance. The canopy is naturally uniform, making future light penetration much easier than on taller, more open phenotypes. Sometimes growers become concerned when a plant doesn’t stretch early under 12/12, but genetics ultimately decide how that energy is distributed. In this case, the energy has clearly gone underground first into the roots, then into stem thickness, branching, and node production before committing to vertical growth. The result is a plant that already feels mature despite standing only around 25 cm tall. ⸻ ✂️ Gentle Low Stress Training Instead of aggressive manipulation, this phenotype has been guided with a much softer approach. Throughout the week I continued using simple leaf bending, leaf tucking and gentle repositioning to expose hidden growth tips. No unnecessary stress, no heavy defoliation—just encouraging light to reach every developing branch naturally. This technique has worked beautifully. Rather than removing valuable solar panels, the larger fan leaves are simply moved out of the way, allowing the lower shoots to receive enough light to become future flowering tops. Sometimes the simplest training methods are also the most effective. The goal isn’t forcing the plant into shape. The goal is helping her discover her own. ⸻ 🌸 The First Signs of Flower One of the most enjoyable moments during a 12/12 From Seed project is seeing that unmistakable transition. This week those first pre-flower structures have become impossible to ignore. Tiny clusters are beginning to form across the upper nodes, the apical growth has changed shape, and the plant is slowly shifting away from vegetative expansion toward reproductive development. She isn’t waiting. Exactly as expected with this cultivation method, Frosted Guava is entering bloom while still maintaining a beautifully compact architecture. If the coming stretch remains moderate, this could easily become one of the densest canopies inside the entire 8×8 tent. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Conditions This week the room remained remarkably stable despite the warm summer conditions. Grow Environment • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 33°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 63% • 🌱 Substrate Temperature: 21°C • 💦 Nutrient Solution Temperature: 26°C • ⚡ EC: 1.35 mS/cm • ⚗️ pH: 6.1 • ☁️ CO₂: 639 ppm • 💧 Daily Water Consumption: 1.1 L • ? Pot Size: 15 L • ☀️ Light Schedule: 12/12 Although daytime temperatures continue to push higher than ideal, the plants have responded exceptionally well. Healthy leaf posture, rich coloration, vigorous growth and strong transpiration all suggest that root-zone conditions remain stable enough to offset the environmental heat. Sometimes plants tell you far more than any environmental sensor can. And these leaves are telling me they’re happy. ⸻ Feeding Program The nutrition program remained intentionally balanced to support both continued vegetative development and the beginning of flower initiation. This week’s recipe consisted of: • Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L • Power Roots — 1 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L • Lemon Kick — 0.03 ml/L With an EC of 1.35, the feeding remains moderate while supplying everything needed to sustain healthy growth without pushing the plant harder than necessary. The rich green foliage suggests the balance is right where it should be. ⸻ 🔬 Phenotype Notes Looking over this week’s photographs, several characteristics stand out. The stem has thickened noticeably and provides an excellent foundation for future flower weight. Branch spacing remains extremely tight, giving the plant a naturally bushy appearance without requiring topping or more invasive training. The new growth is vibrant, healthy and full of energy, while the canopy remains surprisingly symmetrical despite only using leaf tucking. Perhaps the most interesting observation is just how many future flowering sites are already visible. Nearly every branch tip appears ready to contribute to the final canopy. She may not be trying to become the biggest plant. She may simply be trying to become one of the fullest. Sometimes that’s an even better strategy. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead The coming week should be one of the most exciting yet. With flowering now beginning, I expect Frosted Guava Plant A to enter her stretch phase while continuing to produce additional flowering sites throughout the canopy. Training will remain gentle, focusing on canopy management rather than forcing structure. If she maintains this compact architecture while adding vertical growth, she could develop into one of the easiest plants in the room to manage. Every day she becomes a little more confident. And every week she gives another reason to be excited about what’s coming next. ⸻ 💚 Final Thoughts Projects like this remind me why I love growing. No two plants ever read the same script. Even when sharing identical lighting, nutrition, temperatures and care, every genetic line chooses its own path. Frosted Guava Plant A has decided that patience comes first—building strength before height, structure before stretch, and now finally revealing the first signs that flowering has officially begun. Watching those decisions unfold is one of the greatest rewards of documenting every week of this journey. A huge thank you to Zamnesia for providing these exciting Frosted Guava genetics, Plagron for the reliable soil and nutrient line that keeps this entire project thriving, and Future of Grow LED for delivering the powerful, even lighting that allows every phenotype to express its full potential. As always, thank you to the incredible GrowDiaries platform for giving growers around the world a place to learn from one another, and to everyone who follows this 8×8 Adventure week after week. Your encouragement, questions, advice and enthusiasm continue to make this journey even more rewarding. Growers Love and see you all next week, as Frosted Guava Plant A takes her first real steps into bloom. 🌱💚
