All the plants will be in the generative 3 phase of flower this week. I've updated the nutrients section for the week to show what the are being fed. I'm still feeding 3 gallons per plant daily. The number 3 plant is a few days behind the other two so it will get the Generative 2 feed, in the nutrients section for week 12, a few days this week.The two short plants have slowed their feeding way down on day 3 this week. The organic nutrients have a tendency to build up in the soil. Day 3 the two short plants got tap water. I'll wait til some of the leaves lighten up before I feed again. Day 4 the two short plants got fed. They didn't seem to be hurting for nutes but the leaves appeared to be losing color and the buds are still filling out. I had been feeding everyday until day 3. Day 5 and 6 the short plants got tap water and the tall one got the nutrients formula. Day 7 this week, the tallest and one of the short plants were fed the listed nutrient formula. There was no change in height this week. The tallest is 87.5 inches the two shorter ones 62 inches. I believe the two shorter plants will enter generative phase four/ripening next week. They are getting super frosty.

What I did to germinate my seed was I soaked the seed in water for 12 hours and I gave it a tap, once it sunk to the bottom I then placed in a wet paper towel for 24 hours and that has work for me 100%

Not much has changed this week. Both plants are growing steadily, although the previously injured plant is slightly behind the other one. I expect this difference to balance out over time. You can clearly see where the leaves were damaged earlier, and they are now growing a bit twisted and deformed as a result. The larger plant is already showing strong indica traits with big leaves and thick fingers. During the week, the plants will most likely be transplanted into a larger pot and will receive their BioTabs treatment โ€“ including nutrients and beneficial microorganisms. Basically the whole organic setup. Iโ€™m confident theyโ€™re going to love it. Iโ€™ll be away on vacation for a few weeks after this update, so some diary entries may be posted with a slight delay. The plants will be taken care of and watered during that time, and progress will still be documented. Both plants were successfully transplanted into 3.5 liter pots and received the full BioTabs treatment, including microorganisms and nutrients. The substrate is based on reused and reconditioned soil with roughly 50% perlite mixed in. The base soil is BioBizz Light Mix. Since watering is done exclusively with osmosis water, about 7 g of dolomite lime per liter of soil was added to provide proper calcium and magnesium buffering. This run marks the first time following the BioTabs โ€œjust add waterโ€ strategy. The substrate was prepared accordingly and amended with Startrex and Silicium Flash. Before placing the plants into their new pots, Mycotrex was sprinkled directly into the planting hole and one BioTab was added to each pot. After transplanting, the leaves were lightly sprayed with Boom Boom Spray. The substrate was then watered with osmosis water mixed with Bactrex. Everything went smoothly and the plants handled the transplant very well. From here on, itโ€™s all about letting the biology do the work.

๐Ÿฆ„๐ŸŒฟ Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B Week 14 โ€“ The Dark Little Unicorn Has Left the Tentโ€ฆ Big Mama's Next Chapter Awaits! ๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’Žโ„๏ธ Welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And here we are again, my friendsโ€ฆ Another Frosted Guava has left the building! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฆ„โœ‚๏ธ Last time, we said goodbye to her sister, Frosted Guava Pheno A, as she left the tent and started her post-harvest journey. And now? It's Pheno B's turn. Our dark little unicorn. Our frosty girl. Our beautiful Big Mama. ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฟ Because yes, this girl has her own personality, her own structure, and her own story. And although the two sisters share some similarities, they certainly haven't been identical throughout this adventure. Same genetic family. Same room. Same general environment. Same 12/12 journey from seed. But two different seeds, two different expressions, and two beautiful girls who have given us plenty to appreciate. And now, just like her sister, Pheno B has completed her time in the tent. We took her final photographs in the grow room, moved her into the studio, photographed individual branches and flowers, explored some macro details, and created more photo stacks. Then we broke her down, removed the leaves we wanted to take off, vacuum-bagged the material, and placed it in the freezer. โ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ“ธ That's where she is now. Resting. Waiting for the next chapter. And that next chapter will involve processing the frozen material into bubble hash. We'll document that process in future updates, explain what we're doing, and share what happens after the extraction. But we're not going to jump ahead. Today is about Frosted Guava Pheno B, her journey, her harvest day, her photographs, and the beginning of this new chapter. So let's give Big Mama the spotlight she deserves! ๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’š 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“ข FIRST THINGS FIRST โ€“ WHY ARE WE PUTTING HARVEST DAY IN A FLOWERING WEEK? Before we get into the photographs, let's explain why we're documenting another harvest under a flowering-week update. I know some of you might look at the diary and think: "Hang on a minuteโ€ฆ isn't this a harvest report?" ๐Ÿ˜‚ Yes, my friends. It is harvest day. But GrowDiaries has a limit of 30 photographs per update, and when you're documenting an entire harvest journey, those photographs disappear very quickly. We have the final photographs inside the tent. We have the studio session. We have individual branches and flower details. We have macro photography. We have photo stacks. We have the breakdown and trimming. We have the vacuum-bagging process. And we still have the extraction and everything that follows to document. That's a lot of material to squeeze into one update! So, just as we did with her sister, we're using this flowering-week entry to document the final day in the tent and the beginning of her post-harvest journey. This is an individual diary, and we want to keep her story together as clearly as possible. GrowDiaries doesn't provide a dedicated section specifically for extraction projects, so we'll use the available diary updates to document the different stages without pretending that everything happened in one day or one chapter. Depending on how much material we have, we'll continue in another update or updates. The extraction itself will have its own explanation, and we'll share the results when we actually have them. So please consider this the beginning of Big Mama's post-harvest story, not the final report. Thank you for understanding, everyone! ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฑ A QUICK RECAP โ€“ THE 12/12 JOURNEY Let's rewind for a moment. Frosted Guava Auto Pheno B has been part of our 8ร—8 Adventure, where we've been following different plants and phenotypes sharing the same general environment. And one of the most interesting parts of this project has been watching how differently plants can express themselves under a shared setup. We started these plants from seed under a 12/12 light schedule. That means we've been observing their development from the beginning under the same daily light-and-dark rhythm, rather than changing to a conventional longer vegetative schedule before flowering. And the autoflowers? Wellโ€ฆ They've certainly given us plenty to talk about! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฟ Throughout this run, we've watched the plants develop at their own pace, build their own structures, and show their own personalities. Frosted Guava Pheno B became one of our more distinctive girls. Her darker green character, beautiful flowers, frost, and unusual flowering structures made her increasingly recognizable as the weeks went by. And, of course, her sister was showing some similar foxtailing characteristics. That doesn't prove a specific genetic explanation by itself, but it gave us an interesting pattern to observe in this shared environment. Two sisters. Two individual expressions. And plenty of reasons to keep looking closely. That's what I love about this adventure. We aren't trying to make every plant look the same. We're documenting what each one becomes. And now, Big Mama has reached the end of her flowering journey. ๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒธ 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‘‘ BIG MAMA HAS LEFT THE TENT Let's be honestโ€ฆ This girl earned her nickname. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘ Big Mama! She has been a beautiful presence in the room, and although she shares a genetic family with Pheno A, she's developed her own character along the way. The flowering journey is now complete for this plant. We took our last photographs of her inside the tent, documenting her where she'd spent her time growing alongside the rest of the 8ร—8 girls. Those photographs matter because they preserve the final view of the plant in her original environment. Once a plant is harvested, the structure changes. The branches are separated. The flowers are handled individually. The grow-room chapter ends, and the post-harvest chapter begins. So before doing anything else, I wanted to capture that transition. One last look at Big Mama in the tent. One last photographic record of the plant as a whole. And thenโ€ฆ It was time to move her into the studio. ๐Ÿ“ธ๐ŸŒฟ 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 STUDIO TIME โ€“ GIVING BIG MAMA HER MOMENT After documenting her final day in the tent, we took Frosted Guava Pheno B into the studio. And this is where I get to enjoy another side of the whole adventure. Photography! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ’š I love documenting plants while they're growing, but the studio gives us another opportunity to explore their details. We took photographs of the plant and selected branches. We photographed individual flowers from different angles. We explored the details more closely. And, of course, we spent time creating photo stacks. Because I don't want to remember Big Mama only as a plant that stood in the tent. I want to preserve the details that made her interesting. Her structure. Her flowers. Her individual characteristics. The way she looked at the end of her flowering journey. And those photographs will become part of her permanent diary record. The grow tells us how she developed. The photographs help us look back and appreciate what she became. And for me, that's a beautiful combination. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ‘‘ 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 MACRO PHOTOGRAPHY โ€“ GETTING CLOSER Some of the photographs from this session focus on individual flowers and smaller details. And that's where things become especially interesting for me. From a distance, you see the overall plant. Move closer, and you start noticing the individual flower structures. Get closer still, and there are details that can be easy to overlook when you're simply looking at the plant in the tent. That's one of the reasons I enjoy macro photography and stacking. It gives me a way to study and document the subject more closely. And Frosted Guava Pheno B has certainly given us something worth exploring. ๐Ÿฆ„๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฌ I also enjoy the creative side of the process. The lighting. The angles. The background. The focus. The way a small change in position can completely change how a flower looks in the final photograph. It's a different kind of work from growing, but it's still part of how I enjoy this hobby. And Big Mama deserved a proper studio session before moving on to her next chapter. 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 PHOTO STACKING โ€“ MORE THAN ONE PICTURE If you've been following my recent updates, you already know how much I enjoy photo stacking. For anyone who hasn't come across it before, the basic idea is to capture multiple photographs of the same subject at different focus distances and combine the sharp areas into one final image. This can create a photograph with greater apparent depth of field and reveal more of the subject's details. But it's not simply a matter of pressing a button and walking away. ๐Ÿ˜‚ There's setup involved. There's lighting. There's positioning. There's capturing the individual frames. And then there's processing the photographs and checking how the final image comes together. For this session, we took individual flowers and branches into the studio and created stacks to document some of the details that caught my eye. The resulting images give us another way to appreciate Big Mama beyond the wider photographs of the whole plant. And that's what I love about this process. One plant can give you many different photographic stories. The whole plant. A branch. A flower. A macro detail. A stacked image. Each one shows something different. ๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ’š 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 FROM PLANT TO INDIVIDUAL FLOWERS After the photographs, we moved on to the next part of the process. We broke the plant down into individual sections and removed the leaves we didn't want to retain around the flowers. This was part of preparing the material for the next stage of our project. I want to make an important distinction here. This wasn't a conventional drying-and-curing update, and we're not presenting the material as finished flower. We have taken a different route with this particular harvest. After the initial breakdown and trimming, we vacuum-bagged the material and placed it in the freezer. โ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ That's where it is now. The plant has left the tent. The studio session is complete. The material has been prepared and stored. And the next chapter will focus on the extraction process we're planning to document. So, rather than trying to explain every part of that process here, we'll give it the attention it deserves in a future report. For now, this update is about the harvest itself and the transition from the growing environment to the next stage. 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 BAGGED, VACUUM-SEALED AND INTO THE FREEZER And nowโ€ฆ Big Mama is resting in the freezer. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‘ After breaking the plant down and removing the leaves we wanted to take off, we vacuum-bagged the material and placed it in the freezer. This is the preparation stage for the next part of the project. We're planning to use this frozen material for a bubble-hash extraction, and we'll document that process separately. I don't want to jump ahead and start describing results we don't have yet. The extraction hasn't been documented in this report. We haven't shown the final product. And we're not going to pretend that the story is already finished. Right now, the material is stored, and the next chapter is still waiting for us. โ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ This is one of those moments where the diary becomes a little different from a conventional grow report. We're not simply following a plant from seed to harvest and stopping there. We're documenting what happens next, too. And that means giving each stage its own space. Big Mama's growing chapter is finished. Her post-harvest chapter has begun. And the extraction story is still ahead of us. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿซง THE NEXT CHAPTER โ€“ BUBBLE HASH So, what happens next? The plan is to document the process of turning the frozen material into bubble hash. For anyone unfamiliar with the term, bubble hash is a type of cannabis concentrate made by separating resin-bearing trichome material from plant material using ice-cold water and filtration. The process uses the difference in physical characteristics between the resin-bearing material and the rest of the plant, with filtration helping separate the collected material into different grades. It's a different project from simply drying and curing flower, which is why we want to document it separately rather than trying to squeeze it into this harvest update. We'll explain what bubble hash is, how the process works at a high level, what equipment and stages we're using, and what we observe along the way. We'll also document the drying of the collected material and what we decide to do with it afterwards. But we're not there yet. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿซง For now, Big Mama is safely stored in the freezer, and the next chapter will begin when we're ready to carry out and document that process. I want to show the journey as it happens, step by step, rather than write the ending before we've reached it. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ? WHY THIS IS A DIFFERENT STORY FROM HER SISTER This is where things get interesting. Frosted Guava Pheno A and Pheno B belong to the same genetic family, but their individual diaries are telling two separate stories. Both girls have now left the tent. Both have had their harvest-day photographs. Both have moved on from the flowering stage. But the post-harvest journey we're documenting here focuses on Big Mama and what we're doing with her material next. For Pheno B, we've chosen to vacuum-bag the prepared material and store it in the freezer as part of our planned bubble-hash project. That means her next update will have a different focus from a report centred on drying and curing whole flowers. We're still documenting the plant's journey, but the next stage is a different one. And that's precisely why I want to keep her report individual. Even when two plants share a cultivar, they deserve their own records. Their development is individual. Their harvest is individual. And their post-harvest journeys can be individual, too. Two Frosted Guava sisters. Two beautiful plants. And two stories that don't need to be identical. ๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿ’š 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 THE 8ร—8 ADVENTURE CONTINUES There's something special about reaching this stage of the project. For weeks, we've been watching a room full of different plants sharing the same general environment. We've observed different structures. Different growth patterns. Different flowering expressions. Different rhythms. And now, one by one, the girls are moving into their next chapters. Frosted Guava Pheno B has completed her time in the tent. The plants still growing in the room continue their own journeys. And our documentation continues with them. That's the beauty of keeping individual diaries. Each plant gets her own timeline. Each plant gets her own photographs. Each plant gets her own story. And even after harvest, we can continue documenting what happens next. Big Mama may have left the tent, but she's still very much part of the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ 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˜‚ BIG MAMA IS RESTING โ€“ DOC HAS MORE WORK TO DO Let's be honest. Big Mama has done her part. She's grown. She's flowered. She's given us beautiful photographs. She's had her studio session. And now she's resting in the freezer. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‘ Meanwhile, DogDoctor still has photographs to organize, stacks to process, future updates to prepare, and an extraction project to document. Apparently, the work doesn't stop just because the plant has left the tent. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿซง But that's part of the fun. Growing is one part of the journey. Photographing is another. Documenting the harvest is another. And now we have a new chapter waiting for us. I'm looking forward to sharing it with you, because I want to show not only the final outcome but also the process that gets us there. One stage at a time. One update at a time. And one beautiful Big Mama at a time. 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? The next chapter will focus on the extraction project. We'll document the bubble-hash process, explain the stages, and share what happens when we work with the frozen material. We'll also cover how we handle the collected material afterwards and what we decide to do with the final result. The amount of material we have to share will determine whether we can fit everything into one update or whether we'll need more than one. Either way, we won't rush it. We want the information and photographs to tell the story properly. And once that part of the journey is complete, we'll be able to bring everything together in a final report. For now, Big Mama is resting. The freezer is doing its job. And we're preparing for the next chapter. ?๐Ÿซง๐ŸŒฟ 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€“ BIG MAMA'S STORY ISN'T FINISHED Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia. Pheno B. Harvest day. ๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’Ž What a beautiful journey this girl has given us. We've watched her grow from seed under a 12/12 schedule. We've followed her individual development. We've seen her distinctive character emerge. We've admired her flowers and unusual structures. We've compared her journey with her sister's while allowing her to remain her own plant. And now, we've reached the end of her time in the tent. We took her final photographs in the grow room. We moved her into the studio. We photographed branches and flowers. We captured macro details and created photo stacks. Then we broke her down, removed the leaves we wanted to take off, vacuum-bagged the material, and placed it in the freezer. โ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ But this isn't the final report. It's the beginning of another chapter. The material is waiting for the bubble-hash project, and we'll document that process in future updates. We'll share what we do, what we observe, and what happens afterwards. Until then, Big Mama gets to rest while we prepare the next part of the story. And I want to say something about this whole journey. Not every plant needs to end her story in exactly the same way. Not every phenotype needs to follow the same path after harvest. And not every diary needs to fit into one neat, identical format. The important thing is to document what actually happened, explain the decisions we made, and share the experience honestly. That's what we're doing here. Big Mama has her own story. Her sister has hers. And both deserve their own spotlight. ๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’š So let's give this beautiful girl the recognition she deserves. Thank you for the flowers, Big Mama. Thank you for the photographs. Thank you for the memories. And thank you for giving us another reason to keep exploring the many different ways these plants can express themselves. Your time in the tent is finished. But your story? It's still going. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘โ„๏ธ 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 our experiences with growers around the world. And thank you for understanding why this harvest update sits under a flowering week.

๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Week 6 (Flower): Sticky Broccoli #1 โ€” The Chromatic Transition & The 10ml/L Seaweed Offensive ๐Ÿ‹๐ŸŒ‹ โ€‹The Data Dump: We have officially hit the Week 6 milestone, and the Sativa-dominant Sticky Broccoli #1 is putting on a masterclass in late-stage floral maturation. We are moving past the "growth" phase and into a high-intensity period of secondary metabolite synthesis and biomass consolidation. โ€‹๐ŸŽจ The Chromatic Spectrum: Terminal Senescence โ€‹The Autumnal Fade: The canopy is currently undergoing a stunning physiological shift. We are seeing a spectrum of yellows, oranges, and deep reds. This is more than just a "fade"โ€”itโ€™s the degradation of chlorophyll unmasking the plant's latent anthocyanins and carotenoids. โ€‹Nutrient Translocation: This color shift confirms that the plant is strategically cannibalizing its remaining mobile nutrient reserves and relocating that vital energy into the swelling floral clusters. Itโ€™s the ultimate "last stand" to maximize bud density. โ€‹๐Ÿ‹ Terpene Profile & Resin Saturation โ€‹The Limonene Surge: The olfactory intensity has reached a critical level. We are dealing with an aggressive, dominant citrus profileโ€”a sharp, "lemon-cleaner" punch that signals a massive concentration of Limonene. โ€‹Trichome Lamination: The sugar leaves are officially "dripping." Instead of just a light frost, we are seeing a total saturation of glandular capitate-stalked trichomes. The resin is so thick itโ€™s practically laminating the floral surfaces, creating a protective barrier of pure potency. โ€‹ The 10ml/L Phytohormonal Blitz โ€‹Weโ€™ve made a bold tactical adjustment by pushing the Cold-Pressed Seaweed Juice to a massive 10ml/L. โ€‹The Logic: At this concentration, we aren't just "feeding" the plant; we are overwhelming the Rhizosphere with complex carbohydrates and cytokinins. This acts as a biological "turbocharger" for our Microbe Army. โ€‹Metabolic Support: By super-charging the soil life, we ensure the Green Sensation and FFJ are being processed and delivered with zero latency. This keeps the metabolic "gears" turning even as the plant enters its final autumnal phase. โ€‹๐Ÿš€ Strategic Forecast: Structural Consolidation โ€‹We are ignoring the trichome color for nowโ€”it's far too early for cloudy/amber data. Instead, we are monitoring structural markers: โ€‹Calyx Swell: Watching for the individual calyxes to "crown" and harden, merging the loose stacks into solid blocks of flower mass. โ€‹Pistil Recession: The engine stays at full throttle as long as we see those active, bright white pistils. Once they begin to recede and wither, we'll know we're in the endgame. โ€‹๐Ÿ’ง The Week 6 High-Octane Cocktail (Per Liter) โ€‹๐ŸŒŠ Seaweed Juice: 10ml/L (The Metabolic Catalyst) โ€‹๐ŸŒ Banana & Jaggery FFJ: 4ml/L (Organic P/K Energy) โ€‹๐Ÿ’ฅ Green Sensation: 1ml/L (Mineral P/K for Density) โ€‹๐Ÿฏ Sugar Royal: 1ml/L (Amino-driven Resin Synthesis) โ€‹๐ŸŒธ Power Buds: 1ml/L (Bio-stimulant for Stacking) โ€‹ Silica Tea: 2ml/L (Vascular Armor) โ€‹ CalMag Boost: 1ml/L (Secondary Nutrient Buffer).

Harvest Report by Zuppler - End of Week 9 Yo, whatโ€™s good fam? Zuppler comin' through with that harvest report, Week 9 wrapped up and itโ€™s time to bring these queens down. The buds are lookinโ€™ fat, frosty, and sticky โ€“ they ripened up just right, with that perfect mix of milky and amber trichomes. Real proud of how this run turned out. I learned a lot in this grow, no doubt. Dialin' in them nutes, catchin' the burn early, and lettin' them heavy buds stack properly. Itโ€™s all about leveling up, ya feel me? Next grow, Iโ€™m excited to be poppin' some Cherry Pie and Fruit Cake beans โ€“ gonna take everything I learned this round and make the next one even better. Zuppler out. Stay tuned, fam โ€“ the next oneโ€™s gonna be fire!

YEEEEEEAAAH BOOOOOI, my fabric pot arrived as i expected so i re-potted my baby about 8pm tonight, i used the same CANNA TERRA PRO Soil as before to fill the fabric pot (Soaked it in water then let to drain) and the transplant went smoothly. A video and photo have been uploaded showing it in its forever pot, and i also installed a proper oscillating fan. 14/09 Checked in on the baby this afternoon and looks like shes handled the re-potting just fine which is great news! Everything else is as per usual so will just throw some update photos on. 15/09 Today I checked in on the baby as usual and everything's looking great, she grew a noticeable difference although that's hard to tell in the photos. I gave her a good watering so the humidity came up to 70% for a short time but that's nothing to worry about. Temperature sat around 22 degrees Celsius all day. Photo's show the top and side views for reference. 16/09 Once again the LSD baby grew a nice amount over the day and is looking stout and healthy. The stem is already hardening off and very thick for its short size so i decided to begin to pull her over using LST as i will need to focus on keeping my plant growing low and across due to the space available in my cupboard. Everything went well during the LST so i have put photos up showing what i have done. Temp and humidity is usual. 17/09 Today after work i decided to finally get the mylar roll out and patch the ends of my cupboard as it was pretty rough with tinfoil. I cut out cardboard walls to shape of the existing ends and then lined the edges with carpet tape. I had someone help hold one side and we just placed it down swiftly flat onto the card. This mostly pulled it tight but its not perfect. Other than that, everything's going as per usual and i've uploaded some update photos 18/09 Nothing much to update today, everything's looking good. The weathers been pretty shit so the humidity is up but thats not a worry right now and summer coming up will eliminate that problem. Have updated a couple of photos, basically the plan is to train the plant along the cupboard as low as possible before tipping. This way i can utilize the short spaced cupboard. 19/09 Updated the photos! Everything's looking good, the temperature that is showing is the evening temperature 'which is affected slightly as the cupboard is in a garage. A little low but will only get better as spring comes in. 20/09

Day 50. I'm sorry for late update but I was busy. New tent 120x60 for 3 epsilons as I had no space. Purplematic cbd had to go on window. I had huge problems with humidity and for a week was 70+ that's why you can see nutrient deficiency. Now all should be OK.

Hey guys :-) Today a new diary starts with a strain from Amsterdam Genetics that I'm really looking forward to โ˜บ๏ธ. I put 2 seeds to germinate. The more beautiful phenotype is kept in this diary, the other one is of course also preserved and is grown to the end ๐Ÿ‘ . Of course everyone will be on instagram. (Maybe I will spontaneously start an extra diary with each phenotype, depending on whether time permits. Since I still have 3 seeds left, they will also come in the course of time ๐Ÿ˜ƒ. The seeds were placed between damp paper towels to germinate. As soon as the first life appears they come to root in rockwool cubes and a greenhouse hood where there is a very high humidity. In addition, the greenhouse is heated so that the roots can develop nicely ๐Ÿ‘. This passage is fertilized with the Greenhouse Feeding Bio line ๐Ÿ’š. I'm really looking forward to growing with Amsterdam genetics because everything I've had from them so far has been very good ๐Ÿ‘. Have fun with the update and stay healthy ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ You can buy this Nutrients at : https://shop.greenhousefeeding.com/us/ ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ You can buy this strain at : https://www.amsterdamgenetics.com/product/choco-cheesecake/ Water ๐Ÿ’ง ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿ’ง Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

It was a busy week full of events. I got them a 600 watts HPS light and microbes to help them grow faster. I finally started the trellis netting to even the canopy and get more from the lights and I also spray the plants again for bugs. I found out that I've been using powder nutrients on my reservoir and that's probably why I've been getting floods two or tree times a week and now the valve is open only when I'm there, because I'm sick of cleaning and I took that little sick plant out. My cats have her now.

Die Pflanzen sehen in Ordnung aus, habe aber diverse Probleme mit diesem Durchgang gehabt. Einerseits das Problem mit der รœberbelichtung, dann habe ich festgestellt dass eine der Pflanzen (warum auch immer) รผbergossen war, vermutlich war der topf noch nicht ausreichend durchwurzelt. Dann macht der Sommer unfassbare Probleme die Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit im Griff zu haben vorallem da ich zu frรผh gelollipoppt habe . Dann ist auch noch unsere Regentonne draussen kaputt gegangen und ich muss mit Leitungswasser gieรŸen. Habe nur 3/4 der Herstellerangaben verwendet , war wohl trotzdem zu viel Pflanzen haben definitiv Nรคhrstoffbrand. Und weil des alles nicht reicht haben wir auch einen Calcium und eine Magnesium Mangel. Habe mit CalMag entgegengewirkt. Alles in allem nicht optimal. Trotzdem die Pflanzen sind extrem Zuckrig und riechen krรคftig. Kann den Geruch nicht ganz einschรคtzen. Ab jetzt Flushe ich noch 1 Woche bevor ich dann meine Pflanzen ernte. Ich denke der nรคchste Grow wird wieder mit vielen Klonen sein.
