Eccoci qui... Finalmente dopo uno stop per il lavoro torno ad aggiornare il diario con il capitolo finale... Ho tagliato a scalare in quanto 2 cime erano pronte e due ancora no quindi ho tagliato le prime e due e poi quetse ultime. Questa piccola è davvero super fast sono rimasto a bocca aperta per come si è maturata in fretta, purtroppo ho perso le altre foto ma riproporrò sicuramente questa piccola!! Grazie a @MSNL e ad @Xpertnutrients per la collab e a tutti per il supporto🔥🌲❤️ NE VERRANNO DELLE BELLE

🍮 Chem Brûlée – Pheno A Week 5 | Giant Leaves, Big Dreams Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! If you’ve been following this project from the beginning, you’ll know that every phenotype is writing its own story. Although they all share the same room, the same environment, the same lighting schedule, and very similar nutrition, each plant continues to express herself in completely unique ways. That’s exactly why I love phenotype hunts. This project follows every plant individually using the 12/12 From Seed method, allowing each lady to decide for herself when she’s ready to leave vegetative growth behind and begin flowering. This week… Chem Brûlée Pheno A left absolutely no doubt. Flowering has officially begun. ⸻ 🌼 The First Flowers One of the most exciting moments during any grow is seeing those first bright white pistils appear. These delicate hairs are the female reproductive organs of the plant and mark the true beginning of flower production. During these first weeks, the plant is shifting priorities. Instead of investing all her energy into producing stems and leaves, she now begins building the framework that will eventually become dense, resin-coated flowers. Every new white hair is another small step toward harvest. It’s always an exciting stage to witness. ⸻ 🍃 Those Incredible Fan Leaves The first thing anyone notices about this phenotype… Those leaves. They’re absolutely enormous. Some of these fan leaves are nearly twice the size of my own hands—and I definitely don’t have tiny hands! Large fan leaves often indicate a plant that is photosynthesizing efficiently, capturing as much light energy as possible to fuel rapid development. They’re essentially giant solar panels. As long as they’re healthy, standing proudly, and maintaining a rich green colour, they’re doing exactly what nature designed them to do. At this stage I prefer to let them work. Every healthy leaf is another energy factory helping build the flowers that are only just beginning to form. ⸻ 🌱 Gentle Training Training continues to remain incredibly simple. No aggressive bending. No topping. No heavy defoliation. Instead, we’re relying mainly on gentle leaf tucking and subtle low-stress training to improve light penetration while allowing the plant to maintain her natural structure. Sometimes the best training isn’t forcing a plant into shape. Sometimes it’s simply helping her reveal the shape she already wanted to grow. So far… She’s rewarding that patience beautifully. ⸻ 💧 AutoPot Life Chem Brûlée Pheno A is growing on the AutoPot irrigation system. Once the root system becomes established, the AquaValve automatically delivers nutrient solution from below whenever the plant drinks enough to lower the water level inside the tray. There’s no timer. No electricity controlling irrigation. No daily watering routine. The plant simply feeds herself whenever she needs it. It’s a remarkably elegant system that encourages consistent moisture levels while reducing stress caused by repeated drying cycles. This week I’ve also included photos comparing the nutrient solution used in the AutoPot reservoir with the hand-feeding mix used for the non-AutoPot plants. Although the recipes are very similar, the EC differs slightly because plants growing on AutoPots receive a constant supply of nutrients, allowing for a more stable feeding strategy. Every cultivation method has its own rhythm. Learning those rhythms is part of becoming a better grower. ⸻ 🍽️ Feeding Strategy This week we adjusted the nutrition slightly to support the transition into flowering. The bloom nutrients are now beginning to take over while still providing enough support for the final stretch before flower production accelerates. As always, every adjustment is based on observation rather than routine. Healthy plants tell you what they need. You simply have to learn how to listen. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Conditions The room continues running beautifully. Average conditions this week included: • Day temperature: 31°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 67% • Nutrient solution: 21.6°C • Root zone: 21°C • CO₂: 639 ppm Humidity remains slightly higher during this transitional phase because the plants are still producing large amounts of fresh vegetative growth while stretching into flower. Over the coming weeks, humidity will gradually be reduced as flowers begin gaining density. The room itself is really starting to come alive now. Every day the canopy looks fuller, healthier, and more vibrant than the day before. Watching an entire room evolve together never gets old. ⸻ 📸 Capturing the Journey This week’s update includes bird’s-eye views, side profiles, close-ups, and room shots to document every stage of Chem Brûlée A’s development. One of my favourite details is simply seeing those giant fan leaves from different angles. Months from now they’ll be part of the story, reminding us where this beautiful lady began before her canopy disappears beneath a forest of flowers. That’s why I enjoy documenting everything. Not just the destination… But every step that leads there. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead Next week I expect Chem Brûlée A to continue stretching while producing many more pistils across the canopy. Bud sites should become more clearly defined, and the first signs of flower stacking will begin to appear. Training will remain minimal, allowing her natural structure to continue developing while we simply guide her when necessary. Sometimes the biggest changes happen quietly. This feels like one of those moments. ⸻ 💚 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure. Whether you’re here to learn, compare phenotypes, improve your own garden, or simply enjoy watching these incredible plants grow, I’m grateful you’re sharing this journey with me. Special thanks to: 💚 GrowDiaries for giving growers around the world a place to learn, document, and inspire one another. Zamnesia for providing the genetics that make this phenotype hunt possible. 🌱 Plagron for the nutrition supporting every stage of this grow. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light that powers every day of development. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable environment around the clock. And finally… Thank you to every grower, follower, supporter, silent reader, friend, and even the occasional critic. Every visit, every comment, every bit of encouragement helps make these diaries something truly special. I’ll see you all next week, where Chem Brûlée Pheno A will continue transforming those giant solar panels into the energy needed to build what promises to be some truly beautiful flowers. Until then… Growers Love and happy growing, everyone. 🌱🍮💚

Still haven't harvested the smaller one. I'll harvest it tomorrow and freeze it straight away. It's going to be tough to freeze those beautiful buds instead of smoking them, but premium hash requires premium buds! :-D I'll be forced to harvest the big one on Thursday because I'm heading away for 2 weeks on Friday... :-/

🌸 WEEK 5 FLOWER – “Aiming for the Moon” Hello, beautiful people! It’s been a busy stretch, but I’m finally back with another exciting update from our Permanent Marker girls — and wow, what a sight they are right now. Both phenos are truly stunning in their own unique ways. • Pheno #1 is aiming for the moon — nearly 2 meters tall, stretching with grace, and starting to show her first flashes of color. The top buds are swelling, pistils glowing bright white, and the early hues are giving us a glimpse of what’s to come. • Pheno #2 stays more compact around 120 cm, with equally gorgeous bud formation — dense, balanced, and full of life. We did a light defoliation this week to open the canopy, helping airflow and light penetration reach deeper into the structure. The goal is simple: give the photons space to dance and the air room to breathe. The results are already visible — the girls look happier, more open, and vibrant. 🌿 Environment & Feeding Conditions are stable now that the AC is up and running (finally!). Temperatures have dropped to a comfortable range, and both phenos seem to love it. We continue with our Aptus Holland organic program, using: • Regulator • Top Booster • CalMag Boost The pellets in the soil are still doing their silent magic, slowly releasing nutrients and keeping the system balanced. 💫 Bud Development This week, trichomes are starting to form more visibly, and the white hairs are shining under the lights. The buds are stacking up beautifully, especially on Pheno #1 — her size and structure promise something truly special. The aroma is beginning to intensify, that sweet, deep tone of the Permanent Marker genetics revealing itself layer by layer. 🌍 A Quick Recap From germination in the CannaKan, through the lush veg powered by Aptus nutrition, under the ThinkGrow and Future of Grow LEDs, this grow has been a journey of precision, patience, and passion. Now, at week 5 flower, we’re officially entering the heavy bloom phase — where the artistry of the genetics truly begins to express itself. 🏆 Dognabis Cup Update The Dognabis Cup is officially in full bloom too! The welcome boxes have reached growers worldwide, and we’re seeing the first unboxings and diaries popping up — what a beautiful sight! To all participants: good luck and have fun! Remember, the more detailed and complete your diary, the better your chances of winning. This Cup is about sharing, learning, and growing together — and I’m so proud to see it finally taking shape. 🌱 What’s Next Next week, we’ll be looking for more color expression, denser stacking, and the early glisten of trichome frost. I’ll also be keeping a close eye on the temperature balance as the buds pack on size. Huge thanks to everyone who follows this journey — the sponsors, the community, the growers, the dreamers, the haters, the lovers — every one of you makes this space alive. Until next week, stay lifted and stay curious. 🌿✨ To grow is to share, to bloom is to connect — and through every cup, seed, and story, we keep the garden alive. **THE DOGNABIS CUP OFFICIALLY STARTED** ⏰ @everyone **The Dognabis Cup** is an independent, community-driven virtual competition designed to bring people together, celebrate and share the passion for cultivation.

6 week started in July, 8. In this week i incorporate some CO2.The plants look great.The tallest plant is a syrup buddha, its weird because she is one week younger.I know that i said that i will do another diarie for the younger plants but im lazy, and the other plants are faster than the Lemons, so they are kind of in the same week. I keep feeding them with 1/2 of the snoop's premium nutrients bloom and the other half with snoop's premium nutrients grow, following the recommendations of the product. Also i incorporate Genesis from Agrobeta (pictures in the 5 week).

Partially drained the tank at the start of the week and topped up with ro water and 1ml of final solution per Litre. Last 2.5 days were in darkness. I trimmed the majority of fan leaves before hanging up to dry in the tent today. Started out trimming with the plants in the tent and soon realised it would be much easier to just cut them down whole, hang them upside down outside the tent and trim them up a bit. I have a small dehumidifier and a small fan heater setup in the tent and they have been keeping a humidity level of about 60% and a temp of 16 Celsius for the last few days while the lights have been off. I figure that's a good starting point for drying and I can increase the temperature if needed, that will drop the humidity also. Intake fan at the bottom and extract fan at the top are running constantly as they have been since the grow started (low power 4" fans). I might add back in a fan for circulation depending on how the drying goes, or maybe even trim or hang the plants better to get more airflow around the buds

Venga familia que ya viene la cosecha de estas finta F1 de ZamnesiaSeeds, que ganas que tenia ya de darles machetazo, me estaban dando muchos quebraderos de cabeza. Las flores no son para nada llamativas, una variedad más cruzada con rudelaris, que para mi gusto es perder el tiempo y el dinero invertido en cultivar cosas así… no merece la pena en interior, el ratio de gramo watio se me quedó en 0.5 , de los no peores resultados que tuve en los últimos 5 años. a sido una genética con la que no disfruté nada cultivarla, es complicada, es bastante sensible. Las plantas en sí se quedaron enanas y para nada fue lo que esperaba, me recordaron a las autos que plantaba en el 2012… Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Hasta aquí es todo , espero que lo disfrutéis, buenos humos 💨💨.

So, eventful week. Prior to putting my seeds into my system, my light and rdwc system was left on as I was dialling in the growing environment before placing the seeds as a final home. My only issue was I had a light leak BEFORE putting the foil top covers on the clay pebbles. Long story short, I got algae which ended up turning to root rot. I spotted it very swiftly and did a res change adding beneficial bacteria to the system along with the base products of remo nutrients. A few days later new growth and recovery is taking place. Day 16- Fully back on track, new roots shooting out into the water and the growth rate has picked up as it should. Foliar feeding twice a day for a little boost until the root system establishes a bit more. Huge changes in just a day. Can't wait to see what a week's growth looks like. Really loving the sunset/sunrise feature on the trolmaster, something I got to experience watching recently! Watching by closely to make sure everything stays in track. Stay tuned for the next one 😉
