💜 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno B Week 5 | Small in Height, Big in Character Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of my favourite parts of running a multi-phenotype hunt is watching each plant develop its own personality. Today’s spotlight belongs to Purple Haze – Pheno B, a plant that may not be the tallest in the room but is certainly one of the fullest. While her sister has been reaching for the sky with long internodes and elegant structure, this lady has chosen a completely different path. She’s staying compact. She’s staying bushy. And she’s absolutely beautiful because of it. ⸻ 🌱 The Journey So Far For anyone joining this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed method. Instead of allowing a traditional vegetative period, every seed was placed under a 12-hour light / 12-hour dark cycle from the very first day. The objective is to compare how different genetics—and even different phenotypes from the same variety—express themselves when grown under identical conditions. Every plant shares: • The same environment • The same lighting • The same feeding schedule • The same climate • The same care The only thing changing is the genetics. Purple Haze Pheno B is another perfect reminder that even sisters can grow into completely different individuals. ⸻ 🌿 A Compact Beauty Standing at around 69 cm, she’s just slightly shorter than her sister, but the difference in structure is immediately noticeable. Rather than stretching upwards, she’s invested her energy into building a dense, leafy canopy packed with healthy growth. She’s become one of the bushiest plants in the room. Every branch is surrounded by large, vibrant fan leaves that give the plant a full and vigorous appearance. Instead of chasing height, she’s building substance. It’s a completely different expression of the same genetics, and it’s fascinating to watch. ⸻ 🍃 Leaf Tucking to Open the Canopy With such dense growth, this week focused heavily on leaf tucking. Instead of removing healthy foliage, large fan leaves were carefully repositioned to expose developing branches underneath. This simple technique improves airflow while allowing more light to reach the future flowering sites without sacrificing valuable photosynthetic surface. The result is a plant that remains lush and healthy while giving every branch the opportunity to develop. Sometimes patience and gentle guidance achieve more than aggressive pruning. ⸻ 🌸 The First Steps Into Flower Although she’s a little behind some of the other ladies in the room, she’s now clearly entering that exciting transition between vegetative growth and flowering. Fresh pistils are beginning to appear. New growth has changed shape. The tops are starting to build. Whether we call it pre-flower or the very beginning of flower, the important part is that she’s moving forward beautifully. There has never been any rush in this project. Every phenotype follows its own pace, and that’s exactly what makes documenting each one so rewarding. ⸻ 💧 Hand-Fed With Care Unlike some of her neighbours, this Purple Haze is not growing in an AutoPot system. Every watering is done by hand, allowing me to closely monitor her development and adjust as needed. Current nutrition includes: • Terra Grow • Terra Bloom • Pure Zym • Sugar Royal • Power Roots • Power Buds • pH adjustment for optimal nutrient availability She’s responding very well to the feeding program, maintaining deep green foliage, healthy growth, and plenty of energy as she begins her flowering journey. ⸻ 🌡️ Stable Conditions, Happy Plants Like every plant in this room, Purple Haze Pheno B continues growing under carefully controlled environmental conditions. Current grow room conditions include: • Day temperature: 31.1°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 72% • Solution temperature: 24.2°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 636 ppm Maintaining consistent environmental conditions allows every phenotype to express its own natural characteristics without unnecessary external variables influencing the results. ⸻ 📷 This Week’s Gallery This week’s photographs really capture the personality of this phenotype. The studio shots showcase her compact, rounded structure, while the close-ups reveal healthy new growth emerging from every corner of the canopy. The overhead photographs make it easy to appreciate just how dense she’s becoming, with broad fan leaves creating a thick blanket of vibrant green. The leaf-tucking work is also clearly visible, opening small windows of light throughout the plant and encouraging future flowering sites to develop evenly. The room updates continue documenting the environment shared by all the ladies in this project, helping tell the complete story behind the grow. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead The next couple of weeks should be incredibly interesting. Now that she’s entering flower, I’m curious to see whether she’ll begin stretching like her sister or continue building this wonderfully compact architecture. Either outcome would be exciting. Right now, she’s developing exactly the way a healthy, vigorous plant should. The foundations are there. Now it’s time to see how she transforms them into flowers. ⸻ 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Every diary tells a different story, and sharing the unique personality of each phenotype is one of the most enjoyable parts of this journey. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing an incredible platform where growers from around the world can learn, inspire one another, and document every stage of their grows. Zamnesia for providing the genetics that make this phenotype hunt possible. 🌱 Plagron for supplying the nutrition supporting these plants from seed to harvest. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light that powers this room every single day. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable environment throughout the entire project. And finally, thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, asking questions, and sharing this adventure with me. Every phenotype deserves its own moment to shine, and Purple Haze Pheno B is proving that sometimes the biggest personalities don’t always belong to the tallest plants. Growers Love and her story is only just beginning. 💜🌿

📆 Semana 11 Fase final completa, con cogollos totalmente formados, muy duros y en su máxima densidad. La resina está en su punto más alto, con tricomas mayoritariamente lechosos y cada vez más ámbar, marcando la ventana óptima de corte. La planta ya no crece y centra todo en la maduración final, intensificando terpenos y aroma, ahora más profundo y persistente. Aparece un ligero desgaste en hojas grandes, señal del consumo de reservas antes del lavado de raíces. Cultivo estable, limpio y listo para el cierre. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Eccoci qua alle prime due settimane di roe fioritura, è più piccolina ma ho dovuta per forza mandarla in fioritura altrimenti la sorella sarebbe diventata troppo alta per una box così bassa, quindi verrà un attimo più piccola della sorella, ma ha lo stesso vigore, la stessa voglia di crescere e mostrare tutte le sue potenzialità di questa genetica CBD davvero impressionante! Merito soprattutto dei nutrienti di Terra Aquatica, che stanno facendo la differenza, una crescita veloce senza carenze e un stelo davvero grosso e resistente, mi aspetto delle belle cime piene di resina di CBD di questa erba cosiddetta cannabis "light" che nel mio paese l Italia, è appena diventata illegale pure lei! Che tristezza, ma io me ne sbatto e continuo per la mia strada, questa è la mia passione e nessuno mi fermerà, anche se sono considerato come un criminale, in realtà è lo stesso stato che tenendo questa pianta miracolosa illegale è collusa con la mafia e con le case farmaceutiche, quindi è lo stesso stato criminale, non io di sicuro xke cerco di curarmi con un prodotto naturale! Garzie a tutti voi che mi seguite spero di continuare su questa strada senza avere problemi e spero che nonostante nn sono molto presente, vi piacciano i miei diari e le mie foto! Un buon 420 a tutti! 💪😸👌🌱🌿🧑‍🌾😽💨🔥🔥❤️❤️

420 Fastbuds Week 6 Amnesia Zkittlez Auto Hello grow fam. Week 6 update on these two. Both are doing amazing in every way. The taller one is flowering like no other. The smaller one isn't to far behind. I decided to add 1Tsp/gal of General Hydroponics 3 part Flora series for an added boost if they happen to need it. It's got a lot colder in my neck of the woods getting down to the 30'f at night so keeping the Temps up in the tent is always a battle but so far they're enduring OK. All in all Happy Growing

Plants are separated. Got the Sour Wiz in the closet vegging out for another 20 days. Got the northern lights and Skywalker Og in the tent flowering. Only thing I dislike is the fact that I had to move the one light out of tent to continue veg and now the flowering plants don’t have that extra light boost for another’s 20 days. KEEP in tune !!!

Week 14 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers This girl has absolutely loved the rain😇 It was very heavy rain too so the pot is easily saturated... honestly don't remember the last time i had to water her😂 was maybe 3/4 weeks ago & don't plan on doing so any time soon either. I tried to defoliate a little because she's getting overly bushy but found to be harder to do than i expected need her to gain some height so i can easily spot what to remove. Even though she looks sad after being sprayed down with water it will benefit her in the long run toughening up her branches from the weight when it comes to flower time. Need to measure her but she's not too far from the 2meters wide mark i was aiming for. No pest issues think the predator spiders are taking care of that for me😎

Le Bilan d'une Session Mémorable & Remerciements ​Une culture d'une grande facilité : Babouch s'est révélée être une plante très facile à cultiver. Malgré quelques erreurs totalement involontaires en cours de route – notamment un pH monté trop haut à cause du bulleur ou les fortes chaleurs causées par les lampes trop proches (liées à sa grande taille) combinées aux températures extérieures – elle a tout supporté avec une résistance incroyable. Le système Autopot a fonctionné à merveille, maintenant la plante saine et en excellente santé tout au long de sa vie. Elle a su offrir de magnifiques têtes bien denses malgré les excès de température. ​Le défi de la manucure finale (Défoliation) : La défoliation finale avant séchage a été particulièrement compliquée. À cause de sa forte densité et de sa forme en foxtailing (queues de renard), retirer les petites et grandes feuilles incrustées au cœur des têtes s'est transformé en un travail de précision. beaucoup de temps passé a retiré 6 heures de travail à la main .Beaucoup de "monofolioles" (feuilles à une seule pale) s'étaient formées à l'intérieur même des buds, une réaction typique de la plante face au stress thermique pour essayer de transpirer et de se refroidir. ​Conclusion : Je ne pouvais vraiment pas rêver mieux pour cette session. Par sa structure, sa résilience et ses arômes, Babouch reste l'une de mes variétés préférées à ce jour. ​📣 Remerciements Finaux ​Un immense merci à Fast Buds pour cette génétique incroyable qui m'a permis de travailler cette magnifique F2. ​Un grand merci à Biotabs pour leurs engrais formidables et si simples à utiliser au quotidien, ainsi qu'à @MIA_BIOTABS et @Mrs_Larimar pour leur présence et leurs précieux conseils tout au long de l'aventure. ​Je tiens à remercier chaleureusement @Dryrocket pour l'opportunité et la chance d'expérimenter leur appareil de séchage Dryrocket. Babouch n'a malheureusement pas pu attendre plus longtemps dans le noir et a dû être coupée hier, mais j'espère recevoir l'appareil aujourd'hui ou demain pour y installer ses têtes de Frostbanger ! ​Enfin, merci à tout le monde, à toute la communauté qui a suivi, commenté et fait vivre ce journal du début à la fin ! J'espère qu'il vous à plus . Malheureusement se sera la dernière jusqu'au 1 septembre. les vacances approchent à grans pas et je n'aurais plus le temps de refaire une nouvelle culture. Mais je vous réserve pleins de surprises pour la rentrée. BONNE VACANCES À TOUS .

Petite mise à jour ! La canicule commence à vraiment se faire sentir. Je vois que les plantes cherchent l'eau... Je leurs ai donné 4 litres d'eau + engrais par plante aujourd'hui. C'est bien d'avoir un point d'eau proche dans ce cas ! (rivière) Un Orage serait vraiment bienvenu pour recharger le sol argileux en eau/humidité, prions ensemble...🕯️😊 Les sativas Nigerian ralentissent leurs croissance par manque d'eau. Les floraisons ne sont pas vraiment enclenchées, même si on distingues les pistils femelle d'une sur trois. Les Frosty's Freak continuent leurs floraisons. Celle en extérieur commence à se teinter en violet. Celle sur la terrasse arbore de jolies buds compactes et lourdes, yum yum yummy ! Les deux plantes sont odorantes ! Peace, bon grow !

Hi meine lieben, 🤗 auch ich bin beim Eternity Cup 2026 dabei 🙌 und das auch noch mit einem neuem Grow Setup...😇 Bin das erste mal dabei und freue mich schon sehr darauf, aber bin auch das erstemal ziemlich nervös... drückt mir die grünen daumen, damit nichts schief geht. Und ein Riesen Dankeschön an Plagron und Zamnesia für dieses geniale Event 😍👊 _______________________________________________________________ Willkommen in der Keim-Phase meiner Sticky Broccoli 🥦!!! Wie mein Ablauf in dieser Woche genau aussah, habe ich hier für uns Dokumentiert. Ich wünsche dir viel Spaß & Happy Growing 🌱🤗: _______________________________________________________________ Ich starte den Keimprozess mit der Wasserglas Methode. Dafür nutze ich die Cannakan mit 50ml Wasserstoffperoxid 3% Lösung und 150ml Leitungswasse. Im Verhältnis 1:3 Nach den ersten 12 Stunden habe ich die Samen untergetaucht und nach insgesamt 36 Stunden ist er schön gekeimt und für die nächste Phase bereit. (Siehe Fotos👆)
