Grew. But not much. Lol.

We’re officially in the final week for my Strawberry Gorilla Automatic from Fast Buds! 🌟 This beautiful girl has had a very quick flowering phase, but looking at the trichomes, they’re right where they need to be so no complaints! She will be flushed throughout this week and then harvested and hung up to dry next week. I’m super happy with how she’s developed!😋

2 screws ups 1 fox farms is 2 hot switching to roots organic 2 the pot I put her in cracked when I tried to run lst wire threw it so we ended up testing monster cropping for the first time thus her height incredible smell like dank pop tarts I am dying for a test bowl then into the Grove bag she goes for 2 months next videos and pics in new diary will be better looking got another purple and a strawnana from @fastbuds @2fast4buds

Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable theme in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Blue cheese Auto from Royal queen seeds will turn out. Blue Cheese automatic cannabis seeds are a cross of Blueberry Automatic and Cheese Automatic that has been perfected over five years of breeding and careful selection. The result is a feminized, autoflowering strain with superior yield, flavor, and effects to either of its distinguished parent strains. THC: 16% CBD: Low Yield Indoor : 325 - 375 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 60 - 110 gr/plant Height Indoor: 40 - 70 cm Height Outdoor: 60 - 110 cm Flowering: 7 - 8 weeks Harvest month: 9-10 weeks after planting Genetic Background: Blueberry x Cheese x Ruderalis Type: Sa 35% In 40% Ru 25% Effect: Cerebral and uplifting Climate: Mild .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-09-11. Kl 12.00. Week 4 starts. I have cleaned the whole room for the new week and gave the girls water and nutes. Added videos and pics. Girl nr 1 is 27 cm high and girl nr 2 is 50 cm high and nr 3 is 15 cm high. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-12. Kl 10.00. New pics and video. Nr 2 has grown 5 cm in 23 h, its incredible. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-13. Kl 22.00. Everything is great in the garden right now. Updated with new video. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-15. KL 10.00. New pics and videos. Girl Nr 1 is 33 cm high, Nr2 is 70 cm and girl Nr is 22 cm. Nr 2 has grown 20 cm the last 3 days. Look at the stem of girl Nr 2 😍 The girls are starting to smell a lot now. Its a intense smell in the grow room. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-16. Kl 10.00. The girls grow like crazy, i have to defoliate about 20 leafs a day. Nr 2 is 76 cm tall now, i wonder when she slows down?. Added 2 liters of water and nutes this morning and 2 new videos. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-09-17. Made a time laps of the girls first 28 days.

Transplanted to five gallon pots, began low stress training.

The 2nd week passed with a bit of a hitch, because the girl is still small and she doesn't emit any smell, I hadn't turned on the ventilation filter, as a result I saw that the trunk was full of condensation - 100% humidity..... but I probably noticed in time and turned on the ventilation, the humidity decreased, and everything is going smoothly now, on the 14th day the main ring was cut so that the girl wouldn't think of being taller and I wouldn't have problems with the growing space, which is already small :) good luck to everyone.

Parfait elle se comporte bien les bourgeons gonfles énormément. Une odeur fruité se dégage de la tente.Les engrais bio RQS organic sont excellents elles font un super travail sans excès ni de carence. Rajout de guano au dessus du terreau pour l'explosion floral ☠️☠️ a bientôt pour plus d'informations.

💜 Purple CousKush Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B | Week 8 (Flower Week 5) 🌱 Quiet Confidence Is Becoming Something Beautiful Every grow has plants that demand your attention. They stretch. They fill the room. They need training. They need cleaning. They seem to constantly ask you to do something. And then there are plants like this Purple CousKush. She doesn't ask for much. She simply keeps growing. Quietly. Elegantly. And somehow, every time I look at her, I like her a little more. Standing at approximately 96 cm, she isn't the tallest plant in the 8×8 Adventure. She isn't trying to become one either. But the way she's developing is something I genuinely appreciate. The structure is balanced. The flowers are forming beautifully. The canopy has enough space. The plant looks healthy. And most importantly... she looks comfortable. Sometimes that's all the confirmation a grower needs. 🌸 Week 8 – Beauty Without Force One of the biggest lessons this entire project continues teaching me is that there isn't one correct way for a plant to grow. We're running multiple genetics side by side, under the same general environment, the same lighting strategy, the same nutrition and the same cultivation philosophy. Yet every phenotype interprets that environment differently. Some stretch. Some stay compact. Some build massive central colas. Some create dozens of smaller flowering towers. And this Purple CousKush has chosen something in between. She's building a wonderfully balanced structure where the flowering sites are distributed naturally throughout the plant. Nothing looks forced. Nothing looks crowded. Nothing looks like it needs fixing. And that last part is important. Not everything needs fixing. 🌿 No Defoliation This Week This is one of those weeks where I decided to simply leave her alone. She was part of the same general flowering period where other plants in the room received a selective defoliation. But when I looked at her... I didn't see a compelling reason to do it. The canopy isn't excessively congested. The flowering sites are developing nicely. There is enough space between the branches. Air can move through the structure. Light can reach the flowers. And the leaves that remain are healthy and actively contributing to the plant. So why remove them? Just because we can doesn't mean we should. That's something I've learned more and more throughout this project. Defoliation is a tool. It's not a requirement. If a plant already has a good balance between foliage, airflow, light penetration and flowering sites, sometimes the best intervention is no intervention at all. And that's exactly what I chose for this lady. She's doing beautifully. So I'm letting her continue doing beautifully. 🌸 The Flowers Are Writing Her Story And this is where she really starts to shine. The developing flowers are becoming much more defined now. The bright pistils continue emerging across the flowering sites, while the individual buds are beginning to take on more substance. Looking through the canopy, you can see the plant beginning to transition from early flower formation into proper flower development. The structure she built earlier is now becoming the framework supporting all of this. Every branch has a purpose. Every flowering site has room. And the overall shape of the plant gives the impression that she knows exactly what she's doing. I particularly like how the flowers are distributed across the branches. They're not hidden inside a dense wall of foliage. They're sitting there in the light, developing naturally. And that's beautiful to watch. 💜 Small Doesn't Mean Small Potential This is another thing I've come to appreciate during this 8×8 Adventure. When we talk about plants being "big" or "small", we're usually talking about height or physical volume. But those measurements don't necessarily tell the whole story. A plant can be relatively modest in size and still use its available space extremely efficiently. This Purple CousKush is a perfect example. At around 96 cm, she isn't dominating the tent. But look at what she's doing with those centimetres. She's building flowering sites throughout her structure. She's maintaining healthy foliage. She's keeping good spacing. She's developing flowers evenly. And she's doing it without needing constant intervention. That's efficiency. And honestly, I really like it. 💡 Letting The Light Work The lighting strategy remains one of the most interesting parts of this entire project. Above the canopy, the Future of Grow Black Series continues providing the main source of intense light. Below, the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting continues helping illuminate areas that would otherwise receive much less direct light. But there's an important distinction here. Under-canopy lighting isn't a reason to keep every tiny lower flowering site on the plant. Light doesn't magically turn every low bud site into a major cola. The plant still decides where it invests its resources. And that's another reason I don't feel the need to remove foliage aggressively just to expose every little piece of the plant. We're watching. We're observing. We're allowing the plant to show us what she can actually do. For now, she's showing us plenty. 🍃 Healthy, Balanced & Comfortable The foliage remains beautifully healthy. The rich green colour continues throughout the plant, while the leaves maintain good posture and structure. The stems are supporting the developing flowers confidently. The plant isn't showing obvious signs that she's struggling with the current environment or feeding program. And perhaps the biggest compliment I can give her is this: She looks relaxed. There is no visible desperation to her growth. No excessive stretch. No overcrowding. No obvious stress. She's simply progressing. Sometimes healthy cultivation looks surprisingly boring. And that's a compliment. 💧 Feeding Program Purple CousKush Pheno B continues receiving the same flowering nutrition program: Terra Bloom — 2.2 ml/L Pure Zym — 1 ml/L Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L Power Buds — 1 ml/L Green Sensation — 1 ml/L pH Plus / Lemon Kick — as required Current targets remain around: pH: 5.8 EC: approximately 1.95 mS/cm She's continuing to accept the program very well. There is no reason to complicate something that's already working. Consistency remains the name of the game. 🌡️ Environment The room continues running with stable conditions: Light schedule: 12/12 Day temperature: 29°C Night temperature: 25°C Relative humidity: 60% Solution temperature: 21°C Root-zone temperature: 21°C CO₂: approximately 639 ppm Pot size: 15 L Watering: approximately 1.1–1.2 L per 24 hours The environmental stability continues giving every phenotype the opportunity to express herself without constantly having to adapt to changing conditions. And that's exactly what we want. The plant should spend her energy growing flowers... Not surviving her environment. 🌱 Same Room. Completely Different Story. This is probably my favourite part of documenting individual phenotypes. Her sister, Purple CousKush Pheno A, has always been more energetic and vertically ambitious. Pheno B is different. She has taken her time. She has built a more restrained structure. She doesn't dominate the canopy. She doesn't demand attention. But now, when you look at her flowers, you can see exactly why she deserves her own diary. She's beautiful. And she's becoming more beautiful every week. This is why I don't like judging phenotypes too early. At the beginning, you see a plant. Then you see a structure. Then you see flowering sites. Then suddenly, somewhere in the middle of flower... you start seeing the phenotype. And I think that's happening right now. 🔍 Looking Ahead The next few weeks should become particularly interesting. The stretch is essentially winding down, which means the plant can increasingly dedicate her resources toward flower development. The flowering sites should continue swelling. The pistils will gradually become less dominant visually as the calyxes gain volume. Resin production should continue increasing. And those beautiful branches she's built should slowly become heavier with flowers. I'm also curious to see whether her compact, balanced architecture translates into equally balanced flowers at harvest. I have a feeling it might. But we're not going to decide that today. We're going to let her finish the story. 💭 Final Thoughts – Sometimes The Best Move Is Doing Nothing This week doesn't have a dramatic lesson. There was no emergency. No major training session. No aggressive cleanup. No big correction. And that's exactly what makes this week special. Sometimes the best thing a grower can do is look at the plant and say: "You're doing great. Carry on." That's where Purple CousKush Pheno B is right now. She's healthy. She's balanced. She's developing beautiful flowers. She's using her space efficiently. She's maintaining excellent structure. And she simply doesn't need me to interfere. So I won't. I'll keep watching. I'll keep feeding. I'll keep watering. I'll keep documenting. And I'll let her show me what she has inside her. Because she may not be the biggest plant in this room. She may not be the tallest. She may not be the loudest. But she's becoming one of the most elegant. And that's a personality worth celebrating. 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for these beautiful Purple CousKush genetics, Plagron for supporting the nutrition throughout this journey, Future of Grow for providing the powerful Black Series lighting above the canopy, Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the lower canopy, TrolMaster for maintaining such a stable environment, and of course everyone following this crazy 8×8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries. Every phenotype has her own story. Some stories are dramatic. Some are explosive. Some surprise us. And some simply become more beautiful every week. This one? She's quietly becoming something special. 💜 No defoliation. No forcing. No unnecessary intervention. Just a beautiful plant doing what she knows how to do. And honestly... I wouldn't change a thing. Until next week... Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💚

Week 4 saw abundant flower growth. There’s a noticeable difference in the size of each bud site compared to last week. Another thing I noticed is that the buds on the branches that were supercropped seem to be fuller and thicker! Started to see increased trichome production on both the sugar and fan leaves. Most growers are against stressing their plants in flower but I believe it depends on the strain you’re growing and how she was prepared in veg. I’m thoroughly impressed with the amount of resiliency she’s shown up to this point. I haven’t seen any indication that the high stress that I’ve put her through towards the end of veg and the beginning of flowering has cost me anything besides an additional week of flower.

Welcome back to my Strawberry Cheesecake diary from seedsman seeds. So we've finished up week 6 and we're in full bloom! She blew up big time and I'm loving it! She stretched out beautifully and we did a little defoliation on the lower leaves to help get some light to those flower sites. All in all, I'm impressed with this auto so far and I'm stoked to see how she produces in these coming weeks. I have some build a flower on the way that we'll be adding in the next day or 2 for some added p and k. Thanks for stopping by

Week 2 flower strain stretched about 5ft from flip to flower.

This is NOT a plant that I would recommend for a beginner she can demand much more attention without reciprocation, which was frustrating for my FIRST EVER grow (woohoo!). She is one that I have had a little bit of trouble growing and others on this site Ive researched have had trouble growing. She is a little more sensitive to nitrogen and other nutrients yet gulps cal-mag.

Questa è la prima GMO che raccolgo, cime molto più dense rispetto alla runtz e sembra essere molto più pesante, tra qualche giorno raccoglierò l'altra e poi mancano solo le due più grandi

This plant just keeps Growing! I took some of the work off the bottom, not much light was getting there because she is so tall!!! Lots of bud sites but they are small, reminding me of my first try. She is drying out quicker now, so it is like every other day getting fed. Hope her buds get bigger!

On day 10 they got first feeding EC 0,6 PH 6.3

Woche 5 - Vorletzte Woche der Vegetation und beeindruckende Entwicklung Die fünfte Woche markierte die vorletzte Vegetationswoche, und die Pflanzen zeigten weiterhin bemerkenswertes Wachstum und Gesundheit. Die Nährstoffe und das Gießschema blieben unverändert, wobei der EC- und pH-Wert sowohl im Drain als auch in der Nährlösung stabil auf optimalem Niveau waren. Die Luftfeuchtigkeit wurde leicht auf 60 % gesenkt, während die Temperatur weiterhin im Bereich von etwa 22 bis 26 Grad blieb. Die Pflanzen setzten ihr Wachstum in beeindruckendem Tempo fort und entwickelten enorme Seitentriebe. SPOILER !!!: Ohne jegliches zusätzliches Training bildeten sich am Ende der Woche 16 bis 18 Hauptnebenbuds sowie jeweils ein zentraler, kräftiger Headbud. Die Genetik dieser Pflanzen erwies sich als absolut außergewöhnlich. ENGLISH Week 5 - Final Week of Vegetation and Remarkable Development The fifth week marked the penultimate week of vegetation, and the plants continued to show remarkable growth and health. The nutrient and watering schedules remained unchanged, with EC and pH levels stable at optimal values, both in the nutrient solution and the drain. Humidity was slightly reduced to 60%, while temperatures stayed in the range of 22 to 26 degrees Celsius. The plants kept growing at an impressive rate and developed enormous side branches. Without any additional training, by the end of the week, they formed 16 to 18 main side buds along with a strong central head bud. The genetics of these plants proved to be absolutely outstanding.
