Hello dear growers! The Critical+ one is on the Ripen from the middle of this week, 5ml/l has been used. So i am about to feed her with Ripen tea one more week, then water and. finally harvest time 💪 As about California Hash Plant, will be used the same but with an extra week of flowering on GHE nutrients 😋 Keep going! Peace!

Week 11 July 16-22 hello friends and followers, welcome to week 11. I started seeing trichomes last week on Gaia and Circe. I don't smell anything from them. Only cream caramel gives off any fragrance. After flushing for 3 weeks, I've reintroduced fertilizer. I am using 1/3 to 1/4 the recommended dosage. How do I know what is the correct range for ec and whether I've unlocked the nutritional bind.? 7/16 flushed each with 1 gallon of water. 7/17 flushed each with 1 gal 7/18 fertilized at reduced strength each got 3.5 liters. Tps1 15ml, cal mag 1 top, big bloom 6 tbsp, signal 2.5 ml. Pictures and video. 7/19 no water, tent cleaning day, vacuum, wipe up dried spills. Took the girls outside for a few hours. 7/20 reduced fertilizer in 2 gals Tps1 7.5 ml, signal 1.25ml. Each girl got only 2 liters today. There was very little run off only Gaia with EC .80, ppm 570. Their tent mate cream caramel is very sticky and fragrant. This week has been very busy. I packed up more geneology albums and shipped to my sister. I found my some of grandmother's award winning photographs and awards, certificates and brass plaques. Until WWII women did not work outside the home. If they did, they were teachers, nurses or secretaries. During the early 1920-40 she raised her son as a single mother and found work during the depression as an executive secretary. Her family men were bankers and merchants so she had awareness of business practices. During her employ, she won an award of $2 for a human resource suggestion on the proper attire for women in the offices and women on the manufacturing lines. She continued working until the 50s. Her family always had cameras . That's how i have so many pictures from 1900. But she immersed herself in photography once she retired.. So when my Dad was in post WWII Japan, he bought her a state of the art camera. I came across so many self photos. She was the queen of selfies. Interesting to see the fashions over the years. Let me know if you would like to see some fashion pics. 7/21 made cookies. See week 1 Natronas recipes. The almond flour cookie is the basic recipe for cookies. The r3cipe calls for chocolate chips but It is versatile in that you can add nuts, dried fruit, caramels etc. If you want to taste my cookies the way I make them, you have to chop Lindt 78% dark chocolate bars and use that instead of chips which are sweeter.This time I added macadamia nuts as well. Yummy. 7/22 light defoiliation , and no water or nutrients.

Coming along, for got to put calmag in prior feeding.

🍑 Passion Fruitz by Zamnesia Week 10 | The Slow Girl Is Stealing the Spotlight 👑🍑🌿 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 Well... I think we may need to have a little conversation with Passion Fruitz. Because last week, she was still the girl who refused to hurry. This week? She has apparently decided to make up for lost time. 😂🍑 And honestly... WOW. Look at her. Deep, dark green foliage. Beautiful blue-green tones appearing through the leaves. Big leaves. Beautiful flowering sites. Buds developing all over the plant. And an overall appearance that has me standing there thinking: "Okay, girl... I see you." 👀🍑 She may have spent weeks making us wait... but now she's starting to look like she has something to prove. And I absolutely love it. 🍑 From Slowest Girl to Spotlight Thief If you've been following Passion Fruitz from the beginning, you already know her story. She was the slow girl. The patient girl. The one who looked at the flowering calendar and basically said: "That's nice. I'm working on my own schedule." 😂 She took her time transitioning. She made us wait. She made us wonder. And honestly, she probably made me say: "Come on, girl..." more than once. 😂 But now? I'm not asking her to hurry anymore. Because she's showing us exactly what she was preparing for. She's flowering. She's building. And she's doing it beautifully. The plant has completely changed the feeling of her story. We're no longer watching a girl waiting to decide what she wants to do. We're watching a girl that has decided. She's flowering. And she's going for it. 🌿 That Green... Let's start with the obvious. Because you don't need me to tell you what the photographs are already showing. Look at that foliage. That deep, rich, dark green is absolutely gorgeous. And there's something else I really like this week: those subtle blue-green tones appearing through some of the leaves. That combination gives her an incredible visual character. She's lush. She's vibrant. She's full. And she's carrying some seriously impressive leaves. This is one of those plants where you can stand back and appreciate the whole structure... but then you get closer and realize: there's even more happening. Big leaves. New growth. Flowering sites. Developing buds. And more flowers appearing throughout the plant. She's looking fantastic. 🌸 And Now... Look at the Buds This is the part I've been waiting to see. Flower formation is happening everywhere. And I'm really enjoying the way she's developing. The flowering sites are becoming much more obvious now, and we're starting to see the plant's energy shifting toward those developing flowers. They're not just tiny points of growth anymore. They're becoming recognizable structures. They're starting to give the plant that unmistakable flowering personality. And there are buds all over the place. Top. Middle. Throughout the structure. Everywhere I look, she's giving me another little reason to smile. 🍑🌸 And honestly? For a girl who spent so long telling us to be patient... she's doing a pretty good job of making the waiting worthwhile. 👑 Is Passion Fruitz Coming for the Crown? Now this is where things get interesting. Because we're running a whole room full of personalities. Every plant has its own story. Every phenotype has its own strengths. And every week, someone seems to step forward and say: "Maybe I'm the one." 😂👑 Well... Passion Fruitz has definitely stepped forward. She's looking amazing. She's lush. She's dark. She's developing beautiful flowers. She's got enormous leaves. She's got flowering sites everywhere. And she's becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. But I'm not giving her the crown yet. Not yet. Because the 8×8 Adventure isn't finished. We've still got a whole room full of girls competing for our attention. And that's what makes this so much fun. Right now? They all have the crown. 👑 Every phenotype has something special. But Passion Fruitz... oh my God. She's making a very serious argument for hers. 😂🍑👑 🌱 The Girl Has Found Her Rhythm This is probably the biggest difference I see compared with the previous updates. She feels settled. Earlier, the big question was: "When are you actually going to flower?" Now that question has disappeared. She's answered it. She's flowering. She's building. She's developing. And she's doing it with an incredible amount of foliage supporting that process. The plant has spent a long time establishing herself. And now we're getting to see the result. It's almost like she was quietly saying: "Just wait. You'll see." Well... I'm seeing it now. 😂 🍃 Big Leaves, Big Potential One of the characteristics I've always liked about this phenotype is those large leaves. And now they're creating such a beautiful contrast with the developing flowers. You've got these big, dark fan leaves surrounding the flowering sites, creating this incredibly lush appearance. When I look at her, I don't see a plant that's struggling to find her way. I see a plant that has built a substantial framework and is now putting that framework to work. And that makes me very curious about what she'll look like as flowering progresses even further. Because if this is where we're at now... what happens next? 🍑👀 That's the fun part. 💡 Catching Every Photon And just like the other girls in this room, Passion Fruitz is making use of the environment we've created. Those big leaves aren't just beautiful to look at. They're part of the plant's engine. They're positioned throughout her structure, intercepting the available light and supporting the plant's ongoing development. The room continues to provide the same overall lighting philosophy we've been using throughout the run. And she's clearly making use of it. She's not hiding. She's not wasting the opportunity. She's presenting leaves to the light... and turning that energy into growth. She's catching photons wherever she can. 💡🌿 And judging by how she's looking right now... she's catching plenty. 🌿 Same Room. Different Personalities. This is still one of my favourite parts of the entire 8×8 Adventure. We're not giving every plant a completely different world. We're providing a consistent foundation. Same room. Same general environmental strategy. Same lighting philosophy. Same irrigation system. Same overall feeding approach. And then we watch. And what do we get? Completely different personalities. Some stretch. Some stay compact. Some are hungry. Some are relaxed. Some are incredibly aromatic. Some take forever to flower. And then... there's Passion Fruitz. She spent half the story making us wait... and now she's trying to steal everybody else's spotlight. 😂🍑 That's phenotype hunting. And I wouldn't change it for anything. ⚗️ Feeding – No Complaints Here The room continues following the established flowering nutrition strategy: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ Lemon Kick / pH adjustment as required Current readings remain approximately: ⚗️ pH – 6.0 ⚡ EC – 2.0 mS/cm And honestly... I have no complaints about this girl. She's looking lush. She's growing beautifully. She's developing flowers. She's maintaining that deep colour. She's producing new growth. Everything I'm seeing from the plant is telling me: "Keep doing what you're doing." So that's exactly what we're doing. Consistency. Observation. Patience. And letting her show us what she's capable of. 🌡️ The Environment The room continues to run under stable conditions: 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: approximately 6.0 ⚡ EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm 💦 Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 💨 CO₂: approximately 636 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 💧 Watering: approximately 1.3 L/plant/24h And again, that consistency is important. Because when one phenotype suddenly starts looking this impressive, we can appreciate that we're seeing her expression within the same broader environment as everyone else. That's the experiment. We create the stage. The genetics write the performance. And Passion Fruitz is starting to put on quite a show. 📸 Behind the Lens This girl is becoming an absolute pleasure to photograph. There is so much texture in her right now. The dark foliage. The blue-green tones. The large leaves. The emerging flowers. The little details appearing everywhere. And every photograph seems to reveal another part of the plant. This is also why I love photographing the same plant week after week. You don't always notice gradual changes when you're looking at her every day. But put the photographs side by side? Suddenly... there she is. The difference becomes obvious. The structure has changed. The flowers have developed. The plant has matured. And the story has moved forward. Photography freezes the moment. The diary connects the moments. And Passion Fruitz is giving us some beautiful moments right now. 📸🍑💚 👑 Everyone Has a Crown I keep coming back to this because it's becoming increasingly difficult to choose favourites. 😂 One week, someone else steals the show. Then another plant decides she's going to be the star. Now Passion Fruitz has walked onto the stage with those enormous dark leaves and beautiful developing flowers and said: "Move over." 😂🍑👑 But here's the thing. I don't actually want one winner yet. Not now. They're all showing us something different. They're all expressing themselves differently. And they're all contributing to the story of this run. So for now... every girl gets a crown. 👑👑👑👑👑 We'll see who still has hers when we reach the finish line. 🔍 What Am I Watching Now? My questions for Passion Fruitz have completely changed. I'm no longer asking: "When will she start flowering?" She has answered that. Now I'm asking: How far is she going to take this? How much will those developing flowers build? How will that beautiful dark foliage evolve as flowering progresses? How much more structure will appear? How will the buds develop from here? And perhaps the most exciting question: Can this girl really steal the crown from the rest of the room? 😂👑🍑 I don't know. But she's certainly making the competition interesting. 🍑 From Patience to Potential Looking back at her previous updates makes this week even more satisfying. For so long, Passion Fruitz was the plant we had to explain. "She's slow." "She's taking her time." "She's still transitioning." "Let's wait." And now? We don't need to explain anything. Just look at her. She's saying it herself. I'm here. And she looks beautiful. That's one of my favourite things about growing. Sometimes patience isn't passive. Sometimes you're simply waiting for the plant to reveal what it has been building all along. And Passion Fruitz may have been doing exactly that. 🌸 The Story Is Just Getting Started Even though we're already at Week 10, I feel like this is actually the beginning of a very interesting chapter for her. The plant has established her identity. The flowers are clearly forming. The structure is beautiful. The foliage is spectacular. And now we get to watch the flowering development continue. That's where the real curiosity begins. Because we know what she looks like today. But we don't know what she'll look like after several more weeks of development. And that's why I'm keeping the camera ready. 🍑📸 Something tells me we're going to have some fun with this girl. 🔮 Looking Ahead So what's next for Passion Fruitz? More observation. More photography. More flower development. More waiting... although hopefully not the three-week "almost flowering" waiting game again. 😂 She's finally moving. She's finally showing us what she's capable of. And I'm very happy to simply watch her continue. No unnecessary forcing. No trying to turn her into another phenotype. She's already showing us exactly who she is. And right now... I really like who she is. 🍑 Week 10 – The Spotlight Is Getting Crowded So here we are. Passion Fruitz. Week 10. The girl who refused to hurry. The girl who made us wait. The girl who spent weeks quietly building her foundation. And now... look at her. 🌿 Deep green. 💙 Beautiful blue-green tones. 🍃 Huge leaves. 🌸 Flowering sites everywhere. 🍑 Beautiful bud formation. 👑 And an attitude that says she may be coming for the crown. I genuinely have no complaints. None. She's growing beautifully. She's looking incredibly healthy. She's developing exactly the kind of flowering structure that makes me excited to see what happens next. And honestly? She's amazing. So let's give her what she deserves. The spotlight. The camera. The crown. At least for this week. 😂👑📸 Because next week... someone else might come along and try to steal it. That's the beauty of the 8×8 Adventure. Nobody gets to keep the spotlight forever. 🙏 Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 Every week, this project becomes a little more interesting. Twelve genetic stories. More than twenty plants. One shared ecosystem. And completely different personalities emerging right in front of us. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a place to document these journeys, compare experiences and learn together. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Passion Fruitz genetics and for giving us another fascinating phenotype to follow. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting the garden. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for keeping the photons flying. Thank you to LumiFlora for helping illuminate those deeper areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us keep the environment consistent behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person who takes a few minutes to stop and look at these girls. Thank you. 💚 And Passion Fruitz? Well... you spent weeks telling us to be patient. Now you've got our attention. 😂🍑👑 You're lush. You're dark green. You're showing beautiful blue-green tones. You've got enormous leaves. You've got flowers developing everywhere. And you're looking absolutely incredible. So yes... take the spotlight, girl. Enjoy it. Because around here, the crown is never guaranteed. For now, though? Passion Fruitz has earned her moment. 👑🍑🌿 Let's see where she takes us. Let's see whether she can keep that crown. And let's see what happens when this slow girl finally decides to show us just how much she's been holding back. Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle... where the crowns are temporary, the genetics are unpredictable, and Passion Fruitz is suddenly looking like she has something very serious to say. 🍑👑🔥

End of week 4 a lot of trichomes are visible now even in fan leaves!!

Had an issue this week with a fsn getting unplugged and the tent was extremely hot for several hours. Some of the top buds even got cooked. I took off thendesd material at the top and I'm hoping for a speedy recovery.

This is my Northern Lights i got in a freebie pack quite a while ago. I planted it in my veg room for kicks as i have never been interested in growing an auto. Im lucky enough to have two tents so I use my Veg room for experiments and cloning as well. As you can see even though I germed it a week after my Blue Dream (check my diary :)) it quickly turned into this monster. SO For your pleasure I present my first Auto, lets see how she does!

all iz good in da hood

Day 43 a new week starts 💪😃👍 Day 44 every single Day a little bit more 😋🙏👍 Day 45 the queens doing well 😃👍

🙊 48hr of dark

Ich habe die Pflanzen erfolgreich in größere Töpfe umgesetzt. Alle Ladys sind nun in 6-Liter-Töpfen mit BioBizz All-Mix untergebracht. Der Umzug verlief reibungslos, die Wurzeln sahen gesund und kräftig aus – ein gutes Zeichen für ein solides Fundament. Seit dem Umtopfen zeigen die Pflanzen ein gutes Wachstum. Der All-Mix scheint gut angeschlagen zu haben, erste Anzeichen von Nährstoffaufnahme sind sichtbar: sattes Grün, aufrechte Blätter und ein insgesamt vitaler Eindruck. Gießen erfolgt aktuell noch moderat, da der All-Mix gut vorgedüngt ist. Ich beobachte die Entwicklung genau, halte Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit stabil und freue mich auf die weitere Wachstumsphase.

FLOWER WEEK 1 ⭐️Nutrients Used⭐️ Front Row AG Si .5g per gallon Front Row AG Part A 3.3g per gallon Front Row AG Part B 2.2g per gallon Front Row AG Phoszyme .4g per gallon Front Row AG Bloom 2.6g per gallon Front Row AG CleanUp .3g per gallon This has been a great week. Some of the basics are coming together. Lights have been gradually raised by 5-10% every day except the last 2 days. By the end of week 2 flower they will be 100% and will stay there until last week of flower. Temp is 80 degrees, humidity is 60% and will also stay that way until the last 10 days of flower. I will go another week of tucking branches under the net to try and let the last plant reach the net. It’s just not stretching like the others. I need at least a week of stretch with vertical growth, so my smallest plant needs to catch up. There has to be 300+ tops in this 4x12 area. Every single node was topped 7-10 days before flower. Each branch has multiple nodes now. Between day 14-25 everything under the net will be removed. Clones were taken of every plant for a hopeful keeper pheno. Gonna try the whole “mother plant full clone run” for the next grow. By the end of week 2 parameters will be 1500ppm co2 1200-1500 ppfd 80 degrees 60% humidity Thanks for all the support and see you next week.

Wednesday 27.04.22 Day 1 Recieved package and placed the seeds in water. 6 coco pellets are soaking in a mild root solution. Tuesday 3.05 Day 6 All seeds have sprouted, transplant sometime this week.

The cherry's are doing great and they look phenomenal 👌 With their next transplant to 7gal airpots, i gonna put 1 in plagron bat-mix combined with the bio tabs range for optimal taste👌

4/16/19 Start of a new week with a dry day. 4/17/19 Watered today, also added an extra cal mag feeding noticed on one of the bigger fan leaves some slight calcium def. honestly may not be new but we’re taking precautions anyway. 4/20/19 noticed cal mag deficiency upped the cal mag. She’s hungry!! Bud production is in full swing, the purple is really starting to shine now. If only I could get a good picture of it.

5/7 Week 3! This is our first CBD Crack grown in coco and she is showing wonderful color, form, and size for only 14 days up. Very happy with this so far even if the delay does present some issues. She just so pretty! 5/9 She is just exploding, a full inch of height and girth in one day. No hairs yet, increasing nuets tomorrow 20%. 5/10 Nuets increased Raised her base up to get better light, think she has fully acclimated by now. 5/11 She has grown another node and another inch in one day! The reward for what we did yesterday, she wanted more light and nuets. Will leave things as they are for now. 5/12 Just call her "Inch a Day" a that is her growth rate. Training her today, Pony Tailing LST First hairs visible so folding in a light dose of Bloom 5/13 10 inches wow First cycle of pony tailing was productive though she still tacked on over an inch in 24 hrs. Secondary growth tips grew a lot during the process and expect tonight to be even more productive. Node spacing is about one inch so perfect now
