💜 Purple CousKush Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 9 🌿 No Drama. No Complaints. Just Beautiful Growth. Sometimes a plant gives you a story. Sometimes she gives you a problem to solve. And sometimes... she simply stands there looking absolutely beautiful and gives you nothing to complain about. Purple CousKush Pheno A is having one of those weeks. 💜 After last week's little reminder that even a good grower can occasionally miss a watering window 😂, this girl has completely put that chapter behind her. She's back to doing what she does. Growing. Building. Flowering. And doing it beautifully. The deep greens are still there. The flowering sites continue developing. The structure is looking stronger and more defined every week. And the whole plant has that feeling I love seeing at this stage: She's comfortable. There isn't anything I look at and think needs fixing. There isn't anything screaming for intervention. There isn't anything I want to change just for the sake of changing it. So this week, I'm doing something very simple. I'm stepping back. I'm watching. And I'm letting her shine. 🌸 Week 6 Flower – She's Finding Her Rhythm Purple CousKush Pheno A is now approximately 125 cm tall, and her overall architecture continues to be one of the things I really enjoy about this phenotype. She's tall enough to stand out in the room, but what really catches my attention isn't simply her height. It's the way she's using that structure. The branches are carrying flowering sites beautifully. The central structure continues developing alongside the side branches. And the flowers are becoming increasingly defined throughout the canopy. We're getting deeper into flowering now, and the plant is moving away from the explosive structural development of earlier weeks and increasingly toward flower production. And honestly? I like where she's going. Very much. 🌿 Deep Green & Beautifully Balanced The foliage is one of the first things I notice every time I look at her. That beautiful, deep green colour is still everywhere. The leaves look strong. The canopy looks healthy. And the plant has a very balanced appearance. There's no obvious nutritional drama. No major stress showing in the foliage. No reason for me to start chasing something that isn't actually a problem. She's simply green. Deep green. Healthy green. The kind of green that makes you look at a plant and think: "Yep. She's happy." 😂💚 And that's exactly what I want. 🌸 The Flowers Are Getting Serious The flowering sites continue developing beautifully. The buds are becoming more substantial, and the individual structures are starting to come together into more defined flowering clusters. The pistils remain prominent, creating that beautiful contrast against the darker foliage. And when you look closely, there's more and more happening inside those flowers every week. This is the stage where the plant starts becoming particularly rewarding to photograph. From a distance, you see the structure. Move closer... and suddenly there's another world happening inside every flower. Calyxes. Pistils. Resin. New layers of development appearing week after week. And Purple CousKush is giving us plenty to look at. 💜 The Name Is Starting To Feel Appropriate There's something particularly satisfying about watching a cultivar called Purple CousKush develop. We're obviously not going to write the harvest story before harvest. 😂 But there is already something about her appearance that makes the name feel appropriate. The structure. The flowers. The personality. And the way she's developing deeper into bloom. Whatever colours she ultimately decides to show us later in the journey, I'm perfectly happy to wait. That's another thing I've learned from this project: Don't force the story. Let the plant write it. If she gives us colours, beautiful. If she stays green, beautiful. If she surprises us with something completely different... even better. ✂️ After The Cleanup – Now We Leave Her Alone Last week we gave her a selective cleanup after she recovered from that accidental underwatering. That intervention was about removing unnecessary foliage and opening the structure. This week? Nothing dramatic. No need to go back in with the scissors. No need to keep manipulating her. She's got enough healthy foliage. She's got good flowering structure. She's got space. She's got light. She's got airflow. So now it's time for the most underrated part of cultivation: doing nothing. 😂 Sometimes knowing when to stop touching the plant is just as important as knowing when to intervene. She's doing beautifully. So let her do it. 💡 Let The Plant Use The Photons The Future of Grow Black Series lighting continues providing the primary light from above, with the Lumiflora under-canopy system adding another layer of illumination lower in the plant. At this stage, I'm particularly interested in watching how the flowers respond as they continue developing. The canopy has already been opened enough to improve the movement of light and air through the structure. Now the plant gets to take advantage of that environment. We don't need to constantly manipulate the canopy. The photons are already there. The plant is already capturing them. Now we simply watch what she does with that energy. And so far... she's turning it into some very beautiful flowers. 🌬️ A Balanced Plant Is A Happy Plant One of the things I appreciate most about Purple CousKush right now is the overall balance. The foliage. The structure. The flowering sites. The environment. Everything seems to be working together. That's what I'm looking for. Not perfection. Not some artificial idea of what a plant should look like. Just balance. Enough foliage to support photosynthesis. Enough open space for airflow. Enough light reaching through the structure. Enough flowering sites developing where they can make good use of that environment. And most importantly... a plant that looks like she isn't fighting anything. She's just growing. 🌿 One Week After The Lesson I also have to give this girl some credit. Last week she reminded me that watering mistakes happen. This week she basically said: "Okay. Are we finished talking about that now?" 😂 Yes, ma'am. We're finished. The important part is that she recovered beautifully and hasn't carried that moment forward. The plant is healthy. The flowers are developing. The leaves look excellent. And the overall progression is exactly where I want it. That's another reason I don't believe in panicking when something minor happens. Observe. Correct it. Give the plant time. Then watch. Sometimes the best evidence that everything is okay is simply what the plant does afterward. And Purple CousKush? She's doing just fine. 💧 Nutrition & Irrigation The flowering nutrition program continues without unnecessary changes. We're maintaining the established Plagron flowering approach and continuing to monitor the plant individually rather than changing things simply because another phenotype behaves differently. Current cultivation conditions remain around: 💧 pH: approximately 6.0 ⚡ EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 💦 Watering: approximately 1.3 L per plant / 24h ? Pot: 15 L The biggest change from last week isn't the numbers. It's the observation. After the little watering lesson, I'm paying close attention to her irrigation needs and making sure she doesn't have to ask for another drink quite so dramatically. 😂 Healthy dry-back? Fine. A wilted Purple CousKush waving at me? Message received. 🌡️ Environment The room continues running with the same stable flowering environment: ☀️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% 🌬️ CO₂: approximately 639 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 That consistency is becoming increasingly important as flowering progresses. The plants are now carrying substantial flowering structures, and keeping the environment predictable gives them the best opportunity to continue developing without unnecessary interruptions. Purple CousKush seems perfectly comfortable inside that environment. And when a plant is comfortable... I don't see a reason to complicate things. 🌸 Flowers, Structure & Potential This is where my curiosity really starts increasing. Purple CousKush Pheno A has already built a very respectable framework. Now we're watching that framework become flowers. The branches are carrying increasingly developed sites. The buds are becoming more pronounced. The foliage remains beautifully green. And the overall structure continues looking strong. We're getting closer to the point where the plant's final architecture will become much easier to judge. But we're not there yet. There's still plenty of development ahead. So I'm not going to predict the ending. I'm just going to enjoy watching her get there. 🔬 One Plant, One Phenotype, One Story This is one of the reasons I love documenting every individual plant in the 8×8 Adventure. If I simply photographed the entire room, I'd see a beautiful canopy. But when I isolate Purple CousKush Pheno A... I see her personality. She's energetic. She's tall. She's structurally beautiful. She's developing flowers consistently. And she's remarkably resilient. Last week gave us one little lesson. This week gives us something much simpler: consistency. And sometimes consistency is the most beautiful thing a plant can give you. 🔭 Looking Ahead – Let's See Where She Takes Us Now I'm genuinely curious about the next few weeks. How much more will those flowers swell? How much more resin will develop? How will the pistils progress? Will her colours change as she gets deeper into maturity? How will the final structure reveal itself? And ultimately... what is this particular Purple CousKush phenotype going to give us? I have no idea yet. And that's exactly how I like it. Because the whole point is to watch. Not predict. Not force. Not write the ending before the story is finished. Just watch her move. And she's moving beautifully. 💜 Final Thoughts – No Complaints Whatsoever I think sometimes we growers spend so much time talking about problems that we forget to celebrate the weeks where there simply aren't any. So let's celebrate this one. Purple CousKush Pheno A is doing beautifully. She's got those deep, deep greens I love. She's carrying beautiful flowers. Her bud structure is developing nicely. She's growing consistently. She's recovered completely from last week's little watering lesson. The canopy is balanced. The plant looks comfortable. And honestly... I have no complaints. None. She's simply doing her thing. And she's doing it beautifully. That's all I really want from her right now. Keep growing. Keep building. Keep flowering. Keep showing me what your genetics decided to become. And I'll keep watching. Because every week she gives me another reason to look twice. Purple CousKush Pheno A doesn't need a dramatic story this week. She doesn't need a problem. She doesn't need a big intervention. She just needs her spotlight. And she deserves it. 💜✨ A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for these beautiful Purple CousKush genetics, Plagron for the nutrition, Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting, Lumiflora for bringing additional light beneath the canopy, TrolMaster for environmental control, and of course to everyone following this crazy 8×8 Adventure on GrowDiaries. Every phenotype has her own personality. Every week adds another chapter. And Purple CousKush Pheno A? She's simply moving forward. Beautifully. Consistently. And without giving me anything to complain about. So let's give this girl the spotlight one more time. Deep green. Beautiful flowers. Beautiful structure. No complaints. 💜🌿✨ Until next week... Keep doing your thing, Purple CousKush. I'll be watching. Growers love and happy growing! 🌱💚

I decided to start flowering abit early as my other plants are gaining to be the size I want for this grow . With that being said let the show begin !!! I changed up the nutrient regime quite a bit being that im going to be flowering and all . Other then that these ladies are doing ok and chillen like queens . Big shout out to everyone who stops into the diaries keep on keeping on folks !!! Happy Growing! -V.G Day#1F Watered 1.5 L to #2 and 1/2 L to #1 at 580 PPM Things are growing along. Day#2F Responding well to watering , growing along Day#3F All perky now ! Internode growing along nicely , Im not expecting serious yield but an ok one none the less :) Day#4F Gotta relax on the nutes , Going to do a few flush feedings before serious flowers . Day#5F Going and going #2 is almost the same height as 47#2!! Things are going well ! Flush time real soon Day#6F Pictures N/A Going to be feeding 3L each on day 7 growing along nicely . Day#7F Watered the ladies 3L each going to see how they react ! Recap : They stretched abit this week they are still working on it , Im going to be increasing the amount of water to 4L next feeding , try to amp up the root system to get some good yield off these ladies

Sono molto felice della mia pianta e dei suoi frutti spero in un buon raccolto da secca 😉 io direi di farmi fare altre 3 settimane di fioritura e poi raccogliere. Saluti 🙏🙏

Hey guy and gals, So, I was going to prune the girls tomorrow, but a mate dropped a half over, got stoned and decide, Bugger It!, so we hooked in today. I did take some after shots. Should have done 'before and after, but, I was STONED !' The girls look happier, more sprightly, less 'HEAVY'. Saved the biggest and best fan leaf for a mate. He is amazed at the leaf size. Then earlier today, when he dropped in ;-) , he had a look and near dropped. Big Bud has so many nodes, he was shocked. The FIMing/Topping, whichever I did has done amazing things. On a side note, I haven't grown heaps before, so this grow is amazing me. Previous grows got small buds, small amount, only just covering the cost of my setup (Hydro at the time and tent). I now have a BIGGER tent, am using SOIL and they are thriving. Personally, I think the water is the major factor, but also my 'dedication'. I check the girls 2-3, maybe 5 times a day (viewing port). Regular PH, moisture and such checks. I even put a sticky fly strip in there, as a bloody fly got in. This grow, besides the constant checking, I have Fim'd/Top'd, I have pruned them to promote growth. Basically, I have learned heaps, both from here and videos. I have re-read pretty much everything I read previously, tweaked a little and it seems to be working. Northern Lights is still a week or a bit more away from a prune, I think, then we will give them a couple more weeks and turn them to flower. I am aiming for a Late May/Mid June harvest, then a month in jars to cure. All going well, I will have a heap of and great choice, for my birthday in July :-D So, feel free to let me know how they look. Shoot through any advice. Hope you are enjoying my story :-) Have just uploaded some more photos, showing the girls, after their beauty treatment :-) All are looking fantastic, Hope you like the images. Just discovered Vipar Spectra have created a 1000W LED which uses a micro 100W to achieve this. The Vipar Spectra Pro Series P1000. I will be looking to buy myself one for my Birthday in July.

Bad start of the week or end of last week, not sure.. The middle cob led died so had to order some new lights. Also having a lot of issue's with fungus gnats. The fly traps are packed :/ Update: Fugnus gnats are getting a big problem. Guess it is because of the pots. Hung some sticky traps and ordered nematodes. Update; nematodes arrived and have been added to the pots. Also gave them another feeding. New equipment has arrived so will probably install tomorrow Update: new grow room installed! they seem to like their new home.

7/14 4AM MONDAY MUST DEFOLIATE!!!!! I HAVE 4 INSTEAD OF 2...BECAUSE OF MY LITTLE ACCIDENT EARLY ON.. I WILL TAKE ONE OUT OF FLOWER AND RE-VEG TODAY!!!

Heading towards day 14 now. I saw lots of stretch in the last week, I put up another net , single layer and the plants caught right up to it. Pistils are starting to set in.

I don't have single complaint. I love this strain and will absolutely be growing more in the future! Great bud structure, never a yellow leaf, just overall badass plant. Very happy I took a clone lol.

- Day 63 of Flower Light reduction to 50% - Day 65 of Flower Last time Watering - Day 67 of Flower Lights out for 3 days - day 70 of Flower Harvest Trichomes are about 10% amber and 80% cloudy with 10% clear Temperatures for drying gonna be 19°C and RH around 55%. She is looking beautiful and her Smell is so intensive you cannot unsmell it. Its Loud! Has Some Sweet doughy, Stanky, Cheesy and Garlic notes to it. I cant wait for the smoke. Has Some Fruity (Plum or Tangie like), Soapy and Floral Notes to it. I cant wait for the smoke.

Primeiro mês de floração, ótimas plantas, super saudável, fertilização ok, folhas com. Um verde bonito, rega e alimentação todos os dias. Plantas satisfeitas.

The plant kept stretching during this week. I'm a little bit worried as I don't see the flowers touching each other to form nice colas, but she's healthy so I can't complain, it's my first grow after all. Just hoping in fatter buds and not many popcorns. She's drinking a lot of water in these days and the EC was higher when checking it before the daily refill. Don't know why she's eating less, but I lowered it to 1.6 again. I give her what she wants. Keeping an eye on her development and trying to figure out when to add the P-K booster. No particular problems this week, everything is going ok. I gave her another (hopefully not too heavy) defoliation at day 59 so i guess I'm not going to touch her again till harvest.

I started flushing tham a few days ago, gonna let em go one more week before I harvest. This grow has gone on alot longer than I expected it would and I'm ready to smoke these bad girls already lol.

Week 11 (10-4 to 16-4) 10-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 21.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 60% (highest) 52% (lowest) No pictures. Added 10L to the reservoir, and turned it on for a couple of minutes. 11-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 21 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 61% (highest) 52% (lowest) 12-4 Temperature: 25.5 degrees (lights on) 22 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 57% (lowest) Turned the reservoir on for a couple of minutes. 13-4 Temperature: 26.5 degrees (lights on) 23 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 56% (lowest) 14-4 Temperature: 26.4 degrees (lights on) 22.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 45% (lowest) Turned the reservoir on for a couple of minutes. The reservoir is almost empty, there is 850 ml left. 15-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 20 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 59% (highest) 49% (lowest) No pictures. 16-4 Temperature: 23.5 degrees (lights on) 19.5 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 60% (highest) 53% (lowest) Today i defoliated both plants heavily for the last time, you can say i did a method called: schwazzing. Turned on the reservoir for a couple of minutes. (Till the AutoPots are full and the valve closes) Rised the pots aswell, so the canopy is very even. I let them recover from the heavy defoliation i did, and next week i will slowly increase the light's strength. (Now still at 50% 50cm)

Was gone for their second week and my gromie messed up the RH, however they’ve gotten their first feed today and they’re bouncing back fast. All within 24 hours
