Good week in the tent, finally now seeing the flowers kicking in. Only took about 3 weeks under 12/12, lol. They've stretched quite a bit since the flip, and by the looks of things should yield more than I initially thought. -10/6- Gave the girls a drink and a defo today, in the interest of airflow mainly. Don't want a repeat of last time. No matter how miniscule the amount of mold, any is a serious issue by my (and anyone resonable's) standards.

Found mold on my plant. Since she is now pretty close to harvest time, this was her last watering and I will now try to dry her out slowly over her Last week. Probably gonna harvest next week if nothing goes wrong from here on out.

💜 Purple CousKush Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B | Week 10 🌿 No Demands. No Drama. Just Beautiful Flowering. Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And once again... Purple CousKush Pheno B isn't asking for much. She's not complaining. She's not creating problems. She's not demanding special treatment. She's simply growing. Flowering. Building. And looking absolutely beautiful while doing it. 😂💜 At this stage of the adventure, I think that's exactly what I want from her. We're reaching that part of the cycle where there isn't necessarily a lot left for the grower to do. We've built the plants. We've trained them. We've managed the canopies. We've provided the environment. We've given them the nutrition and the light. Now? We mostly provide whatever they ask for and stay out of the way. And Purple CousKush Pheno B isn't asking for much. She's perfectly happy continuing at her own rhythm. So... let's give this girl her spotlight. 🌱 The 8×8 Adventure — Everybody Has Their Own Rhythm For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure. Twelve different plants. Different genetics. Different phenotypes. One general cultivation environment. One lighting philosophy. One nutrition strategy. One room. And yet... twelve different stories. That's what makes this project so interesting. Some girls have been more demanding. Some have needed more attention. Some are extremely compact. Some spread themselves out. Some move faster. Some take their time. And some, like this Purple CousKush Pheno B, basically look at me and say: "I'm fine. Just keep the drinks coming." 😂💜 Fair enough. That's exactly what we're doing. 💜 Week 10 — She's Still Doing Her Thing She's sitting around 96 cm, which puts her firmly into the more moderate-sized category of this run. She's not a giant. She's not a dwarf. She's not trying to take over the tent. But she's also not cramped into a tiny little package. Instead, she's developed a really nice spread through the available space. And that's something I'm appreciating more and more. She's not particularly compact. Her branches have room to spread. Her flowering sites occupy the space naturally. And the plant has developed a nice relationship between height and lateral structure. She's using the space she's been given. Not excessively. Not wastefully. Just... nicely. And honestly, that's a very satisfying phenotype to work with. 🌿 Beautifully Spread Through Her Space One of the things that catches my attention this week is how nicely she's occupying the space around her. She's not simply a vertical column of flowers. She's spreading outward. The branches have developed into their own little framework, with flowering sites distributed throughout the structure. That gives her a completely different appearance from some of the more compact girls in the room. And that's exactly what I love about comparing phenotypes. Her sister tells a different story. Other Purple CousKush plants tell different stories. This one? She likes a little more room. And she's using it beautifully. There's something elegant about seeing a plant naturally occupy the space available to her without becoming excessively stretched. She's simply finding her own shape. And I like her shape. 🌸 The Buds Are Getting Serious Now let's talk about the flowers. Because... damn. 😂💜 The buds are becoming seriously beautiful. They're gaining density. They're becoming more defined. They're carrying more visual weight. And the overall flowering structure is starting to look increasingly mature. This is the point where you stop looking at little flowering sites and start seeing proper buds developing throughout the plant. The structures are filling. The individual flowers are becoming more substantial. And the whole plant is increasingly dominated by those beautiful flowering formations. This is what we've been waiting for. And she's delivering. ❄️ Very, Very Frosty And then there is the frost. She's getting seriously frosty. The resin is becoming increasingly obvious across the flowers and surrounding sugar leaves. Get the camera close... and suddenly everything becomes about texture. Tiny resin-covered surfaces. Pistils. Calyxes. Sugar leaves. Layers upon layers of detail. This is exactly where my love of macro photography and growing overlap. Because you can stand back and see a beautiful plant. Then you move closer... and suddenly you're looking at an entire microscopic landscape. And Purple CousKush Pheno B is giving me plenty to explore. The name CousKush might be the first thing you read. But that frost? That's what makes you stay and look. 😂❄️💜 🌸 The Hairs Are Changing Beautifully I'm also really enjoying the way the pistils are developing. They're no longer just those fresh white hairs we see in early flower. They're beginning to show more character as the flowers progress. The colour is changing. The flowers are maturing. And that contrast between the developing pistils and the green floral structures is beautiful. It's another little sign that we're moving forward. Not finished. Not ready to write the ending. But definitely progressing. And this is the stage where every week becomes increasingly interesting. Because eventually, those little changes start adding up. 🌿 And Those Leaves... The foliage continues looking beautiful too. Nice colour. Nice structure. Nice overall appearance. And there's something particularly satisfying about seeing healthy-looking foliage surrounding flowers that are becoming this dense and frosty. The leaves are still doing their job. They're still contributing to the plant. They're still capturing light. They're still supporting the flowering process. And I'm not interested in removing healthy foliage just because we're getting deeper into flower. At this point, if the plant is comfortable and the canopy is functioning... leave her alone. 😂 She's got this. ✂️ No More Need for the Scissors We've already done the canopy work earlier in the flowering cycle. That work served its purpose. The plant has room. The structure is functional. Air can move through it. Light can reach the important areas. And now? I'm not going back in simply because I feel like I should be doing something. That's one of the biggest lessons of this stage. Sometimes the best cultivation technique is: Don't touch it. 😂 At this point, we're not trying to redesign Purple CousKush. We're watching her finish. If she doesn't ask for something... I'm not going to invent a problem. 💡 The Photons Keep Coming The Future of Grow Black Series LED continues providing the primary overhead lighting, while Lumiflora contributes additional light beneath the canopy. And this girl is clearly making use of that environment. She's built plenty of flowering structure. She's developing dense buds. She's producing visible resin. And she's filling her available space naturally. That's what I want to see. The light provides the opportunity. The environment provides the conditions. The plant's genetics decide what happens with that opportunity. And Purple CousKush Pheno B has decided to make some beautiful flowers. I'm perfectly happy with her decision. 💜🌿✨ 🔬 This Is Why Phenotypes Are So Interesting Looking at this girl beside her sister is particularly fun. Same genetic line. Same general room. Same lighting. Same environmental philosophy. Same grower. But completely different expressions. One phenotype may be more compact. Another may spread wider. One may produce a different flower structure. Another may develop different proportions. And that's the entire reason I wanted to document these plants individually. Because if I simply looked at Purple CousKush as one thing, I'd miss all of this. There isn't one Purple CousKush story. There are individual stories. And this one is telling me: "I'm going to spread out, build beautiful dense flowers, get very frosty, and otherwise leave you alone." 😂💜 I like that story. 🌸 We're Getting Into the "Watch and Wait" Stage This is where the entire room is becoming especially interesting. Most of the girls are moving quickly now. The flowering structures are established. The plants have largely finished deciding how they're going to occupy their space. And the grower starts becoming less of a sculptor... and more of a caretaker. We provide what they need. We monitor. We observe. We keep the environment stable. And we wait. Because from here, the plant has a lot of the work left to do. Density. Resin. Maturity. Final flower development. And eventually... the finish line. Purple CousKush Pheno B is heading there beautifully. 💧 Feeding & Irrigation The current recorded conditions remain: 🌸 Flowering: Week 10 📏 Height: 96 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 🌡️ Day temperature: 29.9°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC/TDS: ~2.0 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 🌬️ CO₂: 639 ppm ? Pot size: 15 L 💦 Watering: approximately 1.2 L per plant / 24h The nutrition and irrigation approach remains consistent. And honestly? She's not asking for anything different. That's important. There's no reason to change something that's working simply because we're getting closer to the finish. Consistency remains the name of the game. 🌡️ Stable Environment, Happy Plant The room continues operating under the same general environmental philosophy. Stable temperatures. Stable lighting. Stable nutrition. Stable irrigation. And a plant that appears perfectly comfortable inside those conditions. That's exactly what I want. The less drama the plant gives me... the more I can concentrate on observing what her genetics are actually doing. And this phenotype is giving us plenty to observe. 📸 This Week's Gallery The photographs this week really show the progression. The full-plant shots demonstrate how nicely she's spreading through the available space. The closer photographs reveal the flower density. And once you get close enough... the frost becomes impossible to ignore. There's something very satisfying about photographing her now. She's developed enough structure that the plant tells a story from a distance. But there are enough details in the flowers that you can keep getting closer and still find something interesting. And that's exactly what I want from these late-flowering photographs. Not just: "Here's the plant." But: "Here's what the plant has become." 💜 She's Not Asking for Much — And That's a Good Thing I think I've said this several times about this girl now. But it keeps being true. She's not demanding. She's not troublesome. She's not dramatic. She's not constantly asking for intervention. She's just growing beautifully. And at this stage? That's almost the perfect plant. Because we're reaching the point where there's not much I want to do to her anyway. I want her to finish. I want her to build. I want her to mature. I want her to show me what those flowers can become. So if she's happy... I'm happy. Simple. 😂💜 🔭 Looking Ahead — How Will She Finish? And now comes the fun part. We're getting closer. Not at the finish line yet. But close enough that the question becomes increasingly interesting: How is Purple CousKush Pheno B going to finish? Will those dense flowers continue swelling? How much more resin will appear? How will the pistils continue changing? How much more maturity will we see in the buds? And what will this beautiful, nicely spread-out plant ultimately look like when she decides she's done? I genuinely don't know. And I'm not going to pretend I do. That's the fun. We watch. We document. We provide. And we let the plant write the ending. ❤️ Final Thoughts — She's Shining Purple CousKush Pheno B is another girl in this run who is making my job wonderfully simple. She's growing. She's flowering. She's spreading nicely through her available space. She's producing dense flowers. She's getting very frosty. The pistils are developing beautiful colour. The foliage looks great. And she's not asking me for much at all. Honestly... what more could I ask for? 😂💜 She's not the smallest plant in the room. She's not the tallest. She's not particularly compact. She's not trying to be anything she's not. She's simply using the space she's been given and turning it into flowers. And I really like that. This whole 8×8 Adventure keeps reminding me that there isn't one correct way for a plant to express itself. Some plants compress. Some spread. Some stretch. Some stay short. Some build giant central flowers. Some create beautiful clusters throughout the branches. And Purple CousKush Pheno B? She's found her own way. A nice spread. Beautiful structure. Dense flowers. Heavy frost. Beautiful colour. And absolutely no drama. 💜🌿❄️ We're at that beautiful point now where I don't feel like I need to do much. I just need to provide whatever she asks for. And this girl isn't asking for much. So we'll keep doing exactly that. Keep the environment stable. Keep her supplied. Keep watching. Keep photographing. And let her finish in her own time. Because she's already given me a beautiful plant. Now I want to see what she does with the time that's left. And I have to admit... I'm very curious. Let's see how this beautiful Purple CousKush finishes. She's earned the spotlight. She's earned the attention. And she's certainly earned another week of simply being allowed to shine. 💜✨🌿 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for these beautiful Purple CousKush genetics and for giving us another fascinating phenotype to follow. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting these girls throughout the flowering journey. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for the Black Series lighting driving the garden. Thank you to Lumiflora for bringing additional light beneath the canopy and adding another dimension to this experiment. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping maintain the environment behind the scenes. And, of course, thank you to everyone following this crazy 8×8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries. We're getting deeper into the journey now. The plants are becoming themselves. The differences between phenotypes are becoming clearer. And the amount of work required from the grower is slowly changing. We're no longer building. We're no longer shaping. We're mostly watching. Providing. Maintaining. And waiting. And Purple CousKush Pheno B? She's making that part very easy. She's not asking for much. She's not causing trouble. She's just growing beautiful, dense, frosty flowers in her own beautiful way. So let's keep watching. Let's keep photographing. Let's keep learning. And most importantly... let's see how this girl finishes. 💜❄️🌸 Until next week... Beautiful structure. Dense flowers. Heavy frost. No demands. Let's let her shine. Growers Love & Happy Growing! 🌱💚💜

Going to start flushing in about a week or so

Hopefully I haven't left it too late to fix, added nitrogen fertiliser (liquid) 1ml/1ltr with their nutrient mix, waiting a few days to see if they get back that lovely green colour again, probably should of left the damaged leaves on until I see healthy new growth but I cut a few of the worst looking ones at the bottom.

Picking up the growth .

Start of week 6!! One more week until flip All pits have been brought back up to ph range in the 6s

Special Project from Germany and Welcome to Harvest Week of GoodTimesGenetix Blue Cream Haze

Heute geerntet ! Absolut lecker und frostig 🤤 Der smoke Bericht folgt ! Die zweite Pflanze brauch noch 2 Wochen! Die ist getoppt ,trainiert ,LST und entlaubt. Die zweite hatte trocken 105🤩

Day 15-defoliated her probably for the last time after a few weeks of growth, she was very bushy. Added another fan to get more air moving as well. Also, I decided to try out the AN Sensi Bloom set. I didn’t mean to get the coco version but a little extra cal-mag won’t hurt in this case, I only fed at 75% strength and added big Bud powder at 0.5 grams/liter. I’m hoping her stretch finishes soon or I’ll run out of space, although she’s starting to really stack.

Somewhat slacking with detailed photos from this week, been busy with the holidays/ family etc. hopefully should have a little more time to take some good ones for next week.. Not much to say, they are getting quite big! some more lower branches and leaves were removed and I've been watering every other day, about .5-.75 gal per plant until I see some run off and the top looks evenly moist. End of week 1 of flower and there are Lots of white pistils, a pleasant smell (controlled by my filter/vent) and some major stretching happening on the strongest branches. Already raised the light by a few inches twice now too keep the distance over 12 inches from these stretchy ones! 😏 Also found a large healthy looking seed in my grinder that I've saved (Mac 1 supposedly, its good smoke)

Will report back with a smoke report, but this thing smells incredible and budded extremely well. Didn't have much of any issues with pests. Got a BIG 4' plant from only super soil in a 5-gallon fabric pot. Tons of resin. Very impressed with these automatic genetics from Pride of the Lion Seeds... and I'll definitely be growing another one of them in the spring.

Привет садоводы !!! Вот и подошла к концу история на улице Вроде все прошло хорошо выросли 3 симпатичных куста к сожалению четвертый куст ,в связи с небольшой путанницей оказался не autoflower и он еще не зацвел,а если и зацветет , то в любом случае не успеет дожить до конца из-за погодных условий А в ощем не плохо цветы не заплесневели и за 11 недель успели созреть можно и еще было оставить их на недельку, но обещали дожди и я решил их срезать кстати попробовал смолу с ножниц после маникюра вставляет хорошо Спасибо SSSC за прекрасные цветы !!!

Oggi, lunedì 22/01 ho cambiato una 40 ina di litri di soluzione nuova e fresca...ho notato che verso la fine, l'acqua/soluzione era più "limpida" rispetto alla prima ventina di litri ... credo che la pietra porosa con aggiunta di ossigenatore sia stata utile nel secchio "Sistema" per evitare eventuali depositi sul fondo Il problema maggiore è la temperatura stessa ossigenata... è impossibile tenerla a 19/20° senza l'uso di un raffreddatore(Chiller)...costa un botto! Ora è a 21.3 ma sicuramente salirà....di solito è intorno ai 22° ...La luce led dimmerabile è all'80%... È vero che ci saranno le foglie a fare ombra al vaso....ma non so se al 100% ,che metterò ad inizio fioritura e l'abbassero in altezza a 40 cm dalla cima,cosa accadrà alla temperatura,in generale Per ora andiamo avanti e proviamo a risolvere una cosa la volta 😉 Oggi topping o FiMing, vediamo cosa riesce😂 Crescono ma... credo che abbiano preso il Mosaico del tabacco..una malattia che deforma le foglie,si piegano le punte in su e in giù, alcune foglie appunto presentano una specie di mosaico con macchie giallognolo Sembra bene...oggi 2 febbraio defogliazione e da lunedì si passa alle 12 ore..... credo che farò così...o farò poi fatica a gestire le altezze e l'area...ho notato che le foglie e il tronco sono molto più grossi rispetto la terra con lo stesso periodo di 3 settimane piene...

visible flowering week 4 the bruce banner seems to be a late flower there doing well on there Plagron nutrients and there loving the new sun Spectrolight Blast 400

Week 3 has just been wild there proper going for it
