Questa settimana sta andando bene i fiori stanno diventando più grandi, sono tutti pieni di resina ma sono comunque ancora piccolini, speriamo che ingrossino ancora 🤞🏻 Aggiornamento 17 Novembre: Oggi ho aggiunto una nuova luce di supporto appositamente per illuminare i fiori che sono più indietro rispetto agli altri. La lascerò accesa h24 per vedere se può cambiare qualcosa, nel frattempo alcuni fiori sembra che stiano iniziando ad ingrossare e ad unirsi.

Esta por empezar el engorde final. Ya las flores estan casi formadas. La altura está al límite total. Uno o dos centímetros más y estaría en problemas de verdad. El engorde de muchas flores ya es notorio, pero creo que el uso de un bioestimulante que no es de primera línea, ha reducido el potencial de las plantas. De todos modos hasta no tener el resultado final no puedo afirmar nada. La solución de esta semana fue cargada con más pk booster para ver cómo funciona la linea de greenhouse en esta etapa. Suelo usar pk 13/15 de canna. Pero esta vez puse el que tenía. Seguiré actualizando. Día 31. Se nota mucho el engorde. Las hojas muestran pequeños signos de sobre fertilización, pero nada grave que no haya visto antes. Me suele pasar en esta semana en todos los cultivos en hidroponia. Pero las veces que ko me pasó, no tuve el engorde deseado. Por eso manejo mediciones de PPM superiores 1000. Se empieza a ver cuáles van a ser los cogollos más grandes, pero sigo con incertidumbre sobre cuanto más van a engordar. Estoy bastante conforme al momento. Hoy tuve contacto con plantas macho, pero me cambié toda la ropa antes de acercarme al indoor y le lavé. Además no sé si sumará, pero me rocío en alcohol cada vez que entro a casa, así que espero no tener problemas. Ya voy a ir preparando los esquejes para la próxima siembra. Quizá no logre sacar 10 de las madres que tengo. Pero quizá ponga menos y los haga crecer más tiempo y con bastante LST. Pero será en otro protecto. Por ahora espero que siga el engorde. Día 33. Ya el engorde es un hecho. Por el momento estoy bastante satisfecho. La solución se concentró demasiado así que tuve que agregar agua. Pero más allá de algunos signos de sobre fertilización mínimos y pasajeros en las hojas, la plantas se muestran saludables y firmes. Todavía sigo buscando la posibilidad de agregar overdrive la semana que viene. Todo está por verse. Ya puedo asegurar que va a haber una séptima semana de floración, sino debería empezar el lavado en 2 días, cosa que a la vista, sería muy apresurado. Así que seguiré esperando a ver las flores con los pistilos más secos. Entre tanto los tricomas ya están formados, pero recién van a empezar la maduración en unos días. No saco foto porque el celular no hace buen foco con la lupa, pero ya intentaré mas adelante. Día 35. Cierra la semana con una buena idea de lo que van a ser los cogollos. Según el calendario de la planta, debería empezar el lavado esta semana, ya que sería la última. Pero por la madurez de los tricomas, todavía le faltan entre 10 días y 2 semanas más. Así que se viene otra semana de sobrecarga de PK y voy a aumentar la dosis para aprovechar a medir el nivel de tolerancia de la planta a altos niveles producto. Al ser hidroponia y trabajar con el ambiente bastante controlado, confío en que voy a poder aplicar correctivos a tiempo, si empiezo a notar defasajes bruscos.

🍮 8×8 Adventure – Week 14 🌸 Chem Brûlée – Pheno B 🔥 👑 The Beast Keeps Evolving — Her Own Story, Her Own Finish Line Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And here she is again... Our beautiful Chem Brûlée Pheno B! 🍮🔥 My friends... WE STILL HAVE A BEAST! 😂🔥 Look at this girl. Look at her flowers. Look at that main cola. Look at the way she's continuing to evolve. And look at how different she is from her sister! She's amazing. She's peculiar. She's got her own character, her own structure, and her own way of expressing herself. And the further we go into this adventure, the more I appreciate having the opportunity to follow these plants individually. Because this girl isn't simply another Chem Brûlée. She's Chem Brûlée Pheno B. And she's doing a fantastic job of reminding us why individual phenotype diaries are worth the effort. This week, we're not doing anything spectacular to her. We're not introducing some dramatic new technique. We're not trying to force her into a different shape or make her follow somebody else's schedule. We're providing what she needs, observing her development, taking photographs, and letting her continue toward her own finish line. And honestly? She's doing enough work for all of us. 😂🍮🔥 So let's give this beautiful beast her own spotlight! ──────────────────────── 🔥 STILL A BEAST — AND STILL COMPLETELY HERSELF Last week, I described this girl as a different kind of beast. And I'm sticking with that description. 😂🔥🍮 She's fascinating. The flowers have their own expression, and that structure is part of what makes her so interesting to follow. She's continuing to evolve, and the overall plant is giving us plenty to appreciate. That main cola deserves attention, of course, but I don't want this report to become a story about just one flower. Because there's more to this girl than her main event. The surrounding flowers have their own character. The overall structure deserves a closer look. And the plant as a whole is what makes this phenotype so interesting. One of the best things about documenting plants week after week is that we get to follow the complete journey rather than judging everything from a single photograph. We saw her developing. We saw her establish her own personality. And now we're continuing to watch that expression unfold. She's a beast. She's beautiful. And she's still writing her own story. 🍮🌸🔥 ──────────────────────── 👑 THAT MAIN COLA DESERVES HER OWN FAN CLUB Come on... We have to talk about that main cola! 😂🔥🌸 Every time I look at this girl, that impressive central flower catches my attention. It's one of those features that makes you stop for a moment and appreciate the structure the plant has developed. But the best part is that the main cola isn't the only thing worth looking at. The other flowers deserve their share of the spotlight, too. This is why I enjoy taking photographs from different angles. A full-plant photograph tells one story. A closer photograph tells another. And when you start looking at the individual flowers, you notice details that can easily disappear when you're looking at the plant from across the room. Different shapes. Different structures. Different little details. And all of them contribute to the identity of this particular phenotype. So yes, the main cola gets its moment. But the rest of the girl gets to shine as well. 😂🍮💚 ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FLOWERS ARE TELLING THEIR OWN STORY At this stage, I'm particularly interested in watching how the whole plant continues to develop. We're not trying to force a specific appearance. We're not trying to make every flower look identical. And we're certainly not expecting every phenotype in this room to reach the same stage at exactly the same time. We're observing what is actually happening. The flowers. The overall structure. The changing appearance of the plant. The differences between this girl and her sister. And the progression from one weekly update to the next. That's the beauty of the 8×8 Adventure. We have a shared environment, but the plants aren't carbon copies of one another. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B has given us plenty of reasons to keep looking closely. She's developing in her own way. And that's precisely what we're here to document. ──────────────────────── 🌿 SAME ROOM, DIFFERENT PERSONALITIES For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure! Twelve plants. Different genetics and phenotypes. One shared room. One general environmental strategy. One 12/12 lighting schedule. One nutritional program. One lighting ecosystem. And twelve individual stories. That's the experiment. We provide the plants with a shared environment and observe how their different genetics express themselves. Some plants stretch. Some remain compact. Some develop unusual structures. Some progress faster than others. And even plants from the same genetic line can show differences that make following them individually worthwhile. Chem Brûlée Pheno A has her own expression. Chem Brûlée Pheno B has hers. They're related, but they're not identical. And I don't want to lose that individuality by treating them as one generic plant. That's why we're giving this girl her own report again. Same room. Same general conditions. Same photons. Different phenotype. Different expression. Different story. 💚🌱 ──────────────────────── 💡 THE ARTIFICIAL SUN — FUTURE OF GROW BLACK SERIES The upgraded lighting setup remains part of the 8×8 Adventure. Our Future of Grow Black Series LEDs continue to provide the main lighting, with the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures supplied for this experiment remaining part of the setup. Following their installation, the output was reduced to approximately 59% from the plug. Our previous working reference was around 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy, with actual intensity varying according to plant height and position. The interesting part isn't simply having more lighting capacity. It's having that capacity available while being able to control the output. We're not running everything at maximum just because we can. And across this room, we're getting to observe how different plants develop under the same general lighting environment. Chem Brûlée Pheno B is giving us her own answer. Same artificial sun. Same room. Different genetic expression. ☀️💚 A massive thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to explore this upgraded setup. It's been a great addition to the project, and having the opportunity to document the plants throughout the experiment makes the whole experience even more interesting. ──────────────────────── 🔴 THE RED-LIGHT UPDATE — LET'S TALK SCIENCE As promised, we're continuing the discussion about the additional 15-minute red-light period after the main lighting period. And since these are individual reports from the same room, I want to keep the explanation consistent across the diaries. Plants respond to more than just the total amount of light they receive. They also respond to wavelength and timing. One important group of plant photoreceptors is the phytochrome system, which responds to red and far-red light and helps plants interpret changes in their light environment. These responses can influence plant development, but the outcome depends on several factors, including the spectrum, intensity, duration, timing, and the plant's physiological state. Our additional 15-minute red-light period is part of the lighting routine we're documenting. However, I want to be clear about something. We're not claiming that this short period automatically improves flowering, increases yield, or guarantees a better finish. Those are specific outcomes that require evidence. We're documenting the routine and exploring the science behind it, rather than promising results we haven't established. That's an important distinction. There's nothing wrong with experimenting or being curious about different lighting approaches. But we should always separate what we know from what we're investigating. And that's exactly what we're doing here. 🔴🌱💡 ──────────────────────── 🔬 THE EMERSON EFFECT — WHY TWO PHOTOSYSTEMS MATTER While we're talking about light, let's revisit the Emerson effect. This is a well-established phenomenon in photosynthesis, and it's a fascinating example of how plants use different wavelengths of light. In simplified terms, the Emerson effect describes an increase in photosynthetic activity when certain red and far-red wavelengths are supplied together, producing a response greater than expected from their individual effects under the relevant experimental conditions. The explanation involves two cooperating photosystems: 🌿 Photosystem II (PSII) 🌿 Photosystem I (PSI) Both are essential parts of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. They work together to convert light energy into chemical energy that the plant can use. Their light-absorption characteristics differ, and under suitable conditions, combining particular wavelengths can improve the balance between their activity. That's the basic principle behind the Emerson effect. But here's where we need to be careful. The Emerson effect doesn't mean that any red-light treatment will automatically increase photosynthesis. And it doesn't mean that our additional 15-minute red-light period after the main lighting period is necessarily reproducing the classic Emerson effect. The classic phenomenon involves the combined effects of particular red and far-red wavelengths under specific illumination conditions. Our lighting routine is a different situation. To establish a measurable benefit, we would need to know the actual spectrum and intensity and use suitable comparisons to determine whether the treatment produces a meaningful difference. So, the Emerson effect is real. The underlying science is fascinating. But we shouldn't automatically attribute a benefit to our particular routine without evidence. That's how we keep the educational side of this adventure honest. We can explore. We can question. We can observe. And we can keep learning. 🔬💡🌱 ──────────────────────── 🌙 RED LIGHT AND THE END OF THE LIGHTING PERIOD One final distinction is worth mentioning. Red light and far-red light are not interchangeable. They interact with plant photoreceptors differently, and their effects depend on the conditions in which they're used. A short red-light period after the main lighting period isn't automatically equivalent to a far-red treatment, and neither guarantees a particular outcome. For this project, we're documenting our additional 15-minute red-light period as part of the lighting routine. We're not presenting it as a proven yield-enhancing treatment or claiming that it necessarily improves the plant's transition into darkness. If we want to determine whether it makes a measurable difference, we need suitable comparisons and measurements. Until then, we can discuss the science, document our observations, and remain open to what the evidence shows. That's what I enjoy about these projects. There's always something new to learn, and we don't need to pretend we have every answer. 💚🔬 ──────────────────────── 🌱 NUTRITION — PROVIDING WHAT SHE NEEDS As with the rest of the room, the general nutritional program remains consistent with our previous update. Our last recorded recipe reference was: 🌱 Plagron Pure Zym — 1 ml/L ⚗️ Plagron pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L 🍋 Plagron Lemon Kick — 0.03 ml/L 🌸 Plagron Terra Bloom — 2 ml/L 🌿 Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L 🍯 Plagron Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Green Sensation — 1 ml/L The previous solution readings were approximately pH 6.04 and EC 2.05 mS/cm. We're not introducing a dramatic new nutritional change simply to make this week's report sound more exciting. We're continuing to observe the plants and maintain the shared approach. As each plant progresses, we can assess whether anything actually needs to change rather than making decisions based solely on the calendar. Consistency is part of the experiment. And individual observation is what helps us understand the differences between the girls. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ WEEK 14 — ROOM CONDITIONS The previous room reference readings remain: 🌸 Flowering — Week 14 💡 Light schedule — 12/12 💡 Lighting — Future of Grow Black Series, upgraded setup 🔌 Approximate lighting output — 59% from the plug ☀️ Upper-canopy PPFD reference — ~1,500 🌡️ Day temperature — ~27°C 🌙 Night temperature — ~26°C 💧 Relative humidity — ~61% ⚗️ Previous pH reading — ~6.04 ⚡ Previous EC reading — ~2.05 mS/cm 🌡️ Nutrient solution temperature — ~25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature — ~25°C 🌬️ CO₂ — ~693 ppm 🌱 Pot size — 15 L 💦 Previous irrigation reference — ~1.45 L per plant / 24h These are the previous shared room readings, rather than a claim that every parameter has been remeasured this week. The overall approach remains consistent, and we're continuing to observe how each individual plant develops within that environment. Same room. Same general setup. Same lighting ecosystem. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B continues giving us her own expression. ──────────────────────── 📸 WE'RE OBSERVING, NOT INVENTING WORK I think this deserves its own little section because it reflects where we are in the adventure. We're doing very little physical work with this girl right now. And that's intentional. We're not looking for something to change simply because another week has passed. We're not trying to force a new technique into the diary. We're not trying to make the plant follow a schedule we've invented for her. We're observing. We're documenting. We're providing what she needs. And we're letting the plant continue her journey. Sometimes a grower needs to intervene. Sometimes a grower needs to investigate a problem. And sometimes a grower simply needs to step back, look at the plant, and appreciate what's happening. This week is very much about that last part. 😂🍮💚 The plant is the main character. We're here to document her story. ──────────────────────── 💬 COME JOIN THE DOG DOCTOR COMMUNITY!

That's what it's all about! ──────────────────────── ❤️ FINAL THOUGHTS — THE BEAST IS STILL SHINING Week 14. Chem Brûlée Pheno B. And yes, my friends... we still have a beast! 😂🍮🔥 She's beautiful. She's peculiar. She's continuing to evolve. And she's doing it in her own way. That main cola deserves its attention, but the entire plant deserves appreciation. We're watching the flowers. We're watching the overall development. We're documenting her progress. And we're allowing her to continue toward her own finish line. No unnecessary interventions. No invented harvest dates. No dramatic changes just for the sake of having something new to report. We're simply providing what she needs and observing the journey. We've also revisited our red-light routine and the Emerson effect because these reports are an opportunity to share knowledge, not just photographs. The Emerson effect is an established photosynthetic phenomenon involving the cooperation of two photosystems under particular illumination conditions. Our additional 15-minute red-light period is something we're documenting, but we shouldn't claim that it reproduces the Emerson effect or guarantees a particular benefit. We can experiment without overpromising. We can be enthusiastic without abandoning scientific accuracy. And we can appreciate a beautiful plant while remaining curious about the science behind the environment she's growing in. That's what makes this adventure worthwhile. 💚🔬🌱 So, Chem Brûlée Pheno B... Keep doing your thing, beautiful beast. Keep evolving. Keep showing us your personality. We're not going to rush you. We're not going to make unnecessary changes. We're simply going to keep observing, keep documenting, and enjoy the journey toward your own finish line. Same room. Same photons. Different phenotype. Your own expression. Your own story. 🍮🌸🔥💚 And when you're ready for the next chapter, we'll be here with the camera. ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU A huge thank you to Zamnesia for the Chem Brûlée genetics and for giving us the opportunity to follow these individual phenotypes throughout the 8×8 Adventure. 🌸🙏 Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of the journey and helping us maintain consistency throughout the project. 🌱 A massive thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting and especially for supplying the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures we're testing in this room. 💡🔥 Thank you to LumiFlora for adding another lighting dimension deeper into the canopy.

next time i have to veg more then 4 weeks to increase yield. it finishes quickly and big yield for the short veg time. im also very happy with the optic 4 wich made the buds dense from top to bottom. i might upgrade to cocos or hydro next grow, or maybe both ;)

She has done well throughout the vegetation she has many five fingered leaves and a few seven fingered despite the harsh conditions she is holding up well receiving around 300 to 400 mls of water each week and the substrate left with at least 15% in it. She suffered a little bit of light burn and likes the distance kept at 50cm. At the end of the vegetation the double kush cake’s canopy has split wide open and she now stands approximately 50cm from the soil.

Just cut down the Miller high life bottle grow with QP. Was a really neat micro grow. It got much bigger then I expected. Was a pain to get started, and growing. Finally got it. The Unit Farm UF2000 worked great. Thank you Unit Farm 🌱 I will be back when dried to weigh out. Happy growing 🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the likes, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel. 🍻🌱👍 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Hello growers and tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 There has been a couple changes this week!! First there was a big defoliation done, I cleaned the bottom of the plant. All the growth that wouldn't amount to anything because the light doesn't penetrate that low. Also took off the biggest fan leaves to give more light penetration. Then finally switched to 12/12.. Just 36 hours after the defoliation she looked fuller than before. Leaves pointing up and out. By how she's doing I'm sure she'll stretch a good bit these next few weeks. Great reaction to the defoliation. I'm still watering every other day, After the defoliation I watered with only Enzymes 2ml/L to clean the roots a bit then started with the nutrientes again. I dropped the amount of grow nutrients from 3ml/L to 1ml/L and started adding bloom nutrientes 2ml/L for now. I'll slowly be upping the bloom nutrientes and after week 2 I'll no longer add grow nutrients. That's it for this week. Stay tuned to see how she flowers. Stay safe!

What a happy girl! Have added no nutes yet and letting the soil do the work for now (NFTG4+extra perlite). I have done a second dosing of malted barley that was hand ground and dusted before watering. Seems to enjoy the soil and light so far. Wish I could get temps up reliably but the electric heater had temp swings that were going to cause issues, so she's gonna live in the 68-72 day time and 64 nighttime for now Also! Wanted to include a short video of her dancing in the wind😊

Day 67

After 2 days the roof is getting of and the plant gets her first 250 ml of Water. The plant grows very vigorously and fast. Unfortunate the last day the plant begun to bend her first 2 leaves up and i dont realy know why. I will try something out and see where it goes.

3/6/2020 day 81(day 2) Plants have been given a healthy dose of calmag. Also have been given nutrients. They arnt ready to be harvested yet. But should be soon in the next 11 days. I think 92 days is a lot for an auto 6/6/2020 such a dumbass. I didnt feed any nutrients. I fed my plants fucking myco! I was mixing myco into my reservoir. My myco can and my nutrient can both look the same. I accidentally replaced the wrong lid and fed myco to my plants for so long. Ffs. What other ways can I fuck up my grow?

91 Grapes day 80; Well for a plant that is supposed to grow a 65 day from sprout she still has some time left to finish. Buds are stacking in true chem91 fashion super dense and chunky but the smell is nothing short of downright grapes, it’s the same smell of grape koolaid when you tear into a package, or a grape pixie stick.

She's being grown without any training method,just 100% natural and organically grown,in her soil mix she has guanokalong seaweed powder,complete organics and grow and flo by florians living organics which is full of humic and fulvic acids and 10 different types of mycorrizae and beneficial fungus,plus I'm watering with guanokalong extract and also my lactobacillus liquid made by myself,she looks super happy and green,she's definitely a big lady and she loves her house 😍💚🌱 #organicmedicine ✌️

WEEK 2 DAY 14 Since last week the babies have taken off! They didn’t have much light until yesterday when I added another 100w led and since then I’ve seen a huge difference ! They are looking super healthy the roots said fuck the pot and grew right through it I’m actually super interested in seeing how these grow up.. The 3 clones that were separate last week are now moved into one single pot to further develop the experiment. They are on the same feed as the mother with flora grow/micro/bloom and cal-mag . And In the last picture you can see my ghettos man way of cloning .. going to see which 2 out of 4 are better rooted and I will move those to a pot in about a week or so. If you guys have any questions or want to know where I got these exotic seeds message me!! Or comment below !

Amazing experience with the Mix Pack, I will try it again next summer for sure. Love the variety.

Hat sich super entwickelt und es war der perfekte Zeitpunkt für sie, getoppt zu werden. Die 4 Triebe sind alle auf einer Höhe und können jetzt gemeinsam groß werden.

the suitcase was redone, I redid the activated carbon filter to the top of the bag, which helped reduce the temperature to 27° during the day:) girl, this will make you feel a lot better:) everything looks really good, I don't want to rejoice too early, but the first 2 weeks passed smoothly:) Day 14 I made a cut of the main ring for the girl :) which will reduce her height, I think it's only for the good :).
