On day 1 the rez is 6.2. Stretch seems to be over and buds are growing well. On day 6 the girls are bulking up and smelling great. I changed out the rez and phed to 6.1. On day 7 The rez is at 6.1 PH.

They are doing good 🌱

Day 28 flower Girls are looking solid — buds are stacking nicely and the trichome frost is already showing up on the bigger colas. I’m loving the dark tones coming through, especially on the Kush Crasher (those purple/bronze leaves are sexy). A few plants are showing light N deficiency on some older fan leaves (yellowing lower leaves), so I’ll tweak the feed mix to stop that drift — nothing drastic, just feeding smarter and keeping an eye on cal/mag. Overall the canopy is dense, colas are filling out and the stretch is well and truly done. Quick photo notes from yesterday’s shots: Wedding Cake (back-left) — fat, resinous tops, nice white pistils and good bud density. Kush Crasher (back-center) — gorgeous dark colouration, big chunky nodes, looking like it’ll finish purple if temps stay cool at night. AK-47 (back-right) — chunky central cola forming, a touch sensitive to humidity so I’m watching airflow. Double Krush (front-left) — frosty and sugary, good structure and lots of side bud action. Wappa (front-center) — slightly paler, showing that light N pull, but buds are stacking nice and airy. Detroit Runtz (front-right) — tight little colas, smelling sweet, filling out well. Box still smells absolutely insane when I open it — that classic flower-room punch is back and I forgot how addictive it is after a break. Main concern is night RH spikes (still working on that), and the odd yellow fan leaf — both solvable. Tomorrow I’ll do one last light clean (trim the real shady bits), double-check feed strength and let the girls fatten up. Feeling good — plants are responding and the tent is starting to look like it’s doing work. Green vibes. ✌️🌿

🇩🇪 Die ersten Blütenstände sind erkennbar und sie beginnt sich zu Strecken. Sie beginnt auch schon leicht zu duften. Ich bin mal gespannt. Alle Parameter sehen gut aus und die Pflanze dementsprechend auch. Vor ein paar Tagen war es sehr heiß draußen, wodurch die Temperatur auf 29 grad gestiegen ist. Dem Strain hat es aber nichts ausgemacht. Die anderen Pflanzen haben die Blätter hängen lassen aber FB scheint sehr resistent gegen hohe Temperaturen zu sein, bzw. sie gut wegzustecken. Die Lampe habe ich heute auf 75% hochgedreht. 🇺🇸 The first buds are visible, and it’s starting to stretch. It’s also beginning to emit a light scent. I’m curious to see how it develops. All the parameters look good, and so does the plant. A few days ago, it was very hot outside, causing the temperature to rise to 29°C. However, the strain didn’t seem to mind. The other plants drooped their leaves, but FB appears to be very resistant to high temperatures or able to handle them well. Today, I turned the lamp up to 75%. 🇪🇸 Los primeros cogollos son visibles, y está comenzando a estirarse. También empieza a emitir un ligero aroma. Tengo curiosidad por ver cómo se desarrolla. Todos los parámetros se ven bien, y la planta también. Hace unos días hizo mucho calor afuera, lo que hizo que la temperatura subiera a 29°C. Sin embargo, a esta cepa no pareció afectarle. Las otras plantas bajaron sus hojas, pero FB parece ser muy resistente a las altas temperaturas o capaz de manejarlas bien. Hoy subí la lámpara al 75%.

Went abit over the top with the defoliation but first time for everything think people call it mainlining or something and looks like the cuttings have took there’s new green growth

🍬🌿 8×8 Adventure – Harvest Diary Candy Rain Auto by Zamnesia 👑 THE SOLO SURVIVOR HAS COME DOWN! ONE BEAUTIFUL GIRL, ONE AMAZING JOURNEY, AND A HARVEST WORTH CELEBRATING! 🍬🌸💚 Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 My friends... OUR CANDY RAIN HAS COME DOWN! 🍬👑🌿 And honestly, I'm so happy we had the opportunity to grow this girl. Our beautiful solo survivor. The one who's been quietly doing her thing, developing her flowers, showing us her individual character, and giving us plenty of reasons to keep coming back with the camera. And now, here we are. HARVEST DAY! 🌸✂️🍬 Look at her! She's beautiful. She's been a pleasure to follow throughout this journey, and I'm genuinely glad we had the chance to include her in the 8×8 Adventure. Not every plant needs a sister beside her to make an interesting story. Sometimes one girl is more than enough to keep you curious, keep you taking photographs, and keep you looking forward to the next update. And Candy Rain has certainly done that. 💚🌿 Before we go any further, a little explanation for everyone following these diaries. Yes, we're dividing the harvest reports again! 😂📸 I know, my friends. We've been doing this quite a lot lately, but with twelve individual plant diaries and plenty of photographs to document, we're giving each stage its own space. This report is dedicated to Candy Rain's harvest chapter. The next report will continue with the post-harvest journey, including the drying and trimming documentation, followed by our smoke review when we get there. We're drying her as a full plant, and we'll document that stage in the upcoming update. So please bear with us while we give each girl the attention she deserves. I'd much rather tell her story properly than squeeze everything into one enormous report! 💚🌱 Now, let's give our beautiful Candy Rain the spotlight. Because this girl absolutely deserves it. ──────────────────────── 🍬 FROM SOLO SURVIVOR TO HARVEST DAY If you've been following Candy Rain from the beginning, you'll know that she's been our solo survivor throughout this part of the 8×8 Adventure. And what a journey it's been! We've followed her through the earlier stages, watched her develop, and documented the changes as she moved through flowering. Week after week, she gave us something new to observe. Her structure developed. Her flowers became the focus. Her appearance changed as the journey progressed. And, of course, she kept us guessing along the way. 😂🍬🌸 One of the things I particularly enjoyed during her later flowering weeks was how she continued to surprise us with fresh pistils, even while the trichomes were giving us another perspective on her maturity. It was a good reminder that no single visual detail tells the entire story. We kept observing, comparing the photographs, and following her progression rather than trying to force her into a predetermined timeline. And now, her growing chapter has reached harvest. That's a lovely milestone for this diary. We've documented the journey as it happened, and now we get to preserve the next part of her story. 💚🌿🍬 ──────────────────────── 🌸 OUR BEAUTIFUL SOLO SURVIVOR There's something special about following one plant on her own. Throughout the 8×8 Adventure, we've had different genetic groups, different phenotypes, and different personalities sharing the same general environment. But Candy Rain has been our solo survivor. One girl. One individual story. And plenty of beautiful moments worth documenting. 🍬💚 I've genuinely enjoyed growing her. She's given us a reason to keep observing, keep photographing, and keep asking what the next week might bring. And that's one of the things I value most about this project. We're not just growing plants and taking a final photograph when they're finished. We're documenting their journeys. We're recording what changes. We're looking back at previous updates. And we're appreciating each plant as an individual rather than expecting every girl to follow the same script. Candy Rain has her own place in that bigger picture. She's our solo survivor, and I'm really glad we had the opportunity to grow her. Sometimes, that's the simplest and most honest thing you can say about a plant. She's been a pleasure to follow. She's beautiful. And I'm happy she's part of this adventure. 🍬🌿🌸 ──────────────────────── 👑 HARVEST DAY — THE END OF ONE CHAPTER Harvest day always feels like a milestone. We've spent so much time following the plants through their development that reaching this point gives us a chance to pause and appreciate the journey behind us. For Candy Rain, this marks the end of her growing chapter. From the earlier updates to the weeks of flowering, we've had the opportunity to document her individual expression and watch her progress. Now, we're moving into the next stage. ✂️🌿 And while harvest day is an important moment, it isn't the end of the entire story. There's still the drying stage to document. There's the trimming report. And, when the time comes, there's the smoke review and our final reflections. We're dividing those stages so each one has room for its own photographs, observations, and details. For now, this is Candy Rain's harvest report. One chapter closed. Another one waiting just around the corner. 🍬💚🌸 ──────────────────────── 📸 EVERY PHOTOGRAPH IS PART OF THE STORY I always enjoy looking back at the photographs from a plant's journey. A single image can capture a beautiful moment, but a series of photographs allows us to see how that moment developed. That's why I like documenting the plants throughout the run. We can revisit the earlier stages. We can compare their changing appearance. We can appreciate the little details we might otherwise forget. And we can build a record of the entire journey, rather than relying on memory alone. Candy Rain has given us her own collection of moments, and I'm happy we can bring those together in her individual diary. 🍬📸💚 The harvest photographs mark the transition from the growing room into the post-harvest stage. And the next report will continue that visual record as we document her drying and trimming journey. So stay tuned, my friends. We've still got more of Candy Rain's story to share! ──────────────────────── 🌿 THE 8×8 ADVENTURE — TWELVE PLANTS, TWELVE STORIES Candy Rain's harvest is another milestone in our wider 8×8 Adventure. The idea behind this project has always been to document individual plants sharing the same general room and growing environment. We have different genetics. Different phenotypes. Different structures. Different developmental rhythms. And different stories unfolding beside one another. That's what makes following each plant individually so interesting. We can celebrate the differences without trying to turn the whole garden into a competition. Every girl has something of her own to show us. And Candy Rain has given us a beautiful journey to document. 🍬🌱💚 She's our solo survivor, but she's still part of the bigger adventure. Her diary stands on its own, while also contributing to the overall story of the 8×8. And now that she's reached harvest, we get to move forward with another part of that story. One plant at a time. One report at a time. And plenty more photographs along the way! ──────────────────────── ☀️ SAME ROOM, HER OWN JOURNEY Throughout the run, Candy Rain shared the same general 12/12 environment as the other plants in the 8×8 Adventure. The room has included our expanded Future of Grow Black Series lighting setup, with the additional fixtures supplied for testing, alongside the other equipment supporting the garden. But the central idea of the project remains the same. A shared environment doesn't make every plant identical. Each plant has her own genetic expression, structure, and developmental rhythm. That's why we've been documenting Candy Rain separately. We're interested in her individual journey, not in making her fit somebody else's expectations. 🍬🌿💚 A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supporting the lighting side of this adventure and giving us the opportunity to test the expanded setup. More capability, more control, and more opportunities to observe how different plants develop in the same room. And Candy Rain has been part of that story from her own little corner of the 8×8. ──────────────────────── ✂️ NEXT STOP — DRYING, TRIMMING & THE SMOKE REVIEW! Now, my friends, here's where we leave this chapter. Candy Rain has come down, and we're moving into the post-harvest stage. We're drying her as a full plant, and we'll bring you that part of the journey in the next report. We'll also continue documenting the trimming process, with the smoke review and final observations to follow when we're ready to share them. We have plenty more to tell you, so stay tuned! 🌿📸✂️ I know we've been splitting these reports, but I want each plant's harvest, drying, trimming, and final review to have the space it deserves. The harvest is one milestone. The drying stage is another. And the final review is where we'll bring together the remaining observations from her journey. We're not going to rush through those moments just to fit everything into one update. So, Candy Rain's story isn't finished. We're simply turning the page. 🍬💚🌸 ──────────────────────── ❤️ FINAL THOUGHTS — I'M SO GLAD WE GREW YOU, CANDY RAIN! Our Candy Rain Auto by Zamnesia has reached harvest! 🍬👑🌿 And I want to finish this chapter by saying something simple. I'm genuinely happy we were able to grow her. She's been our solo survivor, our individual story within the 8×8 Adventure, and a beautiful plant to follow throughout the journey. We've watched her develop. We've photographed her progress. We've observed the changes. And now, we've reached this important milestone together. That's what makes keeping these diaries worthwhile. It's not just about one photograph or one final result. It's about the whole journey that brought us here. Candy Rain has given us plenty to appreciate, and I'm happy we took the time to document her properly. 💚🍬🌸 So, thank you, beautiful girl, for being part of this adventure. Your growing chapter may be finished, but your story isn't over yet. We'll be back with the drying and trimming report, followed by the smoke review and our final thoughts. Until then, let's appreciate this moment. Our solo survivor has come down! And she absolutely deserves her own spotlight. 🍬👑💚 ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU A massive thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries! 💚🌱 Thank you to Zamnesia for the Candy Rain genetics and for giving us the opportunity to grow and document this beautiful girl.

Bienvenidos cultivadores de marihuana clandestinos y también a los que tienen la fortuna de no serlo!🖐️👨‍🌾👍 Este es un diario semanal de técnicas de cultivo y Bio preparados orgánicos caseros, los cuales llevo experimentando dos años en cultivos de marihuana interior. Esta semana dos en uno: 1) ELABORACIÓN DE AUXINAS EN POLVO EXTRAIDAS DE ALUBIAS NEGRAS GERMINADAS. La primera vez que hice este preparado y lo publiqué en GD fue en Octubre de 2019, lo volví a hacer en Junio de 2020 y llevo dos años usándolo, me ha costado el precio de 2kg de alubias negras. INGREDIENTES: - 1kg de alubias o frijoles negros, porque son las semillas que más concentración de auxinas contienen, comparándolas por ejemplo, con lentejas o cualquier otro tipo de leguminosas, también se puede usar granos de maíz. Preferentemente, se deben usar semillas de alubias nuevas y cultivadas cerca de tu zona. - Agua pura. PROCEDIMIENTO: - Se cubren las alubias con agua y se dejan a remojo durante una noche. - Al día siguiente se separa el agua. Esta agua la puedes usar para riegos, contienen varios minerales. - Se mantiene la humedad en el recipiente de las alubias por unos días, hasta que germinen. Se pueden cubrir con un paño húmedo y compensar la perdida de humedad rociando agua. Se debe observar que la mayoría de las semillas hayan germinado. - Cuando las alubias, en su mayoría estén germinadas, se añade unos dos litros agua pura y se bate todo. - Ahora filtramos con malla y escurrimos los restos sólidos. (Reservamos esta materia para un segundo lavado) - Dejamos reposar el líquido durante dos días, hasta que se vea acumulación de materia en el fondo. - Retirar la mayor cantidad posible de agua clara. - Dejar al sol cubierto con una malla, hasta la completa deshidratación del producto. - Moler y guardar en un sitio seco y oscuro, en estas condiciones puede ser efectivo durante años. -- A los residuos sólidos recuperados del primer filtrado, les añado agua, los bato y los filtro con doble malla, lo embotello y guardo en el frigorífico (no más de 15 días, pues fermenta), lo uso para mezclas de riego. Los residuos finales se aprovechan, para aquellos que tengan tierra en exterior o hagan compost. QUE SON LAS AUXINAS Y USOS: - Las auxinas son un grupo de hormonas vegetales naturales, que regulan varios aspectos del desarrollo y crecimiento de las plantas, en la marihuana sobre todo en el periodo de crecimiento vegetativo y en el comienzo de la floración, después no hacen falta. - Uno de los aspecto más característicos es el efecto que causan en el desarrollo del crecimiento radicular, promoviendo sobre todo la formación de raíces secundarias y adventicias gracias a la estimulación celular que provocan las hormonas. - Otro aspecto de las auxinas es que distribuye su energía principalmente al ápice primario, reprimiendo el desarrollo de las ramas laterales, lo que provoca dominancia apical, pero esto es en el caso de plantas de marihuana sin corte apical y donde se quiere conseguir un cogollo principal monstruoso, su uso puede dar muy buenos resultados en cultivos SOG... pero ¿Qué pasa si hacemos un corte apical para promover el crecimiento de ramas laterales y que por ende, de buenos cogollos en cada una de ellas? Cuando se hace un corte apical al ápice principal las hormonas se reorganizan por la planta, ahora para mandar energía a todas las ramas y sus ápices, promoviendo el crecimiento!.. es un buen momento, después de un corte apical, aplicar auxinas para potenciar el proceso. - Finalmente os dejo un gráfico de la actuación de las auxinas en las diferentes etapas de un cultivo, también se ve la importante relación con otras hormonas (Citoquininas o Ácido Giberélico) y los nutrientes claves que no deben faltar para finalizar todo el proceso hormonal. Las Citoquininas y el ácido Giberélico naturales se encuentra en el agua de coco, y es muy interesante conocer como actúan, en la quinta semana de este diario hablo sobre las propiedades del agua de coco. Bien, una vez dicho lo anterior, yo uso las auxinas en polvo de las siguientes formas. - Como mezcla del sustrato donde germino las semillas y donde mantengo las plántulas hasta el trasplante a la maceta definitiva, para potenciar el enraizamiento. - Por la misma razón, lo espolvoreo sobre el cepellón de raíces de la plántula, en el momento del trasplante a la maceta final. - Lo uso como enraizante de esquejes, impregnando el tallo de polvo antes de enterrarlo. - 10 días después de realizar el producto, todavía tenía en la nevera un litro de auxinas líquidas, provenientes del segundo lavado de los restos de las alubias molidas... y entonces pensé que sería buena idea incorporarlo a un fermentado, y de aquí vienen esta segunda parte... 2) LACTO FERMENTO DE AUXINAS ENRIQUECIDO CON NUTRIENTES Y MINERALES En esta ocasión, para la fermentación anaeróbica, elegí hacerlo con suero de leche como base de microorganismos (Ácido láctico, Bacterias Acidolácticas BAL y Lactobacillus) que harán el trabajo de solubilizar los nutrientes y quelatar los minerales, es un preparado muy eficiente para riegos y aplicaciones foliares, en este caso lo hice enriquecido, mezclando diversos materiales orgánicos con otros minerales. Puedes ver la lista arriba. Sobre esto tengo que decir que después de dos años haciendo diferentes lacto fermentos, ahora los hago más específicos, sin mezclar tantos nutrientes, por ejemplo, si quiero solubilizar guanos, harina de huesos o algas, lo que hago es crear un lacto fermento con cada uno de ellos, en el caso de lacto fermentos con minerales, sigo preparándolo mezclando varios, este preparado es muy eficiente en quelatar minerales, y sobre todo en solubilizar fósforo. PROCEDIMIENTO: A veces consigo suero de oveja de un vecino que hace quesos, a veces hago suero de leche cruda de vaca y cuando no tengo ninguna de estas fuentes, hago suero a partir de leche pasteurizada, como el caso de este. - Mezclo el suero (1l) con la melaza y la miel, lo caliento a unos 30°C. - Peso los ingredientes. Como regla general, en el caso de componentes orgánicos usar del 8 al 10% como máximo, respecto a la cantidad de líquido. En el caso de minerales del 4 al 5%. - Añado la levadura al suero con la melaza y la miel. - Añado los componentes secos al barril. - Añado el suero con la melaza y la levadura al barril y agito. - Añado el litro de auxinas líquidas y agito bien. - Lo cierro hermético con válvula de gases. - Guardo el barril a oscuras al menos durante 30 días, pero cuanto más tiempo lo mantengas cerrado antes de abrirlo por primera vez el resultado será mejor. La fermentación comienza violentamente a los pocos minutos dura varios días así y después se hace más lenta. USOS: Este es un preparado que uso como complemento a las auxinas en polvo, lo uso para hacer riegos o aplicaciones foliares de disponibilidad inmediata. - Hago aplicaciones foliares en plántulas, en las primeras semanas de vida. - Lo uso al comienzo de la etapa de crecimiento vegetativo en conjunto con agua de coco. - Riego con este preparado después de hacer cortes apicales. - Lo vuelvo a usar en riego en conjunto con el agua de coco al comienzo de la floración, y esta es la última vez que lo uso en un cultivo. Una señal inequívoca de la actuación de las hormonas, es que las plantas son más susceptibles al fototropismo, esto se traduce en una respuesta mayor a la incidencia lumínica, las plantas, sus hojas y brotes se inclinan y se dirigen hacia la mayor fuente de luz. Yo lo he visto muchas veces después de aplicar auxinas. y esto es todo por hoy... 😅 Hasta la próxima semana... GRACIAS POR ESTAR AHÍ, CULTIVADORES!!🖐️👨‍🌾💧💦🌞💡 =================================

🚨 Durbin Thai/Cinderella 99 week 10 update 🚨 🚨 week 10 of veg!! 73 days old!! 🚨 So this is a clone I received on Jan 31st. She has been transplanted from a solo cup 2 a 5 gal pot. She had 2 be topped in her second week of rooting do 2 the top frying from to much light in young clone stage. Since the topping this lady has come 2 life!! She has been defoliated 4 times! Most recent defoliation 3/24! She spent her first month feeding just off nutrients in fox farm soil. On 3/2/22 I gave her her first Gaia Green trio feeding!! She has exploded with growth since!! She was defoliated on 3/27 again. She was given her second feeding of @gaiagreenorganics on 3/02. This lady was defoliated again on 4/10. This is what she looks like today!! 💡 Grow Sponsor💡 @marshydroled__amazon @marsnier #marshydro #TSW2000 Marshydro equipment-- Marshydro- 4x4 grow tent Marshydro- Tsw2000 Marshydro- 6" inline exhaust fan with digital temp and humidity sensor Marshydro- 6" carbon filter Marshydro- 6" Black duct line Other companies in this grow- @foxfarmsoilandfertilizer - 100% ffof @gaiagreenorganics @inkbirdofficial - WiFi temp control @madmanplant- 6" Tent shelves Thanks for stopping by!!

Hey folks. Into week 11 and the ladies are doing very well. Recovering slowly from a fungas gnat infestation that I caught pretty late. I got careless and wasn't really paying attention to the topsoil. Also to boot, this was only an issue once I started to water with molassas. It seem to attract the bugs either via sugar for from the supercharged biosphere. Not sure lol. I treated the topsoil with neem oil drench and applied yellow sticky pads and d.e. powder to the top of the pots. Cheers.

Made little bases for them to keep them off the floor and this will most likely be the last time I change or move them around. Hoping to get a trellis net soon it'll be my first time. If anybody is actually looking at this id appreciate tips.

Day 83 she’s looking beautiful and bulking so fast. The time is coming soon. I can’t wait. She is looking fabulous. Just keeps chugging along. She will begin the ice flushing process soon and she’s so damn heavy she’s being held up.

The ladies are opening up nicely after 48hs of planted (2 days) as normal, the pheno #1 has opened first let's see how they keep developing!

She’s looking and smelling amazing so far! Buds are packing on some weight and I swear everyday there’s more and more tricombs, so excited to see how she turns out :) she currently has some yellowing on the inner leaves and I’ve came to the conclusion that it’s due to underfeeding so I’ve given her a little bit more nutrients than I was prior, couple extra tablespoons total.

this is the end for this RF3 run with the Strawberry Gorilla strain! been really fun growing it but i need bigger stuff for next time 😎 i'm calling an monster grow 2.0 later this year! 😏👌 happy growing all! 😎✌️💚

Sometimes use co2tabs

Die vierte Woche ist um. Sie ist gut im Rennen. 17 Tage noch wenn alles Plan läuft

SuperSativaSeedClub PurplePunchOG Auto Week 6 Weekly update for these three little ladies. They still haven't gone into the flower stage and for an Autoflower is unusual but still no complaints. Maybe they're waiting for another week. Over all health I'd say is good, I did start adding nutes this week at half strength 0.5tsp per gallon. I use the 3 part Flora series from General Hydroponics which seems to do the trick. All in all Happy Growing.
