always love growing do si dos, very reliable strain, euphoric

11/17: I fed today but didn't have time for much of a photo session. Gave them One, Signal, Sweet & Sticky, Cha Ching, and started them on LiquidSoil. 11/19: Still fattening, and beginning to frost up as well.

good strain for symptom relief while staying mentally present. potent yet chill when treated well from seed to cure. hoping to try growing this strain outdoors in the future. this was a fun grow, thanks for looking. cheers

Day 28 - These ladies are growing like crazy! 2 of them are already almost as tall as my white widow autos that are about 2 weeks ahead! Day 30 - Still stretching like crazy, starting to look much better though I have to say! Day 32 - Ladies are starting to get nice & purple!

Growing strong cut 13clones today and transplanted the two biguns loving how they are turning out

Veg32, gran defoliación y Lollipop, riego con 2.0 EC y 6.2 pH. Están entre 25~28 centímetros de altura. En esta misma etapa en el cultivo anterior, estaban solo de 20cm, eso quiere decir que hasta ahora el crecimiento ha sido más eficiente.

one of the fastest auto on the whole planet. this baby already started forming big buds in week 5.. that’s crazy

March 3 Start of week 6 pistils turn brown already buds need to get fat now march 7 buds start to swell now

This week all I wanted to see some kind of growth and I kinda see it, they both still look sad , the first plant looks like it's doing "ok" I do see new roots developing so that's a good sign. The 2nd plant still some brownin' appears on some leaves I don't know BUT I do see new roots growing on her my question is: should I still keep her going? OR let her get the axe? The deficiency still appears and I've done everything on the book but don't wonna give up on her (just yet) but I really don't know what to do with her? I wonna give her sometime see what she tells me or if u guys know what am doing wrong I would greatly appreciate

📆 Semana 6 El mal tiempo persiste 🌧️, con lluvias continuas y escasa luz, lo que sigue afectando el desarrollo de la planta. Aunque el crecimiento sigue siendo lento, se mantiene sana y sin signos de estrés o deficiencias. Los nudos continúan formándose de manera adecuada, aunque con menos vigor del esperado. Esta semana se traslada a su lugar definitivo, buscando mejorar su desarrollo cuando el clima acompañe. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

Jack Herer auto is doing really good. Her colas are starting to stack. Curious to how well she will do under a 100 watt light. Everything is going good at the moment. Thank you ILGM, and Athena nutrition. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Week 13. Looks good, smells good, doesn't strech, just getting fatter, ... the fatter the better) Trichoms on some leaves are getting ember already. That's a surprize, as I initially expected it to flower 9-10 weeks, and so far she is through 5 weeks of floweri ng. Anyways, not foing to rush so far, I believe there's more potential in it. Waterring /feeding is the same, 1 liter every 2 days with 5ml of plagron flowering smthn) Thank you for checking!

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno B Week 10 | Let This Beautiful Girl Shine 🌿🌸💡 Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And once again... Cash Express Pheno B is simply doing her thing. No drama. No complaints. No unnecessary changes. Just growing. Beautifully. At her own rhythm. And honestly, the more I look at this girl, the more I appreciate what she's becoming. She's still carrying that deep, lush green through her leaves, and the flowering sites are becoming increasingly defined. The buds are developing beautifully. The hairs are becoming more abundant. The structure is becoming easier to read. And she's starting to look like exactly what she has been telling us she wanted to become all along. A beautiful, vigorous Cash Express phenotype with a personality entirely her own. So this week... we're not here to reinvent her. We're here to appreciate her. We're here to look at what she's doing. And we're definitely going to give her the spotlight she deserves. 🚂🌿🌸🔥 🌱 Week 10 – Still Doing Her Thing Cash Express Pheno B is now around 93 cm tall. And compared with her sister, that difference continues to be one of the interesting parts of this diary. Pheno A has her own compact character. Pheno B chose a different route. She's taller. She's more extended. She's occupying her space differently. But what's really important is that she isn't simply getting taller for the sake of getting taller. She's building. She's developing. She's creating flowering structure throughout that architecture. And now, at Week 10, that structure is becoming increasingly beautiful. She's not rushing. She's not trying to keep up with anybody else in the room. She's simply continuing along her own path. And that's something I've learned to appreciate enormously during this adventure. The plant sets the rhythm. We observe. We support. And we let her show us what she's capable of. 🌿 That Deep, Lush Green One of the first things that catches my attention this week is the foliage. That deep, lush green is absolutely beautiful. There's something very satisfying about seeing a plant carrying that much healthy, vibrant foliage while simultaneously developing her flowers. The leaves aren't just background decoration. They're the working machinery of the plant. They're capturing light. They're processing photons. They're driving photosynthesis. And ultimately, they're helping provide the energy that supports everything we're seeing happen throughout the plant. So when I look at this beautiful green canopy, I'm not just seeing colour. I'm seeing a plant with an active photosynthetic engine. And Cash Express Pheno B is certainly keeping hers running. 🌿💚 💡 Photons – The Invisible Part of the Story This week I really want to spend some time talking about something we can't actually see. Photons. We can see the LEDs. We can see the leaves. We can see the flowers. But we can't see the individual photons moving through the room. And yet they're involved in almost everything we're documenting. Every day, the Future of Grow Black Series LEDs are creating our artificial sun. Photons leave those LEDs. They travel through the room. They reach the canopy. And when they encounter the leaves, that light becomes usable energy through photosynthesis. That's the invisible part of this entire story. When we're looking at Cash Express and admiring her green leaves, her developing flowers and her structure... we're really looking at the visible result of an enormous number of tiny interactions between the plant and the light. And that's pretty damn fascinating. 💡🌿 ☀️ Future of Grow – Bringing the Sun Indoors The Future of Grow LEDs continue to provide the primary illumination for the room. And one of the things I love about this 8×8 experiment is that we're putting twelve very different plants underneath the same artificial sun. The photons don't know which plant they're hitting. 😂 They simply arrive. The genetics decide what happens next. And that's where things become interesting. One phenotype stretches. Another stays compact. One builds a certain flower structure. Another develops differently. One plant seems to want to occupy every available centimetre. Another is perfectly happy taking her time. Same room. Same photons. Different answers. Cash Express Pheno B has clearly chosen her own answer. And I'm very happy with what she's showing us. 💡 Photons Don't Only Belong to the Top Canopy There's another part of the lighting strategy that becomes increasingly interesting as the plants develop. A flowering plant is a three-dimensional object. It's not just a flat canopy underneath a lamp. There are leaves and flowers at different heights. There are branches running through different levels. There are inner areas. Outer areas. Upper areas. Lower areas. And that's where our Lumiflora lighting becomes particularly valuable. We're bringing additional light into parts of the canopy that naturally don't receive the same exposure as the uppermost leaves. So we're not thinking only about: "How much light is hitting the top?" We're also thinking about: "Where else can useful photons go?" And that's a fascinating way to look at the room. Light is moving through the garden. Leaves are intercepting it. Some photons are absorbed. Some pass deeper into the canopy. Some reach lower foliage and flowers. And the entire structure becomes a constantly changing landscape of light. That's why canopy architecture matters so much. We're not just growing plants. We're managing a three-dimensional relationship between plants, photons and space. 💡🌿🌸 🌸 The Buds Are Starting to Tell Their Story And then... of course... we get to the flowers. This is where Cash Express Pheno B is really becoming beautiful. The buds are developing a much more recognizable structure now. Those hairs are becoming increasingly obvious. They're emerging from the flowers in abundance, giving the buds that beautiful textured appearance. And the more I look at the photographs, the more I can see the flower formation becoming defined. We're moving further away from those early flowering points and increasingly toward recognizable bud structures. There's still plenty of development ahead. But we're getting there. Slowly. Beautifully. And very much in her own style. 🌸🔥 ? Those Beautiful Hairs I have to give the pistils their own little moment this week. Because they're beautiful. The amount of fresh hairs developing throughout the flowers really catches the eye. And this is one of those characteristics that makes photographing her so enjoyable. You can see them from a distance. But get the camera closer... and suddenly there's a completely different level of detail. Little hairs emerging from the developing flowers. Individual structures becoming more defined. The flowers becoming more substantial underneath them. It's one of those moments where you realize: She's actually building something here. And she's doing it beautifully. 🌿 No Need to Fight Her Personality This girl has already told us who she is. She's vigorous. She's lush. She's taller than her sister. She's developing a different architecture. And she's moving at her own pace. So why would I try to make her something else? That's one of the lessons I keep coming back to throughout this project. Growing isn't always about imposing a plan on the plant. Sometimes it's about creating a good framework... and then listening. Cash Express Pheno B doesn't need to become Pheno A. She doesn't need to match another plant. She doesn't need to develop according to somebody else's timeline. She's writing her own story. And I'm here to document it. 📸🌿 💨 The Environment – Keeping Things Steady We're continuing to keep the room as stable as possible. Current conditions are approximately: 🌡️ Day temperature: 29.9°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 RH: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: ~639 ppm 💦 Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌡️ Substrate temperature: 26°C 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 📏 Height: ~93 cm Summer continues to make temperature management interesting. 😂☀️ One day wants to be warmer. The next wants to be slightly cooler. But we're doing our best to keep the important parameters consistent and, most importantly, avoid unnecessary fluctuations. We're not chasing perfection. We're chasing stability. And the plants seem quite happy with that approach. ⚗️ Nutrition – Keep Doing What Works The nutritional programme remains essentially unchanged. We're continuing with: Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Plagron Pure Zym – 1 ml/L pH adjustment as required The solution remains around pH 6.0 and approximately 2.0 mS/cm EC. And again... why complicate something that isn't asking to be complicated? She's green. She's developing. She's flowering. She's progressing. So we're allowing consistency to remain one of our biggest tools. 🌸 Growing Beautifully at Her Own Rhythm I think this is probably the phrase that best describes Cash Express Pheno B right now. Her own rhythm. She's not necessarily trying to be the fastest plant in the room. She's not trying to finish before everyone else. She's simply continuing to develop. And that makes the comparison between the twelve plants even more interesting. Because if every plant behaved identically, there wouldn't be much of a phenotype story to tell. Instead, we have twelve personalities. Twelve structures. Twelve relationships with the same environment. And twelve different ways of turning photons into plants. That's the real adventure. 📸 Behind the Lens – More to Discover Every Week The photographs this week really reward getting close. The wide shots show her overall structure. The canopy. The height. The distribution of flowering sites. But the close-ups tell another story. The hairs. The developing flower structure. The textures. The tiny details that become increasingly obvious as flowering progresses. This is why I love documenting the plants individually. A photograph doesn't just preserve what happened. When you build a series over many weeks, it becomes a visual timeline. You can look backward and see exactly how far the plant has travelled. And Cash Express Pheno B has certainly travelled a long way. 💡 The Garden Is Basically a Photon Playground One of the things I find fascinating about the 8×8 room is that we're essentially creating a little controlled ecosystem where light is constantly moving through the garden. The Future of Grow LEDs provide the main source. Lumiflora adds another dimension. The leaves intercept photons. The canopy changes. The plants grow into the available space. And as they grow, they change the way the light moves. So the lighting environment isn't completely static. The plants themselves become part of the lighting system. A leaf can intercept light that would otherwise reach a flower. Another leaf may reflect or transmit some light deeper into the canopy. A branch can change the shadow underneath it. And then we have additional lighting helping illuminate some of those less-exposed areas. It's a constantly evolving relationship. And that's one of the reasons I'm enjoying documenting this run so much. We're not just watching plants grow. We're watching an entire environment evolve with them. 🌿💡🌸 🔮 Looking Ahead For now, the plan remains beautifully simple. Keep observing. Keep the environment steady. Keep the irrigation consistent. Keep nutrition consistent. Keep the photons coming. And let Cash Express Pheno B continue doing what she does. Over the next week, I'll be watching: 🌸 Continued bud formation ? Further pistil development 💎 Increasing resin production 🌿 Healthy, lush foliage 💡 How the developing canopy interacts with the light 💨 Good airflow throughout the structure 📈 Increasing flower density and definition No need to force anything. She's already on her way. 💭 Final Thoughts – Let's Give Her the Spotlight Cash Express Pheno B is becoming one of those plants that gets more interesting every time I look at her. She's tall. She's lush. She's carrying that beautiful deep green. Her buds are developing. Her hairs are becoming beautifully defined. And her structure is increasingly telling us exactly what kind of phenotype she is. She's different from her sister. She's different from the other girls. And that's exactly why she deserves her own diary. The photons are doing their part. The Future of Grow LEDs are providing the artificial sun. Lumiflora is helping us bring that light deeper into the canopy. The environment is being kept as stable as summer allows. The nutrition remains consistent. And Cash Express? She's taking everything we've given her... and turning it into her story. Slowly. Beautifully. Naturally. And I wouldn't change that. So this week, there's no dramatic intervention. No big announcement. No attempt to force her into another shape. Just appreciation. Because sometimes the best thing you can do for a beautiful plant is simply step back... look at her... and say: "Keep doing exactly what you're doing." 🚂🌿🌸💡🔥 Cash Express Pheno B... this spotlight is yours. Let's keep those photons flying. Let's keep watching those flowers develop. And let's see where your own little story takes us next. 🙏 Thank You As always, a huge thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Thank you to Zamnesia for giving us the opportunity to explore these genetics and, most importantly, to see just how differently individual phenotypes can express themselves. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden with the growing media and nutrition throughout this journey. Thank you to Future of Grow for providing the Black Series LEDs powering our artificial sun and filling this room with the photons these girls need to do their thing. 💡🌱 And a special thank you to Lumiflora for helping us bring additional light into the inner and lower parts of the canopy and allowing us to explore just how much more interesting lighting becomes when we stop thinking only about the top of the plant. And of course... thank you to everyone following along on GrowDiaries. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person stopping by to see how the girls are doing. You're all part of this adventure. Twelve plants. One room. One environment. One artificial sun. And twelve completely different stories. And this particular story? It's Cash Express Pheno B. She's beautiful. She's lush. She's developing. She's doing it her own way. So let's give her what she deserves. The spotlight. 🌸💡 Until next week... Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! 🌱💚 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿🚂🔥

The girls are really starting to look promising! Lady #1 has most certainly stealing the show, although last night I did notice lady #2 starting to flower really well and can't wait to see if she starts her stretch today. I didn't get any pictures of girl #2, just so distracted by #1's progress. I will upload lady #2 tonight! I see at least another 4 - 6 weeks before I'm thinking of harvest, so plenty of time for these ladies to swell up!

Woche 6 --- Sie stretcht sich ordentlich. Momentan verschiebe ich nur die Lampe nach oben und fülle den Wassertank auf. Letzte Woche hat sie ca 9 Liter verbraucht. Hoffentlich wird sie nicht zu hoch, aber zur Not wird sie halt geknickt. Sobald der Stretch durch ist werde ich sie zwecks schimmelprävention Brutal entlauben müssen .

growing happily along, platinum yeti stretching more then sour 76. defoliate day 21 . smell starting to come on, stopped using foliar feed this week, been on top of hitting compost teas every single off watering (1 feed heavy 16 nutes, 1 compost tea when coco dries. repeat).

Greetings my dear Jungletamers, So a major surprise came when @MarsHydroLED contacted us and asked if would like to try out their new SP 3000 light. Being a fan of Mars Hydro for years, we of course accepted their offer. We are totally in love with this light. I was when I saw it in another grower's setup and was in awe of its output and results. So with much pride and thankfulness for the presents the Universe bestowed on us, in the form of MarsHydroLEDS offer and the bountiful harvest of the last grow, (which I am thoroughly enjoying btw, such a great weed to have grown ourselves) we start out on a new adventure that we can't wait to share with you. With many lessons learned from the previous grow, a mighty producing strain in the form of Expert Seeds Gorilla Glue #4, a.k.a Expert Gorilla's and a tweaked super soil mixture, we are setting out to hopefully get over a gram per watt, preferably 1.5. The Setup A 4.5 (140 cm) x 2(70) x 6.2 (200) grow tent, giving me a .98 m2 workspace. This space is customized to my needs. A standing fan will provide airflow through the whole grow, a top fan will help guide cooler air past my lights onto the grow. 3 56 ltr pots will be the home for the plants when they are 2 weeks old, up to then in smaller jars. The Light The leading role and star of the show will be played by the Mars Hydro SP-3000, so kindly provided by MarsHydroLED, which we will test and review here and I might say, endorse. I'm very careful with who I endorse and support these days, but a company with that many wins in design, I'm talking ever since their first range came out in 2009 these guys have been raising the bar for the whole industry, I did not hesitate to support this leading brand. If you want to compete with these guys, you better bring some quality AND affordable pricing. Why do I endorse the SP-3000 without ANY hesitation? It is seriously THE BEST light on the market in this price range and size group. It has an enormously effective output in U/Mol and with 30% less energy waste comparing to older LED lights. Prove me wrong! And with a company holding a considerable market share selling thousands of units every month, competing on price and quality, one would think that customer service would suffer. Of course, also Mars Hydro is not perfect, but check the sheer amount of people that not only praise the light but also the service received, should the light somehow not perform up to par. It is this dedication to their customer base that made this company have a fanbase... Yes, a fanbase with a website and a wiki. So if you are looking to buy new lights, check out the END OF SUMMER OFFER at the Mars-Hydro Global Store on Aliexpress: https://marshydroled.aliexpress.com/ 👈 Check their offers but also their score, they ship from a warehouse near you so you don't have the extra import fees!! Cut out the middleman and have a deal on these lights!! At the moment I write this in August 2021, the lights are 408,20 euro when sent from Germany to the rest of Europe, that's 40 euro cheaper than the other Mars outlets, BUT EVEN 60 euros cheaper than ordering at a grow store!! The Strain: Experts Seeds - Expert Gorilla feminized regular. Don’t let the name fool you because Expert Gorilla is suitable for growers of any skill level. However, you do need to be an experienced smoker because Expert Gorilla is one of the most potent strains on the market. Lineage: Chem Sis x Chocolate Diesel x Sour Dubb Popularity: Extremely Popular Flavor/Aroma Profile: Chocolate, Earthy, Fuel Yield: 400 g/m2 Stress Tolerance: High resistance to disease Potency: 24% THC Flowering time: 58 - 63 days The Soil: Those who saw my Monstercropped Gelato #33 grow (you should see it if you didn't, I'm so proud of that grow), know about my super soil and organic nutrients/ permaculture tea combo that starred in my previous diary. Because of the great results, we are going to use the same recipe, adjusted some more with some new ingredients that will complete the mix and give an even more sustained super soil buffer. 20% Atami Bi-grow (very similar to ocean forest) 20% Atami worm castings 20% Atami Coco Coir 10% Hydrocorn 10% Peat powder 1 cup Fossil seaweed chalk 1 cup bonemeal 1 cup bloodmeal 1 cup Microlife 3-4 teaspoons of epsom salt 3 cups of activated biochar (activated with our own permaculture tea) I just made layers, starting with hydro corn on the bottom to aid airflow/run-off. On this I started layering the coco coir, Bi-grow, peat, castings, and amendments in a way that the more mature the plants get, the more phosphorous and less nitrogen they will find. Every time I made three layers, I would mix them by hand. This way we simulate natural soil, which consists of humic layers, composting plant waste, fungal and microbial life, and nutrients from fossilized sources. The Nutrients I will start with just adding 6.4 PH water, although this soil should buffer ph itself and regulate, after 4 weeks, I'll slowly be adding: - Biobizz Grow - Plagron Alga Grow - Biobizz CalMag - Biobizz Flower - Plagron Alga Flower - Biobizz Topmax - Melasses The Tea Some of you might remember the permaculture tea from my previous grow, I have a short video in my harvest page showing how we make it), it will star again in this grow. - (Rain)water - Comfrey (whole plants) - Dandelion leaves - Roots and leaves from the earlier grow - Minor periwinkle (Finca minor) is a plant we have in our garden, it contains an alkaloid that is associated with increased brain function but also is a light toxin for wee beasties and other unwanted guests like gnats (who hate it). - When flowering I add some wood ash to this mix Thank you for checking in on one of my grows again! Thanks for all the love on my previous grow, check it out if you haven't seen it!! Hug Bud
