She is developing nicely, haven’t really been doing much to her, other than tucking some leaves away. Comparing her to her mothers diary, she is pretty much on par in terms of flower development, maybe even slightly ahead, as I decreased the light distance much earlier.

💚 Amnesia Haze Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno B Week 9 | The Tiny Pot That Refuses to Be Tiny 🌱💚 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! I think we have reached the point where I have to officially admit something. This girl is ridiculous. 😂 Not the plant. The pot. She's standing there, proud and tall, at around 135 cm, carrying herself like a perfectly respectable flowering plant... while sitting in only 11 litres of soil. Eleven. Litres. At this point, every time I look at her container, I honestly wonder: Where the hell are all those roots? 😂 Because whatever is happening inside that little pot... it's working. And working hard. 🌱 The Smallest Pot Is Still the Biggest Surprise When we started this experiment, the 11-litre container was something I was genuinely curious about. Most of the other plants in this room are sitting in larger containers. Pheno B got the little one. And I wanted to see what would happen. Well... Now I know. Apparently, what happens is: The plant doesn't care. 😂 She's not behaving like a plant restricted by a tiny container. She's not behaving like a plant struggling to support a large canopy. She's not behaving like a little plant at all. She's behaving like a plant that has decided: "That's my pot. That's enough. Now give me water." And then asks again. And again. 💧 The Thirsty Girl This is probably the characteristic that has fascinated me the most. This little pot is demanding attention. As she continues growing and flowering, her water consumption has become something I simply can't ignore. I'm having to irrigate her twice a day to keep up with what she's demanding. Think about that for a second. An 11-litre pot. A plant around 135 cm tall. And she's drinking as if she's sitting in a much larger root zone. That's what makes this phenotype so interesting. The container is small. The plant isn't. And the appetite certainly isn't. 😂💚 🔬 What Is Happening Down There? Of course, I can only speculate about what is happening inside the substrate. But looking at the plant's behaviour, one thing seems very clear: That little container is being used. The plant is maintaining a large canopy. She's continuing to flower. She's maintaining strong, healthy foliage. And she's demanding frequent irrigation. That makes me wonder just how extensively that small volume of substrate has been colonized by roots. I can almost picture it down there: No empty seats. No vacancy. Fully booked. Roots everywhere. 😂🌱 And that's probably one of the most valuable lessons this phenotype has given me. Container volume is important... but it isn't the only story. 🌿 Small Pot. Big Plant. This is the part that still makes me smile. If you showed me the plant without showing me the pot, I would never guess she was growing in only 11 litres. She's tall. She's beautifully structured. She's carrying plenty of healthy foliage. And the flowering sites continue developing throughout the plant. She doesn't look like a plant that is apologizing for her root volume. Quite the opposite. She looks confident. She looks established. She looks like she owns the place. And then you look down... 11 L. 😂 It's almost like growing a clone in a Solo Cup... except somebody forgot to tell the plant that she's supposed to stay small. 🌸 Flowering Continues While the container story is hilarious, the flowers are the real reason we're watching her. And she's continuing to progress beautifully. The flowering sites are becoming more established, the structure is becoming increasingly defined, and the plant is moving deeper into the flowering cycle with plenty of healthy green still supporting the development. The photographs this week show that progression nicely. There is a beautiful contrast between the mature foliage and the developing flowers. The pistils remain prominent. The flowers continue building. And the plant still has that characteristic balance that made me interested in this phenotype from the beginning. She's not trying to be her sister. She's doing her own thing. And she's doing it very well. 🍃 Still Lush. Still Proud. One of the things I really appreciate about this girl is that the small pot hasn't stopped her from looking like a proper, healthy plant. She's still lush. She's still green. She's still vigorous. She's still producing. And she's still standing proud. There are no apologies here. No: "Sorry, I'm in the small pot." No. She's more like: "Yes, I'm in the small pot. And?" 😂 That's the personality of Pheno B. ✂️ No Need to Turn Her Into Someone Else I'm continuing to look at her as an individual phenotype rather than comparing her to what another plant might be doing. That's been one of the biggest lessons of this entire 8×8 Adventure. The plants don't read the manual. They don't care what the other phenotypes are doing. And they certainly don't care what we think they should look like. Pheno B has created her own balance. She's developed her own architecture. She's found her own rhythm. So my job is simply to observe, document and respond to what she actually shows me. And right now... she's showing me a very healthy, very hungry little giant. 💧 The Root-Zone Lesson This girl has also changed the way I think about small containers. Not because I suddenly believe that small pots are better. Quite the opposite. If anything, this experiment has shown me how much more attention a small root volume can demand. A smaller container gives you less buffering capacity. Less room for water. Less room for nutrients. Less margin for error. And that means you have to pay attention. With Pheno B, that attention has become particularly obvious because the plant is consuming what is available so quickly. She's basically turned the 11-litre container into a full-time job. 😂 And that's an enormous lesson. 🧠 The Lesson: I'm Not Doing This Again And now we arrive at my conclusion. After watching this girl grow... After watching her reach approximately 135 cm... After watching her flower... After watching her demand irrigation twice a day... After watching that tiny container apparently become a completely packed root zone... I have learned something very important. I'm not doing small pots in soil again. 😂 At least... not voluntarily. Because this is ridiculous. The plant keeps growing. The plant keeps drinking. The plant keeps demanding. And I'm standing there looking at this tiny pot thinking: "How are you possibly fitting all of that in there?" 😂🌱 But that's precisely why I'm glad I did the experiment. Because now I know. 💡 Same Room. Same Adventure. Different Lesson. And once again, this is exactly what makes the 8×8 Adventure so much fun. Twelve plants. One room. One general growing philosophy. One 12/12-from-seed experiment. And every phenotype finds a different way to teach me something. Pheno B decided hers would be: "Never underestimate a small root zone." She's been teaching me about plant size versus container size. About irrigation demand. About root-zone management. About genetic differences. And about the fact that sometimes the plant completely ignores what you thought the experiment was going to show you. I thought I was testing a small pot. Instead, the plant tested me. 😂💚 🌡️ Current Conditions The current GrowDiaries data shows: 🌸 Flowering: Week 9 📏 Height: 135 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 🌬️ CO₂: 639 ppm ? Pot size: 11 L 💧 Watering: approximately 1.2 L per plant / 24h in the current log, with irrigation frequency requiring two watering events The environment remains consistent. And that consistency makes the behaviour of this phenotype even more interesting. Same room. Same conditions. Tiny pot. Big plant. 📸 This Week's Gallery I took another good look at this girl through the camera this week, and I think the photographs capture her personality perfectly. The full-plant photographs show that she's absolutely not a small plant. The closer shots show the developing flowers and healthy foliage. And then there are those photographs where you can see the relationship between her size and her container. That's the photograph that tells the whole story. 135 cm of plant. 11 litres of soil. 😂 It's almost comical. But it's also fascinating. Because this isn't a little plant surviving in a tiny container. This is a substantial flowering plant that has somehow made that little root zone work incredibly hard for her. 🌱 The Little Pot That Could If I had to rename this phenotype today, I think I'd call her: The Little Pot That Could. Because she keeps proving that she can. She can grow. She can flower. She can build. She can drink. She can demand. And she can apparently turn a tiny container into a very busy underground city. 😂🌱 She's one of the most educational plants in this entire run. Not necessarily because she's the biggest. Not because she's the fastest. But because she's making me question assumptions I thought I already understood. And that's exactly what a good experiment should do. 🔮 Looking Ahead We're now entering another interesting stage of the flowering cycle. I'll continue watching her flower development closely. I'll continue paying attention to the root-zone behaviour. And, most importantly... I'll continue trying to keep up with this girl's thirst. 😂 Because apparently, 11 litres is enough for her. I just need to keep convincing myself of that. Every. Single. Day. 💚 Small Pot. Big Lesson. Pheno B started this adventure as the plant with the smaller container. Today, she's standing around 135 cm tall, flowering beautifully and demanding irrigation with the appetite of a plant that apparently believes she's growing in the ground. And I absolutely love it. Because this is why we experiment. Sometimes the result confirms what you expected. Sometimes it surprises you. And sometimes it looks you straight in the face and says: "You thought this little pot was going to stop me?" 😂💚 Well... No. Apparently not. She keeps standing. She keeps growing. She keeps flowering. She keeps drinking. And she keeps teaching me. One thing is certain: The pot may be tiny. The plant is definitely not. And after this experience... I have a feeling my future soil containers are going to be considerably bigger. 😂🌱 🙏 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries — for providing the platform where we can document these experiments, compare phenotypes and learn together. 🌱 Zamnesia — for providing the genetics behind this fascinating Amnesia Haze Auto phenotype. 💜 Plagron — for the nutrition supporting this adventure. 💡 Future of Grow LED — for powering the room and keeping the light side of this experiment moving. 🌿 TrolMaster — for helping maintain and monitor the environment and giving me another window into what is happening around these plants. ✨ Lumiflora — for bringing the under-canopy lighting into the experiment and adding another fascinating variable to observe. And thank you to everyone following along, commenting, asking questions and sharing this journey with me. This girl has given me one of the biggest lessons of the entire 8×8 Adventure. Don't judge the plant by the size of the pot. Because sometimes... the little pot contains a freaking jungle. 😂🌱💚 She may be living in only 11 litres... but she's certainly not living small. Growers Love, my friends! 💚🌱

The plants look stunning, beautiful strain to grow and work with for sure, I cannot wait to smoke those buds, the fragrance has instantly make me want to run her again most definitely, the stretch has been really noticeable and and both phenos have a lot of flowrs, looks very productive plants, looks like a solid strain, both phenos smell the exact same, this 4th week of flower it's gonna be very exciting, I only water 💦 the medium when dry and that's it, FLO Living soil blends does a sensational performance keeping your plants well fed all the way from seed and also provides you amazing results in terms of quality of the flowers, the smell is so pure and it makes every strain perform to its best, I'm definitely in love with this living soil blend, and also in love with this couple of badazz OG cheese guys. Please stay tuned to see how this ladies keep developing! ❤️💚✌️

So I left for a week and had a trusted friend take over watering duties. A few things of note: I was concerned over overheating the grow so I turned the power down to 75% and ran the light up another 6 inches. This had the unfortunate effect of less airflow and cooler temps so I got powdery mildew that I would be fighting for the remainder of the grow. That aside, the plants looked way more mature when I returned home, with nice trichome development and density.

Mais uma semana de poda top e defoliação. As plantas que revegetaram , já voltaram a floração, estão em boa recuperação. Difícil ter que segurar a vega sem poder mudar pra flora pela falta de espaço.

day 90 - I think I must br super-close to harvest, but newbie first grow nerves have set in, and so will ask the community (again) if the time is right to harvest. The white pistils have started to turn brown, but I'm not sure if I'm looking at the right thing, as I'm not sure that pistils are the same things as trichomes, so not even sure I'm looking at the right thing under the loupe. haven't done this weeks feed yet. Also, ph has dropped quite dramtically to 5.23, so want to get on top of that if it's not yet harvest day. ppm has also halved since the beginning of the week, so not sure if thats a good or bad thing.

Hello growers, I haven't shown you my plants for three weeks, I'm ashamed, I don't know what they are like, I let one dry and it weighs 5.68g, which is ridiculous... The second is still blooming and I have the impression that nothing will happen to it. .

@FAST_BUDS, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-18. Week 5 starts. Added new video. Girl Nr 1 is 46 cm high and Nr 2 is 33 cm. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-19. 2 new fans is installed in the grow room. Added pic and video. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-20. Kl 10.00. New video. The Nr1 girl is 52 cm high and Nr 2 is 32 cm. Kl 23.00. Did some massive defoliation, added video and pics ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-09-22. The girls have recovered well after my massive defoliation. Girl number 1 is now 56 cm tall and number 2 is 35 cm. They have received 6 liters of water and nutrition today. --------------------------------------------------------------

Semana 10 de floración: Los valores en el drenaje del riego, siguen altos, la EC midió 1650 ppm y el ph me dio 6.1,( bajo el valor del ph pero no tanto las ppm ) Los cogollos se siguen cargando de resina y aumentando en tamaño , el aroma es rico dulce, afrutado. El camino que queda es largo, pero la planta va respondiendo relativamente bien.

---GENERAL COMMENT--- Girls are at day 4 technically, but i like to update Sunday always, so keep that in mind, is 1/2 a week now. From germination to soil emerging took 3-4 days, no issues at all. 100% germination rate from multiple breeders till now. I will try my best to do a stress free grow again, so will grow mainly naturally. ---RQS EASY BUD--- Ironically the Easy bud is developing better and growing faster than her sister. ---DAY 10 UPDATE--- Over some days she got volume, just started to use RECHARGE, and wow, that thing works, 48H you could tell something is different, since watering with it the stem is thicker and is growing more vigorous, lets see how it will impact overall! ---DAY 14 UPDATE. WEEK 2 FINAL--- This is the last day of this week and this girl is absolutely amazing, she grew a lot, showing already the intension of shooting up more stems, i'm very happy with her, it has been a delight to grow, response in very good. Voodoo juice is of by now, will keep the recharge maintenance every other watering as i'm loving it. Feeding program will start soon!

Things seem to be going smoothly! This next week I’m going to start using some nutrients and actually measuring how much water I give each of these lovely ladies! Will attempt to do some low stress training for the next update! Managed to get my humidity up thanks to some great ideas from my dude Atomic_Water!

hi guys the little ones are progressing well a little tropical mirage has turned around and is taking a little longer all in all a natural selection proceeds automatically revealing to us which plants will then be taken for large pots and any seeds.

Day 51, 4th of November 2020: The 3rd day since the lamp switched to be 12/12. I raised up the nutrition intake as it can be seen above only the BioBizz family 2ml/l and removed some LST because the plants remain in shape or just set a bit but nothing significant.... They look good and strech is on the way..... Nothing really to report there is crazy 2-3 weeks from now ;)
