Very impressed with this week's growth. Very excited for the weeks ahead let the budding begin.

This baby is a beast right now I neglected how this week because of putting in extra hours at work. When I got home yesterday the pot was completely dry and the bottom leaves started to yellow . But I know she’ll bounce right back with some TLC .

ritical Purple Kush was harvested on day 65 of flowering. This plant was a joy to grow, with no major issues throughout the cycle. The buds are dense, beautifully colored, and carry a delightful sweet, earthy aroma with citrus undertones. Can't wait to see how it cures—it promises to be an exceptional smoke!

🗓️ Week 16: 3/16 - 3/22 📆 Week 6 of 12/12 👃☺️ Frosty Terpy Goodness!!!

Harvest done, plant is drying. 116 days from seed: 51 days veg + 65 days flora

Hemos empezado un cultivo con semillas del banco Sweet Seeds y toda la gama de nutrientes y coco premium de Plagron. Es nuestra primera vez con coco y esta marca de nutrientes pero nos va a sorprender para bien! Primero diluimos siete gotas de seedbooster plus en un litro de agua y dejamos la semilla en esa dilución 12 horas. Esa misma agua la usaremos para empapar el papel donde pondremos a germinar las semillas. Al segundo día ya tenemos las semillas nacidas, y los líquidos de riego los haremos a un ph de 5,8 y usaremos power roots, silice rock y pure zym para cada riego con una EC de 0,5. Una vez a la semana haremos una pulverización de vita start y otro día a la semana vita race. Hacemos una dilución de estos mismos de 1 ml por cada litro de agua para pulverizar dejando bien empapadas las hojas. Vita start nos aporta un npk bajo para nuestras pequeñas y vita race le aporta hierro, de manera que con ellas conseguimos un mejor enraizamiento, ramificación y un color sano de nuestras pequeñas en sus hojas. Tendremos que ir subiendo el nivel de la Ec, ya que pecaremos de cautos en comida al no haber usado nunca coco antes.😎

Cant wait to taste her 😋 smell is intoxicating in a good way..

Found out the water I was using had a ph of at least 7 instead of 6.5 like I had thought. I also had a cal mag deficiency from using LEDs and reverse osmosis water. Now I have a ph tester to prevent the first issue and cal mag for the second.

The Pineapple Express is ready to come out soon and has started her flush with crystal clear , it tastes as good as it looks , I’ve pulled a bit more off to smoke ( the last pic ) . She’s got some purple coming out and is absolutely stacked in trichomes and sticky to the touch . The Gorilla Zkittles is another 2 weeks behind and will love getting the place to herself next week , she’s so stinky it burns your nose but every now and then that fruit orchards smell will come thru , she’s starting to fill out nicely and is standing a bit over 1.2 metres, I’ll spread her out some next week when I have the space and keep feeding her for another two weeks . For now it’s drier sheets at the exhaust vent and and giving these two a great finish.

For weeks 9-10-11-12: It was now May 2020 and the ambient temperatures combined with no exhaust fans were raising temperatures to almost 30 degrees celcius. Way too much. So I rushed to find an oscillating fan and also a so-called inline fan with carbon filter for the smells that started to develop and for exhaust of hot air, trying to control too high temps.

Slow growth for week 2 due to hot weather outside thus impacting indoors(heat spikes). There inside a small couboard at the moment I'm using biobizz Light Soil and 0.5ml of biobizz grow increasingly to 1ml next week3 then will be adding biobizz flower and a pk 13/14 booster in flower and a ripening solution in late Flower.

Candy is doing well. She had a ph jump and some cal mag signs showed a little. She should be good to go now. I will be topping her soon. She is picking up the pace she is growing. Thank you Divine Seeds, Athena, and Spider Farmer. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

They are shorties but are getting packed! 😍 Booth seem on schedule for chop in a couple weeks. 😋 One last for fattening and another to flush it! 😎 💚💛❤️

They are swelling nicely and rock hard already, could imagine in 4 more weeks the density 👀 ... the terpene I find is like bubblegum citrus pine and slight gassy.

Low yeild for 15 week cycle but it is what it is. I'm certain it would have been amazing if I'd have gave it everything I had. Grownn in a 2x2 and was neglected. Was only watered a handful of times and gave nutrients even less. Low yeild but wasn't too bothered as this was just a novelty grow for me and didn't really need the yeild from it.

💜 Purple CousKush Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 11 ✨ Still a Glamorous Girl — Frosty, Fading & Possibly Entering Her Final Chapter Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And honestly... there isn't a huge amount to say this week. And I mean that as a compliment. 😂💜 Purple CousKush Pheno A is still doing exactly what she has been doing so beautifully: Growing. Flowering. Frosting. And looking absolutely fucking gorgeous. She's still a glamorous plant. Actually... the frost levels on this girl are getting a little ridiculous. ❄️💜✨ At this stage of the adventure, most of the plants are essentially in auto mode. They're doing their thing. They're following their own rhythm. They're developing their flowers. And we're not trying to constantly interfere with that process. There's no major training. No major reshaping. No unnecessary intervention. We observe. We maintain. We provide. And we let the plants finish their stories. And Purple CousKush? She may be starting to tell us that her story is getting close to the final chapters. 🌸 ──────────────────────── 🌱 The 8×8 Adventure — When the Plants Start Writing the Ending For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure. The concept is simple: Twelve different plants. One room. Essentially the same environment. Same general lighting strategy. Same 12/12 schedule. Same irrigation philosophy. Same nutritional program. Same grower. But different genetics. Different phenotypes. Different expressions. Different rhythms. And now we're reaching one of the most interesting parts of the experiment. The plants are starting to show us not only who they are... but how they want to finish. Some are still pushing hard. Some are still developing. Some are moving faster. Some are moving slower. And some are starting to say: "Okay... I think I'm getting ready to leave." 😂 Purple CousKush Pheno A appears to be one of those girls. ──────────────────────── 💜 The Glamour Girl Is Still Shining Last week I called her glamorous. This week? The title still fits perfectly. She's beautiful. She's balanced. She's elegant. And she's absolutely covered in frost. ❄️❄️❄️ Honestly... the resin production on this girl is becoming one of the first things I notice when I look at her. You don't have to search for it. You don't have to wonder whether she's getting frosty. She's basically announcing it. 😂💜 The flowers have that sparkling appearance that makes you want to get closer and closer with the camera. And the closer you get... the crazier it becomes. Trichomes everywhere. Resin-covered surfaces. Beautiful flowering structures. Tiny details catching the light. This is one seriously frosty girl. And I absolutely love it. ──────────────────────── ❄️ Frost Levels: Completely Ridiculous Let's just give this its own section. Because... wow. 😂❄️💜 The frost on Purple CousKush Pheno A is absolutely out of this world. She's reaching that stage where the flowers almost stop looking like they're simply covered in resin... and start looking like the resin is part of the flower itself. Every angle seems to reveal another layer. And this is exactly why I love having the camera around during this stage. The naked eye sees a beautiful flowering plant. The macro lens says: "Hold my beer." 😂📸❄️ Suddenly you see an entire world of tiny structures. Trichomes. Resin. Pistils. Calyxes. Sugar leaves. Texture. Light reflecting off everything. And Purple CousKush is giving us plenty to photograph. ──────────────────────── 🌸 The Flowers Are Looking More Mature The flowers themselves are continuing to develop nicely. They're established now. We're well beyond the stage of wondering what the plant is going to look like. She's showing us. And she's showing us beautifully. The structures are substantial. The flower sites are well defined. The resin is heavy. And there's a clear sense that the plant is moving toward maturity. This is one of those stages where the changes from week to week can become more subtle. We're not necessarily looking for dramatic new growth anymore. We're watching for refinement. Maturation. Density. Resin. Colour. And those little signs that tell us the plant is moving toward the end of her journey. And this girl has started giving us one of those signs. ──────────────────────── 🍂 She's Starting to Fade This is probably the biggest change I'm seeing this week. Purple CousKush Pheno A has started fading. And honestly? I was expecting it sooner or later. She's beginning to show those visual signs that she's moving into a later stage of flower. And that's what makes me think she may be approaching her final run. Not necessarily tomorrow. Not necessarily next week. I'm not putting a date on it. But she's definitely giving me the impression that she's beginning to wind things down. She's basically saying: "I've done a lot of work here. I might be getting ready to clock out." 😂💜 And I'm listening. ──────────────────────── 🌱 The Final Stage Is Starting to Show One of the things I enjoy about growing is that plants don't always need to tell you exactly what's happening. Sometimes they simply show you. The overall appearance changes. The foliage begins to fade. The flowers look increasingly mature. The plant's energy seems to shift. And eventually you start seeing a very different version of the plant compared with the one you met earlier in the run. That's what I'm beginning to see here. Purple CousKush isn't looking unhealthy. She's looking like a flowering plant approaching the later part of her journey. There's a difference. And it's an important one. So for now... we observe. We don't panic. We don't start making unnecessary changes just because the leaves are changing colour. We simply acknowledge what the plant is showing us. And this girl is showing us: "Final chapter may be coming." 💜🌸 ──────────────────────── 💧 Nutrition — We May Be Getting Close The room is still following the same nutritional strategy. The current program remains: 🌸 Plagron Terra Bloom — 2.3 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L ✨ Plagron Green Sensation — 1 ml/L 🍯 Plagron Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH adjustment as required Current solution strength: ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm But... because Purple CousKush is already showing signs of entering this later stage, I'm starting to think about the next step. I may begin reducing the nutritional intensity next week. Possibly for her. Possibly across the room, depending on how the other girls are progressing. I'm not making that decision yet. And that's intentional. We're watching the plants first. Then we'll decide. That's one of the nice things about having twelve individual diaries. Each phenotype can tell us something slightly different. And Purple CousKush is definitely starting to tell us something. ──────────────────────── 💡 Still Under the Same Sun The lighting environment remains the same. The Future of Grow Black Series LEDs continue providing the main overhead lighting, with the additional fixtures now part of the upgraded lighting setup. We've already adjusted the output to approximately 59% from the plug after adding the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures. We're working around: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with intensity naturally changing according to plant height and position. And Purple CousKush continues making absolutely beautiful use of those photons. She's not suddenly changing her architecture. She's not trying to stretch. She's simply continuing to finish what she started. And under that lighting... the frost is looking spectacular. ❄️💜✨ A huge thank you again to Future of Grow for supplying the additional fixtures for us to test during this adventure. Having the additional lighting capacity has been a really interesting part of this experiment. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Same Room. Same Conditions. Different Ending Signals. This is another part of the 8×8 Adventure that I find fascinating. The room is the same. The general environment is the same. The lighting is the same. The nutrition is the same. The irrigation philosophy is the same. And yet... the plants don't necessarily reach the same stage at the same time. Purple CousKush is showing us signs that she's beginning to wind down. Another plant might still be charging ahead. Another might be somewhere comfortably in between. And that's exactly what we wanted to see. The environment gives them the opportunity. The genetics and individual plants tell us how they use it. Purple CousKush Pheno A is apparently saying: "I've got my flowers. I've got my frost. I've had my fun. Maybe it's almost time." 😂💜 ──────────────────────── ✂️ And Still... Nothing Major to Do At this point, there really isn't much for me to do physically. And that's okay. The structure is established. The flowers are formed. The plant is progressing. The fading has begun. So we're not going to start inventing work. No unnecessary defoliation. No dramatic reshaping. No last-minute gymnastics. 😂 She's doing what she needs to do. Our job now is mostly observation and maintaining consistency. Sometimes the best grow diary update is: "I didn't touch her. She looked amazing. Next." 😂💜 ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Week 11 Conditions The overall room conditions remain consistent with the latest 8×8 setup: 🌸 Flowering: Week 11 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 💡 Future of Grow Black Series LEDs: upgraded setup 💡 Approx. power after adjustment: ~59% from the plug ☀️ Upper-canopy PPFD: ~1,500 🌡️ Day temperature: ~26.5°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~26°C 💧 Relative humidity: ~61% ⚗️ pH: ~6.02 ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: ~25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~25°C 🌬️ CO₂: ~693 ppm 🌱 Pot size: 15 L 💦 Irrigation: ~1.45 L per plant / 24h Same room. Same environment. Same lighting evolution. Same nutritional evolution. And a plant beginning to show her own timing. ──────────────────────── 🔬 This Is Why Individual Diaries Matter If you only looked at the entire room, you might simply say: "Week 11. They're flowering." But when you follow each phenotype individually... you see much more. Purple CousKush Pheno A is telling a different story. She's a glamorous, medium-sized plant. Beautifully structured. Extremely frosty. And now beginning to fade. That's information. That's part of the experiment. And that's why I love documenting these girls individually. Because the room gives us the broad picture... but each plant gives us the details. And Purple CousKush has some very beautiful details. ──────────────────────── 📸 This Girl Was Made for Macro Honestly... the frost alone makes her worth putting in front of the camera. 😂📸❄️ The full-plant photographs show the architecture. The closer shots show the flowers. And the macro photographs? That's where she really starts showing off. The resin. The trichomes. The textures. The little details that you simply cannot appreciate from across the room. Purple CousKush Pheno A is one of those plants where the camera keeps making me stop and look. And every time I zoom in... there's another layer. Another sparkling surface. Another beautiful little structure. Another reminder of just how incredible flowering plants can be. ──────────────────────── 💜 A Glamorous Girl Approaching Her Goodbye There's something slightly bittersweet about this stage. Because when you start noticing a plant entering her final stretch... you realize the journey you've been following for weeks is eventually going to end. We've watched her grow. We've watched her develop. We've watched the flowers appear. We've watched the frost build. We've watched her become what she is now. And now... we may be approaching the final chapter. But we're not rushing it. Absolutely not. We'll let her tell us when she's ready. For now, she's still shining. Still beautiful. Still absolutely covered in frost. And still giving us plenty to enjoy. 💜❄️✨ ──────────────────────── 🔭 Looking Ahead So what happens next? Honestly... we'll see. 😂 I'm keeping an eye on the fading. I'm watching the flowers. I'm watching the overall maturity. And I'm considering whether next week will be the moment to begin reducing the nutritional input for her, or whether the room as a whole will be ready for that transition. No rush. No forced schedule. No arbitrary finish line. The plants will tell us. And Purple CousKush is already starting to speak. She's saying: "I'm getting close." So we'll listen. ──────────────────────── ✨ Final Thoughts — Let This Glamorous Girl Shine Week 11. And Purple CousKush Pheno A is still absolutely beautiful. Honestly... she doesn't need a complicated report this week. She's a glamour of a plant. 💜✨ She's frosty beyond reason. She's beautifully structured. She's progressing. She's beginning to fade. And she's potentially entering the final stage of her journey. That's really the story. The room is in auto mode. The plants are doing their thing. We're not forcing anything. We're not constantly touching them. We're simply watching them mature. And this girl? She's starting to show us that she may be getting ready for her final chapter. Maybe next week we'll see more. Maybe the fading will progress. Maybe she'll tell us even more clearly that she's ready. We'll see. But for now... I'm just enjoying her. Looking at her flowers. Looking at that ridiculous frost. Taking photographs. And thinking: "Damn... you're beautiful." 😂💜❄️ That's Purple CousKush Pheno A. No drama. No complaints. Just a glamorous girl doing exactly what she wants to do. And now... possibly getting ready to say goodbye. But not quite yet. There's still a little more story to write. So let's give her the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's appreciate this beautiful phenotype for exactly what she is. Frosty. Elegant. Beautiful. And possibly entering the final stretch. 💜🌸❄️✨ Keep shining, Purple CousKush. You've earned every bit of that spotlight. ──────────────────────── 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document this 8×8 Adventure and follow these individual phenotypes through every stage of their journey.
