She's starting to fatten up nicely! Terps still off the meter,and the roots are ridiculous. Definitely one of the best plants I've ever grown.

Hi Gromie's, well it's the end of another problem free week! Week 9 going into week 10 of veg! I don't usually veg for this long but I'm just trying to get the timing right for perpetual harvest. Plants in flowering tent were harvested & drying now for 5 days, so these girls will be transferred to the flowering tent in the next few days for the start of flowering, I've allready planted new seeds for the following grow, so just trying to get on top of the timing for everything related with perpetual growing. Thinking of setting up a 4x2 tent with a 4 inch extraction fan & filter for drying, so I can cut out around a week, that way as soon as I've harvested & cleaned the tent I can transfer plants from veg instead of having to dry in the flowering tent. Have developed really strong & thick structure's from the H.S.T & L.S.T training. Plants are nice & healthy. Performed 1 last defoliation before they go to flower as they get very bushy quickly.

Week 8 D1 First day NO NUTES day for my garden . They got a bit more than a liter of water each with a bit more run off than usual.. That’s it . I personally don’t over acting with flushing liters of water through my medium . Just a bit more plain pHed water than normal . 💦 Buds are getting weight and already thinking how I could support some of them if needed during those two last weeks. Buds are super dense in both phenotypes . Pheno 1 , the more stretchy one, turns yellow-deep purplish 😅 color on the leaves and on some calyxes . 🔥🍁 Pheno 2 , I really can’t say anything about it , I’m amazed with the structure of the plant and of those dense AF and thick heavy Buds ...ITS THE ONE I GERMINATED LAST ONE ☝️ her monstercroped clones still in rooting dome and wish I see some roots soon , I really want this Pheno alive ✌️✌️ D4 Plants swelling nicely and they full of trichomes Couldn’t resist touching them a bit to feel the density , rock hard and sticky AF 👌 Small video update from my garden tonight , take a look at that frost guys , can’t wait to smoke those beauties 🌺🖤 D5 Got some Macro shots again with that phone lens , good enough to notice some of the trichomes colors . Getting amber , mostly cloudy but still some new clear ones 👌 Seems like there gonna be ready till the end of next week , W9

Northern light day 28 of seeing the world 🤘👊🙏 She got topped a couple of days ago and her lower shoots removed. She got some sunny days but now lots of rain on the way. Transplant after major rain. It’s gazebo time

Stomp my feet for this one but I did not weigh it. Nope, I smoked it. My bad. I started out only smoking a small bud and then one led to another and I got busy, yadda yadda LoL Go to plant #2 for better details.

Gelato x GMO is taking off in the 15 gallon pot, showing rapid growth every day. The Blue MOBs seem to have stopped growing vertically in the 5 gallon buckets and are now filling out existing branches while they all reach for the sun. The 15 gallon Blue MOB seems to still be growing in height as well as filling out existing branches. Heavy rain has been persistent with few days of direct sunlight yet plants are still growing. Massachusetts ended up receiving the tail end of a big storm so I have not had to water them the entire week, the soil has stayed damp and kept the plants hydrated

04/23/2022 I think lemon OG is done Give her a few days more, Biscotti Skunk, grape skunk about 2 -3 weeks out, the Biscotti Skunk has very strong camphor mothballs smell. Not quite sure what to think of her hope buds fill out well. Grape Skunk is doing a bit better but lemon og has performed best in my specific micro climate, others have more flowering to. If I'm going 63 days in flower it might as well be a Sativa variety.

🌿 8×8 Adventure – Harvest Diary 👑 Amnesia Haze Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno A 🔥 THE QUEEN HAS REACHED HARVEST! DENSE FLOWERS, MASSIVE STACKS & 997 PHOTOGRAPHS LATER! 😂📸🌸👑 Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 My friends... WE ARE BACK! 😂😂😂 And yes, we're doing it again. Another harvest, another individual diary, and another report that needed to be divided because apparently, twelve plants weren't enough work already! Welcome to the 8×8 Adventure, where the plants grow, the cameras work overtime, and the photographer occasionally starts questioning his life choices. 😂📸🌿 But honestly? I wouldn't have it any other way. Today, we're giving the spotlight to one of the girls who has made herself impossible to ignore throughout this adventure. Amnesia Haze Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno A. Our Queen of the Yo-Yo World. Our heavy girl. Our beautiful, substantial, flower-loaded lady who has kept us busy documenting her development from the early stages all the way to harvest. 👑🌸🔥 And what a journey this has been! This girl developed an impressive structure, carried substantial flowers throughout her branches, and gave us plenty of reasons to keep the camera ready. As the flowering stage progressed, her flowers continued developing into beautiful, dense structures, with some foxtailing that added another interesting detail to her appearance. And when we started looking closely at the flowers? Well... Let's just say the macro photography department had a very busy week. 😂💎📸 We went deep with this one. VERY deep. In fact, we ended up with 997 stack photographs! Yes, you read that correctly. NINE HUNDRED AND NINETY-SEVEN! 😂😂😂📸 At that point, this wasn't just a harvest documentation session anymore. It was practically a photographic expedition. So, as with the other girls, we're dividing the documentation into separate reports to give every part of the journey the space it deserves. This first chapter is about the harvest, the flowers, the photographs, and the end of her growing journey. We'll continue with the trimming process in the next report. So grab a coffee, get comfortable, and let's give this beautiful Queen her moment! 💚🌿👑 ──────────────────────── 👑 THE QUEEN OF THE YO-YO WORLD — FROM GROWING ROOM TO HARVEST If you've followed this diary from the beginning, you already know that Amnesia Haze Auto Pheno A has never been a plant that goes unnoticed. 😂👑 Throughout the run, she developed a substantial structure and became one of those plants that made us pay close attention to the weight carried by her branches. The support system became part of her story. The flowers became increasingly impressive. And her overall development kept giving us new details to observe and document. She wasn't simply growing quietly in the corner. She was making herself noticed! 🌿🌸⚖️ And now, after following her through the growing and flowering stages, we've reached the harvest. It's always satisfying to arrive at this point in an individual diary. We can look back at the earlier updates, remember how the plant developed, and appreciate the journey that brought us here. With this girl, the combination of her overall structure, her beautiful flowers, and her individual character made her one of the plants I was particularly excited to photograph. And if you've seen the previous updates, you already know why. The Queen has been keeping us busy! 😂👑📸 ──────────────────────── 🌱 A 12/12-FROM-SEED RUN — AND AN AUTOFLOWER WITH HER OWN STORY One of the interesting aspects of this project is our 12/12-from-seed approach. Although Amnesia Haze Auto is an autoflowering variety, we included her in the same general room schedule as the other plants. The room was running on a 12/12 light cycle, and we followed her development within that shared environment. This is an important part of the 8×8 Adventure. We weren't giving every plant a completely separate environment or writing twelve different growing schedules. We were documenting individual plants sharing the same overall project conditions and observing how differently they developed. And this girl certainly gave us plenty to talk about! 😂🌿 She developed substantial structure. Her flowers became beautifully formed and dense. She showed her own individual character as the weeks progressed. And now, we're documenting the harvest and moving into the next stage of her journey. It's another reminder that the name on the seed packet is only the beginning of the story. The individual plant is where the interesting details begin. 👑🌸💚 ──────────────────────── 💎 DENSE FLOWERS, BEAUTIFUL STRUCTURE & A LITTLE FOXTailing Let's talk about the flowers, because they deserve their own spotlight. 🌸💎📸 One of the things that caught my attention with this girl was the way her flowers developed into dense, substantial structures. There was plenty to appreciate when looking at the plant as a whole, but the closer we got with the camera, the more interesting the details became. The individual flower structures. The way the flowers stacked along the branches. The textures and details that become much easier to appreciate in close-up photographs. And, of course, the foxtailing. Some of the flowers developed that characteristic elongated, layered appearance, giving them a slightly different shape from the more compact sections. Foxtailing can occur for different reasons, including genetic tendencies and environmental influences, so I'm not going to pretend we can identify one specific cause simply by looking at photographs. For this diary, it's part of what we observed in this particular phenotype. And visually? It certainly gave us plenty to photograph! 😂📸🌸 The overall result was a beautiful plant carrying dense flowers, with individual structures that made macro photography particularly interesting. And that's what I wanted to capture. Not just the general appearance of the plant, but the details that make her flowers worth looking at more closely. ──────────────────────── 📸 997 STACK PHOTOGRAPHS — YES, NINE HUNDRED AND NINETY-SEVEN! Okay, my friends... We need to talk about the photography. 😂😂😂📸 I knew we had taken a lot of photographs. I knew we had spent plenty of time looking at the flowers. I knew we had gone deep into the macro details. But when the total came to 997 stack photographs, I had to stop for a moment. NINE HUNDRED AND NINETY-SEVEN! 😂💚📸 For anyone unfamiliar with the process, focus stacking involves combining photographs taken with different focus positions to produce an image with greater depth of field than a single photograph would normally provide. When you're photographing tiny details at high magnification, the depth of field can be extremely shallow. A small change in focus can make one part of a flower sharp while another part remains out of focus. Focus stacking gives us a way to bring more of those details into a single final image. But it also means taking and processing a sequence of photographs rather than simply pressing the shutter once and moving on. And with this girl? We went pretty deep! 😂🔬📸 The 997 figure refers to the stack photographs we took for this photographic session, not 997 finished images. Each stack is part of the process of creating the final photographs. And that takes time. A LOT of time. 😂 This is one of the reasons the harvest documentation has become such a project of its own. We're not only growing the plants and following their development. We're also building a visual record of their flowers, structures, and individual characteristics. And sometimes, one plant gives us so many interesting details that the camera simply refuses to go home. This was definitely one of those occasions. 💎🌸📸 ──────────────────────── 🔬 WHY GO SO DEEP WITH THE MACRO PHOTOGRAPHY? Because the closer you look, the more you can appreciate the details that are easy to miss from a distance. A full-plant photograph tells us about the overall structure. A flower portrait gives us a closer look at the shape and arrangement of the flowers. A macro photograph takes us even further into the small details. And focus stacking helps us keep more of those details sharp in the final image. That's what I enjoy about this part of the process. We're not relying on one photograph to tell the entire story. We're using different perspectives to document different aspects of the same plant. The wider photographs give us context. The closer photographs let us appreciate the flowers. And the stacked macro images allow us to explore the details in greater depth. With Amnesia Haze Auto Pheno A, the dense flower structures and their individual shapes gave us plenty to work with. And when you have a plant that catches your attention like this one, it's difficult not to keep going. 😂💚📸 You take one photograph. Then another. Then you notice something else. And suddenly, you've taken enough images to make your computer ask whether you're planning to photograph the entire universe. 😂😂😂🌌 Apparently, the answer was almost yes. ──────────────────────── 📸 A LITTLE TRIP TO THE STUDIO We also brought a branch into the studio for some dedicated photographs. 🌿📸💚 I love doing this because the studio gives us a different way to present the plant. Inside the growing room, the photographs show the plant in context. We can see her structure, her branches, and how the flowers sit throughout the plant. In the studio, we can give an individual branch its own moment. We can concentrate on the details. We can look more closely at the flowers. And we can create a different kind of photographic record to complement the growing-room images. It's not about replacing the full-plant photographs. It's about adding another perspective. The studio photographs allow us to focus on the branch itself and appreciate the flowers without needing to show the entire plant in every image. And with this girl, I think that was absolutely worth doing. 👑🌸💎 She has earned the spotlight, and we were happy to give it to her! ──────────────────────── 🌿 HARVEST DAY — THE END OF ONE CHAPTER, THE BEGINNING OF ANOTHER And then came harvest day. 💚🌿✂️ After all the weeks of observation, the environmental updates, the photographs, and the little details that made this plant so interesting, we reached the end of her growing journey. There's always something special about this moment. The growing diary has followed the plant through different stages, and now we can look at the harvest as the next milestone in that story. With Amnesia Haze Auto Pheno A, we had plenty to document. The overall plant. The branches. The individual flowers. The dense structures. The macro details. And the studio photographs. It was a substantial photographic session, and that is exactly why we're dividing the harvest documentation into separate reports. We want to give the harvest its own space. We want to give the trimming process its own space. And we want to leave room for the later post-harvest observations and smoke review. There's no need to squeeze everything into one enormous update when we can document each stage properly. Especially when we're dealing with nearly a thousand stack photographs! 😂📸 So, for this chapter, we're keeping our attention on the harvest and the photographs from this part of the journey. The next report will continue the story. ──────────────────────── 🌬️ WHOLE-PLANT DRYING — DOCUMENTING THE TRANSITION As part of the post-harvest process, we dried the plants whole. 🌿🌬️ We also took photographs of the drying stage, so the visual record doesn't stop at harvest day. I like having those images because they help connect the growing-room photographs with the later stages of the diary. We see the plant during her growing journey. We see her at harvest. And then we can follow the transition into drying and trimming. Each stage is part of the wider story. For this report, the drying photographs are included as a preview of that transition rather than a complete discussion of the trimming process. We'll give the trimming its own dedicated chapter in the next update. That way, we can keep the reports organised and make it easier for everyone to follow the journey without trying to cover every detail in one place. And with this many photographs? Trust me, my friends, we have plenty to work with! 😂📸💚 ──────────────────────── ✂️ THE TRIMMING STORY IS COMING NEXT! I know some of you are probably already looking at the photographs and wondering what happened next. 😂🌿✂️ And don't worry, we're getting there! We've started documenting the trimming process, and those photographs will be part of the next report. But I want to keep this update focused on the harvest, the flowers, and the photographic work we completed around this stage. The trimming deserves its own space because it's another important part of the post-harvest journey. We'll continue with that in the next chapter, rather than rushing through it here. And after that, we'll have further opportunities to discuss the results of the post-harvest process and share the smoke review when it's ready. One stage at a time, my friends. One report at a time. One very busy camera at a time. 😂😂😂📸 So make sure to keep an eye out for the next update! The Queen's story isn't finished yet. 👑💚🌿 ──────────────────────── 🔬 THE 8×8 ADVENTURE — TWELVE PLANTS, TWELVE STORIES For anyone joining us for the first time, the 8×8 Adventure follows twelve individual plants and phenotypes sharing the same general growing environment. The central idea is simple. We observe each plant individually. We document how she develops. And we compare the different expressions without assuming that every plant will behave identically. Throughout this project, we've seen differences in plant height, overall structure, flowering development, and the way individual plants present their flowers. Amnesia Haze Auto Pheno A has been one of the girls who really made herself noticed. Her substantial structure. Her beautiful, dense flowers. Her distinctive flower shapes. And the sheer amount of photography she inspired! 😂📸👑 Now we've reached harvest, and we're continuing that individual documentation into the post-harvest stages. The growing room is no longer the setting for this chapter, but the story continues. Because a proper diary doesn't have to stop the moment the plant is harvested. There's still plenty to document, compare, and appreciate. And we're going to keep doing exactly that. 💚🌱 ──────────────────────── 💡 A QUICK THANK YOU TO THE LIGHTING TEAM Throughout the growing journey, our shared 8×8 environment included the Future of Grow Black Series LEDs, with two additional Black Series 600W fixtures supplied for us to test. Our established room reference was approximately 59% power from the plug, with around 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. Those figures describe the previously documented setup, not a new measurement taken specifically for this harvest report. The Lumiflora lighting also contributed another layer to the wider lighting environment. These are part of the background to the project we've been documenting throughout the run. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional fixtures and giving us the opportunity to test the expanded setup. Thank you to Lumiflora for being part of the lighting ecosystem, and to TrolMaster for helping manage and monitor the room behind the scenes. The equipment is part of the adventure, but the plants remain the stars of these diaries. And this Queen has certainly earned her spotlight! 💡🌿👑 ──────────────────────── 💬 COME JOIN THE DOG DOCTOR COMMUNITY!

THE QUEEN'S TRIMMING REPORT! And now, my friends, it's time to prepare for the next chapter. ✂️👑🌿 This report has been about the harvest, the beautiful flowers, the macro photography, and the journey that brought Amnesia Haze Auto Pheno A to this point. We've looked at her dense flower structures, her distinctive foxtailing, and the studio photographs we took to give one of her branches its own spotlight. We've also included a glimpse of the whole-plant drying stage. But there is more to come. The trimming report will continue the post-harvest story, with more photographs and a closer look at that part of the process. And after that, we'll continue with the remaining post-harvest observations and the smoke review when we're ready. So stay tuned! The Queen has reached harvest, but we still have more of her story to share. 💚🌿✂️ ──────────────────────── ❤️ FINAL THOUGHTS — AN AMAZING GIRL AND A VERY BUSY CAMERA! Amnesia Haze Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno A. Our Queen of the Yo-Yo World. 👑🌸💎 What a journey! From her development in the 8×8 room to the substantial flowers she carried throughout her structure, this girl has given us plenty to observe and appreciate. The flowers developed into beautiful, dense structures, with some foxtailing adding another distinctive detail to their appearance. And when we brought out the macro photography setup? Well... We may have gone slightly overboard. 😂😂😂📸 Nine hundred and ninety-seven stack photographs later, I think we can safely say that this girl kept the photography department busy! But that's part of the fun. We document what catches our attention. We explore the details. We take the time to photograph the plant from different perspectives. And we build a visual record that lets us look back at her journey. Now we've reached harvest, and we're moving into the next chapter of the diary. The trimming report is coming soon, followed by the rest of the post-harvest story. So thank you for joining me for this part of the adventure. Thank you for following the Queen. And thank you for being patient while we work our way through all these photographs! 😂💚📸 Keep shining, beautiful girl. Your growing chapter is complete, but we still have more of your story to tell. ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU A huge thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries! 💚🌱 Thank you to Zamnesia for the Amnesia Haze Auto genetics and for giving us the opportunity to follow this beautiful individual phenotype from seed to harvest. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden throughout the journey with the growing media and nutrition.

The end is in sight, likely in 2 weeks, they are producing compact and sticky buds, looks like it is going to be easy to trim, so little leaves in those buds! They smell fruity, earthy, fuel and a very strong kush base with lemon on one of my pheno, the second one is a little smaller and she smells more like carame&peaches in a kush sauce lol absolute beauties!

Good week goign from strength to strength. Introduced pk 13-14 at half dosage to start.

6 October 1 nice 1 ok

Things are good on the home front 😌 xl girl is flowering in full.. she also seems to be enjoying the lst. Hope everyone had a great Christmas 🎄 😊. This Red Strawberry banana looks like she is ripening.

8/11 -As the trends been this grow--both plants have responded very well to waterings. Im watering every other day allowing the substrate to dry out a little bit which encourages really good root growth. -I looked back to my previous grow diary to compare this grow to last at week 6 and oh boy am I blowing my old grow out of the water. Learning is a wonderful thing. -Stilts I put Cheese on seem to be working very well. Im starting to see a stretch on Cheese! Going to do some more LST to further even out the canopy. -Cream Cookies is really filling out and its undergrowth is really growing well. It's also starting to develop a strong odor! Awesome! A little bit about the nutrients: I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THESE NUTRIENTS! Not for the pH perfect technology but for how easy it is to feed my babies with these nutrients. I used to use General Hydroponics flour duo (micro and bloom) and that was such a huge pain in the ass to mix solutions. Every week would be a different ratio of both Micro and Bloom. Super confusing and really easy to screw up. This Sensi line from advanced nutrients is insanely easy. You just add an equal amount of both Grow/Bloom A+B in a specific concentration and that's it. All the necessary nutrients that the plant needs will be available for it if it needs it. It also doesn't burn my plants at all. At the beginning of my grow I was thinking of buying an TDS meter to tune the concentration of my nutrient solution. As a chemist, I felt I didn't need this as I can do the math and calculate TDS based on the species present in the concentrated nutrient solution--I never had to do this. Ive found that the best concentration to feed is around 13 mL/gal. Anything more is just too concentrated and my plants did not like it. SUPER HAPPY WITH THIS NUTRIENT LINE. LIFETIME CUSTOMER NOW. 8/14 -Both plants doing extremely well still with no issues. No Ca/Mg deficiency spots observed on any more leaves. -Canopy is getting quite thick once again-going to do defoliation this week. -Both plants are stretching like crazy--probably going to lower Cheese to encourage more of a stretch. -LST worked wonders evening out the canopy. -Cream Cookies is starting to really smell! -Going to sprout 2 more cream cookies plants this week with the hope to keep plants in a flowering rotation. The hope is to always have flowering plants under the lamp! 8/15 -Did some defoliation to create some breaks in both canopies to allow for some light to penetrate to the lower leaves -Original fan leaves started wilting and turning yellow so I trimmed them. -Trimmed lower fan leaves on Cheese: they were so big that they were blocking a huge amount of light to the newer growth. Id rather light hit the new growth than the old growth. -The differences in both plants are starting to show. There is a little satire (~30%) in Cream cookies and you can see it in the fan leaves. They just aren't as fat as cheese. Cheese fan leaves are so short and fat its really cool. Cheese is also growing a little bit shorter than cream cookies. -Makes sense since Cheese is a heavy indica auto flower while cream cookies is a indica dominant hybrid. 8/16 -Boy are both plants stretching. Lamp raised from 15 to 18 inches. -Flowering is in full swing for both plants. -Every other feeding cycle is going very well. Going to increase to 600mL next feeding. Curious to see how they'll respond. 8/17 -My last grow has all sorts of issues so I think its kind of comical that all of my entries this grow are about how nice the grow is going day by day. Really is awesome seeing the things you learn over time come to fruition. -Have three weeks of time lapse video, when you speed it up 8 times you can really see the explosive "stretching." it happens almost so quickly that it looks like the video skipped forward in time. Cant wait to post the final time lapse video at the end of the grow!

This week I didn’t make any structural changes to the plant. Unfortunately, I noticed the presence of some thrips. As soon as I detected them, I treated the plant with SPRUZIT to stop the infestation early. Now I need to stay very alert and act quickly to fully eliminate the pests before the flowers start developing. Early control is key at this stage 🌿⚠️
