The girls smells amasing and are starting to fatten up. Some of the branches are starting to lean as the buds gets heavier and so i decided to start flushing at the very beginning of this week. I have planned a 10-14 days of flush but i might give #1 a few extra days or a week in flowering. I am flushing with PH'ed water (6) and i am adding 15 ml of Bud Candy for the first flush. I will add 7.5 ml next time and then flush straight PH'ed water for the rest of the flush. The buds on #2(back left) are stacked with frost and smells unbelievable. Like straight diesel from the gas station. And the auto flower Blueberry420 auto from AMS are just stacked with frost as well its not that visable on my camera but was under 12/12 from seed and will produce no more than 15 gr. in my estimation but for sure it will turn out some delicious smoke. The other 2 i dont want to talk about. Bad growing techniques from me and maybe one bad seed but super nice journey it have taken me on

Just checking the trichome heads daily to harvest them at the for me perfect moment.

🌱 Folder 09 | Candy Rain Auto Week 1 – Finding Her Rhythm Welcome to the first chapter of Candy Rain Auto in the 8×8 Adventure. Unlike many of her neighbors, Candy Rain didn’t have the easiest start. She entered the room a few days later than the rest of the project, immediately placing herself at a slight disadvantage on paper. But plants don’t read calendars, and every phenotype writes its own story. The purpose of the 8×8 Adventure has always been exactly this: documenting every individual plant honestly, allowing each genetic to express itself naturally under identical conditions. There are no races here. Every plant is given the same opportunity to demonstrate what it is capable of. Already during this first week, Candy Rain is proving that patience is often rewarded. While initially producing only simple juvenile leaves, she quickly transitioned into healthy three-finger leaves, with each new set arriving larger, wider and noticeably more vigorous than the last. The journey has only just begun. ⸻ 🌿 Grow Environment The entire room remains carefully controlled to provide every cultivar with the same stable environment. Environmental Conditions * 🌡️ Day Temperature: 27°C * 🌙 Night Temperature: 25°C * 💧 Relative Humidity: 55% * 🌱 Substrate Temperature: 21°C * 💦 Nutrient Solution Temperature: 20°C * ⚡ EC: 1.3 * pH: 6.0 * 💨 CO₂: 666 ppm * 💡 Light Cycle: 12 / 12 From Seed * ? Pot Size: 15 Litres Because Candy Rain emerged slightly later than the rest of the room, irrigation has been adjusted specifically to her needs. Rather than following the volume given to the larger plants, watering remains concentrated around the young root zone, encouraging the roots to actively search through the substrate while avoiding unnecessary saturation. ⸻ 🌿 Nutrition Candy Rain is receiving exactly the same Plagron Terra program as the rest of the garden, simply scaled appropriately for her stage of development. Feeding Schedule * Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L * Power Roots — 1 ml/L * Pure Zym — 1 ml/L * Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L * pH Plus — adjusted when necessary * Lemon Kick — adjusted when necessary The objective during these first weeks isn’t rapid top growth—it’s establishing a healthy root system capable of supporting explosive development once flowering begins. A strong foundation always pays dividends later. ⸻ 🌱 Plant Development Watching this week’s progression has been incredibly satisfying. The earliest photographs show a delicate young seedling still carrying its juvenile characteristics. By the end of the week, however, the transformation is obvious. The stem has thickened considerably. Leaf spacing has become more symmetrical. The newest growth appears increasingly vigorous. Most encouraging of all is the transition into beautifully formed three-finger leaves, signalling that the plant has fully entered active vegetative development. Each new node displays noticeably more energy than the previous one, suggesting that the initial establishment period is already behind her. Despite being the smallest plant in the room, she doesn’t appear weak. Quite the opposite—she appears determined. ⸻ 📸 Behind This Week’s Photos Sometimes the smallest plants create the most rewarding photographs. The early overhead images capture a tiny seedling standing almost alone within a large container, emphasizing just how much potential still lies beneath the surface. As the week progresses, every photograph tells a different story. The side profiles reveal a stem becoming stronger each day, while the overhead shots beautifully document the increasing symmetry of the canopy. One of my favorite moments is seeing those first fully developed three-finger leaves spreading confidently across the frame. They’re small, but perfectly formed, and they represent the moment where Candy Rain truly begins her journey. Macro photography reminds us that growth doesn’t always happen dramatically. Sometimes the biggest victories are measured in millimetres. ⸻ 🌿 Looking Forward Next week should be particularly exciting. With the root system now becoming established, I expect noticeably faster vertical growth, larger fan leaves and shorter intervals between new nodes. The gap separating Candy Rain from the rest of the room should gradually begin to shrink. Autos often surprise us with sudden bursts of development once they settle into their final containers, and there are already signs that she may be preparing for exactly that. Her story isn’t about catching up. It’s about revealing what she’s capable of. ⸻ 💚 Thank You As always, thank you to every single person following this adventure. Whether you’ve been here since day one or you’ve only just discovered this diary, your encouragement, feedback and conversations are what make documenting every week so rewarding. This project isn’t simply about growing plants—it’s about learning together, sharing experiences and celebrating every stage of the journey. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from all over the world can learn from one another and document their passion. My sincere thanks also go to Plagron for providing the Terra nutrient line that is powering this entire 8×8 Adventure. Their products continue to deliver consistency, simplicity and reliability throughout every stage of growth. Finally, thank you to the incredible breeders whose genetics make projects like this possible. Every seed carries its own personality, and watching those differences unfold under identical conditions is one of the most fascinating parts of this journey. And of course… Growers Love and, Thank you for taking the time to follow along. One week at a time. One photograph at a time. One plant at a time. The 8×8 Adventure is only just getting started. 🌱💚

As-alaam alaikum 🖖👽. Una nueva semana más. Puse a esta maravilla de criatura a régimen de 48 horas de completa oscuridad y miren como se transformó. Ahora comienza proceso de floración.

Week 4 Starting to flower Switching over to flower nutes Few yellow leaves at the bottoms of some plants

En 75 días estuvo lista para cortar A la hora de fumarla tiene unos toques brutales a naranja que te queda el regusto en el paladar durante un buen rato y entra muy suave y fresca

🌱 Blütetag 38 | Tag 98 gesamt Klima – VPD Achterbahn Wieder eine unruhige Woche draußen. Mildes Regenwetter mit hoher Luftfeuchte → dann wieder kalt → dann wieder milder. Typisches Hin und Her. Die Pflanzen müssen ständig Transpiration und Nährstofffluss nachjustieren. Konstantere Bedingungen würden es ihnen leichter machen – aber sie arbeiten sich so durch. 🌿 Pflanzenstatus White Gushers 33 Diese Woche zeigt sie etwas mehr Sensibilität. An exponierten Trieben sind Klimaspuren sichtbar – kleine Nekrosen und leichte Transportanzeichen. Nichts Kritisches, aber erkennbar, dass sie die Schwankungen spürt. Trotzdem baut sie weiter auf. Blüten stapeln sich, die Harzproduktion nimmt zu und das fruchtige Aroma wird von Tag zu Tag intensiver. Triangle Sherbet Kush Deutlich die ruhigere im Zelt. Sie geht gelassener mit den Schwankungen um und wirkt insgesamt stabiler. Auch hier kleine Spuren, aber weniger ausgeprägt. Die Blütenstruktur wird kompakter, das Stacking läuft sauber, und aromatisch wird sie zunehmend runder. 🌸 Blütenentwicklung & Aroma Beide Strains legen gut zu. Mehr Dichte. Mehr Harz. Mehr Charakter. Beim Öffnen des Zeltes kommt inzwischen direkt ein wahrnehmbarer, fruchtiger Duft entgegen. Wir sind klar in der Mitte der Blüte angekommen. 💧 Nährstoffe Konstant gehalten: CalMag: 1,5 ml/L Bloom: 1 ml/L Einfach, stabil, ohne größere Änderungen. 🐞 IPM / Biologischer Pflanzenschutz Das biologische Team arbeitet weiter: Florfliegenlarven Raubmilben Gelbtafeln zur Kontrolle Ein leichter Rückgang der Trips ist erkennbar, aber sie bleiben hartnäckig. Kein akuter Druck – eher ein laufender Prozess. 🔎 Ausblick Insgesamt bin ich zufrieden mit dem Stand. Das Klima dürfte ruhiger sein, aber Blütenentwicklung und Aroma gehen klar in die richtige Richtung. In der kommenden Woche plane ich eine leichte, gezielte Entlaubung (etwa 2-3 Wochen nach dem ersten Durchgang), um Licht und Luft für die letzten Wochen optimal zu führen. Ich rechne mit etwa vier weiteren Wochen bis zur sauberen Ausreifung. Toll, dass hier viele mitlesen, Input geben und Erfahrungen teilen – genau das macht so einen Run spannend. Achterbahn-Woche. Blüten bauen trotzdem. Danke fürs Mitfahren. — Rocko 🌿🔥💚 🌱 Flower Day 38 | Day 98 Overall Climate – VPD Rollercoaster Another unstable week outside. Mild rain with high humidity → then cold → then mild again. Classic back-and-forth weather. The plants constantly have to readjust transpiration and internal nutrient flow. More stable conditions would definitely make things easier for them — but they’re pushing through. 🌿 Plant Status White Gushers 33 She shows a bit more sensitivity this week. On exposed tops, climate marks are visible — small necrotic spots and light transport signs. Nothing critical, but clearly showing she feels the swings. Still, she keeps building. Bud stacking continues, resin production is increasing, and the fruity aroma grows stronger day by day. Triangle Sherbet Kush Clearly the calmer one in the tent. She handles the fluctuations more gracefully and appears more stable overall. Minor signs here as well, but less pronounced. Bud structure is tightening up nicely, stacking remains solid, and the aroma is becoming rounder and richer. 🌸 Bud Development & Aroma Both strains are progressing well. More density. More resin. More character. Opening the tent now immediately releases a noticeable fruity scent. We’re clearly in mid-flower mode. 💧 Feeding Kept consistent: CalMag: 1.5 ml/L Bloom: 1 ml/L Simple, stable, no major adjustments. 🐞 IPM / Biological Control The biological crew is still at work: Lacewing larvae Predatory mites Sticky traps for monitoring A slight reduction in thrips is noticeable, but they remain persistent. No major pressure — just an ongoing balancing process. 🔎 Outlook Overall, I’m happy with where we stand. The climate could be smoother, but bud development and aroma are clearly moving in the right direction. Next week I’m planning a light, selective defoliation (about 2-3 weeks after the first round) to optimize airflow and light penetration for the final weeks. I’m expecting around four more weeks until proper maturation. Great to see so many people following along, sharing input and experience — that’s what makes a run like this even better. Rollercoaster week. Buds keep building. Thanks for riding along. — Rocko 🌿🔥💚

Perpetual Home

It’s smelling so sweet it’s unreal

Dopo due settimane senza postare nulla siamo all’ultima settimana di prodotti prima del risciacquo. Tutte e 4 le piante sembrano avere un ottima struttura, una buona ramificazione degli apicali e teste compatte e profumate (a super incollose, senza guanti non si possono toccare. Partiremo a breve con il risciacquo con il ghiaccio per incentivare i pigmenti viola a formarsi ed espandersi su tutta la pianta. Ci aggiorniamo a inizio risciacquo!

A couple days before chopping. Spotted budrot at 2 spots in the New 2. So almost time to cut before it get worse. The rest is doing fine, New 1 and Strawberry are gonna be the first ones to get chopped together,branches are under load and some are bending down

Really happy with the growth this week, can see there starting to bust again plenty more white hairs showing. Gave them some bat boost start of week and can see massive difference in the growth also the co2 bag has made a big difference, can’t wait to see what they do in the coming week. Happy Growing🍁

GMO × Triangle Mints BX – Week 20 Veg | ScrOG Installed, Stripped and Ready Big week. The lower canopy got stripped right back — everything below the net level cleared out to focus all energy upward into the tops. Looking at the stems from underneath is genuinely impressive: thick, woody trunks with real bark texture and heavy branch junctions that show exactly how much biomass this plant has built over the past five months. She looks more like a small tree than a cannabis plant at this point. A ScrOG frame has been built around her and the tops are being worked through the net. At 165cm she's already pushing through it and there's still time left before transition to fill the frame evenly. Once she flips, every shoot sitting in that net is a potential main cola. Daylight has dropped to 16 hours — down from the solstice peak and slowly ticking in the right direction. Transition shouldn't be far off now. Nutrient schedule unchanged: CANNA Aqua Vega 3ml/l, CalMag Agent 1.1ml/l, Aptus Regulator 0.1ml/l, EC 1.2 mS/cm, pH 6.2. Watering holding at 25L per feed. Day temps 25°C, nights 18°C. The coming week looks mostly dry and warm — up to 29°C, nights around 15–16°C, winds light throughout. Good conditions for her to settle into the net after this week's work. Updates every Sunday. Stay tuned. 🌿

En esta actualización se incluyen 2 semanas ya que por trabajo me fue imposible añadir la semana anterior. El día 15 de Agosto recibió la segunda pulverización de Bacillus Thuringiensis para prevenir el ataque de las orugas. Sigo alternando riego de agua un día con riego de Ascophillum Nodosum al día siguiente. He dejado de regar con Cannazym.

Starting to see a lot of white hairs think they are getting ready for flower, extremely excited to see how these ladies do! Thanks for checking in & happy growing friends!✌️🏼🌱 Day 23 - Everything seems to be going ok can’t see any issues other than the one plant with spots on the leaves but that is from spilling nutrient water on them! Day 24 - started LST on 1 Orange Sherbet & 1 White Widow to compare the differences at harvest! Day 25 - they are looking great! Can’t wait to see how the buds look😍✌️🏼 Day 26 - stretching out a lot! Day 27 - Last day of week 4 everything is going great!✌️🏼🌱

All good;))))
