The cultivation of Alien OG by Zamnesia Seeds ended with very satisfying results. The plant was grown using Plagron fertilizers in their 100% Organic range, resulting in healthy growth and a particularly beautiful final structure. For the training technique, main lining was used without applying LST. The goal was to make better use of the available vertical space while maintaining a clean and symmetrical structure, with the colas evenly aligned and distributed. The final result confirmed that this approach worked very well: the plant developed a balanced and harmonious structure, with the colas arranged in a very neat and uniform way. Alien OG proved to be a relatively easy strain to grow and responded very well to the training technique used. Throughout the cycle, it caused very few problems and showed excellent development, finishing with large, well-formed and compact flowers. The overall structure of the plant was probably one of the most successful aspects of this grow. The only point that requires a little more attention is the final stage of flowering. Compared to other strains, Alien OG seems to be slightly more susceptible to mold, especially when the flowers become very large and dense. During the final weeks, it is therefore important to pay particular attention to humidity and air circulation to prevent potential problems. Overall, the experience with Alien OG was definitely a very positive one. The combination of main lining without LST and Plagron 100% Organic nutrients produced a plant with a beautiful structure, well-aligned colas and large, well-developed flowers. It proved to be a relatively easy strain to manage and capable of delivering excellent results, with the only real precaution being the need to pay extra attention to the risk of mold during the final stage of flowering. Growth is clearly excellent thanks to a controlled PPFD. We're providing the right amount of light at every stage and are experiencing potency spikes thanks to Zamnesia. PPFD - We achieve a PPFD of 800 μmol/m²/s (shorter plants) up to approximately 1250 μmol/m²/s, using CO2 to reduce clade formation and high-intensity lighting. Measurements taken with Phantom Photobio https://photobio.com/ Lighting - The lamp used is the fantastic Zamnesia Phytonaut 480W LED, set at 85% to provide a good average PPFD for all plants, both those closer to 20 cm (1250 μmol/m²/s) and those around 40-50 cm (750-850 μmol/m²/s). The older plants were almost done, otherwise I would have double-potted them. Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/en/14526-led-cultivation-lamp-phytonaut-480.html The cultivation system is the Zamnesia Ecosystem, complete with a powerful and modern ventilation and extraction system, a very intuitive controller, the excellent lamp mentioned above, and a grow box made of elegant and fabric on the outside and the highest refined quality on the inside. The steel frame is unmatched on the market. Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/en/531-growshop/799-grow-box-complete Links may be local; Google the products if you have trouble using them. Nutrients - We are in the final stages of using only water at the right pH, but the plant was grown with Plagron soil and basic nutrients (strictly organic) and plenty of additives, but with proper flushing. All nutrients are available on the Zamnesia website. Also check out the living substrate and fantastic new product line from Zammi. You can find this classic strain at the following link: https://www.zamnesia.io/it/10902-zamnesia-seeds-alien-og.html (Google it if the link doesn't work; it's a national link) Zamnesia Description: Alien OG, also known as Alien OG Kush, is a delicious indica-dominant hybrid originally from San Francisco. For a long time, this exquisite indica was only available as a clone from Bay Area growers and collectives. But now you can grow and enjoy this high-potency strain at home. The result of crossing Tahoe OG and Alien Kush, Alien OG is 60% indica-dominant, contains approximately 23% THC, and produces a rich blend of lemon and pine terpenes. Its body stone and cerebral, almost psychedelic effects make it a great smoke, while its vigor and resilience make Alien OG an excellent addition to any indoor or outdoor grow.

Smells amazing

finishing of her 2nd bust be feeding plain water next week

We picked up the cuttings for the GanjOS Lab from High4Life on December 30th and put them in our propagator for around 3 days for acclimatization.

Nous sommes maintenant à la 4 ème semaine et pour nous proche du passage box de floraison 🌺 Arrosage TCO cette semaine Topping de la plupart des apex de chaque branche Soin des coupures avec la cannelle Installation du filet de LST Les orties les plus vigoureux ont été tordu pour ralentir leur croissance et faciliter l'installation u plant de canna

35/40/35/40 = 150g.

The screen is slowly filling up! I will admit the ScrOG method is a little more work than other LST/HST, but I love messing with my plants anyway. Its like solving a puzzle trying to find the next spot to pop up a cola. The Lucas method is going great. Still no water changes, and I haven't had issues with algae or root rot. Some people report their reservoir smelling bad without water changes, but all I smell is ganja 😀

Chopped the Blue Gelato 41 due to it going hermie, this plant seems to be fine at the moment but will be keeping a close eye on it! Buds getting so heavy it’s leaning to one side, starting to flush tomorrow🌱 Looking forward to finishing off this grow, so many mistakes have been made but still learning. Mistakes will be corrected for the next grow! Little seed on Runtz Muffin, going to chop, clean tent and start from scratch.

Baby bcn auto 1 week in soil.

8/2 some parts of the plant look like they have enough pistils to consider her to be flowering 8/5 gave her some open sesame, since she's shooting out so many pistils 8/7 shes 66 inches and id say shes officially flowering

💙 8×8 Adventure – Week 15 🌿 Blueberry Muffin – Pheno B 🌸 A More Colourful Goodbye — The Compact Girl Finishes Her Story in Her Own Style Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And before we get into this beautiful girl, I want to start with a little explanation. First of all, apologies for the slightly different format of these reports lately. There is quite a lot happening behind the scenes, and with so many individual plants, phenotypes, photographs, observations and different stages of development, I've decided to give every girl the space she deserves. So, for anyone joining us for the first time, let's take a moment to explain what we're doing here. ──────────────────────── 🌱 THE 8×8 ADVENTURE — A LITTLE RECAP FOR NEWCOMERS This project is a full 12/12-from-seed experiment. Yes, you read that correctly! We're exploring what happens when different genetics and individual phenotypes share the same general environment under a 12/12 light schedule from the beginning. No traditional extended vegetative period. No separate lighting schedules for different plants. Just one shared room, one general environmental approach, and a collection of different genetic expressions developing alongside one another. And that's precisely where things get interesting. Some plants stretch considerably. Some remain compact. Some develop quickly, while others take their time. Some finish earlier, some need longer, and even plants from the same cultivar can show noticeably different characteristics. That's why we're documenting each plant individually. Although several girls share the same genetics, each phenotype has her own diary, photographs, observations and development timeline. We want every report to tell a complete story on its own. Someone following Pheno A shouldn't need to search through Pheno B's diary to understand what's happening. And someone discovering Pheno B halfway through the project should be able to follow her journey from beginning to end. There will naturally be some overlap between reports, because these plants share the same room and many of the same conditions. But their individual stories are worth documenting separately. Same room. Same general conditions. Different genetics, different expressions, and sometimes very different personalities. That's the heart of the 8×8 Adventure. 💙🌱 ──────────────────────── 💙 BLUEBERRY MUFFIN PHENO B — HER OWN KIND OF FINALE And now... Let's talk about this beautiful little lady! Blueberry Muffin Pheno B. 😂💙 If you've been following her diary, you already know that she was never particularly interested in competing with the taller girls. She's been compact throughout the run, developing at her own pace and generally giving us the impression that she has absolutely no intention of rushing anything. And honestly, she stayed true to that personality right until the end. But there is something I particularly like about the way this girl finished. Compared with her sister, Pheno B developed a more colourful expression towards the end of her journey. The difference is especially interesting when we look at the flowers closely. Two Blueberry Muffins. Same general environment. Same overall treatment. Two individual phenotypes. And two slightly different final expressions. That's exactly the kind of detail I want to preserve in these diaries. Because if we simply photographed the two plants together and called them Blueberry Muffin, we'd miss part of the story. Pheno B deserves her own spotlight. And today, we're giving it to her. 💙🌸✨ ──────────────────────── 🌈 A LITTLE MORE COLOUR IN THE FINAL CHAPTER One of the things that immediately caught my attention was the colour development. Compared with Pheno A, this girl finished with a more colourful appearance. And I absolutely love seeing these differences between sisters. The final photographs give us a beautiful look at the flowers, their different shades, the pistils, and the individual structures that developed throughout the run. There is something particularly rewarding about looking back at the photographs from the early weeks and comparing them with what we have in front of us now. At the beginning, we were looking at a small plant under a 12/12 schedule. Then came the development of her structure. The first flowers. The stacking. The gradual changes in the flowers. And eventually, this. A compact Blueberry Muffin with her own personality and a more colourful finish than her sister. No need to make her story bigger than it is. She's beautiful exactly as she is. 💙🌈🌸 ──────────────────────── 📸 THE MACRO WORLD — THIS IS WHERE THINGS GET REALLY INTERESTING Now, my friends... Let's get closer. A lot closer. 😂🔬 This report includes quite a collection of photographs, and I wanted to give the flowers the attention they deserve. We've gone deep into the details with our macro photography and focus-stacking work. And when I say deep, I mean DEEP. We're not only looking at the overall flower structure. We're exploring individual details that are almost impossible to appreciate in a normal photograph. The trichomes. The resin-covered surfaces. The pistils. The different textures. The tiny structures surrounding the flowers. And some of the less conventional subjects that most people probably wouldn't think of photographing. We even included root photography and focus-stacking experiments. Because why stop at the flowers? 😂🌱🔬 The roots are part of the story too! For anyone unfamiliar with focus stacking, it's a photographic technique where multiple images are captured at different focus distances and combined to produce a photograph with a greater depth of field. At macro magnifications, the depth of field can become incredibly shallow. A tiny change in focus can make a huge difference. By combining multiple photographs, we can reveal much more detail across a small subject than a single image would normally show. And that's what makes this kind of photography so fascinating. We're not simply taking a close-up. We're exploring a miniature world that is already there, waiting to be discovered. 📸🔬💙 ──────────────────────── ❄️ TRICHOMES, RESIN AND THE LITTLE DETAILS If there is one thing this photo collection makes particularly clear, it's how much detail there is to appreciate in these flowers. The trichomes are everywhere in our close-up photographs. Different structures, different angles, different levels of focus, and a completely different perspective from what we see when looking at the whole plant. Some of these photographs are really something else. And I particularly enjoy the way the macro work reveals the relationship between the flower surface, the trichomes and the surrounding plant structures. You can spend quite some time looking at these images. And that's exactly the point. Sometimes we become so focused on the overall plant that we forget just how much is happening at a microscopic scale. There's an entire little world hiding in those flowers. And this girl gave us plenty of opportunities to explore it. ❄️🔬🌸 ──────────────────────── 🦋 COLOURFUL WINGS AND UNEXPECTED VISITORS And then we have some of my favourite little discoveries from this photo session. Those beautiful colourful wings! Some of the macro photographs capture tiny details that are easy to overlook when looking at the plant normally. The colours, reflections and delicate structures make for some fascinating images. And, of course, we also have our little visitors. Fungus gnats caught on the sticky traps. 😂? Not exactly the guests we invited to the photography session, but apparently they wanted to participate. Jokes aside, they're part of the real-world observations from the room, and I like documenting what we actually encounter rather than pretending everything is always perfectly staged. Not every photograph needs to be glamorous. Sometimes the little details tell us something about the environment around the plants too. And sometimes they simply make us laugh. 😂🌱 ──────────────────────── 🌿 ONE CULTIVAR, TWO SISTERS, TWO DIFFERENT EXPRESSIONS I want to make a point of highlighting the difference between Pheno A and Pheno B. Their diaries naturally share some similarities. They belong to the same cultivar. They shared the same general environment. They followed the same overall approach throughout the run. But their final appearances weren't identical. Pheno B developed a more colourful finish than her sister. And that's a lovely distinction to have documented. This is one of the reasons I enjoy keeping individual phenotype records. A cultivar name gives us a starting point, but it doesn't tell us everything about how an individual plant will express herself. Two plants can share a genetic background and still develop different structures, colours, flowering patterns and individual characteristics. We're not trying to decide which sister is better. We're simply documenting what each one gave us. Pheno A has her own story. Pheno B has hers. And both deserve to be remembered individually. 💙🌸 ──────────────────────── 💡 SAME ARTIFICIAL SUN — SAME LIGHTING ECOSYSTEM Throughout this journey, the lighting environment has remained part of the shared setup. Our Future of Grow Black Series LEDs provide the main lighting, supported by the additional Black Series 600W fixtures that expanded the lighting capability of the room. After introducing the extra fixtures, we adjusted their output to approximately 59% from the plug. Our upper-canopy reference was approximately 1,500 PPFD, with actual intensity varying according to plant height and position. The idea was never simply to throw more light into the room. It was to have additional lighting capability and flexibility without needing to operate every fixture at maximum output. And once again, it's interesting to remember that Pheno A and Pheno B shared this same general lighting environment. Same photons. Same artificial sun. Different plants. Different expressions. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series fixtures and allowing us to explore the expanded lighting setup. 💡🌱🙏 ──────────────────────── ❤️ A LITTLE RED LIGHT BEFORE THE NIGHT We're also documenting our additional 15-minute red-light period after the main lighting period. This has been part of the lighting routine we're exploring during this run. As discussed in previous reports, red and far-red wavelengths interact with plant photoreceptors, including the phytochrome system. It's important, however, not to confuse different lighting treatments or assume that one automatically produces the effects of another. The classic Emerson effect, for example, describes enhanced photosynthetic activity under particular combinations of red and far-red light. That is not the same thing as claiming that a short end-of-day red-light treatment automatically produces the Emerson effect. The spectrum, intensity, timing and conditions matter. And I prefer to keep the science honest. We're documenting what we're doing, exploring the subject and learning along the way. No magical promises. Just curiosity and observation. 🔬💡 ──────────────────────── 🌱 THE FINAL CHAPTER — KEEPING THE SAME GENERAL APPROACH As with the other plants in the room, Pheno B shared the same general environmental and nutritional approach throughout this stage. The room continued under the established 12/12 schedule, with the same lighting ecosystem and overall project conditions. There was no separate environmental strategy created specifically for this phenotype. That's important to remember when looking at the differences between the sisters. They weren't given two completely different environments to produce two different appearances. They shared the same general conditions, and we're documenting the individual expressions that developed. For this final chapter, the focus is no longer on introducing new changes. It's on documenting what we have. The flowers. The colours. The structure. The macro details. And the complete journey from seed to finish. 💙🌿 ──────────────────────── 🎬 A LITTLE SNEAK PEEK — SOMETHING FOR THE NEXT REPORT! And now, a little teaser... Some of you might have noticed a few photographs that look a little different from the usual plant and macro photography. That's intentional. I've included a small behind-the-scenes preview of the dried flowers. Just enough to give everyone a glimpse of what is coming next. Because the next report will take us into another part of the journey. We'll be looking at the dried buds, giving them their own attention and documenting the next stage of this girl's story. I don't want to reveal everything just yet. 😂💙 Let's leave a little something for the next chapter! But I thought it would be nice to give everyone a small preview rather than keeping all those photographs hidden until the next update. So consider this a little appetizer. The main course is coming. 🌸📸✨ ──────────────────────── 🔬 WHY ALL THESE PHOTOGRAPHS MATTER One thing I really want to highlight is that this project isn't only about growing different plants. It's also about documenting them. And documentation doesn't have to stop at the usual full-plant photographs. We can explore different photographic techniques. We can experiment with macro photography. We can look at the roots. We can photograph the flowers at different stages. We can use focus stacking to reveal details that a normal photograph cannot capture clearly. And we can preserve those observations for later comparison. That's why I enjoy combining the grow diaries with the photography side of the project. The plants give us the subject. The camera gives us another way to explore it. And sometimes the results are absolutely fascinating. This Blueberry Muffin Pheno B has given us a lovely collection to look back on. 💙📸🔬 ──────────────────────── 💙 FINAL THOUGHTS — A COLOURFUL GOODBYE And here we are. Week 15. Blueberry Muffin – Pheno B. Our compact girl. The one who always seemed perfectly comfortable taking the scenic route. 😂💙 She finished a little more colourfully than her sister, giving us another beautiful example of how individual phenotypes can express themselves differently even when sharing the same general conditions. And this final collection of photographs gives us plenty to appreciate. Beautiful flowers. Colourful details. Trichomes. Resin-covered surfaces. Delicate structures. Unexpected little visitors. Root photography. And a whole lot of macro work that takes us into a world we normally wouldn't see. We also have a small preview of the dried flowers, because her journey isn't quite finished here. There's another chapter coming. And I want to give that chapter the same attention. For now, I simply want to appreciate what this girl has given us. From a small seed under a 12/12 schedule to this beautiful final expression. She didn't need to become the tallest plant in the room. She didn't need to be the fastest. She didn't need to look exactly like her sister. She simply needed to be herself. And she was. Same room. Same general conditions. Same cultivar. Two sisters. Two different stories. That's the 8×8 Adventure. 💙🌱🌸 Thank you, Blueberry Muffin Pheno B, for another beautiful chapter. You may have taken the scenic route, but you certainly made it worth the journey. And now... Let's get those dried-bud photographs ready. 😂💙 ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU — THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE ADVENTURE A huge thank you to Zamnesia for the Blueberry Muffin genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore and document these individual phenotypes. 💙🌸 Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of this adventure and being part of the journey. 🌱 A massive thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting and especially for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures that expanded our lighting ecosystem. 💡🙏 Thank you to LumiFlora for helping illuminate the deeper parts of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for the technology and environmental control supporting the room behind the scenes. And a big thank you to everyone following the project on GrowDiaries.

Blueberry Muffin Pheno B has finished her journey with her own character, her own colours and her own individual expression. Now we have the photographs, the observations and the memories to look back on. And the next chapter? The dried flowers are waiting. So stay tuned, because we're not finished exploring this little lady just yet. Until then, keep growing, keep observing, keep experimenting, and never forget to appreciate the little details. Sometimes the most interesting things are hiding right in front of our eyes. Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! 🌱💚💙 See you in the next chapter of the 8×8 jungle... where every phenotype has a story, every photograph reveals another detail, and there's always something new to discover. LET'S GROW! 💙🌸🔬

Hello there. week 7 from seed and it looks like sweet seeds knows what They are talking about. 8-8.5 weeks to harvest looks like we are on track. I added a little bloom booster 2 weeks ago back-to-back weeks, and I thought I fucked up the PH. Leaves turning yellow looked like a lock out. Come to find out these are super-fast flowering. so, it is at the end of its life cycle. It is my first time with these genetics, and I am very impressed. I made a pretty hot super soil from what I can deduce. From what I have seen in other recipes, and the wicking buckets were a new twist instead of fabric pots. and they took to it like fish to water. 3 of them the red poison did very well. the dark devil is not as tall but the color and smell or the stuff of legend. In My humble opinion. loos like the will come down next week no more water as the buckets are heavy. They should use up the water in the super soil and then 48hr of dark.💪 p.s. It is International Womens month. tell your favorite girl how awesome she is. and take a bong rip.

Second week of flowering in the bag, and they’re all looking really healthy, even healthier than when I first threw them in the flower steady as she goes

Was good

17/08 - I had a 5 days travel, which worried me a little, mainly because my irrigation system did not arrive in time. But when I came back the plant seemed very healthy. The medium was dehydrated but as you can see even after some defoliation the plant continues to be very bushy. 19/08 - Very wide canopy! I have a 60x60cm tent and half of it it's taken by the Gelat. Og. Had to rearrange the tent. The Gelat. OG is little bit ahead of the other plant. 21/08 - Did defoliation to open more the canopy.

6.4.25: I watered with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 with the following nutrients;- ♡ 4ml Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag amino acids ♡ .75g Ecothrive Biosys Total PPM 880. 6.4.25: FastBuds Mystery Seed #1: She has been topped twice and is looking pretty strong 💪 She has grown vertically, and leaves are always praying. Possibly too much light, so I have turned the dimmer down to about 90%. There are slight bleached tips on a couple of top leaves. I'm hoping to do the same LST with garden wire here very soon. Overall, the plant has nice big, fat leaves. Seemingly lush colour and vigorously growing since the double toppings. Very nice plant so far. 👌 I have made the fleece tabs, and attached them as on my Northern Lights plant. I have started LST using the wire shown in photos. As well as two of the LST clips. I watered beforehand with 2 litres PH'd to 6.5 with 1g Ecothrive Biosys. The plant is looking great. Nicely structured. I'm going to do my very best not to mess this up!! 🤞 Thanks for hanging out 🍃 ✌️ 💚 🙂

So this girl ripened super fast and was harvested on week 8 and that for me is in heard of , I will update more once dried Update well this girl cured amazing and is by far the strongest fast buds to date by far
