22.06.2026 Hi Growmies, welcome back to week 3 of my Fast Buds Auto Grow! Weather and Conditions The weather gods have gone completely insane. Here in good old Germany, it feels like everything is melting down — including me! 😅 We've been hitting around 36°C for the last few days, and even nighttime temperatures have stayed well above 25°C. Perfect conditions for a serious growth spurt. At this point, I already have to water the girls daily, which is quite unusual this early in the grow. Growth The ladies are absolutely thriving right now. Ever since I started the first round of LST, all shoots seem determined to race upwards. Of course, I'm not allowing that and keep bending them back down whenever necessary. Growth feels noticeably more explosive than in previous years. My guess is that the Plagron Bat Mix is playing a major role here. Combined with the weekly dose of Bokashi juice, the girls seem to be loving life. Pests Thanks to the hot weather, snails are no longer much of a concern. So far, I haven't spotted any unwanted visitors such as thrips or aphids either. Hopefully it stays that way, although all the ants and aphids in the neighborhood seem to be having one massive party on my two giant sunflowers. Looks like the distraction strategy is working pretty well. 😄 Continuing LST The girls have responded very well to the training and are already developing a nice structure. Unfortunately, I had a little accident while adjusting the LST on my Apricot girl. I managed to snap the main stem, which really pissed me off because she was growing exceptionally well. I patched her up with a bit of duct tape and now it's a waiting game. I'm curious to see if the top recovers and keeps growing. Cannabis can be surprisingly resilient, so fingers crossed. Let's see how well I can keep them under control if they continue growing at this pace. It's going to get interesting over the next couple of weeks. Final Thoughts That's it for this week. The girls are healthy, growing fast, and enjoying the summer weather. Apart from my little Apricot mishap, I couldn't ask for much more at this stage. Catch ya next week, guys! Smoking_Joe_Frazier

First of all the plant is so strong after I have LST her all the way and tops and main line like wtf 🤪🤪 My trim of the buds gose fan leafs in the side and sweet leafs in the side and cut a litel for secend trim ( took me some time around 3 - 4 hours . P So I had some issue in the beging becuse I try to grow it in 24 h cycle light in the start it have made the plant dense but it slow down the growing for 2 - 3 weeks . In the end the results are amazing with the flux method ( I hope I did it right ) . Grate seed bank ! That color in the end just wow and even the lower buds get a pink color . Wet wight around 1.2 - 1.5 ( Human scale Lol ..) will update soon with more pic's . Roots are full its amazing ! And I 0did a good job . After the dry out ill do so aging . So came out with 200 grams in the end I have learn that the size is dosent metter 🤣 Becuse of 3 liter pot I made 180 but still it weird becuse in 10 liter I came out 300 . So the flux project went intresting and my last time im doing this grow flux..

Week 3 of Flowering is here Very excited to start the next week And see the buds Sites expand 👀 Day 15 Critical For weeks I have bin watering when come home and turn lights on . But because I had issues with humidity . I started giving them water in morning when go to work and shut the light off. And i think that worked well . They are looking good and growing nice there some higher buds so it not a even feeld but this my first grow ever . So i am already happy how it is going 🤘🏻🤘🏻 Day 16 Critical FRUIT FLIES !!!! i saw that dam bastards last night so ordered me some fly repellent sticky what ever you call those from Amazon hope they catch them all . Plants are doing fine in my 👀 . I am not giving them water now but in the morning when the lights go out and i go to work . That's all folks Day 17 Critical Did nothing to them only gave them the required nutrients in the morning. Day 18 Cookies Gelato Left them alone today having some personal issues off my own . That makes difficult to work on the plants hopefully tomorrow will be better Day 19 Critical I measured plants today and there about 90 to 95 cm from soil to top. Slitlly getting worried again about hight they are. I hope the grow spurt is over and bud formation will be intensifying . I think if i didn't use any technieks that i would be sol right now . Hope for the best Day 20 Critical Did something stupid today i left the light on for 18 hours and was afraid i fryed them . But luckily nothing dramatic happened . Not hopefully i didn't do much stress on them . I gave all the plants 1L of water pH 6.5 . And start letting them dry out some . Day 21 Critical Last day of week 3 Flowering This week went fast had couple mistake of my own . But luckily my reliable @MarsHydro TS-1000 save me from a catastrophe . I absolutely love the quality that this lamp brings and i am Glad this model has a dimmer . With the baby's is going well nothing going on but goodness

Little video of how she's doing

Esta semana mostraron sus primeros pistilos. Aprovecho que subió la humedad en el exterior y que mostraron los pistilos para quitar el humidificador , ahora me molesta dentro del armario xd seguimos doblando alguna rama

Day 28/06/2024 I chopped the first one, day 08/07/2024 I chopped the second one and today day 09/07/2024 I'm going to chop the other two (bigger ones) Very satisfied with all this, just the beginning and you will also see more diaries around here! These plants were perfect for a newbie like me, but I also learned that I'm very good at this, all the knowledge were in my head. See yall! 😎👻👽😈 Edit: great smoking, relaxed but not much couch lock, good after a day of work, will try on days of to see, I’m fucking happy bros!!!!!

👑 Godfather OG – Pheno B Week 8 | Letting Her Shine Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! Sometimes a weekly update is full of changes. Sometimes there is a new technique, a new adjustment, a new feeding strategy, or something that needs correcting. And sometimes... you simply leave the plant alone. This week is one of those weeks. Godfather OG Pheno B doesn't need anything from me right now. She's healthy. She's lush. She's stretching beautifully. She's developing flowers everywhere. So this week, I'm doing something that can sometimes be surprisingly difficult for a grower: I'm letting her be. 🌱 And honestly... I love what I'm seeing. 🌱 Twelve Plants, Twelve Different Stories If this is your first visit to this diary, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure! This entire project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed technique. Every seed received twelve hours of light and twelve hours of darkness from the very beginning of its life. There was no long vegetative period. No attempt to force every phenotype into the same shape. Instead, each plant has been given the same environment and the freedom to reveal what is naturally inside its genetics. And that has created one of the most fascinating parts of this entire project. Twelve plants. Twelve personalities. Godfather OG Pheno B and her sister are a perfect example. They share the same genetic name. They are growing under the same environmental philosophy. They receive the same lighting and feeding strategy. Yet they are very different plants. Similar family traits. Very different personalities. And that's exactly what makes a phenotype hunt so exciting. 👑 She's Getting Tall Godfather OG Pheno B has now reached approximately 160 cm. She's continuing to stretch upward while maintaining that elegant, open structure that has defined her throughout the grow. Her branches remain nicely spaced. Her canopy is naturally open. And there is still plenty of light finding its way through the plant. She's not trying to become a giant bush. She's doing something much more graceful. She's building herself upward. And the further she goes, the more curious I become about where this structure will eventually take her. 🍃 That Beautiful Green One of the first things that catches my eye when I look at her is her colour. She's lush. That rich, healthy green is still present throughout the plant, and the foliage looks strong and well supported. The leaves are beautifully formed, the stems are holding themselves confidently, and the entire plant has that unmistakable look of a phenotype that is comfortable in her environment. There is no reason for me to interfere. No reason to force a shape. No reason to remove something simply because I can. She's telling me she's happy. So I'm listening. 🌸 Flowers Slowly Taking Their Place The flower development continues beautifully. Fresh white pistils are still dominating the flowers, while the individual flower sites are becoming increasingly obvious along the branches. We're past the stage where they're just tiny beginnings. Now you can really start to see the architecture of the future colas. They're still young. They're still building. But they're there. And that's what makes this stage so enjoyable to photograph. Every week reveals another layer. A little more structure. A little more resin. A little more flower. A little more personality. Nature doesn't rush. It just keeps building. 💧 No Changes — Just Consistency This week I made no major interventions with Godfather OG Pheno B. No training. No defoliation. No structural changes. No attempt to redirect her. She's adapting beautifully, growing naturally, and continuing to develop under the same conditions. Sometimes consistency is the technique. And at this point, I genuinely believe the best thing I can do is allow her to continue doing what she's already doing so well. 🍽️ Feeding This Week The feeding program this week consisted of: Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L Power Buds – 1 ml/L Green Sensation – 1 ml/L Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Lemon Kick – 0.03 ml/L, when required for pH adjustment pH Plus – 0.03 ml/L, when required for pH adjustment The solution was kept consistent with the overall flowering strategy of the room. No dramatic changes. No chasing numbers. Just giving her what she needs and allowing the plant to decide what to do with it. 💡 Light From Above & Below The Future of Grow LED Black Series 600W continues providing the primary light source for the project. And underneath the canopy, the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting continues helping illuminate those lower flowering sites. This is particularly interesting with a phenotype like Godfather OG Pheno B. She's tall. She's open. She's creating flower sites at different levels throughout the plant. So rather than expecting every photon to arrive from directly above, the under-canopy lighting gives those lower areas some additional support. I'm especially curious to see how those lower flowers develop as we move deeper into flowering. 🌡️ Environmental Conditions The environment continues to remain stable this week. Current recorded conditions include: 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC/TDS reading: approximately 2.0 mS/cm 💦 Nutrient solution temperature: 24°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 21°C 🌬️ CO₂: 639 ppm 💧 Watering: approximately 1.3 L per plant / 24h ? Pot size: 15 L 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 The numbers remain steady, and more importantly, the plant looks like she agrees with them. 📸 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs are probably the best representation yet of what makes this phenotype special. The full-plant images show just how tall and elegant she has become. The close-ups reveal those beautiful early flowers covered in fresh white pistils. And then there are the leaves... Deep green, healthy, beautifully structured leaves that almost look too perfect to touch. This is one of those plants where photography makes me stop for a moment. You look at the whole plant and see the structure. Then you get closer and suddenly there is an entirely different world happening inside it. Tiny flowers. Tiny trichomes. New pistils. Veins running through enormous fan leaves. It's all happening simultaneously. 🔮 Where Is She Going? This is the part I'm genuinely curious about. I don't know exactly where Godfather OG Pheno B is going to take us. And I don't want to predict too much. She's already shown me that she's different from her sister. She has her own architecture. Her own rhythm. Her own way of expressing the genetics. And now I'm simply interested in seeing what happens when we give her more time. The stretch will eventually slow. The flowers will continue building. Those young calyxes will begin stacking and swelling. And somewhere along that journey, this elegant green plant will start becoming something much heavier and more defined. For now... I'm happy to let her surprise me. 👑 Let Her Be There is something beautiful about reaching a point in a grow where you realize: You don't need to do anything. She's not asking for intervention. She's not asking to be reshaped. She's not asking to be corrected. She's simply growing. Tall. Green. Healthy. Beautiful. And completely herself. So this week, there is no big technique. No dramatic change. No grower's ego trying to improve what doesn't need improving. Just observation. Just consistency. And a little bit of admiration. Because sometimes the best way to grow a plant... is to let the plant grow. 💚 💚 Thank You Thank you once again for following another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure. This project continues teaching me something I already knew but appreciate more with every week: Genetics have personalities. Two plants can share the same name and still tell completely different stories. Godfather OG Pheno B is writing hers right now. And I can't wait to see how the next chapters unfold. A special thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can share, learn, and inspire one another. 👑 Zamnesia for the genetics making this phenotype journey possible. 🌱 Plagron for providing the nutrients supporting the plants throughout their development. 💡 Future of Grow LED for the powerful lighting driving this garden. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable and controlled environment. ✨ Lumiflora for the under-canopy lighting helping bring additional light to the lower flowering sites. And finally, thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, sharing knowledge, asking questions, and enjoying this journey with me. Every interaction makes documenting this project even more rewarding. I'll see you all next week to find out what this beautiful lady decides to become. Until then... Growers Love and happy growing, everyone! 🌱👑💚

This week I added a 4 inch duct on the lower left side right by the fan, so it pulls in fresh air from another room. Also, I made a bunch of 1 inch holes in my buckets, then lined them up with mold resisting drywall tape and finally I wrapped the buckets in shiny hvac tape, figured it would help with the light. I have 2 temperature and humidity probes, one by the canopy and the other one lower. I must say that I was pleased with the progress so far.

Day 35 Flowering: A great week for bud growth this week. Sadly only on the Amnesia Haze with the Red hot cookie and the Afghani Delicious ambling along beside her. They will be a smoke able end but not worthy of the strain due to their issues early on. The buds have been thickening out on the Amnesias stems perfectly , she has approx 20 good, lengthy mains that are producing new pistils daily in abundance. It is a pressure to watch her fattening out andnher smellnis so sweet now too. A definite fruit with a lemon twist to it. The l.o.s has struggled to keep up with her huge feed demands and I am now using megacrop to feed her. Her leaves are starting to show a darker green re appearing now so should keep her energy flowing until the finish. she is getting a lot of trichrome production going now and has a nice frosty appearance forming too. I love this strain so far and it has been a pleasure to grow. She is starting to really push the terpenes out too and smells so sweet with a lemon twist to her. A nice tacky feel when she is handled shows she is putting oils out too now. With approx 3 weeks to run , she should beba beauty at her finish. Be Safe amd well.

WEEK 6 DAY 41 PICS Start to drop your temps at night this week! ⭐️Nutrients used this week⭐️ Front Row AG Part A 2.8g per gallon Front Row AG Part B 1.9g per gallon Front Row AG Phoszyme.4ml per gallon Front Row AG Bloom 3.1g per gallon Front Row AG CleanUp .4g per gallon Do not touch the plants this week. For the next 2 weeks I will raise the bloom extra .4EC. PUSH PUSH PUSH!!! End of week 7, in two more weeks, I will defoliate as many big fan leaves as I can. DO NOT TOUCH THEM TIL THEN. Phenotypes are starting to show distinct qualities this week. All of them have enormous colas! I’m glad i found this website. I was just looking for a place online that I didn’t have to hand write notes and didn’t know there was a whole community here. Thanks for stopping by and I’ll see you next week.

Hallo zusammen 🤙. Habe sie heute geerntet. Wir sehen uns in 3 Wochen mit dem Erntebericht.

probably won’t work with these for a bit. BUT was fun to grow something out and soon i’ll be able to try it out.

In Woche 5 habe ich via LST probiert die Fläche etwas besser auszunutzen und habe dort, wo junge Triebe verdekt sind, einzelne Blätter entfernt. Mittlerweile zeigt sie auch ihr Geschlecht, so das ich diese Woche als 1. Blütewoche zähle.

Very happy this week as my friend gave me a female Mac x Purple Punch he was using as a mother plant. That is in an 18 litre soil pot. The 3 Rado Z are now in 15 l autopots fitted with airdomes. A soil mix was made with dutch vega bio soil , Bio grow and silicium flash. The MacPunch I have stripped the lowers and trained it using easy bend clips.

It's week five of flowering, and the buds are developing very well. I'm very happy with how this run has gone so far. Let's hope for buds as big a lemons 🍋🍋🍋

Flushed and chopped down!! Vert impressed with the Futur vert flora max series led’s killer quality killer yield

Week 8 and the plants are now starting to get flushed Nd also are giving of a brilliant fade , buds are very dense and purple and red colours are starting to come. Overall really pleased with how everything is going
