It's Day 54 Week 08 0f Flower For My 02 Kombucha Cream by atlasseed . And For My Snow White and SpliffStrawberry by Spliff Seeds Amsterdam . So Today I Started My Day By Checking My Tricomes On My 2 Kombucha Cream. The 02 Where Looking Fully Milky So My 02 Kombucha Cream Got Flushed TODAY with Some Flawless Finish by Advanced Nutrients . The 2 Received 80ml of Flawless Finish mix with 1OGallons Of Water Ph at 6.0. Tomorrow they will get Rinse off with ph balance water. Yesterday I watered my Snow White and SpliffStrawberry Ppm where down to 100ppm. All 4 Plants will get a nice ice bath in a few days. My plan is to check the Tricomes on the SpliffStrawberry In a few more days she was still Milky when I check her yesterday. I will chop her down next weekend. And the rest will get the chop at 30%Amber Tricomes. Happy Growing Growmies 🤘🏻

Pretty straightforward grow in all honesty 😸 This plant turned out great, the buds look phenomenal, I love when they break out and bulge in all directions. She has some serious weight in her branches and the trichome coverage is on point! This pheno doesn’t look or smell anything like the first pack of Jelly Breath S1 I ran all those years back. That aside, she has nice earthy, diesel terps and looks like a good yielder so 🤷‍♂️😸 I gave her a quick wet trim, before hanging her to dry. It’s been fun (long) run. I didn’t take any clones so this is just a ‘one and gone’. I’d like to thank everyone who liked or commented on this diary, I hope it’s been helpful in some way 😸 PersonalSmok3s🌱💚😸

? Blueberry Muffin – Pheno B Week 9 | Same Genetics. Completely Her Own Story. 🌿🔥 Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 If you've been following these individual phenotype diaries, you already know that I absolutely love this part of the project. Because sometimes you can take two plants from the same cultivar... Give them the same environment. The same light. The same irrigation. The same nutrition. The same room. And still end up with two plants that look like they were given completely different instructions. That's exactly what we're seeing with these two Blueberry Muffins. And this girl? She's writing her own story. She's compact. She's lush. She's beautifully structured. And she's becoming increasingly interesting as flowering progresses. This week was another step toward giving her the space she needs to turn all that beautiful structure into flowers. So let's have a look at what our little Blueberry Muffin Pheno B has been doing. ?🌸 🌱 Week 9 – The Compact Sister Blueberry Muffin Pheno B has never been interested in becoming the tallest girl in the room. And honestly? I don't think she cares. She's approximately 75 cm tall, but height doesn't really tell the story with this phenotype. Her personality is in her density. She's compact. She's leafy. She's got a strong central structure with flowering sites distributed throughout the plant. And as flowering has progressed, that compact architecture has become even more obvious. This is where growing multiple phenotypes becomes so much fun. Her sister has her own architecture. This girl has hers. Neither one is trying to imitate the other. They're simply expressing what they have genetically programmed inside them. And I absolutely love it. 🌸 Flowering Development – She's Filling the Space The flowers are now becoming much more established throughout the plant. The fresh white pistils are everywhere, and the individual flowering sites are becoming increasingly recognizable. What I particularly like about Pheno B is how much flower development she's carrying inside such a relatively compact structure. She's not using a huge amount of vertical space. She's using the space efficiently. Branches are filling in. Flowering sites are developing. The canopy is becoming increasingly dense. And this is where our job as growers changes slightly. Earlier in the grow, density was simply beautiful. Now that we're moving deeper into flower, we have to think about what that density means for: 💨 Air movement 💡 Light penetration 🌡️ Microclimate 💧 Humidity management 🌸 Flower development And that's exactly what we're doing this week. ✂️ Cleaning the Canopy – Making Room Like her sister, Pheno B also received some selective defoliation this week. But there's an important distinction. We're not cleaning her because she's doing something wrong. We're cleaning her because she's doing too much of a good thing. 😄 She's naturally compact and very leafy. And as the flowers develop, some areas can become quite crowded. So we're opening her up a little. Removing selected leaves that are overlapping. Removing foliage that isn't contributing much anymore. Creating some breathing room around developing flowers. And generally making the architecture easier to manage. This isn't about stripping the plant. Far from it. She's still beautifully green. She's still carrying plenty of healthy foliage. We're simply creating a little more space between everything. Sometimes the best canopy is not the one with the most leaves. It's the one where every remaining leaf has room to work. 💨 Airflow – Especially Important for This Girl This is probably even more relevant with Pheno B than it is with her sister. Because this girl is compact. And compact plants naturally create more areas where leaves and flowers can sit close together. That can be beautiful. But as flowers become denser, I don't want stagnant little pockets developing inside the canopy. Good airflow is one of those things you don't really notice when everything is working properly. And that's exactly how I like it. Air moving through the plant. Humidity being managed. No unnecessary congestion. No little hidden corners where moisture can sit. We're not trying to create a sterile plant. We're simply trying to make the environment less friendly to problems such as mildew or mould as flowering progresses. Prevention is always easier than dealing with a problem later. 💡 She's Compact – So Let's Use the Photons This is another reason I like opening her up a little. At around 75 cm, she's not particularly tall. And that's perfectly fine. But when you have a compact flowering plant, I want to make sure the available photons can actually reach the places where they're useful. She already benefits from the additional light strategy we're running in the room, including the inner and under-canopy lighting. That's a huge advantage. But even with additional lighting, there's no reason to let unnecessary layers of foliage block one another if we can naturally improve the canopy. We're not trying to expose every flower directly to the light. We're simply creating pathways. Light pathways. Air pathways. And observation pathways. That's what this little cleanup is about. 🌿 Still One of the Lushest Girls in the Room And after the cleanup... Look at her. She's still lush. She's still green. She's still compact. And she's still unmistakably Pheno B. This is something I really wanted to preserve. I don't want to turn her into a completely different plant just because we removed some leaves. The phenotype is the phenotype. Our job isn't to erase that. Our job is to help her express it as efficiently as possible. And I think we're getting a really nice balance now. Enough foliage to power the plant. Enough space to let the canopy breathe. Enough structure to support the developing flowers. And enough visibility for us to actually see what's happening. That's a pretty good combination. ? Two Sisters – Two Personalities This comparison is becoming one of my favourite parts of the entire 8×8 Adventure. Because if you put Pheno A and Pheno B side by side, you can immediately see that they're related... but they're not identical. Pheno A has developed her own open architecture. Pheno B is the compact, lush sister. Pheno A has been a little more demanding in some areas. Pheno B has generally looked extremely comfortable with the current environment. And yet both plants are producing their own beautiful version of Blueberry Muffin. This is exactly why I don't like forcing every plant into the same training schedule. If I had tried to make these two plants behave identically, I'd have removed some of the most interesting information this grow is giving us. Instead, we're allowing the differences to remain visible. Same genetics. Different phenotype. Different personality. Different expression. And that's the story. ⚗️ Nutrition – No Need to Fix What Isn't Broken The feeding programme remains unchanged this week. We're continuing with: Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L Pure Zym – 1 ml/L Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Power Buds – 1 ml/L pH adjustment as required Current solution is around: pH 6.0 EC ~2.0 mS/cm And Pheno B continues looking very comfortable with it. She's maintaining that beautiful green colour. She's developing flowers. She's growing normally. And there are no obvious reasons to start changing the recipe simply for the sake of changing it. That's one of the things I've learned during this project. When the plant is happy... sometimes the smartest thing you can do is leave it alone. 🌡️ The Room – Small Changes, Same Stability The environment has changed slightly compared with some of our earlier updates, but we're still maintaining a very stable room. Current conditions are approximately: 🌡️ Day temperature – 29°C 🌙 Night temperature – 25°C 💧 Relative humidity – 60% ⚗️ pH – 6.0 ⚡ EC – ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂ – ~693 ppm 💦 Watering – ~1.3 L/plant/24h 🌡️ Solution temperature – 25.2°C 🌡️ Substrate temperature – 25.6°C 💡 Light schedule – 12/12 ? Pot size – 15 L So we're sitting around a 4°C day/night temperature difference. And again, I don't look at any one number in isolation. Temperature interacts with humidity. Humidity interacts with transpiration. Light affects plant demand. Root-zone conditions affect water and nutrient uptake. Everything is connected. And at this point in flower, I'm particularly interested in keeping the relationship between those factors stable rather than chasing some theoretical perfect number. 💨 Opening the Canopy Helps the Whole Room There's another reason I'm happy we cleaned her up this week. It's not just about Pheno B. When you've got a room full of flowering plants, every canopy contributes to the overall environment. More open foliage means air can move through more easily. More airflow means fewer stagnant pockets. And better movement through the room helps the environmental system do its job. Again, defoliation isn't a replacement for proper ventilation or environmental control. But good canopy architecture and good environmental management work together. And that's exactly what we're trying to achieve. 🔬 A Plant That's Becoming Easier to Read One thing I really appreciate about Pheno B is that she's becoming easier and easier to understand. At the beginning, we didn't know what she was going to become. Now we do. She's telling us: "I'm compact." "I'm vigorous." "I'm leafy." "I'm going to build my flowers inside this structure." And our response is simply: "Okay. Let's work with that." That's what I mean when I say grow with the plant, not against it. We're not trying to make her taller. We're not trying to make her look like Pheno A. We're not trying to turn her into something she's not. We're simply giving this particular phenotype the conditions and space she needs to perform. 📸 The Camera Doesn't Lie The photographs this week really show how much she's changed. The close-ups reveal those developing flowers and their increasingly defined structure. The wider photographs show just how much vegetation she's carrying around those flowers. And then there are the little details. The colour. The leaf posture. The branching. The way the flowers are distributed. Those details are why I love documenting individual phenotypes. A single photograph can show what the plant looks like. But a series of photographs over several weeks shows who the plant is becoming. And Pheno B is becoming a very beautiful little flowering plant. 🔮 Looking Ahead From here, I'm not looking to make any dramatic changes. The major framework is already there. The selective cleaning has given her some additional breathing room. The environment is stable. The feeding is stable. The flowers are developing. Now comes the part where patience becomes increasingly important. Over the coming week, I'll be watching for: 🌸 Continued flower development 🌿 Increasing density around the flowering sites 💎 Early resin development 💨 Continued airflow through the canopy 💧 Stable water demand 🌡️ A stable flowering environment And most importantly... I'll be watching the plant. If she tells me she needs something, we'll respond. If she doesn't... we let her work. 💭 Final Thoughts – Her Own Little World There's something really satisfying about this plant. She isn't dramatic. She doesn't need to be. She's just beautiful. Compact. Lush. Healthy. And increasingly covered with developing flowers. And what's especially fascinating is that her sister is doing something completely different while receiving essentially the same treatment. That's the magic of phenotype hunting. You don't know exactly what you're going to get. You give the genetics the same opportunity. Then you watch. And eventually... they introduce themselves. Pheno B has introduced herself as the compact, lush, elegant sister. And I really like her. This week wasn't about changing her. It was about giving her a little more room to breathe. A little more room for photons to move through. A little more room for air. A little more room for those flowers to develop. And now... she's ready. The canopy is cleaner. The flowers are becoming more defined. The environment is stable. The nutrition is steady. And this beautiful little Blueberry Muffin is heading deeper into flower. Let's make her shine. Let's give her the spotlight she deserves. Because she may be the compact sister... but she's certainly not a small personality. ?🌸🔥 🙏 Thank You As always, a huge thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Thank you to Zamnesia for these beautiful Blueberry Muffin genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore just how differently two phenotypes from the same cultivar can express themselves. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the plants with the growing media and nutrition throughout the journey. Thank you to Future of Grow for providing the lighting that allows these twelve different genetics to perform under the same artificial sun. Thank you to Lumiflora for helping us bring additional light into the inner and lower parts of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable. And, of course, thank you to everyone in the GrowDiaries community. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person simply stopping by to see how the girls are doing. It all makes this adventure more enjoyable. Two Blueberry Muffins. Two phenotypes. Two personalities. And we're nowhere near finished discovering what they can do. Until next week... Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💚? See you next week with Blueberry Muffin Pheno B. 🌸🔥

IZI permanent bluez has gone hard into stretch. Really stacking on size and showing where all the colas are going to come from .She’s a beautiful specimen that hasn’t missed a beat since germination. I’m thinking another big week of flower is coming my way next week. I’ll keep spreading her out and getting the light in this week , keeping up with some defol around the bud sites and down low.

Not a whole lot going on this week. Did some light trimming and removed the wires. Main stem on all 4 are nice and flat, going to let the girls veg out for a few weeks and just grow up wards. Moved the lights up 16 inches to let them stretch out. I also switched light cycles.. read an article that mentioned a lot of benefits to having 8 hours on and 4 hours off. Specifically I've noticed a lot of benefits ik terms of cooling and environmental control. I havent had to push water bottles into my buckets ar all this week. And it seems to be growing at a normal rate.

Right now I am just playing the waiting game with White Widow and Industrial Plant. Both have shown signs of maturation with their trichomes but neither one has a majority of milky trichomes yet. In hindsight, I should have waited until Industrial Plant was more mature before I started flushing her -- I've lost a few weeks that I could have been continuing to fatten her up. I added more bamboo rods and tied branches to them with some plant tape on both plants. White Widow's buds are rock hard and keep bending its branches so hopefully the extra support will help. I cut off the main cola and a side cola of Industrial Plant CBD due to bud rot that I failed to notice for roughly a week. After cutting out all of the bud rot I could find on Industrial Plant I checked over her and White Widow meticulously to make sure everything was kosher. I added a spare oscillating fan in the tent to try and improve air circulation in the room. I have had trouble with humidity and temperature shifts throughout this grow -- something I'll have to dial in as I progress. I imagine the climate shifts combined with how thick the main cola was probably contributed to the bud rot. Seedsman White Widow Auto is ready to be harvested as of Day 100. Over 2 days her trichomes really started to turn amber. I have started flushing her as of today and plan to harvest a day or two into the start of Week 15. As for Dinafem Industrial Plant Autoflowering CBD? I am thinking of just cutting my losses if her trichomes haven't gotten to at least majority-milky by the time White Widow gets chopped. She just looks mostly-dead and only wants a drink once every 7-10 days now. That and I have some new gear I really want to test out, as well as some different ideas for my second run that I've been itching to get started on.

(11/25-12/01) Hope everyone enjoys the daily progressions of overhead and side profile (Organized Chaos) Unfortunately they have too much of a toll for me to keep up with with 3 sets of grows going now, so this was the last week I am doing them on this set. I will try to add a video and black back or cover pics by end of week every week. Week 3 Notes & Observations: As mentioned last week, Plant 1 remains the supreme plant now and is producing nice stretch in the node spacing but is still showing a different type of leaf shape than plant 2. No issues from the mainline topping and they seem to be going okay. I will be topping again this weekend for the second of 3 total topping sessions. This topping will be 2 tops off the ends of the last and will produce 4 main colas. **OOPS** was being a little too aggressive in my HST while trying to set the mainline on both plants today. P1 was just a little rip of the skin, I taped her up and suspect she will be fine. However, on P2, I nearly snapped the whole branch off. I taped it and crossed my fingers hoping it works out in a week or two, but have serious doubts it will be able to mend such a large break. We'll see because I am posting ALL of the grow, the good and the bad. VPD and PPFD: This week I will hold the humidity in the tent to about 70-75% and temps will be monitored for 70- 75F daytime and 66-71F overnight. Im not adjusting my lights and look to control them 350ppfd max. Meaning slight increase over last week but mostly just growth increase. Feed & Monitor: ***All feeds with nutes use either a whole ratio or combination of "Veg Mix" and "Bloom Mix"concentrates DILUTED in water until a total ppm of add-in is reached using a (Total Dissolved Solids) TDS Meter measured in PPM (parts per million). The "Veg Mix" concentrate will eventually be added in smaller ratios and "Bloom Mix" concentrate will eventually replace the "Veg Mix" concentrate entirely. The ppm and ratios of each feed will be listed when I feed. Veg mix recipe is on week 2. Bloom Mix recipe will be noted in this top message of the week that I make it.*** Day 28 (last feed was day 22) Tested and Calibrated my ph pens. Starting weight from each pot was 18 lbs and 8 oz, P1 weighed 15lbs 12oz and P2 was 15lbs 4oz before feed. Each plant got 1 gallon of de-chlorinated tap water with 300ppm Veg Mix concentrate added (recipe on week 2 and makes 1 gallon at about 3600 to 4000ppm concentrate to dilute each feed, i.e. I only fed 300ppm above the purified water ppm this feed) The ph on this feed was balanced to 6.0ph to combat the original higher runoff ph from the first runoff feed. After feed P1 weighed 22lbs 3oz (21lbs 2oz after last feed) and P2 weighed 21lbs 14oz (20lbs 14oz after last feed). I got about 5cups of runoff on P1 (9 cups last feed) and 5 cups on P2 (7 cups last feed) . Runoff for P1 ph was 6.45 with 1170ppm (6.45ph with 980ppm last feed) and P2 was 6.45 with 1230ppm (6.45 with 1130ppm last feed). Top soil tested at: P1 6.35,6.3,6.33,6.33 for an avg of 6.327 (6.497 avg after last feed) and P2 tested at 6.47,6.37,6.26,6.51 avg 6.402 (6.46avg after last feed) - next feed will be 6.3ph as Im liking where the ph is so I dont see any issues, but will continue to monitor this way. Day 34 (last feed was day 28) Tested and Calibrated my ph pens. 1st Starting weight from each pot was 18 lbs and 8 oz. Before feeding this time, P1 weighed 14lbs 14oz (15lbs 12oz before last feed) and P2 was 14lbs 7oz before feeding (15lbs 4oz before last feed). Each plant got 1.5 gallons of de-chlorinated tap water with 98ppm Veg Mix concentrate added to flush any salt builds in the soil (recipe on week 2 and makes 1 gallon at about 3600 to 4000ppm concentrate to dilute in each feed, i.e. I only fed 98ppm above the de-chlorinated tap water ppm this feed) Due to this soil showing a possible calcium deficit, I am starting a 1ml per gallon add-in to test on all plants using this soil, so I added 1.5ml of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) to each plant's feed then I ph balanced before feeding. The ph on this feed was balanced to 6.3ph. I used knitting needles to help both aerate the soil and create new water pathways for the roots. (a practice I may consider a new feeding standard) After feed, P1 weighed 21lbs 9oz (22lbs 3oz after last feed) and P2 weighed 21lbs 7oz (20lbs 14oz after last feed). I got about 11cups of runoff on P1 (5 cups last feed) and 11 cups on P2 (5 cups last feed). Higher runoff volume was expected with the feed volume increase for flush this round. Runoff for P1 ph was 6.65 with 838ppm (6.45 with 1170ppm last feed) and P2 was 6.60 with 879ppm (6.45 with 1230ppm last feed). Top soil tested at: P1 6.58,6.57,6.58,6.67 for an avg of 6.600 (6.327 avg after last feed) and P2 tested at 6.47,6.61,6.64,6.64 to avg 6.590 (6.402 avg after last feed) - next feed will be 6.0ph as I'm still liking where the ph is, but rather see it closer to 6.3 or 6.4 top and bottom. I dont see any issues with the feed's data other than the possible calcium deficit and I will continue to monitor runoff ppms as I expected this to be higher with more runoff. Hope everyone enjoys the daily progressions of overhead and side profile (Organized Chaos) Unfortunately they have too much of a toll for me to keep up with with 3 sets of grows going now, so this was the last week I am doing them on this set. I will try to add a video and black back or cover pics by end of week every week.

En esta semana se puede apreciar que ya se sale de la pre flora y entramos de lleno en semanas de engorde de cogollos, he aumentado un poco más los nutrientes y se ha notado el aumento de masa de las flores. Al abrir el armario ya se nota un poco más el golpe de olor, muchas ganas de probar estás Tropicana poison 😋
