**Semaine 7 : Septième Semaine de Floraison – Phase Bulking Avancé (1-7 avril 2026)** **Note :** Mise à jour hebdomadaire. Tout reste RAS, les plantes continuent leur bulking de manière très propre et homogène. Données consolidées TrolMaster + GrowOps (semaine 7 / semaine 11 globale). ### Contexte et Objectifs de la Semaine On est maintenant en **bulking avancé**. Les buds ont pris beaucoup de volume, les calices sont bien gonflés et la production de trichomes s’intensifie. Le stretch est terminé depuis longtemps, toute l’énergie est concentrée sur le remplissage floral, la densité et la résine. Steering : **végétatif maintenu** (irrigations fréquentes, runoff 20-30 %, dryback nuit 8-12 %, VWC stable). Objectifs : continuer le gonflement maximal des buds, booster la résine et les terpènes avec UV 90 min/jour, garder une stabilité parfaite des paramètres et éviter tout stress qui pourrait freiner la prise de poids finale. **Petit point éducatif : Bulking avancé et rôle des boosters** En semaine 7, la plante entre dans la phase où les buds « prennent du poids » rapidement. Le steering végétatif reste essentiel car il permet une absorption continue et élevée des nutriments sans stress hydrique excessif. La combinaison actuelle (Cocos A+B + PK 13/14 + Sugar Royal + Green Sensation + Pure Zym + Silica Force + Cal-Mag Amino) est particulièrement adaptée : - PK 13/14 et Sugar Royal alimentent directement la formation des fleurs et augmentent le poids sec. - Green Sensation + Pure Zym stimulent le métabolisme et la santé racinaire en coco. - Silica Force renforce les parois cellulaires (meilleure résistance et densité). - Cal-Mag Amino prévient les carences classiques en flo (jaunissement bas ou pointe brûlée). Maintenir EC autour de 2.6 et pH 5.8-6.0 évite les lockouts tout en permettant un uptake optimal. C’est le moment où on voit vraiment le retour sur investissement des boosters. ### Observations des Plantes La plante dominante mesure toujours **150 cm** et domine clairement avec une structure massive, une canopée dense et une vigueur impressionnante. Le stretch est complètement stabilisé. Les buds continuent de grossir de manière visible, les calices sont bien remplis et les trichomes se multiplient (brillance sucrée de plus en plus prononcée sur les sites supérieurs et moyens). Pistils commencent à changer de couleur et à s’enrouler. Santé générale : excellente, feuillage vert profond, aucune feuille jaune ou nécrosée, zéro pest, zéro signe de stress ou carence. La plante secondaire suit correctement. Clones restent vigoureux. Les plantes sont pleinement concentrées sur le gonflement et la résine. ### Paramètres Environnementaux (TrolMaster + GrowOps – synthèse semaine 7) - **Température jour** : 23-25 °C (moyenne live ~23.3 °C, cible 24 °C) - **Température nuit** : 18-20 °C - **Humidité jour** : 64-74 % (live ~58.9 %, cible 62 %) - **Humidité nuit** : 49-59 % - **VPD** : 0.8-1.2 kPa (live 0.94 kPa → idéal pour bulking) - **PPFD moyen** : 750-777 (max ~814) → DLI 32 mol/m²/jour (optimal) - **UV Light** : 90 min/jour (maintenu) - **Far Red Light** : 30 min en fin de cycle - **CO₂** : setpoint 900 ppm jour (enrichment actif) - **EC solution** : 2.6 mS/cm (live 1.85-2.95 selon moments) - **pH solution** : 5.8-6.0 (live 6.43, runoff 5.8-6.2) - **Runoff EC** : 4-5 mS/cm - **Irrigation** : Fréquente (4-5 cycles/jour) - **Runoff % daily** : 20-30 % - **Night dryback** : 8-12 % - **Steering** : Végétatif confirmé ### Nutrition et Irrigation (Soupe actuelle) **Nutriments utilisés cette semaine (doses par litre) :** - Cocos A → 1 ml - Cocos B → 1 ml - CANNA PK 13/14 → 1 ml - Green Sensation → 0.1 ml - Pure Zym → 1 ml - Sugar Royal → 1 ml - Cal-Mag Amino → 1 ml - Silica Force → 1 ml - pH- → 0.5 ml (ajustement à 5.8-6.0) Eau à ~20 °C, temp solution ~15-18 °C. Irrigation fréquente avec dryback contrôlé → excellent équilibre pour maintenir le bulking sans excès ni carence. ### Problèmes et Ajustements **RAS total.** Aucune alerte GrowOps, aucune intervention nécessaire. Les paramètres restent très stables, le steering végétatif fonctionne à merveille et les plantes répondent parfaitement aux boosters. Aucun signe de fatigue ou de ralentissement. ### Plans pour la Semaine 8 - Maintenir steering végétatif + EC 2.6 (possible léger ajustement PK selon gonflement) - UV rester à 90 min/jour - Défoliation légère et ciblée (seulement les fan leaves qui bloquent vraiment la lumière sur les buds inférieurs) - Photos rapprochées pour suivre l’évolution des trichomes et de la densité - Commencer à réfléchir à la date de flush (généralement semaines 8-9 selon maturité des trichomes) Ce journal sera mis à jour hebdomadairement. #GrowLegendary #Zamnesia #Plagron #EternityGrowCup2 Les buds gonflent bien, les trichomes se développent et la plante dominante à 150 cm reste superbe. On approche du pic de résine, tout se passe idéalement ! 🌱✨

16 days from birth the temperatures unfortunately with the lights on are still high but I don't think the girls are suffering very well despite a sudden irrigation that almost broke them

Love everything about this plant will be training better on the next run see if can improve the yield overall easy enough to grow would recommend this is a different strain than what im use to got a nice taste of its own lovinf the rqs strains at the minute .made some bubble hash from the trim and popcorn buds got 25.6 gram of it from ,3 plants and put a vid n few pics of the process on thanks fot following thid journey with me thanks for reading happy growing guys0

PAR- 472.0 R-211.9 G-170.4 B-89.7 DLI - 30.59 Week 4. These weeks are flying by, I just got back from a family vacation and they're are looking wonderful. excited for these autos!

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno A Week 5 | Full Steam Ahead One of the most rewarding parts of documenting an entire phenotype hunt is watching every individual plant write its own story. Even though this lady shares the same room as several of her sisters, she’s following her own timeline with complete confidence. Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, this project follows multiple phenotypes under identical environmental conditions using the 12/12 From Seed method. Instead of forcing flowering by changing the light schedule, every plant receives 12 hours of light from the day she germinates, allowing each phenotype to decide for itself when it’s ready to reproduce. Cash Express Pheno A has made her decision. There are no doubts anymore… Flowering has officially begun. ⸻ 🌼 The First Flowers This week the plant truly announced the beginning of her reproductive stage. Fresh white pistils are now appearing across every growing tip, marking the first real flower sites. Those tiny white hairs are far more than just pretty decorations. Each pistil is part of the female flower and serves as the structure that would naturally receive pollen in nature. In an indoor sinsemilla grow, however, they become the foundation for the beautiful resin-covered buds we’re all hoping to harvest later. It’s always one of my favourite moments in a grow. The transition from “plant” to “flowering plant” has officially started. Although she’s still compact, every day now brings noticeable changes as the flowering sites become more defined. ⸻ 💧 AutoPot Life Like her Blueberry Muffin sister growing beside her, this phenotype has now fully transitioned onto the AutoPot irrigation system. Instead of watering from the top every day, the plants now feed themselves whenever they need moisture. At the heart of the system is the AquaValve. This clever little mechanical valve keeps a shallow reservoir inside each tray, automatically opening and closing as the plant drinks. Once the tray is empty, fresh nutrient solution flows in again, creating a continuous wet-and-dry cycle without electricity or timers at each pot. It allows the roots to decide when to feed rather than relying on my watering schedule. So far… She’s absolutely loving it. ⸻ 🍽️ Feeding & A Small Observation This week’s reservoir was prepared using: • Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L The reservoir remains intentionally simple for AutoPot use, allowing the solution to stay stable while circulating continuously. During this week’s inspections I also noticed something worth documenting. Several older fan leaves are beginning to show a gentle loss of colour. Nothing dramatic. No burnt tips. No rapid deterioration. Just a subtle lightening that suggests she’s beginning to ask for slightly more nutrition as flowering accelerates. Rather than immediately assuming a deficiency, I prefer making small adjustments and watching how the plant responds. For that reason I increased the EC slightly this week. Now the plant gets the opportunity to tell me whether that adjustment is enough. Growing is often less about reacting quickly… …and more about listening carefully. ⸻ 🌿 Environment The flowering room continues operating under stable conditions. • Day temperature averaged 31.1°C • Night temperature remained around 25°C • Solution temperature stayed near 21.6°C • Root zone remained approximately 21°C • Relative humidity averaged 72% • Atmospheric CO₂ measured roughly 639 ppm The humidity may appear a little high, but at this early flowering stage I’m still comfortable maintaining these levels while the plants continue stretching and building new flower sites. As flowering progresses and the buds begin gaining density, humidity will gradually come down to create an even safer environment for resin production and flower development. Everything follows the plan. ⸻ 📸 Behind This Week’s Photos This week’s gallery tells a very exciting story. The close-up photographs capture the explosion of fresh white pistils appearing from nearly every node, confirming that flowering is now fully underway. The side profiles show a compact but extremely healthy structure, while the overhead shots reveal an even canopy that should make excellent use of the flowering light over the coming weeks. Some of the photographs also document the slight paling of a few fan leaves. Rather than hiding these moments, I like including them because they remind us that plants constantly communicate. Sometimes they’re simply asking for a little more. Learning to recognise those conversations is part of becoming a better grower. (And yes… eagle-eyed viewers may notice the photo label accidentally says crash instead of cash. That’s entirely my mistake and will be corrected in the next update. Even diaries have typos sometimes! 😄) ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should be one of the most exciting stages yet. I expect the flowering sites to begin stacking more aggressively as the stretch continues. We’ll also be watching closely to see how the increased EC influences the slight leaf discoloration. If the colour stabilises, we’ll know the adjustment was enough. If not, the plant will simply tell us she needs a little more. Either way… She’ll write the next chapter, and I’ll keep listening. ⸻ 💚 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this journey. Whether you’ve been here since Germination Week or you’ve only just discovered this diary, your support, questions, discussions and shared experiences are what make documenting these grows so rewarding. Special thanks to: 💚 GrowDiaries for giving growers around the world a place to learn from one another. Zamnesia for providing the Cash Express genetics that continue to reveal their unique personality week after week. 🌱 Plagron for the nutrition program supporting every stage of this adventure. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering consistent lighting throughout the entire room. ? AutoPot for letting these plants feed themselves naturally through one of the simplest yet smartest irrigation systems I’ve ever used. And finally… Thank you to every grower, follower, supporter, critic, and curious visitor who stops by these diaries. Every interaction makes this journey richer, and I’m grateful to share it with all of you. Growers Love and see you next week, where we’ll find out if the extra nutrition satisfies her growing appetite—and watch those first flowers begin transforming into what we all know is coming. 🌱🚂💚

Their on point im feeding every 2 days now. Power pots are so awesome i recommended for sure.ill top a 3rd time here soon .hope i get a yield i want

It down half the closet sherbet autos half left got about 2-3 weeks on them. Any questions feel free to ask n comment 🤙

She is getting real frosty and has a real strong Blueberry smell now. The buds and sugar leafs are super sticky and starting to turn purple.

Easy trim✂️ Harvest in 2 times first the top buds then the lower! No popcorn 🍿 The smell is delicious cookie & lemon 🍋 🍪 The buds are extremely dense 🤩 See you in 2025 for the smoke report Take care 💜 Baxter loves you🕺🏽

Taking longer then I had planned but no rush she nearly done. Amber trichomes are visible so chances are this is last week next post should be harvest

Hello, now on week 6. Big upgrades. I changed the light from 65w coold (+6000k) to 105w warm(2700k) and i also close the distance to the bulb by adding another pot under. I bended 3 more side branches and another is going straght up catching up to the main cola height. I believe this is good news. A lot more of pre flowers are also showing up. As usual im open to suggestions and help. Thanks again 27/3 - Updated Top Crop Nutrients. And a couple of new pictures

Diese Woche musste ich am Ball bleiben, ein krasser Stretch machte ein fast tägliches LST und eine dezente Entlaubung notwendig. Um einen schönen Ertag für zwei zu generieren, habe ich mich aufgrund der Lage unseres Balkons entschieden, alle Pflanzen kräftig runterzubinden. Zwei Ziele habe ich dabei verfolgt. Zum Einen haben wir hier maximal sieben Stunden mit direkter Sonneneinstrahlung. Durch LST erhoffe ich mir eine gleichmäßige Blütenbildung und Konzentration von Terpenen. Zum Anderen liegen wir mit unserem Balkon mitten im Dorfzentrum mit regem „Publikumsverkehr“. Das deutsche Cannabis Gesetz sieht vor, dass der Anbau nicht öffentlich einsehbar sein darf. Ohne das herunter Binden könnte man die Damen allerdings sehen. Die Anordnung der Pflanzen ist auch so vorgenommen worden, das sich eine Art Sonnenfalle bildet. Jede Pflanze und insbesondere die Blüten bekommen das maximal Mögliche an Sonneneinstrahlung. 🌞 Gegossen wird nun morgens und abends nach Gefühl. Purple Punch Auto fühlt sich ganz wohl hier. Die Vorblüte sieht vielversprechend aus.

I tried wettrim and drytrim to understand what i prefer. The wettrim dried inside dryferm bags inside a drybox with ventilation that i build myself. The drytrim dried inside the tent and got a trim after 9 days. Havent tried the buds yet since they have to cure first but they smell very lemony so far. Curing happens in grovebags. Half of the bags also got a boveda to see the difference if its worth it for the future or not.

All the plants have started their flowering. The Gorilla Punch and the Pound Cake are ok but the Apricot and the Orange Sherbet are under-developped. I have two purple phenotypes, nice 😎 Parameters : ------------------------------------------- Humidity range : 30-70% depending on the sun Temperature range : 20-30°C depending on the sun SUN Average : sunny Plants heights at the end of the week : ------------------------------------------- Apricot : 20.5 cm Gorilla Punch : 24 cm Orange Sherbet : 22.5 cm Pound Cake : 31 cm

Super excited for these to finish. The gassyness is just unreal, in flush, next week should see a ton of colors coming out

Removed bloom from nutes. Last feed on 31st. Plain water twice spaced over 2 days Can't wait to harvest this baby. 1 month is worth the dry n cure!
