Doing well with its 12-12 didnt really start the stretch yet still about the same size. My other 3 arent really my biggest concern I want this to do the best that's why I took them outside. Maybe next year If i time it right I'll start more in the ground at my cabin the few random clones i got out there in the ground are doing great but may not flower in time.

This was a fantastic plant to grow, and although it doesn't have the strongest resistance to mold, I think that if I were to grow it again I could avoid the issue. I am starting to figure out how to maximize my grow space! Come check out my next grow when you get a chance!

Resin is increasing and looks like bud sites are ready to start putting on some bulk. Issue with low ph drift reaching 5.2 so I decreased 50ppm with distilled water without calmag to soften the water and counter the drift. After decreasing ppm, ph drift continues, so I flushed for 2 days with distilled water and added back nutrients at half strength to increase to 800 ppm over time.

Week 5 for Amnesia Zkittlez by fastbuds, Has blasted straight into making pre flowers for the last week, shes gotten a little bit extra stretch. Because of her height i will be moving her outdoors with the rest of the flowering autos😎 Shes a little skinny for my liking but lets see how she starts to stack up.

What up y’all here we are at day 32 of flower here’s what went down. This was my first time defoliating and I defoliated a bit too much particularly on one of the forbidden Dream phenos. It started to hermie after I took off waaaay too many branches. A shame because this would have been one of the higher yielding ones. Forbidden Dream pheno #1 - wow just wow the smell insane I would say it smells like a grape sour patch kid with tangerine juice squeezed on top of it. The whole grow room smells like sweet candy. Pheno #1 didn’t stretch a lot so not sure how the yield will be. But will clone and re run. Forbidden soda: it’s a beauty of a plant, smells like sweet tangerine without the sour smell. Buds are less dense

Taking it slow with the veg state to develop larger, stronger plants and it seems to be paying off. I've trimmed the lower leaves at least 3 times this week. I think I'm going to extend it out at least one more week before switching to flower state. Early in the week I switched from blue to purple to allow the branches to push through the screen more. Then mid-week blue, to rebuild the fan leaves, then back to purple once I rearranged everyone into their optimal positions for capturing light. I see a lot of potential for multiple colas. Each time I switched to purple, I raised the light up a few inches to help them stretch. As noted last week, lamp distance is being measured from top of net (not top of plant). I continue to add compost tea every Tuesday, which they love :-)

🌿 Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B | Week 8 (Flower Week 5) 🌿 Small Plant. Big Personality. And Now… A Little Less Green. There are plants that follow the plan. And then there are plants that write their own story. Frosted Guava Pheno B has been doing the latter from the beginning. She has never been the biggest plant in the room. She hasn't chased height, hasn't tried to dominate the canopy, and hasn't demanded much intervention. Instead, she has quietly developed her own personality. Compact. Elegant. Beautifully structured. And increasingly covered in flowers. Now, entering her fifth week of flowering, she has reached another important moment in her journey. This week, she joined the group receiving a selective flowering defoliation. Not because she was struggling. Not because she was unhealthy. And certainly not because every plant needs to be defoliated. Quite the opposite. She was looking fantastic. But after looking carefully at her structure, her development, and the way light and airflow were moving through the plant, I felt that removing some unnecessary foliage was the right decision. So we went in. We cleaned her up. And now we're going to see what she does with the extra space. 🌸 Week 5 Flower – Her Own Story Frosted Guava Pheno B is currently around 108 cm tall. That still makes her one of the more compact plants in the room. But honestly? I don't think she cares. 😂 She has found her own architecture and she's sticking with it. The flowers continue developing beautifully, with increasingly visible frost and those characteristic white pistils reaching outward from the developing buds. Her foliage has remained lush and healthy, with that beautiful deep green colour we've been following since the beginning. The plant looks comfortable. The flowers are developing. And now we're starting to see more definition between the different parts of the plant. This is exactly the kind of moment where stepping back and looking at the whole plant becomes important. Because sometimes the question isn't: "Can I remove this leaf?" The better question is: "Does this leaf still have a useful job to do here?" And that's where this week's defoliation came from. ✂️ Defoliation – What We Actually Did This wasn't a complete strip. It wasn't a race to make the plant look naked. And it wasn't about removing leaves simply because they were large. The approach was selective. I removed most of the fan leaves carrying their own petioles, particularly where they were contributing to unnecessary shading or creating congestion inside the plant. I also cleaned the lower and interior portions of the plant where some flowering sites were positioned so far below the productive canopy that I didn't expect them to develop into meaningful flowers. Those areas are what I would consider the true bottoms on a compact plant like Frosted Guava. And that's an important distinction. Because this plant is small. Her lower sites really are lower. Even with the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting helping bring additional photons into the lower canopy, the primary productive zone of the plant remains higher up. So rather than allowing the plant to spend resources maintaining foliage and very low sites that are unlikely to contribute much, I decided to clean those areas selectively. But I didn't remove everything. Some lower flowering sites remain. I want to see what they can actually do. That's part of the experiment. 🌿 What Is Defoliation? For anyone new to growing: Defoliation is the intentional removal of selected leaves from a plant to alter the structure of the canopy. The goal isn't simply to have fewer leaves. The goal is to create a better balance between: light penetration + airflow + canopy structure + productive flowering sites. Leaves are extremely valuable. They're the plant's solar panels. So removing them should never be treated as something automatically beneficial. Every leaf removed is a piece of photosynthetic machinery removed. That's why I don't approach defoliation as: "Flower started. Time to strip the plant." Instead, I look at the plant in front of me. Is the canopy becoming too dense? Are leaves heavily shading developing flowers? Are there congested areas where airflow is poor? Are there leaves that are doing very little because they're buried underneath several layers of foliage? Are there lower sites that realistically have very little opportunity to develop? If the answer is yes, then selective defoliation can make sense. If the answer is no... Leave the plant alone. 🚫 What Defoliation Is NOT This is probably even more important. Defoliation is not: ❌ Removing every fan leaf ❌ Trying to expose every single flower to direct light ❌ A substitute for good plant structure ❌ A guaranteed way to increase yield ❌ Something every plant needs at the same time ❌ An excuse to strip a healthy plant simply because you can The objective isn't to make the plant look clean for the sake of appearance. The objective is to improve the functional canopy. And there's a big difference. A beautiful green leaf isn't a problem simply because it's a beautiful green leaf. If it's healthy, receiving light, contributing to photosynthesis and helping the plant, I have no reason to remove it. But when the canopy becomes crowded and certain leaves are contributing more obstruction than productivity, that's when selective removal becomes interesting. ✂️ How I Approach It My approach is simple: I observe first. I don't start with a predetermined number of leaves that must disappear. I start by looking at the structure. Then I work from the outside toward the interior and from the top toward the lower portions, looking for unnecessary congestion. Leaves that are heavily shading productive flowering sites can be candidates. Leaves buried underneath several other leaves can be candidates. Leaves occupying congested interior areas can be candidates. And lower growth that is so far beneath the productive canopy that it has little realistic opportunity to develop can also be considered. But I always keep the plant's overall health in mind. The goal is balance, not maximum removal. That's why Pheno B still has plenty of green. She's not naked. She's simply better organized. 💡 The Under-Canopy Question This is particularly interesting with Frosted Guava Pheno B because we're running Lumiflora under-canopy lighting. Someone might reasonably ask: "If you have light underneath, why remove the lower growth?" That's a very fair question. And the answer is that under-canopy lighting doesn't magically make every lower flower equal to a top flower. On a compact plant like this, the very lowest parts are still extremely low relative to the main productive canopy. The under-canopy lighting is helping reinforce the lower and interior areas, but I still want to observe where the plant naturally allocates its energy. That's why I deliberately left some lower flowering sites behind. I don't want to assume. I want to watch. Will those remaining lower sites develop? Will the extra light make a noticeable difference? Will the upper flowers continue dominating? That's exactly the kind of question this project allows us to explore. And the harvest will eventually give us the answer. ☀️ More Light Where It Matters The Future of Grow Black Series LED continues providing the primary light from above, with approximately 1,000 PPFD across the upper canopy. Frosted Guava may be compact, but she certainly isn't short on photons. She's been sitting underneath that light throughout flowering, converting those photons into leaves, flowers, structure and now increasingly visible resin. And with the selective defoliation, we're changing how some of those photons move through her architecture. We're not creating more photons. We're simply trying to make better use of the ones already available. That's the idea. Don't waste energy chasing light. Build a canopy where the available light can actually do its job. ❄️ And The Frost Is Getting Serious The name Frosted Guava continues becoming more appropriate every week. The flowers are developing beautifully, and the resin production is becoming increasingly visible. Those white pistils are still everywhere, creating an incredible contrast against the deep green foliage. And underneath all those hairs, the flowers are beginning to gain more structure and density. This is the stage where I love looking at the same plant from week to week. Because the change isn't always dramatic overnight. But compare the plant to where she was a few weeks ago... And suddenly you realize: She's building. She's filling out. She's gaining flower volume. She's becoming increasingly defined. She's becoming Frosted Guava. 🌿 Small Plant. Big Character. I've said this about her before, but this week makes it even more obvious. Frosted Guava Pheno B doesn't need to be the tallest plant in the room. She's already found something more interesting. Character. Her sister Pheno A has followed a different path. And that's one of the beautiful things about running phenotypes together. Same genetics. Same room. Same light. Same nutrition. Same philosophy. Different personalities. Pheno B has chosen to remain compact and elegant. And now, as flowering progresses, she's showing us exactly what that compact structure can become. 💧 Nutrition & Hand Watering We're continuing with hand watering throughout the room. Current feeding remains centered around the Plagron flowering program: Terra Bloom — 2.2 ml/L Power Buds — 1 ml/L Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L Green Sensation — 1 ml/L Lemon Kick — 0.03 ml/L Current recorded parameters are around: pH: 6.0 EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm Solution temperature: 21°C Root-zone temperature: 21°C Watering: approximately 1.2 L per 24 hours Hand watering has also given me another opportunity to observe this plant closely. Every time I water her, I get another chance to look at the flowers, inspect the leaves, check the structure and notice those tiny changes that are easy to miss when everything is automated. It takes more work. But it also brings you closer to the plants. And sometimes that's where the best observations happen. 🌡️ Environment The room continues running under stable conditions: Day temperature: 29°C Night temperature: 25°C Relative humidity: approximately 72% Solution temperature: 21°C Root-zone temperature: 21°C CO₂: approximately 639 ppm With the canopy becoming increasingly dense, airflow and humidity management become even more important. That's another reason selective defoliation can be useful at this stage. Not because leaves are inherently bad. But because a dense flowering canopy can create small pockets where air movement becomes less effective. Opening selected areas gives the room a little more breathing space. And that's particularly valuable as the flowers continue developing. 🔭 Looking Ahead Now comes the interesting part. We've changed the architecture. We've removed some unnecessary foliage. We've cleaned the lower sections. We've opened some of the interior. And now... we wait and observe. I want to see how quickly she responds. I want to see how the flowers develop with the improved canopy structure. I want to see what happens to those lower sites we deliberately left behind. And most importantly, I want to see how Frosted Guava Pheno B continues writing her own story. Because she's already made one thing very clear: She doesn't need to follow anybody else's timetable. ❤️ Final Thoughts – Let Her Shine Frosted Guava Pheno B has been one of those plants that quietly earns your attention. She didn't arrive in the room demanding the spotlight. She didn't become the tallest. She didn't become the biggest. She simply kept growing. And week after week, she became more beautiful. Now she's entered another chapter. A little less foliage. A little more breathing room. A little more light moving through the canopy. And plenty of flowers left behind to show us what she's capable of. The important thing about this week's defoliation isn't how many leaves we removed. It's why we removed them. Because good cultivation isn't about following a recipe blindly. It's about looking at the plant in front of you and making decisions based on what she's actually telling you. And Frosted Guava Pheno B was telling me: "I'm ready." So we listened. Now let's see what she does. A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for these beautiful genetics, Plagron for the nutrition, Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting, Lumiflora for helping illuminate the lower canopy, TrolMaster for environmental control and of course to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure on GrowDiaries. Every week, every phenotype tells us something different. And that's exactly why I love this project. Until next week... Let her shine. She has earned her spotlight. ✨🌿❄️ Growers love and happy growing! 🌱💚

Well, this week has been eventful. What started with a fly deciding to lay eggs in my buckets with larvae swimming around and chilling on my roots turned into a bit of a disaster. I used very weak H2O2 (diluted 3% solution). To try and clean infestation, the roots didn’t like it, even though the actual concentration of H2O2 was probs less than 0.25%. Lesson learned 🙃 It has given some of them a touch of root rot (this is an assumption because I can’t figure out what else it could have been). So growth has stunted a lot. Just before the bug problem, I increased EC to 1.1, this was probably another mistake, the smaller girls at the back with a smaller root mass got massive lock out, potassium, mag and calcium by the looks of it, coupled with a few not so well timed PH swings out of the 5.5-6.5 range gave me a lot to combat this week. But, life goes on, they’re still alive (just about)... As this is probably the hardest curve ball I’ve had thrown at me since I started growing canna, I have cut back the EC to 0.56 to allow them to heal. Probably wrongly decided to top them all as they were growing past 7th node, either it’s gonna pay off, or I’ll be posting harvest details of 0g by this time next week 👽 I am on a stay at home holiday from work for the next 3 weeks, so looks like my babies are staying in the ICU and I’ll do my best to bring them back to life 😊
