Transplanted the girls into larger containers with fresh soil. The soil is a blend of Peat Moss one Perlite. I then mixed some older soil with the new Peat/Perlite blend. After the transplant I watered with Recharge to help get some healthy microbes starting to develop in the soil. The Baox clones did not make it, I threw them away and started some fresh seeds. The new seeds started are Blackberry, DinaMed and Cherry. It should be interesting to compare how these new seeds develop compared to the seeds that have struggled so far. I'm hoping to see some nice improvements over the next few weeks. Stay tuned...

Overall the plant yielded good dense nugs with strong smell, if your planning on running these seeds make sure you have a good germination rate so you can get at least 1 good pheno with good color on it. This strain was very resistant to deficiencies, large amount of root development and decent lateral growth. I will post nug shots after dry and trim

Week 16 Everybody is on Flower! End of August: daylight 13h20: 7h20/20h40. Day temperature max: 26°C - Night temperature : 17°C Sunny weather - 2/3 rainy days in 2 weeks Enriched the soil with seaweed powder and bat guano. Continue to add flowering nutrients: Grower Master I added some Calmag one time. Watering 2L/plant every 3 days (2 days would be better) With humidity growing and the relatives hot temperatures: the predators are attacking plants. Everything appears so fast: Aphids, caterpillars, leaf miner flies. Did a general defoliation before spray my mixture Garlic + laurel (12cl Garlic juice + 5cl laurel infusion + 1L distilled water: beware PH!!). I sprinkled diatomaceous earth on top of soil to protect and minimize the infestation. Brake Pad Breath: still deep green and bushy. Flowering since 4 weeks. The most advanced, pretty good flowers with long pistils are growing. Spared until now: the plant is victim of Aphids, miner leaf flies and caterpillars in a « reasonable way »….try to eradicate the problem without shocking the plant at this stage. Flash Back#2: around 2 weeks flowering, stretched a few centimeters more, well developed plants with lot of blooming sites. Relatively spared by pests, just some aphids. GMO X Zombie Kush: some difficulties to recover….just engaged the flowering process, not to bad if she resist to the second pest’s wave. Royal Moby: uncertain destiny….recovering good, sativa style: 155cm, just starting the flowering stage…super late! Harvested a pretty auto flower: White Russian by Serious Seeds. Well developed plant, a little bit long to be ready but resinous and meaty buds.

Elle a été très longue. Le goût était vraiment différent des autres variétés que j'ai fais pousser. Très puissant, persistant en bouche mais très agréable. Elle a poussé en extérieur et elle a fini en intérieur mais à la lumière naturelle et elle était pas aussi puissante que celle des coffee-shops. Elle était quand-même plaisante à cultiver et elle n'a demandé que très peu de soins.

Day 73....gave her a flush today with some ph6.0 water. I'm noticing some spots on some of her leaves(I'll share more pictures of them). There's white hairs everywhere. So that deficiency might be a low pH. I don't know why my medium is getting so acidic. Did a flush and added some lime, it helped the last time. Hopefully I see this plant through flowers. Day 76....this plant is just loving life right now. Bus sites are getting bigger day by day. There's at least 10 bud sites, hopefully they all turn out to be fat and sticky. Day 77... doing good, no complains. Had a low pH run off earlier this week but I fixed asap.

Ok so the taste test is : I like this over the girl scout cookies and the BlackBerry for daytime , It's a very nice euphoric head high that turns you into a creative genius , you feel like you could do anything you put your mind too, the buzz sticks around for a while too , It's really nice indeed , and a few months cure and she will smell fantastic ,

👑 Godfather OG – Pheno B Week 10 | She Knows What She Wants 👑🌿🔥 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And this girl... She just keeps shining. She keeps growing. She keeps asking for more. And somehow, while she's constantly telling me: "I want more!" she's showing me absolutely no signs that she's unhappy. No obvious deficits. No drama in the flowers. No collapse. No hesitation. Just growth. Beautiful growth. 😂👑 Godfather OG Pheno B has become one of those plants that I genuinely enjoy walking up to because every time I look at her, I see something I like. She's dense. She's compact for her structure. She's beautifully green. Her flowers are developing wonderfully. And she has this unmistakable personality that says: "Keep it coming. I'm not finished yet." 😂🌿👑 So this week, once again... the spotlight belongs to her. 🌱 Week 10 – Still On Her Way to Heaven I'm honestly not completely sure where this girl is going. 😂 But I like where she's going. Very much. Every week, she seems to become a little more impressive. The plant is continuing to develop those beautiful flowering structures, and there's a real sense now that she's settling into her own final form. She's not trying to become her sister. She's not trying to become another plant in the room. She's simply becoming Godfather OG Pheno B. And I really like what I'm seeing. There's something very satisfying about watching a phenotype gradually reveal itself. At the beginning, you have an idea. Then the plant grows. Then she branches. Then she flowers. And eventually you start thinking: "Okay... now I see who you are." And with this girl, I'm definitely starting to see it. 🍃 That Beautiful Green One of the things I really love about her right now is the colour. That beautiful, healthy green is still such a strong part of her identity. And what's particularly interesting is how similar the overall colour expression is becoming compared with her sister. They're different plants. Different structures. Different personalities. Different ways of approaching the same environment. But there is still that family resemblance. You can look at them and think: Yep. Those two belong together. And then you look closer... and realize how differently they've interpreted that same genetic potential. That's the magic of phenotypes. Same family. Different story. And Pheno B is writing a very beautiful one. 🌸 The Flowers Are Becoming Serious And now... the flowers. This is where things are getting really exciting. The bud formation is becoming increasingly defined, and there's a beautiful density developing throughout the plant. She's no longer just carrying flowering sites. She's building flowers. Real structure. Real volume. Real character. And the photographs make that particularly obvious. The individual flowers are becoming easier to distinguish, while the surrounding foliage is creating that beautiful contrast between green leaves and developing floral structures. She's got a lot happening. And I love it. There's something about a plant reaching this stage where you stop looking at individual branches and start seeing the whole thing as one coordinated flowering structure. That's where she is heading now. And honestly? She's looking fantastic. 👑 Demanding Doesn't Mean Unhappy Now let's talk about her appetite. Because this girl is still demanding. 😂🍽️ She continues asking for more. And she's certainly one of the plants that makes me pay attention to how much she's consuming. But here's what I really like about the situation: She's not showing me obvious signs that she's struggling. She's not throwing up warning flags everywhere. She's growing. She's flowering. She's maintaining that beautiful colour. She's developing density. She's continuing to progress. So her appetite is simply part of her personality. Some plants are happy with a little. Some plants want seconds. Godfather OG Pheno B apparently wants to know whether there's dessert. 😂👑🍰 And honestly... if she keeps looking like this, I'm not going to complain about her appetite. She's putting those resources to work. 💡 She's Catching Photons Like She Means It And once again, we have to talk about the invisible workers in this room: photons. Every day, the lights come on. Photons begin moving through the canopy. And this girl is ready. She's got a substantial amount of healthy foliage positioned throughout her structure, giving her plenty of opportunity to intercept that light. The photons arrive. The leaves capture what they can. And the plant uses that captured energy to support everything happening inside her. Growth. Maintenance. Development. Flower formation. All those beautiful things we're able to see with our eyes are connected to something we can't see at all. Light energy. And Godfather OG Pheno B looks like she's taking full advantage of it. 💡🌿 She's not just sitting underneath the lights. She's using them. ☀️ A Three-Dimensional Canopy This is also where I really appreciate the lighting philosophy we've been using throughout the 8×8. The main Black Series LEDs provide the primary overhead illumination. But the canopy isn't a flat surface. It's a three-dimensional environment. Leaves are positioned at different heights. Branches move through different levels. Flowers develop at different angles. And that's where the additional inner and lower-canopy lighting becomes interesting. We're trying to get useful photons into places that naturally receive less direct illumination from above. Not simply: "More light everywhere." But rather: "How can we make better use of the space this plant has created?" And Pheno B has created some beautiful space. She's dense. She's compact. She's structured. And she's carrying flowers throughout that structure. So those photons have plenty of work to do. 😂💡🌿 🌿 Dense, But Still Her Own Shape One thing I particularly like this week is that she's becoming denser without losing her identity. She's not a completely flat canopy. She's not a wall. She's not trying to imitate anybody else. She's got her own architecture. And now that the flowers are becoming more developed, that architecture is becoming even easier to appreciate. The structure she created earlier in the run is now supporting the flowering phase. That's one of the most rewarding parts of watching a plant through an entire cycle. You see the decisions she made earlier... and eventually you get to see what those decisions become. Godfather OG Pheno B built this structure. Now she's filling it. And she's doing a beautiful job. 💨 Environment – Let the System Work As always, the environment remains an important part of the bigger picture. We're continuing with the same overall room strategy rather than constantly changing things around individual plants. The room is sitting around: 🌡️ Day temperature: ~29°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~25°C 💧 Relative humidity: ~60% ⚗️ pH: ~6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 💦 Solution temperature: ~25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~26°C 💨 CO₂: ~639 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 💧 Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h And once again, the important part isn't simply looking at the numbers. It's looking at what the plant does with them. And Pheno B keeps telling us: "I'm good. Keep going." So that's exactly what we're doing. ⚗️ Feeding – She Keeps Asking for More The shared flowering nutrition strategy remains: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ Lemon Kick / pH adjustment as required The current solution remains around pH 6.0 and approximately 2.0 mS/cm EC. And yes... she still looks like she'd happily eat more. 😂 She's one of the phenotypes where I really notice the difference between simply providing nutrition and watching how the plant actually responds to it. She's consuming. She's growing. She's developing. She's maintaining her colour. And she's continuing to build flowers. That's why I'm interested in her. She's demanding... but she's also performing. And there's a big difference. 🌸 The Sister Comparison I also really enjoy looking at Pheno B alongside her sister. Godfather OG Pheno A has her own personality. She has been demanding. She's hungry. She's intense. She's got that Queen energy. 😂👑 But Pheno B has a slightly different expression. She's demanding too... but somehow she feels more composed about it. She doesn't seem interested in making a dramatic announcement. She just keeps growing and quietly says: "More, please." 😂 And then she goes back to work. That's the beautiful thing about having both phenotypes in the same room. The environmental baseline stays similar. The genetic expression changes. And suddenly those differences become visible. You don't have to imagine the comparison. They're right there beside each other. Two sisters. Two interpretations. Two stories. 📸 Behind the Lens I really like the photographs of this girl this week. The wider shots show the overall structure. The closer photographs bring out those developing flowers. And the combination of green foliage and increasingly defined buds makes her particularly photogenic right now. There are plants where the camera has to work hard to find the story. This isn't one of them. 😂📸 You point the camera at her and... there's the story. Flowers. Structure. Leaves. Light. Density. And that beautiful colour. The closer you look, the more details start appearing. That's one of my favourite things about documenting this adventure. The plants are changing gradually. But photographs freeze a moment. Then you put two weeks beside each other... and suddenly you realize how much has happened. 🔬 She's Becoming Very Easy to Recognize At this point, I don't think I'd have much trouble picking this phenotype out of the room. There's a recognizable character developing. The structure. The colour. The density. The flowering pattern. The way she carries herself. It's all starting to come together. That's what phenotype hunting is really about for me. It's not simply finding the plant that grows the biggest. It's discovering those little combinations of characteristics that make one plant stand apart from another. And Pheno B is definitely standing apart. She's becoming herself. 🌿 No Need to Force Her And once again, I'm not interested in forcing this girl to become something she isn't. She's already telling us what she wants to do. She's growing. She's building. She's staying beautiful. She's consuming resources. She's catching photons. She's filling her space. So my job is mostly to observe and make sure the environment continues supporting that process. Sometimes the best cultivation decision is intervention. Sometimes it's adjustment. And sometimes... it's simply: "She's doing great. Leave her alone." 😂🌱 This feels like one of those weeks. Let her work. 💡 Photons, Leaves, Flowers... The Whole Chain I think this is also one of the most beautiful things about the way we're documenting the 8×8. We can talk about photons as an abstract concept. Invisible particles of light moving through the room. But then you look at a plant like Godfather OG Pheno B. You see the leaves. You see the flowers. You see the growth. And suddenly that invisible process becomes very tangible. Light enters the system. The plant captures it. The plant processes it. And eventually... we see the result. Those beautiful flowers sitting there under the lights. That's the part I love. The science is happening whether we can see it or not. And we're simply documenting the visible consequences. 💡➡️🌿➡️🌸 🔮 Where Is She Going? Honestly... I don't know. 😂 And that's exactly why I'm enjoying it. She's on her way somewhere. Heaven? The moon? The top of the flowering mountain? 😂👑🌿 I have absolutely no idea. But I like the direction. I like the structure. I like the colour. I like the density. I like the flowers. And I really like the personality. So let's see where she takes us. There's still plenty of story left to write. 💭 Final Thoughts – Keep Shining, Girl Week 10. And Godfather OG Pheno B continues to impress me. She's demanding. She's hungry. She keeps asking for more. But she's giving me absolutely no reason to believe she's unhappy with the environment. Quite the opposite. She's growing beautifully. She's maintaining that gorgeous green. She's developing dense, well-defined flowers. She's making excellent use of the space around her. And she's catching every photon she can get her leaves on. 😂💡🌿 She's not trying to become her sister. She's not trying to become the biggest plant in the room. She's not trying to prove anything. She's simply becoming herself. And I like her. I really like her. There's something about this phenotype that keeps pulling my attention back. Every time I look at her, I find another reason to smile. So let's not rush her. Let's not force her. Let's keep watching. Let's keep learning. And let's see where this beautiful girl decides to take us. Because wherever she's going... I like the direction. 👑🌿🌸🔥 🙏 Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 This project continues to be such an incredible learning experience. Twelve different genetic stories. One shared environment. One room. And so many completely different personalities. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a place to document these journeys and share the experience with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Godfather OG genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover what these phenotypes can become. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the room. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for keeping the photons flying through this jungle. 💡🌿 Thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into the inner and lower areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us keep the environment consistent behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person who stops by to watch the girls develop. It genuinely means a lot. And Godfather OG Pheno B? She's still here. Still hungry. Still demanding. Still catching photons. Still growing. Still building. Still beautiful. And apparently... still on her mysterious journey toward heaven. 😂👑🌿 I don't know exactly where she's going. But I know one thing. I like what I see. So let's give this girl the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's keep watching her story unfold. And let's see just how far this beautiful, hungry, green little powerhouse wants to go. 👑💡🌿🌸🔥 Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿👑📸

Same as there big sister, 54th day of flower.. These plants haven’t had any work done what so ever, not one leaf has been removed from the start, no folding of leaves, literally just left to flourish in there “natural” environment, and I couldn’t be more happier with what’s inbetween the “mess”😂.. buds are swollen and ❄️, stinking of 🍋.

Weekly update fam. We got preflowers, so we all know what that means. The flower stage of the plant cycle has started. I'm extremely happy the way these have grown requiring no special treatment what so ever. They're getting attacked by some pest but I'll spay and hopefully get that under control before to late into flower. I generally don't like to spray past week 3 of flower. All in all Happy Growing

Ants 🐜 Love It! Peter Tosh nah’ lie because these ants won’t leave the girls alone especially when they’re ripping but moving forward I would grow in a greenhouse because I am having other pest problems.

5/10 - Can’t wait to see how she dries up!! I’m not the best when it comes the drying portion but I feel confident everything’s ok. (pls don't judge the fact I used a scrog for the dry, I had to leave to work but figured I could chop, hang, then run out the door. Got too excited and forgot to setup the coat hangers and the only thing in arms reach was the scrog hahaha) 5/12 - Looks like everything is going pretty solid! All leaves are still pretty soft and not crispy in the slightest. 60%rH and 51F 5/16 - Had a few warm days outside and that definitely sped some things up. She still isn't quite dried yet so we're still going strong.
