I've let our girl blue grow for an extra week and I think our base is looking really strong. It's time for topping to creat the base of our manifold. To do this were going to use he Nebula's Manifold technique by Nubula Haze from GrowWeedEasy.com. I'm in no way affiliated with the site or Mrs. Haze but I have found her website to be a great place to start my cannabis growing journey. I've done so much more research now but it did start for me back in 2020 at GrowWeedEasy.com Anyway I've got some video that will explain the method as I top the plant but basically what we're going to top down to the 3rd node and then clean all the extra growth off. This should leave only two growth tips and their fan leaves. Check out the photos and videos for more details. Feeding and light schedules continue as normal.

The girls are hungry! Despite seeing some nitrogen excess they are still wanting more phosphorus. The Bonnie and Clyde have been a bit of a learning curve, but overall, I’m very happy with these Autoflowers so far! Some of the biggest I’ve grown to date. Humidity has been a struggle this week, trying to keep my VPD on point. Otherwise it’s been a good week of growth. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦🌱❤️😎💨

Look at these beauties . glad I picked this strain its a really cool strain to grow so far. DAY 71 - No watering Day 72- 6.8 ph water Day 73 - No watering Day 74- No watering Day 75- 6.2 ph watering Day 76- No watering Day 77- No Watering *WEEKLY NOTES* - Very attractive buds growing from each plant. In terms of phenos I believe have two diferent phenos. They look diferent during veg, then became similar toward the beginning of flower but now I can Cleary see the differences. WP1 has frosty buds galore while WP2 has frost but not as much and is developing a more fox tail look with brighter colors opposed to WP1. We will see how these play out tho 😎

Day 71. So its perfect example of : 1. Photos with flash , can make your plant looks healthy, but they are not ! 2. Never spray your plants in flower !!@@!!@! ( I did it straight before lights off. And its not the first time or tenth even ... ) Pushing girls on pure water and they are not so bad ... It means this strain is really forgivable with growers mistakes , i will regrow this strain in autumn or winter run 100%. Smell is amazing, Queen is packing good frost as for damaged plant, Margaret is a bit behind and starving asf ;))) Let's wait , weight, smoke and decide , was starvation a reasonable move or NOT ? ;)))) Day 75. Dead Queen is packing real frost, Margaret is just starting to show some ... Checked trichs, 30 clear, 70 milky on Queen and most milky on Margaret ( she has almost none, just starting to pop up and it was big surprise maturity of them ) Think to push them 8 more days and its time to start Exotic Seeds veg for big tent. This grow is last here , it will be my dry room and sometimes veg. Happy Growing !!!

Ha reaccionado bien a sus estímulos , agua , CO2 , luz y amor... Esta semana le daré solo agüita para que descanse de los fertilizantes , de todas maneras , todo depende de la planta misma ...esperando no maissss

Coming along nicely now apart from alittle cock up yesterday where I accidentally topped her while trying too lst but I have managed too tape the stem in place so I am hoping my little cock up will force the lower branches too shoot upwards while the broken stem heals , This week I had too change my lighting too 600 true watts of kingbo dual optical LED range due too the temps getting closer too 30c than I would like , and by doing so I have now got a constant temp of 27c lights on and 18c lights out, Update on day 4 or week 3 , My little cock up snapping the main stem while trying to lst the tape seems too have really don't the trick , and although snapping the main stem is not ideal lol , It seems I've managed too top this plant and still get too keep the top , the leaves all look fresh and healthy and feed so I will leave the tape on there for two weeks and then try and remove it as all I had too hand was selotape lol The breakage really do not seemed too affect the top 2 nodes at all apart from trigger the lower plant too stretch out , as this break was bad , like hanging on by a thread bad , so really shocked it took too the repair so easily , and as always I had just been leaching the soil with a single feed that lasts them 7 days , my set up is completely automated and I only go too the grow space once a week but I have a WiFi cam inside the grow space so I can check the temps and how dry the pots are just incase I need too increase the feeding , but too be fair these autos seem too have a mad feed at week 7 and 8 and then drink one feed per week , keeping it simple has helped I think as the plants seem too love it , and I don't need too do anything apart from check the camera , And that's just the way I like it , I pay special attention too the temps in my grow space and a calculator in hand for the nutrients , Other than that I leave them alone too do what they do , I will take some end of week 3 pics over the weekend at some point it's abit of a drive so once a week suits me down too the ground , :) Update on day 5 of week 3 well as you can see from the photos this week has had a huge raise in production , the breakage I did too the main stem has completely healed it's self and the plant has bushed right out at the bottom and top of the plant where it broke , So all in all my little cock up has actually helped the plant grow larger , I today gave them a smaller defoliation basically anything covering a branch that could not be tucked under it I removed , This is too get as much light too these spots as possible too get them too develop before flowering starts , But so far so good , temps are good and no nutrient burns on any of the plants , and the results from day one / first feed on green buzz nutrients too this photo today day 5 is dramatic , the photo of all four was before defoliation , but the defoliation has just shown how busy they have this week and the bud sites on this things already is crazy , my next plan this week is too put the net in there and space out all of the branches too give the best spacing between the breaches

So wir neigen uns dem Ende von diesem Grow, Denke eine Woche lasse ich sie noch stehen. Dachte nicht die beiden bauen nochmal so auf. So im großen und ganzen bin ich sehr zufrieden mit dem Grow gewesen. Einen letzten Nachtrag nach der Ernte mache ich noch. Der nächste Run wird Lemon Haze :)

Ok guys so she was bushy again and so we did defoliation again. You can see the difference and then after that started flowering even more Plus the fact we are increasing the amount of molasses added to the soil plus the floranova bloom nutes. They are very thirsty girls, taking around 1.5-2lts per 48 hrs So almost like a 1 liter per 24 hrs Very good SoG to make them feel even more comfortable Going to change schedule from 24/0 to 19/5 and see if they evolve! Thinking about adding some humus to the soil as well, other than that they have been under good conditions Temp is steady at day time around 24C top and night time is 18-19C minimum RH around 45-60% Mostly 45% control environment with AC Cant wait to see big colas coming soon! Have fun enjoy the videos!

Day 35 - Thunderhaze Auto This last week this girl has grown a lot and is now flowering. Added Real Growers Recharge for the first time and I'm very impressed with the fast results. Light: MarsHydro 300 set @ 11" above plant providing about ~40,000 LUX at the top. Watering/Nutrients: RO water w/ Advanced Nutrients pH perfect line up, Real Growers Recharge and Terpinator. Environment: 4x2 Grow Tent. Temps low of 66 - high of 80 with RH of ~50% Soil: ~6 gallons of Foxfarm Ocean Forest w/ 4 quarts of perlite added. If you see anywhere that you think I can improve please drop a comment – thanks for reading

Final week!

Week 4! Today transplanted the lady’s in a 5 liter pot. The soil that I’m using is made of Light mix bio bizz Warm casting 70/30% of 444 and 284 - 1Tbsp per gallon Rock dust blend -1Tbsp per gallon Oyster shell - 1 Tbsp per gallon A hands full of lupins I sprinkle some myco on the root ball and water them with a simple compost the made of worm casting and molasses brew for 24 hours. I raise the power of the light of 20%

Folder 11A – Pink Rozay Auto Week 4 | The Early Bloomer Welcome back to The 8×8 Adventure, where twelve unique cultivars are sharing the same environment, the same feeding schedule and the same lighting, allowing each genetic to reveal its own personality under identical conditions. One of the reasons I decided to document every plant individually is because genetics rarely follow the same script. Even sisters growing side by side can surprise us with different growth patterns, different structures and different flowering speeds. Pink Rozay Auto A is becoming a perfect example of that. While most of the room is only beginning to transition into bloom, she has already decided it’s time to get to work. White pistils are appearing across the entire canopy, flower sites are multiplying every day and she’s beginning to separate herself from the rest of the garden. Whether she’ll stay ahead until harvest or simply had an early start… only time will tell. ⸻ 🌱 A Compact Plant With Big Ambitions Pink Rozay Auto A isn’t the largest lady inside the 8×8 room, but she doesn’t seem interested in competing for height. Instead, she’s investing her energy into building a wide, balanced canopy with excellent branch development. Every branch has its own place, creating an open structure that should allow plenty of light to reach future flowering sites. Sometimes a plant doesn’t need to be the tallest to become one of the most productive. Looking from above, the architecture is becoming increasingly symmetrical, giving every developing cola plenty of space to breathe and grow. ⸻ 🌿 Low Stress Training Doing Exactly What It Should Throughout her vegetative stage I’ve continued working with gentle Low Stress Training, carefully guiding branches outward rather than forcing dramatic bends. Large fan leaves have been tucked away whenever necessary, opening windows for light to reach lower shoots without removing valuable foliage too early. The goal has never been to fight the plant’s natural growth. Instead, it’s simply to encourage a flatter, wider canopy where every branch has an opportunity to become a productive flowering site. So far, Pink Rozay has responded beautifully, maintaining excellent vigour while opening up more every day. ⸻ 🌸 Leading the Race Into Flower This week’s biggest surprise is how quickly she’s embracing the flowering transition. While several plants throughout the room are only beginning to show their first pistils, Pink Rozay Auto A already displays clusters of fresh white hairs across nearly every growing tip. She seems eager to leave vegetation behind and begin building flowers. Whether this means she’ll ultimately finish ahead of the others or whether the rest of the room will soon catch up is one of the questions I’m most excited to answer over the coming weeks. That’s one of my favourite parts of growing multiple cultivars together—every plant writes its own story. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Despite the warmer summer weather outside, the room continues providing stable conditions for all twelve cultivars. Environment • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 33°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 63% • ? Substrate Temperature: 21°C • 💦 Nutrient Solution Temperature: 26°C • ⚗️ pH: 6.1 • ⚡ EC: 1.35 mS/cm • ☁️ CO₂: 639 ppm • 💧 Water Consumption: 1.1 litres per plant per day Even under these warm daytime temperatures, Pink Rozay continues producing healthy foliage, vibrant new growth and excellent flower initiation without showing signs of stress. ⸻ Feeding Programme As the plant begins transitioning into bloom, the feeding programme remains focused on maintaining healthy vegetative growth while supporting the first stages of flower production. Per litre • Terra Grow — 1.8 ml • Power Roots — 1 ml • Pure Zym — 1 ml • Sugar Royal — 1 ml Adjusted with: • pH Plus — 0.03 ml • Lemon Kick — 0.03 ml The Plagron programme continues delivering a stable root zone, vigorous growth and healthy development while allowing the plant to naturally progress into the flowering phase. ⸻ 💡 Lighting The entire 8×8 Adventure continues thriving beneath the incredible Future of Grow LED fixtures. Uniform light distribution across the room allows every cultivar to receive the same opportunity to perform, making it fascinating to watch how different genetics express themselves under identical conditions. Pink Rozay Auto A is already showing that genetics often dictate timing just as much as environment. ⸻ 👀 Looking Ahead Week four closes with Pink Rozay Auto A looking healthy, balanced and full of promise. She’s still a relatively compact plant, but her canopy has opened beautifully through gentle training, and her early flowering response suggests she may become one of the first cultivars in the room to fully enter bloom. I’m especially curious to see whether she’ll continue leading the race or whether the rest of the garden will soon catch up. Either way, she’s earned the spotlight this week, and I can’t wait to watch the next chapter unfold. ⸻ 🙏 Thank You Thank you, as always, to everyone following The 8×8 Adventure. Your support, comments and shared experiences make this project even more rewarding, and I hope these individual plant diaries help demonstrate just how unique every cultivar can be, even when they’re grown side by side under identical conditions. A huge thank you to Zamnesia for providing the Pink Rozay Auto genetics, to Plagron for the trusted nutrient line and substrates that continue delivering healthy, vigorous growth, and to Future of Grow LED for providing the consistent lighting that allows every phenotype to express its full potential. Finally, thank you to GrowDiaries for creating a community where growers from around the world can learn, inspire one another and celebrate this incredible hobby together. Until next week… Growers Love and let’s see if Pink Rozay keeps wearing the yellow jersey of the 8×8 Adventure. 🌿💚

Fast Buds new strain CA (still no idea what CA stands for yet). Growing strong and starting to show bud sites now, but the leaves look a little more yellowish than I'd like. I was not checking PH previously and started checking the PH this week. My well water comes out of the tap around 7.3-7.4, which is a bit higher than most recommend. This week I PH'ed down to 6.3 and fed her Recharge only. Hope to see some more green coming back over the next few days.

420 Fastbuds Week10 Gorilla Punch Auto These beauties are about as done as I think they're going to get. Definitely will be chopping them in the upcoming week. They smell super strong so can't wait to see how they'll finish and dry. Being sticky would be an understatement for sure. Both did get a little crispy on a few of the leafs but I think thats do to lowering the lights in the tent. All in all Happy Growing.

Too much stress,really cold environment,some times with the grow light off the temperature is around 13/15C and the air goes direct to this plant because the fan is close enough,the Plant doesn’t give up and has some over feed too,idk why but I’m using nutrients after 15/20 days and half of dosage that BioBizz says and I still have over feed a little bit and nutrient lockout maybe because I’m using some Bio Molasses Blackstrap but if I’m using molasses I’m not using bio grow and I’m using like 3/4ml per L.The LST is because the plant got really tall that the grow lamp couldn’t go higher because of my grow tent size and I needed to break the top cola.

Well I did some lst to enlarge flowers a little more. Day 76: that is actually a nice photoshoot! I love how these flowers are getting bigger every other day, and their shape is gorgeous already. The smell is now even stronger, so my air extractor needs to be always on!

Alright alright… getting to that fun stage. Flowers are fattening and we are going to run them another week and a half for the effects I’m looking for. They have been de netted and trimmed up to expose all bud sites. There will be no larf or popcorn this run.

Day 56 ladies are really starting to get some massive buds, tent smells amazing! I can’t wait to see what this harvest looks like😍😍 Thanks for following & make sure to check back for daily updates friends! Happy growing✌️🏼🌱

Wasn't able to top until day 26. Took 3 clones (max in IL is 5 plants over 5 inches) while topping. Will probably start working on another 3x3 tent this week. Day 28 I super-cropped the new main branches and trained down.

Last week of veg given them a little sugar boost and hit of hygrozyme in every watering this week be getting small dose of monster bloom on last watering before soil is flushed through and allowed 48 hours to dry , will update photos and anything else I've forgotten in next day or so nearly caught up with diary entries
