DWC Grow #3 - Week 5 (Day 28–34) | Canopy Takes Over + Trellis/Topping + Space Management (Dec 25–31) Week 5 was the week the plant stopped being “a plant in a bucket” and started being a canopy-management project. Growth turned noticeably more explosive, the footprint expanded fast, and I had to make real decisions about structure, airflow, and tent space. Day 28 (Dec 25) - Explosive growth Came home to a huge jump in growth. The plant looked healthy and vigorous, and it finally felt like the system was “locked in” after the earlier turbulence. Reservoir was stable, roots looked strong, and the canopy started to crowd the tent. I started seriously thinking about topping and how to manage height long-term. Day 29 (Dec 26) - Post-training recovery looks good The plant handled the recent canopy work well and kept pushing new growth. I logged a stable reservoir (temp staying in a good range) and the overall posture looked positive. Water usage was clearly increasing, which matches the jump in biomass. Day 30 (Dec 27) - Strong momentum + dialing light position The plant kept building mass fast. I continued to raise the light slightly as the canopy climbed and nudged intensity upward cautiously (still conservative relative to manufacturer “veg” suggestions). Reservoir readings stayed in the workable zone, and water level continued to drop steadily, confirming she’s drinking. Day 31 (Dec 28) - Steady readings, steady push No big interventions - more “observe, tuck, and keep it stable.” The canopy was getting denser, and I could tell the next phase would be about preventing the tent from turning into a packed, hard-to-service jungle. Day 32 (Dec 29) - Space management: moved extraction hardware outside To reclaim headroom and working space, I moved the inline fan and carbon filter outside the tent. This was purely about space and practicality as the plant expands. I kept an eye on airflow behavior and made sure the setup still pulled properly. Day 33 (Dec 30) - Canopy density reality check Canopy got dense enough that it started feeling like a “light and airflow engineering” problem. I did a light prune (nothing extreme - more like clearing obvious blockers). I also noticed some droop and ended up focusing on reservoir basics: keeping the root zone oxygenated and avoiding a too-high water line. I siphoned out some water to bring the level down. The water looked a bit murky but didn’t smell, which was reassuring. Day 34 (Dec 31) - Hands-off (New Year) I was away for New Year’s, so this was effectively a hands-off day. Sometimes that’s the best thing for me - less temptation to over-adjust. The plan was simply to return, assess water usage, and continue shaping the canopy with minimal stress. Week 5 takeaway: The plant is officially in “take over the tent” mode. Growth is strong, water consumption is increasing, and the limiting factor has shifted from “will she survive?” to “can I keep the environment and structure under control without over-correcting?”

Last week in Veg 😶 Defoliated them and took small vegetation off from the base. Flushed them today as well with above concentrations. After the switch, I will take Rhyzotonic out of the feed gradually in a week and add Canna Boost. I have set the time to 12 - 12 now 💤 And I have taken a clone off of Renaissane # 2nd pheno (1st in the row), hopefully it lives, I will keep posted.

Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 5 in the Pink Rozay saga, and let me tell you, the excitement is reaching new heights. Our girl is not just growing; she's evolving into a verdant masterpiece, filling up the Scrog net like a true champion. It's a sight that warms the heart of any dedicated grower. The addition of the Scrog net has proven to be a game-changer. It's like Pink Rozay decided to become a botanical architect, crafting a masterpiece of greenery. The benefits of a full canopy are becoming increasingly evident. Every inch is utilized, and the plant structure is nothing short of perfection. It's like witnessing nature's artistry unfold before my very eyes. And let's talk about the newest member of the team – the Future Of Grow 600W full spectrum LED. This light is nothing short of amazing. It's like giving Pink Rozay the perfect spotlight to showcase her beauty. The plant structure is thriving under its spectrum, and I can see the promise of lush, dense buds in the near future. The room is bathed in a glow that whispers promises of a bountiful harvest. With the room now so full, I can feel the anticipation building. It's almost time for the delicate dance of defoliation. Soon, I'll be making space for the buds to reach their full potential. It's like preparing the stage for the main act of the botanical ballet – the transition to the flowering stage. The energy in the room is electric, and I can sense the Pink Rozay's readiness to embrace the next phase of her journey. As I prepare to defoliate and flip into flower, I'm reminded of the careful balance in this artful process. It's not just about removing leaves; it's about sculpting the plant to maximize light penetration and airflow, ensuring every bud receives its fair share of energy. It's like pruning the masterpiece to enhance its beauty. (but this is for next week episode stay tuned) This journey has been a testament to the power of patience, care, and understanding the needs of the plant. The Pink Rozay has become more than just a cultivation project; she's a living, breathing work of art. And as we step into the flowering phase, I can't help but feel a sense of pride and gratitude for being a part of this extraordinary journey. As always, a massive shout-out to Aptus Holland for being the backbone of this green adventure, and to Future Of Grow for providing the perfect illumination for Pink Rozay's stage. Stay tuned, fellow growers, as we venture into the enchanting world of flowering. The Pink Rozay saga continues, and I'm thrilled to have you all along for the ride.

Day 12F-19F (May 3rd - May 10th) (Day 13) Pots are still super heavy and I don’t see these things drying out anytime soon so we’ll see over the next few days. Still no signs of overwatering. (Day 14) I’m going to do a little lst. Better late than never and since the pots are saturated the stems are bendier. I noticed they were quite droopy during lights off but are praying by lights on. (Day 16) Man these things are filling out slow. I’m going to drop the light a few inches and see if that helps at all. Definitely no early trichs. (Day 19) So I haven’t had to water at all in the last 10 days and the pots are still quite heavy. Oddly enough, I still see no signs of overwatering. Perlite did it’s job I guess.

Sounds like another great strain to grow, 27% T.H.C., up to 600 grams per square metre, 70% indica & around 7 weeks of flowering. Plan is to mainline her currently week 2 day 9 of veg, started her straight into rock wool & sprouted in a few days. Started her on nutrients after a few days at 0.75ml per litre & increased to 2ml per litre start of week 2 & planted into final home, 15 litre pro pot going great.

📆 Semana 6 ¡Qué semanita se ha marcado la Grease Monkey! Ya se nota que está bien metida en floración: los cogollos empiezan a coger buena forma, cada vez más apretados y resinosos. Tiene ese rollo pegajoso que tanto nos gusta, y las hojas cercanas a las flores ya brillan con tricomas por todos lados. Estoy siguiendo con la gama de XpertNutrients, que le está sentando de lujo. No he tocado mucho la receta esta semana, solo afinando un poco el riego para adaptarme al ritmo que lleva. Se nota que está en su punto dulce. Los Adlite siguen demostrando que son una inversión top. Gracias a la buena distribución de luz, incluso las ramas secundarias están desarrollando cogollos decentes, no solo las puntas. En cuanto al ambiente, las temperaturas se han mantenido suaves, entre 22 y 25 °C, y la humedad está en torno al 55%, un poco más alta de lo ideal, pero por ahora sin señales de problemas. Estoy ventilando bien y con el ojo encima por si acaso. El aroma empieza a ser un espectáculo: dulce y cremoso, con ese fondo a gas tan típico de la Grease Monkey. Los tricomas están en su mayoría lechosos, así que aún queda tiempo para que siga engordando y afinando perfil. Crecimiento firme, flores con presencia y resina a punta pala… ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

Grow diary 11 Stage 1 Days 1-10 By day 4 all was looking good, she had plenty of roots coming out the bottom of the cube. Day 6 I transplanted her to the 3 inch rockwool cubes that had been soaked for 15 mins in this stage nutrient solution and left to drain for 15 mins, then she went into the bigger propagator. Day 10 she had no roots coming out the bottom of the 3 inch cube yet. Over the last few days she has been getting more exposure to the fan, with the lid of the propagator the humidity is on the low side, but i want to get some air movement around her. She has also grown o.k over the last 10 days. She looks healthy enough and is where I would expect her to be in growth. Temp Max 30.6c Avg 26.6c Min 21.2c Humid Max 85% Avg 69.7c Min 45.7% VPD Max 1.86 Avg 1.03 Min 0.44 Hopefully back in 10 days

IVE MADE MORE VIDEOS BUT THEY JUST DON'T SEEM TO UPLOAD AND IT'S FAR TO SLOW TO DO IT FROM HOME 6/27 Made last week a five day week to get back on track. It's still overcast and rainy. It's not raining a lot bit it's consistent. Despite the weather the plants are doing phenomenal. I'll update later. It's 1pm. It's been raining consistently since 11. Just a sprinkle but it's steady. I'm going to begun uploading the weeks weather on my diary. I may start a new diary for the plants I light depped as they are flowering pretty good. Rain stopped and it's just overcast for now. I looked at some videos and did a comparison of videos one week ago and videos today and HOLY SHIT! WHAT A DIFFERENCE. Especially the light depped 10th planet. Well everything but that was the most significant difference. I'm astonished at the health and growth despite the crummy weather. Continued to rain. Just got harder. Plants are taking it but it's flooding underneath the pallets a little but it will be fine. The light dep however has me concerned. The 10th planet is looking spectacular. The bigger purple punch I'd looking good too. The smaller one though looks to have a pollen sack coming off one of the branches. Considering its not on the otherside I assume it's not just a swollen calyx. I don't mind chucking it especially if that means I don't hurt my other girls so I want to make sure. I sent videos to a few other growers and I'll add a question on here. Those three plants have been isolated from the rest for a few days due to rain. I have the suspect isolated alone until I can confirm. It sucks cause the light Depp was going good and the6ve all got little flowers. 6/28 Well that fucking sucks. ALL THREE plants I tried to light depp hermed on me. I could see male flowers. Luckily I had been keeping a really good eye on them and it was preflowers mostly. At least I caught it. One or two stamines on each plant. Would've been really easy to miss. Only one had STARTED to elongate into a stem so I think I caught it early enough. Plus since all this rain they've been kept in a different location then my big girls. Glad I did that now. Boy the roots looked good on those plants. I just grabbed the stalk and lifted and it came right out of the pot. I held it there admiring it for a minute. This sucks. At least the real plants are doing good. As far as I know. No male preflowers that's for sure. I've got some feedback from other growers and the videos are a little blurry but I had found a light leak and I'm certain these plants hermed. I know I could've tried to save them but I didn't want to risk it. I compared what I was seeing with Google photos and other websites. Aside from the larger ball with its stem, there were also several little bumps besides developed calyxes that were weaving into little buds. Trust me that I wouldn't cut down my plants if I wasn't 110% sure. I might've been able to "save them" but to me it's just not worth the risk. 6/29 I was second guessing myself pretty hard last night due to some responses I got on my light dep and messages I got from other growets. Made my anxiety horrible but I looked on several video's I'd taken again and I know what I saw. I felt better after that. This was after I researched and waited THREE days until I saw the ball on the stem and the groupings of small nubs under a fresh yellow flower. These plants were flowering good and it sucks to lose them. One MAY have been ok but one was a runt and had all the characteristics of a true hermaphrodite. They were only in 3's and I couldn't risk my harvest for an experiment. Still sucks. Oh well. Sun is starting to come out. Plants seem to be doing fantastic. I have one spot on a leaf that looks like a pillar munched on a leaf so I'll probably get the bt out soon as I have a dry day that I can apply it. I'll have to check the weather. I need to start a nute regiment but the plants aren't telling me they need anything yet. 6/30 I fucked up dates or dodnt do it yesterday or it didnt save right so I'm leaving this blank today is the 1st. 7/1 I have still only watered s couple times and I haven't had to feed. This week I'm going to start nutes. I had some external ersonal situations that have kept me from my plants. I'm hoping to get back on track. I noticed some pillar damage so I'll need to dig out the BT. This morning I saw this giant ground hog by my cage. Hated too but had to get rid of him. Of course some of the blowback landed on the leaves of one of my plants. I tried to clean it as best I could. Better than that fat bastard eating everything in one night. I broke a branch either falling around it or bulling through when I was pissed or I LST it the wrong way and the wind broke it against the tomato cage. Nice big branch too on top. I tried to fix it with duct tape but we'll see. The plants need me to spend sometime with them. I need to clean them up. Apply bt and give them their first feeding. I'll update as I go. They don't seem nutrient deficient by any means but I don't think it would hurt to start the nutes. 7/2 Bags were lighter today and if it wasn't going to rain tonight and tomorrow I'd he watering. Plants look great so soil isn't depleted yet I guess. They're growing rather rapidly. The branch I broke didnt make it. Had an idea it wouldn't but I had to try. I waited on the BT on account of the rain. I may go back over and change my mind and water with silica or a mild nute solution or maybe apply the BT. Depends what time I get back. I have some work I need to do over there. There's a few that I need to clean up the bottoms on. Pest damage is minor and limited to one or two plants and a leaf or two only. 7/3 More rain. It was supposed to rain this morning too but it didn't. We got .33in yesterday and through last night so I thought that was ok. Looking back on my previous diaries I'm doing things significantly different than before. I had used a lot more nutes earlier on. This morning I mixed two gallons of 2tsp of big bloom and fed it to the 9 plants in smart pots leaving the container plants as they have much more water in them. Looking back at other diaries I previously had, WPM and septoria by this time not to mention a shit ton of other pests I was fighting by this time. Since I poisoned where the cagexwas multiple times and sprayed the cage before it was moved I luckily don't have that problem yet knock on wood. I'm planning to apply BT tonight to deal with the moth larvae if there are any. I'm looking at plants around this area and im seeimg SOME septoria and pm on raspberry bushes and burdock so it is around. I made sure my cage is not by any other vegetation this year and is sitting on asphalt with the bags on raised pallets. Good thing I did or I guarantee they'd be flooded by now. I've been seeing multiple complaints from maine growers online (AND THEY HAVE HEALTHY PLANTS!) saying this is the worst year ever. Maybe they need a dose of fusarium oxysporum to keep them humble. This is maine. If you don't like the weather just wait five minutes. Meanwhile I'll be doing my sun dance hoping for sun. "Hard to grow cannabis with no sunlight" said another grower on my forum.

Estamos en la tercera semana de crecimiento vegetativo. Nuestras plantas ya tienen unos 15 centímetros aproximadamente, y han superado la fase crítica. Recordamos que hasta ahora solo estamos regando con agua, aún no hemos incorporado los fertilizantes. Seguimos manteniendo la humedad relativa bastante alta, y la temperatura entre 22 y 24ºC. Pero aumentamos la potencia al 50% de ambas luminarias.

👑 Godfather OG – Pheno B Week 7 | Grace, Balance & Beautiful Beginnings Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of the things this project keeps teaching me is that two plants carrying the same name can still become completely different individuals. Every phenotype receives the same lighting. The same nutrients. The same environment. The same care. Yet every one of them chooses her own path. Godfather OG Pheno B continues proving exactly that. While her sister is racing toward the ceiling, this beautiful lady has found her own rhythm, combining impressive height with an elegant structure and some of the prettiest early flower development in the room. She's another plant that immediately catches my eye every time I walk into the tent. 🌱 Twelve Plants, Twelve Different Stories If this is your first visit to this diary, welcome! This entire project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed technique. Every seed received twelve hours of light and twelve hours of darkness from the very first day of life. Instead of forcing a long vegetative stage, I simply allow each phenotype to decide when she's ready to flower. That's exactly why this project has become so fascinating. Every plant is growing under identical conditions, yet each one expresses her genetics in a completely different way. Some remain compact. Some branch heavily. Others stretch toward the lights. Godfather OG Pheno B has chosen elegance. 👑 Beautiful From Top to Bottom Now standing at approximately 155 cm, she has become one of the tallest plants in the room while maintaining wonderful balance throughout her entire structure. Her internodal spacing is excellent. Her branching remains clean. The canopy feels open and airy, allowing light to travel deep into the plant. Everywhere I look I see healthy flower sites preparing for the weeks ahead. It's the kind of architecture growers hope for before the buds really begin stacking. 🍃 Vibrant Colour & Early Flowers One of my favourite things about this phenotype is simply how healthy she looks. The foliage carries a beautiful rich green colour. The leaves are perfectly formed. The stems remain strong and upright. And those fresh white pistils... They're everywhere. The flower sites are becoming more defined every single day as small clusters of calyxes slowly begin stacking together. At this stage the buds are still young, but you can already see the foundation of what they'll eventually become. It's always amazing watching flowers slowly build themselves one calyx at a time. Week after week... Layer after layer... Nature quietly creates something incredible. 💧 Hand Watering Creates Connection Unlike some of the other ladies in this room, Godfather OG Pheno B continues to be hand-watered. Although the nutrient solution is exactly the same as the shared reservoir feeding the AutoPot plants, watering by hand allows me to spend a little extra time with her during every irrigation. Each watering becomes another opportunity to inspect the leaves, admire the flower development, and notice even the smallest changes. It's a slower approach. But it's one I genuinely enjoy. Sometimes slowing down allows you to appreciate the little details that make growing so rewarding. 🍽️ Feeding This Week This week's feeding included: • Terra Bloom – 2 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L • pH adjustments using Lemon Kick and pH Plus when required. The recipe continues supporting the transition into stronger flower production while providing everything she needs to finish the last part of her stretch. 🌞 Under Canopy Lighting One exciting addition helping this entire project is the Lumiflora under canopy lighting. Because taller phenotypes naturally create more shade beneath their upper canopy, lower flower sites can sometimes struggle to receive enough light. The under canopy lighting helps solve that problem by illuminating those lower branches from beneath. Rather than only relying on light coming from above, the lower bud sites receive additional energy throughout the flowering cycle. The goal isn't to replace the main light. It's to help those lower flowers develop more evenly, improve bud quality deeper inside the plant, and make better use of the beautiful structure she's naturally creating. I'm looking forward to seeing just how much difference it makes as flowering progresses. 🌡️ Environmental Conditions Consistency continues to be one of the biggest priorities throughout this grow. This week's averages included: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • pH: 5.8 • EC: 1.95 mS/cm • Nutrient solution: 24°C • Root zone: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 639 ppm Stable conditions continue allowing every phenotype to express its full genetic potential without unnecessary stress. 📸 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs perfectly capture why this phenotype has become one of my favourites. The full-plant shots highlight her graceful stature and balanced architecture. The close-ups reveal beautiful clusters of fresh white pistils emerging from healthy green calyxes across nearly every branch. Every image tells the same story. A healthy, vibrant plant that's settling beautifully into flower while still carrying enough energy to continue developing over the coming weeks. 🔮 Looking Ahead During the coming week I expect the stretch to begin slowing as more energy shifts toward building flowers. The calyxes should continue swelling and stacking together while the flower sites become more defined across every branch. I'm also excited to watch how the Lumiflora under canopy lighting supports the lower flowers as the upper canopy continues filling in. If everything continues progressing like this, I think she's going to produce long, elegant colas from top to bottom. She's healthy. She's balanced. And she's becoming more beautiful every single day. 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Every phenotype reminds me that growing isn't about forcing plants into the same shape. It's about giving them the opportunity to express who they truly are. Watching these different personalities develop side by side has become one of the most enjoyable projects I've ever documented. A special thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers around the world can share, learn, and inspire one another. Zamnesia for the outstanding genetics making this phenotype hunt possible. 🌱 Plagron for providing the nutrients supporting every stage of this journey. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light powering every leaf and every flower. 🌿 TrolMaster for maintaining a stable environment twenty-four hours a day. ✨ Lumiflora for the under canopy lighting helping bring additional energy to the lower flower sites throughout bloom. And finally... Thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, sharing advice, asking questions, or simply enjoying this journey alongside me. Your support makes every update even more rewarding to write. I'll see you all next week as Godfather OG Pheno B continues transforming these beautiful white-haired flower sites into long, elegant colas. Until then... Growers Love and happy growing, everyone! 🌱👑💚

This one is the slowest to progress into flower so far, but she is transitioning and stretching pretty good. I have them on half bloom and half grow now. Will probably cut out the maxigro in about a week and start them in a pinch if flower boosters. Other than that everything is running smooth.
