Flower Week 6 Day 42 to 48 - 3/26 to 4/1 Stepped up my attention with these this week and hope I didnt let them go too far for a decent harvest. I defoliated for the last time this week and spotted more purple leaves. The buds are super dense so I have higher hopes than I did last week Feed this week was 1.25 gallons 2 times. 700ppm total before add-ins. I used 400ppm Bloom concentrate mix (recipe week 5). Then I added 1ml/gal of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) PH balance this week was 6.6 I plan to feed 1.25gal 2 times with 6.6ph and half nutes. This will also be the same for all remaining feeds before harvest. From this point Im simply watching for signs to harvest in the pistils, calyx, and trichomes

Grand Prixx - Wizard Trees Day 115 🚿 She has been watered every thee days with 2L of RO tap water pH'd to 6.3. As she is approaching harvest, I have slowly reduced the nutrients until she was receiving just plain water. From today, she is just about half way through flush, so another watering and then she'll be left to dry back. ✂️ I've removed a couple of larger sugar leaves from around the flowers at the top canopy to improve light penetration, as well as the usual inspections for mold and pests👍🏻 🌸 Week 9 of bloom and she has been maturing nicely, all her trichomes are milky and all of her pistils are amber, her leaves have taken their autum colours and she is ready for harvest - one more watering and she'll be ready 🙌🏻

Happy day to all of you, brothers of the Weed! This extraordinary strain really has something surprising, indeed I will tell you more .... I believe that this 11L pot is of the right size and the right breathability for this girl who is going very strong so far .... appropriate .. . I think two buds have grown on one stem!😊 A kiss to everyone

Pronto per la fioritura😈😈😈

ce jour 27:11:2021 j'ai pratiqué au peut de défoliation mais j'ai malheureusement cassé une branche vue le stade de développement je pense tenté la bouture mais j'ai des doute car bien abimé 👍Description White Widow Automatic Female Cannabis Seeds Hybrid. (Brazilian Sativa x South Indian) x NL Special x Afghan Lowryder. Fast, robust and very frosty. Earthy, hash-like aroma and taste. By crossbreeding our original White Widow with NL Special and Afghan Lowryder, we created White Widow Automatic. This autoflowering variety has a short life cycle and provides above average yields that are covered in frost. Its NL Special heritage also ensures that this strain is well prepared for growing outdoors in colder climates. As with our other autoflowering strains White Widow Automatic is short and bushy and grows one main cola with a couple of side branches. From about half way through flowering she will be covered in frost, making sure that even the smaller buds are potent. This strain can go from seed to harvest in 9 weeks, but will usually take around 11. Outdoors White Widow Auto can reach a height of around 150 cm and yield up to 85 grams per plant. Optimal indoor yields were obtained under a 18/6 light cycle. She has an earthy, hash-like incense aroma and taste. This hybrid variety has a strong indica effect and provides a potent, couch-locking body stone. Medicinally, White Widow Automatic is highly effective against stress and depression and chronic pain. https://marshydro.eu/products/100x100x180cm-grow-tent/ https://marshydro.eu/collections/ts-series/products/ts-1000/

Soo this week has been “fine” . Humidity is under control finally , the humidifiers seemingly have gotten the environment in check . I noticed “it works more efficiently” if I leave a small amount of water in the reservoir as opposed to how long it takes humidity to drop after watering with the reservoir bone dry after emptying . I see that the top dress food still isn’t reaching the girls yet there’s more progressive lower leaf yellowing . I thought it’s take no more than a week for the waterings to render the amendments effective. Seeing this I’ll surely give the girls their pre flowering feed much sooner . I’m planning for 4 weeks so that by week 6(WISHFUL THINKING) the food will be accessible to the girls . Vertical growth this week has been decent , I was worrying quietly on the inside that I’d end up with nuggets on the lateral branches I’ve worked so hard to grow & constantly train. I want to see 12 in long dense solid resinous continuous colas on these girls . Anyways I think that’s it, another week on the GreeneScene in the books 📚.

WEEK 1 - 23/7/2021 - 30/7/2021 My 6th grow! I've managed to finally build a reliable RDWC system. It has been put on hold for nearly a year now. My primary concern is flooding when I'm not around. Another if there is any blackout affecting the water/air pump.  I've had the system on test run for a week now and it has been fantastic. No leak whatsoever! I'm so glad I decided to go with all PVC pipes and bulkheads rather than using vinyl tubing for the waterfall outlet. So far so good! Can't wait to transplant into the system. :) 20/7/2021 - 2 packs  of Harlequin seeds from Weedseedexpress (5 + 1), 12 seeds soaked in 10ml/L of Nitrozyme for the next 24 hours. 21/7/2021 - All 12 seeds transferred to paper towel and soaked with Nitrozyme and placed in humidity dome. 23/7/2021 - Only 5 out of 12 seeds germinated. But all 12 transplanted to small rockwool cubes, soaked with Nitrozyme mix water then placed in humidity dome. I accidentally cut one of the cotyledon while removing the shell. 27/7/2021 - 1L of water mixed with the following: Rapid start - 1ml/gal - 0.3ml Hydroguard - 2ml/gal - 0.5ml 30/7/2021 - It has been a slow start and the seedlings have been showing signs of nutrient burn. Out of 12 seeds only 4 properly germinated and even that is showing issues. I don't have a good feeling about these seed genetics. I'll give another week to see the growth response.

She looks very super big and beautiful for her 3rd week since planted, let's see how she keeps developing, looks super happy.

4/17/2023 - Day 50 Flower: Start to week 8. Everything is still progressing as expected with no problems. Plan to go an extra day or two between watering to cause some extra stress in hopes of resulting in better tricome and terpene production. Not sure if this actually makes a difference, but why not try. 4/19/2023 - Day 52 Flower: finally watered for the first time this week. This will likely be my last watering using the majority of the supplements I've been using. Will be water with a small amount of coconut powder from here on out. Also plan to start dropping the light intensity next week. Today I watered 4 gallons again and made another sprouted seed tea. Mixed in Jay Plantspeaker Quillaja, Rootwise Bio-Phos and Bio-Catalyst, BuildASoil Big 6 Micro Nutrients and BuildABloom. 4/20/2023 - Day 53: Happy 4/20!!!! 4/22/2023 - Day 55 Flower: watered today with about 3 gallons of water mixed with Coconut Powder and 2 gallons with molasses. Also, dropped the light intensity from full power down to level 8. The tallest colas are still only about 8 inches from the light, so my average DLI is still in the 40's. Want to bring this down a bit more in the next week or two.

7/13/25 - 7/16/25 Flipped as another strain is gonna be a problem otherwise. Very stumpy and thicc lady, already smells very funky and rotten. Now we wait and see what emerges in flower. 7/17/25 - 7/19/25 One hungry girl, she is on 100% feed rn. And god she stinks, really gives u burning nostrils. I know copycat is a sensitive topic in the breeder world but he knows his shit. I am abaolutely going to get more of his shit.

This past week has been a blast! After getting these ladies nutrition straightened out, they are thriving!💚🌱💚 I gave defoliated wayyy more than what I see other growers traditionally doing. After the "3rd and final haircut" I defoliated two more times 😅 Thank you the GD community for the support and resources along the way 🙏 My only concern now is the tent actually becoming too crowded.😆. Other then that I am thinking it should be smooth sailing these next 6 weeks or so. 🏴‍☠️😎🏴‍☠️ Happy Growing! 💚💪🌱😎🌱💪💚

💎 Black Diamond Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno B Week 12 | Big Mama Has Entered the Room 💎👑🌿 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And... LOOK WHO FINALLY GOT HER PHOTOS. 😂📸💎 After last week's little photographic disaster... "I forgot her." Then... "WAIT! I FOUND THE PHOTOS!" 😂😂😂 ...we are officially back on track. And honestly? I'm very happy we found them. Because Black Diamond Pheno B deserves to be seen. She's impressive. Very impressive. She's not necessarily the most glamorous girl in the room. She's not the one that immediately screams for attention with every single flower. She's not trying to compete with her sister. But there's something about this girl that keeps making me stop and look. She's BIG. She's substantial. She's powerful. She's filled her space. And at this point... I've started calling her: Big Mama. 😂💎👑 And honestly? It fits. She's Big Mama in her own way. She's got that presence. That "I'm here, and I'm not going anywhere" kind of presence. She's standing there... beautifully doing her thing... and becoming more impressive every week. So this week... let's finally give Big Mama the spotlight she deserves. 💎👑🌿🔥 ──────────────────────── 💎 WEEK 12 – BIG MAMA IS SHOWING HERSELF ──────────────────────── Last week we were talking about the girl the camera forgot. This week? No such problem. 😂📸 The camera found her. And I'm very happy it did. Because when you actually look at the photographs... you can see how much plant we're dealing with here. She's big. She's tall. She's developed. She's carrying a substantial amount of flowering structure. And she's got a presence that's becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. She's not necessarily the prettiest girl in the room. And I'm perfectly happy saying that. Because beauty isn't the only way a plant can impress you. Some plants are delicate. Some are elegant. Some are frosty little jewels. And some... are Big Mama. 😂💎👑 She's impressive. That's her thing. ──────────────────────── 👑 BIG MAMA HAS HER OWN PERSONALITY ──────────────────────── I think we've finally found the right nickname for her. Big Mama. 😂💎 Because she's not trying to be flashy. She's not trying to steal the spotlight. She just keeps getting bigger... and bigger... and more substantial... and somehow every time I look at her I think: "Okay, Mama..." 😂 She's got her own personality. Her own structure. Her own pace. Her own way of developing. And that's exactly what we've been trying to document throughout the 8×8 Adventure. Not every plant needs to be spectacular in the same way. Sometimes the character is in the structure. Sometimes it's in the size. Sometimes it's in the flowers. Sometimes it's simply in the presence of the plant. And Black Diamond Pheno B? She's got presence. ──────────────────────── 🌿 SHE'S A BIG GIRL ──────────────────────── Looking at these photographs... I think the word "substantial" is probably the safest description. She's filled her space. She's developed vertically. She's carrying flowers throughout her structure. And when you step back and look at the entire plant... you realize just how much she's actually built. She's not a tiny plant hiding somewhere underneath the canopy. She's right there. Standing tall. Doing her thing. And honestly... I'm still impressed by her. Especially when I remember how differently she started compared with her sister. Pheno A became the obvious star with those ridiculous "every cola is a main cola" structures. Pheno B? She took a different route. And now... she's become Big Mama. 😂💎👑 Different story. Same genetic family. ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FLOWERS ARE STILL DEVELOPING ──────────────────────── The flowers continue to develop throughout the plant. And this is something I really like about her. She's not just one impressive top surrounded by empty space. There are flowering structures distributed throughout her architecture. Upper areas. Side branches. Lower sections. Different levels. Different angles. And together... they create the overall presence of this girl. She's becoming more substantial by the week. And that's really what I want to watch now. Not some dramatic change. Not some sudden transformation. Just... continued development. More flower. More structure. More density. More personality. Week by week. 🌸💎🌿 ──────────────────────── 💎 SHE MAY NOT BE THE PRETTIEST – BUT SHE'S IMPRESSIVE ──────────────────────── I'm going to say something that I think is actually important. She isn't necessarily the most beautiful plant in the room. 😂 And that's okay. Because if we only judged plants by which one looks prettiest in a photograph... we'd miss so much. Black Diamond Pheno B has something else. Presence. She's impressive. She's substantial. She's got a very different visual character from many of the other girls. She's not delicate. She's not trying to look perfect. She's just... a big fucking plant. 😂💎🌿 And I love that. She's got personality. She's got character. She's got her own way of filling the room. And that's worth documenting just as much as the frosty little princesses. ──────────────────────── 👭 PHENO A & PHENO B – TWO DIFFERENT BLACK DIAMONDS ──────────────────────── And of course... we can't talk about Pheno B without remembering her sister. Black Diamond Pheno A. The girl who seems determined to turn every branch into another main cola. 😂💎👑 The difference between the two is fascinating. Same genetic family. Same room. Same general environment. Same grower. Same lighting. Same nutritional foundation. And yet... look at them. Two completely different expressions. Pheno A: 💎 Dense. 🌸 Cola-heavy. 🔥 Extremely dominant flowering structures. 👑 Every branch wants to be the main cola. Pheno B: 🌿 Big. 💚 Substantial. 👑 More relaxed in her expression. 🌸 Lots of flowering structure. 💎 Her own completely different personality. Neither one needs to become the other. And that's exactly why I love having both of them in this project. The room stays relatively consistent. The genetics tell the different stories. ──────────────────────── ☀️ SAME PHOTONS – DIFFERENT INTERPRETATION ──────────────────────── And once again... here come the photons. 😂☀️ Black Diamond Pheno B is receiving the same general lighting environment as everybody else. The two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures remain part of the room. We've reduced the output to approximately: 💡 ~59% power from the plug giving us around: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with intensity naturally changing according to plant height and position. And I really like seeing what different plants do with the same basic opportunity. The photons don't know which phenotype they're hitting. They arrive. The leaves intercept them. The plant processes them. And then... genetics start writing the story. Black Diamond Pheno B has written: "Okay. I'll become Big Mama." 😂💎👑 Fair enough. ──────────────────────── 🌿 MORE CAPABILITY – CONTROLLED OUTPUT ──────────────────────── The lighting upgrade continues to be one of the most interesting changes in this run. We added the additional Future of Grow fixtures to give the room more capability. But we're not simply running everything at maximum because the switches are there. 😂 We're controlling the output. Around 59% from the plug. Approximately 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. And then allowing the plants to respond. That's what I like about this setup. More capability. More flexibility. But still control. And Big Mama is certainly taking advantage of the environment. 💡🌿💎 ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE STRUCTURE IS WHAT IMPRESSES ME ──────────────────────── When I look at these photographs, it's the overall structure that catches my attention. She's built. She's established. She's developed. The flowers are distributed throughout her architecture. And there's a clear sense that this is no longer a small plant trying to figure out what she wants to become. She knows. 😂 She's already there. She's Big Mama. And now we're simply watching her continue to develop. That's a very enjoyable stage to be in. The grower doesn't need to constantly invent something. The plant is already doing the interesting part. ──────────────────────── 👀 I'M JUST WATCHING HER NOW ──────────────────────── And honestly... that's probably the biggest theme of this week. I'm not doing much. I'm observing. That's it. I'm looking at her. I'm checking her. I'm watching the flowers. I'm watching the structure. I'm making sure she has what she needs. And otherwise... I'm letting her be. Because sometimes the best thing we can do is stop trying to improve something that is already doing beautifully. 😂🌿 The major structural work is already behind us. Now she's developing. And I'm perfectly happy to watch. If she needs something... we respond. If something changes... we adjust. But if she's happy? Let Big Mama be Big Mama. 💎👑 ──────────────────────── 💪 BIG DOESN'T ALWAYS MEAN HIGH MAINTENANCE ──────────────────────── That's another thing I appreciate about her. She's big. She's substantial. She's carrying a lot of flower. But she's not constantly demanding attention. She's just... there. Growing. Developing. Doing her thing. And that's actually one of the more enjoyable kinds of plants to have in a room. The ones that don't need you to constantly invent a problem. 😂 You look. Everything looks good. You smile. You walk away. And then you come back five minutes later because you wanted to look again. 😂💎 That's Big Mama. ──────────────────────── 📸 THE CAMERA FINALLY GOT HER ──────────────────────── And I'm really happy with the photographs this week. Because they give us something we missed last week. Context. Scale. Structure. Presence. You can actually see her. You can see how she's positioned in the room. You can see the height. You can see the flowering structures. And you can see why I've started calling her Big Mama. 😂👑💎 Sometimes photographs don't need to be perfect portraits. Sometimes they simply need to document what the plant actually looks like. And these do exactly that. They show us this week's version of Black Diamond Pheno B. And this version? She's impressive. ──────────────────────── ❄️ THE FROST IS STILL THERE ──────────────────────── And of course... she hasn't forgotten the frost. 😂💎❄️ There is still plenty of resin throughout the developing flowers. But I think what's interesting about her is that the frost isn't the only thing defining her. She's not relying on sparkle. Her identity is much more about the whole plant. The structure. The size. The flower distribution. The overall presence. And then... you look closer... and there's the resin. Another layer. Another detail. Another little reminder that she's still developing beautifully. ──────────────────────── GENETICS ARE SPEAKING LOUDLY ──────────────────────── This is one of those moments where I really appreciate the whole purpose of the 8×8 Adventure. Because if I had only one Black Diamond plant... I might look at her and think: "This is what Black Diamond does." But because we have Pheno A and Pheno B... we know that's not the whole story. We have two expressions. Two personalities. Two structures. Two flowering patterns. Two different interpretations of the same genetic family. And that's fascinating. The environment provides the stage. The genetics provide the personality. And the plant does the rest. Black Diamond Pheno B has certainly developed a personality of her own. Big Mama. 😂💎👑 ──────────────────────── ⚗️ NUTRITION – SAME ROOM, SAME FOUNDATION ──────────────────────── The nutritional foundation remains consistent with the rest of the room. 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.3 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH adjusted as required Current solution values remain around: ⚗️ pH – ~6.02 ⚡ EC – ~2.14 mS/cm Again... nothing special just because she's Black Diamond. Same general room strategy. Same foundation. Same environment. And then... we watch. She's responding beautifully. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ WEEK 12 ROOM CONDITIONS ──────────────────────── The room remains broadly around: 🌡️ Day temperature: ~26.5°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~26°C 💧 RH: ~61% 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~25°C 💦 Nutrient solution: ~25°C ⚗️ pH: ~6.02 ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: ~693 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 💧 Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h Same room. Same general conditions. Same lighting philosophy. Same nutrition. Different plant. Different story. 💎🌿 ──────────────────────── 👑 BIG MAMA DOESN'T NEED TO COMPETE ──────────────────────── And maybe that's what I like most about her. She doesn't need to compete. She's not trying to be Pheno A. She's not trying to be the prettiest girl. She's not trying to be the frostiest. She's simply being herself. And that's enough. Because when you stand back and look at her... she makes an impression. She's big. She's established. She's carrying beautiful flowers. She's occupying her space. And she's doing it comfortably. That's her personality. That's her story. And that's exactly what I want to document. ──────────────────────── 🌸 BULKING AND BECOMING ──────────────────────── The flowers are continuing to build. And that's where my attention is now. I'm watching the structures become more substantial. I'm watching the flowers gain volume. I'm watching the overall plant continue to mature. Nothing needs to happen overnight. Nothing needs to be forced. We're simply watching the progression. And honestly... that's one of the most satisfying parts of the entire run. Because when you stop trying to make something happen... you start noticing what is already happening. And with Big Mama? A lot is happening. 😂💎🌸 ──────────────────────── 🔍 WHAT I'M WATCHING NOW ──────────────────────── At this point, I'm watching: 🌸 Flower development. 💎 Resin development. 🌿 Overall structure. 💪 Branch strength. 👑 How the plant continues to carry herself. 📸 And, most importantly... I'm making sure I DON'T FORGET THE CAMERA AGAIN. 😂😂😂 Lesson learned. Big Mama gets photographed. ──────────────────────── 💭 FINAL THOUGHTS – BIG MAMA ──────────────────────── Week 12. Black Diamond Auto Pheno B. And I think we've finally found her nickname. Big Mama. 😂💎👑 She's not necessarily the most beautiful plant in the room. And honestly... that's okay. Because she's impressive. Very impressive. She's big. She's substantial. She's beautiful in her own way. She's carrying flowers throughout her structure. She's developing beautifully. She's standing there with a presence that makes you stop and look. And she's doing all of it without needing to be the loudest girl in the room. That's what I love about her. She's not trying to prove anything. She's just becoming herself. And what she's becoming... is one hell of an impressive plant. 💎🌿👑🔥 So let's give Big Mama the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's appreciate the structure. Let's appreciate the flowers. Let's appreciate the size. Let's appreciate the genetics. And let's simply watch. Because we're reaching that beautiful stage where the plant is doing the work... and we're just lucky enough to be here documenting it. 😂🌱 Big Mama... keep doing your thing. Keep growing. Keep building. Keep shining. And let's see where this beautiful girl takes us next. 💎👑🌸🔥 ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU ──────────────────────── As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share the experience with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Black Diamond genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover these two very different expressions. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the room. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and giving us the opportunity to explore this expanded lighting setup. 💡☀️🌿 Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the deeper areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by to see what these girls are doing. It genuinely means a lot. 💚 And Black Diamond Pheno B? Last week, we lost your photographs. This week... we found them. 😂📸💎 And I'm very happy we did. Because Big Mama deserves to be seen. She's impressive. She's substantial. She's beautiful in her own way. She's growing. She's developing. She's building. And she's becoming more and more herself every week. 💎👑🌿 The 8×8 continues to remind us that there isn't one definition of a beautiful plant. Sometimes beauty is frost. Sometimes it's colour. Sometimes it's structure. Sometimes it's flowers. And sometimes... it's simply standing in the room and making everybody say: "God damn, she's big." 😂😂😂 That's Big Mama. And I absolutely love her for it. So let's give her the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's keep watching. Let's keep documenting. And let's see what this impressive Black Diamond decides to show us next. 💎👑🌸🔥 Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle... where some girls are queens, some are princesses, some are little frosty monsters, and Black Diamond Pheno B? She's Big Mama. 😂💎👑🌿 Let her shine. 💚
