🍑 Passion Fruitz by Zamnesia Week 11 | The Solo Survivor Is Still Writing Her Own Story 👑🍑🌿 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And our solo survivor... is looking absolutely beautiful. 🍑👑🌿 This girl continues to do something that she's been doing from the very beginning: She takes her time. 😂 No rushing. No panic. No sudden sprint toward the finish line. Just Passion Fruitz... moving at Passion Fruitz speed. And honestly? I'm completely fine with it. Because although she isn't racing through the flowering process, she is developing beautifully. She's green. She's healthy-looking. She's building flowers. She's covered in beautiful white pistils. She's producing resin. She's filling her space. And every time I look at her, I see another little sign that she's continuing to move forward. Slowly. Steadily. Beautifully. 🍑🌿 So this week... let's give our solo survivor the spotlight she deserves. ──────────────────────── 👑 THE SOLO SURVIVOR ──────────────────────── There's something special about having a single representative of a genetic line in a room like this. When you have multiple phenotypes from the same genetic family, you can compare them. You can look at differences. You can see how they express themselves side by side. But with Passion Fruitz... this girl is our solo survivor. There's nobody else in the room telling her story for comparison. So everything she shows us becomes part of her own individual identity. And what an identity she's developing. She's been the slow girl. The patient girl. The girl who looked at everyone else rushing into flowering and basically said: "Yeah... I'll get there when I get there." 😂🍑 And now? She's there. She's flowering beautifully. She's just doing it on her own schedule. ──────────────────────── 🌸 SLOW DOESN'T MEAN STOPPED ──────────────────────── This is probably the biggest thing I want to highlight this week. She's slow. But she's absolutely not stopped. There's a difference. And I think the photographs show that really well. Look at those flowers. Look at the amount of fresh, bright white pistils. Look at the new floral growth developing around them. Look at the resin beginning to cover the surrounding structures. She's moving. She's just not moving at the same pace as some of the other girls in the room. And that's okay. Actually... it's fascinating. Because one of the easiest mistakes we can make as growers is assuming that every plant should follow the same calendar. Week 10. Week 11. Week 12. And we expect every plant to look exactly like the textbook picture for that week. But plants don't read calendars. 😂📅🌿 Genetics have their own rhythm. And Passion Fruitz has made her rhythm very clear. She's taking her time. And she's doing it beautifully. ──────────────────────── ? WHITE PISTILS EVERYWHERE ──────────────────────── The first thing that really catches my eye in these photographs is the pistils. So many beautiful white hairs. They're reaching out in every direction. Almost like tiny little flags saying: "Yes, we're still working." 😂🌸 And that's actually one of the most interesting things about photographing her right now. She's not giving us a massive visual change in terms of pistils suddenly turning brown and retreating. Instead, we're seeing continued fresh growth. New white pistils. New floral development. More structure. More resin. It's almost as if she's extending the flowering chapter rather than rushing toward the final pages. And I'm perfectly happy to keep reading. 📖🍑🌿 ──────────────────────── 📸 TWO MORE STACKS FOR OUR SOLO GIRL ──────────────────────── And of course... we had to get some macro photography. Because when a plant is moving slowly, photography becomes even more valuable. Why? Because sometimes the changes are so gradual that you don't notice them with your eyes. You walk into the room every day. You see the same girl. She looks beautiful. You walk away. Then you photograph her. And later, you put the images beside the photographs from previous weeks. Suddenly... you see the evolution. That's what I love about stacked macro photography. It freezes these tiny moments in time. And these two stacks give us another little window into what Passion Fruitz is doing. 🌸 White pistils. 🌿 Green floral structures. 💎 Increasing resin coverage. 🍑 More definition. And most importantly... continued development. She may be slow. But she's definitely not standing still. ──────────────────────── 🌿 SHE'S STILL FILLING HER SPACE ──────────────────────── Another thing I really like about her this week is the way she's continuing to occupy her space. She's not suddenly exploding upward. She's not doing some crazy stretch. She's simply continuing to develop the architecture she's already built. And that's where the tucks come in. Because this week we did a couple of tucks with her. Nothing dramatic. Just helping guide some of that growth and keep her developing comfortably within the space she's been given. And honestly... I really like seeing the difference. A small adjustment here. A little tuck there. And suddenly you can see how the plant's structure is being encouraged to make better use of the available space. It's another example of how sometimes you don't need to do something dramatic. A little guidance. Then let her continue. 🌿👋🍑 ──────────────────────── ? A FEW TUCKS – AND BACK TO LETTING HER WORK ──────────────────────── The tucks were probably the most physical interaction we had with her this week. And that's about it. We're not trying to completely reshape her. We're not trying to force her into a different phenotype. We're simply helping guide what she's already doing. Because I think that's important with this girl. She already has her own rhythm. She's already showing us how she wants to grow. So rather than fighting that... we work with it. That's the whole philosophy. Observe. Understand. Guide when necessary. Then step back. And let the plant do what the plant does. 😂🌱 Passion Fruitz doesn't need us constantly standing over her. She just needs the space to continue being Passion Fruitz. ──────────────────────── 🍑 HER RHYTHM IS HER RHYTHM ──────────────────────── I've said this before... but I think it becomes more important every week. She's slow. And I'm okay with that. Because if she were racing toward the finish line and looking unhappy, that would be a completely different story. But that's not what we're seeing. We're seeing a beautiful plant. Healthy-looking foliage. Strong flowering development. Plenty of fresh pistils. Increasing resin. And a plant that continues to progress. Just... slowly. 😂 She's basically walking while everybody else is jogging. And she's somehow still making it look elegant. 👑🍑 That's Passion Fruitz. ──────────────────────── 💡 THE SAME PHOTONS – HER OWN RESPONSE ──────────────────────── And of course... nothing has changed specifically for her. She's still living in the same 8×8 environment. Same room. Same lighting philosophy. Same general irrigation. Same nutritional foundation. Same environmental conditions. And yet... she continues to give us her own expression. The two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures are now 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 the actual intensity changing according to plant height and position. And Passion Fruitz is catching those photons just like everybody else. Her large leaves are intercepting light. Her flowering structures are developing within that illuminated space. And the plant is turning all of that captured energy into continued growth. The photons don't know she's the slow girl. 😂💡 They just arrive. She decides what to do with them. ──────────────────────── ☀️ MORE LIGHTING CAPACITY – NOT MORE WASTE ──────────────────────── I really like what the additional Future of Grow fixtures have brought to this room. We're not running everything at maximum simply because we can. That's not the point. The point is having more capacity. More flexibility. More ability to distribute useful light across this enormous canopy. And then controlling the output to where we actually want it. Around 59% from the plug. Approximately 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. And that gives the girls plenty to work with. Passion Fruitz included. ☀️🌿🍑 A huge thank you again to Future of Grow for supplying those additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to explore this setup in the 8×8 Adventure. It's been a really interesting addition to the project. ──────────────────────── 🌸 SHE'S NOT RUSHING THE FINISH ──────────────────────── And this is where I think her story gets particularly interesting. We're seeing lots of beautiful white pistils. But we're not seeing a huge rush toward brown pistils yet. And that's okay. It actually reinforces everything we've been saying about her. She's on her own timetable. Some girls are further along visually. Some are showing more obvious signs of advancing maturity. Passion Fruitz? She's still producing. Still reaching. Still developing. Still building. It's almost like she's saying: "Why are you in such a hurry?" 😂🍑 And you know what? She's right. Why rush? We're here to observe the plant. Not force the plant to follow our preferred calendar. ──────────────────────── 🔬 THIS IS WHY PHENOTYPES ARE SO INTERESTING ──────────────────────── This is one of the most valuable lessons from the 8×8 Adventure. We can create a shared environment. We can provide a consistent foundation. We can keep the room stable. We can provide the same general lighting strategy. We can keep the irrigation and nutrition consistent. And then... the plants tell us who they are. Passion Fruitz is telling us: "I like my own pace." 😂🍑 And honestly... I respect it. She's not trying to copy the girls around her. She's not trying to catch up. She's simply expressing herself. That's what makes phenotype hunting so fascinating. Same stage. Different timing. Same photons. Different response. Same room. Different story. And Passion Fruitz has one of the more patient stories in this entire room. ──────────────────────── ⚗️ FEEDING – SAME ROOM, SAME UPDATE ──────────────────────── The nutrition has also been updated along with the rest of the room. Current flowering nutrition: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.3 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH adjusted as required Current solution values are approximately: ⚗️ pH – 6.02 ⚡ EC – 2.14 mS/cm And again... she's responding beautifully. No need to invent a different story just because she's moving slowly. She's growing. She's flowering. She's building. She's maintaining that beautiful colour. And she's continuing forward. Consistency remains the name of the game. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ WEEK 11 ROOM CONDITIONS ──────────────────────── The room remains stable around: 🌡️ Day temperature: ~26.5°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~26°C 💧 RH: ~61% ⚗️ pH: ~6.02 ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm 💦 Nutrient solution: ~25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~25°C 💨 CO₂: ~693 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 💧 Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h And once again... these numbers are only the framework. The real story is what Passion Fruitz does inside that framework. And she's doing something beautiful. 🍑🌿 ──────────────────────── 💨 LET HER WORK ──────────────────────── This is probably the biggest theme of this week's report. Let her work. We've given her the environment. We've made the necessary adjustments. We've added the lighting capacity. We've adjusted the nutrition. We've made a few gentle tucks. And now? Back to observation. 😂🌱 Because there is nothing wrong with slow. Slow can be beautiful. Slow can be detailed. Slow can be incredibly rewarding. And sometimes the plants that make you wait the longest are the ones that make you appreciate the journey the most. ──────────────────────── 🍃 THAT BEAUTIFUL CANOPY ──────────────────────── And I can't talk about Passion Fruitz without mentioning those leaves again. Look at them. Big. Deep green. Beautifully structured. And covered in their own little world of trichomes. They're still doing their job. They're still capturing photons. They're still supporting the developing flowers. And they're still giving this plant that incredibly lush appearance. When you look at her from a distance, she looks substantial. When you get closer... she becomes a completely different story. And then you put the macro lens on her... and suddenly you're looking at another universe. 😂🔬🌿 That's why I never get tired of photographing these girls. ──────────────────────── 📸 THE STORY THROUGH PHOTOGRAPHS ──────────────────────── The two stacks this week are another little piece of the puzzle. They're not necessarily meant to show some dramatic transformation. They're meant to document where she is now. This moment. This stage. This version of Passion Fruitz. The beautiful white pistils. The resin. The floral structures. The green. The details. Then next week... we'll compare. And maybe we'll see a few more pistils changing. Maybe we'll see more swelling. Maybe more resin. Maybe something completely unexpected. That's the fun. We don't know. We're documenting the journey as it happens. 🍑📸🌿 ──────────────────────── 👑 THE SPOTLIGHT STILL BELONGS TO HER ──────────────────────── The 8×8 has a lot of personalities. But this girl has something special. She's the slow one. She's the patient one. She's the one who spent so long making us wait. And now... she's becoming one of the most beautiful girls to watch. She's not shouting for attention. She's not trying to dominate the room. She just quietly keeps developing. And somehow... that's making me pay even more attention. 😂🍑👑 She doesn't need to rush. She doesn't need to compete. She just needs to keep being herself. And right now... herself looks absolutely fantastic. ──────────────────────── 🔮 WHAT'S NEXT FOR OUR SOLO SURVIVOR? ──────────────────────── More flowers. More resin. More development. More photography. And probably... more patience. 😂🍑 We're going to keep watching those pistils. We're going to keep watching the flowers develop. We're going to watch how the structure changes. And we're going to let her decide when she's ready to move into the next chapter. No artificial deadline. No pressure. Just observation. Because she's already shown us that her rhythm is different. And that's okay. Actually... it's one of the things that makes her story worth following. ──────────────────────── 💭 FINAL THOUGHTS – SLOW, BEAUTIFUL, AND COMPLETELY HERSELF ──────────────────────── Week 11. And our Passion Fruitz solo survivor is looking absolutely beautiful. 🍑👑🌿 She's still moving slowly. She's still showing plenty of fresh white pistils. She's not rushing into a dramatic finish. She's not suddenly covered in brown hairs. And that's perfectly okay. Because she is progressing. Beautifully. Her flowers are developing. Her resin is increasing. Her leaves are still gorgeous. Her structure continues to evolve. And after a couple of gentle tucks, she's making even better use of the space around her. The room is the same. The environment is the same. The lighting is the same upgraded system. The nutrition has been increased. The photons are flying. And Passion Fruitz is doing what Passion Fruitz does. Taking everything... and moving at her own rhythm. 😂🍑 She's our solo survivor. She's our patient girl. She's our slow-motion Queen. And she's absolutely beautiful. So let's not rush her. Let's not compare her against somebody else's calendar. Let's simply watch. Let's document. Let's photograph. Let's enjoy. Because sometimes the most beautiful part of growing isn't watching a plant race toward the finish line. Sometimes it's watching her take the scenic route. 🌿🍑👑 And Passion Fruitz? She's definitely taking the scenic route. 😂 ──────────────────────── 🙏 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 these stories with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Passion Fruitz genetics and for giving us this beautiful solo survivor to follow. 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 allowing us to explore this expanded lighting setup. 💡☀️🌿 Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the deeper and lower areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment consistent behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by to watch these girls develop. It genuinely means a lot. 💚 This adventure continues to teach me something every single week. Twelve plants. One shared environment. One jungle. And completely different personalities. And Passion Fruitz? She's proving that slow doesn't mean boring. Slow can be beautiful. Slow can be fascinating. Slow can make you stop and look a little closer. 🍑🌿💎 So let's give our solo survivor the spotlight again. Let's let her shine. Let's let her move at her own rhythm. Let's keep those photons flying. And let's see what this beautiful girl decides to show us next. Because I have a feeling... she's still got plenty of story left to tell. 👑🍑🌿🌸💎🔥 Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle... where some girls race, some girls cruise, and Passion Fruitz? She's taking the scenic route. 😂🍑👑

Start of the 9 week, the ladies are showing nice tops and the smell are really getting stronger day by day! Leaf colors are "OK" (in my opinion) some "yellowing" i guess not from the normal growth cicle fadding collors of this genetic... I think it was from the distance to my Optic LED, i underated how tall this genetics grow, some burnout signs on leafs and that´s not from the nuts also! So far so good, not optimistic by nature and having lack of experience as a gardner but i guess i´m on the rigth path! 👻

💚💚

Girls are still bouncng back lightly. Truthfully I do believe the lack of nutrients the four weeks that they needed calmag cause them alot of stress and will take a toll on the end product but aside from that things still look to be progressing beautifully aside from the deficiency.

Its looks like my best start of automatic seed ever. I hope that will my best flowwr ever too.

Die 12. Woche ist rum. Die Euforia und die Lemon Haze habe ich geerntet. Die Dos Si Dos hat zwei Wochen im Keller trocknen dürfen und ist dabei sehr langsam bei kühler Temperatur auf 70% Feuchtigkeit gekommen. Ab jetzt liegt sie noch für einige Wochen bei regelmäßiger Lüftung mit 62%-Boveda in Tuper Ware und reift nach.

The smell on this lady is absolutely insane. The only way I can describe it is a dank smelling cherry. Trimmed 2 ozs after drying got done and had the whole house smelling. Very impressed with the nose tone and taste of the Cherry Cola and its not even cured yet. Growing this plant has turned me on to the cherry terps and will continue to look for them.

Day 35 Flowering: A great week for the ladies this week with their hunger outweighing the living soils capacity.!! I noticed the leaves were starting to fade out a little over the last week or so . I have experience of this from the last 2 crops with the living organic soil. It does seem that even 60L of soil with amendments is not enough to power through the whole cycle when I grow them bigger. This has now meant I can use the amazing MegaCrop again but as a support to the L.O.S . The herd and rootzone will happily work with MC and have no negative affect on the life there. I plan to push them on the feeds to give them a boost for the last couple of weeks growth to come. The FFT#9 and #10 are both pumping power into bud production nownwithbsome beautiful looking colas on the pair of them. FFT#9 Has spread her budstacks out quite well but did need a little supercropping on the side under the sp250 to stop her hitting the light and get her length some full spectrum too. She has a fuel , sweet smell in effect now and stinks my loft space out too. The shape and size of her buds is excellent. Each one is a chunky ,solid and packed stack of tightly squeezed in pistils and she is not stopping yet it seems. A beauty to work with so far. FFT#10 Her week has been bustly with the amount of effort she has packed into her tight hairy bud stacks. She is a wide lady too. Her dark colour is a warning of her potency I hope.... She has some very long , leafy colas compared to the FFT#9 but her trich production will see them put to good use in hash from the trimmed harvest. She smells really strong of sherbet when agitated or hungry so I wonder what her genetics were from amd cannotnwsit to find out all of these FTT mystery strains. not a bad one among them so far and I don't think there will any dissatisfaction from these girls either. Nice Job @fastbuds ....

So the past few weeks this plants leaves were canoeing . Its in the same tent as the others same feed and everything . It seems the issue is fixed but still clueless on what happened. So this week i worked on dialing in my environment , temp , humidity , vpd and git it all right where i need it so the girls are thriving right now

They began with flowering. Growth: Plant 1: 46cm --> 63cm in 7 days (2.4 cm a day) Plant 2: 59cm --> 75cm in 7 days (2.3 cm a day) Plant 3: 50cm --> 65cm in 7 days (2.1 cm a day) Weather: Mon 9 Actual Temp 18° 6° Tue 10 Actual Temp 21° 4° Wed 11 Actual Temp 17° 7° Thu 12 Actual Temp 24° 15° Fri 13 Actual Temp 22° 11° Sat 14 Actual Temp 22° 6° Sun 15 Actual Temp 22° 12°

Vypadají velmi spokojeně. Díky odvlhčovači vzduchu je ve stanu trochu tepleji než bych si přál, ale to nevadí, vše je lepší než plíseň. Shogun voní jako svěží citrón. Sweet Orange XL voní skutečně jako sweet orange...OMG miluji tu vůni Jednou zalévám pouze s RQS tabletami easy bloom booster (jedna tableta na 8 litrů) EC 0.7-1. Podruhé RQS tablety easy bloom booster (jedna tableta na 8 litrů) + hnojiva od Biobizz EC 1,5-1,7. Zalévám každou z rostlin tak, aby měla dostatečný odtok vody ze spodku květináče.

Pablo Escobar is growing good. She is still bulking, and looks to have about 3 weeks left. She has a fruity citrus aroma. Lots of frost and white pistils still. Everything has been going smoothly, and waiting on her to finish up. Nothing more to report. Thank you Divine Seeds, and Spider Farmer. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱❄️🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇.

Die letzten 26h bevor die Ernte ist keine tripse mehr kein düngen nur noch flush mit 6.3 Leitungswasser sie werden in dryfembags getrockn. Die oreoz USA ist durch die Risse am Strang bzw Stamm haben es sehr gestresst zuviel das es leider den Ertrag geschmälert hat aber dennoch riecht es wie Koala Kekse in kako kennt ihr die aus Germany??

She smells and tastes great 🔥🔥🔥🔥she also looks good with her purple buds.

day 83 Last feed has being done today. from now on only water. i think it has another 10-14 days. time will tell.

Some beautiful fenotype

Coming to the end of the week she is looking really great. The the 4 lines are filling in really great. side branching on all of them. She got up to 10" which is great. Pistil production is not really picking up yet. She looks very promising.

Everything is getting ready to be trained
