All in all everything is fine, the only problem is these very small forms of life that do not go away, I have sprayed neem oil in the soil and they seem much less, now I have a small problem, I find myself original amnesia too high compared to the others, but the lamp has reached the end of the stroke, how do I solve it? and one last thing you advise me to do a defolation in the bottom of each plant or I leave everything like that.

14.1.25: I've been readjusting the LST. I just took all the pegs out and reshaped her. I got some new LST equipment in the mail today, have been glad to have more pegs. I got some clips too, but they don't seem to stay on ๐Ÿ˜• I'm currently only using the pegs, I have some thicker soft wire, but I forgot I don't have pliers to cut it! Also I'm running very low on Biobizz nutrients, so that could be bad ๐Ÿคž 18.1.25: I have done another large defoliation on PPP1 and PPP2. Also, moderate defoliation on all other plants today. All LST ties and pegs are readjusted. I have turned up the light to 90%. Same distance of between 24-28 inches, depending on height of specific plant. I have increased the dosage of Biobizz Bio-Grow and Fish Mix to give an extra boost of Nitrogen as several plants were showing yellowing. They have responded very well to this. Unfortunately I ran out of my Biobizz nutrients and PH UP. I'm currently using Bicarbonate of Soda to increase the PH after the nutes PH comes out to about 4.1. Obviously, that uses a lot and I only had a 250ml bottle, which I used last run too. This run I have 9 plants. The only thing I'm worried about is the salt build up. Have you used it before? Or any other natural way to increase PH? Please let me know! I've also added Biobizz Fish Mix to help with the extra Nitrogen needed. Watering with 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 with the following nutrients;- โ™ก 4ml Biobizz Fish Mix โ™ก 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow โ™ก 2ml Biobizz Bloom โ™ก 2ml Biobizz Top Max โ™ก 2ml Cal-Mag โ™ก 2ml Ecothrive Flourish. I water with this every 3 days. I did order some more Biobizz Bio-Grow and Bio Bloom. I found some at a reasonable price on Amazon. I still have about 800 ml of Biobizz Fish Mix left, too. It is fairly expensive this time as the plants are hungrier this run. I also got a new bag of Canna coco, which I may use to add a top dress with some dry amendments. Which hopefully will save some cash on the bottled nutrients and stretch out until the end of this run without having to buy anymore. I have purchased a funnel to pour the water. It is difficult, due to the shape of my LST, to water precisely. I have spilt it all over the tent several times ๐Ÿ™„ I've also ordered a 2 litre jug. Currently, I'm mixing water for 9 plants individually in a 1 litre jug. It's tideous. Hopefully, this will solve the issues. Cleaning the tent after watering every time isn't my idea of efficiency ๐Ÿ˜… Thanks for checking out my diary ๐Ÿƒ โœŒ๏ธ

Que pasa familia, vamos con la novena semana de floraciรณn de estas Gorilla Melรณn feminizadas de fastbuds. Vamos al lรญo, de las 3 plantas, me quede con 2 por espacio, siempre pongo alguna semilla de mรกs por si no abriese alguna por no perder ese hueco del indoor. Tambiรฉn se trasplantaron a su maceta definitiva, en este caso de 7 litros que ademรกs provocรณ un shock que tambiรฉn solucione. El ph se controla en 6.2 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 20/24 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. Las flores estรกn bien prietas y sacan unos aromas afrutados y dulces increible, estรก acabando de madurar pero no veas como se han puesto. Hasta aquรญ todo, Buenos humos ๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿ’จ

Easy week just coasting on RO and flawless finish, watching these girls live out their last days. Went 24 hours before harvest without water, made for nice easy deleafing. Hanging in the dry tent at 58-60% RH for the next 7-14 days with a fan indirectly moving air. Once I got the plants out of the pots to check out the roots could see right away they were having issues. Usually can pick up the whole soil block with the remaining stem, but two of three ripped out of the soil when I tried. The airdomes which are normally packed with nice healthy roots had mostly slimy dark roots. Not looking great at all, still thinking it was my shocking then with wrong nutes that did it. Have never seen such unhealthy roots, surprised they finished! Have a few more seed will have to run her again down the road. Thanks for following along, keep an eye for final weight once dry is done.

Week 10 Hi everyone, Everything going brilliantly. Girls are gaining weight, trichomes development it's amazing. As for now some buds up to 10-20% amber and some are still almost 100% clear and milky. Leaves are still pretty green and I may keep nutrients for this week but all will depend of trichomes palette before switching just to water. Please stay tuned for daily updates Have a great week everyone Peace and love โœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿ’š 25/09 Day 64 Watering approximately 2.5l per pot. runoff 50-100ml. This lasting on avarage for 2-2,5 day. 27/09 Day 66 All going smooth. Girls are covered with frost. Noticing some more amber trichomes. Will keep watering them with nutrients tonight and will keep observing closely their development before cutting off nutes completely. 30/09 Day 69 We are approaching final days of this amazing journey๐Ÿ˜After closer look decided to flush this morning. Only water and Fish Shit on ratio 0.4ml per 1 ltr. Flushed with approx 3 ltr per pot. Runoff 50-100ml. Runoff ph 6.4. 01/10 day 70 It's the end of week10 Currently trichomes at some buds up to 20-30% amber ๐Ÿ˜ and on the rest milky with small groups of amber 5% As its a soli grow we have a good few days for development. Not sure about harvest day yet but I would say 6-14 days at most. Thank you so much for all support, likes and comments ๐Ÿ˜ŠโœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿ’š Stay tuned as best still to come ๐Ÿ˜ Peace and love brothers and sisters

๐Ÿ‘ 8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Week 12 Passion Fruitz by Zamnesia The Slow Girl Is Still Stealing The Spotlight ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟโœจ Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And here she is... Our beautiful Passion Fruitz solo survivor. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ Still stunning. Still green. Still developing. Still completely herself. And... slow as fuck. ๐Ÿ˜‚ There is simply no other way to say it. She's taking her sweet time. Her very, very sweet time. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘ But here's the thing... She's beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. She's developing those gorgeous floral structures. She's producing beautiful calyxes. She's covered in fresh white hairs. She's building her flowers. She's evolving. She's just doing it at a pace that is noticeably different from almost everybody else in this room. And honestly? I love it. Because she is such a perfect example of something this entire 8ร—8 Adventure has been trying to demonstrate: Same room. Same environment. Same photons. Same general care. Different genetics. Different timing. Different expression. Different story. And Passion Fruitz is writing hers at her own speed. So this week... we're not rushing her. We're not comparing her against anybody else's calendar. We're simply giving this beautiful girl the spotlight. ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ‘‘โœจ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฑ WEEK 12 โ€“ SLOW AS FUCK, BEAUTIFUL AS EVER โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Passion Fruitz continues to move forward. Slowly. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Very slowly. But definitely forward. And I think that's the important distinction. She's not stuck. She's not sitting there doing nothing. She's developing. She's just doing everything on Passion Fruitz time. Look closely at the photographs and you'll see it. The flowers continue to develop. The calyxes are becoming more pronounced. The white pistils are still everywhere. The floral structures are becoming more defined. And the plant continues to look beautiful. She's simply not following the same schedule as some of the other girls. And that's perfectly fine. Because plants don't carry calendars. They carry genetics. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ“… And her genetics are clearly saying: "Relax... I'll get there." ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜‚ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ THE GIRL WHO REFUSES TO RUSH โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ If this girl has taught me anything, it's patience. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘ I've watched other plants move ahead. I've watched flowering accelerate. I've watched flowers begin changing. I've watched other girls start looking much closer to the final stages. And Passion Fruitz? She's basically sitting there with a cup of tea. "Yeah, yeah... I'm getting there." ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜• And honestly... fair enough. Because she's giving us something just as valuable as speed: A different expression. She's allowing us to see how the same room can produce completely different flowering rhythms. That's one of the reasons I love having all these individual diaries. If you only saw one plant, you might think: "Why is she moving so slowly?" But when you see the entire room... you realize: She's not doing anything wrong. She's simply different. And that's exactly what we wanted to observe. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ BEAUTIFUL CALYXES, BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The flowers are becoming the real stars of the show now. And honestly... they're gorgeous. ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ‘ The calyxes are becoming increasingly visible within the developing flowers, creating more definition and texture throughout the flowering sites. And then you have those beautiful white pistils. So many of them. Fresh. Bright. Reaching outward from the developing flowers. They give the plant that unmistakable look of continued floral development. And I absolutely love photographing them. Because when you get close... you start seeing the architecture inside the flower. It's not just: "There's a bud." It's: "Look at all those individual structures coming together." Calyxes. Pistils. Sugar leaves. Resin. Layers upon layers of development. And Passion Fruitz is doing all of it... at her own pace. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ? THE WHITE HAIRS ARE STILL TELLING US A STORY โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ One of the things I keep coming back to with this girl is her pistils. They are still beautifully white and prominent. And that's another visual reminder that she's continuing to develop. We're not seeing her suddenly race through every stage simply because the calendar says Week 12. Instead, she's continuing to produce fresh-looking floral structures and pistils while slowly building the flowers underneath them. That's important. The plant isn't required to match the visual timeline of another plant simply because they share the same room. She's showing us her own progression. And that's what we're documenting. The white hairs aren't just decoration. They're part of the visual story of the flowers developing. And right now... Passion Fruitz has a very beautiful story to tell. ?๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ ANOTHER WEEK, ANOTHER SNAPSHOT IN TIME โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ And this is exactly why I love taking these photographs. Because if you only looked at Passion Fruitz once every few weeks, you might think: "Well, she looks pretty similar." But put the photographs side by side... and suddenly you see it. The flowers are changing. The structures are becoming more defined. The plant is maturing. The floral sites are becoming more substantial. The pistils are evolving. The resin continues developing. It's not necessarily dramatic. It's gradual. And that's what makes documenting a slow phenotype so interesting. We're capturing the tiny steps. The small changes. The subtle evolution. Week by week. Photograph by photograph. And eventually... those tiny changes become a completely different plant. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘ SHE'S SLOW โ€“ NOT STAGNANT โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ I want to emphasize this because it's one of the easiest things to misunderstand when comparing plants. Slow does not automatically mean something is wrong. Passion Fruitz is a perfect example. She's slower than many of the other plants in the room. But look at her. She's beautiful. She's flowering. She's producing pistils. She's developing calyxes. She's building structure. She's continuing to evolve. So I'm not interested in forcing her to move faster simply because another plant is further ahead. Her pace is part of her phenotype. And that's something worth documenting rather than trying to erase. This is the 8ร—8 Adventure. We're not trying to make everybody identical. We're trying to see what everybody does. And Passion Fruitz is giving us one hell of a lesson in patience. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ SAME ROOM โ€“ COMPLETELY DIFFERENT CLOCK โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This is still one of my favourite parts of this experiment. Twelve plants. One room. Shared environmental conditions. Shared lighting philosophy. Shared irrigation. Shared nutritional foundation. And yet... different clocks. Some plants move quickly. Some plants take longer. Some develop one way. Some develop another. Some get large. Some stay compact. Some stack quickly. Some take their time. And Passion Fruitz? She's operating on her own calendar. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“…๐Ÿ‘ But that's exactly what makes her valuable to this project. She's showing us that "Week 12" doesn't necessarily mean every plant should look the same. Week number is a reference point. The plant itself tells the story. And her story is: "I'm still building." โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ก SAME PHOTONS โ€“ DIFFERENT RESPONSE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ And of course, the lighting environment hasn't been specially changed for her. She's receiving the same upgraded room lighting as everyone else. The two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures remain part of the setup. We're controlling the output rather than simply running everything at maximum. Approximately: ๐Ÿ”Œ 59% power from the plug and approximately: โ˜€๏ธ 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. That's a lot of available light. And Passion Fruitz is doing what she wants with it. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ‘ The photons don't know she's the slow girl. They arrive. Her leaves capture them. The plant processes that energy. And she decides where that energy goes. Growth. Maintenance. Flower development. Everything happening inside this beautiful girl is her response to the environment. And her response is very much: "Give me time." ๐Ÿ˜‚ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ˜€๏ธ MORE CAPABILITY, CONTROLLED OUTPUT โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The additional Future of Grow fixtures have also been a great part of this experiment because they give us more capability without forcing us to use maximum output. We don't need to run everything flat out just because we can. We have the capacity. We can control the output. We can measure what the plants are receiving. And we can find a practical operating point. Around 59% from the plug. Approximately 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. And Passion Fruitz gets to enjoy the same artificial sun as the rest of the jungle. โ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ‘ A huge thank you again to Future of Grow for providing those additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to test them here in the 8ร—8 Adventure. It's been fascinating watching twelve completely different plants interpret the same lighting environment. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ THE PLANT DOESN'T NEED ME TO FORCE HER โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ And this is probably the biggest lesson from Passion Fruitz. At this point... I'm not trying to make her faster. I'm not trying to make her look like another plant. I'm not trying to force her into somebody else's timeline. My job is much simpler. Observe. Check. Provide what she needs. Watch the environment. Monitor irrigation. Monitor nutrition. Look at the flowers. Look at the leaves. And if something genuinely needs attention... then we respond. Otherwise? Let her grow. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฑ This girl has already shown us that she knows what she's doing. She just prefers to do it slowly. Very slowly. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โš—๏ธ NUTRITION โ€“ STARTING TO WIND THINGS DOWN โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ As we're moving into the later part of flowering, the nutritional strategy is also beginning to change. We're starting to reduce the mineral nutrition gradually. And this is something I personally prefer. I don't like going from: "Everything is running normally today." to: "Zero nutrition tomorrow." ๐Ÿ˜‚ Especially when working with mineral nutrition. I prefer a gradual reduction. A little less. Observe. A little less again when appropriate. And allow the plant to naturally move toward the later stages. Passion Fruitz is still actively developing. She's still green. She's still producing flowers. She's still producing fresh pistils. She's still working. So we're not interested in slamming the brakes on her simply because the calendar is advancing. We're beginning the reduction progressively and watching the plant. That's the approach I like. Controlled. Gradual. Observational. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฑ WHY GRADUAL REDUCTION MAKES SENSE TO ME โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The important thing here is that we're not treating the end of the cycle like an on/off switch. Plants don't suddenly stop functioning because we've reached an arbitrary week number. They continue responding to their environment. And every phenotype can move through the later stages differently. Passion Fruitz has already demonstrated that she has her own rhythm. So it makes even less sense to force her into a rigid schedule. We're reducing the mineral input gradually. We're continuing to observe. We're allowing the plant to finish her own process. And we're giving her time. Because if there's one thing Passion Fruitz has taught us... it's that she's going to take whatever time she damn well wants. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ HER LEAVES ARE STILL DOING THEIR JOB โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Another reason I don't want to interfere unnecessarily is the foliage. Those beautiful green leaves are still part of the plant's working machinery. They're capturing photons. They're supporting photosynthesis. They're supporting the developing flowers. They're part of the plant's overall balance. So unless something genuinely requires attention, I'm not interested in removing healthy foliage simply because we're getting closer to the end. The plant knows which leaves are useful. The plant knows which parts are aging. And we're watching those changes rather than trying to force them. Again... observe first. Act second. That's becoming more and more important as the grow progresses. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’Ž RESIN, STRUCTURE AND ALL THOSE LITTLE DETAILS โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The closer you look at this girl, the more you appreciate the details. There's the overall plant. Then the branches. Then the flowers. Then the individual floral structures. Then the pistils. Then the resin. And suddenly... you're looking at a completely different world. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฌ That's why I love macro photography. A beautiful plant becomes an entire landscape. Every flower has its own little architecture. Every calyx contributes to the shape. Every pistil adds another layer. Every trichome adds texture. And Passion Fruitz is giving us plenty to look at. Slowly. Of course. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ THE SOLO SURVIVOR STILL HAS THE SPOTLIGHT โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ There are a lot of personalities in the 8ร—8. But Passion Fruitz has earned a very special place. She's the solo survivor. The patient girl. The slow girl. The one who refuses to follow the room's timetable. And somehow... that makes her even more interesting. Because when everybody else is moving quickly, the slow plant gives you a different perspective. She reminds you that the grow isn't a race. It's a biological process. And every plant experiences that process differently. So yes... she's slow as fuck. ๐Ÿ˜‚ But she's also absolutely beautiful. And that's what matters. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฎ WHAT COMES NEXT? โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Honestly? More patience. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘ We're going to continue watching the flowers. We're going to continue photographing her. We're going to watch the pistils. We're going to watch the calyxes develop. We're going to observe the resin. We're going to continue gradually reducing the mineral nutrition as the plant moves toward the later stages. And we're going to let Passion Fruitz decide how quickly she wants to move. No rushing. No forcing. No trying to make her fit another plant's timeline. Just letting her be herself. And that's exactly what this diary is supposed to document. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ญ FINAL THOUGHTS โ€“ LET THE SLOW GIRL SHINE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Week 12. And Passion Fruitz is still doing exactly what Passion Fruitz wants to do. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘ Slow. Very slow. But beautiful. She's taking her time with everything. The flowers. The calyx development. The pistils. The resin. The overall progression. And I'm completely okay with that. Because when I look at her... I don't see a problem. I see a phenotype. A different rhythm. A different clock. A different expression. She's not the fastest girl in the room. She's not trying to be. She's simply continuing to develop at her own pace. And honestly? She's perfect as she comes. Beautiful floral formation. Beautiful calyxes. Beautiful white hairs. Beautiful green foliage. Beautiful structure. And an individuality that has become impossible to miss. ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒฟ?๐Ÿ’Ž This is why I love the 8ร—8 Adventure. We can put twelve plants together. Give them the same room. Give them the same general environment. Give them the same photons. Give them the same care. And they will still tell us twelve different stories. Passion Fruitz is telling us: "Slow down." ๐Ÿ˜‚ "Look closer." And when you do... there's a lot to see. So let's give this beautiful solo survivor the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's let her take her time. Let's keep watching those flowers develop. Let's keep watching those beautiful white pistils. Let's keep watching those calyxes become more defined. And let's see what this slow-as-fuck beauty decides to show us next. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ?๐Ÿ’Žโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ™ THANK YOU โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ As always, a huge thank you to everyone following the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document these individual journeys and share the story week after week. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Passion Fruitz genetics and for giving us this beautiful solo survivor to follow through the entire adventure. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden with the growing media and nutrition throughout this journey. A massive thank you to Future of Grow for providing the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to explore this expanded lighting setup in the 8ร—8. More lighting capability. More control. More photons. And twelve different plants showing us twelve different responses. Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the deeper areas of the canopy. And thank you to TrolMaster for helping us monitor and manage the environment behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone who stops by. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person following these girls week after week. It genuinely means a lot. ๐Ÿ’š This project continues to remind me that there is no single definition of progress. Some plants race. Some plants cruise. Some plants take the scenic route. And Passion Fruitz? She's taking the scenic route with absolutely no intention of apologizing for it. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘‘ She's slow. She's beautiful. She's developing. She's producing gorgeous floral structures. She's covered in fresh white pistils. And she's becoming more and more herself every week. So let's give her the spotlight. Let's make her shine bright. Let's let this beautiful girl take all the time she needs. And let's keep documenting every step of the journey. ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ?๐Ÿ’Žโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ Growers Love, my friends. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Happy growing, take care everyone... and I'll see you next week in the 8ร—8 jungle. Where some girls race... some girls cruise... and Passion Fruitz? She's still taking the scenic route. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ

Esta semana no he regado con fertilizantes, solo agua, esperando que lleguen los dias de corte. Los cogollos se estรกn tornando de un color violeta, en las fotos no se llega a apreciar.

I've had one busy month. Been able to make time for the ladies, but not enough to update GD. Not enough days in the week it seems. Things are coming along nicely. Only about 5 - 10 % amber trichomes. Still has a few too many clear. Maybe another three weeks?

this is week 5. will make fem pollen from this genetics and seeds. crossing with the queen to make AU79. both bridals very strong. this is very very special, already showing me extreme trics in veg. will veg max time 15-20 weeks. I had issues with neglecting my ph, too nigh causing k issues, not phing down, added a few drops b+ nutrient and will be good with my ph. My rh lowest was 23%, so added more red romaine lettuce seeds, dill to grow so I am not wasting my light. It is dimmed to 60% only CW diodes on, NW IR R UVA are off. Only controlling cool white diodes for veg. More red longer wavelengths light for flower, along with uv. Everything is good, extremly positive with this grow! 2 queens on the right topped

Not so much to say this week : everything looks OK. OAH #7 is still struggling to live and will be replaced by feminized Runtz from Pevgrow soon (mother plant for a futur run). I put back the FC-E3000 driver in tent in order to warm up inside day air to 28-30ยฐC range and let plants manage high RH and CO2 (still between 700-900 ppm, so no CO2 supplement for now) : no problem for Amnesia as it enjoy this kind of temp. 2023/06/13 : another (and last) round of Boom Boom Spray, 5 days after first one, during vegetation grow. 2023/06/16 : as planed, I removed dying plants (#1 and #7) and added one Runtz feminized from PEVseeds for next run with clones. From 10 seeds, 1 never popped and 3 died as root could'nt get out of the Jiffy, so it will be a poor 60% rate!๐Ÿ˜ช And I almost forgot, pistils are out!

So Runtz auto is still hanging in there. I was feeding strong as it is my first time using Plagron. I cut back on feed amounts and have increased irrigation. She should snap out of it soon. I have still been having issues updating. So hopefully this goes through.

Siamo all'8 settimana le piante hanno sviluppato fiori ben formati,ora dobbiamo avere pazienza ed aspettare che diventino ancora piรน grandi,la maggior parte dei pistilli รฉ ancora bianca e le piante ancora verdi,questo significa in grandi linee che la pianta puรฒ ancora produrre,incredibile la pianta in fondo a sinistra ha quasi toccato il soffitto,un autofiorente di eccezionali dimensioni,ancora all'inizio della fioritura
