Hello dear readers, welcome to week # 10. We are not far from the goal here. In the last 2 weeks the effect of the Lst has really been shown. There are really good colas and they also look nice and frosty. At the beginning of the week I easily defoliated them, everything that was dead or yellow and shadowed was removed. The plant has been rinsed since the beginning of the 8 weeks. The harvest will surely take place in the following day. The Fox๐ŸฆŠ

Iโ€™ve added VPD to my dashboard and have now dialed in my climate for a perfect VPD. Home assitant dashboard controlling lamp, up/down humidity and cooling. Exhaust is going to be used to scrub the air and back into the tent. After adding C02 Iโ€™m now doing a sealed grow to take better control of the environment. I was dealing with high temps I put a evaporative cooler just in case if I need to up the humidity or lower the temps.

21 days since my little girl sprouted from the seed๐ŸŒฑ The third week of growth of my Space Cookies Auto ๐ŸŒ ๐Ÿช๐Ÿš€ Nutrients: Plagron and Biobizz ๐Ÿ’“๐Ÿ’š: This week I am applying the classic root stimulator Plagron Power Roots: Plagron Roots root stimulator is a biological root stimulator that supports the formation of the root system. It contains 7.2% humic acids, 3% kelp (a beneficial extract of brown seaweed), 3% metabolites and 0.3% thiamine (vitamin B). It acts not only on the roots, but also on the entire plant. It increases the plant's defenses and is absorbed very quickly. ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿƒ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BioBizz Bio Grow is a 100% organic, but also vegan-friendly fertilizer with BIO certification. Designed for the growth phase. Supports soil microorganisms and is ideal for use in all types of soil substrates and coco ๐Ÿ’ฉ๐Ÿ’š ------------------------------------------ Plagron Vita Race (Phyt-Amin) - is an organic foliar nutrient rich in iron that improves growth, photosynthesis and plant resistance. It is applied as a spray on the leaves during the growth and early flowering phase ๐Ÿ’ฉ๐ŸŒฑ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BioBizz Calmag is a 100% organic, but also vegan-friendly fertilizer with BIO certification. Biobizz Calmag was designed for professional growers and home growers who need an extra dose of calcium and magnesium. It contains the addition of humic acid ๐Ÿ’ฉโ˜˜๏ธ- I only apply it once a week. ------------------------------------------------------- Biobizz Bio pH-/ Biobizz Bio pH+ is a 100% natural and vegan-friendly pH regulator. Suitable for all types of substrates and crop types. For use in growth and flowering. ๐Ÿ’ฉ๐Ÿ‹๐ŸŒฑ ------------------------------------------------------- PRO-MIX CONNECT MYCORRHIZAL POWDER - in the substrate Generally: Space Cookies Auto ๐ŸŒ ๐Ÿช๐Ÿš€ is the only one that grows in the PRO-MIX HP Mycorhize+Bacillus substrate, where I also add coco coir and perlite โ˜˜๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ The plant is already in pre-flowering ๐ŸŒบ, but flowering has not yet begun, so this week I am still giving nutrients for vegetative growth. However, this week - the third week - in most cases it does LST and defoliation twice ๐Ÿƒ ๐ŸŒฟ I use the new Aqua Master Tools P110 PRO PH and EC meter, the measurement is fast and accurate. So far I manage to keep the PH and EC as they should be. I use Biobizz Bio +/- to correct. These are excellent products. I think that the plants are definitely very well affected by the spraying of Vita-Race and the excellent PRO-MIX Connect Mycorrhizal powder to support the roots. All the girls are very strong and stable from a young age ๐Ÿ’š Training: As I mentioned above, I did the first LST and defoliation, the plants usually quickly re-leaf, other branches will grow quickly. So in this third week I do two defoliations and two LSTs ๐Ÿƒ๐ŸŒฟ The girls grow in a tent: Mammoth Pro+ 80, with reinforced Mylar 600D reflective foil Lighting: Mars Hydro TS1000, this light is sufficient for lighting in my growing space. The plants respond effectively and the light is technically very well managed - I try to have 50cm between the light and the plants, so I regularly move it up. Mars Hydro TS1000 Quantum Board ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’ก Power: 148W Dimensions: 90 x 90 cm Dimensions: 360 x 330 x 34 mm Chip brand: Epistar Thanks for the likes See you soon ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ป

Hi 420 Family. Start of week 6, and we are well into the blooming stage. So far so good, these ladies have gained a lot of growth over the past 2 weeks, they have stretched a lot and have now shifted their energy into making buds. The one WW is a little ahead of the rest in maturity it seems, the other two WW's not far behind. PL's I think will flower for an extra week or two looking at the bud sites and the pistils. At this stage they are getting about 1L of bloom feed every 1.5 days but it does seem to pick up and they are getting more thirsty every watering. I guess they will eventually settle on about 1L per day. D36 - 11 Aug - All good and no complaints, other than the stretchy PL's. Let's hope they just make for awesome bud sites. D38 - 13 Aug - Steady as it goes... Bud sites are forming nicely and I have not again spotted any sacks on the WW that initial had about 6/8 sacks on the oldest branches, nodes closest to the main stem. Very happy that I didn't kill her; I am still keeping a close eye tho. The PL's have again stretched a little bit but not as much as last week, thank goodness. They were watered yesterday morning and will be letting them dry out properly before giving them another feeding. D38 Heights: WW1 - 46CM WW2 - 45CM WW3 - 62CM PL1 - 65CM PL2 - 72CM PL3 - 76CM Stay blessed and I wish you all a happy grow!

420 Fastbuds Week 4 Gorilla Cookies Auto This week's update the girls decided to go into the flower stage. Seeing preflower sites all over. Still no big issues from the looks. Added a little GH CaliMagic to the feed to help combat the little rust spots that showed up on a couple leafs. Looks like adding calmag to the feeding did the trick. All in all Happy Growing All in all Happy Growing

19/07/20 (Sunday) 7AM - Set 4 seeds to germinate in cups of water (Trinidad and Tobago, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Jamaica, Columbia) 7PM - St. Vincent and the Grenadines seed shows taproot 9PM - Trinidad and Tobago seed shows taproot 10PM - Seed from Jamaica shows taproot 11PM - Set the 3 germinated seeds into individual half gallon pots filled with promix. 20/07/20 11AM - SVG seed rises to the soil level 8PM - Jamaican follows suit 11PM - TT also exposes itself 21/07/20 The weather and forecast for the week show scattered showers and the seedlings are showing early signs of stretching so I decide to build a makeshift grow tent to supplement their light cycle while bringing them outside for a minimum of 4 hours every day to acclimate them. I decided on a 75W output LED bulb with a temperature of 6500K and 1055 lumens while using my room fan to simulate wind for healthy stem growth. 22/07/20 The plants show slowed stretch symptoms but still not to the level I want, so I revamp the 'grow tent' with reflective material (crumpled aluminium foil for more reflective surfaces) and upgraded the bulb to a 100W output LED with the same temperature and a higher luminousity of 1350. One cotyledon on the SVG strain was broken but not completely sheared off, but I'll leave it to its own devices. 23/07/20 Columbian seed has yet to germinate so I added another from my backups. 24/07/20 Seedlings have shown normal rates of growth so I think the current grow tent is sufficient. When I took them outside they endured light gusts and rainfall for a half hour during their sun bask. I decided to add foil to the door of the tent to trap more light in. 25/07/20 Tropical Storm Gonzalo may make landfall today and the skies are set up for thunderstorms so I decided to keep the plants in their indoor setup for the full 18hrs of their light cycle. Since both Columbian seeds still show no signs of germination, I decide to go collect another strain. I got my hands on a 21 day old Dominican Republic strain that was grown in a seedling tray and left there; It was fed once with 20-20-20 and calmag. The cotyledons were white, the stem red between the top nodes and yellow the rest of the way down, the leaves a light green, and it was no taller than 2 inches excluding it's 1 inch sq root cube. I immediately transplanted it into my remaining half gallon pot upon returning home, dampened the soil with my spray bottle and left it to sit with the others and finish the light cycle.

Se trasplanto a macetas de 10 litros y otras en 8 litros, a la tercera semana. Se realizaron 3 podas y apicales, cada 7 dias. Su crecimiento se retraso un poco debido a un problema en el medidor de ph. La idea original era 4 semanas de vegetativo y posterior floracion. En vista de lo acontecido se excendera el periodo vegetativo hasta la semana 5. El riego a partir de la semana 3 se realiza cada 3 dias, con agregado de fertilizante cada riego de promedio.

๐Ÿ‘‘ Godfather OG โ€“ Pheno A Week 8 | The Demanding Queen Welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! If last week Godfather OG Pheno A was reaching for the sky, this week she's making something very clear... She's demanding. ๐Ÿ‘‘ Of all the ladies in the room, this phenotype has been one of the harder ones to keep up with. She seems to want more food, more attention, more everything. While the rest of the room follows along quite comfortably, she keeps asking for just a little bit more. But that's also what makes phenotype hunting so fascinating. Twelve genetics. One environment. One feeding strategy. 24 completely different personalities. And Godfather OG Pheno A definitely has a personality. ๐ŸŒฑ A Plant That Keeps Asking for More At approximately 169 cm, she's still one of the tallest plants in the room. The impressive part isn't simply her height, though. It's how much flower development she's carrying along that structure. She's still stretching, still reaching, and still building new flower sites while gradually transitioning toward heavier production. Keeping up with her hasn't always been easy, but she's rewarding the extra attention with some beautiful development. ๐ŸŒธ The Flowers Are Starting to Get Interesting This is probably what I'm enjoying most this week. The bud formation is becoming much more obvious, and the flowers are beginning to take on their own shape rather than simply looking like early clusters. There's a lot of fresh white pistil growth, increasingly visible resin production, and a structure that makes me very curious about where she'll end up. And then there's the smell... She's starting to develop an aroma that is becoming increasingly noticeable every time I work around her. I have a feeling this girl may surprise me. It's still too early to make any predictions, but she's certainly giving me reasons to keep watching closely. ๐Ÿƒ A Lighter Shade of Green One thing that's particularly noticeable this week is the lighter coloration in some of her foliage. She's not wearing the same deep green uniformity as some of the other phenotypes, and there are areas of lighter green across the leaves. Considering how demanding she has been nutritionally, it's something I'm keeping an eye on. At the same time, the plant is continuing to grow, the flowers are developing, and the overall structure remains beautiful. So rather than trying to immediately "fix" something that isn't necessarily broken, I'm watching her response and letting the plant tell me where she wants to go. That's part of the experiment. โœ‚๏ธ No Defoliation... Yet We're not defoliating Godfather OG Pheno A this week. Her natural structure is still giving the flowers plenty of room, and I don't feel the need to interfere just for the sake of doing something. Eventually, she will probably receive the same treatment as some of the others. But for now... She gets to be herself. Sometimes the best cultivation technique is knowing when to leave the scissors alone. ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ Feeding the Queen As always in the 8ร—8 Adventure, the room continues to follow a shared feeding strategy. This week's nutrition included: Terra Bloom โ€“ 2.2 ml/L Green Sensation โ€“ 1 ml/L Sugar Royal โ€“ 1 ml/L Power Buds โ€“ 1 ml/L Lemon Kick โ€“ 0.03 ml/L when required The increase in Terra Bloom is part of the room's flowering strategy rather than something specifically adjusted for this phenotype. But Godfather OG Pheno A certainly seems to be one of the ladies asking us to pay attention to what that feeding produces. ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Environmental Conditions The room remains remarkably consistent: Day temperature: 29ยฐC Night temperature: 25ยฐC Humidity: 60% pH: 6.0 TDS/EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm Solution temperature: 22ยฐC Root-zone temperature: 21ยฐC COโ‚‚: 639 ppm Watering: approximately 1.4 L per plant / 24h Light schedule: 12/12 Height: 169 cm And that's exactly what makes her behaviour so interesting. The environment hasn't changed dramatically. She has. ๐Ÿ‘‘ The Queen May Have a Surprise Coming Looking at her this week, I keep coming back to the same thought: There might be something special hiding inside this phenotype. She's demanding. She's hungry. She's tall. She's still developing. And she's beginning to smell very, very interesting. She's certainly not the easiest girl in the room. But sometimes the difficult ones are the ones that teach us the most. And when I look at those flowers developing along her towering structure, I can't help wondering what she's going to look like when she finally decides that stretching is over and it's time to put everything into the flowers. For now, I'm simply enjoying the journey. ๐Ÿ’š Thank You Thank you for joining me for another week of the 8ร—8 Adventure. This project continues to remind me why growing multiple phenotypes under the same conditions is so fascinating. We can give them the same room, the same light, the same nutrition and the same care... And they will still find completely different ways to express themselves. Godfather OG Pheno A may be one of the demanding queens of this room, but she's also becoming one of the most interesting. A huge thank you to everyone following along, supporting the diary, sharing knowledge and enjoying the journey with me. And of course, my gratitude to: ๐Ÿ’š GrowDiaries ๐Ÿ‘‘ Zamnesia for the genetics ๐ŸŒฑ Plagron for the nutrition ๐Ÿ’ก Future of Grow LED for the lighting ๐ŸŒฟ TrolMaster for environmental control โœจ Lumiflora for the under-canopy lighting I'll see you next week to find out whether our demanding Queen finally starts slowing down... Or whether she has even more to ask from us. ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฑ Growers Love and happy growing, everyone! ๐Ÿ’š

9/22 topped them at 4th node. some of them are looking better for mainlining that others. some of them i may not mainline and others i left an extra node in case i want to keep clones around. #1 is looking happy with the topping and looks really good. #2 is the only one thats been praying and is the tallest and strongest looking all around. #5 short and such tight internodal spacing that it makes it hard to see whats all there. just looks like a bunch of small leaves until they grow out. i may not mainline this one either be cause of it being so tightly packed it may make it 9/27/24 day 20 theyre growing quite well. #1 i ended up taking the bottom nodes. i was originally goi g to use them as clones later on but decided to just let her go with her 4 nodes. #5 is so tightly packed, she has like 8 mains all in such a small space, its hard to even make sense of it all.

My 2 permanent marker plants they are loving the light being turned up they are praying constantly there internodes are so close together they have not stretched out very far yet. I'm thinking they are going to be on the short end but who knows some plants do complete opposite when they hit the flower strech. I still have not gotten the nutrients down for the one plant I'm thinking when I flip to flower it will it will turn around nicely I love the shaoe and look of it's leaves. The day has come and it's time to flip these ladies to flower. I was planning on letting them go untill Friday and let the smaller ones grow just a bit more but they will be fine. I have the eternity cup contest in mind and I'm thinking timing so I need to get these lady done and out my tent lol. This past week I turned the light up alot getting them ready to flower they have grown a bunch inhavendone lst maybe 5 it 6 times on the branchs and they arw nit bendy anymore that will help durring flower.
