Very explosive growth this week! This girl has the most enormous lower fan leaves! Things progressing very well.

This weather's been crazy! We've been stuck in this deep freeze for over a week now. The temperature hasn't climbed above freezing for like 10 days – it's brutal out there. And to make things worse, with all this cold, the humidity's been acting weird. It's really hard on the plants, especially without the sun to help them dry out a little. "My Gas Tax x Obama Runtz plant is totally killing it right now! After a rough patch, it's finally starting to thrive. The leaves are this super bright green, and I can't believe how many flower buds I'm seeing. It's so rewarding to watch it bounce back." I can also make it sound a little more scientific if you want.

Day 77. Girl is down, she needed few more weeks, but I guess proved that in any conditions weed can be grown ;) No food, just 1.5-2 grams max of Ecothrive Biosys was used, rest only water. Root system small, but stayed healthy. Happy Growing !!!

Der Reifeprozess der Permanent Marker erreicht eine neue Stufe der Intensität, wobei die enorme Trichomproduktion mittlerweile jeden Millimeter der Blütenkelche und Zuckerblätter mit einem frostigen Schleier überzieht. Diese massive Harzbildung lässt die Colas unter dem Licht förmlich glitzern und zeugt von der außergewöhnlichen Qualität der Traphouse Genetics Genetik. Während die Buds weiter an Dichte gewinnen, verfärben sich die Stigmen zunehmend dunkler, was das nahende Finale der Blütephase ankündigt. Die Pflanze steht stabil im Saft und fokussiert ihre gesamte Energie auf die Terpenanreicherung und das Anschwellen der Kelche, was diesen Run zu einem echten Highlight macht.

Well week 12 and week 2 of flower started yesterday 8/22. Other than the clones everything is looking good. But to be fair I haven't really done much with them. They're like a bastard step child, I only kept em around out of moral obligation. Lol. J/k...sort of. Nah, just some weird bumps on a couple leaves and from what I can tell it's a copper and or zinc thing so I'm gonna get some Proactive, lol. So the mothers have definitely stretched, lol. Bruce has been shorter than Sky the whole time but whatever. That's pretty much it. Happy growing everyone ✌️🍀✌️ UPDATE: 8/24 AND WE HAVE BUD STARTING ON THE CLONES!!!!!!! UPDATE: 8/25 Just uploading a few pics. Happy growing ✌️🍀😎

03/18/2021 Making the switch to 12-12, flowering should Start by next week.

Coming along slowly but surely. In my experience Barney's plants start out small then stretch like no other

A photo gallery of randomness that portrays to all my grows!

I'm disappointed with myself but the genetics are really excellent

Update last week of Goofiez 2 the harvest is coming!!!

I really slacked at the end of this grow, my schedule changed drastically in the last month and I was unable to really take care of her the way I wanted. She yielded a 56 grams exactly.

Start of week 3 today.. Only running 4 x250w hps due to high outdoor temps..max 33c low 23c in tent..topped all at the 5th/6th node. Ec 1.1 ph range between 5.9 and 6.1 ph perfect advanced nutrients..

🍑 Passion Fruitz by Zamnesia Week 6 | The Plant That Refuses to Follow the Schedule Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! Some plants race ahead. Some quietly keep pace with the rest. And then there are plants like Passion Fruitz... Plants that politely ignore our expectations and decide to follow their own calendar. Week after week she continues growing, building, and strengthening herself, while many of the other ladies around her have already begun flowering. At first glance someone might think something is wrong. But that's exactly why this project exists. Sometimes the greatest lessons come from the plants that refuse to do what we expect. 🌱 Why This Project Exists One of the goals of this entire 8×8 Adventure has never been simply to grow beautiful plants. The real objective is education. Every plant in this room receives exactly the same opportunity. The same room. The same light schedule. The same nutrients. The same temperatures. The same humidity. The same CO₂. The same care. The only thing that's different... ...is the genetics. By documenting every phenotype individually, we can see something many growers never have the chance to observe. Plants are individuals. Even sisters from the same seed pack don't always make the same decisions. And Passion Fruitz is giving us the perfect example. 🌿 Still Growing... And That's Perfectly Fine While many of her neighbours have already started producing flowers, Passion Fruitz remains comfortably in vegetative growth. No pistils. No stretch into bloom. No rush whatsoever. Instead, she's investing every bit of energy into building herself. Her canopy has become noticeably fuller. Her branching is becoming stronger. The stems continue thickening, and every new node adds to an increasingly compact and healthy structure. She isn't falling behind. She's simply following her own biological timetable. 🌎 Genetics Always Have the Final Say One of the biggest myths surrounding the 12/12 From Seed method is that plants immediately begin flowering simply because the lights are set to 12 hours. This project has shown the opposite. The light schedule tells the plant the season. The genetics decide when she's mature enough to respond. Whether it's a photoperiod plant... An autoflower... Or completely different phenotypes from the very same variety... Every plant reaches that moment in its own time. Passion Fruitz has become the living proof of that. She's reminding us that growing isn't about forcing nature. It's about learning to observe it. 🍃 A Compact Beauty Although she's still one of the smallest ladies in the room, she might also be one of the healthiest. Her foliage is deep green and full of life. The internodal spacing remains incredibly tight. Every growing tip looks vigorous, with fresh new growth appearing almost daily. This week required almost no intervention. A little gentle leaf tucking here and there was enough to improve light penetration while allowing her natural structure to continue developing uninterrupted. Sometimes doing less is exactly what the plant needs. 💧 Letting Her Write Her Own Story Her feeding program remains focused on healthy vegetative development, providing everything she needs while avoiding the temptation to push her faster than she's ready to go. There's no special treatment. No attempt to force flowering. No drastic adjustments. Just consistency. One of the biggest lessons growing has taught me over the years is that patience often produces the best results. Every plant deserves the opportunity to grow at her own pace. 🌡️ The Environment Remains Stable As with every plant in this project, Passion Fruitz continues enjoying stable environmental conditions that allow her genetics to express themselves naturally. Current conditions include: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • Solution temperature: 25°C • Root zone: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 636 ppm Keeping these conditions consistent removes as many external variables as possible, allowing the genetics—not environmental fluctuations—to tell the story. 📷 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs beautifully capture the stage she's currently in. The full plant portraits show just how compact and symmetrical she's becoming. The close-ups highlight vigorous new growth emerging from every node, while the overhead shots reveal an increasingly dense canopy that continues to expand despite the absence of flowers. Sometimes a plant doesn't need buds to be beautiful. Sometimes healthy growth tells the entire story. 🔮 Looking Ahead Sooner or later she'll decide the time has come. And when she does... We'll be ready. Until then, I'm simply enjoying watching her teach us something many growers only discover after years of experience: You can give every plant the exact same environment... The exact same feeding... The exact same lighting... The exact same love... And they'll still choose different paths. That's the beauty of phenotype hunting. That's the beauty of nature. And that's exactly why every lady in this project deserves her own diary. 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Projects like this remind me that growing isn't about chasing identical plants—it's about understanding and appreciating the incredible diversity hidden within every seed. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing an incredible platform where growers from around the world can learn, share, and inspire one another. 🌱 Zamnesia for providing the genetics that make this phenotype hunt possible. 💜 Plagron for supplying the nutrition supporting every stage of this journey. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light powering this entire project. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable, carefully controlled environment day after day. And finally... Thank you to everyone following along, asking questions, sharing knowledge, and growing with me. This little lady may not have started flowering yet... But she's already become one of the best teachers in the room. Sometimes the plants that take the longest to reveal themselves end up leaving the biggest impression. Growers Love, and Passion Fruitz is proving that every plant blooms exactly when she's ready. 🌱🍑💚

Still loving life 💯💚

It was a busy week full of events. I got them a 600 watts HPS light and microbes to help them grow faster. I finally started the trellis netting to even the canopy and get more from the lights and I also spray the plants again for bugs. I found out that I've been using powder nutrients on my reservoir and that's probably why I've been getting floods two or tree times a week and now the valve is open only when I'm there, because I'm sick of cleaning and I took that little sick plant out. My cats have her now.

i was in spain- so no update
