Potion - Wizard Trees Day 53 - 🚿 she has been watered her with 2L of RO tap water, with defined nutrients, mixed individually in order and then pH'd to 6.3. I've once again upped her bloom nutrients by 0.5ml, as I prepare her to go into flower. ✂️ She had a lot of work performed last week, so this week I've just allowed her to recover and grow more. This will be her last week in veg, so my goal for this week is to ensure she has an even canopy before she starts the switch over to 12-12 👍🏻 ☘️ She has recovered well from the topping and defoliation last week and is looking strong and healthy again👌🏻

11/3/19 - These bitches are sooo strong! Everything is going very good. Feeding is changing this week. I am so excited to see what they do! The stretch has slowed. I will lower the lights next week. Added a new light for the one I moved to the corner. We will see on how it affects the evromntals. 11/4/19 - Gave a feeding tonight 4 cups per plant. 2 cups are Coco Bloom A&B with Silica Blast. The other two cups are terp, candy, cal, big, sens. This combo of nutes and water volume every two days seams to be doing very good. I premix my nutes in gallon water bottles. I love the Crystal Geyser bottles. They only $1 and have nice handles. I refill each bottle with a Zero Water filter pitcher. That keeps the TDS down low. 11/5/19 - WOW, I just love after a good feeding. The girls just JUMP right up. When I took the environment pic, the temp was a little high while the RH was a little low. It has now laid down to 75/55 with the lights on. 11/6/19 - They are drinking a bunch. Gave them 1 cup each of the solutions to keep them good till Friday.

Hello. It 35 c. in the greenhouse today with 5 fans running. Stinkin hot in there. I hope the heat doesn't melt my THC crystals. It's suppose to be as warm tomorrow too. > I have not seen any powdery mildew on either Amnesia Lemon this year. >I have started my 2nd flush today. I' try for 4. But might have to cut a little earlier because>>> > AAHHH, I found a small patch of spider mites on the Amnesia Lemon. I only have a week to go so I decided to turn up the fans instead of spray. Yes they will progress, but slowly and they cant spin their webs in the wind, so it slows them down. And I don't mind smokin dried spider mites (isn't it extra protein). I'm blaming the house behind me, I looked through the fence and they have about 12 large pots growing cannabis, imagine that. >Starting to get some color on the Burmberry and the Sister Amnesia Lemon looks ready to be cut down. > I'll take some more pictures just before harvest and during and after. It took me 2 days to cut it down last year. I wet trim. I grew Dr. Green Thumb seeds Big Laughing last year. They made decent buds but they were not very strong, disappointed. Thought I'd try some stuff that did well inside and see what they did in the greenhouse. These plants were taken as clones, near the start of the year 2020. I moved them in the greenhouse when it was warm enough and did some training then. I started to flower them at the end of May. The tent worked great at forcing flowering at the brightest time of the year. Less chance of problems then trying to flush on a cold October day. I hope I helped makes it clearer in what I'm doing. Chuck.

Girls are growing and growing , gave them another trim as they seem to bounce back 10x harder and bushier lol! Starting to think there may be one to many girls in there so hoping everything stays on track or I'm going to need to upgrade their house! Still unsure on doing a sog or using it as a spacer , sorry about the double photos on both diaries , one of the granddaddy purple plants somehow ended up at the back of the tent when one of the super skunk started tailing off and we had to rearrange their place in the tent , not much to report flowers are coming through nicely 😁 Happy growing 😎

Plants are growing like crazy. The babies are now fully into the veg phase with the white widow plants standing head and shoulders above the competition. The plants that have reached the capacity of their nursery pots got bumped up to 3 gallon pots today. They went in these pots to buy us time until we harvest the big flowering plants. Once these are harvested in two weeks, the plants in veg will go into the large pots that they will finish in. These are where we will do the full bag of super soil. We are using a 33% Oly Fish Compost Living Organic Soil from BuildASoil at the recommendation of our grow store. This is what we used today in the 3 gallon pots.

Honey Cream is almost ready (Aiming for 15% amber trichomes), another week or two and the first tops will come out. The smell is very pleasant, a bubble gum, sweet and almost ripe berry smells, very intoxicant ! Power flower is stacking nicely, but still with no smell, very frosty too. Special queen #1 is also doing amazingly, specially being in a pot, 2.25m and stacking EVERYWHERE ! The smell reminds me of an amnesia haze, very pungent on the nose ! Old Lemongrass is doing a little bit worse, her leaves yellowed a lot, but hopefully it will get fixed by next week. Trichome production is considerably slower than all the other strains, but she is stacking for sure. Smells of a very pleasant sweet lemon.

Week 2 - Cash Express (Pheno B) 💸🌱 Hello everyone, and welcome back to another update from the 8×8 Adventure! For those joining us for the first time, this project follows multiple Zamnesia cultivars and phenotypes grown side-by-side under a 12/12-from-seed schedule. Every phenotype receives its own dedicated diary so we can document individual development, compare expressions, and follow each plant’s unique journey from seed to harvest. Rather than combining multiple plants into a single report, Pheno A and Pheno B are documented separately. Even when two plants come from the same pack, they often express themselves differently, and that’s exactly what makes these side-by-side comparisons so interesting. This run remains under a 12/12 light schedule from the very first day of life. The goal is not to maximize vegetative size but to explore genetic diversity, plant structure, vigor, and flowering characteristics while maintaining a manageable and educational garden. Week 2 Overview The second week has been another excellent one across the entire room. Growth rates have accelerated noticeably compared to Week 1, root systems continue expanding below the surface, and plants are beginning the transition from seedlings into young vegetative plants. Lighting intensity has now been increased to approximately 370 µmol/m²/s throughout the room, giving the plants additional energy while remaining well within a comfortable range for this stage of development. Environmental conditions remained stable throughout the week: • Light Schedule: 12/12 • Day Temperature: 27°C • Night Temperature: 25°C • Relative Humidity: 55% • Solution Temperature: 20.1°C • Substrate Temperature: 21°C • CO₂: Ambient (~600 ppm) Watering remained intentionally controlled. Each plant received approximately 250 ml on Day 8 and another 250 ml on Day 11. Nutrient levels were gradually increased throughout the week as the entire room continued responding positively to feeding. Week-ending values: • EC: 0.9 mS/cm • pH: 6.0 Current feeding schedule: • Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Power Roots – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L The response has been excellent throughout the garden, with healthy color, vigorous growth, and no signs of nutrient stress. Cash Express Pheno B Living next to a sibling that seems determined to become the biggest plant in the room is not always an easy job. Cash Express Pheno A may currently be winning the size competition, but Pheno B is quietly building an impressive case of her own. While slightly smaller than her sister at this stage, she remains healthy, vigorous, symmetrical, and extremely attractive overall. One thing that stands out immediately is the consistency of her development. The plant continues producing healthy leaves with excellent coloration and balanced structure throughout the canopy. Growth remains steady, internodal spacing looks clean, and every new set of leaves arrives looking stronger than the last. She may not be racing ahead like her sibling, but she is progressing with confidence and stability. And sometimes those are exactly the traits growers appreciate most later in a run. Development Notes Week 2 brought significant progress for this phenotype. Five-finger leaves are now becoming established, new growth is arriving rapidly, and the plant is building a strong framework for the weeks ahead. The canopy remains balanced and symmetrical while maintaining a healthy green color across all visible growth. What I particularly enjoy about this phenotype is that she feels very comfortable in her own lane. She is not trying to compete. She is not trying to be the largest. She is simply growing exactly as she wants to grow. And she is doing a beautiful job of it. While her sister attracts attention through sheer vigor and size, Pheno B stands out through balance, consistency, and elegant development. A Little Macro Photography Fun One of the highlights of this week’s update came during a macro photography session. Tiny water droplets resting on the leaves created beautiful reflections of the LED lighting above, producing some fascinating close-up images. These little moments are easy to miss during daily garden work, but slowing down and looking closely often reveals an entirely different world hidden within the canopy. The reflected light patterns inside the droplets created some surprisingly artistic images and offered a fun reminder that there is beauty to be found at every scale inside a grow room. Not every photograph needs to be about measuring growth. Sometimes it’s simply about appreciating the details. Mr. Baggy Report Mr. Baggy continues his important role as Chief Observation Officer of the 8×8 Adventure. Current duties include: • Supervising daily garden activities • Inspecting plant development • Monitoring environmental conditions • Participating in weekly photography sessions • Providing emotional support to nervous growers His performance review remains pending. Looking Ahead If development continues at its current pace, next week should bring: • Continued canopy expansion • Larger five-finger leaves • Additional node development • Stronger stem growth • Increasing phenotype expression • Further separation between sibling growth patterns It will be particularly interesting to see whether Pheno B maintains her more compact and balanced structure as the project moves forward. Final Thoughts Week 2 leaves me very happy with Cash Express Pheno B. Healthy growth. Excellent color. Strong development. Balanced structure. While she may currently be slightly smaller than her sister, she continues demonstrating exactly the qualities growers love to see at this stage of life. Strong roots. Healthy leaves. Steady progress. And absolutely no signs of slowing down. Every phenotype tells its own story, and Cash Express Pheno B is already writing a very enjoyable chapter. A huge thank you to everyone following along, commenting, sharing advice, and supporting the project. Special thanks to Zamnesia, Plagron, Future of Grow, and everyone helping make this adventure possible. Most importantly, thank you to the growing community. Your support, knowledge, encouragement, and passion are what make projects like this so enjoyable to document and share. Thank you for stopping by, and I’ll see you all next week for another update from the 8×8 Adventure. Grower Love DD🌱💚

13th week. If I am not wrong I started 12/12 light schedule with 36 hours darkness before at beggining of the week 7, so it is the 7th week of flowering.... or 6th ?😅 Well buds are getting thicker, and just checked the trichomes now they are more matured but still need I think at least 3 weeks to be done properly. When I see the milky trichomes, I will start flushing. Wednesday: End of the week Purple Punch is 43 cm like before. Buds are thicker smelly and a lot of resin. It is totally coated with THC, and sticks my finger together. This is the last day I fertilized the plant, from tomorrow I will start flushing. I will give maximum 2 more weeks to be done. I also removed some more fan leaves (those are getting yellow) so I will make some tea. I really love the citrus taste and the smell of this plant.

its been a hot dry week but the girls have fared it well. mound design and soil content have helped keep moisture in the root ball of the plants. Hopefully we get some rain this week otherwise im going to be spending a day just watering them. fingers crossed for rain. We need a rain dance here.

I think about the fact that it is no longer necessary to cut leaves. I cut it a lot, but I notice that many people cut a bunch of leaves at one time, although somewhere I read no more than 10% at a time. When I gave fertilizers, I always diluted them with water even more to reduce ppm Day 68: I added cal-mag to the diet because the leaves are really turning yellow from the bottom. 0.5 ml Day 70: I added 1 ml cal-mag

Week 8 From Seed — Week 3 Flower (Report labeled Week 9, corrected here for clarity) Before we dive in, quick recap so new eyes understand what’s happening here. ⸻ 🔁 How We Got Here These are limited genetics — only 750 packs released. We are running pack 268, grateful to have secured them. All plants come from the same line, but we intentionally allowed structural differences through training variations. All training has been low stress, but: • One plant guided more assertively with clamps. • Others shaped gently. • One allowed more natural vertical dominance. Same genetics. Different structural expressions. Same flower development pace. That’s important context. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment & Room Conditions 📊 Current Conditions • Canopy temp: 27.9°C • Humidity: ~70% • CO₂: 1000+ ppm (lights on) • PPFD: 800 → 1300 µmol/m²/s (size dependent) The room is full now. Dense canopy. But healthy density — not chaotic. ⸻ 🌱 Substrate • Soil EC: 0.91 • Medium temp: ~22.5°C • Moisture sensor reading: ~94% (but dry-down cycles actively implemented) Dry-outs are working. You can see the EC stabilization in the chart — no runaway accumulation. The graph shows controlled feeding and dry-back rhythm. That rhythm is key. They’re drinking well. No signs of stagnation. ⸻ 💡 Lighting Strategy Main Light High intensity, climbing as canopy grows. 🌞 UVA / UVB — 6 Hours Mid-Cycle Purpose: • Mild stress stimulus. • Activation of plant defense mechanisms. • Potential terpene upregulation. • Resin density encouragement. Important: UV is not a magic switch. It is a controlled stress input. We are applying it during peak metabolic activity — that’s strategic. Monitor for: • Leaf tacoing • Excessive stress response • Overly rapid senescence So far? They look stable. ⸻ 🔴 15 Minutes End-of-Day Red Extension We’re adding 15 minutes of red-only at lights-off transition. Theory: • Increased phytochrome conversion (Pfr → Pr) • Faster “sleep signal” • More defined photoperiod closure In practical terms: We’re tightening the circadian signal. Will it radically change yield? Probably not. Will it refine plant rhythm? Possibly yes. And importantly — it’s controlled, not excessive. ⸻ 🔦 Undercanopy Lighting This is significant in the setup. Benefits: • Lower bud site development • Reduced larf • Improved airflow • More uniform photosynthetic distribution In a dense canopy like yours, this matters. The under-shots shows you good structural spacing — not suffocated. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Structure & Development All plants are: • Strongly branching • Aggressively stacking • Frost levels increasing rapidly The trained plant: • Slightly smaller • More guided architecture • Same flower vigor Defoliation response: They bounced back as if nothing happened. That’s a sign of: • Strong root system • Adequate nutrition • Stable VPD • No lingering stress You can see it in posture. Leaves are praying. Internodes are active. No droop. ⸻ ❄️ Frost Report Resin production is accelerating. Macro evidence confirms: • Early density increase • Even coverage • No patchiness This stage (Week 3 Flower) is foundation frost. Real explosion comes mid-flower. But the signal is there. ⸻ 🌡️ Driver Temperatures & Heat Consideration Measured: • 35.5°C • 32.6°C • 28.6°C Driver heat does contribute to tent ambient load. However: Our canopy temp (27.9°C) suggests ventilation is compensating properly. Watch: • Upper canopy hotspots • Uneven temperature zones So far, no visible heat stress response. ⸻ 🌿 Room Visual Impression The room is full. Not messy full. Intentional full. Canopy is closing. Bud sites are forming evenly. Structure is defined. It looks alive. ⸻ 🌱 Nectar Drip They are on fire. • Stacking. • Frosting. • Branching aggressively. The trained one expresses structure differently, but flower quality trajectory is matching. They are going to be large plants. You can see it in internode strength and stem diameter. This is not a timid run. ⸻ 📅 Why We Call It Week 3 Flower Even though report header says Week 9 from seed: We are in: • Week 8 from seed • Week 3 of 12/12 flower cycle Flower count is based on photoperiod switch, not seed age. Clarity matters. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude Section To the OGs who’ve been here since the beginning. To the newcomers discovering the journey. To the skeptics. To the critics. To the silent watchers. To the @GrowDiaries platform it self. To the GrowDiaries community. To the sponsors. To the supporters. To the haters. If you are here, you are part of this. Gratitude doesn’t discriminate.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.
