? Black Diamond – Plant B Week 3 | Vegetation 8×8 Adventure – 12/12 From Seed Another exciting week in the 8×8 Adventure! Every plant in this project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed technique, allowing each phenotype to express its natural structure while remaining compact and efficient. Plant B of Black Diamond is beginning to reveal its own personality, showing strong apical dominance, excellent vigor, and beautiful structural symmetry. The goal of this project continues to be documenting every phenotype individually, following its complete journey from seed to harvest while using the Plagron nutrient line throughout the entire grow. ⸻ 🌱 Grow Conditions • Week: 3 (Vegetation) • Height: 17 cm • Light Schedule: 12/12 • Day Temperature: 27°C • Night Temperature: 25°C • Relative Humidity: 55% • CO₂: 666 ppm • pH: 6.0 • EC: 1.3 • Solution Temperature: 20°C • Root Zone Temperature: 21°C • Pot Size: 15 L • Daily Water: 1 L Feeding * Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L * Power Roots – 1 ml/L * Pure Zym – 1 ml/L * Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L * pH Plus / Lemon Kick as required ⸻ 🌿 Weekly Development Plant B continues to impress with its vigorous and balanced development. During this third week, vertical growth accelerated while maintaining short internodal spacing, creating a compact but well-structured plant that looks perfectly suited for the 12/12 method. The main stem has thickened noticeably and is already showing excellent strength. Side branches are emerging evenly from every node, indicating that this phenotype should build a very uniform flowering structure over the coming weeks. The newest growth is vibrant lime green, gradually darkening as the leaves mature, while the larger fan leaves remain a rich healthy green with no visible signs of nutrient stress or deficiencies. ⸻ 👀 Structural Observations One characteristic that immediately stands out on Plant B is its strong central leader. Unlike some phenotypes that naturally spread laterally early on, this individual seems determined to build a dominant main cola while simultaneously producing vigorous secondary branches. Node spacing remains pleasantly tight, giving the plant a compact architecture without becoming overcrowded. As more side shoots develop, the canopy is beginning to fill naturally while maintaining excellent airflow through the interior. Stem diameter has increased considerably compared to last week, suggesting the root system is becoming well established inside the 15-liter container. ⸻ 🍃 Plant Health Health this week has been excellent. The leaves remain flat, fully expanded and symmetrical, with strong petioles supporting each fan leaf. New shoots are developing quickly from every node and there are no signs of nutrient burn, deficiencies or environmental stress. The feeding schedule appears to be matching the plant’s demand very well, supporting vigorous growth while keeping the foliage clean and healthy. ⸻ 📸 Photo Notes This week’s photographs clearly highlight the symmetrical canopy developing from above, while the side profile showcases the increasing stem thickness and vigorous branching beginning at every internode. Close-up images of the growth tip reveal rapid vegetative expansion and healthy leaf formation, confirming that Plant B is transitioning smoothly toward the next stage of development. ⸻ 🔜 Looking Ahead With the root system now well established and the structural framework taking shape, the coming week should bring a noticeable increase in both vertical growth and lateral branch development. As flowering approaches under the continuous 12/12 schedule, it will be fascinating to see how Black Diamond Plant B balances stretch with bud site formation. Based on its current architecture, this phenotype has the potential to produce a well-organized canopy with multiple productive flowering sites. Growers Love and see you all ext week 🙏

D7: Bleaching of top flowers closest to lamps. Probably going to reduce power from 180 to 120W for next week so she can relax a bit

I don't see flower yet.

этот сорт супер,он выдерживает все жару, холод, lst ,hst ,super cropping я делал все что мог,вывод такой что не трогайте авто сорта,пусть растут себе )))) 314 г но ребята он без воды стоял больше суток в гидропонике в темноте,так что он за сутки немного подсох,так что я не могу сказать что было вчера на весах когда я я отключил гидропонику и оставил на сутки в темноте без воды, на фотке видно что листья уже упали,так что было больше! будем ждать когда высохнут 😉 ну вот ребята что вышло )) 62 сухих, вкус и запах соответствуют описанию,я не могу в точности передать вкус,но очень вкусный! это растение получило очень много стрессов,я всем советую!!!!

Esta semana la dejamos más tranquila a la Jack solo le hicimos un trasplante a 5 litros quedo bien , la dejamos recuperar unos días y después le hacemos las últimas podas y ya va a estar lista para florecer

🍨🍧🍬

Week 4 down in the books! The girls should be finishing their stretch. Bud sites are getting more stout! I raised my newts 8ml. I'm hoping the girls don't start to burn. Hope everybody's grows are doing well. Cheers! -G.I.JOSE

update later

🤗 Hi fellow growers. We are back here to harvest the Northern Lights Auto from Seedsman. She took 11 weeks to finish flower and a total of 15 weeks from seed to harvest. 🌱Growing her was a little tricky as she was finicky at the beginning of flower. She wasn't the fastest auto but she put on some tall colas with some fair amount of resin smelling of sour stone fruit such as a plum. Chopped her down then dryed for 14 days in a environment controlled room. Then began the trimming process. After a nice manicure the plum smelling buds were then placed in a jar to set cure for 30 days. There was quite a bit of larf nugs on the bottom skirts that I should have trimmed off during the flowering cycle but sometimes I like keeping them to press into some rosin before my nugs are cured. I find that pressing the flowers with in the first week of the curing process produces the best quality flower rosin In the end I'm left with a gram and a half of some beautiful Northern Lights flower rosin that tastes and smells like a sour plum and packs a big punch. About a 10% return so not the greatest yield but it sure is some high quality rosin. Keep it mind it was the larf flower and I press at 180°F to preserve as much flavor as I can. I'm after quality and have been achieving that. Effects - Relaxing, calming, Happy Yield - 68 g nice nuggets 14 g of larf that went to rosin Smell - Sour plum Forrest Taste - Skunky plums

Another week closer... Everything is moving along, From that one day of missing feeding last week when we set the clocks back it messed with one of my girls, but not much I can do about it.. I have about 20 days to go, so no matter what it will not change anything now., ..just have to live with it.. Besides that looking good. until next week, smoke a fatty, help out your fellow grower.

In the end, it's still a nice phenotype, but not at all frosty. Very dense buds with a slightly lemony scent.

Die Pandora ist allmählich am Ende ihres Blütezyklus angekommen und hat sich wunderbar entwickelt. Für die etwas lichtarmere Umgebung kann sich ihr Blütenverhältnis im Gegensatz zu anderen Autos an diesem Platz durchaus sehen lassen. Da momentan das Wetter wieder besser ist, bekommt sie auf ihre letzten Tage hin nochmal viel Sonne zum Ausreifen.

I filled the tanks with sparkling water to have a slow release of co2

Day 35: The weeks seem to be flashing past now we have some buds to admire. Wedding Cake is storming the field in this tank and without doubt the leader of the pack. She feeds really well and shows no sign of slowing down at all. she is beginning to give of a really nice biscuit smell up close and touched and her sticky buds are certainly pushing oils out. She has a good deal of space to keep growing out and up into so heres to a 5-tier wedding cake at harvest. Black Ghost O.G is certainly a tryer and is putting some very frosty trichs and pistils out now to make up for her lack of size. I dont think it is an impressive grower but i dont doubt the hit that she will give from the building up of these trichs . Gorilla Glue#4 is being a typical GG#4 I am happy to say. she is falling under her oily buds weight on her skinny limbs and need a pinochio conversion to keep her upright so i got bits with the yo-yo's to keep her up. She smells so nice when touched but is so sticky she doesnt want to let go !. Now that her roots are not submerged entirely , her leaf colour has come back to a beautiful green again. She has a fairly decent size but I think quality over quantity will be a mantra I use for her yield. . Have a fun week until next time . keep it green and mean.

LST again & again. My Gagarin Auto gives powerfull branches on both sides. Seems like it wants to start flowering. That's pretty early)

Cantaloupe haze needed a good flush brought runoff from 2000 ppm to 1100ppm will continue to monitor.

Being lazy this grow yano the score too high
