💎 Black Diamond Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 6 | A Black Diamond Revealing Its Brilliance Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! Some plants ask for your attention. Others simply earn it. Black Diamond Auto Pheno A has quietly become one of the standout performers in the room, displaying remarkable vigor, outstanding health, and an effortless elegance that's becoming more impressive with every passing week. Growing under the exact same conditions as every other plant in this project, she's proving once again that genetics have a personality all of their own. While some phenotypes take their time settling into flower, this lady has embraced the transition with confidence, stretching beautifully while already building an impressive number of developing bud sites. For a plant grown 12/12 From Seed, and especially for an autoflower, her progress has exceeded my expectations. She's growing exactly as I hoped she would. 🌱 The 12/12 From Seed Adventure Every plant in this project has been flowered from the moment it emerged from the soil. No extended vegetative period. No additional weeks under 18 or 20 hours of light. Just twelve hours of light and twelve hours of darkness from day one. One of the reasons I love this method is because it allows every genotype to express its natural potential without artificially extending its growth. It creates an incredible opportunity to compare phenotypes while making efficient use of the growing space. Black Diamond Pheno A seems completely comfortable with the challenge. Rather than slowing down, she's thriving. 💎 A Phenotype Full of Confidence Standing at approximately 111 cm, she has become one of the tallest plants in the room and is very likely the tallest Black Diamond phenotype of the project. Her architecture is simply beautiful. Long, elegant branches rise confidently toward the light while maintaining excellent spacing between flowering sites. The central stem is thick and strong, supporting a canopy that's naturally balanced despite her impressive height. The foliage is another highlight. Rich, deep green leaves cover the entire plant, showing outstanding health and confirming that the current feeding program is providing exactly what she needs. Every leaf stands proud, acting like a perfectly tuned solar panel powering the next stage of development. She's growing with the kind of quiet confidence that makes you smile every time you open the tent. 🌸 Flowers Arriving Right on Schedule One of the biggest surprises this week has been just how quickly her flowers are developing. Considering she's an autoflower being grown under a continuous 12/12 light schedule, I honestly expected flowering to be slightly more delayed. Instead, she's right where she should be. Fresh white pistils continue emerging across every branch, while the individual flower sites are already beginning to stack into recognizable clusters. The spacing between nodes should provide excellent airflow while still allowing the flowers to merge naturally as bloom progresses. Everything about her suggests she's preparing for a very productive flowering period. 🌿 Gentle Training, Maximum Efficiency Training remains intentionally simple. Earlier Low Stress Training successfully opened her structure, and from this point forward, only occasional leaf tucking is needed to keep the canopy balanced and every developing flower site exposed. Healthy fan leaves remain exactly where I want them whenever possible. Rather than removing valuable solar panels, I prefer repositioning them to improve light penetration while preserving the plant's full photosynthetic capacity. The result is a naturally open canopy with excellent airflow and outstanding light distribution throughout the entire plant. Sometimes less truly is more. 💧 Bloom Nutrition Begins to Shine This week marks another exciting milestone as the flowering nutrition continues evolving. Current feeding includes: • Plagron Terra Bloom • Plagron Power Buds • Plagron Sugar Royal • Plagron Pure Zym • Plagron Green Sensation • pH adjustment using pH Plus and Lemon Kick This also marks the introduction of Green Sensation, one of my favourite bloom enhancers in the Plagron range. Rather than acting as a simple PK booster, Green Sensation is formulated to support flower development from multiple angles, encouraging efficient nutrient uptake, stronger flower formation, improved resin production, and overall plant vitality throughout bloom. Introducing it as the plants fully commit to flowering helps prepare them for the demanding weeks ahead, and judging by Black Diamond Pheno A's response so far, she's more than ready for the next stage. 🌡️ A Stable Environment Consistency continues to be the foundation of this grow. Current conditions remain: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • pH: 6.0 • EC: 1.78 mS/cm • Root zone temperature: 21°C • Nutrient solution temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 639 ppm When the environment stays predictable, the plants can dedicate all their energy to growth, flower production, and resin development instead of adapting to unnecessary fluctuations. It's one of the simplest principles in growing—and one of the most rewarding. 📸 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs capture exactly why this phenotype has become one of my favourites. The full-plant shots reveal a tall, elegant silhouette rising confidently above much of the canopy, while the close-ups showcase beautifully formed flower sites covered in fresh white pistils and the first visible dusting of trichomes beginning to appear on the sugar leaves. Even at this early stage, the buds are developing with impressive uniformity from the lower branches all the way to the main cola. The rich green foliage provides the perfect contrast against the bright white pistils, creating a plant that's as beautiful to photograph as she is to grow. Sometimes you can tell a plant has something special long before harvest. She feels like one of those plants. 🔮 Looking Ahead The coming weeks should be incredibly exciting. I expect the final stretch to slow naturally as more energy shifts toward flower production, allowing each bud site to begin swelling and connecting into longer, fuller colas. Green Sensation will continue supporting that transition while the flowering program gradually takes centre stage. If she continues performing like this, I believe she has every opportunity to become one of the standout plants of the entire project. The structure is exceptional. The health is exceptional. And now the flowers are beginning to catch up. 💚 Thank You Thank you for following another week of this incredible journey. Watching phenotypes reveal their own personalities is one of the greatest pleasures of growing from seed, and Black Diamond Pheno A is quickly becoming a perfect example of why every individual plant deserves its own story.

Some plants whisper those lessons... Black Diamond Pheno A is saying them loud and clear. Until next week... Growers love and Happy Growing! 🌱💚

I add twoo spoon of molasses to 10l of water. Buds are sticky and frosty and smell great..

It was a fairly busy week for this fine lady. No one likes their lady too bushy, right, 😉 so I have been cleaning up lower growth every 2-3 days as of late. I also put her in a 20 gallon pot this week and that was a bigger challenge then I anticipated 😅😅. First I had to get her untied. Then I didn’t quite get her tied down as well as I had her in the 10 gallon pot but she is still nicely laid out IMO. I may have to adjust how she is tied down in the weeks to come as these genetics can really stretch out!! Stay tuned 😎🍿🍻🌱

This week was tricky. A lot of stress for both me & the plants. They were droopy & not drinking water. I had them in too small of containers so I transplanted them thinking that was the problem. They’re in 5 gallon grass root pots now. I topped them with craft blend & diatomaceous earth, rice hills as well. They’re in Build A Soil 3.0 now. I just fed them compost tea too. They seem to be doing better besides the short one in the back left.

Finally week 2, plant is doing great. idk if it's airpot, nutrients, 20 hours of lights or genetics, but girl is growing really fast. New nutrients this week with increased amounts, but not full dose. Full dose will be given from day 10-11. Day 8 - Plant reacted great to 20 hours of light. Stem is still little bit thin for plant size, but fan breeze will help. 1L with nutrients. PH perfect G-B-M 1.2 ml/l, Root Plus 2 ml/l, Diamond Nectar 1.25 ml/l, CALiMAGic 0.4 ml/l. Day 9 - Good day, great progress. Very healthy color. 1L water under plant, 1L on sides of pot. Day 10 - Plant is growing by hours. Increased amount of nutrients and water. 2L from today. PH perfect G-B-M 2 ml/l, Root Plus 2 ml/l, Diamond Nectar 1.25 ml/l, CALiMAGic 0.4 ml/l. Day 11 - Oh man i dont know what to say about it, its growing very fast. As you can see on photos, a lot of side leaves is coming. Stem is getting strong, makes me very happy. So far so good. No water today. Day 12 - 2L with nutrients. Peace.

Gewogen wird am Ende

Von links nach rechts: Sleepy Joe, Lava Cake, Runtz. 02. Mai 2025 Die Wurzeln sind jetzt sehr gut entwickelt. Seit dem Einschalten des Lüfters haben die drei gut 20l Wasser verbraucht. 😅 Sie wachsen so unglaublich schnell, dass sie in drei Tagen fast die LED berührt haben. Dadurch leichte Verbrennungen an den Spitzen der Lava Cake. Viel höher darf die Runtz nicht werden, sonst muss ich die Spitze nach unten binden. Das Zelt ist nur 180 cm hoch. Der Lüfter des Filters läuft jetzt schneller mit 50% Leistung. Die Luftfeuchtigkeit lag heute bei 75% und musste aus dem Zelt. Das führt aber auch dazu, dass die Wärme abgesaugt wird. Wird Zeit, dass es draußen konstant wärmer wird. 03. Mai 2025 Die Lüftung habe ich über den Trenntrafo wieder eine Stufe langsamer gestellt. Aber auch vorher lag die Temperatur nachts bei 22°C, also alles im grünen Bereich. Licht: Eine der zwei Sanlight S4W strahlt exclusiv seitlich auf die Runtz. Normalerweise würde ich das nicht so machen, aber die Runtz wächst sehr luftig und hat sehr großen Abstand zwischen den Blättern. Sie sieht gesund aus und wächst gleichmäßig. Die Rückseite der Pflanze zeigt keinen Lichtmangel durch unsymetrisches Wachstum. Eine Beleuchtung von oben wäre aktuell schlechter. Ich muss schon sagen, die Runtz überrascht mich immer wieder und ich mag das zwar hohe aber sehr luftige Wachstum! Die Sleepy Joe und die Lava Cake sind vergleichbar hoch und teilen sich die zweite Sanlight S4W. Auch ihnen geht es gut, etwas größer wachsende Pflanzen sind mir aber lieber. Wasserbrauch: Bisher 30l. Heute den kleinen Tank mit 20l Wasser inkl. 64 ml Canna Aqua Flores aufgefüllt. 34 ml pro 10l bei hartem Wasser gemäß Rechner von Canna. Beim letzten Grow habe ich noch pH-down verwendet, das ist laut Canna nicht nötig und funktioniert aktuell perfekt! Canna: "Es sind pH-Stabilisatoren enthalten die ein Einstellen des pH-Werts unnötig machen." Quelle: https://www.canna-de.com/canna-aqua-flores Die Pflanzen wachsen wie beim letzten Grow kräftig und gesund, ohne Anzeichen von Mangelerscheinungen. Und sie sind nicht übertrieben dunkelgrün durch zu viel Stickstoff. 😱

Week 1 - 01/01 to 01/08 2021 HUGE THANKS TO @MARSHYDROLED and @VIPARSPECTRALED! New surge protectors/heavy duty timers/the good cords. The LSD-25 itself looks similar to my first run with a very slow growth compared to the other 3 strains i have going now. It is from the same tester kit so I am expecting a small plant overall but the new lights will definitely give me more overall bud. I have all my seedlings under the P1500 from Vipar as my veg light for the first few weeks to a month. It's SO nice to not have a blurple anymore, the light is way better in my room and on the eyes. The new diodes had every single seedling grow more in 6 hours than it did in the first 7 days under the blurp LED, EVEN the LSD-25. It had no hight to it before the Vipar went in. While the other 3 are doing better, the LSD is still going to be one of my favourites. I can't wait to smell that earthy/varnish/citrus. I noticed a bit of spotting on the Dark Devil in my other diary so I added some Hydrogen Peroxide to the spray bottle and it cleared up. All four have been getting constant spritzing from the spray bottle to keep humidity up. Have no doubt the new lights will make the plant/overall yield. Thanks for stopping in! Throw down a like and/or follow so i can return the favour 🙌 -- Check out my Diary of the Year 2020 entry 🙏 https://growdiaries.com/diaries/54258-fastbuds-original-auto-sour-diesel-grow-journal-by-glazedgrow IG: @GlazedGrow CannaBuzz: @GlazedGrow

She is much prettier than she was a week ago :) I remembered that I have my first grow light, which is more compact and it will give me more space, so I changed my light, now the girl's side branches get light too:) I add a lot of video memes, because I really want to win Iphone16 pro ;) and those who don't take risks don't drink champagne:) good luck to everyone.

D49 - Today is the first day in the seventh week of veg for #2 and the sixth for #1. It has been a week since I topped the first girl, so I went ahead and topped her for the third and final time. #2 is thriving, and I'm using LST to spread her out while keeping her flat. With the toppings now done, I can install the scrog net soon-ish. As for the thrips, I haven't noticed any additional damage, and hopefully, the mites are doing their thing. I realized, though, that I had one extra package of mites. Instead of waiting for slow release, I went full Rambo by cutting up the package and sprinkling the mites/sawdust all over the girls and soil. I also redirected the airflow to not blow directly on the plants. I'll leave the sawdust there until tomorrow and then brush it off. The slow-release bags are still on the plants, so there isn't much to lose with additional shock-and-awe tactics. DIE THRIPS!!! Finally, I started a compost tea heavy with neem meal, which should help create an inhospitable environment for the thrips. Worst case, I have neem oil, but I don't want to go down that route unless I have to. D53 - I did some additional LST to both girls and removed a few leaves and branches on the underside of #2. I also cut back the cover crop and gave each girl 2.5-liters of water @ pH 6.3. D55 - I gave both girls around 2.5-liters of compost tea @ pH 6.5. The first girl has bounced back strong after her final topping, and in a few days, it will be time to flip, but I need to do one last defoliation before that. Sorry about the porn-light pics. I was a bit late, and my lights had already gone into sunset mode.

She is doing her thing gave her a good defoliate again to open her up. She had 3 x half ml doses of pk on top of 3ml bloom over the coarse of the week. Pk dropped bloom kept at 3ml. Overall very impressed halfway through this week in the video and boom baby she’s getting there

I've added a video review about this strain, and here's the information about Beary White from mephistogenetics.com: -Beary white is a medium sized variety, she doesn't veg for too long before rapidly entering the flowering phase. She has a nice balance of resin coverage on both leaves and flowers. Flowers grow nicely compact and the quality is great. She is a lovely all-rounder in many aspects. -Effect - Strong, Happy, relaxed, but not too inda-couch. -Medicinal Benefits - Great strain for pain and stress relief.

04.08.25. Day 70 10 weeks and I think she still has about 2 more weeks left. She is a big girl. 98cm tall. I gave her a fresh reservoir change out today. She has developed some symptoms on her leaves. Maybe nutrient burn or maybe the onset of some kind of deficiency. She is looking good. I will continue to monitor and update.

Both shot up in size over the past week or two, ones at 113cm other now at 130cm, tallest has been bent over and tied down to hopefully stop the growth, coming along well now and can't wait for the next few weeks to pass, First ever grow only done LST on 1 plant let the other grow naturally but put a few ties on it this week to get more light exposure as it seems way behind the other and there is only actually about 2 days in them, what are peoples thoughts on how its looking? Thanks

Eran 3 esquejes cherrywanna , solo pesé el nro 2, me limé pero esa fue un intermedio entre las otras: La cw 1 tenia cogos grandes y largos, el mas grande humedo pesaba 33g. La cherrywanna 3 era la del fondo, tenia mas bien pompones superiores gorditos y no mucho mas para abajo. La realidad es que puse muchas plantas para la potencia de luz q tengo, pero igual salieron muyy bien:)

10/26: All but one are flowering now, and most are stretching. There are a few shorter ones, thankfully, so they'll get moved up to the top of the closet in another day or two and I'll have a little more room for the big girls to spread out a little bit. 10/27: I rearranged the garden a little bit today and checked whether they needed water or not. I foliar fed with Big Bloom and a little Tiger Bloom today. I'm seeing signs of potassium deficiency on several of them. 10/28: I watered everybody with about 1/4 gallon and included a little terpinator, cal-mag, bembe, and beastie bloomz. I uploaded a couple of photos showing some weird curling of the newest growth...just an odd varietal trait I think because I've seen it before on my Candy Cane F2's. 10/29: I rotated everybody on the edges and plucked some older, lower leaves. They are damn near totally dry, so flushing tomorrow. 10/30: I decided not to flush based partly on how shitty the weather is right now...and partly because I'm seeing some N deficiency signs in several plants and really can't afford to put off feeding them again until they dry after a 3-gallon flush. So, instead, I thoroughly watered everybody with about 3/4 gallon including cal-mag, myco/tricho, beneficial bacteria, humic acid, bembe, and terpinator. I let them sit in their catchment trays long enough to soak all the run-off back up, so they are fairly well saturated now with things that should make the roots really happy. I've added another oscillating fan and got the hygrostat set to kick on the exhaust whenever the humidity reaches 55%, so it's pretty much staying on right now. Hopefully they are dried back out by Friday so I can give them a last good dose of N to help with their stretch. I'll also start going heavy with P and K, and increase terpenoid and flavonoid enhancers. I'm gonna give Signal by True a try when I finish my current bottle of Terpinator. I just can't bring myself to keep paying over $60/gallon when I can get a gallon of Signal for under $40. While watering today, I emptied the closet completely and had plants all over the place...my cats were in heaven..stalking each other under the jungle canopy.😺 It really does amaze me that I'm fitting all these plants into such a small space..😳 10/31: I rotated the edge plants and checked their moisture level. I'll feed them tomorrow. 11/1: I took everybody out of the closet and did a little defoliating. I fed everybody with about a half-gallon including all the good stuff.

nice strain with a rich terpene profile! sweet, gelato like, hard hitting smoke! sadly my phenos had no banana taste but still very nice
