Harvested #2, #3, and #6 at day 75 Plants #7, #8 and #11 are still flowering Plants 5 and 9 are just about drying. I was able to try some of 9 yesterday which had nice pleasant effects but I do believe it'll need some time to cure though. I heard sour and skunky strains have phenols or something that evaporate with a cure so I tried tasting her early on. Still green but that could be because she's still drying pretty

So week 4 of flower is in the books and things are going well. Noticing a cal/mag issue in the jehovas witness but not the others. Growth has been strong and the fatality has taken over she has outgrown my five foot tent so am moving everything to a brand new 5x5 that’s 8 feet tall so I’m hoping I can spread them out some and allow light to reach the middle canopy because I have lollipopped all the lower larfy bullshit. Looking forward to a strong finish.

Week 7! Blue Dream'in is what I am doing! I'm loving this strain and round 2 of this grow in particular. She's got amazing smell, starts with a pine then fades into a berry/fruity smell. She has shown signs of heat stress and a bit of extra feeding was provided last week. Of all 4, she's the one I'm most excited about! July 31 - added some close ups.

Hello Bros&Sis! Ciao!😊 this time I've decided to made a video update, from the start of the week to the finish, we're gonna see some BIG differences! (The longest is from the end) About the ladies: Girls in coco Royal AK- she's drinking every single drop op solution and has literally exploded! I'm really happy about her training (top/lst/hst). A very strong strain. OG Kush- I don't get this girl, she's definitely not an heavy drinker. Speedy Chile FF- when I re-potted her into 6lt pot, some of my Bros hoped for a Baobab, what do you think?πŸ˜‚ (has some mutations, has a growth of 3 leaves and then 2 branches have joined together and the other has grown normally) Ladies in Soil: UK Cheese auto- I've broke a branch due to heavy crop. Lesson learned. Pink Doc CBD auto- she's growing good, finally! The only thing I'm worried about is that she will not grow so much, because switch is near. Candy Kush Express- A really nice lady, not too tall, good side branches and she take everything with no care less (one of the most "broken" in the tent) Special Kush#1- She likes her new pot, but there's something wrong (see leaves) maybe related to VPD or RU? I've used different techniques on this ladies, but the one I like the most is cropping the branches and the main stems and also broke the branches where meets the stems, to give'em more power, and more "space" for nutrients transports in sight of bloom! That's all mate, we will see soon for the next update! Ciao!πŸ˜™ (hey @Growdiaries if you want to use my video, feel free to do it, but please, don't change the music, it's already on YT and for CC use)

Hello again, dear growers! πŸŒ±πŸ‘‹ We’ve officially stepped into Week 10 of this wild and fragrant journey! Last week ended with a little makeover for the girlsβ€”I defoliated about 30-40% of the leaves again. βœ‚οΈ The Gorilla decided to keep me on my toes by showing some nutrient deficiencies on her leavesβ€”guess she didn’t get enough food after the flush. 🍌🌿 (Lesson learned: don’t keep a Gorilla hungry!) Now, let’s talk about Runtz! 😍 She’s an absolute queenβ€”so photogenic that even my struggling phone can’t capture her real beauty. πŸ“Έβœ¨ She’s forming into one giant, luscious bud, and her fragrance is something else entirely! πŸ•΅οΈβ€β™‚οΈ The carbon filter is fighting the good fight, but if the room isn’t aired out every 8-9 hours, a little aroma starts sneaking through. But opening the tent… oh, my friends, that’s where the magic happens! πŸŒ¬οΈπŸ’« The aroma is intoxicatingβ€”imagine diving headfirst into a field of flowers while bees whisper secrets in your ears. 🌺🐝 I just sit there, enchanted, savoring the smell, and staring at these beauties like a hypnotized gardener. Honestly, it’s hard to walk away. πŸ˜‚ Here’s their menu for the week: 🍡 Feed: A+B 4ml/L, Micro Chum 1ml/L, Big Bud 2ml/L πŸ“Š PPM: 1050 | pH: 5.8 πŸ’§ Runoff: PPM 1000 | pH 6.0-6.3 Now, for the not-so-great news… I’m struggling with humidity levelsβ€”daytime sits around 65-77%, and at night, it can climb to a stubborn 80%. 🌫️ Temperature-wise, it’s 23-25Β°C during the day and drops to a cool 16-18Β°C at night. ❄️πŸ”₯ Despite the challenges, the endgame is near, and I’m savoring every moment of this grow! 🌟 πŸ™Œ Happy growing, everyone! 🌱πŸ”₯

πŸ‘ 8Γ—8 Adventure – Week 15 🌿 Passion Fruitz by Zamnesia πŸ’šπŸŒΈ πŸ˜‚ THE SLOW GIRL FINALLY GOT THE MEMO! β€” FROM THE 8Γ—8 JUNGLE TO HARVEST MODE! πŸ‘βœ‚οΈ Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8Γ—8 Adventure! πŸŒ±πŸ’š MY FRIENDS... I'M LAUGHING. I'M SMILING. AND YES... WE'RE DIVIDING THE REPORTS AGAIN! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ At this point, I think you all know the drill. When Dog Doctor starts taking photographs, the camera roll gets out of control, the reports get longer, and suddenly one update becomes two! But this time, we have a little twist in the Passion Fruitz story. Because our beautiful, stubborn, ridiculously patient solo survivor finally decided to finish her journey. And how did she do it? Well... Apparently, all she needed was a change of accommodation! πŸ˜‚πŸ‘πŸ  Remember this girl? The slow one. The girl who seemed to be operating on her own calendar. The girl who kept producing beautiful white pistils while the rest of the 8Γ—8 room was moving further along. The girl who made us wonder whether she was measuring time in weeks, months, or some mysterious Passion Fruitz unit that the rest of us simply don't understand. πŸ˜‚β³πŸŒΈ YES! THAT GIRL! After waiting patiently for her to reach the stage we were looking for, we moved her into the smaller tent with a little ViparSpectra LED. And apparently... SHE GOT THE MEMO! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ‘ In less than a week, she finished her journey. I couldn't make this stuff up! After all those weeks of taking her sweet time, suddenly she decided that it was time to get things moving. So, although this is our next report in the diary sequence, we're keeping it within the same overall reporting week as we document this transition. We have the final growing moments, the change of environment, and the beginning of the harvest chapter. The harvest and trimming process will have its own report next, because, of course, we have another mountain of photographs to share! πŸ˜‚πŸ“Έβœ‚οΈ For now, let's give our beautiful Passion Fruitz the spotlight. Because despite all the jokes about her taking forever, this girl has been a lush, beautiful plant throughout her journey. And when she finally decided to finish? She gave us another chapter worth documenting. πŸ‘πŸŒΈπŸ’š ──────────────────────── 🐒 A QUICK RECAP β€” THE GIRL WHO REFUSED TO RUSH For anyone joining this diary for the first time, let's quickly rewind. Passion Fruitz by Zamnesia has been our solo survivor in the 8Γ—8 Adventure. While twelve individual plants and phenotypes shared the wider project, Passion Fruitz was following her own story as the lone representative of her genetics in this diary. And from early on, one thing became very clear. THIS GIRL WAS NOT IN A HURRY! πŸ˜‚πŸ‘β³ We watched her develop through the earlier stages. We documented her lush foliage, her beautiful structure, and her steady growth. Then flowering came along, and she began developing those lovely flower sites covered in fresh white pistils. But while the other girls were progressing toward more advanced stages of flowering, Passion Fruitz continued at her own pace. Week after week, we kept documenting her. She was beautiful. She was growing. She was developing. But she was taking her sweet time. And I mean... HER SWEET TIME! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Even compared with the Blueberry Muffins and other phenotypes that had been moving at a more relaxed pace, Passion Fruitz was noticeably behind in visible floral development. But we kept observing her rather than forcing her into somebody else's timeline. That is an important part of this project. The 8Γ—8 Adventure is about documenting individual plants and their differences, not pretending every phenotype follows the same schedule. And Passion Fruitz gave us a very clear example of that. She was lush. She was beautiful. She kept building. And she made us practise patience. A LOT OF PATIENCE! πŸ˜‚πŸŒΏπŸ’š ──────────────────────── 🌿 A LUSH PLANT FROM BEGINNING TO END Before we talk about her final chapter, I want to appreciate the plant herself. Because Passion Fruitz wasn't simply the girl who took longer than expected. She was a beautiful plant to grow and document. Her foliage gave her a lush appearance, her structure developed over time, and her flowers became increasingly interesting as the weeks passed. Those developing flower sites, the contrast between the foliage and the pistils, and her overall shape gave us plenty of photographs worth keeping. And that's something I don't want to lose behind the running joke about her pace. Yes, she was slow. Yes, we teased her. Yes, there were weeks when it felt like she was determined to keep us waiting forever. πŸ˜‚πŸ‘ But she was also a beautiful plant. We followed her progression rather than judging her by one photograph or one particular week. And now that we can look back at the complete journey, we can appreciate both things at once. She took her time. And she grew beautifully. Those two things aren't mutually exclusive. Sometimes a plant simply gives us a different timeline from the one we expected. And Passion Fruitz has certainly made sure we won't forget hers! πŸŒΈπŸ’šπŸ‘ ──────────────────────── 🏠 THE BIG MOVE β€” SMALLER TENT, DIFFERENT LIGHT Now, here's where the story takes an interesting turn. After spending so much time waiting for Passion Fruitz to reach the stage we wanted to see, we moved her into a smaller tent with a ViparSpectra LED. A change of scenery for our solo survivor! πŸ˜‚πŸ πŸŒΏ She was no longer in the same immediate lighting environment as the plants remaining in the 8Γ—8 room. Instead, she was moved into that smaller space, where she continued the final part of her journey under the ViparSpectra light. And then... LESS THAN A WEEK LATER... SHE WAS READY! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ‘ I can't help laughing at the timing. For weeks, we'd been watching her develop and wondering how long she was going to keep going. Then we changed her environment, and within less than a week, she had reached the finish line. Now, let's be careful about how we interpret that. The timing is interesting, and it's absolutely worth documenting. But we can't conclude from one plant and one change that the smaller tent or the ViparSpectra LED alone caused her to finish. She was already well into her flowering journey, and several factors can influence how a plant progresses. What we can say is that we moved her, she continued developing, and she reached the stage we were waiting for in less than a week. That's what happened. And it's a fascinating final chapter for a plant that had already given us such an unusual timeline. The slow girl finally crossed the finish line. And she did it in her own way. πŸ‘πŸ’‘πŸŒΈ ──────────────────────── πŸ˜‚ PASSION FRUITZ, WE NEED TO TALK! Girl... Seriously?! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ All those weeks. All those updates. All those photographs of beautiful white pistils. All those moments when we looked at the rest of the room and wondered what was going on with you. And then you move into the smaller tent, get a little ViparSpectra sunshine, and suddenly you're ready to finish? WHAT WAS THAT?! πŸ˜‚πŸ‘πŸ’‘ I'm joking, of course. But I love moments like this because they make the diary memorable. We can plan. We can observe. We can document our expectations. And then the plants do something that reminds us not to become too attached to our predictions. Passion Fruitz has been teaching us patience from the beginning. And right at the end, she gave us a little surprise. After such a long wait, the final transition happened quickly. One more reminder that each plant has its own timeline, and the next chapter doesn't always arrive when we expect it. She's been a beautiful girl throughout the journey. And now she's given us a finish that fits her personality perfectly. Unexpected. A little funny. And absolutely worth documenting. πŸ˜‚πŸŒΈπŸ’š ──────────────────────── 🌸 FROM FRESH WHITE PISTILS TO THE FINAL CHAPTER If you've been following the previous updates, you'll remember how much we talked about those white pistils. They were one of the most noticeable features of her later flowering reports. While several other phenotypes were visibly further along, Passion Fruitz continued to show fresh pistils and developing flower structures. That was the main reason we kept describing her as the slow girl of the room. We weren't trying to criticise her. We were documenting what we could see. And now, after moving her into the smaller tent, we reached the point where her growing chapter came to an end. It's satisfying to look back at that progression. The early plant. The lush growth. The developing flowers. The long wait. The change of environment. And finally, the harvest. This is exactly why I enjoy keeping the individual diaries. When we document the entire journey, the final result becomes more meaningful because we can see the story that came before it. Passion Fruitz didn't simply appear one day as a finished plant. We watched her get there. And now it's time to document what comes next. πŸ‘πŸŒΏπŸ“Έ ──────────────────────── πŸ“Έ TOO MANY PHOTOGRAPHS... AGAIN! My friends, I'm going to apologise in advance. πŸ˜‚πŸ’š YES, WE'RE SPLITTING THE REPORTS AGAIN! But this time, it's not just because I took too many beautiful photographs. It's also because we're documenting two connected but distinct parts of her journey. This update covers the transition into the final stage, the change of tent and lighting, and the story of how our slow girl finally reached harvest. The next report will focus on the harvest and trimming process. We'll give those photographs their own space, and we'll be able to walk through that part of the journey without rushing past the details. I want to show you what happened, not simply jump from a growing plant to a finished result. The harvest is an important milestone. The trimming process is another part of the story. And the photographs help preserve the details along the way. So please bear with me, my friends. I know we've been here before! πŸ˜‚πŸ“Έβœ‚οΈ But when a plant gives us a journey like Passion Fruitz, I want to document it properly. ──────────────────────── πŸ”¬ THE 8Γ—8 ADVENTURE β€” SAME PROJECT, INDIVIDUAL JOURNEYS For anyone discovering the project through Passion Fruitz, here's the bigger picture. The 8Γ—8 Adventure follows twelve individual plants and phenotypes in a shared growing project. The plants were grown under the same general environmental strategy, with a shared lighting ecosystem, irrigation approach, and nutritional programme during their time in the main room. But the plants did not all develop at the same pace. Some progressed quickly. Some took longer. Some developed different structures. And Passion Fruitz became one of our clearest examples of a plant following a notably slower timeline. Her move into the smaller tent was a later part of her individual journey, so her final days weren't spent under exactly the same immediate conditions as the plants remaining in the 8Γ—8. That distinction matters. We can compare her earlier development with the other plants that shared the room, and we can document what happened after she moved. But we shouldn't pretend every stage happened under identical conditions. The project is about honest observation. And Passion Fruitz has given us a very interesting timeline to preserve. Twelve plants. Twelve individual stories. And one slow girl who decided to finish just when we were starting to think she'd never stop! πŸ˜‚πŸ‘πŸŒ± ──────────────────────── πŸ’‘ A QUICK SHOUTOUT TO THE LIGHTING CREW During her time in the main room, Passion Fruitz was part of the 8Γ—8 Adventure lighting setup, with Future of Grow Black Series LEDs providing the main lighting. The wider project also included the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures supplied for testing. For the final part of Passion Fruitz's journey, however, we moved her into a smaller tent with a ViparSpectra LED. That's an important detail in her timeline. The smaller tent and the ViparSpectra light were part of her final environment, and she reached harvest less than a week after the move. We're documenting that sequence because it's part of what happened, not because we're claiming that one particular light or tent automatically makes a plant finish faster. One plant's experience doesn't establish a universal rule. But it certainly gives us something interesting to remember when we look back at her diary! A big thank you to Future of Grow for supporting the lighting side of the 8Γ—8 Adventure and supplying the additional Black Series fixtures for the project. And a nod to ViparSpectra for the light that was part of Passion Fruitz's final chapter. πŸ’‘πŸŒ±πŸ’š ──────────────────────── 🌿 NUTRITION & ENVIRONMENT β€” KEEPING THE RECORD HONEST Throughout her time in the main room, Passion Fruitz was part of the shared environmental and nutritional approach documented in the earlier reports. Those previous updates included the room's general temperature, humidity, lighting, and nutrient references. But after moving her into the smaller tent, we shouldn't automatically carry every main-room reading over as though nothing had changed. The immediate environment was different, and we don't have a complete new set of measurements in this update. So rather than invent new readings or imply that all conditions remained identical, we'll keep the record focused on what we know. Passion Fruitz was a lush, beautiful plant throughout her journey. She took longer than the other girls to reach the stage we were waiting for. We moved her into a smaller tent under a ViparSpectra LED. And in less than a week, she reached harvest. Those are the key points of this chapter. Honest documentation means recording what happened without filling in missing details with guesses. And that's how I want to keep this diary. πŸ’šπŸŒ±πŸ”¬ ──────────────────────── πŸ‘ FINAL THOUGHTS β€” THE SLOW GIRL FINALLY CROSSED THE LINE! Well, my friends... What a journey! πŸ˜‚πŸ‘πŸ‘‘ Passion Fruitz has been one of the most memorable girls in the 8Γ—8 Adventure, simply because she made us wait for so long. She was lush. She was beautiful. She developed her flowers at her own pace. She kept showing us those lovely white pistils while other plants progressed further. And we kept following her, week after week, documenting what we saw. Then came the move into the smaller tent. A little ViparSpectra LED. A change of environment. And less than a week later... HARVEST! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸŒΈ I'm still smiling about that. Of course, we won't pretend that one change explains everything. Her development was already well underway, and we can't establish the exact cause of the timing from this single experience. But as part of her individual story, it's a brilliant moment. The plant that seemed to have all the time in the world suddenly reached the finish line. And now we're ready to document the next stage. The harvest and trimming report is coming next, where we'll give the process and the photographs the space they deserve. For now, let's appreciate Passion Fruitz for what she's been throughout this journey. A lush plant. A beautiful plant. A patient plant. And a very memorable solo survivor. πŸ‘πŸŒΏπŸ’š Thank you, girl, for keeping us guessing. Thank you for giving us such a beautiful plant to document. And thank you for finally deciding that the story needed a new chapter! πŸ˜‚πŸ‘‘ ──────────────────────── πŸ’¬ COME JOIN THE DOG DOCTOR COMMUNITY!

Passion Fruitz has been a beautiful girl from beginning to end. She took her time. She made us wait. She kept us guessing. And then she finished in less than a week after moving into the smaller tent! πŸ˜‚πŸ‘πŸ’‘ Her growing chapter is complete. But her story isn't finished. The harvest and trimming report is coming next. Until then... Growers Love & Happy Growing! πŸŒ±πŸ’šπŸ‘ Take care, everyone. And Passion Fruitz...

One of the shorties of the bunch, I have to say Northern Lights is my favorite smelling strain (or at least the flower I just finished). I'm hoping she'll smell the same.

Beginning of week: Can't tell yet if the branch i broke is going to mend or die yet. Light defoliation today focusing on the upper canopy and tapering to the bottom to allow the lower branches to catch up as much as possible. Midweek: going away for 3 days. Put my net down to help breakup the canopy more though it wasnt really needed this thing loves to grow sideways. Added Cycos suga rush at 1ml/L and a light defoliation. The branch i thought I broke hasnt shown any signs of dying and has continued growing 😁 I also have started watering with worm casting tea in between feeds.

Final product is been absolutely amazing on these clones - the jungle came out about average but the clones definitely exceeded expectations there absolute fire in comparison but still just as good hopefully I can just improve a few issues we had on this run and dial right in 100% will be so much better, next few run is going to be special I’ve got a few things lined up. From tester packs to breeders packs I can hunt from. So lots to choose from but what to keep to run will be interesting

8/30 Rained yesterday and pretty much all night. Plants looked happy this morning. I'm thinking about feeding today or tomorrow. The late flowering special kush doesn't have much longer and it will be done. I'm going to need to do another treatment for the thrips. Nights are so cold that I think they aren't a major problem. No signs of septoria either. No signs of ANY molds or mildew. Even where I took the pillar out but I removed a lot. I am noticing (especially on the pink kush and the special kush in the back) the wierd "top hat" lower buds like I previously did. I don't think it's the chipmunk. It's like they eat fresh buds and leave the top there. I think it might be earwigs but I haven't seen ANY. Birds have been keeping my garden pretty clean. Almost everytime I walk down there it's like a flock of birds takes off lol. I was watching the little finches all perched on my cage. I've seen them dart in and grab a snack. It's pretty cool how it works. Symbiotic relationship. I feed the birds amd they help keep my garden pest free. EDIT: Went to check the girls around 430. It seems like everytime I see the flowers they've swelled in size. Especially the natural mk ultra. Everything is really coming together. Pink kush is behind but it's starting. I'm getting lots of fall colors but I'm losing lots of leaves too. I wouldn't have defoliated as good as I have if I hadn't had problems. I thought the plants were done getting taller or stretching but after this rain they ALL seem taller. The buds are swelling as well. I'm on the home stretch with the early special kush. Few more weeks. Everything looked amazing tonight. I wanted to take some pictures but I left my phone. Smell is greatly increasing. 8/31 I don't get how we got NO rain the ENTIRE summer but it's rained the past few nights? Maines bipolar weather I guess. I see the same shit as prior years. Something crawls up and eats small shoots and developing buds but leaves larger ones alone. I thought it was earwigs before. I'm not sure now. I'll have to go look at night and figure out what's eating shit. It's just small secondary shoots mostly. Stuff I should've pruned but I leave on so the won't eat my fucking colas. I got some work to do but I'm getting closer. 9/1 Well we made it to September. Pink kush is finally STARTING to form little buds. After some research (and watching those fucking locusts try to fly into my cage but can't because they are to fucking big. I was lucky I found that enormous one on the stalk of the furthest special kush right where the tip cola starts. Luckily I was able to get him. Didn't have to take pics or a video or even check if they need water. It rained a little last night and the buds were a little wet. I'm planning to feed when I get back. If they need water I'll give it to them. My early special kush is getting real close. I want to harvest at peak timing but sometimes exigent circumstances screw that up. However i think I'll be able to let this girl finish properly. EDIT: Went back over to check weights and everything was super heavy. Plants are all turning fall colors. I checked the trichs on my special kush, mk ultra and 10th planet. Everything looked great in the sun! Everything is swelling and getting frostier everyday. I'm hoping that the pink kushs will finish. My early special kush LOOKS like it should be done but it's not. Looking at the trichs and stigmas it needs more time. I've found on several plants that between the; giant caterpillars, earwigs and pillars that they can take a whole branch and pretty much decimate it in a night. I chased one of those giant locusts around my Cafe and it finally got out. Bastard was almost the size of a small bird! I should feed tonight and possibly do a treatment for pests. 9/2 Had to shake to plants off again. Bags are still heavy. I'll probably feed tonight. I'm noticing tons of damage on lower and interior branches. The grasshoppers or locusts or whatever they are can strip a whole branch! They can even bite through little stems. I'll never grow outside without floating row covers again. The special kush is getting really close. Sometime this week I'll look for a mature tester bud. Both MK ULTRAS are exploding in flower and getting frostier daily. 9/3 We are going to be getting some rain. I noticed the grasshoppers or whatever really like the special kush. After seeing her in the sun I made the executive decision (after one more peak at the trics) and decided to chop her. I feel like that was a good decision. Even more so as I got going. I bet if I let it ride I would've ended up with half as much. The fan leaves had all dropped. I wish I would've kept a clone of this pheno. Smells amazing! I did a quick wet trim with branches and cut little buds (which there weren't many) went in a paper bag the rest was hung to dry. Minus the top cola and a bud or two I brought home to look at and manicure. The roots were really dry. The others seen heavy but I haven't watered in a while. I'm planning on watering and feeding tomorrow. Things are really exploding and conibgvti life! I feel so much better having that plant inside. 9/4 I was definitely right to take that plant. It just SEEMED to early. Went over today and found more damage from those grasshoppers or locusts, whatever the fuck they are. I used to just hear that noise at night but now it's morning noon and night. Some can't hear it but it's this high pitched buzzing (them rubbing their legs together) which wad heard occasionally with crickets at night. This hear it's a CONSTANT sound. Considering I'm in late flower I'm not sure what to do. I don't think there's much u can do. At least it seems like they prefer the special kush and target that. So at least that huge mk ultra and the natural one and the 10th planet's should be fine. Pink kush is finally flowering. Whether they'll have any nodes left by the time they finish is an unknown. WATERED TODAY. EVERYTHING GOT A GALLON BUT THE 10S. EVERYBODY GOT A QUART OF FOOD. IM CONSIDERING UPING KOOL BLOOM. Didn't take pictures or do a video. I will later. I'll review the special kush I took when I take the others. I'll be back over later and I'll update. No rain as of 2pm. I watered because I took the rootball apart of the special kush I harvested and it was dry as a popcorn fart! I lifted a couple and they were light bit I didn't lift everything. The water sat on the top for quite before it would drain. At least they had a good dry cycle. That plant I took looks and smells amazing. I can't wait to try it. 9/5 Thunder showers today. Started raining early while I was checking the girls out. I had coffee and waited until it stopped and shook them all off. EVERYTHING is exploding in growth. Pink Kush is still quite a bit behind but everything else has swollen significantly. It's going to rain tomorrow too which I'm sure the plants will like. I SHOULD go stake individual branches or at the very least add some more supports. Still losing some stuff to critters but whatever. It's nature's claim. That plant I took looks awesome. My intuition was spot on. Can't wait to try it. EDIT: WENT BACK OVER AND SHOOK OFF BRANCHES AND ADDED SOME SUPPORTS. I DEFOLIATED A SHIT TON OF LEAVES. FLOWERS ARE GETTING BIGGER EVERY DAY. I FOUND SOMETHINGVTHAT LOOKED LIKE "STEM ROT" ON THE BRANCH OF SPECIAL KUSH THAT GOT STRIPPED. I LOOKED UP WHAT TO DO BUT FORGOT TO MENTION IT WAS SPRINKLING AND I CUT THE BRANCH OFF. THIS WAS (OR WOULD HAVE BEEN) A LARGE BRANCH AND IT WAS ALL GONE. IM HIPING IT DOESNT EFFECT THE PLANT. ITS ANOTHER SPECIAL KUSH AND ITS THE ONE WITH PINK CALYXS. I'M TRIMM8NG THE SPECIAL KUSH I TOOK DOWN. I GOT TO TRY IT TODAY. IT TURNED OUT AMAZING! COVERED IN TRICHS, SMELLS GREAT BUT TASTES BETTER! GIVES ME THAT FAMILIAR INDICA HIGH WE ALL KNOW AND LOVE. I DONT KNOW WHAT IT IS BUT IT SEEMS THAT CANNABIS GROWN WITH YOUR OWN HANDS FOR YOUR OWN NEEFS SEEMS TO WORK BETTER FOR ME THAN DISPENSARY PIT I KNOW IS BETTER. IM SITTING HERE WITH A SMILE ON MY FACE. SINKONG INTO THE COUCH. I CAN TELL THERES OTHER CANNIBINOIDS AT WORK TOO. I LOVE THE ENTOURAGE EFFECT!

These things are growing out of control! They’re getting so close to the lights it’s insane. I’ve had to drop the lower slightly to prevent burning. These things are just so robust. They are extremely stable genetics and can handle most anything I’ve thrown at it intentionally or not. They just have a really remarkable vigor. Easily they’re nearly double the size since I started flowing exactly 14 days ago. I see calyx’s but no noticeable flowers (or balls) thus far. Should be any day now they finish the stretch and start to pack on the bulk. Some EC issues but nothing really too crazy or anything. They’re drinking a lot. Easily a gallon per day each. Really I’ve had no problems. Highly recommend growing these if you can
