Vegetationswoche 8 - Tag 49 - 56 Diese Woche lief alles ziemlich entspannt. Einmal leicht entlaubt und die Triebe weiter unters Netz gespannt, damit sich die Utopia Haze langsam รผber die Flรคche verteilt. Die Pflanze wรคchst aktuell richtig gut, sieht gesund aus und hat schรถne satte grรผne Blรคtter. Der SCROG fรผllt sich langsam und das Cover Crop verwandelt das Beet mittlerweile in einen kleinen Dschungel. Ansonsten habe ich nicht viel gemacht und der Pflanze einfach ihren Raum gegeben. Blumat-System lรคuft stabil, Klima passt ebenfalls.

Day 50: Everything is looking happy after the little trimming. Getting ready to head out of town in a few days. Ordered a small automatic waterer from Amazon to assist while I'm gone. Watering/feeding day. Each plant got 1 gallon of water with the following things: 5mL per gallon Alaska 5-1-1 30mL per gallon Alaska 0-10-10 (a little more than normal to give them a boost) 5mL per gallon GrowMore Seaweed Extract 15mL Blackstrap Molasses Scratched into the surface of each pot is a 1/2 cup of Happy Frog Fruit & Flower Day 52: Leaving town early on Day 53 for 5 days. To prepare for the time I'll be gone I got an automatic watering system from amazon. Since I only use a total of 4 gallons during watering and only need one watering done while I'm gone, a single bucket will do the trick. I set up the system, installed two watering stems per pot, and made a looped system. In the bucket of water, I added nothing but the water. I don't want to have to worry about stirring it or anything like that. I set the system up to water when lights come on during the 3rd day I'm gone, Day 55. After I had the system set up I watered/fed the plants. Each plant got 1 gallon with the following: 5mL per gallon Alaska 5-1-1 15mL per gallon Alaska 0-10-10 5mL per gallon Grow More Seaweed Extract 15mL Blackstrap Molasses Plant 2 also got 1.25mL of AGT-50 Plant 3 also got 15mL of Liquid Culture Microbes Plant 4 also got both the AGT-50 and LCM at the same amounts above. Hope the watering system works.

Day 64 Okay so we're entering the last couple weeks things are looking good I've managed to bring the ppm's down I added three of just straight tap water waited 10 minutes and then added my 2 L of nutrients. Doing this for the last couple days has managed to bring my ppm's down a very large amount now it sits at 1973 PPM I am well on my way Day 66 not much to say just checking the trichomes and she is coming along well this my be the last week for her then on to flushing. PPM now 1836 and the solution is 1668 PPM so i'm doing good now Day 67 i'm happy to say that my ppm run off is now the same as the solution i'm putting in and that's a big win so now in going back to 2L of water then 2L of nute's Day 68 she is holding steady at 1550 ppm i now know the watering that works best more knowledge for the arsenal lol Day 69 not much to say. She is putting on weight fast now that i got the ppm's under control but at this point it may be a week 17 harvest as trichome development is still on the slow side ppm 1763 Day 70 by my estimation she had suffered a minor nute lock out that slowed growth a little bit. T he reason i think this is because now that i have the ppm's in check and at a steady 1550-1620 ppm she is ( for lack of a better word ) exploding with growth in bud size. some new growth has doubled in size in just 24 hrs and that's huge, because of this i'm going to keep her in flower for week 16 and how knows maybe 17 before flush..... side note i had a freak problem with my one Aglex light and the veg side of the light along with some bloom light diodes stopped working. with some help i found out it was 2 LED diodes were drawing on the power and in effect stopped half the light from working we bypassed the bad LED's and we are back in business ๐Ÿ˜€

~ WEDDING CHEESECAKE FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "A delight for the mind and body: Wedding Cheesecake FF (Fast-Flowering) is a delicious strain that offers XXL yields in a 7-8 weeks flowering cycle. This terpene powerhouse produces loads and loads of mouth-watering vanilla-creamy-cookie-scented terps with hints of citrus and cinnamon. In addition to its delicious aromas, this variety grows very well in both indoor and outdoor setups, yielding up to 650 g/m2 without extra maintenance, making it the ideal strain for beginners as it allows you to maximize yields while minimizing work. This super-fast feminized photoperiod version offers upbeat and energetic yet deeply relaxing effects that are perfect for consumers looking for a heavily focused, motivating, and creative high. Itโ€™s the ideal strain for those needing that extra energy boost to start a busy day on the right foot. Wedding Cheesecake FF boasts chunky, large-sized buds with a thick layer of silvery-white resin and bright orange hairs scattered all over: that just screams โ€˜qualityโ€™. The lime-green flowers sparkle with an array of hues ranging from dark to light green, to magenta and purple, and reek of a delicious aroma thatโ€™ll remind you of fresh store-bought cheesecake. This is an XXL hybrid that grows extremely tall in height, reaching up to 3m with one huge main cola and multiple long side branches that can withstand enormous yields of up to 650 g/m2 with ease. Wedding Cheesecake FF is extremely resilient to the elements and can be grown in almost every climate as long as youโ€™ve got the space and basics covered, making her an excellent choice for those looking for large-scale harvests with a quick turnaround time without much effort." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Wedding Cheesecake FF indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30'sโ„‰). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40'sโ„‰, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!๐Ÿคช๐Ÿ’š ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 9/6- Well, Week Five of flower is here and the Wedding Cheesecake FF by FastBuds is rockin-n-rollin! Well fam, the 'Beast From The East' is going strong, and so far has not encountered any issues with any bud rot but is showing signs of the beginnings of Septoria. Luckily, this far into flower it shouldn't be too much of a concern at this point. This late in our growing season I always worry about Boytris, especially with cultivars that have really dense and tightly grouped flowers as our weather is now turning cooler and wetter. 9/8- I'm continuing to water the Wedding Cheesecake FF in the mornings on days that we do not get any substantial rain with well water via the garden hose. Today I went through the plant and removed a bunch of old dead leaves, along with any shade leaves that were totally yellow. I did not water today as we had a good amount of rain yesterday and the soil is still really moist. 9/10- My daily routine of watering, removing dead foliage and checking over the flowers continues. The aroma coming off of the Wedding Cheesecake FF is really loud now and you can definitely pick up some subtle hints of her Cheese lineage in it! 9/12- With Five weeks of flowers now behind her, the FastBuds Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower only has 2-3 more weeks to go (weather permitting) and she's on track to be an enormous yielding plant! I can't wait!!! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! ๐Ÿ’šGrowers Love!๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ™

Has been a rough week dealing with the heat and rain. Having to run the dehumidifier 24 hours a day and I am seeing some foxtailing in most of the strains from the hot air it puts out. Twisted helix was chopped last week. She's not even worth taking pictures of. Tiny buds about the size of my thumb. Not much smell and they are not impressive. I will be making bubble hash and edibles from it. I pulled the blackcherry punch off the feed tube and a few days ago and she is flushing. I filled the reservoir with nutrients for the last time today. After they drink it down in a few day I will start flushing all the plants. Going to be a big job trimming this round since it looks like most of them will be ready for harvest around the same time. There are buds falling over everywhere due to the weight, but it's impossible to get in and tie them up without rubbing all over the buds and damaging a lot of trichomes. So not much can be done about it at this point. Just going to try to keep the temp and humidity down until they are ready for the chop.

Added side lighting on day 10, 2X30 true watt thin led panels. So now I got 2x100 watt, 1x70 watt and 2X30 watt LED lights for a total of 330 true LED watts. Its very bright. I introduced them too a very light feed solution yesterday when they woke up. They seemed too perk up right after. I have been working on trying to get a time lapse working. I have been testing it and trying to get the bugs worked out. Maybe next week I will have some time lapse footage for you all...Maybe.

Day 9 and I'm super proud of how things are going! Runtz stopped growing for about 3 days (d5-d8) since she showed signs of stress/deficiency. After the leaves started greening I watered twice with ph 5.9 water only and she started growing again. I will give another "flush" and I will reintegrate nutrients on a lighter dose. Zkittlez looking very healthy and quick to grow. The two Sticky B look really similar for now too - considering to top one in the future and see the difference! Day 13 Runtz is really slow comparing to the others and the deficiency/lock seems to still be there even tho I adjusted my ph to 5.8 and hold on nutes for the last waterings. Zkittlez still working very quicly and considering topping and LST in the next couple of days. The two Sticky are growing pretty much the same and look healthy! I started watering more (from 0.3l to 0.7l per day) since I'v been told that 60% coco requires much more water than I thought. I'm trying to promote root grow watering in circle around the plant, not touching the stem. Seems like they like it so far.

๐ŸŒฟ 8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Week 13 Amnesia Haze Auto by Zamnesia โ€“ Pheno B The Small-Pot Experiment That Keeps Proving Me Wrong ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ”ฅ๐ŸŒธ Welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And... Guess what? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ MY INCREDIBLY STUPID IDEA IS STILL STUPID. Yes. The small-pot experiment. The brilliant idea that somehow went through my head: "Let's put her in a smaller pot. Maybe she'll stay smaller." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Well... NO. Apparently not. This girl looked at my 11-litre pot and basically said: "That's cute." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ And then she continued growing. And growing. And growing. And growing. Until here we are... Week 13... and I'm still doing significantly more work with this girl than with most of the room. Not because she's difficult. Not because she's unhealthy. Not because something is wrong. Quite the opposite. She's thriving. She's cruising. She's growing beautifully. She's shining. She's bulking. She's developing. She's doing absolutely fucking fantastic. The problem? She's demanding. VERY demanding. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ˜‚ She wants water. Then she wants more water. Then she apparently looks at me and says: "Are we done?" "No." ๐Ÿ˜‚ "More." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ So here I am... trying to keep up with this little-pot monster while the rest of the room is basically cruising along. And honestly? I don't mind the work. I LOVE the work. But this? This is unnecessary work. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Because apparently putting a big-growing plant into a small pot does not make the plant small. It simply makes the grower work harder. Lesson learned. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ“š So let's give this beautiful, demanding, absolutely ridiculous girl the spotlight. Because she deserves it. ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐ŸŒธ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฑ WEEK 13 โ€“ THE SMALL POT THAT REFUSES TO MAKE HER SMALL At this point, I think we've officially proven the theory. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Small pot does not automatically equal small plant. At least not with this girl. She's still growing. She's still getting bigger. She's still developing. She's still building. And somehow... she continues to look like she would happily occupy a 25-litre pot. Or maybe even the ground. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Honestly? I have no idea where she would stop. Maybe she'd just keep going. Maybe she'd eventually ask me for a greenhouse. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ Because the 11-litre pot clearly isn't convincing her that she should be small. She's simply using what space she has and making the absolute most of it. And now I'm paying the price for my experiment every time I have to keep up with her water demand. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ฆ But looking at her? I can't even be annoyed. She's beautiful. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ฆ THE THIRSTY LITTLE MONSTER Let's talk about the real story of this week. Water. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ˜‚ This girl is demanding. Demanding. Demanding. And then... demanding some more. The rest of the room? Cruising. This girl? Also cruising. But apparently she's cruising with the accelerator pressed down. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘ She's using what she's given. She's continuing to grow. She's continuing to build. She's continuing to develop. And because she's doing so much from such a relatively small container, I'm constantly having to keep an eye on her and keep up with what she's asking for. It's almost like she's looking at that 11-litre pot and thinking: "You gave me limited space. Fine. I'll just drink more." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Honestly... I respect the attitude. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ˜‚ THE 11-LITRE POT REGRET CONTINUES Let's revisit my decision. Because apparently I haven't suffered enough yet. ๐Ÿ˜‚ The idea was simple: Small pot. Smaller plant. Less work. Right? WRONG. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ The reality: Small pot. Big plant. More frequent attention. More water demand. More support. More work. More standing in front of her asking: "Why the hell are you still getting bigger?" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ So if anyone is keeping notes from this adventure... please write this down: **DogDoctor's Small Pot Theory** โŒ Small pot = small plant Apparently not. Instead: โŒ Small pot = less work Also apparently not. What I actually got was: ๐ŸŒฑ Big plant ๐Ÿ’ฆ Big thirst ๐ŸŒธ Big flowers ๐Ÿ‘‘ Big personality ๐Ÿ˜‚ Big workload And honestly? It's fucking hilarious. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ SHE'S GROWING LIKE SHE'S IN NATIVE SOIL This is the part that really gets me. Look at her. Seriously. Look at her. ๐Ÿ˜‚ If I didn't know she was sitting in an 11-litre pot, I wouldn't necessarily guess that from looking at the plant. She keeps growing as if she's been given a much larger root zone. Sometimes I look at her and think: "What if I had put you in 25 litres?" ๐Ÿ˜‚ And then another thought: "What if I had just put you in the ground?" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ I genuinely don't know what would have happened. Maybe she'd still be asking for more water. Maybe I'd be standing outside with a hosepipe thinking: "Okay girl, that's enough now." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’ฆ But that's the fascinating part. She's showing us what this phenotype wants to do. And apparently... what she wants to do is GROW. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ THE PLANT IS IN CHARGE At this point, I have officially accepted my role. ๐Ÿ˜‚ I'm not the boss. I'm the provider. I'm the hands. I'm the guy standing there making sure she gets what she needs when she asks for it. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฟ She's basically the boss of the operation. And I'm just here like: "Yes, Your Majesty." ๐Ÿ‘‘ "More water?" "Yes, Your Majesty." ๐Ÿ’ฆ "More support?" "Yes, Your Majesty." ๐Ÿ˜‚ "More space?" "Sorry, Your Majesty. That's where we fucked up." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ The plant doesn't care about my original plan. She doesn't care about my small-pot theory. She doesn't care that the rest of the room is cruising. She's doing what she wants. And my job is simply to support that. And honestly? That's one of the beautiful things about growing. You can make the plan. But the plant gets the final vote. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ STILL BUILDING โ€“ STILL SHINING And despite all the jokes... she really is beautiful. She's still growing. She's still developing her flowers. She's still building. She's still showing that dense, substantial structure we've been following. And she's becoming more impressive week after week. She's not simply sitting there waiting for the end. She's still actively doing her thing. And that's why I'm not worried about the few leaves beginning to yellow. There are some minor yellowing leaves appearing. And yes... we're getting closer to the later stages. But I'm looking at the whole plant. I'm looking at the flowers. I'm looking at her development. I'm looking at her overall appearance. And I'm not seeing something that makes me panic. She's moving toward where she needs to go. Naturally. Gradually. In her own way. And that's perfectly fine. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿƒ A FEW YELLOWING LEAVES โ€“ AND I'M NOT PANICKING This deserves a little mention because I know somebody will notice it. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Yes. There are a few leaves starting to yellow. And honestly? I'm not worried. We're getting further into the flowering cycle. The plant is changing. Some foliage is beginning to show signs of aging. And that's part of the journey. I'm watching it. I'm not ignoring it. But I'm also not inventing a crisis where there isn't one. The plant overall looks beautiful. She's developing. She's building. She's getting closer to the later stages. So I'm simply observing. No panic. No unnecessary intervention. No dramatic: "OH MY GOD, A YELLOW LEAF!" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ One yellowing leaf doesn't get to cancel the entire beautiful plant. We're watching the whole picture. And the whole picture looks damn good. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ DENSE, COMPACT AND STILL GETTING BIGGER One of the things I really love about this girl is that she's not simply growing tall for the sake of being tall. She's becoming substantial. The flowers are dense. The structures are compact. The plant is filling itself out. And she's doing it while continuing to increase in size. It's almost like she's found the cheat code: "Why choose between size and density?" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ I'll just have both. And that's exactly what we're seeing. A plant that's substantial in overall structure... with dense, compact flowering sites... and enough growth to keep the grower permanently occupied. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ฆ She's definitely one of those plants where the photographs don't always tell the whole story until you step back and look at the entire structure. Then you realize: "Oh..." She's actually fucking big. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ THE CAMERA STILL LOVES HER And honestly, I love photographing this girl. Because every week there's something new to see. The overall plant. The main structures. The side branches. The flowers. The leaves. The details. The architecture. And now... the yellowing leaves beginning to appear here and there as she moves toward the later stages. All of those little details become part of the story. That's why I love keeping these weekly diaries. We're not simply trying to produce a final photograph of a finished plant. We're documenting the journey. And this girl's journey has been hilarious. ๐Ÿ˜‚ From: "Let's put her in a small pot." To: "Why the fuck is she still getting bigger?" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ And now: "Please, girl... just finish when you're ready because I'm getting tired of watering you." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ‘‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ก SAME ROOM โ€“ SAME PHOTONS โ€“ HER OWN RESPONSE And once again... she's sharing the exact same room as everybody else. Same 8ร—8. Same general environment. Same lighting philosophy. Same 12/12 schedule. Same nutritional foundation. Same overall care. And yet... look at her. This is another beautiful example of why the 8ร—8 Adventure is so interesting. The environment provides the common stage. The genetics decide what happens on that stage. The same photons hit the canopy. Different plants respond differently. Different structures. Different speeds. Different flower formation. Different water demand. Different personalities. And this girl? She's basically saying: "Give me the photons. I'll take care of the rest." ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ‘‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ˜€๏ธ THE FUTURE OF GROW LIGHTING UPGRADE The expanded lighting setup remains part of the room. Two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures are still giving us additional lighting capability. We're not simply running everything at maximum output. We're controlling the setup around: ๐Ÿ”Œ ~59% power from the plug With approximately: โ˜€๏ธ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy naturally varying according to canopy position and height. And this girl is certainly making use of it. She's growing. She's developing. She's building. She's shining. And she's giving us another example of how different genetics can respond to the same lighting environment. A huge thank you again to Future of Grow for supplying those additional fixtures and allowing us to test them here in the 8ร—8 Adventure. More capability. More control. More photons. And twelve different stories. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ I'M NOT FIGHTING HER ANYMORE I've officially surrendered. ๐Ÿ˜‚ She wins. The small-pot experiment? She won. My theory? Destroyed. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ So now I'm simply accepting reality. She's going to grow. She's going to demand water. She's going to keep developing. And I'm going to keep providing what she needs. That's the relationship. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฑ I'm not trying to make her smaller. I'm not trying to force her into a shape. I'm not trying to punish her for ignoring my original plan. I'm simply letting her be herself. And honestly? That's much more enjoyable. Because when you stop trying to make the plant fit your expectations... you can actually appreciate what the plant is showing you. And this girl is showing us something beautiful. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ฆ THE WORKLOAD IS RIDICULOUS โ€“ BUT I LOVE IT Now... I want to make one thing very clear. I'm complaining. ๐Ÿ˜‚ But I'm not really complaining. I love the work. I love taking care of the plants. I love being in the room. I love checking them. I love watering them. I love watching them change. I love documenting them. So this isn't: "OH GOD, I HAVE TO WORK." ๐Ÿ˜‚ It's more: "WHY DID I CREATE UNNECESSARY WORK FOR MYSELF?" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ There's a difference. I don't mind the work. I just don't necessarily understand why I voluntarily made the workload harder by putting a plant like this into a small pot. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘ But that's part of learning. And I'll gladly take the lesson. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿง  THE 8ร—8 ADVENTURE KEEPS TEACHING This is exactly why I love this project. Every plant teaches something. Every phenotype gives us another observation. Every decision has consequences. Sometimes those consequences are exactly what we expected. Sometimes they're not. And sometimes... you end up with an 11-litre pot containing a plant that behaves like she belongs in 25 litres or native soil. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฟ That's the fun. We're not pretending everything is perfect. We're documenting reality. The good decisions. The questionable decisions. The surprises. The lessons. The successes. The mistakes. And everything in between. And this girl? She's one of the funniest lessons in the entire room. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ SHE DESERVES THE SPOTLIGHT Because despite all my complaining... look at her. She's beautiful. She's healthy-looking. She's growing. She's shining. She's developing. She's getting bigger. She's still building. And she's absolutely doing what she wants. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ So yes... the spotlight belongs to her. Not because she's the biggest plant in the room. Not because she's the fastest. Not because she's the easiest. Actually... definitely NOT because she's the easiest. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ She deserves it because she's one of the most entertaining plants in this entire adventure. She surprised me. She challenged my assumptions. She made me work. And she's still giving me beautiful results in return. That's a pretty good relationship. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฎ WHAT COMES NEXT? Hopefully... the finish line. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ I'm not going to put a deadline on her. I'm not going to pretend I know exactly how long she'll take. But I will say this: Girl... whenever you're ready... please consider finishing. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ‘‘ Because you're giving me work. A LOT of work. And while I love the work... this particular workload was entirely self-inflicted. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ So we'll continue watching. We'll continue supporting. We'll continue providing what she needs. We'll continue observing the flowers. We'll continue watching those few yellowing leaves. And we'll let her decide when she's ready to move into the final chapter. No rushing. No forcing. Just observation. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ญ FINAL THOUGHTS โ€“ THE PLANT THAT REFUSED TO BE SMALL Week 13. Amnesia Haze Auto Pheno B. And I think we can officially say: The small-pot experiment failed. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Not because the plant failed. Because the plant completely ignored the premise. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ I thought: Small pot = smaller plant. She said: "Watch me." ๐Ÿ˜‚ And now she's here. Big. Beautiful. Dense. Compact. Demanding. Thirsty. Still growing. Still shining. Still developing. Still making me work. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ฆ She's drinking. She's asking for more. She's using everything available to her. And she's continuing to grow as if the 11-litre pot is merely a suggestion. Maybe 25 litres would have been more appropriate. Maybe native soil. Maybe I should have just given her a field. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Who knows? What I do know is this: She's beautiful. And I'm incredibly happy with what she's showing us. The few yellowing leaves don't scare me. She's moving toward the later stages. She's beginning to transition naturally. She's still building. She's still doing her thing. And we're simply here to provide what she needs. I'm her provider. Her caretaker. Her hands. Her water delivery service. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ‘‘ Whatever you want to call it. She's the one running the show. And I'm perfectly happy with that. So let's give this beautiful, demanding, ridiculous little-pot Queen the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's keep watching her. Let's keep supporting her. Let's keep watering her when she asks. And let's see if she finally decides to finish before I have to start charging her rent. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ She's not little. She never was. She's simply living in a small pot. And apparently... she has absolutely no intention of letting that stop her. ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’Žโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ™ THANK YOU As always, a massive thank you to everyone following the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document these individual journeys and share everything from the beautiful moments to the completely questionable decisions. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Thank you to Zamnesia for the Amnesia Haze genetics and for giving us this incredible phenotype to follow. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the room with the growing media and nutrition throughout this adventure. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to explore this expanded lighting setup in the 8ร—8. ๐Ÿ’กโ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the deeper areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us monitor and manage the environment behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by to watch these girls develop. It genuinely means a lot. ๐Ÿ’š And thank you to this girl too... for teaching me that apparently an 11-litre pot is not a reliable way to convince Amnesia Haze Pheno B to stay small. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘ We learn. We evolve. We adapt. And we keep growing. This 8ร—8 Adventure continues to show us twelve plants... one room... one shared environment... and twelve completely different stories. And this girl's story? It's one of the funniest. One of the most demanding. One of the most surprising. And one of the most beautiful. She keeps growing. She keeps shining. She keeps asking for water. And I keep showing up. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฟ That's the deal. So let's give her the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's keep watching those beautiful flowers. Let's keep supporting her. And let's see when this demanding little Queen finally decides: "Okay... I'm done." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒธ Until then... I'll be here. Watering. Watching. Documenting. Learning. And wondering why the hell I thought a smaller pot would make my life easier. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Growers Love, my friends. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Happy growing, take care everyone... and I'll see you next week in the 8ร—8 jungle. Where some girls are cruising... some girls are taking the scenic route... and Amnesia Haze Pheno B? She's cruising too... but apparently she's cruising directly through my water reservoir. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ”ฅ See you next week! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ’š

Week 1 : Auto Colorado Cookies Biotabs sprouted quick bursting out of their shell, stayed in the propagator 4 days then straight and erly into the forever home prepared according to the @biotabsf69 method in 5 gal pots, all soil plus 23% perlite just eyeballed it dont know why i'm saying it was that precise lol. mixed in the startrex , added the mykos 3 in the pot and two in the cavity for the root plus, watered with orgatrex and bactrex then used boom boom spray to keep the humidity at around 70 for a day maybe a bit more. got some good pictures of the seedlings in but watered again with plain water 2L on day 3, now the medium is wet and wil likely remain so until late next week . just plain water until week 5 folks dont hold your breath. Just going to be using my special spray, co2 and kelp extract once a week some micro nutres in the spray of my own creation. Enjoy ! VPD .05 - 1.0 finally got it basically right after 3 days

Come vร  ragazzi tutto bene?! Allora cosa posso dire, la ragazza sta crescendo bene , si sta sviluppando naturalmente molto piรน lentamente di una piantina indoor ,causa la differenza di circa 8 ore di luce , รจ normale che la ragazza stia crescendo piรน lentamente. Per ora รจ di un bel verde intenso , le foglie si stanno evolvendo in ampiezza cercando la direzione solare โ˜€๏ธ,speriamo il tempo meteorologico continui cosรฌ con questo bel sole, anche se i prossimi giorni รจ prevista pioggia, ma dalle mie parti ultimamente รจ molto ben gradita dato che siamo in secca nei laghi e fiumi nostrani rispetto al periodo... Cosa posso dire di piรน , si capisce tutto dalle foto di come sta in forma!! Vedremo lo sviluppo nelle prossime settimane di questo splendido hibrido F1 concessomi con molta grazia da royalqueenseeds che ringrazio di โค๏ธ!! Alla prossima settimana e se vi piace mettete like! Buon 420 a tutti! ๐Ÿ˜ผโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ€

Week 5 and the lady is in full pre-flower. One more week of veg and LST. Iโ€™m upping her food hoping she makes a big jump this week. I can see a little purple staring in the center of the bud ๐Ÿ˜
