This thing is smelling so delicious. Resin is starting to get heavy, and the buds are really swelling. Had just a touch of nutrient burn from bringing Foop into the fold, but I think she's handling that just fine and dandy.

On day 1 I changed out my reservoir. I lowered my nutes to 650 ppm(25% reduction). I adjusted the PH down to 6.1. My left plant has some burnt tips from either PH shift or over fertilization. My hope is that the lower ppm will help to resolve the issue before it spreads. On day 2 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 6.3 to 5.9. On day 3 the reservoirs PH is 6.0. I installed my new 200 watt HLG Rspec. I adjusted PPFD readings to 700-1300 PPFD on all tops. On day 4 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 5.8 to 6.2. On day 5 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 6.4 to 6.0. I diluted my nutrients in my reservoir by removing one gallon of nutrients from the rez and and adding 2 gallons of straight tap water to the rez. This brought the nute concentration from 770 ppm to 540 ppm as the plants will be entering the ripening stage in a few days and they have too much nitrogen judging by the extremely dark green leaves and burnt leaf tips on some branches of the left side plant. The buds seem slightly smaller then my last run which may be due to an excess of nitrogen and maybe not enough light as some of my tops are taller then the others making proper PPFD challenging. All in all the girls are coming along nice and I look forward to the final weeks of flowering ๐Ÿ˜€ On day 6 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 5.9 to 6.2. I think I have halted the nute burn as I haven't seen it progressing any more on the leaves. I will continue to monitor closely during these final weeks. The trichome production is increasing with some trichs on top of colas starting to go cloudy. The pistils are turning brown with roughly 40-50% are turning brown all signs I'm getting closer to the harvest window ๐Ÿ˜†. I dimmed my light to give 600-1000 PPFD to tops. On day 7 I reduced my temps to 75 during the day and 68 at night. I adjusted the PH of the reservoir from 6.6 to 6.1. My reservoirs ppm was too high so I diluted the rez with 2 gal of tap water. This brought it down to 480ppm. The average ppfd to all 14 tops is 604 with no top receiving more than 1000 ppfd

We have made it to the end of Week 6. Conditions in the tent have improved DRAMATICALLY. The heat wave has finally passed and the temperature has finally leveled out. Not only that, the super weird monsoon weather that we were having has also passed and now the humidity is not rising above 60%. This turn for the best is really showing and also fixing the pH problem I had also probably helped a lot. The color of the buds is really coming through now. They are showing lots of light blues and a little orange and I am loving it. I am planning on pushing the nutrients a little higher these next two weeks, around 750-850 PPM. Hoping to give them a larger shot of overdrive to keep them pushing these last 2 or 3 weeks. Overall I am SO excited for this plant, I can't wait to see what her harvest will bring!!!

Week 11 - 05/24 - 05/30 Light - 400 W HPS & 265 W LED Temperature - 76 +/-3 Humidity - 50 +/-5 D25 Flower - Came back from a long weekend away to some nice growth! Watered with nutrients and tucked some of the larger leaves. Took some measurements since the two strains are growing different. I keep turning the light power up and down to adjust for the outside temp, I don't want the tent to get too hot. D28 Flower - The clones have stretched a little bit more but for the most part, I think they are done stretching. Buds are forming nicely and starting to produce a sweet smell!

The plant took off this week. I am relatively new so was working through getting my PH measuring/balancing down. Now that I have established a better method the plant responded well. Put in a scrog to help even the canopy for the future. The other plant I have running is a bubblegum autoflower that is a few weeks older (right). Personally I really loved the look of the gold leaf at this point, it had a very nice spiral look to it almost like an xmas wreath.

Ok so this week I did a defoliation and a tigh down too the netting , I really was not planning on doing such a big defoliation but the leafs became thick and dense and there was almost no light penitration down too the lower branches of the plant , so she is opened right up now and the humidity and temperature has dropped loads and the air is moving alot better around the leaves and branches , I will not take anything more off her now , I have also added Cal mag too the nutrients for this week only , she is well into pre flower now but the stretch has not yet started so I figured it's no or never too defoliate and tigh them down , this grill really has grown right out this week and is unrecognisable from the plant just a few days ago , I am very happy with them so far and being new too all this it's all very exciting , Thanks for looking :)

๐Ÿš‚ Cash Express โ€“ Pheno B Week 8 | Same Genetics, Different Expression Welcome back to another week of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ If you've been following this phenotype hunt, you've probably already noticed something fascinating about Cash Express. There are two sisters in this room. Same genetics. Same environment. Same lighting. Same irrigation system. Same nutrient solution. And yet... They are becoming two very different plants. That is exactly why I love growing multiple phenotypes side by side. Genetics don't produce copies. They produce possibilities. Cash Express Pheno B continues moving beautifully through flowering, and this week she's showing even more clearly what makes her different from her sister. She's a little taller. Her branching is different. And most importantly, her flowers are developing with a completely different structure. And I absolutely love it. ๐ŸŒฟ Same Genetics... Different Personality When you place Pheno A and Pheno B beside each other, the differences become much easier to appreciate. Pheno A has developed into a smaller, more compact and almost perfectly symmetrical plant. Pheno B chose a different path. She's taller, more elongated and more open through the canopy. Her flowering sites have developed along the branches in a different pattern, giving the plant a completely different visual character. Neither one is better. Neither one is worse. They're simply different expressions of the same genetic family. And this is exactly what a phenotype hunt is supposed to reveal. You can grow two plants from the same genetics, give them the same treatment from beginning to end, and still end up with two ladies that look, smell and develop differently. That's the beauty of genetics. ๐ŸŒธ The White Hairs Are Taking Over Flower development has really started becoming the main event this week. The white pistils are everywhere. Every flowering site seems to be reaching outward, creating those beautiful little explosions of white hairs that make the plant look almost alive in motion. The flowers are also becoming much easier to define. We're moving beyond the stage where they simply looked like little flowering points. Now they're beginning to look like actual developing flowers. And this is where patience becomes important. There's still a lot of development ahead. The pistils are abundant, but the flowers themselves still have plenty of time to build density and volume. So while she is already looking impressive... We're nowhere near the final product yet. Two Phenotypes, Two Flower Structures This is probably one of my favourite observations this week. When I look at Pheno A and Pheno B, the difference isn't just plant height. Their flowers themselves are developing differently. Pheno B is creating a more elongated, layered structure along the branches, while Pheno A has been showing a more compact and chunky architecture. It's subtle now. But as flowering progresses, these differences should become even more pronounced. And this is one of those moments where I don't want to interfere too much. I don't want to force one phenotype to behave like the other. I want to see what Pheno B wants to become. That's the whole point. Let the genetics speak. ? Healthy, Happy and Hungry One thing is very clear when looking at this girl: She's hungry. We've increased the nutrient concentration slightly again this week. Yes, we're now running above what the basic feeding chart would normally suggest. But plants don't read feeding charts. They respond to their environment, their root systems, their metabolism and their genetic demands. And these girls have been demanding more. So we're providing more โ€” while watching them closely. This isn't about blindly pushing nutrients higher. It's about observing the plant and responding to what she's actually showing us. And Pheno B is giving us some very good feedback. The foliage remains healthy. The flowers continue developing strongly. The plant is actively producing. And there are no obvious signs that she's unhappy with the increased concentration. So for now, we're listening. ๐Ÿƒ The Leaves Tell the Story One of the things I really appreciate about this phenotype is how healthy her foliage continues to look. The leaves are deep green, well formed and beautifully structured. There's a lot of life in this plant. When you combine that healthy canopy with the amount of flowering activity we're seeing, it's difficult not to call this girl a little lush. She's simply thriving. And that's an important distinction. We're seeing plenty of flowering activity without the plant looking exhausted or unhappy. She's still carrying herself with confidence. Still producing new pistils. Still building. Still hungry. That's exactly where I want her at this stage. About Those Purple Stems... Now let's talk about something that's visible. Because if it's there, I think it's worth documenting. There is some purplish coloration appearing through portions of the stems and petioles. It's definitely present. But at this point, I'm not seeing a reason to panic about it. Why? Because the plant doesn't look distressed. The leaves look healthy. The flowering sites are developing. The pistils are coming in strongly. There's no obvious widespread deterioration accompanying the coloration. And most importantly, the plant is behaving like a happy plant. Stem and petiole coloration can have several causes, including genetics and environmental influences, so I'm not going to automatically label it as a deficiency simply because I can see purple. For now, it's something we're observing. It's part of her phenotype. If the coloration progresses together with other symptoms, then it becomes a different conversation. But right now? It's there. We're documenting it. We're watching it. And we're not going to invent a problem that the plant isn't showing us. That's an important part of reading plants. ๐Ÿ‘ƒ The Terpene Story Is Beginning The smell is also starting to become more interesting. At this stage, we're still relatively early in the development of the full aromatic profile. So I'm not going to pretend that we're already smelling the finished Cash Express. We're not. Right now, the overall aroma remains fairly typical for this stage of flowering, and there are still similarities across the room. But... If you spend enough time around twelve different plants every day, you start noticing little differences. And that's what I'm beginning to notice now. The plants are slowly separating themselves aromatically. Pheno A and Pheno B currently seem to share a similar general terpene direction. They're not identical, but there is a recognizable family resemblance. And I'm very curious to see whether that similarity remains as the flowers mature. Because sometimes the differences become much more obvious later in flowering. For now, I'm simply enjoying the first hints. ๐Ÿ’ก Above and Below The combination of the overhead Future of Grow Black Series LED and the LumiFlora under-canopy lighting continues giving this girl plenty of light throughout her structure. Her naturally more open architecture works beautifully with this setup. The flowers aren't packed into one giant wall of foliage. There's space between the branches. There's airflow. There's light penetration. And the lower flowering sites aren't completely forgotten. It's another interesting contrast with Pheno A, whose more compact structure creates a very different light distribution. Same room. Same lights. Different architecture. And once again, the plant itself changes the equation. ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Environment The room continues providing a remarkably consistent environment for all twelve phenotypes. ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature: 29ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature: 25ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง Relative humidity: 60% ๐Ÿฅฅ Root zone temperature: 21ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ฆ Nutrient solution temperature: 24ยฐC โš—๏ธ pH: 6.0 โšก EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm ๐Ÿ’จ COโ‚‚: 639 ppm ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L ๐Ÿ’ง Water consumption: approximately 1.3 L/24h Once again, consistency remains one of the biggest advantages of this experiment. With twelve different cultivars sharing the same environment, the plants themselves become the variables we're watching. And Cash Express Pheno B is definitely writing her own chapter. ๐ŸŒฑ Feeding This week we made another small increase to the nutrient concentration. The current reservoir is running: Plagron Terra Bloom โ€“ 2.2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds โ€“ 1 ml/L Plagron Green Sensation โ€“ 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal โ€“ 1 ml/L pH adjustment with Lemon Kick / pH Plus as required. The important part here isn't simply the numbers. It's the response. These girls are demanding. They're actively flowering, they're consuming, and they're telling us that they're capable of using more. So we're providing it. But we're also watching. No blind chasing of numbers. No feeding harder simply because we can. Observe โ†’ respond โ†’ observe again. That's the philosophy. ๐Ÿ“ธ Behind the Lens This phenotype is becoming a photographer's dream. The photographs this week really show the differences between the sisters. Her flowers have their own architecture. Her leaves frame the flowers differently. Her taller structure creates different perspectives throughout the plant. And those white pistils... They're absolutely everywhere. Some of the close-ups almost look like little fireworks exploding from the tops of the flowers. The resin coverage is also becoming increasingly visible on the sugar leaves, giving us those beautiful sparkling edges that become so addictive to photograph. And I have to say... This girl is beautiful. Not because she's the biggest. Not because she's the fastest. Not because she's trying to dominate the room. She's beautiful because she's becoming exactly what she is supposed to become. ๐Ÿ” Quick Recap So where are we now? ๐Ÿš‚ Cash Express Pheno B is thriving. ๐ŸŒฟ She's taller and more open than her sister. ๐ŸŒธ Flower formation is clearly different from Pheno A. ? White pistils are multiplying rapidly across the canopy. ๐Ÿƒ Foliage remains healthy and vigorous. The phenotype is becoming increasingly recognizable. ๐Ÿ‘ƒ The terpene profile is beginning to show itself, although it's still early. ๐Ÿ’œ Some purple coloration is visible in stems and petioles, but currently without accompanying signs of significant plant stress. ๐ŸŒฑ She's hungry, so we've increased nutrition slightly again. And most importantly... She's happy. ๐Ÿ”ฎ What I Expect Next Week Next week, I expect the flowers to become more substantial. The pistils will probably continue appearing in large numbers, while the actual flower mass slowly catches up with all that beautiful white hair. I expect the structure of Pheno B to become even easier to distinguish from Pheno A. The terpene profile may also start becoming more interesting as the flowers mature. And I'm especially curious about the purple coloration. Not because I'm worried about it... But because I want to see whether it remains part of her natural expression or becomes more pronounced as flowering progresses. What I DON'T expect: I don't expect these flowers to suddenly look finished. I don't expect the final terpene profile to be completely obvious yet. And I certainly don't expect Pheno B to suddenly start looking like her sister. She's already told us that's not who she is. And I wouldn't want it any other way. ๐ŸŒฑ The Beauty of a Phenotype Hunt This is probably the biggest lesson this week. When you're growing twelve different cultivars together, it's very easy to look at differences and immediately ask: "Which one is better?" But that's not really the right question. The better question is: "What makes this one different?" Pheno A has her own personality. Pheno B has hers. And both are fascinating. The goal isn't to make them identical. The goal is to discover what each one carries within its genetics. That's what makes this 8ร—8 Adventure so much fun. We're not just growing plants. We're watching twelve different genetic stories unfold under the same conditions. And Cash Express Pheno B is writing a particularly beautiful chapter right now. ๐Ÿ’š Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following this 8ร—8 Adventure. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for creating a place where growers from around the world can document, compare, learn and share these journeys together. Thank you to Zamnesia for these Cash Express genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore how differently these phenotypes can express themselves. Thank you to Plagron for providing the nutrition supporting this entire journey. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for the powerful overhead lighting driving the plants throughout the cycle. A special thank you to LumiFlora for the under-canopy lighting helping bring additional light to those lower flowering sites. And thank you to AutoPot for the irrigation system that continues allowing the plants to manage their own water demand. And finally... Thank you to every single person following along. Every comment. Every message. Every question. Every person who simply stops for a moment to look at these plants. It means a lot. This project is about more than chasing numbers or comparing yields. It's about watching nature express itself. And this week, Cash Express Pheno B is reminding us once again that same genetics doesn't mean same plant. She's taller than her sister. She's built differently. She's flowering differently. She's beginning to reveal her own aromatic personality. And she's absolutely beautiful doing it. Growers Love, and I'll see you all next week as Cash Express Pheno B continues writing her own story in the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿš‚๐ŸŒฑ PS- we did defoliate a few leafs here and there

This week did not go too well. The plants started being more and more droopy and barely grew, which you can clearly see in the time-lapse. I initially thought they were sitting in coco that was too wet, but drying it out did not help their case. I had already wanted to transplant them at this stage, but didn't have the right pot size available yet due to a late delivery. Then, at day 13 from planting the seeds, I received the pots and immediately went on to transplant them into wet buffered coco in 1 liter pots. They instantly recovered and have been doing great ever since as you can see in the last picture. Starting from the transplant, I have been feeding them with 0.5-0.7 EC water, a bit more than half of that made up of calmag, the rest coco A+B and rhizotonic. One is showing a slight calcium deficiency, weirdly enough. Especially as the coco was buffered in a 1.2 EC calmag solution for several days before use. Will keep an eye on this and might give some extra calcium as a mono nutrient. For now, next week looks promising. This update is a little late, so I can tell you that by next week's update they will look much better.
