Hi ho ihr growmies gibt nicht viel zu berichten da die damen keinen platzt mehr in ihren 1L Töpfen hatten und die Stiele und der stamm schon tief rot/lila waren bei allen 4 Pflanzen habe ich mich dazu entschieden die Damen schon jetzt In die end Töpfe zu setzten da das wurzel System eindeutig schon zu groß war für die Ladys dazu aber nächste Woche mehr.... Habe die Damen diese Woche getoppt und von unten her ausrasiert sie reagierten gut darauf und habe auch die t Form schon bilden können dabei sind mir die Achsen die am stamm an liegen leicht ein gerissen zum glück haben die Damen genug zeit das ganze zu verarbeiten und die Achse dick zu machen (wenn ihr rein zoomt bei den Bildern könnt ihr das auch sehen) sonnst war nix diese woche cu und bis nächste woche

4 sett.ho iniziato subito con un hst.non voglio che cresca troppo alta in balcone

☆♡ Gorilla Cookies: I've noticed a leaf fell off the bottom. I think I may've overdone the nutes. She's growing tremendously. I top dressed with the below, as the rest of my plants. I will only use PH'd water for the next several waterings, probably with Biosys or seaweed. ♡☆ 16.2.25: I decided to check out the lower canopies of all plants to see if I need to get rid of any foliage. I did get rid of a few small branches and leaves. However, whilst I was doing this, I saw more garden pegs from my LST remaining. There were about 6 or more in Pink Mist alone. Additionally, on Watermelon, there were some left in, too. I'm so annoyed to see that because the plants are really stretching, and I could've potentially disrupted this by leaving the pegs in for all this time without realising it. 🤞 that I haven't compromised things too much. We'll see. I watered today with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 containing the following nutrients; ♡ .8g Green Leaf Nutrients PK booster ♡ .5g Ecothrive Biosys I ordered quite a few things for the garden. I got Greenleaf Nutrients Sea K(elp) and Mega Crop Parts A+B. To go with their PK Booster I got last month. I'm excited to try it all together. Next run, maybe just using these. We'll see how it goes. 18.2.25: The plants are going crazy for water! Everything is getting used right up so fast! Today, I decided to add some more Black Strap Molasses to add some carbs and other micronutrients. I'll add the jar with the label in the photos section above. I watered a very small amount to each plant. What I put in: ♡ Black strap molasses 150g ♡ 2g Sea K(elp) Greenleaf nutrients. I dissolved everything in 4ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4. 19.2.25: I received the majority of the garden purchases that I made. I'm still waiting for the Ecothrive Life Cycle. I wanted to top dress, but it's been delayed unfortunately. I am using my Greenleaf nutrients products which I bought on Amazon. I got the Mega Crop 2 part system Part A and Part B. I have the Sea K(elp), and the bud explosion PK booster. I really wanted to get some of their sweet candy asking read many positive reviews. Unfortunately, for me, this is unavailable to buy currently. So that's a little disappointing. I needed to do a good watering so when my nutes were delivered today, I got excited 🤗 I watered 2ltrs of dechlorinated water per plant, PH'd to 6.4, containing the following nutrients: ♡ 1g Mega Crop Part A ♡ 1g Mega Crop Part B ♡ .5g Sea K(elp). The plants drank this up within a few hours. I'm going to try and hold off on watering in hopes that my Ecothrive Life Cycle will arrive so I can top dress and water it in then. 20.2.25: My Ecothrive Life Cycle arrived yesterday, and the plants are ready for their top dress and a good watering in. I have some Biobizz Light Mix, Canna Coco,and perlite. I'm going to use this as a base to mix my amendments in. I'm going to fill my 5 gallon bucket with about 4.5 gallons of my top dress mix. I will distribute this across 6, 4-5 gallon pots. Then I will water in well with Greenleaf nutrients Mega Crop Parts A+B and Sea K(elp). I've made a crude attempt to video mixing my top dress. Don't listen to the audio. lol, my YouTube didn't stop playing whilst I recorded this 😂 So anyway, I added the following amendments to the above base mix of 4.5 gallons; ♡ 3 TBSP Ecothrive Life Cycle ♡ 3 TBSP Vitalink Bat Guano ♡ 3 TBSP Ecothrive Charge ♡ 1 TBSP RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules ♡ 6 TBSP Ground Cinnamon.

🍮 Chem Brûlée – Pheno B Week 9 | She May Not Be the Greenest… But She's Bulking Beautifully Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And this week, Chem Brûlée Pheno B has a slightly different story to tell. She's not the greenest girl in the room. She's not carrying that deep, lush green that I absolutely love seeing on a flowering plant. But... she's still growing. She's still building. She's still producing beautiful flowers. And she's still showing us exactly why growing multiple phenotypes together is so fascinating. Sometimes a plant doesn't give you the picture you expected. Sometimes she gives you a question. And the best thing we can do is listen. 🌿 A Quick Look Back Chem Brûlée Pheno B has always been one of the more distinctive expressions of this genetic line. Compared with her sister, Pheno A, she's taller, more elongated and more open. She has developed a very different architecture, with flowering sites distributed along those longer branches rather than creating the more compact structure we've seen from Pheno A. Last week, she received some selective defoliation to open the canopy and give the developing flowers a little more room. And I'm happy to say: she handled it well. There was no dramatic reaction. No major setback. She simply continued doing what she does. Growing. Flowering. And now... bulking. 🌸 🍃 Not the Greenest Girl in the Room Let's talk about the obvious thing first. Her foliage isn't showing the deep, rich green that I personally like to see. It's a little lighter. And when you're looking at twelve different genetics growing under essentially the same conditions, those differences become very easy to notice. Especially when one plant is standing right beside another phenotype that may be carrying a completely different shade of green. But here's the important part: I'm not going to invent a problem just because I don't love the colour. She's still growing. She's still producing flowers. She's still developing. She's still responding to the environment. And that's why we're observing rather than immediately changing everything around her. Could this phenotype simply have a different nutritional demand? Absolutely. Could genetics be contributing to the way she presents? Of course. Could other environmental factors play a role? Potentially. But the whole-plant picture matters much more than one characteristic. And right now, her whole-plant picture says: "I'm still working." So we're listening. Twelve Genetics Don't Get Twelve Different Worlds This is one of the things I really want to emphasize in this project. We're running a lot of plants. Twelve different genetic stories. More than twenty plants in total. And they're sharing the same room, the same general environmental conditions, the same irrigation philosophy and the same reservoir. That means we can't look at every single plant and say: "Okay, you want something different? Let's completely redesign the grow just for you." That's not the experiment. The whole point is consistency. We provide the same foundation... and then we watch how the genetics respond. Some plants are more demanding. Some are more relaxed. Some stay dark green. Some are naturally lighter. Some stretch. Some stay compact. Some drink more. Some drink less. And some... like Chem Brûlée Pheno B... simply keep telling us: "I'm going to do this my way." 😂 And honestly? That's exactly what I want to see. 🌸 But Look at Those Flowers... Because while the foliage may not be giving me the lush green I'm looking for... the flowers are giving me plenty to smile about. She's bulking. The developing flowers are becoming increasingly substantial, and those long branches are now carrying some beautiful flower structures. The pistils remain prominent, while the buds are gaining volume and definition. This is one of those stages where you can really see the plant transitioning from: "I'm flowering." to: "I'm building flowers." And that difference is huge. We're no longer just watching flowering sites appear. We're watching them develop. We're watching them gain substance. We're watching the plant put her energy behind the flowers that she's already created. And Pheno B is doing exactly that. ❄️ The Frost Is Coming Along The resin development is also becoming increasingly noticeable. When you get close with the camera, the flowers start revealing another layer of the story. The sugar leaves are becoming increasingly frosty, and the developing flowers are starting to take on that beautiful sparkling appearance that makes macro photography so addictive. From a distance, you see: a flowering plant. From close up, you see: an entire little universe. That's something I never get tired of. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B is giving us some beautiful subjects to photograph this week. ✂️ How Did She Handle the Defoliation? Pretty well. And that's worth documenting. Last week, we gave her a selective cleanup. Nothing extreme. We removed foliage where it made sense, particularly where leaves were contributing to unnecessary shading or crowding. The objective wasn't to strip her. It was simply to open the architecture she'd already created. And now, looking at her this week, I like the result. The structure is easier to see. The flowers are easier to appreciate. And she's continued developing without missing a beat. That's a good reminder that intervention should always have a reason behind it. We're not defoliating because: "It's Tuesday and apparently Tuesday is defoliation day." 😂 We're doing it when the plant and the canopy give us a reason. 🌿 Her Architecture Is Doing the Work One of the things I really like about Pheno B is her naturally open structure. She's around 130 cm, making her taller than her Chem Brûlée sister, but she's not just tall for the sake of being tall. She's created a very different architecture. Longer branches. More vertical growth. Flowering sites distributed through that structure. And now, as those flowers bulk up, you can really start appreciating what she built earlier in the run. The plant has already made her decisions. Now she's investing in them. And that's why I'm not interested in forcing her to look like Pheno A. They're sisters. They're not twins. 👃 The Story Is Still Developing The aromatic profile is also something I'm continuing to watch. At this stage, I don't want to pretend that the final terpene expression has arrived. We're still watching the flowers mature. But that's part of the fun. With phenotypes growing beside each other under the same conditions, these subtle differences can become incredibly interesting as flowering progresses. The structure is different. The foliage expression is different. The flowering architecture is different. And eventually, the aroma may give us another piece of the puzzle. So for now... I'm simply taking notes. Watching. Photographing. And waiting. ⚗️ Feeding – Consistency Is Part of the Experiment The feeding strategy remains consistent across the room. We're continuing with: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L With Lemon Kick / pH Plus used as required. The current readings are approximately: ⚗️ pH – 6.0 ⚡ EC – 2.0 mS/cm And this is where the philosophy of the 8×8 Adventure really matters. Pheno B may be one of the girls that appears to demand more. But we're not going to create a completely separate feeding world for her while running a shared system with the rest of the room. Instead, we're watching how she adapts. We're looking at the plant. We're looking at the flowers. We're looking at the new growth. And we're looking at the progression over time. Because one photograph tells you what the plant looks like today. A diary tells you how she got there. 🌡️ The Environment The room continues running with remarkably consistent conditions: 🌡️ Day temperature – 29°C 🌙 Night temperature – 25°C 💧 Relative humidity – 60% 🌱 Substrate temperature – 26°C 💦 Solution temperature – 25°C ⚗️ pH – approximately 6.0 ⚡ EC – approximately 2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂ – 639 ppm 💡 Light schedule – 12/12 ? Pot size – 15 L 💧 Watering – approximately 1.3 L/plant/24h And once again, this consistency is important. The environment isn't changing dramatically from plant to plant. So when we see differences... the genetics become increasingly interesting. That's the experiment. 💡 Same Light. Different Plant. The lighting setup continues providing strong overhead illumination, with additional light reaching the inner and lower portions of the canopy. And this phenotype's more open structure works nicely with that arrangement. She's got flowers distributed throughout the plant rather than packed into one dense wall. The selective cleanup has also made some of those structures easier to see. And when you look at the photographs... there's a lot happening. She's not finished. She's not even close. But she's definitely building. 📸 Behind the Lens This week was another reminder of why I love photographing this project. When I look at Pheno B with my eyes, the first thing I notice is the lighter foliage. But when I put the camera close to the flowers... that's not what I see anymore. I see structure. I see pistils. I see developing resin. I see flowers getting bigger. I see branches carrying more weight. And I see a phenotype becoming increasingly recognizable. That's one of the reasons I try not to judge a plant from one characteristic. Step back... look at the whole plant. Then get close... and look at the flowers. Sometimes the story changes completely. 🌿 She's Adapting And that's probably my favourite part of this week's update. She's adapting. She's not necessarily giving us the exact expression I would choose. She's not the deepest green. She's one of the more demanding plants in the room. But she's adapting to the environment we've created. And she's continuing to grow. That matters. Because the purpose of this project isn't to prove that every phenotype behaves identically. It's almost the opposite. We're giving them the same stage... and watching how differently they perform on it. Chem Brûlée Pheno B is showing us: "This is how I play the game." And I'm listening. 🔮 Looking Ahead So what am I expecting from her next? More bulking. More flower definition. More resin. And hopefully an increasingly obvious expression of what this phenotype is capable of. I'm also going to continue watching the foliage carefully. Not panicking. Not ignoring it. Just watching. If the plant continues developing flowers beautifully while maintaining functional foliage and healthy growth, that's valuable information. If other signs begin appearing alongside the colour change, then we'll have another conversation. For now... the flowers are telling a very positive story. And I'm going to let her keep writing it. 🍮 Different Isn't Bad This is something I've learned over and over again throughout this adventure. When you grow one plant by itself, you can easily assume that whatever you see is simply the plant. But when you grow twelve genetics together? Suddenly you have references everywhere. One plant is dark green. Another is lighter. One stretches. Another stays compact. One produces enormous leaves. Another produces completely different foliage. One drinks aggressively. Another is more conservative. And then you have Chem Brûlée Pheno B. She's somewhere in there saying: "I'm going to make beautiful flowers while making you think about my foliage." 😂 And honestly... fair enough. That's what phenotype hunting is about. 🌱 She's Not Perfect. She's Interesting. And maybe that's the best way to describe her this week. She's not perfect. Her green isn't the lush colour I personally love. She's demanding. She's different. But she's also beautiful. She's adapting. She's continuing to grow. She's bulking. She's producing flowers. She's building frost. And she's telling us a story that is completely her own. I wouldn't want to erase that. Because if every plant behaved exactly the same... there wouldn't be much of a phenotype hunt, would there? 💚 Let Her Shine So this week, I'm not going to compare Chem Brûlée Pheno B to the greenest girl in the room. I'm not going to compare her to her sister and ask why she isn't built the same. I'm going to look at her. At approximately 130 cm... with her elongated structure... her developing flowers... her increasing frost... her lighter foliage... and her unmistakable personality... she's doing her thing. And she's doing it beautifully. The flowers are getting bigger. The structure is becoming more impressive. The resin is building. And the plant is still moving forward. That's enough for me. Sometimes the most interesting plants aren't the ones that give you exactly what you expected. They're the ones that make you stop... look... and say: "Okay, girl. Show me what you've got." 🍮🔥 🙏 Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚 This project keeps teaching me something new every single week. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a place to document these journeys, compare experiences and learn from one another. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Chem Brûlée genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover how differently these phenotypes can express themselves. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting the room. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for powering this jungle from above. Thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into the lower and inner areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us maintain consistency behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person who stops to look at these plants and wonder what happens next. You're part of the adventure. And this week, Chem Brûlée Pheno B is reminding us of something I think is incredibly important: A plant doesn't have to be perfect to be fascinating. She may not be showing me the lushest green. She may be one of the more demanding girls in the room. But she's adapting. She's growing. She's bulking. She's building beautiful flowers. And she's becoming more and more herself every week. So let's give this girl the spotlight she deserves. Let's let her shine. Let's see where she takes us. Because the story isn't finished yet. Not even close. 🍮🌸❄️ Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week as Chem Brûlée Pheno B continues writing her own chapter in the 8×8 Adventure. 🚂🍮🌿

Because of the extrem Defolitation/Schwazzing, which was more or less necessary regarding Humidtiy levels of of over 95% around evening night and morning. Even though I also did it for trying out how the Plants react. They mainly stopped growing Bud for 3-4 Days and the leaves of the Bud Sides got a bit Bigger. Also I had problems with NutBurn and Heat Burn, Nutburn because of my not constantly watered Pots which, I guess, ended up beeing a really salty and nutrient soaked(from the soil) substrate because they are reused Filters for Water out of clay. As well in midday it gets really hot and we are more than 3500ft over the sea level. And why I grow in Clay Filters ? Just to try, in my opinion already not recommendable even though it keeps the Soil a bit cooler..

Welcome to my Black Jack b sponsored by Sweet Seeds 2 yrs ago nearly. Veg Weeks & Pre/Post Pre Flower Weeks 7-9 She was really healthy during her entire veg period. Moving into pre flower she didn't do any excess stretching. Plant was doing very well moving into pre flower it took a good few weeks for her to flip but it was building up a good base up and down the nodes. I used plagron right through half of flowering possibly more. For the last 4 weeks I moved all my plants to Xpert Nutrients. MAINTENANCE I carried out a good bit of work making sure all parts of her was getting light (as much as she didn't get, it was more then enough to get A grade bud just like it was done under a 100w). I stripped a lot of shoots coming into & during pre fower. So when coming in to fattening all her energy went into making buds that were brought to harvest. Knowing light would be an Issue (lack off) i made sure to use all my skills to move energy through a plant. After pre fower was over (plants nodes stop growing up) and I left her a few days for the leaves to take in energy building stigmata. Then I done 10-15% defoliations for mid wk into fattening and beyond until I felt was enough removed (3-4 stages). Now on her last few days I took loads of leaves off to help ripening. She's 95% cloudy and 15% or so Amber. I had to give 10l of water to flush the nutes I had given her. 4l was given and ppm was 650. So I had to give another 6L to get the ppm down to 250 area. 3 days its been under light for 11hrs with 30m of UV-A doses from 65cm away (they are attached to my light IR/UV45) FLOWERING/RIPENING WEEKS Plant moved very nicely through fattening. Buds are lots but whets there is pretty darn good for been at the side of a FC3000 300w light in a 1m2 tent doing many other plants. And this been by far been under the best part of it. It sat on the outskirts as this fem is one of my 1st 5 I started together with 7 autos in phase 1 of my 6 phase crop with 10-15 plants per phase. Took (NUMBER 4 this 1 is). 14 weeks from seed. And she's been through a hard flush. As the last 4.5 weeks she's been on Xpert Nutrients. NUTRIENT GIVEN So I know tats a large list. But as I updated my a lot of weeks into 1. I left on the list what was given. All of plagron was given through most of the grow right through to the middle of fattening and then I switched it (all my plants to Xpert Nutrients bloom nutes). And even then, I normally give more than 2-3 nutrients in 1 feeding 2-3 day window. Its important tat a plant take up these as individual so I typically leave a few days or at least 1-2 water feeds (or low ec feeds such as an enzyme, or calmag to help break down any excess nutrients left behind from last feed) I added my SE5000 and have this 60+cm away just finish off the ripening process. Pant has a good amount of bud. And really like this breeder. What have I been missing out on Sweet Seeds both plants are dreams to grow. Thanks to my sponsors. Xpert Nutrients have given me a gift for you guys. !!DISCOUNT CODE FOR XPERT NUTRIENTS!! CODE FOR 15% OFF & FREE SHIPPING IN EU:GGST !!DISCOUNT CODE FOR XPERT NUTRIENTS!! Much appreciation to Sweet Seeds. Seeds are nearly 2yrs old. I've had them for nearly all that time. They were packaged within a month of me getting them. Shout out to Mars-Hydro for their FC3000 & IR/UC45. Had to break out my SE5000 as nice as this plant is its needs fell short been in a tent with 15 other plants. My se5000 is giving 55k lux (that's the lowest level BTW in my corners I just about got that mid field using my 300w.)

Day 78! I’m so proud of just going for it and actually figuring out I have a geek thumb, I’m obsessed. Also added MXB microbes (organic) for a little boost on uptake 🤗🌱🌱 Day 80! All the buds are connecting 🙏🏼 Huge yield hopefully 💚☺️ Day 83! I’ve increased some of my Nutes and did heavy defoliation

Greetings growers,I took the two girls out of the greenhouse because it is getting very hot, they will finish flowering outside. Both are starting to produce beautiful compact flowers that are getting bigger every day. Starting to smell very good around here.😎

08/20: 3ème semaine de veg. Le "main-lining" prend forme sur LF@1. +/-170ml/engraisser chaqu'une *pour un départ difficile je trouve trouve que les choses ont finie par prendre une belle direction. Maintenant ont vas attendre la floraison de cette toute nouvelle "strain" qui serait donc d'un goût proche du Fanta et d'un effet plus anxiolitique vus l'effet du cbd sur le thc. Parfait pour commencer la journée en douceur. Maintenant on vas voir le rendement: le substrat contient 50% de coco ce qui devrait augmenter la masse des racines et donc affecter le taille des plants et le rendement in fine. #24 08/22: +/- 240ml chaqu'une #26 08/24: premier arrosage avec drain. +/-400ml, le substrat était très sec pour assurer un bon dévellopement racinaire durant la veg. #28 08/25: j'ai encore une fois torturer LF#0 j'espère qu'elle se remettra vite, LF@1 quand à elle sont "main-lining" prend la forme désirer, dernier ajustement fait ce matin d'ici deux jours tout devrait être placés comme je le souhaite. #29 06/26:+/-600ml/engraisser chaqu'une. Déjà au stade de pré-flo on se rend compte de les boutons de fleur sont déjà plus gros et contiennent plus de pistils sur le "main-lining" que sur celle qui simplement LST #30

🌱 Amnesia Skunk — Grow Recap (from seed to now) Strain: Amnesia Skunk Auto-Flower: 12/12 from seed Current age: Week 7 from seed Flowering reference: Week 3 of flower (by morphology, not calendar) How we got here • From day one, this run was intentional: 12/12 from seed, no veg phase. • Plants established quickly with strong root development and steady internodal spacing. • Early structure showed vigorous lateral branching, typical of Amnesia-leaning genetics. • Transition into flower was smooth — no stall, no stress signals. • By early flower, canopy density increased fast, especially in a full 8×8 room (~27 plants). This is where room logic started to matter more than single-plant logic. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Snapshot (current) • Day temp: ~28 °C • RH: ~65% • EC: ~2.4 • pH: ~6.5 • Height: ~40–80 cm • Lighting: LED (multi-layer canopy + under-canopy) On paper? Some growers panic at 28 °C in flower. In practice? This is where understanding beats numbers. ⸻ 🍃 LED, Leaf Temperature & VPD (the part most skip) Under LED lighting, room temperature ≠ what the plant feels. Unlike HPS, LEDs: • Don’t dump infrared heat • Keep leaf surface temperature 2–4 °C cooler than ambient So when: • Room temp ≈ 28 °C • Leaf temp ≈ 24–26 °C • RH ≈ 65% 👉 Leaf VPD lands right in the comfort zone for early–mid flower. And the plants confirm it: • Deep, relaxed green • No tacoing • No stress-praying • Strong internodes • Uniform nutrient uptake across phenotypes That’s real data. We’re not ignoring numbers — we’re letting plant behavior be the final authority. Stability fixing something that isn’t broken. ⸻ ✂️ Defoliation — why it was heavier this week Let’s be very clear: This was not aesthetic defoliation. This was functional, room-driven defoliation. Context matters • 🏠 8×8 room • 🌱 ~27 plants • 🌬️ Airflow, humidity pockets, and light penetration scale very differently at this density A single plant might not ask for it — but the room did. Why we defoliated • Improve airflow through a dense canopy • Reduce micro-humidity pockets • Let photons travel into the canopy, not just hit the top • Reset apical dominance • Refocus energy toward flowering sites Yes — it was heavier than initially planned. But: • Genetics are strong • Roots are dialed • Feed is stable • Plants are healthy Healthy plants recover fast. Stressed plants don’t. We also: • Found a few minor under-canopy light burns • Nothing serious • Removed affected leaves • Cleaned structure The girls responded immediately — posture, color, and turgor all stayed on point. ⸻ 🌸 Where we are now (Week 3 flower) • Clear flower initiation • Sites are stacking evenly • Stretch is slowing • Structure is set • Energy is shifting from leaf production → flower development This is exactly where we want to be. ⸻ 🔮 What to expect next (and what not to) Expect: • Calyx stacking to accelerate • Stretch to finish over the next 7–10 days • Flowers to start defining their final architecture • Strong recovery response from defoliation Don’t expect: • Explosive bulk yet (that comes later) • Resin maturity at this stage • Any need for drastic changes From here on: • Stability • Observation • Small, intentional adjustments only if the plants ask ⸻ 🙏 Final words Thank you to everybody: • Lovers ❤️ • Haters 😉 • New followers • OGs • The GD platform • The GD community • The ones who ask questions • And the silent ones who just watch and learn Everyone is welcome here. This week was defoliation week, and the girls told us clearly what they needed — so we listened. Plants are looking outstanding, and this Amnesia Skunk run is right where it should be.

Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

🤷🏿‍♂️🔇

Lot of growth this week. Pie piss is stretchy but I like her look. Velvet cream is the butter leaf looking one. I don’t understand this yet. Is it going to be ok? It has grown fine but it’s has always not really looked like cannabis. Feedback would be wonderful! Orange Creampop was given back to me by my friend. So I have chopped her down 1/3 and topped her. She was meant for outdoors but I’m going to flower her now. Hope she survives the trauma. Small orange Creampop is old and weird. But it’s an experiment now with her. Thanks for viewing!

When it should start flowering?

Day 69 late report this week, starting to turn milky so about another 2 weeks i think

Short and bushy

Bud washing is still fairly controversial. I do it because this is a personal crop, i dont have much time or space to toss a plant that might show a bit. Jorge Cervantes does it, so can I! Updates to come!

🗓️ WEEK 8 (flo) - HARVEST WEEK (56° FLO) 💧 Midway through this final week of flowering, I performed a complete DWC reservoir change. I replaced the nutrient solution with plain tap water, EC 0.4 - pH 5.8. This flushing solution was maintained for 4 days, right up until the moment of harvest. 🌱 On the 56° day of flowering (day 84 from the dry seed), the plant appeared perfectly ready for harvest. The buds are dense and glistening with resin, nearly all pistils have browned and retracted, and the trichomes show a beautiful mix of milky and enough amber. Immediately after chopping her down, I removed all the large fan leaves and I've decided to dry these too as they are remarkably full of resin. ✅ DRYING PHASE The entire plant was hung to dry inside the grow box, which was kept completely dark with constant, gentle air circulation for 8 days. The average VPD during this period was maintained around 1.2 (approximately 20°C and 50% RH). Once this drying period was complete, I trimmed off all the sugar leaves. These resinous sugar leaves will be combined with the already dried fan leaves and larf buds, and I plan to use them to make cannabutter for edibles. ⚖️ DRY WEIGHT After the 8-day drying period, and once all the remaining small leaves and branches were removed from the buds, I weighed the final product: The harvest yielded: - 150 grams of dense buds. - 5 grams of finger hash collected during handling. For edibles: - 30 grams of larf. - A large amount of fan and sugar leaves. ⚠️ In the next coming days I'll update the harvest week with info about curing stage and a smoke review.

Hello growmies Buds start fatten up and we like it 👆😎 This week the buds have started gaining weight. I think it's exactly the right time because I still have a few weeks to go. From this point on I try to keep the PK content at the same level for the next 2 weeks, then I will increase the fertilizer dose a bit and fertilize like this for another 2 weeks until flowering week 8. What I noticed with my plants up to now is that they are very sensitive to light and that over 1000 ppfd is not possible without an additional co2 supply. Otherwise I have only good things to say, they smell delicious, they have a very good defense against pests and mold. Sometimes the humidity was over 70 at night. I am very excited about the result, the effect and the taste 🙂 I will post a video tomorrow I wish my Growers Family and Sponsors a pleasant weekend without stress and hectic. Stay healthy 🙏🙏🍀

just waiting for the clone to root now and give it away then we can beggin flowering added sea algae composte for the first time in a while to the feeding schedule lets see if it does anything i did some defoliating hoping for a quick recovery and am posting photos of that in a few hours update later day 1 of week 8: as seen from the photo i did i slight defoliation by removing some bigger shaded lower laying fan leaves
