🌱 8×8 Adventure – Chem Brûlée (Plant B) | Week 4 A Different Sister, A Different Strategy Welcome back to another chapter of my 8×8 Adventure, a project dedicated to exploring how different genetics—and even different phenotypes from the same cultivar—express themselves when grown under identical conditions. Each plant receives the same environment, nutrition, lighting, and care, allowing their natural characteristics to shine without outside variables influencing the results. Today’s update focuses on Chem Brûlée – Plant B, and she’s already proving that even sisters can choose very different paths. While her sibling has been building a strong upright structure, this beautiful lady has embraced training remarkably well, opening herself into a wider, flatter canopy that promises excellent light distribution for the weeks ahead. Watching these individual personalities emerge is exactly why I love phenotype hunting. ⸻ 🌿 Life Inside the 8×8 Garden The entire room continues thriving under stable environmental conditions. Current room parameters: 🌡️ Temperature: 33.3°C 💧 Relative Humidity: 63% ⚡ Nutrient Solution EC: 1.36 mS/cm pH: 6.12 💦 Reservoir Temperature: 25.7°C Although temperatures remain on the warm side, constant air circulation keeps fresh air moving throughout the canopy, helping every cultivar continue vigorous growth while maintaining healthy transpiration. It’s always fascinating seeing twelve different cultivars respond to exactly the same environment, each revealing its own unique blueprint. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Program Chem Brûlée continues receiving the same nutrition as the rest of the 8×8 project. This week’s feeding includes: • Plagron Terra Grow • Plagron Power Roots • Plagron Pure Zym • Plagron Vita Race (foliar application) Everything appears perfectly balanced. Healthy green foliage, steady development, and vigorous new shoots suggest she’s making excellent use of every feeding. ⸻ 🌿 Growth & Development This phenotype has really begun showing her own identity. Instead of pushing strongly upward, she’s naturally spreading her energy across multiple growing tips, creating a much broader plant than her sister at the same stage. The most striking feature remains those gorgeous oversized fan leaves. They’re broad, healthy, beautifully coloured, and already acting like efficient solar panels, capturing every available photon while fueling explosive vegetative growth. The newest growth emerges vibrant lime green before gradually darkening as the leaves mature, a classic sign of healthy development. Every node appears active, with numerous secondary shoots beginning to accelerate now that the canopy has opened. She’s becoming increasingly bushy without ever looking crowded. The structure feels balanced, vigorous and full of potential. ⸻ ✂️ Low Stress Training This week the focus has been gentle Low Stress Training (LST). Rather than removing the main growing tip, the stem has been carefully bent and secured to encourage the plant to redistribute its growth hormones naturally. By lowering the dominant shoot, the plant begins directing energy into multiple side branches instead of concentrating everything into one central cola. The results are already becoming visible. Several new tops are racing upward together, creating a much flatter canopy that should make far better use of the available light during flowering. LST remains one of my favourite training techniques because it shapes the plant without slowing her down. Minimal stress. Maximum opportunity. Watching these secondary branches wake up over the coming weeks should be incredibly rewarding. ⸻ 🚀 Looking Ahead Chem Brûlée Plant B is setting herself up beautifully for the next stage of development. As the secondary branches continue catching up, the canopy should become increasingly even, giving every future flowering site access to strong light. The plan remains simple: Continue guiding the branches gently through LST. Allow the canopy to expand naturally. Maintain environmental stability. Then simply let the genetics do what they do best. Every day she’s becoming wider, fuller, and more balanced. ⸻ 💚 Final Thoughts One of the greatest lessons this project continues teaching is that no two plants—even sisters—tell exactly the same story. Chem Brûlée Plant B has embraced training with incredible enthusiasm. Her open structure… Those beautiful oversized fan leaves… The explosion of new growing tips… Everything points toward a plant that’s preparing to fill her space with an abundance of healthy flowering sites. She’s elegant. She’s vigorous. And she’s making every adjustment look effortless. I can’t wait to see how this beautifully trained structure develops once flowering truly begins. ⸻ A huge thank you to Plagron for providing the nutrition that keeps this entire garden thriving, Zamnesia for the fantastic genetics and equipment making this project possible, and of course to the amazing GrowDiaries community for following every step of this journey. Growers love and thank you all for the your encouragement, advice and support that continue making this adventure even more enjoyable. See you all in the next update, where Chem Brûlée Plant B will continue writing her own unique story inside the 8×8 Adventure. 🌱💚

- Day 43 Refreshed the tank today. pH was reading at 5.5 so seems like she is mostly drinking the water and not really the nutrients..I think. she's drinking a lot so the nutrients get a lot more concentrated. Gonna have to keep an eye on that. Think it's good that I switch to a schedule now of replacing the water reservoir twice a week now. Also checked PPFD, the top canopy is getting about 620 PPFD. Day 44 Flowers are starting to set in nicely. She is drinking a lot right now, have to top up the 4 liter reservoir every day now it seems. pH went up to 6.4, so brought it back down to 6.0 now. Day 45 She had another big stretch over night. I've raised the light a bit as she was getting close to it now and I don't wanna overstress her. She is still drinking a lot, topped up the reservoir with another 1.3 liters of ph 6.0 water. Will be doing a full water change tomorrow. Day 46 Fully renewed the water today with new nutrients, I did put in a bit less of each nutrient this time, I'm seeing some minor leaf tip burn starting to happen. Seems to correlate with the higher bloom nutrient dose, so I will dial that a bit down from now on. Removed some fan leaves on the fastest growing stems also to slow them down a bit, a lot of the smaller stems are starting to catch up nicely now. Day 47 Had to top up with 1.5 liters of water, she is definitely drinking even more now...after adding the water (6.0 pH) the pH was 6.1. She is still growing a lot as well, especially those side stems are catching up to the top of the canopy. I should probably do some lollipopping soon. Day 48 Ph was down to 5.8 today, had to top up the water again with 1.5 liter of 6.0 pH water, which brought the pH up to 5.9. She is still stretching quite a bit right now. Also did my first defoliation today, I removed a ton of leaves but it looks like barely anything was removed because there so much foliage 😅. Day 49 pH got down to 5.7 today. It keeps surprising me to see how much she drinks in one day. Was able to top up the bucket with almost 2 liters again. Made the water 6.1 pH which brought the pH in the bucket back up to 5.9.

---------------------------------- ~SEEDSMAN PEYOTE FORUM~ ---------------------------------- Characteristics BREEDER/BRAND: Seedsman GENETICS: GSC Forum Cut x Peyote Purple VARIETY: Indica / Sativa FLOWERING TYPE: Photoperiod SEX: Feminized THC CONTENT: 20%+ GROWS: Indoors, Outdoors FLOWERING TIME: 65 days MEDICAL CONDITIONS: Glaucoma, Headaches, Migraines, Stress MEDICINAL PROPERTIES: Yes EFFECT: Powerful __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~🤩This run is part of a Seedsman Seeds sponsored PEYOTE FAMILY COOPERATIVE GROW, I'm also cultivating a Peyote Gorilla and Peyote Zkittles that each have their own diaries.💚~ 'Peyote Forum is an Indica-sativa hybrid cross between the legendary taste sensation Forum Cookies, a phenotype of GSC (Girl Scout Cookies), and the highly potent Peyote Purple cannabis strains. This is a must-have strain for your collection which produces very high THC content.. Forum Cookies is a 75% sativa strain which retains the qualities of the original Girl Scout Cookies while adding extra cerebral sativa effects. Despite the dominance of sativa the buds it produces are very dense and rich in resin-exuding trichomes which glisten against the forest green bud-leaves and orange pistils. Some plants may display purple colors in the buds and smaller leaves at maturity. While yields aren't enormous they are certainly decent and the sheer quality more than makes up for this fact. Flowering takes 65 days give or take. Flavors are pungent and similar to the original GSC showing a pungent Skunk character with notes of nuts and sweet spices and suggestions of earth and pine. THC production will vary between 19 - 28% depending on conditions, lighting intensity and the skill of the grower. The effect is physically relaxing while offering a cerebral twist which is uplifting, relieving stress while also helping with the symptoms of glaucoma, migraines and headaches. Peyote Purple, however, is an Indica-dominant strain with 90% Indica genetics. Its ancestry can be traced from a single purple phenotype which was back-crossed for several generations in order to stabilize its qualities. This plant takes 8 - 9 weeks of flowering before it is ready to harvest producing average yields of way-above-average weed. The THC content is very high with plants reaching between 18 - 28%. Its name is attributed to its headiness as this Indica offers some pronounced cerebral effects with a relaxing yet uplifting high which can leave smokers sleepy and somewhat unfocused with heavier use. Therapeutically it is recommended for the treatment of chronic pain, cramps, Insomnia, muscle spasms and stress. Brought together in Peyote Forum growers can expect some very potent, tasty dank buds with high levels of THC and an uplifting high.' *description credit to Seedsman Seeds __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ THE SETUP: ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with de-chlorinated water with SuperThrive added then ph'd to 6.0 @ 80℉ ~Grown 100% organic in 10g fabric pots with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium amended with 2tbs/g of Down To Earth 4-4-4 / 2 cups/g of Earthworm Castings / 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Bat Guano, 3/4 cup of Down To Earth Azomite and 1 tsp/g Down To Earth Fish Bone Meal. ~24hr light cycle during Germination / 19/5 light cycle for Vegetation and 12/12 for Flower ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and weekly Compost Tea's. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ WEEKLY UPDATES: 10/4- Week Eight of flower is here and we're almost ready to wrap thing up with this girl! Her flowers are continuing to bulk up and are covered in glistening trichomes. She appears to be starting to fade which is exactly what I'm hoping to see, meaning that she's just about used up the nutrients in her medium. I watered today with 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was then ph'd to 6.6 @ 72℉ turned her pot and shot a few pictures of her. 10/6- Today I watered her with 1.5g of her usual straight de-chlorinated water that's ph'd to 6.5 @ 72℉ and turned her pot. She's definitely starting to fade, is still stacking her flowers, bulking up and has an incredible amount of trichomes which I'm beginning to monitor daily. 10/8- The routine of watering every other day continues like clockwork. Yesterday was a 'no water' day and I did a basic check over of the plant, removed a couple of yellowed lower leaves and turned her pot. Today she got the usual 1.5g of straight de-chlorinated water that's ph'd to 6.5 @ 72℉ and had her pot turned. I've also begun to check her trichome development with a digital USB microscope to try to identify the ideal harvest time which will be in the next 12-14 days +/-. 10/10- Well, Week Eight has come, gone and has been a trial once again of my patience with this Ten Week cultivar! She's beginning to really get frosty now and I know from experience, good things come to those who wait... then wait a bit more. I anticipate that she's not going to make the 65 days in flower 'suggested' by the breeder and will probably go a bit longer, closer to 70 +/- days, but we'll have to see what her trichomes have to say! I've cut the wattage back on the HLG 650R to 500w at the wall now to simulate the way that sunshine becomes weaker as fall approaches due to the lower angle of the sun in the sky. This helps outdoor plants to know that winters on the way and they need to hurry up and complete their life cycle. Cutting the wattage back creates the same effect on the indoor plants, especially when coupled with lowered temperatures in the tent. I have also noticed that her water uptake has slowed. After her heavy watering on the 8th, her pot still had some weight to it and she was looking great so I went ahead and skipped watering her today, watering her tomorrow at lights on with her usual. Next week promises to be exciting so don't forget to check in! Harvest time is right around the corner and I'm getting stoked to see the results! 😎🙏💚 ~Thanks for stopping in! This epic run is in the home stretch with harvest fast approaching...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~

Do not pay attention to the temperature on the thermometer in the middle, it lies by a couple of degrees. I have a good thermometer on top of the box that shows the temperature. Day 29: After a terrible fracture, we see that the plant is beginning to recover. I'm honestly disappointed because it makes it very difficult for me to train mainlining and it will also increase the amount of time it takes to grow. Day 30: It looks much better already, I could superprune the right branch, but I don't want to stress it. I will try to bend the right branch harder, I will bend the left one a little in the morning the next day, maybe early. Day 31: This morning I cut the lower leaves, photo in the evening and continued the LST training after the injury. Photo in the evening. Day 32: I am completely sure that the plant has moved away from the stress, but we can see on the left circle, the right bud (and side) slowed growth. Day 34: I saw traces of salt on the tips of the new leaves, so now I pour water with regular 15 PPM.

Ended up with 12 tops, was aiming for less, but she made the call Didn’t fight it, just shaped it the best I could Airflow’s good, structure’s stable 🛑 No more cuts until post-stretch Pics coming shortly 😘 Flip coming soon — we’ll see how she handles it. 20.06.25 VW9 Switched lighting to 12 hours, may the stretch begin 🤞 22.06.25 VW10 Did a good LST session,made some pics, and came to some conclusions and a small change of plans: Originally planned for 8 mains — long, spaced colas and maybe a couple stronger “titans” if she wanted to go that way. But she’s showing me something else, and I’m not here to fight her — just guide her. Now after stretch, I’m keeping side shoots only if they: Fill real canopy gaps Don’t crowd neighboring tops (minimum 15cm spacing) Aren’t growing into walls or toward the next plant Anything too close, too low, or heading into shade gets removed. No point forcing it. Looks like I’ll finish with 14–16 solid tops, depending on how she settles. I’m just trying to give each one enough light and space to stack properly. No overcrowding, no larf — just letting her do her thing with a bit of structure. Increased Tri Part Micro to 50ml as well. 28.06.25 VW11 one week since I flipped to 12/12 and she is stretching nicely, a bit shy in showing pistils compared to the Fantasy Feast regulars I have in the same tent. 29.06.25 VW11 increased GreenBuzzBloom 30→ 60ml 06.07.25 FW1 TriPart Micro: 50→ 30ml TriPart Bloom: 0 → 20ml Home-made FFJ/FPJ (Watermelon + Pumpkin): 10 → 30ml 12.07.25 FW1 GreenBuzzBloom 60 →40ml, TriPart Bloom: 20 → 60ml, fpj 30→60ml 19.07.25 FW3 Got some bleached tops, been out and about at job interviews and didn't notice a last minute stretch spurt 😭, should recover fine though plenty of time left 😁 22.07.25 FW3 TriPartMicro 30→20ml , TriPartBloom 60→80ml , GreenBuzzBloom 40→50ml 24.07.25 FW3 Cal-Mag 60→40ml 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 🌿 Day to day tasks & actions 🌿 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 19.07.25 FW2 – Fed 5l of #1 → 2l runoff 20.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 → 2l runoff 21.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 → 1.5l runoff 22.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 → 1.5l runoff 23.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 → 1.5l runoff 24.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 → 1.5l runoff 25.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 → 1.5l runoff 26.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 50% strength→ 1.5l runoff (*RUNOFF reused for tomato plants) 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 Nutrients in 30L #1 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 TriPart Micro: 10 → 15 → 20 → 30 → 40 → 50ml → 30 → 20ml (0.67ml/L) 🍶 TriPart Grow: 0ml (0.00ml/L) 💧 TriPart Bloom: 0 → 20 → 60 → 80ml (2.67ml/L) 🍶 GreenBuzz Bloom: 10 → 15 → 20 → 30 → 60 → 40 → 50ml (1.67ml/L) 💧 Cal-Mag: 60→40ml (1.33ml/L) 🍶 Home-made FFJ/FPJ (new batch): 10 → 30 → 60ml (2.00ml/L) 💧 pH Down: Citric acid (buxXtrade) 📦 TOTAL: 250ml per 30L 🔬 8.33ml/L 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 ⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️ ✂️ Tools & equipment ✂️ ⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️ ✂️ 2× MarsHydro SP3000 ⚙️ MarsHydro 150mm ACF Ventilator ✂️ Trotec dehumidifier (big unit) ⚙️ Mini no-name dehumidifier ✂️ Kebab skewers (LST – stainless) ⚙️ Wire + roast skewers (LST assist) ✂️ Scissors (HST) ⚙️ Vacuum (for spills & cleanup) ✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️ --- 🍏🍪🌬️🍬🍏🍪🌬️🍬🍏🍪🌬️🍬 Apple Fritter (Kannabia Seeds) 🍏🍪🌬️🍬🍏🍪🌬️🍬🍏🍪🌬️🍬 Species: 50% Indica / 50% Sativa Genetics: Sour Apple × Animal Cookies THC: Up to 25% Effect: Euphoric, relaxing, creative Flavor: Sweet, fruity, pastry notes Flowering: 56–63 days Resistance: High Indoor yield: 450–500g/m² Outdoor yield: 600g/plant Structure: Strong, bushy, dense buds

Swapped the whole nutrient solution to a fresh one. Finally getting some more purple and buds are developing fine. Plant uses around 2 liters of water per day. Just took a few more leafs away for deeper light penetration. Smell is intensifying. Ph around 5.6, 1050ppm ———————— Nährstofflösung einmal komplett gegen frische ausgetauscht. Endlich werden die Blüten etwas mehr purple, entwickeln sich generell gut. Die Pflanze verbraucht ungefähr 2 l pro Tag. Ansonsten nur ein paar kleinere Blätter entfernt, um dem licht tieferes Eindringen zu ermöglichen. Der Geruch wird auf jeden Fall stärker. pH ca 5.6 und 1050ppm

These photos were taking yesterday and I meant to post than but here we are. They seem to be doing well, growth seems to be picking up a bit but I've noticed slight burns and I think I just started nutrients a little bit too early. A new addition to the tent is a 4th seed I planted today, I'm goign to breed the best female and male, hopefully I get two females and one male but well see.

Week 9 .......... Flower Week.........June 6 to 12, 2020 ........ Days 57 to 63 from germination She bulked up more this week and buds are swelling. She has reacted well with Massive and has increased her nodal spacing. Now she needs to work on bulking up more and filling in that spacing😀👍 Switched to Advance Nutrients Overdrive for the PK booster this week.......didn’t realize how much i still have of this and Big Bud so I brought them back into the grow this run😁 Overdrive is a great product, just been trying out a different line last two runs. As you can tell I like to use the supplements😂😂 and it gets a little pricey with the Advanced line. They have some killer products though with Piranha, Tarantula, Voodoo, Sensyzime, Bud Factor X, Overdrive for example. A little more leaf strip at the end of the week to let more light into the middle of her. Focused on the leaves on the inside of her and left a number of the fan leaves on the perimeter of her to help with sugar production. Starting to see some possible nutrient issues forming as she is aging and some of her leaf tips are starting to curl down a bit. There will also be some wind stress on this girls main stem. Red hairs have started so we should be less than three weeks to go and guess at roughly 2 weeks to go. Will be feeding next week but that might be the end......see what the week brings. Hope she will run another three weeks allowing her to fatten up.....hairs are still large and lot are still very white......time will tell🤞👍 Environment has been hovering at 79 degrees and 61 percent humidity for most of the week. Yeast and sugar CO2 in use. Still feel there is going to be trade off battling the pH issues of the pots by feeding her 4.4 water and feed. I have to keep it that low to have a runoff of 6.6pH🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪 Going to start letting the pH drift higher the next couple of days though and give a couple of waterings at 5.6 to ensure she is taking up enough phosphorus and potassium. Now to just ramble........this girl is freaking awesome!! She is the one that captures all my attention right now. Her frost levels are ridiculous for 9 weeks on an auto, in my experience🤩😃🤩 She is certainly at photo period levels compared to girls I have grown and with hopefully at least a couple of weeks still to go to improve.......DAMN!!! The Skywalker I have run from Mephisto were also crazy good for frost levels. Her buds are stacking up gorgeous and getting thicker. Still a lot of long thick white hairs so hope she takes her time and fattens up and not just starts drying and hardening up.......not yet anyway🤞 Her side branches are producing long thick colas and make you instantly smile thinking about possible yields😉🤞 She is one of the nicest plants I have ever grown! The resistance is crazy good as she battles though this high pH crap I have thrown her into. Believe it was an issue with too much Magnesium too early and the fabric from the pots. To battle that I have been hitting her and Killer Kush with heavy watering/feeding everyday at 4.4 ph!!!!!!. runoff from that is 6.7 a day later. As time passes after the feeding the pH is drifting up......heave feed to pull it back down🤪🤪🤪 She has been powering through this and growing very nice at 28” tall......perfect!!! So happy I have 5 more seeds of her. Awesome work Mephisto!!!!! Little more detail: June 6, Day 57 June 7, Day 58 June 8, Day 59 June 9, Day 60 June 10, Day 61 June 11, Day 62 June 12, Day 63 Yeah......its coming......😃😉
