🌱 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. 🌱💚

Probably looking at next week for a tentative flush and harvest. Some leaves starting to yellow from maturation, and pistils are getting to where they need to be, with some new white ones still being thrown up on both plants. The smell is strong and exquisite, pungent and sweet. Resin production also looks to be coming along nicely, covering leaves alongside frosty trichomes. Quite a few buds and whole branches have that snow covered look that can’t be beat. Won’t be able to hand water this week so leaving it to the auto waterer with reduced nute concentration. Cheers

sorry for delay but im busy working on it lol this week is phenomenal in size and the lst work well but now i have 5 lady that take the space of 10 lol

She is felling well after topping. Se esta recuperando mejor de lo esperado My wife topped her plant last day third week. plants looks good and we walking ahead MI mujer se ha hecho topping en ultimo momento del tercera semana. entramos bien en la quarta

I’m very happy with the outcome I just hope my drying and curing goes well , if anyone has any tips please let me know

Starting second week, waiting to start LST! Day 10 : Start LST on Girl scout cookies#1 Day 11 : Start LST on Gorilla Glue#1 Day 13 : it's a very hot day, 37^C!

Day 62 lookng good.. really coming along now.. two more weeks.

This week I did a single topping at the 5th node. Along with this I applied low stress training and tucking to expose the new growth. The leaves seem a little dry on this one, think it’s because I needed a little better air movement In that area, rotated fans and adjusted Rh.

She looks so healthy and smell really nice…Her pre flowers are out however I will continue to veg her for a couple months.

The last week went great. This time I didn’t mess anything up, haha. #1 is already pretty ripe... I’ll probably wait until the weekend, maybe a few extra days. #2 is also ripening nicely, no complaints there. Sour Stompers are really great strains, just super fun to grow. The tent smells super sour right now, haha PH5.8 | EC1.4 | DLI55 | VPD1.2-1.5

.

For my first run I am happy with my results even though the yield was very low . The banana cake is frosty and has a great nose on it . The bud has white ash and overall it tastes great . I will be doing another grow soon and Im going switch it up . Going to be a great next grow so don’t miss it .

14cm vertical growth this week. Flowering stretch reducing. Trichome production has started! She's starting to get frosty.

Strawberry AKeil (Serious Seeds) Tag 103 / Blühtag 68 Fast am Ziel 43 cm reif für die Ernte! 🍓🔥 Nach 68 langen Blühetagen steht meine Strawberry AKeil jetzt bei nur 43 cm Höhe kompakt, aber extrem dicht bestückt. Die letzten Tage haben sich die Buds nochmal richtig verdichtet und kaum noch neue Blütenkelche (Calyxe) gebildet. Sie ist klar in der Reifephase angekommen! Heute habe ich nochmal einen genauen Trichome-Check gemacht: 30 % B / 60 % M / 10 % K Genau der sweet spot, auf den ich gewartet habe. Die Köpfchen glänzen fett und harzig, besonders in der Nahansicht sieht man die fantastische Trichomendecke. Dazu diese wunderschöne lila-rote Färbung an den Blütenblättern einfach eine Augenweide! Wie bei den anderen Pflanzen im Zelt lief auch hier der letzte Abschnitt sehr clean: - Über 1,5 Wochen nur klares Wasser - Zu Beginn der 10. Blütewoche nochmal einen leichten Boost mit Top-Max, Acti Vera, Alg-A-Mic und CalMag Der Stickstoff ist inzwischen sehr gut abgebaut, wie man auf den Fotos deutlich an den vielen hellgelben bis goldenen Blättern sieht. Ich habe heute nochmal gezielt die welkesten und unteren Blätter entfernt, um Schimmelrisiko zu minimieren und den Buds noch Licht und Luft zu gönnen. In den nächsten 3 Tagen(länger wirds nicht laufen) darf sie nochmal richtig Sonne tanken, dann verlässt sie als Erste das Zelt. Ich bin extrem gespannt auf den Trockengeruch und das finale Aroma bisher war sie schon im Zelt eine der stärksten Terpene Bomben mit diesem fruchtig-erdbeerigen Profil. Zusammenfassung: Eine sehr kompakte, harzige und aromatische Strawberry AKeil, die trotz etwas kleinerer Statur richtig dicke Buds produziert hat. Der letzte Check morgen oder übermorgen entscheidet den exakten Erntetag. Danke an alle, die mitgefiebert haben! Jetzt kommt der schönste Teil! 💚 Euer Bauer420🧑🏻‍🌾

First week of bloom 💯💚

Hi guys. End of week 8 is here and girls looks gorgeous. Yesterday gave them green sensation for the first time. Short video is added. No problems so far! Keep it growing! One love

Day 23 of flower, 50ish remaining. Alright, another smooth week 😁 Got some sugar forming on the leaves that looks pretty and is getting me excited 😁 I started using the Co2 this week as well as the terpinator. Might invest in an oscillating fan to help distribute the co2 better. Got some colas forming (I counted very roughly 75ish main colas). The leaves also really have that distinctive sativa appearance. The trash basket to hang the co2 is a great idea if your thinking of one in the future. Not much of a smell really yet. I DO have one question this week tho. Should I do a little defoliation on some of the lower fan leaves as its getting quite bushy in there again but I dunno if I should mess around with the buds forming now. Thanks in advance for the help and thanks for following along fam, I really enjoy the chit chattin about the ganja.
