💜 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 6 | The Legend Begins to Reveal Herself Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! Every week these diaries become a little more exciting. The differences between each phenotype become clearer. Personalities emerge. Growth patterns separate. And some plants begin demanding your attention the moment you unzip the tent. Purple Haze Pheno A has officially become one of those plants. She isn't trying to be the loudest. She simply stands there... Elegant. Confident. Growing exactly the way a classic Haze should. This week she reminded me why some genetics earn legendary status. 🌱 One Experiment... Countless Stories If you're joining this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is built around one simple idea: What happens when every plant receives exactly the same opportunity? Every seed in this room has been grown under the 12/12 From Seed technique. No long vegetative period. No separate flowering room. No individual treatment. Every phenotype receives: • The same light schedule • The same nutrients • The same environment • The same temperatures • The same humidity • The same care The only variable... ...is genetics. And Purple Haze continues proving just how powerful genetics truly are. 🌿 Grace in Every Direction At approximately 88 cm tall, she has become one of the tallest ladies in the entire room. Yet height alone doesn't tell her story. What impresses me most is how balanced her structure has become. The internodes have spaced beautifully. Every branch has found its place. The canopy remains open. The airflow is excellent. Light reaches deep into the plant without needing aggressive defoliation. She almost seems to be building herself. Every day she becomes a little more elegant. A little more refined. Classic Haze architecture is beginning to reveal itself, and it's beautiful to witness. 🌸 Flowers Everywhere You Look This week marks the moment where there's no longer any doubt. Purple Haze has fully entered flowering. Every branch is producing flowers. Every node carries fresh white pistils. The tops continue stacking while secondary branches quickly catch up, creating dozens of future colas across the plant. The stretch hasn't completely finished, but now another transformation begins. The energy that once built stems is gradually shifting toward flower production. Week by week the framework is disappearing beneath an ever-growing collection of buds. And she's only getting started. 🍃 Healthy Leaves Tell an Important Story One of my favourite things about this phenotype isn't actually the flowers. It's the foliage. The leaves are exactly what every grower hopes to see. Large. Rich green. Flat. Healthy. Every fan leaf acts like a perfectly functioning solar panel, collecting energy that will eventually be transformed into dense, resin-covered flowers. Rather than removing healthy foliage unnecessarily, I've continued relying mostly on leaf tucking to expose developing bud sites while allowing the plant to keep producing as much energy as possible. Sometimes patience produces a better canopy than scissors ever could. 💧 Feeding the Next Chapter As flowering progresses, the feeding program continues evolving alongside the plant. This week's nutrient program includes: • Terra Bloom • Power Buds • Green Sensation • Sugar Royal • Pure Zym • Careful pH adjustment for maximum nutrient availability Every adjustment is made gradually. The objective isn't simply feeding bigger flowers. It's supporting the plant while allowing her genetics to express their full potential without unnecessary stress. So far... She's responding beautifully. 🌡️ Stability Creates Great Plants One lesson this project keeps reinforcing is just how important consistency can be. Current environmental conditions remain stable: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • Solution temperature: 22°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 639 ppm When the environment remains consistent, plants can dedicate their energy to growing instead of constantly adapting. That consistency allows every phenotype to show what it's truly capable of. 📷 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs capture a plant beginning to reveal her future. Close-ups highlight fresh clusters of bright white pistils emerging from every flowering site. The wider shots showcase her beautiful Haze structure, with long, elegant branches carrying evenly spaced bud sites from top to bottom. Several photographs focus on the healthy foliage surrounding the flowers, while others document the impressive overall symmetry that continues developing across the canopy. Looking back at previous weeks, it's incredible to see how quickly she's transformed. And somehow... It still feels like she's only just getting warmed up. 🔮 Looking Ahead Over the coming weeks I expect one of the most exciting stages of her journey to begin. The stretch should gradually slow. The flowers will begin swelling. Bud sites that currently look delicate will merge together, forming the long, spear-shaped colas so many growers associate with classic Haze genetics. If she continues following the path she's on today... She has every opportunity to become one of the standout phenotypes of this entire 8×8 Adventure. Not because she's the tallest. Not because she's growing the fastest. But because she's doing everything with remarkable balance. Sometimes that's what truly exceptional genetics look like. 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Every week reminds me why documenting every individual phenotype has been one of the most rewarding projects I've ever undertaken. Each diary tells a different story. Each plant teaches a different lesson. And Purple Haze Pheno A is reminding us that true elegance isn't measured by speed—it's measured by consistency. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can learn, share experiences, and inspire one another. 🌱 Zamnesia for providing the outstanding genetics behind this incredible phenotype hunt. 💜 Plagron for supplying the nutrition supporting every stage of this journey. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light that powers this entire project. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain the stable environment that allows every phenotype to express its full potential. And finally... Thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, asking questions, and growing alongside me. Every week this remarkable lady writes another chapter of her story. And if this week is any indication... I have a feeling we're watching something truly special unfold. Growers Love... and Purple Haze Pheno A is only beginning to show us why legends are remembered. 💜🌿

They were very similar looking plants in early growth, but one of them stretched about 10 inches more than the other. It only weighed a few more grams despite the extra height. They require no special attention at all and produced fairly well, though I'd have liked a bigger yield. The buds are dense and smell amazing. Plant A: 87g Plant B: 94g Final thoughts: Potency: 8/10 Yield: 7/10 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 8/10 Bag-appeal: 8/10 Bud density: 8/10 Special thanks to Spliff Seeds for sponsoring this grow! These are some truly impressive genetics. Fat, frosty delicious buds that keep you high for hours! What more could you ask for!👈😁👍

I let the soil start to dry after a week of just water, hung them upside down for 14 days 18-26°c 60%RH. The tremors got higher than I would like during drying but it is summer!

VIDEO ADDED: DEC 29 2020! -- PHOTOS ADDED: DEC 27 2020! MORE COMING VIDEO?! -- Smell is starting to come down from the fresh cut, definitely has a great look to the bud as the cure goes on, have two 8 gram boveda packs in there after a few days with one that was WAY too big for it 😂 Brought down my Chocolate Mint OG in my other diary right now as well, way more weight to that last plant... probably more than both these Chem Bombs combined, great genetics over @Humboldt_seed_organization 😎 -- PHOTOS ADDED: DEC 23 2020! MORE COMING! -- DEC 19 2020 - Harvest Day Chem-Bomb Auto .. DONE. Step-Brothers ... CHOPPED. Buds.. TRIMMED. Giving them my first bud wash tomorrow! Already juiced the lemon, have the spring water, and off-brand baking soda because COVID has every place sold out of Arm&Hammer 😂 Dale: 50 Grams Wet Buds/Stem 15 Grams Trim/Larf = Total 65 Grams Wet Brennan: 55 Grams Wet Buds/Stem 12 Grams Trim/Larf = 67 Grams Wet Total Wet: 132 Grams (Buds/Stems/Trim) Looks like I'm getting in and around the "1 Ounce per Auto Plant" range with my basic soil/hand feed system. The CMOG from my other diary looks like it will be my first 1OZ plant when it dries. With my past experience of wet buds drying out to about half of bud weight, I'm hoping that they both come in JUST under an Oz a piece. Going to update with more pictures, going to take a couple days to dry and get a good weight and hopefully get somewhere close to the 64 grams of the ONLY sized Boveda packs I have right now 😇 -- UPDATE - Dec 20 2020 - Cure Day 😵😭 i once again got my hopes up by pulling the classic male "over-exaggerating" and all the wet weight came from the main stems. After 3 days or so of drying both plants together came in just under an ounce. The smell is great and I have no doubt it's quality bud but I need to up my density game somehow for sure. New nutrients or better set up, still very low-end with all my equipment as I've just slowly been finding affordable pieces to add as I go. Maybe more light? Feel free to hit me up below with ideas short of switching to a Hydro set up 😹 I can hardly afford my bags of soil so I definitely couldnt keep up with the financial costs of a Hydro set up yet 😓 Have had a few bowls of the dried/uncured bud and it's very nice, clean, and crazy good for being uncured at this point. Just the classic flower taste from the chlorophyll but the pineapple/tropical taste is coming through nice already. Final Stats: 26g Dried Bud 26g Trim -- Thanks for checking in! Will be updating soon and posting more pictures! Throw down a like and/or follow so I can return the favour 🙌 -- IG: @GlazedGrow (DM and let me know you're from Grow Diaries so i can follow back!)

G.23: le piante sono in salute anche se la g.p. ha le foglie un po' basse, non noto carenze, ma penso che abbia bisogno semplicemente di più acqua (al giorno 21 ho dato 300 ml, al giorno 23 600 ml). Controllerò domani per vedere se migliora G.24: le piante hanno risposto bene all'innaffiatura e oggi i vasi erano di nuovo leggeri come ieri, perciò nuova innaffiatura da 500 ml per entrambe. G.27: come dalle foto ho messo un piccolo umidificatore a causa dell'eccessivo caldo (30% u.r.). Le piante crescono bene. Sto mantenendo le quantità di fert più basse rispetto alle volte precedenti e mi sta ripagando con un bel verde delle foglie. Questa settimana le piante hanno iniziato ad avere molta più sete e ad ogni giorno che ho pesato il vaso era sempre leggero. Continuate a seguirmi per nuovi aggiornamenti.

Well, it's finally time for an update, right? And for a newbie like me this week has been quite eventful! 😲 After last week's "Helmet Head" (which I suppose was my fault for not burying the seed deep enough 😱) her leaves started to look twisty, Honestly don't know why that happened but my three hypothesis are: because that's just the way she is, because I didn't properly bury the seed or I made a mistake somewhere else. However I also think she looks pretty and this makes her look quite "special" 👍. In her 6-7th day after sprouting I noticed her leaves started to look even more twisty and she was about to outgrow her cup. I worried and decided that it was the right moment to transplant her. At first I didn't know "how" to do it and all I knew is that I could shock her if I did it wrong (which worried me haha 😨). None of the sites I checked really specified any kind of information regarding how I should prepare the medium for the new plant (just some vague information here and there) so I came with the idea to just water it bit and then "massage" the soil to avoid making it "lumpy" and I feel it did work out well in the end! I feel I didn't shock her much and in her second day she was growing even more as well! Nice! 😍 Next week I'll start feeding Puff with some nutrients but the PPM of the tap water where I live is somewhat high (around 600) and it's electroconductivity is around 1200 us/cm but a lot of growers in here still use it (they just wait for chlorine to evaporate) so I'll try doing the same. I'll use half dose of Biobizz Bio Grow and half dose of another product called Gold Sunshine from Quemanta (which is Cal-Mag with some amino acids) and see how things develop! 😃 I'll try to see if I can make my DSLR take the photos for future timelapses, because my webcam sucks for that job! Thanks everyone for reading 😉

Rainbow melon, a marvelous genetic I’ve never seen such a rigorous plant. I’ve never to plant before so we’ll see how it goes like that but if there’s a chance, I can have fat cola all the way around I’m going to do it has some trouble with her on my first one so a little scared, but we’ll see how she handles it. 🔥🙏

Eccoci di nuovo qui!!! Super eccitato per questa nuova collab con Exotic Seed, team davvero al top, che mi ha dato l’opportunità di testare questa nuova genetica e di condividere i progressi con tutti voi!!! Come sempre partiamo nei bicchieri per poi travasare.. Questa volta verrà svolto tutto sotto la Lumatek Zeus 465 ProC, mi aspetto molto da questo ciclo!! Purtroppo ho perso i file delle scorse settimane e dovrò reiniziare il report da ora scusate per il disagio Pianta davvero incredibile, straborda di resina!!! Sembra nevichi su di essa tutti i giorni, MOSTRUOSA!!! Grazie a tutti per il supporto ❤️🍀🔥

Fed and defoliated to start week 7. The plant looks good, lots of frosty sticky buds, dense and very much on point for this stage of the grow.

So i have decided to harvest tomorrow so this will be my last update of the flowering period of my grow. She's looking like Autumn and has such beautiful colours and extremely strong and fruity scent. i cant wait to try her, i probably could have waited a little longer but considering she was supposed to be an auto and seed to harvest in 10-12 weeks, i think i've done well waiting this long lol. All of the Trichomes are cloudy so i'm up for trying the more energetic heady high, that is supposed to come with harvesting at this stage.

Ganja Farmer AK 2.0 XL Day 47 from sprout Light viparspectra XS 2000 dialed in at 75% intensity watering every other day or every two days The bud structure is growing very differently with this strain. Flowering came a bit later but I did give LST early on which could have delayed flowering. See you all next week! happy growing!

It has been another great week for these Fastbuds ~ Wedding Cheesecake Autos!! Today is day 22 from seed and this upcoming week all 5 will be getting Tied down for LST ! All are getting same veg feed just but make sure if you are using rapid start your gonna have to mix in PH up in your feeds! Light is at same height and is at full power just letting the plants grow into it! Well hope you all enjoy, and please let me know if y’all have any questions I’ll be glad to answer!

Week 5🌸 done, first day of week 6 They are developing beautifully Studio & Rainbow Gelato are heavy stinkers - sweet + gassy It seems like Bruce Banner in the back could get more feeding Will up the volume of water a little in the following week I take out a few leafes here and there, don’t seem to stress them a bit At nighttime it gets pretty cold, 16/17 degrees so some of the pistils tops (Blütenstempel) are getting dark

Girls are loving the light! I was bit worried with the smaller gal and leaves pointing up, but with no sign of light-stress or anything else negative I've taken it as a good sign and they are just thriving so yesssss! I'm prone to want to defoliate as I'm use to growing in a much smaller environment (5 gal bucket lol) but I've been good and have only snipped a handful of leaves that were either blocking other bud-sites or restricting airflow. I cannot wait to see what this harvest brings in, I'm hoping for 3-3.5 oz (85-99grams). Now that they are flowering nicely I'm no longer using Gro, just Micro+Bloom with some calmag and silicate. Happy growing!! 😎

This week there growing vigorously some plans have gained 6-8 inches in past week!! Had to do some pruning and low stress training to keep the light just right. Went ahead and cranked up all the lights to 100% to aid in flowering as well. Enjoying the features of my new Led setup.Have started to tune the nutrients to support flowering. Taking small steps. There are no signs of stress so far. Finally added a dehumidifier to keep moisture at bay, along with a massive exhaust fan.Still have to be patient and let the lady's tell me what they want. 🙂
