On day 54 I washed roots 🚿🚿 days 55 and 56 without irrigation of water or nutrients 😋. Day 57 the princesses are very well 😍 humidity 38-40% temperature 26ºC, 15% of the tricomas are already amber color 👏🏻👏🏻💪 this is about to candy 😆😋

This week I only watered them with water and aloe vera. They are growing, but slower than I expected, but that's okay. I think I'll leave them for another two weeks before flipping them for flowering.

Her growth this week was extraordinary. The extra hours of light works. I will continue her in veg for another 3 weeks. Hoping she is ready before the end of November.

Oggi ho tagliato la pianta e lo messa a seccare in box a seccare purtroppo ho dovuto toglierla un po prima per motivi di vicinato ma non male Da umida ha fatto 21 grammi mi aspetto 7g come conclusione

Hello growmies, welcome to week 3! 🍪 💜 Foliar sprayed with Nutrispray on day 20. 💦Potted later that day.. Watered on day 17 and after potting. 💧 Thanks @Green_Buzz_Nutrients for sponsoring my grow, those products really do their job! 💚 If you want to give them a try, there's a generous discount code in my setup description. ⬇️ Thanks @SensiSeeds for the opportunity, let's do this!! 🚀 💚 🖤 _______________________________________________________________________________________ Purple Cookie Kush Feminized Seeds [Girl Scout Cookies x Purple Kush] Purple Cookie Kush Feminized seeds come from two well-known strains, Girl Scout Cookies and Purple Kush. The 60% indica / 40% sativa heritage leads to a well-balanced hybrid flower. Flavours range from grapes to sandalwood, and the terpene profile is a concoction of many complimentary aromas. Purple Cookie Kush Feminized is a short plant with good yields. Bud formation is dense, similar to many Kush strains. About Purple Cookie Kush Feminized Purple Cookie Kush Feminized takes the hottest GSC genetics and mashes them with a Purple Kush cultivar that was hand chosen for this project. No corners were cut in creating and selecting the right breeding stock for this fantastic strain. The result is a well-balanced hybrid that retains key qualities from its lineage. The Purple Kush parent of Purple Cookie Kush Feminized has a lot to contribute, as evidenced by the plant morphology. The compact nature and sturdy branching can be attributed to those indica-dominant genetics. Another area that the indica influence is evident is in the terpene profile, which includes scents of spicy hashish and earthiness. GSC contributes selected indica traits to Purple Cookie Kush Feminized, but the sativa side of the genes also had an impact. Complex, fruity expressions are detectable in both the mouth and nose of this strain. Before harvesting, during the last few weeks of flowering, growers will notice pleasant scents with floral notes lingering in the garden area. Growth pattern of Purple Cookie Kush Feminized Purple Cookie Kush Feminized seeds grow into a plant that represents in appearance both sativa and indica inheritance. Because this is a feminized strain, growers will not need to sex the plants at the early stages of flower and can accurately anticipate yields knowing that all plants will be flower-producing. Purple Cookie Kush Feminized has sturdy branches, similar to its GSC parent. The strong branches can support the weight of flower growth through harvest. The plant itself is stocky with a compact stature. This is attributed more to the Purple Kush influence. Due to the lower profile and many branches, defoliation is beneficial at various stages of growth. Indoor growers with a controlled climate report final heights in the 120 - 140 cm range. Purple Cookie Kush Feminized finishes flowering in a quick 50-60 day window, which is a distinctly indica quality. Outdoor growers in temperate / Mediterranean climates have seen plants reach over 160 cm with ideal weather. The bud formation of Purple Cookie Kush Feminized is similar to the popular Kush structure. Flowers are dense and compact. The buds are a mixture of swollen, trichome-covered bracts with dark forest-green foliage below. During the last weeks of flowering, the GSC influence adds purple hues to the vegetation. Purple Cookie Kush Feminized is a solid-performing, easy-to-maintain plant with good yields. It is not difficult to achieve the optimal indoor climate, and yields of 425 - 475 grams per m² are possible in these conditions. The ideal outdoor environment will have moderately warm weather and a small percentage of rain within the growing season. Growers in those regions have reported yields reaching 550 grams per plant, sometimes even more! Common plant training techniques are not crucial to the success of this robust, sturdy plant, but some growers looking to maximize yields will use them. Techniques that have been used with great success in canopy control include SOG, SCROG, Supercropping, and Lollipopping. Purple Cookie Kush Feminized handles them all without skipping a beat. Effects, taste and smell of Purple Cookie Kush Feminized The effects of Purple Cookie Kush Feminized usher in a more relaxed and easy-going day than most. It has the benefit of merging both indica and sativa attributes. Euphoric and uplifting effects are associated with sativa cultivars, and these effects are precisely how the Purple Cookie Kush Feminized experience begins. Blissfully distracted from the fast-paced world, thoughts shift to creative endeavours and inspirational goals. As these feelings are front and centre, a mild buzz begins radiating from the inner core. Soon, the indica-leaning effects are felt. Effects turn towards the loosening of tense muscles, the easing of minor aches, and an embracing full-body stone. The flavour profile of Purple Cookie Kush Feminized is almost like a full-course meal. The pairing of flavours is unique and somehow works perfectly. The taste of fresh peeled grapes sits well with the coffee and caramel elements. The indica genetics once again show their dominance with undertones of earthiness and spicy sandalwood to complete the flavour profile. Purple Cookie Kush Feminized has an unmistakably loud grape smell. This trait is not commonly seen in cannabis, but it is fully displayed with this strain. The remainder of the terpene profile is what many would consider the finer aromatic qualities of the GSC strain. Scents of spicy hashish float through the air, complementing the grape aroma whenever the jar is opened. Background notes of earth and sandalwood add another enjoyable layer to the terpene profile. https://sensiseeds.com/en/research/purple-cookie-kush-feminized?sqr=purple%20cookie _______________________________________________________________________________________ Setup: 140x70x200 cm Spiderfarmer tent 2x Monkey 16W fans (not oscillating) 1x Secret Jardin 30W 1x box fan 50W oscillating (on lowest level) LED Full Spectrum 320W AGLEX AGL-320W-MA 5,6 kg foldable, dimmable 864 pieces Samsung LH301H 864umol/s 2,7umol/J full spectrum white + RED 660nm + IR 740nm wavelength range 380-780nm covering 3x4ft Green Buzz Nutrients https://greenbuzzliquids.com/ ❗ Use code GD42025 for generous 25% discount (for orders of minimum 75€) Biobizz Lightmix + coco + wormcastings + perlite Carbon Active Granulate Filter 125/360 cm³/h PrimaKlima exhaust EC 125-400/240 cm³/h

So I have started the plant in a rockwool cube. Updates to follow

Well this girl has recovered very well she was doing just horrible because I had the lights to low at 22" when 34" was way better . These led lights had me thinking I could go lower then I could ... She is doing great and will be getting the nutrients she needs I'm feeding her a 100% Canadian and organic line that got from a local company .. getting excited to see where we are next week and about do her transplant too. Cheers and thanks for following along .. canna family

Despite being a dwarf, despite all the shortcomings and damage it has suffered, I cannot complain about the buds it has produced. I am satisfied with my little bonsai. ❤️

Ready to harvest

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno A Week 10 | Her Story, Her Rhythm, Her Spotlight 🌸🔥 Hello everyone, and welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And here we are again with our Cash Express Pheno A. She's still doing exactly what she's been doing throughout this journey: Growing beautifully at her own rhythm. She's not trying to be the fastest. She's not trying to be the biggest. She's not trying to follow anybody else's schedule. She's simply becoming more and more herself with every passing week. And honestly... I really like that. Because when you have twelve different genetics sharing one room, the most interesting plants aren't necessarily the ones doing exactly what you expected. Sometimes it's the ones that look at your expectations and say: "Nope. I'm going to write my own story." 😂 And that's exactly what Cash Express Pheno A is doing. So this week, let's give her the attention she deserves. Let's look at her development, those beautiful white hairs, her individuality, and of course... let's talk photons. 💡🌱 Because this girl deserves some light on her story. ──────────────────────── 🌸 Week 10 – Still Doing It Her Way Cash Express Pheno A is currently sitting around 72 cm. And once again, the number itself doesn't really tell the story. She's not particularly tall. She's not trying to become the biggest plant in the room. But when you actually stop and look at her... there's something happening. The structure is becoming increasingly defined. The flowering sites are developing. And the plant has that unmistakable feeling of moving further and further into her own expression. She's found her rhythm. And we're letting her keep it. That's one of the things I enjoy most about this entire 8×8 Adventure. We're not trying to make every plant behave the same. We're giving them a shared environment and watching what they do with it. And Cash Express Pheno A is giving us a very clear answer: "This is who I am." And I say... Go for it, girl. 💚 ──────────────────────── 🌸 Those White Hairs Are Becoming Her Signature One of the things I've really started appreciating about this phenotype is the definition of those beautiful white pistils. They're becoming increasingly obvious in the photographs. They stand out against the surrounding foliage, giving the developing flowers a really distinctive appearance. And this is one of those details that becomes much easier to appreciate when you're documenting the plant week after week. At first, they're just tiny white hairs appearing around the early flowering sites. Then suddenly... you start seeing them everywhere. They become part of the identity of the plant. And with Cash Express, I really like how defined they are becoming. The flowers are developing at their own pace, but there's no mistaking that they're developing. She's progressing. She's building. She's becoming more recognizable every week. And that's what makes following a phenotype from the beginning so rewarding. You don't just see a flower. You see the story of how that flower got there. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Same Genetics. Different Story. This is something I don't think I'll ever get tired of saying. Same genetics do not necessarily mean identical plants. And the 8×8 Adventure has been giving us a front-row seat to that reality. Cash Express Pheno A has her own structure. Her own pace. Her own flower expression. Her own way of occupying the space. Put her beside another phenotype and suddenly the differences become obvious. One might stretch more. Another might branch more. Another might stay compact. Another might develop its flowers differently. And none of those differences necessarily mean one plant is "better." They're simply different expressions. And that's exactly what we're here to discover. Cash Express Pheno A isn't trying to be anybody else. She's making her own thing. And honestly... that's pretty damn cool. ──────────────────────── 💡 Photons – Let's Give Her Something to Work With This week I want to put a little more attention on something that is fundamental to every plant in this room: light. Or, more specifically... photons. 💡 Because when we look at these beautiful flowering plants, it's easy to focus only on what we can see. The flowers. The leaves. The pistils. The structure. But underneath all of that is an incredibly simple relationship. Light provides the energy source that drives photosynthesis. Photons arrive at the leaves. The plant captures that energy. And that energy becomes part of the biological machinery supporting everything we're watching develop. So when I look at Cash Express, I'm not simply looking at a plant underneath an LED. I'm looking at a plant sitting underneath an artificial sun. And every day, we're giving her another opportunity to turn that light into growth. That's pretty amazing when you stop and think about it. ──────────────────────── ☀️ Future of Grow – Our Artificial Sun The Future of Grow LEDs continue providing the primary lighting for the room. And this is one of the parts of the 8×8 Adventure that I particularly enjoy. Twelve different plants. One lighting environment. And then we watch how differently each one responds. The light doesn't tell Cash Express what shape to take. It doesn't tell her how tall to grow. It doesn't tell her how her flowers should develop. It simply provides the energy. The genetics take it from there. And this is why comparing these plants is so interesting. The photons are available to all of them. But every phenotype has its own way of using the opportunity. Cash Express is showing us her answer. And I'm very happy to keep watching. ──────────────────────── 💡 Light Isn't Just About the Top of the Plant Another thing I love about our lighting strategy is that we're thinking about the canopy as a three-dimensional environment. Plants aren't flat. A flower isn't simply sitting directly underneath a light. There are leaves above it. Leaves beside it. Branches at different heights. Flowers facing different directions. Different parts of the plant naturally receive different amounts of light. That's where the additional Lumiflora lighting becomes particularly interesting. By bringing additional illumination into the inner and lower areas of the canopy, we're giving those less-exposed areas another opportunity to receive useful light. It's not about turning the plant into a Christmas tree covered in lights. 😂 It's about thinking about where the plant actually exists in three-dimensional space. Top. Middle. Inside. Below. Every part of the canopy has a different relationship with the light. And Cash Express is another beautiful example of why that matters. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Let the Plant Decide What to Do With the Light This is probably one of my favourite parts of growing. We can provide the environment. We can provide the photons. We can provide water and nutrition. We can manage temperature, humidity and airflow. But then... we have to step back. Because the plant takes over. Cash Express receives the same general opportunity as her sisters. And yet she's developing differently. That's genetics expressing themselves. That's the phenotype writing its own story. And that's why I'm not interested in forcing her to become something she's not. She's already telling me what she is. So I'm listening. ──────────────────────── 💧 Consistency Where We Can Control It We're also continuing to keep the environmental side of the room as consistent as possible. Current conditions are approximately: 🌡️ Day temperature: 29.9°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: ~639 ppm 💦 Watering: ~1.2 L/plant/24h 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🥥 Substrate temperature: 26°C 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 📏 Height: ~72 cm Summer, of course, continues to make temperature management an ongoing little game. One degree up. One degree down. Another warm day. Another slightly cooler day. That's reality. So instead of obsessing over every tiny fluctuation, we're concentrating on maintaining the overall environment as stable as we reasonably can. The things we can control... we control. The things summer decides to control... well... we negotiate. 😂☀️ ──────────────────────── ⚗️ Nutrition – Keep the Plant Comfortable The nutritional strategy remains essentially unchanged. We're continuing with the flowering programme and keeping the solution around: pH 6.0 EC approximately 2.0 mS/cm There's no reason to start changing things simply because another week has passed. Cash Express is growing. She's flowering. She's maintaining good colour. And she's continuing her development. So we're allowing consistency to do its job. Sometimes the best intervention is no intervention at all. ──────────────────────── 🌸 The Flowers Are Becoming More Defined When I look at the photographs this week, one thing really stands out. The flowers are becoming easier to read. The structure is becoming more obvious. The pistils are beautifully defined. And there's a growing sense that these little flowering sites are becoming something much more substantial. She's not rushing there. But she's getting there. And that's enough. This is another reason I love documenting the same plant week after week. If you only looked at her today, you might simply say: "Beautiful flower." But when you compare the photographs from earlier weeks... you can actually see the transformation. And that transformation is the real story. ──────────────────────── 📸 The Camera Finds the Details Cash Express has become one of those plants where the camera really helps me appreciate the little things. From a distance, she's another beautiful flowering plant inside a very busy room. But move closer... and suddenly there's another world. The pistils. The developing flower structure. The leaves surrounding the flowers. The way the branches carry their individual sites. The subtle differences in colour and texture. This is why I keep photographing everything. Because the eye sees the room. The camera sees the details. And together they tell a much better story. ──────────────────────── 🚂 Cash Express Doesn't Need to Hurry I think this is probably the most important thing I want to say about her this week. She's still growing at her own rhythm. And that's okay. There is no race. She's not competing against the plant next door. She's not competing against another phenotype. She's not competing against some imaginary calendar. She's simply moving through her own development. And if that means she takes a little longer to show us what she's capable of... I'm perfectly happy to wait. Because every week she gives us another little piece of the puzzle. And I like the picture we're getting. ──────────────────────── 🔬 Twelve Plants – Twelve Relationships With Light This is where the lighting experiment becomes particularly fascinating for me. The same room. The same general lighting philosophy. The same artificial sun. But twelve different plants interpreting that environment in twelve different ways. Some plants seem to want to reach toward the light. Some remain compact. Some build wide canopies. Some build tall structures. Some flower sites become immediately obvious. Others take their time. The photons are the common language. The genetics write the individual stories. And Cash Express Pheno A is definitely writing hers. She's saying: "Give me the light. Give me the time. I'll show you." So that's exactly what we're doing. 💡🌱 ──────────────────────── 🔮 Looking Ahead The coming weeks should become increasingly interesting. We're entering the stage where the flowers will continue developing their structure and density, while the plant maintains the architecture she's spent the entire grow creating. For now, we're keeping the fundamentals steady: 💡 Future of Grow LEDs providing the main light 💡 Lumiflora supporting the deeper canopy 💧 Consistent irrigation ⚗️ Stable nutrition 🌡️ Controlled environment 🌬️ Good airflow ⏳ And patience No need to complicate things. She's doing what she needs to do. We'll continue watching. ──────────────────────── 💭 Final Thoughts – Give Her the Spotlight Cash Express Pheno A continues to remind me why I love this project. She's different. Not dramatically different. Not trying to scream for attention. But different enough that, week after week, her personality becomes clearer. She's growing at her own rhythm. She's developing beautiful flowers. And those defined white pistils have become one of the details I particularly enjoy about this phenotype. She's making her own story. Her own structure. Her own expression. And our job is simply to give her the opportunity to show it. The photons are there. The LEDs are doing their job. Future of Grow is providing the artificial sun. Lumiflora is helping bring that light deeper into the canopy. The environment is being kept as stable as summer allows. And Cash Express? She's doing what Cash Express does. Slowly. Beautifully. Her way. And that's enough. So this week, I'm not trying to change her. I'm not trying to make her faster. I'm not trying to make her bigger. I'm simply giving her the spotlight. Because she deserves it. 🚂🌸💡🔥 Let's make her shine. ──────────────────────── 🙏 Thank You As always, a massive thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure and taking the time to watch these twelve individual stories develop. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Cash Express genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover what these different expressions can become. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden throughout the journey. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for providing the LEDs powering our artificial sun and giving these girls the photons they need every day. And thank you to Lumiflora for helping us bring additional light into the inner and lower parts of the canopy and allowing us to explore the relationship between the plant and light from another angle. And of course, thank you to everyone following along on GrowDiaries. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person simply stopping by to see how the girls are doing. It all makes this adventure that much more enjoyable. Cash Express Pheno A is still here. Still compact. Still beautiful. Still developing. Still doing things her own way. And I wouldn't want it any other way. Because this isn't about making twelve plants identical. It's about discovering twelve individual personalities. And this girl? She's definitely got one. So let's keep watching. Let's keep photographing. Let's keep giving her those photons. And most importantly... let's make her shine. 🚂🌸💚💡 Until next week... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💚 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿🔥

Week 3 nothing new just LST and water daily

Nice purple colour, Easy to grow, compact buds, cold resistant. But second pheno made a lot of seeds 😓 I dont recommend ThSeeds because the quality isnt that good and I feel like I wasted money and time with that strain. The smell isnt that insane

Week 6 Dec. 9 - Dec. 15, 2019 Dec. 11, 2019 They were moved into the tent late in week 5. They took a couple of days to get back to normal... had some drooping leaves for a couple of days... ended up raising the light to 24", it started out at 18". Continued to LST and some defoliating. Late last week I broke the main stem of ZK #3 attempting to train it toward the edge of the pot. It was hanging by a thread... freaked the hell out, grabbed the closest tape to me, you'll see that in the pic lol. It was a metal tape for duct work hehe. Noticing as the babys get further into flower they are getting THIRSTY, I'm up to watering them about .5 gallon a day. You'll see in the pics I LST'd 2 plants the same and one differently. Regarding this strain I'm not sure what method a working better.

Thursday 16th march day 59 Harvested a couple days earlier then planned as my humidity was getting a bit high and worried about risking mold I decided to chop, have to get a good dehumidifier soon, everything looking lovely, nice and dense with very strong fruity potent smell definitely the best looking plants I have grown to date not the biggest buds but they look quality, chopped plants whole gonna do my best to keep the temp and rh% in the dry room as close 60/60 as I can to get a nice slow dry, 🍁😎 I only took the wet weight from 1 plant back left plant was 270g with large fan leaves removed

did this beautiful girl a topping, depilation, and LST, she feels good 💚
