It is officially the waiting game. The impatient weeks where the Ladies appear to be ready but have a week or two to go. My first SCRoG appears successful but the lower buds definitely need more time.

💜 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno B Week 7 | Strong Genetics, Beautiful Consistency Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of the most rewarding aspects of documenting every individual phenotype is seeing just how differently sisters can express the very same genetics. Some stretch a little more. Some flower a little faster. Some develop slightly different branching patterns. Yet every now and then, you find two sisters that seem to be following almost the same blueprint. That's exactly what has happened with Purple Haze Pheno B. She may not be quite as tall as her sister, but looking at them side by side, it's impossible not to appreciate how similar they are. Strong structure. Beautiful colour. Healthy foliage. Balanced branching. To me, that's a wonderful sign of stable, well-selected genetics. 🌱 One Project. One Environment. Twelve Unique Stories. If this is your first time following the diary, welcome! This entire grow is part of my ongoing 8×8 Adventure, where twelve different cultivars are being grown together using the 12/12 From Seed technique. From the very first day, every seed has received exactly the same opportunity. • The same lighting schedule • The same Plagron nutrition • The same AutoPot irrigation system • The same Future of Grow lighting • The same TrolMaster-controlled environment • The same temperatures • The same humidity No plant receives special treatment. No individual feeding. No different environmental conditions. The only variable inside this room... ...is genetics. Watching those genetics unfold week after week continues to be one of the most enjoyable parts of this entire project. 🌿 Healthy Plants Build Great Harvests Purple Haze Pheno B continues to impress me with her overall health. She carries herself with confidence. Her leaves are broad, vibrant and beautifully green. Every branch feels sturdy. The canopy remains nicely balanced without becoming overcrowded. She may not be the largest plant in the room, but she's certainly far from the smallest. Instead, she's developing into a wonderfully proportioned plant that seems perfectly comfortable in her environment. Sometimes growers become too focused on height. Personally, I care much more about overall health. Healthy roots. Healthy leaves. Healthy branches. Everything else is built on that foundation. And this lady is giving me every reason to smile. 🌸 The Flowers Continue Their Journey Week 7 marks another important step in her flowering development. Across every growing tip, fresh white pistils continue emerging from small clusters of calyxes. Those white hairs, known as pistils, are the female reproductive organs of the flower. Outdoors they exist to capture pollen. Inside the grow room they become one of the clearest signs that flowering is progressing exactly as nature intended. Beneath those pistils sit the calyxes. Each tiny calyx is one of the individual building blocks that eventually forms the finished flower. As the coming weeks unfold, more calyxes will develop, stack together and gradually swell, transforming these delicate flowering sites into the dense, resin-coated colas we're all hoping to see. The foundation she's building now will determine the harvest she'll produce later. 🍃 Gentle Training, Natural Development One thing I've continued throughout this grow is allowing the plant to keep as many healthy leaves as possible. Rather than aggressively defoliating, I've relied mostly on careful leaf tucking to expose developing bud sites while allowing the plant to keep producing energy naturally. Healthy fan leaves are incredibly valuable. They're responsible for capturing light and converting it into the energy needed to build flowers. When the canopy already has excellent airflow and good light penetration, there's often little reason to remove perfectly healthy foliage. Sometimes the smartest thing we can do as growers is simply let the plant do what it evolved to do. 💧 Feeding for Flower Development As flowering progresses, nutritional demands naturally begin shifting toward flower production. This week's feeding schedule includes: • Terra Bloom – 2 ml/L Provides the phosphorus and potassium needed to support healthy flower development and continued growth. • Power Buds – 1 ml/L Helps encourage the plant to transition its energy toward producing more flowering sites. • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L A bloom enhancer designed to support flower density, resin production and overall plant performance during the later stages of flowering. • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Supports the plant's natural production of sugars and aromatic compounds that contribute to flavour and terpene development. • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L Contains enzymes that help break down dead root material, keeping the root zone healthy and improving nutrient availability. • pH adjustment using pH Plus and Lemon Kick Maintaining the correct pH ensures nutrients remain available for efficient uptake throughout the flowering cycle. Every plant in the room receives this exact same feeding schedule, allowing each phenotype to respond according to its own genetics. 💡 Lumiflora Under-Canopy Lighting Another exciting part of this project continues to be the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting. Traditional grow lights naturally favour the upper canopy, leaving lower flowering sites with much less usable light once plants become dense. Under-canopy lighting helps reduce that imbalance. Its goal isn't to replace the main fixture. It isn't a miracle product that suddenly doubles yields overnight. Instead, it provides additional light to the lower parts of the plant, helping secondary flowering sites remain productive while reducing the need for excessive defoliation. As the flowers continue developing over the coming weeks, I'm looking forward to seeing just how much difference this extra layer of illumination makes. 🌡️ A Stable Environment Makes Everything Easier Like every plant in this room, Purple Haze Pheno B continues benefiting from stable environmental conditions. Current grow room conditions include: • Flower Week 7 • Height: 100 cm • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • pH: 5.8 • EC: 1.95 mS/cm • Solution temperature: 24°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 636 ppm Stable conditions allow the plants to dedicate their energy toward growing flowers instead of constantly adapting to environmental changes. Consistency truly is one of the biggest advantages a grower can provide. 📷 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs capture a phenotype that looks wonderfully comfortable in her environment. The close-up images highlight healthy clusters of fresh white pistils emerging from every flowering site, while the wider photographs showcase her balanced branching and exceptionally healthy foliage. Comparing her with her sister has been fascinating. They're clearly individuals. Yet they're also remarkably similar, which speaks volumes about the quality and stability of the Purple Haze genetics from Zamnesia. Sometimes consistency is every bit as exciting as dramatic variation. 🔮 Looking Ahead During the coming week I expect flowering to continue accelerating. The stretch should gradually begin slowing, while the calyxes continue stacking and the first real signs of bud bulk begin appearing. I'm also excited to continue observing the effect of the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting as the canopy fills out and lower flowering sites receive additional illumination. If she continues growing the way she has so far, I expect another week of calm, healthy progress rather than explosive change. And honestly... I'm perfectly happy with that. Healthy plants don't need to rush. They simply keep improving one day at a time. 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Projects like this remind me every single week that growing isn't about forcing plants to become identical. It's about giving every phenotype the same opportunity and appreciating the unique story each one chooses to tell. Purple Haze Pheno B continues proving that healthy, balanced growth is something worth celebrating all on its own. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can document their journeys, learn from one another and build this incredible community. 🌱 Zamnesia for providing the outstanding Purple Haze genetics behind this phenotype hunt. 💜 Plagron for supplying the nutrition supporting every stage of this grow. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light powering this entire project. 🌿 TrolMaster for maintaining the stable environment that allows every phenotype to perform at its very best. ✨ Lumiflora for bringing an exciting new dimension to this grow through their innovative under-canopy lighting technology. And finally... Thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, asking questions and sharing this journey with me. Every week these plants continue teaching me something new. And Purple Haze Pheno B is reminding me that sometimes the most impressive plants aren't the ones growing the fastest... They're the ones growing beautifully every single day. Growers Love! 💜🌿

Good growth. Look - 10cm in a week. Lower leaves slowly dying off and the brown spots have spread to some of the lower leaves but it's looks okay ish. Got an autopot and seeing how that goes. Should have waited till the next grow however I always get carried away.

debido a quemaduras que encontre en las plantas el dia 14/06, dia 29 desde germinacion, debi regar con cal max, ya que creo que hay falta de calcio - magnesio. aplique 1.2 ml por litro de agua. no creo que sea exceso de ferti ya que todos riegos se han preparado con la dosis minima que indica. se sigue regando con 0.4 L cada 48hrs una tecnica que he hecho es ir acomodando o doblando las hojas hacia abajo dando prioridad a los bracitos de cada planta. Dia 30: riego de agua 600 ml de agua Dia 32: todas las plantas en floracion Aplicamos solo tek groow ya que las manchas en las plantas se debian a falta de azúfre lo concluimos con un grupo de amigos todos growers y un agrónomo. Por que queremos continuar con la tabla de grotek nutrients y el domingo dia 34 aplicar blossom blaster

420Fastbuds-FBA2505 I'm excited as it's tester time. Germination week is complete. I planted 3 seeds and had all 3 sprout within 48hrs of being in the soil. I do soak them for 48hrs in a glass of water before planting. I can't wait to see what the weeks to come will have in store. Happy Growing

Prima raccolta della mia vita, molto soddisfatto, dopo una settimana in flush ho deciso di tagliare in quanto i tricomi stavano diventando ambrati, dopo questo ciclo sicuramente ho capito l'importanza del Lollipoping e sicuramente al prossimo saprò come valutare la gestione

-Tag 61 Heute haben wir leider feststellen müssen das sie ein Zwitter ist und sehr viele Männliche Blüten entwickelt hat. Zum Glück haben wir es rechtzeitig gemerkt, denn sie stand direkt neben unser Membrana die auch schon in der Blüte ist.... Schade das wir sie vernichten mussten und sie nicht probieren konnten

This is the last post with mid quality pictures and video since I will be going home soon 😀. It is a bit rainy back home so she has to be under a roof or inside a lot of the time. The nutes will be upped to 4ml/l for both the grow and the bloom nutes.

28/04/2021 Ya comenzaron a comer muy bien! La semana que viene se agregan unas galponeras y luego se trasplanta a la cantela. Teniendo en cuenta la luna, estaríamos trasplantando el jueves o viernes de la semana próxima. 03/05/2021 Tres plantas de las mas viejas comenzaron a amarillentas un poco, se estima que fue por una alta temperatura el fin de semana. Veremos que sucede mañana al aplicar el combo de MEN de viejo brujo.

🌸 Week 21 Update (Flower – Week 4) Another steady week in the garden 🌿✨. Red Hot Violet continues to thrive 🔥💜 stacking up nicely with frosty buds ❄️🌸 and that signature rich aroma filling the space 🍇🌿. She’s clearly loving her environment 🌞💨 and showing no signs of slowing down 📈. Amaretto Sour 🍋 is still hanging in there 💪 though a bit overshadowed under the canopy 🌳😅. Haven’t separated them yet still planning the water separation method 💧

09/04 - So I'm germinating in a Root Riot pellet which was soaked in 5.5pH'd water. Should be up in a couple of days - check back!! Thanks so much to @SwissKush and @Hashy for the guidance and the courage to try this new way of growing - at least new to me! For 70+ years, I've only grown things in soil but a day not learning something new is a day wasted... and no, that is NOT a picture of me in that meme! LOL! 09/07 - I HAVE A ROOT!!!! The cotelydon has yet to make an appearance, BUT I HAVE A ROOT!!!!! She will be set on the bucket this morning to continue her journey. And she's now in the bucket, air pump is on, water at 5.8pH.. This afternoon, the seedling broke through and I removed most of the cling film covering the pot... I can't wait to see how much she grows over night!! YAY!!!! Talk about "FAST buds" ... WOW! 09/08 - Added a few more clay pieces and gave the seedling 1tsp water twice today. Bucket only needed about 1/4 gallon to top up to just under the pot... 09/09 - moved her into her new home and all is well. She had been stretching a little too much for my liking when she had to share the light with my other FastBuds grow which are well into flower... moving her to her OWN home now allows me to get the light closer to her and she's appreciative! 09/10 - I didn't get to take a pic of her on Day 3 - completely slipped my mind! She is soon going to take off - her new home is a funky little space that measures APPROXIMATELY 32"x32"x7' - more than enough room for her to grow as big as she wants! 09/11 - Day 5 of this little one's life... and she's getting bigger and bigger... can't wait for her roots to hit the water! I'm loving the Root Riot - gives her good nutrition to help her grow in this early stage.. Shout out to @FastBuds - this one's going to be GREAT!!! 09/12 - Day 6 and tomorrow, I get to add another week to this diary! But what I REALLY want is for her roots to hit the water! I can't wait! I'm ready to replace all the water in my bucket tomorrow and add 1/2 strength of my DaKine420 nutes so that when those roots hit the water, there will be something for them to latch onto and GROW!!!! Love these nutes but can't find anyone who is growing with them here and they don't come up on the list when I'm filling in the weekly nute information. If you want to know more about these nutes, just go to www.dakine420.com - wonderful product that has saved another one of my grows... nothing BUT Dakine420 from here on out!

Things are still going strong! I think this is the official halfway point of flowering, and the plants are in high gear bulking up and focusing on creating big, dense buds. I did notice a few brown spots on all of the Cherry Gorilla’s leaves - most notably CG#3 - I consulted some of my local grow buddies as well as the manager of my local store and they gave me some very detailed instructions - I am going to be adding 1/2 teaspoon of Cal-Mag to my water mix until week 7 AND stop diluting my food mixes - my plants are HUNGRY was the official diagnosis! I think that should be a pretty easy fix and am looking forward to the results. So I am told, I should be able to see results from the Cal-Mag flush within a week or so. Also - I was also given some words of encouragement from some long timers who saw the videos of my tent, and they are saying everything looks great and I should be proud! Again - super stoked on the progress. Planning on a big defoliation after next water to get the girls focusing mostly on the flowers, and significantly removing all of the newly developed undergrowth and under canopy buds. Stay tuned for more updates! Appreciate the views, likes and follows!

About 3weeks left.. No problems after Nitrogen and some P deficiencies.. As a new grower best things I have picked up is not be afraid to make mistakes do tons of research and testing nutrients on a separate dummy plant, have fun patience and learn everyday.
