👑 Godfather OG – Pheno B Week 10 | She Knows What She Wants 👑🌿🔥 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And this girl... She just keeps shining. She keeps growing. She keeps asking for more. And somehow, while she's constantly telling me: "I want more!" she's showing me absolutely no signs that she's unhappy. No obvious deficits. No drama in the flowers. No collapse. No hesitation. Just growth. Beautiful growth. 😂👑 Godfather OG Pheno B has become one of those plants that I genuinely enjoy walking up to because every time I look at her, I see something I like. She's dense. She's compact for her structure. She's beautifully green. Her flowers are developing wonderfully. And she has this unmistakable personality that says: "Keep it coming. I'm not finished yet." 😂🌿👑 So this week, once again... the spotlight belongs to her. 🌱 Week 10 – Still On Her Way to Heaven I'm honestly not completely sure where this girl is going. 😂 But I like where she's going. Very much. Every week, she seems to become a little more impressive. The plant is continuing to develop those beautiful flowering structures, and there's a real sense now that she's settling into her own final form. She's not trying to become her sister. She's not trying to become another plant in the room. She's simply becoming Godfather OG Pheno B. And I really like what I'm seeing. There's something very satisfying about watching a phenotype gradually reveal itself. At the beginning, you have an idea. Then the plant grows. Then she branches. Then she flowers. And eventually you start thinking: "Okay... now I see who you are." And with this girl, I'm definitely starting to see it. 🍃 That Beautiful Green One of the things I really love about her right now is the colour. That beautiful, healthy green is still such a strong part of her identity. And what's particularly interesting is how similar the overall colour expression is becoming compared with her sister. They're different plants. Different structures. Different personalities. Different ways of approaching the same environment. But there is still that family resemblance. You can look at them and think: Yep. Those two belong together. And then you look closer... and realize how differently they've interpreted that same genetic potential. That's the magic of phenotypes. Same family. Different story. And Pheno B is writing a very beautiful one. 🌸 The Flowers Are Becoming Serious And now... the flowers. This is where things are getting really exciting. The bud formation is becoming increasingly defined, and there's a beautiful density developing throughout the plant. She's no longer just carrying flowering sites. She's building flowers. Real structure. Real volume. Real character. And the photographs make that particularly obvious. The individual flowers are becoming easier to distinguish, while the surrounding foliage is creating that beautiful contrast between green leaves and developing floral structures. She's got a lot happening. And I love it. There's something about a plant reaching this stage where you stop looking at individual branches and start seeing the whole thing as one coordinated flowering structure. That's where she is heading now. And honestly? She's looking fantastic. 👑 Demanding Doesn't Mean Unhappy Now let's talk about her appetite. Because this girl is still demanding. 😂🍽️ She continues asking for more. And she's certainly one of the plants that makes me pay attention to how much she's consuming. But here's what I really like about the situation: She's not showing me obvious signs that she's struggling. She's not throwing up warning flags everywhere. She's growing. She's flowering. She's maintaining that beautiful colour. She's developing density. She's continuing to progress. So her appetite is simply part of her personality. Some plants are happy with a little. Some plants want seconds. Godfather OG Pheno B apparently wants to know whether there's dessert. 😂👑🍰 And honestly... if she keeps looking like this, I'm not going to complain about her appetite. She's putting those resources to work. 💡 She's Catching Photons Like She Means It And once again, we have to talk about the invisible workers in this room: photons. Every day, the lights come on. Photons begin moving through the canopy. And this girl is ready. She's got a substantial amount of healthy foliage positioned throughout her structure, giving her plenty of opportunity to intercept that light. The photons arrive. The leaves capture what they can. And the plant uses that captured energy to support everything happening inside her. Growth. Maintenance. Development. Flower formation. All those beautiful things we're able to see with our eyes are connected to something we can't see at all. Light energy. And Godfather OG Pheno B looks like she's taking full advantage of it. 💡🌿 She's not just sitting underneath the lights. She's using them. ☀️ A Three-Dimensional Canopy This is also where I really appreciate the lighting philosophy we've been using throughout the 8×8. The main Black Series LEDs provide the primary overhead illumination. But the canopy isn't a flat surface. It's a three-dimensional environment. Leaves are positioned at different heights. Branches move through different levels. Flowers develop at different angles. And that's where the additional inner and lower-canopy lighting becomes interesting. We're trying to get useful photons into places that naturally receive less direct illumination from above. Not simply: "More light everywhere." But rather: "How can we make better use of the space this plant has created?" And Pheno B has created some beautiful space. She's dense. She's compact. She's structured. And she's carrying flowers throughout that structure. So those photons have plenty of work to do. 😂💡🌿 🌿 Dense, But Still Her Own Shape One thing I particularly like this week is that she's becoming denser without losing her identity. She's not a completely flat canopy. She's not a wall. She's not trying to imitate anybody else. She's got her own architecture. And now that the flowers are becoming more developed, that architecture is becoming even easier to appreciate. The structure she created earlier in the run is now supporting the flowering phase. That's one of the most rewarding parts of watching a plant through an entire cycle. You see the decisions she made earlier... and eventually you get to see what those decisions become. Godfather OG Pheno B built this structure. Now she's filling it. And she's doing a beautiful job. 💨 Environment – Let the System Work As always, the environment remains an important part of the bigger picture. We're continuing with the same overall room strategy rather than constantly changing things around individual plants. The room is sitting around: 🌡️ Day temperature: ~29°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~25°C 💧 Relative humidity: ~60% ⚗️ pH: ~6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 💦 Solution temperature: ~25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~26°C 💨 CO₂: ~639 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 💧 Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h And once again, the important part isn't simply looking at the numbers. It's looking at what the plant does with them. And Pheno B keeps telling us: "I'm good. Keep going." So that's exactly what we're doing. ⚗️ Feeding – She Keeps Asking for More The shared flowering nutrition strategy remains: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ Lemon Kick / pH adjustment as required The current solution remains around pH 6.0 and approximately 2.0 mS/cm EC. And yes... she still looks like she'd happily eat more. 😂 She's one of the phenotypes where I really notice the difference between simply providing nutrition and watching how the plant actually responds to it. She's consuming. She's growing. She's developing. She's maintaining her colour. And she's continuing to build flowers. That's why I'm interested in her. She's demanding... but she's also performing. And there's a big difference. 🌸 The Sister Comparison I also really enjoy looking at Pheno B alongside her sister. Godfather OG Pheno A has her own personality. She has been demanding. She's hungry. She's intense. She's got that Queen energy. 😂👑 But Pheno B has a slightly different expression. She's demanding too... but somehow she feels more composed about it. She doesn't seem interested in making a dramatic announcement. She just keeps growing and quietly says: "More, please." 😂 And then she goes back to work. That's the beautiful thing about having both phenotypes in the same room. The environmental baseline stays similar. The genetic expression changes. And suddenly those differences become visible. You don't have to imagine the comparison. They're right there beside each other. Two sisters. Two interpretations. Two stories. 📸 Behind the Lens I really like the photographs of this girl this week. The wider shots show the overall structure. The closer photographs bring out those developing flowers. And the combination of green foliage and increasingly defined buds makes her particularly photogenic right now. There are plants where the camera has to work hard to find the story. This isn't one of them. 😂📸 You point the camera at her and... there's the story. Flowers. Structure. Leaves. Light. Density. And that beautiful colour. The closer you look, the more details start appearing. That's one of my favourite things about documenting this adventure. The plants are changing gradually. But photographs freeze a moment. Then you put two weeks beside each other... and suddenly you realize how much has happened. 🔬 She's Becoming Very Easy to Recognize At this point, I don't think I'd have much trouble picking this phenotype out of the room. There's a recognizable character developing. The structure. The colour. The density. The flowering pattern. The way she carries herself. It's all starting to come together. That's what phenotype hunting is really about for me. It's not simply finding the plant that grows the biggest. It's discovering those little combinations of characteristics that make one plant stand apart from another. And Pheno B is definitely standing apart. She's becoming herself. 🌿 No Need to Force Her And once again, I'm not interested in forcing this girl to become something she isn't. She's already telling us what she wants to do. She's growing. She's building. She's staying beautiful. She's consuming resources. She's catching photons. She's filling her space. So my job is mostly to observe and make sure the environment continues supporting that process. Sometimes the best cultivation decision is intervention. Sometimes it's adjustment. And sometimes... it's simply: "She's doing great. Leave her alone." 😂🌱 This feels like one of those weeks. Let her work. 💡 Photons, Leaves, Flowers... The Whole Chain I think this is also one of the most beautiful things about the way we're documenting the 8×8. We can talk about photons as an abstract concept. Invisible particles of light moving through the room. But then you look at a plant like Godfather OG Pheno B. You see the leaves. You see the flowers. You see the growth. And suddenly that invisible process becomes very tangible. Light enters the system. The plant captures it. The plant processes it. And eventually... we see the result. Those beautiful flowers sitting there under the lights. That's the part I love. The science is happening whether we can see it or not. And we're simply documenting the visible consequences. 💡➡️🌿➡️🌸 🔮 Where Is She Going? Honestly... I don't know. 😂 And that's exactly why I'm enjoying it. She's on her way somewhere. Heaven? The moon? The top of the flowering mountain? 😂👑🌿 I have absolutely no idea. But I like the direction. I like the structure. I like the colour. I like the density. I like the flowers. And I really like the personality. So let's see where she takes us. There's still plenty of story left to write. 💭 Final Thoughts – Keep Shining, Girl Week 10. And Godfather OG Pheno B continues to impress me. She's demanding. She's hungry. She keeps asking for more. But she's giving me absolutely no reason to believe she's unhappy with the environment. Quite the opposite. She's growing beautifully. She's maintaining that gorgeous green. She's developing dense, well-defined flowers. She's making excellent use of the space around her. And she's catching every photon she can get her leaves on. 😂💡🌿 She's not trying to become her sister. She's not trying to become the biggest plant in the room. She's not trying to prove anything. She's simply becoming herself. And I like her. I really like her. There's something about this phenotype that keeps pulling my attention back. Every time I look at her, I find another reason to smile. So let's not rush her. Let's not force her. Let's keep watching. Let's keep learning. And let's see where this beautiful girl decides to take us. Because wherever she's going... I like the direction. 👑🌿🌸🔥 🙏 Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 This project continues to be such an incredible learning experience.
