Ladies doing fine. Worm castings are magic. SD2 is getting greener. I topdressed all the plants with worm castings

Hey everyone :-). There is not much to tell this week :) A few came to the flowering tent, 2 are still in the vegi phase for 2 days and then come last to the flowering tent :-) The Blue Cheese and the Kosher Tangie Kush smell very good and how they should 😍👍 It will be difficult to choose 2 mums :-). I wish everyone a nice week 👌 Let it grow

Another week with the girls going great. There swelling up and filling out nicely. Like always i increase my bloom nutrient to 12ml per gallon from 9ml. I'll go back to 9 next week and finish out using that amount.

I was onnvaccation for a week and when I got back she looked like this. Wonderful...

Just updating last weeks progress

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno A Week 9 | Welcome to My Little Jungle 🌿🔥 Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And honestly... I think I'm starting to feel like Tarzan. Walking through the room. Moving between the plants. Looking underneath the canopy. Checking the flowers. Stopping every few minutes because another plant catches my eye. 😂🌿 This grow has become its own little jungle, and I'm having an absolute blast watching it develop. Because the more these plants mature, the more obvious one thing becomes: they may share the same room, but they certainly don't share the same personality. And Cash Express Pheno A is a perfect example. She's growing in essentially the same environment as the Blueberry Muffins. Same room. Same general environmental strategy. Same lighting philosophy. Same irrigation system. Same feeding approach. And yet... look at her. She's doing her own thing. And she's doing it beautifully. 🌱 Week 9 – She's Standing Tall in Her Own Way Cash Express Pheno A has never been one of the giants of the room. And that's okay. Her story was never supposed to be about becoming the tallest plant. Her story is about what she can create with the structure she has. And right now, that structure is becoming incredibly impressive. She's compact. She's well defined. She's developing strong flowering branches. And more importantly, the flowers themselves are starting to become the real stars of the show. When I look at her now, I don't see a small plant. I see a plant that's becoming very efficient with the space she's been given. And that's something I really appreciate. 🌸 The Flowers Are Starting to Speak This week, the flower structure is what immediately catches my attention. The buds are becoming much more pronounced, and those pistils... Wow. They're beautiful. We're seeing these thick, bright white pistils with that subtle yellowish/golden tone, and they stand out beautifully against the surrounding foliage. It's one of those little characteristics that makes this phenotype instantly recognizable when you compare her with the rest of the room. Different plant. Different flower expression. Different personality. And this is exactly why I love taking the time to photograph these girls individually. The macro photographs reveal things that you simply don't appreciate from across the room. You can see the individual pistils. The developing flower structure. The little sugar leaves beginning to surround the buds. The early signs of resin development. And slowly, what started as a collection of tiny flowering sites is becoming something that actually looks like a proper flower. She's getting there. And she's looking fantastic doing it. 🚂 Small Frame – Serious Flower Potential This girl continues proving something that we've already learned several times during this adventure: Plant height isn't the same thing as plant potential. She's not towering over everybody. She doesn't need to. She's using her available space differently. The branches are carrying developing flowers, and the structure is becoming increasingly easy to read. There's a certain confidence to her now. Almost like she's saying: "I don't need to be the biggest plant here." "Just watch what I do." 😄 And honestly? I'm watching. Very closely. 🌿 Same Room – Completely Different Expression This is probably one of the most fascinating parts of the entire 8×8 Adventure. Take Cash Express. Now look at the Blueberry Muffins. Same general environment. Same flowering schedule. Similar nutritional strategy. Yet look at the differences. Different leaf structure. Different branching. Different flower formation. Different density. Different pistil appearance. Different overall architecture. This is where the experiment becomes really valuable. Because if I were growing only one plant, I might look at Cash Express and simply say: "She's compact." But because she's growing beside eleven other cultivars, we can actually see the difference. The environment is providing the baseline. The genetics are providing the personality. And Cash Express has quite a personality. 💨 Structure, Airflow & Flowering Space As the flowers continue developing, I'm increasingly interested in maintaining good movement through the plant. At this stage, the goal isn't simply to produce as much foliage as possible. We want the plant to have enough healthy leaves to support flowering while maintaining sensible spacing throughout the canopy. Good airflow becomes increasingly important as flowers become larger and denser. We're trying to avoid unnecessary stagnant areas inside the canopy and keep the overall environment comfortable for the plant. That's one of the reasons the cleaning and canopy management we've been doing throughout the room matters. It's not about stripping plants because a certain week number says we should. It's about looking at what each plant is doing and responding accordingly. And Cash Express is telling us that her structure is working very nicely. So we're not trying to reinvent her. We're simply helping her continue doing what she's already doing well. 💡 Let the Photons Do Their Job She's also a great example of why I like thinking about the canopy as a three-dimensional space. It's not just about what happens directly underneath the main light. There are flowers positioned at different heights and angles throughout the plant. The room's additional inner and under-canopy lighting helps bring useful light into areas that would otherwise receive less. That gives these compact plants another advantage. Instead of trying to solve everything through aggressive defoliation, we can combine: 💡 Good lighting 🌿 Sensible canopy structure 💨 Air movement 🌡️ Environmental stability ✂️ Selective cleaning It's all about creating a balanced system. And Cash Express is certainly taking advantage of it. ⚗️ Nutrition – Still Holding Steady The nutrition programme remains unchanged this week. We're continuing with: Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Plagron Pure Zym – 1 ml/L pH adjustment as required The current solution remains around pH 6.0 and approximately 2.0 mS/cm EC. And honestly, there's no reason to start changing things simply because we're excited about what we're seeing. She's developing. She's flowering. She's maintaining herself beautifully. So we're keeping the strategy steady and allowing the plant to put that nutrition toward what matters now: flowers. The plants don't need us constantly changing the recipe. Sometimes consistency is the most important input we can provide. 🌡️ Environment – Stable Enough to Let Her Work The room continues to provide a stable environment shared with the other flowering plants. We're currently around: 🌡️ Day temperature – 29°C 🌙 Night temperature – 25°C 💧 Relative humidity – 60% ⚗️ pH – ~6.0 ⚡ EC – ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂ – ~693 ppm 💡 Light schedule – 12/12 ? Pot size – 15 L 💦 Watering – approximately 1.2–1.3 L/plant/24h We're also maintaining the additional lighting strategy throughout the room, including the inner and under-canopy lighting. The important thing for me isn't finding one magical number. It's keeping the whole system working together. Light. Temperature. Humidity. CO₂. Nutrition. Root-zone conditions. Water availability. They're all pieces of the same puzzle. And right now, Cash Express appears very comfortable with the picture we've created. 🔬 The Personality of Cash Express Pheno A If I had to describe her in just a few words now? Compact. Structured. Beautiful. She's not trying to dominate the room. She's not trying to become the tallest. She's simply standing there and showing us what she can do. And that's actually one of the things I find most rewarding about this plant. She has her own identity. The flower structure is becoming distinctive. The pistils have their own look. The plant architecture is easy to recognize. And every week, that identity becomes stronger. That's the beauty of watching a phenotype from seed all the way through flowering. At the beginning, you're basically meeting a stranger. Then slowly... you start learning her personality. 📸 Behind the Lens And this week? The camera had a very good time. 😂📸 The close-up photographs really highlight the developing flowers. Those thick white pistils almost look like little fireworks coming out of the buds. The subtle warmer/yellowish tones give the flowers a beautiful contrast compared with some of the other plants in the room. And then the wider photographs bring everything back into perspective. You can see the structure. The branches. The distribution of flowers. The compact architecture. The way she's building her own little world inside the room. This is exactly why I love documenting the grow this way. The camera slows me down. It makes me stop. Look. Observe. And sometimes discover something I completely missed five minutes earlier. 🌿 Tarzan in the 8×8 Jungle 😂 And I have to admit something... I'm having way too much fun with this run. 😂🌿 Walking around the tent between twelve different plants, checking flowers, moving leaves, looking underneath the canopy, photographing different angles... Sometimes I genuinely feel like I'm walking through a tiny jungle. Tarzan with a camera. 😂📸🌴 But that's also what makes this adventure so enjoyable. I'm not just trying to get to harvest. I'm enjoying the process. I'm learning. I'm adapting. I'm watching what works. I'm watching what doesn't. And every plant teaches me something different. That's probably the biggest lesson of this entire run so far. You can have a plan. But the plants will always have something to add to it. 🔮 Looking Ahead Now we're getting into a very exciting part of the flowering cycle. The flowers are established. The structure is clear. And the next phase is about watching those flowers develop more mass and density. Over the coming week, I'll be watching for: 🌸 Continued flower swelling ? Further development of those beautiful pistils 💎 Increasing resin production 🌿 Healthy foliage supporting the flowers 💨 Good airflow throughout the structure 📈 Increasing bud density and definition And, as always, I'm not going to force the plant into a predetermined schedule. If she needs something, we'll respond. If she's happy... we let her work. That's the beauty of this adventure. 💭 Final Thoughts – Let's Make Her Shine Cash Express Pheno A may not be the tallest plant in the 8×8. She may not be the biggest. She may not have the largest footprint. But she's becoming one of those plants that you can't help but stop and look at. Because the more you look... the more you see. The structure. The flowers. Those beautiful thick white pistils. The subtle warmer tones. The developing resin. The way she's filling her space. She's not asking for attention. She's earning it. And that's exactly what I want to do with this week's update. Give her the spotlight. Let her shine. Let her show everybody what this particular Cash Express phenotype can do. Because she's doing something beautiful. And we're still only watching the beginning of the final chapter. 🙏 Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. This project has become such an incredible learning experience for me. Twelve different cultivars. One room. One shared environment. And twelve completely different stories unfolding in front of us. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document this journey and share the experience with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Cash Express genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover what this phenotype can become. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the plants throughout the adventure. Thank you to Future of Grow for providing the Black Series lighting powering this jungle. And thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the inner and lower areas of the canopy. And finally... thank you to everyone watching. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by just to see how the girls are doing. You're part of this adventure too. I'm learning every week. I'm adapting every week. And I'm having an absolute blast doing it. So here's to another week in the jungle. 🌿😂 And here's to this beautiful little Cash Express Pheno A. She may be compact... but she's got serious flower power. 🚂🌸🔥 Let's make her shine. Let's let her do her thing. And let's see what this little powerhouse brings us next. Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿🚂🔥

All seems to be going well. I'm watering twice a week with 80ml per plant. Using mainly plain water with a little Fish Mix. If growth is strong this week, I'll look potting into 5 gallon pots next week. I've begun some small training with my fingers to keep the stalks malleable and see what shape I want. Once they're in their final pots I'll start training with clips.

Ich glaube es geht aufs ende zu oder warum sehen die blätter in der hinteren reihe so schlecht aus

3-17 Photo bombs today 😂😂 Gave 4ml green sensation, 3ml cal/mag and 1 ml slf-100. Run off ppm 1300 ph 7.0 Hope can get the ph down a bit. 3-21 1.5 grams game time, 3ml green sensation, 3ml cal/mag, 1ml Slf-100 ph 6.0 ppm 350 Runoff 1432 ph 6.9 Yo, dropped 1 💪🤘 See ya next week

Another week has passed, and we're closer to the end than I estimated. I chopped their mom on Day 70 and expected similar for her offspring, but we're now on Day 49, and the girls look to be done in a week or two. I've started seeing more frost, which indicates that the trichomes are turning cloudy. No amber yet, though. So there's that. It will take a while longer. But 21 days? With the senescence I'm seeing? Press X for Doubt: [ X ]

Die Pflanzen haben sich auch in dieser Woche gut gemacht. Man kann den unterschied zwischen sativa und indika gut erkennen. Die beiden hinteren pflanzen sind Girl scout Cookie und Sweet Candy und die vorderen super Silver haze und Berry bomb . Der Weinballon blubbert noch mäßig vor sich hin und jeden zweiten Tag stelle ich ein Gefäß mit Wasser und 4 CO2 Tabletten mit ins Zelt. Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dem gegenwärtigen Wachstum und Entwicklung der Pflanzen. Ich spiele mit dem Gedanken ein zweites Zelt zu kaufen und im Wechsel auch Automatik anzupflanzen um die Wartezeit zur Ernte mit einem kurzfristigen Grow zu belohnen. Dafür rauche ich nicht einmal. Dieses Hobby habe ich meinem Sohn zu verdanken. Er ist so selbstlos und testet die Ergebnisse für mich. Dann wird er sie bewerten ,da ich das leider nicht kann. Habe überlegt vielleicht Edibles herzustellen. Candys, Pralinen oder Gebäck. Wäre dankbar für Erfahrungen und Rezepte . Aber bis dahin werde ich den Mädels noch beim Wachsen zusehen. Ich wünsche euch noch eine schöne Zeit und halte euch weiterhin auf dem Laufenden. Bis nächsten Sonntag.

18.07 watering with 400ml - 400ml - 400 ml Blueberry got only water Trainwreck got Bloom, Top-max and Fish-Mix All the others got only Top-Max and Bloom. Search everyday for some spidermites or something else. On some days I find a few on blueberry and Biscotti. I remove the manually. 21.07 watering with 400 - 400 - 400 water. Again: blueberry only water All the others Top-Max and Bloom Trainerwechsel started to flower. The leaves of Blueberry and Biscotti started to get yellow. Also removed some leaves with were down in the shadow of the top strains of frosted guava.

All looking good,.. healthy, not much smell yet but roll on next week 👌

Still going strong 💪... smell is amazing, looks beautiful,.. really happy with this strain, just needs to finish up strong now. Roll on next week 👌

Week 11 of flower, 10% amber trichomes 90% milky, waiting a bit longer as I want a bit more amber.

29.3.25: This week has flown by. Everything is looking good. I've been watering alternatively with Bud Explosion PK booster and Sea K(elp) by Greenleaf nutrients. Also, plain water I'm between feeding. I watered yesterday and had run off from 2 pots, so I will wait for them to dry out sufficiently before watering again. Trying to mitigate the risks of mildew and / or mould due to too much water / humidity. 31.3.25: I cleaned out the tent and disinfected it again. Had a bit of runoff, which had left a bit of residue on the floor. Today, I took all the photos and videos whilst cleaning the tent. The pots had sufficiently dried, so I will water with the Greenleaf nutrients. I watered with dechlorinated water PH'd between 6.2-6.4. 6.5 litres contained the following nutrients: ♡ 1/4 Tsp Mega Crop Part A. ♡ 1/2 Tsp Bud Explosion PK booster ♡ 1/4 Tsp Sea K(elp). (All by Greenleaf nutrients). Thanks for hanging out 🍃 ✌️ 💚 🙂
