Hey GD. The girls are coming along just how I like it. I did notice a little bit of tip burn the other day. So I hit them all with a flush last night. Going to wait a couple days before hitting them with another feeding. They're all putting off a solid odor now. Two of the banana ogs have a very skunky undertone. While the other one has a solid citrus undertone. But you could definitely tell it's the same strain. (The one with skinnier buds in the back left is the citrus smelling one) Then that brings us to the raspberry hygor which is also putting off a very fruity odor(think berries nestled in mint). Despite underperforming the banana ogs in regards to overall yield. It is nowhere near lacking in quality or terpene content, I believe. I should note I didn't put the pot under it to bring it to the same height as the ogs until last week, so it wasn't getting near as much light as the other plants. Either way, this grow is heading toward the latter end of it's cycle. Hoping to get a bit documented about raspberry hygor on seedfinder as well, since I haven't been able to find any reference material for this strain*. * A little sidebar note I wanted to add was how I sourced these seeds. My brother is affiliated in the cannabis industry here in Cali and hooked me up with these seeds as a Christmas present. He was not able to provide much details than the packaging themselves. One package is labeled 'raspberry hygor' and another is labeled 'banana og'. Each pack containing 25 reg seeds. The banana OG beans came with pollen with which I can experiment in the future.

Going well, no issues at all. Starting to smell fruity now

👑🌸 Pink Rosay Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A 💗❄️ ✂️ Harvest & Trimming Diary – Part 1 A Queen Deserves the Royal Treatment! 👑💎 Welcome back, my friends, to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 Well, well, well… Our Queen is back! 😂👑💗 And if you thought we were finished taking photographs of this girl, you clearly don't know me very well! Pink Rosay Auto Pheno A has been one of those plants that makes you want to stop, take another look, grab the camera, and spend just a little more time appreciating what she's produced. She's compact. She's dense. She's beautiful. And those flowers… WOW! ❄️💎🌸 We've already followed her journey through the previous weeks, from her development in the tent to her final harvest day. If you're joining us for the first time, I definitely recommend taking a look at her previous updates. There's plenty to see, and those earlier chapters explain how we arrived at this moment. But let's also make this report self-contained for anyone who has landed directly on the harvest diary. Pink Rosay was grown as part of our 8×8 Adventure, where we're documenting individual plants and their journeys in the same overall growing environment. Each girl has her own diary, her own personality, and her own story to tell. Last week, we said goodbye to Pink Rosay's time in the tent. We harvested her, kept the entire plant together, and hung her upside down for drying. And now? It's time for the scissors! 😂✂️ ──────────────────────── 📢 A SMALL APOLOGY – YES, WE'RE SPLITTING THE REPORT AGAIN! Before we get into the trimming, a little explanation. My friends, this was originally supposed to be one combined harvest and trimming report. But… We went a little crazy with this one. 😂📸 And by a little, I mean A LOT! Pink Rosay has received an extensive photographic session, with plenty of macro photography, focus stacking, different flower portraits, before-and-after trimming photographs, and even a time-lapse video of the trimming process. We have so much material that squeezing everything into one update would mean sacrificing photographs and details that I genuinely want to share. So, once again, we're dividing the story into separate reports. This update will focus mainly on the trimming session and the photographs documenting the process. There will be another report with more images, more details, and the remaining parts of her post-harvest journey. I know we're doing this repeatedly, but I'd rather give each girl the attention she deserves than rush through everything just to fit it into one update. And Pink Rosay? She deserves the extra attention. 💗👑 Thank you for bearing with us, everyone! ──────────────────────── ✂️ THE TRIMMING SESSION – HAND-TRIMMED WITH LOVE Now, let's get to work! After drying, it was time to bring Pink Rosay into the trimming area. As usual, we went with a hands-on approach. Gloves on. Scissors ready. TrimBin in position. And plenty of patience! 😂✂️ We dry our plants as whole plants, so once the drying stage was complete, we could move on to the trimming process and work through the flowers individually. No shortcuts. No rushing. Just taking our time and giving every flower the attention it deserves. Pink Rosay's flowers are beautifully compact and dense. Some have that lovely rounded structure, while others show their own individual shapes and expressions. And the frost! My goodness… ❄️❄️❄️ She's absolutely covered! We carefully hand-trimmed the flowers, working around their natural shapes and removing the unwanted leaf material while preserving the beautiful flower structures. This is one of those stages where I genuinely enjoy slowing down. The growing part may be over, but there's still plenty to appreciate. Every branch brings another collection of flowers to inspect, photograph, and prepare. And with Pink Rosay, I certainly wasn't short of things to admire. 💗🌸 ──────────────────────── 📸 BEFORE & AFTER – THE QUEEN GETS HER FINAL TOUCHES One of the things we wanted to document properly was the difference between the flowers before and after trimming. So we've included photographs showing the flowers in their original dried form, followed by their trimmed appearance. It's a lovely way to appreciate the flower structures without losing the context of how they looked before the scissors came into play. And it also gives us an opportunity to look more closely at the details. The shapes. The density. The colours. The orange pistils. And, of course, that beautiful coating of trichomes. Pink Rosay has some seriously photogenic flowers! 😂💎 We also included photographs of the trimming setup and the process itself, including the moment the gloves go on and the work begins. Because the final flower photographs are only one part of the story. I like documenting the work behind them, too. ──────────────────────── 🔬 MACRO PHOTOGRAPHY & FOCUS STACKING – WE WENT DEEP! Now, this is where things got a little out of hand. 😂📸🔬 You know me by now. Give me a beautiful flower, a macro lens, and a little time in the studio, and suddenly the afternoon disappears! For Pink Rosay, we went through several focus-stacking sessions, exploring her flowers from different distances and perspectives. Some of the stacks are relatively small, starting with a 19-frame stack. Others go much further, reaching an impressive 390 frames! Yes… 390! 😂 That's how deep we went into the details of this Queen. The idea behind focus stacking is to combine multiple photographs taken at slightly different focus distances. Each image captures a different area in focus, and the resulting stack brings those details together into a single image with much greater apparent depth of focus. It's a fantastic way to explore subjects that are extremely difficult to capture entirely sharp in one photograph. And Pink Rosay gave us plenty to work with. Her flowers are full of interesting textures, shapes, and little details that become much more visible when we get closer. The photographs included in this update are just part of that exploration. We have different flower portraits, individual branches, close-ups, and comparisons showing the flowers before and after trimming. Some of the results are absolutely beautiful. And honestly, I could spend hours looking at them. 💗❄️🔬 ──────────────────────── 🎥 A LITTLE TIME-LAPSE – HOURS OF WORK IN A FEW MOMENTS! Of course, we also recorded part of the trimming session. And because nobody needs to watch me trimming flowers in real time for several hours… 😂 We put together a time-lapse! It gives you a little glimpse of the process, the hands-on work, and the time that goes into preparing the flowers. Sometimes we share the beautiful final photographs, but it's equally important to remember that there's a whole process behind those images. The gloves. The scissors. The patience. The attention to detail. And the time spent working through the harvest. So make sure you have a look at the video included with this update! 🎥✂️💚 ──────────────────────── 💗 OUR QUEEN – SMALL IN SIZE, BIG IN PERSONALITY I think by now you know how I feel about Pink Rosay. 😂👑 She's been a pleasure to grow, a pleasure to photograph, and now a pleasure to work with during the trimming process. She's compact, but her flowers have plenty of presence. She's dense, beautifully structured, and incredibly frosty. And there's something about her that keeps bringing me back to the camera. Not every plant needs to be enormous to make an impression. Not every harvest needs to be about chasing the biggest number. Sometimes, the real enjoyment comes from the quality of the flowers, the details, the experience, and the satisfaction of seeing a plant through her entire journey. Pink Rosay has given us all of that. And we're not finished documenting her yet! 💗🌸❄️ ──────────────────────── ⏳ THIS IS ONLY PART ONE! As much as I'd love to show you everything in one go, we still have plenty of photographs waiting to be shared. This update already contains around 50 photographs, alongside the trimming time-lapse. And there's more! We'll return with another report dedicated to the remaining photographic material and the next parts of Pink Rosay's harvest journey. I don't want to rush those images or leave them sitting in a folder when they deserve to be part of her diary. So consider this the first part of our harvest and trimming story. The Queen is getting the full documentary treatment. 😂📸👑 ──────────────────────── 💭 FINAL THOUGHTS – SOME PLANTS MAKE YOU FALL IN LOVE WITH THE PROCESS Pink Rosay Auto – Pheno A. What a beautiful girl. 💗👑🌸 From the first weeks in the tent to the final photographs, the drying stage, and now the trimming session, she's been one of those plants that makes the entire experience enjoyable. We took our time with her. We photographed her from every possible angle. We explored her flowers through macro photography and focus stacking. We hand-trimmed her carefully. And we documented as much of the process as we could. Because that's what these diaries are about. Not simply showing a final photograph or sharing a final number. It's about preserving the journey. The little details. The work behind the results. And the memories we create along the way. I genuinely believe that the connection we build with our plants is part of what makes growing at home so special. Whether we're talking about Pink Rosay, tomatoes, or anything else we grow, there's something wonderful about caring for a plant from the beginning and being there for every stage of its journey. And Pink Rosay has certainly given us plenty of reasons to smile. She's dense. She's compact. She's frosty. She's beautiful. And she's still giving us reasons to bring out the camera! 😂💗 So let's give our Queen the spotlight she deserves. This isn't the end of her harvest diary. It's simply another chapter. And what a chapter it has been! ──────────────────────── 🙏 A HUGE THANK YOU!

On 3 of them I applied LST and Topping On other 3 Toppin only I am aware that they will soon run out of space,which means that I will have to move two of them to another tent...we'll see

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!! Questa piccola ha avuto la sfortua di essere piantata in vaso da 5l, ma comunque ha tenuto lo stesso il passo delle altre mostrando che le auto possono e devono essere coltivate indoor.. Con cime che sembrano cervelli e dal colore nero è una delle genetiche che fumandola mi ha trasmesso di più avendo un sapore di cioccolato fondente intenso che ti manda su di giri!! Grazie a tutti per il supporto ❤️🍀🔥

June 20th - all plants get a visit this week Updates start tonight. 22nd, prepping to make a tea for Fridays visit to PurpsBerry etc. Shaping the plants backwards, towards the Hillside will be the goal. Clean the hillside a minimal amount, not wanting to lose the wonderful camouflage it provides. We are looking to pull the plants tops northward almost to the ground, forcing the side-Branches into becoming Cola’s. Do it with 2nd opinions… making a Bush, thats the goal. It’ll Help achieve a lb per plant

This lil lady is officially flowering. Half way through the week she started growing pistils all over. Switched the lights to 12:12 half way through the week. She recovered from the LST of tying down her top. Room has averaged 85° F / 40% RH with a high of 89° F Ordered larger oscilating fan hoping to get the heat down a bit. Been dealing with fungus gnats in some other plants in the house so I sprinkled ceylon cinnamon on top of the soil, to act as an organic fungicide, and sprayed her down with neem oil as a pest prevention. 💧 Watered: Tuesday May 5, 2020 with 4:1 Water to Hydrogen Peroxide. Installed 6in oscilating fan blowing at the light. Heat is still too high. ~85° average Raised light to 18in above canopy. Shes responding well to the LST and several nodes below the top have now started showing noticible growth.

Resin haze

Day 63 F: Well here we are at the end of a brilliant grow that has seen totally different mixes of heights and genetics successfully completed under the Mars Hydro fc3000 and my own mix of supersoil. Rhe light managed to keep them all at full tilt even though they were at big , differing canopy heights. If inhad used the middle of the room , I could have covered the canopy a lot better and the light would have easily reached the whole canopy despite their odd height differences. I have a Mars tent that will be perfect for this light to totally fill out with 6 plants once I am back at full production and over this slight delay upcoming. The soil has been brilliant from the off , even the small Mexican airline #1 that seemed to struggle with the start up and strength of the mix has finished well. I only added ecothrive , eco life cycle and biosys tea throughout the grow with a couple of grams of Megacrop in flower as a booster. The watering in the beds has been very easy to maintain and keep moist and the more shallow depth has helped check at root level and bottom easily. The immobile nature of the bed has meant that using different strains as the 3 is maybe not ideal , workable , but not ideal and needs some forward planning next time out . Besides that , it has been very simple to manage. The strains have been perfect throughout the weeks with little to no signs of any deficiency. I did remove a lot of fan leaves over the past week to really open the lower parts of the plant to more light for the ripening time . It will also help with the drying time and harvest. There is a lot of really nice colas on these ladies and I cannot recommend the genetics for autos from Fast buds enough. The Strawberry pie finished beautifully and with 2 phenos ro enjoy once dry , I am really looking forward to hitting that one. The six shooter look deadly for the unweary too with their frosty and kush looking purples and reds. Mexican airline have done a nice job on fattening their buds at the end but the #1 is way less bountiful than her sister. Let's see what a drying period does to their overall yields now. They look so big when 1st hung to dry but it is so disheartening watching them shrink to tiny versions of the originals. The dark period has made them a little more tacky without a doubt and their smells are so obvious going through the plants cutting. Temps are at around 10°c in the room with no lights on so this will be a long ,low and slow dry . I do have the dehumidifier on its highest setting to avoid these fat buds developing any bud rot but the low temps will also be a huge help. I have a nice mix of aromas among these with lemon , fresh cut fruit , candy cane sweet and a spicy fuel . Roll on the harvest and cure now. Hopefully a harvest report will follow within 10-14 days. Be safe and well growmies. The Best Is Yet To Come !

Feb 22 Really starting to thicken up! The soil underneath is still plenty moist even though the fan is blowing on it 24 hours a day. The roots will grow more quickly as the water dries up and the roots continue their search for more.

wet trim, nice buds, will update when more details are available --- got 0.3g of crazy scissors hash - vaped a tiny bit of it and the high is amazing 🤩 ---- 11/6/20 started curing & made some RSO of the trimming (~3ml) ---- 11/7/20 made a 2nd batch of RSO (~10ml)

7/7: Transplanted plant to final pot! Roots showed out of tray. Accidentally pulled a root off during transplant 😢. After transplant I top feed/watered medium with a half gallon of treated water. I mixed 2ml of Rapid Start in 1 gallon water hub. Poured half in half gallon jug then poured half gallon over medium. Added 2 gallons of water into reservoir (1st white line) to promote root growth to bottom and to begin capillary reaction. 7/8: Bumped light intensity dimmer to 30%. 7/9: Left for Vacation.... Praying for my baby!🙏🏿 Going to be gone for 4 days. 😅 ***** For this Grow****** “Day Air Temperature” will be the max temp of tent for the week. “Substrate Temperature” will be the average temp of tent for the week. “Night Air Temperature” will be the lowest temp of the tent for the week.

Flowering continued successfully this week, with some rather expansive growth of the bud sites. Vertical growth has essentially ceased, and she is clearly putting most of her energy into flower production. The flowers and surrounding leaves are getting rather frosty. Even more so than was to be expected, and I’m excited to see how she continues as we transition into mid/late flower. These elements were significant enough that, last week, I decided it was time to break out the big guns and start using the macro lens to take some good shots for everyone. The plant has handled the tent-swap and transition to 20/4 light very well, showing no signs of stopping. The DLI at the base of the king bud rests around 38.5. I am very glad we made the swap, as you can see some premature browning of the pistils on the king bud, due to light burn from the other (shorter) tent. This is a perfect representation of the risks of not doing any training on your plant: they tend to grow like weeds! (lol) The swap to Athena Blended Bloom A/B from Grow A/B has been uneventful, with no signs of nutrient lockout or stunted development.

Day#37 update: i finally made her beg for her water . The way all her leaves are hanging at a downward angle , then in the 1st video if you look you can see her “drooping” leaves begin to “pray” stand themselves back up. O watered her to run off then did a life-medium defoliation instead of a super heavy one like I planned and then I “ponytailed” each of her main tops to allow the other nodes to become strong to produce more branching . Day#40Update: the re-growth from defoliating & pony tailing has been decent . On one or two she’s trying her hardest to break out of the tie. I’ll release her from the ponytails later today & we’ll see where we are in two days for day #42 week 6 The plan is still to top all her main tops after untying the ponytails . Day#42 Update : end of week #6 she’s growing so evenly and well that I ru still don’t see a benefit in topping. These lateral sode branches are growing for what they know . She’s a squat plant for sure but man is she full. She’s been in this one gallon since day #9 so it’s been 33 days she should be asking for food soon . I’m debating on top dressing her in the one gallon or up-potting during a transplant for her . Part of me wants to skip forward straight to a 6gall pot but part of me is saying to “punish” her a little more and leave her in this pot a few more weeks .

Topping week. Topped after 4th floor. Defoliated 1st floor as well. November 20, Update: Transplantation to the final pot.

One more week of veg and we will be flipping the lights to 12/12. The blueberry pie is starting to put out a nice smell. I've topped this plant along with a bunch of defoliation. The structure for this plant is perfect. I was thinking about putting up a trellis but I decided not to in the end. It would make it very difficult for me to get to the 2 back plants. I need more room in my basement! Haha we will flip next week and start increasing nutrient solution for flower. Can't wait to see the bud structure on these nts.

Blütetag 28-35
