Week 10 beginning of the final stages. Smell is amazing 🤩 What would you guys make different?

Wish I'd know about this site when she started. In week 9 since dropping the seed. Started Jan. 1st.

semana 9 desde germinación. solo utilizo esos fertilizantes. no mido ph. no mido ec. agua directa del grifo. la mas alta mide 110cm y la mas pequeña 90cm. utilizo unas alzas para elevar las mas pequeñas y dejar el cultivo en un mismo nivel. no utilizo defoliación. ni podas. solo un poco de lst. el panel led es DIY. lo fabrique yo con 9 led citizen clu 048 corriendo a 50w cada uno. 3 temperaturas de color distintas. (5 led 3000k, 3 led 2700k, 1 led 3500k)

i decided to give my girls their first cut. i used the so called Fuck I Missed technique in which there is the possibilty to grow up to even 8 new main stems. i'm currently stil thinking if i should do this multiple times or use topping. next week i will post the results from the cuts and hopefully they are all done correctly. the plants are getting a great smell even though it is still weak.

and yet another grow has ended....

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno B Week 9 | My Sister Has Her Own Story 🌿🔥 Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And once again, this room is reminding me why growing different phenotypes side by side is so fascinating. Because sometimes you can look at two plants and think: "These two are sisters." You can see the family resemblance. The general structure. The flowering behaviour. The way they develop. But then you look a little closer... And you realize: they are absolutely writing their own stories. Cash Express Pheno B is one of those girls. She's growing in the same room as her sister, under essentially the same conditions, with the same general feeding strategy, lighting philosophy and irrigation system. And yet... she has her own personality. She's beautiful. She's lush. She's developing an impressive flowering structure. And she's becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. So this week, let's put the spotlight where it belongs. On her. 🚂🌿🌸 🌱 Week 9 – She's Finding Her Shape Cash Express Pheno B has continued developing beautifully this week, reaching approximately 93 cm. And while height isn't everything, that number does tell us something interesting when we compare her with her sister. Pheno A has remained the smaller, more compact expression. Pheno B has taken a different route. She's taller. She's more extended through the structure. Her branches are distributed differently. And the flowering sites are developing along that architecture in their own unique way. But what's really interesting is that despite those differences... there is still a recognizable family resemblance. You look at her and know you're looking at Cash Express. But this is her version of Cash Express. And I absolutely love that. 🌿 Lush Green & Full of Life The first thing that catches my eye this week is her colour. She's green. Beautifully, deeply and consistently green. The foliage is looking lush and healthy, and the plant has that unmistakable appearance of a girl with plenty of energy left to put into flowering. This is one of those plants where you can almost feel the vigor when you're standing next to her. She's not looking tired. She's not looking like she's struggling. She's not trying to tell us that something is wrong. She's simply growing. And growing beautifully. That makes my job much easier. Instead of trying to fix something that isn't broken, I can simply observe, support and allow her to continue doing what she's already doing so well. 🌸 The Flowers Are Getting Serious And then we get to the real stars of the show. The flowers. Wow. The developing buds are becoming increasingly defined, and the pistils are absolutely beautiful. We're seeing those long, bright hairs emerging from the flowers in all directions. They're still predominantly fresh and light in colour, with some of the warmer tones we've been noticing in this phenotype. And the flower structures themselves are becoming much more substantial. This is no longer just a collection of early flowering sites. We're starting to see actual bud architecture developing. The individual flowers are beginning to connect and build their shape. There's still a long way to go before we see the finished product, of course. But this is exactly the stage where the potential starts becoming easier to appreciate. And Cash Express Pheno B is giving us plenty to look at. 🚂 Same Sister. Different Personality. This is probably the biggest story of this week's update. Pheno A and Pheno B are sisters. Same cultivar. Same room. Same basic environment. Same irrigation. Same overall nutrition. Same 12/12-from-seed approach. And yet... look at them. Pheno A has her own compact and efficient architecture. Pheno B has developed a different structure, with more height and a different distribution of flowering sites. Neither one is better. Neither one is worse. They're simply different. And that's the whole reason I'm documenting them separately. I don't want to reduce the story to: "Cash Express did well this week." I want to know how each phenotype does well. What does she naturally want to become? How does she build flowers? How does she use the available space? How does she respond to the same environment? What characteristics remain consistent between sisters? And what characteristics separate them? That's where the real fun is. ✂️ A Little Cleaning – Nothing Dramatic We've also continued doing a little selective cleaning around the room. And, as always, this isn't about following a calendar. There isn't a rule saying: "Week 9 = remove X amount of leaves." That's not how I want to grow this project. We're reading the plants. For Cash Express Pheno B, we've removed a few leaves here and there where they weren't contributing much anymore or where opening a little space made sense. Nothing aggressive. Nothing dramatic. We're not trying to strip this beautiful green girl. Quite the opposite. She has plenty of healthy foliage, and I want to keep it working for her. The objective is simply to maintain a sensible canopy, allow light and air to move through the plant, and keep the developing flowers visible and accessible. Sometimes a single leaf in exactly the wrong place can block an entire flowering site. Remove that one leaf? Perfect. Remove twenty more just because you're already holding the scissors? Not necessarily. 😂✂️ Selective beats automatic. 💨 Airflow Becomes More Important As these flowers continue developing, maintaining good airflow becomes increasingly important. We're now dealing with larger and denser flowering structures than we were a few weeks ago. That means I want to avoid unnecessary pockets of stagnant air inside the canopy. The small amount of selective cleaning helps open things up without compromising the plant's overall ability to photosynthesize. And because we're working with a room containing twelve different plants, keeping the canopy reasonably open also helps the environment itself. Better air movement. Better exchange around the foliage. Fewer overly crowded areas. And a little more breathing room for everybody. We're not trying to create a sterile environment. We're simply trying to give the plants the conditions they need to remain healthy while the flowers continue developing. 💡 Light From Above – And Inside One of the things I really enjoy about this particular setup is that we're not relying entirely on light from directly above. The main Future of Grow Black Series lighting provides the primary canopy intensity, while the additional inner and under-canopy lighting helps bring usable light into areas that would otherwise receive considerably less. And Cash Express Pheno B's structure makes that especially interesting. She's not a completely flat wall of foliage. Her branches occupy different levels and angles throughout the plant. That creates opportunities for light to reach different flowering sites. At the same time, we're still paying attention to canopy density and selectively opening areas where appropriate. It's a combination of lighting and plant architecture. And once again, the plant itself changes how the lighting system behaves. ⚗️ Feeding – Consistency Is the Name of the Game 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 Current solution: ⚗️ pH – approximately 6.0 ⚡ EC – approximately 2.0 mS/cm And this girl certainly doesn't look like she's complaining. That beautiful green colour, active flowering and continued development are all telling me that she's comfortable with the current strategy. So why change it? We don't need to keep adjusting things simply because we're moving through the calendar. She's responding. We're observing. And for now, stability wins. The plants get the final vote. 🌡️ Current Environment The room continues running with a stable flowering environment: 🌡️ Day temperature – 29°C 🌙 Night temperature – 25°C 💧 Relative humidity – 60% 🥥 Substrate temperature – 26°C 💦 Solution temperature – 25°C ⚗️ pH – ~6.0 ⚡ EC – ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂ – ~639 ppm 💡 Light schedule – 12/12 ? Pot size – 15 L 💧 Watering – approximately 1.3 L/plant/24h The interesting part is that the room conditions are shared across the plants, but their responses remain very individual. That's exactly what we wanted from this experiment. The environment gives us the baseline. The genetics provide the differences. 🔬 Reading the Plant Instead of Reading the Calendar One of the biggest lessons this run continues teaching me is that the calendar is useful... but the plant is more useful. Week numbers help us document development. They help us compare one update with another. But they don't tell us exactly what every plant needs on a particular day. Cash Express Pheno B doesn't care that another plant is ready for something. She doesn't care what Pheno A is doing. She has her own root system. Her own structure. Her own metabolism. Her own genetic expression. And that's what I'm trying to respect. If she needs a little cleaning, we clean. If she doesn't... we leave her alone. If she responds well to the current feeding... we keep it stable. If something changes... we adapt. Simple. 📸 Behind the Lens And once again, this girl is making my job behind the camera very easy. The close-ups show just how much the flowers have developed. Those pistils are becoming one of the most recognizable characteristics of this phenotype. Long. Bright. Abundant. Almost exploding from the developing flowers. Then you step back and see the whole plant... and the story changes again. Now you see the structure. The height. The branch distribution. The amount of flowering happening throughout the plant. And that beautiful green canopy surrounding everything. This is why I love documenting individual phenotypes. A wide photograph tells you what the plant looks like. A macro photograph starts telling you who she is. 🌿 My Little Jungle Is Getting Better Every Week And I have to say... I'm having so much fun with this run. Sometimes I walk into the room and genuinely feel like I'm stepping into my own little jungle. 😂🌿 I'm moving between plants. Checking underneath leaves. Looking at flowers. Looking at the structure. Taking photographs. Finding something new. Then moving to the next plant and discovering that she's doing something completely different. It's almost like visiting twelve little worlds inside one room. And that's probably one of the biggest reasons I'm enjoying this project so much. I'm learning constantly. I'm adapting constantly. And I'm getting better at understanding that sometimes the best thing a grower can do is simply slow down and observe. 🔮 Looking Ahead The next stage should become increasingly exciting. The foundation is there. The flowering sites are established. The plant is healthy. And now we want to see those flowers continue developing their size, density and character. Over the next week I'll be watching for: 🌸 Continued flower swelling ? Further pistil development 💎 Increasing resin production 🌿 Continued healthy foliage 💨 Good airflow through the canopy 📈 More definition and density in the flowers And most importantly... I'll continue letting her tell me what she needs. No unnecessary changes. No chasing numbers. No forcing her to become something she's not. Just observation, consistency and adaptation. 💭 Final Thoughts – Let This Sister Shine Cash Express Pheno B has reached a really beautiful point in her journey. She's standing around 93 cm. She's lush. She's green. She's flowering strongly. Her structure is becoming increasingly impressive. And her flowers are developing their own unmistakable character. She's similar to her sister. But she's not her sister. And that's what makes her special. When I look at the two Cash Express phenotypes together, I don't see competition. I see two different interpretations of the same genetic potential. One sister chose one path. This girl chose another. And I'm absolutely happy to let her walk that path. Because she's doing something beautiful. She deserves the spotlight. She deserves the camera. She deserves her own story. So let's give it to her. 🚂🌿🌸 Cash Express Pheno B is not trying to be anybody else. She's simply becoming herself. And honestly... that's exactly what I want to see. 🙏 Thank You As always, a huge thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Every week, this project becomes more interesting. Twelve cultivars. One shared environment. Different structures. Different colours. Different flowering patterns. Different personalities. And an incredible amount to learn. Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a place to document this journey, compare experiences and share what we're learning with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Cash Express genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore these different phenotypes side by side. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the plants throughout the adventure. Thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting helping power the room from above. Thank you to AutoPot for the irrigation system keeping the plants consistently supplied. And a special thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into the inner and lower canopy. And finally... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every conversation. Every person who stops by to look at the plants. It genuinely makes this journey more enjoyable. I'm learning. I'm experimenting. I'm adapting. And sometimes I'm walking around the tent feeling like Tarzan in his jungle. 😂🌿 But honestly? I'm loving every minute of it. And Cash Express Pheno B is giving me another very good reason to stop, look and appreciate what's happening in front of me. She's beautiful. She's healthy. She's developing beautifully. And she's writing her own story. So let's keep watching. Let's keep learning. And most importantly... let's let this beautiful sister shine. 🚂🌸🔥 Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿

WEEK 6 and i am as impatient as i could be. This week should be the moment of truth, when it comes to thickness of the buds! 👽👉14/11 Waterday* I upped the BioBloom and TopMax for PK and less BioGrow for nitrogen. They are FROSTY as ever! Very satisfied BioHeaven 4 BioGrow 2 BioBloom 4 TopMax 4 Rootjuice 1 👽👉 15/11 One of the ladies is very hungry and showing signs of needing PK 👽👉 16/11 Atm because the outside climate has a big influence on my indoor climate, lower temperatures at night have been occuring. Battling the temps by having dehumidifier running with heat 👽👉 17/11 Waterday* They got same feed as last time, but giving a bit more volume now 👽👉 18/11 Christmas coming early, frosty times 👽👉 19/11 I had some buds that got too heavy and fell over, Fixed with some natural thread to hold them up 👽👉 20/11 Close to getting another SCROG to hold them up, but i think its time for harvest soon

⭐️⭐️🌲WEEK 4 FLOWER🌲⭐️⭐️ Nutrient Line This Week (all nutrients are mixed direct to reservoir in this order) Front Row AG Part A 3.1g per gallon Front Row AG Part B 2.1g per gallon Front Row AG Phoszyme .4g per gallon Front Row AG Bloom 2.4g per gallon Front Row AG CleanUp .2g per gallon I am not sponsored by Front Row AG or any company for that matter. I simply use the products I’ve come to like and use techniques I’ve come to know work well. Temp 82/ humidity 55-60%/ leaf temp 80 CO2 1500ppm/ PAR 1400/ VPD 1.4 I’ve been using a higher temp higher humidity during flower for a few years now. The plants seem to love it. They are absolutely sucking down CO2 right now. Last week of veg/beginning of flower a 20lb tank lasted 10 days. Now I use 2 in 10 days. You can literally watch them grow by the day at this stage. Plants are fed with drip tubes for 90 seconds 15 minutes after lights on and for 40 seconds 3 hours before lights off. So far very few mistakes have been made and the new Front Row AG nutrients are very very good. If anyone has any questions don’t hesitate to ask. See you next week.

Tops are really showing now not having any issues so far

Ich muss leider bald für 4 Wochen weg mit meinem Dad und musste jetzt ernten weil sich niemand sonst kümmern kann. Die Pflanzen hätten mindestens noch 2 Wochen gebraucht. Schade, dass ich nicht das volle Potential sehen konnte aber die Pflanzen sehen schon echt top aus.

Hello everyone week 5 of flower has passed for this Skywalker haze auto 💥 Mars hydro SP-6500 75% Same feeding schedule have a great day and wish you all happy growing 😎👨‍🌾🏻

Hallo zusammen 🤙. Sie riecht fantastisch. Ich lasse sie noch bis Samstag stehen und dann kommt sie ab. Gebe diese Woche nur noch Wasser.

I topped her like a maniac and just fed 1 nutrient, best budz ever haha i could throw it at a window and it would crack

Little to say, this plant is comming along steady.

Start of week 8. Week 7 went very well, the buds really filled in and packed on weight. Their are tons of red hairs in this Blue Dream beauty and she's got an amazing smell!

Another week under the belt and I’m not sure how much longer to leave these two. Starting to smell a bit more like weed but still waiting on the clear to opaque transition. All I want for Christmas….

Doubled the CalMag dose this week and changed the nutrient solution. The degrading of the already yellowing leaves slowed down and I removed them today. Buds are looking real tasty and I think two more weeks until harvest. Trichomes still clear so fingers crossed. Sticky as f but sadly no purple so far 😕

The tallest pheno is ready and being flushed for a couple of days now, rhe others are close but still consuming nutrients at a strong rate , I think they will take at least 1 more week. They smell very much like gelato as a group but are all very different from one another .

Lovely sweet smell. Colas are
