👉The final dry weight, which was 369g (13oz) is just buds, no trim or larf. Just Good big buds. Great plant overall. Had a phosphorus issue that lingered, it foxtailed at the end and in the last day hermie bitz appeared on almost every branch end cola. Sturdy branches, lots of food factories. Wonderful aroma that wasn't as stanky as most. Spend 4 hours trimming. Started at the bottom and worked my way up. I put the end cola of each branch on its own label clothes pin and hung on a rack. Each cola was weighed wet and cataloged. after 24 hrs I started putting each cola in a paper bag and the net buds in a larger bag. It took 5 days to reduce the dry weight to under 30%. When they hit this mark they went into the jars which were labeled according to their documented location. I figured the weigh reduction percentage by comparing weighs from the initial wet trimmed weight. In each jar I also added a hygrometer. Surprisingly the RH of almost ever jar was under 58%. None of the jars required any burping to remove excess humidity. At that point I added moisture 62% moisture packs and put the jars in the closet. I sampled bud J till this writing. It didn't start getting tasty till the 4 week mark.

Week 0 marks the start of the Wedding Cake grow. The seed germinated successfully and emerged cleanly from the medium. Early development looks healthy and balanced, with the seedling standing upright and showing no signs of stress or stretching. The cotyledons opened properly, and the first signs of true leaf development are beginning to appear. At this stage, the plant is focusing mainly on root establishment, laying the foundation for strong vegetative growth later on. ⸻ 💧 Watering • Very light watering only • Medium kept slightly moist, never saturated • No nutrients added yet 🌡️ Environment • Temperature: ~24–25 °C • Humidity: ~70–80% • Gentle airflow to support stem strength

Absolutely love this cultivar, make sure you have adequate ventilation as these buds are very resinous and dense. It was a very nice plant to grow even though it was small in structure made up for the weight in the buds

After 12 weeks of flowering and an incredible fragrance, I cut off the larger top blooms. The smaller ones that were covered will be given another 1-2 weeks to ripen. Incredibly beautiful colors, pink-purple-green colored flowers The larger fan leaves were quickly cut off. The scissors were covered in purple resin. The wet flowers were carefully sorted into the drying net. Now they can be dried in the dark at 19°C and a humidity of 50-55%

D43 - At the beginning of the second week of flower and the girls are loving life. Overall, I'm happy with the flat canopy, but there's one branch higher than the rest on the first girl. I've never super-cropped an auto, so I figured, why not give it a go and see what happens? It's only one branch after all and we still have weeks of flower to go. I also lightly defoliated the girls further. Nothing extreme, just cleaning up here and there. I've been lazy and haven't brewed any compost tea in a while, so I hand-watered the girls with 1.25-liters of water @ pH 6.3 with 25 ml EM-1 to boost the microbes in the soil. I'll brew some tea in a few days and feed the girls then. D45 - Minor LST. The first girl is bouncing back nicely from her super cropping. D46 - I started brewing a compost tea last night using a pretty basic recipe of worm-castings, rock dust, kelp meal, and molasses. Today each girl got 1.25-liters of tea @ pH 6.5. I set up automation to control the RH in the tent using an Inkbird controller a while ago, where the humidifier and the extraction fan are hooked up to the controller. If the RH goes above the set value, then the fan kicks in to extract the humid air, while if the RH goes below, then the humidifier starts. With a stable temperature, it works like a ghetto VPD controller where the tent is in the ideal VPD range during the 20 hours of light but still in an acceptable range during the dark hours. Controlling the environment is always a headache in a tiny tent, but this system works exceptionally well, considering it is cheap and basic. D49 - We have reached the end of the second week of flower and everything is going great in the tent. The grow is pretty much running itself now that most training is done and the watering system takes care of the irrigation. I'm still dialing in the system though.

🍮 Chem Brûlée – Pheno B Week 9 | She May Not Be the Greenest… But She's Bulking Beautifully Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And this week, Chem Brûlée Pheno B has a slightly different story to tell. She's not the greenest girl in the room. She's not carrying that deep, lush green that I absolutely love seeing on a flowering plant. But... she's still growing. She's still building. She's still producing beautiful flowers. And she's still showing us exactly why growing multiple phenotypes together is so fascinating. Sometimes a plant doesn't give you the picture you expected. Sometimes she gives you a question. And the best thing we can do is listen. 🌿 A Quick Look Back Chem Brûlée Pheno B has always been one of the more distinctive expressions of this genetic line. Compared with her sister, Pheno A, she's taller, more elongated and more open. She has developed a very different architecture, with flowering sites distributed along those longer branches rather than creating the more compact structure we've seen from Pheno A. Last week, she received some selective defoliation to open the canopy and give the developing flowers a little more room. And I'm happy to say: she handled it well. There was no dramatic reaction. No major setback. She simply continued doing what she does. Growing. Flowering. And now... bulking. 🌸 🍃 Not the Greenest Girl in the Room Let's talk about the obvious thing first. Her foliage isn't showing the deep, rich green that I personally like to see. It's a little lighter. And when you're looking at twelve different genetics growing under essentially the same conditions, those differences become very easy to notice. Especially when one plant is standing right beside another phenotype that may be carrying a completely different shade of green. But here's the important part: I'm not going to invent a problem just because I don't love the colour. She's still growing. She's still producing flowers. She's still developing. She's still responding to the environment. And that's why we're observing rather than immediately changing everything around her. Could this phenotype simply have a different nutritional demand? Absolutely. Could genetics be contributing to the way she presents? Of course. Could other environmental factors play a role? Potentially. But the whole-plant picture matters much more than one characteristic. And right now, her whole-plant picture says: "I'm still working." So we're listening. Twelve Genetics Don't Get Twelve Different Worlds This is one of the things I really want to emphasize in this project. We're running a lot of plants. Twelve different genetic stories. More than twenty plants in total. And they're sharing the same room, the same general environmental conditions, the same irrigation philosophy and the same reservoir. That means we can't look at every single plant and say: "Okay, you want something different? Let's completely redesign the grow just for you." That's not the experiment. The whole point is consistency. We provide the same foundation... and then we watch how the genetics respond. Some plants are more demanding. Some are more relaxed. Some stay dark green. Some are naturally lighter. Some stretch. Some stay compact. Some drink more. Some drink less. And some... like Chem Brûlée Pheno B... simply keep telling us: "I'm going to do this my way." 😂 And honestly? That's exactly what I want to see. 🌸 But Look at Those Flowers... Because while the foliage may not be giving me the lush green I'm looking for... the flowers are giving me plenty to smile about. She's bulking. The developing flowers are becoming increasingly substantial, and those long branches are now carrying some beautiful flower structures. The pistils remain prominent, while the buds are gaining volume and definition. This is one of those stages where you can really see the plant transitioning from: "I'm flowering." to: "I'm building flowers." And that difference is huge. We're no longer just watching flowering sites appear. We're watching them develop. We're watching them gain substance. We're watching the plant put her energy behind the flowers that she's already created. And Pheno B is doing exactly that. ❄️ The Frost Is Coming Along The resin development is also becoming increasingly noticeable. When you get close with the camera, the flowers start revealing another layer of the story. The sugar leaves are becoming increasingly frosty, and the developing flowers are starting to take on that beautiful sparkling appearance that makes macro photography so addictive. From a distance, you see: a flowering plant. From close up, you see: an entire little universe. That's something I never get tired of. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B is giving us some beautiful subjects to photograph this week. ✂️ How Did She Handle the Defoliation? Pretty well. And that's worth documenting. Last week, we gave her a selective cleanup. Nothing extreme. We removed foliage where it made sense, particularly where leaves were contributing to unnecessary shading or crowding. The objective wasn't to strip her. It was simply to open the architecture she'd already created. And now, looking at her this week, I like the result. The structure is easier to see. The flowers are easier to appreciate. And she's continued developing without missing a beat. That's a good reminder that intervention should always have a reason behind it. We're not defoliating because: "It's Tuesday and apparently Tuesday is defoliation day." 😂 We're doing it when the plant and the canopy give us a reason. 🌿 Her Architecture Is Doing the Work One of the things I really like about Pheno B is her naturally open structure. She's around 130 cm, making her taller than her Chem Brûlée sister, but she's not just tall for the sake of being tall. She's created a very different architecture. Longer branches. More vertical growth. Flowering sites distributed through that structure. And now, as those flowers bulk up, you can really start appreciating what she built earlier in the run. The plant has already made her decisions. Now she's investing in them. And that's why I'm not interested in forcing her to look like Pheno A. They're sisters. They're not twins. 👃 The Story Is Still Developing The aromatic profile is also something I'm continuing to watch. At this stage, I don't want to pretend that the final terpene expression has arrived. We're still watching the flowers mature. But that's part of the fun. With phenotypes growing beside each other under the same conditions, these subtle differences can become incredibly interesting as flowering progresses. The structure is different. The foliage expression is different. The flowering architecture is different. And eventually, the aroma may give us another piece of the puzzle. So for now... I'm simply taking notes. Watching. Photographing. And waiting. ⚗️ Feeding – Consistency Is Part of the Experiment The feeding strategy remains consistent across the room. We're continuing with: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L With Lemon Kick / pH Plus used as required. The current readings are approximately: ⚗️ pH – 6.0 ⚡ EC – 2.0 mS/cm And this is where the philosophy of the 8×8 Adventure really matters. Pheno B may be one of the girls that appears to demand more. But we're not going to create a completely separate feeding world for her while running a shared system with the rest of the room. Instead, we're watching how she adapts. We're looking at the plant. We're looking at the flowers. We're looking at the new growth. And we're looking at the progression over time. Because one photograph tells you what the plant looks like today. A diary tells you how she got there. 🌡️ The Environment The room continues running with remarkably consistent conditions: 🌡️ Day temperature – 29°C 🌙 Night temperature – 25°C 💧 Relative humidity – 60% 🌱 Substrate temperature – 26°C 💦 Solution temperature – 25°C ⚗️ pH – approximately 6.0 ⚡ EC – approximately 2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂ – 639 ppm 💡 Light schedule – 12/12 ? Pot size – 15 L 💧 Watering – approximately 1.3 L/plant/24h And once again, this consistency is important. The environment isn't changing dramatically from plant to plant. So when we see differences... the genetics become increasingly interesting. That's the experiment. 💡 Same Light. Different Plant. The lighting setup continues providing strong overhead illumination, with additional light reaching the inner and lower portions of the canopy. And this phenotype's more open structure works nicely with that arrangement. She's got flowers distributed throughout the plant rather than packed into one dense wall. The selective cleanup has also made some of those structures easier to see. And when you look at the photographs... there's a lot happening. She's not finished. She's not even close. But she's definitely building. 📸 Behind the Lens This week was another reminder of why I love photographing this project. When I look at Pheno B with my eyes, the first thing I notice is the lighter foliage. But when I put the camera close to the flowers... that's not what I see anymore. I see structure. I see pistils. I see developing resin. I see flowers getting bigger. I see branches carrying more weight. And I see a phenotype becoming increasingly recognizable. That's one of the reasons I try not to judge a plant from one characteristic. Step back... look at the whole plant. Then get close... and look at the flowers. Sometimes the story changes completely. 🌿 She's Adapting And that's probably my favourite part of this week's update. She's adapting. She's not necessarily giving us the exact expression I would choose. She's not the deepest green. She's one of the more demanding plants in the room. But she's adapting to the environment we've created. And she's continuing to grow. That matters. Because the purpose of this project isn't to prove that every phenotype behaves identically. It's almost the opposite. We're giving them the same stage... and watching how differently they perform on it. Chem Brûlée Pheno B is showing us: "This is how I play the game." And I'm listening. 🔮 Looking Ahead So what am I expecting from her next? More bulking. More flower definition. More resin. And hopefully an increasingly obvious expression of what this phenotype is capable of. I'm also going to continue watching the foliage carefully. Not panicking. Not ignoring it. Just watching. If the plant continues developing flowers beautifully while maintaining functional foliage and healthy growth, that's valuable information. If other signs begin appearing alongside the colour change, then we'll have another conversation. For now... the flowers are telling a very positive story. And I'm going to let her keep writing it. 🍮 Different Isn't Bad This is something I've learned over and over again throughout this adventure. When you grow one plant by itself, you can easily assume that whatever you see is simply the plant. But when you grow twelve genetics together? Suddenly you have references everywhere. One plant is dark green. Another is lighter. One stretches. Another stays compact. One produces enormous leaves. Another produces completely different foliage. One drinks aggressively. Another is more conservative. And then you have Chem Brûlée Pheno B. She's somewhere in there saying: "I'm going to make beautiful flowers while making you think about my foliage." 😂 And honestly... fair enough. That's what phenotype hunting is about. 🌱 She's Not Perfect. She's Interesting. And maybe that's the best way to describe her this week. She's not perfect. Her green isn't the lush colour I personally love. She's demanding. She's different. But she's also beautiful. She's adapting. She's continuing to grow. She's bulking. She's producing flowers. She's building frost. And she's telling us a story that is completely her own. I wouldn't want to erase that. Because if every plant behaved exactly the same... there wouldn't be much of a phenotype hunt, would there? 💚 Let Her Shine So this week, I'm not going to compare Chem Brûlée Pheno B to the greenest girl in the room. I'm not going to compare her to her sister and ask why she isn't built the same. I'm going to look at her. At approximately 130 cm... with her elongated structure... her developing flowers... her increasing frost... her lighter foliage... and her unmistakable personality... she's doing her thing. And she's doing it beautifully. The flowers are getting bigger. The structure is becoming more impressive. The resin is building. And the plant is still moving forward. That's enough for me. Sometimes the most interesting plants aren't the ones that give you exactly what you expected. They're the ones that make you stop... look... and say: "Okay, girl. Show me what you've got." 🍮🔥 🙏 Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚 This project keeps teaching me something new every single week. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a place to document these journeys, compare experiences and learn from one another. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Chem Brûlée genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover how differently these phenotypes can express themselves. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting the room. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for powering this jungle from above. Thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into the lower and inner areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us maintain consistency behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person who stops to look at these plants and wonder what happens next. You're part of the adventure. And this week, Chem Brûlée Pheno B is reminding us of something I think is incredibly important: A plant doesn't have to be perfect to be fascinating. She may not be showing me the lushest green. She may be one of the more demanding girls in the room. But she's adapting. She's growing. She's bulking. She's building beautiful flowers. And she's becoming more and more herself every week. So let's give this girl the spotlight she deserves. Let's let her shine. Let's see where she takes us. Because the story isn't finished yet. Not even close. 🍮🌸❄️ Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week as Chem Brûlée Pheno B continues writing her own chapter in the 8×8 Adventure. 🚂🍮🌿

F47, riego pH 6.3 y EC 1.5, cogollos grandes y densos, los tricomas ya presentan tonos lechosos, a un par de días de cortar. Bajé el rango de temperatura para que en las noches sea más frío, y las plantas se adapten al supuesto invierno que se acerca, de está manera, generando más tricomas. F50, las temperaturas mas bajas han aumentado los tricomas, los cogollos han aumentado su densidad, no se ven cambios en tamaño, pero algunas ramas se están doblando debido al aumento de peso. En 2 días más aproximadamente se hará el corte para empezar el secado.

9/10 Went and shook the plants off. I don't think it rained. I think it's just dew. Plants with ailments seem to be progressing well and it looks like they'll outrun the pathogens. It may not be a banner year yield wise but the quality will be great it looks like. GMO is stacking up real nice. The ones in further flower are swelling more and more everyday. Earwigs MAY be back because I noticed a couple of plants where I left a tiny little branch on the bottom have been lollipopped on tje sherb pie and rather quickly too. I suppose it could be leaves dieing and rotting bit I doubt it. If they are here there aren't many and most plants are too far in flower for them to bother. They eat the lower newly developing shoots. Not big dense buds. Luckily. I noticed some pm on the gmo with pm. Looks like it's time for another treatment of k bicarb. I'll probably do that tonight. I'll keep this updated. WENT BACK OVER AND DEFOLIATED A BUNCH OF STUFF. ITS TIME FOR ANOTHER APP OF K BICARB. I CHECKED THE SHERB PIE AND IT DOESNT NEED TO BE WATERED. IT WAS STILL VERY HEAVY. IM THINKING I MAY HAVE EARWIGS THAT ARE FEASTUNG ON LOWER BRANCHES THAT SHOULDVE BEEN PRUNED. I NOTICED SOME LARFY SHIT THAT KOOKS LIKE NEW SHOOTS WERE CHEWED. LUCKILY THEY DONT SEEM TO BOTHER DEVELOPED BUDS. ESPECIALLY ROCK HARD BUDS. I'LL DO SOME RESEARCH AND DO SOME FORM OF APPLICATION FOR THE PM SPOTS I SAW AND THE SEPTORIA I KNOW IS THERE. IM SUPER GRATEFUL THOUGH. THESE ARE VERY HARD TO GROW STRAINS AND I THINK ILL KNOCK IT OUT OF THE PARK. Also thinking of switching to cha ching shortly on the toasted toffy and the event horizon that's furthest along. 9/11 I Didn't water anything today because things still seemed heavy. I'm noticing the same thing that happened a few years back. Lower secondary or tertiary branches are getting stripped on a couple plants. They never touch the developed buds they want the new shoots. If IT IS ear wigs they are impossible to fight. I put poison down and d.e. around those plantscand we'll see. It could also be rot from dying leaves. I need to treatcsome of the plants with a longer flowering time with plant doctor. I'm going over today to spend a few hours working in the garden. I'll apply something I just don't know WHAT yet. One event horizon looks like it tried to reveg AGAIN which is super weird . I just see a lot of one and 3 finger leaves. It will probably turn out to be great. The other event horizon looks like its going to be incredible. The toasted toffy is getting close too. Temps only reached 62° yesterday. It took FOREVER to shake these plants off. Time to get the leaf blower out. I'm going to bring my trich scope when I go over today. I wanna look at tgat event horizon. Pistols are retracting on the top flowers. This may be a multiple stage harvest. I'll keep this updated. UPDATE: WENT OVER AT FOUR AND WATERED. I MIGHTVE BEEN ABLE TO HOLD OFF UNTIL TOMORROW MORNING BUT I HAVE PLANS EARLY MORNING. I ALSO DEFOLIATED QUITE A BIT. BUDS ARE SWELLING CONSIDERABLY. THE SHERB PIE HAS TURNED COMPLETELY PURPLE. IT HASNT HAD ANY FLOWERS ON IT BUT NOW IT HAS FLOWERS BIGGER THAN A QUARTER! THESE PLANTS ARE VIGEROUSLY FLOWERING. I NEED TO CHECK THE TRICHS ON A COUPLE PLANTS AS THEY DONT HAVE MUCH TIME LEFT. AS I WAS DEFOLIATED I NOTICED THAT SOMWTHING HAD STRIPPED FRESH BUDSITES ON SOME LOWER BRANCHES. IN YEARS PAST THATS ALWAYS BEEN EAR WIGS WHICH ARE IMPISSIBLE TO DEAL WITH. THEY USUALLY DONT TOUCH THE BIG BUDS THOUGH. TJEY LIKE THE FRESY SHOOTS. ILL GO OUT AT NIGHT AND SEE IF THIS IS THE CASE. ITS ONLYVHAPPENING ON A COUPLE PLANTS BUT STILL. THE EVENT HORIZON IN THE MIDDLE IS GROWING DIFFERENT THAN ITS SISTER. YOU CAN TELL THE STRAIN IS THE SAME BUT THIS SEEMED TO REVEG (AGAIN) BECAUSE IM SEEING SMALL FULLY DEVELOPED BUDS THAT I DONT REALLY SEE CONNECTING. CRAZY TRICHS THOUGH. IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE HOW IT COMES OUT. I TREATED THE GMO WITH WPM WITH A QTR GALLON OF K BICARBONATE FOLIAR SPRAY WITH A DROP OF DAWN FOR A SURFICANT. 9/12 Shook everything off and then used the leaf blower to try to better dry them. Weather is lookingvyo be good for the next couple weeks. Perfect finishing weather for my two that are furthest in flower. I may have to do a staged harvest. Some BOTTOM branches on e.h. are FAT and have trichs on trichs. I'll have to use my scope. I'm switching to cha ching next feed for the three furyhest in flower. Maybe four. The sherb pie had NO flowers last week but it's exploding with really compact buds. The whole plant turned purple. I need to be careful of botrytis with this weather. I've been pretty good about leaving and removing any dead or dying leaves. Even the plant in the ten is filling out nice. I have SOMETHING (behaving like earwigs) and eating "fresh" shoots. It's like lollipopping the new growth on a couple plants. I'll becstaying at the grow from now forward so I'll go out tonight and see what I found. The poison I put down seems to be gone. Anyway I'm very grateful for what I've got. I'm update as I go. 9/13 It's sprinkling a half hour trom my grow. I think it's supposed to be nice though. I found some botrytis on two plants. Two are so close to finishing that I need to closely watch them. I don't want botrytis. I applied k bicarb to the middle gmo as I saw a spot of pm. I spent a ton of time defoliating. This cold weather has brought the fade much faster. Trichs are looking good. WENT THROUGH THE PLANTS AND DEFOLIATED A SHIT TON. APPARENTLY THIS EARLY FADE IS NORMAL THIS YEAR. AT LEAST IN ALL MY CANNABIS GROUPS. WENT THROUGH EVERYTJING! STILL HAVE THE MIDDLE EVENT HORIZON I WANT TOO TIE DOWN BUT I DID A LOT OF DEFOLIATION. THIS ALLOWED ME TO FIND A FEW PIECES OF BOTRYTIS. ON MY PLANTS THAT ARE ALMOST DONE. WE HAVE GOOD WEATHER FOR A LITTLE BIT BUT I MAY HAVE REACHED DIMINISHING RETURNS ON A COUPLE. THAT E.V. AND THE TOASTED TOFFY I DONT WANT GETTING WET. THEY ARE TOO DENSE. TRICHS ARE ALL MILKY AND THEYRE SWELLING. IM SLEEPING ON IT BUT IM ALMOST POSITIVE IM GOING TO DO A SELECTIVE HARVEST ON THOSE TWO. IM NOT LETTI G SHIT ROT AND AGTER LOOKING AT THESE UNDER A SCOPE I WOULDS TAKEN THEM YEARS AGO. GMO IS FROSTY AS HELL. EXTREMELY ARONATIC GARDEN. ILL KEEP THIS UPDATED. Decided to hold off feeding and watering. Defoliated a shit ton throughout the day. Around five I noticed that my shittiest GMO with the yellow leaves had a couple dead interior branches. Upon closer inspection it looked like grey mold. A few tiny buds were destroyed but the branch needed to be removed. Jot any big loss but if it's in the shit that doesn't matter than it's around the shit that does. Found info on event horizon flowering time. Middle of September until middle of October. That could be why I'm seeing coke cans on the bottom branches of that phenome. I've got some decisions to make. I mixed up enough water to water in the morning. I'll mix up feed in the morning. Tje garden has gotten a lot of attention lately. I hope it pays off. I'm leaning on a multi staged harvest of the event horizon amd toasted toffy but we'll 9/14 Hurries morning. Mixed water for this morning last night. WATERED AND FED EVERYTHING (BUT TOASTED TOFFY AND EVENT HORIZON #2 DUE TO THEM BEING CHOPPED SOON.) Everything got a gallon of water and a qtr of food. I had to cut a couple small interior secondary branches on my shottiest GMO due to the appearance of grey mold. I also found some botrytis in both the event horizon and toasted toffy that I plan to take the tops of today. I scoped them and I'm planning to do a staged harvest. Trichs are milky with some amber. Everything is blowing up! I'm not sure what's happening but like it previous years there's a couple plants with leaves dieing near bud sites and an overall yellow appearance. Maybe it's late stage septoria. I cant isolate it due to local laws but if I have to I'll deal with it. Nothing else had anything like that. I hace noticed SOMETHING nocturnal that can eat a small branch and leave it bare. Also eat the small newly forming shoots at the bottom of plants. I shouldve taken off ALL the larfy stuff as it draws bugs but I did things a like different with each plant this year. I'm going to go through the plants again today and I'll update what I decide. Chances are the top half of those two plants are coming down. I'll do a video. 9/15 I'll have to add pics and videos tomorrow. Last night I did a final check of the trichs on event horizon #2 and toasted toffy. Everything looked great so I proceeded to do a "wet trim" outside (ill use the leaf blower to clean up) and cut the tops off the plant. I know this injures tje plant but it also makes them go crazy thinking they are dying and the buds and trichs swell. I had one plant last year I got two harvests off and a bunch of fresh frozen for concentrates. I looked this morning and I madecthe right decision. These plants are DONE. I've got another event horizon but it's not quite there yet. I'm going to leave it as long as I can. If the injured plants pick up pm or something (already had septoria) then the flower will be used for extracts or I'll do a Cervantes wash. I imagine concentrates though. One GMO isn't doing as good as the rest. Yesterday I had to cut three branches off due to grey mold on the stalk. If laws allowed it I'd isolate that plant. Luckily since I spend so much time going through the garden I'm able to find this kind of stuff. The GMO'S look wonderful (even the one with some yellow leaves that I cut the branches off) . K bicarb has kept pm at bay so far. This strain has TONS of trichs. It's like trich on trich on trich. I can't wait to try it. It smells amazing. Sherb pie is completely purple with rock hard buds that smell amazing. It's quality over quantity this year. The big one in the 50 (I think red runtz) is swelling more everyday. I'm going to switch to ch ching soon. The plant in the 10 had TOTALLY SUPRISED ME. I've never grown a plant lime this. It started out with dark purple in the middle now buds are swelling and calyxes are EVERYWHERE! This plant is growing extremely fast! You'll see what I mean when I put the pics and the videos up. I'm not going to do the event horizon harvest until I get both plants and all of both plants. It will be a while before I finish the toasted toffy one as well. 9/16 I'm glad I took those plants. Weather is good but plants were soaked thos morning. I need to go out at night and see what is eating new shoots. Flowers are looking great. I need to do another app of k bocarb sometime. I'm suprised the pm has pretty much stayed with that one plant. That two other GMO's flanking it are doing awesome! Purple, sticky stinky. It's got the whole package. The one in the 50 has some huge flowers that won't require much longer. The one invthe 10 has some time left. This is clearly a sativa dominant hybrid. The buds are swelling like crazy. It went from NO buds to having little purple calyxes to flowers that look like cat-tails! I can't wait to see what rhis year brings. Once I get things dry and manicured I'll give you guys a look at how the first stage of the first harvest went. I'm super happy. Spent a large part of this morning shaking plants by handcand removing any dead leaves or anything that could cause rot then I went over them with a leaf blower. I'll need to water tonight I imagine. WATERED AROUND 3:00 PM. MY FAVORITE GMO STARTED DROPPING. WATERED EVERYTHING A GALLON EXCEPT I SPLIT ONE GALLON ON THE PLANTS THAT HAD BEEN CUT. IM EXTREMELY TIRED BUT I NEED TO GO OUT AT NIGHT AND SEE IF I CAN FIND EARWIGS CRAWLING UP THE STALKS. WEATHER STILL LOOKS GOOD. BUDS SWELLING PISTOLS RETRACTING AND MORE AND MORE LEAVES DYING. I CANT BELIEVE THE SIZE OF THAT SATIVA LEANING HYBRID IN THE TEN!

Shes just trucking along as batman has said before all I do is water her with Ph water and that's it all the nutrients were added to the soil so shes taking care of all that by herself. Batman cant wait to see some real bud growth hoping for a nice harvest considering shes just a single plant

Trop Cherry #8 x BeeJayz hasn’t been topped, I transplanted the girls this week from a 1 gallon pot to a 3 gallon pot. Trop Cherry was in a plastic pot but now in a fabric pot. Plants seem to be growing well.

Not much to say this week , she’s doing really well, last week I noticed which seemed to be nute burn she didn’t like the 1/2 dose of bites so I’ll go back to 1/4 dose on next feed but last feed I just gave her plain water which was on the 8th, She’s due a feed tomorrow going by the soil and the days since last water , I have also done some defoliation today , removed some of the larger fan leaves which was blocking the lower foliage, I only removed four leaves don’t want to stress her to much , Will up date next Sunday !
