12/20/24 chopped at day 55 with 80% cloudy and 10%amber and 10% clear or so hung for a couple days and noticed white fuzz forming at the base of the fan leaves coming out the tops colas. so thats a disaster. but these buds are so ridiculously dense that im not surprised. it still sucks. but i bucked everything else off and the stems and now am drying each bud out on a rack and trying to keep the humidity down and to save what i can. 1/4/25 saved a bit over an ounce. 30 grams dry. shes super triched out and hashy feeling when trimming. has deep black peppery notes when smoked but smells creamy and fruity/ tropical especially while

So, every plant goes with its rhythm... I think no1 is about to be harvest or are least flush now. Small yield for sure but plants seem to be ok.

Good week, Cm smells like grape drink, delicious

Still stretching out them girls are , hope they are almost done 😬.. I think the stretch is pretty well done and my 4x4 tent is full of bud sites wow this is gonna be a great finish I think🤘👌 I took my hps of the hangers and attached it directly to the top of the tent for more room . I have the cool tube hps.with lots of air flow so it doesn't get very hot.

Started this week with 1.0 EC and slowly pushed up to 1.4, no signs of overfert. Also added some silicate and dolomite via foliar spray. Trying to find the best setup for this new grow tent

Week 7 day 3. I stopped giving soluble nitrogen today. 1/2 reduction in soluble pk. Adding solubles in water drops my ph perfect so I don’t use ph down in flower. Now today I start adding a little ph down as the 1/2 strength soluble pk brings water to about 7.4, so reduction to 6.9

🌿 Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 6 (Early Flower) 🌱 Flowers Are Taking Over One of the things I've enjoyed most about this 8×8 Adventure is watching every phenotype slowly reveal its own personality. Even though every plant shares the same environment, the same feeding schedule, and the same care, each one tells its own story. Frosted Guava Pheno A has become one of those plants that quietly earns your attention. She has never been the tallest plant in the room or the one demanding the spotlight. Instead, she has grown with remarkable balance, developing a beautiful natural structure that now serves as the perfect foundation for flower production. Last week marked her transition into flowering. This week, there's no longer any doubt. She's officially focused on building buds. 🌸 Week 6 – Bud Development Begins The stretch is now coming to an end, and the plant has begun redirecting her energy exactly where every grower hopes to see it. Flowers. Standing at approximately 101 cm, Frosted Guava has maintained a wonderfully compact yet well-proportioned structure. Every branch has found its place within the canopy, creating a plant that looks organized, balanced, and incredibly healthy from every angle. The small clusters of pistils that appeared last week have now developed into clearly defined bud sites. Each branch is beginning to stack flowers, and the canopy is starting to display that exciting early-flowering look where every top promises something special in the weeks ahead. The pace has changed. Instead of racing upward, she's quietly building outward. And she's doing it beautifully. 🌿 Canopy Development & Training The work invested during vegetative growth continues to pay dividends. Regular Low Stress Training, combined with simple leaf tucking whenever necessary, has allowed nearly every flowering site to receive excellent light exposure without forcing the plant into an unnatural shape. Looking across the canopy, it's easy to appreciate how evenly the branches have developed. The spacing between internodes remains ideal, giving each future cola enough room to mature while maintaining a full, productive canopy. Airflow continues moving freely throughout the plant, reducing shaded areas while allowing every branch to contribute equally to the final harvest. Sometimes less really is more. Rather than constantly correcting the plant, allowing her natural architecture to guide the training has produced a structure that feels effortless. 🌼 Flower Development This week the flowers have noticeably changed character. The bright white pistils continue multiplying across every branch, but now they're gathering into small clusters that clearly resemble the buds they'll soon become. Every day brings a little more volume. A few more calyxes. A few more pistils. A little more definition. It's still early, but the framework of every future cola is becoming easy to recognize. While resin production is only beginning to appear, there's already that familiar feeling every grower loves. The plant is entering the stage where everything starts happening faster. 🍃 Plant Health Health continues to be one of Frosted Guava's strongest qualities. The foliage maintains a rich, healthy green color from the bottom of the canopy right through to the newest growth. Leaf posture remains excellent throughout the day, showing strong turgor and steady transpiration despite the warm summer conditions. The stems have continued thickening nicely, supporting the increasing weight that will soon come as flower production accelerates. Overall, she gives the impression of a plant that's completely comfortable in her environment. No signs of stress. No unnecessary drama. Just steady, confident growth. 💧 Nutrition & Irrigation As flower production begins increasing, Frosted Guava has smoothly transitioned into a feeding program designed to support the demands of early bloom while maintaining healthy vegetative function. This week she's receiving: • Terra Bloom — 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • Power Buds — 1 ml/L • Green Sensation — 1 ml/L Maintaining: • EC: 1.78 mS/cm • pH: 6.0 The AutoPot system continues providing a stable and uninterrupted supply of water and nutrients, allowing the root system to remain active around the clock without experiencing repeated wet and dry cycles. Healthy roots continue supporting healthy flowers. 🌡️ Environment The environment remains remarkably stable, allowing every phenotype in the room to express its genetic potential without unnecessary stress. Current conditions: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • Solution temperature: 21°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂: Approximately 639 ppm Despite the challenges that summer temperatures can bring, the room continues operating as a balanced ecosystem where strong airflow, consistent irrigation, and stable environmental control allow the plants to remain comfortable throughout the entire day. It's a reminder that consistency often produces better results than constantly chasing perfection. 👀 Looking Ahead The coming week should mark another exciting step in Frosted Guava's development. With the stretch nearly behind her, I expect almost all of her energy to shift toward flower production. Bud sites should begin thickening noticeably, individual flowers will continue joining together, and the first visible layer of trichomes should start appearing across the sugar leaves. This is the stage where the structure she's built over the past several weeks begins paying its rewards. The foundation is there. Now it's time to watch her fill it. 🙏 Final Thoughts Week after week, Frosted Guava Pheno A continues proving that a plant doesn't need to dominate the room to stand out. She has developed into one of the most balanced and elegant phenotypes in this entire project, combining healthy growth, excellent structure, and effortless flower development into a plant that's simply enjoyable to grow. Watching her evolve from a tiny seed into a beautifully formed flowering plant under a 12/12 From Seed schedule has been another reminder that every phenotype has its own pace and its own way of expressing itself. Some plants impress with size. Others impress with symmetry. Frosted Guava is quietly doing both in her own unique way, and I'm genuinely excited to see what she'll become over the coming weeks. A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making this incredible project possible, Plagron for providing outstanding nutrition, Future of Grow for powering the room with exceptional lighting, AutoPot for keeping the root zone thriving, TrolMaster for maintaining environmental precision, and to everyone following this journey here on GrowDiaries. Your encouragement, comments, and support continue to make this 8×8 Adventure even more rewarding. Until next week... Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💚

6/13/2023 Week 10- Day 1 of Flower (Day 131 overall) (Day 70 of Flower) Auto Pilot Day 6.. Checked the Trichomes and the bud density and both are looking good.. Definitely needs a little more time for the Trichomes to be where I like, so based on my check I think we are still looking right around the end of the competition 22June to be done and ready for harvest. I do like that the fade is coming in the leaves nicely, so my chart I think is dropping off the Nitrogen exactly like it is supposed to. 6/14/2023 Week 10- Day 2 of Flower (Day 132 overall) Auto Pilot Day 7.. Decided I would take some contrasting pics today with my light up to 100 and my light all the way on Dim. I hope you enjoy the pics. 6/15/2023 Week 10- Day 3 of Flower (Day 133 overall) Auto Pilot Day 8.. Decided to take a look at the Trichome's today and Check to see where they are at and honestly if I might ho ahead and start my flush tomorrow and harvest on Sunday. 6/16/2023 Week 10- Day 4 of Flower (Day 134 overall) (Day 74 of Flower) Today I pulled an Armageddon however instead of darkness they are going to get 48 hours of light. The reason why they are going to get light instead of dark is when I was taking out the netting a lot of the buds were so heavy they fell over and exposed some areas I really want to get some light to... so 48 hours of light at 40% while I watch what should be a beautiful final fade as the plant eats up the last Nutes. If anything goes wrong I can abort take the photos and cut so will pay really close attention to how it is looking over the next 48 hours. Added 30 Gallons of PH only Water. Reduced Lighting to 40% removed program time off. 48 hours of light. 6/17/2023 Week 10- Day 5 of Flower (Day 135 overall) (Day 75 of Flower) I had someone tell me that a few growers had done as I did and Gone Armageddon on the plants. Filling it with PH only and said the plants did not respond well and they were taken out of the comp at the very end because they felt like the pictures just wouldn't come out right. Even though I did go Armageddon, The PPM is at 353PPM with the residue of what was left in the buckets after draining as well as what I am getting from the TAP so I think they are doing good but I am checking them every few hours to see how they seem to be doing and I think they are doing good still and are on track. I also started prepping the area for the pics tomorrow T-24 Hours until Chop 6/18/2023 Week 10- Day 6 of Flower (Day 136 overall) (Day 76 of Flower) (Harvest Day) What a day.. what a day.. what a day.. as I was setting up and trying to figure out how I was going to get my pics #3 stems started breaking, it fell over and other stems broke.. So no really stunning competition photo for her, she had such a nice purple fade.. #2 stayed up in the Tent so that is the one I had to go with to submit for the contest. I wet trimmed them as they went into the tent and they took up three rows hanging in tent. I also decided I wanted to try some so I put a little in the freeze dryer for a 48 hour smoke test.. I will weigh it and add that to my total weight for the plants when it is all done.

Un altra settimana è passata senza problemi...grazie alla mia perseveranza nel curarla e debellare i ragnetti Rossi che bastardelli mi sono arrivati anche dentro al box... sicuramente c'è li ho portati io involontariamente quando sono andato a vedere delle piante di un amico che erano impregnate di ragnetti e ragnatele sui fiori....vabbè ora devo sbattermi un po' più ma non lascerò che mi rovinino la mia terapia 💪👍🙏🕉️🙏... Boom Shiva Shankar 🕉️ belle le mie coccinelle 🐞 che mi tengono pulita la mia terapia

Well Everyone!! Here we are! 😁 Nearly at the end of the Eternity Grow Cup journey! 🙌🔥👽🙌🔥 Just want to first say a massive Thankyou to Zamnesia & Plagron for letting me compete in this contest. Would not be here without you! absolute legends😎 I had an absolute blast making the videos every week and showcasing the Grow Huge Thankyouuu to everyone who liked, followed and commented on the diary! I have been hooked for weeks on this! and its thanks to all you guys! haha Much love!! 💚💚 I Appreciate it soo much. 💚💚💚 I have Harvested 2 of the Runtz first which were darked out for 3 days in a 3x3. We have 3 more in flower for another week or 2 as they are little behind schedule! There are 2 plants which I will be flushing next week as they have really packed out now. We got 1 straggler but looks like she's fattening up good! and will follow suit very soon! 😎 🌳Plant 1 Harvested and Drying now The size of this momma Runtz is mad! After loosing one of the main stems in early flower, she powered through and made 2 massive fat colas! Hardly ran into any problems with this plant other than loosing a main stem which turned out to be glorious in the end! 💥 She is now drying in the 3x3. I'm aiming for 10 days drying. Smell is absolutely unreal! I would normally do longer but as I have took most of the main fan leaves off I think it will be a bit quicker this harvest. 🌳Plant 2 Harvested and Drying now - Another whopper! super sticky colas all over it! I decided to leave a few more fan leaves on this one for now but may take more this week aiming for 10 days again! couldn't' be happier with the results, Hardly ran into any nutrient problems throughout. We had a few pale leaves early flower due to overwatering but she soon recovered and powered through! Smells like victory! Could not be happier with the Results so far! 2 down 3 to go! cant wait to get a weigh on them fat colas! I will take some more snaps over the next few weeks and show the dried and final trimmed bud of the 2 harvested and hopefully get them uploaded before the contest time expires. First time using the Green Sensation from Plagron! I will 100% be investing in some more or maybe win some lmao! I can see a dramatic difference in Weight and health of the Autos grown! Green stems and healthy leaves , PHAT BUDS!!! 😜😜😜 3 more Plants to go not long now!!!! I Will add another flowering week in next 2 days and show the other 3 still in action! Going to Update this harvest page in the next 2 weeks with dry weigh results and Smoke review to follow!! Update 25/05/25 3 remaining Plants 🌳🌳🌳 have now been harvested and curing in the grove bags. there are 2 plants that have a very minty fresh smell, smells well good when u open the bags! hits your nostrils hard!

Good luck to everyone in the contest! 👍 Peace Out! Gram_Solo 👽

Overall, this is 9th week of flower for the entire F'22 grow season. With French Macaron beginning week 7 flower and Afgooey #1 and #2 in mid-week 5 of flower. The Afgooey #3 is just starting to form tiny budlets after an extensive defoliation as she's squatty with lots of foliage. Updates & Observations - a lot of maintenance this week from continual ph'ing and flushing as Afgooey #2 has joined the French Macaron with low ph runoff readings. Given I'm growing in a living soil mix with periodic top dressings and teas every 7-10 days, I'm stumped. So, no more feedings for the French Macaron until harvest. Decided that next watering I will flush both girls with fresh rain water captured/stored which I have stored outside in 30 gallon barrels. Rain water tested at 7.2 ph, which to me is good enough for the flushing. It's raining for 3-4 days next week, so this will exhaust existing supply and replace with fresh rain water. Perfect timing. Will update next week.

Well as always I'm super happy with what the team over at @fastbuds are doing ! To be honest they were my first auto flowering brand I tried and they sponsors that grow because they like helping growers. Easy to approach and great customer service I have not been disappointed yet and this strain here is a keeper . I wish I could bottle the scent up and keep it forced 🙂. In the beginning I wanted to grow her out in a Christmas themed container do she was put into a snowman ⛄ deal placed into a 2 gallon pot . The soil and all additives are organic , living soil a Canadian company blend . She honestly was knocked out twice from her container and her size is tall but not many buds I stressed her out a lot . If she wouldn't have fallen out and been in a 4-5 gallon container then I would be even happier . The scent alone makes up for the size I could smell it all day . Never have I smelt an auto flowering strain like this before . Over fruity like ripened strawberries and lots of gas to be had as well . Today I decided to chop her down and make room for the next generation a head . The fact is that I enjoy all strains and don't care whether it's an auto or a photoperiod this company makes some fine plants and have been in my garden for almost two years now they are my go to auto flowering company ..cheers We got a smoke report going now and it's a bomb smoke I can't believe this was what I got . So much fruity and earthy undertones with such sticky buds I'm in love .. wish I had this whole plant in my garden it's fire smoke a great indica buzz

🌸 Entramos en la 4ª semana de floración de nuestras chicas. Las plantas están geniales, con muy buen aspecto general, estructura bonita y flores que siguen avanzando a buen ritmo. 🌱✨ El cultivo se mantiene estable y las chicas presentan un buen color, buen vigor y un olor floral/frutal todavía leve, pero que empieza a hacerse notar poco a poco. Por ahora, todo marcha como esperábamos. Seguimos observando su evolución y disfrutando de esta etapa, que cada semana se pone más interesante. 🍓?🌸 🐗🌰

Still going...sigh... 3/18 ; did a water change and man is ut getting awkward getting her out of the tent to do water changes. I might drill and put a valve on the very bottom of the bucket next grow to make water changes a little easier in the future. 4 gallons of well water with 4 tsp of maxi grow and 1 tsp of Kool bloom. I added 1 tbl of calmag for the hell of it. The older leaves are looking a little stressed. The buds seem to be swelling to me, but strange enough, seems like the smell is decreasing. But what there is, is very fruity.ph to 6.1

Week 7 there hasn’t been any changes for either of the girls. Girl #1 is still looking the same. It seems she has finally stopped stretching. Looking forward to seeing her bulk up in the coming weeks. Girl #2 still hasn’t showed any signs of flowering. I’m gonna continue to be patient with her in hopes of her just being a very late bloomer. Everything has been running smoothly. I will start to introduce bloom nutes in the next coming weeks. I didn’t expect girl#1 to get so big but I’m not complaining. This has been such a pleasing and educational experience. Thank all of those who have viewed my diary. Thank you again for your support.

Still in the process of drying and curing I wait for the snap Branch drying and they're not there yet but I two of the branches were ready and I cut them and taste them even though not cure was smooth and delicious. I did not collect popcorns I kept everything in small pieces and put it in a pot for edibles. One of them main colas waiting 23.75 grams. After curing this it is a very enjoyable and smooth blueberry smoke with a very strong THC content plus the very big yield and a very good recovery from abuse make this plant a real champ
