It's week 3 of the Veg stage Take care of them as usual, watering day other day and leave the pots dry on Sat-Sun. 1st topped was last week and seems they are doing good. Just the only 1 of Tropicana Cherry X Peach Ozz that seems weak, may replace with the other strain!

Week 8 Looking absolutely huge😂 They’re so tall and wide . Lots of healthy green leaves and strong roots. I was worrying a lot about sex issues as when I did my research I found out they’re quite common to hermaphrodite. Was really worrying but all calyx’s have female signs (so far🙏🏻) so pray for me brothers&sisters.

Hat geklappt mal sehen was herauskommt😅

*increased PPM to 750 lets see if it doesn’t give them more tip burn. *Humidity seems to spike all the way to 80% hopefully it causes no issues. *Couldnt see any male parts on the plants maybe it was just calys sites. *NO Smell yet

All doing well. Ultimate #1 is doing far better in growth under the Mars Hydro vs Ultimate #3 under just the Phlizon. This is what I expected I just didn’t really expect it would be such a large difference. The branches under the Mars Hydo are not only bigger and stronger but there are more of them!! Unless something massive changes the Phlizon will be just a seedling light from now on. Added a CO2 bag as well.

As you can see, the buds are getting to their maximum size and we still have at least two weeks more before the final flush. As you can see i increased the CO2 in the tent, in order to get advantage from the high temperatures inside the growth space (around 27/28ºC with no thermal amplitude between day and nights), Southern Portugal had been register around 36ºC day maximum and 28ºC nights minimum, so without AC it isn't posible to drop temperature, but despite of it, the buds are thriving from day to day and the scent and coloques are impressive (some redish Buds, no foxtails whatsoever, and the terpens are just Delicious. I will let you with a video explaining my growth area process. Jah God on command...Peace!

Pruned and started ferts this week. 0 sign of insects, we are good, for now....

4 days of flower. Everything looks great. The screen of Kush is 2cm lower, based on the slow grow. 80% light power

🍑 Passion Fruitz by Zamnesia — Week 8 | The Slowest Girl in the Room Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! If you've been following Passion Fruitz from the beginning, then by now you've probably realized something about this girl. She doesn't like rushing. While the other ladies in the room have already moved much further into flowering, Passion Fruitz continues to play the same card she's been playing for weeks: "I'm a very slow-growing plant." 😄 And honestly... I have to admit it. She's a slow plant. But she's a beautiful slow plant. 🌱 Still Playing the Slow Card All of these plants are the same age. They were all started under the same 12/12-from-seed concept. They're sharing the same room, the same environmental conditions, the same lighting strategy, and the same general feeding approach. Yet Passion Fruitz has decided that she's going to write her own timetable. Compared with the rest of the room, she is clearly delayed. Her transition into flowering has been considerably slower, and even now, the development of her flowers is progressing at a very measured pace. But what's fascinating is that she doesn't look like a plant that's struggling. Quite the opposite. She's green. She's vigorous. She's structurally strong. She's producing healthy new growth. She's simply taking her sweet time deciding exactly when she's ready to commit to flowering. And that makes her one of the most interesting phenotypes in this entire project. 🌿 Slow Doesn't Mean Weak Standing at approximately 72 cm, Passion Fruitz isn't the tallest plant in the room. But she's built herself into a remarkably dense and compact bush. Her stems have become thick and strong, her side branches are well developed, and the amount of healthy foliage she's carrying is impressive. Looking at her structure now, I keep thinking about what this plant might have looked like if she had been given several weeks of conventional vegetative growth before being placed under 12/12. She clearly has the ability to build. She simply chose to spend a very long time building herself before deciding to flower. And now we're finally beginning to see the consequences of that decision. ✂️ Time to Clean House This week I decided to give her a little bit of a challenge. Since Passion Fruitz isn't particularly large and flowering development is still moving slowly, I decided it was time to remove some of that excess vegetation underneath. I gave her a proper defoliation and lollipop, cleaning away lower foliage and branches that I don't want competing with the upper part of the plant. The objective wasn't to strip her down just for the sake of stripping her down. It was about directing the plant's resources toward the areas that matter most from here forward. With a relatively compact plant like this, I want her energy and structure concentrated toward the upper canopy rather than maintaining a large amount of lower growth that may have limited value later. And after the cleanup... Wow. She looks clean. 🌱 A New Shape Emerging The transformation is particularly obvious when looking underneath the canopy. The lower stem and branch structure is now much easier to see. The main stem is thick and healthy, with strong lateral branches coming away from it. Removing the lower vegetation has also opened the plant considerably, allowing much better visibility through the structure. From above, she's still incredibly leafy and full of life. But underneath, we've created a much cleaner framework. Now we wait. I'm very curious to see what she decides to do with that newly opened structure. Will she finally begin accelerating her flowering? Will the upper branches develop into stronger flower sites? Or will she simply look at me and say: "Nope. I'm still taking my time." 😂 Knowing Passion Fruitz... I wouldn't bet against option three. 💚 The Colour Says Everything One of the things I absolutely love about this phenotype is her colour. She remains incredibly lush and green. The new growth is vibrant, the mature leaves are healthy, and there is a beautiful contrast between the darker established foliage and the bright green emerging growth. The macro photographs really show this beautifully. The fresh growth almost looks luminous against the darker leaves surrounding it. For a plant that has spent so much time outside the flowering timeline of the rest of the room, she certainly hasn't been sitting around doing nothing. She's been building. And she's built herself a very impressive little machine. 💡 12/12 From Seed — The Experiment Continues This is exactly why I enjoy running the entire project under 12/12 from seed. If every phenotype behaved identically, there wouldn't be nearly as much to learn. Instead, we're seeing just how differently plants can interpret exactly the same environment. Some transition quickly. Some stretch aggressively. Some remain compact. And then there's Passion Fruitz... She looked at the 12/12 schedule and apparently decided: "I'll get there when I get there." 😂🍑 That genetic variation is one of the most valuable parts of this entire adventure. The goal isn't to force every plant into the same shape or timeline. It's to observe what each phenotype naturally wants to become. And Passion Fruitz is making that lesson impossible to miss. 💧 Feeding & Consistency This week I'm continuing with the Plagron flowering nutrition strategy. The current mix is: Terra Bloom — 2.2 ml/L Power Buds — 1 ml/L Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L Green Sensation — 1 ml/L Lemon Kick — 0.03 ml/L, used for pH adjustment when required The measured solution was around EC 2.0 mS/cm, with a pH of approximately 6.0. I'm keeping the strategy consistent rather than trying to force flowering by dramatically changing the nutrition. She's already shown us that her timeline is genetic. There's no point trying to bully her into flowering. We'll give her what she needs... And let Passion Fruitz decide when she's ready. 💡 Light & Environment The environment remains stable and consistent with the rest of the 8×8 Adventure. Current conditions: 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 21°C 🌬️ CO₂: 636 ppm 💧 Watering: 1.3 L per plant / 24h ? Pot size: 15 L 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 The consistency of the environment remains particularly important in this phenotype hunt. Because when everyone receives essentially the same conditions but one plant behaves completely differently... that's when genetics starts telling the story. 🌿 Under-Canopy Lighting The Lumiflora under-canopy lighting also remains part of this experiment. Passion Fruitz is particularly interesting here because she has maintained such a large amount of lower vegetation for so long. Now that we've cleaned the lower section, we'll have an even better opportunity to observe how the remaining branches respond to that additional light. I'm especially curious about the relationship between her upper canopy and the newly exposed lower structure. This is another one of those variables that may become much more interesting as flowering finally progresses. 📸 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs might be some of my favourites of Passion Fruitz so far. The full-plant images show just how dense this girl has become despite her relatively modest height. The overhead photographs reveal an incredibly broad canopy. The macro images show the beautiful contrast between mature leaves and the fresh, vibrant new growth. And then there are the stem photographs. Those are particularly satisfying. Once the lower foliage was removed, you can really appreciate the structure she has been quietly building underneath all that green. Thick main stem. Strong branches. Healthy nodes. A very solid framework. She's small... But she's definitely not fragile. 🔮 Looking Ahead And now comes the interesting part. We've cleaned her up. We've removed the lower growth that was no longer contributing to the structure we want. We've opened the plant. And we've left the upper canopy with the majority of the healthy growth. Now we wait to see what she does. I'm hoping that as flowering continues to develop, we'll start seeing more obvious flower formation throughout the upper canopy and a little more momentum from this famously slow phenotype. But I'm also realistic. I've learned by now that Passion Fruitz doesn't care what I expect. She has her own schedule. So I'm not going to rush her. I'm going to watch her. Document her. And let her show us what she can do. Because sometimes the phenotype that takes the longest to reveal herself ends up being the one you remember the most. 💚 Thank You Another week, another lesson from the 8×8 Adventure. Passion Fruitz continues to remind me that growing isn't about making every plant behave the same way. It's about understanding that every phenotype has its own personality. Some sprint. Some stretch. Some explode into flower. And some... take their sweet time. 🍑😄 A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries — for providing such an incredible platform where growers from around the world can document, learn, share, and inspire. 🌱 Zamnesia — for providing the genetics that made this phenotype hunt possible. 💜 Plagron — for supplying the nutrition supporting this journey. 💡 Future of Grow LED — for providing the lighting powering the project. 🌿 TrolMaster — for helping maintain a stable and controlled environment throughout the grow. ✨ Lumiflora — for providing the under-canopy lighting and giving us another variable to explore throughout this experiment. And, of course, thank you to everyone following along. Every comment, question, message, and bit of support makes this adventure even more enjoyable. Passion Fruitz may still be behind the rest of the room... But she's healthy. She's beautiful. She's building. And she's finally starting to show us where this story might be going. Slowly. Very, very slowly. 😂🍑 But that's okay. Because in the 8×8 Adventure, we're not here to rush the genetics. We're here to let them speak. See you next week for another chapter of Passion Fruitz. Growers Love, and happy growing everyone! 🌱🍑💚

really nice buds, she likes nutrients, and a really sweet aroma.

Sexy plant, can't wait for the seeds that come from this 🤙🏽 Check out my YouTube for long form content that I can't post here https://youtube.com/@aestheticgenetix?si=pSk5e-kvp-nVYccc

05/17 - Both are vegging accordingly - applied a hard LST to even out the canopy and distribute light coverage around the plants - Both are currently in 1 gallon pots - Both will be transplanted into 5 gallon pots by the end of the week - I will begin micro-dosing their nute feeds to negate transplant shock.

The smell is insane and my carbon filter can’t handle it and wife is not happy. I am secretly happy. Plants are doing well. Water every 4 days or so. Just giving my last feeding at week 6… a little late. But just 1-2 tbsp of 284 power bloom from Gaia green and 1tsp of high P bat guano. Watering in kelp, cal mg, Herculean harvest… Going to be a decent harvest. 9 weeks or so from flip is what I expect. They are starting to flop over so I am lowering the trellis to catch some lower branches.

Woche 8 Blütewoche 1 🙈: Der Wechsel in die Blüte Das große Ereignis steht bevor! Der Lichtzyklus ist auf 12/12 umgestellt. Die Pflanze genießt eine sanfte 15-minütige Dimmphase. Um den Übergang stressfrei zu gestalten, haben wir das DLI auf 30 reduziert. Der Düngeplan wechselt auf 5 ml/l Hesi Bloom, 2 ml/l Hesi Boost (einmal wöchentlich), 1 ml/l Plagron Greensensation (einmal wöchentlich) und 2 ml/l Calmag. * Zustand der Pflanze: Start des Blütestrecks. * Wichtige Ereignisse: Wechsel des Lichtzyklus. Reduzierung des DLI. * Düngung & Messwerte: * Gießwasser: pH ca. 6,3. Leitwert 1,4 bis 2 S. * Drain: Wir stellen sicher, dass der pH-Wert nicht unter 5,5 und nicht über 6,8 liegt. * Anpassungen:

Ok, lets think about this logically - why are the leaves turning brown? it looks like a Calcium/Phosphorus issue, A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THIS , is it a deficiency??? Unlikely in Hydro as the solution is more effective as there are no contaminants, so this leads me to believe its a lockout, what can cause this ? 2 things = A) Too Much Nutrient Potassium or B) ph is too low - SO to rectify this, i have added more water to the reservoir and raised the ph to 6.3 As i am using more water in the reservoir its entirely possible that when the water goes down,even though the EC stays the same the proportional concentrations of each nutrient can change - for example EC pen says 2.0 when i first fill with 20 litres, the plant drinks 4 litres of water and consumes lots of bloom A+B so when i put my pen in two days later the 16 litres of solution still reads 2.0 but there is a higher proportion of PK. Of course it could always be option C) these plants eat phosphorus for breakfast and need more ..😜 I have checked roots they all ok Wednesday- changed solution , made it slightly weaker EC 1.7 ph 6.2-3 Thursday I had a little chat on Instagram with mammoth , i think they might need less than usual Saturday - noticed some yellowing on the little plant , it’s a confusing as th3 other plants are all using the same nutrients and they are loving life , it might be the buckets , I am much preferring the size of the 35 litre ones , and the root structure is perfect , because the 45 litre boxes are more rectangular than square the roots are sort of sideways . Still waiting for some purple on the tall one 🤔 ITS VERY IMPORTANT IN DWC - Do not automatically think you need to add nutrients , in DWC it’s so much more efficient that less is more , 99% of the time it’s overdone it , normally the tips go brown first , but it’s some circumstance s The concentration can increase without you knowing , FIRST change solution with a little bit less , I usually go to 1.6-1.7 EC TOTAL and 6.3 ph that is a universal solution that provides enough without overdoing it . Updated DAILY

So I'm on day 14 of flower now and there doing brilliant. They will probably finish there stretch after this week. Another fan coming tomorrow. Day 16 of flower, added new fan for under the netting 👌 plants are rocking now lol still stretching had to raise the light 🤣 temts and humidity are on point, absolutely stinks in the room, and I'm loving it 😀. Day 18 of flip and there getting fatter, starting to produce trichomes now they smell really skunky, I really need to do a defoloation for those lower buds but ill do it day 21 and then its done. Temp and humidity have been good so far highest humidity when lights off was 67% with my fan ac controller set on fan speed 7 and I just watered them that night. Day 20. So today I just performed a major defoliation on the ladys as there was alot of leafs blocking bud sites. I been struggling with humidity these lst few days 😫 so tomorrow I got a big dehumidifier coming tomorrow to hopefully help But other than that everything is going good and entering the week 6 of the biobizz feed charge.

Nov 24 2022 Started LST last night, a tad late but no big issue I hope. Moved grow cycle time back and hour and a half. Light were shutting off at 12:00AM, I couldn't do consistent foliar spray at night (was in bed) Shifted to 10:30PM OFF, 4:30AM ON It was 12:00AM OFF and 6:00AM ON Plants are a vibrant green, thick strong main stem 5L Grow bags have arrived in the mail finally Nov 26, 2022 Watered and fed Tommy and Danny 1tbsp per 1L of water Both plants were bone dry 2 inches down
