107 days!! Here is another great experience :) The girl has matured, 330 grams of wet, full of sticky, resinous shiny, pleasantly smelling flowers :) I think it will be about 90 dry :) although the girl is definitely not the biggest, but she looks great, the smell is also amazing :) I also got some sugar leaves from which I will make bubble hash, For me personally it is really beautiful and good growth, which I think will definitely be confirmed by the dried and cured flowers :) there will be a smoke review, as well as the total dry weight. good luck to everyone :).

Update June 28th Grow growing steady. Temperatures and humidity are absolutely terrible. Iโ€™m not sure if the grow will be successful this way but Iโ€™ll just hope for the best. Apart from that things are going great. Trichomes and pistils appeared right on time. I think Iโ€™m done lollipopping as well. Thereโ€™s no hidden mini branches left.

8/1 Took another video but didn't upload either videos when I was in town. I'll have to upload later. I have a lot going on and I need to consult my diary more often. The Temps dramatically changed. I watered yesterday just a few that were light but then it poured all night. This morning things looked SUBSTANTIALLY better. I think as long as I can get some sunlight the next few days things will be alright. That streak of weather in the 100s really did a number on me and my plants. Everytime I go they seem to be looking better so I hope that they bounce back and I don't lose anything after all this work. Plants seem "strong" though. They appear very healthy. This just seems like a mistake I made that was substantially worsened by severe thunder storms we weren't supposed to get. If they don't come back before rain I may move the plants that haven't recovered yet inside the barn for the night. It really depends. I want them to dry out. I'm thinking of going and putting a fan in the cage on the smart pots. I just need to keep an eye on them. UPDATE: I was worriedly watching my plants from the cams and got a message from my father saying my plants were "REALLY DROOPY." I got there and noticed they were WAY worse then earlier and it was sunny and 70's. I got my dude on the phone and sent him several pictures. Luckily I had a second opinion also from my father. A 3cu ft bag of 707 is 22 gallons. These pots were light like that. They just have a seven foot plant in them lol. I'm so happy. I was planning on bringing them Inside tonight in case of ANY rain, luckily I was able to ascertain THE REAL problem, consult my diary and askother growers. Things are looking good. I'm so happy I'm not overwatered. 8/2 Thank the Lord! And my father for his constant vigilance and my commercial buddy for always being there for me. I went over this morning and everything is back up. Plants definitely got stressed though. I think I was OVER and UNDER watering during those days where it was 100 degrees. It'd 68 today. I say this because as soon as I watered the plants they started picking right back up. Luckily I had a dry bag of 707 to pick up and compare with my 20 gallon grow bags and had my father check the weight as well. He's a forester and told me the weight was about tge same. I gave the big blue cheese in the back closer to 2 gallons until I saw some water coming out the bottom. The reason I think I may have overwatered is that the water evaporated as i had watered during the day or at night but not the 10% that they needed. I didn't QUITEgive them all their 10% last time more like I split the difference and did a gallon amd half. Some did get two though. I noticed some light yellowing going up one of the plants that I've watered the most. These plants are transitioning fast to flower. I think I've got the watering schedule down better and that's "don't water them on a schedule". I'll have to individually take note of the plants. Also on that plant and a few others I see minor nute deficiencies so as soon as I can feed I'm going too. I'm going to show my buddy all my info and ask his advice before i take the next step though. I can't believe they made it through this. Talk about anxiety. Wow. UPDATE: Talked to my commercial buddy. He advised to pick off any of the dead leaves, (which I mostly already have there weren't many) and to wait until next water to feed. He broke it all down in a way i could understand. Then he broke the feeding down further for me so I now know where to start. He did say he thinks my only problem this year will be, "finding a place to store it" lol. I thought he was joking but he went out back and brought out five gallon buckets with screw top lids lol. This back and forth dialogue (with a professional) is seriously lowering my anxiety and giving me confidence that im doing the right thing. Hes never led my wrong and hes always been there. So has my dad. He said to take the old man out for coffee because he saved my ass! I opted for the bottle of whiskey instead. I'll be checking them later. I'm waiting to feed until next watering and I'm waiting to apply BT. I don't want to do anything to a plant that has been that stressed. I'm giving them a few days to chill. Then the twenties will get a quart of grow big, big bloom and calmag and I'll convert that measure to the same amount for the 30's, and 50's. I'm not sure EXACTLY how big that tote is but I think it's closet to 30 than to 40. So I've got a solid plan for the week. I think what I'll be looking to do next is get my supports up. The wind has been crazy but these plants (even when stressed) seemed super strong! Still no fungal stuff knock on wood. UPDATE: Had to take the car to the mechanic and snag my wheeler to make it home. I sefoliated quite a few bog yellow fan leaves and some smaller leaves down low. Plants went through some stress thats for sure. I HAD to leave my phone with the wife as she had a telehealth appointment so I couldn't take pictures. I wish I could've because things are looking great. I can't wait until things dry out a bit and I can feed! I'm STILL in awe of how my plants look RIGHT NOW and how the looked yesterday. Another buddy said If I didn't see it (and I didnt know you) I wouldn't have believed it was even the same garden! I'll check AGAIN later if my car is ready. I'm anxious to feed and get my supports up. Plants are STRONG though. 8/3 Plants looked great this morning. I did notice what looked like nute deficiencies on the plants I've watered most. After speaking with a few local growers I decided to water. I watered everything a gallon. The containers got more. The 10 got less. Then i mixed up a feeding solution of 1 tsp grow big 2 big bloom and .5 calmag and fed the 20s approx 1.5 pints. A little less for the 10 and a little more for the bigger pots. I'm going to go back over and if I see no negative effects from earlier I'll use the rest of the solution. I'm hoping this was the right decision. It hasn't been enough time but the bags were light. Not SUPER light but last time I waited it didn't work out well for me. Two local growers have told me theyve been watering daily and they have plants in raised beds and right in the ground. I want my watering to be in the morning anyway. Hopefully this works out. I'll update. UPDATE: Went back over and everything was standing up nice. They loved that water and the small dose of nures hasn't burned them so ill be able to use more next time. I used a Gatorade bottle thats 1.25 pints amd went from there. A total of two gallons was used on the garden. Things look amazing. Things are changing on the daily. I'm losing some leaves now. Well they aren't dropping off but I'm plucking them before they yet that far. I need to water in larger volumes I think. Plants are drying out too quick. Others are saying they are watering much more often as well. It really hasn't been raining and these plants are huge. I have lush green leaves but this transition and the added watering I think has leeched a lot of the nutrients from the soil. Since I have the fox farm that's what I'll be using. I still have a couple leaves that are destroyed by a fourkined plant bug. It's very identifiable so theres another I need to find. Also seeing chunks missing from leaves. I need to up my ipm game. I don't want to do more than one thing at a time though so I know what happened if anything goes wrong. Since i did the nutes today the spraying of BT or captain Jack's I'd going to have to wait. Despite losing these old fan leaves my plants are dense. Defoliating really helped with airflow. I also noticed some chlorosis on a few leaves. That's why I'm going to start doing the 10% minimum. I'm waiting until they are real dry then I'll give everyone (but big blue) their 10%. I got run off from big blue just from like a gallon amd a half today. I hope my 2 minute video uploaded. It says it dis but u bet it didn't. I'm trying again and I'm at 12%. Let's see if my patience lasts. Looks like it doesn't want to upload 8/4 Thunderstorms and heavy rain all night. It's supposed to rain steadily all day. Plants werent drooped or blown around looking or anything after this storm and I only have minimal supports up. I defoliated anything that needed it. Just a few yellow leaves on the bottom interior. More like nitrogen deficiency. I am watering to frequently though. Im noticing some chlorosis (minor) on old far leaves. Could just be that the soil is getting depleted but "if the brown surrounds your plant is drowned" and I noticed a few leaves like that. Just a couple bit i know what to look for. I hate to say it but i think ive almost got things dialed in for this grow. I will need to put up further supports. These are some STRONG plants. I shook them all off today. The seemed to love the nutes. Plants looked way better this morning than I was expecting. I need to up my watering volume to 10% everytime. I DID fine more pillar damage when defoliating and a four lined plant bug mark on the purple punch in the ten. 8/5 It's not raining right now but it Rained all day and night. Plants really seemed to likecthise nutes. I'll up it to a quart next feed. I defoliated what needed it. Found my FIRST totally yellow leaf of the season. Big old interior leaf i must've missed earlier. Smell has greatly increased. Seeing that these plants seem to have no ill effect from all this water I feel more confident about my ability to fully water them their 10%. Especially since they are massive plants. I have one daln near 8ft and it's damn near as wide. Real good airflow. I think this is gonna be my year. I certainly hope so. I need to get rid of that fourlined plant big but more importantly I need to deal with pillars proactively so next nice night I'm going to treat with bt. Super proud of myself so far. 8/6 Didn't rain much yesterday. In fact I stepped out my door and the sun was fully visible and bright while rain poured down around me. It wad a cool experience but the plants dodnt get much for water. I checked the weight this morning (heavy) and shook off the plants and did my normal morning inspection. I news to remove a pallet so I have more room. Plants are really trying to flower. Next week I'm gonna yet them with a stronger dose of nutes. Last year this was about the time I lost my crop. Knock on wood but this is the healthiest crop I've ever had. I MAY apply BT tonight. Haven't decided yet. I'll keep the diary updated. UPDATE: Went over to check the plants that were WET and HEAVY this MORNING because of the windstorm. If dried the bags out completely. Everything but the 10 was drooping right over like before. Good thing I've got some pretty good intuition. I took two videos. I gave everything their 10% 2 gallons each and for each container plant. Plants were back up by the time I was done adding supports. 8/7 Sunny this morning. Plants looked good. Had to defoliate some dead leaves. I can't believe those grow bags dried out so fast yesterday! Its just the wind was so strong! Plants were right sideways! They got some syrong roots thats for sure. One of them (my canary) seemed light this morning! But we are getting an inch and a half of rain starting tonight into tomorrow so im not watering ANYTHING. I'm not sure what I'm going to do IF anything. I added to my supports. I COULD put EVERYTHING in the barn where we put heavy equipment. I'll probably at least bring a couple inside in case something horrible happens. Things arecreally doing good. Flowering up nice. Found a cicada on one yesterday. First time I've ever seen one. I'll update with what I decide to do. UPDATE. My canary seems a little light and is losing lots more leaves im not sure if it's because of the transition to flower but I assume that has something to do with it. Plants still have MORE than enough leaves. Found a couple pillars and killed them. Took a video. I have one blueberry cheese that I hope doesn't have a fungal infection as it's losing more leaves. But it takes more water and is greener and fuller up top. I think I'm just worried because of last year. I've done what I can gor the storm so let's see what happens if I NOTICE it get too bad I can bring some indoors.

Really impressed with this SCHLUX SZ-PT400 light. Done another round of LST really bringing th bud sites to the light. Also been tucking my bug fan leaves, don't believe in trimming autos. Captain Redbeard Seeds are really impressive at this point. Will be top dressing with Coast of Maine lobster compost, as well as worm castings and the OG bloom dust. Happy growing

The leaves are starting to fade and the shortest of the three has had her pistils start to turn and is getting dense while putting on weight. They have that โ€œnorthern lightsโ€ aroma that is a personal favorite of mine. Itโ€™s time for the fox farms beastie bloomz for a week or two.

Moving the light schedule to 12.5hrs on on the way to 13hrs on by week 5. I'm super happy with the growth, though the flowers are about half the size as it's pot-mate's.

Germination week has begun for my Autumn 2021 grow! These are seeds of Mephisto Genetics Deep Blue C x Sour Bubbly that I was given by the widow of my recently passed fellow grower buddy, Adam. I'm honoured to keep this hobby of ours alive and what better way than to use seeds Adam was growing himself. I've been using this germination technique lately of just placing the bean in the little containers seeds come in sometimes (as pictured) filled with some water. I've had 100% success so far usually after 2 days or so. Hope I didn't just jinx it! Update: I was away and didn't take the seeds out in time, left them in water for nearly 48 hrs. My fault. Out of 5 seeds, 3 visibly damped off. Planted the 2 seeds with healthy taproots into soil to grow some before transplant.

๐Ÿ’œ Purple CousKush Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 12 โœจ The Glamorous Girl Keeps Evolving โ€” And I Still Have No Idea Where She's Going Welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And Purple CousKush Pheno A... Well... She's still doing her thing. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ She's still beautiful. She's still growing. She's still developing. She's still claiming her space. And honestly? I still have absolutely no idea where this girl is going. ๐Ÿ˜‚ And I love that. Because at this stage, I don't want to force an answer onto her. I don't want to decide what she should be doing. I don't want to create some imaginary finish line and try to push her toward it. I'm simply watching. And this girl is evolving fast. Very fast. She's changing. She's developing. She's becoming more and more interesting every time I look at her. And somehow... she still manages to look absolutely gorgeous while doing it. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธโ„๏ธ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’œ SHE'S STILL CLAIMING HER SPACE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ One thing that really stands out to me this week is that she continues to claim her space. She's not the biggest plant in the room. She's not trying to become one. But she has established herself. She has her own structure. Her own presence. Her own personality. And when you look at her now, you don't see a plant that is simply occupying a corner. You see Purple CousKush. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ She's there. She's established. She's flowering. She's evolving. And she's becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. That's something I really enjoy about her. She doesn't need to dominate the entire room to have presence. She simply needs to be herself. And she's doing that beautifully. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โœจ STILL BEAUTIFUL. STILL A MYSTERY. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This girl is keeping me guessing. ๐Ÿ˜‚ I genuinely don't know where she's going. And normally, by this stage, you start getting a pretty good idea of how a plant is going to finish. But Purple CousKush Pheno A? She's still giving me: "Wait and see." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ And I'm perfectly happy with that. The flowers are developing. The structure is evolving. The plant is changing. She's continuing to move forward. And every time I think: "Okay, now I understand where this is going..." she gives me another little surprise. That's what makes phenotype hunting so much fun. You can have an expectation. You can have a breeder description. You can have an idea in your head. But eventually... the plant gets the final word. And this girl clearly isn't finished talking. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ EVOLVING FAST โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This is probably the biggest thing I notice this week. She's moving. And she's moving quickly. The plant is continuing to develop at a pace that makes me want to keep checking her every time I walk into the room. The flowers are progressing. The overall structure is becoming more defined. And the whole plant is starting to feel increasingly mature. We're not watching a static plant anymore. We're watching a plant actively changing. And that's exciting. Because this is the part of the journey where small differences from week to week can become really interesting. A flower looks a little different. A branch fills out. The overall silhouette changes. The plant starts carrying itself differently. And suddenly you realize: "Yep... she's moving." ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ„๏ธ AND THE FROST IS STILL RIDICULOUS โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Of course... we cannot talk about Purple CousKush without talking about the frost. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ She's still an absolute little resin factory. The flowers continue carrying that beautiful frosty appearance. And every time the camera gets closer... there's more to discover. From a distance, you see beautiful flowers. Closer? You start seeing the details. Trichomes. Resin. Pistils. Calyxes. Sugar leaves. Textures. And that sparkle that makes you stop for another photograph. ๐Ÿ“ธโ„๏ธ This is one of those plants where the camera almost becomes part of the growing process. Not because it changes anything... but because it forces you to slow down and actually look. And when you look closely at this girl? She's gorgeous. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ SHE'S NOT DONE TAKING SPACE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ There's also something I really enjoy about the way she's occupying her space now. She's established. She's filling what she wants to fill. She's developing within her own architecture. And she's not asking permission. ๐Ÿ˜‚ She's basically saying: "This is my space. I'm keeping it." ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ And honestly? Good. Because that's what we want to see. Not every plant needs to fill the same amount of space. Not every phenotype needs the same architecture. The interesting part is seeing what each one decides to do with the opportunity. Purple CousKush Pheno A has decided that her space belongs to her. And she's using it beautifully. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ˜‚ THE "BORING" PART OF GROWING โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ And now we arrive at one of my favourite contradictions in growing. We're at the stage where... there isn't actually much to do. ๐Ÿ˜‚ And that's a good thing. The big work has already happened. The plants have established themselves. The structures are there. The flowers are there. The room is stable. The lighting is doing its job. The nutrition is being managed. The irrigation is being maintained. And now? We watch. That's it. Sometimes growing is incredibly exciting. You're training. You're shaping. You're making decisions. You're constantly moving things around. And then you reach this stage and realize: "Actually... the best thing I can do is leave the damn plant alone." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ So that's what we're doing. We're observing. We're documenting. We're enjoying. And we're letting Purple CousKush do the growing. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โœ‚๏ธ THE WORK IS MOSTLY DONE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This is another important part of the current stage. I'm not trying to invent work. I'm not looking at her thinking: "What can I cut?" "What can I move?" "What can I change?" No. ๐Ÿ˜‚ She's doing fine. She's developing. She's evolving. She's beautiful. So I'm letting her continue. The major structural work belongs to the earlier chapters. Now we're entering the part where the plant gets to show us the result of all that earlier work. And eventually... yes... the harvest work will arrive. That's when we'll have plenty to do again. ๐Ÿ˜‚โœ‚๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ But we're not there yet. For now... we watch the show. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ก SAME ROOM. SAME SUN. DIFFERENT STORY. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The lighting environment remains the same upgraded ecosystem we've been using throughout the room. The Future of Grow Black Series LEDs continue providing the main lighting. The two additional Black Series 600W fixtures remain part of the setup. After introducing the extra fixtures, we reduced the output to approximately 59% from the plug rather than simply running everything at maximum. That gives us approximately: โ˜€๏ธ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with intensity naturally changing according to plant height and position. And Purple CousKush? She's receiving the same photons as everyone else. Same room. Same artificial sun. Same general environment. Different genetic response. And that's exactly what makes this experiment so fascinating. The photons are available. The plant decides what to do with them. And this girl? She's clearly putting them to work. ๐Ÿ’œโ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โš—๏ธ THE ROOM IS MOVING TOGETHER โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The nutritional program has also started moving into the next phase with the rest of the room. We're beginning to decrease the nutritional input as part of the normal progression toward the later stages. Nothing dramatic. Nothing specifically designed to force Purple CousKush into a particular timeline. Just the natural evolution of the room. At this stage, we're not trying to push the plants harder simply because we can. We're watching them. We're observing how they respond. And we're allowing the room to progress. Purple CousKush is evolving quickly... so we're listening to her. That's really the whole philosophy now. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฑ SAME ROOM.

One general ecosystem. And twelve different clocks. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Some plants seem ready earlier. Some keep going. Some move quickly. Some take their time. Some suddenly accelerate. And Purple CousKush? She's definitely moving. But I still don't know exactly where her clock is going to stop. And I'm not going to pretend that I do. That's part of the fun. We're watching the plant instead of trying to make the plant fit our expectations. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ SHE'S STILL A BEAUTIFUL SUBJECT โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The camera is definitely enjoying this girl. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ The full-plant shots show how she's claiming her space. The closer shots show the flowers. And once we move in... the frost starts doing the talking. โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ There's so much detail packed into these flowers. The little structures. The resin. The pistils. The changing appearance. And every photograph becomes another little timestamp in her story. That's really what these diaries are about. Not just the final result. The journey. The evolution. The changes that happen between one week and the next. And Purple CousKush is giving us plenty of those changes. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’œ I STILL LOVE THIS GIRL โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ I think this deserves to be said. I still love this girl. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ There's something about her. Maybe it's the frost. Maybe it's the structure. Maybe it's the fact that she keeps surprising me. Maybe it's simply her personality. Whatever it is... she's one of those plants I genuinely enjoy checking. I walk into the room. I look around. And eventually my eyes find her. "Okay... what are you doing today?" ๐Ÿ˜‚ And usually the answer is: "Something." She's evolving. She's moving. She's changing. She's doing her thing. And I'm here for it. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ” WHAT AM I WATCHING NOW? โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Honestly? Everything. ๐Ÿ˜‚ I'm watching the flowers. I'm watching the overall structure. I'm watching the frost. I'm watching the plant's pace. I'm watching the way she's changing. I'm watching for the signals that will eventually tell us when her journey is reaching the end. But I'm not trying to force the answer. That's important. I'm curious. Very curious. But I'm patient. Because this girl has already shown me that she doesn't necessarily follow the script. So why would I start writing the ending for her? Let her write it. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ˜‚ SHE'S BASICALLY SAYING "WAIT" โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ If Purple CousKush could talk right now, I honestly think she'd look at me and say: "Why are you asking so many questions?" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ "I'll tell you when I'm ready." And you know what? Fair enough. I'll wait. Because the plant knows her own story better than I do. My job is to provide the environment. Observe. Document. Adjust when necessary. And then... get out of the way. That's where we are now. And this girl seems perfectly happy with the arrangement. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ CLAIMING HER SPOTLIGHT โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ There are some plants that demand the spotlight. Purple CousKush doesn't exactly demand it. She just... earns it. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ She has developed into a beautiful plant with a personality all her own. She's still evolving. Still changing. Still moving quickly. Still covered in frost. Still claiming her space. And still keeping me curious. So this week... the spotlight belongs to her. Not because she's the biggest. Not because she's the fastest. Not because she's the most dramatic. Simply because she's Purple CousKush Pheno A. And that's enough. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฎ LOOKING AHEAD โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ And now? We wait. ๐Ÿ˜‚ The next chapter could show us more maturation. More development. More changes in the flowers. More colour. More frost. Maybe she'll start showing us exactly where she's heading. Maybe she'll surprise me again. Honestly... I wouldn't be surprised either way. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ I'm simply going to keep watching. Keep photographing. Keep documenting. And let this girl decide when she's ready to turn the page. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โœจ FINAL THOUGHTS โ€” LET HER SHINE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Week 12. Purple CousKush Auto. Pheno A. Still beautiful. Still evolving. Still claiming her space. Still covered in frost. And still keeping me guessing. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œโ„๏ธ There isn't some massive dramatic event to report this week. And honestly? That's perfectly fine. The plant is doing exactly what she needs to do. She's growing. She's developing. She's moving quickly. She's becoming more mature. And she's continuing to show us who she is. Our job is becoming simpler. Observe. Maintain. Document. Wait. And eventually... harvest. But we're not rushing there. Not yet. For now... we're enjoying the show. And Purple CousKush is putting on a beautiful one. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธโ„๏ธโœจ So let's give this glamorous girl the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's see where she decides to take us. Because I genuinely have no idea. And honestly? I wouldn't have it any other way. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ™ THANK YOU โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Another week. Another chapter. And another beautiful reminder of why the 8ร—8 Adventure has become such a fascinating experiment. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share them with the community. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Purple CousKush genetics behind this beautiful girl. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธ Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of the adventure. ๐ŸŒฑ Thank you to Future of Grow for the Black Series lighting and for supplying the additional fixtures that have expanded the lighting capability of this room. ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ™ Thank you to LumiFlora for helping illuminate the deeper parts of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable behind the scenes. And, of course... thank you to everyone following the 8ร—8 Adventure. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every photograph. Every person who takes the time to stop and see what these girls are doing. It genuinely means a lot. And Purple CousKush Pheno A? She's still here. Still beautiful. Still evolving. Still claiming her space. Still keeping me guessing. And still absolutely deserving of her spotlight. ๐Ÿ’œโ„๏ธ๐ŸŒธโœจ So let's keep watching. Let's keep documenting. Let's let the plants tell us when they're ready. And let's enjoy this final part of the journey for what it is. The big work is mostly behind us. The harvest work will come later. For now... we watch the show roll out. And Purple CousKush? She's got the stage. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’œโœจ
