Day 35 โ€“ The Buddha Haze II has really taken off and is trying to catch the others after a slow start. She has some nice flowers starting to develop and looks extremely healthy. She continues to stretch as she has gained 5โ€ in height this week. Continuing to feed the Nectar for the Gods nutrients and have added Tritonโ€™s Trawl (liquid fishbone meal that is rich in calcium from fish cartilage and is designed to deliver flavor, aroma and color to the finished product) and Aphroditeโ€™s Extraction (a rich blend of sucrose, fructose, chelated nutrients, and organic acids necessary for enzymatic activity, and a complete balance of vitamins A, C, D, E, B1, B6 and B12, which are essential to a plantsโ€™ biological growth processes). These two additions are known to increases oil, resin, frost, and terpene production in flower. Continuing to add Recharge as a soil amendment to establish colonies of beneficial fungal and bacterial microbes. Temperatures are consistently between 74ยฐ - 78ยฐ and humidity between 30% - 45%. Soil pH is 6.5 and PPMs at 321 which is perfect for the Nectar for the Gods nutrient line. Added a homemade Co2 generator to boost carbon dioxide levels and to improve overall plant growth and health. โ€“ Zannabis7 Day 36 - Fed the Nectar of the Gods nutrients as indicated above and in photo. Added Recharge to the nutrient mix for microbes and to aid in the breakdown and uptake of nutrients. - Zannabis7 Day 39 - Fed the Nectar of the Gods nutrients as indicated above and in photo. Again added Recharge to the nutrient mix for microbes and to aid in the breakdown and uptake of nutrients. Also did some very light defoliation and more leaf tucking to expose flower sites - Zannabis7

BlueBerry by Zamnesia Seeds
๐ŸŒธ BlueBerry โ€“ Week 4 Flower Report Growerโ€™s Journal โ€“ Zamnesia BlueBerry | Entry 009 โธป ๐ŸŒฑ The Girls at Week 4 Both BlueBerry #1 and #2 are officially in their bloom stride. โ€ข Structure: Stocky, balanced, strong branching. โ€ข Stacking: Bud sites are forming beautifully and starting to swell. โ€ข Frosting: Trichome production has begun โ€” the first glitters catching the light. They almost look like mirror images, which is a testament to the stability of these genetics. Every node is stacking just right, making this run a true delight to watch evolve. โธป ๐Ÿ’ก Under-Canopy Lights โ€“ The Hidden Secret This week the under-canopy lights are proving their worth. Not only are the tops shining, but even the lowers are receiving enough energy to thrive. This setup is creating: โ€ข Even growth across the whole plant. โ€ข Healthier lower buds, not just popcorn. โ€ข A canopy that feels alive from top to bottom. Itโ€™s a real ecosystem of light, every layer glowing and working together. โธป Environment โ€“ Hot, Hot, Hot Now, letโ€™s talk about the truth of summer growing: the heat. Temperatures are climbing so much that even taking pictures becomes a challenge. Letโ€™s say this: by the time Iโ€™ve finished shooting the girls, Iโ€™m almost in โ€œsummer beachwearโ€ mode ๐ŸŒž๐Ÿ‘•๐Ÿ˜‚. The garden is so warm and alive that it feels like stepping into a tropical bloom paradise, except instead of palm trees, Iโ€™m surrounded by BlueBerry flowers. Humidity stays in balance, sensors are working, and despite the warmth, the girls are thriving. โธป ๐ŸŒฟ Atmosphere & Gear As always, the ecosystem setup is running smooth: โ€ข TrolMaster brain + sensors keeping us updated. โ€ข Spider Farmer + Aero Fans ensuring airflow in & out. โ€ข Filters keeping everything fresh. โ€ข LEDs (Future of Grow + ThinkGrow + Lumatek Zeus) pushing flower formation with perfect spectrum balance. Every piece is connected, every reading aligned โ€” itโ€™s not just a grow tent, itโ€™s a living orchestra of technology and nature working together. โธป โœจ The Fun Side โ€“ Amnesia Moment A little shoutout: taking care of the BlueBerry girls sometimes makes me forget the world outside (Amnesia closes, letโ€™s call it that ๐Ÿ˜‰). Between the heat, the scent of early terpenes, and the hypnotic way flowers are forming, time disappears in the room. Thatโ€™s the beauty of it โ€” itโ€™s not just gardening, itโ€™s a whole-body, whole-heart experience. โธป ๐Ÿ”ฎ Looking Ahead โ€“ Into Week 5 Next week, I expect: โ€ข Flowers to bulk up heavily. โ€ข Terpenes to become more noticeable, filling the room with the classic BlueBerry perfume. โ€ข Trichomes to coat the buds more visibly. โ€ข Room adjustments as needed once the AC comes into play, stabilizing the heat. โธป ๐Ÿ’ฌ Final Thoughts Week 4 flower is the turning point โ€” where the story moves from stretch to stack, from structure to sparkle. Both BlueBerries are stunning, almost identical, and thriving under both canopy and under-canopy light. Yes, the heat makes it a sweaty job (half-naked photoshoot vibes ๐Ÿ˜…), but the result is worth it: strong, healthy, beautifully evolving BlueBerry ladies. From genetics to gear, from environment to experience โ€” everything is tuned for success. And now, itโ€™s just about letting them shine. ๐ŸŒธโœจ DD (DogDoctor)๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š ๐Ÿ“ฒ Donโ€™t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Autopot+Biotabs vs. Photoperiods #2026/1
2026-03-30 The Cement crunch is sowing more and more colr, really darkpurple , like afresh haematom and iam sure she gives back a good Punch stiky and glitery last week she got some Pk Boost ( Bio PK 5/8) and again you can see it iam estaminating 10-14 more days for her i added another humifidier into the room and the exhaust ventilation is on 100 percent- there is so much biomass in the room -------------------------------------------------------------------- Growing Medium & Feeding: Using recycled Terra Preta mix with the Biotabs "just add water" strategy, which builds a living soil rich with beneficial microorganisms that break down organic matter into plant-available nutrients. This approach keeps things simple, organic, and self-sustaining. Watering System: Just set up the autopot system for her and one neighboring plant. The autopot delivers steady, gentle hydration that keeps the soil life thriving without disrupting the delicate microbial ecosystemโ€”a perfect match for the Biotabs method. Since I can only run autopots for 2 plants (not all 6 in the room), these two larger girls get the automated treatment while the younger onesโ€”about 10 days behindโ€”are still on hand watering. Breeder info// this grow is CEMENT CRUNCH Cement Crunch is an unknown from Cult Classics Seeds and can be cultivated indoors and outdoors (Where the plants will need a flowering time of ยฑ56 days) Cult Classics Seeds's Cement Crunch is only available as feminized seeds.

First Grow
Decided to turn on my bloom lights on my Optic 2 Gen 3 LED which incrediblely increased the temp so lucky ๐Ÿ€ I have a carbon filter from ac infinity โ€œ4 and a inline fan from Vivosun which really work great to suck the stagnant hot air out of my 32โ€x32โ€x72โ€ tent. Other then that have been feeding these girl Urb& liquid seaweed and they seem to be loving it. Would love to make a compost tea soon.
The Mystery Seed Awakens ๐ŸŒฑ
Topped & Sun-Kissed โ˜€๏ธโœ‚๏ธ This week, I finally made the callโ€”sheโ€™s been topped! ๐ŸŒฟ After a bit of back and forth, I decided it was time to give her structure a little boost and open things up to more sunlight. The side shoots are now reaching out confidently, soaking up every bit of that warm summer glow. โ˜€๏ธ Sheโ€™s had a golden week of sunshine and handled it like a champโ€”strong, vibrant growth and no signs of stress post-topping. ๐Ÿ’ช Hereโ€™s what went into her care routine this week: ๐Ÿ”ธ Fed with BioBizz Grow, CalMag and Alg-a-Mic ๐Ÿ”ธ Followed by some homebrewed compost tea two days later for that microbial boost ๐Ÿ”ธ Two days after that, a fresh round of Effective Microorganisms to enrich the soil life ๐Ÿ”ธ And every 3 days, a light misting of silica spray to keep her leaves strong and resilient Iโ€™m super happy with how sheโ€™s shaping up so farโ€”great energy, lush color, and the new growth is coming in fast. Curious to see how she responds to the topping in the next week!

Harvest day 68 since time switch to 12 / 12 h Hey guys :-) Finally it's time ๐Ÿ’š The lady is done the large leaves have been removed and hung upside down to dry in the dark drying room. You can now stay there for 13-15 days at a temperature of 18-20 degrees and 55-62% humidity. After 13-15 days it is neatly trimmed by hand and placed in jars with boveda packs 62. After 4 weeks Boveda 58% come in and are ready for testing ;-). After everything has been cut cleanly, the last update comes with the smoke report and the finished pictures. Let's get to the plant ๐Ÿ’š. First of all I would like to compliment Green House for this genetics. Unfortunately, the rating system at Growdiaries is a bit strange because I have to give the stars before the Smoke Report and in the end it might have led to more stars in terms of taste. The growth was great from start to finish. She had no problems at all and also had no problems with animals ๐Ÿ‘. I'm amazed at the great smell the beautiful buds give off๐Ÿ˜€. Of course I cut cuttings and if the taste is as good as the smell it will be grown again โ˜บ๏ธ. A final report comes with the Smoke Report. Until then, I would like to say thank you to the whole Green House team and wish you all the best fun with the diary ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป Have fun and stay healthy ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ โ€˜Powered by GreenHouse Feedingโ€™ Copy the link for 10% off all Nutrients ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ http://shop.greenhousefeeding.com/ affiliate/madelngermany_passiongrower/ ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ Water ๐Ÿ’ง ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿ’ง Osmosis water mixed with Cal/Mag (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 290 ppm and Ph with Ph- to 5.8 - 6.4 MadeInGermany
Candy Rain Auto By Zamnesia
๐Ÿฌ Candy Rain Auto by Zamnesia | Week 11 โœจ The Glamorous Survivor Is Bulking Up Welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š Well... Our other solo survivor is still doing exactly what she has been doing from the beginning. Her own thing. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฌ And honestly? I'm really starting to love the way this girl is developing. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's putting flowers absolutely everywhere. She's developing a beautiful structure. She's maintaining that gorgeous colour. And those pistils... Oh, those pistils. ๐Ÿ˜ They're not the bright, almost pure white we're seeing on some of the other girls. They're starting to carry a warmer, slightly yellowish tone. And against that beautiful green foliage and developing flowers? It looks absolutely gorgeous. She's becoming one of those plants where you don't need anything dramatic to happen. You just walk in... look at her... and smile. Because she's doing beautifully. ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’šโœจ 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 THE SOLO SURVIVOR KEEPS SHINING 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 by now we've officially moved past the "survivor" part of the story. ๐Ÿ˜‚ She survived. She established herself. She grew. She flowered. And now? She's building. Big time. Candy Rain continues to develop at her own rhythm, and what I'm really enjoying this week is how much more substantial the flowering structure is becoming. She's not simply maintaining flowers anymore. She's building them. Stacking them. Bulking them. And filling her plant with them. This girl has flowers everywhere. ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ And somehow she still maintains that elegant, calm personality we've come to know. She's not screaming for attention. She's just quietly becoming more and more impressive. And honestly... that's a beautiful way to grow. 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 SHE'S STACKING 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 catching my attention this week. The stacking. The flowers are building on top of the structure we've been watching develop over the previous weeks. Individual flowering sites are becoming increasingly substantial. The bud structures are becoming more defined. And when you look across the plant, you start seeing flowers everywhere you look. This is the point where all those earlier weeks of development start paying off visually. The framework was built. The flowers appeared. The flowers developed. And now they're beginning to bulk. It's really satisfying to watch. Because this isn't one impressive cola doing all the work. It's the whole plant participating. Flower after flower. Branch after branch. Stack after stack. ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”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”€ ๐Ÿ’š BUDS EVERYWHERE 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 of the things I really like about Candy Rain is how evenly she seems to be filling her space. Look around her... there are flowers everywhere. And that's what makes her so enjoyable to photograph. You can start with the whole plant. Then you find one branch. Then another. Then another flower. And suddenly you're wondering how you didn't notice all those flowers before. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ She's becoming increasingly full. The individual flowers are gaining presence. The structure is becoming more substantial. And the overall plant is starting to look like one beautiful flowering mass rather than simply a plant that happens to have flowers on it. She's getting there. And she's getting there 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”€ ๐ŸŒผ THOSE PISTILS... โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Now let's talk about something I particularly noticed this week. The pistils. ๐Ÿ˜ They're beautiful. But they're not the same bright white we're seeing on some of the other girls. Candy Rain is giving us a slightly warmer expression. A little more yellowish. A little more golden. And against the green foliage? It's stunning. There's something about that warmer tone that gives the flowers a completely different character. It's subtle. It's not screaming for attention. But once you notice it... you keep noticing it. And that's exactly what I love about phenotype hunting. Sometimes the differences aren't enormous. Sometimes they're little details. A slightly different colour. A slightly different structure. A different rhythm. A different way of stacking. And those little differences become part of the identity of the plant. Candy Rain has her own signature. ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ’š 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 THE FROST IS STILL THERE 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 of course... we can't forget the resin. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ„๏ธ The flowers continue developing that beautiful frosty character. The closer you look, the more detail appears. Trichomes. Pistils. Flower structure. Texture. All those little things happening simultaneously. And this is exactly where photography becomes dangerous again. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ You take one photograph. Then you see something interesting. So you move closer. Then you see even more. And before you know it, you've been staring at one flower for ten minutes. But that's the beauty of this stage. The plants are giving us more and more detail to discover. And Candy Rain has plenty. 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 BEAUTIFUL COLOUR, BEAUTIFUL CONTRAST 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 thing I continue to really like about this girl is the colour. Those deep greens. The flowers developing against them. The warmer pistils. The frost developing across the flower surfaces. Everything is coming together beautifully. She's got that rich, almost classic flowering-plant appearance. Nothing feels out of place. Nothing is screaming for attention. It's simply... balanced. And sometimes balance is what makes a plant beautiful. Candy Rain doesn't need to be the strangest plant in the room. She doesn't need to be the tallest. She doesn't need to have the most unusual structure. She simply needs to be herself. And she's doing that extremely well. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ SAME ROOM. SAME WORLD. 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”€ And once again, we come back to the heart of the 8ร—8 Adventure. For anyone discovering this diary now: We're growing twelve different plants together under the same general ecosystem. Same room. Same lighting philosophy. Same 12/12 schedule. Same environmental strategy. Same general nutritional program. Same grower. Same attention. And yet... look at how differently they express themselves. Some stretch. Some stay compact. Some race ahead. Some take their time. Some become extremely frosty. Some build enormous structures. Some have unusual colours. And Candy Rain? She has become this beautiful, balanced, flower-loaded survivor who is now quietly bulking up all over the place. That's what makes this experiment so enjoyable. The environment gives them the opportunity. Genetics decide what they do with it. ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’š 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 MORE PHOTONS, SAME 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”€ The lighting environment has also received its upgrade. We've added two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures to the room. When we first brought the extra lighting in, the available PPFD was higher than we wanted for our target. So rather than simply throwing everything at the plants... we reduced the output. We're now around: ๐Ÿ’ก ~59% power from the plug with approximately: โ˜€๏ธ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy and naturally less depending on plant height and position. That's one of the things I really like about having more lighting capability. We don't have to run everything at maximum. We can have the photons available... and decide how many we actually want to use. And Candy Rain? She's receiving the same upgraded environment as everybody else. Same photons. Same room. Same conditions. And she's responding in her own way. ๐Ÿ’ก๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿฌ 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 THE ARTIFICIAL SUN KEEPS SHINING 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 is something really fascinating about watching twelve plants receive essentially the same artificial sun... and then seeing twelve different interpretations of it. We give them photons. They decide what to do with them. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Candy Rain is clearly putting hers to work. She's building flowers. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's maintaining beautiful foliage. And she's continuing to develop without asking us to reinvent the entire grow around her. That's exactly the kind of relationship I like with a plant. Provide. Observe. Adjust when necessary. And let the plant do the rest. ๐ŸŒฑโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ’š 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 NUTRITION โ€“ A LITTLE MORE FUEL 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 nutrition has also been adjusted together with the rest of the room. Terra Bloom has moved from: ๐ŸŒฑ 2.2 ml/L โ†’ 2.3 ml/L while the rest of the flowering program remains: ๐ŸŒฑ Terra Bloom โ€“ 2.3 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Power Buds โ€“ 1 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Green Sensation โ€“ 1 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Sugar Royal โ€“ 1 ml/L โš—๏ธ pH adjustment as required That small increase has brought the solution strength up slightly. Current readings are around: โš—๏ธ pH โ€“ ~6.02 โšก EC โ€“ ~2.14 mS/cm And Candy Rain is responding beautifully. Again... nothing special just for her. No secret recipe. No different room. No special treatment. Same nutritional strategy as the rest of the girls. And she's taking it... and building. ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒธ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒก๏ธ WEEK 11 โ€“ CURRENT CONDITIONS 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 room is currently sitting around: ๐ŸŒธ Flowering: Week 11 ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule: 12/12 ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature: ~26.5ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature: ~26ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง Relative humidity: ~61% โš—๏ธ pH: ~6.02 โšก EC: ~2.14 mS/cm ๐Ÿ’ฆ Nutrient solution temperature: ~25ยฐC ๐ŸŒฑ Substrate temperature: ~25ยฐC ๐Ÿ’จ COโ‚‚: ~693 ppm ?

We're moving beyond: "She's flowering." We're now seeing: "She's building flowers." And that's a different feeling. The flowers are gaining volume. The structures are becoming more substantial. The stacking is becoming more obvious. And there are so many of them. This is where the plant starts becoming visually rewarding in a completely different way. Earlier, we were watching for flower formation. Now we're watching what those flowers become. And Candy Rain is giving us plenty to watch. ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”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”€ ๐Ÿฌ THE GLAMOROUS SURVIVOR HAS EVOLVED โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Maybe "Glamorous Survivor" isn't quite enough anymore. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Because now she's becoming: โœจ The Glamorous Survivor Who Came to Bulk. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒธ She survived. She established herself. She became beautiful. She entered flowering. She developed her structure. She stacked. And now... she's bulking. There's something very satisfying about seeing that progression. Especially because we never really knew what this girl was going to become when the adventure started. She was simply the one that remained. And now she's one of the plants I genuinely look forward to checking every week. That's a pretty good evolution. 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 THE CAMERA IS GOING TO HAVE FUN โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ With the way the flowers are developing now, I already know the camera is going to have plenty of work. Wide shots will show the overall structure. Closer shots will show the stacking. And macro? ๐Ÿ˜‚ Macro is going to become dangerous again. Because those warmer pistils. Those developing trichomes. Those flower structures. That frost. The textures. All of it deserves a closer look. Candy Rain is becoming one of those plants where every step closer reveals something else. And I love that. 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’š NO NEED TO FORCE HER 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 hasn't changed. I'm still not trying to make her into something she's not. She's healthy. She's growing. She's flowering. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's maintaining beautiful colour. She's developing exactly as we'd like to see. So... why interfere unnecessarily? At this stage, sometimes the best thing a grower can do is simply keep the environment stable and let the plant finish expressing itself. We've already done the work needed to establish the structure. Now? Let her shine. Let her build. Let her show us what she's capable of. ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’šโœจ 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 DOESN'T NEED THE CROWN 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 that's another thing I love about Candy Rain. She's not trying to win anything. She doesn't seem interested in competing with the other girls. She's just doing her own thing. Some of the girls are fighting for attention. Some are absolutely screaming: "LOOK AT ME!" ๐Ÿ˜‚ Candy Rain? She's standing there with her beautiful flowers and warmer pistils like: "I'm good." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฌ And honestly... that's enough. She doesn't need the crown. She just needs her spotlight. And this week... she's getting 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”€ At this point, my attention is going toward: ๐ŸŒธ How much more will the flowers bulk? ๐ŸŒฟ How much more will the stacking develop? โ„๏ธ How much more resin will appear? ๐ŸŒผ How will those warmer pistil colours evolve? ๐Ÿ’š How will the foliage continue to look as the plant matures? And most importantly... how far will this beautiful survivor take her story? We're still not finished. There are still chapters left. So I'm simply watching. And enjoying. ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’š 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 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”€ So... Week 11. Candy Rain Auto. Our other solo survivor. And she's looking fantastic. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's developing flowers everywhere. She's building beautiful structure. She's becoming increasingly frosty. She's maintaining those gorgeous deep greens. And those slightly warmer, yellowish pistils are giving her a character all of her own. She's not trying to be another plant. She's not trying to match another phenotype. She's simply being Candy Rain. And honestly? I love it. ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’šโœจ So let's make her shine. Let's give this girl the spotlight. Let's appreciate what she's building. And let's see how much more she has left to show us. 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 reminder that sometimes the most unexpected plants become some of the most enjoyable ones to follow. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a place to document these journeys, share experiences and learn together. Thank you to Zamnesia for the genetics behind our beautiful Candy Rain survivor. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting the garden. Thank you to Future of Grow for providing the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and helping us expand the lighting capability of the room. ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’š Thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into 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 person who stops by to see what the girls are doing this week. It genuinely means a lot. And Candy Rain? Our solo survivor is still here. Still beautiful. Still growing. Still stacking. Still bulking. Still shining. And now... looking more and more like a girl who has decided she's going to make every flower count. ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒธโœจ She started this adventure simply because she was the one who remained. Now she's become one of the girls I genuinely enjoy watching every single week. The Glamorous Survivor. The Solo Survivor. The Flower-Loaded Survivor. And this week... the Bulking Survivor. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’š Let's keep watching. Let's keep documenting. Let's keep photographing. And let's let this beautiful girl continue doing what she does best. Growing in her own rhythm. Building in her own way. And shining without ever needing to ask for the spotlight. Because this week... the spotlight belongs to Candy Rain. ๐Ÿฌโœจ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ‘‘ Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿฌ

Couldn't get much slower really could we? Haha I'm not complaining just mentioning is all. She's a beautiful girl, with top heavy buds I'm surprised she's still holding herself up. Gonna make her look like a Christmas tree then harvest her. Time stands still for no plant and I simply need the room for more plants.
