17.12 F47 I am definitely thinking I mixed up the seeds now. The 2 in the airpots are now likely to be the same strain and I'm guessing royal gorilla because of the purpleing. The 2 in the fabric pots must be cookies gelato. They are taller, greener and way thicker stems. If anyone could chime in and help me out identifying the two strains that would be appreciated ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ Still no nutes given. Under 12 hours of spiderfarmer light 19.12 Day 49 Noticed some odd (or not) deformeties on the 2 (what I believe to be after the potential mixup) cookies gelato....
First ever grow - Bty og 2x4 tent
Did some more LST on the bty. Going to let it veg until march before i flip to 12/12, as long as its tall enough. I accidentally topped one of them during lst so it will be an expirement to see how it goes. Light at about 65% inensity until i can keep the tent cool at 100% intensity. Plants looking good, getting a little nutrient deficient so the soil is pretty much done. Will start their feeding regiment with florafex full tilt nutes next week

So, I harvested my 2 older girls around 4 weeks ago, the 2 younger ones took that extra 4 weeks, just chopped them now! Initially, I was really upset when I harvested the first two - they just looked really bad and loads of fluffy larf. So, I wrote a negative review but I deleted it because when I smoked some, it was really good! LOL. But still just had no good aesthetic. I decided to feed the younger ones way more nutes than I was giving the other ones, and increased the rate of water feeds... and WOW. They responded so well and they came out HUGE!!!! MAN!!! These nugs came out beastly. The older ones 100% were being fed way too low a dosage of nutes, and were not watered frequently enough. I've only just chopped them all and hung up to dry. Will update with a smoke report when they're ready! So, the pics im posting are of the two younger plants that were harvested later. I do not have pics of the earlier harvest, unfortunately, but it looked terrible (from my own doing it seems as I mentioned above). As you can see in the first pic, I had to hold her up as she was falling over on her own weight because the nugs were so heavy (actually had to use many ties to keep both the plants from falling in the final 2 weeks). Not too many pics but just an idea of how they were looking. Dense, big, frosty - not SUPER gassy in smell but still smells good! The side branches were all looking like main colas! Didn't LST or anything, just a bit of lollipopping and let it do its thing! Each pic is of a different bud site. Will also update with more details such as weight when it's dry! Stay safe, friends! โ”(๏ผพ0๏ผพ)โ”› -TickTockCroc

These ladies continue to develop very nicely and lucky stopped stretching pretty much in the beginning of this week and the buds are forming super nicely. Since I also donโ€™t observe a stretch in flower anymore, I decided to feed pk13/14 for the next week. It continues to surprise me how hungry these autos are, much hungrier than my glookies fro example. Unfortunately I realized that the plant on the very right of the box produces much smaller buds than the other two. I am pinning that on the fan right above her, so have pointed it slightly higher, but I guess the damage is done:(.
TicaL X Zamnesia-NectarDrip pack#268/750
๐ŸŒฟ Nectar Drip โ€“ Week 3 Report Early Vegetative Phase (12/12 from Seed) Zamnesia Seeds x TICAL โ€“ Pack #268 ๐ŸŒฑ Growth Stage Overview We are officially in Week 3 since germination, which places the plants in early vegetative development, even though this run is being done 12/12 from seed. Growth remains measured and intentional, exactly as expected under this approach. All plants look healthy, lush, and stable, with no signs of stress. What stands out this week is the difference in growth rhythm between phenotypes: โ€ข One plant is clearly leading, already showing fully developed true leaves with three fingers, moving confidently toward the fourth. โ€ข One plant is developing at a slower pace, still focusing on building structure and leaf mass. โ€ข One sits right in between, balanced and steady. This kind of variation is normal and welcome at this stage. Same genetics, same environment โ€” different expressions. Time will tell which one becomes the champion, but for now, all of them are doing exactly what they should. โธป ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Environment & Climate Control The environment remains consistent and stable, which is key at this phase: โ€ข Relative Humidity: ~75โ€“80% โ€ข Day Temperature: ~27 ยฐC โ€ข Night Temperature: ~18 ยฐC โ€ข COโ‚‚: ~666 ppm โ€ข Light Distance: ~1.78 m from canopy โ€ข Substrate Temperature: ~22 ยฐC โ€ข Solution Temperature: ~22 ยฐC Airflow is still kept soft and minimal, just enough to refresh the air without disturbing young plants. At this stage, we prioritize calm conditions over aggressive air movement. โธป ๐Ÿ’ก Lighting The plants continue under the Future of Grow Air Grow Pro III Hyper Red, controlled via the Nova 2C Pro. The light intensity and distance are intentionally conservative, encouraging steady development rather than forced growth. With 12/12 from seed, patience is essential โ€” weโ€™re building structure now so the stretch and early flower development later can happen cleanly and naturally. โธป Substrate & Containers โ€ข Containers: 15 L plastic bags โ€ข Medium: ProMix Even though top growth appears slow, whatโ€™s happening below the surface is far more important right now. Root systems are expanding, branching, and learning the container. This is often invisible work โ€” but it sets the pace for everything that follows. โธป Nutrition โ€“ Philosophy & Application Weโ€™re continuing with a hybrid organicโ€“mineral approach, which is something I personally believe in. For me, this offers the best of both worlds: โ€ข the precision and consistency of mineral nutrition, โ€ข combined with the biological support and resilience associated with organic inputs. Current Nutrition (Light but Consistent): โ€ข Plagron Terra Grow (base nutrition) โ€ข Power Roots (root stimulation) โ€ข Pure Zym (enzyme support) โ€ข Sugar Royal (metabolic & microbial support) โ€ข Vita Race (foliar & vitality support) โ€ข TDS / EC: ~1.0 โ€ข pH: ~6.8 The feeding strategy remains steady and repeatable. No chasing trends, no unnecessary changes. The plants are responding with deep green color, strong leaf posture, and balanced growth, which tells us the nutrition is doing its job. Vita Race is being applied confidently, without fear, as part of a proactive approach to plant vitality and stress resistance. โธป Watering โ€ข Volume: ~0.4 L per plant โ€ข Frequency: every 24 hours Watering remains controlled and deliberate, ensuring moisture availability without oversaturation. This supports oxygen availability in the root zone and encourages healthy root exploration. โธป Observations & Interpretation Growth is slow โ€” and thatโ€™s expected. Running 12/12 from seed means plants prioritize root establishment and internal signaling before expressing visible vertical growth. What matters now is not size, but balance. Leaf color is excellent, structure is clean, and there are no signs of deficiency or toxicity. The differences between plants are genetic expression, not environmental error. Personally, I believe that below the soil surface, things are moving fast โ€” just not in ways we can immediately see. Over the next couple of weeks, I expect a noticeable acceleration in visible development as root systems finish establishing themselves. โธป What to Expect / What Not to Expect What to Expect: โ€ข Gradual acceleration in growth over the next 1โ€“2 weeks โ€ข Continued phenotype variation โ€ข Increased leaf complexity and structure โ€ข Stable transition toward early flower behavior due to 12/12 What Not to Expect: โ€ข Explosive vegetative growth โ€ข Uniform plant size โ€ข Immediate stretch or flowering signals This is a long game, not a sprint. โธป ๐Ÿค Gratitude & Community Huge thanks to: โ€ข Zamnesia Seeds โ€ข TICAL (artist & collaborator) โ€ข Plagron โ€ข Future of Grow for supporting this journey and making this collaboration possible.

Photography is part of the story โ€” itโ€™s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words canโ€™t always capture. Iโ€™ve also started experimenting with photo stacking โ€” a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. Itโ€™s not digital enhancement or AI; itโ€™s pure photography โ€” a way to reveal the plantโ€™s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. Youโ€™ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots โ€” camera, lens, setup โ€” because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art. FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial ๐Ÿ’ก P.S.2 โ€“ PPFD Progression Explained You may notice in some of the photos a reference board showing weeks and PPFD levels, so hereโ€™s a quick explanation to give context. For plants that were run under 18/6, the PPFD progression looked like this: โ€ข Week 1: ~300 PPFD โ€ข Week 2: ~400 PPFD Once we transitioned and aligned everything under 12/12, the light intensity was gradually increased to match plant maturity: โ€ข Week 3: ~500 PPFD โ€ข Current: moving between 500โ€“600 PPFD, depending on plant height and development From here on, the approach is simple and intuitive: the plants grow toward the light, and we allow the PPFD to rise naturally as the canopy gets closer and stronger. We donโ€™t force intensity โ€” we let the plants tell us when theyโ€™re ready. This progressive increase helps avoid stress, encourages healthy structure, and allows the plants to adapt smoothly to higher light levels over time.

Hey uys how is it going? I must tell you This dude If you want tons of buds And really awesome smell Then you should get Cream Mandarine XL From Sweet Seeds Yo mine was literally dying when early seedling, but manage to save her and look Omg she's so gorgeous I love it Thank you so much sweet seeds for your support and encouragement thank you for those awesome gifts Alright guys so I'm on day 126 Right now, I have been feeding her for like forever cuz she's been my first XL She's so huge and I'm so happy we got her. Buds are so fatty, they're most likely orange right now. Tons of them but still has some of them on the bottom tiny ones with white hairs as well, dude this is so amazing... Plan on to harvest her tomorrow tho Not all of her but I will take most of the ones that are ready to go, will let light get to the ones on the bottom to see if they get fatty as well. Will feed her nutes after taking some flowers from her. I love my girls for real, sometimes don't want to even hurt them but haha you have to get the buds ya know xD Lol I'm stoned. Alright guys sorry happy new year 2021 Everybody I just forgot to tell you my pc is fckdd up right now so was hard to upload pics but now I have time and space on my phone as well so there you go... Some pics and some videos I will try to add the remaining weeks from 12-16 so you can see her progress alright And also, thank you for everything grow diaries

Excellent strain from Gnostic ((Forum GSC x Black Raspberry Trainwreck) x Gorilla Wreck) Gorgeous color on both of these - more so shined thru on the pheno 2. Pheno 1 leaned more sativa as far as stretch and airyness of bud, structure of bud. Yielded 70 grams dry Pheno 2 had insanely tight buds, more trich density.. terps a bit stronger on this one too.

I added some hazel nut shells as a mulch and so far I think I'll let her grow as she is without LST. As I noticed - not sure if it's true or not - that outdoor LST stunned 2 of my plants. Whereas a really weak at the beginning plant - without leaves up to 3 nodes - right now outgrew both champs. I transplanted BPP weird enough, so now she leans to the side so much. That's because I am used to LST and like to have some room for a plant to lay on the ground. But this time I holding my hands to not to do any LST and let her grow naturally. Day 26 - I sprayed fungicide on her, because many times ended up with botrytis

Watching her closely, sheโ€™s getting there but isnโ€™t quite ready. Tried a bud off her and sheโ€™s already pretty potent. I am waiting 10-14 more days I think... maybe longer depending on trichโ€™s. Hoping to get a little more amber and a little more swelling to the buds. I had to put a trellis net in to help support the buds, some were getting close to snapping. My favorite bud is on the top right, sheโ€™s weighing that branch down nicely. Iโ€™m excited to see how this plant finishes up.
Blueberry  Muffin by Zamnesia Pheno A
8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Week 11 Blueberry Muffin โ€“ Pheno A ๐Ÿ’š Sometimes The Best Thing We Can Do Is Watch Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And if you've been following this project for a while, you already know that every week doesn't necessarily bring another big intervention. Sometimes there are scissors. Sometimes there is training. Sometimes there are environmental changes. Sometimes there are surprises. And sometimes... The plants simply reach a point where they don't need us doing much at all. That's where we are this week. Blueberry Muffin Pheno A is continuing her journey exactly as we've come to expect from her. Compact. Calm. Beautiful. And completely comfortable doing things at her own pace. So this week, we're not going to manufacture work just so we can say we did something. We're going to watch. We're going to water. We're going to provide what she asks for. And we're going to let her flower. Because at this stage... That's exactly what she needs. 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 Week 11 โ€“ The Quiet Part Of Flowering There is something interesting about reaching this stage of a grow. Earlier in the cycle, there is always something happening. Training. Defoliation. Canopy management. Branch positioning. Establishing the plants. Adjusting the environment. Watching the plants develop. But eventually, you reach a point where the foundation has already been built. The plant has its structure. The flowering sites are established. The roots are established. The irrigation is established. The lighting is established. The nutrition is established. And now... The plant has to do the work. That's where Blueberry Muffin is right now. We're not ignoring her. Far from it. We're watching closely. But watching doesn't always mean touching. And sometimes knowing when not to intervene is just as important as knowing when to intervene. 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 12/12 From Seed โ€“ Why This Stage Is So Interesting One of the things that makes this particular project so interesting is that these plants have been grown under 12/12 from seed. That's very different from taking a traditionally vegetated plant and flipping it into flower after building a large vegetative structure. With 12/12 from seed, we're allowing the plant to develop and flower under the same photoperiod from the beginning. That means the architecture we see now is the result of the plant expressing itself under those conditions rather than being built through a long conventional vegetative period before the flip. And that's one of the reasons I love documenting these plants individually. We're not simply asking: "What does this strain look like?" We're asking: "What does this particular phenotype decide to become under this particular growing philosophy?" And Blueberry Muffin has answered that question pretty clearly. She likes being compact. She likes taking her time. And she seems perfectly happy building flowers without trying to take over the room. ๐Ÿ˜‚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”€ ๐ŸŒฑ Why We're Not Doing Much Right Now At this stage of flowering, I don't see a reason to keep manipulating the plant simply because I have scissors available. ๐Ÿ˜‚ The structure is already established. The canopy is already where we want it. The flowers are developing. The foliage is supporting the plant. And there isn't anything obvious asking for intervention. So what do we do? We provide what she needs. Water. Nutrition. Light. Airflow. A stable environment. And time. That's it. It sounds simple. And honestly... It is. But simple doesn't mean careless. Quite the opposite. This is the point where observation becomes extremely important. We're watching the flowers. We're watching the foliage. We're watching the plant's overall posture. We're watching how quickly she is consuming water. We're watching environmental conditions. And if she tells us something needs attention... We'll respond. Until then? Let her be. 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 The Plant Gets The Final Vote This has always been one of the principles behind the 8ร—8 Adventure. The numbers are useful. The equipment is useful. The experience is useful. But ultimately... The plant gets the final vote. We can measure everything. We can record temperatures. We can record pH. We can record EC. We can measure light. We can track irrigation. But then you look at the plant. And sometimes she tells you more in five seconds than a spreadsheet can tell you in five hours. Blueberry Muffin looks comfortable. She's developing. She's flowering. She's maintaining healthy foliage. And she isn't asking for anything dramatic. So I'm listening. 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 A Major Lighting Upgrade โ€“ Two More Black Series 600W Fixtures Now... Although we're not doing much to the plants themselves... We did make a pretty significant change to the lighting environment this week. Future of Grow provided us with two additional Black Series 600W fixtures for us to test and see how the plants respond. And when we added them... Well... The plants suddenly had access to a lot more light. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ก The PPFD increased more than I wanted initially. So rather than simply running the fixtures at maximum power because we had the available wattage, we adjusted the output. We brought the fixtures down in power to find a level that made more sense for the room and the plants. We're currently running at approximately 59% power from the plug. At this setting, we're seeing an average of approximately 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy, with the actual intensity naturally becoming lower depending on plant height and position. And honestly? I'm very happy with 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”Œ More Power Doesn't Automatically Mean Better This is something I think is worth emphasizing. Just because you have more lighting available doesn't mean you have to run everything at maximum output. We added two more powerful fixtures. The PPFD went higher than I wanted. So we turned them down. Simple. ๐Ÿ˜‚ There is no prize for running the LEDs at 100%. The objective is to create an environment where the plants can actually make good use of the light being provided. And by lowering the output, we're also reducing unnecessary electrical consumption. That's a win in several directions. Less electricity. Less unnecessary stress on the fixtures. Less unnecessary heat from running equipment harder than necessary. And we're still providing a very strong light environment. So sometimes... Turning the dial down is actually the smart move. 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 1,500 PPFD At The Top โ€“ Then Naturally Less Below The approximately 1,500 PPFD average across the top canopy is just that: An upper-canopy measurement. Not every flower on the plant receives the same intensity. Plant height changes things. Canopy position changes things. Leaf angle changes things. Distance from the fixtures changes things. And that's perfectly normal. This is also where the layered lighting philosophy of the 8ร—8 Adventure becomes interesting. We're not trying to make every single part of the plant receive exactly the same amount of light. We're trying to create a useful overall light environment. And with these additional Future of Grow fixtures now in place, we have considerably more lighting capability available to us. We can control it. We can adjust it. And we can find the level that makes sense. That's much more useful than simply having more watts for the sake of having more watts. 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™ A Huge Shout-Out To Future Of Grow I want to give Future of Grow a particularly big thank you this week. Providing these two additional Black Series 600W fixtures gives us the opportunity to test something that I find extremely interesting: What happens when we substantially increase the available lighting power... and then control it to find the level we actually want? That's a much more interesting experiment than simply turning everything to maximum and calling it a day. We're going to watch. We're going to compare. We're going to see how the plants respond. And we're going to document the results. That's exactly what I enjoy about this project. We're not just growing. We're experimenting. We're observing. And we're learning. 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 Blueberry Muffin Under The New Light And Blueberry Muffin? She's taking it beautifully. Her compact architecture makes her particularly interesting to watch under this new lighting environment. The flowers are continuing to develop. The foliage remains healthy. And the plant isn't giving me any reason to start changing things simply for the sake of changing them. So we're going to leave her alone. The lights are doing their job. The roots are doing their job. The plant is doing her job. My job is simply to make sure everything around her continues functioning properly. And honestly... I really enjoy that part. 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 The Quiet Personality Of Pheno A If you've been following this diary from the beginning, you'll know that Blueberry Muffin Pheno A has never been the loudest personality in the room. She didn't try to become the tallest. She didn't demand constant training. She didn't explode vertically. She simply established her own rhythm. And that rhythm continues. She's compact. She's controlled. She's quietly productive. And now she's entering the later part of flowering with a beautiful collection of developing flowers. There is something really satisfying about that. She hasn't needed to be pushed. She hasn't needed to be forced. She's simply been allowed to become what she wanted to become. And I think that's one of the most interesting things about phenotype hunting. Sometimes the plant tells you exactly who she is. You just have to pay attention. 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 What We've Done To Get Here It's also worth remembering that this quiet week didn't happen by accident. There was a lot of work before we reached this point. We established the plants. We developed the structure. We trained where necessary. We managed the canopy. We maintained the environment. We established the irrigation. We built the nutritional program. We adjusted lighting. We observed the plant. And eventually... All that preparation brings you to a stage where the plant doesn't need constant intervention anymore. That's the payoff. The work doesn't disappear. It simply changes. Earlier: "What do I need to do?" Now: "What is she telling me?" And those are very different questions. 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’ง Nutrition & Irrigation โ€“ A Small Step Forward The flowering nutrition has been increased slightly this week. We're not making a dramatic change. We're simply moving Terra Bloom from 2.2 ml/L to 2.3 ml/L. The current recipe is: โ€ข Terra Bloom โ€” 2.3 ml/L โ€ข Pure Zym โ€” 1 ml/L โ€ข Power Buds โ€” 1 ml/L โ€ข Sugar Royal โ€” 1 ml/L โ€ข pH Plus โ€” 0.03 ml/L โ€ข Lemon Kick โ€” 0.03 ml/L That small increase in Terra Bloom has brought the EC up slightly as well. We're now sitting around 2.14 mS/cm. Nothing dramatic. Just a small, measured increase as the plants continue progressing through flowering. I like these kinds of adjustments. We're not suddenly changing the entire program. We're simply giving the plants a little more support and watching how they respond. Irrigation is currently around: 1.45 L per plant / 24 hours. And as always... The plant gets the final vote. 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 This week's recorded conditions are: โ€ข ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day Temperature: 26.5ยฐC โ€ข ๐ŸŒ™ Night Temperature: 26ยฐC โ€ข ๐Ÿ’ง Relative Humidity: 61% โ€ข ๐Ÿฅฅ Substrate Temperature: 25ยฐC โ€ข ๐Ÿ’ฆ Nutrient Solution Temperature: 25ยฐC โ€ข โš—๏ธ pH: 6.02 โ€ข โšก EC: 2.14 mS/cm โ€ข ๐Ÿ’จ COโ‚‚: approximately 693 ppm โ€ข ๐Ÿ’ก Light Schedule: 12/12 โ€ข ๐Ÿ’ง Irrigation: approximately 1.45 L/plant/24h โ€ข ? Pot Size: 15 L โ€ข ๐Ÿ“ Plant Height: approximately 75 cm The environment remains stable, and Blueberry Muffin continues responding beautifully. Summer is still capable of giving us small fluctuations, of course, but we're keeping the important variables controlled and avoiding unnecessary swings. At this stage, stability is more valuable than constantly chasing perfection. 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 This Is Where Observation Becomes Everything At this stage, the diary becomes less about describing something dramatic that happened and more about documenting subtle changes. Are the flowers gaining size? Are the pistils progressing? Is the foliage maintaining its colour? Is the plant drinking differently? Is the structure changing? Is resin development becoming more obvious? Those little observations become increasingly important as flowering progresses. And that's why I still love taking the photographs every week. Because sometimes the change isn't obvious when you're standing in front of the plant every day. Then you put two photographs next to each other... And suddenly: There it is. She's changed. She's matured. She's moved forward. That's the beauty of documentation. 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€“ What Happens Now? From here, I don't expect dramatic changes. And that's actually a good thing. The coming weeks are about maturity. The plant will continue developing the flowers she has already established. We'll watch them gain size and density. We'll watch the pistils change. We'll watch the resin develop. We'll continue monitoring the foliage. And we'll keep providing whatever she asks for. The new Future of Grow lighting gives us another variable to observe as well. We've increased our lighting capability substantially, then brought the output down to a level we're comfortable with. Now we'll watch what the plants do with that available light. And Blueberry Muffin? She gets to continue being Blueberry Muffin. Quiet. Compact. Patient. And increasingly floral. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒธ 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 Final Thoughts โ€“ Let The Girl Finish There is something I really enjoy about this stage of a grow. You reach a point where you realize: We've done enough. Not because we're finished. But because the plant has reached the point where more intervention isn't necessarily better. She's got her structure. She's got her roots. She's got her flowers. She's got her light. She's got her nutrition. She's got her water. She's got her environment. Now... She needs time. And I think that's especially true with a 12/12-from-seed plant like Blueberry Muffin. We've watched her develop under this philosophy from the beginning. We haven't tried to turn her into something she's not. We've allowed her compact personality to remain. And now we're getting to see what that personality produces when given enough time to finish. So no... There isn't a huge training story this week. There isn't a dramatic intervention. There isn't a crisis. And honestly? I'm perfectly happy about that. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’š Sometimes the best update is: She's happy. She's flowering. She's developing beautifully. And we're letting her do it. That's Blueberry Muffin Pheno A. Quietly getting the job 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”€ ๐Ÿ™ Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for giving us the opportunity to explore these Blueberry Muffin genetics and follow this beautiful phenotype throughout her journey. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting this flowering cycle and helping us keep the plants moving forward consistently. A massive thank you to Future of Grow for not only providing the Black Series lighting we've already been using, but now also for providing two additional Black Series 600W fixtures for us to test in the 8ร—8 Adventure. Having the opportunity to increase the available lighting power and then dial it back to find the level that makes sense for the plants is exactly the kind of real-world testing I enjoy documenting. And a special thank you to Lumiflora for the additional lighting support deeper within the canopy. Thank you as well to everyone following this crazy 8ร—8 Adventure on GrowDiaries. Every plant continues writing her own story. Some are loud. Some are fast. Some demand attention. And some... like Blueberry Muffin... simply keep their heads down and quietly get the job done. This week, there's not much more I want to do to her. And that's okay. Sometimes cultivation is about knowing when to intervene. And sometimes... it's about knowing when to step back. Blueberry Muffin is flowering. She's healthy. She's developing. She's getting the photons. She's getting a little more nutrition. And now we're going to give her the one thing no grower can manufacture: time. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒธ Until next week... Keep doing your thing, beautiful girl. I'll be watching. Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š

Video 2: 7 days (29~35) TimeLapse, 1 image each 60 secs @ 30 fps Video 9: An overview video not as awesome as the music ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ช Video 10: Myself working on the babies, lowering tops, topping & training. -----WEEK SUMMARY----- Well, now i'm getting a bit scared as i adventured myself into Photoperiod, high training, full topping... in indoors at once. I feel that plants are going good, but i really don't know what am i doing, and if i'm doing well. Also i don't know how much time should i give them of vegetation stage, because i don't want to eternalize myself with this tent, so i'm planning to leave this upcoming 6th week and maybe the 7th of vegetation, but no more. Anyway they look pretty atm ๐Ÿ˜ป. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 24/03/19 - 1.000 ml with all week nutrients @ 0.9 E.C.

Me he aventurado a probar con fotodependientes, entrenamiento fuerte y super topping, todo a la vez. Siento que las plantas van bien, pero realmente no se lo que estoy haciendo ni si lo estoy haciendo bien. Tambiรฉn tengo dudas sobre cuento tiempo mรกs dejarlas en estado vegetativo ya que no me quiero eternizar con este armario. Por lo que estoy planeando dejar esta sexta semana de crecimiento y quizรกs una sรฉptima, pero no mรกs. Aun asรญ y con todo, se ven preciosas ๐Ÿ˜ป. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 24/03/19 - 1.000 ml con todos los nutrientes semanales @ 0.9 E.C. PH5.8
