Plants are blowing up should begin flowering soon.

This week I Realised I'd used the wrong feed chart so I was over feeding 🙄 the leaves burnt on a few plants so I've only fed them water this week and will resume feeding from next week. There are still no pre sex pistils showing but it can't be far off now. As soon as pistils start to show I'll start feeding bloom feed. I've turned the light up to 30000lux using HLG's online calculator for converting a lux meter/app reading to PAR , my light is 3000k which with lm301H Led's works out @ 465ppfd which is about the max the plants can use in veg without supliments co2. Here's the link for anyone using quantum boards, it has different spectrum calculators. It's been really useful setting my light up so big thank you to HLG (even though I have a Geeklight) and a thank you to the GML show on YouTube for bringing it to growers attention (I love that weekly show, so much info and perspective) https://horticulturelightinggroup.com/blogs/calculators/converting-lux-to-ppfd Hope everyone's staying safe and growing 😎

Start of week 3 I believe the girls are doing good a few minor worries but that’s at ease for now I think , i have added nutes at a low level and will increase once I see how the plants react to the introduction of the nutes .. Looking into starting lsd on some plants but not too sure wether it’s to early or so . will continue to update the week but for now Started lst on a few plants day 15 and seen good reactions by day 17 so quite happy with that and will continue this process I will also look into topping my plants as well but not just yet ... they seemed to like the nutes as well so all good week so far Soo topping done on 4 plants wasn’t as scary as it sounded haha let’s see how they recover ! Going to combine lst as well now Very good recovery it looks like and the end of week 3 looks promising with the plants happy growing

Day - 112 She has grown a beast with some massive dens nuggets. Should get about 200g - 10% dry bud. Very strong smell and frosty nuggets ❄️👊👍 Great strain and my record on Auto yield 228g. Nice nuggets and good smoke

Increased light intensity to 85% Girls are drinking 1.5 l a day. Decided to go with multi feeding this time instead of crop steering. We will see the difference. At this point they are fed 3 times a day 600-450-450ml. 150ml shots every 10 minutes.

we will see what he offers .....outdoor...

UPDATE - 24th of February 2020 - DRY WEIGHT & LOVE 56g total dry weight, after I gave them a very nice trim. They started curing in glass jars on 19/2/2020 and are currently between 63-68%RH inside. Burping every other hour for couple of minutes. While trimming some dried buds yesterday, I came across a seed, I couldn't believe it, between 😕and 😆, first time experiencing this, interesting, hopefully she didn't lose a lot of her potency and it only happened late. Learning from this: don't change light cycle. I changed from 18 to 21 hours, thought that was a good idea... All this aside, I am sooooooo in LOVE WITH HER 😍I have never grown such a beautiful plant, excuse the photo spam, she deserves a stage, at least for me 😉I can't wait to try her properly cured and get to learn her whole taste spectrum with the low and slow dried buds. Some of them will be processed to oil and edibles. If I find time, I might document some more. Until then, happy growing everyone, peace 🙏 Tried 2 different drying methods: 1. Regular hang dry: For 7 days in small grow tent, darkness at 50% humidity & 20°C/68F - she was almost too dry after 7 days. 2. Low & Slow dry: after washing & hang-drying for 4 hours, she went into the fridge for 7 days in a paper bag, followed by several jar tests until she was at a steady 68% outside; She dried like this in the fridge for 8 days. I didn't trim her too much, since I want to preserve everything for oils. More details: 16. Nov. 2019 - 13. Feb. 2020 - 88 Days - Grown from Seed Smell of Berries; Pink & Yellow tips; Lots of long curly brown hair; Pink tiny leaf tips on top of buds. I’m in love whooooooooooaaaaaaa. Chop on 13. Feb 2020 - 461g Put in vase with PH water for 2 days in Dry Tent darkness at 50% humidity & 20°C/68F 14. Feb. 2020 Darkness Day 1 - 469g 15. Feb. 2020 Darkness Day 2 - 452g Total wet - no trim - 452g Total wet - slight trim - 386g //Regular dry in tent - 50% humidity & 20°C/68F // 281g with trim went in Total dry - no trim - 43g Total dry - trim - 40g //Low and slow dry in fridge // 96g went in Total dry - trim - 16g Check 420magazine for “Low and Slow”-Dry. They are lovely. Happy day to you all

Woche 15 Die gute verliert solangsam an Farbe im Blattwerk. Es geht langsam auf den Herbst zu, wir sind gespannt mit welchen Farben sie uns überraschen will. Tag 102 Bei genauerer Betrachtung erscheinen die Trichomköpfe schon verhältnismäßig dick.

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno A Week 6 | Flowers Take the Lead One of the things I enjoy most about running a phenotype hunt is watching each plant reveal her personality one week at a time. Some explode with vigorous stretch. Others remain compact while quietly building flowers. Cash Express Pheno A seems to have found her own rhythm. Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! For anyone joining this diary for the first time, every plant in this project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed method. Instead of deciding when flowering begins by changing the light cycle, every seed receives 12 hours of light from the day it germinates, allowing each phenotype to determine its own pace. Six weeks in, Cash Express Pheno A has fully embraced flowering. Now the focus is no longer on making flowers... It's about building them. ⸻ 🌼 The Flowering Engine Starts Running This week brought one of my favourite moments of early flower. The fresh white pistils that first appeared last week are now multiplying rapidly, and nearly every branch has begun forming small clusters that will eventually become proper buds. The plant may not be the tallest in the room, nor the largest, but she's proving that size isn't everything. Her energy is clearly being invested where it matters. Flower production. The internodes remain nicely spaced, allowing excellent light penetration throughout the canopy, while every growing tip seems eager to become its own flowering site. It's still early... But the blueprint for harvest is already being drawn. ⸻ 🌿 A Hands-Off Approach One thing that hasn't changed this week is my philosophy. Apart from a little gentle leaf tucking, I've deliberately avoided unnecessary intervention. No heavy defoliation. No aggressive pruning. No major training. Early flowering is one of the busiest periods in a plant's life. She's stretching, producing flowers, expanding her root system and adjusting her hormonal balance all at once. Whenever possible, I prefer letting her focus on that work instead of recovering from mine. Sometimes the best thing a grower can do... ...is simply stay out of the way. ⸻ 💧 AutoPot Continues To Deliver The AutoPot system continues doing exactly what it was designed to do. With the AquaValve automatically supplying fresh nutrient solution whenever the tray empties, the plant has complete control over when she drinks. There's no guessing. No fixed watering schedule. Just healthy roots deciding when they need food and water. Week after week, she continues responding beautifully to this consistency, maintaining steady growth while allowing me to focus on observation instead of constant irrigation. Sometimes the smartest systems are also the simplest. ⸻ 🍽️ Feeding This week's reservoir remained straightforward and stable, consisting of: • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L The slight increase in nutrition made last week appears to have done exactly what I hoped. A few of the oldest fan leaves continue fading as the plant naturally reallocates nutrients toward new growth, but the process remains slow, controlled and completely expected. The upper canopy looks healthy, vibrant and full of life. Sometimes older leaves simply finish their job. And that's perfectly okay. Solution parameters remained stable at approximately EC 1.78 mS/cm with a pH of 6.0, providing a comfortable balance for continued flower development. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Environmental conditions remained very consistent throughout the week. • Day temperature averaged 29°C • Night temperature remained around 25°C • Solution temperature stayed close to 22°C • Root zone averaged approximately 21°C • Relative humidity remained near 60% • Atmospheric CO₂ averaged roughly 639 ppm With flowers now beginning to establish themselves across the canopy, maintaining stable conditions becomes increasingly important. Healthy roots, consistent nutrition and a predictable environment allow the plant to dedicate her energy where it matters most—building flowers rather than reacting to stress. Everything continues moving exactly as planned. ⸻ 📸 Behind This Week's Photos This week's photographs capture a very enjoyable stage of the grow. The close-up shots highlight clusters of bright white pistils appearing at nearly every flowering site, while the full-plant portraits reveal a beautifully balanced structure with evenly spaced branches reaching toward the light. One detail that also stands out is the gradual fading of a few lower fan leaves. I intentionally include these moments because real grows aren't about chasing perfection. They're about understanding what the plant is telling us. In this case, she's simply shifting resources toward the next stage of her journey. And honestly... She looks fantastic doing it. ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should bring one of the most exciting transitions yet. The stretch will begin slowing down, while the flowers themselves should start stacking more aggressively along each branch. I'll continue keeping my hands mostly off the plant, limiting myself to occasional leaf tucking whenever a large fan leaf shades an important flowering site. The goal remains simple. Provide the best possible environment... ...and let the genetics do what they were designed to do. If she continues on this path, the coming weeks should become very exciting. ⸻ 💚 Thank You Thank you to everyone following this journey and growing alongside me. Whether you're here to learn something new, compare techniques, ask questions, or simply enjoy watching these beautiful plants develop, I'm genuinely grateful to have you here. A special thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can document, learn and inspire one another. 🌱 Zamnesia for the Cash Express genetics that continue to reveal their unique character with every passing week. 🌿 Plagron for providing the nutrition that supports every stage of this grow. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the consistent lighting that powers this entire project. 💧 AutoPot for making irrigation beautifully simple while allowing the plants themselves to decide when they want to drink. And finally... Thank you to every grower who stops by these diaries. Every comment, every question, every bit of encouragement—and even every constructive criticism—helps make this project more valuable for the entire growing community. Growers Love, and I'll see you next week as Cash Express Pheno A leaves early flower behind and begins the exciting journey of turning these fresh white pistils into the resin-covered flowers we've all been waiting for. 🌱🚂💚

Day 57-63 Week 9 Halfway through last week, I noticed a issue with a wilting, deep water culture bucket. I realized there was a possibility I created an imbalanced solution for my plant that shuts them out, even though it was in the correct p.H range I probably encouraged mold or stagnant root growth. They are all picking up.Don't look stressed.They look happy and pointing towards the light.

Starting to worry about too much foliage around the bud areas and the lower half of the plant.

Coming into the home stretch here. I've been flushing for a week, going to give her one more good watering then plan on harvesting this weekend. I still don't see any amber trichomes, but I don't want the dying leaves to cause any bud rot, so amber or not she's coming down this weekend. The smell is super STRONG!!!👍

It's been 4 days since I've watered them and there you have it #BOOM I can say at this point I'm excited on what's to come when I harvest this Gotti OG and Dtpg OG. This was a indoor veg and outdoor flower, these been outside since July 26 and has adapted to the outside like it's there natural habitat lol. There has not been any deficiency in there grow nor there leaves, I've been patient with a pattern water/feed scheduling every other day.

🌱 Week 3 – Gorilla Cookies Auto Pheno Hunt Another week down and the differences between the phenos are becoming more obvious every day 👀🔥 The environment stayed very stable this week with temperatures, humidity, and VPD remaining consistent. Because all plants are growing under the exact same conditions, it’s really interesting to see how differently each phenotype develops genetically. 📈 Current observations: Several phenos are already reaching close to 30 cm in height Meanwhile, some smaller phenos — especially Pheno #6 — are still around 13 cm Leaf structure and overall plant shape continue to vary a lot between phenos Growth vigor is clearly different from plant to plant now 💧 Feeding & maintenance: This week the plants received their first proper feeding with around 4 liters of nutrient water. Some phenos seem to react more sensitively to the nutrients, as a few plants are starting to show slight brown leaf tips, so I’ll keep a close eye on them over the next days 👀 I also removed more large fan leaves to improve light penetration and allow the lower branches to develop more evenly. 📊 Current environment: Temperature stable around 26°C Humidity staying between 63–65% VPD maintained around 1.3 kPa Light intensity remaining at 35% Now I’m really curious to see when the first flowering signs will appear 🌸🔥 💬 Which pheno would you pick so far?

Okay so I'm trying something new, since I've gone away from a switch to water for the last week flush I harvested the tops and best smalls and packed the cannatrol full. I'm giving the under growth a bit more time to rippen before I harvest that for the the freezer. If this turns out to be a bad idea I'll not do it again in the future. The last long video is what's left in the tent right now. Let me know if any of you have experience doing this. Updated with a bunch of pictured of dried and cured. Ended up with 186g of beautiful flower. 72g of untrimmed smalls I'll make into RSO, I have a lot of back and nerve pain and RSO hands down the only thing that brings me actual relive, I'm late to the party on this one but I set a side part of the grow for it now. I let the under canopy and shorter tops go another 10 days feed at half strength and I'm glad I did, it ripened up nicely and definitely got a lot of color. I forgot to get pictures of that harvest but I will when I pull it from the freezer to wash. My test jar of this washed at 4+% (the last picture). Last update will be results of that wash. Last update on this one, I added a couple hash/rosin pics at the end. She washed from plant to rosin at 4.03% the terps are musky skunk, sweet pastries, and fresh Linen. I'd definitely grow this one again.

Some really nice cherry here rosing runs are great on this strain good returns and the rosin has a slight wax texture to it glad i had chance to grow this will be deffinatly growing again

Not much to report really, everything is in order and on track✅ The tallest plant has grown 16cm end of week 2 so 1 last week of potential stretch at that rate or hopefully less and it should all remain manageable 🤞 Facing some heat issues but it doesn't seem to be stressing my ladies they are loving life right now 🌞 Its been 25celcius here last few days and that translated to 28celcius in the tent🌡️ Gonna steal a few leaves here and there this week but nothing major, I'm happy enough with the canopy and its bud-sites 👌 Buds are developing nicely, hopefully I'll still get some dense nugs even though they are only wearing 6L shoes 👠 In the end though my main goal is clean and tasty smoke and ive been getting some nice fruity smells from the stem rub, especially the Zorro x Zkittlez #1 I'm getting a lot of lemon and lime from her 🍋🍇⛽ As for clean that's on me, in the great debate of flushing I'm all for it. I get that true organics is a different story but in coco which is what I'm using I notice the difference 🥥 I use bottled nutes which aim to be as close to organic as you can get in a bottle, Cellmax Bio always give me nice flavour and I'm just testing Buddha's Tree Organicus now alongside Cellmax Additives but I still always flush 🌊 Well that's all folks 🐰 Thanks for tuning in🙏 One Love💚 Fire Farmer🔥👨‍🌾

She’s starting to stretch and flower nicely. I removed a few leaves for better light penetration. On day 29 another small defoliation day 34
