🌸 Week 12 From Seed — Week 8 Flower Permanent Marker — Two Phenos, One Epic JourneyWelcome back to the garden, my friends. If you’re just joining the diary now — don’t worry. Here’s a quick recap so you know exactly how we got here: 🌱 Quick Recap From Seed to Now – Two Permanent Marker phenos grew from seed into two completely different personalities: • Pheno #1 — “Aiming for the Moon”: a tower of beauty, stretching past 2 meters, expressive, colorful, loud. • Pheno #2 — “The Compact Queen”: sturdy, dense, bushy, disciplined, with deep greens and beautiful structure. – Both were grown in Aptus organic super soil style, with minimal liquid inputs — just Regulator, Top Booster, and the occasional CalMag. – From week 3 of flower onward, we saw the divergence: stretch vs compactness, height vs density, color vs deep green gloss. – Conditions were challenging (hot summer, fluctuating humidity), but with airflow, careful irrigation, and inner canopy lighting, the garden thrived. – Now we arrive at week 8 flower — the week where everything becomes obvious. The structure, the scent, the resin… this is where Permanent Marker starts telling her story. 🌿 Week 8 Flower — The Week of Truth This is an important week. One of those weeks where the plant stops building and starts finishing. 💥 Bulking Mode Activated Both phenos are packing on weight — visibly, daily. The buds are: – swelling – stacking – becoming denser – pushing calyxes outward – and bathing in trichomes The flower-room smell is now borderline illegal — loud, sticky, sharp, with that signature Permanent Marker funk rising stronger day by day. 🎨 Colors Coming Alive Our tall mama — the one reaching for the moon — is showing magnificent colors: – deep reds – purples – warm fades – cool gradients across sugar leaves This is likely a mix of genetics + low-nutrient organic finish + light intensity + heat swings. A wonderful recipe for anthocyanins to express themselves. ✨ Frost Everywhere Trichomes are exploding on both phenos: – mushroom heads – milky stalks – resin layering onto resin – sugar leaves looking powdered This is the week where terpenoids and flavonoids start reaching their peak volumes — the week where you know harvest is close because the plant smells like she wants to climb into your nose and live there. 🔥 Light Spectrum Love — And the Inner Canopy Glow Let’s give a moment of appreciation to Future of Grow’s Black Series and the ICL inner canopy lighting. These girls are LOVING the spectrum: – deeper penetration – reduced shading – even lower branch development – trichomes forming even in hidden zones – colors enhanced naturally It truly shows what proper spectrum distribution can do — especially late in flower. 🌡️ Conditions — Hot, Humid, and Still Thriving Despite summer conditions trying to sabotage everything: – the plants stayed strong – no PM – no bud rot – no stress signals except the harmless light-tipped albinoing on the top cola of Pheno #1 (beautiful, by the way) This week we maintained: – Temp: high but manageable – Humidity: under control – Airflow: strong and essential – Irrigation: consistent and organic The girls took it all like champions. 🔍 The Final Stretch — What Week 8 Means This is the week where you start to ask the true questions:Are we close? Yes. Very. Is it time to flush? Not on full organic super soil — you simply let the plant finish naturally. One week or two? Depends on trichomes: – Clear → needs time – Milky → soon – Amber → harvest window opens Right now it feels like: 👉 1–2 weeks maximum But she will tell us. We listen. 🏆 Dognabis Cup — The Community Is Alive! People are opening their welcome packs, germinations are popping, and diaries are starting to roll in.

1/29 Week 5 She is just doing so well! Cant wait to see what she does in flower. Dropping CocoTek to 5ml and increasing run off as some white tips are showing 1/30 She now at 14 inches 2/1 Chiana now at 15 inches Major defoliation last night at lights out. Removed perhaps 25-40% or leaf mass on her to allow them to stay in the tent another two weeks. It was time to learn the process anyway, took a compromise path to doing it, some recommended taking more some less.

First week of flush on the way with no where near as much swelling as I hoped, after last weeks question I decided to raise my light another 4 inches to reduce the burning seems to have helped but I'm not quite sure (it was already pretty bad), the EC of my run off varies between 1.4 and 1.8 by the end of the week, next week I am planning to use straight PH'd water however some one has got me questioning my self. But everything is a learning curve and I have learned alot from these ladies and from everyone who has helped and had an input your experiences have helped Next week... HARVEST!! Happy Growing! 👊👍

This week was great the smell is very pungent, I've been giving the CO2 lights are (I believe) adequate over 200 true watts on 2 plants started with purpinator as well as adjusting the ph and dropping the temperature. And the added spectrum. Try to get to the Anthocyanins and adjust my colors

During this first week of bloom, plant stretch less than i expect so maybe they can't fill the Space, but they look very healthy so i'm happy

9/11 Week 22 Looking better seem to have closed the Phos hole in my nuets, in the future pots will be amended with it from the start. 9/13 Weather degrading (heh relative term) plan to harvest Poly on next spat of "good" weather, Zona couple of weeks tops. Poly water only but there is plenty of nuets in that pot. 9/14 No decent sun today at all, high humidity forecast is saying it just gets worse from here (heh like those guys know) but if true I need to harvest poly ahead of it which may mean tomorrow. Decide then see if forecasts change. Next year things will be different damit 9/15 Day 146 of the grow and Poly's last day Weather is entirely the reason for taking her a bit early, wanted to prep her a bit more but thats life in the outdoors. She has a beautiful day for her last, she was never any trouble and grew well, I am glad to have grown her, she is a good girl. Pics and vid to follow, Zona will go as long as we are able as she will hopefully get better weather in a few days after the coming mess departs.

Week 4: Heartbreak and Hope 🍍💔 The sight that greeted me today was devastating. Snails. Everywhere. They'd turned my once vibrant pineapple into a skeleton of its former self. I could barely bring myself to take a single photo, the sight was just too painful. Fueled by anger and determination, I launched Operation Snail Removal. Every half hour, armed with a flashlight and a bucket, I combed the raised bed and surrounding area. By the time darkness fell, I'd collected a horrifying 19 snails from her bed alone. Ugh. The next night, thankfully, was snail-free. I can only hope that the damage is done and my pineapple warrior can rally from this. I believe in her strength, her resilience. She's got to pull through.

Leider sind mir einige Fehler unterlaufen.. Da es mein erster Grow ist habe ich es bissl übertrieben mit LST. Dadurch sind mir einige Triebe abgebrochen. Habe aber dadurch ein bisschen mehr die Haptik und besser Gefühl fürs nächstes mal gewonnen. Mit richtigen Erdhacken ist es nun etwas leichter. Beim entlauben muss ich auch noch ein besser Auge entwickeln.

Knocked a couple of tops over to try to even the canopy. The first few pistils are starting to show, which is exciting. No topdress, just some Stash blend once this week.

Цветение скучная пора, ну оно и к лучшему , походу дела гров получится. без серьезных ошибок) шишки набираю вес . пытался рассмотреть трихомы , получилось не очень , вроде уже мутные . но спешить не будем . удобы убрал вообще , побольше промою водичкой . напомню , все делается без измерений PH. на видео показан состояние грунта , корневая развита , аэрации помогают мелкие существа )

Since i applied almost identical training to all of them, i will name them individually once.the flowers start formig and there is an actual difference haha.. Health is perfect, they enjoying food, water, ecosystem, everything seem to be on spot and i am not worried at all, just waiting for flowers :D I defoliated extremly so all the budsites are exposed to light and there is good airflow, i also lolipoped those branches i am sure wont make it till the end.. Much compliments on remo chemo and spliffs strawberry, i see them as winners here

Todas an alcanzado buena altura entre 35 a 40 cms..muy parejas..sera la última vista de ellas en crecimiento. Mañana se cambiará el fotoperiodo y empezaremos la floración.

🌱: 💧 : 8l, switch to 0,5ml/l Pk 13-14 on day 59 💡 : Dli: 45 mol/m²/d 🤔:

Starting autopot system and root aeration this week. Stay posted for updates. Day 1 You remember that movie "Training Day"? It's sorta like that. With a light trim for the buried leaves on lean. Day 3 continued lst, also some defoliating to encourage growth and light up the nodes. Day 7 did a final pin for the week. #5 and I had a tug of war, We both lost. Start somewhere other than the top when tieing. But otherwise I am real proud of my pinning and hope it's right on the money.

420Fastbuds FBT2301 Week 8 What up grow fam. Weekly update on these two lovely ladies. Flowers are definitely getting bigger. Crazy you can almost see the growth from day to day at this stage of flower. No real signs of any issues so will keep up the same routine as it seems to work really well for them. All in all Happy Growing.
