Of the three, SK is the one that receives the least direct light, but nevertheless she's starting to grow faster. Excellent branching but sensible to the cold. Using this adjustable curved trace I stopped the apical dominance obtaining a thick plant with many well-formed branches. No need 4 feed. Happy and frosty growin for all of you 🤞

These plants were started their flush 3 days ago, continuing to flush today & I will be chopping them down in a few days depending to the trichomes. a couple of these plants' leading bud site were bent over to bring down the lighting closer to the surrounding bud sites. Hoping for a nice size harvest for my first grow!

Day 78. Girls are my pride and joy ! Everything going well, even supercroped branches are recovered well and hopefully i will push that grow to the end without any hiccups ;))) One Kalini Asia shows some potency for funky colours ! Maybe will defoliate at the end of this week or at the beginning of next one ... Hope everything will go smooth .. Day 82. Happy 420 !!!! And for me it really HAPPY !!! Just check todays video .... My best run, no doubts !!! Happy Growing !

What can I say about this plant, it spent most of the day in the shade, if it had the same conditions as dos si dos, it would eat it for breakfast in terms of yield... 450 g of dry matter and some popcorn... I am very satisfied with but the plant didn't get nearly as much sun as it needs...it didn't fill up, but it wasn't empty either, the heads are nice and fleshy...when I picked it, it smelled like lemon or KeyLime as Barney says...but no on citrus, but really lemon combined with some heavy stench, I can't wait for this miracle to work for some time in the jar... Next year we will see it in its full glory, so let's try to get a one kilo and a half dry from it alone, that's a bit of a challenge for me...but with this kind of genetics and this kind of variety, I don't think it will be a problem in 100-150 liters of soil for this kind of monster... this year my plants were in 40 to 50 liters of soil and almost each of them produced from 450 to almost a kilogram of dry grass

Busy week getting the new setup going. GG is going really good has taken to training well. Expecting a bit of stretching off her in flowering. Can notice the sativa traits in her with more distance between nodes, and her slimmer sativa type leaves . Have noticed how sticky she's starting to get when training her, left with sticky resin coated fingers😋 she's a nice plant

Over the last week I’ve continued with defoliation process and I removed downer leaves that were not developing properly. On day 78 I added support for aide branches on B and C. I started flush of plant C on day 80, so we’ll see how she looks. I keep feeding other plants but I will be starting flush soon. 😎

Taken On Day 63, miscalculated last week they were started 12/18/17. Fat buds on the two big ones and real sticky, can't make out the smell yet but it's pretty strong at this point. Added some tnbnaturals co2 today idk how well it works but I figured I would try it out. Mainline one is a week or so behind in terms of maturity but is getting fed whatever is in the res it's hooked up to. Flushed all 3 due to salt build up early in the week which is why the tips are burnt and some calmag deficiency and yellowing. 1-2 more weeks I think.

The ladies grew to their 6th node and it was time to top. They both seemed to respond well to the topping, and they were healthy before the cut. However, Dancehall seemed to express an nutrient issue two days after the top. After some research I determined it was likely Potassium. I asked the Reddit Microgrowery what they thought. One person chimed in that it was a bad Potassium deficiency, likely amplified by being drastically underwatered. Since that comment I have drastically increased my watering and within 2 days it was clear they were correct and the deficiency is not showing on the new leaves.

12.01. F10 Everything is running according to plan and the ladies are growing strong and evenly. The plants are currently developing a lot of small side shoots, which slightly reduces internal airflow. As a result, minor traces of powdery mildew are still present – not completely gone, but clearly under control. Any affected leaves are removed immediately when spotted. In addition, the plants are treated once a week with Purolyt, which has proven to be quite effective so far. Overall, the mildew situation remains manageable and at a low level. The drip Blumat irrigation system is working reliably and takes care of watering automatically. A humidifier is not needed, as relative humidity stays consistently around 55–60 %, which is more than sufficient at this stage. The Biotabs nutrients continue to perform exceptionally well, with very active soil life supporting healthy and vigorous plant growth. All in all, this run is shaping up very nicely.

🍮 Chem Brûlée – Pheno B Week 9 | She May Not Be the Greenest… But She's Bulking Beautifully Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And this week, Chem Brûlée Pheno B has a slightly different story to tell. She's not the greenest girl in the room. She's not carrying that deep, lush green that I absolutely love seeing on a flowering plant. But... she's still growing. She's still building. She's still producing beautiful flowers. And she's still showing us exactly why growing multiple phenotypes together is so fascinating. Sometimes a plant doesn't give you the picture you expected. Sometimes she gives you a question. And the best thing we can do is listen. 🌿 A Quick Look Back Chem Brûlée Pheno B has always been one of the more distinctive expressions of this genetic line. Compared with her sister, Pheno A, she's taller, more elongated and more open. She has developed a very different architecture, with flowering sites distributed along those longer branches rather than creating the more compact structure we've seen from Pheno A. Last week, she received some selective defoliation to open the canopy and give the developing flowers a little more room. And I'm happy to say: she handled it well. There was no dramatic reaction. No major setback. She simply continued doing what she does. Growing. Flowering. And now... bulking. 🌸 🍃 Not the Greenest Girl in the Room Let's talk about the obvious thing first. Her foliage isn't showing the deep, rich green that I personally like to see. It's a little lighter. And when you're looking at twelve different genetics growing under essentially the same conditions, those differences become very easy to notice. Especially when one plant is standing right beside another phenotype that may be carrying a completely different shade of green. But here's the important part: I'm not going to invent a problem just because I don't love the colour. She's still growing. She's still producing flowers. She's still developing. She's still responding to the environment. And that's why we're observing rather than immediately changing everything around her. Could this phenotype simply have a different nutritional demand? Absolutely. Could genetics be contributing to the way she presents? Of course. Could other environmental factors play a role? Potentially. But the whole-plant picture matters much more than one characteristic. And right now, her whole-plant picture says: "I'm still working." So we're listening. Twelve Genetics Don't Get Twelve Different Worlds This is one of the things I really want to emphasize in this project. We're running a lot of plants. Twelve different genetic stories. More than twenty plants in total. And they're sharing the same room, the same general environmental conditions, the same irrigation philosophy and the same reservoir. That means we can't look at every single plant and say: "Okay, you want something different? Let's completely redesign the grow just for you." That's not the experiment. The whole point is consistency. We provide the same foundation... and then we watch how the genetics respond. Some plants are more demanding. Some are more relaxed. Some stay dark green. Some are naturally lighter. Some stretch. Some stay compact. Some drink more. Some drink less. And some... like Chem Brûlée Pheno B... simply keep telling us: "I'm going to do this my way." 😂 And honestly? That's exactly what I want to see. 🌸 But Look at Those Flowers... Because while the foliage may not be giving me the lush green I'm looking for... the flowers are giving me plenty to smile about. She's bulking. The developing flowers are becoming increasingly substantial, and those long branches are now carrying some beautiful flower structures. The pistils remain prominent, while the buds are gaining volume and definition. This is one of those stages where you can really see the plant transitioning from: "I'm flowering." to: "I'm building flowers." And that difference is huge. We're no longer just watching flowering sites appear. We're watching them develop. We're watching them gain substance. We're watching the plant put her energy behind the flowers that she's already created. And Pheno B is doing exactly that. ❄️ The Frost Is Coming Along The resin development is also becoming increasingly noticeable. When you get close with the camera, the flowers start revealing another layer of the story. The sugar leaves are becoming increasingly frosty, and the developing flowers are starting to take on that beautiful sparkling appearance that makes macro photography so addictive. From a distance, you see: a flowering plant. From close up, you see: an entire little universe. That's something I never get tired of. And Chem Brûlée Pheno B is giving us some beautiful subjects to photograph this week. ✂️ How Did She Handle the Defoliation? Pretty well. And that's worth documenting. Last week, we gave her a selective cleanup. Nothing extreme. We removed foliage where it made sense, particularly where leaves were contributing to unnecessary shading or crowding. The objective wasn't to strip her. It was simply to open the architecture she'd already created. And now, looking at her this week, I like the result. The structure is easier to see. The flowers are easier to appreciate. And she's continued developing without missing a beat. That's a good reminder that intervention should always have a reason behind it. We're not defoliating because: "It's Tuesday and apparently Tuesday is defoliation day." 😂 We're doing it when the plant and the canopy give us a reason. 🌿 Her Architecture Is Doing the Work One of the things I really like about Pheno B is her naturally open structure. She's around 130 cm, making her taller than her Chem Brûlée sister, but she's not just tall for the sake of being tall. She's created a very different architecture. Longer branches. More vertical growth. Flowering sites distributed through that structure. And now, as those flowers bulk up, you can really start appreciating what she built earlier in the run. The plant has already made her decisions. Now she's investing in them. And that's why I'm not interested in forcing her to look like Pheno A. They're sisters. They're not twins. 👃 The Story Is Still Developing The aromatic profile is also something I'm continuing to watch. At this stage, I don't want to pretend that the final terpene expression has arrived. We're still watching the flowers mature. But that's part of the fun. With phenotypes growing beside each other under the same conditions, these subtle differences can become incredibly interesting as flowering progresses. The structure is different. The foliage expression is different. The flowering architecture is different. And eventually, the aroma may give us another piece of the puzzle. So for now... I'm simply taking notes. Watching. Photographing. And waiting. ⚗️ Feeding – Consistency Is Part of the Experiment The feeding strategy remains consistent across the room. We're continuing with: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L With Lemon Kick / pH Plus used as required. The current readings are approximately: ⚗️ pH – 6.0 ⚡ EC – 2.0 mS/cm And this is where the philosophy of the 8×8 Adventure really matters. Pheno B may be one of the girls that appears to demand more. But we're not going to create a completely separate feeding world for her while running a shared system with the rest of the room. Instead, we're watching how she adapts. We're looking at the plant. We're looking at the flowers. We're looking at the new growth. And we're looking at the progression over time. Because one photograph tells you what the plant looks like today. A diary tells you how she got there. 🌡️ The Environment The room continues running with remarkably consistent conditions: 🌡️ Day temperature – 29°C 🌙 Night temperature – 25°C 💧 Relative humidity – 60% 🌱 Substrate temperature – 26°C 💦 Solution temperature – 25°C ⚗️ pH – approximately 6.0 ⚡ EC – approximately 2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂ – 639 ppm 💡 Light schedule – 12/12 ? Pot size – 15 L 💧 Watering – approximately 1.3 L/plant/24h And once again, this consistency is important. The environment isn't changing dramatically from plant to plant. So when we see differences... the genetics become increasingly interesting. That's the experiment. 💡 Same Light. Different Plant. The lighting setup continues providing strong overhead illumination, with additional light reaching the inner and lower portions of the canopy. And this phenotype's more open structure works nicely with that arrangement. She's got flowers distributed throughout the plant rather than packed into one dense wall. The selective cleanup has also made some of those structures easier to see. And when you look at the photographs... there's a lot happening. She's not finished. She's not even close. But she's definitely building. 📸 Behind the Lens This week was another reminder of why I love photographing this project. When I look at Pheno B with my eyes, the first thing I notice is the lighter foliage. But when I put the camera close to the flowers... that's not what I see anymore. I see structure. I see pistils. I see developing resin. I see flowers getting bigger. I see branches carrying more weight. And I see a phenotype becoming increasingly recognizable. That's one of the reasons I try not to judge a plant from one characteristic. Step back... look at the whole plant. Then get close... and look at the flowers. Sometimes the story changes completely. 🌿 She's Adapting And that's probably my favourite part of this week's update. She's adapting. She's not necessarily giving us the exact expression I would choose. She's not the deepest green. She's one of the more demanding plants in the room. But she's adapting to the environment we've created. And she's continuing to grow. That matters. Because the purpose of this project isn't to prove that every phenotype behaves identically. It's almost the opposite. We're giving them the same stage... and watching how differently they perform on it. Chem Brûlée Pheno B is showing us: "This is how I play the game." And I'm listening. 🔮 Looking Ahead So what am I expecting from her next? More bulking. More flower definition. More resin. And hopefully an increasingly obvious expression of what this phenotype is capable of. I'm also going to continue watching the foliage carefully. Not panicking. Not ignoring it. Just watching. If the plant continues developing flowers beautifully while maintaining functional foliage and healthy growth, that's valuable information. If other signs begin appearing alongside the colour change, then we'll have another conversation. For now... the flowers are telling a very positive story. And I'm going to let her keep writing it. 🍮 Different Isn't Bad This is something I've learned over and over again throughout this adventure. When you grow one plant by itself, you can easily assume that whatever you see is simply the plant. But when you grow twelve genetics together? Suddenly you have references everywhere. One plant is dark green. Another is lighter. One stretches. Another stays compact. One produces enormous leaves. Another produces completely different foliage. One drinks aggressively. Another is more conservative. And then you have Chem Brûlée Pheno B. She's somewhere in there saying: "I'm going to make beautiful flowers while making you think about my foliage." 😂 And honestly... fair enough. That's what phenotype hunting is about. 🌱 She's Not Perfect. She's Interesting. And maybe that's the best way to describe her this week. She's not perfect. Her green isn't the lush colour I personally love. She's demanding. She's different. But she's also beautiful. She's adapting. She's continuing to grow. She's bulking. She's producing flowers. She's building frost. And she's telling us a story that is completely her own. I wouldn't want to erase that. Because if every plant behaved exactly the same... there wouldn't be much of a phenotype hunt, would there? 💚 Let Her Shine So this week, I'm not going to compare Chem Brûlée Pheno B to the greenest girl in the room. I'm not going to compare her to her sister and ask why she isn't built the same. I'm going to look at her. At approximately 130 cm... with her elongated structure... her developing flowers... her increasing frost... her lighter foliage... and her unmistakable personality... she's doing her thing. And she's doing it beautifully. The flowers are getting bigger. The structure is becoming more impressive. The resin is building. And the plant is still moving forward. That's enough for me. Sometimes the most interesting plants aren't the ones that give you exactly what you expected. They're the ones that make you stop... look... and say: "Okay, girl. Show me what you've got." 🍮🔥 🙏 Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚 This project keeps teaching me something new every single week. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a place to document these journeys, compare experiences and learn from one another. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Chem Brûlée genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover how differently these phenotypes can express themselves. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting the room. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for powering this jungle from above. Thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into the lower and inner areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us maintain consistency behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person who stops to look at these plants and wonder what happens next. You're part of the adventure. And this week, Chem Brûlée Pheno B is reminding us of something I think is incredibly important: A plant doesn't have to be perfect to be fascinating. She may not be showing me the lushest green. She may be one of the more demanding girls in the room. But she's adapting. She's growing. She's bulking. She's building beautiful flowers. And she's becoming more and more herself every week. So let's give this girl the spotlight she deserves. Let's let her shine. Let's see where she takes us. Because the story isn't finished yet. Not even close. 🍮🌸❄️ Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week as Chem Brûlée Pheno B continues writing her own chapter in the 8×8 Adventure. 🚂🍮🌿

Que pasa familia, vamos con la cosecha de estas Black Muffin F1 de Sweetseeds. Esta variedad me resultó bastante sencilla de cultivary es bastante resistente, si no la maltratáis crece mucho y bien sana, la flor se ve increíble, tiene una cantidad de resina considerable y unos tonos rojos oscuros muy peculiares, se ven genial. El olor que desprende es bastante frutal con toques cítricos, no pinta nada mal, las flores están prietas. No da mayores problemas, el ciclo no es largo, cuiden con la altura ya que se desmadran un poco. IMPORTANTE destacar: En las fotos comprobaréis que ya no hay botes de cristal con sobres de bóveda, ahora hay Grovebags. Que son una especie de sobres o bolsas que retienen el peso, previene la aparición de moho y mantiene intacto el terpeno, para que el curado sea más óptimo. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨
