FORBIDDEN 🚫 RUNTZ by FASTBUDS WEEK #11 Overall Week #10 Veg This week she still in veg She's really a hardy plant with many vertical side branches that make really bushy although she is getting taller. Stay Growing!!! FASTBUDS FORBIDDEN 🚫 RUNTZ

Hello. This is the beginning of flowering. I've got a 10'x10' tent in the greenhouse going for another diary, and I'll put this plant into it to force it into flowering. The plant has reached the top rung of the tomato cage, so, that's when I usually force flowering. That's what I like... I took some clones from this plant, and it didn't have many side branches to chose from... It had some but not alot. I put my clones in a opaque ice cream bucket. With a thin plastic moveable lid. And a tsp of cinnamon mixed into the soil. A couple of inches on soil into the bottom and press the peat pellets about 1/3 into the unpacked soil. Cannabis like 90% to 95% rh for the first week and those domed plastic lids for the black trays let out too much rh out and the plants/clones wilts. Leave the light on for the first week too. Plants need to store their energy in their roots to sleep. So, with no roots, leave the light on. The second week you can give 80% to 85% rh, move the lid back a bit, and 6 hours of dark. Spray with 1/4 strength nutrient and use RO water for all your soaking and spraying. RO water is low in rot root fungus, so you have a better chance of succus. The plant is doing well and growing good. OK. Be Cool. Chuck.

This week was half sunny and half cloudy. I increased a bit the Bio-Bloom and the plant looks nice.

Bounced back from the repot and defoliation (to get the light penetrating the lower flower sites). Started giving sugar royal ready to flick to flower. Really happy with the internodal spacing on this strain. Hoping for a decent yield. Will be flipped to 12 hours this week. Excited about the next 10 weeks! 30/11/23 UPDATE Added 2ft tube heater to try and bring the temps up abit. Tied down the girls, training should've started earlier but ive struggled for time. Last day of Veg - tomorrow will be 12/12 Gave a good feed including Power Bud and brought pH up to 6.4 (tell tale signs of deficiency due to possible low pH at the roots)

The cultivation of this specimen was good, better than I expected, without a doubt pure instinto It will be back in our tent

fifth veg week, the ladies were doing well, i don't know why but i wanted to try what happens if i take off all the leaves and leave only tops... but trust the process xD

🍬 Candy Rain Auto by Zamnesia | Week 5 (Late Vegetative Growth / Pre-Flower) 🍬 The Patient One – Growing at Her Own Pace Every grow has a story, and not every story begins perfectly. Candy Rain is the only survivor from this folder. Losing her sister early in the project was entirely on me, and that's simply part of growing. Every mistake becomes another lesson, and rather than focusing on what was lost, this diary celebrates the plant that kept pushing forward. Despite her delayed start, she's proving that healthy genetics and a stable environment can overcome a rough beginning remarkably quickly. While she's developing a little more slowly than the rest of the room, each passing week brings noticeable progress, and she's steadily writing her own success story. This project continues documenting how autoflowers perform under a true 12/12 From Seed schedule from germination, challenging the common belief that this lighting regime prevents vigorous development. Supported by the complete Plagron feeding program, grown under the Future of Grow Black Series LED, and thriving inside the Zamnesia-sponsored 8×8 Adventure, Candy Rain is becoming another reminder that every plant deserves the opportunity to shine in her own time. And this week... She's beginning a brand-new chapter. 🌱 Week 5 – No Rush, Just Progress Although I'm still considering this her final week of vegetative growth for reporting purposes, the plant is clearly standing at the doorstep of flowering. Fresh white pistils are appearing across the upper growth, signaling that the transition is now underway. Unlike some of her neighbors that stretched almost overnight, Candy Rain is making the change more gradually, continuing to strengthen her structure before committing all of her energy to flower production. Standing around 69 cm tall, she's currently one of the smaller ladies in the room, but there's nothing weak about her. Her main stem has thickened beautifully, the branch spacing remains clean and open, and every new node seems ready to become a future flowering site. She simply isn't in a hurry. Sometimes the plants that take their time during vegetative growth surprise us once flowering truly begins, and I'm excited to discover whether Candy Rain has one of those stories waiting to unfold. 🌿 Training & Plant Development Training has remained simple and stress-free throughout the grow. Low Stress Training helped open the canopy early, while regular leaf repositioning continues allowing light to reach developing branches without removing healthy foliage. A few of the older leaves still carry small scars from the early stages of the grow. Those marks are simply reminders that the beginning wasn't perfect. The important part is what the plant is telling me today. Every piece of fresh growth is emerging healthy, vibrant, and beautifully green. The stems continue strengthening, the canopy remains balanced, and new flowering sites appear a little larger with every passing day. Older leaves tell yesterday's story. New growth tells tomorrow's. 💧 Nutrition & Irrigation This week I made one intentional change. Even though I'm still closing her vegetative chapter, Candy Rain has now joined the same feeding schedule as every other flowering plant inside the room. Current feeding: • Terra Grow — 1.9 ml/L • Terra Bloom — 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • Power Roots — 1 ml/L • Power Buds — 1 ml/L Rather than keeping her on a reduced vegetative program, I decided to support the transition she's already showing naturally. With an EC around 1.78 and pH maintained at 6.0, she's accepted the new feeding schedule without showing any signs of stress. The newest growth remains healthy, the foliage stays richly green, and the plant appears completely comfortable with the nutritional change. Now she's eating exactly like the rest of the room. We'll see over the coming week whether that extra support helps her settle fully into flowering. 🌡️ Environment The environment continues providing stable conditions throughout the flowering room: Day temperature: 29°C Night temperature: 25°C Relative humidity: 60% Solution temperature: 21°C Root zone temperature: 21°C CO₂: approximately 639 ppm Even during the warmer summer days, the healthy root zone, consistent irrigation, and excellent airflow continue allowing every plant to develop comfortably. The ecosystem remains balanced, and Candy Rain seems perfectly happy within it. 👀 Looking Ahead Next week should officially mark the beginning of flowering. I'm expecting the stretch to become much more noticeable as hormones shift fully toward bloom, and it'll be fascinating to see whether she begins closing the gap between herself and the rest of the room. Right now she may be the slowest plant in the tent, but she's also showing steady, healthy development every single week. Sometimes patience is rewarded with something truly special. For now, I'm simply letting her tell her own story. 🙏 Final Thoughts Not every plant follows the same schedule. One of the most enjoyable parts of growing is learning to work with each individual plant instead of expecting every seed to perform exactly the same way. Candy Rain has reminded me of that every week. She isn't racing anyone. She isn't trying to be the biggest. She's simply growing at her own pace, building a healthy structure, and preparing for the next stage when she's ready. Whether she finishes alongside the rest of the room or a little later, she has already earned her place in this project by showing that patience can be every bit as beautiful as speed. A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making this incredible project possible, Plagron for providing consistently reliable nutrition, Future of Grow for delivering outstanding lighting, and to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries. Your support, comments, and shared passion for growing make documenting every week an absolute pleasure. Until next week… Growers love and happy growing! 🌱💚

Wochenkommentar bei Papayton. :)

Smell is increasingly fragrant. - 24 Sept changed nutrient solution - 24 Sept updated feeding schedule - Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 - Adjusting PH to 6.1 daily using GH up/down - Nutrient solution EC 2.2 at 72 degrees F - Light power at 75%, DLI 45 canopy coverage at 18hrs - Using PYPABL, Air Pump, 400GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

Change of lights as of middle of last week and a Change of schedule to fit with mine, 18-6 off at 13:00 back on 19:00.
