11/22 Week 14 One has fallen five remain FFT-11-1 is in dry Rate of harvest as much weather driven as anything dont want a lot exposed at once. Planning every 2-3 days FFT-10 is in full bud building mode still so keeping the pedal down on them with a 10/10 finishing feed till we see some closure on those buds. FFT-9 is really showing great color purple so deep almost black water only FFT-11-2 is waiting her turn water only 11/23 pics Harvest FFT-11-2 in the morning 11/24 Yield on FFt-11-1 : 189 grams dry FFt-11-2 in dry (1100 grams wet) 11/25 Unless the weather turns on us will harvest both FFt-9s tomorrow FFt-11-2 still in dry be finished tomorrow 11/27 The FFT-10 stands alone , showing signs of ending, putting them on a finishing feed and reduce as the buds close 11/28 Welp those signs of ending backed off and she making buds heavy again. Go girls go not reducing feed till this goes as far as it will zero pressure to harvest. Lights on pics Built a better jute cage for FFT-10-2 she is very wide and there was a danger of branches breaking from weight of buds. Increased Bloom and Peak PK hitting them a bit harder as dont want noticeable def beginning until I want them as much as practical. Buds still spikey and hairs strong though seem a few less its not much. Seems every time we switch up our PK for them it triggers another round of production. See what what when they begin to slow again. This is fun dont get to do this... ever... no space pressure finally although thats due to problems in germ more than my design going forward I think. Plants are at max par being under their individual ts-2000s so I killed the side lights not doing a lot anyway with the tent near empty 11/30 At lights on the buds seem to be slowing, reducing the Bloom nuets and PK after a single hard hit to see if they pick up

Welcome to week 6 of my White Truffle grow! First things first: Still no signs of pre flower yet 😄 She’s taken the training and the continuous defoliation like a champ. She got a massive stem and also the 4 main branches are thickening up that I could get some problems later this week of holding the branches under the trellis. Hopefully some signs of pre flowering will show up this week or I have to move the trellis a little bit upwards. Update: the lady seems to be a photoperiod and none autoflower, as i asked the breeder recently. So she is going to flower by switching to 12/12 from the mid of week 6. Hopefully she has not a huge stretch, because of the limited space in the Vgrow. The plant itself looks healthy and vital. Looking forward to this week. ✌️

1/19 1am MONDAY...TOO STONED TO TYPE..WHAT THE HELL IS THIS THEN..HEY SHUT UP....WAIT...IS THAT ME?😂 1/19 5 AM.🚨 I GOT THE HOLY TRIANGLE OF WEED THE WHOLE FUUCK'N TRAILER PARK IS HERE!!!!! Finally got black tea Tangie in the ground so Julian bubbles and Ricky are all growing with Montel and ice t. 1/20 1:20PM VEGING PERFECT AT 30 WATTS!!! 1/21 10:11 AM. The whole fucking park is here. Julian sprouted!!! Bubbles and Ricky are doing great. I’m gonna top them and then I’m gonna start them over from clones so they grow roughly the same time as Julian and I’ll keep the Ricky and the bubbles others as mother plants and I’ll just keep them going. 1/21 10:15 AM vegging 12 inches 30 W Samsung LED Mars Hydro light perfect 121 1:10 PM I moved black tea Tangie into the germination station. The 2 gallon fits in here just fine. This will be fine for germination.. She’s sprouted only after about 40 hours so she’s really strong. 1/21, 2:54 PM. I made a my own Star Wars movie. Special effects are incredible. It’s very removing made my own Obi-Wan.A CalGonJim Production 🎥🍿 1/21 11:56PM Stoned Genie bong arrived today. my 2nd from them.

Welcome to my Swiss Dream Rose CBD Auto Diary sponsored by kannabia seed company. Also sponsored by Bella from Spider-Farmer with their new upgraded SE5000. Seedling Days 0-6 Veg Day 1/D7 Days 0-7 Growing very strong. Really fast turn around. In veg on the 7th day. Is amazing. 30% in growth rate speed. Healthy & Happy. Holding her own in very hot conditions. RH is 60%. As my tent temp is between 31-35c (thankfully stomatas are still open. As co2 intake hasn't slowed. And, they're pushing through the heat. Good week. Light is great. It's rapid seedling growth is very impressive with the right co2 in a tent that just kisses the lights edges. Perfect umol 1125-1437. This lady is about 80cm away as my light is 100% for the 2 late flowering plants and then it'll be lowered to 70% in the next wk. And lower the distance then. No stretch, no mutos. Good healthy girl thus far. Good week. Diet Full plagron natural line. Shes in her 11L pot with all the extras from their line. And a few more for flowering. Their new Power Bud. And the norm + PK booster. Everything needed will be plagron. Except calmag (I like to control that separately either with cal powder or Epsom salt. Adding both when one is needed. Well, its not needed. Generally I rarely have cal issues. Co2 Jargin. (Not an advised read if you've no interest in co2) Co2 levels are kept within this level. But, I've set on delayed timing. As I need to make sure my plants are eating. So instead of a constant set co2 level. They're eating the level drops as low as 750min 800 (80% when it is dropped before its raised) and this way. I can tell my plants are eating. Its a method of co2 growing. Feed/eat/eat/feed. Its served me well. Saves on co2. But self application can be a bitch so 80% of the times its on fuzzy logic and its resets itself (this hmmmm. Hard to know when your plant is eating. I'll have to get a co2 monitor i can check on my phone. That way, I'll know how often co2 is injected. There's no count. You could of of units used. But, the math on a 10L tank per squirt, (im not that smart) nor would I even attempt it. Yes a co2 calculator can be used. But, that does not account of areas of the tent were the co2 rests on a low level. Co2 intake of the plants/how much they eat. There is a limit I've noticed. In late flowering plants after 10hrs of high co2 use. The intake drops of by about 90%. With autos, they'll eat forever. But id 8 fems and after 10hrs of solid co2 intake 200 ppm every 10m was going down and then late into the cycle they'd eat 200ppm in an hr. So, I'm learning. To know when my plants are eating and not, is just a gift alone. Not having to wait days, to notice an issue. But, it is very demanding. Nutrient 2x-3x the norm and 1-1.5L for fully grown plants twice a day so 2-3L , of which one needs to be nutrients every other day. Lights SE5000 seed-harvest. And this pheno has loved every umol from this beauty. So thankful to Bella for this chance to run a high powered light that has great capability for co2 (you don't need 1000w lights) for 3x3. This spectrum is proven itself everyday the plants co2 intake overall improved by 1/3rd possibly more. (Past test plants were under light as co2 rec) big improvement just finishing off my other plants. The fade alone is stunning. And the push these girls are doing from 50-30% faster across the board speaks for itself. Veggin plants in its 1st week. Thanks so much Spider-Farmer "Bella". & to Kannabia for their continued co-operation. Much appreciation to all who viewed and stopped by. Wouldnt be doing this otherwise. The support is great. And if not given in return ASAP I'll get to it. I'm a lazy pos 🤣. So look forward to getting a chance to see what you got cooking this Summer. Its gonna be a Swiss one for sure.

FERMAKOR BARREL MIX – BASE IN USE (Testing on the Fantasy Feast girl we pulled out of another diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/274722-grow-journal-by-yan402 ) (FERMAKOR BASE SYSTEM KOH VERSION diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/278391-grow-journal-by-yan402) (Urea & Micros on the way — first week running without them) 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 30 L Barrel – Current Working Mix 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 Step 1 – Calcium Nitrate (Part A) 7 L warm water (~35–40 °C) → added 45 g Calcinit, stirred until fully clear.

Hi Growmies, She did not take well to the ec of 2.0 that I intended to feed her, so I changed the reservoir again midweek and went down to 1.6, after feeding her canna flush with RO water for 24 hours. She seems very forgiving, as she didn’t even get stunted by the lockout. 4 of the 8 shoots went through scrog and were super cropped underneath the screen. The others should catch up any day now and will be trained in a similar fashion. Rootball looks also amazing. I will experiment with continuously feeding her orca every 3 days, as it feels like the mycorrhizal inoculants seem to go down after 3 days and root growth slows down. Let’s see if it’ll work. Here is the code that’ll give you 20% in Zamnesia‘s online store, just input ZAMMIGD2023 at checkout. Thanks for stepping by and until next week!

🌿 Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 8 (Flower Week 5) 🌿 Finding Her Own Spice There are always a few plants in a room that seem determined to compete for the crown. The tallest. The widest. The biggest. And then there are plants like Frosted Guava. She doesn't need to be the biggest plant in the room to make an impression. She has simply found her own way of doing things. Week after week, Frosted Guava Pheno A has continued developing with beautiful consistency. Her foliage remains lush and deeply green, her structure is filling out beautifully, and her flowers are becoming increasingly dense and noticeably frosty. The plant is now entering her fifth week of flowering, and the difference is becoming impossible to miss. She's eating photons. She's converting them into flowers. And slowly but surely, she's filling out everywhere. This girl is finding her own spice. And I really like it. 🌸 Week 5 Flower – The Flowers Are Coming Into Their Own At approximately 120 cm, Frosted Guava may not be the tallest plant in the 8×8 Adventure. But height isn't everything. What matters now is what she's doing with the structure she built. And she's doing a beautiful job. The stretch has largely settled, and the energy of the plant is increasingly directed toward developing the flowers. The individual bud sites are becoming much more substantial, with the flowers beginning to stack and fill along the branches. The most beautiful part right now is the contrast. Those deep green leaves surrounding flowers covered in bright white pistils create an almost electric appearance. The white hairs seem to be reaching in every direction, forming those beautiful little crowns around each developing flower. And beneath them, the flowers are beginning to gain real volume. They're no longer simply there. They're building. 🍃 Deep Green, Lush & Full of Life One of the first things that catches my eye when looking at Frosted Guava this week is the foliage. That beautiful, deep green colour is still everywhere. The leaves look healthy, strong, and full of life, creating a lush backdrop for the developing flowers. There is something particularly satisfying about seeing this combination at this stage of flowering: deep green foliage + bright white pistils + increasing frost. The plant looks like she's completely comfortable in her environment. She's not trying to be something she's not. She's simply growing. And that's becoming her personality. ❄️ The Frost Is Arriving The name Frosted Guava is starting to make more and more sense. Resin development is becoming increasingly visible across the flowers, and the developing frost is beginning to give the buds that beautiful sparkling appearance we've been waiting for. We're still far from the finished product, of course. But this is the stage where things start becoming really exciting. Every week, the flowers gain a little more structure. A little more volume. A little more frost. And a little more personality. The white pistils are still beautifully prominent, standing proudly away from the flowers and giving every bud site that classic flowering appearance. They're almost like little flags announcing: "We're not finished yet." And I certainly hope they're not. There's still plenty of work for these flowers to do. ☀️ Eating Photons This is one of my favourite parts of watching a plant develop. We can't actually see photosynthesis happening. But we can see the results. Light enters the canopy. Leaves capture those photons. And the plant turns that energy into growth, structure, flowers, and eventually the beautiful resin-covered buds we're watching develop week by week. Frosted Guava is doing exactly that right now. She's standing underneath the Future of Grow Black Series LED, taking in the light, while the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting continues bringing additional illumination into the lower portions of the plant. And the response is becoming visible. She's filling out. She's building flower mass. She's turning energy into structure. The room might look like it's simply full of green plants and bright lights. But underneath all of that is an incredible biological process happening every second. And Frosted Guava is working. 💡 Light Above & Below The Future of Grow Black Series LED continues providing the main source of light above the canopy, while Lumiflora continues supporting the lower flowering areas. At approximately 1,000 PPFD across the upper canopy, the plants have plenty of photons available during this stage. The under-canopy lighting adds another layer to the system, particularly as the room becomes increasingly full and the foliage naturally creates more shade below the main canopy. I'm especially interested in watching how Frosted Guava's lower flowering sites develop as the flowers continue gaining size. But once again, I'm not going to write the ending before we reach it. The harvest will tell us what the photons actually accomplished. 🌿 A Plant Finding Her Own Personality This is probably what I appreciate most about Frosted Guava. She isn't trying to be the biggest plant in the room. She's not trying to stretch endlessly toward the ceiling. She's simply developing her own shape. And now that the flowers are becoming more substantial, that individuality is becoming easier to appreciate. Some phenotypes announce themselves immediately. Others reveal themselves slowly. Frosted Guava feels like the second kind. She's quietly been building a foundation week after week, and now we're beginning to see the reward. A lush plant. Strong foliage. Beautiful flowering sites. Increasing frost. And flowers that are slowly but surely filling out. She's finding her own spice. 💧 Nutrition The feeding program remains consistent this week: Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Plagron pH Plus – 0.03 ml/L Plagron Lemon Kick – 0.03 ml/L Current recorded parameters: pH: 6.0 EC: approximately 2.0 mS/cm Watering: approximately 1.3 L per 24 hours Solution temperature: 21°C Root-zone temperature: 21°C There is no reason to reinvent the wheel when the plant is responding beautifully. Consistency continues to be the name of the game. 🌡️ Environment The room continues running with remarkably stable conditions: Day temperature: 29°C Night temperature: 25°C Relative humidity: 60% CO₂: approximately 639 ppm The combination of stable temperature, humidity, airflow, lighting and irrigation continues creating the environment I'm looking for throughout the flowering room. And Frosted Guava seems perfectly happy inside it. 🌬️ The 8×8 Is Becoming One Garden One of the most exciting things about this stage isn't just watching Frosted Guava. It's looking around the entire 8×8. What began as individual plants occupying their own little spaces has gradually transformed into one enormous flowering ecosystem. Every phenotype still has its own personality. Different structures. Different stretch. Different flower shapes. Different rates of development. But together they're becoming one living canopy. And Frosted Guava has found her place within it. She's not the tallest. She's not trying to dominate. She's simply contributing her own character to the garden. And that's exactly what this project was designed to show. 🔭 Looking Ahead The coming weeks should be fascinating. The flowers should continue gaining volume and density, the frost should become increasingly obvious, and those beautiful white pistils will slowly begin telling us more about the plant's progression toward maturity. For now, though, I want to see her continue doing exactly what she's doing. Keep the leaves healthy. Keep eating photons. Keep building. Keep filling out. And keep showing us what this particular Frosted Guava phenotype has hidden inside her genetics. She's got her own rhythm. I'm just here to watch it unfold. ❤️ Final Thoughts – She Has Found Her Spice Frosted Guava doesn't need to be the tallest plant in the room. She doesn't need to be the biggest. She doesn't need to compete with anyone. She's Frosted Guava. And she's starting to look really, really good. The deep green foliage. The beautiful white pistils. The first serious signs of frost. The developing flower mass. The way she's gradually filling out across her branches. Everything is coming together. And perhaps that's the most satisfying part of growing different phenotypes together. You give them the same environment. The same philosophy. The same care. And then you step back and watch them tell you who they are. Frosted Guava is telling us now. She's elegant. She's consistent. She's lush. She's frosty. And she's got her own spice. A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for making this adventure possible with these fantastic genetics, Plagron for the nutrition, Future of Grow for the incredible Black Series lighting, Lumiflora for adding the under-canopy dimension, TrolMaster for environmental control, and of course to everyone following this journey on GrowDiaries. Your support, comments, and enthusiasm make documenting this entire 8×8 Adventure incredibly special. Until next week... Let's keep watching this girl eat photons and turn them into flowers. ☀️🌿❄️ Growers love and happy growing! 🌱💚

8/10 Monday. 12:05AM FULL RETARD MODE ACTIVATED 8/10 MOnday - looking good needs water will ask Grok: For your Fast Buds autos (RF3s + Mendo Frost) at roughly week 5 in coco, target an incoming EC of about 1.2–1.6 mS/cm (roughly 600–800 ppm on the 500 scale). 8/11 4:30am 550 PPFD is solid for where those plants appear to be. Looking at the photo, you’ve got a clean, well-organized Spider Farmer tent with healthy-looking plants in fabric pots (plus the smaller one in the white pot). At 45 W per light (90 W total) and hitting ~550 µmol/m²/s, the efficiency is actually pretty good — modern diodes can deliver that intensity when the lights are relatively close and the footprint isn’t oversized. Quick context for that PPFD • Current stage (looks like mid-to-late veg on most of them): 450–650 is a strong sweet spot. You’re right in the middle. • You can push a bit higher (600–700+) if you want denser branching and tighter internodes, but 550 is already productive and lower-stress. • Once you flip to flower you’ll generally want to climb toward 700–900+ (depending on how the plants respond and whether you add CO₂). A few practical notes • Height & uniformity: At only 90 W total, the distance from the canopy is doing a lot of the work. If the outer edges or lower plants are noticeably dimmer, you may need a slight height adjustment or to rotate pots so everything stays even. • Heat: 76 °F and 48 % RH is comfortable. With only 90 W you’re not fighting heat. • Dimming headroom. The plants look happy — good color, no obvious light stress or stretch. You’re in a good place. If you want to share the exact model of the lights or the tent size, I can give more specific height/PPFD targets. 8/11 2:29PM these lights are so efficient and so good that I had to turn the electricity back each light is now down to about 40 W each so 80 instead of 90 Ish. I didn’t check the PPFD rating so I don’t know what the light measurements actually are, but I know keeping them at 40 each so a total of 80 W is very good. I raised the lights out there about 12 inches maybe a little bit more about 14 inches high off the top of the plant but doing good so far my EC was 1004 on whatever scale that is I’m using from 900 to 1.2 is what was recommended for EC. 8/ 10:48 AM I don’t really remember how to use those art supplies but my plants are starting to look nice and bonsai. One of them will be shaped like a snake. It’s gonna look really good and self supporting. The other ones are pretty good. These are gonna be a nice decorative grow. I should get a lot out of them too starting to flower fast buds always has the greatest staff. I mean there their plants are always the best. They respond so well to everything, especially all my mistakes they always recover. 8/13 12:47AM The two that are a touch pale are probably the ones you’re noticing. In coco that’s usually one of three things: Mild nitrogen hunger (common once they start really taking off) Cal-Mag demand ramping up (especially under LED) Or just the natural variation between the RF3 and the Mendo Frost phenotypes A light Cal-Mag bump or a small nitrogen nudge is the smart move. Don’t jump on it hard — just enough to bring the color back without pushing them into dark green and locking out other things. You’re already dialed in enough that a gentle correction should fix it quick. 👻👽 Your light setup is the real story though. Running two Mars Hydro TS1000s at ~40 W each instead of one at 80–90 W is a classic low-heat efficiency play. Same total photons, way better distribution, and almost zero heat load. That’s why you’re getting this kind of growth with almost no thermal stress. The plants are loving the gentle, even intensity. Dropping from 45 W to 40 W each was the right call — 45 was just enough to start pushing them. 👻👽
