Hello, all grower brothers and sisters! After a long wait, we are finally ready to show you all the finish of this harvest! I shared a lot of content for you and I hope you enjoy it.. The growth of these plants has all in all been quite simple .... in comparison .... what they have been able to give me back .... is something extremely RARE Between one phenotype and another they each took on a different color....but all extremely potent! Tight, solid buds that overflow with resin 😬😋 Just how I like them!! my work combined with the scrog technique paid off and these fantastic lights meant that even the lower buds got the light they deserved ,But all this would not have been possible if I hadn't had good nutrients with me to enrich the soil at the right point! All without ever checking the EC of the ground 😉 Stay updated

Flowers are starting to form and I’m just watching these closely because it’s my first time running them and I’ve seen a few people have issues with herms

Day 56 Last fertilized irrigation Day 59 2 ML Flawless Finish Good days incoming ill try to chop her at day 65 Last update, ill see you in the harvest :)

gg4s all flushed out she smells fruity not like the gg4 i know more like a gorilla zkittles shes a huge plant and stacked well with some fat colas will be back with the harvest shortly thanks for reading happy growing guys

Hello everyone! The last two weeks I have been very busy so I did not have time to upload the previous week. The previous week I noticed a mold starting to form in the flowers of the wedding cake (the taller plant) because the humidity was too high in the growing space. I acted quickly and added a dehumidifier, an extra fan and a home co2 system . On top of that, I cut out any part I found that was infected with the mold. Last week I started washing the gorilla skittles (the low plant) hoping to harvest it next week.

the buds are getting thicker and the odour more intense. it's my first almost buds and i'm really impressed by her performace. she's currently still getting biobizz top-max and she seems to like that and lots of sun. :)

Chopped one already. These 5 are finishing.

Started off by setting up the growing environment and dialling everything in such as; RO Water for the RDWC hydroponic system. Water Heater being set at 20 degrees C. Water chiller being set at 21 degrees C. pH being set at 5.7/5.8 Room Temp and humidity 20/23 Degrees C / 60%/80%RH. Instead of using rockwool cubes to place my seeds, I put them directly into the clay pebbles. I then used a DIY humidity dome to place over the seeds until they make an appearance. I have been top feeding RO water every 6 hours. Foil was used to cover the net pot to ensure no light leaks were going into the system. Highly important in DWC. Will add some light nutrients once seeds are more established. Until the next one!

Top Top top!

Took a while to get there but OMG little note quick! So I started her in a 1 litre pot and stuck her on top of a 1.5L Pepsi bottle with the top chopped off! And she yielded heavily for that amount of soil a whopping! 224.63 wet weight so can’t wait to see what she holds dry because them buds were like boulders! So dense! I will be back to document her dry weight and then a couple of weeks later with the update on the smoke report! But I know it’s going to be so loud! She has deep pungent aromas like gassy and sweet! She’s going to be a powerhouse! She was a little over as today a banana developed but that just tells me “well done” timing just right! She’s a little long for my taste of auto but I do suggest anyone grow her she’s amazing! In the end!

Harvested on day 63! We got some amazing fade on some of these girls:) and I only flushed for 3 days this time around. I want to try and see how not flushing works out based on the research I’ve found. I have a frost pheno that checks all the boxes I’m looking for but we’ll know for sure in a couple of weeks. The terps on these girls are leaning towards the wedding cake with some gas ⛽️ 🎂😁😁

It was my first grow and got 80G dry thanku to everyone who helped me it was outstanding thanks again

Day 50: Wow these girls are loving their repot. I moved them up to their final 50L pots now so no more disturbing those roots. They were starting to circle just as I re-potted so I think i hit it perfectly . They have been so easy to work with so far and took to their training so well. I am going to begin tying down for their final setting now I have the growth tips and choices of where they go. I am going to strip out a little leaf too and also make sure I take out any potential popcorn larf. FFT1 is certainly the smaller of the group but her squat nature gives her a nice thick stem to hold weight. No issues with her at all. FFT5 sits in the middle for her growth size. She is also looking very healthy and her Mega crop start has given her a beautiful colour on her leaves. She looks sativa in her structure for node distance so I think a stern tie down will be needed to keep her in check. FFT7 is by far the biggest of the group and also has the most actual growth within her. The many heads will need some serious thought as to who goes on to be a champion and who becomes the mulch sacrifice. She has some big fans developing and will need some space to bloom I reckon. Well done on these Fast buds. Until next week Growmies.

@FAST_BUDS, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this new secret CBD plant from @FAST_BUDS, will turn out. .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-09-11. Kl 12.00. Week 4 starts. I have cleaned the whole room for the new week and gave the girls water and nutes. Added videos and pics. Girl nr 1 is 27 cm high and girl nr 2 is 22 cm high. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-12. Kl 10.00. New pics and video. Girl Nr1 has grown 5 cm in 23 hours, from 27 to 32 cm.😍 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-13. Kl 22.00. Everything is looking great in the garden right now. Added new video. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-15. KL 10.00.

Hallo zusammen 🤙. Sie wächst sehr schön und macht keine Umstände.

👑 8×8 Adventure – Week 13 🌿 Godfather OG – Pheno B 💨 Big Mama Is Still Here… And She's Getting Louder 👑🌸🔥 Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And yes... I have a confession. 😂 This week, I got distracted by her sister. Because while Godfather OG Pheno A decided to make herself VERY known with her smell... I was apparently too busy paying attention to the loud girl. 😂👃💨 And somehow... Big Mama Pheno B escaped the camera. Again. 😂📸❌ So no dedicated photo session for her this week. But before anyone thinks we've forgotten about this beautiful girl... NO. Absolutely not. She's right there. She's clearly visible in the room footage. And honestly, anyone who has been following this diary already knows exactly who she is. She's Big Mama. She's big. She's beautiful. She's present. She's substantial. She's doing exactly what she has been doing throughout this entire journey. And she's still looking damn good. 👑🌿🌸 So this week we're going to do something slightly different. No photo gallery. No individual portraits. Just a little reminder that the Big Mama is still standing there in the jungle... doing her thing... and quietly becoming louder herself. Let's give this girl the spotlight she deserves. ──────────────────────── 👑 WEEK 13 – BIG MAMA IS STILL BIG MAMA If you've been following this diary from the beginning, you already know this girl. You don't need me to introduce her. You know who she is. Godfather OG Pheno B. Our Big Mama. 😂👑🌿 She's one of those plants where you don't need a close-up photograph to recognize her. You see her in the room footage... and immediately: "There she is." 😂 She's got presence. She's got size. She's got structure. She's got flowers. She's got that unmistakable Godfather OG personality. And even though this week doesn't have her usual collection of dedicated photographs, she hasn't disappeared. Not even close. She's still right there. Still developing. Still filling her space. Still moving toward the final stages. And still looking beautiful. ──────────────────────── 📸 YES… WE MISSED THE PHOTO SESSION Let's just admit it. 😂 This week... the camera didn't make it to Big Mama. Somehow, I got distracted with her sister and the whole "WHO THE HELL IS MAKING THIS MUCH SMELL?" situation. 😂👃🔥 And by the time I realized it... the dedicated photo session was already gone. So instead of pretending otherwise, we're simply documenting it honestly. There are no dedicated photos of Pheno B this week. But she is clearly visible in the room videos. And if you've been following these reports... you know exactly what you're looking at. You know her structure. You know her position. You know her size. You know those flowers. You know Big Mama. 👑🌿 And next week? She's getting her full photographic treatment again. Promise. 😂📸 ──────────────────────── 🌿 THE PLANT IS STILL DOING HER THING And honestly... that's probably the most important part. The missing photographs don't mean anything changed in the plant. She's still developing. Still flowering. Still maturing. Still filling her space. Still doing what she has been doing for weeks. We're now deep into the later flowering stage, and the plant is increasingly focused on finishing what she started. The structure is already established. The flowers are there. The plant has spent the entire grow building herself. Now we're watching that work mature. And Big Mama is doing exactly that. Quietly. Consistently. Beautifully. ──────────────────────── 👑 SHE'S STILL GOT PRESENCE Some plants you have to search for. Not this girl. 😂👑 Even in the room footage... she stands out. She's big. She's substantial. She's got flowers everywhere. And she has that presence that we've been talking about since the beginning. That's one of the reasons I gave her the nickname Big Mama in the first place. She earned it. And she still does. She's not suddenly becoming smaller because we forgot to photograph her. 😂 She's still occupying her space. She's still making herself noticed. And she's still one of those girls that you look at when you walk into the room. "Yep." There's Big Mama. ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FLOWERS ARE STILL BEAUTIFUL Even without this week's close-up gallery, the room footage gives us enough of a look to see that the flowers are continuing their development. They're becoming more mature. The structures are becoming increasingly established. The plant is progressing toward the final stages. And when you know this phenotype from the previous weeks, you can recognize her expression immediately. That's something I really love about these individual diaries. After twelve-plus weeks of watching a plant... you learn her. You don't need a label every time. You know the structure. You know the way she fills the room. You know the way her flowers develop. You know her personality. And Big Mama has become one of those plants for me. ──────────────────────── 💨 AND WHAT ABOUT THE SMELL? Now... this is where things get interesting. Because after being distracted by her sister... I started comparing. 😂👃 And I have to say... Pheno B is definitely not silent. She's not as loud as her sister. Or at least... she doesn't seem to be right now. Her aroma isn't hitting me in quite the same way. But... the profile is very similar. And I'm pretty damn sure she's getting louder by the day. 😂🔥👃 That's what I'm noticing. She's developing her own aromatic presence. Maybe she's simply taking her time. Maybe she's going to surprise us later. Maybe her sister is just naturally more aggressive with the aroma. Or maybe... Big Mama is simply warming up. 😂 And if she keeps increasing at this rate... we might have another loud girl on our hands. ──────────────────────── 👃 SAME FAMILY – DIFFERENT VOLUME This is another beautiful little lesson from the 8×8 Adventure. Two phenotypes. Same general genetics. Same room. Same lighting. Same irrigation. Same nutrition. Same environment. And yet... different expressions. Even the aroma can tell us something. Pheno A is currently making herself VERY obvious. Pheno B? She's more reserved. For now. 😂👃 But the underlying profile feels similar. And that's exactly the sort of thing I love seeing. Because we're not simply asking: "What does Godfather OG smell like?" We're asking: "What does THIS Godfather OG phenotype smell like?" And then... "What does her sister smell like?" And suddenly the answer becomes much more interesting. ──────────────────────── 💚 BIG MAMA IS STILL LOOKING HEALTHY Despite this week's photographic failure... she's still giving us a beautiful overall impression. She's still carrying herself well. She's still developing. She's still got that substantial structure. And she's still doing exactly what we want her to do at this stage: Finish. There's no reason to manufacture work. There's no reason to interfere just because we don't have a camera in our hands. 😂 Sometimes the best thing you can do is simply observe. And when we look at Big Mama... she's telling us she's okay. She's continuing forward. ──────────────────────── ⚗️ THE NUTRITION IS STILL MOVING TOWARD THE FINISH As with the rest of the room, we're continuing the gradual transition toward the later stages. The mineral base has already been reduced. Terra Bloom is around: 🌱 2.0 ml/L with the room EC around: ⚡ ~2.05 mS/cm The approach remains gradual. No dramatic overnight changes. No "everything stops tomorrow." Just a progressive transition while we watch the plants. And Big Mama is still actively developing. So we're watching her. Listening to her. And allowing her to finish in her own rhythm. ──────────────────────── 💡 THE ARTIFICIAL SUN IS STILL FLYING The upgraded Future of Grow lighting setup remains in place. Two additional Black Series 600W fixtures. Controlled output. Approximately: 🔌 59% power from the plug With approximately: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. Big Mama is still right underneath that artificial sun. And she's still doing what she has always done... turning photons into plant. 😂☀️🌿👑 More capability. More control. Same room. Same experiment. Different genetic response. That's the 8×8. ──────────────────────── ☀️ BIG PLANT – THREE-DIMENSIONAL LIGHT And once again, Big Mama is a perfect example of why I don't think about lighting as simply: "How much light does the tent get?" She's a big, three-dimensional plant. Different flowers are at different heights. Different leaves are positioned differently. Different parts of the canopy receive different amounts of direct light. The upper canopy is around that ~1,500 PPFD range. Deeper areas naturally receive less. And the Lumiflora lighting continues giving us another layer deeper into that structure. We're not lighting a flat table. We're lighting a jungle. 😂🌿☀️ And Big Mama is certainly taking advantage of her space. ──────────────────────── 🔬 SAME ROOM – DIFFERENT ANSWERS This remains the heart of the 8×8 Adventure. Twelve plants. One room. Shared environmental philosophy. Shared lighting. Shared irrigation. Shared nutrition. One grower. And twelve completely different answers. Godfather OG Pheno B is giving us hers. She's big. She's vigorous. She's beautiful. She's substantial. She's developing quickly. And now... she's becoming increasingly aromatic. Maybe not as loud as her sister. Yet. 😂👃🔥 But definitely heading in that direction. ──────────────────────── 📸 NEXT WEEK, SHE'S GETTING HER SPOTLIGHT BACK And I promise... next week we're correcting the photographic crime. 😂📸👑 Big Mama will be back with: 🌿 Full-plant photographs 🌸 Flower portraits 💎 Close-ups 📸 Her individual progression 👑 Her full spotlight Because she deserves it. This week was simply one of those weird moments where the camera went toward one sister... and somehow forgot the other. It happens. We're human. 😂 But Big Mama isn't going anywhere. She's right there. Still shining. Still growing. Still beautiful. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ WEEK 13 – CURRENT ROOM CONDITIONS The 8×8 continues under the same general setup: 🌸 Flowering — Week 13 💡 Light schedule — 12/12 ☀️ Upper-canopy PPFD — ~1,500 🔌 Future of Grow Black Series output — ~59% from the plug 🌡️ Day temperature — ~26.5–27°C 🌙 Night temperature — ~25–26°C 💧 Relative humidity — ~60–61% 🌱 Substrate temperature — ~25–26°C 💦 Nutrient solution temperature — ~25°C ⚗️ pH — approximately 6.0 ⚡ EC — ~2.05 mS/cm 💨 CO₂ — ~693 ppm 💧 Irrigation — ~1.4–1.45 L/plant/24h 🌱 Pot size — 15 L Same room. Same environment. Same artificial sun. Same irrigation. Same nutritional transition. Different Big Mama. And she's still doing beautifully. ──────────────────────── 💨 IS BIG MAMA GOING TO GET LOUDER? That's now another question I'm genuinely curious about. Because I think she is. Her sister is currently stealing the aromatic spotlight. No question. 😂🔥👃 But Pheno B has a very similar profile. And I'm noticing more and more presence from her as the days pass. So I'm not counting her out. Not even remotely. Maybe she's just taking the scenic route. Maybe she needs a little more time. Maybe her final expression will surprise us. That's the fun part. We don't know yet. And I'm not going to invent an ending before the plant gives us one. Let's watch. Let's smell. Let's document. And eventually... let's find out. ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FINAL CHAPTERS ARE GETTING CLOSER We're getting deeper into the run now. The flowers are established. The plants are mature. The colours are changing. The resin is becoming more visible. And the nutritional programme is beginning its gradual transition. Big Mama is moving along with the rest of the room. Some girls are ahead. Some are behind. Some are louder. Some are quieter. Some are changing colour. Some are staying greener. And that's exactly why this project has been so much fun. There's no single timeline. There's twelve. ──────────────────────── 👑 BIG MAMA DOESN'T NEED A PHOTO TO BE BIG MAMA This week has actually reminded me of something. The photographs are important. They're documentation. They're the visual record. But they're not the plant. The plant is still there. And when you have followed her for twelve weeks... you know her. You recognize her. You know what you're looking at. And Big Mama is one of those girls. She's unmistakable. She's substantial. She's beautiful. She's present. She's doing exactly what she can do. And honestly... that's enough. The photographs will come next week. For now... we let her shine in the room footage. 👑🌿💚 ──────────────────────── ❤️ FINAL THOUGHTS – THE BIG MAMA IS STILL SHINING Week 13. And yes... we got distracted. 😂 Her sister started making enough noise with her aroma to steal the attention for a moment. And somehow... Big Mama lost her photo session. I'm sorry, Your Majesty. 😂👑📸 But the good news? She's still beautiful. She's still big. She's still present. She's still developing. She's still filling her space. She's still carrying those beautiful flowers. And she's still becoming increasingly aromatic. She's not as loud as her sister... at least not yet. 😂👃 But the profile is very similar. And I'm pretty convinced she's getting louder by the day. So perhaps we're simply watching the beginning of another aromatic story. And that's something I'm very interested in. Because this girl has already shown us so much. She's been one of the substantial plants in this room from the beginning. She's been vigorous. She's been beautiful. She's claimed her space. She's developed her own expression. And now... she's approaching the final chapter. So let's not rush her. Let's not force her. Let's simply watch. And next week... we bring the camera back. 😂📸👑 Big Mama gets her full spotlight again. Because she deserves it. Until then... Keep shining, Big Mama. Keep doing exactly what you're doing. Keep filling that corner. Keep developing those beautiful flowers. And keep getting louder. 😂👃💨👑 We're watching. We're learning. And we're enjoying every minute of it. ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU A huge thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries. 💚🌱 Thank you to Zamnesia for giving us the opportunity to explore these Godfather OG genetics and document these individual phenotypes throughout the journey. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden with the growing media and nutrition throughout this run. A massive thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the Black Series lighting and especially for providing the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures we're testing in this room. More lighting capability. More control. More photons. And another fascinating variable for this experiment. Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light deeper into the canopy and allowing us to think about this garden as the three-dimensional space that it really is. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping monitor and manage the environment behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following these girls week after week. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by. You're all part of this crazy adventure. Twelve plants. One room. One shared environment. Twelve completely different stories. And Godfather OG Pheno B? She's still writing hers as Big Mama. 👑🌿🌸💎 This week she may not have had the dedicated photographs she deserved... but she's still right there. Still big. Still beautiful. Still present. Still developing. Still shining. And possibly... getting louder. 😂👃🔥 Next week... we bring the camera back. Big Mama gets her portraits. Her close-ups. Her flower shots. Her full report. And the spotlight goes right back where it belongs. On her. 👑💚🌸 Until next week... Growers Love, my friends. 🌱💚 Happy growing, take care everyone... and Big Mama? I'm sorry about the camera. 😂📸👑 We'll make it up to you next week. See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿🔥👑💨

SUMMARY: The OG has bounced back from the pH issues now after giving all watering/irrigation at a pH of 6.5. I continued with the updated GWE mid bloom nutes for the OG and Sensi Garden peak bloom nutes for the Amnesia. I also continued with some light defoliation this week removing the odd lower leaf and some fan leaves covering bud sites that I couldn't tuck. DAY 78 -------- Thursday 19/11/2020 I fed the plants. GWE 2020 updated Mid-bloom nutes for the OG and Sensi Garden Peak Flower nutes for the Amnesia. Although I only mixed these nutes and pH'd to 6.4 on Monday I always check again before and the readings had changed - I don't think my pH pen is the best (yes I keep the tip moist). I didn't have time to pH again and tbh after spending 30mins doing this the other day it can get to fuck and stay as is. OG (in) = 5L pH 6.4 OG (out) = 1.05L (21%) pH 5.7 [0.7 drop] Amnesia (in) = 4L pH 6.2 Amnesia (out) = 1.4L (35%) pH 5.9 [0.3 drop] The plants look healthy still with no signs of issues and are both a great colour so I think they're doing just fine. The OG has bounced back from the pH issues now and is really blooming fast, much faster that the Amnesia which makes me sad as I will inevitably cut her down early...I think she has the potential to be a beast judging on bud development so far. The Amnesia on the other hand...I'm starting to become a little disenchanted with her due to the very slow progression of the buds - I was expecting bigger buds but I don't think the genetics are the best (freebies from Seedsman). DAY 80 -------- Saturday 21/11/2020 I fed the plants. GWE 2020 updated Mid-bloom nutes for the OG and Sensi Garden Peak Flower nutes for the Amnesia. Although I only mixed these nutes and pH'd to 6.4 on Monday I always check again before and the readings had changed - I don't think my pH pen is the best (yes I keep the tip moist). I didn't have time to pH again and tbh after spending 30mins doing this the other day it can get to fuck and stay as is. OG (in) = 5L pH 6.4 OG (out) = 0.9L (18%) pH 5.8 [0.6 drop] Amnesia (in) = 4L pH 6.4 Amnesia (out) = 1.55L (39%) pH 6.0 [0.4 drop] The humidity has been between 43-55% the last week which is good. I turned the heat up to 25°C a week ago which seems to have helped bring the RH down. DAY 82 -------- Monday 23/11/2020 I fed the plants. GWE 2020 updated Mid-bloom nutes for the OG and Sensi Garden Peak Flower nutes for the Amnesia. OG (in) = 5L pH 6.4 OG (out) = 1.1L (22%) pH 6.0 [0.4 drop] Amnesia (in) = 4L pH 6.3 Amnesia (out) = 1.25L (31%) pH 6.1 [0.2 drop] The RH has been lower the last week or so and it seems to be due to the defoliation I've been doing every time I water/irrigate (removing a few obstructing/pointless leaves). I think because its such a small space the removal of the leaves has allowed for a constant 15-20% drop and so its right where I want it now at 40-50%. DAY 84 -------- Wednesday 25/11/2020 I watered the plants with pH'd tap water as my rainwater supply has dried up a little. OG (in) = 5.5L pH 6.3 OG (out) = 1.17L (23%) pH 5.4 [0.9 drop] Amnesia (in) = 4L pH 6.3 Amnesia (out) = 1.2L (30%) pH 5.4 [0.9 drop] No idea why there is a drop in pH of 0.9 for both when there has been a steady trend of it getting closer to the input value. But its expected to vary and 0.5 either side is standard I believe. The Amnesia is taking forever to fatten up, if it ever will now at this point. I know theyre only getting 12 hours of light but this is SLOW!

Doucement mais sûrement les branches latéral progresse 🌱👍🏼😌

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 10 🥒 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno B 🌸 The Week Where We Let Her Shine Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 And this week... I'm going to start by saying something that has become increasingly obvious while watching this project develop: These girls are incredible. 😂💙 Not because they're doing something completely different from each other. Actually... quite the opposite. They're becoming remarkably similar. Same room. Same environment. Same lighting. Same irrigation. Same nutrition. Same training philosophy. Same major interventions. And now, as we reach this stage of flowering... they almost look like copies of each other. And that is fascinating. Today we're putting the spotlight back on Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno B. And honestly? She's looking absolutely beautiful. 🌿 WEEK TEN – NOTHING TO FIX After the amount of work we did during the previous weeks, this week was refreshingly simple. We didn't perform another major defoliation. We didn't change the structure. We didn't move branches around. We didn't install another SCROG. We didn't start chasing the canopy. We didn't try to force anything. We simply watched. And that's because there really isn't anything screaming at us for attention. Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno B is approximately 145 cm tall. She's healthy. She's vigorous. She's flowering. She's supported. And she's settling beautifully into the structure we created for her. Sometimes... doing nothing is actually doing something. 😂🌱 🌸 LOOKING AT THE RESULTS OF THE PREVIOUS WEEKS This is the part of the project I find particularly satisfying. During the previous weeks, we were constantly making decisions. The girls stretched. We ran out of vertical space. The LEDs needed to be raised. The carbon filter and extractor were moved outside the tent. The canopy became extremely dense. We performed a deep defoliation. We installed the second SCROG. We added additional airflow underneath the canopy. We adjusted the nutrition. There was a lot happening. But now? We get to watch those decisions play out. And Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno B is giving us a very nice answer. She's standing there with a beautifully organized flowering structure. The branches are visible. The canopy is open. The flowers are developing. The support system is in place. The airflow is moving. And the plant looks comfortable. That's what we wanted. 🌿 THE DEFOILIATION IS NOW IN THE REAR-VIEW MIRROR One of the biggest things I'm watching this week is how beautifully the plant has settled after the heavy defoliation. At the time, the room looked completely different. We had an enormous amount of vegetative material. The plants had stretched aggressively. The interior of the canopy was extremely dense. So we opened everything up. Not because leaves are bad. Quite the opposite. Leaves are essential. But the structure had become so crowded that we needed to manage the density and make the flowering architecture more functional. And now... we're seeing the result. The plant has had time to recover. The remaining foliage is doing its job. The flowering sites are much easier to see. Air can move through the structure. And the entire plant feels more organized. That's the beautiful part. The intervention is finished. Now the plant gets to tell us what it thought about it. And so far? I like the answer. 💡 LUMIFLORA – LIGHTING THE LOWER CANOPY The biggest new addition to the setup is still the LumiFlora under-canopy light. We're now running the **LumiFlora 150W full-spectrum fixture**, with additional emphasis toward the red portion of the spectrum. And with these girls becoming this large, it makes perfect sense to explore supplemental lighting underneath the canopy. The main Phytonaut LEDs continue providing the primary light from above. But with a plant this tall and this developed, the lower portions naturally receive less direct light. So instead of constantly removing more foliage to try to expose every single flowering site to the overhead fixtures, we're taking another approach. We're bringing supplemental light to the lower canopy. The LumiFlora is there to complement the overhead lighting. Not replace it. Not compete with it. Simply add another layer of light where the structure naturally creates more shade. And now... we watch. 🌸 I'm particularly interested in seeing how the lower flowering areas develop over the coming weeks. That's one of the reasons I love documenting these experiments. We make a change. Then we wait for the plant to answer. 🕸️ THE SECOND SCROG IS RIGHT WHERE WE WANT IT The second SCROG remains in place and, just like the rest of the setup, we're not touching it unnecessarily. It has already done what we wanted. The first SCROG helped us organize the vegetative canopy. The second SCROG is now there to provide additional support as flowering continues. With Pheno B reaching approximately 145 cm, she's built a substantial framework. As those flowers continue gaining weight, having that extra support available becomes increasingly useful. We're not trying to reshape her anymore. We're not trying to force branches into new positions. The structure is established. Now we support it. And then we let her do her thing. 🥒💙 🌬️ AIRFLOW – KEEPING EVERYTHING MOVING The airflow system also remains unchanged. We have airflow working through different levels of the canopy, with the additional Zamnesia clip fan underneath helping move air through the lower portion of the plant. That becomes particularly interesting now that the LumiFlora has been introduced. We're adding light underneath the canopy, so naturally we want to make sure the lower portion of the room continues to have good air movement as well. The goal isn't to create a hurricane. 😂 It's simply to avoid stagnant pockets of air inside a very mature flowering structure. The canopy is open. The air is moving. The extraction system is outside the tent. And the room feels much more balanced than it did a few weeks ago. NUTRITION – CONSISTENCY IS KING The nutrition remains exactly where the plants are telling us they want it. We're continuing with the PLAGRON Hydro program: PLAGRON Hydro A — 2.2 ml/L PLAGRON Hydro B — 2.2 ml/L 🌱 PLAGRON Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L 🌸 PLAGRON Power Buds — 1 ml/L pH adjusted as required Current EC is approximately 2.49 mS/cm. And again... we aren't changing things just for the sake of changing them. The plants are happy. They're consuming. They're flowering. They're maintaining beautiful foliage. So we're staying consistent. This is something I've always enjoyed about working with plants: They tell you when they're comfortable. You just have to pay attention. Don't feed a number. Watch the plant. 🌸💙 🥒 PHENO B – LOOKING MORE AND MORE LIKE HER SISTERS Here's the really fascinating part. Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno B is beginning to look remarkably similar to the other girls in the tent. And that's something I find genuinely interesting. These are individual plants. They're being documented separately. We're watching their individual personalities develop. And yet... under the exact same environmental conditions... they're showing an incredible amount of uniformity. The same general height. The same aggressive vegetative development. The same flowering transition. The same response to the structural work. The same need for support. The same beautiful recovery after defoliation. It's almost like looking at several versions of the same plant. 😂💙 Of course, there will still be phenotype differences. That's what we're here to discover. But right now? The uniformity is impressive. And that's making me even more curious about what happens as they mature. 🔬 SAME ENVIRONMENT – LETTING GENETICS SPEAK This is exactly why Project Blue Tent is so interesting to me. We're keeping so many variables consistent. Same tent. Same lighting. Same irrigation. Same nutrition. Same environmental conditions. Same general training. And then we watch. The more consistent the environment remains, the more interesting the individual differences become. Or, in this case... the lack of obvious differences. 😂 The Pickle Lemon Haze F1 girls are behaving remarkably similarly. And that's giving us a very interesting picture of how these genetics are expressing themselves in this particular environment. But we're not jumping to conclusions yet. We're still early enough in the flowering development that the final differences may become much more obvious later. So... we watch. 🌿 THE PLANT DOESN'T NEED US TO CONSTANTLY TOUCH IT One of the biggest lessons from this stage of the grow is knowing when to step back. There is always something a grower can do. You can remove another leaf. Move another branch. Change another setting. Adjust another number. Add another product. But that doesn't mean you should. 😂 At this point, Pheno B looks like she doesn't need another intervention. She needs stability. She needs time. She needs light. She needs nutrition. She needs airflow. And then... she needs to be left alone to do what plants do. Grow. Flower. Develop. Finish. And that's exactly what we're doing. 💡 FROM OVERHEAD LIGHT TO A COMPLETE LIGHTING ENVIRONMENT The introduction of LumiFlora is also changing how I'm thinking about the lighting inside this tent. Previously, the main story was always the overhead LEDs. How high are they? How far from the canopy? How much stretch? How much vertical room? Now we've added another dimension. We're thinking about the plant in three dimensions. Light from above. Supplemental light underneath. A canopy occupying the space between. And that's particularly interesting with plants that have become this large. The LumiFlora 150W full-spectrum fixture gives us another tool to explore how supplemental lower-canopy lighting can fit into the overall system. We're not expecting miracles. We're not claiming it will automatically transform the plants. We're simply giving the lower canopy another source of light... and watching. That's what this whole project is about. Observation. Experimentation. Documentation. 🌸 CURRENT GROW CONDITIONS 🌸 Flowering: Week 10 📏 Height: approximately 145 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ☀️ Day temperature: 27°C 🌙 Night temperature: 27°C 💧 Relative humidity: 61% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: approximately 2.49 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 24°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 24°C 🌬️ CO₂: approximately 666 ppm 💦 Watering: approximately 1.6 L per plant / 24h ? Pot size: 8 L 💡 LumiFlora Under-Canopy: 150W Full Spectrum The room is stable. The plants are stable. And that's exactly what we want right now. 🔭 WHAT I'M WATCHING NOW At this point, the questions have changed. I'm no longer asking: "How do we control the stretch?" We've already dealt with that. I'm no longer asking: "How do we fit them into the tent?" We've created the space. I'm no longer asking: "How do we open the canopy?" We've already done that. Now I'm asking: How quickly will the flowers develop? How will the lower canopy respond to the LumiFlora? How will the second SCROG perform as the flowers gain weight? Will the Pickle Lemon Haze phenotypes continue looking this similar? And finally... what are these girls going to look like when maturity really starts showing? Those are much more exciting questions. 😂💙 🌸 LET THEM WORK This week is really about one thing: Let them work. We've already spent weeks building these plants. We've created the structure. We've managed the canopy. We've opened the room. We've improved airflow. We've raised the lights. We've added support. We've adjusted nutrition. We've now introduced supplemental under-canopy lighting. There isn't much more I want to manipulate right now. I want to see what the plants do with everything we've given them. And Pheno B is making that decision very easy. She's looking fantastic. 🥒💙 🌸 FINAL THOUGHTS – THE QUIET WEEKS ARE SOMETIMES THE BEST ONES This week might not have been dramatic. There was no major training session. No emergency. No broken branch. No big room rearrangement. No massive intervention. And honestly? That's wonderful. 😂 Because sometimes the best grow updates are the ones where you can simply stand back and say: "Look at her." And that's exactly how I feel looking at Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno B. She's standing there at approximately 145 cm. She's healthy. She's vigorous. She's flowering. The canopy is open. The branches are supported. The airflow is moving. The nutrition is consistent. The overhead lighting is doing its job. And now the LumiFlora is giving the lower canopy another source of full-spectrum light. Everything we've done over the previous weeks is now becoming visible. This is the payoff phase. Not the harvest yet. Not the finish line. But the point where all those earlier decisions start becoming the plant we're looking at today. And that's incredibly satisfying. 💙🌸🥒 The most fascinating part? She looks remarkably similar to her sisters. Four girls. One room. Same environment. And somehow... they're developing like they're reading the same instruction manual. 😂 Maybe that's the beauty of these F1 genetics. Maybe it's simply the environment. Maybe we'll see more differences later. That's exactly why we're documenting everything. We don't need to decide the story today. The plants will tell us. And Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno B? She's telling us she's very happy. So we're listening. We're keeping everything stable. We're giving her the light, nutrition, support and airflow she needs. And we're stepping back. Now let's see what the future has waiting for this beautiful girl. 🌸🥒💙 🙏 A HUGE THANK YOU A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible and for giving us the opportunity to explore these beautiful Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics phenotype by phenotype. Thank you to PLAGRON for the Hydro nutrient line supporting these vigorous girls throughout this incredible flowering journey. A massive thank you to Zamnesia for the Phytonaut LED lighting, curved scissors and clip fans that have become such important parts of this project. Thank you to Mars Hydro for the automatic drip irrigation and drainage system that keeps these girls consistently supplied throughout their very thirsty journey. And a special thank you to LumiFlora for the 150W full-spectrum under-canopy light that we're now introducing into the setup to explore supplemental lighting underneath this beautiful flowering canopy. And of course, thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document this entire adventure. Most importantly... thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. 💙 This week was quiet. But sometimes quiet is exactly what you want. The plants are doing beautifully. The room is stable. The structure is established. The support is ready. The lighting is working from above and below. The nutrition is consistent. And now... we wait. Four plants. One environment. Different phenotypes. And an increasingly fascinating amount of similarity between them. 😂💙 Let's see what the future has in store. For now, Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno B is exactly where I want her to be. Healthy. Happy. Supported. Flowering. And shining. 🥒🌸💙 Until next week... Less intervention. More observation. More flowers. And hopefully... a little more of that beautiful Pickle Lemon Haze F1 magic. Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙
