Took out second Gator Breath plant which is even more incredible in terms of crystallization smell and buds size then previously cutted same strain plants. For the Total eclipse i am completely disappointed on the results: The plant may look quite potent but in real yu simply have no buds after trimming, tons of small leaver but no good material. I knew this was sativa hybrid but still.. You can see the comparing of two strains on the photos down here...Maybe I did something wrong during the growing, gonne ask expert-brothers on forum later.

I put the seed into glass of water for 18hrs, right after directly into the potting soil. usually after 3-4 days they schow their heads. Lets see how it goes. :D

La fase de engorde sigue viento en popa y una fragancia dulce inunda cuarto de cultivo junto con unos atractivos colores. Día 70, Día del último Riego con fertilizantes y desde ahora serán 15 días solo con agua y enzimas para obtener un resultado más limpio.

🌿 Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B | Week 9 ❄️ Dark, Frosty & Moving Fast Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! And this girl... She's shining. 💚 Every phenotype has something that makes it recognizable. Something that, after enough weeks of watching them develop, becomes part of their identity. With Frosted Guava Pheno B, I think I've finally found hers. That green. That incredibly deep, rich, dark green. It's one of the first things I notice every time I look at her. She's not the tallest plant in the room. She's not trying to become the biggest. But she has developed into a beautiful, compact, extremely healthy-looking flowering plant with an appearance that is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. And right now? She's moving. She's developing quickly. The flowers are progressing. The resin is becoming more obvious. And the whole plant looks like she's very happy with the direction she's taking. So this week... the spotlight belongs to her. 🌱 The 8×8 Adventure For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure. Twelve plants. Different genetics and phenotypes. One growing environment. One general philosophy. And an awful lot of personality. The project is being run under a 12/12 light schedule from seed, allowing each plant to reveal its natural architecture without giving them an extended traditional vegetative period. And this is exactly why I love documenting individual phenotypes. Because even when plants share the same genetic line, they don't necessarily tell the same story. Some stretch. Some stay compact. Some build enormous central flowers. Some distribute their flowers differently. Some become monsters. Some become elegant. And some... become very, very dark green Frosted Guavas. 😂💚 🌿 Look at That Green Let's start with the obvious. Look at her foliage. That colour is beautiful. Deep. Dark. Rich. Healthy-looking. The leaves have become one of the defining visual characteristics of this phenotype. And when you put that dark foliage next to the developing flowers, the contrast is fantastic. The white pistils stand out. The developing resin catches the light. The flowers appear almost brighter because they're surrounded by that deep green background. It's a beautiful combination. And I honestly really like this plant. There are plants you admire because they're enormous. There are plants you admire because they're unusual. And then there are plants where you simply look at them and think: "Damn... that's a beautiful plant." Frosted Guava Pheno B is becoming one of those for me. 🌸 The Flowers Are Moving Fast The biggest difference I'm noticing this week is the speed of development. She's moving. The flowers are becoming increasingly defined, with more structure appearing throughout the developing buds. The calyxes are becoming more obvious. The pistils are still beautifully prominent. And the resin continues making its presence known. Looking through the photographs, you can see how much is happening across the plant. She's not sitting still. She's building. And that's exactly what I want to see at this stage. There is still plenty of development ahead, but the direction is becoming increasingly clear. She's a flower builder. And she's getting on with the job. ❄️ Frosted Guava Is Starting to Look Frosted The name continues making more sense every week. The flowers are carrying increasingly visible resin, particularly around the developing calyxes and sugar leaves. And when you get close with the camera... that's when this plant really becomes interesting. The individual flowers have so much detail. White pistils crossing over one another. Calyxes stacking and expanding. Tiny sugar leaves surrounding the developing structures. And that little sparkle beginning to appear everywhere. This is exactly why I love photographing these plants. From a distance, they're simply beautiful flowering plants. Up close... they become another world. 👀 A Little Foxtailing? I can see a little bit of foxtailing beginning to appear in some of the flowers. And honestly? I'm not losing sleep over it. 😂 It's there. I'm seeing it. I'm documenting it. But I'm also looking at the entire plant. And the entire plant looks fantastic. The flowers are developing. The foliage is beautiful. The structure is healthy-looking. The plant is progressing quickly. So I'm not going to turn one characteristic into the entire story of the plant. This is phenotype observation. Sometimes a plant shows you a particular expression. You document it. You watch how it develops. And you let the plant finish telling you what that expression means. For now... I'm simply curious. Let's see where she takes it. ✂️ After Last Week's Cleanup Last week we gave her a selective cleanup. We removed foliage that had become unnecessary, opened some areas of the canopy and cleaned some of the lower growth. And importantly, we didn't try to strip everything. There was no reason to. Healthy leaves remained. The productive structure remained. And now we're watching how she responds. This week, I'm not looking to chase her with the scissors again. She's doing exactly what I want her to do: grow. The cleanup has been done. The room has been cleaned. The canopy has been organized. Now we let the plant work. Sometimes the best intervention after making a change... is to stop intervening and observe the result. 🌿 Small Plant. Absolutely Not a Small Plant. One thing that continues to amuse me about this phenotype is the difference between her physical size and her personality. At approximately 108 cm, she's considerably more compact than some of the other girls in the room. But she doesn't feel small. She has presence. She has flowers. She has structure. And she's becoming increasingly impressive every week. That's another lesson the 8×8 keeps teaching me. Height doesn't tell you everything. A shorter plant can still have an enormous personality. A compact plant can still produce an impressive flowering structure. And a plant doesn't need to reach the ceiling to deserve the spotlight. Frosted Guava Pheno B certainly doesn't. ☀️ Eating Photons The lighting environment continues to provide plenty of energy for this stage. The Future of Grow Black Series LED remains the main overhead light source, with Lumiflora contributing additional illumination into the lower canopy. And this girl is clearly making use of what she's receiving. Light goes in. The plant does its biological magic. And week after week... we see the result. More structure. More flowers. More resin. More development. This is one of the reasons I love having different phenotypes in the same room. You can give them essentially the same environment... and then watch how differently they use it. Frosted Guava Pheno B has found her own rhythm. And I really like her rhythm. 💧 Feeding & Environment The feeding program remains consistent with the flowering strategy: 🌱 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 ⚗️ pH adjustment as required Current recorded parameters: 🌸 Flowering: Week 9 📏 Height: 108 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 72% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ Recorded EC/TDS: ~2.0 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 🌬️ CO₂: 639 ppm ? Pot size: 15 L 💦 Watering: approximately 1.2 L per plant / 24h At this point in the cycle, stability remains the priority. The plant is moving well. The flowers are developing. The foliage remains remarkably dark and vigorous. So there is no reason to start changing things simply for the sake of changing them. 🌬️ Keeping an Eye on the Canopy With flowering progressing and the canopy continuing to develop, airflow and environmental consistency remain important. This is another reason I liked the cleanup we performed last week. Not because fewer leaves automatically means a better plant. It doesn't. But because thoughtful canopy management can help keep the structure organized as the flowers continue developing. And now that she's cleaned up? I'm happy to leave her alone. Let the remaining leaves work. Let the flowers develop. Let the plant show us what she wants to become. 📸 This Week's Gallery I think this week's gallery really captures her personality. The full-plant photographs show the structure. The closer photographs show the flowers. And the macro-style views reveal the details that make this phenotype special. The deep green foliage. The white pistils. The developing calyxes. The increasing resin. And those little signs of foxtailing appearing here and there. Everything together creates a plant that looks very much like herself now. And that's something I love about reaching this stage of a grow. Earlier in the cycle, you're asking: "What is this plant going to be?" Eventually you stop asking. You start saying: "Ah... this is who she is." And I think we're getting there with Frosted Guava Pheno B. 🔬 Phenotype Spotlight — The Dark Green Girl If I had to describe her in a few words right now: Compact. Dark green. Frosty. Fast. Beautiful. That's her. Her sister has her own personality. The other Frosted Guava phenotypes have their own expressions. But this girl? She's becoming very easy to recognize. And that's the beauty of phenotype hunting. You're not necessarily looking for one "perfect" plant. You're looking for differences. You're looking for expressions. You're looking for those little characteristics that make one plant stand out from another. And sometimes... you find a phenotype whose biggest characteristic is simply that you really, really enjoy looking at her. That's Frosted Guava B for me. 🔭 Looking Ahead Now I'm very curious. Because she's moving quickly. The flowers are developing beautifully. The resin is increasing. The structure is becoming more defined. And that little bit of foxtailing gives us another characteristic to watch. Will it continue? Will it settle? Will the flowers simply keep stacking and swelling around it? We'll see. I'm not going to write the ending yet. That's the plant's job. For now, I'm just going to keep watching. Keep documenting. Keep photographing. And keep letting this beautiful girl show us what she has. 💚 Final Thoughts — She Deserves the Spotlight Frosted Guava Pheno B started this adventure as the smaller, quieter sister. And look at her now. She's still compact. She's still different. But quiet? Not anymore. She's shining. That deep, deep green foliage is absolutely beautiful. The flowers are moving quickly. The calyxes are developing. The white pistils are everywhere. The frost is increasing. And the whole plant has developed an identity of its own. Yes, I can see a little foxtailing. And no... I don't mind. 😂 Because overall? She's outstanding. She's healthy-looking. She's balanced. She's beautiful. And she's giving me exactly what I love most about this project: something interesting to watch. Every week she gives me another little detail. Another change. Another reason to stop and look. And that's what the 8×8 Adventure is all about. Not just growing plants. Watching plants become themselves. Frosted Guava Pheno B is doing exactly that. And I have to admit... I really like who she's becoming. So let's keep watching. Let's keep photographing. Let's keep learning. And most importantly... let's let this dark green beauty shine. 💚❄️🌿 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for these beautiful genetics. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the flowering program. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for the main lighting driving the garden. Thank you to Lumiflora for adding the under-canopy dimension to this experiment. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping maintain the environment behind the scenes. And, of course, thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure on GrowDiaries. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every grower following along. It all makes this project more enjoyable. Frosted Guava Pheno B may not be the biggest girl in the room... But she's certainly becoming one of the girls I enjoy watching the most. Deep green. Beautiful flowers. A little frost. A little foxtailing. And a whole lot of personality. Let's see where she goes from here. Growers Love & Happy Growing! 🌱💚❄️

She’s frosting up and smelling sweet as , vid captures the lights turning on . Same same next week after a defol

Got a new light this week, it's basically a HLG 260 R-Spec except locally manufactured using the same Samsung LEDs. Big Mumma got her 60x60cm tent today and will go in there under one Viparspectra 300W blurple (130w from the wall). I trimmed her, super cropped her main stem and added a scrog net in preparation of flowering her in the next couple of days. Because my other plants were getting up past 75cm after 7 days of flower (100cm is my absolute max) , I decided to supercrop the canopy back down to about 60-65cm - it was pretty scary and I definitely broke the outer stem on some of them. Also gave them a good trim. Fortunately most bounced back strong the next day which are the most up-to-date photos you see (17/4/20).

Getting close.

Note: At time of writing the Runtz has had 2 weeks cure, will update the review and rate it after 2+ months cure. Hermied a bit, has very few seeds so not too bad. Growth review: - vigorous grower during veg - solid stretch - medium internode distance - small sized buds - lower buds not too airy - very easy/not fussy - medium amount of smell - 80+ days flower (12/12) in hydro DWC under full spectrum led - responded well to various lst techniques Ease of growth rating: 9/10 General note: --> For me personally this strain NEEDS a good cure and is not worth smoking yet... It has a bit of a citrus grassy (not hay) taste, with some 'special' fruity smells to it that remind a bit of grapes/cassis. When grinding/opening the curing pots there is a pretty dank heavy weed smell so I think the quality will come out after a few months of cure... In its current state not worth smoking for the taste or effect after 14 days cure. --> Currently the effect is not very strong, easy to handle and I need a lot to feel a bit. The effect lasts for short compared to the average strains I smoke. Should develop more character with a longer cure. Hash making notes: - water extraction of the trim yielded 16g of hash (45mc-220mc) - rosin has a bit too much of a weird spicy grassy taste which make it a bit unpleasant, waiting till the buds improve with cure to try again - rosin color at 80c is yellow/white/beige creamy waxy, with hard consistency - rosin color at 95c is golden with hard consistency

8/19 Monday Fast Buds Strawberry Gorilla just woke up, RSQ Medusa sprouted yesterday. So far so good. What a great Monday!!!! It's evening now, and Dark Devil Auto from Sweetseeds is clawing her way out from hell!!!!!! Yeah!!!! Still waiting on Blueberry in the mostly perlite mix so might not work, and Pink Kush she will be along soon. 8/20😈😈😈😈😈 Every single one clawed their way out of hell...100 percent success !!!!!!! 11am Dark Devil might need some assistance with her shell, looks awesome...... I've been dancing with the Dark Devil Auto in the pale moon light and it's pretty cool. 👹 This is the first time I didn't kill any seeds... when I get out of practice my germination rates are bad.... Im still learning to grow in 1 gallon. My health has gone to hell so I can only move smaller plants now...so much fun though. Easier AND I can do smaller 4 cola grows...they dry in 1 or 2 days NO WAITING for curing or 10 days to dry...it's just the BEST!!!!!!! 8/21 1 am Everyone is looking good a little worried about Dark Devil I may have helped too much again... I planted another dark devil auto seed just in case I’m not sure this one is really gonna work and if it does then I’ll have two of them growing in one and I’ll have a double Devil auto it’ll work. I’m pretty sure.👍👍 8/22 I took off the paper light diffuser I made raised the light up a few inches and have it at 50 Watts now. They are looking good. I replanted Dark DEvil seed maybe 2 will grow?? Halloween 8/23 8/24 Dark Devil Auto took off and the other one looks like she's trying to grow!!! 🚨 I was noticing some light stress since some of them are a week behind the other one I went ahead and turned the lights down to 45 W until all the plants are a little more stable. I just don’t wanna move them to another tent and turn another set of lights on. I’m trying to do this for low energy and heat as I can. They are responding well to turning the lights down 5 watts👍and Dark Devil Auto is being a devil, she has MASSIVE personality, she tricks me then wakes up..... I love when I can really connect with the plants sometimes they are like pets and they respond to you like pets. not very often but it happens . I successfully did a minor surgery on Dark Devil Auto, her cotyledon was stuck together so I used a razor and a paperclip for counter weight and CAREFULLY cut the seed coating off of it. Now I will have 2 in the same pot!!! So cool I never did that before and it worked!!!!!! Love my Dark Devil!!! 8/24 2 pm Switched to 18 hour lights 8/25 12 hours later and the cotyledon surgery was a success!!! First time I tried that. 10 am, Dark Devil is ALIVE, I got more cotyledon microscope pics and you can see inside, she's a go. 330 pm end of week.

Week 11 flower - day 82 flw - day 140 of cycle Time has come for this beauty. Lemon Cherry pie has a stunning look. The purple color always call attention. The smell is a bit creamy and pie. Full covered in trichomes and nice dense nugs.

12/30/23 - Day 54 - Hello All! I started this week a day early. I wanted to update everyone on something I have been thinking about a lot. Curing. I feel if there was a hole in my growing skills it would be curing. Last grow there was more than I had anticipated. I was not set up for curing 1 lb. I threw in an audible at the last minute. It worked out but I know I can improve with some trial and error and hands-on experience. So after reading a ton, and going off of some of my prior builds for drying, I came up with this design. I have a controller that will turn the air on and will run when the contents inside the box hit whatever RH% I want to set it at. I think the first week I will set it for 78%RH, then every couple of days go down a % until I hit 62%. The thought is that if the bucket gets above the set RH% then the air will kick on and distribute air across the buds until the RH% is back down to where you want it. It will force the humidity out. I won't need to worry about burping. It will happen on its own.... in theory. Ill update tomorrow with some pictures after the water change. 12/31/23 - Day 55 - Everything is looking good. The water change completed this morning while I was in the shower. Its adding nutes now and will do so over the next hour or so. She is starting to get stinky. I had to add the extra carbon filter to the room. I've got some pics up top of that. Happy New Year! Next time I post it will be in 2024! Have a great night and be safe! Dont drink and drive, your life and anyone else involved in an accident is too important! C' YA! 1/4/24 - Day 58 - I have been thinking of trimming her for a while.... I got a comment on the bushy-ness and I got self-conscious and gave her a trim. Lol I have been going bath and forth for a while and that gave me the push to give her a little trim. She looks great and is growing really quickly. Ill update with more pics as it goes along.

The plants seem pretty strong and resilient, have a interesting smell. The buds are very different from a plant to another in shape and trycome production. I had to cut them early because of the high heat, but the majority of the trycomes were milky.

4/5: Took 4 cuttings from the shortie 4/12: All 4 are rooted and growing! 5/1: Transplanted from 1gallon pots to 5 gallon pots. 5/3: Decided to grow one of them in my tiny tent and the other 3 will go outdoors. 5/4: Took 2 of them outdoors under the 270w and sunshine. 5/6: Trained all of them today and fed some boomerang along with the kelp, molasses, big bloom, and silica. Foliar fed and took the last one outdoors. The one in the tent is really flourishing! 5/7 - 5/17: Excellent growth! The supplemental lights are making all the difference.👍 Did some more training on all of them early in the week. The one in the closet is spreading out nicely and budding up pretty quickly...but what's very cool is that all 4 clones outdoors are flowering?!?!? I sure hope they go ahead and finish rather than starting to revegetate as the days continue to get longer. Much rain for the past few days, but it let up long enough for me to install another 200w of waterproof 3000k LED lights a couple of feet above them. Very intense lighting, great bang for the buck. So now, I've got 350w of 3000k and 120w of 6500k in the outdoor garden. That's gonna have to do it, as I also am using 1400w in my indoor gardens, plus a/c..bills are getting ridiculous. 5/18 - 5/28: The clone in the tent is still stacking up really well. I guess the ones outdoors are too, but next to the seedling plants, they seem puny. Many buds though... Since they decided to flower early, I sprayed them all down with a product that is loaded with hormones and auxins and stuff that's supposed to retard vertical growth and promote branching. It's also supposed to speed arvest time by as much as a week. I hope they can finish before the summer solstice (June 21), otherwise they might try to reveg instead of finishing.. Hopefully it helps keep them from stretching so much that I'll have to supercrop them. Their mamma was a shortie, so they really shouldn't get too tall anyway. I also foliar fed them several times this week with something called MicroLife Maximum Blooms, Pow! They love the stuff! 5/28 - 5/31: I did some training on a two of the outdoor clones early in the week between rain showers, and foliar fed with Microlife maximum bloom formula. She was looking a little N deficient, so I assume the dry amendments have petered out. They were dry enough, so I top-fed her with another couple tablespoons of cavern culture and on the 31st. I gave them big bloom, tiger bloom, grow big, beastie bloomz, silica, endoboost, signal, humic acid, liquid kelp/fish emulsion, and liquid molasses. The indoor clone is looking awesome. I fed her heavily on the 30th. It just feels so strange that I'll be harvesting outdoor photos in June!?! That's it for week 8- 6/1 - 6/8: Early in the week I gave them about a half gallon of water with liquid molasses, cal-mag, silica, and beastie bloomz only. I foliar fed them a couple of times during the week, right at daybreak. I fed them on Saturday, the 6th..about a gallon each..beastie bloomz, microlife maximum blooms, cal-mag, humic acid, grow big, big bloom, sweet & sticky, and signal. They are looking very good..buds galore. The indoor clone got the same nutes, but on different days. She's also covered in buds, and they are beginning to fatten up.👍 6/9-7/4: Busy with other gardens, so not many updates... Indoor clone got to spend the last 2 weeks of her life in my closet under the quantum boards and UVB. I harvested and washed her buds on 6/28, let her hang dry and weighed and jarred her up on the 4th of July. She came in a 111g of cola and 45g of lower bud with only about 5g of larf. Nice!👍 She smells just like her mommy and has the same uber-dense buds. She was topped, so the buds aren't as mighty as the mamma's, but much more plentiful.👌 Outdoor clones: I had a massive spider mite attack, and during the same week, I had a grasshopper invasion...I lost a few plants, one of which as a FFT1 clone. I had just harvested my autos and my indoor clones from the closet, so I moved the remaining two clones in under the quantum boards. I treated them for spider mites several ways for several days and have given them much TLC. Hopefully their buds fatten up some more. They stanky, but they kinda slim... 7/11: I harvested the last two clones tonight. So sticky!!! I washed them and hung them to dry.

7/26: Last defoliation for about 4 weeks. Looking good and thick. LST is basically over and I'm going to let this plant do what it wants from here on out. I pulled some stems away a tad more so they grow out of any shadows. Bam! 7/27: Added my Google Home Mini so the girls can listen to classical all day long. 7/28: Pistils are tiny on plant 1, but the other 2 are growing rapidly. 7/29: Ordered a 600w ViparSpectra to add to the grow tent, can't wait. Also ordered some sticky traps. The gnats are not really affecting the plant, (never enough to cause major problems) but I just hate them. They seem to be coming from my shop-Vac (for run-off). I let it dry out, as it never stays full of water. I assume they are attracted to it regardless because of the moisture. I have now moved the shop vac further away from the grow tent and will have sticky traps installed 7/30. 7/30: Day 33. Going well. They love Mozart. Pistils FINALLY on every plant. 7/31: Got the new 600w ViparSpectra in, it's bright... this was a good idea. 600w @ 24inches, 450w @ 20inches 8/1: Pistils on all plants. Pre-flower stretch is real. The new light changed everything. Plant 1 taking half a gallon now.
