Sorry for the long time no update. Work got busy and I haven’t had the time to update this. Flower has gone pretty smoothly and the girls are getting ready to finish up. I have 3 bubba pupils in the tent at the moment, with a reservation privada purple wreck, freedom of seeds Godberry, and a serious seeds AK-47. The bubba pupil phenotypes look to be all the same. Low yielding with some extremely resinous quality buds. The smell is funky and grapey. The bubba pupil buds look like they’ll be all finished up in about 1 week to 10 days. Most of the trichomes are milky, and I have yet to spot any that have turned amber. The purple wreck is starting to purple out and probably has 2 weeks and some change left. The Godberry is probably the most resinous plant, and looks like it will be the second heaviest yielder next to the AK-47. The resin on the Godberry is extremely fruity, and leaves your fingers smelling like a bowl of fruit loops after plucking a few fan leaves. The AK-47 is the fattest bitch of them all. Big colas everywhere across its canopy and they’re falling over because I did not install a trellis on this grow. The AK-47 has an old school funk to it, and has around 5% amber trichomes. I’m thinking I will start to flush her at the start of week 8 (in 3 days) and let her finish up at a full 8 weeks.

Happy Easter Everyone! Time for an update During week 10 NEW LIGHT installed!! ViparSpectra XS2000. So excited! I think the plants are a little shocked from the change in light but hopefully they recover just fine. This week 3 of the plants definitely started showing some issues I have never had before. I started noticing rust spots on the upper top leaves of the plants which I believe was the consequence of the following... A.Nutrient lockout B. Soil PH too low from over fertilization C. Soil PH being too low due to the peat moss in the growing medium. I have purchased dolomite lime as an organic alternative to properly balance soil PH for my next grow. I did do a light flush with PHd water at 6.5. Plan for week 11 Going to be adding some Calcium to the soil during next watering to see if that helps new growth on the plants (Tuesday) At this point I will be just keeping an eye on more rust spots forming on the leaves. I have backed off on adding more P & PK at this time because I think I over fertilized last time. I am learning a lot still with every week of this grow. I know now how to dial in the nutrients and better amending soil first. Since my soil has peat moss I think that had a lot to do with the acidity as it breaks down. Really hoping these girls continue to finish out okay! Thinking that they will take the full 14/15 weeks at this point.

Hey Farmers , it’s your friendly barn rat BONEY ! Just hanging fire this week . Having a bit of a time with my one purple kush plant that’s located directly in the middle of my tent . That one has been a struggle , keeps looking like a nitrogen deficiency to me . All I’ve been doing is hitting it with a foliage spray of one tbsp of Epsom salts to a gallon of rain water . At the start of the week I watered with rain water with a mixture of cantaloupe and brown sugar that had been previously fermented to a 1:1 ratio .

👑 Godfather OG – Pheno B Week 8 | Letting Her Shine Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! Sometimes a weekly update is full of changes. Sometimes there is a new technique, a new adjustment, a new feeding strategy, or something that needs correcting. And sometimes... you simply leave the plant alone. This week is one of those weeks. Godfather OG Pheno B doesn't need anything from me right now. She's healthy. She's lush. She's stretching beautifully. She's developing flowers everywhere. So this week, I'm doing something that can sometimes be surprisingly difficult for a grower: I'm letting her be. 🌱 And honestly... I love what I'm seeing. 🌱 Twelve Plants, Twelve Different Stories If this is your first visit to this diary, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure! This entire project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed technique. Every seed received twelve hours of light and twelve hours of darkness from the very beginning of its life. There was no long vegetative period. No attempt to force every phenotype into the same shape. Instead, each plant has been given the same environment and the freedom to reveal what is naturally inside its genetics. And that has created one of the most fascinating parts of this entire project. Twelve plants. Twelve personalities. Godfather OG Pheno B and her sister are a perfect example. They share the same genetic name. They are growing under the same environmental philosophy. They receive the same lighting and feeding strategy. Yet they are very different plants. Similar family traits. Very different personalities. And that's exactly what makes a phenotype hunt so exciting. 👑 She's Getting Tall Godfather OG Pheno B has now reached approximately 160 cm. She's continuing to stretch upward while maintaining that elegant, open structure that has defined her throughout the grow. Her branches remain nicely spaced. Her canopy is naturally open. And there is still plenty of light finding its way through the plant. She's not trying to become a giant bush. She's doing something much more graceful. She's building herself upward. And the further she goes, the more curious I become about where this structure will eventually take her. 🍃 That Beautiful Green One of the first things that catches my eye when I look at her is her colour. She's lush. That rich, healthy green is still present throughout the plant, and the foliage looks strong and well supported. The leaves are beautifully formed, the stems are holding themselves confidently, and the entire plant has that unmistakable look of a phenotype that is comfortable in her environment. There is no reason for me to interfere. No reason to force a shape. No reason to remove something simply because I can. She's telling me she's happy. So I'm listening. 🌸 Flowers Slowly Taking Their Place The flower development continues beautifully. Fresh white pistils are still dominating the flowers, while the individual flower sites are becoming increasingly obvious along the branches. We're past the stage where they're just tiny beginnings. Now you can really start to see the architecture of the future colas. They're still young. They're still building. But they're there. And that's what makes this stage so enjoyable to photograph. Every week reveals another layer. A little more structure. A little more resin. A little more flower. A little more personality. Nature doesn't rush. It just keeps building. 💧 No Changes — Just Consistency This week I made no major interventions with Godfather OG Pheno B. No training. No defoliation. No structural changes. No attempt to redirect her. She's adapting beautifully, growing naturally, and continuing to develop under the same conditions. Sometimes consistency is the technique. And at this point, I genuinely believe the best thing I can do is allow her to continue doing what she's already doing so well. 🍽️ Feeding This Week The feeding program this week consisted of: Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L Power Buds – 1 ml/L Green Sensation – 1 ml/L Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Lemon Kick – 0.03 ml/L, when required for pH adjustment pH Plus – 0.03 ml/L, when required for pH adjustment The solution was kept consistent with the overall flowering strategy of the room. No dramatic changes. No chasing numbers. Just giving her what she needs and allowing the plant to decide what to do with it. 💡 Light From Above & Below The Future of Grow LED Black Series 600W continues providing the primary light source for the project. And underneath the canopy, the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting continues helping illuminate those lower flowering sites. This is particularly interesting with a phenotype like Godfather OG Pheno B. She's tall. She's open. She's creating flower sites at different levels throughout the plant. So rather than expecting every photon to arrive from directly above, the under-canopy lighting gives those lower areas some additional support. I'm especially curious to see how those lower flowers develop as we move deeper into flowering. 🌡️ Environmental Conditions The environment continues to remain stable this week. Current recorded conditions include: 🌡️ Day temperature: 29°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC/TDS reading: approximately 2.0 mS/cm 💦 Nutrient solution temperature: 24°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 21°C 🌬️ CO₂: 639 ppm 💧 Watering: approximately 1.3 L per plant / 24h ? Pot size: 15 L 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 The numbers remain steady, and more importantly, the plant looks like she agrees with them. 📸 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs are probably the best representation yet of what makes this phenotype special. The full-plant images show just how tall and elegant she has become. The close-ups reveal those beautiful early flowers covered in fresh white pistils. And then there are the leaves... Deep green, healthy, beautifully structured leaves that almost look too perfect to touch. This is one of those plants where photography makes me stop for a moment. You look at the whole plant and see the structure. Then you get closer and suddenly there is an entirely different world happening inside it. Tiny flowers. Tiny trichomes. New pistils. Veins running through enormous fan leaves. It's all happening simultaneously. 🔮 Where Is She Going? This is the part I'm genuinely curious about. I don't know exactly where Godfather OG Pheno B is going to take us. And I don't want to predict too much. She's already shown me that she's different from her sister. She has her own architecture. Her own rhythm. Her own way of expressing the genetics. And now I'm simply interested in seeing what happens when we give her more time. The stretch will eventually slow. The flowers will continue building. Those young calyxes will begin stacking and swelling. And somewhere along that journey, this elegant green plant will start becoming something much heavier and more defined. For now... I'm happy to let her surprise me. 👑 Let Her Be There is something beautiful about reaching a point in a grow where you realize: You don't need to do anything. She's not asking for intervention. She's not asking to be reshaped. She's not asking to be corrected. She's simply growing. Tall. Green. Healthy. Beautiful. And completely herself. So this week, there is no big technique. No dramatic change. No grower's ego trying to improve what doesn't need improving. Just observation. Just consistency. And a little bit of admiration. Because sometimes the best way to grow a plant... is to let the plant grow. 💚 💚 Thank You Thank you once again for following another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure. This project continues teaching me something I already knew but appreciate more with every week: Genetics have personalities. Two plants can share the same name and still tell completely different stories. Godfather OG Pheno B is writing hers right now. And I can't wait to see how the next chapters unfold. A special thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can share, learn, and inspire one another. 👑 Zamnesia for the genetics making this phenotype journey possible. 🌱 Plagron for providing the nutrients supporting the plants throughout their development. 💡 Future of Grow LED for the powerful lighting driving this garden. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable and controlled environment. ✨ Lumiflora for the under-canopy lighting helping bring additional light to the lower flowering sites. And finally, thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, sharing knowledge, asking questions, and enjoying this journey with me. Every interaction makes documenting this project even more rewarding. I'll see you all next week to find out what this beautiful lady decides to become. Until then... Growers Love and happy growing, everyone! 🌱👑💚

Started a little training this week. This plant is pretty bushy with tight nodes. Will be doing some more training and a little defoliation over the next week to get her ready for flower. Other than that, just watching and waiting

La Kosher Kush de la derecha abajo, tiene las hojas más finas y es más alta, las otras 3 Kosher Kush tienen las hojas más gruesas, la del medio abajo tiene un poco de color morado en el apical. Las Kandy Kush se parecen bastante, un poco más altas la de los laterales, pero se las ve bastante bien. Las Lemon Krystal son pequeñas y no se nota mucho, pero la del centro izquierda, tiene las hojas un poco más anchas. Si os fijáis en la de abajo izquierda, tiene una planta pequeñita al lado que es la anterior 1024 que se quedo una ahí en la tierra y la otra la saqué y la puse en una maceta de cactus, que también ha germinado, pero les ha costado, por eso están fuera y tenemos las Lemon Krystal, en el próximo trasplante, la sacare y la pondré en alguna maceta por el patio. Se han trasplantado a maceta de 6L.

Battered & bruised. Give her another week in 14 then next week its 10/14. Nature uses: Mass Flow (Barometric Pumping): This refers to the bulk movement of air through soil pores caused by pressure differences. Fluctuations in barometric pressure (high and low pressure fronts) and wind speed over the surface create these pressure differentials, which can force air in or out of the soil. This is how soil "breathes" so to speak. Barometric pressure fluctuations can cause day-to-day variations in gas emissions by a factor of 20 to 35 times, a dynamic response that highlights its importance in the overall carbon cycle. Indoor growers use: Negative pressure can replicate the effects of barometric pumping by creating pressure differentials that induce air to flow in and CO2 and nitrogen out in a controlled manner. Carbon dioxide is released by microorganisms when they eat sugars, when there is no mass flow in a cycle/system where microorganisms are releasing CO2 from eating sugars, the CO2 accumulates in the medium, leading to several significant effects: cut a long story short, the lack of mass flow prevents essential gas exchange, causing the waste product (CO2) to become a self-inhibiting factor that limits the microbial activity and can eventually kill the organisms. Increasing the amount of carbon in a soil increases its moisture retention, an often-overlooked detail that often ends up around the 4th week of flower, people wondering why hypoxia occurred. Around 40% of all the carbon captured is exuded into the soil to feed microorganisms and converted to chemical energy; CO2 accumulates. This is why it's required if you want to reuse the soil. CO2 is a very stable molecule, sitting at a "bottom of the potential energy well". A significant amount of energy is required to break its strong bonds and convert it into a higher-energy, more useful molecule (like a fuel). Converting CO2 back into fuels requires the same amount of energy released during its original combustion (due to the conservation of energy), which often makes the process energy-intensive and expensive. Therein lies the key, 90% of the air that enters the tent, enters through the rootzones, up and through the underside of plant canopy, air comes in but all the CO2 accumulates in bottom half of the tent due to its density. The exhaust linked to rh keeps a constant negative pressure that links to the rate of cellular respiration performed at night. Come morning the compensation point is upwards of 1500pmm by morning. 300 dollar grow light on its 15th grow. The real star of the show is the 14000btu Portable ac unit.

This week she's exploded in growth I've done some LST I've used pipe cleaners to spread her out and pulled down some branches, the marshydro TSW-2000 is on 75% . living soils organic amendments are doing the job I've not used any liquid ferts or anything apart from a tiny bit of black strap molasses and happy with results so far

Hi guys So wer on week 9 of flower and I have just started ripen by general hydroponics GHE, never use this before but herd good things about it, I just want it to get a early fade as I don't want the trichomes degrading. Pheno 1 is starting to fade natraul and is well on its way, buds are dense sticky and are falling over due to weight. Pheno 2 has started its fade and buds are just as dense there just bigger and the same with pheno 3 its just lacking the fade to be harvested for my liking. Humidity and temps are good and all is going well. I will update in few days once the ripner takes affect 😁 Happy growing guys 👌💪💚 Hi guys just and update....Next Wednesday is chop day! FINALLY chop days come around 🙈🤣🤣🤣 i really can't wait now, buds flopping over here n there, swelling, stinking, stickiness everywhere lol. Thanks for all your comments and likes 💚💚💚 i cant wait to impress you with my next run and diary, I got something special for you guys, a limited edition, only 500 packs released 😊. Message for more info on my next run. Full nutrient line up, genetics and light and equipment to be confirmed. Day 59 of flip and day 5 of ripner. Hi guys the ladys are doing really well as you can see and starting to show me there true colours 💜💚💜💚. This is not a sponsored grow in anyway, I paid for everything for this set up. I am giving you a personal review as a customer who got these things to use. I highly recommend everything I used and as a first time photo seed grower and scrogger I have done brilliant and if it wasn't for good quality products I think I would of struggled lol so shout out to @marshydro @acinfinity @biobizz and @simplysouvenirs @ghe Your products produce good quality and nice environments for growing top quality meds 👌👍

Week 6 Dec. 9 - Dec. 15, 2019 Dec. 11, 2019 They were moved into the tent late in week 5. They took a couple of days to get back to normal... had some drooping leaves for a couple of days... ended up raising the light to 24", it started out at 18". Continued to LST and some defoliating. Late last week I broke the main stem of ZK #3 attempting to train it toward the edge of the pot. It was hanging by a thread... freaked the hell out, grabbed the closest tape to me, you'll see that in the pic lol. It was a metal tape for duct work hehe. Noticing as the babys get further into flower they are getting THIRSTY, I'm up to watering them about .5 gallon a day. You'll see in the pics I LST'd 2 plants the same and one differently. Regarding this strain I'm not sure what method a working better.

Hola estimados. Gracias a Dios todo bien esta semana, el jueves 07 su primer día 12/12, hoy ya mostrando su preflora, el riego foliar con cannaboost hizo que este proceso fuese rápido (a mi parecer). Así que justo hoy comenzamos a contabilizar las semanas para ver de cuantas semanas son de floración. Hoy hice una desfoliación. El riego intercalado entre los dos bases que uso, foliar 3 veces por día de cannaboost, hoy inoculando trichodermas, y mañana el riego con el mismo ec que he venido regando, ya que desfoliamos, y esa subida de EC que siempre aconsejan las tablas de cultivo, no será necesaria, ya que la energía producida se distribuirá entre menos hojas, y lo restante se va al desarrollo de las flores. Solo usaré el feeding grow dos veces mas, una mañana y otra para la siguiente desfolación. Eso ha sido esta semana de encierro, la ventaja dedicarle tiempo a esto y obviamente compartir con la familia. Se les quiere a todos, que mi Señor Jesucristo bendiga sus cultivos y sus vidas. Genesis 1:19
