Buds are bulking up and getting denser, looking nice and frosty. Had to tie a few branches as they were getting top heavy. No problem though they are going strong💪. Zkittles OG is standing out and has a nice structure I would definately recommend. Few more weeks then ripen and flush.

Semana del 9 al 15 de septiembre 2024. Las Positronics auto aun no Entran a Floración, y ya van bastante avanzadas, mientras las otras, unas van muy flacas y otras si van bastante gordillas.

Así es como empezamos la tercera semana,seguimos con humedad alta pero la vamos controlando.. Estos días da buen tiempo la humedad en la calle será mucho más baja así podré meter aire sin tanta humedad.. De momento todo bien en el cultivo ningún problema hasta la fecha. Ya podéis ver,y comentar sobre algo que veáis que yo no! Como dicen! Ven veinte ojos mejor que dos! 🖖 Día 12 Último fungicida prevención mutritis,hongos humedad. Primer riego foliar hormonas producción de flores. 🌹 Día 13 Nada en especial solo observar si veo algún cambio tras las hormonas,aún no veo grandes observaciones fuera de lo natural del paso de los días. En el día de mañana por lo que me recomendó el fabricante se verán los resultados a la vista! Comentar que seguimos con la iluminación al 100x100 de capacidad Marshydro sp3000 x2 Hero led Ignator t720 Yxo led 60w ir+un espectro completo En la siguiente semana me llega el nuevo driver de philips para poder conectar la lámpara de IR que pude adquirir a Yxo nuevamente! Lampara led espectro completo + IR 70w . Me vendrá muy bien para el pequeño espacio de la puerta que necesita más iluminación para poder desarrollar bien esas dos plantas,de la entrada. La humedad fue cosa del pasado. Evite el uso de desumificador eléctrico añadiendo varios de sales,deciros que funcionan muy bien no dan un control exacto pero mantienen una humedad interior estable para todo el periodo de floración! 50% de humedad lo demuestra! Hoy añadi un poco más de sustrato. 110 litros exactamente sobre la cama de cultivo que tenía de topcrop con humus de lombriz,tierra diatomeas y alimentada con npk. Después de eso tengo en mi cama de cultivo 810 litros de sustrato para mis 44haze. 💐 Saludos Día 14 Anulado el intractor,ya que el propio extractor mete aire fresco por las rendijas de ventilación.. En lo largo de la noche iré viendo el resultado en datos.. Ya coloque los soportes para la nueva iluminación que en estos días llega su driver de sustitución E visto que algunas plantas en estos dos días están en 67-70cm.. Ya colocado el sistema de riego para evitar más pisadas en el cultivo ya que algunas se realentizaron por pisar encima de sus raíces.. Le e metido una pequeña poda de bajos para airear más la zonas bajas del cultivo. Pequeño riego de folacion con remedio de agua azúcar para dos que estaban más estresadas.

Giorni 28 Che spettacolo di odori!!! Le Rainbow sono lime/zkittlez/uva e ti impregnano le mani e ti viene voglia di staccarle e fumarle ora. Le due Pink sanno di gas/pesca (una mi ricorda l'erba più buona che ho mai fumato e cioè l' Oz Kush). Anche se una ha avuto problemi e l'ho dovuta sciacquare (#2) ora sembra stare meglio anche se alzando i fertilizzanti il colore è ancora un po' giallo. Le tre Barbara'Pie posso solo dire anche qui frutta allo stato puro ma con qualcosa ancora che non riesco a capire. Due sono molto simili l'altra è più cicciotta. La Baker Delight piena di resina e odora leggermente di biscotti ma è la pianta più indietro di tutte. Ci vediamo settimana prossima e ricorda di spendere il tuo tempo nella ricerca del seme e che nessuno ti regala niente di buono 😏

Start of week 9 and everything is filling in nicely, 11 more days and it’s harvest time. Not much to report except the smell, fruity, berries, sweet and sour. except pheno 6 the sativa dominate that one smells like grape fruit / hazy.

Since last week I've been doing the normal watering only when they ask and watering once a week with top crop top veg fertilizer and they've responded very well and both are already in 11L airpots that I transplanted during this week

D78/FD50 - Apologies, a week late on my report. So, the Cookies are being a bit of a dick really!!! The Cheese is striking them and trying to take a few wee bits here and there to save the crop but dont know if I am being agressive enough...Time will tell!!! Tried a bit of Cinnamon around the affected buds and it does appear to stop the rot on contact but don't know how it will impact them. Will continue to monitor... **Update** D84/FD56 - Cookies have become a real problem...Partial harvest time!!! Taking what looks to be "ripe enough" off the girls and leaving some lower buds to mature...hopefully they've not been too impacted. Had some real obvious ones that had to go and though I had some nice keepers, until I started trimming them down for the box to dry and random buds in the bunch had wee bits of grey mold at the stem!! Mild but just not doing it!!! Total bastard!!! Lost about 3-4oz (expected dry weight) easy!!! So no trim kept, all binned or burnt! All a bit of a ballache but, what can you do!!! Anyway, happy growing all!!! 💪

Update week 4 Bloom

💎 Black Diamond Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 11 | When Every Cola Looks Like a Main Cola 💎👑🔥 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 Okay... I think Black Diamond Pheno A has officially reached the point where I don't even know which cola I'm supposed to call the main one anymore. 😂💎 Because honestly... LOOK AT HER. Everywhere I look, there's another beautiful flower. Another tall, developed cola. Another structure that looks like it could have been the main top. And another reason to stop in front of this girl and just stare for a moment. She's big. She's beautiful. She's impressive. She's making herself noticed. And she's doing it without needing any special treatment compared with the rest of the room. Same room. Same environment. Same lighting upgrades. Same nutrition adjustments. Same 12/12 schedule. And yet... Black Diamond Pheno A has decided to interpret all of that in her own spectacular way. And I absolutely love it. 💎🔥👑 ──────────────────────── 💎 EVERY COLA LOOKS LIKE THE MAIN COLA ──────────────────────── This is probably the easiest way for me to describe what I'm seeing this week. Every cola looks like a main cola. 😂 Normally, when you look at a plant, your eyes naturally find the dominant top. You see the main structure. Then you look around at the side branches. With this girl? I'm having trouble deciding which one deserves the title. Because one catches my eye... Then another. Then another. And suddenly I'm standing there thinking: "Wait a minute..." "Isn't THAT supposed to be the main cola?" 😂💎 She's built such a beautiful distribution of flowering structures that the entire canopy is becoming a collection of major players. And I love that. She's not relying on one star. She's created a whole team of them. 👑👑👑👑 ──────────────────────── 🌿 SHE STILL MAKES HERSELF NOTICED ──────────────────────── Some plants quietly sit in the room. You walk past them. You appreciate them. Then you continue. Black Diamond? No. 😂 She makes herself noticed. Every single time. She's one of those plants where your eyes naturally go toward her. Part of it is the size. Part of it is the structure. Part of it is the amount of flowering she's carrying. And part of it is simply... she has presence. She's big. She's substantial. She's developed. And now that the flowers are becoming increasingly dominant throughout the structure, her personality is becoming even stronger. She's not asking for attention. She's simply impossible to ignore. 💎🌿👑 ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FLOWERS ARE TAKING OVER THE CONVERSATION ──────────────────────── Earlier in the run, we talked a lot about structure. Then we talked about flower formation. Then resin. Then colour. Then weight. Now? The flowers are basically taking over the entire conversation. 😂🌸 They're everywhere. And they're becoming increasingly substantial. The beautiful thing about this phenotype is how consistently she has built throughout her structure. She didn't create one impressive top and leave everything else behind. She's built a whole network of flowering sites. And now those sites are developing into substantial colas. Which brings us back to the problem... How exactly do I choose the main cola? 😂 I don't think I can. So let's just call them all main colas. Problem solved. 💎👑 ──────────────────────── 🔥 A CANOPY FULL OF MAIN COLAS ──────────────────────── There is something incredibly satisfying about seeing this kind of development. You look across the plant... and instead of seeing one obvious dominant flower surrounded by smaller ones... you see a whole collection of developed flowering structures. That's what catches my eye with Black Diamond right now. The canopy has depth. The flowers have presence. The branches have purpose. And the whole plant looks like it's putting every part of that structure to work. She's not wasting much space. She's filling it. And she's doing it beautifully. 🌸🌿💎 ──────────────────────── 💡 SAME ROOM. SAME UPGRADES. HER OWN EXPRESSION. ──────────────────────── And once again, this is where the 8×8 Adventure gets really interesting. We're not changing the rules for Black Diamond. She's sharing the same room as everybody else. The same overall environmental strategy. The same irrigation system. The same nutritional program. The same 12/12 lighting schedule. And now... the same upgraded lighting setup. We've added the two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures. After seeing the initial PPFD was higher than we wanted, we've brought the fixtures down to around: 💡 ~59% power from the plug with approximately: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy and naturally less depending on canopy height and position. Black Diamond is receiving those photons just like the rest of the room. But look at what she's doing with them. She's building. She's stacking. She's developing. She's turning those photons into an entire army of main-cola-looking structures. 😂💎🔥 ──────────────────────── ☀️ MORE PHOTONS. MORE POSSIBILITY. ──────────────────────── I really like what the lighting upgrade has brought to the room. Not because we're trying to force the plants to do something. Quite the opposite. It's about having the capability. We're not running the fixtures flat out just because we can. We're controlling the output. We're finding the level that makes sense for the room. And then we let the plants respond. Black Diamond is certainly responding. She's looking strong. She's looking substantial. And she's continuing to develop beautifully. The artificial sun is there. The photons are there. The plant decides what to do with them. And this girl has apparently decided: "Flowers." Lots of them. 😂💎🌸 ──────────────────────── 🌱 LET THE PLANT DO THE WORK ──────────────────────── This is something I keep appreciating more and more as the run progresses. At this stage... we don't need to be constantly interfering. The framework is established. The plant knows what it's doing. The flowers are developing. And our job becomes much more about observation than intervention. Keep the environment stable. Keep the irrigation consistent. Keep the nutrition appropriate. Keep the air moving. Keep the lights where they need to be. And watch. That's it. Black Diamond doesn't need us to tell her how to grow. She's already made that decision. 😂💎 She's just doing what she does. And she's doing it beautifully. ──────────────────────── 🌿 BIG, BEAUTIFUL & COMPLETELY HERSELF ──────────────────────── At around 169 cm, Black Diamond Pheno A remains one of the substantial girls in this room. She's big. But again... her height isn't what impresses me most anymore. It's what she's doing with that height. The structure. The branches. The flower distribution. The number of developed colas. The way the entire plant seems to have become a flowering machine. That's what makes her special. She's not tall just for the sake of being tall. She's using that architecture. And she's filling it. 💎🌸💚 ──────────────────────── ❄️ THE FROST IS STILL THERE ──────────────────────── And of course... we can't talk about Black Diamond without talking about the frost. ❄️💎 The resin-covered surfaces continue to give her that beautiful crystalline appearance. Get closer... and the story changes again. The flowers aren't just flowers. They're texture. They're resin. They're pistils. They're tiny details. They're little landscapes. And when the light catches everything correctly... she really does shine. Which is probably why the name Black Diamond continues to feel so appropriate. She has that combination of darkness, colour, structure and sparkle that makes her incredibly photogenic. 📸💎❄️ ──────────────────────── 🎨 COLOUR + GREEN + FROST ──────────────────────── Another thing I really appreciate is the combination of colours we're seeing. The green foliage. The developing flower colours. The bright pistils. The white frost. All of it coming together across such a large plant. It creates a really beautiful contrast. And because she has so many flowering structures, there isn't just one place where you see it. It's happening throughout the plant. Everywhere. Another cola. Another angle. Another little section that catches the eye. This girl is basically giving the camera a full-time job. 😂📸 ──────────────────────── 📸 THE PHOTOGRAPHER'S PROBLEM ──────────────────────── Black Diamond is becoming one of those plants where taking photographs becomes a problem. Not because she's difficult to photograph. Because there are too many good things to photograph. 😂 You take the wide shot. "Okay, beautiful." Then you move closer. "Oh, that's a nice cola." Then you see another one. "Wait, this one is even better." Then another. And another. And suddenly... you've been standing there for half an hour. 😂📸💎 That's the fun of this stage. The plant has so much going on that every perspective tells a slightly different story. ──────────────────────── 💎 THE BLACK DIAMOND PERSONALITY ──────────────────────── By now, I think we know who this girl is. She's not shy. She's not trying to hide. She's not trying to be the smallest girl in the room. She's substantial. She's demanding. She's productive. She's beautiful. And she's very comfortable taking up space. 😂💎 She's one of those phenotypes that makes you stop and think: "Okay..." "I see you." And then you walk away... only to turn around and look again. 😂 ──────────────────────── ⚗️ NUTRITION – THE ROOM MOVES TOGETHER ──────────────────────── Just like the rest of the room, we've made the flowering nutrition adjustment. 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.3 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH adjustment as required Current solution parameters are around: ⚗️ pH – ~6.02 ⚡ EC – ~2.14 mS/cm Again... nothing special just for Black Diamond. Same general nutritional strategy. Same room. Same philosophy. And she's responding beautifully. Which is exactly what we want to see. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ WEEK 11 ENVIRONMENT ──────────────────────── The room continues around: 🌡️ Day temperature: ~26.5°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~26°C 💧 RH: ~61% ⚗️ pH: ~6.02 ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm 💦 Nutrient solution: ~25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~25°C 💨 CO₂: ~693 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 💧 Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h Same environment. Same ecosystem. Same room. And Black Diamond continues to show us her own interpretation of it. 💎🌿 ──────────────────────── 🌸 WHEN EVERY COLA LOOKS IMPORTANT ──────────────────────── This is probably what I'll remember most about this week. Every cola looks important. There's no obvious: "Okay, THIS is the main one." Because so many of them have developed enough structure to demand attention. They're all standing there like: "Pick me." 😂 And I'm like: "I can't." So... you're all main colas. Everybody wins. 👑🌸👑🌸👑🌸 ──────────────────────── SAME GENETIC ROOM, DIFFERENT STORIES ──────────────────────── This is also another beautiful reminder of what this whole project is about. We have so many different cultivars and phenotypes sharing the same ecosystem. Some are smaller. Some are taller. Some are faster. Some are slower. Some are extremely compact. Some stretch. Some become incredibly frosty. Some build huge individual flowers. And Black Diamond? She's building a whole army of colas. 😂💎 That's the part I love. We provide the environment. Genetics provide the personality. And then we watch the story unfold. ──────────────────────── 🔍 WHAT AM I WATCHING NOW? ──────────────────────── At this point, I'm not looking for something to fix. I'm looking at development. 🌸 How much more will these colas build? ❄️ How much more resin will develop? 💎 How much more weight will those structures carry? 🌿 How will the foliage continue to evolve? 📸 How many more photographs am I going to take? 😂 The questions are becoming more about watching the plant mature than trying to change anything. And that's a really enjoyable place to be. She's healthy. She's beautiful. She's developing. So... let her work. ──────────────────────── 👑 SHE DESERVES THE SPOTLIGHT ──────────────────────── Sometimes a plant earns the spotlight because something unusual happens. Sometimes because she has a special colour. Sometimes because she suddenly explodes with flowers. And sometimes... she simply keeps being amazing. That's Black Diamond Pheno A this week. She's not necessarily doing something completely different from last week. She's simply continuing to be excellent. And sometimes... that's more than enough. 💎🌿👑 ──────────────────────── 💭 FINAL THOUGHTS – STILL SHINING ──────────────────────── Week 11. Black Diamond Auto Pheno A. And honestly... what can I say? She's still beautiful. She's still big. She's still making herself noticed. She's still developing. She's still covered in beautiful flowers. She's still carrying more and more structure. And now... I'm looking at a plant where practically every cola looks like it could be the main cola. 😂💎👑 I absolutely love it. She's doing exactly what she wants. We're doing exactly what we need to do. The room is stable. The lighting has been upgraded. The nutrition has been adjusted. The photons are flying. And she's doing the rest. That's the beauty of this stage. We don't need to force the story. We just need to document it. And Black Diamond is giving us a hell of a story. 💎🔥🌿 ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU ──────────────────────── Another week. Another chapter. Another beautiful girl showing us exactly why the 8×8 Adventure has been so much fun. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document these journeys, share experiences and learn together. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Black Diamond genetics and for giving us this incredible phenotype to follow. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting the garden. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and giving us the opportunity to explore what this expanded lighting setup can do. 💡💚 Thank you to LumiFlora for helping illuminate those deeper areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable behind the scenes. And, of course... thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by to see what these girls are doing. It genuinely means a lot. 💚 And Black Diamond? This week... you absolutely deserve the spotlight. 💎👑🔥 You're big. You're beautiful. You're frosty. You're stacking. You're developing. You're filling your structure with flowers. And somehow... you've reached the point where every cola looks like a main cola. 😂💎🌸 So let's not overthink it. Let's let her shine. Let's let her keep building. Let's keep the photons flying. Let's keep watching. And let's see what this beautiful girl decides to show us next. Because one thing is certain... Black Diamond Pheno A is not interested in being a background character. She's making herself noticed. And honestly? I'm very happy to give her the spotlight. 💎🌿👑🔥 Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle... where the crowns are temporary, the genetics keep surprising us, and apparently... every cola on Black Diamond wants to be the main cola. 😂💎👑🌸

The start of week 10 is going well. I am monitoring the Nitrogen deficiency and will see how the plants react to the latest feeding. I believe the plants are getting a little light burned. The tallest cola is 5" from the light yikes! Stretch seems to be over. I can't raise my light so I have dimmed the light to 75%. I will watch the plants and see how they respond over this week and go from there. On day 5 of week 10 I applied Cal/mag to address possible cal/mag deficiency and or Nitrogen deficiency (Cal Mag 4-0-0). I applied weekly nutrients(week 5 flower) one day early. I also added Enzyme supplement to reservoir. This week has gone well and the flowers are getting smellier and bigger everyday 😃

Still having issue's.. no fault but my own. I thought my problem was q ph issue but I'm now thinking it to much magnesium.. Anyway... following week I'll flush her and she how she is afterwards.

This garbage plant that was supposed to be an autoflower but was a photoperiod turned hermaphrodite on me. Not a few pollen sacks but tons everywhere. I noticed some pollen on some of the closer plants leaves so I hope it didn't fuck em up. I'm hoping that they are so early in flower that it won't pollinate em FOR EVERYTHING MARS HYDRO VISIT: www.mars-hydro.com www.marshydroled.ca PROMO CODE: rocknroll VISIT THE ALIEXPRESS STORE: @marshydro_aliexpress Instagram: @marshydropenny https://youtube.com/channel/UChU5ZWwNi-DvnO3oWVU3ceA (NEW) STRIVE NUTRIENTS 💪

-SOAKING SEEDS STARTED AT 4:15PM on 4/2/22 All of them sank by the next day with a little stirring of the water - most of them were floating before I stirred the water then they sank & stayed underwater. -PLANTING SEEDS STARTED AT 6PM on 4/3/22 Seedling Starter Soil: 1 Coco Coir Block (hydrated with 12cups aquarium water) About 5 cups Vermiculite 4Tbsp Down To Earth Starter Nutrients Mycorrhizal Fungi Spring Water - watering the hole with mycorrhizal before planting seed & then again after planted. -AFTER THE FIRST SPROUT ON 4/5/22 Turned on seedling clip light to blue only, dimmest setting @ 20%. Keeping light on for 18/6 6am-12pm - 4/6/22 INCREASED BLUE ONLY SEEDLING LIGHT TO 50% It seems like they were slightly stretching for light **watch for light burn on cotyledon leaves** -4/7/22 MORNING INCREASED BLUE ONLY SEEDLING LIGHT TO 100% The plants are stretching even more I increased light to full 100%, it'll have to keep an eye on them & make sure they don't get light burnt or topple over from reaching -4/7/22 AFTERNOON SWITCHED LIGHT TO GIIXER The two tallest plant cotyledon started to droop to the side so I didn't want to take a risk continuing to try the clip light only on blue @ 100%. I have the Gixxer on only veg at a distance of 10" away from the tops of the cotyledon leaves. I also cracked the lid & put an oscillating fan on low just to give them a tiny bit of movement to strengthen their stems because they'll be tall and weaker with stretching. *I tried using a new seedling light & it was a failure - they are now stretching due to that light. I switched back to my trusted seedling light & hoping they'll be back on track.*

10 Wochen sind rum und die Fat Banana hängt jetzt zum Trocknen, ich rechne damit, sie in 5-6 Tagen ins Glas schneiden zu können. Bin schon sehr gespannt, wie viel ich rausbekommen habe, es riecht jedenfalls sehr fruchtig, wie nach Multivitamin Bonbons, mal sehen ob sie nach dem Trocknen auch noch so riecht. Fat Banana Auto von RQS gehört zu meinem ersten Tagebuch, das ich auf Growdiaries gestartet habe. Leider wird das komplette Tagebuch nicht angezeigt, in dem ich Fat Banana, Cookies Gelato und Green Gelato zeige, warum auch immer, selbst der Support konnte mir nicht helfen 🤷🏻‍♂️ Naja deswegen dachte ich mir, ich lasse euch teilhaben an dem Tagebuch und habe die Bilder von vor 2 Jahren aus dem alten Tagebuch hochgeladen. Sie war wirklich sehr angenehm zu Rauchen und ich werde sie wohl bald mal wieder machen 😊

Day 78! I’m so proud of just going for it and actually figuring out I have a geek thumb, I’m obsessed. Also added MXB microbes (organic) for a little boost on uptake 🤗🌱🌱 Day 80! All the buds are connecting 🙏🏼 Huge yield hopefully 💚☺️ Day 83! I’ve increased some of my Nutes and did heavy defoliation
