17.05. I don't have anything special to say, of course the weather is terrible... it's 6-7 at night, 15-16 during the day, so they're inside... the temperature inside is 20-21 during the day, at night from 15 to 17 when it's this cold... the plants were exactly 3 weeks old yesterday, today they entered the fourth week and most likely they will wait inside for the fifth week as well because the weather is terrible and there is no point in transplanting yet. Stay High!

📆 Semana 6 Durante esta sexta semana, la planta continúa recuperándose del estrés sufrido durante la evacuación. Aunque todavía presenta algunas hojas amarillentas, mantiene una estructura fuerte y las nuevas puntas muestran buen desarrollo. La mayor regularidad en los riegos, normalmente un día sí y otro no, está ayudando a recuperar progresivamente su vigor. A pesar de haber pasado nuevamente tres días sin agua, la respuesta ha sido positiva. ⚡ EC: 1.2–1.3 💧 pH: 6.2–6.5 🌡️ Agua: 20–23°C 🌫️ Humedad: 50–60% 💡 PPFD: Luz solar exterior 🌡️ Temp. ambiente: 20–32°C 🔥 Nota: La recuperación avanza bien y la planta mantiene una estructura muy fuerte. Ahora toca seguir con constancia y dejar que termine de recuperar su vigor. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno A Week 5 | Full Steam Ahead One of the most rewarding parts of documenting an entire phenotype hunt is watching every individual plant write its own story. Even though this lady shares the same room as several of her sisters, she’s following her own timeline with complete confidence. Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, this project follows multiple phenotypes under identical environmental conditions using the 12/12 From Seed method. Instead of forcing flowering by changing the light schedule, every plant receives 12 hours of light from the day she germinates, allowing each phenotype to decide for itself when it’s ready to reproduce. Cash Express Pheno A has made her decision. There are no doubts anymore… Flowering has officially begun. ⸻ 🌼 The First Flowers This week the plant truly announced the beginning of her reproductive stage. Fresh white pistils are now appearing across every growing tip, marking the first real flower sites. Those tiny white hairs are far more than just pretty decorations. Each pistil is part of the female flower and serves as the structure that would naturally receive pollen in nature. In an indoor sinsemilla grow, however, they become the foundation for the beautiful resin-covered buds we’re all hoping to harvest later. It’s always one of my favourite moments in a grow. The transition from “plant” to “flowering plant” has officially started. Although she’s still compact, every day now brings noticeable changes as the flowering sites become more defined. ⸻ 💧 AutoPot Life Like her Blueberry Muffin sister growing beside her, this phenotype has now fully transitioned onto the AutoPot irrigation system. Instead of watering from the top every day, the plants now feed themselves whenever they need moisture. At the heart of the system is the AquaValve. This clever little mechanical valve keeps a shallow reservoir inside each tray, automatically opening and closing as the plant drinks. Once the tray is empty, fresh nutrient solution flows in again, creating a continuous wet-and-dry cycle without electricity or timers at each pot. It allows the roots to decide when to feed rather than relying on my watering schedule. So far… She’s absolutely loving it. ⸻ 🍽️ Feeding & A Small Observation This week’s reservoir was prepared using: • Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L The reservoir remains intentionally simple for AutoPot use, allowing the solution to stay stable while circulating continuously. During this week’s inspections I also noticed something worth documenting. Several older fan leaves are beginning to show a gentle loss of colour. Nothing dramatic. No burnt tips. No rapid deterioration. Just a subtle lightening that suggests she’s beginning to ask for slightly more nutrition as flowering accelerates. Rather than immediately assuming a deficiency, I prefer making small adjustments and watching how the plant responds. For that reason I increased the EC slightly this week. Now the plant gets the opportunity to tell me whether that adjustment is enough. Growing is often less about reacting quickly… …and more about listening carefully. ⸻ 🌿 Environment The flowering room continues operating under stable conditions. • Day temperature averaged 31.1°C • Night temperature remained around 25°C • Solution temperature stayed near 21.6°C • Root zone remained approximately 21°C • Relative humidity averaged 72% • Atmospheric CO₂ measured roughly 639 ppm The humidity may appear a little high, but at this early flowering stage I’m still comfortable maintaining these levels while the plants continue stretching and building new flower sites. As flowering progresses and the buds begin gaining density, humidity will gradually come down to create an even safer environment for resin production and flower development. Everything follows the plan. ⸻ 📸 Behind This Week’s Photos This week’s gallery tells a very exciting story. The close-up photographs capture the explosion of fresh white pistils appearing from nearly every node, confirming that flowering is now fully underway. The side profiles show a compact but extremely healthy structure, while the overhead shots reveal an even canopy that should make excellent use of the flowering light over the coming weeks. Some of the photographs also document the slight paling of a few fan leaves. Rather than hiding these moments, I like including them because they remind us that plants constantly communicate. Sometimes they’re simply asking for a little more. Learning to recognise those conversations is part of becoming a better grower. (And yes… eagle-eyed viewers may notice the photo label accidentally says crash instead of cash. That’s entirely my mistake and will be corrected in the next update. Even diaries have typos sometimes! 😄) ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should be one of the most exciting stages yet. I expect the flowering sites to begin stacking more aggressively as the stretch continues. We’ll also be watching closely to see how the increased EC influences the slight leaf discoloration. If the colour stabilises, we’ll know the adjustment was enough. If not, the plant will simply tell us she needs a little more. Either way… She’ll write the next chapter, and I’ll keep listening. ⸻ 💚 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this journey. Whether you’ve been here since Germination Week or you’ve only just discovered this diary, your support, questions, discussions and shared experiences are what make documenting these grows so rewarding. Special thanks to: 💚 GrowDiaries for giving growers around the world a place to learn from one another. Zamnesia for providing the Cash Express genetics that continue to reveal their unique personality week after week. 🌱 Plagron for the nutrition program supporting every stage of this adventure. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering consistent lighting throughout the entire room. ? AutoPot for letting these plants feed themselves naturally through one of the simplest yet smartest irrigation systems I’ve ever used. And finally… Thank you to every grower, follower, supporter, critic, and curious visitor who stops by these diaries. Every interaction makes this journey richer, and I’m grateful to share it with all of you. Growers Love and see you next week, where we’ll find out if the extra nutrition satisfies her growing appetite—and watch those first flowers begin transforming into what we all know is coming. 🌱🚂💚

2020-08-16 End of week 8 of flowering! Nutrients are still stable with the same amounts (EC=1600/1200). Gonna ride them out until the end of the growth. Gonna start monitoring the trichomes daily so I can figure out when to flush. They look about 100% milky!

My biggest harvest yet from a single plant! Closing in on 1 pound per plant which is very exciting. I could have vegged this plant longer but it still takes forever to mature. It never produces amber trichomes in my hands and just stops growing even though it's still consuming nutrients. This is the nicest LST/topping job that I have done yet and every branch produced a massive cola. I lost one cola to white mold but I have busted up the rest and inspected everything so I think it was an isolated incident. It smells amazing and it's gonna cure in the jars now! Thanks for following along on my 3rd White Widow run. I am going to be focusing on autoflowers

2 weeks max then its time, the colours are fading now. This plant is in an autopot i only fill up the reservoir. I do see she drinks way less now. After this water i feed with only ripen in it lol. I cant believe how easy this was i havent touched the plant once or waterings

this plant has a tendancy to throw out lime green leaves which throws you off a bit.. its quite a sensitive plant to ph im thinking. make sure you get the soil right. given the sheer density of buds it wants to grow on the colas i would suggest that its best to use a big light on this plant and if you are going to scrog properly space the budsites otherwise it just forms one big clump of buds in small plants.. hard to get light to everywhere.. genetics wise though damn! very quick vigorous growth, chunky looking white pistils, and looooooots of leaf production. thanks california and fastbuds

Okay so im just impulsively training this plant. Cut a hole in a 7 gal pot and transplanted. The plant got stressed out from me working it through the hole in the side of the pot. She's recovering nicely. This might be a waist of time but I enjoy spending time in the tent 😎

27/02/19 - Cant wait for these to be done as I’ve never had gelato before so I feel like I’m missing out 😂 but yeah other than I let them stretch abit taller than I usually prefer it’s all going well, new genetics/nutrients/medium seem to be doing the job. 02/03/19 - Just transplanted all into their final pot, just in time I think as it looked like the roots were starting to circle at the bottoms of the pot, sprinkled half a tea spoon of Mykos on each hole prior to the transplant & fed them 2.5 litres each. I was going to saturate the whole pot but I’ll do that next feeding.
