🌸 Pink Rosay Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 11 💗 Compact. Charming. Frosty. And Still One of My Absolute Favourites. Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And honestly... I don't think I'm going to get tired of saying this. I wish I had more plants like this one. 😂💗 Because every time I look at Pink Rosay Pheno A, I have exactly the same thought: "Why can't they all be this easy?" 😂 She's in full auto mode now. She's growing. She's developing. She's doing exactly what she wants to do. But she's doing it in the most beautifully compact way possible. She's not trying to take over the room. She's not reaching for the ceiling. She's not creating some enormous structure that requires an engineering degree to navigate. She's simply... growing. Beautifully. Compactly. Efficiently. And carrying some absolutely gorgeous flowers. This girl has charm. And the more I watch her develop, the more I appreciate it. 💗🌸✨ ──────────────────────── 🌱 The 8×8 Adventure — Same Room, Different Stories For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure. The idea behind this project is simple: Give twelve different plants essentially the same opportunity... and let them show us what they can do. Same room. Same general environment. Same 12/12 lighting schedule. Same irrigation philosophy. Same nutritional program. Same lighting ecosystem. Same grower. But different genetics. Different phenotypes. Different structures. Different personalities. And Pink Rosay Pheno A continues to be one of the clearest examples of why this experiment is so much fun. Because while some plants use the same environment to become enormous... this girl seems to have decided: "Thank you for all the photons. I'll just make every centimetre count." 😂💗 And I absolutely love that. ──────────────────────── 💗 I Still Wish They Were All Like Her I said it last week. I'm saying it again. And I'll probably say it again next week. I wish I had more plants like this one. 😂 Not because I don't love the big girls. I absolutely do. There is something incredible about seeing a huge plant filling a space with enormous branches and massive flowering structures. Those plants are spectacular. But... they can also be a pain in the ass to manage. 😂 Moving them. Reaching around them. Getting the camera into the right position. Checking everything. Making space. Working around branches. Trying not to knock something over. And then there's Pink Rosay. "Hello, little lady." Pick her up. Move her. Inspect her. Photograph her. Put her back. Done. 😂💗 And somehow... she's carrying flowers that look like they belong on a much larger plant. That's what gets me. ──────────────────────── 🌸 Compact Frame. Huge Flower Presence. This girl is still proving that size doesn't tell the whole story. She's compact. She's manageable. She's easy to work with. But look at those flowers. The formation is beautiful. The buds are developing into substantial, impressive structures. The density is becoming one of her defining characteristics. And the frost? Absolutely on point. ❄️❄️❄️ This is one of those plants where you can look at the overall structure and think: "That's a small plant." Then you look closer... and suddenly: "Wait a minute..." 😂 Because the flowers completely change the perspective. She's not wasting much of her available space. She's putting her energy into building beautiful flowering structures. And I think that's part of the charm of this phenotype. She doesn't need to be enormous to make an impression. She just needs to be herself. And she's doing that extremely well. ──────────────────────── ✨ The Charm of Pink Rosay I used the word "charm" earlier. And I think that's exactly what it is. There's something about this phenotype that makes me smile. Maybe it's the proportions. Maybe it's the compact architecture. Maybe it's those beautiful flowers. Maybe it's the way the buds are developing. Maybe it's the frost. Maybe it's simply the fact that she's so damn easy to love. 😂💗 She's not dramatic. She's not demanding. She's not trying to prove anything. She's just quietly getting on with the job. And somehow... she keeps getting more beautiful. That's a pretty wonderful personality to have in a room full of twelve very different plants. ──────────────────────── ❄️ Frost Is Definitely Showing Up The resin development is another part of this girl that I really enjoy watching. As the flowers continue developing, the frost becomes increasingly obvious. Those little sparkling details start showing themselves everywhere. From a distance, you see the flowers. Get closer... and suddenly the whole thing becomes a completely different world. Trichomes. Resin. Pistils. Calyxes. Sugar leaves. Tiny textures everywhere. This is one of those stages where macro photography becomes especially addictive. 😂📸 Because every time you zoom in, there's another little detail waiting to be discovered. And Pink Rosay gives the camera plenty to work with. ──────────────────────── 📸 A Photographer's Dream I've said this before... but it remains true. Pink Rosay is incredibly easy to photograph. And that's not a small thing when you're documenting twelve different plants. Some plants make you work for the shot. You have to move around them. Find an opening. Move a branch. Change the camera position. Try not to bump into something. 😂 Pink Rosay? She basically cooperates. She's compact enough that I can get around her. Her flowers are accessible. Her structure is easy to understand. And once the camera gets close... she starts telling her own story. Wide shot: "Nice little plant." Closer shot: "Okay..." Macro: "Holy shit, look at that frost." 😂💗❄️ That's exactly what I love about photographing plants. The closer you get, the more complicated and beautiful the story becomes. ──────────────────────── 💡 Still Eating Photons The room continues operating under the same upgraded lighting setup. The Future of Grow Black Series LEDs are providing the main overhead lighting, with the additional fixtures now part of the room's lighting ecosystem. After adding the two extra Black Series 600W fixtures, the initial output was higher than we wanted, so we reduced the power to approximately 59% from the plug. The result? Around 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy, with the intensity naturally decreasing depending on plant height and position. And Pink Rosay? She's using those photons in her own way. Some plants respond to the same environment with enormous vertical growth. Some create wider structures. Some build huge canopies. And this little lady seems to say: "I don't need to be tall. Just give me the photons and watch what I do with them." 😂💗 And honestly... I'm impressed. ──────────────────────── 💡 More Capability Without Chasing Maximum Power One thing I really like about this lighting upgrade is that we don't need to run everything at full power simply because the fixtures are capable of it. Having more lighting capacity gives us flexibility. We can distribute the photons across the room. We can reach the canopy properly. And we can dial the output back to where we actually want it. That's a very different thing from simply turning everything to 100% and calling it a day. The goal is not maximum power. The goal is providing the room with the right lighting environment. And right now, Pink Rosay seems very happy with what she's receiving. A huge thank you again to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series fixtures for us to test in this adventure. 🙏💡 They've added another dimension to the room, and it's fascinating watching all these different phenotypes respond to the same photons in completely different ways. ──────────────────────── 🌱 Nutrition — Another Small Step Forward The nutrition program has also been updated across the room. Terra Bloom has been increased from: 🌸 Plagron Terra Bloom — 2.3 ml/L Alongside: 🌱 Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L ✨ Plagron Green Sensation — 1 ml/L 🍯 Plagron Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH adjustment as required The increased Terra Bloom has brought the solution strength slightly higher, currently around: ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm And Pink Rosay continues looking happy with the program. Again... we're not trying to reinvent the wheel. The environment is stable. The nutrition is consistent. The lighting has been upgraded. The plant is developing beautifully. So our job is mostly to provide the conditions... and let her do the rest. ──────────────────────── ✂️ No Need to Overcomplicate a Good Thing One of the things I appreciate most about Pink Rosay is that she doesn't constantly ask for intervention. The major structural work was already done earlier. She's healthy. She's accessible. Her flowers are visible. Her canopy is manageable. And now? We're mostly observing. There is absolutely no prize for using scissors just because you have scissors. 😂✂️ Sometimes the best thing you can do for a plant is stop trying to find something to do to it. Healthy leaves are still working. Flowers are developing. The structure is functioning. So we let her continue. Water. Nutrition. Light. Environment. Observation. And a little bit of love. That's enough. ──────────────────────── 💧 Week 11 — Same Room, Same Girl, More Flower The room remains stable and the overall strategy is unchanged. Current conditions: 🌸 Flowering: Week 11 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 💡 Future of Grow Black Series LEDs: upgraded setup 💡 Approx. power after adjustment: ~59% from the plug ☀️ Upper-canopy PPFD: ~1,500 🌡️ Day temperature: ~26.5°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~26°C 💧 Relative humidity: ~61% ⚗️ pH: ~6.02 ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: ~25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~25°C 🌬️ CO₂: ~693 ppm 🌱 Pot size: 15 L 💦 Irrigation: ~1.45 L per plant / 24h Same room. Same environment. Same general care. Same upgrades. Different plant. And Pink Rosay continues proving exactly why phenotype variation is so fascinating. ──────────────────────── 🌸 She's Doing Her Own Thing There's something almost funny about watching this girl. She's clearly in auto mode. She's developing at her own rhythm. She's progressing. She's building flowers. She's getting frosty. She's becoming more substantial. But she isn't doing any of it in a dramatic way. She's just... doing it. 😂💗 No giant stretch. No enormous footprint. No "move me or I will take over the tent" attitude. Just: "Here are my flowers. They're getting bigger. They're getting prettier. And yes, I'm going to keep doing this." 😂 I can respect that. ──────────────────────── 🔬 Same Environment. Completely Different Expression. This is one of the parts of the 8×8 Adventure that I never get tired of. We can provide essentially the same environment to all twelve plants... and they interpret it completely differently. Same photons. Same room. Same schedule. Same nutrition. Same irrigation philosophy. And yet one plant stretches. Another stays compact. One builds long branches. Another builds dense clusters. One demands space. Another makes every centimetre count. And Pink Rosay? She's showing us what her particular genetics want to do. Compact. Beautiful. Dense. Frosty. Manageable. Charming. That's her story. ──────────────────────── 💗 One of the Plants I Really Don't Want to End I'm going to be honest... these are the plants that make me wish the diary didn't eventually have to end. 😂 Because she's just so enjoyable to watch. Every week I look at her and think: "Yep. Still love this one." She's not necessarily the biggest plant. She's not trying to win a height competition. She's not trying to dominate the room. But she keeps catching my attention. And maybe that's the most important thing. Because sometimes a plant doesn't need to be spectacular from across the room. Sometimes you get closer... and that's when the magic happens. Pink Rosay is one of those plants. ──────────────────────── 🔭 Looking Ahead And now I'm genuinely curious to see where this little powerhouse takes us. The flower formation is beautiful. The buds are substantial. The frost is impressive. The plant remains compact. And she's continuing to develop in her own unmistakable way. So I'm not going to try to predict the ending. I'm just going to keep watching. Keep photographing. Keep documenting. Keep providing the environment. And let Pink Rosay reveal the final version of herself when she's ready. That's the fun part. We don't need to rush the story. We just need to let her finish writing it. ──────────────────────── ✨ Final Thoughts — Give This Girl Her Spotlight Week 11. And once again... I wish I had more plants like this one. 😂💗 She's compact. She's beautiful. She's easy to manage. She's easy to move. She's easy to photograph. She's developing impressive flowers. Her bud formation is absolutely beautiful. Her frost is on point. And she carries herself with this quiet little charm that I genuinely love. Meanwhile, somewhere else in the room, there are plants that require a navigation system just to walk around them. 😂🌳 And Pink Rosay is sitting there like: "I don't know what their problem is." 😂💗 She's proof that bigger isn't automatically better. Sometimes a smaller plant can be incredibly impressive when she knows exactly how to use the space she's given. And this girl? She knows. She doesn't need another metre of height. She doesn't need a massive footprint. She doesn't need to fill every corner. She just needs to keep doing what she's already doing. Growing. Stacking. Frosting. Building. Shining. And being completely, unapologetically Pink Rosay. 💗🌸❄️✨ So yes... I'll say it again. I wish I had more plants like her. But then again... if every plant behaved like Pink Rosay, we'd lose some of the madness that makes the 8×8 Adventure so much fun. 😂 So I'll keep the giants. I'll keep the wild ones. I'll keep the difficult ones. I'll keep the plants that make me work for every photograph. Because they're all part of the experiment. But this little lady? She's getting a very special place in my heart. Compact frame. Massive flower presence. Beautiful formation. Serious frost. And an enormous amount of charm. Pink Rosay Pheno A... you've absolutely earned your spotlight. 💗🌸✨ Keep shining, little lady. ──────────────────────── 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document the 8×8 Adventure and share these individual stories week after week. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Pink Rosay genetics behind this beautiful phenotype. 💗🌸 Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of the journey. 🌱 Thank you to Future of Grow for the incredible Black Series lighting and for supplying the additional fixtures we're now testing in the 8×8 Adventure. 💡🙏 Thank you to Lumiflora for adding another lighting dimension deeper into the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us keep the environment under control behind the scenes. And of course... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every photograph. Every week spent following these girls. It all becomes part of the story. And Pink Rosay Pheno A? She's certainly writing one of my favourite chapters. Small. Compact. Frosty. Beautiful. Easy to manage. And carrying flowers that make her look anything but small. 💗🌸❄️✨ Let's keep giving her what she needs... and let her do what she does best. Shine. Growers Love & Happy Growing! 🌱💚🌸

Hi there Friends🕊️ I sadly dont have much footage of This week. The left main branch did snap :‘( So i quickly covered it in tape. I thought its not able to be safed and of i should cut off the 2 sidebranches After the Snap to leave only 1 but… you‘ll see in week 5 diary😁

Spent the week playing around with a the temps/humidity to find the right setup to balance the numbers. VPD has stayed right around 1-1.18kpA. Starting to think I might have stunted grow a little at the beginning of flowering. Looking through other grows and progress at week 3 of flowering mine seem to be a little behind. Next time I will back of defoliation and lollipopping some lol. None the less everything seems to be going ok and plants still looking healthy. I’m hoping they stop growing as tent space is getting tight again. I’ve been building out an actual grow space and setting things up to try out a hydro grow. Picked up 4 Scorpion Diablo lights, quest70 dehumidifier, and going with a RDWC setup. Did a ton of research and Starting building my own system. Hopefully I can get things setup in the next week or so. I will update with a couple pictures as progress continues. Keep an eye out!

Anscheinend werden die Blüten sehr kompakt wachsen, das könnte noch zu Problemen führen...

04/26: deuxième semaine en 12/12 aucun pistils en vues :/, lst mis . 😎 08/30: déjà une bonne dizaine de jours que la belle est en 12/12: elle c'est bien mise à s'étendre à créé de nouveaux sites de fleur/fruit mais aucun signe de floraison à proprement parler. J'espère que je perds pas mon temps ! 🤔

💚✌️

The Lemon Haze Auto is cruising along nicely this week! 🌿 She’s looking healthy overall and seems to be fully focused on doing her thing – stacking up trichomes and building those buds. The smell is really starting to develop too – classic hazy notes with a zesty lemon twist in the background 🍋🔥

High, the Canna Professional Plus soil had mourning mosquitoes in it (second time I have the same problem with Canna soil). I "fight" them with Culinex pills (B.t.i.) and neem oil - works pretty good. They are almost gone.👍 I peg the leaves down, so that more light can penetrate the sprouts. EC is 1,2 with Canna Terra Vega (first and last time in veg phase). They will get another shower with neem oil the day I send them into flowering. Stay green. 💪

This cherry cola from fastbuds is already on a good start. They may have been a bit better if I had the light dialed in.

The plant continues to progress steadily and looks very healthy overall. Buds are stacking nicely across the canopy, with clear increases in density compared to last week. The beautiful pink coloration is spreading further down the plant and becoming more pronounced. Aroma is intensifying day by day, now strongly reminiscent of sweet apricot jam and very pungent.

11.05.24 Es scheint, dass die Thripsbehandlung mit BAC Vital erfolgreich war - es wurden keine Schädlinge mehr beobachtet. Durch mehrmaliges Besprühen konnte ich die Luftfeuchtigkeit etwas erhöhen. Heute wurden die Pflanzen in 2-Liter-Töpfe umgetopft, in denen sie nun weiter wachsen können, bis sie schließlich in die 30-Liter-Töpfe kommen. Ich habe ihnen einen kräftigen Schluck Wasser mit Terra Aquatica Root Booster, Terra Aquatica Seaweed und Glückspilze Mykorrhiza Soluble gegeben. 12.05.24 Die Pflanzen haben das Umpflanzen gut überstanden und zeigen keine Stressreaktionen. Die Blätter stehen prall gegen die Sonne. 13.05.24 Die Kleinen zeigen bereits wieder starkes Wachstum, daher habe ich sie heute mit der Pinzette getoppt. Ich denke, sie werden in den nächsten 3 Tagen den Stress abbauen und dann beginnen, die unteren Triebe nach oben zu entwickeln. Da wir eine Fläche von 120x120 mit geschlossenem Kronendach erreichen wollen, ist es wichtig, dass die Pflanzen frühzeitig in die Breite wachsen. 16.05.24 Die Pflanzen zeigen generell ein gutes Allgemeinwachstum, obwohl die Umgebungsbedingungen nicht ideal sind. Temperatur und Luftfeuchte sind zu hoch, woran ich arbeite, aber die aktuellen Außentemperaturen erschweren das.

Aug 29th - week 8 for Machupi’s Lady - week 6 for Russian Tzar Bomba - week 5 for LSD - week 4 for the rest (as mentioned, I prepped all plants a few days early for Flower; amendments n meals, week 4 is legit - sending a bug photo (above) to the question people - Plants fed nutrients as above; PurpsBerry fed OVERDRIVE instead of Rezin Sept 4th - last day of week 4 flower for most of the Plants. Except for Machupi’s Lady, LSD, Russian Tzar Bomba they are a few weeks ahead of schedule. - machupi gets inspected this aft, it might be time… - amending the soil of these remaining plants today - both Congo #3 x Bangi Haze and the Russian Tzar Bomba get a visit tomorrow. Some DeFol, some Food, (they were soil amended earlier this week) and some definite love and scrutiny are in store. It’ll end up on next weeks report, but thats whats scheduled. - Russian Tzar Bomba is down to the final few… She gets spoiled tomo !!!

nice clone!

📆 Semana 4 El stretch ha terminado y el cultivo entra en inicio de bulking, con la energía centrada en la formación de flores. Los cogollos empiezan a agruparse y el stacking se hace visible. La estructura está bien definida y la canopia se mantiene uniforme, favoreciendo la luz y la aireación. La resina ya es notable, incluso en hojas de abanico, y el perfil aromático empieza a activarse. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

April 26, 2024 Day 71 It's a new week and the start of late flower. It was also cleaning day. Both reservoirs have been cleaned out and are freshly loaded with new water. This week we are focusing on watering and nutrients. I may start to drop the dose until flush, over this week and the next. The light power will also be gradually dropped down over the next 2 weeks. Not much this week, I think I'll drop the DLI down to 43 mol/m²/d in the middle of the week. Next week I'll drop it down to 38 mol/m²/d. It all depends on what the plants look like. The plants are getting ready to hunker down and finish up. Both have decent sized buds and just need to finish swelling. I'd say another 2 weeks maybe? Flushing will start at some point over the next 2 weeks as well. Flushing won't be much of a big deal as it's just cleaning the reservoirs and running a week of Flawless Finish. The environment is changing a bit as well. I dropped the day temp down to 75° and the night temps to 65° or lower. Not cold enough to cause stress, but enough to get some purple I hope. The humidity is sitting at 47% and I'll be leaving it there unless somehow I can get it to go lower. For now it's pretty solid at 47% and everything looks great, so no need to worry. I'll be taking trichome pics every few days. One pic for each plant. No point in loading up the whole photo gallery with even more daily pics. Plus, the progression of trichomes isn't fast enough to really notice daily. So every 3 days should be fine. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.2° RH: 47.7% VPD: 1.49 kPa April 27, 2024 Nothing happening today. Both ladies were inspected with no issues. I snipped a single leaf off of Banana Purple Punch B. Just one. Blocking bud sites. Banana Purple Punch A has some massive buds. About the size of golf balls. Maybe a bit smaller. They are still swelling and have a good 2 weeks left. Pistils are still mostly white, so that's a good sign for larger buds and more trichomes. Banana Purple Punch B is looking wonderful as ever. She doesn't seem to be suffering any issues with nutrient burn unlike her sister plant. She's perfectly healthy and has very nice bud production. The buds aren't quite as big as Banana Purple Punch A, but still nice and sizeable. The nutrient burn seems to have stopped for Banana Purple Punch A. So that's good. It should be perfectly fine now. Lighting is staying the same for the next couple of days. Although, I may keep it the same for the rest of the week. The environment is excellent now. It's raining today and the humidity is still at 47%. I did get it down to 44% for most of the afternoon yesterday, so I may be able to keep it down after the rain stops. Or just wait for the afternoon and see what happens. Either way, the humidity is now at 47% and the temp is at 76.8°. The VPD is at 1.57 kPa. A tiny bit high, but still well within range. Last night's temp was a little high at 69°. I'll have to drop the temp lower again to get that 65° sweet spot. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.4° RH: 45.7% VPD: 1.55 kPa April 28, 2024 Not much to do today. I mixed a new batch of nutrients for both plants. The only difference is that I cut the Overdrive in half down to 2 ml/gal. Neither plant needs it, but now it's mixed and ready to go. I may end up filling the reservoirs tonight as it stands. Or later this afternoon. I don't think they will last til tomorrow morning. Both plants are putting off a wonderful aroma. I honestly can't describe it. Like sweet and kind of a hint of banana and a bit heady. Trichome production is picking up quickly. The pistils are starting to turn orange as well. They are definitely in the late flowering stage. I think I'll start dropping the nutrients for the next watering. And I'll drop the DLI down to 40 mol/m²/d tomorrow I think. Not much else to say about nutrients or lighting, so moving on to the environment. It's a warm humid day out and raining off and on. My whole environment is wonky, with humidity being at 57% and the temp at 77°. I turned the AC on about an hour ago and the temp went down to 75°, and humidity up to 60%. I think I'll crank the AC all the way down. And hopefully get rid of the humidity with the temp being a bit lower than perfect. Update: I ended up adding about a half gallon of plain water to both reservoirs. Just Incase I have nutrient lockout or something. They should go through that by tomorrow afternoon. Maybe late evening. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.6° RH: 52.8% VPD: 1.39 kPa April 29, 2024 No watering today. I'm still waiting for the plain water work it's way through. However, I did drop the light power. Both ladies look great. Big buds, great scent and nice color. I'm not seeing any fade yet, but the nutrient burn is still there. I hope it will fix itself with the plain water. And then maybe fading will start. These two need a good 2 weeks or so before harvest. The lighting, as I said, was changed today. I dropped the power down to 70% to get as close as possible to 40 mol/m²/d. I may have to drop it another 10%. I'm not too sure. I'll check the DLI again when I'm more awake. (I'm finally on my second cup of coffee. Lol) Looks good though. Just around where I want it to be. But there are a lot of spots where the DLI is a bit high at 43 mol/m²/d. The tallest tops are also kind of high at 45 mol/m²/d. Again, I'll double check on a couple hours, but it should be fine. The environment is wonky again today. The temp is fine, but the humidity is still high at 60% and I don't see a way to drop it again. Not with the current weather. Hopefully I can get it down with some heat. The AC method did not work. Well, it maybe will work tonight. I'll be dropping that bad boy down to 59° tonight and hopefully it will do what I need it to. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.2° RH: 59.8% VPD: 1.15 kPa April 30, 2024 Watering day. The reservoirs were both nearly empty and there was just enough space for a full gallon in each one. It's the normal nutrient dose with Overdrive being at 2 ml/gal. These two plants are looking mighty fine. Excellent bud swelling and trichome production. I'm definitely going to be wet trimming them instead of my normal dry trim. I may leave the bods on the branches and do a partial wet trim, or I guess mostly wet trim. They smell great! Very strong aroma now. I swear they smell like artificial grape. I can't describe it any other way. Grape and pungent. Awesome. So far the light seems to be fine. No reaching or showing any signs of lack of lighting. They look pretty happy. Although, Banana Purple Punch A is a bit sad from nutrient burn. Banana Purple Punch B however didn't seem to have much of a problem with the burn. The environment is still pretty wonky. High humidity again. I can control the temp pretty easily, but the humidity is another issue. It's currently sitting at 56% and I'm holding the temp at 76°. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.5° RH: 57.0% VPD: 1.26 kPa May 1, 2024 Not a whole lot going on today. No water needed, no light changes. I rotated both ladies 180° so now they are getting light on other sides. I'll leave them like this for the rest of the grow I think. Banana Purple Punch A actually fits better in the new position. Less wall touching and about the same neighboring plant touching. I also removed 3 leaves. Ones that were misshapen from being crushed against the tent walls. Banana Purple Punch B seems to fit a little better in the new position, mostly because of her sister plant. More room on the outside and a little less room inside. No leaves were removed today. I'll reserve that for the last 2 days of the grow cycle. Then I'll do a massive defoliation and then a wet trim. It's humid here right now and I need the space. Otherwise I'd stick with dry trimming. But I can't hold up the tent for 3 more weeks. I have other plants getting ready to be planted in their final containers. Like a week for that, I might be able to squeeze a week and a half, but that's it. They will have a space, but the main tent is where they will need to be. Not a 2x2 dry tent. I'll work it how I need to I guess. Anyway, both ladies look great! Trichome production is coming along nicely as well. They are very smelly now and I love it. They are also still packing on weight I think. Not a ton, but the buds are clearly getting denser now that some of the pistils are starting to turn orange. I'd say another 2 weeks on these two. As I said, the lighting hasn't changed at all. Not for another few days to a week. Then it will have another power drop. Until then, we are staying at a DLI of 40 mol/m²/d. It's roughly 38 mol/m²/d on the outer part of the canopy. The environment is STILL wonky. I cannot for the life of me get that damned humidity down at all. Not with a dehumidifier, not with the heat cranked, not with the AC cranked. I'll try my big dehumidifier in my room, but the humidity is like 49% and frankly I'd rather the room humidity stay there. Much easier to breathe. However, the humidity in the tent is suffering at 59% while the temp is hanging out still at 76° Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.2° RH: 56.1% VPD: 1.27 kPa May 2, 2024 Not a lot going on today. No watering needed, no trimming, nothing. I found a broken bud on Banana Purple Punch A. It must have been from when it was against the wall, or too close to the other plants and got stuck on a branch while I was rotating. Oh well. It's a lower bud, so not huge. It's also the last day of the week and that means new videos! For the rest of the grow, I'll be making weekly videos of the individual plants. So that will.be this week and the next 2 weeks or so. Banana Purple Punch A looks great aside from that one broken bud. Her buds are fat and thick. Super dense from what I can see. I would like to note that the fade hasn't started yet, so we still have that 2 weeks left. Unless it starts in the next day or 2, I'll be banking on 2 weeks. Banana Purple Punch B is still compact as ever, but her buds are getting fatter everyday and of all the plants in the tent, she has done the best with the nutrients. Very little burn and didn't seem to be bothered by it. Maybe I did something early on to have such a small plant, but still. I think I can bank on 2 oz from each plant. Maybe 3 oz. It's really nothing compared to previous grows, but as I said before, as long as it's fire, I'm happy. Trichome production on both plants is fantastic. They are loaded from top to bottom. And building more and more everyday. There's still plenty of time left for there 2 as well. Most of the trichomes are clear with about 20% being cloudy and sparsely amber. That's another sign that they need another couple of weeks. Maybe slightly less. I increased the light power yesterday back up to 80%. I think I was a bit early on the intensity drop, so I'll drop it again in a few days I think. Around mid week coming up. Now we are running a DLI of 43 mol/m²/d inside and 40 mol/m²/d on the outside. The environment kinda fixed itself, but not to the ideal climate. It's still at 55% humidity. Better than 60%, but still not good enough. It needs to be below 50%. However, I can still control the temp and I have it at 74.5°. I'll turn it up a bit and see if I can clear out the last 5% of the humidity. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.7° RH: 55.2% VPD: 1.24 kPa Update: I added a couple test videos to see if they would upload. Success!

La empezamos con una buena sesión de fotos. Finalizamos la semana metiendo más potencia al armario. Preflora, aparicion de los primeros pelos. La próxima semana cambiamos al abono de floración.

With this thick headbud, there is a risk of getting wet and bad weather and we dont want any budrod so we cut the headbud after 66 days from seed to harvest we took away some fan leafs and hung it up to dry. the lower buds may need a few more days. Its really unbelieveble how much resin she produces. smoking report is following

lights changed from viparspectra 600W to Quantum board 240W (Samsung lm301h + 660nm)

Well i ran into some problems, water temps too high over the weekend (i wasn't there) but roots and plant still looked healthy despise 24,5°C water temp over 2 days. I added 2,5ml each Hydro A & B on day 15. EC rised to 0,89 / PPM 445 and two days later ppm still the same i guess because the only part of the root touching the water couldn't uptake any nutes because of the high water temp? (everything above the water looks healthy af tho) Since my apartment is usually really hot in the summer i bought a TEC peltier water cooler + pump and a thermo regulator to ensure the water temps will stay between 20 and 21°C. i just need to wire that up and diy saved me me a lot of money. i payed about 100€ and have automatic temperature control and a cooler from amazon about 200+ € so i think its fine. I'll show you the set up once it's completed and works. Its the best budget cooling i could get my hands on imo. Today is Day 19 my parts came and i really managed it to half ass wire shit and not burning down something. wish me luck. I payed a total of 93,22€ and now got a really quiet, 150w DIY Peltier/TEC) cooler that automatically turns on once the water temp hits 21°C (69,8F) and stops when hitting 20°C. So far its working REALLY well. like im amazed and so proud i managed to do that and it was pretty easy. i had big problems with temps in my attic flat and water temps quickly rising to 24° and more which means root rot. Since i use the cooler all new roots just looking healthy as fuck. the plant is growing well and i see every day progress. So i saved a shit ton of money. the cheapest water cooler i could find on amazon was around 350+€. Sure it bet it works better, is safer to touch, not very likely to cause burning down my house because i had to twist copper wires together and let 230V run trough it BUT no way i have that much money for things like that. The cooler cools water temps from 21,5° to 20° in about 15minutes. the longer it runs the better it cools. i bought a temperature controller outlet ( 25€) which let me set 2 temps and it turning the cooler on and off. I had to cool it down manually every 2 hours before with frozen water bottles💀 So here are the stats for day 19: Water Temps: 20-21°C / pH: 5.42 / PPM: 485 / EC: 0.96 / height: 2,5cm (lol) (i added some more Hydro A and B because i thought i maybe see some nitrogen deficiency) i bet i will see some RAPID growth now since everything is dialed in, hopefully lol 150g im coming!

05/07/2020 definitely another week, #9 flower I think she be done end of week 9. The trichomes are mostly clear, some milky no amber, but I only want 5-10% amber at most anyway as I want daytime meds. Leaves are fading fast will get some better pics soon, one more watering of 2, liters plain water and we are done see you in 7days for the (harvest?)hope and pray! Ps. I do this because breeder says 9-12 weeks but breeder didn't specify 9-12 TOTAL / Or weeks or flowering weeks so I harvested 47 grams wet, at 13 weeks TOTAL, the rest will Be at my peak harvest date which is approximately week 9-10 of flowering. So it's within reason I would say.👍 Pss. The 47 grams wet weight is now at 13.9 grams, (dry weight) after 10 days drying and into the glass jar for burping and curing process . Four days into week (9 of flowering) i brought out my 420 scope still lots of clear trichomes, maybe a 10-11week flowering? Probably my lights need upgrade. See you in 4 days
