Last week in the vegetative stage for these OGs, they're already tall and full of nodes so I'm flipping into flowering light schedule NOW! Let's see how they will flower ๐Ÿ˜ I'm expecting fat and sticky buds but my room is quite overcrowded, I may encounter trouble managing the RH and airflow. Thanks for stopping by! ๐Ÿ‘Š

Welcome to week 7 of flower! Our new camera should be in this week so I'll be able to capture better photos! Things are just grooving along at a nice pace, I will be looking to check the trichomes this week to see where everythings at but I know for sure we still got some time left especially for Fuel D.og. Over all really excited to see what this week will bring and hopefully we will be starting flushing the plants by weeks end! Huge Shout outs to the following for all their outstanding work with everything from equipment to genetics: @MarsHydroLED , @Seedsman , @PyramidSeeds , @GreenHouseSeedCo HUGE HUGE shout outs to all my followers and people who stop into the diary alike! Keep inspiring to grow! -The Projexx Day#43F Plants reacting well to water increase! Fade continues to get more pronounced and the flowers still putting on mass but starting to slow down. Day#44F Pictures N/A. Ladies continue to grow. Fuel D.og#2 is really starting to smell like my old shop now, a mix of gas and grease! Day#45F Checked trichomes, Black Cherry Punch and Kings Juice will begin their flush at the end of this week, I will sneak in 1 final feeding with nutrients before flush. Day#46F Ladies are grooving along, Fuel D.og is still putting on mass daily! New camera came in and I think it does the plants justice now!

The third week has been an explosion of growth. The last two days, (day 20-21) have been growing like crazy. Excited to see what happens in the following week with growth vs the plant getting ready to flower. Iโ€™m thinking I will see pistols any day now. LST has been a great success. Pulled plant down at third node. Took the training very will and was fully rebounded by the next day. Second round of LST I was a little rough and broke off the largest fan lead trying to open her up to get another spike in. Currently she has three stakes in pulling her down and directing a stem in the opposite direction. I think that in the next few days I will be applying around 3-4 more stakes pulling more of her nodes apart. I did a very very light nutrient fertilizer this week because I feel like she is starting to get all the nutrients from the soil. The fertilizer was essentially all CalMag, mykos, great white and humic and fulvic acids. Her color is great and growth is really taking off. Next week will be a nice feed of black strap molasses to feed the microbes. PAR at the top is 430

Day 70-77 (Day 71) Not exactly sure why but node spacing on bbb 6&7 is super tight still. Their stems are also harder and less bendy, almost like theyโ€™re root bound. Bbb #5 in my veg tent is looking bizarre and Iโ€™m at a loss for what to do. Iโ€™ve been looking up and asking around about the leaf crinkle and no one seems to know whatโ€™s wrong. Trashing a pheno of this would hurt. It could be a keeper too as I donโ€™t think the problem is genetic. Itโ€™s definitely root bound but that doesnโ€™t cause contorted new growth like that. Iโ€™ve concluded that itโ€™s my dense soil coupled with root bound issues, overwatering and high RH. (Day 72) Later tonight Iโ€™m going to give bbb 5 a bath tub flush until itโ€™s reading 200ppms, drain it well and then transplant into a 3g pot with lightly amended soil. Iโ€™m also going to give it a light defoliation. I donโ€™t mind stressing the shit out of this plant right now because I wonโ€™t be flipping for another week at least. With the small container it will run out of amended nutes mid flower so I will hit it with a few synthetic feedings around then to test out the smokabilty and taste compared to organic nutrients. I might as well give the rest a good defoliation on the rest of the plants too. I will try to get most of what is under the trellis. (Day 73) I definitely defoliated #7 waaay too much. Since itโ€™s tucked away in the corner and a really bushy plant I canโ€™t train it as well as the others. I cut most of the sucker branches and the majority of the lower fans. This should prevent the need to defoliate at all until week 3 of flower. (Day 74) Iโ€™ve been reading that higher temperatures with a high RH can affect growth big time. It could be whatโ€™s causing all the crinkling and twisting. And now that the plants are in very late veg they could probably benefit from a lower RH. When I was running my temps around 74-78F and 70% RH I was in the perfect range. Now that Iโ€™m around 82-86F with the same 70% RH that could be whatโ€™s causing it. Hotter air holds more moisture than cooler air and proper vpd at 84F is around 75-80%. Iโ€™m going to turn up the speed on my carbon filter and set my controller to 75%. If I donโ€™t see a difference or it gets worse I will drop to 65 and go from there. (Day 76) I finally got the lights raised up another 4 inches or so. Itโ€™s not much but it should help reduce the intensity and stretch the nodes more. Iโ€™m starting to think the super tight node spacing and droopy/contorted growth has more to do with something Iโ€™ve been reading about called โ€˜soil compactionโ€™. Apparently farmers often deal with compacted soil in fields from running tractors over it all day. When I potted the plants I gave them a good little jiggle to compact the soil down further so I could fit a bit more in the container. I think this could be the culprit as they donโ€™t seem to be drying out evenly. Even the plants in my other room are not drying out like they should and itโ€™s probably from compacting too. With the addition of rock dust and dry amendments the soil can become sandy/clay like and retain a lot more moisture. Wish I would have added a few more liters of perlite and packed the soil a bit looser. Either way I need to get this problem sorted ASAP before I get root rot. Earlier in the season when I overwatered, I stuck a fish tank air pump into the soil and it aerated the soil enough to prevent overwatering. The only reason I discontinued it is because it didnโ€™t have much effect in the 1.7g pots. I just ordered a 36w 6 way fish tank pump that is way more powerful. It was 50 bucks and Iโ€™m willing to take a gamble on it. It seems to be my only option at the moment because I canโ€™t just repot. Worst case scenario I can use it for brewing compost teas if it doesnโ€™t work. Iโ€™m not sure how well this will work in a giant fabric pot but itโ€™s worth a shot. Iโ€™ve heard of people supplementing additional air into raised garden beds with great results. Iโ€™m picking off some of the new auxiliary branches to try and widen the node spacing. Growth is definitely slow and stunted but no signs of deficiencies. I just thought of another theory on the node spacing... and the more I think about it, the more I think itโ€™s the mystery problem. Iโ€™ve been foliar spraying with 1-1-1 VeloKelp at pretty high concentrations 2-3 times per week. I have heard in passing that kelp and seaweed can somehow reduce stretch. A quick google search reveals that Ascophyllum Nodosum Seaweed and other marine algae extracts contain large amounts of hormones and auxins that reduce plant height and stretch. *facepalm* Guess Iโ€™ll stop that for the rest of the cycle. As far as I know there is nothing I can really do but wait for the plant to use up all those excess hormones and nutes. The recent 0-0-15 seaweed extract and 1-0-3 kelp meal I bought is derived from the same kind as the velokelp. I guess I wonโ€™t use it again until week 3 or 4 in flower. Tight nodes are very useful in flower but arenโ€™t desirable at all in when trying to scrog in veg. Especially when theyโ€™re like a half inch apart. It slows the shit out of a grow. Vietnamese and biker gangs in my area used to grow SOG style and use a synthetic PGR hormone (meant for bonsai trees) called โ€˜paclobutrazolโ€™ that would make the weed rock hard dense so they wouldnโ€™t have to pay people as much to trim it. Iโ€™ve heard that in recent years they have made the switch to using kelp extracts because paclo is getting harder find and is not meant for food crops let alone smokeable crops. Iโ€™m ashamed of it but I have smoked pounds of PGR weed long before I knew what a PGR was. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ (Day 77) One more theory. Ever since raising up the plants up onto that shelf the root zone is probably significantly warmer and the bottom of the pot (where most of the roots are) drys out way quicker. Itโ€™s possible that the warmer root zone could not be holding dissolved oxygen at the proper rate resulting in that over/underwatered look. Or it could be that Iโ€™m not watering enough at once to reach the bottom of the pot where the roots are and itโ€™s indeed under watered. Iโ€™m going to water in a gallon when I get my new air pump and see if that makes any positive change. If I see the new air pump making a difference, I will flip on the 21st of April. If I donโ€™t see a difference, I will carefully untangle the plants from the scrog net and remove the shelf. That extra foot should make a massive difference with ppfd and will cool down the roots significantly too. Iโ€™m thinking about grabbing a simple soil/compost thermometer to check the temp of the medium. Better safe than sorry. Rough week. Hopefully everything get smoothed out in the next little while before I flip.

She is doing great. Got a net setup to spread everything out a little better. Still top dressing a 1.5x strength every two weeks. I've cloned a few lower branches and hopefull a few will take. The smell of this is great it smells so sweet like candy. It taste good as well. Yes I tried a few of the little buds from the ones being cloned. These pics and video are at day 88.

๐Ÿ’œ 8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Week 13 Purple Haze by Zamnesia โ€“ Pheno A The Big Mama Has Officially Left The Golf Ball Era Behind ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ€โšพ๐Ÿ‰๐Ÿ”ฅ Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And... YES. She's still fucking enormous. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ Our Purple Haze Pheno A continues to make her presence known from her corner of the 8ร—8 jungle. You don't need to look for her. You don't need to ask: "Where's Purple Haze A?" She's basically standing there saying: "HELLO! I'M RIGHT HERE!" ๐Ÿ˜‚ She's big. She's beautiful. She's substantial. She's developing those absolutely ridiculous flowers. And honestly... the more I look at her, the more I love this girl. The orange tones developing through those pistils are becoming one of my favourite things about her. That contrast between the green foliage, the developing flowers and those increasingly orange hairs... Beautiful. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿงก๐ŸŒธ And the funniest part? I'm still doing basically nothing to her. She's doing the work. I'm just watching. ๐Ÿ˜‚ She has her space. She has her photons. She has her environment. She has her irrigation and nutrition. And apparently... that's enough for her to say: "Don't touch me. I've got this." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ So let's give this Big Mama the spotlight she deserves. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฅ WEEK 13 โ€“ THE BIG MAMA IS STILL HERE Purple Haze Pheno A continues to be one of the most noticeable plants in this entire room. And that's saying something. There are twelve plants in here. Twelve different personalities. Twelve different structures. Twelve different expressions. But this girl? She doesn't exactly blend into the background. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ She's big. She's present. She's filling her corner. She's carrying some seriously impressive flowering structures. And she's doing it beautifully. Looking at her this week, I keep coming back to one thought: "How are these flowers still getting bigger?" ๐Ÿ˜‚ Because honestly... they are. The plant continues to look substantial. The flowers continue to develop. The structure continues to become more impressive. And the overall appearance is becoming increasingly mature. But we're still watching the process. We're not calling her finished. We're not trying to predict exactly where she's going. We're simply documenting what she's showing us. And right now? She's showing us some seriously ginormous flowers. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ€โšพ๐Ÿ‰ THESE ARE NOT GOLF BALLS Let's get something straight. ๐Ÿ˜‚ These are not little golf-ball-style flowers. Not even close. We're way past that conversation. We're somewhere around: ๐Ÿ€ Basketball? No. โšพ Baseball? Getting closer. ๐Ÿ‰ Rugby ball? Now we're talking. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ And some of these flowers are starting to look like they're on their way toward the American-football conversation. I'm obviously exaggerating for fun... but only because the point is: THEY ARE NOT SMALL. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ This girl is not producing tiny little flower clusters and hoping nobody notices. She's producing substantial, heavily developed structures that immediately catch your eye. You look at her... and you know. This is Purple Haze Pheno A. The Big Mama. ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ SHE OWNS HER CORNER There are some plants that occupy space. And then there are plants that own space. Purple Haze Pheno A? She owns her corner. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’œ You can see her presence immediately. She's got the height. She's got the structure. She's got the flower mass. She's got that beautiful overall shape. And when you walk into the room, your eyes naturally find her. That's one of the things I love about following her individually. Her personality has become very clear. She's not trying to be the biggest plant in the room. She's simply being herself. And somehow... herself is fucking big. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’œ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿงก THE ORANGE PISTILS ARE STEALING MY ATTENTION One of my favourite things about this week's photographs is the colour developing in those pistils. The orange tones are becoming increasingly visible. And I absolutely love the contrast. That deep green foliage. The developing flowers. The increasingly frosty surfaces. And those beautiful orange hairs running through the floral structures. ๐Ÿงก๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’œ It gives the flowers a completely different character compared with the earlier weeks. Earlier on, everything was much fresher. Much brighter. Much whiter. Now we're seeing more variation. More colour. More maturity. More personality. And that's exactly what I want to document. Not just: "Here's a beautiful flower." But: "Here's how that flower changed." Week by week. Photograph by photograph. And Purple Haze Pheno A is giving us a beautiful progression to follow. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’Ž THE FLOWERS ARE DOING THE TALKING At this point, I really don't need to say much. The flowers are doing most of the talking. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒธ They're substantial. They're developing beautifully. They're becoming increasingly defined. They're carrying more visual weight. And when you get closer with the camera... you can see just how much detail is packed into them. This is one of those plants where the full-plant photograph tells one story... and the close-up tells another. From a distance: "That's a big plant." Closer: "That's a big flower." Even closer: "Jesus Christ, look at that." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ“ธ And that's the beauty of documenting the same plant every week. You get to watch the entire transformation. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’œ SHE'S STILL DOING HER THING And here's something I really want to emphasize. I'm not doing anything special to her this week. No dramatic intervention. No unnecessary manipulation. No trying to force her into a particular shape. Nothing. I'm letting her do whatever she has to do. And she's showing me what she has to show me. Healthy. Beautiful. Big. Frosty. Developing. And absolutely unmistakable. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ Sometimes the best thing a grower can do is simply stop trying to improve something that's already working. She's doing her job. So I'm doing mine. I'm watching. I'm documenting. I'm checking the environment. I'm paying attention. And I'm letting her write the next chapter. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ OBSERVATION OVER INTERVENTION This is becoming a recurring theme throughout the 8ร—8 Adventure. Earlier in the grow, there was plenty to do. Structure. Positioning. Training. Canopy management. Adjustments. Now? We're entering a very different part of the journey. The plants have established themselves. The structures are there. The flowers are there. And the best thing we can often do is observe. Look. Compare. Photograph. Learn. And only intervene when something actually requires it. Purple Haze Pheno A doesn't seem interested in asking for anything right now. She's too busy becoming enormous. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ So I'll let her. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ THE CAMERA IS LOVING HER And honestly... how could it not? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ’œ She's one of those plants that gives you something different every time you point the camera at her. Full plant. Main flowers. Side flowers. Close-ups. Different angles. Different lighting. And suddenly you realize: "Wait... THAT flower is huge too?" ๐Ÿ˜‚ That's what makes documenting her so much fun. She's not just producing one impressive structure. There are substantial flowers distributed throughout the plant. And the more you look... the more you find. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ˜€๏ธ SAME PHOTONS โ€“ DIFFERENT EXPRESSION And once again, this girl is doing all of this in the same environment as everybody else. The 8ร—8 continues with the expanded Future of Grow Black Series lighting setup. Two additional 600W fixtures were added to the room, giving us more available lighting capability and more control over how we use that capability. We're not simply running everything at maximum. We're controlling the output. Approximately: ๐Ÿ”Œ ~59% power from the plug With approximately: โ˜€๏ธ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. And Purple Haze Pheno A is sitting underneath those photons... doing exactly what Purple Haze Pheno A apparently wants to do. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œโ˜€๏ธ Build. Stack. Develop. Grow. And make enormous flowers. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ก MORE CAPABILITY โ€“ NOT MORE CHAOS One thing I really like about the lighting upgrade is that more capability doesn't mean we have to use everything at maximum. We have more headroom. More flexibility. More control. And that gives us the ability to operate the fixtures at a level that makes sense for the room rather than simply chasing maximum output. That's much more interesting to me. Because the goal isn't: "How much light can we throw at the plants?" The goal is: "How can we create a controlled lighting environment and observe how these different genetics respond?" And Purple Haze Pheno A is giving us one hell of an answer. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฌ SAME ROOM โ€“ DIFFERENT GENETIC EXPRESSION This is still the heart of the entire 8ร—8 Adventure. Twelve plants. One room. Same general environment. Same lighting philosophy. Same irrigation. Same nutritional foundation. Same 12/12 schedule. And... completely different plants. Some are slow. Some are fast. Some are compact. Some are huge. Some are building differently. Some are changing colour differently. Some are developing flowers differently. And Purple Haze Pheno A? She's one of our Big Mamas. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ She's showing us what her genetics want to do under these conditions. And I love that. Because we're not trying to make twelve identical plants. We're trying to see twelve different stories. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โš—๏ธ NUTRITION โ€“ LETTING HER FINISH HER WORK The room continues with the current flowering nutrition approach, with the nutritional programme being adjusted progressively as the plants move deeper into the cycle. The current foundation remains around: ๐ŸŒฑ Terra Bloom ๐ŸŒฑ Power Buds ๐ŸŒฑ Green Sensation ๐ŸŒฑ Sugar Royal with the room continuing around the current: โš—๏ธ pH ~6.0 โšก EC ~2.1 mS/cm The important part for me isn't simply looking at numbers on a chart. It's looking at the plant. And this girl? She's giving us a very clear response. She's growing. She's developing. She's building those flowers. She's maintaining beautiful colour. And she's continuing to look healthy. So we're observing rather than trying to invent something for her to do. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒก๏ธ THE ROOM KEEPS DOING ITS JOB The general 8ร—8 environment remains stable around the current setup: ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature: ~26.5ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature: ~26ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง RH: ~61% ๐ŸŒฑ Substrate temperature: ~25ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ฆ Nutrient solution: ~25ยฐC โš—๏ธ pH: ~6.0 โšก EC: ~2.1 mS/cm ๐Ÿ’จ COโ‚‚: ~693 ppm ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule: 12/12 ๐Ÿ’ง Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h ๐ŸŒฑ Pot size: 15 L โ˜€๏ธ Upper canopy: ~1,500 PPFD ๐Ÿ”Œ Future of Grow output: ~59% Same room. Same jungle. Same artificial sun. And one very happy-looking Purple Haze. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟโ˜€๏ธ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’Ž THE FROST CONTINUES TO BUILD And of course... we can't talk about this girl without mentioning the frost. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž The flowers continue looking increasingly decorated. The surfaces are becoming more visually complex. The closer photographs reveal more and more detail. And when you combine that with the orange pistils... wow. She's developing a really beautiful appearance. The colour combination is becoming one of my favourite parts of this phenotype. Deep greens. Frosty flowers. Orange pistils. Large floral structures. And that unmistakable Purple Haze character. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’Ž It's a beautiful combination. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ?๐Ÿงก SHARING THE MEDICINE WHILE SHE'S STILL GROWING And speaking of the flowers... I've also been enjoying sharing some of my white hash medicine from the room. Not from this girl yet. She's still standing there very much alive and very much unfinished. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ Her chapter hasn't reached that point. But eventually... she'll have her own place in that story too. And when the time comes, we'll talk about everything properly. The harvest. The flowers. The cure. The smoke. The aromas. The flavours. The effects. And all the details that deserve their own reports. For now? She's still in the room. Still growing. Still developing. Still making me stop and stare. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธ And that's exactly where I want her. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ NOT FINISHED โ€“ NOT EVEN CLOSE This is another thing I want to keep clear. The flowers may look enormous. They may already look extremely developed. But I'm not going to start declaring the end simply because they look impressive. She's still progressing. She's still changing. She's still developing. And there's still more story to come. The plant will tell us when she's entering the next chapter. Until then... we watch. We photograph. We learn. And we enjoy the show. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ THE BIG MAMA DOESN'T NEED HELP STEALING THE SPOTLIGHT Some plants need a little encouragement. Some need a little explanation. Some need you to point the camera in their direction. Purple Haze Pheno A? No. ๐Ÿ˜‚ She steals the spotlight herself. She's standing there in her corner like: "Are you finished talking about the other plants yet?" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ "No, no... come here. Look at THIS." And then you look. And... yeah. She's got a point. ๐Ÿ˜‚ She's beautiful. She's substantial. She's developing beautifully. And she's impossible to ignore. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฎ WHAT COMES NEXT? Honestly? I'm just curious. How much more will she build? How much more will those flowers develop? How will those orange pistils continue changing? How will the resin expression evolve? How will the overall plant mature? And when this girl finally reaches the end of her journey... what the hell are those flowers going to look like? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ I have no idea. And I'm perfectly happy with that. Because that's why we're documenting it. No need to guess. We'll see. Week by week. Photograph by photograph. Chapter by chapter. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ญ FINAL THOUGHTS โ€“ THE BIG MAMA IS STILL SHINING Week 13. And Purple Haze Pheno A continues to be one of the absolute characters of this room. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ”ฅ She's still ginormous. She's still beautiful. She's still impossible to miss. She's still occupying her corner like she owns the place. And those flowers? Well... I think we've officially left the golf-ball category behind. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ€โšพ๐Ÿ‰ She's moving into baseball. Maybe rugby. And she's looking suspiciously toward American football. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Jokes aside... the point is simple. These are not small flowers. This girl is not kidding. She's building some seriously substantial structures. And she's doing it while I'm barely touching her. I'm not trying to force her. I'm not trying to make her do anything. I'm simply letting her be Purple Haze Pheno A. And she's showing us exactly what that means. Healthy. Beautiful. Big. Frosty. Orange-haired. And completely herself. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿงก๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’Ž That's what I love about this project. The plants tell us who they are. We just have to pay attention. So keep doing your thing, Big Mama. Keep shining. Keep building. Keep showing us those ridiculous flowers. And when you're ready to show us what comes next... I'll be right here with the camera. ๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ Let's keep the photons flying. Let's keep documenting. Let's keep learning. And most importantly... let's let this girl shine. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’Žโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ™ THANK YOU As always, a massive thank you to everyone following the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document these individual journeys and share the process week after week. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Purple Haze genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore these different phenotypes under the same conditions. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden throughout this journey with the growing media and nutrition. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to test this expanded lighting setup inside the 8ร—8. More capability. More control. More photons. And twelve different plants showing us twelve completely different responses. Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light deeper into the canopy and allowing us to explore the garden as the three-dimensional environment it really is. And thank you to TrolMaster for helping monitor and manage the room behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following these girls week after week. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by. You're all part of this adventure. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Twelve plants. One room. One shared environment. And twelve completely different stories. Purple Haze Pheno A is writing hers with some seriously large letters. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ She's the Big Mama. She's the girl who owns her corner. She's the girl who keeps making enormous flowers. She's the girl whose orange pistils are becoming one of my favourite visual details. She's the girl who doesn't need me to do much because she's perfectly happy doing her own thing. And she's the girl who continues to make me stop, look and say: "Damn." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ”ฅ So let's give her the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's keep the camera ready. Let's keep watching those flowers develop. And let's see where this beautiful girl takes us next. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’Žโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ‘‘ Growers Love, my friends. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Happy growing, take care everyone... and keep your eyes on the Big Mama. Because if she keeps going like this... we might need to invent a whole new category of flower size. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ€โšพ๐Ÿ‰๐Ÿ’œ See you next week in the 8ร—8 jungle. Where some girls take the scenic route... some girls cruise... and Purple Haze Pheno A? She's apparently trying to turn her corner into a professional sports arena. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ”ฅ See you next week!
