Jus did some picking every other day added the boost the lights is at a dim 80% (maybe like a 83)

​🌿 VEG WEEK 3: Big Bang | Divine Seeds ​🌱 VEGETATIVE PROGRESS ​The Big Bang is showing incredible resilience and power this week. Since she settled so well into the 8L pots, I decided it was time for the first major structural intervention: Topping. ✂️ I’ve removed the main apical growth point to break the apical dominance and redirect that energy into the side branches. ​Looking at the close-ups, she handled the surgery like a champ with zero recovery time. You can already see the two new main shoots taking over, and the lower branches are catching up rapidly. The leaf color is a perfect, healthy green, and the stem continues to thicken up. This is the foundation for the massive canopy we’re building for the Scrog net. 📈 ​💧 NUTRIENT FEEDING & WATERING ​I’ve stepped up the feeding regimen this week to support the rapid development after topping. The addition of Bio-Heaven provides a massive boost for energy uptake and recovery. ​Current Feeding Schedule (per Liter): ​Bio-Heaven: 2.0 ml/l ​Root-Juice: 2.0 ml/l ​Acti-Vera: 1.0 ml/l ​Calmag: 0.5 ml/l ​Parameters: ​pH: 6.5 ​Relative Humidity (RH): 60% ​Temperature: 23 °C ​VPD: 0.95 kPa ​💭 GROWER'S NOTE ​👀 Status Report: Topping was the right move at the right time! By keeping the VPD steady at 0.95 kPa, I’m ensuring the plant can process the increased nutrient intake from the Bio-Heaven without any transpiration issues. The symmetry of this Big Bang phenotype is outstanding. Now that we have multiple growth points, I’ll be starting the LST very soon to spread her out even further. The vigor of these Divine Seeds genetics is just next level! 💥 Stay tuned! 🚀

🌱 8×8 Adventure – Folder 10 Frosted Guava – Plant A | Week 4 | The Compact Contender Begins to Bloom Every phenotype tells its own story, and that is exactly why this 8×8 Adventure continues to fascinate me. Growing twelve different genetics under the same environment using the 12/12 From Seed technique has become a constant lesson in how differently each cultivar interprets identical conditions. Some immediately stretch toward the light, while others choose patience, investing their energy into structure before committing to vertical growth. Frosted Guava Plant A clearly belongs to the second group. Rather than racing upward, she has spent these first weeks building an incredibly dense, compact framework. Looking at her today, it’s easy to understand why this phenotype caught my attention. Every internode remains tight, every branch is stacked close together, and the entire plant carries an impressive amount of healthy foliage without sacrificing vigor. She may not be the tallest lady in the tent, but she’s quietly building what looks to become an exceptionally productive little bush. The most exciting part? Despite her compact stature, she has officially begun announcing that flowering is just around the corner. ⸻ 🌱 Building a Foundation Before the Stretch One of the things I enjoy most about documenting these grows is watching personality emerge before flowers ever appear. Frosted Guava Plant A has developed into exactly the kind of plant that rewards patience. Instead of producing long internodal spacing, she has focused on creating a dense network of future flowering sites. Looking closely, nearly every node is alive with vigorous new growth, and fresh shoots are beginning to compete for dominance. The canopy is naturally uniform, making future light penetration much easier than on taller, more open phenotypes. Sometimes growers become concerned when a plant doesn’t stretch early under 12/12, but genetics ultimately decide how that energy is distributed. In this case, the energy has clearly gone underground first into the roots, then into stem thickness, branching, and node production before committing to vertical growth. The result is a plant that already feels mature despite standing only around 25 cm tall. ⸻ ✂️ Gentle Low Stress Training Instead of aggressive manipulation, this phenotype has been guided with a much softer approach. Throughout the week I continued using simple leaf bending, leaf tucking and gentle repositioning to expose hidden growth tips. No unnecessary stress, no heavy defoliation—just encouraging light to reach every developing branch naturally. This technique has worked beautifully. Rather than removing valuable solar panels, the larger fan leaves are simply moved out of the way, allowing the lower shoots to receive enough light to become future flowering tops. Sometimes the simplest training methods are also the most effective. The goal isn’t forcing the plant into shape. The goal is helping her discover her own. ⸻ 🌸 The First Signs of Flower One of the most enjoyable moments during a 12/12 From Seed project is seeing that unmistakable transition. This week those first pre-flower structures have become impossible to ignore. Tiny clusters are beginning to form across the upper nodes, the apical growth has changed shape, and the plant is slowly shifting away from vegetative expansion toward reproductive development. She isn’t waiting. Exactly as expected with this cultivation method, Frosted Guava is entering bloom while still maintaining a beautifully compact architecture. If the coming stretch remains moderate, this could easily become one of the densest canopies inside the entire 8×8 tent. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Conditions This week the room remained remarkably stable despite the warm summer conditions. Grow Environment • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 33°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 63% • 🌱 Substrate Temperature: 21°C • 💦 Nutrient Solution Temperature: 26°C • ⚡ EC: 1.35 mS/cm • ⚗️ pH: 6.1 • ☁️ CO₂: 639 ppm • 💧 Daily Water Consumption: 1.1 L • ? Pot Size: 15 L • ☀️ Light Schedule: 12/12 Although daytime temperatures continue to push higher than ideal, the plants have responded exceptionally well. Healthy leaf posture, rich coloration, vigorous growth and strong transpiration all suggest that root-zone conditions remain stable enough to offset the environmental heat. Sometimes plants tell you far more than any environmental sensor can. And these leaves are telling me they’re happy. ⸻ Feeding Program The nutrition program remained intentionally balanced to support both continued vegetative development and the beginning of flower initiation. This week’s recipe consisted of: • Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L • Power Roots — 1 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L • Lemon Kick — 0.03 ml/L With an EC of 1.35, the feeding remains moderate while supplying everything needed to sustain healthy growth without pushing the plant harder than necessary. The rich green foliage suggests the balance is right where it should be. ⸻ 🔬 Phenotype Notes Looking over this week’s photographs, several characteristics stand out. The stem has thickened noticeably and provides an excellent foundation for future flower weight. Branch spacing remains extremely tight, giving the plant a naturally bushy appearance without requiring topping or more invasive training. The new growth is vibrant, healthy and full of energy, while the canopy remains surprisingly symmetrical despite only using leaf tucking. Perhaps the most interesting observation is just how many future flowering sites are already visible. Nearly every branch tip appears ready to contribute to the final canopy. She may not be trying to become the biggest plant. She may simply be trying to become one of the fullest. Sometimes that’s an even better strategy. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead The coming week should be one of the most exciting yet. With flowering now beginning, I expect Frosted Guava Plant A to enter her stretch phase while continuing to produce additional flowering sites throughout the canopy. Training will remain gentle, focusing on canopy management rather than forcing structure. If she maintains this compact architecture while adding vertical growth, she could develop into one of the easiest plants in the room to manage. Every day she becomes a little more confident. And every week she gives another reason to be excited about what’s coming next. ⸻ 💚 Final Thoughts Projects like this remind me why I love growing. No two plants ever read the same script. Even when sharing identical lighting, nutrition, temperatures and care, every genetic line chooses its own path. Frosted Guava Plant A has decided that patience comes first—building strength before height, structure before stretch, and now finally revealing the first signs that flowering has officially begun. Watching those decisions unfold is one of the greatest rewards of documenting every week of this journey. A huge thank you to Zamnesia for providing these exciting Frosted Guava genetics, Plagron for the reliable soil and nutrient line that keeps this entire project thriving, and Future of Grow LED for delivering the powerful, even lighting that allows every phenotype to express its full potential. As always, thank you to the incredible GrowDiaries platform for giving growers around the world a place to learn from one another, and to everyone who follows this 8×8 Adventure week after week. Your encouragement, questions, advice and enthusiasm continue to make this journey even more rewarding. Growers Love and see you all next week, as Frosted Guava Plant A takes her first real steps into bloom. 🌱💚

week intel: every thing is amazing girls are ripening , we can now cause more e.c stress than before because: 1-plants are very mature now and can handle stress 2- at this week its the only stress that is helpful for increasing plant resins stresses : E.C stress around 1.6 and 1.7 3 times a week feeding: i replaced B-52 with Bloom Base Nutrient i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them high with base nutrients(calcium & micros (half dose) + Bloom) about 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them high dose of Top-Max + Bloom Base Nutrient around 877 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause stress . day 5 : i feed them high dose of Feeding Booster around 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause e.c stress again guide of the week : last weeks are time of ripening , and the only helpful stress is e.c stress at this moment

Yes everything is fine looking to maybe try lst next time round with some.

Season 2 is officially underway and so excited for this grow. Growing 4 plants, but space is a lil limited. Growing in an 80x80cm so using small pots. 2x 8l and then 1x 5l and 1x 4.7l (if you wanna be exact lol). This time I decided to experiment a bit. I'm testing 2 different soils, both in 8l pots, both Purple Punch Auto by Fastbuds, both in airpots. Their names are Robin and Lily. Also testing fabric bags against airpots. Both in same soil, both in 5l pots, both Wild Dwarf Auto by Bulk Seed Bank (that was the plan but now it's 1 WD and another Purple Punch). Their names are Jess and Cece. For this one, Robin, had the seed in water for about 24 hours then in paper towel. Then, into Living Organics soil. If you check the pics, when she popped out the soil, the root was showing also, ouch. But she looks ok now.

new week did a small bit of LST. Not sure if things are imrproving with the calmag but i am seeing more growth but still little brown patched on the leaves but ill stick at it and see how it all goes. I am wondering if i should remove any of the leaves with the brown patches etc but tempted to just let it grow and see where it ends up

Day 78 - Ripening a. the buds are gaining more and more weight, humidity 45% b. the resin is dripping from the buds, the amount of resin on this plant is next level c. smelling this plant when I open the tent I smell floral fruity tones Day 79 - more resin a. the glands on this plant keep growing upward and multiplying all over the buds b. buds fattening Day 80 - buds are rock hard a. the colas are very dense, even the buds down the limbs are dense! Day 81 - the smell is so strong! a. glad I use carbon filter in this box, this plant smells crazy good like most citrus weed you've ever smelled. b. I clipped a bud, dried it safely, smoked .25g in a bong and the effects are already super strong. c. trichomes are about 60% milky, a few ambers here and there, still plenty of clears to let ripen. Day 82 - her pistils are 70% brown/orange - buds are becoming blue! Video uploaded a. the colas are very tight and dense with their leaves all being yellow now, many are able to remove by hand with no effort except the huge amount of resin holding them in. I will not remove any because I will be making hash later on. b. the buds are turning a nice blue color. I will be going the distance with this plant! c. Trichomes are 80% white, 20 % clear with a few ambers here and there, still needs more time! DWC and autos always take a little longer due to the abundance of readily available nutrients in the water pool. Day 83 - ripening fast! Blue Gelato buds! a. turned lights down to 50% intensity b. will begin the flushing process tomorrow Day 84 - We will begin the flush! a. I will use Florakleen to flush the ladies for a few days, then I will harvest b. the trichome production is next level with this plant

Have seen a lot of good diary’s on these had to get some for myself to see how it goes! Hopefully we get some super purple buds! Stay tuned & happy growing friends!🤙🏼✌️🏼🌱 Day 1 - Finally got them planted & water with fox farm big bloom (6tsp per gal) Day 2 - all 5 have sprouted & doing great! Day 3 - 2 out of 5 seeds have fallen off but they are all still growing & looking good! Watered them a little more this morning👍🏼 Day 4 - Looking great🙏🏼 Day 5 - Grow babies Grow!! Day 6 - Plain PH water 6.4

Added a bit more Foliage-Pro to the mix as the LSDs have been a bit yellow, normal flowering? Buds are filling out, not as strong smelling as expected but I can tell they are in the house.

This week I put up a long video that features my new tent and new clones from these current clones that are flowing. The hairs are turning color now and I have given them there last feeding, only straight ph balanced water from here on out to flush the plants so they taste nice.

She's packing on some weight now shocked how chunky she is after the shock of the transplant. She's definitely a strong girl that's for sure

So I definitely fucked up this week and missed some crucial water times. I passively knew in the back of my mind to but I was just having busy and stressful days.

10/5: Comparing photos from the beginning of last week and today, it was pretty decent growth. If they were stunted from being in the temporary grow bags for too long, it wasn't too badly. --Blackberry I (I call her Halle), is really purpling up well, and looking like she'll be a single uber-phat cola...no branching at all..whereas her sister is all about the branches. --Wedding Cheesecakes are consistently big and vigorous. They'll probably be the best producers of the crop. --Orange Sherbets look like clones they are so consistent in shape and leaf structures. Kinda short compared to the other varieties, but nice and bushy. --Gorilla Cookies are also identical in plant shape, but two of them are a few days ahead of the other as far as pistil production goes. Also not a very tall cultivar, but many branches. --The late/stunted Lemon Pie is praying to the sun at all times and starting to look like she belongs in the same crop. The bigger LP is gorgeous..perfect structure, the other one is catching up, but my cat keeps defoliating her.😏 ---Strawberry Pies have massive sun-blocking fan leaves that require constant tucking, but they are branching well, and a couple of them are pretty beefy. The other SP is doing fine considering her crooked trunk and slow start. 10/6: Today I noticed 9 "lone" nanners on the nodes of the crooked trunk-Strawberry Pie!😧 No clusters.. just single pollen sacs here and there.🤨 These plants have experienced no major stress at all...I'm keeping it like late-August upper-peninsula Michigan in the closet. 80f/50%RH 👌 Damnit...this is a new, stable strain, right??👈 I've seen no other SP diaries with hermaphrodites...just my fukt luck I guess.😖 I plucked them and will watch for more..and I guess I'd better keep a close eye on the other two SPs as well... I just got my wife a new 16 x 7 x 7 greenhouse frame with the green semi-translucent cover for her 4' x 12' raised bed...if i see any more sneaky nanners appear, I'll probably remove the plant(s) and move them outdoors to finish in there. I swore I'd not do any training this run, but while removing the pollen sacs I couldn't resist opening up and tieing down some branches on the hermie.🤷 10/9: I fed them.

One of Cindy Purp is smaller than the other, and both are female. The Purple Afghan is smaller but has lush and dense Foliage 🔥

Tag 36: Obwohl die Lampe auf 18 Stunden gestellt ist blüht die Feminisierte Sorte Special Queen munter weiter 😲 Ich gebe zusätzlich Blütedünger.

Esta semana ya realice la poda. Se encuentra en estos momentos en etapa de secado dentro de una caja especial para secados de flores que uso siempre y nunca me falla. En humedo hay 195g y utilice una lampara led de 150w en todas sus etapas. Próximamente estaré publicando cuando este en curado.
