This lady is looking amazing

Girls were welcomed by some shower of blessing... pistils poppin out girls filling out....upcoming week start doing some clean up and pruning

So geht das Späßchen zu Ende mit dieser Genetik. Ich hab nicht allzu viel dazu zu sagen. Ich war nie der große Sativa Fan. Wir haben die Pflanze zu Hasch verarbeitet. Ich werde die Bilder davon editieren, sobald es fertig ist Ich hab die Pflanze ohne große Erwartungen angebaut. Ich hab sie auch in keinster Weise je trainiert oder ihr besondere Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt. Es handelte sich mehr um ein Randprojekt dass wir aus Spaß haben laufen lassen. Nicht, weil wir sie wirklich als Konsumgut verwenden wollten. Daher war ich auch nicht allzu gekümmert, als zum Ende des Sich die ersten Blüten mit Schimmel gezeigt haben oder als die Pflanze vom Sturm komplett dahin gerissen wurde. Nichts, desto trotz muss ich sagen, wie mir bereits aufgefallen ist. Passt auch hier die Beschreibung von FastBuds wie die Faust aufs Auge. 👊🏻👀 Die haben da also nicht nur talentierte Züchter, sondern auch Connaisseure da sitzen, die es schaffen die Kreation sehr passend als Produktbeschreibung aufs Papier zu bringen. Wer auf Sativadominante Pflanzen steht, hat hier sicher ein schönes Erlebnis mit starker Genetik. Ich habe sie wie oben beschrieben, zwar nicht trainiert oder Ähnliches, jedoch hat sie den ein oder anderen Sturm mitgemacht und ist letztlich auch als gesamte Pflanze mit über zweieinhalb Metern umgefallen und hat sich davon überhaupt nicht aus der Ruhe bringen lassen. Daher würde ich davon ausgehen, dass es auch grau, die auf Dinge wie LST oder noch kompliziertere Trainingsmethoden abfahren mit dieser Genetik einen gnädigen Partner in Zelt zu haben, der viel mit sich machen lässt. Sie stammt aus einem Mix Pack und ist daher bei mir im Garten gelandet. Ich würde sie mir nicht explizit selber noch einmal kaufen allein aufgrund meiner Rausch und Rauchpräferenz. Der Erntewert ist eine Schätzung und wird, nachdem ich das Nassgewicht der Blüten ermittelt habe mit dem Faktor 0,2 errechnet und dann eingetragen. Ich wünsche euch viel Erfolg bei euren Projekten und wir sehen uns nächste Woche ❤️🌴☘️?🏻

Dos Si Dos # 33 ready for drying in the jar, honest weight (53,5g) seeing the structure which was very small I would have expected something less.. but I am very satisfied. the quality of this weed is absolutely at the top, the taste is very well defined.. when smoked it makes your nose tingle,flavor it is mainly pure lemon with a hint of mint in it. even the strong smell induces an entire room in a few seconds without even smoking it yet. I also collected a 0.4g of scissor hash which turned out very well. it is my favorite in this crop because it surprised me in everything both for its unique terpene profile and for its yield that I never expected given its size compared to wedding cakes. the total weight therefore of all three plants is (135.5g) and a total trim of (44.9g) that according to the calculations even of these crops I reached (1g/watt) precisely. (And im not a pro) I am certainly satisfied with that. 🙌🏻💚

Our Black Runtz branded Zamnesia has arrived at the moment of truth, it's going very well from the start and the god of Jella has punished me because I'm bragging too much: I accidentally knocked out the fan that cut a brunch. I'm an asshole, I was very high and I did this damage that I also reported in the photo to make amends and remind myself not to do this bullshit. Apart from this which is still a disgrace for me, the plant is an excellent beauty, it's doing very well, we only went from 16 buds to 14 buds like this damage that I caused. They know 14 succulent buds, let's hope. If I don't do any more damage. We did our best, Zamnesia has put superb genetics and at home B&B we are working to show you the plants in all their possible meanings. This plant like all the other photoperiodic ones has been worked with a topping x16 buds, simply repeating the topping technique without doing anything else than cleaning the leaves from time to time and now the branches that I believe do not give me good flowers at the bottom. After the damage x14 buds The 14 buds are not perfectly aligned there is something that escapes upwards but it is normal in the economy of a plant i tried to FIM before go in bloom. We are still using soil, fertilizers and all the additives recommended by Plagron 100% organic. The plant has been flowering for 3 days, in the diary I leave it indicated as the last week of vegetative but we move on to the fertilizers for flowering. We have now moved on to the early flowering program which maintains the same additives Power Roots, Sugar Royal, Pure Zym and adds the flowering stimulant Power Buds. Now the base fertilizer is now Alga Bloom with which I get along very very well even more than Alga Grow that sometimes I have to understand well how to dose in some particular cases ( topping). Probably try to prepare the soil with Plagron Super Mix or with the Zamnesia Pellet. The Green Sensation will arrive as the hero of the end of flowering and at the same time it will be time to remove power roots and a week later the Pure Zym enzymes. ---- Decide on the right soil and calculate your fertilizer card based on the soil on the official website. -- www.plagron.com Try a seed of this strain that drives us crazy.. -------- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/11159-zamnesia-seeds-black-runtz.html Zamnesia Description // Black Runtz comes from a truly legendary genetic pool. Our breeders used three modern classics from the United States to create this strain: Zkittlez, Gelato, and Runtz. With 20% THC and flavors of grapes and berries, Zkittlez passed on her delicious flavors and relaxing effects. Gelato contributed to Black Runtz's immense flavor profile by passing on high concentrations of the terpenes limonene and humulene. Finally, Black Runtz inherited the high potency of the original Runtz, a strain with a respectable 21% THC. The end result of this 3-way cross is a strain with 55% indica genetics and 45% sativa. Black Runtz boasts rapid flowering times, high potency, and contrasting yet balanced terpenes that supports its delicious flavor profile.

Good week. Buds are fattening up. Growing like a 1/4" a day!!!! It's getting exciting for my first grow.

So I had absolutely no ill effect on the plants at at all moving from the green buzz veg feed too the house & garden soil a&b feeds, I did not even given them a water only inbetween the two, I also went straight in with 50% the recommended dose stated on the house & Gardens bottles this switched happened the day before week 5 none showed any signed of defects or deficiency intact they exploded into life over night and then every day after that, I have been using the green buzz fast buds as a folar spry appied too the leaves of the early flower formation after lights out, They seemed too love that too and I also kept the note roots going in, I also started too apply C-RESULT at the fullbl dose stated on the bottle, The plants live this stuff if you have not tried it do it, I am not sponcered by c-result I was given this by my local grow store, It brings all the nutrients straight too the roots it states, All I know is this stuff triggers the plants too suck the pots dry in 24 hours, So make sure you have your feed bucket fully in order before adding this stuff as a mistake here could cost you, But get it right and in 24 hours these little autos doubled in size, It states too used week one of flower only and smells like a sewer lol I have today day one of week 6 Started too add house & garden Bud XL at half strength too increase next week and also I added there top shooter at 1ml per liter of water as 7 as I plan too removed all chemicals exactly as of day 1 of week 7 leaving me week 9 clean, I am training all the shooting tips too my scrog netting the best I can due too very limited space in the grow space, And am praying for some of the promised purple leaves on the fast buds Web site, I did not too these this time, I has on lemon pie this round that is 2 weeks behind the rest due too non germination but I am wondering if a staggered planting each plant exactly one week behind each other would give me a little more canapé space and the treat of harvesting a plant every week, Using the skyline 1000 only I did not too any of these autos 2 x strawberry cheese cake 2 x lemon pie 4 x fyah Sounds like a plan too me, Thanks for reading

Defoliated heavily, and I'm giving only water for the last weeks

week intel: its time for second pruning they grew up too fast and need second pruning as below : first i remove big fan leaves and only leaves then let them rest for 1 day then the second part of pruning will get done that is removing branches based on these conditions: 1-if the branch is very low and never can make it to the top , 2- if branch is in shade even after pruning fan leaves , 3- if there are too many branches at the small space then non of them will get resources so if there is no space for branch then , they must get remove. everything is perfect! stresses : pruning big fan leaves and lower branches + a little E.C stress around 1.7 once a week feeding: i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them heavy with silicate +base nutrients(calcium & micros + Bloom) about 884 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose of Feeding Booster + Karbo Boost around 325 ppm - 0.6 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused. day 5 : i feed them with low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 213 ppm - 0.4 e.c to let them recover the stresses to get ready for another stress next week. guide of the week : no more stresses from now on till the end and from next week i'll reduce the amount of nitrogen and calcium to below half to the end.

9/10 Went and shook the plants off. I don't think it rained. I think it's just dew. Plants with ailments seem to be progressing well and it looks like they'll outrun the pathogens. It may not be a banner year yield wise but the quality will be great it looks like. GMO is stacking up real nice. The ones in further flower are swelling more and more everyday. Earwigs MAY be back because I noticed a couple of plants where I left a tiny little branch on the bottom have been lollipopped on tje sherb pie and rather quickly too. I suppose it could be leaves dieing and rotting bit I doubt it. If they are here there aren't many and most plants are too far in flower for them to bother. They eat the lower newly developing shoots. Not big dense buds. Luckily. I noticed some pm on the gmo with pm. Looks like it's time for another treatment of k bicarb. I'll probably do that tonight. I'll keep this updated. WENT BACK OVER AND DEFOLIATED A BUNCH OF STUFF. ITS TIME FOR ANOTHER APP OF K BICARB. I CHECKED THE SHERB PIE AND IT DOESNT NEED TO BE WATERED. IT WAS STILL VERY HEAVY. IM THINKING I MAY HAVE EARWIGS THAT ARE FEASTUNG ON LOWER BRANCHES THAT SHOULDVE BEEN PRUNED. I NOTICED SOME LARFY SHIT THAT KOOKS LIKE NEW SHOOTS WERE CHEWED. LUCKILY THEY DONT SEEM TO BOTHER DEVELOPED BUDS. ESPECIALLY ROCK HARD BUDS. I'LL DO SOME RESEARCH AND DO SOME FORM OF APPLICATION FOR THE PM SPOTS I SAW AND THE SEPTORIA I KNOW IS THERE. IM SUPER GRATEFUL THOUGH. THESE ARE VERY HARD TO GROW STRAINS AND I THINK ILL KNOCK IT OUT OF THE PARK. Also thinking of switching to cha ching shortly on the toasted toffy and the event horizon that's furthest along. 9/11 I Didn't water anything today because things still seemed heavy. I'm noticing the same thing that happened a few years back. Lower secondary or tertiary branches are getting stripped on a couple plants. They never touch the developed buds they want the new shoots. If IT IS ear wigs they are impossible to fight. I put poison down and d.e. around those plantscand we'll see. It could also be rot from dying leaves. I need to treatcsome of the plants with a longer flowering time with plant doctor. I'm going over today to spend a few hours working in the garden. I'll apply something I just don't know WHAT yet. One event horizon looks like it tried to reveg AGAIN which is super weird . I just see a lot of one and 3 finger leaves. It will probably turn out to be great. The other event horizon looks like its going to be incredible. The toasted toffy is getting close too. Temps only reached 62° yesterday. It took FOREVER to shake these plants off. Time to get the leaf blower out. I'm going to bring my trich scope when I go over today. I wanna look at tgat event horizon. Pistols are retracting on the top flowers. This may be a multiple stage harvest. I'll keep this updated. UPDATE: WENT OVER AT FOUR AND WATERED. I MIGHTVE BEEN ABLE TO HOLD OFF UNTIL TOMORROW MORNING BUT I HAVE PLANS EARLY MORNING. I ALSO DEFOLIATED QUITE A BIT. BUDS ARE SWELLING CONSIDERABLY. THE SHERB PIE HAS TURNED COMPLETELY PURPLE. IT HASNT HAD ANY FLOWERS ON IT BUT NOW IT HAS FLOWERS BIGGER THAN A QUARTER! THESE PLANTS ARE VIGEROUSLY FLOWERING. I NEED TO CHECK THE TRICHS ON A COUPLE PLANTS AS THEY DONT HAVE MUCH TIME LEFT. AS I WAS DEFOLIATED I NOTICED THAT SOMWTHING HAD STRIPPED FRESH BUDSITES ON SOME LOWER BRANCHES. IN YEARS PAST THATS ALWAYS BEEN EAR WIGS WHICH ARE IMPISSIBLE TO DEAL WITH. THEY USUALLY DONT TOUCH THE BIG BUDS THOUGH. TJEY LIKE THE FRESY SHOOTS. ILL GO OUT AT NIGHT AND SEE IF THIS IS THE CASE. ITS ONLYVHAPPENING ON A COUPLE PLANTS BUT STILL. THE EVENT HORIZON IN THE MIDDLE IS GROWING DIFFERENT THAN ITS SISTER. YOU CAN TELL THE STRAIN IS THE SAME BUT THIS SEEMED TO REVEG (AGAIN) BECAUSE IM SEEING SMALL FULLY DEVELOPED BUDS THAT I DONT REALLY SEE CONNECTING. CRAZY TRICHS THOUGH. IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE HOW IT COMES OUT. I TREATED THE GMO WITH WPM WITH A QTR GALLON OF K BICARBONATE FOLIAR SPRAY WITH A DROP OF DAWN FOR A SURFICANT. 9/12 Shook everything off and then used the leaf blower to try to better dry them. Weather is lookingvyo be good for the next couple weeks. Perfect finishing weather for my two that are furthest in flower. I may have to do a staged harvest. Some BOTTOM branches on e.h. are FAT and have trichs on trichs. I'll have to use my scope. I'm switching to cha ching next feed for the three furyhest in flower. Maybe four. The sherb pie had NO flowers last week but it's exploding with really compact buds. The whole plant turned purple. I need to be careful of botrytis with this weather. I've been pretty good about leaving and removing any dead or dying leaves. Even the plant in the ten is filling out nice. I have SOMETHING (behaving like earwigs) and eating "fresh" shoots. It's like lollipopping the new growth on a couple plants. I'll becstaying at the grow from now forward so I'll go out tonight and see what I found. The poison I put down seems to be gone. Anyway I'm very grateful for what I've got. I'm update as I go. 9/13 It's sprinkling a half hour trom my grow. I think it's supposed to be nice though. I found some botrytis on two plants. Two are so close to finishing that I need to closely watch them. I don't want botrytis. I applied k bicarb to the middle gmo as I saw a spot of pm. I spent a ton of time defoliating. This cold weather has brought the fade much faster. Trichs are looking good. WENT THROUGH THE PLANTS AND DEFOLIATED A SHIT TON. APPARENTLY THIS EARLY FADE IS NORMAL THIS YEAR. AT LEAST IN ALL MY CANNABIS GROUPS. WENT THROUGH EVERYTJING! STILL HAVE THE MIDDLE EVENT HORIZON I WANT TOO TIE DOWN BUT I DID A LOT OF DEFOLIATION. THIS ALLOWED ME TO FIND A FEW PIECES OF BOTRYTIS. ON MY PLANTS THAT ARE ALMOST DONE. WE HAVE GOOD WEATHER FOR A LITTLE BIT BUT I MAY HAVE REACHED DIMINISHING RETURNS ON A COUPLE. THAT E.V. AND THE TOASTED TOFFY I DONT WANT GETTING WET. THEY ARE TOO DENSE. TRICHS ARE ALL MILKY AND THEYRE SWELLING. IM SLEEPING ON IT BUT IM ALMOST POSITIVE IM GOING TO DO A SELECTIVE HARVEST ON THOSE TWO. IM NOT LETTI G SHIT ROT AND AGTER LOOKING AT THESE UNDER A SCOPE I WOULDS TAKEN THEM YEARS AGO. GMO IS FROSTY AS HELL. EXTREMELY ARONATIC GARDEN. ILL KEEP THIS UPDATED. Decided to hold off feeding and watering. Defoliated a shit ton throughout the day. Around five I noticed that my shittiest GMO with the yellow leaves had a couple dead interior branches. Upon closer inspection it looked like grey mold. A few tiny buds were destroyed but the branch needed to be removed. Jot any big loss but if it's in the shit that doesn't matter than it's around the shit that does. Found info on event horizon flowering time. Middle of September until middle of October. That could be why I'm seeing coke cans on the bottom branches of that phenome. I've got some decisions to make. I mixed up enough water to water in the morning. I'll mix up feed in the morning. Tje garden has gotten a lot of attention lately. I hope it pays off. I'm leaning on a multi staged harvest of the event horizon amd toasted toffy but we'll 9/14 Hurries morning. Mixed water for this morning last night. WATERED AND FED EVERYTHING (BUT TOASTED TOFFY AND EVENT HORIZON #2 DUE TO THEM BEING CHOPPED SOON.) Everything got a gallon of water and a qtr of food. I had to cut a couple small interior secondary branches on my shottiest GMO due to the appearance of grey mold. I also found some botrytis in both the event horizon and toasted toffy that I plan to take the tops of today. I scoped them and I'm planning to do a staged harvest. Trichs are milky with some amber. Everything is blowing up! I'm not sure what's happening but like it previous years there's a couple plants with leaves dieing near bud sites and an overall yellow appearance. Maybe it's late stage septoria. I cant isolate it due to local laws but if I have to I'll deal with it. Nothing else had anything like that. I hace noticed SOMETHING nocturnal that can eat a small branch and leave it bare. Also eat the small newly forming shoots at the bottom of plants. I shouldve taken off ALL the larfy stuff as it draws bugs but I did things a like different with each plant this year. I'm going to go through the plants again today and I'll update what I decide. Chances are the top half of those two plants are coming down. I'll do a video. 9/15 I'll have to add pics and videos tomorrow. Last night I did a final check of the trichs on event horizon #2 and toasted toffy. Everything looked great so I proceeded to do a "wet trim" outside (ill use the leaf blower to clean up) and cut the tops off the plant. I know this injures tje plant but it also makes them go crazy thinking they are dying and the buds and trichs swell. I had one plant last year I got two harvests off and a bunch of fresh frozen for concentrates. I looked this morning and I madecthe right decision. These plants are DONE. I've got another event horizon but it's not quite there yet. I'm going to leave it as long as I can. If the injured plants pick up pm or something (already had septoria) then the flower will be used for extracts or I'll do a Cervantes wash. I imagine concentrates though. One GMO isn't doing as good as the rest. Yesterday I had to cut three branches off due to grey mold on the stalk. If laws allowed it I'd isolate that plant. Luckily since I spend so much time going through the garden I'm able to find this kind of stuff. The GMO'S look wonderful (even the one with some yellow leaves that I cut the branches off) . K bicarb has kept pm at bay so far. This strain has TONS of trichs. It's like trich on trich on trich. I can't wait to try it. It smells amazing. Sherb pie is completely purple with rock hard buds that smell amazing. It's quality over quantity this year. The big one in the 50 (I think red runtz) is swelling more everyday. I'm going to switch to ch ching soon. The plant in the 10 had TOTALLY SUPRISED ME. I've never grown a plant lime this. It started out with dark purple in the middle now buds are swelling and calyxes are EVERYWHERE! This plant is growing extremely fast! You'll see what I mean when I put the pics and the videos up. I'm not going to do the event horizon harvest until I get both plants and all of both plants. It will be a while before I finish the toasted toffy one as well. 9/16 I'm glad I took those plants. Weather is good but plants were soaked thos morning. I need to go out at night and see what is eating new shoots. Flowers are looking great. I need to do another app of k bocarb sometime. I'm suprised the pm has pretty much stayed with that one plant. That two other GMO's flanking it are doing awesome! Purple, sticky stinky. It's got the whole package. The one in the 50 has some huge flowers that won't require much longer. The one invthe 10 has some time left. This is clearly a sativa dominant hybrid. The buds are swelling like crazy. It went from NO buds to having little purple calyxes to flowers that look like cat-tails! I can't wait to see what rhis year brings. Once I get things dry and manicured I'll give you guys a look at how the first stage of the first harvest went. I'm super happy. Spent a large part of this morning shaking plants by handcand removing any dead leaves or anything that could cause rot then I went over them with a leaf blower. I'll need to water tonight I imagine. WATERED AROUND 3:00 PM. MY FAVORITE GMO STARTED DROPPING. WATERED EVERYTHING A GALLON EXCEPT I SPLIT ONE GALLON ON THE PLANTS THAT HAD BEEN CUT. IM EXTREMELY TIRED BUT I NEED TO GO OUT AT NIGHT AND SEE IF I CAN FIND EARWIGS CRAWLING UP THE STALKS. WEATHER STILL LOOKS GOOD. BUDS SWELLING PISTOLS RETRACTING AND MORE AND MORE LEAVES DYING. I CANT BELIEVE THE SIZE OF THAT SATIVA LEANING HYBRID IN THE TEN!

Great strain, would recommend. Nice smoke/vapor, friends love it, stupefying and euphoric, no heavy couch lock like heavy indicas. Taste great in The Mighty vaporizer, citrus with a hint of pine.

💎 8×8 Adventure – Week 13 Black Diamond Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno A Shining Bright Like a Diamond… Because Apparently One Main Cola Wasn't Enough 💎👑✨🌸 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And this week... Well... She's not getting any more humble. 😂💎 Quite the opposite. She's becoming more and more of exactly what her name suggests. BLACK DIAMOND. 💎👑✨ And for some reason, I have a song looping in my head: "Shining bright like a diamond..." 😂😂😂 I KNOW there's a song. And if there wasn't one before... there definitely should be. Because this girl? She's shining like one. 💎✨ She's beautiful. She's dense. She's frosty. She's loaded with flowers. She's got that beautiful main cola. She's got beautiful buds everywhere. And every time I look at her, I find myself smiling. She's one of those plants that doesn't need an introduction anymore. You walk into the room... you see her... and you know. "Yep. That's Black Diamond." 💎🌿👑 She's my precious little diamond coming out of the soil. And now we're watching that diamond continue to develop into something absolutely beautiful. One day she'll be harvested. One day she'll be dried. One day she'll be cured. And eventually... well... that beautiful diamond will become something we can actually enjoy. 😂💎🌸🔥 But we're not there yet. She's still building. She's still shining. She's still showing us what she can do. So let's give this girl the spotlight she deserves. Because honestly... she's fucking stunning. ──────────────────────── 💎 WEEK 13 – SHINING BRIGHT LIKE A DIAMOND Last week we were already talking about this girl becoming ridiculous. Well... Week 13 hasn't exactly brought her back down to earth. 😂 She's still doing it. Still growing. Still building. Still stacking. Still getting denser. Still getting frostier. Still filling those branches with beautiful flowers. And that main cola? Yeah... She's still there. Still demanding attention. Still standing proudly in the middle of everything. 😂👑🌸 But the funny thing is... the main cola isn't even the whole story anymore. Because you look at the main cola... and then you look around... and suddenly there are beautiful flowers everywhere. Everywhere. 😂💎🌸 At this point, I don't even know if "side cola" is the correct terminology anymore. Maybe we should call them: "Other impressive colas." 😂😂😂 Because this girl simply doesn't seem interested in having small supporting actors. Everybody gets a role. Everybody gets flowers. Everybody gets frost. Everybody gets their moment. And somehow... she still manages to make that main cola the star of the show. 💎👑 ──────────────────────── 🌟 SHE REALLY IS SHINING There's something about this girl that photographs don't completely explain. Yes... the photographs show the flowers. They show the density. They show the frost. They show the structure. But when you actually stand in front of her... there's something else. She has presence. She catches your eye. You look at one flower... then another... then another... and suddenly you're standing there smiling like an idiot. 😂😂😂 And that's exactly what happened to me. I walk into the room. I look at her. And there it is again. That damn song in my head. 😂🎶💎 "Shining bright like a diamond..." Well... yes. Exactly. She is. ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE MAIN COLA DESERVES ITS OWN SPOTLIGHT Let's not forget about the star of the show. Her main cola. 💎🌸👑 She's beautiful. She's substantial. She's dense. She's getting more impressive as the weeks go by. And the best part is that she's surrounded by so many other beautiful flowering structures that the whole plant feels like one giant collection of flowers. This is no longer: "Look at the main cola." It's: "Look at the main cola." "Now look over there." "And there." "And there." 😂😂😂 It's like the plant is constantly saying: "You missed one." 👑🌿 And I keep finding more. That's what makes her so impressive. The main cola gets the crown... but the rest of the plant is absolutely not sitting quietly in the background. They're all contributing. They're all developing. They're all becoming dense. They're all getting that beautiful frosty appearance. And together? They make one hell of a plant. ──────────────────────── 💎 DENSE, FROSTY & FULL OF PERSONALITY The density continues to be one of my favourite things about this girl. She's not just producing a lot of flowers. She's producing substantial flowers. Dense. Compact. Full. And increasingly covered in that beautiful resinous sparkle. ❄️💎❄️ The closer you get... the more you see. From a distance: "Beautiful plant." Closer: "Beautiful flowers." Closer still: "Ohhhhh..." 😂🔬💎 That's where the frost starts talking. And she's got plenty to say. She's absolutely shining. The flowers catch the light. The resin catches the light. The whole plant seems to sparkle from different angles. And that's where the Black Diamond name becomes almost too appropriate. 💎👑 ──────────────────────── 👑 MY PRECIOUS DIAMOND I think I've officially become emotionally attached to this girl. 😂 She's mine. My precious diamond. 😂💎👑 Obviously, she belongs to Zamnesia genetically... but you know what I mean. After following a plant for thirteen weeks... watching her grow from the beginning... watching her structure develop... watching the flowers appear... watching the frost arrive... watching the colas become bigger and denser... you develop a relationship with the plant. You know her. You recognize her. And you start looking at her and thinking: "Look at you." 😂💚🌿 That's where I am with Black Diamond Pheno A. She's not just another plant in the 8×8 anymore. She's one of the personalities. One of the characters. One of the girls I walk past and stop to look at. And right now? She's looking absolutely beautiful. ──────────────────────── 💍 FROM SOIL TO DIAMOND And here's where my brain went this week. She's my little diamond coming out of the soil. 💎🌱 But diamonds don't just come out of the ground looking like a beautiful ring. There's a process. They get cut. They get polished. They get shaped. They become something beautiful. And that's the feeling I get when looking at this girl now. She's not finished. She's still in the soil. She's still developing. She's still becoming. But you can already see the potential. You can see the structure. You can see the density. You can see the frost. You can see the beauty. And eventually... after the rest of her journey... she'll become something completely different. Something we can appreciate in another way. 😂💎🌸 But for now? I'm perfectly happy admiring her exactly where she is. Still growing. Still shining. Still becoming. ──────────────────────── 🌿 SAME ROOM – HER OWN MASTERPIECE And once again... let's remember the foundation of this entire adventure. Same 8×8. Same general environment. Same 12/12 schedule. Same irrigation system. Same nutritional foundation. Same lighting philosophy. Same expanded lighting setup. And yet... look at what Black Diamond Pheno A has decided to become. 💎🌿 This is the part of the project that never gets boring. The room gives everybody the same general stage. But genetics write the individual story. The same photons arrive. Different plants interpret them differently. Some stretch. Some stay compact. Some build enormous individual flowers. Some build lots of flowers. Some are slow. Some are fast. And this girl? She's apparently decided: "I'll take those photons... and I'll turn them into diamonds." 😂☀️💎 Fair enough, girl. I'm listening. ──────────────────────── ☀️ MORE PHOTONS – MORE CAPABILITY The expanded Future of Grow lighting setup remains one of the big changes in this room. Those two additional Black Series 600W fixtures have given us considerably more lighting capability. But again... the point isn't simply to blast everything at maximum. We're controlling the output. Approximately: 💡 ~59% power from the plug With around: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with intensity naturally varying according to plant height and position. And Black Diamond is clearly making use of that environment. She's building. She's stacking. She's becoming denser. She's developing those beautiful flowers. And she's shining. A huge thank you once again to Future of Grow for supplying those additional fixtures and allowing us to explore what this expanded setup could do inside the 8×8. More capability. More control. More photons. And twelve different responses. ☀️🌿💎 ──────────────────────── 📸 THIS GIRL IS A PHOTOGRAPHER'S DREAM I think I've reached the point where photographing her is almost unfair. 😂📸 Where do you start? The main cola? Yes. The side branches? Absolutely. The individual flowers? Of course. The frost? Definitely. The whole plant? 100%. And then you realize you've taken another ridiculous number of photographs because every angle looks different. 😂😂😂 Wide shot: "Wow." Closer: "Wow." Macro: "OH." 😂💎🔬 That's what I love about her. She has layers. The whole plant tells one story. The individual colas tell another. And the macro photographs tell another completely different one. That's exactly what I want from these diaries. Not just a weekly picture... but a weekly record of how the plant is changing. And this week? She's giving us plenty to document. ──────────────────────── 🌸 FLOWERS EVERYWHERE This is probably the simplest way I can describe her right now. Flowers. Everywhere. 😂🌸🌸🌸 Upper canopy? Flowers. Main cola? Flowers. Side branches? Flowers. Lower structures? Flowers. And then you move your eyes somewhere else... more flowers. 😂💎 She's filling her architecture beautifully. And that's why the overall plant has become so impressive. It's not dependent on one single giant flower. It's the combination of everything. The main cola. The secondary structures. The side branches. The density. The frost. The way everything is coming together. That's what makes Black Diamond Pheno A special to me. She's not just producing one impressive moment. She's creating an entire plant full of them. ──────────────────────── 💪 STRONG ENOUGH TO CARRY HER OWN CROWN And just like last week... I continue to love the strength of this plant. She's heavy. There's no question about that. 😂 But she's also strong. She's carrying all those flowers with a structure that looks remarkably confident. She's not constantly asking for help. She's simply standing there... looking beautiful... while carrying what she's built. And I really like that. Because the plant isn't only beautiful. She's substantial. She's got structure. She's got strength. She's got flowers. She's got frost. She's got personality. She's got the whole package. 💎👑🌿 That's a phenotype I enjoy following. ──────────────────────── 👀 THE GROWER'S JOB: WATCH And once again... I'm mostly watching. 😂 That's becoming the theme of these later weeks. The plant has already done most of the structural work. Now she's building. So I observe. I photograph. I check. I monitor. I appreciate. And if something needs attention... then we deal with it. Otherwise? Let her shine. 🌿💎 I don't need to constantly touch a beautiful plant just because I can. Sometimes the best thing we can do is simply give the plant the environment... and let the plant show us what she's capable of. And Black Diamond is showing us plenty. ──────────────────────── ⚗️ SAME NUTRITION – SAME FOUNDATION The nutritional programme remains consistent with the room's current flowering approach. 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.3 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ pH adjusted as required Current solution values remain around: ⚗️ pH – ~6.02 ⚡ EC – ~2.14 mS/cm Again... nothing special was created specifically for this girl. She's part of the same room. Same general nutritional foundation. Same environment. Same lighting. And yet... her expression is completely her own. That's the experiment. That's the beauty of the 8×8. Same stage. Different performers. And Black Diamond? She's definitely performing. 😂💎👑 ──────────────────────── 🌡️ WEEK 13 – ROOM CONDITIONS The room remains broadly around: 🌡️ Day temperature: ~26.5°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~26°C 💧 RH: ~61% 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~25°C 💦 Nutrient solution: ~25°C ⚗️ pH: ~6.02 ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: ~693 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 💧 Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h ? Pot size: 15 L Same room. Same framework. Different girl. Different expression. And another beautiful chapter of the 8×8 Adventure. ──────────────────────── 💎 SHE'S EVERYTHING A BLACK DIAMOND SHOULD BE If I had to describe her right now... I'd probably say: 💎 Beautiful 🌸 Dense ❄️ Frosty 👑 Strong 🌿 Substantial ✨ Shining 🔥 Impressive And maybe... 😂 "Absolutely not humble." Because she isn't. She's not hiding. She's not asking for permission. She's standing there saying: "Look at me." 😂👑💎 And you know what? I'm looking. ──────────────────────── 🎶 SHINING BRIGHT LIKE A DIAMOND And yes... that song is still in my head. 😂😂😂 "Shining bright like a diamond..." And now I've decided that it's officially her theme song. If you hear me walking around the grow room humming it... you know why. 😂🎶💎 Because honestly... the name fits. She catches the light. She sparkles. She has that beautiful resinous shine. And she has become one of those plants that immediately attracts your attention. She's a diamond. She's shining. And she's mine to document. 💎🌿👑 Well... you know what I mean. 😂 ──────────────────────── 🔬 THIS IS WHY PHENO HUNTING IS SO MUCH FUN Starting with a seed... you don't know exactly what you're going to get. You can have expectations. You can have experience. You can know the genetics. But eventually... the plant tells you who she is. And Black Diamond Pheno A has been telling us for weeks. She likes building substantial flowers. She likes density. She likes producing plenty of flowering structures. She likes making herself noticed. And she likes shining. 😂💎 That's her personality. And that's exactly what I want to document. Not just: "Here is Black Diamond." But: "Here is THIS Black Diamond." This particular phenotype. This particular expression. This particular story. And that's what makes the 8×8 Adventure so special. ──────────────────────── 🌟 MY DIAMOND FROM THE SOIL I think that's the line I want to remember from this week. My diamond from the soil. 💎🌱 She started as a seed. She became a plant. She developed branches. She created flowers. She started stacking. She became dense. She became frosty. And now... she's shining. That's a pretty beautiful journey. And we're still not at the end. There's still more to come. More development. More evolution. More observation. More photographs. And eventually... the final chapter. But we're not rushing it. She's still writing the story. And I'm happy to watch. ──────────────────────── 🔮 WHAT COMES NEXT? More of the same... and hopefully even more beauty. 😂💎 We'll keep watching the flowers. We'll keep watching the density. We'll keep watching the frost. We'll keep watching the structure. We'll keep documenting the changes. And we'll let her decide when she's ready for the next chapter. No unnecessary rushing. No forcing the story. No pretending we know exactly what tomorrow looks like. We're simply watching. And right now? What we're watching is beautiful. ──────────────────────── 💭 FINAL THOUGHTS – SHINE ON, MY LITTLE DIAMOND Week 13. Black Diamond Auto Pheno A. And honestly... what a fucking beautiful plant. 💎👑🌿🔥 She's not humble. She's not shy. She's not hiding. She's shining. Like a diamond. Like a star. Like whatever the hell that song is talking about... 😂🎶💎 She's got a beautiful main cola. She's got beautiful flowers everywhere. She's dense. She's frosty. She's strong. She's substantial. She's becoming more and more impressive every single week. And I absolutely love her. She's one of those plants that makes you stop. Makes you smile. Makes you take another photograph. Then another. Then another. 😂📸 And eventually you're standing there thinking: "Okay... I think we've got enough." And then you find another angle. 😂💎 That's Black Diamond. She's my precious diamond coming out of the soil. Still becoming. Still developing. Still shining. And one day... after her entire journey is complete... she'll be ready for the next transformation. Cut. Trimmed. Dried. Cured. Polished in her own way. And eventually... she'll become something very different from the plant standing in front of me today. But for now? She's still my beautiful diamond in the soil. 💎🌱👑 So let's give her the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's admire that main cola. Let's admire all those beautiful flowers around her. Let's appreciate the density. Let's appreciate the frost. Let's appreciate the genetics. And let's keep watching. Because this girl? She's absolutely stunning. 💎✨🌸🌿🔥 Shine on, my precious Black Diamond. Keep doing what you do. And keep making me smile every time I walk into the room. ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU As always, a massive thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share the experience with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Black Diamond genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover and follow this absolutely beautiful phenotype. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the room throughout this adventure. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to explore this expanded lighting setup inside the 8×8. 💡☀️🌿 Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the deeper areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us monitor and manage the environment behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by to watch these girls develop. It genuinely means a lot. 💚 This 8×8 Adventure continues to remind me why I love growing. Twelve plants. One shared environment. Different genetics. Different expressions. Different personalities. And Black Diamond Pheno A? She's giving us one hell of a story. 💎👑 She's strong. She's dense. She's frosty. She's beautiful. She's loaded with flowers. And apparently... she's got her own soundtrack. 😂🎶💎 "Shining bright like a diamond..." Yes. That's the one. I'm keeping it. 😂😂😂 So let's give my precious diamond the spotlight she deserves. Let's let her shine. Let's watch her continue to develop. Let's admire every beautiful flower. Let's appreciate the frost. And let's see what this girl decides to show us next. Because she isn't finished yet. She's still becoming. Still shining. Still growing. Still writing her story. 💎🌿👑🌸✨ Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle... where one Black Diamond continues to shine brighter than ever, the main cola still thinks she's the star, the side colas apparently refuse to accept supporting roles, and your DogDoctor is walking around the room humming a song that was apparently written specifically for this girl. 😂🎶💎👑 Shine bright, my precious diamond. Let her shine. 💎✨💚🌱

En general, ha sido una buena cosecha para terminar este 2021, una experiencia que le recomendaría a cualquier cultivador, en una planta asombrosa. Ahí podéis ver algunas de las copas mas grandes del cultivo.

Es sind noch ein paar cm dazu gekommen und ich bin mit der Blütenentwicklung recht zufrieden. Der Bereich um die Blüten ist wundervoll bepudert. Das Wetter bleibt wechselhaft bis schlecht! Das Wetter bessert sich, leider habe ich einen massiven Befall von Trauermücken, Nematoden sind bestellt.

Si cresce... 🌱... 🌲

Week 10: Buds are stacking and the frost is building! Observations: Week 10 is in the books and the girls are looking beautiful! The bud sites are really starting to fatten up and stack nicely. We are seeing some great trichome production developing on the sugar leaves, giving them a nice frosty look. Looking closely at the pistils, we have a mix right now. Many are still bright white and shooting straight out, which means the calyxes are still swelling and the plant is actively packing on weight. However, on some of the more mature colas, the pistils are just starting to darken, turn orange/brown, and curl inward. Plant Health & Nutrients: Overall, the canopy looks healthy and vigorous. The fan leaves are a very deep, rich, dark green. I did notice some very minor nutrient burn (crispy brown tips) on the edges of some leaves. It's nothing major to worry about, but it tells me the plant is right at its absolute limit for nutrients. I might dial back the feeding/EC slightly (especially the Nitrogen, given how dark the leaves are) so I don't stress her out as she finishes up flower. Next Steps: Going to keep the environment dialed in, keep an eye on those leaf tips, and just let her do her thing! The smell is really starting to come through now.
