Last week I realized that topping off the rez with full strength nutrient water had upped my ppms to 2000, and Ph to almost 7 I mixed a fresh batch of 10ml and saw ppms in the 1700 range, so I watered it down to 1200, 8 ml/gal is just an estimate this week unfortunately. I added 2.5 ml/gal big bud day 1 week 3 afternoon, Ppms should coming in at 1300 I finally got an accurate height measurement, and given the plant distance decided to turn the light power down to 60%, which should be around 120-130 watts, which is plenty for a 2x2 Did a water change week 3 day 1, used a transfer pump and it was fairly easy, just took a while More pistils are starting to show up now I've decided to start measuring ppm/ph as both creeped up too high last week. I cant vouch for how well ph perfect nutes work when changed weekly as directed, but they cant go 2 weeks without being measured and adjusted, and at full strength, Im sure they would burn plants. Day 2: ppms held steady at 1350 overnight, ph is at 5.8-5.9 New growth was showing very early signs of light burn, (pale leaf tips up top, tips not pointing down) so I turned light to 50% power, mounted it straight to my top tent supports, and bent the tops that showed signs of stress. Day 3: Ppm's still holding steady as water level goes down, so this may be the sweet spot for now. Bud sites are stacking now Selectively defoliated to get light deeper into the canopy

I harvested today and took the time to remove most large and non frosted leaves. I didn't realise how much weight the scrog was holding. once the net removed all 4 plants were unable to hold the weight. That's a good thing....I think. I decided to go with another flo-week entry rather than using the harvest option on growdiary. I believe it asks too many information that I don't have at this point.

Mainly just monitoring things this week and watering and on humidity control. Got a deal on a large 20 inch fan and added it to the gorilla tent. and a deal on a Honeywell oscillating fan i added to the other flowering tent. Nighttime humidity has been hard to control even with my dehumidifier running while lights are off in the lung room. I want to run it during lights on but running into wattage issues on certain circuits i don't want to overload i only have 15 amp breakers. At was at least able to convince the "roomates" to let me set the nighttime house ac down to 73, so that was able to help me get tent temps down from high 80's to the low 80's during their "daytime" while having the light 100 percent. Vivosun tent is doing a little better with the humidity. I have a little more wattage in the lights and the canopy is a little more manageable so not transpiring as much. Towards the end of the week they hit a wall at their drinking and noticed a little more run-off than usual which is little to about a quart. out of 6-8 gallons in each time. One of the waterings this week included some microbe and fungal inoculant to give the rootzone an extra boost now that the plants are going to focus more on feeding themselves. adding a little bit of azomite to the water in the hopes theirs trace amounts of soluble silica in it. I want to start using a water soluble silica specific feed but I haven't found anything that's completely organic and soluble so that's why i opted to add some silica fixing microbes to fill any gaps the boogie brew may not be filling.

๐Ÿฌ Candy Rain Auto by Zamnesia | Week 11 โœจ The Glamorous Survivor Is Bulking Up Welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š Well... Our other solo survivor is still doing exactly what she has been doing from the beginning. Her own thing. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฌ And honestly? I'm really starting to love the way this girl is developing. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's putting flowers absolutely everywhere. She's developing a beautiful structure. She's maintaining that gorgeous colour. And those pistils... Oh, those pistils. ๐Ÿ˜ They're not the bright, almost pure white we're seeing on some of the other girls. They're starting to carry a warmer, slightly yellowish tone. And against that beautiful green foliage and developing flowers? It looks absolutely gorgeous. She's becoming one of those plants where you don't need anything dramatic to happen. You just walk in... look at her... and smile. Because she's doing beautifully. ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’šโœจ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โœจ THE SOLO SURVIVOR KEEPS SHINING โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ I think by now we've officially moved past the "survivor" part of the story. ๐Ÿ˜‚ She survived. She established herself. She grew. She flowered. And now? She's building. Big time. Candy Rain continues to develop at her own rhythm, and what I'm really enjoying this week is how much more substantial the flowering structure is becoming. She's not simply maintaining flowers anymore. She's building them. Stacking them. Bulking them. And filling her plant with them. This girl has flowers everywhere. ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ And somehow she still maintains that elegant, calm personality we've come to know. She's not screaming for attention. She's just quietly becoming more and more impressive. And honestly... that's a beautiful way to grow. 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 SHE'S STACKING โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This is probably the biggest thing catching my attention this week. The stacking. The flowers are building on top of the structure we've been watching develop over the previous weeks. Individual flowering sites are becoming increasingly substantial. The bud structures are becoming more defined. And when you look across the plant, you start seeing flowers everywhere you look. This is the point where all those earlier weeks of development start paying off visually. The framework was built. The flowers appeared. The flowers developed. And now they're beginning to bulk. It's really satisfying to watch. Because this isn't one impressive cola doing all the work. It's the whole plant participating. Flower after flower. Branch after branch. Stack after stack. ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”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’š BUDS EVERYWHERE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ One of the things I really like about Candy Rain is how evenly she seems to be filling her space. Look around her... there are flowers everywhere. And that's what makes her so enjoyable to photograph. You can start with the whole plant. Then you find one branch. Then another. Then another flower. And suddenly you're wondering how you didn't notice all those flowers before. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ She's becoming increasingly full. The individual flowers are gaining presence. The structure is becoming more substantial. And the overall plant is starting to look like one beautiful flowering mass rather than simply a plant that happens to have flowers on it. She's getting there. And she's getting there beautifully. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒผ THOSE PISTILS... โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Now let's talk about something I particularly noticed this week. The pistils. ๐Ÿ˜ They're beautiful. But they're not the same bright white we're seeing on some of the other girls. Candy Rain is giving us a slightly warmer expression. A little more yellowish. A little more golden. And against the green foliage? It's stunning. There's something about that warmer tone that gives the flowers a completely different character. It's subtle. It's not screaming for attention. But once you notice it... you keep noticing it. And that's exactly what I love about phenotype hunting. Sometimes the differences aren't enormous. Sometimes they're little details. A slightly different colour. A slightly different structure. A different rhythm. A different way of stacking. And those little differences become part of the identity of the plant. Candy Rain has her own signature. ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ’š 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 THE FROST IS STILL THERE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ And of course... we can't forget the resin. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ„๏ธ The flowers continue developing that beautiful frosty character. The closer you look, the more detail appears. Trichomes. Pistils. Flower structure. Texture. All those little things happening simultaneously. And this is exactly where photography becomes dangerous again. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ You take one photograph. Then you see something interesting. So you move closer. Then you see even more. And before you know it, you've been staring at one flower for ten minutes. But that's the beauty of this stage. The plants are giving us more and more detail to discover. And Candy Rain has plenty. 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 BEAUTIFUL COLOUR, BEAUTIFUL CONTRAST โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Another thing I continue to really like about this girl is the colour. Those deep greens. The flowers developing against them. The warmer pistils. The frost developing across the flower surfaces. Everything is coming together beautifully. She's got that rich, almost classic flowering-plant appearance. Nothing feels out of place. Nothing is screaming for attention. It's simply... balanced. And sometimes balance is what makes a plant beautiful. Candy Rain doesn't need to be the strangest plant in the room. She doesn't need to be the tallest. She doesn't need to have the most unusual structure. She simply needs to be herself. And she's doing that extremely well. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ SAME ROOM. SAME WORLD. DIFFERENT STORY. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ And once again, we come back to the heart of the 8ร—8 Adventure. For anyone discovering this diary now: We're growing twelve different plants together under the same general ecosystem. Same room. Same lighting philosophy. Same 12/12 schedule. Same environmental strategy. Same general nutritional program. Same grower. Same attention. And yet... look at how differently they express themselves. Some stretch. Some stay compact. Some race ahead. Some take their time. Some become extremely frosty. Some build enormous structures. Some have unusual colours. And Candy Rain? She has become this beautiful, balanced, flower-loaded survivor who is now quietly bulking up all over the place. That's what makes this experiment so enjoyable. The environment gives them the opportunity. Genetics decide what they do with it. ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’š 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 PHOTONS, SAME GIRL โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The lighting environment has also received its upgrade. We've added two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures to the room. When we first brought the extra lighting in, the available PPFD was higher than we wanted for our target. So rather than simply throwing everything at the plants... we reduced the output. We're now around: ๐Ÿ’ก ~59% power from the plug with approximately: โ˜€๏ธ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy and naturally less depending on plant height and position. That's one of the things I really like about having more lighting capability. We don't have to run everything at maximum. We can have the photons available... and decide how many we actually want to use. And Candy Rain? She's receiving the same upgraded environment as everybody else. Same photons. Same room. Same conditions. And she's responding in her own way. ๐Ÿ’ก๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿฌ 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 THE ARTIFICIAL SUN KEEPS SHINING โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ There is something really fascinating about watching twelve plants receive essentially the same artificial sun... and then seeing twelve different interpretations of it. We give them photons. They decide what to do with them. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Candy Rain is clearly putting hers to work. She's building flowers. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's maintaining beautiful foliage. And she's continuing to develop without asking us to reinvent the entire grow around her. That's exactly the kind of relationship I like with a plant. Provide. Observe. Adjust when necessary. And let the plant do the rest. ๐ŸŒฑโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ’š 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€“ A LITTLE MORE FUEL โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The nutrition has also been adjusted together with the rest of the room. Terra Bloom has moved from: ๐ŸŒฑ 2.2 ml/L โ†’ 2.3 ml/L while the rest of the flowering program remains: ๐ŸŒฑ Terra Bloom โ€“ 2.3 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Power Buds โ€“ 1 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Green Sensation โ€“ 1 ml/L ๐ŸŒฑ Sugar Royal โ€“ 1 ml/L โš—๏ธ pH adjustment as required That small increase has brought the solution strength up slightly. Current readings are around: โš—๏ธ pH โ€“ ~6.02 โšก EC โ€“ ~2.14 mS/cm And Candy Rain is responding beautifully. Again... nothing special just for her. No secret recipe. No different room. No special treatment. Same nutritional strategy as the rest of the girls. And she's taking it... and building. ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒธ 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 WEEK 11 โ€“ CURRENT CONDITIONS โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ The room is currently sitting around: ๐ŸŒธ Flowering: Week 11 ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule: 12/12 ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature: ~26.5ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature: ~26ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง Relative humidity: ~61% โš—๏ธ pH: ~6.02 โšก EC: ~2.14 mS/cm ๐Ÿ’ฆ Nutrient solution temperature: ~25ยฐC ๐ŸŒฑ Substrate temperature: ~25ยฐC ๐Ÿ’จ COโ‚‚: ~693 ppm ? Pot size: 15 L ๐Ÿ’ง Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h Same room. Same environment. Same upgraded lighting. Same nutritional adjustment. Same overall strategy. And Candy Rain is continuing to show us her own interpretation. ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’š 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 SHE'S BULKING NOW โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ This is the part I'm really enjoying. We're moving beyond: "She's flowering." We're now seeing: "She's building flowers." And that's a different feeling. The flowers are gaining volume. The structures are becoming more substantial. The stacking is becoming more obvious. And there are so many of them. This is where the plant starts becoming visually rewarding in a completely different way. Earlier, we were watching for flower formation. Now we're watching what those flowers become. And Candy Rain is giving us plenty to watch. ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”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ฌ THE GLAMOROUS SURVIVOR HAS EVOLVED โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Maybe "Glamorous Survivor" isn't quite enough anymore. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Because now she's becoming: โœจ The Glamorous Survivor Who Came to Bulk. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒธ She survived. She established herself. She became beautiful. She entered flowering. She developed her structure. She stacked. And now... she's bulking. There's something very satisfying about seeing that progression. Especially because we never really knew what this girl was going to become when the adventure started. She was simply the one that remained. And now she's one of the plants I genuinely look forward to checking every week. That's a pretty good evolution. 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 GOING TO HAVE FUN โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ With the way the flowers are developing now, I already know the camera is going to have plenty of work. Wide shots will show the overall structure. Closer shots will show the stacking. And macro? ๐Ÿ˜‚ Macro is going to become dangerous again. Because those warmer pistils. Those developing trichomes. Those flower structures. That frost. The textures. All of it deserves a closer look. Candy Rain is becoming one of those plants where every step closer reveals something else. And I love that. 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’š NO NEED TO FORCE 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”€ One thing hasn't changed. I'm still not trying to make her into something she's not. She's healthy. She's growing. She's flowering. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's maintaining beautiful colour. She's developing exactly as we'd like to see. So... why interfere unnecessarily? At this stage, sometimes the best thing a grower can do is simply keep the environment stable and let the plant finish expressing itself. We've already done the work needed to establish the structure. Now? Let her shine. Let her build. Let her show us what she's capable of. ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’šโœจ 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 DOESN'T NEED THE CROWN โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ And that's another thing I love about Candy Rain. She's not trying to win anything. She doesn't seem interested in competing with the other girls. She's just doing her own thing. Some of the girls are fighting for attention. Some are absolutely screaming: "LOOK AT ME!" ๐Ÿ˜‚ Candy Rain? She's standing there with her beautiful flowers and warmer pistils like: "I'm good." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฌ And honestly... that's enough. She doesn't need the crown. She just needs her spotlight. And this week... she's getting it. 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” WHAT AM I WATCHING NOW? โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ At this point, my attention is going toward: ๐ŸŒธ How much more will the flowers bulk? ๐ŸŒฟ How much more will the stacking develop? โ„๏ธ How much more resin will appear? ๐ŸŒผ How will those warmer pistil colours evolve? ๐Ÿ’š How will the foliage continue to look as the plant matures? And most importantly... how far will this beautiful survivor take her story? We're still not finished. There are still chapters left. So I'm simply watching. And enjoying. ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’š โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โœจ LET HER SHINE โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ So... Week 11. Candy Rain Auto. Our other solo survivor. And she's looking fantastic. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's developing flowers everywhere. She's building beautiful structure. She's becoming increasingly frosty. She's maintaining those gorgeous deep greens. And those slightly warmer, yellowish pistils are giving her a character all of her own. She's not trying to be another plant. She's not trying to match another phenotype. She's simply being Candy Rain. And honestly? I love it. ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’šโœจ So let's make her shine. Let's give this girl the spotlight. Let's appreciate what she's building. And let's see how much more she has left to show us. 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 โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Another week. Another chapter. And another reminder that sometimes the most unexpected plants become some of the most enjoyable ones to follow. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a place to document these journeys, share experiences and learn together. Thank you to Zamnesia for the genetics behind our beautiful Candy Rain survivor. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting the garden. Thank you to Future of Grow for providing the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and helping us expand the lighting capability of the room. ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’š Thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into the deeper parts of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable behind the scenes. And, of course... thank you to everyone following the 8ร—8 Adventure. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person who stops by to see what the girls are doing this week. It genuinely means a lot. And Candy Rain? Our solo survivor is still here. Still beautiful. Still growing. Still stacking. Still bulking. Still shining. And now... looking more and more like a girl who has decided she's going to make every flower count. ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒธโœจ She started this adventure simply because she was the one who remained. Now she's become one of the girls I genuinely enjoy watching every single week. The Glamorous Survivor. The Solo Survivor. The Flower-Loaded Survivor. And this week... the Bulking Survivor. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’š Let's keep watching. Let's keep documenting. Let's keep photographing. And let's let this beautiful girl continue doing what she does best. Growing in her own rhythm. Building in her own way. And shining without ever needing to ask for the spotlight. Because this week... the spotlight belongs to Candy Rain. ๐Ÿฌโœจ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ‘‘ Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿฌ

Sour Wiz is still in veg. 7 weeks. Looking fantastic. EAsiest strain to grow so far. 0 issues and respond so everything well. Once I can sex Iโ€™ll separate and start planning to flower. Skywalker OG is still going great in week 9 of flower. STARTING to see a lot of bud structure and white hairs. Northern Lights is still surprising because it was so mutated and now its thriving.

Starting off week 2 with some issues. I have noticed a lightening of the leaf edges and slight crinkling on the leaves. I have ran into this type of issue in the past and I suspected it to be a root bound issue. This time I am not completely sure. I will up pot by the end of this week and compare. I was busy with the holidays so I put the humidity dome back on before I went and up the size of the growing containers. I think it helped out and you can see that they perked up with the high humidity under the dome. I believe the lighter green edges is a mag deficiency. I will add more cal-mag during next weeks feedings.

Took a while to get there but OMG little note quick! So I started her in a 1 litre pot and stuck her on top of a 1.5L Pepsi bottle with the top chopped off! And she yielded heavily for that amount of soil a whopping! 224.63 wet weight so canโ€™t wait to see what she holds dry because them buds were like boulders! So dense! I will be back to document her dry weight and then a couple of weeks later with the update on the smoke report! But I know itโ€™s going to be so loud! She has deep pungent aromas like gassy and sweet! Sheโ€™s going to be a powerhouse! She was a little over as today a banana developed but that just tells me โ€œwell doneโ€ timing just right! Sheโ€™s a little long for my taste of auto but I do suggest anyone grow her sheโ€™s amazing! In the end!

High GD community, Week 6, Wonder pie doing fine. She keeps her tempo steady, not really fast, but she keeps developing. Some of the side branches starting to take form and first lining is a fact. Ive removed 9 leafs, so te center gets more open for the small branches trying to come up. I think i should cut the internodes that are up and down, but i only cutted the one underneath. If anyone is convinced its better to get rid of the upperone 2, please comment. I do thinl it might cause problems in a few weeks, bcs it will grow up instead of out to the sides, so, hormone regulation will change, slow down the outgrowing buds and extra pump up these internodes. Enough rambling about that, lets talk about the plant intirely, bit by bit she starts to look like something i have in mind. ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ”ฌ Just spraying ph 6.2water and 1 feeding this week. 3 waterings this week, 1 with nuts. Thats it for this week boys๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐ŸŒพ and girls๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸŒพ, Grow safe buds and feel free to check out my other ladies doing fine, ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฟ ๐Ÿ™๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ™

day71: she looks fine, we have 2 weeks more :) day72: 2500 ppm is a level that can be considered toxic for many species. This species exhibits a truly unusual feeding habit. Sometimes I get into trouble because it contradicts general feeding idea. But DWC cultivation is not something that can be done by old habbits or toughts. The plant clearly shows what it wants. 2500 ppm 5.8 stable. day73: She is happy I am too:D day74: She drunk 8lt. yesterday ppm raised to 3500 and ofcourse ph dropped to 4.7. I fixed it to 2200ppm and 5.8 ph. day75: so stable day76: without any drama :D

27-08-2026 Somehow itโ€™s hard for me to keep updating the progress of my cannabisplants. I wanted to do it weekly, but it just doesnโ€™t happen. Our fruits and vegetables need to be harvested and our animals want a lot of attention too! Iโ€™m so happy growing with Biotabs, I hardly have to do anything and if I donโ€™t have time, my plants are growing anyway In week 16 (first signs of pre-flowering) all the plants got watered with 5 litres of water with 20 ml of Bio PK 5-8 and in week 20 again, 20 ml of Bio PK 5-8 diluted in 5 litres of water. This is the third time I had to water the plants manually. I just love this way of growing. Perfect for someone with a chronic illness. Flowering started earlier than last year. Iโ€™m so happy, maybe these Early Versions will finish in time, before the autumn rains are coming. The plants have a nice green colour. I still need to โ€˜shave the legsโ€™ and cut some branches and leaves away at the inside of the plant. Especially now when it rains sometimes I want them to dry quickly. I already removed two baskets of leaves and small branches from NL x Big Bud and Burger Kush. GMO Fast isnโ€™t flowering yet. She is only showing a few pre-flower hairs. I think she wonโ€™t make it in timeโ€ฆ GMO Fast also had some issues during a summer storm with heavy winds and rain. One of her main branches came down. It was still attached to the centre of the plant, but it began to rot and I had to cut it out. I lost 25% of this plant. Itโ€™s my own fault. She is over 2,5 metres now and her height makes her susceptible for wind. It makes me think about securing all my plants with long bamboo-poles or sticks. If the flowers start growing, all those branches will get heavy eventually. Maybe itโ€™s time to prioritize the cannabisplants at this momentโ€ฆ

Week 6 / flowering Everything is looking good so far. The plants are stacking weight nicely and there are no major nutrient lockout issues at the moment. The next couple of weeks will be all about keeping things balanced and not pushing them too hard before flush week.There was a minor heat-stress burn during a temperature spike, but itโ€™s under control now. The purple colors from the genetics are starting to come through on some phenos, which is great to see.
