Currently checking daily and tying away branches/leaves to give the buds more light and watering when the soil is dry. Currently my plants drink exactly 1,5L a day. I have the feeling that the right plant is lacking a bit of potassium. I'll leave everything as it is for now because the left plant (fresh new soil) is growing well. Since the right plant is quite bushy anyway, I'll defoliate it again later and remove any lower shoots. I started adding the Bio PK booster towards the middle of the first week of flowering, 2ml per liter of water; as the pH value drops too much, I correct it upwards with Biobizz pH up - from pH 5.5 to 6.5 for 3L, I add a total of 39 drops. My water is mixed as follows: 3L osmosis water, plus 6ml CalMag, 6ml BioPK 5-8 and 39 drops of pH + BioBizz.

🌿 Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 5 (Early Flower) 🌱 The Stretch Is Over, the Show Is Beginning Every week inside the 8×8 Adventure feels like another chapter unfolding, and Frosted Guava Pheno A has officially entered one of the most exciting stages of her life. From the moment she germinated under our 12/12 From Seed experiment, her goal has been to prove that autoflowers can still build impressive structure and healthy development under a flowering light schedule from day one. Now, after weeks of careful Low Stress Training, patient leaf tucking, and allowing her natural architecture to develop, she has fully transitioned into flowering. This week isn’t about explosive vegetative growth anymore. It’s about transformation. The first real flowers are forming, the canopy is alive with brilliant white pistils, and every branch is beginning to reveal the framework that will eventually become her harvest. ⸻ 🌸 Week 5 – Frosted Guava Finds Her Rhythm The flowering transition couldn’t have gone much smoother. Standing at approximately 99 cm, Frosted Guava has developed into a beautifully balanced medium-sized plant that fills her space naturally without becoming overwhelming. The stretch is slowing down, allowing more energy to shift toward flower production rather than vertical growth. One of the things I enjoy most about this phenotype is her internodal spacing. Every branch has enough room to breathe while remaining close enough together to promise excellent bud stacking in the weeks ahead. Nothing feels crowded, nothing feels sparse—it simply looks naturally well built. Looking from above, the canopy is incredibly satisfying. Looking from the side, her structure tells exactly the same story. Healthy. Balanced. Ready. ⸻ 🌿 Training & Canopy Development Throughout vegetative growth the focus has remained on keeping the canopy open instead of forcing the plant into an artificial shape. Regular Low Stress Training combined with gentle leaf repositioning has allowed every developing branch to receive strong light without creating unnecessary stress. Those small adjustments are beginning to pay off now. Multiple flowering sites are receiving excellent exposure, air movement through the canopy remains unrestricted, and each branch has space to develop independently. Sometimes the simplest training methods produce the most natural-looking plants. Frosted Guava is becoming a perfect example of exactly that. ⸻ ? The First Flowers One of my favorite moments in every grow is watching those first clusters of bright white pistils appear. This week they’re everywhere. Each tiny white hair is another confirmation that flowering is fully underway, marking the locations where future buds will continue building over the coming weeks. The tops are already beginning to gather themselves into small floral clusters, while every node along the branches is joining the party with fresh pistils reaching toward the light. There’s something incredibly satisfying about this stage. Everything still looks delicate… Yet you already know what’s coming. ⸻ 🍃 Plant Health Color remains outstanding across the entire canopy. The foliage carries a beautiful healthy green tone from top to bottom, with fresh new growth emerging vibrant and full of life. Leaf posture remains excellent, stems continue thickening nicely, and the plant simply gives the impression of being comfortable in her environment. There are no distractions. She’s focused entirely on growing flowers now. ⸻ 💧 Nutrition & Irrigation With flowering now established, Frosted Guava is receiving the complete transition feeding program alongside the rest of the room. Current feeding: • Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L • Terra Bloom — 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • Power Roots — 1 ml/L • Power Buds — 1 ml/L Maintaining: * EC: 1.88 mS/cm * pH: 6.05 The AutoPot system continues delivering consistent irrigation, allowing the root zone to remain stable while supporting the increasing nutritional demands that come with early flower. Everything is progressing exactly as planned. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment The entire room continues operating as one stable ecosystem, giving every phenotype the same opportunity to express its unique characteristics. Current conditions: * Day temperature: 31.1°C * Night temperature: 25°C * Relative humidity: 72% * Solution temperature: 21.6°C * Root zone temperature: 21°C * CO₂: approximately 639 ppm Despite the warm summer conditions, the plants continue responding exceptionally well thanks to stable irrigation, healthy roots, strong airflow, and carefully maintained environmental consistency. The room continues doing the heavy lifting. The plants simply reward it. ⸻ 👀 Looking Ahead Now the fun really begins. Over the next couple of weeks, I expect the vertical stretch to gradually come to an end as Frosted Guava redirects nearly all of her energy toward building flowers. Those tiny white pistils will soon develop into recognizable bud sites, resin production will begin increasing, and the beautiful open structure she’s built throughout vegetative growth should translate into excellent light penetration and strong flower development across the entire canopy. She’s entering the stage every grower waits for. And she’s entering it beautifully. ⸻ 🙏 Final Thoughts Frosted Guava Pheno A is exactly where I hoped she would be at this point in the grow. Healthy. Balanced. Beautifully structured. She’s a reminder that successful flowering starts long before the first pistils appear. Every careful adjustment during vegetative growth—from LST to leaf tucking—has helped create the strong framework she’s now using to build what promises to be an impressive canopy of flowers. Watching each phenotype develop its own personality inside this shared environment continues to be one of the most rewarding parts of this entire 8×8 Adventure. A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making this project possible, Plagron for providing outstanding nutrition, Future of Grow for powering the room with exceptional lighting, AutoPot for keeping the root zone thriving, TrolMaster for maintaining environmental precision, and to everyone following this journey here on GrowDiaries. Your support, advice, and encouragement continue to make this adventure even more rewarding. Until next week… Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💚

**5/2** So I've been absent from the log for about a week, I'm sorry to those that check up on my grows. It wont happen again promise lol. Well it looks like the NL and Chem are suffering from N toxicity and possibly a Cal/Mag deficiency, where the PL has signs of Cal/Mag deficiency as well. I will be adding just a bit more this week each feed. I usually do a nutes and Cal/Mag feed then a water and Cal/Mag feed. Chemdawg is stacking up the trichomes on each nug site and shes at day 51, smells kinda citrusy. The Northern Lights is at day 52 and in last place in terms of flower only a small amount of trichomes on 1 or 2 nugs. Where as the Purple Lemonade is at day 46 and these nugs are getting CHUNKY while also putting out trichomes, with a slight rub she gives off a strong fruity/berry aroma. **5/7** Looks like Northern Lights is a slow girl, I'm not mad just my impatient self wanting to see her in her glory. Ahh the Chemdawg is packing on some weight and looks very chunky, shes smelling sweet too. Well I didnt get the desirable purple pheno Purple Lemonade seems more towards the Lemonade side, but she has many great golf ball like nugs that are still growing.

Le stretch est vraiment ridicule, je voulais que ça monte jusqu'en haut... Tant pis... En tout cas la flo est lancée 😁 Dans l'ordre: 1) Afghan Peach x Blue Monkey 2) Gelato Cake 3) Fast Critical Poison 4) Tropical Fuel 5) Hindu Kush 6) (Blueberry x Black Domina) X (Kosher Kush x Mk-Ultra) 7) Blueberry 8) Herz OG 9) (Blueberry x Black Domina) X (Kosher Kush x Mk-Ultra)

28.07.25 all plants are doing fine, pests are contained and yesterday each plant got 95g of flowering fertilizer top dressing. This should last until I return from the holidays. While tip dressing I noticed that the pots are now full of root webs almost to the top, the extra layer of soil and fertilizer is definitely welcome. The empty spot from the auto Lemon Kix was filled with a quick sherbet clone.

Good week of growth! All 3 were topped on day 20. One is growing quicker than others. Plant height and distance from light based on smaller 2 plants. Photos/video are day 22 since breaking the soil.

14.10.24 BT# 24 Servus Leute ✌️ Woche 4 der Blüte ist angebrochen und die Pineapple Express riecht immer mehr nach Ananas. Ihre Buds werden immer dicker und bekommen langsam eine Struktur, die Buds sind ziemlich fest (Dicht). Die Farben erinnern auch immer mehr an eine Ananas Barney's Farm hat da ein ganz feinen Strain entwickelt mit einer sehr guten Gentik. Gestern gab es wieder Nährstoffe mit ner Extra Portion Phosphor was sie jetzt dringend braucht. Vielen Dank fürs Vorbeischauen das nächste Update kommt nächste Woche in diesem Sinne bleibt Cool & Stay High. Mögen all eure Ladys Gesund und prächtig wachsen und euch mit schmackhaften Stuff versorgen 💚😍 ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ 14.10.24 BT# 24 Hi folks ✌️ Week 4 of flowering has begun and Pineapple Express smells more and more like pineapple. Her buds are getting thicker and thicker and slowly getting a structure, the buds are quite firm (dense). The colors also remind more and more of a pineapple. Barney's Farm has developed a very fine strain with very good genetics. Yesterday she was given nutrients again with an extra portion of phosphorus, which she now urgently needs. Thanks for stopping by, the next update will be next week so stay cool & stay high. May all your ladies grow healthy and splendid and provide you with tasty stuff 💚😍

Todo su desarrollo fue perfecto, resistió mucho cuando aveces la humedad subía en la carpa. En todo su ciclo estuvo bien sin ningún problema. Recomiendo cultivar esta cepa ya que los resultados que da son muy buenos.

*English below* La planta está terminando su sexado, comenzando flora, día 2. El stretching fue una locura, de una planta de 70 cm (que use la mitad para hacer esquejes), en solo 15 días crecio arriba de 1.5 m. La primavera en buenos aires acompaño con un clima perfecto los últimos dos meses. La planta tuvo 70 días de vegetativo. 2 day blooming, the stretching was massive, the plant was 75cm and now it's more than the double of that size. Half of the plant was used for clons, so in 15 days of stretching, 35 cm of plant became this.

Day 63. She is going down, my fastest ever big healthy plant. Looking at first waves 3 numbers, I think it's not even 2 ounces plant, it's f@cking THREE !!! ;)))))))))))) Day 71. One to jars another for trim jail. Busy day ... Day 72. After small delay, she went down ;) Day 82. Straight to vacuum sacs, but she was really great ! Happy Growing !!!

CONTEST SWEET SEEDS SWEET SEEDS SWEET GELATO GROWER ADRY www.teknogrow.it Instagram @teknogrow

All 4 seeds popped, 2 were wicked, but straightened out within the first week. Had them in coco pucks and a dome, with saturated concrete perlite

Blütewoche 3 Mit Chickenshit Livingsoil läuft es sehr einfach. Thripsen befall eingedämmt mit Plant Booom Protect Spray!

Beginning of week 3 of flower. Should be nearing the end of the stretch but if she can give just a little more we will get the screen full! Should be a great week will add more pics!

200g total, it wasn't my best batch but it was something. Sorry for the late update, I was busy with getting high 😎

She started her pre-flower process. I can already see light shades of purple in her small pre flower. She is weak and small compared to her sister plant, which was planted on the same day maybe min apart. I think I may have introduced her to the rapid and harsh elements of the sun to early should of given her a little more time under the lights like about two weeks b4 I went out but hay the damage is done lessons learned. I'm hitting her up with some Tiresias Mist, trying see if I can get some feminized pollen to recreate this strain ..... High Hope's last time I did this with my fortune cookies wasn't to successful I got pollen snacks but no real pollen to pollinate anything, may have started applying to late so I started a little earlier on this C4 Auto.

Hey guys welcome to week 6 and day 33 🙌🏼 The girls are getting really big now and i‘m tucking the new groth every day. It‘s pretty dificult to get good light penetration through to the lower branches but I will try to wait until day 21 of flower to cut anything off. I don’t want to stress them. For now I tug the big fan leaves down and keep the humidity as low as i can. They do transpire alot. Well, thats it for the start :) nothing else to report..

29.06.2025 Took a clone from each of my Plants on day one of flower. 30.06.2025 Did some LST..
