Today is the harvest day for Red hot cookies. To be honest they were ready to chop after 7 weeks of 12/12. One green poison and one gorilla girl which is more indica leaning are also ready and I think I ll chop them too. Two gorilla girls and two green poisons still have some days to fully mature, bu its a week tops. One of the Red Hot cookies showed these beautiful dark purple, orange, yellow combination on its leaves which I always dreamed of having in my garden. Im super happy :) Combined with the ridiculous frostiness in the middle, she's definitely one of the most beautiful plants I've had so far. Cheers everyone.

She’s getting fat! Smells berry and gassy , gonna def be some good smoke. Gonna go 65 days I think 🍓🌲💨⛽️🤟🏻

✨ And just like that, Ms. Purple’s final feeding week has officially come to a close! She’s smelling absolutely divine right now, so fragrant that you can’t even walk past the tent without getting smacked in the face by her delicious aroma 😋🍌🌸 She got cleaned lightly before these pics. I checked her trichomes again and boom we’ve hit that sweet spot we’ve been waiting for! Starting this week, we’re ditching the nutrients and giving her that clean, smooth finish with a proper Flawless Flush 🚿💎 It’s truly been a joy raising this big girl. Learned a lot, laughed a lot, and she definitely kept things exciting from start to finish! Thanks for rocking with me through this journey! Happy new month & happy growing 💚🌿

Am Tag 60 wurde auf 12 / 12 umgestellt, also gehen wir jetzt in die erste volle Blüte Woche 😄 Beide machen sich gut und sind jetzt 70 cm groß. Die Kush ist etwas pflegeleichter und genügsamer als die Gushers, die etwas zickiger zu sein scheint. Mal schauen wer sich jetzt mehr streckt 📏😁✌️

flowering stage is one of the most enjoyable moments :) 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪

Very sticky. Not too bad a trim but not the fastest or best.

First i have to say i messed up at gemenation 3 of them dyed and had to gereminat again. So: Sweet seeds: Black Cream Gem at 30/3, Veg at 6/4 is now preflowering at week 3 and was the only one that didnt dyed. Zamnesia: Wedding Cake Gem at 6/4, Veg at 12/4 is now at week 2 Bomberry Glue Gem at 8/4, Veg at 14/4 is now at week 2 also Purple Couscous Gem at 11/4, Veg at 17/4 is now at end of week 1 Its going to be a strange diary but because the timelapse ideia makes all sense just to make one Diary. When I was enjoying some smoke from a green gelato came to my mind what if i automated my garden? Hand on in some zigbee sensores and plugs and my Hassio. Done some flows on node red and this is what i have got till now: Fully autometed light: 1 mars hydro ts1000 17.5h hours a day 2 Cosmorrow blooming 18.5 hours a day 1 uvb light 3 hours a day Fan: Temperature controlled ( working on how can i control vpd with it) CO2: Working But Disable( Jq300 not stable sensor it poles from cloud waiting for another sensor to arrive to connect to a esp32 and pole my values) Vent: controles by inou temperature delta Cam: Live feed and timlapse My Hassio gives me telegram notifications and plugs control, ppfd, dli, vpd calculed and the normal temp and humidity. Still No soil moiste control just a miflora but not very accuret still searching for sensor that works to come up with a watering system All its maid to have a <300watts consum so small lamps and no dehumidifier buts very easy to scale it up. Im all open in sharing my work and help on new ideas. Please Coment and help develop it

9/8 hugs are starting to fill out. Branches are drooping and falling from the weight. Weve had some intense wind here recently. Im surprised this ladies still standing upright. I tied her down to the side of rhe house in hopes to stop her from breaking or something. Cant wait to see her fill out🤘 9/10 she survived the wind storm. I still have her tied up cuz she flops over almost completely from her own weight

Day 17 well I think I’ll try and price LH & MD sometimes later this week or next. Happy to see the Dr has finally shown up and is starting to stretch. Hopefully a couple more dominate limbs will show, and will trim her up too. As of Saturday Fozzy Bear (we wanted it Fozzie but official paper work says otherwise) joined the family and his new big brother Buddy. He has already grown a few inches since we got him but god is he ever cute, and god bless Buddy for taking his playful shit since

Off to a sloppy start with these good old classic seeds. I kinda forgot I was going away for a few days and the giraffe neck vs the dwarf version are the result. Nevertheless, these aren't autos so I can very likely fix everything by delaying flowering for a bit :) Very curious to see how easy it will be to grow these in such a small space. 😎 They will be placed in 7l All-Mix soil by BioBizz and will get a full range on BioBizz nutrients after a few weeks of Root Juice. I will however be using BioGrow, BioBloom, TopMax and CalMag as my main nutrients. The others will be used occasionally and if the plant uptakes all nutrients without issues (nutrient lock paranoia is always there)

🌱(BT 40) 🌱Es sind verschiedene phenos zum Vorschein gekommen aber sie entwickeln sich bisher super 👍 Es gibt keine großen Veränderungen in den zusätzen☕ es geht weiter mit @Hesi_Official Dünger und die rlf Passt auch wieder wie gewünscht mit der ich zwischenzeitlich etwas zu kämpfen hatte aber das ließ sich gut gegensteuern mit der Infrarotmatte 👍 AKF von @VIVOSUN lässt Geruch durch ohne Ende auch bei 50% rlf 😄schon der zweite nagelneue 150mm akf ✅ bis vor zwei Wochen war noch alles top Links die XS 1500 pro mit 36 cm Abstand und 85% Leistung derzeit✅ Rechts die M100 Pro von Wizard of Bloom mit 31cm Abstand und 100% Leistung ✅ Mir persönlich gefällt Spektrum und Vitalität sowie Performance unter der M100 etwas besser der Wuchs ist bedeutend kompakter und die Blüten gehen fast bis zur Erde das ist echt Wahnsinn 👍✅☣️ Die Research Reihe von @SensiSeeds läuft bisher ohne große Probleme und es ist eine Freude zuzusehen 😁

🌿 CherryBellini by The Cali Connection 🌿 Week 14 Flower week 8 Flower-day 1 3/12/25 ( pisitils showed 25th of October) im timing from pisitils showed but diary runs from 12/12 light flip No nutrients change today, I'm thinking about 2 weeks or so of feeding, maybe 2 more horti rawk doses before switching out to new millennium winter frost then onto flush with plain water/ph Not sure, not sure. Maybe even give LA and Grape an extra week to get Bellini over the end instead of pulling a little early or pulling her as shes finishing up. Next horti rawk dose probably saturday (48hr run ) then dump then new nutrients. This is currently week7 day 1 flower from 6/12/25 ( pisitils first shown ) 8/12/25 Will be dumping nutrients tomorrow, switching to winter frost by new millennium then onto flush 9/12/25 Dumped nutrients, winterfrost 500ml ( 10ml a gallon) will use for 7 days then flush for 10 or so

esta semana empezare a fertilizar una planta con B.A.C y otra con TOP CROP. han evolucionado de buena manera las plantas a la poda Apical realizada la semana anterior.

I still have ppm at 1000 and pH at 5.8. The pistils have started to appear, and it's emitting a bit more of that green scent. I'm looking forward to the flowering stage.

💜 Week 6 – Purple CousKush Auto (Pheno A) Every Branch Finds Its Purpose One of the greatest joys of growing multiple phenotypes is watching each plant reveal its own personality over time. Some rush into flower with explosive enthusiasm, while others take their time, quietly building the structure that will support everything to come. Since germination, this Purple CousKush has chosen the second path. Growing under the same conditions as every other lady in the 8×8 Adventure, she has patiently developed an elegant framework before fully committing her energy to bloom. Now, as Week 6 unfolds, that patience is beginning to pay off. The structure she spent weeks building is finally coming to life, with every branch proudly carrying fresh clusters of white pistils. Rather than relying on a single dominant cola, she is transforming into a beautifully balanced plant where each branch has a role to play. Sometimes the best performances begin with a slow introduction. 🌱 Plant Development This week has been all about progression. Standing at approximately 76 cm, she remains one of the taller ladies in the 8×8 Adventure, displaying a graceful sativa-leaning structure with long internodes and excellent spacing between flowering sites. The stretch is still present but beginning to settle, allowing the plant to redirect more of her energy towards flower production. Bud sites are now clearly established across every branch, and each day the clusters of bright white pistils become a little larger and a little more defined. The low-stress training performed during the early weeks continues to show its value. Light penetrates deep into the canopy, airflow remains excellent, and nearly every branch has developed into a potential flowering top. It's easy to imagine how these long stems will eventually carry elegant, well-stacked colas from top to bottom. She isn't trying to be the most compact plant in the room. She's building something entirely different. 🌿 Environment & Growing Conditions Environmental conditions remained stable throughout the week, allowing uninterrupted development. • 12/12 light schedule from seed • Future of Grow Black Series LED delivering approximately 850 PPFD • Mammoth Pro tent with excellent airflow • Day temperature around 29°C • Night temperature around 25°C • Relative humidity averaging 60% • CO₂ approximately 639 ppm • pH 6.0 • EC 1.78 mS/cm The reduction in humidity compared to previous weeks has created an ideal environment for flowering, while the stable temperatures continue encouraging healthy growth without signs of stress. The foliage remains vibrant, the stems continue strengthening, and every indication suggests she's thoroughly enjoying the conditions provided. 💧 Feeding Program Growing in a 15 L Plagron Lightmix container and hand-watered with approximately 0.9 litres per irrigation, she continues responding beautifully to the current feeding schedule. This week's nutrient solution consisted of: • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L The transition into full bloom nutrition has been seamless. Leaf colour remains healthy and balanced, while the developing flowers continue to expand without showing signs of deficiency or excess. Sometimes the best adjustment is simply knowing when not to change what is already working. 🌸 Phenotype Notes This Purple CousKush continues to remind me why growing from seed is always such a rewarding experience. Despite sharing identical genetics, environment, nutrition and lighting with the other plants in this project, she has developed an entirely unique character. Where some phenotypes chose density and compact growth, this lady has embraced height, openness and elegant branching. Her long internodes may appear unusual at first glance, but they're creating a structure with excellent light penetration and airflow—qualities that often become major advantages as flowering progresses. Rather than comparing her with the others, I prefer appreciating what makes her different. Every phenotype has something to teach us. 🔍 Looking Ahead With the majority of the stretch now behind her, I expect the coming weeks to focus increasingly on flower production. The framework is already in place. Now comes the exciting part. Each flowering site should gradually begin stacking along those beautifully spaced branches, slowly transforming this elegant structure into a canopy filled with long, resin-covered colas. If she continues following the path she's chosen so far, I wouldn't be surprised if she finishes with a very refined, classic sativa-style appearance despite her autoflower genetics. She's written the introduction. Now the story begins to unfold. 💭 Final Thoughts This week reminded me that successful cultivation isn't about making every plant look the same. It's about understanding that each one has its own rhythm, its own priorities and its own way of expressing the genetics hidden inside a tiny seed. This Purple CousKush has never tried to compete with the others. She simply continues becoming the best version of herself. Healthy. Elegant. Balanced. Confident. Watching that transformation unfold is one of the greatest rewards of this entire 8×8 Adventure. Sometimes the tallest stories are written one branch at a time. 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure. Your encouragement, questions and shared experiences continue to make this project far more rewarding than if I were growing alone. A special thank you to the incredible companies helping make this grow possible: 💜 Zamnesia for the fantastic genetics. 💜 Plagron for providing the nutrition that keeps these ladies thriving. 💜 Future of Grow for the outstanding lighting. 💜 TrolMaster for maintaining such a stable environment throughout every stage of the grow. And finally, thank you to the entire GrowDiaries community. Whether you've been here since day one or have only recently joined this adventure, I truly appreciate every visit, every comment and every word of encouragement. Until next week... Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💚
