Hello all hope you friends and pets are staying cool. Cassie it is around 100 degree lately and plants and herbs are dying and drying out๐Ÿ˜ข. Iโ€™m luck my tree are doing very well. I just give them a dose of 1,3,3 of organic tea with good old fashion unsulpher molasses water. The buds are coming out thick and it smell good. Lucky in my state it legalized for cultivation. Hopefully it rain this week as Iโ€™ve got a vegetable garden. The lawns are dried up and droughts in many places. Sad time we live me. Everything is so expensive thst why Iโ€™ve stated a vegetable ๐Ÿฅฆ food is expensive.

In dieser Woche hat die Pflanze das komplette Zelt ordentlich ausgefรผllt und hat sich auch ganz gut gestreckt. Am Ende der Woche habe ich ihr ein bischen die Beine rasiert um eine bessere Luftzirkulation zu gewรคhrleisten. Einen schluck Bio PK 5-8 hat sie an dem Tag auch noch bekommen.

Drunken Bitch Slap is growing good under the Hortibloom Solux 350. She had gotten a neem oil treatment and , then rinsed shortly after twice this week. This was after another plant showed mite signs. So I treated every plant to prevent a out break from going further. She got some training today as well. She is looking good, and growing great. Thank you Hortibloom, and Aeque Genetics. ๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿป๐Ÿค›๐Ÿป๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ Thank you grow diaries community for the ๐Ÿ‘‡likes๐Ÿ‘‡, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel๐Ÿ‘‡. โ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿป Happy Growing ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

๐Ÿ‘‘ 8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Week 12 Godfather OG โ€“ Pheno B The Big Mama Keeps Shining โ€“ Doing Nothing, Seeing Everything ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’Ž Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And here she is again... Our beautiful Godfather OG Pheno B. ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ And honestly... I'm loving this girl. She's big. She's beautiful. She's evolving quickly. She's filling her space. She's building flowers. She's developing more and more character. And the funniest part? I'm barely doing anything to her. ๐Ÿ˜‚ This is one of those weeks where the grower walks into the room, looks around, checks everything, looks at the plants again... and thinks: "Yep." ๐Ÿ˜‚ That's it. That's the job right now. Observe. Pay attention. See what is happening. Check whether anything is actually needed. And if nothing is needed... leave the plant alone. Because sometimes... doing nothing is actually doing something. And this Big Mama is proving that beautifully. ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’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”€ ๐ŸŒฑ WEEK 12 โ€“ THE BIG MAMA KEEPS MOVING โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Godfather OG Pheno B continues to move quickly. She's not slowing down in the way that makes you think she's finished. She's evolving. She's developing. She's continuing to build her flowers and fill out the structure she's spent the entire grow creating. And when I look at her now compared with the earlier weeks... it's almost funny how much plant we're looking at. She has become a substantial girl. A proper Big Mama. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ She's occupying her space. She's making herself noticed. And she's doing it without asking me to constantly reach into the canopy and change something. That's exactly where I want her. Healthy. Developing. Stable. And doing her thing. 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‘‘ BIG MAMA HAS CLAIMED HER SPACE 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 are plants that quietly exist inside a tent. And then there are plants that seem to say: "Yes, this corner is mine." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘ Godfather OG Pheno B has definitely claimed her place. She's got presence. You notice her. You look across the room and she's there. Big structure. Beautiful flowering sites. Healthy foliage. Increasingly developed flowers. And that unmistakable Godfather OG personality we've been following throughout this entire journey. That's one of the things I love about running individual phenotypes. Eventually, you stop seeing just a plant with a label. You know who she is. You know her habits. You know her structure. You know her appetite. You know how she fills the space. And Pheno B? She's our Big Mama. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ 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 THE FLOWERS ARE DOING THE TALKING 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, the flowers are becoming the main story. And they're speaking pretty loudly. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒธ The flowering structures continue to develop. The buds are becoming more substantial. The pistils continue evolving. The resin is becoming increasingly visible. And the whole plant is gradually shifting from: "Building flowers" toward: "Developing what those flowers are going to become." That's one of my favourite stages. Because you can actually see the progression. You don't need to imagine what the plant might become. She's showing you. Week by week. Photograph by photograph. And Godfather OG Pheno B is showing us 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”€ ๐Ÿ’Ž THE FROST IS GETTING HARDER TO IGNORE 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 closer we look at this girl... the more there is to see. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒธ The resin continues becoming more noticeable across the flowers and surrounding sugar leaves. And this is where the camera becomes such a beautiful tool. From a distance: "She's beautiful." Closer: "Whoa..." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ’Ž The flowers have texture. The pistils weave through the developing structures. The trichomes begin creating that frosted appearance. And suddenly you realize just how much is happening inside what initially looks like one flower. That's why I love keeping the weekly photographic record. Because when you put the weeks together... you can actually see the plant progressing. 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 DOING NOTHING... AND SEEING EVERYTHING 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 theme of this week's report. We're not doing much. And that's intentional. The plant doesn't need us to invent work. She's not asking for major training. She's not asking to be reshaped. She's not asking to be stripped. She's not asking us to constantly reach into the canopy. She's growing. She's flowering. She's developing. She's healthy. So what exactly would I gain by interfering? Nothing. ๐Ÿ˜‚ My job right now is observation. I walk in. I look. I inspect. I check the flowers. I check the leaves. I check the environment. I check the irrigation. I check whether anything needs attention. And if the answer is: "No." Then... I walk away. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฑ That's not laziness. That's experience. Knowing when a plant needs you... and knowing when it doesn't. 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‘€ OBSERVATION IS STILL WORK 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 this is something people sometimes underestimate. When a grow is in its active training phase, it's easy to feel productive. You're moving branches. You're positioning things. You're adjusting the canopy. You're doing things with your hands. But later in the run? The most important tool can be your eyes. ๐Ÿ‘€๐ŸŒฟ You observe. You compare. You notice changes. You catch something early. You decide whether it matters. And you act only when necessary. That's what we're doing with Big Mama. We're not ignoring her. Quite the opposite. We're paying attention. We're just not manufacturing problems where there aren't any. And right now... she looks like she's doing exactly what she should be doing. 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 WATCHING THE PLANT CHANGE 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 most rewarding things about this stage is watching the little changes accumulate. The flowers become larger. The pistils change. The resin becomes more apparent. The plant's overall appearance changes. Some leaves begin to show signs of age. Other leaves remain beautifully green. And all of these things are part of the plant's progression. The important thing is context. We don't look at one leaf and immediately decide the whole plant has a problem. We look at the entire plant. We compare with previous weeks. We look at where changes are occurring. We look at the flowers. We look at the new growth. We look at the environment. And then we decide whether anything actually needs attention. So far? Big Mama is simply moving. And moving 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”€ โš—๏ธ THE NUTRITION IS STARTING TO COME DOWN โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ We're also entering the stage where the nutritional strategy begins to change. As we approach the final part of the flowering cycle, I'm starting to reduce the mineral nutrition gradually. And this is something I personally prefer. I don't like the idea of going: "Full nutrition today." Then: "ZERO EVERYTHING TOMORROW." ๐Ÿ˜‚ Especially when working with mineral nutrition. I prefer a gradual transition. Reduce a little. Observe. Let the plant continue. Reduce again when appropriate. And allow the plant to naturally move toward the end of the cycle. The plant doesn't suddenly stop being alive because we're approaching the finish line. She's still functioning. Still transpiring. Still photosynthesizing. Still developing. So for me, a progressive reduction makes more sense than slamming the door shut overnight. We're beginning that transition now. Less nutritional input. Continued observation. And allowing Big Mama to finish her work. 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 WHY I PREFER A GRADUAL REDUCTION โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Plants don't have a little calendar hanging on the wall saying: "Two weeks left!" ๐Ÿ˜‚ They respond to their environment. They continue functioning. They continue using resources. And different plants can behave differently during the final stages. That's another reason why I prefer to reduce gradually. I'm watching the plant. Not just the calendar. Godfather OG Pheno B is still actively developing. She's still beautiful. She's still moving. So I'm not interested in suddenly starving her simply because we're getting closer. The nutritional input is being reduced progressively while we continue observing her response. That's the philosophy. Slow transition. No panic. No unnecessary extremes. 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 THE ARTIFICIAL SUN IS STILL FLYING 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 setup remains upgraded with the two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures. And we're still controlling that extra capacity rather than simply running everything flat out. Approximately: ๐Ÿ”Œ 59% power from the plug with approximately: โ˜€๏ธ 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. And once again... this is where having more capability becomes useful. We don't have to use everything. We have the headroom. We have the fixtures. We have the photons. And we can control how much we're actually using. That's much more interesting to me than simply chasing the biggest number possible. Big Mama has plenty of light available. Now we're watching what she does with it. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‘ 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 PHOTONS MEET A BIG PLANT โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ Godfather OG Pheno B is a fantastic example of why I keep talking about three-dimensional lighting. She's not a flat surface. She's a big plant. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ‘‘ She's got height. She's got branches. She's got flowers occupying different levels. She's got leaves facing different directions. She's got areas exposed directly to the fixtures... and areas deeper inside the canopy. So when we say approximately 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy, that's exactly what we mean. The upper canopy. The rest of the plant naturally receives different intensities. That's normal. That's physics. That's plant architecture. And the additional Lumiflora lighting helps us explore how we can bring additional illumination into deeper parts of that structure. We're not just lighting a tent. We're lighting a three-dimensional garden. 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 FUTURE OF GROW โ€“ THANK YOU FOR THE EXTRA SUN โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ A big thank you again to Future of Grow for providing the two additional Black Series 600W fixtures for us to test here in the 8ร—8 Adventure. This upgrade has given us something I really value: Control. More available lighting. More headroom. More flexibility. And because we don't need to run the fixtures at maximum output, we can find the operating point that makes sense for the room. We're currently around 59% power from the plug and approximately 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. That's a serious amount of artificial sunlight. โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚ And Big Mama is sitting right underneath it... catching photons and turning them into flowers. Thank you, Future of Grow, for giving us the opportunity to test these fixtures in a real flowering environment. 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 SAME ROOM โ€“ ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL ANSWER 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... the 8ร—8 experiment continues to prove why genetics are so fascinating. Same room. Same general environment. Same lighting philosophy. Same irrigation. Same nutritional strategy. Different plants. Different expressions. Different personalities. Godfather OG Pheno B has given us a very clear answer. She's big. She's vigorous. She's hungry. She's beautiful. She's developing quickly. And she has claimed her own space. She's not trying to be Pheno A. She's not trying to be another cultivar. She's simply being herself. And that's exactly what we wanted to see. 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 PHOTOS TELL THE 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 looking at this week's photographs... I can see why I'm loving this girl. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ‘‘ The full-plant images show just how substantial she has become. The flower photographs show the developing structure. The closer images reveal the resin and pistils. And together... they tell a story that a single photograph never could. She's changing. She's maturing. She's becoming more defined. And she's doing it quickly. This is why I don't want to rush through these final stages. There is still so much to observe. Every week gives us another little piece of the 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”€ ๐ŸŒธ BIG MAMA IS STILL BUILDING โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ She's not finished. That's the important part. She's still developing. Still building. Still changing. And although we're getting closer to the final part of the journey, I don't want to start treating the plant like the finish line has already arrived. She's still here. Still working. Still using the environment. Still developing her flowers. So we continue observing. We continue providing what she needs. And we let her decide how the next chapter looks. No forcing. No unnecessary intervention. Just support. And patience. 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 THE ROOM CONTINUES TO DO ITS JOB 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 general room environment remains consistent with the current 8ร—8 setup: โ€ข ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature: approximately 26.5โ€“27ยฐC โ€ข ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature: approximately 25โ€“26ยฐC โ€ข ๐Ÿ’ง RH: around 60โ€“61% โ€ข ๐Ÿฅฅ Substrate temperature: around 25โ€“26ยฐC โ€ข ๐Ÿ’ฆ Nutrient solution: around 25ยฐC โ€ข โš—๏ธ pH: approximately 6.0 โ€ข โšก EC: gradually being reduced as we move toward the later flowering stage โ€ข ๐Ÿ’จ COโ‚‚: approximately 693 ppm โ€ข ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule: 12/12 โ€ข ๐Ÿ’ง Irrigation: approximately 1.4โ€“1.45 L/plant/24h โ€ข ๐ŸŒฑ Pot size: 15 L โ€ข โ˜€๏ธ Upper canopy: approximately 1,500 PPFD โ€ข ๐Ÿ”Œ Lighting output: approximately 59% And again... these numbers are useful. But they're not the entire story. The plant tells us the rest. And Big Mama is telling us: "I'm good." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ 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'S SHINING BRIGHT 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 are weeks where a plant gives you a dramatic event. Something happens. Something changes. Something needs fixing. And then there are weeks like this. Nothing dramatic. Nothing broken. Nothing demanding intervention. Just... growth. Beautiful growth. And honestly? Those are some of my favourite weeks. Because this is the payoff of all the work we did earlier. We built the structure. We established the environment. We got the irrigation working. We provided the nutrition. We upgraded the lighting. And now... we watch. Godfather OG Pheno B is doing the rest. ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’Ž 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 THIS IS THE PART I LOVE 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 stage of the grow reminds me why I enjoy growing so much. You can plan. You can measure. You can prepare. You can control as many variables as possible. But eventually... you have to let the plant be a plant. And that's where the magic happens. The grower provides the opportunity. The genetics provide the expression. The environment provides the conditions. And the plant writes the story. Godfather OG Pheno B is writing hers very clearly. She's a Big Mama. She's beautiful. She's moving fast. She's filling out. And she's making herself impossible to ignore. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ 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”ฎ LOOKING AHEAD โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ From here... we continue exactly as we've been doing. Observe. Check. Photograph. Measure. Support. And only intervene when something actually requires intervention. The nutrition will continue its gradual reduction as we move toward the later stages. The lighting remains controlled. The environment remains stable. The irrigation continues. And Big Mama gets to keep doing what she's been doing. Over the coming weeks, I'll be watching: ๐ŸŒธ Continued flower development ๐Ÿ’Ž Resin development ? Pistil evolution ๐ŸŒฟ Natural changes in the foliage โš—๏ธ Response to the gradual nutritional reduction ๐Ÿ’ง Water demand โ˜€๏ธ Response to the lighting environment ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Environmental stability ๐Ÿ“ธ Changes from week to week No rushing.

And Godfather OG Pheno B continues to shine. ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’Ž She's big. She's beautiful. She's evolving quickly. She's filling her space. She's developing her flowers. And I'm loving her. This week, once again, we didn't need to do much physically. And that's okay. Actually... that's fantastic. Because it means the plant is doing what she's supposed to do. Our job right now is mostly to observe. Look closely. Check the flowers. Check the foliage. Watch the environment. Monitor the irrigation. Gradually reduce the nutritional input as we approach the later stages. And if something is needed... we respond. If nothing is needed... we leave her alone. That's the balance. Because growing isn't always about doing more. Sometimes growing is knowing when to stop doing. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฟ And this Big Mama? She's got it. She's claiming her place in the tent. She's shining under those photons. She's building beautiful flowers. She's becoming increasingly frosty. She's evolving quickly. And she's doing it all while I stand there with a camera thinking: "Well... you're doing a pretty damn good job without me." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ‘‘ So keep shining, Big Mama. Keep growing. Keep building. Keep showing us what this Godfather OG expression can become. We're watching. We're learning. We're documenting. And we're enjoying every minute of it. ๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’Žโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ”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™ 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”€ As always, a massive thank you to everyone following the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document these individual journeys and share the process with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Godfather OG genetics and for giving us the opportunity to explore these different phenotypes side by side. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden throughout this journey with the growing media and nutrition. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to test this expanded lighting setup in a real flowering environment. More capability. More control. More photons. And the ability to run the fixtures at a controlled output rather than simply pushing everything to maximum. Thank you to Lumiflora for helping bring additional light into the deeper parts of the canopy and allowing us to explore lighting as a three-dimensional environment. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping monitor and manage the room behind the scenes. And finally... thank you to everyone following these girls week after week. Every comment. Every question.

And most importantly... let's keep doing what this stage of the grow asks us to do: Pay attention. Provide what is needed.

So I am harvesting sweet Bourbon Kush Autoflower. It grew really fast. It smells like a wooddy sweet Bourbon. Hence the name. ๐Ÿคท. She grew great for me in coco/perlite in a 1.5 gallon Potter. She has a great smell, great frost. Looks delicious. I am super eager to try the results. Thank you Spider Farmer, and Super Sativa Seeds Club. ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿป๐Ÿค›๐Ÿป๐ŸŒฑโ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ Thank you grow diaries community for the ๐Ÿ‘‡likes๐Ÿ‘‡, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel๐Ÿ‘‡. โ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿป Happy Growing ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Itโ€™s been hot out. A perfect time to dry buds. I love when itโ€™s super hot or super cold when itโ€™s time to dry buds. When itโ€™s hot the ac makes the humidity nice and low and when itโ€™s really cold out the heater makes the humidity nice and low

What can I say fastbuds has some nice growing and very tasty strains to choose from .. They always grow some great smelling buds and this strain makes tight compact ones.. The plant it's self has been resilient to cold and humidity now our Ontario weather is so unfair and will need to get more done ..

I'm getting a little discoloration on the leaf edge. We got some rain the night of day 2. Then a heavy dew early day 3. Night 4 and day 5 we got heavy rain and thunderstorms. Day 6 was overcast and very humid. Day 7 was lots of rain. This girls handling the wet feet pretty good. She's growing slow but that could be contributed to the cool nights and days. Overall she's doing well and the week was good.

Slt, dรฉjร  la fin de la semaine 5. Les plantes ont trรจs bien rรฉcupรฉrรฉes de leur topping et de leur dรฉfoliation. Les plantes semblent รชtre en bonne santรฉ. Je viens juste de refaire une dรฉfoliation et du LST, pour avoir la structure voulu et donner toute lโ€™รฉnergie de la plante pour les tiges principales, en espรฉrant que cela soit profitable aux plantes. Jโ€™espรจre ne pas mโ€™รชtre trompรฉ.๐Ÿ™ En photos et vidรฉos je montre avant et aprรจs la dรฉfoliation et le LST, et le fonctionnement du sytรจme dโ€™irrigation. A la semaine prochaine... Happy grow๐Ÿ˜Ž Ps: le rendu des couleurs sur les vidรฉos et photos peu รชtre bizarre ร  cause de la LED.

So the first plant came down around 2 weeks before itโ€™s sister who was still doing a lot of swelling and ripening. The first grew only small maybe due to being stuck in same pot as other plant but it was a good experience doing 2 in 1 pot. Not something I will try again but was fun. They took between 10 and 12 weeks from sprouting to harvest which is great! Think next time I might try one in a little bigger pot see if she gets much bigger. But yeah great few months growing this girl she was well worth it! I advise anyone to go grab yourself some of these seeds you wonโ€™t be disappointed! Well done from fast buds! And also big thanks to them for the sponsorship of this grow! Happy growing everyone!๐ŸŒฑ

Esta semana comenze la aplicaciรณn de big bud organic y nirvana, ademรกs de el b-52 que ya venia aplicando y las bases connoiseur, he rallado una cantidad enorme de brotes bajos que cogian mucho vigor y no iban a prosperar como los apicales.

I had a busy week moving the plants into NFT once roots started to show, put them into a tent give them a fan. Freebie seed shown slow recovery but decided to use it anyway.
