Fungus gnats coming with the soil might take the chance to come out now for breeding. i'm waiting with a 9 mm rifle. in the past i found 6 gnats in 2 of 8 x 50 l biobizz lightmix bags coming out of the soil. i could eliminate every single gnat successfully ;) rotating harvest: the little ones will be harvested completely when ready. at this point only the top branches of the big ones will be cut...and the new (basic-watered) pots of the new grow will move into the tent. 2-3 weeks later the second half of the big ones will be cut and the second half of the new grow will move in... nutes: individual feeding schedule/once a week: bloom,grow,topmax,activera,algamic + aminopower instead of bio heaven (too expensive) individual feeding schedule: veg: 200 - 600 ppm bloom: 600 - 900 ppm water: ro-water with: veg: 100-150 ppm calmag bloom: 150 ppm calmag

Week 10 Flower — The Beauty Before the Finish This week marks a very special chapter in the Eternity Grow Cup. As we approach harvest, the garden is simply glowing with beauty. Every corner, every canopy, every branch tells a story — and this week, I’ve taken the time to slow down and capture that story as best I can through the lens of my camera. All the photos you’ll see in this update were taken with care and intention. I use my Sony camera in full manual focus mode, and I don’t just snap and go — I spend time with each plant, each angle, waiting for that perfect moment when everything aligns. These are not just photos to document — they’re my attempt to reflect the feeling of the room, the energy of the grow, and the soul of each plant. Just like with the videos, I don’t shoot randomly and decide later. I record what matters, and what I record, I use. It keeps me focused, organized, and deeply connected to the process — and I believe it helps me tell the story more clearly, whether through stills or moving pictures. All five Runtz phenos are finishing beautifully. Each one expressing unique traits, but all carrying the same stunning quality — dense, clean, colorful, resin-rich flowers that fill the room with pride. This garden is finishing spotless, and I couldn’t be happier. This week’s YouTube episode will reflect that beauty. If you’re seeing this here on GrowDiaries, I highly recommend checking it out in full 4K once it’s live — there are moments that simply can’t be translated in photos alone, even though I try my best. But for those who love the details, the full spread of pictures is right here, as always. t this point in flower, the girls are not eating — they’re just drinking clean water with nothing but System Clean in the reservoir, at a rate of 0.25 ml per liter. This is part of a gentle, prolonged flush phase I like to implement, giving the plants a chance to metabolize and fade naturally. The goal is to promote clean, vibrant flowers that finish with optimal expression, without rushing the process. No forced flush, just time and care. Lighting-wise, the spectrum has been tuned with precision — we’re currently running 40% on the whites, with reds and UVs at 100% to drive trichome development, resin production, and color expression in these final days. The plants are loving it — they’re soaking in the deeper wavelengths that signal the end of their life cycle and responding with a final push of energy. And yes — we’ve been running 11 hours of light and 13 hours of darkness from the very start of flower. It’s not the usual 12/12, and it comes with its pros and cons. On the upside, it helps speed up ripening slightly, encourages more compact flower formation, and mimics the natural seasonal decline in daylight. On the flip side, it slightly reduces the overall DLI (daily light integral), so you need to ensure your PPFD and spectrum are dialed in just right to avoid sacrificing yield. For me, the trade-off is worth it — the plants are expressing themselves beautifully, finishing strong, and packing on the final magic. Now it’s your turn — I’d love to hear from you. Which phenotype is standing out the most to you in this garden? Which one is catching your eye with its colors, its fade, its structure, or just that vibe that speaks to your soul? Is it the frost? The density? The posture? Each of these girls has her own personality, and I know many of you have been following closely — so drop a comment, let me know: which one is your favorite? Which one would you take home? This run has officially earned the Dog Doctor Official Wax-Sealed Stamp of Approval. These genetics are beautiful — expressive, vibrant, clean. It’s been a joy to grow them, and an even greater joy to share this journey with all of you. Of course, we still have the final word coming after harvest, drying, and curing — that’s when the full picture reveals itself. But until then, based on everything we’ve seen and lived in this grow… this is the real deal. To everyone following the journey — thank you. To the sponsors, the community, the silent observers, the passionate growers, the haters, the lovers — I see you all, and I appreciate every bit of energy you send. This cup has been about more than just growing. It’s been about sharing. Connecting. Creating something beautiful together. And we’re almost there. Next stop: harvest? provably yes lets see !

01/10/22 Everything is Going good, which means something bad is going to happen. Plants were 9 inches at the end of week 4 on day one of week 5 they were topped and defoliated which brought the height to 4.5 inches, So after the shock of having there tops removed they grew 4 inches in one week. Extremely happy I'm keeping track.01/13/22 Defoliated and LST'D the plants.01/14/22 Adjusted LST , removed all branches growing on the underside to allow for proper Growth of other branches. Fingers crossed this should be a decent harvest flipping on week 9.

Day 85 - Noticed at least briefly, the tent had gotten up to about 84°, but went back down to its normal 82ish. I don't know if it has to do with slightly warmer temperatures or not. I will monitor. Was also fed today, following the Dyna-Gro feed chart with 2 tsp Bloom, and 2 tsp Mag Pro. As of this week, Foliage Pro is no longer going to be given. As I sit here and reflect on some of the earlier grow, I am starting to realize that lots of my discoloration early in the grow was likely predominantly caused by me. Not thinking, with this being a coco/peat mix, once I started feeding, it should have been every feed. I was not wanting to overfeed, so basically I fed one watering, then the next was plain water, thus essentially flushing the pot once a week and feeding once a week. Am I sure this was the cause, no, but it is the most logical thing that I can think of. I will call it 'first grow' lessons learned! Day 86 - Temp seemed to stay around 82° today, with a few hours of light left. Day 87 - She seems to be moving along fine with minimal effort on my part. Flowering seems to be the easiest part by far, but the hardest (having to wait when it gets close). Mid day update - New fan has arrived. Will be put in the tent tonight when the lights come on. Day 88 - Fed today, just over 1g with 2 tsp of Bloom and Mag Pro (per gallon). Installed the new Vivosun fan. Happy with it so far, seems a much better design to clip to the tent. Haven't used the old one as an underskirt fan just yet, but may still do so. Added a video looking at the new fan through the looking window of tent, so you can see it in action, while the tent is sucked in. You can see the leaves move from each side of the plant, then how the oscillation just perfectly fills the tent corner. I won a reverse auction from GPS, for a pack of Chinook Haze over the weekend (killer price), so I am going to start a small genetics collection I think. My original order from GYO has 1 Barneys Farm Pineapple Chunk (freebie), 2 random (freebies), 2 GYO GSC and 2 GYO Bubblegum seeds left, all of which should be feminized. The GPS seeds are regular. I really want to try some Subcool strains, like Jack the RIpper (have had the smoke and liked it) or Grape Lime Ricky (description just sounds awesome), but don't feel like paying $10 a bean for regular seeds at this point in time. The other I want to get is some White Rhino, which I might end up picking up some Nirvana White Rhino (another smoke I thoroughly enjoyed) seeds at some point as well. Day 89 - There is something peaceful about just sitting by the tent with the door open, and relaxing with the plant. NOTICE: Since a comment brought it to my attention that I never showed the lights, I added pics in the week 2 section, since that is when they went into the tent. They are QB132 v1 lights from HLG. Day 90 - Temp again hit 84° in the tent. I guess I can't worry too much. There is plenty of airflow, that that thermo is on the net, in the light, so it may be more of a radiant vs ambient temp. She isn't really showing any ill signs of it, so I will just keep plugging along. Day 91 - Fed today, 2tsp Bloom and Mag Pro (per gallon), with 140 oz given. 5 weeks of flower in the books. GYO lists this strain as a 55-63 day flower. I don't know if they base that off of time flip, or pistil formation, but I am 35 days in from time flip (I think it was about 12 days for first pistils), and I can't imagine that it will be done in 3 more weeks. I'm thinking at least 4 more, but we will see how she finishes as the weeks continue to go by. Opened the tent right before lights on today to grab a couple lights off flash on photos.

She is looking nice and healthy, no issues to report. I transplanted her on the last day of this week into 3 gal pots. Upped the nutes by 1ml per gal which is still about half the guides schedule. Will be starting co2 in 7-10 days is my guess. She isnt the biggest lady in the tent but shes battling for second, nice and healthy indeed.

More to come!... don't even ask how I keep this tent in the 70s in the garage when it is already getting to 96 degrees outside..... short answer... "oh, this works, well it did work, maybe if I do this, that seems to help, well shit, that didn't work, uh oh, its getting hot, I got it!... and done. - temps start to climb into the 90s - " oh shit, oh shit!, Its not working anymore, I guess 90 degrees inside the tent is better than being in the 100s.... think, think, think, 😲 I got it!... annnd done👌! Its working. The temp at the time of writing this is... 73 degrees (last night it is was in the upper 80s lower 90s). So yeah, my wife is upset at the time I've been spending on it..... if only she would have let me do this inside the house like I wanted to. Meh, whatareya gonna do? 😕 There is something living in my attic... I hear it now.😒....

ตัดแล้ว Harvest เล่นเอาซะเหนื่อย แต่ก็มีความสุข ไม่อยากจะเชื่อว่า Aeroponics จะทรงพลังได้มากขนาดนี้ ชอบโดยรวมแล้วชอบมากๆเลย สุดยอดสุดสุด และถ้าปลูกต่อไปจะหาวิธีปลูก ป้องกันการอุดตันของหัวฉีด

11/2: I fed them yesterday except for the 3 x SP's, the short OS(c), and the last Blackberry (a). Those 5 plants were each flushed with 8 gallons of warm water and Liquidsoil. 11/5: I watered the ones that will be harvested tomorrow so hey will be turgid for a rough trim. Took photos of the ones slated for execution. They'll be in the dark til tomorrow night. 11/6: Harvested and washed the 3 x SPs, the last Blackberry, and one of the OS's. Hanging to dry - My closet looks so empty now with only 11 plants in there... 11/7: I flushed all 3 of the Lemon Pies, and the purple Wedding Cheesecake with 8 gallons of warm water each, including Liquidsoil. Everybody else got fed for probably the last time.

Amazing growth this week, they've just exploded. The training was worth it as they're growing evenly, except for a few branches that I need to get under control. I probably won't install a net just because I'm a little late and don't see the benefits in this stage. Next thing I'm going to do is some cleaning up, defoliation to get them perfect for flowering.

Buena cosecha, nos costo un poco mantener la alimentación ya que con 1.6 Ec pedían más , les subimos algo en las últimas semanas y dio resultado. El panel.es muy potente les mete mucha carga lumínica. Estas GELATO-K han ofrecido varios fenotipo con sabores muy dispares.. aún así todos bastante buenos. Ha sido un buen aprendizaje. Gracias a todos los que pasan a visitar mi perfil. En breves volvemos con más! Saludos

Day 15: Switched lights to 20/4 I overwatered them last week when I did the feeding, the fabric pots dry fast but this soil holds water well and I’m not used to planting into final sized pots like this either. It’s taking so long to dry out but I’m letting it. I’ve stopped misting obviously. Watching humidity and temps between lights on/off. Looking good. I will do the same light feeding as last week once the pots are dry enough but will make sure to only water the root area this time. I possibly stunted them a little but they are alive and learning is fun 😅 Halfway through the week update. They finally dried out and are now getting 25ml water per day, with feed. I added an oscillating fan. Temp and humidity seems to have stabilized now. Started to grow again but leaves stacked tightly. I’m playing with the lights, they are a bit strong for this stage I think. I turned off the extra 100w light leaving just the 270w on and they seem to have responded well overnight. Will turn it back on once they start taking off. I think I need to reconsider switching lights to 18/6 if I can figure out how to stabilize temps during lights out.
