Week 16 (Harvest) 1-2 Drying day 1 Temperature: 24.5 to 19.5 degrees Humidity: 65% to 50% The girls are ready to be harvested! Before chopping them down, i took a lot of pictures. I was able to remove most of the soil from the Biscotti #2 to see the rootball. I hang the plants as a whole to have a slow dry. The exhaust fan is on setting 4. 2-2 Drying day 2 Temperature: 19.1 to 17.5 degrees Humidity: 62% to 57% I changed the exhaust fan to setting 2 because setting 4 was a bit high in my opinion. 3-2 Drying day 3 Temperature: 19.9 to 18 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% Today i checked up on the drying plants, and i see there are some buds touching other buds, so i chopped the plants in half. The buds are still to the main stem for a slow dry, but are hanging more spreaded out to prevent any budrot issues. I changed the exhaust fan to setting 1, as someone told me that it was enough air movement for drying. 4-2 Drying day 4 Temperature: 19.8 to 18.5 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% 5-2 Drying day 5 Temperature: 19.9 to 18.8 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% Today i checked on the drying plants and the buds are shrinking a bit, they are getting a little bit crispy on the outside aswell, I hope they wont dry as fast, and i aim for a 12/14 day dry. For the next grow i already germinated 2x Chemdog (GreenHouseSeeds) 2x Gorilla Kush (GanjaFarmerSeeds) and 1x Deep Candy CBD (GreenHouseSeeds) And I have some upgrades planned aswell! I bought a autopot kit with 4 15L pots, this way the plants will have water and air 24/7 whenever they need it. I have seen alot of great results using autopots so i am very exited to try it out! And I bought a small camera so i can shoot some weekly timelapses! Feel free to Follow me if you like to get notified for the upcoming diaries! Thanks for checking out this diary, peace! (More harvest updates coming in the next couple of days!) Huge thank you to Zamnesia for the seeds, and Plagron for the collection of nutrients, and the opportunity to participate in the POWERBUDS contest! It was a fun and learningful adventure!

These plants are starting to come back nicely . Unfortunately due to me being extraordinary lazy this grow, not maintaining them properly & not on time & the watering issue they suffered they didn't meet their potential! Because of this they didn't go through much of a flowering stretch! Growers if you use the promo code GROWEED, you will receive a 15% discount on any Fast Buds purchase!

Mass defoliation and more tie downs in prep for 12/12. Might flip sooner than first planned. The Barneys Farm strains are looking amazing. The others are coming along very nicely. Flipped to 12/12 mid week due to various reasons. All 9 are looking incredibly healthy. I swear by Biobizz, always good results. These will be frosty AF.

Vamos familia, que ya traigo la primera semana de crecimiento de las Royal Gorilla de RoyalQueenSeeds. Y es que después del chasco con el germinado, que hubo 3 que no han querido salir, las 7 que tenemos van adelante tienen un buen color, y aunque estén algo débiles salvarán todas. Por lo demás va correcto mantengo la humedad alta esta semana, y veremos si ayudan algo las temperaturas.

This strain was easy to grow, short and very bushy. The smell when drying has an incredibly strong earthy/chocolate aroma which is very pleasant🤤.

Hey guys! Here's the 3rd week of flower! 😻 This week I trimmed my babies (just a little, about 8 leaves or less each plant). Some leaves were healthy but were blocking a lot of light from the flowers and tucking them wasn't doing the job anymore. Besides that Boomer stretched out a lot (which also worried me as I didn't want my babies to go wild on me. I LSTed some of them hoping that would fix the issue). Where I live has been getting somewhat cold at night and I fear that might be doing something to my babies (I hope to be wrong). Besides that the flowers are getting bigger everyday and some are even starting to show some trichomes (I think looks cute!). The pistils are also getting bigger and the smell is stronger now (it was already strong). Near the end of the week I saw Falco's leaves were getting yellow and I suspect it is nitrogen deficiency... and what's causing it is probably some residues at the end of the pot (so I might need to flush her) or maybe I just need to feed her more nutes). Keep in mind she used to be quite small during veg and only in the end she grew enough to be transplanted to a bigger pot. Maybe she's just special? This week you'll see less timelapses compared to last week... I forgot to take photos for about 3 days 😅 but at least there are some! I hope you'll enjoy what I'm sharing! Thanks for reading! 👋

week intel: we are going through slowly stresses : just a little E.C stress around 1.4 once a week feeding: i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them heavy with silicate +base nutrients(calcium & micros + Bloom) about 700 ppm - 1.4 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose of Feeding Booster around 327 ppm - 0.64 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused. day 5 : i feed them with low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 255 ppm - 0.5 e.c to let them recover the stresses to get ready for another stress next week. guide of the week : know your plant tolerance limit of E.C stress once you saw the very very little yellowing on tips of leaves , that's the sign to don't go further , never reach that limit if you want a high quality buds, in my case tolerance is 1.4 and i'll reach to that level only once a week to cause precision stress , love your plants and have a happy growing!

Welcome to my THC BOMB AUTO sponsored by MSNL & Spider-Farmer. 8-14 Days My auto was put into an 11L pot before any stress hit her to hard. So, the last few days the pheno has really picked up. And looks like she's gonna be a nice big auto. "Touch bud" nice and healthy. Maintenance I got round to removing the 1st set of true leafs and 1st nodes that go above them. No LST or defoliations until after stretch before pre fower happens. Feeding I've been given about 5 different nutrients. All organic and I give fish force and the Enzymes (Power Roots also) and Alga Grow until she starts showing sex. And I'll put her on water for 5 days or so. And will then start to push more of an even NPK 3-5-5. Shout out to my sponsors and to all who stopped by to have a look. I appreciate you so drop a like so I can visit your work. Either way thanks for stopping by. Comments are welcome with any input.

|»» LOG DISCLAIMER: Not intended as a grow guide. Grow log entries are usually posted 3 weeks later and are for my learning reference. ««| Introduction - Week 11 Summary - Ensign's log, stardate 17517.6, Another healthy week in the garden! Heady OG is filling in her pot beautifully and wow growth is healthy and all I see is green! Ca-Caw! TKO has also been raging and blowing up with growth! Re-strung the scrog frame and dropped it in place. Also upgraded the tent a bit by installing Vivosun’s CFM Kit. Pancaked TKO and started training her to fill in the back two quadrants of the tent. Heady also reached the netting! Started some low-stress training to fill in the front two quadrants. Veg tent has been healthy and gnat free! Super-cropped the mothers and the canopy has been recovering nicely! Also started germinating my first batch of popcorn tea! This will be my first time applying any Sprout Seed Tea (SST) and plan to feed next week. Onwards to next week Ensign!

Canopy is healthy and green! --- Pots also looking incredible and gnat free! Nematodes for the win! - [+01:06]: Quickly checked on the auto-watering system. --- System is still charged and no leaks or kinks found in the tubing. - [+01:10]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. --- Easy night in the garden! Day 02 - Tuesday - 07/01/25 - Total Days: 079 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 85.3°F [29.6°C] - Humidity: 77.4% - VPD: 0.94 kPa - Soil %: [48, 41, 49, 53, 42, 43, 43, 42] ----------------------------------- - [13:03]: Smoke update! --- Wow! I think I found the one! --- Both of the Garlic Budder phenos (OG#1 and OG#2) are getting pretty dank! --- Both have been curing for a good 6-7 months (since 12/13/24) and now taste completely different! The #2 pheno now has a pungent earthy fuel profile which has made her a keeper! The #1 pheno is more on the purple sweeter terp profile side, which is not really enough to be a keeper, but the smoke is definitely smoother and terpier than before. --- Still searching for more keepers, but now have a potential mother to breed with. Getting hyped! --- Wow curing really does make a huge difference! --- As for the Gorilla Goat phenos, they have been curing for about 3 months (since 04/08/25) and taste okay but nothing special. The #1 pheno still has a pretty loud lemon cleaner nose, but nothing to special on the smoke. Yet. I think. --- Also, for this cycle, plan to probably reduce the 18/6 harvest flip from 7 days down to 4 days. I think 7 days might have been too long and may have caused some re-vegging. --- Will continue to pheno hunt for more keepers! - [16:21]: Evening check on the 4x4 tent. --- Wow the garden is raging! --- All growth looks green and the canopy is filling in! --- Heady OG is starting to reach the side of the 30 gallon pot, but still has a ways to go before reaching the scrog frame. Growth looks healthy and green so I’m happy! --- Wow TKO is bushy and getting enormous! She has already started to fill in the front left quadrant of the tent. - [16:23]: Alright! Time to start scrogging and training out the canopy. Let’s go! --- Temporarily took the PVC scrog frame out of the tent. - [16:35]: Okay time to re-string the frame! --- Like always, used mason string for the netting and double-looped each screw. Strung the vertical lines before weaving the horizontal lines over and under the vertical lines. --- Also covered the top of each corner with foil and masking tape. - [17:14]: Done! Scrog frame is re-strung and looking great! --- Set the frame aside for a bit. - [17:15]: Going to give Vivosun’s High CFM (cubic feet per minute) Support Kit a try. --- Once the scrog frame is installed, the back area is difficult to access. So need to install the kit before placing the frame back in. --- The kit came with 4 identical support bars which snap snugly onto the vertical tent bars. --- Assembly was pretty straight forward and the bars snapped and screwed together with ease. --- To make the process a lot easier, I installed all the corners first. The bars easily snapped into the corner pieces and once fully secured, the whole tent feels a lot more stable. The kit also widens the tent to keep the fans from hitting the sides. --- Left the front bar off for now (only have the front corners installed). --- To ensure that the support bars are level, decided to place the bottom (back and front) bars just above where the tent bars snap together (about 41 inches from the floor). The top (side) bars were installed just above (about 43 inches from the floor). --- These bars should help to keep the walls of the tent expanded which should give more room for the oscillating fans. - [18:05]: Installed and gently dropped the scrog frame into place. --- Secured each corner to each corner (flag pole) clip. --- The frame height was not adjusted and the netting is about 33 inches from the floor. --- Also trained TKO and tucked her taller branches under the netting. --- Super-cropped and pinched a few branches and redirected them away from the front area of the tent. --- Lastly, installed the front CFM bar. --- Keeping the front area clear for Heady OG and won’t flip to flower until the frame is completely full. --- Heady OG still has yet to reach the netting, but that’s okay. --- Plan to veg for another month or so before flipping to flower so Heady OG has plenty of time to fill in the front. --- Grow strong my girls! - [18:19]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 46% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 41% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 54% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 53% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 40% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 43% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 47% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 40% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] | 45 - 60% [Moist] | 70% [Wet] - [18:21]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Mothers are vegging along beautifully and wow the canopy has exploded! --- The canopy has almost reached the grow light! --- Time to super-crop! - [18:35]: To make the process a lot easier, used a pair of needle-nose pliers. --- For added cushioning, the tips of the pliers were wrapped in masking tape. - [18:37]: Perfect! The canopy is flat and a good 5-6 inches lower! --- The pliers made super-cropping a whole lot easier! Especially stoked on how well they worked on the Garlic Budder phenos in the back. Both have brittle branches and when pinching and bending, a few usually break. But not when using the pliers. Nice! --- Pots also look great and no signs of gnats! The double inoculation seemed to have eliminated the larval population and the under canopy is thriving! - [18:41]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. --- Another grow day done! Day 03 - Wednesday - 07/02/25 - Total Days: 080 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 85.4°F [29.7°C] - Humidity: 78.1% - VPD: 0.91 kPa - Soil %: [49, 40, 49, 53, 43, 41, 43, 45] ----------------------------------- - [23:06]: Quick night check on the 4x4 tent. --- Looking green and growth is perking up nicely! --- Heady OG is getting bigger and she has almost reached the edge of the pot. Also no gnats and no flooding. Perfect! --- TKO is recovering from the scrogging an growth is straightening up towards the grow light! Great! --- Trained a few of TKO’s front branches. Trying to keep her front growth from over taking the front area. - [23:17]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Wow! Growth has almost fully recovered and most already perky! --- Canopy is nice and low with tops everywhere! --- Pots also look great and gnat free! - [23:19]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. Day 04 - Thursday - 07/03/25 - Total Days: 081 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 85.1°F [29.5°C] - Humidity: 77.5% - VPD: 0.93 kPa - Soil %: [48, 40, 49, 53, 41, 41, 42, 41] ----------------------------------- - [09:08]: Quick morning check on the 4x4 tent. --- Looking healthy in the garden! --- Heady OG is continuing to widen out and has stretched just beyond the sides of her pot! --- TKO is recovering nicely with even and beautiful top canopy growth! - [09:10]: Quickly checked on the 3x3 veg tent. --- Mothers are vegging along and looking healthy! --- Sleep well my girls! - [16:26]: Evening check on the 4x4 tent. --- Caw-Caw! Good morning ladies! Garden is looking healthy and green! --- Heady OG is looking bit droopy but she is just waking up. --- TKO is looking healthy and perky! - [16:59]: Took the weekly general PPFD readings. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was around 307 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 19.89 mol/m²/d under an 18/6 light cycle. ------ TKO was around 344 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 22.29 mol/m²/d under a 18/6 light cycle. - [17:14]: Took height and light distance measurements. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was about 17" tall. ------ TKO was about 20.5" tall. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was about 4" away from the scrog netting. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was about 36" away from the grow light. ------ TKO was about 31.5" away from the grow light. - [17:24]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 52% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 40% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 54% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 53% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 40% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 40% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 45% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 42% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] | 45 - 60% [Moist] | 70% [Wet] --- All WittFlow units are also connected and charged. One unit is getting low, but still okay. Need to swap out soon. - [18:32]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Looking great in the mother tent! All growth is raging and starting to stretch upwards again! --- Pots look good and no signs of gnats. Perfect! - [19:22]: Ca-Caw! Time to start making some popcorn tea! --- This will be my first attempt at any form of Sprouted Seed Tea (SST). What can possibly go wrong right? --- Anyways, --- Shoutout to Easy-E and Bleezy along with Minnesota Nice for the basic recipe and technique! Feed the worms and keep the soil hydrated. The worms will do the rest. --- Of course shoutout to the legend who inspired all three, Subcool420. His videos are still on YouTube and are an inspiration to keep striving to grow better and to eventually breed the best genetics. Peace and live forever through good memories. 🖖 --- Over a decade of dope and living soil is still the way to grow! Stay up weed nerds! --- Adjusted the original 10 gallon SST recipe to a 1 gallon batch. --- Also adding in a bit of aloe for the initial seed soak. --- To germinate and sprout the popcorn, using a one pint (2 cups) wide-mouth mason jar. --- Alright Ensign, don’t frack this up! Let’s go! ------ Added 2tbsp of Popcorn Seeds ------ Added 1 cup of RO water ------ Added 1/64tsp of Horticultural Aloe --- Mixed the solution and seeds around a bit. - [17:46]: Decided to also place the jar on the heating mat. --- The thermostat is set to a warm 83°F (currently at 85.2°F) --- Shouldn’t be an issue since the local weather is warming up, but just want to keep the jar nice and warm. --- To keep the jar insulated, covered it with a towel. --- Done! --- Going to soak the seeds for at least 24hrs before draining out the water. Then plan to rinse the seeds daily with RO water for about a week before blending up and feeding! --- The sprouted popcorn will contain both growth enzymes and cytokinins which will help the soil biology. --- Also the worms will enjoy the extra nutrients! - [+00:55]: Quickly checked on the auto-watering system. --- System is still charged and no leaks or kinks found in the tubing. - [+00:57]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found.

Growth looks green and healthy which is the most important. --- TKO is just raging! Tops are already pointing straight up and stretching towards the grow light. - [16:31]: Using both my hands and a chop stick, --- Tucked and trained TKO a bit more. - [16:34]: Alright! The canopy is nice and even! --- Will continue to re-direct growth to the back right quadrant of the tent. --- Wow! TKO’s main stalk is thickening nicely! --- Anyways, grow strong my girls! - [16:39]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 52% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 40% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 51% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 52% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 41% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 44% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 40% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 46% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] | 45 - 60% [Moist] | 70% [Wet] - [16:41]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Mothers are all looking healthy and perky! --- Pots are still gnat free! --- Easy evening in the garden! --- Okay!

Die Woche war recht kurz. Ich habe nicht gegossen, sondern die Pflanze das restliche Wasser aus dem Substrat saugen lassen. Geerntet wurde an Blütetag 57 Bei der Ernte sind 494,8g an dicken Buds und 274,7g Trimm und kleinere Buds auf der Waage gelandet. Den Trimm und die kleinen Buds werde ich zu bubble Hash verarbeiten. Der Großteil der Ernte hängt jetzt aber erstmal im Trocknungszelt. Ich halte dort die Temperatur bei 18-19grad Celsius und die relative Luftfeuchtigkeit bei 50-55%. Überwacht durch den Trolmaster Tent-X. In ungefähr einer Woche sollten die Buds bereit für die Gläser sein und dort dann ihr ganzes Aroma entfalten. Der TrolMaster Tent-X Controller hat mir bei diesem Grow sehr schön gezeigt an welchen Parametern ich noch schrauben muss um das Maximum herauszuholen. Mithilfe der Temperatur und RLF Überwachung und der damit verbundenen Dimmfunktion der Lampe hat alles ganz gut miteinander harmoniert. Ich werde mir definitiv noch ein paar Erweiterung für den Tent-X zulegen. The week was quite short. I didn't water, but let the plant suck the remaining water out of the substrate. I harvested on flowering day 57 At harvest, 494.8g of thick buds and 274.7g of trim and smaller buds landed on the scales. I will process the trim and the small buds into bubble hash. All of the harvest is now hanging in the drying tent. I keep the temperature there at 18-19 degrees Celsius and the relative humidity at 50-55%. Monitored by the TrolMaster Tent-X. In about a week, the buds should be ready for the jars, where they will develop their full aroma. With this grow, the TrolMaster Tent-X controller has shown me very nicely which parameters I still need to tweak to get the maximum out of it. With the help of the temperature and RH monitoring and the associated dimming function of the lamp, everything harmonized quite well. I will definitely buy a few more extensions for the Tent-X.

🌾 Harvest Day — The Grand Finale of the Eternity Grow Cup 🌾 Days 72–73 | Trimmed on May 25 | Posted May 27 What a journey this has been — and what a finish. These five incredible Runtz phenos have now completed their cycle, and today, we celebrate the final stage of their flowering life: the Harvest. We sent the girls into darkness on Day 70, allowing them a full 48+ hours of rest and reset. The dark period was just a bit longer, truth be told, because time… it flows as it must. This extended dark time helps increase resin production, allowing the trichomes to mature just that final bit more. On Days 72 and 73, we harvested them with care and reverence. Each plant was hung upside down, whole, in a perfectly controlled 60% humidity environment for 13 full days. Before hanging, we gently removed only the fan leaves, leaving all trichome-rich sugar leaves in place — a natural armor for the delicate resin glands during drying. Why do we do this? Because those sugar leaves help protect the essential oils and terpenes, preserving potency, flavor, and aroma for the smoothest experience later on. 🌿 The Dry Room & The Trichome Guardians Throughout the drying, we used a moisture meter to monitor the moisture content in the stems. Once it dropped to around 12–13%, we knew it was time. This tool is a simple but game-changing ally in ensuring a perfect dry — not too fast, not too slow. We then trimmed everything by hand over a 6.5-hour focused session. Armed with trim bins and good energy, we collected an abundance of glistening trichome heads in the process — a golden bonus from these resin-packed beauties. The leaves themselves told a story: deep purples, near-black shades, autumn fades and metallic tones — just stunning. Each girl was trimmed in order: #5 → #4 → #3 → #2 → #1, revealing dense, chunky buds all the way from top to bottom. Not a single pop-corn bud among them — only rock-solid nugs, heavyweight champions in every sense. 📦 Cure Begins – Grove Bags & Glass Jars Once trimmed, the buds were tucked carefully into Grove Bags and glass jars, each stabilized at around 61% RH. The Grove Bags handle the microclimate beautifully, keeping humidity between 58–61%, perfect for preserving all that hard-earned quality. We’re now opening the jars daily, monitoring aroma and feel. This part of the process — the cure — is where the soul of the flower truly comes to life. ☀️ UV, Reds & The Perfect Run Part of what made this run so special was the precision in light spectrum. 40% whites, full reds, UV and IR, and the girls responded like royalty. The UV pushed trichome development to the max. The deep reds gave us thickness, color, and weight. All of it under ThinkGrow Model Ones powered through the Trolmaster ecosystem — everything syncing in harmony. This run was stable, lush, expressive — a grower’s dream. To my eyes, this was a perfect run. ⚖️ Final Yield: 1,302 Grams (1.3 kg) In a 4x4 tent — that’s just 1.2m x 1.2m for metric friends — we pulled in 1,302 grams of flower, not even counting the buds that were taken for filming, photos, or “quality control testing” along the way. 😉 Dense. Loud. Sticky. Resinous. 🌿 The Hidden Half: A Tribute to the Roots In every grow, there’s a part we don’t always see — a part that lives underground, quietly holding everything together. The roots. And this time, I wanted to honor them too. When we unpotted the plants after harvest, we were met with massive, dense root systems, completely filling the Autopot trays. These roots were vibrant, white and healthy, looking like noodles in a thick herbal soup — a true sign of vitality. The Autopots system, combined with the Aptus Holland Clean Program and Plagron Green Sensation, made sure they had the perfect environment to expand, absorb, and thrive. The PRO-MIX soil was the perfect foundation — light, fluffy, with excellent aeration. It all worked in harmony. After unpotting, I carefully washed every root system, removing all soil to prepare them for the next chapter of their story. Now, they’re hanging and drying — and will be left to cure for at least one month, possibly more, in a dry, dark, and well-ventilated space. But why keep the roots? Because cannabis roots hold ancient value — both medicinal and ritualistic. Though they don’t contain cannabinoids like THC or CBD, they are rich in alkaloids, triterpenoids, sterols, and other therapeutic compounds that can be anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antifungal, and calming. Medicinal Benefits of Cannabis Roots: • Friedelin – known for liver protection and anti-inflammatory effects • Pentacyclic triterpenoids – believed to support immune and anti-tumor functions • Alkaloids – some studies suggest pain-relief and muscle-soothing properties • High levels of fiber and tannins – excellent for digestive and skin applications 🍵 Root Medicine — Ways to Use Dried Roots: Once fully dried (they should snap like twigs, not bend), they can be gently crushed, powdered, or infused: 🌿 Cannabis Root Tea Soothing & Detoxifying • 1 tablespoon of dried, ground roots • 3 cups of filtered water • Simmer gently (do not boil) for 20–30 minutes • Add a bit of ginger or lemon for taste • Sip warm, especially good for menstrual discomfort, inflammation, and general relaxation 🍲 Healing Root Soup Base Brothy & Nourishing • Add a handful of dried roots into a veggie broth or bone broth • Simmer for 2+ hours • Strain before serving • This adds a subtle earthy tone and allows the healing properties to infuse your meal Topical Root Cream or Balm Great for sore muscles or irritated skin • Infuse roots in olive oil or coconut oil (low heat, 2–3 hours) • Strain and mix with beeswax to form a balm • Add essential oils like lavender or eucalyptus • Apply to temples, joints, or sore areas 🛁 Root Soak Bath Perfect for grounding and full-body relief • Bundle dried roots in muslin or cheesecloth • Steep in hot bathwater for 15 minutes before entering • Let the soak draw out toxins and ease tension ⸻ The roots are more than just the anchor of the plant. They are its memory, its foundation, its quiet miracle. By using them, we honor the entire lifecycle — nothing is wasted, and everything has a purpose. This part of the process is new for many growers, and I truly encourage anyone reading this to try saving and reusing the roots. Dry them, process them gently, and let them offer you one final gift. Much love to Aptus Holland, Plagron, Autopots, and PRO-MIX — this wouldn’t have been possible without their harmony working underground while the beauty bloomed above. 🌱 The Gift That Keeps Giving: Reusing the Soil As we say goodbye to one incredible season, we begin quietly preparing for the next. But not everything gets thrown away. In this garden, nothing is wasted. Just like the roots, the soil gets another life. After each harvest, I carefully remove the remaining roots and break up the soil. I inspect it, rejuvenate it with compost and beneficial microbes when needed, and most importantly, I repurpose it — giving it a second life in my outdoor veggie garden. Why do I do it? Because this soil has already done something extraordinary. It has supported life, held moisture, breathed air, balanced nutrients, and fed plants that became medicine. It’s not just dirt — it’s a living ecosystem. And to throw it away would be to ignore its potential. In my veggie garden, this recycled soil now nurtures cucumbers, tomatoes, courgettes, and so many other little miracles waiting to unfold. It’s a beautiful way of continuing the cycle, taking all the energy and intention that was once used to grow cannabis and transferring it into growing food. 🌞🍅🥒 🌾 The Benefits of Reusing Soil: • Sustainability — less waste, less environmental impact • Cost-effective — no need to constantly buy fresh medium • Soil memory — rich in organic material, microbial life, and structure • Nutrient potential — amended soil still holds value for many plants • A deeper connection — a way to honor the entire cycle of growth When we reuse our soil, we’re not just being resourceful — we’re believing in tomorrow. We’re trusting that what we’ve built can be rebuilt. That what has been used can become useful again. That from what seems like an ending, something new can always emerge. And maybe that’s the most powerful message of all in this journey: Planting is believing in tomorrow. 🌍🌱 Every seed in the ground is a little act of faith. So as this season comes to a close, the first tomatoes have been planted. The cucumbers are reaching for the sun. The courgettes are settling in. And the same soil that once gave us dense, resinous flowers is now feeding the vegetables that will grace the table. From harvest to hope — the cycle continues. And it’s beautiful. 🎉 The Final Touches Fun fact: • Trimmed on May 25 • Photo shoot on May 26 • This report: May 27 • Dry Bud Exclusive Photo Set: Coming soon Stay tuned — the next upload will be something special, just in time before the Eternity Grow Cup closes on May 31st. ⸻ 💚 Thank You To Zamnesia — your genetics were nothing short of extraordinary.

Week 4 of flower is done. Adjusted the nutrient solution to the temps/humidity (vpd). If the VPD is high the solution should be more diluted. (At a VPD of 2 the Water Transports and transpiration is twice as high compared to a vpd of 1). This week I lowered the day/night temp difference for pest and disease control. By week 6 I’m going to lower the temps in general for quality and terp preservation. A bit defoliation was done to keep up a good circulation of air and a good penetration of light.
