🌸 Week 8 Flower – The Trichome Symphony Begins 🌸 Eternity Grow Cup This week… it’s all about the frost. ❄️ We are diving deep into the universe of trichomes, those magical crystal-like structures that define potency, aroma, and visual beauty. Each pheno this week is presented with its own dedicated video — so everyone can witness the uniqueness and evolution of these genetics firsthand. The photos? Focused close and true on the trichomes and their stalks, the very essence of the plant’s protective and expressive language. 💎 What Are Trichomes? Trichomes are tiny resin glands that cover the surface of cannabis flowers and sugar leaves. They’re responsible for producing and storing cannabinoids (like THC and CBD), terpenes, and flavonoids — the compounds that create the plant’s effects, scents, and flavors. They act as the plant’s natural defense — from UV rays, pests, and environmental stress — and in return, they gift us with beauty, medicine, and art. Why So Many Trichomes Here? This room has turned into a crystal forest thanks to a harmonious mix of tech, care, and nature: 🔹 Spectrum Tunings: Using the TrolMaster system, we’ve dialed in a spectrum rich in reds, far-reds, and UV at precise times to stimulate trichome production. The plants are responding in full. 🔹 Lighting: The under-canopy power of the ICL 300s, combined with the canopy-level intensity of the Model 1s, is creating full-spectrum saturation from top to bottom. Buds are stacked, frosty, and glowing from every angle. 🔹 Nutrition Synergy: The tag-team of Aptus Holland and Plagron has been flawless. The clean base, balanced micro and macro elements, and biostimulants have driven these girls into full expression mode. You can see the nutrition working in every crystal. 🌿 Where Are We Now? We’re likely one week to ten days from harvest, but of course we’ll follow the plants’ signals. They’re still swelling and building — it’s the final stretch, and they’re sprinting. Nerdy Note: Trichomes can be bulbous, capitate-sessile, or capitate-stalked — and in this run, the capitate-stalked ones are standing tall and loaded. Expect a full cannabinoid and terpene profile when it’s time for analysis.( bro talk not lab hihihihi) 🌟 Let’s take a moment to recognize that we’re witnessing the peak of this cycle. This is living art, frozen in time by a camera lens but alive in scent and energy. This Week’s Feeding Program To support this explosive trichome production in Week 8 Flower, we’re feeding with precision and purpose. Every drop counts now, and here’s the clean, efficient mix we’re running: • Aptus Holland – Regulator: 0.15 ml/L • Aptus Holland – System Clean: 0.25 ml/L • Aptus Holland – RO Water Condition: 0.8 ml/L • Aptus Holland – All-In-One Liquid: 1.25 ml/L • Plagron – Green Sensation: 1 ml/L • pH set at 6.2 💧 We’re keeping it clean, clear, and consistent. No extra PK boosters or unnecessary additives. Just smart nutrition, tuned spectrum, and stable conditions to let the plants express themselves naturally. The synergy between Aptus Holland’s Clean Program and Plagron’s Green Sensation is clearly showing in every frosty bud. This week, we’ve fine-tuned the spectrum to push the plants into full resin-production mode. I’ve reduced the white light intensity to 40% while keeping the reds and UVs running at 100%. This shift focuses energy on the wavelengths that directly stimulate secondary metabolite production—especially trichomes. Red light enhances flower development and density, while UV exposure encourages plants to produce protective compounds, like cannabinoids and terpenes, as a natural defense. This balance between lower photosynthetic pressure and high-spectrum stimulation is helping the girls finish strong, frosty, and full of character. 🙏 Massive thanks to all sponsors, followers, friends, and growers in the community. To the ones competing, to the ones just watching — THANK YOU. This is almost the end of the road, and every diary, every plant, every effort deserves respect. 💬 Don’t forget to follow the full 4K experience on YouTube, and for behind-the-scenes action and updates, join us on Instagram.

Vamos familia, volvemos con las candy caramelo y es que pronto nos pedirán un trasplante y con este caos veremos cómo conseguimos sustrato. Ph controlado a 6,5 siempre hay que controlar este parámetro. Temperatura y humedad correcta En la 2 semana de crecimiento. Os dejo la web y el código para compras en mars hydro. web: http://bit.ly/2uJAjgy ts600: http://bit.ly/3cnv0Ev code: an420 Ya tengo ganas de ver como florecen estas niñas en las próximas semanas las vemos un saludo fumetillas.

* Watering 2l every 3 days * Always tuck in the leaves to expose lower tops The plant its handling the cold very well. Even the trichomes seem bigger than previous plants

This ladies got pretty big for real, hands down the biggest autos I've ever had grown in 7l pots, excellent performance, and the flowers start to stink really strong, there is one pheno which is more developed than the other 2 phenos but the 3 have developed really good and they are producing a lot of sticky and stinky trichomes! Let's see how this will end up! Can't wait 🤤

Start of week 6! Week 5 went well, the girls are all very sticky and smell incredible! The super lemon haze continues to need extra feeding, she's a hungry lady! Both blueberry plants are packing on a lot of weight as the branches are bending and twisting, I tried them up to give them extra support.

Sehr heftiger Stretch durch den zu hohen Lampenabstand. Mal schauen wie es sich entwickelt.

Day 1-14 (March 24th) (Day 14) I sprouted 5 Puro Loco and 1 Slurricane F1 (Archive) seeds in a mini aerogarden hydroponic system on March 10th and they they were getting way too hot in the small space I had it in. It was also given flowering nutes from seed. They started curling and cupping like crazy so I decided to transplant them into soil in solo cups and 1 gallon pots. They’re in my veg tent currently and I’m pretty optimistic that they will all recover nicely. I plan to veg them out for 3-4 more weeks, transplant into 1.7g or 3g pots for their final containers and then flip into flower at the same time as my flower tent. I’m using a dimmable 600w hps in a 4x4 tent with living soil/coco blend and nature’s pride dry amendments plus a few other rock dusts, foliars, teas, microbes ect. I’m keeping the humidity around 80% with my humidifier in my sealed tent. I won’t be topping, scrogging, supercropping ect. Just a little lst here and there. Recent events have caused me to move the plants in my veg tent plants into the flower tent and veg them out there. So that leaves me with an unoccupied veg tent where I can veg these girls out and flip them at the same time as my flower tents. I also have to move my tents by mid June so that worked out well I guess. Just have to buy a carbon filter before the flip. I also found and sprouted a bag seed of some Guava Cake a few days ago that was very nice. If it’s not a vigorous grower, I will scrap it because I’m not trying to risk the herm. Since I have to pack as many female plants as possible in this tent before the flip, I’m going to throw in 5 stunted black garlic seedlings. These ones are from a 12/12 from seed grow box I couldn’t keep lightproof. One of them just identified as male so I will pull his ass. He was the only one showing so hopefully any more males will be visible before the flip. I forgot to add, these were started on March 1st. So let’s just say all these plants are one month old but this will be the first recorded week.
