I would like to express my gratitude to Plagron and Zamnesia for organizing this incredible contest, providing the community with the opportunity to participate, showcase their skills, and learn from one another for free. Initiatives like this strengthen the spirit of the community and highlight the talent of so many unknow dedicated growers. I am BelSun, a 34-year-old guy who started planting in 2018, mainly focusing on autoflowers,indoor setups and organic grow . Hope you enjoy my Journey on Eternity Grow Cup 2025 🏆💚 The main setup and a simple recipe on this journey as a thank you to Plagron and Zamnesia 👨🏻‍🌾 Runtz Automatic Zamnesia (3 seeds) Fabric Pot 3x15L RoyalRoom Classic C100 Electric Sky 180w v2 Plagron - Seeding & Cutting Soil Plagron - BatMix Soil Plagron - Perlite Plagron - MegaWorm Lurpe - Earth Vibes Super Soil Lurpe - Volcanic Ash Cultivers - Basalt Powder THC - Epson Salt THC - Delomite Vithal - Bokashi Mycoterra - Alfalfa Meal Canna-BioRHIZOTONIC Agrobactérias - Bactomatik Rex Plagron - Alga Bloom Plagron - GreenSensation *Plagron Schedule 100% Natural *Topdress amendments along the way if needed. *Light Schedule: 20h *Watering System: Manualy *Paper Towel MethodI I'm going to start in the middle of January, for now I still have some plants finishing flowering in the tent. Good luck for all! 💚 ------------------------------------------------------------------- #10/01/2025 I’ve prepared my Super Soil mix, and it’s now cooking until I start germination, which will be in about 3 weeks. ------------------------------------------------------------------- #03/02/2025 For germination, I leave the seeds in a bottle of water for 12 hours, then transfer them to a paper towel until they sprout a root. This method has worked well for me! ------------------------------------------------------------------- 04/02/2025 I’ve transferred the seeds to the paper towel method! Now it's time to Pot preparation! For my pots, I use a three-layer method, filling each layer while shaping them with different-sized pots: - First layer: Super Soil - Second layer: Regular fertilized soil (BatMix by Plagron in this case) - Third layer: A light soil with mycorrhizae (Seeding Soil by Plagron) ------------------------------------------------------------------- #05/02/2025 I’ve planted the seeds! I'm using a cheap LED light from Amazon just to kickstart germination and gain a few extra days to finish flowering the plants in my tent. As soon as they sprout, I'll transfer them to the tent, where my old but fantastic Electric Sky 180W is waiting for them! ------------------------------------------------------------------- #08/02/2025 Two of them have already germinated, but one still hasn’t. I’m struggling with low temperatures, as it's been only 12°C during the day and between 3°C and 7°C at night. Unfortunately, I had a bit of bad luck—my lamp fell onto the pot, disturbing the soil and seeds of two plants. One of them is the one that hasn’t germinated yet. Just in case, I’ve put two more seeds in the paper towel method as backups. If I don’t need them, I’ll give them to a friend! 🙂 ------------------------------------------------------------------- #10/02/2025 I placed them in the tent on the 10th. Two of them germinated on the 8th, while the other was affected by the lamp falling. I’ll probably replace it with one of my backup seeds and offer #R03 to a friend, but it all depends on how things go in the next few days. ------------------------------------------------------------------- #12/02/25 I replaced the seed that went into shock with one of my backups. So, from now on, #R03 will be the backup seed, and it will be about a week behind the others. --------------------------------------------------------------------- #13/02/2025 The backup seed has sprouted! 🌱 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

I had to create a new week to reactivate my diary. I'm now starting the germination phase, which you can follow in the previous week. Apparently, diaries in contests that go a month without updates get hidden, and a grave icon appears in the diary title. According to GD support, it's necessary to create a new week for the diary to become visible again. Just sharing this info for anyone who might experience the same issue and not know why it's happening! However, keep in mind that once you create the new week, it won’t be possible to delete it afterward. 💚 ------------------------------------------------------------------- #Summary of previous weeks: I started germination by soaking the seeds for 12 hours in water, then transferring them to a paper towel until they sprouted roots. I prepared the pots using a three-layer system: Super Soil, fertilized soil (BatMix Plagron), and seedling soil by Plagron with mycorrhizae. I planted the seeds on 05/02, and by 08/02, two had germinated, but one struggled due to cold temperatures and an accident with the lamp. As a precaution, I started two backup seeds. On 10/02, I moved the germinated ones to the tent, and on 12/02, I replaced the failed seed with a backup (#R03), which is now one week behind the others. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Start of the first week of vegetation #12/02/2025 💦 Only water 💡 Light schedule: 21 hours (06h30-03h30) 📏 Lamp To Plant Distance: 85cm ⚡ Dimming: 45% 🌡️ Average temperature: 19,5° ☔ Average humidity: 72% 🌱Height: - #R01: 10 cm - #R02: 7 cm - #R03: 0 cm (backup Seeds, 1 week behind) --------------------------------------------------------------------- #13/02/2025 The backup seed has sprouted! 🌱 --------------------------------------------------------------------- #14/02/2025 I diluted 1ml of Bio Rhizotonic by Canna in 1.5L of water and have been using a spray bottle to lightly moisten the entire surface of the pot in a superficial way. I plan to continue this method throughout the first week. --------------------------------------------------------------------- #15/02/2025 ⚡ Dimming update: 50% --------------------------------------------------------------------- #18/02/2025 ⚡ Dimming update: 55% They're doing well! #R01 was the one that stretched the most, I had to add a support to keep it from falling over. #R02 is growing at a normal pace #R03 (the backup seed) is catching up on the lost days, which makes me really happy. That said, over the next few weeks, I'll still consider whether to go with a SCROG net as initially planned or just stick with LST. Well... we’ll see! The plants themselves will help me decide what works best for them. 🌱 --------------------------------------------------------------------- #19/02/2025 First time doing a proper watering! I gave 300ml of water around each plant, making sure it only soaked into the BatMix soil layer, leaving the Seedling Soil dry. This way, the water will gradually wick up from the side layers, bringing the first nutrients to the plants in a gentle way. At the same time, this will also activate the mycorrhizae that were pre-applied between the layers and encourage the roots to expand. --------------------------------------------------------------------- End Of the week 1 VEG: 🌱Height: - #R01: 15 cm - #R02: 10 cm - #R03: 7 cm (backup Seeds, 1 week behind 💚

📋Summary of previous weeks: I kept watering only by misting the surface and set the light schedule to 21h daily (06:30-03:30), with the lamp at 85cm and dimming adjusted from 45% to 55% throughout the week. The average temperature was 20°C and humidity 72%. The backup seed #R03 germinated on 13/02, and I started applying Bio Rhizotonic (1ml/1.5L) on 14/02. On 19/02, I did the first complete watering around the plants (300ml per plant, only water). 🌱Heights at the end of the week/beginning of this one: -#R01: 15 cm -#R02: 10 cm -#R03: 7 cm (backup, 1 week behind) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 2️⃣Week Vegetation: 20/02 - 27/02 💡 Light schedule: 21 hours (06h30-03h30) 📏 Lamp To Plant Distance: 80cm ⚡ Dimming: 55% 🌡️ Average temperature: 20,5° ☔ Average humidity: 72% 🌱Height: - #R01: 15 cm - #R02: 10 cm - #R03: 7 cm (backup Seeds, 1 week behind) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #21/02/2025 I watered again with 300ml, this time diluting 2ml of Bio Rhizotonic by Canna in 1l of water , which will be my last application of this product.

📋Summary of previous week Previous week, the plants grew steadily under a 21-hour light schedule, with the lamp at 80cm and dimming adjusted from 55% to 60%. The average temperature was 20.5°C and humidity 72%. Watering included 300ml per plant with Bio Rhizotonic on 21/02, a light misting on 23/02, and 1L of bottom watering on 24/02, and another 300ml of plain water on 26/02. Overall, a smooth week with good development! 📈 🌱Heights at the beginning and at the end of the previous week: -#R01: 15cm - 19,5cm = +4,5cm -#R02: 10cm - 12cm = +2cm -#R03: 7cm - 10,5cm = +3,5cm (#R03 Backup Seed, 5Days Behind) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 3️⃣Week Vegetation: 28/02 - 07/03 💡 Light schedule: 21 hours (06h30-03h30) 📏 Lamp To Plant Distance: 80cm ⚡ Dimming: 65% 🌡️ Average temperature: 20,5° ☔ Average humidity: 72% 🌱Height: - #R01: 19,5 cm - #R02: 12 cm - #R03: 10,5 cm (Backup Seed, 5Days Behind) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #28/02/2025 Today, I only moistened the surface. Tomorrow, I’ll probably do a proper watering. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #01/03/2025 I bottom-watered with 500ml of water and added 300ml around each plant. 💧 --------------------------------------------------------------------- #03/03/2025 Today, I diluted 10g of Bactomatik Rex by Agrobacterias in 4L of water and watered the three girls. Approximately 1.3L per plant 💦 This will probably be the last watering, I'll just use a spray to keep the surface moist for the rest of the week. 💚 #Bactomatik Rex by Agrobacterias # #COMPOSITION -N-2% -P-1% -k-2.5% -Amino acids: 10% -Organic matter: 35% -Paenibacillus azotoformans, Bacillus azotofixans, B. coagulans, B. megaterium, LactobacillusLus acidophilus, B. pumilus y Sacharomyces cerevisiae. --------------------------------------------------------------------- #05/03/2025 I'm facing some issues—before the last watering, the plants started showing yellowing on the leaves of the new branches. I believe I prepared the SuperSoil layer too hot, and as the roots reached the over-fertilized layer, they got affected. Some suggestions pointed to a nitrogen deficiency, but I don’t think that’s the case. I applied a good watering with Bactomatik, which contains 2% nitrogen and nitrogen-fixing bacteria. This was already a planned watering, and while the plant started stretching a bit, I haven’t noticed any improvements in leaf coloration yet. I’ll keep monitoring closely to see how it recovers. But If anyone has a suggestion pointing in a different direction, I'm here to listen! 👂 --------------------------------------------------------------------- #06/03/2025 So, I decided to bring some company with the Nutrient Pack of Companion Plants from Zamnezia! 🌿 --------------------------------------------------------------------- #07/03/2025 Today, I started the first training by bending the main stem towards the area with more spacing between the lower branches. At first, I considered only training R01 and R02, since R03 is 5 days younger, but I ultimately decided to go ahead with LST on all three at the same time. The plan is to apply the SCROG net in the coming weeks, although I’ll likely need to elevate R02 and possibly R03 to keep them at the same level as R01. ----------------------------------------------------------- End Of the week 3 VEG: Sorry, guys! I forgot to measure them before doing LST. 😅 🌱Height after LST : - #R01: 19,5 cm - #R02: 12cm - #R03: 12 cm (backup Seeds, 1 week behind

📋Summary of previous week This week, I applied first LST training to all three plants and dealt with some yellowing on new branches and leaves, likely caused by roots reaching the SuperSoil too soon rather than nitrogen deficiency. I watered with Bactomatik Rex (10g in 4L of water), which contains 2% nitrogen and nitrogen-fixing bacteria, and while the plants responded well, there hasn’t been significant color improvement yet. The SCROG net setup is planned for 1-2 weeks from now, and I may need to elevate R02 and R03 to keep them at the same height as R01. Additionally, I introduced companion plants from the Zamnezia Nutrient Pack to enhance soil benefits. Next steps include monitoring the yellowing issue, adjusting training, and preparing for SCROG. ------------------------------------------------------------- 4️⃣Week Vegetation: 08/03 - 15/03 💡 Light schedule: 21 hours (06h30-03h30) 📏 Lamp To Plant Distance: 80cm ⚡ Dimming: 65% 🌡️ Average temperature: 20,5° ☔ Average humidity: 72% 🌱Height (after LST): - #R01: 19,5 cm - #R02: 12 cm - #R03: 12 cm (Backup Seed, 5Days Behind) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #08/03/2025 I watered the plants with 700ml each of plain water, no nutrients. 💦🌱 ------------------------------------------------------------- #09/03/2025 I adjusted the LST a bit from two days ago. ------------------------------------------------------------- #10/03/2025 ⚡ Dimming adjusted to 70%. ------------------------------------------------------------- #11/03/2025 This grow will definitely be remembered as the "Grow of Falls"! While trying to adjust the LST on #R02, the pot lost balance and fell from where I had it. Almost certain it’s going to go into shock, as it disturbed the soil quite a bit.. 😥 ------------------------------------------------------------- #12/03/2025 🔧 LST adjustments made and watered with 750ml each of plain water, no nutrients💦 ------------------------------------------------------------- #15/03/2025 Watered with 500ml each of plain water, no nutrients 💦 ------------------------------------------------------------- End Of the week 4💚

📋Summary of previous week During this fourth week of vegetation, #R01 and #R03 continued to develop well. However, #R02 experienced some shock due to a fall while adjusting the LST, which disturbed the soil. As a result, its growth has been significantly slower, and it is already showing clear signs of entering the flowering stage. Throughout the week, watering was done with plain water, no nutrients, varying between 500ml and 750ml per plant. The light dimming was adjusted to 70%, and minor LST adjustments were made. Overall, it was a smooth week for #R01 and #R03, but unfortunately, #R02 will not be able to recover and keep up with the others. ------------------------------------------------------------- 5️⃣Week Vegetation: 16/03 - 23/03 💡 Light schedule: 21 hours (06h30-03h30) 📏 Lamp To Plant Distance: 80cm ⚡ Dimming: 70% 🌡️ Average temperature: 20,5° ☔ Average humidity: 72% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #17/03/2025 I did a more thorough training session with my girls, and I’m really pleased with how #R01 and #R03 are developing. I managed to spread them out well, which has me considering whether to apply the SCROG net. If I do, I’ll need to determine whether #R01 and #R03 alone can fill the tent and if it’s even worth keeping #R02 in there. I’ll assess this throughout the rest of the week and into the beginning of the next. ------------------------------------------------------------- #19/03/2025 R01 has also started showing signs of entering flowering, while R03 hasn’t yet, but since it’s 5 days younger, it should be showing the first signs soon. So today, I made another LST adjustment, watered each plant with 1.2L of water, adding 1.5ml of Terra Vega from Canna and 1ml of Mycochum from Plant Success to feed the microorganisms. Additionally, I raised the lights a bit more and increased the dimming to 85% to try and induce a bit more stretch before flowering kicks in. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #23/03/2025 So guys… This weekend was I didn’t manage to find the time to properly check on my girls or decide whether I should apply the SCROG net — or even if I should keep R02 in the tent or remove her. I’m hoping to get around to it tomorrow, but the window to apply the net is starting to close. Meanwhile, poor R02… as if everything she’s been through wasn’t enough, I ended up snapping her main stem yesterday while trying to adjust the LST. Luckily, I think she’ll be fine — I taped it up and handled her gently to avoid further damage. Today, I watered each plant with 1L of water and 1ml of Canna Terra Vega. Starting next week, I’ll gradually begin applying Alga Bloom and Green Sensation by Plagron. In summary, R03 is turning into a beautiful plant and still shows no signs of pre-flowering — she’s actually the main reason I’m leaning toward applying the SCROG net, as she’s looking perfect for it. R01 is also doing well, though not quite as ideal for the net. Since she’s already entering the flowering stage, I’ll have to make a decision soon. End Week 5 💚

📋Summary of previous week During week 5 of vegetation, both R01 and R03 showed solid development, especially R03. A training session was done to open them up and improve branch distribution. R01 has started showing signs of pre-flowering, while R03, being five days younger, hasn’t yet. R02, unfortunately, suffered another setback: during an LST adjustment, its main stem snapped. It was carefully taped and stabilized, but it’s becoming increasingly clear that it won’t be able to keep up with the others. This week, two watering sessions were done: one with 1.2L of water, 1.5ml of Terra Vega, and 1ml of Mycochum per plant, and another with 1L of water and 1ml of Terra Vega. The light intensity was increased to 85%, and the lights were raised a bit higher to encourage more stretching before flowering begins ------------------------------------------------------------- 6️⃣Week flower : 24/03 - 31/03 💡 Light schedule: 21 hours (06h30-03h30) 📏 Lamp To Plant Distance: 85cm ⚡ Dimming: 85% 🌡️ Average temperature: 20,5° ☔ Average humidity: 67% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #24/03/2025 I decided to make another LST adjustment and I'm starting to consider removing R02 from the tent and placing her on the balcony, allowing more space for R01 and R03, which are now practically filling up the tent on their own. As for the SCROG net, I’ve decided not to use it and will stick with LST until the end. The main reasons are : -I’ve already managed to open up the plants well with LST - R01 is already showing signs of flowering -I’ll be able to handle the plants more freely throughout the contest .. and the main reason , I messed up the measurements for my frame and now need to figure out a way to extend the support pipes a few centimeters to make it fit properly! 😅 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #26/03/2025 Applied a bit more LST today and decided to give them one last watering with Bactomatik from Agrobacterias, but at a lower dose , just 2g in 3L of water, with one drop of SuperVit to give a final boost of nitrogen, beneficial bacteria, vitamins, and amino acids. I also sprinkled a bit of Epsom salt from THC on the surface for magnesium, and some Basalt Rock from EcoForce, which contains 45% silica, to further strengthen the ladies ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 30/03/2025 Watered today with 1.5L per plant, adding 1ml of Terra Vega by Canna and 1ml of Alga Bloom from Plagron. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 31/03/2025 Had to make another LST adjustment on R03 — this girl is definitely keeping me busy! I’m completely out of space in the tent, so from now on the only direction left for her to grow is up!💚 I also did a bit of defoliation — something I don’t usually do with autoflowers, but they really needed it. Nothing major, just a few lower leaves and some that were blocking light from reaching the lower branches. Nothing too crazy!!

📋Summary of previous week I made the decision to skip the SCROG net and stick with LST, as R01 and R03 have nearly filled the tent on their own. R02 might be moved to the balcony to free up space. Two waterings were done: one with Bactomatik, SuperVit, and another with Terra Vega and Alga Bloom. I also sprinkled a bit of Epsom salt and Basalt Rock on the surface. R03 needed another LST adjustment and a light defoliation was done to improve light penetration. ------------------------------------------------------------- 7️⃣Week flower : 1/04 - 08/04 💡 Light schedule: 20 hours (06h30-02h30) 📏 Lamp To Plant Distance: 80cm ⚡ Dimming: 100% 🌡️ Average temperature: 20,5° ☔ Average humidity: 65% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #04/04/2025 We’re starting week 7, and I have to admit I had to take a bit of focus away from the plants this week because I’ve embraced a new professional opportunity. Since I'm just getting started, it’s been demanding that extra mile from me, and only today did I manage to open the tent again. The result? They’ve definitely had a little growth spurt. R03 is now clearly showing signs of flowering, and both R01 and R03 need a small LST adjustment and possibly some light defoliation — something I’ll take care of over the weekend. As for watering, I gave each plant 1.5L with 1ml/1.5L of Canna Terra Vega and 1ml of Plagron Alga Bloom on April 2nd. Regarding R02, I still haven’t moved her to the balcony. I’ve been keeping the tent open, and she’s been sitting just outside. But it’s clear that she’ll be moved soon, and from now on, my focus in the diary and contest will be on R01 and R03. At the start of the week, since the lights were set at a bit of a distance, I increased them to 100% intensity. From now on, I’ll gradually lower the distance as needed and have also reduced the light cycle by 1 hour — so from this week forward, they'll be on a 20-hour light schedule. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #06/04/2025 I did a bit more defoliation and just tightened the LST wires slightly, just to encourage them to spread out one last time. I only watered with 0.5L of plain water each, no nutrients.

📝 Summary of previous week This week, R01 and R03 showed solid progress, with R03 entering early flowering. Light LST adjustments and some defoliation were done to improve structure and light penetration. R02 remains outside the tent and will soon be moved to the balcony. Plants were watered twice — once with nutrients (Canna Terra Vega + Alga Bloom) and once with plain water. Light intensity was raised to 100%, and the cycle was reduced to 20 hours/day. ------------------------------------------------------------- 8️⃣Week flower : 9/04 - 16/04 💡 Light schedule: 20 hours (06h30-02h30) 📏 Lamp To Plant Distance: 80cm ⚡ Dimming: 95% 🌡️ Average temperature: 20,5° ☔ Average humidity: 65% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #09/04/2025 Watered with 1.5L per plant, adding 1ml of Canna Terra Vega, 1ml of Plagron Alga Bloom and 0,5ml mycochum from plant sucess. Last week, I couldn’t stay as active with photo updates due to starting a new job that's been demanding more of my time. Hopefully, this week I’ll be able to keep up better! That said, I’m happy with how the girls are doing — they’re clearly in full flowering mode and growing well. My only concern is some yellowing on the leaves. Since I’ve been keeping nitrogen in the feed, I’ll reduce the light dimming to 95% and start alternating waterings with and without nutrients to see if it helps. -------------------------------------------------------------------- #15/04/2025 I’ve been watering the girls with plain water only. Aside from the initial feed with nutrients, I’ve done two more waterings of about 1.5L per plant. The plants continue their flowering phase, although the leaves are showing some signs of deficiency — something isn’t quite balanced in the soil. I’ll try adjusting the pH to see if that brings any improvement, but as expected, part of the issue likely stems from the soil mix being too hot from the start.

@MonyetDiablero, They’ve grown well and are now doing their final stretch due to flowering! I’m really happy with how they’ve developed, and they’re already starting to spread their smell all over my room 🤤

Thats not lack. Thats abundance, she went from light environment to heavily fertilized. I would not risk adding anything. Just plain phed water for few weeks at least. My view ...

BelSun_420commenteda month ago
@AsNoriu, We were right, she showed a slight improvement, but the issue was the soil being too hot, not a nitrogen deficiency. To confirm, some leaf tips started showing signs of excess nutrients. I've been watering only with plain water to balance things out 💚

BelSun_420commenteda month ago
Yes, I'm leaning more towards that as well. I believe the roots have reached the SuperSoil layer, although I’m also considering the nitrogen deficiency hypothesis that was suggested. However, I doubt it since R01 is twice the size and had the same soil preparation method. Just to be sure, I watered with Bactomatik, which contains 2% nitrogen and nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Now, I'll monitor it closely and see what signs it gives me. Thanks for your insight! 👍🏻🌱

Good luck! I've grown this strain last summer outdoor and really enjoyed it. Laying in the sun, cooling down in the lake and smoking Runtz :D

@BelSun_420, You are indeed a wise and patient man. I'm too hands on. 😅 And we never have a spare tent! 😉 if we had we'd have filled it with something 🧡 I really wish I had one for drying though, that's become an issue for me. 🍃✌️💚

BelSun_420commented20 days ago
@Kirsten, Thanks, mate!💚 Personally, I don’t mind it, but it really depends on the structure the plants end up developing. Sometimes it’s the perfect setup, other times it’s just not worth it, and you can get the most out of the plant with just LST. R03 actually has a structure that would be perfect for a SCROG in a dedicated tent (which I don’t have…) 😅

Thanks, mate! 👍🏻 My humidifier broke during the last grow, so I’m using these buckets of water with an air pump to raise the humidity in the tent! It’s just a temporary setup, I’ll be getting my new humidifier next week. 💨

BelSun_420commenteda month ago
Thanks, mate! It’s possible that I got a bit too excited and ended up preparing a soil that’s too hot 🔥 it's showing signs of that. But let’s see how it recovers.💚 ..I didn’t expect the roots to reach the SuperSoil layer this early, but I think it happened because of the way I watered—only around the plant, which probably motivated the roots to expand faster. 🌱
