Sticky Broccoli Auto ZMA Eternity Cup'26

PhinolaGreen 1st week Looks good so far 😃 👍🏻

PhinolaGreen 2nd week I need to make sure she grows the way I want her to and not how she thinks she wants to grow 😸

PhinolaGreen 3rd week Not much has happened besides the topping. I already gave a bit of fertilizer and of course the Green Sensation from Plagron. Yeah, I'll be uploading new pictures throughout the week, let's see when I can start with the mainlining 😍

PhinolaGreen 4th week She is slowly recovering again and soon I can continue with the training 😊

PhinolaGreen Week 5 I topped her again last week and now she gets to recover a bit. Update from Day 40: Topping number 4 is done and now she gets to recover for a bit 😊

PhinolaGreen 6th Week The last topping was a few days ago, I think this week she's still in Veg and will switch to Stretch in a week. Just gave her a bit more nutrients. I took out the Green Sensation from Plagron for now since it's specifically for Bloom and I don't want it to block anything in the growth right now 😊

PhinolaGreen 7th Week Well, it's progressing slowly, but I've got them looking about how I want. I think she's going to switch to Bloom soon, and now she has 4x Topping behind her. Unfortunately, I messed up the 2nd time, which is why it ended up being 4 tops. But she's holding up well. She's getting a bit more training now, and I'm curious to see if she really explodes in Bloom or stays small; we’ll see 🤷🏻‍♂️🤭 It almost feels like I'm working with a photo, since I can keep her in Veg for so long 😉😅😄 By the way, I discovered some bugs on the lower leaves yesterday, but I think they came from the leaves having contact with the soil repeatedly. That's why I made them so bare. Just to reassure, the rest of the room is clean as far as I can tell. I'll keep an eye on it 😊 Update on the bugs: All clear, they are either beneficial insects or fungus gnat larvae. I haven't noticed any signs of fungus gnats on the yellow traps yet 🤷🏻‍♂️

PhinolaGreen 8th Week Sticky Broccoli Auto from Zamnesia has left the stresses of the mainlining process behind and is now focusing on developing the buds. I really like this strain so far; it handles stress well, and it's working hard and productively. If I also like the effects, I will probably try it again in the future and let it grow normally 😊 Unfortunately, I have a few issues with Mg due to my tap water; it has already received Epsom salt 🙄

PhinolaGreen 9th week I suddenly had massive problems with magnesium last week but I've got it under control 😁

PhinolaGreen 10th week I can't seem to get rid of the magnesium issues, I've already made them look nice again since they were really sad in the meantime. I have to admit that the Sticky Broccoli Auto is my first mainlining plant in an airpot. Cherry Cola RF3 and the Sticky Broccoli Auto were running at the same time, and Thin Mint x Sour Pinot Auto a few days later. It's a bummer that I'm having issues in the cup, but I've learned a lot from the last 3 plants and I'm still diligently learning so I can apply it correctly with Z-Up Auto and all the others 😄 The nutrient demand for magnesium suddenly spikes, which probably has to do with my tap water. I'm trying hard with Epsom salt, but I'm still not really satisfied. Otherwise, the Sticky Broccoli Auto from Zamnesia looks really great, it's growing just as I imagined, aside from the problems 😅😌😄

PhinolaGreen 11. Week Hello you lovely people, Sticky Broccoli Auto from Zamnesia still has signs of Mg deficiency that I just can't seem to get rid of. Luckily, it's not producing any more leaf mass, so I would say the damage affects about 20-30% of the leaves. It's also a bit over-fertilized, but that's not a big deal for the last weeks. She's now getting less nitrogen and more additives for the bloom. In the meantime, the Green Sensation from Plagron is back on the menu. Otherwise, I think she's doing quite well with the LST; I'm practicing different techniques for mainlining on this plant so I can do it better on other plants later. I'm really looking forward to the little indica package and hope for a nice heavy couch-lock effect 🤤🤯 The Greenception GCX4 PWR is currently running 24/0 at 80 watts (40 watts Veg Cluster/40 watts Bloom Cluster), with 2 Aerowave Mini-Fans from Vivosun providing a bit of movement. I can skip the VPD since I never seem to reach the values I need, I feel. I do have a VPD sensor for the room air, but what can I say, I know the values, but they won't help you achieve optimal results with your setup. I moved her into the Spider Farmer 60x60x180 for her last weeks due to space reasons; the tent door is btw open 24/7, and I have minimal problems with fungus gnats, but hardly worth mentioning. I still have those beneficial insects on the plant, and I'm not quite sure if they're helping me or causing more harm. The lower leaves look typically damaged by thrips, but I don't have any. I would have noticed thrips flying around since I spend a lot of time with the ladies and babble to them with my music... Please don't ask me, currently "Elektrisk" by Marcus and Martinus has been on repeat for a few hours. Either it's the music or maybe the weed I'm consuming when I'm with the ladies watching them grow 🤤😍😅 I'm rambling again so much 🤭🤭😂👋🏻 Have a great start to Thursday 😌 PS: 🐰🍽️😄

PhinolaGreen 12th week Sticky Broccoli Auto from Zamnesia has recovered from the magnesium deficiency. I can't get the damage out of the leaves anymore. It's also a bit over-fertilized but that's okay, better that than too little all the time. Otherwise, I really like the plant, it's growing the way I want. It might be a bit slower than the others but that's fine. That's just due to the mainlining and topping. I've been able to shift the normal cycle of the Sticky Broccoli Auto from Zamnesia by almost 4 weeks. I can compare my diary perfectly with the other growers, and theirs is all moving much faster. But I'm also happy that Sticky Broccoli Auto is taking its time because then I can practice a bit on it. The light, a Greenception GCX4 PWR, is running at 50% on 24/0. VPD is okay but not worth mentioning, as the values wouldn't really help you anyway. I'll check in again next week 😌👋🏻😊👌🏻

PhinolaGreen 13th week Everything looks good so far 😃 I had to hang up CO2 bags for the Fastbuds mix pack, and the Sticky Broccoli Auto from Zamnesia is benefiting from it too. The light is shining at 100% in the final stretch, we have a temperature of 31 degrees, and of course CO2 xD

PhinolaGreen 14th week We're slowly getting closer to the end. She's not getting any more nutrients now, I think that should be enough. For the next 2 weeks, she'll be flushed, and then after Easter comes the sacrifice 😮‍💨😄 Most growers are probably already done with their autos, but my Sticky Broccoli Auto's cycle ran 4-6 weeks longer than normal due to the mainlining and training. So it's definitely possible, and I'm happy that despite the issues with magnesium, she handled it well 😌

PhinolaGreen Harvest Sticky Broccoli Auto from Zamnesia for the Cup is ready to cut. I decided on the harvest today and I really think it turned out great 😌 It has a very good flower-to-leaf ratio, and the bud structure is really very sticky, as the name suggests. I'm curious about the effect. Hopefully, it's not too couch-locking, but if it is, that's okay too. I'm happy to have accompanied this lady on her journey 😊
