A step back recently: Started a final flush (2 days in), and decided to start feeding her again - thanks to some great GD input! 250 ppm at re-start and will work my way to 500ppm? She's still rockin' along - like nothing happened. She topped out at 350 ppm without tanking PH, so she is stable here. PH is now swinging down fairly quickly last 12 hours. Drained off 1/3 of reservoir and get reservoir down to 250PPM. 5 days later, major PH swings down again. Mixed another fresh reservoir. I am using Zero Water 5 gallon system, and just realized the PPM coming out was 100, and PH at 3! If I am at 100 today, that means these filters have been shot for a while, maybe since start of my PH issue. There is also interesting information about when zero water filters reach their expectancy. They put out fishy smell and otherwise. I will be watching my filters more often and taking more notes since this ZeroWater 5 gal system is really the way to go if you are only growing a plant or two. Filters are a bit spendy but when you take time, gas, convenience etc. its a no brainer (if the water coming out is zero:) - I get about 15 gallons per filter (175ppm from tap). Day 70. It’s been about a day since new res change. Steady Eddie at 250 ppm and 6.2. I’ll let her drink the bucket down a good ways if things remain stable with a drift down. I doubt it though, 5 gallon is fine for 12” autos but at 2’ she really needed 8 gal. Time to up the R&D on the cabinet! Also checked Zero Water again and filter is now putting out 200ppm of 3.0 water. New filters installed! Hope she finishes soon, the top of her canopy slowly getting cooked over the last 10 days. 8" of light distance is too little. PPFD 2000+ at the top, but leaf temps are in the upper 70's. Gotta hit a decent DLI on these lower buds - without nuking the top nugs, right?! As the week concludes, she’s in a fresh bath, at 250ppm @ 6.0 and running stable again. New water filters installed so zero water variable removed. Last serving of half+ teaspoon of GH dry KB ripening, and will reduce ppm by 25/day until I reach 10-15%. 1-2 day flush, if at all.

D85/FD57 - As per last weeks update, no real change in the SCP. Pistils peaching up so ripening beginning. The Cull of the Cookies has brought down the humidity by 10-15% in the tent so hopefully that will lend itself to saving these girls from "The Cheese"!!! Couple of really decent colas in there so I would be heartbroken binning bud like I did with the cookies!!! With the work last night culling the Cookies, I was lazy tonight, just did an add back (Didnt clean the ilma out like I do every week). Put in at normal ratio's but as the base water was EC0.7 (Rather than 0.2), the same recipe took me up to 1.5 (I should have adjusted but seeing as I dont know whats out, i'd rather give enough of whats needed and just dilute through the week (even if daily!!!). Expecting water consumption to drop now with the cookies halved in size and now just waiting on the ripening! Anyway, happy growing all!!! 💪

Hello GD !!!! This week things went complicated... Both cheese started preflowering and flowering right now, imma put you in the whole context of this .. Im really confused at the moment Both plants showed preflowers, over developed pre flowers ? .... Then hairs appearing, and i started to worry about this.. Temperature was good at 10/5 so put the plants outside, topped the girl and removed a few lower branches Couple of cloudy days and .......more hairs... maybe more like a first stage flower Talked about this with a more experienced grower, he told me that the plants should re vegetate when noticing longer days.. I have been researching and many people coincide with the revegetation, but.... maybe some grower or skilled revegger can help me out ? I mean im feeding the plant with BioGrow ph 6.5, yesterday with Green Explosion and BioGrow to seeif this helps the plant .... My plan was to make a monster plant this year, but things are not going as expected. Got a Jack Herer waiting if i need to germinate a new plant now but would be a mess of Cheese Thank you for your time guys !!!!! EDITED 22/05 : The other cheese which have a slowly develop in comparision, has developed flowers too but are smaller, and seems she is showing ReVegetation Signs !!!! with more leaves in the popcorn buds and new growth, so we are waiting a few days to take a decission. Thank you so much for the advice mates ! EDITED 24/05: The buds are getting frosty .... wtf, temperatures are low, this is a really weird year... Winter come later than usual, and still here..

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 !

The buds are still bulking a little more as of day 64. The trichomes are pretty milky/frosty so the harvest is getting close, but I am not going to rush it if the plant is healthy and the buds are not suffering. My best estimate right now would be between day 68 and 78 for harvest. Day 67: areas of amber colored trichomes are appearing on the calyxes, under 10 percent of total. this is what I have been watching for to indicate harvest time so I will be giving water from here out and begin cutting down the plant in a few days. Thanks for reading!

Here we are at the start of week 2 for this Super Lemon Haze from Green House Seed Company Ltd. So after a perfect first week with rapid growth, good colour, no obvious malformations or deficiencies... I have begun to notice the very beginnings of what I suspect is interveinal chlorosis on the new growth. This would be consistent with the two older grows currently in progress. So I shall be applying a new seaweed extract fortified with iron both into the feed and as a foliar spray when it arrives. Still the growth rate has continued so far. I have moved the plant out of the makeshift humidity box it was in and it is now sitting on top of the pot it will be transplanted into. That will happen when a good number of roots are visible from the bottom of the pot. Lastly, I have started to leave the door half open as this drops the temperature by a few degrees, with the lights lowered and the tent closed it pushes 30 degrees celsius, with it half open it ranges between 25 and 26. am able to keep the humidity around 50% on average, but this ranges from around 60-65% right after watering, down to 45% within about two hours. It seems to settle between 40 and 45% whether the tent is open or closed. I am therefore periodically misting the coco surface and plants throughout the day. They never go unchecked for more than four hours during lights on, rarely more than two hours in practice as whenever I go past the tent I can't help but take a peek. Day 9 (W2, D2): I have dropped the PH from 6.3 to 5.8 on advice from @GrowingGrannie in grow question. Day 10 (W2, D3): Firstly, look at the different in colour in just 24h - I believe the combination of lowering the PH and adding Acti-Vera has made an impact in the iron deficiency. Today I have added seaweed extract with iron. This Super Lemon Haze at ten days is way ahead in terms of growth rate and size compared to all my previous grows. Overall it is about the same size at this point as the Big Bang Auto that is 12 days ahead of it. It is currently pushing out node three. Day 11 (W2, D4): The colour has further darkened and growth continues to accelerate. So far so good! I have transplanted to next pot 2l. I also flushed with PH balanced water and then fertigated. This is a test of the flush I intend on the other plants. Day 12 (W2, D6): Leaves beginning to straighten out. Day 14 (W2, D7): Height: 7cm Width: 9cm Nodes: 4 Weekly growth data: From 5cm Height to 7cm +40% From 6cm Width to 9cm +50% From 2 primary nodes to 4 +100% Week Summary: I think this is about as close to a perfect start as any plant I've ever grown. I am extremely happy with Citronella thus far and excited to see if between us we can keep up her developmental pace.
