🌾 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.

~ FastBuds PAPAYA SHERBET Photoperiod~ Well here we go on another journey together through 'Canna-land' and this one's kinda special... forget that, it's VERY special because this is FastBuds newest surprise for the community, a FEMINIZED PHOTOPERIOD STRAIN!🤯 I was fortunate enough to score these seeds, of which only 1000 were available and can't wait to see what this strain can do! This Papaya Sherbet, according to FastBuds, is a hybrid with a 9-10 weeks flowering period. For a more detailed and accurate description of this strain the following from FastBuds says it best: "Combining the massive stature of Papaya (Oni Selection) with the strength and resilience of one of our best keeper cuts (Sunset Sherbet), this strain develops into a big, expansive bush adorned with numerous bud sites that later transform into a generous harvest of medium-sized buds. Papaya Sherbet flowers deliver a signature flavor of premium cannabis with subtle citrus undertones that emerge upon inhaling. During growth, her aroma makes for a sweet yet pleasantly bitter fragrance, giving you an idea of what the smoke will taste like. Notably stress-resistant, Papaya Sherbet is a great choice for growers working in challenging environments. She is very forgiving and rebounds quickly from any adversity, allowing growers the freedom to experiment with confidence that she will take everything like a champion she is. This strain embodies resilience, flavor, and abundant yields in every grow cycle." Sounds like an epic strain and I personally cannot wait for this lady to strut her stuff!😍 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod indoors as our weather is still a bit too chilly to put a newly sprouted seedling outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 40's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures are in the mid 50's℉, which shouldn't be long. After which, she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes from BioTabs and slow release dry amendments from Gaia Green. Once she's established herself outside she'll be given periodic top dressings of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 along with worm castings and Compost Tea's. Her grow area is approx. 5'x5' and I have posts and a trellis net set up already for when she gets bigger to aid in training her. Let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 5/16- Here we go into the first week of veg and second week since breaking ground for the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod! 5/18- Right away what ever has been chewing on my other outdoor plants, has now decided to take a taste of my Papaya Sherbet so I'll be spraying with Neem Oil and adding a ring of Diaotomascous Earth around the Papaya Sherbet to deter any slugs... I don't like slugs! 5/20- Rain showers yesterday handled the watering duties and all I did was to add some straw to a couple of bare spots on the mound. 5/22- There's two weeks on the books for this pretty little photoperiod from FastBuds and I can't wait to see what she'll do in the coming weeks! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

It grew to within about 10 inches from the light, so 6-8 inches more than last week. I did some FIMing and trimmed off lower leaves this week. I'll check the growth this week and decide to switch the light schedule with the next week or so to 12-12.

Day 57. Watering with clean water. The light schedule has been changed (12x12). Replaced lamp. Day 58. Watering with fertilizers. Day 59. Watering with clean water. Day 60. Watering with fertilizers. Day 61. Watering with clean water. Day 62. Watering with fertilizers. Day 63. Watering with clean water.

Some explosive growth This week. She has calmed down on the drinking a little. The ph has stayed pretty level between 5.6 to 5.8 all week. Pistols are really starting to make an appearance. This will be the last week she gets the transition set of nutrients. I added another 450w viparspectra for flower. Sorry about some of the darker pics I got home right as the lights went out tonight. The smell is still light not heavy at all. She filled the scrog well. I am so surprised at how well this plant is doing now it’s like nothing ever happened. Plant got about 17 hours of dark yesterday do to my power going out cause someone hit a telephone pole in the neighborhood..... back on schedule today and we are at day 13 of flip. According to breeder we have about 8 more weeks to go. I’m no expert but I think she is done stretching (i think)..... I can say as a beginner grower this is an excellent strain so far for my level of experience. Been a little cold at night here but so far no issues

Special Kush # 1 By RQS 3 weeks

Vamos familia, actualizamos la cuarta semana de vida de estas Runtz de MSNL. Tuve problemas con la temperatura que estuvo alta 28/26 grados y humedad dentro de los rangos correctos, la única queja es la temperatura, 16 horas luz, 8 oscuridad, estiraron un poco, pero van lentas por el momento, que cojan fuerza. El trasplante a sido realizado a la maceta definitiva, 7L con sustrato Top crop. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

I was still seeing strange things happen in the leaves but runoff pH was staying at around 6.5. One plant toppled over and started growing up from a bent stalk like an herb. I started looking for a new reflector so that I could mount my light horizontally instead of vertically to save space and ideally find a way to get the plants closer to the light without burning them. I started looking into MH bulbs as well as I figured at this point I clearly hadn't provided the light they needed. If I wanted them to thrive I needed to set them up properly for the last few weeks of veg. I transplanted this week into slightly bigger coco pots but in retrospect I feel I should have gone up to 3 gallon pots at this point.

Hallo zusammen 🤙 Sie wächst sehr schön und macht keine Probleme

D-104 : Last week, I noticed a problem related to the calcium OR to the Ph. I didn't know if it was a deficiency or an excess. So I tried to just wetered girls with the right Ph and A bit more of CalMag 0.8 > 1.2/L. We'll see this week if It was the good choice. fingers corssed !

BlaKX Ai Gude Growmies!!!! RUNDE 2 letzte Woche! Gorilla Punch Auto 🦍 🥊:58cm Mimosa Cake Auto 🍹 🍰:37cm Longbottom Haze Auto: 58 Beim ersten Grow habe ich sie nach 9 Wochen geerntet und dieses Mal habe ich sie 1 Woche länger stehen lassen die Fastbuds Genetiken und die Longbottom Haze ist genau richtig. Wenn ich sehe was aroma und bud technisch durch 1 Woche länger Reifen möglich ist und man es nicht eilig hat und nach Trichomen ernet wird reich haltiger belohnt! Habe sie mit Canna FLUSH gespült und 3 tage trocken stehen lassen die letzten 3 tage. Mir läuft das Wasser im Mund zusammen bei der Farbe und Aromen!!!!

And the time to Flip this cutie pie to flower mode as came, next week update will already be a flower update, sorry that i am doing her update only on the last week day but a lot as happening and with the update came also the video time-lapse update from the first 9 weeks of her life so far that in my humble opinion were stunning af , dont know about you guys but this one as broth me to my beginner growing and all on her is new to me so far , i mean she is a plant and she is a cannabis plant , but she is also so peculiar and unique that for me she is my freaky kale and i love her 🤩🤩🤩💚💚💚 training this girl as been a delight and she is a tough one, i can already imagine her roots just from the size of her body , she might nt look but she is a kind a big and compact plant , hope that she wont be a tall one , counting one the fast 45 days flower time to keep her short lol lets see this week i still gave her normal feeding with root booster but starting next week i will change that for my flower booster and start feeding her some extra P , so far the pellet mixed with the soil have done an amazing job but i know that wen in flower mode she will demand more , i will also incrase my PH from 6.2 to 6.5 as for the PPFD she will grow in to whatever number she can get, not moving the TSW or dimming, i will keep it at 100% and am imagining that if she is now running 600 µMol/m2/S she will grow something like 1000 µMol/m2/S lets see how will she grow wen in 11/13 <3 <3 <3 with this said hope you guys enjoy her life so far via the video time-lapse , i will do a flower one in the end as well a full cycle one but for now enjoy the life so far one💚💚💚 oh i still am loving eating her leafs in salads , with fruits or just raw, they are lemon tree flavored with a touch of spicy, love them, added a few photos from a dragon fruit and some leafs As always thank you all for stopping by , for the love and for it all, i fell blessed to have you all with me for one more love journey, and a different one form the rest i did so far <3 <3 <3 Thank you Thank you Thank you , you guys are great and have been amazing , thank you for everything <3<3<3 #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience #dogdoctorofficial #growerslove

7/4/2021 - Day 43 - pistils coming in, and she’s bulking up. Had her in a tent for a few days due to shit weather but we’re back in action outside. 7/7/2021 - Day 45 - I added a few pics. she's just doing her thing. I just keep coming out every day and moving things around LSTing probably for another week or 2. There are a few nibblets on a couple of leaves but I'm done with the neem oil now that she's flowering. 7/10/2021 - Day 48 - the net is doing wonders for LST. Some branches are starting the stretch, but I’m going to do some more LST until I start seeing actual buds forming.
