Bienvenidos cultivadores de marihuana clandestinos, y también a los que tienen la fortuna de no serlo! 👨‍🌾💦💡🌞🌲 3M ♫ Ʈիє Ңαppỿ ƓrꭥωԵի, último diario de cultivo, que ya es feliz porque no tiene historia; sólo un tributo al proyecto y al tiempo del cultivador de marihuana, que no cree en milagros, que no le importa que le crean tonto, que se cree feliz y por lo tanto es el único feliz... sin explicaciones, con buenos humos y con la certeza de que cultivaré marihuana hasta que me muera! Feliz, muy feliz, por despedirme con una cepa que un día fue la Reina de Color de mi Jardín de la Alegría, y que en el último momento, una plaga virulenta de araña roja, sumado a mi reacción de novato aterrorizado, acabaron por arruinar el cultivo completamente, una deuda reconocida que me dispongo a pagar. 😍👍 Ahora, el éxito está asegurado, por la genética indiscutible, la experiencia adquirida en el camino, el tiempo de verano, mayor maceta, mejores Bio Fertilizantes... y la felicidad añadida!😊😊 Recordamos lo que dice el productor: Purple Shot es una variedad de aromas muy complejos que nos recuerdan a licor de uva y a cítricos. Es el resultado del cruce entre Purple punch, Do-si-dos y nuestra Exotic colors (75% Indica /25% Sativa). Variedad de floración rápida, terminando en 8 semanas (mi anterior cultivo de esta cepa alargó el periodo de floración hasta las 12 semanas), de porte robusto y flores muy densas y repletas de resina... completamente de acuerdo! 😋 La semilla germinó y asomó alegre por el sustrato al segundo día, ahora vive dichosa tomando el radiante sol de verano durante el día, y por la noche, afortunada junto a todas sus compañeras, las grandes y las pequeñas, disfruta de la luz intensa de la carpa de cultivo y del calor de su familia.🌲🌲🌻🌼🌱🌾 Hasta la próxima semana feliz... SALUDOS A TODOS!!🖐️👨‍🌾💧💦🌞💡 ================================= 🙄👇👌👍👉👉🖐️👨‍🌾👍👈👈👈🤜👌🙏👇🤩🖐️🏻

All caught up. Transplanted into 3 gallon pots. Lightly watered with some calmag and recharge Roots were good and just about ready for the upgrade. No pics but I’ll keep this in mind for my next grow and take some. I know I looked on here and watched YouTube videos to see how was done and it has been very helpful

Graduated, and am off from work for a few weeks, so went overboard on photos. Plant is doing well, leaves are starting to turn yellow (strain trait). Can't wait for the harvest and being able legally gift my xmas ornaments to my cousins during our "cousins walk" at our family xmas party.

Eternity Grow Cup - Week 11 VEG Report This is a pivotal week in our Eternity Grow Cup journey as we wrap up VEG and prepare to transition into FLOWER. Our goal has been to ensure that the plants are thriving and optimized for the next phase. This report will detail everything that took place during this crucial week. Mass Defoliation & Structural Training We began the week with an extensive defoliation session. Every leaf with a stem was removed to clear space for optimal light penetration and airflow. This process was done mostly by hand, clicking them off in the opposite direction of growth, while some stubborn ones were snipped with scissors. By the end, it felt like we had taken out nearly half a kilo of leaves! The room now looks clean, structured, and ready to fill out the ScroggNet. To further enhance the plant structure, branches were attached to the pots, allowing for better horizontal growth. This technique helps maximize canopy exposure and prepares the plants for even light distribution once flowering begins. Defoliation before flowering is a key step as it reduces overcrowding, improves airflow, and sets the plants up for efficient energy use in the next phase. Light Schedule & Adjustments This week, we introduced a subtle but effective light adjustment. While still maintaining an 18-hour light cycle, we initiated a 15-minute delay with the whites, allowing the reds to start first. This gradual shift signals the plants that a change is coming. Similarly, at the end of the light cycle, the whites turn off 15 minutes earlier, leaving the reds on for an extended period. This strategy mimics natural sunrise and sunset, helping the plants transition more smoothly into flowering. Additionally, at the end of the week, we will be implementing 48 hours of darkness before the official flip to flower. This method has worked exceptionally well in past grows, helping plants recognize the transition and encouraging a strong start to flowering. However, it's important to emphasize that this is a personal technique and not a universal rule. Every grower should experiment with different methods to find what works best for their specific environment. Environmental Conditions & Challenges Currently, our temperature is at 27°C with 60% humidity, resulting in a VPD of 1.50. While slightly higher than the ideal for VEG, our CO2 levels are over 1000 ppm, and the light intensity is at 570 PPFD, making it a manageable balance. The solution pH is 5.79 (essentially 5.8), EC is 1.38, and water temperature is 17.7°C. One challenge we are facing is maintaining optimal reservoir temperatures. Currently, it's a bit low at 17.7°C, and we are exploring solutions to raise it slightly. However, the medium temperature sits at 22.2°C, which is a good range. The humidifier is still in use, though it struggles to increase humidity further, so we are working with what we have to keep the VPD in check. ICL-300s Integration The ICL-300 lights are now fully active. Unlike the last grow, where we introduced them later, this time they are on from the start of flowering prep. This adjustment is an experiment to see if the plants respond better to an early introduction. Learning is at the core of this journey, and each grow offers new insights. Whether this proves to be the optimal strategy or not, it will be a valuable lesson for future grows. TrolMaster Hub & Data Monitoring Throughout the week, we have been closely monitoring our grow using the TrolMaster App TM+. We are displaying some of the collected data for everyone to see the details. Stay tuned as we explore this further in the next report! As always, we want to extend a huge thank you to our sponsors and the amazing community. Special thanks to Aptus, Groovebags, Cannakan, Promix, Ziggy Papers, TrolMaster,and Plagron, Zamnesia and Grow Diaries for making the Eternity Cup possible. I apprecilove the support from all sides—lovers, haters, competitors, and fellow growers. The competition continues to push us to improve, and i am thrilled to see the incredible reports from others. This is a challenging yet rewarding experience, and i couldn’t be happier to be part of it. For those following along, we invite you to check out our YouTube channel, where we upload full 4K episodes showcasing the entire journey. Some episodes are too large to be uploaded directly to Grow Diaries, so YouTube is the best place to catch everything in high definition. This marks the end of VEG, and we are officially ready to flip to FLOWER. Next week, we will dive into the TrolMaster System in action, check the data insights, and monitor how the garden adapts to the shift. Stay tuned! Growers Love to all, happy growing, and best of luck to all competitors! See you all in the next update!

Welcome to week 3 of my grow diary. Since the plant has grown really well, I decided to top it. I made the cut above node 3. I usually do it above node 2, but I wanted to try something new this time and gain some new experience. Maybe it will work better this way than usual. In addition, I will now just let the plant grow without LST. If it is really necessary, I may decide to do it. At the end of the week, it had reached a height of 14 cm. There was no growth stoppage at all after topping. The Sour Jealousy seems really robust. FastBuds always delivers great quality. So far, I've only had one plant that remained a dwarf due to topping. So big shoutout to the breeder! See you next week

Into week 10, well past the estimated 6 - 8 weeks to harvest time from the online stats, looks like i have a few more weeks to go until they are ready. There has been some expected leaf drop from the lower canopy, the signs of it autumning off are appearing, but all is going well and the buds are developing nicely so far. I started a timelapse a couple of weeks ago in the tent and i've left it to run untill the end of the grow, will be interesting to see how it turns out, i'll upload that on the harvest page. 20/11 Had a slight misshap as i was inspecting the plants and bent a stem over 😱 I utilized two matchsticks and some masking tape to splint it up again, the repair is holding nicely 😬 I've documented the repair and uploaded the video for posterity. 23/11 Fed 2 plants 1/4 tsp molasses 1ltr filtered water @6pH, ec200 with just molasses, just to see if there is any positive effect. Trichomes are just starting to appear. Defoliated the lower canopy, cutting all the smaller buds not getting any light and upper fan leaves to allow more light and energy to hit the main buds.

Had a visitor this week. As I was watering my plants I noticed this red spot on one of the leaves... To my surprise it was a ladybug. I don't have aphids or nothing like that, and I don't have the slightest idea where this litle nugget came from.... Besides that all plants are doing OK, NL 1 is a litlle slower than the other ones and its just now starting to show first signs of flower. The other ones did that last week... The NL1 and MC started drinking and eating a lot. They go trough 700ml in a day and half. Upping the watering dosage this week so I can have more time between waterings. I like around 3 days.

19.1.25: I have watered all plants with 300ml of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3, with 1/3 jar of black strap molasses with Ecothrive Biosys-1g. I am looking to increase the sugars for microbial life and plant processes. It'll also add some extra Calcium, Magnesium and trace elements. I also, watered all plants with Bloom nutrients. Using dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 with the following nutrients: (ml/l) ;- ♡ 2ml Cal-Mag ♡ 2ml Ecothrive Flourish ♡ 2ml Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster ♡ 2ml Biobizz Bloom ♡ 2ml Biobizz Top Max ♡ 1g of Ecothrive Biosys I watered around 1-3 litres per plant. Depending on size and requirements. I'm still spilling water containing the nutrient solution. 🙄 I am using this to rub into the leaves. I think a nice foliar massage won't do any harm, make the most of the situation. The plants have become very hungry and thirsty. Increased the water by double. I ran out of my TNC cal-mag. I decided to order the Xpert Nutrients brand, as I like their products. It isn't organic as far as I can tell, but I don't think it matters too much to me, to be honest. I also want to top dress this week, so I bought some Green Leaf PK bud Booster dry amendment from Amazon, too. I'll mix it with canna coco, perlite, worm castings, and Ecothrive Life Cycle. 24.1.25: I went ahead and top dressed all the plants with 4.5 gallons of my supersoil custom mix. This consists of the following substrate and dry amendments: ♡ 60% Canna coco ♡ 20% Worm castings ♡ 15 % Perlite The remaining 5% consists of the following dry amendments;- ♡ 10g Ecothrive Biosys ♡ 1 Tsp RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules ♡ 3 Tsp Vitalink Bat guano ♡ 4 Tsp Diatomaceous earth ♡ 8 Tsp Ground Cinnamon ♡ 10g Green Leaf Bud Booster PK booster. ♡ 3 Tsp Ecothrive Life Cycle. •Worm castings for some all round nutrition. •Cinnamon for mildew and bug repellent. •Canna coco base substrate. •Perlite for adding oxygen to the root and soil system. •Green Leaf Bud Booster PK Booster for blooming. Building strong big buds. •Vitalink bat guano again for Bloom. •RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules, to boost beneficial microbes. •Ecothrive Life Cycle for lots of great benefits. •Diatomaceous earth for Silica. •Ecothrive Biosys, for an extra microbial Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

SUMMARY: Switched to late bloom nutes on day 73. She's starting to fade prematurely and I don't know why. I was thinking it was the molasses clogging her up as she was draining very slow and so I just fed her pH'd water over the weekend but I should have flushed her properly. DAY 71 ----------- Tuesday 9th March 10:45 I fed the Amnesia 300ml of mid bloom nutes which produced 160ml runoff (53%). I made 5L of mid bloom nutes with tap water and molasses at a pH of 5.8. I made 5L of late bloom nutes with tap water and molasses at a pH of 5.8. Tuesday 9th March 18:00 I fed the Amnesia 150ml of mid bloom nutes which produced 15ml runoff (10%). [25°C/51%] DAY 72 ----------- Wednesday 10th March 11:30 I fed the Amnesia 300ml of mid bloom nutes which produced 160ml runoff (53%). Wednesday 10th March 18:00 I fed the Amnesia 200ml of mid bloom nutes which produced 40ml runoff (20%). [27°C/54%] DAY 73 ----------- Thursday 11th March 11:00 I fed the Amnesia 300ml of late bloom nutes which produced 110ml runoff (36%). I made 20L of late bloom nutes with rain water and molasses. 5L at 5.7, 5L at 5.8, 5L at 5.9, and 5L at 6.2. Thursday 11th March 18:00 I fed the Amnesia 150ml of late bloom nutes which produced 20ml runoff (13%). [26°C/47%] DAY 74 ----------- Friday 12th March 11:30 I fed the Amnesia 300ml of late bloom nutes which produced 80ml runoff (%). DAY 75 ----------- Friday 12th March 14:45 I fed the Amnesia a further 220ml as she appears to be dying and so Im thinking this might "flush" any residual build up if that's the issue. I got 80ml runoff (36%). Friday 12th March 18:00 I fed the Amnesia 200ml of late bloom nutes which produced 110ml runoff (55%). [26°C/48%] DAY 76 ----------- Saturday 13th March 12:00 I fed the Amnesia 600ml of rainwater at a pH of 6.2 in an effort to flush her as shes fading for some reason. I collected 400ml runoff (67%). [26°C/42%] Saturday 13th March 19:00 I fed the Amnesia a further 300ml of rain water at a pH of 5.8 which produced 100ml runoff (33%). [26°C/48%] Saturday 13th March 21:30 I fed the Amnesia a further 300ml of rain water at a pH of 5.8 in an effort to flush the medium. [26°C/48%] DAY 77 ----------- Sunday 14th March 11:00 I fed the Amnesia another 600ml of rainwater in an effort to flush her. She's draining extremely slow and so I think there is a build up of residue, possibly caused by the molasses. I collected 500ml runoff (84%)...I think she may be dying? Fuck. [26°C/42%] I made 15L of late bloom nutes with rainwater and molasses. 5L at 5.8, 5L at 6.0, and 5L at 6.2. Sunday 14th March 16:00 I fed the Amnesia another 300ml of rainwater. Sunday 14th March 18:30 I fed the Amnesia a further 200ml of rain water at a pH of 5.8 which produced 200ml runoff (100%). [26°C/48%] Sunday 14th March 20:30 I fed the Amnesia a further 200ml rainwater which produced 180ml runoff (90%). DAY 78 ----------- Monday 15th March 11:00 I fed the Amnesia 300ml of late bloom nutes which produced 180ml runoff (60%). She's draining better now and should be flushed enough. [26°C/42%] I made 5L of late bloom nutes with rainwater and molasses at a pH of 6.3. Monday 15th March 18:00 I fed the Amnesia a further 300ml of late bloom nutes, though at 150ml a time, 2hours apart. I collected roughly 100ml runoff each time (66%). [26°C/51%]

Die Pflanze gedeiht. Ich bin überrascht, wie viele Blüten sie produziert hat. Die Luftfeuchtigkeit ist morgens sehr hoch aber bislang sehe ich keine Fäulnisanzeichen. Wahrscheinlich liegen wir noch etwas weg vom Taupunkt. Wasser + Ackerschachtelhalm.

Hello Growdiaries 🌱, sorry for the lack of updates since the switch to flower – work kept me super stressed and I just couldn’t find the time. The ladies (2× Frosted Guava & 1× White Raspberry Truffle) are now in week 8 of flower and doing well overall. I’ll probably harvest sometime next week. Since ~5 days I’ve stopped feeding nutrients, just giving plain water. Tomorrow will be the last watering, and then I plan to turn off the lights next Tuesday and harvest on Wednesday/Thursday. Both Frosted Guavas are looking beautiful – one of them even showing a bit of purple. The plant on the right struggled a bit during flower, but the other one is stacking some gorgeous rock-hard buds. The White Raspberry Truffle is also looking very nice and frosty. I’m planning to run both strains again for my next grow. Once I harvest there will be another update, and after drying & curing I’ll post a final update with a smoke report. Happy growing everyone ✌️

Had a great week. These babies are still stretching quite a bit and I see pistils everywhere. The next couple of weeks should show some actual nuggies popping up.

BUENOS DÍAS familia , ya es viernes y toca actualizar semana. Las lemon kush empiezan apestar, entramos en la recta final, veremos cómo engordan estas últimas semanas. Hemos bajado la humedad hasta 45% y la temperatura bajo algo también, lo cual tampoco es malo. Aplicaremos algo de PK en polvo para endurecer las flores estas ultimas semanas. Os dejo una serie de fotos y vídeos para que contempléis la evolución de las flores.

I’m happy with her canopy she’s almost like a table made of leafs. Gonna leave her to stretch the bud sites for me hopefully she will, this plant is definitely sensitive to light as I’ve had the P1000 on 80% since week 2 till now. D37 Had to raise a 100 watt led by 1.5 inches because of light bleaching.. it now sits 15 inches from the canopy but I can’t believe how sensitive this plant is to light. I hope she will fill out nicely 🤞🏼
