One gal had a satellite branch shoot up to 67inches, so I opted for some HST to keep her from touching the LEDs, the next day she was perked back up at the light! Others seem to be fine and done stretching! (one is at about 7'' from lamp - if she looks like she's starting to burn I'll train her down as well) No more silica! Runt has a couple satellite branches at 40'' - stretched more than I expected her to! ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me! Thanks for stopping by growmies! 🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏

Eternity Grow Cup - Week 1 Flower Report Welcome to the first week of flower in the Eternity Grow Cup! This is a crucial stage in the cycle, and we’ve made some important moves to set the girls up for success. Let’s dive into all the details and talk about the key elements shaping this transition. 48 Hours Dark Period & Transition to Flower Before flipping to flower, we implemented a 48-hour dark period. In my experience, this technique helps the plants transition more smoothly and accelerates their hormonal shift into flowering. It’s a method that has consistently worked well for me, and I encourage growers to explore different approaches to find what best suits their setup. The Power of Reds - Far Red & Deep Red As part of this transition, we have introduced far red and deep red lighting. These are turned on 15 minutes before the main whites and stay on for 15 minutes after. The reason? This simulates the natural sunrise and sunset effect, which helps optimize the flowering response and enhances overall plant development. The red spectrum plays a crucial role in promoting stretch and enhancing bud formation early on. Light Schedule - 11/13 Cycle From the start of flower, we are running an 11 hours light / 13 hours dark schedule. Over the years, I’ve found this lighting strategy beneficial in inducing faster flower onset, increasing terpene production, and ultimately producing better-quality fruits. This is something I personally swear by, but as always, I encourage others to experiment and see what works best for their unique environments. Spending Time with the Girls One of my favorite parts of the grow is spending time with the plants, enjoying some good medicine, and simply being present in the garden. The connection we have with our plants is invaluable, and I believe they truly respond to the energy we bring. It’s a labor of love, and every moment spent with them contributes to their health and vitality. Monitoring with TrolMaster TM + App All data is being closely monitored using the TrolMaster TM + app, and I highly encourage everyone to check it out. Seeing all the details, tracking trends, and adjusting conditions accordingly is a game-changer. If you love data as much as I do, this is definitely something worth exploring. Gear Spotlight - AeroFan Extraction Let’s talk about one of the essential pieces of gear in this setup: the AeroFan Extraction System. This exhaust fan is an absolute beast, keeping the environment perfectly dialed in while looking sleek mounted on the wall. A good extraction system is key to maintaining ideal airflow, temperature, and humidity control, and this one has been doing an incredible job. Current Environmental & Nutrient Data Water pH: 6.0 Water EC: 1.36 Water Temperature: 16°C (a bit low, will be adjusting soon) Soil EC: 1.44 Soil Temperature: 20°C (decent but could be slightly higher) Maintaining the right balance of temperature, pH, and EC is essential for a successful flowering phase, so I’ll be keeping a close eye on these numbers and making any necessary adjustments as we progress. Shoutouts & Community Love A huge thank you to Plagron, Zamnesia, and Grow Diaries for making the Eternity Grow Cup possible!

Some rainy days and some sunny days this week. Warm temperature but not too hot. I started to look at the trichomes and they begin to turn cloudy. Some big leaves start to turn yellow.

11.01. day 105 Blüte 63 . Chop. Schwere Arme voller Knospen. Definitiv. Mit dem Gewicht bin ich schonmal zufrieden. Eine Woche trocknen, dann gibt's den Ernte-Bericht. Mit smoke Review. Zur Ernte selbst: Yep, alles in Ordnung. Überraschend war sie gar nicht crispy. Na klar ein paar Blätter, aber der Rest und vor allem die Knospen waren aber schön saftig. Harzig nicht sehr klebend, denn diese Trichome sind so hart, das sie abbrechen. Ob das gut ist? Ja. Begründung: da ist weniger Wasser, mehr Harz dein. Nur frisches Harz klebt. Schaut euch nen Baum an. Altes Harz kann Mann heraus schlagen, fast so hart wie Glas. Bei frischen kleben die Finger. Macht's trotzdem, das riecht super. Aber nicht an den Klamotten abwischen. Die sind sonst ruiniert. Zum Geruch: Äh überraschenderweise ziemlich zurückhaltend, aber ich habe auch keine der Knospen geöffnet. Wahrscheinlich wird der Geruch von diesen Trichomen, die sehr eng beieinander sitzen eingeschlossen. Meine Tendenz liegt ohne Rauchbericht bei 9 Punkten. Pflanze gut, Buds gut, Jetzt noch Geschmack... 12.01. Oh, das hatte ich vergessen zu erwähnen. Dieser Grow lief unter verschärften Bedingungen. Stealth mit wenig Frischluft. Sie hat eine Invasion von Spinnmilben abgewehrt, durch ne andere Pflanze übertragen. Later: ich habe ne Knospe geknackt. Erst dran gerieben. Es roch nach Heu. Ungläubig und etwas Enttäuscht knackte ich ne Knospe. Puff, wie in einer Wolke aus Duft. Oh, das Riecht aber stark, und gut. Das habe ich nicht erwartet nach dem äußeren Geruch. Definitiv keine Geruchs Stealth Sorte. Eher HALLO NACHBARN MEIN NAME IST CANDY RAIN. OH😳 So heftig? Ja. Der Geruch ist schwerlich zu beschreiben. Ungefähr so: erdig mentholig mit keine Ahnung gelato Haschisch Aromen? Nicht unangenehm aber überraschend stark und ausgeprägt. Das habe ich so nicht erwartet. Aber wer lesen kann, es folgt ein original Auszug Wenn Du Cannabis mit köstlich fruchtigen Düften und Aromen sowie einem ordentlichen THC-Kick magst, hast Du mit Candy Rain einen neuen Favoriten gefunden. So ist es. 13.11. Was ich total gut finde, Es machen die ja Grad mehrere. Alle die Toll geworden sind sehen sich sehr ähnlich. Wie eineiige Zwillinge. Und von denen sieht meine Pflanze am härtesten rann genommen aus. ( Mann könnte auch sagen beschissen gepflegt sieht sie aus, aber das stimmt nicht. Die wollte einfach Krass sein. ) Ne Chance aufs gewinnen habe ich nur wenn die anderen Knospen nicht beim (harte Schale) knacken plötzlich in einer ziemlich heftigen Duft Wolke hängen. Wie ne Nebelgranate bei aktuellen shootern ( Games ). ( Kurz überleg ) ne eher wie ne flashbang. Puff, Alles riecht. Und ich habe noch nicht getestet. Das sind nur Impressionen, von ihr als Grower. ( Nein Leute ihr merkt es vielleicht, ich bin von diesem "Puff" schwer beeindruckt. Hatte ich noch nie. Ist heftig gewesen. Das Gegenteil von Dezent. Ich höre jetzt auf zu schreiben, warte auf das trocknen und melde mich dann mit Photos und nem Rauchbericht zurück) 17.01. Pre smoke Impressionen. 1. Nochmal machen, ansetzen 2. Nix machen beim smoken. 3. Ich bin so Fett das ich gerade ein Schlachtschiff im Hafen nicht finden würde. 4. 😍👍🤗😀😄😃😀 5. Der Geschmack ist jetzt schon vollmundig zitronig würzig lecker. 6.Ein Recht starker ( Nene, doch ), und das ist mir ganz wichtig "Angenehmer Turn". Voller Enthusiasmus machst du Dinge. Im Sitzen. Kein couch lock, eher so entspannend. Rauchst du mehr, oder größer werden die Augen immer kleiner. Dein Atem wird ruhiger. Wie eine Sanfte Brise kommt die Müdigkeit. Atmest du sie ein, begrüßt du sie sogar, Kommt ein süßer Schlaf. Aber Sanft fragt er. .. Einmal schütteln wie ein Hund, bumm bist du wach, und merkst, Oh doch couch Lock. Ähem aber nur bei großen . Bei normalem Konsum einfach nur Nett. Indica lastig und interessant. 7. Langer angenehmer Turn. 8. Jetzt bekomme ich Hunger. 9. Nicht online zocken. Gar nichts. Bei Shootern geht das aim fail. Bei Strategie Spielen macht Mann plötzlich soo doofe Fehler. Selbst bei Wow ( World of warships ) vergisst Mann plötzlich das vor einem nen Gegner ist. Nen SCHXXXX DICKES SCHLACHTSCHIFF. Übersehen auf einmal. ..... Nen Schlachtschiff.... Vergessen. Kurz darauf schaute ich auf mein versinkendes Schiff.... 10. Ich hoffe der Rauchbericht ist in Ordnung. Das sind meine Impressionen von CANDY RAIN. Macht Spaß 18.01. Im Trocknungszelt : noch nicht ganz trocken, aber süß am Riechen 😍..

9.2.25: The plants had a good watering, they're all still drinking a lot. Which is great, as that means growth, which, at this stage, we desperately need! I went ahead and gave all the plants a thorough watering each with: 2ltrs of dechlorinated water, PH'd to 6.5 with:- ♡ 4ml of Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster ♡ 4ml of Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag amino acids ♡ 4ml Seaweed extract liquid I don't know how this scrog net is going to work out. I think the squares are too big. It's elasticated, which I like. However, I'm extremely cautious with watering and moving the net. It's only a matter of time before I break more branches. It's such a hassle with it in there, honestly. I can't get in the tent properly to even check the weight of pots, as it's all weaved through, and again, I will snap branches. I did have a free net with the tent, which I think was smaller squares. I think I will use some other training next run. It's really not my kind of setup. I'm too interested in moving things and inspecting the plants constantly. The net is driving me up the wall. 😣 I'm considering removing it and trying something else, but it's also a bit too late for oldest plants.9.2.25: Gave the plants another good soak. I used 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4. It contained the following nutrients; ♡ 4ml of Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster ♡ 4ml of Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag amino acids ♡ 4ml Seaweed extract liquid ♡ 0.5g of Ecothrive Biosys. The plants are undergoing explosive growth at this stage, which I'm thrilled by! Purple Lemonade is turning purplish hues. Pink Mist has so many bud sites and is looking very healthy. Do-sì-dos is growing vigorously and looking promising, especially considering all my unfortunate mishaps! 😅 Watermelon also has considerable growth. However, my training has made a mess out of the structure. Which I consider another valuable take away. Bubble

I fed the plant with Bio PK for the last time this week. From now on I will just water the plant without adding any nutrients. The buds are starting to swell up and they are getting more frost. The aroma is getting more intense from day to day.

The plant was easy to grow overall .. it grew fast and a little on the tall side which had me nervous but I was able to raise the lights up just enough to finish, so it all worked out in the end. buds came out hard and frosty no complaints . This was a freebie seed too! didn’t expect it to come out as fire as it did man was i wrong. Straight fire 🔥 Ran into root rot in the beginning of veg but the great white and hydroguard saved my ass.🙏

Another week has flown by! The girls are doing great, cruise control this week as I have just been monitoring RH and temps. Trying to keep them as low as possible, I’ve been getting as low as 74 during the day and 68 at night. I finally took a look a look at the trichomes with my jewellers loop, lots of cloudy, and a few amber around the leaves and top colas, but still lot’s of clear trichomes. I’ve ordered myself a wireless/usb digital microscope to assist with the process, and looks like it will be here just in time to determine harvest day. 😎🎄 I started by eliminating the nutrients at the beginning of the week. I typically allow for 3-4 pure water feeds before I harvest, and at the rate they have been drinking, this should be enough to get through the 7-12 days they have before harvest. I don’t flush, but rather “rinse” with normal water amounts, allowing the plant to use up the remaining nutrients in the soil. This also allows me to recover most of the soil from my grows and reuse ♻️ with other soil mix. There has been great debate and a great deal of bro science out there for many years, but the recent studies suggest there is no difference in end result when it comes to flushing or using nutrients right until the end, if a proper dry and cure is performed. What do you think? What do you prefer to do? Thanks for reading this far, leave me a comment with your preferred method 👊🇨🇦❤️

Week 6, finally it start to look like some Ganja ! Yeah man ! Jah bless ! Ain’t no bambacla soja or thin mint ! Plants are in big pots now, they are thriving nicely, the leaves are glowing like uranium. They won’t need anything this week, I will just lift the pots to check their weight and will keep the light at the right distance. I might have to switch on the second 600w HID and start to dispatch them to give them some more space to grow... I will see in a couple days. Adding a lil video to share the goodness of enjoying looking cannabis leaves moving with the airflow, peace and love for all ✌️ [Day 40] Water 💦 Acapulco Bad Azz Tangerine BBG TH , SS Remo Cookies J.H (P.S: I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as, Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control 🐞) This diary is updated daily ☝️

Proof that you can flower decent at high temp and humidity. With an ac in another room I was able to drop temp to 26 and rh to 58 for last 2-3 weeks.

La planta aguantó bastante bien todos mis fallos, finalmente no fue todo lo productiva que me habría gustado. Pero teniendo en cuenta todo lo que hice mal creo que puedo darme por satisfecho. Personalmente creo que debería haberla dejado crecer una semana más. Ya tengo todo preparado para mi segundo cultivo, en el cual incluiré muchas novedades (cepas, iluminación, nutrientes, etc). Esta vez detallaré mucho más todo el seguimiento del cultivo. Nos vemos pronto! 👽

LST an einer Critical Crush angewendet. Ein paar Blätter Geld/leichte Nekrose zwecks Nährstoffmangel. Zum ersten mal Gedüngt (Hesi) Bloom. Beim nächsten mal eher düngen :D Drähte für LST entfernt da lt. Breeder/Community zu spät. Pflanzen stehen nun auf dem "Balkon"
