🌟 Eternity Grow Cup – Week 3 Veg Report 🌱 Another week in the books, legends, and though the temps aren’t perfect, our Runtz babies are growing strong! 💪 This week marks a pivotal moment as we get serious and start to push these girls toward greatness. 🌱 Growth Update: • The girls are officially showing their third pair of leaves, and while they’re growing slow due to cooler temps, they’re consistent. Standing at 6 cm tall, these beauties are ready for the next steps in their journey. • The yellow sticky traps have also done their job, catching some gnats—always a win for pest management! Let’s talk about the unexpected guests making an appearance in the grow room—gnats! These tiny critters can be a common nuisance for growers, especially in environments with moist soil. While they’re not devastating, they can be a sign that things need a bit of tweaking. Why the Yellow Stickers? Yellow sticky traps are like candy for gnats—they’re irresistibly attracted to the bright color, which mimics flowers. These traps are a simple, non-toxic way to monitor and control the population. It’s not just satisfying to see them stuck (though, let’s admit it, it kind of is)—it’s also a great way to keep tabs on how many are lurking around and take action if necessary. What Causes Gnats? Gnats love moist environments, and overwatering or humidity that’s a bit too high can create their perfect breeding ground. Using high-quality soil like Pro-Mix HP with Mycorrhizae helps, but these little critters can still sneak in. How to Handle Them? While yellow stickers are a great first line of defense, staying vigilant with watering practices is key. Letting the top layer of soil dry out between waterings can disrupt their life cycle. Plus, products like beneficial nematodes or soil conditioners can help keep them under control. They may be tiny, but we’ve got our eye on them! Let’s not let the gnats steal the show—our Runtz have got all the spotlight! 🌟 Nutrient Regimen: This week, we’re sticking with the Aptus Clean Mineral Line for Veg, a powerful combo designed for optimal plant health: • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L – This keeps the plants strong, aids in stress tolerance, and boosts nutrient uptake. • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L – Balances the water profile and improves nutrient delivery. • All-in-One Liquid: 1.25 ml/L – Provides a balanced mix of essential macro and micronutrients for sustained growth. 📌 Key Stats: • pH: 6.05 • EC: 1.0 • Temp: 18.3°C 🔧 Tech, Tools & Building the Dream Studio Behind the grow, I’ve been fine-tuning my workspace. Using just a piece of wood, carefully cut feet, and some imagination, I’ve elevated my monitors for better editing. It’s not fancy, but it works! 💻✨ For the grow, my trusted TrolMaster gear (from the Tent-X to the AMP-3) has been my go-to for precision. Every measure—pH, EC, temps—is logged and tracked to keep these plants thriving. 🌟 Exciting Milestones: 💚 Huge thank you to the community for helping me reach: • 500 YouTube Subscribers 🎥 – Weekly episodes are dropping, so make sure to tune in for detailed updates! • 4.5K Instagram Followers 📸 – Join the fun as we share the Runtz journey and so much more! 💨 Welcome, Ziggi Papers!

The week is progressing wonderfully, it's been 8 or 9 days since I flipped them and they have completed the transition and are really starting to stretch. CF#1 is 24 inches, CF#2 is 32 inches CF#3 is 25 inches and CF#4 is 27 inches. #2 by far has been the biggest and quickest developer of the 4. I wonder if the fact that it is directly under the CO2 bag?? I fed them 1.5 tsp of the g.h. flora series this week, called myself stepping it up a notch. The second feeding I fed them plain tap water p.h.'d to 6.6 ish. I upped the amount of water to 3 liters for one feeding (the one with the nutes) it created alot of run off, which the plant eventually sucked up. I was a bit surprised because I thought for sure a 10 gallon pot would take atleast 2 gallons of water or more to see runoff. In this case it appears a little over 2 liters until the first signs of runoff. This is the first grow where my plants have made it this far without showing nute burns at the tips, they seem to be loving my feeding cycle. I plan on adding another trellis net in about a week or two, once they stop stretching, I know from experience with this strain the buds are going to grow nice and dense and cause the branch to sag over without the extra support.

The second plant did not respond nearly as well to some drought stress tests. We use it for comparison. Consider this an experiment in stunted growth due to damage in early veg.

Well all these ladies had a major growth spurt. My lights are at the max height now so I hope they are done. Good news though the Gorilla zkittles and Red diesel are showing bud forming, so hopefully I can count on them to be done stretching now. Started them I defoliated pretty good on day 7 I started them on the rhino skin once I got something to keep it turning in my reservoir. I also top dressed 1/2 cup of compost mix and hit them with a light top feed of recharge. Looking forward to seeing these ladies pack on weight in the new few weeks.

Hi everyone 🤗. The last 5 women are nearing their end 😍. They will be harvested in the next 2-3 weeks. The rest of the ones that have already been harvested are currently fermenting 😍. The finished harvest pictures come when everyone is finished together 👍. This ends the last diary that was kept with several varieties. From now on only single strain diaries are coming, all individually ;-). I wish you a nice week, stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 🌱

23.02. Tag 62 So! Alle Probleme der letzten 2 Wochen sind erkannt und behoben. Ich hoffe die Ladies erholen sich in den nächsten Wochen wieder. 1.Problem: Die beiden vorderen habe ich leider übergossen. Lösung: Erde ersetzt, Problem gelöst. 2.Problem: Mein PH Messgerät ist defekt und ich habe die letzten 2 Wochen mit einem PH von 4.9 gegossen. Lösung: Neues PH Messgerät, aktuell bekommen sie seit zwei Tagen PH 6.8 damit der PH im Boden relativ schnell wieder steigt. 3. Problem: Gestern erst aufgefallen! Zeitschaltuhr defekt. Licht geht normalerweise von 12:00-16:00 Uhr aus. Eine Zeit in der ich selten vorm Zelt stehe. Licht läuft 24 Stunden durch. Seit wann? Keine Ahnung … Lösung: Neue Zeitschaltuhr installiert. ******************************************* Was sagt uns das? Super ärgerlich aber draus lernen und den nächsten grow meistern 💚💯💚 *******************************************

📅 Week 14 | Days 99–105 📅 🌼🌸🌺 Late Flowering Stage 🌼🌸🌺 Day 105 🌞 – Oreoz (Harvest in Sight) 🔸 Visuals: Oreoz is now strutting her stuff like a true queen on the red carpet. The buds are rock-solid, swollen to perfection, and absolutely drenched in a frosty coat of milky trichomes. A few amber heads have started to make their debut, giving us a sweet little wink that harvest is just around the corner. The fiery orange pistils have curled in and deepened in color, making the whole plant look like a masterpiece. 🔸 Aroma & Resin: The terpene profile is now in full swing—sweet and creamy with a subtle earthy twist. Touch her once and your fingers are instantly glued together from the insane resin production. She’s basically a sticky, fragrant work of art. 🔸 Climate: The temperature couldn't be worse...towards the end, of course, it will be almost 30 degrees for the next few days. Humidity has been tamed, sitting comfortably between 50–55%, keeping mold far, far away from those dense colas. VPD remains locked in at 1.4 – 1.6, letting the buds finish without a hint of stress. 🔸 Nutrients & Water: Overdrive week is in the books. From here on out it’s plain, pH-balanced water (EC ~0.5) to flush her through. She’s drinking noticeably less now—a sure sign she’s in her final act and drawing on her own reserves. 📈 Current Conditions 🌡️🔆 = 28°C 🌡️🌜 = 21°C 💨 VPD = 1.4 💨 RH = 55% 🔦 PPFD = 900 µmol (12/12) 🔦⌚ DLI = ~38 🛠️ Setup (unchanged) 💡 2 × Sanlight Evo 4-120 @ 90% ⛺ 120 × 120 × 180 cm 🍯 18 L pot 🌱 Bio-Bizz Light Mix 💊 Advanced Nutrients 💧 Tap water (EC 0.5)
