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 !

This week has been soso with this little lady, accidentally fed her a and b from another feed I had and this has in turn stunted growth slightly so flushed the lady and now seeing new growth which is good, hofully this lady purks up over the next week or so 😀 thanks for looking and happy growing! Stay green! Peace and love.

Ive had some really hot days out here bur the airco really saved the day. I can keep my temps at 24c ish on average ranging from 22-27c. Cant really get the humidity down 50s but with loads of airflow I should be fine. Its ranging between 50-60% right now. Theyre smelling quite strong. I am venting out of a windows through a carbon filter and I smell nothing within my house or around. She is getting really frosty and one of them has purple hues in the buds. (Picture 1) One of them is a really odd phenotype (picture 2) with extremely long leaf stems. Which kinda is nice as the buds are looking to grow bigger down at the colas because of this. Hardly have to defoliate that one. Edit: decided to add some cal-mag at half stength to the watering. She was showing signs of a calcium deficiency. Ppm was in range aswel as the PH, so it must be calcium deficiency as it only shows at leaves closest to the light. Yellowing also started appearing on the top.

Going great so far for this girl. She’s progressing along quickly compared to the Cement Shoes growing beside her. Buds are already looking like there plumping up and most of the hairs are beginning to turn. Haven’t put the scope to her yet but It’s looking like she’s gonna finish earlier then I predicted. Gonna try and push it 8 weeks but all depends on my tricombs. Getting low on supply as well so that will also going to have to effect my decision unfortunately. But we will see, still got lots of honey left from the shake so gonna be a week of just dabing maybe to let this girl finish rite...lol Been keeping the nutrients pretty much the same this week as the last 2, trying to keep the reservoir around 750ppm and letting the ph swing from 5.8-6.2. She’s loving everything so far. Got a bit of heat stress showing on some larger leaves in the middle of the screen but light is maxed out higher wise and DLI is in the 65-75 range directly under the light at the canopy top but the light mover helps keeps things from heating up too much and gives them breaks like a cloud over the sun does. That’s it for this week, couple more to go! Cheers 💨

It was time for harvest. the video was taken outside - a little bit of real sunshine before the chop. With out a microscope it was particularly difficult working out the colours of the trichomes. So I guessed.

Quality strain but my buds could have been denser/chunkier, growers error, my first LST and I stressed her into flower too early

Es gibt nicht viel zu berichten. Ich habe sie einmal gegossen und ein Blatt abgezwickt. Der Duft im Garten ist sehr angenehm. Sie hat einen betörenden Duft, der im Gesamtbouquet der Gartenkräuter deutlich hervorsticht, sich aber so einfügt, dass es nicht auffällt. Ich liebe den Duft.

Start of 3rd week of flowering looking good. Pollinated last week with some feminized Black Jack Auto pollen. Will make for a nice feminized hybrid. Great 3rd week of flowering.

Healthy all around with the exception of one auto that got too frequent of a watering, resulting in N buildup. No worries, quick fix, and she'll have suffered little stress in the grand scheme of it all. Mothers looking vibrant af. First set of clones to be taken on May 1st, then a second set a few days later. Mothers will then be gifted to outdoor growers. One auto will be sprayed with colloidal silver next week to induce pollen for future auto crosses. Two mothers will be kept in a separate roof to get silver spray as well, the resulting pollen to cross with this years 2 phenos to create 2021 fems

Thanks for dropping by and welcome to another exciting update :P Finished manifolding and continuing LST. Transplanted into final 7 gallon pots on day 35. Mixed my own soil and let it cook for a month, slurry test is 6.4ph and 400ppm. Lots of work but I think the plants are liking it....so far so good, will be flipping soon. Stayed tuned and happy gardening 🌱

There is little to say yet. I recommend everyone to try this technique at least once. Maximize your harvest and increase your personal experience. If you want more serious proof of how mainlining works, take a look at the diaries of @Canamatoes, my teacher and mentor. More updates later, stay high🤘😁🦄

Hello everyone, Well its getting kinda packed in the greenhouse so all i have for you guys is a little video, See you guys next week... 🤘🤘🤙🤙

Tag 44: getoppt an 4 Zweigen. Tag 47: Ich gebe Alg a mic zur Hitzestress Behandlung ins gießwasser, die Pflanze ist an machen Stellen schon recht hell geworden, aber draußen wird es auch bald Kühler.

60% strength on nutes. LST this week to expose more Nodes!

Week 8 – Stabilization & Transition to Flowering 🌸 This week marked a real turning point: after last week’s heavy intervention, the plant finally regained its balance and clearly showed that it was ready to move forward again. No stress signs, no abnormalities — everything is back to normal. The substrate reset did exactly what it needed to. ⸻ 💧 Light Watering – Pure Water pH 6.2 To let the root zone fully stabilize, you chose the best possible approach: ✔️ only pH-adjusted water at 6.2 ✔️ no nutrients added This allowed the plant to: • maintain a stable root environment • avoid any risk of a new salt buildup • use the remaining nutrients in the substrate • recover natural and progressive nutrient uptake The behavior of the substrate and the post-flush reaction confirm that balance has been fully restored. ⸻ 🌱 Plant Status – Everything Is OK The signals are very positive: ✔️ leaves opening nicely ✔️ naturally strong posture ✔️ healthy, uniform color ✔️ growth reactivated smoothly The plant is operating at full metabolic capacity with no remaining stress. It was clearly ready for the next step. ⸻ 🌸 Switch to Flowering – Smooth Transition With a stable, balanced, and vigorous plant, the transition was made with confidence: 👉 Official switch to 12/12 this week. Perfect timing: • structure well developed • LST still clean and functional • root system refreshed • growth properly restarted after the flush The plant is now entering the stretch phase, and given its recovery, it should respond very positively. ⸻ 🔮 Next Steps In the coming days: • keep watering lightly • reintroduce nutrients gradually at the next watering • watch for the first pistils • let the stretch unfold naturally Flowering is starting on a clean, healthy foundation — exactly what you want for strong bud development. ⸻ ✅ Conclusion – Calm Week, Successful Transition After a difficult Week 7 but a perfectly executed rescue, Week 8 shows that everything is back under control: • the plant is 100% recovered • no signs of stress • watering with pH 6.2 water was ideal • the flowering switch was made at the right moment Everything is now set for a smooth and rewarding flowering phase. 🌱✨

Alot of low stress training this week trying to get the canopy ready for the scrog net. Topped all 3 gg4 plants. Started adding a bit more nutrients.

26.12.24: I have noticed light stress on my plants. I had moved the lights further away and increased the light intensity to 70%. Unfortunately that created some issues. Namely severe palour of the leaves. To try and rectify the situation, I've dimmed the lights to about 30%, staying at the same distance, about 30 inches away. I measured the par levels, after I did this. They should a reading of anywhere between 40 and 150, at the canopy of the plants. They are all different sizes. This seems to have improved the colouring on all plants. After this evenings watering, I will monitor recovery and increase lighting intensity again slowly. I am also using the light cycle of 21/3, so the plants have many hours more light to absorb, than for example 12/12 or 18/6. I am pleased with the progress, considering all of my mistakes! 29.12.24: So I finally gave LST a shot, it's probably a bit too late, however I really want to get the most of the triploid pheno, and I went a little crazy and LST'd all plants except 2, as they're too small. I did that late last night, this afternoon I was amazed to see the plants turn their leaves back to the light source. I'm glad I overcame my fear of trying it. I'm very excited to see them adapt and progress! 😁 there are videos above with before and after of my LST process. Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

Auto Opium has had a rough first week. The neem oil treatment was pretty tough on the seedling. She has started growing since sprayed. There is a mite issue and once I get the flowering plant out if the room I can treat them all. Eliminating anywhere for the pest to hid. So until then just making due the best we can for about a week.
