Eternity Grow Cup - Week 9 Veg Update We are stepping into Week 9 of vegetation, and things are getting exciting! The plants are thriving—compact, bushy, and growing beautifully. This week, we introduced a SCROG (Screen of Green) net, an essential tool for maximizing yield and optimizing plant structure. Let’s dive deep into the why and how of scrogging: Why Install a SCROG Net Now? Maximizes Light Exposure: The net allows even light distribution across all branches, ensuring every bud site gets the optimal amount of light. Controls Plant Height: By guiding the branches through the net, we keep the canopy even and prevent excessive vertical growth. Enhances Airflow & Reduces Mold Risks: Spreading the plant out increases air circulation, reducing humidity pockets and minimizing risks of mold and pests. Increases Yield: More bud sites exposed to light mean higher-quality flowers and greater overall production. For now, we’re still not using the under-canopy lights, though they will come into play soon. The ICL 300 is positioned strategically, and we will likely move them around as needed later. For now, the focus is on structuring the plants and ensuring they fill out the available space properly. Optimizing Airflow - The Vortex Effect Air circulation is crucial for plant health, and this week, we’ve optimized airflow by positioning the fans to create a vortex effect: Fan Positioning: Each fan is placed at the tent corners, pointing in different directions, ensuring dynamic airflow instead of direct wind hitting the plants. Benefits of a Vortex System: Reduces hot spots and evenly distributes CO₂. Strengthens stems by creating a natural resistance. Prevents stagnant air, reducing mold and pest risks. The extraction system is powered by an AeroFan, connected to the AeroFan Smart Remote FRC1, currently running at 60% speed. This setup efficiently manages humidity and temperature while maintaining optimal air exchange. Current Environmental Conditions & Feeding For now, we’re maintaining the same water schedule and nutrient regimen. The environmental conditions remain stable: Temperature: Holding steady at ideal growth levels. Relative Humidity: Balanced to encourage healthy transpiration. PPFD (Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density): Kept at optimal levels to support vigorous vegetative growth. CO₂ Levels: Elevated but within safe limits, promoting faster growth. The plants are filling the space beautifully, but we know that the flip to flower is approaching soon! The next phase will depend on how fast they continue to spread, and adjustments will be made accordingly. Closing Thoughts & What’s Next? This week was all about structural optimization—ensuring proper airflow, training the plants with the SCROG net, and keeping everything in balance before the transition to flower. The upcoming weeks will be crucial, as we fine-tune the environment, possibly introduce the under-canopy lighting, and prepare for the flowering stage.

This girl is just huge, buds everywhere, fat tops and lots of them. She is really starting to fill out and is super top heavy. I don't even try to take her out the tent now. Her aroma is insane, that typical haze smell, with a gas undertone. Super sticky and developing lovely sugar. Over half way now. Can't wait to get to the finish line!

Nearly there........

Today is Day 50 !! We have started flower an they are just looking amazing! We have switched up the nutrients for flower, instead of 1 tsp bloom and 3 tsp of veg , we just swap 3 tsp of bloom and 1 tsp of veg !! Can’t wait to see what these laddies do this week!!

.

December 8 2018 day 73 from seed light burn but still going good

This week I carry on feed her 5ml bloom 2.5 ml big bud next Week I flush her for 2 week so no much to go Today day 97 and I done last feeding with nutrient now will flush her around 10 days then 2 days darkness then chop her down bud it's not big nut they very heavy and dense hop she give me good yield after long time

🌱Day 64.💚 🌱Day 66.💚 🌱Day 68.💚 🌱Day 70. Hot reason why in UK most grow tent heat up, my grow tent temperature reach already 36 degrees. O lalaaa…I will get experience…😆💚

TROPICANA COOKIES FF / FASTBUDS This week she was harvested her buds are frosty looking dense nugs that smell of sweet goodness 😍 she made some purple buds and she had some green buds she didn't have any issues this grow stayed in veg until I flipped the light 12/12 only real thing to watch out for is when she's stretching she'll get tall on you quickly. She's a plant you want keep in the rotation!! Stay Growing!! THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY AND TAKING A LOOK!! THANK YOU FASTBUDS!! TROPICANA COOKIES FF/ FASTBUDS

This week the Ams supreme has come along fine, she is as low as i can get her and has probably finished stretching, i had hoped she may have stretched a bit more then she has. All 4 strains in the tent are quite close in development still. Notes Day 50 manually feed this weeks nutes Day 51 nothing Day 52 nothing Day 53 autofeed water. Day 54 nothing Day 55 autofeed this weeks nutes Day 56 big defoliation. 456 ppfd, 29.5 DLi. Back in a week Take it easy.

Fastbuds Banana purple punch and Gorilla Cookies are looking great in early veg. Started a second seed of the strawberry banana and she finally popped up so now it’s just a week behind the others,but looking good hopefully will see some real growth in the next week!

Week 11 and the buds are getting bigger. The tent still has a softer smell to it, not overwhelming at all. The buds are growing but still look like they need to plump. Tons of white hairs and frost developing. I’m still feeding nuts since it looks like it has some time still.

Start of Week 9, I noticed some bulking up on the top cola. I've just been taking pictures of the Top cola because it's just easier to see differences in growth. I rotate the pot a lot so it's hard to get the same angle to show differences this late in flower for me without it just being a pain in the butt. We're still praying for the end of flower growth spurt. :P

11/13 all the clones are doing great. These will be ready in a couple of weeks. I have three more that I flipped to flower and I’m running them at 76 was the three plants it was an accident but they seem to be responding just fine at that so I’m gonna try and maybe not have the lights up so high bleached out the leaves on my other plants these lights are incredibly bright, and I I run them to high of wattage but I love these they’re the best I’ve ever had 11/15 Wednesday I took some samples from blackjack I think earlier in the week and I had them in the jar and I took some pictures of them. The resin is incredible. I’ve never had results like this. This is really nice. I gave her water today with light nutrients, and about 3 1/2 mL of the Boombastic only half a gallon each I’m smoking a sample that I took off and put in a jar and dried and wow it’s so pretty see all the resin I took pictures and the video of that pretty good 11/18 Saturday the tops are beginning to be so heavy. They’re falling over and I can’t keep them standing up. It’s the most frustrating but the best problem to have really good stuff. 11/19 I had a lot of trouble standing them up yesterday I stand one up another one would fall down. I felt like they were playing a practical joke on me. I look like the three fucking stooges doing it. I was so pissed off. It must’ve been hilarious. They’re doing really good today. Nobody’s falling down, I don’t know how much longer I can keep them growing but wow they’re really something I have three other clones that just switched over to flower and I have three of them that are still in veg so I’m gonna have these for quite a long time I’m probably gonna take clones off of clones off of clones it’s hard to let go when you’ve grown the same plant this long they grow a little taller than I’d like but I have a really nice smoke. It doesn’t make me too hungry. It’s good for nausea but I can still function around the house and get everything done. I have to fast a lot so I don’t get sick and this helps that even though I’m hungry it helps with the discomfort of not being able to eat. I gave early flower nutrients to the three blackjacks in early flower. I just flipped them this week I added a half a milliliter of the Bloombastic just to get her used to it. I went pretty light on the nutrients I introduced the nectar from General hydroponics a sweetener I put that in there I used 5 mL of that, it said to use 10 no way

In the end she went longer than expected but that's cool 😎 super dense buds . I really enjoyed this strain. Very nice smoke. Gromie's use the promo code GROWEED for a 15% discount on any Fast Buds purchase.

FastBuds White Widow!! One of my first ever grows was a White Widow from another breeder. She was a lovely plant. Lets see what the FastBuds version is like 😎 Planted in her forever home 20L airpot.

all nutrients are in ger section. so i would say this should be the last few days befor going into flower phase. cant wait to see the coulour change on the leaves.

11/30 - 12/5: The bigger Zenzations has the beginnings of a small apex flower. Both Zenzations continue to look great, but the big story is the turn around the Black Jacks have made. They've tripled in height in 2 weeks and have nice, long lower branching. Both Gorilla Girls are stretching well now and have huge fan leaves, so I think they've still got some stretching to do. I dialed back the lights to 13 hours of daylight on the 4th. 12/6: I fed them today.

It down half the closet sherbet autos half left got about 2-3 weeks on them. Any questions feel free to ask n comment 🤙
