originally 60g all in all dry before final trim - 49g trimmed dense and icy buds really pack a punch with that sweet berry aroma that'll hit you in the face and the effects are good for me too. Uplifting energy while smoking that with a deep relaxation right after

Was a great week overall in the tent. The girls are looking great at this point. They get water every day or two. I'm supposed water daily but you know how busy life is. So hoping to install the self watering pots after lollipopping and defoliating later this week. My issue is with my light schedule due to my timer. The timer seems to be off and I'm worried that's gonna mess up the girls. I say this cause the light schedule doesn't match day after day. Its my timer and gonna have to replace that one with a digital one.

Hello grow ๐ŸŒŽ! Finally seeing signs of flowering beginning. (Branches alternating, calxes, pistils, etc.) I cut the girls' dose of gro pro which is full of N, way down amd introduced monster bloom and a small dose of nirvana. Was going to tie down branches but realized that it would make draining their buckets near impossible. So I decided to use bamboo sticks to "position" branches in spots of light and out of tge way of others.

๐ŸŒพ Harvest Day โ€” The Grand Finale of the Eternity Grow Cup ๐ŸŒพ Days 72โ€“73 | Trimmed on May 25 | Posted May 27 What a journey this has been โ€” and what a finish. These five incredible Runtz phenos have now completed their cycle, and today, we celebrate the final stage of their flowering life: the Harvest. We sent the girls into darkness on Day 70, allowing them a full 48+ hours of rest and reset. The dark period was just a bit longer, truth be told, because timeโ€ฆ it flows as it must. This extended dark time helps increase resin production, allowing the trichomes to mature just that final bit more. On Days 72 and 73, we harvested them with care and reverence. Each plant was hung upside down, whole, in a perfectly controlled 60% humidity environment for 13 full days. Before hanging, we gently removed only the fan leaves, leaving all trichome-rich sugar leaves in place โ€” a natural armor for the delicate resin glands during drying. Why do we do this? Because those sugar leaves help protect the essential oils and terpenes, preserving potency, flavor, and aroma for the smoothest experience later on. ๐ŸŒฟ The Dry Room & The Trichome Guardians Throughout the drying, we used a moisture meter to monitor the moisture content in the stems. Once it dropped to around 12โ€“13%, we knew it was time. This tool is a simple but game-changing ally in ensuring a perfect dry โ€” not too fast, not too slow. We then trimmed everything by hand over a 6.5-hour focused session. Armed with trim bins and good energy, we collected an abundance of glistening trichome heads in the process โ€” a golden bonus from these resin-packed beauties. The leaves themselves told a story: deep purples, near-black shades, autumn fades and metallic tones โ€” just stunning. Each girl was trimmed in order: #5 โ†’ #4 โ†’ #3 โ†’ #2 โ†’ #1, revealing dense, chunky buds all the way from top to bottom. Not a single pop-corn bud among them โ€” only rock-solid nugs, heavyweight champions in every sense. ๐Ÿ“ฆ Cure Begins โ€“ Grove Bags & Glass Jars Once trimmed, the buds were tucked carefully into Grove Bags and glass jars, each stabilized at around 61% RH. The Grove Bags handle the microclimate beautifully, keeping humidity between 58โ€“61%, perfect for preserving all that hard-earned quality. Weโ€™re now opening the jars daily, monitoring aroma and feel. This part of the process โ€” the cure โ€” is where the soul of the flower truly comes to life. โ˜€๏ธ UV, Reds & The Perfect Run Part of what made this run so special was the precision in light spectrum. 40% whites, full reds, UV and IR, and the girls responded like royalty. The UV pushed trichome development to the max. The deep reds gave us thickness, color, and weight. All of it under ThinkGrow Model Ones powered through the Trolmaster ecosystem โ€” everything syncing in harmony. This run was stable, lush, expressive โ€” a growerโ€™s dream. To my eyes, this was a perfect run. โš–๏ธ Final Yield: 1,302 Grams (1.3 kg) In a 4x4 tent โ€” thatโ€™s just 1.2m x 1.2m for metric friends โ€” we pulled in 1,302 grams of flower, not even counting the buds that were taken for filming, photos, or โ€œquality control testingโ€ along the way. ๐Ÿ˜‰ Dense. Loud. Sticky. Resinous. ๐ŸŒฟ The Hidden Half: A Tribute to the Roots In every grow, thereโ€™s a part we donโ€™t always see โ€” a part that lives underground, quietly holding everything together. The roots. And this time, I wanted to honor them too. When we unpotted the plants after harvest, we were met with massive, dense root systems, completely filling the Autopot trays. These roots were vibrant, white and healthy, looking like noodles in a thick herbal soup โ€” a true sign of vitality. The Autopots system, combined with the Aptus Holland Clean Program and Plagron Green Sensation, made sure they had the perfect environment to expand, absorb, and thrive. The PRO-MIX soil was the perfect foundation โ€” light, fluffy, with excellent aeration. It all worked in harmony. After unpotting, I carefully washed every root system, removing all soil to prepare them for the next chapter of their story. Now, theyโ€™re hanging and drying โ€” and will be left to cure for at least one month, possibly more, in a dry, dark, and well-ventilated space. But why keep the roots? Because cannabis roots hold ancient value โ€” both medicinal and ritualistic. Though they donโ€™t contain cannabinoids like THC or CBD, they are rich in alkaloids, triterpenoids, sterols, and other therapeutic compounds that can be anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antifungal, and calming. Medicinal Benefits of Cannabis Roots: โ€ข Friedelin โ€“ known for liver protection and anti-inflammatory effects โ€ข Pentacyclic triterpenoids โ€“ believed to support immune and anti-tumor functions โ€ข Alkaloids โ€“ some studies suggest pain-relief and muscle-soothing properties โ€ข High levels of fiber and tannins โ€“ excellent for digestive and skin applications ๐Ÿต Root Medicine โ€” Ways to Use Dried Roots: Once fully dried (they should snap like twigs, not bend), they can be gently crushed, powdered, or infused: ๐ŸŒฟ Cannabis Root Tea Soothing & Detoxifying โ€ข 1 tablespoon of dried, ground roots โ€ข 3 cups of filtered water โ€ข Simmer gently (do not boil) for 20โ€“30 minutes โ€ข Add a bit of ginger or lemon for taste โ€ข Sip warm, especially good for menstrual discomfort, inflammation, and general relaxation ๐Ÿฒ Healing Root Soup Base Brothy & Nourishing โ€ข Add a handful of dried roots into a veggie broth or bone broth โ€ข Simmer for 2+ hours โ€ข Strain before serving โ€ข This adds a subtle earthy tone and allows the healing properties to infuse your meal Topical Root Cream or Balm Great for sore muscles or irritated skin โ€ข Infuse roots in olive oil or coconut oil (low heat, 2โ€“3 hours) โ€ข Strain and mix with beeswax to form a balm โ€ข Add essential oils like lavender or eucalyptus โ€ข Apply to temples, joints, or sore areas ๐Ÿ› Root Soak Bath Perfect for grounding and full-body relief โ€ข Bundle dried roots in muslin or cheesecloth โ€ข Steep in hot bathwater for 15 minutes before entering โ€ข Let the soak draw out toxins and ease tension โธป The roots are more than just the anchor of the plant. They are its memory, its foundation, its quiet miracle. By using them, we honor the entire lifecycle โ€” nothing is wasted, and everything has a purpose. This part of the process is new for many growers, and I truly encourage anyone reading this to try saving and reusing the roots. Dry them, process them gently, and let them offer you one final gift. Much love to Aptus Holland, Plagron, Autopots, and PRO-MIX โ€” this wouldnโ€™t have been possible without their harmony working underground while the beauty bloomed above. ๐ŸŒฑ The Gift That Keeps Giving: Reusing the Soil As we say goodbye to one incredible season, we begin quietly preparing for the next. But not everything gets thrown away. In this garden, nothing is wasted. Just like the roots, the soil gets another life. After each harvest, I carefully remove the remaining roots and break up the soil. I inspect it, rejuvenate it with compost and beneficial microbes when needed, and most importantly, I repurpose it โ€” giving it a second life in my outdoor veggie garden. Why do I do it? Because this soil has already done something extraordinary. It has supported life, held moisture, breathed air, balanced nutrients, and fed plants that became medicine. Itโ€™s not just dirt โ€” itโ€™s a living ecosystem. And to throw it away would be to ignore its potential. In my veggie garden, this recycled soil now nurtures cucumbers, tomatoes, courgettes, and so many other little miracles waiting to unfold. Itโ€™s a beautiful way of continuing the cycle, taking all the energy and intention that was once used to grow cannabis and transferring it into growing food. ๐ŸŒž๐Ÿ…๐Ÿฅ’ ๐ŸŒพ The Benefits of Reusing Soil: โ€ข Sustainability โ€” less waste, less environmental impact โ€ข Cost-effective โ€” no need to constantly buy fresh medium โ€ข Soil memory โ€” rich in organic material, microbial life, and structure โ€ข Nutrient potential โ€” amended soil still holds value for many plants โ€ข A deeper connection โ€” a way to honor the entire cycle of growth When we reuse our soil, weโ€™re not just being resourceful โ€” weโ€™re believing in tomorrow. Weโ€™re trusting that what weโ€™ve built can be rebuilt. That what has been used can become useful again. That from what seems like an ending, something new can always emerge. And maybe thatโ€™s the most powerful message of all in this journey: Planting is believing in tomorrow. ๐ŸŒ๐ŸŒฑ Every seed in the ground is a little act of faith. So as this season comes to a close, the first tomatoes have been planted. The cucumbers are reaching for the sun. The courgettes are settling in. And the same soil that once gave us dense, resinous flowers is now feeding the vegetables that will grace the table. From harvest to hope โ€” the cycle continues. And itโ€™s beautiful. ๐ŸŽ‰ The Final Touches Fun fact: โ€ข Trimmed on May 25 โ€ข Photo shoot on May 26 โ€ข This report: May 27 โ€ข Dry Bud Exclusive Photo Set: Coming soon Stay tuned โ€” the next upload will be something special, just in time before the Eternity Grow Cup closes on May 31st. โธป ๐Ÿ’š Thank You To Zamnesia โ€” your genetics were nothing short of extraordinary.

One pheno already reeks of overripe banana and the other two bushes are slowly coming along with the same type of sweetness/muskiness!

This week has been such a gift! I have learned so much about proper care for a plant I had no idea how little I knew sitting down and observing these majestic trees produce such a potent flower has really humbled me. Premium cultivars strain has shown resilient and self sustaining easy to grow traits that it is hard to mess up. (Which Iโ€™ve done a few times lol) Notice the trichomes (I put the zoom lens on and got up in there so they could be better seen the bud itself is slathered in them ! This is going to be an amazing smoke! Also looking at the structure of the bud itโ€™s self it has volume very full bodied bracts with pistils throughout Itโ€™s just an all-around beautiful thing to observe

This Mystery seed grow #1 is very nearly finished! She will be taken down once I'm satisfied with the ratio of trichomes. I'm leaving this one a bit longer than I usually would, just to see the difference in effects of a later harvest. I do need the space in the tent, so I'm hoping it won't take too much longer. The leaves are losing all of their colour, and this is the first time I've had any "fade". I've had a lot of issues with what I believe is an excess of phosphorus. I had Phosphorus excess in this grow before, and I think that's what's happened again. I believe the Excess of Phosphorus has prevented the plant from being able to uptake Calcium, Magnesium and others. I have learned many lessons again, and plan to avoid these mistakes with my grows presently. 8.5.25: The plant was watered with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6. This may be the last watering before she's done. I added per litre; โ™ก 4ml Ecothrive Trace โ™ก 1/2 TSP Sea K(elp) PPM: 715 PH: 6.3. โ˜† Xpert Nutrients PH down, up to 1ml. โ˜† Ecothrive Neutralise 1 drop per litre from the 1ml pipette, which is attached. This is my dechlorinator. Thanks for following along with this plant ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’šโœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿƒ

Increased their food by a tad. Looked perfectly health raised to about 1900ppm. Again spider mites at it crawling up every leaf and creating a colony. I thought it was over until I sat there nearly every night finding the f*****s and rubbing the leaves with the spray. Defoliation was needed ASAP due to them stretching nicely. Started slowly from the bottom up. (repeated this process every 3-5 days.)
