Don’t really have too many photos of week 5-6.

🌾 Harvest Day — The Grand Finale of the Eternity Grow Cup 🌾 Days 72–73 | Trimmed on May 25 | Posted May 27 What a journey this has been — 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 time… 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 — 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. 🌿 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 12–13%, we knew it was time. This tool is a simple but game-changing ally in ensuring a perfect dry — 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 — a golden bonus from these resin-packed beauties. The leaves themselves told a story: deep purples, near-black shades, autumn fades and metallic tones — just stunning. Each girl was trimmed in order: #5 → #4 → #3 → #2 → #1, revealing dense, chunky buds all the way from top to bottom. Not a single pop-corn bud among them — only rock-solid nugs, heavyweight champions in every sense. 📦 Cure Begins – 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 58–61%, perfect for preserving all that hard-earned quality. We’re now opening the jars daily, monitoring aroma and feel. This part of the process — the cure — is where the soul of the flower truly comes to life. ☀️ 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 — everything syncing in harmony. This run was stable, lush, expressive — a grower’s dream. To my eyes, this was a perfect run. ⚖️ Final Yield: 1,302 Grams (1.3 kg) In a 4x4 tent — that’s just 1.2m x 1.2m for metric friends — we pulled in 1,302 grams of flower, not even counting the buds that were taken for filming, photos, or “quality control testing” along the way. 😉 Dense. Loud. Sticky. Resinous. 🌿 The Hidden Half: A Tribute to the Roots In every grow, there’s a part we don’t always see — 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 — 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 — 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, they’re hanging and drying — 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 — both medicinal and ritualistic. Though they don’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: • Friedelin – known for liver protection and anti-inflammatory effects • Pentacyclic triterpenoids – believed to support immune and anti-tumor functions • Alkaloids – some studies suggest pain-relief and muscle-soothing properties • High levels of fiber and tannins – excellent for digestive and skin applications 🍵 Root Medicine — Ways to Use Dried Roots: Once fully dried (they should snap like twigs, not bend), they can be gently crushed, powdered, or infused: 🌿 Cannabis Root Tea Soothing & Detoxifying • 1 tablespoon of dried, ground roots • 3 cups of filtered water • Simmer gently (do not boil) for 20–30 minutes • Add a bit of ginger or lemon for taste • Sip warm, especially good for menstrual discomfort, inflammation, and general relaxation 🍲 Healing Root Soup Base Brothy & Nourishing • Add a handful of dried roots into a veggie broth or bone broth • Simmer for 2+ hours • Strain before serving • 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 • Infuse roots in olive oil or coconut oil (low heat, 2–3 hours) • Strain and mix with beeswax to form a balm • Add essential oils like lavender or eucalyptus • Apply to temples, joints, or sore areas 🛁 Root Soak Bath Perfect for grounding and full-body relief • Bundle dried roots in muslin or cheesecloth • Steep in hot bathwater for 15 minutes before entering • Let the soak draw out toxins and ease tension ⸻ 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 — 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 — this wouldn’t have been possible without their harmony working underground while the beauty bloomed above. 🌱 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 — 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. It’s not just dirt — it’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. It’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. 🌞🍅🥒 🌾 The Benefits of Reusing Soil: • Sustainability — less waste, less environmental impact • Cost-effective — no need to constantly buy fresh medium • Soil memory — rich in organic material, microbial life, and structure • Nutrient potential — amended soil still holds value for many plants • A deeper connection — a way to honor the entire cycle of growth When we reuse our soil, we’re not just being resourceful — we’re believing in tomorrow. We’re trusting that what we’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 that’s the most powerful message of all in this journey: Planting is believing in tomorrow. 🌍🌱 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 — the cycle continues. And it’s beautiful. 🎉 The Final Touches Fun fact: • Trimmed on May 25 • Photo shoot on May 26 • This report: May 27 • Dry Bud Exclusive Photo Set: Coming soon Stay tuned — the next upload will be something special, just in time before the Eternity Grow Cup closes on May 31st. ⸻ 💚 Thank You To Zamnesia — your genetics were nothing short of extraordinary.

She started growing new nodes and I started raising the feed on nutrients and kept the ph at 6.5-6.6. She looks like she’s ready to flower soon. Started giving a little bit of a smell like citrusy.

Day 8/3. (8 for Jack and 3 for Lemon) - HELP! Jack started having problems. Someone tell me why this is happening? After the transplant, I poured 100 ml of water. 100 ppm, pH 5.6. Added Root stim, 1 drop per liter. Tonight watered light solution (GHE): micro- 0.5 ml/l, gro- 0.5 ml/l, bloom- 0.5 ml/l, diamond nectar 0.5 ml/l. 380 ppm, pH 5.8. Volume- 200 ml. Watering divide twice. Morning and afternoon. Added to coco perlite. Proportion 1/4. - Lemon is fine. I didn't do anything with lemon Day 9/4. - Jack feels better. The problem has stopped and growth continues. I think this problem was due to overflow. - For Lemon prepared his first solution (BioBizz): gro- 0.5 ml/l, bloom- 0.5 ml/l, diamond nectar(ghe)- 0.5 ml/l, microbiological fertilizer- 1 ml/l. 330 ppm, pH 5.8. Volume- 100 ml. - Both plants are sprayed with a solution of BioBizz. Day 10/5. - Jack is fine. Did not do anything - Lemon is fine. Did not do anything - Both plants are sprayed with a solution of BioBizz. Day 11/6. - Jack Solution: micro- 0,8 ml/l, gro- 0.8 ml/l, bloom- 0.8 ml/l, diamond nectar- 0.8 ml/l. 550 ppm, pH 5.8. Vol- 200 ml. Watering divide twice. Morning and afternoon. - Lemon solution: as in the last watering. - Both plants are sprayed with a solution of BioBizz. I start to remove cups from them so that they get used to low humidity.

Day29F - Buds really taking on form. Smell of banana kicks soon as tent opens, but on touching its more of a banana sherbert still 🤤. Day 31F, noticing calmag deficiency, prior to flush, but looking st other diaries and monitoring her trichomes, she is very nearly at her end. I'm seeing 70-80% cloudy-clear trichomes, so just watering now, pH balanced with calmag to finish to the week. Pistils maturing, trichomes flooding, starting to see cloudy, will try push feeds and water for this week then if she's ready I'll flush next week 🤞✌️💚 Day33F - she has now matured well enough for me to start flushing. Seeing cloudy fat trichomes now covered all over. I'm using RQS led Carson micro to inspect. Started to flush using 2gal each time PhD water with Flawless finish Advanced nutrients. 60-70% run off. Smell is phenomenal. Camera does no justice. I will invest this Xmas and treat myself 😎💚 Monitoring closely now for them amber trichomes.

Week 5 Everything looks good and frosty .. I’ll add the futur vert uv LED’s in a few days

Girls got topped this week. I decided to only top once due to the herming last time. But they are growing well after the transplant last week. I'm happy with the growth and we'll look to flip in about three weeks. That'll put trim time around Christmas which I have off.

25/07/2024 Lights On! Light increased: 520watts. Previously I mentioned the wind swept leaves, as well some are heat stress and slite toxicity from residue build up. Next grow, I'll connect all 3 buckets together and setup a mini system with resviour; should of done it from the start. Never-mind 27/07/2024 Lights On! 3 x 15L Buckets installed! Defolled and dimmed light to 420watts. 28/07/2024 Lights On! Increased light: 530watts Short Vid vid! 30/07/2024 Lights On! Mid-day! Lights Increased to 550watts NEXT GROW GETTING READY! (SCENE CHANGE!) Yellow Green - The Future X DC Seeds Yellow - Monkey Slapz X PreyBirds1 Red - Freaky Pablo X TerpyZ 31/07/2024 Lights On!

3/3 MONDAY 12 am. They are doing great, the supplemental lights are helping. they cost about 60 for the AC Infinity germination kit. I think the 2 lights are enough so it’s cheaper to get another Germination setup with the lights for my 2.8x2.8 tents. 3pm they all took quite a bit of water. feeding into the bottom of the container is very beneficial to the plants. Wish I would’ve known about that sooner I made a video of how I do it. 3/4 4am looking good. 130pm 3/7 4am looking great, new way of watering works better, dont need to water every day now. 1pm give them all water did the heavy watering. They shouldn’t need water tomorrow not until Sunday. They are looking good. I raised the secondary light up a couple of inches. She was causing too much growth lower down in the canopy. The AC Infiniti lights are incredibly powerful at 15 W two of those are more than enough. I’m gonna get two more sets of them for each tent. 4pm Witches Wedding needed work she had twice the nodes I originally thought, so I topped her down to 4 colas, they are very tight internal spacing. She is in with the Trailer Park grow now with a Mix Pack Auto that didn't flower or I made a mistake. If I accidentally got Fas Bud photos instead of Autos it is still like winning the lottery!!!! 3/8 230am I topped her twice and did WAY more cutting back but NO problems, she's looking great. 130pm no water today. 👍👍 3/9 Withces Wedding is in Tent 4 veging. They are doing great. Raised the Aux lighting up a few inches it was causing huge bud formation in the wrong place. Absolutely amazed at how well the little AC Infnity nursery light works, it comes on gentle not all at once. I will have to buy the whole Germination Kit for the light to do this setup in the other 2 grow tents now!!! EVERYTHING HAS TO MATCH!!!!! its not just for cool looks so my Tents look like Star Wars robots if I have to move the plants even a little bit of a difference in lighting can flip them to males and also to be consistent to prevent spills and stupid accidents .

Finalmente i fiori stanno gonfiando come stavo aspettando! Grande settimana quella appena trascorsa, le foglie sono sempre più gialle, ne ho già tolte alcune, e i fiori stanno venendo belli grossi e pelosi. Controllando con il microscopio i tricomi noto che sono quasi tutti bianchi, diverranno ambrati a breve, non vedo l'ora. Ho svuotato completamente i vasi e ho rimesso acqua liscia con il solo overdrive, domenica prossima svuoto di nuovo, aggiungo il flawless finish e via. Manca poco 🍀🤣😎🎉🎊🍾🍀

I’m starting to see both the dosi & bride cakes nodes reaching taller everyday, more & more pistils are forming! No signs of deficiencies or pests. I will be keeping these ladies on the Jacks/ Autopot feed but the seedlings shown in the update video are going to be receiving the Athena program via hand watering which I’m very excited about!

Day 36 from seed touching soil. Cookie still racing Devil for a win. All girls started to smell strong. Development is nice, Mars TSL2000 making wonderfull job. Light is on 75% output. Watered today , 3.2 liters of 6.3 phed dechlorinated water went in. Thought to instal scrog, but its hard to reach anything even now, plus lifting pots becomes a problem. So will do heavy clearing next week or at the end of this one. Day 39. Girls got heavy training. Looks sad, they were ready to sleep, i did it very late in the day and watered next morning. Happy Growing !!!

The plant was harvested on day 67 of flower and is now hanging up to dry. I've got the drying environment set at around 58-60% humidity with a temperature range of 15-19°C. Hoping for a nice slow dry to preserve those terps! 👃💨 Will update once it's ready for the next step. Stay tuned! 🚀

Well I finally got these girls in the dry tent did not get a wet weight will update on the trim and dry weight I will suggest if you are using 5 gallon pots definitely jump to at least a 7 gallon pot huge difference the buds look and smell awesome ready to set up 5x5 and 30 gallon pots

Questa settimana ho notato un piccolo stress alle foglie della cima centrale (questo stress credo sia dovuto alle temperature elevate )

This week i decided to scrog my ladies. I guess the next days I've to lollipop 'em the last time. The growth is also lookin' pretty decent guys. So stay tuned.

20.01.21. 45 дней Халкберри. Халкберри действительноно побил мой рекорд по скорости зацветание. Переход длился всего одну неделю. Видимо я рано сделал 12/12 не дав ей восстановиться после стрессовых тренировок.пришлось подставить 10 см платформу под горшок, чтобы не опускать сетку. Но, тем не менее она очень толстая и пышная дама. Кушает отлично, толстеет, лбрастая стимами, а они у неё очень крупные. Породистость чувствуется. Следим дальше. Всем спасибо за ваше внимания, друзья)) .
