2024-07-23 A few months ago, I germinated three opium poppy seeds. Each seedling was given a different setup: 1. Outdorgrow in a 30L container 2. Outdoorgrow in a 75L container 3. Indoorgrow in a 30L Airpot This post focuses on the indoor plant, which was trained using various techniques such as mainlining, topping, LST (Low Stress Training), and some supercropping. The indoor plant thrived from the beginning, showing vigorous and healthy growth. It responded well to training, consistently displaying a robust appearance. Its growth seemed effortless, requiring only adequate water and minimal nutrients. Training began with topping and continued for 9 weeks during the vegetation phase. The main technique used was mainlining, shaping the plant into a circle using pipe cleaners. The plant's soft stems and branches made it easy to train without causing stress. After 9 weeks of vegetative growth and training, I was satisfied with the result and initiated the flowering phase. The plant continued to flourish, primarily needing water and care. Only a few NPK feedings were necessary, but it received many beneficial supplements with watering. The growing medium used was Terra Preta MJ-Mix, and I applied a mycorrhizal inoculant called DYNOMYCO. This significantly enhanced root development and nutrient breakdown. Essentially, And i applied aTodpressing with Insectfrass, so they stayed lovely green. I was feeding the microorganisms in the Terra Preta mix, which in turn kept the plant healthy. The plant developed beautiful colas while maintaining its circular shape. Harvesting was straightforward. The aroma was fruity (reminiscent of apricot) with a strong, gassy undertone. The buds are currently curing. I've taken photographs of the plant's "skeleton" and some pre-cured buds, showcasing the impressive trichome development. The OutdoorPlants are still growing, and the Diary will continue

Hey guys! Here's the 3rd week of flower! 😻 This week I trimmed my babies (just a little, about 8 leaves or less each plant). Some leaves were healthy but were blocking a lot of light from the flowers and tucking them wasn't doing the job anymore. Besides that Boomer stretched out a lot (which also worried me as I didn't want my babies to go wild on me. I LSTed some of them hoping that would fix the issue). Where I live has been getting somewhat cold at night and I fear that might be doing something to my babies (I hope to be wrong). Besides that the flowers are getting bigger everyday and some are even starting to show some trichomes (I think looks cute!). The pistils are also getting bigger and the smell is stronger now (it was already strong). Near the end of the week I saw Falco's leaves were getting yellow and I suspect it is nitrogen deficiency... and what's causing it is probably some residues at the end of the pot (so I might need to flush her) or maybe I just need to feed her more nutes). Keep in mind she used to be quite small during veg and only in the end she grew enough to be transplanted to a bigger pot. Maybe she's just special? This week you'll see less timelapses compared to last week... I forgot to take photos for about 3 days 😅 but at least there are some! I hope you'll enjoy what I'm sharing! Thanks for reading! 👋

Not much to say about this lady. She has a lovely structure and has a great canopy for only being topped twice. Her buds look fatter and wider than the others. Can't wait to see her develop.

Temps at 78-84 f, humidity inside dome around 68-76 depending on temps. Direct planting into coco jiffy plugs, charged with a light seaweed extract. Took 2 days exactly for seed to pop out of plugs. Another day to remove its shell, will start counting as day 1 from here on out. Check out the other strains on my other diaries. 1 gelat.og auto and a green crack auto, both from seedsman.

(EN) The plants are in a wooden planter to protect them from strong winds (they remain in their 3.6L pots for now). Watering with clear water on day 21. Some plants have slightly tipped but nothing serious. Meteorological change from day 23, with a drop in temperature and rainy, cloudy and windy weather (but this does not prevent the plants from growing, on the contrary). Watering with root fertilizer at 1mL/L and growth fertilizer at 1mL/L on day 25. (CAN) Les plants sont dans une jardinière en bois afin de les protéger des vents violents (ils restent pour l’instant dans leur pots de 3,6L). Arrosage à l’eau clair le jour 21. Quelques plants ont légèrement tigé mais rien de grave. Changement météorologique a partir du jour 23, avec une baisse de température et un temps pluvieux, nuageux et venteux (mais cela n’empêche pas les plants de croître, au contraire). Arrosage avec l’engrais racinaire à 1mL/L et l’engrais de croissance a 1mL/L le jour 25.

Week 6 Veg Report – Runtz We Meet Again! Another week, another step forward in our Eternity Grow Cup 2025 journey, and oh boy, do we have a lot to unpack! These Runtz girls are showing their potential, and we’re dialing in every little detail to ensure they thrive. Let’s dive deep into everything that happened this week! Cal-Mag Deficiency Adjustment – Pheno #5’s Special Needs This week started with a close inspection of our phenos, and we noticed that Pheno #5 was showing early signs of a calcium/magnesium deficiency. Whether it was slightly off VPD levels or this particular plant being more demanding, we decided to correct it by increasing the dose of RO Water Conditioner. Now, while this isn’t a direct substitute for Cal-Mag, it does contain trace amounts that can help stabilize the situation. 🔬 Understanding Cal-Mag Deficiency: Calcium and magnesium are essential secondary nutrients. Calcium strengthens cell walls, preventing issues like tip burn and weak stems, while magnesium plays a critical role in chlorophyll production, allowing plants to efficiently absorb light energy. 💡 Signs of Deficiency: • Yellowing between veins (Magnesium) • Rust spots on leaves (Calcium) • Slow growth and weak stems ⚡ How We Address It: • Slightly increasing RO Water Conditioner to see if trace minerals help • Keeping an eye on overall nutrient uptake to ensure no lockout • Monitoring VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) closely to optimize nutrient absorption Let’s see how she reacts next week! Branching Development – Pheno #2 Leading the Race All five phenos are thriving, but Pheno #2 is showing the most aggressive branching, pushing outward faster than her sisters. However, overall, we’re seeing very uniform growth, which speaks volumes about the stability of these genetics. 🌱 What is Branching & Why It Matters? Branching is the plant’s way of expanding its canopy, increasing surface area for photosynthesis, and maximizing potential bud sites. Well-structured branches allow better airflow, light penetration, and more even growth—key for a successful high-yield harvest. ⚖️ Topping vs. Leaf Bending – The Training Choice Instead of topping, I’ve decided to go with leaf bending for now. This method allows for gentle manipulation of the plant’s growth without causing major stress. Once we introduce the SCROG (Screen of Green) net, this training will help maximize the canopy spread. Moving to the TrolMaster Ecosystem – A Game Changer Big move this week—our Runtz girls officially transitioned into the TrolMaster Ecosystem, and let me tell you, they are absolutely loving it! Under the ThinkGrow Model 1 LEDs, they’re thriving, leaves praying upward, soaking in that optimized spectrum. 💡 ThinkGrow Model 1 LEDs – Why They Work • PPFD of ~400 µmol/m²/s at their level, running only on Channel One • Full-spectrum lighting tailored for optimal vegetative growth • Passive cooling design, keeping temps stable while saving energy Environmental Conditions (Measured on the TrolMaster Tent-X and the AMP-3) • Temp Max: 26.6°C | Min: 16.2°C • RH Max: 77% | Min: 52% • VPD Max: 1.65 kPa | Min: 0.43 kPa • Solution pH: 5.8 • EC: 0.96 • Water Temp: 16.3°C Why These Numbers Matter: • Keeping VPD in check ensures efficient nutrient uptake • pH and EC levels fine-tuned for maximum root absorption • Water temp stable to avoid root shock and slow growth Autopot System Prep – Getting Ready for the Next Phase The week wraps up with us cleaning and preparing the Autopots for their next phase. These self-watering systems will allow the Runtz girls to access water and nutrients at their own pace, optimizing growth as we head into pre-flower soon! A huge THANK YOU to Zamnesia, Plagron, and GrowDiaries for making this incredible Eternity Grow Cup 2025 possible!

Hi guys So the room is looking and smelling amazing. I have a smoothie and amnesia zkittles hanging in a box on day 5 hang dry so far. The othere 6 in the tent will all be getting chopped on Sunday so that's another end to another brilliant fastbud 420 auto run. It went up and down and running 4 x diffrent strains was hard to stay on top of a feeding schedule. Next auto run all the same strain. Next run is a competition run for super sativa seed club so keep an eye out for that 1. #fastbuds420 Happy growing guys 🙌👌

Semaine 2 - Phase Végétative : Journal de Culture pour la Dognabis Cup (Concours DogDoctor)Strain : Jealousy Diesel Auto (OctoGenetica) Système de culture : Super Soil (mélange enrichi, Aptus adapté) Nutrition : Aptus (programme organique pour Super Soil, EC naturelle ~1.8-2.0 mS/cm) Éclairage : 1000W full spectrum, contrôlé par Trolmaster Tent X (augmentation progressive de 10 PPFD par semaine) Contrôle environnemental : Total via Trolmaster (climat, lumière, CO2, VPD) Objectif global : Développer une base solide pour une autoflo robuste, maximiser les têtes en tenant compte du rythme rapide de l'auto. Salut la team DogDoctor et la communauté Dognabis Cup ! Voici le journal de ma semaine 2 en végé pour ma Jealousy Diesel Auto d’OctoGenetica. Cette auto pousse déjà comme une dingue – typique des genetics rapides – avec des tiges qui se renforcent et des feuilles qui s’élargissent bien. Le Super Soil avec Aptus donne une explosion de vert, et malgré un pH encore un peu capricieux en début de semaine, tout s’est stabilisé. Objectif : construire une structure dense avant que l’auto ne bascule en flo d’elle-même (prévu vers semaine 4-5). État des PlantesLes Jealousy Diesel Auto sont en mode turbo : hauteur moyenne 10-12 cm, avec 3-4 nœuds visibles. Les racines explorent bien le Super Soil, et la couleur feuille est un vert profond grâce à l’apport naturel des nutriments. Pas de LST/FIM cette semaine – je laisse l’auto s’exprimer naturellement pour l’instant, mais je surveille pour un éventuel topping léger si un dom domine trop. L’humidité du sol (moyenne 90%) est parfaite, avec un drainage au top via les billes d’argile en surface. Pas de signes de sur-arrosage ou carences – l’EC naturelle du Super Soil (1.9 mS/cm) suit bien la demande. Environnement et ContrôlesTrolmaster tient tout en main : température stable autour de 24°C (cible), humidité à 70% (idéal pour végé), CO2 maintenu à 900 PPM pour booster la croissance. VPD à ~0.9 kPa, parfait pour éviter le stress hydrique. Lumière augmentée de 10 PPFD (passée à ~669 PPFD moyen), et les graphs montrent une belle régularité. Pour l’arrosage : cycles manuels adaptés au Super Soil (1-2 arrosages/jour, ~500 mL par plante), avec pH ajusté à 6.1 après des débuts instables (5.9-6.3). Température de la zone racinaire à 17.8°C, bien ventilée.

Graphs 24h confirment stabilité (Temp 22-24.5°C, Humidité 58-74%, VPD 0.7-1.0 kPa).Défis et AjustementspH instable résolu : Début semaine, pH oscillait entre 5.9 et 6.3 à cause du Super Soil en rodage. Ajustements manuels avec Aptus pH Down, stabilisé à 6.1 fin semaine. Arrosage : Réduit légèrement les volumes (de 600 à 500 mL) pour éviter l’excès d’humidité – sol reste à 90% de mousture, parfait. Croissance auto : Pas d’intervention lourde (LST/FIM) pour l’instant – l’auto pousse vite, je surveille pour un topping si besoin semaine prochaine. Objectifs Semaine 3Augmenter lumière : +10 PPFD (cible ~679 PPFD). Maintenir EC naturelle (~2.0 mS/cm) et pH (6.0-6.2). Tester un léger LST si un dom prend le dessus, sans stresser l’auto. Suivi VPD
