Sorry lovelies, I've been a bit lazy with my diary the last few days. This is probably due to the brilliant effect of Dark & Big Devil 😈, which slowly reach their full potency through exact curing. Incredibly pleasant feelings, all day long. I'm super chilled, stimulated, but not tired for the time being. But now I don't want to keep you in suspense any longer and talk a little bit about the care last days, with my "Long-Life-Automatic" ;-)) Sour Jealousy. A few days ago, my relatively new oscillating ProFan started to rattle. After all, it always got stuck in one place. So I went to get another oscillating fan (RAM) for my new home box. In the process, I developed a new ventilation strategy. The ProFan can't turn anymore, but at least it's wonderfully straight! ;-) so in the future he will aerate the plants around the 20 l fabric pots in a well-circulating manner. Since the new Home Box has a height of 2.20 m, there may even be one more fan in the grow space. What I want to say is the following: I have now implemented this idea in the 80 box for a few days and the plant reacts excellently. The only important thing is that the draught indirectly envelops the root area. I have the impression that it works even more efficiently, like a machine. Also, I really have to say that I've never experienced such a voracious sativa phenotype before. Namely, one that literally eats the hair off my head. 🤣 The harvest of the two Sweet Seeds seems like a long time ago. I didn't expect such a long "overtime" either. However, I am happy to have received so much new input. You never stop learning. I assume that it will take about 2 weeks from now on, until the harvest. Again, she takes her time. Incredible. So many white hairs more. She now greases the grapes nicely, just a sativa monster! šŸ‘ŗ And eats and eats and eats. The colas are fully stocked from bottom to top and the scent almost robs me of the little sanity I have left. 🤣 The diameter of the main stem is 4.5 cm. Absolute record so far. I have also bought new supply air systems, and a Flexi-Tray as a protective pan for the Home Box. I even managed to get hold of fixture poles to be able to use the Home Box more efficiently. Among other things, I have significantly improved the recirculating air situation. I think every ambitious grower should think twice about this: the convection! An important topic, in my opinion. In my case, this means one in the root area, one oscillating on the leaf roof and one at lamp height to distribute the heat better. I also let the compost tea ferment for almost 40 hours and each time half an hour before pouring, a level teaspoon of Bactrex was added - with full aeration. Thus, the soil life literally explodes and works...! And I combine it with the Bio PK Booster from Biotabs. I like the combination of both. I use the PK Booster in a slightly lighter dosage than indicated. Because my tea version, I think, hits quite a bit every time. After all, it says: ā€œStop feeding your plants, start feeding your soil.ā€ Organic farming - my passion to grow! Soon I will redeem my darling... Looks very juicy! Maybe tomorrow sun again until Monday and from Monday morning 48 hours of absolute darkness with full circulating air and exhaust air circulation. I think you can't use a HS 80 more efficiently. I'm enjoying the last few days with my good old Secret Jardin HS 80. It offered me excellent quality and quantity. The material was disproportionately well processed at the price level. Only the corners I reinforced with self-adhesive aluminum foil. And what I find so cool about my Hydro Shoot is and was: It’s ideal for bedroom cultivation. But it's really time for a technology change. I'm looking forward to my first run in the new cream-colored Home Box Q 100 + … the end is approaching. 🤪 I wish everyone a peaceful Christmas season, much joy and peace in Your hearts. And all the happiness in the world. Take care & BeešŸ positive Alpha_Green

Week 4 and buds are beginning to fatten up nicely, I’ve changed the position of the gelato and one of the Zkittles to improve light penetration into the canopy as the leaves have began to defoliate themselves from the plants. This being said all plants are looking green and healthy and show minimum environment stress. Hopefully this change in the canopy will allow each of the strains to grow to their full potential with the limited space that I have.

Ninth Week / 04.07.24 - 10.07.24 Week 9 was smooth with no major issues—everything’s going great! 🌿 Whenever the sun was shining, I took the opportunity to put the plants out on the balcony for some direct sunlight. ā˜€ļø Kept up with the 18-hour light schedule indoors and continued watering every three days. šŸŒ±šŸ’§ The plants are looking healthy and vibrant, making steady progress in their growth and development. Loving this journey! šŸš€šŸŒ¼

2 weeks into flower guys. Looking real nice stayed really short considering they nearly had a 6 week veg , and the write up on them says they have an explosive stretch during the flip not seen they yet but I'm not complaining . Changed the nutrients from pre flower to full flowering feed as stated on the chart . Picked a few fans of all of them yesterday not to much just anything overlapping.

This week I’ve been mostly working on sealing my filtering system because I started to notice a weak smell in my apartment. I live in a building with 200 other flats and I don’t want my neighbours to smell anything when they walk past my door. I used some plastic wrap first and then duct tape around it. Tightly. So far it seems to work but I might have to buy something more appropriate. The two bottom leaves started to go yellow. I don’t know what it’s trying to say, so I’m going to ignore it. It’s only two. I’m new to watering but the plant seems to be quite healthy and strong so I’m just going to continue doing what I’ve been doing. Which is giving it water when I think it’s thirsty.Some days I give her water, some days I don’t. Anyway I think it looks pretty good so far! She really looks healthy

I tend to forget about her as im mesmerized by others, she’s the one with the best perfume currently in the room. It’s very possible she starts busting late flower, trellis is up show me what you got girl. Coated top down she is some sticky icky oooooh weee! Yep hydro still in Veg Ive topped for a second round shit will be bonkers and going in the flower tent after this round. Will most likely initiate flowering in aboit 2 weeks or until she blows the top off this tent. Stay Safe Stay Fresh GHL

Ladies and gentlemen today is the day! Day 64 and she is officially chopped.. now, I will admit that the very bottom buds are not one hundred percent matured, but 90% of the plant is exactly where I want it.. a little bit of amber with at least 75% cloudy .. thank you Zamnesia Seeds for sponsoring this grow, it has been an absolute breeze from beginning to end and she smells and looks like some exotic flower.. Also a good yielding plant as well.I'm expecting over 6 oz of dried flower.. hope everyone is doing well with their ladies.God bless and happy growing āœŒļø

Excellent week again for this young lady. She has grown heavily, and her 5th node is up and spreading its leaves. What this means is, yup. She got topped. Roots are looking good, and this also gives me a change to do a bit of pruning. Also allowed me to top of the clay pebbles, as I definitely started her a little low in the netted pot.

🌱 The Road to Eternal Glory: My Eternity Grow Cup Journey 🌟 First off, a massive thank you to Grow Diaries, Plagron, and Zamnesia for organizing this groundbreaking competition. Your efforts in bringing growers together and elevating the craft are nothing short of legendary. To all the participants: I wish you the best of luck. Let’s make this an inspiring and memorable experience for everyone involved! šŸ’š Why I’m Excited I can’t express how thrilled I am to be part of the Eternity Grow Cup. This is more than just a grow—this is about pushing boundaries, learning, and sharing the magic with this incredible community. For me, it’s also a chance to reconnect with an old friend: the Zamnesia Runtz. This was one of my all-time favorite strains, a true keeper, until an unfortunate heatwave took her away. But here we are again, Runtz and I, ready to make history together. The Setup: A Glimpse of the Future To make this grow truly legendary, I’m using state-of-the-art equipment: • Lighting: The Future of Grow LED Black Series 600W or the germination, and after i am moving it all to my TM ecosystem Stay tuned, and controlled by the powerhouse TrolMaster Tent-X system, ensuring precision and optimal conditions every step of the way. • Nutrients: A custom mix of Aptus Holland and Plagron nutrients—because innovation meets reliability in this grow. • Medium: The ever-dependable Pro-Mix HP with Biofungicide and Mycorrhizae, ensuring strong roots and vigorous growth. • Germination Station: Seeds will sprout in my trusted CannaKan Germination Station, which has never let me down. Let’s Make Magic Together This is more than a diary—it’s a journey filled with learning, growth, and shared passion. I invite you to follow along not just here, but on Instagram and YouTube, where the magic will truly unfold. Expect deep dives into every step of the process, tips, tricks, and, of course, a final smoke report that’ll be as epic as the grow itself. From this moment until the last puff, this journey will be nothing short of epic. Together, let’s make it one for the history books—educational, inspiring, and unforgettable. Stay tuned for the next update: The Germination Report. Let’s rise and shine, legends! 🌟 🌱 The Germination Report: A New Beginning for the Eternity Grow Cup 🌟 First and foremost, I want to wish the best of luck to all the participants in the Eternity Grow Cup. To our incredible hosts—Grow Diaries, Plagron, and Zamnesia—thank you for creating this phenomenal platform and competition. You’re elevating the craft, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be part of it! šŸ’š The Journey Begins: Germination Success! Every great grow starts with the perfect germination, and I’m excited to share how I kicked off this legendary adventure. Using my trusted CannaKan Germination Station, I started the Zamnesia Runtz seeds—my old favorite strain—with the hope of finding a pheno as extraordinary as the passion fruit treasure I once had. The Process: My Way to Germination Glory Remember, there’s no ā€œone-size-fits-allā€ method in growing. What works best is what adapts to your environment. Here’s how I do it: 1. Choosing the Right Tools • I use the CannaKan Germination Station, a tool I trust for consistent results. • With cold temperatures in my setup, I relied on a heat mat to maintain warmth, though it was still a little nerve-wracking! 2. The 24-Hour Miracle • Within less than 24 hours, the seeds had already sprouted and were ready to move into their next home. Seeing that spark of life so quickly is always magical. 3. Moving to Soil • I carefully transplanted each seedling into tiny pots filled with Pro-Mix HP with Biofungicide and Mycorrhizae, which offers excellent aeration and support for root development. • Each pot was labeled Runtz #1–5, ensuring I can track every pheno individually as the journey unfolds. 4. Sprouting Against the Odds • Despite the cold temps, those little warriors jumped out of the soil within 48 hours! Their resilience and vigor have me beyond excited for what’s to come. Tips for Germination Success Here’s what I’ve learned to keep germination smooth: • Consistency is key: Whether it’s moisture, temperature, or light, try to create a stable environment for your seeds. • Gentle hands: Handle your seeds with care when moving them; they’re delicate at this stage. • Adapt to your environment: No method is universal—always tweak your process to fit your conditions. • Patience: Sometimes, seeds need a little extra time to sprout. Keep faith! Next Steps: The Adventure Awaits Now that the seedlings are up and thriving, it’s time to let the journey truly begin. I’ll be hunting for that passion-fruit-like pheno that captured my heart last time, but every seed holds the potential for greatness. For now, I’m keeping it simple: plain water, no nutrients—just letting them establish strong roots. Stay Tuned for the Magic This is only the beginning. I invite you to follow along on Instagram and YouTube, where I’ll be sharing photos, videos, and behind-the-scenes updates. Expect plenty of knowledge, tips, and excitement as we navigate this grow together.
