I made it to week 12 flower. Visual changes are, trichomes of top colas range from 15-30 amber, there's some purpling of the leaves from the cooler temps. After waiting longer then I wanted this week, I found a day to harvest comfortably(after record breaking heat)...I've harvested both plants already, and they are drying while suspended from hangers. Next week, and after the drying period I will have dry weight and more pics of the harvest. Temperature is 70-65°, and humidity is 45-50 during drying, and I'm going for a 6 day dry.

Day 43. Girls are stretching to the moon !!! Noticed that almost an hour after lights on and two hours before lights go off - plants droopy/sleepy asf. Reduced to 18 hours . Plan heavy feed next watering and will have to SuperCrop both Monster Alaskan Diesel's. All runs good, thinking to change positioning into 2332 instead of 5 rows by two. Some plants are insanely big , even for autos and some are so so, so I think I put more efforts into main two and will reduce light for 4 weakest ones. My Rh stays in high 70, thinking defoliation will be a must too ... Let's see how they will take heavy feed and training ... Day 45. After heavy feed - they went like this ;))) I don't know what happen , but 928 ppm at second week of flower was never so heavy in my all grows ... Those plants just hate feed ... Maybe my soil is finally good and full of life ... Very lost ... Hope they bounce back, if no - again 3-4 pure phed water watering and fingers crossed ... ;))) I left out silica in this feed even and it was still too much ! Day 46. All back to normal. Think low temps and big amount of water, drowned them a bit, will reduce quantity of water during next sessions. P.S. I don't have gnats anymore !!! Bought soil, it was infected, never change sticky traps during grow, they still work. P.S.2 I can't have pH issues, two blue lab pens works at same time. Aways follow strick number, always use dehlorination It was a strange one, otherwise I wouldn't ask for help. Overwatered plants drop leaves, but no so low and for so please long ! Pots are lighter, so all is good. I put now 50 liters into girls during session, collect all spillage and run off, have about a liter each time. Happy Growing !!!

Welcome to the start of week 5 for Queen Citronella. She has developed a thick stem and really short internodal spacing. She responds willfully to LST. Day 29.5: Repotted. Look at those roots!! This is a special plant. Day 30: There was brief transplant shock as I forgot to flush the medium to correct PH... she's bounced back today. Queen Citronella has almost outgrown Karen who is 2 weeks older. Day 31: Happy one month birthday your majesty! Swelling in every direction. Starting to gain height. Day 32: I've noted a sudden uptick in thirst. In an unrelated note I have added a little 15w LED above her at about 10cm. I doubt it'll make any noticable difference but it's in there anyway as I use it for photos, so it may as well be on. Day 32.5: Have removed approx 20 fan leaves and performed further LST. Day 33: Look how fast Queen Citronella responds to LST and defoliation. She has gained 1cm in the last 24 hours and now stands at 25cm. Day 34: 26cm. Day 34.5: Fertigated. Added pot risers and adjusted pot. Performed further LST on lower nodes. Performed HST on some higher nodes just for practice. Day 34.75: Fertigated 4l Day 35: She didn't gain any height at all that I can tell, but she has put on a lot of leaf growth in the last 24h. So here we are at the end of week 5, and Queen Citronella is starting to take her regal form. Slightly alarmed by the yellowing new growth but her growth rate has stepped up again so it may be just normal. I'll keep an eye on it. Once I can take enough clones I'll cut her back a lot. For now she can grow as much as she wants. Citronella now smells citrusy, if you brush against her it's quite strong. Defoliated approx 6 fan leaves.

Flowering Week 6 – wrap-up and transition into Week 7 We’re closing flowering week 6 with a very solid overall state: stable plants, buds stacking consistently, and a clear increase in resin production. The main goal this week was to finish the active bulking phase, keep metabolism high without forcing, and set everything up properly for the transition into maturation. 🌱 Environment & lighting Throughout the week, conditions were kept very stable and within optimal ranges: • Day temperature: 24–25 °C • Night temperature: 18–19 °C • Relative humidity: 50–55 % • Day VPD: ~1.30–1.35 kPa • Night VPD: ~0.95–1.05 kPa • Average PPFD: 900–930 µmol/m²/s • Ambient CO₂: ~550–600 ppm These parameters allowed efficient transpiration, proper nutrient uptake, and the beginning of color expression without slowing down bud development. ⸻ 💧 Irrigation schedule (exact recipes) Base feeding (no PK) – 22 L • Sensi Cal-Mag Xtra: 30 ml • Bio·Grow: 6–6.3 ml • Bio·Bloom: 115–133 ml • Top·Max: 23 ml • Bio·Heaven: 21 ml • Bud Candy: 38 ml • Atazyme: 25 ml • EC: ~1.55–1.60 mS • pH: 6.3 PK feeding (single, targeted application) – 22 L • Sensi Cal-Mag Xtra: 30 ml • Bio·Grow: 6 ml • Bio·Bloom: 115 ml • Top·Max: 23 ml • Bio·Heaven: 21 ml • Bud Candy: 38 ml • Atazyme: 25 ml • PK 35/60: 6 ml (pre-dissolved) • EC: ~1.64 mS • pH: 6.3 End-of-week adjusted feeding – 22 L • Sensi Cal-Mag Xtra: 25 ml • Bio·Grow: 5 ml • Bio·Bloom: 105 ml • Top·Max: 22 ml • Bio·Heaven: 20 ml • Bud Candy: 36 ml • Atazyme: 22 ml • EC: ~1.37 mS • pH: 6.2 PK was applied once, at the correct moment, as a metabolic trigger. It will not be repeated. ⸻ 🔍 Current plant status • Calyxes are still swelling, not fully closed yet. • Trichomes are mostly milky, with clear room for further maturation. • Slight yellowing on some leaf tips, normal at this stage due to high demand and controlled senescence. • No active deficiencies or nutrient lockouts observed. ⸻ ▶️ Next steps We’re now entering flowering week 7, maintaining stability and precision. Over the next few days, we’ll start working with controlled drainage during irrigations to balance the substrate and progressively guide the crop toward the final stage, without aggressive flushing or rushed decisions. 📲 Daily content on Instagram, with real-time updates, photos, and videos of the grow.

En esta etapa no agregue ningún nutriente a la solución para evitar que la planta tenga gusto al nutriente, así dicen los expertos que queman esta hierba. Yo lo hago solo por deporte, no porque lo fume. mantuve el ph en condiciones estables a como dictan los científicos en este rubro. la próxima😁 semana corto las plantas y las pongo a secar.

👹 MonsterMarker – Week 7 | Flowering Start 🌸 This one is a real beast! 🚀 The roots are the most explosive of all my plants – absolutely insane growth underground 🌱. On top, she’s very stocky and strong, which makes me think there’s a lot of Indica genetics in her 🍃💪. The smell is already super nice – deep, rich, and very promising 🌿💨. She feels like she’s building the foundation for some serious flowers. Can’t wait to see how this monster evolves – follow along, it’s going to be fun 👹🔥. --- 👹 MonsterMarker – Woche 7 | Blütebeginn 🌸 Das hier ist echt ein Biest! 🚀 Die Wurzeln sind von allen Pflanzen am krassesten gewachsen – richtig verrücktes Wachstum unter der Erde 🌱. Oben ist sie dagegen sehr stämmig und kompakt, was stark nach einem hohen Indica-Anteil aussieht 🍃💪. Der Geruch ist schon jetzt richtig gut – tief, reichhaltig und sehr vielversprechend 🌿💨. Man merkt, dass sie gerade die Basis für dicke Blüten aufbaut. Bin gespannt, wie sich dieses Monster entwickelt – bleibt dran, das wird spannend 👹🔥.

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!

Real simple week for these girls. KNF with fish hydrolysate, Build a Soil Trio (Coco, Q, and Build a Bloom), humic acid, and cal-mag. The 5 gallon is looking good. I've grown bigger plants in this size pot but this looking like a real fast finisher, maybe 2 or 3 weeks more. It smells great too! Pine and citrus notes when I rub the sugar leaves. The 15 gallon is .... not that great. Im thinking of pull this one and planting another plant. It's unfortunate cause I wanted to see this strain at full potential in the 15 gallon but it never recovered from the gnat issue at transplant. Sucks cause it's the last Six Shooter I had but it just means I get to grow something different in the late summer sun. We'll see what happens next week. Also, I caught this spider coming in at night to munch on pest. Best IPM you could ask for (but I still sprayed some EM-5 lol). ✊🏾

Hey Guys, so I have ran into some difficulties regarding our power supplier. Due to the current situation we are facing in South Africa the power company "Eskom" does not have ample supply to provide constant electricity to our country anymore. This is very sad. So they implement a system called "loadshedding" where the cut off power supply in certain suburbs at certain times. This has got me in a complete and utter flat spin as I'm not always at home when this happens. The past 2 weeks have been immensely rough as we we're scheduled for outages 3 times a day for 2,5 hour intervals. Between 02:00AM - 06:30 my tent's power went off (depending on scheduled time). This has in fact caused some VPD problems ( I tried getting up every night, but I still have to get enough sleep for work ). As you can imagine, it sucks BIG TIME. I've done my best to keep at par & doctored where I could. *Decreased Light Intensity (600W) *Decreased Wind Velocity on canopy Almost approaching the start of week 3. Feeding schedule from 3 day interval - 2 day interval ( 2L per feed ) Selective defoliation to get light on lower tops. Used some garden wire to support 2 main colas which we're too high. Note: Pest/Mould check done. Foliar sprayed with H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) @ coolest part of day - Next day applied high alkalinity ph'd water to kill mildew spores - Fan heater running from 03:30AM - 06:00AM, pulsing/regulating temp at 19-21°C [ until light comes on ] Grow Logging Light Distance From Canopy = 65cm Substrate Temp = 16 C Substrate PH = 6.0 Normal - Moist Level 79cm = Scrog Net Height 95cm = Tree Height PPFD = 20.1 C = Tent 45% RH
