Ich habe die Erde von meinem Outdoor Grow wieder verwendet: Das war in einem 12l Stofftopf als Basiserde BioBizz Light-Mix mit Bio Tabs 50g Startrex und 5g Mycotrex wie in der Anleitung angegeben. Dann habe ich zwei neue Langzeitdünger Tabletten ca. 10cm tief in die Erde eingebracht. Anschließend mit 1g/l Bactrex und 10ml/l Orgatrex in 1l Wasser aufgelöst und gegossen. Lampe zunächst auf 30cm Abstand zur Erde. Nachdem der Sämling etwas gespargelt hat, habe ich die Lampe auf 15cm gehängt. Die beiden Umluftventilatoren laufen meistens 10h pro Tag, da sie mir aktuell im Home-Office noch zu laut sind. Die Lampe ist auf 40% gedimmt. Die Abluft ist noch aus. Temperatur liegt bei 24 Cº, bei 60-80% Luftfeuchtigkeit. Details: 15.10.24: Samen in Wasserglas 21.10.24: Samen ist gekeimt, direkt in großen 12 l Topf mit BioTabs Erde vom Outdoor Grow, 12l Stofftopf auf Fensterbank 22.10.24: Topf ins Zelt gestellt 23.10.24: 2xBioTabs Langzeitdünner in Erde gedrückt. Mit 1l Wasser gemischt mit 1g Bactrex + 10ml Orgatrex gegossen 24.10.24: Geschlüpft 25.10.24: 09:30: Scheint etwas zu spargeln, Lampe von 30 auf 15 cm geändert. / 17:00 Höhe Stamm: 30 mm 27.10.24: 09:30: Höhe Stamm: 35 mm / Abstand Lampen zu Blattspitze: 10 cm Habe mich gefragt, ob der Abstand der Lampe nicht zu gering ist. In https://www.weed.de/wissen/anbau/hanf-wachstumsphasen steht folgendes zur Sämlingsphase. ✅ Lichtquelle positionieren: Positioniere die Lichtquelle etwa 5-10 cm über den Pflanzen, um das Wachstum zu fördern und ein Ausdünnen (Stretching) der Sämlinge zu vermeiden. ✅ Luftzirkulation: Eine leichte Brise, erzeugt durch einen Ventilator, stärkt die Stängel und verhindert Schimmelbildung. Stelle sicher, dass die Luftzirkulation sanft ist, um die zarten Sämlinge nicht zu beschädigen. ✅ Eintopfen: Wenn die Wurzeln der Sämlinge das Anzuchtmedium durchdringen, ist es Zeit, sie in größere Töpfe umzupflanzen. Verwende ein gut durchlüftetes, nährstoffreiches Medium und sei vorsichtig, um die empfindlichen Wurzeln nicht zu beschädigen.

Probably looking at next week for a tentative flush and harvest. Some leaves starting to yellow from maturation, and pistils are getting to where they need to be, with some new white ones still being thrown up on both plants. The smell is strong and exquisite, pungent and sweet. Resin production also looks to be coming along nicely, covering leaves alongside frosty trichomes. Quite a few buds and whole branches have that snow covered look that can’t be beat. Won’t be able to hand water this week so leaving it to the auto waterer with reduced nute concentration. Cheers

This one has been delightful to grow full of buds everywhere with very little Fan leafs can't wait to cure and tested. I have cut down in jar everything the wait was 97 grams please consider that when they comes to my scale weight i wait until the main stem breaks with a loud crunch and the buds are really dry to the touch reason for it I have a very busy life and at the end of the day this is just a hobby so I cannot be opening those jars many times a day at most one in the morning and one in night so I want to avoid mold on them.so I push in a Boveda pack to keep them nice Thank you for reading I will update the other details when ready have a happy grow.

So this was my first grow, way back in 2013. Literally a seed I placed in the ground, hidden behind my water tank and the fucker went out of control. Not too sure if it was taken at 24 weeks, all I know is this plant lived a full life. I had to tie her down about half way into the grow as she was just getting too damn big. Fertiliser? Well nothing but seasol and power feed was used. Virtually no love at all was given to this plant, everything was kept simple. More smoke than I could handle from this crop anyhow, so many ounce bags of weed were given away to many happy mates. Still took a couple of years to vape my way through what I kept. I vacuumed sealed and place in my dedicated dope fridge to ensure longevity. Seriously a top notch smoke, the taste was amazing, the stoned even better. I can only dream that my current outdoor grow will get to this size, but being in a pot it will be restricted for sure but still bountiful. How bountiful is yet to be seen. Check it out if u have the time. Seeing the size of this and my current plant, has made me decide that I will no longer bother with autoseeds. The reward just isn't there I will post harvest videos as well...marijuana porn is what I like to call them 🤣

The smell is very good. A good weight if I consider that I have made some mistakes with Calmag.

Aug 23: Tropicana Cookies Fast Flowering is. cruising along toward the finish. Nice and symmetric with 16 colas all forming a nice long stick of buds. Should be a really good yield off of this one. No pue colour uet but I’m sure it’s coming soon. Aug 27: hit 32 C today and will be hot for another five days or so. With this late heat wave I’ve upped the daily water volume to about 9 L a day over three waterings. Still adding potassium silicate once a day and always adjusting pH with vinegar and then a squirt of Dr Bronners Peppermint Soap as a wetting agent. Smell of peppermint also repels pests, supposedly.

Both phenoe are pushing on nicely. Really good growth from both phenos from 1 seed, 1 had more girt. So, there wasn't an exact even growth ratio. But no pheno was hammered in any way that affected its push through pre fower and into mid fattening. I expect another 3-4 weeks and I'll harvest. Atm there's a nice Lemon exotic smell. Really dank. Musky (earthy). And popping off fruits. Really lovely set of plants. Xpert nutrients are bringing out the best in my grows. They smell, taste and pretty much everything in that regard has improved. These are my new nutrients. As hard as I've been strain hunting. I've always used a different line of Nutrients per crop. And I'm glad to say. These are by far THE BEST nutrients I've used to enhance my crop. Feeds Are pretty much a week in week out with change (all explained with my weeks, DLI and other factors), master root/enzymes have been pult. Master Root no longer needed. Enzymes are all gone. Maintenance This wk, i applied LST bamboo sticks are have done some basic node bending to get the best out of the space in the area above and around its base. Some nodes where tied back to the sticks.. Shout out to my sponsors and all who stop by.

Day 36- 20/6 General: She keeps growing at a very nice pace, flowering stage just started. Today I cut a good amount of foliage, and accidentally broken a nice branch while training her. It broke in a place I couldn't really 'cast it' so I had to let it go. I'm so sad, it was the first time ever. After some very hot days, now came rain, and an exponential increase of RH. Turned off the humidifier for now and still have peaks of 60% with light off and ventilation full on. But RH outside is 95%, so it's hard to do much better for now. Techniques: Training day, moved a little the stems and broke one in the very bottom, so had to discard it. Took some foliage away to get more light in it. Feeding: Fastening day Smell: She's still the queen of the tent when it comes to this topic, no doubts about it. Temps and RH recorded today: 26c - 20c 60% - 39% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 37- 21/6 General: She's gettin really taller this last days. Up is the way! Need to do a little more training tomorrow or the day after to make sure all the plant gets the same amount of light. Today I didn't touched her, just took some pictures and let her do her thing. The heavy rain brough 96% RH outside, so I had a little peak oh 70% inside the tent for an hour, but it kinda locked on the 62% with the lights off and extractor full on. Techniques: Nothing to record. Feeding: Later today, before lights on, she'll have her first feed with flowering nutes. 1250ml Smell: She's still the queen of the tent when it comes to this topic, no doubts about it. When you trim some foliage, it comes a nice passionfruit punch. So good I can't believe in it. For those who know Rubicon or Brisa passion fruit sodas, it's just like that. 😍 Now my biggest stress is keeping my girlfriend away from the grow and keep it closed, because she loves that smell and is constantly nosing around. Love it. Temps and RH recorded today: 27c - 21c 70% - 42% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 38 - 22/6 General: It's stretching season for #3. She really needs a bit of training before it starts full on, and some defoliation. After breaking a stem, I'm a bit traumatised and avoiding touching them for some days. I'm giving her water now for a couple days to see if it gets a bit better, looks like I was giving her a bit too many nutes for this stage. So, first let her dry a bit, then start with PH'ed water. Techniques: Nothing to record. Feeding: I'm giving her water now for a couple days to see if it gets abit better, looks like I was giving her a bit too many nutes for this stage. So, first let her dry a bit, then start with PH'ed water. Smell: Same same, nothing new to record. Temps and RH recorded today: 26c - 22c 62% - 41% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 39 - 23/6 General: This days I really haven't done much. I wanted to give them a week to be themselves, and see after what can I do to improve them, so this weekend I'll use some time to eventually start a Scrog training, If I'm still on time. She's looking good, but I'm afraid the time between them and the advance stage of #1 might not be the perfect condition to do this. Techniques: Nothing to record. Feeding: Only h2o, ph 6.5 Smell: Same same, nothing new to record. Temps and RH recorded today: 27c - 21c 60% - 37% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 40 - 24/6 General: Another day is gone, nothing new, keep giving her water and thinking about the ScrOG to make this more effective, as they start to fight for space in the middle of the grow. She's outgrowing #1 Techniques: Nothing to record. Feeding: Aqua vulgaris - A.K.A. - Tap water Smell: Same same, nothing new to record. Temps and RH recorded today: 28c - 23c 53% - 37% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 41/42 - 24-25/6 General: Big big stretch. Techniques: Nothing to record. Feeding: Aqua vulgaris - A.K.A. - Tap water Smell: Same same, nothing new to record. Temps and RH: 30c - 17c (26 average) 62% - 24% (43% average) Pests and plagues: Nothing to record.

Loving how these girls are growing Fastbuds mystery #1 finally catching up, and may possibly in the end being a better producer than the RQS plant, which is surprising to me because of how badly I stunted this plant. Got me curious how good this plant could’ve been

Eternity Grow Cup - Week 11 VEG Report This is a pivotal week in our Eternity Grow Cup journey as we wrap up VEG and prepare to transition into FLOWER. Our goal has been to ensure that the plants are thriving and optimized for the next phase. This report will detail everything that took place during this crucial week. Mass Defoliation & Structural Training We began the week with an extensive defoliation session. Every leaf with a stem was removed to clear space for optimal light penetration and airflow. This process was done mostly by hand, clicking them off in the opposite direction of growth, while some stubborn ones were snipped with scissors. By the end, it felt like we had taken out nearly half a kilo of leaves! The room now looks clean, structured, and ready to fill out the ScroggNet. To further enhance the plant structure, branches were attached to the pots, allowing for better horizontal growth. This technique helps maximize canopy exposure and prepares the plants for even light distribution once flowering begins. Defoliation before flowering is a key step as it reduces overcrowding, improves airflow, and sets the plants up for efficient energy use in the next phase. Light Schedule & Adjustments This week, we introduced a subtle but effective light adjustment. While still maintaining an 18-hour light cycle, we initiated a 15-minute delay with the whites, allowing the reds to start first. This gradual shift signals the plants that a change is coming. Similarly, at the end of the light cycle, the whites turn off 15 minutes earlier, leaving the reds on for an extended period. This strategy mimics natural sunrise and sunset, helping the plants transition more smoothly into flowering. Additionally, at the end of the week, we will be implementing 48 hours of darkness before the official flip to flower. This method has worked exceptionally well in past grows, helping plants recognize the transition and encouraging a strong start to flowering. However, it's important to emphasize that this is a personal technique and not a universal rule. Every grower should experiment with different methods to find what works best for their specific environment. Environmental Conditions & Challenges Currently, our temperature is at 27°C with 60% humidity, resulting in a VPD of 1.50. While slightly higher than the ideal for VEG, our CO2 levels are over 1000 ppm, and the light intensity is at 570 PPFD, making it a manageable balance. The solution pH is 5.79 (essentially 5.8), EC is 1.38, and water temperature is 17.7°C. One challenge we are facing is maintaining optimal reservoir temperatures. Currently, it's a bit low at 17.7°C, and we are exploring solutions to raise it slightly. However, the medium temperature sits at 22.2°C, which is a good range. The humidifier is still in use, though it struggles to increase humidity further, so we are working with what we have to keep the VPD in check. ICL-300s Integration The ICL-300 lights are now fully active. Unlike the last grow, where we introduced them later, this time they are on from the start of flowering prep. This adjustment is an experiment to see if the plants respond better to an early introduction. Learning is at the core of this journey, and each grow offers new insights. Whether this proves to be the optimal strategy or not, it will be a valuable lesson for future grows. TrolMaster Hub & Data Monitoring Throughout the week, we have been closely monitoring our grow using the TrolMaster App TM+. We are displaying some of the collected data for everyone to see the details. Stay tuned as we explore this further in the next report! As always, we want to extend a huge thank you to our sponsors and the amazing community. Special thanks to Aptus, Groovebags, Cannakan, Promix, Ziggy Papers, TrolMaster,and Plagron, Zamnesia and Grow Diaries for making the Eternity Cup possible. I apprecilove the support from all sides—lovers, haters, competitors, and fellow growers. The competition continues to push us to improve, and i am thrilled to see the incredible reports from others. This is a challenging yet rewarding experience, and i couldn’t be happier to be part of it. For those following along, we invite you to check out our YouTube channel, where we upload full 4K episodes showcasing the entire journey. Some episodes are too large to be uploaded directly to Grow Diaries, so YouTube is the best place to catch everything in high definition. This marks the end of VEG, and we are officially ready to flip to FLOWER. Next week, we will dive into the TrolMaster System in action, check the data insights, and monitor how the garden adapts to the shift. Stay tuned! Growers Love to all, happy growing, and best of luck to all competitors! See you all in the next update!
