The Sensi Seeds Research breeding project has created eleven cannabis seed varieties. How? By combining new cannabis cultivars with a selection of strains from their long-established cannabis gene bank. For the first time in thirty-six years, they are opening the doors of the Sensi Seeds Research and Development Department. Week #3 Transplanted the seedlings from the cups to small pots (1,5l) at the beginning of the week. These small pots are perfect for pre-veg, they will be full of roots in 2-3 weeks. The wrong size of plant in the wrong size of pots will always lead to overwatering, this is why I use those intermediary pots before transplanting in their final pots (18l). The young plants are growing like if they were under natural sunlight, it’s very funny. The Mars-Hydro SP250 is imitating the sunlight, the plants are getting outdoor structures, they stand straight like if they were adults at only 15cm tall 😄. After 2 weeks in the cups with just some RootBooster they started to get slightly yellow. I have added some Cellmax BIO 8-2-2 with the RootBooster in the solution for watering after transplanting just to give them a lil help while the roots start to process the new soil (BIO). (I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control)

Week 10 Flower — The Beauty Before the Finish This week marks a very special chapter in the Eternity Grow Cup. As we approach harvest, the garden is simply glowing with beauty. Every corner, every canopy, every branch tells a story — and this week, I’ve taken the time to slow down and capture that story as best I can through the lens of my camera. All the photos you’ll see in this update were taken with care and intention. I use my Sony camera in full manual focus mode, and I don’t just snap and go — I spend time with each plant, each angle, waiting for that perfect moment when everything aligns. These are not just photos to document — they’re my attempt to reflect the feeling of the room, the energy of the grow, and the soul of each plant. Just like with the videos, I don’t shoot randomly and decide later. I record what matters, and what I record, I use. It keeps me focused, organized, and deeply connected to the process — and I believe it helps me tell the story more clearly, whether through stills or moving pictures. All five Runtz phenos are finishing beautifully. Each one expressing unique traits, but all carrying the same stunning quality — dense, clean, colorful, resin-rich flowers that fill the room with pride. This garden is finishing spotless, and I couldn’t be happier. This week’s YouTube episode will reflect that beauty. If you’re seeing this here on GrowDiaries, I highly recommend checking it out in full 4K once it’s live — there are moments that simply can’t be translated in photos alone, even though I try my best. But for those who love the details, the full spread of pictures is right here, as always. t this point in flower, the girls are not eating — they’re just drinking clean water with nothing but System Clean in the reservoir, at a rate of 0.25 ml per liter. This is part of a gentle, prolonged flush phase I like to implement, giving the plants a chance to metabolize and fade naturally. The goal is to promote clean, vibrant flowers that finish with optimal expression, without rushing the process. No forced flush, just time and care. Lighting-wise, the spectrum has been tuned with precision — we’re currently running 40% on the whites, with reds and UVs at 100% to drive trichome development, resin production, and color expression in these final days. The plants are loving it — they’re soaking in the deeper wavelengths that signal the end of their life cycle and responding with a final push of energy. And yes — we’ve been running 11 hours of light and 13 hours of darkness from the very start of flower. It’s not the usual 12/12, and it comes with its pros and cons. On the upside, it helps speed up ripening slightly, encourages more compact flower formation, and mimics the natural seasonal decline in daylight. On the flip side, it slightly reduces the overall DLI (daily light integral), so you need to ensure your PPFD and spectrum are dialed in just right to avoid sacrificing yield. For me, the trade-off is worth it — the plants are expressing themselves beautifully, finishing strong, and packing on the final magic. Now it’s your turn — I’d love to hear from you. Which phenotype is standing out the most to you in this garden? Which one is catching your eye with its colors, its fade, its structure, or just that vibe that speaks to your soul? Is it the frost? The density? The posture? Each of these girls has her own personality, and I know many of you have been following closely — so drop a comment, let me know: which one is your favorite? Which one would you take home? This run has officially earned the Dog Doctor Official Wax-Sealed Stamp of Approval. These genetics are beautiful — expressive, vibrant, clean. It’s been a joy to grow them, and an even greater joy to share this journey with all of you. Of course, we still have the final word coming after harvest, drying, and curing — that’s when the full picture reveals itself. But until then, based on everything we’ve seen and lived in this grow… this is the real deal. To everyone following the journey — thank you. To the sponsors, the community, the silent observers, the passionate growers, the haters, the lovers — I see you all, and I appreciate every bit of energy you send. This cup has been about more than just growing. It’s been about sharing. Connecting. Creating something beautiful together. And we’re almost there. Next stop: harvest? provably yes lets see !

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 22/11/2019 - Pot feels light and dry gave her 1,5l PH 6.2 water with 0.75ml-Grow, 0.75ml-Max, 1.5ml-Bloom, 2.25ml-Heaven and 2.25ml-Acti vera from Biobizz, noticed almost no runoff this time. 27/11/2019 - Pot feels light and dry gave her 1,5l PH 6.3 water, noticed a lot of burned tips no nuts this time I guess? some runoff appeared.

Ok Blue toof is really doing great. She smells of sweet fruit, it is a very nice smell. Raised ppm to 680 she was fine at 600. Defoleated all the bottom. She sure showing her indica traits. The leaves are nice and fat. Her stem has gotten nice and fat also. It is the biggest of the bunch. I really like the shape and branches are also nice and fat. Hung the second light. So let the show go on.

The buds are incredibly dense and completely frosted with trichomes, shining under every light. The terps are intense and full-bodied a true explosion of aroma and flavor that hits hard! Only the brave should dare… sensitive souls, proceed with caution 😆😆

📋 The Lemonpaya was a good plant to grow, im gutted about the start of bud rot, it was only a tiny bit, 3 buds tightly packed together and it was were all 3 buds touched each other. So i removed more then i needed to of decent buds just being cautious. I should have chopped the tops a good week before i did because they were ready, and i may have gotten away without mold, and the lowers would have benefited with the extra light. After 2 weeks drying I put the buds into terplock bags, never used these bags before so I'm hoping everything works out. Stats for the GDG21 Truffle gas. Dry decent buds 94g Dry larfy buds 4g Lemonpaya Dry decent buds 62g Dry larfy buds 8g Trashed buds 21g Total decent buds=156g Total larf=12g Removed because of rot 21g Hash=7g Total=163g Light power=217.11 KW during the 115 days of the grow. 18hrs for 35 days=630hrs, 16hrs for 7 days=112, 12hrs for 70 days=840hrs. Total hours lights on=1582hrs Average watt per hour lights on=137w 1.18g/w 📋 Smoke report. This isn't what I expected at all the, I'm not a fan of lemon strains but this one only has a very slight lemony taste. Better then I was expecting. Take it easy. Back soon.

Esa familia, 2 semana de floración, salió un macho, espero no llevarme más sorpresas por lo demás todo prosigue igual están tirando preflores hembra y pues ahí van el armario grande tuve que practicar un crooping en las puntas para que no se me fuesen de altura mucho y así estimulo las ramas laterales a tirar hacia la luz. Alimentación normal bases y big bud con bud candy , yo creo que algo sencillo y básico que les sienta fenomenal a las plantas. Iremos viendo El Progreso estas semanas a ver cómo va esta variedad que tal rinde. Buenos humos familia

This strain gave us no problems, very simple to grow! The plants both stayed small and bushy until flower, then they took off. We will be back to adjust the weight and add more comments. 8/14/21 - The buds are done curing and it’s 🔥 Smooth and flavorful 💨 We finally smoked it and couldn’t finish a joint lol. It’s a lot stronger than we anticipated. I love indica strains and this is now one of my favorites. Next up we have 2 Lemon Kush and 2 Gelato growing outdoors as a side project in between indoor LED grows. Blueberry from seedsman was so simple to grow. We messed up on a few things but we got plenty of nice buds and made 2lbs of butter for edibles. -FIN-

Might need to add another brick. *No new brick needed ✅ This is how I recycle my coco coir — fast, cheap, no BS. 🌿 Harvest plant ✂️ Chop roots small — they stay in for structure (organic perlite) 💦 Hot water rinse — remove salts & dust 🍶 Pre-soak with light feed:   Micro 10ml   Bloom 0ml   GreenBuzz 10ml   Cal-Mag 60ml   FFJ/FPJ 10ml (new disgusting batch)   pH down (citric acid) ♻️ Media stays — Roots stay — Back in service. 14.04.25 (GW1) – Planted seed in final pot ✅ 16.04.25 (GW1) – Did last tent clean up + setup ✅📸 17.04.25 (GW1) – Seed germinated 🎉📸 — roughly 48hrs in final pot. Solid start👌♥️ 23.04.25 (VW1) – Minimal burnt tips 📸 — not progressing, not a concern. 26.04.25 (VW1) – Started using the new batch of FPJ/FFJ https://growdiaries.com/diaries/266849-grow-journal-by-yan402 30.04.25 (VW2) – Increased TriPartMicro & GreenBuzzBloom 10ml → 15ml 03.05.25 (VW2) – Increased TriPartMicro again 15ml → 20ml, topped the plant, and added final layer of clay pebbles around the base, trimmed side branches and did LST in preparation for "manifold" 📸 08.05.25 VW3 finished manifold📸 13.05.25 VW4 Increased TriPartMicro to 30ml and GreenBuzzBloom to 20ml. 15.05.25 VW4 Done defoliation and LST 📸 18-19.05.25 VW5 pruned all the shoots bellow my "mains" and did a full defoliation📸 24.05.25 VW6 increased GreenBuzzBloom to 30ml 04.06.25 VW7 did a cleanup📸 11.06.25 VW8 increase TriPartMicro to 40ml 17.06.25 (VW9) – Final structure pass 💈🌿 Did a clean perimeter prune + removed weak shoots. Ended up with 12 tops, was aiming for less, but she made the call Didn’t fight it, just shaped it the best I could Airflow’s good, structure’s stable 🛑 No more cuts until post-stretch Pics coming shortly 😘 Flip coming soon — we’ll see how she handles it. 20.06.25 VW9 Switched lighting to 12 hours, may the stretch begin 🤞 22.06.25 VW10 Did a good LST session,made some pics, and came to some conclusions and a small change of plans: Originally planned for 8 mains — long, spaced colas and maybe a couple stronger “titans” if she wanted to go that way. But she’s showing me something else, and I’m not here to fight her — just guide her. Now after stretch, I’m keeping side shoots only if they: Fill real canopy gaps Don’t crowd neighboring tops (minimum 15cm spacing) Aren’t growing into walls or toward the next plant Anything too close, too low, or heading into shade gets removed. No point forcing it. Looks like I’ll finish with 14–16 solid tops, depending on how she settles. I’m just trying to give each one enough light and space to stack properly. No overcrowding, no larf — just letting her do her thing with a bit of structure. Increased Tri Part Micro to 50ml as well. 28.06.25 VW11 one week since I flipped to 12/12 and she is stretching nicely, a bit shy in showing pistils compared to the Fantasy Feast regulars I have in the same tent. 29.06.25 VW11 increased GreenBuzzBloom 30→ 60ml 06.07.25 FW1 TriPart Micro: 50→ 30ml TriPart Bloom: 0 → 20ml Home-made FFJ/FPJ (Watermelon + Pumpkin): 10 → 30ml 12.07.25 FW1 GreenBuzzBloom 60 →40ml, TriPart Bloom: 20 → 60ml, fpj 30→60ml 19.07.25 FW3 Got some bleached tops, been out and about at job interviews and didn't notice a last minute stretch spurt 😭, should recover fine though plenty of time left 😁 22.07.25 FW3 TriPartMicro 30→20ml , TriPartBloom 60→80ml , GreenBuzzBloom 40→50ml 24.07.25 FW3 Cal-Mag 60→40ml 26.07.25 got thrips but handled them with extra airflow and defoliation. 29.07.25 FW4 GreenBuzzBloom 50→20ml, Home-made FFJ/FPJ (new batch) 60→120ml 31.07.25 FW4 Home-made FFJ/FPJ (new batch) 120→200ml 13.08.25 FW6 CalMag 40 →30ml, GreenBuzzBloom 20→0ml 20.08.25 FW7 TriPartMicro 20→10ml, TriPartBloom 80→0ml, GreenBuzzBloom 0→60ml, CalMag 30→20ml 27.08.25 FW8 GreenBuzzBloom 60→0ml, FinalPartRipen 60ml 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 🌿 Day to day tasks & actions 🌿 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 23.08.25 FW7 – Fed 2l of #1 → 0.5l runoff 24.08.25 FW8 – Fed 2l of #1 → 0.5l runoff 25.08.25 FW8 – Fed 2l of #1 → 0.5l runoff 26.08.25 FW8 – Fed 2l of #1 at 75% → 0.5l runoff 27.08.25 FW8 – Fed 5l of #1 at 75% → 2l runoff 28.08.25 FW8 – Fed 5l of #1 at 50% → 2l runoff 29.08.25 FW8 – Fed 5l of #1 at 50% → 2l runoff 30.08.25 FW8 – Fed 5l of #1 → 2l runoff (*RUNOFF reused for tomato plants) 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 Nutrients in 30L #1 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 TriPart Micro: 10 → 15 → 20 → 30 → 40 → 50 → 30 → 20 → 10ml = 0.33 ml/L TriPart Grow: 0 ml = 0.00 ml/L FinalPartRipen: 60ml = 2.00 ml/L TriPart Bloom: 0 → 20 → 60 → 80 → 0ml = 0.00 ml/L GreenBuzz Bloom: 10 → 15 → 20 → 30 → 60 → 40 → 50 → 20 → 0 → 60 → 0ml = 0.00 ml/L Cal-Mag: 60 → 40 → 30 → 20ml = 0.67 ml/L Home-made FFJ/FPJ: 10 → 30 → 60 → 120 → 200ml = 6.67 ml/L pH Down: Citric acid (BuxXtrade) — adjust to ~pH 6.0 📦 TOTAL: 290 ml per 30 L 🔬 9.67 ml/L 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 ⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️ ✂️ Tools & equipment ✂️ ⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️ ✂️ 2× MarsHydro SP3000 ⚙️ MarsHydro 150mm ACF Ventilator ✂️ Trotec dehumidifier (big unit) ⚙️ Mini no-name dehumidifier ✂️ Kebab skewers (LST – stainless) ⚙️ Wire + roast skewers (LST assist) ✂️ Scissors (HST) ⚙️ Vacuum (for spills & cleanup) ✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️ --- 🍏🍪🌬️🍬🍏🍪🌬️🍬🍏🍪🌬️🍬 Apple Fritter (Kannabia Seeds) 🍏🍪🌬️🍬🍏🍪🌬️🍬🍏🍪🌬️🍬 Species: 50% Indica / 50% Sativa Genetics: Sour Apple × Animal Cookies THC: Up to 25% Effect: Euphoric, relaxing, creative Flavor: Sweet, fruity, pastry notes Flowering: 56–63 days Resistance: High Indoor yield: 450–500g/m² Outdoor yield: 600g/plant Structure: Strong, bushy, dense buds

Week 15 Day 99 (20/11/2020): Unfortunately did not have time today to take pictures or check them because have been quite busy. Day 100 (21/11/2020): Woow day 100 today, which seems a bit crazy but I think the girls just need another month and they will be ready for harvest. It has been a great grow so far and although 100 days seems like a lot, the girls have definitely come really far. I did notice that the leaves on the top of both of the girls are getting a bit more yellow and less of that deep green colour. After searching what could be the cause for the top leaves turning yellow, it seems that it is because they are too close to the lamp. They have grown super tall so the lamp is currently at its highest so unfortunately there is nothing we can do but hopefully it won’t affect them too negatively. Day 101 (22/11/2020)💧: Measured the pH of the girls today before watering and RHC1 was at 5.76 and RHC2 was at 5.92 which means it needs to be increased slightly. I wonder why it keeps dropping because apparently the BioBizz soil is supposed to maintain the pH pretty well but I guess these are big girls and they must be taking in more nutrients. So I watered them with the usual 1.5ml of BioGrow, 4.5ml of BioBloom, 1.5ml of TopMax. And on top of that I gave RHC1 0.75ml of pH+ to increase the pH by 0.5 points and gave RHC2 0.5ml of pH+ to increase it by roughly 0.3 points which should take them both to 6.2. The buds are definitely fattening up more and the trichomes are looking like lovely purple snow on the buds! Day 102 (23/11/2020): Not that many updates today, but they are doing well after the watering and some of the flowers at the very bottom that always kind of wilt on the day of watering are back up again. I should have thought of cutting them off before maybe... Day 103 (24/11/2020): Girls are looking beautiful, managed to get a close-up picture that shows how red the buds are quite well. I really need to look for my loupe because I want to see those trichomes closer up and see if it’s the trichomes or the actual buds that are red. The buds of the two girls do look quite different from each other though, definitely easy to tell them apart. Day 104 (25/11/2020)💧: Today I watered the girls with 1.5ml of BioGrow, 4.5ml of BioBloom and 1.5ml of TopMax . The lower leaves and buds of girl #1 are definitely not strong enough to hold themselves up just before the watering. I think also because the buds are taking up the most nutrients and towards the end of the 2 days it is not enough for the lower stems. So not sure what to do about these but I guess I can cut them off if they do not recover tomorrow. Day 105 (26/11/2020): Took some lovely videos of the girls today 😍 they are growing so big they should be ready in just a few more weeks I think.
