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 !

I’ve been so preoccupied with this plants beauty... that I haven’t cared to update. But here she is! Really proud of this first ever grow thus far. She drinks a gallon of water a day. Insane. so many white hairs.

This week I had a few days of rain, which caused a slight increase in humidity and temperature. Despite that, everything is going perfectly and the plant continues to develop without any issues 🌸💪

Week 14, Flower (Day 57 12/12) Riding straight into week 8 now so this is when I expect her to put most of her weight on which is hard to believe considering colars are already falling over. Still filling the res up and just letting her do her thing. Smells are incredible! She is definitely going 10weeks minimum not a orange trichome in site and fresh flowers popping up. No more signs of bananas and she is happy I put her into slightly more dark and raised the lights a little as well. Now it's just ride it out for the next couple weeks.

Weekly update on these three. One is pretty much done and is ready to chop this week where the other two aren't far behind. The dense tight buds are pungent as can be. Definitely one that flowers super fast it seemed like and not to hard to grow. All in all Happy Growing

Die erste echte Herbstwoche ist überstanden. Von 28 Grad und Sonne kam innerhalb 14h Temperatursturz auf 11 Grad und Dauerregen. Dann ein Tag Sonne mit 18grad. Alle sind gesund, zeigen keine Anzeichen von Schädlingen, Mehltau oder grauschimmel. Ich glaube, ich habe endlich geschafft, sie gesund über die Saison zu bringen 😍 sie sind kräftig gewachsen und selbst mit Regen vollgesogen buds ist kein Ast abgeknickt. Gebogen haben sich einige, da die Blüten immer fetter werden 😜 Larry und banana sind immernoch grün, trotz erster kühler Nächte. AK und Lemon neigen dazu, die Blätter nun violett einzufärben. Wunderschöner Anblick 👌ich Habe das Gefühl, dass das klappen könnte, sie halbwegs reif zu bekommen. Die Wettervorhersage ist Anlass zu vorsichtigem Optimismus 🙂16 Tage erstmal nicht unter 5 Grad . 🤞🤞 Es läuft erstaunlich gut ☺️ 👍 Bis nächste Woche ✌️

Soooo, nach langem Warten (ich bitte um Entschuldigung, es kam immer irgendwas dazwischen), nun die Ernte! Nachdem ich jetzt alle Sorten verkostet habe, kann ich euch nun mein Fazit präsentieren. Im Großen und Ganzen bin ich eigentlich ganz zufrieden mit dem Ergebnis, muss aber auch gestehen, dass ich bei der ein oder anderen Strain doch etwas mehr erwartet habe. Bei den nun folgenden Bewertungen möchte ich noch anmerken, dass sich diese rein auf den Outdoor-Anbau der jeweiligen Sorte und nur auf den einen bekannten Phäno beziehen. Man kann grundlegend behaupten, dass sich alle Sorten doch sehr solide geschlagen haben, und das bei diesem … naja, sagen wir mal wechselhaften Sommer. Allerdings merke ich einfach, dass sie lange nicht ihr volles Potenzial ausgeschöpft hatten, was ich immer etwas schade finde. Ich bin trotzdem froh, dieses Projekt durchgezogen zu haben, und gehe mit reichlich neuen Erkenntnissen sowie einem abwechslungsreichen Stash in die besinnliche Zeit. Was hat mich grundlegend bei den meisten Sorten gestört? Bei fast allen Sorten, mit Ausnahme der Hella Jelly und der Lemon Tree (wer hätt's gedacht), waren die Terps doch sehr flüchtig. Im Vape kamen sie wirklich gut zur Geltung, wenn man sie allerdings im Joint (pur, versteht sich) geraucht hatte, haben sie oft nach den ersten Zügen an Präsenz verloren, was wirklich schade ist. Dies ist aber wahrscheinlich auf die Anbaubedingungen zurückzuführen und soll den Breedern keinesfalls ihre Qualität absprechen. Wie schon in einem vorigen Kommentar erwähnt, haben sie einfach nicht ihr volles genetisches Potenzial erreichen können. Ich bin mir des Weiteren auch nicht sicher, ob ich beim nächsten Mal wieder auf die Dryferm-Bags setzen werde. Es war doch ein ziemliches Gefummel, bis man die Blüten ohne Kontakt zueinander in die Beutel verfrachtet hatte. Außerdem hat es meiner Meinung nach die Trocknungszeit eher verkürzt, obwohl ich mich an die Temperatur- und Luftfeuchtigkeitsrange gehalten hatte, was ich auch nicht unbedingt begrüße. Und zu guter Letzt sind sie auch echt nicht billig, wenn man bedenkt, dass ich pro Pflanze teilweise über 4 Beutel benötigt hatte (pro 3 Stk. ca. 25 Euro) und sie laut Hersteller nur dreimal verwendet werden sollten. Das ist doch auf Dauer ein ganz schönes Investment. Aber das sind nur meine 2 Cent zu dem Thema :). Nach und nach sollten jetzt hier die Erntereports eintrudeln. Ich hoffe, ich schaffe alles heute. Falls nein, seht es mir bitte nach. Falls ihr noch spezifische Fragen zu einer Sorte habt, lasst es mich einfach wissen, dann bekommt ihr noch eine ausführlichere Beschreibung. PS: Die Filmore-Slim musste ich leider fast komplett entsorgen. Sie hatte die festesten Blüten, die ich je bei einer Outdoorpflanze gesehen habe, was ihr leider zum Verhängnis geworden ist (durchgeschimmelt). Von ihr hatte ich leider keine rauchbaren Blüten. Von der Optik war sie auf jeden Fall ein Champion! Ich habe von allen Sorten Fresh Frozen in der Gefriertruhe, die ich in der kommenden Zeit wachsen möchte (auch von der Filmore Slim). Also kann ich sie hoffentlich als Konzentrat verkosten. Das soll es gewesen sein. Ich wünsche euch viel Spaß mit den folgenden Ernteberichten und eine ruhige, besinnliche Weihnachtszeit mit euren Liebsten! Wir hören uns dann hoffentlich im nächsten Jahr wieder, mit vielen neuen spannenden Projekten. Peace!

Plants recovering well …heat is causing some problems in the indica room otherwise all is well …1 more week till flush then 1 more week after that til harvest

Week 7 begins for Green Crack. She's bulking up, frosting up nicely but has a mild and hard to describe smell. Switched out big bud coco for overdrive. Thanks for stopping by, tune in next week for another episode 👽🌳🔥

Divine Seeds Auto V.2 Contest Auto Big Demon W4V4 6/29-7/5 6/29 2 liters water ph 6.1, ppm 242, 69.5F Wetting the outer rim of the pot. 7/2 2 liters ph water 6.44, ppm 222 68.5F Wetting the outer rim of the pot. I’m giving ph water for this grow unless deficiencies are noted since Supersoil is in my base mix and will be adding Green Sensation during flower, Big demon is one mass of close stacks. I determined she had 5 or 6 closely stacked nodes so I topped her and applied manuka honey to the wound. After topping she is 3.5 inches tall and very bushy. Come on stretch show me some node spacing. As aways, thank you all for stopping by, for the likes and most of all growers’ love and support. Stay green, growers love 💚🌿o I topped her. 💫Natrona💫

to be updated soon

Fastberry Start: 27/5 Harvest: 1/8 I grow her 100% organic She grows very fast. Since i'm in the sub equatorial country, she buds quite early. The stretching takes place quickly for more than 1 week(x2.5). Buds grow rapidly within 6 weeks. The last week was really difficult when it rained for a week, but fortunately there was no sign of mold. It takes more week to dry. 25.5g dry is a good result for an auto strain that grows outdoors. THANKS FOR WATCHING.

For the first 2 weeks the pot was weighed before watering. Into Substrate 10ml D1: D2: 5ml D3: keep moist D4: 10ml D5: keep moist D6: 13ml D7: put towel in tent for more humidity Lamp 70% 65

yeah I've been away for a while due to illness.. currently triple cheese Pineapple Chunk and red dragon are in ground waiting to put in gorilla zkittlz

Clone for harvest next week!!

Well the grow was very pleasant, she got amazing structure an look of the buds, very frosty and amazing smell...so thank you Mephisto genetics you did insane job. i have ordered few seed from Mephisto but they lost i guess(((coz i have not receive them. So thanks guys for support and helping me for this grow all GD Family,Luv you all!!! Peace

The plants look healthy, without any defects or anything like that. A smell is slowly starting to develop... I'm curious to see how much more volume they'll gain in the next few weeks.

Day 43: after watering it got bigger - the buds are getting bigger, the height of the plant increase aswell. Today I started seeing a bit of snow on the leaves? Day 44: watered with 1.5l Day 46: watered again with 2l Plant is getting sticky. And I finally saw some trichomes!!!! Day 49: Buds are getting bigger, one the main stem huge one is forming, but just right underneath are two side buds - a bit afraid of mold.. Right now hard to keep humidity under 55, doing a lot of defoliation almost daily. LST should have been better, got unfortunately uneven
