The Amherst Sour diesel may have root damage as it's roots spent the first two weeks underwater bearing the brunt of other mistakes along the way. Growth is slow even though the plant is responsive. The few new roots that show are almost translucent. This Blueberry Headband was in soil just 6 hours ago and now that I know what I'm doing, Should adapt quickly as it's barely noticed the transplant. The other BHB (BHB1) is looking awesome! New feathery white roots! Tremendous growth and vigour! The other BHB (BHB2) will have to catchup. Have a new DIY cloner. Will see what she does. Trial run. So far, so good! There is absolutely nothing in soil anymore!

Even in the version worked with main lining and sent into flowering a little later, Zamnesia's Tangerine Dream remains one of the fastest plants to flower and is surprising because it is the most solid flower of all, it is a boulder, stone, pure marble. ** We remind all users that we grow two plants per variety, one worked with techniques and the other left to grow freely and beautifully to preserve its speed and the classic Christmas tree shape in height. Below in this diary we have the Main lining plant. Description // This plant had a fast flowering like its sister left to go without techniques. The phenotype is practically identical, solid flower, excellent resin production even in the great heat, structure of the super thick ones that drive me crazy. The smell is always that of mandarin while it is peeled perfectly in line with that declared I imagine the magnificent taste. Why? I tasted the hash that remained on my gloves and I was going crazy. For citrus lovers who are a bit tired of the forced lemon scent. Trichomes and maturation // We looked carefully under the 10x microscope (and 10x x 1.6) and noticed a good percentage of milky/clumpy trichomes, still many transparent but also many golden amber. It is mainly sativa, but only 60/40, so guys, if we want to maintain a more sativa effect, we need to harvest with a majority of cloudy/milky trichomes if we want a more indica effect, remembering that THC oxidizes too much, amber is the right color. I use it during the day and therefore I look for a more sativa effect when the plant is sativa. Fertilizers and soil // We used the Plagron range of organic nutrients the whole time, all the recommended additives and the Pro Mix soil, unfertilized and organic.

Adding taken pictures in retrospective

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 !

16 days of slow drying each plant with the environment controlled inside the tent with 2 meters. I have two fans on, pointing at the floor to circulate the air temps - 20 - 23 º humid - 50- 60 %

Every week I watch my girls grow into beautiful budding trees only difference is now she in flowering I take her outside to absorb some of the beautiful sunshine and she's loving every bit of it. I let her stay outside for 8 hours in nature then back inside for another 8 hours of led full spectrum and turn out my lights for another 8 hr she's an Auto so she loving every minute of this ...... this is the results ⬆️

I lowered the temperature by opening the window in my growing room for a few hours at night. I increased the amount of fertilizer to the suggested amount from Biobizz. I also cut off a few "buds" and leafs. Did some LST and bend some branches like crazy. I try to get a very even cannabis-plant with an even hight. Update 07.05: I tried to do some lollipoping. Hope that the main-buds will now get more energy. If nothing changes in a few days, I will start to go on with trimming. I decided to cut off the lowest branches from the tribe. It was a tough decision, but I think it was the right one.

Great week

On February 6th, I transplanted clone into a 7 gallon fabric pot. I put 70 cups of Ocean Forest in, then placed clone (still in pot), in the center of 7 gallon fabric pot, then filled the rest of the pot up with Happy Frog. Before I transplanted, I sprinkled Great White in transplant area.

My good friend convinced me that trimming and training are paramount, so I've started with slowly defoliating the Creme de la Chems to try and get to lollipop status. They're just starting to flower, so I figured I could get away with a more aggressive approach. Because I failed to train these girls early, I'm stuck dealing with a little rain forest. What I've tried to do is trace each flower topped stalk up from the base, and trim away from the bottom up. 1/3 of the way up per day. I've now got a thick canopy, and I've been trying to just use leaf tucking and manual manipulation every few hours in order to keep the different height flowering sites in direct light. These ladies have really been thriving, and it's been such a joy to watch them grow! I like having two plants in one net pot letting them grow wild, but I think in my next grow I'll keep it to one per pot and train better from the start. As for the Super Orange Haze ... not as good. I attempted to pull the main branch over to train her to some empty space, but I was too aggressive and ended up popping her head off :(. First grow, first disaster. I took the head and stripped her/coated in clonex and pushed her into some potting soil just to see what would happen. There hasn't been enough foliage to really make me want to do any trimming, I've just tried to tie the stalks off to train them apart. I'm really sad about my mistake decapitation, but she seems to be doing well still. She's probably week 2 of flower based on others' journals. I changed the water midway through the week (which is when the videos were taken). I drained most of the water out, but roots prevented me from getting the last few gallons. When I refilled the res with RO, I measured the PPM at around 200. I have to assume that remaining nutrient was completely unbalanced leftovers, so feeding will have to just have to be experimental. My approach has been to give around 1:1 Gro vs Bloom and Micro every 2-3 days when I refill with RO. I want to build my PPM up to 1000, but slowly so that I can detect if I hit a ceiling first. It's hard to measure how much food is in the water based on PPM. CalMag is what drives it mostly, so I've been using CalMag as a sort of measuring stick. I keep the CalMag pegged to the Bloom food, but I know it's only good for initial dosing. I can't assume the plants are eating CalMag in the same proportion as anything else :(. If anyone has a line on cheap lab testing ... hit me up. I'd love to be able to test a few hundred samples at a time for NPK and trace so that I can tell (even if post facto) what was going on.

In flush now for a couple of weeks and then I’ll start to harvest. They all really stink 🤩

Really enjoyed growing this strain really easy with no issues whatsoever on the way now the best part enjoying the stone ✌️🏻👍🏻

Day 58, 7th of November 2020: The 6th day since the lamp switched to be 12/12... I raised up the nutrition intake as it can be seen above only the BioBizz family 2ml/l and removed some LST because the plant remains in shape or just set a bit but nothing significant.... Amazing really really beautiful lady this one....strech is on the way..... 😅 Nice smell Inreally like this strong stable genetics. Nothing really to report there is crazy 2-3 weeks from now ;) ;)

Week #16 GSC By KANNABIA SEEDS Week #5 Flower This week half way through the flower stage. You can really see the trichomes and orange color in the buds to the purple contrast in the plant this week. She looking outstanding has smaller really tight dense buds with a aroma that's amazing!! Thank you for stopping by and taking a look!!

The lady is growing slowly. The balcony location is not the best spot. A few more sun hours, would be better. That's life :D. The Flower time starts. In the main the first buds are visible. LST goes on. A big thanks to bud trainers, your clips working well. Day 27 Photoshooting
