During week 4 (=flowering week 2) the 18 CANNALOPE HAZE plants from DNA-GENETICS grew like hell and started to develop their first white hairs (=female pistils of the plant). The speed in which the little white crowns appear is astounding to me, I LOVE IT! The lamps are now hung at the producer recommended distance of 22 cm (=LUMATEK) and 45 cm (=SANlight) and both run at 100% power (=no more dimming for now!). The difference between the left side (=Lumatek) and right side (=SANlight) can be seen clearly in the videos. The plants on the right under the Q6W-Gen. 2 LED-Lamps from SANlight have a darker, healthier green color and have produced VISIBLY MORE FLOWERS then the plants on the left side under the Lumatek PRO 600W. Lets see how this goes further next week...😎

Las Amaretto Tarmac se cosecharon esta semana, la novena 12/12h. Un olor muy muy intenso afrutado, es necesario la utilización de filtro de carbono.

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 !

The plants have grown very fast this week, easily doubling in size. I moved them closer to the light to 90 cm from 110cm. Watering as needed and I am keeping the soil surface moist with light watering twice a day. I have fed the plants twice this week. First with a half dosage humic + fulvic acids, microbial inoculant and Seagro. The second feeding was half dose Seagrow and Biobizz BioGrow with some CalMag and Silicon. I am preparing a compost tea with some added kelp meal, insect frass and worm castings for the next feeding before I start LST.

The plant grows very vigorously and relentlessly. He developed a large central top, which has an intoxicating scent of fruit. If you touch it, it's full of resin. Another week or two then it will be cut and hung, I gave the last dose of fertilizer knows now only water

Grow Report Week 11: The Continuation of the Flowering Phase Hello dear grow community, We are now in the second week of the flowering phase, and the developments are exciting. All the ladies have stretched further and received their final lollipopping today. A little defoliation was also carried out to direct more light onto the tops. The Frosty Nightmare Challenge At the beginning of the week, there was a small problem with the Frosty Nightmare, but it seems not to be spreading further and was removed. I am relieved that we have it under control. Space Filling, Temperature Control, and Fertilization Scheme The area to be illuminated is now completely filled. The temperatures remain constant at 25°C during the day and 22°C at night. Relative humidity below 50 percent. The Biobizz fertilization scheme is still being followed 100%, although I have raised the pH value a bit to support the Cal/Mag uptake. Bud Development and Anticipation I am satisfied with all the plants; their bud development is promising. The next 2-3 weeks will surely be very interesting. Banana, Do-Si-Dos, Gorilla Zkittlez, Frosty Nightmare, Pink Rozay, and Girl Scout Cookies can now show what they are made of. I look forward to sharing the progress with you. Thank you for stopping by, and see you next time! 😊

This week I did a single topping at the 5th node. Along with this I applied low stress training and tucking to expose the new growth.

So far it seems to be fine even if the high humidity worries me even if the temperatures are still high then they have stopped growing and will finally focus on the flowers and slowly we recover these small deficiencies

Yesterday I discovered that, in order to change my timer, I didn't put the clock back onto it. Now they had 3 hours more light on the third day of flowering. Exactly the kind of oopsies this grow really doesn't need. But it happened and all back on a normal schedule, but I hope the OHS en GG4 aren't affected by it too much... One accidental re-vegging is more than enough for a year. Also, these sensitive strains can hermie on me for lesser reasons so from now on I'll be checking for male signs daily. The XTraKush is performing as advertised, with enormous stretch, these plants can go 10 ft up according to the breeder. So I'm tying them down and managing this to fill out the space. With all the stuff going on, this 'underdog' strain might even prove most resilient, when all is said and done. They seem to respond really well to the SP-3000 light and If you are in the market for a new light, consider this option from Mars Hydro. Thank you @MarsHydroLED for letting me try it, it is a dream of a light. I compared it to my old light again and PAR values are not even in the same ballpark. Thank you for checking my diary and taking the time to read my adventures! Hug Bud

Das wars. :) Habe nun geerntet und die Pflanzen 8 Tage in der Hazelbox getrocknet. Ich habe mit den Titan Samen am 5. Oktober (Seeding) angefangen und bin praktisch am 1. Januar mit Trocknung fertig. Das ist wirklich super schnell. Die Pflanzen hatten zum Schluss ca. 60-65 cm Höhe. Die Pflanzen hatten richtig, richtig viele Blätter, was man auch beim Schneiden nochmal gemerkt hat. ;) Ich habe getrocknet 176 Gramm aus den 3 Pflanzen insgesamt. Die Buds sind richtig fest und klebrig. Es riecht sehr süßlich (bisschen in eine Bubble Gum Richtung) und die Buds glitzern sehr stark. Eine tolle Genetik. Für diesen Grow habe ich wenig Zeit und Arbeit reingesteckt. Die Erde ist vorgedüngt, das Bewässerungssystem funktioniert, die Box macht die Programme automatisch. Ich musste also nur maximal 2 mal die Woche den Tank auffüllen und ein bisschen extra gießen. Kaum Arbeit, aber ein echt solides Ergebnis in der kurzen Zeit auf so kleinen Pflanzen 

Didn't stretch as much as she might have done which suits me. On target for plenty of compact buds. Taking the Shogun coco nutrient range like a champ. Only issue I've had is having to defoliate more times than I'd like.

All pictures were taken on day 37 She is starting to show first signs of flowering I tied her down with a metal hook to achieve better light penetration and added one hook for stability I will start feeding nutrients soon

So she got the chop 2 weeks prior to what I wanted, but I did not lollipop enough doing this Scrog and suffered high humidity, lack of airflow and as a result lost 4 tops... Out of 16 big ones. But I have harvest, wet trimmed and left to hang dry in a room on clothes drier. Room circulation fan on low, and temp is 22c with 51% humidity. Aiming for a 10day dry it maybe sooner. Then we will smoke test and cure then re test 🙌💚 Thank you all for following along this LONG and heartbreaking breaking Journey
