Chance of a Lifetime Greenhouse Seeds Wonder Pie Week five 5th June 2020 Welcome back to my Wonder pie Diary for the Greenhouse Seeds Win a trip to amsterdam Contest. It's been a busy week for the three plants. I waited until aprox mid week (Tuesday 2nd June) to begin some LST And each plant proved to be tricky in one way or another. Plant 1 has very flexible branches that I needed to use tent pegs on to hold down each branch I wanted to train. Plant 2 is very bushy and has quite a few side branches happening so I managed to tie down atleast 6 with some soft wire and left the others to grow a bit longer before I try more LST. Plant 3 was the trickiest because the branches are very stiff and not very willing to bend . I found this out by accidently snapping a branch off. I managed to tie a few down but have the two main branches still growing vertically for the time being. (Wed 3rd June ) Not touching them today and will water tomorrow (Thurs 4th June) Watered each plant with 2 Litres of Water (Friday 5th June) Today I am very happy with the way they responded to the LST all three plants have really bounced back well and look super happy. I have been playing around with a homemade CO2 producer which is very easy to make with household items. Basically I re-used a 1.5l empty water bottle as the container. Then I simply punched a small hole in the lid for the CO2 gas to escape. I then added aprox 7-10 teaspoons of Sugar & half filled it with nice warm water (not too hot) and let the sugar dissolve. Then I added 3 teaspoons of Bakers Yeast and gently shook it all up before placing the lid with the hole in it back on the bottle and placing it inside the Grow tent. The principle of this is that the yeast and sugar react with each other to start "Fermenting" which causes the release of gasses which are made up of CO2. Now whether or not this does anything to make the plants grow any faster is conjecture on my part but I have noticed that the plants look very healthy and growth has been more this week than previous weeks so who knows????? It's worth a try if you have the time and inclination to try it. Well that brings me to the end of this weeks Wonder Pie update. Thankyou very much for taking the time to Read it, I truly do appreciate the kind words and likes etc and I shall be back next week with another. 👍

This Girl has caught up to her sisters. And is looking great. We need some fast growth. So I may have to clean under her skirt, so as to give her some extra momentum skywards. Funny thing is later down the road I will be in a battle to keep her low.

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 !

Dynamics starts to gain momentum Slightly straightened, poured compote With a metal stick кemoved all the shoots from the branches there is no point wasting resources on them You can speed up the filling of the pot from the top by lowering the light, but then the root will not have time to fill the pot, so just wait I refresh the bend every day Сut the side light to the maximum, turned off the sink, it's too cold at night at the end of the week, work began on preparing for the replacement by the middle row

Today we had a lollipopping session with the "little one". I've had to give her enriched water regularly the last few days because she's been so thirsty. I'm really curious to see how she handles the training.

DAY 29: Wooohoo, it is that exciting time when we notice more of the little white hairs poking up around the bracts and the tips take on a bursting opening of growth appearance. The main 2 in flower are the Northern lights #1 and Grandaddys mimosa. Both have started to stretch and will benefit from the planned l.s.t to keep them in their best light . Northern lights has taken a very healthy S-bend in her stem as she wanted to go tall from the beginning. Her growth rate has been excellent under the light and I can see her stretching will certainly have me pushing the lights footprint limits. Grandaddys mimosa has also added a nice bit of height at around 12 inches now. A good start for stretching too. She has space and I have been removing the larfy lower growth from rhem all to not waste energy. She is a little more advanced in flower then the northern light but very close. Both of the Gorilla cookies are starting to join the party now and look like they are still in veg and pushing tips up for flowering but no signs of bract hairs yet so they will hopefully match the size of the other 2 soon enough. They are a bushier appearance than the other 2 strains so I will have to make sure they dont get overgrown by their canopies after the stretch periods. The mutant Northern lights has still remained small and hopeful but I wont be holding out too.much hope on her. I contacted Fast buds and used their after sales service to discuss the failed seeds. They were excellent and only needed a few details of purchase and a couple of pics with some info on what happened and they have now replaced the 3 that I lost. Well done for keeping true to your word @fastbuds . THE LIGHT What can I say about this amazing piece of tech. A small unit, solidly made and delivering a punch way better than I honestly expected. I thought it was going to be ok to sprout them and bring them up together then remove most of them to grow with my other lights while I flowered a single plant under it. Seeing how bloody capable it is , has thrown that plan out of the window altogether...... I plan now to grow all 4 main plants to harvest and really push the limits of this sunshine in a shade. For 150w of power , it is having no problems providing plenty of par for all of the girls to max their photosynthesis needs. All of them are in homemade super soil and the lights are their main input from my end so something is keeping them very happy indeed. In a box or cupboard , this light could work wonders on a single plant or couple of trained but I feel this would be hiding a lot of potential and underestimating its abilities. A very happy grow here . Let's see how it progresses. Nice work Viparspectra. Until next time. Be safe and well.

THe little i smoked was great for pain. Got crazy munchies afterwards. Thumbs up!

FBT2402 had a ph issue, and I got some spots on the leaves. I did not have her solution strong enough, and it jumped up on me. It's fixed now, and stable. Beside that she is starting to stack her colas. Hopefully I get a few ounces from her.

🌱 Week 16 Update (Veg) The girls are still in veg and looking stronger than ever 💪🌿🍃. Canopy is wide, lush, and filling in beautifully 🌳✨ with steady growth 📈. Thrip battle is almost won

Hey Growers. The cup was misted and a 350ml waterfall off the top of a solo cup to encourage the inoculation of the Gaia green and the first roots to search easily for water. May be bullshit but I find it helps to not drown a seedling. 🤷‍♂️🏻 I’m dialing in my XS2000 trying to keep them as low and stacked as possible bc she’s a tall strain and my tent is a 5ft. I’ll probably have to do my poor man’s light mover technique again but I have no problem with that and the plants loved one in and one out of direct light. Happy Growing 🌱

Day 27 of flower Grows under TSW 2000 by @polasekplants

Cream Caramel took more time to finish the cycle than other strains in the room. But flowers are well developed, sticky and thick. A bigger pot is necessary for having a better yield but the weed look strong and good.

Green papaya from super sativa seeds club looking good at week 6, we will continue with some more nutrients from xpert nutrients this week and after that only water. The buds are showing quite some thc levels and have an amazing sweet smell. Very happy with this tester for sure!

Cosmic Noodles 🙂 | Week 13 Still fading, still feeding, still building Week 13 from seed. Week 9 of flower. And somehow, still not finished. At this point, there is not much left to do — and that is exactly the point. This is the part of the run where patience becomes the whole job. The structure is set. The flowers are built. The room is stable. The plant has already told us what she is. Now we wait, we watch, and we let her finish. And she is still finishing. ⸻ How we got here This has been another full 12/12 from seed run from day one. No veg reset, no extended shaping, no wasted time — just direct expression from seed to flower under the same cycle all the way through. Week by week, Cosmic Noodles built exactly the kind of structure these runs are so good at showing: clean vertical movement, strong branching, long stacked tops, and a very honest expression from start to finish. No tricks. No extra recovery windows. No artificial delays. Just genetics, environment, consistency, and time. Now in week 13 from seed and week 9 of flower, she is exactly where late flower should be: fading, swelling, ripening, and slowly closing the loop. ⸻ Nothing changed — and that is a good thing This week looks almost identical on paper. Same room. Same temperatures. Same humidity. Same hand watering. Same low input. Same stable environment. And at this stage, that is exactly what you want. No sudden changes. No chasing numbers. No late flower panic. No unnecessary corrections. The plant is still drinking. Still feeding from herself. Still moving. Still adding weight. That matters more than any adjustment would. Late flower is not the time to start experimenting. It is the time to stay out of the way and pay attention. ⸻ Fading exactly how she should The leaves are fading more now, and that is expected. Color is leaving the fans. The plant is consuming what she stored. The green is slowly pulling back. And the whole plant is starting to look like it understands the assignment. This is not decline. This is finish. She is doing exactly what a healthy late flower plant should do — slowly cannibalizing reserves, pushing energy into the flowers, and putting everything that is left into the final swell. And despite that fade, she is still building. That is the important part. She is not fading because she stopped. She is fading because she is finishing. Big difference. ⸻ Still swelling, still stacking weight Even now, she is still putting on mass. Not explosive growth. Not dramatic change. Just steady late pressure. The flowers are denser. The stacks are tighter. The tops are heavier. The whole plant feels more compact every few days. And that main cola is ridiculous. At this point it is less “main top” and more “forearm.” Long, thick, dense, and still tightening. The rest of the plant follows the same pattern — not oversized in height, but packed, compact, and much heavier than she looks at first glance. This is the kind of late flower weight that sneaks up quietly and then suddenly feels very real when you touch the branches. ⸻ Trichomes are moving, but not there yet This week is still a waiting game. Trichomes are changing, but not finished. Still mostly clear. Some starting to turn cloudy. Almost no amber worth talking about yet. A few here and there, but nothing meaningful. The hairs are telling a similar story. Still plenty of white, though they are clearly beginning to shift. That usually says the same thing the resin is saying: Close. But not yet. She is moving in the right direction, just not on our schedule. And that is fine. ⸻ Quiet week, sharp eyes This week is mostly observation. No pushing. No chasing. No guessing. Just keeping everything clean, steady, and under control. Hand watering continues. Inputs stay simple. Only water and Pure Zym. Root zone stays active. Plant stays supported. Environment stays stable. And eyes stay sharp. This is the stage where the work is mostly watching: checking density checking airflow checking weak spots checking for rot checking for mold checking for signs of stress So far: nothing. No bud rot. No visible issues. No real concerns. No surprises. Exactly how we want it. ⸻ What to expect next week Honestly? More of the same — and that is good news. More fade. More density. More cloudy heads. Less clear resin. More ripening. More signs that the window is finally opening. Will next week be harvest? Maybe. Maybe not. That is still up to her. At this point we are close enough to start thinking about the finish, but still patient enough not to force it. And late flower always rewards patience more than impatience. So next week we watch again. And if she says she is ready, we listen. ⸻ Closing thoughts Week 13 from seed. Week 9 flower. Still standing. Still drinking. Still swelling. Still building. And still not done. Exactly the kind of problem worth having. Big love to everyone following along. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron for the support. To GrowDiaries for the platform. To the growers in the comments. To the long-time followers. To the OGs. To the new ones. To the quiet ones watching. To the supporters. To the skeptics. To the lovers and the haters alike. If you stopped here for even a minute, you are part of the run. Good energy to all of you.

Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.
