Grow is done, extremely happy with the results. 5 day rinse is next.

🌱 Godfather OG (Zamnesia) | Pheno B | Week 4 Nine Fingers of Perfection If her sister impressed me this week, Pheno B absolutely stole the spotlight. This is exactly why I love documenting each phenotype individually. Two plants, grown from the same pack of seeds, living in the same room, drinking the same nutrients, receiving the same light and environmental conditions… yet expressing themselves in completely different ways. And this lady decided to make an entrance. The first thing that catches my eye isn’t her height or even her branching… It’s those magnificent nine-finger fan leaves. Large, perfectly formed, beautifully symmetrical, and reaching toward the light like solar panels engineered by nature itself. Every time I walk into the room, I find myself stopping for a second just to admire them. Sometimes the simplest details become the most beautiful part of the journey. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Development Week four has been all about momentum. The root system is clearly well established now, allowing the plant to shift its energy into vigorous vegetative growth. Every branch is becoming thicker, every internode stronger, and the overall structure feels incredibly balanced. Compared to last week, she’s noticeably fuller while still maintaining excellent spacing between growth sites. The canopy is beginning to spread naturally, making future training easier with every passing day. One characteristic that really stands out is her calmness. She simply looks comfortable. No unnecessary stretching. No signs of stress. No complaints. Just healthy, steady growth. ⸻ 🌿 Those Incredible Nine-Finger Leaves I have to dedicate a section to these because… honestly… they deserve it. Those enormous nine-finger fan leaves are simply gorgeous. Wide blades. Perfect symmetry. Strong petioles. Beautiful texture. Deep, healthy green colour. Each leaf is functioning like a giant solar panel, collecting every possible photon from the Future of Grow LEDs and converting it into energy for explosive growth. They’re not just beautiful to look at—they’re a fantastic indication that the plant is photosynthesizing efficiently and building the energy reserves she’ll need once flowering really begins. Sometimes growers become obsessed with removing leaves too early. Personally, I look at leaves like these and think… “Why would I remove one of the plant’s biggest energy factories?” For now, they’re staying exactly where nature intended. ⸻ 🌱 Low Stress Training & Leaf Tucking Training continues to remain gentle and patient. Instead of heavy manipulation, I’m allowing the plant to dictate the pace while simply guiding branches into better positions using Low Stress Training. Large fan leaves are carefully tucked whenever necessary, exposing developing shoots underneath without sacrificing photosynthetic capacity. It’s amazing how quickly the lower branches respond once they receive just a little more light. Each adjustment is small, but together they slowly create a flatter, more productive canopy that should pay dividends later in flower. Sometimes less really is more. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Program The feeding schedule remains exactly where the plant wants it. Current solution: • Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L • Power Roots — 1 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L Adjusted to: * pH 6.1 * EC 1.35 mS/cm The plant continues responding beautifully, with healthy new growth appearing daily and no indication that any adjustments are needed. When the leaves tell you they’re happy, the smartest decision is often to simply keep doing what you’re doing. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Conditions The room continues running remarkably well considering the outside temperatures. Current environment: • Day temperature: 33°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 63% • CO₂: 639 ppm • Solution temperature: 26°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C Although daytime temperatures remain relatively high, stable irrigation, consistent humidity, healthy root development and continuous airflow are allowing the entire room to thrive. It’s another reminder that plants respond to the complete environment, not just a single number on a thermometer. ⸻ 🔭 Looking Forward Over the coming week I’ll continue opening the canopy through gentle leaf tucking while allowing those side branches to establish themselves before the flowering stretch begins. If she continues growing with this kind of balance and vigour, I expect a beautifully structured plant with excellent light penetration and multiple strong flowering sites. And if those nine-finger leaves are any indication… She’s only just getting started. ⸻ 🚀 The 12/12 From Seed Adventure Every week this experiment becomes more interesting. Growing directly under a 12/12 light schedule from seed removes many of the variables associated with long vegetative periods and allows each genotype to reveal its natural behaviour much earlier. Some plants stretch. Some remain compact. Some develop incredible branching. And then you find a phenotype like this one that immediately captures your attention with extraordinary foliage. That’s exactly why I wanted to document every phenotype separately. No two plants tell the same story, even when every variable around them remains identical. For me, that’s where the real magic of growing begins. ⸻ 🙏 Thank You As always, a heartfelt thank you to everyone following this adventure. Whether you’ve been here since the very beginning, discovered the diary recently, leave encouraging comments, ask questions, share advice, or simply enjoy watching these plants evolve each week… thank you. Every visit, every conversation, and every bit of support helps make this project even more rewarding. I’d also like to thank the GrowDiaries community and platform for giving growers from around the world a place to document, learn, and inspire one another. Special thanks to the amazing companies helping bring this project to life: 🌱 Zamnesia — for providing the outstanding Godfather OG genetics. 💜 Plagron — for the reliable nutrition that keeps these plants thriving from week to week. 💡 Future of Grow — for delivering the powerful lighting that fuels every stage of development. And finally… Thank you for joining me on this 8×8 journey. Every phenotype teaches us something new, and sharing those lessons with this community is one of the most rewarding parts of the entire experience. Until next week’s update… Growers Love and keep growing, keep learning, and never stop appreciating the little details—sometimes they have nine perfect fingers. 🌿💚

This week I pruned and defoliated heavy. Removed every fan leaf and removed everything before the scrog. I didn't get as horizontal as I would have liked but I'm hopeful I won't burn tops bcuz I'm close, lucky I have the light rail moving the light atotal of 3 feet back and forth allowing me to use more intense like but in spurts. Also the co2 bag and co2 bucket really seem to be helping. Topdressed with endgame and loaded up with basilus, activated em1, orca, great white, king crab, mammoth p, ohn, yucca, alow flakes, count powder, root wise poder and enzymes. Also weekly to every other week I make compost tea from boogie brew. All my water is treated with drops of balance and I also collect and use rainwater. I have an irrometer and run from 10 to 15 kps

she has a 10% amber has a pine smell. earth ... a nice smell .... with many milky trichomes most of them ... so I'll give you both 1 or 2 weeks for your process ... just wait... pak 2 apparently the other one was hermaphrodite .. only 3 branches were.seeded and they gave me seeds ...

She is getting fat! What a great plant she is - again, little to no deficiencies, other than some light burn but I could not complain to have such strong genetics for my first ever grow! Trichomes are not too cloudy, so still a while to go but what an AUTO!

Aaaaaargh :( Was trying another bloom booster this time and overlooked the fact, that the PK proportion was just too high at this stage for my nutrient solution to work well for the plant. I immediately changed the NS, but it took me a day to notice. Should have not only scaled the PK in the new NS, but the whole Ec for the better.

Continued with the ripen only this week. Going to water with it one last time that would be 10 days using the ripen. Going to start the flush with canna flush! The blueberry has started fading out nicely. The smell coming from these plants are amazing. Can't wait to chop the girls down. My anxiety is going crazy wait on this girls. Been keeping my eyes on the trichomes. Peace growmies thanks for taking the time to look at my diary. 😁🌱

Week 6 Veg Report – Runtz We Meet Again! Another week, another step forward in our Eternity Grow Cup 2025 journey, and oh boy, do we have a lot to unpack! These Runtz girls are showing their potential, and we’re dialing in every little detail to ensure they thrive. Let’s dive deep into everything that happened this week! Cal-Mag Deficiency Adjustment – Pheno #5’s Special Needs This week started with a close inspection of our phenos, and we noticed that Pheno #5 was showing early signs of a calcium/magnesium deficiency. Whether it was slightly off VPD levels or this particular plant being more demanding, we decided to correct it by increasing the dose of RO Water Conditioner. Now, while this isn’t a direct substitute for Cal-Mag, it does contain trace amounts that can help stabilize the situation. 🔬 Understanding Cal-Mag Deficiency: Calcium and magnesium are essential secondary nutrients. Calcium strengthens cell walls, preventing issues like tip burn and weak stems, while magnesium plays a critical role in chlorophyll production, allowing plants to efficiently absorb light energy. 💡 Signs of Deficiency: • Yellowing between veins (Magnesium) • Rust spots on leaves (Calcium) • Slow growth and weak stems ⚡ How We Address It: • Slightly increasing RO Water Conditioner to see if trace minerals help • Keeping an eye on overall nutrient uptake to ensure no lockout • Monitoring VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) closely to optimize nutrient absorption Let’s see how she reacts next week! Branching Development – Pheno #2 Leading the Race All five phenos are thriving, but Pheno #2 is showing the most aggressive branching, pushing outward faster than her sisters. However, overall, we’re seeing very uniform growth, which speaks volumes about the stability of these genetics. 🌱 What is Branching & Why It Matters? Branching is the plant’s way of expanding its canopy, increasing surface area for photosynthesis, and maximizing potential bud sites. Well-structured branches allow better airflow, light penetration, and more even growth—key for a successful high-yield harvest. ⚖️ Topping vs. Leaf Bending – The Training Choice Instead of topping, I’ve decided to go with leaf bending for now. This method allows for gentle manipulation of the plant’s growth without causing major stress. Once we introduce the SCROG (Screen of Green) net, this training will help maximize the canopy spread. Moving to the TrolMaster Ecosystem – A Game Changer Big move this week—our Runtz girls officially transitioned into the TrolMaster Ecosystem, and let me tell you, they are absolutely loving it! Under the ThinkGrow Model 1 LEDs, they’re thriving, leaves praying upward, soaking in that optimized spectrum. 💡 ThinkGrow Model 1 LEDs – Why They Work • PPFD of ~400 µmol/m²/s at their level, running only on Channel One • Full-spectrum lighting tailored for optimal vegetative growth • Passive cooling design, keeping temps stable while saving energy Environmental Conditions (Measured on the TrolMaster Tent-X and the AMP-3) • Temp Max: 26.6°C | Min: 16.2°C • RH Max: 77% | Min: 52% • VPD Max: 1.65 kPa | Min: 0.43 kPa • Solution pH: 5.8 • EC: 0.96 • Water Temp: 16.3°C Why These Numbers Matter: • Keeping VPD in check ensures efficient nutrient uptake • pH and EC levels fine-tuned for maximum root absorption • Water temp stable to avoid root shock and slow growth Autopot System Prep – Getting Ready for the Next Phase The week wraps up with us cleaning and preparing the Autopots for their next phase. These self-watering systems will allow the Runtz girls to access water and nutrients at their own pace, optimizing growth as we head into pre-flower soon!

Today we start week 8 from seed 🤙🏽 She's fattin up those buds and I am courious how she'll end Up until Harvest. Stay tuned 🤙🏽

I (pre-moistened) worked in 2.5 gallons of de-chlorinated tap water, with my fingers into this high-porosity soilless growing medium. This variant is very dry, and seems to reject water, until moistened(3cu ft compressed, Agro a5-hp from local nursery). Even after the 2.5 gallons of water was worked in (with no runoff), there was still a dry patch at the bottom of the pot.. I figured it would start to absorb from the wet medium on top, over time. It is now Day 10, and the moistened medium never needed to be watered since day 1. The medium is almost dry enough to be watered (see final picture). Maybe one or two more days. I will poke/scratch the soil daily, to ensure that I wait long enough, to not over-water.

She is doing lovely She has been grown under the amazing powerfull xs2000 by viparspectra and if you decide to order at viparspectra feel free to use the code SILKY and get Some discount https://www.viparspectra.com/?aff=435&utm_source=affiliate

Monday It’s beginning of week 4 and they are doing pretty well. The main stems are hard and strong and it’s impossible to bend them at that point. I am practicing a very light hand LST everyday like I am showing in the video. Tuesday Watering for both of them , you can follow the (simple) process in the videos. The plants are doing great except for a little issue on one of them that I will show you tomorrow. Topping or not ? May be beneficial so I’m about to do it. Fiming maybe ? Thursday Topping on video ! Simple method

Getting down to the final week, will cut in a week if all looks right.

Attention to detail

Week 3 males developing right on time! Pollen will be dispersing soon. So now trying to nail down who daddy was? Week 3 day 1 males looking very nice, no sign of either one showing female flowers( no hermaphrodite/ true male) but I will stress them more after reveg for severe stress test. For final results. Looks like I forgot to feed mom! Shit! But I did not.I used bio tone starter 5-1-1 by Espoma gonna feed in am. With tomato tone with myco 3-4-6 it's all I got and organic to boot 👍 Last grow with Captains cake went to 11 weeks 2 - 3 applications should get me to finish line. No flush should be needed, it's feeding the seeds growth. Looking at 07/01/2018 harvest. Fingers crossed! 05/05/2018 First burst of male pollen is flying in the air, gonna try to get video of it as I shake the males. I am brewing tea with worm castings unsulphured molasses,topped off with protilizer immediately after brewing it. Give them a little love (Tea) while they are making seeds👊

Very good strain, stretch 800x, baked af, no couch lock

Feb 18: addendum. Just a note to mention that although the baby bud sites are a plenty, Overall growth isn’t as dramatic as I have seen. I have been pruning fairly regularly through the first few weeks of flowering to expose light to the baby buds below, which is working for sure as they are getting bigger. No trichomes tho on the leaves - or anywhere to be seen. This is different from my last photo grow, a NL #5. Feb 14: Valentine’s Day so just a quick note Things are holding steady - bud sites a plenty! I think I fucked up the weeks. It hasn’t been 4 weeks
