🌱 Eternity Grow Cup: Week 2 Veg Report – Building the Foundation 🌟 First, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Grow Diaries, this amazing community, and all the sponsors making this journey so special: Aptus Holland, Pro-Mix Soil, TrolMaster, ThinkGrow LED, Future of Grow LED, and CannaKan. And a special shoutout to Zamnesia and Plagron for their incredible support with seeds and nutrients for this run. This wouldn’t be possible without all of you—thank you for inspiring us to put our best into this grow! 💚 Growth Update: Small but Mighty As Week 2 wraps up, the Zamnesia Runtz are still small, but they’re growing beautifully. • Leaf Development: • The first true leaves are now fully visible, and the second pair is starting to emerge on the horizon. Seeing those signs of life and progress fills me with hope and excitement. • Nutrient Introduction: • This week marked the beginning of feeding, laying the foundation for strong, vigorous growth in the weeks ahead. Current Setup • Environment: • Temps are holding at 20°C, with RH at 60%—a comfortable range for young plants. • The heat mat under the pots is maintaining an optimal root-zone temperature, keeping them cozy despite cooler room conditions. • Location: • Still growing alongside their sisters in the 4x8 tent but will soon transition into the full TrolMaster ecosystem, where precision and control will take things to the next level. Nutrient Spotlight: Starting Strong with Aptus Holland I’ve chosen to introduce the Aptus Holland lineup this week. These nutrients are carefully formulated to support plants through every stage of their growth cycle, and here’s what I’m using: 1. Aptus Regulator (0.15ml/L) • What it is: A silicon-based additive that helps plants regulate stress and environmental challenges. • Benefits: • Strengthens cell walls, leading to thicker stems and stronger leaves. • Increases stress tolerance, particularly against heat, cold, and light fluctuations. • Improves nutrient uptake, ensuring plants get the most out of their feedings. • Why now: At this early stage, Regulator gives the plants a strong foundation to handle the cooler temps and build resilience as they grow. 2. RO Water Conditioner (0.8ml/L) • What it is: A product designed to optimize Reverse Osmosis (RO) water, making it suitable for plant feeding. • Benefits: • Balances pH and stabilizes water for nutrient absorption. • Adds essential elements back into the water, ensuring a balanced feed. • Why now: Using conditioned RO water prevents imbalances and provides a clean, consistent base for all feedings. 3. All-in-One Liquid (1.25ml/L) • What it is: A complete macronutrient blend designed for vegging plants. • Benefits: • Provides all essential nutrients (N-P-K) in a balanced ratio. • Easy to use and highly effective, supporting strong vegetative growth. • Why now: As the plants develop their first leaves and roots, All-in-One Liquid ensures they have the building blocks needed to thrive. Educational Focus: Why Start Nutrients in Week 2? 1. Natural Reserves: • During the first week, seeds rely on their own nutrient stores within the seed casing. Introducing nutrients too early can overwhelm or damage delicate roots. 2. Signs of Readiness: • By Week 2, the emergence of true leaves signals that the plants are ready to transition from relying on reserves to taking in nutrients from the medium. 3. Balanced Start: • Starting with low doses ensures the plants can adjust gradually, reducing the risk of nutrient burn or stress. Week 2 Insights: Setting the Stage for Success 1. Managing Environment Challenges: • Lower temps can slow growth, but maintaining a warm root zone with a heat mat has been key to keeping these seedlings healthy and happy. 2. Patience in Veg: • Early veg may feel slow, but this phase is all about establishing strong roots and foundational growth. Remember, every strong plant starts with a strong start. 3. Why Pro-Mix Soil: • This medium provides excellent aeration and drainage, supporting rapid root growth. The added Biofungicide and Mycorrhizae further enhance plant resilience and nutrient uptake. What’s Next? As we move into Week 3, I’m excited to see these beauties continue their journey. The next steps include: • Monitoring the development of new leaves and early structural growth. • Transitioning to the TrolMaster ecosystem, where environmental precision will allow the Runtz to truly shine. • Documenting every moment through photos and videos to share the magic with this amazing community. Community Love & Thanks Thank you to everyone following along and supporting this grow. To all the participants in the Eternity Grow Cup: best of luck—let’s make this one for the history books! Stay tuned for Week 3, where we’ll dive even deeper into the evolution of these incredible plants. Until then, keep growing, keep believing, and let’s create something legendary together! 💚✨ Genetics - Runtz https://www.zamnesia.com/6000-zamnesia-seeds-runtz-feminized.html Nutrients - Plagron https://plagron.com/en/hobby - Aptus Holland https://aptus-holland.com/ Controls - Trol MAster https://www.trolmaster.eu/ LED - https://www.futureofgrow.com/en LED - https://www.thinkgrowled.com Soil - https://www.promixgardening.com/en Germination - Cannakan https://cannakan.com/?srsltid=AfmBOopXr-inLXajXu3QFgKXCXXos4F1oEvScjMKIB5MR5dk8-GJ-F49 DOGDOCTOR 15% off As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciloved and i fell honored with you all in my life With true love comes happiness Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant.

First week went well, got two plants in coco coir and one in soil. One of the plants in potting soil came up a day after the other two but they’re doing fine

Esta semana he empezado a regar solo con agua en teoría las plantas son de 55-60 días aproximadamente y el día 19 cumplen 60 días.. aunque los tricomas están 50% blancos y 50% transparentes espero que maduren un poco más durante esta semana por que ya tienen bastantes signos de carencia en las hojas que les quedan por que se le han caído bastantes también

Week 14 from Seed – Week 3 of Flower – Full Bloom Ahead The garden is shifting, and so are the vibes — we’re now stepping into the serious stages of the Eternity Grow Cup. Week 3 of flower, and what a beautiful time it is. The girls are officially locked into bloom mode and starting to show their power, stretching with grace and stacking flowers that promise magic. They’ve filled up the SCROG like it was meant for them — one look, and you can feel the energy radiating off the canopy. We started this week a little on the chilly side, with temps dropping down to 16°C, but we found the rhythm. By the end of the week, we had it all dialed in: 24°C with 60% humidity, giving us a clean and steady VPD of 1.22 kPa. CO₂ is rolling at 1107 ppm, and let me tell you, the girls are loving every part of it. They’re responding like pros — strong, healthy, compact, with early signs of dense flower sites setting in all over the canopy. The ICL 300s are fully in play now, and they’re doing a spectacular job. Light penetration is even, and the plants are soaking it up. We’re still holding off on UV, just letting the full spectrum and reds do their thing for now. We’ve updated our feeding too — we’re now into Week 4 of the Aptus Holland Clean Program, and we are about to introduce Plagron Green Sensation into the mix. A little booster to spice up the bloom and get those flower stacks rising to the challenge. The water temps were a struggle — stuck at 14°C — so we dropped in a classic aquarium water heater, and now we’re sitting at a comfy 20°C. Small changes, big impacts. You can see it in the leaves, in the way they pray up toward the light. This week’s visuals? Shot with both the Nikon and Sony setups, featuring different lenses and filters to capture the layers of depth, light, and mood in the garden. The difference between them is clear — two different worlds coming together to tell one story. You’ll feel the vibe through the lens, I promise. Also, it’s veggie season outside — and in the middle of the flower hustle, I’ve been grounding myself with the babies in the outdoor garden. You’ll find some shots of the onions, peppers, and early green life joining the party. Nature always balances herself. Looking forward, Day 21 defoliation is just around the corner — we’ll be opening up the canopy, making way for the light to reach deeper, and helping these compact queens shine even brighter in the weeks to come. We’re just getting started. Massive love and gratitude to Zamnesia, Plagron, and Grow Diaries for building this amazing platform for us to grow, share, and celebrate this journey together. And to my beloved sponsors — Aptus Holland, Grove Bags, TrolMaster, ThinkGrow LEDs, Promix, Cannakan, and Ziggy Papers — thank you for the love, the gear, and the belief. And to all of you — lovers, haters, OGs, first-timers, and curious wanderers — thank you for being here. For showing up. For feeling the garden. This journey is for all of us. Let’s keep blooming. More magic coming in the next chapter. 🌸💨 Genetics - Runtz https://www.zamnesia.com/6000-zamnesia-seeds-runtz-feminized.html Nutrients - Plagron https://plagron.com/en/hobby - Aptus Holland https://aptus-holland.com/ Controls - Trol Master https://www.trolmaster.eu/ LED - https://www.futureofgrow.com/en LED - https://www.thinkgrowled.com Soil - https://www.promixgardening.com/en Germination - Cannakan https://cannakan.com/?srsltid=AfmBOopXr-inLXajXu3QFgKXCXXos4F1oEvScjMKIB5MR5dk8-GJ-F49 DOGDOCTOR 15% off Smoking Papers - https://ziggioriginal.com/ Terpene saver - https://grovebags.com/ As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciloved and i fell honored with you all in my life With true love comes happiness Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant.

In love with this strain, day by day she just looks incredible Very happy my first grow and using LST is going perfect. Waiting do her star flowering 😍

It's about week 6 I guess, I don't know. Pheno 1: 2 short ones with great smelling medium sized buds. Fast Pheno 2: looks like a nice producer, very frosty, nice growth, keeping an eye on this one. Slowest of the bunch but not a slow plant by any means Pheno 3: woah, THC bomb! The frostiest plant in the house. Also seems like a fast one Great smells Quite excited for these awesome plants from Zambeza! Catch you before harvest time for some nicer pictures

Hi everyone this last few weeks have been crazy as you all can see this Gelato turned out to be a Photoperiodic plant. Week 17 in to flower for 2 weeks now. All was going well but I did not have much time to look after it. And got some light burn in the early stages did some training techniques and She looks is recovering now. Some nice pictures how big one of those can get when I wasn't expecting this plant to be a Photoperiodic. But let's see she turned out a female so that's great will be a nice surprise probably. Happy Growing and have a lovely week.

Has been doing well the past week the growth is coming along nicely. Started nutrients and a fan schedule to strengthen stock has been set. Well come back in 1 week to check growth and monitor daily temp and hummidity is key.

FBT5 in Mr. B's has been no trouble at all so far, still moist in there so i've not watered on day 5, spraying the soil with amino, did one foliar this week on day 5. Probably will fix the fan over the weekend so it's pointing straight up. FBT5 is an interesting one, vigorous in many ways, it seems to be working hard below grownd . anyway I'll try to get an in soil pH reading on the Mr. B's asap. but it will mostly be secondary nutrients and co2 from now on.

First feeding on day 8. I will be watering with nutes and plain PH's tap water every other watering as required by the dryness of the soilless mix. Watering until about 10% runoff each time. Current lighting: mix of LED & CFL- total wattage 71 watts.

- The trichomes photos have been taken just before the harvest. - Drying was made at 20°C and around 50% of humidity (4 days). - Humidity in jar around 55% on the first day, temperature around 21°C. Veg time : 58 days Flowering time : 73 days Total time from seed to harvest : 135 days Height : 59cm Pot size : 26l

Day 21 Veg: All going good so far with the ladies. At their 5th nodes now and beginning to fill the pots out nicely too now. I have started giving them Megacrop at 1/4 strength now. nonsigns of burn or any issues Siz shooter is the smaller of the group and I have removed her 1st nodes to get her to ficus on the higher ones I won't stress her out now as she could be held back if not careful. Strawberry pie developing well amd i have now tied her main at the 5th node to slow the development and allow the other nodes to equal each other for a canopy. .This will be removed and the node allowed to continue to develop. Mexican airline had the same treatment as the pie with a tied 5th node. Her colour is perfect with no signs of any issues. We will see how the method works by the next update hopefully. fingers crossed. be well

6/13/25 everything is coming along smoothly for the black opium autos. I had to pick a seed shell off of the more scraggly looking one but they’re green and happy In their environment. Stay tuned for what comes next. Also check out my X account and YouTube for any extras that I can’t post here. I have a full seed planting video on YouTube of these strains, that is too Long to post on here. 6/15/25 Shes growing quite visibly in just a couple days

4/22/24 🍓z I was going to take her down after I trimmed off all of the excess leaves and gave her some of the leftover maximum strength food from a space panda in the next tent. She really started taking off again, so I’m gonna keep her going. I’m gonna keep them all going and doing just great really starting to put out a lot of resin. They smell fantastic. I’m having a lot of fun with them so I’m gonna keep them going. I could take them down right now they are ready, but I just wanna grow them a little more. 👍👍👍 4/23/24 Wow they are great. ZStraverriez...hard to type.... is READY! I took the leaves off a couple days ago to see if I would get any growth but nope. So I will use FloraKleen 10ml per gal and do a 2 or 3 gallon flush and put her back in for a day. I harvested the CBD. It smells like berries, just great just the right size in a 2 gallon pot with no training. I found a seed in the CBD, the others might be seeding as well......that is my oldest tent probably has pollen somewhere. Still everything is good, but im getting a new tent...I also just got a MarsHydro light for 100 it's the light bar one. 4/23/24 Apricot and straw. gorilla are growing good. Zstraberriez....which is a HUGE BITCH TO SPELL....but WOW smells like berries and vanilla and happiness. I let some dry for a few hours and put it in the Arizer X2 and she was great. These are so fast and the colors are beautiful too. It's like a perfect autumn day with all the leave changing color. Except my colors are way better and I can smoke them.... 4/24/24 🍓🍓🦍🍑👍💎💎💎 I am seeing lots of resin form. I thought they would be ready to go, but it looks like they just kind of took a little pause and I trimmed off the unnecessary and fading leaves and they got their second wind and now seeing a lot of resin production💎💎💎. they smell great. They look like they’re ready to keep going for another two weeks so I’m gonna do that and I’ll just harvest a little bit along the way I smoke some of all of them this morning and they’re just great. 👍👍👍 4/25/24 I ended up doing a little bit heavier, feeding than usual. I did about 2 mL of all the supplements and now I’m seeing lots of resin. I’m very careful all the other nutrients have burned my plants horribly but I’m very careful in general. Hydroponic seems to do a good job without burning. Fastbuds has a 25 pack of all their different strains mixed together for 100. I might do that. I’m kind of neurotic. I may need to know what I’m growing I think about this. I really like all of their plants they have a personality all of their own. I like Seedsman and the F1 it’s from Royal queen seeds. 4/25/24 🍑🍓🍓 marsHydro FC-E1500. I just got this delivered today. It cost 100. Although it is a powerful amazing light is no good for me at home. The TS-1000 lights you can move the driver outside the tent and then the top of the light has a little resting tray. This one is totally for commercial use, you cannot remove the driver and its pretty heavy, sold construction all the way, but in my small space I’m gonna have to wrap this up and put it away. It’s a 10 out of 10 it’s a beautiful light super bright. It’s everything you want in a grow light for a commercial space but it is way too hot for a small 24” x 24” tent that I grow in. I have 3 tents and can't run lights over 90Watts or the room gets too hot, and I can grow 3 or 4 perfectly with the TS-1000 set at about only 90 watts, its just perfect. This will get far too hot in the small tent, unless I want to set my air conditioner to 72 and get a massive electric bill! so I’m gonna stick with these TS-1000, the most perfect home light for grow tents I have ever used. I’ll give this light away someday but the Mars Hydro TS-1000 is still the absolute best light I’ve ever used. I have 4 of them now. 4/28 🍓🍓🍑👍💦💦💦💎💎💎 I can’t believe the amount of res in that they are all starting to put out. They are really getting their second wind. I am just having a lot of fun with them so I’m gonna keep them going as long, probably for a couple more weeks at least until they are no longer viable, but I should be able to keep them going pretty good for a while. 👍

Primera semana despues del cambio de fotoperiodo y luz, cambie de haluro a sodio de 250w, va todo bien, esta semana fertilice un poco menos porque vi que tenia harta ec en el sustrato, se mandaron un buen estiron esta semana, estuve defoliando durante la semana. Va todo bien, me gusta como se ven las plantitas y estoy feliz con como estan creciendo.

Week 4 - 01/22 to 01/28 2021 Pictures from Days 25 + 26 TRANSPLANTED! 1.) I think the Purple Lemonade might have flipped into preflower already like the other Red Poison and Dark Devil 2.) Think the Purple Lemonade has Tobacco Mosaic Disease? No worries for me dur only thing I can see with the streaking/twisted new growth but the Purple Lemonade is doing fine otherwise 😈 More and more reasons to go back to a photoperiod grow after this for more control/really test out the new lights 🙌 Ended up more 50/50 ratio of Destiny Organic's Dark Matter Living Soil + ProMixHP since I had to make the Destiny last. Apparently they went out of business just after I decided it was my favourite/new soil :( Would rather stay away from Ocean Floor since I haven't had the best experiences with it (bugs/rust fungus etc) Feel free to drop some recommendations other than Fox Farms below 👍 Moved the Purple over to it's final 5gal on Jan 26 and started light LST + watering from the bottom of the tray to coax the roots down as opposed to a top pour. Still giving them hourly sprays of basic water foliar and the light water/hydrogen peroxide spray mixed in here and there for piece of mind/extra cleaning from the soil contact during transplant. Looks like bits of purple/red flecks are starting to creep in to the stems so hopefully keeping my window open at night to drop the temperatures will pull some great colours in my tent for the first time 😻👹😈 I raised the @ViparSpectraLED P1500 another eight inches after transplant and started basic LST. I really wanted to get these four under a ScrOG but if 3/4 are already flipping and the LSD is still runty I might have to wait it out again. I have the @MarsHydroLED TSL2000 set up and ready to go once the girls settle into their new pots. Have the new surge protector/heavy duty power cords/power tool grade timers as mentioned in Week 3. Some of it shown in the pictures. Threw some videos in this week as well with some Queen's Radio GaGa, Beastie Boys' Brass Monkey, and a little hint of Arkells ....COME TO LIGHT on the short @ViparSpectraLED ..GET IT.. 😓 -- Thanks for checking in!
