Cuttings rooted in a very quick 6-10 days from the first to the last. These are cuts off my best 3 phenos which will be reduced down to one or two phenos on the next run.
Decided to put them on a 18/6 cycle to get them ready for the LED light cycle in the big tent. Absolutely massive already and going to have to scrog them down to control the big stretch these plants are know for.
Very happy so far and I turned the lights on to 12/12 today.
Also turned the LED up to 380w and still learning how close I can get the plants to the light with such a efficient LED.
Explosive growth during the first week of flower, also turned the LED from 380 to 500w at a distance of 48cm.
Only thing on my mind is when to defoliate, torn between doing it once now day 7 flower and again at day 21 or to wait until day 21 and do it all at once.
Left the EC at 1.2 as they look happy.
Defoliated one final time, running out of height space fast. Hopefully they do not stretch much more in the final 6 days of stretch.
Also picked off a few lower shoots after pics were taken, it was quite a aggressive defoliation so hoping they recover well in the next few days.
Also raised ec by 0.1 as the ec dropped a point over the last few days.
Seeing a couple of red hairs which is very early for day 29 flower, had a good check of every branch and can’t see any signs of balls or nannas. Maybe the fact this run is using a led and this time it’s clones is the reason for the early red hairs. Fingers crossed I have not missed anything as the canopy is a little too packed
Fantastic thc production and buds nicely developed, swapped out the shogun boost for the bud xl which I like to do for the last week before flush. Dropped EC down to 1.1-1.2 as they are in the final stages of flowering.
Only issue is I regret getting rid of one of the phenos so may try and take a clone from a small flower to save it.
So I harvested the top half of the canopy at day 58 while leaving the bottom half to finish up for another week. Looks like the best yield so far running for my runtz muffin grows.
Also dropped the water temp at night to promote colouration of the buds which seems to be working very well.
Hung bottom half of canopy and so impressed with the result and colour. I am already so blown away by this strain I struggle to grow anything else. Will report back soon with dried bud pics
Very happy with the yield which was close to a gram per watt used with a quite low yielding strain and that was with a very very close trim job. Could easily have been a gram a watt had I not trimmed it for a top shelf look.
Quality was as usual 10/10 with runtz muffin which I have come to expect. Such amazing phenos to be found.
@Ferenc, if he wants to see more diaries of runtz grown in all styles check my other diaries. I have grown it organically in soil, in coco, in hydro with a nft table and Wilmas using clay pebbles. With HPS and with LED👍
@TheWeedaltor, with the right pheno its probably the best thing I have grown in 18 years🔥 always pop a pack of 5 or 10 and you will be shocked at the quality of some of the phenos brother
@AwfulBuddy, I did do even better than that on a later run. I did cheat a little and cut the top half of the canopy down and gave the bottom half another 5 days to totally finish up which helped overall yield
@Hydro_grow, I have grown it in all mediums so you can check my diaries to see exactly how I fed. Main thing is don’t run too high in late flower and flush for 10 days minimum even in hydro. If you have any questions feel free to message me or ask on here👍
@@ThePuffingprincess17, thank you🙌 I have grown it in many ways under different light types and always produces such high quality I struggle to grow anything else🔥
Personally I prefer to defoliate two times instead of just once if plants are bushy, when plants are healthy you don’t stress to much them and have a better circulation of air making them stronger, less humidity and less risks of mold, but this is just my opinion
You know yet by yourself how to grow 👏🏻😉
Good luck 💪🏻💚
@TheWeedaltor, I did end up defoliating two days ago. I just knew deep down it needed it, I did it on the first day of flower, then the 8th day and will do it a final time on day 21.
They are really flourishing and has been a real good start to the flowering period.
Thanks for the advice brother👍
@bobtheblob, yeah 100%. I am going to put a scrog net over the canopy and use a new 630w led which will hopefully increase yield at least 30%.
I have two real nice fruity phenos and one not very fruity but absolutely coated in thc.
I will probably run all three phenos but might only use my favourite one or two in the next run.
I have just purchased some red hot cookies from sweet seeds (basically Tropicana cookies) for the dark red/purple pheno and thinking of crossing it against my best two runtz phenos like you did👍
