LottaBuds Thank you Royal Queen Seeds for this opportunity, I am excited to try out these strains and participate in the contest 😃
This diary is a part of the RQS Spring Cup 2021, for which RQS provided me with seeds, nutrients and other things. I will be growing 2 plants of this strain, one using RQS Organic Nutrients, one using BioBizz products. I hope this will not be confusing later in the diary, but for some added clarity the plant using RQS nutrients is in a pot with RQS logo, and the plant I grow using my usual products is in a plain black one 😉 I will log both nutrients to the weeks, but I will not use any BioBizz products apart from BioDown pH adjuster in the RQS pot unless I face some issues with deficiencies.
I also have a second diary with Haze Berry Automatic, same way with 2 plants using different provided nutrients with one and my normal methods with the other.

Seeds have been planted today. Having usually planted directly in soil but wanting to try out the starter pellets, I chose to go for a hybrid solution - instead of sprouting the seeds in the tray, I popped out one pellet per pot, pre-soaked them in little cup with water and the bacteria, and planted them directly into the pre-watered soil. This way I can avoid any disturbance that could happen transplanting later.

Both seeds germinated successfully.

Both seedlings getting started well, RH 55-70% temperatures 22-30C. Watering lightly every 2-3 days, no nutrients yet. PH adjustment with BioBizz Down Ph-. Overall both WMs develop quite similarly and look near identical. First couple sets of leaves are now done.

Harvested at exactly 9 weeks, plant #1 yielded 87g, #2 74g. Very unique flavour and appearance. Responded fine to lst and without training grew unexpectedly tall. She doesn't like high nutrients or humidity.
Absolutely beautiful colours ranging from purple to pink to almost black with bright green leaves and orange hairs on both plants - I only wish the nugs were a little larger. They are nice and dense and frosty though, and would make beautiful concentrates.
First impressions the bud was packed with terps and was quite pungently floral, but this mellowed out along the cure. Very tasty and terpene rich strain.

LottaBuds Nice grow, grew unexpectedly large without training but also handled LST ok. Nutrients still should've been dialed in a little better. As it was the hottest weeks of the summer, RH and heat kept climbing up and it was nice to see the genetics had such strong purple traits that the colours came out even if the temperatures were 22-30C.
Que maravilha ✌️
Boa sorte no cultivo e aproveita o desenvolvimento 👍
E no final que tenhas uma grande colheita 🌱🌱
