25.10 Day 1 germination Great little package from Royal Queen seeds. Thankyou once again for that my friends. Love both of these strains, I've done their cookies gelato before and highly rated it ,I haven't grown their Runtz but the one from Zamnesia was insanely good. Started today in sterilised water. Let's go👍🌱 This is the diary for the 3 Cookies gelato 29.10 Days 1? Tap roots in water after 24 hours so carefully transplanted them to paper towel yesterday and 24 hours later 2cm tap roots in all seeds were placed tonight in soil mix and in the tent in the corner

11.12 Topping has done well. Plants have opened up and starting to look healthier all round except for one cookies gelato, whom doesn't look as healthy. Gonna have to wait for the 2 autos to finish up before flipping these and adding the scrog net, so another 2 weeks probably

16.9 Day 59 One of the Cookies G looks a bit sad. She always did. I think she always will. Watered today. Humidity is about 50% but kinda needs to be because of the 2 autos finishing up (which won't be long at all now) Growth is booming now, might top them one more time and check lower (sucker) branches before flowering. 22.12 Day 66 I've set the scrog net up ready to catch that stretch, given quite a strong defol and lollipop sesh. They're all looking much healthier now and ready to produce some flowers, just waiting for the six shooter to finish up... Not long now

She's smaller than the rest, leaves look dark like a nitro overdosed, always curled down, crispy edges, burnt tips, slightly white on the edges, some white leaf tips, slow growing.... Just bad genetics I guess? Could surprise in flower?

Can try to aerate the medium with a chopstick or massage the pots sides so its loosening it up. It's stressful though and can cause a bit of shock. I like to water with a smaller sprayer over long periods so its like a soft rain and avoids compacting it as much as possible. And Use Gaia green mostly in my grows, Its a nice products for dry amendments, but I find it need a bit more Magnesium added into the medium. Cheers,

If this was my grow and I had a plant look like that where all the other plants were fine, I'd follow m0use's advice here and I'd kill it... bad genetics, never going to be good. Good luck...

If all the other plants are doing fine and its just this one that's shitting the bed, I would say its not unlikely to be genetics but also could be something in that medium. Maybe that phenotypes roots are not a good as the others and this is the cause of the problems or maybe the medium got compacted and its having a harder time getting oxygen down to them. its really hard to say. If everything is the same and its just that one that's doing poorly just kill it. No need to wait for it to get WPM or something else because its immune system is weakened. prob will not yield the best either can give more canopy space to the other plants that are doing better. Cant win them all. ps it would help us out if we knew what you where feeding them, like how much and how often. As well as your mediums composure. Best Of Luck!

5.01.23 Thursday Day 81 Well first things first, happy new year and apologies for minimal updates in December. Switched to 12 12 on Monday and scrogging it out this time round. The cookies gelato, are slightly smaller than the Runtz are. One of them is having slightly yellow leaves so, have given her a call mag, molasses and kelp boost mainly in spray form. Hopefully they're gonna stretch nicely, I may have to remove some more lowers in a couple of weeks.

12.01 Thursday Day 8 Plants are stretching nicely for week 2, the smaller ones are catching up and the scrog is helping to keep the taller ones the same height. Gave them all today some molasses, seaweed, acids and call mag. That'll probably be it until the mid flower top dress unless any deficiencies show up. 🤞🌱👍
