Cino's Runtz Fem.

AlpAge_Cino Now in 1 gallon smartpot with 50% Canna coco Pro+, 50% Plagron perlite and Biotabs program for Autopot system : 25g bactrex and 1 growtab / 5g mycotrex in plantation hole. Watered with 1g/L bactrex and 5mL/L orgatrex solution for 10 days. 06/16/2023 : joined my SOG... watered by cocomat/easy2go system and sprayed once a week with Boom Boom from Biotabs.

AlpAge_Cino Now with 4 nodes! 👹 06/19/2023 : Boom Boom Spray before topping... 06/20/2023 : ...topping done. 06/23/2023 : Runtz is OK, now mainlining.

AlpAge_Cino Runtz go large! 06/26/2023 : from 1 gal to 3 gal... mainlining goes on. 06/28/2023 : took transplantation like a champ and love is new pot! 06/29/2023 : incredible growth after a day. 07/02/2023 : from line to crown shape in 3 days.

AlpAge_Cino Maintaining mainlining daily with this explosive growth... and thinking about trying a SCROG. I thought I would do the same as my last photoperiodic strain (SOG with clones and mother plant in the same space) but this plant should grow giant with Autopot/Biotabs combo. Will see in a few weeks.

AlpAge_Cino I canceled mainlining last week as I shaped the plant the way I wanted. Now, I'll let it grow "freely" with its roommates, but Runtz is too big and must go.... to give tiny Amnesias some space. Next week should be the last transplantation.

AlpAge_Cino 07/31/2023 : this is last transplant day... From 3 to 5 gal Smartpot by Autopot with Airbase & Airdome in its own space, just for a couple of weeks while Amnesia Haze SOG free the big tent. I upgraded rez too from 30 to 47 L so I can share it with both tents. I had to do a little bondage with Runtz, using a scrog net and topping a few times to obtain a plane canopy. I'll use a temporary SF1000 @100%/30cm so Runtz just have to fulfill the net now! 😄

AlpAge_Cino 08/12/2023 : Yesterday was harvest day for my SOG, so Runtz is back in the place today! As she grew a lot, I decided to begin flowering. To maintain 45 DLI with 12h @30cm I must set FC-E3000 to 75% (235W) and temperature gets a bit high : Runtz sweats and RH skyrockets to 80%! I let it make its transition and I'll defoliate / remove lower nodes before third flowering week.

AlpAge_Cino 08/18/2023 : stretch begun. 08/21/2023 : stretch is going on and is impressive after 3 days! First pistils are here. It smells now, while preflowering, and not just a little. I hope it won't grow too high... and will give me a lot. 😉

AlpAge_Cino Massive yellowing... Runtz is starving! I put 1 more biotabs tab and gave her a massive shot of orgatrex+bactrex. After removing all half dead/yellow leaves, it seems alive : we'll see. I begun flowering nutrition with tea compost this week - FLO4 (Biotabs PK booster next week - FLO5).

AlpAge_Cino Past two weeks were hotter than hell! Temp reached 30°C by day/25°C by night... Runtz drunk about 2L a day, provided by autopot, and RH% was astronomical (topped at 80%). I set up a desumidificator and with temp drop we are now about 60% and down. Another round of biotabs tea compost this week (FLO6) and still on light orgatrex+bactrex nutrition. Runtz had a bad time but now it seems out of the red zone : buds get bigger, smell is powerfull and stretch looks done with 60cm max. There are a lot of milky trichromes and already a few amber : I think it's a bit early (3 weeks to harvest, what the ... ?). Maybe Runtz thought it was dying and decided to hurry up.😅

AlpAge_Cino Flowering week 7 : one last big shot of Biotabs PK Booster (1L@20mL/L) with a drop of Calmag 2.0 from B.A.C. (1mL/L). Yellowing is now under control but flushing is in less than a week so... it will be water until the end! The smell is now more powerfull than my carbon filter : it's time to order a new one. I set DLI down to 40 : let's Runtz understand it's time to get bigger buds.

AlpAge_Cino /Week 8/ flowering : there are already a third amber trichromes on leaves but not enough yet on flowers. Top buds are the same size as last week but lower ones are still getting bigger. Runtz is almost done, I'll recheck trichromes just before weekend. Rain water only : let's get yellow again! I set DLi down to 35 until the end. EDIT : And what the hell is that smell...😱 EDIT : 09/29/2023, almost no clear and enough amber for me... as Runtz starts foxtailling, it's harvest day!😀

AlpAge_Cino Took a few shots before removing all big leaves and put it to bed for one last big night. Don't have wet buds weight, sorry. It's now hanging in my drying tent with 20°C and 60-70% RH. Next check in a week. I vaped a few dried popcorn buds and it tasted suprisingly good after a few inhales, with quite balanced effect. EDIT : 10/05/2023 Drying looks done so now it's trimming time. Still a lot of little/fluffy buds, I should have removed more of them... but also a lot of medium sized/rock solid buds covered with trichromes. 136g dried and trimmed, with 0,5g hashball from scissors and 2g pressed pollen. Now, in glass jars for 2 weeks. No seed found : I'm still learning but this my first sinsemilia photoperiodic grow!
