Just the 1st red runtz is stunted so the new one is a few days to a week away from the rest. Everything is growing good. I didn't use nutrients until uppot.
Got tent with multiple strains. I've only grew quikz and 2b blunt before. Both were amazing.
So I started this just to share.
1st time using grow dots and recharge. Works great. So far perfect.
This is my 1st legal grow. That feels good. No more worries.
Uppoted them into 5gal and 7gal fabric pots. I added the grow dots and recharge to the soil. Mix it all in.
Everything is growing great. Had a little transplant stress but not much. So far so good.
I topped them. I don't know If I did before or after the pic. Everything still cruising along just fine. The stunted red runtz is hanging in there so I won't cull it. Well see how she grows.
Still just water only. I add recharge every 10 days. Some times some molasses.
Plants are all just growing so good using these grow dots and recharge. I'm impressed. I normally only use organic amendments but I decided to try these just because the ease of using them.
So I flipped to flower but I forgot to give them a good defoliation and lollipop. I will slowly remove pieces and wait till the 3rd week of flower and strip them down some.
I had to flip due to the grow dots programed release nutrients.
I'm doing a little bending over of the tops. Not tying them down tho. Just bending them daily.
Everything is looking great. The grow dots and recharge is kicking A$$. Easiest nutrients to use. Just add growdots one time and water only (w/recharge)
Took some clones.
All plants showing budsites now. Need to trim them a little bit.
So I removed some leaves and branches that was in the way. Not a complete strip but just light defoliation. I tried to spread it out so not to stress the girls.
Persian Pie by greenhouse is the biggest most vigorous plant in the tent. It's a cross of, lemon tree x banana krumble.
I also added side lights. They are just cheap 18w led light bars. I have 3 hooked up for a total of 54watts. Not much but it's something.
I removed the plastic opaque covers so the diodes are exposed. Well see how it goes.
Everything is growing great. All plants are getting pretty frosty. When I work in the tent and smell the buds, they are sweet, candy, cereal smell. It smells so so good. My temps get up to 82f and I like to keep it under 80f.
I use recharge every 10 days and molasses in between. I still ph my water to 6.5ish. I guess with recharge you can get away with not ph'ing the water. My water sits at 7-8ph so I like to lower it some.
Using side lights. Only 18watt each side. 3 sides. Idk if they will help much but I'm trying it. I also use UV/IR everyday for an hour or so.
Light is 24in from tops and at 100% power. Photone app says its around 850-950 ppfd.
So far I love growdots. I mixed them into the soil before transplant. That's it. One use takes care of the whole plants life.
Wk4 day6- so it seems the red runtz had Male pollen sacs and the flo-see had a banana. All 7 plants got seeded. Idk how bad but I can visually see seeds forming in them all. Major upset. Very sad and mad about this.
So far everything is growing great. I love the grow dots and recharge. I've been using uv/ir every day for about an hour- 2 hours.
All the plants are seeded because of the red runtz hermed. I also found one 🍌 on the flo-see.
I'm really bummed about the pollination and seeds.
I'll take more pictures this week.
Wk5 day 2, the buds smell so good. The red runtz and quikz both smell like sweet, creamy, fruity, cereal, strawberry candy. So so good. I love that smell and taste. The quikz and LMFAO I grew before had same scents.
So every plant got seeded by red runtz. Hopefully there won't be 100s. So far everything is truckin along. The persian pie has started to have leaf issues. The big fan leaves are turning yellow and dying.
I gave them some tea of root organics microbe charge, elemental, bloom booster. The days after is when the persian pie started her issues.
I gave them h20 & recharge today. Been watering them every 3 days.
I lowered the light down a couple inches.
Things seem good.
End wk 6. The red runtz looks almost done. 8wker. All of them are looking great. The persian pie started an early fade. Might have been to much nutes in soil. Idk. They only need water and I fed them a tea 2x. Might of over done it. Still looks dank.
So far so good. Starting wk 7 flower today.
Everything is just starting to fatten up. Everything is super frosty. Smells are amazing.
I lower the light 2x in past 2 wks. It's about 18in from the tops. A lil less probably.
I took clones of them all. 2b blunt & quikz I've grown before and they were amazing. I wanted to do them again. And again.
Looks like red runtz s1 is about done now at wk7. Quikz looks close to it also. Red runtz is a parent to quikz. Everything else looks like they'll be 10wks. I like to go to 11 sometimes too.
Stay tuned.....
Wk 8 baby.
Some are looking done. They all look amazing. I love this grow. I got to say, growdots and recharge have done an amazing job keeping this grow healthy. One of the easiest and healthiest grows I've ever had.
The red runtz in the front has looked done since wk7. I think I'll take her down in a few days. The next to that being finished is quikz, persian pie, & other red runtz.
The flosee and 2b blunt look like they will need the full 10wks.
Can't wait till these are done.
Let's see....
Harvested red runtz #1 at day 58
Red runtz #2 is going to go to 10
About done. Exciting. Tried to take some glamor shots. Used a photo app for the 1st persian pie photo.
The growdots should be running out and necrosis creeping in.
There are seeds in every plant because the 1st red runtz hermed. She was finished at 8wks and I harvested her. Everything else in the tent will go to 10wks maybe 11 if they need it.
I'm water only now. No recharge or anything. Maybe molasses one more time. Maybe I'll give them no water at all till harvest. Well see.
Thx for following my grow guys & gals. It's been fun. Love
I don't know why but I rushed taking pics and I didn't take very many. I'll have to take better harvest pics.
So the 6 made it to 10 wks. Gave them 24-48hrs darkness and gave them all the chop.
They are hanging in the tent right now and we'll pic back up next week.
Sorry for the bad photo week. The week that really counted too.
I Love you
Harvested and trimmed and weighed. Now I'm burping jars. This was the biggest plant in the garden. None will weigh as much as her. Only 3.5oz of trimmed nugs.
Love quikz. It's one of my favorite. I got clones going too. Very dark fade. Busted up bud look very dark and purple. Got a good dense 3oz from her. I'm happy enough.
Wonderful strain. Definitely a keeper in my eyes on taste and potency. Got clones going , some are about to flower. Elev8 did a great job on this 3 way cross.
(Banana butter cup x wedding cake) x white truffles
Wonderful strain to grow. Vigorous, and easy to grow. Super coated in trichomes. Yielded okay. Definitely trying it again with clones. Got a great taste. Like red runtz. So it's probably a runtz taste. Love it
Grew 2 phenos. One was done at wk8 and only yielded an Oz. The 2nd pheno went to wk10 and yielded like 3oz. Both phenos faded dark purple when they were done. Beautiful grow. One was a runt and it was the 1oz pheno. The 8wker.
Love this whole grow. Growdots and recharge are amazing and easy.
Thanks for following.
