5.20.25. 3rd week of flower! Plant is starting to finally grow how it should! Still the stress took a toll on her but once I took off all ties and just let her grow she’s been putting on healthy quick growth! Thanks for checking out grow!

How RQS Compares to Your Standouts Brothers Grimm (your "otherworldly" stars: Montel Iced Tea, Body Count, Bubbles Blueberry F4, Ricky’s Hash Plant, Black Tangi Tea) These are landrace-influenced, heirloom-style genetics with exceptional resin, unique flavors, and structure. They outperform RQS in quality, potency, and "wow" factor in your tents. RQS tends to be more commercial/hybridized for ease and yield, while Brothers Grimm prioritizes distinctive traits and consistency in experienced hands. Humboldt Seed Company autos (your top autos for resin, especially OG Triploid) Humboldt focuses on West Coast legacy genetics with heavy resin production. Clearly superior to RQS autos in trichome density and overall quality. RQS autos are faster and easier for beginners but often lack the resin "frost" and depth you get from Humboldt. Fast Buds (fast, flavorful, reliable autos — you like them a lot) Excellent speed and flavor profiles. You noted they're in a "different class" — fair point. Fast Buds emphasizes quick cycles and modern hybrids with nice terps, while RQS autos can feel more generic or require more coaxing. Quick Thoughts on Your Observations Brothers Grimm (Montel Iced Tea, Bubbles Blueberry F4, etc.): These are clearly the stars in your current setup. The strong smell, unique leaf morphology, and overall vigor in small pots show they're expressing well under your conditions. They reward careful growing with quality that feels special — resin, flavor complexity, and effects that fit your low-dose, functional style better than most commercial lines. Your homemade cross (Gelato 44 × Bubbles Blueberry F4 pollen = "Blueberry Knockout"): Nice work on your first intentional cross-pollination! Getting viable seeds and decent plants from a garage-level cross is a real win. It’s not "pretend breeding" — it’s exactly how many great lines started. The fact that it turned out "pretty nice" is encouraging. However, as you noted, combining a Royal Queen Seeds Gelato 44 (solid but commercial) with Brothers Grimm Bubbles Blueberry F4 (higher-quality, more unique genetics) creates a hybrid that can show the best of both, but also some inconsistency. If the RQS side brings easier growth but less depth, while the Brothers Grimm side brings the special traits, the offspring can be hit-or-miss depending on which phenos you kept. RQS Gelato 44 / Mike Tyson 2.0 vs. Brothers Grimm: Your experience matches what many growers report. RQS lines are generally more "user-friendly" and higher-yielding for beginners or volume grows, but they often lack the resin density, terpene complexity, and unique expressions you get from Brothers Grimm. The Tyson 2.0 collaboration added hype, but in your tents it landed at 7/10 while Brothers Grimm hit "otherworldly." That gap in quality is why you're leaning toward sticking with the professional, boutique genetics going forward. 3/30 11:17PM Gelato 44 & Punch Pie were nice right off the tree the little buds put me right to sleep last night!! The Autos are 7-10 but the Photos are 8/10

What up Growmies, this one grew hella fast maturing in 9 weeks from seed to harvest fast. Buds is true to their name. This one has some serious resin on the flowers reminding me of some sort of a gelato Gorilla glue cross, but we shall see when it's released! I could be far off lol. I had no problems growing her. She was really easy and happy her whole life. She's a great one for extractions! Thank you grow diaries and thank you fastbuds for the opportunity to show the world my organic gardening skills! I appreciate all the support from the growing community here on grow diaries. Big thanks for my followers!

Here she is. Dawg daze reaching her final stages . She's fattening up beautifully n smells amazing. Only fed tap water every other day as needed. So far just waiting on her to finish up. Will update next week on her growth. Grow easy.

Hot and some rainy days which has been great for the growth of the girls. They are flourishing everyday. Responding well to the Grow and CalMag nutrients too. You can tell that the one I had topped is slightly wider than the untouched one. Might experiment a bit more with the topped one to get more of a lollipop look. Still have issues with the Japanese Beatles but I've noticed them getting attracted to the flowers in the garden so hopefully they stick to those instead of gnawing on the leaves of the girls.

1/10 Week 10 Both are in flush and from the looks of the tricones these are the most potent plants we have grown to date. Drinking has really slowed down but keeping the un-PH one gallon daily flush since tap water is cheap. Annie doing very well under the LED lamp, TS-1000 plenty large enough for one plant in flower. This is encouraging for plans to replace the HID with either a TS-2000 or TS-3000(preferred) this spring before the summer heat. Just a few more days....😎 1/11 Bud pics Harvest Belle on 1/13 - Annie 1/16 Just getting them ready. taking off some useless leaves etc... 1/14 Harvesting Belle today, let her dry out one last day. Annie harvest at weeks end. Harvest pics and total numbers at end of week when I take Annie 👉BELLE HARVEST 963 grams wet 👈 Annie got her last watering today, harvest in two days 1/15 Harvesting in about 12 hours, pics and numbers then

🌿 Week 11: The Runtz Harvest & The Final Stretch! ✂️🍂 The Vibe: Week 11 is here, and the tent is feeling a little more spacious! The big news this week is that the White Runtz Automatic has officially been chopped, and she did absolutely incredible. The remaining ladies are pushing through their final stages, and the autumn fade is in full swing. ✂️ The Harvest Report: White Runtz Automatic 🍩❄️ Total Time: 79 Days Rating: 10/10 The Verdict: This girl was an absolute dream to grow! From the start, she showed incredible vigor and stayed very resilient against any stress. Around week 7-8, she started to bulk up like magic. For a 100W setup, her bud density is seriously impressive, and the frost on her makes it look like she’s been dipped in sugar. She didn’t mind the BioBizz and Plagron mix at all and thrived on the PK 13-14 boost in late flower. A very straightforward, no-fuss plant that delivers top-shelf results. I can’t wait to test her out once cure are complete! The Remaining Ladies: Pineapple Express F1: Still the undisputed Queen of the tent! 👑 Her main colas are rock hard and coated in a sticky layer of resin. She’s showing off some beautiful purple and yellow hues in her fan leaves as she nears the finish line. Blue Cheese F1: My pungent little rebel. 🧀 She stayed compact and "boujee" until the end, but the smell coming off her is still the loudest in the tent. She is putting all her remaining energy into ripening those dense little nuggets. Care & Environment: With the Runtz out of the tent, airflow is fantastic. I'm keeping the humidity strictly around 45-50% to prevent any bud rot on these dense colas, and temperatures are holding steady at 27°C with the lights on. Watering is being closely monitored as they start using up the last of their stored nutrients. Next Steps: It’s all about the jeweler's loupe for the Pineapple Express and Blue Cheese now. I’m checking trichomes daily, waiting for that perfect amber ratio before the final chop. The finish line is right around the corner! Happy growing, everyone! Let me know what you think of the Runtz harvest below! 👇

Looking good seems happy, just been watering her

🏆 Harvest Report – MAC n Cheese 🌱 Strain summary: MAC n Cheese delivered a solid mid-range yield with strong structure, excellent trichome coverage, and a clean fade during flush. 📦 Dry yield: 106.97 g of trimmed, dry buds 🌿 Plant traits: • Compact structure with a balanced canopy • Aroma: a mix of cheesy and cookie-like notes, slightly spicy with a creamy undertone • Flush was clean and effective – no signs of stress or imbalance • Buds were heavy, resinous, and matured evenly across the plant 📝 Final verdict: A reliable strain with strong visual appeal and consistent growth. Very manageable, even in the final weeks, and responded well to EC control and light defoliation. Terp profile leans toward dessert-like funk – definitely a keeper for future runs! 💧 Grown with: Advanced Nutrients Masterline (pH Perfect) Plagron Lightmix / Coco (80/20 blend)

Chopped all plants down on October 18th. Will report back soon with final harvest pics and dry weight for each plant. I have multiple grows coming down around the same time and I'm still backed up with the outdoor harvest but will update with final numbers asap!

*LOS FERTILIZANTES SON HACIA LAS OTRAS PLANTAS NO TERMINADAS NO LA QUE SE CORTO ESA SOLO AGUA* *reemplazo bio bloom por monster bloom como los dos son PK la planta se sobrefertiliza* semana 10 y se va de corte la primera contento de terminar mi primer diario entero en esta plataforma cogollos llenos de resina muy contento con la producción en 68 días desde germinación *la planta en total creo un poco menos que el doble de lo que se corto pero fui sacándoselo de a poco antes* ahora solo queda esperar secar y las otras que vienen en camino 70.85 gramos en humedo contando tallos y una hoja de viento por rama espero marcar unos 15 en solo cogollos y ya secos LST en las dos ramas principales de una de las que viene siguiente muy compacta en lo personal me gustan los cogollos con casi nada de hoja (de esto dependerá cuanto raspe en la garganta) por lo que el humo entra sin dejar ninguna molestia muy suave y sativo

This strain gave us no problems, very simple to grow! The plants both stayed small and bushy until flower, then they took off. We will be back to adjust the weight and add more comments. 8/14/21 - The buds are done curing and it’s 🔥 Smooth and flavorful 💨 We finally smoked it and couldn’t finish a joint lol. It’s a lot stronger than we anticipated. I love indica strains and this is now one of my favorites. Next up we have 2 Lemon Kush and 2 Gelato growing outdoors as a side project in between indoor LED grows. Blueberry from seedsman was so simple to grow. We messed up on a few things but we got plenty of nice buds and made 2lbs of butter for edibles. -FIN-

Grew well. Not a single problem

This is where I really started to take a lot more pictures! Everything was coming along great, I had some slight nutrient lockout starting this week but I took care of it quickly! They respond very well to the training.

Well here we are, only a week or two from finishing and this girl's has been a champ! Nothing happening this week aside from watching the buds finish swelling and colours coming in on the leaves. Smell is overwhelming stank, with a sweet undertone just filling the room (and the one above!) when I open the tent. Starting to notice water consumption is down to 2L or less per day which is not a lot for a plant this size, that combined with the colours and the leaves starting to dry and curl makes me believe that there's maybe 7-10 days to go. Not going to rush her, but will start checking trichomes daily to try and nail the perfect harvest window. The last week or two always feel the longest!

Big fat wedding cake is looking really good under the Spider Farmer G5000/UVR40 lights. I switched the lights to a 12/12 today. Time to get some flowering started. I will be changing the solution in a few days to a blooming mix. Everything is looking great.
