Hello again, green warriors and cannabis aficionados! 🌱✨ We’ve now reached week 5 of flowering in our Runtz Battle, and the excitement is at an all-time high! The plants are deep into their flowering phase, and the results are beginning to show in the form of thick, resin-coated buds. Let’s dive into this week’s progress and explore what’s been happening. Week 5 Flowering Progress 🌿🌟 The Runtz strains continue to impress as they head into the final stretch of flowering. Here’s what’s been happening: • Bud Development 🌸: • The buds have significantly bulked up this week, with trichome production reaching new heights. The plants are covered in a frosty layer of resin, indicating that we’re on track for a potent and flavorful harvest. The F1 strain remains a standout with its compact and dense bud structure, showing off some serious bag appeal already. • Terpene Profile 🌿✨: • The aroma in the grow room is intensifying, with the distinct sweet, fruity, and slightly earthy notes of the Runtz strains becoming more pronounced. This rich terpene profile is a hallmark of the Runtz genetics, and it’s a good sign that the final product will be bursting with flavor. • Environmental Consistency 🌡️: • We’re keeping the environment steady with a room temperature of 30.3°C, water temperature at 18°C, and humidity at 51%. These conditions are perfect for continuing the flowering process and ensuring the buds develop fully and healthily. Defoliation Impact 🌿✂️ Last week’s deep defoliation continues to pay off: • Light Penetration and Bud Growth 🌞🌸: • The defoliation has allowed more light to reach the lower bud sites, and the impact is clear. These buds are now catching up in size and density, ensuring an even distribution of growth across the entire plant. The plants are responding beautifully, with all buds swelling and maturing at a consistent rate. • Air Circulation and Health 🌬️: • The increased airflow has kept the plants healthy, preventing any issues with mold or mildew as the buds become denser. This is crucial in the later stages of flowering when moisture can become a concern. Nutrient and Care Strategy 🌱💧 Our nutrient and care routine continues to support the plants as they push toward full maturity: • Watering and Nutrients 💧: • The Autopots are still providing consistent hydration, and we’re maintaining the Regulator and CaMg Boost in the reservoir. The soil, enriched with organic inputs, is doing an excellent job of supplying all the necessary nutrients. The plants are showing no signs of deficiencies, and their vibrant green color is a testament to their health. • Lighting and Environmental Control 🌡️: • The Lumatek Zeus 465 Compact Pro is continuing to deliver powerful, full-spectrum light, which is crucial at this stage for maximizing bud development and resin production. • The TrolMaster Hydro-X controller is keeping the environment perfectly balanced, ensuring that the plants are stress-free and focused on producing the best buds possible. The Road Ahead 🌟🌿 As we move into the final weeks of flowering, the anticipation is building. The Runtz strains are looking and smelling incredible, with dense buds covered in sparkling trichomes. The next few weeks will be crucial as the plants finish maturing, and we start preparing for the harvest. Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the finish line. The end is in sight, and we’re almost ready to reap the rewards of this epic Runtz Battle! 🌟💚 #RuntzBattle #Week5Flower #CannabisCommunity #BudDevelopment #TrichomesOnFleek #GreenMagic #LumatekZeus #TrolMasterHydroX #GrowStrong #StayPositive Germination method 🌱 @thecannakan Genetics Runtz F1 @zam.nesia Runtz auto @kannabiaglobal Nutrition @aptusholland 🌿 @aptus_world 🌎 @aptus_es 🌍 @aptusbrasil 🌱 @aptus_thailand 🌿 @aptus_portugal 🌳 @aptususa_official 🍀 @aptusplanttechnz 🌺 @aptusplanttechaus 🍃 Ambient controls🎮 @trolmaster.eu @trolmaster.eu.support @trolmaster.support @trolmaster.agro Soil @promix_growers_eur @promix_cannabis LED - @lumatekeu Watering- @autopot_usa @autopot_global Love and attention- @dogdoctorofficial #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trolmaster #trolmastereurope #trolmastersecrets #Autopots #RuntzBattle #KannabiaVsZamnesia #GreenJoy As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and so joyful with you all in my life 🙏 With true love comes happiness 💚🙏 Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so 💚 More info and complete updates from all my adventures can be found ⬆️ link in the profile description ⬆️ Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only 💚Growers Love To you All 💚

DAY 62 1 day early of start of new week, just waiting for some more ambers, nearly ready🎉 Still running RO only, 40 PPM. Still keeping it pH’d, it likes to drop slowly still. However, I don’t get why pH is important during flush tho. Not like I need to keep nutrients available for plant to suck up... 🤷‍♂️ I’ve been considering drilling some holes into the base of the main stem as to simulate the stalk-splitting technique. Maybe it’ll help speed things up... I’ll check trichs again tonight when lights kick on and make an executive decision and post updated pictures if it’s a go ahead. Day 63 I split me some stalks! Uploaded a video of the procedure. Day 64 This phenotype is developing purple leaves? Photos uploaded. Day 65 Harvesting... Day 66 More Harvesting... Day 67 Taking clones, moving veg plants to bloom tent. This grow is drying.

-Seeds were germinated directly in soil 2cm deep with 60ml of pH'd mineral water and covered with cling wrap for humidity. -Lights cycle: 18/6 - Seeds popped after 3-4 days, 100% germination -Cling wrap removed after germination -Day 1 of grow is 8/10/2020 -Day 1-4 seedlings were feed pH'd mineral water -Seedlings received their first nutrient feeding on day 5 -Nutrient water pH'd at 6.3 and oxygenated with air pump + air stone -Mycoroot was fed via top dressing Struggled to get the pH with in range, I had to mess around with pH up and down to get it in the range of 6.3. The growth looks good so far just a bit worried up about the colour of the leaves. Temp varied from 26C-28C and humidity ranged between 42-52%. I had to play around with the oscillating fan speeds and positioning as well as the amount of air inlet vents. I found that just having one opened helped get the humidity up and the temp had only a slight increase. I let the oscillating fan run on its lowest setting and put off its rotating function, I also made sure the fan was not directly hitting the plants which assisted with the humidity micro-climate. The distance of the HPS was at 90cm from top of plants after the popped out of the soil, this was readjusted to 60cm once true leaves were showing. They got the first nutrient feed on day 5.

*apologies for lack of media in first week* Welcome to first week of Fastbuds Cheery Cola Auto, growing along side Fastbuds Gorilla Cookies, so good it has its own grow diary on here! So be sure to check it out! Started off by doing some surgery as the husk was still attached to the stem. By day 7 it it looking slightly hungry, so gave it it's first dose of a low strength batch of nutrients. See next week how she likes it!

Day 35-42 Plants are making a nice comeback (d36) Some minor defoliation around the top was done during the last few days (d32-36) I plan on increasing DLI to 40+ during next week. Some defoliation + LST/leaf tucking + pinching (d38) #3 has comeback nicely and has a unique phenotype compared to the 3 others (d38) #4 has slowed down a little bit. The soil was more dry so maybe a lack of water/nutes intake (d38)

DECIDING WHEN TO HARVEST IS HARD. ASKING FOR ADVICE AND POSTING PICS..YOU HAVE TO MONITOR THE TRICHOMES EVERY DAY AND THE HAIRS, SMELL, MAYBE, SOMETIMES, DEPENDS ON THE STRAIN, THE GENES WHICH DOESNT HELP AS I DONT HAVE A GENE DECODER. I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE LIGHTED LUPE, I LOOK AND HAVE TO CONSTANTLY RE FOCUS MY EYES AND SOMETIMES I JUST STARE THROUGH IT AND DAY DREAM...ITS INSAIN. ITS AN EXPERIENCE AND TIME THING. I TRY TO LOOK AT DIFFERENT ANGLES AND MUCH LIKE A TELESCOPE, SORT OF LOOK FROM A PERIPHERAL PERSPECTIVE. I GOT MY WIFI ENDOSCOPE PICTURE TAKER MICROSCOPE FOR 11 BUCKS ON AMAZON. I ALWAYS BUY THE CHEAP ONE, GET PISSED OFF AND END UP BUYING THE GOOD ONE. HOWEVER, THE SCOPE I GOT DOES WORK WELL. IT HAS A LEARNING CURVE AS WELL. GROWING WEED INDOORS IS ADDICTIVE. THE ONE RULE I HAVE TO GET DOWN IS SORT OF A SCARFACE REMAKE I THOUT OF, "DONT GET HIGH ON YOUR OWN SUPPLY, AT LEAST UNTIL THE SHIT IS DRY" OR "UNTIL THE FUCKING SHIT IS DRY" SO, I PRETTY MUCH HAVE SHIT WRAPPED UP OVER AT MY PLACE. I MIGHT JUST HARVEST THESE BUDS, FIND SOME CHICK WHOS GOT HER SHIT HALF TOGETHER, PAY OFF THE TRAILER, START THE BBQ AND KICK BACK AND SMOKE SOME NON GMO DANK FROM THE DANK JAR! Word. I WATERED 2 DAYS AGO TILL RUN OFF WITH MY 6 PH WELL WATER ONLY. THERE ARE ANLY A FEW AMBER TRICHOMES ALL TOGETHER. LAST TIME I BASED THE HARVEST ON AMER TTRICHES THAT NEVER REALLY SHOWED AND BURNT THE TURPS OUT . THIS STUFF IS ALMOST 99% MILKY WHIT AND THE SMELL IS GREAT/ SO IM FIGURING IF I HARVESTED TODAY, I WOULD STILL HAVE GOOD PRODUCT IF DRY AND CURE ARE DONE PROPERLY. THESE ARE MY FIRST BIG SOLID BUDS UNDER MY FIRST DECENT LIGHT AND NOW IM AT THE LAST FEW THINGS I COULD DO TO RUIN THE WHOLE THING. SO IM GIVING IT A 2 WEEK WINDOW, ONLY WATER NO NUTES " I THINK THATS A FLUSH" ILL CHECK FOR AMBER BUT AUTOFLOWERS CAN NOT BE COUNTED ON TO ACT RIGHT. I PLAN TO HARVEST IN THE NEXT 14 DAYS SOMETIME AND KEEP MY TERPS AND CURLED UP BROWN HAIRS ETC.. I THINK CANT REALLY ASK AS I DONT THINK ANYONE COULD LOOK THROUGH MY TENT AND DECIDE. IF YOU CAN, PLZ LET ME KNOW AND ILL POST DETAILED VIDEO, ACTUALLY ILL DO THAT VERY THING ON THIS SUNDAYS UPDATE. HOPEFULLY SOMEONE WILL SEE.

Possibly this is your last week with only water to eliminate excess mineral salts. The appearance of the buds is great, covered in resin and quite hard, almost like stone.Does anyone have any tips for making some live rosin?

4/27/22 Today makes the beginning of preflower. Notice the light xoxo of her tops. Also today her first white hair popped 4/28/22 Late last night i to the early hours of today I added some.LST clups qnd took 4 large fan leaves from the lower region of the plant to allow some light in to the emerging branches. 4/29/22 Today I did her first major defoliation. I only.took leaves on the inside margin of the plant that blocked light from emerging branches. This part of ganja growing always scared me because they look so yucky after for a day or two 5/1/22 My lady looks beautiful today. Looking better after her defoliation a few days ago. She I needing about 1 gal of plain dechlorinated water every other day to keep her topped off. She is drinking some water! I'm assuming this will mean I will have to feed her more that once weekly as well. 5/2/22 I realized today that the white hair I was seeing were just the plant reaching maturity and showing her gender... she is not behaving like a plant in flower. I have decided to change my light cycle to 12:12 in order to flip her I to flower. This is because she is getting too large for her to fit in my tent if she were to continue to veg any longer. The stretch during the first two weeks of flower will likely have my 4x4 filled up.

2ª VEGETATIVA : Alla piccola BISCOTTI {ZAMNESIA} abbiamo cambiato il vaso, da vasetto per la germinazione a 6.5 litri. Durante il travaso abbiamo abbondantemente spruzzato una miscela con olio di NEEM al 4% su tutta la pianta, sul substrato e pure nel box. Partiamo anche con la fertilizzazione con gli amici di ADVANCED NUTRIENTS e la loro linea di prodotti base ph perfect!
