White Widow – Week 5 | First Signs of Pre-Flower 🌸✨ Light Schedule: 11/13 from seed Room Temp: ~30.7°C Humidity: 57–60% VPD: ~1.89 kPa Water pH: 6.0–6.1 EC: 0.6 Watering Method: Hand watering ⸻ The Story So Far This queen has a story worth telling. We started with multiple White Widow seeds, but due to an uneven heat mat (lesson learned!), only one seed survived, this very plant. She’s been with us from germination, through her careful transplant into a prepared super soil boosted with Aptus Micro-Mix, Mycor-Mix, and substrate buffer powder. From the start, she’s been under an 11/13 light shuttle, and while I expected earlier flowering, she surprised me, holding back, stacking nodes, and keeping compact. This week, in her fifth week, she finally shows her first clear pre-flower signs. ⸻ Her Look Right Now She’s not tall, but she’s perfectly built, beautiful leaf structure, tight internodes, and starting to branch nicely. The leaves are a deep, healthy green and carry the classic White Widow vigor. I took her out for a studio photo session this week, capturing top shots, side views, and close-ups of her perfect symmetry. ⸻ Feeding Update Up to now, she’s had: • Aptus Regulator • Aptus CalMag Boost • Aptus All-in-One Liquid • Aptus Start Booster Now that she’s entering pre-flower, I’ve removed Start Booster and added Top Booster to support the transition. Current mix: • Regulator • CalMag Boost • Top Booster EC sits around 0.6, pH about 6.0–6.1. Even though she’s in rich super soil, this light feeding supports her until the full soil biology kicks into gear. ⸻ Conditions Yes, temps are a bit on the high side at 30.7°C with 57–60% RH, giving a VPD of ~1.89 kPa. Not ideal, but she’s handling it well, no signs of stress. Hand watering continues, and I might keep it that way for the full run to maintain control and intimacy with the plant. ⸻ What to Expect Next Now that she’s showing pre-flowers, I expect a slow but steady transition. Being in 11/13 from seed, she might flower more compactly, with denser bud sites rather than stretching heavily. This phase will be key to see how White Widow expresses under this unconventional light cycle. ⸻ Gratitude & Shoutouts 🙏 Huge thanks to those making this journey possible: 🌱 Zamnesia Seeds – for preserving and sharing this legend of the 90s 💧 Aptus Holland – for the precise, high-quality nutrients keeping her thriving 💡 ThinkGrow – for the perfectly balanced LED bars delivering even canopy light 🚀 Future of Grow – for the powerful Black Series 600W 🧠 TrolMaster – for environmental precision across the grow ⸻ 📸 Check the gallery for close-ups, overhead shots, and a short video tour of this beautiful survivor. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Giorno 35 fioritura Le piante stanno abbastanza bene. Purtroppo iniziano a soffrire il caldo (ho impostato il condizionatore a 25 gradi altrimenti poi congelo io hahahha) visto che le temperature esterne toccano i 40 gradi e non è facile mantenere in temperatura perfetta l'ambiente. Il box ha qualche punta di 30° ma bene riesco a stare intorno a i 28/29° massimo. Non vedo l'ora di fumare le due Rainbow Belts. Mai avuto questo mix di odori (Lime, uva e Zkittlez) e se penso che dovrò ancora aspettare due mesi la cosa un po' mi rattrista. Le due piante alla fine sono diverse. La #1 da quel poco che ho visto in giro sembra abbia più la forma della Zkittlez mentre la #2 dato che ho fatto la Mooonbow#75 ricorda molto quei fiori in quanto a consistenza. Staremo a vedere... Anche le due Zombie niente male affatto. La pianta #2 quella più compatta ha un odore forte di incenso (cmq sembra di stare in chiesa per capirci) mentre la pianta #1 sa di Kush e lavanda. La Milk Monkey aspettiamo. Per ora è l'unica che non mi dice niente :( Ci vediamo settimana prossima 🖐️ 😎

Casey's Rollex OG is doing well. She is developing some really frosty colas on her. I can't smell at the moment from a cold. I imagine that it is starting up as well. Everything is looking great at the moment.

That's how I know the crop was harvested too early:( ..... but only because someone started visiting my place of cultivation and took my two girls, and left two, so that he wouldn't come back a second time and take them, I decided to cut her down earlier:( that's it such news awaited me when I returned from vacation, but overall the girl looked very beautiful, although she got a lot of stress when the snails ate her, but she endured it and recovered very well:) I will dry the bigger flowers and make bubble hash from the rest, good luck to everyone be careful in nature :).

Not as frosty as I was hoping for, maybe they will be late trichome developers. Day 76 edit: the smell is really strong now, I got my nose really close to one and got a strong lemon candy smell. The bud have been swelling like crazy, some days nearly doubling in size

This week was particularly rough with the shock to the plants from overdosing on myco+ 3-0-3 Really instilled a sense of extra caution and at some level paranoia lol fortunately the plants have shown to be very resilient in their desire to Thrive and grow because a rain water flush worked like a dream

So es geht in die letzten Tage vor der Ernte. Tag 65 Blüte ist der letzte Tag mit Licht und jetzt geht es 48h in die Dunkelheit und dann wird geerntet. Die Ernte ist gut verlaufen und aktuell trocknet die Gute bei 57% RLF und 20°C Der Geruch war sehr fruchtig, cremig, beerig. Ich melde mich nochmal mit den Trockengewicht und Smokereport

Mr. Pipi has only friends with bad Noses. No one can smell the Wild Strawberries...nontheless... looks so gooood... Biggie, Biggie, Biggie can´t you see? Day89: What can Pipi say. Every other Day some Calmag... a little bittle topDress yesterday. Pipi´s thoughts are this is girl vegged 9 Weeks and is in an 8 Liter fabric Pot. Couldn´t transplant her, but Topped and trained her. So i want Biggie Buddies, so since she´s in Flower week 3/4 that´s my last Chance to enrich the soil with dry nutrients for them to dissolve mostly and i can 'flush'. So i wanna feed her more than the 8 Litres could hold, but carefully and step by step. And just a little. No Pipi was used on this plant.

Willkommen in Woche 4 der vegetativen Phase! 🌱 Die Ladys haben das Umtopfen in die großen 14L-Töpfe sehr gut verkraftet – sie sehen gesund aus und entwickeln sich prächtig! Momentan gieße ich alle zwei Tage etwa 4 Liter auf alle Töpfe verteilt. Ich nutze dabei einen Drucksprüher, was sich bei meinem Canna-Koko-Erde-Mix absolut bewährt hat. Das Substrat bleibt gleichmäßig feucht und die Wurzeln scheinen es zu lieben! Ein kleines Thema aktuell: die Luftfeuchtigkeit. Aufgrund der Temperaturen ist die Luft recht trocken – ich überlege, den Luftbefeuchter wieder in Betrieb zu nehmen 😄 Allerdings zeigen die Pflanzen bislang keine Anzeichen von Stress, also scheint alles noch im grünen Bereich zu sein. Ich bin mir noch etwas unsicher, wie lange ich die Vegi-Phase dieses Mal laufen lassen möchte. Bald werde ich jedoch mit dem LST (Low Stress Training) beginnen, um die Struktur der Pflanzen optimal auf die Blüte vorzubereiten. Bis dahin – happy growing! 🌿

Now we've reached day 34 We are now in flowering, the plant is growing well and the flowers are swelling, we really like the pace at which it grows, very well proportioned and with all things in their place. We started giving fertilizers for flowering again slowly to avoid going overboard. We were over veg and now we're taking it easy. Site Description ZAMNESIA - RUNTZ F1 HYBRID AUTOMATIC: UNIFORMITY, RELIABILITY, AND GREAT FLAVOURS! What can we say about Runtz that hasn't already been said? Well, trust us when we say you've never seen it quite like this before! From the team at Zamnesia comes Runtz F1 Automatic. Now, this isn't some Formula One car-related special edition, no. This strain takes everything you know and love about the original Runtz and offers a reliable and uniform growing experience that will impress everyone. GROWING RUNTZ F1 HYBRID AUTOMATIC Runtz F1 Hybrid Automatic is the lovechild of Gelato and Zkittlez; the result is a strain that's extremely vigorous and fast to flower (taking just 10 weeks from germination to harvest). While autoflowers generally make for a no-hassle growing option, F1 hybrid seeds take this ethos one step further. Runtz F1 Automatic showcases great uniformity, meaning all plants will have a remarkably similar appearance and output. These plants are also highly resistant to pests and disease, so if it's your first foray into the world of cannabis cultivation, you're in the right hands with Runtz F1 Automatic. Reaching heights of 55–75cm, Runtz F1 Automatic can slot into the pokiest of grow spaces, both indoors and outdoors. But this small stature is not to the detriment of production. Once ready, growers will be treated to a return of around 500g/m² indoors and 100–150g/plant outdoors. AROMAS, FLAVORS, AND EFFECTS OF RUNTZ F1 HYBRID AUTOMATIC Another perk of F1 hybrid genetics is that these plants are teaming with terpenes and cannabinoids, making for a pungent and potent experience you're unlikely to see with other strains. When it comes to delivering massive flavors, Runtz F1 Hybrid Automatic certainly doesn't phone it in. Upon taking that first toke, users open themselves up to bold notes of creamy vanilla mixed with candied citrus fruit. The result is mouth-watering. With 25% THC to its name, Runtz F1 Automatic offers an uplifting, euphoric, and creative high that will suit all kinds of scenarios, whether social or solo. So seeds of all brands, in addition to these great F1 Hybrids and the entire Zamnesia line, fertilizers and everything related to the world of cannabis, you should buy them from the best online store in the sector www.zamnesia.io
