~Entry for the 'Best Rarest & Smallest Pot by Seedsman' contest~ Starring 🤩.... ~ Seedsman Zkittlez Auto ~ Zkittlez (Grape x Grape Apple) Auto x Auto Fruit (Auto Fruit Cheese x Auto Blueberry) Zkittlez Auto is one of the very sweetest-tasting auto strains available anywhere. It is a sativa-dominant (60%) strain that was bred from Zkittlez (Grape x Grape Apple) Auto crossed with a male Fruit Kush Auto, the latter a remarkable fruity strain bred from Fruit Cheese Auto and Blueberry Auto. Growers can expect to harvest some good yields of high-THC buds. Zkittlez Auto remains a fairly short plant, rarely exceeding 120 cm. in height wherever it is grown. This is a vigorous plant which is able to metabolize a high level of nutrients and she's a thirsty girl too! If growing indoors close to neighbors it is strongly advised to ensure good and effective carbon air-filtration in order to neutralize powerful odors. This strain's life-cycle is approximately 90 days from seed to harvest. The leaves on this plant are big and wide serving to convert every lumen available into Zkittlez goodness. Indoor growers should obtain between 400 - 500 gr/m2 while plants cultivated outdoors will produce slightly more at 500 - 600 gr/m2. Lateral branching is very good and it is recommended to use supports/ties to prevent snapping and keep buds close to the light source. This strain's scent is sweet and fruity with candy and berry notes. Its high-THC has been measured at between 21 - 24% with less than 1% CBD. The effect is well-balanced, cerebral and euphoric, and is very good for social situations as well as for relaxing in front of the TV either alone or with company. It also has the added effect of helping to relieve chronic pain, helping with nausea, insomnia and depression as well as stimulating the appetite.** **Credit to Seedsman.com ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~ The Setup ~ ~ Grown in a 2qt plastic popcorn pot filled with Mother Earth Grow 70/30 Coco/Perlite with Xtreme Gardening Mykos added. ~ Seed was germinated directly in the medium without any 'pre-soak' ~ Feeding will be by Dutch Pro Nutrients ~ 24hr light cycle while germinating ~ 20/4 light cycle after first leaves appear. ~ 4x8 Gorilla Tent ~ HLG 650R w/ 30w Supplemental UVA Bar controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation. (also a HLG Blackbird for additional side lighting if necessary) ~ Supplemental co2 controlled by an AutoPilot APC 8200 co2 controller ~ AC Infinity Cloudline T6 with Controller 67 using a Terrabloom 6x24" carbon filter ~ De-Humidifier and Humidifier when needed. ~ 14k BTU IdealAir portable A/C unit plumbed into tent for temperature control. ~ BlueLab testing instruments ~ Two Hurricane 18" oscillating fans ~ Two 6" Clip-on fans ~ Two 10" floor mounted fans ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Update: 12/20- Here we go into the fourth week of flower for this little lady! The Seedsman Zkittlez Auto is doing fantastic so far and Honestly I was a little concerned that she might get root bound and that it would negatively affect her, but she's doing great so far! She seems to be doing well getting watered/fed every other day right now and only shows a very slight sign of drooping before I water/feed again after a day of drying out thoroughly. Today she was given 0.25g of well water with a base ppm of 100 to which I added the following Dutch Pro nutrients: Bloom 'A' & 'B' @ 10ml/g each, Explode @ 3.8 ml/g, Silica Von Liebig’s Special @ 1.2 ml/g along with Earth Juice's Oily Can @ 5 ml/g to end up with a total 1200ppm(500 scale) nutrient solution. After adding the nutrients and checking the EC (2.4 EC), I ph'd the solution to 6.3 @ 72℉ then watered until I had runoff. After she finished draining, which took around 5 minutes, I turned her pot 1/4 turn. 12/22- Well the Seedsman Zkittlez Auto is looking like a Rock Star with excellent color, great vigor and she's stacking her flowers like crazy... What more could I ask for?😎👍 Today she was given 0.25g of well water with a base ppm of 100 to which I added the following Dutch Pro nutrients: Bloom 'A' & 'B' @ 10ml/g each, Explode @ 3.8 ml/g, Silica Von Liebig’s Special @ 1.2 ml/g along with Earth Juice's Oily Can @ 5 ml/g to end up with a total 1200ppm(500 scale) nutrient solution. After adding the nutrients and checking the EC (2.4 EC), I ph'd the solution to 6.5 @ 73℉ then watered until I had runoff. After she finished draining, which took around 5 minutes, I turned her pot 1/4 turn. 12/24- 🎄🎅MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!🎅🎄 12/26- Yesterday, for Christmas, I fed/watered her (she was drooping) to runoff with 0.25g of well water, that has a base ppm of 100, to which I added the following Dutch Pro nutrients: Bloom 'A' & 'B' @ 10ml/g each, Explode @ 3.8 ml/g, Silica Von Liebig’s Special @ 1.2 ml/g along with Earth Juice's Oily Can @ 5 ml/g to end up with a total 1200ppm(500 scale) nutrient solution. After adding the nutrients and checking the EC (2.4 EC), I ph'd the solution to 6.3 @ 74℉. Well there's four weeks of flower behind us now and she's got at least another 2-3 weeks in her for sure... stay tuned, it's getting ready to get exciting! See you next week fam! 😎🤙❤️ ~ Thank you from the bottom of my heart for following my grows and for all the ❤️and support you give! 💚What you grow - Grow what you💚

📋 Comments Lemon cherry gelato by MNSL Is a good plant to grow. She has produced some nice flowers and is a very forgiving plant. 📋 Data Seed to havest=113 days. Veg time=35 days. Flower time=78 days. Wet weight=917g Dry weight=104g 📋 Smoke report After 11 days of drying i trimmed half the plant (trim jail) and finished trimming the day after, it. Not the easiest to trim and not as dense buds as the other plant in the grow but damn this lemon cherry gelato is absolutely dripping with trichomes and has a really fruity smell. There is a decent amount of trim to run some bubble hash. This is an excellent smoke, quiet sweet with citrus/lemon and slight cherry or fruity taste to it. Quiet strong maybe 25%THC. 📋Grow stats for GDG 22 #1 Lemon cherry gelato=104g #2 Zoap=79g Total=183g Lights on. 20hrs×7days=140hrs 18hrs×33days=594hrs 12hrs×78days=936hrs Total hours=1670hrs Light power=211.09Kw Rad power=415.73Kw Extractor=43.5Kw 4 gang=56.62Kw Top fan=27.82 Total electricity=754.76KW Electricity cost @£0.25/Kw=£188.69 Average light power a day=1.78Kw Average watt per hour=106w g/watt=(183÷106)=1.72g/w £/g=£1.03/g 📋Final word. Considering how cold it's been i have managed to get a decent VPD throughout the grow, I'd go as far to say the extra money spent on electricity was definitely worth it. I didn't run into any major problems and the Plagron nutes were excellent, I'm thinking these are going to be my goto from now on. I combined the trim from both plants to make a hash run and managed 14g of hash. That takes my total to 197g for the grow. Very happy. Back soon. Take it easy. ********************************************

Started the flush cycle with straight water. Plants are very frosty and leaves still retain a fair amount of the green color.

I finally got them in the garden! It was a trip getting out there, so they don't look the greatest because they're stressed. I broadforked the bed because I have very hard clay soil and put down Ocean Forest potting soil. I have some wire support hoops for the AG19 row cover I'm going to be using for the transition. It's lightweight and breathable but it will cut down on some of the sun so they don't burn and it will also keep them warmer at night since it's still pretty cool. And please disregard my comment about the Chamomile and Nitrogen... Chamomile sequesters Calcium, Potassium and Sulfur, not Nitrogen😜. Clover sequesters Nitrogen. I added about 5-10% Biochar in with the Fox farm potting soil which is an excellent source of carbon and helps retain soil moisture. I added some lime to stabilize ph and try to deter lockout which I had last year. I also added mycorrhizal inoculant for root health, it helps to reduce stress in plants and helps them to uptake more sugars which is exactly what we want.

📅 Week 11 | 🗓️ Day 71–77 — 3rd week of flowering Biscotti Gelato 🍪🍨 – elegant, fragrant, stacking and frosting up beautifully 🔸 The stretch has clearly settled — she’s holding a sturdy, balanced canopy with strong verticals and consistent cola height. Buds are now clearly formed clusters, each topped with thick tufts of bright white pistils. Calyxes are beginning to swell and stack neatly, and there’s a noticeable layer of early trichome sparkle spreading over the sugar leaves. 🔸 The foliage remains deep, lush green, with broad, slightly glossy leaves showing no signs of stress. The overall posture is confident and vigorous — she’s thriving in her rhythm. Those slightly purple petioles add a nice touch of personality under the lights. 🔸 Watering & care: Keeping the same steady routine — moist but not soaked, around 30% soil moisture before watering. Airflow through the canopy looks solid, and humidity is still in a safe zone for mid-flower. I'm still at half the amount specified for fertilizer. 📈 Current Conditions 🌡️ Day: 27 °C 🌡️ Night: 18 °C 💨 Humidity: 59 % 🔦 PPFD: 800–900 µmol (12/12 light cycle) 🛠️ Setup 💡 Cosmos 200 W ⛺ Tent: 120 × 120 × 180 cm 🍯 Pots: 18 L plastic pots 🌱 Medium: Bio-Bizz Light Mix 💊 Nutrients: Advanced Nutrients ≈ ½ of the schedule) 💧 Water: Tap water (0.5 EC)

Day 1 - 03/31/2022 Hello, World! 34th Street AK-47 Autoflower from OCS.ca germinated in 1 day after placing seeds in the freezer over night before planting. This was my 3rd attempt and the freezing method seemed to have done the trick! Sprouted on day 4. I placed the seed in the Aerogarden sponge pod and didn’t press it down too much. When the tap root started, it had nothing to grip onto, so I solved this by cutting a small portion of another sponge and placed it above the seed securing it in place with a loose “lid” on top so the sprout could easily push through. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 3 - 04/02/2022 Hygrometer is in. Was drier than a popcorns fart in the closet so I got the humidifier going and it’s looking good. Went from 22% to 38% humidity in ~1 hour. pH, water temp and EC/PPM all seemed high so I added ~0.5 mL of pH Down that brought the levels to 5.4 (too low). I added ~2 cups of Brita filtered water (water was getting low anyway) before I went to bed from the fridge that helped raise the pH, lower the EC/PPM, and the temp by a few degrees as well. In an attempt to cool the water down a bit over night, I took the “cap” off of the Aerogarden reservoir to let the water ‘breath’ while the light was off between 2 am and 6 am – that did not work... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 4 - 04/03/2022 Water temp remains high at around 28 c. I replaced about 1/3 of the tank with new water and added ~1ml of Miracle Grow. Didn't effect the water temp at all. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 6 - 04/05/2022 Levels appear the same. Tomorrow I’ll change the water out and start adding FloraMicro, FloraGrow and FloraBloom with some CaliMagic. Might pick up some Root inoculate of sorts or at least some preventative root rot formula – better safe than sorry. I’ll have to start seriously taking care of the water temp as well. Having it always around the 30 degree mark is not good. On a side note, I inadvertently found a great way to bump up humidity and air temp quickly: add boiling/hot water to the humidifier. My humidifier ran out of water over night while I was asleep. At 6:30 am I was lucky enough to notice since the humidifier rattles when empty. Humidity was down to 38% at that point. I went back to bed, woke up at 8:30 and it was down to 28%. As luck would have it, there was some left over boiling water on the stove in a kettle and I needed something easy to pour with. I checked back 30 minutes later and the air humidity/temp was up to 60% / 30 C respectively. Perfect conditions for our little lady to get big and strong. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 7 - 04/06/2022 First water exchange went smoothly. This was also the first time I added nutrients other than the NutriGrow formula. I mixed everything together in 16 cups of water. NOTE TO SELF: 16 cups is not enough for 1.1 gallons! I had to add another 5 cups of water/nutrients to get the water volume right. I added a bit of NutriGrow only in the last 5 cups with ~1mL of pH down (didn’t measure; kept applying in small doses until pH was around 6). Excited to see how she reacts to her tasty new treats! 😀 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Started their 48 hour of darkness today, am going to chop Wed. I think they did a great job finishing up over the last week, super excited to see how they turned out. Keeping this week's update short and sweet, the next update will be much more detailed. Will post the final update after I finish drying and trimming.

DAY 49 FLOWERING: sorry about the video this week. Very long week and it is hot in the grow room now. My camera is not as good on my phone now so the quality suffers I think. Bare with me on this one. Lol Now the important bit , the plants..... All of the purple monkey look amazing now with their pinks and reds shimmering in the lights. They smell amazing now and all look so ready besides a flush of new pistils all over most of them. #3 is not at that stage and may be harvested any day now I think bitbthebother 2 need another week i feel to hit their best before ripening off. Tine will tell this week. They have been rock solid throughout this heatwave and even with very dry pots issues , have not skipped a beat. Certainly one to grow again. Banana mash are all looking slightly different in how they have dealt with the heat now. A lot of yellowing starting to happen on a couple and the other two have great trich build ups , very different from each other but all the same age ect.. They will need about 2 more weeks i think and expect a 10 week flowering period for them now. They are very sweet smelling now and their shaggy appearance and long spikes are very appealing. The younger crosses are now starting to swell up more too with the exotic? Looking like it will be a good finisher too. It is easy to see the mimosa Lemin genetics in both of them now but no clue in which exotic the ? Is yet.... With all that said , they are feeding g better now the temp has dropped a little and the end is close now growmies. Be safe and healthy

RSV11 stretched too much because I didn't have the light on intense enough. Her roots have found the solution. I hope she straightens out this next week with the help on nutrition, and her gaining more strength. Beside the stretching everything is going good.
