Rocko’s Runtz Rumble – Tag 63 Blütewoche 2 – Der Stretch trudelt aus! Die zweite Blütewoche ist geschafft und unsere drei Kandidatinnen haben noch einmal ordentlich an Höhe zugelegt. Zum Glück scheint sich der Stretch gegen Ende der Woche langsam zu beruhigen – und darüber bin ich ehrlich gesagt auch ziemlich froh. 😅 Der Stretch Melonade Runtz ist von 85 cm auf etwa 105–108 cm gewachsen. Ihre langen Internodien und ihre offene Struktur werden immer deutlicher. Sie bleibt weiterhin unsere empfindlichste Kandidatin und einige der oberen Triebe zeigen leichten Lichtstress. Kein Wunder, denn der Abstand zu den Lampen ist inzwischen verdammt knapp geworden. Pink Banana Runtz ist von 70 cm auf etwa 90–96 cm gewachsen. Sie bleibt damit weiterhin die kompakteste und buschigste unserer drei Kandidatinnen und zeigt deutlich kürzere Internodien. Besonders auffällig ist inzwischen ihr Abendrhythmus: Pinky zeigt von allen drei am deutlichsten, wann sie Feierabend haben möchte. Gegen Ende der Lichtphase lässt sie ihre Blätter gerne schon deutlich absinken, während Melonade und vor allem Blue Zushi teilweise noch richtig steil dastehen. 😴 Offenbar hat hier jede Kandidatin ihre ganz eigene innere Uhr. Blue Zushi ist von 90 cm auf etwa 113 cm gewachsen und hat damit inzwischen die Führung bei der Höhe übernommen. Unsere Wildcard entwickelt sich weiterhin kräftig und vital und macht ihrem bisherigen Ruf als kleines Monster alle Ehre. Bei allen drei Damen sind die ersten Blüten inzwischen deutlich zu erkennen. Zum Glück scheint der Stretch gegen Ende der zweiten Blütewoche endlich langsam auszutrudeln. Die täglichen Höhenzuwächse werden geringer und das Wachstum verlagert sich zunehmend in Richtung Blütenbildung. Darüber bin ich wirklich froh, denn nach oben ist mittlerweile kaum noch Luft. Um überhaupt noch die letzten verfügbaren Zentimeter aus dem Zelt herauszuquetschen, musste sogar der Aktivkohlefilter nach draußen umziehen. 😅 Jetzt dürfen die drei ihre Energie wirklich gerne in die Blüten stecken. Düngung und Pflege Die Grundversorgung läuft weiterhin hauptsächlich über die BioTabs im Substrat. Deshalb bleiben wir mit zusätzlicher Düngung nach wie vor eher zurückhaltend. Mit dem langsam auslaufenden Stretch und der zunehmenden Blütenbildung verschiebt sich der Fokus jetzt darauf, die Pflanzen gesund und gleichmäßig versorgt durch die kommenden Blütewochen zu bringen. Gesundheit und Schädlingskontrolle Insgesamt machen alle drei Kandidatinnen weiterhin einen gesunden und vitalen Eindruck. Ganz los sind wir unsere ungebetenen Gäste allerdings noch nicht. 😅 Die Thripse zeigen sich wieder, deshalb läuft unser Nützlingsprogramm weiter und die Situation wird genau beobachtet. Melonade bleibt insgesamt die empfindlichste der drei und reagiert insbesondere auf die hohe Lichtintensität. Pinky steckt das Ganze bislang deutlich gelassener weg, während Blue Zushi weiterhin sehr robust wirkt. Beleuchtung Unser kleines Experiment mit 730 nm Far-Red geht weiter. Mittlerweile läuft Far-Red allerdings nur noch für etwa 15 Minuten als End-of-Day-Behandlung am Ende der Lichtphase. Zusätzlich ist jetzt 660 nm Deep Red dazugekommen und läuft für ein paar Stunden in der Mitte der Lichtphase. Fazit Blütewoche 2 hat die Unterschiede zwischen unseren drei Kandidatinnen noch deutlicher gemacht. Melonade überrascht weiterhin mit ihrem starken Stretch und ihrer offenen Struktur, Pinky bleibt unser kompakter kleiner Busch – und zeigt abends von allen am deutlichsten, wann für sie Feierabend ist – und Wildcard Blue Zushi hat inzwischen die Führung bei der Höhe übernommen. Am meisten freut mich aber, dass der Stretch jetzt endlich langsam auszutrudeln scheint. Nachdem wir selbst den Aktivkohlefilter aus dem Zelt werfen mussten, um noch die letzten Zentimeter herauszuquetschen, darf es nach oben jetzt wirklich gerne etwas ruhiger werden. 😅 Die ersten Blüten sind da – jetzt kann die eigentliche Show beginnen. Rocko’s Runtz Rumble – Am Ende zählt nur, welche Runtz am härtesten rumbled! 🥊🔥💚🌱✌️

New strain, new led grow light, new organic dry amendment fertilizer, new climate controller. Kicking it up a notch this round.

Hey yall! Another week down. A lot has happened. To start, we up-potted from the red solos into my living soil blend that I have been working on for almost a year. It's so full on living creatures and beneficials. I used to have fungus gnats a lot when working with living soil, it's almost impossible to avoid. .. Then enters beneficials; we have black soldier Flys, persimillis predatory mites, definitely earth worms, most likely a mix of night crawlers. No more fungus gnats, I highly recommend using beneficial nematodes, cucumeris and persimillis predatory mites are excellent (swirski predatory mites are expensive). Just look at the Soil Food Web and identify what pest you have, then purchase their predators from a trusted insectary. Anyways I added another 200watt LED and spread out the plants in a 2' X 4' tent. It's extremely dry in my location and having the heat on makes the air even drier. So getting my VPD stable has been an immense challenge. Right now Also we need to be able to add VPD or at least GD needs a built in calculator to help folks with VPD, Vapor Pressure Deficite. As of right now I am sitting at 0.85 VPD, so pretty good for today. I have 4 humidifiers and have had to hang moistened towels on the doors of the room I am growing in. It literally has been a huge challenge to keep the humidity high enough for my VPD to be in range for the young plants I have now. Good thing is my current humidity without running any humidifiers is perfect for the flowering stage, so I can't wait to move this along. As for topping and training; like I said I really want to move these ladies into flowering sooner than later. I have several reasons to do limited training so I can limit my veg time, also getting this crop done as fast as possible is best for my set up. Until I can get a larger house 🏠 😩 because we got a baby on the way 👶 so need to make space. I have made compost tea twice this past week, wetting the soil and also spraying the leaves. My sprayer broke so I ended up pouring the tea on the plants gently, I got worm castings on the leaves lol. Gently rubbing that off once they dried. Also I applied the tea at night. My tea recipe: Reverse Osmosis water, 2 to 4 gallons I bubble that with added minerals for a day Add 2-3 cups of Activated worm castings (To activate the castings I added about 3 gallons of high quality castings with what I consider to be nutrient amendments, SO I add = kelp meal, neem cake, organic coconut flour, organic corn meal, organic wheat flour, and organic cold milled flax seeds and let that sit for a week then add about 2 to 3 cups of that mix to the tea) I also add biology from about a cup of 2 different soil mixes I have around my compost bin, just trying to get a more diverse biology by adding those two different soil sources. And mind you the grow beds I took the soil from has been organic for many years and has a large amount of beneficials and tons of excellent biology. Other than that I bubble that for 12 to 24 hours, with as much air as I can get. I use air stones but you really need to clean them off once you are done brewing. I also have an Air Lift with a large air pump that really works great, K.I.S. Organics sells one that works great or you can build one easily with with PVC pipe and a few adapters from any Home Depot or Lowes. Also I do add DynoMyco to my roots when up-potting. They are an amazing brand that has backed up research, I think they have more propagules per gram of two strains they identified to work great with cannabis. Now having said that, each individual phenotype out of each individual and specific strain/cultivar is going to have different bacteria/fungal strains that it prefers and by growing the same strain, hopefully the same exact cut, and grow 3 to 4 cycles before you truly have the mycelium networks built and fully functional. What I am saying is stop throwing out "used" soil and go over 7 gallons, bigger the better for biodiversity. Stop buying "new" soil, amend your previous beds and pots. You will see a huge difference. Hopefully I can show you all of this with my Grow. Anyways please feel free to ask away any questions! This grow is about saving money 💰 🤑 and growing the best clean medicine as possible.

Growing great I open my tent smells like dead fruit love it 😀 can't wait for these flowers to form and show the true character of this cultivar

Start of week 5 today, everything seems to be going great! The Gelato OG is by far the biggest plant of the bunch so far but they all seem to be taking well to LST, HST , Topping & defoliation! Will be going in the flower tent as soon as the other ladies harvest so they will probably have atleast 2 to 3 more weeks of veg!

🌱 Week 3, Day 7 Update: Buds Are Blooming! 🌿 Hey Grow Fam, We're cruising through Week 3, and my girl is really coming on—buds are starting to form, and it's a sight to behold! The girl is growing so fast now, drinking 4.5L a day. She could even do with in-between waterings, in my opinion. She's aiming for the stars and shooting for the moon, getting bigger every day and stinking out my room. I had to tie my light higher up with some rope as it wouldn't go any higher, and shoots were getting way too close! I did SCROG when flipping, and I should've been a bit more strict on it (did it longer), but now I realize why SCROG is used. Imagine if I never used it—she would be way too tall. Overall, I'm so happy with how she is growing and can't wait to see the final product. :) But, as with any journey, we've hit a little bump in the road. Despite keeping our feeding consistent at 850ppm, the runoff readings have been creeping up. Last check-in showed a runoff of 1400ppm. It's got me thinking we might be dealing with a salt buildup in the root zone. To address this, I'm sticking with our feeding routine at 800-850ppm. If the runoff ppm keeps climbing or if our plants start showing signs of nutrient burn, I will adjust accordingly, but as of right now, I'm sticking to the same feed as she looks great! ( If I do begin to notice signs of nutrient burn (excess), I will try to water with a lower EC/PPM, like 700ppms, to bring it down. But if I don't get the results I'm hoping for, I will just flush the plant with 3x the media size of water (just plain pH water) to wash out any old salts and reset the medium. You don't really want to do this with coco depending on what stage your at in flower, veg on the other hand flush.? Sure!, if you really need to reset that medium go for it, (i do see tiny signs of burn but thats fine if it gets worse then i have a problem) Let's stay focused and keep our eyes on the prize—beautiful healthy buds. We've got this! #GrowUpdate #Week3 #BudsBlooming #KeepGrowing 🌱🌿

Week 8 begins for Amnesia lemon haze. Frost, bulk and a lemon smell that smacks you in the face! Last week of feed before flushing. Thanks for stopping by, tune in next week! 👽🌳🔥

Final 🥦

Ich habe diesen Giganten irgendwie auf den dachboden bekommen.Nun steht sie unter 12h Licht und ich hoffe,dass sie sicht nicht all zu stark strecht.

1/30/21Saturday morning had me lounging, watering, pruning and a photo shoot. I am hoping for a quick recovery from the middle plant after some pruning was done. I was hoping it would stretch one last time so I could move the light but I am parked there for the time. ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND! 1/31/21Yesterday’s work paid off and the plants look a bit more on the dank side today. Today’s feeding day which mean the last for week 11. Happy Growing

This week has gone well. 6 plants in such a small space is playing havoc with the humidity but I feel I'm just about on it enough not to cause any rot. The Caramelicious is just plain awesome so far, bending the main cola 90 degrees hasn't effected her at all. She has a couple of issues but she is my favourite so far. I normally give a 90 day slot for each grow, but this one may finish a bit earlier with how rapid its developing. Notes. Extractor settings.

Week number 4 , I had to swap the 55w neons ramps for the HID 600w MH , plants were overtaking the light coverage surface meaning it’s time to give some more growing space under more coverage ! Also, I will start giving the first feeding by the end of the week, around 700ppm’s / 1.4mS, Cellmax Soil Mix is pre-fertilized ( like most of all horticultural Soil Mix ) and as you can see plants didn’t need any extra feeding ! Topping the plants at the 3rd node at the seedlings stage didn’t make any stress at all , they just have redirected the energy in the sides shoots as you can see on the video. (Tip of the week : If you wanna play the chemist with your super duper nootz without burning your sh*t you better get an EC/TDS meter 😉 Following this diary to the end will learn you how to Water/or/Feed your plants) [Day 24] I was planning to Feed the plants by the end of the week, but as always things can changes from what you were expecting 😊 - Water + Earth Grow Mix + RootBooster + AllZymes [Day 27] - Water (P.S: Looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control 🐞) This Diary is updated daily ☝️

So far so good. Btw the are naturally became healthy after moving in country side with bunch of friendly biocontrol insects. The environment is also perfect. She grow so fast

Soaked seeds in plain water for less than 24 hours and all had taproots emerging. Went into Rapid Rooter Cubes in a humidity dome. Less than 48 hours from first placing seeds in water we got 100% germination rate 💪

Purple Punch am 26.12.2024 Tag 28 / 25.01.2025 Die Purple Punch habe ich ein Topping und LST unterzogen, sie hat sich sehr schnell erholt von Topping; eigentlich habe ich keine negative Reaktion bemerkt, das einzige ist wenn ich mit Biobizz dünge, macht die Pflanze einen gewaltigen Wachstumsschub. Feedback: Ich habe unterhalb zwei Blätter entfernt, mit dem Entlaubung bin ich sehr vorsichtig. Die Pflanze werde ich gut wachsen lassen, und die große Blätter nach und nach entfernen. Ich könnte mehr Blätter entfernt, aber in der Vergangenheit habe ich Fehler gemacht. Ich habe festgestellt das die Pflanzen in Light Mix besser wachsen, einmal Gisse ich die Pflanzen mit Dünger von BioBizz und einmal ohne Dünger. Soweit ich das sehe ist eine Überdüngung ausgeschlossen, gerne nehme ich Ratschläge aus der Community an. Feedback am 29. Januar 2025 Die Entlaubung von Purple Punch war für meiner Sicht erfolgreich, die Vorgehensweise nach und nach die Entlaubung durchzuführen hat die Pflanze nicht gestresst.

I will mainline the first, only top once de second, and only low stress train the last.
