19-11-2021: Still 4 weeks left... Buds are starting to swell, I think I have to harvest the Runtz a week earlier. Lowered CO2 to 800PPM. Lowered EC to 1.8. Will replace the water by end of the week. 21-11-2021: Some people suggesting I should use PK13/14... But they are not telling why.. Honestly... I have no clue what it could do for me. Already using Green Sensation from Plagron with clearly says..."When you use Green Sensation you don't need a PK fertilizer, enhancer, booster or enzymes!". So I am just continuing as I do. @Hazeydays... Was just rereading your comment but cannot find any grow diary from you :(. Why do you think I should add PK13/14?You said (3 weeks ago) your ladies are in week 7 and 3 times as big as mine. What do you mean by that? Because I think it is quite normal that plants in week 7 flower are bigger then plants I week 1 flower. Do you have a link to your diary? Thanks in advance 23-11-2021: As you can see some buds seem already to be ready for harvest. Very strange, only 56 days of 12/12 now. (I started counting flower on day 27 of 12/12 so only 29 days of real flower. I was told this might be due to adding Green Sensation too early but I would expect all the ladies would suffer from it then. It is just one. Even the lady which is in the same bin doesn't show any signs of amber trichomes. Very Very strange. 24-11-2021: Buds seem to swell very fast now overnight. Looking and smelling great. Today my fans will arrive so from tonight on they will have some windy conditions I hope.

12/15: Lowered the lights a little bit and installed a new fan to increase airflow. Starcandy is the garden star..she's be the best producer and smells wonderful...can't quite put my finger on it yet..a little less fuel nose than the last ones....more of a sweet smell. Skunk is stating to bud up pretty quickly now, but has no malodorous emanations as of yet. Starcandy x Gelato is still very much in the lead and frosting up very nicely. Starcandy x Strawberry Cheesecake smells killer....just wish she was bigger. Pineapple Express is starting to fatten. She has very thick pistils and smells just like she's supposed to now. Strawberry Pie doesn't seem like she's gonna stretch much... 12/16: Fed today. SP is frosting up already ..still no stank from the Skunk..

This is the end of the 6th week. (Thats a little japanese bonsai in with it) Feeling like it isnt coming along as well as it should be.. Its fanning out like mad, but not growing up, stayed the same height for the week. I shifted it into a pot that wasnt clear as suggested and topped it and snipped a few other buts underneath off. Also my light arrived which is currently on 80% and at height of 450mm/45cm/17.7 inches My nutrients n shit haven't arrived yet, been waiting on those for a week thanks to a postal strike. So I had tiny barely visible bugs, which seem to have disappeared, not under leaves or crawling around anymore. Would they be what has caused my spots and drooping/clawing? Or is it simple because of my light, lack of food, too much water? Very much need some help with this.

Just about ready for harvest. Middle of this week will be 9 weeks of flower. I think they still need just a few more days. I had a chance to sample some nuggage I've trimmed in the past week or two and it's really got my excitement through the roof Happy with the way they look overall. Buds could be a bit bigger but can't really complain for my first grow. Have had issues with humidity and temp all winter. Apartment is too drafty for hvac to keep up. Not to mention the issue with the power loss a few weeks ago. Really just happy that it worked lol... looking forward to spring / summer If I'm being completely honest, the tent smells like literal dogshit when I unzip it. But if i rub a sugar leaf between two fingers it smells like DANK. Very strong piney smell which I'm pleased with lol. The smell has emanated from the tent the past two weeks or so. Carbon filter has had trouble the scent is kind of overpowering Can't keep my eyes off plant C; literally dripping in trichomes. It might be the smallest but it's the prettiest for sure. Check out the video. Plant D has the most bud mass. Over the past few weeks I've been trimming away some of the lower bud sites and fan leaves along with some of the dying fan leaves. This is plants second week without nutes so as expected leaves are starting to turn darker in color. Likely will cut out water for a couple days right before cutting

Hi guys, Hope you are all doing well in these difficult times the upside is you can spend more time on this amazing hobby of ours. Another week has passed and i have a few updates we are still growing on a 24 light schedule and im thinking about switching to 18-6 for the following week-week and a half of veg fase, The growth is good but they are not very thirsty which concerns me a little but we will see what will happen. 3 of the plants have a little defect which shows it self in weird looking leaves and stunned growth don't know what is up with that but we will also see what the future brings, experience tells me that although the plant may look a little retarted that does not mean that these will not grow to be amazing plants with a big harvest very curious to see how they are going to develop further down the road. I stopped giving the Hy-pro Terra i love the company and their products but there is something with the Terra line that does not make me happy although it's very easy to use just one component as a base and a few optional additives it doens't give me the results i expect so i made the switch to Hy-pro Hydro Part A+B and within a day or 3 the plants have a fuller green color and the development of the plant overall is very noticeable and the stem is getting steurdier and thicker. As for the lights they are still hanging on the same height as i started and i gave it a little more power the plants are stretching towards the light just like i wanted and when i made the switch to 12-12 i will gradually move the light lower untill it's about 30-35 cm above tha canopy and i may or may not take out met scrog netting i haven't decided yet. That is all for this week Hope you all are doing good stay healty and keep it green Cheers, Nibameca

✨First off, wow. I was just out from the house for 5 days and my first reaction was WOW, it has sprouted so well. ✨ I think one of the best things of this hobby and growing process is when you don't see your plants for several days and when you do, it amazes you every time. Hopefully in a good way. D30: 👉 Looking more closely I see that the plant wasn't up for the upped dosage of nutes. 😿 I see nutrient burn on leaves and they are all curled down. 🌊 Gave it a good flush hoping it will regain balance. Will sligthly adjust the amount of nutes this week. 👉 I've adjusted this weeks nutrition information to the adjusted schedule. 💡 I don't know if flush is absolutely necessary, but I don't want to risk it. Decided to give it good 2-3 flushes on aone shower session. I know this will also equal as over watering, but I think it's less an issue than overdosage of nutes. This is what can happen if you decide to (slightly) give more nutes to the plant and then leave the house for 5 days. 🤦‍♂️ 💡🌻 Second thing I see is that okay, seems like this auto flower baby is starting to build buds. Wasn't hoping to see this either as I was planning to give the plant some LST/HST. Which I decided I will still do, because the space is tight, alright. I have no idea if I'm going to stress the plant too much now. But I have to do this one and will stop immediately if it seems to go to hell. ✍️ Note to self: "To hell with auto flowers." 😾 👉 Setup change: I used to only have my 2x20W LEDs, now added the other 2x20W for blooming phase transfer, in total 2x20W grow & 20x20W bloom. I will start the shift to bloom this ongoing week and switch to all 4x20W blooming lights with 12/12 change. 💡 Lots of changes coming in this week. Will it be too much for it to handle? We'll see! D31: 👉 Seems like it's handling the change well for now. I'm going to water it once the soil dries up a bit. I'm gonna make a shift from Alga Grow to Alga Bloom and gonna 50/50 them for the first transition week. Updated diary nutrients to match what I'm going to do. ✨🌿 Amount of shoots seems promising, about 8-9 of them. D32: 👉 This thing is looking better and better by the day. I'm getting super excited as I already thought that I've screwed up with this. 😻 👉 As this is the transition week, I'm doing a lot of micro managing of the environment and to the plant itself: ⚡️ I've tightened all of the strings for better control of the canopy of my baby ⚡️ I also shifted some of the big leafs of taller shoots under short shoot leafs in order to give them a proper amount of light as well ⚡️ I've organized the lighting to be in order of: Grow Bloom Grow Bloom (=4 strips of LEDS) 💡 I'm still worried about the tips of leaves as they are showing signs of over watering (because of flush) on top of the nute-burn. 💧 Even though of the signs of over watering, I will give a 0.5L of nutrition water so the grow process keeps on going and there will be no shortages to nutes distribution for the baby. This might be dumb tho. After this, I will wait out for it to fully dry. D34: 👉 Looking better and better, more lil beginnings of buds showing up and LSTing is going rather well. I've made minor changes to the strings every day for full control of the canopy and now even the most shortest shoots are leveling up to the tallest ones. Mission accomplished in my books. The bright green shoots and the amount of them is just 😻😻😻 ✨🌿 Amount of shoots seems promising, about 16 of them. 👉 I've made changes to lighting schedule, last night they had first ever 16/8 lighting, next night will be 14/10 and the night after that we going in 12/12 mode as first official week of flowering is starting (even though there are little bud hair here and there already 😋). 👉 Today I've added 3rd bloom-light making the order of lights G B B B. ❓ Why am I doing things so gradually? Well I just love to micro manage and I'm here to make sure the plant will not go into any shock because of sudden changes to environment. I know it wouldn't go, BUT.. I think I've shocked it enough with my inaccurate nutrition planning + over watering.

i didn’t defoliate this week on this girl. I don’t think she needs it, and I don’t want to risk stunting her. The structure is open enough that it shouldn’t be an issue.

🌱 Week 4 Veg: Thriving Despite the Chill 🌟 As we close out Week 4 of veg, I couldn’t be more impressed with how resilient and strong the Zamnesia Runtz are growing! Despite the freezing cold temperatures outside—evident in some snapshots of my frosty mint plants in the veggie garden—these beauties are thriving in their cozy indoor setup. The Aptus Holland Nutrient Spray: A Deep Dive This week, I treated the Runtz to a refreshing shower with Aptus Holland’s nutrient spray, a game-changer in plant health and vigor. Let’s break it down: • What Is It? Aptus nutrient sprays are foliar feeds designed to deliver essential nutrients directly to the leaves. They provide immediate uptake, bypassing the roots and giving the plant a quick boost in vitality. • Why Use It? Foliar feeding is especially beneficial during veg because it enhances nutrient absorption and promotes lush, healthy foliage. It’s also a fantastic way to supplement nutrients if the roots are growing but not yet absorbing nutrients at peak efficiency. • What Does It Do? Aptus sprays improve plant metabolism, strengthen cellular structure, and boost resistance to environmental stresses—perfect for battling those colder temps! • How I Applied It I used a fine mist to ensure even coverage across all leaves, aiming for the undersides where stomata are most active. Afterward, the plants looked vibrant and energized, ready to keep pushing those gorgeous leaves. A New Partnership: Grove Bags and TerpLoc Technology I’m thrilled to announce a new partnership with Grove Bags! Known for their TerpLoc technology, these bags are a true revolution in cannabis storage and curing. • Why Grove Bags? Grove Bags are designed to create the perfect microclimate for cannabis. Their TerpLoc technology helps preserve terpenes—the essential oils responsible for the flavor, aroma, and effects of cannabis—by locking them in while allowing oxygen and moisture to escape. • How They Work TerpLoc bags combine several unique layers: • Moisture Control: Maintains ideal humidity levels to prevent over-drying or mold. • Oxygen Barrier: Blocks excessive oxygen exposure, which can degrade terpenes. • UV Protection: Shields the buds from harmful light that can alter their chemical composition. • Why This Matters For anyone who’s spent months cultivating a crop, ensuring the harvest cures and stores properly is the final crucial step. Grove Bags will play an essential role in preserving the quality and flavor of this Runtz grow, keeping the terps intact for that unforgettable smoke experience. A big thank you to Grove Bags for joining this journey. I can’t wait to showcase their role in the final stages of this grow! Photo Magic: Nikon P900 & Sony A6000 Capturing the Runtz in all their glory is part of the journey, and this week’s shots were nothing short of stunning. Using both the Nikon P900 and Sony A6000 allowed for crisp, detailed photos that highlight the beauty of these young plants. From their vibrant green tones to the intricate structure of their leaves, these images tell the story of strength and potential. Week 4 Veg: What It Means Week 4 in veg is a critical time in a grower’s journey. By now, the plants have developed a strong root system and are focusing on building structure. This is when: • Leaf Development Peaks: Bigger leaves mean more photosynthesis and energy production. • Growth Accelerates: Plants use this time to set the foundation for flowering, with nodes spacing out and stems thickening. • Preparation for Transplanting: Root systems are expanding, making it the perfect time to plan for a move into larger pots, as we’ll be doing next week! Looking Ahead Next week, the Runtz will graduate to larger pots—not their final AutoPot homes yet, but an essential step for continued growth. This transition will help the roots spread further, setting the stage for a thriving flowering phase. Community & Gratitude A huge thank you, as always, to my sponsors and supporters: • Aptus Holland • Pro-Mix Soil • TrolMaster Ecosystem • ThinkGrow LED • Future of Grow LED • CannaKan Germination Station • Zamnesia and Plagron for making this Eternity Cup journey so special • Ziggi Papers • And now, our newest partner: Grove Bags To the amazing Grow Diaries community, you continue to inspire me daily. I’ve been blown away by the incredible work and creativity I’ve seen in other diaries—it’s motivating and humbling all at once. Good luck to everyone; let’s make this journey one to remember! 💚 Final Thoughts From the frosty outdoors to the warmth of my grow room, these Runtz are proving their resilience and promise. Each week, I’m reminded of why I fell in love with this strain, and the excitement for what’s to come keeps growing. Stay tuned for Week 5, where we’ll delve into the transplant process, nutrient updates, and more. Let’s keep learning, growing, and sharing the magic together!
