day 49 just pure water phed down. it is day 51, morning before lights on, I might chop today. I use a zero water filter pitcher got off walmart. My humidifier is only a sonic wave. If you use regular tap water it will get gunky in a sonic humidifier. If you have a heat humidifier that boils the water the mist should be clean. These are the 2 types of water humidifiers. Researching best water filters this "zero water" also comes with a free ppm meter! yay! Other water pitcher brands; the water still has ppm. So water misted will still have ppm contamination. You can easily used distilled water only, and reverse osmosis. I just fill a 4gal office water jug with the pitcher and fill my humidifier when needed. I do not use a humidifier in my entire grow up to this point when I chop, I need the perfect rh or this whole effort can fail. growing up to this point only requires 20% effort, chopping now for the 2 weeks dry is this 80% of crucial determination, succeed. A lot of tasks are required today for a clean chop. I feel confident, observed my cross seeds with pink paradise and one with a slightly open caylex looks dark enough for successful germination. I figured 8-16 seeds may be created, 3-4 buds were potentially pollinated. Many growers don't understand when creating genetics with female/female there is a slight chance of herm. You lose 50% of your genetic function. Just water last 2 days, no humic no folvic, 1st time entire grow ha! There is a lot of cleaning to do, remove the trees, clean the entire tent and environment with bleach water, hacksaw. I am very proud of my grow. I have sampled 3 of the strains, dr. thunder legit made my lips numb but it could have just been the terps removing my skin cells from the sticky filter, no lie. This is my best grow to date. I did this for you, and to document hype or not under the best conditions I could give my plants, full max potential, although I wish I had more lights, I am not looking for industrial lol, this is how I grow. Learn a lot on youtube and podcasts there is many good content and I may dab into it. You can have a room full of growers and you have 1 seed in your hand, they will all tell you that their way is correct ;) and the best way. Oreo is stinky AF, Bridal is just amazing glad its massive, just not into sativa but the test seemed slight sativa with majority indica, pink untested, dr, thunder just a lip numming plant aha, its very nice, all 4 amazing appeal like advertised, and excited for next run. Either crosses from this or other copycat genetics. I will give you beautiful glamout shots today, the sizes of the plants, My guesstimate bridal 1lb, thunder 1lb, pink, 0.4lb, bridal 0.5, I am ambitious off 640w lm301h, and 4x 20w blurples daisy chained. day 51 4 chopped see you in a few weeks :D

She is still going well. She hasn't really bulked up a lot. She started a nother run on stigma production. That means more bud production/ density. She is still getting nutes for this week and then I'm going to start my flush next week. I need at least 27 grams to enter in to the harvest cup and I think that's all she might produce. I broke out the microscope, her trichromes are still predominantly clear so she still has some time. I'm going for a 20-30 amber percentage.

Hey, green warriors and cannabis connoisseurs! 🌱✨ We’re now into week 2 of the flowering stage in our Runtz Battle, and the excitement is building! Our plants are thriving, and the first signs of budding are beginning to show. Let’s dive into the progress and take a closer look at how these beauties are developing. Week 2 Flowering Progress 🌿🌟 As we move further into the flowering phase, here’s what’s been happening: • Bud Formation Begins 🌸: • The Runtz plants are now focusing their energy on flower production. Tiny buds are starting to form at the nodes, and you can already see the potential for a bountiful harvest. The plants are strong and healthy, with dense, vibrant foliage. • F1 Compactness Continues 🌟: • The F1 strain remains the most compact of the group, showcasing tight internodal spacing. This compact structure is ideal for maximizing yield and creating dense, resinous buds. Environmental and Nutrient Update 🌡️💧 We’re maintaining our focus on providing the optimal environment and nutrients to support strong flowering: • Watering and Nutrients 💧: • The Autopots are doing their job, keeping the plants consistently hydrated with a TDS of 400 and pH of 6.2. This balance is crucial for nutrient uptake and overall plant health as they develop their flowers. • We’re continuing with Regulator and CaMg Boost in the reservoir. The rich, living soil is supplying most of the nutrients, allowing the plants to flourish with minimal additional inputs. This organic approach is part of our test run to see just how effective the soil’s biolife and nutrient mix can be throughout the entire growth cycle. • Environmental Conditions 🌡️: • Temperature: Room temperature is stable at 30.3°C, with a cool water temp of 18°C, keeping the roots happy and healthy. • Humidity: With an RH of 51%, we’re in the perfect range to avoid mold and mildew while still encouraging robust bud growth. Lighting and Growth 🌟💡 Our lighting setup continues to play a crucial role in the plants’ development: • Lumatek Zeus 465 Compact Pro 💡: • The Lumatek Zeus is delivering intense, full-spectrum light, which is essential for strong bud development. The even light distribution is helping to ensure that all parts of the plants receive the energy they need to produce thick, resinous buds. • TrolMaster Hydro-X Controller 🌡️: • The TrolMaster system continues to manage the growing environment with precision, ensuring that the plants are kept within the ideal temperature, humidity, and light parameters. This control is vital as we move deeper into the flowering phase, where consistency is key to maximizing yield and quality. Looking Ahead 🌟🌿 As we head further into flowering, the excitement continues to build. The Runtz plants are thriving, showing early promise for a beautiful and bountiful harvest. With the environmental conditions and nutrient strategy finely tuned, we’re on track for a successful flowering period. Stay tuned for more updates as these buds continue to develop and the Runtz Battle heats up! Here’s to another week of growth, discovery, and green magic. 🌟💚 #RuntzBattle #Autopots #CannabisCommunity #FloweringPhase #PlantHealth #GreenMagic #NutrientStrategy #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 💚

Week 6 of flowering 10/23/24 Changed nutrients to fit week 6 Buds are getting even bigger and thicker. Defoliated a little. Noticed a PH of 4.8 in runoff, same as the late stage of flower in my previous grow. After lowering feed EC, CalMag on max strength, flushing with 0.8ec nutes for 3 days in a row, nothing changed and PH stayed the same. Read in a forum thread about constant low PH in the rootzone when growing in coco. Got great info about CEC, water, nutrients and little chemistry from a detailed explanation. (https://www.icmag.com/threads/recurring-problem-with-low-ph-in-coco.338385/page-2#post-10843765) Flushed plants with tap water + calmag, PH 6.5. Used 120L total for 4 plants in 2 days. 1st day: flushed after lights on, did not water until 2 hours before lights off and flushed again. Runoff PH went up a little, but not to the correct range. 2nd day: flushed after lights on and checked runoff EC + PH, of each plant. Fortunately, PH got corrected to 5.8, and I returned to automatic watering 4 times a day (with 10%-20% runoff). Thoughts: In the last grow, I thought I had a problem because of salts buildup in the media with constantly low PH in late flower. I didn't fully correct the problem till chop day. Same problem here in the same stage of flower without the salt buildup. After reading every forum I could find about the problem, I understood that my bloom nutes were the main problem because of their chemical composition. The coco ability to exchange ions lead to the low PH in the rootzone. It got worse quickly because I did not use any tap water with the feedings, so the PH could swing easily and drastically without resistance. After I looked online for the T.A. feeding chart, I saw they used TriPart Grow till week 7 of flower, the Nitrogen type they are using will up the PH. CocoForCannabis chart that I'm using, has not enough nitrogen to combat the bloom nutes PH down effect in flower. It gets even worse with RO water because there are no minerals that can resist PH down. Now I'm using 30% tap water with rest RO water, T.A. TriPart feeding chart with calmag and silica. Hopefully I have corrected the problem for the rest of the grow. It wasn't easy, because there were lots of variables that worsened the problem quickly. Now I'm checking runoff PH and EC daily. Update on next week :)

Day 1 - Once sprout popped from jiffy pellet and seed shell fell off I put into solo cup filled with Ocean Forest and in tent under lights. About 6 hours later it started to straighten out upwards. Day 2 - Looking greener and true leaves slowly growing larger Day 3 - Sprayed soil with a bit of water Day 4 - True leaves slowly growing larger and praying upwards looking happy Day 5 - Everything looking fine so far. Seems to be liking current temp and humidity. Day 6 - Changed lighting from 24/0 to 18/6 and watered a bit. Day 7 - Growth is slower than I would like but everything looks ok

Auto Opium has had a rough first week. The neem oil treatment was pretty tough on the seedling. She has started growing since sprayed. There is a mite issue and once I get the flowering plant out if the room I can treat them all. Eliminating anywhere for the pest to hid. So until then just making due the best we can for about a week. Thank you Medic Grow, and Divine Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

this is week 5/6 of my super OG autoflower. I would like some feedback as this is my first grow. Using a small areogarden with 10w led and a separate 80/100w grow light. Red blue bulbs. Not sure the leafs looking that great? What do you guys think? I cut some fan leafs off due to the bottom of the plant not getting so much light. Is this ok to do? Feedback please. Thanks guys

I decided to do a two stage harvest because this plant is very dense there's alot of under growth that hasn't fully matured yet so I've taken off all the top buds first to allow for the under growth to mature a bit more before harvesting. POWER PLANT is a excellent anytime of day smoke the high is outstanding I love to wake 'n' bake with this strain, this is a high yielding plant with pungent and dense buds that have a powerful high.

Wow these girls have fatten up nicely over the last week. I am giving them at least 10 more days. They have some golden hairs and they are starting to get milky. I can't wait to try this strain out. 4/28 they each have grown an inch in a day and a half. Lightly defoliated a few large fan leaves to get light to the smaller buds underneath. This grow has been so easy. They have loved the coco and clay 50/50 mix and my nutes. I haven't increased anything in a few weeks. They have only had a few spots that may have been sun burns from a few light leaks that I noticed and covered with black crayon to fill the spaces, mainly around the zipper seam. Next grow I will increase from 6" pots to 8" self watering pots. They work like hydroponic without the bubbles. Watering twice daily keeps the buildup flushed out and with fresh nute water in the bottom of the pots, I have huge root balls under the inner pot. One or two weeks to go. Pink seems like she will be done first, followed by blue and purple. Green is huge so far but hasn't started to turn golden at all. 5/1 Had a friend stop by who actually works at a grow center and she told me that my babies were ripe and ready to pick. I'm not sure how everyone does it but she told me to pluck as many leaves as I could get to before turning the light off for 24 hours and then chop. She also said to hang the whole plant since they are small autos so I didn't harm the buds in the trimming and drying process. She said once they are dry to trim the remaining leaves for butter and oil for edibles then collect the buds from the stems. Pics will be added tomorrow of the drying setup. Last grow until September because we will be traveling for summer!!

Just waiting it out now. No added nutrients, just water. Bubba and Black Dog have exceeded their expected flowering time, and both are at 95% cloudy with 5% or so still clear. Chemdawg and The New can take up to 70 days or more so we’ll see if they’re late too. Bubba is a foxtailing machine. It was one weekend in early Flower when heat/humidity got out of hand while I was away for 3 days. She hermied a bit and I’ve had my eye out for bananas ever since (find a few every so often). Taking a risk to keep her in the tent with the others but if I catch them early enough the others should be ok. Interestingly I found a YouTube video of a guy that ran bubba and had the same foxtail development (also the same scent description and look overall). Nothing like the gorgeous fat purple budded girl I had last year but the citrus smell on this lime green bud pheno/version is impressive. Curious to see how the smoke compares. Scent combo from all four plants is amazing!
