Hi growmies, The plants are in full flower now and have been defoliated after the hst of last week and seems like she has recovered. I had removed the filter and vent from the box and have the vent suck the air out of the box into the carbon filter, which gave me another 10 cm to play with. The plant consumes around 2 l of nutrient solution in 24 hours. This whole experience is howling me that I have to change the system in the box as I loose to much height with the grow table and the rockwool blocks. Will probably run a 20 l DWC in it, that I am currently working on.

Week 10! Only a few more to go then glory!! Watering regular 2L every 3 days. Use of GHE nutrients I have been using half dose so I don't get a nutrient lockout. Saw a few GNATS flying around my tent!! Put out a few Sticky Stiks to catch them and gave a light spay of insecticide with the light off for half hour. I also put up a fly strip, not to hopeful? This could be a problem if not caught right away!! First thing I gotta do is stop watering them,dry out to kill the larvae in the top inch of the soil. The best way to kill fungus gnats and other crawlers is Diatomaceous Earth Powder. Sprinkle on top of soil, works great. Gnats are gone now took 3 days.

📋Comment I do like this strain, I wouldn't have joined this competition if I didn't like it. 📋 Data Seed to havest=105 days. Veg time=28 days. Flower time=77 days. Wet weight=609g Dry weight=50g 📋 Smoke report I started trimming after she had been hanging for 14 days. Had time to trim 30g and did the remainder the night after. The buds went into groove bags on 6/5/25. The trim is frosty so I'll do a hash run, there was only 4g of larfy buds which will go into my hash run. 25/6/25 Had a sample, by far the strongest runtz i have grown. Highly impressed, 📋Grow stats for GDG 23 #1 Runtz=50g #2 Fat Bastard=86g Total=136g Lights on. 20hrs×7days=140hrs 18hrs×21days=378hrs 12hrs×77days=924hrs Total hours=1442hrs Light power=147.73Kw Rad power=105.69Kw Extractor=34.12Kw 4 gang=47.02Kw Top fan=17.72Kw Total electricity=352.28KW Electricity cost @£0.25/Kw=£88.07 Average light power a day=1.4Kw Average watt per hour=102w g/watt=(136÷102)=1.33g/w £/g=£0.64/g 📋Final word. I should have been more proactive then reactive with this plant, if I had raised her a lot sooner she would have produced a bit more and fought for more space. I'm happy with with my results from the grow. Runtz is always a good strain to have. I'm also loving the green sensation, and the Plagon tera nutes, last 2 grows have had lots of frost since switching to them. Unfortunately I didn't win the Eternity Cup or place in the top 10. I have looked through loads of the diaries that entered and damn there was some 🔥 diaries, what a great competition to have been apart off. Congratulations to @Cauli, @naujas, @DogDoctorOfficial, for placing in the top 3 of the Eternity cup, excellent diaries, and congratulations to the remaining winners. 👏👏 to those that haven't kicked off about not winning. It's best to be a loser then a sore loser. Back soon. Take it easy. ********************************************

im not training these at all im strictly watching them grow and studying how they are naturally. messing with the lights a little, and got some light burn on both plants cause the lights were wayy to close. but all that being said im recalibrated with the lights, added in the blurple light just because i wanted more specrtum. growth has been explosive. i incorporated fish shit into every feeding and watering this week and i love it so far.

Hi all 🧑‍🌾 Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update. Hope everyone keeping well and having a good week. Thank you so much for your support on this bananas journey 💜💚💜💚 I am so happy to see how girls are developing in recent days. It's seems that Athena finally stopped her stretch and hoping that Xena will follow her sister very soon. Buds are gaining weight and size rapidly. Lots of nice colours and tonnes of trichomes on those buds already. Week 10 Dec 18-24 Dec 18-19 Mainly observation. Xena is still stretching like crazy. both girls are developing beautifully. Dec 20 First watering for this week. 7.5 ltr beetwen both. Runoffs PH's Athena 6.2 Xena 6.3. Dec 21 Due to lack of light at lower parts of conopy decided for another selective defoliation, lowered a bit tallest branches with colas dangerously close to light by tieing them to netting. Couple cm will make a huge difference here. Could not clear well at the back wall of the cabinet due to limited access.I'm very happy with final result. Dec 22-23 Joyful observation of my 🍌💜👊girls development 🧑‍🌾 Dec 24 All is looking great. It's seems that stretch is finally stopped. Girls looking healthy and happy. Second watering for this week. 8 ltr beetwen both. Both runoffs PH 6.2. It's the end of this week. Happy Xmas everyone 🤶🎄❄️🎁☃️✌️💚🌲🎅🎄 Stay tuned for new week update ✨🍀✨✌️💚

So this week after I gave it under nutrients I apparently gave it too much nitrogen while having a potassium deficiency. Shiney dark leaves, So i fixed that, but some didn't bounce back, and I tried nitrogen. I think they are doing pretty good considering everything I've put them through SO FAR. lol. Nutrients are NPK Raw's total lineup, follow their instructions at first, Fastbuds adjustments as of this week.

Hello again, green warriors and cannabis aficionados! 🌱✨ We’ve now reached week 5 of flowering in our Runtz Battle, and the excitement is at an all-time high! The plants are deep into their flowering phase, and the results are beginning to show in the form of thick, resin-coated buds. Let’s dive into this week’s progress and explore what’s been happening. Week 5 Flowering Progress 🌿🌟 The Runtz strains continue to impress as they head into the final stretch of flowering. Here’s what’s been happening: • Bud Development 🌸: • The buds have significantly bulked up this week, with trichome production reaching new heights. The plants are covered in a frosty layer of resin, indicating that we’re on track for a potent and flavorful harvest. The F1 strain remains a standout with its compact and dense bud structure, showing off some serious bag appeal already. • Terpene Profile 🌿✨: • The aroma in the grow room is intensifying, with the distinct sweet, fruity, and slightly earthy notes of the Runtz strains becoming more pronounced. This rich terpene profile is a hallmark of the Runtz genetics, and it’s a good sign that the final product will be bursting with flavor. • Environmental Consistency 🌡️: • We’re keeping the environment steady with a room temperature of 30.3°C, water temperature at 18°C, and humidity at 51%. These conditions are perfect for continuing the flowering process and ensuring the buds develop fully and healthily. Defoliation Impact 🌿✂️ Last week’s deep defoliation continues to pay off: • Light Penetration and Bud Growth 🌞🌸: • The defoliation has allowed more light to reach the lower bud sites, and the impact is clear. These buds are now catching up in size and density, ensuring an even distribution of growth across the entire plant. The plants are responding beautifully, with all buds swelling and maturing at a consistent rate. • Air Circulation and Health 🌬️: • The increased airflow has kept the plants healthy, preventing any issues with mold or mildew as the buds become denser. This is crucial in the later stages of flowering when moisture can become a concern. Nutrient and Care Strategy 🌱💧 Our nutrient and care routine continues to support the plants as they push toward full maturity: • Watering and Nutrients 💧: • The Autopots are still providing consistent hydration, and we’re maintaining the Regulator and CaMg Boost in the reservoir. The soil, enriched with organic inputs, is doing an excellent job of supplying all the necessary nutrients. The plants are showing no signs of deficiencies, and their vibrant green color is a testament to their health. • Lighting and Environmental Control 🌡️: • The Lumatek Zeus 465 Compact Pro is continuing to deliver powerful, full-spectrum light, which is crucial at this stage for maximizing bud development and resin production. • The TrolMaster Hydro-X controller is keeping the environment perfectly balanced, ensuring that the plants are stress-free and focused on producing the best buds possible. The Road Ahead 🌟🌿 As we move into the final weeks of flowering, the anticipation is building. The Runtz strains are looking and smelling incredible, with dense buds covered in sparkling trichomes. The next few weeks will be crucial as the plants finish maturing, and we start preparing for the harvest. Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the finish line. The end is in sight, and we’re almost ready to reap the rewards of this epic Runtz Battle! 🌟💚 #RuntzBattle #Week5Flower #CannabisCommunity #BudDevelopment #TrichomesOnFleek #GreenMagic #LumatekZeus #TrolMasterHydroX #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 💚

So Zkittles finally has the place to herself after the Pineapple Express was harvested yesterday ( it’s the fruit ) . With room to spread her out now she’s loving all that extra light and air flow and is becoming the biggest auto I’ve ever grown with a stench that needs covering up with candles and dryer sheets at the exhaust vent … ( good problems to have ) All going to plan a few more weeks of fattening her up some and it will be a successful grow .

I got busy and missed my week 2 of flower update. But here’s week three. This strain has been putting in work. The stretch is decent and I feel like they still have a little more stretch in them. I did a little leaf stripping but planning on doing a lot more in the next day or so. There is a decent amount of tops coming through the first layer of trellis. I’ll keep the girls happy and hopefully she’ll make me happy on harvest day. All in all no complaints about this strain as of yet.

3.9.2024: Start of week 8. Day 50 from seed, 46 from sprout. Nothing doing today, plant is healthy and getting fatter by the day. Plucked a few leaves but thats it. 3.10.2024: Day 51. Fed 1/4 strength fox farm trio mixed w/ calmag into over a gal of 6.5ph water. Gave roughly 3 liters of the solution. Runoff ppm is finally under 1000. Might increase nutes to 1/2 strength moving forward. Bud development on the main cola is almost half the main stalk now. I'm no pro when it comes to taking pictures so its hard for me to get clear, detailed shots of the nugs. 3.11.2024: Day 52, 48 from sprout. Moving along nicely. 3.12.2024: Day 53. Fed 1/4 strength, roughly 96oz at 6.4ph. I broke the feed/water/feed schedule and fed twice in a row. Also did some lite defoliation on the bottom fan leaves that weren't getting light. 3.13.2024: Day 54 from seed. Plant is doing its thing. 3.14.2024: Day 55. Fed again at 1/4 strength, 96oz at 6.6ph. Runoff ppm was 880. 3.15.2024: Day 56 from seed, 52 from sprout.

What a week!! I am going to do some tie downs and put up the net today or tomorrow. I also flipped it to 12-12 today. Flower time! Ok so I had the lights way to close. I raised it up at least another 12" and also turned it down to 65%. Everyday I raised it a little more and kept seeing an improvement. I only saw signs of light burn not heat burn. I guess this light has some power! My smart plug says it's running at 660w now. Can't wait to see the flowers in about a month!!! Let's

Algunas de las plantas tienen un pequeño exceso de abono de hace unos días, alguna punta de hoja quemada, sin más. Empezamos la semana con un par de riegos solo con agua y algo de calmag y continuamos con el calendario de abono.
