Germination Report: Runtz vs. Runtz 🌿✨ Hey there, green thumbs and cannabis enthusiasts! 🌱🌟 I'm thrilled to share the exciting details of our Runtz vs. Runtz germination journey. Buckle up, because this ride is packed with fun, knowledge, and a touch of green magic! 🍃💫 The Germination Journey 🌱🚀 Our Runtz seeds were given the royal treatment from the get-go! We kicked things off with the Cannakan method, ensuring our precious seeds had the best start. Here's a step-by-step breakdown: Hydration Stage 💧: Seeds were soaked in water, embracing their first taste of life. This process lasted about 30 hours, allowing the seeds to absorb enough moisture to kickstart germination. Watching those little seeds swell up is always a magical moment! 🌟 Transition to Soil 🌿: After their water bath, the seeds were gently transferred to soil. This crucial step ensures they have the nutrients and environment they need to grow strong and healthy. Each seed was placed in a cozy, nutrient-rich bed, ready to sprout and thrive.

Expect rapid development, especially in the early stages. Keep an eye on those green shoots as they stretch toward the light!

Starting week 6 after a nutrient lockout during week 5. They look better now after a little flush. I stopped the pot to dip in water by putting small stones under. Buds are a week away from slightly lowering temps. I struggle to keep humidity stable after watering. Very proud I fixed the issue with nutrients, as it remains the hardest part for a first grow. Experience is key to analyse and solve problems. Looking forward

Week 11 and the ladies are doing alright. I overfed the LSD auto so I only water her for now and wait how she reacts. Both Runtz Muffin phenos are really frosty already and the smell is amazing💆‍♂️ Some branches also needed a bit of support so i tied them to the main stem

this week was a lil challenging, had to get out of LST due to the fact that I broke a branch and that just tripped me off and I took off all my ties , apart from that i started giving her bloom products because I noticed a few hairs. I started applying tiresias mist to one of my branches so I can get pollen sacks to produce my own fem seeds, as I plan on crossing my fortune cookies autoflower with my ak48 autoflower and creating a new strain called "DRAKO" AUTOFLOWER well till next update . O.G. Bang Bang !! out.....

Harvested #2, 40/60 amber to cloudy trichome ratio, couldn't weigh wet 25/10/24 - Harvested #1, 50/50 amber to cloudy trichome ratio Haven't weighed #2 final dry weight yet, still in the process of trimming #2 final dry weight: 273.9g, just under 10 ounces. 02/11/24 - #1 is dry, haven't had time to trim, in jars until I have time. Estimate #1 will yield more then #2 #1 final dry weight: 351.8g, 12.5 ounces 625.7g total off both plants #2 has better bag appeal, smell is very floral and piney. #1 is not as nice looking in appearance but takes the win for smell, has a strong skunk smell, get a whiff of cat piss whenever the jars are opened as well. Was very prevalent in the final week of flower, kept thinking the cats had got into the room and peed somewhere. Overall happy with the results.

This week I didn’t too much with the because she is still in her seedling fase. I’m just waiting for her to grow her leaves bigger en some more nodes. Ones she do that then I will provide a bigger light source for her and do some training like topping. This week I only water her and keep the life in the ground alive by making sure the earth is not too wet or too dry.

4/28 Day 35 I wish this plant was bigger. Could be my fault. Her transition to flower was at such an odd time(3weeks) and that’s when her last feeding was coming to an end but should I give her flower nutes early? Do half an half? Or just wait and then give flower? I waited and I shouldn’t have considering that organic inputs take time to feed your plants. Depending on what you’re using. First time trying Gaia green. I do like the ease of it but it would take some adjustments for me to utilize it best. A month between feeding is too long for my impatient ass and it gives me too long of a commitment to not fuck up. I’m also using roots organics with some other plants and I’m really liking the weekly feedings. It makes more sense than a month. What if I have a strain that’s like 10 week flower? Do I just do another dose at week 7 and 8 and then because it’s “organic you don’t need to flush” thing. Probably over thinking it but yeah here’s my plant yall 😂

This will be the last week of summer camp and as expected nothing went as planned. The 91 Grapes will be the best and last plant to be harvested. I think she will yield between three and four ounces of finished product and the buds are simply amazing. Hard as rock and covered with resin with plenty of terpines to go around as well. After receiving a good dose of molasses on Saturday she smells amazing Sunday afternoon and those buds continue to swell. She is ready at any given moment for the next few days it really just boils down to when I want to devote a couple of hours of trimming her up.

Veg Week 7 Day 49 to 55 - 4/8 to 4/14 This week is primarily test training recovery and stretch setting for flower. Follow-up on the breaks confirms the last statement: So as I said, little to no damage will produce average branches (prone to weight breaks later in flower as discovered in my first grow) Small to slightly moderate break of green and evenly crushed stem can create heavy knuckles with large waterways through hardwood. This provides great support without hindering growth and actually seems to encourage it. Moderate to heavy rips with no back support will runt growth and support; if not die off from lack of attention to the issue. However if back supported immediately, it can recover with a little extra time but lost days of growth will be replaced with recovery days instead. Feed this week was again an auto pot reservoir feed at 500ppm total before add-ins. I used 400ppm Veg concentrate mix (recipe week 2) and introduced 100ppm Bloom concentrate mix (recipe week 5). I also added 1ml/gal of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) and ph balance this week was for 5.9 Video HST Branch crushing and bending to train waterways for stretch in flower. The more I do here, the less I have to do later. Next week I plan to monitor the training of the branches and feed 500ppm at 5.8ph. All I am trying to do now is set the growth of the colas/branches to where I want them to flower and stretch from now that I can see which are going to be more productive in size.

BAM 💥 Exploding with buds, way nicer plants then on my first try with these gorillas. Even tho they are in the shadow of the ginormous green cracks, that have vegged for over a month longer, these baby’s are doing magnificent. Huge frosty buds that look like they are gonna get a whole lot bigger in the coming weeks.

Coming along nicely now apart from alittle cock up yesterday where I accidentally topped her while trying too lst but I have managed too tape the stem in place so I am hoping my little cock up will force the lower branches too shoot upwards while the broken stem heals , This week I had too change my lighting too 600 true watts of kingbo dual optical LED range due too the temps getting closer too 30c than I would like , and by doing so I have now got a constant temp of 27c lights on and 18c lights out, Update on day 4 or week 3 , My little cock up snapping the main stem while trying to lst the tape seems too have really don't the trick , and although snapping the main stem is not ideal lol , It seems I've managed too top this plant and still get too keep the top , the leaves all look fresh and healthy and feed so I will leave the tape on there for two weeks and then try and remove it as all I had too hand was selotape lol The breakage really do not seemed too affect the top 2 nodes at all apart from trigger the lower plant too stretch out , as this break was bad , like hanging on by a thread bad , so really shocked it took too the repair so easily , and as always I had just been leaching the soil with a single feed that lasts them 7 days , my set up is completely automated and I only go too the grow space once a week but I have a WiFi cam inside the grow space so I can check the temps and how dry the pots are just incase I need too increase the feeding , but too be fair these autos seem too have a mad feed at week 7 and 8 and then drink one feed per week , keeping it simple has helped I think as the plants seem too love it , and I don't need too do anything apart from check the camera , And that's just the way I like it , I pay special attention too the temps in my grow space and a calculator in hand for the nutrients , Other than that I leave them alone too do what they do , I will take some end of week 3 pics over the weekend at some point it's abit of a drive so once a week suits me down too the ground , :) Update on day 5 of week 3 well as you can see from the photos this week has had a huge raise in production , the breakage I did too the main stem has completely healed it's self and the plant has bushed right out at the bottom and top of the plant where it broke , So all in all my little cock up has actually helped the plant grow larger , I today gave them a smaller defoliation basically anything covering a branch that could not be tucked under it I removed , This is too get as much light too these spots as possible too get them too develop before flowering starts , But so far so good , temps are good and no nutrient burns on any of the plants , and the results from day one / first feed on green buzz nutrients too this photo today day 5 is dramatic , the photo of all four was before defoliation , but the defoliation has just shown how busy they have this week and the bud sites on this things already is crazy , my next plan this week is too put the net in there and space out all of the branches too give the best spacing between the breaches

I have harvested my ladies. The buds are nice and thick. I'll definitly do an update on the drying and curing. I have already done some rough wet trimming. I am planning to do some more once it has dried They are now drying in my garage with a dehumidifier.
