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.
Understanding Runtz Genetics 🌸🔥
Runtz is a legendary strain, celebrated for its powerful genetics and exceptional traits. Let's dive into what makes Runtz so special:
Parentage 🌿:
Runtz is the love child of two powerhouse strains: Gelato and Zkittlez. This dynamic duo contributes to Runtz's unique flavor profile and potent effects.
Flavor and Aroma 🍭:
Expect a delightful explosion of sweet, fruity flavors with a hint of candy-like goodness. The aroma is equally enchanting, filling your space with a tropical, sugary scent that's hard to resist.
Effects 🌈:
Runtz is known for its balanced high, offering both euphoria and relaxation. Perfect for those seeking a joyful, uplifting experience that melts into a soothing body calm.
What to Expect 🌿✨
As our Runtz plants grow, here are a few things to watch for:
Vigorous Growth 🚀:
Thanks to its robust genetics, Runtz is a strong grower. Expect rapid development, especially in the early stages. Keep an eye on those green shoots as they stretch toward the light!
Resin Production 💎:
Runtz is a resin powerhouse, producing dense, trichome-covered buds. This not only enhances its potency but also contributes to its striking appearance.
Balanced Structure 🌱:
Look for a balanced structure with a mix of sturdy branches and lush foliage. This makes Runtz ideal for various growing techniques, whether you're a novice or a seasoned grower.
The Joy of Growing Runtz 🌿❤️
The journey of growing Runtz is as enjoyable as the end product. Each day brings new growth, surprises, and the satisfaction of nurturing such a phenomenal strain. Whether you're growing for personal use or to share with friends, Runtz is sure to impress with its vibrant traits and rewarding yield.

Popped all 8 seeds from 420 fastbuds and put them into half a pint of water that had been stood for 24 hrs at room temperature. left them float in a dark cupboard, 2 days later all of them sat at the bottom of the glass with big tap roots so I planted them in their final 15L pots.

Day 165
14/10/24 Monday
De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with calmag today
Starting to see new growth showing purple and dark tones 🤩🖤
Picture and video update 📸💚
Day 167
16/10/24 Wednesday
Another feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6.
I may as well make it last out this week and see how she is again. I'm thinking she may end up being a 10-12 week flower because of size.
Picture and video update 📸💚
Day 169
18/10/24 Friday
De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only today. She is starting to put weight behind her buds now...
I went through and did a deep lollipop and defoliation because of what happens to Euphoria in my previous diary, I am not risking mould again!!!
She is doing well!
Her colours are coming through nicely now.
Day 171
20/10/24 Sunday (End of week)
Another feed to finish the week 💪 she is taking it like a champ.
De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 after nutrients.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la cosecha de estas Gorilla cookies Auto de FastBuds.
Por dónde empezar, es una autofloreciente que es muy fácil de cultivar, tiene un periodo corto de crecimiento y de floración igual no es largo.
En cuanto a la alimentación , pues la aplique una vez por semana y a sido suficiente, se a comportado muy bien en interior, la flor pues no es muy prieta porque no deja de ser una autofloreciente, pero es una flor que está bien explotada y que va repleta de tricomas.
El periodo de luz pues de principio a fin a 18 horas, fue sucficiente para completar el ciclo de vida como esperaba.

The girls started to pre-flower on the 6th of June. They all have a slight smell when you rub the leaves. Kosher cake, Strawberry banana and the Forbidden runtz have a sweet smell to them. The Forbidden runtz reminds me of the smell of skywalker OG which is totally LUSH..!! The blackberry has more of an deep earthy smell with a slight bit of fruitiness. Super excited for the next few weeks with these ladies. Happy toking my peeps 😁

Week 9 was a tough week for the plants, but they pulled through!
First, we are experiencing a heatwave where I live which has caused me some headaches for figuring out how to make the environment plant-friendly. Growing indoors is much tougher than I thought it would be 😅. So the room where the plants are has reached the max temperature of 38 degrees celsius. I decided to take the plants out of the tent and into my bedroom facing the west side window for ultimate sun exposure. Unfortunately, I cannot have the plants in my bedroom overnight since my husband has allergies. So, I placed them back in the tent at night.
Throughout the week, I took some timelapse videos of the plants in front of the sun, and it is truly fascinating how plants understand the power of the sun, soil, water, and air. I think that plants would rather be grown by sunlight than LED lights, they get to move to the rhythm and speeds of solar and ecosystem, and it's amazing to witness in timelapse!
Anyways, by the end of week 8, the plant looked hungry and big enough to be repotted. So, I gave it some Gaia Gree all-purpose nutrients and repotted her in a larger container with some fresh soil.
The first few days of repotting, the plant seemed to have experience stressed. Its leaves were floppy, and there was not much growth.
By the end of week 9 the plant looked much happier, fuller, and greener!

Wanted to try an outdoor greenhouse shared bed style in my basement, it worked but not better than any other method I’ve tried and it’s a bit of upkeep and watering to water that much medium evenly. Washing Machine finished fat with beautiful purple/silver and dark geeen flowers.

Looking forward to seeing some signs of flowering this week. 🙏
I used to believe I was a man of patience 😅

After deciding to start this new growing journey, I chose to germinate a Banana Purple Punch seed from Fast Buds.
This particular strain caught my attention with its unique characteristics, and I couldn't resist giving it a try.
I began by using a hydrogen peroxide water solution to germinate the seed, which helps oxygenate the water and prevent harmful pathogens.
After about 36 hours, the seed cracked open, revealing the first signs of life.
With a taproot emerging, I carefully transplanted the sprouted seed into a 20L airpot, ensuring enough room for the roots to breathe and grow freely.
This marks the beginning of an exciting new adventure, nurturing this intriguing strain to its full potential.🌱💚
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
One of my cannabis seedlings unfortunately didn’t survive in the pot....😭
Now, I’m trying again with two more seeds of the same strain, but I’ve changed my approach. Once they've successfully sprouted, I transfer them into coco tablets.
There, they’ll remain until they’ve developed healthy roots before being moved to their final growing environment.
I’m hopeful that this method will help me handle the early phase of the cannabis plants more successfully, and I’m excited to see how things turn out.💚💚

AUGUST 16 to AUGUST 22, 2025
Insofar as fertigation, this week each specimen was provided a Top Dress of Dry Organic Amendments as described in the Nutrients section of this diary post. The top dress was watered in with a Liquid Amended Soil Drench with the following ingredients and measures (mL/L):
Bloom Liquid Plant Food (1-3-3) - 5.0mL/L of plain rainwater
Yucca Schidigera Liquid Extract - 0.25mL/L
Monosilic Acid - 0.5mL/L
Activated Beneficial Microbes - 5.0mL/L
- All products from Optimize Organics (https://www.optimizeorganics.ca/)
Both Lemon Orange specimens are growing with vigour, and well into the transition to bloom. Pairs of pistils are evident in several locations on each plant. Sunlight hours have dropped to under 14 hours (Sunrise 07:00, sunset 20:58). I am considering this Week 1 of flower.
Considerable height gain over the week, with a noticeable increase in inter-nodal spacing, particularly on Lemon Orange #2. Lemon Orange #1 is the shorter of the two phenotypes, slower growing, and not taking in near as much water/nutrient (did not need to be watered this week). Lemon Orange #1 has an average height across its 8 main growing shoots of 51cm, while Lemon Orange #2 is is near 68cm.
Neither specimen is overly smelly on their own, but when rubbed up against or manipulated the scent of citrus with an earthy after-tone is present.
Fungus gnats have found a home in the garden, and for now I've deployed yellow sticky traps to control the adults. More aggressive treatments of other parts of the lifecycle will likely be needed, and I am considering acquiring nematodes to add to my living soil.
DAY 99 - Top Dressed with dry organic amendments (Bloom mix); Watered in with Bloom Soil Drench Formula; Went fishing for a couple of days.
DAY 100 - n/a
DAY 101 - n/a
DAY 102 - 1L drip of plain rainwater at 08:30 via automated irrigation system; Returned from fishing trip in early afternoon (14:00), plants looked good, if not a bit uneven as a result of not being turned 1/4 clockwise over the past 3 days.
DAY 103 - Witnessed droop under full sun in early afternoon, across all specimens on the back bench (Blue Dynamite #2. Lemon Orange #2, Blue Dynamite #1). Drip watered 1.5L of plain rainwater to that bench of plants only, as the front bench with the small plants (Lemon Orange #1 and Purple Romulan) seemed as though the substrate was sufficiently moist.
DAY 104 - Prepared Compost Tea for application on Day 106, set to aerate for 36 hours.
DAY 105 - n/a

Day 43 : Watering with co2 tab / 5L. Also added food again because i think they need it. Increased ppm to 850. Maybe the next one will be pure water. Ventilation works all the time when lights are on. Temp and humi are stable and this is good for the girls. she still grows. Patience is the key always. Also removed some burned leaves from all ladies.
Edit (Day 47) : Watering with co2 tab every 5L. I watered with juices again at 850ppm because i felt that they need it. Only DsD drank pure water because of burns. All ladies enjoy this bright sun for sure. I have a very good combination of sprectrums. Cree cobs are in 3000k and HPS at 2000k.
