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.

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.

Pure Ice cream is growing great under the Spider Farmer G5000/UVR40 lights, in the Athena blended line nutrition. I think she started to get light stress or burn. So I kinda adjusted her to not be right under it so close. She has a sweet creamy smell. Cokas are looking good, and frosty. Just waiting on her to bulk more.

🌱 The Road to Eternal Glory: My Eternity Grow Cup Journey 🌟 First off, a massive thank you to Grow Diaries, Plagron, and Zamnesia for organizing this groundbreaking competition. Your efforts in bringing growers together and elevating the craft are nothing short of legendary. To all the participants: I wish you the best of luck. Let’s make this an inspiring and memorable experience for everyone involved! 💚 Why I’m Excited I can’t express how thrilled I am to be part of the Eternity Grow Cup. This is more than just a grow—this is about pushing boundaries, learning, and sharing the magic with this incredible community. For me, it’s also a chance to reconnect with an old friend: the Zamnesia Runtz. This was one of my all-time favorite strains, a true keeper, until an unfortunate heatwave took her away. But here we are again, Runtz and I, ready to make history together. The Setup: A Glimpse of the Future To make this grow truly legendary, I’m using state-of-the-art equipment: • Lighting: The Future of Grow LED Black Series 600W or the germination, and after i am moving it all to my TM ecosystem Stay tuned, and controlled by the powerhouse TrolMaster Tent-X system, ensuring precision and optimal conditions every step of the way. • Nutrients: A custom mix of Aptus Holland and Plagron nutrients—because innovation meets reliability in this grow. • Medium: The ever-dependable Pro-Mix HP with Biofungicide and Mycorrhizae, ensuring strong roots and vigorous growth. • Germination Station: Seeds will sprout in my trusted CannaKan Germination Station, which has never let me down. Let’s Make Magic Together This is more than a diary—it’s a journey filled with learning, growth, and shared passion. I invite you to follow along not just here, but on Instagram and YouTube, where the magic will truly unfold. Expect deep dives into every step of the process, tips, tricks, and, of course, a final smoke report that’ll be as epic as the grow itself. From this moment until the last puff, this journey will be nothing short of epic. Together, let’s make it one for the history books—educational, inspiring, and unforgettable. Stay tuned for the next update: The Germination Report. Let’s rise and shine, legends! 🌟 🌱 The Germination Report: A New Beginning for the Eternity Grow Cup 🌟 First and foremost, I want to wish the best of luck to all the participants in the Eternity Grow Cup. To our incredible hosts—Grow Diaries, Plagron, and Zamnesia—thank you for creating this phenomenal platform and competition. You’re elevating the craft, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be part of it! 💚 The Journey Begins: Germination Success! Every great grow starts with the perfect germination, and I’m excited to share how I kicked off this legendary adventure. Using my trusted CannaKan Germination Station, I started the Zamnesia Runtz seeds—my old favorite strain—with the hope of finding a pheno as extraordinary as the passion fruit treasure I once had. The Process: My Way to Germination Glory Remember, there’s no “one-size-fits-all” method in growing. What works best is what adapts to your environment. Here’s how I do it: 1. Choosing the Right Tools • I use the CannaKan Germination Station, a tool I trust for consistent results. • With cold temperatures in my setup, I relied on a heat mat to maintain warmth, though it was still a little nerve-wracking! 2. The 24-Hour Miracle • Within less than 24 hours, the seeds had already sprouted and were ready to move into their next home. Seeing that spark of life so quickly is always magical. 3. Moving to Soil • I carefully transplanted each seedling into tiny pots filled with Pro-Mix HP with Biofungicide and Mycorrhizae, which offers excellent aeration and support for root development. • Each pot was labeled Runtz #1–5, ensuring I can track every pheno individually as the journey unfolds. 4. Sprouting Against the Odds • Despite the cold temps, those little warriors jumped out of the soil within 48 hours! Their resilience and vigor have me beyond excited for what’s to come. Tips for Germination Success Here’s what I’ve learned to keep germination smooth: • Consistency is key: Whether it’s moisture, temperature, or light, try to create a stable environment for your seeds. • Gentle hands: Handle your seeds with care when moving them; they’re delicate at this stage. • Adapt to your environment: No method is universal—always tweak your process to fit your conditions. • Patience: Sometimes, seeds need a little extra time to sprout. Keep faith! Next Steps: The Adventure Awaits Now that the seedlings are up and thriving, it’s time to let the journey truly begin. I’ll be hunting for that passion-fruit-like pheno that captured my heart last time, but every seed holds the potential for greatness. For now, I’m keeping it simple: plain water, no nutrients—just letting them establish strong roots. Stay Tuned for the Magic This is only the beginning. I invite you to follow along on Instagram and YouTube, where I’ll be sharing photos, videos, and behind-the-scenes updates. Expect plenty of knowledge, tips, and excitement as we navigate this grow together.

15th.05.2025 Day 70. Left these girls for a couple of days, came back to see them explode. All milky trichomes. Still some white pistil hairs. Strong 💪 smell. Tropicana cookies 🍪 strong cirtus smell. Banana 🍌 purple punch has sweet and fruity smell, so lovely. Lemon 🍋 cherry🍒 has bubble gum smell with hint of citrus. They have definitely put on some weight in past week. We will see how far we can take them until we start seeing amber trichomes. 17th.05.2025 day 72 Today I harvested the tropicana cookies. I still could have waited a bit longer, however i am dying for a smoke. Hung whole plant in small grow tent, maybe 1ft x 1ft. I am trying to slow down drying as much as possible because on last run (wurlz f1) I dry too quickly without keeping an eye on temperature and humidity. Buds were crispy. In dry tent now the buds are touching the wall. I don't know if this will affect the dry. We will find out. Placed dehumidifier in tent as humidity keeps going up as plant drys. Set at 60%. I can't get temperature down to 60f or 15.5c as recommended. My temperature is around 20c or 68f. As for the others i will try to push them as much as possible. We'll see how things progress. 18th.05.2025 Day 73 Today was chop day for banana 🍌 purple punch 👊🏼. She is frosty as f**k. On this plant fimming was applied. She came out short as I wanted. It's difficult to see with jewelers loop but I see some amber. I need to get better scope. Also today I gave chemdawg a reservoir change out with final part solution. Also because there is more room in grow tent I spread some of the branches and trimmed off some of the lower popcorn buds. Topped up lemon cherry with nutrient solution. Soon lemon 🍋 cherry 🍒 will be chopped🔪 For the dry tent I removed dehumidifier as it was creating heat on the buds directly about. I am using an inline fan now . Once the humidity gets too high it comes on and sucks dry air in. This also removes stagnant or stale air, which is better for buds and will help prevent mold. 21th.05.2025 Day 76 Today lemon 🍋 cheery was harvested. Looking at trichomes they seem milky woth little amber, however the pistil hairs on her were all brown and she was starting to lose her bubble smell. I placed her in dry tent with tropicana cookies and banana purple punch. I had to install carbon filter because these girls were stanking up the house.

With the males out of the tent, I have a little more room to spread them out. One plant is much different than the rest. It's short and squat. Another is pretty narrow, showing minimal side branch growth. The rest are similar, and I like the way they are developing. I took the top fan leafs all the plants to open up the lower nodes. They all seemed to respond well, and I'm seeing good side branch growth. What a week!

Wow.... This week.... She stinks!! Way more than anything else in the tent!! 😍 Very citrus. Very very lime!! 😍 Look at the amount of trichomes she has. It's crazy! Do all CBD strains do this? I'm thinking there's a week or two left for harvest..... Anyway, apologies for poor pics this week, they're all getting too big to get in and out the tent without damage. Last week I snapped the main cola on her last week 😭 It is taped up and a cane support added. It will survive! 💪 EDIT: I realised I'd uploaded completely the wrong pictures 😅 😂 😜

Week 3 Marvels: Cherry Cola Auto's Green Symphony Continues Hi guys! Our botanical voyage with the Cherry Cola Auto from Fast Buds Seeds is evolving into a mesmerizing saga. As we delve into Week 3, the green marvel not only thrives but astonishes with newfound vigor. Strap in for another week of horticultural revelations! Our Cherry Cola Auto, now comfortably settled in the 16L fabric pot, has gracefully embraced the Lumatek 465W Zeus Compact Pro LED in its new tent. The transition was seamless, and the plant basks in the orchestrated light, akin to a botanical ballet. In a daring twist, I decided to break from tradition and venture into uncharted territory for autos - topping! With gentle fingers and utmost care, I executed a precise pinch at the top. The result? A beautifully topped Cherry Cola Auto, standing tall and proud. Topping involves removing the apical meristem, redirecting growth hormones, and promoting bushier lateral growth. It's like giving our plant a new set of directions for an intricate dance of foliage. But the surprises don't end there. This week, I introduced the art of bending to our green companion. Picture this: the plant, pliable and eager, responding to a gentle coaxing of its branches. Bending not only shapes the plant but also enhances light exposure to lower branches, ensuring an even canopy. It's like crafting a botanical masterpiece with nature as the artist. As promised, I've captured the essence of my Aptus Holland watering mix in a visual delight. Check out the accompanying video for a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the meticulous concoction. This nutrient-rich elixir, featuring Regulator, caMg-boost, All in One and Start Booster, is the lifeblood of our Cherry Cola Auto's thriving existence. As we conclude this Week 3 saga, the Cherry Cola Auto stands as a testament to the endless possibilities of cultivation. To Fast Buds Seeds, Aptus Holland, and the entire green community, your support fuels this vibrant journey. Here's to another week of green marvels, topped triumphs, and bendable beauties. Until next time, keep growing, keep experimenting, and let the green symphony play on! Genetics Cherry Cola Auto @Fast_Buds @fastbuds_genetics_official @fastbuds_official @fastbuds_espana Nutrition: @aptusholland @aptus_world @aptus_ Love, Care, and Attention: @dogdoctorofficial As always, thank you all for joining me on this journey, for your love, and for it all.

One week left on the 2 that are already in flower. The third just started flowering in its 7th week for some reason. This was a decent grow. I learned a lot by messing up a lot. I’m most definitely a newbie. Will be doing another run on these immediately. Have to test my skills to have it grow faster and yield more. Thank you all who has followed our journey.

Week 4 She is starting to look more normal, still on the 12/12 cycle but that will change in a weeks time. I'm going to tie her down tomorrow, because she has no budsites on one site so i might aswell tie her down on that side.
