~ AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow System sponsored by GrowAce, featuring Strawberry Gorilla Auto by FastBuds ~ Well guy's and gal's here we go again on another exciting Autoflower run together! This time will be different as I will be doing a 'Hydroponic' run utilizing the AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow System by GrowAce, who were kind enough to sponsor me for this run, so it should be interesting to see what results I get and have some fun along the way! •Let me first tell you about this 6 Pot Ebb/Flow system from GrowAce: "The AirCube system is the one and only Ebb & Flow grow system on the market that combines the benefits of air pruning with a fully automated Ebb+Flow system! With the AirCube's proprietary fabric pot in bucket design, this system is guaranteed to outgrow any other Ebb + Flow system on the market. The results speak for themselves- grow MASSIVE roots that result in MASSIVE fruits! Air Pruning- Air Pruning only happens with fabric pots. As the roots reach the fabric walls of the pot, they penetrate and grow into the breathable fabric. Once penetrated, the roots are exposed to air, which causes the tips of the root to dehydrate and naturally prune themselves. This natural pruning process forces the roots to grow tons of lateral fibrous feeder roots. This results in a plant that utilizes the entire root zone and fills the entire pot with tons of roots. These fibrous feeder roots are incredibly effective in uptaking water and nutrients, resulting in a plant that grows healthier and more vigorously! Oxygen Benefits- Without oxygen, nutrient absorption cannot occur. On a molecular level, oxygen is needed to transmit nutrients across the cell walls and into the roots of a plant. With the AirCube's proprietary bottom lifted draining design, the system actively draws all of the water out of the bucket pulls vital oxygen into the root zone. Maximum Versatility with Any Grow Medium: The AirCube System is the only system on the market that allows you to use any growing medium you like. Use coco coir, soil, peat moss, perlite, vermiculite, hydroton, rockwool or any other medium you wish! This system is the most versatile Ebb and Flow bucket system in today's hydroponics industry. Temperature Control- with the fabric pots constructed with highly porous polypropylene fabric, heat dissipates easily and effectively. Unlike standard plastic pots, heat isn't trapped in the root zone. Heat in standard plastic containers can reach temperatures of up to 125 degrees. When this type of heat is trapped and unable to escape, it can damage your plant's health and limit the potential of your harvest. Growing in the AirCube System, plant roots grow cooler, healthier, and more vigorous. Largest Pots in its Class- this system features 5 Gallon grow buckets, the largest pot size of any other ebb and flow hydroponic system in the market. Modular and Expandable- start with 6 grow buckets and expand up to 36 grow buckets with the optional 105 gallons PopTank reservoir!" For my medium and nutrients I decided to also switch things up from my regular Organic runs, going with Plagron Nutrients and Root Royale 70/30 Coco/Perlite. When filling the fabric pots with medium, I first added just under a gallon of horticulture perlite from Nor-Cal as a base layer to ensure good drainage and then filled the remainder with the Root Royale. •Now for one of my favorites, and award winning strain from my friends at FastBuds... Strawberry Gorilla Auto: I'll be running Strawberry Gorilla Autoflower which is a 55/45 Sativa/Indica Hybrid. "ATTENTION ALL! Due to our continuous efforts in evolving our breeding process, we are proud to confirm that our Strawberry Gorilla Auto has now become one of the most potent autoflowers in the world! Paving the way to our recent success where she ranked on top & brought home the gold at the very first American Autoflower Cup in California. Moreover, she proved that not only modern autoflowers can compete with photoperiods, but they can even beat them in their field. At the most recent edition of the Farmer’s Cup and competing against various photoperiodic strains, Strawberry Gorilla Auto took home the title of 'Highest Combined Terpenes' in the highly sought-after 'Home Grow Hash' category, with an impressive 97.163 mg/g total terpene content! Our exceptional genetic selection's crowning Strawberry Gorilla Auto strain is a spectacular hybrid known for producing yields of up to 600 gr/m2 in 70 days. This is a very manageable grow that can reach heights of up to 150 cm - due to its magnitude we recommend it for more experienced growers, as a huge plant may be a little overwhelming for first-timers. This show stopping sativa heavy hybrid is perfect as an all day smoke, producing a taste bud tingling, pungent berry and diesel terpene-rich flavor combo that leaves you with a grin from ear to ear, a perfect choice for those looking for a day-and-night autoflower! "* *References: GrowAce.com, 2fast4buds.com ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: • AC Infinity 4x4 tent •AC Infinity Cloudline T6 Exhaust Fan w/ Controller 67 •HLG 650R w/UVA Bar *** For some reason GD does NOT have a listing for the USA version of the 650R so I selected the closest match to it. •AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow 6 pot System •TrolMaster Hydro-X Controller for light •AutoPilot APC8200 co2 controller fed by a 50# tank •16" Hurricane oscillating fan and 8" floor fan •Tent cooling via filtered outside air delivered by AC Infinity Cloudline T6 fan •BlueLab instruments: PH Pen and Truncheon Nutrient Meter ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 12/20- Week 7 of flower and the end is drawing ever closer for these three Strawberry Gorilla's from FastBuds! Today, I started off this week with a drain/clean of the AirCube reservoir, after which I filled it with 80L of well water and added in the Plagron Nutrients (Green Sensation first, then 'A' & 'B' base nutrients, finally the Royal Rush). After the nutrients were added and the EC checked ( it's 2.0), I ph'd the solution to 5.7 @ 68℉. 12/22- I'm continuing with six feeds per day @ 900+/-ppm's, the HLG 650R is at 100% power 28" above canopy and they are getting 4 hours of additional UV during the middle of the light cycle. Tent temp's are running 68-75℉ at a RH of 40-45% and co2 levels are running 650-900ppm. 12/24- The #1 and #2 plants continue to be the better looking of the bunch, with the #2 being the 'one'. The #3 plant continues her struggle but has a generous coating of trichomes covering her flowers! 12/25- ~🎄MERRY CHRISTMAS!🎄~ 12/26- Seven weeks of flower and only a couple more to go! I'll be starting to flush these ladies in the coming week and they should all be beginning to fade soon! Hope to see you next week! Growers Love!💚 💚 Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow what you love, Love what you grow!💚

🌸 BlueBerry – Week 5 Flower Report Grower’s Journal | Zamnesia BlueBerry ⸻ 🌱 The Girls in Full Bloom Both BlueBerry #1 and #2 are absolutely stunning this week: • Size: Towering beauties, full presence in the room. • Bud Formation: Large, well-stacked flowers building from bottom to top, showing the real effect of the ICL 300 inner canopy lights. • Pheno Difference: • Pheno #1 is forming a dominant central cola, reaching tall and thick — a real spear. • Pheno #2 is slightly more balanced across branches, but still bulking fast. • Hairs (Pistils): Beautiful white pistils everywhere — vibrant, strong, and reaching out like nature’s way of saying, “I’m ready to bloom.” This early hair explosion is a promise of dense, resinous flowers soon to come. ⸻ 💡 ICL 300 – Fruits of the Light The inner canopy lights are proving their worth: • Buds aren’t just forming at the top, but all the way down the structure. • No wasted shadow zones, no underdeveloped sites. • It feels like the plant is blooming in 360°, thanks to the way the ICL spreads light deep into the canopy. The difference between a regular top light and this combination is day and night, and now it’s visible in every flower forming. ⸻ Nutrition Update – Bringing Back All-In-One Liquid This week we reintroduced the Aptus All-In-One Liquid into the feeding mix. Why? • To give the plants a broad-spectrum nutritional push right at mid-flower. • Ensures no deficiency or slowdown during this critical bud development stage. • Works hand in hand with Top Booster and CalMag to support cell expansion and flower density. At this stage, the girls are hungry and hard at work, so it’s the right time to fuel them properly. ⸻ 🔄 Quick Recap of the Journey So Far • Cannakan germination → soil prep with Aptus amendments → steady veg → training + defoliation → flower induction. • Week 4 brought early frost and strong stacking. • Week 5 now brings real bulk, pistil fireworks, and inner canopy buds rising. This has been a textbook BlueBerry journey so far — stable, strong, beautiful. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next (Week 6 and Beyond) • More Bud Bulk: Flowers will gain weight and density quickly from here. • Pistil Transition: Some of those white hairs will start to orange and curl as new sets keep pushing. • Trichome Explosion: Frost will build across leaves and flowers, giving that snowy BlueBerry look. • Terpenes Rising: Expect the first real waves of that nostalgic, sweet-fruity BlueBerry scent. What not to expect: major height gain. The stretch is over, from here, all energy goes into flower expansion and resin production. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts Week 5 is the moment where the BlueBerry girls are no longer just “plants” — they are flowering powerhouses. Frost, pistils, bulk, and balance. With the ICL 300 feeding the canopy from the inside and the All-In-One Liquid giving them the push they need, these ladies are on track to become legends in their own right. BlueBerry #1’s towering cola and BlueBerry #2’s even structure are both testaments to genetic quality and environmental harmony. It’s a pleasure to watch them evolve — and even more to share their journey 🌸✨. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

The Titan is growing beautifully and the smell keeps getting better by the day. This is the first time using an Airpot to grow and I noticed the plant does need more water compared to a Geotextile pot. Luckily I can check up on her a few times a day and give water when needed. Not much to do in terms of training as this lady practically trained herself ¯_(ツ)_/¯ I add updated daily instead of at the end of the week, so more pics and video's coming up in the next few days.

Que hay familia, yo con muchos dolores de cabeza esta variedad es difícil de cojones, piden mucho alimento, han ensanchado bastante así que me toco hacer poda de bajos que no me gusta nada. También estoy al ojo por que me huele a hermafrodita una de ellas, no me hagan caso el cultivo anterior salió top y ando todo el día fumado... pero no es el caso. Nuestras green ak son bastante sensibles a los cambios de temperatura y bueno, no se la recomendaría a medir principiante si no más a gente con varios años de experiencia para poder sacar lo mejor de ellas. Ph controlado 6,5 no fallamos en eso ni en el alimento ya veremos próximamente como avanza saludos familia.

¡Estoy muy contento con los resultados de la cosecha de mi Hulkberry! Esta cepa de Royal Queen Seeds ha sido increíblemente resistente y productiva. Utilicé XpertNutrients durante todo el ciclo de cultivo y los resultados fueron notables. Desde la fase de vegetación hasta la floración, las plantas respondieron perfectamente a los nutrientes, mostrando un crecimiento robusto y saludable. Los cogollos están densos, resinosos y con un aroma increíblemente afrutado, con toques de pino y tierra. La calidad de la cosecha ha superado mis expectativas, tanto en cantidad como en calidad. A lo largo del cultivo, XpertNutrients proporcionó una nutrición equilibrada, lo que permitió a la Hulkberry desarrollar su máximo potencial sin signos de deficiencias o excesos de nutrientes. En resumen, si buscas una cepa fácil de manejar y con grandes rendimientos, la Hulkberry de Royal Queen Seeds es una excelente opción, y combinada con XpertNutrients, los resultados serán realmente impresionantes. ¡Totalmente recomenda.

The fourth week started and it is the first time the lady’s are not welcoming me with a wonderful green color… instead all of them have some nutrients deficiency. On top of that I found leave septoria on the euphoria#1 yesterday. I defoliated every leave with signs of the fungus. Today I just had to remove one extra leaf. Let’s hope I’m lucky 🍀 The RH is not possible to control, because of the weather in 🇩🇪. I forgot to make pictures about the fungus… sorry for that. The problem with the nutrients deficiency is a little bit annoying, because I did the grow with GreenHouseFeeding. Marketing told me that it gives enough nutrients for 8 weeks. After 2 weeks signs of N deficiency is not what I hoped to see. So I had to decide to go with GHF again or switch to BioBizz nutrients. I choose the Biobizz option. I changed the Ca/Mg in the water to 100/33. Day 4 I added a support net, because some of the upper bud sites are not looking very stabel. Better safe than sorry

Black Runtz is a crazy beauty, a black isolated phenotype of the very famous Zamnesia Runtz, in the last week you will find the white phenotype with a green apple flavor but going back a week you will find the black one honestly more beautiful to look at even if this is no joke at all, especially for resin. **Remember that for all varieties we have at least two plants, one left to grow straight and one worked with the techniques. This is the plant worked with a topping, the harvest of the other is precisely in the next week. Technique used // In this case we let the plant grow up to the 4th internode and we cut, then repeated toppings until we reached 16 growing branches. After the second week of flowering we eliminated the branches that would not have seen too much light to strengthen the others. Better with the techniques or normal ones? This time we have two very different phenotypes, a plant with medium internodal distance this time I prefer the plant left to grow straight but I know that it can be done very well with a main lining. Flower quality // From one to 10 stars 15. The plant has resined very well on all sides the resin is really abundant and above average. The buds have been washed as recommended by Zamnesia. Check the article in your language // https://www.zamnesia.io/it/guida-growing-cannabis/333-lavaggio-delle-ceme Fertilizers// I am very happy with how I managed to unload the plant that at a certain point before going to flush was fed for a few days only with additives and then went to flush and we are very very well discolored, I predict a very tasty flower, grown organic and flushed successfully, the flavor and taste will be epic. All Plagron fertilizers and additives in the green/100% organic version have fully satisfied me. Choose your soil according to your style and calculate the sheet on the website www.plagron.com - Brother if you are stubborn use additives listen every now and then.... and then come and tell me. The fertilizers instead can be found in convenient all-inclusive packages on the Zamnesia website. This variety is already a legend in the normal version, imagine in the Black version... try it! ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11159-zamnesia-seeds-black-runtz.html Zamnesia Description // Black Runtz descends from a truly legendary genetic heritage. Our breeders have used three modern classics from the United States to create this variety: Zkittlez, Gelato and Runtz. With 20% THC and flavors of grapes and berries, Zkittlez has transmitted its delicious flavors and relaxing effects. Gelato contributed to Black Runtz's immense flavor profile by imparting high concentrations of the terpenes limonene and humulene. Finally, Black Runtz inherited the high potency of the original Runtz, a strain with a respectable 21% THC. The end result of this 3-way cross is a strain with 55% indica genetics and 45% sativa. Black Runtz boasts a fast flowering time, very high potency, and contrasting yet balanced terpenes that support its delicious flavor profile. Music and Frequencies // For about 4-6 hours a day my plants listen to 432Hz frequencies specially created for their well-being and sometimes a bit of black music to give them those vibes that only music can give. www.radionula.com All the best that mother nature has to offer is at ---- www.zamnesia.com

Tag 42 Blüte. Und wieder Freitag und die Phase hat begonnen wo die Bud nach der größe nun dicht und schwer werden. Einen P+K Booster Compost Tea bekommen sie auch noch zum letzten mal so können die Mikroben nochmal pushen. Man sieht auch das die Pistills wieder sprießen und die Buds werden immer mehr frostig. Die Blueberry Cupcake wird sehr schön zart rot - lila ich liebe Farben aber ich bin bei der Hitze etwas überrascht aber positiv. Auch der Wasserverbrauch hat wieder etwas zugenommen und sie Trinken 1,5 liter und die in 12l Pots 1 Liter täglich

Great week. I went back to 24hrs of light to keep the environment steady, because I put a few babies in there. She stretched about 10 inches and has a lot of bud sites. Pretty satisfied with the new nutes all my ladies seem to be soaking it up.

bad week just getting over covid had a defense on 1 plant I believe it was a genetic issue rather than stretching out it grew with in not allowing light and air so I did a 3x flush followed by 1 gal of PH 6.3 and 1 tsp of cal mag plus I believe I had a molybdenum or magnesium issue. here is a very helpful chart that will let you diagnose and treat any issues https://dutch-passion.com/en/blog/a-visual-guide-to-cannabis-deficiencies-n987 I do have covid and am on the road to recovery this has been a tough grow be sure to check out the video. I did manage to get my temps in line 69*f light out 80* f with light on after 16 hrs. I dont belivbe I will be doing my Super Sativa seed club photo contest I never received the seeds they did off to send them out But there is no way I can go from seed to harvest in 110 days. so I will be changing my grow to a Halloween themed Nuclear Scary Bubbles and Blackberry moonrocks straight from the high quality genetics of NUKEHEAD seeds "anyone who grows Knows Nuke head stayt tuned for more fun to come

This week I made a special video tour of the grow room, hope you like it. This Gorilla is feeling great! She’s spent this week fattening up lower colas. These colas are even frostier than bigger ones. I didn’t get them so frosty on my last growth. I still have to give her Overdrive since the soil is still wet, but will do it in a few days. See you next week 🐵
