Hey, cannabis enthusiasts and connoisseurs! 🌿🔥 The journey with our Runtz F1 has been nothing short of legendary, and now we’re at the stage that every grower eagerly awaits—the trim and smoke report. This Runtz F1 has delivered beyond expectations, and I can’t wait to share the details with you. Let’s dive in! The Trim Process 🌾✂️ The trimming process was an experience in itself, filled with care and attention to detail. Here’s how it all went down: • Breaking Down the Branches 🌿: • First, we carefully broke down the plant into manageable branches, making sure to preserve the integrity of each bud. The structure of the Runtz F1 made this easy, with its dense, compact colas ready for precision trimming. • Trim Bin Magic ✂️: • Using a Trim Bin, we meticulously trimmed away the sugar leaves, leaving behind only the most beautiful, resin-coated buds. The Trim Bin isn’t just a tool; it’s a game-changer, allowing us to catch every last bit of precious kief that falls during the process. This extra kief is like a bonus for those special moments when you want to add a little something extra to your smoke. • Preserving Terpenes with Grove Bags 🛍️: • Once trimmed, the buds were placed into Grove Bags for curing. These bags are revolutionary in the cannabis world, designed to lock in terpenes and keep your buds fresh for the long haul. Unlike traditional jars, Grove Bags use a special TerpLoc technology that creates a perfect microclimate within the bag, balancing out oxygen and moisture levels. This means your buds cure evenly without the need for burping, preserving that incredible citrus terpene profile we’ve come to love from the Runtz F1. The Legendary Smoke 🌬️🔥 Now, let’s talk about the smoke—because this is where the Runtz F1 truly shines. • Flavor Explosion 🍊🍋: • The moment you take your first inhale, you’re hit with a symphony of citrus flavors. It’s like walking through a citrus grove with the sun shining down—notes of oranges, tangerines, and lemons come through strong, each one distinct yet harmoniously blended. But the magic doesn’t stop there; an underlying hint of vanilla sneaks in on the exhale, rounding out the flavor with a creamy, smooth finish. It’s an experience that dances on your palate, leaving you craving more. • Aroma 🌿🌸: • The smell is just as captivating as the flavor. As soon as you open the Grove Bag, the room fills with that zesty citrus aroma, complemented by a subtle sweetness from the vanilla undertone. It’s the kind of smell that makes you pause and appreciate the craft that went into growing this plant. • The Effects 🌟: • The effects of the Runtz F1 are as balanced as its flavor profile. Expect an initial wave of uplifting energy—perfect for daytime use or when you need a creative boost. As the high settles in, it mellows into a relaxed, yet focused state. It’s the best of both worlds: energizing without being overwhelming, and calming without knocking you out. This makes it an ideal strain for those who want to stay productive while still enjoying a potent, flavorful smoke. Final Thoughts and Invitation 🎥✨ The Runtz F1 has proven itself to be a true connoisseur’s strain—a perfect blend of flavor, aroma, and effects that’s both complex and satisfying. This was a journey that showcased the importance of patience, precision, and care, from germination all the way to the final cure. If you want to dive deeper into the entire process, from the first week of veg to the final trim, I’ve documented it all on my YouTube channel. Join me there for a closer look at how this incredible strain came to life, and learn more about the tips and techniques I used to bring out the best in these plants. Thank you to everyone who’s been part of this journey, from the community to the amazing brands like Gro Diaries, TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Kannabia, and more. Your support and tools have been invaluable. Remember, the magic is in the details—so never stop learning, growing, and enjoying the fruits of your labor.

Only had chance to do photos on day 41 guys, apologies for that. This week I think there was a Gamma Radiation leak nearby.. She grew 34cm!!!!!!!!!! 😂 thats almost 5cm / 2" per day. All 4 tops (from FIMing) are almost equal in height. She is well into flowering so I'd like her vertical growth to slow a bit 😅 Lots of flower sites forming! She is quite bushy. These growcaps have impressed me so far, I thought they were a bit of a gimmick but I think they really do work. There was no sign of any deficiency or over feeding at all so they seem very well suited to the task. The only thing I wonder is how many weeks do they last? Also added 4ml/L of both Cannazym and Terpinator. This brings it to around 650ppm including ~300ppm for my clean water.

These Ladies are in bloom with popcorn on alot of the branches. Some branches are getting heavy with frosty Nugz but half of the plant is flowering at a slower pace. I noticed some powdery spots on some of my leaves this week. After some research I've decided to seek advice from the GD community vs relying on my own experience or trying methods that may negatively affect these beautiful plants. Feel free to chime in 🤔

Ende Woche 7. Ich habe die Gute ordentlich entlaubt, mini Buds entfernt und alles so hingebogen, dass es gut Licht bekommt. An Tag 48 gab es 2,5 g Pflanzengeflüster (Harpin-Protein) auf 1 L Wasser als Wurzeltränke, da ich so weit in der Blüte nichts mehr sprühen möchte, obwohl Harpin über Blattdüngung viel besser wirkt. Beim ursprünglichen Mix der Erde hatte ich einen Denkfehler bei der Düngermenge, daher wurden die fehlenden 200 g jetzt noch oben aufs Substrat gegeben und dann mit frischer Erde abgedeckt.

🌸 Week 7 Flower – Crystals, Aromas & Monster Buds Welcome, friends, to the final pre-harvest chapter for our Mango Kush sisters. Week 7 Flower is where everything comes together: weight, density, aroma, and frost. And let me tell you — these girls are absolute monsters. ⸻ 🌱 The State of the Sisters • Pheno #1 – The trailblazer. Her colas are enormous, dense, and sparkling like snowy peaks under the lights. The macro shots reveal a glittering layer of trichomes, covering buds, sugar leaves, and even little fan leaves near the canopy. She’s showing phenomenal resin production, and her pistils are thick and curling. • Pheno #2 – The younger sister, but catching up fast. Her buds are dense and sticky, the frost is appearing more heavily, and every macro shot reveals the same dazzling crystal coverage. She’s slightly behind Pheno #1 in maturity, but don’t be fooled — she’s a true powerhouse in her own right. The smell in the room is so strong that if it weren’t for the carbon filters, we’d probably be calling the fire department thinking someone baked 100 mango pies at once! 😅 I mean the frost on these buds? Looks like Mother Nature had a snow day in the grow tent — pure white crystals everywhere, like the plants are wearing winter coats in July! ❄️ ⸻ 🔬 Trichome Watch – Macro Details Week 7 is all about trichomes. Here’s what we’re seeing and monitoring: • Clear trichomes: Still present, mainly on the lower bud sites, indicating some time left before peak potency. • Cloudy/milky trichomes: The majority of bud surfaces are now showing full milkiness, a sign of peak THC potential. • Amber trichomes: Small percentages on the tips of pistils — this is the first sign of cannabinol conversion, giving the slightly more sedative effect. 🌱 Educational takeaway: Trichome inspection is the golden key to deciding harvest timing. Macro photography helps us see nuances invisible to the naked eye. We’re aiming for a balance: mostly milky with a touch of amber for that perfect Mango Kush high. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition At this stage, feeding is minimal but precise — we don’t want to push excess nutrients, only support the plant as it finalizes resin and bud density: • Just water lol the rest they can find in soil and else were Educational takeaway: Week 7 feeding is about support, not growth. The girls have all the energy stored; now we just help them transform it into resin, aroma, and density. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment • Temps: 28–30°C, slightly warmer in the canopy under heavy buds. • Humidity: 50–55% — perfect for trichome development. • CO₂: 620–650 ppm, steady, helping photosynthesis and sugar production. Observation: Trichome production loves a slightly drier mid-to-late flower environment. Too much humidity can reduce resin and promote mold on dense buds. ⸻ 💡 Lighting The lighting orchestra is still performing beautifully: • ThinkGrow Model One → penetrating the canopy • ThinkGrow ICL-300s → mid-canopy perfection • Future of Grow Black Series 600W → full-spectrum balance • Lumatek Zeus 465W Compact Pro → evening out footprint Result: every bud site is kissed by light, maximizing sugar leaves and resin density. ⸻ 🔄 Recap – Seed to Here For anyone joining now, here’s the full journey of our Mango Kush sisters: 1. Seed germination: Smooth, fast, with Aptus Start Booster. 2. Vegetative stage: Strong branching, two phenos selected, transplanted into super soil + Aptus Mycor-Mix. 3. Early Flower (Weeks 1–3): Pistils forming, Power Buds introduced, lighting expanded, TrolMaster ecosystem established. 4. Mid Flower (Weeks 4–6): Bulking, simplified nutrition, aroma starting, trichomes appearing, All-in-One Liquid and CalMag adjustments. 5. Week 7: Buds heavy, frost everywhere, aroma exploding, trichomes mostly milky with hints of amber — the final week before harvest. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect ✅ Expect: • Buds heavy and dense, needing support • Aroma extremely potent, filling the tent • Trichomes mostly milky, some amber • Sugar leaves sparkling with frost ❌ Don’t expect yet: • Complete amber conversion (full sedative effect) • Final cured aroma or flavor (only post-harvest) Educational takeaway: Week 7 is the climax of flower maturation. Now is the time to inspect, support, and admire — patience will yield the perfect harvest. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude To the GrowDiaries community: thank you for joining this journey from seed to near-harvest. The sisters have taught us patience, observation, and joy in every stage. To the gear: TrolMaster, ThinkGrow, Lumatek, Future Of Grow with the Black Series — thank you for letting the plants reach their full potential. 💚 Grower’s Reflection: These girls are monsters, monsters of beauty, resin, and aroma. Every macro shot shows why we love this process. And yes… if it weren’t for the carbon filters, we’d probably be evacuating the neighborhood from sheer Mango Kush smell! 😅 Frosty, dense, magical — week 7 Flower is everything I hoped for. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📌 P.S. – About the Timeline A quick note for clarity: Mango Kush #1 and Mango Kush #2 are slightly offset in their flowering timeline — there’s about a week difference in their development. For the purpose of GrowDiaries, this Week 7 Flower report combines both sisters to provide a full picture of the tent and the ongoing bloom. While Mango Kush #1 is slightly ahead, and #2 a bit behind, this report reflects both in their mid-to-late flowering stage. Why combine them now? GrowDiaries updates are sometimes tricky, and combining the sisters allows us to share their progress together, making it easier for readers to follow the story and observe the similarities and differences. 🌱 Rest assured: When harvest comes, we’ll present a complete follow-up report covering harvest, dry, trim, cure, and smoke review — highlighting each sister’s unique traits and final results. Honesty is part of the journey, and transparency helps everyone learn and apprecilove the full picture. 💚 Growers love to all 💚

📆 Semana 8 La Variegated Sour GPP ha llegado al final de su ciclo, y aunque el resultado no ha sido el esperado en términos de cantidad, la calidad de los cogollos obtenidos es bastante aceptable. La planta ha madurado muy rápido, lo que ha permitido una cosecha temprana pero con una producción algo reducida. Antes de cortar, realizamos el lavado de raíces esta misma semana para garantizar un sabor limpio y libre de residuos. Durante el secado, estamos cuidando las condiciones para preservar al máximo el perfil de terpenos ácidos y picantes que ha desarrollado. El aspecto compacto y peculiar de las flores sigue llamando la atención, manteniendo esa estructura densa que ya había mostrado en etapas anteriores. A pesar de la baja producción, la resina sigue siendo abundante en las puntas principales. Esta cosecha rápida deja algunas lecciones para futuras tandas, especialmente en lo que respecta a maximizar el rendimiento sin sacrificar la velocidad de maduración. Seguimos creciendo fuerte ! 💪

She seems to be overfed, showing yellowing here and there. I might have messed up the Ph because I did not adjust fhe ph of nutrients mix. I assumed it was ph corrected. Now, I am adjusting the Ph and reducing feeding. Let’s hope that she recovers next week.

Day 14 of Flower, start of Week 2. Nothing more than feeding them some Age Old Organics nutrients. 30 ml Bloom, 30 ml Fish and Seaweed. Gaia Green Power Bloom, All Purpose, and Glacier Rock Dust should still be working and dissolving into the soil. I add Real Growers Recharge with the feedings. I don't plan on doing a defoliation until the stretch slows down a lot. For now they're growing well and praying. Everything is back on track and thriving.
