Everything is going well. Not much time to look after these ladies, new grow room is nearly complete. Look out for a new diary coming soon!

white runtz seems to be holding its own in the center of the tent, really impressed with how well it has responded in flower after such a difficult veg phase

I love the deep green leaves on her , slowly dropping temps to bring out her deep beautiful purple/black, all is well!

Week 9: Navigating the Path to Harvest! Greetings once again, fellow cultivators! As we journey deeper into the heart of our botanical adventure, Week 9 brings us closer to the long-awaited harvest of our beloved Epsilon F1. In this week's installment, we dive into the intricacies of nutrient management and the final stages of flower development. Our Epsilon F1 stands tall and proud, a testament to the care and dedication lavished upon her throughout her growth journey. With each passing week, her beauty becomes more radiant, her buds more plump and resinous. It's a sight to behold, a testament to the magic of nature and the art of cultivation. Ah, but this week brings a significant shift in our approach to feeding. We've made the bold decision to cut all additional nutrients, relying solely on Fluvic Blast and Enzym+, both trusted companions from the Aptus Holland lineup. Why, you ask? Because at this stage of the game, our focus shifts from nutrient uptake to nutrient utilization. Fluvic Blast, with its rich blend of organic acids and trace minerals, acts as a catalyst for nutrient absorption, ensuring that our Epsilon F1 can make the most of the resources available to her. Enzym+, on the other hand, plays a crucial role in breaking down organic matter, releasing valuable nutrients that might otherwise remain locked away in the soil. Together, these two powerhouses work in harmony to optimize nutrient availability and promote healthy, vigorous growth in the final weeks before harvest. As we approach the culmination of our journey, let us not forget the lessons learned along the way. From the delicate balance of light and nutrients to the art of patience and perseverance, each day in the grow room has been a lesson in humility and gratitude. We owe a debt of gratitude to Royal Queen Seeds for providing us with the genetic masterpiece that is the Epsilon F1, and to Aptus Holland for crafting nutrients that have nourished our plant from seedling to harvest. And so, as we bid adieu to Week 9 and prepare for the final stretch, let us take a moment to marvel at the beauty of our Epsilon F1 and the miracle of nature's creation. May her harvest be abundant, her buds potent, and her legacy enduring. Until next time, dear friends, happy growing! #EpsilonF1HarvestJourney #Week9FinalStretch #BotanicalBeauty #RoyalQueenSeedsGenetics #AptusHollandNourishment Genetics -Epsilon F1 @rqs_esp @royalqueenseedssp @rqsglobal Food - @aptusholland @aptus_world @aptus_es @aptus_portugal @aptusbrasil @aptusplanttechaus @aptus_thailand @aptusplanttechnz @aptususa_official LED @lumatekeu Controls - @trolmaster.eu @trolmaster.agro @trolmaster.support As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life With true love comes happiness , Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience #rqs #ApoloMission #MoonHarvestAdventure #playwithlego #lego #legotime #legovideo #tothemoonandback More info and complete updates from all my adventures can be found Link in the profile description Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only Growers Love To you All

In this week, most of the plants have developed pistils. I will keep using vegetation fertilizer for a few days, until they evolve completely. I also decided to use scrog method to keep the plants at the same height.

She is still in a nice routine of having 2/3 liters every 2 days. Like clockwork. Will be using overtime instead of big bud in a week. Finally stopped growing vertical growth I believe at 37 inches, now I'm excited how fat these buds are gonna get. The 5 gallon has so many Colas they are beautiful. Day 45 - Buds are really starting to fill in and fatten up. Drinking 3 liters every 2 days now with pots drying out fully Day 47 - my 3 gallon pot i am feeding half dose nutes compare to the 5 gallon pot which is needing more N. she is much more thirsty drying out faster too. Makes sense she is double the size in all ways.

So after the hailstorm last week, one of my colas were broken. I taped it together and used wire ties to hold it together and it has survived. It continued to grow an inch and is flowering! I thought for sure I had lost this cola. I also used the "question" forum here on grow diaries regarding my broken cola and like the responses I received. We have had some very cool nights and warm days but my Skunk has continued to thrive. The one thing I think is very interesting to notice is how crooked the buds look on this plant. Is it because I grew two colas or because of the trauma from a broken cola?? I have no idea but time will tell. Please like and comment and come back!

Plants seem good but 2 are still looking a little hungry,.. there was little change in their color 3-4 days after their last feeding so we fed them again but set PH to 6.5 this time to see if this helps them take it., we also gave 2ml/gal bloom solution to all plants..these seem a little on the small side but we've had a few auto strains start out this way before, i guess time will tell! 😺👌...The MarsHydro is running super cool in that tent, temps have looked great since fixing the timer issue..we'll be sure to update again midweek..thanks for stopping by and happy harvests everyone!! ❤️❤️❤️ ⚡Mars Hydro/SP-3000⚡ Specifications ⚙️: Diodes: Samsung LM301B / Osram 660nm (960 total!)

Variété parfaite pour les débutants. Les plantes sont très résistantes aux chocs de température et d'humidité. Elles donnent des rendements satisfaisants et un goût agréable. La runtz a une odeur très sucrée, presque comme un gâteau, je n'avais jamais senti une plante avec une odeur pareille, c'est très agréable. Les plants étaient tous petit, 50 centimètres environ, et n'avaient pas beaucoup d'odeur pendant la floraison, c'est parfait si vous voulez être discret. Concernant les effets, on voit bien que c'est une souche 50% sativa 50% indica. Au début les effets sont euphorisants, elle provoque des rires, mais par la suite et donne un bon effet analgésique, parfait pour aller dormir, je n'ai pas trop de flow de pensé avec et c'est très agréable pour se détendre. J'ai obtenu 34g et 45g sachant que j'ai eu pas mal de problèmes.

8/30 - Day 65: All is great. Plant 1 will be harvested very soon, I'm thinking September 6th or 13th... all depends on the trichome development. I have come across a wicked calcium deficiency that I am solving with foiler spray and a little more supplemented in the nute mix, but I don't quite understand what's happening. I will post a question and update with information. I read it takes about a week to fix, so I'm not to worried about it ruining my harvest, it just sucks and I want to fix it. 8/3 - Day 69: Fuck... man... it's CRAZY how much they change overnight at this stage. We are flushing plant 1 (center plant in photos) Sunday, and we will harvest her September 13th, at the latest. I check her trichomes everyday and they are still not milky — so we wait! Colors are beautiful, bright orange and a wonderful violet purple. The sugar is just piling itself on. Smell is average, but if you bump them, or trim a leaf... it gets much, much more potent. The buds are sticky as literal superglue. I cannot wait to smoke. We have been fighting a small CalMag deficiency the past 8 days, but I think we are out of it. Typically takes 6-8 days to see any sort of relief from this, and I haven't seen it spread to a few of the older colas, so that's good! I'll get some more micro shots later this week. Harvest scheduled for September 13th. Flush starts tomorrow - 9/6. Fuck. Yes.

Cold and rainy week, they are growing good though still. Like this strain. Sprayed with CannaCure

Day 1 flower lights on 100% 640w draw. Felt amazing inside right when I unzipped the tent, I wanted to chill in the tropical climate. I will still continue to add humic, organic booster, to water. Now along with 1/2 tbsp of soluble PK (bluesky organics FLOWER2). This will bring my natural ph to 6.5ish bringing it down without the need for "ph down" in solution. I will try to get into Dr. Thunder today and remove some more foliage of what I couldn't reach last night. day5 video, showing off custom spectrum. CW, NW, R on 100%, UVA and IR off. IR will make things stretch more, UVA is off because no trics yet. I added a lot of 7month old coffee grounds I've been saving for N boost, then finding out I had 17-0-0 blood meal. I also started to add very little soluble PK into 5 gal along with normal watering ingredients, like always. I am verry happy with things are until day 19-21 where defoliation again.

Barneys Farm is a hit for me. Gorilla Glue Gelato is gonna be fire. About. 7 weeks till harvest.

Gave her some Cal-Mag, other then that flowering going nice and she is filling in. The pollinated branch is developing nice, and really interesting to see the difference between the pollinated compared to unpollinated. Looks like she will be another few weeks to finish.

Song of the week : method man & redman - how high part 2 ------ 03.10 - My 2 1st try was a fail so I'm re-(re)starting with my last 4 seeds of Blue dream'matic as my 1st attempt provide me a nice smoke full of terpenes. Today 4 seeds was put into a glass of water 🤞 hope this time will be the last & the good one 🌱 ------ 05.10 - Ready to be transplant 👍 ------ 06.10 - 4 seedlings have been poted in 0.25L pots. ------ Day 6 - 12.10 - They remain small but they are far from the light , I have to make more space in the box for them so next week my Green poison xl will get out for flowerimg to clear the space. I also watered them today.

No nutes or watering this week as the soil is good on both but I will certainly monitor her soil wetness lol but that is all this week.

Flowering Day 35 I’ve starting steering vegetatively this week which means less stress on the plants to increase bud size. Watering has been frequent with low EC. Lower VPD along with other veg crop steering techniques used. Buds getting bigger every day
