The grandaddy black is looking happy. Will be switching them to flower in a week or less. I gave them a flush and fresh nutrients. The humic acid really makes a huge difference in the uptake of nutrients. I am at about half dose on nutrients compared to what I would have to feed without it. Winter is approaching and bringing the low humidity with it. All of the humidifiers I have tried either dont work or I have to constantly refill the tank. So I decided to use my redneck engineering skills to throw this humidifier together. It holds 4 gallons of water and she pumps like a freight train. I have dubbed her the Steam Queen. I got 2 cool mist foggers that put out about 400ml per hour each and used some things I had around to make them a little float. Added an old computer fan to force the mist out through a 2 inch pipe. She won't win any beauty contests but she pumps out plenty of cool moist air. I also upgraded my exhaust to a variable speed for more added environmental control. Just going to do a little more training over the next week then try to make some buds.

The Apple Cup hermied this week along with the Baker's Dozen. Fortunately Tropicanna Poison is flowering so fast that it seems to be unbothered by the hermies next to it. The hermied plants will be stunted as more energy will be focused on developing pollen/seeds. Also I'll have to chop them down early before any seeds begin to solidify within the buds. It's ideal to immediately remove any hermies as soon as pollen sacs are spotted. Unfortunately I only have my small closet space so I decided to leave them and observe the growth of hermies.

The Bruce Banner showed a nutrient deficiency (potassium) this week. I have just learned that organic fertilizer should always be applied at 100% of the recommended rate and not at 50% as I did in the first few weeks. However, it doesn't look too bad yet and I have now increased the fertilization. Next I discovered 2-3 small pollen sacks on S.A.D. #3 & #4... I don't know why both plants were slightly twittering but I simply removed these bananas :-) We will see!

Well there’s 6 weeks of veg down, tonight will be the first night of 12/12 with HPS bulbs in. I’m going to be running the lights from 9pm to 9am due to summer heat and hopefully the tent will run cooler at night. Everything was super cropped today to limit the stretch a little bit, she’s 95% indica so might not get to much stretch, I also don’t have a clue as this is my first photo run with the HPS. All light leaks to the room have been addressed with green bulbs in the room. I’m at least hoping to get an ounce per plant if more great just not really sure what to expect. I feel as tho there is still lots of N in the pots but maybe over the next two week they’ll chew right thru it. Maybe I should have lowered the lights but I’m just going to leave em at the top of the tent..... well that’s it for now, I leave tomorrow for work so the next time we see em they should have some bud starting hopefully!

31 Aug. I start the third week of my autoflower. The plant is growing well, but I noticed small yellow spots on the leaf tips, which seem like a mild calcium deficiency. This is probably due to the fact that so far I have been giving water with a slightly low pH, around 6, while the ideal range would be 6.5–7. At the beginning, to lower the ppm of the tap water (which was around 211 ppm), I mixed it with demineralized water. This brought the ppm down to about 109–140, making it harder for the plant to absorb the available calcium. Additionally, the soil I am using, Biobizz Light Mix, is lightly fertilized but does not contain enough calcium to correct this small initial deficiency. For this week, I will not add any fertilizers. I simply want to raise the pH to 6.5 and use water with higher ppm, so the plant can better absorb the nutrients already present in the soil. The lamp is positioned about 35–36 cm from the plant and so far there are no burn issues. Temperatures range between 25 and 30 °C depending on the day, while humidity in the room stays between 40–60%. The humidifier is always on because I keep the window open, but the dehumidifier is not being used, as it is not necessary at the moment. I also have a new oscillating fan arriving to replace the current fixed one, and I’m waiting for a regulable extractor (90–145 m³/h), which will allow me to control the air perfectly during winter if needed. This week my main goals are: Increase the water ppm without overdoing it Adjust the pH to 6.5 Keep observing the plant without adding any fertilizers Everything else seems fine and growth is regular. With these corrections, I expect the new leaves to grow healthy and free of spots. ==UPDATE 31/08== To control the calcium deficiency, I will administer an eggshell solution until I reach 300 ppm (I will boil some eggshells and administer the solution in tap water).

She likes a lot of Cal Mag for sure. I can't believe how purple she got given the average temperatures during the whole grow was 24'C! Smoke is Lovely, was harvested on the 3rd of November and after 7 day of drying and she's only been curing for 5 day but she already smells delicious! And look at those little resin drops! Nice euphoric high, perfect for watching comedy on the couch followed by a wonderful sleep. Harvest was 44g after 7 days of drying in a closet with a dehumidifier set at 50%. Any advice for pushing this plant further would be welcome!!!

Welcome to my Runtz Auto Diary sponsored by Zamneisa and Spider-Farmer co2 ran for whole fattening period. Days 1-21 early week 7 missing. HST"ed some of her.17th/may 7th/June Power Buds really helped build lots of tight stigmata. Sorry about missing wk 7 and half of 8. Colas are getting big loving the light. Developing lovely fade around the leafs the past 2 weeks. Drinks like a fish. 2L a day easy on her last 10-14 days. Doing really well. 7th/June foxtailing is happening as you can see. She's very sticky and is still pushing. There's nothing I can do about the heat. Nothing. All I can do is lower the light intensity that now. Its been set at 90%.⁰ Am dealing with crazy temps like 35c on ave can go up to 39c. Am finding it hard to keep the stomata vents going. Seedlings are pushing through. I do see signs of stress. Possible foxtailing coming. Not much I can do with the temp. Stomatas are been kept open with fan power. I've 4 running nonstop. 1 full Osc one and 3 others that blow parts of the plant but its more designed to keep the co2 in the middle of the tent. It's taken me 2 weeks to find thy optimal way to manipulate co2 movement. If you don't have the fans right. You are just wasting money. I've seen s 50-30% increase in rate of just seedling growth that I prove. From 55ish strains that 95% ran from 9-10 Days the rare long one. But, I'm seen seedlings turn into vegging plants in an average of 6 days. Some as early as 4.5-7.5 days. Most are 6. And then they're flying through veg too. HST & defoliation HST was done early pre flower the nodes actually split and fell over. Mended itself up. Tbh, there is no real benefit to HST'in autos. I've done it many times now. The nodes that were HST"ed didn't vary much if at all. The whole plants buds are hard. Foxtailing like a bitch. But comes with the environment growing indoors in summer with co2 with 35c temp on average, power buds was used as soon as I seen stigmata and until pre fower ended. SE5000 light used for co2 growing. Doing a great job. Helps to have a great sensor. This spectrum is great. Even with high temps that should have vents closed if using say 1 spectrum but, this light is able to keep the plants eating with high temps. Has gave all my plants great fade. Next wk. I'll higher the light and lower it and start focusing on the crop this light was issued for. But, its done a great job at finishing my crop. Thanks to my sponsor from Zamneisa. Hopefully i can do your strains better justice next time if there is. I'm happy with the bud, as its an auto that spent a lot of her life under the SF-1000 before the SE5000 2 wks ago like to thank "Bella" for that upgrade. That allowed me to finish a few of my girls while setting my flying youngsters at a distance. I love everything about it. Much appreciation to all who stopped by to view, like &/R comment. Look forward to seen your work. COUPONS Marshydro.eu/ww "ggs" 3% Zamneisa "GROWITGD" 20% ww Spiderfarmer.eu/ww "ggst" 3%

Flowers! Lots of flowers starting to form. This plant is a dream to grow. So easy. They're having a great time by the looks of it. Girl #3 totally recovered after a rough start. Upping the fertilizer a bit, cause the girls are getting more and more thirsty. The room is filling up with a nice odour. We're back baby!

Last week before harvest. I started checking the trichomes and they are looking amazing. Cloudy, milky big mushroom head tricks. Not so much amber yet but I feel that will change pretty quickly with the temp drop. I will keep checking them daily and when I feel there's a good ratio between amber and cloudy I will harvest. I think im going to try the 48 hour darkness method. I've also heard of splitting the stalk and taping it up to stress it out a little bit. If anyone has tried this method and has experience with it let me know down in the comments. Big frosty buds with an incredible powerful aroma. Such beautiful plants all around. Thank you @Seedsman for your amazing genetics. Im honored to be able to grow and showcase your product! Let's do some haze next!

Time is not on my side as my wedding cake in the other tent is becoming a beast and I want the small tent for the rest of the flowering stage of the wedding cake . So being as its week 11 she will be getting chopped at the weekend which will be around day 77. I think its taken such a long time due to her being more sativa inclined. The grow has gone quite well with no deficiencies that i've noticed. The Humidity is also on the high side so thats another reason to get her chopped soon. I have reduced the nutrients down now for this final week and also reduced the light hours to give her the sign to hurry up lol though she finishing i think at her own pace
