So, my last (first) first grow ended abruptly after 7 days of life. So I would still like to count this as my first grow as I didnt even make it past the beginning stages of veg. RIP Ralph fr. Today I will be starting a new grow, but still my first time, but I'm jumping in going for a organic, living soil, outdoor, low stress approach. I am a huge Z terp fan, so hoping this plant will give me something sweeter than gassy or glue-y. HERE WE GO! Date: Jun 28th 2025 Stage of growth: Seed Day 1 I've taken the Gorilla Z Auto from FastBuds and placed in a mason jar filled with RO 6.6ph water in my garage. Date: June 29th 2025 Stage of growth: Seed Day 2 A taproot has emerged! The seed is still floating on the surface of the water. Will probably plant this tomorrow. While this was going on I was preparing my soil and space for the seed. For my soil/grow space: I've created an entire new soil environment in my backyard from scratch for my seed to go into in the next day or two. It is now no longer just backyard soil, but rich in nutrients that will hopefully help this plant thrive even more. Here is everything I did to prepare my backyard soil, which has a ph of 7.2: Dug about 10 inches down Leveled it ish~ Put cardboard as the base layer Put red woodchips from front yard over a thin layer on cardboard A small soil layer (same topsoil from backyard) 1 tsp of elemental sulfur (bc my soil ph is 7.2) Handful of worm castings 1 tbsp of mykos root enhancer 2 tbsp neem cake (pest control) More topsoil (layering) 1 tbsp neem cake (pest control) Another handful of worm castings A dried up plant i found that kind of resembled straw so i decided to throw it in there (irrigation?) More topsoil A pinch more of worm castings 2 red worms i found while leveling (I plan to buy more at petsmart) Gently mixed in worm casting to the top layer of soil Put 6 bamboo 3 ft tall sticks in the dirt around it making the skeleton to a barrier i will let it dry and begin to add the netting and chicken wire once the seed is planted Watered with random water from my RO tap, distilled, and hose just to wet and solidify the entire base. From here on I will be watering with 6.6 ph reverse osmosis tap water. And its done! Tomorrow on day 3 of seed I will plant it and begin its seed cycle. Thanks for coming to my 2nd attempt at a first grow. Any advice super welcome and appreciated! LAST UPDATE (June 30 2025): Date/Time: Jun 30 1:15 pm - day 3 overall Stage of growth: Seedling Environment: 90.1 F with 27% rh Ph levels of soil: 7.55 Ph levels of my water: 6.6 Updates: I’ve taken the seed with long taproot and placed into the ground with some mykos sprinkled into the hole before planting, then watered lightly with my RO 6.6 ph water. I then took chicken wire, and fenced off the bottom portion around the bamboo sticks to make a rough 2x2 barrier. After that, I covered everything loosely with 2 layers of netting. Inside of my chicken wire fence is another circular chicken wire fence to act as a form of a double wall around the early veg plant. UPDATE (later same day) this netting is keeping flys IN, which is exactly what im trying to prevent. I assume its because its loosely covered and the bottom has the openings. Ill revise tomorrow. Observations: I noticed not only is a bird prominent around this garden, but a possum or rat (im not sure) also showed up last night at 1:30am. So I will need to try as much pest prevention as I can. Videos attached. Watering: I only lightly watered right after planting today, the soil seems pretty moist still and I dont want to overdo it. I plan on watering either late tonight or tomorrow morning. Any concerns or questions: Is the netting worth it? Are there better methods for pest prevention in an outdoor garden I could take other than the netting? I also don’t like how it looks, or the attention it draws to this plant. I hope to see a sprout in the next 2-3 days! Will come back to update when I see something.

Second week of flower, time to stretch! Im very happy with the outcome so far, it is without worry that some tops are in shadow. Enough tops to go around, have to wait until after stretch to lollipop! The lady all the way in the back, to the left, has either stunned growth or just slower than the other to go into stretch. However i will just play the waiting game, as i see no symptoms for a problem atm. Last watering was 15/10 👽👉17/10 VPD is set to 1.2, but because of the function of my dehumidifier, it range from 1.1-1.3. 👽👉18/10 Waterday* They are real thirsty First signs of pistils have shown! I upped my nutes from EC1.36 to EC1.66 BioHeaven 2ML/L BioGrow 1ml/L > 1.5 BioBloom 0.5ml/L >1.5 TopMax 0.5ml/L> 1 Calmag 0.3ml/L > 0.4 👽👉19/10 The ladies love it! Stretching and praying hands! 👽👉20/10 Impressed with the stretching. Not much to report, they just feeling the vibe. 👽👉21/10 Changed the lamp hanging system, to gain some more distance from light to canopy. 👽👉22/10 Thirsty ladies, but since i did not have time to water, i gave them 200ml each to survive another 24hours without feed. 👽👉23/10 Waterday* I upped my nutes from EC1.66 to EC1.77 added 1ML/L Rootjuice to this feed Bioheaven 2ML/L BioGrow 1.5 ML/L > 2 BioBloom 1.5ML/L TopMax 1ML/L Calmag 0.4ML/L Rootjuice 1ML/L

Last week I tried to fix the calmag issue, since it was my first time using calmag from biobizz, I didn't know how to apply it and got the nutrient deficiency. This week was time for the base plan from advanced nutrients, and I could saw a sign of nutrients oversode, hence I used 1.5ml/L of each base plan (micro, grow, and bloom), and I set 200 µS/cm as base for the solution. Then I used some befetial bacteria as usual from the "Colectivo cientifico" (scientific hub) from Chile. I gently watered my girl and applied some leafcoat to prevent plagues. Next week I want to apply other natural anti-plagues, since I had plagues in my prior grow. I also decided to apply LST, the plant has more branches and it's ready for it. I really like how LST improves the yields and helps the plant develop several "colas". I final note is that the plant now has a strong smell compared to, lets say, my prior grow (think different from dutch passion). Please let me know any thoughts about my girl, the nutrients or the LST technique.

Hello everyone! This week the wedding cake has finally started to flower and it is in the pre-flowering period. After the gorilla skittles started flowering as early at the 6 week, the wedding cake continued to grow insanely for 2 weeks and grew about 35cm in two weeks!!. She finished all the space in the closet and currently the top of the plant is 30 cm from the lamp, I have no more room in the closet to lift the lamp. I tried using Scrooge and Deployment but it was not enough. The fiming method did not stop the growth enough. This week I did another cleaning of the leaves and flower areas that I am not interested in. Hope everything will go smoothly!

Day 0. New start. Sponsored grow. ALL NUTRITIONS ARE GRAMS TO LITRES !!!! Neutralise is in real measurement only. Soil was mixed two weeks ago !!! That line needs cooling time, have in mind !!! Main sponsor of this grow is Mars Hydro. They sent me new light again, this time i will try out TSL 2000 model. First impression : easy to assemble, but i would create longer screws and put spacers , that way would ventilate better than now its bolted straight to board. Ganja Farmer sent me few strains to try out, while i finally prepeared , got few more from them ;)))) Devil XL Auto is the first in try list. Never had good luck with funky colours plants, but in this run it will be two ;) Day 4. Girl sprouted on forth day, lets GO !!! Day 5. Made a video, all runs smooth, a bit lanky, needed to put lights on on 3rd, not 4th day ;))) saving electricity not always pays off ;) Happy Growing !!!

Here we are again ready to start again, always under the sign of Zamnesia, we make our fantastic plants and we show you what we are capable of. We have 5 autoflowering strains and 5 photoperiodic ones and now we present them to you. We are faced with a Classic of recent times: Runtz. It certainly does not have the age of Northern Lights but it is a truly magnificent plant and Zamnesia perhaps also has the best version. Truly super I have grown it in all sauces let's see this one. Gelato and Zkittlez are my all-time favorite mums perhaps. To explain my germination method which is a combination of experiences acquired in the field and readings of the right advisors, I have chosen to divide it into phases so whoever wants can follow them and understand better step by step. - Preparatory Phase ---- Check the average temperature in the room, humidity status to understand if it is the case to start or wait, I decided for the end of August because the temperatures start to drop towards the 22-25 degrees recommended for germination. Then another thing more or less credible depending on the sensitivity is the control of the lunar phases. I believe in it a lot, it is a method that ancient farmers used to understand when it was best to plant depending on the attraction of the moon. To make my life easier I use a simple app that advises you on the right time to plant, harvest and put in the jar (depending on the lunar phases). - Phase 1 --- Soaking in water. There are many authoritative friends who advise against this method due to the risk of drowning, but I have always been fine and I follow the rule if it opens in water the seed is almost certainly healthy and will come out of the ground 90% normally. - Phase 2 --- Opening the seed in water. As soon as the seed opens and the root comes out a little, you have to be very very careful not to leave the seed in the water open for too long. This is why there is a risk of drowning. So as soon as the root comes out, it must be planted. Do not wait for it to stretch out a lot, you can wait a little longer in the absorbent paper, but not in water. - Phase 3 --- In the meantime, while I soaked the seeds, I prepared my pots: I use small biodegradable pots (choose the ones with holes underneath for drainage). A few hours before working with the opened seeds, I moistened the soil with water adjusted to the right pH (5.8 - 6.2) and Plagron Power Roots. The small root is now open and we can make a little hole with a toothpick, widen it and insert the seed. Not too deep with the root facing downwards. From Serious Seeds we learned the dome technique: if you put a small dome of soil on the seed the water will settle on the sides avoiding overwatering problems. - Phase 4 --- The plant emerges from the soil. So far I have not put the light, now I turn it on at minimum after half a day of soil to give direction to the seedlings. The first week the light will be gradually brought from 40% to 60% to go to 70% - 75% in the remaining weeks of veg. During the first week maximum, I keep the cycle of 24 hours to avoid stretching. Be careful not to exceed the first week at least with photoperiodic plants. - Germination % --- In water 20/20 seeds have opened for good luck I'm waiting to talk when they come out of the ground but it seems that we are going towards an excellent percentage of germination..."Not too bad"... - Soil and Food --- The soil used is entirely organic in every part and is the Plagron Promix that will be used with the 100% organic pack provided by Zamnesia complete with all the main fertilizers for your plant buy it at the link -- https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11457-plagron-easy-pack-natural.html // Strain Description // Guys, we have really reached a turning point! Our breeders have recreated one of the most sought-after strains by Californians: the very powerful and exquisitely delicious Runtz. This cross between Gelato and Zkittlez is everything you could want from a cannabis strain: tasty, powerful, balanced, productive and fast flowering. Buy the seeds and try it yourself! - Get a seed of this fantastic strain --- https://www.zamnesia.io/it/6000-zamnesia-seeds-runtz-femminizzato.html - Soil and Fertilizers entirely organic --- https://plagron.com/en - Growbox --- https://www.secretjardin.com/ - Music and sound --- I made my girls listen to 432hz frequencies and music from www.radionula.com - Z --- You can find these seeds, much more from the world of cannabis, mushrooms and an incredible series of accessories and gadgets on the reference site not only mine but of many growers ---- https://www.zamnesia.io

28.04.2023 🌱 99 giorni dal seme 🌼 27 giorni di fioritura 💦 1.8 litri/48h 📈 ph 5.8 ec 2.1 Andiamo verso la fine della 4 settimana di fioritura, sto spingendo forte con i nutrimenti. Inizio settimana scorsa, ho fatto l ultima grossa defogliazione e pulizia di rami inferiori, le piante hanno reagito bene al forte stress, non ci sono segni di carenze o blocchi dovuti allo stress.Sembra che le piante apprezzino molto la tabella di marcia dei nutrimenti Canna. Prossima settimana aggiungerò il Pk 13/14 di Canna per iniziare a far gonfiare le cime. Per il momento è tutto bella gente, al prossimo aggiornamento🙏💚

(ÚLTIMO DÍA Y COSECHA DESDE LA SEMANA 10// LAST DAY AND HARVEST SINCE WEEK 10❗) Es una cepa que queda en mi podio principal, un crecimiento robusto pero vigoroso, es una buena comedora de alimentos. La he curado por par de semanas y ese olor exquisito a crema dulce es muy tentador, el humo se siente parecido solo que con notas cítricas y fondo terroso. Su pegada es Intesa y duradera; comienza con un poco de energía y pensamientos ágiles y termina con un golpe narcótico. Gracias como siempre a la gente de fast bud por proveerme de estas y otras semillas que he estado documentado por este medio y mi instagram @stickyfingah420.

Everything looks good......stress bent them into position and defoliated ..... lots of flowering now..... ..... hadn't actually measured them for awhile, and updated the height, 44 cm .... tested out the lights higher, 40cm away, and seemed to slow down growth... so moved em back, 20-25cm... watering is the same, bottom saucer feeding, 850-1000 ppm dutch master one flower 5-8ml/lt.... actually using about 12-15ml / 1.8l....... Day 70 (10 wks) - Pulled em both out of tent, flushed em and trimmed em abit, took some pics/vids in the sunshine. ...... the soil started smelling bad, - stale, moldy, damp, soil smell..... so i did a full flush out on both.... noticed afew gnats, been afew since the start, but haven't really been many.... i'm going to try out a UV bulb, and also a usb uv led bug trap ..... just ordered them.... posted a pic of both... see if they are any good..... 😎

Week 11 Day 71 (15/03/2021): No time to take pics today ✌️ Day 72 (16/03/2021): Looking good but more and more leaves are drying up or turning yellow. But at this point there is definitely no point in stressing the girls by removing them. Although the colours definitely look nice! Day 73 (17/03/2021)💧: Today will be the last watering for the girls so they have a few days to take up the last bits of moisture before harvest. I can’t believe how fast this grow went but I have definitely learned a lot from it. Day 74 (18/03/2021): They look so nice and colourful, definitely an interesting bunch of girls :D Can’t wait for the harvest and cure Day 75 (19/03/2021): No time to take pics today ✌️ Day 76 (20/03/2021): No time to take pics today but harvest day tomorrow!!!! Day 77 (21/03/2021): HARVEST DAY! What a great journey it has been growing these girls. They were so resilient and only started showing symptoms of deficiency in the last few weeks. They are absolutely covered in trichomes and smell very pungent. I think they will be super hard hitters! And it still amazes me how different they all are. Echo is even completely purple! Can’t wait to trim and dry these girls and will definitely make some bubble hash from all the trichomes on the leaves too 🤤 Will follow up with a review soon! (after they’ve cured for a bit)
