We are about on earth since a month our photoperiod plants are multiplying their florets and then going into flowering. The Black Runtz is a short lady like her normal colored little sister, with a low internodal distance. This characteristic greatly influences the application of growing techniques. In this case it is a plant that responds to topping a little slower than the others and it is best to wait for the branches to grow to avoid damaging the little ones. However, we are at 4 florets and between tomorrow and the day after tomorrow we will cut 8. My plan for photoperiod plants is to get to 16, wait a few days and go into flowering. 16 florets as I see it is the perfect size for the 11 liter pot. Topping is an extremely delicate moment as regards cutting the tops to split them, we always pay attention not to damage the new branches growing. Topping is also a delicate moment as regards fertilization because the plant slows down and absolutely does not need all that nitrogen that it would normally need and that the producers recommend in their sheets. So you should arrive with the plant green and perfectly in shape at this moment and dose the fertilizer very well for growth. Mine came from a slightly deficient veg because I kept it low fearing this over effect during the topping that I know well and now I am a bit over. Nothing to worry about, of course, but if you do repeated topping, my advice is to use preferred soil or prepare the soil with Monster Bud Mix by Zamnesia or Plagron Super Mix, in short, enrich the soil at the start and only add nitrogen if necessary, especially during repeated topping. In any case, everything is under control and I will demonstrate it to you during the flowering phase. Wait for the Uncle BreadandBuds and see what it does to you. Remember that cold temperatures make the girls absorb food much more slowly than in summer, so be careful to give the right amount and let the plant dry in maximum 2 days or you risk imbalances. We are always using soil, feeding and all the recommended additives from Plagron 100& organic, we have only lowered the amount of grow in this topping phase for the reasons mentioned above. ---- Decide on the right soil and calculate your fertilizer sheet based on the soil on the official website. -- www.plagron.com Try a seed of this strain that drives us crazy.. -------- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/11159-zamnesia-seeds-black-runtz.html Zamnesia Description // Black Runtz comes from a truly legendary genetic pool. Our breeders used three modern classics from the United States to create this strain: Zkittlez, Gelato, and Runtz. With 20% THC and flavors of grapes and berries, Zkittlez passed on her delicious flavors and relaxing effects. Gelato contributed to Black Runtz's immense flavor profile by passing on 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 rapid flowering times, high potency, and contrasting yet balanced terpenes that supports its delicious flavor profile.

Hey folks, Into week 13, plants starting to see, I see single pistils on some of the plants. Looks like she will be going into flowering in the next few weeks. Again, this plant is one of the most bushy plant I have ever worked on! The internodal spacing and grow is simply explosive; and to note, it's been hotter than hell the past 2 weeks. Seeing avg temps in the mid 30s. Plants took it well. Just had to stay ontop of watering. So because of the bush factor I decided to defoiliate again this week. It's been almost averaging 2-3weeks for every defoiliation. As usual, watering with molasses water pH between 6.0-6.9. See you on the next update!

The gorilla zkittles took a plunge with yellowing of leaves immediately and dying off after a molasses feeding so I stopped that right away. Introducing fish shit today and hoping everything is still good.

This was a beautiful week. Massive THC production my trichromes are covering the white widow plant in crystals. Its an icy plant with its sunscreen on. Looking absolutely gorgeous. I finished defoliation. Removed most all of the fan leaves so the plants can focus on bud production and amp up those clusters. The blueberry plant is starting to fruit up as well. It will end up going an extra week so its production is right on point. The white widow plant is just some crazy good genetics. Of my 7 new nursery plants the two white widows that I have are head and shoulders above the rest of the plants. I am excited to see what the 12/12 from seed does for them with our new super soil setup. The plants have received their full doses of flower food and flower finisher. They are going to ride out the week on just water because they started to burn with the influx of the flower finisher. It seems to absorb more potently than the regular flower food does. I will does the plants some of the flower finisher food about halfway through the next week so as not to burn the plants. After that we will flush the soil with just water for the remainder of the grow so as not to have any extra nutrients flooding the plant before harvest.

The growth is really satisfying especially for the one that germinated firstโ€ฆmy first guess is that itโ€™s a male. I should know in the next two weeks as theyโ€™re both regular seeds. Can anyone else guess the male?

This fifth week started off kinda rough. I had to remove some sick leaves that got hit by leaf miners. Iโ€™ve cleaned up all the damaged parts from the plants, including this one. On Monday, Iโ€™m gonna spray them with a ready-to-use mix that has Neem oil, nettle extract, and horsetail. I also noticed a slight nutrient deficiency, probably because until now I was only watering with untreated tap water โ€” didnโ€™t check the pH at all. Even when I fertilized, I still used water with no pH adjustment. Iโ€™ve only just started using pH-controlled water like two or three times now, since I finally bought a pH meter. Now Iโ€™m watering and fertilizing with everything adjusted to 6.5, so thatโ€™s something I need to keep in mind from now on. Iโ€™m planning to bump up the fertilizer to 1 ml per 500 ml of water. Iโ€™m using Biobizz Bloom, and I wanna keep the dose like that because the pot is small โ€” just 3.2 liters โ€” so I donโ€™t wanna overdo it with 1 liter of water. Iโ€™ve noticed that 500 ml works just fine, so Iโ€™ll stick to that. Other than that, everything seems to be going okay.

29 days since my seed sprouted a little girl๐ŸŒฑ Fourth week of growing my Purplematic CBD Auto โš•๏ธ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’œ Nutrients: Nutrients - transition to flower: Plagron Alga Bloom is an organic flower fertilizer for growing in soil. The fertilizer is algae-based and contains amino acids, proteins and a balanced ratio of phosphorus and potassium ๐ŸŒบ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Plagron Green Sensation is a flower booster.

Suitable for all types of substrates and crops. For use in growth and flowering. ๐Ÿ’ฉ๐Ÿ‹๐ŸŒฑ ---------------------------------------------------- PRO-MIX CONNECT MYCORRHIZAL POWDER - for substrate General: Purplematic CBD Auto โš•๏ธ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’œ The girl is already in full bloom ๐ŸŒบ๐Ÿต๏ธ, I feel very sorry for this girl, her leaves are curling more and more. It looks almost horrible. On the other hand, I was afraid that her disease would also affect the flowers, but fortunately that did not happen. The buds are dark purple, the pompoms full of hairs are getting bigger. I think the harvest will be quite satisfactory, considering the problems with the leaves โ˜˜๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ I use the new pH and EC meter Aqua Master Tools P110 PRO, the measurement is fast and accurate ๐Ÿ‘Œ So far I have managed to keep the pH and EC as they should be. Although my EC has jumped a little more now, I diluted the watering so that the EC drops. I use Biobizz Bio +/- to correct it. The excellent mycorrhizal powder PRO-MIX Connect to support the roots certainly works very well. All the girls have been very strong and stable from an early age ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฒ Training: I did 2x defoliation and 2x LST to all the plants in the tent this week. It didn't work out very well with Purplematic, the basic LST was enough and I cut the leaves and they fell off, they don't have many and they are sick, however the plant needs them for photosynthesis ๐Ÿƒ

Hello my Friends!! Sorry for the late update was a very busy week! Bush'OKush grew phenomenal through out this grow. This is her last update before harvest. The pics were taken Monday, and I started the Harvest chop on Thursday That was a nice BDay present from the Cannabis gods๐Ÿ™Œ She Was not the easiest but not that hard to grow at the same time lol. I think even a beginner can grow this strain just pay attention to it and it should not be to much of a challenge.๐Ÿ‘Œ She really bulked up with lots of weight these last 2 weeks. It actually surprised me because it was one of those strains that builds the buds nice and big and then they dense up later on during the grow. So as they just kept getting more dense an dense as the last 2 weeks went on it was a nice surprise. I ended up having to stake and tie up a few of the branches and would have done more if it wasn't so close to harvest when they started to squat down. So if your growing this strain don't get upset if you think the buds are staying real fluffy, they will dense up in the end๐Ÿ‘ It looks like she should have a pretty good yield!! She smells fruity/kushy/earthy that is so strong it almost burns your nose๐Ÿ˜ท She is getting harvested as close to 100% milky/cloudy trichomes but leaning more toward having more amber than clear trichs for that ~5-10% since it is pretty much impossible to get 100% cloudy. Other than that I just have to finish up trimming and yea I'll have the harvest update soon!๐Ÿ‘ Happy Growing an Plentiful Harvests everyone!!๐Ÿ™

Okay ladies and gentlemen today is day 73 and as you can tell, this girl has quite some time ago, i'm thinking a month to a month and a half.. she's showing some sativa traits like the fan leaves having skinny fingers and the buds being long and narrow, which is fine by me. Because I am a sativa lover. However, I am hoping and or was hoping for big fat baseball bat colas to show off some sexy pictures for Zamnesia Seeds and Plagron nutrients so we're gonna do our best to make that happen still... We are at 95% white pistols still so there is hope that in the next couple weeks, she fattens up.. i hope everyone is doing well and so are there ladies , I really appreciate everybody stopping by and showing love .. thank you as always to both Zamnesia Seeds and Plagron for putting this contest together (cookies take notes ๐Ÿ“) lol .. I just put another Zamnesia Seed in the dirt yesterday, so we have another one coming up this week .. God bless everybody and happy growing โœŒ๏ธ

Hello, readers! Changed solution. Even though, i'm glad it's still not roting! Not sure, what have changed, that now it's feeling good. I have done some stretching, but this was the last one. I decided to completely untie her. It's time to grow vertically! To the sky, to the sun. From the heart :D I actually have done defoliation in one of this days, but i cut only few leaves, so that doesn't count. By the end of the week, i feel like, she didn't visit barber for a months :D Will be defoliating a lot on the next week.
