Day 35 flowering: Hi all. We are well onto the flowering periods now amd all the girls are beginning to smell and throw out lots of trichromes . The appearance and colours are also really coming out now for the different phenos is clearly have running. I think i have 3 differing ones on close inspection. #1and 3 are the same but #2and 4 are noticably different so far. #2 has very tightly formed raggy looking style buds and 4 has really open spikey looking ones.They have slightly different node distances too which effects hownthey cluster up. The colour contrast is slightly different between them too. The aromas is a fruity sweet one mainly and is starting to come out . With approx 3 full weeks to go , things will hopefully get swelling up now and adding the weight too. Still only needing the minimum waterings it seems and the wet /dry cycle makes this a very simple grow. The strain has been simple to work with so far and well worth the effort. Sweet cheese is about a week behind the other girls and is forming up in her natural shape well thensides look measly compared to the trained ladies I am used to working with but her main has some serious potential now. I can see how her main will become the donkey dick that I see on normal grows done natural but sjebhas a lot of leaf to bud at this time , so let's see how it ends up. be safe and well folks. peace and love GGD.

Last week, first of flowering, was outstanding, I could water the girls regulary and the work paid off they stretched a lot and are looking super healthy. The girl right below the upper fan is suffering a bit with the shadows and is notoriously shorter than her sisters, I will need to rethink the air circulation for the next grow. Another concern of mine is their height, hoping they dont stretch anymore as the lights are already at maximum possible height inside tent and there is only 20cm gap between it and the plants.

Hey now, hope everyone is haing a great weekend. The Sundae Driver is doing pretty well, she is 2 weeks from getting wet under the Spectrum X which is only cranked up to 30% so she is putting out close to 230 Watts for the 7 seedlings. I will only keep 5 of them and give a couple away as I think even 5 mainlines will be tight in my 5X5 tent. My plan is to transplant them in a couple days, and then top them for the first time at the third node around day 20, and then hopefully top her again around day 27, then again hopefully around day 30, and then flip her to flower by then end of week 6 or 7 at the latest. If i go much past there I think I will run out of room but we will see how it goes. First time ever running a Royal Queen Seeds Strain, but I have smoked this Sundae Driver before and she was one of the tastiest strains I have ever tried, so very excited for this run. I hope everyone has a great weekend, thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! 💪 Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

🌿 GrowDiaries Harvest Review Runtz by Zamnesia Seeds 🌿 Participating in this contest has been an incredible journey! A massive shoutout to Plagron and Zamnesia for making this possible. Growing Runtz in a 1-liter pot was an experiment that exceeded all expectations yielding a whopping 2 ounces! 😱 Aroma & Flavor: The scent is absolutely intoxicating: fruity candy haze with a gassy undertone that fills the room. Each puff delivers a smooth smoke, leaving behind a clean white ash, a testament to its quality. Bud Structure: The buds are dense and chunky, resembling big, oily nuggets. Their vibrant colors and resin coated appearance make them a visual delight. Effects: This strain hits hard with a potent and euphoric high, perfect for evening relaxation. The balance between indica and sativa effects provides a creative uplift followed by a soothing body relaxation. Final Thoughts: From seed to harvest, this grow was a rewarding experience. The combination of top-tier genetics and quality nutrients from Plagron made all the difference. I'm thrilled with the results and proud of what I've achieved in such a compact setup. Thank you once again to the GrowDiaries community, Plagron, and Zamnesia for this opportunity. Here's to more successful grows ahead! 🌱🔥 DIARY COMPLETE

Efecto relajante y antiestrés pero que, a su vez, produce un efecto estimulante de la imaginación y la conversación, más propio de variedades sativas.

Still trucking along. I had my light turned up a bit high for the first week, I turned them down a few days ago and all the plants seemed to enjoy it. Nothing else to report really.

I fed them again today. They haven’t been properly fed, this will be their first full feed. Hopefully they react well. Had some trouble with figuring out the nutes concentrations. Thanks to everyone who’s aided me with this grow. Big up to y’all.

Buds are still packing on both girls. New pistils still shooting out with no orange hairs showing yet. Im thinking this is going be be a longer finish, may go to 14/15 weeks if necessary. Going out of town for work, topped up the res with adding micro and bloom.

Han respondido bastante bien a la poda en pocos días se realizará el transplante a su macetas final y se le realizó una poda más. Estoy probando en este cultivo unas podas diferentes para ver el resultado en tiempo y desarrollo de la planta

I treated the plant with a long series of fertilizers and various boosters, I will list them all in the last week, now I have been running water for 12 hours a day for about 10 days .. I think a final wash does not exist better than this.

This is doing good just swelling up. Its gunna have some fat buds it looks like. Some of these never fully recovered from being stunted from the cold. I added some microbe life photosynthesis plus to the mix.
