Indica vs. Sativa

We loved this old meme

10/17 Week 9 2cd of flower They look very good Slightly caged them to keep them from widening and am securing the stretchy main stems to bring them down and get a better canopy. Prob stay on this feed till late flower may increase PK later on Up to 29-ish inches now, expect 36-40 inches max 10/20 Slight increase in bloom nuets Slight increase in Peak PK Hitting 32" dont expect much beyond 36

Day 78 plants are now going to grow outdoor. Clones coming along nicely. This week I'm giving the mothers a chance to get used to outdoor grow. Day 84, mother enjoying the sun, got 91 clones from the first 3 batches.

Welcome Back!💚 Nach der vierten Blütewoche konzentriert sich die Pflanze voll auf die Blütenproduktion! Der Stretch hat sich allmählich eingestellt, den es kamen nur noch 2 cm an höhe hinzu. In der vergangenen Woche, habe ich nur nochmal die untersten Blätter und Seitentriebe rausgenommen. Jetzt bleibt die Pflanze so wie sie ist.. Auch die Entwicklung der Aromen nimmt an Fahrt auf, es ist ein leicht süßer Geruch wahrnehmbar. Die Pflanze ist von der Beschreibung her nicht darauf getrimmt viele Trichome auszubilden, da dass Hauptaugenmerk ja auch auf die THCV Produktion gelegt wurde. Die Umgebungsgegebenheiten sind gut: ————— 🌞 Temp: 23°C 🌚 Temp: 18°C bis 19°C 💨 RH: 52% VPD: 0,85 kPa 😎 PPFd: 830 mqm ————— Viele Grüße 👋

🙏 Big thanks to Plagron and Zamnesia for putting on the Eternity Grow Cup 2025. This kind of platform means a lot to the community. The chance to push our grows, test out new techniques, and connect with other cultivators from all over has been inspiring. Appreciate the love and effort that went into making this event happen! Hope everyone enjoyed looking over my shoulder on this grow and best of luck to all participants! REVIEW - Runtz (fem., photo.) from Zamnesia: ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬜⬜ The seeds from Zamnesia germinated rapidly, rooted strongly, went wild in veg, and produced an ample amount of high-quality medicinal flower. The diary speaks for itself on that front so this space will be more of a phenotype review. The plants were labelled A, B, and C from left to right respectively in photos. A and B were the 'clasicaly-appearing' sativa-esque leaves while C was the more 'indica-appearing' phenotype. Although A and B appear the same qualitatively, they did produce substantially different amounts of flower (despite their DLI being near max out for the entire tent footprint without supplementing CO2, so I do not think just being in the middle attributed to this). Past their different yields, A and B also have vastly different profiles. A is a classic gelato/ice cream cooler/Z terps, and my personal favorite of the plants (wish I had taken a clone of this one instead). B is the most on point for what I think of with Runtz, classic Z terps but with a slight tropical/rotten/sweetness to it. C had the misfortune of being ready to chop a little earlier than the other girls so her profile is mostly just spicey kush now. I did observe intersex flower sites but given the entire context of the diary and how the plants performed, I have to assume it was user error. No pollination observed in any of the flowers, as zero additional intersex sites occurred. The distinction between A, B and C is what I would expect from a typical F1 cannabis seed. I do not enjoy growing from seed much but these girls were manageable. Add to that the relative stability of the genetics for a Runtz recreation, and well, these are good quality beans for a great price. Not only is Zamnesia responsive and available, their confidence speaks volumes. How many vendors would have an in-house Runtz, knowing how much of a genetic-gravity-well it is in, and be confident enough to let ~200 randos grow it and show it? REVIEW - Green Sensation from Plagron: ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬜⬜ I enjoyed using the green sensation, the NPK values on it make it versatile in application and a power-house in flower. I can't say I noticed anything better or dramatically improved, although comparing to Heavy 16 and asking for a marked improvement is big ask in my opinion. What I was able to do was seamlessly integrate the Green Sensation into my current routine. The additive stayed homogenous, was easily introduced into solutions with no adverse impact to the water contents or pH. Most importantly, the plants enjoyed the additive and it did accomplish the main goal of being able to wane off your primary line. In this respect, by using Green Sensation I was able to save resources by lowering my Heavy 16 inputs across the board approximately 50% and supplementing with Plagron's Green Sensation.

They are bulking up a bit more. Still nice and bushy both, still think both will be female. Finally, colours are getting greener and they are filling out nicely. Last couple of weeks before harvest, when my tent is filled to the edges on all sides and the plants can only go up is the moment I will hit the switch to 12/ 12. Thank you @MarsHydroLED, check out awesome deals on: www.mars-hydro.com I gave them a bigger feed today, up to now I have been stingy on the water, to prevent the gnats and let the root systems develop. Thank you for checking in on my grows and your comments and likes!

So here is the GH Cheese weight... I expected them to be low yielders.... Just not this low... Very disappointed with the weight.. Taking into account how much it cost me to run these ladies..... Huge Loss financially 😭😭

Vamos familia, actualizamos la cuarta semana de vida de estas Runtz Punch de Herbies. Tuve problemas con la temperatura que estuvo alta 28/26 grados y humedad dentro de los rangos correctos, la única queja es la temperatura, 16 horas luz, 8 oscuridad, estiraron un poco, pero van lentas por el momento, que cojan fuerza. El trasplante a sido realizado a la maceta definitiva, 7L con sustrato Top crop. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Everything looks really great. Flower has reallt taken hold here at the end of week 5. Ive started my flower hardener (mendocino avalanche) and they really have perked up. Im getting much slower dry out than i woukd like, next time more perlite in my bottom layer for sure. These larger pots (7.5 gallon) really take some dialing in but the plants love them for sure. I habe 6 inches of roots coming out of the bottom of all of them. Ill try to get a picture.

We've made it to day 28! - 17/12/20 The girls seem to be happy and healthy today. I won't be feeding/watering them as the pots are still heavy from yesterdays feed. A few of the girls have started to show sex & the smell has picked up a little bit(inside the tent), so I'm hoping to see some flowering begin this week sometime. (I've been using my iPhone as my only DSLR lens is useless for focusing on certain depths, but I hate the colour I get using the iPhone... I may be switching back to DSLR unless I can find a better camera app.) update - day 29 (18/12/20) Short update today. Fed the girls today and will probably be feeding/watering every day from here on out, we'll see though. veg growth has really taken off by now, I'm hoping to see some flowering this week. update - day 30 (19/12/20) I fed the girls today. I need to find a better way to hand water, the plants are so short and bushy its a pain getting in between all the branches. I wish i left my drip feed system up and running, I will definitely refine it and use it next run. Update - day 31 (20/12/20) Fed the girl's straight water today. I'm going to purchase the pieces I need tomorrow to reconfigure my drip feed system & hopefully have it running by mid-week! Update - day 32 I attempted to set up my drip feed system today but the plants are too thick around the base to place the halo around :( I will have to wait until next season to set it up, oh well, I guess its hand watering for the next 5-10 weeks Fingers crossed these girls start to flower ASAP. I fed the girls today, everything is looking good so far. I also moved the plants around to try to make hand watering easier, I had issues trying to water the whole pot instead of just one spot due to plants/branches being in the way. Update - Day 34 - 23/12/20 It definitely seems ill be watering the girls every day from here on out. All the girls look fairly happy and healthy, they're getting a bit big for the 5x5 they're in. It looks like flowering has begun on 2 of the girls, hoping to see some more progress on the others in the next few days. Thanks for stopping by! 🙏

420Fastbuds FBT2313/Week 6 What up growmies. Weekly update on these beautiful ladies. This week we've had some temperature swings and wow did they not like getting down into the high 50's. They both bounced back but won't be letting it get that cold again if I can help. Flower sites are all over with pistols. No signs of any major issues so will keep the same routine. All in all Happy Growing

Weekly update. Sorry it was a late update this week I was out of town (Bizcon2024). Wow have they grown, I'd say doubling in size. I've upped the watering to 1000ml daily, this week I'll do a major defoliation and lollipoping. All in all Happy Growing

Early morning day 1 we got a good rain. The girls loved it. This week has cooler night time Temps, storms, and low 90s upper 80s f day time Temps. Plants are getting into the super soil and out of the safe zone of plain organic soil. Next time I'll use a stronger mix of liquid feed for the safe zone. The plants didn't get enough nutes to grow fast. I'm still dialing in super soil/organic so there's a learning curb. I'm a little worried about topping these as I got a late start outdoors. I topped the biggest this week. The smallest got ravaged by an insect so I'll just let it grow out naturally.

10. Woche Ich weiß noch nicht ob ganz, was ich von der Pflanze halten soll. Sie wächst ähnlich wie Apple Strudel Auto von Fastbuds und bis jetzt lassen die prächtigen Buds noch auf sich warten. Aber ich denke mal, es dauert jetzt auch easy noch 5-6 Wochen, ehe sie fertig ist. Bis dahin halte ich die Düngerlinie aufrecht. Ich verwende auch schon den Boost von Hesi, da alle Pflanzen unterschiedlich weit sind. Bei Glowberry Rush Auto muss man ja dazu noch sagen, dass die eigentlich paar Tage hinterher hinkt so 5 Tage, weshalb es auch einfach daran liegen, dass sie noch nicht soweit aussieht wie die anderen. Ich vergesse das immer wieder 😅😊💚

💚 Amnesia Haze Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 6 | Elegance in Motion Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of the greatest joys of running a phenotype hunt is watching each plant slowly reveal its own identity. This week's spotlight belongs to Amnesia Haze Auto – Pheno A, and she continues to separate herself from the rest of the room. Tall. Graceful. A little unconventional. And absolutely fascinating. While many plants begin focusing on building dense flowers, this lady still seems determined to keep reaching upward, stretching with confidence while simultaneously stacking fresh blooms along every branch. She's writing her own story, and I'm more than happy to let her. ⸻ 🌱 The 12/12 From Seed Adventure If this is your first visit to this diary, welcome! Every plant in this project has been grown using my favourite cultivation experiment: 12/12 From Seed. Rather than giving the plants a traditional vegetative period, every seed has lived under a 12-hour light / 12-hour dark schedule from the moment it germinated. The objective isn't simply growing smaller plants. It's about discovering how different genetics—and even different phenotypes from the very same cultivar—express themselves when every environmental variable remains identical. Every plant enjoys: • The same grow room • The same lighting • The same nutrition • The same environmental conditions • The same training philosophy • The same care The only variable is genetics. And this Amnesia Haze continues proving just how unique those genetics can be. ⸻ 🌿 A Personality You Can't Miss This phenotype has become one of the easiest plants in the room to recognize. Her foliage is unlike almost anything growing beside her. The leaves are incredibly long and narrow, giving the entire plant a light, elegant appearance that perfectly complements her open structure. Many growers would immediately describe this as a "classic sativa look." Personally, I prefer to look beyond those traditional labels. Modern cannabis genetics are wonderfully diverse, and leaf shape doesn't necessarily predict how a plant will grow, flower or even express its effects. Still, there's no denying that this phenotype carries that beautiful tropical elegance that makes Amnesia Haze so iconic. It's simply a pleasure to watch. ⸻ 🌸 Flowers Taking Centre Stage This week she's fully committed to flowering. Fresh white pistils continue emerging across every flowering site, and the small budlets are beginning to link together along the branches. Interestingly, she still appears to be stretching. Rather than switching abruptly from vertical growth into flower production, she's balancing both at the same time. That's something I often enjoy seeing with more vigorous phenotypes. They continue building their framework while gradually filling it with flowers, creating plenty of room for each cola to develop over the coming weeks. Right now she's building the stage. Soon the performance begins. ⸻ 🍃 Wonderfully Different One of the things I appreciate most about this lady is that she refuses to fit neatly into expectations. Some of her upper leaves twist slightly. Others curl in unusual directions. The top growth has its own quirky character. Yet despite those unique traits, she's showing exactly what matters most. Healthy colour. Strong growth. No signs of nutrient deficiencies. No indication that she's struggling. Sometimes plants simply express themselves differently, and that's exactly why phenotype hunting is so rewarding. Perfection isn't always about uniformity. Sometimes it's about individuality. ⸻ 💧 Feeding for the Flowering Journey As flowering continues, the nutrition program is now fully supporting bloom development while maintaining the lush, healthy foliage the plant has carried since the beginning. Current nutrition includes: • Plagron Terra Bloom • Sugar Royal • Pure Zym • Power Buds • Green Sensation • pH adjustment using pH Plus and Lemon Kick This week also marks the introduction of Green Sensation, one of Plagron's flowering additives designed to support flower development throughout the final stages of bloom. Rather than relying on several separate bloom boosters, Green Sensation combines multiple functions into a single product, helping support flower formation, resin production and overall plant performance while keeping the feeding program simple and consistent. So far, this lady seems to be enjoying every drop. ⸻ 🌡️ Growing Together Under One Roof Although this is an autoflower, she's sharing the same flowering room as all of her photoperiod sisters. That's one of the aspects I enjoy most about this project. Every phenotype—auto or photoperiod—is experiencing the same environment, making it much easier to appreciate how genetics alone influence each plant's development. Current grow room conditions include: • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • pH: 6.0 • EC: 1.78 mS/cm • Solution temperature: 21°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 636 ppm Maintaining a stable environment allows every plant to express its natural potential without unnecessary fluctuations affecting the comparison. ⸻ 📸 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs capture exactly why this phenotype has become one of my favourites to observe. The full-plant portraits highlight her remarkable height and elegant structure, with long internodes creating an airy canopy that allows light to reach nearly every flowering site. The close-up photographs reveal clusters of brilliant white pistils beginning to gather along the stems, while the unique foliage gives every image a personality of its own. Some leaves reach outward like delicate fingers. Others curl gently around the developing flowers. Together they create a plant that looks almost wild, yet remains healthy, vigorous and full of life. She's impossible to confuse with anyone else in the room. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead Over the next couple of weeks I'm expecting this beautiful lady to gradually slow her stretch and shift more of her energy toward flower production. If her current structure is any indication, those long, elegant branches should eventually become lined with elongated flowers from top to bottom. She's already shown she prefers doing things her own way. Now I'm excited to see what kind of harvest that unique personality will produce. ⸻ 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Watching every phenotype reveal its own personality while growing under identical conditions continues to remind me that no two plants are ever truly alike. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing an incredible platform where growers from around the world can document, learn and inspire one another. Zamnesia for providing the genetics that make this phenotype hunt possible. 🌱 Plagron for supplying the nutrition supporting these plants from seed to harvest. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light powering this entire room every single day. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable environment where every phenotype can express its own unique potential. And finally, thank you to everyone following these diaries, sharing your thoughts, asking questions and joining me on this journey. Every plant tells a different story. Amnesia Haze Auto – Pheno A is proving that sometimes the most memorable plants aren't the ones that look perfectly uniform—they're the ones confident enough to grow in their own unique way. Growers Love. 💚🌿

The aroma is already incredibly intense, with a strong fruity profile and a deep apricot-like sweetness filling the space. The colors are developing beautifully, showing subtle purples and frosty highlights that make the buds really stand out. Structurally, the plant is essentially one continuous cluster of flowers, with buds forming everywhere from top to bottom. Bud stacking is still progressing rather slowly at this stage, but the overall flower coverage and terpene expression are extremely promising.

Branches are coming out slowly and surely…I await more growth so I can LST her.
