1/4 - start of week 5, the broken branch isn't looking good. I installed the 5 arm light which is my biggest light for the veg compartment. 500ppfd right now, drop it 1 inch and I'm just a bit over 600 at canopy level. I'm hoping to get her to recover and ill bend the 2 remaining branches towards each other to fill the gap for a 3 arm lady, still planning to top but now will get 6, 12, and 24 tops...hopefully 1/5 - slight training day, I bound the 3 branches so that they were more uniform and evenly spaced out in the pot. I'll let her take shape a few days with the restraints and the. Top her maybe Friday. 1/7 - she got her topping. I'm leaving 2 nodes on each branch for a total of 12 tops right now. She will get one more topping before its all over for a total of 24 tops, probably 2 weeks out on that. Feeding in the next day or 2. Update: dropped the fan speed to 2 for temp and humidity testing. 1/9 - RAW Feeding tonight, she is starting to recover well from the topping, I now have 15 or so tops with one of the 3 arms splitting into 7 tops rather than 4. I think I will leave her this way to veg out to the height I need without further topping. I’m planning on training the shoots out to the sides so many more tops may develop as new nodes come through. I’m just really hoping she doesn’t start to flower on me early!! 2L distilled water 3g Grow 2g Kelp 0.57g Cal/Mag 2g Microbes Grow Stage 0.63g Amino Acids 0.14g Enzymes 6.0ph 66.9*F 1060ppm Also found a new way to mix my RAW nutrients without having them stick to the bottom...small landscaping pond pump! It gets the water moving nicely and I just drop the dry nutes in, mixes it for me and I can easily fine tune PH and test PPM without having to shake and take samples! Huge win. 1/10 - Another week in the books. Did some fan leaf tucking so the tops had direct light. I'm still trying to grow her sideways so I'm thinking a solid 3 or 4 more weeks of veg. Things should speed up now though. I dont think I will be topping again but we shall see. Topping again would guarantee 30 tops which according to my math is a bit too many for my grow space.

Another good week in the garden. Weather outside has turned cooler and wet but tent keeps an even 25c at 60 RH and smells great! I keep making excuses to put my head in n take a big breath. They still taking water every morning and dry within 24 hrs but I think she is starting to slow down now. Pistills turning darker and buds getting sticky n fat. Bit of frosting on the topmost sugar leaves and are beginning to fade in colour. Cleaning my loupe ready for next week. Titan is doing great too, can't wait for her to have the tent to herself and see what she can do.

06/02/2020 Gonna feed them today 1tbls of blood meal. I snapped a branch on #2 (see video) her stems, I don't like break to easy so I will give some micro nutrients to help stems from breaking. Unless she is the HOLY GRAIL. I will cull her clone. All others handed super cropping well. 🙏 #4 in hydro is in it's own diary called Small Batch Seed making some F1 #1 showed her sex today, clones well took cut on 05/20/2020 is rooting well outside in coco coir, in humidity dome just cut and scrape the stem,once rooted I cut off yellowing leaves i hope her smoke is as good as she looks. 5 days into week 10 and #2, and #4 are male so indoors they go for pollen collection. Will dust one bud of each female with each male and hunt for what I want. Also see what each passes on in the cross.

Dear friends, Please consider this week as Harvest, I divide the two plants below the explanation. We have arrived at the time of harvest for our two Runtz I divide them respectively in the last two weeks to help you distinguish them and because having shot a lot I would like you to look carefully at what we are talking about and please deepen the vision of the trichomes that characterize each plant. They seem similar but you can notice differences and in the macros also look at other details such as the surface of the leaves, really very beautiful. The plants are not giants by definition, this is a very stable strain with not very high heights, the yield is always medium high but the strong point is certainly the quality of the flower: density, hardness and above all scary resin combined with a super romantic purple shade arrived with the cold in the final. Beautiful plant, beautiful main cola. Mature very red pistils resin overflowing for real. The purple color is really super beautiful I prepare a nice video where I show it to you. The trichomes are multicolored due to the presence of purple, here too we have stuff from pink to fuchsia to dark purple plus the classic colors, the maturation is at a point that I don't mind at all. In weight we will be around 30 - 40 grams but of excellent quality, let's wait for the dry sla and see. Perfect strain compliments to Zamnesia breeder. Most likely nowadays those who give the impression of doing Cannabis Industry manage to provide a product of extreme quality much more than the small breeders who are all stealing strains from California and crossing them with their little experiments. It is no longer the era of the flower children although we have to thank them for the anarchic work they did in the 60s and 70s now it's time to work well, cannabis is spreading all over the world and you can compete with the Americans only by working well, like they do in Zamnesia. How can I prove it to you? In the years in which I was a tester the breeders made me try a lot of good stuff but often, very often, too often I found hermaphrodites. Now always bringing up good luck, touching wood, where the sun don't shine, doing all the appropriate spells of the case we are at ZERO HERMAPHRODITES. No seeds, no balls, nothing at all and after all the years that I have heard the "expert freaks" of breeding talk now I feel like recommending the seeds of the industries much more than the small houses. I thank all the good operators of small houses and I apologize to them but I will never grow their stuff again there is an exaggerated percentage of hermaphrodites. The industries whether you like it or not guarantee success rates much much better. Especially for the wave of beginners arriving. Zamnesia 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.

Still got some slight burning of leaf tips more so on the right side of the tent. Otherwise, growth is good. Stratiolaelaps scimitus are now abundant in the soil. Pretty neat. GIBBERELLIN: Note: As gibberellic acid is not soluble in water you need to dissolve in alcohol first, Mixed 0.75g Gibberellic Acid 90% with 50ml of 99% Isoprponal alcohol , (Any alcohol will do but a higher % works better) also warmer alcohol helps dissolve the gibberellin. Mixed with 1000ml =1L of distilled water, bringing the concoction to 400ppm. 2000ml = 200ppm etc Every plant has a different threshold required to elicit a response, 400ppm is on the high end of the scale I've read to be careful with dosage as it's easy to over-apply, let's find out if it does anything like it described. Added bunch of enzymes, aminos, 5 or so different kelp. Can be kept for 1 week in the refrigerator. Nutrients for the week are recipe foliar application. The speaker (containing a 3 KHz signal and nature sounds) is played at high volume with high treble and medium bass for 10 minutes before spraying the plants. The plants are then sprayed while it's playing and the sound is continued for another 20 minutes after spraying. Both sides of the leaves should be saturated. Treatment is best performed early in the morning/daylight, preferably in foggy 65+RH% dew. On cold mornings, spraying should be delayed until late afternoon if outdoors. Do not spray plants when the temperature falls below 50o F. The formula also can be administered in the regular weather supply, by drip-feeding, hydroponics, etc.. The nutrient solution should be applied once somewhere in first 4 weeks, then twice weekly thereafter. https://biologydictionary.net/gibberellin/ Once a plant has sprouted past the surface of the soil, the endosperm is long gone. The plant must now rely on photosynthesis for food. However, the role of gibberellin does not stop at the seed. Gibberellin is responsible for many aspects of plant development. Further, plants produce many forms of gibberellin molecules, which act on different parts of the plant. In the image below, you can see the effects of a specific gibberellin applied to a plant. In number 1, no gibberellin was applied. Plants 2 and 3 both had gibberellins applied, with plant 3 receiving the highest dose. Gibberellin here encourages the plants to increase their internode length or the length between their leaves. In many plants, the regulation of gibberellin is an important natural process that regulates their height due to this process. At the cellular level, gibberellin is influencing the balance of proteins. In doing so, it encourages cell growth and elongation in the stems and between nodes. In some species of plants, gibberellin is involved in many more processes. These include flowering, fruiting, and senescence, or the natural death of leaves and other plant parts. Interestingly, many genes that regulate and adjust gibberellin levels are influenced by the temperature. Thus, when the temperature changes during seasonal change, the plants react to this as gibberellin levels change. This starts off many processes such as flowering and fruiting. Gibberellin molecules are involved with and interact with other plant hormones. The auxin level, for example, is directly related to the gibberellin level, and the two complement each other. Ethylene, on the other hand, tends to degrade gibberellin levels. Plants use these hormones, which respond to different inputs, to balance and react to inputs from the environment. These inputs signal various environmental conditions, which the plant is keen to take advantage of. Gibberellin Structure Gibberellin molecules of different types are synthesized in many different parts of the plant. Currently, there are over 100 uniquely identifiable gibberellin molecules. These molecules are synthesized in many cells of the plant, but tend to be concentrated in the roots. This is different from auxin, which tends to concentrate at the apex. Gibberellin is a diterpenoid, which is a familiar and highly represented molecule in biochemistry. It forms the basis of molecules like Vitamin A and Vitamin E. Seen below is Gibberellin A1, which was the first identified gibberellin. Other gibberellins have the same basic structure, but have various side groups attached. These groups affect where and how the gibberellin acts, which is how gibberellin can have so many diverse and unique functions in different tissues

Hello Growers 👋 👋 👋 At last I am doing an update 😇 It's Day 49th big changes occur in my tent. She is a cracker 😇 😇 😇 after that small L.S.T. she released her potential. She is so so so huge, all that tops you can see are a side branches 🤯 🤯 The Gelato growing very healthy and very fast, this is one of my best looking plant so far. I'm very happy to see her in that condition, it's looks like the harvest could be very big 😀 😎 😀 Please have a proper afternoon rest 🙏 You Lovely Girls Growers 😇 🌻

5/14 - Coming along well. No noticeable changes to the leaves that seemed impacted by the heat. Still working through the pH damage but seem to have a good line on it and doesn't seem to be continuing to affect the buds. The strain with the purple buds (Plant #1) still continues to fatten up and is only keeping the purple color within the bud and not much on the leaves. The other is really getting some fat buds - much fatter than the purple strain. Noticing some slight foxtail on the bud closest to the light, so I might raise the light and dial back the intensity some if need be.

I started out with two plants, well, I still have two plants but I dropped one when I was changing the nutrient solution. It isn't dead, but it hasn't grown any either since I changed to 12/12 light a week ago. Trashed the stunted one. The remaining one looks like it needed the room anyway.

Heading into the final week (for some) and we have some real beauties coming through, honestly, there’s not 1 bad plant in this batch... some are definitely slightly longer flowering, so they’ll carry on a week or two longer. The smells I’m getting from these girls range from sweet tropical funk, to grape fizz pop, with the gassier smelling girls carrying citrus undertones... the gassier smelling bunch all needing the extra week or two, with the tropical fruit funks and grape fizz pop all aiming to do it in around 60days. I am super amped about this run, I'm struggling to find ones that I don't want to keep 😅 so I'll do another full run of the crop just to make extra sure I'm not getting rid of anything just yet.
