Last run of the growing season. Biscotti Mintz by Barney's Farm. I wasn't satisfied with the last crop's yield so i wanted another crack at it. This time I'm armed with a digital Lux meter so i can better dial in the light without the guesswork. Looking to start the clones off with between 5000 and 7000 LUX at the canopy. But i didn't like the brightness at 8000 so i upped it to 15,000 Lux. I think the 5k to 8k Lux recommendations for clones was for clones in the process of rooting. Recommended Lux values for vegging plants is between 15,000 and 50,000 Lux. They were very lanky with long internodal spacing which I thought might be insufficient lighting. Because the other Biscotti Mintz grows and research i've done, shows a very bushy indica trait growth pattern. So either i have a shitty pheno, or my lighting wasn't good enough. I'm guessing it was the light because preliminary testing with the Lux meter showed that my canopy was quite under lit last run. Again using 3 gallon pots, this time i am crossing my fingers with the substrate because it is reused coco that i washed and buffered myself. I've never done this before so i have no idea what's going to happen. For all i know they will all be dead in a few days lol. Anyways, i tested the coco pH last night, and after buffering with 2x strength calmag and soaking the coco in a 6.0 pH for 48 hours, the pH is sitting around 6.8 in the coco. Not where I wanted it, but it's doable. I believe the coco brand new out of the bag measures at 6.8 so... I will be watering in 6.0 pH to try to achieve a balance. Treating the roots before planting with Azos and dusting the planting hole with Mykos. The nutrient solution is very mild to start off. About 450ppm. Hygrozyme will be added to the mix and watered in to help break down the old dead root matter that wasn't able to be sifted out of the coco. The cellulase will break those roots down into usable food for the plant to uptake, and clean up the dead roots at the same time. Hygroben will also be added because i have some left from the last crop. And after seeing the results of using bacteria, i'm pretty sold on using it. Today is March 4th, 2024. I like to start on the first of the month but i like starting on Monday's better for keeping my weed soaked brain organized a little easier. I'm thinking to do half strength doses 2x per week instead of full doses 1x per week. It's twice the mixing, but that's ok. There will be 7 plants in total, and the experiment i am running this time, for anyone that wants to check out, is 1 of the plants i will do a seriously severe defoliation on while leaving the rest untouched. And we'll see how it plays out yield wise. I'm sure of the outcome already, but I'm tired of the babbling dummies all over the place that preach fan leaves fan leaves... So we shall see! I had the pH of the nutrient solution set to 6.0 but after adding the enzyme and liquid bacteria, the pH dropped to 5.78, so beware of that if you use those products, even though they claim not to affect the pH. The light dimmer is set to 6 of 10. The clip fan is set to 2 of 10. Temps set to 74F and humidity set to 70% humidity. The light is 18 inches from the canopy at a dimmer setting of 6, which gives the canopy 15,000 Lux. Each plant was gently watered with about 300ml of nutrient solution, which was carefully and gently dispensed with a 140CC syringe Hope they like what i've done with the place lol. P.S. I realized that the 5000 to 7000 Lux was for clones that are rooting. So I had the lux at 12,000 at 18 inches from the plants at a dimmer value of 5. I've now upped the dimmer to 6. Tomorrow i'll check the lux and see where it's at. The clones have just come out of the dome today so i don't want to push them too aggressively too fast. MARCH 5, 2024 I just tested the Par light reading on BM #1 and the BM right in the center. BM #1 Par reading is 247. Center plant is 270. Light dimmer is at 6 and light is now 13 inches from plant canopy. MARCH 9, 2024 Fed again today. There is some progress in growth. 1/2 inch increase. The clones have been upset getting adjusted to their new environment. I've upped the dimmer to 7 and the PPFD and DLI numbers are good. Humidity remains set at 70% and temperature is set to trigger the fan at 78F Light remains where it was so the plants have grown 1/2 so the light will be 12 inches above the canopy. Mixed up 2 liters of nutrients and the ppm was 555, and the pH was adjusted to 6.15. 2ml Per liter of hygrozyme and hygroben were also added. Clones have curled leaves and a perky/droopy stature. The leaf edges are browning a little bit. I'm not sure whats happening with them other than it's just the effects of transplanting and drastic environmental change. What i'm wondering is how they will/are reacting to the used coco underneath? We press on with fingers crossed! 🙏😁

Two weeks after the germination of the seeds, the plants look great. Next week, they will be moved to larger 19-liter pots. Next, we'll perform topping (fimming) and low-stress training (LST).

This is my first indoor tent grow so I´m quite excited. I chose Critical Kush Auto from Barney's Farm, because I heard that this autoflowering plant is ready for harvest in 8-9 weeks. It has a small size, usually 50 cm and no more than 90 cm, which is perfect for my small tent.. Update: 7th March 2021, the seed that I planted directly in to the jiffy didn´t germinate at all.. So I put a second seed and put it 24h into a glas of water and after that 36h into a paper towel and the results are way better!

Looks awesome in her 4th week since we changed the light cycle to 12-12 she's developing a big fat main cola which I think it's gonna be reeal fat in a couple of weeks, the smell of this strain it's not very strong yet however she has a really nice piney smell, let's see how this jack orange keeps developing her buds, I hope she gets to produce a lot of strong terps, not very strong smell at the moment. Stay tuned to see how this girl perfoms. See you on the next one growmies! 💚❤️💛✌️

nice 😀

April 22nd No changes to nut's, temp, or humidity, but we did have to raise the lights with the growth. I may have mixed up a couple of my Green Crack grow's images but I did the exact same with both grows with amazing results both times, so if you see three then four plants it is due to my well intentioned intent to post each of these as I did them but forgot. LOL

Very happy with how this lady has performed, amazing quality buds, very sticky and dense flower with a concrete smell that I love so much, which is that kind of fruity sweet flavor that this lady is able to produce, it's been a beautiful journey, I'm gonna enjoy a lot this flowers. Very recomended guys!

Week 8 in the books, cruising to the finish line two more hard watering each and 48 hrs of darkness starting Friday. Genetics: Natty Roots Seed Co Instagram: @green_house_lab

… just moved into my new home by @original_homebox and lads i can tell: the climate controlled by the @growcontrol.de growbase makes me so happy. Its so much nicer here than in that shady chamber. I also had my first „real“ simulated sunrise today . Omg its so cozy living at my new place. And i also have a training appointment with @le_rouge._ soon. I‘m so exited. Can‘t wait to show you more growth.

Week 8. They got their First flush. Look at those beauties. Better pictures by the end of the week.

Had some humidity issues been watering with spring water until I get something to filter the tap water Jan.8th amnesia haze 1 got bit taller so I did some more LST

Cherry is quickly making me forget all about the tragic death of her sister. She is really bulking up and starting to really put on the frost even some fan leaves are starting to become frosty. She may have started slow but MAN is she making up for it now.

Week 4 Veg & First Flowering Report: Runtz Battle 🌿✨ Hey, green warriors and cannabis aficionados! 🌱🔥 We’re rolling into week 4, and it’s time for the exciting transition into flowering. Our Runtz plants have been thriving, and we’re gearing up for a spectacular bloom phase. Let’s dive into the progress and celebrate the journey! Week 4 Veg Progress 🌟 As we wrap up week 4 of the vegetative stage, here’s a snapshot of how our Runtz plants are doing: • Healthy Transition 🌿: • All plants are looking robust and healthy, with vibrant foliage and strong growth. The transition into flowering is approaching smoothly, thanks to the solid foundation laid during the veg stage. • F1 Compactness 🌟: • The F1 strain is showing impressive compactness, with a well-structured and dense canopy. This trait is ideal for maximizing yield and ensuring even light distribution during the flowering phase. Flowering Phase Begins 🌸🚀 We’re officially entering the flowering phase, and the excitement is palpable. Here’s what’s happening: • Flowering Transition 🌿: • Our plants are beginning their journey into bloom, and the change is evident. The initial signs of flowering are emerging, setting the stage for a productive and beautiful flower cycle. • Autopots Activated 💧: • The Autopots are now fully operational, allowing gravity to manage our watering system efficiently. This setup ensures consistent hydration, freeing up time while maintaining optimal moisture levels for our plants. • Environmental Conditions 🌡️: • Water Levels: We’re maintaining consistent water levels with TDS at 400 and pH at 6.2, ensuring optimal nutrient absorption and plant health. • Temperature: The room temperature is set at a cool 18°C, providing a stable environment conducive to healthy growth. • Room Conditions: With a room temperature of 30.3°C and a relative humidity (RH) of 51%, we’re keeping the environment balanced to support robust flowering. Nutrient and Care Strategy 🌱💧 As we move into flowering, our nutrient and care approach is key: • Watering and Nutrients 🌿: • We’re continuing with the Regulator and CaMg Boost in the reservoir, as the soil is rich in biolife and nutrients. The goal is to see if these organic inputs, combined with the soil’s inherent nutrition, can sustain the plants through the flowering phase. • Environmental Control 🌡️: • Maintaining precise environmental conditions is crucial for a successful flowering phase. The combination of stable temperature, balanced humidity, and the Autopots system ensures our plants have everything they need to thrive and produce high-quality buds. Looking Ahead 🌟🌿 As we step into the flowering phase, the anticipation is high. Our Runtz plants are set to showcase their full potential, and we’re excited to see the results. Each week brings new developments, and we’re committed to nurturing these beautiful plants to their fullest. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue this journey. Here’s to a fantastic flowering phase filled with growth, discovery, and green magic. 🌟💚 #RuntzBattle #Week4Veg #FirstFloweringReport #Autopots #CannabisCommunity #FloweringPhase #PlantHealth #GreenMagic #NutrientStrategy #GrowStrong #StayPositive Germination method 🌱 @thecannakan Genetics Runtz F1 @zam.nesia Runtz auto @kannabiaglobal Nutrition @aptusholland 🌿 @aptus_world 🌎 @aptus_es 🌍 @aptusbrasil 🌱 @aptus_thailand 🌿 @aptus_portugal 🌳 @aptususa_official 🍀 @aptusplanttechnz 🌺 @aptusplanttechaus 🍃 Ambient controls🎮 @trolmaster.eu @trolmaster.eu.support @trolmaster.support @trolmaster.agro Soil @promix_growers_eur @promix_cannabis LED - @lumatekeu Watering- @autopot_usa @autopot_global Love and attention- @dogdoctorofficial #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trolmaster #trolmastereurope #trolmastersecrets #Autopots #RuntzBattle #KannabiaVsZamnesia #GreenJoy As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and so joyful with you all in my life 🙏 With true love comes happiness 💚🙏 Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so 💚 More info and complete updates from all my adventures can be found ⬆️ link in the profile description ⬆️ Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only 💚Growers Love To you All 💚

From start to her finish she has been a great plant to grow. Given more space and light to herself would have given a huge yielding plant i feel. She grew long branches and her node spacing was fairly good but a little wide for compact growing like the quadlining uses. In a scrog she would perform amazing and i would recommend this to anyone unsure of growing the strain. she could get very big if left untrained !!! Her response to training was always excellent and even when losing a limb from my error , she bounced back quickly with a pair to compensate. They soon caught up with the older limbs too. Her buds get very dense and are prone to budrot if the Rh is not managed. You need a lot of good airflow around the buds themselves to even hope to avoid it with these huge thick colas. I lost about 1oz in rotted bits during the last few weeks of the grow and pre drying trim. Overall, loved growing this girl and she impressed me at every turn. One for the future. well done barneys Farm

Seen some good growth. Lots of leafs to dispose of with defoliating 5 plants.

Seguimos utilizando los mismos productos que la semana pasada, solo que esta vez aumentando el EC a 1,2. Hoy 26 de febrero lavamos las raíces. Yo creo que tal vez estaban con un bloqueo de nutrientes, no se ve como si estuvieran sobre fertilzidas porque creo que las hojas estarían más de un color verde oscuro y duras, como cuando parecen casi de plásticos. Ahora las hojas están como caídas, con esas puntas amarillas, lo cual me preocupa. Espero que con el lavado de raíces vaya mejor. No hemos podido controlar bien la temperatura y ha llegado a 26 durante algunas horas, podría la temperatura causar este efecto en las plantas? Gracias por leer y cualquier concejo es bienvenido 💚

São 3 plantas da CBD Auto da Fast Buds , qualidade comprovada , duas estão bem parecidas e uma deu uma alongada no caule mas tem também boas flores achknqje as 3 me deram uma boa colheita geral.

flowering, we swell a little bit

Double Dunked got harvested 16/11 and I'm planning to let her dry for 14-21 days before trimming and put them in glass+boveda (58%) and grove bags for final cure. Drying conditions are as follows: 16-18°C 55-60% RH
