Ahhrrrrrggggghhhh PH imbalances! Don't panic. We got this. After a few theories and a bunch of research what I originally thought was light stress then a Cal Mag deficiency. Then I saw leaf damage and thought of Thrips. Wrong wrong and wronger. Turns out the soil PH is all out if wack. By which I mean waaaaaay too high. Like almost 8. That's what I get for not thinking PH was nOT tHaT BiG a dEaL. Now equipped with my PH and TDS meters and a little PH up and PH Down from Standard Hydroponics we can get thing back into balance. Lots of leaf growth this week. Looks like flowering is right around the corner. This will probably be the last week I'll feed her Grow Girls Grow from DSN and switch to Bloom Baby Bloom next week. I've also done some defoliation this week to get light to some of the bud sites. Again I had no idea LST was this powerful, she's gonna have such pretty flowers Looking forward to Bloom 🌹🚀🌻😎

Green Goblin had a bit of a rough start – unfortunately, one of the main stems snapped. 😕 Because of that, she’s grown a little wild and uneven. But overall, she’s doing well! 🌱 Her growth is slightly slower than the others, but she’s definitely holding her own. 🇺🇲 WEEK 7 -------------------------- 🔧 This week included: Lots of LST training Defoliation to improve light penetration Only watered with plain water, no pH adjustment strictly following the BioTabs schedule 💨 The smell is starting to develop nicely very promising! 💡 I’m planning to switch to 12/12 next week and send her into flowering as well. Curious to see how she performs in the next phase! 🌸🕛 🇩🇪 Woche 7 ------------------------- Die Green Goblin hatte es nicht ganz so leicht einer der Hauptriebe ist leider abgebrochen. 😕 Dadurch ist die Pflanze etwas ungleich und wild gewachsen. Trotzdem macht sie sich gut! 🌱 Das Wachstum ist minimal langsamer als bei den anderen, aber im Gesamtbild steht sie ihnen in nichts nach. 🔧 Diese Woche wurde einiges gemacht: Viel LST-Training Entlaubung zur besseren Lichtverteilung Nur mit Wasser gegossen – ganz ohne Anpassung, streng nach dem BioTabs-Schema 💨 Der Geruch entwickelt sich ebenfalls sehr gut vielversprechend! 💡 Auch bei ihr werde ich voraussichtlich nächste Woche auf 12/12 umstellen und damit die Blüte einleiten. Bin gespannt, wie sie sich in der nächsten Phase schlägt! 🌸🕛

******************************************** 📋 Comments I really like the structure of this plant, and I'm tempted to do another just because she looks awesome. 📋 Data Seed to havest=114 days. Veg time=28 days. Flower time=86 days. Wet weight=805g Dry weight=86g 📋 Smoke report This smoke is nice, slight skunk taste with a bit of a sour lemon after taste. Strength wise I'd guess she'd be around the 25% THC mark. 📋Grow stats for GDG 23 #1 Runtz=50g #2 Fat Bastard=86g Total=136g Lights on. 20hrs×7days=140hrs 18hrs×21days=378hrs 12hrs×86days=1032hrs Total hours=1550hrs Light power=159.09Kw Rad power=105.69Kw Extractor=39.93Kw 4 gang=50.91Kw Top fan=21.36Kw Total electricity=376 98KW Electricity cost @£0.25/Kw=£94.25 Average light power a day=1.4Kw Average watt per hour=102w g/watt=(136÷102)=1.33g/w £/g=£0.73/g 📋Final word. Trimed on the 14/6/25. Trimming was quite easy, not to long in trim jail. 86g of solid nugs and 7g of nugs I couldn't be bothered trying to trim, they can go with the trim for hash. I would highly recommend growing this strain. Back soon. Take it easy. ********************************************

Was a little bit challenging for me, due to the outdated nutrients table, mostly on the Flowering period, also little thing like i have to fill more the pots, also with this kind a strain and also with cuts instead of seeds, may be is better to don't do the topping and don't loose time and energy on the vegetative period. At the same time, more or less about the 8th week of flowering it starts to appear something like Alternalia or Overfeed of Phosphor still don't sure. All this issues have impact the grow in terms of the size of the branches and the whole plant, the size of the buds and the hardness. In strictly terms about the strain, the quality is out of mind, amount of resin is crazy, just have to improve my skills and get bigger crops

The plants continue to grow although slowly. I turned the Gavita back on this week and even at 42 inches it seems to be too much light at full power because although they're getting adequate nutrients, the leaves appear to be showing signs of damage to the chlorophyll pigments. I'd like to splurge and get the adapter and controller so that I can dim the light and slowly increase the intensity to allow for a more gradual photo acclimation period, but I will probably hold off until my next run. I've also considered adding supplemental Co2 to help the plants more effectively tolerate and take advantage of the light intensity, but it seems like a big expense for an uncertain benefit considering all of the other variables that are sub-optimal. Perhaps I'll give those Excellofizz Co2 pucks a try. Someday I'll build sealed grow room with automated Hvac, feeding, and Co2 enrichment but for now I'll soldier on and hope for the best as the flip to 12-12 approaches. More to come next week!

Removed the 2 Xs 1500's (300watts) & replaced them with 2 P1000 (200watts) lights, now running 680 watts. These lights fit in better & have air space all around to help cool them, these lights run a lot cooler than the xs 1500s & only get warm not hot. Started some clones.

Hey now, hope everyone is enjoying their weekend....Good week for the Cream Mandarine Auto, she is still eating like crazy, I did switch her to the the ripening nutes, and will be switching to straight H20 here in the the next week or so based on what her triches look like under my miscroscope...her buds are definitely getting tight and sticky, and I had to provide support for 4 colas so far that were sagging towards the floor as the buds swelled up...Mars Hydro also sent me a tent to test out, it is a 4x4 main compartment, and also two smaller sections which are 4x2 and 4x6, which I will use the smaller one for seedings, and the larger one for drying flower. I will absolutely be running another Cream Mandarine Auto, she has been great, and she absolutely reaks every time I open the tent. I had her out last night for about an hour while I set up the new tent and she literally made my whole house stink. Very happy withe these genetics so far, I think she will be ready in 7-12 days but we will see.... I hope everyone enjoys the rest of your weekend, be safe and blaze on!

This week I kept low stress training the ladies. Am watering them approximately every 4 days. As you can see they are doing mighty fine. Gorilla (front left) is getting really bushy. Solomatic (front right) is looking nice, but small. Stress killer (back) has recovered and is stretching.

Welcome to the Zamnesia Spring Cup. Hi everyone :-) I hope you are all fine 🙏🏻. This week the lady has developed really well 😍👍, which probably has something to do with the Monster Bud Mix that she has been using for a few days 😎. I will top her tomorrow for the first time. After a few more days, I will spontaneously decide whether to do LST or a few more times top :-) Depending on what time allows and how it develops 🤗. It seems to be a very nice genetics. This is how you are used to from Zamnesia 😍🙏🏻. I wish you all a good start to the week, stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 😎👍 Zamnesia Spring Cup 🏆 Type: Runtz ☝️🏼 Genetics: Zkittlez x Gelato 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205 W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Bio ☝️🏼 Nutrients : Monster Bud Mix ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

So at day 22 I got a small grow tent (36"x20"x63" because it's starting to get cold outside and plant was in a not so insulated shed. Hopefully my grow light will keep her warm enough for now. I will eventually have to invest in a small space heater with a thermostat. She's been though a lot of obstacles (temperature, humidity etc.) But I must say she's looking a lot better. I am open to any suggestions and thanks to the guys that gave me some info. I'm looking to get a cheap efficient fix for heating for my grow tent, if anyone have any suggestions please let me know. Thanks Day 23......so my little grow tent is is doing it's job. Temperature is staying at about 78 to 82° so I'm a little happy. Still running grow light constantly until I figure out a way to heat efficiently. I do notice some water inside my tent but I do have a an inlet fan coming soon but I might just use it as an exaust. Day 24 bigger and prettier. She growing, I guess I'm doing something right😊. Day 25...... installed an exaust fan because I was getting sweat inside my tent because it's (my grow tent) is in a shed and with the heat inside the tent and the temp in the shed. Hopefully this helps my situation. I also got temperature sensor hooked up to a heated bulb so we'll see where this goes. But my plant is growing fine for now and I'm actually seeing some growth. Let me know what you guys think.

Took well to defoliation Weather is so bad, she is not getting any sun. Looks like it'll be like this for the foreseeable future :( The top was getting too bushy so I did some lst and opened her up to take up max sun on the odd day that it shines

Hello let's call this first week of flower, she started to smell a little bit, also startet stretching, very strong plant! Have some Phosphorus deficiency (curled discolored leaves, yellow leaf tips) so i'm feeding half dose of Big Buds from Advanced Nutrients (NPK 0,1,3), let's see how she reacts. Day 30 TRYING TO FIX PROBLEMS BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE: Magnesium deficiency - yellowing between leaf veins. Phosphorus deficiency - curled leaves, yellow leave tips( nutrient deficiency overall) slow growth. Calcium deficiency - small rusted dots on the middle aged leaves. Ph was kinda high 7.1 Fix the problem: I've added 1.5ml/l Calmag 0.1.3 NPK 1ml/l Big buds which will give plant its nuteients. And water PH 5.5 to lower overall soil PH. I think she will bounce back in a few days! Day 34 and we are back on the track! She's been recovering and stretching very well, soil PH is 6.6 for now Day 35 end of frist week of flower, 10cm stretch in 7 days.

Green House Feeded one is enjoying life and growing big health buds. She received her last lollipoping. Advanced Nutrients one is still struggling. I am increasing the feeding per Advanced Nutrients supports suggestion. Let’s hope she recovers.
