OK this was my 1st grow and I set everything up went through all my controls and away to go ... wrong after pre flower came I couldn't understand why I wasn't getting these ladies to flip.... So I went through everything with runoff feeds Everything you can think of except my timers on the lights and this low and behold was the problem!! where I was going to the tent at similar times everyday the light was on and the timers were set right on the clock except I didn't see the switch on the side that makes the timer work continuously or to how the clock is set....๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿ˜” Found this and away to go my ladies had some well needed sleep and away to go they flipped By now these had all bushed right out but were getting no tricomes I now had a hell of a load of feeds and kept up the way I was feeding Water Water Feed and all 4 plants in my tent were all heading for the finish line at the same time.... And now I've cut the Northern and the jack down and from my northern lights I had 200g dry weight I didn't do a wet weight it was too hard to do in the space I had (too many colas and massive nugs along with the stragglers that were lost in amongst it all ) She was really resilient and to have come through all those weeks of no rest and only light for 24hrs continuously I'm surprised that I've got this far Flavours and smells are great and the smoke isn't the strongest but when cure now I will see how this little lady comes on I'm happy for my 1st and have learned so much throughout this journey I will update with more but the next diary will be of the other lady in the tent and will give a more detailed explanation of the full journey but as far as crop goes she gave and gave and gave that little more !! Thanks all for following and I hope my next write up will be all the more detailed for u ๐Ÿ˜€ As she drys mire and more and I've got the exact weight down her figures are not really changing as I've dried her down as much as I want to ....even if this was something that I wanted to keep as a heavier product weather it was for keeping for myself which is what I will be doing rather than to try to get extra weight if I was doing this grow for resale, but this was never the case it was always a grow I've done to help lower my own smoking costs for my own gain and not resale... So again very happy as these final weights are getting revised there will be more to add to the weight with 1 more plant on the harvest but almost double if not more than doubling what I have already put on but I will change my numbers to 2 lots p .tent and an extremely challenging massive yield OMG ๐Ÿ˜ฒ she has yes given given and given more beyond more !!!!

So she started herming. Guess I'll have to change her name to Big Barry instead ๐Ÿ˜… Wish I could grow a testicle everytime I got frustrated, geez. Kids these days. Anyways, I've been really good about any light leaks, and the internal temps have been consistent, so I'm blaming the 'bagseed' genetics. As soon as I saw the pollen, I started misting the plant with regular RO water, and then went in and removed as many pollen sacks as I could find. But I seriously doubt that I was able to find them all, since they're so deeply hidden within the budsites, and will likely be finding more pollen over the coming weeks -___- My first grow, so it's disappointing but Im still proud of her. Might just spread any seeds I find in the buds, out in the yard and see how they do. I certainly won't be TLC-ing mystery genetics again, aside from the clones I took off her-- which are my first clones as well (with 100% success rate ๐Ÿ˜Ž). Ive never had a greenthumb so please ignore my horn-tooting lol

No nutes the last two weeks, only water, at the moment they're looking good so far. we're coming to an end, it was a small, experimental & nice Wintergrow.

I am so in love with watching them grow. PH 6.5 seems to be the sweet spot... I couldn't be more excited for the weeks ahead. I haven"t scene anything other then some sagging cus they were thirsty.. But that is a good thing. I want to fully train the roots so they have a nice spread in their pot. I learned that it is ALL ABOUT THE ROOTS !!! Healthy Roots are a Beautiful and Healthy Plant..

Was another easy week - lots of healthy growth. Simply watered when dry, did some daily LST and leaf tucking. The green crack is definitely the fastest growing out of all the plants, and the one runt LSD25 is a bit smaller but still chugging along.

Still maintaining, no defoliation up to this point. There are still some deformed fingers on leaves from the stress but they are doing well!

LST has done wonders for her, she has completely transformed from where she was a month ago. She is bushing out really well and I can't wait for her to finish stretching, and for her buds to start forming. Make sure to follow along to continue to grow with me !

๐ŸŒฟ GrowDiaries Harvest Review Runtz by Zamnesia Seeds ๐ŸŒฟ 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! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ 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! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ”ฅ DIARY COMPLETE

5/14: A ended up falling over so I decided to move the dirt around and see what I could see with respect to its root structure. It had one very long, extremely thin dried out root that extended about 2-3 inches and ended in a little tangled up taproot. There was a little worm/nematode/larvae something crawling around in it. I attached video. I'm assuming I need to dump all my water and sterilize, re-ph, etc. Everything is already watered for tonight (should have pulled A first in hindsight) so too late to do anything about the other 2 plants, though they do look pretty healthy still. --------------------- 5/13: Transplanted E into her pot this morning. Same soil mix (3 parts FFOF to 1 part perlite). Seedling C is crushing it, with second set of leaves already forming. E is probably going to go quiet for a day or 2 while it recovers from transplanting. Seedling A looks like it might be overwatered? It feels pretty frail compared to the other 2 plants and the downward curl of the leaves I think suggest too much H20. Will be letting them dry out a bit today. Also, turned up the lamp to 600W and moved it to about 24 inches from the tops. Temperatures are consistently 74-77F and RH holding right around 50%. Still no nutrients. I plan to add them around week 3, unless I see signs they need it sooner. -------------- Out of 5 seeds we started, A, C, and E remain. E a few days behind A and C but growing faster. Planted A and C in FFOF/Perlite 3/1 about 4 gallons total in a 5 gallon bucket. Will do the same for E in a couple days. Moved the light up a bit to account for the buckets. Water ph'd to just about 6.0. Light still on 250W but will be moving up to 400W when they wake up later today. Will go to 600W once all are in pots and at a relatively uniform height. Currently just trying to keep the RH close to 70 and the air temp less than 80. No nutrients for 3-4 weeks unless they look hungry, since FFOF has quite a bit in it to begin with. If not for me killing seed B and seed D never germinating, I'd say we're off to an OK start. The 3 that are growing, seem to be growing extremely well. I put together my own ScrOG that I will install once the light is out of the way, and plan to top these a few times each and LST. I was hoping to have 4 plants to fill the space but we will do our best with 3.

Did a medium stress training on 10/15 last few days of week 5 lowering main cola from 17โ€ to 8โ€. Also dropped mid colas to 8โ€ leveling canopy. 10/17 made some further adjustments as tops and fans flipped upright. Last adjustment 10/18 removed a handful of fans to open all bud sites. Noticing a bit of yellowing watered with 700 tds dr earth bloom. runoff at 6.5 ph down to 1100 tds from last measure of 1400+. 10/18 Added another dose of dr bloom runoff moved to 1240 tds 6.5 ph. Painting Happy trees hopefully. ๐Ÿ™‚ 10/19 pm let run off settle. tested at 1350 tds 6.82 ph 10/24 finished off the week looking good. nute deficiency in check.

11/3/19 - These bitches are sooo strong! Everything is going very good. Feeding is changing this week. I am so excited to see what they do! The stretch has slowed. I will lower the lights next week. Added a new light for the one I moved to the corner. We will see on how it affects the evromntals. 11/4/19 - Gave a feeding tonight 4 cups per plant. 2 cups are Coco Bloom A&B with Silica Blast. The other two cups are terp, candy, cal, big, sens. This combo of nutes and water volume every two days seams to be doing very good. I premix my nutes in gallon water bottles. I love the Crystal Geyser bottles. They only $1 and have nice handles. I refill each bottle with a Zero Water filter pitcher. That keeps the TDS down low. 11/5/19 - WOW, I just love after a good feeding. The girls just JUMP right up. When I took the environment pic, the temp was a little high while the RH was a little low. It has now laid down to 75/55 with the lights on. 11/6/19 - They are drinking a bunch. Gave them 1 cup each of the solutions to keep them good till Friday.

After germinating on a wet paper towel inside a hanging plastic baggie for 48 hours, all 6 seeds have opened up. The 3 ZHEETOS (=ZKITTLES X CHEESE) and the 3 BADAZZ-CHEESE (=BADAZZ-KUSH X CHEESE) seeds, which I received directly from Milo from BIG BUDDHA SEEDS have a 100% germination result, I love it. The seeds are then carefully (with gloves on and a tweezer) transplanted into small pots (0,25 liter) filled with PLAGRON Grow-Mix. You can see how its done in the video and pics above. I fill the pot with soil and water it a little bit. Then I make a small hole with a finger in the center of the soil. I take the seed off the wet paper towel with a tweezer and put it onto the side-wall of the small hole. I position it right at the edge with the white tap-root pointing down and the seed-shell laying on the edge of the hole. Then i push the soil from the other side-wall towards the seed, so it is enclosed with soil from all sides and the top of the seed shell still peaks out of the soil. This way the seedling does not have to fight its way to the surface, but can grow out right away. Within 24 hours I can see the small seedlings rise and push out of the soil. Some with the seed-shells still on them other without the seed-shell, depending if they were able to shed them in the soil already. The first ones to rise are ZHEETOS #1 and #2 together with BADAZZ-CHEESE #1 and #2, both #3-plants are one day later out of the soil. During week 1 I only gave them little water (0,1 liter per plant every 2nd day) and on day 7 I add BIONOVA ROOTS to the water (0,5 ml/l) to enhance the growth of the roots of the seedlings. After a few days all 6 seedlings have surfaced and then shed their seed shells and unfolded their Cotyledons (=first round leaf). They grow quick and healthy in the first week inside my GrowforLife-Coset and start to develop the first sets of real leaves. This closet is THE MOST BEAUTIFUL and MOST SILENT stealth-grow-cabinet EVER! (check them out: www.growforlife.com ) I loved my first round in it and cant wait for this one. The plants LOVE the spectrum and light-intensity of the two 50 watts SANlight-LED modules built into the closet. The 100 watts of light are plenty for the small grow-surface (45x45cm) of the closet. This round I will try the whole line of BIONOVA nutrients from the Netherlands, since I have only heard good things about them.
