Two days ago I removed alot of fanleaves so light can penetrate all the way down. I was looking for a specific shape with these plants and it seems like it worked. Now it's mostly the buds that have leaves and only a few fanleaves on the bottom of plant that didnt block any light. With my next watering I'm going to reduce the amount of nutrients because there is alot less plant matter to process those nutrients. With my last grow I ran in to some nutrient problems after the heavy defoliation. So less will be more this time😁 Day 17 of flower Follow my IG @Growinhome_

3x3 Clone Tent (Frosted Gelato, G-41, Frozay Pie, Black Cherry Gas) - Organishield foliar IPM and Soil Program watering treatments. Top dressed using BuildAFlower, worm castings, and FF Fruit and Flower top dressing. Week 3 defoliation in flower. Adjusted scrog netting upwards 2-3" for continued plant structure support heading into week 3 flower. Combination of cold weather, low ph, and insufficient levels of mag/cal micronutrients. Gave clones a feeding of FF Beastie Bloomz with Cal/Mag to help with macro/micro nutrients. End of week update - more bud development stacking nicely with leaves beginning to turn a variety of colors mostly reds and purples. Beautiful. 2x4 Tent (Humboldt Seed Blueberry Cupcake/TH Seeds French Macaron) - Organishield foliar IPM and Soil Program watering treatments. Applied new 2x4 AC Infinity netting for scrog plant structure support. BBCC began showing signs of rust on older lower leaves. Combination of cold weather, low ph, and insufficient levels of mag/cal micronutrients. Adjusted ph and feed FF Beastie Bloomz with Cal/Mag. End of week update - BBCC recovering nicely after treatment and nutrient feeding. Continue to take advantage of flower stretch by fanning out growth filling in empty areas of the scrog netting. 2x2 Tent (Afgooey Autos) - first application of Organishield foliar IPM and Soil Program watering treatments. Need 2-3 more days before transplant into final three gallon grow bags. Cuttings are in day 12 using peat pellets. No visible sign of rooting yet. 2x2 UPDATE: Transplanted three Afgooey Autos into 3 gallon fabric bags with FF Happy Frog, Light Warrior, and Natures Living Soil for autos and Mykos for roots. Two days later, the plants are thriving. Day 13 and cuttings beginning to show first signs of root development in peat pellets. Continue to mist and monitor for next two days before transplanting into dixie cups. End of week update - WE HAVE ROOTS. Continued vibrant growth of transplanted autos. Because of space restrictions and volume of combined grows, I will top autos in the next few days. Not normally recommended, but I have topped autos previously and if done early enough the females should recover fully prior to flowering.

Alien vs Triangle is looking great, I think she's fully recovered from all of the HST abuse I put her through. She has some interesting Bonsai-esque bends. Bud sites are getting frosty too!👍 She's back-left in the group pics.

Start of a new week with plenty growth, she’s flying every day. Added pk half ml on top of 2ml feed every 4 days she will probably get 3 more doses of pk at 1ml providing she reacts to the small dose well The lower leaves that where slowly turning yellow shot to yellow almost overnight after giving her half a ml of pk. Buds are swelling up with rapid growth so I’m hoping she’s focusing more on flower as I have just gave her another dose 3 days later...

June 3: growing fast now. Still almost 3 weeks until the solstice so we’re in good shape timing wise. June 5: “we got ‘er goin’ now.” Nice fast growth happening. June 6: now past fifth node and will top first thing tomorrow morning. June 7: topped for manifolding (or mainlining), and watered with a simple compost tea (mature compost, water, molasses, vinegar for pH) left to steep overnight. Apologies for the audio quality on the video.

After 3 failed germinations from growerschoiceseed.com I decided to order from ILGM.com. 2nd time around decided to germinate just 1 seed and it worked out well. Started soaking seed in ph adjusted water 6.5 for 48 hours. Seed showed small cracking so I placed the seed in damp paper towel. Let that sit for another 48 hours then placed in rock wool that I had soaking in ph 6 water for 24 hours. Placed Rockwell in DWC and turned both lights on at 12". She sprouted after 2 days. No nutrient yet.

Day 15 - Starting week 3 and all is good and seems to be on track. Will up the water intake just a tad and will start giving her a light feeding of Trchnaflora nutrients this week. Gave her a small amount of plain pH’d water today and a foliar spray. Day 16 - She’s still coming along nicely and gave her her first feeding of nutes today. Only went about a quarter the suggested dosage and only about a cup and a half watered around the base. I’ll keep an eye on her to make sure she takes everything in ok. Day 17 - Had to give her a bit more water today, the soil was already dry according to the soil meter. She took well to it yesterday so she’s definitely not overwatered so should be good today. Day 18 - Nothing new today, just some updated pictures and checked to see how much height she gain and very minimal right now, about 1/8 of an inch bit looking nice and heathy. Her “lower” growth is starting to grow a bit but still seems a bit early to start some LST, will probably wait until next week or so. Day 20 - Almost the end of week 3 and she’s doing great. Gave her about 200ML of plain pH’d water today and I’ve notice she always droops a bit after giving her some but picks right up after a couple hours but will still keep an eye on her to make sure it wasn’t too much. Other than that, she still somewhat short but her lower growth is coming up pretty good so want to start some LST soon. Day 21 - The end of week 3 and decided to start LST. She’s starting to branch out nicely so wanted to get as much light to the other branches as I possibly could. She’s good on water for a few days but did give her a light mist.

week intel: its time to harvest some of plants the ones that is mature enough. indica dominant plants will done first always so we should harvest them first because my base nutrients and one of boosters was salt based, i'll do flushing this week to get some relieve to plants in the last days stresses : flushing Drought stress via watering only one time with flushing this week feeding: day 1 : i flushed them with Advanced Nutrients Flawless finish and adjusted ph day 3 : no more feeding from now on day 5 : no more feeding from now on guide of the week : i harvest in 2 parts : first i harvest top of the branches and will let the lower buds to ripe another week then ill harvest the second wave. indica dominant plants will get done 1 or 2 weeks sooner than sativa dominant plants that will often takes more than 8 weeks so be aware to harvest them sooner. my dry and cure style is this: 3 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 3 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. im happy as hell with this harvest :D.

Hey, cannabis enthusiasts and connoisseurs! 🌿🔥 The journey with our Runtz F1 has been nothing short of legendary, and now we’re at the stage that every grower eagerly awaits—the trim and smoke report. This Runtz F1 has delivered beyond expectations, and I can’t wait to share the details with you. Let’s dive in! The Trim Process 🌾✂️ The trimming process was an experience in itself, filled with care and attention to detail. Here’s how it all went down: • Breaking Down the Branches 🌿: • First, we carefully broke down the plant into manageable branches, making sure to preserve the integrity of each bud. The structure of the Runtz F1 made this easy, with its dense, compact colas ready for precision trimming. • Trim Bin Magic ✂️: • Using a Trim Bin, we meticulously trimmed away the sugar leaves, leaving behind only the most beautiful, resin-coated buds. The Trim Bin isn’t just a tool; it’s a game-changer, allowing us to catch every last bit of precious kief that falls during the process. This extra kief is like a bonus for those special moments when you want to add a little something extra to your smoke. • Preserving Terpenes with Grove Bags 🛍️: • Once trimmed, the buds were placed into Grove Bags for curing. These bags are revolutionary in the cannabis world, designed to lock in terpenes and keep your buds fresh for the long haul. Unlike traditional jars, Grove Bags use a special TerpLoc technology that creates a perfect microclimate within the bag, balancing out oxygen and moisture levels. This means your buds cure evenly without the need for burping, preserving that incredible citrus terpene profile we’ve come to love from the Runtz F1. The Legendary Smoke 🌬️🔥 Now, let’s talk about the smoke—because this is where the Runtz F1 truly shines. • Flavor Explosion 🍊🍋: • The moment you take your first inhale, you’re hit with a symphony of citrus flavors. It’s like walking through a citrus grove with the sun shining down—notes of oranges, tangerines, and lemons come through strong, each one distinct yet harmoniously blended. But the magic doesn’t stop there; an underlying hint of vanilla sneaks in on the exhale, rounding out the flavor with a creamy, smooth finish. It’s an experience that dances on your palate, leaving you craving more. • Aroma 🌿🌸: • The smell is just as captivating as the flavor. As soon as you open the Grove Bag, the room fills with that zesty citrus aroma, complemented by a subtle sweetness from the vanilla undertone. It’s the kind of smell that makes you pause and appreciate the craft that went into growing this plant. • The Effects 🌟: • The effects of the Runtz F1 are as balanced as its flavor profile. Expect an initial wave of uplifting energy—perfect for daytime use or when you need a creative boost. As the high settles in, it mellows into a relaxed, yet focused state. It’s the best of both worlds: energizing without being overwhelming, and calming without knocking you out. This makes it an ideal strain for those who want to stay productive while still enjoying a potent, flavorful smoke. Final Thoughts and Invitation 🎥✨ The Runtz F1 has proven itself to be a true connoisseur’s strain—a perfect blend of flavor, aroma, and effects that’s both complex and satisfying. This was a journey that showcased the importance of patience, precision, and care, from germination all the way to the final cure. If you want to dive deeper into the entire process, from the first week of veg to the final trim, I’ve documented it all on my YouTube channel. Join me there for a closer look at how this incredible strain came to life, and learn more about the tips and techniques I used to bring out the best in these plants. Thank you to everyone who’s been part of this journey, from the community to the amazing brands like Gro Diaries, TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Kannabia, and more. Your support and tools have been invaluable. Remember, the magic is in the details—so never stop learning, growing, and enjoying the fruits of your labor.

End of week 4 and I have a bit more to report this week. On day 22 I topped this girl and she was a little slow to react, turns out my thermometer was in a bad spot and the girls were getting hammered by the heater 🤦‍♂️ lesson learned. Since re-positioning the thermometer they have bounced back and happy as Larry again, thank goodness. On day 27 i had brewed up my first compost tea and fed them a bit more than usual. The tea had a cup of Herbi's brew starter, a cup of work castings and a cup of organic compost. They loved it. I used the remains as a top dress afterwards. Today, on day 28, I defoliated and started LST, she's praying to the lights right now and I'm stoked! Hope you've all had a good week and thanks for checking in 🙏

Welcome back to my humidity hell. I just can't set the humidity down to where I want it. I did some more defoliation this week. Perhaps that will help the humidity a bit. These girls grew a bit bigger than I expected, and this may be contributing to my high humidity numbers. Other that that, these girls are stacking up nicely! They continue to have no problems and look healthy!

Casey's Rollex OG is growing good. She is transitioning more into flowering and should be toward the end part of her stretch. She was lollipopped today and a selective defoliation done across the canopy. She has been eating a lot and is looking good. Thank you Spider Farmer and DutchFem Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Day 65, 17th of November 2020: Welcome back at the beggining of the 3rd week of flowering. They seem to be stopped streching and now concentrating on buds. All of them are gorgeous..... The 2 Zamnesia genetics Gelato and Kalini Asia are pretty and buds are forming nicely. Kalini Asia might strech a bit more but not long. The Sweet Seed ones are really nice and I am so happy because Red Hot Cookies is already getting red.... pistils and around the leaves.. I hope the same happens to the Red Mandarine and Tropicanna Poison also. They are so gorgeous. They calmed down I don't expect more strech. Fertilization still the same every 2nd day with the ratio and mix above. Some lollipopping (Defoliation) is also done. I removed all the LST the plant remains in the same shape from now. The lamp is on 11.30 min and off 12.30 min. Last week was 15 min longer light cycle.... So every week 15 min shorter light cycle until the 5th week. So far -30 min. It switches on at 6 am and off at 17.30 pm.
