May 10th Just patiently waiting Switched nutrients back to straight Dense Buds @ 1200 PPM May 12th Switched nutrients back to what is posted on in the diary. The two days of straight Dense Buds really tightened up the Buds. I t is getting very close to flushing 👍😎 Most Buds look ready but there are a couple spots were they can go longer I see that my humidity has climbed up to 50% so I will be running the dehumidifier for the rest of the grow, aiming at 40% RH May 13th Switched the nutrients to start flushing today. I used 15 litres of water and 40m/l of Florakleen = 0.38 m/l PPM > 100 and PH of 6.1

Week 9: Flower - The First Harvest & Final Countdown! ✂️🌿 THE BIG CHOP IS DONE! Gorilla Z #1 has been harvested, and we're officially in the drying phase. Meanwhile, the remaining ladies are marching toward their own finish lines. Gorilla Z #1 - HARVESTED! 🎉 She's down! After weeks of growth, recovery from overwatering, and pushing through to the end, this girl finally got the chop. Trichome Check: Mostly cloudy/milky (peak THC production ✓) A few amber trichomes starting to show Minimal clear trichomes Harvest Timing: Honestly? I was in a rush—ran out of flower to smoke! 😅 But the trichomes were in a good window, so it worked out. Sometimes necessity makes the decision for you. Could've waited for more amber for a heavier effect, but she was ready enough. What's Next: Drying phase begins now Aiming for slow dry (60°F, 60% humidity if possible) Then comes the cure—patience will be tested again! The Relief: Finally got some homegrown coming down the pipeline. The timing couldn't be better! Gorilla Z #2 - End of Month Finish She's still chugging along in mid-to-late flower. Based on her current progression, she should be ready by the end of the month. Current Status: Buds filling out nicely Still getting full-strength bloom nutrients Recovery from overwatering is complete—she's back to full health Feeding Schedule: Full strength General Hydroponics Bloom Trio Cal-Mag Liquid Kool Bloom She'll stay on this program for another week or two, then transition to water-only flush before harvest. Heisenberg - Two Weeks Out & Starting the Flush! 💧 She's in the final stretch! About 2 weeks away from harvest, which means it's time to transition to the flush. The Flush Begins TODAY: Water only from here on out No more nutrients Flushing helps the plant use up stored nutrients in the leaves and buds Results in smoother smoke and cleaner taste Why flush? Removes excess salts and nutrients from the medium Forces plant to metabolize stored nutrients Improves final product quality (smoothness, taste, ash color) The leaves will fade and yellow—this is GOOD and expected during flush Current Status: Buds are dense and frosty Loving the Spider Farmer tent environment Healthy and vigorous despite approaching finish Key Observations & Real Talk Harvest #1 in the books! There's something incredibly satisfying about chopping your first plant of the cycle. All the work, the stress, the learning—it all comes together in that moment with scissors in hand. The staggered timeline is actually perfect: Gorilla Z #1: Harvested (drying now) Heisenberg: 2 weeks out (flush started) Gorilla Z #2: End of month (~3 weeks out) This spread means I won't be overwhelmed with trimming and drying all at once. Plus, continuous harvests = continuous supply! Running out of smoke as motivation: Look, we've all been there. Sometimes the best harvest window is "I'm out and I need flower NOW." 😂 The trichomes were good enough, and that's what matters. The Home Stretch Strategy For Heisenberg (flush phase): Plain water only, pH'd to 6.5 Monitor trichomes closely Watch for fade (yellowing leaves = plant eating itself = good!) Start thinking about chop day in 10-14 days For Gorilla Z #2: Continue full bloom nutrients for 1-2 more weeks Then begin her flush Harvest late February For Gorilla Z #1 (drying): Hang dry in dark, controlled environment Check daily—don't rush it! Stems should snap, not bend, when ready for cure Then into jars for the cure (the hardest wait of all) Next Week's Plan Monitor Gorilla Z #1 drying progress (resist the urge to sample too early!) Continue water-only flush on Heisenberg Keep feeding Gorilla Z #2 full strength Daily trichome checks on Heisenberg as harvest approaches Prep trimming station and cure jars for upcoming harvests Start planning the NEXT grow! 🌱 We're in the final stretch! One down, two to go. The finish line is in sight, and the reward is almost here. 🏁🔥 First harvest complete. Drying tent smells AMAZING. The wait for cure is going to be brutal but worth it! 💚✂️

Day 74 and there getting chopped today! I thought the harvest was going to be broken into two separate weeks considering the times on the Choco was listed about 7-10 days sooner then the DD (wich was listed at 70 days for flowering) However looking at the tricombs on the Chocolate Marshmallow most pheno didnt start getting amber untill the DDs did as well! A couple DD pheno could have maybe gone a couple more days but we will see! Going for reveg on all the pheno, since i didnt get to take any clones. We will see how it goes!

Week 2 ! I've Been watering 0,5L/Plant every 48 Hours. I'm thinking of doubling the nutrient solution next week. The Tri-Leafe ''Mutant'' is looking incredibly sexy and I'm starting to see signs of female gender on most plants. On the other hand my Autoflowers ( last 7 on the video ) seem to be developing light green dots and some leaves started to swirl a tiny bit. Im researching what deficiency or toxicity it might be but im still not sure. Maybe just genetics. Also running the Led on 380W since 7 days.

Plant filling tent nicely 👌 ,put a pot of sugar water attract flys sprayed leaves with water mixed alg a mic 1mg seems to left some blotching no more leaves being eaten.

10.04.2026 The BuKu is doing fine. She is growing well and getting taller and taller every day. Had to put her in flowering mode because of my SuperLemonHazexPink Candy which is growing explosive. I am very sure the plant was in a beginning Ph induced calmag-issue stage. Had no symptoms yet but i guess one or two weeks later...So I decided to react. I changed my water to rainwater and added Athena CaMg, about 1ml per liter, and I gave her a foliage feeding with about 1 ml CaMg on 4 liters of water once. I turned the ventilation down to raise the temperature and room humidity. And I lowered the lights energy on some days. But now the lights are running in full mode again Gave her Hesi Bio Bloom 2ml/l twice and added some Hesi PK 13/14 for the kick. My rainwater has an EC of 0, I add CaMg to an Ec of 0.3 . Then I add PK 13/14 to reach an EC of 0.9 Bend her some times and constantly defoliated her huge leaves. No spidermite problems yet and I think the fungus gnarfs are getting fewer. everything good so far. Added the far red in my lamp today.

I mean, overall this was an extremely painless grow. The test of whether we should or shouldn't top autos is still TBD imo. Our topped candidate produced denser, frostier buds, but weighed slightly less, at 14 grams of bud total. And our lst plant produced 18 grams of bud, not as frosty, and almost as dense as our topped girl. I'll be topping autoflowers from here on out only under the circumstance I have 4+ to grow at the same time. Seems like it could be used to speed up the autoflower grow cycle if done properly, like with right. Since I'm doing a perpetual cycle, it's still a viable option for me in the long run. A few tips I have for anyone growing this strain in organics: Start feeding bloom nutes a little bit prior to flower transition - this makes the transition more seemless. From weeks 1-3 flower, I slowly dropped the grow dosage until I cut off grow nutes week 3 flower. Starting the flush around week 6 flower seemed to really bring out this plant's potential. But I think you could get away with starting the flush around week 5. I hope this helps anyone trying this strain out. It's a good one, I hope to see more journals of it, eventually. Cheers everyone! Time for me to take a well-deserved puff. :) ☁️ 🌼

Start of week 4, the blueberry is using up nutes quicker then the other strain's, but she rebounded quickly after being fed. The OG Kush is very compact and tight node spacing, lots of bud sites.

She still hasn’t settled in nicely from her top dressed amendments. Shes growing but not flourishing like I’d like . Her leaves are all different funky shades . Her pots’ dried out a ways and her top soil is bone dry but I’m going to wait a couple/few more days before I offer her more water Update: shes showing deficiencies, I haven’t been in the grow room for over a week and a half so I could begin to say what’s going on . I’ll have a look at the past data to try and gauge what may be the issue . I don’t fee she has began accessing her top dressed nutrients I could be wrong and perhaps she has an appetite larger than that 1gallon feeding schedule & wants more food . I’m working non-stop so when I get a second to myself I am not checking things out . I’ve been enjoying being on cruise control check back in later in the week .

Hello, green warriors and cannabis enthusiasts! 🌱🔥 We’re now in the 4th week of flowering in our epic Runtz Battle, and things are getting intense! This week was a major milestone as we performed a deep, mass defoliation to set the stage for the final push toward harvest. Let’s dive into the details and explore the impact of this crucial step. Week 4 Flowering Progress 🌿🌟 Our Runtz plants are thriving as they enter the second half of the flowering phase. Here’s what’s been happening: • Bud Development 🌸: • The buds are swelling beautifully, with trichome production ramping up across all plants. The flowers are becoming increasingly dense and aromatic, promising a rich and flavorful harvest. The F1 strain continues to stand out with its compact, resin-packed buds that are now truly taking shape. • Environmental Consistency 🌡️: • We’ve kept the environment stable with a room temperature of 30.3°C, water temperature at 18°C, and humidity at 51%. These conditions are ideal for promoting healthy flowering and preventing any issues as the buds continue to bulk up. The Power of Defoliation 🌿✂️ This week, we carried out a deep, mass defoliation—an essential practice for optimizing bud production. Let’s break down what defoliation is and why it’s so important at this stage: • What is Defoliation? 🌱✂️: • Defoliation involves selectively removing a significant amount of fan leaves from the plants. This process is particularly beneficial during the flowering stage as it allows better light penetration and air circulation to the lower bud sites. • Why Defoliation Matters 🌟: • Light Penetration: By removing excess foliage, we’re ensuring that light can reach deeper into the canopy. This light exposure helps to stimulate growth in the lower buds, leading to a more uniform and higher-quality yield across the entire plant. • Air Circulation: Better airflow reduces the risk of mold and mildew, especially as the buds become denser and more susceptible to moisture-related issues. • Energy Focus: Removing large fan leaves redirects the plant’s energy from maintaining foliage to developing the buds. This means the plants can put more effort into producing larger, more resinous flowers. • How the Runtz Plants Responded 🌸: • The Runtz strains handled the defoliation like champions! They’ve already begun responding positively, with the remaining leaves and buds soaking up the extra light and air. We’re expecting to see even more vigorous bud development in the coming weeks as a result of this defoliation. Nutrient and Care Strategy 🌱💧 Our nutrient and care approach continues to support the plants as they push through this critical flowering stage: • Watering and Nutrients 💧: • With the Autopots still running smoothly, we’re maintaining the Regulator and CaMg Boost in the reservoir. The rich soil, bolstered by organic inputs, is providing all the necessary nutrients to sustain healthy growth and flower production. • The defoliation has also allowed us to closely inspect the plants, ensuring they’re free from pests and diseases and making any necessary adjustments to the care routine. • Lighting and Environmental Control 🌡️: • The Lumatek Zeus 465 Compact Pro continues to deliver powerful, even light, now reaching even more of the plants thanks to the defoliation. • The TrolMaster Hydro-X controller is keeping everything dialed in, maintaining the perfect environment for the Runtz strains to thrive. The Zamnesia Gear Shines 🌟📸 We captured some amazing photos this week, showcasing the defoliation process and our beautiful Runtz plants. Shoutout to the incredible gear from Zamnesia that makes this journey even more enjoyable. Their products not only perform exceptionally well but also look fantastic in action! 🌿📸 Looking Ahead 🌟🌿 As we move into the latter stages of flowering, we’re expecting some serious bud development. The defoliation has set the stage for the Runtz strains to focus all their energy on creating dense, resinous flowers. The next few weeks are going to be critical as we fine-tune the environment and prepare for the final push towards harvest. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue this thrilling journey. The finish line is in sight, and the anticipation is building! 🌟💚 #RuntzBattle #Week4Flower #CannabisCommunity #DefoliationDay #BudDevelopment #GreenMagic #ZamnesiaGear #LumatekZeus #TrolMasterHydroX #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 💚

I did some defoliation and pruning of lower branches at the start of the week and this plant hasn't recovered as much foliage as the CBD Blue Shark, even though this one was bigger until recently. I think the plants have a preference for being on the left, right underneath the filament part of the light bulb. I also still need to finish the right wall and put white mylar on it. Maybe I will switch the plants for a bit.

Day 85 since seed touched soil. Trim jail !!! 2.40 cm of hanging buds !!! Happy Growing !!!

Another week passes and she is looking good... I have absolutely no idea what strain she is but she does smell good... Hopefully, it's not a cbd plant lol .. happy growing and thank you all for stopping by.. God bless and happy growing ✌️

I am currently looking for the best chronic weed. No idea

Day57 hot summer day 😎👍🙏 Day58 cloudy and normal temp 😳😵 Day59 cloudy and cold temp 😵😵😕 Day60 the sun came back but late 😩😵 Day61 sun and warm weather 😁🙏👍

So far so good, the ladies have streched and spread out rapidly due to high rains high heat and high winds. Lets see how the next two months

At the beginning of the week I thought it would be a harvest week, but it drives me crazy: as it goes on to develop so greatly that I am not sure it will be done in more couple of weeks!...

19/01/21. segundo dia de segunda semana de floracion 22/01/21. hoy se aplico riego con nutrientes organico de Rootz.mx se aplico magnaflor y forzasilicia MagnaFlor. Estimula la floración. 100% orgánico. Contiene biocatalizadores que serán rápidamente absorbidos por las raíces de tus plantas. El comienzo de la floración será explosivo. ya sobrepasa el metro 24/01/21 cierre de semana ,

After transplanting them into larger fabric pots (2x 7.5L), they were sad for 2-3 days, but this will improve next week. Until this week, I hadn't used a pH meter or organic nutrients, just tap water every 1-2 days."
