I start by saying that the genetics of this fantastic and super plant, the only exemplary because I was given after ordering, the first time I cultivated this variety .. I never had any problem from germination at the end of harvest, made grow for 6 weeks approximately with light hours 18/6, then kept in bloom for 10 weeks ...... and from about 10 days to dry with temperatures between 19/20 degrees, and humidity rate to 50% between today and tomorrow I'll make a nice manicure.

Grovebag time 💪

Welcome to week 5 of my Runtz gum diary by Original sensible seeds. Switching to 12/12 today, cant wait to see the first signs of flowering...

Looking stupid fire. Clones I took never rooted😭🤦‍♂️🏽 Gonna have to re veg if I wanna keep

:)

Topped lil missy, leaves turning a bit yellow, we'll see how that works out. Didn't change anything in her feeding schedule so far. I'll try getting her in better shape 🤞🤞🤞

Quick and easy plant to grow, but I made a few noob mistakes. If I grow it again, I won't be feeding with a lot of nutrients. This is my first auto and second plant ever (first one from seed), so I'm happy with the outcome. Being that small, it's the perfect strain to grow anywhere.

Aug 3: still going strong starting the third week of flowering. I’m putting her in the garage at 9 pm, doing the 730 nm far red light to put plant into dark mode 2 h faster, and then out of garage at 7 am. So 10+ 2 h is 12 h dark and 14 h daylight or a 26 h day. The far red light definitely works as a bloom booster and helps the plants finish faster when the sun is stronger. Did morning foliar spray of Extreme Blend and potassium silicate. Aug 4: always some defoliation to be done and I took out all the small stuff that was growing into the centre. If I had a longer season I could have left some of these small branches but I want the energy directed toward the prime bud sites. Also removing leaves makes it more stable in the wind. Yet another growing trade-off. Aug 5: she looks great coming out of the dark garage this morning. Lots of colas with lots of buds 👍👍 Aug 6: added UV lights from AC Infinity. This far north we run out of strong sunlight before it gets too cold in the fall. By adding UV lights, this will make Edmonton in September seem like California in July. Along with genetics, UV light is the main factor controlling trichome and THC production. Adding UV light for a couple of hours per day centred at peak sun (currently 1:39 pm) should help a lot this far north. At the other end of the light spectrum, I use Forever Green Indoor (FGI) 730 nm far red light. This is the third season using the far red light as a bloom booster and it definitely works. A few seconds at dusk is all it takes to put the plant into dark mode two hours faster, and is like getting a 26 h day. Bud ripen earlier and therefore under stronger sun. Both of these lights are low power LED used for a few hours (UV) or just a few seconds (far red). Gotta love science and technology when it allows us to figure this kind of out.

This strain is still new to me. It seems like it’s starting to flower! Golden leaf! It’s been super easy to grow so far!!

two of the ladies are on plain ph'd water for the next week or so and two are currently doing 48hours of darkness, then we'll get to chopping. 💚🤟

Thanks in advance 😉! -----IMAGES & VIDEOS----- From the next week i will start to record a timelapse video of the tent. Cheers!! -----WEEK SUMMARY----- I'm so sorry for the delay this last weeks, hard work times are very bad for my updates. This week is obvious how after remove them from the cheap chinese light, they're growing at high speeds. I'm going to top them the next week, I don't have very clear what I'm going to do, because I'm really without time this las weeks, and that is terrible for the plants, as this are very important weeks if I want to train them in a good way, and i can't, I'm praying to the goods of weed instead expending my time. Ok ok ok, let's talk about the plants. For me, it's impressive the speed at how are they growing this 3rd week, they are already at about 15 cm tall, and for the next the 20 cm rule it not going to be enough to measure them. All leaves are very green and I don't see any weird sympthoms, but if any better eye than mine sees something i would be very greatful with him/her if made a comment. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 16/09/19 DAY 15 - 1 l with all week nutrients (Organic Grow Half dosed) @ (0.9 EC | PH 6.1 | 25.7ºc) 22/09/18 DAY 21 - 1.5 l with all week nutrients -(Silica Power & Pro Active) @ (1.2 EC | PH 6.1 | 25.7ºc) *****ESPAÑOL***** Por favor, si te gusta esta semana dale un like, no te cuesta nada 👊. ¡Gracias por adelantado 😉! -----IMÁGENES & VÍDEOS----- A partir de la semana que viene empezaré a graba un timelapse del armario. -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Siento mucho el retraso sufrido esta semana y la que viene, los tiempo de mucho trabajo son muy perjudiciales para mis updates. Esta semana es obvio como después de haberlas quitado de la luz china malísima se han puesto a crecer a mucha más velocidad. La semana que viene las realizare el topping, no tengo muy claro qué ni cuanto puedo hacer esta vez, por que realmente tengo absorbido el 95% de mi tiempo estas últimas semanas y esto es malísimo para las plantas, ya que estas semanas son muy muy importantes para poder realizar un buen entrenamiento en las plantas y no me está siendo posible. Así que estoy rezando a los dioses de la hierba en vez de gastar el tiempo que no tengo para que todo vaya bien. Ok ok, hablemos de las plantas. Para mi realmente es impresionante la velocidad a la que están creciendo esta tercera semana, ya están a 15 cm de altura y la semana que viene la regla de 20 cm ya no va a ser suficiente para medirlas. A mis ojos todas las hojas se ven verdes y sin síntomas raros, estaría muy agradecido si algún ojo más experto que el mío ve algo y deja un comentario. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 16/09/19 DÍA 15 - 1 l Con todos los nutrientes semanales (Organic Grow mitad de la dosis) @ (0,9 EC | PH 6,1 | 25,7ºc) 22/09/18 DÍA 21 - 1,5 l Con todos los nutrientes semanales -(Silica Power y Pro Active) @ (1,2 EC | PH 6,1 | 25,7ºc)

👉Day43- buds getting fatter and fatter every day :) i can just watch nothing to do rly..:) 👉Day44-Did little deformation and changed 22h>21h lighting since i saw info abt this strain 20h is best they say..... Week or 2 and will change from 21h>20h sleping time so they can rest little bit loonger🤣🤣👍 👉Day45- spoted calcium deficiecy onley on the biggest plant od 3..or 4 leafes.... 😣😪 overall all is well :) 👉Day46-flowers start to smell rly rly nice!!! U can alredy smell that orange/citrus/sweet strong smell when u smell it closely💚🤗🤗🤗💚 👉Day47-2flowers had sings of heat strees(expected that!) so i change height of lap for 10cm,reorganize positions of flowers,so the lower buds are in the middle..... and change fann position, they also kinda stopped rising in to the high white&blue sky!! Height info:cca 85,cm 70cm,66cm,64cm,64cm and the farthest bud away from lamp is like 65cm 🤗👍 👉Day48-flowers flowering rly good :) little calcium deficiency..and did kinda big deformation .... nothing to do now anymore rly ......can just water them every 2days and wait :)🤗🤗 👉👉Have fun mates and be safe!!!😷🤣👍💚

Here we go in partnership with Zamnesia and Plagron so far good start ,dont have time to enter the competition so im thinking i will mainline this one

8. Woche Die beiden Ladys entwickeln sich gut würde ich sagen, der eine Pheno wird fjedenfall schneller fertig als der andere, bin gespannt auf die nächsten Wochen. Das Mainlining und Topping hat ja doch alles bisschen hinausgezögert 😊

Still stretchin

DAY 34 of flower🌼🌸

Turned off IR @ nights Red wigglers (Eisenia fetida) are highly beneficial. They are considered an ideal choice for "no-till" or container-based organic growing because they live in the upper layers of soil, feeding on organic mulch rather than the plant's root system. Red wigglers accelerate the breakdown of organic amendments and produce high-quality, nutrient-dense worm castings directly in the root zone. Clover is another exceptional component of an organic rhizosphere, offering a sustainable, self-sustaining alternative to synthetic nitrogen fertilizers produced via the energy-intensive Haber-Bosch process. By forming a symbiotic relationship with Rhizobia bacteria, clover converts atmospheric nitrogen N2 into ammonium NH4, providing a steady, slow-release nutrient source that enhances soil health and reduces environmental impacts. Red clover offers superior nitrogen fixation and biomass production compared to white or yellow clover, making it the premier choice for maximum soil vitality, particularly for improving soil structure and providing a high-volume nitrogen credit for subsequent crops. If it is fully functional and efficient soil, the rhizophagy cycle is far superior long-term than any synthetic delivery when it comes to preventing deficiencies, not because it's "better," per se. The medium will require a very high CEC to make it to harvest without re-fertilization. The rhizosphere acts as a dynamic, interactive exchange where plants and soil microbes trade resources based on immediate needs. When a plant lacks a specific nutrient, it changes its physiology and releases specialized chemical cocktails—root exudates—into the surrounding soil. These exudates, which include sugars, amino acids, and organic acids, serve as a "shopping list" to attract specific microorganisms, which in turn return higher levels of desired nutrients. There is nothing in comparison to synthetic delivery, which causes plants to stop producing exudates, effectively "starving" the beneficial soil life, over time turning the soil barren and void of microbial life. Responsible use, applying the right amount at the right time, can minimize these negative effects. Relying solely on synthetic fertilizers without replenishing organic matter is what typically leads to exhausted soil. The use of synthetic fertilizers can utilize the Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) of the soil, but without a robust rhizosphere and active microorganisms, the efficiency of this process is significantly reduced. This makes synthetic growing more difficult to prevent deficiencies overall compared to an efficient organic living soil with a robust rhizophagy cycle, as there is no "one size, fits all" when it comes to different nutrient profiles of strains/genetics, making it trickier to "guess" and prevent creeping deficiencies. CEC does not contribute towards EC. Add more CEC using biochar, problem solved. If you keep pH between 6.3 and 6.7, hydrogen is exudated to cycle the medium's CEC for its needs. Keeping the pH between 6.3 and 6.7 creates an environment where plants release H+ to displace positively charged nutrients (like Ca2+, Mg2+, K+ held on soil particles or within artificial media this cycle through nutrients via the medium's Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) Microorganisms generate a stable potential of approximately 0.5 V EC. The rhizosphere creates its own food, similarly to chelation, using 1000's of varying combinations to create its own food. Start to finish, just add water. Eventually, more materials will need to be added at the beginning of each new grow, but very attainable to go from seed to harvest without ever fertilizing, regenerative cultivation. ATP is king above all else when it comes to biomass accumulation. Cellular root respiration and cellular respiration are essentially the same biological process, the breakdown of glucose to create usable energy (ATP) in the presence of oxygen, just taking place in different parts of the plant. Synthetic (salt-based) grows have significantly lower levels of total rhizosphere respiration, often referred to as root-zone activity, compared to organic living soil grows. While the plant roots themselves may respire in both systems, the surrounding soil ecosystem in a living soil setup is vastly more active, teeming with bacteria, fungi, and beneficial microorganisms. 2 pools of ATP, it won't double in growth buuuut, but improving root respiration by ensuring high oxygen in the soil is crucial. Good aeration ensures roots can fully utilize glucose to generate the ATP necessary for nutrient uptake, leading to healthier and more productive plants, even if growth isn't exactly doubled. The ATP created using root respiration is dedicated to rootzone growth; the ATP created using regular cellular respiration in a synthetic system would have to dedicate a lot of ATP to the roots when there is little or no root respiration. It's true that there is less of an initial ATP cost in breakdown when nutrients are already in their final form (synthetic), but you lose a solid chunk of ATP when the entire plant is reliant on cellular respiration alone; a large portion of ATP is dedicated to root zones for "forced" (active) nutrient uptake. Making it overall less efficient, even if the initial cost of breakdown is higher. If that makes sense. Oxygen is of critical importance when growing in living soil compared to synthetic methods because it supports the metabolic needs of the microbial, fungal, and insect ecosystem, rather than just the root respiration required by the plant itself. While synthetic grows can survive in lower-oxygen environments with precise mineral feeding, living soil systems rely on aerobic microbes to decompose organic matter (microbial mineralization) to create plant-available nutrients, which is an oxygen-intensive process. While a specific fair percentage is difficult to guess, my experience points to a massive, compound difference between the two methods and the amount of oxygen required. All the ATP spared is used on more biomass, not only that, but the extra root respiration can achieve a much higher CO2 compensation point naturally than you could with synthetic and atmospheric CO2 alone. As a plant grows faster and increases in size, its demand for nutrients to support that growth increases, requiring a higher rate of nutrient uptake. As plants enter phases of rapid vegetative/floral growth, their metabolic demand for nutrients increases exponentially. Without a robust buffer zone—whether in the soil (cation exchange capacity) or in a hydroponic reservoir—deficiencies will occur rapidly because the instantaneous demand for specific nutrients can quickly exceed the rate of supply. A growing body of evidence suggests that organic living soil provides superior long-term soil health and environmental benefits compared to synthetic fertilizers, which are often criticized for promoting a cycle of dependency and degradation. While synthetic fertilizers offer short-term convenience and high yields, they often come at the expense of long-term soil health, sustainability, and increased corporate control over growers/ farmers. Organic living soil, while slower and requiring more care to establish, creates a sustainable, resilient, and, ultimately, more fertile environment. We don't grow; we facilitate energy conversions. Once all water is removed, approximately 95% to 97% of a plant’s dry matter consists of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen. These three elements form the structural backbone of all plants. Corporate interest sells you the other 3-5% NPK & all the rest in RATIOS! Why not throw the 3-5% in a pot, and focus your energy on the other 95-97%? Indigenous Amazonians created, or at least significantly enhanced, the fertile, dark soil known as Terra Preta de Índio (Portuguese for "Indian Black Earth") by incorporating biochar and other organic materials into the soil. This anthropogenic (human-made) soil technique, which dates back roughly 2,500 to 8,000 years, allowed ancient civilizations to flourish in regions with naturally poor, acidic, and nutrient-poor tropical soils.

I fiori diventano sempre più compatti e incominciano a sentirsi sempre di più i profumi delle cime Sono riuscito a stabilizzare la temperatura a 24.5 gradi con la lampada al 100% di intensità luminosa a 45cm dalle cime Questa settimana per pulire un po’ il substrato ho dato 2 irrigate a ph 6.4 e circa 100ppm

Good little week I had, plants have grown a bit since I last updated. #1 - 43cm #2 - 36cm #3 - 37cm #4 - 22cm #5 - 46cm #6 - 49cm The Liverworts have also grown a bit as well, happy with that little update. Some of the plants have been beginning to get fragrant. One of them smells exactly like the seeds branded label "Cake or Pie or Cola" but I won't tell you what one just yet, I was shocked and amazed, another is very gassy/fuley/diesely, no note of fruits whatsoever. The rest are al fruity but nothing screaming strawberry. I'm expecting them to mature much more as time goes on and when they enter the curing stage. Still looking like they want more nutrients, was in the upper limit of what I thought they would tolerate well. 1.4EC maybe I push for 1.6EC - 1.8EC Till next week

Eccoci qui… Tutto alla grande si stanno maturando le cime ora bisogna essere bravi e tutto andrà secondo il miglio verso. Ho dato i fertilizzanti e le piccole hanno risposto molto molto bene ❤️❤️❤️ Grazie a tutti per il supporto ❤️🔥🌲
