Stretch slowing down, secured the existing net for some support and to help with LST. Stretch has slowed down for sure. budlets beginning to form. Did a heavy top dress of Gaia Green, 13 TBSP Power Bloom to 7 TBSP All Purpose, mixed with a few scoops of compost. When I pulled back the mulch to top dress I snapped a few pics and videos of the soil, wow, SO much life it's incredible, one giant heap of life. I find mixing top dress with compost lets gives the roots something to adhere to, and nothing like increasing that root zone! Kept up with some light defoliation and LST with some bud clips and netting, not much else to do but wait! All the excess trim from defoliation and nearly everything you see in the background will get mulched up and added in the fall for next years crop. Circle of life yo! Had some very very minor Powdery Mildew on some fan leaves after we have some 95% humidity roll through, I had company so skipped a spraying of Lactobacillus, and it showed. If you haven't tried it, it's EASY to make and it works wonders, plants love it as a foliar spray or a root soak, I use molasses to keep it stable, so it's double good for flowering time. This will HAVE to get harvested end of September regardless, that gives me 7 weeks from now, so here's hoping for that FastBuds "Fast Flower" action.

Hello colleagues! I have reached the end of the cycle, everything is going well. I like the obvious difference in the plant phenotypes, it is interesting to fully reveal each strain. Next week - watering with clean water, and we will be approaching the harvest. Thank you for stopping by, and be healthy! 🙏 To be continued... 😶

I'm anxiously waiting for it to dry, good colors and smell

Given them a big juicy feed, they're only needed watering once or twice every 7 days. Waiting for that stretch, structures look ok but I'll be doing a final lollipop in 2-3 weeks to focus on the above the net buds only. 17.6 And the stretch begins, I see the subtle but clear first signs of slightly less dark green in the growth tips appear. They've grown at least a cm or two in 24 hours. Canopy looking nice and even and I think it will all fill the net nicely. Took a few fan leaves from the litter portion of the plants and one or two that were on top shading. Still don't feel dry enough to water, time to give them an extra boost of nutrients in the next watering and see if they cope. I have added a top dress. 18.6 Added the mars hydro UV and IR combo lights, we'll see if they do make a difference. Still feel quite heavy, no need for water yet. Each cola has no more than 3 nodes on each, and there's a few side branches (single node branches) bit they may not name the cut , we'll see before a major defoliation in 10-15 days time. 21.6 Finally needed a watering, so gave them the same juicy feed. Stetching is good, not too lanky.... Yet

The 3th week of 12/12 is history and flowering has entered the grow room. 😋 I marked day 53 (day 17 of 12/12) as the first day of actual flowering. Everyday I've checked if there were fungus gnats trapped on the yellow sticky traps and I've spotted a few. So not a total infestation. I've also checked for signs of hermies and I haven't seen any. I've had one a few years ago and it pretty much ruined the whole grow. Seeds everywhere. But that was another breeder and strain. Under the screen I did some final pruning and above a minor defoilation. The Runtz are stretching nicely and the screen is filled pretty much like I wanted it to. Gonna leave them alone now, done with bending those shoots under the screen. This weeks temperatures stayed between 20,6°C (69°F) and 24,2 °C (75,5°F) and humidity levels between 44 – 56 % Light pressure was raised from 244 watt at 70cm (27 inch) to 260 watt at 63cm (25 inch). Their diet consisted of ph adjusted tapwater (ph 6,38 – ec 0,49) most of the week. They were barely fed for 1 day. Gonna keep it that way as long as I don't see any signals of shortages or surpluses. Naturally, ec leves will rise next week but one day of feeding seems enough for now. Smell is coming in slightly, but the CAN-lite carbon filter is doing it's job. There's a 600m³ one hanging in the grow room connected to a 550m³ Airfan foam softbox that's dimmed at 40% since the start of this grow. That was the most important info for this week. Up to next week's flowers!✋ Do you want to grow this strain? 👉 https://www.zamnesia.com/6000-zamnesia-seeds-runtz-feminized.html 👈

- Semana 4 🌱 🌡️ Ambiente Hemos mantenido el clima bastante estable durante toda la semana: 🌞 Con luz: 24–26 °C 🌙 Sin luz: 23–24 °C 💧 Humedad: 55–65% estable Actualmente estamos en 25 °C y 60% HR bastante constantes. Aumentamos extracción e intracción al 50%, unos 250 m³ ambos. 💡 Iluminación Potencia al 60%. PPFD medido con Photone: ~500 PPFD centro ~400 PPFD laterales Distancia media foco-plantas: entre 35–45 cm (según altura de cada planta). Hemos ido rotando: Cada planta sobre sí misma cada 24 h. Cambio de posición cada 3 días (las más altas a los laterales, las más bajas al centro). La diferencia entre centro y esquina es de unos 100–150 PPFD aproximadamente. 💧 Riegos y nutrición Esta semana hicimos: 🔹 Riego fuerte de limpieza 2,5 L por maceta pH 6,2 EC 0,8 (solo agua base, sin fertilizante) Drenaje superior al 30% en alguna para eliminar exceso de sales y estrés de las raíces. Decidimos hacerlo así para estabilizar después de notar que una de las BC reaccionó mal tras un riego anterior con abono. Regamos cada 2–3 días las que más comen y cada 4 días las menos hambrientas y estresadas. En semanas anteriores utilizamos base de crecimiento junto con: Silic Pro CO₂ Pro Los últimos días optamos por no añadir comida en el último riego para resetear un poco el medio. ✂️ Podas y estructura Hemos hecho poda ligera y estratégica: 2–3 hojas por planta. Eliminación de hojas que bloqueaban nudos. Nada agresivo. Los nudos están muy juntos, entrenudos compactos y tallos gruesos. 📊 Estado por grupos Actualmente tenemos: 1 BC muy fuerte (~30 cm). 1 planta sobre 26 cm (podada). 4–5 plantas sobre 17 cm. 1 planta de 23 cm que estuvo tocada de raíces. 3 más jóvenes creciendo bien. 1 BC con un poco de estrés y acumulación de sales. El canopy está bastante homogéneo dentro de lo razonable por fenotipos distintos. ⚠️ La BC amarilla Esta es la planta que más atención ha requerido. Síntomas que presentó: Verde lima general. Amarilleo en hojas bajas. Algunas puntas quemadas. Decaimiento leve. Hojas inferiores que se volvieron crujientes. Crecimiento más lento que el resto. Lo curioso es que esta planta siempre fue más clara desde el inicio, incluso antes del trasplante. Después de un riego con fertilizante, empeoró ligeramente, por eso decidimos hacer el riego solo con agua EC 0,8 y buen drenaje. Actualmente: No está empeorando. Tiene más de 6 brotes activos. Las hojas nuevas salen verde claro y luego oscurecen. Solo amarillean las más bajas. Va más lenta, pero estructuralmente está viva y trabajando. 📈 Crecimiento Algo importante: En altura no han crecido casi en la última semana. Se han quedado prácticamente igual. Pero: Muchísimos nudos. Troncos gruesos. Ramificación fuerte. Estructura compacta. 🎯 Conclusión de la semana Semana de estabilización. Clima estable. Luz controlada. Riego ajustado. Poda ligera. Observación de la BC problemática. El cultivo está sano en general. Compacto, estructurado y con mucha ramificación. La BC lenta sigue bajo vigilancia. 🌿👀 Veremos el progreso la siguiente semana. Saludos compis y buenas vibras 🐭

All is said in the video. The recommended flowering time was 60-66 days and I had to chop on 58. I wish it went to 66 but I couldn't control the environment and air flow so mold developed on a bud. Some trichomes are still clear but most of them are cloudy and some even amber. The harvest was impressive considering all the mistakes I made. Big and dense colas, I'm expecting ≈ 100g per plants. They are now drying and waiting to be delicately unseeded.

La Persian est au milieu de la box , très vigoureuse, j’en attend beaucoup de elle

it's amazing, this growth looks much better than my first attempt, my decision was to put a smaller pot and change the light - the girl really liked it, FastBuds goriilla cookies with a small space manage perfectly:).

I'm kinda late on the update, week 11 finished on sunday 4, now is feb 9th. Last time i gave them nutrients was on sunday jan 28th and i'm flushing them since that date. My intention was to take them down this sunday (11) but I will not be at home that day, maybe I'll cut them on monday 12th. Maybe on monday i will add week 12 and then when the drying is done I'll update the harvest. So far it seems like taller plant needs more time, as far as you guys have told me, seems like smaller is ready, but because of time I think I will cut them together. Also my intention es to create a video to participate on 2F4B contest, i forgot to record the harvesting of LSD25 so this strain is my chance.😀

Day 38 since starting germination: Everything is looking healthy and happy. I’ve FIMed the main and continued leaf tucking & LST. Upped the amount of Diamond nectar from 1ml/gal to 2ml/gal. Keeping the lights on 20/4 has kept the average low temp a degree higher at 66. I also changed the positioning of the lights. Now the Mars Hydro tsl2000 is providing ~500-550 ppfd across the canopy. At this point the plants in the RDWC loop have different nutrient needs so when I did my water change I also changed the orientation of my buckets. I removed the bucket with the Northern Lights photo period from the loop so it could be connected to its own reservoir and be fed a veg nutrient solution while the Sour D auto gets its bloom nutrients.

Week 2 day 7F. 2x bridal party on left, 2x queen on right. Added more lights day 7, now about 1000w.

High GD community, Week 9, Sweet Thai looking allready better then ĺast week. The topping start to grow gently and a full 13cm in height gained this week. Since 3 days(friday), the lightcycle changed into 13/11. Nonetheless spidermites are spotted on this lady, she doesnt back down. After a treathment with orio bugs, who i actually misordered because I didnt had my new microscope yet, trips are definitly gone, and orios do eat/attack spidermites, its not their favorite. So a second army of bugs, this time phyto mytes, its gonna be all about attack and digesting spidermites, Who didnt yet get crowdy so far. But after a check up of some leafs with the new microscope, i can see a lot of eggs and pretty active young spidermites. So the phytos will not come to early. Phytos do eat eggs as orios dont, so thats a big difference. Thats it for this week boys and girls, Thanks for reading and passing by, Grow safe buds and feel free to check out my other ladies doing fine, 🙏🌿🌿🌿🙏

Super hot week again, 32c days, she's loving it. Growth slowed a bit, just starting to finally see pistils, so hopefully on track for end of September harvest. Got a new DJI Mini 4K so I don't need to get on a ladder to get pictures anymore! Just drip irrigation and LCPT spray this week and that's it. Full 4K Drone video on YouTube @VanIsleTerps

Loved testing this batch, was a easier to grow and such gassy dense buds

Really bulking out now and look like a lot of these colas will be filled out completely by finish looking at the rate they are growing and the fact they have 4-5 weeks left estimate. Cheesy smell is getting stronger but only within the tent when working in there and disturbing and moving the buds, once zipped up the filter handles everything fine. Crazy trichome production going on so early in flower , these are going to be some very frosty nugs.

For the last day of the year we treat ourselves to the story of a special little girl. Her name is Biscotti, her name already says it all about the potential of this young girl born in Holland with this beautiful Italian Strain Name, she is precious and full of style since conception. She looks like she was designed by Pininfarina who smokes joints. It's a bit as if Gianni Versace had dressed her, extravagant, provocative, truly flamboyant, if you have the patience to look at the thousand photos that I made clear that I literally couldn't stop taking. It's a journey I don't want to leave, especially when I'm in the middle of it. terpenes, please leave me there! She grew up quietly, with her small internodal distance you could see that she was beautiful even without flowers, but it was when she flowered that she truly gave her best. Already from the first weeks of flowering you can understand very very well that the girl has a bright color and she threw resin very early thanks to Power Buds, Sugar Royal and Green Sensation in my opinion. The flowers have an imposing shape, they really are beautiful little purple beasts just in the dry room, for a few days soon we will do an initial test and then we will wait to taste it without too much fresh taste. I’m about sure to have rated 10 stars the strain and all feeding 5 stars but i found the strain rated 9 stars and the feeding 4, not sure but almost sure. I often get sad when I cut it, I'm too sad to cut it, I always think I'll smoke it and everything, but it's so beautiful that it makes my heart ache to cut it. It's her life cycle, otherwise she would rot for goodness sake, it's a joke but I really have a moment of shock in her heart. She'll move on to the first vaporized one I guess. Technique used - She was worked with a. single topping cut but leaving the two branches lower than the cut, thus obtaining 4 main branches with the relative branches. I also did a bit of LST at the beginning but having space problems then I decided not to let it expand too much. Flowers are beautiful beasts for truly yummi. Fertilizers - We have to make a special mention of Plagron I wrote a review in this diary which only partially explains how good this line of fertilizers is. I feel like I saw with my own eyes the changes in the plants when I gave the additives, I really saw the plants push in resin and everything. For more information read the review, I don't like to be repetitive, I don't write the quantities, they are also in the diary and in any case very similar to those recommended by the manufacturer. Never exceed this with any fertilizer and always flush. Light and home - The light was provided by MarsHydro and the home as well, it is the SP 3000, a piece that is not of the latest generation but which I love for its length of around 110 cm which you can understand how it covers me super well, the 120 wide wide grow room cm, 60cm deep and 180cm high, always supplied by them with a better than average covering by a lot and fantastic windows from which to spy on the girls. I really love accessory holders that hang either inside or outside the growbox. top brand now leader. There are many photos like my passion for this wonderful plant, look at as many as you want but if you have the patience to get to the end there are various super crop terpenes, beautiful and big like Porcini Mushrooms. Love you "BISCOTTI IS BETTER THAN COOKIES" Recommend this strain to everyone, go out and shout it in the streets, Biscotti is the most beautiful in the situation. https://www.zamnesia.io/it/9484-zamnesia-seeds-biscotti.html Plagron is a guarantee in feeding your little ones, I have been using it for many years until recently I thought that basic fertilizers were enough to make the little ones grow then I put the Green Sensation and I completely changed my mind. https://plagron.com/en I have started a series of experiments using stimulating frequencies for plants, I am trying something from the next round we will use it fixed.
