So i did heavy defoliation for light penetration and extra stretch in the middle of the crown. Took one graft and grafted on pretty abused multistrain Mother plant . Remove branches and did lollipoping. Everything under last 3/rd of crown. Giving more space for roots in 30L bucket. Also. I refilled 10L from 15L thru the week. Start at 6,0Ph and 1,8EC fed twice with same solution. Today Ph 6,7 and 1,4EC. Sne will be moved to bigger bucket and i Mix the old solution with New water and season it to 5,7Ph and 2,0EC with a plagron hydro A/B, hydro roots and pinch of great white mycco. She is 40cm wide and 25cm tall. I will pack her next saturday under the scrog net and switch her in bloom. 35cm light distance 900ppfd. For first two weeks to get mid stretch. At least 15cm vertically. 25 at most. Because of light penetration. I want 30 buds. Maybe using second scrog net is a good idea. With different eye sizes. To separate buds correctly. I will add more fotos of New bucket later. Its saturday valentines Day.

She was a pleasure to cut. Beautiful trim. So far pure berries and gas. I'll update on the smoke report once she's cured. I had a mini toke sesh earlier and it was definitely LSD. Definitely turning on some different visual/auditory receptors. It was nice and long and happy. She's only going to continue to get better. The buds are kind of fluffy but I find that all the purples I've grown turn out like that. The greens tend to produce much more weight/density. I'm not one to harp on density. I'm more about the flavor/effect.

So this is how things are looking at the end of Week 8,going into week 9. Definitely one of my best grows yet, no issues whatsoever, great strain to run, if I like how she smokes (which I'm sure I will) I will definitely run her again.

******************************************** Harvest report. 📋Well what can I say, this is by far the nicest smoke I have ever had, the taste is phenomenal, its gelato with a spicy earthy after taste to it. The smoke is quite a balanced high but very strong and kicks in quickly. I think its going to be a minimum THC of 25%. Buds are super dense and sticky as hell. She was relatively easy to grow, had slight issue over feeding at one point. I have spent years trying to find a strain that I would class as my perfect smoke and I think I have found it. Will I grow it again? Definitely. Would I recommend it? Yes. If anyone reads this report, go get some of these seeds and get them grown, I can say you shouldn't be disappointed by this strain, it's fire. 📋Stats Seed to harvest=128 days. Veg=42 days. Flower=86 days Dry weight=79g 📋Stats for the grow Start to finish=136 Days Plant #1=79g Plant #2=109g Total=188g Back soon. Take it easy. ********************************************

Day 34-28/08/22 my diaries have got abit messy as I’ve been unwell but so far so good with this tulip can’t wait 😜 growing really well!!

This is my first project. I hope to learn a lot from this new experience and get the best feedback from it. Its good to say that i have been applying some work experience in project design and management in this new hobbie.

Been alot of new growth . My tricomes are like 90 murky 5 clear 5 amber but she starting to fatten up. Idk I just changed solution. But debating if I should take her down already

Wow I'm impressed with her flowers this week!!!!! They have swollen so much!!!!!!!!!! On she goes!

🌱 VEGETATIVE (4 weeks) The Runtz seed, placed in a root-riot cube within a DWC net pot, successfully sprouted by day 4, under an 18/6 light cycle (50W at 50cm). The first week saw the seedling establish itself, with roots extending into the DWC reservoir. During the second week, despite slightly low humidity and temperature, the seedling demonstrated robust and rapid growth. Light intensity was increased to 75W. Towards the end of this week, I removed the first set of true leaves as they were growing too close to the substrate. The third week marked a noticeable increase in the plant's water uptake (1 LT/day), which prompted me to raise the nutrient solution's EC to 1.0. The plant showed significant development while maintaining a compact stature – a trait I appreciated. In the fourth and final week of vegetation, as odors began to emerge, I installed a carbon filter, raised the EC to 1.2, keep the pH in the right range and boosted the light intensity further to 150W. By the end of this phase, the plant was bushy, compact (21 cm height), and healthy. 🌸 FLOWERING (8 weeks) For the first week I switched the light cycle to 12/12 and introduced a new nutrient solution adding Power Buds to the mix. During the second week I was impressed to see preflowers clearly visible as early as day 10 of flowering. So, during the third week I made a substantial defoliation session to manage the plant's increasing bushiness, which I knew would be crucial for later-stage light penetration and humidity control. In the fourth week I introduced a PK 8/9 booster, Green Sensation, thereby increasing the phosphorus and potassium concentration in the solution, water consumption around 3 LT/day. Towards the end of the week, I performed another significant defoliation, including the removal of lower, light-starved branches, to which the plant responded well. During the fifth week the stretching phase concluded, with the plant reaching its final height of 69cm. Its focus shifted to bud development, and the foliage began to adopt a darker hue. At this point, my role was primarily to maintain stable environmental parameters and a correct pH in reservoir. During the sixth week buds were visibly swelling daily, the plant remained in excellent health, and resin production became more pronounced. For the seventh week I implemented a change in feeding, completely cutting the nitrogen from the DWC solution, using only Green Sensation at a higher concentration. In the eighth and final week of flowering (week 12 overall), I performed a complete DWC reservoir change. I filled it with plain tap water and maintained this for 4 days leading up to harvest. On day 56 of flowering (84 from seed), the Runtz plant appeared perfectly ready. The buds were dense and glistening, pistils mostly browned and retracted, and trichomes displayed a good mix of milky and some amber. Immediately after harvesting her, I removed the fan leaves, deciding to dry these as well due to their remarkable resin content. ✅ DRYING The entire plant was hung to dry inside the grow box, which was kept completely dark with constant, gentle air circulation for 8 days. The average VPD during this period was maintained around 1.2 (approximately 20°C and 50% RH). Once this drying period was complete, I trimmed off all the sugar leaves. These resinous sugar leaves will be combined with the already dried fan leaves and larf buds, and I plan to use them to make cannabutter for edibles. ⚖️ Dry weight After the 8-day drying period, and once all the remaining small leaves and branches were removed from the buds, I weighed the final product: The harvest yielded: - 150 grams of dense buds and 5 grams of finger hash. For edibles: - 30 grams of larf and a large amount of fan and sugar leaves. ✅ CURING For the curing process, the dried buds were placed in a large, airtight glass jar. This jar was stored in a dark location within a room maintaining a stable temperature of around 20°C for a total of 45 days. The burping schedule was as follows: Day 1-7: twice daily for 10 min. Day 8-10: once daily for 10 min. Day 11-14: every other day for 10 min. Day 15-21: every 3 days for 10 min. Day 22-30: every 4 days for 10 min. Day 31-45: No burping. 📑 SMOKE REVIEW - At 15 days cured a vegetal note is still quite present and the smoke is a bit harsh, typical for a short cure. The effects are already pleasant and potent, very promising. - After 30 days of curing, the Runtz has improved considerably. The vegetal smell has mostly faded, giving way to a much more defined sweet and fruity fragrance reminiscent of candy and berries. The smoke is noticeably smooth, euphoric effects are dominant. - At 45 days, Runtz has expressed its full potential and is now perfectly cured for daily enjoyment. The aroma is intense and complex, an explosive mix of sweet candy and tropical notes. The effects are potent, starting with an uplifting cerebral euphoria that evolves into a pleasant body relaxation, without leading to couch-lock. 🍕 I also made cannabutter which I used to finish a risotto. The result was insane – both the risotto itself and the potency of the cannabutter were exceptional!

Black Mamba is absolutely thriving! 🐍🔥 She’s growing beautifully and developing an exceptionally intense aroma 🌿✨ Week 10 is done and things are getting seriously exciting. I can’t wait to see how she finishes up! Get ready for the official release 🚀 Everything grown with Bio Tabs seriously amazing nutrients for super easy handling and strong, healthy plants 💪🌱 Stay tuned… this one’s going to be special. 😎🔥

Esta semana toca trasplantar, ya que el sustrato ha sido colonizado. Utilizamos Macetas textiles de 4L para mejorar el drenaje, esta vez solo añadimos Bio Terra Plus, nada de perlita. Nada más finalizar los trasplantes, regamos abundantemente solo con agua y en el siguiente riego continuamos con la mezcla de fertilizantes. La potencia de los LazerLite Pro 720 sigue al mínimo, aunque ya son cuatro conectados (uno por variedad = 1 m2).

Week 6. Im watering every 2 days. Fish shit and mammoth p every 3rd water. Rest just ph'd water. Alot of tricombs on the Purple Punch. Getting fat and juicy. Probably gonna ha4vest the Purple Punches in a week. GMOs finally coming along starting to fatten up and become a bit crystally. They still got 4 weeks or so left.

So beautiful looks its going vey well apart of thats its too hot the heat from the lights if there is no air circulation it gtes very humid and i have to leave the tent open

Just in drying but she smells strong, looks drenched in resinous crystals and I just can’t wait to get her dried and cure. Beautiful plant with nice sized buds. The smell is the strongest I’ve grown like an earthy pine smell full of crystals still curing but my tester blunt put me to sleep but not as smooth as I’d like yet so back in the jar! Full smoke report will be up after a full cure. After a 2 week cure the taste is phenomenal and old school flavour that brings back memories, earthy notes with hints of liquorice tastes a lot like a good quality hash. Nice smooth smoke that packs a punch. Definitely can’t beat the OG strains. The high creeps up on you but not to intensely and lasts hours!

Came home from vacation to gorgeous ladies and their light fragrances. More to follow soon.

I removed the tops that will not get enough light started some basic opening of the canopy and some defoliation. This topdress should help the transition to flower in a weeks time.

Started the week off by swapping the girls tent for my tiny 2x2x4 and they loved the environment. Such a small space, so easy to maintain. Increased the nutrients to about 1/4 the recommended dose from Advanced Nutrients, and also increased the water to a little over 1 cup by the end of the week, the girls responded great, and perked right up. I didn’t dial up the light this week as they were in a much smaller tent, but will be moving them to my big tent , while also transplanting n the very near future. I like to move up to 2 gallon pots for the 1 transplant, then move into their final 4 or 5 gallon pot around week 6 or 7, just in time for them to settle in before flipping to flower. Happy Gradening 🇨🇦👊❤️🌱
