🌟 Eternity Grow Cup – Week 3 Veg Report 🌱 Another week in the books, legends, and though the temps aren’t perfect, our Runtz babies are growing strong! 💪 This week marks a pivotal moment as we get serious and start to push these girls toward greatness. 🌱 Growth Update: • The girls are officially showing their third pair of leaves, and while they’re growing slow due to cooler temps, they’re consistent. Standing at 6 cm tall, these beauties are ready for the next steps in their journey. • The yellow sticky traps have also done their job, catching some gnats—always a win for pest management! Let’s talk about the unexpected guests making an appearance in the grow room—gnats! These tiny critters can be a common nuisance for growers, especially in environments with moist soil. While they’re not devastating, they can be a sign that things need a bit of tweaking. Why the Yellow Stickers? Yellow sticky traps are like candy for gnats—they’re irresistibly attracted to the bright color, which mimics flowers. These traps are a simple, non-toxic way to monitor and control the population. It’s not just satisfying to see them stuck (though, let’s admit it, it kind of is)—it’s also a great way to keep tabs on how many are lurking around and take action if necessary. What Causes Gnats? Gnats love moist environments, and overwatering or humidity that’s a bit too high can create their perfect breeding ground. Using high-quality soil like Pro-Mix HP with Mycorrhizae helps, but these little critters can still sneak in. How to Handle Them? While yellow stickers are a great first line of defense, staying vigilant with watering practices is key. Letting the top layer of soil dry out between waterings can disrupt their life cycle. Plus, products like beneficial nematodes or soil conditioners can help keep them under control. They may be tiny, but we’ve got our eye on them! Let’s not let the gnats steal the show—our Runtz have got all the spotlight! 🌟 Nutrient Regimen: This week, we’re sticking with the Aptus Clean Mineral Line for Veg, a powerful combo designed for optimal plant health: • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L – This keeps the plants strong, aids in stress tolerance, and boosts nutrient uptake. • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L – Balances the water profile and improves nutrient delivery. • All-in-One Liquid: 1.25 ml/L – Provides a balanced mix of essential macro and micronutrients for sustained growth. 📌 Key Stats: • pH: 6.05 • EC: 1.0 • Temp: 18.3°C 🔧 Tech, Tools & Building the Dream Studio Behind the grow, I’ve been fine-tuning my workspace. Using just a piece of wood, carefully cut feet, and some imagination, I’ve elevated my monitors for better editing. It’s not fancy, but it works! 💻✨ For the grow, my trusted TrolMaster gear (from the Tent-X to the AMP-3) has been my go-to for precision. Every measure—pH, EC, temps—is logged and tracked to keep these plants thriving. 🌟 Exciting Milestones: 💚 Huge thank you to the community for helping me reach: • 500 YouTube Subscribers 🎥 – Weekly episodes are dropping, so make sure to tune in for detailed updates! • 4.5K Instagram Followers 📸 – Join the fun as we share the Runtz journey and so much more! 💨 Welcome, Ziggi Papers!

Other then that trichomes are getting crazy on The buds , they are really filling out now starting week 3 . Futur vert FM8 led is killer I’m loving it , added a SensorPush and a carbon filter the dank dank smells are coming on strong 👃 🍓🍪🍉

10 janeiro - regada com 2l de água.

Die Babys haben das neue Zuhause im Topf unter unter der stärkeren Lampe super angenommen. Sie sehen gesund und vital aus. Keinerlei Spuren von irgendwelchen Defiziten. Zwischenzeitlich musste ich schon das ein, oder andere Blatt entfernen, sodaß die unteren Triebe schön Licht bekommen und sich gut entwickeln können.

This is going to be an exciting week. This blueberry is looking quite beefy and really excited to see how it progresses through flower. Grapefruit is looking nice, pretty stocky and super bushy. She just wants to keep shooting leaves. You would have no idea there’s a pile of grapefruit leaves plucked off of it.

Day 38-44: - #1 10cm growth; #2 5cm growth - adjusting lst every few days - 2l every 2 days

I did a final round of stripping small branches and big fan leaves the other day, ending week 3 of flower. I've started ramping up koolbloom powder and Epsom salt. I've dialed back my fertigation events to 2 per day, I'm still getting runoff, but the plants don't seem to mind this change so far. These plants seem fast to flip, and I'm hoping to see some bud development kick off this week. The strain seems to be about a week ahead of strains I've grown in the past. There aren't any super terpy smells yet, but it's starting to smell like something. I'll be posting a midweek update in 3 days. 6/26 The plants are starting to put out some unique terpenes, Ethos' description is very accurate, fruit stripe gum and gasoline. It isn't super strong yet, but I can smell it when I manipulate some leafs. I'm done defoliating, and will let them go until harvest. Happy growing everyone!

Week #10 Gnomo Auto By Kannabia Week#10 Dec.30th-Jan.6th Gnomo Auto had stayed true to the indica genetics she has she's a shorter plant that's stocky with tight dense buds that are covered in trichomes. She's been a easy grow due to her genetics No real issues. I highly recommend if you like to grow indica or have limited space!

Plants at the back look very green and overfed so I dropped the Ec a little, Had to defoliate again to try combat the high humidity, hoping it drops a bit, probably stunted the growth a little but hoping I didnt stress them too bad, My lights are max height so hoping they stop growing vertically, they got a little taller this week and some leaves are getting bleached.

Right now it’s a pre harvest I took a few of the branches and it plenty left i I’ll be back with in 2 weeks or so with and fa sure harvest report 12/18/21 *update so far with the buds I harvested half the left side 83.7 grams minus the few grams I smoked already not 2 shabby for a rookie. N I still got more drying. Dat I just harvested and whole another side to harvest hope I can hit That qp mark dat would Be awesome sauce will be back with the rest of the harvest *Update 12/26/07. My first weigh in was 83.7 and this one was 69.1 so in all I have 152 grams off one plant a qp off one plant from a. Vipar spectra. 450w And galaxy hydro 300 w. NOt to shabby for a noob I will be selling my lights to get me optic 4 led with CREE cobs or maybe get the optic 6 led. I can only imagine the yields. Oan Merry Christmas Feliz Navida. happy hannakah and everything else in between

acho que ainda consegui produzir uns tricomas com as correções da água, mas como o estágio da floração já estava bem avançado, as folhas começaram a descolorir muito cedo, tive que colher 3 plantas precocemente, as outras 3 menos vou tentar seguir mais 2 semanas, não estão mostrando tricomas Ambar ainda!

Logging data is upcoming soon

Our second Watermelon Candy Automatic, naturally only from Zamnesia, like all the plants I grow, is truly a great result. I'm very disappointed that I broke the main cola during LST when the flower hadn't yet formed, but I'm equally happy I didn't cut the plant as I was about to. In the end, the flowers turned out beautifully, and you can see them clearly. Look at the flowers; they're beautifully plump, full of resin, and with a scent that feels like it's wafting under your nose like a spring breeze. The trichomes are beautiful, and it's a truly stunning plant. Techniques chosen: Here, we were using LST and the main branch broke, so we left a little LST on the remaining branches. We're 100% organic and 1000% Plagron, as always. The soil we chose is the recently launched Plagron Bio LightMix, which will allow us to get started with smoother and more reliable watering, without the sudden changes that liquid fertilizers can cause. A week's worth of soil is enough, so don't overdo it. Choose your preferred style and calculate your results on the website: www.plagron.com Visit the new Growshop area on the Zamnesia website: Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/it/531-growshop A fantastic strain, not too tall but very bushy! Give it a try! Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/it/7484-zamnesia-watermelon-candy-automatic-semi-seeds.html Z - This feminized strain boasts everything you've come to know and love about the original cultivar, but with a few welcome improvements. Combining Watermelon x Candy Kush with a pinch of ruderalis genetics results in a strain you won't want to miss, we promise. Being an autoflowering strain, the growing options are practically endless. So, whether you choose to grow it indoors or outdoors, one thing is certain: it will be extremely easy to grow. Otherwise, it will take care of itself without requiring any special care. With a little general care and pruning, you can control its growth all the way to harvest. It's perfect for beginners growing indoors, as well as more experienced growers looking for easy-to-grow, high-yielding plants. Although it's not a particularly tall plant, its size can be easily controlled with LST, to which it responds positively. So, if you're interested in experimenting with this technique, don't be afraid to give Watermelon Candy Auto a try. In just 9-10 weeks from seed to harvest, this strain grows rapidly and, just like the original, will display a bushy canopy completely covered in large buds. Regardless of your growing environment, you can expect impressive yields. Indoor plants produce 350-400 g/m², while plants left to flower outdoors produce 50-100 g/plant. These are quite substantial yields for an autoflowering strain. With a THC level of 20%, Watermelon Candy Auto is a 50/50 sativa/indica hybrid, offering users the best of both worlds. After a few tokes, you'll feel more optimistic, and even the most stoic smokers won't be able to suppress a smile. After a few minutes, a deep sense of relaxation will take over, perfect for welcoming you home after a long day. Overall, Watermelon Candy Auto builds on the qualities that made the original so popular, but it also has other qualities that make it a much simpler and more practical option. You know it, but I recommend it. You'll find so much beauty here, essentially "the best that nature has to offer." Z - www.zamnesia.com Music // www.radionula.com + Feng Shui Music + Frequency 432Hz

Yes

Finally it was time to cur them down. There is a nice layer of glassy trichomes and the plants have dense buds. I am expecting a decent harvest outcom. Updates will follow drying and curing proceeds

This strain is very heterozygous. 4 seeds were started. The 4 phenos were very different. I saved 2 of those phenos for my arsenal, which is quite exceptionnal. I ususally save just one pheno from a strain. The Pheno #1 was mainly sativa (75%). Long branches. Lots of fluffy buds. The more resistant to mold, but it has to be with the fluffiness. The taste was cheesy and spicy, which has nothing to see with the 3 other phenos. Not a single ressemblance with ak-47 parents as well. It shares the musky undertones of the strain, but nothing else. That pheno is gone. Not enough potential. Terpene profile was deceiving, just as the cannabinoid content. The Pheno #2 has more indica in it (45% indica). robust and tall plant with dense heavy buds. No mold resistance at all. Biggest producer. The taste was earthy and musky with hints of wood. That pheno is gone. Not enough potential. The Pheno #3 is my favorite one. It reminded me of the good old Ak-47, with her flowery/sweet/skunky smell and taste. Pure nostalgia! Tall and quite robust plant with huge fluffy buds coated with trichomes. She grows pretty similar to Lemon Skunk if you know the reference. Great producer of top quality buds. So sticky! In my top 3 sativa for 2 years. The aroma is very close to the old school Ak-47: sweet, flowery and skunky. It tastes like sweet lemon on the inhale, with a sharp touch of spicy lavender and earth on the exhale. IMO, that is the pheno we want to save from that heterozygous strain. Backcrossing this one would be a very good idea. The Pheno #4 is just as interesting as my favorite #3. The only issue with this one is about mold resistance. Crazy compact and heavy budst! One of the most productive I’ve ever seen too. More traits of the Ak-47 in the aromatic profile, but nothing like the #3. On the structure side, we can immediately recognize the sturdy and bushy structure of Ak-47. THC content is very high too. I suspect the CBD content to be high as well. The effect is a mood elevation, with good focus and a deep body relaxation; a bit similar to what White widow does. The aroma is earthy and pungent. Very skunky and musky. It tastes very sweet and earthy on the inhale, with hints of skunk on the exhale. That pheno #4 expresses the best traits of the Ak-47 in its structure, while pheno #3 kept the aromatic profile.
