16.01.2026 – BT 75 Zu guter Letzt stand die Zoap Rose an. Gegen Ende der Blüte fiel mir leider auf, dass sich in einigen Buds einzelne Bananen gebildet hatten. Zudem habe ich vorsorglich fünf Samen entfernt. Beim Ernten selbst kamen mir jedoch direkt extrem intensive Terps entgegen: sehr fruchtig, mit einem leichten Hauch von Kaugummi. Von allen drei Pflanzen hatte diese definitiv das beste Terpenprofil. Kommen wir nun zum Highlight des Ganzen. Auch diese Pflanze wurde – wie zuvor schon die Apples & Oranges – mit der DryRocket getrocknet. Dieses Mal habe ich die Pflanze jedoch nicht komplett austrocknen lassen, sondern sie drei Tage nach dem letzten Gießgang geerntet. Anschließend kam sie in ein 40 × 40 × 160 cm Zelt. Ursprünglich war geplant, mein 120 × 60 Zelt zu nutzen, doch nach Rücksprache mit DryRocket wurde mir empfohlen, ein kleineres Zelt zu verwenden. Der Grund: In kleineren Zelten lässt sich die relative Luftfeuchtigkeit oft besser kontrollieren, da sie dort natürlicherweise schneller ansteigt als in größeren Räumen. Also gesagt, getan – die DryRocket bekam eine weitere Chance. Und was soll ich sagen: Das Ergebnis war Bombe. Nach der Trocknung lagen die Buds bei 62 % RLF in den Grove Bags und die Terpene waren weiterhin krank am Start. Zum Vergleich: Die Clementine Slush wurde parallel in DryFerm Bags getrocknet. Hier habe ich aktuell noch einen eher heuartigen Geruch, was sich erfahrungsgemäß jedoch meist während des anschließenden Curings legt, bevor die eigentlichen Terpene zum Vorschein kommen. Das Zelt selbst wurde zusätzlich noch mit Frischhaltefolie abgedichtet, sodass wirklich alles luftdicht war. Ich musste mich während der gesamten Trocknung um absolut nichts kümmern. In der App wird eine Raumtemperatur von ca. 19–23 °C empfohlen – in genau diesem Bereich war ich durchgehend. Ich habe kein einziges Mal manuell ins System eingegriffen. Die Trocknung verlief dieses Mal spürbar langsamer als beim ersten Durchgang. Auch das Granulat der DryRocket war am Ende vollständig gesättigt, was sich deutlich an der grünen Färbung erkennen ließ. Fazit: Der Test ist definitiv bestanden ! Ich kann die DryRocket hier guten Gewissens weiterempfehlen. Wie schon in meinem anderen Beitrag erwähnt, wünsche ich mir für die Zukunft allerdings noch ein paar Verbesserungen: Eine Möglichkeit, das RocketFuel (Silica Gel) selbst zu regenerieren oder zur Regeneration einzuschicken Eine erweiterte App mit mehr Parametern und Einstellmöglichkeiten Der aktuelle Preis liegt bei 299 € inklusive RocketFuel. Ob einem das den Preis wert ist, muss am Ende jeder für sich selbst entscheiden. Produktion und Support sitzen in Deutschland, was für mich ein klarer Pluspunkt ist Des Weiteren möchte ich mich bei Shogun, DrainMaster und DryRocket für die Möglichkeit bedanken, ihre Produkte testen zu dürfen – das ist natürlich nicht selbstverständlich!

GTH SEED #1 in training, just super cropped on one side to even conopy. The first site im recording will be a clone,it is on back side of plant and will not produce. #2,#3,#4 pics,#2 is stripped of leaves at about 12 inches. 06/16/18 #4 is showing pre-flowers,#2,#3, no sign yet. #1 check in the morning. 06/19/2018 Still no pre -flowers on #1,#2,#3, #4 however is female so I Fimmed her to encourage side shoots to grow biggest of wider canopy. #1 reacting well to supercropping 20 tops as of today. Praying she is female🙏🙏. She is a stretchy girl in flower 2 to 3 x her vegged height so trying to be low profile as possible.👍

You can see the nice healthy colour from the Seaweed foliar spray last week, Will keep that up bi weekly until first flower. Another 12 gal of water for each plant this week as there seems to be no end to this drought. Added blood and bone meal to keep the plant going well into the end of august. And the weekly Silica Foliar spray. https://www.homehardware.ca/en/10kg-4-10-0-bone-meal-fertilizer/p/5025590?page=search-results%20page https://www.homehardware.ca/en/12kg-blood-meal-fertilizer/p/5025554

Well...that escalated quickly...she's stretching and stretching i was worried i'd run out of space. I started using 'bends' to supercrop some of the primary tops to level out the canopy. Upped the PPM to 700 and she didn't like it again. The PPM increased after three days so I backed off and decreased it to 600. Not sure if it's the nutes collecting at the bottom of the res but i moved the meter around. Added some Zyme as I had some sample capsules - Hopefully will benefit her. Everything looks fine so far and doesn't seem to be any deficiencies. Timelapse is over the course of 11 days - final timelapse is day 25 of flower..

Week 8! I defoliated this plant finally. It took quite a while to even go into flowering (wasn't until the 7th week), so I'm hoping I didn't defoliate too soon. Ton of little bud sites now visible. I'm so curious how it's going to mature. Mix of thunderstorms and bright sun here. It's probably getting less light than it should because I'm keeping it under the roof a lot of the day.

1st photo We did the scrog, it helped us a little more to use as support to tie the branches with threads and manipulate them as we wanted, so we tamed it. but they kept growing as my colleague affirms

Hi all🧑‍🌾 Welcome to my final 🍌💜👊 week update. First of all. I would like to thank you all for such an amazing support on this bananas journey. I am amazed of the amount of love received from community here. Thank you Grow Diaries and Fastbuds for opportuniy to share and grow this amazing genetics. Love you all❤️💜💚 Was looking for strong indica dominant strain and after reading and hearing so much about this one. Just couldn't resist to not give a go. Was a bit worried before planting seeds that my final yield outcome may not be satisactionary as only have 0.26msq and Fastbuds advertising this strain as 450-550g msq but thankfuly my result was way above this scale. My 2 beautiful ladies Athena - right corner lady. She was slighlthly more dominant over entire grow cycle. She got more space on scrog earlier and that's why she developed the most. Xena - left corner lady, I belive that she could outgrew her sister if she just have more space and another week of time. Did not expect her to turn so well on the end. Both girls were put in darkness for 48h before chop. Wet trimmed and hang for a week. Daily jars burbing for 10 days and every 2-4 days now. Weights Wet trimmed Athena 870g Xena 632g Total 1502g Dry trimmed Athena 172g Xena 147g Total dry 319g Bubble hash 6g (37g of trims) I am very happy with this result. In my opinion Banana Purple Punch Auto its a masterpiece. Thank you so much for all the support, likes, follows and comments 🙏❤️💜❤️ Peace and love brother and sisters ✌️💚🧑‍🌾 Smoke review coming in shortly Links https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/banana-purple-punch-auto https://plagron.com https://www.biobizz.com/ https://fishheadfarms.com/

Honestly not much to say about the dry and trim, which is definitely a good thing. 12 days hanging in the tent, and the plants were ready to trim. me & the Mrs. absolutely sailed through it. Stores like a dream, and smokes the same. Not a crazy amount of flavour, but the aroma that it has is lime and cream. And the taste is more earthy and spicy. Loving and savouring every bit of it. Sorry I’m very late with this, but I’ve been busy getting my next plants started! You should see them come up soon, as I’m quite behind in my posting. I’m very happy! 🤟💚

The Roswell Code is doing great. It is now entering the mass phase. The Hesi Bloom Complex has reached 5ml/L, the Hesi Phosphorus Plus is going to 1ml/L, and Hesi PowerZyme is at 2ml/L. I am lowering the pH value by another 0.2, so now it is 6.3-6.2 until the end of the flowering phase. This will allow it to absorb all the nutrients it needs that are available to it 👌. The scent is getting stronger, with a hint of citrus. The next update will come on a beautiful Wednesday. Stay high. May all your ladies grow healthy and magnificent and provide you with tasty stuff 🔥.
