26.12.24: These are my 2 best plants P1 and P2 Purple Punch, they are looking great! Not sure what happened to P3. They are in early flower/ pre-flower with the pistils clearly seen on P2. I am also hoping to tie some of the branches down to help light penetration on the lower canopies. I have noticed light stress on my plants. I had moved the lights further away and increased the light intensity to 70%. Unfortunately that created some issues. Namely severe palour of the leaves. To try and rectify the situation, I've dimmed the lights to about 30%, staying at the same distance, about 30 inches away. I measured the par levels, after I did this. They should a reading of anywhere between 40 and 150, at the canopy of the plants. They are all different sizes. This seems to have improved the colouring on all plants. After this evenings watering, I will monitor recovery and increase lighting intensity again slowly. I am also using the light cycle of 21/3, so the plants have many hours more light to absorb, than for example 12/12 or 18/6. I am pleased with the progress, considering all of my mistakes! 29.12.24: So I finally gave LST a shot, it's probably a bit too late, however I really want to get the most of the triploid pheno, and I went a little crazy and LST'd all plants except 2, as they're too small. I did that late last night, this afternoon I was amazed to see the plants turn their leaves back to the light source. I'm glad I overcame my fear of trying it. I'm very excited to see them adapt and progress! 😁 there are videos above with before and after of my LST process. Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

Some issues with soil being too wet. But we have hit preflower on Christmas.

21.09.21.банана празднует 3х недельный юбилей, немного растянул сегодня. Опрыскиваю ежедневно динамексом и через полив корневой стим рутфармс. В принципе все по плану. Всё хорошо, а вам как кажется? 24.09.21. Полет в нормальном режиме, банана приземистая, плотная и яркая. Листья начали пахнуть, запах необычный. Гну, прыскаю, поливаю по графику. Ещё пару недель веги и на цвет😁до встречи, друзья 25.09.21 плановая тренировка LST прошла успешно, банану все нравиться, как и другим обитателям. Вчера давал слегка пониженным ррм компота, водой не поливаю вообще. PS. ДОРОГИЕ ДРУЗЬЯ, было бы вам интересно и полезно видео процесса моего LST? Пишите в комментариях! Всем, Растафарай!

The End is near. Can’t wait to harvest and dry them. Next 2 Weeks I use to flush them. I think then they’re ready. I’m very proud of the purple BigBud. She’s purely looking incredible. What do you think ?

Upgraded day 21 to luxx 645 pros, absolutely love these, amazing coverage and way less heat output.

Day 10 of flower

D 68 26/03 Massive defoliation and last feed before flush

She’s been a thirstier girl more recently...been drying out every 3-4 days, 5 max. Getting real full. I’ve been putting minimal effort in due to the organic soil I decided to use, but she’s responding to everything really well.

Week 2 is cruising along, and the lady is looking strong and healthy 💪🏼. Feeding her the full Canna suite with the pH locked at 5.8 and watering every 3-4 days. Everything's on track with no major updates—next week, I'll kick off LST!"

This week unfortunately I am taking the not so good frosty gelato out of environment... Been 0% progress and not enough bud sites to keep her. One of each left - Vanilla Frosting & frosty gelato Both still looking fabulous the flower nutrients have now been removed leaving the ripen at full strength but cal mag is now half the amount Next week is start of flush week.

Moved this week so mostly just fed them. Switched to just water.

Added yellow sticky fly traps to all cubes as a preventative measure to avoid infestation of fungus gnats. So far none have been spotted. Defoliated and did a little more LST to all the plants to open up the center and give more light to lower shoots. Blue Dream 3 and Chemdawg 3 started showing some discoloration on the leaves (yellowing around the veins) and also the leaf tips curling down. Did some research and came up with this... Possible diagnosis: - Yellowing around leaf veins could be a sign of Magnesium or Iron deficiency - Leaf tip curling down could be a sign of Nitrogen Toxicity. - Both could be caused by improper ph balance in water Possible solutions: - Applied Botanicare CalMag+ as a foliar feed and added some to the reservoir. CalMag+ contains Calcium, Magnesium and Iron. - Diluted nutrients in reservoir to lower amount of nitrogen being fed to plants. Was feeding them at 1300ppm, lowered it to 1050ppm - Tested runoff and saw it was coming out at 5.4pH so I increased the pH in the reservoir to 6.0. Now the runnoff is testing at 5.7pH, meaning that my rootzone is in the optimal range of 5.5-5.8 Well wait and see how the plants react to these slight tweaks. Hopefully we start to see a nice healthy even green again.

This grow turned out to be quite a journey. Originally, this run was meant to be a simple between-grow project, something to keep the season going outdoors, without too much effort. But plans changed, and the Orange Sherbet ended up in the tent, where it took a completely different direction than expected. She grew big and strong early on, but the LST was tricky. she didn’t respond very well at first, and shaping her the way I wanted took a lot of time and patience. It was interesting to see how she stretched and filled out later, but overall, the structure stayed somewhat awkward to manage. Throughout the grow I struggled with CalMag and potassium balance. I tried several adjustments, sometimes with high CalMag doses, but it never fully stabilized. It’s still unclear if that came from the strain itself or from the BioBizz line, but it made the mid-to-late phase more difficult than I had hoped. The flowering time was also much longer than advertised. the breeder mentions around 9 weeks, but in reality this one took closer to 14–15 weeks total. What was supposed to be a quick side project turned into a long, demanding run. On the bright side, she delivered a very solid yield. a bit over 160 g of trimmed buds plus another 50 g of popcorn, well above 1 g/W. The aroma is lovely after 10 days of curing: creamy, with vanilla and a subtle orange note returning. However, the buds are airy, not as dense as I hoped. The effect and flavor are great, but visually it’s more on the average side. Even so, this grow was one of the most instructive I’ve done. I learned a lot about deficiency management, humidity control, watering and how far genetics and environment interact. Going forward, I’ll take a break from autos and focus on photoperiod strains again. I just prefer the control and predictability they offer. All in all: not my prettiest grow, but a very valuable one. About drying in dry ferm/dry age and regular drying: the material in the bags took a few days longer to dry which is said to be good (regular dry was 7 days, bags was 9 or 10). initially I think the buds from bags look better but now in curing I can't really tell a difference, not visually and not in the nose. Let's see how everything evolves over time but honestly I am not expecting it to differ a lot from regular drying.

Bonjour à tous les padawans et maîtres jedis Quel plaisir mes amis tout y est dans ce diarie ! À par le rendement 😁 mais bon ce n'était vraiment pas le but car je me suis rendu la tâche encore plus difficile en tentant l'expérience solo cup challenge avec main-lining sur une autofloraison. Merci pour tout vos compliment votre soutient et votre gentillesse. Je me suis vraiment amusé et j'ai pris beaucoup de plaisir avec ce diarie, mais j'ai surtout beaucoup appris. Que la force soit avec vous 💪

We're almost there :) The RHC#2 has developed a fantastic nose of artificial sour grape on a tropical backgroung (Mango, pineapple, lemongrass). My favorite of the run so far

Day 1 today 3/17 on wedding cheesecake auto by fastbuds. One of their newest releases I can't Express happy I am to have the opportunity to grow this :*. One orange sherbet lands at my house I'm going soak them and get that running as well. At the end of the week doing wonders :) so happy

Smells amazing, buds are greesy to the touch…serious genetics from fast buds!

Buds are now forming and also turning purple. No smell as of yet. Lots and lots of buds lets hope they get huge! Nice little plant from fastbuds as usual.

1,20m , 2,0m , 2,30m Bilden langsam blütenstände. Brauchen viel Wasser derweil. 🌳
