1st time grower Autoflowers

Archieballs No photos of week one but Skywalker Haze has been consistently slower than Banana Blaze as well the stalk has been thiner. Started taking pics during week 2 the photos uploaded are at the start of week 2.

Archieballs Moved to feeding .5 liters every other day wondering if they are still be watered too much. Any advice would be appreciated as this is the first time we have grown.

Archieballs Noticed a bit of curling in the leaves and some spots thinking its windburn. We have repositioned the oscillating fan and waiting to see if that will help. There also seems to be a bit of discoloration on the Skywalker Haze, not sure what’s happening there.

Archieballs Started ponytailing both Banana’s to get light to her lower buds for 6 hours at a time. Did more LST to the branches and main stem removed a few leaves and tucking what can be tucked. The bananas appear to both be in pre flower and they are all handling LST very well.

Archieballs Changed watering to every 5 days water until runoff they seem to enjoy it. Signs of Thrips I believe so sprayed them with neem type spray hoping that does the job. Continued with LST and ponytailing. Defoliated a very small amount. Hoping that both Banana’s go into flower next week.

Archieballs We have treated for Thrips. All are in flower but #1 is about a week ahead of the others. Banana #2 seems to have some curling of the leaves which is a bit concerning and not sure what’s causing it. PH is between 6.0 and 6.5. Watering to run off which is about 3 liters every 4th day or when pots are light. Feeding every other water. If anyone has any ideas about Banana #2 we would welcome any advice.

Archieballs All the plants are doing well. Banana #1 is definitely ahead of the others in her flower but the other two are coming along these are all taken on day 48. They are averaging a growth of 2 cm a day in growth. We have changed them the last two weeks to 18/6 lighting and it seems to be helping them in general. The last two watering they received no food as we felt we had been giving them too much nutrients and wanted to give them a wee break. They will be fed tomorrow. Still not sure what the yellow spots on the leaves are but I think it’s something to do with the nutrients they received, I had thought it was lack of Cal/Mag but no one else thought so. They have never been given Cal/Mag before.

Archieballs All plants looking good. The Flower nodes are getting closer. They are getting watered about every 4 days depending if the pots are light. When watered they are taking about 4 1/2 liters until there is any run of.

Archieballs All in flower Banana #1 is just starting to put on a bit of weight and showing some amber. Banana ! Will be the first to harvest I think Banana #2 and Skywalker are 1 week behind her. As the end is in site starting to prepare the next grow which will be All Dutch Passion again Auto Ultimate, Auto Daiquiri Lime and Auto Mazar.

Archieballs All doing well added a bigger dehumidifier on day 68. Fed them day 68 will be last feeding for Banana #1 her trichomes are clear nearing cloudy.

Archieballs All looking good. Banana #1 is starting to put on more weight. #2 and Haze nodes are coming closer together. The smell is intense. All 3 got ph water as needed about 4.5 liters until runoff.

Archieballs Harvested Banana #1 she had stopped growing and her trichomes were ready her wet weight was 184 grams and dry weight 53 grams. Banana #2 and Skywalker are still going they are on water only from here on. They both got 5 liters of ph water on day 80.

Archieballs Both plants are looking good. Trichomes still not completely cloudy but giving nothing but PH water so that as soon as trichomes are right they can be harvested.

Archieballs Not a great yielding plant bit this being our first grow I’m not surprised. I think we initially overwatered and stunted her yield but lessons learned. We also overfed her initially as we fed with every water at full amount recommended all these led to a small yield with a lot of popcorn. She’s still drying so will update dry weight when done. On day 94.

Archieballs She started much slower then Banana Blaze but she really took off!!!! Her bud structure was much better than Banana Blaze. Haven’t tried her yet as she is still drying so will have to update Gaste and dry weight.
