Tried to start 2 AUTO plants for a quick turnaround compared with the photos. One sprouted beautifully and the other shot it’s root out of the soil, despite being placed correctly, and never recovered. So in addition to this AUTO, I’ll have a journal starting next week for a Banana Hammock AUTO.
Will include measurements starting in a few weeks.

Progressing, but damn I find that time moves slower when getting up and running. Went to tent sometime early in week and she had been knocked over, but adapted well. Added a bit more medium to cover the part of stem which was parallel to medium. No harm, no foul.
Will include measurements starting next week.

All is going well. Started LST this week. She is starting to shoot pistils out. Looking forward to the progress in the week to come.

She’s looking pretty. Light LST. Haven’t fed yet, but will check runoff EC next watering to see where we are at with things.

Everything is going well! She started looking a little hungry this week, so feeding has begun. Will slowly increase nute concentration.

Moving along! She’s a bit hungry, but I’ve been feeding her more and will continue to do so. Starting to smell good.

She’s getting chonky. Still showing some signs of being hungry; recent experience with my ELB diary says the run-off may be high. Will be watering with lower pH but I think we will be good to go.

Fat and smelly. Was correct on a slightly higher than desired pH; feeding with lower pH has quickly fixed that. Still hungry and getting fed more, but only 1-2 weeks left so I think we will make it.

The final countdown! She will likely be cut before the end of next week. Will update on chop day.
Photos taken 77 days after breaking soil.
Update: chop chop on day 81 (7/27/21). Harvest update coming in 4-6 weeks.
She definitely packs a punch! Unfortunately, I didn’t end up with a bountiful harvest after some aggressive LST early on stunted the plant. She was also dried at a higher temperature than preferred, thanks summer, so I think I lost some terps preventing her from being loud. Will run again at some point after learning some valuable lessons, and expect a better experience.
Grow cycle was as expected, ran the full expected time. Stunted growth kind of ruined the experience, but I learned my lessons and will run her again at a future date.
