Grow# 31- Bruce Banner Auto

Welcome back everybody! As we start the new year I decided that I would focus more on perfecting specific strains this year to get the best quality and yield that I can before moving on to any new strains. At the end of last year I got the chance to run some of the new FastBuds Premium strains which were very impressive, so impressive that I decided to give several of them another go, but this time they'll be in bigger pots and with less plants in the grow space, I'll also be testing out a new light this grow, the VIPARSPECTRA P1000 Full Spectrum LED Grow Light. For Grow # 30 I decided to go with the infamous Bruce Banner. I grew this strain at the end of last year and it ended up snapping so I cut her down, to my suprise It was some the dankest smoke I've had, so this I'm going to do everything in my power to make sure she reaches the end. Fastbuds Bruce Banner Auto is a highly productive strain; Expected to grow up to 600gr/m2 and a fierce trichome production covering the buds and all over, resulting in a beautiful hybrid with a slight Sativa dominance and a whopping 25% THC that leaves you in a motivated, calm, and stress-free vibe for hours and hours. This tall variety grows between 110-150cm and takes 10-11 weeks from seed to harvest, developing multiple flowering sites that boast bright green buds and a terpene blend of sweet, berries, and diesel that make for marvelous extractions and leaves a delicious taste coating your mouth after every hit. Now before I get started with the germination process down below will be a list of the equipment I'll be using : AC Infinity CLOUDLINE T4, Quiet 4” Inline Duct Fan with Temperature Humidity Controller AC Infinity CLOUDLAB 642 Advance Grow Tent, 4x2 AC Infinity RAXIAL S4, Inline Booster Duct Fan 4” with Speed Controller AC Infinity Flexible 4-Inch Aluminum Ducting, Heavy-Duty Four-Layer Protection, 8-Feet Long VIVOSUN 300W LED Grow Light Full Spectrum with Double Switch VIPARSPECTRA P1000 Full Spectrum LED Grow Light AC Infinity Air Carbon Filter 4" General Hydroponics pH Control Kit General Hydroponics FloraBloom 0-5-4 General Hydroponics FloraMicro 5-0-1 Botanicare Cal-Mag Plus 2-0-0 Fox Farm Happy Frog Organic Potting Soil Mix Pro Cal 3-Gallon Premium Nursery Pot 3 x 6-inch 2-Speed Desk Fan with Clip and Fully Adjustable Tilt Vicks Filter Free Cool Mist Humidifier Ruolan PH Meter ‎ Tuesday, December 28, 2021 Today I placed Bruce Banner Auto in 250 ml of water that had a ph of 6.3 to start the germination process, I also added 2 ml of hydrogen Peroxide, I'll check on it in about 18 hours (5 pm Wednesday) to see if it reached the bottom of the glass. Wednesday, December 29, 2021 This evening made 18 hours that the seed had been soaking, and after a slight tap with a spoon it sunk to the bottom of the glass. I'll come back tomorrow to see if it cracked open or if it's showing a tap root. ‎Thursday, ‎December ‎30, ‎2021 Its been over 24 hours of soaking for the seed so I went and checked on them this morning and the Bruce Banner Auto looks like it wants to crack open so we'll see what happens overnight, I also need to raise the temp just a tad bit in the area where it's being stored to germinate. ‎Saturday, ‎January ‎1, ‎2022 Early this morning I went ahead and put the seed into a paper towel and container since it had been 48 hours. The seed has cracked open and is showing a tap root also. ‎Sunday, ‎January ‎2, ‎2022 Seed was placed in soil today, the tap root was 1/2 inch . ‎Monday, ‎January ‎3, ‎2022 This afternoon while misting the ladies (ph was 6.26) I noticed that the Bruce Banner Auto peeking through and could be completely above the soil either later today or tomorrow. ‎Tuesday, ‎January ‎4, ‎2022 The Bruce Banner Auto has break through the soil, it does still have some of the shell attached. ‎ Wednesday, ‎January ‎5, ‎2022 (Day 1) I've been misting the top soil making sure it stays moist. Today was also Day 1 for the Bruce Banner Auto. ‎Friday, ‎January ‎7, ‎2022 (Day 3) For the Bruce Banner Auto, we are on Day 3 and so far so good. ‎ Saturday, ‎January ‎8, ‎2022 (Day 4) Everything is still going well for the Bruce Banner Auto which is now on Day 4, normally on by this time I'd water the seedling but I'm trying something new which just requires me to mist the top soil keeping it moist for the first 10 days. ‎Monday, ‎January ‎10, ‎2022 (Day 6) The Bruce Banner Auto is still doing well along the environment staying very stable. ‎Tuesday, ‎January ‎11, ‎2022 (Day 7) The Bruce Banner Auto is doing great as it reaches the end of it's first week. I gave it a nice mist with water that had a ph of 6.32.

‎Friday, ‎January ‎14, ‎2022 (Day 10) Hasn't been much to report over the last few days, just been misting about twice a day or whenever the topsoil is dry. ‎Sunday, ‎January ‎16, ‎2022 (Day 12) Today the plant was given it's first watering. I gave 250 ml of water that had ph of 6.32. The plant is also working on new nodes. ‎Tuesday, ‎January ‎18, ‎2022 (Day 14) Been very busy over the last few days so I haven't been very attentive as I would like, but from the looks of everything the plant is doing great though. I did notice a little yellowing on the top so I backed the lights off to about 36" inches. Also I went ahead and gave her a nice misting too which should hold her over until tomorrow, when I'll have time to water her. I also decided to clean the tent to keep everything nice and clean. Well, that's going to be all for this week guys, so until next time fellow growers and remember ..."Happy Growing" and "Free your mind one puff at a time".

Welcome Back Everybody ! This week I decided to go ahead and give this lady a feeding, at first it seemed as if she was fine but after a few days she did start showing signs that it may have been just a liitle to early probaly should waited another week, but nothing to worry about I'll just give her straight water for the next few waterings. Other than that everything seems to be right on schedule.

Welcome Back Everybody ! Over the last 7-days things have certainly changed. I started to see the affects of feeding the plant too early, but along with that she started flowering and I mean full flowering, Autoflowers can be weird like that. Since she was flowering and showing bud sites I went ahead and did some minor defoliation to help open up the canopy. Now it's time for my favorite part of my diary... "S/O TIME"!!!

Welcome Back, Guys! This week has been a rough one, I've been trying to get the plant back to health after being so inattentive a few weeks ago, but the fan leaves are not getting better at all, she is however still growing normal and has some crazy trichome product already. Hopefully, I can figure it out before it gets worse. Now it's time for my favorite part of my diary... "S/O TIME"!!!

Welcome Back fellow growers for another update on my FastBuds Bruce Banner Auto. Over the course of this week, things have taken a turn, and a not-so-good one at that. I've been noticing some issues on the leaves over the last few weeks and have been trying to address them but I really haven't had the time, until now. I got in the garden and did some serious investigating from checking light distance, old diaries, ph run-off and all, and what I found out is that due to me not being so attentive the plant was too close to lights, along with my ph pen being out of calibration, thank god for my GHE PH drops otherwise I wouldn't have known it was off, I also found out it has been way too cold for them at night, which is causing some issues too. Even though all this is going on the plants is still growing quite well, the leaves just look like crap. I'm starting to see some crazy trichome production in which this strain is known and which is what led me to grow it in the first place. Now it's time for my favorite part of my diary... "S/O TIME"!!!

Welcome Back fellow growers for another update on my FastBuds Bruce Banner Auto. The smell and frost on this one are crazy and she still has some time to go. I'm excited for this one to finish due to her breaking the last time I grew her, that won't be happening this time. Lol. I gave her a final defoliation this week, basically ridding her of any dying leaves and bigger fan leaves since she's getting close to the end. Well, that's going to be all for this week so until next time fellow growers, and remember ... "Happy Growing" and "Free your mind one puff at a time".

Welcome Back fellow growers for another update on my FastBuds Bruce Banner Auto. This lady is getting closer and closer to the end. This week she got her last feeding and then after that, it's just water until the trichomes are where I like them to be. The smell is amazing I can't wait to try this one looking at the frost alone is hypnotizing. Well, that's going to be all for this week so until next time fellow growers, and remember ... "Happy Growing" and "Free your mind one puff at a time".

Very happy how this one turned out, after I had issues last time I grew it. It has the amazing smell you're looking for, very dense buds, and some crazy trichomes, making it super frosty! FastBuds never disappoints, this strain will always be one I would recommend.
