I put the seed in paper towel to germinate it and it popped in the normal time as you would have expected it to, however I noticed that the taproot was almost like stuck inside the seed instead of pushing the shell away it was growing in a curve inside the seed,and it hadn't popped out, by this point I can see a little sprout starting to push out from the seed. I removed the shell entirely and separated the taproot from a layer of film INSIDE the seed and popped it in the soil.. took 2 days to pop but seems to grow exactly as the other BB in other pot terminated with no issues. After 4 days of growth all is well, don't let anyone tell you you can't plant a weed seed embryo after manually removing the shell..

Stretchy to first node- maybe it needs constant flowering light distance? Slower to grow than other Bruce banner. No issues. Smooth sailing

Less steady growth than other Bruce banner., looks like it will be a smaller plant than bb1 too. Think it needs more nitrogen. Seeing the same papery feeling leaf as on other one. Genetics? Hmm. Maybe it's just the light....

this diary is a week ahead. will get in back in line soon. day 0-7 to be as week 1 not including the germ week. This banner kept much shorter than its brother. its also in a slightly shallower tub of soil so this one is flowering a bit quicker than its counterpart too. to keep it at the same height as all my others ive raised it from the floor slightly and then put the screen over top to bend the top cola. buds forming nicely now. i said fuck it. full organic feed for you.! nutes then fresh water twice then nutes again. deinking now a litre every 3 days. hardy plant but a couple white spots on the leaves... slight calmag to give prob.. end of week 5 flowering up to day 35. week 6 as of 36--> ps if anyone has a spare grow tent that they could donate me that would help a brother out ;) day 40. adjusted to normal schedule

minor N loss. buds becoming dense, drinking less. slight nute burn i think so feeding less. main buds surrounding leaves pointing up to the light like its quite happy. crystals forming now. defoliated 4-5 shitty leaves.

the back leaves continue to look like they have a mag problem i think. no doubt either me overfeeding it or simply shitty soil ph.... buds seem to have slowed a bit as a test i will be giving this just boost from now being day 61 only.. i heard most autos dont go past 85 and i could do with sorting out the nute burn... pisstake given the fatty bud still nice and green though so no nitrogen issues. *shrug* i have no idea what im doing really...

no doubt i overdid it with too much veg nutes too late and let it dry out.. back right corner of tent is a pain in the ass.. it didnt fade like the other bb and had the start of thrips munching away. if anything prob not bruces full potential... oh and given i deshelled it, it seems to have had an effect, took long to come out, wasnt so vigorous, wanted to flower real quick.. i didnt use as much soil in this pot it seems. owing to it being short i had to keep raising the canopy height, then i stuck a screen on top. one central mass of buds looked like it had grown in the dark. definitely needs to be pruned properly to allow light everywhere if you wanna keep small.
