Bruce Banner Auto

Hi amigos! Started the season 2022 outdoor growing just yet.....I got myself 4 Bruce Banner Auto's and one free Zkittles auto this year. Plan is, one plant in my garden in a 40l pot, 2 BB's in a 20l pot which are gonna go to my sisters garden(more hours of sunlight) and 1BB ( if its gonna germinate) and 1 Zkittles auto, all by Fast Buds, are going guerilla style near my favorite fishing spot in the wild. I started this year a month earlier then normally and because of the still cold night temperatures below the 10 degrees celsius, I'll keep them in for about 3 weeks. I know you should not re-pot autoflowers, but I'll take the risk....... Got some news to for those who read my former journals, "the evil, marihuana hating, ugliest, vinegar drinking neighbour woman" has F****ked off and the whole family moved to the very north of the Netherlands🙌. We got ourself some fresh neighbours and they seem to be very nice, didn't discuss the growing yet though....😀 I'm planning to add weekly reports with pics and I got myself a Siftler box to make some kief later on. Main reason I chose Bruce Banner Auto is that Fast Buds has "smell remark" at his website for the strains. Bruce Banner came out classified as "medium"-smell, which is for an outdoor grower in the middle of the city less concern for stress in the flowering stage👌! For example, Gelato auto is classified "very strong"smell! Keep smoking guys!

First day in week 2, I hoped for a little more leafes, as soon as its has 4/5 sets I'm gonna put them in the final pots which makes me a little nervous. I checked out youtube about re-potting autoflowers and there some growers saying re-potting doesn t do much harm if you do it right.......... Well, lets hope I'll do it right😀 ! One BB came out of germination after all, so I'm growing 4 BB's and 1 Zkittles auto(this one is going guerilla style😎) Grtz from El Jardinero Hollandica (transfer to final pot on april 23)

Today first day of week 3, exciting times up here...... 3 plants repotted in the final pot, and because there autoflowers (which you shouldn't repot) they seem tobe a little in "shock" and aren't growing like they suppose too......Of course this was expected! I hope the roots start growing again soon. The weather isn't working with us, temperatures are around 14 dregrees celsius during daytime and at night even below 10 degrees, that's why I put a glass bowl over it when its getting dark. Because its also a great shelter against hard rain and snails I'll hope to do some damage controle like that. I've got 2 plants still in little cups (1 bruce banner and one zkittles), I'll probably put them in the ground guerilla style coming friday! Keep you posted grtz

No progess at all.....because of the repotting and low temps at night there seems tob be no progress at all😕 The BB's at my sisters garden seem to have less stress from repotting. Plantes 1 BB and 1 zllittles auto guerilla near my fishing spot

Appears to be root setting and extended grow!

Steady as she goes! Leaves getting very big, height still a little disapointing.......weather is just fine, lots of sun last and coming week! The guerilla planted zkittlez and BB didn't grow much in the last 2 weeks.

At last some grow (41 cm), she grew in the last week about 14 cm which gives me hope we'll be around 60 cm in week 9! The plants at my sisters garden are about the same height. We got some rain last week and it probably added some oxygen. Strange things happening with my guerilla grow, both plants don't make any branches. Same thing happened last year with my Sherbert, I suspect it's beacause or has something to do with the sandy soil.....😳 Two weeks to go till flowering!😎

Started week 8, it was a pretty cold week for the time of the year, not much grow!😐 Hope we'll get a end sprint and some height. Started to smell too since last week. It also started a little flowering. grtz😎

Week 9 started , I guess the flowering stage is knocking on the door, every branch has got white hairs. it seems the plants at my sisters garden are a little further then the one at my garden! They grew about 14 cm's this week. I'm not feeding extra or something because de Canna Pro soil contains all nutrients. On friday I will probably cut some large leaves off so the sunlight can get everywhere. I'll post some extra pics on friday and get some close ups. grtz😎👊

Entered week 10, unfortunatly my guerilla plants died, (zkittlez auto and BB auto), the selected spot didn't deliver, much to less sunlight, soil is sandy, so I have to find another spot next year in this overcrowded country I live in..... Good news is dat de BB at my garden did reach a height of 75 cm, so another 8 cm last week!💪 Flowering increasing every day! My two BB's at my sisters garden are doing allright to, , flowering great! At the end of the week I'll probably add some Plagron Bloom, just to boost the flowering! I will not do that for long period, because I like my smoke as natural as possible.

Week11 started, trimmed my plants a little more and started adding Plagrom Bloom last friday..... Sugarleaves appearing, so far so good! I declared war on caterpillars, snails and aphids, they all love my plant! Couple of weeks to go till harvest, I'll hope the buds start getting thicker! In the last week my plant started smelling stronger. I will add some more pics friday....😎

Started week 12 with my little green thc-sweater.....started flushing today,, and last week I added Plagron Bloom. There were a couple of rainy days in between and I put my plant in the barn with the door open, just to keep it dry and avoid rotting.

Final week till harvest! The buds don't devellop any more flowering. The smell is very strong at the moment, maybe because its trying to get rid of water because of the flushing. I flushed my 40 liter pot with 24 liters of water totally... Today, thuesday, i'll expect to harvest coming saturday, depending on the weather. The 2 BB's at my sisters garden seem to be a little further, the leaves are turning yellow. I;m really curious about the yield, it seems to be less then former years, but we'll see. Considering the weather forecast and the pics my sister sent me, I harvested the smallest plant in the evening of july 6! Not to soon, because 3 buds started bud rotting as appeared during inspection. The buds are sticky like a gloryhole, but it seems more leaf then flower, Let's see how it dries out!😀😎 I'm not sure what to think about the root setting.....😕

Almost there to total harvest! Plant 2 from my sisters garden harvested because of possible bud rot on the way! The smell is very very strong! The Bruce Banner in my garden will be harvested probably tommorow! Final results of all 3 plants soon in the "harvest" diary.

Compliments to Fast Buds again, 141 grams DRY weight! You keep me rollin'for quit a while! Bruce Banner auto is a thc sweating strain with many sugarleaves made out of crystal layers, above and below the leaf! The taste and high are really great with an uprising sativa effect, minty taste I love the high! I made it difficult for myself growing it, because I started this season indoors (I couldn't wait a a couple of weeks) and repotted them. There was more then 10 degrees difference between day and night temps and you could see them hold back in growth. Comparing that to my buddy's growing season, there plants are way larger in height. Because I asked for trouble, the root systems didn't appear to be developed great. Plant 2 had root rot. The smell wasn't very strong till week 10, only after giving them water the smell increased in my garden. This year is the first time I' made hash from the trim I got with my Sifterbox, that was another 7 grams of smoke from all sugarleaves! Forgot to mention, each of the 3 plants got bud rot in the end, but because of the very dry weather season this year, I didn't lose more than one bud from each plant. Great job Fast Buds, and thanx for the strain information on your website with a smell rate, it helps an outdoor grower in the city centre a lot to keep uniformed attention away!!!!
