I think I'm up to date... Been busy growing vegetables and painting walls so not had much time to take some snaps. Plants are usually watered around midnight these days.
Very impressed with the results so far :)
Starting using Bud Candy and ended up with a bottle of Bio-Heaven (instead of Bio Grow) so adding both of them - 2ml per litre... a little bit more of Bio-Heaven. Bud Candy 2/3 days then nothing for a couple of days. Does Bud Candy work? Not sure about all of them but I'm seeing some real frost on the Strawberry Banana... in fact, they're positively exploding at this point.
But... the real surprise is that the Wedding Cake Auto is an absolute tower - it's incredibly tall (on a par with photo-period) I don't think any photos would do it justice. It's not dense - but it looks like it will give a good yield. To be honest, they all do :)
Very lucky with the weather - yes, it's pushing into the 30C's but not for that long and they're getting some partial shade. A few cloudy evenings have also helped. Had hoped for a big storm today (17th June) but it never came... the plants seem to get a real boost after a big heavy downpour and that deep humidity the day after. But no such luck...
This is the first year I've bothered to look at/follow! a feeding chart - and I think there's a real difference - I've got weights from last year's harvests so it will be interesting to compare. Very happy with BioBizz so far - no signs of any damage or overfeeding, etc - the plants have looked big, strong and healthy since they went outside and found their roots.
Quite like the 'leaning tower of Ganja' (very first photo) ... iirc it's the Forbidden Runtz. I was lazy and never straightened it when I should have and it just started leaning. Incredible spread outwards on the branches - haven't seen anything like that before.
@GanjaFarmer101,
Mis 4 strawberry cumplen 8 semanas el sábado, una de ellas está apunto, con los tricomas lechosos aunque aún no hay color ámbar, seguramente mañana la corte, las otras 3 llevan por lo menos 4 o 5 días de retraso.
Hola amigo, esa weding vale parece altísima!!
Podrías decirme cuánto te mide la Strawberry banana gelato xl?
Tengo 4 y han salido bastante distintas unas de otras la verdad.
@GanjaFarmer101, Siguen sin aparecer en mi strawberry banana gelato los tricomas dorados, está cada vez más helada, llena de tricomas blancos, está en su octava semana como la tuya.

@Andrascan, Hi, I'm seriously thinking of harvesting the Strawberry Banana some time next week - so just 8 weeks (and a little bit) in total. This is really short for me, I usually go for 10 weeks minimum - but these ones have exploded. The trichomes are definitely all mostly cloudy. Strange as it may sound, this year I'm trying to go for less time rather than more. Last year I got a lot of really 'ripe' and very dark weed, so this year I'm aiming for something lighter in colour and not so heavy a smoke (although I do like heavy as well!)
Honestly, all my Strawberry Bananas really do look like they have identical bud sites - they're are all the same and very distinct. Out of all three strains, these ones are all a good match. Unlike the others.
I have your problem with the Forbidden Runtz - all 3 of them look like they're completely different strains = just like you said about the Strawberry Banana...
Ganja, eh? :)
I'll post some new photos tomorrow.
Hey! Nice grow :). I'm considering doing a run of one in a 5 gallon fabric organic setup. It would only be using 600w but it should be alright. My question is; what sort of height did these girls get to? I am very limited with what I have in terms of growth space. I'm using a 40cm x 40cm x 100cm tent so as you can imagine I have to train plants every time or only grow very short bushy plants! Any ideas about the height averages? Thanks
:) x
@TheScottishHobbit,Check out the video in the second diary for a good idea about heights. I'm 6 foot and they probably hit close to 4-5 feet (for the really tall ones)

If you're using a light (mine's all outdoors) then go with some LST and keep the canopy low, I guess?
Good luck with the grow :) I got a good yield from the Forbidden Runtz... oddly enough, I just opened a bag today! I would also really (really) rate the Strawberry Banana Gelato - crazy yield for just 7 weeks (and a day or two) Never had a plant so big/quick... and a top vape/strong.
