πThe seeds were gifted to me by FB rep. I didnt ask for the seeds, they asked me to grow them. Very grateful for the opportunity to grow some of the most popular seeds out there. To start the germination process I placed the seed in a small glass with a solution of pure water (98% pure 6micro-siemens) with H2O2. After 12 hours the tap root had emerged from the shell. I then placed it into a black plastic container with a cellulose towel soaked in the H2O2 solution. After 24hrs the tap root was 1/4" and was then placed into the media. It emerged on day 6. On day 7 it is still emerging and about to open its cotyledons.
πI have a 4x4 tent. I will be using a dim-able led light set at 150w for now. It will be increased to its max of 200 as it started to flourish. The plant will be in a 3 gallon cloth pot. 80% coco coir with 20% clay pebbles. I have a layer of clay pebbles on the surface to prevent erosion from watering. I prepped the media by rinsing the coco with de-chlorinated water. I use a carbon tank to de-chlorinate the water. Once in the pots I use RO water fortified with Ca/mag. I measure the run-off to make sure the media is buffered and most of the salt has been rinsed out. After placing the germinating seed into the media I dampen the area around the seed with the seedling mix solution of General Hydroponics drain to waste mix chart (no longer published).
Thanks so much for running this diary! We can't wait to see how your Strawberry Banana Auto turns out for you!! Happy growing!!π¨βπΎπ²βπππ
@HippyHemulen, Thanks Buddy! I am enjoying it! I was slow at posting the harvest so it's at 7 months, which is prime for cure. It's truly phenomenally delicious and ass kicking!
@Weird_Jimmy, haha. Yeah. I was like. "Hmm".. but you can see she just took to an explosive growth. Was your temp changes above 6-7c from lights on-off. Doesn't look like excess stretching though. She has a lot of girt. Just a touch of luck & good growing methods and nutrients/ light / and co2 making for top performance.
Enjoy your grow pal. Look forward to seen the end result.
@gottagrowsometime, Thank you for taking to time to look at my grow. This plant had explosive growth almost all the way through, but especially that week. When I made that entry I had to double check myself to make sure I hadnt spaced out a week.
I've got 10 plants in 2 4x4 tents.
3x Strawberry Bananas
2x Strawberry Gorillas
1x Tropicana Cookies
4x Mephisto Mango Smile.
