The girls are looking pretty good in this second week, i have noticed that tropicanna banana is a little bit droppy which makes me think that VPD is the problem, sometimes the temperature is around 30c and the humidity around 40% which is a stress VPD area, i will take into consideration adding an intake vent, temperatures are also pretty high outside for November.
Started adding some small doses of Iguana Juice 3-1-3 and Calmag, ppm around 400.
The next pictures will be with the lights off, I promise. 😊
The third week is now finished, the plants are looking pretty good, runtz is showing a little bit of overfert (mainly N)
I performed some topping and defoliation in order to make some room for future tops.
The fourth week is completed, plants are looking pretty good, I used to have a acidic soil which caused some nutrient lockout (mainly cal / mag) but it's now fixed.
I have some climate problems. couldn't monitor the temp / humidity in the past 4 days but will resolve them quickly in the future days, i've seen in the RH meter memory some extremes (around 80% humidity and 20 celsius temp)
They are very compact, i think i will leave them one more week in veg and then i will flip to 12/12
The fifth week of vegetation finished yesterday. This week i flipped to 12/12.
Currently feeding with around 1100 ppm, ph is 6.2.
Both plants are looking pretty nice, i have some minor calmag deficiency but that's to be expected with leds.
It's starting to get pretty crowded horizontally therefore i moved the light a little bit up in order to get some vertical growth as well.
First week of flower is completed, both plants showed their genre.
I have some minor N and Ca deficiencies which i will try to solve in the future days.
Runoff ppm : 1200 / ph: 6.3~
Plants are doing pretty good, Im feed only with calmag since the runoff ppm is around 1300.
Tropicanna Banana is starting to smell really really nice, Runtz has no specific smell yet.
Both plants are looking pretty good, runtz is starting to develop that zkitlezz smell, fruity and sour
Tropicanna Banana smells like ripe mango already
A little bit of nutrient lockout due to low ph, but this will be resolved in the future
Week 4 is finished,
I have flushed them because I have had salt buildup, now i can control the nutrient intake, Feeding with around 800-900 ppm.
Buds are starting to develop a really nice smell, tropicanna banana smells really sweet, like mango. Runtz is not sweet but sour and a little bit woody.
Week 5 completed, did some more defoliaton and lst to allow a better light penetration, buds are starting to get bigger. I've also noticed some purple on tropicanna banana leaves.
Week 6 is now finished,
Some purple can be observed on the fan leaves, runtz will finish in probably 2-3 weeks.
Tropicanna Banana is more chunky and the smell is very very nice, la ripe mangos. Runtz smell is not the special for now at least.
The girls are fading really nice, both have some purple / pink on them
The last watering was with 1000 ppm, runtz will be probably harvested in 1 week, tropicanna in 2
I will also try to decrease the temp to 17-20c to have some more purple
Week 8 completed,
According to Barney runtz should be harvested right now but i think i will leave her a few more days, the buds are throwing white pistils, I've also noticed some clear trichomes.
I harvested only a little bud to test the high, it's very potent, the first 20 minutes is energic, after this it calms down to a mellow sedative high which I prefer more.
The smell for this pheno is not phenomenal, smell just like weed nothing special. However Tropicanna Banana smells just like ripe mango, can't wait to test it.
Flowering week #9 is completed, we are now at the start of week 10.
According to barneys runtz should have been harvested 2 weeks ago but i still see a lot of clear trichomes and it also started growing some foxtail, i will leave her a few more days.
They are fading nicely ...
The 10 week of flowering will be completed in 2 days, i think i will harvest them in that respective day.
Today i opened the tent and the sunlight hit the nugs, i did some last photos with the girls.
I almost feel bad for harvesting them, they're looking so nice...
@@KaliJay_420,Thanks for the comment, the macro shots are done with a 20$ "pocket microscope" from amazon, the resolution isn't that great but we can tell that the trichomes are still developing, barney recommends harvesting runtz in week 8 of flower but i'm sitting at 10 weeks with my pheno and i can still see a lot of clear trichomes, therefore i will let it a few more days until i can see some more cloudy!
@Hydro_Hiebs, Tropicanna Banana smells like ripe mango, very very sweet, I've grew more than 20 strains in my life but i can say that this strain is the sweetest of them all. Runtz is skunkish and not that sweet, smells just like regular weed, maybe after curing some smells will surface.
