*Update*
The seedling stretched a little.
I moved the light down to 24" at 30%
Par is 300.
Germination Date 6/6/2023
Here we go!
I planted the seed in a Rapid Rooter that i planted in a small fabric pot. The soil is 80% Black Gold Starter mix and 20% FFOH and a tsp of Kelp Meal. I did this to give it a little nutes for the next 2 to 3 weeks.
She should be able to grow in that fabric pot for 2 to 3 weeks before transplanting into a 5 gallon fabric pot.
Just enough time for my organic soil to finish cooking. I am not using rabbit manure this run like I usually do. I have Fish Hydrolysate to water in if needed. Also Ill be making Banana Peel Tea for this grow to water in after the flip.
Cooking a variant of my homemade organic soil.

Shes stopped stretching. I got the light dimmer and distance perfect
24" at 50% dimmer
PAR is about 400
Added humidifier to keep it around 70% for now.
I have an Inkbird humidity controller coming in the mail.
I put 1/4 tsp of Myco+ root innoculant in 1 gal of pH 6.7 water.
I am using this during seedling and veg stage to boost root growth.

Shes starting to take off and is really smelly now. Going to be a nice plant
*Update 6/25/23
Topped her above the 5th node
Shes got nice big indica fan leaves now. Internodal spacing is tight at 450PAR
Shes starting to grow faster as well. She doubled in height in 7 days.

Slight defoliation to open the center up for light penetration and better airflow.
This girl is getting bulky and the fan leaves are fat. Hope that means fat bud lol.
Beautiful genetics especially the structure from these Bruce Banner beans from Greybeards Seed Bank.
The canopy is turning out amazing. Beautiful big dark green indica leaves with over 12 bud sites at the canopy. She loves nitrogen cause there's no yellow tips Iike has happened to 2 other plants using same homemade organic soil. Nice strong stems and stalk. She's going to love the Morbloom PK I'm giving her in flower
Removed lower leaves and small branches that were shaded.
Removed a few inner leaves that were shading the mid area under the canopy.
Watered with 6.5ph 1 gallon. She's drinking like a fish every 2 to 3 days.
SCROG net is in tent above the tomato cages as this and the 2 Fiilipino Sativas are going to stretch up to 300X
She has a very strong odor that fills the whole tent. I think she may blow out the carbon filter worse than the Alaskan Purple I grew before that was extremely smelly and got through the carbon fiter
She's stretching a bit. Light schedule has been changed last Monday.
She's maintained a wonderful square shape with minimal LST
She still drinks like a fish.
This Bruce Banner from Greybeard Seeds has an excellent structure after topping and minor LST. She filled in the gaps around her while maintaining a somewhat rectangle shape and even canopy.
I only used minor LST in veg.
She is stretching somewhat. Only 4.5 inches in 1 week. She doesn't seem to need nitrogen.
Bud sites are forming. I have to lollipop the bottom today as a couple leaves at the bottom fell off and were slightly turning yellow.
I did defoliate the canopy to allow light to mid tier bud sites.
Light schedule is at 11/13 to accommodate the natural flowering light cycle for the Filipino Kibungan Sativa in the grow tent. DLI and PAR will be adjusted upwards accordingly.
The stretching has come to a stop. 1.5 inches this week.
I'm using things to elevate the plant to keep the canopy as even as possible because the Sativa is not done stretching yet.
Everything else looks good. No deficiencies noticed.
Stretch is done. No change in height this week. Mid flower is here.
Time to juice her up some more PK next watering. Aiming for 1400ppm.
She's looking good
I made a new ScroG net to train my Sativa better. It sits just above the Bruce Banner plant.
Took a look at her and she's still throwing white pistils out all over the buds so she's still flowering and swelling.
Watering with just plain water.
She's progressing senescence. Getting a yellow reddish fall coloring now especially on the sugar leaves.
Maybe 1 more week but will be checking trichromes on a daily basis now.
Buds are nice and hard even the smaller ones.

Happy Harvest Day!
Bruce Banner Fem - Greybeard Seeds - Custom Breeder & Strain
This freebie from Greybeard Seeds did not disappoint. She has dense nugs and smelled since early veg. She was very sticky and there was 210 grams of sticky trim as well.
