Really good plants, very pleased with these beans, they all popped, no issue, planted straight into the soil to germinate. Took a bit longer than anticipated, but it was my first grow, and I learnt a lot about the plants and processes involved. I recommend these, but they grow super tall if you don't train them early on. Probably wouldn't be good for less than a 6ft tall tent, IMHO. I didn't train at all, and the 2 of the plants were 6ft+, and my light was touching them, which obviously wasn't good. RQS will receive my further custom for sure.

Reviews. Nutrient
Great nutrient combo, would recommend. Love the organic nature. Will be using on my next run for sure!
Good, except there were pieces of plastic, large ones too. So I'll use up the box which will last ages! However I probably won't get it again, unless there isn't any other option.
Good soil, can't complain, would recommend!
Reviews. Lamp
Life cycle is a good product to add in throughout the grow. It's great for keeping the soil healthy and it will last so long! Would recommend πŸ‘Œ

So I ended up leaving all plants in the dark tent, with tent mostly closed. I kept all plants in the dark for 15 days. Life just got a bit crazy, so I took a bit longer than anticipated. The plants dried in the pots. Didn't need to hang, which was fantastic! Trimming was much easier! I actually found it to be a little relaxing. I don't weigh wet. There's no point. The dry weight totalled 9oz. Over 1/2 a pound. That was the weight of all plants combined. So 4 in total. The Royal Critical automatic Didn't end up yielding much, as I probably chopped her a little too soon. FBP2 dry weight was 3.4 oz FBP1 dry weight was 3.1oz FBP3 dry weight was 2 oz Royal Critical dry weight was 17g (just over 1/2 an oz). All are curing well with Boveda humidity packs. 57% and 62%. My prized pheno is mostly in my 2 litre C vault. The others are all in jars. Popping all the lids, several times a day. It's pretty good product, my friends like it. I'm planning on running some indica dominant strains next, as that's more what my personal needs are. I'll have to look through the seeds I bought, and the specs.

A little bit early still, give her another 7-10 days and she will be properly ripe.

Hey guys, as suggested I'm leaving the plants for longer until I see all cloudy, possibly with a smidgen of Amber. But please help one of my colas has another set growing out! I'm freaking out bro. Why is this happening??? Thanks.

I thought about our issue for FOREVER πŸ˜‚ Looking at your diary I think your plants really started to flower around week 8/9, since it takes her 7-8 weeks to flower (according to RQS), you just now in week 16 arrived at this window. And if grow conditions weren't always perfect it may take even longer? I give mine (now week 15, but started to flower a little earlier) another week, then I'll take her down. Trichomes are mostly cloudy now, so hurry up lady! 😀

In my opinion, it's ready to pull once they are all milky (right now) and you're just starting to see some mature amber ones. Some folks wait for there to be more amber trichome heads. From what I've heard, it's more personal preference on how "sleepy" you want the effects to be from the continued degradation of THC, other cannabinoids, and terpenes into whatever compounds are responsible for that (purportedly related to THC - CBN conversion but scientifically rigorous evidence of that has not yet been seen).

Yeah, the Fat banana autoflower pics on RQS site, these pistils don't change as other strains. They seem to stay more white than 90% of other strains. Apparently I chopped the Royal Critical a bit prematurely, but this is getting a little extra.

@RavenCookiee, Yes I'm sure my condition wasn't great. Also phenos seemingly, as FBP2 is such a difference, it's much shorter, denser and generally a much better overall structure to it.

she looks like she still had some time left, this would have greatly improved the harvest. But this is a great first time grow. I rather dry in the microwave. Grind it small, put it between! kitchen towel on a plate and then one minute until it's dry enough. I hope it's a nice high! (: try to improve and make the next plant even nicer! Cheers! πŸ™

@Seedler, Hi πŸ™‚ Thanks for taking the time to message and your comment is really helpful and I will surely make some improvements, maybe with my other 3 Fat bananas. If you don't mind, how much longer would you estimate she had more left? Any help is greatly appreciated! 😊

@Seedler, Oh bro, that sucks πŸ˜• thanks for your input. How long do you estimate it could've been left for? If you don't mind answering. I was looking through the jewellers loupe, I was just about to add pics. Nevertheless we live and learn! 😊 It's all a bit overwhelming at first, I've never grown a plant of any description before and I hate gardening πŸ˜… Fingers crossed for the other 3 Fat bananas. One is looking πŸ”₯ will be watching it like a hawk! 😁
