4 weeks in . I decided to main line a few plants including the banana purple punch. I also have gelato and papaya cookies mainlined but only doing 1 plant dairy.
Really pleased with the results get all the work done early and you can leave the plant to do it'd thing. I followed a guide by Nugbuckets will link below highly recommend. Hopefully some fat colars from this!

Growing like mad now these. I have been using the Advanced nutrients auto chart feed. Removed all leaves and growth below the main nodes which where topped and mainline. Loads of airflow now no chance of any mould.
Humidity lowered to around 55 - 60
Looking mint atm, some slight nutrient deficiency I think. Will use some sensi cal mag and see how they are.
Defoilated again removing growth below main nodes to create good air flow and concentrate on big buds at the top. Can see some white hairs coming through , should be in flower now so time to lower humidity slightly and increase the light intensity.
Can't wait to see them buds
Switched these to 18 hrs light now 😎
Mainlining has worked really well just need to get the colas a bit more spaced out but stems feel like they would snap atm will slowly work it at lol.
Noticed some yellowing on the leaves and added some more cal mag to nutrients and to apply some to the leaves at night time, been spraying the leaves every couple of nights and watered with more calmag she shud improve this week.
Nice pistils coming through 👌 she's defo getting ready to blooooom 🌴🌴
Few of them are a week behind I think so I've had to make separate nute mix.
Also did some defoilation and lollypop the plants, got rid of any thing not getting enough light to concentrate more on the top
Very happy with results of the mainlining and LST , clean and no clutter.
Can't believe the purple coming through on one atm 🤑🧐 lol looks mad!! Hopefully a few more purple dominant phenomes on others now.
Leaves were looking a bit yellow and pale last week I've been giving some extra cal mag and bud factor X see if she improves.
Also found out my PH was off by abit was at 7.47 when I checked. Didn't know that My PH pen was uncalibrated the whole time. Bought some salts and corrected it so we're all good
Theyve all had feed of the fresh ph and nutes , hopefully bring some darker colour back to it.
Can't stop peeping in the tent 👀
WEEK 8
These banana purple are looking 🔥🔥
2 plants now starting to show that amazing purple colour 1 more is also coming along with some hints. I will be buzzing if they all go purple lol.
Had some issues with PH last week so they have had fresh nutes and adjusted PH to 6.5 now. It was on 7.5 because of uncalibrated pen.
Sticking to the advanced nutrient feeding chart for autoflowers atm
I may do a week flush yet just to get rid of any excess buildup and start again on bloom and boosters.
A couple of these are behind by a couple of weeks I think. I took off a few more leaves that were barely getting and light and a few nodes at the bottom. Just to keep that airflow going between stems and the top.
The Rest are powering through it! So no more defoilation on the late ones💪
Buzzing with results so far!
Update next week 👊
Purple looks mad
Smell is getting strong now lemon and sour smell very gassy 🔥🔥
Reduced temperature abit this week as 1 looking abit burnt
The size of that purple punch atm wow
I accidently snapped of a main cola just before flower doing lst so now the plant has just 3 mains and i think its focused all its power into them only and fattened up like mad lol
Few more weeks left on a couple of them.
Buzzing 🎅🤠🎅
👌👍👽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You can honestly smell the purple!!! Lmao 🤣
2 weeks left on a couple of these and bit longer on the rest.
Frost all over the first mainlined banana
Trichomes nearly there still wanting to be abit cloudier,
Started on Advanced Nutrients Overdrive this week then should be flushing next week or 2
Smell is amazing, one smells like skittles, unreal🙌🔥
Not long now
Can't believe these now absolutley smashing it. Think it's another week of Overdrive for a few of them and then flushing. There is one that developed some black spots which I think is potassium deficiency. Other than that the rest are doing amazing under the Spider Farmer and Advanced Nutrients.
The Purple is crazy really don't wanna chop it down become attached haha
Smells like blackcurrant fruit punch omg
Unreal . One smells like giant bag of skittles fruity as hell man!
2 weeks maybe and she done
💪👽
🔥🔥🔥 week 12 smashing it!
I am flushing the main lined plant, the thai stick looking one and the big purple this week !
2 plants just on Overdrive and bloom for 1 more week or 2 then onto the flushing
The colours on the leaves of the main line plant almost have a blue and gold tone to them, mad! buds are frosty!
Buzzing with these autos! 🙌👊🔥
Crazy colours
Will update soon
👽👍
3 bpp been in dark period for 3 days last week to try and push out bit more resin and thc , heard it can slightly increase both by stressing the plant of light in final stage before chop. So she is all
Flushed, chopped and drying this week
👌😎🔥🔥🔥
Finally
2 more on Overdrive 2ml pl and next onto the flushing. Had to tie 1 plant to the tent because of the weight of colas. The plant literally looked like it was on drugs doing a full curve lol and about to snap! Will be flushing this week
Other big bpp in 7 gallon is still going mad! Hench nuggies and smells amazing! 🙌
Waiting now for the leaves to turn yellow and then we're into flushing stage ....for a second time.
Update 29/01/25
Drying tent has been at around 65-68 humidity and 20degrees
I've taken most big leaves of now and left buds covered abit with small leaves for abit of protection and slow the drying down abit. Aiming for 7-10 days slow as possible for best results and retain the weight!
So tempted to try one now but it Will ruin it
Not long now
💨💨💨
HARVEST TIME!!! 👨🌾✂️
ALL 5 Banana purple have been chopped trimmed and now curing in grove bags! Drying took around 11 days so perfect. Dry Tent was around 19 - 21 degrees 60% humidity
🍌🍇🥊🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Dry Weight
Mainline banana purple - 47.82 gram
Thai stick looking one bpp - 54.03 gram
BIG MOMMA Purple - 49.96 gram
7gallon banana Purple - 50.55gram
Tall Banana purple - 61.05gram ( we have a winner 🏆 )
So happy with results.
If I hadn't done any mainlining or anything we might have pushed 60gram+ from them all.
I probably won't be doing the main line technique on banana purple again and will just let them go mad as it looks like a 7-10 gram difference in untrained and trained plants. Think I stressed them Bit too much on a couple of them maybe light or nutrients
Didn't know about foxtailing until this week when i read about , it hapend on both purples hopefully doesn't effect potency that much.
Got a big bag of trim after using spiderfarmer Bowl trimmer ✂️ will try make butter or something lol
Smell is! Literally blackcurrant fruit juice with a hint of foam sweets 😋 tried some that has cured abit and was good taste is all there yet but couch lock straight to sleep 👌
See how long it lasts haha
