Today I've finally received the start kit box from Green House directly from Amsterdam because I was selected as grower to join the "Trip to Amsterdam by Green House Seeds" => challenge! :-) I'm very proud of that! :-P
As my choose I received 5 BANANA KRUMBLE and I'll grow them outside the balcony and of course I will implement the mainlining technique that I love too much and it is the best indicated for outdoor and feminized plant! :-D
In the box there're enhancers and nutrients. I will mix the nutrient: BioGrow with my very poor soil, so I'll use the dosage indicated on the package: 3g/L of soil, this means 3*12= 36 ==> 40 grams! :) And for a couple of day I'll put the seed into a glass of water with the Enhancer inside, here I'll use 1gr/L of product.
I wish to all other participants a big good luck and thanks again to GHSC for this opportunity! :)
23.04.2020 19:30 - seeds went down into the deep dark.... I'll leave there for a couple of days and then I'll move into the soil.
24.04.2020 20:00 - still no news a couple of air bubbles appears on the seed. I changed with tap water in the morning (7:00 about).
25.04.2020 20:00 - air bubbles disappeared.
26.04.2020 10:00 - a very little white root appears.
26.04.2020 16:00 - I activated the soil + nutrients watering it.
27.04.2020 08:00 - still very little, I'll wait tomorrow before move it into the soil.
27.04.2020 16:00 - I changed idea because I've seen some green coming from the seed and I decide to plant into the soil right now. I hope it will come up soon. Fingers crossed.
28.04.2020/29.04.2020 10:30 - no news yet from the pot outside the balcony, today is rainy I hope it will boot-up something.
30.04.2020 15:00 - It's never easy! this morning I've seen the seed out of the soil, but it seems to be anchored, I hope tomorrow I'll see some leaves too. :) 😓
01.05.2020 15:00 - Now leaves at all...no green...bah!
02.05.2020 10:30 - slowly but it's coming! :-)
03.05.2020 15:40 - Finally it is born completely, after exactly 11 days.
09.05.2020 10'00 ,- I've watered with the enhancer.
No feeding this week as from instruction.
19.05.2020 - 19:00 I've watered with tap water. It's nice to see that this nutrients from the Green House maintains the soil sufficient mostly, I guess they are very good if you can't water very often and you don't have any automation. Also for beginners, when it's easy to kill a plant with a wrong watering, I guess mixing your soil with BioGrow from Green House Feeding can help to don't water at all for at least the first 7-10 days time sufficient to have a baby already formed and ready to point high. For the rest I still see a quiet and constant growing.
23.05.2020 - 10:00 - I've added Green House Feeding - the enhancer, directly on the soil and then I've watered with tap water.
Let's start another vegetative week. This morning I've added some other soil to the pot, for the rest everything is quiet and growing is constant.
25.05.2020 17:00 - I've transplanted in a new pot (30 liter).
26.05.2020 17:00 - Starting to train a little bit.
29.05.2020 17:00 - I did mainline for the first time and saved 5 clones.
29.05.2020 17:00 - How to clone: prepare cubes and soak them into a water solution made by BioGrow and Enhancer, cut a little branch, soak it into the solution and put it into a cube. See some pictures.
30.05.2020 07:30 - no stress at all after mainlining.
30.05.2020 - 17:00 - I've watered with tap water.
Another vegetative week is starting, fingers crossed.
01.06.2020 - 13:30 - Mist clones:
Clones were little bit dried and I decide to go with foliar spray. To prepare it I used fresh water from a fountain and Green House Feeding - Enhancer in a very small dosage (less than 1.5 milligrams in 200ml of water). Attached some photos to see the final solution.
02.06.2020 - 16:30 - Mist clones.
03.06.2020 - 06:30 - bad news this morning! :-( The mother plant had the left branch broken and I was forced to bandage it with adhesive tape! :'-( I hope she will recover, otherwise
I've to keep free the right branch and start again from the first cut, but I'll lose some time more. Fingers crossed and let's see what will happen today with the sun.
04.06.2020 - 08:30 - Slow growing on the left, of course with 3/4 of arm completely cut! :-O But still alive, come on...today it's raining! :-) Clones => I've used the spray with the enhancer on leaves and watered with soft water roots. Fingers crossed.
06.06.2020 - 15:00 - LST & Patch. Enhancer for the mother plant by root and for clones by leaves. Defoliation for clones.
08.06.2020 - Branch broken is getting better, but there is a little gap in growing with the other. I'll try to compensate it next time when I'll have to trim again for mainlining.
07:30 - I've watered with the enhancer and by spray clones.
10.06.2020 - 07:30 - I've watered with the enhancer and by spray clones.
12.06.2020 - 05:00 - 1D is died or well she never rooted.
13.06.2020 - 05:30. - LST for mother plant.
13.06.2020 - 11:00 - I've added BioGrow and Enhancer directly into the soil and then watered.
13.06.2020 - 18:00 - I removed the patch and fixed the scratch with soil mixed with BioGrow and Enhancer.
15.06.2020 - next mainling cut is coming....
15.06.2020 - clone: #1C is died, never rooted.
15.06.2020 - 11:00 - I started to cut the plant, this time it will be not a full mainlining because 1 branch is still behind the other and it is rushing to recover time and centimetres so let give her the time! :-) Today I prepared 4 clones: #2A, #2C, #2D, #2F. Fingers crossed for them. #1E was the first to root and start to grow, as general roles wants, the first to root are the first from bottom of the mother plant! :-)
16.06.2020 - 08:00 - no stress at all after an half-mainlining.
16.06.2020 - 16:00 - I did LST on the helfy branch for new branches, tomorrow you'll see in the daily photo. I've moved clones #1 outside the balcony, #2 still relaxing in the propagator, tomorrow morning I'll spray then with the enhancer and probably I'll do other 2 cuttings. Fingers crossed.
17.06.2020 - 07:00 - I did other 3 clones #2B, #2G and #2H and sprayed the others with Enhancer.
18.06.2020 - 15:00 - I did a little bit of LST.
19.06.2020 - 08:30 - I'm going to cut another clone #2M.
22.06.2020 - quiet growing.
24.06.2020 - today I finally completed the second round of cutting for mainlining, of course I did LST and watered with soft water. Clone #2B is dead and probably the other will follow soon :-( apparently this strain doesn't look ok for cloning, but I'll continue to investigate to find a good way to clone her.
27.06.2020 - 05:00 -
Clones:
many clones are going... But 1 is officially healthy (#1E) since a couple of days and it looks very nice! :-) summarizing, they don'ts like the Enhancer, they a little bit like saliva and nothing else, as last attempt since a couple of days I'm trying in the dark (22°C and 75% humidity) inside a glass with soft water and nothing else, let's see.
Mother plant:
Today is 8 months and the plan is to feed over soil with BioGrow and then water with soft water, because actually the soil was arid 1 week ago already, but I'll follow the instructions. Btv BioGrow seems to work very well, the plant until now, never presented disconforts and the soil was always rich with a great water retain in the first 5-6 months. So today probably I'll go with 40 grams and 2 liters of water with a bit of Enhancer. About this, unfortunately it didn't worked to soak the seed, it slowed down a lot the normal process (you can check tests on my first week), it didn't worked as foliar spray: clones die very soon, I've also try to soak only the cubic, but the end result was the same. With the mother plant, she was happy to don't receive it by spray, but I guess she appreciate it mixed with the water only. Let's see in the blooming stage.
29.06.2020 - quiet growing.
30.06.2020 -
Clones, I still have alive:
#1E, rooted and growing in pot.
#2G, #2H => still in the cubics / propagator, no roots at all.
#2E, #2M => still in the water and no roots.
14:00 - I produced other clones: #3Q, #3R, #3U, #3V. See the new map and the old maps updated.
01.07.2020 - 13:00 - I made other clones: #3C, #3D, #3I, #3P.
02.07.2020 - 10:00 - I made other clones and almost completed the third cut: #3A, #3B, #3G, #3H, #3L, #3O, #3S, #3T.
04.07.2020 - I donated 4 clones to a friend, bye bye #3D, #3V, #3H and #3O...good luck.
05.07.2020 - 09:30 - I've watered with the enhancer.
06.07.2020 - 09:30 - I completed the third family clones and main-lining is finally completed. I made: #3E, #3F, #3N and #3M.
08.07.2020 - 10:00 - I've transplanted #1E into a 6l pot and I moved it into the box to push to bloom! :-)
20.07.2020 - Quiet growing.
21.07.2020 - 15:00 - I've watered with tap water, after many days without! I personally think that this: BIOGROW is something magic and it works very great. Since weeks now I'm not using the enhancer at all, but I'll give it another chance in the blooming staging that I think it's coming.
Since 1 week I pushed blooming already #1E (the only clone that growed, the rest is almost died) and it seems that the banana doesn't stretch, but I just completed the first week in blooming, let's see what will come soon.
23.07.2020 - 1 nice picture of #1E (clone) blooming.
25.07.2020 - 07:30 - I've watered with the enhancer.
27.07.2020 - quiet growing & blooming. 2nd bloom week for #1E.
31.07.2020 - 08:00 - I added nutrients BioBloom on the ground and watered with soft water.
03.08.2020 - I've finally decided the last plan for the mother plant, I'll leave she like she's now, so no other cuts and main-lining. The reason is because the clone didn't stretch in flowering and I would like to have a minimum of space more so I'll let the plant grows vertical waiting for the first signal of flowering that it should happen soon.
For the clone #1E is starting the third week of blooming. Fingers crossed.
07.08.2020 - 07:00 - the mother plant is started to bloom. Fingers crossed for the next final weeks.
09.08.2020 - 08:00 - I've watered with nutrients enhancer for the mother plant and bio bloom for the clone.
17.08.2020 - Quiet blooming. 5th bloom week for #1E.
19.08.2020 - I've added BioBloom at the #1E pot. She loves it I guess and I love as well because is really impressive how it works alone with less iteration and less watering. No stress at all and until now the plant was and it is always green. I still haven't seen yet any deficiency, great job to Green House Feeding. The mother plant is like a panzer... :)
24.08.2020 - Quiet blooming. 6th bloom week for #1E.
25.08.2020 - 17:00 - I've pruned the clone in particular the strange extension I got from the main cola. It doesn't matter because it was pretty good as tea! Enjoy me growers, this tea is amazing a lot of fresh flowers are in there! :-) I can't feel yet thc, but it's pretty tasty and pungent on the lips and tongue.
28.08.2020 - 18:00 - I've added on the ground and watered with BioBloom and Enhancer.
31.08.2020 - 7th bloom week for the clone #1E.
31.08.2020 - 14:30 - It's a nice blooming, but this morning I noticed some branches with violet color on the mother plant, I supposed she's hungry and I've added another little bit of BioBloom on the ground and watered with 1 litre of soft water and a little dosage of the Enhancer. I hope tomorrow morning everything will look nice again. But I don't think I've to worry about that, because last 2 days we got a really bad weather with a lot of rain and temperature between 10-18 degrees Celsius. Today and next days is getting better and this double feeding I hope will be sufficient o recover health and move further. Fingers crossed.
03.09.2020 - I'll go on vacations.
15.09.2020 - Quiet blooming - 9th bloom week for the clone #1E. I've feeded with BioBloom and watered with the enhancer.
16.09.2020 - LST and defoliation today for the mother plant.
17.09.2020 - I defoliated the mother plan. #1E goes in reveg I'll keep there like it is, the important thing is that I've seen the flower and I can prevent some issues. I hope not, fingers crossed until the end.
18.09.2020 - 05:00 - Big defoliation for the mother plant.
21.09.2020 - Nice blooming. 10th bloom week for the clone.
22.09.2020 - I've watered with the Enhancer.
24.09.2020 - 17:00 - I started to harvest the clone, there is a lot of work to do, but the smell is beautiful, I love this strain already! :-)
26.09.2020 - 14:00 - I've watered with the Enhancer.
16:00 - I've cleaned up the clone and I'll leave it there until the harvest.
28.09.2020 - nice blooming. 11th bloom week for the clone.
01.10.2020 - 19:30 - Another significant defoliation.
02.10.2020 - 14:00 - I've watered and dressed on top the last 2 packets of BioBloom and Enhancer. Since today no nutrients at all, only water to flush slowly all residual from roots.
18:00 - I go on holiday for another week, talk you next time probably on 12.10.
19.10.2020 - Nice blooming the mother plants is turning on violet, she is going to be beautiful as per her clones (nice picture today only).
14th bloom week for the clone.
25.10.2020 - flush with soft water.
26.10.2020 - very nice and violet blooming. 15th bloom week for the clone.
- some nice pictures in the dark with flash.
27.10.2020 - #1E is getting violet, some nice pictures.
28.10.2020 - some nice pictures.
31.10.2020 - some nice pictures of the mother plant.
02.11.2020 - very close to the end, let's see...16th bloom week for the clone.
03.11.2020 - The weather outside is very bad and the box is so little for this monster! :-)
06.11.2020 - 15:00 - I started to harvest now, it will be long ... :-) I guess I need a couple of days...
06.11.2020 - 18:00 - Some nice pictures.
09.11.2020 - harvesting still on progress on the mother plant...17th bloom week for the clone.
11.11.2020 - I'm still harvesting the mother plant, next in the list the clone! :-)
14.11.2020 - the harvest is finished, finally! :-) I've a sea of purple in the pot! Nice score, great plant, funny colour, persistent parfum, intense taste... An unforgettable fire: Banana Krumble Green House Seeds!! Complements guys you did a really perfect work. I'll not create now the harvest page because I don't want to submit the diary yet, I'll first cure the "gold" and then I'll go with the final page. Up to now enjoy the new pictures, I hope to receive a lot of feedback, questions from you guys. Fingers crossed until the end and talk you soon. Have a nice weekend.
Scissors are clean now, let's try the hashish too! :-)
18.11.2020 - I start to cure today, this is the plan:
1th week : open the jar 3 times per day for 1-2 minutes,
2th week : open the jar 2 times per day for 1-2 minutes,
3th week : open the jar 1 times per day for 4-5 minutes,
4th week : open the jar every 3 days for 1-2 minutes.
25.11.2020 - First curing week ended perfectly, a lot of coffee smell is coming out from the jar, it is amazing! :-) Let's go with the second week plan:
2th week : open the jar 2 times per day for 1-2 minutes, I'll open it in the morning and in the evening. Talk you next week and next see which terpene will come up next time! ;-)
26.11.2020 - I tried today for the first time this Banana Krumble and it's very strong! :-)
