Monster Auto Bruce Banner

Habosabin Broke ground. Day 1. 7.5 hours of direct sunlight where it sits. 20200731. This plant looks strong so far and has good progress at 7 days.

Habosabin Everything aok so far. The netting is because my cat has tried to dig around the plant.

Habosabin 20200808: aok. Looks like growth starting to pick up. Thinking of just letting it grow without training.

Habosabin 20200815: I haven’t water her in 12 days. She’s still going strong. Looking really good. I might get some spininosa and preemptive spray since I had such a difficult run with caterpillars last go. 20200819: started spraying for bugs. Leaves looks minor thrip evidence.

Habosabin 20200822: she showed on day 24.

Habosabin 20210904: still chugging along.

Habosabin 20200905: heat wave this week. Forecast 110 tomorrow. I may put her in the shade tomorrow. 20200907: heat has been over 110 for two days. Leaves crisp up on the larger fans leaves. Put in shade today.

Habosabin 20200912: smoke and ash and no sunlight this past week.

Habosabin 20200919: the heat has calmed down this week. She still doing very well. I fimmed the tops of each cola today to experiment with a technique called back building. Theory is it fattens up buds and makes for better bag appeal. We shall see.

Habosabin She's doing very well considering the heat she's been going thru. The large container helps I think. I only water once every 8 to 9 days.

Habosabin Another week with 100 degree days and hazardous air. I'm noticing an explosion of new hairs. This is my second grow so I've never seen this. I'm assuming it's some final push but have no idea what to expect in swell. No idea how long it will last. As of Friday, pistals still white. Trichomes starting to cloud. I notice the new hairs having 8 new hairs at a time which means thry still have to grow into a clump of calyxes. Proper feeding is so important. My first crop didn't swell. Underfed and stressed environmentally near the end.

Habosabin This plant has not been trained in anyway. This is her natural shape. Minus the bud swell topping to the 4 week old buds. I positively see that without this done the buds would be more pointed. The new growth seems like foxtails so genetic or heat stress? Either way still a thing of beauty. The full plant picture has an optical illusion. It's really on a table. So the fence in the background makes it look like it's 5 feet tall. 20201006. Spidermites and thrips in a small section on top section of main cola. Sprayed with fresh spinosad. Look already dead or not moving. I also discovered that spinosad batch only is good for one application. I've been using old spinosad which wasn't offering protection.

Habosabin I did do some very light lst to open up the middle canapy a bit. Buds 8 weeks in but still mostly white pistils. Breeders say 8 weeks but I think they are always 2 weeks optimistic. 10/3: found a single nanner on my main cola today. Will keep eye out for more. Was in an area where bugs were. Perhaps stress induced. I do not have spider mites. I do have aphids. Little spots here and there. I'm using tape rolled around a chopstick to pull what I can up to slow it down. Buds are much denser than I thought. Squeezed main cola. Sticky stinky fingers. Can't wait. Hoping for a quarter pound.

Habosabin 20201019: pistils are almost done turning. Trics are still lacking any amber. 1% at best. It's difficult checking trics. Plant fading.

Habosabin Monster bruce banner auto is a very good grow. It's decently large and buds are very dense. It doesn't fight aphids very well however.
