Homegrown Cannabis Company Banana Kush

Well here we go into Week Two of Veg! 👏😎 With two weeks of initial growth behind them now, the Homegrown Cannabis Company's Banana Kush Auto's are doing great! They're up to 3" and sprouting their 4th & 5th sets of leaves which means if they keeps their growth up, LST will start soon for these girls! Thank you for following along this journey with me! Growing these beautiful cultivars is always better with someone to share the experience with....come along and enjoy! 😎🙏 ~Grown 100% organic in a 10g fabric pot with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium amended with 2tbs/g Down To Earth 4-4-4 / 2 cups/g Earthworm Castings / 1tbs/g Dr. Earth Flower Girl 2-8-4 and 1tbs/g Dr. Earth Bat Guano. ~24hr light cycle during germination / 19/5 light cycle for Veg & Flower ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed, top dressed every 3-4 weeks and weekly Compost Tea's. ~Week Two of Vegetation~ 3/8- Both of the Banana Kush girl's are rocking and rolling! I did transplant the #1 pheno from the 5g fabric pot she was in to a 10g one, then moved her from the 4x4 to the 4x8 tent with her sister who was already in a 10g fabric pot. Because of the transplant I anticipate that she'll experience a little shock which will take her a day or two to rebound from but she'll do just fine with a lot of TLC! The #2 pheno continues her growth and is sprouting her third set of leaves which will have five fingers. By weeks end she'll begin LST. I'm continuing to water twice daily with 0.25g of de-chlorinated water that is ph'd to 6.4-6.6 @ 74 degrees with an EC of 0.2-0.4. Every other day I'm adding 5ml/g of Fox Farms Wholly Mackerel and twice weekly adding 3ml/g of Botanicare CalMag+. Tomorrow they'll be getting their first Compost Tea {Wiggle Worm Castings/Alfalfa Meal/Kelp Meal/Unsulfured Molasses and a small amount of Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4 dry amendment and 1 scoop of Great White Mycorrhiza} that I started yesterday, which they'll each receive 0.5g of... They should love it!😍 I am also continuing to give them both nightly Foliar feedings via spray bottle just before their dark period with Fox Farms Flower Kiss which they are digging! The biggest challenge when growing indoors organically with 10g pots is providing just the right amount of water as you want the medium throughout the ENTIRE pot to be moist (not wet) to give the root system every opportunity to spread throughout the medium all the way to the sides and bottom (or close to it). That said, keeping up with adequate watering is a challenge, but extremely essential for optimal plant growth. With a 10g pot FILLED with a root mass you WILL get enormous results provided all other factors are kept on point....and that's the KEY! Perfect environmental conditions, proper feeding and watering, good genetics and a HUGE root system (1200ppm's of additional co2 helps a bunch too!) = Monster Cannabis!💪😎 3/10- The girls received their first Compost Tea yesterday and it looks like they loved it! (knew they would...lol!). They each got approx. 1/2g of tea fed to them gradually to allow the medium to absorb the tea. I also began LST on both girl's to get a handle on them before they get away from me as their growth is really beginning to take off! I anticipate that the #2 phenotype, even being a few days behind, will end up being the taller of the two...maybe.😏 Both girl's have great color and vigor, temp's in the Gorilla 4x8 are running 72-80 degrees with a 45-50% RH which is GTG for them right now. 😎👍 3/12- Well the girl's are 13 & 15 Days old today! Both girl's are really on a growth spurt, with the #1 phenotype approaching 4" tall, and increasing size daily. It seems as you can almost watch them grow bigger every day...crazy! They both continue to receive nightly foliar feeding with Fox Farms Flower Kiss mixed @ 5ml/g and applied just before the 5 hour dark period. Daily watering's continue with de-chlorinated water to which I've now added 5ml/g of Fox Farms Wholly Mackerel to and then ph'd to 6.4-6.6 @ 72deg. with a 0.4 EC which, when I water I soak the pots thoroughly, but not to the point of runoff. Twice a week when I water I will water just from the bottom of the pots to let the plants draw up the liquid into their pots to ensure that the medium is moist throughout for those roots to grow into! I have begun LST on the #1 phenotype based on her structure and how she was growing. I also topped the #1 pheno today to achieve a bushier plant. The HLG 650R is still hung at 40" above canopy above them and still set to 300w at the wall.. Next week I will be lowering the light down to 38" and increase the wattage to 350W at the wall. Tent temperatures are a steady 80.1 degrees thanks to my AC Infinity Cloudline T6 w/Controller, connected to a 6x24" Terrabloom carbon filter which has the capability to vary the fan speed automatically to keep tent temperatures constant....Works like a charm! 😎👍 RH in the Gorilla 4x8 is 45-50% and all fans are running now as well as the IdealAir 14k BTU A/C unit pumping in cool air. 3/14- Well there goes another week behind us on this journey to dank, sticky buds! Both pheno's are doing fantastic and putting out new growth daily! They've got incredible vigor and color...just gorgeous! The #1 pheno who's two days ahead of her sister has really reacted well to her LST and has multiple branches all reaching up to the light! She is really going to be impressive! The #2 pheno is going to be a spitting image of her sister. They both have similar structure, node spacing and visually look alike! Both of these girls are really beginning to impress me with their phenomenal growth. I can only hope that they hold off pre-flower for a couple more weeks so they can really put on some growth! They both continue to receive nightly foliar feeding with Fox Farms Flower Kiss mixed @ 5ml/g and applied just before the 5 hour dark period. Daily watering's continue with de-chlorinated water to which I've now added 5ml/g of Fox Farms Wholly Mackerel to and then ph'd to 6.4-6.6 @ 72deg. with a 0.4 EC which, when I water I soak the pots thoroughly, but not to the point of runoff. Twice a week when I water I will water just from the bottom of the pots to let the plants draw up the liquid into their pots to ensure that the medium is moist throughout for those roots to grow into! ~Thank you so much for following along so far! I hope you'll continue to follow my journey through the next weeks as things will be getting more exciting as the next weeks approach... Grow Strong! 😎🙏~
