@einamio,One more! LOL One thing I failed to point out is that your grow is already looking way better than mine did at this point, so I bet you'll have much better end results.

@einamio,For nutes I did Cal-Mag & the 3 Fox Farm nutrients (Grow Big, Buds & Blooms and Big Bloom (all dosed according to manufactures recommendation). For soil I used 1/2 Fox Farm Ocean Forest & 1/2 Fox Farm Happy Frog. I also put in some perlite for extra drainage. I really wouldn't follow my lead on this one though, I only got 12 dried grams in the end. Just enough to show me how awesome this plant can be. I'm anxious to see how yours goes & hopefully I can learn something because I really want to grow this one again. I'm smoking it right now, I wish I could share :) Soooo good! One of these days I might post the grow. I tried to figure out how to do it but I couldn't get the pictures to upload. I'll try again when I have more time. I took daily pictures, kept a journal, etc.

@einamio, I had nothing but problems with the grow, presumably because I don't really know what I'm doing. I'm here to learn. Mine went into flower on day 31 then I harvested on day 43 of flower which was day 73 of life ( I think I forgot to say "of flower" before...big difference!). I harvested because the plants leaves looked horrible & I didn't want to risk the little bit of bud that was there. The tiny frosty buds looked great but all the leaves were dying & not in the way they do when it's the last week or two. Maybe it didn't like that I had my lights on 20hrs per day, but the rest of my plants didn't mind. I probably had the lights too close as well but my light is really heavy & I didn't have anything I could hang it from that was taller. I think the Orion F-1 is probably just not a newbie strain. The 3 that did excellent for me were Blue Cheese, Fat Banana, and Purple Punch (all from Royal Queen Seeds).

@Shelly420, thanks and no, These phenos are genetically spoken some kind of unicorns. I've had a purple queen Auto from rqs 4 years ago, that took 20 weeks til harvest, 1 sweet zz Auto this year, that took 17 weeks and the 119 Day banana started flowering, when her sisters were allmost finished...i cant rely on the given flowering Times because i run them outdoor. Its mostly 2 to 3 weeks more veg and 1 to two weeks less flowering in mid europe.. let your banana go until trichs are good. Mine will Fall Sohn because i have the first moldy Spot spotted today...

@Green_fiend, Ironically the one I am growing at this very moment has one big ass 10"-11" bud at the top with two fat round ones at the base of that bud. It's pretty comical.

@Shelly420, haha yea it's a shame I can't have my grow in the open air cos of the smell. But honestly ya grow setup do be sounding kinda interesting, I'd def give ya diary a follow if ya decide to post it
Shelly420

@Densko,Thanks! I haven't killed it yet, but the leaves are all curling up. I'm not holding out much hope. That's ok, I planted 3 other strains & they are all doing great. The RQS Purple Punch is absolutely covered in buds. This is only my 2nd grow ever so it's all a learning process.
