Hi everyone 😁 Welcome back in another week update! Thank you all for this amazing support on this bananas journey💚💚💚 Uploading and updating each week content on daily bassis so please revisit this diary if week not over yet. So far all going great. Girls looking very healthy and happy. Due to my short trip had to leave my 🍌💜👊 girls unsupervised for 3 days. Was stunned when opened my cabinet on the Dec 5th. Athena stretched like crazy. Good 3 inches. She better slow down as not much roof space left for her. May tie some taller branches to netting if necessary. Introducing blooming nutes for the first time this week on December 6th at smaller dosage and on the second watering as listed. Week 8 Dec 4 - Dec 10 Dec 5 Leaves tucking Dec 6 Heavier selective defoliation on both girls. Athena fully lolipopped and Xena at 75%. Watered with 8 ltr beetwen both with perfect runoofs PH 6.4. Girls were very thirsty 🤤 Dec 7-8 Just enjoying how my girls developing. Frost has landed and they are start showing colours. All is looking great. Dec 9 Second watering for this week 7 ltr beetwen both. Runoffs PH 6.4 Even with so much difrence in size of my 🍌💜👊 girls it seems that they are drinking my juice almost equally. Dec 10 Applied selective defoliation and tied 3 tallest branches of Athena to netting to avoid any potential burns on these beautiful baby colas. It's the end of the week! Thank you all again for such a great support, all the likes, dm's, comments and follows 💚💜💚💜 Stay tuned for coming week update 😁✌️💚

11.12.2025 She's nearly ready to be cut off. Everyday now I'm checking her trichomes and she has got a lot of them 😅. Most are milky and just a few are golden. So some patience and the sweet point will be reached. Her smell is citric-sweet, very individual with notes of Whiskey and fireplace. Extremely sticky and obviously promissing to be very tasty. I am so happy about my "christmas-decission" 🌸💜

The plant is thriving and has grown 50% larger compared to last week. Some of its leaves are now the size of a hand, which is surprising for me as it's my first experience growing a plant. I am hoping that it will start flowering next week. The main stem is thick and resembles a finger. The pH level is still high, but I have purchased a fan to improve ventilation during flowering. I am planning to support the next stage with easy boom, vitamins, and amino acids. There is a smell in the room, but I'm not sure if it's the expected smell or a mix with the box's fabric. I named the plant Gaza because I planted it on the day of the escalation of violence in occupied Palestinian territories, which then led to the recent developments of the conflict in the area.

8/11 -As the trends been this grow--both plants have responded very well to waterings. Im watering every other day allowing the substrate to dry out a little bit which encourages really good root growth. -I looked back to my previous grow diary to compare this grow to last at week 6 and oh boy am I blowing my old grow out of the water. Learning is a wonderful thing. -Stilts I put Cheese on seem to be working very well. Im starting to see a stretch on Cheese! Going to do some more LST to further even out the canopy. -Cream Cookies is really filling out and its undergrowth is really growing well. It's also starting to develop a strong odor! Awesome! A little bit about the nutrients: I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THESE NUTRIENTS! Not for the pH perfect technology but for how easy it is to feed my babies with these nutrients. I used to use General Hydroponics flour duo (micro and bloom) and that was such a huge pain in the ass to mix solutions. Every week would be a different ratio of both Micro and Bloom. Super confusing and really easy to screw up. This Sensi line from advanced nutrients is insanely easy. You just add an equal amount of both Grow/Bloom A+B in a specific concentration and that's it. All the necessary nutrients that the plant needs will be available for it if it needs it. It also doesn't burn my plants at all. At the beginning of my grow I was thinking of buying an TDS meter to tune the concentration of my nutrient solution. As a chemist, I felt I didn't need this as I can do the math and calculate TDS based on the species present in the concentrated nutrient solution--I never had to do this. Ive found that the best concentration to feed is around 13 mL/gal. Anything more is just too concentrated and my plants did not like it. SUPER HAPPY WITH THIS NUTRIENT LINE. LIFETIME CUSTOMER NOW. 8/14 -Both plants doing extremely well still with no issues. No Ca/Mg deficiency spots observed on any more leaves. -Canopy is getting quite thick once again-going to do defoliation this week. -Both plants are stretching like crazy--probably going to lower Cheese to encourage more of a stretch. -LST worked wonders evening out the canopy. -Cream Cookies is starting to really smell! -Going to sprout 2 more cream cookies plants this week with the hope to keep plants in a flowering rotation. The hope is to always have flowering plants under the lamp! 8/15 -Did some defoliation to create some breaks in both canopies to allow for some light to penetrate to the lower leaves -Original fan leaves started wilting and turning yellow so I trimmed them. -Trimmed lower fan leaves on Cheese: they were so big that they were blocking a huge amount of light to the newer growth. Id rather light hit the new growth than the old growth. -The differences in both plants are starting to show. There is a little satire (~30%) in Cream cookies and you can see it in the fan leaves. They just aren't as fat as cheese. Cheese fan leaves are so short and fat its really cool. Cheese is also growing a little bit shorter than cream cookies. -Makes sense since Cheese is a heavy indica auto flower while cream cookies is a indica dominant hybrid. 8/16 -Boy are both plants stretching. Lamp raised from 15 to 18 inches. -Flowering is in full swing for both plants. -Every other feeding cycle is going very well. Going to increase to 600mL next feeding. Curious to see how they'll respond. 8/17 -My last grow has all sorts of issues so I think its kind of comical that all of my entries this grow are about how nice the grow is going day by day. Really is awesome seeing the things you learn over time come to fruition. -Have three weeks of time lapse video, when you speed it up 8 times you can really see the explosive "stretching." it happens almost so quickly that it looks like the video skipped forward in time. Cant wait to post the final time lapse video at the end of the grow!

It was cold today and I don't understand why the sensor didn't trigger the Radiator. #3 Height= 38CM Dist= 38CM DLI= 28.6 The 2nd week of flower has gone well. I have tried to keep the canopy of the overall grow as level as I can, the only problem with running different strains is they all have different traits and grow at different speeds. Nearer the end of the week the weather started getting cold again so the radiator is going to be working a bit more over the next week or 2. #3 Gorilla Cookies FF is just mega, she has been stretching so much throughout the grow and has 90Deg bends all over, a snapped main, a few damages sides but not as fucked as the main and she is still doing champion. Its been hard work keeping her the level of the others but she has a shit load of space, way more then the other 2 strains.

Week 35 the diary won’t let me update the week number manually. Did a to dress feeding yesterday 7/5/25. Have been feeding every watering since I noticed yellowing leaves after my last top dress feeding. Reason being was I assumed my organic nutrients hadn’t broken down and became available. In retrospect she probably was just hungrier than the top dressed feeding. I will also feed on a 3 week schedule rather than a 4 week schedule moving forward. Additionally when I run out of Gaia Green I’m going to purchase Down to Earth to give it a whirl. I’m still tweaking my nutrients/ light setup to achieve dense great tasting buds . I moved her from the center to the right side in attempt to train her to fill more of the tent. I upped her liquid nutrient feeding lately as well to try & get her growing more rapidly. I did a heavy defoliation & retrellised her down again. About 4 days after her heavy defoliation I turned around and lollipoped her. After defoliation & lolipoping I made 18-20 cereal milk clones haphazardly to see what takes and what doesn’t with ZERO tlc. I don’t need/want the clones but i do believe it is a good practice & may come in handy after this grow. My humidistat controller has been down for atleast 2 months the VPD has been fucked this entire time. We’ve just been making do. If I would have noticed water droplets on my overlapping leaves I would have been more motivated to fix it before today. So on today I reprogrammed my humidistat controller, reinserted the humidifier for the clones sake & to regain control over tent VPD to encourage rapid growth again. Lastly considering pinching stem tops to encourage a more rapid branching to finish filling tent. RRRRREEEAAAAALLLLLYYYYYY kicking myself in the rear for allowing this plant to die 70% losing 100% of the plants mass only regrowing 50% of itself after 4 weeks of recovery. I lost SOOOOOOO much time & mass vegging this plant out. I’d be flipping this plant to flower now if i I hadn’t gotten overwhelmed. Next FEEDING 7/26. Hopefully a veg/bloom feeding if I can encourage rapid growth . I’ve really taken a SUPER LAZY APPROACH TO GROWING THIS LADY as well as all my other plants . I’m still going to be a lazy fuck for my other plants but I am going to buckle down on pouring into this plant all mu hopes and expectations to hopefully get out all those same hopes and expectations lol . If you’re enjoying this so far give us a like !

Still picking a couple leaves here and there every couple of days, they are a very bushy plant I can already see trimming is going to be fun…NOT!! Aw well. Not had much to do this week on cruise control really. Temps risen slightly higher than I’d like but after this week gonna start dimming my lights so that should sort

The final phase... Lot of wrong and lot of broken... All job is is gorgeous.. end I love teach by my wrong Everybody see my diaries I love you tell me a little comment about... I like received teach to experience people...... By my now grow call purple lush and ayawascha purple barney's seeds... My Las is only a 205watt effective... I wrong to not buy another 200w... È and the harvest is more little than 400w... But after in 2 time after I want yield 100gram?.... Whats you think about the max yield?

Light up to 70 %power. Run off was 1200ppm organic still so will feed next time for first time bloom nutes. White preflowers starting to shoot up all over the place. Will continue with a bit more lst throughout the stretch period.

week intel: its time to harvest some of plants the ones that is mature enough. indica dominant plants will done first always so we should harvest them first because my base nutrients and one of boosters was salt based, i'll do flushing this week to get some relieve to plants in the last days stresses : flushing Drought stress via watering only one time with flushing this week feeding: day 1 : i flushed them with Advanced Nutrients Flawless finish and adjusted ph day 3 : no more feeding from now on day 5 : no more feeding from now on guide of the week : i harvest in 2 parts : first i harvest top of the branches and will let the lower buds to ripe another week then ill harvest the second wave. indica dominant plants will get done 1 or 2 weeks sooner than sativa dominant plants that will often takes more than 8 weeks so be aware to harvest them sooner. my dry and cure style is this: 3 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 3 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. im happy as hell with this harvest :D.

Thats what i mean, she will need some more time then my other. I think its will be a 12 weeks harvest. But she will be fat too

Wow what a strain! The flowers are absolutely caked with trichs, making the flowers look heavily frosted. The smell is pungent and pretty dank smelling. The taste I find to be pretty mild. Where this strain stands out is the very powerful punch it packs! WOW lol this one will have you staring at a blank tv screen for 30 minutes before you remember what you were doing lol no complaints on this strain, have it growing again this run too! Thanks for following along!!! On to the next one!

This week went pretty well. I was worried about the flower stretch, and running out of room. I have a tall tent, 80" but with my huge 8" carbon filter, lighting, and automatic drain buckets I have the pots sitting on, I really only have about 48 inches of actual plant height to work with, which I originally thought would be MORE than enough room for Autoflowers, now I am not sure. This lady definitely almost doubled in size this past week. I am still on 18/6 light cycle, and feeding 6X per day in coco coir via a timer (drain to waste) with the runoff being discarded out of the tent via a gravity fed auto draining system I built. I started adding Liquid Kool Bloom this week to help the flowers start to thicken up, and I am also still using about .5 tsp per gallon of Cal Mag (for the Coco, not the plants) and dry kool bloom at about 1.5 tsp per gallon. I am keeping my EC around 1.5 and keeping my ph in a range from 5.7 to 6.2 Please let me know if you see something I am missing or should be doing better! Thanks for checking me out! Blaze on!

just a wet papertowel in a plastic bag for one day then after one day into a germination type of thin from rqs 5x Fat banana Auto Left side 3x Bubble Kush Auto Right Side

Hy guys ! Hope you all are doing well ! I am very happy finishing this week 9. The ladies are doing their way. I don't know yet if there still remain 3 or 4 weeks, it will depend. I keep in mind that I will feed them with clear water the last 2 weeks but it is not the case yet. Let's check at the end of next week ( week 10)

She stinks so much 😅 Can't wait to try her 👌

I fiori sembrano gonfiarsi come volevo, le prossime due settimane saranno fondamentali. Poi sospendo i fertilizzanti per le successive due e raccolgo. Un mesetto. Per una Tropicanna Banana una settimana in meno delle altre sicuramente
