Today 7/30/19, day 57 and the start of week 9. I'm still continuing to alternate between days with my pesticide treatment (especially after finding that bug living on one of hulkberries fan leaf) and thrive alive green daily foliage spray as a prophylactic solution against any possible pests or mold going into these last few dog days of veg. I will flush them with distilled ph'd water for two days this weekend in preparation for flower. Then I'll start them on some "flower fuel" bloom booster on top of my secret for success flower recipe at 1/4 of the recommended strength. Outside of that still no adverse issue to report for the end of the 8th week. After my last trim, they both have responded very nicely, I was kind of worried about fat banana stalled growth. But one thing I noticed when I topped her at the 6th node, yes the main stem stopped growing but it developed many bud sites up and down every stem. Whereas hulkberry was topped at the 8th node, she has mainly focused on developing long stems and only 2 or 3 bud sites along her stems. Even though hulkberry in structure, is much bigger than fat banana and has a way bigger root system. Fat banana is bushier and has developed way more bud sites than hulkberry. I can't tell which strain will yield the most at this point only time will tell! Also, a big shout out to "J"@RQS, thank you for the excellent customer service. Another reason why Royal Queen Seeds is top 3 in breeding!!

15.07.25. Day 53. The flowers on this one is developing quickly. These buds are fatter than anything I've grow for 2-3 weeks into flower. Amazing plant. Yes I need a better light.

Sooooo Still flushing this bad bish, tricomes are still devolpoing from what I've seen and the plant look relatively healthy still. Have flushed 3 times with just water and again added 2ml flawless finish with 1 litre and watered waiting a couple days and will flush with water again. Patiently waiting....

Got the plants out from the nursery early this year, summer 2020 is unusually warm. Grown outdoors no nutrients just tap water (about 1Gal/day) on the days with no rain... usually around noon when I can see them sag and the weather forecast doesn't predict rain for the rest of the day. I add Terpinator (30mL/Gal) when I water manually. •This week, since they're in full bloom and the weather cooperates (plants are outside and shouldn't rain for at least the next 24h) I will give them a dose of SuperThrive... 2020 was an exceptionally warm summer in Quebec. Seeded on May 20th Sprouted on May 23rd Kept in nursery (watered with tap water + B1 vitamin (3ml/L) until Transplanted outside June 16th Bloomed August 19th No Technique applied, she grows as she feels the needs. I have a Peyote Critical in a pot next to her (about 3 feet apart) and she looks the same.

This week gorilla cookies finally got the chop! She was a very fun plant to grow and she produced dense,sticky buds that have some very pretty colors to her. If you wanna impress your friends with a plant,she’s one to do it with🔥

Va tomando forma y masa los cogollos

First day went as expected. I put the paper towel in a small see-thru plastic container and put it on the table. With a bit of water and the seeds in side, the germination has now started! Day 2 no progression, moved the tray into my furnace room (pitch black and warm) Day 3 major progression. I got them out and started to prep the jiffy pellets. Shortly after I transferred the roughly half inch tarp roots with seeds into the jiffy pellets, root down, seed up, slightly covered with dirt. I soaked them in water (like a beginner i overwatered heavily knowing what I know now). I placed them back in the tray and put them at a window for light. (Note) the plan was to do outdoor so no light or tent was ordered at this point. Day 4-7 not much progression seeing as the clouds and rain showed up...

This Will be wrapping up the purple Queen and blue dream grow leaves on the purple Queen are starting to really color out as So when it's at the end of its life . Just RO water ph down to 6.8 until you get a PPM of 300. I'm going for Around about 150 100.

Been wanting to try out this auto ghost og from original sensible seeds for a while and finally got the opportunity to get one wet. I originally started this setup to compete in the solo cup challenge, but I needed something that will be minimal maintainence and doesn't require hand watering. So this is what I ended up with. I will not be entering since I know it will bring controversy, but I am going to follow the rules and treat this grow as if I am competing. I didn't want to use regular solo cups because last time I had a lot of algae growing in the root zone when I harvested. I opted to use a black light proof cup. These cups were 27 oz originally so I filled them with 16 oz of water, marked the level, then cut them down to 16 oz. I set the drain pipes about an inch from the bottom so they have a little reserve if I have pump or power issues. I know people will see the drains as a way for roots to grow out of the cup but in reality I have to keep the entire pipe free of roots or it will clog and overflow. So I am actually losing a little volume due to this. I filled the bottom inch or so of the cups with river gravel to stop the perlite from washing into the reservoir. I am running a 5 gallon reservoir with a small air pump and the plants will be getting irritated 24 hours a day from an aquarium power head pump. I set the system up to be totally self contained and easily portable. It was all built from things I had laying around other than 97¢ for the cups. I will be keeping the feed simple as always feeding maxigro and maxibloom with a couple flower boosters.

I'm about to harvest. All of these have been maintenance free.

Week 6 (27/02 - 05/03) During this week I will continue to feed the plants with Bio-grow, Bio-bloom and Top-max every other day. The two fat banana are in flowering stage by an entire week, while the blue cheese is in early stage of pre-flowering. The parameters remain unchanged with respect of the previous week: - light: 100% power, 18/6 h per day; - inkbird: 23.5°C, +1°C cooling, -3°C heating; - extractor: 50% power, 18h per day. 27/02 D35: removed a couple of lower leafs to the plants, they were a bit dry 28/02 D36: 1.5 liter of tap water each plant. Today I noticed some brown/orange spots on leaves of fat banana #1. Thanks to golden advises given to me by @GrowingGrannie, I will try to adjust nutrients in the next days. 01/03 D37: first day of recovery, sprayed leaves with tap water. 02/03 D38: second day of recovery, added 1.5ml of Bio-bloom and 1 ml of Top-max to 2.5 liters of tap water (almost 0.8 l each). 03/03 D39: third day of recovery, sprayed leaves with tap water. 04/03 D40: watering day. Added 2ml of Bio-bloom and 1ml of Top-Max to 2.5 liters of tap water. 05/03 D41: end of the week. The blue cheese has grown a lot this week reaching the taller fat banana #2. All three plants seem to be healthy.

04.08.21 gibt nicht viel zu sagen die bilder sagen mal wieder alles.......... bis zu diesem Zeitpunkt läuft immer alles ok und dann kommt mein Problem wie in jedem grow immer ab der 2ten woche der blüte ich werd wahnsinnig ich bekomm das noch irgendwann in den Griff hoffe ich zumindest hab mich für diesen grow damit abgefunden das ich wieder ein Problem habe denke mal das ich den vegi Dünger zur blüte Umleitung unter dosiert habe und jetzt mit vegi ausgleichen is glaub ich eher kontra produktiv werde mit etwas mehr blüte dünger nochmal versuchen die Pflanzen wieder etwas vitaler von der Farbe her zu bekommen aber ich glaube das wird nix mehr. Hab mir aber für die nächste Runde Gedanken gemacht und werde auf Light mix umsteigen damit ich mehr gefühl für das düngen bekomme da ich dort dauerhaft düngen kann und werde wohl auch den Dünger auswechseln,entweder alte schule mit guanokalong oder powder feeding von greenhouse seeds bin mir da noch nicht sicher muss mich mehr informieren über die Handhabung beider Dünger
