Beginning of week..
So I went ahead and did a late defoliation.. humidity is sitting too high in the tent.. its been around 50 - 55 % RH but it does sometimes get up to 60% RH.. removing some of these leaves should help lower the RH AND lower the chances of getting mold.. these are gonna be some fat colas.. and those are the ones mold can creep up on.. doing my best.. dehumidifier just cant keep up.. but I also dont run it inside the tent due to the heat that thing and it's transformer give off when it runs for over 24 hours or so.. but she shouldn't mold.. I've got 3 fans inside just moving air.. but of course, sometimes that isn't enough.. but we will see how this goes.. may even add another fan.. keep it on the floor of the tent an point it up.. we shall see! But damn she smells so amazing.. i can smell alot of similarities from the Mandarin Cookies in here.. which also has Mandarin Sunset as a mother.. just as this one does.. but you can smell the skunk along with it.. but not as powerful as the citrus.. aw man the citrus.. love that shit.. I even chewed on a trichome covered fan leaf.. very delicious! So glad I have 9 more of this strain and a few others from ETHOS.. next run may be some Aura Genetix.. I've gotta see what fast versions are all about.. I bougt some of the Peach Bellini.. should be pretty epic.. keep an eye out for that diary after this one!
Mid week..
Lower branches are getting plenty of light after the defoliation. The smell is getting intense. My carbon filter has began to smell like shit lol. Not literally.. but it stinks.. maybe like rotten skunk or something.. I've ordered a new one but I took that smelly one off for now.. so the whole block smells like member berries right now till the new filter comes in.. tomorrow. I couldn't figure out what the smell was untill i accidentally got my face into the exhaust fan wind.. smelled like rotten skunky shit.. lol. I guess I forgot things need to be changed out every so often.. just figured "air" running thru it wouldn't make it crap out so fast. Been maybe 8 - 12 months.. something like that. Never used one before this.. but running some ETHOS, it is a must! So citrusy! Purples are slowly coming in. She really reminds me of the Mandarin Cookies I grew.. but I also think the Mandarin Cookies was heavier on the Mandarin Sunset phenotype side.. and this one is pretty similar. Scent, growth, stretch.. but I know I cant say for sure that's what it is.. this is just what I believe is going on. But wow.. such a beautiful plant.. I've had to run a a few twist ties to other branches in order to keep them from flopping over, leaning on eachother and the sides of the tent.. should have scrogged I guess lol.. live and learn tho.. but so far its not too bad.. but this early on shows me what I might have to be dealing with in the next couple of weeks cuz they are beginning to get STACKED! I've said it before, and I'll say it again... ETHOS for the win 🏆
Later that day...
Wow.. going back in again and now she smells just like the Early Lemon Berry! Wth! How is that even possible?! She is doing amazing things! Some calyxes are beginning to turn purple. Some of the top leaves are as well. Tried to get some decent pics of it.. but I guess I cant figure the new phone out.. as you can see, some pics are a little blurry. And sometims the capture is delayed behind the flash and I still get a dark pic as if it didnt even flash.. but whatever.. I can't wait to see what she has to offer! Such a gorgeous girlie! So happy and excited for this one!
End of week..
Nothing left to do now but feed/water for about 1 more week and she will be ready for the 2 week flush!.. I normally like to just water as normal (without nutes, duh) for the entire 2 weeks and still keep checking runoff.. maybe FloraKleen once a week and then just water till harvest! So far, I am starting to see some milky! Still mostly clear, but that means she is getting closer! So excited! This girl really smells just like the Early Lemon Berry I grew! But still with a bit of sweetness to it too! Aw man I can't wait! Anyways... on to the next week!...

19.11. day 29.
Hallo Leute.
Die LeM ist etwas gebremst durch 25 w/h Blaulicht. Lässt sich aber nicht aufhalten.
Die Strawberry.... Ist nicht in Blüte, aber explodiert an trieben .
20.11. Armes Strawberry. So klein wie sie ist gab es HST. Alles gequetscht, gedreht, gebrochen. Das darf Mann ruhig hören.
Jetzt hängt sie etwas durch .
Egal in 7 Tagen wird das nochmal wiederholt.
21.11. so Leute der Stamm der LeMellon ist schön Dick. Erst Recht für day 31.
Und die Strawberry ist nicht in Blüte. Sweet Seeds gibt Tag 40 als Blüte an . Bin Mal gespannt.
24.11. Strawberry Cola Sherbet F1 .
Wie gut ist denn Sweet Seeds?
Ich hatte bereits ne Red Poison. Die war ECHT gut .
Day 34 . Sie ist nicht in Blüte trotz 7 Tagen 12-12. Was haben die da reingebaut ? Ruderalis so gut getimet das die egal wie nach 40 Tagen erst in Blüte geht?
Echt?
Das will ich wissen. Cannabis ist und bleibt spannend. Vor allem die neueren Sorten.

Estamos en la primera semana de vegetativo, ya que a la anterior se la conoce como semana de germinación.
Las plantas empiezan a mostrar las primeras hojas reales por encima de los cotiledones.
Cuidado con que la humedad relativa del aire, no sea demasiado baja, lo ideal sería alrededor de un 65%.
En esta etapa solo regamos suavemente con agua cada 5 días aprox.

Hi all 😁
Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update.
Hope everyone keeping well and having a great week.
Thank you so much for your all support on this bananas journey 💜💚💜💚
What a amazing week. Very little to work around those beauties. The smell is so delicious already. They smells like sweet berries. Buds are loaded with trichomes, very sticky and hard as rocks especially on Athena. Trichomes are mainly clear and some parts milky. Absolutely love power of LST and how it worked on this strain. If you won't look under net it's almost impossible to see which cola belongs to main stem.
Week 11
Dec 25 - Dec 31
Dec 25-26
Joyful observation
Dec 27
Selective defoliation and
First watering for this week. Nutes adjusted, almost 8ltr between both. Runoffs PH on both at 6.2. I am finding this PH level for this strain as perfect. Girls are looking super healthy and drinking they mixture like crazy.
Dec 28-30
All is going smoothly. I can see more and more weight each day.
Dec 31
Secomd watering foe this week. 8 ltr beetwen both.
It's the last day of this week and also end of 2023!!
See you in the new year 🍾🥂🍀
Peace and love brothers and sisters ✌️💚

Ich hatte zu Anfang der Woche einen zu stark aktiven Boden Leben gehabt was dazu geführt hat dass der Wurzelbereich zu warm wurde und die Nährstoff Aufnahme hemmte.
Wie kam das dazu?:
In den Töpfen ist jeweils genug Wurmhumus enthalten. Ich habe eine weitere 0,5cm Schicht rauf gemacht und es mit FPJ Gurkenschalen gegossen.
(War anscheinend zu viel, Temperaturen ging gut hoch)
Bis zum 24.07.25 konnte ich nichts unternehmen als mit angesäuerten Gießwasser zu Gießen. Ph wert des Gießwassers war ca. 5,7.
Täglich etwas gegossen.
Am 25.07. Haben sich die Pflanzen erkenntlich erholt. Heute den 26.07. Konnte ich etwas entlauben und LST machen.
Ab heute konnte ich wieder, das Licht von unten, mit blauen anteil anmachen.
Diese Woche wurde nicht gedüngt, wegen dem aktiven Bodenstress.

Starting week 4 of Flower. I expect things to slow on the upwards growth as the plant shifts focus onto the bud development. Ran out of potassium silicate. Will be continuing with out it for the rest of the grow. Ran out of potassium silicate. Will be continuing with out it for the rest of the grow.
Started to notice a slight smell when leaving the door open and returning after a few minutes. This started in the last couple days

The Buds on the Big one are growing and she seems to enjoy her Company.
The small ones start to stretch, besides that it has been a pretty boring week for me and my Tiny Clone Army of Happiness. 😊
12-02-25: The big one needs more water than the small ones. Who would have thought 🤔
Off to the shaming wheel with me.

Right so basically, a week ago today marked a month for these ladies and because I had a broken phone it was very hard to keep up to date with the journal but hopefully now I can keep on top of this grow for you guys. It's been 35 days since germination for the Rhino Ryder and Afghan Kush. I'm using soil from the back garden and now that there is a bit of foliage, with the watering etc. The humidity has risen to a level I'm not happy with to which I'm going to invest in a portable dehumidifier to bring down the moisture in the air.
I had to defoliate as it was getting really bushy and the fan was struggling to get air through the fan leaves. I cannot believe the RR, started off as the most finicky plant from germination and now it's the tallest f***er of the 4. She has shot up!
I looked at the yellow tips on the leaves and apparently it's a lack of Iron. I read that Iron deficiency can be left to work itself out typically if it's not severe. Usually after a few days after the leaves are left to expand the yellow disappears and they turn a nice fresh green colour.
The smell in here is fantastic! Until next time! ;)
Happy growing and much love from the Shire!

Finaly she is looking and getting better. Becaue of my low humidity I had to spray her with water each time 15 min before the light when out. As you can see it helped allot.
She is a tough lady and this genetics with the Plagron line is golden.
I am almost ready the flip it to 12/12. I will do it this saturday.
She only had water this week because the bat mix soil has enough nutes for her as you can see.😃
Also I dimmed my 250 watts to 175 watts and hang the light higher and what a change.
After I flip it to 12/12 I will go back to 250 watts and after 3 weeks of flower i will 10% more.
And I wil lower the light too.
Lets hope she gets some nice colas.😅
