Preparing to yank out top shelf and rejig things. I can only gain 4” but it will be needed as this thing is running hard. Closer than 8-10” to the LED light, and she WILL get cooked! Next Gen grow box gains almost 8” in height with same dimensions, so problem solved. I may have to cut CO2 until stretch is over or just cut altogether. I got a close eye in her. Day 44: She's looking good, and stretching at a rate of 2"/day in her tin can. I did a light defoliation and cleaned up training wires. I'll leave her be from here on out; less some selective defoliation to keep sites open. I cut CO2 (which would have been helpful a bit earlier), and may turn back on at the end of week 8, time will tell. Day 46: She looks like she is 4+ days behind when compared to the other 4 autos I have grown. She will either catch up, take longer to mature, or I'm screwed because of the heavy defol. Flower development seems slow/odd. 10pm and she’s now 22” tall and too close to the light. Flower productivity accelerating for sure. Maybe she will just catch up, and finish late? Bummer I had this one in quarantine. Day 48: leave symptoms developed further into dark rust spots very suspect to a calcium deficiency. I flushed for a few hours, cut Gro out all together and bumped Micro and Bloom. Increased CalMag from .8ml to 1.5 ml/gallon. Now observing. Day 49: Another day or two will tell but it feels like the deficiency is slowing as the progression on day 47-48 was an hour by hour progression. Throughout the week, and almost everyday, I have taken a dozen or so leaves throughout the canopy and the undergrowth. One day I defoliated her pretty good, but not super heavy. Massive leaf production and has crowded the plant/bud sites out in a matter of a day or two. Day 52: Looks like calcium or possibly potassium deficiency back in check. Newer leaves look good and no progression on older leaves.

Just cruising along. Not sure why some look like they will be very tiny, but at least one looks like it will be of a decent size.

Servus Also die Woche hab ich big geupgradet und mir einen neuen Wasserbefeuchter geholt der ist aber auf grund der hohen Luftfeuchtigkeit direkt kaputt gegangen 💀 Aufgrund dieser unkontrolierbarkeit der Luftfeuchtigkeit in einem so kleinen Raum hab ich dann eine recht effektive Box in meinen Schrank gebastelt (achso kleiner seiteneinschub PC Lüfter egal wie alt sind super einfach am ein altes USB Kabel anschließen und alles ist in sane ) Zu dem habe ich LST betrieben bei jeder Pflanze mit einem individuellen "Förderplahn". Zu dem habe ich alle mit einem "wurzeldünger" gegossen (widentrieben mit Wasser püriert und dann nach 20 Minuten wieder rausgesucht(also wenn ihr grüne kleine Dinge auf dem Boden seht ist das (bisjetzt) kein schimmel)) Habe auf der in dem großen und bemalten Topf irgendwelche spinnenweben und kleine rote Fischer gefunden hab davon schonmal irgendwas gehört und die schnell weggeräumt habe an den darauf folgenden Tagen keine roten Punkte mehr gesehen Kann mir irgendwer beantworten wie weit eine Pflanze ca zum toppen sein muss? Will das nicht zu früh machen um die Pflanze nicht unnötig zu belasten aber auch nicht wenn die Blüte schon los geht und ich habe angst das ich dieses interval verpasse Hab heute am 9. Endlich meine Erde bekommen und habe umgetopft dabei sind mir leider alle stammwurzeln abgebrochen weil mein erdmix in den tontöpfnen geklebt habt wie angetrocknetes essen (2 der Töpfe haben das umtopfen nicht überstanden )ich hatte mich für tontöpfe auf grund der Verfügbarkeit und der überlegenen luftzirkulation entschieden werde das aber nicht wiederholen insofern noch umgetopft werden soll 2 von den Pflanzen werden eventuell nocheinmal umgetopf weil sie erst in 5 l Töpfen sind (auf pastik) für die andere habe ich direkt einen 7 l tontopfgefunden das sollte denke ich reichen Was sagt ihr reichen die 5 l Töpfe oder denkt ihr ich sollte auch hier noch auf 7 aufstocken Achso die Erde ist die haferde von sonnenerde diese scheint mir ein gutes Gesamtpaket mit guter preißleißtung zu sein wird sich ja noch zeigen aber die Konsistenz und wasserbindenden Fähigkeiten sagen mir jetzt schon sehr zu Zu dem hab jch das LST unter brechen das der bruch der stammwurzel wahrscheinlich genug stress ist Wie fatal ist es das die stammwurzel gebrochen ist ? Habe zu dem nochmal diesen "weidentee" gegossen in der Hoffnung das das den Wurzeln beim regenerieren hilft setzt euch gerne auf einen Gartenstuhl und genießt den Anblick wie ein Anfänger alles neu lernt und alles altbekannten Fehler wiederholt oder mit einfachsten Mitteln beste Blüten florierenlässt Achso zu dem ist einer der USB Lüfter auf einer der Ladys gefallen die ist aber so eine kannte das der Lüfter einfach stehen geblieben ist (konnte wirklich egal wie gut ich gesucht habe keine Verletzungen an der Pflanze finden) also füttern richtig fest machen denn wenn der über seine eigentlichen 16 und nicht nur über die 5 volt USB verfügt hätte hätte ich jetzt eine 5gk salatschüssel in der fast nur Erde ist und das wollen wir ja nicht LG eure Herz Damen

It's been a beautiful plant to grow, I thought she was gonna be a little bigger, however she has produced an amazing quality flowers, very sticky, terpy and stinky, the citric aroma it's absolutely wonderful just because of that I could grow her again and again. You definitely need to try this strain if you lovd weed.💚🌱🤤

I had a lot of fun with this strain and it was grown against 400 growers so let me say PHENO hunting is a true thing. Overall the Bud was a nice dense structure and the smoke on it was smooth and the high nice and even.

This plant was a POWERHOUSE! It shattered my previous one plant personal best by almost double. I broke the rules and double topped her early on just because she had grown so quickly in the early weeks. Coupled with the fact that she didn't flower until week 5 made her a beast. I might have missed an update here or there but she was 101 days from germination and so worth the wait. In the end a totally perfect freak of nature that could take as much in nutrients as I threw at her and overall 100% the best auto I've grown to date. If every one grew like this I'd think I was getting pretty good at the art from we all come here to share and learn about.. These are my HQ photos and I'll upload the phone shots shortly! Thanks for looking and this had better be a diary of the month winner lol

As you can see on the pics, the leaves suffered some damage. I think it was damaged by a bit too much light for a bit too long. My approach when I grow it next time would be more Calmag (just a try) so the N is under control, and again strong lights. 😎 For now, the plant seems happy! 💚 DAY 57 Watered with nutes. 💧I always do 2L and stop when I see runoff. Tried to battle the millions of fungus gnats with nematodes.. 🐛 After watering, added the nematodes to the moist soil and covered the pot with a black plastic bag, so the bugs don't get sunburned. 😎 DAY 60 Keeping the soil moist now. 🐛 Watered with nutes again. 💧 I must say this plant stinks alot. It smells like dirty clothes which were in a closed box for weeks. Sweat, dankness, sweetness as well, but remember cherries differently. But I think that cherry coke has also kind of a dulled aroma, just like if noone would tell you what it is, you wouldn't know.. Gods, please, make it smell like cherries!!! 🙏 TS1000 was put higher at 50cm now, running at 75%. 💡 🍒 ❤️ 🍒 ❤️ 🍒 ❤️ Have a wonderful week! 😘 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 _____________________________________________ SET UP Mars Hydro LED TS1000 sponsored by @coco_pan2022 😘 https://www.mars-hydro.com/led-grow-lights/ts-1000-led-grow-light custom exhaust fan 270/320 m³/h 3x Garden High Pro fans 5W tap water EC 0,25 - adding Calmag to EC 0,4-0,6 - adding pH minus Bloom (AHH) to pH 6,5 50% Plantaflor organic tomato soil 🍅 50% biobizz Lightmix

Only watering with plain water this week. Last week PPMs were hovering around 2k so the slow flush is working properly. I will skip nutes this week to prevent additional build up. CSK 1 - PPM 1230 / PH 6.7 CSK 2 - PPM 1315 / PH 6.6 CSK 3 - PPM 1225 / PH 6.5

6/13/2023 Week 10- Day 1 of Flower (Day 131 overall) (Day 70 of Flower) Auto Pilot Day 6.. Checked the Trichomes and the bud density and both are looking good.. Definitely needs a little more time for the Trichomes to be where I like, so based on my check I think we are still looking right around the end of the competition 22June to be done and ready for harvest. I do like that the fade is coming in the leaves nicely, so my chart I think is dropping off the Nitrogen exactly like it is supposed to. 6/14/2023 Week 10- Day 2 of Flower (Day 132 overall) Auto Pilot Day 7.. Decided I would take some contrasting pics today with my light up to 100 and my light all the way on Dim. I hope you enjoy the pics. 6/15/2023 Week 10- Day 3 of Flower (Day 133 overall) Auto Pilot Day 8.. Decided to take a look at the Trichome's today and Check to see where they are at and honestly if I might ho ahead and start my flush tomorrow and harvest on Sunday. 6/16/2023 Week 10- Day 4 of Flower (Day 134 overall) (Day 74 of Flower) Today I pulled an Armageddon however instead of darkness they are going to get 48 hours of light. The reason why they are going to get light instead of dark is when I was taking out the netting a lot of the buds were so heavy they fell over and exposed some areas I really want to get some light to... so 48 hours of light at 40% while I watch what should be a beautiful final fade as the plant eats up the last Nutes. If anything goes wrong I can abort take the photos and cut so will pay really close attention to how it is looking over the next 48 hours. Added 30 Gallons of PH only Water. Reduced Lighting to 40% removed program time off. 48 hours of light. 6/17/2023 Week 10- Day 5 of Flower (Day 135 overall) (Day 75 of Flower) I had someone tell me that a few growers had done as I did and Gone Armageddon on the plants. Filling it with PH only and said the plants did not respond well and they were taken out of the comp at the very end because they felt like the pictures just wouldn't come out right. Even though I did go Armageddon, The PPM is at 353PPM with the residue of what was left in the buckets after draining as well as what I am getting from the TAP so I think they are doing good but I am checking them every few hours to see how they seem to be doing and I think they are doing good still and are on track. I also started prepping the area for the pics tomorrow T-24 Hours until Chop 6/18/2023 Week 10- Day 6 of Flower (Day 136 overall) (Day 76 of Flower) (Harvest Day) What a day.. what a day.. what a day.. as I was setting up and trying to figure out how I was going to get my pics #3 stems started breaking, it fell over and other stems broke.. So no really stunning competition photo for her, she had such a nice purple fade.. #2 stayed up in the Tent so that is the one I had to go with to submit for the contest. I wet trimmed them as they went into the tent and they took up three rows hanging in tent. I also decided I wanted to try some so I put a little in the freeze dryer for a 48 hour smoke test.. I will weigh it and add that to my total weight for the plants when it is all done.

Hi all🧑‍🌾 Welcome to my final 🍌💜👊 week update. First of all. I would like to thank you all for such an amazing support on this bananas journey. I am amazed of the amount of love received from community here. Thank you Grow Diaries and Fastbuds for opportuniy to share and grow this amazing genetics. Love you all❤️💜💚 Was looking for strong indica dominant strain and after reading and hearing so much about this one. Just couldn't resist to not give a go. Was a bit worried before planting seeds that my final yield outcome may not be satisactionary as only have 0.26msq and Fastbuds advertising this strain as 450-550g msq but thankfuly my result was way above this scale. My 2 beautiful ladies Athena - right corner lady. She was slighlthly more dominant over entire grow cycle. She got more space on scrog earlier and that's why she developed the most. Xena - left corner lady, I belive that she could outgrew her sister if she just have more space and another week of time. Did not expect her to turn so well on the end. Both girls were put in darkness for 48h before chop. Wet trimmed and hang for a week. Daily jars burbing for 10 days and every 2-4 days now. Weights Wet trimmed Athena 870g Xena 632g Total 1502g Dry trimmed Athena 172g Xena 147g Total dry 319g Bubble hash 6g (37g of trims) I am very happy with this result. In my opinion Banana Purple Punch Auto its a masterpiece. Thank you so much for all the support, likes, follows and comments 🙏❤️💜❤️ Peace and love brother and sisters ✌️💚🧑‍🌾 Smoke review coming in shortly Links https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/banana-purple-punch-auto https://plagron.com https://www.biobizz.com/ https://fishheadfarms.com/

10/17/24 Short facts: - Continued with LST - Watered: 1 x 1.2L, 1 x 0.3L, 1 x 1L - VPD @ 0.9 — raised by 0.1 - Light @ 50% ~500 to 560 PPFD - Removed 2-3 leaves --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As promised last week, i made a video and explained the progress so far, and did show you the plant. Not much to report. I continued LST, though I’ve stopped for a few days now since the branches are well spread out, and that should be enough for the time being. The Lemon Cherry Cookies is lacking behind in her development, maybe she got a little bit less light, because she is a little bit smaller than the other two plants.
