Today marks the 1st day of week 14, and the start of the 2nd week of the ripening stage.
Stella received a gallon of water mixed with the following nutrients:
FloraMicro - 5 ml
FloraBloom - 15 ml
Floralicious Plus - 1 ml
Dry KoolBloom - 0.5 tsp.
I seem to be having an issue with pH the last 2 feeding days. I think my gallon jugs have reached the end of their lifetimes, and THAT is what is causing my issue. It has happened to me once before, and getting new jugs cleared up the issue. I’m assuming that will be the solution to the problem.
However, we all know what “assume” stands for don’t we? If you don’t, leave a comment and I’ll explain.
The initial pH was 5.4. That is the lowest that I have ever had simply after adding nutrients. I added a total of 10 ml’s of pH UP, which in my opinion is way too much! But, I did it in 3 separate increments. Not that that makes it better.
The final pH after all that was 6.3. The runoff pH was 5.6.
She is still looking good, but you can tell she’s getting ready to start getting to her end stage. I wait with baited breath!
The tent was 81.7F, with a humidity of 56%.
We’re almost there! Happy growing everyone.

Today I’m going to keep this note brief… I promise.
Stella is continuing to fatten up getting ready for harvest in a few weeks. She is still doing well.
Today she received a gallon of water mixed with the ripen stage nutrients again. I changed all of my jugs, but after mixing everything up the initial pH was 5.5. I added 8 ml’s of pH UP which adjusted the pH going in to 6.2. Her runoff pH was 5.6.
The tent was 83.3F, with humidity at 58%.
See! A short note is possible!! Happy growing everyone.

Stella and all of her children were fed today. As usual, a day later than planned, but they got fed, and are all still doing wonderful.
We’re keeping with the ripen nutrients mixed into a full gallon of water.
FloraMicro - 5 ml
FloraBloom - 15 ml
Floralicious Plus - 1 ml
Liquid KoolBloom - 2 ml
Initial pH was 5.2. I added 12 ml’s of pH UP which adjusted it to 6.2. She had plenty of runoff with a pH of 5.8
The tent was 83.9F, and humidity was 52%.
Her buds are FAT!! Happy growing everyone!

Week 2 Flower
Both twins are looking very healthy, and are now showing clear differences in their structures after 2 weeks flower. Twin1 has beautiful big leaves and is becoming the taller girl, but she still has a nice strong structure with thick stems.
Twin2 has slowed down her stretch more than her sister, and has shorter node spacing too. With that being the case they both have their own pro's going into week 3. Either one could still be the winner, there's a long way to go yet!
They were both given another leaf strip and a slightly higher lollipop later in the week to slow their stretch down, and increase light penetration. Their base nutrients will be changed towards the bloom ratio now they're slowing their stretch and producing calyxs.
Thanks for following and happy growing! 🐺

Plants have responded really well to the drier air...the dehumidifier has transformed them a lot...they were going a pale green as i assume they were intaking moisture through the air rather than the roots with nutrients...they have started to go a nicer green and really putting on some growth now...
Some of the stems are going purple, not sure if this is genetics or due to slightly colder lights off temps...the tent drops to 19/20°C when the lights are off...not sure if this is too cold from the 29/30°C on lights on...

Nutrients: @xpertnutrients
Soil: Plagron
LED: powerlux_spain 720 Watt
Tent: secretjardin_ 120*120*200
She is 1 of 4 plants from the grow.
The LED only ran at half power = 400 watts 100 watt per plant
Reason: summer time - to counteract summer temperatures without additional devices.

All looking great. Bud growing. 😃😃😃
Cant believe it. Going nicely. Just a very long patient wait.
Eager to finish so can start on RQS Green Gelato auto grow.
Hoping this will be complete in next 2 to 3 weeks. Than have to cure.
Lower leaves have issues. Top leaves look good.
Day 50 increased nutes to max 1.2ml each per 500ml water. Ph6.6. Watered 250ml to see any damage tomo. Run off from soil ph came to 6.4.
Day 51 watered 250ml from balance
Day 52 watered 100ml watered with nutes ph6.6
Day 53 watered 200ml from balance and lowered lights to 45cm from 80cm.
Hopefully more growth tomorrow 🙏

Ich habe die Pflanzen erfolgreich in größere Töpfe umgesetzt. Alle Ladys sind nun in 6-Liter-Töpfen mit BioBizz All-Mix untergebracht. Der Umzug verlief reibungslos, die Wurzeln sahen gesund und kräftig aus – ein gutes Zeichen für ein solides Fundament.
Seit dem Umtopfen zeigen die Pflanzen ein gutes Wachstum. Der All-Mix scheint gut angeschlagen zu haben, erste Anzeichen von Nährstoffaufnahme sind sichtbar: sattes Grün, aufrechte Blätter und ein insgesamt vitaler Eindruck. Gießen erfolgt aktuell noch moderat, da der All-Mix gut vorgedüngt ist.
Ich beobachte die Entwicklung genau, halte Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit stabil und freue mich auf die weitere Wachstumsphase.

Week 1 of flower and she started her stretch. Using General Hydroponics Trio for feed along with TPS Signal and Recharge for soil. I'm considering adding a 2nd trellis, but it depends on how the next week or two goes. Did some light and final defoliating. Could have went more but I didn't want to risk overdoing, not until I'm more experienced anyway. Plus I recommend having a plant to experiment on and take some high-reward risks concurrent with your main grow.

Week 8 Flower
Flush flush flush 💦🚽💦🚽💦
It's extremely important to flush for at least 14 days when using synthetic nutes, or any bottled nutes in my opinion. The aim is to make her cannibalize (fade) as much as possible before she's chopped. By doing this, she's using up her stored nutrients, causing the leaves to eventually die. The better the flush the cleaner the smoke 👌💨 even when in an organic set up, the plant needs to be nicely faded before being harvested. Otherwise she's still full of nutrients. I still feel I'll be able to get an even better flush when I eventually make the switch to RO water, as my tap water holds a ppm value of approx 150. It's not too much, but 0 is always better.
She was taken down on Day 57 flower, after a 16 Day flush. I didn't want to take her any further as she was quite stressed being so close to the light. So to avoid getting seeds I waited until she had a beautiful fade before giving her the chop ✂️ I always take my girls down about 30mins before the light turns on so there is minimal chlorophyll production in the plant. This is to ensure the best smell, taste and overall burn after drying and curing.
A subtle but very sweet-ish tropical fruit skin kind of smell to her. Her buds are super dense and covered in trichomes. I trimmed off all fan leaves and then each branch was hung in my drying box and placed in a cool area. She was dry after 6 days and ready to be dry trimmed and jarred for curing. I'll post those pics with the harvest update!

😺Week 5 is here!!🐱 they're growing fast and the yellowing seems to have corrected on its own (keeping the feeding routine consistent)
.. we removed some growth from the mainline and topped at the ends (we decided to try topping at 3rd node for a wider plant, we'll see what happens lol), our goal is for 4-6 mains per side. All the BigBud plants need to be re-potted this week into their final homes..we're running a little low on promix so 50% will be reused..thanks for reading, drop a like if you made it this far lol..we'll update midweek ❤️🐱💡🌱

😽Everyone was up-potted to 5- 6 gallon containers toady..I also cleaned out a tent and moved a light, creating a space just for the ILGM Big Bud 😺👌

First week of flowering.
Girls are super happy. And drink a lot. I very much prefer the lower plant count with 8 plants. And I’m probably not going to go back to more than 9 plants. Perhaps will even try 6 or 7. 12 or 16 was a bit of overkill. Maybe with super short veg it has its place.
26.01 first day of flower.

She's done! She took longer to ripen than her tent mates but she was an easy grow and her buds are dense, dank and stank! Flushed her for the last couple weeks then threw her in the dark for a couple days. I don't know if it made a difference, but I didn't want to waste the power. 14.3 wet ounces once she was chopped down.
Stay tuned for the smoke report!

Hi all,
Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update.
Thank you so much for your all support on this bananas journey 💜💚💜💚
Week 12
Jan 1 - Jan 7
I am so happy seeing how my girls are developing. All it's going great. 2 waterings of 8ltr on 03/01 no runoff and second on 06/01 9.5ltr! Runoffs PH at 6.2. Purchased larger dehumidifier and installed on 03/01 instantly humidity decreaseed from 55-59 to 50-55 on avg. and at night from 62-69 to 54-60. Light from 01/01 on max power output 110 watts. Nutes slightly adjusted. Buds on both girls gaining size, weight. Trichomes on Athena mostly milky and clear with only very few ambers. Xena mostly 50/50 clear and milky,
They are smelling gorgeously, not sure if I should smoke or eat them first.
Next week will still feed with nutes and keep an eye on trichomes development but it seems that girls are not in a hurry at all. That's okay me neither 😁
Stay tuned for next week entry very soon!
Peace and love brothers and sisters ✌️💚

Non eventful week apart from noticing possible potassium difficiency on my Blue Afghan and planet of the grapes started yellowing on the leaves.
