What a week. Set up my new light today, next week should be 🔥 Had a mishap during lst and broke one of my better branches. I bandaged her with frog tape without wrapping it. She responded well and is back at it. Think I’ll leave the tape and let her break through it. I’m going to start eyeing changes with my nutes now that I expect her to drink more under this light. I will likely start watering more than twice a week. Right now she gets 1L every 3-4 days. Lemme know what you think. I’m stoked fr.

Day 77 from seed She started to drink less, about 3 liters a day. 0 fade. Another 2 or 3 weeks and she be done. This one is taking her time. Day 80 from seed: Reduced canna nutes to 50% Removed big bud nutes from res. Next week i will stop all nutes and lower ppfd + temp. Also i will turn on the 440nm in a week for tri production. 0 fade 0 amber trichomes.

26.12.24: I have noticed light stress on my plants. I had moved the lights further away and increased the light intensity to 70%. Unfortunately that created some issues. Namely severe palour of the leaves. To try and rectify the situation, I've dimmed the lights to about 30%, staying at the same distance, about 30 inches away. I measured the par levels, after I did this. They should a reading of anywhere between 40 and 150, at the canopy of the plants. They are all different sizes. This seems to have improved the colouring on all plants. After this evenings watering, I will monitor recovery and increase lighting intensity again slowly. I am also using the light cycle of 21/3, so the plants have many hours more light to absorb, than for example 12/12 or 18/6. 29.12.24: So I finally gave LST a shot, it's probably a bit too late, however I really want to get the most of the triploid pheno, and I went a little crazy and LST'd all plants except 2, as they're too small. I did that late last night, this afternoon I was amazed to see the plants turn their leaves back to the light source. I'm glad I overcame my fear of trying it. I'm very excited to see them adapt and progress! 😁 there are videos above with before and after of my LST process. I am pleased with the progress, considering all of my mistakes! Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

I really liked this variety, it grew in mixed soil, it developed well in vegetation, the buds are dense, it smells sweet, I really liked this variety, the buds should be dried in the dark at 18 degrees at 50% humidity

Edit from 16th May. Ok, so... I got Fungus Gnats... I vacuum cleaned my plant my accident... Overwatered first 2 plants... This is not like riding bicycle, I had to re-learn few things. But we going strong! The biggest plant (Fat Banana week #4) growing big and strong, every 2 hours I can notice some changes, she seems to like the environment (32C and ~40% Humidity), soil stays wet for weeks literally. I have to buy bottom feeders and keep the top soil dry bone to prevent Fungus Gnats having sex in wet soil. I have switched to 600W now and I put my lamp around 30cm higher then before. I have a net for Sea Of Green hanging and waiting but Im not sure If Im gonna use it or If I'm gonna "lollipop" these plants just because there is so many of them now there. I didn't "top" because I believe that main cola produce some banger THC content and terps, so I want to focus on all main colas and just tackle the side ones. Edit from 17th May. It looks like Fungus Gnats don't like 24h light. I can see larvas trying to eat the roots (fuck you you fucking.... FuckYouGnat). But I don't see adults flying around. 4x yellow tape helps as well for sure. I ordered some Nematodes, they should be here next week. Until then I'm fighting manually. I placed a decoy on most of the pots. I'm hoping to attract larvas to the decoy instead of baby roots of my plants. They already eat one of my seedling before it even fully open the shell, so I think there are not so many of them to attack all plants at once. I feel like I'm having more and more control over them everyday. Moving the dry soil to the sides also helps a bit with killing larvas. Just uncover the wet parts with larvas and blast them with all the watts you have. So far 2 big plants looks good and healthy, some praying leafs every now and then. I think I'm gonna leave the lights for 24/7 until I'm gonna be sure these FuckYouGnats are gone. Edit form 18th May. Nematodes arrived, I mixed 1 pack in 2L and watered all 8 pots. I have 1 pack left that I'm planning to use next week or after 2 weeks. Lady Banana is showing her sex. I was worried that it looks like hermie but I think it's just Calyx in very early stage. She also looks "wilt", I guess from all that dry period, she got some water today with nematodes, I'll check on her tomorrow. Vacuum Cleaner Surviver going strong! I believe she would even survive a house fire!

We just wrapped up an absolute scorcher of a week! The summer heat went into overdrive, with outdoor temperatures climbing up to a blazing 35–38°C. It’s been a massive test of endurance for the girls with quite a bit of heat stress, but I have to say, they are proving just how tough these genetics really are. The Feeding & Watering Marathon: 💧 With the sun beating down like a furnace, the plants have turned into absolute water-guzzling monsters. They’ve been drinking between 3 to 4 liters of water per day just to stay cool! Because they are cycling through water and processing energy so rapidly, I’ve been feeding them every 2 to 3 days to keep their nutrient levels stable—sticking to their respective organic and mineral menus. Plant Health & Defoliation: 🍂 Under this kind of intense heat, the ladies did shed a few of their older, lower leaves, which have dried up and fallen off. Honestly, it’s not surprising at all given the extreme weather, and it’s just their natural way of focusing energy on the canopy and bud production. Despite the sweat-inducing conditions, all four plants are still looking great and holding their ground beautifully. Growth & Structure: 📏 It looks like we have officially reached our final heights! There was no change in vertical growth this week, which confirms the stretch is completely done. Lemon Cherry Cookies: Sitting pretty at her final 70cm. The Rest (Amnesia Haze, Banana Purple Punch, Bruce Banner): Parked comfortably around the 50cm mark. No training or interventions on my part this week—at this point, it’s just about keeping them well-hydrated, well-fed, and letting them battle through the peak of summer while they stack up those flowers. Let's hope the temperatures drop just a tiny bit so they can catch their breath!

Wow a long week, experiment definitely started showing differences but also mistakes were made. First I missed a watering a let them get too dry soil starting to stay a dark color and threw me off... But watered and fed anyway but I think because I was using pH drops to test water (didn't know how easy it is to break the meters) I may have made concentration too acidic or soil turning acidic. I don't think there is any nutrient burn just deficiencies (calcium and phosphorus) but I could be wrong. Ordered cal-mag just in case. One thing I've noticed not sure if it is only because 5 gal pots but plants 1 nd 2 looking massive. I may only use 5 gal pots next time but still early to tell. If anyone wants more info on what I'm trying to test or see something I'm doing wrong plz comment. PS soil is waaaay different than hydro lol

These 2 girls are looking and smelling good, canopy is almost full. I'm glad they are staying smaller and not over running my grow box. Had to LST the first girl again. She recovered well and now fully spread out and shes finishing up stretch. She has some yellowing leafs at the bottom so I upgraded her nutrients to 5ml/gal. I will see how she reacts to it and adjust accordingly. The second girl was just a big bundle of leafs, I took off about 10-15 big leafs, now more bud sites are exposed. (See Pictures) Maybe I can get a little bit more LTS out of her. I'm not sure she is going to stretch anymore. Time will tell.

Week 20 8/11-17 For my outside ladies, Opium, Auto Opium, Fractal, and Lemon Cake not much changed. They continue lovin life outside. These ladies are maturing as many fans are yellowing and falling off. Temps are comfortable following Storm Debby, in the 80s with low humidity. Buds are fattening up, trichomes are minimal at this time but some fragrance is starting to be noticed. These ladies had a long vegetation phase. They germinated April 1 so I could get them hardened off before I went on vacay. They had basically 4 months of veg and the colas are already large, trichomes forming and with 2 more months to go, my expectations for these are heavy yields and sticky dense buds. Lemon Cake had her spa day and had heavy defoliation of her voluminous fan leaves. It took most of the day for my husband to trim. Oh, and there are so many feeder and sugar leaves remaining, She will be a b!tch to trim at harvest. . Thanks for the visits, likes and comments, I appreciate all the plant love💚. Have fun & love what you grow 💚 Sending you good vibes of love, light, and healing 💫 💫Natrona 💫

Day 51 : Watered with 2.5L each lady. I added as always 1 co2 tab per 4.5L . Also i added nutrients. The next one will be pure water. She is smelling like bubble bug. She will be very tasty and it is obvious from the terpenes she produces, but she will not be heavy yielder. Edit (Day 56) : Watered 1.5L pure tap water of 7.5ph and 360ppm. No co2 today. Just pure water with 0.5/L Cal-Mag. Buds are fattening nothing else.

Week 8 is over :) the girl is suffering, maybe it's my mistake that I made, :( I used biotabs nutrients throughout the growth, and at one point, she even received two waterings with advancednutrients macro, after which she started to deteriorate, from now on only pure water :) looking at it from the other side, the flowers themselves really don't look like they will be small, the flowers are already getting a pink color, which is very beautiful to me :) in general, the girl is maturing quite well :) good luck to everyone.

Week 3 of Flower for the FX3 #1 and Lucky 13, the FX3 #2 and Sergeant Sherbert have just started flowering this week after moving from the Veg Tent Into the new 150x150 tent. The Greenhouse food has been amazing completly stress free and the plants look amazing especially in combination with the Autopots! Gonna do a good defoliation and clean up the lower a bit. Stay tuned family and happy growing!!!
