2022-10-20 She started Indoors, thenshe was Planted in open ground The open Ground was very well prepared, so it was fluffy and filled with enriched soilmix and OUTDOOR GROW from Genoneeleven Idont know whats wrong this Year The Plant started 4 Week slater to bloom than the previous Grows, and took way to long for northern Hemisphere i cut today big part of her down, she could stand 2 more Weeks, but Weather is to bad So only 8 from 10

DAY 1 (06/03/2020) The seedlings started growing tonight after 4 days since they were planted inside the rockwool cube (02/03/2020). They are under a 23w CFL until they are a little taller and start to make the first 2 leaves. The distance is very small from the light to not get them too stretched. Feeding just water now. I already prepared the RDWC setup with a 60 liters box (0,6 m x 0,4 m x 0,25 m) for 3 plants. The grow tent is 120x120 cm. The light will be a Sylvania 600w HPS powered by a Gib Ligthing LXG Timer 600w Electronic Ballast. Since it is dimmable I will start with 250w and increase in the first weeks until reaching 600w. The ballast has the Sunlight mode which increase the wattage of the lamp during the first hour and decrease during the last to simulate the sun cycle. DAY 5 (10/03/2020) Seedling are growing well. I started RDWC yesterday and put 25 liters of water with 15 ml of FloraCoco Grow, 15 ml of FloraMicro,15ml of FloraBloom. I also added 5 ml of Great White Mycorrhizae to strengthen roots. The water from my tap is 40 ppm , the water in the reservoir is 500 ppm. Increased power light to 350w. Temperature and Humidity when lights on: 23°C and 35%. Added a humidifier inside the room to increase humidity.

The week went really well and we are starting strong into week 3. The King's Juice Auto #1 is giving me some worries because she's a little bit small. Also, I saw an aphid on her. Never underestimate green light spectrum guys! Speaking of light... I raised the light intensity up to 30% (80W) and will keep doing it like this until I end up with a DLI of 40-45. With 19 hours of light that would be roughly 60-65% of light output. Interesting. From the side view, I think #2 is my favorite but overall it's still #3. Still unsure what kind of training I should do or if at all. Alright, I trained them and tried some different strategies. I topped #3 because she was by far the tallest one anyway, I "lollipopped" #1, so that she hopefully pushes more power into the upper part and I just tucked the fan leaves of #2 under the branches. At least as far as I could. #2 definitely has some lovely growing! She also has the first white hair coming out. Will try to get a photo of that later, hopefully with my new wifi microscope. Should be delivered tomorrow. Wasn't delivered but how she develops, I don't need the microscope. First set of white hairs is clearly visible! I'm exited to see how they continue to develop.

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/

Logramos mucho esta semana y eso nos tiene felices, hemos reforzado la estructura del scrog y realizamos la última defoliación antes de comenzar la floración. Esta es la última semana que usamos nutrición para vegetativo y comenzaremos a usar C21 Nutrients Flores Parte A + Parte B

5/6/25 beautiful dang plant. Nice stretchy indica structure. She will produce very nicely. Excited to see how the bud structure is later in her life

6/19 Knowing it was going to be over 100° for the majority of the day I WATERED the garden with 3 1/2 gallons. I went to check around 4 and everything looked amazing. We got some hard rain from a thunderstorm at 4pm but it seems like these girls like it rough and did fine. The take a beating and come back stronger. Knock on wood but I haven't seen any problems on the plant I snapped amd dict taped.. Everything seems to have toughened up and the leaves are an awesome healthy color. They grow observable every day now. Tomorrow is supposed to reach 100 again for most of the day before weather goes back to semi normal. I took a video but it will take way to long to upload. Tons of other pics didn't upload either. 6/20 Another day that's going to be over 100°. Plants seem to love it lol. I can't believe what I'm seeing. Bags still had some heft so I didn't water this morning. I figure I'll check them around noon and then plan on watering tonight if they need it. Hopfully they'll get some rain from thunderstorms. This crop has been through a lot. I think that has helped them significant deal with this unpredictable weather. 6/21 We had a MAJOR thunderstorm with sheet rain yesterday. I missed it but it was intense. I saw some videos. First time dad seemed concerned. Fortunately there was no damage. I was going to water today but I decided to hold off due to the look of the plants and the "praying leaves" at 4pm and feeling some moisture in the soil. Bags seemed to still have some heft. I'll probably water tomorrow. Need to transplant the 1 gals and need to figure out what I want to do for nutes this year. So far I've put in much less effort and I'm still doing great. I just don't have as many plants as usual. 6/22 Rained last night. Not much but the bags were heavy still so I held off watering. Plants looked happy and I can fix under watering much easier. It will rain tomorrow. I'll check throughout the day and update but things are going good. I should transplant those 3 seedlings in 1 gals. 6/23 It Rained last night and is suppised to rain today. It was raining when i went over. Just the kind if rain the plants love. I'll check again before church but I'm eventually going to have to water them. Those thunder storms helped a lot. 6/24 Rained about an inch yesterday. Plants loved it. Bigger everytime I see them. One seedling showed a pistol and I'll transplant it with the rest. It was the only one I was worried about. I've seen a FEW leaf hopper punctures and some other bites that could be anything. Time to get the ipm 6/25 Looks like its gonna be a nice sunny day. 75° at 10am. Plants are doing amazing and growing at a rapid pace. Haven't done anything ipm as of yet but any damage I've seen is localized to "A" leaf on "A" plant. I'll be paying attention and watching for signs of deficiencies. As of now though they LOOK great. I'll try to transplant the 3 seedlings today.

What a roller coaster of emotions. Was a litle early to harvest but since I also got some pollen thats totally fine! Total Runtime: 88 days

Day 57: Forgot to get pics when watering. So some pics the next day. Water/Feed day. Each plant got 1 gallon with: 5mL per gallon Alaska 5-1-1 15mL per gallon Alaska 0-10-10 7.5mL GrowMore Seaweed Extract 15mL Blackstrap Molasses Plant 2 also got 1.25mL per gallon of AGT-50 Plant 3 also got 15mL per gallon of Liquid Culture Microbes Plant 4 got both and at the same amounts. I scratched into the soil of each pot 1/2 cup of Happy Frog Fruit and Flower Day 58: Took pictures. Plants are looking good. You can really see the difference in plant 1 compared to the other 3. Very few tops really pushed their way up on plant 1. Day 59: Water/Feed day. Again I didn't get pictures on this day. Each plant got 1 gallon with: 5mL per gallon Alaska 5-1-1 15mL per gallon Alaska 0-10-10 7.5mL GrowMore Seaweed Extract 15mL Blackstrap Molasses Day 61: This time I got some pics. You can really tell that the plants are in flower. They are developing a good smell and you can see trichomes starting as well. Water/Feed day. Each plant got 1 gallon with: 5mL per gallon Alaska 5-1-1 15mL per gallon Alaska 0-10-10 7.5mL GrowMore Seaweed Extract 15mL Blackstrap Molasses

Die ersten richtigen Blüten und mehr LST. 😊

Everything went well, well.. I broke its root as I began to plant it (by accident!), still goot good result, plant raised now is 2cm tall with light source 15cm above, growing pretty good at this moment, I'll keep you tuned!

Nice colour, she liked the nutrients, was increasing in vigorousity all week long.. Perfect moment to test some Topping and later LST :)

Flowering day 76 since time switch to 12/12 h. Hey guys :-) Finally the time has come . The lady was harvested and hung upside down in the dry tent 😍. Before that, she stood in the drying tent in complete darkness for 2 days and the large leaves were removed. The small leaves stay attached during the drying process so that they protect the buds and allow them to dry more slowly and evenly :-) . In the dry tent, the temperature is 18-19.5 degrees and the humidity is 54-58% 👍. In this environment they are now allowed to hang for 10-14 days before they are fine-tuned and trimmed clean by hand. then after trimming they come to ferment for 6-12 weeks in dark jars with bobeda packs 62% to keep the perfect humidity. After a few weeks, the Boveda packs 58% are used so that they can slowly dry out :-) . Of course there is one last update after trimming. Until then, I wish you a lot of fun with the update. Stay healthy and let it grow 💚🙏🏻. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this strain at : https://www.thegratefulseeds.com/shop/feminized-seeds/limited-edition/blue-javaz/ Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

White Widow is coming along nicely. Buds are definitely fattening up. She looks and smells good too! 👍 Probably still a month til harvest, but I'll wait patiently.

Harvest: Everything dried up to 347 grams + 96 grams of super high quality trim. Overall I am not too pleased with the smoke of the product. Although the bud size, bag appeal, smell and taste are pretty much all there, the shitty burn is a deal breaker for me and the majority of this weed is quite frankly useless. Another downside is while smoking I’ve found 4 seeds in an ounce from almost every strain. Light leaks? At least I learned a ton, including how to get super good burn for my next crop. I’m hoping that curing for a month or so will improve the burn but I wouldn’t really count on it. I have seen weed dried for 4 days with no cure and no flush smoke clean and not go out once. I have been told that the key to white ashes/clean burn is proper mineral content in the soil and there is tons of scientific studies on cigar ash going back 100 years. Plants grown in a medium with high levels of decomposing organic matter, phosphorus, magnesium, chlorine and heavy metal ratio tend to produce black/grey ash. Whereas plants grown in a medium with a higher ratio of trace minerals like calcium carbonate and potassium in the form of wood ash, rock dusts, oyster shell flour and lower levels of decomposing organic matter will produce a dense, uniform white ash that rarely goes out. But this is still all theory until I test it to confirm for myself a few times. My last few outdoor harvests did not improve with curing at all so I’m hoping this will be the missing link. Plain peat moss and coco clearly lack essential minerals that help burn. If said theory is correct I should find a synthetic nutrient line with more trace minerals. Makes me wonder if growing if rockwool/basalt rock could improve burn in a hydro setup. I think I did a fairly decent job for my first grow. I went wrong in a million different places but I still stuck it out and got some decent herb. Things went wrong early when I got black spot mold, nitrogen/magnesium deficiencies and powdery mildew. I corrected most of it but things didn’t get really bad until mid veg when I intentionally skipped a few feedings and defoliated quite heavily stunting the plants. I also didn’t even top or start LST until the 6-9th node which was really stupid and hurt my yield. My temperatures were all over the place from the learning curve. I was severely overwatering without realizing it. 100% peat moss is a shitty medium. I also fed way too late in flower (not what caused shitty burn). I also used synthetic nutrients in soil.

Ich freue mich auf den nächsten run und werde mein Zelt + Equipment desinfizieren. Nachdem dieser run nach 12 Wochen nicht gerade glücklich geendet ist, dürstet es mich nach einem erfolgserlebnis

🍬 Sweet Mandarine Skittles (Sweet Seeds) – Week 7 | Flowering Day 1 🌸 Here we go! 🚀 Yesterday I flipped her to bloom, so today is officially Day 1 of flowering. She’s growing in Sonnenerde (yes, real “sun soil” 🌞🌱) and has already stretched like crazy. Honestly, she smells phenomenal – a strong sweet citrus candy vibe in the air 🍊🍬. I’m a bit worried she might turn into a giant later on, but that’s part of the fun 😅. I didn’t catch the moment right after transplanting to see how she reacted, but hey – it’s all part of the experiment. Luckily I’ve got a few more seeds of her in the stash, so we’ll see what this one can teach me 🌿. Stick around, follow along, and let’s see how big this Sweet Mandarine Skittles rainbow will shine 🌈🔥. --- 🍬 Sweet Mandarine Skittles (Sweet Seeds) – Woche 7 | Blütetag 1 🌸 Jetzt geht’s los! 🚀 Gestern habe ich auf Blüte umgestellt, also ist heute offiziell Tag 1 der Blüte. Sie wächst in Sonnenerde 🌞🌱 und hat sich vorher schon ordentlich gestretched. Der Duft ist jetzt schon phänomenal – süß, fruchtig, richtig nach Citrus-Bonbons 🍊🍬. Ein bisschen Sorge hab ich schon, dass sie nachher ein richtiger Riese wird 😅. Leider hab ich den Moment nach dem Umtopfen nicht getappt, um zu sehen, wie sie reagiert hat – aber egal, ist ja ein Experiment. Zum Glück habe ich noch ein paar Samen auf Lager, also mal sehen, was dabei rauskommt 🌿. Bleibt dran und vergesst nicht zu folgen – das hier könnte ein richtig süßer Ananas-Rainbow werden 🌈🔥.
