Diciamo che le ragazze dovevano tutte e due arrivare a maturazione, invece io magari stupidamente (anzi sicuramente) ho raccolto due settimane prima la ragazza alimentata con RQS organico fertilizzante,, solo che era in una posizione scomoda, bloccata dalla mia rete per fare scrog, che l ha molto penalizzata e soprattutto l aria da quale parti rimaneva sempre spesso umida e la ragazza ne ha sempre risentito da quando ha iniziato a fiorire, mentre l altra aha continuato il suo sviluppo diventando uno "scherzo della natura *🤣 per grossezza e densità delle cime e delle foglie ritorte accanto piene di resina e sode come fossero cime loro stesse!! 😺 Anche se cmq mi rendo conto che avrei potuto avere risultati migliori con le potenzialità che ho acquisto nel tempo, e spero nella prossima edizione indoor di dare il meglio di me stesso e dimostrare che posso essere all altezza in un paese contrario alla legalizzazione riesco a produrre un prodotto di qualità che ormai sono 3/4 anni mi permette di non dover entrate in contatto con criminalità organizzata per avere due canne da fumare... È questo per me è già un lusso spettacolare che mi posso permettere ma per cui ho sudato, lavorato per anni prima di averlo... Vabbe buon 420 a tutti!

Week 19 of veg!😂😂 would never of thought I’d of took it this long. The big switch to flower starts Monday! The plants been topped around 40 times over the 18 weeks, 18 cuttings that were taken 3 weeks ago. My first attempt at the lollipop technique , nice little defoliation and a good top dress of Dr organics living soil amendments. I have absolutely no idea what’s around the corner when this is flipped😅 but the scrog nets deffo making an appearance😂 keep an eye out for the diary of her little sisters, there already looking 💥… untill next time 👊🏻

First week of vegetation! They are doing very well, they have all grown and I am very happy from now on to give them more cane, as soon as they grow a little more I will plant them directly in the ground so that they have more space.

Defoliated them yesterday. They look a bit small but that's because of the 9l pot, I guess. I hope we will see some big colas. Had no problems at all. 💪

GENERAL COMMENT. WEEK 5 OF FLOWER. Ok guys, this week ran ok for one girl and less for her sister, so i will go on details individually. RQS NORTHERN LIGHTS AUTOMATIC COMMENT. As I has commenting since the beginning I think this could be a nice strain to grow with minimal water and nutes, keep that in mind when growing this strain, i learned the hard way. What happened with this girl is that salt builded up in the medium and de stabilised mainly the PH, creating a super acidic medium, thats my bad, i failed to id earlier. So back to spotting, and a bit of yellowing showing, so some deficiencies, i honestly don’t know how this is going to end. I flushed her 4 days a go with PH water to 6.5, that raised the medium runoff from 5.0 to 5.4-5.6, and flushed again with tap water, is alkaline at 8.1+, runoff is still 5.6, so that raised more concern with that input range getting so acidic runoff is bad, and in the end of flush received a dose of voodoo juice, big bloom, calmag and top candy, that are all organic at regular ph, EC at 1.8. I know the PH fluctuation can worse the scenario. I’m been apocalyptic is just that i’m feeling a bit turn down now, i was expecting this girl to run flawlessly, heads up will try my best to correct issues, just wished she was like her sister…

week four flower everything looks fine so far :D I water them with 1.5l every 48h the light I use was set to 100% and it hangs 80cm away from the tops

10 Wochen sind rum und die Fat Banana hängt jetzt zum Trocknen, ich rechne damit, sie in 5-6 Tagen ins Glas schneiden zu können. Bin schon sehr gespannt, wie viel ich rausbekommen habe, es riecht jedenfalls sehr fruchtig, wie nach Multivitamin Bonbons, mal sehen ob sie nach dem Trocknen auch noch so riecht. Fat Banana Auto von RQS gehört zu meinem ersten Tagebuch, das ich auf Growdiaries gestartet habe. Leider wird das komplette Tagebuch nicht angezeigt, in dem ich Fat Banana, Cookies Gelato und Green Gelato zeige, warum auch immer, selbst der Support konnte mir nicht helfen 🤷🏻‍♂️ Naja deswegen dachte ich mir, ich lasse euch teilhaben an dem Tagebuch und habe die Bilder von vor 2 Jahren aus dem alten Tagebuch hochgeladen. Sie war wirklich sehr angenehm zu Rauchen und ich werde sie wohl bald mal wieder machen 😊

The BIP started fading. The buds are pretty hard and dense. The smell is already Stunning 😮‍💨😵‍💫. Beatiful genetic From Perfect Tree

Popped a seed for SeedSupreme's Chocolope around the beginning of February. Typing this in April, the plant has grown to about 1 meter. Germinated in a paper towel in a bag, but i put the bag in my heated vacuum chamber (without the vacuum running) and set the temp at 89-90 degrees. Popped in like 2 days, named the mother plant Charmaigne, and have since cloned the plant and gotten a good 9-11 babies that I'm currently giving the ol' voir-dire and I'll choose which ones make the cut. Put the lil clones in starter soil while my Ed Rosenthal soil cools off from mixing. Also, this is about my 4th grow in this space. 1st one i needed to get back into a routine, second one got screwed up with my take on custom dirt, then salvaged. 3rd one, i learned about powdery mildew, and how to NOT get it. This being the 4th, i decided that i really wanted to complicate my life even further with a 13 week flowering cycle plant and no knowledge as to how to get this Chocolope dank af, so any and all critiques, questions, comments concerns and disbeliefs are welcome, as I can use all the help i can get here...

Blooming along well now. Only vertical height has been bud mass. Happy and healthy and been very easy going so far. She got treated with Dr zhymes as a preventative. That will basically wrap up her treatments ...possibly once more with lost coast. Upped the pk intake as she is blooming strong now. Gotta keep her engine well fuelled. Response was stellar. Happy happy happy lady. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

12/04/2023 - Day 1 : Placed Outside in the morning, Jiffy was shaded so it didnt get too hot on the roots. Left her ouside for 2 days as it was not raining. 15/04/2023 - Day 3: Roots just perfurated Jiffy, time to place her in the Pot and feed. After that just left her to be. Didnt feed anymore this week as it rained and the plant was doing fine Day 7 - She´s turning slightly light green

April 26, 2024 Day 71 It's a new week and the start of late flower. It was also cleaning day. Both reservoirs have been cleaned out and are freshly loaded with new water. This week we are focusing on watering and nutrients. I may start to drop the dose until flush, over this week and the next. The light power will also be gradually dropped down over the next 2 weeks. Not much this week, I think I'll drop the DLI down to 43 mol/m²/d in the middle of the week. Next week I'll drop it down to 38 mol/m²/d. It all depends on what the plants look like. The plants are getting ready to hunker down and finish up. Both have decent sized buds and just need to finish swelling. I'd say another 2 weeks maybe? Flushing will start at some point over the next 2 weeks as well. Flushing won't be much of a big deal as it's just cleaning the reservoirs and running a week of Flawless Finish. The environment is changing a bit as well. I dropped the day temp down to 75° and the night temps to 65° or lower. Not cold enough to cause stress, but enough to get some purple I hope. The humidity is sitting at 47% and I'll be leaving it there unless somehow I can get it to go lower. For now it's pretty solid at 47% and everything looks great, so no need to worry. I'll be taking trichome pics every few days. One pic for each plant. No point in loading up the whole photo gallery with even more daily pics. Plus, the progression of trichomes isn't fast enough to really notice daily. So every 3 days should be fine. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.2° RH: 47.7% VPD: 1.49 kPa April 27, 2024 Nothing happening today. Both ladies were inspected with no issues. I snipped a single leaf off of Banana Purple Punch B. Just one. Blocking bud sites. Banana Purple Punch A has some massive buds. About the size of golf balls. Maybe a bit smaller. They are still swelling and have a good 2 weeks left. Pistils are still mostly white, so that's a good sign for larger buds and more trichomes. Banana Purple Punch B is looking wonderful as ever. She doesn't seem to be suffering any issues with nutrient burn unlike her sister plant. She's perfectly healthy and has very nice bud production. The buds aren't quite as big as Banana Purple Punch A, but still nice and sizeable. The nutrient burn seems to have stopped for Banana Purple Punch A. So that's good. It should be perfectly fine now. Lighting is staying the same for the next couple of days. Although, I may keep it the same for the rest of the week. The environment is excellent now. It's raining today and the humidity is still at 47%. I did get it down to 44% for most of the afternoon yesterday, so I may be able to keep it down after the rain stops. Or just wait for the afternoon and see what happens. Either way, the humidity is now at 47% and the temp is at 76.8°. The VPD is at 1.57 kPa. A tiny bit high, but still well within range. Last night's temp was a little high at 69°. I'll have to drop the temp lower again to get that 65° sweet spot. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.4° RH: 45.7% VPD: 1.55 kPa April 28, 2024 Not much to do today. I mixed a new batch of nutrients for both plants. The only difference is that I cut the Overdrive in half down to 2 ml/gal. Neither plant needs it, but now it's mixed and ready to go. I may end up filling the reservoirs tonight as it stands. Or later this afternoon. I don't think they will last til tomorrow morning. Both plants are putting off a wonderful aroma. I honestly can't describe it. Like sweet and kind of a hint of banana and a bit heady. Trichome production is picking up quickly. The pistils are starting to turn orange as well. They are definitely in the late flowering stage. I think I'll start dropping the nutrients for the next watering. And I'll drop the DLI down to 40 mol/m²/d tomorrow I think. Not much else to say about nutrients or lighting, so moving on to the environment. It's a warm humid day out and raining off and on. My whole environment is wonky, with humidity being at 57% and the temp at 77°. I turned the AC on about an hour ago and the temp went down to 75°, and humidity up to 60%. I think I'll crank the AC all the way down. And hopefully get rid of the humidity with the temp being a bit lower than perfect. Update: I ended up adding about a half gallon of plain water to both reservoirs. Just Incase I have nutrient lockout or something. They should go through that by tomorrow afternoon. Maybe late evening. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.6° RH: 52.8% VPD: 1.39 kPa April 29, 2024 No watering today. I'm still waiting for the plain water work it's way through. However, I did drop the light power. Both ladies look great. Big buds, great scent and nice color. I'm not seeing any fade yet, but the nutrient burn is still there. I hope it will fix itself with the plain water. And then maybe fading will start. These two need a good 2 weeks or so before harvest. The lighting, as I said, was changed today. I dropped the power down to 70% to get as close as possible to 40 mol/m²/d. I may have to drop it another 10%. I'm not too sure. I'll check the DLI again when I'm more awake. (I'm finally on my second cup of coffee. Lol) Looks good though. Just around where I want it to be. But there are a lot of spots where the DLI is a bit high at 43 mol/m²/d. The tallest tops are also kind of high at 45 mol/m²/d. Again, I'll double check on a couple hours, but it should be fine. The environment is wonky again today. The temp is fine, but the humidity is still high at 60% and I don't see a way to drop it again. Not with the current weather. Hopefully I can get it down with some heat. The AC method did not work. Well, it maybe will work tonight. I'll be dropping that bad boy down to 59° tonight and hopefully it will do what I need it to. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.2° RH: 59.8% VPD: 1.15 kPa April 30, 2024 Watering day. The reservoirs were both nearly empty and there was just enough space for a full gallon in each one. It's the normal nutrient dose with Overdrive being at 2 ml/gal. These two plants are looking mighty fine. Excellent bud swelling and trichome production. I'm definitely going to be wet trimming them instead of my normal dry trim. I may leave the bods on the branches and do a partial wet trim, or I guess mostly wet trim. They smell great! Very strong aroma now. I swear they smell like artificial grape. I can't describe it any other way. Grape and pungent. Awesome. So far the light seems to be fine. No reaching or showing any signs of lack of lighting. They look pretty happy. Although, Banana Purple Punch A is a bit sad from nutrient burn. Banana Purple Punch B however didn't seem to have much of a problem with the burn. The environment is still pretty wonky. High humidity again. I can control the temp pretty easily, but the humidity is another issue. It's currently sitting at 56% and I'm holding the temp at 76°. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.5° RH: 57.0% VPD: 1.26 kPa May 1, 2024 Not a whole lot going on today. No water needed, no light changes. I rotated both ladies 180° so now they are getting light on other sides. I'll leave them like this for the rest of the grow I think. Banana Purple Punch A actually fits better in the new position. Less wall touching and about the same neighboring plant touching. I also removed 3 leaves. Ones that were misshapen from being crushed against the tent walls. Banana Purple Punch B seems to fit a little better in the new position, mostly because of her sister plant. More room on the outside and a little less room inside. No leaves were removed today. I'll reserve that for the last 2 days of the grow cycle. Then I'll do a massive defoliation and then a wet trim. It's humid here right now and I need the space. Otherwise I'd stick with dry trimming. But I can't hold up the tent for 3 more weeks. I have other plants getting ready to be planted in their final containers. Like a week for that, I might be able to squeeze a week and a half, but that's it. They will have a space, but the main tent is where they will need to be. Not a 2x2 dry tent. I'll work it how I need to I guess. Anyway, both ladies look great! Trichome production is coming along nicely as well. They are very smelly now and I love it. They are also still packing on weight I think. Not a ton, but the buds are clearly getting denser now that some of the pistils are starting to turn orange. I'd say another 2 weeks on these two. As I said, the lighting hasn't changed at all. Not for another few days to a week. Then it will have another power drop. Until then, we are staying at a DLI of 40 mol/m²/d. It's roughly 38 mol/m²/d on the outer part of the canopy. The environment is STILL wonky. I cannot for the life of me get that damned humidity down at all. Not with a dehumidifier, not with the heat cranked, not with the AC cranked. I'll try my big dehumidifier in my room, but the humidity is like 49% and frankly I'd rather the room humidity stay there. Much easier to breathe. However, the humidity in the tent is suffering at 59% while the temp is hanging out still at 76° Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.2° RH: 56.1% VPD: 1.27 kPa May 2, 2024 Not a lot going on today. No watering needed, no trimming, nothing. I found a broken bud on Banana Purple Punch A. It must have been from when it was against the wall, or too close to the other plants and got stuck on a branch while I was rotating. Oh well. It's a lower bud, so not huge. It's also the last day of the week and that means new videos! For the rest of the grow, I'll be making weekly videos of the individual plants. So that will.be this week and the next 2 weeks or so. Banana Purple Punch A looks great aside from that one broken bud. Her buds are fat and thick. Super dense from what I can see. I would like to note that the fade hasn't started yet, so we still have that 2 weeks left. Unless it starts in the next day or 2, I'll be banking on 2 weeks. Banana Purple Punch B is still compact as ever, but her buds are getting fatter everyday and of all the plants in the tent, she has done the best with the nutrients. Very little burn and didn't seem to be bothered by it. Maybe I did something early on to have such a small plant, but still. I think I can bank on 2 oz from each plant. Maybe 3 oz. It's really nothing compared to previous grows, but as I said before, as long as it's fire, I'm happy. Trichome production on both plants is fantastic. They are loaded from top to bottom. And building more and more everyday. There's still plenty of time left for there 2 as well. Most of the trichomes are clear with about 20% being cloudy and sparsely amber. That's another sign that they need another couple of weeks. Maybe slightly less. I increased the light power yesterday back up to 80%. I think I was a bit early on the intensity drop, so I'll drop it again in a few days I think. Around mid week coming up. Now we are running a DLI of 43 mol/m²/d inside and 40 mol/m²/d on the outside. The environment kinda fixed itself, but not to the ideal climate. It's still at 55% humidity. Better than 60%, but still not good enough. It needs to be below 50%. However, I can still control the temp and I have it at 74.5°. I'll turn it up a bit and see if I can clear out the last 5% of the humidity. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.7° RH: 55.2% VPD: 1.24 kPa Update: I added a couple test videos to see if they would upload. Success!

The plant is still going strong, but I noticed that the colors have faded a bit. Not necessarily a bad thing, though—I realized the temperature difference between day and night was a bit too extreme, which probably caused unnecessary stress. It did look absolutely stunning with those colorful leaves, but stability is more important now.🌱 Other than that, everything is going great! The buds are getting thicker, stinkier, and completely covered in frost.😍 The dominant smell is still pink pepper, which is really interesting. Sometimes I get a hint of something sweet, but I’m not sure yet if it will develop more over time.💚

Blütetag 80 | Tag 140 gesamt 🌡️ Klima & Umfeld Draußen wieder deutlich kühler – merkt man im Zelt direkt. Die Luftfeuchtigkeit liegt aktuell eher bei 55–60 %, entsprechend läuft die Abluft wieder deutlich aktiver. 👉 Insgesamt: kühl & feucht, aber noch stabil im Rahmen. 🌿 Pflanzenstatus Triangle Sherbet Kush 🍬 Optisch seit gut zwei Wochen eigentlich „durch“. Kaum noch frische Härchen, Blätter ziehen sich zurück – klassischer Endzustand. 👉 Aber: Trichome bleiben hartnäckig cloudy, Amber ist praktisch nicht vorhanden. Sie steht stabil, baut nicht mehr groß um – aber dieser letzte Reifeschritt kommt einfach nicht richtig. White Gushers 33 🍇 Hier passiert noch sichtbar was – aber sehr selektiv. Die Buds quellen weiter auf, aber: 👉 sie ist noch nicht komplett milchig, vereinzelt sind noch klare Trichome vorhanden. Neue Pistils kommen weiterhin – aber hauptsächlich an den Stellen, wo sie ins Foxtailing geht. 👉 Und genau das ist der Punkt: Sie war eigentlich schon mal „fertig“ – hat dann aber wieder angefangen weiterzuschieben. Dieses Foxtailing verzögert jetzt die eigentliche Endreife wieder, weil ständig neue, unreife Bereiche dazukommen. 👉 Der Großteil wirkt ready – aber einzelne Zonen ziehen das Ganze nach hinten. Und jetzt wird auch klar, wo der Name herkommt: 👉 sie wird erst jetzt richtig „white“. 👃 Geruch Süß, fruchtig, leicht cremig – dazu eine dezente würzige Basis. Kein brachiales Gas, sondern eher fein, rund und layered. Beim Öffnen kommt inzwischen auch ein leichter floraler Touch durch. ⏳ Reife & Timing Das eigentliche Thema bleibt: 👉 Kaum Amber auf beiden Pflanzen. Die Kush ist durch – aber ohne den letzten Reifeschritt. 👉 Die Gushers dagegen ist noch nicht mal komplett milchig und verzögert sich zusätzlich durch das Foxtailing. Das macht die Entscheidung nicht einfacher: Eine steht eigentlich schon zu lange, die andere zieht sich künstlich nach hinten. Kennt ihr das auch? Optisch fertig aber Trichome bleiben ewig cloudy kaum Amber, egal wie lange man wartet 👉 Wartet ihr weiter oder sagt ihr irgendwann: das ist ihr Peak? Schreibt mir das mal in die Kommentare, wie ihr das handhabt 👇 Oder wenn ihr eher fertig seid als ich – 👉 haut mal eure Tricks raus 😄 Vielleicht ist die Lösung ja auch ganz simpel: einfach früher anfangen… 🔜 Ausblick Ich lasse beide erstmal weiter laufen. Ich bin jetzt ein paar Tage weg – also kein tägliches Micromanagement und kein permanentes Checken der Trichome. 👉 Vielleicht ist genau das der Moment, wo sich endlich was tut. Einfach laufen lassen – und wenn ich zurückkomme, hat sich im besten Fall genau der Schritt gezeigt, auf den ich die ganze Zeit warte. Manchmal passiert mehr, wenn man einfach mal nichts macht. Grow on 🌱 🇬🇧 Flower Day 80 | Day 140 total 🌡️ Climate & Environment Temps dropped again outside – clearly noticeable in the tent. Humidity is around 55–60%, so the exhaust is working more actively again. 👉 Overall: cool & humid, but stable. 🌿 Plant Status Triangle Sherbet Kush 🍬 Looks finished for about two weeks now. No fresh pistils, fading leaves – classic end-stage look. 👉 But: trichomes remain mostly cloudy, almost no amber. Stable, but that final ripening step just won’t kick in. White Gushers 33 🍇 Still evolving – but very selectively. Buds are swelling further, but: 👉 not fully milky yet, still some clear trichomes present. New pistils are forming, mainly on foxtailing areas. 👉 That’s the key point: She already looked finished once – but then started pushing again. This foxtailing delays the final ripening, because new, immature parts keep forming. 👉 Most of the plant looks ready – but some areas keep pushing it back. And now the name finally makes sense: 👉 she’s only now turning properly “white”. 👃 Smell Sweet, fruity, slightly creamy with a subtle spicy base. Not overpowering gas – more refined and layered. Also getting a light floral note when opening the tent. ⏳ Ripeness & Timing Main issue: 👉 Still barely any amber. Kush is basically done – but missing the final step. 👉 Gushers is not even fully milky yet and is further delayed by foxtailing. That makes timing tricky: One is already overdue, the other keeps extending itself. Do you experience this too? Looks finished but trichomes stay cloudy almost no amber 👉 Do you wait longer or call it peak? Drop it in the comments how you handle this 👇 Or if you finish earlier than me – 👉 share your tricks 😄 Maybe the solution is simple: just start earlier… 🔜 Outlook I’ll let them run a bit longer. I’ll be away for a few days – so no micromanaging and no constant checking. 👉 Maybe that’s exactly what they need right now. Let them run – and hopefully that final step shows up while I’m gone. Sometimes less control means better results.😉 Grow on 🌱

Everything is growing beatifully. Just The bubblegum has alot of White marks on The leafs that i donst really Unterstand since No other is doing this. Even The Clone of her in The veg tent is doing The exact Same. Anyway im Happy with how everything is going. Just a few more weeks and We have done it.

I found this strain very easy to grow and responded very well given the hot/humid weather we have here on the island. This strain held up very well to pest and mold/mildew

she is doing really well. the buds are getting thicker and the smell is also getting a bit more intense. unfortunately it rained a lot last week and the humidity was very high. i hope that no mould has formed in the budss. the next week will be really sunny and she should still enjoy it. and i think i will harvest her in a week's time.
