I put the plants into an NFT system couple weeks ago. I could have waited a bit longer for the plants to develop a stronger root system before placing the rockwool cubes into NFT but I was being impatient because of the slow start and wanted to get the plants under proper light. Now two weeks later they are growing well with good root development. I switched the lights to flowering cycle about a week ago so they should start stretching soon. No preflowers yet.

wonderful Journey with this Strain. All Seeds germinated. All Plants growing vigor and very smooth. Only topped them twice. Plants get big and showed great Structure. The Budsites were big and buds itself knotlike and dense. Smelly and sticky.very courious how they taste Welldone hybrid Strain

So Friday will be day 70. I messed up a lot, did lst and used big pots so I'm thinking these might go 3-5 more weeks. They smelled so amazing a few times today though. First the purple punch, then the sour diesel, then the girl scout cookies, each gave off aromas one after the other a few times today. The purple punch smalls so sweet and delicious.

This week I cut a lot of foliage off. This way the lights can get to more buds. Weed inspires creativity.

Aquí empezó los problemas por el regulador...no podíamos bajar la potencia de 320w y los pelos se quemaron un poco, apesar de todo los colores empezaron a florecer! Buenos humos compañeros 🍁

So I just transplanted them into one gallon pots before they go into the growace aircube. The one that the helmet took off some of the leaf is starting to actually wanna live and still growing she’s a little runt as you see in the pictures but I have faith in her. I think they will sit in these pots for a week then into the ebb and flow system. Can’t wait to see what that system has to offer once I know I will have a 10% off link for anyone who’s interested in buying one. Until next week happy growing. So glad I got a garden back man it was driving me insane not having any plants!

Hi all 🧑‍🌾 Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update. Hope everyone keeping well and having a good week. Thank you so much for your support on this bananas journey 💜💚💜💚 I am so happy to see how girls are developing in recent days. It's seems that Athena finally stopped her stretch and hoping that Xena will follow her sister very soon. Buds are gaining weight and size rapidly. Lots of nice colours and tonnes of trichomes on those buds already. Week 10 Dec 18-24 Dec 18-19 Mainly observation. Xena is still stretching like crazy. both girls are developing beautifully. Dec 20 First watering for this week. 7.5 ltr beetwen both. Runoffs PH's Athena 6.2 Xena 6.3. Dec 21 Due to lack of light at lower parts of conopy decided for another selective defoliation, lowered a bit tallest branches with colas dangerously close to light by tieing them to netting. Couple cm will make a huge difference here. Could not clear well at the back wall of the cabinet due to limited access.I'm very happy with final result. Dec 22-23 Joyful observation of my 🍌💜👊girls development 🧑‍🌾 Dec 24 All is looking great. It's seems that stretch is finally stopped. Girls looking healthy and happy. Second watering for this week. 8 ltr beetwen both. Both runoffs PH 6.2. It's the end of this week. Happy Xmas everyone 🤶🎄❄️🎁☃️✌️💚🌲🎅🎄 Stay tuned for new week update ✨🍀✨✌️💚

End of Week 5B, pics are chronological since the last update. Hard not to take daily pics these days. Zero issues this week. Flushed her good before the midweek feed with about 5 gallons ph to clear out any buildup. Buds are becoming rock hard and I also changed her to 13 dark hours daily. Introducing Overdrive the next feeding so expect some bloom blowup for the next update. Till next week.

Ich war letzte Woche ziemlich im Stress weshalb ich die kleine Prinzessin, bis auf tägliches gießen natürlich, sich selbst überlassen habe. Ich habe jetzt nochmal die größeren Blätter entfernt und frische Erde ausgefüllt, damit sie jetzt ins Finale starte kann. Ich bin froh, trotz der wenigen Vorerfahrung zu diesem Punkt gekommen zu sein. Nun dauert es nichtmehr lange 😬

On week 5 of actual flowering the plants are coming along nicely and HSC GSC is looking the best so far but its still early :) WW is slow to start flowering just small amount of pistils so far small buds looks more like week 3 or 4 as far as flowering progression.

Been feeding just water ready for the chop. Some of them have all brown pistils and have pretty much stopped all together. The kalimist indica pheno is still flowering so I'll let it go until it looks ripe 👍

Hello everyone, Been busy this week working around the house so not much I can say. Heres a little video of there growing... See you guys next week

05/04/2022 Glad I waited she did bulk up buds very hard going to give 36 hours of darkness before I cut her and weigh results, She has been dark for 18 hours and starting to smell of moth balls and burnt rubber scent seems to be stronger than usual. Still some clear trichomes maybe L5 percent at most. I've never tried this darkness period before but seems to have a increase in smells at least. I have been trying to keep soil at about 60℅ of its water capacity (feel of pots weight) in anticipation of the dark period in fear of moulding while in the dark so I think I got it right. Besides mild drought stress from lack of water has been linked to higher THC Levels in end product. See you in 18 hours 😀✌️🏻 05/11/2022 7 days and 18 hours lol She is dry enough to snap stem so onto glass for curing, not much of a yield but thats partly my fault . But will try again In a better grow space. My last harvest for a while so I be back when smoking them up 05/28/2022 Deepest Purple buds testing on guest tonight.🙏🏻

i think pistills are changing more oranger this week.. but i guess buds are not growing fat this week .. something isn't right...

Week 8! Day 58: 2L (pH6.8) + 1ml CalMag + 1ml PK13-14 Today I learned that CalMag contains about 5% nitrogen. So, her nutrient solution comes down to about a half dose of 5-13-14 with added calcium and magnesium - kinda. More importantly, I assume it thus would be worth trying to abstain from CalMag just before harvest. Also, she seems thirsty and since her last nutrient solution was a week ago, I figured we might as well try a half dose of PK13-14. I'm aware she's still got the organic feed, but I'm also curious to learn whether this will burn her again - now that she's bulked up. The remainder of the week will probably consist of watering. Day 59: Still damp Decided to try and even out the canopy further. Remaining two highest branches have been pulled outward, light has been lowered. While the highest apex still reaches about 900 PPFD - which is more than ideal - the entire canopy now receives on average 600 PPFD, while slightly turning down the light intensity from 85% to about 80%. Addition: after browsing other diaries; the Northern Light Automatic strain information pages on Growdiaries.com, and RoyalQueenSeeds.com, I noticed that about 10 weeks after germination is her expected harvest time. That's one week out! I'll thus dial down on the nutrition and keep an extra eye on her water consumption. About half of her pistils are still white. If those start to turn rusty and her water consumption slows down, I assume her leaves will also start going yellow. With the nutrition solution of yesterday she should hold out until harvest, so any leaves turning yellow this week won't be caused by a deficiency, I assume. Day 62: Soil is dry but cool to the touch, no water Nothing much going on currently. She's done most of her bulking I assume. While the soil is dry, she's not showing signs of thirst so I'll water her tomorrow. I'm curious whether watering will increase the bud size. Day 63: 2L (pH6.5) bottom water. Opened up the tent about an hour before lights-on to water her with 2L tapwater pH-ed at 6.5. Instead of the regular top watering, I gave her a royal gulp on the soil and poured the rest in her runoff tray. Day 64: Humid, no water. Some extra defoliation of withered leaves. She won't be needing those as we're nearing the last week. There's the sporadic amber coloured trichome here and there. I've picked up advice saying that, when in doubt, you should give her another week or so and check again. Enjoy the last picture of this week, the money shot!
