Aug 10: doing quite well and is still the tallest of the four plants. Manifolded to 8 colas, and she has the most sativa type leaves of the four plants. Lots of rain lately but still needed lo be watered twice today as always. Top dressing of malted barley and Gaia Power Bloom. Aug 13: don’t take flash pics unless you’re immediately using a 730 nm light as a bloom booster. The far red light puts the plant into dark mode two hours faster. I figure this far red light counteracts the flash which is good side benefi.

I made some extract and made some edibles and added it to the diary! This diary may get a little unorthodox because they’re in the jungle down the centre line but will still document as much as I can and get close ups of the bud sites and buds as time goes on! Shouldn’t be too challenging but it’s a challenge lol it’s all doing great though! Better than I expected!

Week 6 of flower about another 2 to 3 weeks to go . Buds are forming Nicely but I’ve been a little heavy on the nutrients so I’m trying to remedy that .

I can see why this strain won an award, these are some good genetics. I have never grown cannabis until now and the yield was much larger than I expected for my first grow ever, exactly 50.8 grams from a single plant in a 5 gallon fabric pot. I started low stress training at three weeks and was able to get around 9 decent sized tops with minimal daily maintenance. The quality of the bud was resinous, semi dense, with many thick trichomes and large cloudy heads which made the potency quite strong. The buds formed in intriguing sticky stacks with many pistils, buds erupted from all sides and the color was a very dark purple covered with dark orange pistils, I enjoyed simply looking at its amazing structure. The scent was very pungent and sweet berry and almost soda like. The effects were indica and sativa hybrid with a dominant indica effect. It had a very relaxing effect with a strong head high and a calming couch lock effect which I enjoyed. Overall it was a fun experience to watch the plant grow and then harvest and indulge in its dankness, I will definitely be growing another fast-buds seed soon and the quality of the buds inspired my friend to grow some gorilla cookies :).

wow!!!!! she's amazing :) her buds already look stiff, and she's still ripening :) Zamnesia Runtz auto is great for small spaces, I can also smell her amazing scent, I have no doubt that she'll have a great smoke :) the girl will only get 6.3ph water from now on, -washing :) I think she has about 2 weeks left until the finish :) I can't take all the credit for it, my Cat helps me :) watch the video :).

Another week has passed, and we're closer to the end than I estimated. I chopped their mom on Day 70 and expected similar for her offspring, but we're now on Day 49, and the girls look to be done in a week or two. I've started seeing more frost, which indicates that the trichomes are turning cloudy. No amber yet, though. So there's that. It will take a while longer. But 21 days? With the senescence I'm seeing?

I had a fun experience growing this strain. She started out strong and finished pretty strong! The buds are covered in THC and smells sweet. The only thing I would really do better next time is trying not to nutrient burn her as much as I did towards the end. I also experimented with harvest time and came to the conclusion that the it's best to harvest a few weeks after their recommended time if you want denser buds (in my opinion). I do wish the buds were a bit more dense but I'm not a pro grower and that could be the reason for that. It's all a learning experience. It could be the strain because I'm going a Gorilla Cookies (FastBuds) and those buds are huge and don't have as many leaves. Overall I'm blessed with the outcome and I'm going to enjoy the perfectly dried buds soon :D I hope you all enjoy the little videos and music! haha I've only grown one plant before this which resulted in less than an eighth of bud so I'm beyond happy to say the least lol Let me know if you have any questions regarding growing and for some possible tips! Happy growing Growmies!

Hi everyone 😁 Welcome back in another week update! Thank you all for this amazing support on this bananas journey💚💚💚 Uploading and updating each week content on daily bassis so please revisit this diary if week not over yet. So far all going great. Girls looking very healthy and happy. Due to my short trip had to leave my 🍌💜👊 girls unsupervised for 3 days. Was stunned when opened my cabinet on the Dec 5th. Athena stretched like crazy. Good 3 inches. She better slow down as not much roof space left for her. May tie some taller branches to netting if necessary. Introducing blooming nutes for the first time this week on December 6th at smaller dosage and on the second watering as listed. Week 8 Dec 4 - Dec 10 Dec 5 Leaves tucking Dec 6 Heavier selective defoliation on both girls. Athena fully lolipopped and Xena at 75%. Watered with 8 ltr beetwen both with perfect runoofs PH 6.4. Girls were very thirsty 🤤 Dec 7-8 Just enjoying how my girls developing. Frost has landed and they are start showing colours. All is looking great. Dec 9 Second watering for this week 7 ltr beetwen both. Runoffs PH 6.4 Even with so much difrence in size of my 🍌💜👊 girls it seems that they are drinking my juice almost equally. Dec 10 Applied selective defoliation and tied 3 tallest branches of Athena to netting to avoid any potential burns on these beautiful baby colas. It's the end of the week! Thank you all again for such a great support, all the likes, dm's, comments and follows 💚💜💚💜 Stay tuned for coming week update 😁✌️💚

Put the seeds into the soil about 1cm deep, mist sprayed. I've put them on a window sill as it's predicted frost tomorrow and the day after 😳 in the middle of May! Transferred outside to the pollytunnel after 48hrs on a windowsill. Watered with rainwater.

I rinsed with clean water. Both plants received 1 liter of water each, since I grow without drainage so that they have a clean transition to flowering. Even though I grow organically, rinsing never hurts, quite the opposite. I thought that Anesia could no longer surprise me, but with each new strain I see how wrong I was. I had to reduce the light intensity to 60%, the think tank didn't accept it, We are gradually increasing the intensity. Currently it is at 65% and 35 cm away from the peak. peace

* ********* Week 7 - May 23 to 29, 2020 - Day 43 to 49 ********** * Good veg week but was expecting more of a flower week😒 Pulled them out and did some stripping. Buds not setting and these two girls are not flipping like the other autos on the go. Patience not being one of my strong suits, in the past I moved plants around into lower light intensity and it helped them to set their buds. These girls bud sites were not setting in early this week so the girls were put into the veg tent and put into a 12/12 light cycle, Wednesday Day 47. They stayed this way the rest of the week. The other girls are well on their way and these two girls are not coming along. Forcing them to set their buds into 12/12 becuase they all flower at that point😃 I could work on being patient and give them another week or two as some strains just take that long...........45 days though for these girls and most flip by this time. Other than my lack of patience the growth is doing well and GSC is doing well and growing out of her funk from the transplant more. Looking rather odd with the roots wrapping over her.......poor girl......we will love her and look after her and in the end smoke the shit out of her frosty buds😂😂😂 Little more detail........ May 23/20 - Day 43 - GSC feed only - 5L with Velokelp, Massive @ 2ml, Dual Fuel @ 1.5ml, Rezin, Liquid Wt, Sensyzime @ 1ml = 750ppm and 5.9pH - GSC has some hairs popping out over night. She is looking healthy today. - GSC2 is fighting it all. She has been though a lot. She is taller now and wider but her bud sites “floppy” looking and pistols not plentiful yet. May 24/20 - Day 44 - dry out day - Moved GSC girls into Veg tent today - problem is the humidity is only 50% and temp is only 73 degrees. May 25/20 - Day 45 - water in the morning.....did a leaf strip int he afternoon......an evening watering with Vitamin B to calm them down a bit. - 7:30am - 2L each with Sensyzime, Piranha, rhino skin, Rezin @ 1.5ml = 335ppm and 5.9pH - the microbes and enzymes😃👍 - 8:30pm - 2L each with Vitathrive & VeloKelp @ 1.5ml = 350ppm and 5.8pH - got some seaweed in there as well to calm them down........4L total in one day is not over doing it and with such low ppm. - GSC is much thinner in appearance now. - GSC2 is tough to do much. Stripped some inner growth but just need her to get bigger overall in order to clean her up properly. May 26/20 - Day 46 - dry out day. - GSC was moved back into the flower tent last night. Just give her the time she needs to transition, - Left GSC2 in veg tent alone for now. - GSC is 17” tall and GSC2 is still at 11” range. May 27/20 - Day 47 - feed day for only GSC - she was given 3L with Bud Ignitor @ 2ml, Dual Fuel @ 1.5ml, Piranha @ 1ml = 875ppm and 6.0pH - GSC2 was still heavy to lift. - Moved GSC back into the veg tent and set the light cycle at 12/12 to ensure she flips. - GSC2 is looking stagnant. May 28/20 - Day 48 - GSC2 needs watering as its been two days. - 2L given with Massive @ 4ml. Vitathrive, Sensyzime @ 2ml, Dual Fuel @ 1.5ml = 1350ppm and 6.0pH. - added another 0.5L of water to bring down the ppm to 1100........was too high. - GSC is looking a little more relaxed today. No bud sites yet.....only one night though, - GSC2 is looking more like she is transitioning though😀 - Will give them a couple of days at the reduced light cycle. May 29/20 - Day 49 - dry out day - girls still in veg tent under same light cycle. - feel like GSC has grown bigger but no bud sites yet,

DAY 28 flowering: Hi all Hope we are all fine and dandy in the grow diaries world this week. It has been a steady week this week with the ladies now focusing purely on bud site development . The only lady not really thriving is the smaller Mexican airline #1. It does seem she will be all plant and very little yield at this point but we will see it through. She isn't poor by any means but I do think she will have a inferiority complex within these beauties. Heehee Thankfully the other five ladies are powering on and producing some potential big bud sites. The stars of the grow are the Strawberry pie girls. These plants are huge and very, very productive . The lowers are developing some nice bud sites that in themselves look like beasts developing. They have really dense looking flowers that will no doubt become thick and possibly need some support on the side growth but seeing the stem strengths , they may be ahead of that issue themselves already. A perfect strain for an outside run for sure and with no training beside the tip spreading , they have easily now reached approx 4ft tall. The buds start really low on each limb with some node spacing initially large but the growing tips and main stem have a more stacked up bud appearance forming. I think they could possibly top my personal best for the autos at this rate. Both have about the same structure and bud building so I would hazard the same phenotype too. This is the second time I have grown this strain and the last one was very similar too. Very stable and should give some top notch nugs out. Six Shooter #1 is only slightly smaller than the Strawberry pie and has just as many productive side branches that want to show off too. Her sibling #2 was grown a lot flatter after the tip spreading and seems lost down low in the canopy now. She has a lot of buds tucked away but could easily be overgrown by the mexican#2 and Strawberry Pie #2 , if I am not pro active with her progress. As mentioned earlier, the Mexican airlines are both healthy and happy but the #2 is far more productive than the #1 . I do expect that the #1 will harvest a little after the others and that she may come through in the end. Overall these strains are genetic perfection this run . They have done their own thing with only the tip spreading being my intervention initially , and they have produced 6 perfect looking plants that are clearly different strains . From past experiences with these 3 strains , "The best is yet to come " with the development of their unique looking buds. Here comes some down and dirty bud porn only viewable to the faithful.!!! Be lucky all , catch you soon

8 Weeks The "stretch" is done, still a small and really bushy plant, did a little lolipoping but not much. Increased EC and will increase it more to around 2 next week. Hope I don't get mold in this big mess. Some forming buds are really stretched out? idk, never had that before, maybe due to the heat? sadly can't do anything about that, summer. Added Spiderfarmer Glow30 light and they were flicker heavy, removed them soon after installing them, unusable, not only for the video but the light also made me dizzy and sick. After that I installed a single Mars Hydro VG80 bar. Also Installed the Mars Hydro Adlite IR15. Values are average of the day.
