Banana kush auto has all kinda potassium deficiency signs. My ph got out of control for too long, and she is showing it. She is starting to bulk, and outside of her new marks she is good size. I did a solution changed 4 days ago, and have been getting her stable since.

7/24/23 - Day 42 - Ok, so where to start? I'm going to go over the last couple days of issues/troubleshooting. We had an issue with the lights not coming on for a whole day/night cycle. That was a couple of days ago, and everything seems okay since then. I had some Canoeing/tacoing on the leaves once the lights were back on. I think I had the PH too low, 5.8. In flower, I should start moving it up the scale. Once I corrected the PH to 6.2, the canoeing/tacoing in the leaves seemed to be gone/almost gone. I'm REALLY worried about the height of the plant. She is only 12 in. from the light that I cannot move. I added a second scrogg net???? I don't know if that's done a lot, but I'm going to try and stop if from growing straight up. I think the best I can do is give it a lean. So Ill call this the ScoggGL (GangstaLean). You'll see some pictures up top as I start the ScoggGL I did the first big trim and pulled a 3-gallon bucket of fan leaves out. I cut off a few side branches I didn't want the plant to waste energy on. I trimmed so many leaves off it was crazy. The smells have been awesome! You all know the smell of the fresh plant stems and leaves as you trim and rub across them. It's one of my favorite smells, which is in full effect. I noticed that I have some pistils growing. I know what that means, shes going to have some flowers here in the next week. I couldn't be more excited!!!!! The roots are just downright ruthless; they have been growing out of control. I have a great picture of them in there with no water. I should note that I did two things that might have solved the Tacoing in the leaves. It could have been one or the other, but it also could be a combo of both things. I did the trimming to get some airflow between the leaves and changed the target for my PH from 5.8 to 6.2. When moving into flowering, I should have already done that. But I did both things while the leaves were Tacoing, and now they are not. I wanted to make sure I noted that. 7/26/23 - Day 44 - Things are looking great. No more tacoing, she's growing and still drinking about 2+ gallons a day of water. I hope the vertical growth stops soon, I want to remove a ton more fan leaves, and I'm hoping that it spends more time growing around than up, I'm keeping some leaves on just to slow some vertical growth. 7/27/23 - Day 45 - She's sleeping right now, but I will chop some more fan leaves when she wakes up. She's growing too tall, and I need to find a way to stop her. I think shocking her system will help stunt her growth. How crazy is this, what a conundrum I'm in. Normally I stress out trying to find the right time to trim to avoid stunting growth. I always keep my plants busy and do one or two chops. I think they need to grow as mother nature intended. Let them grow and do one, maybe two fan leave chops. That's always been my motto and its always worked out great for me. This is now the exact opposite. Feels weird even thinking about it, doing a leave chop two weeks into flower..... ARE YOU INSANE!!!!!! Lol The 2nd chop has happened. I took a ton of fan leaves off. It's time for the plant to slow down heal and start working on the buds! Let's see how this goes over the next couple of days. I added a timelapse of me chopping her up. 7/28/23 - Day 46 - After adding more water last night, I was checking PH, and I did a quick check on the ppm from the nutes. If it went from 600ppm down to 130ppm in a couple of days. So we decided to give her another dose of nutes so she has something to eat. I'll update you after she wakes up for the day.

Day 63 - Thunderhaze Auto I think I got a little lightburn but things are looking really frosty, this girl drinks a gallon plus a day so I've stopped using RO water because I was bringing it in 5 gallon bottles which is getting too much of a hassle and cost so she is going to get tap water from now on but I'll use RO water again later when I flush. I was feeding the full grow/bloom/micro line up just about every other day but im going to cut back to only 2 times a week and ill feed with Recharge 2 times a week and all other waterings inbetween with just a little Terpinator.

So she really stretched super hard when she geared up for bloom. Over night she hit me with 6 inches of growth. Leaving my grow light far to close for the fragile new growth that was coming in. It was a lot worse mid grow week last week. I re adjusted my lighting SMH. Her tips slightly recovered but They will never fully recover. Other than that... shes stack amazing. Super bushy and LOTS of budsites. Bunch of donkey dock cola candidates. If I can stop beating em up with light intensity. She spans the full 2x2 like a beast. What an autoflower. I preventative treated her again with Dr zhymes. Shes due for another shower mid week. Got her on a solid balanced feed. I will adjust levels as needed from here. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

Desde el momento uno fue fácil de cultivar, no tuve ningún problema en todo su desarrolló. Como planta supero todas mis expectativas, se encuentran densos y muy pegajosos los cocos. En algunos hay partes de color violeta/lila. Y por ultimo recomiendo mucho cultivar esta genética por lo sencillo que fue cultivarla y sus resultados finales, todo de diez.

Water Only when needed but its drinking more every otherday and adjusting lights when needed...... Rain Water Only ....... ( DAY 48 AND IT SHOWS ZERO DEFICIENCIES ) IM ALSO DOING VERY LITTLE, SLIGHT DEFOLIATION ( DAY 48 AND YET ZERO RESIN PRODUCTION ) I am a little concerned due to the amount of bud developing but time will tell ??.....

Mar 31st Week 16 Changed nutrients to straight Dense Bud Compactor 1 gram/ litres @ 900-1000 ppm for 2 days CR # 1 showing signs of root wrought I removed the slimy parts of the roots and will watch closely On April 2nd I will add the rest of the nutrients to the existing solution April 2nd Fresh nutrients today, all nutrients added 8 litres of fresh water + 6 litres of the existing Dense Bud solution @ 1100 ppm CR # 1 is dying due to root wrought I removed most of the roots today. I changed all the water today with this one. I’m hoping to get it to harvest, but things don’t look good. I will probably flush this soon to harvest what I have. CR # 2 is doing fine as far as roots. Buds are smaller on this one but may fill out more with the Dense Bud Compactor. April 6th Switched CR # 1 to flush solution Root wrought was sever and unfortunately 90% of the root mass had to be removed Time to save what I have

Another strong week here. The blumats are working well at this point so the girls get adequate water intake. She continues to fatten up, hairs ripen up. The trichomes are really building at this point. And the bud to leaf ratio is very good at this point. This whole run has a repeating theme, I need a cloner to keep some of these cuts

Aktueller Zustand der Pflanze (siehe Bild): Diese zweite Pflanze im Grow zeigt sich als das Sorgenkind des Durchgangs und hat die Herausforderungen, mit denen wir zu kämpfen hatten, deutlicher widergespiegelt. * Wuchsform und Streckung: Im Gegensatz zur Nachbarpflanze zeigt diese Pflanze eine ausgeprägte vertikale Streckung, insbesondere im Bereich der Hauptcola. Dies deutet auf ein "Spargeln" hin, das möglicherweise durch unzureichende Lichtintensität in den frühen Phasen, genetische Veranlagung oder suboptimales Training verursacht wurde. Die Energie scheint sich stark auf die Hauptachse konzentriert zu haben, während die Seitentriebe weniger stark entwickelt sind. * Blütenentwicklung: Die Blüten sind zwar vorhanden und zeigen eine beginnende Harzproduktion, wirken aber insgesamt weniger dicht und kompakt als die der ersten Pflanze. Die Blütenmasse pro Cluster ist geringer, und die Struktur ist etwas luftiger. * Blattgesundheit und Stresssymptome: Hier zeigen sich die Auswirkungen der Probleme am deutlichsten. Viele Blätter weisen Verfärbungen auf, die über die natürliche Reifung hinausgehen, darunter helle Vergilbungen und potenzielle Anzeichen von Nährstoffmängeln oder -blockaden. Auch Verdrehungen und Krümmungen an einigen Blättern sind sichtbar, was auf Stress durch die pH-Volatilität und die Algenkonkurrenz hindeutet. Herausforderungen und Erkenntnisse aus diesem Grow: Diese Pflanze hat die Auswirkungen der pH-Volatilität und des Algenbefalls auf der Steinwolle stärker zu spüren bekommen. Die instabilen pH-Werte haben die Nährstoffaufnahme erschwert, und die Algen haben zusätzlich Nährstoffe entzogen und das Wurzelmilieu beeinträchtigt. Dies hat zu den sichtbaren Stresssymptomen und der weniger optimalen Blütenentwicklung geführt. Learnings für den nächsten Grow: Die Erfahrungen mit dieser Pflanze unterstreichen die Notwendigkeit, die pH-Stabilität und die Algenprävention von Anfang an in den Griff zu bekommen. Die geplanten Maßnahmen für den nächsten Durchgang – kleinere Steinwollwürfel und eine umfassende Abdeckung mit Tonkugeln – sind entscheidend, um solche Probleme zu vermeiden und das volle Potenzial jeder Pflanze zu entfalten. Ausblick: Obwohl diese Pflanze mehr Schwierigkeiten hatte, ist es wichtig, aus den Beobachtungen zu lernen. Sie liefert wertvolle Einblicke, wie wichtig ein stabiles und sauberes Anbauumfeld ist. Die Erkenntnisse aus diesem Grow werden dazu beitragen, zukünftige Durchgänge noch erfolgreicher zu gestalten.

Day 21: First topping. Happy to removed the light-stressed part of the plant from the equation if only for cosmetic reasons. I waited for 5 nodes before the topping. Day 22: Godammit, the light failed again. Turned it off and waited for it to cool down. Turned it back on and it worked. Lost 1 hour of light. Day 23: Because of previous light stress and canopy temperature, I felt that 35cm is a good distance for the light. Day 25: First LST on the new growth tips. Started the mainline. Day 26: Again the light is failing to come on. I rewired once again, cursing my very existence, and it worked again. Again lost an hour of light in the morning. Continued refining the LST, and seeing how far I can push it. Noticed a slight tear at the base of one of the mains. Since the plant energy is coming from below and there is no noticeable affect on growth I'm going to ignore it. Checked the roots - look healthy. Though the new growth tips are not completely symmetrical, those leaves look good enough to eat. Trimmed the excess fan leaves. Topped up with a small amount of nutrients. Day 27: light didn't come on again. I rewired again, but this time it was stone cold refusing to do anything. Again I cursed my existence and all of life. Returned to grow store, turns out bulb was defective after all. Again lost 4 hours of light. But at least now I know the problem is solved. Rene at the grow store is a champ though, very helpful guy. The new bulb is noticeably brighter also. Maybe this was affecting growth? Also once this issue was fixed, I noticed some small amount of nutrient burn on the leaves tips. Rebalanced nutrients. Was 1.9 mS/m lowered to 1.65 mS/m, then to 1.48 mS/m. Must be more careful in future when upping the dosage but the water conductivity is now less than before (1.55 mS/m) so this should be ok. Also lowered pH of water slightly since it was 6.0. It's currently showing 5.2 but experience has taught me that this measurement will comfortably go back up to 5.7. water pH is seemingly constantly rising as the plant grows, and adjusting pH is really more art than science. (Edit: It was 5.7 the next morning, so ya ... )

This Blue Dream’Matic from 420 Fast Buds is on the same timeline as my Purple Lemonade Auto. We’re entering week 10 from seed. I haven’t topped this one unlike the Purple Lemonade . Been a pleasure to grow. The smells are amazing, trichome production has been great , and the buds have been getting pretty thick! Definitely one of the stickiest plants I’ve handled. No complaints with this strain. I’ll post a harvest post next week or so once they get chopped down. Thanks for the progress follow! 🤘🏼

its growth is bad .. it will not grow more than that ... wrong with its genetic error ... and I think it will not grow more than that ... I'll leave it there ... to continue its bad development ... and that will not produce nothing......

Esta fue su última semana con nutrientes, no engordo mucho, creo que mi error fue excederme con los nutrientes a lo largo de su ciclo, yo aproximo que me dará unos 50 gramos masomenos, no es mucho pero es trabajo honesto jaja 😆 la próxima semana será de puro flush ya para darle corte
