(12/23-12/29, days 56 to 62)
Hope everyone enjoys the pictures. I will try to add a video and black back or cover pics by end of week every week.
Week 6 Notes & Observations:
No new issues to note, no mites found after the first and I have used Spinosad twice now just in case. P2 is getting stressed over ties and no ring, so I decided they will both go on a ring after i broke another branch without realizing it. Found it the next day and then topped the other side to gain two colas there - still 8 set but with varied start time's and points. Still looking to flip around new year’s day.
Day 58 (last feed was day 55)
Tested and Calibrated my ph pens. Starting weight from each pot was 18 lbs and 8 oz, this time P1 weighed 12lbs 1oz. (12lbs 10oz before last feed) and P2 weighed 11lbs 8oz before feed (11lbs 8oz before last feed). Each plant got 1.5 gallons of purified water with a mix of Veg/Bloom Mix concentrates - 300ppm Veg Mix (recipe on week 2) and 190ppm Bloom Mix (recipe on week 5) with 1.5ml of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) . The ph on this feed was balanced to 6.75ph (6.25 last time). After feed this time, P1 weighed 21lbs 5oz and P2 also weighed 21lbs 11oz (both weighed 20lbs 9oz after last feed). I got ~8 cups of runoff on P1 and 10 cups on P2 this time (8 cups of runoff on P1 and 8 cups on P2 after last feed). Runoff for P1 ph was 6.42 with 970ppm (6.36 with 1110ppm last feed) and P2 was 6.41 with 980ppm ( 6.35 with 1170ppm last feed). no top soil tests this time as ph is mostly showing no issues - next feed will be 1.5 gallons of de-chlorinated water and 6.5 to 6.75ph again - I dont see any issues from feed or training.

Not much changed this week in regard to growth. Except the fattening of buds is all I’m waiting on. A few more pistils are darkening n there are plenty of trichomes on the buds n leaves! Even big leaves r covered. Trichomes r mainly milky n clear with a tiny amount of amber. Hoping these buds get a nice bit bigger before I must give her the chop!

Plants are growing at a nice pace especially dealing with the extra high PH runoff

Day 22. Work forced me to open tent 20 min earlier and i had to do shortest watering ever, like in 5 min ...
Its hard to implement growing into 12 hours shift, especially during flowering...
But girls look nice, drink quick, should be good result, unless .... ;)))))))))
Day 23. Girls still run up and i have only 20 cm left max ...
Supercroped most streching Middle Clone top, one side is shooting strong, will have to repeat action with it as well in couple days ...
So all is good !!!
Day 24. All got full feed. Supercroped branch is ok , all leaves are up !!!
Got my last delivery, now lady bugs and theirs larvae has new support. When was working with plants yesterday i haven't seen any thrips, but order was made, so i rather use them ...
Day 26. Had to clean predators balast from flowers,so i touched them ....
Oh boy !!! Wanna chop them now ;))) i think thats one of tastes i was chasing, now waiting is pure PAIN !!! ;))
It looks like i pushed them a bit too far with double feed attempt ... so now , water, water + silica, water + calmag, water + molasses , and only then new feed again.
Happy Growing !!!

WEEK 6 (Day 36-42)
My Runtz have now nicely adjusted to the flowering phase. The stretch is beginning, and the plants are slowly gaining height. However, I’m trying to keep them as small as possible since my space is somewhat limited at the moment.
The two plants are in a dimly lit corner of my tent but currently receive 24-hour light because I still have other plants inside. I’ve already fertilized them a bit with everything.
They’re still thriving beautifully.

Bloom week 2 is going exactly as planned. The SCROG is now fully filled with a very flat and even canopy, covering the entire 4×4 grid. I finished the last structural work by lollipopping the plant completely from below and stopped all training. From this point on she can stretch freely and focus all her energy on flower development.
Bud sites are well defined across the whole canopy and the plant looks healthy and balanced. Feeding is dialed in with stable pH and moderate EC, no signs of over- or underfeeding. Light intensity was increased gradually and the plant is responding very well. Overall a very clean transition from stretch into early flower, setting the stage for dense buds in the coming weeks.

Not much training this week...leave it to bloom and do its thing.
Maybe light defoliation towards the end of the week

Hi all,
Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update.
Thank you so much for your all support on this bananas journey 💜💚💜💚
Week 12
Jan 1 - Jan 7
I am so happy seeing how my girls are developing. All it's going great. 2 waterings of 8ltr on 03/01 no runoff and second on 06/01 9.5ltr! Runoffs PH at 6.2. Purchased larger dehumidifier and installed on 03/01 instantly humidity decreaseed from 55-59 to 50-55 on avg. and at night from 62-69 to 54-60. Light from 01/01 on max power output 110 watts. Nutes slightly adjusted. Buds on both girls gaining size, weight. Trichomes on Athena mostly milky and clear with only very few ambers. Xena mostly 50/50 clear and milky,
They are smelling gorgeously, not sure if I should smoke or eat them first.
Next week will still feed with nutes and keep an eye on trichomes development but it seems that girls are not in a hurry at all. That's okay me neither 😁
Stay tuned for next week entry very soon!
Peace and love brothers and sisters ✌️💚

Casey's Rollex OG is growing good. She is transitioning more into flowering and should be toward the end part of her stretch. She was lollipopped today and a selective defoliation done across the canopy. She has been eating a lot and is looking good. Thank you Spider Farmer and DutchFem Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱
Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇.

Noyce, ok so we on track now but still not see that truly vigorous growth. I'm doing my best to move her under the deck when it rains to not dilute the nutes too much with rain water but i feel something is off a little. the leaves seem a little dark and a like hmmmmm a little to rigid or thick, not that nice lime green the whole way throuhgout you like to see with rapid growth. maybe the ph or mayb a slight nitrogen toxicity or possibly the combination of the two. So today i have her less of the growth nute and upped the cal meg slightly with a higher ph around 6.35 to see if i see some postive effects from this. I'm wondering if anyone has anytips on watering and such for outdoor girls in pots? still optimistic i'll get enough flower to achieve my main goal. to get high affffff watching pineapple express while smoking it. which im sure everyone does hahahha i can see the lady parts just coming out now where as the ones in the tent are about a week into flower

Day 15 - 1.3L water
Plant #3 is taller and with less ramifications than her sisters, i really dont know if its because of the soil, or just genetics..
(Since its my first grow, i wont do LST or anything, just whatch them grow and tucking leaves under)
Day 18 - 1.5L water + 0.7 rootfast + 0.8 terra leaves (for BB, #1 and #3) and 0.5 rootfast + 0.8 NRG Growth-C (for #2)
Just to campare diferent nutes 😁
The sunglasses in the video are really amazing, always protect your eyes 😎 (Method Seven Operator HPS+)
