Hi all 🧑‍🌾 Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update. Hope everyone keeping well and having a great week😁 Thank you so much for so much support on this bananas ride 🙏💜💚💜💚 Everything still going pretty well. Girls are developing and stretching like crazy. Athena currently Dec 14 90cm and main stem of Xena is not far of this height either. Unfortunately noticed first signs of calcium deficiency(my opinion) on Athena. Thankfully started feeding both girls with calmag weeks back but the dosage wasn't not enough for Athena. Started small treatment very next day on Dec 11 (see description below) I belive got my baby back on right track. Week 9 Dec 11-17 Dec 11 Watering was planned for Tuesday but due to calcium deficiency decided for a little treatment. Watered both girls with mixture of reduced content of growth nutes by 50% calmag at 1.2 ml per ltr. Reduced solution PH to 6.2 as apperently it's ideal for calcium consumption. Over period 4h I have watered Athena with 5ltr with couple runoffs. Xena 3ltr. Total of 7-10 leaves affected mainly at top colas close to the light. Dec 12-13 Purely observation and all looking well. Of course all affected leaves will progres of showing signs but good news is that growth and development booming and don't see any new leaves with symptoms. Very nice trichomes development in recent days and more and more colours. Dec 14 Second watering for this week 6.5l Increased calmag to 1.4ml per ltr and if still things will be looking well reduce to 1 or 1.2 on next feeding. Dec 15 Very nice respond on yesterday feeding. They definitely fatten over night and getting more and more frosty. Will need to remove some foliage soon as getting extremely bushy again. Dec 17 Xenas main stem top cola almost touched the light today. Tied her to left side of the cabinet, applied selective defoliation on both girls, tied few branches to netting and on the end of this busy day a third watering for this week. 7 ltrs beetwen both. Runoffs Xena PH6.4 Athena 6.3. Very nice week have to say. I belive that calcium deficiency on Athena is no longer a case here and both girls developing very nicely. Both are still stretching, buds are gaining in size and both girls started exploding with trichomes, Thank you all again for such amazing support 🙏peace and love brothers and sisters ✌️💚💜💚💜💚 Stay tuned for new week update 😉🧑‍🌾✌️💚

Easy strain without extra care.

en un par de dias acabo con la nutricion y empiezo lavado y solo agua de osmosis

Bueno, le salió la radícula en las primeras 24h, pero quise esperar a que se desarrollara más antes de transpartarla al sustrato, tras pasar más de 48h me quedé sorprendido que siguiera (aparentemente) igual, la pase a la tierra(💦mojada en el centro con 100ml del agua que utilicé para germinarla), se me hizo eterno esperar a que sacara la cabeza, tremenda alegría al 4 día ❤️🙌🌱, al ver el sustrato relativamente seco volví a mojar💦(esta vez con la mitad, 50ml aprox.). Decidí comer hummus (como ella jijiji) y ponerle el plástico de invernadero con la idea de manter la humedad alta💦💦💦

Well, my organic vegetables garden, in anticipation of growing weed has been at rest for twenty months. I started to amends with green manure from legumes and lawn mowing (expecially the last month, for ready availability of N). I've mixed 1 gallon of Vigor Plant Full (perlite, guano, peats) to improve drainage. All the roses around, the apple tree and the hedges were treated with deltamethrin so as to preventively reduce the population of aphids, whiteflies & red spiders. My vegetables & weed eventually will receive only spraying of nettle macerated. My girls spent the previous week outdoors night and day in their pots savoring the discrete temperature changes in my area. Now in the evening I will have to pay close attention to broadnose weevils and later to bedbugs. It will be a tough fight against the wind and heat. A whole week of full sun awaits them. Pineapple Kush shows strong genetics, she has tolerated very well strong wind and full sun (28 C° average temp) asking for watering twice a day. Maybe it will be the southern sun but she already smells slightly. 🤞

Day 41 Green Gelato is stacking up the buds... just a awsome strain already took some clones will put them under veg again when mommy is ready for the cut =) I need to water tomorrow I think Green Gelato is thirsty! Fruit Spirit going its way im really exited for the yield will see how this will go.... Sweet ZZ finally showing some nice trichome production and she starts to smell lovely. Im very happy with my grow I hope after this harvest I will never buy weed ever again! shoutout to Royal Queen Seeds for those awsome genetics favorite breeder company atm!

Planning on the harvest! Trichomes Mostly milky seeing a little amber maybe around 5% Pictures taken with iPhone SE.. looking into some new cameras like the Nikon COOLPIX p1000 or Sony A6700

Bloom 17

Evening all...back on it AGAIN!!!! Worst is, in the middle of a heat wave (Hottest day every recorded in this part of the world a couple of days in a row!!!)...still need to finish trimming my last crop!!! 😰 Will get that done over the next couple of days as these girls need rehoused!!! So, got a cloner at the start of the year...was planning on clone a spare wedding cake I had but that sort of went to pot and life got in the way and that didn't happen. As I also got a hold of an Ultrasonic Mist Generator, I thought I'd give this "Fogponics" Germination thing a go!!! Seeing as @Sweet_Seeds donated a few Magical Beans to my cause, I thought I'd give their genetics a whirl. The Red Hot cookies looked too cool to pass up on!!! So, got the beans popped on the 12th of July and by the Thursday, they were showing their wee heads. These are strong wee plants!!! Vigorous as you like!!! Got them into the 'fogponics' machine and let them rip (Under 2x11W T5 Sunblaster 6400K's and a Amazon Special LED light for extra Spectrum) and they seem to be coming on grand. Noticed some yellow spots on the leaves and in 2 minds if it was: A. calcium (As starter plugs are Coir and I didn't put calmag in the plug hydration mix - Jiffy Original plugs are supposed to be buffered for this!!!); B. if I should have broken and washed them out of the Coir and put them into straight Hydroton (The fog could have been saturating the Coir and choking the internal roots a bit) or C. if its just the abusive heat we've been having here (In a country where A/C is basically unheard off as heat doesn't exist outside!!! 😋). Roots are ripping out of the net pots now so they're about as ready for transplant as can be...just wanna give a day or 2 more to see if the heat here settles as I can't adequately cool the area they're going too - but then again, under LED so heat may be good as it doesn't heat the leaf surface up as much! Plus I have a couple of plants to trim...still hanging in their humidor tent when is needed again for growing! Think this will also be the retirement party for the Wilma. Going to build an Undercurrent Fallponics system when this run is done (Wont have time to get it setup before these girls need forever homes!!!). Have the crates bought and a bit of research done on how to DIY a build so hopefully this turns out to be a decent run. Also have a few people with building experience on hand to give advice. Since last grow: Lights have been upgraded to a Geekbeast 630W Pro LED (3500K Spectrum - UV 385nm and Far Red 730nm built in [won't use the 730's as they can't be run independent of the Main Lights...be wary of this if you buy one off Alibaba for the 730's built in!!!] - Will run the 385UV's though throughout the grow for more blue...will run then 3 hours after lights on to until 3hours before lights off). Also procured an InvisibleSun LED 730nm Flower Initiator (Will use this for EOD Far Red treatment to try a 13/11 flower cycle) and a Migro UVB310 fixture - For the Trikes!!! 😝. Have a Haliea 300A winging its way to me as we speak. Have some Non-Stick Micro-tips flying in from the Grand old US of A a will to get a better, more consistent yield. Think that's about all I have for now...Happy Growing all!!! 💪

Curing now. Strong smell

Day 75 to the big one, the other one nobody knows we got to keep vegging til my room ready FFS Beautiful root

I am so in love with watching them grow. PH 6.5 seems to be the sweet spot... I couldn't be more excited for the weeks ahead. I haven"t scene anything other then some sagging cus they were thirsty.. But that is a good thing. I want to fully train the roots so they have a nice spread in their pot. I learned that it is ALL ABOUT THE ROOTS !!! Healthy Roots are a Beautiful and Healthy Plant..

Day 35 Update Both plants have officially entered the stretch phase this week. I did some additional LST to keep the plants even and opened up the structure a bit more. A light defoliation was done as well to make sure all the stems are getting plenty of light and airflow. Flowering started toward the end of the week, things are looking strong and healthy so far.

Day68 HARVEST DAY big buds

Evolution 💪

17.3.25: So I watered with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 with 4ml Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag amino acids. I have really overdone the nutrients, I got carried away 😅 To try and rectify the situation, I've cut everything out except Cal-Mag amino acids. I will try to just stick to this with some Biosys, but I'm running out of that now, too. Anyway, with Or Without, I'm sure it'll balance out. Fingers crossed 🤞🌱✌️💚 21.3.25: The plants are all getting plain water PH'd to 6.4. I have removed all nutrients and water every plant 1-2 litres daily. I would probably have continued using the Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag amino acids. However, the NPK is 4-0-0. So, whilst it's great stuff, I don't need the extra nitrogen. I add Ecothrive Biosys to some of the waterings. Unfortunately, I have very nearly run out. So I'm using it on selected plants, which I think could use a bit of TLC. I checked the soil PH of all pots, and it was bang on 7.0 for each one. Substrate temperature was 19°C across the board. The soil moisture meter said the soil was dry in every pot: I chalk that up to being my medium, as it's very aerated and of low density. Also, I never water to run off. So I'm unconcerned about that. All being said, I'm hoping to see some of the plants stored nutrients be tapped into and try to balance things back out. They definitely have had a little too much feed. It does seem like apart from the leaves, they are all looking great! The plants are drinking heavily, and I watered 4ltrs to Do-sì-dos, 2ltrs to Pink Mist, 3ltrs to Bubble Kush, and 3ltrs to Gorilla Cookies. The pots had already completely dried out. So I'll definitely have to up my waterings. The colas are getting fatter, and ripening up slowly. Thanks for hanging out 🍃 ✌️ 💚 🙂

Here we go into flower. If what they say is true, we're in for a nice color show.
