👌It’s progressing, slowly but surely for my 4 young banana krumble 👶🍌 For this grow, I plan to let each plant grow with a large main bud, without topping. Next week I will cut the lower branches closest to the ground. ----------------------------------------------------------- 💧Watering: 1L on day 9 and 0.5L on day 12 I use tap water, adjust the ph to around 5.8 and water ------------------------------------------------------------ 🤩Equipment of the week : Light FC3000 Mars hydro. power 80% at 50cm Extractor 6 inch Mars Hydro. power 1/10. ON 24/24h 2 fans to circulate the air inside the tent. Each on for 30 minutes then off for 1 hour. this rhythm repeats itself in a loop Heating mat Romberg 95x95cm. ON 45 minutes. OFF 30minutes. In a loop I am adding anti-midge bird stickers 🐦 ------------------------------------------------------------ Thank you for your visit and your support with the likes, comments.

1/4 - start of week 5, the broken branch isn't looking good. I installed the 5 arm light which is my biggest light for the veg compartment. 500ppfd right now, drop it 1 inch and I'm just a bit over 600 at canopy level. I'm hoping to get her to recover and ill bend the 2 remaining branches towards each other to fill the gap for a 3 arm lady, still planning to top but now will get 6, 12, and 24 tops...hopefully 1/5 - slight training day, I bound the 3 branches so that they were more uniform and evenly spaced out in the pot. I'll let her take shape a few days with the restraints and the. Top her maybe Friday. 1/7 - she got her topping. I'm leaving 2 nodes on each branch for a total of 12 tops right now. She will get one more topping before its all over for a total of 24 tops, probably 2 weeks out on that. Feeding in the next day or 2. Update: dropped the fan speed to 2 for temp and humidity testing. 1/9 - RAW Feeding tonight, she is starting to recover well from the topping, I now have 15 or so tops with one of the 3 arms splitting into 7 tops rather than 4. I think I will leave her this way to veg out to the height I need without further topping. I’m planning on training the shoots out to the sides so many more tops may develop as new nodes come through. I’m just really hoping she doesn’t start to flower on me early!! 2L distilled water 3g Grow 2g Kelp 0.57g Cal/Mag 2g Microbes Grow Stage 0.63g Amino Acids 0.14g Enzymes 6.0ph 66.9*F 1060ppm Also found a new way to mix my RAW nutrients without having them stick to the bottom...small landscaping pond pump! It gets the water moving nicely and I just drop the dry nutes in, mixes it for me and I can easily fine tune PH and test PPM without having to shake and take samples! Huge win. 1/10 - Another week in the books. Did some fan leaf tucking so the tops had direct light. I'm still trying to grow her sideways so I'm thinking a solid 3 or 4 more weeks of veg. Things should speed up now though. I dont think I will be topping again but we shall see. Topping again would guarantee 30 tops which according to my math is a bit too many for my grow space.

Week 3 flower. Plants look amazing and the nose 🎶! Top dressed with 1/4 cup COM FBM and 1/4 cup earthworm castings. This grow will be only living soil or organic as people dispute the definition. The FrostyBananas has strong limonene terps, which is by far my favorite. The AppleCandie smells like super sweet candy with a hint of cough medicine. So far I am very impressed this the # Elev8 Seeds!

🌸 Week 13 | Flower Week 10 — The Sunday Driver Finale Is Near 💫 Here she is — our last standing Sunday Driver, Pheno #3, still bulking, swelling, and shining like she knows she’s the grand finale. Her sister has already been harvested, but this one… she’s taking her sweet time, adding weight, density, and an incredible layer of frost that sparkles like morning dew under the grow lights. 🌿 Growth & Beauty The buds are now thick, heavy, and packed tight with trichomes — truly a work of art. Every cola leans a little more each day, heavy with resin and color. She’s still stacking new calyxes, pushing deeper into her final stage. She carries those deep, rich tones — greens turning into soft yellows and even a few touches of amber at the tips. She’s breathing life with every sparkle. ⚙️ Environment & Gear Still under the Future of Grow Black Series 600W, with ThinkGrow Model One and ICL 3300 supporting — the light balance is magic, giving her full coverage and power. Air circulation remains driven by the AeroFan and Spider Farmer 6-inch extractors, while the TrolMaster system keeps everything in perfect sync — including the eye in the sky, the TrolMaster camera, watching over every sparkle. 🌸 Quick Recap From seed to now — what a ride it’s been. Germinated with love, raised in Aptus-enhanced Supersoil, nurtured by the perfect blend of Aptus Holland and Plagron nutrients. She’s been through her sister’s harvest, the challenges, the adjustments — and now stands as the final act, a symbol of patience and beauty. 💧 Current Feed We’re keeping the same steady rhythm with Regulator, CalMag Boost, All-in-One Liquid, and Top Booster, with just the right balance to keep her finishing strong. 🌬️ What to Expect We’re in the final stretch. Trichomes are cloudy, some just kissing amber. Aroma is thick, sweet, and earthy — that Sunday Driver signature. Probably one more week, maybe two, before the perfect moment arrives. From here on, it’s all about observation, intuition, and letting nature do her last dance. 💙 Gratitude To everyone following along — from the beginning or joining now — thank you. To the lovers, the haters, the growers, and the dreamers, thank you.And to our amazing partners and friends — Aptus Holland, Plagron, Future of Grow, ThinkGrow, Spider Farmer, TrolMaster, and of course Zamnesia — thank you for helping us bring these stories to life. This grow has been about learning, patience, and passion — and this Sunday Driver is driving us straight into harvest magic. 🌿✨ 🎥 Don’t forget to join us on YouTube to see her shine in full 4K — the light, the frost, the color, the beauty. #SundayDriver #Week13 #FlowerWeek10 #GrowDiaries #AptusHolland #Plagron #FutureOfGrow #ThinkGrow #SpiderFarmer #AeroFan #TrolMaster #Zamnesia #GrowWithLove 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Changed watering to every 5 days water until runoff they seem to enjoy it. Signs of Thrips I believe so sprayed them with neem type spray hoping that does the job. Continued with LST and ponytailing. Defoliated a very small amount. Hoping that both Banana’s go into flower next week.

Took 2 clones from my sunset sherbet this week towards the end of the week. There continues to be explosive growth with this plant. I plan on switching to flower in a month or so and we will find out how she really performs.

Hello, everyone. What happened with us this week - we moved our girl to another box because her height is now over 140 cm, and she started hitting the lights. I couldn't take good photos, so here's a video. The issue is that our girl was under the net in the box, and when the net was removed, she started collapsing under the weight of the buds. I ordered supports of 150 cm in height, and when I make our girl presentable, I'll take a lot of photos. We trimmed the leaves and small branches a bit.Take notice, it's the third week of flowering, and our girl is already covered in sugar. I want to wish everyone a good harvest and easy cultivation. Thanks to everyone who watches and reads, and especially those who leave comments, ask questions, and hit the like button. Also, a huge thanks to Zamnesia and Plagron.

The Plant is getting very bushy and I am thinking of dedefoliating the plant but I am unsure because of it being an Autoflower in the early stages.

So, starting the 6th week of flower with the phantom OG. BIg Bud has been stopped and has passed over the baton to Bloombastic for the last two weeks(ish) before flush. The POG. Are looking nice hopefully the next 3 or 4 weeks will get them looking a bit better than that.😍😍😍 The smell is awesome very fresh and clean, one leaning towards a minty aroma.
