Hello Growmies, Red Banana Pudding by Anesia Seeds - Weekly Update Entering the third week of observing the growth of our Red Banana Pudding plants, we're thrilled to share their progress and the careful adjustments made to optimize their growing environment. Current Growth Stage: Seedling stage, initiated on 21.01.23 Overall Plant Appearance: The Red Banana Pudding plants continue to thrive, boasting a vibrant and uniform lush green appearance. Their overall health and vitality are evident, maintaining a robust and strong stature. Growth and Stretch: Over the past week, our Red Banana Pudding plants have exhibited impressive growth, now reaching between 10 and 12 cm in height. This steady progress reflects their positive response to their current environment. Nutrient Management: While we had initially planned to introduce a mild nutrient solution this week, we've decided to postpone it until the following week. This cautious approach aligns with our commitment to ensuring optimal conditions for the plants before initiating nutrient supplementation. Watering Schedule: The plants were watered with RO water enriched with Orca and Rhizotonic, using a spray bottle. This gentle watering approach ensures they receive the necessary moisture without over-saturation. Light Settings: The light intensity has been adjusted to approximately 25-30%, providing an estimated 180 PPFD. This careful adjustment aligns with the increasing growth demands during this phase. Reflection and Planning: Reflecting on the past week, the robust growth of the Red Banana Pudding plants is a testament to their resilience and the effectiveness of our adjusted care routine. Looking ahead, we plan to introduce nutrients with Plagron Algae Grow next week, considering the pre-fertilized soil. Our focus remains on continuous monitoring, ensuring a nurturing environment for their development. We're eagerly anticipating the upcoming stages of growth in the coming weeks. Stay tuned for further updates on the Red Banana Pudding journey. Stay Lifted, Salokin

Will definitely grow again. Harvested some earlier than others, really tried to get an idea of how much of a difference what point of the harvest window you harvest makes to the effect. Very high quality genetics - big thanks to Barney's Farm! 👌

wow wow !!!! 404 gr ! from the suitcase!!!!!!!258 gr of wet dried buds!!!!!!! I am impressed with the result, and I don't really believe that I will ever be able to improve it :) It was a truly amazing journey with FastBuds Gorilla cookies auto, my house is filled with a wonderful sweet smell, the buds look really full and very very shiny :) I also collected a lot of sugar leaves from which I will make bubble hash:) the girl coped with high temperatures and high humidity throughout her growth, which is why I was afraid of rot, but everything went well!!!! She is amazing. smoke review and dry weight will be up very soon, good luck to everyone :)!!!

In week 10 I have some plants, which have grown taller than the rest (canopy is appr. 80 cm high now). In order to not have to raise my lamp, I rather correct their height by 'supercropping' them. Supercropping is a technique developed by SOMA from SOMA_seeds and works VERY WELL. Instead of topping your plants (=cutting off the main stem) it is better to take the main stem between your fingers (appr. 15-20 cm form the top) and brake the fibers inside and then bend it downwords. This way the stem will stay intact and heal itself and you dont loose the main buds growing on it later. In the video above I show and explain how I supercrop a plant. The plants are now getting more and more into flowering and therefore I switch the dimmer on my SANlight EVO4-120 plants to 100% now (see in video above). The BIO NOVA nutrients are increased as well a little bit, so the plants can build big buds.

June 16, 2024 Day 57 This week nothing changes with the nutrient schedule. I cleaned out the reservoirs and gave fresh nutes. I also made sure to double check the height of all the plants and we have a final height for each of them. Sour Diesel A is looking pretty good. Her final height is 23". Her bud production is looking pretty good as well. Trichomes are coming through quite nicely. Sour Diesel B is looking really good with her frosty fat nugs. Her final height is 21". I haven't touched her so I don't know how sticky she is nothing. But I see good things coming to this lady. Huge buds and lots of frost. Sour Diesel C is frosty, covered in nugs and has a final height of 30.5" tall. She looks fantastic and I wonder what her final yield will be. Her bud production is coming along nicely with buds starting to swell. Sour Diesel D is shaping out to be my lowest yielder. She has very little bud on her and what she does have is a bit slow to develop. I have a feeling this will be my extraction plant. Edibles and concentrate. The lighting is looking great at 45 mol/m²/d. Nothing to change. The plants are very happy. The environment is almost back to normal. The humidity is below 60% for the most part. Yesterday it was all the way down to 52%. Today just under 60% for the morning anyway. The Central Air should be kicking on in an hour or two. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.6° RH: 55.3% VPD: 1.27 kPa June 17, 2024 Nothing going on today. No watering, no training, no pics. Just a smooth day in the tent. Sour Diesel A looks good. Lots more frost. Buds are swelling. Everything looks great. Sour Diesel B had a couple leaves popped off, ones that were overlapping Sour Diesel C. Her buds are huge and I'm already starting to see orange pistils. She smells awesome too. Definitely Sour Diesel smell. Sour and gas. And a bit of sweetness as well. Very nice aroma. Sour Diesel C is looking fantastic. Her buds are also swelling and her trichome production is amazing. So frosty and smelly. As long as the buds continue to swell at this rate, this lady will be a pretty good yielder. Sour Diesel D is small as ever. Her buds are swelling quite nicely. They are bigger than A and C for now, but not as frosty. I'm honestly not sure if I did something wrong or if this is how she grew naturally. I didn't screw up the nutrients, nor did I add any stress except for the small defoliation. But that was right when she stopped stretching. I guess I'll find out at the end of the run. I also pulled a couple outer leaves off to keep them from overlapping other plants. Lighting is of course the same as yesterday, and won't be changing until the last 2 weeks of flower. I might drop the intensity down a bit for the last leg of the run. I'm going to research this though. As these are autoflowers they're fine with constant light, but at the end are they looking for less light? I think so. Naturally in the world, the end of a growing season is when it starts to drop on temp and light. So it would make sense to drop the light intensity the last week to help induce maturity and more trichomes. That's what it's supposed to do. I'm not sure if that's the case with autos. Will research and report back. The environment was great yesterday. Today it's a bit humid in my room but it's also kinda humid outside and 83°. It's supposed to climb up to 88° today, so I'm hoping the central AC will kick on early. The room temp is well controlled around 70°. Once the AC kicks on the humidity should drop down to around 52%. Not ideal, but actually within range. If I can somehow get it below 50% I'll be happy. 52% is merely satisfactory but not perfect. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.7° RH: 56.1% VPD: 1.30 kPa June 18, 2024 It's Picture Day! Did some stuff today. No watering or anything like that. Sour Diesel A is doing quite well. Her buds are swelling more and more. She's even frostier. I cannot wait to see how frosty she gets by the end. I also checked her roots. I figured out why the container is light. The roots are taking in all the water they can directly before it gets to the container. I'll have to top feed in a day or 2 if she gets lighter. However, she hasn't lost anymore weight in days, but I really need her to moisten the soil in the container. Sour Diesel B is now producing orange pistils. And kinda rapidly. I knew she would be done first, maybe a couple weeks left for her. I think next week, if she is as far along as I think she will be, I'll switch out Big Bud for Overdrive for the rest of the grow. But we shall see. Sour Diesel C is looking really good. Her buds are swelling more and she's even more frosty. As we all know, this one is about a week behind the others, so I expect more swelling and some fat buds. Sour Diesel D needed some leaves trimmed today. They were super overcrowded in one particular spot. So I took 3 of those and then a couple outer leaves that grew out since my last defoliation. Her main cola is getting fat. Just not fat enough. I have a feeling I'm getting no more than 2 oz. I'm guessing just over an oz. We shall see. She's definitely not big enough and doesn't have enough bud to produce a good yield. Oh well. The rest are pretty promising, so I'm not too worried. I added to the lighting today. I have supplemental lighting from AC Infinity. So I installed them today just below the top of the canopy. It should help with the lowers and get more fat buds throughout all 4 plants. I'll keep it at level 7 for today and see how things look tomorrow. The only concern I have is too much light from the main light due to the extra light from the supplemental bars. However, it should do quite well. So we are in a humid heat wave for the rest of the week. The Central Air should be kicking on anytime and will definitely drop the humidity down to about 50%. The temp should stay around 75° to 76°. Currently the humidity is really high at 66%. I'll be keeping the tent door open every hour or so until the A/C turns on. The temp is kind of high as well at 79°. I think I need to try to get the bedroom temp down to 76°. Wish me luck. It's already 82° and climbing. Afternoon update: Damn it's hot. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.7° RH: 55.8% VPD: 1.34 kPa June 19, 2024 Not much going on today. I may need to water, but that's a maybe. Other than that, just the one pic. Sour Diesel A looks great. Surprisingly, she is nearly empty where the other 3 have more water in them. Her bottom is also more moist than normal. She's in the way back and I didn't bother taking the plants out today. I'll take her out tomorrow and inspect her for any issues. Although, I'm pretty sure I'll be refilling her reservoir this evening and might as well refill the rest. Sour Diesel B is getting more orange pistils. I will have to research when I should be adding Overdrive now that I don't think she has more than 3 weeks left. 2 of flower and 1 of flush. Maybe just a week more in flower. I'm not sure. Researching. She's also getting the natural foxtails I read about. Apparently Sour Diesel, in general, foxtails. We shall see how it comes out. There should be no foxtails based on the environment unless the humidity can cause it. I'll have to research that as well. Sour Diesel C actually took the least amount of water for this watering. She's still about half full where the rest are near empty to about a quarter full. I find it interesting that she isn't drinking like a fish. She's in the second half of flower and should be super thirsty. I'll check the moisture content of the soil tomorrow when I refill the reservoir. Sour Diesel D is getting a nice fat main cola. She is the second most empty with less than a quarter gallon left. It's funny. I'm starting to think it's not the plants, but the dehumidifier on that side. I think it's evaporating the water faster than the plants can drink it. I might have to either move it or take it out all together. We shall see. The lights seems to be doing quite well. I don't see any stress from the supplemental light bars. If I start seeing it, I'll drop the power down to 50%, but I doubt it. They are attached to the poles vertically. I would have much rather had them horizontal, but I took my support bars out. I can't reinstall them or I won't be able to take the plants out. So that's out the window. So vertical it is. I may however install the inside bars if I can and then mount the front one to the tent door with a magnet bar. I might try that tomorrow when the plants are out of the tent. The environment is killing me. When the Central Air is off, the humidity spikes like 12%. Now the humidity is ridiculously high yet again at 67%. I really hate not having a wall or window AC. That would solve all of my problems. So I'm screwed until the AC kicks on. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.1° RH: 59.2% VPD: 1.22 kPa June 20, 2024 It's picture day! We have some happy ladies and there isn't anything to really do today. Sour Diesel A is getting fatter buds. They are kind of small, but it's still only week 4 of flower. She's still a little light. I might top feed a quarter gallon. Maybe with Recharge in it. I'll have to decide what to do. She's definitely not struggling, but she does have upward clawing edges. I'll have to research what that means. She is still the frostiest of the bunch. Sour Diesel B is getting even fatter. Frost is starting to come through pretty quickly now. I can't wait for this one to finish up. Sour Diesel C took quite well to the small bit of top watering I did yesterday. Her buds are still small, but that is to be expected with this one. I can tell they will swell up pretty good and there will be a nice bunch of colas. Sour Diesel D looks great. Her leaves are a lush green still, her buds are getting fat and stacking like mad. The buds are so close together, the plant looks like it has a tiny football on its top. I wonder what she will look like all trimmed up. Probably very small. The lighting seems to be fine now. The praying has lessened, so I know the lighting was an issue. Now that it's fixed, it should be business as usual. The environment is absolutely wrong now. The humidity is in the 70s today. And the temp is in the 80s. Just have to wait for the house AC to kick on. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.7° RH: 58.2% VPD: 1.23 kPa June 21, 2024 Nothing going on today. No watering, no light changes and I didn't even pull them out. I can see everything that I need to see. Sour Diesel A is getting orange pistils now and seems to be swelling more. Her buds are a little small, but I expect them to swell up over the next 2 to 3 weeks. Sour Diesel B should be done in a couple weeks. She has orange pistils everywhere. I was thinking she would go the same time as everyone else, but it looks like she will be done a week before the rest. Sour Diesel C is looking great as ever. She is a week behind and has all white pistils. Her buds are also a bit small, but I expect them to fill out over the next 4 weeks. Maybe 3. Sour Diesel D needed a few leaves cut from the main cola. The foliage is just way too thick there. I'm afraid the buds won't swell because there's no space at all. Even cutting the leaves off did next to nothing. The lighting didn't change at all. That's it. No changes. The environment is doing the same thing as the last 3 days. High humidity in the morning and lower humidity in the afternoon. Today the temp is a bit wonky sitting kinda high at 78°. Too high for happy trichomes. I'm working on dropping the temp back down to 75°. 74° would be ideal, but this strain also likes it really warm. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.4° RH: 59.1% VPD: 1.20 kPa June 22, 2024 Last day of week 4 and we got some pictures! And a video. Sour Diesel A is doing quite well. She has some pretty nice stacks going on. But the most trichomes production. I also popped a few leaves off. They were getting crushed. Only a few though. Sour Diesel B may be ready for Overdrive. I'll check tomorrow, but I don't think she'll be growing much more. Her pistils are about 50% orange, but still stark white on the bottoms. So I might wait a week before starting Overdrive. Big Bud is supposed to go to week 6, but this is a 45 day flowering cycle. A total of 6.5 weeks. Based on that info, I think next week will be a good start for Overdrive and then leave it for week 6 and then flush for week 7. And then harvest. I also took 2 leaves off. They were also being crushed. Sour Diesel C is coming along nicely. She has super long stacks covered in frosty bud. Not a single orange pistil. I'd say she has another 3 weeks before flush. Yet another plant that I took some leaves from. Just a few though. Sticking out and overlapping other plants. Sour Diesel D has this hot mess of a main cola. It's ridiculously large, but it's just a whole bunch of super tight nodes. I'm not sure what it's going to do, but trimming it will be a super pain in the bottom parts. No leaf removal today, but I did take 3 yesterday. As for lighting, I think I should have left the support bars in the tent. I'm not really liking the vertical supplemental lighting. I'd much rather them be horizontal along each wall. I feel like that would be the best way for adding the lower light. I may add the bard tomorrow, but just the back and sides. I still need to be able to pull the plants out for watering and to check for any issues. Not that I think there will be any issues, but you never know. The environment is the same as yesterday and the day before. High humidity in the morning and lower humidity in the afternoon. The temp is bouncing around a bit. Up to 80° this morning and now down to 78°. Too high. I need to try to drop the heat down more. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.7° RH: 59.3% VPD: 1.21 kPa

@FAST_BUDS, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-10-01. New week and the girls have stopt growing in hight. Girl Nr 1 is 61 cm and Nr 2 is 39 cm. They are frosting and budding up. New pics and video added. The girls start to smell sweet, blueberry/rasberry and nettles. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-10-06. Added some closeup pics.

🌱 **Week 8 of my Orange Bud Car - An incredible trip! **🌈 We have reached the **eighth week** of growth of my beloved Orange Bud Auto and, let me tell you, the route was nothing short of extraordinary! 🚀 ### 🌞 **Wedding light with PHLIZON FD8000! ** 💡 In this crucial phase, the **1000W** PHLIZON FD8000** lamp proved to be my best ally. 🌟 Thanks to its power and full-spectrum lighting, I noticed a significant increase in the rate of photosynthesis. My plants have developed wider and healthier leaves, with an intense green that makes them shine like precious gems! 💚 ### ⚡ **Heat Management: The key to success! **🔥 One thing I learned is how important heat management is. Thanks to the good balance of the temperature that the PHLIZON manages to maintain, I had no problems with overheating. I set the lamp at a distance of **60 cm** from the plants and used a strategic fan to maintain perfect air circulation. My friends wouldn't believe me, but I almost heard the plants applaud for the freshness! ### 🌿 **Nutrition: the secret of health! ** 🥇 Let's move on to the **nutrition** chapter! The **Advanced Nutrients** line has really transformed my cultivation routine. In particular, the **Cal-Mag** played a crucial role in addressing any nutrient deficiencies. I have administered Cal-Mag during the last few weeks, noticing a noticeable improvement in the appearance and robustness of the leaves. 🌳 They look sleek and vibrant, and my shoots look more vigorous than ever! 💪 ### 🔄 **Set up upgrade: a choice that paid off! ** ⚙️ Speaking of changes, my recent set up upgrade had a significant impact. I replaced the old fans with quieter and more efficient models, ensuring the right air flow without disturbing my evening relaxation in the grow room. And if you're wondering if the cost is worth the candle: absolutely yes! ✨ ### ❓ **Request for advice: control units for temperature control! ** 🛠️ At this point, I turn to you, illustrious growers! I really need some suggestions on **temperature control control controls**. I'm considering different models to handle fans, extractors and heaters, but I want something that works well and, of course, that is reasonable in price. What experiences have you had? Share your pearls of wisdom! 💬 ### 🌼 **Looking to the future! ** 🔍 I am extremely curious to see how the growth of my plants will continue in the coming weeks. The buds are beginning to form, promising a harvest that promises to be spectacular. The energy is palpable and I can't wait to document every step of this trip. 🌿✨
