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

They're flowering, and fast. These beauties are a must to grow. They'll grow to 2 meters tall and punch even above that. Also theyve started flowering and some already have created big sticky buds even the small one! Awesome grow recommended.

Week 10 - not long now.. She looks good, just a little concerned with the fan leaves but from what I've read this is normal and nothing to worry about at this stage. Hope that is true. 🤔
I've kept the nutrients lower this week as I am worried about over feeding. The soil I mixed with alot of Manure from goats, ducks and chicken so I dont think I need to add anything else. First time growing... better to be safe than sorry.
I got to the bottom of last weeks droopy leaves - Underwatering!
I had been keeping her out of the rain and had forgot to feed water. Lesson learnt.
I noticed the roots get compact on top in a fabric pot if you dont slowly water in, the water runs off the pot and not through it. Fixed this by bottom feeding until the soil was fully wet - I guess bottom feeding is the way to go when this happens.
10-20% of Pistils are brownish now and most of the trichomes are cloudy with a few still clear and the odd one amber. Still trying to get to grips with the x45 loupe. I dont have steady hands 😆
The lower branches that were LST'd are getting really big now so for sure I will be pulling all the branches back next time.
Removed potential bud rot and will closely monitor. Hopefully she will be ok for 10 more days 🙏🤞

I'm slowly running into the problem that the RUNTZ is just getting too big. The buds could be developing a bit better. I was really unsure whether the seeds were just the feminized variety, but they are definitely automatics. It's really insane how well and massively the genetics grow. It's just crazy!

July 11: Finally this week getting some heat with 25-30 deg C daytime highs. Plants are thriving with a lot of vertical growth and flowers starting to build. Resin is developing nicely. Purple Punch is going to be big and heavy by the looks of it.

This was a week. The drama at the beginning was one of the fans falling down onto my gorilla cookies. It snapped a branch off really bad but the girl hung onto it by threads. I duct taped her up and somehow took. 😎😢
I defoliated and did a little lst on a couple of the girls. Nothing major. Also increased the light to 80% now. I think I'll stay there until late flower when I switch to 12/12.
I also added blocks to a couple of the girls to make the canopy level. That put the light at 15" as recommended by Medic Grow.
This Gorilla Cookie is a beast. Even took a beating from a falling fan but kept going. She'll do the best out of the group I bet.
Dimmed to 80%
Here are the lights details:
Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 150W LED
Model: MN150-022
Spectrum mode: V1
Efficacy: 2.8 umol/J
Thanks for stopping by!

We back with some buckets! Time to fire up the pumps and get this show on the road. Soaked this beautiful little gem of a bean in some water until it cracked then threw it into the bucket with 100% perlite. Started them on a low dose of maxigro on day 3. Doing these diy Dutch Bucket style as always. Going to be running 8 in house genetics strains on the system with constant 24 hour a day irrigation. Not much exciting going on yet, but with a little luck that may change pretty soon. A huge thanks again to @wildeweed for this beautiful bean.

Amazing progress across the board in the tent the last week. Development has been positive for The New and Black Dog, Bubba has swollen up bud wise, and it’s still another week away or so (flowering is supposed to be 50-55 and we’re at 50 today). Chemdawg smell is getting stronger but not too aggressive, and it’s fate king nicely on most colas. Even at the bottom of the plant the buds look nice. It’s an amazing strain, can’t wait to smoke it.

Aug 2: Tropicana Cookies FF is three weeks younger than my two biggest plants (Sunday Punch EV and Mimosa Shot) and two weeks younger than Lemon Cream Kush. This is a very strong plant and is progressing very well.
This wagon with LCK started force flowering a week later than the other wagon and will go another week longer.
TC is now the tallest of the four plants despite being the youngest.
Aug 5: now done force flowering after 2.5 weeks. Plants in this wagon are getting too big to easily get into garage. Continuing to use far red light as a bloom booster at dusk. Back to 15.5 h of daylight in the backyard now.
Aug 7: now 51 inches so she’s had a quick vertical growth spurt. Looking very happy with leaves ‘praying’ upwards nicely.

_____📅 Week 8 | 📅 Day 50 - 56 | 17.06 - 23.06 ____________________________________
🌼🌸🌺Pre-flower🌼🌸🌺
23.06.25 | Day 56🌞💧
🔸This week I wanted to stress my sweetys as little as possible, so only a few photos from the tent. They are standing perfectly straight and I didn't want to break or snap anything off. They are doing great.
🔸I tried out my additional light this week and connected it to my controller. As soon as the flowering starts I will switch it on. I'll have to see how much distance I use this time, the lamps were too close to the plants during the last grow “Runtz” and that didn't look nice.
🔸Next week I will start giving her Big Bud as soon as the first buds appear.
🔸Poison Envy: Would say the stretch is not over yet, very slight hairs on the nodes can be seen...it's definitely all ladies :D She is now over 35 Cm so in a week she will be 10 CM stretch, let's see when she is ready.

8/4:
I decided that instead of taking them outdoors to the "solar surface bugstorm," I'm just gonna grow them and a few autos that popped when I was testing my new cloners as a seed germinator indoors in the closet.
So...I went ahead and ordered a new carbon filter, set the timers and flipped them to 12/12. I'll continue to take the auto seedlings out for 24 hours of light for a while.
I'm really digging the TPS ONE...makes life easy for an old stoner like me. I no longer have to remember whether I fed the last time or just watered...with this stuff, it's the same feed with every watering.
8/8:
Preflowers on the more indica looking plants...all 4 of them..pretty sure they are the #10's, and preflowers on a couple of the other ones too.

I'm done with autoflower cultivar! That and trying to grow outdoor specimens indoors, no bueno. In this micro-grow area of mine will be from now on, limited to two plants and I will be much more selective of what plants to grow out!
I've had a few autos turn out but with this grow getting so out-of-control, autos being photos, etc. It would just be easier for me as an individual limit the type of growing I'm doing to just breeding; one male, one female but with this bagseed male...we will see what the offspring are like at a later time but for now I'm trying to force this male to flower.
Alot of growth from the purple haze auto, so much so it has crowded out both Lemon Haze autos and I can't even see one but can smell it!! Once I get to 12/12, growth should be completely focused on buds but for now I'm allowing all plants time to transition @14 hrs and EOD Emerson effect treatments.
More soon.
Also, something is off with my camera's contrast, everything in my room from my perspective is very green, light/lime yes but it appears yellow in my photos. I suppose I could go a bit higher in soluble N, an and Iron when I feed but as of today, Blood meal is making it's way to the top of my favorite amendments...quick!
I've gone a tad bit more rich with feedings on the N side for the Purple Haze auto as it is not auto and kind of let the Lemon Autos finish, hopefully my 2 in 1 lemon isn't soaking up all the N in its last couple weeks...smoke might be zingy/zesty! Anyways, I've basically let the two lemon autos go and have focused on Purple Haze.
Can't wait until flower!

Mar 15:
Looking good, keeping rh down has proven difficult with 3 in a 2x3x4ft box, blasting intake and exhaust with 2 fans inside.
Otherwise good, did a 1/4 feed to use up stores and salts.
Mar 16:
Looking good, dialed back in RH, Temp lowered a couple degrees, no oscillating fan so I adjust the position every day.
Want to start using MonsterBloom for some fat buds but don't wanna start too early.
Also need info if incorporating run-off feeds is necessary if i do occasional 1/4 dose feeds.
Slowly dialing back grow nutrients, and upping bloom.
New light has made 100X difference.
Mar 18th:
Will be increasing of volume per feed over the next week to 1 - 1.2L per plant, or until I get 10% run-off.
keeping concentration of feed around 800ppm,
No signs of deficiencies or toxicities yet, though colour of leaves may be a tad dark, no signs of slowed growth.
Increased PPFD to 750 - 940 at the top of the canopy.
Mar 21:
Going to start counting days not weeks, its been 36 days since they popped, so just over 5 weeks now, I was a bit ahead.
Explosive growth, still playing the "increase volume of feed until I get 10-15% runoff" game, at 1L now, will up to 1.25L for todays feed.
decreasing FloraGro by .5ml/gal every feed till I get to 1 - 1.5mL/gal.
increasing FloraBloom by .5mL/gal every feed till I get to 7 - 7.5mL/gal, or until I see P or K toxicity, whatever comes first.
That being said if I get runoff today and its 300 ppm over input, i will flush with a mild feed until I get proper output/input ppm ratio.
PLEASE, IF YOU ARE READING THIS, IF YOU SEE ME DOING SOMETHING WRONG, OR IF THERE IS A BETTER WAY, COMMENT OR DM ME 😭😂💪

Grow diary 11 stage 7
Day 61-70
She has had to fend for herself most of the last 9 days. When I got back I was hoping she would be in flower. 70 days in and not in flower so she has fucked up my schedule a bit. But on the plus side she going to have a bigger harvest from the extra veg time.
