Look good!!! She's grown quite a bit this week. Now I'm watering it one day yes and one day no. She's appreciate that. This variety won't say no to food ( at least for the moment that's the feeling I get.) See you in the next week!

First off, I hope all who visit this journal watch the timelapse. I'm very happy with how it turned out. The GSC is in the foreground. Comparing the beginning to the end shows just how dramatically my plant has grown in the past week. This plant now has a photo-period neighbor! I have changed the light schedule back to 18-6 to accommodate. Her chronicles will be in a separate journal. Towards the end of week two, I noticed the leaves were forming brown spots that I took as a sign of calcium deficiency. To treat this, I used a gallon of (hard) tap water, adding calcium to the reservoir. Luckily this seems to have done the trick! The spots have been absent on all subsequent leaf growth. Sometime in the middle of this week, I had to re balance the pH from ~7 to ~6. Perhaps this pH fluctuation came from the tap water transfusion. In an effort to raise the RH in the tent, I've repetitively spilled a small amount of water on the floor of the tent. Doing this keeps the RH around 45-50%. I've made some other small changes to my grow setup as shown in the pictures. Prior to this week, I'd thought my plant was hopelessly behind developmentally compared to other user's because I'd compare their week two plants to mine. Luckily, this week has seen some growth! It's crazy how fast they shoot off after their first three-fingered leaves form. The first "real" set of leaves to grow in (not three-fingered yet), seemed to take forever to grow into their full size while not much else (besides the roots) seemed to grow. This week's three-pointed leaves have practically fully formed already. Alongside them, are the beginnings of yet more leaves! I'm not certain what I will do this next week. I may start LSTing this plant, though I'm not sure when exactly I should do this. My original plan for my plants was to implement a screen of green using a trellis. I have sense realized this may not be the best approach while using a DWC, because water changed would be made much more difficult. Have any of you DWC growers experiment with this? Is it worthwhile? I will likely not replace the water for another week, though that's not set in stone. I appreciate any advise regarding the training techniques I mentioned, water switch outs and anything else that may be relevant to this grow. I will more than likely ask a few designated questions. To those who take the time to answer, thank you!

The time has finally arrived!!!!! Tomorrow morning she will be coming down after flowering for 58 days. After drying/trimming I’ll cure for 2-3 weeks. Won’t weigh until after I dry but any guesses as to how much it is?

Starting to bud up ok. Tied the branches to open up the plant & removed quite a few leaves that were being eaten up . I really like the structure of the plant, not to bushy. Ran some Clearex to flush the salts from the Pro-Mix. The terpenes have a nice pepper/spices profile. Started Big bud this week.

Most of them made it only 1 six shooter definitely didnt make it and a cream cookies is a lil stuck. I threw a mexican airlines in the old six shooter cup but just letting it germinate in the soil I havnt done that in a while. They are going to get another feed tmm. The medium is a 50/50 coco/soil mix since I'm using the green buzz and its organic I figured a little soil might be beneficial. Day 7 from germination they should be ready to go into their final pots in the next few days.

Mar 24: Watering till runoff now... runoff ppm was 2500+... Will be using very mild nutes to flush over 1 - 3 feeds... or until I am near my input. Mar 26: Continuing to use 650ppm feed with bloom focus, 2L per plant gives 15% runoff... Runoff ppm is still very high... I wanted to check pH of runoff but the color is so vibrant i cant use the pH drops to view color, need to get a pH probe. Plants are thriving, no issues at all. the extra fan fixed the post-water droop. One plant is bushy and has the most bud sites, One is the smallest but has the most uniform structure, this one has the biggest buds and thickest stalk, One is about in the middle of the 2. Mar 29: one of these girls gets droopy early when its time for water, thought the canopy was too high so i tied down some more, no cigar... gonna try increasing calmag, if that doesent work im going to reposition in the grow box to a side instead of middle, may not need the upper end ppfd...

Hello Diary. The fifth week of flowering is over, and Fat Banana is slowly completing its cycle. Ten more days and we have a harvest. 😍 The “farm” is a real jungle, her roommates Haze Berry Auto have grown quite big but I think Fat Banana Auto will be leaving the “Farm” sooner. 😀 All the larger leaves on the plant have turned yellow and got pretty big brown spots, is it due to some problems caused by my treatment or is Fat Fat Banana just coming to the end of its cycle? I'm not entirely sure. (lack of experience) 😏 The flowers themselves look healthy, and smell like the finest sweets. The sweet-fruity scent overwhelms me as soon as I open the box. 😋 The flowers are compact and very sticky, as far as I can see now, it will be a good harvest. 💪 As we approached the end, I stopped adding nutrients and watered only with water to which I only regulated p.H. at 6.4. In my case, it's a reduction because my house water is around 7.5 - 8.1 p.H, so I use Plagron's Lemon Kick for the descent, which does a good job. 👌 Here's what the week looked like. 15/11/2020 - Day 52. Watering. Only water, without any nutrients with regulated p.H. at 6.4 Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25.5 degrees and 47% humidity. 18/11/2020 - Day 55. Watering. Procedure as three days earlier. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25.2 degrees and 48% humidity. 19/11/2020 - Day 56. Photographing plants. As always, on the last day of the current week I am taking photos of “my little farm”. 😉 That’s it for this week, a little more and I will enjoy the fruits of the effort these past weeks. Thanks to everyone who takes a look at the diary and I hope that this information will be useful to someone. See you soon. 🙌

day 67 - This week the buds keep getting fat and the most notable change is the color. The buds are madurating and getting more intense red and nice dose of resine.

Primeira semana de Flor BEM agitada. Plantas Crescendo MUITO rapidamente devido a maior quantidade de luz, maior volume dos vasos e ao stretch natural do período. Tive que instalar a grade para poder espalhar os ramos da planta e aproveitar toda a luz disponível. Utilizei arame recozido para fazer uma grade rígida que depois pode ser usada como base para treinamentos futuros.

So as you can see I now have four flowering which I guess were the autos and I have one gelato that is still vegging and is doing damn good. There are two that have lighter color leaves, I’m trying to focus on on these and see if I can get better production. As for the tall GG in the back, leaves are waxy and have resin production starting. A lot better, overall I’m learning more and more every week! Hope everyone is enjoying my grow and stick around, ask questions. Happy New Year!

10/31 Trimmed some leaves that had been scorched from water laying on them under the HPS. They were bone dry so I watered about 100ozs each which is about double what I have been giving them. I'll start feeding next watering. 11/3 Watered and fed with Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom at a quarter strength. 11/4 Received a pH meter and checked my well water. I'm at 7.5 so I ordered pH down.

* ***************** Week 2 of Growth From Seed, April 18 to 25, 2020 - Days 8 to 14 from germination ********************** * Getting rolling on week 2. The two girls are doing well. GSC2 was named as such due to being slower than the other pheno but she is now advancing faster with respect to her third set of leaves😃😃👍 This are the fist couple of weeks of veg.......not overly exciting. Each girl only has 4 to 6 leaves.......what the hell are you supposed to do😂😂😂😂😂😂 Focusing on environmental changes this week......not too radical though, they are still autos with only three weeks of veg time, roughly👍 Switch CalMag this week and going with GH as it has a 1% value for Nitrogen. Will be increasing the CalMag now as well. Will be getting ppm in the 500 range more this week. May start to introduce AN Sensyzime this week. Keep moving the lights up and down trying to dial in between 18” and 30” and see how they react. Seems to be about 24” right now they are happy. Playing with the VPD and finding that they are not as happy with the VPD up around 1.0 and rather happier around 1.4??? (lower humidity keeping same heat) Happier meaning tips up more and in general looking like they are getting bigger. Played with humidity this weekend as well between 52% and 75%. Again, they seem happiest around 58%..........going to try that for a couple of days and see how they grow for the next few days. I feel they are all a little slower at the high humidity when coming closer to 1.0 for VPD. Not backing away from this but rather trying to read the girls as I am used to🤪🤪🤪🤪 *****Daily Detail: Apr 18, Day 9 - VPD - 1.1 - 2L feed with Vitathrive and Velokelp and Dual Fuel @ 0.75ml/L, CaMg+ @ 0.75ml/L = 575ppm, 5.8pH. - playing with humidity up and down today. - ready for a plain water feed and a little larger quantity to soak all the medium. - not sure if tomorrow though.......might be a little wet yet in the medium. - GSC is doing well but GSC2 is the one that has really picked up the last two days😃😃😃 Apr 19, Day 9 - VPD - 1.3 - 2L watering today with CaMg and Sensyzime @ 1ml/L each. 240ppm with 5.9pH. - Had more runoff, that was the goal. Didn't bother to measure this though. - Just trying to bring the medium pH in line and reduce some of the ppm. - Things just aren't progressing as I think they should. Apr 20, Day 10 - VPD 1.5 - dry out day - lower humidity in tent to 55% Apr 21, Day 11 - VPD 1.5 - dry out day, again. Humidity kept low. - Added home made CO2 to the tent today. - GSC 3.0" tall, and GSC2 2.5" tall only. - GSC has wider leaves and nice star shape from above. - GSC2 has more elongated leaves and is covering more of the pot. Apr 22, Day 12 - VPD 1.4 - Dry out day yet again but now raising the humidity back to 65%. - tips back up today. Apr 23, Day 13 - VPD 1.4 - 0.5L - P & V & Vitathrive @ 1ml/L, DF & CalMag@ 0.5ml/L = 410ppm and 5.9pH - primarily calmag and something for roots. - GSC is getting wider indica looking leaves. She is still slower than 2 but looks very pretty in structure. - GSC2 has some narrow blades. All of her leaves are really up today….she is very happy. Apr 24, Day 14 - VPD 1.4 - 0.5L - Voodoo and Piranha and VeloKelp @ 2ml/L = 180ppm pH'd to 5.6 - tough week.......they battled over watering as a result of some over feeding last week.

Finished really fast! Not expecting a very big harvest, they needed a longer veg time, pretty small at start of flowering, didn't use massive bloom this run either Going of the last run expecting good quality. Small buds.

It’s been a good week for this girl. I caught the Vid, and have been doing the very minimum to can get away with to keep her going. No training, but I did do a little bit of defoliation. Temp and RH was steady for the large part. I’ll be transplanting her to a 4 gallon pot next week, and again once I clear my tent of the other 3 autos I have going, I will transplant again to her 7 gallon final pot. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦👊😊
