I'm going to have to have a think about my next grow, either I stick with this tent and hit the plants hard with light when I flip to flower to keep them small, or try and cram a slightly bigger tent in the space allocated for it. This tent is 61Γ—76Γ—150cm with the option to extend it to 173cm. Mine is configured to the 150cm height, but because its extendable the top 30cm is inaccessible at the best of times let alone when the plants reach a decent height. Extending this tent will be pointless because that's another 23cm of inaccessible space. Besides I only have a max head room for 160cm where the tent is.

Excited to see seed germ, then they have taken to soil. Its like being a parent all over again I just want them to flourish lol. Need to get my vent sorted and my humidity down gradually but going well. Few issues with a stuck seed shell. Stumpy will and is getting some extra help. DIY C02 is working a treat too πŸ‘πŸ‘

Hey From now on I will only give water for the remaining 2 weeks, in the last week of the flush I will water with ice water to provoke a purple color. We're coming to an end, that's great :) I’m exited for the relentless seeds for the next run πŸ™ŒπŸ» Cannaapeace

Week 3 Flower (Bloom Week 3) – Daily Tasks Evening (Lights On) Check environment (temp 24–27Β°C, RH 55–60%). Inspect leaves and buds for pests, mold, or deficiencies. Water/feed (depending on medium): balanced bloom nutrients with slightly higher P and K. Ensure good airflow (oscillating fans). Adjust plant training (light defoliation if leaves block bud sites). Check for early signs of stretch finishing. Evening (Before Lights Off) Ensure irrigation is not too late in the cycle to avoid wet medium during dark period. πŸ‘‰ In Week 3 bloom, the plants are finishing their stretch and starting to put more energy into forming bud sites. Main job is: Setting Scrog net 2layers ,Control environment (VPD, airflow) ,Support the plant with bloom nutrients.

happy new year, everyone! plants are thriving, stretch is happening and the experimental is showing buds already (it's been switched one week earlier) 😊 --- another major defoliation done – Barney claimed that lateral branching is heavy and it's indeed πŸ˜‚

Day 14 Flower β€” girls looking sweet, stretch winding down 🌿 Day 14 of flower and the girls are loving it β€” canopy’s filling out and I think the big stretch is starting to settle. I topped up the pots with a bit more soil and did a light clean under the canopy β€” one more proper lollipop/clean and then I’m leaving them to do their thing. Did a few gentle supercrops where needed to tame the highest tops. Big worry right now β€” night humidity. My box lives in a cold, damp garage so I have to switch the inline exhaust off at night or temps drop too low. I’m running a 150W cabinet heater to hold nights around 17–20 Β°C, and two circulation fans (one under the net, one above) run 24/7, plus a small dehumidifier that’s not keeping up. With the exhaust off RH jumps to ~80–85% overnight which is a real risk for bud rot as the colas fatten. Feeding & training: pots got a top-up of soil, still on the same organic program. I cleaned the lower growth today and tucked what I could β€” after one last clean I’ll stop heavy training and let them bulk. If anyone’s run into the same cold-garage / high-night-RH issue β€” what worked for you? I’m thinking: better dehu (bigger mini unit) or routing a drain from my small unit outside the box, short timed bursts on the inline fan overnight to avoid full-on chilling, or a tiny heater + targeted air mixing to keep box temp up without frying the plants. Appreciate any real-world tips. Pics attached in my diary. #GrowDiaries #SCROG #Day14Flower #IndoorGrow #HelpNeeded

Finally got amber trichomes on day 18 of flush!!! Starved for the girl for 24 hours simply on light. Day 114 - Harvest!. Summary of Grow: Normal with one exception. Trichomes refusing to amber til the last minute. Not something I've encountered before. A good lesson in patience. 4oz!! I'm extremely happy! I love this to start the evening. chatty and chilled without the couchlock,

Hi allπŸ§‘β€πŸŒΎ Welcome to my final πŸŒπŸ’œπŸ‘Š week update. First of all. I would like to thank you all for such an amazing support on this bananas journey. I am amazed of the amount of love received from community here. Thank you Grow Diaries and Fastbuds for opportuniy to share and grow this amazing genetics. Love you allβ€οΈπŸ’œπŸ’š Was looking for strong indica dominant strain and after reading and hearing so much about this one. Just couldn't resist to not give a go. Was a bit worried before planting seeds that my final yield outcome may not be satisactionary as only have 0.26msq and Fastbuds advertising this strain as 450-550g msq but thankfuly my result was way above this scale. My 2 beautiful ladies Athena - right corner lady. She was slighlthly more dominant over entire grow cycle. She got more space on scrog earlier and that's why she developed the most. Xena - left corner lady, I belive that she could outgrew her sister if she just have more space and another week of time. Did not expect her to turn so well on the end. Both girls were put in darkness for 48h before chop. Wet trimmed and hang for a week. Daily jars burbing for 10 days and every 2-4 days now. Weights Wet trimmed Athena 870g Xena 632g Total 1502g Dry trimmed Athena 172g Xena 147g Total dry 319g Bubble hash 6g (37g of trims) I am very happy with this result. In my opinion Banana Purple Punch Auto its a masterpiece. Thank you so much for all the support, likes, follows and comments πŸ™β€οΈπŸ’œβ€οΈ Peace and love brother and sisters βœŒοΈπŸ’šπŸ§‘β€πŸŒΎ Smoke review coming in shortly Links https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/banana-purple-punch-auto https://plagron.com https://www.biobizz.com/ https://fishheadfarms.com/

15.06.25. Day 30. Plants are looking healthy. Lots of growth in past week. She is showing preflower so I switched to flowering nutrients. First reservoir change out since I placed them into buckets. One plant topped herself because of rapid growth, I did not pull back training wire on main node and so the branch snapped where it was tied down. She is entering stretch now so I took of training wire on all plants. 18.06.25. Day 33! Defoliation, lilipop.

Hey guys . My cutting heating broke 3-4 weeks ago, which was fixed immediately and everything went wonderfully. Now, 3 days ago, the central heating broke down in the entire room, so that at night I only have temperatures of around 13 degrees :-( . One or the other lady is slowly starting to see a phosphorus blockage, as this can no longer be absorbed at temperatures below 15 degrees, like many other nutrients :-( . A friend looked at the heating yesterday and came to the conclusion that a real company had to do it, which is by no means possible for a stranger to enter my room. I quickly ordered heating mats for all the boxes so that the ladies could at least get warm feet. That's all I have this winter full can do . Let's hope everything will be fine πŸ™πŸ». As soon as the heating mats are attached in the coming days, I will post them in the pictures. Now for the update. Despite the severe cold, the ladies are still doing well and have made good progres . The ladies only had to be watered once this week, each time with 1 l, because it absorbs the water very slowly because of the cold and I don't want to overwater it. I took every single plant in the pot to take a close look at their roots. These are snow white and look very healthy πŸ™πŸ». It was also the last time neem oil sprayed so that the last trips are finally gone. Otherwise everything was checked and a lot of planning was done, like I do with the heating mats. Since a friend had the same problem in one winter and the heating mats got 10 degrees plus on the pots, I am very confident that it will at least bring something for the last cold month πŸ˜ƒ πŸ™πŸ». I'll start flowering tomorrow by switching to 12 / 12 h because the ladies mustn't get too high because the small flowering tent is only 160 cm high :-) until then have fun and stay healthy πŸ™πŸ» πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ You can buy this strain at : Clearwater Seeds Water πŸ’§ πŸ’§πŸ’§ Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

So she started herming. Guess I'll have to change her name to Big Barry instead πŸ˜… Wish I could grow a testicle everytime I got frustrated, geez. Kids these days. Anyways, I've been really good about any light leaks, and the internal temps have been consistent, so I'm blaming the 'bagseed' genetics. As soon as I saw the pollen, I started misting the plant with regular RO water, and then went in and removed as many pollen sacks as I could find. But I seriously doubt that I was able to find them all, since they're so deeply hidden within the budsites, and will likely be finding more pollen over the coming weeks -___- My first grow, so it's disappointing but Im still proud of her. Might just spread any seeds I find in the buds, out in the yard and see how they do. I certainly won't be TLC-ing mystery genetics again, aside from the clones I took off her-- which are my first clones as well (with 100% success rate 😎). Ive never had a greenthumb so please ignore my horn-tooting lol
