Havent had time to update the grow, but things are going great! Im in week 13 of veg and ready for flower finally! The girls are all ready except for one runt but im.not worried as the others are all pretty big rn. Just got a hydro x system by trolmaster to serve as complete environmental controller for me and also remote control via internet while im.away at my day job. I added a second net as a scrog 12inches above base of plants and have increased my original 4x8 tent to a 5x9 by cutting off tent and expanding the net surace area. Im afraid to veg any longer as i know the stretch is alawys more than anticipated. Also, the roots are getting massive in the 13gal pots. Safe time to start flowering now. Im excited and looking forward to the changes to come :) Thanks for taking the time to read this and check out my journal. Any comments are welcome and appreciated! Til next time, Happy Growing!!!

Good growth this week. The inchworms are still munching away so I sprayed with some neem oil. Will be watering in some Big Bloom and molasses later. Really looking forward to this one flowering in a couple weeks. It had the prettiest purple flowers last year!

This girl was a high effort high reward type of girl for sure. She was struggling with nutrients which is why towards the end all of the leaves were just yellow and crispy. I didn't manage to find the right balance of nutrients for her BUT the yield and end product definitely did not suffer. This strain's smell alone is 100% worth growing!

Good morning everyone! First off I want to say a special thank you to grow Diaries for Choosing Tutorial "how yo build a scrog" for Second Place! Now for the update I discovered two males in my grow both of them are Blue Hawaiian. I decided to inspect the root development sence they were going to be destroyed anyway. I was really upset on the how they look. Normally I transplant at least 4 times before I reach my final pot. On this grow I experimented by transplanting from a solo cup to my final pot and also another by just placing the seed directly into the soil. You can see from the pictures that the roots did not develop much at all. I will not be using that method again. On another note for those of you that have experience using molasses in your feeding schedule for your plants can you chime in and tell me what you would use and how you would mix? As far as the girls Our concern they are stretching out very nicely! And looking very good. Hope everyone's day goes well cheers! G.I.JOSE

Due to the tiny growth of this plant I haven't been keeping up to date with its diary. Photos have been taken throughout the process and I do plan on updating it eventually. I'm hoping that the quality of smoke turns my opinion around on this strain as I have had to turn to humor to deal with the absence of growth... But shes a perfect mini Christmas tree and boy does she smell good!!

Started some LST early in the week for the slightly older plant, then later in the week with the other two. I was going to let them go Christmas tree style, but I can tell already they will out stretch the others. Ended up just bending the top and tying with pant ties. This should promote some busier plants. Still figuring out the Correct Cronk Dosage, it’s pretty strong stuff, just trying to find the balance. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦👊❤️

Plants had a bit of a ph issue with all the renovations on the veg set up the ph stick ran out of battery and couldn't keep the ph in check. now that is sorted though and we are running fine again. The plants are in the flowering room as the last set of plants have been harvested already. Veg room is almost built so the diaries will be up to date weekly and not this on and off posts, sorry about all that. The photos here are before and after training the plants after they had been topped a few weeks ago

Hi everyone 😁 Welcome back in another week update! Thank you all for this amazing support on this bananas journey💚💚💚 Uploading and updating each week content on daily bassis so please revisit this diary if week not over yet. So far all going great. Girls looking very healthy and happy. Due to my short trip had to leave my 🍌💜👊 girls unsupervised for 3 days. Was stunned when opened my cabinet on the Dec 5th. Athena stretched like crazy. Good 3 inches. She better slow down as not much roof space left for her. May tie some taller branches to netting if necessary. Introducing blooming nutes for the first time this week on December 6th at smaller dosage and on the second watering as listed. Week 8 Dec 4 - Dec 10 Dec 5 Leaves tucking Dec 6 Heavier selective defoliation on both girls. Athena fully lolipopped and Xena at 75%. Watered with 8 ltr beetwen both with perfect runoofs PH 6.4. Girls were very thirsty 🤤 Dec 7-8 Just enjoying how my girls developing. Frost has landed and they are start showing colours. All is looking great. Dec 9 Second watering for this week 7 ltr beetwen both. Runoffs PH 6.4 Even with so much difrence in size of my 🍌💜👊 girls it seems that they are drinking my juice almost equally. Dec 10 Applied selective defoliation and tied 3 tallest branches of Athena to netting to avoid any potential burns on these beautiful baby colas. It's the end of the week! Thank you all again for such a great support, all the likes, dm's, comments and follows 💚💜💚💜 Stay tuned for coming week update 😁✌️💚

Topped soil with layer of aquarium rock. Treated rather dry pot to 3:1 tap water:hydrogen peroxide mix, two quarts. sprayed 3:1 mix around/in plant, doused areas of activity in rock/soil with vinegar. Classic overwatering-led-to-fungus-gnats! pot placed on riser, towel sitting underneath to capture/monitor runoff. two days after 3:1 fed pot two quarts of water with added general hydroponics 1/2/3. kept tent dry with towel replacements, idea was to saturate soil with nutrient rich water after the peroxide flush. brutal. plant is not happy.

Monday’s Blue, it looks like she’s flowering but I am not sure but I will find out very soon with this coming week, the days are getting hotter and now an hour longer. I almost lost hope, the leaves were drying out, but with time knowledge is acquired and look at her now, she does show signs of going through trauma but now she healed ad growing like the rest.

I am absolutely in love with my Cosmos Girl from Royal Queen Seeds! She's growing beautifully and it's amazing to see her develop day by day. I was surprised to see that she's developing 3 branches per node, but it's clear that she's adapting well to her surroundings and growing strong. Her inter node space is great, which tells me that she's receiving the right amount of light and nutrients to grow properly. I'm a big believer in using quality organic nutrients, and that's why I trust no other brand in organics than Aptus Holland. Their products have never let me down, and I know that I can rely on them to provide my plant with the best possible nutrients for her growth and development. I was thrilled to see that Cosmos started her pre-flower stage on day 28. This is a crucial time in her development, as it marks the transition from vegetative growth to the flowering stage. I can't wait to see her produce flowers and eventually develop into beautiful buds! Overall, I'm so passionate about this plant and I'm putting all of my love and attention into her growth. It's an amazing experience to see her thrive under my care, and I'm excited to see what the future holds for my Cosmos plant! As she is entering the flower stage i did apply for the last time , may be lets see, NutriSpary, a must for me in all my gardens . NutriSpray from Aptus is a fantastic product that provides a range of benefits for plants during their growth and development. This product is designed to be used as a foliar spray, meaning it is applied directly to the leaves of the plant. One of the main benefits of NutriSpray is that it contains a range of essential micronutrients that are necessary for plant growth. These micronutrients include iron, manganese, zinc, and copper, which are all crucial for healthy plant development. By providing these nutrients directly to the leaves of the plant, NutriSpray helps to ensure that they are absorbed quickly and efficiently, which can lead to faster growth and better overall health. Another benefit of NutriSpray is that it can help to increase the plant's resistance to stress. This is because it contains plant extracts that are known to have anti-stress properties. By applying NutriSpray regularly, you can help to protect your plants from a range of environmental stresses, such as temperature changes, drought, and pests. NutriSpray is also easy to use and can be applied at any time during the plant's growth cycle. Simply mix the recommended amount of NutriSpray with water and spray it directly onto the leaves of the plant. This product is especially useful during periods of rapid growth, when plants may need an extra boost of nutrients to keep up with their development. Overall, NutriSpray from Aptus is a fantastic product that provides a range of benefits for plants. From providing essential micronutrients to increasing stress resistance, this product is an excellent choice for any grower who wants to ensure that their plants are healthy and strong.
