This weeks focus is balancing ph of my homemade Texas Tea nutrient and creating the perfect โ€œTropicalโ€ environment for my babies to thrive in. Incorporated Advanced nutrients up/down to assist with ph also helped lower the PPM. They are loving the vegetation box I built!

This week the Bruce Banner autos really started to show what theyโ€™re made of. All three phenos are moving deeper into midโ€“late flower now, and the differences between them are getting more obvious. Bruce Banner #2 Still the most advanced girl in the tent. Sheโ€™s building the thickest buds out of the three, stacking really well and showing the strongest early frost โ„๏ธ No issues at all, super stable and consistent. Bruce Banner #3 This one really took off this week. She made a huge jump in growth and the buds are getting heavy enough that one of the branches is starting to lean a little ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿ”ฅ The smell coming from her is amazing: sweet, citrusy and a bit chemical, very โ€œBanner-likeโ€. Bruce Banner #1 Sheโ€™s finally stabilizing again after her earlier issues. Her leaves turned yellowish/red due to a previous deficiency, but honestly it gives her a cool, colorful look now. I gave her extra nitrogen (CalMag/N) + did a light flush, and she seems to be responding well. Sheโ€™s back to focusing on bud development. All three plants got a quick follow-up defoliation just removing some missed fan leaves to open the canopy more and improve airflow ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿ’จ. Watering: #1 โ†’ RO + CalMag + extra N + one flush #2 + #3 โ†’ RO + CalMag only Environment: Temp: ~24โ€“25ยฐC RH: ~55% PPFD: ~1000โ€“1200 under the SE5000 Smell getting stronger every day: sweet lemon + chem ๐Ÿ‹โš—๏ธ Overall, a solid week with good bud swelling, increasing frost, stronger terp profile, and the first signs of buds getting heavy enough to need support soon. These Banner girls are definitely heading toward late flower now ๐ŸŒธโ„๏ธ๐Ÿ’ช

Ciao ragazzi e bentornati qui con me e le sorelle Limonose ๐Ÿ‹ Tutte 3 hanno smesso di crescere, la numero uno ha una struttura incredibile,๐Ÿ’ช mi sono pentito di non aver fatto Lst su tutte le sorelle.๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ La numero 2 รจ alta e ben strutturata ma ha una sola cola bella grassa. Mentre la numero 3 sembra piรน avanti delle altre con quasi tutti i peli arancioni e i buds di media grandezza. Le cole principali delle altre invece misurano circa 3/4 cm, ma sono ancora parecchio indietro๐Ÿ‘ Il colore รจ standard! Niente di particolare bei buds verde chiaro e pistilli bianchi ma sembrano molto gelide๐Ÿค™ L odore delle sorelle sembra diverso tra di loro. La numero 1 ha note accentuate di diesel e nocciola, la numero 2 ha un profumo aspro tipo mapo e la numero 3 ricorda un dolce cremoso al limone ๐Ÿ˜‹ Eh niente ragazzi! Aspettiamo che loro ingrassino per bene!๐Ÿ‘Š Grazie a tutti per aver guardato e restate sintonizzati per nuovi aggiornamenti.๐Ÿ™ Buona settimana e felice crescita ๐ŸŒฑ ๐ŸŒฑ ๐ŸŒฑ

31.12.24: I have been readjusting the LST pegs and wire daily. Sometimes, twice a day! (I know, too much time on my hands)! ๐Ÿ˜† The plants have responded fantastically! I'm so glad I gave it a go. Some plants have been a bit too tall, and I snapped Do-sรฌ-dos P3, pulling the stem down. Audibly snapped ๐Ÿ˜ฌI let it be, though. It seems to have healed mostly, in only 2 days. I have increased the lighting to 70%. They're getting watered a few times a week, with 1 litre of Dechlorinated water, containing the following nutrients and additives; 1ml of Biobizz Bio-Grow, 1ml Biobizz Top Max, 1ml of Biobizz Bloom, 2ml of cal-mag, 1g of Ecothrive Biosys. The plants are responding well to this concoction, so it's all good so far. The leaves are looking greener and are getting darker. Will be monitoring to continue readjusting the LST ties. Also, to monitor the increased lighting level, to make sure they can handle that yet. 1.1.25: Happy New Year! I have continued to readjust the LST wire and plant pegs. Several times a day. Coincidence would have it, I have a 6ft tropical aquarium which was time for cleaning! I always water my Acer tree in the front yard with this water, with beautiful results ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ‘Œ ๐Ÿ I decided to try it out in my indoor garden. I'll post photos of before and after to see the difference, good or bad ๐Ÿ˜… 3.1.25: Plants are doing very well, except for PPP3 I'm quite disappointed in that one, as I feel like it's wasting a space. I guess I'll have to keep it, along with the Do-sรฌ-dos that I snapped twice, which refuses to die ๐Ÿ˜… I started to lightly defoliate, which is difficult because I always get carried away with it. I'm going to water again with the nutrients in description of this week. 4.1.25: Continuing to defoliate and adjust the LST pegs and wire. Watered today with 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.0. With the following nutrients;- 2ml Biobizz Bloom, 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow, 2ml Cal-Mag, 2ml Ecothrive Flourish, 0.2 g/ltr of Ecothrive Biosys. I've increased the Nitrogen by adding double the amount of Biobizz Bio-Grow. I'm trying to keep them growing for as long as possible! I really want to keep the strength up and keep the leaves nice and lush green! ๐Ÿ’š Will update here with more photos and videos. Thanks for checking out my diary ๐Ÿƒ โœŒ๏ธ

Tues pm: raised light 4โ€ and turned up to 80%. PPFD 750 center to 350 on the edges. Used to trash bag from mulch cover. Wed: yesterday trimming up BB#1 I took 6 cuttings. Tnite I put them in CloneX; then into Root Riot cubes. Under a 15W 24hrs light cycle. Maybe Iโ€™ll have roots on a few in 10 days. Fri: Refill Earthbox 2.5G, raised light to 22in from canopy and 100% power.

Into Week 8 now and really filling out. A good solid healthy outdoor plant with little to no extra care or intervention so far, really happy with it and excited to see how it finishes out. Scratched in some Coast of Maine Fish Bone Meal toward the end of the week and then lightly watered in for a little feed.

no problems at all, as usual if things are dialed in but just as long as it is. i did not change water yet, i fill it up every morning until water reaches the plastic pot. The water is ph corrected 5.5-6.5 somewhere around that with the same nutes but in lower concentration so it adds up to 1000ppm

@18/06 Trying to get under control the raising EC. Tomorrow I will made the res change for the final stage. EC: 1.7 PH: 6.1 @19/06 New res: 11L with 3ml/L of Flash Clean (a.k.a. Flora Kleen) Putting the plant in the new res I saw some little bugs in the container. Hope this is not a problem. I'm going to make the flush until 7-10 days for final ripening. Tomorrow I will add to the res about 2ml/L of Ripen until the end. Today parameters are: EC: 268 PH: 6,2 ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ Lesson Learned: AVOID THE BUGS WITH THE YELLOW TREES ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ @20/06 Added 40ml of Final Part (Ripen).

Description With up to 27% THC, Strawberry Banana Auto is one of the most THC-rich strains to hit the market lately, this colossal autoflower grows up to 150cm and produces massive yields of up to 600gr/m2. An excellent strain for those looking for potent autoflowers that deliver both in quality and quantity. Expect an extremely sweet and fruity terpene profile with an obvious Strawberry and Banana aroma that comes hand-in-hand with a strong body high mixed with a cerebral high that boosts creativity; a strain that will surprise you with powerful yet well-balanced Indica and Sativa effects. Bud description The buds grow thick and slightly elongated with a light-green color and thin bright yellowish-orange hairs and dark-green leaves coming out of them; Expect super swollen calyxes that give the buds a distinct spiky look. Thanks to the outrageous trichome production the buds end up looking like itโ€™s been snowing in the grow tent for days, and upon harvest theyโ€™ll reek of a delicious mix of freshly harvested strawberries with a background of ripe bananas, making it a marvelous choice for extractors and hash makers who need a trichome powerhouse to take their products to the next level.Smoke report Due to the high THC level, this strain offers a strong hybrid effect; Upon smoking, you will feel a mild head buzz that gradually turns into a strong euphoric and uplifted cerebral high that leaves you focused and alert. The Sativa effect comes along with a warming corporal buzz that slowly sedates your whole body and can leave you couch-locked with strong munchies if smoked in excess. This strain is seriously recommended for those with a high tolerance and medicinal patients looking for an alternative to alleviate chronic pain, appetite loss, or severe anxiety.Plant appearance This strain grows vigorously and will clearly show its mixed heritage; The main cola grows tall, reaching up to 150cm followed by several side branches that stay short when compared to the main cola, but still grow quite long and develop multiple flowering sites that get completely covered in greasy buds from top to bottom. This variety remains compact and, despite its height, will maintain that typical Indica structure until harvest, where it will end up looking like a beautiful and atypically huge Indica. Grow tips Make sure you have enough vertical space in your grow tent, this strain can grow up to 150cm so itโ€™s recommended your tent is at least 200cm tall to avoid having problems in the last weeks of your grow cycle. Once the buds start fattening up they will get quite heavy so pay close attention to the branches and if you feel like they wonโ€™t be able to withstand the weight, use plant yo-yoโ€™s or bamboo stakes to provide support and prevent them from snapping. The strong strawberry banana terps are clearly apparent but remember to flush thoroughly to enhance the potent fruity terps even more.Flavor This variety offers an unforgettable taste of sweet tropical strawberries with a faint bubblegum background on the inhale and a more apparent ripe banana with a strong earthy background on the exhale. The perfect potency and terpene profile for hash makers and extractors looking for the most powerful strains with the strongest terpene profiles.

Tank clean and flush on day 4, Flush on day 5 and 6th day I pulled the freebie down and left two decent sized flowers on them to keep the roots alive. Straight after cutting them I added the nutrition back to normal. My plants did not show hardly any yellowing during the flush days. I wet trimmed the plant and hung upside down. I left everything on the stem so no loose buds. Everything with trichomes was bagged and put in the freezer.

Day 71๐Ÿ‘‹๐ŸŒฑ Started flushing. Giving ph controlled water at 6.2/6.5, I check TDS to water owerflowing from pot, bringing it to 50ppm from 400. Now Iโ€™ll start checking trichomes every three days, Iโ€™d like a 60% white and 40% amber. Day 72๐Ÿ‘‹๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ Hi all growers, how is going? Second flush, baut maybe the real first one๐Ÿ˜Ž, i gave 10 lt of ph controled water (6.5) and was checking ppm from water coming out. i gave water unitl it reach 400 ppm, my water is 200 ppm, i hope i'll bring it to 50 ppm for next flush in 3 days. This lady is so fat, and tasty already i can smell chocolate and pinus, i'm sure they're going to fatten up ๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ˜‰ Day 77๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ Keep washing it with ph controlled water, water now looks cleanest and buds are really blooming now, leaves are loosing color in favour to buds, i think i've got ther 6.7 days left to this lady cut.

09 May 2021 Today starts the 15th week of my grow, and the 6th week of flower. Just over a month till the scheduled harvest, and today the nutrient amounts change according to my feeding chart. So today feeding went like this: CALiMAGic 5ml, FloraMicro 7.5ml, FloraBloom 15ml. Today we arenโ€™t using any of the FloraGro, and wonโ€™t be for the rest of the grow. I chilled the water again, but not as long this time and the temperature of the solution was 56.3 degrees F. I thought it odd that the website doesnโ€™t allow for entries lower than 50 degrees in that block, but oh well. The initial pH was 5.89, and I added pH UP 2.5ml which adjusted the pH to 6.53. The runoff pH was 5.63. Lower than I want, but still within range for a healthy plant. Temperature in the tent was 81 degrees F, and humidity was at 53%. The plant looks great, and is maturing quite nicely. 11 May 2021 Today was a busy day! My DarkStar Kush is doing very well! The smell is starting to get stronger and the buds are fattening up as well. Iโ€™ve noticed some mild nutrient burn on some of my leaf tips, but nothing terrible. Iโ€™ll keep an eye on it to make sure that they donโ€™t get worse. I havenโ€™t really made any adjustments to the nutrients lately with the exception of increasing the FloraBloom by 2.5mlโ€™s, and stopped using the FloraGro in accordance with my feed chart. Feeding today went as follows: CALiMAGic 5ml, FloraMicro 7.5ml, and FloraBloom at 15ml. The initial pH was 5.85, so I added 3ml of pH UP to increase the pH to 6.52. The runoff pH was 5.65. I finally received my TDS meter today, so the TDS reading was 1070 ppm. My feed chart says that the ppm range in looking for is 1050-1400 ppm, so 1070 puts me in that range. I chilled the water again today, and it was 46 degrees F. The temperature in the grow tent was 81 degrees F, and humidity was 40%. So far so good, and Iโ€™m starting two new diaries today for some clones I was gifted by Buddabud, so check them out. 13 May 2021 Just when I thought I was on cruise control with my baby here, she throws me a slow curve. The question is; will I hit it, or miss it? The light nutrient burn that I noticed in my last entry on the 11th has gotten just a small tad worse, but nothing terrible. I believe itโ€™s not from the feeding, but the build up of nutrients in the soil. I finally got my TDS monitor as I noted the other day, so I tested the ppm in the runoff and it was over 4000. Then, as I was shaking the excess water off the end, the end cap for the battery came off and the whole monitor plunged back into the water completely submerging for a moment before I could get a hand free to grab it. Itโ€™s been sitting in a bowl of rice since yesterday. I just hope it dries out and keeps working. I need to see what the TDS of the soil at this stage is supposed to be and then either keep going and damn the burn, or maybe feed with pHโ€™ed plain water for a feeding or two and then see how it reacts. Iโ€™m still deciding, but will research first before making my decision. For today I kept to the feed chart. I gave the following: CALiMAGic 5ml, FloraMicro 7.5ml, and FloraBloom 15ml. The initial pH was 5.92, so I added 2.5ml of pH UP which raised the pH to 6.47. That is what I fed the plant. The TDS reading of the feed solution was 1036 ppm. Runoff pH was 5.63. Tent temperature was 79 degrees F, and humidity was 40%. I have just about 4 weeks left in this grow till the scheduled harvest. 15 May 2021 Today is the last day of the 6th week of flower, and Iโ€™m going to try and arrest my mild nutrient burn on my baby. Iโ€™ve decided to just give water and CALiMAGic today properly pHโ€™ed to see if it does anything to improve the situation. I wanted to have a significant amount of runoff today so I fed 1.5 gallons of water with 7.5ml of CALiMAGic. The initial pH was 7.60, but adding the pH DOWN is much different than adding pH UP! I initially added just 0.5ml to the gallon of water which lowered the pH from 7.60 to 4.9. I was like, โ€œDAMN!โ€ ๐Ÿ˜ณ so I had to pour it all out and start over again. I learned through research never to mix pH UP and DOWN in the same solution. If itโ€™s wrong, you need to start over;!so I did. After 3 tries and lots of wasted CALiMAGic, I finally got it right by only adding 5 drops (gtts) of pH DOWN to get it to 6.64. The TDS meter dried out and still works, so the TDS going in was only 403ppm. Like I said, I wanted a lot of runoff to try and clear out some of the nutrient buildup in the soil. The runoff pH was 5.58, and runoff TDS was 3803 ppm. Daytime temp was high today at 86 degrees F, and humidity was 31%. She looks good. She smells good. I hope she stays good! A few weeks left till harvest!
