Yooooooooyoyoyoyoyooooo, Beginning of week 12. Could i harvest already? Yes. But i want to wait at least one more week until harvest so probably week 13. I read that waiting a week more than usual can boost potency and yield as long as it won't get too hot, but it won't - hopefully lol. The E.C. was kinda high 1.1 So i partially cleaned the reservoir, emptied about 6 liters and refilled it with pH water Well the Plant is looking absolutely stunning and is definitely one of the best looking plant i ever grew. In Reallife she is looking so much better. Over all trichomes over trichomes, the buds get more and more purple, and they look SO dense, I LOVE IT! Really good genetic. If i can get my hands on the Photoperiod strains from fastbuds i will grow some mother plants and will try cloning for the first time, Growing in Deep water culture is awesome. For me, it's more fun than on soil. i want to try coco but if i try coco i will buy something like the autopot system. im too stupid for hand watering and will screw up at some point. the less i have to handwater the lower the risk Thats for this week, have a wonderful day, and see you next week, cheers!

Hi all🧑‍🌾 Welcome to my final 🍌💜👊 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 all❤️💜💚 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 🙏❤️💜❤️ Peace and love brother and sisters ✌️💚🧑‍🌾 Smoke review coming in shortly Links https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/banana-purple-punch-auto https://plagron.com https://www.biobizz.com/ https://fishheadfarms.com/

back row has one cola that has shot up and isnt direct under the light so its growing up and not being burned or light bleached happily for me. Blue nemo on left is much further along in bud development, V is going to get harvest much later i'd guess. I'm going to harvest top and let lowers fillout and finish a bit after mid day 70s, we still have a couple weeks at earliest I'd guess.

Another week down, we're heading into week 8 of flower and it looks to be beginning it's fade with the top leaves going yellow. I don't think this is a deficiency this late in the game, The buds have matured alot this week with a lot of pistols turning from white to brown. Trichome production looks to be solid. Next week we will start checking the trichomes to see how far away from harvest we are

Buds are developing nicely😁 and the ladies are already quite odoriferous lol big word for the day. Everything looking good. Fed 2 gal each (more for the big headband(5) and the skywalker (3)) at 1100 ppm...5.9 ph and they seemed to love it. Next feeding ill prolly push it to round 2.5 gal at 1250-1300 ppm...5.8-6.5 ph. The mutant alaskan is annoyin the hell out of me. I got 6 and they all have atleast a few twisted multicolored leaves but nothin like the one in the pic. Growth is stunted but its still hanging in there. Who know maybe itll grow sum mutant fire.

Was not my best grow. But the ZKittles by Fast Buds were strong, grew well and I am sure the next grow will be much different. I would have liked a bigger harvest, but I did learn from my experimenting with the feeding schedule. I will definitely be growing these again. Even with my getting off track the plants recovered quickly at a crucial time and produced some really nice buds. All in all, I'm happy

The heavy rain and winds are coming. And yes they have struck at my beautiful ladies. 2 trees were damaged. But with quick action and a nice dose of feedings. They do it just like before. The cellmax nutrition and Bionova. Do their job well. If you also grow on earth, I recommend it to you. Hold on for a few more weeks. I'm sorry if I make a mistake in the weeks. I'm doing my best to just make a nice update green greetings CaptenSmokey 😊👍

Plants are going into flower. I took night time pics so you can see them sleep. They are a all looking great. This girl is shorter at the moment at 18 inches. Very nice branching on all three plants. I should defoleate and remove some of the bottom branches now.

I'm mitigate from this experience , the grow was not optimal why ? Maybe because my main thing is not to grow auto flower but femenised , the #3 was hermaphrodite plant ...
