It's day 11 since they sprouted and I must say I love what they are showing,😍 Since a few days it is clear to see the differences between the two pheno's. Pheno 1 is looking good, the first leaves had 5 blades instead of the normal 3 and is creating a beautifully Indica shaped plant💪 Pheno 2 has a little mutation on the fist leaves where she produces only two blades and they are partially grown together, but she has a nice development. I have no Idea at this stage which of the two I will leave for flowering. I have only watered them once since the beginning, with 1litr of water each and a bit of root stimulator, the BAC Lava Soil keeps moisture very well and that allows me to water less frequently. As you can see the vertical development of the plants is not rapid, but as I said before, this is strain that has a prolonged vegetation time so I would say it is going good. Fingers crossed it all goes well. 😎

Another steady week! Some serious development of the terps is in the air! 😝 Again some good growth both vertically and filling out the canopy. Bud sites are popping up here and there which pleases me as it’s turning out great for my first effort with scrog and LST! I swapped out the Bestiva LED for a 150watt HID Mh lamp. Really considering putting in a 600watt for the last few weeks, what’s your opinions!?? As always, tips and criticism all welcome guys and gals! Much love to you all and all the best with your own grows 👌👍✌️🌱😎

Hi all 🧑‍🌾 Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update. Hope everyone keeping well and having a great week😁 Thank you so much for so much support on this bananas ride 🙏💜💚💜💚 Everything still going pretty well. Girls are developing and stretching like crazy. Athena currently Dec 14 90cm and main stem of Xena is not far of this height either. Unfortunately noticed first signs of calcium deficiency(my opinion) on Athena. Thankfully started feeding both girls with calmag weeks back but the dosage wasn't not enough for Athena. Started small treatment very next day on Dec 11 (see description below) I belive got my baby back on right track. Week 9 Dec 11-17 Dec 11 Watering was planned for Tuesday but due to calcium deficiency decided for a little treatment. Watered both girls with mixture of reduced content of growth nutes by 50% calmag at 1.2 ml per ltr. Reduced solution PH to 6.2 as apperently it's ideal for calcium consumption. Over period 4h I have watered Athena with 5ltr with couple runoffs. Xena 3ltr. Total of 7-10 leaves affected mainly at top colas close to the light. Dec 12-13 Purely observation and all looking well. Of course all affected leaves will progres of showing signs but good news is that growth and development booming and don't see any new leaves with symptoms. Very nice trichomes development in recent days and more and more colours. Dec 14 Second watering for this week 6.5l Increased calmag to 1.4ml per ltr and if still things will be looking well reduce to 1 or 1.2 on next feeding. Dec 15 Very nice respond on yesterday feeding. They definitely fatten over night and getting more and more frosty. Will need to remove some foliage soon as getting extremely bushy again. Dec 17 Xenas main stem top cola almost touched the light today. Tied her to left side of the cabinet, applied selective defoliation on both girls, tied few branches to netting and on the end of this busy day a third watering for this week. 7 ltrs beetwen both. Runoffs Xena PH6.4 Athena 6.3. Very nice week have to say. I belive that calcium deficiency on Athena is no longer a case here and both girls developing very nicely. Both are still stretching, buds are gaining in size and both girls started exploding with trichomes, Thank you all again for such amazing support 🙏peace and love brothers and sisters ✌️💚💜💚💜💚 Stay tuned for new week update 😉🧑‍🌾✌️💚

D29/V25 - 29/04/23 - Benting D30/V26 - 30/04/23 - EC 0.9 pH 6.5 D31/V27 - 01/05/23 - LST and Benting D32/V28 - 02/05/23 - Some other LST D33/V29 - 03/05/23 - Added water and nutes - EC=0,9 pH=6,5 D34/V30 - 04/05/23 - LST D35/V31 - 05/05/23 - Nothing

I will update the diary after the buds are done curing

Girls are no longer children. They gain in beauty and bloom. Together we rejoice in their beauty.

Two Ethos Mandarin Bubba grown from seed, ended up being completely different phenos. One is dark purple almost red and other was lime green.

A beautifull Week 5 is behind us... She is going FANTASTIC for an legal BIO grow... Amazing branches and BIG size from BIG Seedbank...💪💪👌👆 Great genetics... I hope she keeps going like this... fingers crossed..🙏

1/4 Week 8 Vids and Pics here is a run down: In Flower tent Full Bloom nuets Pussy Galore (FF7) stretch has slowed Octopussy(LSD) As tall as Pussy she hopefully is slowing Plenty (GC) growing really nicely stretch is very manageable Half n' Half Solitaire (CC) Love it Chew Mee (F2) Ditto Bambi (F6) just arrived In veg - big girl feed 20ml/g grow + Kangaroots Dink(FF2) Tiffany Case - Gold Leaf Thumper - FB FFT-8 Holly Goodhead - FB FFT-7 Mary Goodnight - ILGM Gold Leaf Kissy Suzuki - Fast Buds Wedding Cheese Cake Strawberry Fields - Fast Buds Strawberry Pie Wedding Ch Cake still in recovery getting same as clones. Clones: All planted but three and two of those will be today ... and those were planted do not think the last one is going to root looks bad 1.5ml/L Grow + low kangaroots with a weak 1/4 str nuet foliar (no kanga) 12/5 GD wont let me add more than 8 strains (f them) so will be cranking up the Bond auto fire grow for the wedding ch cake and Straw Pie Giving my wife those to raise so she will be growing them. I got enough to do Soon as the plant stands get in be moving Dink into the flowering tent Entire veg tent now on 20ml/gal of Grow A/B 2 ml/gal kanga except clones and the seedling they remain as is Will be flipping this tent to 12-12 sometime in about a week after the clones are moved 12/6 Looking at the Flowering tent and thinking forward there is no way for me to put another plant in it without hurting the grow. These last three that went in are going to get large-ish just like the others I hope we flipped small enough. Think so was pretty small Reduced Bloom 2ml increased PK same think its wanted So topped Dink to slow her down and let her widen a bit so the rest can get a bit larger, she will remain in the 4x5 and flip with the rest. Things pretty good in the veg tent today. refuse to give up on Honey she looks like she is turning a corner. Increasing nuets a bit on her Gold Leaf is growing great classic indica may regret not cloning them but have no way to deal with it now. 1/7 Fighting a bit with tall plants and lights think its worked out Pics with labels posted 1/8 Dropped PK back to 2.5ml/g Pussy and Plenty doing great nice building already but Octopussy is lagging behind so may be too much PK real possible thus the cut. Went to a high {K for the GC and F7 they burn right through it Good progress on the plants flipping keeping them on half-half till full flower Veg is just gorgeous only issue so far is getting too much light on some plants, she working on that. Honey has picked up her leaves I give her a 3 of 4 chance and increasing to make it now just up to her.

Hey guys! Sorry for the late update, I've been hella busy lately! 😱 This week was good and for that very reason it was uneventful. I did some defoliation to let the lower branches receive more light and it seems the plants received it well. 😁 Matcha still has some weird looking leaves 😰 but I suppose those are old leaves and they are just there because I didn't cut them earlier. Pistachio in another hand is doing great! 😍 I also took some photos of their roots, they look interesting! I suppose they are that way because the root mass below them must be huge. Anyway, that's all for now. Thanks everyone for reading! 👋

Back after a reporting gap. In that 20 days or so I just let things stretch as it moves into flower, taking branches to make room, and defoliating. Things got a little taller than I wanted but overall I am happy with the spacing. There was a slight molybdenum deficiency that went away when I started using my flower booster. But other than that, nothing all that interesting.

One plant seems to be much stronger than the other two although watering and nutrients have been the same. My larger plant seems to be clawing at the tips and I’m not sure what’s causing it. High nitrogen possibly? The last watering was yesterday and I didn’t use any nutrients.

Just been topped and a light but of training g started

Almost time for harvest, can't wait to taste the fruits of my labour........... Hope it tastes and gives me a really good high! But we will find out once I do the review. Happy Growing guys

As we mark the culmination of week 4, we stand on the brink of a significant transition for our plants. This period, characterized by attentive care and meticulous cultivation, has seen our plants flourish in their vegetative stage. They have developed robust root systems and lush green foliage, which are evidence of their vitality and resilience. But in the world of plant growth, time is always of the essence. It is imperative to recognize when to shift gears and usher in the next phase. With that realization, we are poised to send these plants into their flowering stage in just a few days. The preparations for this pivotal moment have been both detailed and extensive. Understanding the significance of this transition, we have preemptively amended the soil. Soil amendment is a cornerstone of ensuring that our plants have access to all the essential nutrients they require during the flowering stage. This period demands a different nutrient profile, with an emphasis on phosphorus and potassium, which are vital for bud development and overall flower health. Our amendments ensure that the plants won't be lacking in any crucial elements, thus setting the stage for optimal flower production. Beyond the soil, the atmosphere in which our plants reside is equally critical. It plays a central role in determining how efficiently the plants can carry out their metabolic processes, particularly photosynthesis. Therefore, we've made the necessary adjustments to create an environment primed for 'blastoff'. By meticulously controlling factors such as temperature, humidity, and light duration, we've fostered a setting that is conducive to the onset and thriving of the flowering stage. In essence, every decision made has been in pursuit of one objective: to offer these plants the best possible conditions to blossom into their full potential. As we look forward to the weeks ahead, we anticipate a rewarding flowering phase, a testament to our diligence and the intrinsic vigor of the plants themselves.

The girls have filled my space very nicely! i'm heavy handed on the defol trying to optimize bud sites & trying my best to keep everything even as i know these girls will stretch hard! Girls have been enjoying plain water and foliar sprays including EM1

Sooo I added a scrog net a few days ago to get the branches more outward beacuse they were growing way to bushy. Seems to be a good solution! Did a nother update for this week because of the trichome beauty that they have. They both smell really really fruity and somewhat gassy, if you ever grew a Cherry Cola from FastBuds and you loved the smell then this strain is specially for you. The smell reminds me so hard of the Cherry Cola and I fcking love it

LOOKS GOOD. GROWING STEAD. ONE OF THE BEANS SPROUTED 1 WEEK BEHIND. REMAINING 4 SIMILAR SIZES. NO MUTATED OR SHRIVELED FAN LEAVES. SINCE OUTDOORS. IM NOT GONNA TRAIN TOO MUCH THIS TIME. SINCE THE SUN WILL HIT IT FROM ALL DIRECTIONS. LET'S KEEP HANDS OFF AND SEE HOW IT GROWS.

Monday May 10th: Didn't wake the plants up this morning with the light! Time for 36 hours of darkness and then harvest tomorrow morning😊
