The week started with spider mites. I saw them on the frosted guava and decided to take all of my plants outside to separate them a little even if the temperatures dropped under 10 degrees Celsius. Also I found a cockchafer in the room which had obviously time to spread his eggs. After I did this, the amount of spider mites reduced. I ordered some predatory mites and nematodes which I will use as soon as the will arrive. 11.06 I watered the plants with 150+150+150 ml pure water. It’s the last bottled water. From here the plants will get only tap water. 14.06 released the nematodes with around 1-1,2L for each plant. 15.06 released the predatory mites on a wet kitchen paper towel 16.06 LST Frosted Guava

******************************************************************** START OF WEEK Went to the grow store and wound up with an AC Infinity EVO6. It should be a nice light for the future, and when my warranty replacement comes back, assuming that won't be an issue, it'll be nice to have a decent back-up. That's the bright side, but I am a little bummed about laying down the cash with ten to 14 days left. That part is the kick in the nutes. Fine, moving on. As for the grow, it's plowing forward. These plants are doing all the things we want them to do right now. They're getting fat, they're getting sticky, and the fade is fading away. Some branches may call for some last minute support, but for now the sucked-in tent walls will continue to suffice. The feed is still at 1100ppm and pk boosted, but the plan is to finish this week around 750. ******************************************************************** END OF WEEK Day 63 of flowering has arrived. I've backed off the nutrients. We're now sitting at 850ppm with about 6-8 gallons in the system remaining. This should equate to a Thursday refill with no feed, and then a Saturday or Sunday chop. VPD has been running a touch high this week, but that's not a concern. It's staying in the ideal range for most of the lights on period, and then trailing up in the last few hours to around 1.7-1.8. No biggie. The new light is really nice, but it runs hotter than the combo of the S22 and S44 (500W total), and that's with the EVO6 driver outside of the tent. This also isn't a big deal. The max tent temp is around 84, and before that wouldn't get past 82. Not a huge difference, and potentially better for the plants with the additional heat. I've got two CO2 mushroom bags in there, so more temp should mean more production at that level. I'm excited for this grow to finish and I'm looking forward to sampling the variety. I'm definitely using half, if not more, to make bubble hash. I'm probably just going to run it all together, as opposed to having runs for each pheno. I'll sample the tops independently, and smash rosin by pheno, but I'm not sold on isolating the hash. Seems like triple the work, but I've got a week to make further considerations, so we'll see. This will be my last grow until I sell this place and move into my next place. I'm going to miss growing. It's brought me a ton of peace by giving me something to anticipate, study, and take pride in. It's such an enjoyable hobby. I'll miss it in the time being, but I'm grateful that I won't need to step foot inside of a dispensary in 2024. Big win there! Everyone should grow their own.

week 11 75 days according to the breeder this strain has 7-8 weeks of flowering. with the possible stress that the plant has suffered maybe it has slowed down its growth a little. but since I'm not impatient and I have time is not a problem. I like to let it mature on point so I let it roll for another three weeks. As for the sample I took a week before... it was on a good track. I could already feel some notes and aroma but deep down. very heavy and harsh smoke, to remember that there was no flush or cure, just dry. Now its waiting for the whole plant dry. 🤞🙏

Hi all, Welcome to my🍌💜👊 week update Thank you so much for all support on this bananas journey. Much appreciate all your likes, follows and comments. 🙏💚❤️💜 Week 13 Jan 8- Jan 14 This was another amazing week. Girls are behaved very well. Drinking their juice like crazy. 2 waterings of 9ltrs on Jan 10th and Jan 13th. Runoffs at ph 6.2. Buds are gaining some serious weight and the trichomes development is of the charts. Girls are covered with frost. Trichomes are mainly milky now with individual ambers here and there. On Jan 10 noticed on one Athena top colas a white topped bud! It's something that has never happened to me. It may be only led bleach or it's something abnormal and phenomenal. It's white and has red and amber pistil hairs in between and all covered with trichomes. Few days after. White coulour is not spreading and not seeing any damages. The smell in my cabinet its insane. Very sweet scents. I wouldn't say bananas but definitely sweet berries and gummies 🤤 new dehumidifier doing an amazing job. Humidity when light is on is between 49-54% and 52-58% when lights are out. It's all looking that my 🍌💜👊 girls will be ladies very soon. Harvest is coming big time. Next week planning to gradually cut nutrients down and prepare for flush. Stay tuned for new week update very soon! Peace and love brothers and sisters ✌️💚👨‍🌾 Links https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/banana-purple-punch-auto https://plagron.com https://www.biobizz.com/ https://fishheadfarms.com/

After vegging the plants for a few weeks I transplanted them to the flowering tent. They will stay in veg a maximum of 1 more week and then I will switch them in to flower. I also added worms to the soil to keep it nice and airy and have a as natural grow as possible.

We are now on week 5 of flowering ! I've noticed the stretch has finally come to a halt and that the flowers are getting thicker and thicker by the day . GG#1 is recovering well from my mess up but some of the damages will remain . She's still in fantastic shape She just wont be what she could have been . GG#2 is pumping out all her flowers pretty well evenly and things are going great for her , during veg i fed her way way way way to much haha this is why she has the darker green then the rest even tho the rest are equally as fed as her granted one strain isnt GG like her but one of them is and its far less green haha . Another 2-3 weeks and it will be time to start my flush ! A special thank you to all my followers and the people who come down to show their support and liovemuch appriciated you guys rock ! I wish you all the best through the hollidays ! Keep on keeping on guys ! -Happy Growing!

Meine Babys starten nun in die 4. Woche der Vegetation. Einige Ladys haben bereits Vorblüte Stadium erreicht. Sie werden alle 2-3 Tage gegossen, alle 7 Tage bekommen Sie die angegebenen Nährstoffe. Bisher ein optimaler Run, keine Wachsstumsstörungen durch Stress, keine Defizite ersichtlich. Möglicherweise mein bester Run bisher. Sie bekommen Bat Guano als Microbenquelle, Rohr Molasse als Futter Quelle für die Microben, Dann Hesi Vit, eine Enzym Konzentration ( max2. Tropen auf 5 L) & Seawead fertilazior, was das genau bringt weiß ich nicht genau aber es wirkt 😄🏽‍♂️

Day 77. Maybe a bit early, but no space and one Smoothie went for a date with bud rot ;))) didn't want to loose that nice top. Very frosty, nice gassy smell surrounded by fruits. Day 82. Second girl is down. Both small as you see, but with few branches will produce seed packaging cover type plant. Maybe second got some purple fade ... First was very nice by structure. Day 85. First went to jar. How lovely it sparkles and smells !!! Solid strain, even being so small by structure. Day 89. Second is in jars too ! Happy Growing !!!

Harvested these two ladies on D75. I'm over satisfied with the result, unfortunately didn't weight the dry result but the smoke from these two are amazing. Been daily smoking it for the past 2~ months and I still got a good chunk left. #1 Came out with a skunky and a slightly chemical taste and smell. Super nice and strong smoke, you feel your eyes getting heavy after a couple puffs. Nice chunky nugs, big yielder even under only 150W. Super satisfied with the result. #2 Was surprising, garlic smell all over the place. During the drying process I felt a slight wild garlic smell, but after drying it became even more potent and smelly. Upon breaking these nugs the room gets filled with a potent wild garlic smell, which translates to a fresh potent smoke. One of my favourites so far, unfortunately my tent is too small to comfortably accommodate two plants and this one wasn't a particularly big yielder. Overall I'm VERY satisfied with my first Mephisto grow, amazing genetics, super resistant (had a couple weeks of very hot days, to which they handled amazingly). A success grow for me for sure. Next I'll try a photo strain, thanks for reading! :)

she's been filling out nicely over week 7 of flower. Shes put on a lot of weight, requiring me to tie up a few of her branches to support them. still giving her half strength feed and she seems to be more than happy with that, will keep to the same schedule for week 8 which will be the last week before flushing. Unfortunately there are a lot of spaces in between the nodes on the top colas which was due to an excessive defoliation during flower, however it has allowed for more of the lower bud sites and lower branches to receive more light and in turn fill out more than the would have if the top colas were taking all of the light. I will see how detrimental this will be with final harvest weight.

Another week down and I think its time to move the camera up a bit. Getting hard to keep them both in that dumpy camera's optics. At some point I'm doing to invest in some decent glass for these videos. The plants seem to be rocking along fine after their initial topping. Did some light defoliating here and there but I'll pretty much leave them alone from this point on. I might do a bit more training but honestly I'm not after a perfect canopy.
