Hello, Grow Diaries family! ๐๐
Iโm beyond excited to share the harvest report for my incredible Red Banana Pudding! This journey has been nothing short of amazing, and I canโt wait to dive into the details. Letโs get into it! ๐
๐ฟ The Harvest
After a wonderful flowering period, itโs time to celebrate the fruits of our labor. The Red Banana Pudding has reached its peak, and Iโm thrilled with the results! ๐๐
Visuals: The buds have developed beautifully, showcasing an array of stunning colors and a perfect density. The aroma is incredibly sweet and fruity, promising a delightful smoke. ๐
๐ Harvesting Process
โข Timing: Harvested at the perfect moment to ensure maximum flavor and potency. The trichomes were checked and showed an ideal mix of cloudy and amber for peak effects. โณโจ
โข Technique: I followed a meticulous process, ensuring each branch was trimmed with care. The process was smooth, and the final product is a testament to the love and effort put into this grow. โ๏ธ๐ช
Fun Fact: Did you know that Red Banana Pudding is renowned for its unique banana-like flavor with a hint of creaminess? Itโs a true treat for the taste buds! ๐๐ฐ
๐ฟ Post-Harvest
โข Curing: After trimming, the buds were carefully hung to dry in a controlled environment, maintaining optimal humidity and temperature. The curing process will enhance the flavor and potency, making for a truly exceptional smoke. ๐ฌ๏ธ๐จ
โข Batches: The buds are being sorted into batches to ensure even curing and to preserve the quality of each nugget. The anticipation is building as we wait for this next phase! ๐
Pro Tip: Proper curing can significantly impact the final taste and smoothness of your buds. Make sure to store them in airtight jars and burp them regularly! ๐
๐ฑ Looking Ahead
The Red Banana Pudding has set the bar high, and Iโm excited to see how it turns out after curing. This has been an incredible experience, and Iโm grateful for the support and engagement from the Grow Diaries community! ๐
Sneak Peek: Stay tuned for upcoming content, including taste tests and smoke reports! You wonโt want to miss out. ๐๐

Week 11 for 9lb Hammer F2,
Still on my list of least favourites in my garden ๐ They probably get the least attention in the garden too, they both got quite burnt from the sun this week compared to the rest, so not too heat resistant that's for sure. ๐

* Cold temps early this week, lights 24/7 from day 31 to keep temps steadier (24-25cยฐ).
* GWK #2 leaves pointing down day 32-33 , cold soil and a little underwatered the next day.
* Watering 700ml/pot with 6.5 ph, 19 cยฐ temp tap water with,
~ Active vera (biobizz), EM microorganisms, co2 tablet.
* Organic NPK to the others two ( Stomper #3, SODK day 33 ss, 28 day SODK. 25 gr/ pot.
* Smells not something special yet, LST going good, we ll keep pushing it a few more days.
ยค ๐ฑStomper #1 with aggresive LST starting day 14, not a good idea, small stretch so far, burn tips with no extra food maybe its light burn tip.
ยค๐ฑ Stomper #2 starting LST week 3, more nods, bigger plant better performance for this style.
ยค๐ฑ Stomper #3 the stressed one, no techniques here just a bit of defoliation.๐ค
โช๏ธ๏ธ๐ฟGWK #1 starting LST day 14, good reaction, taller nods than stomper.
โช๏ธ๏ธ ๐ฟGWK #2 starting LST day 21,not a big difference with #1, great response,bit sensitive to cold temps ( 2 days to rehab).
โ ๐ดSODK with different style of leaves, more indica dominant, but lighter green colour, starting LST n defoliation day 21, probably will stay in tent alone more than a week.๐คช
* Day 34 -> foliar spray with Acti-vera (biobizz) 2ml/l.
* Not much stretch this week, maybe the cold temps at the beginning of the week or just the genetics, healthy plants till now, no defficients.
๐ Last day of this week released the 4 of them (stomper #1,2 & GWK #1,2) from LST to get stretchy + second weeks 5 watering at 23cยฐ with EMs and 0,5ml/l snake poison (boron + other minerals).1
๐ฑ Healthy leaves n buds progressinge except GWK #2 cause stress earlier this week. ๐ง1ltr each n 600ml for stomper #3. 1st watering with 700ml at day 32.

Hello Folks !! The penultimate week just ends today, the largest wind leaves are already turning yellow. Today is the last day she gets HydroMix and PK 13/14. I can't wait to taste it, you can easily tell by the smell what DP took the name Orange Punch from. In addition to the orange, there is an intense skunk scent :D :D :D
Thank you for all comments and likes.
I love you all, You Lovely Girls Growers ๐ช๐ช๐ช

First week of flower is over and the stretch is on. Already started crushing and bending some branches on the taller plants to keep them as short as possible. They are really starting to fill out and the sour sorbet was fast to start popping pistils. I started some defoliation and cleaned up a few of the bottom branches. They need some more work over the next few days. I started them on a little maxibloom. I will increase it as I lower the maxigro over the next couple weeks. No water change this week and the ph is holding steady with no adjustments. Nutrients pumping 24 hours a day. Should see some nice fuzzy tops developing by the end of next week. I got some clones rooting from all but the twisted helix. They will be getting dusted with sugar cane pollen.

Harvest day 68
since time switch
to 12 / 12 h
Hey guys :-)
Finally it's time ๐
The lady is done the large leaves have been removed and hung upside down to dry in the dark drying room.
You can now stay there for 13-15 days at a temperature of 18-20 degrees and 55-62% humidity.
After 13-15 days it is neatly trimmed by hand and placed in jars with boveda packs 62.
After 4 weeks Boveda 58% come in and are ready for testing ;-).
After everything has been cut cleanly, the last update comes with the smoke report and the finished pictures.
Let's get to the plant ๐.
First of all I would like to compliment Green House for this genetics.
Unfortunately, the rating system at Growdiaries is a bit strange because I have to give the stars before the Smoke Report and in the end it might have led to more stars in terms of taste.
Unfortunately, this phenotype is nothing special, which is very annoying given the price :-(
The smell is ok, but nothing great, but the high is good, which is less important to me.
Have fun and stay healthy ๐๐๐ป

I would give this strain an average rating. Nothing great nor bad. I have had both better and worse strains.

22 Enero(F55): Solo queda una semana para terminar el cultivo, en estos รบltimos dรญas se estรก usando Fade de Athena Nutrients, para ayudar con la maduraciรณn y mejorar sabores y olores. La luz de los LED se bajรณ a un 50% y la temperatura del agua de riego tambiรฉn se disminuyรณ. Los olores estรกn demasiado potentes, tuve que poner filtro de carbono. Los รบltimos 4 dรญas se regarรก solo con agua de osmosis + Cleanse.

d.71. had trouble uploading video, so i uploaded some screenshots from the video.
d.72 shes looking better after the dose of orgatrex i gave her yesterday.
d.73 buds getting bigger ๐
d.76 i little bit of light bleach, burnt tips due to me readding the tabs and not being too gentle, so i might have broken a few roots in the process, thinking about maybe breaking the taps down to pieces next time ill be in the same situation with better timing, comparing to me re-adding more tabs too late.
also im getting a ac infinity tent down the road. been having high humidity due to winter weather comming in

It's been fun to see the 2 different pheno's develop of this strain, but now the Indica dominant one isn't going up anymore. I hope in the stretch phase she catches up with the rest. Switched to 12/12 on the 10th of november

Week 3 of flower complete and an interesting week to re-count. Let's jump right in....
Day 37 - I feel like I should be reporting more the fact is the Candy Kush is happy and very healthy and notch to do but keep the environment steady and stay out of her way. So that's what I did.
Day 38 - on this day I watered my lovely lady. She's adapted so well to the LST and just took off. She is the Candy of my eye. I was preparing to go to Vancouver for surgery so I gave a healthy top/bottom watering to cover for my time away.
Day 39 - This day was travel day so before we left I checked environment and raised my light to 20" to allow room to grow. She grows an inch to 1.5" a day during stretch. And we're off.
Day 40 - surgery day
Day 41 - travel day
Day 42 - after sleeping in my own bed I got up to water this morning. After 3 days she was just starting to drop her leaves. After watering she perked right back up again. I feel like my timing was good and suffered no issues. I also did some defoliation to clean up the bottom skirt.
Day 43 - Today all is good. Environment is spot on, and she's a happy girl. Took off a few LG fan leaves blocking sites that cannot be tucked.
So all in all a relatively easy week and a simple one for the Cabbage Farm. Thanks for checking in, I appreciate all your comments, likes, and feedback. Cheers ๐ฒ๐ฌ๏ธ till next week.

Day 71
I increased the height from the lamp a bit further trying to get about 600-700 ppfd across the canopy, just to help her finish and prevent trichomes from degrading into CBD too fast. Hopefully She will be ready to cut down this week.
Day 72
Still seeing a lot of clear trichomes, think we gonna be waiting for a while still. ๐
There's quite a few white pistils node still as well, which makes me believe she is still not done swelling.

What a week! the weather has not been very gracious to us. It has been pretty hot all day and humid at night. The majority of the day has the perfect setting but when the sun is at its peak it definitely puts a tool on the girlies. :'( We got a bigger fan to circulate air more but well have to see how that goes... Hoping for rain and some extra clouds soon!

This concludes the first grow and experiment with Sonnenerde Bio Hanferde Living Soil. And I'm very happy with how it went. She didn't get any PK Booster ACT, like Lemon Pie Auto (growing in parallel), but her trichome production and aroma nevertheless was impressive.
She aged absolutely beautifully, showing all kinds of lovely fall/autumn-colors on top of the dark purple she wore anyway.
Growing her was fun, and I'm looking forward to growing her again sometime, still got 2 seeds remaining.

Day 78 Update: Start of week 12! Watered plant with almost a gallon of pH balanced water until runoff. 4 days left of flushing on Plant #2. Going to play it day by day till harvest, depending on how this week's plans unfold.
Day 82 Update: Harvesting Plant #2 today. I will update the harvest part of the diary once I place these buds in jars. See you in a few days!
