start of a new journey with my sponsor 420 fast buds, follow along:)

Day 15. Girls are steady but no major growth yet. Day 19- stardawg girls seem to be just a bit infront in terms of growth rate compared to the GSC. 2 stardawg, 2 Girl Scout cookies in soil. One of each in rockwool cubes which seem to be growing nicely. Just double stacked them today. Used the rockwool along side soil as a little experiment as I’ve had good results in the past. Due to these being autos I’m wondering if they would of all been better in cubes. Time will tell. Also had one of the Girl Scout cookies showing possible overfeeding but keeping a close eye on all plants and feeds will be just water till I establish what’s caused it. Any questions feel free to ask!

Swapped the plants this week as I realized I could use the 200w light to cover both the smaller plant and the lower canopy of the larger one more effectively. Hopefully this will allow sufficient light to cover more of the plants, as the lower canopy of the larger plant was 30 inches from the light! Now since I can lower the bigger light to accommodate the shorter plant, I can cover the left side of the bigger one, lowering the light to 23 inches, which is definitely better. The buds don't seem to be filling in quite as quickly this time but they are definitely making progress! I am guessing about another month, but who knows? I'm going to let them take their time and let me know when they're ready. Other than that was a pretty uneventful week, as I'm kind of coming into the final stretch I have stopped the lst and only trim the leaves that are blocking bud sites. They definitely appear more stressed than they have been, with a lot of bright purple stems connected to the leaves, but to me they look healthy enough to make it to the finish line!

I made a video update for week 10. Remember to turn on audio of you want to hear the scrambled voice of freedom.

Added Buddy into the feed halfway through this week. Really impressed with these nutrients so far. All plants look happy, healthy and green.

Its beginning to be realy interesting out here ! the two on the back are like twin sisters, and the other one is more short. Its realy hard to take pictures now, so i try to take at least one video at the end of every weeks. feeded them with 1ml biogrow/biobloom/topmax /L see ya !

tbd.

Tuesday 29 Jan Day 94 Aphid attacks on 2 plants.. Got 3 medical 2046 and 2 kush clones for now on their way for reveg 🤞 Update: after watering them one Medical 2046 fell, then checked in the soil where it broke and.... Full of white ants they ate the whole stem! Oh Africa... Gonna have another pretaste..

Been hitting her with the Bio Bizz nutes and looking good so far. However, she IS turning purple and it's a bit concerning to me. The purple is nice tho, not gonna lie. Can't wait to see how fat she's going to be in the next few weeks.

Girls had a good week of mostly sun and rain for the end of the week. Upped the girls feed yesterday to 1400 ppm 2.8 ec, Almost to the max for outdoors, in the ground, grows. Girls are a nice green with big beautiful leaves. No clawing or burnt tips and the stems of the leaves are all green like they should be.the Breakup Cake and the Silver Widow in this garden are a lot smaller than the gelato, but that is fine. I will have a week of steady trimming as it is now. Thanks for your interest and thanks to Kannabia for supplying some awesome genetics

COLOMBIAN JACK by KANNABIA Week #21 overall Week #10 Flower This week no issues she getting close to being done a few more weeks for this lady she's looking good and smells great!! Stay Growing!! Kannabia.com COLOMBIAN JACK

just about finished up this week. Choc mint 1 is about ready for chop. Chopped couple of main colas as i seen couple of signs of budrot. Dropped lights down to 400w each as temps are starting to rise above 30c. Choc mint 2 is looking unreal. Heaps of huge colas,think i will pull the most of this one. Will probably give till day 65.

Trying to dial their veg in. Nutes may be too old or too high. Changed with 4ml CaMg per gallon of RO water. The rest is MaxiGrow. Ever since adding rockwool to the grow, I have struggled. I don't have the dry back timed right yet. I moved my fan to dry the top of the pot surface instead of in the root zone or at the canopy height. After about 10 days I dumped out the rockwool and have replaced with hydroton. My initial though on using rockwool was to give the roots more space during late life stages. My experience has been with hydroton and I notice that the roots eventually get bound because the hydroton is a durable material and will not crush or compact. Rockwool on the other hand will compress when squeezed so I was hoping that in the late life stages the roots would compress the rockwool and make more room in the pots. The issue was dryback. If I used chunks instead of croutons, this may help but the other reason I used them was because I had them here already. If anyone is trying to slow their dryback down, they should consider adding 10% volume of croutons to hold moisture in the medium a bit longer. Notice anything different? They are starting to adapt to their new media. Hopefully by next week I can get them to perk up. One plant has looked better than the other three. I have no idea what these plants need to “perk up”. Possibly a different grower. If a grape terpine wasn’t in the end results I would have culled these long ago. Hopefully they perk up when we get to flower. 3 look ,,,, meh, the fourth is descent. Trimmed all four back down to 12” tall. Flower next week.

❤️✌️✌️

They’re on an 11/13 light schedule. Can’t wait until they reach puberty!! Of note, my version of Silky style early topping Notice the single shoot node on what is the biggest one The clay pot proved to be no advantage. That plant is smaller than most.

Plants are coming along. Started week 6 today. Week 5 ended yesterday.

What up Fam, weekly update on these lovely ladies, going into week 9. They've handled this heat wave we're having like the Champs they are, not even skipping a beat Growing. The tent is definitely smelling mesmerizing and the flowers are looking spot on. All in all Happy Growing

13th - Checked the power usage data from the AC unit and the Smart logs: around the time heat stress on #1 occurred the AC barely turned on. New zigbee sensor is working well it seems! CO2 tank is almost completely empty. I lost a fair bit from a few incidents I suppose, maybe a lot more than I thought!?.. ..want to look into stopping CO2 when AC is running with smart power switch and app. 14th - CO2 tank depleted. Setup smart plug on CO2 regulator, works fairly well. Occasionally stays on for a bit more than it should, but then self corrects. I can take that as an improvement.. 15th 16th - Replenished water tank - TDS 650 , gave both a good soak, runoff was 1200 initially and eventually down to 800. 17th - Concerned about density - have clipped several sappy buds growing into already thick areas - hoping to improve ventilation within the canopy. Rotated the pots a bit and adjusted the tie downs.

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/
