End of the first few days of the transition. They all got a significant defoliation to open up space in the canopy for branching and the plants responded incredibly well to it. Plants 1&2 started to show immediate deficiency signs after defoliation and I upped the nute ratios by about 50%/liter with the Berkana. Voracious feeder and growers these are for sure. That said, their growth rate is phenomenal and the side branching is especially impressive and responsive to training. Veg. Maturity on all of em for the last week so it’s a fast growing strain all around👌. Well throw down the scrog net in a couple of days after we hack out the lower portions of each plant and take clones for all of em but the runt (#8). The clones will be flowered fast in the aeroponic cloner and pollinated for F3 generation seed. Bud characteristics on this run will then determine which clones get tested first based on best characteristics of the lot. So far this run has been incredibly impressive but only the bud quality will tell the true tale. Here’s hoping for continued good progress. ***Grow notes: stretching at about 1/2” per day over the last 3 days of transition. Side branching reaching enough maturity to start taking cuts. Minor deficiency signs post-defol. So increasing nute ratios on a slightly accelerated basis continues to be the norm.

Hello Diary. New diary, in the fifth farm I have three new residents, one Fat Banana and two Haze Berry. Both sides are from the Royal Queen Seeds. And this diary is dedicated only to Fat Banana. I would like to thank the team from the Royal Queen Seeds who have recognized my efforts in keeping a diary and greatly support me in what I love. I always try to make a balance between sativa and indica, since I do creative work, I am a big fan of sativa, although in the evening, when my obligations are over, I like to relax with indica. So this time I planted two Haze Berry Auto that are predominantly sativa and one Fat Banana which is more indica. WHY FAT BANANA? Fat Banana Automatic stinks of tropical fruits and produces large, chubby flowers. The strain is the autoflowering version of Fat Banana, an aromatic classic. The original made her mark on the cannabis world with her insane scent, massive THC level, and rewarding yield. Fat Banana Automatic inherited indica-dominant genetics from the original strain. Much like her predecessor, she provokes a body-slamming high par excellence. Her effects take hold immediately, plunging users into a euphoric state of relaxation. Fat Banana Automatic’s potency also gives her medicinal viability. Her calming nature is effective at reducing stress, and the physical aspect of her high may help to relieve aches and pains. The strain is ideal for evening smoke sessions. Users might feel too relaxed to function properly during the daytime. Cook some food, put on a good film, and get ready for a few hours of couch-lock. LET'S START FIRST WITH THE FARM SET-UP: Box - Secret Jardin DS120W 120x60x178 Lights - MIGRO 200+ Ventilation - Blauberg Turbo - E 100 Filter - Primaklima filter PK 100/125 Fan - Oscillating Koala Fan x2 Humidifier - Beurer LB 45 Soil - BIOBIZZ Light - Mix Pot - 11L AirPot Seed - Royal Queen Seed Nutrition - BioBizz and RQS Organic nutrition LET THE DIARY START OFFICIALLY: 14/09/2020 Planting. I prepared everything I needed for planting, cleaned the farm and changed the filter. I put Primaklima filter - PK 100/125. This time I decidet for AirPots, I also used them in the first two farms, BioBizz-Light Mix is ​​already standard on my farm and Easy Boost and Easy Roots Mycorrhiza Mix from RQS as organic nutrition. Since the first farm I use only organic fertilizers and for now I have used BioBizz and RQS organic nutrition. After I put the soil in the pot, I added 50g of Easy Boost Organic nutrition and mixed it well with the soil, after that I added 5g of Easy Roots Mycorrhiza Mix and also mixed everything once more. I prepared 7 liters of water in which I regulated p.H with Plagron’s Lemon Kick, and soaked the soil well before making a hole in which I put the seed. Otherwise, the water would have pushed the seed much deeper into the ground. After the planting is completed, they enter their new home. The temperature in the Box at that time was 26 degrees and the humidity was slightly below 60%. I set the lights 35cm from the pots as Migro recommends. 14 - 17/09/2020 I sprayed the surface of the soil with water a couple of times to keep the soil moisture at the surface. Also the humidity dropped so I put on a humidifier for a couple of days. 18/09/2020 Fat Banana sprouted, a day later from her first roommate Haze Berry. 19/09/2020 Watering. I watered with about a liter of water with regulated p.H. 23/09/2020 Watering. Regulated by p.H. at 6.4 and gave her approximately 1 liter of water. I think Grow Diaries made a great decision to put this germination week as an option, yet that germination process is just as important and it’s great to have room to write more and show how each of us does it. See you next week.

The temperatures, humidity, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil. Day 1 we have temperatures in the mid to upper 70's, clear skies, and lots of sunshine. We have no rain in the forecast for a few days 🙏 Day 2 we had lots of sunshine and clear skies. Highs in the upper 70's and 49% humidity. We needed the dryness. 🙏 Day 3 we had clear skies and sunshine. Temperatures were in the mid to upper 70's. Day 4 we had partly cloudy skies and temps in the middle 70's. I added some potassium and they seem to be responding well. Day 5 we had temperatures in the low 70's. Sky's were cloudy and we had showers in the evening. Day 6 we had rain the previous night and intermittently throughout the day. Temperatures were in the low 70's with cloudy skies. Day 7 we had clear skies sunshine. Temperatures were in the low 80's. This week was a success. There was more rain than I or the plants liked. We did have a few pistils brown up from the rain. There was zero boytritis and zero powdery mildew. These plants have not been treated with any preventative and they've flourished on their own resistance. The plants added a little more height. I expect that their stretch is over. Next week I'll add potassium to pump these buds out.

La altura de las plantas oscilan entre 35 y 50cm. La semana proxima se realizara una defoliacion del conjunto. Como se observa la cobertura de la zona de cultivo es total. Se prosigue con riego lunes, miercoles y sabados.

Hiiigh friends 🙌 Welcome to week 10. 😍 We are in the home straight and now we are really stepping on the gas again. The buds are still swelling and the terpenes are coming out more. I give her another 48 hours of light before I harvest her and hang her in the toke box. But I still have to be patient.. 😊 See you next week. 👋 Arturo for KannaKullektiv 🙏

Just finishing up the second week of budding here. The girls have grown a bit over the last few weeks and I've neglected to measure the heights and update them, the height in this diary is of the tallest of the 4. I'm really starting to see some bud development now, starting to really get excited about the results of this grow!

We have made it to day 42! 31/12/20 All the girls have started flowering now! I'm super keen to see them start to thicken up. Feeding as usual, nothings changed. Update - day 46 04/01/21 I'm a little concerned about the 2 runts that were laggin behind the rest, all of a sudden theyve decided they want to take up most of the room in the tent. I've never grown autos so big.. I was contemplating putting the runts outside but it's just going to make more problems as my outdoors are under attack from some kind of bug. I will keep the diary updated on the runts, other than that the other girls are doing just great, flowering is really coming along. Thanks for stopping by!

I have been training this one for a while, this is a rare lemonade pheno of strawberry lemonade which is totally leaning to the lemon side but not like a lemon skunk or lemon haze. It’s very lemon/diesel/sweet. Probably the nicest lemon type terp I have seen and can’t wait to get this one to the finish line

Very happy with this strain, fast and frosty! Only going to become a better grower by working hard everyday. Extremely pleasing smell and terpene profile.

This week I’ve decided to defoliate a bit, I just hope she doesn’t die bcs of it. Had to get rid of some yellowing bottom leaves as well as big, sun blocking fan leaves! Cloudy weather all week but coming week some nice sunny days are expected again! She has a nice pungent fruity smell which make me wonder if she isn’t the Sweet Tooth haha.

As said before, I'm incredibly happy that I got to harvest a little bit. Never expected her to make it, but she kind off did! The smell was pungent and sweet like an amnesia haze should be, hoping that will be even better after drying and curing!

Apr 11 The plant is now actively sacrificing lower, less important leaves. I've used flexible garden wire to separate the side colas from the main cola to help light get in. Things are fattening up and trichomes are developing.
