Week 9: Post-Vacation Bloom & Humidity Vigilance
Update: 22.07.2025 | Day 70
Back from vacation - ladies made huge progress! Weather shifted from hot/sunny to rainy/humid (22°C). Mold prevention is now top priority.
Strain Check:
Green Crack
Developed beautifully but has fewest bud sites by far. Buds thicker than others - constant humidity checks essential. Gorgeous structure with spot-on mango aroma. Resin queen: sticky like flypaper to the touch. At least 2 weeks to go.
Forbidden Runtz
Looks fantastic with the best fragrance of the trio. Resin production accelerating, but buds show slight foxtailing (heat stress from previous weeks?). Solid 15-20 bud sites. Should finish in ~2 weeks.
Bruce Banner
Still the star with perfect even canopy. 20+ long candle-like buds forming. Resin/smell least developed but has 3-4 weeks left. Critical: Defoliation for airflow to prevent mold in this humidity.
Critical Actions:
-Daily inspection for curled leaves inside buds (early mold sign)
- Reduced Bokashi feeding (1:150 weekly)
- Strategic defoliation: Remove only touching leaves
- LST adjustments to increase branch spacing
- Morning stem shakes to dislodge moisture
Stay blazing, keep growing!
Catch y'all next week,

Week 7 of bloom, and I’m thrilled with how things are turning out!🌟
One of the plants has been fully flushed this week and is now ready to be harvested.🌱✂️
It’ll soon be hung up to dry, marking the end of its journey. This plant was incredibly quick, going from seed to harvest in record time—impressive!🍂😊
That leaves me with the other Banana Purple Punch, which has now started its flushing phase.
In about 1 to 1.5 weeks, it’ll spend 48-72 hours in complete darkness before being harvested. This plant is looking fantastic, and I’m excited to see how it finishes up.
Overall, I’m very satisfied with this grow. Each plant has shown its unique character and pace, making the process both rewarding and educational. Can’t wait to see the final results from the Banana Purple Punch!😊

- Drying for 3 days, the 2 airports-plants chopped and dried in the dehumidifier and the other 2 hanged upside down as they were.
- Humidity -> 40-50% and temps -> 21-24C°.

So week 7 down and this is the longest they’ve stayed looking this healthy.
Finally avoiding under / over feeding them once they’ve used up all the nutes in the soil around week 5/6.
This last week just a top dress with a locally sourced 2/8/4 organic amendment.
And not overwatering of course, I’m giving them 3/4L every 4/5 days when the pots are properly light. Seems to have done the trick so far. Pretty stress free.
Only issue is SP2. Not sure if it’s just a weird plant or I messed it up somehow. (I’m going with plant error as the others are fine). Anyway it just didn’t stretch, at all. Basically no side branches and all it’s pistils are shrivelled up already, looks about a week away from harvest with these puny little buds. Weird little thing. Only keeping it going for shits & giggles as there’s still space for it in the grow.
This next week more of the same.
Have put swapped the 600w bulb in for the 400w bulb as I try and gradually increase the light.
Still in plenty of weed from last grows. Still no money spent on wankstain kids selling me crappy weed. Bank balance transformed. Big smiles in this household.
Thanks for reading, have a great week 😊

the plants slowed down a bit this week due to pruning, but then they resumed and are developing well

This is the week 2!
Well, the plant looks really healthy, and she kept growing up, straight to the light!
Good to see that even after the strange beginning, with the stem crooked, she recover her path!
This week, I'm also planning to start feeding them with some NPK.
Just need to read a little bit more about it and buy nutrients.
Probably I'll try Canna stuff. Anyone know if it's good?

Day 49 - lookin good..... been bending her, trimmin abit, messin with the water solution.....
ph and ppm have been all over the place..... lol
she's been transitioning from grow to flower, and once she settles into night mode, the
solution and growing should stabilize......
the new fan is cool... tents working properly now, neg pressure, drawing in air behind the floor fan, blown around the bottom,
and cpu extractor fan pushing the air out the top of the tent, straight into the filter..... really nice way to run a little tent, low airflow........
keeps the impurities out of the buds.....
the stalks have all tuffened up since trimmin, and pretty strong now.... should hold the full weight that's about to occur all over the place......
i've simplified the nutrients, they were gettin alittle confusing, so started doin nuets differently, .... so,
just making my own nuet solutions, nothing fancy just base amount of normal elements ....
should be a pretty good christmas ......
Day 51 - pics/vids...

Off to week 5 and my ladies are looking healthy again after one week of struggle.
Super excited for their progress this week.
Height growth is now really noticable and I increased watering to 750ml/plant.
Turned my SF SE3000 up to 80% and increased the distance to 60cm.
So far they are loving it and I'm right on track for a good grow!
