Alright first off, the nanners were mostly sterile and/or removed by Yours Truly.
I could barely find any seeds actually. So far I have only 2 after handling every bud. I did defoliate heavily and put them under very intense lighting. Probably, the male parts were stress induced. I would not fault Dinafem anyway because hermaphroditism can happen. And let's be honest, if you look at those plants do you see a female one or a real hermaphrodite? BTW, this plant was so good that I can't wait to grow the seeds- and I am not a fan of "bag seed"
From a 2x2 I got a little over 130 grams. But let's not talk about yield because this is truly some amazing quality. The smell is 10000% kush, you will love it.
I have a second seed that shows exactly the same leaves, stems and smells as this one. So I have faith that there is some stability in this genetics. Haven't flowered it yet though.
Like I said, just read Dinafem's description on the website. I think it is 100% true about my result which is something I find amazing. The harvest window they gave was pretty much right on the money. I think these people have really done their work, at least, with this strain. Well, I can't really say all this because I only flowered one seed of it. But to have such a result makes me really happy.
I don't write this review for dinafem or any other seed company... just for you, the reader, who wants to find something dank to grow
If you want a little more yield, go for another one. This is also a pretty slow vegging plant. The THC % must be really high. The first time I smoked it I started sweating. Ignore the flavors I report, it's either dank or not and this is Dank

It's flushing week. Last week I've stopped giving her nutes, and the plan is to chop her down by the end of this week.

The big day is here! 😎 Today, March 28th, 104 days (15 weeks) after germination, I have harvested my first indoor photoperiod plant. It has been an incredible challenge, especially managing it in the middle of a winter environment, but the results speak for themselves.
📏 Harvest Data (Wet Weight)
-Total Wet Weight: 56.5 grams (15.7g + 40.8g).
-Final Height: 40 cm of pure density.
-Status: Rock-hard buds and an impressive resin layer.
-Dry Estimate: I estimate that after water loss (60-70% less), the final dry weight will be between 14 and 17 grams, given how dense the buds are and the cold conditions we’ve faced.
🌡️ Process Summary
-Managing a grow with lows of 12°C for my first indoor photoperiod experience has been difficult. I am aware that a climate control system would have been ideal, but the budget is what it is 😆.
Despite the limitations, using lukewarm water for irrigation and controlling the lamp height were vital. This plant has been a great learning experience, and I am sure the next one will be much better, applying everything I’ve discovered during these 15 weeks.
Now, on to a slow and controlled dry so the flavor is as spectacular as its look!
I want to wrap up this diary by thanking everyone who has joined me during these 15 weeks. Your likes, and comments have been an extra motivation to pull this Critical through despite the cold challenges.
It has been an incredible learning journey, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome of my first indoor photoperiod plant. See you all very soon with the Cream Caramel and that Main-Lining I have planned!
Happy growing and happy smoking to everyone! 🌿💨

Last week it rained and it looks like it is going to rain again this week. Frostbanger didn't get any nutrients last week which is okay because it is time to flush. I am flushing earlier than I had planned but it is time to take Frostbanger down!!! It has also been very humid here, around 90% and I am worried about bud rot.
Frostbanger is definitely dense and resin covered, just like its description. It also has a very strong smell. I am sure the neighbors can smell it-LOL.
This strain has been a pretty easy strain to grow. The weather conditions have been my biggest challenge.

This was the girls last week! I decided to call them finished on day 63 the tricomes are almost all cloudy, with a small amount of amber. I’ve learned that they continue to degrade as you dry and cure your flower, so I’m trying something new for me, and pull them a little earlier than I usually would.
In addition, after watching a podcast (Dude Grows Show) if you don’t know, check it out… I decided to run the lights for 18 hours instead of 12/12 for the last 5 days before harvest. The idea behind this, is to stress the plant enough to increase its natural sunblock/protections, which would be terpenes and tricomes just before you harvest, while also possibly quickening the finishing time for your plant. The group was discussing the benefits of this (listed above) while some already had implemented these practices when finishing plants. The recommended time to run extra light time would be around the last 5-9 days of the plant, without having any nanners or weirdness happening with your plants.
Anyways, they finished amazing, sticky, stinky and heavy ❤️ the Terps are crazy on these strains….Harvest details to come. Thanks for stopping by 💚🇨🇦👊

The leaves continue to turn yellow from the bottom.
It seems that I started fertilizing too quickly and the tips of the leaves burned a little

We entered 5th week today. 👀
I'm really happy with everything so far.
Bare in mind we still have around 3weeks to go, so them buds hopefully will double or triple in size on those upcoming weeks🤞
But if not, i will be happy anyways because they are so frosty already 🤩
Smell in a room is also nice. Sweet, and really strong.
See you next week🙃

Hola a todos!😃
Espero que anden bien, les cuento que esta semana he regado con fertilizantes con top veg, 2ml x litro de agua, top bloom 1ml x litro de agua y lo combine con amazonia roots 1gr por litro de agua.
Los demás días he regado solo con agua, la planta se ha comportado bien al trasplante, de hecho ha crecido unos 13 centímetros en una semana.
He doblado algunas ramas hacia los laterales y la verdad que no he notado que se haya estrenado.
También realice una pequeña defoliacion y he quitado las ramas más bajas para hacer esquejes🤪🤭.

Flush is on! A gallon a day each of pH’ed tap water for the next week and a half to 2 weeks. Fall colors galore incoming! One is already going mad purple as I started it on the flush a bit earlier.

Chibans are pollinated as everything in the room was. I will still finish them off and hope for some passable bud. I may even end up with some Sherbert banana beans...🤞🤘

Did a little outside action this week as I had to clean out the tent and make some ventilation adjustments I’m 9 weeks in on these plants and it kinda has me wondering why I’m not seeing much more vertical growth I’ve decided to pull the light up a bit and decrease the intensity let ‘‘em work for it a little bit.They are healthy tho and as usual the vegetation never fails to impress happy growing yall

Siamo arrivati a toppare le piccole, aspetterò che si riprendono dal topping e defogliazione circa una settimana poi manderò in fioritura.

Eighth week of flowering, the buds are almost ripe, I'm starting to prepare the place where the plants will dry, I can't wait to smoke these fantastic genetics again.
