Hi all 🧑‍🌾 Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update. Hope everyone keeping well and having a good week. Thank you so much for your support on this bananas journey 💜💚💜💚 I am so happy to see how girls are developing in recent days. It's seems that Athena finally stopped her stretch and hoping that Xena will follow her sister very soon. Buds are gaining weight and size rapidly. Lots of nice colours and tonnes of trichomes on those buds already. Week 10 Dec 18-24 Dec 18-19 Mainly observation. Xena is still stretching like crazy. both girls are developing beautifully. Dec 20 First watering for this week. 7.5 ltr beetwen both. Runoffs PH's Athena 6.2 Xena 6.3. Dec 21 Due to lack of light at lower parts of conopy decided for another selective defoliation, lowered a bit tallest branches with colas dangerously close to light by tieing them to netting. Couple cm will make a huge difference here. Could not clear well at the back wall of the cabinet due to limited access.I'm very happy with final result. Dec 22-23 Joyful observation of my 🍌💜👊girls development 🧑‍🌾 Dec 24 All is looking great. It's seems that stretch is finally stopped. Girls looking healthy and happy. Second watering for this week. 8 ltr beetwen both. Both runoffs PH 6.2. It's the end of this week. Happy Xmas everyone 🤶🎄❄️🎁☃️✌️💚🌲🎅🎄 Stay tuned for new week update ✨🍀✨✌️💚

Ok so i'm pretty sure i'm screwed......these plants are now going to be over the fence but it is what it is, had some help measuring the plants this time so the tape did fold and i know that it got to the base of the stalk as it's really hard to do by yourself with plants of this size: PP #1-74 inches #2-80.5 inches #3-82 inches OS #1-78 inches #2-75 inches #3-70 inches So i believe i'm running into a MG deficiency with these girls as well, i'll fill out the grow question for one lucky person to get some point for GOTM. Still waiting on my bag of gaia green 4-4-4, but i did give them some Basalt rock dust 1 cup and some Glacial rock dust 2 cups to try in help what i believe to be an MG deficiency. I didn't have enought to give them what i wanted to so i'll have to wait for that to come in as well or just pick up some rock dust on my way home from Halifax Seed. I under estimated fertilizers for this grow wasn't expecting them to get this big...... Woke up the other morning to a little bit of wind come from the west and the tops were doing some swaying so i had to run into town to the grow shop and pick up some trellis to secure the tops that arn't in the cage. I figured the best was to trellis them as i could only get two 5x30 nets what to just run one each over the tops and secure to the fence. I did work on cleaning some of the inside out but theres just so much it's hard to get everything done in two week with real life going on as well. So i've set up an automated curing system for when these ladies are done. I'll have an air pump hooked up to a timer, then the pump will run into a 12 valve manifold, there will be 12 bucket. each valve will have it's own bucket. each bucket has a one way check valve going into the bottom of the bucket into a perforated hose that will cure around the bottom of the bucket. so the fresh air will rise up thru the bucket. at the top of the bucket will be an outlet with a one way check valve. the buckets have Gama seal lids that screw on with gaskets so it gives you an air tight seal. So having the timer set to twice a day for the first two weeks then adjust to once a day everyday for a few more weeks everything should be on cruse control, no more burping jars if everything works like it's supposed to!

Initially ran this plant as a way to get dial in my tent and setup while coming to grasp with tent growing in general. Since its an autoflower the growing was easy. However this is a very commercial seed bank and the quality you get is in line with that. Now i'm moving, getting a larger setup, and going to run more genetics. Zamnesia will not be a part of that.

Lollipopped the monster crop clones in the tent; defoliated everything a bit. Everyone seems to be moving alone nicely. Everything is showing pistils except the two bagseeds in the middle of the tent. Smells great in the closet. Between the two tents I have a 2x7’ area with three Sunraise lights running. I’m hoping to have a better harvest than last time. Last grow I only used the 2x4 tent with three plants and two lights yielded about 2 ounces per plant. I nute burned the hell out of them last time and I’ve been feeding about 1/4 the amount I was last grow. These plants seem much healthier and are much larger than my last grow. I have also become more comfortable with defoliation than I was previously. This time I am focusing on larger, denser buds. The plant in the solo cup is a Pineapple Express clone. It has not rooted but the stalk has turned white and it hasn’t been needing much humidity anymore. It is almost rooted; I have been spraying it with colloidal silver to try and Hermie it. If I can get it to Hermie I can separate it before the pollen sacs burst and selectively breed branches on my other plants to make feminized seeds. **growdairies is messing up; I cannot change the temperatures on substrate, night air or day air. Average temp for all is about 75 degrees Fahrenheit.

Plants were watered on day 4 of week 4, as follows: Thin Mint Jr. (P1): 1 gallon water, pH: 6.2, Height: 5 1/4 in. Thin Mint Sr (P2): 1 gallon water, pH: 6.13, Height: 4 1/2 in. Lucy (P3): 1 gallon water, pH: 5.6 (slightly low), Height: 5 in. Herbert (P4): 1 gallon water, pH: 4.93 (LOW), Height: 4 3/4 in. ***All plants were watered with nutrient this week; Bergman's Plant Food Growtime Fertilizer (19% N, 5% P, 20% K - 2/3 tsp/gallon) ***Planning to add pH UP solution to Plants 3 & 4 (more notably P4) to increase their pH levels a bit as they are a little lower than ideal right now. Our pH goal is 5.8-6.5). ***Lights increased to 40% intensity on day 3 of this week and increased again to 40% on day 5 of this week. *Current AC Infinity tent settings: Daytime temp: 73-78 degrees F Nighttime temp: 67-70 degrees F Humidity range: 50-60% (ideal is 55% for daytime)

These gals are slowly getting those lower branches going, they are still tied down to let that light in. I’m not super happy with the speed of growth...or the soil, or the pots, lol. They need more space but the grow room got delayed. Day 26: I decided to cull #8 from the group. The mainlining is happening too slow and I snapped off one of the main branches. RIP. Might turn it into a cutting or keep growing it but it’s out of the main group for now Day 28: Moved to 3.5 gallon air pot with sunshine #4 mix, biochar, and HnG rhizoforce pellets

👋🏻☘️ Started low stress training this week a long with the first proper defoliation to provide more airflow and light coverage. Continuing to bend the main stems down everyday to help even out the canopy as much as I can before adding scrog net next week. Will switch to 12/12 soon. ✌️

So aufgehts mit Fettarschfrau. Gewählt Samen von Flo. Lasse nur eins von 3 erstmal keimen...also muss 100% Keimrate sitzen🤭...keine Selektion etc...und vor Allem ohne dieses Hopfenzeugs🤭 Kommen aber später sicher nicht in Living soil...obwohl ich Flo sympathisch finde, weiß ich mittlerweile, dass es einfach nur ein riesen Markt ist, mit dem man gut Geld verdienen kann. Mann muss lediglich den Gärtnern gut ins Gewissen reden und mit vielen Fachausdrucken wie "Bodennahrungsnetzwerk" etc. gut umgehen...aber es funktioniert. Wurde übrigens alles bei den Amerikanern abgekuckt...wie fast alles andere auch. Dort natürlich alles viel größer wie es z.B. Jeremy Silva macht (build a soil)...hab übrigens zwei seiner Rezepte ausprobiert...garnicht mal so schlecht aber trotzdem natürlich einfach nur Marketing damit die Kasse gut klingelt und die Gärtner sauberes Gewissen haben...einfach mal selber ausprobieren oder sich ein paar echte Wissenschaftler und Koryphäen anhören...wie den guten alten B.B...z.B. hier https://youtu.be/qtXa_dAWKXc?si=nXuThrh_BhyvUSHH Ab 6:14 eben dieses Thema...ansonsten happy growing😃 Kokos getränkt ec 0.7 (davon 60% dest. Wasser 40% Leitungswasser Ausgangs-ec 0.1) und mit Aptus: All-in-one 1 ml/l CalMag Boost 4 Tropfen /l Startbooster 4 Tropfen /l Regulator 3 Tropfen /l Gegossen wird mit einer noch leichteren Lösung...geblubbertes Leitungswasser EC 0.4 + 4 Tropfen/l Startbooster Also gleich der Keimling/Sämling wird beschossen🙆‍♂️...mal sehen...ist ein Experiment😉 Am Tag 3 die Lampe gewechselt...bin mal gespannt was die neue "CreScience FLUXshield Babo 450C (160W)" so kann☀️ Update!...der Lampenwechsel am Tag3 war schlechte Idee...veg mode von der babo450c ist schließlich auch völlig anderes Spektrum als bei der SF1000 Neustart läuft gut...2ter Samen von Flo ist auch super gekeimt...Bilder folgen bald Licht ca. 200 mikromol auf den Deckel...drunter weniger Versuch #2 läuft besser...coco zu scharf getränkt...sieht an der linken Blattspitze letztes Bild...insgesamt löuft die Sämlingsphase zu langsam ab...aber das lag wohl eher an mir

Light schedule 20 hours on 4 hours off and the same with ventilation. Humidity approx 50 percent, water intake raised up 125 ml per plant per day. Fertilization continues on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday with Biobizz family and Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday bat guano and Epsom salt. This week will change the old lamp and replace with Viparspectra 600W. Day 46: I am still waiting for the new lamp. I haven't updated 2 days. They are georgeus flowering nicely. Buds are getting thicker and the purple strains are getting pure Balckberry Kush and LSD-25. Day 47: I palced today the new Viperspectra 600W lamp. I have also changed the light schedule for 18/6.
