Royal Gorilla took 63 to harvest from 12/12 switch Very Sticky while trimming The buds I hung last night totalled 223 grams The trimmings totalled 35 grams I will update next week when things are dry and going into mason jars

All good apart from the summer heat, but nothing I can do about that, plus in seedling stage the young ladies can handle it really well so no issues! 👍🏾🌱💚

Only giving them water so far. The mimosa cuttings are taking being cloned really well.

✋Wk 7: Will the size difference begin to fall in line with the predictions, and rearranging the wind. 👉 This week is Day 48 thru Day 54 total. (Feb 16 thru 22). Today (day 54ttl) the 1 gallon plant is at day 21 flower and the 3 gallon is at day 9 flower. 👉 This week has shown some interesting things. The 1 gallon plant is still ahead in the physical timeline, and has also started to demonstrate how the smaller pot is limiting its size. The 1 gallon has been ahead of the 3 gallon plant in size and stature, until this week. The 1 gallon has stopped stretching and is beginning to develop its flowers. I was worried it would continue to get bigger and may become an issue vertically as well as horizontally. The 3 gallon plant has grown a few inches and isn’t really stretching up yet, but it is growing overall in size. It’s a big dome of leaves right now. Its main cola is same height as a couple of the secondary branches. I doubt the main cola will remain the same but this plant hasn’t been typical from its germination so only time will tell. 👉 The other interesting thing has actually been trending this way for a couple of weeks…the run-off for both plants has been lower than the inflow and no low EC fertigation has been needed. The 1 gallons roots are undoubtedly densely packed in the pot. It takes several minutes to apply the nutrient solution. The volume needed has also increased. The 3 gallon still readily accepts the solution, but it takes more every day and the run off takes longer to start running out of the bottom. The saturation level of both pots has increased, and the 3 gallon especially. The EC for both has stayed below the inflow EC. This is unusual because part of the volume of water in the pot when saturated isn’t absorbed by the plant, it evaporates on all sides of the pot and the top of the media. This would leave the dried nutrients wich would rinse off at each fertigation adding to the TDS. The reduction of EC in the run-off means the nutrients are being utilized by the plant. I have dropped the inflow EC of the 3 gallon a little because I was worried about burn. I have kept the EC of the 1 gallon plant at the low end of the recommended EC range of the General Hydroponics drain to waste nutrient schedule chart for the Flora series of nutrients. I use the entire line of these nutrients. For the one gallon I had been giving it only the “simple program”, and the 3 gallon the “expert” (entire line). This week when I noted that the stretch has pretty much ended for the 1 gallon, and decided that I will go ahead and give it the expert mixture as well but given at the low end of the EC range still. Ive included the Fertigation log for the week. It shows the tent temps, the outdoor temps and HVAC setting. Also, I note when a fresh batch is made and what week on the schedule it is. Each pot has the recorded time of fertigation, volume, pH, and EC of the solution given and the corresponding run-off. I mix the solutions at full strength and use a solution with just silica and Cali-magic to reduce the EC to the desired EC. I mix that in at fertigation time. I also adjust the pH if necessary at this time. 👉 The structure of the 1 gallon is very stout main trunk, and each branch is very sturdy. The bigger fan leaf production has given way to smaller leaves. The structure of the 3 gallon also has a very stout main trunk and each branch is very sturdy. The 3 gallon has some very large fan leaves and it has lots of vegetation. Its very dense and hard to peer inside. For both plants I have begun to selectively remove branches that would not be producing anything but larf. The 1 gallon only needed the lowest main branches trimmed. I also removed some of its smaller shaded secondary branches and leaves inside the canopy. The trimming on the 3 gallon is similar, however its much harder to get inside. I just do a little at a time at each fertigation. Im not sure if the first set of branches on the 3 gallon will be tall enough to keep but I want to wait till the plant starts stretching to see what they will do. Ive left as many leaves as possible in the 3 gallon…a lot of really nice fat food factories. This plant may go very large, or it may stay somewhat stunted as it did during the early veg phase. 👉 I positioned the plants I closer to the back wall. I bought a oscillating tower fan and was hoping it would be a good addition to the tent. Alas, it had too strong of a wind current (on the lowest speed) and the 1 gallon was showing signs of wind stress after 2 days. So I removed the fan and re-positioned the smaller fans I had clipped up top of the tent. Both fans are now hanging lower on adjustable ropes and point toward the plants. They are working well like this and the air flow is good. I may modify the oscillating fan and install a variable resistor to the fan motor to reduce the flow. I have added the branch support to the legs of the stand the 1 gallon is on. These posts will be used to support the weight of buds or position them as needed. I will add the support posts to the 3 gallon plant after it has gone thru its stretch, maybe another 2 weeks for that.

Final Week – Late Flower The final week was essentially a clean finish to the run. The buds swelled further, becoming dense and well structured. Despite the ongoing mildew issue, the situation remained controlled and never spiraled out of hand. Lowering nighttime humidity below 50 % clearly helped slow down further spread. The focus was on maintaining stable conditions and consistently removing affected leaves. Overall, the positives clearly outweigh the negatives: strong plants, solid bud development, and very relaxed handling thanks to Biotabs and the automatic irrigation system. Now it’s simply about finishing strong and harvesting.

beginning of the 6th week, I add pk 13/14. everything is going well😎. 12/07: too hot, installation of an air conditioner

Hi all, Welcome to my🍌💜👊 week update Thank you so much for all support on this bananas journey. Much appreciate all your likes, follows and comments. 🙏💚❤️💜 Week 14 Jan 15- Jan 21 Flushing and preparation for harvest 😁 on Jan 15 feed girls for the last time with nutrients. It was reduced dose by 60% 5ltr no runoff. Following morning topped up with 6ltr of ph down and only fish shit. Runoffs PH 6.2. Second watering Jan 18 6tr and 7ltr on Jan 21. It was last watering. Week went very well. No white pistils hairs on Athena for a good while and barely few left on Xena. Many buds have different shapes and colours but all of them are equally hard as rocks, sticky and smelling so deliciously. This week trichomes development was just like I wish for. Just milky and amber in play Status on Jan 22. Mostly of buds 20-50% amber. It's just perfect for my needs🤤 On Jan 21 lights were on for the last time and girls will be harvested after 48 or 72h of darkness. Stay tuned for the final week update! Peace and love brothers and sisters ✌️💚👨‍🌾 Links https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/banana-purple-punch-auto https://plagron.com https://www.biobizz.com/ https://fishheadfarms.com/

Substrate amendments & quantity per bag 22L 1. 15L Coco Substrate (CalMag Buffered) 2. Red Earth Wiggler - Wormcastings 65g 3. Lujae Dolomite Lime 15g 4. Cultera - Vermiculite 25g After removing the 10L bag, I use my spray bottle to moisten the sides of the coir slightly. I then sprinkle Mycorrhiza to assist in a speedily transplant recovery. I also sprinkled some at the bottom of the 22L bag as well Transplanting Done! 🤙t2: Note: The same method, amendments, quantity used to transplant (Jet Fuel) too. About 2 weeks after this one.

week 3 i defoliated and increase nutes to week 3 strength. Liking the growth I'm getting from these phenos especially #1. At the end of week 3 Pheno # 1 is deff growing the best but I will flower out other 2 as well. Stem rub giving same smell on all 3 phenos. I cant describe smell of it yet but it is different then anything else I have now or have run in the past.

What a great week! They stretched out quite a bit! That fat banana is kinda a baby! it will wilt its leaves if it is the slight bit dry. it will also wilt about 3 hours before bed time. i dont quite understand it. The BubbleGums have given me no trouble. pretty hardy!

Decidí no hacer ningún corte Tampoco ningun lst ni nada Solo dejarlas ser por esta vez...

Esta bonita cepa ha estirado mucho estos tres dias que lleva a 12/12 horas de luz. Mide unos 53 centimetros y esta ramificado muy bien para mi gusto.

Keep on moving. 420 forever and Jah God always with us protecting us. Hug. Tommy

Welcome to my Sour Strawberry Diary sponsored by Spider-Farmer & Barneysfarm. Days 15-21 Veg Days 8-9 11-12 Pheno 1 & 2 few days apart. Decided to top again, and again and again. Making a nice few tops. Been such a heavy sativa im not use to growing one. Kinda in new Territory. So many Shoots so close together. I'm gonna have to top them again at some stage. There's just too many and they're too short. They're the tops of what would of been great colas. But, I've a different agenda here. And I need more colas to fill my net. 6 sets from each plant won't cut it. Growth is good and steady this week. (Sadly, same can't be said for her in RT, they're pushing through) updates will come soon. Strong like Sativa Structure. Missing a bit of a stretch at the moment. Think I might throw her into a few days of 12-12 and then flip her back into veg to stretch her nodes to 50cm2 net. The legs of the frame go into the pot. So its moveable. Let's hope I do a decent job. The one that was started in the root riot cube, with the Broken stem. She is the biggest, by a ways I wonder if that's from an early break (HST) in her stem. Will for sure be testing this with clones. Happy with how these past weeks went. This is where the good times end. (For now) mag issues are looming. Shout out to the Bella from Spider-Farmer & the Rep from Barneysfarm. Much appreciated for the products. Thanks to all who viewed, liked &/R commented. Look forward to seen your diaries. Either way thanks for dropping by.

1 week into flowering you can already see the pistils shot.

Getting ready to take clones and flip them into flower in the next few weeks

Introducing some carbs this week (Bud candy & molasses) 🍬 some additional mycorrhizae (great white) with the Liquid Karma every water 🍵 will end the week with a final defoliation 🍅

Cannopy filling out nicely. Using the odd bud clip here and there, using the net as well to even out the spacing. Height growing quick these days! Top dress this week, Gaia Green AP/PB, mixed with compost and added some insect frass this time. Heavier on PB for 10g, heavier on AP for Hugel. Weekly silica and monster maxx as well, drip irrigation and weekly spray of LCPT. Smaller 10g is flowering, slow starting, not sure she's fully made up her mind, drying out quickly though! Barely made it 3 days, heat wave for a few days, will have to boost the irrigation maybe 30mi each morning through it.

Just watering growing

Mir gefällt es nicht, dass die Pflanze verhältnismäßig hell wird, obwohl das in anderen Berichten häufig ähnlich bei diesem Strain aussieht. Mal gucken, wie sich das entwickelt. Habe trotzdem einige Vorsichtsmaßnahmen getroffen. Gab ausnahmsweise mal etwas CalMag dazu und noch mal nen ordentlichen Komposttee. Kann es evtl auch an der neuen Lampe liegen? Die AC Infinity hat ja auch mehr Bumms - wobei ich das ehrlich gesagt nicht ganz glaube, da ich sie auf 80% und 40cm Abstand laufen lasse… Vermutlich dreh ich nur durch :-) Die Buda entwickeln sich soweit gut. Jeder Ast hat super eng anliegende Blüten - bin gespannt, wie sich das optisch entwickelt. Inzwischen wächst da nichts mehr wirklich. In der letzten Woche zogen fast nur die kleineren Triebe nach und bilden jetzt ein fast ebenes Blütendach - gefällt mir gut! Wie letzte Woche erwähnt, hätte der Stretch aber gerne größer ausfallen dürfen.
