This week the Bruce Banner autos really started to show what they’re made of. All three phenos are moving deeper into mid–late flower now, and the differences between them are getting more obvious. Bruce Banner #2 Still the most advanced girl in the tent. She’s building the thickest buds out of the three, stacking really well and showing the strongest early frost ❄️ No issues at all, super stable and consistent. Bruce Banner #3 This one really took off this week. She made a huge jump in growth and the buds are getting heavy enough that one of the branches is starting to lean a little 🍃🔥 The smell coming from her is amazing: sweet, citrusy and a bit chemical, very “Banner-like”. Bruce Banner #1 She’s finally stabilizing again after her earlier issues. Her leaves turned yellowish/red due to a previous deficiency, but honestly it gives her a cool, colorful look now. I gave her extra nitrogen (CalMag/N) + did a light flush, and she seems to be responding well. She’s back to focusing on bud development. All three plants got a quick follow-up defoliation just removing some missed fan leaves to open the canopy more and improve airflow 🍃💨. Watering: #1 → RO + CalMag + extra N + one flush #2 + #3 → RO + CalMag only Environment: Temp: ~24–25°C RH: ~55% PPFD: ~1000–1200 under the SE5000 Smell getting stronger every day: sweet lemon + chem 🍋⚗️ Overall, a solid week with good bud swelling, increasing frost, stronger terp profile, and the first signs of buds getting heavy enough to need support soon. These Banner girls are definitely heading toward late flower now 🌸❄️💪

😎Week 3 8/2- Here we go into week three and I'm looking to see some explosive growth happening in the tent soon!😃 The girls are all running 2 1/2" to 4" in height with the Seedsman Gelato OG's and FastBuds Purple Lemonade currently kicking all the others butts!💪 Gave a good watering this morning 2hrs after lights on with non-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.4. I plan on maintaining that watering schedule from here on out. I refilled the humidifier with non-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5. Love the new setup with the two HLG quantum boards, 4 plants per light, and currently running at 400w per light. I'm looking forward to some record yields with this new setup using these 650R's! Temp's/RH/VPD are where they need to be at this point with daytime temp's maxing @ 83 Deg F/ nighttime @ 68 Deg F, RH @ 55%, VPD @ 9.0😀 8/3- Started compost tea last night, ingredients were; 5g de-clorinated 7.0ph water & 5tbsp unsulfured molasses, 4 cups worm castings, 1 cup alfalfa meal, 1 cup kelp meal, 2tbsp bat guano, 1 scoop Great White mycorrhiza and 3tbsp Neptunes Harvest seaweed extract which were added after the air was turned on and the 'bag' was in the bucket. I fimmed the FastBuds Purple Lemonade #2 and Seedsman Gelato OG #1, LST'd the FastBuds Crystal Meth #1 & #2, and the Seedsman Zkittles #1. Whilst doing all that I noticed my old friends the fungus gnats so I immediately placed sticky traps in all pots....little bastards! I went online and ordered Nematoads who will have a field day with the gnats! The girls all got watered in from the top and bottom with de-chlorinated straight water ph'd to 6.6 @ 76deg 225ppm, lights still @ 36" above the soil and running @ 400w each.😎 8/4- Gave the girls compost tea for breakfast. The tea had brewed for 38hrs., had 854ppm and ph'd @ 7.1...PERFECT! I split 4g of the tea between the eight ladies @ 1/2 gallon each. I also topped the FastBuds Crystal Meth #2 and Seedsman Gelato OG #2 and checked and adjusted LST on all. Temp's, RH, and VPD all on point with the girls are showing it! 8/5- Soil felt moist so skipping water today and will feed early AM. All the ladies have taken on a deeper shade of green and are really starting to take off since receiving the compost tea yesterday and they'll be going crazy by the end of this week going into week four. The FastBuds Crystal Meth #1 & #2 are both showing early flowering signs already and are starting to get some purple coloration in new growth which looks natural, not a deficiency. I topped the FastBuds Purple Lemonade #1 and Seedsman Zkittles #1 and checked/adjusted LST on all. 8/6- Gave a good watering this morning with 4g of de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.8, went through, and tucked leaves on all the girls to keep exposing lower bud sites to the light so that we have a nice even canopy for flower! All the girls have either been topped, fimmed or LST'd at this point and all I'll be doing from here on out is tucking leaves and possibly some very minor defoliation if needed, 8/7- All the girls look very happy this morning and are starting to get ready for that stretch at the beginning of flower. The FastBuds Crystal Meth's are the shortest, along with the Seedsman Zkittles #1 and the CM's are already showing pistils but I'm not declaring that they're in 'flower' quite yet. 8/8- Gave all the ladies a good water in this morning with .5g each of de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.9 @ 76deg. Went over all the girls and tucked shade leaves to expose bud sites, removed a couple of the ones that couldn't be tucked, and were blocking numerous bud sites. I also continued with LST on all bending branches outward to expose them to more of that HLG 650R goodness!

Vorblüten. Insgesamt wirken sie gesund, mit kräftig grünen Blättern und ohne Anzeichen von Mangel oder Stress. Die Beleuchtung läuft nun im 12/12-Zyklus. Der Abstand zur Lampe wird regelmäßig kontrolliert und angepasst, um Verbrennungen zu vermeiden. Die Temperaturen liegen tagsüber bei etwa 26 - 28 Grad, nachts bei 18–20 Grad. Die Luftfeuchtigkeit pendelt sich bei etwa 45 bis 50 Prozent ein. Die Pflanzen werden alle zwei bis drei Tage nach Bedarf gegossen. Diese Woche gab es die erste Gabe Blütedünger mit reduziertem Stickstoffanteil und mehr Phosphor und Kalium. EC- und pH-Werte liegen im optimalen Bereich. Ein Schädlingscheck verlief ohne Befund. Alles läuft reibungslos.

Venga familia que ya viene la cosecha de estas Pink Runtz de RoyalQueenSeeds , que ganas que tenia ya de darles machetazo. No veas que pinta que tienen estas plantas. Las flores aparte se ven bien resinosas, y con unos tonos muy llamativos. a sido una genética con la que disfruté mucho cultivarla, es algo complicada cultivarla pero merece la pena si eres cultivador con experiencia no te será problema cosechar. Hasta aquí es todo , espero que lo disfrutéis, buenos humos 💨💨.

I cannot wait for the harvest to begin… dam… this plant is doing the thing that make the pots to be done[South African Phrase], she has shot up, during my absence it’s like it was getting watered with nutrients and water mixture, and all she was getting was water. next week hopefully I’ll find the measuring tape and measure the height of this beautiful plant, my eyes cannot believe my labour, it’s fruits are becoming unbelievable, I hope that the bud is going to be big and juicy, I want to nothing but to smoke the best.

Semana 15: Ella ha rebotado al mejorar el tiempo, pero como no va a dar mucho más de si he decidido quitarla. Tiene un agradable aroma cítrico acompañado de toques dulces. Ha salido un fenotrigo, poca hierba pero de calidad, seguramente con mejor clima hubiera sido diferente

Without a doubt, this variety is very resistant and has withstood well the stress to which we have subjected it, such as abrupt changes in pH, pruning and training.We can only hope that the flowering is much better than I expect so we can preserve the genetics in the collection

Day 8 Flower Hi growers, the end of week one has arrived. The plants seem to be happy. They’re starting to shoot up, new growth has that light green color, old growth is still dark green. I fed with Remo transition feed and and added green planet rezin. I think I may have been under watering as I realized there’s way more than 20% perlite…maybe closer to 45%. I’m going to start watering every 2 days, more coco style rather than soil with a dry back like I normally do. I think that could be the reason for the slower growth in veg regardless of light height and intensity with optimum environment and vpd. I was going to weave the new growth into the open squares, but historically it has caused those tops to be shorter at the end. So if they grow tall, I’ll add another level of trellis net and fill the squares of the upper net. Until then I’m just tucking the leaves on this very leafy plant. Heavy Defo will be on day 14. She has got a stank to her already. When watered or manipulated she has this skunky sour smell that I’m already intrigued by. Still have 2 months and 1 month of cure to wait ugh…..patience 👎🏻 I am having a bit of difficulty dialing in the Vipar Spectra XS2000. It seems very powerful for my setup especially in veg, I’ll try 50% in veg next time. You can see how stacked the buds are in the pics. I’ve raised it up 6” from the top of the tent to hopefully get some stretch. It’s heat output is good at keeping my tent at 77-81 at 100%. I am very interested to see how it grows the FastBuds autos once the SLH is done. That tent will have the XS2000, FastBuds Autos grown with Gaia Green Organics. I’m thinking that will be a solid hand. 🤞 Happy Growing 🌱 #Viparspectra #XS2000

Amber trichs are just starting to show up and for my preference that's my Q... Put em in the dark for couple days and flip em upside down ;P really excited... Took a little sample off each one to check for seeds and problems ect. And u know I couldn't go without sparking up... Lemme just say... Every cookies strain except the fried banana tastes amazing right off the bush... (That's not to say fried banana isn't good either just had problems and it hermied and freaking got my orange cake along with it ... Haven't found anything on the big Z or spilt paint but u can't about bet ur bottom it happened to them too... So that didn't thrill me... But for the most part these cookies have been really good to me... Big Z smells like absolute zkittles and u can really smell the runtz too! All followed by a sweet earth smell that just lingers for ever! It's great! All n all pretty stoked! I'll get a total of the 3 plants... Fried banana is going to hash and I'll press it to some oil ...
