Pre flowering defoliation 2-4note.

Number 7 is smelling great and has 1 more week of flush left before it is harvested. Starting to show signs on leaves as plant is using stored energy. Thanks again fast buds. Thank you grow diaries community for the likes,follows, and subscriptions on my YouTube. 🌱🤜🤛

Great news—my Banana Kush seed has popped and is standing tall! 🎉 Tiny cotyledons are already showing a healthy green, and I’m excited to watch this girl take off over the next few days. Here’s to a strong start! #BananaKush #Seedling #GrowDiaries **Day 5 – Seedling Update** Great news: all three Banana Kush seedlings are settling into veg! 🌱 The cotyledons look bright and healthy, and each plant has its first true leaf set. They did stretch a touch at the start, but the lowered light and steady airflow should help them thicken up fast. --- ### Environment * **Temp / RH:** 25 °C day – 21 °C night / **75 % RH** * **Light:** LED at 35 %, now **20 cm** above the canopy, 18/6 schedule * **Airflow:** Two fans have been running unfortunatley only since yesterday to keep fresh air moving and strengthen the stems * **Medium:** Light mix with extra perlite in 0.5 L peat pots on a seed-heat mat ### Watering & Feed * Still giving only **plain Gerolsteiner Naturell** (pH ≈ 6.2 out of the bottle) – no nutrients yet; runoff looks clean. ### Observations * Stems are a little lanky from the earlier light distance, but colour is good and the new growth looks happy. * Roots should start circling the peat pots soon; a gentle tug already shows light resistance. ### Next Moves 1. **Up-pot in 3–4 days** into 3 L Air-Pots and bury an extra couple of centimetres of stem to fix the stretch. 2. Keep RH around 70–75 % for another week, then start lowering to ~60 % as they bulk up. 3. Gradually ramp the light to 40–45 % once they’re settled in the new pots. So far, so sweet—here’s hoping for chunky Banana Kush colas down the road! 🍌✨

Week 6 flower : I stopped the pk half way through week 6 so it had a total of 10 days feed with pk13/14 I also cut out the silicone and calmag on the same day . I defoliated a little as there was a lot bud sites covered . I am going to start the flush in 3 days which will be . .6 1/2 weeks into flower , going to give them 2 weeks flush with plain water . Still have a bit of leaf curl from the light being so close I did move it but because the canopy is not so even it’s hard to get it right .

420Fastbuds FBT2302/Week10 What up what up grow fam. Week 10 update for these beautiful girls. Wow are they smelly delicious. As soon as you open the tent up a blast of fruity/berry smell just hits you. Super frosty on the purple one and flowers are nice and dense. Both are getting close to getting the chop as I'll start checking the trichs with the magnifier. All in all Happy Growing

I am at a loss with HSO blue fire. First of all the germination rate was poor and now my only blue fire plant has gone Herme. I removed her from the tent and put her in the corner of the room under a separate light which is going to cost me more money in the long run. I should probably just get rid of her but I don’t have the heart to. I’m not the only grower that has had this problem with blue fire. Very disappointed

Tropicanna Poison XL Auto- Outside W10F6 8/17-23 This past week has been rainy and overcast from a tropical storm with temperatures mostly in the upper 80s. We have Hurricane Erin approaching the Bahamas heading northeast with wind gusts of 30-40 MPH. While we won’t be directly hit by the storm, we will get the outer bands of heavy winds and rain. To protect my plants, I brought all the girls inside on Tuesday 19th in preps for the storm. I inspected each one for bugs, rot or anything unusual. She is free and clear of any rot or bugs 8/19 Tropicanna Poison XL auto is 53 days from germination. Sweet Seeds says 60-75 days to harvest so she needs about a week more. Next week with the hurricane approaching, we are expecting rain for most of the week. Given the pending weather conditions for the next couple of weeks, the remainder of the grow will be in the tent where I can control the environment. I also will be using the air conditioner to drop nighttime temperature and maybe bring out pink and red colors. The stems show pink so I’m hopeful. Thank you all for your continued support and encouragement. Your likes and comments motivate me to keep sharing my journey. Stay green, growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Trychomes on the sugarleafs are 50% brown, on the flower itself maybe 10% brown.

They’re getting juicy, just feed some compost tea made from Dr Earth Tomatoes Veg and herb fertilizer and some Molasses. Just seen a Nat so I don’t think I’ll be doing the tea again, I want to prevent bugs as much as I can. I’ll be putting up a sticky trap to catch it I only seen 1 but 1 is enough for me

These two chicks have blown up the buds are starting to get frosty and on one the dark purple is starting to show I’ve up”d my watering and feeding to every day and a half or two days I feed every watering and they love it no burns or deficiencies so far until next time happy growing

Made it to harvest w 2 so far! Oozecake is a couple extra days. Boy she tastes amazing! Will ice her tomorrow and put her in 48 hrs of dark before I harvest. What an experience it has been! Can’t wait to try after the cure.

Beautiful progress with this girl. Can't really tell from pics, but some of her fan leaves are turning a purple tint, like her sugar leaves. Been feeding max strength compost tea with every watering, and she really enjoys it so far. Also, a little update on the clones I plucked from her a few weeks back. 6 of them successfully rooted, and now I'm hardening them off in the veg tent. 1 is already progressing onto vegetative growth. So her legacy continues :) Update 01/27/22: Her lower leaves are beginning to yellow and i see a nice mauve color spreading onto the fan leaves. I don't believe the leaves yellowing are a result of a deficiency or anything bad. She drinks at a fast rate, prays upwards first thing in the morning, and continues to stack her buds at a solid pace. And shes getting plenty of phosphorous, potassium and a bit of nitrogen as well. Shes getting fed blackstrap molasses with every feeding, which has a lot of calcium and magnesium. So after considering all of that, I think she'll just chug right along. As it's more likely just how this strain is. I remember my first run having a rather light-toned leaf coloration. Anyways, im starting to get a slight whiff of that infamous "purps" smell when I open the tent. It'll be hard to keep my head out of the tent come week 5, because I remember this strain being such a beauty. And I think I'm doing a better job with this run than my first. So I'm super stoked for the weeks to come. Cheers everyone 👍🏾

Hi everyone, here's the update for this week.Please enjoy... ✌️🇲🇲

The soil base is 50/50 Fox Farm Happy Frog and Coast of Maine. I watered the lower portion of the new pot with 1.5 liters then added the plant and more soil. 12/25 1.5 ltr Aptus Regulator 1.5ml Calmag 2.5ml/g Rcharge 2.5ml/g 6.04ph, 463ppm, 62.6f 12/27 1.5 ltr each Aptus Regulator 1.5ml Aptus strtbooster 2.5ml Flora micro 3ml/g Flora grow 1ml/g Flower Time 7.5ml/g Plant Juice 2 TBSP/g 6.45ph, 831ppm, 62.2 The Strawberry’s received 1.5 liters 3 times this week. A big week for defoliation and lollipop. It is evident that topping an asymmetrical plant does create more tops, slightly uneven. The 6 Strawberry plants are huge for 7 weeks. Originally, I was planning to wait until January to transplant, however, the roots were showing out of the bottom of the pots, and every plant is over a foot tall and half are over 2 feet. I believe the CO2 Exhale bag makes a difference in the speed of growth and development. These are heavy feeders. All showed some nitrogen deficiency earlier on and I’ve increased feeding. I planned to use grow dots extended for photo period plants when I transplanted them to 5 gal. I asked Santa in early November, and he kept sending notice that the order had been delayed. So, I decided to use TPS1 for this grow. I flipped to 12/12 on 12/28 and will water only this week. I hope to reduce the stretch during the first 2 weeks of flower. I must admit; I took on more than I can handle. I started these in November expecting them to be much smaller at 6 weeks. But no, these gals have grown with vigor. I had these 6 huge plants and 4 autos in the 4X4 tent. They grew faster and bigger than the autoflowers am used to growing. Christmas week was hectic with 5 harvests, 6 transplants and defoliation. I had to have my husband assist in the transplant to hold the plant as I held the fabric pot open. A side note: I’m taking applications for Spring & Summer cabana boy positions when I go to the beach. Strawberry Cadillac has the big fans needed for the job. 12/28 Strawberry Cadillac #1 36” #2 26“ Strawberry Trop Cherry #1 26” #2 16” Straw-Lectric Lemonade #1 18.5” #2 18 Important dates 11/9 Germination 11/25 Transplant to 1.5 gal, 12/1 Topped, Pinned and removed 2 large center leaves 12/5 Repositioned pins and removed lowest fan leaves 12/16 Topped 4 tops on each plant except Cadillac1 (first topping) and put manuka honey on the cut. 12/24 Transplant to 5 gal 12/27 Defoliate all 12/28 Flip to 12/12 Stay green, growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Que pasa familia, vamos con la novena semana de floración de estas Gorilla Girl F1 de Sweetseeds. Vamos al lío, las plantas se trasplantaron a macetas de 7 litros. El ph se controla en 6.5, la temperatura la tenemos entre 24/21 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. El ciclo de crecimiento puse 12h de luz, el foco está al 50% de potencia. Me gustaría estar más encima este cultivo pero la salud me está impidiendo un poco este 100% con el proyecto. - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida Descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Beginning of week.. As I watered this morning (no nutes at 111 PPM), the runoff came out at 830 PPM.. so the plant may not be taking up as much nutes? Idk.. possibly.. but since I'm so close, I've decided to just cut the nutes in half while completely removing CalMag and Hydroguard.. they shouldn't be doing much at this point anyway.. temps were a little cooler the last couple weeks (not so much this week) so it's helping purples come out! Wish I could get it even cooler.. but the flush should help her reveal beauty!.. she's already so gorgeous, to me 😍 Mid week.. She is absolutely stunning! So the last time I fed, the runoff TDS was coming out less than it was going in.. 700 PPM, good deal.. but when I watered the next time, the runoff TDS came out 200 PPm more.. like 900 PPM.. so I watered the next day and it came out 800 PPM.. so today I watered with FloraKleen and it came ou 700 PPM.. the days I watered was only 80 - 100 PPM going in.. no reason for the runoff to have jumped up like that out of nowhere.. I haven't been rinsing off the saucer as I should have been (daily).. just pulling the runoff out as soon as I can.. maybe it is just built up on the saucer?? Idk.. I guess I should attempt to pull it out and rinse it at least once or twice a week.. other than that, she is still turning purple ALL OVER more and more each day! Beautiful smell.. sweet, citrus, slightly skunky.. not overwhelmingly skunky.. but she isn't too far off.. so, I was thinking I will just keep watering till harvest.. not flushing the medium in one watering.. just normal amount of watering with a normal amount of runoff and she can use up what's left in the medium for this week, then the 2 week flush (still just watering normal amounts daily) will begin.. not this week even tho I'm not giving any nutes, due to a salt build-up going on somewhere in the rootzone.. but we shall see! End of week.. Wow she is getting close! So dank! So fruity! Definitely got the skunky phenotype but not lacking on the berries, whatsoever. Seeing many cloudy trichomes.. still a few clear but the way she is maturing, I believe she will be ready in just another 1 week, 2 if I'm feeling patient (probably not). This week was literally nothing but water. Wait, I did do one dose of FloaKleen due to the salt build-up about mid week.. never used anything else this entire week.. so this week was just a slow flush.. will have an update on the runoff tomo (beginning of next week) with more pics! On to the next...

Esta variedad me encanta, huelen genial y sus cogollos son super densos y llenos de resina siempre. Poca tolerancia a los excesos y es muy fácil de estresar. A pesar de todo sigue siendo una de mis variedades favoritas ya que su aroma old school con toques ácidos me fascina!. Actualizaré luego del secado y después notas de humo. Saludos!

4/22/25: last flush 2 tsp of sledgehammer with 1 gallon of water used 2 gallons between all three plants…more cool colors coming in with the fade 4/24/25: fed with recommended dosage for week 11 on my schedule card (day 31 of flower) 4/27/25: watered with plain ph water at 6.8

Welcome, If you are already here and reading this, you do it at your own risk !! 😃😇😎 Another week of flowering, the girl smells so intensely that the carbon filter does not cope with effective filtration. There is a real orange scent in the tent, a blend of fresh oranges and skunk scents. The buds take on size, the resin production is amazing and creates beautiful sparkling crystals on them. There are still 2/3 weeks to go, but these are the most exciting ones. In this week I added cal-mag to fertilizers, it is a preventive measure because I increased the amount of PK 13-14, so cal-mag supplementation will not harm the plant at this stage of flowering. Update: Day 87 I lowered the height of the lamp to 17 cm, I just need to put on my helmet, fasten seat belts and hold tightly to my chair :P Update: Day 88 I had to use wire-mode because the side branches were starting to bend more and more under their weight. It makes me very happy because the harvest will be in 2/3 weeks 🙏 I wish you all a fantastic evening, You Lovely Girls Growers 💪💪💪
