WEEK 7 - March 14 - 20 I now have a good light meter so I rearranged the parts provide light efficiency trying to get close to PPFD for the age of each plant. ALL HAVE HAD CALCIUM MAG DEFICIENTCIES. I NEED TO ADD CALMAG TO MY RO WATER AND KEEP ADDING MORE THROUGHOUT THE GROW.

this plant has a tendancy to throw out lime green leaves which throws you off a bit.. its quite a sensitive plant to ph im thinking. make sure you get the soil right. given the sheer density of buds it wants to grow on the colas i would suggest that its best to use a big light on this plant and if you are going to scrog properly space the budsites otherwise it just forms one big clump of buds in small plants.. hard to get light to everywhere.. genetics wise though damn! very quick vigorous growth, chunky looking white pistils, and looooooots of leaf production. thanks california and fastbuds

Hello my companions. I have been very busy with work lately and have spent very little time on my cultivation diaries. Soon I will be completely free, so I dedicate every minute to my plants and make a big tent. My Neville is 15 weeks old. It's the longest auto-blooming plant I've ever grown. I decided to give him 16 weeks to live and then harvest. I also started to prepare new plants for new diaries, but due to lack of time they were standing on the window without intense light for more than 3 days. Now I'm still germinating 2 plants to start a new diary of 8 plants. In General, I have very big plans and ambitions, and I hope that everything will be fine. I can't wait to finish the main work to fully devote myself to the plant.

Hello, long time, no grow. I’m trilled to start on a new grow project, i’m away from growing a long time, but my love for ot was always present, i miss it a lot so i have got a few strains from Fastbuds to test and come back with a minimal setup. I have got the Festberry, Bluedream, and the 1:20 cbd, they have sent in the Banana Purple punch Ok, so what is a minimal setup? For this grow i have choose to grow in my balcony, it is fairly big and i gave good sunlight, we are in summer now, so temps are high, swinging a lot. It is raining often as well so I did not need to water much. For the nutrients i will go organic i think, in my substrate i have about 30% warm castings, so i’m good for till mid grow length +-, i might add a bit of nutrients in 30 days mark. The objective of this experiment is to use as little as possible, 360 degrees. For the germination process i have used a mixed process method, that i have learned from Fastbuds and i have loved it, 24h in a glass of filtered water, paper towel for about 24h -48h and then the Floraflex gremination pellets, i have tested on the jiffy and worked fine as well. Cool about this method, if you are more on the anxious side or like to control more the process this is the way, you can follow the hole process and see the development in parts. I will add images later on, for this breakdown. Well that is it, lets hope for a cool, safe journey for this girls.

June 21st update. 28 days since flip. Plant is growing phenomenal. Was able to crank the lights up to 80% for the first time in this grow without her throwing a fit. All of the banana peels I’ve fed her the last few weeks have disappeared and have been feeding my soil mites and my worms. I have not had any bad pests since I started using these predator mites I love it. I can’t even begin to describe the smell of this thing. It’s like a raspberry tart mixed with just a little hint of gas. I’m so excited to give this a try when the time comes Noticing Trichomes going all the way down some of the fan leaves so that is always cool to see. Also I noticed this is common with living soil but I’m done bothering trying to defoliate. I will do one more in two weeks at day 42. But anything I remove at this point is just going to come right back. As always nothing but water. Will give her some tea tmmr like every Sunday with some big 6, worm castings, molasses, and some cow cal 24.

The plants structure has become more sturdy and have seen development of more side branches developing I have topped both side branches at the 2nd node as didn’t want to top main bud site and have been doing light defoliation of the bigger fan leaves hoping to see more development and have seen a development in the lower 2 sets of side branches and have seen more development in the top section of the plant too and decided to top the main cola bit turned out fiming instead for the last day of week 4 and am letting her recov

Hola!! Por aqui en el día 36 de flora. Ya se esta notando bastante el engorde en las flores y la resina que están generando es hermosa. El VPD me esta acompañando muy bien y por suerte el pequeño aire de ventana que tengo funciona perfecto :P . Ya se empieza a sentir ese hermoso olorcito a las mañanas que te motiva a cuidarlas mas. El ultimo riego fue con 891 ppm -1.7 EC, en el cual ya disminuí la dosis de la base Micro y el silicio Rhino a 1ml por litro, pero comencé a sumar el Overdrive en 1 ml por litro. Seguro en el próximo riego sigo con la misma EC y en la siguiente (6) aumentamos un poquito para después disminuir (7) Les comparto un video, espero que les guste y esta en buena calidad. Saludos che!! Aguante el cannabis.

The past few days have been a bit of a rollercoaster. First we got hit with some insane storms that cranked the humidity way up 🌧️💨. Just when things started to calm down, a brutal heatwave rolled in, hitting 91°F (33°C) 🔥. The plant definitely had to dig deep to get through that combo. But hey, she took it like a champ 💪 and powered through this unholy trinity of stress: repotting, extreme humidity, and blazing heat. Growth is still nice and compact 🌿 with tight internodal spacing. No signs of deficiencies on the leaves either. Everything’s looking green and happy ✅. This week I fed her using 75% of the BioBizz feeding schedule . Since my tap water has a pretty wild imbalance between calcium and magnesium, I added about 10% distilled water and gave her a tiny boost with some MagMono. Watered about one-third of the pot’s volume, roughly 1 liter, with a bit of runoff 💧. pH was dialed in to 6.4. Depending on how she develops, a second repot might be on the table next week

Hi all 🧑‍🌾 Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update. Hope everyone keeping well and having a great week😁 Thank you so much for so much support on this bananas ride 🙏💜💚💜💚 Everything still going pretty well. Girls are developing and stretching like crazy. Athena currently Dec 14 90cm and main stem of Xena is not far of this height either. Unfortunately noticed first signs of calcium deficiency(my opinion) on Athena. Thankfully started feeding both girls with calmag weeks back but the dosage wasn't not enough for Athena. Started small treatment very next day on Dec 11 (see description below) I belive got my baby back on right track. Week 9 Dec 11-17 Dec 11 Watering was planned for Tuesday but due to calcium deficiency decided for a little treatment. Watered both girls with mixture of reduced content of growth nutes by 50% calmag at 1.2 ml per ltr. Reduced solution PH to 6.2 as apperently it's ideal for calcium consumption. Over period 4h I have watered Athena with 5ltr with couple runoffs. Xena 3ltr. Total of 7-10 leaves affected mainly at top colas close to the light. Dec 12-13 Purely observation and all looking well. Of course all affected leaves will progres of showing signs but good news is that growth and development booming and don't see any new leaves with symptoms. Very nice trichomes development in recent days and more and more colours. Dec 14 Second watering for this week 6.5l Increased calmag to 1.4ml per ltr and if still things will be looking well reduce to 1 or 1.2 on next feeding. Dec 15 Very nice respond on yesterday feeding. They definitely fatten over night and getting more and more frosty. Will need to remove some foliage soon as getting extremely bushy again. Dec 17 Xenas main stem top cola almost touched the light today. Tied her to left side of the cabinet, applied selective defoliation on both girls, tied few branches to netting and on the end of this busy day a third watering for this week. 7 ltrs beetwen both. Runoffs Xena PH6.4 Athena 6.3. Very nice week have to say. I belive that calcium deficiency on Athena is no longer a case here and both girls developing very nicely. Both are still stretching, buds are gaining in size and both girls started exploding with trichomes, Thank you all again for such amazing support 🙏peace and love brothers and sisters ✌️💚💜💚💜💚 Stay tuned for new week update 😉🧑‍🌾✌️💚

This is the week 2! Well, the plant looks really healthy, and she kept growing up, straight to the light! Good to see that even after the strange beginning, with the stem crooked, she recover her path! This week, I'm also planning to start feeding them with some NPK. Just need to read a little bit more about it and buy nutrients. Probably I'll try Canna stuff. Anyone know if it's good?

7/6: Heavy thunderstorms last night and half the day today, so they won't be ready to eat again for a few days. I went out to the site about an hour after it quit raining today and saw HUNDREDS of tiny little green grasshoppers feasting on my girls!!! I immediately sprayed them all down with pyrethrins, and did it again right before dark. I've got the fan blowing across the pots to try to dry them out faster. I started using TPS One (one part nute solution) the other day, and the plants seem to love it. Really growing well, but I'm glad I amended their soil with some happy frog fruit and flower granular fertilizer this time. They get fed whether it's too wet or not. 7/7: More grasshoppers this morning..I sprayed with pyrethrins. Very cloudy day...glad I've got 470w of supplemental light above them all day/every day (and another 200w in reserve)😎

After vegging the plants for a few weeks I transplanted them to the flowering tent. They will stay in veg a maximum of 1 more week and then I will switch them in to flower. I also added worms to the soil to keep it nice and airy and have a as natural grow as possible.

Frostbanger Plants 1-6 Week 12 June 8-14 FLOWER 7 Sadly, my journey with Frostbanger is almost over. This grow started as an unnamed FBA2502 tester strain completely unknown regarding growth habits, size, flavor profile or smoke effect. I used LST on two plants: #1 because she was leaning over so I decided to pin her down immediately. I decided to LST Plant #3 when I saw her nodes were short and stems were tight. To quote Fastbuds “Growers must know that these difficult-to-grow plants will pose specific challenges in terms of environmental control and nutrition” , making them best suited for cultivators with some experience under their belt. I mention this because 2 plants #4 & #5 always looked lighter than their counterparts. Having overfed in the past grows, I did not want to repeat the same mistake, especially when the other plants were lush and green and did not look deficient. I thought it was genetics, but I found out that these two plants probably had nutrient lockout and would have benefitted from a good flush. Overall, I didn’t make mistakes with overfeeding or over trimming. I had to manually control the environment since the ventilation went out. I did pretty good at maintaining a functional environment. Plants #2 & #5 developed pretty reds in their upper buds and leaves probably because of the air conditioner. The A/C brought the night temperatures to 65-68. This week I am flushing with an anticipated harvest this weekend. I did the last plant pictures and videos and trichome shots on each plant. I did preliminary defoliation removing the remaining fan leaves. For most of the sugar leaves I trimmed off the ends leaving the base with all the frost. These are going into the trim bag to be washed into bubble hash. I plan on pressing #5 because she is the frostiest. 6/9 PH 6.46 PPM 239, temp 68 2 ltr each 6/10 PH 6.6, PPM 230, temp 68 2ltr each 6/12 PH 6.4, PPM 242, temp 68.5 2ltr Thank you for sharing this journey with me and as aways, thanks for visiting, for the likes and most of all growers’ love and support. Stay green, growers love 💚🌿my friends. 💫Natrona💫
