The plants are doing well. I water each plant daily with 1-2 liters of solution (reverse osmosis water + CalMag 1 ml/l + pH Dow 0.3 ml/l). I also added Simplex Coco A+B at half strength (1 ml/l) once. The leaves quickly turned yellow and dried out, and the tops turned pale. I mixed 3 g/l of fertilizer; the full 5 g/l needed to be mixed into the substrate to avoid deficiencies.

Day 9: they are all looking super healthy and ready to explode! I’ll just veg these fast. Let them grow a node or two more then top them all and wait some days then switch to 12/12. I’m having 9 plants in the same tent.

Really big stretch! Doubled in height in a little over a week. Pre flower sites all over as she is getting ready to do her thing. I may have finally duplicated a successful effort.

These little girls seem to be moving along as their mother plants did on day 7 in 4" pots of soil, the average clones is 3" to 6" tall, I will try to stretch these girls to 12-14" by next Sat to get ready to transplant to 3gal grow bags as the 4" pots should be root bound by then, will update on next transplant

Alright and welcome to week 4, day 22. As you can see something is wrong. I think it's some Mag that is missing so I added some MagO 10 and I hope the problems will go away. If you guys think it is something different, leave a comment and we can discuss this 😎 I raised the water to 1.2 liters a day. I also wondered how this could happen. Everything is okay at the measurements so how does this occur? Day 23: The problems are still there but it seems they grew a bit overnight. I added Calcium today because some of you guys tell me it's Calcium deficiency. Well let's check back tomorrow. And wish me good luck! 😁 Day 24: Alright, I suck. I measured the runoff from plant 1 and it was way too high. Just like me sometimes (I forgot to take a picture of plant 4 today, have no clue how that shit happened. Yes I can count to 4 👽). What you guys thinking about EC 3.25 ph 5.9 @ the runoff? I don't think that's good so I lowered the EC in the tank by putting in fresh water. How did it come this far? Well, I probably did not give enough water. Meaning it was enough for the plants, yes, but there was no or not enough runoff. So the salts (fertilizer) came to EC 3.25 in the substrate. I'm "flushing" now with EC 1.25 and will check back tomorrow how the runoff will be. When I measured the runoff from all 4 plants together EC was 2.1 - which is only a little too high, I am trying to reach 1.6 - 1.8 . Let's check back tomorrow. For forgetting the picture of plant 4 today, I made a video. Day 25: The flushing was good. The plants look healthier again and the runoff is only 1.7 now. EC in the water tank is 1.35, ph 5.5. Also I removed some of the downer leafes. And I created this SCRoG net. So I just have to give them more water each day. So much there's about 20% runoff but I don't think I can measure or calculate 20% runoff. So I'll do it by feeling. Seems to work for now. Day 26: Looks like the plants are okay again. I only checked the ph and EC which were good. Day 27: The plants grow against the net. Also there are some waterdrops on the leafes which means that there is not enough air rotating inside the box. Have to check the airflow tomorrow. Day 28: Last day of vegetation. Just ph'ed down a bit.

Frostbanger Plants 1-6 Week 8 May 18– 24 FLOWER 4 Nutrients : GH Micro 25 ml GH Gro 10 ml GH Bloom 30ml CalMag 30 ml Recharge 10ml Green sensation 16.5ml Power buds 7.5 ml 5/17 PH 6.3, PPM 1130, temp 71 1ltr each 5/18 PH 6.67, PPM 935, temp 68.5 1 ltr each 5/20 PH 6.67, PPM 1330, temp 68.5 2 ltr each 5/21 PH 6.66, PPM 984, temp 69 1 ltr each videos & pics 5/17 Defoliation of yellowing leaves, feed, pics As I mentioned last week, I must monitor and control the tent environment manually. For the past month, the humidifier has been an issue putting out way too much humidity; often leaving water in the bottom of the tent. In addition, the temperatures are also out of control. I added an AC last week to keep the temperature below 80. I finally determined the exhaust vent is also broken and has been for some time. AC Infinity does not extend the warranty to the replacement parts. I guess that makes sense since they would be in a state of perpetual free replacements. I bought a new one from Amazon that came with a new controller which is different from the controller 69 currently using. I decided that while it is very inconvenient and inefficient to monitor the tent through the day, I would rather finish this Frostbanger run without introducing a new unknown variable. I will continue using 3 circulating fans, the 4” exhaust vent from my 3x3. I have the AC pushing air in and the exhaust pulling air out. This creates a neutral pressure tent environment-neither positive nor negative. It looks like growth has stopped and plant height has been reached. Now is the time for buds to fatten and frost up. All 6 of them are short remaining less than 3 ft. They range from 15 to 31 inches. #4, 5 &6 are showing some fade, particularly #4. Upon opening the tent, a melon smell comes off the buds if I get close, and more stickiness was observed during the process of defoliation. They are living up to the new strain’s name. #5 is the frostiest followed by #2. Wow week 3 of flower and that much frost already. Before FastBuds announced the strain name and characteristics, I was disappointed that FBA2502 could be an indica sleepy strain but the universe provides what you need at the time. The new strain profile indicates a whopping 29%THC with mainly sativa uplifting, euphoric, social effects with sweet fruity flavors which I love and enjoy. In addition, I recently bought a dap press and this strain is frosty and resinous. She will be great to press for live rosin. FBA2502 is FROSTBANGER. Meet Frostbanger Auto, an autoflowering and Indica-leaning hybrid packing a staggeringly high THC content averaging 29%, making this one of the most potent strains on the market. It was created by Fast Buds through crossbreeding Gorilla Glue and Chemdawg, two equally iconic strains. 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. The flowering cycle is short, averaging only 50 days, and yields are usually around 300g/m². The Frostbanger Auto flavor and aroma are both mouthwatering with a delightful combination of sweet, fruity, and flowery notes. The high is mainly Sativa-driven with uplifting and happiness-inducing effects that lead to euphoria and a general sense of well-being. You might feel sociable and talkative, but too spacey to say something. Following this surge of energy comes a deepening sense of relaxation, leaving you sedated and completely at ease with the world. Due to its potency and these long-lasting effects, medical patients hail Frostbanger Auto for treating chronic pain, stress, and even depression. Measurements: #1 15” #2 20” #3 17” #4 30” #5 31” #6 24” Your likes and comments are appreciated. Thanks for stopping by. Growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Day 96, 15th of December 2020: Wao and wao... this is what I can say. A bit late I was on holiday I usually start the week with the first day but now with the last one. So let's start with the "black sheep" of this group as she is alone here RQS Wedding Gelato. Easy growing issue free little bushy lady. Absolutely great choice of grow. Pretty much ready for Christmas but she can be cut even now lol.... And now let's speak about the Original Sensible Seeds' girls... Well Black Ghost OG similarly to RQS Wedding Gelato is calm little bushy and issue free lady.... no problem all good ready for Christmas.... Runtz Gum the thick chick with heavy big buds and excellent appearance is really amazing. I placed a stick there and fixed her to look better... It was not necessarily but i have done it. She needs more time pretty much done ny Christmas or a bit after.... Gelato from Original Sensible Seeds is similar in terms of acting such as streching and all that ... The same situation applies not much to really say we wait ;) I am really happy to have these ladies.... Well, Do-Si-Dos OG is the craziest one ever... lol.... not only due her crazy kind of streching style but the trichome developement that comes along to the fan leaf "holder" stem is pretty crazy.... Those buds are like a diamonds sticky and she would be ready to harvest but need to wait because I need to go.... I really had to fix her by placing a stick there I broke one stem but fixed as it did not come off... so crazy especially now because of the weight of the buds... now she looks even more beautiful... I think she is the most challenging grow ever. Original Sensible Seeds genetics is unique really high quality just look at them. Royal Queen Seeds as well but this is my second grow from them my first was a Green Gelato which is the same calm littlw bushy plant. Amazing very good for newbies ;) I am going on holiday again and back on 28th of December so after harvest starts. Girls will be cut after. The 7th weeks starts with tomorrow 16th of December.... Only flushing and no more nutritient will be used. Soon full report comes. Lamp is the same 11 hours on and 13 off.... The last 4 days they will get 4 days darkness and only ventilation will be working no even more water ;)

Hola hola! Aquí ya se realizó el corte final a esta mini banana purple punch con mucho cariño. Sufrió mucho desde que nació, tardando en germinar mucho más que otras semillas anteriores y además mantuvo siempre un perfil de planta extremadamente pequeña, nunca antes había visto algo así 😝 Tuvo una estresante vida dentro del tent pero aún así ella decidió florar y luchar contra las adversidades de manera muy fluida. Huele delicioso, un aroma dulce como de banana madura y un poco tropical con algo de diésel o kush en el fondo. Sus tricomas se ven un poco deteriorados pero quería cosechar tarde para un efecto knockout ☠️ Gracias a todos por seguir y un gran saludo. Viejo roble del camino, tus hojas siempre se agitan algo Nena, nena, que bien te ves Cuando en tus ojos no importa si las horas Bajan, la noche es día sin sol Bajan, el día que nunca acabó Y además vos sos el sol Despacio también podés ser la luna

May 25: looking healthy and happy. Nice progress considering it’s another week until the end of May. May 26: raised soil level using Pro-Mix and compost. Got rained on a bit but moved beside house to avoid the heaviest rain which verged on being hail. May 27: topped in morning. First round of topping in what will be a 16 cola manifold. Looking good as we’re about two weeks ahead of schedule. May 31: been cool the last few days since the toppping. Watered this morning with Monster Maxx. Slow going since the topping but she’ll be fine. Note that for all my diaries, I do pH adjustment with apple cider vinegar and add a dab of Dr Bronner’s Peppermint soap as a surfactant. That lowers the surface tension of the water allowing it to penetrate the soil more evenly. Also I’m always warming the water to help keep the roots happy in the cool weather. #seedsman420growoff #seedsmanseeds

Week 24 October 10 - Daylight 11h : 8h20 / 19h20 Temperatures 14° C to 23/24°C - globally rainy weather during the end of September and beginning October. Rare sunny moment but cool temperatures: best conditions to develop mold or diseases. Even if the plants are in a protected from rain and ventilated area. It’s why I harvested 2 plants ( Break Pad Breath + Flash Back #2 ) before losing the yield destruct by botrytis. Royal Moby and GMO x Zombie Kush are still flowering. RM: interesting sativa flowering, productive and resilient. Lot of resinous flowers; maybe it will be some seeds inside appearing after an autopollination. No mold for the moment. Impressive refreshing Lemon smell. Ready in 10 days max. GMO x ZK: ending the flowering cycle in a good way: pretty dense flowers, covered by resin. Spicy and flowery aroma. I had to cut a little bud attack by botrytis. Ready soon. Last weeks just add pk13/14 + Bud XL and overdrive + enzymes Start flushing now.

The Apple Betty babies are doing great 😊 I’m very pleased with the results so far, I just wished I would have known they would have such a large stretch, they D almost doubled in size in 14 days. At day 8 I stopped tucking the branches and allowed them to grow up. In hindsight, I probably should have kept going for another couple of days. They continued to stretch rapidly all the way up to date 12 or so, much more than my other strain that I have going as well. At day 10 I cleaned up some of the small bud sites and leaves that were below the 1st trellis. These sites do not get enough light to make anything good, and take away energy from the main tops as they grow and compete. A quick snip here and there will really help the end result. At day 13 I decided to add a second trellis net to provide support to the tops that came up so fast. They seem to have stopped their main stretch faze, and are looking happy and healthy now. I’ve continued my water, water, feed schedule and have not seen any cause for concern. The girls are taking a little over a gallon of water every 72 hours at this point. Humidity is being controlled automatically with my in-line fan and humidifier. RH is set to 57% and temps hover between 77-80 degrees with lights on, and about 70-72 with light off thanks to my furnace being back on for the cooler temps. The 2x4 5 gallon girl is doing great as well. 😊During the stretch, she flourished just as the girls in my big tent did as well. She is going to have some great bud, the branch structure is nicely developed with tight node spacing and large tops. I’ve been plucking off all the lower growth, and tucking leaves as they block bud sites. I will be doing a defoliation next week. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦👊❤️

PH is going down down down, corrected it with PH up up up. I don't know why it dropped ~0.1/hr when EC stayed pretty much stable, roots look fine, no smells so... ??? Did defoliation as usual, the NL #1 + 2 need it every couple of days, the Ori is just fine, doesn't need anything. Also did LST and lollipoping. Smells get more intense

Wrapping up week 10 flower. Her buds are ripening up nicely. Looking really yummy overall. Subconsciously I have been worried she wasn't going to finish up before I go on my Disney trip! I was overfeeding & cooked a lot of the supporting leaves. Mostly on the main top but in a few other areas as well. So she had RO water only for 3 days this week. I also switched from feeding Big Bud coco to feeding Overdrive. She's responded well. You think i'd know by now that you can't rush the process!!! 🙃 Live & Learn
