10.08.2026 Almost there Hi Growmies, welcome back to week 9 of my Fast Buds Auto Grow. This grow is clearly heading towards the finish line. Weather and Conditions I’ve never had a grow where the weather has been this consistently hot. I actually think it’s been a little too hot, as days with 35°C or more seem to slow the growth down. Even in my tomato greenhouse, most of the plants are showing some heat damage, so a few degrees less wouldn’t hurt. But with the finish line getting closer, I’ll take dry and hot weather over rain any day. Maybe these conditions will even help me avoid any nasty mold problems during the final weeks. Growth All three ladies are slowly bulking up, although the progress isn't particularly dramatic anymore. The buds are getting really rock hard, while the smell seems to have reduced a little compared to the last couple of weeks. I guess the girls are now putting most of their remaining energy into finishing and ripening. Papaya Cookies She is just beautiful. The combination of purple buds and orange pistils is pure eye candy. She has become a real beauty and I absolutely love looking at her. I guess she'll be ready for harvest next week. Tangie She's the biggest girl in the garden. I expected her to take the longest because of her Sativa genetics, but this particular pheno seems to be a pretty fast one. The smell is still classic Tangie — that fresh orange aroma I already loved earlier in the grow. Apricot Apricot will definitely be the smallest yielder of the three. Towards the end, most of her bud sites have started to foxtail. I assume this is a reaction to the extreme heat, especially since she has absolutely no sunshade. But when it comes to smell and trichome production, she is absolutely crazy. She's still incredibly frosty and smells amazing. I think I'll cut her down next week as well. Feeding As I already teased last week, I've now switched completely to T.A. FinalPart for the final stage. The idea is to help the plants finish while using up the remaining nitrogen stored in their leaves. And you can definitely see that happening now — the fan leaves are fading rapidly. Pests Still nothing to complain about. The aphids and ants are still completely focused on the cucumbers, so I'll happily let them stay there. The grow gods are still on my side this year. Final Thoughts I checked the girls with my microscope and was surprised to already see around 10–20% amber trichomes. Papaya Cookies and Apricot could probably be ready next week. Tangie might need another week, but I'll make that decision when the time comes. For now, I'm just enjoying the final days of this grow. Alright my friends, that's it for this week. Catch ya next week! Smoking_Joe_Frazier

Day 49 - Had to put the 3 Girl Scout cookies on a 12/12 light cycle to get them to switch to flower for some reason, first time I have had that happen with autos but all the plants are doing good, 2 of my strawberry pies are showing a little calmag deficiency but overall they are doing great and getting extremely frosty! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!✌️🏼🙏🏼🌱

Week 16 (Harvest) 1-2 Drying day 1 Temperature: 24.5 to 19.5 degrees Humidity: 65% to 50% The girls are ready to be harvested! Before chopping them down, i took a lot of pictures. I was able to remove most of the soil from the Biscotti #2 to see the rootball. I hang the plants as a whole to have a slow dry. The exhaust fan is on setting 4. 2-2 Drying day 2 Temperature: 19.1 to 17.5 degrees Humidity: 62% to 57% I changed the exhaust fan to setting 2 because setting 4 was a bit high in my opinion. 3-2 Drying day 3 Temperature: 19.9 to 18 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% Today i checked up on the drying plants, and i see there are some buds touching other buds, so i chopped the plants in half. The buds are still to the main stem for a slow dry, but are hanging more spreaded out to prevent any budrot issues. I changed the exhaust fan to setting 1, as someone told me that it was enough air movement for drying. 4-2 Drying day 4 Temperature: 19.8 to 18.5 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% 5-2 Drying day 5 Temperature: 19.9 to 18.8 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% Today i checked on the drying plants and the buds are shrinking a bit, they are getting a little bit crispy on the outside aswell, I hope they wont dry as fast, and i aim for a 12/14 day dry. For the next grow i already germinated 2x Chemdog (GreenHouseSeeds) 2x Gorilla Kush (GanjaFarmerSeeds) and 1x Deep Candy CBD (GreenHouseSeeds) And I have some upgrades planned aswell! I bought a autopot kit with 4 15L pots, this way the plants will have water and air 24/7 whenever they need it. I have seen alot of great results using autopots so i am very exited to try it out! And I bought a small camera so i can shoot some weekly timelapses! Feel free to Follow me if you like to get notified for the upcoming diaries! Thanks for checking out this diary, peace! (More harvest updates coming in the next couple of days!) Huge thank you to Zamnesia for the seeds, and Plagron for the collection of nutrients, and the opportunity to participate in the POWERBUDS contest! It was a fun and learningful adventure!

Graduated, and am off from work for a few weeks, so went overboard on photos. Plant is doing well, leaves are starting to turn yellow (strain trait). Can't wait for the harvest and being able legally gift my xmas ornaments to my cousins during our "cousins walk" at our family xmas party.

Hi all, Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update. Thank you so much for your all support on this bananas journey 💜💚💜💚 Week 12 Jan 1 - Jan 7 I am so happy seeing how my girls are developing. All it's going great. 2 waterings of 8ltr on 03/01 no runoff and second on 06/01 9.5ltr! Runoffs PH at 6.2. Purchased larger dehumidifier and installed on 03/01 instantly humidity decreaseed from 55-59 to 50-55 on avg. and at night from 62-69 to 54-60. Light from 01/01 on max power output 110 watts. Nutes slightly adjusted. Buds on both girls gaining size, weight. Trichomes on Athena mostly milky and clear with only very few ambers. Xena mostly 50/50 clear and milky, They are smelling gorgeously, not sure if I should smoke or eat them first. Next week will still feed with nutes and keep an eye on trichomes development but it seems that girls are not in a hurry at all. That's okay me neither 😁 Stay tuned for next week entry very soon! 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/

Absolute Chaos Woche! Der Strech war sehr krass. Die Lampe hängt soweit oben wie möglich und ich musste anfangen die Pflanze zu knicken, damit sie mir nicht in die Lampe wächst.

Hello Diary, The first week of flowering is behind me and as you can see in the photos, the Medusas are developing very quickly. The flowers have formed and now the flowering begins. Trichomes appeared around the flowers on the leaves, which is a great sign for this stage of the plant. What you can see is that the plants differ slightly in structure, one is taller with fewer leaves and a more sprawling structure, while the other is more of a bush shape with lots of leaves. In the description of this strain, they should be equal in structure, which is not the case, at least for me. I removed the humidifier so that the humidity in the air dropped to about 50% and the temperature rose to about 24 degrees. Watering has become a little more frequent, which is to be expected given the size of the plants. Here's what it looked like last week. 18/02/2023 - Day 25. Watering. I prepared 5 liters of water, lowered the pH. to 6.0 and watered both plants with that amount. 21/02/2023 - Day 28. Photographing and height measurement. Medusa F1 #1 - 47 cm Medusa F1 #2 - 40 cm That's all for this week, see you soon and thank you all for your support.

tem dias melhores tem dias piores, estão um pouco sensíveis, talvez muita agua na rega (1l) vou reduzir a ver se melhora. Algumas estiraram ate os 55/60 outras ficaram pelos 25/30 mas estão abertas já e com varios buds ao sol! :)

7. Woche Ich habe bisschen Probleme übers Leitungswasser mit Mg bekommen und habe mit Biobizz Calmag und AN Mg-Xtra ausgeholfen die letzte Woche. Diese Woche hoffe ich, sie erholt sich weiter. Ich muss sie mal bisschen Entlauben Ende der Woche. Sonst gefällt sie mir wirklich gut, dass Licht läuft weiterhin auf 80 Watt bei 24/0 🙂🍇🍫

🏆 Grower’s Spec Sheet: "The Monster" Cultivar: [unknown] Harvest Date: March 6, 2026 Total Flower Time: 8 Weeks, 6 Days (62 Days) 📊 Technical Data System: VIVOSUN Wicking Reservoir (1.6 Gal) Medium: [Soil/Coco/Pro-Mix] Lighting: Full Spectrum LED Atmospheric Peak: Daytime 1.5 kPa VPD / 73.2°F Nighttime "Color Trigger": 1.3 kPa VPD / 67.6°F Final Flush Baseline: 234 PPM at pH 6.2 Finishing Technique: 48-hour Arctic Root Shock (35°F Ice Flush) 🌿 Organoleptic Profile (The Senses) Aroma: Deep "sweet-honey" notes with a fading chlorophyll background. High terpene retention due to sub-75°F daytime finish. Visuals: Heavy anthocyanin expression (Deep Purple/Violet) across 85% of fan leaves and calyxes. Resin: High-viscosity "glass-bead" trichomes; milky heads with approx. 10-15% amber transition for a balanced cerebral/body effect. 🖋️ Grower’s Notes "The Monster responded exceptionally well to a late-stage thermal drop. By maintaining a strict 1.3–1.5 kPa VPD throughout the final 14 days, we pushed resin production to its genetic limit. The final 48-hour ice flush was utilized to maximize the contrast between the dark purple leaf tissue and the heavy white frost for high-definition photography." 🏆 Final Harvest Summary: "The Monster" Total Grow Time: 14 Weeks Flowering Time: 8 Weeks, 4 Days Final Flush Peak: 826 PPM (Purge) / 683 PPM (Settled) Final Environment: 70.9°F / 52% RH (VPD 1.2 kPa) 📝 Grower’s Final Notes: "We officially crossed the finish line with 'The Monster.' This run was a masterclass in environmental manipulation. Using the VIVOSUN Smart Controller, I was able to taper the temperatures down to a chilly 70.9°F in the final 48 hours to trigger a massive anthocyanin surge, resulting in deep violet and plum-colored colas. The Arctic Flush: I performed a cold-shock flush using 44°F ice water. The plant responded immediately, purging stored minerals and causing the reservoir PPM to jump from 254 to a peak of 826. This 'internal detox' successfully removed the harshness, leaving behind the 'sweet' terpene profile confirmed in pre-harvest testing. Final Results: The buds are dense, heavily frosted with trichomes, and exhibit the classic 'magazine-look' structure. The trellis system was essential in supporting the weight of these purple colas. Total success. 🏆 Final Harvest Report: "The Monster" Genetics: [Insert Strain Name] Total Cycle: 14 Weeks Flowering Time: 8 Weeks, 6 Days (Final Chop: March 6th) Medium: Coco/Perlite in VIVOSUN Wicking Reservoir 📊 Final Environment & Technical Specs Final Temp (Blackout): 66.3°F (Triggered deep purple/black hues) Final Humidity: 55% RH Final VPD: 1.0 kPa Lighting: VIVOSUN LED (100% Intensity final week / 24h Final Blackout) Nutrient Management: VIVOSUN Wicking System ❄️ The "Arctic Flush" Results To ensure the cleanest possible flavor and a smooth white ash, I performed a strategic cold-shock flush: Pre-Flush Baseline: 254 PPM Ice Water Shock (44°F): Triggered a massive mineral purge. Peak Waste Discharge: 826 PPM (Confirmed successful salt removal) Final Stable PPM: 577 PPM (Perfect landing zone for harvest) 📝 Grower’s Notes: "The Monster exceeded all expectations. By utilizing the VIVOSUN Smart Controller, I was able to drop temperatures into the mid-60s during the final 48 hours, which caused the anthocyanins to explode. The canopy shifted from a forest green to a deep, royal violet. The Arctic Flush was a game-changer. Seeing the PPM jump from 254 to over 800 proved that the ice water shock physically forced the plant to dump stored minerals back into the reservoir. The result is a heavy, resin-coated flower that smells incredibly sweet and lacks any chemical 'harshness.' This was a smooth, high-performance run from start to finish." 👅 Flavor & Aroma Profile Primary Terpenes: [E.g., Sweet Berry, Fuel, Citrus] Bud Density: 10/10 (Rock hard, thanks to the trellis support) Bag Appeal: 10/10 (Deep purple with high-contrast white trichomes) Time,Internal Temp,Internal RH,VPD,Fan Setting,Notes 12:21 PM,62.6°F,55%,0.9 kPa,Level 2,Humidity dropping fast; surface moisture evaporating. 8:47 PM,61.9°F,57%,0.8 kPa,Level 1,PRO MOVE: Dropped fan to buffer against dry basement air. 11:15 PM,60.8°F,58%,0.8 kPa,Level 1,"Achievement: The ""58/58 Handshake"" (Tent RH matches Grove Bag target)." 📓 Grow Diary: The unknownDrying Phase Day 1: The Harvest & Hang Action: Whole-plant hang of the "unkown”. Initial Stats: High humidity in the tent due to the massive moisture content of the fresh colas. Strategy: Establishing the airflow and setting the VGrow to manage the initial moisture dump. Day 2: The "Danger Zone" Pivot Challenge: Humidity spiked to 67%—risking mold and "wet" odors. Correction: You successfully navigated the spike by adjusting settings, bringing the humidity back down into the safety zone (below 62%). This was the first sign of an "Advanced" grower at work. Day 3: Setting the Baseline Observation: Buds still felt damp/wet to the touch. The Goal: Aiming for a 10-day dry due to the extreme thickness of the colas. Stability: Environment stabilized at 62.6°F / 55% RH, establishing a solid foundation for the second half of the dry. Day 4: The "Precision Craft" Transition (Current) Tactical Change: Dropped Exhaust Fan to Level 1 to shield the tent from the dry basement air. Texture: Buds transitioned from "wet" to "less wet/tacky." Small sugar leaves started feeling crisp while the core remained soft. The Achievement: Hit the "58/58 Handshake" at 11:15 PM (60.8°F / 58% RH). Decision: Committed to Grove Bags for the cure and the Frenchy Cannoli "Warm Bottle Roll" for the kief processing. 📊 Summary Stats (Day 1 – Day 4) Coldest Temp: 60.8°F (Day 4) Peak Humidity: 67% (Day 2) Current VPD: 0.8 kPa (Perfectly steady for 11+ hours)
