Hi all🧑‍🌾 Welcome to my final 🍌💜👊 week update. First of all. I would like to thank you all for such an amazing support on this bananas journey. I am amazed of the amount of love received from community here. Thank you Grow Diaries and Fastbuds for opportuniy to share and grow this amazing genetics. Love you all❤️💜💚 Was looking for strong indica dominant strain and after reading and hearing so much about this one. Just couldn't resist to not give a go. Was a bit worried before planting seeds that my final yield outcome may not be satisactionary as only have 0.26msq and Fastbuds advertising this strain as 450-550g msq but thankfuly my result was way above this scale. My 2 beautiful ladies Athena - right corner lady. She was slighlthly more dominant over entire grow cycle. She got more space on scrog earlier and that's why she developed the most. Xena - left corner lady, I belive that she could outgrew her sister if she just have more space and another week of time. Did not expect her to turn so well on the end. Both girls were put in darkness for 48h before chop. Wet trimmed and hang for a week. Daily jars burbing for 10 days and every 2-4 days now. Weights Wet trimmed Athena 870g Xena 632g Total 1502g Dry trimmed Athena 172g Xena 147g Total dry 319g Bubble hash 6g (37g of trims) I am very happy with this result. In my opinion Banana Purple Punch Auto its a masterpiece. Thank you so much for all the support, likes, follows and comments 🙏❤️💜❤️ Peace and love brother and sisters ✌️💚🧑‍🌾 Smoke review coming in shortly Links https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/banana-purple-punch-auto https://plagron.com https://www.biobizz.com/ https://fishheadfarms.com/

Edit from second day of the June. 10am in the morning. 600W @ 30C @ 55% RH Yes, sir o7 #Lady BanaN = 95cm tall #Space Girl = 80cm tall Its between 15-18C outside for few days now. Lady BanaN starts "shinning" in the light with her precious trichomes, I have feeling that all that stress will coat the main cola with sugar :) Space Girl have that Jamiroquai vibes all the time, no worries at all, pretty forgiving plant (Royal Critical / 14% THC / Indica dominant hybrid) it was a freebie. I plant it only to have variety from Fat Bananas (22%THC/Indica dominant). I'm mainly looking for Rosin extraction so Trichome production is the most important for me. Don't care about the yield, this is why I filled the tent with biggest pots. Due to lack of place I can't stress these two plants just right before harvest (dark period etc). I was thinking about stressing whole tent with music. I have played Techno Rave already and they seems to like it... so... I don't think loud and aggressive music will stress them. Maybe sound of a city? Honking cars? Talking people? will stress her more? I'm gonna experiment. I just need to think of a way to make her thinking it's time to die and she needs to protect her self. I was thinking about temps and lights also, cuz she gonna coat her self with sugar if it's gonna be too hot/cold to protect/isolate herself from temperature changes. But how do I do that without fucking up? :) Anyway, plan for now is to let them create big buds and then I want to stress-the-f*ck-out-off-them. Maybe I'm gonna lie to them and I'm gonna switch lights? I'm just gonna put 7W led above them so they gonna think its for real lol... 3rd June @ 8am So normally I water these bitches in the morning so there is enough time to make the soil dry by night. Yesterday I did differently and I water them around 5-6pm. They seems to like it, idk. Too high to think about it. 27C @ 60% RH Tent is fully open. I'm sitting with plants today. I'm a plant today... 3rd June @ 5pm 30C @ 55% RH (closed tent) WE COOKIN' ! 4th June @ 10am 26C @ 60% RH (open tent) We still cookin' Things getting frosty!!! Rest of the plants show pistils coming out of calyx's. All of them. Non of them have any pollen sacks etc. So Lady BanaN turned into hermie at 34C (93,2F). From the other hand, they liked 32C temps. Today all of them get at least 1L of (cold) water. Some of them didn't care, one or two of them didn't like it at first but then they turns back to normal. #Space Girl = Same height = around 80cm #Lady BanaN = 98cm (3cm more then week ago 👍) 5th June @ 7am Fungus Gnats sleeping on my leaves, wtf is going on? Or was it dead? Space Girl's main cola is getting bigger then Lady BanaN's main cola. 😳 And Space G is younger by 5-6 days. Temps later. DAMN THAT FROST BUILDING UP EVERYWHERE! 28.5C @ 51% RH (morning) [bottom of the tent] 29C @ 52% RH (evening) [bottom of the tent] 30-32C(evening) in higher parts of the plants. Fan leafs and colas. (NOW I'm really glad I have this temp-pistol) 2C more and I'll have a problem. I don't like that VPD. I hope cold water in the morning will regulate that stuff. Just noticed yellow mushroom growing in west side, lol? 6th June @ morning Shroomy growing big and nice. I decide to leave it alone. I was growing mushrooms before so I know that mycelium under the ground is just in the price of a gold for these plants. It's just natural symbiosis. Somebody answered my question saying it's a damp soil not "humid nights" that cause this but... humid nights makes the soil rly damp. I hope that makes more sense. I moved hydrometer under the canopy of a plant with shroomy. 👉[600W @ 27C @ 61%]👈 with open tent (full front door / little bit of east side) and left the lights on for 24/0. Baby plants no water today. Only big girls drinking now. Oh, I forget that I re-arrange the pots. So Critical and Banan are at the same place but the baby plants around switch their places. The tall one from North-West was moved to South-West etc. In North(back) of the tent is warmer + stronger light. South have colder temps and light is not so intense. You can see Critical have curly leafs but Fat Banana that is taller have not. Temp check before night 👉[600W @ 29C @ 45%]👈 7th June. Morning routine. 👉[400W @ 26C @ 56%]👈 8th June. Late morning. 👉[600W @ 29C @ 49%]👈 I was 100% sure I'm on 400W now but I checked the knob and it was set at 600W? So... somewhere between today and few days ago I had to set it to "Super Lumens" that are above 600W. 660 I think to be precise so no big deal but I guess that's why Royal Critical got her leaves curly a little bit. L A D Y B A N A N F R O S T Y 👽 M E L I K E F R O S T Y 👽 If that's how you increase Frost production then Im gonna do the Palm Tech to all future plants xD

First girl fattening up nice. She just wants more. Second girl is on her way to be a beast. She’s twice the size of now more than the first. Had to bring her down a touch with some lst. Third (depressed) girl is still with us. Tried a few things with her, flushed her, water conditioned her. Gonna get her back on some food in the next few days and see how she does. Again, not expecting much from her but seeing how she pans out. She has taken me on an emotional rollercoaster 😭

I’m loving these yellow training clips I bought off Amazon. Super easy to attach and adjust. Seems to be less hard on the stems vs. the wire I’d been using. Starting to node out big time!

The heavy rain and winds are coming. And yes they have struck at my beautiful ladies. 2 trees were damaged. But with quick action and a nice dose of feedings. They do it just like before. The cellmax nutrition and Bionova. Do their job well. If you also grow on earth, I recommend it to you. Hold on for a few more weeks. I'm sorry if I make a mistake in the weeks. I'm doing my best to just make a nice update green greetings CaptenSmokey 😊👍

My nine Week 7 flowers are thriving under the new GrowPro Solutions under-canopy lights. The lights have really brought out some amazing colors in the buds. It's so cool to see how much they've changed in just a day! I'm excited to see how they develop even more in the coming weeks

03/01 - Day 57 All the girls have their pistils changing colors, buds growing by the day, (B) has has very sweet aromas coming out, & (C) is more earthy and peppery. Still losing some fan leaves here and there on (A) & (D) from the Cal/Mag & Phosphorus defiance but nothing like 2 weeks ago. 03/05 - Day 61 Enjoying the process and maintaining the environment. Buds on (B), (C), & (D) are starting to get heavy. Maybe some foxtails starting on (C)??
