Again I’ll start by saying.... I DID NOT use bud ignitor and bud blood in the same solution! I’m using bud blood on the rear and bud ignitor on the front ones! I’m so proud of my girls can’t wait until next week with some close ups of them forming buds! I’m so happy to be where I’m at with these girls all I’ve we heard is amazing things about this strain so to be so ahead with them makes me super proud!

The Afghani has filled out really well. The smell coming from this plant is sweet and skunky. The cold night temperatures are causing the leaves to turn purple and some of the hairs are starting to turn orange. I'm having a hard time with identifying the difference between milky and clear trichomes. They look cloudy to me with a few areas that are still clear. I'm hoping to harvest next week but I may have to go another week.

July 8: big thunderstorm last night had a few minutes of hail that did mostly minor damage. Some fan leaves with holes and others taken right off the plant. Oh well. Now I know that some of the mystery holes in leaves might just be hail damage. July 9: these Northern Lights are the fastest growing of the autos in this batch. Added Power Bloom and a handful of malted barley as a top dressing. July 11: growing fast with hot and sunny forecast for the next two weeks. 👍

ok so everything has gone fantastic , no nutrient burns at all , and have been slowly creeping up the base nutrients , i have stopped the cal mag and now adding house and gardens bud XL at full strength these girls are now in full swing of flower and i bought a new ph stick this week , i have found when PHing the feed bucket that its best too have air stones in the bucket , add all nuts and then ph but do not use the feed that day as if you check the next day the ph is off again so i left it 24 hours after i add more ph down , and it seems too make the measurements alot easier and stable , i have bent down the main stems " without damaging them onto my netting too A keep the canopy all the same high so my lighting is covering all plants at the same distance and also it allowed the side stems too reach up too , i also was sponsored another new led light by kingbo this week so have added another 600watt led too the grow , so now have two 600's and one 900watt , and temps are still fine sitting at 24c lights on and 19-20 off , so am pleased with that , this lady is nice and compact and tight lots of leaves that I had too remove too open up her bud sites , stretch was also minimal ,

Flowering Week 24: Autumn Whispers & Yellow Leaf Mysteries Update: 28.08.2025 | Day 171 What’s good, Growmies? Hope your own gardens are treating you right as summer starts to fade. Temps are dipping to around 20°C here, and the ladies are feeling the shift. Didn’t do much this week – sometimes less is more. Noticed a few things, though: Zero pests – and I mean clean – but up on Blueberry’s top budsites, some yellow leaves are showin'. Doesn’t look like nitrogen – more like iron maybe? Wondering if the Bokashi juice dropped the pH a bit too hard. Thought about breakin' out the mineral nutes (Terra Aquatica TriPart flashed through my mind), but nah… I’m stickin' to the organic path. What do you guys think? Durban Poison Buds are bulkin' up nice – fattenin' by the day. Purple pistils poppin’ on every cola. Looks killer. Deeper inside the canopy, some lower yellow leaves (classic nitrogen fade), but nothin' to stress over. She’s healthy where it counts. Blueberry Still stretchin' – slowly but surely. More pistils showin' now, and yeah, those calyxes are takin' on a sweet purple hue. Smell’s still light – neighbors are safe… for now. Next Steps - Keep an eye on that iron-like yellowing – act if it spreads - Stay vigilant for pests tryna hide in new buds - Keep pickin' off old leaves – mold prevention is key - Maybe one more light defoliation on Durban – open her up just a touch more That’s all for this week, folks. Catch y’all next time. – Smoking_Joe_Frazier

Dialed back the nutrients (every second feeding still is water+Lemonjuice only) after seeing some limegreen/burnt leavetips on plant #2. The tips on #3 we're also getting brighter and its serrations we're standing up from the leaves all over the plant (sawtoothing I think its called). Since the sawtoothing is not limited to the upper growth I think its something related to nutrients and not light/wind-burn. The trellisnetting allowed me to keep plant #2 at 50cm while #3 catched up to over 45cm with the tops of the 4 upper flowers. In the process #2's tops got stretched over the full width of the tent, almost mainlined. I try my best at curving them inwards again to mitigate some of the stretch right now, but at some point the only way will be up.👆 Learning a lot about how pliable the plant is. In retrospect I could have topped #2 two or even three times instead of once. #3 is really going into flower this week, while #2 hasnt gotten the memo yet. After 12 days of 12/12 there are no white pistils, except some really tiny ones in the pre-flower bracts at the nodes.

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/

So at day 22 I got a small grow tent (36"x20"x63" because it's starting to get cold outside and plant was in a not so insulated shed. Hopefully my grow light will keep her warm enough for now. I will eventually have to invest in a small space heater with a thermostat. She's been though a lot of obstacles (temperature, humidity etc.) But I must say she's looking a lot better. I am open to any suggestions and thanks to the guys that gave me some info. I'm looking to get a cheap efficient fix for heating for my grow tent, if anyone have any suggestions please let me know. Thanks Day 23......so my little grow tent is is doing it's job. Temperature is staying at about 78 to 82° so I'm a little happy. Still running grow light constantly until I figure out a way to heat efficiently. I do notice some water inside my tent but I do have a an inlet fan coming soon but I might just use it as an exaust. Day 24 bigger and prettier. She growing, I guess I'm doing something right😊. Day 25...... installed an exaust fan because I was getting sweat inside my tent because it's (my grow tent) is in a shed and with the heat inside the tent and the temp in the shed. Hopefully this helps my situation. I also got temperature sensor hooked up to a heated bulb so we'll see where this goes. But my plant is growing fine for now and I'm actually seeing some growth. Let me know what you guys think.

Iris is definitely a tough fighter. All the ladies showed what they can do this week. I'm very excited to see what happens next. Everything looks very good.

Tropicana Cookies - Starting to see amber/cloudy trichomes. Will probably harvest in the next couple of days. Not a big plant by any means but I’m stoked on it. Covered in trichomes, smells like god and nice, dense buds.

The plant has become really massive and the fruity smell it gives off is perhaps one of the most pleasant I've ever smelled. The plant drinks almost 2L of water per day. I changed the fertilizers by removing those not strictly necessary for the flower's energy, in order to make the plant use the vital lymph of the leaves, which will lose them further favoring the growth of the inflorescences. At the same time I added ADV Overdrive, a magnesium, phosphate and potassium based fertilizer which stimulates the weight gain of the flowers. For the hundredth day I decided to make a video, I'm definitely satisfied! I expect to cut the plant around the 10th week of flowering.
