Did well with how cold it was this winter and I am in a major flareup since August and have done a poor job with taking care of them like I would have liked to.. Overall I want to grow this one again someday as I know I can do much better however I am very pleased with the outcome and Awesome line Seedsman😎

The plant grown on the outside terrace had to be moved to a larger pot and placed inside my kitchen because it was yellowish and the leaves burned. The weather was not stable and there were strong gusts of wind that ruined the factory. It is now improved.

I used to love skunk weed 20 years ago hope mines as good or better than that was....

Bigg diffrence since last week

Hey there! Welcome to this diary! I made it easy back in 2021. Sorry in advance for the Spanish audio. For my germination method I always use both the glass of water and the paper towel. Let me explain, the glass of water only goes for 6 to 12 hrs, it's just a soak that also contains 3-4 drops of hydrogen peroxide, this way we kill all pathogens that the seed may have on the outside. Then to a warm, moist and dark place with the paper towel, this seed sprouted pretty fast using this method. Then, once it has that tiny mouse tail of it goes to the pot, I keep it moist by putting a transparent cup upside down. Just to keep the dates, it just took from the 17th to the 19th to go from the cup with water, to the paper tower, to the soil, AND SPROUT!!

the strain is really strong , low temperatures resist , 3 weeks around 12/16º graus and steell growing wel nice new colos between week 4/6 in flowering. really good strain to manipulate! 5 stars * * * * *

Estoy satisfecho porque la planta está sana y creciendo bien pero la conclusión es que con tres o cuatro plantas y poda apical se reduce mucho el tiempo de vegetación. En cuanto a riego está pidiendo mucha agua y creciendo a gusto. Espero la semana que viene pasarla a floración. Hice una muy ligera defoliación y un canal para que el agua no se escape por los agujeros de la maceta al regar.

Flowering week 8 is done for my girls. The week went pretty smoothly, except for one issue that’s getting more obvious as the buds gain weight. On at least the three Critical Orange Punch plants, the branches are starting to give up and lean wherever they feel like, so the tent is a bit “lived in” right now.I did my best to support everything without making it a whole engineering project, tying branches together and pulling them into better positions. A scrog net would’ve helped, but with the tent upgrade and how often I’ve needed to move plants out for checks, it just wasn’t practical this run.Aroma-wise, this round feels noticeably sweeter than my previous Critical Orange Punch run, except maybe the Special Kush. Buds are a bit smaller, but they’re making up for it with resin, color, and overall intensity. Special Kush might be the least productive, but that piney note with a touch of lemon is seriously addictive.Parameters are stable, humidity is slightly high at around 55% to 60%, temps around 23°, and I’m keeping feeds consistent with low EC like I’ve been doing the last three weeks. I’m expecting at least two more weeks to go.That’s it for this week. Tips and opinions are always welcome. Happy growing everyone!

Start Woche 6 Blüte Die 3 machen bisher absolut keine Schwierigkeiten 👍👍 Ausser Tank auffüllen und ab und an paar Blätter wegmachen ist nix zu tun🥀 Nur die 🤐🤐 Trauermücken, die Biester wollen einfach nicht weg. Geht zwar noch, aber ich denke ich werd nochmal SF Nematoden benutzten.

Today, I spent some time tying down branches under the net again. It’s still a tricky task as the branches are quite brittle and break easily. Fortunately, the plants recover quickly, and so far, I’ve mainly noticed new growth sprouting from where the branches broke. Watering Experiment: Too Much or Just Right? Two days ago, I decided to give each plant an additional 2 liters of water to test the effects of what felt like overwatering. The results were interesting: High Humidity: The relative humidity spiked to 74%, which I consider a minor downside. Lower Temperature: Dropped to 29°C. Explosive Growth: The plants responded with vigorous growth! Given the humidity increase, I’ve decided to water the plants heavily only once a week. This approach should give them time to rest and prevent the growth of more mushrooms in the soil—yes, I’ve spotted a few popping up from the pot’s surface. Monitoring pH and Nutrient Reservoir I’ve also noticed that the pH has crept up to 6.2, indicating that the nutrient water hardness is decreasing. This suggests it might be time for a full reservoir refresh. Tonight, I plan to inspect the reservoir and clean it out. Thankfully, my hydro pump makes draining it a quick and easy process. Observations & Next Steps Continue training and monitoring branch recovery. Stick to the adjusted watering schedule. Refresh the nutrient reservoir and recalibrate the pH if needed. The grow is progressing nicely, and the plants seem happy despite some of the challenges. Let’s keep it going! 🌱 Cheers 30/11: Added some pictures, not to much to say because I didn't look at them the last 2 days and they just went crazy.. 01/01/25: Happy New year!! Leaving them alone is not an option... If they keep growing like this, I'll take it! This weekend, I'll do some heavy pruning. For now, I’ve snapped a few stems and tied some others to see which method gives better results. I’ve done about half so far, but I need to head to bed because of work. Tomorrow evening, I’ll tackle the other half. Also, I’ll look for some more subtle zip ties.

Nice strain to grow overall especially for the terps it produced, yield was more on the low side as expected from one for these "hype" strains or whatever you want to call them.

The plants would have been growing well if I were there to figure out what was wrong with them but I was on the first week of a 2 week vacation so my gf didn't know what to do with them and I could only try to give tips from afar. I assumed they would all die.

Let’s start with my favorite part the smell! It’s like a citrus candy dipped in diesel. The aroma grabs your nose and your throat it’s that intense! Even in a small pot, the buds came out rock hard, absolutely covered in trichomes. A truly galactic result. 🚀🔥

End of Week 10 (Third week of flower) The ladies are frosting up slightly and there are trichomes developing on the fan leaves, this can only mean that they are happy, the genetics are fire and that we are in for a treat! The main top-sites are swelling up by the day. Trying to keep the training to a bare minimum and ONLY removing fan leaves that are blocking bud sites. The lower part of the canopy is denser than I would have liked but I do not want to stress the plants too much by removing it at all. I will now try to keep a cooler average temperature in the following couple of weeks to promote healthy flower development and hopefully bring out some beautiful colours - and also keep the relative humidity lower to ensure that the plants aren't susceptible to mould and mildew. Pest Report: None

Just a video of the girlies

Vamos familia, actualizamos la primera semana de floración de estas Thunder Banana de Seedstockers, salieron las 3 de 3, 100% ratio éxito. Aplicamos varios productos de Agrobeta, que son increíbles para aportar una buena alimentación a las plantas. Temperatura y humedad dentro de los rangos correctos dentro de la etapa de crecimiento. La tierra utilizada es al mix top crop, por cambiar. De 3 ejemplares seleccioné los 2 mejores para completar el indoor, cambié el fotoperiodo a 12/12 y también apliqué una poda de bajos, se ven bien sanas las plantas, tienen un buen color progresan a muy buen ritmo por el momento, marcaron las preflores. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Day 168- 20/11 : She is still swelling some more and the scent is getting stronger and stronger ! An amazing spicey, chocolate smell with hint of berry. When really rubbed the scent turn into a very strong hazey sweet hash scent . Just amazing. The buds are starting to fall over and so I starter to support them. I think she will be ready within the next 5-7 days. Day 170 - 22/11 : Looking good ! She is fading nicely and buds are maturing, Harvest is so close I can taste it !

Awesome and beautiful plant nothing to complain and maybe going again on tent sometime, strong recommend fruity lovers. Was easy to grow and bend, reacted well to topping too. Was fast grower in veg and stretch phase. Buds was little more bigger than average and almost rock hard with very nice trichome production. Leafs had nice purple fading on the end and buds had purple earlier. Smell was tropical fruity (orange/mandarin) with some sourness. Tropical Tangie from DP have same kinda smell profile but more fruity and sour atleast my grews and i liked it little more. Flowered 54 days from pistils and 1 plant yielded 159gr what it more than average on this tent/setup.

The preflower stretch starded and some future bud sights are starting to show . Plants look like healthy and happy teenagers ! The canopy is even and has almost completely filled out the tent surface thanks to the topping, the lst'ing, and the scrogging : ) I added a second trellis net to support the future BUDS, plants look healthy and happy ! Happy growing y'all !

Rolling into Week 2! Everything has been running completely according to plan so far. Mother Nature is definitely cooperating, serving up some optimal weather with plenty of sunshine, around 25°C during the day, dropping to a comfortable 15°C at night, and zero rain. Following the Biotabs NL guidelines for automatics, I pressed the second Biotab into the soil today. Otherwise, it’s a quiet and easy phase—just sticking to plain water for now and letting them do their thing until we reach the second week of flowering. Everything is looking great so far!
