Hey uys how is it going? I must tell you This dude If you want tons of buds And really awesome smell Then you should get Cream Mandarine XL From Sweet Seeds Yo mine was literally dying when early seedling, but manage to save her and look Omg she's so gorgeous I love it Thank you so much sweet seeds for your support and encouragement thank you for those awesome gifts Alright guys so I'm on day 126 Right now, I have been feeding her for like forever cuz she's been my first XL She's so huge and I'm so happy we got her. Buds are so fatty, they're most likely orange right now. Tons of them but still has some of them on the bottom tiny ones with white hairs as well, dude this is so amazing... Plan on to harvest her tomorrow tho Not all of her but I will take most of the ones that are ready to go, will let light get to the ones on the bottom to see if they get fatty as well. Will feed her nutes after taking some flowers from her. I love my girls for real, sometimes don't want to even hurt them but haha you have to get the buds ya know xD Lol I'm stoned. Alright guys sorry happy new year 2021 Everybody I just forgot to tell you my pc is fckdd up right now so was hard to upload pics but now I have time and space on my phone as well so there you go... Some pics and some videos I will try to add the remaining weeks from 12-16 so you can see her progress alright And also, thank you for everything grow diaries

Go buy yourself a carbon filter if you will grow this strain because the smell is SO STRONG that when I was harvesting a took a 5 minute break because of the smell..

-At the moment there is bad weather but the little ones are getting better and better. Stand in the mini greenhouse in the evening, as long as it is dry and the sun comes out outdoors.👨🏽‍🌾 -Zurzeit ist schlechtes Wetter aber die kleinen machen sich immer besser. Stehen abends im Mini Gewächshaus, solange es trocken ist und die Sonne raus kommt im Freien.👨🏽‍🌾

Things looking almost perfect other than INSECTS!!!!!😱 girls have been sprayed top to toe. I’ll continue to observe. But yes other than that great. The gelato are very big plants going outwards and upwards, all possible flowering spots seem to be taking and slowly covering in pistils😍😍😍 Fliwering has commenced ✌️🏻😬✌️🏻 The plants really bulking out now looking good and strong. And really are covered in flowers. They will get a new flowering light and a little more space to grow tomorrow 😍😍😍😍 hopefully great tings will follow. I’ll be using New Millennium Decision on the girls for a few days in the next couple of days, they really are as tall as they should go.🤔 New light in and tings looking good. After a couple of days under the new light the plants seem more than happy. It’s quite a slim line light too so I’m afforded a little extra room up top in case da girls decide to stretch anymore. Things seem to be settling down now and pistils are multiplying quicker by the day. Got a pleasant smell coming from the stems and leaves, very soft and non aggressive possibly a softer take on GSC coming through, but my nose although huge isn’t that good at picking up subtleties in the aromas it grabs a hold of. The girls really are looking strong and vibrant and seem to be wearing their new found flowers well.

BLÜTEWOCHE 7 trotz der hardcore probleme wachsen die buds. Es riecht nicht stark aber gut. die acapulco hat nen oldschool geruch mit leichtem kaffee caramel Unterton. die critical riecht auch eher old school mit süßer zitrone. die zkittlez riecht beerig, gasig. Alle buds sind kopakt. Die critical habe ich mit leitungswasser und ro Wasser auf ec 0.3 gebracht und erst mal gespült bis auf ec 2.0. ich werd morgen noch mal spülen bis der ec auf 1.2 ca ist..dann nur noch wasser. Acapulco und zkittlez brauchen 1 bis 2 wochen länger. Werd aber morgen auch die acp gold und zkittlez das erste mal spülen. Euch noch nen schönen 2. weihnachtstag 🎉

She is growing well and received light LST this week

This week went very well! One will be getting cut an hung to dry while the rest finish up with one more week of flush ! These ladies are smelling so lovely I hope you all enjoy! Stay tuned for next week! Cheers 😤💨💨💨💨💨

11/06 Day 45 Temp 25c Humidity 57% Not a lot to report, I'm going to leave them be until their next feeding on Sunday 12/06 Day 46 Temp 27c Humidity 60% 13/06 Day 47 🌞 Temp 28c Humidity 67% Ordered another Spider Farmer light. This time the SF4000. Combined with the Sf2000 I'm currently growing under it'll be 600W or as near to as possible. It should arrive in time for flowering at the end of next week. 14/06 Day 48 🍼 Temp 27c Humidity 65% Fed the monsters 1.5L of solution each. Retrained and defoliated the lower fan leaves and removed some new tops that are appearing in order to create more space between branches Another two weeks like this and I'll switch them into flower 15/06 Day 49 Temp 28c Humidity 59% Slight tweaking of the training I did yesterday. Everyone looks happy and growing in the right direction. 16/06 Day 50 Temp 28c Humidity 59% Left the ladies to recover and compose themselves today. 17/06 Day 51 Temp 28c Humidity 59% trimmed a few nodes of one that was injured so I let it to grow out a bit more and recover

Hi all 🧑‍🌾 Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update. Hope everyone keeping well and having a good week. Thank you so much for your support on this bananas journey 💜💚💜💚 I am so happy to see how girls are developing in recent days. It's seems that Athena finally stopped her stretch and hoping that Xena will follow her sister very soon. Buds are gaining weight and size rapidly. Lots of nice colours and tonnes of trichomes on those buds already. Week 10 Dec 18-24 Dec 18-19 Mainly observation. Xena is still stretching like crazy. both girls are developing beautifully. Dec 20 First watering for this week. 7.5 ltr beetwen both. Runoffs PH's Athena 6.2 Xena 6.3. Dec 21 Due to lack of light at lower parts of conopy decided for another selective defoliation, lowered a bit tallest branches with colas dangerously close to light by tieing them to netting. Couple cm will make a huge difference here. Could not clear well at the back wall of the cabinet due to limited access.I'm very happy with final result. Dec 22-23 Joyful observation of my 🍌💜👊girls development 🧑‍🌾 Dec 24 All is looking great. It's seems that stretch is finally stopped. Girls looking healthy and happy. Second watering for this week. 8 ltr beetwen both. Both runoffs PH 6.2. It's the end of this week. Happy Xmas everyone 🤶🎄❄️🎁☃️✌️💚🌲🎅🎄 Stay tuned for new week update ✨🍀✨✌️💚

The mites didn’t get this plant quite as bad . I cant wait to cut them down and clean this room out and start fresh!

5 weeks 12 on 6 off over I have switched her over to 12/12 and put her on week 4 feed I think it is closer to where she is at on flowering. Yep she flowering

Last few days now, i gave them one feed with canna flush. I’ll just give them ph balanced water for now. Then put them in 48hr darkness with no water. I moved them to my other tent in preparation for harvest.

Se hace muy difícil el control de la temperatura y ellas se hacen algunos centímetros más altas de lo que deberían,por lo demás va perfecto están floreciendo muy bien ,ellas quieren más y más abono se abona dos veces en semana y una con agua,ya que en dos días o tres de han consumido el agua de la maceta,ya se empieza a distinguir algún fenotipo en su forma distinto ,la verdad que estoy muy contento @sweetseeds nunca falla.

day78: watered 6.4ph day80:watered 6.5ph day83:watered 6.1ph day85: watered 6.2ph give ζamensia a try, genetics are ON point.

The plantas get a little bit struck, I don't know what's going on, I will start a new phase off fertilizer from advanced nutrients.

It has been another amazing week of the plants growing. I have been watching as the Fruity Freak leaves become progressively more fern-like, and ornamental as a result! Based on my Banizzle grows, I knew I needed to understand plant nutrients in a more meaningful way if I wanted these plants to thrive. So, I decided to get a soil test (see Ref. 1 below on how to perform a test) to understand what nutrients my plants needed. The report I received advised that I needed to add 200 lbs/acre of nitrogen, 150 lbs/acre of phosphorus, and 190 lbs/acre of potassium (see picture labeled Pic.1 (FYI you can't see these images unless you login to growdiaries)). I then researched what to do with my results (Ref. 2 helped), and I figured out that my nutrient needs of 200-150-190 fall close to a 2-1-2 ratio. I then looked at different types of organic fertilizers (see Ref. 3 and Ref. 4) and considered that I already had a 3-10-5 fertilizer (Vermibloom) on hand. I discovered Dr Earth’s Alfalfa Meal is 2-1-2 and includes beneficial bacteria and mycorrhizae (to promote healthy plant growth and disease resistance). However, I knew I would be low on nitrogen if I only used those two fertilizers. Therefore, I decided to buy some blood meal (12-0-0). I also liked that blood meal is more fast acting while the other two are more moderate. I hunted around for a solid fertilizer calculator and found an amazing tool from the University of Georgia Extension (Ref. 5). I entered all three fertilizers into the calculator, and it kicked out the exact amount of each fertilizer I needed to apply to 1 square foot (see Pic. 2). As I am using 10-gallon fabric pots (that can hold 1.5 cubic feet, but I put stone on the bottom and there’s space left at the top) I decided to use the one square foot application rate as I can always add more later, but I can’t take it away. Not only did I want to understand the nutrients I needed, but I also wanted to understand the structure of the soil (as it was not included in my test results). North Dakota State University has a nice page that discusses this (Ref. 6), and I performed a soil ribbon test (see Video 1) based on this information. I determined my soil to be medium textured (which is great), but I have seen occasional water pooling on the surface, suggesting that it may be more of a medium-fine. This means adding peat moss, coco coir, or other amendments might improve drainage (and plant hydration) and allow for roots to grow more easily. In the long run, I plan to use compost to enhance the soil structure and nutrients. I filled the bottom of my 10-gallon fabric pots with a ½” of pea stone to allow for drainage (Pic. 3). I then partially filled two 5-gallon buckets with topsoil from near where I will plant (but not in an area the roots will reach). I used a digital scale to measure the amount of fertilizers recommended by the calculator (Pic. 4, 5, and 6) and added it to one of the 5-gallon buckets (see Pic. 7). I mixed the fertilizers into the soil as evenly as possible (Pic. 8 and 9). I then poured a two-inch layer of non-fertilized soil, then peat moss, and then fertilized soil (in a roughly 2:1:1 ratio) and blended them together. I repeated this until the pot was full (getting additional soil as needed), and then I repeated the process for the other three pots. I set the filled fabric pots in my garage (Pic. 10) for two days to allow any upset bugs to flee into my garage instead of my house. I then moved the pots (wrapping them in a contractor garbage bag to prevent making a mess) into the room with the grow light. I placed a board on top of the fabric pots to insulate the plants (in their smaller pots) from the cold soil (Pic. 11). Once the soil in the fabric pots reaches room temperature, I will transplant. (Ref. 1) This video shows the method I used to take a soil sample. I didn’t have a field to test, so I took four samples from the area where I will eventually plant outdoors and blended them together. I then mailed my soil sample off to the lab, and about a week later, I received an email with a PDF of my results (included with my pictures this week). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9AwxmFxBwg&t=8s (Ref. 2) This video from the University of Minnesota Extension (many universities have agriculture extensions that can assist you with soil testing and growing information for your area) discusses what to do with your soil testing results: https://youtu.be/HYrkcfE62Pg (Ref. 3) This is a nice article that discusses organic fertilizer solutions: https://www.grow-it-organically.com/npk-fertilizer.html (Ref. 4) This article lists the NPK values of many organic fertilizer solutions: https://www.epicgardening.com/organic-fertilizers/ (Ref. 5) Many websites tout a fertilizer calculator…but this one is hands down the best I have found. If you scroll down to the bottom, you can enter any fertilizer type you want (and the cost, if you want). It will give you the exact blend of multiple fertilizers to solve your nutrient deficiencies (I included a snapshot of the solution I used in my pictures). https://aesl.ces.uga.edu/soil/fertcalc/ (Ref. 6) This is an excellent article that discusses how to evaluate your soil: https://www.ndsu.edu/agriculture/extension/publications/evaluating-preparing-and-amending-lawn-and-garden-soil

Using Trimzilla for the 1st time very excited to see how quick it speeds up the process
