No joke, the small plant last week blew up. It grew almost 10 inches in a single week! I had to put the Vulcan pinch on this skinny beast! I know it’s taboo to let train a plant in flower but she was forcing my light up.

The temperatures, humidity, height, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil spread evenly across the top of the soil. Day 1 we had a high temperature of 84°F. We had intermittent storms and showers throughout the day that took care of the watering. The powdery mildew treatment worked well on these. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 88°F. We had on and off rain and thunderstorms throughout the day. The rain took care of the watering. These responded well to treatment. I'll treat again tomorrow. Day 3 we had a high temperature of 94°F with clear sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons from the well. I treated these again with Growers Ally fungicide. The warmer nights, blazing sun, and this fungicide have really cleared up that powdery mildew. They've also decided to go all in on flowering. Day 4 we had a high temperature of 94° with sunny skies. Heat index was over a hundred. It was super hot today. I watered twice about 8 gallons total. Everything looked good after treatment. Day 5 we had a high temperature of 95 and partly cloudy skies. I watered twice about 4-5 gallons each time with well water. Day 6 we had a high temperature of 91°F with partly cloudy skies. I watered twice today 4-5 gallons each pot, each time. These look great after treatment. Day 7 we had a high temperature of 88°F with sunny skies. I watered 5-6 gallons each pot. This week was a success. The powdery mildew issue has been cleared up. The Growers Ally fungicide worked great. These girls have rooted into the ground through the pots which is helping some of the 100+heat index days. It's hard to keep these pots moist in that kind of heat. Overall it was a great week.

my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect growing stage was 56 days and flowering stage was 75 days total (harvested tops at day 64th) the total weight of dry buds was : (plant #1 & #3 top buds 56 G + lower buds 22 G ) 78 G + (plant #2 top buds 47 G + lower buds 18 G ) 55 G + (plant #4 top buds 120 G + lower buds 67 G ) 187 G = 367 G

Was another good week this week. Seem to have figured out the brown spotting, started adding sensi-calmag to the mix and the spotting has stopped and leaf color is darkening back up. Not sure if was from calmag deficiency or low nitrogen, but either way they look better so it seems like it was the right call. Did a light defoliation early in the week, maybe a dozen leaves per plant. Just the usual stuff under canopy or bunching too much. Has been much easier to keep humidity down since the heavy defoliation a week ago. Buds are really starting to look good on three of the four plants with the front left being furthest along. She is starting to pack frost already! Back left still looks a week behind, but coming in strong. Could this be a come from behind winner? Last day of the week took apart the Autopot system for a good clean. Clean the res, flush the lines with line cleaner, pull and clean the valves with dish soap, cleaned out the trays, wipe down the underside of the pots and back together it all goes. Been running for 40 days and this is the first clean, should be the only one as there's only maybe 40 days left. I find the B52 builds up a bit of sludge after a month or so, but worth using have seen noticable better grows since adding it to the feedings. Either way, an hour of work once a grow is nothing to complain about VS all the time out in hand watering. Also a big improvement on the newer 5.0 valves vs the previous generation. They are about double the diameter, so they gunk up MUCH less and fill a lot faster. Using the old valves I was cleaning every 1-2 weeks depending on feeding frequency. Lights 18" @90% pushing 700umol/s Watering 32L every 3 days Air domes running 100% of time 4" intake @70% 6" exhaust @50% 6" Oscillating fan @50%

🌿 Journal de Culture : Mac 1 Autoflower – "Bee Happy" 🐝 (Semaine 12) ​#Dryrocket ​Nous y voilà, l'avant-dernière étape avant le grand jour. Ma petite abeille a reçu son tout dernier apport de nutriments la semaine passée et est entrée officiellement dans sa phase finale. ​Un Grand Merci ​Un immense merci à @mia_biotabs pour avoir été présent à chaque étape de ce run à travers ses conseils. Un grand merci également à @Dryrocket : l'appareil va bientôt arrivé et est prêt sera pret à entrer en action pour le séchage, j'ai hâte de voir le résultat ! Merci enfin à toute la communauté qui vibre avec moi depuis le premier jour. ​Paramètres de Culture & Climat Extrême ​Taille : Stable à 91 cm. ​Climat : C'est le gros point noir et la principale bataille de cette fin de run. La chaleur dans la cave est devenue excessive avec de grosses hausses de température ces derniers jours. J'atteins des pointes compliquées à 29 - 30°C. Malgré ces conditions loin d'être idéales, "Bee Happy" fait preuve d'une résistance remarquable et encaisse le coup sans broncher. ​Humidité : Toujours stabilisée à 50% pour éviter tout problème de moisissure sur les fleurs compactes en fin de vie. ​Gestion de l'eau : Le rinçage est entièrement géré par l'Autopot. Le réservoir a été basculé à 100% sur de l'eau claire pour nettoyer le substrat et pousser la plante à consommer ses dernières réserves. ​État des Buds & Observations Visuelles ❄️ ​Les têtes sont devenues extrêmement denses et sont littéralement blindées de trichomes. Le manteau de résine est lourd et collant. ​En jetant un œil attentif aux détails des photos, on constate que le cycle se termine en beauté. Malgré le manque de contrôle global que je regrette sur cette session (entre la colocation serrée avec Spirit, les caprices de pH du bulleur au début et les températures actuelles de la cave), la génétique a fait des miracles. Les calices sont gonflés au maximum, formant ces fameux blocs compacts typiques de ce phénotype "chou-fleur". La sénescence commence doucement à s'installer sur les pointes et les petites feuilles, signe que le rinçage à l'eau claire fait son travail en profondeur et que la plante puise ses derniers retranchements. ​Cap sur la récolte ✂️ ​Le compte à rebours est lancé. Les têtes sont dures, la résine est mûre, et le rinçage libère les derniers arômes de la plante. La semaine prochaine sera celle de la récolte ! --- Merci à tous d'avoir suivi ce run mouvementé mais ô combien riche en enseignements ! Rendez-vous dans sept jours pour le point final, la coupe, et le passage officiel dans le Dryrocket. Restez connectés, le meilleur reste à venir !

This is one of those days when this feels like work. But its done and should be smooth sailing from here on out. There are 2 different sized rockwool cubes. This was an ordering mistake but I think it will be ok. Their getting fed every 6 hours for 8 minutes now. I'll watch put for flagging and change accordingly.

Dude this thing smells amazing, got a creamy/sweet/citrus smell when I got some sap on my hand. Looks like someone dropped coke on my plant 😂 all these new strains amaze me one way or another! Would like to learn how to stretch autos outdoors in the future.

She’s evolving a sweet chewing gum like smell which is very pleasant . I think she’s taking the nitrogen of the leafes since there’s not much in the soil anymore . We’re aiming for 8-10 weeks of flower so this is fine for me . Overall she’s developing nicely except the lower branches which I usually cut off when lollipopping but this time I didn’t .

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/
