Today 7/30/19, day 57 and the start of week 9. I'm still continuing to alternate between days with my pesticide treatment (especially after finding that bug living on one of hulkberries fan leaf) and thrive alive green daily foliage spray as a prophylactic solution against any possible pests or mold going into these last few dog days of veg. I will flush them with distilled ph'd water for two days this weekend in preparation for flower. Then I'll start them on some "flower fuel" bloom booster on top of my secret for success flower recipe at 1/4 of the recommended strength. Outside of that still no adverse issue to report for the end of the 8th week. After my last trim, they both have responded very nicely, I was kind of worried about fat banana stalled growth. But one thing I noticed when I topped her at the 6th node, yes the main stem stopped growing but it developed many bud sites up and down every stem. Whereas hulkberry was topped at the 8th node, she has mainly focused on developing long stems and only 2 or 3 bud sites along her stems. Even though hulkberry in structure, is much bigger than fat banana and has a way bigger root system. Fat banana is bushier and has developed way more bud sites than hulkberry. I can't tell which strain will yield the most at this point only time will tell! Also, a big shout out to "J"@RQS, thank you for the excellent customer service. Another reason why Royal Queen Seeds is top 3 in breeding!!

With these plants, I started them directly in rockwool (no paper towel method or soaking, dry seed straight to cube) and the cube for Plant 1 ended up waterlogged, and the plant almost drowned. Now she's stunted, but I'm going to to let her go to harvest, even if she only produces larf (It's my first grow, so it's all just a learning experience at this point to me.) I moved both girls from the previous germination method to the one I'm using now, which is promix in a double-solo cup. Plant 2 just showed me her tap root out of the inside (grow cup where the seeds are located) cup, so I mixed together a 1-gallon MasterBlend mix (2.4-2.4-1.2) and fed her nutrients. Plant 1 is a little slower and hasn't shown me her tap yet, so no nutes for her. I'm using the AC Infinity humidity dome/propagation chamber with the grow lights and four vents. I keep the humidity around 82-84% because I'm aiming for a vpd of 0.6-0.9, and the temp stays around 70-75F. Day 18 is when I moved them both to their buckets. 4 gal in each bucket, so they got a 9.6-9.6-4.8 feed; will monitor for the next 24-48hrs and make sure they like it. Also, its measurement is grams/gal, not tsp/gal.

This week brought some challenges—I discovered thrips on the leaves of my plant. Thankfully, the infestation isn’t too severe yet, and I acted quickly to address the issue: 1. Sprayed the plant with plain water to knock off any pests. 2. Removed the top layer of soil. 3. Applied BioBizz Leaf Coat as a protective measure. I really hope this will help. After reading up on these nasty pests, I learned that they can completely devastate the leaves if left unchecked. Unfortunately, I have only myself to blame for their appearance. Due to the cold weather, I’ve been using a heater in the room with my growbox, which has caused the humidity to drop significantly. It sometimes dips as low as 30%, and it rarely goes above 50%. Most of the time, the humidity hovers around 35-40%, which is an ideal breeding ground for thrips. To answer the obvious question—yes, I do have a humidifier. However, my growbox has a very powerful exhaust fan (315 m³/h for an 80x80 space), so the air is refreshed too quickly for the humidifier to make a lasting difference. Aside from fighting thrips, I also made some adjustments to my grow this week. On Day 20, I did a little LST. Honestly, I wasn’t planning on using any training techniques in this grow, but I decided to give it a try anyway. One thing I can say for sure—I want to skip LST in my next grow. It’s quite inconvenient to water the plant when the leaves are practically touching the soil. Additionally, I defoliated the first two sets of leaves. I felt this was necessary to improve airflow around the plant and reduce the risk of pests spreading further. Watering: Day 17: 400 ml Day 20: 500 ml I’m keeping a close eye on the plant and hope to overcome these challenges successfully.

Topped this girl this week, she’s growing pretty good. Very nice looking plant to my eye.

🍀21/07 - Ya se encuentra en etapa de secado. 🍀En el lavado de raíz le agregue 30L de agua con 10ml de Top Wash, las ultimas lavadas ya el agua de la maceta salia transparente. 🍀A la hora de cortarla largaba mucho olor a dulce, los cocos todos llenos de resina y muy pegajosos. 🍀La gran mayoría de los cogollos son grandes y densos, muy poca cantidad de cocos chicos. 🍀Es una planta espectacular, no tuve ningún problema en toda su etapa, creció perfecta. 🍀La voy a dejar los días necesarios para que pueda secarse, ya compre sobres de humedad para el próximo paso que seria el curado. 🍀Dio un total de 165g, en un indoor de 60x60 y con luz led de 150w. 🍀En estos días seguiré subiendo mas imágenes de como viene. 🍀😶‍🌫️🇦🇷Podes seguirme Insta gram como @bruweed_arg🍀😶‍🌫️🇦🇷

Semaîe 5 fini, les têtes grossisent lentement mais surement, je pense pousser les nutriment 1 semaine de plus ou 2 avant rinçage car pistil encore bien blanc pour un debut de semaine 6.

Our friends at Zamnesia are frenetically active in the search for innovation for their growers and here we have a strain that brings us a citrus that reminds us so much of my homeland Italy but also of the one that is hosting me Spain both great growers of mandarins and therefore Tangerine Dream. If you only look at them a week ago it seems unbelievable, but when the plants start, they go. In this diary you will find the plant worked with the techniques in this case the first topping was done, we cleaned everything else creating the Mainfold and we are going to work everything with the main lining. We are at the first topping and we have two mini branches growing. The other one you can find in the diary next worked without the application of techniques that involve cuts to preserve its speed. The comparison is the salt of the experience. We have started the Plagron fertilization program, we are in 100% organic configuration, the soil is recycled Promix + 1/3 fresh soil + 10% Perlite + RQS Mycorrhiza Mix (4gr in the mix, 1 gr under the small fiber pot). We are administering // 1 ml/l of Power Roots - 1 ml/l of Pure Zym - 1 ml/l of Sugar Royal - 3 ml/l of Alga Grow I have doubts about the compatibility of Pure Zym with mycorrhizae. If in doubt, ask the experts, don't mix too much at random. https://plagron.com/en Doubts about Pure Zym / Mycorrhizae compatibility have been dispelled, they can go well together according to Plagron experts. If someone tells you that enzymes eat mycorrhizae, which in principle may seem possible, explain to them that it is not true. https://www.royalqueenseeds.it/growing/452-easy-roots-mix-di-micorrhize.html Taste this strain a little bit, it's a cross of legendary strains ---- // https://www.zamnesia.io/en/10966-zamnesia-seeds-tangerine-dream.html Short Description Zamnesia // When legendary genetics are crossed, something exceptional can only be born.

Over night soak with paper towel will update once we got action

The Weather changed daily and the temps dropped to 15 degrees at Daytime. She looked sad all week but as soon as the Sun comes out she's happy.

Unusual late year warm weather has put a hurting on my grow. I intentionally did RDWC in winter to utilize cool temps for my res and not need a chiller, after having random 78 degree days, I’ve ordered a chiller. The temps are a death sentence in hydro, I was adding ice to the res to battle it, won’t happen again after this chiller is put in. Definitely hurt the Apex plant, which has been a pain the entire grow.. it all started when Apex was a seedling, with its tap root growing up instead of down. She looks sad, If she dies or falls too far behind, I’ll train the other three around to fill in the space. No visible signs of root rot but I’m suspicious after those temps, have treated with Orca, SLF-100, and Hydroguard. Worst case scenario, I’ll dump the system and sanitize as best I can.

Dec 26/Day 16.25 @5pm: LST begins and at 8pm 1 top leaf defoliated for light penetration. Dec 26 @10pm: Turned bloom lights off (cobs) and left veg lights on. Lowered lighting to 12". Broke her main stalk and taped it. EEEE Giving her a short break from the heat and time to stretch while I LST her. Her humidity levels are up around 54-60% with cobs off and humidifier running. Dec 27/Day 17 @4:20pm: Both cob and veg lights are on again and the light hangs 12" above. Dec 27 @9:30pm: Watered her with 2.5L at a PH of 6.56, soaking the whole pot through for the first time. PH runoff was 6.71 This week, I started watering daily with 0.4L and by week end about 0.75L at PH 6.6-6.7

03.04.24 Startet soaking them in Water, all of them fell to the bottom.💧 Transplanting them later on the day into cups.🥤 05.04.24 Transplanted them into their cups, now waiting till the 4 girls show up. 🌱 07.04.24 Banana and GG #4 showed up first and pretty much at the same time. The other are still underground.🌱🍌☀️ 09.04.2024 Sunset paradise showed up, now just waiting for the Runtz.. 🌱 10.04.2024 They all doing well, besides the runtz. Still no sign, but it surely comes🌱 11.04.2024 Everyone doing well, just runtz doesn’t want to show up… slowly I believe it’s never coming but we will wait a few days🙏🏻 14.04.2024 Oke guys I think the runtz is dead.. im a little bit sad bc i wanted to test this strain.. but it happens🙂 Addet some new soil for the bigger 2, because the head was too heavy.. hope this doesn’t cause more problems..🙏🏻 But let’s see how the other 3 are going. I think tomorrow I start a new veggie week here. 🌱✌️

The plant is now in its 3rd week of flowering, they look very healthy and the first pistils can be seen. The smell starts to become slightly sweet. The first signs that the fertilizer is working can also be seen, spores are forming on the soil. I'm very excited to see what these magnificent specimens will bring 💚💚💚

Die Ernte ist geschafft, jetzt genieße ich die Früchte meiner Arbeit. Cookies Gelato Auto von RQS gehört wie Fat Banana Auto zu meinem ersten Tagebuch auf Growdiaries. Leider wird das Tagebuch nicht angezeigt in meiner öffentlichen Liste und der Support von der Seite wusste auch nicht weiter. Deswegen habe ich mich dazu entschieden, euch an meinem Grow von vor 2 Jahren teilhaben zu lassen 😊

10 days of darkness during the flush begins. Had great results with Wanda and her genetics. Blessed for a first grow. Cut Wanda down at the end of the week. She’s now drying. I will be giving a thorough review for my harvest diary. Excited to share what I’ve experienced and learned from this grow.
