❄️🤩💚 Frost for days loud Terps, dense nugs not hard to trim and a good Harvest what can you which more for...?! Def together with Tricho Jordan the best Beans I grew out so far, highly recommend trying them out !

End of week 22: Overal it was a good run with the Shamans from @DutchPassion_Official . Didn't had mayor problems besides having to harvest them earlyer. I really wanted to flower them another 2 weeks but the weather/climate didn't allow me to. Still the buds came out decent as you can see for an early harvest. I will cure those buds for some time in my pots before they get smoked and will update how much weight I got out of the two plants. As you can see I made the bigger buds smaller. There is no use for me to keep big buds for showing off. Big buds just have big long stems in it, harder to dry and to fill your cure pots with.

[Week 1 - Germination] The Fat Banana seed has germinated and looks very healthy. Very small leaves have appeared in the past two days!

Popped up, looking solid.

Harvest Update – The Finale 🌱🏁 Alright Muchachos, this is the harvest update. Everything is done now: chopped, trimmed, dried and jarred. Yield-wise, it wasn’t exactly what I originally expected – but honestly, the quality makes up for everything. The smell is already absolutely insane. Heavy lemon, sweet candy, bonbon vibes, fresh and fruity. Really loud. And that’s before a proper cure. After another 2–4 weeks in the jars, I already know where this is heading. Smoke report so far: • Joint: burns great, smooth, tasty • Vape: super clean, very smooth, flavor pops hard • Aroma: lemony, fresh, fruity, slightly sweet – just perfect One thing still hurts a bit: the front-right plant. That phenotype was something special – really special. A shame I didn’t take backups, because that one was absolute fire. Lesson learned. All in all: A bit wild, not everything went according to plan, but a hell of a fun run and an amazing result in terms of quality. And don’t worry – this is not the end. In the background, the next ladies are already lined up, waiting for their turn in flower. More on that very soon. Muchachos, thanks for following along. Stay tuned. Hasta la vista. 🌱🔥

10/27: I rearranged the garden today and checked to see if she needed water yet. Nope.. 10/28: I watered her with about 1/4 gallon including terpinator, bembe, cal-mag, and some beastie bloomz because she's a little K deficient. 10/29: She's only stretching about an inch every couple of days..spending more energy on pistils, which is fine by me. Damn she's a hungry one, though! I'm still planning to flush tomorrow with no major nutes, but will give her another little dose of N and a metric shit-ton of P and K once she dries back out. 10/30: I decided not to do a flush and just did a very thorough watering today with added terpinator, bembe, cal-mag, humic acid, myco and bene bacti. I put about a half-gallon through her and let her sit and soak up all the run-off. It should take a few days for her to dry out. 10/31: I checked her moisture level. I'll feed her tomorrow. She's still looking P and.or K deficient despite my attempts to correct it. 11/1: I took her out of the closet and did a little defoliating. I sprinkled a little bat guano on her soil and fed her with about a half-gallon including all the good stuff, including beastie bloomz and full strength Tiger bloom. Surely that'll do the trick... 11/2: She still looks terribly K deficient and I just don't get it..thinking maybe my Ph tester needs recalibration or something. Like, maybe it's just to acidic for the K to be absorbed... I sprayed her thoroughly with boom boom spray and a little tiger bloom today.

F week 4.

Today is day 22, beginning of week 2 of veg. Looking good after topping yesterday. New growth already. Finding it hard to figure out LST, but making progress as soon as I see a leave that is shading another. Practice is helping toward perfection. I fed her today according to General Hydroponics Flora Series low/weak feed schedule. Did not use calmag because I realized there is already a lot of cal and mag in my tap water. I will be buying a 5 stage water filter reservoir so I will resume using it then. Currently only able to use tap water that is filtered through a Brita pitcher. Turned exhaust fan back on after initial 24 hours of balminess to promote growth and rh is back to normal parameters. August 18 update - It is summer in the northern hemisphere and guess who just got over covid? This plant mom. Ugh. Updates are dry this week because I was as sick as a dog. A couple of days ago I noticed purple stems on the fan leaves and the fact that the new growth was such a bright contrast compared to the older fan leaves. After a confirmatory TDS reading on the Apera meter regarding my suspicion of nutrient lockout, I flushed Kaboom 4 times to get her readings back to normal parameters. Today, day 28, (happy first month Kaboom) she is looking a lot better, photos and details in the next week :)

Week 2 of flower 👍🏾

SATURDAY 8/11: It's late Friday night..early Saturday morning..might as well start week 8! All systems are 'GO', and it's looking like I'm about 10-14 days away from starting the flush on WW#1 and maybe EM#1. I'm salivating 😍 I just gotta get these temperatures down a bit more.. SUNDAY 8/12: Yesterday I ordered a couple of 15.0 UVB 26w CFL bulbs to suspend over the girls that are the closest to finished..try to get them to ooze some more THC for me. Today I started germinating 7 more White White Autos from CKS and 4 more Candy Cane Autos from CKS. They will also be planted in 5gal fabric pots. They will be grown in the veg tent and moved into the main tent as space becomes available. The current crop will be harvested in waves, so I'll just employ stools for the new arrivals until everybody's been harvested from the current crop and I can lower the light again. MONDAY: I'm really starting to see the effects of the heat stress from this past week. So many dead or dying leaves. Temperatures are staying below 90 at the canopy and closer to 80 at the floor during the day..varying between 83 and 87 for most of the day and climbing to about 89 by sunset. It drops to 78-80 for 5 hours of nighttime. That's a shitload better than the mid to high 90's of last week, but the damage, I'm afraid, has been done.😢 EM#1 and WW#1 aren't gonna have enough vegetation left to do much else and I want to trim away the necrotic shit before it reaches the sugary stuff. There might be enough lower leaves left alive that I can just harvest the main colas and let the lower regions be for another week of swelling and flushing, but if not, they will get one more dose of tiger bloom and cha ching in 2 days, then two days later I will flush them really well and trim off all the dead shit. Let them dry for another day or two and flush them one more time really well and put them in the dark for a day before harvesting. EM#2 still has a good bit of green in her big fan leaves and will probably perk up and show me some more bud development.🙏 EM#3 hates anything above 85 degrees, so I'll probably never make her happy..😟 WW#2 and EM#4 don't seem to have been bothered by the heat near as much.👍 CC#1 and CC#2 don't like the heat at all..but they are killer dwarves and will pull through just fine.👌 I mixed up 7 gallons of ph'd water with calmag, bud candy, big bloom (no nitrogen), and a very heavy dose of boomerang and douched everybody really well. TUESDAY: The crispy girls got a big haircut today. I cut away most of the necrotic stuff on EM#1, EM#2, and WW#1. Buds should stay pretty for another few days...and wow are they pretty! The 3 plants still have enough foliage that I've decided to let them bask under the UVB lights for a day or two between flushes...see if I can't get them to ooze a little more of the good stuff. I moved them into the areas in the garden with less PAR..mainly 660nm reds and the UVBs. I also raised the lights about 2 inches. Pretty sure that EM#4 and WW#2 are within a week of finishing as well. So far, I have 3 new WW and 2 new CC sprouts planted. One WW has emerged thus far. She shall be called "WW#3" unless she earns a nickname. New photos and video clips were taken today. WEDNESDAY: I had a 100% germination success rate with the 7 new WW's and 4 new CC's! They all got planted today, but I ran out of soil (still waiting on Amazon shipment) so I had to plant several of them in smaller pots and will have to transplant them to 5 gal pots when the Happy Frog and Coco Loco arrives. They are in the veg tent for now, but it looks like I'll have plenty of room for them all in the big tent within a week or two. WW#1 and EM#1 got flushed with 6 gallons of ph'd spring water today and will have another day/night to bask in the UVB and deep red lights, then I'll put them in the dark for another day before lovingly hacking them to bits. 😜 EM#2 isn't quite ready yet..various up-close looks at her 14" cola told me that she still has time..probably only about 20-30% cloudy trichromes now, so more Cha Ching for her tomorrow! EM#4 is in a hurry to finish..betting tomorrow will be her last nutrient dose. EM#3 is a slow-poke..maybe two more weeks or more to fully fatten her up. CC#1 is gonna be a quick one for sure..maybe another week or 10 days at most. CC#2 might be 2 more weeks. THURSDAY: Mixed up a 2 gallon batch of early flowering nutes for the CC's and Bush Bitch, 2.5 gallons of late flowering nutes for WW#2, EM#4.. and I decided that EM#2 just isn't ready yet, so she got late flowering nutes as well. The pots on WW#1 and EM#1 were still very heavy, so they were allowed to soak up the reds and UV's for another day to hopefully dry out a little more. FRIDAY: WW#1 and EM#1 are still hoping for a reprieve from the Governor, but it's not looking good for them...their sentences are set to be carried out at dawn. Last night they were stripped down and taken into lights-out solitary confinement to await their execution. They were given no last meal and when asked if they had any final requests, they asked only that they be cremated in a series of small fires spanning a couple of months. 😏

Here we are at the end of the sixth week, friends. I'm starting to feel pessimistic about the challenge of gaining a pound. The buds haven't gained much weight, but we'll see what happens. The indications are 8/9 weeks, so there's still a bit of time.🤞

+ Day 43: 2.25L bottle water EC 0.35 + 0.3ml/L CalMag + Terra Flores 4.5ml/L Final PH 6.13 Day 42: 0.625L bottle water EC 0.35 + 0.3ml/L CalMag + Terra Flores 4.5ml/L Final PH 6.13 Day 41: 2.25L bottle water EC 0.35 + 0.3ml/L CalMag + Terra Flores 4.5ml/L Final PH 6.13 Day 39: 2.25L bottle water EC 0.35 + 0.3ml/L CalMag + Terra Flores 4.0ml/L Final PH 6.13 +

The buds grow pretty well, especially Thelma's ones! They both look really good and the weather is with them 😎 It's hard to take good pictures of Louise's buds because she is very compact and the buds are hidden by the leaves.

Hi all hope everyone doin well and happy easter have a great weekend. I can't believe it,I survived another week without killing me babies 🤣ha. I had 2 problems yesterday don't know how serious it is or will be to plants? My marshydro inline fan stopped working just when I started needed it for the smell but thats typical,its my life in nut shell ha ill have to start charging the owl neighbours for the lovely scent they about to receive 🤣🤣how much do yas reckon is reasonable 100 euro whiff yeah haha.😂was on marshydro about it so hopefully gets sorted soon there customer service straight back on to but was using it to control humidity so ordered a dehumidifier waiting on that now.in mean time that shot up to 85 90 percent,so open flaps on tent over night and then temps dropped to 17 degrees for lights out and continued like that for few hrs then went to 22 degrees and as high as 90 percent in humidity till got home from work all good now 24 degrees 65 humidity but I haven't a clue if I've fucked it all up.please let us know if all OK. They took a massive stretch in last week though and all looking amazing 😍put light up to 100 percent 19 inches praying 🙏 leafs 🍃 so hopefully sweet spot for time being. done a bit of defoliating, bit leaf tucking were I could. sprayed a bit of canna cure jst at lights out.so to me everything looks as good as I could possible make for my first time ever even looking at a plant let alone looking after 2 of them 🤣haha Thanks all for having a look and feedback needed and appreciated wouldn't have got this far without the help ive already received so please keep it coming its badly needed ha. Enjoy plus keep growing and blazing all God knows we bleeding deserve it.ha on to next week when magic starts happening ✨️ 🙏

Smells is starting to form and bud sites is beautifully spaced to fill out nice and big... I have fed them BioBloom and so far they are happy ...
