I skipped a week cause it just keeps growing and swelling. A few days ago the branches started falling over. I couldn't find half the plant. So instead of ignoring it I decided to stake this plant up. Great smells, definitely seems like a winner. Other plants will have a hard time competing against this blue cheese. Earlier this week I let this plant dry out for a day to stress it a little. The yellow leaves are from too much light and the drought stress. I expected similar heights from the plants but as you can see the difference is huge.😊

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 ✨🍀✨✌️💚

Wow she is huge. Flowers are everywhere and all very very frosty. Buds are getting taller and fatter with each day. I'm trying to balance her feeds as I have some bug issues and I don't want overly wet soil ATM so I have been feeding from the bottom letting her roots soak it all up. Predators arrive in the week but they seem to be leaving this one alone and picking on her 4 daughters instead. Temps at night are becoming an issue so will deploy my green house heating tube to try and keep temps near 20 at night. Was 15c last night.... I hope for more growth through this week. Can't believe she is so fat already and only halfway through flower.. Thanks for looking. Stay safe😷😷😷 Happy growing.🌱🌿🌱

23.08 The Drainmaster moved into the tent to control the drain. Defoliated and lollipopped them. 25.08 First run with the drain system. Nutrient Solution (Tank): Volume: 8.5 L EC: 3.05 pH: 5.5 Nutrients: Advanced Nutrients Micro/Grow/Bloom + CalMag Irrigation Run: Pump time: 30 minutes Total Drain: 5.0 L (≈ 60%) Drain EC: 2.6 Drain pH: 6.0 🔎 Observations Drain volume was far too high (target is ~20%). Drain EC lower than input EC → medium was relatively “empty”, plants absorbed nutrients quickly. pH drift from 5.5 → 6.0 shows some buffering effect left in the reused substrate, but limited. Substrate behaves more like coco than soil now (low buffer, fast response). 💡 Insight / Lesson Learned 30 minutes pump time is way too long → resulted in 60% runoff instead of 20%. For 8 × 1 L pots, a single irrigation event should be ~1.0–1.2 L total, with ~200–250 ml runoff. Solution: shorten pump time to ~5 minutes and re-test runoff. Better approach: run shorter, more frequent irrigations (daily) with a lower EC (2.0–2.2), instead of heavy feedings (EC 3.0) only 3× per week. This will keep EC more stable in the root zone and prevent salt buildup in the tiny 1 L pots. 27.08 Adjusted the pump timer to 5 minutes, gave the first dose of PK13/14.

Nothing happened this week, was basically just drying. Trimmed her less than her "sister", took 1 day longer to dry BUT also is a bit dry-er with the bovedas now fighting too keep the RH up.

Hey guys, late into week 5 finally have some time to tend to the gals. It's been almost a week since I last watered them. We had 2 thunderstorms roll in so that kept the ladies quenched but when i went to check them out today most of them were pretty dry. Before I watered them, I topped off the soil level with some more promix hp and started our first topdressing. As usual 2tbs per gal @ 70/30 ratio of 444 to 284. I'm my case 21tbs to 9tbs. After that I water them with 50mL of molassas in 5gal of dechlorinated water with each plant raking about 3L of water. I also defoliated some under growth and to clean up the canopy to allow more light to penatrate prime grow sites. Last week I noticed some fungus gnats flying around, so I put up yellow fly traps with bamboo skewers (best way imo). I also did a preventive maintenance and watered the girls last week with neem oil soil drench to kill off any larvae or eggs that may have been laid. So good so far, as the traps did not have many gnats on them. Other than the usual pm items done, the ladies are taking off quite fast, so I need to stay ontop of things when I can! Hope to see you on the next update!

The stretch has started. Very manageable since they started flower on the shorter side. Some adjustment to feeding and a good leaf striping mid week. Pheno number 1 has broad leaves and a very tight node spacing compared to the other four. Number 3 has shown to be very vigorous in growth and cloning. Number 2 is the runt and slow but stinks. The others are very similar. The girls got fed after the leaf strip the next day they looked really happy.

*WEEK 1 DAY 6 OF FLOWER* Flipped the light to 12/12 6days ago and started scrogging I also gave her quite a huge defol 5days after the switch for better light penetration and airflow, for the first week everday ill be checking on the canopy any tops that are growing too tall compared to others will be trained underneath the scrog net, resulting in even light penetration throughout the whole canopy giving lower buds better light and of course the main reason - keeping the plants small :) started to implement the boost additives to boost K intake and i have also added a exhale co2 bag above the canopy to hopefully boost the co2 levels and promote faster, better growth! the deficiency i mentioned in the last week of veg, is not looking to get worse or worsening hmmmm strange effected leaves have been removed and overall she looks great! i dont wanna get to ahead of myself yet! as we still have a long way to go, but for my first run as from up to know i am pretty happy with myself and the growth of plant, i see so many growers with basic and even really bad deficiencys/diseases from early growth! even throughout there whole growth cycle... yes i have noticed a few weird things throughout the cycle but nothing extreme no NPK deficiencys so i am really pleased with this run! roll on the next ;) Wish me further look guys, Lets Grow!

Here we are week 4 of veg and there just showing there pistels here our 2 gsc are really taking on vigorous growth so very pleased with these I will ask our @ grizzly-cannabis-seeds.co.uk what breeder they are i suspect there the bakery seed company. Now we had our 1st 100% success germination go tits up more so hydro store not sending rite stuff delaying me corsing me stress subsequently forgot about them for whole day and note so thenly fella behind so our purple lemonade is a recovered 1 and has been struggling to hit water 💧 so its been dip feed for 4 weeks now and is already stated to show her colours. Our 2 bloody skunk k autos we didn't expect much now im not 1 to put a breeder sown but the 3 packs we had were poor after 4 runs now just nor good nor strong won't use them again. They are slowly coming along if I need to cull I will. As for our auto purple kush alos a mystery breeder she is also taking very well to lst and is vigorous in growth. Nutrients/ @indica nutrients @dan indica nutrients On 2 part feed system on grow schedule D as pose to C so we can see the Afghan nectar in action • Along with triple activity  and with resin and smell enhancer

8' semaine de floraison pour mes Appel Fruiter, la fin approche. J'espère 2 semaine max encore . Huuuumm !!!! J'adore l'odeur de pomme qu'elles dégage . La couleur des trichlom sont cohérent avec mon planning , B2 sera récolté en première. B1 continue de grossir légèrement. Cette semaine le rinçage continue. Elles ont 78 jours de 50 de floraison. Les réglages culture lumière et environnementale resteront inchangé pour le moment. Merci les Growmies qui me suivent ✌️ Bonne croissance à vous les p'tites ✋️ vertes 🌱🌞🌱

Hoping by the end of this week to see a decent bit of vegative growth. I also had a boost in growth after sprouting but has slowed down decently. Plants leaves started drooping down and one edge of leaf turned a lighter green, leaves also look wrinkled, but don’t feel dry. I was advised it was nothing to be concerned of but I want other opinions. Also started a little LST today 2/15/24

Going to pull her out of the light tonight and put her into darkness. Very happy with the way she turned out!!

final week of feed before flush. show plants height outside tent shots as well. humidity randomly dropped to 20's which im happy with at end of flower as i hear increases potency and resin production. smell starting to come thru door of tent. but not out the exhaust (carbon filtered)

I'm very happy about how the buds have developed in this 2nd week of flower! The girl stretched a lot this week, about 15cm. The bud sites are a bit too close to each other, but I can't do much about it now, I will have to put up to the extra work when harvesting. She gets fed 6 times a day and she drinks a looot, about 2,8l per day 😮 I'm doing a flush today, the first one, to get the roots rinsed out of any accumulated salts.
