Hand Watering still EC 2.0 canna coco A&B pH. 5.5-5.8Seedlings 50% 24-30 inches above PPFD 250 calmag given 1ml/l on day 11

The plant have visible nutritions problem, nitrogen's over and maybe K's deficency, this is my first cycle so I gladly accept suggestions.

UPDATE: Day 2 of week 9 Saturday 17th October: Nutes in today and more LST. Defo running out of space, so LST is proving more tricky and stems are less bendy now and much easier to crease! I’m tempted to not try too much more teasing of the plant and purely work on light height from here on in.. I don’t wanna mess up all my hard work by trying to force the plants too hard, damage them and stress them out. Other than that all looking great and pistils coming through lovely 😊 UPDATE- Day 4 of week 9: Monday 19th October Nutes in again. Increased the BioBizz Top Max this week to 3ml/l so let’s see how they respond. One girl looks like she’s a little slower than the others but other than that happy days. Oh and the crease I made in the main stem on one of my ladies last watering, doesn’t seems to have suffered any for it thankfully.. UPDATE: Day 6 of week 9 Wednesday 21st October; Nutes in and a little defoliation. Have a mild case of thrips, so I’m concerned about what products to use as I’m now in the 3rd week of flower and don’t want to spoil the buds or taste.. Argh! Since putting in the dehumidifier temps have soared which is what’s causing the thrips.. Gonna use the cardboard box method for the dehumidifier to get it out the tent, just need to pickup an aluminium hose and ducting tape. Pretty pissed as I’ve had such a smooth ride up till now. Really don’t wanna spoil my first grow. Thinking some Neem oil may help but worried about spoiling the buds ☹️ Happy growing peeps! 💚✌️🏼

Not a lot to update the seedlings have came up out the soil at this point they are still to small to tell any visible differences. I started all the seeds from all 10 packs and and I put 26 of them in soil I now have about 20 of them left I still have atleast one left if every strain. I just kept the 20 plants that all started off at the same time it’s so much easier when there is not some plants behind from the rip. In a few days I will pick out the best one from each of the 10 strains and toss the rest so sad there is a plant count here.

Hi all 🧑‍🌾 Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update. Hope everyone keeping well and having a great week😁 Thank you so much for so much support on this bananas ride 🙏💜💚💜💚 Everything still going pretty well. Girls are developing and stretching like crazy. Athena currently Dec 14 90cm and main stem of Xena is not far of this height either. Unfortunately noticed first signs of calcium deficiency(my opinion) on Athena. Thankfully started feeding both girls with calmag weeks back but the dosage wasn't not enough for Athena. Started small treatment very next day on Dec 11 (see description below) I belive got my baby back on right track. Week 9 Dec 11-17 Dec 11 Watering was planned for Tuesday but due to calcium deficiency decided for a little treatment. Watered both girls with mixture of reduced content of growth nutes by 50% calmag at 1.2 ml per ltr. Reduced solution PH to 6.2 as apperently it's ideal for calcium consumption. Over period 4h I have watered Athena with 5ltr with couple runoffs. Xena 3ltr. Total of 7-10 leaves affected mainly at top colas close to the light. Dec 12-13 Purely observation and all looking well. Of course all affected leaves will progres of showing signs but good news is that growth and development booming and don't see any new leaves with symptoms. Very nice trichomes development in recent days and more and more colours. Dec 14 Second watering for this week 6.5l Increased calmag to 1.4ml per ltr and if still things will be looking well reduce to 1 or 1.2 on next feeding. Dec 15 Very nice respond on yesterday feeding. They definitely fatten over night and getting more and more frosty. Will need to remove some foliage soon as getting extremely bushy again. Dec 17 Xenas main stem top cola almost touched the light today. Tied her to left side of the cabinet, applied selective defoliation on both girls, tied few branches to netting and on the end of this busy day a third watering for this week. 7 ltrs beetwen both. Runoffs Xena PH6.4 Athena 6.3. Very nice week have to say. I belive that calcium deficiency on Athena is no longer a case here and both girls developing very nicely. Both are still stretching, buds are gaining in size and both girls started exploding with trichomes, Thank you all again for such amazing support 🙏peace and love brothers and sisters ✌️💚💜💚💜💚 Stay tuned for new week update 😉🧑‍🌾✌️💚

This strain is very heterozygous. 4 seeds were started. The 4 phenos were very different. I saved 2 of those phenos for my arsenal, which is quite exceptionnal. I ususally save just one pheno from a strain. The Pheno #1 was mainly sativa (75%). Long branches. Lots of fluffy buds. The more resistant to mold, but it has to be with the fluffiness. The taste was cheesy and spicy, which has nothing to see with the 3 other phenos. Not a single ressemblance with ak-47 parents as well. It shares the musky undertones of the strain, but nothing else. That pheno is gone. Not enough potential. Terpene profile was deceiving, just as the cannabinoid content. The Pheno #2 has more indica in it (45% indica). robust and tall plant with dense heavy buds. No mold resistance at all. Biggest producer. The taste was earthy and musky with hints of wood. That pheno is gone. Not enough potential. The Pheno #3 is my favorite one. It reminded me of the good old Ak-47, with her flowery/sweet/skunky smell and taste. Pure nostalgia! Tall and quite robust plant with huge fluffy buds coated with trichomes. She grows pretty similar to Lemon Skunk if you know the reference. Great producer of top quality buds. So sticky! In my top 3 sativa for 2 years. The aroma is very close to the old school Ak-47: sweet, flowery and skunky. It tastes like sweet lemon on the inhale, with a sharp touch of spicy lavender and earth on the exhale. IMO, that is the pheno we want to save from that heterozygous strain. Backcrossing this one would be a very good idea. The Pheno #4 is just as interesting as my favorite #3. The only issue with this one is about mold resistance. Crazy compact and heavy budst! One of the most productive I’ve ever seen too. More traits of the Ak-47 in the aromatic profile, but nothing like the #3. On the structure side, we can immediately recognize the sturdy and bushy structure of Ak-47. THC content is very high too. I suspect the CBD content to be high as well. The effect is a mood elevation, with good focus and a deep body relaxation; a bit similar to what White widow does. The aroma is earthy and pungent. Very skunky and musky. It tastes very sweet and earthy on the inhale, with hints of skunk on the exhale. That pheno #4 expresses the best traits of the Ak-47 in its structure, while pheno #3 kept the aromatic profile.

Sorry I didn’t upload week 5 Ngl it was a bad week i suffocated 4 plants I had to defoliate some leaves because of nutrient defeincies making the plant look diseased I managed to pull through there back healthier again I got a few yellow spots but there goint but other then them 4 there’s some nice bud and bud spots really starting to come through excuse the 4 shittier looking plants and the defoliated skimpy one! Other then those problems that I have resolved I’m happy again last week not so this week happy!!! It’s all trial and error first go I haven’t trained any plants I will do on my next grow definitely!

The plant is thriving as it enters its 11th week of flowering. The buds have developed beautifully, and they’re giving off a sweet, lemony aroma that fills the grow space. It’s a scent that’s both refreshing and promising, making me excited for the final product. At this stage, everything looks great, and I’ve decided to start flushing the plant with clear water only. This should help remove any residual nutrients and ensure a smoother, cleaner smoke. I’m planning to continue flushing for the next one to two weeks before harvesting. I’m really looking forward to seeing how this plant turns out. The buds are dense and sticky, and if the smell is any indication, the end result should be amazing. Can’t wait to see how she finishes!

Day 70 Well things have really turned around this last week. The buds are hard. They have gotten significantly firmer since flushing. The smell is super potent of tropical, sweet citrus. It and the others are too much for my old carbon filter to handle. I have another ordered. So now I’m just watering when dry til the trichomes are ready and watching the colors change!!! Happy Growing 🌱👍🏻

Fed her some bloom nutrients, she took it nicely. I will continue to feed her nitrogen into the third week also.

Hi there, She is doing good so far. Topped her today at day 12. Exited to see if my pheno will be a purple one :) Have a nice day! Adding Progress pictures the next days.

This is my first grow ever I forgot to add more photos of other plants on next update I will have all photos!! I am doing everything organic, I am using compost soil from my cattle and other top soil I have been composting for awhile now. I am also using earth worm castings… I also have earthworms in the pot with the plants.. seem like all plants have ton of white hairs coming out now I don’t know what that means but I am learning as I go!!

a lot of rain and little sun does not allow the girl to be happy, but it will stop soon:) the girl's leaves are already huge, the girl still has a lot of vegetation time left, so she will grow and I think she will be really big:).

Laughing Buddha – Blütewoche 2 Die zweite Blütewoche markiert einen kleinen Wendepunkt. Der Stretch scheint sich nun langsam dem Ende zuzuneigen und die Pflanze konzentriert sich zunehmend auf die eigentliche Blütenentwicklung. Mit rund 53 Trieben, die bereits das dritte Netz erreicht haben, ist das Kronendach inzwischen nahezu vollständig aufgebaut. Einige weitere Spitzen liegen nur knapp darunter und werden in den kommenden Tagen ebenfalls vom Netz gestützt werden. Damit ist die Grundlage für eine gleichmäßige Blütenfläche geschaffen. In dieser Woche wurde die Lichtintensität noch einmal leicht erhöht. Statt der ursprünglich angepeilten 850 PPFD liegt die Beleuchtung nun bei etwa 920–930 PPFD. Die Laughing Buddha reagiert darauf ausgesprochen positiv. Es zeigen sich keinerlei Anzeichen von Lichtstress oder Überdüngung. Die Blätter präsentieren sich in einem satten Grün, die Triebe sind kräftig und vital und das gesamte Erscheinungsbild wirkt ausgesprochen gesund. Auch das Klima konnte über die gesamte Woche hinweg sehr stabil gehalten werden. Die Temperaturen bewegten sich überwiegend im gewünschten Bereich, während die Luftfeuchtigkeit kontinuierlich weiter reduziert wurde. Dadurch stieg der VPD-Wert im Tagesverlauf zeitweise deutlich an, was für diese frühe Blütephase durchaus erwünscht ist. Trotz sommerlicher Außentemperaturen blieb das Klima insgesamt erstaunlich konstant. Die Bewässerung wird inzwischen hervorragend durch die Bodensensoren unterstützt. Die Bodenfeuchtigkeit zeigt einen gleichmäßigen Verlauf mit klaren Trocken- und Bewässerungszyklen, ohne extreme Schwankungen. Auch die Bodentemperatur blieb stabil und der Boden-EC zeigt, dass weiterhin ausreichend Nährstoffe verfügbar sind. Dieses Zusammenspiel sorgt dafür, dass die Pflanze kontinuierlich arbeiten kann, ohne unnötigen Stress zu erfahren. Besonders erfreulich ist der Zustand unterhalb des Kronendachs. Das konsequente Lollipopping der vergangenen Wochen zahlt sich nun sichtbar aus. Unter dem Blätterdach herrscht viel Luft und Platz, wodurch die Luftzirkulation deutlich verbessert wird. Gleichzeitig kann die Pflanze ihre gesamte Energie auf die oberen Blütenstände konzentrieren. An den Blüten selbst zeigen sich inzwischen deutlich mehr Blütenhaare und die ersten kleinen Blütenbüschel beginnen sich zu verdichten. Noch steht die eigentliche Massebildung erst bevor, doch genau hier beginnt nun die Phase, auf die während der langen Vegetationszeit hingearbeitet wurde. Die Struktur wirkt sehr vielversprechend und die zahlreichen gleichmäßig verteilten Tops lassen auf eine beeindruckende Blütenfläche hoffen. Insgesamt fühlt sich dieser Grow bislang außergewöhnlich rund an. Viele kleine Optimierungen aus den vergangenen Durchgängen greifen nun ineinander – vom SCROG über die Sensorik bis hin zur Klimaführung. Die Pflanze vermittelt den Eindruck, dass sie ihr volles Potenzial ausschöpfen kann. Jetzt heißt es vor allem Geduld bewahren und sie Woche für Woche arbeiten lassen. Die Erwartungen bleiben bewusst realistisch, doch die Vorfreude auf die kommenden Wochen ist größer denn je.

This week has been amazing! Everyone is thriving and we are getting ready for flowering! The smell is increasing, and over the last 4 day the have shot up almost another foot! I've also found out that splitting up my feedings into 3 smaller feedings for the week works best!
