It appears the stretch phase for this plant is indeed about two weeks long. We have seen another foot of growth compared to last weeks entry. With basically no growth seen in the past two or three days, it does appear that the stretch phase has ended. Although I will certainly update on height as we keep going. The entire reservoir of the VIVOSUN automatic watering base has been emptying about every two days recently. The plant is thirsty and is taking up all the nutrients we’ve given it. Each time I replaced the reservoir, I’m increasing an additional 3 mL per gallon of Athena Grow A and Grow B. We started at six, then nine, and the watering yesterday was a full 12 mL per gallon. I am still seeing yellowing at the tips of our leaves, about 1 to 2 mm long, which is ideal and indicates that our plant is right on the edge of maximizing its nutrient uptake. Higher nutrients would be recommended if this plant were not potted in live soil. However, the FFOF soil continues to provide sufficient nutrition w/ our augmentation with the Athena nutrients. In an effort to get an idea of the full shape and lifecycle of this plant, we have continued without any stressing techniques on the plant. I have only used some of the lower branches to hold down some of the larger fan leaves to allow for more light to some of the Bud sites, as you can see in the video posted. Overall, we are really excited to be on schedule and to see this explosive plant. I also included a comparison shot of this plant with the Chem diesel X banana daddy auto, which was planted only a couple of days after the plantet of the grapes. It really shows just how fast this plant has grown, and shows why FastBuds is so loved.

Although the yellow appearance this lady has still been growing at the same rate as the rest and shooting out the side branches nicley , she is a week behind the rest due too the first seed not germinating but week by week progress has been the same as the others

She seems to be doing well. Her buds get fatter and more smelly each day. Weather turned a bit cooler. Temps in the day are mid 70s to mid 60s. Nights are in the high 40s mid to upper 50s. So nights would be cold for her. Plus she was getting severe mornings dew. So I bring her in the the garage at night. The temperature in the garage is 70. So she is going to have a warmer night than day. This goes against nature. For some reason I think she will like it. Today I took off all of her LST ropes. My thinking is, she may see the tension as weight. Probably should have taken them off sooner. Bruce Banner strain is a 9 or 10 week flower strain. So I figure she is about half way through flower. Day 100. She has a lot of lower leaves yellowing and falling off. The yellow is starting to move up the branches. This plant is almost all tops. Most coloas are top and 2 nodes under it. There are a few that have 4 or 5 nodes under the top, but they get the light for it. This strain requires a lot of food. This I read from a lot of reviews on the strain. I should have read up the Bruce Banner strain much earlier. Although I think I did a great job with her, considering this was my first serious grow. I did some gorilla growing in my younger days. However I had no idea what I was doing. I use to plant them, give them some water. Then in a few weeks top them and check on them every few days to few weeks. If they were lucky they got some Miracle-Gro. There was not a lot of information on how to grow. I was harvesting way too early. 9/23 1 gallon of water PH 6.2. It's not as hot, so I don't think she needs 2 gallons everyday anymore. Day 100 9/24 Fed 4 tablespoons Foxfarm Big Bloom, 12 ml Foxfarm Tiger Bloom, half a teaspoon Foxfarm Beasti Bloom, 2 tablespoons of Foxfarm Kelp me Kelp you, per 2 gallons of 6.4 PH water. Day 101 9/25 Cloudy day, no need for food or water. Day 102 9/27 Sunny. Made a tea worm castings, poop, some powder baby food and black strap molasses. Also 24 MLs Foxfarm Tiger Bloom, per two gallons. Day 103. Day 103 I see her first orange hairs, just a few. She smells great. She is making some beautiful buds. Very exciting time, she is getting close. She is a short plant, if she were in the ground, she would be about 3 feet tall. She is about 3 and 1/2 feet wide. I had her tied down most of her life. My goal was to keep her as short as I could. I prefer the neighbors not see her. This grow was by design, I wanted her to have as many tops as possible. I bent her branches and did not let them grow straight up. Not sure if I would get more or less if i let the plant grow up. She sure is going to give me many top buds. Either way Im going to have very nice buds. So if there is a weight difference in growing styles I have no way of knowing, until this plant finishes and I grow another style. The weight does not really matter. This will be more bud than I need, for a while.

Alright folks! So this harvest was fantastic! I mean! I’m a happy grower at harvest for any plant! I could harvest one amazing and one meh and be just as happy to cut dry and cure them both! This early miss smoked well and is only about two weeks in cure, this is a rank and musky strain with a whole plethora of combining smells, I find it had a massive pepper and spice hit with almost a food like consistency with its smell, I’m finding a even pine, spice, earthy almost cheesy platform with a fine kick of just a odd but interesting odder I can’t put my thumb on! The density of even the popcorn flower is unreal, rocks all of them. A very light almost desert sandy trichome layer in the interior of the nugs but toward the exterior it’s a lush dark green and red hue with purple calyxes also being seen from the top and Bottom inner and some outer calyxes. The trichome production was very impressive also the fast growth in veg was awesome! But I’m telling you! The big bud genetics and the white widow genetics in this are both prominent, and I love it! I’m saying for a auto it’s pretty potent! And not to say that other autos aren't! We all know they can be pretty Damn amazing! But yeah! The flavour is that of pepper and spice! Pine and a gassy greasy fresh herb blend! I wish I had taken more time to run her though because I believe if I had kept running her, her potency would have been a bit higher and definitely would have achieved a more full couch lock. But over all a easy grow and a dense dense grow. I recommend dropping rh and bringing head up a tad at the end to make those nugs as hard as you can! But that’s my bro advice lol

I forced flower a few days ago i showed that flux works on auto’s Late evening day 27 i hooked her up to the bucket and did Some heavy defo so she is ready for her flowerstretch still going to pin her down for another week to keep her height in check and to open her up for better light penetration and airflow Day 29 recovered nicely and looking amazing again Day 32 further training so she has as much space as she pissibly can and removed all the undergrowth from the branches only keeping the top 2 nodes of every branch in think still half of next week that i might be able to do a very late training but only time and enviroment can block the way of the dominatrix to get to her subjects

High, Here is the really last update until you ( and also me) will see it again in ~6-12 days.🀞🏽 At this point I'm pretty happy and really excited. Hopefully around 22° are not too much and it still will taste nice.

Hey now! So after 8 days of drying, and 6 days of curing, I just tried the Sour Diesel in a glass water pipe, and she is freaking amazing. She burns nice and slow, with thick clouds of smoke, and tastes exactly like she should, like a sour/citrus/fuel with a very nice aftertaste. I ended up with less than 20% of wet weight, but I am so ecstatic with the quality, I could freaking care less! I have a fantasy football draft on Saturday night, and I can't wait for the rest of my league to sample her! I had so much fun with this grow, from constructing the watering/draining system, to learning more about photography and video, to meeting everyone in this community, and finally to smoking Nugs that I actually grew! Until next time, be safe everyone, and Blaze On!!!

As December is near the growth is slower than would like but is still thriving with more stretching happening for the side branches and the mini side branches start to stretch as well one side branch I recently topped is recovering and can see development at a decent rate hoping for some start of pre flowering signs within the week or 2 she’s really been stretching outwards I lollipop some of the weaker underdeveloped branches so can focus more energy on the healthier parts of the plant
