RQS Mimosa auto on the right(1 plant) takes up half the tent. 2 Fat banana autos on the left side.

I'll try to update through harvest and then start from seed on next grow.

 

[driver77]

Harvested the tops off the Fat Bananas at day 73.
Day 75 and the monster Mimosa still has weeks to go. The bottom buds on the Fat Bananas can go a week or more to ripen up a bit.

 

[driver77]

Day80 the Mimosa is trying to take over the whole tent...had to help with some bud support.
front and side views

 

[driver77]

Harvested at day 86...going to be well over a lb for the Mimosa....the Fat Bananas yielded about 3/4lb dry.
New girls are in! Red Strawberry Banana from Sweetseeds......advertised as being ready at 7-8 weeks from cotyledons. Sprouted on the 25th....

I managed to kill a seedling trying to free a stuck cotyledon. Had some Tropicanna Poison XL autos started so just stuck one in there. The 3 in the middle are waiting for their tent to open and are the Tropicannas also. Lower right pot has the new seedling.

 

[driver77]

I dropped a 3gal bag on another poor Red Strawberry Banana ......so both plants on the right are the Tropicana Poisons now. You can see how much faster the one on bottom right has grown than the 2 that are/were in soil above it.
Upped the ppm to 1000

A week later and we're off to the races. Seeds I planted in soil have popped the surface finally!

 

[driver77]

Day 26
Bottom right plant got stem rot so had to put another seedling in. I need to rethink using the peat starter plugs. Everybody else is doing fine.

 

[driver77]

Day 30 for the big girls on left...25 for upper right...20 for new girl. Lights are turned up now...had them down to help new girl but couldn't sacrifice 3 to help 1 any longer.

 

[driver77]

Front left is finally starting to stretch. Front right is finally starting to grow lol she better hurry or there's not going to be much space left. I can see the red starting to come into buds on 2 rear plants.

Day 39 for big girls. Last 3 are of the Red Strawberry Banana left rear

Sweet looking plants. Am on my second grow with the Air Cubes myself and loving it. Ran Hempys for 10 years prior and have to say I'm amazed.

Amazing difference in just 5
Days

Looks like I got 1 red tall pheno and 1 green shorter pheno from the Red Strawberry Banana's and at least 1 red from the Tropicanna poisons....the other TP is finally in preflower and growing.

Beeeautifuuull!

 

[driver77]

Closer looks at the 2 furthest along. These 2 might actually finish in the time Sweetseeds predicted!(7-8weeks from cotyledon) Now I started counting when first leaves were out so not quite on time and probably be more immature than I would prefer but harvestable maybe....they have 2 more weeks...... we shall see
This is the RSB

 

[driver77]

Here's the TP

 

[driver77]

The RSB left rear is still stacking nicely

. TP front right is finally in the game.
