This Banana Purple Punch Auto growlog chronicles the plant's journey from germination to curing, spanning 83 days. The grower meticulously prepared a reused living soil mix and transplanted the seedling into a 7-gallon bag. Throughout the vegetative and flowering stages, the plant received consistent watering and nutrient feeding, with adjustments made to lighting intensity and environmental parameters as growth progressed. Low-Stress Training (LST) was employed to manage canopy height and encourage even bud development. The grower noted a slight fade in the later stages, which was addressed with supplemental nutrients. Ultimately, the plant was harvested and entered the drying and curing phases, yielding 75.8 grams.

Notes
Reusing living soil from my last grow, moving from a 5 gal bag to a 7 gal bag. Recipe: Prepped my reused 5 gal soil (including roots), adding: 1.5 qt pumice (aeration), 1.5 gal (about 7 qts) Coast of Maine Stonington soil, 2 cups worm castings, 1 cup charged biochar, ½ tbsp gypsum, 2 tbsp Mykos (mycorrhizae), 1 tbsp Azos, 1 tbsp CoM Kelp Meal, 2 tbsp CoM Stonington Blend Plant Food, 2 tbsp Stoned Dust Mixed soil in a big bucket (20 gal). I dropped in a moisture sensor, she was at 25%. I added and mixed in 2 liters of RO/spring mix. Let it soak in overnight, mixed it up again in the morning, then filled a 7 gal Rain Science bag, embedding a moisture sensor in the soil. Added water to bring soil moisture to 45%. I also used a 24 oz drinking cup as a spacer for the Seed Starter seed bad. That sat for about 2 weeks. I removed that spacer cup, dusted the hole with Mykos, then filled it with CoM Sprout Island Seed Starter.

I started with 250 ml of my RO/spring water mix in the tray, continuing the maintenance on the pot, based on how quickly the pot sucked it up tells me it was needed… also added 20 ml in about a 2” ring around the plant.
Gave her the 20 ml around the seedling as I’ve been doing, but felt it time to start adding some ‘maintenance’ doses to the pot so it doesn’t get too dry, added 200 ml around the outer perimeter. Included a first dose of silica in that watering. She’s looking strong, moving her to veg…

She’s doing fine this evening, dribbled 15 ml RO water at about a 2” radius… measured DLI at 14.9.
Dribbled 10 ml of RO water at about a 1” radius.
I’m setting up for ‘summer hours’… lights out at 1:00 pm, back on at 7:00 pm… lights out during hottest part of the day… going to be in the 90’ next few days… summer is here…
Dribbled 10 ml of RO water in about a 1” radius around her.
This morning I planted the seed about a 1/4 inch deep, gave the area a spray of RO water and covered it with a dome. Set my light to 1 at 12”, at this point primarily as a heat source. Other environment parameters shown in pics.
