I didn't pay much attention to them this week. I coated the rotting plugs with a azos and mycos mixture then transferred them into pint cups of my potting mix

Petty good. I repotted at the end of the week into 3 gallon fabric pots. I could give a good image of the roots. I think the mykos and azos are working out just fine. Second top this coming week.

Great week with steady growth. I didn't top my last grow so I decided to top them to keep them low and bushy. They've been topped twice so far and seem to be responding ok

This week most of the bottom branches evened out with the topped branches. The mushroom straw and top crop has become a intertwined mat and the soils alive!! They look like they're ready to take off!!

Getting bushy and starting to stretch out. They're so compact and tight😀 I boosted the ec this week to prepare for the growth spurt that seems to be coming. Short spade shaped leaves. Lush green and all of the bottom branches have stretched and evened out with the main topped branches. No problems so far any I'm happy.

Filled in nicely after all cropping was done.Mostly the bottom and midsection show great development. I've had them on a 16 hr schedule for a few weeks I think I'll flip the lights to 13/11 tonight. Trying something different in lowering the daylight time gradually to a final end of flowering light/dark of 10/14.

They dried out at the beginning this week but they were ok. I flipped the lights to 12 in the middle of the week after I top dressed with alfalfa meal. They started growing really fast after about 3 days. 🤩

This week I saw rapid growth The plays seem to be taking the high ec very well. They don't really have any smell yet. Some of the branches grow horizontally into the other plants at the same time the plants that grow like this aren't stretching up. I guess those are bushier pheno. Looks like they're going to be heavy. So far so good 😊

I saw lots of development this week. I've top dressed with bat guano and alfalfa meal this grow to fortify the soil. They seem to like the advanced nutrients so far as well. It's getting a little smelly in the tent💪🏾

Grew well and so far there's no pests. I think they're growing on schedule with no stunt so far. I think they should start packing on weight next week. We will see. All Good!

Good week everyone. I started off with another top dress with 0-10-0 fruit bat guano. Yummy!! I saw lots of growth outward not upward because the stretch has almost stopped. This is a very fast growing strain with a strong smell. The smell is amazing. It's swell yet musky. I guess it's like a banana, hope the buds are like bananas also😀

They're fattening up pretty well. I didn't do anything different than last week as far as nutrient levels. They really like to eat. I'm growing with 100w less light for this grow so the outer corner plants are suffering a little but still good. 💪🏾

Hello fellow farmers. Nothing special this week just consistent growth. I tell y'all there were no problems at all with this strain from the beginning of veg and throughout flower cycle so far. The strain gorilla banana eats good and grows very steady with slightly moist soil that's Top dressed with Alfalfa meal and high phosphorus fruit bat guano. They like the steady supply of nutrients and the buds are getting much denser. I can't wait to enjoy these lovely plants. These ladies seem to be getting ready to be harvested in a week or two.

Starting to flush and still getting a little more dense. Yellowing leaves on a couple but still have a couple that haven't lightened up any yet. Color is mostly cloudy about 5 percent amber.

This was a growing for dummies strain with pretty good indica body high. I really didn't have to do anything extra or special. I highly recommend this strain if you like high yielding indicas with a pretty good body high. The taste is above average sweet and spicy and I can't forget that musky banana hint on the exhale. Smell is sweet stanky banana musk. High yielder 168g of quality buds with another solid 84g of lows for extract.
