Wanted a banana strain and finally was able to get my hands on one of them :) Don't know much about the breeder but hoping for some good banana flavors ! 😁
14/08
She sprouted after 30 hours in the jiffy pallet. Kept her covered to ensure high humidity.
Week 1 (15/08-21/08)
15/08
She been growing good ! Feeding her with pH tap water until now
17/08
Transplanted her in a 0.65 plastic cup. Added some mycorrhizae into the coco coir to promote some root growth
Added fertilizer at very low EC into the mix
19/08
She responded well to the transplant, can see some root growth through the plastic glass. Good signs ! 🙌
Added some silica to the mix. EC is around 380-400.
21/08
Root continued growth and will be transplanting her to final pot in maybe 2 days !
Week 2 (22/08 - 28/08)
22/08
Slightly increased EC to 450-500
24/08
Transplanted her to her final 3 gal fabric pot ! Added some mycorrhizae during transplant to encourage some fat roots 👏
EC around 500-550
26/08
Have added some seaweed extract (low levels) to the solution mix
Week 3 (29/08 - 04/09)
31/08
She is growing good, have increased EC to around 500. Will be starting to LST her this week
03/09
Some good side branch growth, she is pretty stacked this one ! each nods not for from eachother 😜
Week 4 (05/09 - 11/09)
05/09
Started to LST her, she responded very well to it and can tart seeing some side branch stretching 😊
EC around 500-550
06/09
Continued to LST, trying to get those side branches up ! 😶
She is responding well, did some minor defoliation to ease light penetration
09/08
Did some pinching and bending on the top part of main branch.
Allows me to bend the middle bud sight. This helps side branch to stretch, she recovers in a couple of hours so got to do it couple of times a day 👊
Week 5 (12/09 - 18/09)
13/09
Nothing much to say, she been growing by herself ! Been gently bending the top of main branch everyday (2, 3 times a day)
Increased EC to around 650
15/09
Hope she will go into flower during beginning of next week, seems like this one will be takin her time 💪
18/09
Toped her at the 7th node 😊 hoping to make her bushier
Week 6 (19/09 - 25/09)
22/09
She been growing good, definetly pre-flowering now, got white pistils poppin 😄
Will be changing her nutrients to the flowering one pretty soon
Week 8 (03/10 - 09/10)
04/10
Been trying to cut all lower branches as want her to focus on upper buds growth
Looking like she will stretch a bit more before going into flowering
07/10
Going into flower, smell not so much for now
Week 9 (10/10 - 16/10)
12/10
She starting to get frosty ! And she starts to give a smell, not too strong for now 😛
14/10
Buds getting fatter and frostier
Week 11 (24/10 - 30/10)
25/10
Start seeing first amber pistils, she smells more as well !
28/10
Much more amber pistils almost 40% id say
Will be starting to flush her pretty soon
Week 12 (31/10 - 06/11)
31/10
Been watering her with pH water at 5.9 no more nuts
04/11
Start to see some amber trichomes, she pretty much ready will wait few more days before chopping her !
Week 13 (07/11 - 13/11)
07/11
Definitely the last week ! Have started to cut some branches and drying them
08/11
Took pictures after little haircut, can see the buds a bit better
Strong genetics ! The buds look nice and dense ! Very frosty and have this tropical aroma to it ! Didn't get the banana taste like expected but buds have a nice tropical flavor to them and got that punch hit feeling ! Close to those punch strains
Overall happy with the results ! Buds look good, taste is great and yield is good (even if wished for a bit higher haha)
Good for night time use, strong but tasty stuff just love it ! The more it stays in the jar the tastier they get
Had a great time growing her ! She took around 14 weeks to finish a bit longer than autos Ive grown but worth the wait ! The smell wasn't too strong, recommended strain for beginner ! Had no problem topping it and she didn't need much attention. She could have used a better defoliation next time. She was quite leafy a bit longer for the trimming but all good !
