10/12/2022 - 29 days since my little girl sprouted from a seed🌱
The fourth week of vegetation my Banana 🍌🍌🍌
Nutrients:
Jungle Indabox - I still add nutrients according to the manufacturer's table, next week I will change the dosage - for buds:
Jungle Urban A: 1.5 ml
Jungle Urban B: 0.5 ml
Jungle Urban M: 1 ml
Hesi: Hesi Root Complex - I use this root stimulator to support the roots and I am satisfied with it 🌴🌴
Atami - ATA Calmag - when growing under LED lights it is recommended to use Calmag and Atami is an excellent brand
Advanced Nutrients: Bud Candy - Nutrients with carbohydrates that plants love 🍭🍬
Training:
Topping - the first training I do in the third week, the girl tolerated it well and was ready for LST the very next day 🌿🌿
LST: First I anchor the lowest branches with metal clips low to the substrate. I tie the higher branches with a string to the paper clips that I have attached to the edge of the textile flower pot. This will direct the branches as I need.
I will repeat the LST again in two days, when the girl grows up and I can already tie other branches 🍃🍃
Defoliation: I rid the girl of all the large leaves that shade the light. I also repeat defoliation several times a week 🌞🌞
Light Cycle:
This week I switched the light cycle to 12/12 so that the plants can prepare for flowering 🌞💡
In general:
Banana is a very strong plant with a strong and sturdy stem that I am surprised how quickly it recovered from the initial nutrient burn. It has many branches, a beautiful, healthy color. He tolerates training well. I expect a big strong plant from her 🌴🌴
Light - vegetation: Mars Hydro TS1000 - a great light that uses white LEDs that better simulate natural light and give plants the nutrients they need 💡💡💡

See you soon 😍
@ChachoGreenCrown, Thank you friend 😊 The light is amazing 💡. I'm changing the light cycle to 12/12 next week, so I'm really looking forward to the buds 🌸🏵️
@Targona, you jinxed me 😆 🤣 I just found a couple bananas 🍌 🍌🍌🍌 on my Orange Sherbert. She is pretty much ready for the chop so I'm sure it's just mother nature doing her thing and trying to make babies any way she can
Plants will make bananas if you leave them to long it's just part of their life cycle when they don't get pollinated and the end is near. Since yours got actual balls it is probably a hermaphrodite this happen either because of genetics or stress of some kind
@Cyrusdavirus, It happened to me for the first time. I first saw such "balls" and already noticed - so I removed them. But within a few days there were yellow bananas everywhere. I hope the other girls in the tent are ok.
@Targona, this was written 4 weeks ago.
I saw that she grew bananas 🍌 😳 that sucks but luckily the bananas that come out of the buds like that NORMALLY don't have a lot of pollen in them so hopefully 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞 you'll only get a handful of seeds
A lot of time I've plucked the bananas off and allowed the plant to finish but some will continue to make more n more bananas
