12/12/2022 - 37 days since my little girl sprouted from a seed🌱
Fifth week of my Banana 🍌🍌🍌
Nutrients:
Jungle Indabox - This week I adjust the dose of nutrients to support flowering and add nutrients - flowering stimulators:
Jungle Urban A: 0.5 ml
Jungle Urban B: 1.5 ml
Jungle Urban M: 1 ml
Flower stimulators:
Jungle Environ X: 1ml
Advanced Nutrients - Bud Candy 2 ml
Hesi Root Complex - 5 ml - the last week of adding this nutrient
Atami - ATA Calmag - when growing under LED lights it is recommended to use Calmag and Atami is an excellent brand, I give the same as in vegetation: 0.5ml.
Lights: I don't change Bloom light, I still use Mars Hydro TS1000 - 150w full spectrum, great light for use in both vegetation and flowering 💡💡
Light cycle: I switched the lighting to 12/12 so that the plant could bloom 🌸🌸
Training:
Big defoliation, I removed a lot of big leaves 🍃 from the whole plant so the girl could breathe and let the light shine on her 🌞💡
LST: Again, I had to attach the branches to the sides of the pot - many more grew, some needed a firmer attachment.
In general:
The girl grew by 10 cm in a week, although she is not going to flower yet, I count preflowering in a week and that is the time when the girls grow in height. Otherwise, the girl is beautiful, full of strong, thick leaves, colored beautifully in green. Even after a big defoliation and a strong LST, she recovered beautifully 😊💓

@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
