I was tossing up this week whether or not to top but decided against it as I want to see from my first grow what I can achieve without too much fiddling. I did however remove the bottom pair of nodes on both plants and gently pushed a couple of larger fan leaves underneath stems they were blocking from the light. I also constructed a bit more of a sturdy grow space for them. Dialing in humidity has been challenging this week as it has been rainy and stormy. A couple of weeks ago I was struggling to keep humidity above 40%, now it's a struggle to keep it below 60%. Unfortunately I don't have a dehumidifier nor the money to buy one at the moment. Both the plants are really going for it. The Strawberry Banana has all but caught up to the Haze Berry in terms of node and leaf production and almost caught up in height. It's also started pre-flowering with little white haired pistils forming at the node sites. The Haze Berry on the other hand still appears to be in veg mode. But let's see, I feel like it's on the edge! They both have 6 nodes now. I'm not using any fertilizers at the moment. Just relying on the Biobizz Light Mix Soil and the DynoMyco inoculants I mixed through before planting and 500mls of filtered water p/day. I've been thinking to add some organic veg growth nutrients over the next week and a half to encourage a last growth spurt. I plan to wait to start using Biobizz Bloom until a couple of weeks when the plants are well into their flowering stage so that I avoid jump-starting the process and missing out on valuable growing time. Loving the process so far! Learning a lot and changing a lot as I go. My set-up has come a long way since I started.

Grow Questions

Dakta_Philstarted grow question 2 years ago
Should I defoliate my plants more? I removed the bottom pair of nodes on both plants but they are still quite bushy. I'm hesitant to cause the plants unnecessary stress and negatively impact my yield, so would love any advice. Today is day 27 and they're pre-flowering.

Leave it . You can always take more off once the root mass is established and after the plant has grown more . Unneeded stress at this point . ✌️

I am worried that my Strawberry Banana Auto is a hermaphrodite. I would love if someone could please look at the pictures I uploaded of the balls/sacs at the node sites and confirm whether this is the case or not. It's day 50 and I noticed them yesterday. Cheers.

High bro, this plant is 100% female! The flowers that you see are calyxes and the brown hair stucking out of the calyxes show you that this is a female plant! Your plant is looking amazing! Enjoy your grow buddy.
