After only one day germinating, one of the two seeds has sprouted a long root. We will leave them both in the paper towels for another 2 days (when we have time to plant them) and hopefully the other one sprouts in this time.
5 days after germination, the second seed sprouted too. We then planted them in pots with some 'premium soil' and used some NPK at the ratio 2:1:2.
This week the second banana purple punch plant got eaten. we thought the wire and sticks would protect it, but it must have been a rat or something that got in and managed to eat it. so annoying, but the bigger one seems to be going well.
This week the leaves were being eaten by something, so the plant has starting growing upwards rather than outwards. Also the leaves are not as big and bushy as they used to be.
We are pretty sure the plant has entered the flowering stage. It has developed 5 or 6 small colas and it has started to smell weakly when you are close to it. We have rearanged the wire to protect it more as we really do not want it to be eaten now that it is flowering. We are planning to harvest next week
We harvested one little bud this week. Now we have realised that it was probably premature, but the pistils were orange so we just decided to. We are drying it outdoors in a plastic box with a fan attached to a little solar panel. We will harvest more next week, but right now it is not looking good in terms of the harvest.
This week we harvested 2 more buds. We are not 100% sure if theyre ready as this is our first grow, and because we are guerilla growing its hard to tell. Also she has become really really sticky and smelly.
@Tjo4270, Yeah, we knew but we couldnt plant it until the Friday because we didnt have time. We didnt expect them to germinate so quickly to be honest. We have planted them now though.
