No nutrients will be added till week 2 or possibly 3. Soon as she surpasses her baby leaves I'll start to drip feed 3 times a week. Under 250w hid. Domed for humidity.

The Fat Banana - RQS was not lying!!! For a slow starter she sure did climb. I've lst'd her sides down more. Bit damn she loves it. This is the first plant with long internodes I've had, but already looking by far the best. Purple calyx already. Starting to see her sweat too 🤤 love it. Wow can she stretch, now she has hit flowering I'm hoping I can keep her tame 😍

OK so I've hit week 2 of flower stage. She has finished pre flower and bud sites are forming. Looking sooooo good, smelling sweet already. The deep purple is amazing and the best I've ever grown so far even in this early stage I can tell she's going to be a phenomenal taste. What I have done to prepare for flower: Added a cane, to later support side branches. Using atm to tame main colar as I'll need to keep bending back and forth now to keep inside tent 🤦‍♂️😂. I have noticed a slight overfeed sign, end of leaf tips turning a bright yellow but only the very tips. So I have reduced Base nutes and raised pH to 6.2 now. Start of this week I noticed it stopped and she has started to return to pump out fan leaves. I may need additional advice / support on how to tame a main color this late into it, as I'm running out of ideas 😅. So day 11 flower. Lst working well allowed alot more room for buds to grow, she has accepted it nicely too. Look at the development daily 🤤😍 Happy growing everyone 😎💚🏆

D15- Week 3 flower on this gorgeous deep purple and pink fat banana, Royal queen seeds you have out done yourselves, whatever pheno I have got👀 thank you. The flipping state of her 😂💪💚 Tall, thick, juicy, sweating out like f#£& all over, even her top fans are starting to become be dazzling. The smell... Wow!! Like a sweeeeet sherbert at the moment, hopefully a banana kicks it but I'm grateful no mater as I like candy and gas strains. The colours are phenomenal my phone does no justice. Day 18 flower - updated pics. Looking phenomal and banana smell now pungently punching through with the sweet sherbert (feed day) Love this plant 💚💚🏆

She continues to swell this week. The stretch was alot to deal with, with I am overall very impressed with Royal Queen Seeds this pheno is incredible. The smell of banana is really coming through now, vibrant pink and purple and green plant. Smells like a sweet sherbert still too. Feeding every other water still she loves it. Ill try take her to 10/11 weeks with feed before I try flush for 10 days. All depends on her development and trichomes at end of week 9🤤🏆 Mid week 4 flower Day 26F Continues to swell and throw out such a banging aroma, pungent banana, then closer sweet banana sherbert, crazy. Bud stacking nice, I love its structure. This plant impresses me daily. Day28F- Stacking weight on, buds getting denser. Thanks for following I'll update more pictures in the week ✌️💚

Day29F - Buds really taking on form. Smell of banana kicks soon as tent opens, but on touching its more of a banana sherbert still 🤤. Day 31F, noticing calmag deficiency, prior to flush, but looking st other diaries and monitoring her trichomes, she is very nearly at her end. I'm seeing 70-80% cloudy-clear trichomes, so just watering now, pH balanced with calmag to finish to the week. Pistils maturing, trichomes flooding, starting to see cloudy, will try push feeds and water for this week then if she's ready I'll flush next week 🤞✌️💚 Day33F - she has now matured well enough for me to start flushing. Seeing cloudy fat trichomes now covered all over. I'm using RQS led Carson micro to inspect. Started to flush using 2gal each time PhD water with Flawless finish Advanced nutrients. 60-70% run off. Smell is phenomenal. Camera does no justice. I will invest this Xmas and treat myself 😎💚 Monitoring closely now for them amber trichomes.

Grow Questions

pifflestikkzstarted grow question a year ago
I have noticed rusting on the autoflower leaves, it is within its last 2 weeks of cycle, but looking into, it looks like a cal mag deficiency. Is she just hungry? Do calmag every feed and water? I'm trying the latter to combat the problem, any advice for future ref is appreciated

It looks like a cal/mag deficiency but I would not worry about it this late into the game. You’re nearly to the finish line by the looks of things. I would just water with pure pH balanced water from here on out. Let the plant use up as much of the stored energy as it can, in my opinion it really helps the cure process. For future grows, I would boost your cal/mag up slightly during flowering, especially the first 3-4 weeks. If you wish to run cal/mag during your whole grow it would be best to find a nitrate free source of CalMag to do that. I hope this helps.

This plant was an absolute dream to. Grow, no issues at all with health of plant, just struggled to tame her as she was a a thick strong climber 💪💪. I'm so impressed with how this turned out, I could have flushed for another 3 days to make it 12days but I needed the space. After The 2 days of dark I was recommended I can definitely say it has vastly boosted her trichomes and the smell when I opened the tent blew my head away 😍😋 Aiming for a 10-14 day hang dry, The 10-12 weeks curing in jars with humidity packs. I will update with a dry bud weight and smoke test 👌 Bud wet weight is just 500g+ Final bud dry weight is 298g. Of juicy resinous purple and orange buds 😍 smells like sherbert and hang dry smoke test revealed a candy sherbert, no banana yet but hoping like the grow it matures with cure process now. Hits eyes straight away, sandy bottom kids, giggles, munchies, fun time with Mrs, bed. Full cycle with this one very happy over here 😉😁💚 FAT BANANA AUTO FROM ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS, big thank you to the team, and the breaders. What a pheno I received. I appreciate you all
