Sixth week of late vegetation / pre-flowering started.
I've changed the water into the pots. The fan is turned three hours on, one off. Inkbird parameters are unchanged (20° -3° H +2°C). Plants are healthy and started to be bushy and taller. Light power @ 100%. Extractor @ 75%.
D36: plants seem to be healthy. I've changed the water and during the pot cleaning I broke the air stone; repaired it as well I could do. Tomorrow I will buy the replacement. I added 35 ml grow, 30 ml micro and 35 ml bloom. pH @ 6.0, EC @ 1.8. I've used 9 ml of pH-
D37: replaced the broken air stone. The plant seems to be ok after passing almost one day only with air injected by the replacement.
D38: pH correction at 5.9. Added 1.5 l of water to each pot.
D40: added 2 l of water each pot. Plants are growing bushy more than I expected and they are drinking a lot. Removed some lower leaves.
wow, big difference in the last 3 weeks, Banana is getting fat!😍
when did your stretch start/stop?
My bananas are in the beginning of week 6 (2nd flowering) and there isnt a lot stretch so far...
@taprootArmy, thanks for comment. I think something goes wrong with the website because the reply I sent yesterday does not appear anymore. Anyway, the stretching becomes in the third week of flowering to stop after three weeks. The buds became fatter during the last two week.
@taprootArmy, thanks for your comment. Three plants were two in the beginning, but one has been removed from the tent after a strange sickness to the roots. The stretch began during the third week of flowering and stops after two/three weeks. In the last two weeks the buds begin to be fast as I never experienced with the soil. The next time I think that I will top her, especially if I will decide to grow her in hydroponics.
Holy F, that are some bushes :) Now you are making me nervous. Do you think topping fat banana auto would be a good idea to control the height?
Also might I ask why you dont defoliate?
Good Luck and happy harvest!
@taprootArmy, I think you're right. I should have to top the plants to control their height, I didn't because I didn't believe they'd grow so much. This is my first experience with hydroponics and the same strain that during the past grow reached 80cm this time is trying to pierce my tent. Moreover, also the missing defoliation caused a big problem to ventilation, in fact I think that one of my plant is dying. Now I removed her from the tent trying to understand if I can do something to her. Let's see
