Week 11 started
I think that the plant is near to the end, maybe a couple of weeks or less. During this week I will start to check trichomes, my objective is to have 50-50 milky and amber. This will be the last week with nutrients.
D71: changed the water to the pot, added 30ml bloom, 15ml micro, 10ml pH-.
D73: first trichomes check today: 40 crystal, 50 milky, 10 amber. Added four liters of tap water.
D74: added 3 liters of tap water with 5ml of pH-
D75: added 3 liters of tap water.
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
