This little lady is ... well ... little :) I guess "little" is the wrong word ... she's short - very short. The node spacing is virtually non-existent ... and she also has sooooo many leaves. The canopy is so thick and full - half the bud sites can't get much light ... but I don't want to do any heavy defoliating (she doesn't seem to have liked being topped - wouldn't want to piss her off any more than I already have).
The tops are looking promising as far as frostiness goes ... it's still early, but the frost is starting to creep ... :)
I'm growing this strain right now for my first grow! I was a bit disappointed to hear you didn't find this strain very strong the first time you grew it since others have said otherwise. I'm wondering if you aren't letting your flowers go long enough, I know more amber trichomes should make a more powerful high. I'm a noob so take it for what it's worth but just a thought
@Nigs4200, first ... I appreciate you taking the time to write out your thoughts - not everyone does :) I think you actually misunderstood ... out of all the plants I'd grown so far (around 8, I think), the Strawberry Banana was the BEST out of all of them. It's actually the only plant that gives me a noticeable buzz ... it's my favorite at the moment. The strawberry banana also produced the most attractive buds, at least in my opinion ... they were a bit airy - but they puffed out nice like little pine cones. As for the trichomes, the general consensus is that more amber = more sedative ... I like a "speedier" high (better for creative activities, like playing guitar) - but not a paranoid high ... so, I try to go for as much cloudy trichomes as I can (some amber is fine - just don't want much of the glassy trichomes). In either case, I wish you best of luck on your grow - I'm sure you will enjoy this strain :)
