The Fried Banana Diaries

hanspeter77 The week went well, it was more like a week than a few days, but that's fine. I repotted them very carefully today, it was just about possible. Now they are in their final pot, I can't leave them growing for too long because I'm flying to San Diego, USA, in 10 1/2 weeks. That's why I'm going to send them into bloom in 4-5 days at the latest. I know it's a bit early, but there's no other way. Maybe I can wait another 1-2 days, I'll have to see. If they're big enough, then off they go^^.

hanspeter77 The week went well, they are starting to grow. Unfortunately, I had to send them into flowering today. I'm flying to the USA in 9 weeks, so the run has to be finished by then.

hanspeter77 The week went well, but as I said, I unfortunately have to send them into bloom a little too early because I'm going on vacation in 8 weeks. Unfortunately, I've caught thrips in the soil, but I spray IPM every 2 days and also water the soil a little with it. Today, I received some neem oil, which I will add the next time I water them. This will kill the larvae in the soil. I'm curious to see how big the plants will grow ^^ I'm a little disappointed with this variety; somehow, they are slow starters, or there is something wrong with the genetics.
