Love your Banana.

Flipping to flower. The elusive Mac smell is back. It has been wafting in and out at various stages of growth. Not sure what makes it kick in but this is a wonderful smokey floral smell very similar to how I remember it from the original Mac 1 clones given to me by the Wonderland guys. This bodes well. I wouldn't expect plants at this stage would smell anything other than vegetative but the Mac's are different. Dosed the girls with a round of Natures Pride Flower finisher. 1 tbs per gallon of water. These nutes are soluble and immediately available. Girls perked up right away and off into flower we go. One thing about the 16/8 schedule, lots of pre-flowers and all leaves already have single leaflets. I assume the grow is still worthy. It's certainly bushy. We'll see. After a few weeks, I'll strip the leaves again and tidy up the canopy. The plants I scrogged, particularly the Mac's are still showing stress, the others, not. Re clones. I followed Medcropper's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-r1Ol9J69iY method of cloning and with great success. No need for plugs, rapid rooters or whatever. Simply tightly pack coco into trays, water with v.light nutes and ph corrected water and place under dome. Root growth is phenomenal. 100% success. The key point, make the hole for the stem small for a tight fit and use Clonex gel. Loving this technique. Happy growing all.
