Fat Banana
Growing it

A surprising result in the end for my Fat Banana. Although her top buds didn't grow as fat as some strains, her lower buds were still thick, extremely dense and heavily stacked. She's a very frosty girl with a great bud to leaf ratio, which saves a lot of time when trimming! Be careful of her stretch as she gets very tall but still maintains tight node spacing. A subtle smell throughout flower but loud when the jar is cracked after a cure, this girl has a great high to her and is also good for back pain. She has a unique tropical taste with a slight hint of banana peel π

Nutrients
Been using the GHE base nutrient line for a long time. It works for me and I like the fact that this line is a 3 part, meaning I can feed at the ratios I wish to feed throughout a cycle and can control what is being fed exactly. Everything is always super frosty and perfectly healthy so I can only put it down to the environment and what was being put in the coco!
Never had any issues using Growth Technology Liquid Slilicon. The plants are perfectly bendable in veg and strong in structure.
Bud explosion is a good PK booster, although it's quite hard to mix and completely dissolve, it definitely increases bud sites, size and overall yield. I need to test the sweet candy a bit more before coming to a solid conclusion, but it does seem to increase aroma and taste very slightly.
Because this is the first time running this strain I can't say exactly, but there's no denying that the little microbes do their part when used in an already healthy grow. I'd always recommend it to anyone who is curious and hasn't tried it for themselves.
Thanks once again to RQS for sending me this girl. She's not the most fruity smoke, but more of a pine with a unique tropical/banana peel to it. A nice strain for the cannasseur, and one I'm really enjoying, especially for my back. Thank you to everyone who follows, likes, comments and supports in any way. In means a lot and keeps the passion to grow and continue uploading content on here and IG.
Because I have 4 seperate plants/strains in one tent, under one light, I've had to calculate these by dividing the conditions by 4 (4 plants in total sharing same conditions). This is the fairest and only way to work it out on average as a full tent.
Happy growing! πΊ

@biggreens420, @magnetous, seems to be a common thing! Haha. I left her to try and open up herself for most of the day, but she didn't make any progress so a couple hours before lights out I opened her up. I'm pretty sure she would have died otherwise. I only popped the one. I'll look forward to seeing yours too mate βοΈ I upload at the end of every week.
Haha Big G, check out my IG, I've got a nice little RQS merch giveaway for anyone in the UK thats wants to get involved. There'll be 2 winners! βοΈπΊ

The exact same happened to me too with one of the seeds, had to open the shell myself. We'll see how it goes for the 3 others that are popping right now after more than a week in the smart start! (against 48hrs for the first two)
Did all of yours open quickly?
I'll be putting my diary online next week as I wait for all the beans to be planted.

Indeed looks great man! I myself have some fat bananas (3) in the tent so I've been watching biggreen and your diaries close. It's my first time so I hope you can do a good report about the flush I still don't really get if you should just give water the last week(2?) or run the 30 liter threw it or both!? π Anyways this gives me good feeling about the strain good luck bro!!

@XII_XII_MRGreen, nice one man πππ for the last 14+ days I flush up to 30ltr every time until I have a low enough ppm value in the coco. After that I just water as normal, but by then they don't need feeding as much as they drink less βοΈπΊ

@biggreens420, yeah it's more the light than anything. Her tallest top buds are foxtail-ish and light stressed, but the lower tops have normal structured top buds. All of her lower nugs are fattening up beautifully ππͺ cheers mate βοΈπΊ

Amazing frost here!! You won't be running out of trichs with this one! The shape of the buds is so beautiful! The colors too! Nice one!
Mines are tricky... lot of amber trichs but they really don't look like they are finished at all! π

@Magnetous, cheers mate πβοΈ that's a strange one, although the trich's aren't necessarily my first indicator for harvest. I look at the whole plant, the bud structure and also how well flushed they are. I don't mind taking them a little further to get a better flush πβοΈπΊ
