FlavoursUk Minor de leafing to expose growth shoots. Day 26 and already 28cm tall maybe a little more, rather go under than over. She is growing super quick and the best part is I've used no nutrients, just my secret garden ingredient. Definitely will have flipped her to flower by day 28 (Week 5). Nice thick stems, big leafs and sturdy. -Stay Tuned.

FlavoursUk Day 16 (18/05/18) - So I gave her a hair cut today as I know she's soon to go into full flowering over the next couple days. Some of you might think I'm crazy but I've a great success rate doing this and you'll see the difference it makes once she bounces back in the next few days. It was done to allow more light through the canopy so I get better quality and size buds as she had some really big fan leaves blocking bud sites. I'm going leave her to recover for a little while and may supercrop if needed although I don't think she will. Growing nicely but not as quick as the purple queen which has very vigorous growth. Messed up my light schedule slightly due to being in hospital but don't think its affected her much. Stay tuned as she will soon be producing some beautiful flowers! Peace all

FlavoursUk Fat banana looking better, weird looking bud structure.. mainly small dense nugs. It’s day 66 and she’s been in flush for 4 days. Looking to give her another week or two at least. Stay posted guys. Thanks for following along.

FlavoursUk She’s been in flush around 15 Days now, nothing super heavy. Lower leaves starting to fade slightly and she’s still fattening up. Will let her start to fade before I decide on doing anything at all. Her trichomes are mainly cloudy with an amber here and there.

FlavoursUk She’s fattened up nicely and in full flush mode. Been in flush around 16 Days but nothing heavy until today. I wanted her to fatten up a bit before giving her some heavy flushes before she gets the chop. Not long now.

FlavoursUk Heat wave is over. Fat banana coming along nicely now, still getting fat. Purple/blue hue to the tips of some of her caylax’s. Her buds are glistening, without any camera flash. Her smell is pure bliss, can’t put an exact description on it, but tropical comes to mind. Just waiting to see those hairs recede some more and a little fade. Thanks for following along and stay tuned for the update!

FlavoursUk So fat banana finally got the chop. Started off well then had an influx of heat around mid flower, not a major problem as I dealt with it, just could have gone smoother. She flew through veg with no problems or complaints whatsoever. She was resilient and would grow her again. She smells so loud, covered in frost.. I have a few more pictures of the chop to upload but will do it in a little while. Such a unique scent from her, definitely tropical and banana peel type of aroma and taste(from test smoke). Been a pleasure to grow and can honestly say its some tasty smoke. Will do a proper smoke report after this batch has dried and then cured. Thanks for tuning in! Will be back -FlavoursUk

FlavoursUk There’s a few things I’d personally change if I was to grow fat Banana again. But this time round she was very resistant to high temperatures and humidity during Flower. She holds on to nitrogen so I’d definitely feed her less on the nutrients as she is a light feeder.

@Michka, Hi mate, I totally agree. Good airflow is key ;) No worries, glad I can help.. if you need anything just let me know. Happy to talk you through or give advice if needed 🙏🏾

@Flavoursuk,that's what i see: they are going great ! In my first years of growing a friend told me not give too much airflow or i will get hermies, so i never gave them more than just a little.. Now with your video i can see that he told bullshit, i can increase my airflow for sure ! Anyway, each-one teach one, and this evening i'll go to bed a little bit less dumb ! Thanks for your answer !

@Michka, this is few weeks ago, and as you can see she has done nothing but improved. Never had that problem in all my years of growing. All it’s ever done for me is strengthen my stems and set them up for a heavy yield and harvest. Been growing way before I ever came onto grow diaries and learned from the older generation of growers and never looked back. If it’s too slow she won’t have a reason to thicken up and grow. Look at my most recent weeks and you’ll see the difference. If you go to the gym and do resistance training, you need to challenge your muscles to grow. Same principle with the plants in a nut shell. I do both ;) Plus, if she was outdoors she would be under a lot more wind than that. My fan rotates so it is not constant blowing also. Not sure what point your trying to make but all works well for me.
