Master Sensei Genetics. Banana Durban auto What started as an attempt to do an outdoor autoflower Winter grow, immediately got brought inside. It got too cold, too soon, and also too much rain to sprout a seed properly. It barely grew after about 6 days outside, so i repotted it and brought it inside, where it basically spent its whole life under 12/12 lighting.

I skipped adding weeks 1-2 content because i lost the photos kept for those weeks. Really nothing to speak of anyway. Started LST this week, and some defoliating.

Did some pretty serious training this week, and more defoliation. I'm getting the plant to develop a really nice shape and it should result in plenty of topsites.

The plants are finally starting to show signs of stretching, which means flower should be coming soon! I adjusted the nutrients a lil bit, reduced the Gro and bumped up the Bloom

I'm gonna go ahead and call this week early flower. They're still stretching but not too much, and I'm keeping them trained and tied down. Did one heavy round of defoliation. So far, so good. No problems.

Ooops, cracked some branches and even split the main stalk open, by LST'ing two branches in opposite directions. The plant stayed healthy and exhibited no problems.

I adjusted the nutrients again to lean toward "bloom" feed. Other than that, pretty uneventful week, which is a good thing. Really starting to show "budlets" now!!

This week, i successfully supercropped a few branches! I was nervous, because last time i tried to supercrop, i ended up snapping off hearty main bud sites. This time, i di about 5 branches over the course of a few days.

This baby is stacking pretty nicely! Still a very leafy & hairy strain, the flowers aren't very fat (yet), but man they smell AMAZING. A very nice oldschool lemon-piney almost skunky aroma.

Last week of feed, then she'll get a 5-day flush. I'm gona play around and do a low pH flush at about 4.8 to 5.0, see if it affects the color at all.

Awesome, resilient plant! She handled a TON of bullshit, including being started outside in Winter weather. She stunted at Day 9 so i had pity on her & brought her into a photo grow. She spent her whole life under 12/12 which probably led to the buds not being as dense as i would have liked, but i also think the Durban Poison made her grow more like older style weed & not this new shit with triple D-cup calyxes like we're used to, LOL! Smells AMAZING, the aroma reminds me of the first sack of greenbud i ever scored back in like, i dunno 1992. Citrusy-sweet with a piney herbal undertone, SUPER amazing. Smoke is good, a lil teeny bit harsh because I didn't trim as much of the hairs off as i should have, she made HAIRY buds. All in all, happy but I could do better with the rest of my seeds, such as more lighting hours.
