4/11 Start of week 3 in flower. Big Nana will be in the tent most of time this week, outside if sunny and warm like today. This week feed cycle will be water wait till dry and then nutrients feed.
Will do defoliate as needed on the lower leaves.
4/13 Today is feed day for the girl. I gave her a variation of week 7 feed. I mixed up 1 gallon of water added nutrients and 1 teaspoon of organic cal-mag. Checked ph and adjusted UP to 6.5.
Poured the 1 gallon mixture slowly into Banana's 3 gallon cloth pot. I checked the runoff and the ph was at 6.5 I like to keep a check on the runoff water to prevent nutrient lockout if it drops out of range.
Her little fat ass is setting in the bright sun 78 degree at 30% humidity. She wants to be the big banana one day.
We had a visitor drop by today. Larry the lizard came by for lunch and a little siesta in the sun while lounging on a banana fan leaf.
4/14 (6 days till 420) Wifey claims Larry was Larryette and laid eggs in the soil of Banana. I bring Banana inside at night and Mrs W says the damn eggs will hatch and we have flying lizards everywhere in the house. I told her to hush and pass the joint.
Banana One is outside again today with Bud the dog on guard. The flower areas are expanding all the way up the branches. White pistils clusters at each flower point. Its got a long time to go but I will be watching the pistils when they change color as my baby matures.
4/15 Big Banana is in the tent growing, The humidity is a little high in the tent so I let Gorilla out to sit on the south side of the castle for the day.
Banana continues to fill out and expand the clusters of bud sites all over her. These are going to be some big banana kush cola buds when it fills out.
I will be changing the feed schedule soon to include bembe, bud candy or molasses depending on her attitude.
Thinking about going with the Foxfarm happy frog organic base feed of big bloom, cal-mag and kelp me for the last half of flower. Also I may use some Golden Tree, Fish Shit and HTG Stump Tea
4/16 Today is feed day. Banana's soil has dried out and is ready to eat. I mixed her up a nice sweet organic cocktail with some good old bembe and bud candy in it to feed and fatten up the buds.
Also because New Castle barely gets by West Ham, Banana gets a shot of Fish Shit with a hint of stinky Golden Tree , Nana loves her some football.
She will be in the tent all day as its not warm or sunny enough to be outside. By the beginning of May, Banana will be an outside plant till harvest.
I looked up the strain you're growing and it looks tasty af. Nice choice! I'm sure pressing some rosin from that would be awesome.
Good luck with your grow!
PS. Watch out for the flying lizards.
Looks Great, nice and healthy, some big fan leaves💪.
It sure looks nice outside where you are, still frost in the garden here,
so we still have a ways to go
before some plants can go outside.
Later👊.
