17/3: Hey guys and welcome to my new grow for this year. The guys over at monkey nutrients have been so generous to allow me the opportunity to grow with their full pgr free range. I'm doing my usual method of germination by pre soaking the seeds until the seed cracks and then I shall be putting them in some presoaked easy start plugs by rqs to be potted into 11L rqs geotextile pots. The medium is going to be inexpensive soil. The seeds are going to be the rqs fat banana auto x5, as i had these at hand and fastbuds strawberry pie x2 and gorilla cookies x2 which I got from fastbuds and gd for newbie of the month November 2020 for my first ever grow on here. The light is a mars tsw2000. Very excited to see the end results with everything but I do love starting them of from seed best.
19/3: after 48hrs pre soak all seeds are now cracked open so I will be presoaking the plugs today and potting them up in they're final pots so I may lay in wait for them to break ground. The last time I used these i think they broke ground after 2/3 days so I will update you all with a bit more when they do. Temps 25c r.h. 50.

Really enjoyed growing this strain and can't wait until they are ready. I have had fat banana before and it is a very welcomed addition to my garden. The harvest could of been better but that's down to my own experience as a grower and am sure it will get better. I would love to thank monkey nutrients for the chance to grow with their pgr free range, the feeding schedule was really easy to follow. Would definitely recommend using these guys especially their root shoot and Stress.
This was a delight to grow and was almost the tallest in the garden. She grew strong branches and smelled like dank strawberries in flower. I didn't get the results I expected but that is down to my own growing skills and not the plants fault. Will be definitely growing her again 10/10
I really enjoyed growing this strain the only problem I had with them was that they grew very short not exceeding 50cm in height, but personally it is down to my own growing skills that they ended up like this as I have seen a few massive results from this strain. But despite its small stature it grew very dense nuts that are not only incredible to smell but the taste is something else. 10/10
