What to do when plant goes bananas?
GrowDiarhiastarted grow question a month ago
I noticed my beautiful plant has had bananas over a week. I read that these little things makes buds grow seeds and ruin the plant.
Bananas are so small, that they are hard to spot with eyes. What should I do?

High buddy,
Yes those are bananas. You want to check all the buds and start of the nodes for bananas and even worse balls (male flowers). You carefully pick them off the plant with tweezers. Make sure that you do not rip them open!!!
It does happen sometimes with vunerable genetics and stress. It is not the end of the world. But a check once a week would be good to prevent seeds in your buds.
If there are a lot of seeds in your buds you can always still make bubble hash, rosin, oil or edibles.
Next to that banana your plant does look great buddy!
Happy Growing! 💚

a few nanners are ntohing to worry about.
I've have a few plants produce them and they did not amount to anything. I even tried pollinating my plant with one and got zero seeds.
The pollen naners make is not that great. the pollen from fully functioning male sacks is a whole different story.
You may find a few seeds with nanners but not the end of the world and the grow can go on. The normally pull these out end of grow as its just trying to survive and reproduce. wet your fingers and pluck em off if they bothering you, but I think its ok. your almost done.

I would snip thst bud off and just be done with that part. It's on both sides.
Make sure not to be stressing the plant. And keep a regular 12-12.

if no light leaks or added stress, it's genetics... too much inbreeding or a lazy selection process by the breeder etc.
nanners aren't so bad on their own. They don't produce a ton of pollen and somtimes it's not even viable pollen. If you see a pollen sack, it's time to shit your pants, lol.
Pluck them before they mature and they can't do much (green colored). Yellow means it potentially produced some pollen and released it.
Happening 1 time ... shit happens. if it happens frequently, either a shit ass breeder or your environment is causing stress.

Unfortunately you have bananas as others said. Yes it happens from time to time. So long as its opened up it will have released a bit of pollen, depending how late in flower it happened will depend on how much got pollinated and how developed them seeds will be. You may be lucky and only find the odd seed When harvesting .

Nanas happen more offen than you think they release pollen so the plant can reproduce(cycle of life) but only in small amounts pollen acting locally. There will be a reason they have popped out, stress in 1 way or another, try pull them out squeezing them to keep the pollen in as much as possible..
Happy farming dude.

Foxtail Ready For HarvestHello. This plant of mine became foxtail. As the harvest time nears its end, blooms have begun to bloom again on their hills. Now the first flowers at the bottom are ready for harvest. What should I do? Should I harvest immediately or wait for the new flowers to mature?

18 weeks, but I'm not sure she's ready.The plant is 18wks old. Leaves are getting yellow, some buds are so fat the branches bend under the weight.
I'm worried some pistons are still white and I can still see some clear trichoms, but she's 3 weeks after the recommended date of harvesting.
Do you think she's ready?

What do you guys think?It's my first grow (automatic, 6 weeks old) and compared to other plants, my plant looks a bit small/ridiculous. I give her 24/7 light (I read that on guides) is that maybe too much? What's your impression of her? I use two growlights (one from above and one from the side).

Why dont my plants grow towards the middle/light and instead concentrate near the walls?Looks like my plants are growing towards the wall and not towards the middle where the light should be the best.
Why do the plants behave like that and what should I do?
Raise the net, rotate some of the plants, then redo the net?
Remove the net completely?
leave it as it is?

¿Por qué no se desarrollan lateralmente?Tengo algunas teorías:
1) Exceso de riego (por problemas varios, he tenido que regar 1 vez por semana en gran cantidad (demasiado)
2) Estres por movimiento (debido a tormentas y otras razones, muevo las plantas de ubicación varias veces por semana
3) Exceso de fertilizantes?

Today i spotted something that looks like male pistils.
I removed them carefully and found something similar at the plant and removed it aswell.
Should i remove the plant from my tent (3 other plants are inside) or keep it?

My Girl's Gone Rogue with 10cm of Frosty Goodness!My lady decided to shatter the whole "week 10 harvest" and instead shoot 10cm, packing new flowers whiter than a yeti's behind in a blizzard!
This genetic curveball beats me.
Do I let her keep this frosty stretch, or do I harvest and let this mutant masterpiece become a solo act
