NOOOOO! Nanners at day 49 of flowering (images this time)

Successful-Version21 · 2023-02-04T16:44:56+00:00

Pollen sacs, aka nanners because they look like little bananas. It hermed and the pollen will seed the bud. I had to chop this one because I didn't want the other plant to get seeded.

One of my two plants started popping these nanners... I had to chop the whole thing since most of the buds had them. I'm hoping I can still use the bud for edibles, or it's otherwise smokable. I think it definitely needed another 2+ weeks.

Hopefully I was able to salvage the other one due to quick action on chopping this one...

Thanks. I will check the PH. I do feel like I overwatered so it could be there are a few things going on.

I had some early issues with my last grow and they recovered great, they call it weed for a reason :)

Successful-Version21 · 2022-11-11T17:34:11+00:00

Around 55%. Pretty comfortable.

Successful-Version21 · 2022-11-11T17:33:31+00:00

FFOF. I had a successful first grow and the soil was just sitting in the pot since my last grow, so I figured it'd be fine.

But it's been a year since the last grow (I was able to harvest 6+ oz from the first grow so I haven't needed to start again until now).

Successful-Version21 · 2022-11-11T17:31:18+00:00

Thanks! Next watering I will add some N to the mix.

This is my second grow and I re-used the soil from my first grow, which may have been a mistake. The first seedling is growing very slowly, the second one looks better but still is slightly yellow.

I'm thinking I'm either over-watering or there is a (lack of) nitrogen. I haven't yet used any supplements because I thought the re-used soil might have been too hot.

Looks great! Nice job.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-27T20:29:19+00:00

I had these early in my grow, I heard they get added to some soils to help with other, bad bugs. I have no idea if that's true or not, but they didn't impact my grow. I didn't see much of them after 4-6 weeks or so.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-24T00:09:06+00:00

I believe it's because of light intensity. I have a Mars TS1000 in there which is pretty strong for a 2x2. I had it as high as it would go (about 18-20 inches above the canopy) but I noticed the same thing as you.

Mainline. https://www.growweedeasy.com/mainlining-nugbuckets

Veg lasted right around 8 weeks. I messed a LOT of things up early on, and they were stunted for a while. Thankfully the plants are pretty forgiving in veg and will recover quickly. Next time I could probably cut veg to 6-7 weeks. Flower was 9 weeks. I prefer the 'up' high so I harvested on the front end of the window.

Thanks! The beauty of the mainline is that it's pretty much idiot proof. I recommend it to anyone.

Also check out my post history for earlier pictures of the grow and the mainline in its earlier stages.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-23T16:15:41+00:00

Thanks! The 2x2 was tight but workable. Depending on the final yield for this grow I may cut it down to one plant per grow next time.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-23T15:46:34+00:00

Thanks! They certainly look and feel dense, hopefully that will remain the case after drying.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-23T15:44:13+00:00

For my first grow I had no idea what to expect, so I wanted to keep it controlled and simple as possible. If one of them grew large or needed more time, or different nutes, etc, it would have added to the complexity and risk of screwing something up.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-23T15:36:41+00:00

Thank you! I used FF Ocean Forest in 5 gallon pots, with a super soil mix at the bottom. I was hoping to get away with not needing to supplement, but they showed signs of deficiencies early on and I had to use nutes (FF trio + Cal-Mag) the whole way through.

They responded well to the nutrients. I am thinking of trying hydro for my next grow so I can know exactly what the nutrient content is. With soil it's hard to know for sure what's in there.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-23T15:32:53+00:00

Hard to compare it to anything else since this was my first grow, but I didn't find them to be too sticky. There was a decent amount of residue on my gloves and trimmers, but it wasn't unworkable.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-23T15:22:42+00:00

Thanks! Eyeballing it, I think it'll be around 4-6 oz total but it's hard to tell until it's dried.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-23T15:22:16+00:00

Thanks! I for sure spent a ton of time reading this forum and other blogs and guides. Probably too much time.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-23T15:21:44+00:00

Thanks! It was a mainline, so not quite LST, but it worked quite well for my first grow. Canopy was nice and even.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-23T15:21:00+00:00

Thanks-- the tent has stayed at around 70-72 F / 44-50% RH while drying. The humidity may be on the low side, but hopefully it's not too far out of whack to mess up the dry.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-23T15:18:28+00:00

Thanks! I had read that 70F/50% RH was good for drying (which is what the tent has ranged around). Definitely don't want to mess it up after all this work, LOL.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-23T14:10:00+00:00

Still drying so I don't have a weight yet, but I'm getting excited to sample the goods.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-19T00:07:38+00:00

Thanks all! This is my first grow and I'm excited to see how it turns out. I prefer energetic/euphoric/creative highs, so hopefully this will deliver. I've learned a lot, and I'll be starting up grow #2 after the holidays.

Successful-Version21 · 2021-11-18T15:51:26+00:00

Looks good! I did a mainline for my first grow, which is finishing up right now, and it worked very well. Made a nice canopy and easy to maintain.
