Hello everyone,
Update for week 10 of the Frozen Bananas F1 Hybrids by Barney's Farm.
We have officially made it to week ten, and we are finally at the doorstep of the flowering phase. Here is how the girls are holding up as we prepare for the big transition next week.
The 21L Air Pot Champion
The main focus this week has been getting the large plant entirely dialed in and structurally ready for the stretch.
Just finished a heavy defoliation session to clear out the canopy, improve airflow, and maximize light penetration for the upcoming bud sites.
Gave her a substantial, heavy feeding with excellent runoff to ensure the root zone is clean, nourished, and completely prepared for the flip.
She will officially be going into flower next week, and I am highly optimistic to see how she responds to the light change.
The 3L Air Pot Underdog
As for her smaller sibling still sitting in the 3L air pot... well, the story remains mostly the same.
I have officially decided against transplanting her into a bigger pot. Instead, I'm going to throw her straight into flower alongside the big one just to study her behavior and see what happens.
To be completely honest, every single day I contemplate just tossing her in the trash. She is quite literally living on borrowed time—at this point, I'm pretty sure she's surviving entirely on a high-interest loan with a terrible repayment plan! Let's see if she can surprise us under the 12/12 schedule, even if it's purely for scientific curiosity.
Let's see how they both look next week as the real show begins.
Thanks for stopping by and have a good day.
Regards,
