I have the dna purple banana and sour tangie beans I just popped a bean of each and grew moms took clones and just started veg. the purple bananas were some really healthy vigorous fast rooting cuttings and had a lot more roots than the sour tangie by day 14 so the purple banana is already looking like good. I grew the strawberry banana and liked this has to be better! I will update in a few weeks after they veg out a while

Hey everyone!

I have 3 RP Strawberry Bananas in veg, going to flip the lights next week. I seem to have a small one, a medium sized one and a big one. All of them are looking pretty lanky, with similar structures. I have been training heavily with FIM and Supercropping, they have all responded well - the tallest has taken it the best and is the nicest shape. I will throw some pictures up later if I can.

Did we ever get a smoke report on it?

while the other was quite tall about 5ft. it's the bigger one that was the better 1 of the 2 for me
the taste.. creamy bannana that's the only way i can describe it while the little one was more kinda fruity
hard to describe but very very tasty
any questions you want me to answer ill do my best to help (:

here's some shots of the cured buds of the bannana pheno

Oh that certainly sounds good!! I am looking for interesting IWE flavours mostly and creamy banana is definitely that! Were there any more strawberry leaning phenos?

For some reason I can't upload any pictures from my phone so I will have to use a computer later, I am going to stop by my garden today anyway so I can get some newer ones.

What did you find the yields like? I am sharing a grow room with someone and they are in it commercially so I have to find things they will also find viable, the smaller one looks like it might have to be left out of the next round. It's always a compromise like this, I am moving in a few months though so I can go back to running what I want - I will definitely be getting a few more packs of this Strawberry Banana to look through!

How did you grow your's out? Were they outside in soil? Only 5ft seems tall for indoors? Mine are indoors in 10L pots of super soil with NFT mat strips threaded through the soil and connected to (dangling in) feeder trays of aerated water which in turn is fed by a 100L reservoir. It's sort of a super soil / DWC hybrid system as the roots stretch to the feeder trays and it gets the best of both worlds (flavour, vigour and health through organic probiotic nutrient absorption via the soil and the speed, mass and density of hydro thanks to the perfect rate of oxygen and water available to the roots in the feeder trays).

Your pictures look delicious! I am going to flip my lights in a few days and you have excited me all over again. I can't wait to see what I get from running the trim too, the last amazing resin strain I had was a GGG Lemon Puff - it made pure water shatter, clear as glass! Took my face off and smelt like a bag of lemons. I lost the genetics though...

hi
i only popped the 2 seeds so can only comment on what they where like

they where grown indoors i vegged them for 4 1/2 weeks from seed and bloom took 9 weeks
yield's i think where very good the bannana pheno was about 5oz and the smaller one about 3 1/2oz (dry)
all my plants get quite big (my freinds say it's because i fuss over them 2 much) lol
they could be right the x wife thought that aswell :finger:
the grow it's self went without a hitch both strong vigorous happy healthy plants i would all so
say they were heavy feeders i remember feeding them and sayin to myself greedy f**kers

all in all i loved growing this strain and i really do look forward to growing them again
i'm pretty confident from just the 2 ive done there is some really nice phenos to be found
and i can't wait to find out :fire:

ohh and they were grown in soil. veg soil bio-bizz allmix then fed fishmix and bloomed in plagron bat mix with added
worm casts bat guano and molassis.the feeds i use are bio bloom. old times bloom. bio algamic and a few others
i like my organic tasting buds.

hope your's turn out dank budd (:
