Lollipopping before flowering?

[Markshomegrown]

BTW auxins / hormones come from the kelp component not from banana pic

Dried banana skin has about 40 percent potassium, guess that's what the pic is for.

NPK 2.5.8 is a very good ratio for flower.

Saying that the Nitrogen is a little low for the first 3 weeks in flower, I would feed the plants something high in Nitrogen for the next 3 weeks, liquid seaweed meal is a good shout.

Your opening post asks about time, because you need to move.
We tell you you won't have enough time to finish.
You admit to being a newb.
You watched a YouTube video or 2 and are trying to copy it.
You proceed to tell all the members here with decades of growing completed, we are all wrong and "just wait."
You think giving your plants a "special treat" once a week is going to do some magic.
You bold "big fat colas" in every reply, I guess you think if you emphasize it enough you can "manifest" it into being right?

Yeah, you are only right about that I’m a newbie!
Not all, but only some so-called experts members are wrong, but those are mostly trolls.

And yes I will have 16 big fat colas in 8-9 weeks with my tiny mainlines. Nothing magical about that.

I’m planning to give my plants next Saturday, when they are in week 2 of flower, some organic bananas as special threat!

Week 3: 500 ml of compost tea.
Week 4: some bananas
Week 6: 500 ml of compost tea.
Week 7: some bananas
Week 8: 500 ml of compost tea.
Week 9: Harvest

Wait I thought this was a water only grow?

You don't have to mainline to achieve large colas either. Just pick the right strain and LST.

Did a little sleuthing on that “ product “ …. Has pic of banana ( wtf ? ) but has loose MSDS components listed. It contains Nothing Special as with other available products with molasses , fish , kelp and humic . No description of NPK sources - why not list it if “ organic “.

It is along same lines as Kelloggs fish / kelp organic fert but at a far more cheaper price than a bottle showing an erect Dicknana .

Kelloggs is some good shit and personally use it.
But using stupid erect bananas - hell no.

Save your dollars - say no to Erect Bananas

Nice and thank you for looking this all up.. but is see they are not the same.

Erect bananas = 2–5-8
Death fish and ocean weeds = 2-2-2

I’m going to use also a PK compost tea booster

Your plants look great, I would pull the shoots down an inch every other day but keep the shoots facing the light, I use a pair of nose pliers, hold the wire, and do a half turn (little and often the best way, this will keep the stress to a minimal.

Thanks for the advice!
I hope I did not stress them to much..

Start of day 4 flower:

Make sure you keep saying it in every post, so you can believe yourself lol

Just fyi, day 4 of 12/12 isn't day 4 of flower, it's day 4 of 12/12. As you can quite clearly see, there is no flowers.

When you grow indoors, flowering will begin once you switch your lights to 10-12 hours of darkness.

I say my plants are in flower the day I switch them over to 12/12.
You could say, true flower is when you first see the pistils between the nodes.

OP flower his plants off at about 6" 3 weeks in veg and he has 8 weeks to flower them off, lots of growers said it could not be done, I asked the OP if I could join his thread because I have to do the same thing and he wants to see how my grow turns out.

Beautiful !! I can’t wait to start spotting white pistils in week 2 of flower on my plants!

like most pot heads, you can and will say whatever you want.
The problems is, The entire industry and those of us with actual education, because we took a course or 2, know, where as you are just commenting as if you know.

I also enjoyed how there are 16 pages of people telling this guy the same thing, but he clings on to the one guy supporting him (you).

good luck.

Thanks, Neoliet
you're going to love 7-21 days in flower, there going to stretch, my guess (3 x the height and width), going to get very crowded in your flower room.
keep uploading pics every few days, you want to keep the canopy level and remove the lower side shoots as they grow, suckers will slow the growth of the larger shoots.
this is going to be fun

Pretty sure he said he took 8 weeks to veg those 6in monsters. But he'll nail that ripeness in about 7 more weeks huh?

 

[Markshomegrown]

You take a medium/large plant(strain), veg it for 3 weeks, and flower, it grows massive, it's simple when you think about it.
