Shov's Autumn 2009 Grow

[MonkeyBone]

HO MY GOD! I tought that last year, one of my plant has banana for years, but you man, got a real banana tree here!!! I'm pretty sure it will also taste banana!!

Everything is beautiful in your garden, even banana shake.

:thumbsup:

Thanks for the closer pics of nanners. I've got some of those at the moment on my largest girl. Kinda disheartening but like I said, she's the biggest, and thickest. Hope those nanners are good smoke lol :stoned:, for both of us!

[Shovelhandle]

NO smoke 'em. You kind of brush them off after they dry. They won't stay on the bud. Yes, there are a shit-ton of 'em, eh?

[sarah louise]

So, I guess you all love my hermies too?

Shit happens Shov, shame for it to happen in a crop you have intentionally pollinated, but yeah, it happens.

Are you seeing any seed developing yet from the staminate flowers?

[Shovelhandle]

No, appears that the stamen are mostly sterile. I do have see forming from the earlier polination though.

I love the pics, not everyone grows out hermies so I am glad we have some nice pics to see what it looks like. And the weed still looks bomb ass anyways so its all good.

I guess it was that long dark period that caused em to go hermie? I had one plant hermie on me but it only had nanners on the bottom of the budsites... which is why I didn't catch it

[Shovelhandle]

NO, the dark period wasn't it. It's the strain.

and thanks bombD. I seen these stamen in this strain when I really looked for them under the female calyxes, after drying. Usually you just have the odd little dried up yellow stamen (banana) in the buds. Not always like fully developed male balls that open up with 5 stamen full of pollen, like a real male.

Have you actually seen the pollen Shov? I have yet to see the magical yellow dust that I'm used to seeing come out of male sacs. I was joking bout smoking the nanners too!! :stoned: What are you opinions about that strain hermying on a consistent basis? Will you stop growing that particular strain or keep on chugging along with it? You think the hermy trait is more dominate now that the male nanners are more developed and flaunting their stuff?

[Shovelhandle]

All done with Z project, this is the end of all the seeds I have of that strain. I did cross it with bubblegum but the plants got stolen. It's no great loss, nice growth and product but liked to hermie. The one sativa crossed with NH is the only possible exception.
