Thanks! I hope they’re gonna be as good in the first bowl as some aspects of them look. Won’t be too much longer. Hopefully keep stacking and fattening.

According to the seed description they are a hybrid, although I don’t know if it’s split down the middle or leaning towards sativa. I do have them in 7 gal bags so I’m sure that contributes to the height. This is more or less my third grow but the others grows were bannana kush auto’s and a couple of photoperiods. All grown in the same time frame so I really count this as my second grow. I am finishing up the last grow, which I harvested in Feb, 2022. Been smoking the same awesome stuff since 2022. That stuff will finally be about gone when these are getting ready to actually smoke. Really looking forward to them. I think I have done much better this go around than the last. They look a lot better at this point in time than the last batch.

I was just on your page looking around. You got some good lookin younguns there also. I started in a 2 plant tent. I had 10 banana kush seeds I purchased from this website. About a month or so into the 2 plant tent I got a 4x4 tent and planted 6 more in there but it was too crowded but they grew. Mean while I harvested the 2 plant tent and had two photoperiod seeds that were given to me, they were called chocolope. That finished off the seeds I had. Lost 3 all together that didn’t germinate.

Thankyou bro and sounds like overall you had a success!

Thank you and I reckon that anything that makes it to harvest and succeeds in getting you high would have to be considered successful. There’s a lot of folks on here, both come and gone that have had some exceedingly successful grows. They always set the goal for others like myself to aspire to.

These couple of bud shots are nearing the end of 6 weeks in flower. Looks to maybe a couple of weeks till ready to chop. Hard for me to really tell but I think I’m starting to get a clear to some milky on these.

I’m growing shortcut also. I am at day 70 of grow but still some clear trichomes and white pistils. I’m wondering how precise the 70 to 80 day lifecycle is.




Welcome KW! Plants look really good. I harvested mine in three different steps. My first harvest I took at the beginning of 8 weeks. It was only 2 plants at that point I took from. That was the topmost buds. At the end of the 9th week I took buds from the tops of 2 more plants. By the end of the 10th week I completed the harvest on all 4 plants. The fist cut was perhaps a bit pre mature but not by much. I personally liked the buzz from that very first cut the best I think but all of the bud from those 4 plants were very potent. At least for me. That 70-80 day cycle is a guide line and is actually pretty close. I harvested mine the way I did because I wanted to experiment with the bud at different stages of development. If you want 'em truly ripe and perfect I would say hang tough and wait on the pistils to start changing colors and curling up back into/toward the bud.

I don’t know how to post a link on here from prior post I have made but if you look for my handle I posted some pics under the title “A few of these buds are ready for the chop me thinks!” and there are pics of the buds prior to me chopping away at them.

Ok, think I figured it out. Here is a link to the pics on those buds at first harvest: A few of these buds are ready for the chop chop me thinks!

I pulled the first plant at 70 days it’s drying now. I plan on 2 more at 77 days and the final 2 at 84 days. I’m going to use the results to determine the next grow time line. I appreciate the response mine are loaded with trichomes but still a lot of clear.
