Dr. Mantis Toboggan's Perpetual Tent of Wonder, Dreams, Highs, Lows, Enemies, Friends, and Maybe - Just Maybe - Even You

[Dr. Mantis Toboggan]

Merry Christmas, all! I gave the MN Tangie clone 1/3 cap (~ 1 ½ tsp.) of Espoma liquid fertilizer today.

Count on me to both over- and underfeed in the same grow!

What's the difference. Cannabis is a radiant glowing green plant,like some of your leaves. By the time they turn blue, you have ran out of P. That purple is molybdenum deficiency though. Which means the plant has excess Nitrate that isn't being converted to aminos. The Cannabis community blames these problems on nitrogen. Unless you are yielding 10 lbs a light you don't have an excess of anything.

Looking great! How are the smells coming along?

MN Tangie smelled like straight basil for a week in veg. It now smells the most offensive: Plastic and rubber. I hope it changes in the cure. Panama is the stickiest and is lime followed by lemon. GG #4 is fruity and sickly sweet, but not in a bad way.

 

[Dr. Mantis Toboggan]

We're at week 6 1/2 and I believe the GG #4 is throwing bananas:

I plucked all that I could see. I think this is a seed developing:

Looks like I'll have GG #4 S2s now. Hopefully it hasn't pollinated the rest of my crop.

@Dr. Mantis Toboggan
If I'm not mistaken, GG#4 is the result of forbidden love, so it's not surprising that she exhibits traits of hermaphroditism inherited from her same-sex ancestors. I don't think these bananas will produce enough pollen to ruin the entire crope, although tweezers should be handy.
I like her trichomes on long stalks.

I plucked these with my fingers. I'll grab tweezers if I see more. Anything I can do to minimize the chance of further pollination?

 

[rindindoo]

remove bananas regularly and don't point the fan at GG4, I can't think of anything else. I don't think these bananas will produce enough pollen to spoil all the neighborhood girls. Didn't you notice there's a lot of pollen in those bananas you removed?

I didn't break them up, so I don't know. Thanks for the advice!
