So i cloned all my querkle plants from last go around. None of them appeared to have any bananas then but i severly underfeed last grow. This time i feed properly with earth juice. Nothing else in my garden hermied including my other querkle phenos. But my space queen dom querkle is throwing sterile bananas all over the place. The buds look very nice and beautiful and are pretty big. Will sterile bananas harm my crop or the smoke in anyway?? Im still gonna grow querkle but im gonna grow my other pheno(urkle) instead. I like that one better anyways. Also what should i do about the nanners, should i pluck them now or wait untill i harvest and then pluck them? I thank you guys that offer good advice ahead of time.

Very Worried :sad:

I forgot to mention, it is the start of the ninth week. I want to let it go for a couple more days so i can get more of a color change.

if they are really sterile nanners no, it wont hurt. the whole danger of stamen is that they will pop open early and pollinate the plant, which will screw with the buds

A few of the top Buds are really huge yet still have all white hairs. Also on further examination they are not sterile. They are in the beginning of the ninth week and starting to get a nice purpling. The thing is that even if they do pop open will it even pollinate my plants? The calyxs are already completly swollen and most of the hairs have started receeding. Under a microscope i still see too much clear heads to me though. what do ya think?

cut it down, or spray it with reverse or maybe just plain water that late. Ive read water helps idk.

I would cut it tho and be done.

i feed them only botanicare cal mag at 8 ml per gal with ro water for the last 8 days. Do you think that will mess the taste up at all?? And for a week before that also it was hygrozym and cal mag only with ro water. Im trimming. trim trim trim :weed:

i would not give any Minerals to my plants in late flower, i think it could make your Meds crakle and pop, but dont quote me on that, because I never done it. but common sense tells me not to do that.

they look like shit
when you get bananas, they don't get "swallowed" by the calyxes
they just stick out and look all yellow and shitty
then you cure and the plant matter dessicates and withdraws, revealing them even more
nasty yellow sticks
the fear is that if you don't cut, you'll get pollen and a million tiny balls all over the outside of your buds (premie seeds)
that crackle, pop, and taste like raw ass
if you can, i'd scrap every cutting from that plant
if you just love the strain/pheno, crack more beans and look for a more stable version
that's my opinion/advice
what is it you like about the strain?
i bet someone here knows stable genetics with the tendencies you're after

8 ml per gallon of botanicare cal mag! that stuff is 2-0-0 what are you doing?! y are u feeding nitrogen in late flower? look at all these problems that stupid r.o is causing you. do some of your own research before asking everyone on this board to constantly hold your hand. apparently you dont know how to read the analysis of a fertilizer. or what can happen to a plant when she is fully mature. or that nitrogen can have an adverse affect on flowering or that pumping in synthetic nutes during the last 2 weeks of flower would leave a residual taste in the product...

honestly you have to be the one poster on here that annoys me the most! i have already answered this question and many more of your redundant questions pertaining to r.o, azomite, cal mag etc.. you are either incompetent or extremely lazy.

I play it safe and do the same. no cal mag no molassis nada for the last 2 weeks. just ro.

I would flush pure water for the last week, but if it calls for cal mag all the way until flush, I would run it 2-0-0 or not. They probably have it on there for a reason. I personally just add dolomite lime to my soil and retopdress every 4 weeks and I havent had any cal mag issues in a long while.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to NightbirdX again. true dat. im gonna switch to something more organic so i dont worry in the future. I tossed the last bit of cal mag plus i had in the garbage because that shit pisses me off.

What im going to do is do a 7 day darkness with a whole bunch of flushing. I seen this thread about it and im gonna try it out. Im sure it will correct any imperfection in taste, if there is any.

I smoked samples of my bud already and they still taste pretty damn good..

I could be wrong but querkle is an 8-9 week strain, i know of one that even finishes in 40 days...if its throwing manners at week 9, why keep it around another 7 days? It's already done

I grew Querkle for years and I'm probably guilty of cropping way late. I let it go 11-12 weeks at longest the trics take forever to turn amber and some the tips will pop or something after to long. I thought by bud was the shit and subcool gave me a nug of his at hempfest and it was EXACTLY the same. I thought mine was space queen leaning at first cause it stretched and grew more sativa. I loved it and recently lost it! I even tryed to reveg the one i had in flower and omg after like 2 months i killed it by being lazy for to many day's. The Tacoma cross has been having alot of your clones and i've picked up a few of each so imma be trying a lot of new ones. Also started some Ripped Bubba and Spacedawg seeds.

I'll be there again sub and ill bring some of my tga gear to show ya. I'm sure you'll like them. Thanks for throwing me a couple buds last year i really enjoyed them. The seeds I got did amazing as well. Really enjoyed the querkle and jtr u passed me and also smoked with me! rock on sub.
