Got a sad story on the best Banana Crack Phenotype that I lost...I originally had called this hybrid Fried Green Bananas but people didn't stick to that name and kept calling it Banana Crack, eventually I gave up on correcting them:mad:
I had a buddy helping me with harvest and this was the second time I had this Phenotype growing, she had shown major leaf curl and just a lot of unhappiness the whole veg and early flower, whereas the rest of the room had been really happy and loving life!
So, I didn't think much of it and the first round I grew her she didn't blow my mind(READ THIS!! The first time you run a seedling or the first cutting off a seedling through flowering you might not see this plants potential.) The second or third time you grow it it just might show you a better show, I'm not gonna go into the science behind this as I have no proof on why I feel this happens. BUT I can attest to it happening on dozens of occasions:D
So, to make a long story short I didn't smoke the first round of her as I had mega variety and the second round I didn't realize til about week 5 in flower that this plant was something special;)
So, to make a long story short I didn't clone her and when the end of the cycle came I knew I had to reveg this girl, which is not a favorite technique imo, ime. I had no other choice though, so reveg was on the menu for harvest:) Well, To make a long story short!
I had a friend helping with harvest, we had finished most of the stardawg and were getting to the three phenotypes of Banana Crack/FGB and one was ultra chunky but semi blandular compared to the revegger gal. That one wasn't a keeper and one was not my bag, but this third was seriously the best flowers I'd seen in a couple years hands down!
To make a long story short, I decided to go get a snack and some drinks from the kitchen while my buddy was working on the banana cracks, I told him maybe a half dozen times in 5mins, "Don't take all the branches off that one there, make sure to leave the lowest branches cause I'm gonna reveg her! This is of the utmost importance I stated..." I went up for foods and bevies and a couple bowl loads, tuned out to some music and a couple bowls for 20mins, got my last bowl downed and headed for the room:cool:
I walked in and handed the person a drink, some snackies and a fresh bowl, said it's all yours, I'm fresh baked!
I put on a fresh cd and cracked my beer, took a sip and put it on the stereo shelf, donned on my gloves and got ready to scope this amazing girl up close and personal...To make a long story short, I did a double take, maybe a triple take and realized I saw the BCrack phenotype I wanted to keep was all hung up and big leafed:mad: So, to make a long story short, I reminded the person that this was the wrong one you kept some branches on, it was the super chunky blandular one...so, to make a long story short I lost that one.
I started all the rest of my FGB/Banana Crack seeds and to make a long story short I didn't find one as good as that one...
She was sparkly, so frosty, killer bud to leaf ratio and had this unreal sugar pineapple that was a real rich odor with a deep OG back end on it...
