I don't think that fly will harm your MJ.

Well I added my bananas a little late. I think I started them around a month of veg. I got 2/2 females though, so take that for what it's worth

Hey guys...

I've been watching this from the beginning so I don't think I missed any questions, but I apologize if I did. Anyway..

1. When trying this with an autoflowering strain like LR2, since they can show sex in a 17-21 days, when would the optimal placement time be? As soon as it sprouts?

2. Say you were trying for 3 females and one male...would you just try and keep the bananas as far away from it as possible? Actually, I was thinking about this when I first started reading the thread and it was looking like 100% success so far, so it might not be relevant anymore.

Thanks!

As for #1, who knows? It probably hasn't been tried - you could be the first! It's all an experiment.

As for #2 I've decided not to take chances and I'm not using bananas on seeds I want to breed. With my luck (and history) I'd get all females.

Just to update though, the first AK got balls...and I killed it.
The second is a no show so far. I think thats a good thing, because most of the females in the past showed after the males did. I'm going to cut a few clones tonight and put one in flower- been alternating nodes for a week or so now....cmon banana!

EDIT- remember, these were hermie seeds, so I can't really say it didn't work for the first one....just couldn't un-hermie it.

Is timing a big factor, or do u just got to do it before it shows sex (obviously its needs SOME time) but really my question is how much?

i just put a banana in a pot of a 2 week old plant from from seed

thanks Blue, I love how easy it is

You put the banana under the plant at about 21 days, and leave it until day 35-40. You'll have to change the banana's out though as they'll rot and soon bring an infestation of mold and bugs to your garden.

BlueCheese, you may very well be a modern pioneer in MJ growing.
