my banana experiment

Ethylene is used to hasten fruit ripening, so it might help your buds reach their prime faster. I say its worth a shot to do both the banana peel with the seeds and then whole bananas with the plants. Hip hip hooray for bananas! I really hope they don't go extinct...

just from reading the first post about saying if you get 5 females bc of the banana does not mean that the banana is the culprit, too small of a sample size. 5 plants growing is not enough of an experiment to assume that's why they are females.

I went 12/12 with bagseed in an 8x4 tent with coco/perlite D2W hyddro, GH trio nutes (I know stfu) CFL/MH...thought it was a fucking miracle...my partner left peels all in the tent.

Its proven that decaying bananas produce ethylene, its proven that ethylene tells a plant it should decide to be female...

Its proven that the sex of the plant isn't determined until around week 3. Even with "feminized" seeds you can still produce a male if the conditions are shitty enough.

The science is there and my personal experience is there. I'm using fuckin' banana peels and any other organic mat that produces ethylene.

Thanks for the thread, Greenday.
Watching for the posts of those who are going to try to duplicate.
This is an 11 year old post. greenday hasn't posted since 2011. Someone just revived this old thread about stoner nonsense and banana peels.

Oh my! Thanks for pointing that out. I am guilty of lack of researching this topic.

Is this thread "nonsense"?
Looking for a second opinion.
(Still haven't researched this topic; I am also, lazy.)
