What i do now??? Now she iz look like
Here's an action list:
  1. Start by actually answering some of the questions in this thread.
    Medium / soil/Water / ph
    temps / rh
    etc.
  2. Follow up by getting some actual nutrients for your flowers in bloom
  3. Note that many people have said here "It looks overwatered"
  4. ????
  5. Profit!

Did you look into actual nutrients for cannabis in flower? Banana water alone ain't gonna cut it. Also review how to water properly for the medium you've planted in. While you're at it, read up on pH for cannabis.​

Why do all this if just a ph lockout?

Other than step 1 if he actually wants help, though I’m pretty sure when he sees ph in run off is bad he will get the idea

Plants look great otherwise

pH lockout isn't going to fix the overwatering. And if he hasn't looked up pH and how it works, then lockout won't make sense. Having a pH number doesn't give someone 'the idea' unless they know what it means. Also these plants are early in bloom banana water for the whole cycle isn't going to help in the long run. He came here looking for information on how to feed them this is part of the process.

I'd refine the 'plants look great' to 'the leaves are all pretty green'. Other than that, it doesn't look great and the OP knows that. That's why he posted.

My list basically has four things: answer the questions, find/use nutrients, learn how to water and figure out how pH works. That's it. To me that's not a whole lot of 'all this'.

This and many other grows from here forward are just practice. You will never it get it right the first go, probably not the second or third, maybe not even the 35th. Somewhere along the timeline some things will click and you will achieve a higher self (bongsmilie) and you will be a grow master.

It doesn't look bad considering.

I would be hesitant to make drastic changes at this point. Some tweaks, yeah for sure but don't change your whole game. Keep reading, discussing and watching. Revise your plan for the next round.

and as others have stated, answer the questions so that those in knowledge may bless you.

I don’t believe it is overwatered, I believe the leaves look like that because ph is off locking something/things out. I can only see curling leaves not drooping but my eyes are bad.

if that is the issue (ph), and it is corrected I believe they will look really great.

it is a very easy fix and the plants will respond quickly, that is why I am optimistic.

Other than that, I agree he should research what he is doing.

I don’t think he needs overpriced cannabis nutes and seeing as he is watering with bananas that really doesn’t seem his style and I agree with it.

kinda makes me want to start a seed in a banana, they have a ph of ~5-6

Banana Tea: Homemade Flowering Fertilizer
step-1-banana-peel-tea-marijuana-potassium-flowering
Homemade fertilizer is also an option that’s discussed in cultivation groups. It’s not only used to solve deficiencies but also to fatten buds during flowering.
You’ll find plenty of potassium and phosphorus, the key nutrients in flowering, in the peel of a banana, and the banana itself if it is ripe.
True banana tea is actually a cold tea, despite the fact that it is commonly used to boil. If you leave it to soak as an organic ‘waste’ in water for enough days, it will begin to pass its nutrients into the water thanks to the formation of bacteria. Otherwise, if you boil it, you will not get as many nutrients and many will be lost due to high temperatures.
How To Make Banana Peel Homemade Fertilizer The Right Way:
  1. Let the water sit for at least 24 hours to clean it,
  2. Cut the banana peels into pieces,
  3. Put the pieces in a jar filling about 5 centimeters,
  4. Finish filling up to 3/4 of the total content with water,
  5. Cover it with a rag,
  6. Let it rest in the fridge for 3-5 days,
  7. Stir it a couple of times a day,
Note: Gasses in the jar are normal. However, if you see any type of mold accumulation, you must start again. The tea should smell sweet and of banana. If it has an acid or rancid odor, do not use it, try again, leaving it for fewer days.
step-2-banana-peel-tea-marijuana-potassium-flowering
After a few days, all that’s left is to strain it — so as not to leave food scraps on the soil.
To water, first you must dilute the tea in standing water, 1 liter of water for every half glass of tea — or 1 part of tea for every 10 parts of water. Then water your plants normally. This banana tea will provide your plant with significant amounts of potassium and phosphorous, as well as other beneficial microorganisms for the substrate.
This will provide your plant with significant amounts of potassium and phosphorous, as well as beneficial microorganisms for the substrate.
Don’t apply it too often. Depending on the size of your plant, applying it to the irrigation water once every week will be enough. It is important to never overdo your fertilizers; it’s better to apply a little many times than a lot once and overdo it.

That's why growing is addictive :weed:
