Hello and thank you for stopping by. This is the start of week 4 of flower for this Purple Punch Auto from Barney's Farm. She has been rather easy to grow so far. She is stretching alot more than the other autos next to her and taking her sweet time to make new shoots and bud sites. She will have heavier yeilds than the other autos I am growing but will take alot longer, perhaps 3 more weeks than some of them. But very much enjoying growing her and sometimes the best things in life takes time. My expectations are high on this one.
I have added a tablespoon of the 444 to the feedings schedule. The 444 from Down To Earth has dolomite in the recipe which will supply the plants of plenty of calcium and magnesium for these later stages of flower.
The 484 has a lot of beneficial bacteria such as humic acid. Humic acid is a group of molecules that bind to, and help plant roots receive, water and nutrients. High humic acid levels can dramatically increase yields. Humic acid deficiency can prevent farmers and gardeners from growing crops with optimum nutrition. 484 is also containing seabird guano. Seabird guano dramatically increases both the quantity and size of blooms throughout the flowering period for all indoor and outdoor plants. Seabird Guano greatly enhances beneficial bacterial activity in the soil, and it makes an excellent tea or foliar spray when filtered.
The 444 has dolomite and basalt. Basalt brings in much needed micro-nutrients to deficient soils, and helps your plants uptake other nutrients. When your soils nutrients are out of whack, the uptake of one of more other nutrients may be effected. Dolomite Lime enriches soil with calcium and magnesium while helping to regulate and raise pH levels.
Mixing these two together is a great formula for these late stages of flower with some worm castings in the mix. Worm Poop well mixed into Coco improves soil structure. Worm poop as more humus than traditional compost or normal garden soil, worm poop increases the water retention in Coco, improves soil aeration and anchors plants nutrients that would otherwise leached away with water. Stay tuned next week as this beautiful girl is going to pack on some weight this week! βΊοΈ
@SegaYGriega, Thank you! I don't think its stunted lol. I count the days from it was an actual seed not when it popped. If it's the number of days you are referring to? βΊοΈ
Nice strain i got the regular version of them i wonder if they all turn purple, if u like purple the fastbuds Blackberry always turns dark and pretty fast too (10week total)
@Lazuli,How did you like the blackberry? How did it smell and taste? Did it pack a punch? I'm growing a purple lemonade too and is already deep purple in week 3 of flower. I'll have to check out your purple punch! βΊοΈ
Good luck with this grow, I've grown a purp from these guys and it was a cracking flower!!! If u have time come check out my GSC and crystal candy's autos growing in autopots!!!
