Nearly at week 7 of veg, should flip to 12/12 soon as I don’t want it getting too tall as my tent is only 60cmx60cmx160cm. Going well so far,just been feeding with water mainly and an occasional top dress of dried kelp, bokashi,Ecothrive lifecycle and malted barley. I also have an Aloe Vera plant which I use to make a fermented juice which I feed to plant every few weeks. Fingers crossed this turns out nice,already smells really strong !

Getting some bud action happening now🙏😁 ,still growing well and healthy but I accidentally snapped a couple of branches off whilst spraying with neem oil last week ,so haven’t got as many tops as I would like 😒. But these things happen and you live and learn and hopefully I won’t make that mistake next time. This to me was just a little experiment to see what organic growing is like and to see if the soil/little jungle I made was up to it, and so far I’m impressed, much easier than the usual grow with chem nutrients etc and the fact I have a 25gallon pot , I’m watering far less than I normally would. Next time i will be more experienced in organics and I will probably get a more powerful light and hopefully grow an organic beast! 😁 oh yeah I also have a little fella growing next to the big sherbet punch which is Mac 1. This was planted at the same time as the sherbet punch but did not sprout until about 2 weeks! It has looked small and sick from the start and I just thought it would probably die but it looks a bit better now. They were really cheap seeds from a not very well known seed bank so I think it’s probably poor genetics.

Day 57 now, nearly there!😁 Wow this smells ridiculous 💚 If I had more time to train properly and a bit more space I believe this could of been a huge beast of a plant, I made the mistake early on of accidentally snapping a few of the main branches so it will affect my final yield but the quality seems to be there 👌The little runt of a Mac 1 on the side has livened up a bit as well but nothing compared to the Sherbet Punch. Can’t wait for chop time😬🤩

Happy Harvest Day!

Amazing strain ! Deep green and purple dense nugs, tastes like it smells - very danky, fuel , orange and grape. A very potent and relaxing strain, starts off in the head and behind the eyes with a soothing head buzz then just melts down the body leaving you feeling totally at ease and relaxed but still able to be active and social, lasts a good 2-3 hours😀

Using the Ts1000 (150w) and my organic/ living soil I managed to get 94g which I’m happy with for my first try at organic in a 2x2 tent . The quality of the Sherbet Punch is amazing, nice dark green and purple dense nugs, tastes like it smells - very dank orange, gas and grape, very relaxing indica buzz but not too much couch lock, would definitely grow this again, top quality stuff👌😀

@Noxe7, greetings 💚 I didn’t think it was light stress tbh because the tips have been like that from the start and the little one which is nowhere near the light , probably has more yellow tips. My light is 15 inches away from the big one and is only 150w. I just thought my soil might be a bit hot with the amendments I used but I might be wrong ,thanks for the input tho👍✌️
