Purple Punch Auto - FastBuds

JuanHaze_Arg The vegetative stage begins Sunday, 24/07 marks day 1

JuanHaze_Arg The biggest of the 3 Fastbuds sisters. It only gets fed with water and cal mag. It's coming along beautifully and is already showing buds from the secondary branches. 04/08 Day 10 🚿 watered with 1 liter of water (2/3 reverse osmosis + cal mag from top crop + 1/3 tap water) + Amazonia roots 2g/L It has an amazing growth rate!

JuanHaze_Arg It's advancing very quickly. A little LST is done. It keeps growing nonstop, some pistils appeared on the main stem and the side stems started stretching, a single leaf that was covering the lower branches is defoliated. On 8/08, it was watered 💧 with 1 liter of water (1/3 tap, 2/3 reverse osmosis + Cal-Mag from Top Crop) EC: 0.6 PH: 6.3 On 12/08, it was watered with 2.5 liters of water PH: 6.2 EC: 0.6 to get a drainage measurement. In the drainage, the measurements were PH: 6.6 EC: 2.6 (very high) without using fertilizers yet. Upcoming waterings will be with plenty of water. More LST is done and I have to confirm that it's my favorite of the 3.

JuanHaze_Arg The flowering stage begins, there are already pistils at the tips and the stems are showing some bends. Sign of pre-flowering. 08/16 day 23, watered with 2.5 liters of base water mix from the tap with reverse osmosis water + cal mag. EC: 0.6 PH: 6.2 Drains 150cm3 EC: 1.5 PH: 6.5 Sprayed with big one 2ml x L (only foliar spray) Day 26 the plant is somewhat stressed, watered and after a day it regains its vigor. 08/20 watered with 2 liters of base water mix from the tap with reverse osmosis water + cal mag + 1 ml/L of big one + 1 ml/L of top auto. EC: 1.0 PH: 6.2

JuanHaze_Arg 23/08 day 30. The plant has been drooping since day 27, looking stressed and the newest leaves turning a pale green. I performed defoliation of the 4 oldest leaves coming from the main stem to let in light and air. I watered with 2.5 liters of water + cal mag + 1 ML/l of top auto since I didn't see a response in the plant from the previous watering, and I also sprayed bacillus subtilis from mamboreta. 8 hours later, the plant is recovering with energy. The bracts are already starting to turn purple! 💜 27/08 I watered with 2 liters of water.

JuanHaze_Arg At the time of stretching, I forgot the height of the lights and they caused some burning in areas more exposed to the light. It turned a bit yellow or lime green on some leaves. On 30/8, I watered with 2.5 liters of water (tap water mixed with reverse osmosis + cal mag) + 1.5 ml of top auto per liter + 1.5 ml of big one per liter PH:6.4 EC:1.3 Drainage PH:6.8 EC:1.5 On 01/09, I sprayed with BioTrap from Mamboreta (Bacillus subtilis) Day 30 2/09, I watered with 2.5 liters of water from the network plus osmosis plus cal mag + trico + PH:6.1 EC:1.0

JuanHaze_Arg 💜🥊 🚿 09/05 day 43 watered with 2.5 liters of water (70% osmosis + 30% tap) pH: 6.0 EC: 0.8 Drainage pH: 6.9 EC: 1.2 In the 3 plants, I have the substrate pH too high and I'm struggling to bring it down. The soil meter shows pH 7. Next waterings will be with pH 5.5 - 6.0 Our purple seems to have suffered from a manganese deficiency due to the soil pH 7, it's tough to lower the soil pH but I'm doing it watering by watering. Its color is beautiful although some tips of the leaves more exposed to light have necrosis and are a bit pale. I managed to lower the ambient humidity to 40-50% 09/06 a defoliation is performed in the middle area of the plant 🌱 I'm really anxious to try this Purple Punch 🚿 09/08 watered with 2.5 L of water mixed with osmosis and tap + cal mag + BioEnhancer from Green House Feeding 1 g/L. Lowered the pH to about 5.0 to then add the prepared solution with a bit of separate water, ended up with a pH of 6.3 🚿 09/11 watered with 3 liters of water mixed 70% osmosis + 30% tap + cal mag + 0.1g x L of monster bloom. pH: 6.0 EC: 0.9 Drainage pH: 6.8 EC: 1.5, The plants were moved to a position with less light intensity and the lights were raised to 45cm.

JuanHaze_Arg We're in the second to last week according to what the breeder indicates. But I'm almost sure it's going to take 11 weeks to finish well; new bracts and pistils are still growing. There's no oxidation or any signs of ripening. 🚿 09/14 day 52, watered with 2.5 liters of water mix as always, 30% tap water rested for 24 hours + 70% osmosis + 1ml x L of cal mag + 1ml x L of top auto. PH: 6.0 EC:1.0 Drainage: PH: 6.6 EC:1.5 At the moment the lights go off, I spray with bacillus subtilis, BioTrap - Mamboretá at 2g x L, soaking the flowers well and controlling humidity so it doesn't go above 50%. 🚿 09/17 day 55, watered with 2.5 liters of water mix 50% tap water rested for 24 hours + 50% osmosis + 1ml x L of cal mag. PH: 6.0 EC:1.0 Drainage: PH: 6.5 EC:1.8

JuanHaze_Arg Last stage of flowering, fattening and ripening stage, this week we will apply the last PK and start to slowly flush. The stigmas are starting to oxidize and the trichomes are still translucent, some milky white. 🚿09/20 day 58 as soon as the lights turn on, 3 liters of water are given with a mix of 20% tap water rested for 24/48 hours + 80% osmosis + 1ml x L of cal-mag + Monster bloom from Grotek 0.1gr x L. PH: 6.0 EC:0.9 Drainage: PH:6.5 EC:1.5 🚿09/23 8 liters of water with detox are given to start flushing the roots, drainage EC 1.0. The end is near and the leaves closest to the flowers have started to change color.

JuanHaze_Arg 🚿 Monday 26/09 - 2nd root flush watering. Watered with 8 liters of water + 3ml of detox per liter, EC:0.2 PH:6.3 Drainage: EC:0.7 PH:6.5 🚿 29/09 - 3rd root flush watering. Watered with 8 liters of water + 3ml of detox per liter, EC:0.1 PH:6.3 Drainage: EC:0.4 PH:6.5 This week I took a lot of photos because I'm eager to chop it down! Hahaha Still waiting for some trichomes to turn amber. The yellowing of the leaves has started.

JuanHaze_Arg 🚿 3/10 watered with 3 liters of detox water for the 4th root wash, the plant is almost completely yellow. There will be about 15% white pistils in the lower part of the plant. The trichomes are already cloudy and some are turning amber. I think this week is going to be the last! I'm going to keep her on reverse osmosis water only 💦 On day 74, I took the tip and left the rest to keep maturing. 🚿 7/10 watered with 2 liters of reverse osmosis water, without measuring pH or EC... the plant is almost completely yellow thanks to the osmosis water. Some amber trichomes peeking out among the milky ones.

JuanHaze_Arg Last week. With the tip cut off, all the buds that are left are at the same height so they can ripen as evenly as possible. The tip I cut is still drying, but the colors are truly amazing, full of resin. 🚿 10/10 it gets watered with 2 liters of reverse osmosis water without measuring pH or EC. The smell is exactly as described on the website. “Delicious blend of earthy cherries and blueberry muffins with a spicy touch will captivate you even before you can see the buds.” Last days waiting for the substrate to dry! On 13/10, the lights just turned on for day 81 since seed 🌱 I started the trimming. I'm surprised by the quantity and size of the buds.

JuanHaze_Arg Hello Growdiaries gardeners 👨‍🌾 👋 here on day 81 of life, 10/13 I cut ✂️ all the Purple Punch. 🥊 This grow left me impressed with the colors this plant gifted me week after week and the size of the secondary buds, which were almost the same size as the main one. Some rocks came out with bracts stacked on top of each other like foxtails, a delicious smell throughout the grow, first fruity, then it got a bit earthy, and finally ended with the scent that Fast Buds mentions in the strain description. “Earthy cherries and blueberry muffins with a spicy touch.” When growing autoflowering plants, we generally associate them with small plants of lower yield. It's a HUGE mistake we believe; these autoflowers explode and are worth the time I spent. One downside is the approximate time stated by the seed bank; at 9 weeks, the plant was still very immature to cut. Some think that autos indoors generate more electricity costs than photoperiods due to the 18 hours of light being on, but it should also be clarified that they need less power to develop without issues. With the lights on for longer, humidity stays lower, and the time with lights off is half that of a photoperiod, so the nights aren't as humid. This was undoubtedly the plant I enjoyed raising the most until cutting it; I hope it hits me like the name says! Thanks for all the comments and likes you left me throughout the whole cycle! 🙏🙏 Total dry yield: 67.6 grams. Excellent yield, more than happy!
