haeknp3nnr Day 16 (PB) / 13 (PM) - watered them with ~ 1 L de-chlorinated tap water every 3-4 days increasing the dosage. Added 0.19 g epsom salt / Liter due to heavy Mag-deficiency of our tap water (CalMag ratio @ 18:1) - Purplematic seem to have more trouble with low RH (47 % @ 27-29 °C) due to current weather conditions. Leaf tips curling/crinkling upwards i guess 😕 - in two days or so i´ll consider training the Purple Bud Auto ... I´m thrilled to see what GHF Bio fertilizer is capable of 😊

haeknp3nnr 07.08. - needed to remove the top of the Purplematic as it shaded the lower nodes big time - Purple Bud is looking good sofar - nothing to do her - watered both plants with ~ 1 Liter of dechlorinated tap water with 1 tblsp. GHF Enhancer 04.08. - the Purple Bud Auto is growing nicely - after topping her the other day she´s recovering very fast and i decided to remove some more foliage and nodes that i consider too much - still hoping the predator mites doing their job. A lot of fungus gnats airborne - increasing the watering dosage

haeknp3nnr 15.08. - watering day. About 1 Liter dechlorinated tap water - minor defoliation - adjusting LST 13.08. - soil was still moist so i´m waiting another 1-2 days to water them - defoliated the Purple Bud (PB Auto) one big - hopefully last - time during veg - for the Purplematic (PM Auto), i´ve just removed some upper fan leafs shading the lower nodes - adjusting the training stakes - they´re about to flip into flower very soon 12.08. - the Purple Bud Auto is doing great. She´s also showing signs of maturing; not flowering yet - the Purplematic Auto is - literally - a few days behind. She´s also showing some signs of maturing ... a little early - just watering the plants, when dry - adjusting the training stakes & defoliating when seem necessary

haeknp3nnr 19.09. - the PB Auto doing well. She´s stacking some nice buds starts to smell nice. She´s a heavy drinker - i´m dissapointed with the PM CBD. While visual appealing, she smell´s very "planty" and nothing like advertised. Being very small & compact, too, i do not expect any decent outcome. Don´t know if she´s unhappy with her pot being to small

haeknp3nnr 26.09. - top dressed the PurpleBud Auto with a couple of tblsp. GHF BioBloom, Soft Rock Phosphate and Bokashi + as booster to the end of her life cycle - the leafs now transition from yellow to purple ... still missing the eponymous color "Purple" in the flowers ... - Purplematic CBD remains very short 'n compact. Don´t expect much yield ... pitty 24.09. - leafs started turning yellow. Is that normal after 40 days of flower ?

haeknp3nnr 19.10. - defoliated her again by removing curled / dry leafs - didn´t water her for 4 days straight now ... - she somehow stopped to develope milky trichomes ... instead, they´re skipping milky and get amber ... she seem to be stressed somehow I hope the dry spell will trigger her.

Plant was really compact. Not much yield expected. The plant seemed good-to-go in veg, but stopped growing week 3 - 4 almost entirely. Dunno if it´s due to overfertilizing her with Grow amendmends ... but the Purple Bud Auto showing same signs (3-finger leafs, compact growth). I´ll definitely grow her second time ! Then i´ll draw my final conclusion.

Finally chopping her down ! She looked quite dry and somewhat sad :-) 176 g wet & trimmed plus 25 g trim left overs going into the freezer. The buds are nice and compact and the smell is amazing ! Can´t wait vaping it. But for now she´s drying for 5 days in the Cannatrol !
