Critical Orange Punch - Dutch Passion Grow by Maestro Bud
MaestroBud Here we go! Critical Orange Punch has answered the call of life. It's the second time I've tried my hand at such a lively sativa, and this germination lived up to expectations.
I chose a simple but targeted approach: 18 hours soaking in distilled water enriched with 6 drops of hydrogen peroxide, to sterilize and soften the seed. After the regenerating bath, the seed was placed in the BioBizz Light Mix, a substrate that I consider perfect for this delicate phase.
In the soil I integrated a small but powerful combo: Dynamyco + Extreme Garden Root, two allies that never disappoint me when it comes to stimulating the roots right from the start.
To water? Only distilled water with a touch of Cellmax Rootbooster, just to give a boost without overdoing it.
The cotyledons have opened like two small green wings, a sign that the seedling has started off on the right foot. Now let's focus on growth

MaestroBud The little one has put the turbo on. After a perfect germination, the vegetative phase has begun: the first few days are always a mix of excitement and attention to detail.
The real leaves have peeked out, nice and wide and of a healthy green that gives hope for what is to come. It is adapting well to the Light Mix, and the initial combination of Dynamyco + Extreme Garden Root is proving, as always, a winning choice.
I am keeping the nutrition light, watering with distilled water and Cellmax Rootbooster, so as to encourage a robust root system before moving on to the full regime.
The humidity and temperatures are under control, the box is stable and ready to welcome the green explosion that awaits us.
Eyes open and hands light. The road is long but the direction is the right one 🚀

MaestroBud Critical Orange Punch took the start seriously: the second week of vegetative was all growth, roots and first real challenges.
Despite the somewhat disorganized departure for health reasons, I am now regaining control and she seems to have appreciated it.
The leaves have grown in volume and color, a sign that the substrate (Light Mix enriched with Mykos, Dynamyco and Rootbooster) continues to support it well. I started to gradually increase the intensity of the Phlizon FD9600, bringing it to 50% and keeping the sunrise-sunset effect active so as not to stress it.
Temperature between 23 and 25°C, humidity progressively decreasing around 60%, with constant ventilation to reinforce the stem.
At the end of the week I introduced a first light dose of pH Perfect Grow-Micro-Bloom, following the Master Recipe but cutting the doses to 50% for safety.
I begin to glimpse its structure: compact, vigorous and with that citrusy promise that can already be guessed.
