all_about_420 Germination complete: 48h from seed to plug.
The permanent marker has now moved into the mini greenhouse
and is benefiting from maximum humidity and soil warmth via the heating mat.
I would say, a successful start.

all_about_420 Unfortunately, I've been a bit short on time this week to take better care of my girl. So she was able to grow a bit more in peace and prepare for the upcoming challenges by developing her root system further and gaining some size. That's not a big deal since she's going to be topped anyway...

all_about_420 So, the little one has landed in her final pot and from one main shoot, two have formed. I'm going to give her a few days to recover before continuing with training and the next topping. In the meantime, the side shoots can grow nicely, so that a nice closed canopy develops. So far, the genetics are making a strong impression, so I think she will handle all of this well. That's a good thing because I have a few plans for the beauty...

all_about_420 LST-Phase
Die Permanent Marker hat ihren Platz im Endtopf eingenommen und wurde diese Woche intensiv dem LST unterzogen. Durch das gezielte Runterbinden öffne ich das Zentrum der Pflanze, damit die Seitentriebe kräftig aufschließen können. Bisher verarbeitet sie den Stress hervorragend; die Struktur wird deutlich buschiger, bevor ich in Kürze mit dem nächsten Topping den finalen Shape festlege.
all_about_420 The permanent markers from @TRAPHOUSE_GENETICS have mastered the eighth week of vegetation with flying colors and have nearly completed the recovery phase after the final training. The growth is now showing its usual dynamism, allowing the plant to gain height in the remaining days before switching to the 12/12 light cycle. With a strong foundation and an optimally prepared structure, it is now just about to transition into the generative phase, with the vitality of the genetics providing a promising basis for the upcoming stretch in flowering.

all_about_420 In der dritten Blütewoche der Permanent Marker stand die Vorbereitung auf die finale Bud-Produktion im Vordergrund, was am letzten Tag der Woche durch ein konsequentes Lollipopping abgeschlossen wurde. Während die Trichombildung an den jungen Blütenclustern bereits von selbst kräftig Fahrt aufgenommen hat, sorgt das Ausgeizen im unteren Drittel nun dafür, dass die Photoassimilate ab sofort ohne Umwege in die produktiven Bereiche gelenkt werden. Durch diese anatomische Optimierung wird die Luftzirkulation im Bestand signifikant verbessert, sodass die Genetik von Traphouse Genetics mit maximaler Energie und einer perfekt fokussierten Struktur in die nächste Blütephase startet.

all_about_420 With the consistent lollipopping at the end of last week, the foundation for the fourth flowering week of the Permanent Marker was laid. The genetics from Traphouse Genetics responded with impressive vitality and uninterrupted trichome production, which already manifested early on the young flower clusters. By focusing energy on the apical zones, the internodes are now super compact, indicating that the intense topping will lead to the formation of several magnificent, long colas. The even development across the entire canopy confirms that the intervention was anatomically perfectly timed, and the plant is now starting the phase of massive flower development with maximum strength.

all_about_420 Taking a look at the fifth flowering week of the Permanent Marker from Traphouse Genetics, the plant is in absolutely top form, with the generative development proceeding exactly as planned. The dense, deep green canopy is a testament to optimal nutrient supply, while the flower calyxes are differentiating undisturbed and already significantly gaining mass. The compact internodal spacing, a result of successful lollipopping and topping, is now leading to the formation of several pronounced, long colas. With this picture-perfect development, all anatomical and physiological prerequisites for a bountiful final phase of this promising genetics are in place.
all_about_420 The ripening process of the Permanent Marker reaches a new level of intensity, with the enormous trichome production now coating every millimeter of the flower calyxes and sugar leaves with a frosty veil. This massive resin formation makes the colas shimmer under the light and showcases the exceptional quality of Traphouse Genetics. As the buds continue to gain density, the stigmas are increasingly darkening, signaling the approaching finale of the flowering phase. The plant stands strong in its juice and focuses all its energy on terpene enrichment and swelling of the calyxes, making this run a true highlight.

all_about_420 The Permanent Marker is approaching the final ripening stage in big strides, with the flower clusters now achieving an impressive density and weight. The visual highlight remains the excessive resin formation, which lies like a thick layer of ice crystals on the compact buds, emphasizing the top-notch qualities of Traphouse Genetics. The anthocyanin coloring on the leaf stems contrasts wonderfully with the deep green of the fan leaves, while the bright orange stigmas almost completely sink into the swollen calyxes. Everything about this plant now signals the maximum concentration of secondary plant compounds and terpenes, making the upcoming conclusion of this run a promising experience for any trichome enthusiast.
all_about_420 The crowning conclusion of an impressive test grow for Traphouse Genetics is just around the corner, and the Permanent Marker has more than met all expectations for high-end genetics. The anatomical structure shows a fascinating vitality all the way to the end, with the resin gland coverage particularly impressive: As clearly seen in the picture, even the very bottom bud has an extreme density of sticky resin, which speaks to the enormous potency and light utilization of this strain. The terpene profile is now fully developed and impresses with the strain's typical complex blend of sharp fuel notes, floral undertones, and a distinctive chemical sweetness that lives up to its name. This test run was crucial in determining whether the strain will be permanently added to the lineup, and based on these results, I definitely tend to give it a permanent place. With perfectly matured trichomes, this project concludes with an absolutely top-notch result for Traphouse Genetics.
Final Report: Permanent Marker
Traphouse Genetics | Test Grow
1. Vegetative Phase
The Permanent Marker started with impressive vitality, germinating within just 48 hours. From the very beginning, the genetics showed remarkable adaptability to intensive training; through targeted Low Stress Training (LST) and strategic topping, the apical dominance was broken early on. The plant responded with vigorous side branch development and a very flat, homogeneous structure. By the end of the eighth week of vegetation, it had developed a robust foundation that ensured smooth nutrient uptake and created the ideal base for the later flowering load.
2. Flowering Phase
With the switch to the 12/12 light cycle, a powerful yet controlled stretch began, perfectly filling the prepared structure. A crucial intervention was the consistent lollipopping at the end of the third week, which the lady handled without any signs of stress. From the fifth week, a massive swelling of the flower buds was observed, with the internode distances remaining very compact. During peak flowering, several massive colas formed, achieving exceptional density and weight.
3. Harvest & Finale
The harvest time was precisely timed at an amber ratio of 10 to 20%, after the plant had been thoroughly flushed. On harvest day, the Permanent Marker presented itself as a true "Frost Queen": The buds were rock-hard and covered in an excessive layer of resin that enveloped even the lowest flowers completely. The visual contrast between the dark leaf colors and the sparkling carpet of trichomes underscores the high-end level of this strain.
4. Aroma & Terpene Profile
The terpene profile of this genetics is absolutely distinctive and lives up to its name. It features a complex, pungent mix of chemical sweetness and fuel notes, accompanied by an elegant floral undertone. This intense "gas funk" provides an enormous presence that filled the entire space during late flowering, highlighting the quality of Traphouse Genetics.
5. Conclusion & Quality Assurance
This test grow for Traphouse Genetics was a complete success and exceeded expectations for a modern top strain. Due to its top-notch performance, inclusion in the permanent lineup is highly recommended.
Growth: Excellent response to LST and topping.
Yield: Above average due to extremely dense and heavy flower clusters.
Resin Coverage: Exceptionally high, with a sticky layer down to the lowest levels.

all_about_420 The day of harvest has finally arrived and the result is simply impressive. The Permanent Marker presents itself as a true "Frost Queen" with massive, resin-coated colas that exhibit an extraordinary density and quality. After the consistent lollipopping and targeted nutrient management, the plant has invested all its energy into the formation of these top-quality flower clusters. The genetics from Traphouse Genetics have convinced across the board and deliver, in conclusion, a visually and aromatically outstanding result. A perfect conclusion for this run before it now goes into the drying phase.
In parallel to this success, a second Permanent Marker is already maturing, which is being supplied with Advanced Nutrients instead of BioBizz. I am extremely curious to see how the final result and the terpene expression will differ in a direct comparison of the two fertilization systems.
