This was a freebie auto seed I got from GYO along with my Strawberry Cough order.
Thought I would get it outdoors and let it do its thing before the end of the summer.
She germinated in less than 48 hours, and seems to be growing well already.
Will be using the same setup as the other plants:
Soil - ProMix Organic + sheep's manure + perlite + vermiculite
Nutrients - Muskie 5-1-1 organic for veg, molasses for flower
FruitPunch is supposed to be a great strain, looking forward to this one!
Growing well! Crazy hot week here, but she seems to have enjoyed it.
Gave a very weak first feeding with 5-1-1, no ill effects as of yet.
Will transplant into final pot this week.
Growing well!
I was away for a week so missed the update, but all looks good. Starting to see some preflowers I think; shouldn’t be too long now. Just going to let this one grow naturally without any LST to see how it goes! Loving the outdoor summer auto grows 👌
Great week. She is really starting to put off some flowers. And they smell great! Similar to the strawberry cough but a little more sour I'd say. Nice and fruity though.
Started with an organic bloom nutrient (2-8-8) so look forward to seeing what that can do! Defoliated a couple lower branches too.
Looks like she is doing well, and bulking up. The smell is amazing. Very fruity and sweet.
Will do another feed this week with the Dutch Nutrients organic bloom 2-8-8, likely half-strength.
Just letting her do her thing.
Fattening up! Switched to Advanced Nutrients Iguana Juice - Bloom (finally managed to find an organic bloom nute nearby!)
Lost the two lowest branches to what must have been a squirrel or a racoon, they were broken off. I trimmed them and they're drying - they seem alot more mature than 4 weeks so we'll see!
The smell is just amazing - super fruity. Looking forward to some further fattening over the next 3-4 weeks!
She is really looking like she is close to being finished, despite only being 5-6 weeks in. Trichomes are very milky and a number are amber....not sure why this would be happening so early.
Going to post a question and see what everyone thinks. Either way she looks and smells terrific. Can't wait to test her out.
Any thoughts on these trichomes? Plant is only about 6 weeks through flowering, but the trichomes looks super milky and somewhat amber, and its about 80% red hairs. Strain is supposed to be an 8-9 week flowering period.
I prefer higher proportion milky, but this seems early....
There are quite a bit of milky trichs, but also I do see a fair amount of clear as well as a few ambers. I think you still have 2 weeks minimum if not longer. Those buds look like they could still bulk up some more. For reference, almost every time I've grown ive had to let them go 1-2 weeks beyond the breeders estimate to achieve peak potency. So just keep that in mind and keep an eye on things. I personally shoot for 10%-20% amber and less than 5% clear. If you can take some pics even close and more focused on the buds themselves it would likely be easier to tell. I use a legit USB handheld microscope to check my buds so I can get in nice and close. Also, keep in mind that some of those that are only slightly milky may actually be clear but your lighting could be making them seem milky. I usually only count milky as the ones that are really cloudy and white.
(Smoke report to come!)
This plant was great to grow! Very hardy, didn't have any issues outdoors. The smell is absolutely fantastic. She bulked up great, and probably would have continued but I had to chop before vacation. Would have liked to have seen a greater yield....every budsite bulked up well, but there just weren't that many sites.
Looking forward to trying the smoke after a couple weeks of cure - will update!
Might have been the fox farms soil, but mine needed a big CalMag boost at about 5-6 weeks. It really hurt bad cuz I misdiagnosed as P deficiency and didn't resolve til most the foliage was dead. She has held on though and the buds are fattening up. I already know they are super compact.
