Week 1 of the DutchPassion Auto Critical Orange Punch, after doing this before and it showing a massive potential in growth but not fully being able too bulk up in flower due too in sufficient light, when I added the new light in the 2nd CP flowered crazy and gave me massive thick nugs compared too the first plant, so he we are again growing them once more too truly see thier potential, my new light is showing great things as my plants previously weren't this size or showing shape by week 2, let alone on the 7th day since they have been in soil, pretty good in my opinion. The new 480w Led is doing the work keeping temps at a much nicer level and also the PAR the light is putting out is so Mich stronger due too the SamsungLed Tech! 1008 of them in thier giving off white led light spectrum and 450 red epistar. Stay tuned too watch this - I've seen and heard and even from my last grow, realised this light is far superior too what I had. For £333 delivered and import tax paid you cannot go wrong, this matches £1000+ lights easily and also will easily create the same power and output as a 600w HPS but with less heat production!
Week 2 , day 16, the CP is 1 cm behind the other 3 plants in the tent, but everything is holding a good uniformed shape and thier definitely all growing well. Responding too nutes well again , possible little less growth on this plant as it's right next too my extractor so I think it's slightly colder than the other plants, but I cant do much about that due too the size of the tent. I'm working in 6sq ft and last time round pulled 150gs off 4 plants, nearly getting 1oz per square ft. This time round I want 2z per square ft.
New 480w Led is working great and showing extremely good growth and I'm definitely noticing the differences from having a better environment.
New fabric bags are working great too as extra air flow too roots seems too be helping alot with Growth. Definitely means I need too water more, but I'd rather have a soil that trys faster, than drys slower.
Happy growing and get out thier and grow it!

Week 3 day 24 - Critical Orange is putting on width and height, This plant looks much healthier than the 2nd COP I did in the last diaries, dont get me wrong it turned out fine and budded great, but always looked sickly with a lime shade of green going on yellow. The deep green of healthy plants is the only thing I can ask for. The rest will do it self.
Plant is at 23cm Minimal nutes 24 hours of light and slight defoliation too help premature bud sites.
Happy growing
Week 4, Day 34 - Critical orange Punch is staying uniformed as it did before but is growing great has many limbs and the structure is very tight again, I feel like with the new light the way my plants will grow now is into the shape of footballs, as the buds should stay very compact and the way I LST it keeps that tight noding and structure. I'm hoping that I can pull more than 45gs a plant this time, I'm more looking for 80 too 100gs per plant, which is achievable.
End of Week 5, day 41 - Currently measuring in at 54cm, making a large growth in the last week of 16cm, definitely in its Preflower stretch and plenty of pre flowers too be seen. One pre flower looking like a sunflower! Hopefully this yields as well if not better than the last time I ran it - the growth of this one is better than my last 2 in the previous diaries. Avg 5cm bigger than my others, about 4 days earlier than last time. I'll update in 4 days on day 46 too compare the results.
Happy growing

Day 49 - I wanted too do around abouts the same day as I did on my previous grow so I could compare sizes of plants. The C.O.P is measuring in at 60cm. The plant is showing no real deficiencies this is because I have mostly fed in PHd water and only really fed nutes when I have thought has been bare necessity. The plants seems too be doing fine without me pumping it full every other feed, all the bud sites are starting too thicken up and all the lower flowers are doing the same. Sweet smelling gass coming off of this I really cant wait for a dry product too smoke. Nothing obscure too report - 4 5 weeks left around 30 days odd. We will see.
Happy growing
Week 8, missed week due too being busy, this plant hasnt started too bud as if yet but is still in its pre flower, the last COP I did took 14 15 weeks too fully develop but turned into a beauty and this is probably going too be the same, but maybe a 12 weaker the way it's looking now. Lots of potential with all the trichs that are being shown right now!
Really starting too see the shine on these girls, thier coming down tonight so will do the harvest report in a few days. Buds are smelling very orangey and looking crystallized. Attempting my first Water cure on a 3.5 bud too see how it comes out.
Yet too smoke as it is going into the curing Jars. I have jarred one bud, water cure style, definitely looking forward too trying too the air dry cure compared too the water dry cure. I'll comment below how they were.
300gs wet, chopped down too 76gs dry, in my small room of about 6sq ft, I have pulled 252 grams off 4 plants, exactly 9 Ounces. All different strains, all resulting in organic flower that is super clean and very nice. Super happy with how this has turned out again. The 480w light definitely has made alot of difference
@DutchPassion_Official, Hows it going guys, So for me the water cure made my smoke alot less harsh if you're struggling to get a good environment too dry it in, my enviro is about the right temp, but the humidity is all out, at what temps and humidity do you find works best on a 10 too 14 days dry down? Btw, the water cure lost some flavour and aroma but I also think this is my lack of humidty in drying, but the smoke was so clean, I've never had ash so white, it burnt lovely and didnt smell offensive like that hay smell you sometimes get if you dry it wrong. All in all, if my dry process was better, water curing is for the win, because it saves 4 weeks after drying curing youre buds too get a nice smoke, this way I water cured for 4 5 days (I use biobizz nuts and last grow was very light ) so the water change everyday wasnt that dark, but I did notice some colour differences in the water, the colour of the bud cha ge too, alot darker green like the chlorophyll had broken down and all the trichs had gone a much darker orange than previous. I tried both ways this time and water cure was definitely better imo - I smoke for flavour usually but this was just some good old fashion nice clean ganja
Literally can see your plants have some sorta issues from week 2 upwards and I'm not even trying be a dick or anything. Trying say that with true honesty.
