So this time I have chosen to do the wonderful Barney's Farm Purple Punch from the reviews i have had read wow this strain looks amazing. Well it does feel good to be back doing what I love growing 🌿 As you can see these girls are flying already after only 7 days after planting them they are already needing to be re potted into bigger pots (tomorrow's job) I only hope they carry on growing like this Happy Growing 😁

So it does feel so good to be back seeing these girls grow and yes they have definitely grown this week a nice 5 inch, so in a couple of days I will be flipping them into flower once they have recovered from that last defoliation stage in veg, I'm so looking forward to seeing what these girls can produce, Happy Times 😁

So again this strain really does just impress you more and more the rate of growth on these girls in out of this world 😁 they jumped straight back from the mega defoliation last week and they have put on just short of 6inch in the first week 😮 can't wait to see what they have in store for me in the next upcoming weeks, Happy Times Happy Growing 😁 🌿

So again another good week for these girls packing on some size now, I did have a few issues after the last defoliation session I did with some of the main colas being abit top heavy so I have had to tie a few up hopefully these are promising signs of some huge colas, Happy Times Happy Growing 😁 🌿 Keep Safe

So there's been a few heat issues this week as the weather has been really nice so the temps have gone to nearly 30 degrees 🙈 so that's been fun to deal with, this strain is definitely not an 8 week flower more like 10 weeks flower but still looking good lots of crystals 😍 and the smell is 😋😋😋 Happy Times Happy Growing 😁 🌿 Keep Safe 😁

This week has been alot better with managing the temps so that's was a good start, I have definitely seen some size on the buds since last week 😁 so I stripped alot of the fan leaves off now since the girls are in flush so should see even more size fro now until harvest, Happy Times Happy Growing 😁 🌿 STAY SAFE 😁

So this week I have started to flush the girls as its been 10 weeks now so after another 2 week of flush that's 12 weeks surely they have to be ready but the hairs are still pointing straight out and are still white which is abit weird as this strain is supposed to be a 8 week strain 🤔, Happy Times Happy Growing 😁 🌿

So from the off this strain really does give it what for as they grow big quick which is always a good sign. So getting into veg they carried on growing really well and big especially the fan leaves and loved the training that I did. So going into the flower stage they grew at some rate so be careful about when you switch them as they do nearly triple in size just bare that in mind and it's definitely a 12 week flower not 8 ☹️ but we'll worth the wait😁 So overall I would give this strain a 7 would of been 10 if had been a 8 week strain. Happy Times Happy Growing 😁 🌿

Amazing looking plants. They always underestimate the flowering time . If it says 70 days you want to be doing around 90 to 95 to just to make sure they matured in mu opinion. They are looking fantastic

@NorthernGrowsUK, Cheers pal 👍, I'm just surprised as I was told there were a 65 day flowering time but more like 90 days 🙈 but its all worth the wait in the end 😁

@Kreewl, so they liked to be trained then, that's definitely good to know I was wondering if this strain liked it I couldn't really find anyone that had trained these before Happy Times 😁

I don’t think it’s a 12 week strain maybe a 10 at max. Respectfully speaking you did a great job and filled the tent with long buds! But I think ultimately the increase in temps slowed the flower period Could also consider using less magnecal late flower. Reduce it to 0.5ml/L I’ve had the same issue noticing the leaves getting greener during slower is a good sign to back it Calmag because it contains nitrates the plants suck them up when you don’t want them too. :) just my op I’ve had the same
