Yo!!! Crazy week (or 2). Heat wave has been making my life hell and showing no sign of letting up. I thought it would be one, maybe two weeks of this then cool off so I was still using baby dehumidifier. Well, it got worse and stayed there, and overpowered the baby 'fier. I had to pull 3 plants, including the Punch 3.0 ๐ฅ๐. On the bright side, that was enough to make me spring for the big boy dehumidifier. I guess I'm almost a real grower now.
Punch 3.0 is actually a very fast flower. I had to pull around 6 weeks and it wasn't that far from a full finish. I was estimating 7-8 week range, and she got nice and frosty. I will run the second seed and hit her with a durable male.
Red Mandarine is doing great, looks to be on schedule with 8 week flower. I let her get kind of hungry before I fed her this week. Slight K deficiency but I'll feed her well this week.
GDP is so f'in beautiful but does look to be 11 week flower. Frosty and smells sooooo good. I will be chucking some pollen at a couple lowers tomorrow. I let the nutes run a little low on her too. Top dressed and hit with some bottle nutes to bring them back.
Slurricane is amazing as well, very strong all around and looks like she may be a decent yielder. I would love to see the frost go into overdrive soon I must say. She shows less nute deficiency than the other two but feeding her well this week also.
**7/5 - Red Mandarine starting to pack on some weight. She's getting green again, slowly but surely. Slurricane bulking and frosting up as well.
***7/6 Red Mandarine showing some color finally. Night temps are 80๐. I know it's lame but maybe a sign of a nice fade. Just hit 6 weeks so it's about fade time

Have fun!
@Growin_strong, I didn't mean to sound critical, it's just that I'm very interested in weight, watts, sqm, density, etc. I love statistics to compare and learn from, it's part of my process :)
Awesome grow though ๐
@Growin_strong, looking forward to seeing that ๐ต just ordered some red poison by sweet seeds hopefully I'll get some cool colors this next grow as well.๐
Plants are looking good. Im growing a purple punch 3.0 from in house genetics also right now along side a sugar cane from in house. Its funny to see you had lots of issues with the purp punch 3.0. So have i! So has a friend of mine. Im growing it in RDWC setup and my buddy in soil and we have both also had lots of issues. It looks like its flowering pretty well though! I almost killed her off and let the sugar cane fill the tent but im glad I didnt because she really exploded and has soo many tops.
@Growin_strong, Ah shit that kinda sucks! Mine has really taken off in flowering, the stretch is crazy on it! I may have underestimated just how much it will stretch unfortunately!
@trailerparksupervise,
Thanks! Hearing about the Punch 3.0 makes me feel better. It was very fast flowering. I lost control of humidity for about a week in this heat wave and had to pull it going on 7 weeks. Not too far from done tho. I am planning to run it again and hit it with some pollen.
@Grey_Wolf, I appreciate it, those were some of the pages I came across. The black cherry punch looks pretty sweet. I'm waiting for In House Cherry Breeze to get here, should've been last week!
Thank you very much for trusting our strains, and sharing your experience.
I see you haven't voted with a 6. Is there anything we can do better?
We hope you enjoy the harvest ๐
Sweet smokes!
