Week 10 - Purple Punch Auto
All measurements are per 1L of water
Day 64 (Flower Day 36) - Week 10, its all gone by so quickly. Really happy with my new hobby. The girls are looking great, the smell is certainly ratcheting it up lately as well. I get faint whiffs of it walking by the tent even with the carbon filter. Today was a lower A&B / Boost and a higher PK day. I'll be doing PK three times this week then most likely stopping. I'm already worried how the harvest is going to go as the Critical Jack Herer looks 2-3 weeks ahead of the Purple Punch and I'll be needing to use the tent to dry. We'll see how this plays out but i dont see the Purple Punch finishing in 12 weeks. The feed was as follows: Water 0.2 EC added CaMg to 0.6 EC / 0.5mL Rhizo / 1.5mL A / 1.5mL B / 1.0mL PK1314 / 0.5mL Cannazyme / 1.5mL Boost for a final reading of EC 1.6 and PH 6.3
Day 65 (Flower Day 37) - Nothing to really report today. Humidity levels are ranging between 44-54% and temperatures 23-29c. Will update with more pictures tomorrow. Feed was as follows: Water 0.2 EC added CaMg to 0.6 EC / 0.5mL Rhizo / 2.0mL A / 2.0mL B / 0.5mL Cannazyme / 1.5mL Boost for a final reading of EC 1.4 and PH 6.4 - Will be adding another 1mL per liter of PK13/14 with tomorrows feed.
Day 66 (Flower Day 38) - Added some stakes for support to the Critical Jack Herer as some of her cola's getting a little too big for her to hold up on her own. The trellis net would of aleviated that but its too far down and i cant raise it without interfering with the shorter Gelato #33. All the ladies are doing great. Added the PK to today's feed, which came out to be: Water 0.2 EC added CaMg to 0.6 EC / 0.5mL Rhizo / 1.5mL A / 1.5mL B / 1.0mL PK1314 / 0.5mL Cannazyme / 1.5mL Boost for a final reading of EC 1.6 and PH 6.3
Day 67 (Flower Day 39) - Been a bit hotter here lately, battling to keep temps down, luckily the humidity has been low as well. Bumped up the A and B and Boost this feed, tomorrow another PK day and lower A/B. The feed for today was as follows: Water 0.2 EC added CaMg to 0.6 EC / 0.5mL Rhizo / 2.25mL A / 2.25mL B / 0.5mL Cannazyme / 2mL Boost for a final reading of EC 1.6 and PH 6.1 - More pictures to come tomorrow.
Day 68 (Flower Day 40) - Bit under the weather today. I'll post pics tomorrow to makeup for today. Nothing to report other than trying to keep humidity and temps down is a constant battle. The feed was as follows: Water 0.2 EC added CaMg to 0.6 EC / 0.5mL Rhizo / 1.5mL A / 1.5mL B / 1.0mL PK1314 / 0.5mL Cannazyme / 1.0mL Boost for a final reading of EC 1.4 and PH 6.4
Day 69 (Flower Day 41) - No more big amounts of PK however i will continue in small doses for about another week. Added some photo's including some closeups of the main cola's. The feed today was as follows: Water 0.2 EC added CaMg to 0.6 EC / 0.5mL Rhizo / 2.0mL A / 2.0mL B / 0.3mL PK1314 / 1.0mL Cannazyme / 2.4mL Boost for a final reading of EC 1.6 and PH 6.2 - Note that i upped the Cannazyme to help with the uptake of nutrients a bit more.
Day 70 (Flower Day 42) - End of week 10! I've decided (with the help of others) to delay any harvest of the CJH to coincide with the harvest of the others. It'll be a good education on the different stages of harvest. CJH will of course ripen first, and G33 and WW seem like they are in the same flowering position. PP is catching up fast by filling up nicely but she's still behind G33 and WW. So by waiting atleast until G33 and WW are done I'll have a good idea of the different stages. The trichomes on the CJH are about 80% cloudy on the main cola but much less on the lower Cola's so she still has a bit to go anyways. The feed today was as follows: Water 0.2 EC added CaMg to 0.5 EC / 0.5mL Rhizo / 2.0mL A / 2.0mL B / 0.4mL PK1314 / 1.0mL Cannazyme / 1.7mL Boost for a final reading of EC 1.6 and PH 6.1
Yoo Lith the garden looks pristine!! One can tell you did the research properly ;)) Plus the setup is top notch, looking forward to the flo phase! Good to see ya on this platform as well, keep it up - 99 donuts :P
Rumble in the jungle!! π²Wow.....coming on nicely brother and they're all developing really well π. As you say the timings going to be a little awkward with the various strains but what can you do man?
Super nice garden bud!!! π
@@Lit_1, I hear you completely bruv and let's just hope we're blessed with good conditions when our time comes!! On my first outing I definitely panicked and stopped drying way too early so I'll 100% be waiting for snapping stems this time......at least 7 days. It's about heat for me during drying so I'll see how it is nearer the time whether to leave some leaf on or not and maybe do a dry trim this time.......funny thing is I can't afford any smell leakage during harvest so I'll be jumping in me tent with me little baby and chopping her up in there!!! If I pull all the other bits out I might just squeeze in!! π
What a Fucking Beautiful Little Forest!!! ππ². All looking well bruv and I don't quite know how you're dealing with 4 ladies.....I'm just about managing 1!!
That goes for real life ladies too π
Blessings to you my brother π
@Bushbaby808, I been smoking for almost as long, 25 years but took breaks here and there....never been able to smoke my own though so i'm VERY excited about that prospect!
On the strain age i think it could vary seed to seed as even the same type of seeds will have different genetics. I think just watch those trichomes and let those be your judge for how much/little amber you want. With an Auto I suppose it wont vary as much as a photoperiod but I think because she's been healthy for the most part she'll probably be in that normal 70-75 range...maybe give or take a few days. With a photoperiod maybe it would be true as you could spend longer in veg or in flower but with Auto's i think we're actually on hard mode with getting everything right at very specific time periods and she'll do what she does in that condensed time frame no matter the conditions (just less or more yield) if that makes sense.
@@Lit_1, Love that, Cheers man!!! Like you I'm hooked on this Shit but then I've been a lover of Marijuana for over 30 years so it's about time I step up and produce my own Goodness. π Youre a dedicated Brother so I'm sure you'll be chopping up some super sticky icky Shit in no time!!
What's you views on this bruv.....I'm growing a 70-75 strain but due to a lot of LST and not so perfect conditions it could easily be 80-85 ah?
I wonder if I'd left her to just grow would it of been nearer that time scale?
@Hemporio_Afghani, Ya i've got a ton of jars in preparation for it all! Quite excited! I think its fairly safe to say i'm going to have more than 1g/w of yield. We'll see just how much.
Just looked over your babies again bruv and you've got some beauties.....Proper glad its all worked out nicely for ya!! That's gonna be a bumper harvest brother, you won't be back on here again for months man ππΏπ.
@Bushbaby808, According to the weather should be about 25c and under and 55% humidity. I'll try to keep the humidity a bit lower. Also going to be doing a wet trim. Yea we're going to have to find some good purple strains to grow for the colder winter temps!
@@Lit_1, Ahh nice man, enjoy the sticky fingerz and I hope it goes well bruv.....Will you be trimming up before drying and how's your conditions gonna be? I'm sure I'll have temps around 22-25β which I'm hoping ain't too bad but I'd love the option to go down to 18-20 if needed!!!
We can't have it all I spoze!!! π
Definitely doing a winter grow....ππ
@GrowerGaz, No worries. It's such a new light i kinda took a leap of faith getting it. However their Zeus pro 600w is pretty great so i figured these attis models couldnt be far off. I pretty much had to walk their tech team through getting me a PAR map (info wasnt on their website at the time). After our conversation they've since added it to their 'spec sheets'. So far I'm really happy with it. The ladies all seem to love it as well. Any other questions regarding it dont hesitate! I'm growing in a 90x90x182cm tent (3'x'3'x6'). You probably can get away with 4x4 foot tent but i wouldnt go any bigger.
@GrowerGaz, Ya 100%. I just adjusted the height. I last put the distance at 65cm but now they pretty much grew to 60cm distance. I'll try to maintain that. When they were seedlings and the distance was more like 90cm I think i experimented with 60% and 80% but i changed it quickly to 100% mainly for the warmth. Also have a humidifer in there, 60% when they were seedlings, now i let it be around 50%. In flower i'll drop it to 40% or slightly below. I also have a mini fan on top blowing on the LED which keeps it 'luke warm' to the touch, without it its pretty hot (it is a heatsink afterall).
@@Lit_1, But, the others are behind so who knows what's gonna happen with them little fuckerz!! Crazy when you think of her stretch and slenderness that she's produced such fruits......Wicked!! Chuffed for you bruv ππ
@@Lit_1, Hahaaa, indeedy bruv!! You're in for a bumper bush of buds.....great work my friend, real good to see them all doing so well and not far off each other it seems!! π
@Bushbaby808, Yea she's loving life! She's so close to the light but i think she enjoys it, cant really detect any light burn on her now that she's in full flower mode. She still looks about 3 weeks out I think at best though. I had a goal of 200grams total from my grow, but i think this hedge might give me that just by herself!
@GMSgrows, Thank you bredren! I really appreciate it. I'm quite excited to smoke what I've grown for the first time in 30 years of herb smoking. Can't believe I haven't done this sooner. What a great relaxing hobby!
Dude you killing it. That PP going to fill out and colas be falling all over the place. She stacks nicely, and looks like youβve given her a good home so you should be in great shape. Great pics too, all looking awesome, hope she continues to party for you.

@Greazy77, Thankfully i think she finally stopped stretching....i LST'd all the main cola's as well. She really seems to be focusing on flowering now which i'm thankful for! Next time i grow this strain i'll be topping and LST'ing the hell out of her, and most likely she'll be alone in the same tent. Cheers Greazy
@WitheredEye, Thank you sir! Just trying to leave myself some information for the next grow so as to improve upon it! I'm getting really excited about my first harvest!
@Bushbaby808, I'm thinking of planting these suckers as a hedge grove to separate my property line.... she's ridiculous! Maybe make a hedge grove maze out of them! π
Looking awesome man, those PPA grow big. Iβm with ya, for an Indica dom it sure Sativas! Ran out of height in my tent as well. Good luck rest of the way, gonna be tight in there for sure. Keep it realz.
Greazy
Nice nice brother, they've all put on some weight eh?
The Purple Punch is definitely punching man, she's massive with real nice thing bladed leaves!!!
Keep on doing what you're doing my friend ππ
