Week Eight of flower! 👏😎 With twelve weeks of growth behind her now, the #2 Seedsman LE Purple Punch Auto is stacking her flowers, bulking up and getting frostier everyday. The #1 pheno is hanging and will be trimmed and jarred in another week, this girl's not far behind and has maybe a week to go! They're both exceptional specimens of the strain and it's been exciting to see them go through this run with you. Thank you for following along this journey with me, growing these beautiful cultivars is always better with someone to share the experience with....come along and enjoy! 😎🙏
~Grown 100% organic in a 10g fabric pot with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium amended with 2tbs/g Down To Earth 4-4-4 / 2 cups/g Earthworm Castings / 1tbs/g Dr. Earth Flower Girl 2-8-4 and 1tbs/g Dr. Earth Bat Guano.
~24hr light cycle during germination / 19/5 light cycle for Veg & Flower
~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed, top dressed every 3-4 weeks and weekly Compost Tea's.
5/17- This lady's on 🔥🔥🔥 stacking some huge cola's packed with sticky icky dankness! Her aroma is similarly sweet like the #1 phenotype's but not quite as loud (hopefully this will change). What this girl lacks in smell, she more than makes up for in size, mass and overall sexiness! 😍
Today I watered/fed her 1g of de-chlorinated water with Fox Farms Cha Ching @ 0.5 tsp/g, Fox Farms Big Bloom @ 3 tsp/g, Fox Farms Tiger Bloom @ 2 tsp/g and Fox Farms Bembe @ 3 tsp/g. I then ph'd to 6.5 @ 1.4 EC.
I also went through and removed about a few leaves that were blocking bud sites form the light and turned her pot 1/4 turn.
5/19- I held off on her feed today and instead flushed her with 1g of de-chlorinated water with Fox Farms Sledgehammer @ 2 tsp/g, Fox Farms Microbe Brew @ 0.5 tsp/g and 0.5 tsp/g of raw honey added, then ph'd to 6.6 @ 71℉ 1.0 EC
She's at 81 days from seed, Day 53 of flower. I was unable to get any strain info from the Seedsman Seeds site on this strain. The closest I could get is a listing for Barneys Farm Purple Punch Auto which is listed as a 63 day strain, or a RQS Purple Punch Auto listed as a 70 day cultivar, neither of which line up with what I've got going on with this lady so I'm 'flying by the seat of my pants' on this one folks!
Her trichomes are just about where I like them, just about all milky with just a touch of clear and amber trichomes showing...only a couple days to go! I always have to factor into my harvest time the 2-3 days in the dark that I place all my cultivars in before harvesting them, as their trichomes will continue to mature in the dark.
She's got a gorgeous fade starting. Her cola's are long and stacked THICK with abundant trichomes covering them with a frosty glistening and her sweet candy-like aroma gets stronger by the day! 🤪
5/21- Today all she recieved was 1.25g of straight de-chlorinated water @ 69℉ which was ph adjusted to 6.7
0.2 EC
She is looking and smelling AMAZING! Her cola's are stacked now, hard as rocks and have a healthy coating of trichomes! I gave her pot a 1/4 spin and left her alone!
I'm checking her trichomes daily and will check later today and see if it's her turn to 'go dark'!
5/23- Today I gave her 1.5g of de-chlorinated water with 2 tsp/g of Fox Farms Bembe added (for a minimal amount of nutrients and some sugars that will fatten up the flowers a bit more) which was than ph'd to 6.7 @ 68℉.
She's on nothing but flush now as her time is nearing quickly! I'm checking her trichomes daily with the 'scope' at 100x magnification so no miscalculations are made on when to pull her....They're close and have only a few more days at best.
~Thank you so much for following along so far! I hope you'll continue to follow my journey as things will be getting more exciting as the flowering finishes up on the #2 beast, and we await the final weigh in on the #1 pheno... Grow Strong! 😎🙏~
