Dutch Passion Power Plant Auto

Is it Week Twelve / Week Seven of Flower already! It seems like we just began yesterday...not!😛 With twelve weeks of initial growth behind her now, the Dutch Passion Auto Power Power Plant is a totally different plant now, and has transformed into another BEAST of a plant from Dutch Passion! 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 floral, almost Lilac or Lilly, aroma is classic Power Plant. It is very familiar to me as I've cultivated the photoperiod variety several times and one I'll never forget...AMAZING! 😍 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 84 days from seed, Day 47 of flower which is right on par with Dutch Passion listing her as a 12-13 week strain. 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 going on, which being on the 'cold' side of the tent has most definitely helped with. Her cola's are long and stacked THICK with abundant trichomes covering them with a frosty glistening and her classic Power Plant floral 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 with a 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. She has undergone a tremendous transformation form where she was 6 weeks ago! She has the most amazing fades I've had on a cultivar in quite awhile, and her flowers have developed into these tall, thick resinous cola's that are breathtaking to look at! I gave her pot a 1/4 spin and left her alone! I've been checking her trichomes daily and will check later today and see if it's her turn to 'go dark'! 5/23- Well...I can honestly say, after all we've been through together, that I've fallen in love with this girl! She was bitchy, fussy and gave me sleepless nights, but I never gave up on her. In the end perseverance paid off, and resulted in another EPIC example of the quality of Dutch Passion genetics! Today I brought out the 'scope' and did a thorough check of, and photographed her trichomes. They are right where I prefer them for this strain so tonight, just before 'lights out', I'll be placing my lady in the dark for 48hrs to put the final touch on her! In preparation for her two days in the dark I watered her for the last time today with 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℉. I'll be posting pictures of her when she comes out of her 'dark time' and then she'll be more than likely cut off at her base and hung whole to slow down the drying time as much as possible as our weather is HOT and DRY now which makes keeping the Drying Room environment on point extremely important to get that 10-12 day hanging time that really helps start breaking down the starches in the plant. 5/26- Today was her time to 'Head to the Light'! She finished her three days in the dark and she's ready to be hung. I decided to go ahead and just take her off at her base (oh I hated to see her go!) and hang her whole. She's very bushy, with some fairly large cola's, and I'm hoping hanging her whole will substantially slow down the drying process. I'd like to see her take 10-12 days to dry which will ensure some quality smoke once cured! 😋 ~Thank you so much for following along so far! I hope you'll continue to follow along as my lady prepares to be harvested and we get some final numbers on this phenomenal cultivar from Dutch Passion... Grow Strong! 😎🤙🏼💚~
