Purple Punch #1

Welcome back to the Purple Punch grow! Starting to move into the final stage now, so shoul dbe looking forward to seeing her fatten up the buds she has right now this week and next. Day 49 - height: 14" She has stayed very stocky and low, maybe from early stunting I'm not sure, but has started to bulk up and become really bushy and fat now. I really like her structure though and she should be really interesting by the time she finishes and be all stocky low colas. The dark purple buds keep coming which looks amazing and some of the pistils starting turning orange this week which made for a beautiful contrast to the flowers. She also started smelling more and more strongly these days and it's really a unique and weird scent. Very pungent, black pepper and fruits, really looking forward to how that is going to develop! Care wise, things are going okay, she still has the rust in her leaves which she had from week 2, but it doesn't seem to get worse and is very different to anything I've seen before. For a long time I thought it was a feature of the strain, but it's definitely coming out as rust now. I have no idea what it is though and it seems weird that it came out so early, doesn't seem like a deficiency thing, so I wonder of it's not just some kind of disease or something. That might also explain why she stayed so stocky, who knows. Otherwise though she looks healthy and looking forward to some progression in the buds this week!
