Week 9: Trichomes - The Jewel of Panty Punch Auto's Journey As we stand on the precipice of harvest, Week 9 of our cultivation journey with Panty Punch Auto beckons us to explore the mesmerizing world of trichomes - the tiny, glistening crystals that adorn her resinous buds. In this report, we embark on a deep dive into the nature of trichomes, their evolution, and their significance as Panty Punch Auto approaches the pinnacle of her growth cycle. Trichomes, often referred to as the jewel of the cannabis plant, are specialized epidermal cells that serve a multitude of functions. These microscopic structures produce and store a plethora of compounds, including cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids, all of which contribute to the plant's unique aroma, flavor, and effects. Throughout Panty Punch Auto's growth journey, we've watched in awe as her trichomes have evolved from mere specks to glittering clusters of resinous goodness. Their development follows a fascinating progression, beginning with clear, transparent trichomes that gradually transition to cloudy and finally amber hues as maturity approaches. This evolution signals the optimal time for harvest, as each stage offers distinct effects and flavors. In jest, we marvel at the sheer numbers of trichomes that adorn Panty Punch Auto's buds, jokingly attributing their abundance to the exceptional genetics provided by SeedStockers feed on Aptus Holland. Time and time again, Aptus Holland has proven their prowess in feeding top-tier nutrients to all my cannabis genetics, and Panty Punch Auto stands as a shining testament to their expertise. As we reflect on the journey from seed to harvest, it's impossible not to be awestruck by the sheer magnitude of Panty Punch Auto's growth. From her humble beginnings as a tiny seedling to the towering beauty she is today, every stage of her growth has been a testament to the power of genetics and nurturing care. She stands as a true giant in our grow space, a living testament to the wonders of nature and the art of cultivation. Throughout this journey, the Tent-X controller has been an invaluable ally, providing precise environmental control and ensuring optimal conditions for Panty Punch Auto's development. From maintaining temperature and humidity levels to record all data, the Tent-X has played a pivotal role in her success, allowing us to create the perfect environment for trichome production and resin development. As we prepare to bid farewell to Week 9 and embark on the final stage of Panty Punch Auto's journey, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to those who have supported us along the way. A sincere thank you to Aptus Holland for their exceptional Nutrients, SeedStockers for the amazing genetics to TrolMaster for their innovative technology, to Grow Diaries for fostering a vibrant community of growers, and to all fellow cultivators for their unwavering encouragement and inspiration. As we eagerly anticipate the moment of harvest, let us savor the beauty of Panty Punch Auto's trichome-laden buds and celebrate the culmination of months of dedication and hard work. Stay tuned for next week's harvest report, where we'll reap the rewards of our labor and toast to the success of another remarkable cultivation journey. Until then, happy growing, and may your harvests be bountiful and your buds be resinous! #PantyPunchAutoAdventure #RootsAndFruits #TrolMasterControl #GrowDiariesCommunity #CultivationExcellence Genetics - Panty Punch Auto - https://seedstockers.com/ Plant nutrition - Aptus Holland - https://aptus-holland.com LED Photons - Lumatek - https://lumatek-lighting.com Controls - Trol Master - https://www.trolmaster.eu/ Watering - myself Love and attention - Me, myself and i As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life, With true love comes happiness.

A step back recently: Started a final flush (2 days in), and decided to start feeding her again - thanks to some great GD input! 250 ppm at re-start and will work my way to 500ppm? She's still rockin' along - like nothing happened. She topped out at 350 ppm without tanking PH, so she is stable here. PH is now swinging down fairly quickly last 12 hours. Drained off 1/3 of reservoir and get reservoir down to 250PPM. 5 days later, major PH swings down again. Mixed another fresh reservoir. I am using Zero Water 5 gallon system, and just realized the PPM coming out was 100, and PH at 3! If I am at 100 today, that means these filters have been shot for a while, maybe since start of my PH issue. There is also interesting information about when zero water filters reach their expectancy. They put out fishy smell and otherwise. I will be watching my filters more often and taking more notes since this ZeroWater 5 gal system is really the way to go if you are only growing a plant or two. Filters are a bit spendy but when you take time, gas, convenience etc. its a no brainer (if the water coming out is zero:) - I get about 15 gallons per filter (175ppm from tap). Day 70. It’s been about a day since new res change. Steady Eddie at 250 ppm and 6.2. I’ll let her drink the bucket down a good ways if things remain stable with a drift down. I doubt it though, 5 gallon is fine for 12” autos but at 2’ she really needed 8 gal. Time to up the R&D on the cabinet! Also checked Zero Water again and filter is now putting out 200ppm of 3.0 water. New filters installed! Hope she finishes soon, the top of her canopy slowly getting cooked over the last 10 days. 8" of light distance is too little. PPFD 2000+ at the top, but leaf temps are in the upper 70's. Gotta hit a decent DLI on these lower buds - without nuking the top nugs, right?! As the week concludes, she’s in a fresh bath, at 250ppm @ 6.0 and running stable again. New water filters installed so zero water variable removed. Last serving of half+ teaspoon of GH dry KB ripening, and will reduce ppm by 25/day until I reach 10-15%. 1-2 day flush, if at all.

Runtz Fem (mother) is on week 8. It's been a somewhat slow grow. But, I've been able to make a perfect pheno that changed early into a bigger pot does have fast growth for this pheno. It's strong. Hardy & quick to recover & nor easily affected by any issues. These are the perfect traits for my test. It's not about yield. It's about having a quality flower producing pheno. Which I can put 2 clones thar come off the same node set (pair) and are even as clones in appearance & more importantly as genes you can test with in this setting. Week 8 Days 48-53 Day 50, she's ready to be cloned. She'll get 6 hrs of rest. I'll remove the clones and treat them in clonex with rockwool cubes. Have made a humidity dome as I can find the ones I bought years ago. But this will do till rooted in 4-7 days. Day 51 Day 2 clones have survived and going strong at 36hrs later you see they're doing well behind a big pot in my tent (more or less ambient light with a bottle keeping up high RH above 85%. Refreshing air everyday). Keeping my eye on the wool to make sure everything keeps moist. Will be putting both fully rooted clones into 7L pots of exact same mix of Promix soil & using the Terra line from plagron with power roots & Startup (which was gifted by my grow store). Only plagron will be used in these phenos. The mother will remain on Xpert Nutrients and not be given green sensation aswel ad 1 of the 7L clone pots obviously. 3 phenos of the same in all. 1 Xpert Nutrients (full line) 1 Full Plagron (with) Green Sensation 1 Full Plagron (without) Green Sensation 3 phenos 1 mother. 3 different results.

Buds are stacking nicely on every plant starting to get smells now. Cannot wait until they Start fading. It is one of my favorite parts of growing cannabis and fast bugs. Really knows how to steal the show when it comes to fade.🔥💯

This was one of my first grows back when I was using cheap red & blue LEDs and it still turned out okay, I was'nt going to put this grow on Grow Diaries because of the purple photos but I decided to anyway just incase anyone was interested to see, I would like to grow this strain again under better conditions.

Popped in a day and growing strong.

Patiently waiting and watering.

I want to thank all the growers that take the time to post their work and results, these journals were invaluable in my grow. I also want to thank Royal Queen Seeds for making such a resilient plant available to people like me... I really tortured this girl. Site update really ruined the experience of posting for me for the moment ... so Im going to take a break for a bit and perfect my craft on my own while it works out the kinks.... I cant post many pics, the order of which I can organize them is locked out or moves to another position, and it takes forever to fully load the page so I can edit or update. But I 'really' wanted to finish this journal, so here it is. I promise to be back better than ever once the site works it all out. Hopefully not too long. This was my first seed to weed grow and I learned a lot. I hope my notes, pictures, and videos benefit someone else as well. My results were not typical, Im sure I could have done better, and I will continue on my path to learning and becoming an experienced cultivator of cannabis with skills I can be proud of.

After 21 days in turbo cloner I transplanted 4 Sweet seeds Green Poison into 1 gallon plastic pots filled with Cana coco. Few days later I transplanted another 4 clones into DWC! Stay tuned! Coco feed at 700ppm Dwc feed at 480ppm

From what I've learnt since, by defoliating and not ensuring sufficient reserves in the Substrate after taking their reserves from the bigger fan leaves at strip, this left 1 pheno more hungry than the others, but still all 4 suffered to some degree which was really disappointing. I was too busy enjoying the festive period with family so its a good enough excuse! ;)

What a world of difference a week can make when growing auto-flowers. I did a lot of maintenance on these girls the last couple of days. See pics and videos. Two of the plants have stretched out nicely. The other three are falling behind, but looking very nice. There is a strong citrus smell happening right now. Smells like I have a tent full of fresh lemons. Started using Big Bud and Bud Candy this past week. Tent 2as getting quite crowded, so I also moved the water reservoir on the outside of the tent. It was very hard to cut a lot of those beautiful buds off the plants, but I think it will pay off. I also got the new Vivosun Grow Cams, so far I like them, but I do have some feed back.

Ok so finally decided to harvest the big beast of critical mass after a week of flush and two days of darkness shes finally down and in drying net will post updates on pics vids when its dried properly so harvested the big critical mass now have the 3 critical mass and 2 white widdow x big bud so taken a few pics will now push these over the next 4 weeks do some slight leaf stripping and then put on overdrive for last two weeks to get the best from this strain the longer u leave it the better the taste and overall flavour will be trust me guys

I am pleasantly surprised with this grow. This is my second time growing Cream Cookies and my yields have increased by 400%. Cream Cookies #2 was the heaviest yielder coming in at 224.04 grams wet. Coming in at almost a quarter POUND for one plant just makes me grin from ear to ear. Im so extremely happy with how ive been taking care of them. It seems that proper and methodical defoliation is the key to massive yields. Cutting fan leaves which block out a significant portion of the available light to the lower and developing bud sites proved to be a great choice. The plants look a little 'skinny' after defoliation, but the newly exposed bud sites explode into the canopy. Im just so very happy with how everything went. Haven't smoked yet its curing now, will update in two weeks!

Hey folks, as you can see, the ladies did not do well after the transplant. I have have burned the plants a bit by spraying them down with neem oil as a preventive maint. The next few days after spraying, it got really hot and I belive the spray left too much oil residue for the plants to transpire. Also to note that I did not take time to harden the plants. As usal watered the plants every 2-3 days with pH and mixed with 1tsb per gal of molas. New growth is looking good. I also topped them also.

Flower Day 55

Hi all 😁 Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update. Hope everyone keeping well and having a great week. Thank you so much for your all support on this bananas journey 💜💚💜💚 What a amazing week. Very little to work around those beauties. The smell is so delicious already. They smells like sweet berries. Buds are loaded with trichomes, very sticky and hard as rocks especially on Athena. Trichomes are mainly clear and some parts milky. Absolutely love power of LST and how it worked on this strain. If you won't look under net it's almost impossible to see which cola belongs to main stem. Week 11 Dec 25 - Dec 31 Dec 25-26 Joyful observation Dec 27 Selective defoliation and First watering for this week. Nutes adjusted, almost 8ltr between both. Runoffs PH on both at 6.2. I am finding this PH level for this strain as perfect. Girls are looking super healthy and drinking they mixture like crazy. Dec 28-30 All is going smoothly. I can see more and more weight each day. Dec 31 Secomd watering foe this week. 8 ltr beetwen both. It's the last day of this week and also end of 2023!! See you in the new year 🍾🥂🍀 Peace and love brothers and sisters ✌️💚 Links https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/banana-purple-punch-auto https://plagron.com https://www.biobizz.com/ https://fishheadfarms.com/

Ladies and gentlemen we are at day 89 and this girl is so stinky, it's ridiculous.. I appreciate Zamnesia Seeds and Plagron for putting this contest together... This girl has lacked nitrogen the entire grow.But we're nearing the end, so who cares.. I'm going to start giving her ice water to try to bring out some colors as we come to the last week or 2.. I'm looking forward to chopping her down and hanging her.. I hope everyone is doing well.God bless and happy growing guys ✌️. I'd like to add that.I think there's a chance at some point my PH was off because I fed her just like I do. Every other plant, and this is the first time i've had a plant struggle with deficiencies throughout the entirety of the grow, and I don't wanna put it on the breeder, because it very well could be my fault.And I just don't know..
