Update - 4th July 2021 Just still flushing away. The colours that are coming out are crazy. I have edited some pics but not videos and the videos dont really pick up the colour. Its strange that it started completely green and then went darker and darker until it reached purple buds covered in trichomes. I am planning on harvesting both this plant and the purple punch today or tomorrow depending on when i can be bothered lol Tbh, its not hard because i dry trim so it's just a case of plucking off the fan leaves and hanging it in different branches.

- Día 1 de la segunda semana de flora con riego foliar de calmag - Videos tomados día 2 de la segunda semana

I'm just gunna post videos until things get interesting, I'm not winning any awards anytime soon anyways on here but when it counts In the last few weeks I'll do the pics. Its day 31 here and everything looks pretty good.

Everything is going great!

- Purchased an AC Infintity Cloudforge Humidifier - Switched to flower nutes - Installed Trellis Note: - No more apparent deficiencies - Surprisingly there is very little stretch

Day 75 to the big one, the other one nobody knows we got to keep vegging til my room ready FFS Beautiful root

She so bushy bud are everywhere some off them can get really light I wish I was defoilated them but it's okay I let her grow till day 90 let see the result thanks for reading and looking into this diary happy growing I add bio heaven for bud denser recommend by grower friends 💚

Muy satisfecho con la de ramas que esta dando, todas tienen cálizes y un olorsito que alimenta. Unas puntas amarillas en las hojas recién salidas, pero no suigio avanzando despues de echarle top blom, supongo que seria alguna carencia que justo el top blom me lo a dado. perfecto todo, cada 2 dias 200ml de agua con solución a cada planta. Todo en un armario de 60 x 60 x 140, espero no tener problemas de espacio.

No problems while drying. Really strong smell while drying you should use a filter-system for that.

All round great strain to grow , responds well to lolly popping technique , produced around 8/9 good main colas ,, covered in resinous terps with a strong earthy smell … I cannot wait to try this one she’s a beautifull looking plant DRSHOTZUK🍀🍀💚💚

Every fine so far

The grow was a rollercoaster of highs and lows. My Blue Dream plant developed mold in the buds, so I decided to harvest my Banana purple punch earlier to stay on the safe side. The trichomes exhibited a good balance of amber and milky colors, but unfortunately, there was no time for a proper flush period. Banana Purple Punch encountered the most challenges among the strains. It struggled with aphids, nitrogen toxicity, and thrips, which affected its overall health and bud development. This strain seemed particularly sensitive to high nutrient levels, which likely contributed to these issues. Despite these setbacks, I’m hopeful for a decent harvest. Each problem provided valuable lessons on pest management and nutrient balance, which will be beneficial for future grows. Update 09.08. Today, I brought the Banana Purple Punch into my apartment for a trim session. Since I didn’t trim her wet, this took a bit more effort compared to the Blue Dream harvest. The buds are quite airy and fluffy, but they have a fantastic aroma. The vibrant purple color of the buds is stunning, and I can't wait to give them a proper cure and eventually taste them—I’m confident they’ll be delicious. Unfortunately, I had to discard a few buds due to mold spots again. The rich purple hues of the buds make it challenging to distinguish between mold and the natural coloration, but once they're fully dry and cured, the smell should reveal any lingering issues. The dry weight was 24 gramm.

We’re in the midst of the bulking phase now, with a few buds stacking up nicely. Unfortunately, the plant on the left has sparser bud distribution. Compared to other auto genetics, these three plants also show a broad variety in growth structure and phenological traits. Also, overall plant health isn’t entirely satisfying, with high temperatures being the Main cause. The leaves are showing several stress-related issues like mild tip burn, nitrogen deficiency, and some cal-mag problems. But hey—we’re here to grow buds, not leaves! 😄 That said, the fade is to be expected as the plants start to cannibalize themselves for nutrients. The stretch is also in its final phase, so we’re likely 3 to 4 weeks away from harvest. --- Quick rundown on everything else: Watering: 1500ml every third day Fertilizer: According to the BioBizz schedule Light intensity: ~1000 PPFD VPD: ~1.62 kPa Temperature: ~28°C Relative humidity: ~55%

- Luego de 10 días desde el cambio de luz se aplico Big one de manera radicular. - Como esta comenzando el Invierno, estoy teniendo un poco de problemas con la temperatura, he llegado a mínimas de 16°C - Estoy tratando de utilizar PK booster de BAC en vez de Top MAX de biobizz - Realice una defoliación casi al terminar la semana cosa que le llegara luz a la mayoría de los ápices de la plantita Van creciendo sanitas, bueno me excedí un poquito de fertilizantes y algunas puntas estuvieron quemándose pero.... espero no sea nada grave

🌱Day 64.💚 🌱Day 66.💚 🌱Day 68.💚 🌱Day 70. Hot reason why in UK most grow tent heat up, my grow tent temperature reach already 36 degrees. O lalaaa…I will get experience…😆💚

My good friend convinced me that trimming and training are paramount, so I've started with slowly defoliating the Creme de la Chems to try and get to lollipop status. They're just starting to flower, so I figured I could get away with a more aggressive approach. Because I failed to train these girls early, I'm stuck dealing with a little rain forest. What I've tried to do is trace each flower topped stalk up from the base, and trim away from the bottom up. 1/3 of the way up per day. I've now got a thick canopy, and I've been trying to just use leaf tucking and manual manipulation every few hours in order to keep the different height flowering sites in direct light. These ladies have really been thriving, and it's been such a joy to watch them grow! I like having two plants in one net pot letting them grow wild, but I think in my next grow I'll keep it to one per pot and train better from the start. As for the Super Orange Haze ... not as good. I attempted to pull the main branch over to train her to some empty space, but I was too aggressive and ended up popping her head off :(. First grow, first disaster. I took the head and stripped her/coated in clonex and pushed her into some potting soil just to see what would happen. There hasn't been enough foliage to really make me want to do any trimming, I've just tried to tie the stalks off to train them apart. I'm really sad about my mistake decapitation, but she seems to be doing well still. She's probably week 2 of flower based on others' journals. I changed the water midway through the week (which is when the videos were taken). I drained most of the water out, but roots prevented me from getting the last few gallons. When I refilled the res with RO, I measured the PPM at around 200. I have to assume that remaining nutrient was completely unbalanced leftovers, so feeding will have to just have to be experimental. My approach has been to give around 1:1 Gro vs Bloom and Micro every 2-3 days when I refill with RO. I want to build my PPM up to 1000, but slowly so that I can detect if I hit a ceiling first. It's hard to measure how much food is in the water based on PPM. CalMag is what drives it mostly, so I've been using CalMag as a sort of measuring stick. I keep the CalMag pegged to the Bloom food, but I know it's only good for initial dosing. I can't assume the plants are eating CalMag in the same proportion as anything else :(. If anyone has a line on cheap lab testing ... hit me up. I'd love to be able to test a few hundred samples at a time for NPK and trace so that I can tell (even if post facto) what was going on.

All in all, love to thank everyone that made this contest possible, and to all sponsors, and thanks dogdoctor for including me 👌😄 its been a blast, cant wait to smoke this honey and also press some honey 🍯 this one is going to be tasty! Big fat buds on this one, jusat kept stacking up but now chop chop! See uou blut the smoke review guys, and good luck! Love to everyone

Finally received a couple of humidifiers to test from the local shop. These shitty low cost humidifiers will not really do, I can only have them on non stop until the water runs out. If I connect them to a sensor that switches them off, it won't go back on because it doesn't have a mechanical switch, I have to press on each time. Still, let's see if this helps my poor dry leafs a little bit

Se sienten mas fuertes los aromas de esta planta. La resina a comenzafo a invadir cada flor y cada hoja apegada a las flores. Ya va quedando menos para llegar al final.
