I had a few issues with this plant, and with all things considered, I'm very happy. She suffered some deficiencies and even under fed at times. She was chopped on day 79, and produced 51.1 grams (1.83 Oz) of frosty little Christmas trees. I will update the review once she has cured and after I've smoked her.

The smell when wet trimming the fans off is of sweet berrys, a little bit citrus and musky dank smell is the only way I can describe it. The drying is coming to an end, at the end of day 13 I broke a bud off that weighed a gram and had a smoke test, the flavours are there and it smooth smoke surprisingly but I think a cure will really bring the terps out.

I've started decreasing my CO2 dosage as I have reduced my nitrogen load. I'm going to slowly keep removing any unnecessary vegetation. I have turned off my space heater at night to get colder temperatures. I started feeding extremely heroic doses of calmag (Rooted Leaf 0-0-0 CalMag plus) These buds are extreeeemely dense and covered in trichomes with a really gassy smell. Some pistils are starting to change colour to a deep amber.

RSQ Wedding Cake has just start producing hairs but still not in flower yet. FB Cherry Cola has already started producing some Icy . SS Bruce Banner has an issue going on, I've got mixed reviews on what it could be. Added about 8ml of Athena IPM to the water for that one. Hopefully she snaps back and grows strong

The terpenes are starting to come through. There is a delicious fruity smell pushing through the diesel smell. The leaves are beginning to yellow and I think we are coming to the end. I have some pretty big and sparkly colas coming through. I shut off my red lights on the LEDs to get a good video that shows off that sparkle. Trichomes on the sugar leaves are beginning to turn amber, the rest are almost completely milky. I'm giving it another week before I chop. I do a slow flush at 470ppm with only canna boost, cannazyme, and cal mag. I will be topping off with only phd water this week.

18 Sep 2021 Today starts week 11 of the grow, and week 3 of flowering. I gave the plants what was left of the feeding solution from the previous feeding yesterday, but didn’t do an entry for it 🤷‍♂️. The plants needed to be fed, so I gave them what I had ready. It was about gallon split between the three of them, so just a snack really. Today I’m moving along in the feed chart and upping the level to the Mid-Bloom, step 6 on my feeding chart. As with the previous weeks, I plan to start using only 50% of the nutrient level because all 3 of my Ladies are doing exceptionally well with what I’ve been giving them so far, so I’m going to keep doing it. So far there has been zero nutrient burn, and I’d love to keep it that way! Ok; so not everything is going to be right at 50%, but close enough. I’m going to start feeding them CALiMAGic 2ml, FloraMicro 2ml, FloraGro 2ml, FloraBloom 2.2ml, Floralicious Plus 2ml, and Liquid KoolBloom 1ml. Each plant will be given the above nutrients mixed into a gallon of water. The initial pH for each is as follows: C1 & C2 - 6.3, and C3 - 6.2. I added 1.5ml of pH UP to adjust them up a bit. C1 was adjusted to 6.6, and C2 & C3 were both adjusted to 6.7. The runoff pH still isn’t where I want it to be, but the plants are doing wonderful, so I’ll just keep an eye on it. If everything continues to go well, then nothing need be done. If problems develop, then I’ll address them as they arise. The runoff pH was: C1 - 5.7, C2 - 6.0, and C3 - 5.6. The temp was 82F in the tent at around 2:00pm when I fed them, and humidity was at 69%. I’ve noticed that the humidity in the tent is higher now than it ever has been in previous grows, but still doing great! My plants are looking stellar! I’m extremely happy with where they are now, and with how they’re maturing. I guess I’ll just keep on keeping on. Happy growing everyone!! 20 Sep 2021 Hello everyone! Hopefully you all have been growing some great weed out there on the big blue marble called Earth! It’s feeding time again in The_Good_Twin grow room! Today I gave C1 and C2 what was left of their gallons the other day, but C3 was looking a little parched; so I decided to feed them all all over again. Just a little different. Instead of giving each of them their own gallon; especially since C1 and C2 had already had a bit, I decided to make 2 gallons and split one between those two, and one for C3 by herself. I kept with the same feed levels as the other day, so each gallon received: CALiMAGic 2ml, FloraMicro 2ml, FloraGro 2ml, FloraBloom 2.2ml, Floralicious Plus 2ml, and Liquid KoolBloom 1ml. The initial pH for both gallons was 6.3. I added 1.8ml’s of pH UP to each gallon which adjusted the pH of both gallons to 6.8. The runoff pH differed a little. C1 was 5.8, C2 was 6.1 (from the same solution), and C3 was 5.7. It seems no matter how I adjust the pH going in, it always seems to be much lower in the runoff water. The plants are doing great, so I’m not going to worry until it seems to be a real issue. It may be nothing. The temperature was moderate outside today, and the tent temperature was commensurate with the outside at 77F. The humidity was at 56% today when I fed them, but was about 65% about 2 hours earlier when I checked in on them. Like I said; my plants are doing great so I’m not worried about anything right now. I’m thinking about upping the nutrients to full strength next time to see how they react. If I get some nutrient burn then I’ll lower them back down. If not 🤷‍♂️, I’ll keep feeding them the full strength. We’ll just have to see how it goes. May all of your ladies give you big, fat, sticky buds!! Happy growing everyone! 22 Sep 2021 So today is the day! My lovely ladies are going to start receiving full strength nutrients for the first time in this grow. I’ve been keeping it at half strength till now, but their bud formation looks to be in full swing. I want to give them plenty of help right now, so their buds can get fat and sticky!! Today all three of my ladies took the full gallon of solution, and had a sufficient amount of runoff. Today they received: CALiMAGic 2ml, FloraMicro 3.8ml, FloraGro 3.8ml, FloraBloom 4.2ml, Floralicious Plus 2ml, and Liquid KoolBloom 1ml. The initial pH for all 3 was 6.1. I added 2ml of pH UP to each gallon which adjusted the pH of C1/C3 - 6.6, and C2 - 6.7. Runoff pH for C1 was 5.7, C2 was 5.9, and C3 was 5.6. I’m not really happy with the runoff pH, but I haven’t been this whole time. All three of my plants are doing awesome, so I’m not going to worry about it until I see cause too. Tent temperature was 81F, with humidity at 66%. My plants look amazing! I believe (so far) that they are the best plants I’ve grown yet. Sadly, none of the clippings I took from them for clones made it. So my Blueberry Muffin run will end with two diaries, and 4 plants. Each of my Trio has long, white haired buds forming in clusters around every node on their branches. All three of them are looking strong and healthy. I’m super happy with their progress to date. Hopefully they respond well to the full nutrients and burst with improved growth. Time will tell. Happy growing everyone!

So jetzt habe Ich meine erste Ernte hinter mir. Das Ergebnis hat mich überrascht. Mit so einem kleinen Setup und eigentlich Keine professionelle LED Lampe, Habe ich solches fertig bekommen. Nach dem groben befreien der Blätter habe ich auf der Waage 577 g nass. Ich bin gespannt wie viel es circa trocken sein werden. Ich denke mit 100 g kann ich wohl rechnen. Sobald sie trocken sind werde ich mich noch mal melden.

All in all every strain is doing great! Blueberry is the closes to finishing followed by chemdawg and lastly the Somango I just flipped little over a week ago so still have a little while to go with her! Blueberry has a pungent and fresh berries/citrus aroma going on while the chemdawg has the infamous og odor no doubt og is related to it haha. Thanks for checking it out! XD ..sorry for the delayed update

Decided I didn’t want to wait for the entire canopy to fill so I figured I’d do some lollipopping and one last vegetative feeding before flipping to flower in a few days after they have a couple days to stabilize after all the trimming I did today. In retrospect, looking at the before and after I may have gotten a little too heavy handed with the lollipopping and defoliation but you live and learn. The advice I got here like 3 weeks ago to back off the watering and let the soil dry out completely for like a week really helped the plant bounce back from the overwatering I was doing. Another lesson learned. Thanks again for all the experienced advice! The new growth leaves show none of the same issues the old ones were. I’m looking forward to flipping to flower and I love the fact that this is such a fast flowering strand!

She is growing nice, the buds are getting fat, apparently i was expecting gorilla cookies to be the winner at the size of the buds until now, apparently i was wrong, amnezia has bigger buds than gorilla at this stage :) we will see who is going to be the winner... who you think is going to win?

Week 02 Introduction This week has been a bit of a struggle. Had my first experience dealing with slime and brown algae. But I think adding enzymes and increasing the beneficial bacteria helped to fix the issue. Also experienced nutrient burn for the first time. My nutrient solution strength got as high as 671 PPMs. So backed it down to about 430 PPMs during the end-of-week reservoir change. Also cut Hydroguard (expired?), CaliMagic, and Superthrive from this grow. Now she's still stunted, but is starting to recover. Hopefully... [START OF WEEK 02] Day 01 - Monday - 08/10/20 - Total Days: 008 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Still looks a bit yellow. But getting larger! --- Solution strength was at 248 PPMs. --- Just topped off with a bit of distilled water --- PH went up to 6.1 so PH'd down to 5.8 --- Ran the top feed for a bit to wet the hydroton. - [2130]: She's looking even more yellow now. --- Even the new leaves are really yellow. --- Decided to add more base nutes. --- Added 4ml of Sensi A --- Added 4ml of Sensi B --- Now at about --- Solution Strength went up to 304 PPM. --- PH was at 6, --- Also raised the water level a bit more. --- I really hope it's a nutrient deficiency and not an over-watering issue. --- Please live! Day 02 - Tuesday - 08/11/20 - Total Days: 009 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looking less droopy. But still yellow. --- Decided to do a reservoir change. --- 4.5gal of distilled water --- 8ml of Sensi Grow A --- 8ml of Sensi Grow B --- 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- 4ml of B-52 --- 4ml of CaliMagic --- 4ml of Hydroguard --- 4 drops of Superthrive --- PH'd down to 5.8 --- Solution strength: 302 PPM --- Since I didn't want to risk over-watering the rockwool, I did not to do a top feed, may do one tonight after the sleep cycle (lights are still set to go off at 10am and back on at 4pm). --- As I was doing a reservoir change, I noticed that the tubes and bucket were a bit slimy. Didn't really stink or anything. Is this normal? Maybe due to the Hydroguard and Voodoo Juice? --- I hope she gets better soon! - [2215]: Getting larger! But still yellow. --- Also can see a root growing through the net pot! Tiny little thing but it's there! Will have to start dropping water once more appear. --- After looking over a few DWC diaries using AN nutes, seems like my solution strength is still too low. Most around this stage average around 500 PPMs with about 4ml per gallon. --- Top fed for a minute to wet the top of the hydroton. --- Solution strength went down to 263 PPM. --- Added 8ml more of Sensi A --- Added 8ml more of Sensi B --- Now base nutes are at 16ml for 4.5 gal of water. --- PPMs went up to 411. --- Still lower than 500 PPMs, but that's okay. --- PH was at 6. Not sure if I should adjust PH using AN nutes. So going to not ajdust unless PH goes above 6.1. Day 03 - Wednesday - 08/12/20 - Total Days: 010 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looks like more root growth! --- She still looks yellow. But leaves are perky. --- PH was at 6.2 so lowered down to 5.8. --- Solution strength was at 394 PPMs --- Since roots are still growing, I decide to lower the water level a bit. Now water level is a bit below the net pot. - [2200]: Root is getting longer! --- Slime is returning. Not sure why. --- Solution strength: 357 PPMs --- PH: 6.1 --- Decided to add an enzyme along with more beneficial bacteria to hopefully cure the slime. --- Added 16ml of Sensizym --- Added 5ml of Hydroguard --- Added 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- New solution strength: 430 PPMs --- New PH: 6.1 --- Top fed for a minute. --- This slimy residue is really freaking me out! I hope the added enzymes will help eliminate the slime. --- Going to do a full reservoir sterilization/nutrient change over the weekend. Please survive until then girl! Day 04 - Thursday - 08/13/20 - Total Days: 011 ----------------------------------- - [0930]: I think the enzymes worked! There is little to no slime now! --- Although I think the root was also dissolved in the process. It's now just a little stub sticking just below the net pot. The enzyme is also suppose to dissolved dead roots too but guess that root was too weak? Not sure what happened there. But I think the slime is cured! --- Solution strength went down to 395 PPMs. Decided to add more base nutrients. --- Added 8ml of Sensi A --- Added 8ml of Sensi B --- Added 4ml of B-52 --- Solution strength went up to 598 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.1 --- As long as the PH is between 5.5 and 6.3, I'm not going to use PH Up or Down. But still will monitor PH levels. - [1715]: Checked up on her after her nap and shes looking alive but stunted. But no slime! --- Decided to add some sugars to help maintain the enzymes and beneficial bacteria. --- Solution strength was at 587 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.2 --- Added 8ml of Bud Candy --- Solution strength went up to 671 PPMs. --- PH also went up to 6.3 --- Lowered water level a bit to hopefully promote more root growth. --- Top fed for a minute. --- She is getting bigger, but still looks yellow. Day 05 - Friday - 08/14/20 - Total Days: 012 ----------------------------------- - [0915]: Leaves look a little burnt on the tips. Still no slime. --- Going to back off on the PPMs to hopefully fix the nutrient toxicity. --- Solution strength was at 632 PPMs --- PH was at 6.3 --- Added/Removed water until PPMs were at 536. --- PH was still at 6.3 --- Raised water up a bit, then top fed for a minute. - [2200]: Looking better. Still yellow though. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 6.5 --- Added PH down. --- New solution strength: 518 PPMs --- New PH: 5.2 --- PH was kind of high. So decided to PH down. Had to use quite a bit to bring it down. But eventually got it to drop down to 5.3. A little low, but so far, the PH has always gone up so wanted to start it really low. --- Ran the top feed for a minute to re-saturate the top of the hydroton. Day 06 - Saturday - 08/15/20 - Total Days: 013 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: She looks stunted. leaves are still yellow. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 5.6 --- Top fed for a minute. --- Not sure what to do at this point. Going to do another reservoir change soon. Hoping she lives until then. - [2145]: Looking pretty much the same. --- A bit of slime has returned. Since I've been diluting the nutrient solution, the enzyme ratio has dropped. So I guess this is expected. --- Also noticed that slime build up was on the air-stones. Never really checked the stones so not sure how long that has been there. Looks brown too, which can't be good. --- Going to do an H202 sterilization of the system (minus the net pot) tomorrow so did not add anything. --- Lowered the water level to below the net pot. --- Then top fed for a minute. Day 07 - Sunday - 08/16/20 - Total Days: 014 ----------------------------------- - [0900]: STERILIZATION DAY! --- Decided to skip today's night cycle for a deep clean. --- I'm hoping that skipping a night cycle won't be too stressful. --- Temporarily moved her to a new bucket. --- Used about a half of gallon of straight distilled water to flush out the net pot. --- Drained the system and wiped up all the brown sludge. Also removed the air stones and cleaned up all the goo. --- Filled the system with 2 gallons of distilled water and at least 30ml of food grade hydrogen peroxide (35% strength). --- Yea its a lot, but since I'm not going to sterilize the system overnight, I went with a really high doseage. Basically I kept adding until I started to see little bubbles start to form. --- Then I ran the water pump. - [0915]: Boiled the air stones in tap water for about 10 min. Then reconnected them to the airlines. --- I let the air stones and hose soak in the sterilization solution for about 5 minutes so the peroxide can absorb into the stones. Then ran the air stone to help mix and agitate the solution. --- Occasionally, I'd repeat the process of turning the air pump off for a few minutes to let the stones soak. - [1000]: Covered the top two row of holes of the net pot with some aluminum tape. Hopefully this solves the light leaking in through the hydroton. - [1200]: Used an old toothbrush and scrubbed the pump clean. Then drained the system. --- Refilled with more distilled water and peroxide. Again added a lot. --- Ran system again to sterilize even more. - [1530]: Drained the system and refilled with distilled water to rinse. --- Ran the system for a few minutes, then drained and rinsed again. --- Did this a few more times over about an hour. - [1630]: Added 4 gallons of fresh distilled water. --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow A --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow B --- Added 12ml of B-52 --- Added 16ml of Voodoo Juice --- Added 16ml Sensizym --- Solution strength was at 430 PPMs --- PH was at 5.6 --- I was going to add Hydroguard, but I think the bottle is expired. Since 2017 or 2018!? I think Hydroguard is good for up to 2 years from the date on the bottle or 6 months after opening. So not going to use from now on. I wonder if this could have contributed to the slime build up. --- Also removed the CaliMagic and Superthrive too. Going to only use AN products to eliminate the chance of incompatible nutrients. --- Placed her back in the bucket and top fed for a minute. --- Here's hoping for the best. Going to let it ride until morning! Please feel better! [END OF WEEK 02]

On day 1 the reservoirs PH is 6.3. The plants are starting to bulk up now. On day 2 I changed out the reservoir and adjusted the PH to 6.1. On day 3 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 6.3 to 6.1. On day 4 the reservoir is holding at 6.1. My right plant experienced another run away so I reduced flow rate by one carrot can't quite get it right this run... The colas are really starting to fatten up 😀 On day 5 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 5.8 to 6.1. On day 6 I adjusted the PH of the reservoir from 6.4 to 6.2. On day 7 I adjusted the PH of the reservoir from 5.9 to 6.2.

This strain has a yield of extra large, compact colas that are heavy in weight and covered in extra adhesive trichomes that stick to your fingers. Cherry Punch's exterior is dark green and exhibits small amounts of midnight purple leaves Cherry Punch's exterior is dark green and exhibits small amounts of midnight purple leaves. Its aroma is fruity but skunk-like, and has a soft, sweet berry taste that resembles its parent Purple Punch

It took 80 days from seed to harvest and a further 9 days to dry as i couldn't keep the temp low enough but that was my problem and 352g of dry curable bud back is amazing for an autoflower in my opinion, especially grown in coco

The the buds were small so it made trimming a nightmare! But it’s done and the end product is worth all the time. I have loads of trim and small popcorn buds that will be dry Ice sifted and pressed into a hash brick. Will update the diary when I have some bcp hash Weighed up the trim at 588 grams, used my trim bins with dry ice to sift the trim and pressed it into blocks using a rosin pre press, I’ll now jar this and put it to one side. My first time doing this, definitely worth the effort!
