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

Videos were taken on day 37 of flower. This one has a heavy strawberry aroma and some strange lookin buds. Looks like it will fill in pretty good. It's on the far right of the tent in the videos next to the purple leafed plant.

Welcome to my Strawberry Cola Auto by Exotic Seeds Both SCA are nearly on the same track. I uprooted 1 and decided to put them both into 1 8L pot. As the plants grow i'll LST them 1 to 1 corner and 1 at the other end. Before they progress too much into their veg, the 8L of soil in an 18L pot. Without disturbing the soil as much as possible. I have something i put down the sides of the pot and upturn them bringing out the whole base of the substrate sides without the sub falling away from the sides, then they'll be transferred directly into an 18L pot. Lifting the sides up, and hopefully this will hinder any excess stress that you don't want to put on any auto as it'll most likely stunt them and hinder their possibility of giving a substantial harvest. Both seeds are on days 5-7. The 7 day old one was uprotted, so I expect a day or 2 stun, so they should be on or near the same growth rate. So far, I really like the way these autos are growing. I had fastbuds straw cola and tbh, I'm not a big fan of this flavour so, hopefully this strain will have something that charges my perspective. Decided to give them a dose of artios touch for any stress. Thanks to my sponsors Mars-Hydro & Spider-Farmer for allowing me to use their products. This is my 4th run with the FC 3000 and my 2nd crop with my SE5000. I'll be doing 9-11 mothers and 6-7 autos X 2 so 12-14 autos in 2 stages as the females go through a 4-5 month grow.

Hello. I've finished, cured and put away the Sleepy Joe. It didn't have the strength I was hoping for but it is still nice to smoke. It gets you couch locked and sleepy so before bed stuff. Plant #1 Wet Plant - 875g Dry Buds - 99g Plant #2 Wet plant - 1085g Dry Buds - 114g Plant #3 Wet Plant - 871g Dry Buds - 92g Plant #4 Wet Plant - 807g Dry Buds - 116g Plant #5 Wet plant - 967g Dry Buds - 99g Plant #3 was the strongest and I'm going to reveg it. Thanks for tuning in. Chuck.

Haven't uploaded week 8 so here's a few words about then. I couldn't do much else since I was waiting for some supplies before transplanting them. Overall, it was interesting to learn more about watering. I was definitely underwatering them and I think that contributed for them looking "sad" on week 7. After increasing the amount of water, they started looking better and growing more too. I also sprayed them with bauv. for IPM. About week 9: Supplies arrived so I mixed some Bokashi in the soil mix, filled some 7L vases (made some extra holes on sides, lesson learned from the first weeks hahaha) and transplanted the plants. After that, I watered them some Shrimp FPE to increase microbial life, phosphorus and chitin content in the soil. 2 days later and two of them are looking really happy ( plant 1 and 3)

She started flowering this week yay! Slowly upping the nutrients, have read so much about giving half strength of Fox Farms so I don’t want to over do it. Have a few leaves that have a few spots of discoloration, and I noticed the stems turning a bit purple but overall still really healthy! Overall going well! Going to keep upping the nutrients.

I really failed at the beginning of this grow with not putting up any kind of netting or trellis. I’ve had to put bamboo in the pots and and wrap string around that way the branches can rest on it. I’ve noticed the buds are getting fatter.

Mint Runtz automatic is doing good. She is growing fast. She should be going into flowering this next week I don't see any pistils yet. Hopefully a good stretch is to come. I want to get some use out of the under canopy Saturn 240 light. Everything is looking good. She is likely due for a solution change soon to a more blooming mix.

They are swelling nicely and rock hard already, could imagine in 4 more weeks the density 👀 ... the terpene I find is like bubblegum citrus pine and slight gassy.

Got 2301 into her final home in a 3 gallon pot, I used grow dots at 1 table per gallon of medium and made the bottom 3rd of the soil a little hot with fresh ocean Forrest soil, and purple cow non manure compost.. and moved her to my new ac infinity 3x3 tent!

We've made it to week 3! (10/12/20) I'm very happy with how the girls are going, they have definitely put in a HUGE amount of work over the past 7 days. Plants 3 & 8 are very similar(extremely fat leaves & extra bushy) Plants 1 & 5 are similar (smaller phenos reacting to nutes slightly differently) & Plants 2, 4, 6 & 7 seem to be a cross between the previously mentioned phenos(not too small and not too big/bushy & reacting to nutes fine) Feel free to compare Week 1, 2 & 3 to see the differences. Nutes are staying the same this week, although I will be spacing feedings out a little bit further(18 hours-ish), as well as feeding straight PH'd water once a fortnight. I am contemplating hooking my simple drip-to-waste irrigation system up, although the girls are pretty close to the medium still and the halos sit 5-10cm above the medium, meaning fan leaves would be drooping onto the wet halos, so I'll give it another week and see how they're doing :) Update 11/12/20 - day 22 The girls have beefed up quite a bit over the last 24 hours, I'm really looking forward to seeing a stretch soon :) No feeding today & will water plain ph'd water tomorrow. Update 12/12/20 - day 23 Gave the girls straight ph'd water today with little run off. Veg growth is really starting to boom now, looking forward to seeing where this grow goes! I'm gladly accepting any tips or tricks, as I'm still only a beginner to indoors. Update 13/12/20 - day 24 Girls are looking great today, not much to report. They didn't get a feed or watering today as the medium was still wet after a pure watering yesterday. Update 14/12/20 - day 25 There's been a big increase in growth over the past 24 hours. All the girls besides the 2 smaller phenos look 100% happy, the smaller ones have looked a little weird since day 1(Weird as in colour of the fan leaves look deficient of something, but I'm not sure what. The girls will be getting a full feeding today. There's still no signs of sex but they are feminised seeds. Update 15/12/20 - day 26 Girls are looking happy today. Temps are back to normal after a heat wave in my city(its only going to get hotter from here on out). No feeding/watering today, pots are heavy/wet enough. Started using iphone for photos now, my only lens for my DSLR is useless for most grow related photos. I will upgrade my lens before next grow. I received my new silenced fan today! I couldnt be any happier :) It is a silenced Sigilventus SE-A150J, which I have set-up with a brand new Can-lite carbon filter. I went from a rocket loud eBay fan to a completely silent inline EC fan :D I hope the girls like the silence! Update 16/12/20 - day 27 The girls are continuing to boom! and I'm over the moon about it :D I gave them a full feeding today. I have seen white pistils coming out of calyx's on most of the girls, so i'm hoping they start to flower soon. I'm having weird issues with my humidity, it seems to be fine at 40-50% for 70% of the day, but the remaing 30% of the day it goes up to 60-65%. Temps stay the same in the 5x5 tent, I have ducted air-con in the house which is on most of the day. Thanks for viewing! :)

Hab sie jetzt umgetopft und ein paar Tage vorher schon die zwei unteren Triebe entfernt. Jetzt bleiben mir nur noch etwa 30 cm bis zur Lampe, also muss ich bald wieder anfangen, sie runterzubinden. Nächste Woche wird dann auch nochmal getoppt. Erstmal lass ich sie aber in Ruhe, damit sie sich an den neuen Topf gewöhnen kann. Und natürlich hab ich letzte Nacht das Fenster offen gelassen… jetzt ist sie ein bisschen angepisst. 😅 Aber ich denke, sie fängt sich schon wieder.

DISCLAIMER START EC Value on weekly page is the actual value, my EC meter was not calibrated and gave extremely false values, that's why it went so bad, corrected it on the weekly page when I noticed it, the EC value in the comment is wrong, the rest is correct. DISCLAIMER END Plant grew a little this week, is still way to small and also full on in bloom. Drastically increased distance to the light from 30cm to almost 60cm, I always used to do that in previous grows but for some reason thought I had to do 30cm this time !? could also be a reason it didn't grew as usually. The mutation I found on leaf grew bigger. Will move the plant some when next week in to a smaller plant since it will not grow much bigger anymore. Added a new light to the tent, the Kingbrite P55 320W, when the plant is moved it will be back under the Mars Hydro SP3000. Switched to 24h light on the last day. Values are average of the day.

This clone was randomly given to me and I had no setup! I immediately got her out of the growers pit into a 3L. This is going to be a simple Living Soil and Water only grow! Her roots outgrew the 3L and she began to crash as you’ll see from the pictures. This was easily remedied by increasing to a 5L.

KEVS_BEST – Woche 8 Blütephase (Run 3) / Week 8 Flowering Phase (Run 3) Mit dem Start der achten Blütewoche beginnt der finale Reifeprozess: Die Sherbzooka-Pflanzen zeigen nun ein deutliches Anzeichen für beginnende Seneszenz. Die Zuckerblätter beginnen sich gelblich zu verfärben, Trichome sind überwiegend milchig, erste bernsteinfarbene Köpfe erscheinen – der perfekte Moment, um gezielt Fade einzuleiten. Die Buds haben nochmals deutlich an Volumen zugelegt, sind kompakt, klebrig und mit einer dichten Harzschicht überzogen. Der Duft ist intensiv fruchtig-süß mit säuerlichen Untertönen – ein unverkennbares Sherbzooka-Terpenprofil. Diese Woche wird die Düngung langsam reduziert: Zu Beginn der Woche wird eine Mischung aus 50 % Core und 50 % Fade gegeben, gegen Ende steht dann nur noch Fade im Fokus, bevor in der finalen Woche komplett auf Wasser mit Cleanse & Balance umgestellt wird. Setup: Die Umstellung verlief bisher reibungslos – EC, pH und VPD sind konstant, kein Stress sichtbar. Die Pflanzen wirken energiegeladen und reifungsbereit. 🌱 Status: Beginn der Endreife. 🔥 Potenzial: Sehr hoch – intensive Harzproduktion, ausgewogene Struktur. Hinweis: Die Wochenprotokolle von Grow 1 und 2 folgen zeitnah rückwirkend – aufgrund von Zeitmangel wurden sie bisher noch nicht nachgetragen. ENGLISH KEVS_BEST – Week 8 Flowering Phase (Run 3) Week 8 marks the beginning of the final ripening phase. Sherbzooka is showing clear signs of senescence: sugar leaves begin to fade, most trichomes have turned cloudy with a few amber heads appearing – the timing for the Fade regimen is just right. Buds have swollen further, covered in a thick layer of sticky resin. The aroma profile is rich, fruity-sweet with sour undertones – a signature Sherbzooka experience. This week starts with 50% Core / 50% Fade and will shift to full Fade by the end of the week, followed by pure water + Cleanse and Balance during the final flush phase. Setup: Environmental conditions remain stable, plants show no signs of stress. Maturity and resin production are peaking. 🌱 Status: Entering final ripening. 🔥 Potential: Excellent – high resin content and strong structure. Note: Due to time constraints, the weekly logs for Grow 1 and Grow 2 will be completed retroactively.
