Seedsman Seeds Purple Punch LE

Well it's been fun watching them go through veg, and now they're going into flower and getting ready to really strut their stuff! 😍 With five weeks of initial growth behind them now, the Seedsman LE Purple Punch Auto's continue doing great, sprouting new growth everyday. They're both exceptional specimens of the strain. It's super exciting now to see them develop through flower. Thank you for following along this journey with me, growing these beautiful cultivars is always better with someone to share the experience with....come along and enjoy! 😎🙏 ~Grown 100% organic in a 10g fabric pot with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium amended with 2tbs/g Down To Earth 4-4-4 / 2 cups/g Earthworm Castings / 1tbs/g Dr. Earth Flower Girl 2-8-4 and 1tbs/g Dr. Earth Bat Guano. ~24hr light cycle during germination / 19/5 light cycle for Veg & Flower ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed, top dressed every 3-4 weeks and weekly Compost Tea's. 3/29- These are some BUSHY girls! Tomorrow I'm going to go in an do some defoliation to open them up...they are just too clogged up with growth! They are both extremely healthy, vigorous and I have no doubt that they can handle the stress. In less than a week you won't be able to tell I did anything...just wait and see! Daily watering continues with 0.75g straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 degrees 200ppm 0.4 EC given to them first thing in the morning after the light comes on. Foliar feeding before lights out continues 3 nights a week now. 3/31- Watered both girls this morning with 0.75g straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 degrees 200ppm 0.4 EC I went ahead and also did a major defoliation on the girl's today to get rid of the vegetation that was choking out the deeper/inner sections of the plants. After removing a ton of leaves from both, the light now penetrates completely through their canopy's down to their medium....perfect! 😎👍 The HLG 650R is now pulling 450w at the wall and remains 38" above canopy. Temperatures, RH and VPD all are gtg and on point with 'daytime' temps at a constant 76 degrees @ 50% RH, dropping to 65 degrees during the dark period. 4/2- Both LE Purple Punch girls have fully bounced back from their defoliation 3 days ago and you really can't tell I did anything (I'm so leery about stripping autoflowers too much and this always happens to me 😜) I'm letting the plants tell me what they need now. I'm closely monitoring them, watering when they show signs of needing it (leaves JUST starting to droop) and nutrients (when their color Just starts to be not as vibrant). Right now they're both doing phenomenally! When I water them it is with 0.75g straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 degrees 200ppm 0.4 EC and I'm watering through the top, taking time to allow the medium to slowly absorb it to avoid runoff. This weekend I will top dress each with 2 cups of Wiggle Worm Castings and then water it in with 0.75g straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 degrees 200ppm 0.4 EC. I'll run an air pump with air stones in it to oxygenate the water which REALLY helps keep the environment in the medium aerobic which both the roots and microbes LOVE! When I water in the castings I'll add 2 tbsp. per gallon of Grandma's Unsulfured Molasses to the water which will supercharge the microbes! 4/4- I top dressed both Seedsman LE Purple Punch Auto's with 2 cups of Wiggle Worm castings and watered it in with 0.50g straight de-chlorinated water to which I added 1/4 tsp/g of Fox Farms Beastie Bloomz, then ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 degrees 400ppm 0.8 EC This morning the girls looked absolutely VIBRANT and are popping flowers out everywhere! They must have really enjoyed the PK boost from yesterday huh?! Both girls mediums were still fairly moist so I held off with the AM watering and will take a look at them this afternoon and see what they tell me! Their foliage color is perfect, without signs of any deficiencies or disease, Well it's really been a great week, the girl's are both healthy and doing fantastic, stacking flower! Next week promises to be just as, if not more, exciting so stay tuned for all the action! 😍 ~Thank you so much for following along so far! I hope you'll continue to follow my journey as things will be getting more exciting as the next weeks approach with the girls into flower now... Grow Strong! 😎🙏~
