Big PUNch

Aroma: High, fruit cocktail, red Kool-Aid, fruit syrup; after cure fruit cocktail cup, fruit punch, sweet syrup Notes: Novice-friendly, not nutrient sensitive, possible extra calcium, explosive veg growth, beautiful late-flower color, trim ease 5/5, trichomes 5/5, grow again 5/5 Big Punch is exactly what the name promises, a loud fruit-cocktail brawler that comes on high-strength in the tent with red Kool-Aid, fruit syrup, and that Dole fruit cup sweetness filling the air. In veg she steals the show fast with bright green growth and explosive vigor, then settles into a bushy, even canopy that’s easy to shape with simple leaf tucking and a little branch tie-down. She didn’t show nutrient sensitivity in this run, though a touch of extra calcium may help keep her cruising, and late flower brings a beautiful color expression as she finishes. Yield was an estimated 6 oz from a living soil bed run, and the cure and smoke notes are still TBD, but everything about her growth and aroma reads like a sticky fruit punch jar waiting to happen.
