Punch Cake grow informationÂ
When it comes to cultivation, the Punch Cake is pretty straightforward. It’s best suited to intermediate-level growers who have basic cannabis growing capabilities. The resources are limited, making it a bit challenging for beginners.Â
The hybrid grows well indoors and outdoors. Greenhouse growers can optimize their harvest using a Sea of Green (SOG) setup. Cultivate these seeds in a warm environment, with Mediterranean conditions. Indoors a temperature of 68-80°F is ideal.
The Punch Cake strain requires plenty of light exposure, especially during the vegetative stage. Minimize the risk of pathogens by using fans to enhance ventilation. Regular pruning also reduces the chance of mold and mildew forming in the thicker parts of the plant’s foliage.
These crops don’t need much supplementation, but you can use Homegrown nutrients to boost growth and plant health. These crops flourish with moderate humidity levels and take between 9–10 weeks to flower.Â
