HashGirl Grows Purple Ghost Candy In The Seedsman Comparative Grow 2024

UPDATE - PURPLE GHOST CANDY (Portia)

Good afternoon/evening. It's been almost 3 weeks since my last update, which is partly due to my impaired vision and partly because I've been a bit of a funk since my friend died mid-June and haven't felt like doing anything much other than reading and soaking up the rays. Speaking of soaking up the rays, Portia doesn't look very good in today's photo as we've been having record highs of 36C the last couple of days and it's supposed to continue for the rest of the week. I gave her a lot of water about an hour ago so that should help. Anyhow, here is her updated info along with some new photos. She still hasn't started flowering but hopefully soon. She's grown A LOT since my last update so it will be interesting to see how much she grows after flower starts.

My cataract consultation appointment has been scheduled for September 18. Hopefully, I'll be more regular here by the end of the year.

I hope everyone here is doing well.
 
Hey there wondering how your PGC is coming along?
 
I'm on here now in order to vote in the August contests. Sorry I haven't updated the journal lately. Life has been busy. I promise I'll post one soon. I'm working on it sporadically.

Thanks to everyone for their best wishes.

:green_heart: :ciao: I'm waiting for that consultation too HashGirl. Can't come too soon! Have a nice blurry day :cheesygrinsmiley:

Plants are looking great! I'm almost sure. :laugh:

Hey HG! Sorry to hear about your troubles.
That is a beauty of a plant despite the heat issues. I'm sure she'll bounce back as things cool down.
Take care

Hey Stranger. Where did you disappear to? I was going to post a Happy Birthday message on your thread (in June?) but it said you'd been gone for about a year so I didn't. I hope it was a good one. :battingeyelashes:
 
I guess I can post a couple ofs photo from Portia recently even if I can't do an update right now. I already can't see and I haven't finished voting yet. Yikes!

Anyhow, Portia is now 73 inches tall. Good thing I topped her. ;)

Sadly it wasn't the best year but I'm back now and will hopefully be starting a journal again very soon. Living the PGC. Like you said, it was a good thing that she was topped :thumb:

That's too bad. I'd say tag me in your new journal but I'm not really following any right now as I'm waiting for cataract surgery. Electronics are the worst for my eyes. 😢

Hi HG - I've been using screen glasses or whatever they're called for about 6 month now and my eyes definitely feel less stressed; they block out some of the blue even tho I reduced the Gamma on my monitor
GF got them for me so no idea where they came from, but they are noticeably effective
Just a thought that I hope is useful to know
:Namaste:
 
*** Purple Ghost Candy - UPDATE ***

Good afternoon.

Sorry it's been so long since my last update. On the cataract side of things, my eyes have been deemed to not be bad enough for cataract surgery yet so that's on hold for now. So, even though the computer screen still bothers my eyes, I'm going to try to be more active here on 420 Magazine.

Portia is now 6 feet tall. I had planned on updating you on her mid-September but we got a lot of rain and she needed to be staked so until that happened, I didn't want to update her here. Her photo on Day 33 of Flower shows her sadness from the rain.

Portia's feed has been switched to MegaCrop from Gaia Green as I didn't think she looked well enough. However, I'm almost out of MegaCrop so I will be switching her feed again to the General Hydroponics food as that's what I'm using indoors.

I elected to not buy anymore MegaCrop as I'm not growing in ProMix anymore. Anyhow, here is her updated info along with her recent pictures:

Thanks, guys. Did you notice that the pistils are looking kind of purple? I doubt they'll match this photo but I'm still hoping:

Also, I don't want to get new glasses. These ones cost $1200 and they're not even 2 years old yet. I will just try to visit the site more often. I'm also very busy these days so that's another reason I haven't been posting much yet.
 
Wow- that storm really slapped her around out there!
Good job getting her pointed back in the right direction..👍

I see some purple on the sugar leaves too, so she's working on it...
