. The plants are looking good though and over all seem very health. They are drinking water at a good rate, every two to three days they are taking about a gallon. The granddaddy purple is probably the tallest plant I've ever grown coming in at just under three feet tall now. I hope its done stretching because its basically touching the light. I have some room to raise my lights, and thankfully I'm working with two individual lights in the tent so I can adjust the height for just that plant. I've done little to no training on these plants outside of an initial LST on the GDP, I'm going to see what they do with just some natural shape. Both GDP and Purple punch have a bunch of bud sites so I'm excited to see the yields I get out of them. On to some pictures!
I'd keep her going, especially this far in.
ok, thanks. I'll keep it going. I have two more seeds of this strain to try again, I'm hoping its just a bad phenotype, I'd be sad if all three of my GDP seeds ended up like this, but theres only one way to find out.
Put calmag in your plain water first then add nutrients in order, on feed days.
I thinks there’s some wisdom and experience talking here. Reason I say this is that I’ve been using megacrop on my plants and not watering to runoff, especially the in ground one. Well we got a good rain and I think it washed nutes down and I’m getting some burn. When I was watering before I never added as much as the rain provided. I thinks there’s a lot to be said about an even saturation of fertilizer I’m learning.Put calmag in your plain water first then add nutrients in order, on feed days.
Then feed to runoff.
Water days just plain water to run off. No calmag on water days.
Always to runoff though.
Helps prevent a buildup around the root zone.
And feed roots at the bottom of the pot.
Take care Amigo

I wonder if anthocyanins can be vaped? And are maybe destroyed by smoking?
Beautiful girls!Purples leaves to me mean almost nothing. From green - yellow- red - orange - purple all means nothing about quality. Well yellow isn’t the best but the others just happen. A purple bud on the other hand….. I’m not sure. I have had some purple growing but didn’t stand out more than any other. I have one now that I thought was a clone and the bud was purple from day one. While the mother is still as green as can be.
Plant 1
This is the very start of flower and purple
Plant 1
This is today
Plant 2
Before
Plant 2
like two days ago.
Plant 3
This is the plant I think is the mother to the purple bud.
Leaves don’t mean much aside from weather or not the plant is healthy and has the nutes it needs. Buds on the other hand is a different story and I don’t know the answer.
Awesome, thanks for the reply Bill! That was another question I had. I always water until runoff but I thought that meant I was watering TOO much at a time. I'll keep doing what I'm doing then and only add calMag on feed days.Put calmag in your plain water first then add nutrients in order, on feed days.

This is the question I'm trying to answer with this grow. Outside of growing it myself I have no idea if any of the purple buds I've smoked in the past were genetic or temperature manipulation so I hope to be able to get a little bit clearer of an answer on the topic with this grow.
