!!!!!***** -- THIS HARVEST IS STILL CURRING -- *****!!!!! -------------------------------------------------------------- 4 seeds germinated directly to the soil : 100% success rate, 100% females. 1 seed had a mutation, that made the plant grow 50% of weird branches and leaves. At every node, one branch will be weak and twirl, and grow malformed leaves. I managed to get good results with her, by keeping only the good branches. On the end, this plant was also slower to finish. 2 / 3 weeks. This genetic is described as "turning purple" late flowering. I've lowered the night temp (-1 / -2°C) on the end of flowering, for 2 of the 4 plants, and thoses ones turned purple. Seems to be verry hungry during the strech. TERPS : (will be edited after curring) I've been describing this strain, from mid-flowering, with a "fresh applejuice & sweet smell". Verry intense smell, that made me drool during the last photoshoot :) It smell FRUITY TASTY !!! And not the lemon way! For now, after curring for 2 weeks, the taste is still difficult to describe. Not what I expected. At first, I taste caramel, and then a kind of pink lemonade taste, with the sour and sweet aspect, but without "lemon" taste.

Reviews. Nutrient
I've always been satisfied with Biobizz. Grow after grow, I keep improving my results. So Biobizz been perfect for my beginner grows, and still 100% satisfy me after 2 years of growing :)
Add sweetness to the buds, as expected.
Reviews. Lamp
This light been my best new partner for this new grow session! It replaced my previous light (Mars Hydro TSW2000) and came with some great improvements : - Better (larger) light spread in the tent - More power efficient: consume less, with no side-down! - Produce less heat (another sign it is more power efficient!) The fact Ive got a better light spread in the tent, consumed less electricity, and managed temps way easier than before, make me verry happy with this new light, and I will not change it until it die ;) Was my first grow with that lamp. Buds and leaves got fully covered with trichomes. I got no light burn, but I had some light stress during the first weeks. If you go 18h schedule, I advice checking your plants at the end of the day. You may benefit from lowering lamp output a bit (85%).
Reviews. Tent
Nothing to report. Basic tent, with no pain, no mess. The zip still work perfectly, after more than a year with almost daily opening ^^

Hey everyone :) Every story need it's end.... This grow been started in August. It's been 4 months now... Lot of expectations, lot of hope.... Some fun with "The Ugly".... This diary is now almost over... 2021 too. So... EVERYONE (even you, who read me!), Happy new year, Happy new harvests, Happy new smokes 💜 FROM HARVEST, TO DRYING ROOM ---------------------------------------- 5 days after my last update, I decided to harvest the plants. They been flushed for something like 10 days, with 2 watering. The second watering was like 30 hours before harvest. They started to smell verry strong, and after some checks at the trichomes, it appear I had a decent amount of amber to harvest! I believe I harvested at the perfect time, on the "smelling peak" 😋 Only "the ugly" haven't been harvested yet. She will need at least 2 more weeks compared to her sisters. But she is definitly fattening well! Drying plants in the tent, light & The Ugly moved outside of the tent. I hanged the full plants, without removing leaves or branches, So I wasn't abble to measure "wet weight". First 24 hours of drying: humidity at 60%, Temp: 18°C. After 24h : 50-55% humidity, Temp : 17°C - 18°C. I would lower temps, but I just can't. PURPLE QUEST... IS IT OVER? -------------------------------- If you follow my diary since multiples week, you already know the answer. No, this strain isn't what I'm looking. This 7th attempt is a failure regarding my Purple Quest, but It's a success for me who love good tasting weed more than everything else. Buds are still drying. They will need like one more week and some trimming, before first smoke review. But the smell is so far from what I'm looking for. I'm searching for something more floral. I doubt this strong Sweet and fresh applejuice smell could turn into something close of my expected "Purple". I'll update this diary with effect/taste description as soon as I can! It will probably need something like another week of drying. I usually do a smoke review after the trimming, before the curing. And I update my review after 1 month curing. TRIMING UPDATE : After 16 days of drying, I trimmed all the buds. I will update total weight soon. In jar, curring! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Thanks for reading, during thoses 4 months! Thanks for all your feedbacks, and kind words that boosted my motivation :) I'll start a new diary verry soon. I just need to get that tent emptied of thoses drying buds ^^ 20 plants in 1gallon pots, 8 genetics (only autos !). It's gonna be CRAZY !! Once again, Happy new year, and Happy smokes :) See you soon <3 Purpleworship 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

@PurpleWorship, nah, they are good, i don't care so much about couple spots on first leaves ;) you have to try products, to understand what and when, failure is success sometimes too !!!

@AsNoriu, It was important to me you like it, because you made me realise previous ones were not that great. I really appreciated this feedback, because i didn't noticed the problem, and I been abble to improve my pictures after that. I'm verry verry sorry about your bad experience with leafcoat :S Why did you applied it that early? An emergency I guess.. :S ? I only used it way later, when plant well grown. Each time I'm applying a product (like black soap), I'm pre-spraying my plants, so leaves drink as much as they can, and then when it's dry, I apply the product. Anyway dude... I hope they'll recover :/

@PurpleWorship, ;)))) i am not your nasty Spanish teacher ;)))) All the best in your adventure, hope you'll find that taste in those girls ! I have tried to use LeafCoat on youngsters, 8th day, got burn, even after first application during first night. Be cautious with it, i know you like the stuff ;))

That purple taste you are referring to I found the perfect cannabis from stones coffee shop in Amsterdam around 2009. It was a blueberry x a reversed purple kush. In my top 3 ever smokes for sure if not too 1. I think a purple kush x blueberry strain is what I would be hunting if trying to replicate that quite rare mix of terpenes.

@PurpleWorship, grand daddy purple is on my list to grow funny enough, I was looking at the version from the originators grand daddy purple seeds which had a similar description to what I remember from 2009. They also had them in regular which is another plus point in my opinion being more stable than a feminised strain. I think that would be a very good chance to finding that terp we crave, also sell them in fem too. I think medical seeds also do a Mendocino purple kush in fem which I have pondered buying a few times over the years but I got caught up in the hype of these new over hyped low yielding hemi prone strains😂 in fact the only hype strain that I found stood out was barneys runtz muffin which with the right pheno looks crazy (several examples in my diaries) and hits like a truck but again low yielding and hemi prone if you even look at it funny while in the grow room😂 In the UK we had purple haze around 1996-1997 which had the first type of purple taste arrive which I wish I had some seeds of but like many other fantastic strains from years ago that genetic pool seems missing from today’s market. The cookie crosses have done as much bad as good for the cannabis connoisseurs in my humble opinion. I will be sure to follow your diaries and hope you find what you are looking for my purple hunting brother👊

Good luck finding your purple bro! I agree on the pots, I've got some lavender I started in them and they fall over or are just super awkward to water! Wider is better! I use 3 gal pots but thought I'd buy 5 gal measure 3 gal and cut the excess pot away (fabric obviously), giving me the extra vertical space and making watering a little easier 😝
PurpleWorship
PurpleWorship
@InspireMe, I tried corriander in it too, and miserably failed :D It need way more attention than with other pots, because it just accelerate water dissipation. And also, there is not that much plants that would benefit from a so deep pot that tight. Carrots maybe XD? Weirdly designed to be honnest.

@Mrs_Larimar, Damn I were is my first answer!? I was saying that I was calling her "my pretty Ugly" so I think it's totally fine :) My pictures are good when I get plant outside, under sun light. But I can't make decent photos in the grow tent... The light spectrum is messing with my camera so much lol. "I really like your grow-description and your thoughts." Thanks :) I'm trying to share interesting thoughts without going crazy with data / techy details. I'm glad you find it appreciable :)
