I've seen many growers grow this beauty and I didn't want to be left behind with this variety, so thanks to WSE I'm finally going to try it! 👌🏽🌱
Well, seed germinated in H2O at PH 6.5 and placed in the pot for seedlings. Placed in the dark and with its heat mat. It remains to wait for the seedling to appear.
This girl will grow outdoors, but due to the somewhat unstable weather she will spend at least the first week under 🌞 TS1000. Then it will go outside until 📆 harvest day.
My super soil mix is cooking, using Plagron's RoyalMix as a base, so it will be ready just in time to transplant the seedlings.
See you soon...👍🏽🌱

Hi growers!
📆 End Week 1 Seedlings, Day 7
🌱 Granddaddy Purple, this is great, another wonder of nature lol, what do we do with this?, can I help her? Or do I wait a couple more days to see what happens?... The leaves look like they are formed and wanting to "breathe" and stretch. Well... what a dilemma.
I'm adding a couple of drops of root stimulator to the H2O. I water 10ml every time I see the soil dry enough (I like this particular one from Top Crop for seedlings 👌🏽).The soil is kept at a good temperature and I also added another boost for the roots, mycorrhizae. I'm giving it a mix of natural light and that provided by my little beast!, the 🌞 TS-1000.
💦 Watering 10ml H2O + root stimulator when soil is dry enough 🌡️ Temp. 20ºC PH 6.6
🔝 Height 5cm
Well, we'll see next week 👍🏽🌱

Hi growers!
📆 End Week 2 Seedlings, Day 14
🌱 Granddaddy Purple , finally had to help her a bit to break the cotyledon "binds" and here she is... She's thriving but a few steps behind in development compared to the other WSE seeds, I don't know if it's luck or bad luck but the start it's being abrupt. Let's see with the passing of the weeks that this dwarf comes out.

Hi growers!
📆 End Week 3, now begins Veg Stage, Day 21
🌱 Granddaddy Purple , It seems that her growth and development is improving, the size that she is taking seems good, I have hopes for her.
I water 5ml every time I see the soil dry enough.

Hi growers!
📆 End Week 4, Veg Stage, Day 28
🌱 Granddaddy Purple , thriving pretty well for a cotyledon slow start...is making up for lost time. It is going well....
I'm still giving it a mix of natural light and that provided by my little beast!, the 🌞 TS-1000.
💦 Fed 15ml H2O+root stimulator 🌡️ Temp. 19.4ºC PH 6.4

Hi growers!
📆 End Week 5, Veg Stage, Day 35
🌱 Granddaddy Purple , very pretty, is growing without complaints and without pauses. The main stem began to thicken, a sign that the roots are growing and developing as they should. Today I applied the apical cut to this girl, I want to try to get a very leafy bush full of this strain. As you can see, I have already started feeding these girls, but with a minimum amount, more than anything to be able to provide some extra micronutrients, since the soil is complete and organic (Royal Mix).

Hi growers!
📆 End Week 6, Veg Stage, Day 42
🌱 Granddaddy Purple , this girl is growing perfectly, not a single complaint on her part... she is very healthy and strong. Soon I will apply LST to continue training it, I want to get a nice bush of this strain. She is really enjoying being in the sun at last 👌🏽.
For now watering mostly with H2O + root stimulator 2 times a week at PH 6.5 - 6.8, the rest of the waterings are H2O at PH 6.5 - 6.8. When I water with simple H2O, I do it from below, to stimulate the roots in their search for H2O, at the same time avoiding the annoying Fungus Gnats for now.
The soil was enriched with Diatoms as a preventive in case some insect eggs/larvae arrived and in turn to enrich the soil.
At dawn and dusk it is sprayed with Urtimax for foliar intake, it is to provide micronutrients but above all as an enhancer of the plant's immune system, the outdoor is more delicate....
Well, we'll see next week 👍🏽🌱

Hi growers!
📆 End Week 7, Veg Stage, Day 49
🌱 Granddaddy Purple, It is splendid, I applied LST to it and it responded perfectly, it recovered vigorously. I also applied Topping to 6 shoots, they will multiply by 2. This strain grows really vigorously, I like it.
Also watered by mother earth, so I can not worry for a few days, it just needs the sun to shine again constantly.
I added to all the girls some biological allies to repel / eliminate pests or possible pests, the most common of these beauties. I've never tried this system, I'm quite curious about its effectiveness.

She look good Today 🎶😎
Hi growers!
📆 End Week 8, Veg Stage, Day 56
🌱 Granddaddy Purple, this beauty shows quite robust and malleable genetics. Responds very well to LST and other techniques for now.
Looks great in her new and final 11L fabric pot (from RQS, they're gorgeous). I also added mycorrhizae to the soil.
She gives off a more powerful smell of weed than the rest of the girls.
I didn't have to worry about watering either, mother earth did it for me.
Since yesterday it is sunny but a few more rainy days are expected.
Well, we'll see next week 👍🏽🌱

Hi growers!
📆 End Week 9, Veg Stage, Day 63
🌱 Granddaddy Purple, It thrives very well, without any complaints and it has a very nice intense dark green color. It is already showing pistils on some of its branches.
She recovered very well from the LST and was in the shape I was looking for.
She received a watering with Compost Tea (1L), it will do her very well.
Well, we'll see next week 👍🏽🌱
