does vanilla frosting typically not purple up, there is almost none on the entire plant, i was understanding the vegetative growth would gradually turn purple as phosphorous uptake increased?
It will change colours in the cold weather once its ready to harvest.
The phoenotype will dictate if it will purple up.
example. fastbuds blackberry is aorund 50/50 purple vs green.
however the Dinafem Dinamed CBD Kush auto has always been purple for me.
All boils down to how well the seeds are locked into their desired traits from the breeding practise. Given most places do not breed the plants are just while label resellers there is little control.
Good Luck!
in your diary i see white hairs in other pictures... so it is at least partly female female. still keep an eye on her... stuff doesn't happen overnight so don't need to be obsessive to catch it, just diligent. nanners are annoying, and sac are bad.
averagish height around 47 inches, tallest are closer to 5 feet. bottom branches are 3 to 4 feet, pruned to the point of lollipopping?
i left the leaves for balance and stress distribution in the wind.
she is shedding a few on her own now as well, i will let her fully absorb, probably fall naturally unless an issue is spotted.
I feed nitrogen from seed to harvest. I also grow in soil with dry amendments "gaia green" vs liquid feed, but the plant still uses nitrogen in its flowering stage 100%. Its a myth that it does not use it. Granted to much nitrogen in some plants can cause them to not produce as many flowers or any at all and focus on leaf growth. I don't feel cannabis is like this but to much can hurt your yields as it will lock out other nutrients and it can make the feeding solution to strong in terms of EC/PPM.
guessing you mean fractal of branches as in bushing out or creating more growth points. Nitrogen will not affect this as much as training techniques do or genetics.
Good Luck & Happy Growing!

turned out she was looking for calcium claiming back those leaves, a heavy dose in a 5 gallon flush and she doubled the trichomes growing on leaves particularly.
on topped plants outdoors is it generally advised to cut the apical flowers? they are the last the grow generally and are considerably smaller than the flowers several inches down the main stems.
how many racemes? do people strive for? 2...3.
is 4 even possible?
on topped (twice, 3 branches on each) outdoor plants do people generally cut the apical flowers? the are under-performing relative to the flowers a few inches lower.
I would not, just let it be as is if your new to growing.
My lower buds are airy and less bag appeal but they still get me high.
Good Luck!

It's an option, for sure. If they are finished and all the trichomes on the top buds are at least cloudy, snip them off and start drying them. I have a friend that does this and his plants handle it just fine. He snips any buds when they are finished and lets the others keep going until perfect, until his plant is harvested.
I hope this helps.
High Loganchan,
You can cut the lowest 30% from your plants... You want the plant to focus her energy on the big fat buds on top of the plant.
Happy Growing! 😋

cal/mag has been added to the daily feeding schedule, even full clouds all day i am still giving it some. at night.
the secondary flower set has started, still wondering if 3 or 4 is the general goal with outdoor sativa's.
also there is a kola that is under performing at the apical flowers, but slightly better a few inches down. do people cut these flowers away? if yes, do you leave the leaves or cut the stem entirely off below the last underperforming flower?
High loganchan,
NO PLEASE DO NOT CUT!!!
They will still fatten up and your plants look beautiful. I can see from the leaves that this is a sativa strain. The buds stay smaller and growing takes longer. So be patient with your plant and she will give you big, fat and juicy buds as a reward in return!
Happy Growing! 😋
It is growing just fine, maybe if you would give some nutrient would help, and NO!!! Do not cut yet far too early it looks like a week 5 or even 4 into flower... let it grow!!
Are you asking if you should cut this ONE branch? I certainly wouldn't... unless they're shading other bud sites that are bigger and better... let them go to their full potential - you don't know what that will be!
Good luck!

strong lemon, hints of anise.
it hits like a truck, helps me sleep which is nice. the larger buds on the counter are 6 to 11 grams, smaller ones 2 to 4.
total yield was 10.5 ounces of flower, 4.5 ounces of trim and very loose flowers. i did not weigh the flowers wet.
had a couple high stress events, one late in flower.
finding a few seeds here there all in all it is very good marijuana, was hoping for a little more density. life goes on.
