This is a weird little plant, it didn't do much stretching at all and the side branches didn't grow or catch up with the rest of the plant. It still seems healthy with a beautiful purple colour. Keeping the light approx. 40 inches from this plant, if I get any closer the leafs start to curl and shy away from the light. I've only been feeding once a week because she just doesn't drink very much. The only thing I've done to this plant is to remove a few leafs, that's it. 0 training, no topping, should end up with 3 large buds and a few smaller ones. I guess you can't get a huge harvest everytime, but you know what they say, DYNOMITE COMES IN SMALL PACKAGES๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ˜‹.. The light, UF 4000 supplied by Unit farm- 400 watts, plug and play, adjustable by height only, no dimmer. So far I'm really liking this light๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘..Just took a bit of getting used to as it is quite powerful and very bright. The seed is from Canuk seeds- Purple Kush auto.

The basil is a nice touch. Wishing you better luck with the backup PK, happy growing.
northernMike
northernMikecommented2 years ago
@4chuk, Basil is easy to clone, I just chop a branch from the plant and stick it directly in soil, right in the pot your herb grows in and it usually takes and grows some roots within a week or so. Sometimes it doesn't work, but most times it does and I always have fresh basil on hand for whatever I'm cooking๐Ÿ˜€.. Smok'em if you got'em!!!
4chuk
4chukcommented2 years ago
@northernMike, That's really interesting. I grow basil with my tomatoes as it repels some pests and is said to enhance the flavour of the tomatoes, so I would not be at all surprised if there were beneficial effects on cannabis as well. I actually cleared out all the basil in my outdoor garden just a few days ago, shucks. Keep experimenting buddy. A great day to you also.
northernMike
northernMikecommented2 years ago
@4chuk,Thanks๐Ÿ‘Š. I did some reading and apparently the basil plant will help make your plant more resinous whether it's planted in the same pot or just beside. After the clones get settled I'll clone more basil plants right in the same pots as my herb, Plus it's nice to have fresh basil for spagetti sauces etc. Have a great day!!!

Looking good neighbor. I enjoy growing PK. It's an easy grow. Good luck. I will be following this one. Happy Growing ๐Ÿ˜™๐Ÿ’จ

@MooSnuckle69, Sonoma seeds, purple kush auto,( two plants) and the bag appeal was awesome, super purple, but I've only tried these genetics once. Canuk seeds, auto purple kush was an easy plant to grow the bag appeal was O.K with just some tinges of purple, and I've only grown this strain from Canuk a couple times. The smoke from both strains was very good, but if I had to choose with what I know so far I'd say the Sonoma seeds wins hands down, but I might change my mind after this plant is harvested, we'll see, I'm hoping for a dark purple this time!!๐Ÿ™.. Have a great day!!

MooSnuckle69commented2 years ago
@northernMike, Hey Mike. If you had to choose between the two seed banks, which one was the better smoke?
northernMike
northernMikecommented2 years ago
@MooSnuckle69, Thanks for stopping by๐Ÿ‘Š.. I've grown a few of this strain, the best was from Sonoma seeds. The plants turned into an awesome shade of Purple, super dark, the last one from Canuk seeds just had some purple tinges but the smoke was good๐Ÿ‘Œ.. Later!!

i agree this is ahappy plant, and you found agood distance with the light

@Mrs_Larimar, This light seems really powerful so I'm still keeping the light quite high above the canopy for now, right around 3 feet and the plants are happy..

@Louder,The plants with the big purple colours were from a different seed company(sonoma seeds) this one is from Canuk seeds, I'm hoping for a dark purple, we'll see ๐Ÿ˜‘.. Picked up a jug of Purpinator๐Ÿ‘ maybe this will help..

@Tropicannibis_Todd,Thanks๐Ÿ‘Š. This will be the second time growing this strain from Canuk seeds(Great Herb) although it didn't turn near as purple as the couple that I grew from Sonoma seeds, those were so purple they were almost black ๐Ÿ˜. Both strains produced some excellent herb, loved to smoke it in the evening๐Ÿ‘Œbecause it is a nice relaxing high and the flavour was very powerful, hard to explain. Later!!

@SwissKush,Looks to a good one, the smell is off the charts and it's getting a bit sticky, But the whole plant is a little stunted. Not sure why, but I think it had a root problem early on.

Crazy looking color! Looks beautiful bro!
northernMike
northernMikecommented2 years ago
@DEVS_GENETICS,Thanks again, Last time from Canuk seeds the Purple Kush only had a tinge of colour, but the plant was way bigger. This time the colour is a very deep purple with loads of sugar, but the plant stayed rather small with only two side branches and a large main cola. The joy of growing auto's, you never know what to expect, always an experiment๐Ÿ˜ต๐Ÿ˜€..
