I haven't done anything to this plant except to pluck a few leafs here and there. It kind of grew funny right from day 1, but it came back and is going to produce a very nice main cola with a few med-lrg buds from the only two side branches. Gotta love the PURPLE!!! The smell is off the charts kind of sour with a sweet and floral undertone. Should be a couple more weeks and it will be time to chop this girl as she is a little further ahead than the other two, so another week of finish and then water until the end. Smok'em if you got'em!!!! The Light for this grow is from Unit Farm, the UF 4000 with IR and UV, it has detachable drivers and uses 400 watts of power.. Took a little bit to find the sweet spot with this light, the plants let you know right away if the light is to close or to far away and you can adjust accordingly. This is my first grow with this light and I'm liking it so far, the light covers the 4x4 tent well and the plants are happy underneath it..

The basil is a nice touch. Wishing you better luck with the backup PK, happy growing.

@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!!!

@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.

@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!!

@northernMike, Hey Mike. If you had to choose between the two seed banks, which one was the better smoke?
northernMike
northernMike
@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!!

@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.

@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˜€..
