And so my quest begins. Hopefully, the experience of my first grow will help me get good results and beautiful purple colors if the phenotype allows it. Very excited about this grow!
I had very funky, but not such, yours reminds more clone, mine was self toping, made buds on leaves and hermied at 5th week of flower.
Could be risk, but could he big reward, very thick girl, should go monster ...
They have grown very nicely over the past few days. Decided that it's the right time for some LST.
Black Cream is still growing very weird but very fast as well. It has one huge leaf with a double stem which looks kinda cool.
All 3 of them are having some pre-flower signs. Crossing my fingers that I'll have purple phenotypes.
Going very nicely so far. I have been keeping the main stem down for the past few days with LST clips and bent new stems to the side as they appear.
All 3 are showing some small signs of purple, can't wait to see it develop.
Red Poison is already entering flowering. Black Cream and Dark Devil are pretty close too, gonna start with bloom nutes on red poison next week.
All 3 entered flowering and all 3 are showing purple leaves and buds. They grew quite a lot during the past few days, this will be the last week I'll do LST. Next week I might defoliate the bottom to get fewer popcorn buds if there won't be any problems.
Can't wait to see these purple buds develop, they are gonna look amazing!
Had some overfeeding issues with red poison with too much N resulting in a calcium lockout. Gonna stop giving nutrients since the trichomes are almost all cloudy with some amber ones. Might harvest in a few days. Smells very nice and has good looking colors.
Gave both Black Cream and Dark Devil less N which resulted in a slight deficiency, they seem a lot more nutrient hungry than Red Poison. Both of them have very dark purple colors, looks very nice.
Buds are developing nicely, Red Poison can be harvested in 1 week, the others might need 2-3 more weeks. All are smelling very strong. Black Cream in particular has a really nice sweet berry-like smell. Can't wait to taste that one.
Very good progress on the buds, they have grown in size and density a lot in the past few days. The trichomes are 80% cloudy and 20% clear. Might harvest next week if they are 20% amber.
They have a very deep purple color, almost black even, getting darker every day. Can't wait to get some black buds after drying.
They both have a very sweet fruity smell, with dark devil leaning more into the tropical smell and Black Cream having hints of caramel in it. I hope they taste how they smell.
Gonna give them 1 more dose of bloom nutes and top max and then only give them water for the rest of the grow.
1 week before harvest I saw some white dots on some of the leaves which might be spider mites. It's not that spread out yet and only on a few small leaves, I have seen no webbing either. Do I harvest ASAP or will the plants endure a few more days without it affecting the buds?
If you only have a few more days, I wouldn't worry about them.... but you're going to have to really sterilize your tent and equipment once she's harvested so future grows won't be hosting them!
Good luck! Glad to see you found your purple!!
Grew really well with fast growth early on and many side branches to do LST on. The buds developed very fast and after 60 days from seed I could harvest.
Very resinous with very nice looking dark purple buds, almost black even. Most buds are not as dense as Dark Devils with the exception of some top buds. A few buds had fox tailing as well. Smells very sweet with hints of caramel.
Grew really weird early on with some interesting leave patterns. Grew fast with many side branches for LST and the main stem produced multiple top buds which stick to the side instead of one main bud.
Hey, two will be funky colours for sure ! ;)
Dont do any defoliation, girls are too small, tuck leaves, train stems, but try to leave as many as you can ...
On second photo, you can easily see few shading leaves, but if you pull them to empty space/aside, those covered shoots will get light and overgrow it, but you will keep solar panel ...
You can and should take off those who touch soil/medium, maybe few future popcorn buds could be cleared a bit around main stem, but its hard to say, when you judge from photos.
On third photo NO LEAVES should be taken off.
Forth photo plant looks like having few fan leaves hanging above other, so maybe bottom one should go in such cases ...
