Well, let's go week 14. Im happy that she is healthy no over/underwater signs, no burns,no changes on the leafs, but i feel that they don't change mutch. Buds aren't huge and probably they won't be bigger, time will tell i guess.
I have read that defoliation might help in boosting yield, so I have plucked some fan leaves. I think it looks decent.
Smell started to be noticalbe, classic green one. So far she was very stealthy.
@AdamCanna, Hi mate, that colour you are looking for is mostly genetic indeed, Shaman has on average about 75% coloured genes, 25% can turn green. Night temperatures can cause colourful hues but that doesn't make the buds completely purple like on the main picture. If you want more info on the way it works, please have a look here : https://dutch-passion.com/en/blog/what-do-the-different-weed-colours-indicate-n1025

I do hope you will find that special purple/pinkish pheno mate, good luck and enjoy growing! 😎
@DutchPassion_Official,
Thank you, i feel noticed. Im happy how the strain looks.
But i have one question thats been on my mind lately. Its about purple colour,Im awere that its too early for this plant to develop different hues.
I was looking around for growers of this strain and i have found that some of them got great looking plants but their plants didn't developed purple shades even to the time of harvest. Why is that ?
I have read that its partialy about Genetics, some just do and some don't develop that colouring. But i have also read that it is about lowering temperature at night. I dont know how to lower the temperature in my grow box :(
So here is my main question, is there any other way to ensure or increase the chances for developing purple hue in this strain ?
Colour was one of the main resons why im growing this strain, on the main pictures its just looks otherworldly beautiful.
She looking good man
Some plants go a bit slow in beginning but that's also because we see her everyday 😄
In the next weeks she will definitely bulk up.
U can only control temperature, Feeding and humidity now, all the rest is up to her haha
Happy growing buddy 🙏
