Transferred to a bigger pot, leaves look a bit droopy but it should recover fine. Supercropped last week as well and started training the branches out to open up for more light

Finally back after missing last week, plants seemed to be overwatered in previous pics so i left them for 3 days which they didnt like. So after increasing the watering schedule to every day they have responded heaps better and seem great.

Moved to a larger pot and im watering 8L every two days. This plant is so tall! Can’t wait for it to put some weight on in the coming weeks i’ll start adding some PK13/14 soon. My pics kinda suck because I was strapped for time

So it’s starting to get there I wish I had more volume on the buds though. Any thoughts or am I just being impatient? Loving the cool colours that have appeared just a little concerned about the smallish size of the buds. Hoping its just developing slower than the others. It smells so good though when i lift it to water, the smell is just incredible If you guys have any ideas i’m happy to hear them, on the same light/nutrient schedule to the others

Wow this plant is insane. It grew so much so quickly, to think I was worried about it not putting on weight, it certainly proved me wrong as its so big I have to support the buds up so they dont fall over. Keeping the environment cooler has really brought out the purple and im guessing it will come out even more during the drying stage. Such a cool plant with how it grows and the smell is just amazing, definitely give this a grow if you get the chance its really cool!

@notmrks I'm going to be grabbing a chair for this one 😄 Do you have any idea of what breeder this GDP is from?
HighTV
HighTVcommented6 years ago
@notmrks, On their website they are displaying the dark purple phenotype so you should be good 😁 If not then try 'Kens GDP' next. Hes the creator the Original GDP and crossed it between itself a bunch to guarantee that deep purple color you see in the caveman seeds pictures.

@HighTV, @Raaneal, Hey Guys, Not sure of the breeder, in the description it says Granddaddy Purple F3. I purchased it from Caveman Seeds and they have some pics up there. I’m really excited to try this one, flowers are apparently purple which sounds cool as!
Raaneal
Raanealcommented6 years ago
@notmrks Would be interested in knowing where from also.

@Njanne, I got them from cavemanseeds in Australia, they are long gone though. Good luck in your search though!

@notmrks, which seed bank did you get yours from? I want the real deal :)

@Njanne, If you get the chance you definitely should its been great to grow

Wow, she got a lot darker, didn't she? I just experienced Nitrogen toxicity on my plants and the leafs on your girl look very similarly (dark and shiny) so watch out if they start creating claws 😉 Happy growing!
Butrus

@notmrks, Oh I see, it was definitely just the light then. She looks great :)

Man, is there actually a single place without flower on the stems?! She looks like a real bad ass, just awesome 👌👍

notmrkscommented6 years ago
@Butrus, Such a cool plant! Needs heaps of support because the buds can hardly stand up they are so heavy

Nice girl! She's tall and sturdy. I'm following along, can't wait to see how swole her colas get!

@ElevatedThinking, Thanks man me either hope they swell up over the next few weeks

Hey @notmrks! She looks nice and healthy so be patient, some simply take their time and looking at # of the bud sites (which are almost everywhere!) I guess she probably can not create that much mass/volume in a short time on all of them. Good luck and happy growing 👊

I’ll upload more pics for the next week but I really hope I get more weight on the plant it hasnt grown as quick as the others. They all get the same nutrients and light so i’m hoping its just a slow start.
