This was the first week in their permanent home. Pretty standard. Plant them in dirt add water, leave them alone keep the RH high until the roots have established.
I added a small fan to russle the leaves so they grow up strong.
Had a pretty substantial fungus gnat infestation the middle of week 2. Attacked it with sticky paper and nematodes. Seems to be under control but will keep an eye out.
Sadly the dark purple didn't sprout. I left it an extra week just in case but it's a no go. Probably for the best as 4 plants is a bit much for my little tent.
Good work man! Just ordered myself some of these, what’s your lights off temps like...? I’m sure the cooler dark periods induce and encourage the purples to show
@Antaquarium, sounds like you’ve got it all on point with temps! I also wouldn’t go lower than 15.
A shorter day cycle might have helped, usually it’s just down to the pheno, I wish you all the best with the next ones too! I’ll be watching! :)
Hey @Gardener_of_Goodness, the lights off temps have been about 15°C but I'm not getting any purple. Kind of disappointing but they are healthy so I can't complain. I'm not really able to drop it any lower right now and don't want to mess with a good thing. They only get to about 22°C with lights on.
Maybe if I was running an 18h cycle instead of 20 they'd be cooler for longer and that would bring the purp?
I still have a few of these seeds left that I'll play with on my next run and see if I can add a little colour to my stash.
Happy growing!
