Verry easy plant. Strong resistance against bugs in the outdoor. I had lot of differents insects, but it always got very limited and kept under control.
The plant amost had no feeding, except on the last weeks of flowering. I just had a little Cal/mag deficiency during veg. But went well.

I grown 2 plants at the same time. This one (Blackberry Diary) and also a Gelato from Fastbuds.
The Gelato had Biobizz during all the growing... And the result is wayyyyy better : Bigger and verry denses flowers.
Not the same strains, but That's still a good sign.
Bio-Bloom
Top-Max
Bio-Grow
Fish-Mix
On the end, I believe it's a verry nice strain for a begginer. Even with no feeding, and just regular gardening soil, I had amazing results.
The plant was outdoor in the day, indoor during the night, so facing all the agression from the outside.... GG Blackberry ^^
The flowers are verry light, and that's because of the absence of feeding. They are very fluffy and not dense.
But they are fully covered of trichomes, and have a pleasant smell and taste. Smooth smoke.
So amazing result for my experience, and for the setup :)
I'm disapointed about the taste for now. Maybe curing will change the taste, but for me it's mainly "Diesel" and that's definitly not what I was looking for.
UPDATE AFTER 1 MONTH OF CURING :
Well, i just realize the taste changed, and with a good flower (not too much leaves) i actually felt the taste of... Blackberries. IT's actually amazing :D Not berries, but really blackberries !!
I will grow this strain again, but with feeding during veg and flowering, to get bigger and more dense buds. This one was too much leafy, and this is not the best for the taste.
My "quest" for the "purple" taste I'm looking for continue.
Next batch : I will try Purple Kush (auto) from Buddha Seeds, and Queen Sherbet from Royal Queen Seeds !

Grow Questions
PurpleWorshipstarted grow question 4 years ago
I know It's a Nitrogen deficiency. No nuts during veg (and fine!), and she's having flowering nuts since 2 days.
I know it's normal at the end of the flowering, but i'm wondering if that's too soon !?
Not sure how many time left before harvest!? Big problem or not?

It's nothing to worry about.. Gonna be a nice harvest!
PurpleWorshipstarted grow question 4 years ago
I'll have a microscope next week.
But since i got a "not too bad" macro photo with my phone, could you share your opinion with me?
I believe Trichomes are at the "cloudy" stage, am i right ? At what stage should I stop feeding? (the flush)
(First grow ever)
Thanks !! π

From what I can see my friend Your close to a 55-45 Milky to Clear. Give her another week I think before starting your flush maybe a bit longer.. You will be able to tell for sure when your Microscope comes.. Stop feeding and do your flush usually around the 70-30% Milky Clear and look for 20-30% amber on your buds for your harvest indicator! Hope this helps! Happy growing!
PurpleWorshipstarted grow question 4 years ago
I wonder if i should harvest now ?
Could you have a look to my photos and give me your advice ?
I'm looking for good taste, with recreational effect, but balanced with a bit of relaxing effect...
Well, a nice balanced indica effect. Should i wait for more "amber" ?
Thanks ! <3

You'll wavy to wait a couple of weeks for the effect you're after, they're still building bugs and pushing white hairs, wait for that to slow down, the smell should get stronger and the buds will gain a bit more weight. Harvesting early is way worse than harvesting later. π±π

@Fast_Buds, Day48, the end isn't for tomorrow, okay... But still... I'm amazed about how she is an easy grow. Using cheap gardening soil from supermarket, no nuts since the begining except one shot of cal/mag, and she's looking so pretty and so strong !
Excited to see it growing, excited to smoke it.. But cutting it gonna be experienced like a drama lol

@PurpleWorship, Hey! SO we generally recommend against transplanting as it can damage the roots, and autos don't have a lot of time to recover from damage, so it can potentially stunt them. However, if you feel you can do it carefully, go for it. Though we also recommend using between 3 and 5 gallons usually. 7+ could be a little excessive. It's totally up to you!

@Fast_Buds, I have a question :) What is the recommended pot size for the blackberry ? I *may* transfert from a 10L plastic pot, to a 30L fabric pot, probably on week 3 or 4. Do you recommend it ?
Will the plant really benefit from it ? Do the probable Stress involved worth it? Thanks π

@smoker420,Hey dude :)
I looked to that strain some weeks ago. Was sounding promising. But i read some tastes reviews, talking about lemon/citric taste. That's absolutely not I'm looking for.
But describing the taste i'm searching is verry hard :S How do it taste for you ?

Iβve had trouble growing this one. The main stem of both attempts was tall but I get almost no secondary stem growth. Yours looks similar but better. Damn the smoke was good though. My first couch lock strain. Great medicine.

Hi mate, maybe try a bit of a bigger pot to get the full potential out of your plant. You can buy 27.5L βfabpotsβ online and theyβre cheap and really good. I usually do autos in this size pot and the roots Fill it! Happy growing

SouthernUKgrowercommented5 years ago
@PurpleWorship, brilliant! When you transplant, make sure you donβt leave it too late regarding the roots. When ever Iβve transplanted autos and let the root system grow to the pot they stress a lot, so do it as soon as you get them. I use rhizatonic by Canna for my root stimulant and Iβd highly recommend it π

@SouthernUKgrower, Been abble to find a 30L fabric pot :) SHOULD receive it in.... 7-14 days. Thanks again for the recommandation, you been credited in the diary π
Do you have any recommandation about the transfert from the hard pot to the fabric pot ? I'm verry concerned about this...
I'm not sure how to do it... At this point, i think I may plunge my both hands in dirt up to the bottom, under roots, and act like a big bracket, to collect maximum amount of dirt, and then transfert to the new pot...
Should i do it ASAP (week 2-3) or wait a bit more so the roots get more "solid" ? Thanks ^^

PurpleWorshipcommented5 years ago
@SouthernUKgrower, Allright! I'm gonna search for it! Might be difficult to find one these days, but I'll try :D Transplant from 10L to 27L shouldn't be a problem/source of stress at this stage.
Thanks for the tips :)

Give her 2 weeks with Water and TopMax! Maybe 3 Weeks more i think!

@PurpleWorship, 3 weeks is no Problem, and cut the yellow leafes. I do this also. I think is better when the Light shining on the buds.

PurpleWorshipcommented4 years ago
@Bud_Spencer, Thanks for this advice. Some other growers shared their opinion with me, saying that i had at least 2 more weeks.
Which is perfect. 3 weeks would be much more better, since it will allow me to feed her with Topmax for 2 weeks...

Good job Purps, you are truly loyal and I regret not returning the βlikeβ favour sooner. The first thing that jumped out to me was the week to week picture quality. Very normal, functional photos, but just quality. Nice work!

@@BeanswithPork, Thanks for your kind comment :) I think you are totally on point.
I'm using my cheap $100 phone to take those photos. But for 10 pictures uploaded, I take arround 100 photos. (I did the maths earlier today ^^).
I'm using photoshop to make sure the color perfectly match reality (I'm taking pictures near my LED lights, so colors are often too much saturated, leaves looking yellow instead of green), and to fix the "blur" effect from my cheap phone. But that's all, I'm not cheating :)
So I can't make awesome pictures, but I still can show the best part of the plants. I love catching the details that are meaningfull in a diary : the little things that tell you that the plant is reaching another step. I'm not trying to make beautiful photos, I'm trying to document the life of a living form. Nature and life is pretty by design to me :)
