For anyone wondering about the drip line. It was intended to be added, but just didn't have time. I have been watering with a submersible pump to a garden hose to a retractable spray head. Makes it super easy to reach across the tent and water plants quickly and easily.

Hello growers!
Thanks for joining me for another update in my grow adventure with Grandaddy Purple from Blimburn Seeds!
She was moved to 12/12 on 8/8/2020
Observation: She looks happy and healthy with nice green coloration. No indications of toxicity or deficiency and no indications of pests or disease. She has a ton of tops and will likely need thinning in the near future. Hoping for a nice stretch!
Method: I am holding back on defoliation until after she finishes her stretch in an effort to avoid stunting. I added some Dutch White Clover as a cover crop. Cover crops are new territory for me. Not only does it look cool, but I have read that it offers several benefits to your plants and rhizosphere. I plan to defoliate rather heavily around week 3 or so of 12/12, after she's done stretching.
Thanks again for joining me. Please let me know if you have questions or concerns. Any thoughts, suggestions, or feedback is welcome and encouraged.
As always, happy growing!
Peace, love, and frosty nugs!

@amazongrow, She's still in veg, but she will still grow a lot before she goes into the flower room. I pack them in there pretty tight. I am no expert here, so idk what she will yield. Just being honest. Next run I want to try more of a SOG type grow in half of the tent. The other half I will continue the way I have been growin to see difference in yield. I am still finding my style
By bigger, do you mean taller or what? I thought I should keep my canopy from getting too deep to ensure light penetrates through the bottom. Any suggestions or feedback is always appreciated! Thanks for stopping by the garden!
One of my favs strains 🦄 awesome for my anxiety ! Trying to buy the one from grand daddy purps ,, but they only sell a 10 pack =( Attitude seed bank
Your girl is a survivor ! Damm .. lets see how fat she gets! 😋
Im following this one 😉
@NatureBoyNeo, Yeah, this pheno (it's a cutting from a previous run) isn't anything worthy of the name Grandaddy Purple. Not fruity and not purple, but who knows... Maybe she will show some different traits under the quantum boards. Last run she was under an AGLEX 3000 w/cobs. All that being said, she IS super potent and still really enjoyable.
I'd like to get my hands on some of the GDP beans from Grand Daddy Purp. The original bred by Ken Estes. I used to get some black market GDP that is really just untouchable. Supposedly the producers lost the mom and I have never had anything of that calibre of bud since. It was dense with chunky nugs. It was super potent and incredibly frosty. And it was a beautiful color purple with a shiney white/silver frost and really no green to speak of... Just solid purple buds with bright contrasting orange hairs. It smelled and tasted like Fruity Pebbles cereal. Really just something special. I miss that stuff.
@MrJones, Yeah, my helper took a cutting from a plant in mid flower. She struggled a bit at first and then I put her through all kinds of hell. She has been through a lot and has come a long way. She was lanky last run, but hoping the new lighting might reduce some stretching in early flower.
@FoTwenny, nice. The cutting is from blimburns seed? Do you make seeds? I always regret not making special S1s but theres so many other things to grow!
@GYOweed, This lady was from a cutting and I kept her because she was very potent the first time I ran her. That was prior to upgrading the lighting and she came out so much nicer this run!
@NatureBoyNeo, Thanks for stopping by with some positivity!!! I agree, she's fading beautifully. This cutting is much more colorful than the mother I took her from. I think it's the new lighting helping her reach her potential! Happy growing!
