Fo' Twenny Back with another update on our "Grandaddy Purple" from Blimburn Seeds! 8/24: I did some selective defoliation to help increase light penetration. Next watering will be a flush with 2 tsp/gal of Fox Farm's flush agent SledgeHammer. A flush is recommended after week 3 in the Fox Farm Feeding chart. I figure the recommended flush will do some good considering I have a lot of coco in the mix and there are small amounts of salt fertilizer in my schedule. She is really starting to do some stretching and she has an abundance of growing shoots. She has a few leaves that look textured or "crinkled". I tried doing some searches and not sure if this is due to a virus or some other factor. She is center in the tent and the only plant being grown in a fabric pot. She has also been vegging longer than any of the other plants in the garden. She was a survivor from previous run when I almost killed all my plants (did kill one) trying to kill so spider mites. This is the only plant presenting these abnormalities. I gave a lot of detail about the abnormal leaves because I am hoping someone may be able to help me troubleshoot. 8/28: Flushed the medium with tap H2O run through 2 KDF filters with 2 tsp/gal of Fox Farm Sledgehammer flushing agent and pH adjusted to 6.2. I started by giving 5 gallons. After checking the PPM of the runoff I ended up adding 5 more gallons mixed to same specifications. 10 gallons total was shared by 3 large flowering photoperiod cultivars and 1 smaller autoflower. She probably ended up with about 3 gallons give or take. I didn't measure how much each plant received. I just kept flushing each and checking runoff until it was under 1600 ppm. Thanks for checking out my diary. If you liked this diary, check out my other diaries and give me a follow! Until next time... Peace โ˜ฎ๏ธ, Love ๐Ÿ’š, And Frosty Nugs โ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฒ! -Fo' Twenny

amazongrowcommented4 years ago
@FoTwenny, yes I have some. I think you can get then bigger with more yield. I was wondering...
FoTwenny
FoTwennycommented4 years ago
@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!

@blendmedmedman, Enjoyed this one a lot last run! In my opinion, Grandaddy Gorilla seems to be a more fitting name.

One of my favs strains ๐Ÿฆ„ 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! ๐Ÿ˜‹ Im following this one ๐Ÿ˜‰
FoTwenny
FoTwennycommented4 years ago
@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.

Another perfect looking plant!

@MrJones, Thank you!!! I hope she is more GDPish than the last time I ran her.

That's a great looking plant, so you took this from a clone? Great training, when you flip this to flower it will be a monster bush!
FoTwenny
FoTwennycommented4 years ago
@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.

So detailed. Blimburn is so affordable i hope the smoke is actually potent though
FoTwenny
FoTwennycommented4 years ago
@GYOweed, Yes, sorry for the ambiguity there, it is a cutting from a seed I sowed myself from a pack of Blimburn's GDP!
GYOweed
GYOweedcommented4 years ago
@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!
FoTwenny
FoTwennycommented4 years ago
@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!
