Not much to say atm. I was worried as the other 2 seeds i potted were shooting within a day, this one made me wait 6 days before rearing her beautiful head. I am very glad 😇 Day 8 and she's a slow developer ATM. She had 100ml of some root juice and bio heaven mixed 1ml of each to 1000ml of water @6.2. Day 10. She is slowly but surely growwing. Pretty girl. Day 11. New light arrived. Hope it is not too much of a change Day 13 and moved all the girls to 12L airpots. She was a little small but i saw her roots had reached the bottom of her seeding pot so now she can stretch out. had a litlle splash of the above mix.

Start of week 3.slowly does it. She's a bit shy I think.😅 Day 23 Had some issues that I think are resolved. New light and much much much more lumens then I am used to. Changed height of light to 90cm and dimmer @75%. Day 25. She plods along slow and steady.. She's coming along though..👍

Week 5 started like week 4 ended. Putting weight on stretching out. She's a good girl. She started to get quite bushy and light was not getting through her massive fan leaves. I decided to, very gently, do some LST and tie her back a bit. Light is getting to those lovely flower sites. I noticed she does not respond well to the water schedule she is on. I have reduced the ammount by 100ml and will watch her. Also did laet feed with much colder water as a base. 5c colder. Have I mentioned I love this girl...🤪♥️ Stay safe and happy growing.

Wekk 6 flower time. She is a very strange plant, maybe her genetics are a little wonky or i have messed up her early stages. She has a very dense center bud site and her growth on one side is noticably different. Im not bothered it is just an observation as she appears to be in good health none the less. Took some of the bigger leaf off and a bit more LST to et the light shining through. She will start to get some added top max and bloom to her feeds this week. An unfortunate event has occurred. Thanks to @OimRausch for spotting how dark green she is. I've only gone and given the poor girl to much N. She has leaf curl (talon) on the tips and the green is so dark and the slow growth.. So obvious now I know what I'm looking for. Well I think she will be okay I have removed all N/grow from her feeding and she already looks better with some nice flowers coming out. Lesson learned and logged so it wont happen again.. I hope Fed some Alg-a-mic to help recover from the nitrogen overfeed. She looks to have responded well. Seeing some purple flower sites appearing and leaf colour looks better. Day 40 and she is on the mend. thank god! Nice flowers pushing and the purple is coming through. I'm a hapy boy.. Oh and on a side note.. Alg-a-mic..!what a revelation. It is now on my permanent items list.. 5* And thanks again to @OimRausch for saving this lady..😍 Happy growing and keep well.

Not much to say. Fish mix added to feed to put some N back from not diet. She's had a bit of LST in the last few days to open her bud sites to the light. Some really quite nice purples forming on her leaves and their veins. The bud has a really cool purple shade to it. Still love this girl. Stay safe. Happy growing.👍

Hello folks. I think she is doing okay. Putting weight on and getting more purple each day. Not much to report. Had some tiny copper spots develop middle of last week but they did not develop further. I'm wondering if the nitrogen overfeed in week 5 caused it.. Anyway I'm keeping an eye on it. Got a basic LUX meter and she is getting 52,000 units of whatever LUX is.. RQS website says ideal for flowering is 45,000-65,000. So im in the ball park. Thanks for looking Stay safe😷 Happy grows to all🌿🌱

Week 9 already! Nothing to say this about her this week apart from how f##king beautiful her flowers are!🤩 I really messed up her early life with to much N and now she is stunted and stubby but there is just bud all over her. It's growing in ways I've never seen. Really dense groupings of bud that is thick in crystals and purple and is just delicious looking. The smell from her is how I imagine the gods would smell after a shower! Just amazed by floral perfume with a sweet after note maybe citrus.🤔 It's still developing so hard to pin point..🤣. I can't wait to try her. I think I need to have another crack at a Narco Purps.. I let her down on this grow but we grow together..👊👍 Thanks for looking and I hope you and your loved ones keep safe😷😷😷 Happy grows all🌱🌿🌱

I think this is her final week. I can't wait as the smell from her has been teasing me for the last month. She is no longer growing at all apart from some smaller foxtails popping up. Don't know if it's genetics or heat related but the widow is showing similar signs so maybe heat related. She's being given just water at 6.5 and I'm checking her very cloudy trichomes daily waiting for the amber ratio to be just so. I don't want to much amber on this as I feel it will be a nice heady stoned that I can still do stuff. She is a lot smaller then I hoped to but I have not been able to find a reference as no one here has harvested one of these before.. I will get another Narco Purps and do her proud next year. Thanks for looking. Stay safe😷 Grow well.👍🌱🌿🌱

131g of wet is a bit of a let down but i knew it would be small as i messed her up in the early stages. Way to much nitrogen stunted her and she was just not so happy through veg. I shall return with an update to her taste and smell once she has dried and cured. 👍 Update. She was dried for 6 days and is now curing in a mason jar. I am gutted at only getting 36g dry. Admittedly there were 6 plants under the 300w sp3000. I have a rough calculation in my head and in order to return on the cost involved I need double what she gave.. I shall come back on the next one stronger. Watch this space next year. The narco will grow again.
