Strain
Purple Queen
Growing it
Easy
Resistance
Strong
A stunning girl throughout. She produces huge cola's with a super berry flavour and aroma. My pheno wasn't the most purple, but still has purples within her buds and could probably be encouraged more from cooler temps. She had an average stretch and was easy to please. It's hard see her colours from how hairy she is with orange pistils, but she's still full of flavour and a great smoke. If you're a fan of berry/fruity flavours then this girl cannot be missed, she's one of, if not the best tasting berry strain I've grown in the Den. She's not the most effective for my back pain, but still does a good job and is an enjoyable smoke all day and night.

Nutrients
Been using the GHE base nutrient line for a long time. It works for me and I like the fact that this line is a 3 part, meaning I can feed at the ratios I wish to feed throughout a cycle and can control what is being fed exactly. Everything is always super frosty and perfectly healthy so I can only put it down to the environment and what was being put in the coco!
Never had any issues using Growth Technology Liquid Slilicon. The plants are perfectly bendable in veg and strong in structure.
Because this is the first time running this strain I can't say exactly, but there's no denying that the little microbes do their part when used in an already healthy grow. I'd always recommend it to anyone who is curious and hasn't tried it for themselves.
Bud explosion is a good PK booster, although it's quite hard to mix and completely dissolve, it definitely increases bud sites, size and overall yield. I need to test the sweet candy a bit more before coming to a solid conclusion, but it does seem to increase aroma and taste a bit.
Thank you to RQS for creating and sending me this girl. She's fat, full of flavour and a pleasure to grow! Highly recommended even for a beginner. Thanks to all that follow, like and comment. Without you guys it'd be pretty boring so I appreciate all of your input!
She was harvested on Day 58 and left to dry for at least a week. I then gave her a dry trim and thrown the buds in a jar for curing. I put a couple of boveda 62% humidity packs in there too, to keep the moisture level correct. I'll soon be switching to Integra boost packs as they seem to get a better review and are purposely made for cannabis.
Because I have 4 seperate plants/strains in one tent, under one light, I've had to calculate these by dividing the conditions by 4 (4 plants in total sharing same conditions). This is the fairest and only way to work it out on average as a full tent.
Happy growing! πΊ

Stunning nugs.. just gorgeous. I wasn't aware of the cutting down before the lights turn on..makes sense. I've put mine in dark for 1-2 days before trim.

All of what I do tho, ends up in the dark, so it sounds like the same concept.. right Foxy?

TheFoxFarmercommented6 years ago
@Lady_NugWitch, correct mate ππ the reason behind it is because light degrades the trichomes, so keeping it in the dark keeps it fresher, tastier and gives a longer shelf life πβοΈπΊ
