Week 11 for Sour Dragons
These are some stunning looking plants for sure. I’m not sure if this is what GW was expecting when he created this one, but the result of the cross is spectacular colour in the final weeks. I have 2 plants with the same smell, but differences in appearance. One is skinny, but taller and has spaces between buds. Straight up and down with no branches. It has a lovely deep purple coming through on the peripherals which slowly creeps across the leaves and fills them up from the outside in. The other is shorter but much fatter and no spaces, pretty much one big bud. It has less deep purple coming in, but the entire bud has turned a burgundy, magenta type colour. The diesel smell is prominent. Now 11 weeks on I thought it might be ready, but I can’t find any amber trichs yet, only all fully cloudy. I will wait another few days to see if they amber, but this will be the last week for sure. For looks, smell and appeal this is a great strain. I think the late season grow has brought out the best colours for sure. GW should be proud of their work with this one. This week I got a new phone and have enjoyed toying around with filters, to bring out the best colour. I got some great snaps of the buds, I just need to work out how to produce the best images, as some pictures come out tall and thin when uploaded, especially screenshots. See you again next week for the final update before harvest 🍻
@Shooey, ive been told that plants on the smaller side arent always a bad thing
As you know with my last grow mine were also a tad smaller.
They are easier to look after and spot signs of trouble and may in certain cases taste better. As with many things in nature.
They look great though
@Riveting, cheers mate! These have been a real surprise packet. It's about the best I've done with auto outdoor. I notice you do well with them in SA as does epokwan too. Looks like I will give these another try for sure 🙂
@Med_in_Tropic, cheers med. This is the best i have done with autos to date, although wolf got his to branch out a bit more than mine. He does top his autos, and it seems they may just do a bit better!!
@Riveting, hi mate. These are testers that a mate bred. I wanted to see how they went just thrown out with mo fussing over it. It shares the pot with a mulberry plant. Test has shown this has way under performed compared to the others in optimum conditions. So yeah, just for future learnings 👍🏽👍🏼
@Grey_Wolf, yes mate, all of a sudden too! The fatter one is now getting almost a magenta colour which I’m guessing might be from the ruby dragon. The smell is unbelievable mate, I’m lovin these dragons. Super quick too. I’ve got a few left for next year too 👍👍🍻
@Ned_Grows, thanks bro. Yeah I do get mites here and there. They are selective though, preffering some strains above others. The hose gets most of em but it did do some damage to the leaves. Might have to back the pressure off next time! Cheers mate
@Ner0z, thanks mate! It is a breeding project of another GD mate, who supplied the seeds. Its good to be able to test and try some different things with them. All the best with "the boys" matey😆
