Blue Ice OG - LowTemps = Color Change
Trainstarted grow question 4 years ago
I am currently growing Blue Ice OG from seedsman.
Seedsman advertises that this strain can develop shades of dark blue and purple colors if it is exposed to nights below 12°C(54°F).
My question is, when during the grow cycle would you do this?

Let temps drop near end of flower so as not to impact yield much. You shouldn't need to drop into 50s. low to mid 60F will likely have the effect too.
It doesn't take much time. trial and error needed, but i bet you see a color change after 1-2 nights.. at least hints. do it as long as you feel necessary. This likely impacts photosynthesise... it's not a wise thing to do, imho. cold nights are not optimal for plant biology, which is tied to why colors change.. .again, not optimal to cause this to happen.
So, i'd start later in flower... and rest assured it won't take more than a week or two to get a good autumn look going.

Most strains will exhibit blue/purple tones if exposed to cold nights for a period of time.
If controlled and to avoid stunting, you may want to begin in week 4/5 of flowering.
If the strain naturally develops these tones as part of their genetic makeup, there is little that needs to be changed for the change to occur.

By the timing In the wild I mean that it would naturally get the coldest at night during the Last few weeks of flowering, hence this is most likely when you should drop down the night time temps to push her colours out. Theoretically....

Then it's a question of where does this plant hail from. I'm from Missouri a zone 6 grow area. Our temps normally hit that low at night around December.

I believe you would do this when it would naturally occur in the wild, late into flowering.

Is this the beginning of flowering?Today I spotted some white hair at the top of my auto orange bud… Ist this the beginning of flowering? Just after 18 days after germination? I had hoped that the plant grows bigger for at least another 1-2 weeks..
Did I trigger flowering with LST and removing 3 leaves / nodes?

Foxtail Ready For HarvestHello. This plant of mine became foxtail. As the harvest time nears its end, blooms have begun to bloom again on their hills. Now the first flowers at the bottom are ready for harvest. What should I do? Should I harvest immediately or wait for the new flowers to mature?

Tops of the Flowers began to darken, today is a good temperature 26-27 and humidity 40-50%, solution as instructionsI watered it last night. in the morning everything was fine, after 8 hours of day I saw a problem, on near Lemon AK something similar but smaller (the last 3 photos). Water them with one solution. I also did the spraying, but almost 24 hours passed. Light fibers are poplar fluff.
