Changing colors of the flower
NoobMaster69started grow question 3 years ago
Does adding and reducing PH change colors of the bud? When would I start manipulating the PH? I’ve read week 6 is when I should start reducing the PH to achieve reds yellows and oranges…

Total BS as far as cannabis is concerned, so is adding ice.
Colour change is usually a genetic thing, generally induced by having night temps 10-15 degrees Celsius lower than the day time temps, although there are a number of purple strains, mostly Pakistani Indica in descent.
Cheers, Organoman.

Reducing air temperature to 65F at night will bring color out.
Putting ice on the top of soil/coco for the last week will bring color out.
Adding ice directly to the DWC/ HYDROPONICS reservoir will bring color out.
If you have a strain WITH Genetics that have coloring. Some strains will only give you a normal, green buds, yellow leaves , and red hairs.

While I’ve heard that PH of the soil can change the color of certain types of flowers- say hydrangeas- I’ve never heard of that being true with cannabis. The colors tend to be strain and phenotype specific. And lower temperature at lights off can sometimes deepen the colors achieved during the plants fade.
( I kinda wish it was true- It would make for some killer photos ) 🌱

Cold weather induces a fade or color change.

Are these nanners developing?Can anyone identify if this is the early stages of nanners? The bright, lush green growth at middle top of picture is what concerns me in particular. I will likely chop tomorrow or the day after - but want to develop an eye for identifying nanners ASAP.

Trichomes don’t matureI’m flushing slowly, has been almost two week now. Just water with PH between 6.5 and 6.8. The plant seems ready, pistils are brown for 70%, yellow leaves are dropping off, but I don’t get why trichomes are still transparent, they aged slowly compared to the rest. Is it normal?

Different Phenotypes?2 plants from the same seed type purchased together. They look really different. I thought the one with the swollen calyxes was hermed, but research said otherwise. But one has trichomes and decent smell while the other has faint smell and no trichomes to speak of. Thoughts?

Colas to close to each other?I am a little bit worried about the colas growing quite close to each other, and quite dense (the side branches are basically all start to grow into the main bud of the cola). Should we do something to get a bit more space and ventilation inbetween? (more pics and video in diary)

These have been grown in 91 degree heat for their entire time growing. I can't change that the heat killed off some trichomes. But what is your opinion on the doneness of the trichomes that are there? If the pics are not clear enough I can use my real camera versus my phone. THX

Main versus secondary maturingThis secondary lower buds seem to be maturing faster than the main colas. The pistils are turning dark faster on the lower than the upper. Not by much, but it's noticeable. Maybe a week or so? BUT, should I take the secondary buds first and leave the main colas to mature more?
