It’s a cool trait. A lot of ppl grow different strains just to find the ones that show color! 🌱

Hi—- you may have a purple pheno type. Nothing you can do about that! The stem doesn’t look purple so it’s not a deficiency. Leaves will turn purple with temps are cold at night—- buds are genetic

Stunted growth?
Hey fellow growers, im coming into week 7 and she's starting to flower, but compared to others growing the same I feel she should be bigger or further along than she is. Temp is around 25° humidity 37-50, ph is 5.35. Using shogun npk. Am I doing something wrong?

Don’t wanna run outta space in my tent
How much time do I have roughly before I have to switch these to flower light schedule? The tent is 4x4x7. I may have to get some straps for the light to go up higher. My pants are all currently around 7 weeks, except for the gelato 33 and fresh air. Those are are 5 weeks. Thanks

~~*Autoflower stress = trichomes? TIA*~~
I hear stress/signs of winter can trigger more trichome production. Have people noticed - does this carry over into the rundernalis Autoflower? If so, what are ways to stress out autoflowers before harvest? I've let my plants get a dry once in flower, but curious what else to do.

Will there always be fresh bud growth on an auto-flower (max thc/no couch-lock goal)?
ready for harvest bc most of the pistils are mature? Clearly not yet because of new growth? The trichromes are looking like a mix of clear and cloudy, little to no amber yet. I would like to know if there will always be fresh pastil/bud growth even when she’s ready for harvest?

runoff PPM elevated, how does this approach sound...
Watering till runoff now... runoff ppm was 2500+... Will be using very mild nutes to flush over 1 - 3 feeds... or until I am near my input, does this sound like an ok idea?

Flush duration in DWC
Okay, so here's the deal. A lot of people say that flushing should take a week or two. BUT flushing DWC could take only as little as 2 days. Is that true or does the medium really not matter at all? THX :)

Gradual light decline from 18/6 or instant 12/12 switch pros and cons
So I’m going to switch my plants from 18-6 to 12-12, was wondering if there’s a difference from gradually declining the light period or just making an instant switch in relations to growth of the plant in terms of it making a final stretch and final bud size? Thanks everyone

Doing something wrong?
As this is my first grow, I’m just curious if I’m doing something wrong. These are both the same strain but aren’t growing the same. Why do they look so different? The plant in the second pic didn’t have any LST, the other did. Am I screwing something up?
