Purple Lemonade – small pot, big emotionsThis Purple Lemonade in a 5-L pot completely surprised me. The first 50 days only under 75 W – small, compact, almost shy. Then the boost to 180 W… and suddenly it explodes in color and scent. The smell? Lemon, blueberry, bubblegum – sweet, loud, sticky, totally Purple-style. The buds are small but ultra-dense and fat with resin. Yield: 151 g wet – absolutely strong for the conditions.

Mega delicious, mega beautiful, perfect effect for in between! Hold 42!!!

Cut her maybe a week sooner than I intended to but my other ladies getting too big for her to stay in w them. Smelling good and looking good. Surprised I got more than 8g off her! Now to cure

Beautiful plant! Amazing lemonade smell Harvested them on 8.5 weeks of flower Super dense, aromatic and sticky buds! Currently drying at 19C 60% humidity- aiming got 7-14 drying days Much love to You

I expected it to be purple, but this phenotype came out super light green, positive result!

Just for fun

It stretched a lot vertically after flowering started, so I struggled with the light distance inside the tent. Other than that, it grew vigorously without any major issues.

Chopped 04/09/26. Purple Lemonade definitely surprised me in many ways. She unexpectedly showed very strong sativa traits after a very short and stocky indica veg period. She was the only plant in the grow to suffer major issues (pH dropped to 5 in runoff a few weeks ago) which was a little frustrating. I was going to give a lower rating, but the more I look back on it, the more I realize that if I was more consistent in how I am monitoring my plants, her issues could have been entirely prevented. Really my biggest issue is just her growth pattern and overall structure. LST in veg was virtually impossible, then when she started her stretch she was growing an inch per day! Very difficult to manage, and I agree with other opinions that she is nitrogen sensitive. Be very careful to not overdo it on nutes and she will reward you for the work. Her aroma is nowhere near as powerful as LCCs, but now that they are apart I am finally able to pick up some of her nuiance. Very similar in scent to LCC, but she has retained more of the sweet side of the aroma since the chop. I'll be very curious to compare the smoke between the 2. Anyways, thanks for checking this out, I'll have everything uploaded when it's ready in the next week or 2. Happy growing 04/15/26 - got her all chopped, trimmed and dried. Her total smokeable bud weight came out to 32g. While I'm happy overall, it's a shame because she easily could have yielded 2+ ounces. I threw close to half of her in the trim because the smaller buds were loose, airy, and full of leaves. Wouldn't have been worth the 6 hours of trimming for a few more subpar buds. The rest of her is alright, still nowhere near as dense as I would like, but that's likely my fault and not the genetics of the strain. Will update again one last time in a week with the smoke report. 04/22/26 - Smoke report: A lil disappointed with her as well. She is definitely the weakest of the 3 as far as THC goes. Her flavor isn't too different from LCC, definitely less sour and pungent. It's definitely more sweet than her sister. There's also some weird herbal aftertaste that I'm getting. It might be something I did wrong with the dry/cure, but I'm not sure. It doesn't blend well with her other aromas/flavors, so I'm not a huge fan. I smoked 2 bowls and it's difficult to say for sure how the effect feels. I just feel weakly buzzed. I have a pretty high tolerance, but that aside it's kind of a letdown to not feel much after 2 bowls. I could probably go drive around and run errands in 30-45 minutes. After giving it another 30 minutes to set in, I will admit I was super chatty out of nowhere. Definitely a good socializing strain. All things considered, I will give her more attempts and try to maintain her better. Hoping for better results from her unsprouted sisters. This is likely the final update to this diary! It was an absolute pleasure growing these 3 lovely ladies and even though it may sound like I'm harshly critiquing them, they still gave me more than I was expecting! I was hoping for 3-4 ounces dry from the 3 of them, and I got 4.5 ounces in total! Even more than what I originally wanted! Thanks again to anyone following along! I will be on a short hiatus from indoor growing for a little while, but will hit the ground hard and fast come mid-June. Even better things are yet to come. See you next time

Right of the bat she has a strong sweet and sour smell. Even without curing, both her smell and taste are incredible. Every inhale from a joint, you get this taste of lemonade. The effects are also great: a mindful high that is peaceful, calm and functional. Great for daytime use with basically any activity, as there is 0 anxiety from this strain for me. It's an unexpectedly pleasant weed, both in smell/taste and effect. Especially the latter very positively surprised me, I absolutely love this herb.

Total 67 days from seed to harvest. I aimed for 60% amber.

As always with FastBuds genetics: Overall a pure pleasure to grow & smoke. She didn't immediately forgave me some early mistakes, but with a bit of love she came back around quickly. In the end she rewarded me with a harvest of sweet purple green. After drying for 10 days and curing for 7-8 weeks the taste is fruity with some fresh and lemony notes. The effects are relaxing and motivating. Probably gonna grow her again sometimes!

Purple lemonade got pulled at 90 days. Definitely lost about 30% on yeild with light stress early on for this cycle. Smell is amazing with a lemon incense smell.

Great strain! It really picked up at the end and there were some seriously fat buds. Unfortunately, one plant foxtailed, but that happens and my conditions aren't ideal either. I noticed that it prefers to have too little nutrients rather than too much. Even at an EC of 1.1, it showed signs of over-fertilization during the main flowering stage.
