Fuck!!! I was gonna run purple traiwreck ths year too, but I thought they might need the cold to purple up. That picture just made up my mind. Next order I will be copping some RP Purple Trainwreck seeds. Your bud are looking fire bro. I think my plants are just finishing up the stretch. They're really stacking now. I hit them with bloom teas back to back. They should come out half as decent as yours lol.

I like the RP, but it's smaller than my HSO Purple Trainwreck
I'll make sure to do a side by side in my thread about them. It's one of my favorite strains so I figured I would grow a few of each to see which I liked better, RP or HSO...

Yes, please do a side by side. I am going to start collecting strains this fall for next year. I might just do a few bigguns in each garden next year. So many plants is just too much damn work lol. Too much transplanting and watering.

Prob a silly question I could find on the newbie forums but im a lazy shit to go looking ...is the idea of the wire cages around the plants for support or to stop animals etc ....looking good veg and meds : )

Both. I bend and pull the branches through as they get long enough. This opens the plant up to more light and promotes more vertical growth along the branch. So the plant is supported for weight in many places and supported from the wind all the way around. Also keeps the deer from eating them when they are young.

Exactly what I wanted to hear thanks....I tie my plants down but last year as I work away I came back to exceptional growth and the string had cut into the main stem strangling it almost so the wire cage will be a lot better.....thanks guys

I use garden wire ties that have a cushion around th, and I use stretchy plant tape . They stretch with the plant as it grows. Have yet to see one cut into the plant. The cushiond wire works good as well if you are able to adjust it so that it doesnt strangle the stalks.

I got mine for 1 dollar at the dollar store. Like 50 feet of it. Maybe 100 idk. Lol bought a bunch in 2012 and still have it. I also have garden twine. But that slices into the stalks with friction from wind. I cant wait till my pepper plants start fruiting. I have tomatoes, squash, cucumbers and cannabis all fruiting. But I want my damn peppers!! Lol they should start fruiting around Aug. They will be rather large. Good for cover crop. I amd growing lots of vining plants like squash, cantaloupe and watermelon as live mulch. Will help keep the roots cooler and stay moist longer.
