Sorry for all the question my man, but with all honestly , you seem like the dude that has alot of answers!!!! Lolol
Have u ran any of the exotic genetix red pop line. I've had some experience with they strawberry syrup which is a grease monkey x rep pop. And from what I remember it had a almost fake cherry/strawberry candy flavor. Knowing that a plant can produce those flavors is wild as hell. If I had not experienced that type of flavor I would of just assumed that when u said blue candy like popsicle it would of been a bland berry type of strain. But now i know flavor can actually be that wild and crazy tasting, which made me want to pick the cool blue up for myself. But back to the question about have u tried any exotic genetix?? The red pop line is pretty freaking outta this world.

Anyone running Acia Gelato Bx by Tiki? I have a pack I traded 2 half packs of Compounds Redbullz and Coka for. I opened the pack and am gonna pop all 10 to hunt and make some F2's and crosses. Can't find them anywhere online, any info about them at all. Tiki blocked me when I asked him about them. Total asshole.

All the photos tiki post on his ig look super fire with vibrant colors . What do I have to do to make mine do the same ? Do you think he hunt every strain till he finds something crazy colorful or is it something he's feeding ? Maybe lights and cold temps any ideas ?

That photo could be edited a little to make it more vibrant or add contrast but in general getting more purple is pretty easy for the strains that have it in the genetics. Lower the temps for a couple hours during the last 2-3 weeks of flowering while the lights are off. They should be mid to low 60s, closer to 60 is better. Also stop feeding base nutrients the last 2 weeks or so. I use NFTG so I'm not using salt nutrients and I don't flush but I still don't use any NPK nutrients the last two weeks or so and the plants start turning lots of colors.

I've done just the temps and Ive done just the "flush" before and the plants are always more colorful when I do both of them together. Some plants just won't turn purple however.

If I remember what I read correctly lower temps inhibit phosphorous uptake in plants. This is part of the reason most plants leaves turn lots of colors during the fall before winter fully comes in. You are trying somewhat to mimic that process.

Ya don't believe that bullshit. Look at seed junky and j breezy. The end buds look a lot alike and you can see the more natural purple colors that you will actually see.

Here is g41 x sherb bx (not my photo)

In fairness I have ran a pack of Tiki Madman Gelato 41 bx and they do come out looking almost exactly like Tiki's picture and not the one you posted of seed junkys.

Tiki's picture looks like the contrast was adjusted though and/or maybe the picture was taken with the plant pretty close to a light. Having ran the strain myself with 9 females that all looked almost exactly like Tiki's pic I'm sure he didn't do too much editing beyond contrast/lighting levels.

I have one pheno going right now that's about 3 weeks into flower. If I can remember in a couple weeks I'll try and take a pic to post.

Show me one unedited picture that looks like that. Look at the "reposted" pics and you can see awesome bud but not that technicolor bullshit. Do some plants throw some unbelievable colors? Sure, but THAT particular photo has been fucked with.

And hell maybe your right, maybe only contrast had been changed or whatever but he's done this with other shots too. It's camera tricks.. Not genetics or low temps or organic growing

Photos like Tiki's I assume are taken like this with a bright light shining on it since they were obviously not just a garden shot like the pic you posted above. A bright light at the right angle can make a photo look like the contrast has been messed with. Never can fully tell now days really though.

I suppose. I haven't ate McDonald's in a long time but I knew their advertisement was bullshit and the actual food I got would never look like that. It could have been the camera tricks or the fact the "ketchup" was actually paint. I digress, but tikis gear has been putting out heat but the buds are good enough without the need for the bullshit making consumers think that the buds they grow can actually come out looking like they were painted by a first grader in 1991
