Yep way too late lol.... They vegged for 14 weeks give or take. Here are a couple pics taken like 2 weeks before they started flowering. They were 3ft at that time.

I dont know how? These seeds came out of schwag bags. None had purple buds or anything close. But Im not complaining lol...



They are in my back yard.
Purple phenotypes are not very common but they can show up even if the mother or father was green

More nutes! Those leaves could definately be darker. If they yellow at the edges of the leaves, then back off.
See the amount of growth you had when you added nutrient! You should be feeding it every second or third day with a flowering solutin.

Nice plant! But it could be huge.

Good info. Guess I hit the budda jackpot lol....

I did one last tme with pellets. They are good for a month. By then I will be flushing. I will keep using the molasas till then end but thats it. I burned them before trying to stop the yellowing. Yellow leaves started to have dead spots and healthy leaves started to get buildup under the skin. I stopped all extra nutes and they are doing great, no more yellowing and no new buildup. I though 6 & 7 footers were huge lol..... Dont think my nerves could take them much bigger in my back yard. I wont be happy on harvest day. I'll be relieved to get these gals out of sight lol....

Its because you have them grow with the other plants look at the leaves they are in one or two places where the roots have run in to others thats what I think then agian I could be wrong!!!!!!

I think your somewhat right. Not roots running into each other. But too many plants in that small flowerbed. My only real problem was my lack on N in the soil. All the plants sucked it right out I guess. The fert I was using didnt have enough to keep up. I gave them a quickshot to boost it back up but went a little too far. Solved the problem but caused a short term buildup or lockout. I cant tell the diff. All is great now and only 3-4 weeks to go.

From what Ive been told the hairs will brown and the bud will be like any other. Kinda a bummer but Im happy I got pics of her. I'll prolly update with pics every week now. This has kinda become my unofficial grow journal. Bad news as of late. Temps are now in the low 40's at night and we have a mid 30's night comming this weekend. So Im pretty much on frost watch now. After the first frost I will pull them. Hope I get another week and a half at the least. Would I be ok to leave them out after a light frost? I would push it to 2 frosts. I know the gals are not done. Swelling is kicking in, hairs are browning, the trics are 75/25% cloudy/clear. Think I will get to 100% cloudy in the next week? Maybe some amber?
