no i just took those pics.. but her siblings that i posted b4 all look alike.. so how does twisted taste?
mine still needs some curing but is already getting her sweet fruty taste..
I just meant the purple... but mine is not that purple? yours is on the leaves of the buds too....mine more inside the bud....but does have a light purple hue...just about to test it!!!

mine normally get way darker leaf and bud.. but remember i had 2 cut @ 6 weeks instead of 7-8.. my guess is your light, cause i notised that when i flower this same strain under a 600 it doesnt get as dark as when under the 1000w

hhhmmmm....so you think that less intense light may have an effect of the color of buds and leaves in the purple strains?

could also lowering temp during dark cycle help it too change as well?

lowering temps is the way the purple strains change color i would like to find a purp u dont have to tweak to do this

well lower temps totally help as well, but this cycle my temps didnt get below 82 in my room and still turned.. so there are some variables.. i am convinced that light is a factor as well..

have you heard of any purps you dont have to manipulate to get the color

haha yea mine.. i have been working with this strain for 2 years, winter and summer grows.. and with this one what i found is @ week 6 they start to turn but by week 8 the entire plant will turn bright purple in optimum climate.. when temps get low in winter the purple gets way darker and not as appealing in my oppinion

so you want it to go purple but not too dark purple.....i think with the least stress will help too!! like a constant high and low temp/humidity during day/night cycle....not a over fluctuating one! just a guess...lol

i guess i could just ask greennerd420 im sure he would say spray paint them purple
but dont forget to piss on your 400w ballast

seems like it ? but i never grew with 150w.. them buds are just chunky tho so i would be shocked if it wasnt 2
Well i have been saving a little money.... so was thinking of getting a 400hps? what do you think....or should i continue to try and get more from less....lol

Im attempting to get as much as possible with what i have but i keep thinking of a 400 for some reason...my buds are not the biggest but you are right the buds are dense...very hard so if i was to get a 400 would they get bigger??? I mean i'll take quality over quantity anyday...but i like what im doing so far!
