Yea they ran daytime in the 50's and over night low 40's in a backyard greenhouse I built.
Those were clones I got from a local club. Started flowering at about 14in and got a little over a zip a plant.

I wanted to share a pic of a t5 grow I had that finished in December awesome colors but couldn't find the pic.

Here it is, it didn't finish in December, that's why I couldn't find it but check out the colors I had with this T5 grow.

Cut from journal:

OK, Todays the day.

I have to admit, I have new respect for floro grows.
If I didnt grow it myself I would not have believed the plants could have done this under just floros.

Couple last shots:











The grow is in my cabinet journal, link below if ya wanna check it out.

If you meant what I just posted then that was trainwreck, one clone had more purple phenotype.
Heres a better shot of the comparison, purps in the center, (like i have to say that)

Sorry have no pix yet...But will get some next GDP grow. Thanks to all that shared theirs.
Purples r definitly a fun strain to watch grow...I've got Grand Daddy Purple Mother plants that rock. The pheno type was given to me a few years ago & to my surpise it's awesome. My friend grow it and the club couldn't get enough of it. Got purple? Peace & happy growing!

Hi,
Here some pics of some outdoor in BC, but not along the coast line. I did this near the central interior. This is kinda the point the pushing point for the outdoor-you do not want to go more north! lol. Anyway, the cross is BC Big Bud x Ruderalis. The close up of the bud was taken one week before harvest. Harvest was Sept 8th. Hunting season opened up on Sept 7th. I would post more but look on my Grow Journal-I short. Dont have to scroll pages. Might have to click read more to view photos.
Thanks for the review.

Tora Bora 2010

Plants finished at 30-50F

There is no reason to use disgusting additives like dyes and kool aids or other worthless products to try to grow colored flowers. No one wants to smoke these additives in their flowers, especially medical users.

The color change is either caused by lower temperatures locking out the phosphorous, or by genetic traits in the plant. Flowers fertilized with nitrogen right up to harvest will not turn purple.

Another factor in the color changes at lower temperatures is the conversion of the pigments in the leaves to anthocyanin, just like the trees change colors in fall.
