been looking back and my plant looks so much like purple thai, however, i didnt get to see its true potential because i chopped at week8, i did notice that the top calyx on each bud was turning purple.

but my tent was always around 80-90. at night it would only drop to around 65.
if i were to drop it even lower at night would this help the purple come out? any ideas how to go about this, ill give it a shot on my current grow. everything about this strain shouts "keep it" just wish i could grow it to its full potential.

when its near ready put a few ice cubes on top of your medium, that will make any plant with purp in it show colours. ive seen some turn black,.

drowning???

Pre-98 Bubba, grown outside, day temps around 65-80, night temps mid 50's. Drowned at the end per riddleme's technique

genuity · Apr 26, 2011

hmmm,so overwater at the end of the grow pertty much.

genuity · Apr 26, 2011

is that your first drowning bill?

indecline · Apr 26, 2011

whats the advantage of this again?
i was always under the impression i should be letting it dry right out before harvest?

thats what i did with my og18 grow,and that was some of the best tasteing smoke.
i even think it took a few days off of drying time.

billcollector99 · Apr 26, 2011

Yeah that was my first drowning, however like I said, I personally know a grower that drowns all his plants, and they come out amazing.

Faster drying times is not really a good thing...

well the plants that i chop as the soil is still wet,may take 7-10 day to dry,
as the plants that get no water for the last week,dry in 5-7 days,with no ill effects.

gotcha

I should have known better than assume that you didnt mean you were drying in like 2-3 days.

TBH drowning the plants doesnt really slow down drying time that much, and I have noticed increased resin production after being drowned.

heres the link. i was too but for the only reason its dry faster. i did think the water cure was nice and fast but you lose volume in the process. now every one likes a weed thats stronger by volume but you want the same amount not a sack 2/3 full.

Yeah I tried the water curing too, not my cup of tea, the buds were extremely discolored, and didnt taste very good.

Don Gin and Ton · Apr 26, 2011

ive always found dehumidifier in the op the last week swells things and keeps on top of mold. to a degree....

never tried the 72 hours dark, being perpetual but i can try in 7 n a bit weeks

i might have to try that drowning thing out,i like to let a bag of fruit,rot in my flower room the last 1-2 weeks,gets that Ethylene going.

My first smoke report!

Blue cheese; Smokes softer- smooth kinda of earthy taste like some weeds, smells not as strong as the cheese ,puts you down for a while -couchlock bud
Cheese: Nice cheese high ,not to strong and lasts for a while not as long as the blue cheese though. More of a day bud but it stinks out the place.
Ak47(Fake) - Instant head high, reminds me of so the first cheese i smoked that was to strong ,it smell like some strong cheese but with a sweetie smell- If you want to zone out -spaceship high

Don if you look back on this thread I have pics of my recent drowning project Hero OG Kush. Its post #19488, I am a big time cougher so I try to find ways of having a smoother smoke. With my Hero I flushed it with Molasses prior to the drowning process.

I chopped my Hero plant fellas, I will post pics soon.....
Any Hockey fans on here, I am watching the Van vs Chic Game 7 great game!!!!

Peace
