Yea but technology and legalization are 2 different things lol. When they can produce a led or plasma bulb that can rival the light intensity of a hid and the PRICE then i will convert but i dont see that happen for a few more years yet. Those led are too expensive right now and over the next few years they are gonna become better and more affordable. Led or plasma is the future
My personal opinion is I just like the purple bud because it has major bag appeal. People see it and go crazy for it. Ive smoked some pretty good purps and I can name alot of better weed I have smoked than purpsok i wanna break down this whole purple thing,and get everyones thoughts on both sides of this!...
lets stick with a non purple strain, but any other... when night temps drop around 60-65degrees "ive never gone lower" for the last couple weeks of flowering,plants dramaticly change colors!,mostly purple/pink,sometimes a blueish color...
lets say we were growing 2 plants...plant 1 and plant 2,each in there own closet or grow room w.e.,we'll call the strain greentea..lol "both plants the same strain"
ok both plants are 6 weeks into flowering.. plant 1 we drop the night temps down to 64 degrees ,and plant 2 remains at a normal night temp of 70-75...
by week 7 we notice purple/pinkish colors on the leaves on plant 1 and some of the bud starting to get a purple tint to it..... plant 2 is still looking the same "healthy green"...
week 8 we have purple all over the leaves and a real dark tint of purple on the buds on plant 1...plant 2 is still just a healthy green plant, with some nice green frosty nuggs!..
We harvest,dry,cure, all that good stuff!
now heres where i want ur opinions! ....
Does Plant 1 taste and smoke different than plant 2 just cause its purple?!?!? in my exp. NO it does not!...but i would like to hear what u guys gutta say!
no it doesn't make it taste better cuz its not naturally purple, alot of purple strains actually grow purple while not receiving colder temps. the color is in their genes. i dont really like to smoke buds that were made purp by the coldok i wanna break down this whole purple thing,and get everyones thoughts on both sides of this!...

no clue it just came up in my lst thread in the links below the guy who posted it is the one who has done it i just thought it was really cool and mabye usefull
Like mcpurp said this is a different subject. All my grows have night temps in the 50's, so it's always been that I've changed my plant's color with temps. Never had a true purple strain (until now that is). Anyhow, I don't think there is any taste difference like you said of changing the colors with cold. However that's not the purple we are talking about.now heres where i want ur opinions! ....

well i got some weed that was made purp by getting the plant cold and then i smoked the same bud from the same strain and evrything except this one was not froze to produce purp buds. the weed that was made purp didnt taste very good at all, it didnt have near as a powerfull high as the other, and it seemed to be more fluffy and break apart real easy. now these were the same strains, same grower, same everything except the cold. mabye the grower just let it get to cold i dont know but all my experiences with forced purp buds was not all that great. but real purp strains are the shit, not the best , but they are the shiti agree with the both of you!...the purple is def. an eye candy out here too!!! ppl see purple weed and think its the best shit ever..yah its bomb,but not the best ive toked!
mcpurple- why dont u liek to smoke buds that were forced to change colors?!?

What do you fellows think about the line up?
Also what kind of yield do you think I could pull of with this one.
Sneak my other update in here too!
Chem D, Grape Romulan, Grapefruit Haze. Bloom Day 13
GFH has very low stretch. Lets see how it turns out, it has great chances of being a keeper.
G Rom and Chem D both stretch a hefty bit, but as far as vegging goes I like G Rom more than Chem D, CD more lanky.
