I have GDP and Grape Ape clones both in flower now,the apes show some purple on the new leaves surrounding the flower but thats it. The temps here are cool 78 tops during the day low 50s at night,will I see purple soon or should I use that shit that supposedly turns them purple???:confused:

That is definitely enough of a temperature swing/low enough temp to do it if it is in their genes. Purple colors are only really good for upping the bag appeal to novice smokers. Actually, (according to subcool) the purple phenos of a given strain are nearly always less potent than the "standard" color phenos.

As far as the product you're refering to, I can only assume it's Humboldt County's Pruple Maxx (aka Stacker). I actually got some as a gift, though I'm yet to try it out. The only thing is, the manufacturer is the only source I can find saying that it has actually brought out purple colors in a plant...and nute (or supplement) manufacturers are kind of notorious for exaggerating (read: making up) the awesome powers of their product.

If its in the genes, with the temp changes you have...especially how they will be as harvest time grows closer, if the colors don't come out naturally I wouldn't expect any product to make it happen.

Hope that helped. Good luck, man.

I had a couple change colors this year but it wasn't until the last week or so of flowering did they start. Avatar is one of them.

Some times tho's purple strains dont always turn purple, Its not garenteed 100% that they will. How Long Have they been Growing? I hear they start to change During flowering.
