    First Time Growing Purple (LED | SCROG)

    FLOWER WEEK 1: Flipped to 12/12 this week as the Mendo Breath had already grown into her side of the screen. I ended up giving her one more row because the Purple Animal Kush is growing much slower. The "kush" traits are really showing in her (I'm sure the broken stem didn't help). Overall...

    First Time Growing Purple (LED | SCROG)

    VEG WEEK 4: Decided to raise the Kush as it looked like she wouldn't catch up before flower and of course my clumsy *** broke half of the main "T" stem I had LST'd. I attempted to fix her with some tape and honey but she was shot, the branch dead and wilted. I did my best to patch her up and...

    First Time Growing Purple (LED | SCROG)

    Dude I'm pretty surprised with how well it works. I was killing myself on AC costs during this heat wave in Los Angeles. Broke stoners gotta make do! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    First Time Growing Purple (LED | SCROG)

    VEG WEEK 3: Ok so I tapped into my own stoner ingenuity and rigged up a DIY AC unit to keep the temps in my tent low enough to induce a color change during flower. I looped some copper refrigerator tubing around the face of my fan, then ran that to a aquarium pump I submerged in a cooler with...

    First Time Growing Purple (LED | SCROG)

    VEG WEEK 3: Ok so I repotted both girls into 5-gal pots and began my 4-way LST (result of topping) to prepare for SCROG. However, the MENDO Breath is growing MUCH faster than the Purple Animal Kush. You can see in the pics below that the Mendo is damn near double the size of the Kush. The...

    First Time Growing Purple (LED | SCROG)

    Yeah the 5 gal was a tight fit but it seemed to work. I was pretty happy with my yield. I considered moving down to 3 gal but wasn't sure it'd produce as much or be able to fully fill my SCROG screen. What are you Growing right now? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Good to know man maybe 3gal would be better? My last grow was crowded but 5 gal still got the job done. Maybe 3 would give them a bit more room Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    First Time Growing Purple (LED | SCROG)

    Well I did get a strain high in anthocyanin but I've heard low temps can help trigger a color change. I'm solely doing this to mainly see if I CAN. Just trying to grow something different, plus those purple nugs are gorgeous! The main question is why not? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    First Time Growing Purple (LED | SCROG)

    Yeah it's going to be a bitch getting temps that low in Los Angeles. I'm thinking of building one of those DIY A/C fan units with spiraled copper wire pumping cold water through (picture below). Any other ideas for ways to drop my temp enough to trigger a solid color change? Sent from my...

    First Time Growing Purple (LED | SCROG)

    Yeah I couldnt find any Buckeye or GDP etc...closest I could get was Purple Animal Kush and Mendo. Do you have any tips to help triggers color change (other than temp)? Bag appeal is important to me as I enter the grow in local festivals Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    First Time Growing Purple (LED | SCROG)

    What's up ladies & fellas! This will be my 2nd grow journal as I was blown away by all the helpful advice you guys gave me on my last grow. Since my Gorilla Glue #4 came out so well, I figured I'd push myself for this grow and attempt to grow some colorful/purple weed. I went to a very...

    First time grow! GG#4 & Skywalker x Grateful Breath

    CURING WEEK 2 So this grow is all wrapped up! I ended up realizing I probably pulled the Skywalker OG about a week too early, however the GG#4 came out AMAZING. I honestly don't think I've felt weed this sticky. The smell is on point as well. After a couple weeks of curing now I twisted up...

    First time grow! GG#4 & Skywalker x Grateful Breath

    Day 56 (HARVEST DAY) The time has come! Took about five hours to harvest the girls. I removed all the fan leaves for compost and left the sugar leaves on. All of the popcorn buds/lower buds were removed and fully trimmed to dry on a rack while the larger buds were hung to dry. Completely...

    First time grow! GG#4 & Skywalker x Grateful Breath

    DAY 54 Began 48 hours of darkness before harvest. Plants have been flushed and are gearing up. Looking packed full of resin. Anyone else do the 48-72 hours of darkness? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    First time grow! GG#4 & Skywalker x Grateful Breath

    WEEK 12 (FLOWER WEEK 8) Thanks for all the kind words, makes me feel better about my first grow. Stopped feeding this week and began my week-2 week flush. Girls are about 10% amber trichs and looking almost ready! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    First time grow! GG#4 & Skywalker x Grateful Breath

    Week 11 (Week 7 Flower) ******* the girls are getting big!! The GG#4 is damn near covered in trichromes. The Skywalker x Grateful Breath cross isn't as powdery, but is growing larger colas than the Gorilla. Hopefully she still gets the job done. Also noticed a slight Thirp infestation...not...

    First time grow! GG#4 & Skywalker x Grateful Breath

    Week 10 (Week 6 Flower) Had a little bit of nutrient burn after feeding Bloombastic and Cha-Ching to each plant. Flushed twice this week and seeing how they recover. The buds are getting much bigger tho and stinking up the place. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
