Hey all. Im around 9 weeks into flowering with my Grandaddy Purp. I've been flushing for a week. They look great but the purple color isnt really coming through. Any ideas on how to assist these little ladies to show their purple? They are under 12/12 obviously, with 400 hps, and the room is pretty damn warm during the day. Please let me know asap. I'm planning on chopping soon and could use all the help I can get. Word.

drop the temps a little bit

that usually helps them get a darker purple and may make your plants show more

and if that doesnt work they may be genetically different than the purple plants

yeah the room gets real warm during the day, i crack the window for fresh air most hot days
should i put an ac in or something? what temp would be best for dark hours?
im also probably harvesting the main cola, if not everything this weekend.
should i keep in complete darkness for the final 48 hours?
i read alotta places that saud this will help finish plant and produce more resin

To really get em to turn purp, you gotta put em in a fridge for a day or two prior to harvest, make sure there dry first

Mmmm..interesting..does this really work?Have you ever done this man?

Cus I know you need to drop the temps lower for colorful buds...and that its mostly a genetic thing.

Most true indicas turn purple if the temps get low enough in the last few weeks of flowering!!

Try Kush,or Afghani!!

Yes, you are right sometimes the genetics just are not there for purple color, but if and when they are it brings them out even with no visible color prior to
