Should I be pruning more now?

Also I am using a 90w LED ufo light and a 2700k 250w CFL light. Its a small space lined mith Mylar. Does that sound enough light?

I think that you are looking good on this one bud. The buds are forming nice and its good to hear you got some trics forming.
At this point i my self would not cut anymore till closer to harvest. Let her fill in now, once she gets some real buds on there you can think about it again.
She is really lush Endorium keep doing what you are doing to her seems shes loves the light you have on her in there

It's not my drinking water! I use my well as the PH is excellent where as my tap water is way out!

The temps only drop below 40 on a night cycle, no more than a couple of hours by the time it cools down, I might have to raise the temp a little or carry on with the risk of purple plants!

I did use bottled water before but ran out so started using my well and had no problems with the plants so have carried on with it!

Mossy any ideas?

Im thinking a deficiency maybe, phosphorus if anything, though it doesn't really look anything like that!

I was thinking this and have seen it before, but i know that you have been feeding this plant as well.

Id like to see some photos of this purpling going on. Itll help the diagnosis and if its a real phosphorus issues itll be nice to have a pic for reference in the future.

Share homie lol

Agreed that is cold but i have seen these plants survive some serious conditions.
Look at the dates on some of the pics in mossys albums
I always thought that most plant stopped growing below 50f
His on the other hand defy nature.....
