The Purps only has 4 phenos. All very bright purple. Also, on a side note, the Purps is the only genotype that can change phenotypes when taking cuttings.
Explanation:
If you have only 1 Purps mother plant, and you take a cutting from it, it can change to a different pheno during veg, which is a cool phenomena which can be a plus in the end.
I know its hard to believe but Ive grown it long enough to understand it. Ive read about it in the MJ Strain Books.
Also: It is nanner sensitive. Try not to stress them out. It likes to throw nanners during the last few weeks of flower. They can be picked off with a wet paper towel to nullify pollin spreading and still be ok without cauzing any damage to the whole crop. Just be easy on them with the light schedules.

spray twice a week at lights out with dutchmaster reverse. Ive had super unhealthy plants, bad light cycles, fem seeds, ect, but reverse helped alot. I still use it preventitively

Thanx Rocknratm. I use it ocasionally. I spray bagseed or nanner prone plants with Dutch Master Reverse and Saturator at the last week of veg, week 1, and week 3 of flower.

Thats very important. I cover my a/c at night. I cover all l.e.d's from my enviro controller and extension boxes and everything with blue painters tape. I got tarps covering all doors and thick black trashbags covering all windows. Any tiny little light leak, that can be easily missed, can screw up a good crop. I stand in my room the first day of lights out for atleast 5 minutes to let my eyes adjust and then I look for any leaks. Mostly from my equipment.

from those 2, it seems like height is a somewhat accurate early sexing technique. are they in a shorter than most group?

sexing technique is by looking at the plant where the balls or pistils would be at the nodes and they have pistils already, thats how i know there female... no early technique man lol

havent put them in 12/12 but i have 4 showing female now only after one month im fine on waiting the last bit for the others to show to not cause any added stress to the plants by switching light cycles while they are young. just my opinion bout it

i used to do about hundred at a time,flowering from seed.
thats something i might do if i was planning on flowering them out all the way, but no point if there gunna stay in vegg for mothers, which now i have 6 visible females, and one looking like balls forming but just a tiny growth i cant be sure yet
