like it doesnt already?? haha.
my one stem to a lower branch that didn't get as much air blown on it as the rest of the plant ended up almost snapping because the bud was so heavy already the stem wasn't too thin either. still thicker then my last grow which carried buds of that size with no problem, i had to drill sticks in my bucket to that the branch will stay in place.
:bigjoint:

These Purple Punch crosses are badass. Sucks that your branch broke, but it's kind of awesome having buds heavy enough to do that.

I had such heavy colas on a couple of my outdoor plants last year that some wind gusts broke the plants right in half...the branches were a good 1" diameter, and they snapped like pencils.

funny part is, it luckily didn't even snap, it just went completely limp, it turned flaccid almost lmfao

Most of those go around 70days on those two. There’s some that finish sooner and not very many that finish later. 70 is a nice guideline to keep in mind for Scarlett Johansson and OOP ;)
Thanks. I can't wait to get these harvested and curing...gonna be some nice terps on at least 2 of them, but all 4 are looking good to me. :weed:


No bullshit or ass kissing here, you've done some nice work with these. :clap:

Chocolate Frosting wasn’t released, I’m curious which line you’re referring to?
Hey honest, did you ever run tests on your genetics using led's? if so did they tend to take longer during flower under them?
asking because i'm in day 52 of flower now, and my plants don't look close to done, i don't think.

i NEEED to take a cut of this at the end & reveg. this stuffs turning out so fire. it's got nice grey hues now. took some pics with my better camera that isn't my phones.
this is the cfs, not as impressive(yet) mostly because she hasn't gotten nearly as much light.

i've pinned it down to my extremely cold temps, not my chinese led lights. never mind :)

Is that 52 days of actual flowering or 52 days on 12/12?

I’ll be buying some LEDs to run testing of future lines and see if it’s an additional stress factor I need to be aware of. But at this time no, I test under a mix of CMH and HPS

52 from the start of 12/12.
the buds are small because of the combination between my led use, and my low temps that i've had throughout my grow. they'll look even better next run, i'd imagine. probably a bit less grey/purple, idk which one to call it. i'm gonna stick with grey. i'm gonna take a cut of this and keep it small, reveg it, and make it last until i can get my next run going that will be with better lighting(600w hps), as well as a chiller. 5x5 tent, 4 plants, 32 tops. sounds like my kinda challenge.

Gotcha. Yeah I'm on day 55 of 12/12, if I recall correctly it was like 9/10 days to transition to flower, so I'm calling it day 45 of flower. My plants were small when I flowered, so I never expected chunky colas, but they seem to be putting out pretty decent.

Flowering is recorded as starting the day you first had a 12 hour night. In indoor terms we don’t count transition separately. In outdoor it makes more sense to include transitions in your tally because outdoor genetics have different triggers. Some plants will flower as soon as there’s 13.5 hours of daylight, other need closer to 12 to flower, all strains seem to begin transitioning around 14 hours of sunlight and declining though. It’s all landrace factors from the ancient lineages. But yeah, indoors flowering and transition are all counted as “flowering”, just easier to keep it less confusing for people since some strains transition 10 days inside and some transition as long as 35 days inside. Although most modern genetics are typically a 2 week transition or thereabouts ;)

Honest, can you recommend any PP strains or freebie strains that perform well outdoors? Something with resistance to mold and mildew?
