A Paranormal Exploration of Purple Ghost Candy (OGpapa's Version)

What a week! Storms have ravaged the Midwest for a week now, we are finally getting some much needed sunshine. Even throughout several power outages, and extremely high humidity. We are now moving ahead!


The Purple Ghost Candy ladies are happy, thick, and on cruise control! I'm thankful for good genetics! It's definitely made an amateur grower like myself, look like a pro!

Ladies are thirsty. #1 is by far the biggest lush. I could water her everyday, but I don't. I try to keep them all even, easy for me to water/feed as a group vs one here one there!


I was going to keep pushing before jumping into flowering. But I see everyone else flipping, or have flipped already.

SO today will be the last day of Veg.

60days is plenty. If I wasn't in a comparative, I would probably push a other 15-30days. Depending on growth rate.

I'm just trying stay in line with all the other comparative journals that started on time!

Dedicating this flip to mayday tomorrow!

Make sure you all take a moment to live in the moment!

seize the day-

Thank you! I have no idea what I'm doing! If it wasn't for the community here at 420 helping me get it going! Glad to have a great community is brothers and sisters to lean on!



They most certainly are looking happy and healthy!! Glad you survived the storms. We only had rain up this way. Calling for rain again tonight and most of the week I think.
Thank you! I'm trying! Everyday is a new day! Expect the unexpected!

The storms were good and bad. We needed the rain, but those that experienced these set of storms will have stories to tell for the rest of their lives. Keep you head up! Beautiful days ahead! Looks like rain every other day here for 10 days. That grass is gonna be 2ft tall!

What a night! Thankful for my families safety. Praying again for those that experienced mother nature's powerful embrace! 💞 Lots of love to everyone in the communities that have dealt with the wrath.


Update time!



Ladies have been bumped to good ol' 5gal fabric bags. As much as I love watering every other day, it's a lot of extra work.

They have all found the new homes rather comfy. Pictures before and after repotting. Also have pics of flowering kicking off! Let's get it going y'all!
