3x300W LED, Purple Kush, Scrog, Soil, Grow

[b0rker]

I opt'd tonight to skip my normal every other water feeding.. the RO was 680-720.. I also noticed a few leave had some random splotting (nothing crazy and prob due to being out of the light) but I just think I'll skip a few days and let the RO get into the 400-500 range first.. seeing as I put in 300ppm water. I added the 8ml sili again to the 4G's of calmag'd water.. everything is looking greats imho.. along with this I also updated to a 4" apollo filter.. this thing.. well.. it's bigger than the previous ipower.. I am basically an apollo groupie ;P I just enjoy the quality I've experienced with them from the tent to the lights to the trimmers..

Nice work B0rker. That purple is absolutely amazing I have never seen anything like it so early in flower. Plants look happy and that SCROG is certainly loaded up!

man that scrog is looking nice a hell I just took my plants out of the scrog today keep up the good work

Lastnight I did another feeding.. 1/2/3 and the usual calmag / sili. RO originally was in the upper 600's and the ppm of the nutrients was 1300. that RO was 580-620.

Things look good from this shot.

and this one too

however.. I'm now perplexed.. this is the up close and personal.. and today is 3weeks of flower.

are the tri's supposed to be that color? they don't look amber.. but more just purple.. which would make sense being purple kush.. but I have white on other parts of the plant.. anyone reading this over seen this before? is this how this is supposed to look?

Did another normal watering.. Plants are looking great.. but this whole tricone thing is odd.. I'm reading online people have harvested around day 55-65.. just doesn't seem like this plant should be cut..

I'm 12weeks in.. or day 84. and 3weeks 1 day of flower. I may hold off on feedings and see how things go over the next few days. that way if I do need to cut down I'll be ready in 2weeks.

here's some updated photos

I would not start to cut back on feedings yet. I bet that the purple you are seeing in the trichomes is just light reflecting off the plant.

I think they will be at least twice their current size (the buds) before your harvest time.

Either way. Great work!

 

[b0rker]

that's exactly what I was thinking as well.. I'll most likely just cut back to every 2 watering rather than every other.. all the hairs are white white.. I don't think it's the light reflecting as there are white and purple tris' next to each other.. it's just odd I say!

so keeping with the previous thoughts.. and just the look of the plants.. they're not done flowering.. and I really don't know why they have the amber/purple tris.. but I will push this to the 6-10 weeks mark.. every PK thread I'm reading.. none of them have plants that look like this.. so I'll be a guinea pig

tonights water was the normal.. 4G 20ml Calmag / 8ml of Sili.. (ph'd to the usual 6.5) PPM of 423. RO was 645.. feeding time! I did something different with the nutrient water tonight as well.. rather than deal with 1G.. and splitting between the 3 pots.. I just made 4G..
20ml of Calmag
8ml of sili
40ml of Micro
20ml of Gro
60ml of bloom
Ppm was 1250 RO was 650/680/720 and now they fester =)
I also counted bud sites.. I'm a min of 70 buds.. my ocd will love this trimming!

some updated shots.

and a no filter image of the LEDs shining down..

oh.. and.. my new scrubber... still not helping.. I think I've just got to much going on in this small tent.. it's not a terrible smell.. but when I walk in.. I can def tell there is something going on.. ;p

 

[The Dealer]

Some sexy bud right there.

Today I took my Amnesia Lemon out to redo the whole tent and let me tell ya, Theres a huge difference from her smell from inside the tent with the filter on and her out of the tent. I guess you can never really get rid of the smell coming out of the tent 100% but i'm sure the scrubber is making sure the air blowing out is clean.

 

[b0rker]

I opened up some more vents in the tent.. I dunno if it'll help or not.. but at the end of the day.. It smells good =)

 

[b0rker]

some updated shots.. I trimmed some.. and my hands were sticky after.. and smell soooooo good.. I like the aroma these buds are putting off.. sweet smelling!

 

[BpoBrad]

I don't think you can smoke buds covered in purple paint bruh lmao

 

[b0rker]

I don't think you can smoke buds covered in purple paint bruh lmao

purple paint ha.. it def looks like it doesn't it.

 

[db003]

Had a minor misshap that almost made me pass out.. I was swamped with a move and didn't get home till after lights were out on the normal watering day.. so had to go an extra day.. when I opened the tent..

wilty plants!

I watered and they perked back up within an hr or 2..

2 days later you can see the middle plant starting to yellow..

and today

I'm ok with the yellowing.. as I don't plant to go longer than 50 days with these plants (which I'm on day 33 now) so I'm going to give regular calmag / sili water for the next few days and then switch to regular ph'd water for 2 weeks to flush and then harvest. seems like that is what the plants are telling me.


here are some shots from the past 3 days. nice and purple!
