Think of all of the plants with Skunk #1 in their genetics background and where those landraces came from. White hairs...red hairs...it's all in there and can come out at any time...indoors or out. Fast finishers are drawing on the northern sourced genetics in their background...the longer flowering plants are drawing on the more equatorial/southern traits. I've heard folks claim that subjecting a plant to "cold" (a relative term for where you live...LOL) will make it turn purple. I grow where a warm night is 60F in Summer....and they stay out there until it's freezing/so cold the plant is done. Had 40 plants+ last year out there. Maybe 1/3 of em turned colors. (leaves) The rest stayed green. Very few red hairs anywhere. Lotsa white. Cold as shit at night.
Yup...genetics.
I average 1/2 and 1/2 turn purple. Some of them, entire bud turns deep, dark, purple.
Others stay green as hell, a few might get a rusty color on fans and sugar leaves and be lime green bud.
There's so much to all of the process.
We've only scratched the surface.
I love hearing other opinions, helps us all grow the forum.
At some point, I think we have become a threat to cannabis companies and dispensaries.
We basically are teaching people to grow their own shit and not depending on going to a certain place.
Sorry, I'm stoned, and changed subjects again.
Where's the pics?
I got them.
