Grand Daddy Purple CFL Mircrogrow

Thanks. I water every third day. And water 3 liters of tap hard water with a little botanicare bloom. Around 5ml. But I amend the top inch soil twice a day to make sure it gets dry fast. That way no larvae survives. And most importantly the soil doesn't form any dry pockets due to clogged soil. Also the air pruning pot helps a lot
 
I just love how all your photos come out, they make me feel like I'm there! Your buds look great, and still look like they still have quite a bit of fattening up to do! Pretty impressive for CFLs :)
 
Just a little update. Its flower day 52. Still a cupple of weeks to go. Tricomes look very ready but they been looking like this for a while and none are going amber yet. The buds are crazy dense and they been fattening a lot. I have some nutrient burn due to the hard tap water I give them but barely affected progressively trough entire flower so no harm done its a very tolerant strain I would say. I've had worse burn and even lockout with this water on other strains. What do ou guys think?

I love this grow diary man,you can see the whole transformation happening,especially the chromes changing colors!!!Also i read that you would change to 11/13 lighting schedule to encourage colors in the buds,can you give me some tips or point me in a direction with that?
 
Thanks. That's what I'm trying to do a full grow journal so people can really learn and analyze instead of surfing endless little topics.

About the 11/13 light schedule. Its to encourage flowering in sativa strains with long flower periods and to encourage ripenin on plant that seems like they will never finish flowering. The hole concepts relys on the hours of light in the native environment of certain strains. Where summer never reaches 18hrs light a day and winter has long nights. Trying to mimic the end of season will give the signal that is time to finish. Most indica varietys will fatten up in the last 2 -3 weeks. So this practice is not recommended on indicas cause you will lose yield.
 
Mine looked like yours about 5 days before I chopped. It was a tad early, but if any indication I'd say she should be prime around 60 days.

Very nice! How's she smell?
 
Its so sweet and purple I cannot believe it. Its like grape or berry. I love coming back to my room it smells like paradise
 
Suuuuuuup people I got another update. I'm super psyched about my granddaddy purple actually turning purple even with temps above 25C. Just the first hues on some leaves but its way more than I expected. Tricomes look ready but not even a single amber so they are still fattening and getting ripped.
