It was entertaining to go over your grow as you pointed out we have a similar setup and wow beautiful buds didn't know gg#4 got so purple

Gotta love that color. I'm a fan of purple buds too. I don't know why but it seems that the strains that Ive grown with genetic purple colors also have very dense buds.
Looks like yours are going to be too. Very nice. If you want to try another knock out "purple" strain think about trying Ayahuasca Purple. Its killer too. Bet you're getting anxious to harvest_ gonna be pretty soon!

Okay folks, sorry for the wait. Two more posts and the journey will be properly memorialized.
Week9 flower: Keeping her comfy and flushing every 2-3 days with 1.5-2g of pH'd spring water. Temps 70-82F, RH 42-68%. Had to chop a small cola, trim and bring to a beach weekend with the guys. No, we didn't smoke it (would've been grassy) and yes someone did take it home and let it mold (my fault for not giving care instructions). Either way, the stress/enjoyment of daily maintenance was coming to an end, but the anxiety of harvest, dry/trim and cure was looming, especially since I was going away for a week on day70 of flower!
Welp, take a look. The pictures speak for themselves. I'll post the chop/dry/cure later tonight if I don't get too... ahem... comfortable after my post-dinner sesh

If you haven't left yet or haven't decide what to do while you're gone this is what I have done in similar situations_ If they are ready to harvest and dry and I'm going to be gone for 5-7 days I water them well the night before I take them down. Then I remove all the fan halves and any secondary leaves and cut the branches off at the base where they join the "trunk". This keeps them from drying too fast and they should be ready to cure when you get back. But this schedule works for me because I have dried and cured about 6 times in the same room and know that if I keep the humidity in the 50% range and the temp in the 68-72 range that it takes 5-7 days to dry just right.When I hang them I make sure they don't touch and never had problem with mold.I also have a fan aimed at the opposite wall, turned on low, just enough to keep a little air circulating in the room. If I have to leave before they are ready to come down then I water them very well before I leave. If they are in 5-7 gallon pots then they won't start to dry until the 3-4th day and if they don't get any water after that for a few days before harvest then they will dry a little faster when you get back and cure once they are ready. I also have a gravity feed watering system that I can set up that drips water into the pots 4x day_ about 32 oz.total which lasts about 7 days for 5 plants. Like a constant drip system does. They just drain into the buckets and out the bottom. Whatever you do i hope everything works out and you don't stress about it while your out of town!
