I saw Fdd2blk's thread https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/9902-color-my-dreams.html and I was inspired! A lot of people wanted more results so here they come!


I have set this experiment up wit a few different variables this time. I will run it a few times slightly different each time and I will record my findings in this thread. The overall goal is to change the color while not harming the taste and to have some fun! I think I can improve/tweek the taste!

You put a fresh cut/wet bud in a tiny bowl of colored/flavored water. JUST THE STEM not the actual bud!!!!!!! It will soak the color up and show it in it's flower.

:mrgreen:EXPERIMENT 1: Color

SAME STRAIN/PLANT IN ALL CUPS.
Cup1 Blue food Dye with sugar(1/3 of each) 24 hours later VERY VERY BLUE BUD!
First bud in all pics is normal.

Cup2 Purple food dye(mixed as instructed) 24hrs only a few stems changed.

Cup3 Red (small amount) 24hrs Also a few stems but nothing much.

Cup4 STRONG Grape Kool-aid 24hrs nothing changed color, maybe the flavor will be different.
No pic, it stayed the same.

I will now dry/cure all this bud and see how it is. In the original exp it was speed dried and I think that was his problem.

EDIT: Since drying a little the red and purple buds are showing up better and the blue is way more intense.

I don't know about the rest of you, but my goal is to grow the purest medicine possible, I don't want to be smoking food coloring and sugar. Sugar will caramelize as it burns when given post-mortem like that, and the food coloring? Just not for me.
 
This is a pretty cool idea man, keep it up! What about black coloring or maybe orange?

It seems like you could use the coloring as a way to quickly track or trace the uptake of water to your buds.

(just saw some of you guys posted here while I was away)

The flavor was not affected by any of them just the color. Try it out guys, It doesn't hurt!
