Outdoor 08 "Purple POwer Plants"

the color should start comin with the colder weather. i just bought some purple power beans and not a damn one of them germed..! is it only a nervina strain, iis that were u got ur beans from? anyway i got a purple Kush lady and just over night started really turnin purple.. one leave on the main cola turned like almost entirly purp that night.. but any sorry t here bout ur baby.. how tall is/was ur biggest one? did u have any probs germinatin? good luck bro and try hold on da harvest to bring out all the purp..

Im still holdin out on my girls and lettin 'em grow, I have cut a few limbs here and there to add up to more than 2 zips of purple tinted weed, just gotta wait on that Barney purple lol. out of 10 new purple power seed purchased from Nirvana 7 sprouted and 4 were girls. My tallest was the one who broke over in the rain and she was at least 12feet tall, she is still growing strong, nothin a lil ducktape didnt fix right up. I should have around 2 lbs of mostly purp when its all said n done off 5 plants. I will update with pictures soon.

lol yep ducktape fixes many things.. but sounds and looks good bro.. i havent had much luck with them seeds so i might just goto the club and pick up some Granddaddy purp.. idk i wanted to veg those new purp powers over the winter so i could have a few monsters next fall.. but oh well but i mean damn not even one.. not even a male so i could breed it!! but yea man looks good people love purp here in cali, keep it up bro

Well here are a few shot of the limbs I cut because they got all muddy when the limbs broke and the fresh lookin ones I cut today. Only a slight purple tint but the plants are turning more and more each day.

Second picture is blurry but it shows the purpleness the best id say.

look good bro, get a clearer shot!

I finally Harvested my biggest girl on nov 1. Grand turn out in all for me, seems that seeds were def mixed and I only ordered one type because each girl I had made totally diff budz, from small and leafy "really earthy" to big thick colas "some fruity some hashy" very upity high. Very nice smoke in my opinion although it still lacks curing but it can only get better. So here are some pics nearing the end and of my grow and some after the end.

good stuff

congratulations man, your buds look tasty. what was your yield per plant?

i hate this guy so much!!! lol jp jp, they look beautigul and mouth watering great job

Nice grow, thems some big nuggies

A lil over 5 zips each on 2 plants, 2 zips of absolute fire off one plant, a lil over 7 ounces off 1 plant and that pile on the table came from one plant 11 ounces in total off that one plant. Somewhere around 28 to 30 ounces in all.

you are 4 ounces short of a kilo. congratulations man.

A Kilo just sounds Gangsta as hell dont it. lol.

fo sheezy yo

damn..... I juset went hthrough this WHOLE journal.... and all I can say is WOW!!! That was fucking amazing!! I would LOVE to try anou outdoor grow.. but for 1.. I wouldnt know when I was supposed to start.. when do they vegg and when do they flower?? and its kinda hard where I am.. I live in a city... not many wooded areas.. adn I have no car either... soooo if I were to do it.. it woul dbe pretty hard to start growing indoors.. adn then just wk around my neighborhood with a fwe plants in my hands.. carrying them into the woods. lmao. i think sum1 would catch on pretty quicky.. but damn.. i wanna find a way to try it.. seriously.. I want to sooo bad!!

Maybe i'll try with a couple of the freebies I got from Nirvana.. they're sativa for sure.. and i seem to have trouble growing them indoors... sooo maybe they're an outdoor plant?? And maybe I can like.. grow them for a week or 2 indoors.. adn gently stick them into my backpack.. and bring sum binoculars and pretend im goin birdwatchin.. and slowly make it into the woods. lol.. and plant them sumwhere.

I know these questions r probly gonna sound really really dumb.. but i have NOOOOO experience wat so ever when it comes to outdoor growing... but if I was to start them indoors.. when I go outside to the woods... do I just leave them in the pot? and let'em grow from the pot still?? or do I dig a small hole.. and stick it direct in the ground?? and do I have to come back to water it every so often... and give it nutes??

My backyard is pretty fenced in/concealed.... maybe I could stick one in my backyard sumwhere!?

the only thing that stinks.. is the weather around here sucks!!! its prety decent durin the summer.. but in the fall.. temps are like 40-50.. =/ it would deff turn it purple.. lol. but probably kill it b4 it finishes.. but where i have a decent amount of those seeds.. i wuldnt really be mad if they die or w.e.... it would b eworth a try.

damnnn I just rambled on for maddd long.. lol. that White Widow tends to do that to me. lol

Only thing about your back yard is these tend to get on the taller side. You maybe could start them later to give a shorter veg period.

I am doing an experiment this year by planting a seed every month to see how big the plants are by harvest, so that next year I will

know about when I need to plant to keep them more managable. Plants sticking up 15' or 16' in the air keep you on your tippy toes

and your nerves on edge lol..

Start them indoors for a month or so maybe a lil less up to you. Then you will need to harden them, or else the sun could burn 'em up.

So start by putting them out in the sun for a few hrs or in a shady area for a few days then gradually give more n more sun over next

cpl days.

Then find you a spot away from all human contact dig a whole a good bit bigger than your pot your plants in, break up the soil good in

the bottom of the hole and put her in the hole. I like to give her plenty of water at this point and kinda push n pull on the root mass

down in the mud to get all air outta the hole. Be gentle during this and everything will be cool.

Now leave and dont mess with her for a cpl days, maybe 3 or 4 days, when you do go back to check her out. All should be good.

If it gets really hot out check her about every 6 to 10 days and give her plenty of water and nutes when needed.

And TELL NO ONE what you are doing.

nice. lookin forward to watching this seaon. i have a perfect place to gro outdoors but i didnt get everything ready time. but at least i will have my veg tent up and running next week so its mother plant/ cloning time. yeeehaw. sorry i dont normally yeehaw via keyboard just excited. not that i dont love plantin seeds becuz i do it has becum an addiction of its own. it just sucks waitin for them bitches to get goin then there is the whole male thing. sorry for rantin. ill be keepin an eyeout. keep em green.

dazed... never confused,

thanks man. =) thats a GREAT lil "how-to" guide =) JUST what I needed to know. thank you!! yeaa right down my st.. maybe like 2-3 min. down the st. theres a lil wooded area.. i think theres powerlines adn stuff down there.. but im thinking about maeybe taking a walk down there in a day or 2.. and just doin some exploring.. and bringing sum twisty ties with me.. soo i can mark my path if I find a good hiding spot. =) and then maybe try startin a couple plants.. and just taking it from there.. i will put a plastic bag in my book bag.. and put the plant in there.. and just wlak VERY carefully down the st. and into the woods.. with my binnoculars... lol. so I can say im goin birdwatchin if any1 asks..

I had 1 more question too... i have a giant bad of Miracle Grow Moisture control "Gardening Soil".. i picked it up instead of the potting soil by accident.. could or should i go down.. and dig a hole...really deep. and then when I put the plant in... fill the hole back up with the gardening soil?? figure if I have it... might as well use it.. idk tho.. i figured you wuold know what I should do. lol

and one last question.. when do the plants start flowering..? like.. am i gonna put this plant out then.. sayyy the end of may.. and its gonna veg for like 5 months?? just curious as to when the flowering period starts. thanks again for all ur help. =)
