how long should it take to turn a sativa bud purple?

[Rusty Trichome]

Its been awhile since anyone commented on this. But for everyone to know in the future, you CAN turn almost any cannabis plant purple. It's simple the last 3 weeks of flowering just strave the plant of Nitrogen. I see it all the time. Home-grown regs, that have been starved of nitrogen, turn purple and people trying to sell it off at $60 an 8th.

You see it all the time...? Hardly likely, as your statement is less than accurate. Curious...where do you get your info? Nitrogen is restricted thruout the flower cycle. According to this...all of my plants should be purple.

The only way I've ever seen a non purple strain show purple is thru phosphorus deficiency, or micronute/heavy metals overdose...which is nothing to strive for.
For those interested...purple offers nothing to cannabis flavor or quality...period. It's just a 'marketable' color.
