Doesn't work that way. He had a strain that matures purple, which is common.
I think he was yanking your chain.

Lool i did this in primary school with white flowers. All the petals went the colour of the water, should work on weed then, time will tell !

I guarantee you are barking up the wrong tree. The only way food coloring would affect plant color, is if you spray the crap on your ladies after harvest. (very bad idea)

There are shitloads of 'purple' strains. Purple is a self-defense color often used in different species of plants for sun protection and for cold protection. Kinda like anti-freeze for plants.

Have I grown purple strains...? Yup. Still do on occation.
Have I ever used food dye to change color? Nope. And I never will, especially since it doesn't work and beyond marketing...means nothing except it's a colorful flower.

Your best bet in all this...read the FAQ's and some growlogs till your eyes bleed. Learning to grow cannabis is a process, not an event.

And if he was actually serious...you should quit listening to your brother, as he's clueless.

omg phatjay ur plants r sexc and ur usin cfls? Mate dats well nyc.. I woz wondering if u cud giv ne advice on my babys.. Lyk how long u wud giv em til harvest..

Glad you like the look of my girls, tbh I am a bit disappointed with the results this time round, the secondary buds are not as good as last time. But the cuttings came from a different mother with poorer genetics. Your ladies are looking good too, I would be proud to have them in my harem.

The only advice I can give about when to harvest you probably already know, which is get something to look at the Trichomes and go by those. Plants grown under CFL's mature slower than those grown under other types of lighting, as much as 2 weeks longer. Adding more light can negate this effect, so your side lighting should help them mature faster.

And sry 4 ne misundastandin on charbuds thread

Thats my fault, I didn't mean to offend you (honest), I should have kept my opinion to myself. Grow logs are for talking about growing cannabis.

:sorry1:

cheers mr fat..

[PhatJay]

thank u so much 4 takin the tym out 2 scan dat. Yea its indica mate.. So it 6 weeks 2moro.. Yea i fink i giv it anuva 2 weeks? Wt wud u recomend?x

I don't really want to recommend because I don't think I have enough knowledge to make this decision for you. Looking at the latest pics in your thread, I would say the buds look immature and are going to take longer. They look like my buds did at around week 5.

I go on holiday wednds day 4 2 weeks so i dno wt 2 do u fink dere b ok? I gt sum1 waterin em jst about harvest.. ?

Depends on how much you trust your friend to look after them.

7 weeks flower = 1 weeks PK at week 5
8 weeks flower = 2 weeks PK at weeks 5 & 6
