3 of a kind.. but what kind?

Hey I was wonderin what strains turn their stems and leaves purple in early flowering? Not because of cold or anything because they have been outside in summertime. Is there too many strains to name? Or only a few have this trait.

lol go to florida during tha summer time and then tell me there is not a diff in the sunshine lol

lol, I've been there during the summer, hotter definitely, but heat stress isn't going make your plants more potent, if anything less. And potency is a genetic trait so as long as the plants are getting direct sunlight it will achieve it's potential whether in NY, maine, or florida. If there would be any difference it would be too small to measure.

While almost all strains will turn purple under cold stress, some have the genetic tendency to purple during the summer as the nights start to cool off a bit, though very few purple during the peak summer heat. Also, there are several different variations of the purple genes, for example, purple leaves and calyxes, purple leaves and green calyxes, and green leaves and purple calyxes. Quite a few strains have purple stems without any deficiency so I'd say there are too many to list.

Well see for yourself. Theres a few pix you can see the purple. They have been that way a few weeks now.

O and what are those tiny lil black bugs and how do I get rid of them. I have just been squashin them because I dont wanna spray crap on my plants.

I didn't see any noticable purpling, but pictures don't do justice. Those black dots causing all those little white dots(lol) are spider mites. Go to a garden center and pick up neem oil. It's perfectly safe and natural to use on your plants even during budding. You use it once a week and your bug problem will vanish. If you don't see any products specifically labeled "neem oil" look on the ingredients list of pesticides meant for fruits and vegetables, you're bound to find it. Usually products labeled "3-in-1 pesticide, miticide, fungicide" are just plain neem oil, but check. It's also good for many funguses that will attack those beautiful buds you've got. Just make sure you apply it in the morning so it has time to dry off and I recommend you wash them off(rain) before they're finished budding. Good luck and nice plants.

Keepin the lil fuckers under control by blastin them off.. Still refuse to spray anything on my plants. The one on the left is soo sticky that bugs dont make it outta there alive.

Still don't know what strains but leanin towards stinky pinky...

Alright it im done tryin to figure out what fukin strain these plants are. Im more interested in when and yield. Guesses?

1 1/2 to to 2 1/2 ounces per plant would be my guess

If your not going to use anything to kill them then my prayers go out to you. They lay tiny eggs that are very hard to see. Also it doesnt matter how sticky the buds are, they will create webs on them so they can walk around. You can try and squish them all but each one lays eggs, so killing the visible mites only does so much.


I know you refuse to spray things on them, but those spider mites can become a huge problem.

[crippynights]

Yea the bugs are on one plant only. And yes I know what the lil eggs look like. And no people dont worry the bug problem aint gettin outta control. I just need to know when I should start cuttin colas. I wanna smoke!!
