Greetings and salutations fellow farmers! Fall is upon us, and what better way to celebrate the most colorful season than by growing some purple grapey goodness?? In honor of the autumnal foliage, I popped 5 of the Nspecta's Mendocino Purple F1's from his sister company (or maybe it should be brother company since they aren't fems :p ) Pirates Of The Emerald Triangle.
Unfortunately, my luck seems to have kicked me in the nuts and 4 of them turned out to be dudes. You win some, you lose some! My sole surviving lady is 2 weeks into flower and is looking absolutely gorgeous. I'll keep this post updated with pics every now and then, definitely before harvest, and I was wondering if any of ya'll have grown this strain out yet?
I know the Nspecta said about 70% of them can be expected to naturally purple up, but with only one plant and my shitty luck on this run, I'm betting I'll fall into that 30%! Does anyone know at what point the buds start showing purple? Mr @Nspecta? No big whoop though, worst case scenario, I end up with some top shelf green buds!
Oh, and since I have very limited space (I'm a hobby grower, these buds are just for me!) I didn't want to run only one plant, so I threw some Bubba On Dubs (Trainwreck x Bubba) in a few three gallon pots and am running them 12/12 from seed. We'll see how that shakes out...
I hope everyone's summer wasn't too hot, and may your croptober be plentiful!
