Granddaddy Purple - the purple pheno

[PlumberSoCal2]

The male

has been bagged

and stored in the garage, north side on the cool cement floor until next weekend when I'll pull out a few stems and hit them all one last time. A couple of girls need to mature a bit more. May even hit them again in 2 weeks, just depends on the girls.

I cleaned up the girls

and bent the GDP female again

I just want to keep her under the fence.

GDP 2023 cut

Swelling with seeds

Blueberry Hash plant BBHP

Rhubarb

Cherry Wine hemp

I washed down the area and added all the clippings to the composter and watered it all down. I'll do that a few more times to make sure any pollen is made inert.

Watching those flowers form seeds has always been so facinating to me. He sure was a pretty boy LOL rather pretty pollen flowers when they open

 

[PlumberSoCal2]

3 cuts about 3 weeks to go

They may be short but they are very stout and studley.

in the middle. Behind it

one from seed. Only other one from seed. All the rest are cuts of 2023.

This one

is with the Sin City Juice breeding group which is getting sprayed and also broken up.

Last but not least are the Studlies I posted the other day

These smaller plants always produce more flower then I expect and these 3 are for smoking

These are all pretty much 3-4 weeks away from harvest. All plants are being sprayed with neem oil this morning for general maintenance against moth larvae.

The growth structure and foliage of your GDP is very different from mine. Interesting.

From seed and seeded. Below are cuts from last year fem

She's 56 days since flip today. And while I don't go by days so much her trichs are all opaque and a few bronze. Tomorrow early morning she gets washed down, hard streem from the hose and allowed to dry and then chopped.

She got neem oil Monday night and I don't smell even a wiff of neem. I spent some time with her this evening and the only thing I do smell is grapes and frickin BERRIES Wash and dry and chop to hanging in the garage by the end of the day tomorrow. Can't wait to torch this up in a couple weeks can't get enough of this one

3 @ day 58

I feel like putting one in the freezer and running it through the hash bags.

So those are the autos right? When did you start counting days?
I have 4 and I'm trying to guessimate when they'll be ready.

I love that blueberry hash plant

These are regulars. Indica regulars. 56+/- days normally but I've taken them down from 50-72 days of flower.

For autos always go by the trichs.

---

Day 53 of flower for these two

Large one is from seed and small one is a 2023 cut

I bent this one over so all the lowers became colas. This was mainly for seeds so I really should've just topped it but it should give up 1000+/- seeds.

It was over 90F in the garage and one reason I leave all the leaves on. Well that and I'm lazy af but seriously they help to dry the buds a little slower.

Grapes and Berries for days

I love that blueberry hash plant

I've got 2 in the garden and 2 seeded. One crossed with GDP and the other with Sin City Juice (and 2 still vegging in the greenhouse). They take about 65-70 days so another 2 weeks although I'll be checking those 2 for seed development and they may also come down earlier.

Very similar to Cap's Cali Blues in taste from what I've gathered. Incredible Blueberry smell.

The cross with the GDP is something I really look forward to growing.

I got some fem seeds a couple years ago and I've been keeping a mom or two every winter since. I'll be taking cuts soon and plan on making some fem seeds this fall. I've got several strains that I really need to make a bunch of fem seeds, starting with that 18% CBD hemp

Omg you're not lying about the purple! . That's insane. I been curious if I had an imitation or something genuine. I can tell you for sure on the 2 pheno types I have one, being shorter and bushier and the other taller, neither have displayed that color. That's amazing! Oh man if you put up any seeds I'd love to run some. Looks like it will be fire!

Some gorgeous GDP in this thread

I just recently got some GDP seeds thanks to @Herbies_Seeds, any suggestions for an indoor grower?

Nice to hear from you :) I'd recommend checking the following article: https://herbiesheadshop.com/blog/best-way-to-grow-cannabis. There's a lot of tips on growing, so I believe you'll find something interesting and useful

After a totally uneventful Purple summer grow I'm starting again for a winter with hopes of lots of purple

Last year I did an orgy of green and purple breeding. Melding all the phenos together with open pollination. After running nothing but the Purple pheno this year and growing NO PURPLE plants I'm gonna have to go back to the seeds of the open pollination AND the several purple boys and girls I crossed and again do an open pollination. Pain in the ass if you ask me but if you want something done...

So here we go, 18 from purple x purple and 18 from the open. And I'm thinking of 18 from the green only, fk it

 

[PlumberSoCal2]

100+ GDP seeds Oct 18

There's 7 trays 18 seeds each except for 2 trays there were 12 & 14 seeds.

3 trays of Purple x Purple and several of green and 2 of the open pollination.

These are all last year's seeds, same stuff I grew this summer. No plans on breeding unless something grabs me hard.

Still have most of this years harvest hanging and dry as I focused on processing the seedless weed first. Hopefully I'll get some of that done today and get some seeds wrapped for mailing.

Gonna celebrate with smoking nothing but GDP today
