End result of the Purple Cake. Super gassy with after notes of orange citrus.

Gave her the chop at day 61 of flower. Still had a few white hairs but was showing all cloudy trichomes with some starting to amber. Ended up with 179 grams wet. Hoping for at least an ounce and some change dry. Will post more pics once dried and cured.

Looking nice and frosty. Getting close to the end. Most all trichomes are still showing milky and hazy, only amber on some of the sugar leaves.

Day 50 of flower. Coming down the home stretch as she’s showing some amber on the sugar leaves and is only supposed to run from 56-70 days. Might harvest in about a week.

5 years ago

5th week of flower still going strong. Some nice cakey odors coming off of her now, hoping for some more signs of the purple punch to start showing up but either way she’s looking mighty fine.

Week 4 of 12-12. More pistils starting to turn orange now. A lot of trichome production on this lady too. Feeding Fox Farms Big Bloom at 5tbsp/gal.

5 years ago

Looking strong. Defoliated some of the larger fans after taking this picture to get more light inside. Starting to stack nicely and put off a lot of trichomes. Loving the tight spacing on the nodes too.

Week 3 of flower. Looking a little sad as I missed water day and the humidity has been super high. Also showing some early signs of nitrogen toxicity, so going to dial back the nutrients a bit. Otherwise her bud sites are looking nice, starting to see signs of pistils turning orange.

Looking strong in her flowering!

Pistils starting to show. Always a reassuring sign. Haha

Still on 12-12. But sites popping up nice new growth. Just started feeding her some Fox Farms Big Bloom.

5 years ago

Still on week 1 of 12-12.

5 years ago

Removed the divider in the box because she’s gotten so big. Now on flower schedule of 12-12 with the other plant.

5 years ago

Defoliated some lower and inner growth a couple days ago and she shot up all over the place. Getting really bushy and Bonsai looking strong.

5 years ago

Putting on lots of new growth all over. Looking super healthy.

5 years ago

Decided to take the ties off and let her grow free until I switch over to flower.

5 years ago

Before and after pics of tying her back down.

5 years ago

Removed the tie downs for some pictures and to see how she was holding up naturally. Also did some minor defoliation to let the light to the inner bud sites. I’ll let her sit for a day or two without the restraints and then I’ll tie her down again.

5 years ago

Growing strong. Tied down the two lowest nodes to start some LST. Main stalk is getting super thick and strong.

5 years ago

Trimmed a couple more big fans leaves to let some more light to the inside.

5 years ago

Growing strong. Moved the tie downs further out on the top stems.

Trimmed some big lower fans to get more light to the inside.

Pics of before and after tying her down.

She’s really blown up over the last three days. Just did some low stress bending. I’ll tie down the main stems once they grow a little bigger.

5 years ago

Still growing strong.

Plant is 4” tall from the soil. Stalk looking super thick and strong, nice new growth on pre flowers at earlier nodes.

5 years ago

Plant is 4” tall after topping. Showing new pre flower growth at last nodes up top. Fan leaves are getting really broad.

5 years ago

Topped her today. Wanted to wait until there was a good amount of stem growth past the 5th node before clipping so it’s not as likely to split when things get heavier.

5 years ago

Loving the look of this lady. Super unique look and beefy stalk because of the bonsai I did early on.

5 years ago

Just got back from vacation and the little lady is killing it. Bonsai has made her grow some crazy fat stalk. Getting close to time for topping her as she’s on her 5th node.

5 years ago

She blew up over night! Had to reposition the second bend on her again to help center the growth in the pot.

5 years ago

Growing at a nice 90 degree angle towards the light. Have had to readjust the hold downs every couple days to help her stay towards the center of the pot. This early low stress training will be crucial for keeping it low and stout later on.

5 years ago

Day after the second hard bonsai bend. The goal of this bend was to get the plant back towards the center of the pot to help receive maximum light and air flow. Hoping this early training will help to keep her nice and short in my box.

5 years ago

Dolly got so heavy under her new growth I had to put another nice bend on her.

5 years ago

Plant is showing nice new growth under her bonsai.

Sprouting more leaves. Still bending under the bonsai and growing towards the lights!

Growing towards the light under after the bonsai.

Start of training. Bonsai to help grow low.

3” tall sprout. Will bonsai in next few days to help train to growing environment.

5 years ago

2” tall sprout.

First sign of sprout. Transplanted to 3 gallon fabric pot. Growing medium is a homemade mixture with a 5.5ph soil base. Added nutrients of dolomite lime, bat guano, blood and bone meal, and perlite for help with drainage. Growing in homemade box with CFL lights.
