Ok, I was waiting for you to put yours in to flowering. I will put mine in tomorrow as well. I have a perpetual garden so it will fight for light for the next two weeks but it should come out just fine. It's my first time growing purps so I'm excited.
How long were you in veg again. I missed it somewhere but saw something about an extra week. I vegged for 30 days, is that not long enough? Plants are about 7" high, fim'd,

Hey man, good looking plant ya got there. Sounds like she went through a little stress but is growing big and strong now. If you're interested in FIMMING and other forms of training, look into LST too! It's a little more work, but it really pays off. If you want a good example, check my journal with my two Bubbas. They turned into monstrous bushes lol. Course, it probably helped that I vegged them for like, an entire month too haha.
Good luck on yours, can't wait to see how she turns out.

everything still looks good man. have you turned that HPS on though? you never mentioned anything about it (if you did and i missed it-sorry) I'm guessing you did though from the yellow tint from the pictures.

Looking good man. Have you ever thought about tying down those 2 main shoots?
Since this is a purple thread, have any of you guys ever tried Ceres Purple? I have one going now it's about two weeks old. Don't have the room for a full indoor grow, so I'll be moving it outside in a few days. Seems like a nice little compact plant. Can't wait to see how it responds to the natural sun!

yea i was skeptical of tieing my plants over too at first. but man... IMO it deffinatly helps. makes shorter internodes and bigger buds in my experience.

you know your plants better than anyone, I say for your very first grow just let nature do her thing. If your interested in some training on your plant to allow some more flowers to get bigger I'd be glad to help. Just need a couple of paper clips and string. If they aren't real rigid and stiff stems they should bend. You just want to bend them slowly form the very tip of the plant towards the side of your pot, see how they feel. It will give you an idea of whether you would be comfortable doing something like this or not. By grabbing just the tip of the shoot and bending it very slowly towards the side of your pot the very worst thing that could happen is you break it somewhere near the top. Just pull it like you would a nipple, firm, yet gentle and slow.

Grow it, cure it, smoke it and repeat.
