Best purple strain and where to git it?

Gbuddy said:

Depends on the Strain mostly.
But a good rule of Thumb is 4-6 weeks.
A good plan is to flower the ladies 10-14 days earlier than the males.
If you want the entire plant seeded you let the male with the girls until all budhair start to look crumled and change color from white to brownish redish.
For a 8 weeks flowering strain that would mean 4-5 weeks for the seeds to get ready.
maybe you want to let em go for a extra week to be sure.

A positive indicator for you that most seeds are ripe is when the first seeds start to fall out of the buds.
Color is no good indicator in my book.lol
Got "Blond" seeds a couple of times but had no problems with germination etc.

And btw. I envy you!
You are in the position to select from a good number of males!
If you only got one male to work with, its just like playing roulette.
Using a well selected late male plant gives you a way better chance for a goal.

Hope it helps a lil bit Bro!
Have fun selecting and seedmaking!
Its a sooooooooo ultra nice hobby!!!

Peace

The Prime Crystal buds dried very dense and Heavy... more so than other three strains I grew at the same time

I have a beautiful purple gdp from grand daddy purps. Popped a ten pack and got a couple different phenos. The one I’ve kept is purple no matter the temp as long as the budsites get light. It’s knock your dick in the dirt potency as well. Tastes like you would think purps should. Like grape candy with some fuely skunk in the back. Major nighttime knockout stuff. Only issue is she’s slow to veg and zero stretch in flower so it needs a loooing veg and need to fill it up to make sure you get enough. Finishes in 8 weeks though which helps. Also not a easy clone and any stress she will throw funky three bladed leaves for a while. But I still have people asking me about it all the time and so she stays because it’s just that good.

Thanks for the info you know the reason I never considered that is because back when I was MMJ before I started and growing again I don't know 94-95 I got some at the dispensary and it sucked but I think that's because 8 out of 10 things they sold sucks

.. now I gotta put GDP on my short list, so it's even more muddled ?! LOL thanks again for the info!

I'll figure it out eventually, will be lot of fun trying! I'm going to pick 4 purple blue or black strains and give 'em a run, going to pick a couple of popular strains and a couple of more offbeat ones!

Big autocorrect thing ^^^ was trying to say back when I was MMJ, and before I started growing again, first time since 94 or 95 when I quit.. I think is what I was saying ?

Anyway I got GDP at the dispensary and it was Dreadful! ..but almost everything I got there was shit too so now I'm going to definitely consider it, thanks for the recommendation

..would you recommend getting it from original GDP, or where would you get it ?

Hey you Guys mention Mendo Purps....
Maybe this is on my list for 2019.

Where to buy is the next question. Or is anybody out there with some F2's?

Anybody ever tested Jordan of the Island`s gear?

GDP is notorious for not knowing what his crosses are and just letting males flower and open pollinate what’s nearby. I know he’s had some fire in the past, but I wouldn’t count on GDP’s stuff. This thread goes into a lot of it.

MaddFarmer’s Purple Rarity is an Urkle backcross, and he’s got the real deal, and imo Urkle > GDP. CSI Humboldt also has a bunch of Urkle and Mendo Purps fem crosses, including S1’s. I would go with those if looking for the old school purps.

CSI...I grew humboldt purple snow and had 2 phenos. I liked the snow pheno more. The urkle pheno was a bitch to trim and barely yielded. No nanners and I stressed them the fuck out. Good grapey indicas. The snow pheno was creamier. I have a pack of his mendo purp x Bubba that I will run through eventually. Same genetics as obama kush. Nspecta runs lots of ladies for selection Just find what purple crosses you want.

MADD farmer for regs. That’s a good call. Listened to the potcast and sounds like the work stuff/take their time. Haven’t grown their stuff yet
