CFL Blackberry Indica/Sativa (Pics)

blackberry is the next strain im growing. i have 5 feminized seeds. I'm looking VERY forward to it.

question:
Are you going to lower your temperatures for the last 2 weeks to 40-50 degrees F?

If you don't you will get mauve colored buds. IF you do you will get DEEP purple buds.

Ok well, since I've been being lazy, here are some updates ;)

The pollen I've been collecting:


The Male plant is starting to turn purple...just saw it today when I went to pluck more sacs..was like 'woa, not expecting that...'..haha forgot I bought Blackberry for a little while there ;p


Aaand my ridiculous greenhouse, haha...

You cant see them but there are horizontal 1ft beams on the bottom of those two verticles on the sides of the bin...I made it a bit smaller than the bin so it sort of clings to it, but I think I will also drill/tape it onto it when I get it out there.

Ok so...Sorry for the late update but I don't have cable/internet anymore. Took me a while to get a wifi cracker from a friend of mine...
So, the one indoors has some kind of problem. I assumed it was Phosphorous deficiency because after moving it indoors it lost the Vigoro supplements. Now that I've added the FoxFarm nutes the light green-ness is going away. I also think I have mites, because of the eaten away leaves and small white spots, so I sprayed the leaves down.
Plant a couple of days ago:



And today...



(Was walking through the kitchen to put the spray back outside, and I found some inspiration on the ceilings... ;) )




^^ You can see some of the leaves turning purple, there.

Thats crazy! Im subscribed to 2 journals and both of them were talkin about ladybugs. I was tellin the other guy to buy a Praying Mantis. My pops used to use them back in the day. Cool videos of them on weed plants on youtube..

Well, lady bugs suck. Lmao..they are retarded. Out of the 15 or so I had collected around my house, only 3 haven't killed themselves in the CFLs -_-

So you think nute burn? The problem started when I began to use plain water, and now it is going away as I put FF bloom in the water, dunno. I think the pellets of Vigoro are gone since I transfered, so there were hardly any nutes, I'll try a flush though, can't really hurt it...This grow is gonna take a while -_- I'm thinking another 20-30 days...

Ok so, I went and checked on the outdoor girl today and she is fucking healthy as can be. To say the least, I'm a bit pissed off. I would have thought the one indoor would be healther due to not being fucking freezing...but no...The biggest change I can think of is the fact that I changed from the Vigoro to the FF water nutes, and I'm using tap water instead of rainwater....So I put Vigoro into the soil indoors and I will water with tap that has been let out to de-chlorinate ;)
