Guys, any comments on this one plant turning purple? Temps above 16C and i think I put enough phosphorous in via liquid bat shit (guano 1-9-1)

Elephanta Caves: Stage II - relocation:

<<<<<< The Temple of Ganja >>>>>

I'm building out a proper grow space now. Any input would be appreciated guys, I opened a new thread here
Cave II.jpg
  • Under stair space:
    • 42"/1060mm height
    • 35"/900mm width
    • 56"/1420mm depth
  • ziggurat style recessed rear wall
    • perforated diffusion panel between grow space and a false cavity below the lower steps > for future CO2 generation system
  • lighting
    • 250W MH in cooltube in rear
    • 400W MH/HPS (SonTAgro) in Sunsystems Lowrider II aircooled hood
  • ventilation
    • Extraction: 6" 270cfm/460m3h canfan pulling through carbon filter and 7.5m of 6" ducting to heat diffusion chamber with exhaust vents to outside
    • separate HID cooling: 6" axial computer fan drawing fresh cave air and pushing through 6" cooltube and SunSystem LowRiderII aircooled hood, exhausting back into surrounding cave
    • passive air intake through inlet at cave mouth
  • oscillating fan (23cm) for air circulation
  • dehumidifier (250W, 16L/24hr capacity)
Future upgrade plan:
? Use carbon filter and 6" as recirculating scrubber in a sealed cave?
? Add 8" fan and scrubber system for extraction
? Add CO2

Taylor, full moon harvest (but it was cloudy)

This is it the end for this grow report, except for a cured smoke report which will come in a few weeks.

I might have over dried the first two girls - 11 days hang dry. I bagged them when the stems snapped in stages, not straight into pieces. Now humidity probe is only reading 45-50% in the zip-loc bag and the box they in. Ambient RH is supposed to be 70%, I don't get it. Heater has been on and room kept about 17-20C. Buds feel too dry, and crumble a bit, but my grinder is gunked up and won't turn so thats good.

I miss the smell from a few days ago...

Jar them up man. They should still sweat out some and become moist.

It's the slowness that's the secret IMO.

Taylor was jarred at 59% RH after 4 day hang dry/2 days zip lock bag - so she might cure a little. the other two have lost their beautiful aromas but still get the job done :blsmoke:
