Question for anyone who has grown OG Kush

Hey guys. I am growing OG Kush and I wanted to know if this strain normally has purple stems. (First time growing OG Kush) So if any of you have grown it before please let me know. Also let me know if you encountered any problems growing this strain.

Reason why I ask is I am experiencing some problems. I already have a thread on that though. You can check it out here

https://www.rollitup.org/marijuana-plant-problems/378751-need-second-opinon-og-kush.html

So...

You created a thread to point to another thread you started?

You want us to post in this thread or the other thread that already has two pages of answers?

No. I posted this thread to find out some info on the OG Kush.

I posted the link so if people wanted to try and diagnose my problem I did not have to write it all over again.

And no, people have not answered the question in that thread, because that thread is for marijuana plant problems. But they have answered questions concerning the problem I am experiencing The question I am asking here is about the strain....Smartass.

So nobody has grown this strain before that can offer me some information other then the smartass remark from Kulong?

Common problems with this strain?

Are purple stems normal on this strain?

It is very temperamental?

Im growing OG Kush now and im not having any problems except for one got root bound in 3 gal pot so I transplanted into a 5 gal. Looked like it wasnt going to recover from the stress at first, but eventually bounced back well. They pretty much have grown without problems. As for the purple stems, mine dont so really not sure if its common or not. Im in SoCal and these are potted outdoors.Well,Good Luck

Thanks for your response money. I talked to someone earlier today and they said there OG Kush indoors always had purple stems. I would just like to hear this from a few more people then I won't worry. Yeah mine went into a little transplant shock also. well 1 out of 2 did. Its weird because its only 1 that is displaying these problems. And its the 1 that didn't go into shock from transplanting. The one that did go into shock has no problems what so ever.

+ Rep for responding.

Anyone else who can give me some info on how there OG Kush grew went I will give you Rep. Thanks

Purple stems usually points at light frequencies(that doesn't just mean hrs.), radical temp changes(hot then cold in hrs.) in the enviroment. Do you keep your plantpots on a concrete floor? Just curious.

Purple stems can also be a Phosphorus Def. No my plants are in a flowering room I built. Its at least a foot off the ground. And usually the temp changes are Low 78F High 84F

I was thinking that the deficiencies may have been caused by the rootbed being to cool to react properly such as when the lights go on. I have a vent pipe bringing the conopy air under my rootbed 24/7 keeping the entire plant the same temp.

Yeah, that actually does happen. Not what is happening with mine though. I believe I have the problem pinpointed.

I still want to hear from more people about there experience growing OG Kush. Money and I can't be the only people growing OG.

+Rep Bird for the response.

Best to you and don't forget to fill us in on any details that you may find that will be important for other growers. thanks

Thanks man, but after seeing my girls today when the lights came on the problem plant is really bad now. About 5 more leafs have developed problems. So either the Epsom salt didn't work, or it's going to take a few more days to work, or that wasn't the problem to begin with. I really don't know. At the rate this is happening my plant will be dead in 2 weeks. I just look at it as lesson learned, Don't take cuttings or plants from other people, it can just turn out to be a huge headache.

If it does get better I will let you guys know. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

if you are talking about thin purple like pin stripes on angles of trunk and solid on fan leaves stems is norm for some in genetics

Thanks man, that's exactly what I see. Good to know that its just the strain. At least I know its not that then.

+ Rep for answering my question.

Yes dude I had the tahoe og cut before and they were always a little purpleish and darker green than my other strains. nice potent stuff. good luck!

Good to hear the same thing from multiple people. Yeah its really good smoke. I have had it before and just recently when I got the cuttings he gave me a Half Ounce of OG Kush and Endless Sky. + Rep for the response.

I got a little update for you guys too.

I talked to the guy I got the cuttings from and guess what, He is having the same exact problem. So the problems did start with him. I asked him a shitload of questions to find he never flushed his plants. So I am guessing its a buildup of salts. This can cause nutrient lockout. So because of the lockout it is probably lacking Mag and Nitrogen. What sucks is because I fed it the other day with the Epsom salt and some nutes. Doing this probably made the problem that much worse. Now I gotta wait until the soil dry's out and do a good flush.

I've never had any problems with my og kush reevaluate privada I've grown indoors and out and they always have purple stems

There are 2 dominant gene pairs Pp and Cc control late-season anthocyanin pigmentation (purple color) in Cannabis. If P is present alone, only the leaves of the plant (under the proper environmental stimulus) will exhibit accumulated anthocyanin pigment and turn a purple color. If C is present alone, the plant will remain green through out its life cycle despite environmental conditions. If both are present, however, the calyxes of the plant will also exhibit accumulated anthocyanin and turn purple as the leaves do.
when I grew og kush it was sensative to heat. The medical strain I grew og kush x big bud was even more sensative to environmental conditions.

I have been having this problem with both my OG Kush and OG Kush #18. I know it's a magnesium deficiency because as soon as I got some Cal/Mag the problem went away.

Hey man, just started geminating my og kush today but I'll let you know about the stems. I've had it happen to a lot of mine; I heard it can be onset of magnesium deficiency, or could also change with cold temps. I can't wait to see how the og turns out.
