Hey Shmokin.. Nice thread Bro......Cant wait to see them both finished up.....Looks like you are doing an excellent job on both of those Ladies.....
So you like the GDP better.....Thats Kool....Havent got the chance to grow the GDP yet, but i just finished an Urkle a few weeks ago, And I am really impressed with this girl.....The Potency really surprised me, I thought she was going to be pretty purple bud with just average potency but she was Nice and Potent.....She will definately stay in my Garden at least for a few more rounds...

Here is that Urkle at day 54 flower......I chopped her down at day 56 and she was still nice and Potent....I will let my next Urkle go for 63-65 days flower next run....She was vegged with 42 watt CF's Just like all my other plants are...Thanks for this thread bro....Cant wait till the next update...~ograskal

nice pics ograskal!!!
if you let them go a bit longer and crank the AC they really purple up,....I also have a buddy that swears by throwing a block of dry ice on his trays the last couple days to get them really dark purple.

Thanks HYDROJUNKIE.....Yeah, I dont have an AC to crank up but it should start gettin alot colder up here in the High Desert now that winter is here...the lowest my Cabby got when i was flowerin the Urkle was 69 degrees when the lights went off and she still got a little Purp on her...How cold does it have to get for her to get real Purple ?????~ograskal

Those buds look pretty friggin' purple to me. My night time temps are dropping to the low 60's. Problem is daytime temps are high 60's - low 70's. I have never had a problem w/ the room being to cold. I'm thinking it may delay harvest. Other than that things are moving right along. Pics tomorrow.

You can see a difference in bud structure already. The GDP is a little denser.

Shmokin! Very nice! How long are you going to let yours go?
I got to get me some "urkle"! :yummy:

peace, Willie! :sasmokin:

They usually go 9 weeks but they may get a few more days because its been cold in there. Temps dropped below 60 in there last night. I shut off the fan for the air cooled lights so that should help.

hello there :joint:
ahhhhhhh OGRA now thats the FN neon orange color i'm talking about my friend, i cut my urks this morning and there quite a bit more purple then those but i think the NEON orange brings the purple to the front BIG TIME....

ummmm there no where near dry and i'm sure the color mixer will change just a bit when they do but damn they look so nice right now....

and yes these urkle nugs are veryvery hard and there still on the plant, usualy you dont get this hard of bud untill its been removed and dried and a bit cured, but not the urkle the buds are like this at chop WOWWWWWW....

i will get some pics up after they dry abit :yoinks: :yoinks: ......i deseeded a small bud this morning that i took last week and it spit out 10 very nice looking seeds very mature looking with nice strippings, this should prove to be a very good cross indeed....

shmokin, beautiful GDP my friend enjoy your run with her buddy..
peace :joint:

Let me know what she yields, Jaws. I was just browsing your thread. She's a big one. What king of light was she under.

hello shmokin :joint:
they were grown under 1 400 mh and 1 400 hps, vegg for 40days and flowered for 55.....one is all bud the other was heavyly pollenated but is still going to yield nice for a seeded plant, if i were too guess i'd say three dry oz from the two.....that will work for me seeing one was seeded....
peace bro :joint:

Yeah, I helped a pal trim his Urkles recently...he grew his plants in coco coir and I wouldn't be surprised if he got three ounces dry off each plant. Rock-hard, potent, porno-pretty buds. I was impressed.

Evidently the same stuff's being sold in socal under the name "God's Gift."

That sound great, NPK. I know there is another purp strain from Nor-Cal by that name. I haven't heard a whole lot about it. It hasn't hit the main stream yet.

That could be true, shmokin (about a separate strain called God's Gift). Another possibility is that the reseller of the Urkle just gave the stuff a sexier name for marketing purposes. Whatever the name though, it was gorgeous, amazingly tasty stuff.

Shmokin,
of course cross gdp with grape ape. If you live in the east bay california where it exsists in seed form, the only place known. check it out in the cannabible 3.
