Great questions.
The purple is relative indoors in high heat, but, it does seem to be bringing out purple right about the same time frame it's been getting cold at nights.
All the lower larf isn't cleaned up because lately I've been busier than id like to be.
I just finished my shortbread grow and have no help with trimmers.
So I have had to balance job work, outdoor, and indoor.
All of my time I focus on my indoor testing, so by the time I finished cropping and trimming it, the lower nugs on my outdoor have already fattened up so I would rather keep it there for yield.
Plus, not sure if you enjoy hash, But I love nug run hash oil. And I can't afford to go spend 60 a gram at the shops for it. so the larf is about to be my best friend
On the plant temperature aspect, the more leaves, the better come late season when it's really cold at nights.
Some people use plants on walls when designing thermal barriers for buildings.
But my honest beliefs of mold are, every single person in oregon that tells me they have bud rot, water every day.
I don't water every day, I just wait for the soil top layer to be dryish, and then I water.
Sometimes if it's cloudy and rainy, I won't water for a week, sometimes more.
Using regular fox farm bag soil.
The people who think these watering methods are odd, usually are the guys that deal with bud rot every single year.
Such a big issue every year, luckily, I've never had to deal with botrytis. I've witness more than I can count. Seems like every year I know someone with a destroyed crop
I'm an indoor guy too though.
