Northern Lights Nirvana first grow

Im in week 6 or 7 in flowering. The leaves on the buds are turning purple. Is this normal? And does this mean that it is ready to be harvested?

Hi I'm also growing this but I'm only in the first week. If it's any help to you, any photographs I have seen of this strain, it has purplish buds.

temps???? did you look in the strain guide about what you are growing? I have pot turn purple, but only in the winter and I do it on purpose by lowering the temps.:tiphat:
 
yes it is normal, a lot are for colder temps but some turn colors regardless of temperature and it probably means that it is getting close, probably 1-2 weeks left

A true purple strain will turn purple under normal temps. A lot of them will turn purple, or other colors, if the temps get gold enough.

I geuss they'll sometimes turn purple as they leach the phosphorous out of the leaf getting ready to die. I had one out of 6 all in the same system turn all sorts of purple a couple grows ago, haven't seen a purple one since. Wished I had taken a clone.

Come to think of it, I've seen some that were extremely dark green to the point you'd swear it was purple or almost black even.

Some of the Nirvana strains turn purple on their own.I have grown this strain a few times and only a few turned purple on me,really nice looking plants!but the ones that turned color on me I didnt like because they were weak.I had one from the first grow that was very short and had little smell and flavor,it was green in color,that was a very potent plant.I also had a blue mystic on the second run that was also very potent,no purple at all on this plant,one hit and I was high for 4 hours.Did not clone any because I can grow only once a year.
Should finish in around 56 to 70 days.Nirvana has some nice strains but have to hunt alot for them.Good luck and safe groing:tumbleweed:
