Dubi is suggesting this plant is a Purple Haze cross. This plant is from a batch of Tropical Sativa standard mix seeds from the boys at ACE.
It was suggested a week ago this plant could have another 5 weeks of flowering. I'm not so sure after looking at the trichs up close. I don't care for any amber in my trichs, just milky and opaque. It's looking like I may be harvesting soon, maybe another week.
This plant has been an absolute thrill to watch. It continues to spit white pistils and doesn't seem to want to slow down. It has stopped plumping up and some of the pistils are now dying. At one point, this plant was sucking down a little less than a half-quart of nutrient solution per day. She's since slowed down and has stopped packing on the weight.
I can't stop taking pictures of her. I don't know if I'll ever get the chance to grow another one like her so I'm trying to document as well as possible.
Enjoy!!

As a devotee of deep sats, I salute you - and all the other fearless, stalwart (and somewhat patient) souls that undertake this Great Art. Thanks for the great pics and shared experience.

Awww, shucks, you guys are the best. Thanks for the nice comments.

Not sure it's patience or stupidity growing a single, small plant like this. My math tells me this plant will have cost me approximately $7,591.13 USD in equipment, electricity and nutrients. This works out to somewhere around $3795.56 per US ounce.

Better be some damn fine stash!

Better get some more plants in there and drop your average price per OZ. :biggrin:
Great job they look mouth watering.
Peace GG

What price greatness? That said...on to the next!!

I am kind of itching to see what the ACE fellas have in store for me in the next round of germinations. I'll pull seeds from the same group I pulled the last ones. Maybe I'll get lucky twice.

Beautiful looking plant. Looks special for sure. That plant really did some swelling up in the last week or so. It sure is a Purple Haze cross, I'd say a week of nice flushing then harvest her. Nice photos, the trichs really do help show how close she is. If you like a more clear, uplifting high a week for sure. If you like more trippy, mind blowing high I'd let her go another 2 weeks then go from there.

By the way, not to be mean but how could this one single plant cost you over 7,500 dollars to grow? Kinda confused about this one. Thanks.

Well, Dr.King, that was purely exaggeration for emphasis. Keep in mind, this plant has been under my care since July! That's a ton of electricity, nutrients, tweaking equipment and so on...
I'll probably only see about 2 oz's out of her. I have no clue how much it actually cost me but I can feel pretty confident in assuming it's more then my normal run. I couldn't be happier with the results so far. This is exactly what I was looking for when I started this several years ago. I really missed the pure Sativas from my days as an 80's heavy metal stoner. I never realized how far from that buzz I had drifted by smoking so many hybrids. The effects from these clean Sativas is what I've been missing for 35 years. If this plant took a full year to mature, I'm okay with that. I get the feeling it's going to be worth it.
