I’ve been growing for 15 years and have grown many purple strains, but this is the first time I see pistils this color this early in development. She’s gorgeous. (Strain: Nori Cake by Greenhouse seeds)

Problem is that this state is very brief. Once you go 12/12 this state last for around 2 weeks, w3 to w5 approximately. To keep them alive for a longer time, you’d need to keep them in a vegetative state by giving them light for 18+ hours a day so that they don’t go into bloom. And in a vegetative state, you don’t get any of the pretty colors.
I don’t mind brief glory :)
I’m used to our lilies and crocus being only briefly in flower. And I don’t mind growing from seed, so the life span is just a matter of keeping some started ahead of when one is going to die, afaik.
