This one cut i have has been cloned a few times.
The mother, grown out twice, never had purple.
The clones and subsequent clones are all purple. It’s also been grown by a few other people. theirs were purple since they had the clone.
Also, the original didn’t stretch, but each consecutive clone is getting much stretchier.
Both grown with the same nutes system and setup. Maybe there is something i am doing differently that I haven’t/can’t account for, but the first two times I flowered the mother, it looked very different. The smell and smoke is the same though.
The mother:
The 3 or 4th gen clone (the purple one on the right):
What is happening…is this clone not going to be usable soon if I keep cutting clones off clone? It’s getting really stretchy…it’s sort of a become a problem.

If your worried about genetic drift if you can get the mother to springtime like 2 weeks after mothers day depending on where you are on the globe dig a hole outside and pop her in let her reconnect to mother earth and take cuts off her when she grows in a bit.It recharges them a bit and they straighten out a lot.Ive had cuts over 5 years and they still put out like when i first got them.Make sure to spray cuts dowm and keep them seperate to make sure you dont bring in hitch hikers

I coukd take a cutting and send it to three different people all over the states ams once it acclimates it will look like you almost have 3 different plants

Differences in day vs night temps can impact stretch and coloring a great deal. If you were using something like a pulse grow monitor you would probably be able to see changes in temp and humidity aligning with different growth patterns for your particular cut.
Are you seeing more purpling in the winter when your grow room gets colder during lights off? And possibly more stretch in the summer when the room isn’t able to cool off as much during night cycles?

the first time i grew it i harvested when it in the winter, but ya, that older pic i think was in the spring or early summer. I’ll need to do some digging to find that original, but it wasn’t purple.

I gave the cut to two different people. At least their first round, it mostly looks the same. one guy has crappy lights, so his looked slightly off. Maybe it would it would change over generations.
I got my first Texada Timewarp cut years ago from SC when i got it up here it was tall and almost like Frankie over the years she ended up being a more squat 4 footer that threw iut thicker buds.Took about 2 years.She never did go back to that
