Greetings, Soma...

I posted this ? in another (older) thread, but decided to post it in it's own just in case you don't see it elsewhere..

I've tried to PM you a couple times with the following question but can't seem to get a response... maybe the messages never made it to you... anyway - here's my question:

We all know that Lavendar is an excellent strain - ALL phenos taste amazing & are very potent (with a much better yield than you seem to describe, btw)... but I would like to ask a question that's beside these points.

Some Lav phenos don't turn purple at all... this is an issue many people have brought up... and as you know, I had the problem, too...

(NOTE: Soma was very friendly and helped me with that problem - he stands behind his work (always) and is very fair! Always trust Soma for very unique genetics AND to take care of his peeps.)...

anyway, regarding fem'd Lav coloration - I would like to know what can be expected of the 100% female Lavendar.
Should temp and nute conditions be "tweaked" in order to coax the colors out of them, or (with the FEM'd version) were you able to isolate and breed with a female that exibited strong coloration under "normal" conditions? In other words, can the 100% fem'd Lavendar be expected to look like the one and only (beautiful!) picture of it that has always been shown on yours and other vendor sites?
ALSO - have these fem'd beans been tested to determine their coloration consistancy?

Thanks in advance for your answer....

If you lower temperatures to 60-65 during the last week and a half of flowering, all lavender strains should become colorful. Air Conditioning always works for this.
