Trippaul Threat (PdN x BMJ) Community Grow

This is a dedicated grow log for Tristen's awesome cross, which I
have been growing out since 2014.  I'll start with a bit of history and
some photos documenting what's happened so far.
 
In January of 2014, Tristen (Trippa) sent me a little care package of seeds.
In the package were two generations of a cross he had made, which he just 
called 'Mystery Cross, F1' and 'Mystery Cross, F2'.  
 
Here's Trippa's Mystery Cross seedlings in February of 2014:

 

 
Both generations showing the purple foliage characteristic since the beginning.
 
Up close look at Trippa's Mystery Crosses, F1 and F2.  Both culled to a single
plant after the photo taken, so I only had one plant of each generation:

thanks they're nothing like what you guys have but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.  looking forward to those purple pods and seeing what the final color is.

I'm having caterpiller issues this year, over a dozen dispatched so far, but they keep coming. I actually began believing that the two PdeN X BmaJ plants on my deck were unappetizing to the little bastiges, until last night, that is:

I even invested $8 in a UV flashlight to hunt these guys, but found that some worms just don't glow...

Yet I endeavor to percevere...

I think there are different wave length uv lamps, some things show up better under a different wavelength.[emoji848]

Reading the product description for this flashlight leaves no doubt that English is *NOT* the native language for the author.

A little BT powder, AKA Dipel dust works wonders for the bastages...

[BDASPNY]

Thank you. Thats a huge compliment after seeing all those beauties youve grown.

I dust the plants, and some gets in-on the soil. Which is good for the ones that hatch from eggs burrowed in the soil. Of course they have to consume the BT..

Hey, Rich. I really dig the color, even though
they are more yellow than white. I am a little
disappointed in the size. I think it must have
to do with the small pots they are in.

I cant wait to see what your plants produce, buddy!

They are going nuts...
 
Also out of my two violets the one is showing that incredible fasciation!!! I let her go and she went straight up on once side while the other galaxy spiral apical stem side stalled for a bit and then broke away from its spiral to branch out and is now following the other up to the stratosphere! Very cool plants man. Just wow.
