Mid grade+sugar water=pinkish purple dank buds?I'm lost

Only grew twice and each time I used sugar water and the hair on the buds turn pinkish purple. Is this the sugar water? I also used bird poop an used merical grow a few times and the dirt from my fire pit. The seeds come from mid grade lol. My buddy use to sell a s**t ton of it. Also he was a big time stoner. He saved all his seeds all in a gallon zip lock bag. He gave me the bag half full(talk about good friend) and I used those mid grade seeds to grow those buds. I never cured the buds but they got me high like loud would and had a nice taste despite the buds not being cured. Can anybody explain if it's what im doing or is this normal for buds to grow pinkish purple hairs. An yeah I use to smoke with my buddy obviously but the buds the seeds came from never looked that good or smoke all that good. What's the deal?

Nothing to do with the sugar water, is all in the genetics of the seeds for the pink hairs. Decent grab for some bag seed!

I believe the sugar is for trichome production. Look up feeding Molasses to Cannabis.

Thanks for the input yall, I don't care for fluffy buds so I wrap the string around them to make them more dense.

It wasn't the sugar water, although i do reccomend molasses.

Colors can be enhanced with fertilizers high in phosphorus, night-time temperature drops, genetics, and i believe a few dyes exist.
Genetics are very important but you can take amateur seeds and turn them into chronic if you grow it better.
It's kind of a cool variation from using the stems or chopsticks and making tie-stick

After reading about the Thai stick article on Wikipedia, I think I'm going to try that next season. I had somebody offer me to make oil but I turned them down bec I don't have all the stuff you would need to smoke it properly. But if I knew that about the sticks I would have taken them up on there offer....thanks man

This probably haves something to with the molasses or not. But after I clip all the buds off it I removed the plants from the ground carefully,took them home sprayed of all the remaining dirt off. Then I used the dirt from my leaf pile. An put it in some pots and replanted them. The plants still had some baby buds on them,I was trying to get the baby buds on the bottom of the plant to grow little bit more. I put them inside an waited a couple weeks finally they were bigger. I dried them out then smoke them an I discovered that they had a watermelon taste I was like wtf. Then I started thinking lol, I remembered I threw a watermelon in with the leafs I got the dirt from. The melon was in the pile for a few months. Even the leafs an the steams tasted like it. Taste so good I saved the big steams to chew on.
So many wtf moments sorry about that. Really don't know much about growing an I find it amusing.

As far as I've ever understood, the sugar is not for the plant itself, but for the beneficial organisms in the soil to feed off of.

There's much better things to use than sugar and/or molasses to feed the little ones.
