This week has been great.I'm glad that I was able to pull the plant when I needed to. The weather out here isn't always the best coming towards the end of October. How ever i handle it the best we can. What ive learned to do is wet trim before hang dry. Heres some phots of these glossing nugs. Iknkw ill lose a bitin water weight but im happy none the less. Fire 🔥 This has been a great grow, I learned a lot from Growing out here in new mexico. It was amazing to be able to train these plants 4 into one using training techniques. LST, HST, Defolation & topping all play a roll. It is fun to learn and sharpen my skills. I hope everyone enjoys my diary. Thank you so much Divine seeds. I appreciate the free seeds and the friendly community competition 👌 There's a lot of good growers outthere and I wanna learn from all. Much love ❤️ I'll be back with a smoke review soon

Welcome to week 10 / Flowering week 4 🌱✨ The ladies are developing well. The blumat system is running but still needs adjustment. I did some more defoliation and sometimes water them by hand if they get too dry. I got the main colas out of the hotspot of the lamp. Also I reduced nutrients to half the amount since I switched to constant watering with the blumat system. Happy growing 🧙‍♂️

Week 4:Got the new mammoth nova 720W light installed. Trying out the green spectrum. A few reviews said it has the ability to penetrate to the lower nodes because of the green. It’s definitely way hotter than my 300w Evo4 so having to adjust some things to manage heat. Outside temps 68-70 inside temps 75-77. I can get them down lower but have to open doors and keep fans at near max. Have it set at 8/10 at about 24 inches of height and so far adjusting well. Plants are starting to frost over and smells are mixed. 1/4 has a very skunky pheno the rest are way more pleasant and fruity. Excited to see the colors start to bleed through as the leaves are already showing signs of purple.

Day 154 03/10/24 Thursday De-chlorinated tap water flushing today with flawless finish. Absolutely gutted... She has decided to develop seeds and Hermie on me 🤦‍♂️ Disappointed after such a long investment grow 😔 But we move... I will flush her rest of week and possibly next week depending on the seed to bud ratio. Frustrated to say the least 🤣 Picture update 💚 Day 155 04/10/24 Friday She hasn't got any new noticeable beans yet, only spotted 5 in total, 1 in each top in the far corner, it's so strange. Any advice or thoughts on what may have caused this please comment 🙏💚 Picture and video update 😎 Day 157 06/10/24 Sunday (End of week) De-chlorinated tap water with Plagron PK13-14 to just help with nutrients. Again upon looking today I can't see any noticeable new growth of seeds, and she is developing new pistils and bud growth again all across her tops, thank FU£& 😆🙏💚

Man, it's been a crazy week. These past few days have been brutal – seriously cold with this crazy humidity. I don't know about you, but I'm sick of the chills and the way my skin feels all sticky. It's been a struggle, but I'm finally getting on top of things. I think I've figured out a good routine to dry things out around here, so hopefully, I'll be feeling a lot more comfortable soon. My three Bubble OG plants are looking awesome. Two of them are super tall, and it's gonna be crazy when they're done. I can already tell they're going to have huge buds. The little one might be short, but it's so dense, it looks like it's just stacked with buds all the way down.

All seems to be going well. I'm watering twice a week with 80ml per plant. Using mainly plain water with a little Fish Mix. If growth is strong this week, I'll look potting into 5 gallon pots next week. I've begun some small training with my fingers to keep the stalks malleable and see what shape I want. Once they're in their final pots I'll start training with clips.

Big Bud Autoflower grew great till right at bulking in flowering. I misjudged the feed, and was light causing her ph to swing up and just happen to be right during bulking. So lost some bulk. I will revist her one day. She has a great smell, and layer of frost. Still gotva lot of bud that smells great and looks very potent. Will be back with results once she is dry, and processed. Thank you Viparspectra, and Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds. 🌱🤜🤛🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the likes, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel. There is a harvest video on my YouTube channel. It won't let me upload it here. Happy growing everyone 🌱 🌱🌱

Had a couple of the stems which were almost drooping on the ground due to the weight of the buds, so decided to harvest those two branches today. Also, this week I did a bit more research on when to harvest. I had been waiting for the trichomes to begin to turn amber, but after reading this article: https://www.growweedeasy.com/harvest, I decided to harvest when the trichomes were cloudy. Experts say that the amber trichomes give a more relaxing effect, but I was growing this plant for daytime use. Looked at it under my digital microscope and decided to pull the trigger on the whole plant. Plus, the neighbors were starting to notice the smell. Final height - 104" - 8 1/2 feet - 2.64 meters. Not good. Was concerned that someone would hop the fence and pilfer my plant. Harvested her at 35 weeks - 281 days. Grow diaries really needs to expand the weeks available for us outdoor growers. Started her indoors in Feb. Transplanted outside on April 7th.

The plants have made it through their first full week since transplant. Other than the initial watering, I only watered once on Day 5. They seem to be holding up well despite temperatures being a bit lower than ideal. I’m keeping PPFD around 250, which seems to be working fine. Lighting remains at 18 hours on, 6 off for consistency. Root development is progressing—smaller plastic pots are starting to show roots, but I’m still waiting for root visibility in the fabric pot before switching on the Autopot Tray2Grow. Starting preventative pest management today with Central Coast Garden Products Green Cleaner to stay ahead of any potential issues. Will monitor root progress and adjust as needed. D

Im Allgemeinen gesprochen, das System ist soweit ganz gut eingependelt. Ich bewege mich tagsüber zwischen 24 -26 ° C Lufttemperatur, die Erde kommt bis auf ungefähr 21,5 ° C. Seit dem Topping letzte Woche sind einige Seitentriebe entstanden. Ich habe die Lampe etwas höher gehängt um mehr Abstand zu den Pflanzen zu haben und hoffe, dass sich die neuen Seitentriebe dafür etwas strecken und die Rotfärbung der Blattstiele sich verringert. Die automatische Bewässerung funktioniert ganz gut, nur hatte ich mir mehr erhofft. Leider haben sich ein paar Trauermücken eingeschlichen, die ich noch loswerden muss. Ich halte es noch für etwas verfrüht die Blütephase einzuleiten, die Damen sollten noch etwas mehr an Größe und Präsenz bekommen, auch weil ich mir gerne ein paar Stecklinge nehmen möchte. Danke für euren Besuch und das Interesse an meinem Grow. Ich wünsche euch eine schöne Woche und viele aromatische Buds! ----------------------------- Generally speaking, the system is quite well balanced so far. During the day, the air temperature is between 24 and 26°C, while the soil reaches around 21.5°C. Since topping last week, a few side shoots have emerged. I have hung the lamp a little higher to have more distance to the plants and hope that the new side shoots will stretch a little and the red coloration of the leaf stems will be reduced. The automatic watering works quite well, but I had hoped for more. Unfortunately, a few fungus gnats have crept in, which I still have to get rid of. I still think it's a bit premature to start the flowering phase, the ladies should get a bit more size and presence, also because I would like to take a few cuttings. Thank you for your visit and your interest in my grow. Have a great week and lots of aromatic buds!

Hope you are well. Thanks for taking the time. Little main line defoliation to focus growth. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the primary energy carrier in cells, including plant cells. It powers various cellular activities like nutrient uptake, protein synthesis, and cell division. Without ATP, the plant's metabolic machinery would grind to a halt, regardless of the presence of nutrients, oxygen, or carbon. Nutrients, like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, are essential for building plant tissues and various molecules. They are incorporated into proteins, nucleic acids, and other vital compounds. While crucial, their uptake and utilization rely on ATP-driven processes. Oxygen is vital for cellular respiration, a process that generates ATP. While plants can produce ATP through photosynthesis, oxygen is essential for maximizing ATP production in mitochondria through oxidative phosphorylation. Carbon is the backbone of all organic molecules, including carbohydrates synthesized during photosynthesis. It's the fundamental building block of plant structures and fuels. However, its incorporation into organic molecules is also ATP-dependent. We don't grow we facilitate energy conversion.

 With true love comes happiness , Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 Growers love to you all <3 <3 <3 Here are the words from this peace of art from nature creator Shapeshifter's @ HI-ELEVATION GENETICS <3 <3 <3 "FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q. How did you create/breed Freakshow? A. Methodical selection, line breeding, and culling is the short answer. Read our About page for more details. Q. Is it an indoor or outdoor type? A. Everything I've ever worked has been outdoors, including of course Freakshow. It has been our experience that outdoor (or sun grown, as it's recently being referred to) cultivars seem to perform extremely well under artificial conditions. This is true of seed starts or clones made from seed starts. The opposite is not always true; indoor clones often give an outdoor grower headaches because they don't always make the transition smoothly. This is due to light spectrum, temperature, and/or photoperiod changes. Yes, Freakshow will do exceedingly well indoors, and will thrive and mature just fine in a wide variety of natural environments as well, so it's definitely both and I think might even prove to be more resilient to those sorts of transitions. Q. What are the potency and terpenoid levels? A. Average 18-20% THCa, THC; negligible CBD, CBN with terps variable, averaging 2.5-3.5, primarily limonene and pinene, but this is variable, there was a lot of diversity in terp combinations and compositions in all the prior generations, it's just something that was left "as is" for now. The different parallel lines that we are developing can be directed in a few different pathways flavorwise. Q. Why are the seeds white? A. Why is the sky blue? No, the mature seeds are shrouded by a rice paper thin membrane which has coloring and mottling on it, but it's so fragile that it disintegrates in the process of shucking. Stripped of the outer layer the seeds are very pale, nearly white. It came as no surprise that this plant would have abnormal seeds. Q. Is it a GMO? A. Wow...? Well, it's seriously "modified" and the modifications are definitely genetic, and it is an organism. (Genuinely Modified Organically!) Uh, no. No radiation, no recombinant DNA, no gene splicing or editing, no TALEN or CRISPR! These biotechnologies don't belong in the food and medicine plant industries. Sadly, in the near future it will become commonplace and widespread in cannabis and other medicinal plants as it is already is with food crops and ornamentals. I'll avoid discussion on this topic for now, but we hope some people enjoy consuming Frankenbud! Q. What's the floral period length? A. 8-9 wks, finishes early Oct. at most latitudes and elevations. Q. Is it a big producer? A. Freakshow will produce nice, fat, dense colas (see gallery) with remarkable trichome coverage, and you can expect yields according to your veg. time, root space, and general knowledge and expertise as a gardener. The same set of variables apply to expected outcomes regarding cannabinoid levels and terpene profiles. Q.What is the lineage? A. (Bigbud x Skunk#1) x (Big Sur Holy Weed x Banana Kush). NLD("Sativa") dominant, but the afghanica influence is apparent. I'm pretty sure that Freakshow contains some Trainwreck and some Maui Wowie based on some research I did on the origins of the Pineapple Express. Interestingly Big Sur Holyweed, OG Kush, Banana, Trainwreck, and Maui Wowie are all of unclear origins. We have to remember that these are all just names and that they don't really mean much. The exact heritage of any cultivar today is impossible to determine accurately. Also, considering the amount of continuous shameless hybridization that has occurred in the last 40 yrs., any modern kind could easily contain over 40 kinds. In the case of Freakshow, it's much more limited because the ancestry is largely older "Sativas" that didn't go through as much outcrossing. In the 70s in Santa Cruz, Haze was a favorite among surfers for the pure energy and I still have (greatly improved) stock of it around, simply because even when I made hybrids with it I always kept the original in pure form for obvious reasons. Q. What is the psychoactive effect like? A. Like the flavors, many people have commented that the "buzz" is somewhat different than other mainstream types out there. It's not entirely out of the scope of imagination that given that this strain has new alleles in so many other respects, that it could also contain new, unique cannabinoids, as well as new and unique terpenoids, some of which may not even be among the standard 16 or so that the average lab is testing for. Aside from the up, cerebral, energetic boost, some report a mild time/space warp effect. Creativity and idea induction should be mentioned, for sure. Freakshow has the pure energy effect and greatly alters perception to the positive side, so definitely destroys depression. Appetite suppression is a side effect, but the enjoyment of food is enhanced. I personally will attest to all of the above. We all have different receptor profiles, so these are just generalizations. Couch unlock. Q. Is it pest and mildew resistant? A. Indeed it is. On many occasions in the last few years, it has been observed that when pest and mildew issues were affecting other plants adjacent to in the vicinity of Freakshow plants, for unknown reasons the freaks remained entirely unaffected. This includes 0botritis, PM, various mites and insects, soil fungus, etc. We haven't heard any complaints along those lines so far, so if anyone has any problems, especially with a rigorous IPM regimen in place, we would like to hear about it. And if anyone can attest to the extreme level of resistance it seems to have we'd love to hear about that as well. Q. Does it contain web-leaf genetics? A. I thought I better clarify this because there are a few people thinking that because of an article "Growing Marijuana that Doesn't look like Marijuana" that mentions that I had worked web-leaf types years ago and had eventually turned that into Freakshow. This is incorrect and I'm needing to get ahold of the writer to have him change it. When I read the piece and saw the mistake I figured it didn't matter that much, that the actual method of breeding could just remain a "trade secret". Recently, I noticed online that a posting, "Freakshow only exists because of duckfoot" by Curious Cannabis Connoisseur, where he explains how I developed Freakshow using Duckfoot. Let me explain, about 20 yrs. ago a friend gave me a jar of seeds labeled "BC Bigbud" and I sprouted flats of hundreds to look for oddities and had found one web-leaf pheno which we named Webster. It was a female so I bred it to a normal leaf male and began selecting and stabilizing a line of Webster. About 5 or 6 generations later I had nailed it to 100% webs and had also stabilized it for a deep purple color and a nice "gingerbread" terp profile. I was busy working other lines at that point so I put Webster in the library. Also, I was having a hell of a time getting a pheno of it that flowered to my satisfaction. (it seemed to finish with a limited number of calyxes). I knew I would have to outcross it to something with a big tasty bud and restabilize it for web-leaf, and I no longer had the original BC Bigbud. I still have the Webster seeds, and trust me the thought has crossed my mind to make the cross with Freakshow, but why? Why mess around crossing things just to create something even weirder? I have heard that the "Duckfoot" also doesn't bud up well so maybe there's a correlation there. Anyway, people can do what they want to and I will too, but crossing Freakshow with some low-THC crap like ABC is in my opinion idiotic. I worked extremely hard stabilizing and perfecting a beautiful new subspecies and I believe it should be kept pure. I won't go on a rant here about the rampant crossing and the lack of line-breeding in the cannabis world in the last several decades, or where this will eventually lead us, but I will say that it's not in a good direction. Bottom line....Freakshow has no web-leaf genes, it was made using top-grade tropical narrow-leaf drug (NLD) cultivars. Q.Why is Freakshow patented? A. Although I and most others (including all the folks at HSC) believe in and subscribe to the concept of "open sourcing" because sharing in cannabis genetics was always the cultural norm, it was decided that Freakshow should be protected (1) because it is a novel and unique, not a preexisting strain (or even subspecies), (2) To keep the greedy corporate big boys from exploiting it, (3) To maintain control of the genetic refinement of it in all future generations. We really can't wait to share it with the entire collective world of cannabis enthusiasts and invite experimental breeding for personal use and curiosity." source https://freakshowcannabis.com
