I decided it's harvest time for this amazing lady.. Cos she lived on balcony I don't know yet about her ready to use weigh but I gues around 40g dry. Will see in about a week 🙏🌱👀 So I will chop her, and make she ready for drying in RQS hemp dryer. Now I know for a myself that yes u can easily grow half in growbox and flowering outside if needed, 😉 When more ongoing I will update 🙏💚🌱 Happy growing 🙏🌱💚

💜 Purple CousKush Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B | Week 10 🌿 No Demands. No Drama. Just Beautiful Flowering. Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 And once again... Purple CousKush Pheno B isn't asking for much. She's not complaining. She's not creating problems. She's not demanding special treatment. She's simply growing. Flowering. Building. And looking absolutely beautiful while doing it. 😂💜 At this stage of the adventure, I think that's exactly what I want from her. We're reaching that part of the cycle where there isn't necessarily a lot left for the grower to do. We've built the plants. We've trained them. We've managed the canopies. We've provided the environment. We've given them the nutrition and the light. Now? We mostly provide whatever they ask for and stay out of the way. And Purple CousKush Pheno B isn't asking for much. She's perfectly happy continuing at her own rhythm. So... let's give this girl her spotlight. 🌱 The 8×8 Adventure — Everybody Has Their Own Rhythm For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure. Twelve different plants. Different genetics. Different phenotypes. One general cultivation environment. One lighting philosophy. One nutrition strategy. One room. And yet... twelve different stories. That's what makes this project so interesting. Some girls have been more demanding. Some have needed more attention. Some are extremely compact. Some spread themselves out. Some move faster. Some take their time. And some, like this Purple CousKush Pheno B, basically look at me and say: "I'm fine. Just keep the drinks coming." 😂💜 Fair enough. That's exactly what we're doing. 💜 Week 10 — She's Still Doing Her Thing She's sitting around 96 cm, which puts her firmly into the more moderate-sized category of this run. She's not a giant. She's not a dwarf. She's not trying to take over the tent. But she's also not cramped into a tiny little package. Instead, she's developed a really nice spread through the available space. And that's something I'm appreciating more and more. She's not particularly compact. Her branches have room to spread. Her flowering sites occupy the space naturally. And the plant has developed a nice relationship between height and lateral structure. She's using the space she's been given. Not excessively. Not wastefully. Just... nicely. And honestly, that's a very satisfying phenotype to work with. 🌿 Beautifully Spread Through Her Space One of the things that catches my attention this week is how nicely she's occupying the space around her. She's not simply a vertical column of flowers. She's spreading outward. The branches have developed into their own little framework, with flowering sites distributed throughout the structure. That gives her a completely different appearance from some of the more compact girls in the room. And that's exactly what I love about comparing phenotypes. Her sister tells a different story. Other Purple CousKush plants tell different stories. This one? She likes a little more room. And she's using it beautifully. There's something elegant about seeing a plant naturally occupy the space available to her without becoming excessively stretched. She's simply finding her own shape. And I like her shape. 🌸 The Buds Are Getting Serious Now let's talk about the flowers. Because... damn. 😂💜 The buds are becoming seriously beautiful. They're gaining density. They're becoming more defined. They're carrying more visual weight. And the overall flowering structure is starting to look increasingly mature. This is the point where you stop looking at little flowering sites and start seeing proper buds developing throughout the plant. The structures are filling. The individual flowers are becoming more substantial. And the whole plant is increasingly dominated by those beautiful flowering formations. This is what we've been waiting for. And she's delivering. ❄️ Very, Very Frosty And then there is the frost. She's getting seriously frosty. The resin is becoming increasingly obvious across the flowers and surrounding sugar leaves. Get the camera close... and suddenly everything becomes about texture. Tiny resin-covered surfaces. Pistils. Calyxes. Sugar leaves. Layers upon layers of detail. This is exactly where my love of macro photography and growing overlap. Because you can stand back and see a beautiful plant. Then you move closer... and suddenly you're looking at an entire microscopic landscape. And Purple CousKush Pheno B is giving me plenty to explore. The name CousKush might be the first thing you read. But that frost? That's what makes you stay and look. 😂❄️💜 🌸 The Hairs Are Changing Beautifully I'm also really enjoying the way the pistils are developing. They're no longer just those fresh white hairs we see in early flower. They're beginning to show more character as the flowers progress. The colour is changing. The flowers are maturing. And that contrast between the developing pistils and the green floral structures is beautiful. It's another little sign that we're moving forward. Not finished. Not ready to write the ending. But definitely progressing. And this is the stage where every week becomes increasingly interesting. Because eventually, those little changes start adding up. 🌿 And Those Leaves... The foliage continues looking beautiful too. Nice colour. Nice structure. Nice overall appearance. And there's something particularly satisfying about seeing healthy-looking foliage surrounding flowers that are becoming this dense and frosty. The leaves are still doing their job. They're still contributing to the plant. They're still capturing light. They're still supporting the flowering process. And I'm not interested in removing healthy foliage just because we're getting deeper into flower. At this point, if the plant is comfortable and the canopy is functioning... leave her alone. 😂 She's got this. ✂️ No More Need for the Scissors We've already done the canopy work earlier in the flowering cycle. That work served its purpose. The plant has room. The structure is functional. Air can move through it. Light can reach the important areas. And now? I'm not going back in simply because I feel like I should be doing something. That's one of the biggest lessons of this stage. Sometimes the best cultivation technique is: Don't touch it. 😂 At this point, we're not trying to redesign Purple CousKush. We're watching her finish. If she doesn't ask for something... I'm not going to invent a problem. 💡 The Photons Keep Coming The Future of Grow Black Series LED continues providing the primary overhead lighting, while Lumiflora contributes additional light beneath the canopy. And this girl is clearly making use of that environment. She's built plenty of flowering structure. She's developing dense buds. She's producing visible resin. And she's filling her available space naturally. That's what I want to see. The light provides the opportunity. The environment provides the conditions. The plant's genetics decide what happens with that opportunity. And Purple CousKush Pheno B has decided to make some beautiful flowers. I'm perfectly happy with her decision. 💜🌿✨ 🔬 This Is Why Phenotypes Are So Interesting Looking at this girl beside her sister is particularly fun. Same genetic line. Same general room. Same lighting. Same environmental philosophy. Same grower. But completely different expressions. One phenotype may be more compact. Another may spread wider. One may produce a different flower structure. Another may develop different proportions. And that's the entire reason I wanted to document these plants individually. Because if I simply looked at Purple CousKush as one thing, I'd miss all of this. There isn't one Purple CousKush story. There are individual stories. And this one is telling me: "I'm going to spread out, build beautiful dense flowers, get very frosty, and otherwise leave you alone." 😂💜 I like that story. 🌸 We're Getting Into the "Watch and Wait" Stage This is where the entire room is becoming especially interesting. Most of the girls are moving quickly now. The flowering structures are established. The plants have largely finished deciding how they're going to occupy their space. And the grower starts becoming less of a sculptor... and more of a caretaker. We provide what they need. We monitor. We observe. We keep the environment stable. And we wait. Because from here, the plant has a lot of the work left to do. Density. Resin. Maturity. Final flower development. And eventually... the finish line. Purple CousKush Pheno B is heading there beautifully. 💧 Feeding & Irrigation The current recorded conditions remain: 🌸 Flowering: Week 10 📏 Height: 96 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 🌡️ Day temperature: 29.9°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 Relative humidity: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC/TDS: ~2.0 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 26°C 🌬️ CO₂: 639 ppm ? Pot size: 15 L 💦 Watering: approximately 1.2 L per plant / 24h The nutrition and irrigation approach remains consistent. And honestly? She's not asking for anything different. That's important. There's no reason to change something that's working simply because we're getting closer to the finish. Consistency remains the name of the game. 🌡️ Stable Environment, Happy Plant The room continues operating under the same general environmental philosophy. Stable temperatures. Stable lighting. Stable nutrition. Stable irrigation. And a plant that appears perfectly comfortable inside those conditions. That's exactly what I want. The less drama the plant gives me... the more I can concentrate on observing what her genetics are actually doing. And this phenotype is giving us plenty to observe. 📸 This Week's Gallery The photographs this week really show the progression. The full-plant shots demonstrate how nicely she's spreading through the available space. The closer photographs reveal the flower density. And once you get close enough... the frost becomes impossible to ignore. There's something very satisfying about photographing her now. She's developed enough structure that the plant tells a story from a distance. But there are enough details in the flowers that you can keep getting closer and still find something interesting. And that's exactly what I want from these late-flowering photographs. Not just: "Here's the plant." But: "Here's what the plant has become." 💜 She's Not Asking for Much — And That's a Good Thing I think I've said this several times about this girl now. But it keeps being true. She's not demanding. She's not troublesome. She's not dramatic. She's not constantly asking for intervention. She's just growing beautifully. And at this stage? That's almost the perfect plant. Because we're reaching the point where there's not much I want to do to her anyway. I want her to finish. I want her to build. I want her to mature. I want her to show me what those flowers can become. So if she's happy... I'm happy. Simple. 😂💜 🔭 Looking Ahead — How Will She Finish? And now comes the fun part. We're getting closer. Not at the finish line yet. But close enough that the question becomes increasingly interesting: How is Purple CousKush Pheno B going to finish? Will those dense flowers continue swelling? How much more resin will appear? How will the pistils continue changing? How much more maturity will we see in the buds? And what will this beautiful, nicely spread-out plant ultimately look like when she decides she's done? I genuinely don't know. And I'm not going to pretend I do. That's the fun. We watch. We document. We provide. And we let the plant write the ending. ❤️ Final Thoughts — She's Shining Purple CousKush Pheno B is another girl in this run who is making my job wonderfully simple. She's growing. She's flowering. She's spreading nicely through her available space. She's producing dense flowers. She's getting very frosty. The pistils are developing beautiful colour. The foliage looks great. And she's not asking me for much at all. Honestly... what more could I ask for? 😂💜 She's not the smallest plant in the room. She's not the tallest. She's not particularly compact. She's not trying to be anything she's not. She's simply using the space she's been given and turning it into flowers. And I really like that. This whole 8×8 Adventure keeps reminding me that there isn't one correct way for a plant to express itself. Some plants compress. Some spread. Some stretch. Some stay short. Some build giant central flowers. Some create beautiful clusters throughout the branches. And Purple CousKush Pheno B? She's found her own way. A nice spread. Beautiful structure. Dense flowers. Heavy frost. Beautiful colour. And absolutely no drama. 💜🌿❄️ We're at that beautiful point now where I don't feel like I need to do much. I just need to provide whatever she asks for. And this girl isn't asking for much. So we'll keep doing exactly that. Keep the environment stable. Keep her supplied. Keep watching. Keep photographing. And let her finish in her own time. Because she's already given me a beautiful plant. Now I want to see what she does with the time that's left. And I have to admit... I'm very curious. Let's see how this beautiful Purple CousKush finishes. She's earned the spotlight. She's earned the attention. And she's certainly earned another week of simply being allowed to shine. 💜✨🌿 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for these beautiful Purple CousKush genetics and for giving us another fascinating phenotype to follow. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting these girls throughout the flowering journey. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for the Black Series lighting driving the garden. Thank you to Lumiflora for bringing additional light beneath the canopy and adding another dimension to this experiment. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping maintain the environment behind the scenes. And, of course, thank you to everyone following this crazy 8×8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries. We're getting deeper into the journey now. The plants are becoming themselves. The differences between phenotypes are becoming clearer. And the amount of work required from the grower is slowly changing. We're no longer building. We're no longer shaping. We're mostly watching. Providing. Maintaining. And waiting. And Purple CousKush Pheno B? She's making that part very easy. She's not asking for much. She's not causing trouble. She's just growing beautiful, dense, frosty flowers in her own beautiful way. So let's keep watching. Let's keep photographing. Let's keep learning. And most importantly... let's see how this girl finishes. 💜❄️🌸 Until next week... Beautiful structure. Dense flowers. Heavy frost. No demands. Let's let her shine. Growers Love & Happy Growing! 🌱💚💜

We are almost at the moment of working our magic, we are about to go into flowering and the vegetative phase is coming to an end, our Zamensia Slurricane is a very beautiful plant with low internodal distance that looks like a small Japanese tree. We are about to do the last topping that will bring it to 16 tops, 16 small clones of the main cola that will come up I hope at the same time and all together and above all I hope that the cold will give us a great resin and a beautiful coloration. During the topping the use of nitrogen is a very delicate subject. The topping cuts slow down the plant and the leaves tend to grow bigger going a bit into over, it happened to her then you detach and it tends to discharge now we are at the moment that we are starting to give nitrogen again to then go into flowering. It is a process that must be nuanced very delicately. Ideally it is to start by preparing the soil with fertilizer and add if necessary. I over-fertilized the plants a bit but it's something I've always managed very well once I got to flowering. Next time we'll add something to the soil with fertilizers with this technique it's very suitable. Wait for the uncle BreadandBuds.... We are always using soil, feeding and all the recommended additives from Plagron 100% organic, we have only lowered the amount of grow in this topping phase for the reasons mentioned above. ---- Decide on the right soil and calculate your fertilizer sheet based on the soil on the official website. -- www.plagron.com Try a seed of this strain that drives us crazy...It's a super News! ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11177-zamnesia-seeds-slurricane.html Zamnesia Description // Do you want to add a prestigious genetics to your grow room? Slurricane is a premium US strain created by In House Genetics and now available to growers thanks to the breeding processes implemented by Zamnesia. Born from the fusion of Purple Punch and Do-Si-Dos, Slurricane is 60% indica and incredibly vigorous. Whether grown indoors, outdoors or in a greenhouse, this strain can produce large quantities of dense and aromatic buds. Add Slurricane to your assortment and enjoy growing one of the most beloved hybrids in the United States. All the best that mother nature can offer is on ---- www.zamnesia.com

Möge die Macht mit euch sein Growmies, Cookies Terpene mit Zitrone liegt wahrlich in der Luft. Das minimale bud bleaching scheint genetisch bedingt zu sein da ich den Abstand zur Lampe erhöht habe und jetzt laut photone 980-1000ppfd oben an der Spitze. Die Alderaan Cookies Automatic von V-Buds ist bis jetzt einfach ein wunderschönes gesamt Paket und einfach schön anzusehen nachdem ich mir die Trichomen angeschaut habe würde ich sagen 1 eher noch 2 Wochen damit sie ausreifen kann da ich bevorzugt Ernte wenn alle Trichome milchig sind und vereinzelt bernstein. Bin echt gespannt wie lange sie braucht hoffentlich purpelt sie noch als Sahnehäubchen aber wenn nicht auch egal.

First week of flower done. Girls are looking super happy and are going strong. I fed them with a very light mix of FPJ and some fish and seaweed mix. Next feeding will include some banana FFJ. I have removed all the lower branches and leaves, only keeping the top 3 nodes (on some I left a few more). At the end of the first week, they are stretching a bit and really filling up the space. Hopefully they won't be stretching too much.

Now we are going to week four, the plants have started to really vegetate, I have seen rapid growth in cannabis and other plants before, however, this strain is growing very large at a tremendous pace. I am having no issues so far, I am doing very light training and I started using pH down, as the plants ingest the nutrients the pH is rapidly rising. I hope to preserve perfect pH within the next week and continue on. I have been adding a gallon of water every three days to keep the reservoir at the right level. The plants are receiving a constant PPM of 400. Not only am I seeing five-finger leaves but I am also seeing seven-finger leaves. The plants are looking very healthy and there are no issues at all so far. I have Started to train the plants and started mainlining, I have also slightly defoliated the plant. This Plant is overgrowing the free seed from seedsmen. ( in hindsight I have never gotten any good free seeds from seedsmen) Science: There are a few ideas in this grow journal that I am toying with. The first idea is putting low-voltage conduction through the roots of the plants, I strongly believe that stimulating the the roots with electricity will induce larger and stronger vegetation. The other idea is blasting the plants with low decibel sound waves. We will see. There is another idea I have with string LED lights. However, I'm going to keep some of my secret sauce to myself.

Very excited to start a new grow!! 21/11/2023: Placed the seed in a wet paper towel inside a zip lock bag and put it on the inside of the cabinet. Whilst this is germinating I can setup and clean my tent and get the substrate ready. This will be my first time using Biotabs nutrients and also the first time I won't be using the hydroponic DWC method. Hoping for yet another great grow and tasty end result! 25/11/2023: Transfered seedling to coco medium which I prepared with Bio Tabs nutrients. Soaked the medium with Orgatrex and Bactrex disolved in tap water. Set the light schedule to 18/6 27/11/2023: Added some more water with nutrients because the medium felt dry. Might have overwatered a bit since a lot of water ended up in the bottom tray. I'll let it dry out a bit the next days before adding water again.

And the time for Le Madame Freak Le Chick to come down as arrived!!! This was a wild ride , super emotional and repleted with amazing views, i totally advise everyone to try and grow this wild card , she is a treat and a blessing in our lives As always thank you all for stopping by , for the love and for it all, i fell blessed to have you all with me for one more love journey, and a different one form the rest i did so far <3 <3 <3 Thank you Thank you Thank you , you guys are great and have been amazing , thank you for everything <3<3<3 #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience #dogdoctorofficial #growerslove
 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

Hey, cannabis enthusiasts and connoisseurs! 🌿🔥 The journey with our Runtz F1 has been nothing short of legendary, and now we’re at the stage that every grower eagerly awaits—the trim and smoke report. This Runtz F1 has delivered beyond expectations, and I can’t wait to share the details with you. Let’s dive in! The Trim Process 🌾✂️ The trimming process was an experience in itself, filled with care and attention to detail. Here’s how it all went down: • Breaking Down the Branches 🌿: • First, we carefully broke down the plant into manageable branches, making sure to preserve the integrity of each bud. The structure of the Runtz F1 made this easy, with its dense, compact colas ready for precision trimming. • Trim Bin Magic ✂️: • Using a Trim Bin, we meticulously trimmed away the sugar leaves, leaving behind only the most beautiful, resin-coated buds. The Trim Bin isn’t just a tool; it’s a game-changer, allowing us to catch every last bit of precious kief that falls during the process. This extra kief is like a bonus for those special moments when you want to add a little something extra to your smoke. • Preserving Terpenes with Grove Bags 🛍️: • Once trimmed, the buds were placed into Grove Bags for curing. These bags are revolutionary in the cannabis world, designed to lock in terpenes and keep your buds fresh for the long haul. Unlike traditional jars, Grove Bags use a special TerpLoc technology that creates a perfect microclimate within the bag, balancing out oxygen and moisture levels. This means your buds cure evenly without the need for burping, preserving that incredible citrus terpene profile we’ve come to love from the Runtz F1. The Legendary Smoke 🌬️🔥 Now, let’s talk about the smoke—because this is where the Runtz F1 truly shines. • Flavor Explosion 🍊🍋: • The moment you take your first inhale, you’re hit with a symphony of citrus flavors. It’s like walking through a citrus grove with the sun shining down—notes of oranges, tangerines, and lemons come through strong, each one distinct yet harmoniously blended. But the magic doesn’t stop there; an underlying hint of vanilla sneaks in on the exhale, rounding out the flavor with a creamy, smooth finish. It’s an experience that dances on your palate, leaving you craving more. • Aroma 🌿🌸: • The smell is just as captivating as the flavor. As soon as you open the Grove Bag, the room fills with that zesty citrus aroma, complemented by a subtle sweetness from the vanilla undertone. It’s the kind of smell that makes you pause and appreciate the craft that went into growing this plant. • The Effects 🌟: • The effects of the Runtz F1 are as balanced as its flavor profile. Expect an initial wave of uplifting energy—perfect for daytime use or when you need a creative boost. As the high settles in, it mellows into a relaxed, yet focused state. It’s the best of both worlds: energizing without being overwhelming, and calming without knocking you out. This makes it an ideal strain for those who want to stay productive while still enjoying a potent, flavorful smoke.
