Critical Kush is a strain that is potent, and with it come a few side effects, although none of them are very serious. This indica-dominant strain can sometimes make you feel parched as it can leave you with a dry mouth, which is usually coupled with a case of dry and itchy eyes.

Had a bad humidity (spots on leave are wet spots that got handled ASAP) scare last week so got a dehumidifier up in there comfortably. Still smooth sailing.

Budds are fattening...but.. one day I forgot to turn back the fan after inspection, and it was off for a week almost. As a result i have found little fluffy white patch of mold on my biggest budd. So far I just sort of collected it, with a cotton stick.. hesitant to chop it down. Lowering watering, to 1l every 2 days, to keep humidity below 70. By the plan I am keepimg it through the June, 4 more weeks. Unless trychoms will call earlier. Thanks for checking See you next week

# LSD Zamnesia Tripping 🙂 | Drying, Trimming & Final Numbers — Week 15 From Seed First of all… Yes 😄 We are once again dividing the harvest into multiple parts, and we sincerely apologize for that. But honestly, there was simply no realistic way to fit everything properly into a single GrowDiaries update. Between: - harvest photos, - trimming sessions, - macro stacks, - drying process, - preservation methods, - extraction preparation, - washing content, - smoke review material, - and all the little behind-the-scenes moments… …the amount of data collected during this run became massive. And instead of rushing through everything or leaving important parts unexplained, we decided to split the final stages into multiple chapters so every step gets the attention it deserves. Because harvest is not just “cut plant, dry plant, smoke plant.” The final weeks are honestly an entire process on their own. And this week? This week was all about: - drying, - trimming, - preservation, - resin collection, - and finally seeing what these girls truly delivered. For everyone joining now, quick recap: These LSD girls were grown under 12/12 from seed from the very beginning. Minimal intervention. Almost no traditional training. Mostly leaf tucking and gentle bending when needed. The plants grew naturally toward the light while we focused mainly on environmental balance and observation instead of aggressive manipulation. The goal was never maximum optimization. The goal was understanding. And honestly? These girls became absolute monsters anyway. After harvest, the plants that were not frozen for future washing were dried mostly whole instead of being aggressively broken down immediately. We wanted the drying process to happen slowly and naturally to help preserve: - terpenes, - resin quality, - smoothness, - and final flower texture. Drying conditions stayed around: - 18–20°C - approximately 60% humidity And after around 10 days… That beautiful little branch “click” finally arrived. Growers know the sound 😄 Not fully snapping into dust… not bending wet anymore… …that perfect middle point where you know trimming time has officially arrived. And honestly? This is where the room became chaos again 😄 Trim bin ready. Gloves on. Scissors prepared. Mr. Baggy supervising operations as usual. We even gave him a trimming cap so his imaginary hairs would not contaminate the flowers 😄 Safety first. One branch at a time, we slowly started breaking everything down by hand: - separating flowers, - removing excess leaf material, - preserving structure, - checking density, - and admiring the insane amount of frost these girls developed. And wow… These flowers are ridiculously resinous. Not just visually frosty. Sticky frosty. The type where: - scissors stop cooperating, - gloves become glued together, - fingers turn black with resin, - and every few minutes you accidentally create little hash sculptures while trimming. The Zamnesia curved trimming scissors honestly became one of my favorite tools during this process. The pointed curved tips make it incredibly easy to reach deep inside dense flowers without damaging structure too aggressively. And these flowers definitely deserved precision. Dense. Heavy. Compact. Extremely resinous. Some buds honestly felt closer to small rocks than flowers 😄 While trimming, the trim bin also started collecting beautiful material underneath: - tiny trichome heads, - broken resin glands, - small fragments, - and all the golden dusty goodness growers love seeing accumulate slowly over time. And once enough collected… Of course we hand-pressed it 😄 Nothing fancy. No giant machinery. No complicated setup. Just warmth from the hands, gentle pressure, patience, and resin slowly transforming itself into beautiful soft hash. The color came out gorgeous too: light golden, slightly creamy, soft, sticky, and incredibly fragrant. Simple. Traditional. Beautiful. Exactly the kind of small moments that make harvest season special. Now for the final dry numbers so far: Plant A: 287g dry flower Plant B: 107.3g dry flower And it is important to mention: the second plant was NOT harvested fully for flower because a significant portion had already been separated and frozen for future ice-water extraction work. So these numbers do not represent the total biomass produced by that plant. And honestly? We are extremely happy with the results. Especially considering: - the 12/12-from-seed approach, - minimal intervention, - the massive resin production, - the flower density, - and the overall quality expression these girls delivered. The aroma during trimming was unbelievable too. The entire studio became saturated with terpenes: - loud, - greasy, - sweet, - sharp, - complex, - almost offensive in the best possible way 😄 Every movement released more aroma into the room. Every branch smelled alive. And even now during curing, these girls continue evolving beautifully. For preservation, we decided to divide storage between: - Grove Bags, - glass jars, - and a few additional preservation containers. And honestly, this is something we always enjoy testing because curing is never just “put flower somewhere and forget about it.” Different storage methods can slightly influence: - moisture stabilization, - terpene retention, - aroma evolution, - texture, - and long-term aging behavior. Glass jars remain classics for a reason. But Grove Bags are also extremely interesting because they are specifically designed to help stabilize humidity exchange internally without constant burping routines. And over time, comparing these methods becomes part of the fun too. Of course, this is still not the end of the story. Far from it 😄 The next chapters will cover: - frozen material washing, - ice-water extraction, - separation, - resin collection, - drying techniques, - curing updates, - smoke review, - terpene analysis, - and final concentrate results. And honestly… These girls already gave us some absolutely beautiful medicine during washing tests 👀 But we will save those details for the proper extraction update. Mr. Baggy stayed with us through the entire trimming process as always, emotionally supporting operations and probably stealing quality control samples when nobody was looking 😄 And finally… Thank you. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron. To F.O.G. To all the LEDs, gear, and equipment involved. To GrowDiaries. To the community. To the longtime followers. To the new followers. To the silent supporters. To the curious visitors. To the skeptics. To the lovers and the haters 😄 To everyone spending even a few minutes following this strange beautiful plant journey with us. And next week? Things get icy 🌊❄️ Fresh frozen material. Washing. Extraction. Resin separation. And another entire side of this plant still waiting to be explored. Stay safe everyone. Stay curious. And may your scissors always stay sticky 🌱

10/11 111 days old, 42 days since flip and any time now. She is wrapping things up quick. She gets cold at night. The pictures do this plant no justice. She is not green, she is purple. 70s during the day and 60s at night really brings the color out. This strain is supposed to finish in 54 to 60 days. She will not make it to 50 before finishing. Really she looks done now. She was grown in living soil. I added more worm castings, myco and zolmite. That was it for her entire veg stage. She was a beautiful dark green and not one sign of deficiency. All I did was add water. For the flower stage I added more castings and Gaia Green power bloom. Then when she started flowering I added the Fox Farm bloom nuits. Probably didn’t need the Fox Farm but I had it so I used it. She has been on straight water for the past week. I added defoliation even though it’s not really defoliating. The leaves are drying up. I’m pulling them off to let the light go deeper. The Soil Makers, Colchester CT is where I got the living soil from. 10/13 she is almost ready. Watered her last night. Waiting to see is she is still drinking. 10/14 chopped her down, Timber. Did my first trim, took a couple of hours. That was taking my time. She was not that hard to trim. Between being lollipoped and this strain is not very leafy. Trimming was very easy. I chopped her at the bottom after trimming and hung the whole plant. Since it’s the whole plant I didn’t bother getting the wet weight. The whole plant is very heavy, over 5 pounds. Wet doesn’t tell me much so why bother. Going by looks I should net about a pound, give or take. Now I’m going to try and give her a slow dry and cure. Also can’t say harvested until i am able to get some weight.

06.07.26 Das Hitzegewitter haben alle Pflanzen gut überstanden, die Temperaturen haben etwas nachgelassen aber auch bei 25 Grad läuft das Wachstum gut weiter. Der Wasserbedarf ist etwas zurück gegangen und bis auf einen einzelnen ausgewachsenen Thrips habe ich keine Schädlinge entdeckt und vernichtet. Zur Sicherheit habe ich ein paar Tüten mit Raubmilben bestellt und werde sie wohl Ende der Woche erhalten und ausbringen. Die automatische Bewässerung habe ich am Wochenende mal aufgebaut, bin aber noch nicht ganz zufrieden und spiele an der Einstellung. Gute Woche und weiterhin Erfolg beim Abbau euch allen!

These have been growing kind of slowly but I got the temps up a little this week by adding some extra light and am getting vpd dialed in. These will only be in this tent for a few more days I am just starting to harvest the main tent so once that is done they will be moved to the Gorilla Grow Tent and put under the new Growlightscience LEDs so we can see how the perform full cycle. The autos will have to get moved back into this tent once I flip the main tent but the photos will prob need a few weeks of veg before that happens. Been doing foliars with the Growzyme from greenbuzz as well before lights out every other night which seems to make them happy. I think theyll take off over the next couple weeks.

Die Pflanzen kommen in die 8. Blütenwoche und haben sich gut entwickelt, die Blüten haben letzte Woche noch etwas zugelegt und sind praller geworden. Auch sehen die Blüten jetzt schön frostig aus und glänzen schön im Licht. Ich werde noch abwarten, wie sich die Trichome entwickelt, der Gorilla könnte Ende kommender Woche fertig sein. Chocolate Rainbow XXL brauch auf jeden Fall noch etwas länger hat diese Woche aber auch schon mehr Trichome gebildet. Amnesia Haze liegt irgendwo dazwischen und kann evtl. schon mit Royal Gorilla geerntet werden.

The Bruce Banner girls had a strong week! 💪 #1 is still the biggest plant in the tent and looks super happy. She handled the LST perfectly and keeps stretching nicely 🔥. #2 is catching up and growing more balanced now. #3 has finally found her rhythm and started growing normally 🙌. Both #2 and #3 are now showing their first pistils, so they’ve officially entered the flowering stage 🌸. This week all three received a watering with Green House Bio Enhancer, and aside from that, just RO water + CalMag (Advanced Nutrients) 💧. No issues or signs of deficiency, leaves are lush green and healthy across the board 🌿. They’re growing in the 90×90 tent with the AC Infinity AI setup and Spider Farmer SE5000, keeping everything dialed in: 25–26 °C, 60 % RH, and around 500–600 µmol/m²/s PPFD 🌡️. Overall, #1 remains the queen of the tent 👑, while #2 and #3 are catching up as they ease into early flower. Excited to see them start stacking buds soon! ✨

 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
