Ginger Nut Cookies & Aussie Music Videos Week 16 Harvest 17 th April 2020 This Entire feminised seed making and growing project was a very good learning experience for me. Right from the very start, when I successfully got a Cutting ,taken from a Barneys Farm Red diesel female plant to produce feminised pollen after treating it with a silver thiosulfate solution. I then used it to pollinate a Fastbuds Girl scout cookies auto plant and let it grow to maturity. This only produced 3 viable seeds one of which is the subject of this Diary. I made up the name "Ginger nut cookies" after a variety of cookies we have here in Australia that are made with ginger. They are the same colour as the distinct red hairs on the red diesel buds. And would you believe those same vivid red hairs were passed on to this plant so I wasn't too far off the mark with the strain name. Her flavour however is nothing like red diesel or girl scout cookies and infact as taken on a smell and aroma all of it's own. She has a lovely tropical fruit like taste and the smell is a bit like fruit yoghurt. It has an unreal after taste on the exhale and the lingering second hand smoke smells very sweet and enticing. She has a pretty well balanced high too not as potent as the GSC nor as energenic as the red diesel but just a pleasant mix of the two. It was a very easy to grow and undemanding plant that didn't seem to require a lot of extra feeding other than the 100% organic nutrients that were within the soil and a few things like compost teas etc. The other element of this diary was of course the weekly Aussie music videos That I provided the links for and put up a little video clip preview of each Artists song. Week 1 Dance Monkey Week 2 Gotye Week 3 AC/DC Week 4 INXS Week 5 Dire straits Week 6 Yothu yindi and Midnight oil Week 7 Divinyls Week 8 Was Request week where I asked growers to pick and because only 3 growers put in a request I decided to choose all three which were Kylie Minogue , Flume & Airbourne Week 9 Paul Kelly Week 10 Daddy Cool Week 11 Cold chisel Week 12 Jimmy Barnes Week 13 The Angels Week 14 Crowded House Hoodoo gurus Mental as Anything Week 15 Empire of the sun Big Pig , Silverchair , Peking duk Grinspoon , Hilltop hoods and the White stripes And Finally for the last lot of music videos I have chosen another multi list bonanza of Aussie Music with the artist/s name and Youtube link below. So in no particular order here are my last choices for this Diary its been a fun grow with a steep learning curve.

Moving together nicely

Day 50 from seed and these BCN criticals have a lovely citrus smell. When i open the tent, its the first thing i smell. Theyre all healthy and running. Lights are still on 20/4. Bit of redish/amber hairs showing up. When i loom at other pictures its just the genes of the genetic. I Cant wait to harvest this! Ive started adding more biobizz as it states on the chart. And then i water with normal tap water every 2 days! I will post an update for week 8 next week! One love!

Week3 sunce germination and I'mloving how they are evolving they are all back on the run and happy as hell🤭😁😅 week 3 day 17 veg and the roots on this cuties are fantastic, they all look kind of the same, super happy with them so far. week 3 day 17 veg And TP1 got her second pair of leaves and she is willing to catch up with the rest , the rest they are way ahed and all on the write track 😅❤️ week 3 day 18 veg and it looks like CS3 wants to pass CS1 but still same same and CS1 still the most beautiful one 😅 week 3 day 18 veg TP1 going for her secont pair 🤩 week 3 day 18veg Transplant day since they all have ok roots 😅 i moved TP1 with the others so the she doesn’t fell left behind 😅✌️ Now they will stay in this pots until fabric one to flower, but baby steeps for now i’m going to give them some food 😅 week 3 day 20 veg. And they are loving the new pot and feedings, TP1 continues to run after they’re sisters with are all going for tiny brunches (all of them) the queen still CS1 but the rest is caching up 😜😅🤩 week 3 day 21 veg. And a lot happened lol during the day yesterday i lost one of my improved leds so today i had to teke one of m zeus from flower tent( its almost done its ok 😜) and improvise a corner half under a table with only one bar connected to the driver , and I’m running it st 25% this will have to work out for a week mb a little longer lets see 😜😅 week 3 day 21 veg. Girls evolving great, CS1 still the queen, faster growing, amazing leaves great roots , it looks like a keeper, CS3 and CS2 they have some mutant leaves , so I’m yet to see how they evolve, but they are not keepers since i’m phenohunting so i will keep only the most perfect ones to clone. week 3 day 21 veg. TP1 is evolving amazingly fast now, it looks like she recovered from the light i dropon her wen she was only 2 days old, lets see but by the looks of it she’s on her way to b a keeper 😅 CS2 looking amazing and for sure a keeper so far Litle battle between Topicanna Poisen from @sweetseeds vs Chocolate Skunk from @00Seeds (just for fun) TP = Tropicana Poison CS = Chocolate Skunk All i grow is medecine for myself, nothing to sell, dont even ask !!!! Stay safe and do it with love for the love ❤️ 🙏

So space is now at a premium!! The bed has been given a feed this week and some more selective defoliation Thanks for stopping by 👍

Getting quite tall here.

I have done a great deal of defoliation I have two in a 2x2 tent the 2nd plant was a back up but the 1st one started to take off. She is doing well growing taller every day and pistols looking good too with new growth also everyday. I’m only feeding about once a week been really hard to keep the tent dry so have been water till fully dry. Temps have been great so far 76day time temp with a drop to about 69-70 at night. Been warming up here summer is around the corner pulled out the AC units working well for now.

4/22/25: last flush 2 tsp of sledgehammer with 1 gallon of water used 2 gallons between all three plants…more cool colors coming in with the fade 4/24/25: fed with recommended dosage for week 11 on my schedule card (day 31 of flower) 4/27/25: watered with plain ph water at 6.8

The grow was a rollercoaster of highs and lows. My Blue Dream plant developed mold in the buds, so I decided to harvest my Banana purple punch earlier to stay on the safe side. The trichomes exhibited a good balance of amber and milky colors, but unfortunately, there was no time for a proper flush period. Banana Purple Punch encountered the most challenges among the strains. It struggled with aphids, nitrogen toxicity, and thrips, which affected its overall health and bud development. This strain seemed particularly sensitive to high nutrient levels, which likely contributed to these issues. Despite these setbacks, I’m hopeful for a decent harvest. Each problem provided valuable lessons on pest management and nutrient balance, which will be beneficial for future grows. Update 09.08. Today, I brought the Banana Purple Punch into my apartment for a trim session. Since I didn’t trim her wet, this took a bit more effort compared to the Blue Dream harvest. The buds are quite airy and fluffy, but they have a fantastic aroma. The vibrant purple color of the buds is stunning, and I can't wait to give them a proper cure and eventually taste them—I’m confident they’ll be delicious. Unfortunately, I had to discard a few buds due to mold spots again. The rich purple hues of the buds make it challenging to distinguish between mold and the natural coloration, but once they're fully dry and cured, the smell should reveal any lingering issues. The dry weight was 24 gramm.

Day 40 : Watering today community after 3 days. They were too thirsty and drank 2.5L per plant. I added a lot of food to the water. But it finished with 800ppm only. I think Biobizz decreased the density of nutrients. I added 1 co2 tab / 5L as every time. Also made small defoliation to the bottom for all ladies. She have reached 53cm.

This lady is Frosty sticky icky Orange terpenessssssssss don't lie Juyce nuggy

Transplanted from 0.25 to 1 gallon pot This is the first transplant of two. I will let these build.a root ball for 3 to 4 week and then do the final transplant into a 7 gallon pot. Installed blumats as well for irrigation. Crover crop added

Soaked the seeds in water with hydrogen peroxide 10 drops per 200 ml. GHS gave root first both varieties, CG waited 3 days and decided to add a second seed, after 24 hours both gave root :) Solucion - local Argentinian manufacturer. Coconut substrate - Plagron. Water : 110 ppm + 0.5 (HV+HM+HM)=350 ppm. Wanted to twist the sprout with a Lemon Orange spiral because it stretched out, but broke it in half :( 26.06 - 2 Marshmallow and Milky Dreams. P.S. the biggest one is Milky Dreams. Puse las semillas en remojo en agua con peróxido de hidrógeno 10 gotas por 200 ml. GHS dio raíz primero ambas variedades, CG esperó 3 días y decidió añadir una segunda semilla, después de 24 horas ambos dieron raíz :). Solucion - productor local argentino. Sustrato de coco - Plagron. Agua : 110 ppm + 0,5 (HV+HM+HM)=350 ppm. Quise retorcer el brote con una espiral de Naranja Limón porque se estiraba, pero lo rompí por la mitad :( 2 Marshmallow y Milky Dreams. PD: el más grande es Milky Dreams. Замачивал семена в воде с перекисью водорода 10 капель на 200 мл. GHS дал корень первым оба сорта, CG ждал 3 дня и решил добавить вторую семечку, через сутки оба дали корень :) Solucion - местный Аргентинский производитель. Кокосовый субстрат - Plagron. Вода : 110 ppm + 0.5 ( HV+HM+HM)=350 ppm Хотел скрутить росток спиралью Лемон Оранж, потому что он вытянулся, но сломал его пополам :( 2 Marshmallow и Milky Dreams P.S. самый большой это Milky Dreams

The buds are dense,fat & frosty 😋 Some purple color😈 Trichomes 10-20% amber🔬 The smell is DIVINE! Cookie & eucalyptus🍪❄️Super fresh👌
