Borberad ❄️🍒
This time, we've dedicated ourselves to a particularly exquisite temptation: Chilled Cherry – a dreamy collaboration between Zamnesia x Growers Choice. Sounds like a cocktail from an interstellar rooftop bar? It probably tastes like one too!
Chilled Cherry is like the perfect summer night: fruity-sweet with a pleasantly cool breeze on the exhale. Visually, it puts on quite a show – dense buds, a frosty layer of resin, and color nuances that would make even a sunset envious. Its character? Relaxed, creative, a bit dreamy – just the right stuff for chill evenings, deep conversations, or spontaneous philosophical musings about the meaning of watering.
🌿 Genetics & Character
Chilled Cherry is a modern hybrid strain, bred for aroma, appearance, and balanced effects. It combines fruity dessert notes with a pleasant physical relaxation and a clear, cheerful head. Perfect for anyone who wants to chill without merging directly with the couch.
⏳ Flowering Duration & Growth
Flowering time: about 8–9 weeks
Indoor height: usually medium-sized
Outdoor: with enough space, it can also be a bit more impressive
Yield: solid to generous – it knows how to make a statement
🎨 Appearance & Colors
No half measures here, just cherries:
Dense, compact buds
Dark green to purple hues
Coated with a frosty layer of resin, as if it had been briefly popped in the freezer
🍒 Terpene Profile & Aroma
The terpene profile is clearly programmed for enjoyment:
Sweet cherry
Berry & dessert notes
A fresh, slightly cool nuance on the exhale
When opening the jar, it smells more like a pastry shop than a plant nursery.
🧠 Effects
Relaxing, but not debilitating
Mood-lifting
Ideal for chill evenings, creative thought journeys, or simply letting go
Week 1: The Germination Week
* Day 0.1: After soaking for a maximum of 10 hours in 1% H₂O₂, the seed was planted in the substrate, [an Easy Plug]
* Day 0.2: The first patience phase begins. We wait for the seed to break its shell.
* Day 0.4: The first signs of life are visible. The cotyledons break through the substrate after we observed a first bulge in the substrate surface. We then increased the DLI from about 12 to 16 to give the seedling enough light.

Borberad Week 2:
The Birth of a Legend
The cherry has successfully completed its germination week. Our care in climate control (28 °C and 60–65% relative humidity) and the gradual light exposure has perfectly prepared the plant for the upcoming veg phase. We will increase the DLI to 30 by the end of the week. The first [×] nodes have already grown, and as the substrate begins to dry out, we are giving water for the first time with 2ml/l Calmag and 2.5ml/l Hesi Root, possibly 2ml Hesi TNT until the soil is sufficiently moist again. By day 6, the little flower had already rooted through its Easy Cube, so it was transplanted into the 3l fabric pot this week.
* Plant Condition: The plant is vigorous and has unfolded its first leaves. The stem is strong and compact.
* Important Events: Healthy growth, beginning of watering with light additives. Further increasing the DLI to 30 by the end of the week. Transplanting into a 3L fabric pot. With the transplanting into the fabric pot, fertilization will be largely discontinued. Transplanted into Herbis Livingsoil. Our first attempt with this medium.
* Fertilization & Measurements: Osmosis water 20 Micro Siemens hardened with Xpert Nutrients Calmag 2ml/L and 2.5ml/L Hesi Root, possibly 2ml Hesi TNT, conductivity about 1000µS. After transplanting, only Xpert Calmag is used to harden the osmosis water to 500µS.
pH value about 6.3, only with Calmag 6.5
* Adjustments: Earlier transplanting than before.
Borberad Week 4
We seem to be having a few starting issues with the Livingsoil.
But we're still optimistic about getting it up and running.

Borberad Week 5
Switching to Living Soil is not as easy for us as we thought. But we won't give up.
First, the substrate temperature is increased to 22°C. The heaters are coming. Currently, it's at 17-18°C. This might be too low for proper active soil life. Except for fungus gnats, which unfortunately feel right at home. Nematodes are coming, and the soil is covered with cocoa shell mulch; this provides potassium during flowering but is prone to mold, so from now on, it will mainly be watered through the wicks.
Nice little plant with a lovely color play and a stretch that shouldn't be underestimated. Pleasant and noticeable scent during flowering. Once again, only dried taste samples.

Borberad There was only osmosis water last week and 48 hours of light before the harvest.
