WEEK 1:
hey guys and girls i am back and i start with a strain which is very promising... BLUEBERRY COOKIES FROM DINAFEM......you can not get wrong with blueberries and cookies right?!😄
The grow:
I use Coco from Canna like allways and the same fertilizers like allways...BUT I will try something new with this strain. I will clone the best Blueberry Cookies plant and make a comparison between "chemical" fertilizer and organic fertilizer.
The contenders are Advanced hydroponics of holland on the "chemo" site and Greenbuzz Liquids on the Organic site
So have a nice one people till next week
Hey guys, what's up ?
this week, the ladys grew well (5-6 centimeters), doubling their size💪. But it is still too warm and too dry in my region and therefore the conditions are not optimal😒. I will now counteract and use a humidifier with climate regulation to get the maximum out of the plants .
They have a bit more hungry than last week so I increased the Ec to 0.6, the PH stays at 5.8 ... hopefully the weather will change soon ... well friends don't drink and drive smoke and fly. See you soon😎
hey folks😎
the last week was exremely warm but now it becomes colder finally🙏...
the girls doubled their size.
i increased the ec to 0.7 and ph is at 5.8 because the girls wanted it
no smell at all from these little beauties....
next week i will put them into their final pot size...only one more week and i will put them into flower ..they grow like crazy.....💪
I have used the humidifier with success. I was able to lower the temperatures and slightly increase the humidity..
nothing more to say t this point ...
have a good one people 😎
Hi people,
This strain looks like a real "Cookies"...short, big leaves and the smell is sweet, not fruity yet but sweet..😎
The Grow:
everything is fine and almost on point and the ..i noticed a calmag deficiency😕 at the end of week 3 but fixed it with some extra nutrients...so no problem..😎.
All of the girls very INDICA DOMINANT ..HUUUGE LEAVES.... ..i am a big guy and as you can see in the picture section, my hand is as big as the leave😱.....The smell becomes very intense ...when you rub the leaves there is this smell that reminds me of some very sweet cake... a classic cookies😍....so thats it for now
have a nice one people
hey guys...😎
this week was horrorible as fuck..... another heat wave in my country ......(climate change is a bitch)
thats why i have a lot of problems with heatstress (34 degrees in the morning and 25 degrees celsius in the night ) and a way too warm medium (up to 24 celsius,so the oxygen levels are very low in the root zone ) ...the ph is bouncing like fuck .....
i am very diapointed.....cal/mag issues because of the ph bouncing....and the list goes on and on and on..........
But hey lets hope for the best but prepare for the worst....
They streched over 20 centimetres in one week.....
well have a good one guys till next week ..hopefully with better news😄
hi guys ,
the heat wave is over .....hopefully for ever and ever.......😅the BC Strain has also huge problems with the heat stress ....one of the worst grows of my life ...Just to be CLEAR !!!IT IS NOT THE FAULT OF THE SEED COMPANY ... the environment is..........i will wait for another week and if they do not recover i will start all over again....see you guys
hi guys n gals😎,
This week was a blast ....the girls are doin goooood ...
but with all the issues at the beginning ,i do not expect the biggest yield BUT look at these freakin resinous buds 😍.. they smell like cookies (extremly sweet, no stench,only sweet like if you enter a bakery😍 really cool..
The Grow:
So i raised the EC to 1.5....that is alot for my experience .But I have to get used to the American varieties because they are much more hungry in my opinion than the European varieties....
and they need alot of magnesium and sulfur ........
PH ist 5.8 and stays where it is...
This week i will flush them properly to get rid of excess salt built up ...i do this every now and then (maybe every 3 weeks) to avoid problems and it does not harm the plant at all soo...😎..
nothing more to say at the moment so have a nice one my friends
p.s. if you guys have anny question feel free to ask (photographie or growing )🙏
hi guys,
Hey friends ,
look at this beauty !!!
it is not a production monster .just to make sure!!!!it is not the fault of the strain but the heat wave this year is to blame!!! .... so they will be finished a little earlier .. I do not care😎 ... it's not always just about the harvest quantity ... I once looked whether she produces seeds or has other stess diseases .. but none of it 👍...
the smell of the plant is increasing more and more (a very sweet flavor) the buds are very hard and fully packed with resin. I can not complain😄
The grow:
i flushed the girls last week with ro water because of some salt build up ...
Ph 5.8 like allways
Ec :i lowered the ec by 0.1 because it turnes out that EC1-4 to 1.5 is her limit in my setup....
I do not want to stress her too much
RH: is at 50 % ..it is raining outside so no chance to get the humidity to where i want it but the girls should be ok😎
i will cut off the nitrogen at the end of the next week because of the premature ripening going on....do not want end up with black ash😁
so have a good one people till next week
hey people how are you,
the ladies are almost done .. I think they will not need more than 2 weeks to be finished ... but it does not matter because they look wonderful and I'm looking forward to try some buds from the ladys. .. sorry there is a bad news .... my "main model" has bud rot and the whole main bud is fucked ... but luckily I have two very nice "backup" models ... the bud rot was created when I removed a leaf from the bud to shoot a better picture ..... First world problems😎😅...
Ph 5.8 like allways
EC:1.5 but i will lower it 0.9 next week and the week after next 0.6 EC ..last 2 days 0.0 EC(allways phed water)
RMH: can not get under 50 % right now the humidity outside is too high(ideal 45-35)
THE Smell:
she smells like a sweet cake or cookie with a bit of fruitiness but 90% sweet ...wonderful 😍
The buds are rock hard and full of resin on every pheno....so no complains😅😎
the phenos look simillar in every aspect ...very stable strain👍
so have a good one guys till next
p.s. feel free to give me a "like" or a comment if you like my pics and so ....😘
Hey guys,
we have not heard from each other for a long time .... I was very ill😷💀 .. first the flu then food poisoning.soo I'm well again and back on track💪. The girls are already in the dry room but I took some nice pictures of them before I choped them a few days ago. since they are premature I have already started with the flush .. the smell is wonderful ... extremely sweet and slightly fruity .... a friend of mine describes the smell as "deep sweet" and so I would describe it too.
The grow :
PH:5.8
EC: 0.4 only some calmag
RH:60%... too high
see u next week guys and girls have a nice one😎
hey guys and girls ,
the final week before harvest is there...yeeehaaa😃
the plants are doing good ...a strong genetic..💪
i flush them every 2 days with 10 litres of ph'ed water per plant ...i still give them some cal mag to prevent mold 👆....calcium deficiency can cause budrot....be aware of that...
Next pics will be dry flower pics😬 ...yes we are too fast but she is almost ready to go .....i think the heat stress and high humidity causes this premature flowering...
but she looks wonderful....all of them....and all plants did well even with these temperature problems ....
so have a nice one and till next week guys and girls😎👍
The Blueberry Cookies is a true masterpiece! A strong Indica with extreme effects. some of our friends do NOT LIKE it because they start trippin and get paranoia from smokin it ...winy fucks....😅...
I love it because it helps me alot to deal with my migrane attacks....BUT everybody loves the TASTE and SMELL...(read down below)
The Grow:
If you followed my grow, you know that not everything went well. Heat stress was the big problem which caused ph fluctuations and a much too high humidity which resulted in an early ripening ... but nevertheless I am very satisfied with the result .. .The plants are easy to cultivate and have beautiful colors at the end of the bloom as you can see in the pictures. The plants are moderately hungry. But they need an extra portion of magnesium and sulfur in weeks 3-7 .. use epsom salts or a bloom booster to get the best results.
Smell and Taste:
The Blueberry Cookies has a very complex smell...After a month of fermentation ...the smell is extremely lemony with hints of some other fruits but I cannot define it more precisely(like berries😅).
if you crumble it, you can smell a earthy note that mixes with the citrus scent ... simply delicious.👍👌
The bud structure:
the structure of these buds can be discribed as "hard as a Motherfucker"....Rock solide..... Dense aaaand heavy man....popcorn sized buds weigh more than 1 gram ....really impressive😍💪
The look of the buds reminds me of a classic kush....Wonderful!
I hope you enjoyed the journey with the Blueberry Cookies as much as I did ... I can fully recommend this strain. soooo see ya guys and gals ....
p.s. do not miss the other diaries on my site ...they will be updated within a couple of days.😎
Fantastic we have another Blueberry Cookies grow up and running on the grow diary platform 👍
Thank you for representing our genetics, we won't let you down and can't wait to see this grow in full bloom 👌
Let the flower show begin 🤗
All the best ✌️

Hey another diary from you that i'll be keeping with an eye on 👊 ;). Yesterday night I planted 2 of this seeds with another 2 of her ocean grown sisters. Again i must say that you do an amazing job with the photography, your photos look awesome as your plants do!. All the best again & Green Love! 💚💚💚.
Looking so good my friend :) I am very happy that you continued with the grow and we can see some more of the pretty flowers!
When you do your 3 week flush, is this with a calmag+, or calmag+ and low strength nutrients?
I have my first plants in only CocoPeat (with you inspiring me) using the GHE, they are looking super good (no diary, unfortunately) and I am getting up to the 3 week mark for them now.
Best of luck with the weather man, happing growing and blessings.
@TuPuff,
Buffer problems are soooo manifold brother 😄. Bacteria and beneficial fungus imbalances in the medium can cause this. A too low carbonate hardness can be the problem which means that their is a too small amount of soluble minerals in the water (osmosis water has this problem sometimes, but not always). that's why you preventively put some calmag into the osmosis water to stabilize the pH ... the professionals analyze their water in the laboratory. The amount and composition of the fertilizer is based on this water analysis that is how the pros prevent buffer problems ... but that's nothing for us homegrowers, is just too expensive ...have a nice one brother👍😎
@Wachsemilian, Thanks a lot bro! 🙏👊😎 OK I will only flush with pure RO water when EC is HIGHER than what I want on the runoff. 👍
Could I ask what you do if the peat lost its buffer, ph swings experienced, I saw at a friends grow, but seems it happens because of poor watering, pots drying out too much. Did a 1:1 flush with CalMag+ (at around 300ppm) and even a 4:1 on the very bad ones. They responded very well, I was just curious how the pro's would fix the PH / buffer problem, these are one or two mother plants that were affected.
Thanks again for all your advice, I was researching this so thought I ask. :)
Happy growing man and thanks again you really inspire me!
@TuPuff,
I know that this method is controversial. But until now I have never had problems with this technique👍. but it is important to flush only when salt builds up in the medium otherwise the plant will be damaged .. have a nice one brother :)😎
Nice diary ! Look at this finished product looks stellar man . I love seeing great genetics doing there thing giving people great results ! Best of luck to you on your future projects !
Happy Growing!
-V.G
Beautiful work with our Blueberry Cookies 🤗
Good luck with the harvest mate and please drop back in with your thoughts on this Dinafem girl once fully dry and cured of course 👊
All the best ✌️
