Day 0. I left the soil to warm up and settle up a bit, plus microbes had time to start working. Always check the middle of pot for that bit of soil to be super fine and airy, roots don't need obstacles. Will update slowly with every big move and that's my checkpoint grow, I want to know, can I and how much ;) Target - 1000 from 8 plants Time - 2 month veg + 2 month flower Nutes - full range of biobizz Soil - biobizz all mix + worm castings Will Lst, top, supercrop, lolitop, defoliate them a lot and in rounds. This time I didn't go for the lair of air stones, those pots work really great. Fingers Crossed Main thing - Thank You #RoyalQueenSeeds for your beans ! Day 2. First Gorilla showed up, beans are very small, we shall see how strong genetics is ... One more time proved myself, that germination is only for old beans if you are not sure with rate, otherwise its waste of time in my mind ... Day 4. Sprout rate - 100 %,but i still didn't liked like all 4 cookies started. We shall see... ;))) Day 6. All good, no big things yet, girls small, but grow, 3 out of 4 cookies didnt want to loose shell , so had to help them and they look lankier compared to gorilla girls. Every day i lower lamps a bit, would say today eve is final and quantum boards run on 50% dimer for now. Will increase it by 5 % every few days, at the end of week two ussually its full blast, sometimes i keep it till week 3. We shall see ... Still happy, moisture, moisture, moisture .... ;)

Day 8. All good, girls are ok, just i strugle to keep moistering them properly, work takes too much time away .. Next watering will bring in BioBizz Root Juice. Happy growing ! Day 9. Slowly, but girls grow, watering tomorrow with first dose of Root Juice. Should start to kick in ;) Day 10. First nutes planted ;)) in next feed i will bring in couple more players, this time only 1ml/l Root Juice. Ph 6.5 Moisture moisture moisture ;) Day 13. So many things ... One gorilla went selftoping, dont know what to do ??? And i need reasons .. My quess is A. Wind damage, she was closiest to fan. B. Water spray too intense C. Light burn with spray combined I followed my ussual stuff, never had such mutation, had buds on leaves, had triple tops, had branches from leaves even, but they all had new grows, this one has only two leaves .. And this was the biggest bean and she looked fine till day 11, wanted even to show how bean size matters, but now all is gone, should i top her, or leave that natural mainlining ?? When i spray her, two top leaves fall down and lower nods new grow is exposed, so lst her like this ? Please help !!! Other 3 gorillas looks really ok, smallish, but ok. Cookies grow funky aswell, looks like two days behind gorillas. Thought to give them first nutes, but now i will wait a bit ... Started rotating girls every day.

Nutrients : Same as usual , it is still a plant even if it's a weird plant so sane feeding than a regular one and go like that until the end except if a problem accrues ( over or under feeding ) and in that case you can easily do the balance. No need to top now as the 2 top leaves will help for photosynthesis so just wait for the 2 stems to be well developed before considering cutting them. No need to LST now but it will be a good option as you will have 2 sides with that 2 stems so maybe you will bend them ro help building a shape. Btw it is a genetic "issue" mostly weird that will maybe slow a bit the grow but nothing harmful

Day 15. Girls are bad, will recalibrate ph meter and give first nutes, very strange grow, looks like all 4 cookies want to selftop aswell .. Cant get a brake ... On some girls see nutes def, so my guess is that ph meter went wrong and i have all those mutations or shitty seeds ;))))))))))))) Day 16. Recalibrated ph pen and fed them with first full nutes. Lets see, cookies looks really sad, 3 gorillas are ok, bunny gorilla will have two main stems - funky ;)) Day 17. Girls responded well to first feed, still sad situation with most of cookies. I plan to veg them long, so bad grow rate is not a problem, but health is, one girl is in tragic state, lets hope she will bounce back ! Day 18. Girls start to love life, looks like they responded well to nutes. Worst Cookie show sighns of progress, maybe again she will be that Black Swan story ? ;)) Would start training today before watering, but will give them one more nutes and then will start.

Day 22. My garden is ok, but the amount of work that i dont do shows up on smaler plants ... I dont moister them, water rearaly, no lst is done yet, but .. I finished my hardest week at work and this week ill have all the time needed.. Leaves are droopy, ill water them tommorow straight after LST training session . Hope to sort grow rate with nutes and lifting lights. Tommorow ill break my mini rule and give them nutes after training. Ussualy i do it before plain water cycle, but i cant wait 3-4 days more, Worst Cookie is almost back to normall, want to feed her a bit more asap... Growing is all about breaking rules and adapting at certain time ... ;) Other girls okeish, cookie still too stretchy, but stemps getting fater, maybe ill bush them out in other 5-6 weeks. Happy growing ! Day 23. Didnt breake my rule, pure ph 6.4 water and spray with first hard bending, girls took it perfectly. Next watering will make magic ;)) Girls lost few leaves here and there, all branches where turned to light, leaves touching soil removed aswell.

Day 29. Girls grow slow, but most important .... Could be i overwatered with 2.5 liters of water or i stonly watered them twice ;))) Girls didnt drop pot weight till day 31, on days 32 morning ill do new round of lst. Will feed them hard, will defoliate all bigger old leaves which are covering new grow, plants are strong enough to take pain now ;))) Its sad situation a bit, i got flue and with that corona madness my mood was very down and i didnt work with plants at all, anyway, they made to that stage where harm can be done and its time. Gorillas looks okeish even without work, really good strain at least for now. Cookies are very picky, its hardest to veg strain from all i ever tried, lets see, maybe food and heavy training will make them fit ;) Day 32. Girls are finaly light, so heavy training and huge feeding. I dont know what hapend, but they refused to drink for 8 days almost, one cookie has obvious sighns of overwatering and if to be honest all cookies are crap, gorillas grow amazing, especially self toped one, she made natural mainlining and covers space perfectly. Guess in next 2-3 days they will blast off, but i cant feed silica till more branches will grow up, cookies too small, lets wait and see... Day 33. Girls loved food, plenty new grow, all tops are facing sun again , they will bush up in next few days. Next watering - silica and cal mag and next after - fish mix. Day 34. Girls are drinking again, so i gave 1ml/l fishmix. Cookies show strange colours and on fresh grow you can see cal mag def. Next feed will give them extra, normaly TopMax should be enough... I dont like Cookies genetics so much, that i planted last 5th bean ;)) Want to check two things : 1. Are my lights strong to grow something not under direct light 2. Are those Cookies such crap, that i should never try any seeds from RQS. I planted 4 new girls, no work,no top - nothing will be done to them. Hope to see last Cookie bean growing beter than almost two years old Incredible Bulk x2 and last StrawberyCough bagseed bean, otherwise its sad quality for such big house. Cant find why all 4 Cookies grow so slow compaired to all 4 perfect Gorillas. Was using new worm castings, too ritch ?? maybe thats the answer in test grow i put pure BIOBIZZ AllMix soil, nothing extra. Had to top one Cookie, new grow was all damaged and didnt want to develop, will harm them even harder next time before silica and cal mag, which i thought not to use in this run ... Lets see .... Happy growing !

Day 36. New round of training, girls started to strech, so i can form them and by "them" - i mean Gorillas ;))) Cookies are sad song, in control garden Strawberry Cough is out, so i keep my dirty mouth shut till results will come up. Hope best to come, my 8 week veg plan extented to 9 at least ... Plan to feed them Silica Acid and CalMag next round, so increased numbers of nutes will be used only next week, need to do pure water runs aswel ;) One lovely thing - half of Bunny Gorilla gives 3 shots from one nod, other half grows normaly, lovely mutation. Day 38. Yesterday girls got water with CalMag, so they started to look better, deficencies where showing up on all plants, so had to feed them up a bit. Cookies long way to healthyness, but at last two off them started to grow. So next water will be with silica acid. Tomorrow should do some heavy lst, girls started to strech, can lower them again ,think it will be last mass lowering, next i will try to form as many tops from all that mass on Gorilla side and i really put many work to make Cookies look better. Control garden is ok, all 4 beans showed up. Think to veg them for 2-3 weeks only, but my main target was to see will last Cookie show unhealthy grow in new run compaired to other strains or i should blame too ritch worm casting, cant find any other reason for so many grow issues. Think any other gardener would chuck that crap and started new grow, but two cookies woke up, maybe two others will at least heal up by switch time... Lets see... Day 39. Heavy LST , HST , defoliation and new position, think they will stay that way till the end. Some girls get theirs form, Bunny Gorilla looks amazing, plan to veg them 3 more weeks from today, so day 55 they will get darkness and light rythm will change.

Day 43. so main change, i lost my mobile and i had really loads of photos and videos of ex grows. i blacklisted it, but still... from now i will reduce amount of post and updates, it is stupid, but i cant risk ... Girls all week on diet, looks like only one Gorilla is starving a bit and would need more, but in my plans last watering with molases this time only. They already had runs with silica only. cal mag only x2. Think worm castings was an isue, control garden grows really fine, will be my smallest plants ever, they will have 3 weeks in total for veg. Happy growing and dont loose your mobiles, huge pain .... Day 48. Gorillas are really nice and i cant denny it, but .... Cookies are worst experience ever... They just dont want to grow and show up new issue the second you fight one.... I even made control garden with more than years old beans of Incredible Bulk and bagseed Strawberry Cough. Both strains grow ok, but not Cookie !!! Thats honestly wrong genetics, unless someone prove me wrong, open for your advices ... Hard training again, still on pure water diet with calmag or silica or molases as small bonus while no feed for two weeks + .... Lights are out because training took longer than i wanted. ... Next week they go to 24 hours darkness and light is changed to 12/12. That was last week of really hard training, now i will wait for green mass of leaves to cover stems and hope they will make some buds ;)) Choose your beans wisier than me ... Happy growing !!!

Another grower told me the same think , his cookies from RQS were not vigorous , they were mutating , so I guess you need to avoid the RQS coockies , every breeder have a "fail" in their catalogue so I guess that one is the RQS fail ( from my experience , not the only one but other than that RQS is legit and reliable ) Don't ask for refund as they are not refunding , ask for a new pack or a pack of a different strain to be sure to not fail again : I woul have personnaly asked for a pack of the failed seeds + a pack of any strain to compensate the time lost , they can say no but they can say yes

Day 50. Gorillas goes by plan, Cookies is still a pain every time i see them ... Control garden will go to green house on day 54, rest of girls will get 24 hours of darkness and will be forced to flower .. Nothing good to be said, but i will try to feed them, hope nitrogen toxicity wont kick in ... Both strains are overfed very easy, cookies are overfed without food even ... ;))) Lets see .. Happy growing ! p.s. my old phones mic is broken, so put volume down while watching video ;))) Day 52. Girls were very hungry, so heavy feed and rain for them. Lights where dimed to 50% while leaves had water on them. Some Cookies started to stretch, inner node distance is huge, maybe i will have second time only in my life hermie.... Anyway, hope to switch them by day 55. This grow i cant get girls to pray, its always somthing, growing is really hard sometimes .. Good luck everyone ! Happy Easter ! Day 53. Girls sometimes looks ok, but still far ftom i have used to .. Couple more days of veg. CalMag next watering, still have some redish stemps.. Control garden will be moved to green house, too small, let them veg under natural sun, while those will finish ..

Day 57. After 24 hours of darkness light been changed to 12/12. Day 1 of flower. Gorillas are really big and healthy, but Cookies are just sick. Look at the size of control garden ... Cookie is the only plant which will go outside. Maybe she will grow better under real sun, gave her GorillaMax clone companion, hope they both make it ;) Plant to give heavy feed today, still veg mix, no bloom. Happy growing ! Day 59. Everything starts to kick in, girls are praying, cookies are stretching and still mostly with deficiencies or food issues ... Even control gardens worst plant is twice bigger than Cookie .... One good thing - happy that real RQS quality and communication showed up not in my outdoors garden. Theirs beans are not for me anymore. i wouldn't recommend to buy as well. Fact. Day 62. Girls are really happy finally !!! Garden runs nice and my only worry is how to defoliate and lolitop so packed plants. Thinking its my last low grow atempt. Next run i will bump them up a bit for better access , we shall see. Broke my new mobile in two days , so limited info and photo still. Control garden is on 150% overdrive, girls are growing every minute, RC is staying outside with mutated as hell grow, anyway she has all summer and 50 l pot aswell for such long run.

Day 65. Girls are okish, calmag mini def is still after me, now even Gorillas show off some reddish leaves stems, hope they just cant keep up with speed and amount... In flowering its bad to have unhealthy plants, so CalMag today and full bloom tommorrow eve. Girls started to drink really fast. Control garden is my joy now, Outside Cookie is a pity tho.... We shall see.... In plans to raise lights back to 60 cm from canopy, girls stretched a bit, need to adjust and i just cant wait couple more weeks till first round of defoliation :))) hope to do it on day 18 of flower latest.. Canopy is too packed, need better air and light. Thinking to get heavy artillery out, epsom salt dresing :)) thats my last hope to fight that reddish-violet and make it green again. It takes two weeks to kick inn, but works always for me... Day 66. Girls are happy, hungry and in full blast. Control garden has such healthy green its hard to describe... Cookies on other hand streched as f@%k, will have to lolitop them really high, so no proper grow and small harvest, taste is the only thing that can save them... Worthless for now.... All girls streched like 5 cm in one day, they loved CalMag. Lights been raised like 7 cm. Lets see... Day 68. Changed plans a bit, girls got silica acid with plain water and they loved it! They are happy campers and grow really fast, now only to have patience till defoliation. Girls are super packed, will have to care about them 2x more than avarage, thinking to plug in conditioner, but its still coldish weather outside, so hope to last two more weeks without that beast, no tv or orher aplaincies while this beast runs :)))) Day 68, evening. First time checked my girls after light switch to flower and i am lost, will they make it? Canopy height is like 30-35 cm, they had small lolitopings on lower levels during vegetation ( see week 8 first video just mute it, they where striped like this on week 5 as well) in video its even hard to see, but its jungles!!!! Have one fresh air fan, double fan set with carbon out, inside two standing fans and powerful conditioner, will i make it with only defoliation or should i clear them hard aswell? Never growed such low and dence plants before. Please advice or show diary to read. Plus a 30 days old Incredible Bulk, almost no feed, no germination or transplanting, straight to soil and no direct light above. Hope you will see this same strain grower :) Peace.

Hey that's great work ! basically everything is going perfectly. You're in the middle of the flower stretch so anything you remove from the plant will stunt the growth which is too bad. The best you can do now is to LST, just slightly bend the new growth so you're comfortable with the height. There are these specialized nets you can buy which are handy, otherwise you can use "plant ties" to bend them. after the flower stretch is over if you really want you can remove the bottom set of leaves. Right now is the right time to identify the bottom set of (future) buds and use a razor blade to remove them. They dont grow big anyway and if you take them off the other ones get bigger. Just buckle your seat belt for the ride ! Hope this helps ! 🚀

Day 71. Yesterday girls got 950 ppm, its my first attempt to feed them full so early, but Gorillas looked to bright and i dont care about Cookies anymore. At the moment Cookies are overfed and with biggest inner nodes that i ever grew. I knew that this strain is far from being compact, but not like this.... Tomorrow they will be striped, just not the NotFloweringCookie and all girls from control garden. Lets see... Day 72. Defoliation and all related... Hope they will like it... If all 4 Cookies you would put into one bundle, any Gorilla would be bigger.... Waist of time... Check Control Garden size, its 3 weeks veged plants vs Cookie..... Day 73. Girls are happy and hopefully will start to bulk up, smell is getting stronger... They took defoliation as champs! Heavy feeding for next two weeks, with only one pure watering inbetween...

Day 78. Just runs fine. Day 42 for Control garden. Biggest Incredible Bulk is amazing plant, very strong, should be really nice to harvest, 3 weeks veg is my shortest ever.... Thinking to leave them untouched, hope they will mature quicker, even without direct light, they grow amazing.. For now just heavy feed, reached 1100, normally 1200 is my max. Day 79. Girls are fine, plain water today. Thinking to leave Control Garden with all leaves, but despite them growing not under direct light they are 70+ cm height. Now they cause shadow and block air move... In doubts a bit... Day 83. Control garden is a lot behind and still stretching , took 12 leaves in total from 3 plants. Now second canopy will have more light, should really chop bottom branches and leaves, but maybe will do it on second defoliation round... All girls getting heavy feed 1250 ppm. Gorillas still too hungry, Cookies overfed as always... Hard grow for lazy hard stoner :)))

Day 85. Just before lights photo's for better true colour understanding, Bio Grow and AlgaMic is out, after finishing this cycle CalMag and Silica out too. Hope its not too early, but girls are really healthy, time to pump up the flowers not leaves :) Day 86. Girls just flying, very happy with Gorillas and Control Garden looks really funky, they stand under no direct light on them... and still flowers looks amazing. Got my new mobile, had to try out :) Next week very busy at work, no updates I think. Day 89. So again i made mistake, while watering them last time accidently left heater on, they overdried , plus temps where at +33c ... Bunny Gorilla looks bad, Gorilla Max got biggest pistil damage, half went brown. Thinking i took nitrogen too early out, but we shall see. On other hand all Control Garden took it well even Cookies with theirs waxy leaves stood thurst nice as such stress can be ... Planing to do defoliation next week, but if Gorillas started to eat themselves already will leave them as it is. Future will show .. Happy Growing !!!

Day 92. In video you can see how brown is Gorilla Max pistils and how sad looking is pale Bunny Gorilla, both girls are drinking fast, so maybe they will finish with decent result, that was two strongest plants, sad ... All other girls are ok, Control garden is huge, side colas , which gets more light caught up tops standing in dark, funny to observe. So many plants bring humidity up, will do defoliation in 4 days on my new days off. Silica and CalMag out. Day 94. Girls are okish, Bunny Gorilla refused to drink pure water, pot was still heavy, i will check in the morning, but she went into some stress or lockdown a bit, but maybe its just my paranoia , morning weighting will show. Defoliation is a must, but i know now, that this time its overcrowded, cant access pots for lifting, max 10 plants and i think for 2 month veging those airpots are too small, i think they have even only like 15 liters of actual soil in them despite 20 liters on price tag, next round i am back to fabric pots , have new 30 liters waiting in dark room for theirs turn. Day 94 Evening. Morning for me, but girls where going to sleep, some pots already ultra light, same mistake in one grow ??? Never !!! ;)))))) All girls got heavy feed, managed to mix up 1000 ppm from 4 components only, huge amounts involved, very hard without BioGrow, think it was too early for sure to take N out. With Bunny was real headache, but at the end she was light as most others... Overthinking not good, better to flow with them. Honestly think such version of grow would be better with single plant or higher electric capacity ... Don't want to move place, so next grow again change of tactics..... ;))))) Toping on 5 nod with mini LST and veg max 5 weeks. Loads of bottom buds are smaller than seed from which they grow. Think to lolitop all that crap. Two days till next watering to make decision ... Day 95. Girls are happier than ever, they needed more food, thats all. Now i think i will do feed/feed/water regime till end of week 8, then heavy flush, its summer at mines and i can do it properly outside. Girls bulk up every day. Thinking to lift Gorillas tonight and all lights as well, Incredible Bulks and Strawberry Cough doing magic in shadow , what will they do with a bit of more light then ??? ;) Day 96. Socialism in my garden ;)))) Cookies are crap, Gorillas are The Joy, all Control Garden makes me wanna sing as well... No more defoliation or lolitoping, they are fattening up and i want to see final weight and nice colours .... Heavy feed at the end of this day or next morning . Happy growing !

Day 99. Garden is flying. Nothing else to mention now, you can easy spot - they bulk up ! Heavy feed in the morning, then 2 more cycles of feed/pure_water left till flush for Gorillas, all others at least a week behind. Hate to split waterings and feed, but even lazy person sometimes is forced to ... ;)) Happy growing ! Day 100. Disaster in Garden !!!! Had enough of RQS Royal Cookies. Two of them went Hermie. So current stats : 5 out 5 are mutated 2 out 5 currently Hermie 5 out of 5 overfed without any food even Because of that shitty genetics, had to make Control Garden. Even Cookie from CG which is in green house still grow mutated and leaves are on max healthy green side. Had no nutes for last 30 days, still haven't returned to normal ... So two girls chopped, hope they didn't pollinate all garden... In photos you can find bananas... Those air pots works really great, all space is used and roots are really nice. Just i think i will go to 30 liters next time. Have fabrics, but my doubts of those air pots are gone. Bad day for sure. 15 weeks, 50 pounds for seeds, 30 for soil, 50 for nutes. Thats my bill without electrics ..... #RQS is crap !!!!! James from them just asked where i bought the seeds, never had balls to replay back ... Ironic theirs girls has BALLS and it makes me angry ... Day 101. Damage is done, i see many seeds growing, it took me unprepared .... I dont sell weed, but to check every bud before grind is lame for me ... F@%k you RQS. Never again, despite having like 10 more theirs beans of 4 dif strains .... to the bin now !!!! Day 102. Girls are nice, but i see seeds forming and it makes me sad. Doubt it will be many updates till review. Happy Growing !!!!

I'm feeling pretty shitty about Dr.seeds as well. Out of 10 feminized GG#4's I got 7 good seeds, 3 noticeably bad seeds and one out of the 7 is a male. Void them out as well

Day 106. Girls are really fatten up, even bottom airy buds, get some mass into them on Gorillas. Control Garden is like two weeks behind, so i will feed those 3 longer, all other girls in the middle of this week will get theirs last feed. So approx end of week 18 is chop day for RQS run. Very sad situation, trying not to think about pollination . Never had pollinated garden before, so its hard to make any calls ... Time will show. Day 108. Girls avoided pollination with minimal damage .. Found like 20 real seed spots, hope it will be double that max in total. They are fading and maturing, one more big mistake, left them too bushy , they needed lolitoping higher, loads , millions of airy smallest of all smallest buds ;)) One Cookie going crazy purple .. Pure water and looks like all job is done, still checking for hermies every day ... You search for mistakes instead of enjoying , stupid situation really ... Day 109. Three Gorillas are ready, i don't know how, but calaxies went pinky,violet,grey, didn't mature enough, so really airy and leafy buds.... All pistils are brown and curly Trichs are milky with at least 30% amber. I think they just couldn't make it ; Too weak light, Too small pots, Went too gentle with lolitop, mostly airy shitty outdoor type buds, Had pollination, could stop them from maturing and just putting efforts into seeds. Made mistake with watering almost dried them out on week 5 of flower, after that many pistils died and not many new flowers formed. Bad attempt with CheckPoint intention, back to drawing board ... ;)) Night 110. Girls are ok, smell amazingly, fades slowly but steady. One Cookie went absolute purple, really nice colours, but no buds tho .... And don't know how i did my homework, but after checking seedfinder for flowering time info i don't know how i decided to go with this strains ... Gorillas are amazing, just low yielders. Control Garden is flying, some buds are real size grenades, pure joy to watch them grow ... Happy Growing !

Day 113. Third wave of heavy flush, girls get from 30 to 50 liters in time-lapse of one hour. Planing to chop them after 10 days, two more heavy flushes ... Control Garden is a beauty ... They are a bit behind, but hopefully next week i will start to flush them aswell. Incredible Bulk standing in front of fan is most matured aka damaged ;))) Not many seeds i see, so i calmed down a bit, still free cheese is only in trap, fact ... Day 115. Girls fade nicely, today got 4th wave of flush, best case scenario in 8 days chop, worst - in 4. Busy work week, so it will be hard to find time, wet triming takes to much from me, i do it too carefully ... Happy Growing !

Update : 9 stars easy ! Royal Gorilla Royal Queen Seeds Grow expectation - 100 g/plant Gorilla Max - 88 g. Lanky Gorilla - 108 g. Bunny Gorilla - 104 g. NoName aka Smallest Gorilla - 101 g. This strain grows really nice, plant loves training and respond quick to it. Because of couple things this strain didn't show the best part : 1. I overdried them at week 5 of flower. Damage was done, two best plants, being most dry , suffered most. 2. I didn't feed them enough, they were on diet because of picky Cookies, hate two waterings, so its socialism at mines, all are even. 3. Too light lolitop and no second wave of defoliation could lead to smaller colas. 4. Pollination by unstable Cookie genetics led to lower harvest. Overall i am happy with them. This strain has no special needs, plants repeated themselves nicely, so genetics is strong and stable. Maybe would give 9 stars, but airy buds and small top colas drop rate. This is far from GG#4 , but smell and pinky/violet calaxies makes bud really attractive for eyes and nose. Bud is sticky, oily. Rate of Top cola vs Bottom Crap is quile high . About 70 % of crop is top colas and its really good. Colas are long and well packed, just thin. Most of girls had 80-90 milky and rest amber. Weight could be better, but pollination and late watering, had their influence 100%. Smoke report : Smoke is strong, taste is wonderfull, so fruity and light. A bit of cinnamon, vanilla and some fruity berries with citrus in them. Really really nice. Bud is very crystally and oily,i like them really. Overall rate : This strain will make starting grower smile all journey long and result is quite decent for hash type, low producer strain. Bud will smack you down, she is strong. Maybe won't repeat it, but its not a fail !

Day 114. Gorilla Max is totally ready, maybe she would bulk up, but last white pistil went brown at least a week ago. Time to trim. Bud not solid, but kinda hard, bottom all airy and small, but she smells and sticky like hell, so fruity ... Had to chop her, because got tiered of seeds everywhere, so cleaned my draws and fridge, from 45 found bag seeds started new diary, had to make space for them. Want to try out 12/12 from start and even if i would leave them under natural sun , they would stretch too much in first stage of grow and would repeat that grow patern indoors. Scissors hash was nice, super soft, hard to roll, all stays on hands. On this plant found two seeds, maybe some hidden in colas, but its not even close to bad that i was imagining at the beginning. My watering damage is obvious, Gorilla Max and Bunny were best plants, now - they are smallest... Last weeks very important, till week 5 of flower and that incident they were leaders, overdrying don't work . Hope i will learn this lesson. Day 120. Last 3 girls are down. Gorilla Max - 88 g. Of dry bud. Think she and Bunny will be smallest of them all. Buds are airy, but very sticky and all calaxies went pink. So in spliff it looks really funky. Needed to lolitop them higher, maybe overall look and cola structure would be better then. Lanky Gorilla is a champ, no doubt. Think this girl should beat 4 ounces easy. Day 126. So total of all 4 plants is 401. A bit less than was hoping, but target achieved. Update will follow.

Day 120. All Gorillas are choped. Now i have new worry - my bag seed Strawberry Cough went hermie aswell. So whatever it is in 10 days Control garden will be finished. Hope to take Cookies in 3 days, one ended up in really nice frosty nugs, other is a pity to look at ... Anyway both Cookies big fail , not even close to my 100g/plant target, Control garden with 3 not 8 weeks of veg will destroy them in weight and size , maybe frost is really nice on one of 5 Cookies and that is only positive side. Plus this plant is going nice violet too... I will monitor Strawberry for naners, but plans has changed, need to properly wash tent from pollen before next run and half of next is flowering outside already , another is almost ready to be poted to final spot. Water water water and patience Day 123. New day - new worry ... Today found second largest Incredible Bulls cola damaged by BudRot ... Sad story ... Now i am contemplating last two days in my head and : 1. Third time in my life i touch bud and squeeze it a bit and third time i have bud rot ... 2. While watering i hit it with watering can. So double trouble for amazingly huge bud and he is gone. I don't know why , but every time when disaster happens - my phone is flat ... Cola went straight to toilet. Took 3 buds down, but its a small part of i guess 10g grenade ... Watching for naners and budrot now ... If i see any rot , all crop is chopped same day. Have last night shift and then holidays , should monitor them better from now on ... Tough run .... Day 126. Girls are too young to chop, but i need to do it, so today is last day. After night they out, autos from green house in. All girls left is Control Garden, last 4th bean is in green house growing like rockets, but not weed ;)) RQS Cookies are disaster, 36 days younger plants outperformed them totally. I was very disappointed to have all 5 out of 5 mutated and with issues ... Happy Growing

Worst experience ever ... My diary is full of explanations why i feel that way. Will do summary later. Royal Cookie Royal Queen Seeds Grow expectation - 100 g/plant Taller Cookie - 64 Smaller Cookie - 48 Grow report : Its a most pickiest strain i ever grown. From first week she showed on all 4 out of 4 plants erratic grow and cal mag def. Later all of them went into overfed mode and i couldn't bring leave colour to healthy side. Grew rate is pathetic. Inner node spacing - huge. I never saw stacked Cookie, but this variation its just a joke... Had to make Control Garden and plant last 5th bean. She just repeated her sisters. Have her still in green house, just can't chuck it away, but if i see even one sack - she is a gonner. Grow rocket but not Mary Jane type of leaves ... 2 out of 4 went hermie, poluted all my garden. Guess harvest of Gorrilas had huge impact from all minimalism that i brought into theirs life. Cookies was just a pain to grow. One out of 2 left went into violet colours, other couldn't repeat them. Both produced very hard mini sugar bombs. But amount is really small and far from my goals. If you still want to grow that strain, go through all my diary and rethink are you ready for such pain ???? Smoke report : Taste qualities will describe after couple weeks of cure. After many month - last spliff : damn, thats the brightest and only thing in this strain - its taste ! Really one of best variations of Cookies that i have tried, still even this won't make me grow them ever again. She smack's you hard too, really hard, not a day smoke ! Overall rate : Only 3 words : VOID ! VOID ! VOID !!!

Day 125. Chop day. Report will follow, maybe smoke quality will be that only positive thing in all dirt that this strain brought me .... Dry triming chosen. Plants where such crap that never got names even, so Smaller and Taller plant is chopped. Other two went hermie.

Will report later. This one was different fenotype from her sister, but she is amazing as well ! Harvested like two weeks too early, but i couldn't keep my Autos outside anymore. Strawberry Cough -Bag Seed Grow expectation - 40 g/plant Strawberry Cough - 96 Grow report : Part of Control Garden. I knew both strains which i put against Cookie to check why my grow is so sad in RQS run. This one was a bit other phenotype, but again a monster. As a bag seed she performed well even on hermie side ;))) Thats led to early harvest, plus i had couple inspections, so couldn't keep my Autos outdoor. Girl just grow, her sister took all possible damage and still rewarded me with 141. This one took almost no time from me and went so nice... I really want to try out proper bought strain. As a bagseed she was DIAMOND ! Smoke report : Taste qualities will describe after couple weeks of cure After 4 month, she still stinks crazy, loved it a lot, bigger part of buds stayed seedless , so it was hard to keep some for so long... Top of one bud killed two heavy smokers like it happens very rarely, we smoked only ONE spliff ;))) lights out !!! Overall rate : haven't seen strawberry variation which wouldn't surprised grower, will chase that type of strains soon.

Day 126. She is down. That girl lived 90 days from seed touching soil. Its part of my Control Garden for proving/finding RQS strain issue. For 3 weeks veged bag seed plant who spent 75% of his life not under direct light, sometimes even in shade and under most intense air fan , she is GOLD ! Cure day. She could go two weeks longer, but ... 96 g ;))) again, i can only look and admire. Crazy strain. Update on night shift ;)

Update will follow, but i am in love from second look ;)) The Incredible Bulk by Dr. Krippling Grow expectation - 40 g/plant Monster Bulk - 129 Twin Tower Bulk - 121 Grow report : So its part of Control Garden. My second attempt with this strain. Last time i veged them for almost 6 weeks, lst, defoliation and Fox Farm nutes and soil. Biggest result was 104 if i remember well... This time its totally different run with full range of BioBizz. Veged for 3 weeks, no direct light, TwinTower was under most intense fan and had really obvious damage. The only love they got was constant tucking of leaves to expose new grow and BioBizz. Its amazing strain, she grows massive. Its hard to add anything, they broke my untrained indoor plant records 4sure. TwinTower was harvested not fully flushed, but mature, Monster Bulk was just a perfect plant, sometimes i spent 20 min just stalking her, couldn't understand, how without all privileges she still made to that size. All diary is a proof, for quantity - thats the ONE! Smoke report : Taste qualities will describe after couple weeks of cure So its 4 month later ;))) she is earthy , but still bit plain for me. Hits you hard, smells nice, strong taste in mouth. Overall rate : Grow it whenever you need to bulk up your stash, after there will be plenty of time for failures with picky strains ;))) you'll have loads of smoke, really heavy producer !

Day 126. Really day 90 from seed, part of Control Garden. Amazing how they Bulk, 3 weeks of veg only, crazy strain ! If i ever wanted anything from this strain, she was like "Let's do it ! " 8 sisters were amazing, now i used last two biggest beans and those had no training, no light, nothing, but went into absolute overdrive smells amazing, branches hard to hold while trimming ... Love them, maybe this time taste will be better, different nutes used ... Its so funny to hear branches slowly bending and cracking under own weight with no support left ... Amazing sound for grower ;)) Control Garden is an absolute success even with Strawberries hermie part .. Cure day. 250 g total. Insane for 3 weeks veg, one cola lost to budrot, no direct light and early harvest which led to a bit airy Monster Bulk buds, she could make 150 easy without budrot and one more week of flower ... Will update on night shift ;) Day Unknown. Decided to try out finally last girls for diary records, but ... After a month of intense cure buds got angly/pyramid type forms ... ????? Any idea ? First two weeks moved at least twice a day.

@OutForReal , @rhodes68 , @OGgrows , @@@Athos , @HighRoller909 - Thank You all for answers . Just to clarify - its not autos, that type i grow only in summers outdoors, fact. Now Cookies - overfed without food , mutated, full of deficiencies and now even too stretched . Contacted James couple times, no replies, no actions. Conclusion - RQS is baned from my gardens. Gorillas grows as champions , have some other beans from them, but wont spend a penny on them again ...

HighRoller909commented5 years ago
@AsNoriu, Hope you get decent buds off cookies,but garden looks amazing,gorillas will pay off great I see. my experience with midweeksong garbage ; I bought a feminized seed,they sent me regular and it was a male.a great plant was wasted.contacted them,no replies for a week,then they replied as if it was my fault.after a conversation they sent me a new seed,only one.along with that seed,I had ordered a girl scout cookies auto from them,it didn't flower,replacement seed did also not flower because they were not autos.also,I heard they sell seeds from hermie plants they grow.After what I got, I believe it is true.I'm going with ACE Seeds, they are great.true landrace genetics just like Cannabiogen (partner companies).strong genetics.

@HighRoller909, situation is really comical, its like a breeder father, just scores and runs :))) They contacted me, they provided millions of posters and other small merchandise with some beans with the ask to make diaries about my experience with theirs strains and they just dont care after. One plant is outdoors, one is showing some compact colas, beeing still sick, so i will get the taste in the end, many crossbreeds are made with cookies, wanted to know. I dont need any refunds or something, but they put so many doubts into me and its totally opposite what therapy room should bring me. Thank You for your time.

HighRoller909commented5 years ago
@AsNoriu, very bad experience,I'm sorry. James should have replied to you.Try Fast Buds cookies,Original Sensible's Cookies or Dinafem's. Fast Buds customer service is really good,they won't leave you answerless in a situation like that and they'll surely replace the seeds.Original Sensible is also looking for people to grow their genetics,contact them for cookies or else. Try to email RQS if you never did, sometimes it works better than chat feature i here. I get you mate.Stay away from a website called midweeksong as well.they are true scam.they have cookies too,that's why Im telling.

I know that they won't approve this diary even when its finish, but its perfect example how not to run genetics from crappy seller , even if he is big or HAD good reviews ... Hate that day when i went for free cheese ... RQS is crap and no freebies will stop me from stating true facts !!! All garden is ruined, seeds everywhere ... Two girls took space, soil, nutes, light, my love and gave me back pollinated garden, maybe it will be more, i will check everyday from now on ....

@Growingkitten, ;))) there is no deficiencies in my garden, but ... 4 Royal Cookies, which even hard to find, despite theirs two month of veg, you can see them, because of theirs waxy dark green leaves, they are overfed. 2 Royal Gorillas closest to entrance are lightly underfed. 3 Control garden girls was not toped, over grown monsters without proper light, but they are top notch with food. 2 furthest Royal Gorillas are damaged with thurst and heat ( brown, curly pistols ) , they could eat double ;))) hungry, they eat themselves on week 5 of flower, its not deficiencies, its hunger ;)

CRiSPrGrow
CRiSPrGrowcommented5 years ago
@AsNoriu, yeah man i see what you're worried about, but these thin branches are actually the objective of the LST , these side colas are the big difference in the final weight . Every big branch has to start thin at some point, right now you can still basically control them, but they do start to get "harder" and "woodier" in the middle of flower. dont cut them off for sure , lol that's just throwing good biomass away. for lollipopping, that's again something you do in late veg not flower , right now the closest you can be to lollipopping is to remove the bottom one or two flower nodes which will produce the same effect : making the top flowers fatter. Hope this helps ! 🚀

AsNoriucommented5 years ago
@CRiSPrGrow, and yes and no :)) round two for us :) I striped them hard on week 5 and 8 of veg, they are all leveled and tied up, but scrog i dont like to use, because i do defoliation rounds and with such low canopy it would be impossible to reach or see through. But, you said all options that i consider already and it means i am on right track. Thank You very much for quick and wide answer. My only worry left is not main LSTed branches but those shoots which are coming from them, they are too stretched , have like 3-4 nods but same high as mains, they are very thin, so do i need that jungle, should i lolitop them to top flower during first round of defoliation or just cut them off and concentrate on main colas? have in mind , instead of 20 main braches it will be like 60 sides, can plant make it ?

Had bud rot in my first summer runs, feel bit sceptical about my capabilities to run such style, we shall see. In photos garden looks better than it is, cookies are spoiling all joy.

@RussianGrower, thank you for advice, but i guess every setup works diffirent, i have tried 24, 20 and 18. 18 work best for my setup, soil and food. I read a lot about how much light and darkness they requare and came up to conclution : 6 hours is minimum needed for proper rest. would say all this in russian, but hate kirilica and almost forgot your grammar, but for advice - thank you ! b.t.w. first week of veg i always do 24, this way i had best results so far ...

@AsNoriu, During the growing season, I would advise you to use 20 hours of light and only 4 hours of darkness. Just a few hours of additional light mode significantly affects the growth of plants. Four hours at the vegetation stage is enough for them to sleep. using a shorter light mode on vegetation you will need a little more time to grow time, the more light - the more growth

I tried this strain twice...both Hermed on me I still have seeds to this bullshit straight waste of money

AsNoriucommented5 years ago
@Bloom_Room_By_Jared, according to James from RQS, they "started" investigation ... In my eyes its pure fraud, any bag seed would perform better. Cookies are absolute and obvious scam.

@Cr8grow, Congrats on your first diary, really nice and colours of current is a dream for most ... Hermie can happen, that i understand. Just really still sad, so much love and such saddening ending ... In this grow i wanted to check capabilities of current setup and my knowledge, but i bumped up into Cookie Pain village and can't get out ;)

@TheCode, Rukau ziauriai daug, tai tenka ;) Pats irgi ieskau skonio labiau, nes kai kurios uzauga net per stiprios ;)))) Terapijos kambarys yra 2x2, tokia pachia palapine ir sugebejau ispraust. Visu namu galingunas yra 5kW. Chia ir shaldytuvas, telikas, laptopas, apshvietimas ir kitas sh plius terapijos kambarys ;))) Del elektros neteisus, quantum boardai ir kita yranga man kainuoja 30 euru menesiui, elektros nevagiu, moku, galingumas mazhas, va ir teko ieshkot, kai kada net per silpnos, bet telpanchios i mano remus.

Bad batch. Contact @James here in GD, the RQS rep in the site, I'm sure he'll be glad to help you out.

@@Athos, i was already even before control garden, maybe i went to gentle in mentioning my issue. You see its strange situation, they gave me Gorillas and some bonus seeds as a present, Cookies where bought by me, despite a promise to provide them aswel, so i just cant be asked ... Think they should pay more atention to theirs custumers and mini promoters ... Dinafm or FastBuds or any other seed bank is really active here, RQS are not tho ... just wanted to raise question with hope that i do something wrong, but now i just wont buy from them and wont recomend. Its a trophy winner acording to them ...
the end.
