What an absolute monster! Clones really easily and is very resilient. Fan leaves turned purple and red during late flower, and buds were bright green and very dense. Super sticky with lots of resin and massive colas. Smells very sweet and fruity. Beautiful plant with excellent genetics and great yields, very impressed. I have to deduct points due to the 25% germination rate (planted 4 seeds, only 1 survived), but I would be willing to give a pass due to the amazing plant I ended up with. I would still recommend and hope for better luck.

Hands down one of the best plants I've ever grown! Absolutely no complaints or issues with Girl Scout Cookies from seed to harvest. She grew big fan leaves with long stems and didn't even flinch when she got topped. The plant wasn't phased at all when transplanted outdoors. My other two plants took about a week or so to adapt and adjust, but GSC didn't stop growing. The plant branched out beautifully and had great spacing between internodes. She clones super easily and I was able to get 4 different clippings between June and July to root in a glass of water within a couple weeks. I've got one clone left that I'm hoping to keep alive during the winter for next year, the rest I gave away and friends were able to get a harvest from them. The plant is very resilient to pests. She was 2 feet away from another plant in my garden that got attacked by thrips and catepillars were on a war path in the early summer. Outside of maybe a leaf or two being eaten, she had absolutely no issues or damage related to pests. She flowered for about 10 weeks and she went through a wild transformation. Fan leaves turned red and purple during late flower, and buds were bright green and very dense. One of the most beautiful plants I've ever grown. Despite the amount of pictures I took, the photos never did the plant justice. Buds were very sticky with lots of resin and the colas were massive. Dried weight, I ended up with with 19.5 ounces, or roughly 1.22 pounds. Buds smell very sweet and fruity. Smooth taste and excellent smoke, no harshness or bad aftertaste. Strong high but not too over the top. The burn out is a little strong, you may need a cup of coffee to perk back up late in the afternoon. Overall though, an amazing strain and an absolute joy to grow. My only complaint is that I tried to plant 4 seeds, but only 1 survived, so I have to deduct some points. While a 25% germination rate isn't the greatest, the plant I ended up with was a gift from the pheno gods and top tier. I would be more than willing to give these seeds another try and hope for better luck. As stated before, this was one of the best plants I've ever grown. It easily took the crown in my grow this year and had the best results from yields, to smell, look, and general ease of growth. This will likely be a staple in my garden every year going forward.

bruxupstarted grow question 5 years ago
I plan on moving the plants outdoors within the next week or two. I'm going to be topping them, but I'm wondering if I should do it now during their last week inside or wait until I transplant and they're accustomed to the outside weather. Thanks in advance!

bruxupstarted grow question 4 years ago
Transplanted outdoors over a week ago and have noticed slow growth and new leaves have little holes and yellow spots on them. I've checked for bugs but can't see anything. Could this be nutrient-related? Or shock? Ph levels? Too rich soil? Any help is appreciated. Cheers.

That is definitely pest damage.. Looks like thrip damage to me.. You can get some Neem oil.. An Organic pesticide. Mix it with some Organic Insecticidal soap and spray it on your plant top and bottom of the leaves soak it all over.. best to do early in the morning before direct light. Just stop using the spray about 3-4 weeks from Harvest. Hope this helps! Happy Growing..

I'm roughly 2-3 weeks into flower. Over the last week, I've noticed more yellow leaves than normal. Majority are bigger, older fan leaves but some are moving up the plants. New growths are a nice green and buds look healthy. Am I under feeding or overreacting?

Heya! Yes I would say that is alittle early for leaves to show deficencies during flower. Looks like she is being underfed and wants some more food. I noticed in your diary you don't list the pH of your water, for soil we want to make sure it is 6-7. If you know your source is within this range of have been phing it to this, then I would add more nutrients. Now that you're a couple weeks into flower you should be feeding less nitrogen and predominantly more potassium and phosphorous. During the flower stage the plant will use a lot more potassium and phosphorous to go into bud production. Now in saying this, are those few leaves getting much less light than the rest of the plant? Good luck and cheers

@bruxup, thanks mate, you answered to my question about topping my feminized one i got a diary on so i came to check ur plants and this one was great. I will top her in a few days, just made the transplant will wait to see if she streeses with the new spot and after that i will do it.
bruxup
bruxup
@N_e_O, I like to top my plants twice during the grow cycle. The first time I'll top at the 5th or 6th node when they're still small. Once the 2 new branches at the top have 5 nodes, I top them both again. Around the time I top the plants, I also like to clean up, trim and defoliate smaller growth at the bottom of the plant so it doesn't waste energy on branches that won't fully develop. You have to be aware of your grow season because it's always a race against time. It's best to top plants while they're still in vegetative state so they have enough time to recover from the stress and go into flower without any issue. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions. Cheers!

Always feel free to reach out, I'll help whenever I can. Cheers!
