Kosher Cake 🎂 from fastbuds was not only my very first grow, but was the best flower i've smoked or grown since.. i am on disability, so my budget is extremely tight. And when looking for my first strain to grow, I came across Kosher Cake 🎂 because it was the only fastbuds strain on sale and the description of an old school kush, with that Cake tast on the exhale sounded too good to be true. . When growing her, I ended up really screwing her up in the beginning, because I was using ocean forest, which we all know, has a ton of nutrients and I decided to add a bunch of nutrients on top of that, and she quickly had nitrogen toxicity amongst other things which really stunted her growth but after a month and a half or so I figured it out, and she started growing at a rapid rate after that.. The buds we're big and sticky and smelt and tasted exactly as the description was, and I could not believe while smoking it that I with my own two hands grew it from a seed .. for the longest time, I always thought, growing cannabis was beyond me.. i thought you had to be super smart, and that only a handful of people had the education needed to grow.. the very best thing I ever did was gave myself a shot and proved to myself that I had what it takes to pull it off.. this is a strain that is not spoken of very often, if at all and I really have no idea why.. i have grown probably a dozen auto flowers since and none of them have come anywhere near the flavor profile and the high that comes with it.. so good that I ordered another three pack that I still have and one day in the near future I will be growing her again this time doing it the right way and seeing just how good she could be when she's grown correctly .. so there you have it Kosher Cake will forever hold a special place in my heart and I really, really recommend people try that strain out.. Like I said, it's the best i've had .. i also would like to add that I grew two different plants, so it wasn't a unicorn plant it's just that good ..

Where do you put the stories?

Whiskey Zulu is my favorite autoflower strain I've grown out of 50+ strains I've harvested. It smells of fermented cherries and melons. It was a greasy feeling strain, that coats your fingers after handling the nugs. Was very smooth and tasteful, and it ALWAYS knocked me out. Was my go-to night time strain. As for growing, it was very solid and I ended up with right around four ounces per plant. I always try new strains and love trying new terps, and I can't wait until the day I grow something better.

I'll just throw my brief story here: Cadillac RainbowZ (PUREMICHIGAN x RuntZ) from 3rd Coast Genetics is a stand out plant in my garden. PUREMICHIGAN itself is Oreoz X Mendo Breath F2 and is quite a hit in the Midwest region, as a brainchild/work of art from 3rd Coast Genetics and Thug Pug as a collaboration. This cut is a breeder cut I got from a friend who knows someone who supplies commercial quantity clones in the region. If you ever want to hunt through this genetic domain, it was only released as a regular seed drop. She is amenable to a ton of stress (I regularly prove just how little we know about photoperiod cannabis by messing around with grows of her; I can consistently pull 56 day flower periods with her). In that way, she is a throwback to the old headband 56. The wife loves her because of her funky, garlic and loud smell. I love her because of the colors she never fails to show at the end of flower, the beautiful colors between burnt orange pistils and royal purple foliage and lime green or purple buds. She is an easy girl to train, with large internodal spacing and pre-disposed to tight bud structure genetically. The icing on the cake is that she is a powerhouse for resin production. I usually dry trim very strictly and get a ton of trimmings - which I sift. On average, I pull about 14% of dry harvest weight as 93 micron hash with her. What else could you ask for, seriously? Thanks NASC and Dirty Bird. Dirty Bird knows better than most the type of fire that comes out of Thug Pug collabs. In fact, thanks again to DB specifically for archiving off Thug Pug's Unicorn Poop. The wife also loves that, and I don't buy vault drop packs anymore on principle.

Radical Juice Ripper seeds Lol I just had to post this one. I just finished drying this and took a smoke and man this is the best sht I've ever smoked🤣🤣🤣. Smell is addicting and the smoke is emence. The taste is sweet, never had such a flavored full smoke and it was burning very slow. Love that, got to enjoy the smoke. It was also very smooth on my throat, didn't cough once. Lol I REALLY LOVE RADIACL JUICE ❤️

Zombie Kush by Ripper Seeds This strain quickly became a favorite in my garden, not just for its stunning colors and dense bud structure, but for the entire journey from seed to harvest. From the moment it sprouted, it thrived effortlessly, adapting to every condition with ease and responding beautifully to nutrients. Its amazinggg smelllll and resilience of this plant made the experience even more rewarding. Growing it was such a blast. I was locked on the entire flowering cycle. It was such fun the first time around I couldn’t resist running more! This strain truly earned its place in my heart and top 3 lol ❤️🧟‍♂️

So I posted up this zamnesia lush mints because I grew it side by side with dirty bird black Phoenix! They looked like twinsie plants the whole time. Both very nice buds, frost terp, structure and similar smells. I just love growing and popping seeds. Side by side

My pick has to be the DirtBirdGenetics Lovers moon strain. This strain was a freebie with my last order and I was excited to bust it out after looking up Dbg. It’s performed so well and shown me come blazing colors I would’ve never expected to be combined on one plant. This plant has made me seriously reconsider the genetics of the seeds I will be buying in the future. Thoroughly impressed and just excited to be a part of this plants lifecycle. This is when growing fun

I’m not usually one to believe the hype until i get the opportunity to make up my own opinion. I have had many friends sing the praises of GDP- or Granddaddy Purple over the years. I’ve been cultivating for just over 6 years now, and finally got my hands on a few seeds from Zamnesia. I have never recalled a run going so smoothly. The two plants I grew did not skip a beat. They handled every increase in nutrients, every bend and tie down -without any issue. Come harvest the plants were a deep dark purple color- true to their name. The buds dripped with the sweet smell of berries. The final product ending up curing perfectly, and I was blessed with some of the tastiest, densest buds I could have ever hoped for. I had to take advantage of their 4/20 sale a scope up a pack of both the photoperiod and automatic varities for my collection. I know when the time is right, I’ll fill my jars with her again. 👊🏻 🌱

purple skunk from ganja farmer so far is my favorite strain i have grown maybe because it was the first purple weed i had lol

Gorilla Zkittlez Auto From Fast Buds 420. Strain is sweet and super frosty. Delicious to smoke and it yielded pretty well.

My favorite strain, by far, is Meringue by Dutch Passion. She's a 60/40 Indica/Sativa hybrid derived from a cross of Wedding Cake x Animal Cookies. She's got a complex pungent, fruity/sweet aroma, which carries over to your palate when smoking her, and with her high THC levels, hits you quick and hard right between the eyes. This gorgeous lady yielded 592g of beautiful flower, and was a pleasure to cultivate!🔥.

La Wedding Crasher me sorprendió por la cantidad de resina que produjo, parecía escarchada desde mitad de floración. Fácil de manejar y con un aroma dulce-terroso muy agradable. Ideal para extracciones o simplemente disfrutar de unos cogollos bien cargados

Con la Mimosa Shot no sabía bien qué esperar, pero terminó siendo de lo más llamativo del cultivo. Desde el inicio fue fuerte y sin complicaciones, y cuando empezó a soltar ese olor cítrico con toques dulces, supe que venía algo bueno. El subidón es bastante alegre, ideal para momentos sociales o para ponerte en marcha

La Gorilla Melon de Fast Buds me sorprendió gratamente desde el inicio. La cultivé por curiosidad y terminó siendo una de las más interesantes del jardín. Su aroma afrutado con ese toque dulce a melón la hace destacar, y el efecto es potente pero equilibrado, ideal para relajarse al final del día. No esperaba tanto de esta cepa, pero me dejó con ganas de repetirla en el futuro.

Bisous au THC ( Cross : Lemon Tree x Cookies & Cream F2 2019 - The High Chameleon - EUR Cookie Forum Cut Female Cross : OG Kush x Durban Poison 2010 - Cookie Fam - USA) is my favorite we can say that everything is there scents flavors the terpene profile is incredible not to mention the colors the structure of the buds is just perfect my nuggets for plants grown on gd thank you for this opportunity and 😘 to THC of course 😜 good luck to all 🤞🍀

Babylon Burning Selections was a bean that’s was sent my way from Bud @summitseedbanks517 being that I was a decent chef in Vegas area Gordon Ramsey, Wolfgang Puck & Chris Santos I had accidental OD 3 years ago on 4-5-21 this plant has saved my life and future she’s my first harvest 22

The orange dream by Dutchfem is my fave strain of all time . The orange orchard smell coming from it is like an orchestra of citrus fruits playing the same tune and on the exhale you are left with a sweet orange Julius after taste . Not only is the tastiest best smelling weed ever the harvest was close to a pound , big shout out to Dutchfem on this one it’s some special breeding pushing out weed that is different from all the others.
