No growing issues at all. The yield was MUCH lower than average, although it was lower than average for all 3 plants of different strains in the grow tent, so that wasn't due to genetics. My guess is that it is due to the colder than average temperatures during this grow. However, the yield for this plant was still less than the other two plants I grew in the exact same conditions. The buds at harvest were beautiful. Frosty and covered in trichomes, with good density, and wonderfully sweet aroma. It felt like a disservice when I was trimming away the frosty sugar leaves, although personally I prefer a smoother smoke than slightly higher yield by keeping all the sugar leaves. Will update dry weight in about 4 days after drying, then update measured THC % and smoke report in about a month after curing.

No growing issues at all. The yield was lower than average, although it was lower than average for all 3 plants of different strains in the grow tent, so that wasn't due to genetics. My guess is that it is due to the colder than average temperatures during this grow. The coloring wasn't anything special. The buds at harvest were lighter and fluffier than average, and there was a lot of vegetation to trim away. When I grew Zamnesia Runtz F1 Hybrid during my previous grow, those buds seemed much denser. Also the buds of the other two plants that I grew alongside this were denser, and also frostier with trichomes. Nevertheless, I look forward to smoking it and reporting on flavor and effects since I've never tried this strain before. Will update measured THC % and smoke report in about a month after curing.

No growing issues at all. For some reason, SG tends to be a magnet for my growing equipment to fall on it, so I was surprised the plant survived and thrived so well after a fan fell on it during this grow. The yield was lower than average, although it was lower than average for all 3 plants of different strains in the grow tent, so that wasn't due to genetics. My guess is that it is due to the colder than average temperatures during this grow. I loved the colors that came out during this grow. Also during harvest the buds seemed much denser than average. Because they are pheno hunt seeds, I'm not too surprised that the coloring and density during this grow was very different from the last of this same strain. Will update measured THC % and smoke report in about a month after curing.

It was a very healthy grow, and had no issues. Although the wet weight yield is about 25% lower for this plant than my average, the harvest was very pleasant with frosty, resinous buds that smelled wonderful and had beautiful pink hues. Dry weight is only 9.2g, which is about 30% less than my average, although that may be due to growing later in the year than average (last day of October) and the cooler temperatures. The aroma an taste is wonderful. I don't know what a papaya tastes like, although to me this certainly has a sweet light-colored fruit taste, but not as sour as citrus. More like tropical fruits like apricots or mangos. The effects are like a classic sativa-dominant hybrid. For the first smoke, I wanted to do things around the house, but still got that nice light-headed feel without getting sleepy or couch locked. A great daytime strain. Even though my yield was lower than average, I'll probably grow again earlier in the year and find out if yield improves. The flavor is great, and when I measured the THC it came in at a whopping 28% (see attached test results), the strongest strain that I've ever tested!

When I went to harvest, there were tons of yellow pollen sacs that started to form at the intersection of the stems and buds. Didn't expect that I'd be doing some "castrating" work during harvest as I tried trimming away as many little sacs as possible. Wet harvest weight is lower than my average. Triming shears were covered in pollen by the end of the harvest. Probably won't grow this strain again, as the plant that I grew right next to it in the exact same environmental conditions did not have this issue, and also had higher wet harvest weight. While I harvested this outside of my grow tent, I really hope the pollen doesn't affect the younger plants inside the tent. After curing, measured THC is about 26%! Safe to say that potency won't be an issue with this batch. For smoke report, the taste was wonderful like strawberries and cream. Reminds me of the taste of Runtz. For effects, definitely sativa-dominant, as it had me wanting to be active and do things, not just sit around. At the same time it had be creative thinking about things, and don't know whether coincidental or not but after smoking it I was hungry.

Was a pleasant harvest. Lots of resin. Wet harvest weight is more than my average. Very resilient strain, as it survived dropping a fan on top of it a couple weeks ago! Harvest was a little "powdery" and don't know if that's from some of the pollen from the plant that was next to it that hermed or that it started to slightly herm at the end. During harvest there were only a few tiny green sacs at the intersection of buds and stems, although they were NOT yellow and soft like those on the plant next to it. Measured THC is about 23% which is acceptable potency! For the smoke report, this reminds me exactly of Bruce Banner #3 with a strawberry flavor, and happy, uplifting, and relaxing high. My guess would be similarly slightly sativa dominant.

This was a great grow, no problems at all. Breeder doesn't specify the indica/sativa proportions, although at harvest it was more like an indica. Very frosty buds, all the way down to the small popcorn buds at the bottom. I probably could have stopped harvesting at 40-50 grams, although the small buds near the bottom were so frosty that I had to harvest them too! The plant handled topping during week 3 no problem. It stayed short and had such an even canopy that it didn't even need any training beyond that. It smelled pleasantly sweet while harvesting. Measured THC about 20%. The buds smell like sweet fruit. The first smoke was like caramel or butterscotch (my first thoughts were vanilla or cream), and second smoke was herbal. I estimate it is about 30/70 indica/sativa, since I was able to either relax or do tasks around the house after smoking it, although I estimate a sativa lean since I was more motivated to do things. I could have just sat there and observed, but both times I felt energized to do more.

Harvesting this plant was an absolute pleasure. It may be the stickiest plant I've ever harvested, and I contemplated cleaning the stickiness off my trimming shears mid-way into harvest. Because it is clearly sativa-dominant, it took longer to harvest than indica-dominant strains and the buds are smaller, but I can't wait to try them! They smelled of sweet citrus the whole time, and there were some nice purple hues in the fan leaves and sugar leaves. The wet weight was less than my average, and I'm only expecting about 10g dry, although when I decided to grow this plant my goal was QUALITY, not quantity. Measured THC % about 20%. Smoke report: Don't know if it's because I already know the name of the strain, although it seemed to taste predominantly like apples and secondly like citrus. It made me feel happy and creative. Felt the usual buzz from it being weed, but not enough to make me sleepy. A great daytime strain!

Firs time growing this strain, and had no problems at all with it! Harvest was similar to Girl Scout Cookies Auto, which I've grown and harvested in the past. Buds were not huge, lots of vegetation to chop away, and not particularly sticky. Less yield than Lemon Cherry Cookies Auto, as expected. Sticky enough to collect a ton of red hairs though, as you can see from the photo. Looks like I got in a fight with a fox! The smell was earthy and herbal rather than like cookies or gas, although maybe the smell will change after curing. Some of the sugar leaves had a nice purple color to them. My average wet weight yield growing Girl Scout Cookies auto and Gorilla Glue auto in 2-3 gallon pots while sharing a grow tent with other plants is about 51g, and this harvest is more than that, so I'm satisfied. Dry weight is 14.1 grams. Measured THC % is about 15%. Smoke report: Upon lighting up in my desktop vaporizer, the first thing I smelled was ammonia, which obviously isn't good, although hopefully goes away as it continues to cure. The taste, however, was fine. Earthy, herbal, and pine, and on the exhale mint. I would estimate the effects to be 75% indica, 25% sativa. Definitely indica-dominant. Main effect is relaxation, with slight happiness and wonder also. Gets the "stone" from gorilla glue and the "happy" from girl scout cookies. Even at only 15% THC, this hits nicely. I'm still able to function after only smoking one bowl, although prefer not to. I prefer both the effects and taste of the girl scout cookies strain, although those looking for more of a stone and who don't care as much about flavor will appreciate this; no wonder it is one of the breeder's best-selling. I suggest waiting till the evening to smoke this, as it will put you in a long-lasting relaxed state.

Lemon Cherry Cookies Auto was a fantastic grow, and it had no shortage of challenges. From germination, it started out growing upside down in the rooter with the taproot sticking straight up, and I was able to use tweezers turn it right-side-up and stick it back in the rooter and save it. Then, during LST, I accidentally snapped a branch by trying to put an LST clip on it, and was able to save the branch using painter's tape. When I thought it was ready for harvest, I pulled it out of the tent and gave it no light or water for a couple days, only to realize that I pulled it immaturely, and then put it back in the tent to rejuvenate it. Finally, the past couple weeks have been incredibly hot and humid, yet despite all this, growing in only a 3-gallon pot and sharing the tent with 5 other plants I was able to finally harvest 96.6 g of wet-trimmed bud, and it smells and looks incredible! I love the purple hues, and it even has some pink hues in some of the buds closest to the stems. It was a very sticky harvest, and the fat buds made it easy and relatively quick to trim. Throughout the grow, most of the leaves stayed green, even during late flowering, whereas with all the other plants in the grow tent the leaves started to turn yellow. Also, almost all the other plants showed signs of light stress, whereas this one didn't! Although to be fair this one was also shorter than all the others, probably due to it being heavier of an indica than the others.. It handled topping during week 3 no problem. Harvesting at week 8 as advertised would have been a huge mistake, as for me the size increased tremendously between weeks 8 and 12, and it also took that long for the trichomes to mature. Dry weight is 21.7 grams. Measured THC % is about 20% (see photos). For the smoke report, the flavor was most like black cherries, although I tasted some citrus too. The strain is named perfectly for what it tastes like. Its effects remind me a lot of Girl Scout Cookies in that it makes me feel relaxed, happy, and hungry. After smoking it, I was good just watching what was on TV and then got the brilliant idea to pour a shot of butterscotch schnapps on some chocolate mint ice cream. Definitely an indica lean with that nice "lightheadedness" feel, but I wasn't couch locked at all and was still able to do things around the house.

Fox Farm makes good enough stuff. Comparable to all the other growing nutes out there. Does what it's supposed to. However, for autos I wouldn't recommend using any more than 1/4 the recommended dosages.

GSC provides a nice balance of relaxed and happy, and definitely hungry! Unfortunately for myself I killed a lot of seeds and seedlings as I was learning more about germination and transplanting, and also I haven't seemed to been able harvest at the proper time, so I've had to smoke more than average to feel the effects, although it is a nice strain nevertheless.

Rating as average for now becuase I haven't tried it yet

Fine.

Plants didn't die, so I suppose the nutes worked fine.

Will update after trying final product.

Haven't tried it yet, so rating average for now.

Haven't tried it yet so rating average for now.

The Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil was great because I probably didn't have to give the plant any nutes during its entire cycle. However, many seeds with only taproots died as soon as I placed them in the soil. Fox Farm Happy Forest soil is known for being less "hot" so I might stick to that instead for future grows. Or possibly a 50/50 mix of both. The Fox Farm Big Bloom nutes seem to give it noticeable nute burn, almost immediately after applying, and only at 1/3 the recommended strength. Maybe because 1) the plant was an autoflower which are known to be more sensitive to nutes, and 2) the soil was already nute rich.

The grow went fine and I didn't have any issues with it. Smoking it: it gets the job done! A nice indica-dominant hybrid. More sativa effects than expected, as NL is typically a pure indica. Flavor is almost completely pine.
