What genetics does the Biscotti variety contain?
At this point there is some controversy, as some say it is a cross between Gelato and South Florida OG, while others think it is a combination of Gelato # 25 x Girl Scout Cookies x Gorilla Glue. What is clear is that it has many genes of the Cookies family, and you can see that with the naked eye ... or as soon as you smell it.
How is this plant in general?
Its morphology is similar to that of shrubs, with symmetrical growth, rather compact, and strong, with thick stems and closely spaced internodes. Its indica influence can be seen well in the development of the Biscotti from the first weeks of cultivation.
In flowering it is a spectacle for the senses, buds with a sticky touch and extreme hardness, visually very striking due to the contrast between the bright resin on the dark background of the leaves and flowers, and above all the aroma, faithful to its Cookies lineage , of 10.
What is the best way to grow Biscotti indoors and outdoors?
Indoors you can choose between letting them grow normally, without pruning, putting 9 plants / m2 in 2.9 US gal ( 11-liter pots ) with 3 weeks of vegetative growth. Or apply a SCROG, with 4 or 5 plants / m2 in 5.3 US gal ( 20-liter pots ) with about 5 weeks of growth and a lot of pruning, you choose.
However, in outdoor cultivation we think it is better to try to shape it into a ball or spherical hedge. It is the best way to take advantage of the sunlight, and for that you only have to do a weekly pruning from the first month of life, until the pre-flowering stretch begins.
Both indoors and outdoors, I recommend that you feed your Biscotti with organic fertilizers, it is the best way to get that deep flavor that only Cookies can offer, listen to me, you will appreciate it.
When is it harvested indoors and outdoors?
Indoors it takes around 65 days to complete its flowering cycle, apart from vegetative growth of course. If you like the heavy, sedative and narcotic effect, let it mature one more week, you will cut it with most amber trichomes and its effect will be special to forget everything when you need it.
For those who grow Biscotti outdoors, sharpen the scissors at the beginning of October, this strain matures outdoors from the 1st to the 15th of that month in the northern hemisphere. Those of the southern hemisphere will celebrate their harvest during the first half of April.
