Everything’s wonderful. But a lot of work to do @ the moment.. Today I had to realize once again how different a run can be. One Dark Devil has given up. So I had to harvest her. About 2 weeks early. This specimen had already resented the topping, I think. She didn't show much effort to become more branched and was already pre-flowering in week 2. I am looking forward to a few suggestions or opinions from you, dear garden friends. I'll put photos in a moment... Normally, I wouldn't top an automatic of the Red Family from Sweet Seeds from experience. Somehow they had problems more often, when I did. When they were fully grown, they were usually very productive and healthy. She simply had too weak nerves. But that's ok. My nerves are also pretty down. Due to the loss of my beloved Quimaria - I miss my sweet cat girl insanely. That's why I didn't want to interrupt this passage with the good old Secret Jardin to set up the Homebox. Too many beautiful memories stick to this tent, because my ladybug always sat at the edge of the bed, when I did my gardening. For me, this also means a kind of farewell. This plant also began to bloom after a very short time. But I'm happy about more space, because all the other comrades-in-arms like it very much and everything is progressing properly. She behaved as if she was already slightly over time. Little perspiration. And no changes were noticeable. Leaves with an autumnal touch. But a wonderful berry-like scent. Now I have hung up their flowers to dry.

As week 2 comes to an end 4 of the 5 have shown great growth 1 is behind (#5) but it also has a mutation and has a few 4 leafers on it. #3 is shorter and has wider leaves.

Thanks for swinging by and checking out the grow so far! So this week we are switching to flowering and taking a flood cycle out of the feeding schedule. The hydro plants are catching up to the soil plants and the tent is really starting to fill out ! Me and my partner have been keeping up on the training and were very happy with the results. I think we achieved the canopy look we were shooting for, so time to flower !! Were still following the floral series feeding scheduled within reason. The soil plants still have a little burn on the tips but we were overfeeding them, newbie mistake, but were flushing them with fresh water to give them a break. We cant wait to see the what happened in the weeks to come. Waiting to see what kind of stretch we get from them. EDIT:: mid week. The plants still have a great growth rate and are noticeably different every day. We went ahead and pulled them out of the buckets and gave them a good trimming before they get through the net. LST is paying off, we have a bunch of top growth so hopefully we get the sea of green look were going for.

These ladies were heavy yielding - just wish the PK booster did not stunt them, I feel they could have even been larger, the buds are sweet and sticky, they smell amazing, they are hard and resinous - they have a beautiful mix of dark and light shades of green with bright orange hairs, very pretty, my friends are already in love with this weed, hits you like a Sativa and as the high lingers mellows like an Indica, I can't, wait to grow this again! The is an urban legend that occasionally a purple strain emerges, and when it does the outcome is legendary, just another reason to try this strain!

How did you create/breed Freakshow? A. Methodical selection, line breeding, and culling is the short answer. Read our About page for more details. Q. Is it an indoor or outdoor type? A. Everything I've ever worked has been outdoors, including of course Freakshow. It has been our experience that outdoor (or sun grown, as it's recently being referred to) cultivars seem to perform extremely well under artificial conditions. This is true of seed starts or clones made from seed starts. The opposite is not always true; indoor clones often give an outdoor grower headaches because they don't always make the transition smoothly. This is due to light spectrum, temperature, and/or photoperiod changes. Yes, Freakshow will do exceedingly well indoors, and will thrive and mature just fine in a wide variety of natural environments as well, so it's definitely both and I think might even prove to be more resilient to those sorts of transitions. Q. What are the potency and terpenoid levels? A. Average 18-20% THCa, THC; negligible CBD, CBN with terps variable, averaging 2.5-3.5, primarily limonene and pinene, but this is variable, there was a lot of diversity in terp combinations and compositions in all the prior generations, it's just something that was left "as is" for now. The different parallel lines that we are developing can be directed in a few different pathways flavorwise. Q. Why are the seeds white? A. Why is the sky blue? No, the mature seeds are shrouded by a rice paper thin membrane which has coloring and mottling on it, but it's so fragile that it disintegrates in the process of shucking. Stripped of the outer layer the seeds are very pale, nearly white. It came as no surprise that this plant would have abnormal seeds. Q. Is it a GMO? A. Wow...? Well, it's seriously "modified" and the modifications are definitely genetic, and it is an organism. (Genuinely Modified Organically!) Uh, no. No radiation, no recombinant DNA, no gene splicing or editing, no TALEN or CRISPR! These biotechnologies don't belong in the food and medicine plant industries. Sadly, in the near future it will become commonplace and widespread in cannabis and other medicinal plants as it is already is with food crops and ornamentals. I'll avoid discussion on this topic for now, but we hope some people enjoy consuming Frankenbud! Q. What's the floral period length? A. 8-9 wks, finishes early Oct. at most latitudes and elevations. Q. Is it a big producer? A. Freakshow will produce nice, fat, dense colas (see gallery) with remarkable trichome coverage, and you can expect yields according to your veg. time, root space, and general knowledge and expertise as a gardener. The same set of variables apply to expected outcomes regarding cannabinoid levels and terpene profiles. Q.What is the lineage? A. (Bigbud x Skunk#1) x (Big Sur Holy Weed x Banana Kush). NLD("Sativa") dominant, but the afghanica influence is apparent. I'm pretty sure that Freakshow contains some Trainwreck and some Maui Wowie based on some research I did on the origins of the Pineapple Express. Interestingly Big Sur Holyweed, OG Kush, Banana, Trainwreck, and Maui Wowie are all of unclear origins. We have to remember that these are all just names and that they don't really mean much. The exact heritage of any cultivar today is impossible to determine accurately. Also, considering the amount of continuous shameless hybridization that has occurred in the last 40 yrs., any modern kind could easily contain over 40 kinds. In the case of Freakshow, it's much more limited because the ancestry is largely older "Sativas" that didn't go through as much outcrossing. In the 70s in Santa Cruz, Haze was a favorite among surfers for the pure energy and I still have (greatly improved) stock of it around, simply because even when I made hybrids with it I always kept the original in pure form for obvious reasons. Q. What is the psychoactive effect like? A. Like the flavors, many people have commented that the "buzz" is somewhat different than other mainstream types out there. It's not entirely out of the scope of imagination that given that this strain has new alleles in so many other respects, that it could also contain new, unique cannabinoids, as well as new and unique terpenoids, some of which may not even be among the standard 16 or so that the average lab is testing for. Aside from the up, cerebral, energetic boost, some report a mild time/space warp effect. Creativity and idea induction should be mentioned, for sure. Freakshow has the pure energy effect and greatly alters perception to the positive side, so definitely destroys depression. Appetite suppression is a side effect, but the enjoyment of food is enhanced. I personally will attest to all of the above. We all have different receptor profiles, so these are just generalizations. Couch unlock. Q. Is it pest and mildew resistant? A. Indeed it is. On many occasions in the last few years, it has been observed that when pest and mildew issues were affecting other plants adjacent to in the vicinity of Freakshow plants, for unknown reasons the freaks remained entirely unaffected. This includes 0botritis, PM, various mites and insects, soil fungus, etc. We haven't heard any complaints along those lines so far, so if anyone has any problems, especially with a rigorous IPM regimen in place, we would like to hear about it. And if anyone can attest to the extreme level of resistance it seems to have we'd love to hear about that as well. Q. Does it contain web-leaf genetics? A. I thought I better clarify this because there are a few people thinking that because of an article "Growing Marijuana that Doesn't look like Marijuana" that mentions that I had worked web-leaf types years ago and had eventually turned that into Freakshow. This is incorrect and I'm needing to get ahold of the writer to have him change it. When I read the piece and saw the mistake I figured it didn't matter that much, that the actual method of breeding could just remain a "trade secret". Recently, I noticed online that a posting, "Freakshow only exists because of duckfoot" by Curious Cannabis Connoisseur, where he explains how I developed Freakshow using Duckfoot. Let me explain, about 20 yrs. ago a friend gave me a jar of seeds labeled "BC Bigbud" and I sprouted flats of hundreds to look for oddities and had found one web-leaf pheno which we named Webster. It was a female so I bred it to a normal leaf male and began selecting and stabilizing a line of Webster. About 5 or 6 generations later I had nailed it to 100% webs and had also stabilized it for a deep purple color and a nice "gingerbread" terp profile. I was busy working other lines at that point so I put Webster in the library. Also, I was having a hell of a time getting a pheno of it that flowered to my satisfaction. (it seemed to finish with a limited number of calyxes). I knew I would have to outcross it to something with a big tasty bud and restabilize it for web-leaf, and I no longer had the original BC Bigbud. I still have the Webster seeds, and trust me the thought has crossed my mind to make the cross with Freakshow, but why? Why mess around crossing things just to create something even weirder? I have heard that the "Duckfoot" also doesn't bud up well so maybe there's a correlation there. Anyway, people can do what they want to and I will too, but crossing Freakshow with some low-THC crap like ABC is in my opinion idiotic. I worked extremely hard stabilizing and perfecting a beautiful new subspecies and I believe it should be kept pure. I won't go on a rant here about the rampant crossing and the lack of line-breeding in the cannabis world in the last several decades, or where this will eventually lead us, but I will say that it's not in a good direction. Bottom line....Freakshow has no web-leaf genes, it was made using top-grade tropical narrow-leaf drug (NLD) cultivars. Q.Why is Freakshow patented? A. Although I and most others (including all the folks at HSC) believe in and subscribe to the concept of "open sourcing" because sharing in cannabis genetics was always the cultural norm, it was decided that Freakshow should be protected (1) because it is a novel and unique, not a preexisting strain (or even subspecies), (2) To keep the greedy corporate big boys from exploiting it, (3) To maintain control of the genetic refinement of it in all future generations. We really can't wait to share it with the entire collective world of cannabis enthusiasts and invite experimental breeding for personal use and curiosity." source https://freakshowcannabis.com

xxxxxxx Clone update xxxxxxx Check out those trichomes 😎 Be art | Composition

I bumped light up to 80% (PPFD 700-400 on edges). Observation weekend Noticed a bit taco / clawing raised light to 22”. Coconut oil infusion experiment Mini crock pot / warm / 2C coconut oil / 24g of Blueberry cupcake / 6hrs stirring once an hour / strained with cheese cloth

Very good smell so far, exact fragrance that the other 2 phenos plants Ak420, hoping the best for a good sativa happy energetic high with that sweetness in flavor and aroma, let's see how she perfoms! 👨‍🌾💚🧡

Pheno number 3 looks like it’s gonna b the frostiest so far, it’s the shortest buds seem to b a bit bigger on her as well. Not a lot of difference on 1 2 and 4 yet but we will see how things develop.

📅 D22 - 05/09 📜Second day of rest for Lucy only tha daily water tracking. LST adjusted a little. Added 1 l of water with only pH-. Deactivated inside roots pump ✍️ 0.98 EC ♒ 6 pH 🌊 9,7 L (added 1 L) 📏 7 cm 📅 D23 - 06/09 📜 Lucy waked up a little droopy. I guessed it is due to the deactivation of inside roots pump, so I reactiveted it. EC and pH are both raising and Lucy still drinks good. I will make a correction of EC and pH today. Cutted lower leaves. Late update: I added 1 L of pure water with 0,5 ml of pH- to take under control EC and pH. Anyway she looks better now, maybe the inside pump worked ? We'll see tomorrow. Lights distance is set on 20 cm from now on. ✍️ 0,96 EC ♒ 6,1 pH 🌊 9,9 L (Added 1 L) 📏 8 cm 📅 D24 - 07/09 📜 Lucy seems ok today, she is drinking and feeding ! Today I adjusted the LST on top branches and I will give some days of rest to lucy in the new configuration. EC and pH are both stable. ✍️ 0,96 EC ♒ 6,2 pH 🌊 9,1 L 📏 8 cm 📅 D25 - 08/09 📜 All is working good. Lucy is now completely recovered and she's drinking and feeding very good. I stressed up a little the LST for the manifolding. Also I gave her 1,5 liters of water with EC 0,9 and pH 4,8. I think she's almost ready for the new topping of the 2 main branches. I will perform it on Saturday and then change res. ✍️ 0,96 EC --> 0,92 EC ♒ 6 pH --> 5,7 pH 🌊 8,4 L --> 9,9 L 📏 8 cm 📅 D26 - 09/09 📜 Finally I decide to take the risk to make the topping today, despite the advices of @GrowCN and @Ukfarmer420 (thank you guys). As they say, she is an autoflower so too many close to the pre-flowering. So I've almost changed my mind, but finally, looking at Lucy, I decided to get all or nothing! So I topped her on the two main branches and I completly changed the res. The new EC is 1,4, very high.. Both the moves were a gamble, but failing is learning, so it's ok for me. Let see the aftermath of this push. ✍️ 1,4 EC ♒ 6 pH 🌊 10 L 📏 8 cm 📅 D27 - 10/09 📜 Lucy looks good today. It seems the topping and the res change is going well until now (finger crossed). The pH track was a little strange as the value is over 6,6, I already added 1 ml of pH- in 10 L and I think I would add some more today. I didn't change the values here, 'cause I will put the new values the next week. I'm considering what to do now to make the branches stay down, I'm not sure if I have to use SCROG or other LST. I will look other diaries to find out. Update: I opted for LST. ✍️ 1,4 EC ♒ 6,4 pH 🌊 9,5 L 📏 9 cm 📅 D28 - 11/09 📜 Last day of third week, and no changes made on Lucy today. EC is still high, but Lucy apparently can manage it. I made some little update on LST. Addded 1 L of water, pH5 and EC 1,39, tryng to lower the pH. ✍️ 1,4 EC ♒ 5,8 pH 🌊 9,5 L (Added 1 L) 📏 9 cm

Questa matanuska ancora gli manca un po' ma devo dire che sta venendo su bene....

About 3 days until harvest . Looking fat and frosty . The tri-combs are mostly a milky color with a few amber .

Flower tent is ac infinity 4x8 tent. With two spider farmer sf-4000. This tent has the exhale 360 co2 grow bag. The nutrients are not what each plant receives. Each stage gets its appropriate nutrients. I will be going back and trying to name each plant in the 2-7 feeding

I waz expecting dis weed to sux' it actually rocked. Im talkin 5 hour come down' mega head trip like my head waz in a bigg cloud of soft pillows' 🦅 I smoked up and went to walk and talk witt all da pretty ladies around town. I hitt up my private offroad track for some mud kickin rally & keept it burnin for a wholez week' Dog walks too :) Real good 😶‍🌫️ considering itz a free outdoor grow FOOk YEAH

Grosse défoliation , elles ont bien repris ! Content , sa prend pas mal de place !!

Loved it, spent a few hours last night taking her down and hanging her branches up on a hanger. The smell is reminding me of raspberry puree which is delicious lol. Definitely would recommend this strain to everyone.

Elle grandi très bien ! Rien a signaler
