So here it is. The story of the six shooter. I left these ladies to their own device with very minimal LST and not topping for the single cola effect. I really like topping my autos personally just before flower but that’s just me. This strain has thre very consistent characteristics. Rock hard flowers, super floral smelling and as many sugary leaves as Any other I’ve seen. They did great with the nutrients I gave them and are a fan favorite for sure. In the photos are a moon rock I made for fun and all aspects of the final plant harvested.

Dia 1 de vegetación Veg1, cuando empiezan a crecer las primeras hojas de mas de un dedo/puntas considero que han dejado de ser plantulas, y han comenzado la vegetación. Entonces, les he dado su primer alimento con nutrientes muy suaves(micro, grow y bloom) en una EC de 0.5, con pH de 6.2, ademas de seguir inoculando la tierra y raices que vienen desarrollando con voodoo juice, tarantula y piranha, con 1/2 de fuerza. Veg2, riego con 0.3 EC y pH 6.1, desde el primer riego están creciendo más rápido. Veg3, riego con 0.6 EC y pH 6.0, primer riego con suficiente agua para obtener drenaje, el drenaje midió 1.2 EC y 6.5 pH, todo ok. Veg4, nada hoy. Veg5, riego con 1.2 EC y pH 6.2, se usó Sensi CalMag en este riego @2ml/litro por un poco de amarillo en el nuevo crecimiento, B-52 también. Veg6, siguen creciendo bien, al parecer se corrigió lo amarillo en las hojas. Veg7, riego con 0.7 EC y 6.0 pH, drenaje de 1.1 EC (ok) y 6.6 pH (un poco alto), siguientes riegos serán con pH 5.8. Subí la luz y bajé su intensidad para que las plantas estiren un poco antes del transplante, las raíces de la más pequeña estaban ok, la más pequeña fue sacrificada, ya van quedando 11 de las 9 plantas finales. Ahora a esperar que se desarrollen suficiente(3-4 sets de hojas verdaderas) para hacer transplante a la maceta definitiva de 18 litros.

Week 8, looking great. Really putting on some size now, soon to introduce some plant bends. Stay tuned

Big cracked on the main cola of plant #4 not dying but very fragile. She will be okay I think. Update : 22/08 Mealybug, so far I see only 1 found some info from Google this can be a problem with infestation Treatment : I clean off the stem area with water mix with drop of alcohol and washing liquid.

Facing some nut block problems. Now I think it's already solved let's see

Hi liebe Community und Willkommen zurück im Sensi Seeds Wettbewerb! 💚 Chocolate Rainbow 🍫🌈 Nach der 12 Wachstumswoche insgesamt ist nun die sechste Blütewoche vorbei. 🌱(Wachstumstag 89 | 🌷Blüte Tag 35) Die Blütenausbildung ist richtig stark ausgeprägt. In dem Stadion hatte ich schon ne Weile keine Pflanze mehr, die so eine dicke Budsturktur aufweist. Die Blütenstände sind jetzt schon rzwischen 4cm und 5cm breit.. Die Trichome bilden sich immer weiter aus. Und allmählich ist ein kräftigeres würziges Aroma wahrzunehmen. Schokolade würde jetzt noch nicht sagen, aber dennoch sehr tief. Zusätzlich kommt nun eine leichte Süße Note hinzu. Die Höhe liegt nun insgesamt bei knapp 88cm. Diese Woche kam noch einmal ein PK 5 - 8 mit 4ml auf 1l Gießwasser hinzu. Die Bedingungen im Growschrank sind für die Blütephase top! Die Videos findet ihr nun auch bei Insta und YouTube! ________________________ 🌡️ Temp: 26 🌚 Temp: 18°C bis 19°C 💧 RH: 58% 🌬️ VPD: 1,07 kPa ☀️ ppfd: 830 mpm ________________________ Grüne Grüße 💚🍀

Talk about what a difference a week makes. The buds are really starting to stack this week and the smell is undescribable like lemon and haze.

Hey now, hope everyone is having a great weekend and staying safe. Another great week for the ladies, as they are now about 2 weeks into flower, and the stretch is winding down. I am still feeding them silica, cal mag, and flower nutrients maxi bloom by GHE. I will start to add a PK booster this week. I also will be switching to light from V1 to F1 sometime this week, and also integrating the UV/IR bar into the light cycle later this week. I will run the UV/IR bar for approximately 30 minutes prior to lights off to get started. The 5X5 is really starting to fill up nicely, I am running two dehumidifiers outside of the tent and I am able to maintain around 50% RH in the tent during lights on, and around 55% RH with lights off. Still very happy with the Spectrum X from Medic Grow. I am running her at 90% in the V1 cycle and will be transitioning to the F1 cycle later this week. Overall, the plants seem very happy and healthy. The temperature and humidity is significantly dropping so that helps keeping the tent cool and not overly humid. This is by far the best time of year to be flowering plants in my region. I hope everyone has a great weekend, Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! 💪 Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

Week 16 From Seed | Lemon Cherry Gelato 🍋🍒 | Cure, Smoke Report & Closing Chapter Well… Here we are. Final chapter. And honestly, this one feels strange to write because somewhere along the way this stopped becoming “just another grow” and became one of those runs you genuinely remember afterward. First of all, as always lately, apologies again for dividing the reports into several parts. But honestly, with the amount of photos, macros, trimming sessions, drying observations, resin collection, curing experiments, root inspections, smoke notes, and documentation collected during this run… there was simply no realistic way to compress everything into one single update without losing important parts of the journey. And this final report deserves the full respect of the process. So for everyone arriving only now and jumping directly into the final week, quick recap: These Lemon Cherry Gelato girls were grown completely under 12/12 from seed. No long vegetative period. No giant training sessions. No extreme manipulation. Just allowing the genetics to express themselves naturally while documenting the entire process from seed to cure. And honestly? These girls delivered beautifully. Compact structure. Heavy flower stacking. Massive density. Ridiculous resin production. Loud terpene expression. Strong roots. Strong stems. And some genuinely beautiful medicine in the end. Across the previous reports we covered: - growth structure, - flowering behavior, - fading, - harvest, - drying, - trimming, - finger hash, - temple balls, - curing setup, - and storage methods. This final report becomes the real conclusion: The cure. The smoke. The chemistry. The experience. And the final transformation from plant into finished medicine. And honestly… This is where cannabis truly becomes complete. Because harvest is not the finish line. Drying and curing are not “extra steps.” They ARE part of cultivation. And I genuinely think many growers underestimate how much chemistry is still actively happening after harvest. Fresh flowers are biologically active material. They are still full of: - moisture, - chlorophyll, - sugars, - starches, - enzymes, - unstable volatile compounds, - and rapidly changing terpene structures. Drying removes free moisture slowly enough to preserve structure and prevent mold. But curing? Curing is where the flower actually matures. Where harshness softens. Where chlorophyll breaks down. Where terpene profiles settle. Where moisture equalizes internally. Where aromas stop smelling “green” and start smelling like the cultivar itself. Fresh flower smells like plant. Cured flower smells like genetics. And honestly… these girls cured BEAUTIFULLY. The smoke became incredibly smooth. Soft on inhale. Soft on exhale. Almost creamy sometimes. No harshness. No aggressive throat hit. No weird grassy notes. Just properly finished medicine. The terpene profile evolved into something honestly difficult to describe perfectly because it keeps shifting depending on the jar, humidity, breakdown, and even time of day. But if I had to describe the core experience: Sweet tropical woods. Fruits. Warm resin. Soft creamy backend. And this very specific pine-nut-like aroma. Not pine tree. Pine seeds. That soft oily nutty aroma you get when opening pine nuts mixed with tropical sweetness and woody resin. And honestly? If someone added pineapple to this profile, I would probably believe I was sitting somewhere in Hawaii or the Bahamas 😄 The aroma genuinely feels warm-weather tropical. Bright. Happy. Comfortable. And the effects follow that same direction perfectly. This is NOT sleepy medicine. Not couch-lock. Not knockout smoke. This is uplifting medicine. Euphoric. Social. Creative. Functional. Happy. The kind of flower that makes conversations easier. Music sound better. Nature feel more alive. Walks become longer. And random laughing suddenly happens for no reason 😄 Beautiful daytime or social medicine. Perfect for: - beach walks, - dinners with friends, - creative sessions, - gaming, - movies, - long conversations, - music, - and honestly just enjoying life a little slower. But definitely not the best choice if your goal is immediate sleep 😄 This one keeps the brain alive. Now let’s talk curing and storage properly because this became a huge part of the experiment too. We cured using both: - traditional glass jars, - and Grove Bags. And honestly, both systems worked beautifully when used correctly. Glass jars remain timeless for a reason: - reliable, - reusable, - visually satisfying, - easy for long-term inspection, - and perfect for manual burping routines. Meanwhile Grove Bags genuinely simplify moisture management dramatically by helping stabilize internal humidity exchange automatically when flowers are dried properly beforehand. And this is important: No storage system fixes bad drying. Curing starts during dry. That’s why environment matters so much: - stable temperature, - gentle airflow, - humidity control, - patience, - and avoiding overdrying early. Because once flowers overdry aggressively, you cannot truly reverse that damage completely. And yes… we went deep into the chemistry too 😄 Because the transformation happening during cure is honestly fascinating: - chlorophyll degrading, - harsh compounds softening, - volatile terpenes stabilizing, - cannabinoids slowly evolving, - oxidation pathways beginning, - moisture redistributing through the flower itself. Even THC slowly evolves over time depending on oxygen, heat, UV exposure, and storage conditions. Everything is chemistry. Everything keeps moving. And good curing is essentially controlled aging. Not old weed. Finished weed. That difference matters. The roots deserve a huge mention too because once the root balls finally came out after harvest, the entire watering behavior suddenly made complete sense. Beautiful root development. Healthy structure. Excellent substrate colonization. And honestly? You can usually understand the story of the plant better after harvest than during growth itself sometimes. The roots explain everything: - feeding behavior, - drinking behavior, - vigor, - recovery, - structure, - and overall plant energy. Massive respect to these girls. We also fully cleaned and reset the room afterward because post-harvest cleaning matters enormously too: - fans disassembled, - dust removed, - oils checked, - equipment cleaned, - surfaces sanitized, - UVC treatment, - airflow reset, - and the environment prepared for the next chapter. A clean room is part of prevention. And prevention is always easier than solving problems later. The finger hash and temple balls turned out beautiful too. Soft. Greasy. Easy to work. Extremely aromatic. The kind of resin that almost melts itself with body heat alone. And honestly, the photos documenting the curing stages of the resin are some of my favorite images from this entire series because you can literally SEE the transformation happening: - oxidation, - terpene movement, - grease development, - crystal structure changes, - texture evolution, - and the beginning of long-term curing. Living chemistry. And that’s probably the best way to describe this entire run honestly: Living chemistry. From seed… to roots… to flowers… to resin… to cure… to smoke. Everything connected. Final dry numbers also made me extremely happy: Plant 1: 304.5 grams dry trimmed flower. Plant 2: 163.5 grams dry trimmed flower. Final total: 468 grams dry manicured cured flower. And for a 12/12-from-seed run? Absolutely fantastic. Especially considering the compact size these plants actually occupied physically. Small footprint. Big output. Beautiful quality. Exactly the kind of run that teaches you not to underestimate genetics. And finally… Thank you. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron. To the LEDs. The gear. The jars. The environment. The tools. The platform. The community. To the old followers. The new people arriving now. The silent supporters. The lurkers. The growers learning quietly in the background. The skeptics. The lovers. Even the haters 😄 If somebody spent even a few moments following this journey, then they became part of it too. And of course… Thank you Mr. Baggy 💙😄 Still surviving somehow after another full season. This chapter closes here. But honestly… the cure keeps evolving. The hash keeps aging. The jars keep changing. And the medicine will probably keep surprising us for months.

Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Week 9 here with our CREAM COOKIES by Fast Buds! January 21, 2020 (DAY 59) - Hey there growmies welcome to a fat week of large colas and frosty nuggets! SHE IS GROWING AMAZING! remember how worried i was!!😅 well she sure as hell clapped back harder than ever, she is so thick and frosty the nugs are filling out, i cant wait to smoke this.

Hello growmies, welcome to week 16, and the final day! 🍪 💜 It's really autumn in my tent now! 💛 ❤️ Thanks @Green_Buzz_Nutrients for sponsoring my grow, those products really do their job! 💚 If you want to give them a try, there's a generous discount code in my setup description. ⬇️ Thanks @SensiSeeds for the opportunity, let's do this!! 🚀 💚 🖤 _______________________________________________________________________________________ Purple Cookie Kush Feminized Seeds [Girl Scout Cookies x Purple Kush] Purple Cookie Kush Feminized seeds come from two well-known strains, Girl Scout Cookies and Purple Kush. The 60% indica / 40% sativa heritage leads to a well-balanced hybrid flower. Flavours range from grapes to sandalwood, and the terpene profile is a concoction of many complimentary aromas. Purple Cookie Kush Feminized is a short plant with good yields. Bud formation is dense, similar to many Kush strains. About Purple Cookie Kush Feminized Purple Cookie Kush Feminized takes the hottest GSC genetics and mashes them with a Purple Kush cultivar that was hand chosen for this project. No corners were cut in creating and selecting the right breeding stock for this fantastic strain. The result is a well-balanced hybrid that retains key qualities from its lineage. The Purple Kush parent of Purple Cookie Kush Feminized has a lot to contribute, as evidenced by the plant morphology. The compact nature and sturdy branching can be attributed to those indica-dominant genetics. Another area that the indica influence is evident is in the terpene profile, which includes scents of spicy hashish and earthiness. GSC contributes selected indica traits to Purple Cookie Kush Feminized, but the sativa side of the genes also had an impact. Complex, fruity expressions are detectable in both the mouth and nose of this strain. Before harvesting, during the last few weeks of flowering, growers will notice pleasant scents with floral notes lingering in the garden area. Growth pattern of Purple Cookie Kush Feminized Purple Cookie Kush Feminized seeds grow into a plant that represents in appearance both sativa and indica inheritance. Because this is a feminized strain, growers will not need to sex the plants at the early stages of flower and can accurately anticipate yields knowing that all plants will be flower-producing. Purple Cookie Kush Feminized has sturdy branches, similar to its GSC parent. The strong branches can support the weight of flower growth through harvest. The plant itself is stocky with a compact stature. This is attributed more to the Purple Kush influence. Due to the lower profile and many branches, defoliation is beneficial at various stages of growth. Indoor growers with a controlled climate report final heights in the 120 - 140 cm range. Purple Cookie Kush Feminized finishes flowering in a quick 50-60 day window, which is a distinctly indica quality. Outdoor growers in temperate / Mediterranean climates have seen plants reach over 160 cm with ideal weather. The bud formation of Purple Cookie Kush Feminized is similar to the popular Kush structure. Flowers are dense and compact. The buds are a mixture of swollen, trichome-covered bracts with dark forest-green foliage below. During the last weeks of flowering, the GSC influence adds purple hues to the vegetation. Purple Cookie Kush Feminized is a solid-performing, easy-to-maintain plant with good yields. It is not difficult to achieve the optimal indoor climate, and yields of 425 - 475 grams per m² are possible in these conditions. The ideal outdoor environment will have moderately warm weather and a small percentage of rain within the growing season. Growers in those regions have reported yields reaching 550 grams per plant, sometimes even more! Common plant training techniques are not crucial to the success of this robust, sturdy plant, but some growers looking to maximize yields will use them. Techniques that have been used with great success in canopy control include SOG, SCROG, Supercropping, and Lollipopping. Purple Cookie Kush Feminized handles them all without skipping a beat. Effects, taste and smell of Purple Cookie Kush Feminized The effects of Purple Cookie Kush Feminized usher in a more relaxed and easy-going day than most. It has the benefit of merging both indica and sativa attributes. Euphoric and uplifting effects are associated with sativa cultivars, and these effects are precisely how the Purple Cookie Kush Feminized experience begins. Blissfully distracted from the fast-paced world, thoughts shift to creative endeavours and inspirational goals. As these feelings are front and centre, a mild buzz begins radiating from the inner core. Soon, the indica-leaning effects are felt. Effects turn towards the loosening of tense muscles, the easing of minor aches, and an embracing full-body stone. The flavour profile of Purple Cookie Kush Feminized is almost like a full-course meal. The pairing of flavours is unique and somehow works perfectly. The taste of fresh peeled grapes sits well with the coffee and caramel elements. The indica genetics once again show their dominance with undertones of earthiness and spicy sandalwood to complete the flavour profile. Purple Cookie Kush Feminized has an unmistakably loud grape smell. This trait is not commonly seen in cannabis, but it is fully displayed with this strain. The remainder of the terpene profile is what many would consider the finer aromatic qualities of the GSC strain. Scents of spicy hashish float through the air, complementing the grape aroma whenever the jar is opened. Background notes of earth and sandalwood add another enjoyable layer to the terpene profile. https://sensiseeds.com/en/research/purple-cookie-kush-feminized?sqr=purple%20cookie _______________________________________________________________________________________ Setup: 140x70x200 cm Spiderfarmer tent 2x Monkey 16W fans (not oscillating) 1x Secret Jardin 30W 1x box fan 50W oscillating (on lowest level) LED Full Spectrum 320W AGLEX AGL-320W-MA 5,6 kg foldable, dimmable 864 pieces Samsung LH301H 864umol/s 2,7umol/J full spectrum white + RED 660nm + IR 740nm wavelength range 380-780nm covering 3x4ft Green Buzz Nutrients https://greenbuzzliquids.com/ ❗ Use code GD42025 for generous 25% discount (for orders of minimum 75€) Biobizz Lightmix + coco + wormcastings + perlite Carbon Active Granulate Filter 125/360 cm³/h PrimaKlima exhaust EC 125-400/240 cm³/h

She starts to drink a lot now , final week stretch then she goes full flower

letting the girls stretch their legs

Gave the 2nd dose and flipped to flower on 22/06 Kinda heavy defoliation on 24/06 🤞🏻

week intel: its time to harvest some of plants the ones that is mature enough. indica dominant plants will done first always so we should harvest them first because my base nutrients and one of boosters was salt based, i'll do flushing this week to get some relieve to plants in the last days stresses : flushing Drought stress via watering only one time with flushing this week feeding: day 1 : i flushed them with Advanced Nutrients Flawless finish and adjusted ph day 3 : no more feeding from now on day 5 : no more feeding from now on guide of the week : i harvest in 2 parts : first i harvest top of the branches and will let the lower buds to ripe another week then ill harvest the second wave. indica dominant plants will get done 1 or 2 weeks sooner than sativa dominant plants that will often takes more than 8 weeks so be aware to harvest them sooner. my dry and cure style is this: 3 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 3 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. im happy as hell with this harvest :D.
