So week 4 of flower is in the books and things are going well. Noticing a cal/mag issue in the jehovas witness but not the others. Growth has been strong and the fatality has taken over she has outgrown my five foot tent so am moving everything to a brand new 5x5 that’s 8 feet tall so I’m hoping I can spread them out some and allow light to reach the middle canopy because I have lollipopped all the lower larfy bullshit. Looking forward to a strong finish.

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

d39 ya no me caben dentro del Indoor, debajo del foco pequeño que tengo. Todavía se espera lluvia para la semana que viene, pero no caben y temo que alguna se ponga a florar por estrés, entonces las sacaré al exterior y las aclimataré. d40 Las he sacado a exterior , no les da mucho el sol, están a media sobra, esperemos que no se pongan a florar debido al cambio de fotoperiodo, son menos horas que en el Indoor, podía pasar, lo bueno es que las hemos sacado y ahora cada día están aumentando las horas de luz, mas o menos cada día tenemos 2 minutos más de sol, uno por la mañana y otro por la noche, amanece antes y se va más tarde poco a poco, si se adaptan bien, van a crecer mucho, pero si se ponen a floración veremos que hacemos, esperemos que no pase. Se le han puesto unas piedras para que se aguante la maceta, es de 2LT y con que haga viento la maceta se va al suelo y no queremos que pase eso. También se ha quitado el primer par de nodos LBP(Lower Branch Pruning), que normalmente salen ramas que no llegan a ser gran cosa. Se han quemado del sol, se ve que les da directo y no lo han soportado y se han secado, la tierra esta bastante seca al igual que muchas hojas, por suerte me he dado cuenta al cabo de unas horas, no esperaba que el sol ya pegase tan fuerte, las he cambiado de sitio y se han puesto donde no da el sol directo en ningún momento del día y están solamente a la sombra. Se han regado con un poquito de agua para que se recuperen, les he puesto una maceta más grande por fuera para que si diese el sol, que no le de a la maceta de dentro(2L) que es más pequeña y se calientan las raíces. d42 Se han regado y añadido aminoácidos(más Pro XXL 42% Aminoácidos) ya que eso ayudará a que la planta se recupere, por la tarde-noche les da el sol, no hay otro sitio que le de menos el sol directo, se han secado un pelín más la hojas, pero los brotes nuevos están blanditos y parece que las plantas seguirán creciendo bien.

Really can't complain about this plant. Despite her nutrient lockout issue, she turned out perfectly, and I couldn't be happier with the yield considering she was crammed in my tent with the other two plants. Definitely the most dense buds I've grown to date as well. Can't wait to grow again with more room and possibly a larger pot size 👌

🌿 Woche 26 – Mentha de Croco von Terpyz 🇩🇪 Die Entwicklung der Buds schreitet momentan wirklich hervorragend voran 🌸💚. Besonders bei der linken Pflanze sieht man inzwischen jeden Tag deutliche Fortschritte. Die Buds beginnen bereits wunderschön in der Sonne zu glitzern und die ersten Trichome machen richtig Lust auf das Endergebnis ✨☀️. Auch der Geruch beim Reiben an den Zuckerblättern wird immer spannender 👃🌿. Ich würde das aktuelle Aroma als zitronig, minzig, leicht lösemittelhaltig und mit einer feinen Beerennote beschreiben 🍋🍃. Eine wirklich interessante Kombination, die sich hoffentlich in den kommenden Wochen noch weiter entwickelt. Der Breeder erwähnt, dass es bei diesem Cultivar seltene Blaubeer-Phenos geben soll, deren Buds allerdings Unterstützung benötigen 🌸. Ich könnte mir durchaus vorstellen, dass sich die linke Pflanze in diese Richtung entwickelt. Natürlich ist es dafür noch viel zu früh, um das sicher zu sagen, aber die Kombination aus Aroma und ihrer bisherigen Entwicklung macht mich definitiv neugierig 👀. Von allen drei Pflanzen in meinem aktuellen Grow riecht die linke Mentha de Croco momentan tatsächlich am besten 😍. Ich bin deshalb besonders gespannt, wie sich ihr Aroma bis zur Ernte noch verändert. Die rechte Pflanze ist im Vergleich momentan etwas unspektakulärer 🌿. Dafür scheint ihre Struktur etwas unkomplizierter zu sein, sodass ich mir bei ihr wahrscheinlich etwas weniger Sorgen um die Unterstützung der Buds machen muss 🌸. Bei der linken Pflanze werde ich das Gewicht der Buds definitiv weiter im Auge behalten. Beim Wasserverbrauch liege ich momentan bei ungefähr 2,5–4 Litern pro Pflanze und Tag 💧. Das hängt inzwischen stark davon ab, wie warm es tagsüber wird. Diese Woche soll es noch einmal etwas wärmer werden ☀️🌡️ – für die weitere Blütenentwicklung dürfte das durchaus hilfreich sein. Langsam steigt bei mir wirklich die Vorfreude auf das Endergebnis 😍🌸. Gerade die linke Pflanze macht mich mit ihrem Aroma und dem zunehmenden Trichombesatz richtig neugierig. Jetzt heißt es weiter beobachten, das Wetter genießen und hoffen, dass die Pflanzen ihre Buds noch ordentlich weiter aufbauen 🤞🌿. 🌿 Week 26 – Mentha de Croco by Terpyz 🇬🇧 The bud development is progressing really well at the moment 🌸💚. Especially on the left plant, I can see noticeable changes almost every day. The buds are already sparkling beautifully in the sunlight, and seeing the first serious layer of trichomes is making me really excited about the final result ✨☀️. The aroma when rubbing the sugar leaves is becoming more and more interesting as well 👃🌿. At the moment, I would describe it as lemony, minty, slightly solvent-like, with a subtle berry note 🍋🍃. It’s a really fascinating combination and I hope the terpene profile continues to develop over the next few weeks. The breeder mentions that this cultivar can occasionally produce rare blueberry phenotypes, although those buds apparently need some additional support 🌸. I could definitely imagine the left plant moving in that direction. Of course, it’s still far too early to say that for sure, but the combination of its aroma and overall development definitely has me curious 👀. Out of all three plants in my current grow, the left Mentha de Croco actually smells the best at the moment 😍. I’m therefore especially interested to see how her aroma develops by harvest. The right plant is a little less spectacular for now 🌿. However, its structure seems somewhat easier to manage, so I’m expecting slightly fewer concerns about supporting the buds 🌸. I’ll definitely keep a close eye on the weight of the buds on the left plant. Water consumption is currently around 2.5–4 litres per plant per day 💧. It varies quite a bit depending on daytime temperatures. It’s supposed to get a little warmer again this week ☀️🌡️, which should hopefully help with further bud development. I’m getting more and more excited about the final result 😍🌸. The left plant in particular has me really curious with her aroma and increasing trichome coverage. For now, it’s all about watching the plants develop, enjoying the warmer weather and hoping they continue to stack up those beautiful buds 🤞🌿.

Well, this is certainly a special strain. MASSIVE colas and rock hard nugs combined with an earthy flavor is an instant winner in my books. 124 dried and cured grams from one plant in a 3 gallon hand watered soiless mix, so this genetic definitely has the potential for more greatness. Smoking on this now and it is a smooth smoke with a relaxing and uplifting body feel to it. A long lasting stone and a very pungent smell. Fastbuds did a great job on this product.

Partially drained the tank at the start of the week and topped up with ro water and 1ml of final solution per Litre. Last 2.5 days were in darkness. I trimmed the majority of fan leaves before hanging up to dry in the tent today. Started out trimming with the plants in the tent and soon realised it would be much easier to just cut them down whole, hang them upside down outside the tent and trim them up a bit. I have a small dehumidifier and a small fan heater setup in the tent and they have been keeping a humidity level of about 60% and a temp of 16 Celsius for the last few days while the lights have been off. I figure that's a good starting point for drying and I can increase the temperature if needed, that will drop the humidity also. Intake fan at the bottom and extract fan at the top are running constantly as they have been since the grow started (low power 4" fans). I might add back in a fan for circulation depending on how the drying goes, or maybe even trim or hang the plants better to get more airflow around the buds

08/03/21: Week 8!!! Her color is finally starting fade (about time lol) we're hoping she flushes fast from here.. we poked around and seeds don't seem to be as big an issue as once thought..her buds have swelled noticeably in the last 3 days, trichs are mostly cloudy..she's getting close 💪🐱💡🌱 08/05/21: We purchased another new 315watt CMH to replace the 630watt that has been blowing bulbs (we were only running1 bulb in it lately)..the plants seem to do better for us with x2 315 lights spread out than 2 bulbs under the same hood..I'm really liking the wider spacing the clones have, they just finished their flower stretch under 315watts and the nodes are about 2-3 inches apart and not stacked tight like they usually were..we may buy another one of these lights just to have on hand...feel free to leave a comment or any suggestions that might help us improve, thank you for reading and happy growing everyone ❤️💡🌱🐈

I have to say, overall out of all 5 purple Lemonade seeds I’m not very happy with the results so far considering they was a little more pricey & the fact that I know how good these plants can turn out! Not sure if I just got some bad genetics or what’s up but pretty bummed about this run so far😅😅 hopefully things will start to look up! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!✌️🏼🌱 Day 24 - Decided to pull the smallest purple lemonade that wasn’t doing anything so I can go ahead and get something else going in it’s place! Watered the other ladies today. Day 25 - Ladies are still stretching like crazy!

I’m about to lose it. Big progress both from the broken stem and the plant as a whole. I think though the accident was very stressful and it turn it into a hermie. Once the lovely community makes sure I got a hermie I will cut the balls off(no cap). Day 36, one day after the hermie incident.I cut the sacs of and keeping a really close eye on it.Like checking every hour on different lighting again and again. Main cola looks like neither full bounced back, nor losing the battle from the harm I did to her in the middle of the fifth week,the tape is still on. I'm anxious if I face a light stress till the full recovery of the stem. I can't LST thats for sure and I have an HPS lamp. I'm aware that my yields will not be the same as the true potencial of the strain but I'm sure the taste and high will be diffrent for me due to the work I'm putting in and the "stress" I'm going through. Day 37: No sight of sacs. Looks thirsty every day and sometimes I water twice.The soil is dry one the first cm.

Start Flush

🌱 Growing too nice! She kept on stretching like crazy, growing 3 cm every day. The small tent couldn't handle her anymore, so she got promoted to the 60x60x180 cm Tent. Buds are really visible now and only the tops are stretching even more to indicate the final colas. Day 43 💧 watered with 3,5L, pH 6 and 3ml/l CalMag, 1 ml/l grow, 0,7 ml/l micro and 0,4 ml/l bloom coming in at 1200 ppm. Day 45 💧 Thirsty again, so she got 4L with 2,5 ml/l CalMag, 0,7 ml/l grow, 1,5 ml/l micro and 1,2 ml/l of bloom resulting in 1200 ppm. I wanted to try lowering CalMag slowly because i wasn't sure if she still needed that much. Day 49 ❗I realized, that i was still feeding her growing nutrients because i forgot to switch to preflower ratios... Not a huge deal but still unfortunate. 💧 Watered with 3,5L, 0,6 ml/l grow, 0,9 ml/l micro, 0,8 ml/l bloom and 3 ml/l CalMag -- 1150 ppm

Una semanita que empezó nublada.
