So this or these ladies are performing splendid..I like the fact that each plant has its own personality..One is nice and tall, the other short and stocky ...I mean it's a joy watching each of them move through a different stage but collectively...it's insane... But thanks for visiting...stay tuned for more weekly updates on this ladies...

end week 8. ------------ this week only water from all Gorillas the buds look very sticky and frosty. when I open the tent, it smells very strong. The 1 and 2 smelled pretty strong, chemically, the 3. more like citrus. I will harvest Gorilla 1 20.10. Gorilla 2 22.10 Gorilla 3 23.10 I made videos and pictures of the trichomes.

not much happened this week. there was a lot of sunshine. a few stormy days and some rain. she is still doing well and is growing steadily and the flowers are getting thicker. she is now also getting biobizz top-max

Let’s Go Day day 61 from seed !!! This week went real well! As you can see all these girls are starting to stack very well! Everything is pretty much the same, we have switched to fully bloom an these ladies are just Looking super healthy , we are getting a nice smell of grapes on these Ogreberrys ! Bruce Banner is packing crystals like a Mofo too an super stanky , all very happy about this run ! Still got a nice few more weeks of bloom to go let’s watch em stack ! Lets grow lil ladies let’s grow !! Hope you all enjoy an have an amazing productive day ! Peace love an positive vibes to all you Growmies out there Cheers 😶‍🌫️💨💨💨💨💨🤙🏻 If there’s any questions please just ask I’ll be glad to help !!

Another week, not much to report, flowering beautifully and smelling like heaven. Did some minor defoliation. Day 75 - did some major defoliation, they are really really sticky and smelling super nice. Watered with enhancer.

Dia 21 de floracion, las plantas cada vez van desprendiendo un olorcito mas intenso, hojas como lechugas. Simplemente espectacular.

Day 64 my baby is going really well by now, she s been running fast until now and I think that’s enough with fertiliser. From today o start my flush, I will give today my last dose of regulator and from next irrigation just on controlled water until the end of maturation, I want this baby to eat everything . day 65 started flushing. ph controlled water at 6.0 i think 20 more days at max before m Day 68 First check with micro today. The baby looks already milky and amber on the top buds but the rest of the plant is still transparent. I’ll wait at least until this weekend for a re check maybe I’ll cut her in two rounds. As I be been watching a lot with micro I noticed so many dust and other stuff on the buds so I think I’ll wash her in water. Today watered ph 6. Let’s see! 🌱🔥🌱🔥🌱🔥🔥

Coming so.

This is the frostiest one of the 3 from the autoflower classics mix pack! I'm excited to see how flavorful this one is. I've heard it's not the most potent but that it's got amazing flavor. Check back next week for more thanks for following along this grow!

Flowering is well under way! one of the Banana Purple Punches is already kind enough to start purpling! Rootjuice has been faded out to 0. Watering on 13/03 with 4 ml/L of terra bloom, 1,4 EC, 1.5L each per plant Watering on 16/03 with 5 ml/L of terra bloom, 1.6 EC, 1.5L each per plant Defoliated today, hopefully for the last time. Mainly the insides of every plant where it gets too bushy. i used the trellis net in the early week of veg just to help me spread the branches out, now im unsure of what to do with it (continue, dont continue etc) since im pretty happy with how the plants turned out training wise. it still functions to hold my humidity sensors i can check over my feed so its not "useless" lol

Yep nice

For those who follow me could see that I was absent and I apologize to you and the ladies in this tent. These seedsman northern lights are tough. I was out of town for work during their prime stretch phase and all they got was straight water added to the res. Two of them are specimens still and the one without the floraflex feeding cap isn’t getting the nutes distributed they way the plant likes so today I’ll modify one and see if I can make her happier. In the end I know they’ll end up strong but it was during the crucial stretch period and they needed more than they got. All we can do is move on and try to make them flourish. Thanks for looking. Have a great day.

Doing some LST

Day 18 Transplanted today the plants into their 11L pots.😊 While instead i will let the Lemon Tree grow for another 4/5 days in the same pot because she only got 13 days, so I prefer to have it strengthened a little before the transplant. Day 24 Mimosa, Meringue, and Kmintz were Topped, Defoliated and also applied a light LST to the main stems of the plants. I will do the same for the Lemon Tree in the next 2/3 days.. I hope they have a quick recovery 🤞🏻 Day 27 LST also performed on the side branches of all plants except the Kmintz which is too small to bend its branches. Also Today we got 21 days for the Lemon Tree which has a great shape! Carried out topping, LST and a little defoliation.. 🙌🏻 In the next few days I will let them grow them without further stress. Have a great weekend gromies!! ☮️💚

Day 23 stacking and packing!!! She’s getting stinky and dank...... got a slight nutrients burn on a couple remo nutrients plants been flushing to get the EC down lots of growth lots of trichome

I see that your dedication is total on the buttons, I will continue the lighter feeding going even further than the others this one needs more time due to its huge size, and part of the arms to bring energy.

This week was a busy one in the gardens! After a 7 day dry my harvest from last week was ready to come down! It did dry out a little quicker than I'd like, but still went in the jar around 57% and still smells really terpy and not like hay. I kept the humidity around 50-60% in the dry room however I didn't supplement humidity with a humidifier, i do have an ACI humidifier, but I didn't wanna run it in the summer and accidentally mold the crop! I just ran my dehumidifier at that setting so maybe it got a little dry in there! I trimmed all 5 plants in one day to prevent over drying in about 13 hours. I used a trim bin, trim brush by canna brush and a normal pair of springed shears. I'm curing in Mason jars now. I was able to move the plants in the tiny Mars Hydro Clone tent to my flowering tent. My Vivosun 4x8x6, under my HLG Blackbird at setting 1 to get adjusted. This week I'll get my par meter back from my grow bro and get a good reading. Im going to be transplanting these plants to their final containers as soon as I hit the local grow shop and grab a little more soil! After that I'll adjust the par for full veg and let them really rage! It feels good to finally get some space for them. My larger tent is way better equipped ventilation wise as well, I have 4 clip fans and my 8 inch exhaust fan in there. I currently have the tent sitting at 74-71°F and 56% Humidity. Ethos: Lilac Diesel #22 (x) Grandpa's Cookies #7- This Seedling has a decent internode spacing between it's branches and is keeping them mostly even with very little low stress training. I have been bending the top most branches to help the plant get a little bushier! It's leaves are very dark and doing a little clawing so I'm holding off on the Trinity by Roots Organic! It doesn't appear to bad! It's main stalk is very thick and reminds me of Raspberry Ripple #1! When it's in veg! I'm excited to see if this plant is one I'll keep around or not! I'm definitely hoping it's stretch in flower is containable in my shorter space! Raspberry Ripple Clones (#1 and #2)- The Number One Phenos are looking beefy already, one plant is starting to yellow just a little bit and looks like it could use a transplant here soon! Other than that these ladies are raging as usual. The higher ppfd has kept them really bushy and symmetrical. The Number 2s are still looking really healthy but are the smallest plants in the garden as usual! Finished Flowers (Raspberry Ripple #1 and #2)- This harvest definitely hits a lot harder than my last one! Having the microscope to really get a good look at my trichomes and pushing the plants and extra two weeks really made a big difference! Ripple #1- These buds are big and purple! Decently frosted! The leathery, black licorice smell Ripple #1 gives off, is really strong this round! The harvest weighed 7oz 25 grams, 6 oz and 16 grams of "A" Nugs, and 1 oz 9 grams of popcorn buds! Ripple #2- The Ripple #2 is a little less dense than the #1 but it is pretty frosty and smells like a mixture of yogurt and hazy weed. This harvest weighed 5 oz 20 g, 4 oz and 6 grams of decent sized nugs and 1 oz 13 grams of popcorn nugs. Giving me a total harvest of 13 oz and 17 grams, 10 oz and 20 grams of "A" nugs and 2 oz and 23 grams of popcorn nugs. In a 4 x 4. That pretty much sums up the harvest and this week! Thank you for checking out my growdiary! -Starfish

GMO Cookies Served with Extra Curiosity ?🍪 Curing & Smoke Review | Loud Garlic, Heavy Nights & The Story Continues And yes… once again 😄 We divided the reports. At this point I honestly think everyone following this diary already expected it. But the truth is simple: there was absolutely no way to properly document this entire journey inside one single update without rushing through details that genuinely deserved time and attention. So before anything else: thank you for following this ride with us. And even though this is technically the “final” smoke review and curing report… it actually is not the end yet. Because somewhere inside the freezer still rests: more than 700 grams of fresh frozen GMO Cookies waiting patiently for washing day. And when that day comes: * the ice, * the bags, * the machine, * the resin, * the separation, * the drying, * the pressing, * the final hash… all of that will absolutely deserve its own dedicated report too. So this is not goodbye. This is simply the end of the flower chapter. Now for the people arriving only now, let’s quickly recap how we got here. This entire GMO Cookies run was grown under a 12/12 from seed cycle from beginning until harvest. The plants were raised under the F.O.G. LED setup with environmental management focused on healthy development, airflow, resin production, and structure while allowing the genetics to express themselves naturally with minimal interruption. From the very beginning, these girls showed personality. Strong structure. Aggressive aroma. Fast resin production. And one very obvious characteristic: GARLIC. Not subtle garlic either. Real GMO garlic. The type of smell that instantly transforms the room atmosphere. During flower the room slowly evolved into this strange combination of: * savory kitchen aromas, * spicy funk, * greasy earthiness, * warm pepper notes, * and hidden sweetness underneath. And even now after curing for somewhere between one and a half to almost two months… it somehow keeps getting louder. Louder. Sharper. Deeper. The sweetness is still there, absolutely. But eventually the garlic takes control over almost everything else. And honestly? For GMO lovers… that is exactly what makes this cultivar beautiful. This is not candy weed. This is not fruity tropical smoothie terps. This is: funk, gas, pepper, savory grease, garlic, earth, and kitchen madness. It smells like a chef lost control inside a restaurant. And people who love GMO genetics will immediately understand exactly what that means 😄 Now, one thing we want to be transparent about: This flower is not dense. And honestly? That part falls mostly on me. The room temperatures during flower were simply slightly higher than what this specific cultivar truly wanted. Since multiple cultivars shared the room simultaneously, it became impossible to perfectly satisfy every plant equally, and this GMO clearly responded by holding a slightly fluffier structure compared to the others. But here is the important part: Density is not everything. Because what this flower lacks slightly in compactness… it completely compensates for in: * aroma, * terpene intensity, * resin quality, * effect, * flavor, * smoothness, * trichome coverage, * and overall personality. And honestly? Sometimes personality matters far more than rock-hard flowers. Especially when the medicine itself feels this enjoyable. During cure, the flowers rested primarily inside Grove Bags, with smaller portions also stored inside glass jars for comparison and monitoring. And surprisingly? Both methods preserved the flower beautifully. The terpene expression remained extremely similar between both storage methods, which honestly tells me one important thing: we hit the drying point correctly. That slow 10-day drying process around: * 60% humidity, * temperatures between 18–20°C, really helped stabilize the flowers before cure without overdrying them or stripping away the volatile compounds too aggressively. And once ground up? This flower becomes absolutely gorgeous. Seriously. The grinder reveals: * greens, * purples, * silver resin, * orange hairs, * greasy trichomes, * and this sparkling dusty texture that almost looks alive under proper light. Even visually, this cultivar feels special. The trichome coverage remained beautiful all the way through cure, and the flower still leaves visible greasy residue almost immediately after handling. And the smoke itself? Oh man… This is heavy medication. Not racey. Not anxious. Not overwhelming mentally. Just deep. Warm. Heavy. Relaxing. This is absolutely the type of cultivar I personally recommend for: * evenings, * late nights, * movie sessions, * gaming, * music, * stress release, * appetite stimulation, * body relaxation, * or simply ending the day peacefully. You feel it strongly in the body. The muscles soften. The shoulders drop. The body becomes heavier. And slowly the mind follows. Not in a chaotic way. Not paranoia. Not panic. Not confusion. Just: “Okay… the day is over now.” That type of effect. And honestly? I really enjoy that. The flavor follows the aroma beautifully too. Garlic dominates the experience heavily, but underneath there are: * spicy pepper notes, * savory warmth, * earthy funk, * slight sweetness, * and that strange greasy cookie profile GMO lovers chase so much. It lingers in the mouth too. Long after exhaling. And yes… the joints absolutely develop beautiful oil rings while burning. Slow greasy rings forming around the cherry exactly the way many resin lovers appreciate seeing. The ash burns clean. The smoke remains surprisingly smooth considering how aggressive the terpene profile actually is. And the appetite stimulation? Very real 😄 This thing absolutely activates the kitchen instincts. Now let’s talk numbers. The dried and properly prepared flower totals landed at: * 137.1g + 52.8g from the first dried branches * 224.2g from the drying rack flowers bringing the dry flower total to: 414.1 grams of cured GMO Cookies flower ready for consumption. And beyond that: there still remains over 700 grams of fresh frozen material waiting for future solventless work. Which honestly might become one of the most exciting chapters yet. Because the resin behavior from this cultivar already tells us something special is waiting there. Even the tiny amounts of hand-collected resin and trim-bin sift already produced: * dark greasy resin, * sticky temple balls, * oily texture, * and incredible aroma concentration. So expectations for the future wash are definitely very high. And before ending this final flower report, I wanted to include a few of the live-plant focus stacks and photographs again too. Not because they were necessary. But because honestly… this plant deserved it. Some flowers simply leave an impression. And this GMO Cookies genuinely did. From seed until cure, this cultivar remained fascinating: * visually, * aromatically, * structurally, * medicinally, * and photographically. Even now looking back at the live flower photographs still feels special. And before closing this chapter properly: Thank you. To Zamnesia. To F.O.G. To Plagron. To Human Pro. To Mammoth. To Grove Bags. To the platform. To the community. To the growers. To the hash makers. To the curious people following these long reports 😄 To everyone who spent even a few moments here with us throughout this journey. Cannabis truly is sacred to many of us. Not only as medicine. Not only as a hobby. But as culture, craft, ritual, community, and connection. And sharing these moments together honestly means a lot. So while this may be the final flower report for this GMO Cookies run… the story still is not fully finished yet. Because one day soon: the freezer opens. The ice melts. The resin separates. And this beautiful garlic monster returns one final time in hash form. 🌱

We're on week 10 and trichomes have just started going cloudy at a good rate 3 days ago, so its now time for the 10-20 day flush until harvest. The smell is getting super strong, its a very weird citrus, with a slight lemon hint(you can tell theres some diesel genetics in there), It almost stings your nose abit. Overall its not a bad smell just not as pleasant as some other strains but unique in a good way. Im not sure how im going to harvest this plant but most likely I will harvest some when all trichs are cloudy and some once a decent amount have gone amber, im gonna be growing some dank strains in future so this will be my more medical strain. I will be totalling all the yield numbers at the end, yield may be affected abit but I also want to see first hand how cloudy vs cloudy/amber trichs smokes.

The total height at harvest was 42". Measured from the top of the net pot to the tip of the cola...Almost too tall for the tent, when you add the light, distance and air filter. The wet/trimmed weight was 409g for one plant. Took about .3m2 of grow space. Super resistant to things like mites and changes in environmental conditions, and nutrient levels. Be careful at end of harvest, the buds are so fat, wet, and dense that mold/rot can quickly be a thing if not managed with humidity and airflow. I opened up the nodes a bit to help with air flow. The diameter of each main cola was 4" at time of harvest. I moved my fans around three times a day to make sure each side had some direct air for a few hours each day and kept RH under 55%. I let the cool air here at 7,000-foot elevation pour in at night and she prob got down to 52 degrees. Purples were very prominent, but I'm sure some will fade as the cure happens. I would totally grow this again.
