Pheno 1: strong natural tart cherries with a slight candy Pheno 2: loud cherry candy Pheno 3: cherry fun dip Pheno 4: cherries mashed with earthiness Pheno 5: the strongest cherry pheno I’ve ever smelt. Just loud cherries in your face. I kept pheno 3 and 5. I pressed both into rosin and the terps were insane it smelt like I worked a double at the marischino cherry factory. The terps on 3 were cherries on the inhale with a candy fun dip exhale (absolutely up my alley). Pheno 5 was the most in your face cherry I’ve ever tasted. It was straight cherries throughout the inhale exhale with a slight tart/candy on the back end. I have found my cherry phenos for my future business. Thank you for riding this journey with me. Harvest results on my YouTube channel link in my bio!

Strain: Chocolate Haze (Royal Queen Seeds) Medium: Coco bricks (Action budget bricks – hell yeah 💰) Light cycle: 12/12 from seed Grow Style: No training, no stress – just flow Grow Medium Prep: 500L of coco – never again in one go 😅 The Kickoff 🚀 This run started off wild and direct – no veg time, straight into 12/12 with Chocolate Haze. I wanted a quick turnaround and thought, hey, why wait? I germinated 14 seeds, hoping for at least 9 strong ladies. Ended up with 11 survivors – not bad! First few weeks were a bit chaotic: stretching due to low light (I tucked the seedlings under mature plants, which I do not recommend 😆), and the coco prep took way longer than expected. But hey, that's the game. Early Veg/Bloom — Lessons Learned pH: Started a bit high; some light green leaves at first EC: Too low at 1.3 — they weren't having it. Upped to 1.7 and then to 2.1 later Environment: New extractor dropped temps way down (25°C vs my usual 30°C). Thought it would help, but growth felt slower Coco quirks: They looked overwatered at times, but coco is tricky like that. Eventually, roots hit the bottom and they took off Around mid-March (3 weeks in), pistils showed up – officially the start of flower. I topped them once just before full bloom kicked in. Always a strange move, cutting healthy plants... but they bounced back beautifully. Nice and bushy now. Week 2–5 Flowering 🌸 These ladies are small but mighty. Not tall, but full of energy. The canopy is tight and even (except for one shorty), and they've been stretching like crazy — classic sativa move. Had to raise the lights twice in two days. I’ll probably do some defoliation soon to slow things down a bit. Environment is now dialed in: Temp: 30°C with lights on RH: Holding nicely in that humid sweet spot CO₂: Set to 500ppm (passive mostly, no full-on enrichment) Feeding is now solid, color has recovered beautifully, and the buds are starting to form nice stacks. I’ve kept it low-stress — no nets, no heavy training, just letting them do their thing. Observations & Setup Tweaks 🔧 Ventilation: Running the fan at just 30% now. Tent takes 18 seconds to vacuum seal, which tells me airflow is minimal – less CO₂ loss. CO₂ System: Minimal usage at 500 ppm. I’m not going all-out with gas bottles; it’s just there as a buffer. Structure: These Chocolate Haze plants don’t get tall, but they do fill out nicely. Perfect for a space where height is limited. Auto side note: One of the autos in the same tent is way taller, but less dense. Makes me appreciate the Chocolate Haze structure even more. Current Status (April 17) 📆 We’re deep into flower now — week 5, and it shows. Buds are swelling and resin production is kicking in. Nothing major to report (which is kind of the point of this grow — set and forget). Just a slight dry issue with one auto, which I adjusted on the Blumats. Besides that? Happy plants, happy grower. 🌞 Check the latest pics — they speak for themselves. Final Thoughts (So Far) 💭 This Chocolate Haze grow has been chill, efficient, and surprisingly hands-off. The direct 12/12 schedule really works when you're going for a fast cycle with minimal hassle. And even though I’m usually more into hybrids, this sativa-dominant lady is winning me over — the structure, the vigor, the smell… mmm. Now we wait for the real magic — the last few weeks of flower. Trichomes incoming. 🍫✨ Stay tuned for harvest updates — it’s gonna be sweet. Feel free to drop any questions or thoughts. Always happy to share the love for the plant. 💚 Peace

Ahí siguen las piñas en su camino..🍍🛣️ Ya la tercera semana y veo que van creciendo muy lento, entiendo que es por la falta de vatios, porque la condiciones están siendo buena y comida les he dado muy poca. A ver cómo transcurren en esta semana, porque ya tengo ganas de pasarla a florecer 😅

Video at the end. Watering: 12.05. 3,70kg - 4,27kg 14.05. 3,6kg - 3,9kg 17.05 3,6kg - 4,6kg (1g green house powder feeding "grow" in 1L of water) The training is going well, I added some force here and there. Plant seems to be happy. I decided to order some powder feeding fertilizer, since the plant is now starting week 4 and is still quite small. Update: 1g greenhouse powder feeding in 1L of water used at the end of week 4.

🍌Germination went very well, here I am with 5 seedlings of Banana Krumble , I will continue the adventure with 4 of them. 🌴 I can't wait to see what they have to offer me. Big tasty buds I hope🍌😁 After a short week of growth I place my seedlings in their final 7Liters pot with a mixture that I made. I use unfertilized soil as a base.🌱 And I add organic nutrients from GreenHouseFeeding that I mix at the top of the pot (35Grams BioGrow 14Grams Biobloom). Then I water each pot with 1L of water.💧 I use tap water. I lower the pH and sometimes add a little BioEnhancer😘 My Instagram 🌱❤️️ : https://www.instagram.com/hou_stone420/ ------------------------------------------ Equipment used : Light FC3000 Mars hydro. power 25% at 30cm Extractor 6 inch Mars Hydro. power 1/10. ON 24/24h No other fan this week Heating mat Romberg 95x95cm. ON half an hour every hour 👌 ☄️🌠🌠🌠🌟 Have a nice day buddies, thanks for your visit 🙏👋

Howdy fellas it's day 54 of flower. Yesterday I had a defolliation going. Most of the bigger leafs had to go. Im feeding water only since 8 days. I guess 10 more days and they should be ready. The smell of especially 3G and Wedding Gelato is crazy. Both North Thunderfuck have also nice smell and are very high yield plants. Hulkberry is also looking really good but will take a Lil bit longer than the other ones. I wish everyone a nice day 😊

Welcome to my Alien Moonrocks Diary. Have to say, out of all 3 plants from original sensible seeds. They have been the biggest, easiest plants I've ever grown. They don't demand much in the way of nutrients are really great growers. The stems that come off from the nodes are huge. And have nice flower points that will no doubt make for some great harvests. (Touch bud). This lady has been ran off Terra Power and has loved the enzymes. The roots are practically coming out of all drainage holes at the end of the pot. The silca has really taken affect too make for really strong leafs and nodes that responsed really well to late LST. In her 1st week of pre flower she grew 13cm. I've been using my far red IR 730nm to increase the lighting time the plant is under and the change has been so rapid. Usually what takes the other females I grew, takes a week before I'd see pistils. Within 2 days I've seen pistils and well has came together really well. All her flower sites on top & below they are all showing signs of sex and throwing it pistils.. can't wait to see her in a few weeks to see her true pedigree. Shout out to my sponsors from mars hydro & Original Sensible Seeds, (reps) Much appreciated for your support and products guys.

Will update further after cure complete. Harvested at beginning of 14th week from seed. Of the three plants that finished in this run, this one probably got the best flush even though it wasn't the longest. Started to see yellow and blue by the time it was cut. Mild trimming at harvest. Went 10 days drying at around 60-70RH. Dried on string in boxes, dry trimmed some, moved to paper bag for a few days where RH ended up at 58. May have over dried slightly. Sealed paper bag inside a plastic bag for a few days before continuing to jarring. My drying process was experimental, but wanted better smell from buds than what I'd achieved with other plants grown with this one. The smaller stunted cheese smelled amazing, but the smell faded during dry/cure and it didn't taste the best. That one got the least days flush, but its potential was still evident. This cheese had more dense buds (still not as dense as Early Miss). Some of the buds turned out bluish, most likely because night temps were 57-60F and it was colder during 48 hours dark. It smells just like the other cheese--both Canuk freebies from separate orders. The smoking experience is mild to moderate with a heavy indica lean. Mild-to-moderate head. No anxiety. Heavy body. Too much and it can cause drowsiness. Good night cap cultivar for me. At first, I thought this one didn't smell as strong as the first cheese, but I must be getting desensitized because others say it reeks. I would definitely grow this again, but I doubt mine got up to the advertised 22% THC. More like 15. Yes, this plant was stressed in early grow, but rebounded nicely. Relative to the Early Miss from CKS also in this grow, this cheese is maybe a little less potent even though the Cheese is supposed to be more potent according to the respective company's information. It would make sense that Canuk's cheese is similar to other/original cheese strains which seem to be listed around 15% THC, but who knows, maybe it could become killer with a better grow/grower.
