Hey all sorry for the late update. Got really busy with work and just wasnt uploading. I had to cull phat Gary cause she was a genetic herm, I’m talking pollen sacks all the way up the main stem. I’ve seen a few stress sacks here and there on the lowers but nothing like this. I added a video of it so you might know what to look out for. It’s my first experience with exotic genetix and while I have heard of them having herm issues before, I have never had anything quite like phat Gary. But, on the other hand, this Gary Poppins #2 is the best smelling plant I’ve ever had. She smells like a straight strawberry soda, just this very fizzy strawberry scent. It’s unreal. Gary Poppins #1 has a similar terp profile, but not as loud and she’s frosty as ever. Both the perm marker s1’s are identical. Both look exactly like the perm marker flower I’ve bought from seed junky in the past. Very lime green buds with light oranges hairs. Smells just like a permanent marker. Couldn’t be happier with how this run is going, well except Phat Gary. Still haven’t decided on Exotic Genetix yet. I guess we will wait and see how Blueberry Gary comes out, she’s currently in week 6 veg. Shout out to the mad scientist Jbeezy though, this perm marker is unreal. When I saw he was releasing s1’s I couldn’t believe it. Gonna wash this entire run for some fresh frozen. I would absolutely love to get this Gary Poppins #2 smell to transfer to some live rosin. Will update this when we finish and I’ll make a diary for blueberry Gary and Gastro pop from compound genetics when I get a chance. Until then, happy growing all Day: 52F - Week 8 🌡️:79 Fahrenheit 💦:50% 💡:75% @ 14 inches

Planted just one seed November 29 into coco and a very light 4-4-4 Gaia and perlite blend. Pint size container for now, at some pint soon I’ll replant it into a 3 gallon fabric pot. I just saw the seedling coming out of the soil today.

Cant take my eyes off my plant. This is my second round of growing and I am the type of person who learns through failure (not gonna upload the pics of the first round plants lol). The buds are thickening up very nicely. Hoping to get between 3-4oz , the strain is high yielding but I have a smaller tent. My auto yielded 2oz with the same space (2 plants in one tent splitting the space), but the buds definitely didn't develop as well as these buds.

Plants are looks great .. 2 of the plants have huge colas already and getting bigger and fatter everyday.. I'm hoping the other 2 catch up ..lol Been having some issues while mixing my nutrients in my resivor.. Got alot of great info from other growers on GD network and was able to resolve my issues... Turns out the rhino skin was causing all the issues ... Since getting some help I havent had any issue with the nutrients mixture.. I also cut down on how much additives I add each feed.. Also notice my stems are purple... from what I remember they were always purple since I got the clones ... maybe genetics or sulfur deficiency or something ... anyways to far into the week to be worried about that , although this maybe why 2 of the plants have slower bud production..

Week 8 Looking absolutely huge😂 They’re so tall and wide . Lots of healthy green leaves and strong roots. I was worrying a lot about sex issues as when I did my research I found out they’re quite common to hermaphrodite. Was really worrying but all calyx’s have female signs (so far🙏🏻) so pray for me brothers&sisters.

Week 16 Day 106 | 25/10/2021: No time today Day 107 | 26/10/2021:💧 They just look so amazing, I can't stop looking at them I think this will be the last watering with nutrients actually, I realised this is meant to be their 2nd last week! Gave them 3ml CalMag, 4.5ml TopMax, and 4.5ml BioBloom. They grow up so fast :’) Day 108 | 27/10/2021: No time today Day 109 | 28/10/2021: No time today Day 110 | 29/10/2021 :💧 So the flush starts today! Actually it’s not a pure flush because I’m still adding TopMax to this watering just to give them that last boost (6ml). I also checked the trichomes and I think I will give them some extra time so will harvest sometime in the middle of week 18 Day 111 | 30/10/2021: No time today Day 112 | 31/10/2021: Girls A & D got a bit of a photoshoot today with better lighting! I still wish I had a better macro camera because the trichome details are really not being captured well. But their colours are still amazing 😍

_____Week 6 | Day 42-49 ______ Day 42 - 48 🌞 ------ Not much happened this week. I had little time for pictures and documentation. This week I just made sure that the new branches always get a lot of light and are not covered by other leafs. The plants have not grown much, because I constantly stress them and push them down. All new shoots that grow to size were topped, in the middle area of the plant, to keep everything nice and even Day 48 🌞 ------- each Plant 2 Liter...gluck, gluck, gluck.... ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Light - 18/6 h - 400 Watt 60% Dim. PPFD - 600 - 650 µmol Temp. - 24° Hum. - 70 % RLH

Cheese XXL is the third commercially available edition released by Original Sensible using and developing these Afghan and Skunk genetics. The first release of these genetics was their Skunk Afghani. The second improved version was Stinkin' Bishop, which had an enhanced and more potent THC content and was more intense in terms of smell. The third and improved release on a similar theme is this Cheese XXL, which has a similar THC content but an enhanced heavier yield. The smoke is incredible, with an outstanding flavor of pungent skunk and spicy, extra strong mature cheese created by the dominant terpene myrcene with its earthy solid scent accompanied by caryophyllene and pinene, which combine to create a peppery acrid cheesy odor. THC levels are exceptionally high in this Cheese strain, and the effect is well-balanced, developing mental and body relaxation with a remarkable alleviation of stress and depression. The intense solid aroma starts early in the flowering period; if you're growing Cheese XXL indoors, you'll need plenty of ventilation to disperse these babies' stinky "road kill" aroma! Cheese XXL is a cheese strain suited to indoor setups and thrives outdoors well. These feminized marijuana seeds are incredibly resistant to mold and disease and produce a substantial harvest that professional and amateur growers can quickly achieve. These Cheese weed seeds are outstanding. Break open the buds ready for use, and you'll see why the stench will make your eyes water! Cheese XXL from Original Sensible Seeds is a great choice to break into the commercial market of growing cannabis, so if you're looking to buy something special with extreme yield, potency, and flavor, Cheese XXL cannabis seeds are simply the best choice.

Welcome to week 21 of my grow diary. As the temperatures are rather average to cold, the soil stays moist for a long time. I have reduced the watering quantity to 5 litres every 3 days. The humidity rises a lot at night, so the plant is now spending the night in the garage. The smell is now super penetrating and you can smell the plant over several meters. See you next week ✌️
