Initially ran this plant as a way to get dial in my tent and setup while coming to grasp with tent growing in general. Since its an autoflower the growing was easy. However this is a very commercial seed bank and the quality you get is in line with that. Now i'm moving, getting a larger setup, and going to run more genetics. Zamnesia will not be a part of that.

Hey fellow growers welcome to the start of week 5 of flower!! Things are starting to take shape after the nana scare I’ve been keeping a close eye on the lady’s. There being fed every second day and wanting more as they gain size. All plants are starting to frost up but big bud 2 is at another level with sticky stinky colas. Fingers crossed they will continue to just do what there doing gaining size and frosting up. We did get in there and do the final defoliation a week late but that’s what happens when you work fifo and can’t be here at all times. They will get another feed today. Until next week happy growing 🤙🏻🤙🏻

She's getting close! Into week 9 of flower. She's definitely packing on the weight and she is super resinous. I'm going to start the flush now. I think I'm going to give her 2 more weeks and then its chop time. The buds are looking beautifully dense and delicious. Can't wait to smoke one.

 With true love comes happiness , Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 Growers love to you all <3 <3 <3 Here are the words from this peace of art from nature creator Shapeshifter's @ HI-ELEVATION GENETICS <3 <3 <3 "FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q. 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

Week 7 begins for Mandarin dreams. Both ladies are looking good and healthy, bud sites continue to bulk up and frost up. The shirt smell from MD1 has gone away, it's current smell is a bit earthy. Switched out big bud coco for overdrive as we approach the end of the grow. Thanks for checking in, tune in next week! 👽🌳🔥

Day 59 since seed touched soil. We have first proper sunny day in two month !!!! Thought to top up with PK, but its too early, they barely developed during those 11 days. Ducks develops slowly, but today beeing there in day time, i saw how forest occupied all space. This garden needs good bramble clearing, everything overgrew, only river bank gives them sun possibility. So in such conditions its not a surprise, that they are small and miss power... Think few good days sorted overwatering issues, leaves are straight and nice, colour healthy green, so it should be some smoke at the end. Will visit in 9 days to top up ;) This page went nuts totally, now photos uploaded in wrong format, can't rotate, nothing helps ..... Happy Growing !!!

Devido a Rega a cada dois dias, resolvi fracionar a dosagem semanal de fertilização para toda Rega, sendo assim, rego a cada dois dias da semana, totalizando três regas semanais, com isso fraciono a dosagem para 2ml líquido e 0,16g de mineral a cada litro d'água, totalizando 6ml líquido e 0,50g de mineral por semana.

Report Tag 22 : Willkommen in der dritten Woche 🌿 Es ist der 15 Tag nach Bildung der ersten zackigen Blätter 🌿 Da ich die Tage erst mit einer Nährlösung gegossen habe, bleiben die Gartenwerkzeuge heute alle an ihrem Platz. Höhe der Pflanzen : Purple Haze Auto 11,5 cm Frostbanger Auto 12,5 cm Z-UP 13 cm Report Tag 23 : 🌿16🌿 Heute kam der UPS Wagen und hat mir neue Souvenirs gebracht. Flotte Knoppen (ruhrpottisch für FastBuds) selbstverständlich und dabei waren auch Sticker der drei Strains. Natürlich dürfen die Sticker in dem Grow Report nicht fehlen 😃 Auch heute gibt es nichts zu tun, außer das Wetter draußen zu genießen ☀️ Die Mädels sind nun : Purple Haze Auto 12,5 cm Frostbanger Auto 13 cm Z-UP Auto 13 cm Report Tag 24 : Es ist Wachstumstag Nummer 17 🌿 Heute ist nichts mit den Pflanzen geplant. Tägliches Update über die Höhe der Pflanzen gibt es trotzdem : Frostbanger Auto 14 cm Purple Haze Auto 13,5 cm Z-UP Auto 14 cm Report Tag 25 : 18.Wachstumstag 🌿 Alle Pflanzen sind wieder gleich groß. Z-UP Auto 14,5 cm Frostbanger Auto 14,5 cm Purple Haze Auto 14,5 cm Melde mich morgen mit einem ausführlichen Bericht morgen steht einiges an. Report Tag 26 : Seid gegrüßt zu Wachstumstag 19 🌿 Heute war ein aufregender Tag und ich habe mich tatsächlich getraut meine erste Autoflower zu toppen. Es war ein langes hin und her ob, wann und welche Pflanze ich toppen soll. Dass ich eine Pflanze toppen werde, davon haben mich Sebastian und Bernie von FastBuds mich nach ihren professionellen Antworten in ihren letzten deutschen Livestream überzeugt. Meine erste Wahl wäre die Z-UP Auto gewesen, da ich davon noch einen weiteren Samen habe. Doch als ich heute das Zelt öffnete und sie mir anschaute entdeckte ich schon die ersten weißen Haare an der Z-UP Auto und somit ist es mir dann doch zu riskant. Die Purple Haze Auto wird nicht getoppt da sie eh schon einen kurzen Lebenszyklus hat und ich auf ein frohes Farbenspiel hoffe. Somit blieb mir nur noch die Frostbanger Auto und Schnipp, Schnapp der Kopf ist ab ✂️🌿 Jede Pflanze wurde mit 1,5 Liter Nährstofflösung gegossen. ( 1,5 Liter Chlorfreies Wasser + 1,5 g Bactrex + 3 ml Orgatrex + 2ml Bio PK 5-8 ) Zu guter Letzt wurden alle drei Damen noch mit 5 ml / Liter Biotabs Boom Boom Spray eingesprüht. Die Größe aller Pflanzen beträgt 15 cm Frostbanger Auto 15 cm Purple Haze Auto 15 cm Z-UP Auto 15 cm Bis morgen 👋🏼 Report Tag 27 : Halli, Hallo ! Wachstumstag 20 🌿 Zuallererst die Frostbanger Auto hat das Topping gut überstanden und zeigt keine Anzeichen von Stress 🙏🏼 Das war auch das wichtigste was zu berichten gibt. Alle drei wachsen fröhlich vor sich hin und werden mit jedem Tag etwas schöner 💚 Frostbanger Auto 15 cm Purple Haze Auto 15,5 cm Z-UP Auto 15,5 cm Schönen Sonntag euch allen 👋🏼 Report Tag 28 : Ich wünsche euch einen schönen Wochenstart! Es ist der 21. Wachstumstag 🌿 Die Größen der einzelnen Pflanzen : Z-UP Auto 16 cm Frostbanger Auto 16 cm Purple Haze Auto 16 cm Hoffe ihr seit alle zufrieden mit euren Gärten ! Bis nächste Woche 🌿 Ich hoffe es gefällt, euch was ihr zu sehen und lesen meinerseits bekommt. Ich bin dankbar für jedes Kommentar, sei es eine Anregung, eine Kritik, oder eine Frage.

Fast Buds Cream Cookies is still looking more yellowish than I prefer, but the buds are developing nicely, and she smells great! Gave her an overdose of Recharge to see if that helps bring some green color back to the leaves. So far, I haven't noticed any change in the leaves, maybe this week.

Week 6 went well, I switched to flowering nutrients along with cal mag at an EC of 1.4, and I am slowly raising until I hit an EC of 1.6 within a few days. I did defoliate twice this week, just to improve airflow, and also because the lower fan leaves I removed were not receiving significant light. The runoff of the fertigate is not exceeding 1.5 EC so I am happy with that. I am hoping to keep a minimal amount of colas, and hopefully pull some denser buds than I got my first run. So far I am very pleased with my Mars Hydro Sp250, and especially these genetics from Sweet Seeds. Thanks for checking me out, and blaze on!

24/03/23 beautiful and full of swollen buds and very thick branches, the smell they give off gives the idea of ​​what is being grown we are almost at the end of the flowering cycle. I water them regularly with bio bloom, bio grow, I removed a few leaves as they grew, and I didn't do anything anymore, nature did it all by itself! enjoy ___________ 28/03 we have almost reached the end of the flowering cycle, at most 15/20 days the buds are complete. the smell has invaded the whole room and is very strong!, the branches are very thick and full, I look forward to it! the fruits

26.12.24: These are my 2 best plants P1 and P2 Purple Punch, they are looking great! Not sure what happened to P3. They are in early flower/ pre-flower with the pistils clearly seen on P2. I am also hoping to tie some of the branches down to help light penetration on the lower canopies. I have noticed light stress on my plants. I had moved the lights further away and increased the light intensity to 70%. Unfortunately that created some issues. Namely severe palour of the leaves. To try and rectify the situation, I've dimmed the lights to about 30%, staying at the same distance, about 30 inches away. I measured the par levels, after I did this. They should a reading of anywhere between 40 and 150, at the canopy of the plants. They are all different sizes. This seems to have improved the colouring on all plants. After this evenings watering, I will monitor recovery and increase lighting intensity again slowly. I am also using the light cycle of 21/3, so the plants have many hours more light to absorb, than for example 12/12 or 18/6. I am pleased with the progress, considering all of my mistakes! 29.12.24: So I finally gave LST a shot, it's probably a bit too late, however I really want to get the most of the triploid pheno, and I went a little crazy and LST'd all plants except 2, as they're too small. I did that late last night, this afternoon I was amazed to see the plants turn their leaves back to the light source. I'm glad I overcame my fear of trying it. I'm very excited to see them adapt and progress! 😁 there are videos above with before and after of my LST process. Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️
