In a beginner grower pickle... they may look good, and though it seems I may have done everything right through veg, I am almost near sure I messed something up between flower weeks 2-5. They're maturing, but not nearly as much as I thought they would. By now, I imagined they'd have thick bushy white pistils covering at least 6-8 inches of the top of each Cola. So many mysteries. Is it the node spacing? If so, should have flipped earlier. Is it due to nutrient issues (too many nutes? didn't feed as much base as H&G suggested? Too big of a swing while trying to lower medium EC and PH in medium? Too much pruning on the top? The only real variable is the Banana Kush. BK is in the far back left and obviously the most difficult to reach and maintain. Initially last week when I flushed, I wasn't able to flush as adequately as other plants nor have I been able to trim, maintain, or LST as much as other two plants. This is the only plant as of right now that does not give off a chemical/nutrient/ammonia smell when I touch the buds, but rather a nice sweet, Banana smell, and it's bushier than the Trainwrexk and G13 Is it because I didn't trim.as much and the buds are feeding off leaf and stem nutrients? Is it because there are fewer bud sites for the light to concentrate on, and thus yield bigger colas? Or is it because I continued to feed this plant has continued to have a high intake of nutrient despite my best efforts of flushing and maintaing? In any event, I could just be the most impatient person ever, and I hope to be pleasantly surprised in the next week or so, or it's puffy popcorn tops for me. Day 85 Update: G13 has a ton of fan leaves turning fast. Pretty sure it's a PH issue. Should I wait until they're dead to trim them off or get rid of every fan leaf that is affected more than 50 percent of the leaf? Something definitely is going on. Could be nutes, could be lights, could be the strains.. who the hell knows but I thought they'd be much bigger and gurthy by now. They still look good but man I wish they produced more...

Well started flush on out door cheese well greenhouse indoor only just preflowering off site so less pics like the gorilla frisan duck so yeah more pics this week peace ended up chopping cheese 2 as bud rot struck so got rid and got 11.3 grams wet from 1 so quite low yield mould resistances not the best not the most crystals I have seen nor the least it's a 2 out of 10 so far yeah staying at 2 as was fun to grow but yeil was disgraceful 1.6 g dried she had the cheese smell and taste but little vegy so going to cure the remainder try in 2 weeks utterly as for the rest can't wait frisan duck has like 70+branches so she's going to be a nice harvest no pre flower yet peace

when you grow a feminised photoperiodic outdoors you have to bring time and patience. she is growing and is strong. still no sign of sex. she hasn't really had much stress, so i'm not worried about her turning male. i'll just keep growing her. her sister, RQS Power Flower is also doing very well. both have been given a homemade fertiliser made from aquafaber, coffee grounds and banana peel. they liked it very much.

This week went pretty well, other than she stretched like crazy and I am now getting worried about running out of vertical space. I also had a few of my bottom leaves get a few brown and yellow spots on them. I did post some pics and asked a question, thank you for the responses, much appreciated! I am thinking about adding my Spyder Farmer LED 100 Watt light into the tent for the nebula auto because it is about 23 inches shorter than the sour diesel. I believe it would only raise my temp about 2 degrees, and possibly lower the humidity by one or two percent. I must say my dehumidifier has been a freaking stud, running 24X7 and not complaining. I should look into adding another unit, it has been in the mid 90's and muggy for about a week. So far I have to say I am super impressed and excited with this setup, the genetics, and with growing this wonderful plant in general. Already planning ahead to my next grow, and what I can do better. I have been enjoying myself and I really appreciate everyone who has taken the time to answer my questions! I am having a blast and am excited to see what this lady will give up in a few weeks!

January 5, 2026 Hey everyone, quick update on my personal seed vault! The standout in the collection right now is my self-bred Gelato x Black Lebanon x Agent Orange line. These seeds come from a careful cross of a frosty Gelato cut, resin-packed Black Lebanon, and the citrus powerhouse Agent Orange. Expect dense, trichome-heavy buds with a complex terp profile: creamy gelato sweetness, earthy/hashy depth from the Lebanon, and a bright orange punch on the finish. Special note: The straight Gelato x Black Lebanon seeds from this project are a true Limited Edition – only a handful of packs were preserved, and I won’t be remaking this exact combo. These are the ones I’m most excited to run again. Seeds are properly dried, labeled, and stored long-term. Planning a full pheno hunt later this year once space opens up. Stay tuned for germination and grow updates when these beauties hit the medium! #Homebred #Gelato #BlackLebanon #AgentOrange #LimitedEdition 23.12.2025 She got harvested today. For two days I was really struggeling if to harvest or not. But today the decission came fast and I cut her down. What a pitty! Her smell is so wonderful, lemony with a touch of wound plaster. I'm so absolutely looking forward to check, if there are any seeds and what about the smoke? She is so promissing to be a really good christmas herb 🌸

 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

Here our Gush Mintz are starting to give their best. In this diary you will find the plant that we will let grow straight, applying only a few techniques that do not require cutting to preserve its speed characteristics. After taking the first fertilizers the plant is really going very very well and we expect great things, the internodes are going very well and we are almost in pre-flowering. You will find the other one in the next diary worked with Topping / Main Lining / Main Folding Comparison is the salt of experience. We have started the Plagron fertilization program, we are in 100% organic configuration, the soil is recycled Promix + 1/3 fresh soil + 10% Perlite + RQS Mycorrhiza Mix (4gr in mix, 1gr under the small fiber pot). We are administering // 1 ml/l Power Roots - 1 ml/l Pure Zym - 1 ml/l Sugar Royal - 3 ml/l Alga Grow I have doubts about the compatibility of Pure Zym with mycorrhizae. If in doubt, ask the experts, do not mix too much at random. https://plagron.com/en Doubts about the compatibility Pure Zym / Mycorrhizae have been dispelled, they can go well together according to the Plagron experts. If someone tells you that enzymes eat mycorrhizae, which in principle may seem possible, explain to them that it is not true. https://www.royalqueenseeds.it/growing/452-easy-roots-mix-di-micorrhize.html Try this strain, it's a top strain of the last few years very high thc level ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11234-zamnesia-seeds-gush-mintz-automatic.html Brief description of Zamnesia // Gush Mintz Auto is a relaxing hybrid strain that derives from the original Gush Mintz and a high-performance ruderalis specimen. This cross produced a plant with 70% indica and 30% sativa genetics. Her parents have given her a range of interesting traits, including mint and candy flavors and a high THC content of 20%. Smoking these buds provides creative vibes, a sense of euphoria and a pleasant sensation from head to toe. In addition to its enticing flavors and powerful effects, Gush Mintz Auto produces large yields of compact buds in just 9–10 weeks from germination. Gush Mintz Auto is extremely easy to grow, with plants reaching an average height of 70cm indoors and 120cm outdoors, making her ideal for discreet grows or limited spaces both indoors and outdoors. This strain is well suited to LST (Low Stress Training) and performs best in a ScrOG setup (a technique that optimizes light exposure to maximize yields). Punching aromas and deeply relaxing effects As she grows, Gush Mintz Auto's aroma intensifies, releasing sweet and minty notes. This refreshing flavor profile really comes into its own when smoked, offering an inviting combination of minty freshness and sweetness. The effects are deeply relaxing, enveloping the body in a pleasant well-being without being too sedative. Gush Mintz Auto is perfect for those seeking creative inspiration, making writing, painting or music-making sessions smoother and more inspiring. You can find the whole world of growing on Zamnesia and more, just check out the site and you will find "all the best that nature has to offer" in various shapes and colours.

Week 1 has started off well. The seedlings got planted with only one having a long tap. The all day 1 cloudy, drizzly, wet weather allowed for the taps to run without the top of the soil drying out. The outdoors game is real. Grasshoppers are already trying to take these out. Several were killed hanging on the outside of the pot this morning(day 3). I suspected the grasshoppers were nibbling on these but it turned out to be pharaoh ants. I found some slowly dying beside the plants. The Dr. Earth Bug Stop worked. They got sprayed at sundown and apparently the ants attack at night or early morning. They were barely moving and dying at 7.45 am. Pharoah ants are plant terrorists. They can nest up to 100ft away from where they feed and once they find a food source they are determined to eat it. I'm staying organic and trying to stop these guys but here on day 5 they've eaten some more including the seed leaves off of some Peach Crescendo seedlings. It's day 6 and I think I've beat the pharaoh ants. I had to spray liquid seven on the ground in a circle around the plants. Day 6 and no more of the plants were eaten. Overall it was a good week. Everyone survived the rigors of the great outdoors and are digging deep for next week.

Día 1: Germinación en servilleta, coloque la semilla en un tuper redondo con una servilleta doblada a mitad en el fondo, la moje con agua, hasta que estuviera bastante húmeda y coloque las dos semillas, luego puse otra servilleta sin doblar encima y la moje un poco hasta que quedara húmeda, el agua no debe quedar encharcada, cerré el tuper y lo coloque en un lugar con oscuridad total, en el mueble de la tele, use un vaso de vino para el agua. (23:00 hora de germinación). Día 5: Las 2 han estirado, una mas que otra, el talló mide como unos 6cm de alto, esperando a que le salgan las primeras hojitas, todavía siguen con el cascaron pegado. Día 6: Las plantas han estirado el tallo pero le faltan que le salgan las hojas, una tuve que quitarle la semilla manualmente y la otra la tiene pegada, creo que ha sido debido a la falta de luz, la próxima vez colocar las plantas en el patio y no en la ducha a oscuras, también, plantar un poco mas la semilla para que se le caiga la cascara más fácilmente. Pasaron las horas y la cosa seguía igual, pero si es verdad que los cotiledones intentaron abrir, pero tenían una cosita marroncita alrededor, que había dejado tras quitarle la semilla que les impedían abrirse, con un bastoncillo de oídos mojado en agua y con mucha paciencia, poco a poco le he sacado la membrana, esta enseguida se han abierto y han salidos sus dos hojitas, esperamos que mañana hayan crecido y todo haya salido bien. Esto ha pasado por no poner las plantas con luz y por plantar muy pronto las semillas, la cascara no humedeció lo suficiente. Día 9: Una de las plantas ha crecido y ha recibido todo un día de sol, la otra tiene el tallo muy débil y se tambalea, le eche un poco de agua con el vaporizador y se relleno un poco con tierra a ver que pasa, y la he colocado en las planchas, la otra ya se va a quedar fijo fuera bastante firme aunque tiene el tallo largo también, pero esta creciendo bien.

Week 7 for the Apricot from fastbuds 420!!! We gave the last week of xpert nutrients feeding and will continue now with only water, harvest time is soon and at the moment the buds are looking great, nice smell in the tent and the buds are nice and covered in trichomes! The plants are not that big but of course i have quite some plants together in the tent and 7 liter pots so they stayed a little smaller, next time i will do maybe less plants but with the bigger 420 fastbuds airpots!

When the queens return, champions who have brought so much luck, you have to beat the drums, prepare the parade, Calling Brazilian salsa dancers, flag-waving gluttons and fire eaters: Zamnesia BISCUITS is back. You will remember it as the magnificent purple plant that made me take first place in the Power Buds contest and brought me lots and lots of luck. Below we add some information directly from the Zamnesia website: ZAMNESIA SEEDS - BISCUITS: DELICIOUS BISCUITS TO EAT AND SMOKE "Liven up your grows and add the Biscotti strain to your cannabis seed collection. It offers the best qualities of marijuana: potency, productivity and intense flavors. Biscotti is composed of South Florida OG and Gelato genetics and contains 22–25% of THC, enough to make your body vibrate from head to toe. The genetic profile of this strain is 80% indica and 20% sativa, with effects that will make you feel relaxed and creative at the same time. The plants of the strain Biscuit produces dark green leaves and numerous pistils, while the buds tend to be small and compact. Towards the end of the flowering phase, when night temperatures drop a few degrees, you may also notice purple hues." The seeds of this champion were in the same package as the famous one and having seen both phenotypes I think it could be her, fingers crossed if I see purple we celebrate. Purple like the bottles of the legendary feeding Plagron Alga Grow which we are using in the measure of 3ml/l together with the epic scented Light Mix soil which looks like something to eat. The seeds of this champion and many others including the brand new F1 that carry forward the autoflowering concept can be found on Zamnesia https://www.zamnesia.io
