Waiting for them to finish. 1-2 weeks left for most of them.

🍋 Drei Pflanzen. Ein Ziel. Eine Krone. Diese Woche zeigt mein wohl ungewöhnlichstes Outdoor-Projekt seine ganze Schönheit. Anstatt drei Pflanzen unabhängig wachsen zu lassen, habe ich sie von Anfang an so trainiert, dass sie wie eine einzige große Pflanze zusammenarbeiten. Mittlerweile verschwimmen die Grenzen immer mehr. Die drei Wurzelsysteme versorgen gemeinsam eine große, offene Krone voller Triebe und Budsites. Genau das war das Ziel dieses Experiments. Trotz mehrerer Regentage entwickeln sich die Lemon Cherry Cookies fantastisch. Die Pflanzen stehen kräftig da, zeigen sattgrünes Laub und produzieren inzwischen an nahezu jedem Trieb frische weiße Blütenstempel. Die ersten Buds beginnen sichtbar an Volumen zuzulegen und die Struktur verspricht eine hervorragende Lichtverteilung bis tief ins Innere. Besonders gefällt mir, wie unterschiedlich die drei Pflanzen wachsen und sich trotzdem perfekt ergänzen. Eine übernimmt die Hauptcola, während die anderen die Seiten mit unzähligen zusätzlichen Blütenständen füllen. Zusammen entsteht eine natürliche "Superpflanze", die ich so vorher noch nie kultiviert habe. Mit jeder Woche wird dieses Projekt spannender. Wenn das Wetter in den kommenden Wochen mitspielt, könnte diese Kombination aus drei Fast Buds Lemon Cherry Cookies noch für eine echte Überraschung sorgen. Vielen Dank an Fast Buds für diese fantastische Genetik und die Möglichkeit, mit solchen außergewöhnlichen Ideen am Outdoor Contest teilzunehmen. 💚🍋 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🍋 Three plants. One vision. One canopy. This has become one of the most exciting outdoor projects I've ever grown. Instead of letting the three Lemon Cherry Cookies grow individually, I trained them from the beginning to behave like one single plant. Week after week the borders between them disappear a little more, creating one large shared canopy supported by three independent root systems. Even after several rainy days, the ladies remain healthy and vigorous. Rich green foliage, strong branching and fresh white pistils are appearing everywhere. Bud development is accelerating nicely and almost every branch is now stacking flowers. What fascinates me most is how each plant contributes differently to the final structure. One dominates the central cola while the others perfectly fill the sides, creating dozens of additional flowering sites. Together they form one balanced "super plant" that captures light from every angle. This experiment is becoming more exciting every week. If the weather stays on our side, these three Lemon Cherry Cookies could become something truly special before harvest. A huge thank you to Fast Buds for providing such incredible genetics and for making projects like this possible in the Outdoor Contest. 💚🍋🍒

Day 84 This smaller plant shows compact and balanced growth, with several short stems supporting evenly spaced leaves. The leaves are a healthy green color, slightly lighter toward the new growth at the top. The plant appears to be in an early to mid-growth stage, with developing shoots that suggest steady progress. It is potted in a well-aerated fabric container, and the soil looks moist but not overwatered. Overall, the plant seems healthy, stable, and properly maintained.

End of the third week. There are no shortages. Plants are developing well. :)

8/25/23 - Day 73 - Another week down. We did a water change today. The buds are getting fatter and WAAAAAAY smellier. I have had a couple of times now where I lost a battle to the Skunk BOSS. I have had to reach in to move some buds around because they are too close to the light on some bud sites. You can see one of the buds up top, it has some white to it, I think that's due to being too close to the light. But once I move the buds around, I smell EXACTLY like a skunk. The smell is crazy strong. It's taking several full showers and it's still all over my fingers. Gloves will be an ABSOLUTE must when just reach in for a second. 8/28/23 - Day 76 - The buds are starting to grow even more, that the buds are growing buds out of them. That sounds weird but it's the only way to describe it. It looks like Romanesco. The buds are getting more dank, fatter, and more crystals are forming. 8/29/23 - Day 77 -I did some trimming today. I push some of the buds down and really got my arms in there today. All of the buds have gained so much mass to them when I squeeze them, they are really dense. I left a time laps video of me doing some late trimming, I was noticing some of the cannabis leaves were taking some of the light from the buds. 8/31/23 - Day 79 - The trichomes are still see-through and crystal clear. IM looking for a glossy-type look. My guess is still two/three weeks out. If you are looking for this experience, check out https://www.getleaf.co/

And the time for Le Madame Freak Le Chick to come down as arrived!!! This was a wild ride , super emotional and repleted with amazing views, i totally advise everyone to try and grow this wild card , she is a treat and a blessing in our lives As always thank you all for stopping by , for the love and for it all, i fell blessed to have you all with me for one more love journey, and a different one form the rest i did so far <3 <3 <3 Thank you Thank you Thank you , you guys are great and have been amazing , thank you for everything <3<3<3 #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience #dogdoctorofficial #growerslove
 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

It's been a big growth spurt in the last 2 weeks. Check out my VIDEO! The lights have been moved up so they are about 12 inch from the grow. The lower wattage light has not performed aswell as the cr600 1000w. Its big brother has made much thicker, stronger and taller plants. The LST has worked miracles with this plant. So has the Voodoo juice. Will use again!

Day 36. Big week . New light was added and rhythm changed to 12/12. Pot was top uped with 3 handfulls of BioBizz Worm Castings. 1.5 g of Biosys and 1.5 g of Great White were added too. After training she got 2l of water, slowest drinker at the moment. Girl got small defoliation, when you bent main top, one fan leaf is always staying in everyone's way, so he had to go. Think to do big clearing on day 14-18 of flower. Got first wave of LST, main top was lowered, couple leaves and one shoot were repositioned and secured too.. Genererally stem is thick, needed two places to tie, to make any movement, side shoots are developing evenly too, all thanks to : TS1000 by Mars Hydro, great light, did perfect job during veg period, now i added one more for better coverage of long tent. Think in tent 1x1m i could manage to flower all 3 without any ad ons .... Great small light for amazing price. Day 40. Girl develops nice and even, good colour and i am happy with her. Day 42. New training day, first time took so many away, girl lost 10-15 leaves, most were huge, no bottom clearing still. 2.5 liters of 6.3 water went in. Happy Growing !!!

Primera semana de floración de las Blueberry Cheese de Zambeza seeds, como el resto están fantásticas, tienen un buen color, no están para nada enclenques, tienen una buena vegetación y buenos laterales. Al igual de 3 germinaron 3 pero una salió deforme y fue retirada así que de estas 2 aprovecharemos para valorar bien la variedad y hacernos a la idea de cómo es la genética en general. No paso nada niñas haya de lo habitual, todo va sobre ruedas. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Las maximas de temperatura no superan los 26 grados y las mínimas no bajan 19, así que no me puedo quejar. Los niveles de humedad también son los correctos van entre 50%/60%de humedad relativa. Por supuesto el Ph lo estamos dejando alrededor de 6. Hasta aquí es todo poco más la verdad, solo deciros que buenos humos 💨💨💨y nos vemos este finde en SPANNABIS.

I was asked to show the whole plant 🌱 For the first 3 weeks I grew it in a 4 inch pot. When I discovered it was a female and it had really nice purple flowers , I transplanted it to a 1 gallon bag. It was intentionally meant to stay small and not branch out much. This is how I manage breeding large numbers. Structure is still easy to determine this way, I just watch which plants show prominent node growth compared to others. Both this girl and her purple male counterpart had great node growth. I select plants for structure. I watch how much effort each plant puts into its nodes. This plant has excellent structure. I intentionally stunted its growth due to my limited space and because I was dealing with large numbers of plants to find this one! I will continue to grow them small so I can explore all the seeds. I have a lower number of seeds than I had hoped for due to male freakshows being really pathetic pollinators and it being my first time working with male freakshows! I’ll be ready this time. I hope I find this exact massive bud pheno again!

Finally the last week😁🙌. Tuesday will be the last day of flushing. And next friday the harvest day. I hope it is at least how it looks. In the last picture you can see her sisters also very beautiful. Thx Peace and love ✌️

La 8e semaine avec les LSD 25 se déroule à merveille ! Elles ont complètement récupéré de l'excès d'azote et sont pratiquement prêtes. D'ici deux jours, l'une d'entre elles sera prête à être récoltée après 48h d'obscurité. C'est fascinant de voir une plante passer de la graine à la récolte en seulement 56 jours, soit moins de 2 mois. Cette rapidité laisse de la place pour démarrer une nouvelle culture et gagner deux semaines de plus. Quant à l'autre plante, elle bénéficiera de deux semaines supplémentaires pour observer d'éventuelles différences de taille, d'effets ou d'arômes. Pour magnifier les saveurs et les huiles des fleurs, je leur offre désormais des nutriments Final Part de Terra Aquatica. J'ai hâte de voir le résultat de cette attention particulière ! 🌱

Ancora un paio di giorni e sono pronti al taglio run off ec 0.4 ph 6.1

This week I transplanted my ladies to their 3 gallon oxypot. They both look very healthy with a big root mass and strong stalk. Topping in 4 days or until they are settled in proper.

Esta por empezar el engorde final. Ya las flores estan casi formadas. La altura está al límite total. Uno o dos centímetros más y estaría en problemas de verdad. El engorde de muchas flores ya es notorio, pero creo que el uso de un bioestimulante que no es de primera línea, ha reducido el potencial de las plantas. De todos modos hasta no tener el resultado final no puedo afirmar nada. La solución de esta semana fue cargada con más pk booster para ver cómo funciona la linea de greenhouse en esta etapa. Suelo usar pk 13/15 de canna. Pero esta vez puse el que tenía. Seguiré actualizando. Día 31. Se nota mucho el engorde. Las hojas muestran pequeños signos de sobre fertilización, pero nada grave que no haya visto antes. Me suele pasar en esta semana en todos los cultivos en hidroponia. Pero las veces que ko me pasó, no tuve el engorde deseado. Por eso manejo mediciones de PPM superiores 1000. Se empieza a ver cuáles van a ser los cogollos más grandes, pero sigo con incertidumbre sobre cuanto más van a engordar. Estoy bastante conforme al momento. Hoy tuve contacto con plantas macho, pero me cambié toda la ropa antes de acercarme al indoor y le lavé. Además no sé si sumará, pero me rocío en alcohol cada vez que entro a casa, así que espero no tener problemas. Ya voy a ir preparando los esquejes para la próxima siembra. Quizá no logre sacar 10 de las madres que tengo. Pero quizá ponga menos y los haga crecer más tiempo y con bastante LST. Pero será en otro protecto. Por ahora espero que siga el engorde. Día 33. Ya el engorde es un hecho. Por el momento estoy bastante satisfecho. La solución se concentró demasiado así que tuve que agregar agua. Pero más allá de algunos signos de sobre fertilización mínimos y pasajeros en las hojas, la plantas se muestran saludables y firmes. Todavía sigo buscando la posibilidad de agregar overdrive la semana que viene. Todo está por verse. Ya puedo asegurar que va a haber una séptima semana de floración, sino debería empezar el lavado en 2 días, cosa que a la vista, sería muy apresurado. Así que seguiré esperando a ver las flores con los pistilos más secos. Entre tanto los tricomas ya están formados, pero recién van a empezar la maduración en unos días. No saco foto porque el celular no hace buen foco con la lupa, pero ya intentaré mas adelante. Día 35. Cierra la semana con una buena idea de lo que van a ser los cogollos. Según el calendario de la planta, debería empezar el lavado esta semana, ya que sería la última. Pero por la madurez de los tricomas, todavía le faltan entre 10 días y 2 semanas más. Así que se viene otra semana de sobrecarga de PK y voy a aumentar la dosis para aprovechar a medir el nivel de tolerancia de la planta a altos niveles producto. Al ser hidroponia y trabajar con el ambiente bastante controlado, confío en que voy a poder aplicar correctivos a tiempo, si empiezo a notar defasajes bruscos.

Week 3 Veg. These ladies are looking heathy as can be, Very satisfied with the genetics so far!
