These were quite an experience to grow. My second grow ever and they are great. I loved the way they flowered and how they responded to topping. They absolutely loved it. I would 10/10 grow again. Strong genetics and a very strong high.
my experience with these strains has not been one of the best .... in the last few weeks there has been a sharp increase in temperatures making things very difficult ...
very slow growth for coockies considering that in the same tent I had 3 other autoflows that had been ready for a few weeks.
discrete power .... almost light ... lighter flowers inside the buds ...
ABUNDANT HARVESTS FOR ALL OF YOU ... FRIENDS
PEAKYPLANTERS GREETS YOU
Not a ton to report besides a small trim to remove some low nodes and leaves. Preflower stretch in full effect. Im using the strive part b too just a very small amount i didnt feel like listing it. Its the first dose of strive the autos got they seem to be handling it well and doing well in general happy Thanksgiving community! I'm thanful for yall and all the other people and blessings in my life
🔘Week 4 Over for Lady North
🔘 Her growth was steady and constant so I went in for a full defoliation LST
🔘The goal is to level up the canopy to the same level so the tops all get the same light priority
🔘 I introduced nutes to the feed schedule around week 3’s end going into week 4
🔘Let’s see how she handle this
One week more. The two ladies have developed quite well in the last week and I have now defoliated them again. I think the yellow leaf tips are due to low humidity. The morello cherries auto in the soil also had a bit of bad news for me. There was a small bag of bananas, which I have removed for now and will continue to observe whether new ones appear. With a new cultivar, I can well imagine that it will be even more stable.
Otherwise, the morello Cherrie flowers very fast and l'm a little surprised at the low stretch.
Germination was pretty good, we lost one of each strain. We soaked for 24hr then wet paper towel for 24hr then in a tray and dome for 2 days under a sun blaster 50 watt light for the first week or so
So.. the flush begins for DD#1 and #2 checking trich’s and these to ladies are showing about 70% clear to 30% cloudy may finish in week nine. DD#3 still in bloom throwing tons of white hairs and purple flowers 100% clear trichs so she’s gonna get another feeding. DD# 4 is the showcase cause not only did she start out slow but she’s the only 1 of the 4 that’s started purple flowers and and is also purple leafed.
I’ll continue to post some picture tonight wanted to get this up as I am flushing and pulling them out of the tent to do so. Also continue to add photo every 2 days.
Updated 4/30 day 58 posted video and some new photos
Day 60 really started to look at trich’s since plants are definitely getting close.
DD#1 looks to be my heaviest producer trich’s are 60/40 no amber yet
DD#2 80/20 no amber
DD#3 90/10 no amber but it must be a mutation or something in the genetics cause it’s no longer thickening up its foxtailing all over so she still got time and we’ll see
DD#4 is looking good and has a few weeks before I’ll start checking trich’s on her, pistols popping white all over the place.
So the budgrowth over the week has been insane!
All the girls are stacking like crazy!
Wedding Glue
Now in flush and will.be the first to come down around day 72.
Gorilla Cookies
Smelling and looking amazing. However since shes hidden in the back it took me a while to discover a calcium deficiency on her. I have flushed her with a light calmag feed and gave her a light feeding the next day. Seems like it has stopped spreading. This is usually what i do to see what is wrong as its usually a salt build up. If theres no progress a simple measurement and adjustment usually does the trick.
Mimosa Cake
Stacking beautifully and i can already see shes gonna be a frosty one! And a top yielder!
Forgotten Cookies pheno1.
Ive had this one twice before. She has a really sweet terpene profile and she can turn into a beast given the right circumstances.
Forgotten Cookies pheno2.
Ive had this pheno before in the organic run. Extremely frosty like her sibling smelling really pungent and sweet. Smell is easily recognizable
Solero
Turning out to be a monster with all her budsites covered in bud. I can see her buds have swollen up everyday i open the tent. She smells really fruity with a hint of mojitos
Strawberry Gelato
Straight gelato terps coming of this one! As you can see shes really focussing on swelling up!
Sorry playing catch up again but everything's rolling along smoothly so far. Slowly adjusting pk forward and watching for negative side effects and deficiencies. The girls are starting to smell delicious .. ecsuse me miss ur terps are showin' XD Microbes are real my friends lol
Overall very happy with the grow. Got 24oz of very dense nugs! I also managed to get 2oz of less dense but still pretty bag-appeal, and a shit ton of trim which I made into tidy ass brownies, which have made typing this incredibly difficult😂! Both of these strains are definitely bed time strains. The Critical kush is has the usual overwhelming kush taste, however the peyote(purple nugs) have a very sweet / flowery taste and smell. Disappointed I only done 1 peyote but more than happy with the critical. Would definitely grow both these strains again!
Day 88. Amazing girl. Trim jail was easy, but she needed few more weeks to properly finish even so high lolipoped colas. Sugar leave trim left for butter and freezed , the rest of foliage and trim goes for bubble hash.
Day 98. 92 g went for curing
Happy Growing !

Pistils pistils pistils
5/8 these plants are fucking exploding! Super exciting to see them like this. Pistils everywhere and they’re just STACKING! don’t even see budlets yet, just pistils. The structure of these plants is beautiful. They handle training fairly well. I topped one and super cropped it and did a bit of lst. I was feeling impatient so I decided to see what happened if I pushed the one a little harder and left the other to grow naturally.
week intel:
its time to harvest some of plants the ones that is mature enough. indica dominant plants will done first always so we should harvest them first
because my base nutrients and one of boosters was salt based, i'll do flushing this week to get some relieve to plants in the last days
stresses :
flushing
Drought stress via watering only one time with flushing this week
feeding:
day 1 : i flushed them with Advanced Nutrients Flawless finish and adjusted ph
day 3 : no more feeding from now on
day 5 : no more feeding from now on
guide of the week :
i harvest in 2 parts : first i harvest top of the branches and will let the lower buds to ripe another week then ill harvest the second wave.
indica dominant plants will get done 1 or 2 weeks sooner than sativa dominant plants that will often takes more than 8 weeks so be aware to harvest them sooner.
my dry and cure style is this:
3 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 3 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month.
im happy as hell with this harvest :D.
Day 70:
Watered the plants 0.5L without nuts, 4L total, 170 ppm, 360 us/cm, PH 6.5
Flushing from today
Day 73:
Watered the plants 1L without nuts, 8L total
Day 75:
Watered the plants 1L without nuts, 8L total
Pflanzen jetzt in der ersten Blüten woche bzw. In der vorblüte wachsen sehr schnell und gut bin sehr zufrieden. Auf dem Balkon ist es einfach anzubauen.
