Little clean up in the tent things got out of control. By removing lowers and inners that would possibly not produce much will definitely let those tops stack up nicely. These buds will without any doubts be rock solid, I can tell by how sturdy those stems already are. I transplanted this week was a nightmare root mass caught everywhere in the 3 Gal, now into 5’s. 👍✌️

Day 45 for this beautiful lady. She’s very impressive. I’m happy with how she’s turning out. Fast buds really knocked this one out of the park. Can’t wait to watch her swell and bulk. She isn’t too stinky yet can’t wait to find out what she will smell like. She’s big and bushy which is awesome because she was just a little baby I wasn’t sure about her potential but boy oh boy she’s grown up.

This past week the ladies have recovered well , it will be my last week of veg and then I will be flipping the lights . So far so good on the topping of obi#1 shes recovering well just giving her abit more time before we go ahead and change the lights . I'd like to thank every one for stopping by the diary and showing me their love and support ! Remember to check my diaries daily for updates ! Started flowering on Saturday marked off as Day#1F -Happy Growing!

GMO Cookies Served with Extra Curiosity ?🍪 Drying & Trimming Report | Garlic, Gold & Preservation And once again… yes 😄 We are dividing the reports. At this point it almost became tradition. But honestly, there is simply no realistic way to fit: * harvest, * drying, * trimming, * curing, * smoke review, * fresh frozen, * washing, * strain review, * extraction plans, * terpene analysis, * and all the small details we love documenting… into one single update without turning everything into chaos. So first of all: thank you for the patience. Everything from seed until harvest was already documented in the previous reports, but for the people arriving only now, let’s quickly recap how we got here. This GMO Cookies run was grown under a 12/12 from seed cycle using the F.O.G. LED setup, with environmental management focused on healthy plant development, airflow, structure, and resin production. Throughout flower the girls received selective defoliation, LST, continuous observation, and careful feeding while expressing one of the loudest terpene profiles we have had in the room in a while. And now? Now the plants have moved beyond harvest and entered one of the most important phases of all: preservation. Because growing beautiful flowers means very little if drying and trimming are rushed afterward. So this report belongs to: * drying, * trimming, * handling, * preserving terpenes, * collecting resin, * and slowly preparing the medicine for cure. The branches that were selected for drying spent approximately: * 10 days drying, * around 60% humidity, * temperatures between 18–20°C, with the first couple of days running slightly drier in order to help remove excess surface moisture before stabilizing the environment more carefully. And honestly? The aromas coming from these flowers during drying were absolutely ridiculous. Now, to be completely honest and transparent: these were not the densest flowers from the tent. Visually they actually looked denser while still wet than they ended up feeling after drying. But what they lacked slightly in density… they completely compensated for in aroma, terpene expression, flavor potential, resin behavior, and overall personality. And honestly, that trade-off is something many growers happily accept. Because this GMO profile is LOUD. Like… walk-into-a-kitchen loud. Real GMO lovers will understand this instantly. Every trimming session felt like sitting next to a chef smashing fresh garlic cloves directly beside us. Savory. Greasy. Funky. Sharp. Warm. Almost oily-smelling. And hidden underneath all that madness: sweetness, cookie notes, earthiness, and weird creamy undertones slowly revealing themselves as the flowers cured further. This is not a shy cultivar. Not even close. Once the drying process finished, it was finally time to trim. So: gloves on. Trim station ready. Trim bin prepared. Scissors cleaned. Glass jars nearby. Grove Bags prepared. And of course… little self-medication beforehand 😄 Because trimming sessions and cannabis culture somehow always belonged together naturally. The branches were broken down carefully by hand, one by one, and every flower was trimmed individually with patience instead of speed. As always, we used pointed curved trimming scissors. And honestly, they are fantastic for this type of flower structure. Especially with fluffier or more open flowers, curved pointed scissors allow you to: * enter tighter spaces, * remove excess leaf material precisely, * preserve flower structure, * avoid crushing calyxes, * and maintain a more natural-looking final product. Straight scissors work perfectly fine too of course, but for this type of trimming, curved points genuinely feel more comfortable and surgical. And with GMO? You quickly realize precision matters. Because these flowers become sticky almost immediately. The scissors start collecting resin. The gloves become greasy. Finger hash starts forming naturally. And suddenly trimming stops being just “work” and starts becoming part of the experience itself. The first dried branches gave us: 137.1 grams. After trimming and weighing, the flowers were carefully transferred into Grove Bags, with smaller amounts also resting inside glass jars for comparison and monitoring during cure. Then we moved onto the flowers dried on the drying rack. Again: not the densest plant from the tent. And honestly, we believe temperatures played a role there. This cultivar appeared slightly more sensitive to higher temperatures than some of the others around her. Our personal feeling is that she continued pulling significant water during flower development, which likely contributed to the final structure remaining slightly more open once dry weight settled. But despite that? The quality remained absolutely beautiful. Sometimes growers become overly obsessed with density alone. But density is not everything. Aromatic expression, resin quality, effect, smoothness, flavor, and terpene complexity matter just as much — sometimes even more. And this GMO absolutely shines there. The second drying batch landed at: 224.2 grams. Again carefully bagged for preservation. And speaking of preservation: we decided to use Grove Bags for most of the flower storage. Why? Because preserving terpenes matters deeply to us. Especially with a cultivar this expressive. The idea behind Grove Bags is maintaining stable curing conditions while reducing the constant need to burp jars manually. They help regulate humidity exchange while still allowing the flowers to continue stabilizing naturally over time. Of course, glass jars still remain legendary and we still use them too. Honestly? Both methods have their place. And later during cure and smoke review, we will probably compare the differences more deeply. But for now, the priority is simple: protect the terpenes. Protect the medicine. Protect the work. Now let’s talk about something we personally love a lot: the “gold.” Or what many people simply call: kief. During trimming, tiny trichome heads naturally separated and fell through the trim bin screen. And honestly… watching that happen never gets old. At one point we jokingly started “playing the drums” Moroccan style across the trim bin while working, moving material gently across the screen and collecting the resin heads gathering underneath. And the result? Beautiful golden powder. Tiny greasy trichome heads. Pure aromatic dust from the plant itself. Eventually we pressed part of it together gently using finger warmth and pressure, creating a tiny mini temple ball. Small. Dark. Sticky. Greasy. Beautiful. The type of resin that already tells you: “This plant is going to wash beautifully later.” And yes… that curiosity is still alive and stronger than ever. Because despite everything already documented here, we still have: more than 700 grams of fresh frozen flower material waiting patiently inside the freezer. That future report is still coming. And honestly? We are incredibly excited for it. But there is no rush. That material is preserved safely and waiting for the right moment to become: * ice water hash, * solventless resin, * or whatever expression this GMO decides to offer us later. For now, this chapter belongs to drying, trimming, preservation, and preparation. Before ending this report, one more important thing: cleaning. Once trimming was finished and the room slowly emptied, it was time to clean everything thoroughly and prepare the environment for future runs. And honestly, this part matters far more than many growers realize. Between runs we strongly believe in: * deep cleaning, * sanitizing surfaces, * cleaning fans, * sterilizing tools, * removing plant residue, * using UVC if available, * using ionizers or environmental tools carefully, * and resetting the room properly. Because prevention is always easier than fighting problems later. A clean room protects future harvests. And after a run like this? The room deserved a respectful reset. Now next week? Next week we finally move deeper into: * curing, * smoke review, * terpene evolution, * flavor, * effects, * smoothness, * strain review, * and our true thoughts about GMO Cookies after spending months with this cultivar from seed until cure. And honestly… we cannot wait. Before ending, as always: Thank you. To Zamnesia. To F.O.G. To Plagron. To Lumiflora. To Grove Bags. To the platform. To the community. To the growers sharing knowledge. To the hash makers. To the flower lovers. To the silent supporters. To the curious people following this strange garlic-filled adventure 😄 To everyone spending even a few moments here with us. This GMO Cookies run truly was served with extra curiosity. And honestly? That curiosity still hasn’t disappeared yet. 🌱 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

The temperatures, humidity, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil. Day 1 we had rain the previous night and intermittently throughout the day. Temperatures were in the low 70's with cloudy skies. Day 2 we had clear skies and sunshine. Temperatures were in the low 80's. Day 3 we had partly cloudy skies, low humidity, and temps in the lower 80's. I watered about 1.5 gallons from the hose. Day 4 we had lite showers in the morning, partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the low 80's the remainder of the day. Day 5 we had showers in the early morning until afternoon. Then it was mostly sunny with high temperature around 79. Day 6 we had lots of sunshine and temperatures in the low 80's. I watered about 2 gallons from the water hose today. I added dirt to these pots now that the plants can handle the excess rain. Day 7 it was mostly sunny with temperatures reaching 82°. I watered about 2 gallons per pot from the water hose. This week was a success. One of the plants doubled in height to 20" the other two were 17 and 18 " . I started adding soil with premixed nutrients. It seems the worst of the rain is over and these girls can handle the moisture. I added stakes on day 7 and will get these tied down to open up the centers.

Hi there my beloved stoners who take all the pain about reading these text walls, i'm taking this week as nutrient schema week because, as i changed to a new substrate i have to deal with new shit as i'm trying to bond over with these new medium. Organic Life Light mix is a local product that can be found mostly in Chile and some parts of South America as well. There is no much review about it but most insights nevertheless if the brand can be considered on the u get what you pay acording to its price , is more than that as it's a bit more complex to grow on a peat moss & coco coir mix and noticed it as im having some nutrient issues (detailed below ) as well watering is different , dear readers i have experienced it as well ! . I can make accountable the substrate on these ones 4 days evolved in a good and a bad way at the same time , as it's seems to be really light & airy gives the advantage of seeing some more faster growth , but at the same time has quite low nutritional value as older leaves already becoming yellow, yet discarding a nutrient block due excess because no edges are burnt , also considering the shit i used previous week is pretty organic and i stay on the lower doses. This gave me a bit more of dependency and record on the food i give to my babies, the reason that spams this post itself, if this CalMag helped to correct the issues depicted on photos as exampled. Hope this doesn't evolve to the worst hahahahahaha. (If anything shitty happens or something cryptic goes beyond my understanding i will post it , yet the update on 28/08 shows everything went better than expected! 😇). I discard tap water quality as secondary cause on the issue (water from a faucet ) as if that shit were causing glitches, it could have happened on the start of my previous grow too! And the substrate was different too, on the bright side now i have to think that its easier to correct carencies more than excess as well. On the space aspect also sorted the light bulbs to be closer to the plants now that are a bit more matured rather than seedlings, it's a 4000k & 6500k dominant mix according to what is better to vegging itself and changed it to 3 different modules to play with height if have some stretching differences between the killer kush f1 siblings. BIG GAS LEAKS CRUSTY MOTHERFUCKERS AND XUPENLA MIANDO CTM !!!

The lsd-25 on the right is starting to taking on a gassy smell and the left one is still smelling more floral. The big bud in the back is doing great but I think the buds are going to be more fluffy than dense unless it starts packing these next 20ish days. The cherry cola is looking good still very behind the other 3 but I think I got her under control and good for now.

Was a pretty smooth week for most the girls. Showing some steady growth. I topped all of the plants around day 12 other than the slurricane 7. Ph got a little high since the nutrient level was too low to buffer it at the beginning of the week. Slurricane 7 and sugar cane are the ones that took some damage. I think they will be ok though. I upped the nutrients to 1/4 tsp per gallon and the ph has held stable since then. Should be able to start some training the middle of next week and looks like we might be going 2 more weeks on veg before flipping them to flower depending on how this upcoming week goes. Guess you will have to show up next week to find out...

Sooo I added a scrog net a few days ago to get the branches more outward beacuse they were growing way to bushy. Seems to be a good solution! Did a nother update for this week because of the trichome beauty that they have. They both smell really really fruity and somewhat gassy, if you ever grew a Cherry Cola from FastBuds and you loved the smell then this strain is specially for you. The smell reminds me so hard of the Cherry Cola and I fcking love it

Top dressed the soil day 19 with organic fertilizer. The blue strains are growing fast and bigger than the others. The two LSD’s look completely different, one looks healthy and growing strong. The other, has very light leaves. Im not sure why. it’s in the same soil with the same nutrients and gets the same water as the other plants. Any thoughts? Other than that, things are going well! The Ladies are growing rapidly. Should be ready to LST and tie them down in a few days.

Just find out from the 9 plants there are 2 Hermans.

The plants are looking really healthy, I've been defoliating here and there to get the light to penetrate to the lower leaves and branches. They have started to bush out from topping them last week. I started using Mammoth P Microbes halfway through last week. They seem to have grown a little quicker since adding them. The plants are still being fed 4 times a day at 1 minute each feeding. No signs yet of which is female and male, I am planning on pulling all the males once they show signs.

3/23: I flushed the shortie for the first time today with about 10 gallons of warm filtered water and Sledgehammer. I'll flush her again in several days, let her dry back out a bit and stick her in the dark for a day before I sneak up on her with my lopping shears. I had let them go totally dry for a few days, so I fed the taller one with about 3/4 gallon including terpinator, signal, sweet & sticky, cal-mag, armor si, cha ching, tiger bloom, big bloom, and humic acid. This was her last feeding with any nutes, but I'll probably water her with some sweet & sticky and terpinator once more before flushing. 3/27: She wasn't completely dry yet, but I went ahead and flushed the shortie again today with about 8 gallons of warm filtered water. That's it for her....I'll give her another few days in the 'sun', and I've put a 12w MiracleLED blue bulb about 4 inches away from her, along with a 22w blue panel above her and the other shortie to make her think it's wintertime and maybe get her to put on a thicker coat of trichomes before she finishes. I gave the bigger one about 3/4 gallon including sweet & sticky, signal, terpinator, cal-mag and a little bit of cha ching. She'll get flushed for the first time once she's dry. This strain smells amazing!

Hi growers! The kushes are buding nice!Bubba kush started to coloring a litle.Dutch kush have such a nice smell.Loove the smell that is coming from the tent! Stay green!🌱

Week 4 for the blueberry Pie. She's putting on weight now and the bud structure looks great. I can't tell this is gonna be a fat plant come harvest time. Very healthy looking with really solid branches. The terpenes are starting to come in strong. The weather in my area hasn't been the greatest with high heat and humidity almost every day of summer so far but we are making it work. Got the dehumidifier running on overtime. Half way to chop.

420 Fastbuds Week 1 Gorilla Punch Auto What up what up grow family. Super excited to start yet another amazing strain by 420 fastbuds. Built a water drip system for this grow to see how it'll work and so far makes life alot easier for sure. The germination method I use is putting the seeds into a glass of water for 48hrs then straight into the soil. Within 48-72 hrs you should see sprouts breaking through the soil. All in all Happy Growing.

Week 8 Flower This was the last week in The Fox's Den for this stunning Pineapple Kush girl by Royal Queen Seeds. She smells dank asf and still super gassy (which is something I absolutely love ⛽) she was flushed all week with 6pH water for each flushing (I use tap water between 150-190ppm). She was taken down on Day 56 to finish off a great 8 weeks. Her fan leaves were taken off and she was hung in a box, where she'll dry as slowly as possible for between 6-10 days. The slower the dry the better the buds will taste/smell. Once she's dry enough she'll be trimmed and jarred for curing. Thank you to everyone who's been following and showing support, it's always greatly appreciated ✌️ I'll be uploading the harvest update a soon as possible so keep an eye out! Happy growing! 🐺
