 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 really hard to place the smell of this lady. It's not like anything I've ever smelled before. She is fattening up well and is nice and sugary. Not much else to report other than I can't wait to smoke this strain.

The buds on this girl were quite small but they came out veeery dense. The smell wasn't anything special as she was growing but now that she's cured, it smells like a really nice strong indica with hints of citrus. But she was incredibly easy to grow and so quick to recover! Couldn't be happier with the final outcome and really happy about growing this strain!

High GD community, Week 6, Wonder pie doing fine. She keeps her tempo steady, not really fast, but she keeps developing. Some of the side branches starting to take form and first lining is a fact. Ive removed 9 leafs, so te center gets more open for the small branches trying to come up. I think i should cut the internodes that are up and down, but i only cutted the one underneath. If anyone is convinced its better to get rid of the upperone 2, please comment. I do thinl it might cause problems in a few weeks, bcs it will grow up instead of out to the sides, so, hormone regulation will change, slow down the outgrowing buds and extra pump up these internodes. Enough rambling about that, lets talk about the plant intirely, bit by bit she starts to look like something i have in mind. 💦👨‍🔬 Just spraying ph 6.2water and 1 feeding this week. 3 waterings this week, 1 with nuts. Thats it for this week boys👨‍🌾 and girls👩‍🌾, Grow safe buds and feel free to check out my other ladies doing fine, 🌿🌿🌿 🙏🌿🌿🌿🙏

Here we are with some new photos and videos. We're halfway through Week 5. As you can see, I went a bit overboard with the PK. All the leaf tips are burned. Whoops. Next watering will be a bit heavier, and I'll only give a half dose of Bioflores plus a full dose of Cannazym. Then I'll start with the Rokzbastic (Bloombastic?)* hoping it doesn't throw things too far off balance. I think by the end of this week I'll also stop the Bud Factor X – from what I understand, it could leave metallic residues in the smoke later, which would really bother me xD. I admit I've given Bloombastic with every watering except one, always at low doses, but I should have been more careful and pushed less, or at least alternated it more. Temperatures have risen slightly with peaks of 28°C (82°F), though most of the time it stays between 26.9°C and 27.5°C (80.4°F - 81.5°F) (lights on). With lights off, I can't get below 26°C (78.8°F) (except for rare dips to 25.8°C / 78.4°F). Right now the ventilation is maxing out, with humidity sitting between 55-60%. It’s on the high side, but this is the best I can do. The plants seem resilient though, even in these less-than-ideal conditions, and seeing them outside the tent with the lights off gives me hope. Any advice is always welcome! Everything I’m putting into practice comes from others' experiences, carefully followed, and info from friends both online and offline. Stay tuned! Peace.

Well it's safe to say the foop will work with legit strong good bacteria! But the focus has to be on the root health when it comes to how much food you can add and still maintain healthy roots. But the game changer for me has been switching to a air stone, 1st and for most. The recirculation pump suggested by foop when running foop in dwc ran the solution temps into the high 70's around 77°F and anything over 75°F has been where root rot sets in for me. Even switched to way smaller recirculation pump with same results. So switching to running a air stone was big! But also found that running one Vivosun 317GPH Air Pump 15W split to 4 plants was not enough air for the roots to be happy in the foop plants. So I moved to a 2nd air pump, same size per tent. So now it's only split to 2 plants on the foop plants. And that made a big difference! But found after a few weeks that I had to bleed a slight amount of air off because there soo much extra air the humidity was sky rocketing in the tent to high 80%. So there's a sweet spot where they get extra air but not soo much that the humidity is affected. But the 2nd most beneficial thing I've done is start running Orca. It has made such a huge difference. I think I need to go up with how much I'm using or find something that works even better if possible. But the sweet spot now is 8 to 9ml total of each foop veg/bloom 1,2 and sweener. When I go to 12ml with foop 1,2 the roots take a noticeable hit. So idk how I would go to the recommended 20 to 50ml per gallon as suggested on the foop grow chart. I tried going to 10ml foop 1,2 on this one but the roots didn't like it and it shows they have never turned back to a blonde or white color again Currently running around 6 to 10ml orca total per feeding. And adding 2 to 4ml when I add foop 1,2 mid week and got happy roots! Also the Seaweed extract has made a difference in the smell the plant puts off. Last few grows have been really muted with smells and this grow I actually get hit in the face when entering grow room. So has made a difference forsure!! I'm soo excited!! Currently has issues getting the humidity below 55% in the grow room. I was running 6 damprids 1 on intake(outside tent) to tent, one on inside of tent(at inlet) and 1 on exhaust(outside tent) for 2x4 tent and 2 hanging at 4x4 tent exhaust and one hanging by ac unit. That brought it down like 5% over all but now I'm running 12 damprids to try and get the room down humidity in the mid 40's. We will see. The house runs a swamp cooler and that basically makes the whole house pressurized. So even tho I sealed the grooe room door and the window with ac the best i can. it's a uphill battle! Once swamp cooler comes on the humidity in grow room climbs like 10%. So here's to hoping🤞🤞🤞🤞 6/25 added 2L 6/26 added 1.5L, 10ml Seaweed extract, 4ml orca, 4ml foop bloom 1&2, 4ml foop sweener, 3ml cal mag 6/28 added 2L 6/29 added 1.5L 6/30 added 1L, 20ml Seaweed extract 7/1 refreshed, gave 20ml hydroguard, 15ml orca, 25ml Seaweed extract, 9ml foop bloom 1&2. 10ml foop sweener, 6.5ml cal mag Records kept here: https://1drv.ms/x/c/fa218bbdbbfbd064/EelXI2vd0VdDoZBL4JvZ6xMB7lSyddsPGq8FdBGttRAjgg?e=rY8meL 👋👋👋 Hello, Thanks for checking out my grow!!

Hi Growmies, She continues to develop nicely. The rootball continues to expand and nested itself right above the airstone. She is very thirsty, finishing a good 10l over the course of 5 days. I have opened my last atami rockzbastic tester and added a ml per liter. Seems like the buds start stretching around the colas now, so pretty much half time +- a week.

The flushing phase is on, time to get rid of the rest of those nutrients that got locked up in the plant system, this step will affect almost 60% of the end result bud quality and taste along side with curing and drying properly the buds. The plant will remains in darkness until i harvest to slow the degradation of thc to cbn and to squeeze the most out of thoses resin glands that activates the most at night . Beside a bit of foxtailing due to the heat differences caused by the addition of 3 cfl buld, the buds are looking great

5/28 I think she's about to go off. 6/2 she's been droopy leafed for a bit. I backed off on nutrients for over a week. I thought it may have been overwatering but at the same time I don't want to kill off the microbe life in my soil right now by letting it get overly dry. I'm more experienced with coco and the dry back is more aggressive and intense and with soil it's a little different and slower but it als9 cant dry back as

Stiamo ancora raccogliendo,ancora nessuna pianta é morta,sto rimuovendo piano piano le cime più mature,così facendo evitiamo le cime popcorn e diamo il tempo alla pianta di riempire anche le cime inferiori,per adesso levando quella fumata e venduta siamo all'incirca sui 780g,però aspettiamo anche il nuovo stendino,alla fine del raccolto dovremmo arrivare a quasi 2 Kili con 7 piante e 6 vasi,con una media di 333g a pianta,ho pubblicato tutto quello che potevo,ogni procedimento,spero vi piaccia e mi seguiate

🌿 Woche 3 Eine weiter recht heiße Woche.🌡️🔥 🌱 Wachstum Beide Damen haben einen schönen Wuchs und Grünton. Die anfängliche leichte Verbrennung hat sich perfekt rausgewachsen. Nun sollte die Livingsoil den Job super ausführen können. Noch sehen sie beide auch sehr identisch aus. 💧 Only Water Ich habe mich dazu entschieden, meiner Livingsoil ein wenig mehr unter die Arme zu greifen. Ein Grow-Kollege hat mir verschiedene Dinge empfohlen, die man machen kann. Ich habe mich dann für 2 Mittel entschieden, die mein Only Water Experiment nicht aushebeln: 🔹 Effektive Mikroorganismen von Multikraft 🔹 Mycorrizae von R&R Beide Mittel gelten nicht als Dünger für die Pflanze, sondern als Booster für den Boden. Dementsprechend kann man diesen Run immer noch als Only Water bezeichnen 💦✅ 📟 Blumat und Gießen Ich freunde mich immer mehr mit dem Blumat Digital an. Ich wüsste nicht, wie ich ohne ihn durch den Mulch den Gießzeitpunkt ermitteln sollte. Rumwühlen oder den Topf heben ist leider keine Option ❌. Deswegen bin ich wirklich froh, dass es ihn gibt 🙏. Ich gieße weiter nach Fahrplan: 🕒 Alle paar Tage bei 110 mbar 🚿 2 l Wasser Diesmal habe ich etwas EM Bodenbuster mitgemischt. Damit hab ich dann den Boden mit zusätzlichen Mycorrizae geimpft. ☀️ Wetter Wenn man bedenkt, dass es tage­lang locker über 33 °C heiß war 🌡️🔥 und ich dazu keinerlei RLF-Unterstützung hatte 💨❌ – sehen beide Damen top aus ✅. Manchmal denke ich: „Oh Gott, geht das gut?“ 😅 Aber ich lass es drauf ankommen. Und bis jetzt läuft alles nach Plan 🛸✨ 🎶 The Grow must go on! 🌱🔥

Day 29 of flower and I couldn’t be happier with the way she’s coming together. The real magic should start this week and she should start to fill out. Everything is stating to connect and I pulled some branches apart to make sure there was ample light and air to every part. So far my favorite auto to date.
