This was another fun week. I did some defoliation to open up all the bud sites. That took a little longer than I was expecting. This is the largest plant I have ever grown, and I'm learning there are some differences in growing a big girl, the first being she takes longer to defoliate. The second is the amount of water she drinks. I'm watering her a full gallon ever other day and she is taking it all.

Day 77. Maybe a bit early, but no space and one Smoothie went for a date with bud rot ;))) didn't want to loose that nice top. Very frosty, nice gassy smell surrounded by fruits. Day 82. Second girl is down. Both small as you see, but with few branches will produce seed packaging cover type plant. Maybe second got some purple fade ... First was very nice by structure. Day 85. First went to jar. How lovely it sparkles and smells !!! Solid strain, even being so small by structure. Day 89. Second is in jars too ! Happy Growing !!!

Week 2 and the easy plugs delivered. Roots pushed through on all cuts — flipped the tray and it was clear across the board. The fastest ones already moved into 1L pots during the week. Growth looks uniform and healthy, no casualties so far. Star Pebbles Ɨ Orange Zkittlez were the slowest of the bunch — while everything else rooted within 10 days, the SPOZ needed 14–16. Will pull my 4 for the next run from those this week before they fall too far behind. Running Aqua Vega at 1 ml/L with CalMag Agent at 0.8 ml/L, pH 6.2, EC 0.8. 26°C day, 23°C night, 70% humidity, 20 hours light. Next update on Sunday.

Hi guys, thanks for stopping by here.. Smell awesome for this two leady, not ultra resinous but very very sticky... I love the structure of the budsšŸ˜.. Now they are at day 54 from 12/12.. Only water.. The bigger one I think it's fine for harwest in the next five/seven days.. The "smallest" one in seven or more few days.. Can't wait to dry cure and smell the aroma come out from the jair ..and also vape too and get super stonešŸ˜ŽšŸ¤£.. See you next week... Harwest day.. Bye āœŒļø I hope you can see all three video because I can always see only the first one..

Only one gelato remaining people. This one is really taking its time and the lack of orange pistils does have me really worried. All bottom vegetation is turning yellow and dying out and buds look like they still have a bit to go. I'm hoping its not a did.

Week 15 - August 09, 2020 -Day 99 08/09: We’re almost at the end. I gave Aaliyah her first watering with plain water. I’m planning on chopping the top colas off of her in a week. Hopefully I can get something out of the lower growth that isn’t getting any light right now. Alexis is coming down in two and Annie in three. Annie has some damage due to the light, but she is hanging in there. Alexis looks the healthiest overall. She stayed pretty compact, so light is still able to reach her lower parts. I think I could’ve had a better grow overall if I would have stuck with using only 3-gallon pots. [General notes: The nutrients on the diary are based off what I’m giving Aaliyah. Alexis is on the previous weeks schedule and Annie in the schedule from two weeks ago.]

Beginning of week.. I did remove a few fan leaves.. I also only adjusted the very top branches.. The very lowest branches are completely untied and have only had some HST but recovered a little too well.. The stems have straightened back out and are all knotted up.. Damnit.. Same issue I faced in my last grow.. I should just stop being lazy and tie all the damn branches down.. But all this week I will be adding more training.. Kinda slowly.. Not for any reason, other than it takes a while and I need to make time for it all lol.. It should get done in the next 2 - 3 days and she should be ready for her next photoshoot (mid week pics)! Went ahead and added in some FloraBloom.. She wasn't getting much P.. So I pee'd on her LMAO im just kidding.. Just adding a half dose of FloraBloom to take care of the P issue.. I need to start watering/feeding daily.. She seems to be drinking quite a bit more.. Which would make perfect sense duh! Lol Next day... Went ahead and adjusted 4 branches.. Tying down the bottom 2 that were left untied.. Now she is all tied down lol... Looking flat as fuck! I love it! One branch was beginning to crack.. So I eased up on it.. But still bent the very top of that stem down a little.. So the lower branches should still be able to catch up.. She is going to be a seriously gorgeous, thick bush lol Mid week.. Doing good.. Still just watering, feeding, watering, feeding, etc.. What I do is I feed one day, wait 2 days and water, then feed again the next day.. Then wait 2 days and water.. The point of doing that is so she has more days of nutes than with less nutes.. Idk.. Just my take on it.. She is becoming such a gorgeous bush! End of week.. She is getting so bushy. Going to have to flip to 12/12 tomorrow and also put her in a 2'Ɨ2'Ɨ5 CoolGrows tent.. This is not what I wanted to do.. But this is a last minute decision.. Hope it works out still

These plants are getting so frosty, and so smelly! The Terps are the most unique blend of Terps I have ever smelled, and I cannot say I expected it! Terps reek into the whole room, of strong Cherry Berry Wine, a deep ripe/nearly rotten cherry funk, with a background of that Superboof Orange Rinds, and Blue Moon IPA/Hop Terps, with a very slight hints of gassiness but that might be just the orange funk from the Superboof. Some buds are light and airy, not quite like a super silver haze or a NYC Piff kinda light and airy. It's a nice middle ground and looks as if it's gonna wash well! Some buds specifically the ones getting the strongest light, are a bit more dense. Beautiful strcuture,.spear shaped nugs with wacky formations, almost cactus like ! Haven't seen any foxtailing but almost seems as if it might as some point! Color is bright green! Which it's still a bit too early to tell if it's gonna turn purple but according to pictures that the breeder has posted of 2 diff phenos , one being completely purple and the other with a greyish green with spots of purple color! So I look forward to seeing how it looks! This Pheno has a completely different structure then the 2 Homegrown Genetics posted! Super stable for having such different genetic variation !

So as you can see, we have upgraded into a 5 gallon wide fabric pot and I'm going to give her another couple weeks to fill into her new home... i broke a couple of branches, definitely gave her silica to early on.. I'm not used to keeping plants in veg for this long... i do think when all said and done, she's gonna be a beast, so it'll be worth it... Thanks again @Grow4releaf!! Happy grown everybody God bless āœŒļø

GMO Cookies Served with Extra Curiosity ?šŸŖ Week 14 — Harvest Report | Fresh Frozen Experiment And here we are. Week 14. Harvest week. And honestly… the room looked absolutely unreal. Before we even touched the scissors, before a single branch was cut, before the freezer bags started filling up, there was already this feeling in the room that these girls had become something special. Massive structures. Heavy flowers. Long spears. Dense tops. Colors everywhere. Deep greens. Fading yellows. Lime tones. Hints of gold. Dark shadows between swollen calyxes. And then the smell… Oh man. The smell. This is one of those cultivars that genuinely makes the room feel less like a grow room and more like walking into a kitchen where someone is preparing something loud, greasy, savory, and unforgettable. The GMO side of these genetics speaks immediately and unapologetically. Garlic. Onion. Savory funk. That unmistakable ā€œfood terpeneā€ profile that GMO became legendary for. But underneath all that aggression, there is still sweetness hiding in there too. Cookie dough warmth. Earthiness. Creamy backend notes. A weird balance between offensive and delicious that only certain genetics can truly achieve. And honestly? We loved it. But before diving fully into this week, let’s do what we always do and quickly recap the journey, because by now many people arrive only at the final reports and never see the earlier stages of the diary. So first of all: yes… once again we divided the harvest into multiple reports šŸ˜„ And honestly, we know it starts becoming a clichĆ© at this point. But there is simply too much here: * too many photos, * too many details, * too many observations, * too many experiments, * too much resin, * and too much love for the plant itself to throw everything into one rushed update. This run deserved time. From seed until now, this GMO Cookies run was grown under a 12/12 from seed cycle using the F.O.G. LED setup, inside the Mammoth Elite tent environment, with careful environmental management throughout the run. The girls received multiple rounds of LST, selective defoliation, and continuous observation to maintain airflow and light penetration while still allowing the plants to express themselves naturally. And express themselves they absolutely did. These plants developed huge vascular systems and incredibly thick stems by the end of flower. Once harvest began and we started cutting branches down, the insides looked almost like miniature tree trunks. Thick water highways running through the center, dense supportive tissue everywhere, strong skeletal structures carrying massive tops from beginning to end. You could physically feel how much water and energy these plants had been moving daily. Some stems genuinely felt more like wood than plant tissue. And that strength translated directly into the flowers themselves: dense, heavy, greasy, stacked, and extremely aromatic. Now here comes the part that will probably make some people cry a little šŸ˜„ Because normally, growers harvest and dry most of their flower for smoking… while only freezing smaller amounts for hash washing later. We did the exact opposite here. Most of these girls went directly into the freezer. And yes… intentionally. Why? Because this plant was screaming hash potential from the beginning. The resin texture, the greasy leaf rub, the finger stickiness, the way trichomes smeared across gloves, the density of the heads, the aroma intensity… everything about this cultivar felt like it was asking to become fresh frozen. So after removing fan leaves and preparing the flowers carefully, we separated the majority of the buds specifically for freezing. Not whole plants. Not stems. Not unnecessary material. Just flowers. Pure bud material prepared for future washing. Final fresh frozen numbers landed around: 755.5 grams total including bags, which leaves us somewhere roughly around the 700–730g range of actual fresh frozen flower material once packaging weight is removed. And honestly… that is incredibly exciting. For anyone unfamiliar with fresh frozen: this means the flowers are frozen immediately after harvest instead of being dried first. The goal here is preservation. Fresh frozen material helps preserve volatile terpenes, delicate aromatic compounds, and resin characteristics that can partially disappear during traditional drying and curing. Later, this material can be processed into: * ice water hash, * bubble hash, * live hash, * live rosin, * or other solventless extractions. And despite some people debating whether water itself should technically count as a ā€œsolvent,ā€ the reality is that this process remains one of the cleanest and most beautiful extraction methods in cannabis culture. Ice. Water. Movement. Separation through resin density. That’s it. And based on what we already felt from simply handling these plants? This could become something truly beautiful later on. Even during harvest, the resin behavior was already honestly ridiculous. The gloves became sticky almost immediately. Fingers started collecting greasy residue after only small amounts of handling. The scissors became coated quickly. And the texture of that resin… dark, oily, greasy, almost greasy-food-like in character, which feels incredibly fitting for a GMO cultivar. This is the type of resin that makes hash makers smile instantly. Now of course, we did not freeze absolutely everything. We intentionally kept select flowers aside for traditional drying and curing because we want to compare the expressions later: * cured flower terpene profile, * versus fresh frozen hash expression, * versus eventual solventless extraction results. That comparison itself is part of the experiment. And honestly, that is one of the beautiful things about growing: sometimes the harvest is not the end of the project. Sometimes harvest is simply the beginning of several new ones. The flowers we kept for drying are currently hanging under controlled conditions while the frozen material quietly waits for its transformation later on. And yes… there will absolutely be future reports about the washing process. About the ice water extraction. About the resin quality. About the yields. About the terpene preservation. About the final hash itself. But for now? This week belongs to the harvest. To the skeletons. To the colors. To the smells. To the giant branches hanging in silence. To the freezer bags packed full of greasy flowers. To the excitement of possibility. And honestly… to experimentation too. Because growing is not only about repeating safe formulas forever. Sometimes it is also about curiosity. Trying things. Learning. Observing. Comparing. Taking risks. Seeing what happens. And this entire harvest feels driven by exactly that spirit. We also brought these girls into the studio before harvest because honestly they deserved their final photoshoot. And wow. They looked incredible. Some shots leaned cinematic and dark. Others focused on vivid greens and flower structure. Some highlighted the towering spear-like colas. Others focused on greasy closeups and texture. And under the studio lights, the resin coverage became even more obvious. The flowers looked almost wet in certain angles. Sticky. Alive. Heavy. Exactly the kind of flower that instantly tells you: ā€œThis is not going to stay clean for long once trimming starts.ā€ šŸ˜„ Which brings us to next week. Next week will likely focus on: * drying, * trimming, * resin collection, * finger hash, * scissor hash, * handling techniques, * curing preparation, * and possibly the beginning of the washing process if time allows. If not, the washing report will arrive later as its own chapter. And honestly? That feels right. Because this run deserves patience. Now before ending this report, as always: Thank you. To Zamnesia. To Plagron. To F.O.G. To the gear. To the platform. To the community. To the growers sharing knowledge every day. To the silent supporters. To the curious people discovering the diary for the first time. To the macro lovers. To the hash makers. To the flower lovers. To the skeptics šŸ˜„ To everyone spending even a few seconds here with us. This plant may already be harvested… but honestly?

Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal.

Mandarin Squeeze Dark and mysterious, this beauty stands out with her rich, deep green tones and impressively dense buds. Her flowers feel like rocks, and her aroma hints at a citrusy explosion waiting to happen. Punch Pie What can we say about this heavyweight? Her large, dense buds are jaw-dropping, and her presence in the tent is commanding. She’s proving to be a genetic masterpiece, delivering beyond expectations. šŸŒž Environmental Mastery This week, we’ve begun the slow decline of PPFD to 750, keeping reds and UVs strong while easing back on whites—a calculated move to guide these girls into the final stages. The room’s stats speak volumes: • Temps: 27.8°C with RH at 64.8%. • CO2: 800 ppm for consistent growth energy. • Reservoir: PH 6.16, TDS 791, temp 21°C. • Soil Stats: TDS 669, temp 22°C. Even the fun facts are worth noting: leaf temps are ranging between 26.6°C and 24.2°C, while the LED bars are holding steady at 38°C, and the ICL-300 at 35.6°C. Aero Fan at 23°C and the filter output at 24.7°C highlight the precision and control in this room, all thanks to the incredible TrolMaster ecosystem. šŸ’§ Feeding and Nutrient Update Our transition from organic minerals to a solo mineral approach has been a game-changer. These girls are thriving! Here’s the recipe this week: • System Clean: 0.25 ml/L. • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L. • All-in-One Liquid: 1.75 ml/L. • K-Boost: 0.5 ml/L. • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L. This blend is bringing out the best in each plant, delivering unparalleled frost, density, and aroma. The stability of the pH, thanks to minerals, has made life simpler while pushing the plants toward peak performance. 🌟 Reflecting on Progress It’s a joy to walk into this room and witness the results of months of effort. Each plant is delivering on its promise, and the smells, colors, and trichome production are truly next-level. The journey has been demanding, but the rewards are sweeter than ever. The curiosity to see how they finish is at an all-time high! šŸ’¬ Shoutouts and Community Love As always, massive gratitude to the sponsors that make this possible: • TrolMaster for precise environmental control. • Aptus Holland for top-tier nutrients. • Cannakan for their unwavering support. • Pro-Mix Soil for a robust foundation. • Seed Banks for the incredible genetics.

7/11 It's pouring. We got like 2 in of rain. I compared the flowering with that of the mendo breath I grew in a previous journal and they are real close. Tjat was DONE DONE in September. Judging by the small preflowers they are going to be ready approximately around the same time. I think I'm going to have a middle September harvest with some and some will go to October. Realistically, I should've changed this to flower. I like to call it "the stretch" though. Plants are stretching like a mother fucker. Seems like the less I fuck with them the better they do! No nutes yet. I'm going on vacation for a week and I think I won't feed before I leave either. Plants don't look like they are lacking in anything. Just because I have tons of nutes doesn't mean I need to use them. Still need to put up the secondary supports for flower. Went over after a break in the rain. Went through each plant one by one. Most had leaves that were either turning yellow or yellow at the bottom interior. I only removed leaves that were dead or dieing. I should probably have degoliated more but I'm doing the KISS method this year. Things seem to be doing good that way. Some minor pests. I found a slug but put out slug bait for those and earwigs. Noticed a few white flies and multi color flies (probably fungus knats but they are up at the top, not down by the soil. I'm going to think about it and do some research. Damage is so MINIMAL and pests are MINIMAL that im holding off spraying. I mat start nutes tomorrow though. I'm uncertain on a lot of things. I need to meditate on it. Just because those interior leaves died the plants are still a LUSH dark green so I think they're alright. It's going really good but I'm going to be on vacation for a week. I can still monitor daily with my camera's and my family that is watching them will FaceTime me every morning and show me what's going on. They know what they're doing and if something arises I have BASICALLY a growers union in my town. All family. We look after each other. That's the only reason I considered even going. However, the event horizons, sherb pie, toasted toffy and AT LEAST 1 GMO "LOOK" like they will be flowering early. Like I said they look similar to a mendo breath pheno on another diary that finished in September. We shall see. I'm excited that's for sure! 7/12 So far no rain! Super hot and muggy. Killed a jpn beetle and a moth larvae this morning and another beetle this afternoon. I'm seeing SOME pest damage which makes me want to spray before some of these plants take off flowering. There isn't much damage and tje birds sit on the top just WAITING for a chance to swoop in and grab something. I've seen tons of wasps tjis year. I killed a snail yesterday and put out slug bait around my pallets. I'm leaving early tomorrow. I'm CONSIDERING doing an application of Cap'n Jack's before I leave. I'm not sure. I made little DIY videos for dad and I hope he follows them. If not I'll have another grower come help. With all the rain I noticed some white flies when I shook a couple plants. I don't have time to really deal with it right now. There were only a few and I think spinosad would kill those too. Either way it will be fine. I can monitor via camera. I can even hit an alarm that goes to four different people. Still. I don't like leaving my girls. Especially in this heat. 7/13 Left early for a short vacation. Just got a picture saying it's sunny there and my plants are doing good. I'm lucky to havecthe crew that I do. I'm sure if I asked they'd put up yellow sticky traps. That's something I may consider. 7/14 Dad said it Rained last night and driving down here it was just PURE SHEET RAIN. He sent me pics I uploaded and everything looks GREAT! gonna get sun after all that rain and wind. They are gonna explode! 7/15 Still on Vacation. Dad showed me the plants and said they looked a little dry so I had him use the 4 GALLONS OF WATER I HAD PREMIXED FOR HIM TO WATER THE GARDEN. This way each plant gets a half gallon. It's supposed to be in the 90's with no rain tonight. Rains euppised to come tomorrow but I've seen how fast a bag can dry out in ONE day with super hot weather and high winds. The wind blows through the bag drying the medium out. Dad's right. Things do look amazing. I'm having fun but it will be nice to get back and see if I was right and those few plants are trying to flower. Looks just like those two mendo phenomes that flowered early. 7/16 still on vacation. Got a nice rain for the plants. Not much though. 7/17 Had DAD WATER FOUR GALLONS ON THE GARDEN. ANOTHER HEAT ADVISORY IN EFFECT. I really miss my girls. I'm ready to get going and start doing the things that need to be done. Few more days and I'll be home with my pretty ladies. Last time I came back to nice little flowers. They looked about in the same stage when I left. I love early finishers. They're stretching thsts for sure.
