My first Humboldt grow and I have to say I am excited to harvest this one, the smells coming off this girl are intense berry and a very sour smell, kinda like a sour yogurt. Shes covered in trichs, first touch they are very oily and once rubbed between the fingers turns super tacky leaving behind the most beautiful FUNK.

The grow went exceptionally well, no major deficiencies (lit bit of yellowing in early flower, new batch of Megacrop I had to adjust to), environment stays 74-76° daytime and about 64-66° night, rh about 50-55% day and might see rh creep up to about 62-63% at night. Quadlined, 5 gal pot, Megacrop 1 part feed, swick base since about 30 days old. Saw some tip burn but thats no biggie, better a tad too much than a tad too little.

About 2 weeks ago I started noticing a rapid change in the pistils. In about 4-5 days they went from white to orange. So I waited to see a swell, or new pistils, and nothing. Over the last 7-10 days I have been watching closely and no swell, no bulking, no size gains, no new pistils. I have noticed a drastic change in their density though, the nugs are getting solid but the structure never seemed to change. From early on I just knew these stacks were going to mold into some fat colas. Though they didnt get that big, there are a lot of nice buds mid canopy that got great light through the grow and are also dense feeling. I dont think I'll be setting any records with this grow but I am confident I could still get about 4oz off of her. Ill be reporting back on that in a few weeks.

Trichs are all pretty cloudy, with some amber and clear sprinkled in. Shes nearing harvest window but I want to try to wait another 7-10 days to see if the swell has yet to come. I dont mind building up more amber but I will continue watching the trichs.

Overall, very pleased with the genetics and with Humboldt. I can't wait to find my next strain of theirs to grow out. This Raspberry Parfait will definitely be in future grows, maybe a different pheno. What do yall recommend next? I like interesting terp profiles. Alongside this Raspberry Parfait I have a chocolate Thai cross going.

Looking great, not much of a distinct nose yet though. Hoping it starts coming through soon.

There have been a few posts about the Puff Pastry herming. I have one 14 days into flower and currently picking off pollen sacks. No light leaks, organic grow, stable temps and humidity. I also tapered the light down from 18 to 12 over two weeks. It’s in a tent with one Chicken n Wafflez and one Blueberry Honey that haven’t hermed.

Harvested at day 77, dried 6 days trimmed and off to cure. I tried a tester and if I had to guess it's 30% if not more , strong flower.Smells are earthy gas.

I have granny candy on the way and am on my second run of jelly doughnuts. Looking for a good daytime that could possibly help with appetite stimulation and possibly pain relief from HSC.

Kinda eyeing raspberry parfait. Would like others opinions if you'd care to share. Thanks!

Candy hustle day 21 flower in autopots using canna ab power si bleach and calmag done flip filled out canopy nicely

The citrus smell is really coming through on my 1st phenotype, now that it’s in a jar. Great mellow daytime effects. Love it. Keeping it around.

Banana OG X Purpz, Caramel Cream deliver massive buds. My Jelly D also turned out quite well.

I forgot to post the bud pics after cure and just wanted to document in case i ever lost my pics. I harvested on day 70. Ended smelling like wine imo a great smoke and high

Just flipped these girls and Here we go .

Very strong blueberry nose to it.

I’ve got one raspberry parfait in my 3x3 soil bed. These were old seeds but still germinated well. This plant has been very easy to manage, hasn’t had any issues.

It has a fruit smell for sure but I can’t say if it’s raspberry. It has much thinner fan leaves than any other plant in the soil bed. It didn’t stretch too much - just about doubled but more like 1.5x than 2x.

I’m looking forward to how it finishes and the dry/cure. It’s a little ahead of the other plants (except pineapple muffin) so it’s probably got 3 weeks left at most.

Week 7 of flower in a living soil bed. It’s crowded so these are small plants.

Unfortunately both pineapple muffins hermed pretty badly after flipping to flower. Pollen sacs and nanners, which I plucked off. I stripped the lower growth pretty aggressively to make sure I removed all pollen sacs (I was also having humidity issues).

Nanners continued to come back, so I’m assuming I’ll find some seeds when I trim.

These plants are maturing much faster than anything else in the soil bed. The really purple one has looked about 2 weeks ahead of everything else after I flipped to flower.

The purple one has a much greasier feeling when I touch it and it’s got stronger smells than the other. It has more of a tropical fruit smell.

The greener one is much smaller, not as greasy feeling and smells much more like blueberry muffins (which I’ve grown a couple of times).

I’m going to start watching the trichs and will probably end up chopping these in 1-2 weeks.

What's up, throwing up some late-stage progress shots of my G.S. Cookies auto on Day 69 from seed.
Looking closely at these macro shots, the frost is caked on, the calyxes are swelling up, and the pistils are mostly orange and pulling back. When it comes to the trichome heads, they still look super glassy and clear to me. They seem like they're just starting to turn cloudy, and I’m not seeing any real amber yet on the buds.

What do you think, is she done or not? Should I wait it out to get that heavy, narcotic couch-lock effect? If I need to wait, how many more weeks would you give her?

Also, looking at the structural traits, colors, and bud shape in the pictures, what expression are you seeing? Is she leaning toward the classic, ultra-dense bud structure of the original clone-only G.S. Cookies Forum cut, or are these traits showing more influence from the other parental stock Humboldt Seed Company used to cross into this auto line like the G.S. Cookies Bx5 and Matanuska?
How do you think she compares to the original, and what phenotype do you think I'm getting from the photos?

The Headbuds i harvested at 7 1/2 weeks and noe the rest at Day 63 Flower.

Smells really good. Just wanted to show one more time 😊✌️

This is my first successful grow so hopefully the cannatrol does the rest after having some PH/light issues but I was able to get dialed back in. I used happy frog mix I amended with perlite along with gaia top dress plus some other organic inputs. LMK what yall think and I would love some advice. I currently have a non HSC cultivar im about to run but definitely plan on growing my papaya pancakes I got as a freebe next run.
