@pedrero - Thanks man, she is really coated with resin, I need to get better lighting on pictures to better capture the frost she has. The pictures I have been getting for the most part are not doing her or the other girls justice accurately displaying how much frost they truly have. I do have 6 plants finishing up flowering right now, sadly only 1 Goji Og. Had popped 4 seeds and ended up with 3 males. The rest of the plants consist of; 3 x The Fuzz, 1x Elephant Stomper and 1x Pineapple express. I do have my Summer Grow Log documenting the rest of the ladies in this run. I chose to showcase the Goji for the Summer Newbie Grow Contest because I was most excited and had the highest expectations for her.

I couldn't agree with you more on the smells with this girl, they have been changing and getting more complex on a weekly basis. Started off really skunky, then developed into a straight Og funk. Then for a bit she had almost completely lost the Og funk for a berries and cream smell. She is now giving off a very complex smell hitting on so many spectrums blending together its hard to describe. Best I can do is skunk, cream, mint, lemon, pine, berry, earthy, kushy funk. Its very unique, complex and by far the strongest smelling of the 6 plants. As soon as I pop my head in the tent I can pick her unique smell out with ease. She doesn't sit in the front of the tent either, there is a incredibly offensive Fuzz and crazy pungent Elephant Stomper in front of her.

Thank you for all the kind words pedrero, I am really excited to see how she turns out. I started out with very high expectations for this strain and she has exceeded all of them to this point. I hope and have a strong feeling she will be very special when finished. She is sure going to be beautiful and smell amazing at the very least. I love what you have been doing with your grow, I hope mine turns out as pretty and special as your girl, you did an amazing work! :tiphat:

@Casper808 - Aloha Casper, glad to hear your having good experiences with her, sure sounds like it if you have been running her for a year. Love to hear she finishes strong, can't wait to see what changes are in store for the next couple weeks until she finishes. She is getting very fat and her flowers seem to be getting very dense. Her hairs have really started changing colors past couple of weeks around 40-50%, a really light orange almost look pink. I'm thinking she probably has another 2 maybe 3 weeks, would guess about 70-77 days.

My pheno sounds to be more like the stinky berry creamy one your speaking of. Mine has the undeniable berry and cream with strong Og funk blended in. I have heard of the rotten fruit phenos, wish I had more than the one pheno, still have 8 seeds to search through though. I will be making F2's in the future with this line and getting at least one more pack for the collection. I know this is a very special strain from my small experience and all the other great plants and grows other members have found.

Thanks for dropping by Casper and sharing some information. Would love to hear more about your experiences with her and the phenos you have found. Do you have any logs with your grows would love to check them out? :tiphat:

@BayBHuey - Thank you so much for all the kind words I really appreciate it. I would recommend popping some of your Gojis, such a wonderful plant to grow. I'm really looking forward to going through the rest of my pack in the future. Going to buy another pack as well, there is some magic in these beans, I need to stock up.


Update 9/1 - Day 92 - Flower Day 52


It has been an excellent holiday weekend for me, I hope everyone else is having a great weekend. Such a happy week for the garden really on the home stretch now, one plant came down today and more will be finishing up over the next couple of weeks. The Goji will probably be one of if not the last plant to come down. I'm thinking she will be ready right around 70 days, she might need a little more time and perhaps less.


Did some work with the positioning and lighting for this weeks photo shoot. Really happy with how some of these pictures have come out, I hope everyone enjoys them as much as I am. Was able to finally move plants away from the warm glow of the 1000w HPS and I think it really paid off. Able to see much better details and was really able to better showcase the crystals and this beautiful girl in all her glory. Still a work in progress with these pictures some of these still have the typical lighting seen in most of my pictures, like the first one. It does get better I promise, looking into possibly getting a nice new digital camera that will allow me to take better pictures. I would love to be able to take macro photos of my plants and really show off some frost.


Goji Og #3

These pictures are officially at what Im counting as day 52 of flower. The light cycle was taken down from 18/6 to 12/12 over a period of 5 days. I started counting the flowering from the first official day of 12/12, today could be considered week 8 flower or day 56.

Anyways lets get the show started.....


picture.php



She has really just been swelling up a lot and packing on the frost this past week. She has very strong branches but can really see the weight she has been packing on the way she flops around. Having her staked to bamboo probably isn't necessary but I think the added support has really helped her and is letting her really fatten up nicely.


picture.php



I noticed this week that her hairs that had initially changed to a really pale light pink have now turned to an orange/brown color. She still looks amazing but was really hoping she would finish up with pink hairs. She still has a lot of white hairs they have been really slow to change on her. Not too much longer remaining though she is starting to show a lot of milky resin glands.


picture.php



The smells on this girl just keep getting better and better, its so easy to pick her odor out over the other plants in the tent. She has an undeniable Og funk to her but it has really blended in with the creamy berry smell amazingly. The different smells have mixed together so well it has given her such a unique smell, so unfamiliar yet familiar if that makes any sense. Very interesting and unique terpenes going on with her a funky Og skunk berry greasy milkshake is the best I can do.

Need to give a big thank you to the man Bodhi for providing these great seeds to the community. Some really special and unique plants to be found and so easy to grow. She has been a very easy girl to keep happy and is looking to provide me with some really dense aromatic flowers.


picture.php



She is just loaded with big chunky spears oozing of crystally goodness everywhere. Have loved the shape, color and texture of her leafs such a pretty dark green. She has started her faded though and starting to show some yellows. Really excited to see what other colors she might show in the final couple weeks of her cycle.


picture.php



She has been very easy to grow and looks like she will be very easy to trim as well. She isn't picky or finicky with really anything can take good feedings with out any negative effects. I love that on the sides of some of her sugar leafs are just getting so encrusted with crystals. It really reminds me of things you would see on deep chunck, peyote purple and other really frosted indica plants, not nearly to that extreme with her, nice none the less.


picture.php



There won't be to many more updates remaining before this log comes to a close. Will be getting lots of pictures for all the remaining updates and there will also be dried shots and a smoke report to follow. I will provide my end analysis of this pheno as a plant to grow and the flower she produces for what its worth to anyone. It has been a fun journey I have felt like a kid waiting for christmas morning to come, so pleased with this girl and can't wait to see how she finishes.

Hey GA,

Thanks for the compliments everything is coming along great right now!

I usually will flush anywhere from 2-3 weeks. As of today the Goji last received nutes 6 days ago. She should have in between 2 and a half and 3 weeks of flush before she comes down.

Update 9/8 - Day 99 - Flower Day 59


Goji Og #3


Things are looking and smelling really good was a great weekend in the garden for me. She is coming along getting closer every week, she has done a lot of yellowing and fading this week. She still looks like she is going to be atleast another week. She still has lots of white hairs they are taking their time to change on her but still has a good amount of clear trichromes. Hoping she will be finished next week but thinking will be around 2 more weeks.

She sure seems like she is still packing on the weight had to tie up a couple more of her branches to stakes over the weekend. Her flowers don't seem like they have gotten a whole lot bigger but can really see them getting dense they way her branches are being weighted down. She has really packed on the frost quite a bit, she is just dripping with sticky resin right now. Smell wise still very unique and just getting stronger, best I can do is a very smooth skunky og funk mixed with a creamy berry milkshake.

Very excited this week really starting to get down some quality pictures. This weeks are by far the best yet went a little crazy and overboard with pictures this week. I'm not going to upload all of them there are just too many, they will be in my albums for those that would like to see more.

enough chit chat time to get the show started.....
