Thanks for stopping by Jason! Appreciate it.

Yeah, that is the main cola (I didn't top it) and in that particular picture it is day 56, so it hasn't really started swelling or filling out up there quite as much yet like the lower nugs have. Seems like this plant kinda likes less light then your average plant, so things looks different at various levels. I'll get a more recent shot tmrw, and show the progress on the main cola. Its starting to fill out more and swell up and hairs are dying off pretty quickly now, but it is more spear tipped for sure. Not as much that "rose bud" looking structure as others GSC looks. The colors are there for sure, the OG smell is there, the structure of the stems and bud sites is there... and the density is there, so yeah.. We'll see what happens.

One thing is for sure, though. It's going to be a tasty treat no matter what.

Hello everyone!

Here's an update from today at day 61.

Things are looking really good and more hairs have continued to die off and the darkening/purpling continues. Should be able to see it in the pics now. I tried to get some better shots showing the coloring. It looks like its finishing up pretty fast now. Doesn't look like its kicking out anymore flowers from what I can tell. Just swelling up and turning colors. Lower buds still need some work, but they are looking pretty swollen too. Sry about the same angles, its just easily accessible with my big ass ipad, otherwise I would cause some havoc trying to get better shots.

How about some contrast and compare? Take a look at her sister I told you about who isn't as hot, but smells really good. (bottom pic) That's from the same batch of seeds . That's the top cola. Completely different looking plant. So you can really see how I ended up with some really special. I bet it will smoke good though... it smells super sweet. Like big league chew or something. Cant quite put a finger on it.

Anyway, thanks again to everyone who stopped by and given me rep. I really appreciate everyone's contribution and response. Thanks so much guys!

Enough talk, lets see some pics!!

Main Cola @ day 61 of the other girl

The pictures in this post (https://www.icmag.com/ic/showpost.ph...41&postcount=4) are EXACTLY identical to the girl scout cookies I got my beans from. Literally identical looking. You can even see how mine will pretty much look exactly like those dried nug shots, or at least I can. I think mine may actually have more resin production then the original. I got the bag in November, so it wasn't that long ago. Still pretty fresh to the memory.

Here's some more shots at day 62. Things are really starting to look pretty much finished on the top canopy. Lower buds still need a little time. Tried to get new angles/different buds.. better side shots showing the density and structure. Make sure to click on the images to get a bigger/better version. This forum really jacks up the quality and detail of my pics and I cant figure out how to negate that. Maybe someone can help.

Thanks again guys!

That licorice / anise smell is likely coming from the Durban in the equation. Nice looking plant for sure. Gotta love them bag seeds!!

Hey thanks for commenting and the info, Dank Frank. Thats really interesting, I'll have to read more up on Durban. Its been a long time since I smoked any and I can't really remember the flavor.

Well, I finally sorted the pictures quality thing. Heres some shots that actually do it justice!! These show the density and coloring a lot better. Let me know what you guys think!

[dank.frank]

My new favorite thread to come drool over. I'm going to have to drink grape koolaid, chew a black jellybean, and eat a scoop of chocolate mint ice cream, and swish it all around in my mouth - just so I can get an idea of what this lady might taste like!!!

She really is a beauty. Can't stop looking!! I'm starting to feel a bit like a pervert starting at a long legged blonde in a short skirt!

It's interesting the sister plant is still spitting white hairs...and that the lowers on the GLC are significantly frostier than the tops. I do see the very slightest bit of tip burn on the leaves indicating a high feeding / and slight over feeding at one point in the grow cycle. Not a criticism by any means, but it could mean the plant still tossing new white pistils is more sensitive to nitrogen or is going to be overly mature in general. Might be one you have to look at trich color to determine when she is done vs waiting for the pistils to indicate such by browning off. I'd be keeping a close eye on that to make sure that one doesn't start tossing out any nanners in those spots.

I know a buddy has a Durban that ran 18wks and STILL hadn't finished flowering fully...was still tossing white pistils. So you could be seeing such things surface in these seeds as well, even though, it's obviously not a pure Durban or super long flowering sativa, with these likely being S1 (assuming) there is a lot of free flowing genetic information that has been recombined and it's certainly possible to see such traits surface in unusual ways that aren't thought of as typical.

Forum cut in general, would tend to produce better flowers with the lights slightly further away from her than would be considered the norm for other plants. I don't know if this is due to lighting intensity or the marginal decrease in surface temperatures...either way, it holds true. You might find the same to be true with the GLC. In future runs it might be something worth trying.

I'm over here like a cheerleader hoping she will reveg for you!!! Good luck!!! May the canna gods be ever in your favor!!

Thanks again dank frank. I'm really proud of her. Its getting hard to resist not cutting it down and starting the drying process but I know its needs more time.

Yeah, the burnt tips is totally my wrong doing. I fed them three times in a row and that last time burnt them a little... It wasn't too bad though. The sister actually didn't burn as much as the GLC. That was awhile ago though. They are on a diet of plain ole water right now until the end.

The sister is definitely doing some weird shit. She's all over the place and I don't really understand her. She's still kicking out tons of flowers and fox tailing like crazy, yet some of the branches looks done, while some bud sites look like GSC structure and others don't.. Whatever, shes coming down when the other one does. I'm not gonna dick around with her even if shes kicking out flowers. I think you're right that she just reacted to the feeding. Probably the last feeding i did at like day 55-56. I cant remember now.

She will reveg!! I use the tried and true technique! https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=26290

I see some forum cut GSC similarities. Dark leaves, frost on the fan leaves. Nice job with the bag seed, I see no nanners on any of your pics. I've been running the GSC forum cut for years now and I'm pretty familiar with/like the cut. The thing I first thought was that the lowers on my GSC often like to sneak nanners into hard to see spots and sometimes I get a random bud full of seeds as you describe. Maybe someone didn't purposeful pollinate said nug and forgot, maybe it's simply some hermie seeds... Idk?

I agree with dank frank, try backing the lights off of this one just to see what happens. The forum cut is unique in that she produces a little bit better with the lights a little farther back.

Nice work with the bagseed looking forward to watching it finish.

I'm COorganics on other forums if you are curious.

Hey thanks for chiming in Skyhigh. Appreciate it. Yeah, its probably more likely to have been pollinated by itself. Who knows...

Yeah, you can definitely see the similarities but also the uniqueness at the same time. The pictures dont really do it justice, this is one you need to see with your own two eyes.

In the last couple days its really started turning a dark purple all over the place like the forum. Mostly around the bud sites and some of the larger fan leaves. It looks like someone spray painted them. Its really trippy looking. Some spots are really rich purple looking. I;ll try and get some good shots showing the purpling... But as i was saying to dank frank, shes super multicolored and the crystal is super white giving her a caked look. Its super mouth watering. It actually looks like some kind of cookie or "treat" ... Yeah i think the lighting is key with this girl too, so it will just take some time to learn her traits, but over all.. a super easy girl to grow. She did most of the work!

How long do you let your forum cut go for? Im thinking I got another 5 days on it.. but it could be a little longer. I'm at 64 tomorrow.

Here's a cool shot of her at day 62

[dank.frank]

I could pull Forum between 8-9wks...BUT usually let her run 9. Some people like her longer, but it could be slight environmental differences.

Keeping in mind, if a shop had "GSC" that came from the CookieFam - it would have been seeds from Thin Mint pheno. Which means, it wouldn't look like a standard S1 coming off the Forum which we see a lot more of.

Personally, I see bits of both the Forum and the OGKB cut when I look at the GLC - I think it lends credence to the possibility the seeds are S1's of the Thin Mint cut. We've seen a LOT of examples of "cookie"-esque plants and to me this lady certainly looks the part.
