 [Purple] Phantom Cookies - Curing - November 16  1

August 22
the purple cookies came from altitude organic medicine in colorado springs. its a purple pheno of phantom cookies. the purple og18 are from seed, from Reserva Privada. i germinated 2 fem seeds, and ended up with 2 different phenos. a shorter, bushier plant and a taller more spaced out plant, more space between nodes. i recently took 6 clones off each purple cookie and 4 clones off each OG18. the clones are in a dome under some T5s in my closet while the vegging plants are in a tent under a 400w MH
   
September 5
i put my 1000w Hortilux HPS in and started 12/12 last night. just took a few pictures. i'm too lazy to get really good pics of the plants. i'll just wait until they start flowering before i start pulling plants out of the tent to get good pictures of.

September 15
Got a few pictures before the light turned on this morning. Today is day 11 of flower, and things are lookin pretty good. I do have some kind of gnats, which I've never had before. I think it's from the Roots Organic soil I'm using. I've read that it's a common problem with that soil. I've only used Fox Farm's Ocean Forest, and never had a problem with bugs or anything, so I'll probably be switching back.

September 27
today is day 23 in flower. everythings coming alone nicely. the cookies are starting to pack on the weight while the OGs look a little behind, but still coming along pretty nicely.
    
October 2
just found a few male flowers on the purple og18... it hurt to do, but i killed both plants. fuck hermaphrodites. im not dealing with that shit again. so thats 2 in flower that i've killed so far, and 8 more in veg that i still have to deal with. the cookies are fine...
October 19
so its been a while since ive updated this. i ended up pushing it with the nutrients this time around. i was trying something different,and i learned what happened... ended up flushing each plant. back to lower ppm bloom every other watering. i think im going to cut out the additives like liquid karma and pure blend tea. pretty sure thats what burned/locked up my plants.
i'll take some pictures later and upload them on here. i have 6 more clones that are looking super healthy. when i harvest these 2, i'm putting 4 in flower and cutting 2 completely down for clones. hoping to dial this strain in. it looks like a pretty good cut of the phantom cookies.
October 20
day 46 of flower today. buds are definitely starting to go purple. cant wait for the next round of cookies to go in...
    
October 27
day 52 of flower today. everything is looking good. probably about 2 weeks left before harvest. i bought a new reflector yesterday, a 6" blockbuster. nice upgrade from a broken super sun 2. i bought a strawberry cough clone the other day, so ill be growing that out and taking clones. keep an eye out for that 
my veg room of cookie clones 
   
October 31
first day of week 9 today and these buds are lookin sexxy, so i thought id post some more pics happy halloween everyone!
   
the next round of cookies to go in (and one tiny strawberry cough clone tucked in there)
i think im going to do an experiment and run botanicares pure blend pro bloom on 3 of them and use advanced nutrients sensi bloom on the other 3.
November 9
everything is lookin great (despite that burn) been flushing since halloween, today is day 66. i'll be harvesting in the next couple days. smells amazing. just likes it's parents (cherry pie x GDP) a dank grapey berry smell. mmm MMMM
   
November 13
been harvesting over the past couple days. i dont have a lot of time since i work so much, so im finishing it up today. just a bunch of tiny buds left on the plants now. i got all the main colas and bigger buds. im drying in a rack, inside of a small grow tent. i have hygrometers to watch the humidity and the temp. everyday i open the tent and let refresh the air.
   
also found a nice shot i took while trimming, of the inside of a bud. gotta love the purple
November 16
the first buds i harvested felt dry enough for jars. what i cut down the first day filled up 2 and a half quart sized mason jars. i put one of my thermo/hygrometers in one of the full jars to get accurate humidity and temp readings in the jars. ive fucked up the drying process a few times by overthinking it, but i think ive got that part down now. i guess ill find out in a week or so when i open a jar to check on it. over the next 2 days ill be jarring the rest of the bud that's in the drying rack. once its all dried, i'll get a final weight, and give it a smoke.

well fuck.
just found male flowers on both the OG18s. just like my MK Ultra from seed, these male flowers appeared at the end of the 4th week/beginning of 5th week of flower. i killed both plants and im about to kill all their clones too.
there werent a lot of male flowers that i saw, but one is too many on a female plant. they werent dropping pollen, so i think the purple cookies are fine.
i'm done with feminized seeds. i'm going to germinate a few starkiller og seeds from rare dankness next, and try my luck there.

I've heard that fem could have hermie tendency but never knew it was as common as it was. How often does it happen to you?
Great looking ladies, nonetheless.

its happened a couple times. once with regular seeds, which was my last grow that was MK Ultra from seed that i bought from Adam Dunn himself... i threw that pack of seeds away.
i'm going to just keep running these cookies. i got the clones from a good dispensary (altitude organic) and i know one of the managers there. actually just talked to him today and he told me these purple cookies are phantom cookies, not platinum like i had thought.

Ok, lets get this down again. The reason for feminized seeds with a high rate of being hermie is cause the breeder didn't feel like doing the work. Feminized seeds that come from plants that are properly stressed tested have no more a rate of churning hermie then regular seeds.
Then there are the breeders that claim that they produce their feminized seeds naturally or organically if you see this run. They not only do not test for hermie plants they use them to make the seeds.

thanks budgrower!
updated with a few pics. gonna harvest in the next few days and put round 2 in. this time ill be flowering 6 cookies. also took 8 clones a few days ago, i definitely want to keep this strain in my garden. i thought about trying another nutrient line alongside botanicare, but, i'm lazy and dont feel like trying it afterall lol. maybe in the future. i'll be adding floralicious plus to the mix this time around. i found a 1oz bottle on ebay for 5 bucks. figured id give it a shot before spending 40 on a pint of it.

so over the past couple days ive been harvesting as much of the plants as i can. i work 8-9 hours a day 6 days a week growing for a dispensary, so i'm kinda worn out and dont have much time to trim. hoping to get this knocked out today with the help of a friend of mine. i just have a bunch of small buds left on both plants to trim up. nothing too airy. pretty dense bud structure even on the small popcorn buds. lots of nice purples and greens. i gotta run to the grow store to pick some stuff up, but i'll update later today with some pictures of the harvested bud, and how i'm drying it out.
also, i'm going to start a new grow log with more phantom cookies. i have 6 in the tent vegging under my 1000w HPS. i dont have money for a 600 or 1000w MH right now, so i'm just using the HPS to veg for a week.
also, long story, but i may end up with a few cuttings of bubba kush (possibly pre 98 bubba) and biodiesel, which is an unreleased strain created by denver relief. clone only, and not many people are growing it. so im kind of excited.
