No fruit. All funk with touch of fuel.
I found no lemony smelling plants from the seeds, but I heard of bunch of folks saying it smelled like lemon soap.
This is my wife's favorite strain. That's all she will smoke when it's around. She even smoked all of the outdoor Freakshow when she finished the indoor.

you're supposed to find 50 if the mutation is linked to 1 gene and that gene is probably recessive.
I think it is more than 1 gene that needs to be present to have to fern like mutation. that's why we're only finding 5% .
Because I have the same "problem" with the line from canna research co. . If you do find a keeper it's worth it tho
I live in 49'N and only autoflowering freakshow makes sense because the full-season version doesn't ripen on time. I don't need freak leaves indoors haha
Yes Frank, it must depend on more than 1 gene. I only found 10 out of 200, 2 of which had freak leaves and were autoflowering. Unfortunately both were male. So I pollinated a female full-season freakshow with them and I'm starting again. Now it will be easier. The autoflowering trait depends only on 1 recessive gene.

I grew out a couple freakshow from the original release. I would describe the potency as medium/good day weed. The terpenes tho were really unique. The seeds were slow to germinate and the plants grow slow.
I did make a GG4 x Freakshow cross and still run a non-freak F1 from that cross. The potency is bumped up by the GG4 and the terpenes are mostly the Freakshow with a bit of the GG4 funk.
I also have a (GG4 x Freakshow) x Freakshow that is freaky growing, but again real slow to veg.
Flowering time is 9-10 weeks but it veg's like a slow growing indica.
I made some (GG4 x Freakshow) F2 and got about 25% freaks. I also made some (GG4 x Freakshow) x Freakshow and got about 50% freaks.
I got bored and didn't make F3s but I did make a few ((GG4 x Freakshow) x Freakshow) x (Freakshow F2) and those are all freak but also slow growing. I started a couple of these like 2 months ago and they're about 10" tall but are starting to get branchy.
I found the original Freakshow didn't branch much but the crosses are branchier and more xmas tree shaped.
I picked up a pack of the Supafreak, just haven't gotten around to germinating any yet.

I grew a Supafreak awhile back. Terps were just like Freakshow but a much harder punch....still a day weed but definitely moved up in potency. Still a slow vegger and then explodes when flipped.

Starting a miniature pheno hunt of Freakshow.
Popped 10 seeds, 9 sprouted. I think I have 14 more seeds. I mislabeled the two freakshows I had, and lost my frosty cut. Hopefully I find another frosty giant and I'll make seeds with the best looking male to look thru in the future.

I loved growing the freakshow.
Did you find this weed gets you high? Mine was more of a novelty as it didn’t really get me high. I still have most of my harvest in jars on the bottom shelf…
Oh yes! Mine have all been very potent. Strong sativa type buzz. I need to pop a few more the wife goes through my stash of it faster than I can grow it. Supafreak was even stronger. Most I've grown came from Shapeshifter's site Hielevationgentics.com The first one I grew was in a Humboldt package a few years back...he acknowledged they were his genetics but wasn't pleased about some part of their deal....not sure what was up there. So I can only speak for that 1 seed and the rest from his site.
Looks like a thistel
