Growth is slow but steady for the first two weeks. In week 3 you will start to see leaves grow with increased urgency. Below ground, these genetics produce vigorous root growth and will thrive in aerated grow containers, such as the air-pots used here.
Around week 4 you will often start to see the first real signs of the plant preparing for the bloom which will arrive shortly after. Leaves are often wide with broad fingers, ideal for gathering light and fuelling photosynthesis.
Auto Colorado Cookies early flowering
Weeks 5 & 6 are often characterised by some impressive stretch. As with most Dutch Passion autoflower genetics you will see a dominant central bloom surrounded by a ring of slightly shorter blooms. All will yield heavily and the grower is advised to use powerful LED lights for optimised results under high PPFD light levels.
At this stage the early blooms are still in their infancy. Aroma is starting to intensify, the grower noted a light but sweet and fruity cookie dough aroma. Good cookie genetics tempt the grower with deliciously sweet aromas and this is no exception. This particular genetic ‘Cookies’ line came from Colorado and is famed for a particularly smooth but powerful effect.

In week 7 the Auto Colorado Cookies finished the bulk of the remaining stretch. From this point onwards the plant focussed her reserves on fattening up the blooms and adding a thick resin layer on the buds.
In week 8 you can see the blooms getting broader as the buds swell. This continues to intensify in weeks 9 & 10. The grower noticed the sweet and fruity aroma was becoming increasingly pungent and enticing. Hints of sweet Blueberry were evident too – Auto Blueberry was used in the breeding process.
THC levels are reassuringly high and deliver a powerful and sedating effect. It’s a joyful and calming experience, perfect for kicking back after a busy day. As any Cookies aficionado will tell you it’s more than just the THC levels. The mouth-watering array of sweet and skunky flavours adds to the experience.
