Die Woche war sehr gut, ich habe am 21.7. Entlaubt und das hat den Pflanzen sehr gut getahn erst recht die genetisch fehlerhaften Pflanzen haben das gut angenommen. Dann habe ich das erste mal gedüngt, weniger als hersteller Angaben und mit Madame Grows pre flower booster mal sehen was der kann wird 2 bis 3 mal in der vor Blüte benutzt...mal sehen😎 The week was very good, I have on 21.7. And that has done the plants very well, especially the genetically defective plants have accepted this well. Then I fertilized the first time, less than manufacturer information and with Madame Grows pre flower booster let's see what it can be used 2 to 3 times in the pre-flower... let's see😎

Super Silver Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) – Flower Week 5 ⸻ 🌿 Quick Recap – From Seed to Week 5 Flower • Week 1 Flower: Fast transition—pistils everywhere, healthy roots, compact growth. • Week 2 Flower: Morphology shift in full swing; feeding adjusted with Top Booster and Plagron trio (Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation). • Week 3 Flower: Light defoliation to open structure. Plants ~120 cm, hybrid leaf traits, strong root activity. • Week 4 Flower: Bud stacking accelerated, pistils thickening, recipe simplified (soil NPK carrying, boosters fine-tuning). • Week 5 Flower (current): Buds swelling, pistils everywhere, resin heads sparkling. Slight leaf spotting observed—likely Ca/Mg imbalance. Adjusted by reintroducing Aptus All-In-One Liquid for a nutrient push and better balance. ⸻ 🌱 Plant Development Both phenos continue to mirror each other, tight internodes, balanced structure, and lush hybrid leaves. The buds are swelling rapidly, calyxes stacking beautifully, and pistils are thick and lively. The resin layer is already visible, giving a frosty shimmer that promises density and potency in the weeks ahead. A few spots appeared on lower and mid leaves—most likely a calcium/magnesium issue. To counter, we increased nutritional support by bringing Aptus All-In-One Liquid back into the mix, ensuring a complete and balanced NPK profile while keeping boosters steady. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition (Week 5) • Aptus Regulator – micronutrient transport, cell wall integrity • Aptus CalMag Boost – raising Ca/Mg levels to address leaf spotting • Aptus All-In-One Liquid – full-spectrum NPK support reintroduced this week • Plagron Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation – continuing to enhance flower development, aroma, and resin formation Soil still provides a strong nutritional backbone, but this week’s adjustments help stabilize the balance and support heavy bud development. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Conditions • Day Temp: ~29–30°C • Night Temp: ~25°C • Humidity: ~65% • VPD: ~1.3–1.4 kPa • CO₂: ~700 ppm • Watering: ~1.5–2L per plant/day, at ~20% soil dryness • Soil EC: ~2.0 • Light Intensity: 760–780 PPFD across canopy AC installation is still pending, so temps are slightly higher than ideal, but plants remain vigorous and unstressed. ⸻ ✨ Special Focus: Trichomes – Nature’s Treasure Houses At Week 5, trichomes are beginning to form in visible density, and this is a great moment to explore what they are and why they matter. 🔬 What Are Trichomes? Trichomes are microscopic, glandular outgrowths on cannabis flowers and leaves. They are resin factories—producing cannabinoids (THC, CBD, CBG, etc.), terpenes (aromatic oils), and flavonoids (pigments and antioxidants). 🌸 Cannabinoids • THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol): Primary psychoactive compound; euphoric, creative, uplifting. • CBD (Cannabidiol): Non-psychoactive, soothing, anti-inflammatory, balancing. • Others: CBG, CBC, THCV—each contributing unique effects and therapeutic potential. 🌺 Terpenes Aromatic molecules giving cannabis its smell and flavor profile. Examples: • Myrcene: Earthy, musky, sedative qualities • Limonene: Citrus, uplifting, mood-enhancing • Pinene: Piney, sharp, potentially focus-enhancing These terpenes modulate the effects of cannabinoids in the entourage effect. 🎨 Flavonoids Less talked about, but flavonoids contribute to color, taste, and antioxidant activity. They can influence the final bouquet and even the therapeutic properties of the plant. 🌌 Why They Matter Now At Week 5, trichomes are initiating en masse, but they are still clear and immature. As the weeks progress, they’ll cloud, then amber, signaling ripeness. Monitoring trichomes with a loupe is the most reliable way to judge harvest time, not just pistils. ⸻ 🎛️ Gear & Setup • Lighting: Future of Grow Black Series 600W, ThinkGrow ICL-300 LEDs, and Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W—all synced under TrolMaster for environmental control. • Airflow: Dual 6” extraction with carbon filters (TrolMaster Aerofan + Spider Farmer), controlled separately for redundancy. • Monitoring: TrolMaster Tent-X + WCS substrate sensor—tracking EC, moisture, and real-time root zone conditions. ⸻ 🌿 Outlook The girls are in their prime flowering momentum. With nutrients adjusted and trichomes stacking, the coming weeks should bring bulk, aroma, and resin explosion. This is where the legendary Super Silver Haze genetics (Skunk x Northern Lights x Haze) begin to show their pedigree—old-school power, modern stability.

Another successful week plants aren't dead. Did some more defoliation this week to allow light to penetrate the smaller colas at the bottom of the canopy, still haven't found a feeding schedule that works for me, going to cut my feedings in half next week because I'm starting to see some minor nute burn on the leaf tips. Good week though I'm pleased with it onto week 10/week 5 of flower!

Took as much of the lower growth of the two plants that I can reach. I think I did a pretty good job for my first time. Cant wait to see how she focuses the energy on the canopy. The canopy itself is within 3-4 inches of each top with each getting a lot of light. I think the last of the pre flower stretch is over but if it isnt im still good with the second scrog. Pulled the two humidifiers and added a small humidifier as well as a 350 sq ft DeHum. Hoping to really keep the humidity low for her to get really frosty. Thanks for checking out the grow! Any comments, or advice is always welcome! 😁

Started one seed of Cherry Bomb popped in 48 hours. The seedling took off from there. I just used tap water and paper towel to germinate. We are at 7 days today, and she is looking good. Picked up a 32x32x63 tent for this grow. Currently I have her in my aero garden which has done wonders for me, and my hydro set up. As she grows I will move her into a 5 gal bucket for hydro. We will use a 450w viparspectra LED for this grow. I am using a small amount of nutes in the reservoir, as always I am using general hrdroponics flora trio cal mag, and silica.

Vegetative week 1 --> First week is end 😁💪 I trasplanted the ladies the first day of the week. After trasplanted I sprayed homogeneously each one of the pots with 2Lt of 6.5 pH water (with room temperature). The healthy and beautiful one I put in the 11 Lt fibric pot of Zamnesia and the other in the 9.5 Lt plastic pot. The plants stretch a littel bit in the first days and when they start developing the second leaves they stop stretching. The fifth day of the week the soil dry out and i sprayed them with 1Lt of 6.5 pH water (with room temperature) for every plant. In conclusion of this week, the Blueberry #2 look healty and she start to grow bigger. The Blueberry #1 she look a littel bit stressed and grow a littel bit slowly compared to Blueberry #2(she probably got a little stressed with the transplant), but continues to grow without problems . Temperature grow box---> 21-25 °C Umidity grow box ---> 45 - 55 % Total water of the week ---> 3 Lt/plant

09/16: Fed 30/70 blend of Veg to Bloom to all the photos. Noticed PM on True OG. Didn't notice yet but my OBW (and some other autos) also had a bad PM infection. Light defoliation and trimming 09/21: More PM found. Again light defoliation and trimming. Aphids also found on some of the autos.

Week 10. I am still trying to get the ladies back on track, as my Ph meter was off a bit. I re calibrated and they should be good to go from here on out. The toads are starting to pack on weight and when I open up the tent it smells very tropical. Super frosty christmas tree structure. RH is around 50-52%. Temps around 73-78 F. Lights cranked up to 70-75% (500ish true watts) They're hungry and I'll feed them good.

We've made it to week 3! (10/12/20) I'm very happy with how the girls are going, they have definitely put in a HUGE amount of work over the past 7 days. Plants 3 & 8 are very similar(extremely fat leaves & extra bushy) Plants 1 & 5 are similar (smaller phenos reacting to nutes slightly differently) & Plants 2, 4, 6 & 7 seem to be a cross between the previously mentioned phenos(not too small and not too big/bushy & reacting to nutes fine) Feel free to compare Week 1, 2 & 3 to see the differences. Nutes are staying the same this week, although I will be spacing feedings out a little bit further(18 hours-ish), as well as feeding straight PH'd water once a fortnight. I am contemplating hooking my simple drip-to-waste irrigation system up, although the girls are pretty close to the medium still and the halos sit 5-10cm above the medium, meaning fan leaves would be drooping onto the wet halos, so I'll give it another week and see how they're doing :) Update 11/12/20 - day 22 The girls have beefed up quite a bit over the last 24 hours, I'm really looking forward to seeing a stretch soon :) No feeding today & will water plain ph'd water tomorrow. Update 12/12/20 - day 23 Gave the girls straight ph'd water today with little run off. Veg growth is really starting to boom now, looking forward to seeing where this grow goes! I'm gladly accepting any tips or tricks, as I'm still only a beginner to indoors. Update 13/12/20 - day 24 Girls are looking great today, not much to report. They didn't get a feed or watering today as the medium was still wet after a pure watering yesterday. Update 14/12/20 - day 25 There's been a big increase in growth over the past 24 hours. All the girls besides the 2 smaller phenos look 100% happy, the smaller ones have looked a little weird since day 1(Weird as in colour of the fan leaves look deficient of something, but I'm not sure what. The girls will be getting a full feeding today. There's still no signs of sex but they are feminised seeds. Update 15/12/20 - day 26 Girls are looking happy today. Temps are back to normal after a heat wave in my city(its only going to get hotter from here on out). No feeding/watering today, pots are heavy/wet enough. Started using iphone for photos now, my only lens for my DSLR is useless for most grow related photos. I will upgrade my lens before next grow. I received my new silenced fan today! I couldnt be any happier :) It is a silenced Sigilventus SE-A150J, which I have set-up with a brand new Can-lite carbon filter. I went from a rocket loud eBay fan to a completely silent inline EC fan :D I hope the girls like the silence! Update 16/12/20 - day 27 The girls are continuing to boom! and I'm over the moon about it :D I gave them a full feeding today. I have seen white pistils coming out of calyx's on most of the girls, so i'm hoping they start to flower soon. I'm having weird issues with my humidity, it seems to be fine at 40-50% for 70% of the day, but the remaing 30% of the day it goes up to 60-65%. Temps stay the same in the 5x5 tent, I have ducted air-con in the house which is on most of the day. Thanks for viewing! :)

Unfortunately I lost some of my timelapse footage and the harvest shots of the plants hanging, so I only have the week 10 pictures left.📸 Still, this run with Ztrawberriez Auto was smooth and very enjoyable.🌿💚 All three plants finished in about 11 weeks from seed to harvest. The aroma and taste came out pretty much the same across the whole run, sweet, fruity with that little pink pepper twist, a really unique profile.🍓 #1 was the biggest and most compact of the three, with very dense, stacked flowers.💪🔥 #2 and #3 produced slightly fluffier buds, but still frosty, aromatic and with great bag appeal.🌸 I gave them all 48 hours of darkness before chop, then trimmed and hung them up. After 9 full days of drying they were ready for trimming and went into jars for curing. The final result: beautiful, resinous flowers, consistent in flavor, with some variation in bud structure but overall great quality 😍. Even without the missing footage, this run left me more than happy 🌟🌿

Hey Cannafam, Ahhhh Britiah summertime has come back this week which means rain, shes had a few days of it this week including today and humidity is nearly at 100%. 🤐 Theres more rain next week with some dry periods but its not looking great weather wise, esentially im worried about this gal rotting like my previous attempts and if that happens i will not only cry but there will also be emotional outbursts! Shes had one feed this week ive been shaking her each time after the rain stops. Buds are building slowly and that moody nearly black beautiful purple is spreading up her main column 💜 Ive been praying to which ever diety is in charge of purple buds as im gonna need an element of luck for deliverance 🤞🤞🤞 Thats all from me for now, thanks for stopping by 😊✌️
