Super Silver Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) — Flower Week 7 (Recovery) Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Super Silver Haze Breeder: Zamnesia Seeds Stage: Flower — Week 7 (recovery after localized bud rot) Pots/Medium: 11 L fabric pots — living super soil with Aptus pellets and Plagron support Watering: Hand watering; currently water only (see science below) Lights: F.O.G. Black Series 600W + ThinkGrow ICL-300 (inner canopy) + Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W Control & Monitoring: TrolMaster Hydro-X/Tent-X + WCS substrate sensors Air exchange: Dual 6” filtered exhausts + filtered intake; oscillating fans moving canopy air Current environment (example): day ~29–31 °C, night ~24–26 °C, RH mid 50s–60s, CO₂ ~700 ppm ⸻ Quick recap — seed to the present moment • Germination & early veg: 3/3 germinated via Cannakan; strong, even starts. • Transplant: Into 11 L fabric pots with a super soil base inoculated with Aptus Mycor/Micro mixes and buffered for pH stability. • Veg: Compact, steady growth; conservative feeding with Aptus starter lineup. • Early flower: Fast flower transition, pistils and bud sites stacking quickly. Plagron trio (Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation) + Aptus boosters used to enhance bloom development. • Bud rot event: Localized Botrytis found inside one cola; removed quickly and thoroughly. Loss minimal. Immediate steps taken (see below). • Recovery week (this report): Plants responding strongly — dense colas, heavy frosting, explosive aroma. We moved temporarily to water-only feed to stabilize the root zone and let the soil biology drive nutrition. ⸻ What happened and how we dealt with it 1. Detection: Small dark spot discovered deep inside a dense cola. Because rot often starts inside dense clusters, early detection is key. 2. Immediate action: Removed the affected flowers and any suspicious material. Cut generously around infected tissue to avoid leaving spores. Placed waste in sealed bags and removed from the growroom. 3. Sanitation: Cleaned tools, wiped surfaces, checked fans and filters for dust pockets, and increased canopy airflow. 4. Environment adjustments: Increased air movement across and through the canopy; checked extraction; planned AC installation to lower day temps and stabilize RH. 5. Observation & patience: Kept strict daily inspections for any new spots; let plants recover without additional heavy nutrient pushes. Result: the loss was minimal, the rest of the canopy stayed healthy, and the plants rebounded quickly. Dense, frosty colas and an incredibly strong smell are the signs they are back on track. ⸻ Why “water only” right now — the science, explained simply We moved to water-only feeds for a short, strategic period. That decision is conservative and backed by three practical goals: 1. Reduce salt and nutrient spikes: After stress and after tissue removal, roots can be sensitive. Water-only flushes prevent sudden EC spikes that can further stress roots. Salt buildup can inhibit water uptake (osmotic stress); clean water restores osmotic balance. 2. Let the soil biology work: You’re growing in a living super soil with Aptus pellets and biological inoculants. Microbes mineralize nutrients slowly and steadily. When plants are stressed, microbial mineralization becomes more important than high-concentration liquid feeds. Water-only gives beneficial microbes a stable environment to supply what the plant needs. 3. Avoid overstimulating lush growth: At late flower, you want carbohydrate partitioning to favor flower filling and resin production, not new vegetative pushes. Limiting NPK pulses prevents a late vegetative response and encourages the plant to allocate sugars to trichome and calyx growth. Practical note: “Water only” does not mean nutrient-starvation. Your living soil still releases NPK and trace elements. Monitor substrate EC (WCS) and plant appearance; if deficiency signs persist for more than a week, reintroduce a light, balanced feed. ⸻ The gear doing the heavy lifting — why the ICL-300 inner canopy lights matter • ThinkGrow ICL-300 (inner canopy lights): These deliver targeted, diffuse light deeper into the canopy. For dense sativas or hybrids that set flowers lower on the plant, inner-canopy LEDs reduce shading and encourage even bud set on lower nodes. They also reduce the need to strip leaves to reach light—so you can preserve biology and microclimate. • F.O.G. Black Series & Lumatek: Provide high PPFD to the top canopy for strong photosynthesis and sugar production. The combination of powerful top light + targeted inner lights = even canopy carbon distribution and more uniformly fat colas. • TrolMaster + WCS: Real-time data on substrate moisture and EC lets you water by need (you’re already using ~19–25% dryness triggers), which prevents both saturation pockets that encourage rot and drought that stresses plants. • Airflow & filtration: Dual exhausts and oscillating fans keep air moving; carbon filters keep air clean. This is essential to lower local humidity around flowers and prevent new rot pockets. All gear together creates a system: light for sugar, airflow for dryness, monitoring for precision, and soil biology for nutrition. ⸻ Observations this week • Colas: Thickening, dense, frosty. Trichome production visible even with the naked eye. • Aroma: Extremely potent — strong typical Super Silver Haze profile developing (citrus/citrus-haze + spicy/earthy back-notes), likely driven by terpene expression and warm room temps. • Leaves: Minor spotting in places earlier; after CalMag adjustments and water-only period, new growth is healthy and vibrant. • Root zone: Very active — roots visible through fabric, good white root color where checked. ⸻ Risks to watch and mitigation steps (practical, daily checklist) • Risk: Secondary rot pockets — Mitigation: daily inspection, move a small headlamp into canopy to view internals, keep oscillating fans moving air between bud layers. • Risk: High night humidity with cooler temps — Mitigation: install AC / run dehumidifier at night, maintain extraction during lights-off. • Risk: Support failure from heavy colas — Mitigation: pre-position soft ties / netting to support colas now before they get heavy. • Risk: Late-flower nutrient imbalance — Mitigation: watch leaf tips/edges for burn or deficiency. If signs appear, use small, dilute corrective feeds rather than heavy dosages. ⸻ What to expect in the next 1–3 weeks • Short term (next 7 days): Continued fattening of calyxes, sustained trichome increase, aroma intensifies. Plants will drink more as flowers bulk. Keep water-only until the canopy is stable and substrate EC is within your target range. • Mid term (weeks 2–3 from now): Major bulk phase — colas will gain weight and density. Trichomes will move from clear → cloudy (start of potency peak). Expect more resin and heavier terpene bouquet. • Near harvest planning: Start planning drying/curing space and harvest timeline once trichome clouding reaches your target (we’ll plan this together when the time approaches). Also plan to stagger harvests if colas mature at different rates. ⸻ Short educational sidebar — why trichomes explode now (brief) Late flower is all about sugar allocation and secondary metabolism. With high light, steady CO₂, and stable root nutrition, plants convert energy into: • Calyx growth (mass) — the physical body of the bud • Trichome production (resin glands) — metabolically expensive, but essential for protection and reproduction; trichomes store terpenes and cannabinoids which act as plant defense and pollinator signals in nature The combination of your lighting, living soil biology, and current conservative feeding strategy drives both mass and resin production. ⸻ Final practical tips for the diary entry • Post a short video walk-through of the canopy with commentary pointing to the saved areas vs. new growth — that tells the recovery story visually. • Photograph a closeup of a supported, heavy cola to show density and resin. • Note the date of the rot removal and actions taken in the GrowDiaries log — that makes the journal useful for other growers and for troubleshooting later runs. • Keep a small “harvest box” ready: sanitized scissors, nets, gloves, labeled trays — you’ll want them when the time comes. ⸻ Gratitude and perspective we acted fast, used sound horticultural judgment, and let biology and environment do their work. That combination saved the run. Super Silver Haze is responding like a champion — dense, frosty, and unapologetically aromatic.

It's been a great week for the seedlings! They've really taken off and are looking strong. I'm planning to transplant them into larger pots in the next few days, so next week's photos should show some impressive growth. I'm so excited to see how they thrive in their new homes! I've been giving them distilled water from the start, and I'm still doing that, but I just started adding 10 milliliters of Fox Farm Big Bloom and 1 milliliter of Fox Farm Grow Big. All of the seedlings are doing really well, and there's not really any visible difference between all the ten strains. I started all ten packs of each strain and kept all the best seedlings, so that's why they're all doing so well.

Can’t wait to see the quality of hash!

Semana 3 Prefloracion. Día 55(29/08): Segundo día de la 3 semana de floración, entramos con algunas complicaciones, o eso creimos, aparentemente no fue nada grave. Aun asi por el momento no voy a fertilizar con monster bloom. Ya va a tocar. Día 58(01/09): Ayer regue con Melaza, y los mejores resultados de Abby. Me decidi a usar el monster bloom.

Easy strain to grow, didn't stretch much and yielded good for a cookie. Frosty REALLY dense buds fragrant buds. Really good. 🙏: 1:

Had to defoliate again in week 5 day 32 so far we defoliated 3 times , day 19, day 26, and day 32. Start of week 6, this next 2 weeks the plants should triple in size and start crowning,and all defoliation are done.

Day 36, 22nd of October 2020: Hi there! All cool she is going crazy.... After the 2 videos the first pictures before topping. I have topped her 6x.... 6 branches and the rest pictures shows her after... pretty nice little lady thirsty and growing rapidly. I tried to do more LST also to spread the branches. Everything ontomues the same way fertilization and all the things. Happy Growing.

💨

did this beautiful girl a topping, depilation, and LST, she feels good 💚

so we're a day early here, but lots to do tomorrow! but anyways they got transplanted into a flowering super soil i made for the first time making one so i'll be keeping notes and how it does. going to veg for one week in the 3 gal pots and see how they look then i'm thinking i'm going to flip them so hopefully they take right off after getting the new home. soil mixture is ** for a 30 gal of soil** 9 gal of promix organic her and veg 9 gal of cow manure compost 9 gal of vulcanite pumice 6 cups of 2-8-4 gaia green 1.5 cups of mineralized phosphate gaia green 3 cups of basalt rock dust gaia green 1 cup of glacial rock dust gaia green 5 cups of kelp meal gaia green this is all being tested for the first time so not sure this stuff might be a little to rich but we'll just have to wait and see i guess. i did use clonex mycorrhizae a tea spoon in each root ball. i was having heating issues, i first had the portable ac in the tent but it was always working to hard, so i put it outside the tent and it did a lot better. the room is now staying at 26 with the lights on, and my lights are also still plumbed into the duct work for the house so its still pumping hot air thru the house and it got hot in here today so once the light go out ill be plumbing into the window, so that should help a lot more. i was going to train the as why i put them on one side of the pot in the one gal but decided not to as i just want to see how this super soil is going to be like. i'm not wasting time training all all that other then a super crop here at some point but no tying them down as i once had in mind.

Dear diary, Week 5 completed and after a scare last week with magnesium deficiency, we were able to get it sorted and continue the mainlining. 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀 ⏰ Day 32: Gave a foliar of calmag water at 3.0ms 6.1ph during light off so it’s more gentle on the leaves followed by a regular feeding at 1.46ms 6.1ph. Still seeing some deteriorating continuing on lower leaves, so will get epsom salt tomorrow to really target magnesium and increase the calmag with 0.7ml/l in feeds going forward. ⏰ Day 33: Gave a foliar of epsom salt at 6.6g/liter(3.2EC 6.3ph)as lights went off but as I read more my ratios were off and I diluted the solution with 50% regular water. Regular feeding at 1.45ms 6.2ph was given at lights on. When inspecting the girls a few hours later they look a lot healthier already, so clearly magnesium was the issue. Will give them today to recover and if everything keeps looking good by tomorrow, I will do the next topping. If so I will have lost 5 days of progress due to the deficiency, but that’s the upside with photos I guess vs autos. ⏰ Day 34: Another foliar of epsom salt applied and feeding of 1.5l each at 1.56ms 5.8ph. A few hours later topping nr 2 done making it 4 tops each now and stripped the remaining growth. ⏰ Day 35: Did a quick check before lights off and they are praying and looking good considering the topping. Then I did a regular feeding at 1.56ms 5.5ph when lights went on. Still looking good and no continued signs of the magnesium issue. ⏰ Day 36: Regular feeding at 1.56ms 5.6ph. Girls are looking healthy and enough has grown out that I can start tying down the 4 new mains. Will probably top them again in 1-2 days if everything progresses nicely. ⏰ Day 37: Foilar of epsom given just as lights turned off followed by regular feeding at 1.61ms 5.8ph when lights turned back on. ⏰ Day 38: Regular feeding at 1.61ms 5.9ph. Topping nr 3 was also done bringing it to 8 tops each and I will do the 4th and final topping as soon as the nodes have developed a bit more. In terms of height it’s worth mentioning that one of the branches of G.C #2 escaped her binds so one of the sides is 18cm while the other matches the others in the tent more at 14cm.

The last week before harvest! I love Vanilla Latte Auto! Thank you Humboldt Seed Company for such a good genetics! I love you very much!...

Whoa another week. 07-01-2020 ( Day 116) Heat is very strong in January on this latitude. I keep the tent door open almost all the time to help ventilation. She is developing more buds from the former buds, that's waht it looks like, so if this is the way I think I had seen this befor, she would be keeping on growing new little buds from the buds that have been already formed, thus instead of packing on bud weight, she develops more biomass creating new buds and elongating the ones that we already there. Day 117 08-01-2020 Yesterday I forget to cover the tent front with the nylon layer to prevent any light leaking through the zipper and pinholes that there are all over the frontal face, the grow room is at my back, when I sit by the computer, so, the front side gets all the glow from the monitor. So I gave her a continuous long night starting at 8 pm yesterday , lights were on by 8.30 and will be off by 17. Day 119 (10-01-2020) I added 0.2g/L Boost fertilizer (High K and P) twice a week every week, until further observations or whatever. So the final mixture is 0.4 g/L Bloom and 0,2 g/L Boost, plus the other general nutrients/additives. The inlet air fan broke so I had to run to the store to get another one. I hadn't checked before (MY BAD!!) but I'm positive that it broke today. By the way, today is extremely hot! (30 ºC /86ºF) by the mid tent's height where the thermometer is) so I let the tent door open and extra ventilation (of course that microbes, spores, dust and other shit that is getting inside the grow room rampantly in the meantime). Day 111 (12/019 One thing that puzzles me is the fact that some buds are frosty but other look at bare sight, like there were no, butwith the loupe, one sees that there are in fact many of them but very tiny (I hope they'll develop a little more later). The thing is why does it look kind of a different thricome maturation?

Training has been continued. She is developing very nicely. As of today she has been switched to 12/12, as the net starts to get busy and anticipating another stretch I thought it would be time.

Great week! She quit growing finally and now she is fatting those buds. Going to get a huge yeild. Stay tuned. I'm posting a video of the rest of my babies so you guys and gals can see. All in closet. Bonus news - ILGM and Growers Choice Seeds are 110% the best. Every seed I have germinated blossomed from these 2 sellers. Great plants as you can see.

Doing great. Bottoms cleaned, waiting for a day or two to do a major defoliation. 17.11 Vast defoliation. All the bottom leaves and mids. Left around 4 top fan leaves On every branch. 19.11 Plants recovered perfectly, light is back to 100% . Unfortunately my Bluetooth app for mars hydro stopped working. Light cannot pair anymore with the app. Also irrigation is changed to vegetative crop steering.

Day 57 the plant has been growing healthy and fine but she is a slow grower . I know that most of the growers in this platform and elsewhere do defoliate and trim down all the lower branches of the plant so that the plant can concentrate all its energy into the higher bigger and better buds .and I do not do this because I drive the plants very hard with nutrients and those lower branches with small buds always give me the first sign of anything going wrong with her and that's why I leave them as a buffer zone to protect the bigger buds and that way I can push her as hard as I want. not much to mention about her thank you for reading I will continue to update have a happy grow
