She’s doing really well.
I was gone for a week and had to improvise on watering and it worked. She's strong and starting to form small buds.
Grow:
She grows very bushy. A lot of big sugar leaves that seem to have an Indica phenotype. Zamnesia markets the seeds as "Sativa dominant", let's see how she develops. I attached some leaf pictures.
Training:
Due to the plant being so bushy, I did a defoliation session today. I don't like doing that on a plant that has developed this nicely. I cut away bigger leaves and small shoots close to the stem as they won't get enough light.
I also used clips to train the branches to grow more horizontally to divide the light. It looks ugly but does the trick. The clips are 3D printed by yours truly. Hit me up if you want the model.
Topping will have to be done, too, but the defoliation stressed me enough today so I might have another go tomorrow.
At the end of week 5, she stretched by 10cm and flowers grew a lot. Nice!
Training:
As she was in bloom at the end of week 3, I didn’t top her. Instead, thinned out the leaves and smaller flowers as well as continuous LST on branches. I want her to concentrate on the buds!
Purple Haze Auto has a very thin grow so there’s not much need for trimming.
Let’s talk Plagron:
I’ve been following protocol and must say the flowers look much bigger than they usually do at this stage. I’m very curious to see the end result.
The leaves show minimal nutrient burn but that doesn’t seem to bother growth.
Dosage is a bit tricky as I don’t need much, I mix 500ml per week.
I added some close-up pictures of the buds, so you can follow the development
Week 6 was all about the flowers. Plagron doing it’s magic, I guess
The buds have grown in size and the flowers are starting to produce resin.
The plant isn’t stretching anymore, more power for the buds.
Plagron has introduced green sensation which feels and looks funky. While Power Buds feels like your standard fertilizer , they really went all-in with the rest:
sugar royal looks like sugar syrup
Alga bloom looks (and smells) like fermented algae
Green sensation seems superhero fuel.
The buds definitely look like they’re on steroids. I’ve had 12 week olds that had bud sizes like these.
End of week 7 and we‘re getting close to harvest
No more stretching, buds are getting thick and juicy.
Leaves are starting to fall on their own, no need to trim and since it stopped stretching, no need for LST.
Plagron is doing a good job. Buds look very beautiful. The structure is dense and nicely rounded. The Alga mix is a bit smelly, especially if you don’t use all and leave it standing 😉
Zamnesia, I’m a bit disappointed with the phenotype. No purple, no smell. Is this still purple haze without these characteristics? or did most of it get lost when making it auto.
Temperature affects the colouring. My box doesn’t go below 20C at night as it’s well isolated but I expected more.
I grew mimosa in the same setup last year which produced very dark purple colours.
End of week 8 sees
- no smore stretching
- buds turning golden yellow
- faint fresh citrus smell coming from the buds (Very sweet, like lemon candy).
This is it, guys. Last week before harvest.
The buds are bulking up in size which is very nice. I added pictures. Enjoy.
REFLOWERING has started during this week,
While the buds are growing and ready to be harvested, she decided to add new flowers on top.
I was getting ready to harvest, I flushed the plant when I noticed bright white buds growing on top. It seems she's reflowering. That's a first. I'll wait with the harvest to see how she develops.
Hold Your Machetes, Growers! This Lady's Got a Surprise!
I know, I know, week 10 is supposed to be harvest time, the moment we've all been waiting for. But hold onto your hats, because my girl had other plans!
She decided to throw a MUTATION PARTY, and let me tell you, it's getting wild in the grow tent! My main cola, that beautiful, bodacious babe, decided to stretch by a whole 10cm, packing on tons of frosty white flowers. Talk about top-heavy! She's thicc with a capital T, and oh so juicy.
Now, I couldn't let all that goodness go to waste, so I carefully trimmed about 20g of the smaller buds that were ready, leaving my main cola to continue its glorious transformation. ✂️
But wait, there's more! This sassy lady also decided to turn one of her leaves into a full-blown flower. Talk about a genetic surprise! I don't know if it's the Plagron or the Zamnesia genes in her, but I've definitely never seen anything like it.
So, here's to unexpected mutations, XXL colas, and plants that keep us on our toes! Stay tuned, growers, because this is one grow diary that's about to get even more interesting.
My lady decided to shatter the whole "week 10 harvest" and instead shoot 10cm, packing new flowers whiter than a yeti's behind in a blizzard!
This genetic curveball beats me.
Do I let her keep this frosty stretch, or do I harvest and let this mutant masterpiece become a solo act
Purple Haze Auto just blew my mind (and my grow box) with its unbelievable resilience.
Let's be honest, I put this little lady through the ringer. Stress test? More like a stress vacation! All because I wanted to see if she could handle focusing all her energy into one epic bud. Well, guess what? She didn't just handle it, she thrived on it!
This Purple Haze Auto soaked up the Plagron nutrients like a champ, transforming that extra TLC into a frost-covered yeti monster of a bud! Seriously, this thing is massive. We're talking legendary proportions.
Now, the real question: how does it taste? Stay tuned, growmies! Taste test is incoming next week, and I have a feeling it's gonna be out of this world! Purple Haze Auto, you've earned a permanent spot in my grow hall of fame! ✊
Alright, growmies, buckle up for the grand finale of the Purple Haze saga! This ain't your average taste test, oh no. This is a one-way ticket to Flavourtown, with a heavily armed detour through the Trippyverse. Let's dive in!
Taste: First things first, the flavour. Imagine the sweetest, most fruity banana you've ever encountered. Now crank it to eleven. That's the Purple Haze on the tongue, a tropical firework that explodes like a supernova on your taste buds.
High: Now, hold on tight, because this is where things get seriously wild. This high hits you like a freight train to the forehead. Fast, strong, and with a decidedly trippy edge. I went in expecting your classic old-school stoner vibe, but this lady took me on a whole different adventure. "Dazed and confused" is definitely the motto here. Thoughts are slipping away like smoke signals, replaced by a whoosh of pure, unadulterated trippiness. Its intense!
Pro Tip: Don't attempt multitasking on this one. Things get intensely focused, with zero room for distractions. My vision went a little schwimmy (blurry), but hey, who needs perfect eyesight when you're this euphoric?
The Verdict: Zamnesia's Purple Haze Auto is a mind-blowing experience for seasoned smokers and newbies alike. Just be prepared for a wild ride that's as trippy as it is tasty. This strain is a true champion, and I, for one, am a converted believer!
Stay tuned for more epic grow adventures, and until next time, happy growing, growmies! High fives all around!
Yo, growmies! Harvest week just wrapped, and let me tell you, it was a miniaturized masterpiece in the making. My grow space might be cozier than a hobbit hole, but that doesn't mean I can't crank out epic buds!
This grow was all about embracing minimalism and focusing on one single, frost-dusted champion. Did I succeed? Heck yeah, I did! The main cola was a whopping 8cm across, a throne fit for a trichome king! (Though, mea culpa to all my female cultivators out there - I forgot the circumference! Which as we know makes all the difference 😏! I'll be hitting the dry room later for some official measurements).
The aroma? Think tropical fruit explosion, with a hint of banana that'll have you saying "Holy Guacamole!" (you know, they're both tropical fruits) The cure is in full swing, and my taste buds are already doing the happy dance. Just one more week until judgment day, and then it's flavor town, population: me!
Huge shoutout to Plagron for seriously upping the bud game. Those buds were thicker than a snoozing grizzly bear! Seriously impressed.
But wait, there's more! The indoor grow train keeps chugging forward. Next up on the tracks? RQS' Royal Bluematic (aka the queen of all things blueberry!). Get ready for some seriously scrumptious grow diary content coming your way next week!
And let's not forget the summer grow extravaganza! This year, we've got the legendary crews at Ganja Farmers and Super Sativa Seed Club sponsoring the whole shebang. It's gonna be a sativa showdown for the ages, and you won't want to miss a single minute!
Stay tuned, growmies! I'll be back with more info, Purple Haze Auto taste test results, and enough bud pics to make your screen drool. Happy growing!

You Saved My Grow From a B-Movie Nightmare, Grow Gods!
Massive thanks to everyone who chimed in with advice! Especially you, @mOuse, for being the green thumb hero who first mentioned light bleaching.
Listen, I've never encountered this kind of frostbite-looking situation outdoors. Guess this whole indoor grow tent thing has a steeper learning curve than I thought!
I'm definitely gonna dig into this light situation and make sure my future grows are real monster colas, not victims of a low-budget horror flick. Thanks to you all, my friends, this is one plot twist with a happy ending! 👊😍
That’s one gorgeous kitty 😻
I honestly just came to see if there were more pictures of this cat!
Plant looks a bit scraggly, but never judge a book by its cover 😸
What’s she smoke like? Has she got that distinct Haze taste?
@PersonalSmok3s, Cat loved it. Smoke is superb. Will update now to finalise this. The scraggly looks stems from the small growbox. I use it to test strains for my outdoor grow. This one didnt make the cut this year. But will definitely grow in 2025
