Zamnesia Purple Haze Automatic

Salixi So. The seedlings are all in their final pots, and since they are all Autoflowers, I decided to put them directly in the final pot. Each pot has a small pot as a lid to increase humidity during the first few days.

Salixi growing slowly but surely. One seed didn't germinate, so I replaced it. This time it sprouted (the little seedling). I built a new lamp setup with a total equivalent of 480 watts, and it seems like the little ones are doing quite well with it at the moment. Each has its own little spotlight in the more blue spectrum.

Salixi After I treated the plants with Nemabest (nematodes against fungus gnats) 5 days ago, the flies are finally gone. I hope the growth phase continues undisturbed now. The Purple Haze Auto that I tried with a second seed looks stunted. Let's see if anything comes of that. Overall, I think everyone is doing well. In the meantime, I've switched to full spectrum.

Salixi Hmm, the last week of growth. I'm curious to see if much happens now; I can hardly imagine they're going to start flowering already. It doesn't really look like there's going to be much of a yield. I've started giving them nutrients now. So far, except for the Purple Haze, they all look pretty healthy.

Salixi The first (Amnesia Haze) is starting with the pre-flowering. I've now gotten the Compo Grow Bloom fertilizer. The next generation of fungus gnats has become active (the nematodes seem to be eating a bit slowly). Well, I hope for the best. Overall, the plants look quite healthy, let's see how it goes from here.

Salixi The buds are developing slower than hoped, but well, with the lamp (about 11,000 Lux per plant) I probably won't achieve a super result, but hey, it's my first grow. So it could have turned out much worse. I'm feeling optimistic. Maybe I'll put them outside for a few hours in the last week. However, this year we have the slug parade; they even come to the window because they think something delicious is growing there.. I'm unsure if I dare to put them outside. Well, hopefully the next grow will be with a better lamp.

Salixi This week nothing special, gradually the smell is getting stronger and you can partly notice it when you come into the house. Awesome, I love this scent. Such beautiful flowering plants that emit such a fragrance are otherwise hard to find. 😍

Salixi Everything's fine so far

Salixi By now, the apartment smells like a stoner cave when you walk in :) The first two little plants, Amnesia Haze and Pink Rozay, are showing trichomes. Blue Monster is developing an incredibly strong scent compared to the others. Pink Rozay looks absolutely beautiful in bloom and isn't holding itself back. Mango Kush is so bushy that hardly any light reaches the bottom. And the Purple Haze is three weeks behind because it was newly sown. The third attempt is currently a rather pathetic plant, but it seems like it could still turn out alright somehow. Let's see.

Salixi The smell is getting stronger, buds are getting bigger, I think everything is on a good path. Let's see what comes of it. The Purple Haze also seems to be going into pre-flowering. Amnesia Haze is making such oddly rolled leaves at the bloom, no idea if that's how it's supposed to be. The regular leaves are completely normal, though. The Pink Rozay is slowly making a really fat bud on the main cola, but there are a lot of side colas that look good too.

Salixi Amnesia Haze and Pink Rozay are only getting water now, the others will still get nutrients this week. The smell has gotten a bit stronger and is very pleasant. Amnesia Haze is getting a little less water now because the leaves are clawing, and I suspect I overdid it with the water. Still hoping the result will be somewhat good. The buds are definitely still getting bigger, and the trichomes are mostly slightly milky. I will probably harvest Pink Rozay and Amnesia next week. Let's see how the trichomes develop.

Salixi Pink Rozay and Amnesia aren't growing anymore; I'm expecting to be able to harvest them next week. The others are now in full bloom, and the smell is incredibly strong. The Purple Haze is starting to stretch as well; let's see what else comes of it. I didn't think it would develop like this. The lights were supposed to arrive today, but I doubt they'll come now. It'll probably be Monday.

Salixi So, another week has gone by. The new lights are excellent for the price. The ladies have definitely become more productive. The smell has also gotten significantly stronger. Let's see what else comes of it. Until the harvest, it will probably be at least another 14 days. For autoflowers, that's kind of a long time, but none of the plants are showing any signs of autumn yet. I think I'll give them some nutrients again.

Salixi The ladies are still thriving, but there's not much growth to see right now, and I'm waiting for the fall :) Although the buds from Blue Monster, Mango Kush, and Northern Light will probably get even more lush. So far, Mango Kush is delivering the best performance overall. Blue Monster is getting so sticky that I think it’s going to be some seriously potent weed. Northern Light is slowly heading towards fall. And Amnesia Haze already has some darker trichomes here and there, but the flowering looks like it still wants to bloom further... It's tough to judge all of this with the first grow.

Salixi So the last 4 are still there. The Northern Lights will be harvested tomorrow, the others still need a little more time, although Blue Monster is already quite far along. I'm most surprised by Mango Kush. It has really become very impressive.

Salixi So, now that the first trichomes have turned amber, it was time to harvest them, as this was supposed to be my strain for a more cerebral high, and I want to have as little couch-lock feeling as possible. Conditions were, as mentioned, very very suboptimal, but she developed super well and last but not least, she outlived me.

Salixi Yeah, she got more mature but didn't get any bigger. The trichomes were mostly milky and there were just a few amber ones. It was still a bit early, but well, she couldn't stand on her own anymore, so I decided to put her out of her misery :)

Salixi So the last two ladies are still left. Mango Kush has become very autumnal, and I expect that the trichomes will be ripe in the next few days. Purple Haze has decided to keep growing and is now developing a quite respectable bloom with the right light.

Salixi Trichome zu etwa 5% Bernsteinfarbig. Also wurde sie heute geerntet. Da ich wie gesagt in der Anfangsphase zu wenig Licht hatte war sie etwas instabil weil sie zu hoch gewachsen isr. Wurde aber dennoch so robust das sie alleine stehen konnte. Ergebnis kann sich sehen lassen. mal schauen was nach dem Trocknen übrig bleibt. habe sie natürlich jetzt noch mit Stiel gewogen, aber von den Fächerblättern befreit. Alles in allem bin ich zufrieden für meinen ersten Anbauversuch. Der Same war ein Gratisgeschenk und dafür ist das Ergebnis definitiv großartig. Danke an Zamnesia.

Salixi Trichomes showed that it was ripe for harvest. Super sticky during the precut. I cut off all the fan leaves at harvest, now it's hanging to dry.

Salixi nothing special

Salixi Insanely beautiful headbud, the most productive strain of all that I have grown. Can't wait to see what’s left after drying.

Salixi Hmmm she's taking her sweet time, but she basically consists only of flowers.

Salixi The buds are getting fatter, I didn't expect them to pull through like this and make such fat buds. After they had been struggling the whole time. I'm really curious about what kind of weed this is going to be.

Salixi She's slowly getting ripe, I think in a few more days the harvest time will have come. She has very few trichomes on the leaves compared to the other plants. So hardly any sugar leaves. Here, almost only the flower stigmas are filled with trichomes. Slowly the stigmas are becoming mostly caramel-like and the trichomes are showing a slightly darker appearance here and there, but not yet amber-colored. Overall, a very strange plant all in all. It always looked weak at the beginning and now consists almost entirely of flowers. Surprisingly, it had a real growth spurt about 4 weeks ago. I'm curious to see what comes out of it in the end. The smell isn't particularly strong right now. Overall, it is extremely different from all the other plants I've grown in this cycle. But I'm very satisfied considering this was my first grow overall. Now I hope to finally get the ordered Air Pots to start the next generation. I think this time I'll probably do quite a bit better, but who knows. She's definitely a winner type who has fought through all adversities.
