2018 CLOSET GROW – BUDDHA HAZE - Autoflower (2018) Growing under 2 - 300W Bloomspect LEDS, 1 - 135W BlackStar UFO LED, and 3 - 4' T5 HO (early veg & side-lighting during flower). Added a passive intake system that consists of a Suncourt 8" ThruWall Exhaust Fan (high in closet) and a 8" x 12" Air Intake Grille (low in closet). Also added a Holmes Twin Window Fan with Comfort Control Thermostat that has both intake and exhaust options for each fan. This set up will keep temperature and CO2 levels consistent. Growing in 3 gallon fabric grow pots filled with 60% Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil, 30% Perlite, and 10% Worm Castings. For waterings, added 1/2 teaspoon of SuperThrive to 3 gallons water aerated/bubbled for 24-48 hours. No other nutrients will be added until week 3. BUDDHA HAZE Buddha Haze is an 85% sativa strain bred by Big Buddha Seeds. Parented by Amnesia Haze and Manga Rosa, Buddha Haze offers a complex aroma that blends together sweet mango and spice. Its upbeat, energetic buzz is perfect for those days that require unencumbered focus and attention. Genetics: Amnesia Haze and Magna Rosa (90% Sativa / 10% Indica) THC content has been measured between 15% and 26% Flowering Time: 70 – 80 days LEAFLY Reviews - 4.5 / 5 2nd Place Spannabis Champions Cup Barcelona Seed Company - Big Buddha

Day 12 of organic grow and all is well. Seemed to have dialed in the conditions and able to keep good air movement, CO2 levels, and consistent temperatures/humidity with the ThruWall Closet Fan (Model TW108 ), and the Holmes Twin Exhaust/Intake Fan (Model HAWF-2041). Humidity is maintained with a Lovoit 6L Ultrasonic Programmable Cool Mist Humidifier (Model# LV600HH). Added a SCROG screen (just a cargo net) and bought the Sample Pack of organic nutrients from Nectar for the Gods (just pay shipping and they will send you the sample nutrients - check out the website). People say their line of nutrients make the buds smell and taste like no other! I have always been an organic Earth Juice nutrient guy, so I am going to experiment with combining the two. Lights are on 24/0 and she has tight internodal spacing with good vertical growth. Room that closet is in is beginning to smell skunky at times, and like diesel at other times. Will begin light organic nutrients with next watering. If you made it this far, please check out my other autoflower grows. Day 13 - Watered today with very low strength nutrients added. - Zannabis7

Day 20 – The Buddha Haze Autoflower (plant #1) grow continues to thrive in the current closet grow setup. She has doubled in height since the beginning of week 2. Have not added any nutrients other than Recharge (living soil microbe), Cal/Mag, and SuperThrive. Have been watering approximately every 3-4 days. She is showing her white pistols and readying to flower. Side shoots are becoming abundant and will begin some leaf tucking in the coming week to expose these side shoots to more light, create more fully developed bud sites, and to promote a more even canopy. - Zannabis7

Day 21 - Set up an automatic watering/feeding system so that plants can be easily watered with SCROG net in place. This will also water/feed plants while traveling or away for longer durations. The watering system can be found on Amazon - STOH Micro Automatic Drip Irrigation Kit/Self Watering System with 30-Day Timer. Link follows: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0743F4532/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Day 22 – Fed with Nectar for the Gods nutrients, Recharge (soil microbes), and SuperThrive. Aerated the mix with aquarium air pump (two stones) for approximately 15 minutes prior to feed. Day 23–Looking healthy enough to begin some defoliation and leaf tucking. Defoliation to remove some of the fan leaves to allow for some air movement/circulation as plant had such tight internodal spacing. Leaf tucking to assist with side flower exposure. Will start bending the main stem under the SCROG net in the coming days. Day 26 - Fed with the same Nectar of the Gods based regimen but increased the Herculean Harvest. Added Bloom Khaos and a 1/2 teaspoon Recharge. Continued with some leaf tucking to expose flower sites. - Zannabis7

Day 28 – The Buddha Haze Auto continues to stretch big time as she has nearly doubled in height since last week (must be the sativa dominant strain). She has really started to flower and push the side shoots with numerous flower/bud sites to attend to. Have continued with some minor leaf tucking and have been directing the side branches into different squares of the SCROG net in an attempt to create a fairly even canopy. Added a G8LED 90 Watt Red Flower Booster UFO light to the closet to assist with the flowering stage. Lowered the 300 Watt Bloomspect LEDs and angled them slightly to mix with the two UFO (red) flowering LEDs. Continuing to feed the Nectar of the Gods nutrients mixed with Recharge (soil microbes) and aerated with aquarium air pump (two stones) for approximately 15 minutes prior to feed. She is starting to drink more and have been watering/feeding approximately every 3 days. – Zannabis7 Day 29 - Fed Nectar of the Gods nutrients mixed with Recharge (soil microbes) and aerated with aquarium air pump (two stones) for approximately 15 minutes prior to feed. - Zannabis7 Day 31 - Starting to drink more. Light feeding of straight Recharge today. - Zannabis7 Day 33 - Did a Nectar for the Gods flush with 6 tsp Herculean Harvest added to one gallon of water pH'ed at 6.2. The plants are loving the organic CALCIUM based nutrients. Will update to week 6 tomorrow (02/04/2017) - Zannabis7

Day 35 – The Buddha Haze I is stacking on some killer looking flowers and the pistols, frost, and trichomes are starting to develop nicely. She continues to stretch as she has gained 6" in vertical height since last week. Continuing to feed the Nectar for the Gods nutrients and have added Triton’s Trawl (liquid fishbone meal that is rich in calcium from fish cartilage and is designed to deliver flavor, aroma and color to the finished product) and Aphrodite’s Extraction (a rich blend of sucrose, fructose, chelated nutrients, and organic acids necessary for enzymatic activity, and a complete balance of vitamins A, C, D, E, B1, B6 and B12, which are essential to a plants’ biological growth processes). These two additions are known to increases oil, resin, frost, and terpene production in flower. Continuing to add Recharge as a soil amendment to establish colonies of beneficial fungal and bacterial microbes. Temperatures are consistently between 74° - 78° and humidity between 30% - 45%. Soil pH is 6.5 and PPMs at 321 which is perfect for the Nectar for the Gods nutrient line. Added a homemade Co2 generator to boost carbon dioxide levels and to improve overall plant growth and health. – Zannabis7 Day 36 - Fed the Nectar of the Gods nutrients as indicated above and in photo. Added Recharge to the nutrient mix for microbes and to aid in the breakdown and uptake of nutrients. - Zannabis7 Day 39 - Fed the Nectar of the Gods nutrients as indicated above and in photo. Again added Recharge to the nutrient mix for microbes and to aid in the breakdown and uptake of nutrients. Also did some very light defoliation and more leaf tucking to expose flower sites - Zannabis7

Day 42 – The Buddha Haze 1 may end up being the top weight producer the way it is looking now. She has lots of flower sites and some killer colas stacking up. Not gaining much in vertical growth anymore but the trichomes are becoming abundant and thick. Continuing to feed the Nectar for the Gods calcium based nutrients along with Recharge. She's a true beauty and if you haven't tried growing Big Buddha Seeds - they have some great genetics! Big Buddha Seeds: https://bigbuddhaseeds.com/ Temperatures are consistently between 74° - 78° and humidity between 30% - 40%.

Day 50 – The Buddha Haze I is really frosting up nicely. She is truly stacking on the flowers, the pistols, and the trichomes. Her vertical growth is slowly coming to an end and she is pushing her energy into the flower development. The Big Buddha Seed company genetics are wonderful!

Temperatures are consistently between 74° - 78° and humidity between 30% - 40%.
