🌿 Week 2 Flower – Super Silver Haze Queens by Zamnesia Two weeks into flower, and the Super Silver Haze girls are showing us why they carry the weight of legend. Despite a week where photos were few, the video walkthrough tells the story: the tent is alive, the room is humming, and the girls are thriving. Their transition into bloom is unmistakable, pistils, morphology shifts, and that unmistakable “flowering energy” filling the air. ✨ Recap of the Journey So Far From the start, these seeds germinated strong, three for three. Early veg was compact and stable, surprisingly stress-free for haze genetics. Transplanting into 11L Zamnesia fabric pots with a tailored Aptus soil mix gave roots the space and nutrients to explode. Week after week, they’ve grown strong under a spectrum of full power LEDs, with an environment tuned by hand and tech alike. Now in flower, they carry the old-school spirit of Super Silver Haze, a strain with cups, history, and heavy nostalgia, now represented by Zamnesia, but forever rooted in the haze heritage. This isn’t just another grow. It’s a living tribute. 🌱 Feeding Recipe This Week The girls are feeling the switch from Start Booster to Top Booster (0.25 ml/L), and the difference shows. Morphology is shifting beautifully. On top of that, we’re layering in some Plagron support — a little experiment to push the expression further: • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml/L • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml/L • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml/L The Aptus All-In-One Liquid is staying aside for now, since the pellets in the soil are still doing their job beautifully. EC in the soil is ~2.0, with incoming solution at ~0.6. pH around 6.1. Watering is based on substrate moisture, waiting until ~19–20% dryness before irrigation. Average uptake: 1.5–2L per day. 🌡️ Environmental Conditions • Room Temp: Peaks up to 34°C (a bit higher than ideal, AC unit arriving soon!) • Humidity: 50–70% depending on the day • VPD: ~1.8–1.9 (not perfect, but plants are handling it well) • CO₂: ~700 ppm • Soil Temp: 25°C • PPFD: 760–780 μmol/m²/s across canopy zones ⚙️ Gear & Ecosystem The grow room is evolving into a proper ecosystem: • Lights: • ThinkGrow Model on and ICL-300 LEDs • Future of Grow Black Series 600W • Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W Together delivering a full, balanced spectrum across the 8x8 tent. • Airflow & Extraction: • 2 × 6-inch extractors (Trolmaster Aerofan + Spider Farmer) with carbon filters. • Trolmaster unit fully integrated, Spider Farmer on its GGS controller. • Automation: • The Trolmaster WCS substrate sensor is a game-changer — giving live readings of soil EC, pH, and moisture. • Tent-X brain keeps everything connected, making hand-watering smarter and data-driven. 🌼 The Girls This Week Compact, stable, symmetrical, both phenos are tracking almost identically. Pistils are pushing fast, leaves are deep green, internodes are filling with energy. It feels like they’re already a week ahead, and yet, they’re right on schedule. 🐝 A Moment for the Bees This week, alongside the plants, we pause to thank the bees. A photo of one busy bee pollinating a flower reminds us: without these tiny workers, there would be no flowers, no fruits, no life as we know it. In the fairytale of the growroom, the lights are the sun, the soil is the earth, and the bees are the quiet guardians of the cycle. May we never forget how important they are. 🙏 Closing Thoughts Week 2 flower, and already the tent is bursting with energy. Genetics this stable, this historic, deserve respect. The environment isn’t perfect, temps and humidity will improve once the AC kicks in, but the girls don’t seem to mind. They’re thriving, and the journey is only just beginning. To the growers, the sponsors, the community, the lovers and the haters alike — thank you. You make the journey worth sharing.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 P.S.- Why These Plagron Additives? – A Deep Dive I’ve decided to complement the Aptus base with three Plagron boosters. Each one has its own role in the flowering process, and together they form a very balanced support system for the Mango Kush ladies. 🌸 Power Buds (1 ml/L) • Purpose: Early flowering stimulator • What it does: Power Buds encourages the plant to initiate bud development faster. It shortens the “transition phase” from veg into bloom, helping flowers form sooner and more consistently across the canopy. • Why now: We’re in Week 2 Flower, the exact point where we want to signal the plants: “It’s time to build flowers.” Power Buds sends that hormonal nudge. ⸻ 🍯 Sugar Royal (1 ml/L) • Purpose: Enhances resin, aroma, and stress resistance • What it does: Sugar Royal contains amino acids that stimulate the plant to produce more chlorophyll and secondary metabolites. In plain terms: richer terpene profile, stickier resin, stronger smell, deeper taste. • Extra benefit: It also reduces stress from heat or drought, very useful right now since our temps have been spiking up to 34°C. • Why now: As stretch continues, plants need to stay strong and not waste energy on stress. Sugar Royal helps them thrive despite less-than-ideal VPD. ⸻ 💎 Green Sensation (1 ml/L) • Purpose: All-in-one bloom enhancer for the second half of flower • What it does: Green Sensation is a powerful 4-in-1 booster that improves: • Flowering: denser, heavier buds • Resin production: frostier flowers • Nutrient uptake: more efficient feeding • Soil health: stimulates beneficial microbial activity • Why now: Even though it shines brightest in late flower, starting early allows the soil ecosystem and plant metabolism to adapt gradually. By the time we hit peak bloom, the system is fully primed. ⸻ 🌱 How They Work Together • Power Buds → Kickstarts flower sites • Sugar Royal → Enhances resilience + resin quality • Green Sensation → Boosts density and overall flower performance The trio works like a team of specialists: one accelerates the start, one polishes the quality, and one pushes yield potential. Combined with the Aptus base (Regulator for strength, CalMag Boost for structure, Top Booster for bloom push), it’s a balanced, experimental, but very promising recipe. 💚 Growers love to all 💚

October is ending and her days are numbered. I can’t tell if it’s a potassium deficiency or just the fade so I gave one final tea. I’m loving the purple hues on this particular phenotype. Pests have reduced drastically when u spray off the plant with plain water in the early morning sun at least once a week. Chopped on September 30th.This has been a great run and I can’t wait to grow this cultivar again.

This is the July 13th update: So far Indoors is doing much better than outdoors. I expect a much more significant yield from the indoor ladies. I do see more trichome development on the outdoor girls, but the bud development is kind of loose and airy. I hope they taste good!

Hello guys😍😍 We have reached the 5th week of flowering. The plants are almost done with their longitudinal growth and most of the plant is focused on buds. I used overdrive fertilizer this week. The smell of the buds has increased a lot. And the buds have a stronger smell than the mother (cakes n cream) and give off a stronger OG smell😍 Because I increased the temperature difference between night and day, the color of the buds started to change. Thanks for commenting🙏 "farah4weed"

Not a lot to update the seedlings have came up out the soil at this point they are still to small to tell any visible differences. I started all the seeds from all 10 packs and and I put 26 of them in soil I now have about 20 of them left I still have atleast one left if every strain. I just kept the 20 plants that all started off at the same time it’s so much easier when there is not some plants behind from the rip. In a few days I will pick out the best one from each of the 10 strains and toss the rest so sad there is a plant count here.

m hoping they grow well this week. but I feel that the week of painting here in the room affected my girls. They had the ventilation turned off in addition to the smell and gases from the paints that took a week to come out. pound Cake was the most affected😮‍💨 ...but , Let's see how they behave this week 💪🏻 (In the next plantations I will start using Mammoth p later, I think it affected the growth a little at an early stage. Now that I am also seeing how the companion plants behave, I will select better, placing more of some and less of others, I will also leave space in the pot to add a layer of soil and plant the companion plants 1 or 2 weeks after planting the girls. As for myco Chum, so far I have nothing to say, it seems like a good product, but for now it's just an assumption.)

6/6/2023 Week 9- Day 1 of Flower (Day 124 overall) (Day 63 of Flower) Auto Pilot Day 3.. Just watched them be beautiful. I also did a Trichome check today things are moving along nicely. 6/7/2023 Week 9- Day 2 of Flower (Day 125 overall) I admit it I couldn't help it there were some blatant offender leaves blocking the light from some of the canopy buds so they had to go..... and when I took them I found a few more in between leaves that had to go.. so long story short some defoliation did happen.. :-) 6/8/2023 Week 9- Day 3 of Flower (Day 126 overall) Auto pilot re-engaged.. I sat back took some photos and just enjoyed how beautiful this light side and dark side thing the plants are doing The buds are almost as long as my Sharpie. I also applied the last application of my Hermie spray to the clone I took in Apr to reverse it. 6/9/2023 Week 9- Day 4 of Flower (Day 127 overall) Auto Pilot Day 2... :-) It was check in day today for the grow off. Last check in for the competition. Trichomes are looking great.. did another check today will keep an eye on it just incase I need to cut earlier than planned. Tomorrow Water change day! 6/10/2023 Week 9- Day 5 of Flower (Day 128 overall) Auto pilot for the Ladies' but Water Change Day! I added 36 gallons Mammoth Silica = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil Root DRIP = 1Mil/Gal= 36Mil CalMag= .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil FloraMicro = 3.8Mil/Gal= 137Mil FloraGro= 2.8Mil/Gal= 100Mil FLoraBloom= 4.3Mil/Gal= 155Mil LiquidKoolBloom= 2.5Mil/Gal= 90Mil TPS SIGNAL= 3Mil/Gal= 108Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil Water Temp= 71.2 Tent Temp= 76 6/11/2023 Week 9- Day 6 of Flower (Day 129 overall) Auto Pilot Day 4...

Take a look at this beautiful purple beast! Really thick and numerous buds appeared after we defoliated her yesterday. Now you can really tell how well the LST with those plastic stretchers worked by just looking at the large, dense buds, which are growing across the whole planter. Included nutrients less often this week, as she is in late flower now, therefore some top leaves are starting to get brown spots. Also taking more time between waterings to dry her out a bit further preparing for harvest. More and more trichomes are getting that wonderful purple hue; as well as the heads turning amber with time. Right after handling her, as by giving her a much needed haircut like yesterday or doing some basic maintenance, she's releasing some strong scent, mainly consisting of citrus and spicy aroma. But as soon as she's left alone the smell is almost completely gone. Temperature is stable, but humidity is increasing in the last few days as it's raining quite often. So thankful to have the dehumidifier right now as there would be no other way to get the moisture out of our little "growroom".

She looks stunning 🤩😍 beautiful autoflowering kush, this blackberry has a very kushy fragrance, earthy and kinda like piney and citric aromas. Very special, she's producing a nice big fat cola, shes very sticky already at the beginning of the 4th week of flower, beautiful purple strain to grow! 💚 🌱 ✌️

So we are in week 2 of flower I ran out of Dutch pro and my hydro shop didn't have any in stock so I had to swap to canna 450ml A&B I've also added some bud blood. So today I did some defoliation to anything below my scrog net and tucked some of the bigger fan leaves to expose the new bud sites. I also raised my light a few inches to allow the ladies to grow into it. 21/5/21 The girls are growing fast I did some defoliation 2 days ago and I had to repeat today 26/5/21 Took some fan leaves off that where blocking bud sites only a small handful needed to be removed, I gave them a feed ppm 946 ph 6.3, bud sites are looking nice and healthy I've got plenty of air flow throughout my tent, have yet to notice any aroma but still very early days. That's all for now gays and gals happy growing and pleasant smoking ;)

Day 28 flower, things are doing well, humidity and heat are stable, plucking off leafs as I go along now anything blocking bud sites. I'm on week 7 of the biobizz feed schedule full dose, these girls not showing any nute burn or stress so far either I could probably push them more. Day 33 from flip. Heat and humidity are under control. Sitting at 27°c and 40-47% humidity with lights on. And 20°c and 47% humidity lights off. Ph levels on feeds and watering is 6.5, there really loving the biobizz range and the marshydro tsl2000 combo. So today the plants are getting fatter and nice and dense. Its super sticky and stacking on trichomes. These 3 beans came from The same pack, and each one smells diffrent. Closest pheno is a really lemon citrus smell and its strong. Middle pheno is like a sherberty smell and really tickles the 👃. Pheno 3 at the back is like a lemon skunk, really pungent and its got the fattest buds so far too. Day 34 flower, Feeding molasses today in 6.5ph water, I will start the next week tomorrow and will be starting on week 8 of the bio bizz nutes schedule. Thanks for all your support so far. Keep on growing

Día 36. Estamos en 6ta semana. Los esquejes se atrasaron debido a que han sido días muy fríos y no he logrado enraizarlos. Decidí poner el extractor de aire junto con la bomba de aire, así solamente se prende 15 minutos cada hora. Así estoy logrando temperaturas mayores a 24°C en el indoor y así voy a lograr el enraizado. La planta ya tiene un tamaño que ocupa casi todo el indoor. Pero lo importante es que la voy guiando y ya estoy proyectando como va a ir cada rama. El tamaño va a exceder lo que esperaba, pero aún así creo que si logro lo que tengo en mente, voy a sacar muy buenos resultados. Igual no me voy a arriesgar demasiado, así que si contando 10 días desde ahora, no logro que los esquejes enraicen, voy a pasar la madre a floración sola. Cómo pueden ver, las ramas están bastante gruesas, y el la ramificaciones van ganando su lugar cada una. Las raíces son demasiado grandes, aunque sé que voy a poder poner la planta en el sistema de arriba igual, aunque me voy a tener que ayudar de algo para meterlas. Es importante no utilizar las manos, ya que se pueden transmitir muchos hongos. Voy a seguir actualizando e ir viendo que pasa. Pero ya estamos en los últimos días de crecimiento, haya o no esquejes. Incluso puede que ya pase la planta al indoor de arriba para darle mayor libertad de crecimiento. Esto me va a servir para tlmar en cuenta en la próxima camada que se vendrá. La idea de esto es hacer las cosas rápido, y no en gran tamaño. Pero siendo que ya estoy en el baile, no me queda otra que bailar. Día 40 Los esquejes no estaban enraizando, así que decidí cambiarlos de lugar y los puse arriba de la luz, donde les da calor y luz tenue. Espero que ahora si agarren. Y hoy fue el gran día, pasé la planta madre al módulo de arriba. Pero lo voy a dejar una semana más creciendo. De esa forma veo si los esquejes llegan a agarrar a tiempo. Y además tuve un problema en el trasplante. Primero que la planta se hizo más grande que lo esperado, y la raíz también. Cuando la pasé, hubo contacto de la raiz con prácticamente todo lo que había cerca. Sumado a que se enredó en el oxigenador, así que quedó una pidra difusora en la raíz. Dado el alto riesgo de haberla contaminado con algún hongo, le puse una solución de agua con agua oxigenada, recirculando continuamente, para lavar las raices y de paso bajar el stress de teansplante. Mañana veremos cómo arranca el día. En el aprendizaje me llevo que en la madre, es mejor hacer un corte en el primer nudo, o dejar las ramas del segundo y quitar las del primero. Y así que queden sólo dos ramas, para luego dejar a los esquejes en el medio. Eso planeo hacer con la próxima variedad. Entre tanto ahora sólo me preocupa que la raíz no se haya contaminado en el traspaso. Ya en 8 días estaré pasando a floración si no hay esquejes. Si llegan a agarrar, habrá que dar unos días de crecimiento hasta que alcancen a la madre en altura. Pero ya está todo en definición. Ahora sólo queda esperar y seguir guiando a la planta. Ya tengo ganas de poner la próxima, pero falta bastante para eso. Tengo 10 semanas de flora, así que recién en 5 semanas voy a poner la nueva madre.
