đż Early Flower Surprise
Week 1 of flower⌠and I swear these girls are moving like theyâre already in week 2. Pistils are out, floral sites are forming, and the stretch is starting with elegance.
Itâs possible they slipped into pre-flower during late veg without me catching it, they were so stable, compact, and lush that I might have missed the subtle signals. Either way, theyâve entered bloom with full confidence.
Both phenos are incredibly similar in structure and size, making them a joy to manage. Theyâre compact yet big, stacking nodes tightly while still filling space. The leaf color is deep and uniform, the formation is textbook Haze, and the inner node spacing is perfectly balanced for light penetration.

đ§ Feed & Water Adjustments
Weâve tweaked the recipe this week, retiring Aptus Start Booster and introducing Aptus Top Booster at 0.25 ml/L.
Current Feed (per L):
⢠Aptus Regulator â 0.15 ml
⢠Aptus CalMag Boost â 0.25 ml
⢠Aptus Top Booster â 0.25 ml
The soil is already enriched with slow-release Aptus pellets, which explains why EC in solution is lower (0.6) while the mediumâs own EC is holding steady at ~2.0. Theyâre drinking well, 1.5â2 L per day â with irrigation happening around 25% dryness in the pots.

đĄď¸ Environmental Conditions & Upcoming Changes
The room is running hotter than ideal at 31°C daytime, 25°C night. RH is stable at 50%. COâ sits comfortably at ~700 ppm.
A dedicated AC unit is on its way and should be installed next week, which will help dial temperatures closer to the sweet spot for flowering.
Soil temperature is at 25°C, supporting strong root activity, while PPFD at the canopy sits between 760â780 Âľmol/m²/s depending on plant position. We monitor these numbers carefully to keep photosynthesis at optimal efficiency without stressing the plants.
⸝
âď¸ Why We Measure Everything
⢠PPFD: Ensures plants receive the right light intensity for maximum photosynthetic activity during each stage. Too low = underpowered; too high = light stress.
⢠Soil Dryness: Prevents both overwatering and underwatering, protecting root health and microbial balance in living soil.
⢠Soil EC: Tells us nutrient availability inside the medium, helping us adjust feed without guessing.
⢠COâ: Works in harmony with light intensity and temperature to push growth rates without causing metabolic stress.

đ Remembering the Queen
Super Silver Haze isnât just another cultivar, sheâs an old school heavyweight, a cup-winning legend with a long legacy. Growing her feels like growing history.
Thereâs nostalgia here for me, a personal connection to the magic this plant has delivered over decades. My hope is to see her express that classic SSH magic, the electric haze high, the silver sheen on the colas, and the unmistakable aroma that once ruled the cups.
⸝
đ¸ Studio Shots & Natural Growth
Of course, I couldnât resist taking them to the studio this week. Under the lens, they shine, vibrant greens, symmetrical structures, healthy posture. No training yet, letting them express themselves naturally as they settle into flower.
Next week, I expect to see stronger pistil development, initial stacking, and perhaps the first hints of stretch acceleration.
⸝
đŽ Whatâs Next?
⢠AC unit installation for tighter climate control
⢠Continued monitoring of PPFD and EC
⢠Watching for early resin development
⢠Tracking stretch patterns for possible support netting
These queens are just starting to show what theyâre capable of.
The road to the crown begins here. đżđ
