I wish I had better lights. These are cheap ts600 and par600 The last week i did major pruning of lower shaded popcorn buds, skinny stringy branches. Tied outter buds towards more lighting and have cut water and nutrients back. Ive found that if you let a plant get on the drier side. That it'll give you more frost, better flavor, and larger colas. This method comes from fine wine makers who force not so optimal conditions onto their vines. This in turn causes the plant to work harder and focused more on bud than growing new fan leaves. Cannabis plants biggest goal is to get a cola in to the air as high as it can in hopes to get a pollinating creatures attention. If you manipulate this you can force the plant to make better buds. Because theres a chance the plant senses danger because of the watering routine changing

Got these transplanted to the rain science 3 gal bags and moved to a 4x4 in the basement where it's a little better environment in terms of vpd. I had a full bag of roots organic soil so I decided to do a soil/coco blend like I did with the current autoflower crop. I also topped every single one of em mid week. Once I get the flower tent all cleaned out and everything I'll be throwing these in there for bloom. Hoping this will be an even better grow than the last since I have both my arms back. I'm doing the update a little early since I was late on it last week, today (tuesday 9.10.19) is day 43 from germination and about day 39 from full sprout. Before this week they were under only about 185w in a 4x4 area so it's been slow growth so far. The hawaiians are doing good very healthy so far.

Tuesday’s foliar spray (Vita Race) gave leaves a pep talk. Thursday’s bigger watering (700–1200ml) and Saturday’s 10L batch (1.2 EC, 660 PPM, 1.5–2L per plant) kept soil happy, though runoff hit high (2.7 EC, 1100–1500 PPM). LST started Friday on the fabric pot plant, hitting all plants by Saturday. Lights bumped to 40% @ 25cm, PPFD 420–490. CO₂ dipped to 420 ppm Sunday. 😬 Lessons: → Nutrient Caution: High runoff (2.7 EC) suggests overfeeding. Dial back nutrients for autos next time. → LST Timing: Starting LST mid-week boosted growth—keep it gentle and early! 🌿 → VPD Spike: Sunday’s 1.6 VPD stressed plants. Aim for 0.8–1.2 to keep them comfy. 💨 → Foliar Win: Tuesday’s spray worked; use sparingly at lights-off for max uptake. 🌫️ Takeaway: Plants are thriving, but need to watch nutrient strength and VPD to avoid stress. Keep LST and light tweaks coming!

Stretched like crazy! Showing sativa dominance. 1 plant had 2 roots stuck in cup and broke off. Hopefully recovery is fine and I can get to the fun of training soon!

Per cominciare auguro Buon Anno a tutti. Oggi finisce la 10 sett.da nascita,domenica finirá la 5 sett. di flow. Mi sembra la pianta dietro a destra abbia carenza di qualcosa,ma ho letto da altri utenti che le Charlotte's Angel tendono a ingiallirsi,perciò la lascio cosí per il momento. Domenica aggiungo altre foto della fioritura.🏻☮️

JUL 15- so she needs some defoliation and some general maintenance because she is starting to lean over, but im out of town for another week. She had some nutes given to her this week. Also, her trichombes are very frosty this girl puts out alot of zap. The one in front is a Mexican Sativa strain which I set to flower a day after her. Also have some Habaneros in the Tent they are awesome they love the Nutes

Flower4, día 4 desde que comenzó la floración, se regaron con 1.8 EC y pH 6.2, con los nutrientes puestos en la descripción, no me tienen muy convencido pero creo que van mejorando. Flower9, defoliación y riego, está vez se agregó al riego Bud Candy, el cual seguirá siendo usado en toda la fase de floración. Flower13, riego 2.0 EC y pH 6.2, se agregó Voodoo Juice, Tarantula y Piranha al agua de riego.

Although the yellow appearance this lady has still been growing at the same rate as the rest and shooting out the side branches nicley , she is a week behind the rest due too the first seed not germinating but week by week progress has been the same as the others

Die buds sind zwar nicht so fest, dafür ist gefühlt die ganze Pflanze ein einziger bud. Ich würde sagen, wir bewegen uns auf den Endspurt zu. Also nochmal alles rausholen was geht.

-Flowering is going well. Gunna try and test the ph of the runoff this week to see if I have an issue. -BC1 has some yellowing leaves near the top of the plant. -WW1 (the bushy plant) has had 2 major haircuts this week. I’m having a really weird issue with some upper leaves turning red! They’re turning red, not dying or falling off just turning red, it’s weird and only happening to this plant. -WW2 and BC2 are doing amazing! Pretty much all green except for the occasional old yellowing leaf -Time to pack on some weight -Midget has started to flower, doubt it will be ready before the cold, we’ll see what happens

The craziest strain, this one ever since she started flowering all she has been doing is going in and out of reveggin and flowering, she has even out grown everyone, and the craziest part, is that she uses less grow medium than all the other ladies, I should expect late January harvest, my fear is her not been able to support her buds, as tall as she is, I think I should waiting and see.

Entered diary of the month for the first time here on GD. It’s been a good run thanks to Ethos Genetics and Front Row AG Nutrients. Grow diaries has been kinds shitty lately. I’ve tried my best to upload as many good photos as possible. I know I grow a little differently than most here on grow diaries. Push the plants as hard as you can, lots of heat/humidity/co2 and high EC. My motto, if you’re gonna grow, harvest as much as you can with the space you have. Overall this was one of my best runs in a while. Deep orange and cream/cake smells and vigorous growth made this a great strain.

🌸 Week 1 Flower – Super Silver Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Super Silver Haze Phenotypes: SSH #1 & SSH #2 Tent: 8x8 Shared Grow Space Lighting: Future Of Grow – Black Series 600W LED Control System: TrolMaster Hydro-X Watering: Hand Watering Pot Size: 11L Fabric Pots Medium: Super Soil with Aptus Holland amendments CO₂: ~700 ppm Day Temp: 31°C Night Temp: 25°C Humidity: 50% Soil Temp: 25°C Water pH: 6.1 Water EC: 0.6 Runoff EC: ~2.0 Water Temp: 18.5°C PPFD: 760–780 µmol/m²/s ⸻ 🌿 Early Flower Surprise Week 1 of flower… and I swear these girls are moving like they’re already in week 2. Pistils are out, floral sites are forming, and the stretch is starting with elegance. It’s 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, they’ve entered bloom with full confidence. Both phenos are incredibly similar in structure and size, making them a joy to manage. They’re 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. ⸻ 💧 Feed & Water Adjustments We’ve 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 – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 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 medium’s own EC is holding steady at ~2.0. They’re drinking well, 1.5–2 L per day — with irrigation happening around 25% dryness in the pots. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Conditions & Upcoming Changes The room is running hotter than ideal at 31°C daytime, 25°C night. RH is stable at 50%. CO₂ 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 760–780 µmol/m²/s depending on plant position. We monitor these numbers carefully to keep photosynthesis at optimal efficiency without stressing the plants. ⸻ ⚙️ 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. • CO₂: Works in harmony with light intensity and temperature to push growth rates without causing metabolic stress. ⸻ 👑 Remembering the Queen Super Silver Haze isn’t just another cultivar, she’s an old school heavyweight, a cup-winning legend with a long legacy. Growing her feels like growing history. There’s 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. ⸻ 📸 Studio Shots & Natural Growth Of course, I couldn’t 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. ⸻ 🔮 What’s 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 they’re capable of.
