NL5 x Haze run

[theghost420]

Hello everyone, I hope life is treating you all well.

I was waiting on some SSHxAC tester seeds and I assumed they weren't going to turn up as everyone else's landed weeks before, so I decided to plant 6
Nl5Hz to keep me entertained. (then the SSHxAC testers landed so they will be next after males and females are assessed with this run)

I love hazes, especially longer flowering varieties like Nevils and Mango Haze so if something pops up with long flowering it will be a welcomed bonus.

6 seeds were taken from the freezer to the fridge for 24 hours, then room temperature for 48 hours before soaking in a glass of distilled water and h2o2.

Removed 12 hours later, planted into coco under a low wattage led and given a light feed at 1.0 ec. A few days later and we have 6 out of 6 above the medium

Week 5, still under the same low wattage led



(they were still getting 1.0ec which should really have been increased after the first couple of weeks as the picture shows)

They were then potted up and ec increased for 2 more weeks before cuttings were taken.




Around 10-12 days later all 6 have rooted and have been potted into coco.
Going to veg for a couple of weeks before moving to the flowering tent for sexing.
Here's hoping for some nice females

Good luck with your grow @theghost420 , and One Love!

NL5 × Haze is another strain that's still on my list… which is getting pretty damn long by now.

I have to apologise for the lack of updates bros, work was very busy throughout September.
Then I received some terrible news about one of my childhood friends, he sadly passed away, such a sad time, he was a young guy too We have to make the most of the time we have and enjoy it with our family and friends.

With everything going on the plants haven't been getting the care they usually would and I've also been battling low humidity in the tent the past couple of weeks.

All 6 were potted up into slightly larger terracotta pots for a couple of weeks veg. Nl5Hz2 and Nl5Hz4 showed sex in veg so I potted them up again into larger fabric pots.

Started flowering around the second week of October. Nl5Hz 1, 3 and 5 turned out to be males. I kept them running in the main flowering tent until they were almost ready to drop pollen, then moved them to a smaller tent and collected it to hit some females with.
So 2, 4 and 6 are the females and are just past 21 days flowering.

NL5Hz2 - The tallest of the 3 females with nice internode structure, current smells are meaty/musky with some fruity tones in the mix




Nl5Hz4 - Not as stretchy as female 2 and a little fussier with the nutrients though she smells very unique, very fruity with catpiss in the mix. I ran a fast finishing critical haze from Shanti in 2011/2012 and the smell reminds me of it!



Nl5Hz6 - Considering it is in a smaller pot it is keeping up nicely with the other two.
Smells of summer fruits/jam with some bubblegum in there too. This pheno likes more nutrients than the other two.



For convince all 3 have been getting the same ratio of A&B nutrient at an EC of 1.2.
Fresh cuttings will be taken from the female mother plants to give these all a proper run now sex and feed preference have been figured out.
So far I can say the Nl5Hz is impressing me. 6 out of 6 seeds sprouted, vigorous growth in veg, very easy cloned (took around 10 days) and the smells are nice but also unique between phenos

Appreciate the comment uncle Jack

Here they are just over 1 week later.
Nl5xHz#2



So far this girl is my favourite pheno of the three females. Good amount of stretch without big gaps between the nodes and filling out nicely. Looks like she will be a nice yielder. Smells meaty/funky some zesty/fruity undertones coming through

 

[theghost420]

Nl5xHz#4


This lady seems to be leaning a lot more to the Nl5 side, not much stretch, bigger bracts and she is the least stinky of the 3. Still a decent plant we will see how she progresses over the next few weeks but at the minute it isn't a keeper for me

 

[theghost420]

Nl5xHz#6


Starting to fill out nicely. This girl really likes her food. EC is 0.2 higher than #2 and #4. I've taken note for the next batch of clones.
Getting very stinky with strong fruit/jam scents still with something like bubblegum in the mix.

I now have free space again in the veg tent after moving clones into the flowering room. This means the SSHxAC testers will be sprouted over the next week or so along with some Outback Haze.
Really looking forward to seeing what can be found in the SSHxAC, hoping for some long flowering keepers like some of you guys got
