Skuncle’s journey thru the Afghan Haze

[Skuncle Lenny]

I too have started the year with Afghan Haze, my 1st run at her.
Had 20 from Mr Nice from a March 2023 auction sitting in the fridge.
On New Years Day I soaked 10 for 24 hrs, paper towel, quick 10/10 germinated and now 7 days in:

8 looking good, one still with its helmet on and one fizzled out.
Just picking the ladies this time around.

21 days in, which I consider the start of Veg.

10/10, but 2 are stragglers. I’m not seeing roots thru the bottom yet, so I’ll continue in the small pots.
Veg closet will have space starting next week, so targeting then for transplanting.

Tagging along for the ride. Im very interested in this old school strain.

 

[Skuncle Lenny]

At 25 days I transplanted into .75g pots where they will stay until they show their sex and I can cull the males.
Chose the 8 strongest and hope for a good Veg.

 

[Schlawiener]

Good luck with growing it. I'm really excited because it's very high up on my list! Since it's always highly recommended.

Day 37. Kids r filling out nicely.

Weeks before knowing sex

Day 50 for the Afghan Haze group of 8.
Early sexing is seeing 3 fems, 2 males & 3 undecided.

Early ID’d 3 fems:

The Undecided:

The full group of Afghan Haze & MedMan:
2 males not photo’d.
Should know final #’s shortly.
Will start transplanting females next week into 5g buckets.

Hey Skuncle, any update on these gems...?

 

[Skuncle Lenny]

Wow, I’ve been MIA for a while.
Family health/life journey, followed by a revival trip to Minneapolis with remaining sibling Susan for a BRUCE opening night of emotion and unity, and now back to the day-to-day
So, I only ended up with two female Afghan Haze.
I flipped the 1st on day 74, 2nd day 81.
Same height @33”.
Today is Day 95/21 & 14 flowering:




Pruned/defol lower 1/3 of each branch and just removing fan leaves that are blocking bud sites.
Added Stonington blend fertilizer, bone meal & castings when flipped, and alternate ReCharge, Maxicrop and CalMag with every 3-4 days.
Leaves are reaching up/praying nicely
Hasn’t stretched much.

P.S. Life has been so hectic and challenging this year that I had no desire to grow and show.
So I appreciate y’all reaching out and getting me back on track, because I’m finding that it feels good to be back as both a grower and a shower…

Those plants look amazing. Why didn't you want to run all of the females?

 

[Swifty]

Good to see you back Skuncle Lenny.

 

[easty]

Great to see you back @Skuncle Lenny! Hope you are going ok mate!

Gave away 2 of the 8 MedMan females.
The ideal # of plants for my space seems to be 12, so 6 MedMan + 2 Afg Hz + 4 others I have from Oregon.

 

[Skuncle Lenny]

Day 103/29 & 22 days flowering.
Much less stretch than I expected. Just 36” each.
A Lit’le bit of lime green to some mid/lower fan leaves. Maybe from my recent adding of nutrient concoction?

Current aroma off the 4 weeker is perfumy sweet skunky.

 

[Skuncle Lenny]

Day 116/42 & 35 days flowering for Afghan Haze. Done stretching very little, both 36”.

Nice coming out of the 6 weeker. Fruity haze

5 weeker right behind.

Really looking forward to the 2nd half of these girls.

Hey @Skuncle Lenny the gals look great! What do they smell like?

Fruity haze

 

[Skuncle Lenny]

Day 134/60 & 53 days flowering. 2 similar looking, but distinctly different .

60 day on the L is fruity haze with nipplez, hard buds throughout, even popcorn.

2nd is a week behind, cone shaped buds, wee bit leafier with a fruity skanky, stank to it, in a good way.

2 fine specimens, strong PM resistance, and mighty pretty

 

[Trickcomanche]

Great looking plants Skuncle.

 

[Wako78]

I like the one with nipplez
