Super Silver Haze - 2022 - Organic

Retail seedbag 2022.

(*)illustration only

Overall Conditions:
4"/4", 120/120cm - HID600(GP), Wide air-cooled reflector, Flat fan(air circulation).
Containers 19L / 5gal
100% germination rate, water and soil only, no wet towel nonsense.

14 seeds > 14 plants - 9 females.
2 weirdos (explainations incoming).
1 sacrifice(late sproot)
8 females at last.
1 male selected for its general structure and vigor
Females are quiet uniform although 2 phenotypes can be indentified one as a Sk/NL and one more hazy​

Grow phase:
1 week of 18/6, then 11/13.
Topped, bent AND supercropped.


They healed fast and strong.


Flowering soil:
Light mix + humus + guano + diatomite + epsom + 1inch / 2.5cm clay balls(ph adjusted).
BioC nutrients 50 to 75% of recommanded dosage. Since BioC is low on N, I gave'em a N shot(organic) let's call it "BioPP+" , this happened during stretch phase.
Ph adjusted to 6.2(citrik acid), Bubbler(cause tap water is meh).

Each of 'em received the same weather and nutrients conditions.




Description Weirdo-1 aka SSH#3:
Most vigorous female i've witnessed in 20 years. This thing grows like bamboo, and has the most deep green, also leaves are giganormous.
Only issue, it is now D49 of 11/13 she declared at D35, and as you can see there is no flower building up.
Pictures of SSH#3


This might be the "dark" 20+weeks pheno.(let me know what you think)
Anyway this thing is gonna stay there unless it grows past the reflector. It is now 5.5ft tall ~165cm after being topped, bent and supercropped.

Description Weirdo-2 aka SSH#9:
A simple triploïd, deep green weird structure, leaves have poor amount of funnel(3 funnels) but she's very strong and vigorous, typical for a triploïd.
I check her on a daily basis for pollensacks, she might be sacrificed in the next few weeks.

Next update at 9 and 11 weeks.

You guys litteraly made the world(of cannabis) a better place.

[Throwback]

as the maajority of the plants look well on their way, you may consider dropping a few minutes off the light cycle to help the ones that are less developed really sense the need to get the flowers going.

Here's hoping you do indeed get a 20-week SSH plant, and that it's excellent smoke.

Nice comeback brah! Welcome home!

Many Thanks for these kind words.
After 15 years of "lurking", your kindness is much appreciated so let's agree that the least i can do is a documented grow report.

Nice @Tetsuo!
Lots of narrowed leaf lady's, there will be amongst these.

Greetings!

Awesome and you started it off with a bang and hoping for the 20week banger for you. That plant is huge she would have filled the tent on her own the way she is growing

Dear @Islandgrower,

You really understood what i tried to share regarding the "probably" 20+pheno. Absolutely right, the thing would easily fill the space(4"/4") with the right bending process.
I'll do my best to keep you guys informed of the evolution.
To be honest, what i fear the most regarding this particular pheno is a non-flowering female. Some may know that there is a (tiny tiny) possibilitie that she never-oh-never flowers.
The cliffhanger is real.

Welcome!

Guano-tea day.

50 grms / ~1.8oz of Powder Guano mixed in 1L of warm (body T°) water. Let the mixture rest in dark place.
Take 50 to 60 ml (~ 1,67 fl oz) add this to 10L of water Ph adjusted 6.2.(only citrik acid)

Feed with this mixture once a week from 3rd week to preflush, of course between the BioC feedings.
So basicaly it goes like:

Schedule:
Feed BioC for a week
then Guano-Tea
back to BioC
then Guano-Tea
and so on....

Back in the early 2000 this was a thing, i never stopped. Is this still relevant ?
Share your opinion. Criticism is welcome.

Iirc Thai strains are known for Endless flowering where it keeps pushing out new pistils . I guess if the light hours were dropped lower it may actually trigger full in flowering. Wouldn't hurt to try.

@Islandgrower
I guess i can try a progressiv 11/13 to 10/14.
The main reason i did not changed daylight is because it don't feel reasonable to change the set-up for a sole female.

Can be done gradually that way as the others are finishing she will have a little more space to do her thing.

I like guano too not the smell, but it does its magic imo. I rather buy 5 kilo guano than an expensive booster. It’s good for the next plant when re-using soil and much better for the mycorizzha and bacterial life.
Not sure if guano tea would do any good on a Silver in cocos been given A and B solution? I am really asking. Mine is taking her time too. Keeps making white hairs and zero milkyness.

Welcome to the forum, impressive intro.

Dear @Cannalicous,

"I rather buy 5 kilo guano than an expensive booster."
This should be the welcome board of every growshops.

"Welcome to the forum, impressive intro."
Thnak you very much, i now feel sorry for welcoming you silently when you poped among us.

"Not sure if guano tea would do any good on a Silver in cocos been given A and B solution?"
I can't help you on this one, i have zero experience in coco.

You may not have any milkyness yet but you full of kindness, and that's a gift.

Week-09 update ​

Nothing much to say since week-07, these beauties grow by themselves. They are now on 10/14 to help the late flowering pheno.
Slow and steady...They will probably win the race.

Poor picture have same angle and POV than week-07 - no filter/edit - no metadata(how dare you)​

Critics:
Supercrop went to far, i should have stopped earlier, good thing is, canopy is even and maintained at low level, bad thing is, the harvest is postponed for at least 10 days. I'm not saying the plant didn't like it, she loved it but supercrop is never without consequences.
Therefore Flower period of 13 to 14 weeks is expected.
Last week reflector was 1 inch low, i noticed a bit late, resulting in 2 colas(tallest ones) being a bit sun bleached.(i hope i'm right cuz' if it's overfeed i'm f^kd, pardon my french)



Couple of budshots cause why not...








Next update at week 11.

Super report so far, I love your style

 

[Tetsuo]

@Deach69

you too kind, 45°Ojigi just for you...

How's it going !!??...Today is Week-11 Udate ​

Crucial day indeed, i got to figure out if i stop or if i give'em a last week of feeding. A wise man once said that if it feels ready to harvest, best is to wait another 10 days.
I am a man of well aged trichomes, never cut too early !!! Next days will determine the answer, the suspens is real.
As you can see, they start to fade since i reduced the feeding and stop the guano tea.
Forgive me for poor pictures.




Same bud as week-09.


20-Weeks pheno quick update:
She is finaly flowering, she take double amount of water and nutrients, compared to the others.




Since i got 8 females there was a spot available, I decided to put a Jack.H(SS) cutting and use her as "control group".(pictures below)
Below is a 12 weeks pheno and was selected for its old school caracteristics, the purple shade is not caused by temperatures.



Below, a global shot from above the plant.




See ya at Week-13. Until then don't forget to keep it green !!!

"What does that even mean, you think we play "rébus" or what ??"
​

You right let me please illustrate. Cheap pictures taken with smarthone ("One+ Nord"+ (x200 lens))
Cured sample >>> Shark Shock.

Below is what we aim for.

*Since this is cured more than 3 months, lot of trichs lost their bulb/head but we can see that the remaining are mostly amber.

*pointy trich, as everyone knows this is not a good thing, less is better.



*regular trichs that lost their head/bulb (no worry though they in the jar and will be used for iceolator soon)



Below a trichome check of current grow on specimen SSH#8(11 weeks)

*under the micro-budleaf we can see the trichs following the path of primary and secondary veins.
