Silver Haze - 5 Foot Tall(65 Days Flowering)

[MedicineMan13]

This lady was a gift that I grew out for a few months as a potential mother. I raped her branches for clones, then decided to throw her in the Flower room immediately afterwards.

This was my first grow. Many mistakes, many lessons learned. She was grown under a 1000W HPS light. Temperature was hard to control, stayed inbetween 85-93 degrees, and thats using a 1200 BTU portable A/C. It is hot where I live, too damn hot. Going to switch to an air cooled reflector soon.

Used General Hyroponics nutrients. Three part nutrients plus Floralicious Grow & Bloom additives, Koolbloom liquid & Koolbloom powder. I used a organic,soiless mix (1/4 Hydroton Clay, 1/4 Coco Coir, 1/4 Miracle Gro Organic Choice POtting Mix, and 1/4 Black Kow composted cow manure).

I believe the Koolbloom powder in combination with Koolbloom Liquid caused the burning on the leaves. When I used the liquid alone (0-10-10) everything was fine but when i started adding the powder it was too much for her. I just flushed her 3 days ago and stopped feeding, will only give her water for next 10 days. I did not plan this in any way but the 75 day flower period ends on December 25. I am hoping to crop her christmas morning!

Maybe I will leave her longer though because I want her to go through her full flowering period so that I can become more familiar with this strain that i will be working with.

Hey looks like a big girl alright...how long was she in veg for?

[MedicineMan13]

This is her on day 1 of flowering, just after cutting her for clones. I must have cut off like 10 huge branches...

[MedicineMan13]

Somewhere around 2-3 months, while i was setting up the flowering room. I literally have the light hanging right under the roof and i have 8 foot ceiling. She is a tall indoor girl, good thing i topped her when i did, She would have hit the celing that's for sure.

This is another picture of here on November 7th. She was so healthy then, I cant believe I burnt her. I lost much of the bottom branches. Lesson learned. I will have pics of her offspring sometime in the future.

silver haze is probably one of my favorite strains for smoking, but not for growing. i always stay away from the sativas, although it looks as though your girl turned out ok.

Ur pic inspired me to get out the string n tie down some branches! is that called LSG? low stress aye....it helps to bush it out? anyway I copied wot you did n ofcourse its gonna help the light get all the way down the stems now...so Thanks for the idea n insperation!!
