Killer A5 Haze

[dubi]

Was worth it - don't let talk about numbers. That's not even all.

Congrats on your harvest @Snipp Glad your final harvest was bountiful. Are you enjoying with the outcome ?

Killer A5 Haze (same for A5 Haze mother) is not the easiest strain to grow since the flowering is moderate-long and requires lots of nutrients during flowering, so to finish Killer A5 Haze up to its best potential requires quite a lot of experience, not only with growing more sativa strains, with the feeding and temps in the environment too.

KA5H at 5.5 weeks flower and 7.5 weeks since flip on 11/13. Seed plant vegged for 9.5 weeks after germination 2 weeks prior. Environment is a 1.2m2 tent. This is the 3rd phenotype I have grown and the hardest to keep green, it loves nutes. It’s in 56l of gaunakalong soil mix. I feed Oldtimer Bloom and organic pk. I use mammoth P microbes weekly to keep the soil live. 600w super HPS and a 4 x COB running at 216w of white. Centre is a UVB 310 running last 4 weeks of flower at 2hrs midday. It’s pretty hot and temps at canopy have been up to 30C although the plant is coping really well. Very manageable stretch with this one, started out with quite fat leaves that narrowed with age. A few branches have 3 nodes and now have fat colas. All colas needing tying up at the 5 week of flower mark. Resin started at week 2 and is quite prolific, nasty rotting rubbish smell, not overpowering.

Great flower development after only 5 weeks of real flowering @skunkfunk hehehehe the 'nasty rotting rubbish smell' is probably your way to describe A5 Haze organic, meaty-decaying flowers aroma, which along with the loud incense are signature terpene of straight A5 Haze mother.

How did she finish ? Hope the temps were not too high during the summer indoor grow, although seems she dealt with them quite good.

Thanks Dubi. She came out really well for a first grow. I pollinated a branch with a funky male Pakistan that actually looked similar in appearance to the KA5H. I took a clone of the Killer Haze and having it flowering again at 6 weeks. It finished at 10.5 weeks so was quick and those smells are incredible. Very potent stuff. I find it very psychoactive in terms of memory and emotion. Some folk can’t cope with it !

 

[dubi]

Dubi, do you want the report to do it here or do I open my own thread?

I saw your own thread already and your Killer A5 Haze starting to flower @spigolaro to answer your question, i'm fine with both

Hi @blondie looking at the development of your Killer A5 Haze since July.... wow she really explode in growth from mid July until early August, what a difference. Looks like she is starting to show now a bit of yellowing, a sign that she is root bound and needs more nutrients. Transplant her to a bigger pot if you have the chance, it will make a difference at the end. Although tamed in structure, she really started the flowering slow, hope this pheno is not too long flowering for your climate-latitude .... but we harvest A5 Haze mother at 37N at end of November and most Killer A5 Hazes earlier than that.

 

[dubi]

Glad to hear you are flowering her again from clones @skunkfunk and that you and your friends find the harvest very potent and psychoactive

@StickyBandit thanks a lot for all the frequent updates these weeks, and congrats on your harvest of your first 2 KA5H The first early flowering pheno was really interesting, so did the second although this one finished more tortured (probably due to too high temps in the tent and/or ph and feeding imbalance). I like a lot the look of the third finishing in your most recent posts, she looks quite advanced, i wouldn't feed her again, flush, let ripe this final reflowering and chop chop time!

I think you probably need to work on improve the high temps indoors during summer grows, and find the growing media you like most. Coco is a great choice because you just need to approx follow the feeding regime. When growing in soil, one never fully knows how much nutrients there are still in the pot. In any case, it's super important to use a lot the EC and PH meters, know your growing media, fertilizers and quality of your water very very well.

She smells like liver, leather and hazey incense. To me it kind of smells like the shoe department in the department store at the mall in the 80's when I was a kid. Maybe that wasn't just shoes lol

Nice @draztik After breeding several A5 Haze outcrosses, i'm finally be able to recognize almost without doubts when i see a Haze A dominant pheno like yours. Traits like for example the way of stretching and type of flowering, and of course the signature organic, meaty, incensey terpene profile. She looks great and well developed after 7 weeks of flowering. How did she finish ? She got me excited hehehehhe

Thank you so much @Synthracer for sharing pics of your results with one of the few Killer A5 Haze released packs, much appreciated. Glad she is also meaty, with liver Very interesting seeds you have produced as well!

 

[dubi]

I started three of the limited standard release and unfortunately, they all ended up males…so I will be pollen chucking with them this season.

Hi Ur Humbl Nr8tor that's not a bad thing after all. The strong point of Killer A5 Haze regular release was to have the chance to offer seeds that produce males with strong A5 Haze character. What do you plan to pollinate with them ? Hope the third one is a female, so you can get a taste of KA5H this year!

 

[dubi]

Hi dillycid thanks for sharing yours @dillycid ! Really a stretchy-thin stemmed pheno but not too slow to start to flower, probably she won't need to go further than November, we will see this month. How does she smell ?

KA5H at 6 weeks; a superior specimen.

what a massive plant KenDugE
She is going to be a beast at harvest time! Thanks for your updates, exciting weeks ahead!

Welcome to our room RottyRzr A pleasure to see you growing Killer A5 Haze!
Yours looks very happy, healthy and under control to face the rest of the flowering, please keep us updated!

Thanks for sharing yours too Rodehazrd ! October is going to be interesting for her.

6 month cured Killer A5 Haze it got way better. I now rate this as good or better than the Malawi. Props to Dubi

Malawi, A5 Haze, and Killer A5 Haze really get better with a long cure compared with other strains.
Enjoy @sdd420 happy to hearyou like KA5H more than Malawi!

My ka5h yesterday. Coming along. I think if this were to finish it will be a great product. It gets very little direct sun now though. I didn’t water enough through this hot summer. Not able to up pot. I do need to bump up nutes I think. I’m thinking calcium issue on the leaf image.

 

[spigolaro]

My Assassin at 32 days of 12-12, and the scrog without a net.

She never misses these dates haha.

Thanks Dubi. Hope you don't mind a question? It sounds like you recommend a high nutrient level for the KA5H yet I'm only feeding 1.1ec (550ppm) and see very slight browning of the leaf tips. Im hesitant to raise the nute level any more as I don't want to over feed. Have you noticed that some phenos of the KA5H require less nutes?
Edited to add that I'm growing in coco/perlite and feeding 3 times per day to a decent run-off.

Hi @RottyRzr most KA5H request high levels of NPK during flowering, although being a complex poly hybrid there's always a chance to find more sativa leaning expressions that ask for less EC. Yours is a perfect picture of health, don't increase the feeding, she seems enjoying current one

Thanks for the response, Dubi.

 

[StickyBandit]

The grow and bloom have the same NPK? Seems strange.

I guess root growth slows down around the same time as plant growth (rule of thumb kind of belief).

She seems to be quite far along already? Might be ready for harvest in a couple of weeks. Worth taking into account with the feed plan. But if you feel she needs a booster give her one?

I think you're right. It's at day 57 today and I'll be chopping it in 2 days on day 59 though it's probably ready now.
The buds are very hard and smelly and I think longer will just be past the peak.
I got a few final bud shots
Now that I posted the pics I can see quite a few ambers in there

 

[Rodehazrd]

40 days flowering many more to go. She’s high on the ridge and as leaves go down light goes up for me

That's a real marathon of answers there mate, Legend!
Thanks for all the advice. I chopped the plump one today and will probably get about 7oz. She is a lot fatter and smellier than the previous ones and was finished in a larger 30L pot with organics for the second part of the grow.
Not really going to be growing with coco for now. I'm more looking at staying with organics for a while and making an effort to find a decent organic mix or making my own blend here in New Zealand but there aren't as many options as other countries. Once I get sorted growing the long hazes (which I'm attempting now) everything else should be a breeze
On another topic, what is your best fast finishing, high yield, potent strain for an indica leaning person? Happy wife happy life
