Spigolaro Vs Killer a5 Haze

[spigolaro]

I don't know if I helped very much but I'll try to get a pic of the whole plant later today. When I read your description of the smells I almost spilled my coffee! I terrible at describing smells/odors but scorched chicken skin and butchered rabbit wouldn't have come to mind! It is a stinky plant that's for sure. But only if I touch it. Theres no odor in the grow room which is unusual for my grows. (I had a OG Kush that could be smelled from outside the house!)
Id like to know my pheno also. I guess time will tell.

Pic Added. I labeled it week 5 12/12 but that is since flip. Also I have the light set for 11/13 now. Quite a few branches are tied down due to height concerns as this is an indoor grow. I hope it's about done with stretching. Lighting is 2x 400 watt leds. Nutes are Jacks 5/12/26, Calcium Nitrate and Magnesium Sulfate at 1.0ec. I'm gonna bump the ec up a little. I also give it some humic/fulvic/seaweed once or twice per week. Im in coco/perlite drain-to-waste so I just pour the humic stuff in instead of adding it to my reservoir. The wooden stand I made is 4 feet wide x 2 feet deep so you can get an idea of the plant size.
Sorry to post so long in your thread.

Seeing your photos I think we have the same phenotype, also how you describe the smells that you only smell if you rub the branches. The first time I smelled the plant I almost felt like throwing up, it almost looked like an old man had farted inside the box ahahaha, I think it is not a suitable strain for the faint of stomach

Buonasera, siamo al ventiduesimo giorno del cambio di fotoperiodo e sembra che la pianta abbia smesso di allungarsi e si stia concentrando sulla fioritura. Sinceramente pensavo si allungasse di più, ma la fase di allungamento è stata molto gestibile e alla fine è venuta come volevo ovvero un bel cespuglio basso e tozzo. Ora il pannello led è alla massima potenza e sembra che le piaccia tanto la forte intensità della luce.

bellissimo @spigolaro love the way you tame vigorous strains in such a small indoor space.
The 4 phenotypes of the strain description were defined based on flowering traits. Let's wait till at least 2/3 parts of flowering and i think then we will be able to recognize more flowering traits, so far i don't think is going to be a long flowering expression.

 

[spigolaro]

Hi Dubi, thanks for visiting and did you see what a superb plant she came up with ?? !! It did a long period of vegetative growth, patched several times at intervals and finally cropped to the branches that took too much apical dominance.

 

[spigolaro]

Good evening guys, today we have reached the thirty-second day from the photoperiod change the plant is now in gear and is consuming a lot of nutrients giving it Bac organic bloom and organic pk alternating with top shooter, now we are at full capacity. The tops are getting bigger and you start to smell a slight smell, very sour to be honest so much so that I have mounted the activated carbon filter.

 

[spigolaro]

Let's see if I'm right, my Killer should be more prone to the Northern Lights. The small size, the various smells that it releases makes me lean towards the second phenotype and that's okay by me I'll make a right of it by ahahaha.

The plant is a huge nutrient greedy, we are 37 days old and she is practically deficient the plant has now turned yellow and the buds are bending from the weight.

 

[dubi]

Keep the feeding strong @spigolaro A5 Haze and hungry Killer A5 Haze phenos like yours need very high levels of nutrients (also nitrogen) at least until reaching 2/3 parts of flowering.

 

[spigolaro]

Certainly Dubi I am feeding it heavily, now every day I give him to drink and eat because he wants more and more ... The smells are becoming more and more complex and heavy, now pepper and leather predominate. However, the buds get more fat every day and tomorrow I will have to tie them because they are already bent by the weight of the flowers, they are taking the form of long spears ready to pierce my brain ahahaha. And 40 days are gone, still has a lot to give I hope that a very heavy Orient Express crop will come out, even there the plant I had fertilized heavily.

Fantastic grow. I’m really enjoying your thread. Look forward to the progress.

Hello and thank you for visiting, you are too good but she is doing the most important work.

 

[spigolaro]

Here we are, day 46 from the switch and she is getting more and more fat like a slut so because of all this I had to do some bindings because the branches are literally bent by the weight of the flowers. Anyway come on we're on the right track imho.

 

[dubi]

Excellent progress @spigolaro you are rocking it!

 

[spigolaro]

Hi Dubi, todo bien? So, I believe that it is not long before the day of the cut I have observed the trichomes and many are milky white and very few amber but I think it is now a matter of days, the plant wants less water and this is another little bell that makes me understand that we're almost there. Now I think I'm sure that mine is the phenotype that most relies on the Northern Lights but if I'm wrong correct me. Today we are at 53 days, another 3 and we are at 8 weeks.

 

[dubi]

Hi spigolaro looks like she is still reflowering and has a few things 'to say' before considering is ripe.
I would give her a strong feed and let her continue flowering for at least 2 weeks more.

 

[spigolaro]

Ok Dubi, I'll do that then and don't worry I'm gorging her properly I won't miss anything thanks again for the wonderful genetics you created.

Botrytis emergency, unfortunately what I feared, damn it, I knew, so reluctantly today I have to behead the plant. These days I have had too high humidity peaks and it was only a matter of time for mold to appear.

 

[spigolaro]

Hi guys, I had to cut the plant at 58 days because I had an onset of botrytis and I didn't want to risk it, even if it still took two weeks to mature but that's okay because the production was high and doing some tasting I can say that this herb slaps you in the face but positively, not a hint of paranoia but gets you high and in the morning it can put you in crisis for those not used to this strain overloaded with cannabinoids. Surely in the top 3 of my herbs, indeed I put it in the first place it was a long time since I smoked a strain that fully satisfied me and with Killer a5 haze I found it, too bad I didn't keep a cutting but I will do it again in the future because it is too much good.

Sorry to hear about the early chop, great job in the small space, My KA5H was over 6 feet tall even with topping. Great smoke for sure

 

[dubi]

Sorry to hear it @spigolaro growers must watch out and inspect frequently strains in late flowering with big fat colas looking for botrytis, since botrytis likes to proliferate inside such big flower structures in small indoor grows with not enough ventilation.

Anyway, glad you are pleased with the yield and quality of the outcome despite the early harvest by 2 weeks. Looking forward for your next round!

That’s a shame you had to crop it early but better than loosing it all to mold. I have a higher humidity in the tents this time of year and so I find using a hepa filter on the intake to purify the air seems to stop fungus from getting in and the air for the plants is lovely.
