Growing Grand Slam Mixpack

Cultivating the Grand Slam Mixpack is best done indoors as Super Silver Haze tends to be sensitive or unproductive in less than ideal outdoor conditions. To have a straightforward grow and achieve the best yield, replicate the plants' preferred environment. Maintain a 20 to 26°C temperature and 40 to 50% RH level. If vertical space is limited, restrict the vegging cycle to 1 to 2 weeks. Also employ the Sea of Green (SOG) method to keep to maximize the room and increase the overall production.

As long as the weather in the area is reliable, sunshiny, and warm, outdoor growing can be performed. Places like Mediterranean Europe, California, and Australia are most ideal. No matter how favorable conditions are, though, ensure constant monitoring and be ready to move the floras or provide shelter in case of rainfall.

Gold Leaf

While most cultivars have a parentage-based moniker, the name of Gold Leaf refers to the color of its foliage. Its entire upper leafage, including the sugar leaves on the flowering sites, turns to lime green before gradually transitioning to a fascinating golden canary. Although many cultivars go through a similar transformation, this one sports a brighter than the usual yellow.

If grown indoors, the Indica-looking Gold Leaf matures around 3 to 4 ft tall. It produces up to 650 grams of fresh buds per square meter after a 9-week fruiting cycle. On the other hand, a suitable outdoor environment allows the cannabis to grow into a 7 ft tall tree. The stretch also translates to more considerable cropping, with an enormous 800 grams of nugs up for grabs from every plant. In the northern hemisphere, harvest starts by mid-October.

Super Silver Haze

True to its name, the colas of Super Silver Haze have an almost silvery resin glaze that makes them sparkle. Underneath this shimmering coat of trichomes are nugs often shaped like mittens, peppers, and pine cones. Despite its Sativa-heavy genetics, the variant looks more Indica. Its broad-fingered leaves are plenteous to the point of concealing the very branches that support its foliage.

As mentioned, Super Silver Haze can be a bit challenging to grow. The plant is delicate and demonstrates its gratitude or dissatisfaction in the amount of its yield. To get on the flora's good side, feed it with plenty of iron, magnesium, and zinc. Also rear it in an indoor hydroponic system and put it under constant supervision for best results.

Given that conditions are optimal, cultivating Super Silver Haze in a controlled environment can produce 450 to 550 grams per square meter. The same amount can be expected from one plant in an open-air setting. Outdoor grows in the north of the equator are ready for collection by mid-October.

Purple Haze

The majestic beauty that is Purple Haze is not as tall as most Sativas. That said, it is also not as short as Indica plants. If cultivating indoors, employing the low-stress training (LST) technique SOG is most beneficial for batch grows. It optimizes small areas and cropping while keeping the haze more or less 3 ft tall. If lateral space is not an issue or when planning to grow less than 4 floras, topping is also an excellent option. After fruiting for 9 weeks, up to 550 grams of resinous buds per square meter are ready for drying.

If growing outdoors, Purple Haze matures up to 6 ft tall or higher. While it may mean stealth backyard grow is a no-go, its natural hardiness and high resilience against diseases and pests make it suitable for open-air cultivation. Due to such traits, even inexperienced hands can achieve up to 400 grams of sun-grown cannabis flowers from each plant.

Before popping Purple Haze seeds, note that the variant thrives in hydroponic systems or super soil. Meanwhile, during the flowering cycle, feed the Sativa moderately but with slightly more amounts of phosphorus to increase bud production. As for bringing out the plum hue of its leaves and nugs, provide a colder than average lights off temperature 2 weeks before harvest.
