Lovely week 17

comenzamos la semana realizando varias tecnicas de cultivo tales como poda apical y defolicacion inferior hasta el quinto nodo mas o menos. seguimos a la espera de que sigan creciendo para ya pasar al metodo scrog. Saludos

- 3.5 gals in bucket - Splitting nutes in half (0.95 micro, 2.5 bloom, 1.5 calmag, 1 hydro) and feeding every 3-4 days so it gets full nutes over a 7-8 day period - 356 ppm for half nutes - started noticing browning on leaves

Wassuuuup my dudes 21 days into flowering and the results from the lst and defoliation are showing up. Multiple healthy tops and even the small nodes under the canopy are growing bigger, if all goes well I won’t have many popcorn nugs but I’ll have just big buds (let’s hope) I guess this also means they won’t stretch much more but I think some more height would be good for yield, anyway, can’t complain for the 1st grow and this is a process, there are no perfect grows! This week was also a week to add some more nutrients (the plagron) and it’s working very well for now! Let’s wait for the next few weeks, can’t wait to see the fatty buds 😂 Tell me what you think!

Hello everyone 😎 Week 4 of flower for the Cherry Cola auto from Fast Buds 💥 She grew fast with a beautiful green color,for the nutrient 4ml/L terra bloom & 1ml/L power buds from Plagron Next week Green sensation at very low doses ✔️ Spider Farmer SE-7000 70% Have a nice day 😋

April 26, 2024 Day 71 This week we focus on watering and nutrients. A secondary focus will be on a changing environment and light intensity changes. Both ladies had their reservoirs cleaned out and have fresh nutrients. It's also the start of late flower, so things will be changing with the nutrient dosage. I'll most likely keep the nutrients the same for this week, but I may start to drop the dosage a little for each watering until the flush period starts. So depending on how they look, I may change the dosage for this week's last watering. I'll be bringing it down 25%. So 8 ml goes down to 6 ml and 4 ml goes down to 3 ml. I'll change this for the next 2 weeks until it's just plain water for 2 waterings and then Flawless Finish. It should play out quite well. The lighting will also be changing a bit this week. I'll be dropping the DLI to 43 mol/m²/d mid week and will then lower it to 40 mol/m²/d beginning next week. I'll then drop it to 36 mol/m²/d the week after and finally 32 mol/m²/d for the final week. The environment will also be dropped from 77° to 75° during the day and from 68° to 65° at night. The humidity is solid at 47% and I think that's the best I can do for the rest of the grow. Both plants look great. They have tons of orange pistils and tons of trichomes. I'll be taking trichome pics every few days. One for each plant. I feel like it'll be a better comparison than daily pics. For the trichomes anyway. Anyway, they both still have time to swell their buds more. I'm not expecting big buds from these two. Medium sized maybe, but definitely not big. They just don't look like they will get that big. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.2° RH: 47.7% VPD: 1.49 kPa April 27, 2024 Almost all of the pistils are orange now on both plants, but the buds are still swelling. Interesting. I'll be taking trichome pics today at some point. I was going to yesterday, but got distracted with video games. Whoops. There's tons of trichomes. They are definitely frosty and continuing to get frostier. Nothing much to do today. Each plant got an inspection and passed with flying colors. There were some loose tie downs as well. Mostly from the crowding in the tent. So those got removed. Tropicana Cookies is looking super good now with her buds being everywhere and them swelling up finally. She could stand to get a few leaves taken off, but I'd rather just leave it alone now. No sense in undue stress. Tropicana C also looks great. She has to be the biggest of the two. Not the tallest, but definitely the most girthy. Lots of buds and also starting to finally swell up. I'd also like to mention the colors coming from both plants where the buds are nearly done. Lots of purple hues. You can't really see them from the small sugar leaves and frost covering it. But it's there. The lighting as I said will stay the same for the first half of this week. Then I'll drop it. However, I may leave it to next week. We shall see. The environment is looking pretty good. The temp is a bit high currently at 77.8°. the humidity is still at 47%, but I managed to get it down to 44% for most of yesterday afternoon. The DLI is a bit high today at 1.66 kPa. Nothing a small adjustment won't fix. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.5° RH: 45.7% VPD: 1.55 kPa April 28, 2024 Not a lot going on today. I'll be refilling the reservoirs later this afternoon. That's about it. I have a bit of a concern. Both ladies have really small buds, and I think they may have stopped swelling. I'm wondering if I have nutrient lockout or something. They are showing signs of stress. So I've already started dropping the nutrients down by cutting Overdrive in half as it seemed to have been the original cause of the nutrient burn. And the next watering will have all nutrients cut in half. Next week I'll drop it to 25% and leave it til flush, which may be next week anyway. We shall see. Other than that, both plants are covered in trichomes. They smell wonderful as well. Like orange and some other light citrus and gas. Smells super good as well as sweet. There is also a hint of cookies. The DLI will be dropped to 40 mol/m²/d tomorrow. I'm assuming it will only be a 10% drop on power, so I shouldn't lose much penetration. The environment is off today. It's warm and super humid with bouts of rain. So naturally, the tent environment is all wonky. The temp is at 75.5° with the humidity way up at 60%. I turned the AC on and now it's just a matter of tweaking and waiting. I may have to crank it and sacrifice some temp for lower humidity. It should be fine that way, but the humidity is definitely too high. Update: I ended up adding about a half gallon of plain water to both reservoirs. Just Incase I have nutrient lockout or something. They should go through that by tomorrow afternoon. Maybe late evening. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.6° RH: 52.8% VPD: 1.39 kPa April 29, 2024 No watering today. The plants are both still going through the half gallon of plain water from yesterday. Let's hope it clears up the nutrient burn. They look great with their trichome coverage. The only thing I'm pretty disappointed about is the size of the buds for both plants. I wonder what I did wrong. I'm guessing the introduction to Overdrive was about 2 weeks too early. Removing the Big Bud was also a major mistake I think. It should have stayed in the mix for 2 more weeks. Lesson learned, make adjustments to any feeding schedule to match the plants growth stage. Maybe I'll ask that question. The lighting was changed today. I dropped the power level down to 70% to get a DLI of 40 mol/m²/d. It's not perfect as the plants do not have level canopies, so some of the spots go all the way up to 45 mol/m²/d still. It's not a bad thing I think. The DLI was a bit high for those tops anyway. The environment is still wonky. The temp is fine at 76° to 77°. A bit high from what I want, but not out of range. I'd still like it down to 75° or 74°. The humidity is what's out of whack at 60% and it doesn't seem to want to drop. I have a heater on to clear out the room humidity and a dehumidifier in the tent working it's hardest. Which isn't very hard. I believe the fans are going on it. It may be time for another one. Something the same size but more powerful. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.2° RH: 59.8% VPD: 1.15 kPa April 30, 2024 Watering day. Both ladies got their full gallon of nutrients. I'm going to cut it when it drains down some with plain water. Both plants look good even though they have small buds. They are everywhere and seem pretty dense. So it's just a matter of time. Maybe another 2 weeks. Maybe less. Hopefully less. The nutrient burn was an issue, but now I think it's good. I dropped the Overdrive significantly, but I think I can plainly say, I have ruined my yield for these two plants. Lesson learned. Plain water at the first signs of stress. The scent is super strong now and smells like oranges and candy. Or something like that. All I know is that it smells great. The lighting is pretty good. No reaching yet, so it's definitely not too low. I may just leave it here for the rest of the grow. I read that lights don't need to be dimmed for autoflowers. It could be right. I've never dimmed the lights before. We shall see I guess. The environment is still wonky with the humidity being high still at 57%. I can control the temp pretty easily, but the humidity will not budge. I'll keep trying. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.5° RH: 57.0% VPD: 1.26 kPa May 1, 2024 Nothing to do today with these two. No watering needed, no light changes, nothing. I pulled them out, tooky pictures and checked them over. No issues pest or fungus or anything. The only issue I have is the nutrient burn. Some of the leaves are getting yellow spots on them and frankly I have no idea what to do here. Keep the nutrients the same? Cut the nutrients down some over the next week or 2? Go with plain water? Not too sure. I still see many stresses. And I think that is the cause of my tiny buds. It seems that I did take the Big Bud out too early and added the Overdrive way too soon. Oops. Lesson learned with this run. I don't think it's a matter of an over abundance of nutrients, but the wrong ones at the wrong time when the plants weren't ready for it. I'm guessing that's what has happened here. Both ladies smell fantastic. Super sweet and strong. Crisp, and not pungent. Refreshing even. Tropicana Cookies has some pretty hard buds and lots of them. Of course, larger buds are preferred, but as long as these come out fire, I'll be happy. Her branches also seem to be holding up nicely. Tropicana C on the other hand has weaker branches and the tallest top is starting to lean pretty heavily. A great sign for bud density. Both plants have phenomenal trichome production. It's getting better everyday. Tons of clear with a mix of cloudy and amber, definitely not ready yet, but soon I think. Very soon. Maybe another week and a half? Maybe 2. As I said before, I didn't change the lighting at all. It's current DLI is 40 mol/m²/d through most of the central canopy. The outside of the canopy is roughly 38 mol/m²/d. So it's all good now. The environment is still wonky with the humidity being at 59%. It's maddening. The room is 49% and the temp is fine at 75°. I'll sacrifice up to 77° if I can get the humidity around 50%. Not ideal for this stage in life, but it will have to do of I can even get it there. I do have a large dehumidifier, but it doesn't work right. When the compressor shuts off, it blows are that humid air right back into the room. I need a new one. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.2° RH: 56.1% VPD: 1.27 kPa May 2, 2024 Not a lot going on today. No watering, no trimming, nothing. I did change the light last night to 80% power. Tropicana Cookies looks great! She has purple coming out all over her buds. No fade yet though. I can assume that will be coming through in the next week or so. Her tops buds are getting slightly fatter and heavier than before. I hope it will continue to do so over the next 2 weeks. Tropicana C is slightly behind. She doesn't have nearly as many orange pistils and the purple is just starting to come through. However, she has tons of trichomes covering everything top to bottom. Her buds are about the same size as her sister, so they may end up swelling bigger than Tropicana Cookies when all is said and done. We shall see. As I said earlier in today's post, I changed the light power from 70% back up to 80%. I think I dropped it too early and need to adjust it accordingly. I'll drop it again in a week or so. Maybe less. Now the DLI is at 43 mol/m²/d inside and 40 mol/m²/d on the outside. The environment is still off, but not as much. The humidity continues to be high, but only at 55% verses the 60% it's been stuck at for the last few days. The temp is fine at 74.5°, but I think I can increase that a bit and hopefully drop the humidity down in turn. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.7° RH: 55.2% VPD: 1.24 kPa

Week 13 from Seed | Ghost Train Haze (12/12 From Seed) The Queen of the Room Week 13 from seed marks a special point in this run, and for this update the spotlight belongs to one plant in particular — the undeniable queen of the room. This Ghost Train Haze has been the outlier from the beginning. Same treatment, same schedule, same root space, same 12/12-from-seed approach as the rest of the room — but she chose her own direction early and never looked back. No veg, no special treatment, no extra time. Just pure expression. And she expressed big. At nearly 1.8 meters tall, she became the tallest plant in the room by a comfortable margin, stretching far beyond her sisters and building into a true vertical queen. Her main cola is massive, dominant, and impossible to ignore, but what makes her impressive is that the rest of the plant actually kept pace. This isn’t just one oversized top and a weak frame underneath — the entire structure followed through beautifully, with strong secondary flower sites and consistent development all the way down. She’s tall. She’s heavy. And she earned every yo-yo holding her up. At this point, support is no longer optional. The main cola carries serious weight, but so do the side branches, and by now most of the plant is being assisted to keep everything upright and stable. Late flower is no longer about shaping — it’s about holding the frame together long enough to finish properly. And she’s finishing beautifully. The flower set is now fully mature, with long, dense spears stacking hard and resin production spreading well beyond the tops. Frost coverage is exceptional this week, and the plant has clearly shifted out of “building” and into “ripening.” Calyxes are swelling, resin heads are multiplying, and the entire plant is beginning to wear that late-flower look that tells you the end is close. Not finished. But clearly approaching it. One of the clearest signs is in the fade. The yellow and orange tones now starting to move through the fan leaves are exactly what we want to see at this stage. With nutrients pulled back and only enzymes remaining in the water, the plant is now doing what late flower plants are supposed to do: consuming what remains, mobilizing stored energy, and redirecting everything toward the flowers. This is not deficiency. This is senescence. A controlled, expected end-of-cycle fade. The enzymes are helping break down residual material in the substrate, keeping the root zone active and clean while the plant finishes using what it already has available. The color shift in the leaves is the visual confirmation of that transition — less energy going into maintaining foliage, more energy going into finishing flower. And she’s responding exactly as hoped. This week also carried a fitting bit of atmosphere: the Red Moon. A small visual moment, but a very appropriate one. The timing lined up perfectly with where the room is now — because the room itself has begun to turn red too. At this stage, spectrum is being pushed more heavily toward red than white. The room is no longer being driven for broad vegetative energy or aggressive structural development. Now the goal is simpler: guide the final stage, support ripening, and let the plants finish under a warmer, more flower-forward spectrum. That shift is visible immediately in the room. The red dominance is stronger now, the whites are less prominent, and the overall environment has taken on that unmistakable late-cycle tone. Alongside that, the end-of-day far-red treatment remains in place — roughly 15 minutes after lights-off — used here as part of the final flowering approach to gently support the plant through the transition into night and help reinforce that end-of-cycle signal. Nothing extreme. Just small spectral nudges in the right direction. And the room is responding fast. She is still drinking well, though intake has begun to slow slightly — which is expected now. Uptake remains strong enough to show she is still active, still moving, still finishing with intent, but the pace is beginning to taper as she shifts closer to the line. That makes this week less about intervention and more about observation. Right now, trichomes are the real clock. This is the stage where structure, density, and visual appeal matter less than resin maturity. Frost levels are already excellent, but the harvest window will be decided by the heads, not the shine. For this run, the target remains the same: mostly cloudy trichomes, a light touch of amber, and still a few clear heads remaining. That balance still isn’t fully here yet. She is moving fast, but not finished fast. The room is alive, the room is accelerating, and she is clearly entering the final phase — but the resin still needs a little more time to land exactly where we want it. Elsewhere in the room, this week also brought the arrival of the Bubbleator — a welcome addition, and one that will soon have its role to play. Not for this queen, but for one (or maybe two) of her sisters headed toward ice water and a different kind of finish. That part comes next, and it’ll be shared properly when the time comes. For now, all eyes stay here. What to expect next week: more swelling, more fade, heavier terp expression, slightly slower drinking, and trichomes becoming the only metric that really matters. What not to expect: major changes, last-minute corrections, or unnecessary interference. At this stage, the work is mostly done. Now it’s about patience, timing, and letting the plant complete what she already started. As always — love to everyone following along.

Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Ahhhh. Chop chop. It’s as amazing as I remember. Look for look, smell for smell and hopefully taste for taste with the drying/curing. I might come back and post weight if I remember to 😂😂

Seeds started to pop about 4-5 days after germination I got 100% germ on this run

She is done stretching started to pack on buds cant wait to see what she can do i grew the photo this is 1st freak auto...

the other two strains didn't resist the cold during the week, the two CBD strains that got lost in the cold. i will try another strains next week.

The Canopy was so full and i decide today to make another Defoliation for better Light Penetration. I have just 11-16 Days left for the original Harvest Date. Just hope that i don’t get some Bananas now somewhere in the Buds 😌😃 better to make it right the last two times. But i don’t want to take to much In Future Runs i know now how to do it Only give Water with PH 6.8 until harvest. No Nutrients anymore Maybe wait one or two Weeks longer to get bigger Buds and more Couchlock Effect from it

They’re getting close! I could probably chop the GSC and GC but the Gelato has at least 2 weeks to go. I was hoping to bring them all down at once and dry in the tent but I may have to figure something else out. I think this is the most aesthetically pleasing garden ive grown so far. I enjoy all manner of plants and in general the GC is the nicest looking mj plant I’ve ever produced. I’d love a porch full just for the look! Anyways, all these girls are a little stunted from all the cold nights. Dark temps under 60, a lot under 50-55 for most of their lives but they look good, and still very frosty. Never had gelato or GC before so im excited to try them out, thanks for dropping by!

Den Damen geht es super.

Ze Chem Bang is growing well. I did a solution change today. I switched her light times 2 weeks ago. Sorry I missed a update. She was lollipopped, and defoliated to open her up for stretching. Nothing else is really going on yet. Thank you Terpyz Mutant Genetics, and Spider Farmer. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g.

This was the topped gorilla cookies got to say I will do this strain again produced some nice size buds could of been a bit more dense but for a wet weight of 431g wet weight I’m happy with this one 4 down 2 to go thanks for viewing

Pulled and trimmed and drying out , had a great run with no dramas , top Genetics on display here the fruit is fruity , sticky and packs a real punch . Will grow again no doubt . Thanks heaps weedseedexpress
