🌸 Week 7 – Gorilla Cookies Auto Pheno Hunt Another week has passed and flowering is now in full swing across all 6 phenos 👀🔥 The differences between the plants continue to grow, and it’s becoming easier to see which phenos have the potential to become real standouts by harvest time. 📈 Current observations: Pheno #1 and #6 have finally started to catch up and are now slowly building buds as well 🌸 Pheno #5 continues to dominate the tent and has stretched to an impressive 130 cm The flower development on Pheno #5 is especially promising, with some bud sites already suggesting the potential for 25 cm+ colas if everything continues as planned 🔥 Pheno #2 and #6 are being overshadowed by the larger phenos and are clearly falling behind in overall size and vigor The structural differences between the phenos are now more obvious than ever, with some focusing on height while others remain more compact and bushy 💡 Environment & setup: The grow has now reached its current limits in terms of space and lighting: Light fixture raised to its maximum height Light intensity increased to 80% Summer temperatures pushing the tent up to around 32°C ☀️ Relative humidity averaging around 67% Despite the higher temperatures, the plants are still pushing forward and stacking flowers nicely. The next few weeks will be all about bud development, density, and resin production. 🏆 At the moment, Pheno #5 is definitely demanding attention, but there is still plenty of time for surprises. Sometimes the biggest plant doesn't end up being the best one, and that's exactly what makes a pheno hunt so exciting. 💬 Which pheno do you think will come out on top when harvest day arrives?

🌱 Ghost Train Ace — Week 10 From Seed (Week 5 Flower) “The Rise of Big Mama” 🔁 Quick Recap — How We Got Here This run has been unique from day one. 12/12 straight from seed — no traditional veg phase — letting each plant express itself naturally from the start. What we’re seeing now is a perfect example of what happens when strong genetics meet minimal restriction: • Explosive vertical growth • Natural structure formation • Zero training, just guidance And now, one plant has clearly stepped forward. Big Mama — standing around 180–183 cm, claiming her space, her light, and her identity. ⸻ 🌿 The Star of the Room From this point forward, the focus shifts. The other plants are doing well and will get their final report — but this one… this one is something special. • Massive vertical structure • Strong lateral branching • Bud sites stacking clean and aggressively • Resin already forming heavily for this stage And one of the most beautiful signs: 💧 Constant transpiration (“always praying and sweating”) → This is a plant fully engaged with her environment ⸻ 💡 Light Intensity — Controlled Chaos PPFD ranges: • Top canopy: ~1500 PPFD • Lower canopy: ~800 PPFD This variation is not a flaw — it’s a reflection of natural structure. Because: • Different heights = different light exposure • Different phenotypic expression = different light tolerance And she’s handling it like a champion. 👉 The top buds are pushing high photosynthetic limits 👉 Lower sites still receive enough energy to develop properly This creates: • Strong apical dominance • But still productive secondary flowers ⸻ 🌡️ Environment & VPD Balance • Temperature: 26°C • Humidity: 60% • CO₂: ~1000 ppm At first glance, 60% RH in flower might raise eyebrows — but here’s the key: 👉 Leaf VPD is in a functional range due to elevated CO₂ and active transpiration What we’re seeing: • High metabolic activity • Constant water movement • No stagnation This is not a passive environment — it’s alive. ⸻ 💨 Airflow — The Silent Engine At this stage, airflow becomes critical. Not just for: • Mold prevention But for: • Gas exchange • Transpiration efficiency • Heat distribution across the canopy With a plant this dense and tall, airflow isn’t optional — it’s structural support. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Strategy — Why This Approach This plant is on AutoPots, running mostly mineral feeding: • Terra Bloom • Power Buds • CalMag Pro With occasional organic input (non-strict, intuitive) Why this works here: AutoPots favor: • Stability • Clean nutrient delivery • Consistent EC 👉 Minerals ensure: • Immediate availability • No buildup or biofilm risk in the system 👉 Occasional organics: • Add complexity • Support microbial interaction (even if limited) This hybrid mindset gives: • Control + Expression ⸻ ⚡ Current Parameters • EC: 2.8 • pH: 6.5 • Adjusted with: • Lemon Kick • pH Plus She’s feeding heavy — no doubt about it. Estimated water intake: 👉 ~1.8 – 2L per day Which matches: • Her size • Her metabolic rate • Her constant transpiration ⸻ ❄️ Frost & Genetic Expression (ACE Influence) This is where things get exciting. ACE genetics tend to: • Stretch aggressively • Build structure before density • Then suddenly flip into resin production And that’s exactly what’s happening: 👉 Early frost development 👉 Aromas already loud at Week 5 👉 Bud formation still expanding This is the transition phase: Structure → Resin → Density ⸻ 📏 Stretch Status Stretch appears to be: 👉 Mostly complete Any further growth: • Likely minimal • Focus shifting into flower mass and resin production And honestly… with a plant already near 2 meters — that’s a blessing 😄 ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week • Bud stacking acceleration • Increased resin coverage • Stronger terpene expression • Higher nutrient demand stabilization • Possible slight fade starting on older leaves This is where she begins to define her final form. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude — Always To everyone following this journey: • The day-one supporters • The silent watchers • The ones who comment • The skeptics • The OGs • The new growers • The platform • The community • The sponsors • The genetics • The tools • The lessons And even the challenges… Everything plays a role.

As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. 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.

Seguimos otra semana más de seguimiento de nuestra pequeña banana!🍌 Sigue tan espléndida como siempre y parece que toda comida que le de es poco. No para de comer la glotona. Supera mis expectativas en cuanto a la alimentación de esta planta,ya sé en el siguiente que haga con esta cepa hasta donde puedo llegar en alimentación.

It was easy to harvest she was very small jut cut it quickly without stalks the wet weight is 17 g of the buds. Smell is like spicy lemonish smell. This site has changed can not update and edit the comment section. The smoke is nice it is kind of relax and strong high. Not the best but not even bad. I like it.

Method 📊📊📊 She trained incredibly well and recovered faster from topping than the NL did to a fim. This grow was a slightly different take on a traditional manifold leaving the top growth tips from each 2nd node (first topping) in place. This gave us 10 main colas as opposed to eight and we also left in a few extra shoots which proved to yield just that little bit extra.😉. If we had the space we would’ve stuck with 8 monster colas. Instead, we tried to squeeze usable bud out of every square inch. Maintenance was a bit of a bitch - had to defo numerous times to keep the light penetration optimal. Which brings us to the grow light - I won’t say it was ineffective cause that’s just not true. But, if this one had gotten much bigger we’d have seen some serious diminishing returns in bud quality. The tops and middles of each 10-12” cola were dense and chunky but the lower buds on the outer branches were like giant fluffy larf pillows. Thankfully there weren’t too many of these and I might’ve been able to solve this issue with some yo-yo’s if I wasn’t so damn lazy and “😜” when work’n on the garden. So, grow light review now that we’re through a few cycles - vipar spectra gets a 6/10 from me. It will grow solid, quality bud but certainly has its limitations. Their manual says it’s 450w should cover a space roughly twice the size of mine. I disagree and actual wattage draw is more like 200w. I’m gonna try to stick to photoperiod SCROGs with it in the future. Only real way to max out it’s effectiveness. Big plus - it’s about perfect for this particular space: 1:. Medium 🎛️🎛️🎛️🎛️ Coco is now the go-to medium in lieu of soil when we grow indoors. I can’t specifically say that the growth time is sped up compared to soil because I’m always growing something different but - she did recover very quickly from her toppings and the drainage is wayyyyy better. The fact that it’s nute neutral allows us to dictate exactly what the plant receives at all times. IMO - more manageable and precise than soil. Include a regular diet of calmag and ur good to grow.: 1: Yield🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴 Oh man what a gong show😎. The book on this one says that you’ll end up having to add support for her as bud weight becomes a serious issue in late flower. RQS is absolutely right, I had three smaller colas on the perimeter stretch for the last corner of light and they just got weighed down by the bud and pretty much fell over😂. We like this. Now the numbers - i did the math twice (and while sober just to make sure😉), you don’t wanna do it, it sucked, so you’ll just have to trust me: 1:. Total dried yield for the kush alone: 3.32oz. This crushes the single plant yield for any strain grown in this cabinet to date by well over an 1oz. : 1:😎. Total harvest yield across both plants: 4.99oz. This also crushes the record yield per cycle in the cabinet by a full ounce!: 1:😎👌💪🤩. The stats say an avg. of 500-550g/m2. Based on the rough size of my cabinet the avg. should be 131.25g/0.25m2.... our actual harvest across both strains - 140.6/0.28m2. That’s pretty damn good and spot on with the specs: 1:.😎 Props👊👊👊👊👊 A great many thanks to everyone who stopped in and cared to take some interest in this cycle. There’s simply too many to name drop all of you and we truly appreciate and enjoy the comments, likes, support and feedback. Every cycle is a new adventure and it’s always helpful hearing from the experience of others. At worst, we learned something new and at best, we had the opportunity to pay that knowledge forward. Can’t say enough good things about this community - cheers GD, keep rock’n the kasbah!😎👊.00

I came back after vacation, the girl is ready for cutting, the rainy weather has started, so there is a threat of rot, you can say I managed to find just a few small pits in time and removed them and threw them away, the big and stiff flowers look fantastic:) but after a long trip I was tired, so I didn't take quality photos :( no everything else, I am very satisfied with the result I got:) its smell already lets me know that it will be good:) a lot of sugar leaves from which I will make bubble hash:) I will update the weight when it dries.

Harvest day 73 since the time change to 12/12 hrs. Hey guys :-) Finally the time has come . The lady was harvested. After the trichomes have been checked (70% milky 30% amber) as always, it was left in complete darkness for 48 hours before it was neatly trimmed by hand. After trimming, she was put back in the drying tent on nets. There they are allowed to dry for the next 8-12 days at 62% humidity before they are put into the jar to ferment with 62% boveda packs. After about 4-6 weeks in the jar I will swap the 62% boveda pack for a 58% boveda pack where it can be ready for another 4-6 weeks to enjoy :-). As always, the remains of the leaves are used to make Ice o Lator and oil. Of course, as always, there is a final update during the fermentation process. Until then, I wish you all a lot of fun with this update. Stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 👍.

First week in flower ended with some training yesterday and a feeding. I've been focusing on more regular feedings at smaller amounts and she has responded well. Her stalk is getting massive and she's recovered from a slight N deficiency 1 week prior to going into flower. --------------- Week 2 was just feeding and regularly rotating the plant. Doubled in size over the week and about 2 weeks shy of next defoliation. She is starting to become more fragrant and she's drinking up water pretty quick I water about .5gal every day at the moment feeding smaller amounts but more frequently. ---------- Week 3 was a regular feeding schedule and some defoliation.

Orange has bounced back amazingly after my light mess up and has settled back into a life of flower , it appears the only damage is that it added a few weeks onto the grow .

WEEK 6 – MARCH 7 - 13 week 6 for all but the younger 24 (which is the only one that is not flowering). I'm getting frost on the DG. I sacrificed the weaker DG- it got light burn and never recovered. it was growing but sickly. . I now have a light meter and they are all getting the proper PPFD. I am increasing the nutes faster in the young 24 and it seems to be taking it. I am trying to keep an eye on my ppm. So far no signs of lock out or nute burn - I will increase the levels quicker next grow.
