WEEK 14 I’m thrilled. The plants are developing beautifully. They’ve gained a good bit in height again, but the canopy has become exceptionally even and bushy. Thanks to the long training, many strong shoots have grown, and both plants have a massive stem and impressive root system. They’re slowly beginning to give off a light scent as well. A very sweet cannabis aroma is already noticeable. I believe this will become one of their key characteristics in the future. Due to their height, I had to remove my internal dehumidifier and now use it as an intake dehumidifier. That way, I’m also able to further reduce the humidity in my grow space. I only fertilized once this week because I repotted the plants into fresh Allmix a few weeks ago, so the soil is still very rich in nutrients. The leaves have a healthy color and the plants are generally in great condition. Next week, I’ll raise the VPD and begin fertilizing twice a week. Other than that, I’ll leave the plants to continue growing undisturbed and hope all my shoots soon develop fully into blossoms.

🌿🌸 Week 4 Flowering Update! 🌸🌿 We have officially entered week 4 of the flowering phase, a crucial period where things can get a little nerve-wracking. However, I'm happy to share that everything is looking great so far! 🎉 First off, let me express my relief that I haven't encountered any hermaphroditism issues like some unfortunate growers have experienced. I've been extra vigilant in checking my plants for any signs of bananas or seeds, and thankfully, all is going smoothly on that front. Fingers crossed, and let's hope it stays that way. 🤞 Now, let's talk about the progress of these beauties. The plants are thriving, exhibiting vigorous growth and magnificent stretching. 🌱✨ Maintaining the well-being of my plants remains my top priority. They're displaying a healthy thirst, as each plant continues to drink around 2 liters of water every two days. I've been closely monitoring the pH level of the nutrient solution, which has been steady at 6.11. This ensures optimal nutrient uptake and keeps the plants in their prime condition. Moreover, the TDS range is consistently between 1050 and 1150, providing them with the ideal nutrient balance. ⚖️💧 Speaking of the plants, I must mention how amazing they smell! The aroma is becoming more intense with each passing day. Today, I conducted a smell test for the OG and Oreo strains. The OG emitted a super strong smell of OG/Skywalker, while the Oreo strain has a unique and captivating scent that is difficult to describe but absolutely amazing. I can't wait to smoke that one! Tomorrow, I'll do a smell test for the Queen strain as well. 🌿👃🔥 As we progress through this crucial stage, I'll continue to provide the best care possible to ensure a successful harvest. Today (Day 22) marks the last day of foliar feeding with Bud Factor X, an essential step to maximize THC development and quality. This phase demands attention to detail and careful observation. 👀🌿💦 That wraps up this week's update, fellow growers! Keep your fingers crossed for a smooth journey ahead, and may your own gardens thrive. 🤞🌿🌸 Happy growing, lads! 🌱💚

This week the photoperiods showed clear progress in vegetative growth, with bigger leaves spreading out and new nodes stacking in nicely. Their color has stayed healthy and consistent, confirming they’re settling well into their 1-gallon pots. On August 26, beneficial nematodes were applied during a watering to boost pest prevention and protect the soil long-term. Humidity and temperature have been monitored closely, with minor adjustments made to keep the VPD in a safe range. By midweek, the canopy began to fill out more evenly, and the plants are looking strong and balanced. Overall, Week 3 has been about steady development, root expansion, and keeping the environment stable. They’re now building a solid foundation for future training and shaping as veg continues.

🌱 Ghost Train Haze — Week 7 From Seed 🔁 Quick Recap — How We Got Here • 12/12 from seed • Mineral base in AutoPots (steady availability, no dry-back stress) • Occasional top-feed with organic inputs • Selective defoliation in the room — but these girls were left untouched • Multi-layer LED canopy + under-canopy lighting • Week 7 from seed → stretch phase still active And now? She’s around 70 cm, some phenos pushing 80 cm, praying nonstop, stretching like she has somewhere important to be. That’s Haze. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Snapshot • Day temp: ~28 °C • RH: ~65% • EC: ~2.9 (higher than the rest — intentionally) • pH: ~6.5 • Height range: 40–80 cm • LED full-spectrum, layered canopy On paper? Some growers panic at 28 °C in flower. In practice? Understanding numbers. ⸻ 🍃 LED Physics — Why 28 °C Is Not 28 °C Under LED: • No infrared dumping • Leaf surface runs 2–4 °C cooler than room • Lower radiant load • Different transpiration dynamics than HPS So if: • Ambient = 28 °C • Leaf temp ≈ 24–26 °C • RH = 65% 👉 Leaf-level VPD lands beautifully in early–mid flower comfort zone. And the plants confirm it: • Deep healthy green • No tacoing • No clawing • No light bleaching • Strong internode spacing • Constant upward praying That praying? Not stress-praying. It’s metabolic confidence. ⸻ ⚡ Why EC Is Higher on These Girls (~2.9) This is important. Ghost Train Haze is: • Vigorous • Long-flowering • High metabolic rate • High transpiration under LED She’s drinking more. She’s moving nutrients faster. She’s building vertical structure aggressively. If we fed her like the others? She’d outpace availability. So EC is slightly higher here to match: • Growth speed • Stretch demand • Structural building phase We’re not pushing blindly. We’re matching consumption. And the uniform leaf color across the canopy confirms uptake is balanced. ⸻ Let’s Talk Genetics — Why She’s “Late” Ghost Train Haze carries heavy Haze lineage. That means: • Longer stretch • Longer flowering time • Slower early flower stacking • Higher final terpene complexity • More cerebral profile Compared to hybrids or more indica-leaning cultivars, Haze types: • Take longer to show flower mass • Spend more time building structure • Finish later But what do they give back? • Airy-but-resinous spears • Intense terpene complexity • Electric, clear-headed medicine • Beautiful, elegant bud architecture They compensate. Always. ⸻ 📏 The Stretch Question — Will She Outgrow the LEDs? At 70 cm in Week 2 flower? Yes. She’s not done stretching. Haze typically stretches: • 2–3 weeks into flower • Sometimes up to Week 4 depending on phenotype Expect: • Another 10–25 cm possible • Internodes to slightly elongate • Apical dominance to stay strong Bringing LEDs up soon? Smart move. Better to anticipate than react. ⸻ 🍃 Defoliation Choice — Why We Didn’t Touch Her We left her natural. Why? Because: • Haze structure is naturally airy • She manages light penetration well • Over-defoliation can slow stretch momentum • She’s showing perfect airflow already Sometimes restraint is the better technique. ⸻ 🔮 What To Expect Next Week You will likely see: • Continued vertical stretch (but slowing by end of week) • First real bud site stacking • Slight shift from lime green to deeper flower tone • Increased thirst What you should NOT expect: • Massive bud density yet • Hard swelling • Early frost explosion It’s too early. Haze builds in stages. ⸻ Stability Over Reaction We are not chasing numbers. We are reading the plant. Temperature? Fine. Humidity? Fine. EC? Matching demand. Structure? Strong. Leaves? Praying but relaxed. This is controlled vigor. ⸻ Final Thoughts Week 7 from seed. Week 2 flower. ~70 cm. Still climbing. And honestly? This is exactly what you want from a Haze. Patience now equals magic later. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude To the OGs. To the new followers. To the lovers and even the skeptics. To the GrowDiaries platform. To the GD community. To the sponsors. To everyone watching silently. Thank you. We’re learning together. We’re growing together. We’re documenting honestly. And in the end? We grow medicine.

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.

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 21/12/2019 - Fed her 1.5l of 6.4PH water with 0,5ml of each: Grow, Bloom and Max, and 1ml of each: Heaven, Alga-mic and Vera, noticed almost no run off, I use about 1/3 of the nutrient dosage on the chart, to achieve about 200/300PPM (500 scale). Did some light pruning also.

Week 13 (5/16/22 - 5/22/22) Moved the ladies into the larger grow tent Ladies recovered well from the topping

Both ladies growing very nice plant one is growing much quicker and the buds are getting very fat. Plant 2 buds will get fatter too next week. 69cm Tall plant 1 62cm Tall plant 2

I already imagine it with a lot of summer sun ... 100% recommended ... I will grow one of them again ....

Well week two is going very well both phenos one and two of the purple lemonade are looking very healthy. Pheno Number one has very slight deformation from the seed sticking on the seedling leaves for a little too long. Nothing too serious. They have grown an inch vertically in the past week and I would say they are off to a great start still. Patiently enjoying the growth! Thank you for checking out my diary leave a comment and I'll come check out yours as well! ✌️

22.12 • Cal/mag deficit looks solved, plants look healthy 23.12 • last watering was 1L / Pot right after repoting on 20.12 , right now soil feels moist 25.12 • added a bio CO2 reactor (4x 1L bottles with 800ml water, some mashed tomato and 100g sugar, 10g moist yeast) 25.12 • rotated one of the lights to maximize illumination 26.12 • watered all plants with 1L 26.12 • CO2 ppm went up from +-400 to +-600 i hope for some more as i increased room temperature to 26°C, (yeast should react more due to increased temp.) 27.12 • sunburn as the lights were under 30cm distance 27.12 • CO2 wasn't working when i arrived this evening, perhaps i used too much yeast, perhaps it was too cold, perhapy i need bigger bottles...either way: i removed 3/4 from the bottles and refilled water/sugar/tomato

Ya estamos casi listos para cosechar. Estamos regando con agua y solo lo estrictamente necesario para mantener hidratadas nuestras plantas. Tambien hemos reducido al 50% la potencia de nuestras luminarias LazerLite Pro 720w.
