🌱 Ghost Train Haze — Week 9 From Seed (Week 4 Flower | 12/12 From Seed — No Veg) This week is one of those moments where you don’t guide the plant… you observe it. She’s not just growing — she’s expressing. ⸻ 🌿 Structure & Expression From the very beginning, this run was about letting the plant define itself under a 12/12 cycle — no artificial veg, no forced shaping. And now we see the result: • Strong sativa-dominant expression • Long internodal spacing, but still stacking • Large, beautifully structured fan leaves • Upright, confident growth — no signs of stress She’s currently sitting around ~1.6m, and still stretching. Not aggressively… but purposefully. This is what happens when a plant is: • Not overhandled • Not overcorrected • Simply supported ⸻ 🍃 The Leaves (Worth Stopping For) Those leaves… honestly, they tell the whole story. • Deep green, fully saturated • Clean veins, no deficiencies • Wide spread = efficient light capture • Slight red petioles — genetic expression + intensity, not stress You don’t touch leaves like these unless they ask you to. And right now — they’re not asking for anything. ⸻ 💡 Light & Environment To adapt to her vertical push, the whole room was raised slightly: • PPFD: ~1600–1700 at the top • Still within tolerance because: • She’s actively stretching • Metabolism is high • No signs of light stress Environment holding steady: • 🌡️ 28°C • 💧 ~65% RH • Outside contrast: cold + humid (10°C / 87%) We’re not chasing numbers — we’re watching leaf response (VPD-driven). And right now, she’s fully comfortable. ⸻ Feeding Strategy (Autopot + Support) Reservoir (Mineral Base): • Plagron Terra Bloom • Green Sensation • Power Buds • CalMag (first in solution) EC: ~2.9 – 3.0 → High, but clearly within her tolerance Top Feeding (Manual, occasional): • Sugar Royal • Pure Zym Nothing complicated. Just consistent availability + letting the plant decide uptake. ⸻ 🌸 Flower Development Week 4 flower and you can already see: • Clear bud site definition • Early stacking along the main stem • Structure preparing for weight She’s not rushing flower. She’s building the frame first. That usually means one thing later on: 👉 Potential for heavy, elongated colas ⸻ 🌱 Why This Works (No Veg Insight) Running 12/12 from seed on a plant like this does something interesting: • The plant skips horizontal bush building • It prioritizes vertical structure early • Energy goes into: • Stem strength • Root establishment • Early reproductive readiness For genetics like Ghost Train Haze (naturally large, vigorous): 👉 This approach helps control size without suppressing expression Outside, this would easily become a monster. Here, we’re letting her be big — just within a controlled ceiling. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week • Stretch should begin to slow down • Bud sites will start: • Thickening • Connecting • Nutrient demand may stabilize or slightly increase • Watch: • Light distance (she’s getting close) • Airflow through inner canopy No major interventions planned. We continue observing. ⸻ 🤝 Gratitude To everyone walking this path with us: • The OGs who’ve been here from day one • The new eyes discovering the journey • The growers sharing knowledge openly • The communities — inside and outside this platform • The genetics, the gear, the support behind the scenes And yes — even the critics.

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.

Gave her a heavy defoliation! She's growing very strong, and needed a little thinning out! The defoliation promotes the lower buds growth, by allowing more light penetration! The defoliation also ensures that airflow throughout the plant is strong!

yooo ...plant is finishing strong 💪 this is no doubt going to be the best one out of this little 3 plant run of 3 different strains sweet seeds never disappoints and this plant proved that once again. the calyx just started to swell about a week or maybe 10 days ago revealing imposing dense hard and resinous nugs. not only that but dispite the scorching heat the terpines are making their presence known in a big way, which is pretty amazing. my experirnce has shown me that rarely the terps stay on the plant with the kind of heat she was subject to. I haven't yet smelled a smelly cannabis plant I didn't like, even the ones with diesel and cat pee scents but when I say this one is pleasant - I really mean it. Even a non cannabis enthusiast would love this aroma. She gives off mouthwatering sweet tropical aromas, very floral/fruity very nice indeed, I keep associating it to papayas. not that papays have strong smell but she smells like papays taste (if that makes sense) Anyway... fool proof genetics by sweet seeds. Took longer than the name of the strain led me to believe but just by looking at it its going to be worth every second. I have already been flushing for 14 days but I'm going to wait till she dries give her another really good flush (maybe 2 even, idk) and wait for soil to dry up before giving her the big chopity chop chop. so thats probably going to be another 5 - 9 days. can't wait to indulge in these beautiful flowers

A more difficult week. I've been battling the water consumption on two of the girls. I ordered and hooked up the Blumats auto watering system. I followed the instructions to a T but they don't work on those settings for this type of plant. They must be recommending for succulents cause the girls dried out right away with the settings. So I've been slowing dialing it in the get the proper amount to release. This is the other girl consuming a lot. But with the auto watering system she's holding her own. Dimmed to 80% Here are the lights details: Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 150W LED Model: MN150-022 Spectrum mode: V1 Efficacy: 2.8 umol/J Thanks for stopping by!

Day 67. Finally I have decided to harvest a part of the plant first and let the other one mature a few more days. Because i left the other part of the plant maturing I cant use the cabinet to dry her. So I had to make room in my closet. Humidity is 45-55% and I have added a small PC fan to move the air a little ... the last time I dried there it took at least 10 days. I'm happy with the result to be my first minigrow. The development of the plant has gone well despite my screw-ups and has given a lot of buds, I hoped they would have been a little more dense, but it was my fault to subject the plant to an excess of nitrogen. Let's see how the second cut is going, I hope they get more fat :D 1st cut weight wet: 110 gr. Minigrow 2.0 will be much better!

re-transplant into same pot to lower the plant as it was stretching....also lowered light

I decided to add a bit more of the base bloom nutrients cause this girl is just begging for it, I feel it. Also the healthiest girl I ever grew so yeah im hyped to see how she will do in the next few weeks, about 2 more weeks then we will start with Overdrive, after that I wont be able to tell that its the same plant. Btw shes running through 10l of water in about 3-4 days so yeah thirsty hahah.

Día 37: Riego con Sensizym 2ml/l Día 39: Riego con Base Sensi Bloom A+B 2,5 ml/l, Big Bud 2 ml/l, Bud Candy 2ml/l, B-52 2ml/l y Super Silver de Agrobeta 0,1ml/l. Día 41:Riego con Base Sensi Bloom A+B 2,5 ml/l, Big Bud 2 ml/l, Bud Candy 2ml/l, B-52 2ml/l y Super Silver de Agrobeta 0,1ml/l.

So the older plant finally started flowering after 6 weeks and a couple days of veg. AH#2 looking very healthy, seems to be taking to the nutrients well :)

Transplanted into 3gal fabric pot did some defol lst

11 Noviembre: Primer riego con 2.5EC y 5.9pH, runoff de 2.9EC y 6.2pH, en una semana más ya deberían estar recibiendo 3.0EC y seguir con esa concentración por todo el cultivo. Alturas están entre 15cm y 20cm. 13 Noviembre: Riego 2.5EC y 5.9pH, runoff de 3.3EC y 6.2pH. Hoy se removieron los primeros nodos de cada planta y se les hizo poda apical. 14 Noviembre: Riego 2.5EC y 5.9pH, runoff de 3.3EC y 6.2pH en la mañana. En la tarde se realizó transplante a maceteros definitivos de 5 litros con 4 litros de sustrato aprox. el cual fue pre cargado hasta la capacidad de campo, con 3.0EC y 5.8pH, desde este punto se debe esperar un par de días hasta que el dryback(secado) del sustrato sea de un 35-40%, lo cual vendría siendo el primer P3 del cultivo, una vez se alcance ese porcentaje de secado, se comenzará con los primeros riegos de precisión llamados P1.

4/26 WATERED EVERYTHING WITH A SHOT GLASS. WOW. They've exploded in growth in after watering. I came to a plant that was a little limp as it got bigger top heavy. I weighed the cup and it seemed to be in range. I just mounded up soil around it and "spritzed" the soil I just added (as it was dry as fuck. That worked for the other one and it's doing great now. Im wondering if this plant is drinking less water than the rest of the plants. I think I may have given it slightly less water due to its weight. Either over or underwatering (it would HAVE to be underwatering) OR the taproot might be caught in that jiffy pellet net. That was my only thought. I didn't do a very good job of ripping thos nets at transplant and with these little amounts of water I could see it taking longer to degrade. I'm waiting until morningvto check on it. Girls are taking off! UPDATE: Went back over at 3pm and everything was even bigger. The one plant that was drooping that I added soil too is doing fine. I weighed a dry cup of soil then weighed that plant and it was within 40 grams. I think everything's good. I was going to slow the water down on that one but I'll check tomm when I water. 4/27 WATERED EVERYTHING WITH A SHOT GLASS. Everything is exploding in growth. I filled in some more soil on my 10th planet cups. They are growing very fast. I have one purple punch that seems to be growing at a much slower pace. It may get culled or given away if it doesn't pull out. I have an idea it probably has something to do with the netting on the jiffy pots not degrading or something because I'm giving so little water. I'll start nutes once they get bigger (at half dose). That piece of seed is still stuck to the stalk of the plant that is behind in growth. I sprayed it and I'll keep an eye on it. I don't want to damage the stalk if I can help it. UPDATE: Went back over at seven and everything looked great. I don't know how but it seems they get significantly bigger I'm a matter of 12 hours. I think I'm going into 3's with these next. I'm picking up the soil for that tomorrow. I'll wait a little bit before I give them anything. Even silica. If it's not broke don't fix it. 4/28 Plants are exploding in growth. The other one I thought might be dampening is completely fine. I'm going to hold off on nutes. I'm unsure whether to transplant to 1's or 3's. I'm leaning towards 3's but I want them good and rooted before a transplant. I asked my buddy amd he said to hold off on the silica, or other nutes. Frogs got plenty especially since I'm only wateringva shot glass every other. I can tell they're goingvto need more soon. Grabbing soil today but won't be wins plants until I cam squeeze the cup and feel it full of roots. Next time clear cups in solo cups 4/29 WATERED EVERYTHING WITH A SOLO CUP BUT THE LITTLE PLANT. That plant has a piece of seed stuck to the stalk and I was wondering if that could be tge problem. After no results spraying for several days I attempted to remove it. Plant fell side ways. I propped it up but I'm probably gonna cull this one soon. I think roots may be caught in jiffy net. Everything elsecis FLOURISHING! Grabbing soil fircthe next transplant Monday. I just want to make sure everything is rooted REAL GOOD before any transplant occurs. 4/30 Holy Shit!! Plants literally grew at least an inch overnight after watering! Things are going great. One purple punch seedling is behind but that's ok. It will either catch up or it won't. I poisoned the inside of the cage where thecearwigs were and applied a 12 month barrier spray on the wood. Hopfully this will solve my earwig problem. Man I'm getting excited! I don't have HUGE clones but I've got GREAT GENETICS and no pests! I'll take it 5/1 It's been raining for days. I wasn't going to water today after my conversation with a friend but I DID water each plant but the small purple punch with a shot glass. They have taken off at an incredible pace. It's like they're growing inches in a day. Planning on grabbing soil and the remaining pots I need. Also need to take everything out of grow cage, sterilize bags and move the cage itself. 5/2 Plants are growing at an incredible pace. Even the little purple punch that was stunted is standing up all on its own looking strong. Zoom in on the stalks. They're thick af. Must be the HPS light lol. Oh well they'll be going in 3 gallon pots in a week or so. And then to their forever home. Man I love growing weed.

Orange Dragon Rider = Nimbus2000 f1 x Amber Dragon f1 both from Dragons Flame Genetics

F-MILF takes 70 % of my tent now...wtf Hope all this green gives some good buds at the end. Deficiency from last week is under control...added some Silicate from TA...no idea if that helped or anything else...of course...there is too much light photons for the above area...but wtf I cannot do the plant smaller...lamp is on 75% now und lower would be bad for lower buds. NL untopped (F-MILF) getting this week: (TA nutrients mentioned above are for NL topped from other tent...pictures follow) Aptus Topbooster 6 drops/l (increased) Aptus P-boost 12 drops/l (increased) Aptus regulator 3 drops/l Aptus All in one 0.6 ml/l Aptus CaMg 0.6 ml/l TA Silicate 0.4g/l 4-6 litre each day nutrified (thats a real problem) F-MILF cannot get enough...just makes me poor that fat big milf

Hello Diary, As we slowly approach harvest, Milky Way F1 has started to show signs of being ready to cut soon. Looking under the microscope, the trichomes have started to milk, so another week and it will probably be ready. The flowers have covered the branches and fill in nicely, they are as hard as Titan but I am satisfied. The leaves are still of a healthy green color, here and there some leaves feel but that is normal. Still watering every three days. As of this week, I have stopped adding supplements, I only water with clean water that I lowered the pH of earlier. value. The conditions on the farm are still good (unchanged), the temperature is around 28 degrees while the humidity is around 45%. Here's what it looked like last week. 18/06/2023 - Day 50. Watering. I prepared the usual 7 liters of water, lowered the p.H. at 6.0 I watered all three plants evenly with the hundredth amount. 21/06/2023 - Day 53. Watering. I repeated the same procedure as three days earlier. 24/06/2023 - Day 56. Photography for the end of the 8th week and after that I watered the plants. That's all for this week, see you soon.

I wish it was easier to upload media here. That's why is taking me so long. Stretching everywhere, she went from 3 feet to 6 feet in a heartbeat. She is running into the light. I raised the ppm because I'm going to turn 600 watts on. They look healthy, but too much legs.

😍

I decided to start flushing #1 and #3 Gator breath plants, since they already have good sugar and sizes, leaves are dark purple or yellow-brown. I will keep feeding #2 Gator Breath and both Total Eclipse plants, they are looks like need more time to form good sugar buds. Thanks for reading and folowing, cheers.
