Okay growmies, I'm into the final stretch with these girls. And will get ready to flush, And I just cannot wait. Lol .They look amazing they smell amazing and i feel proud to have grown such beautiful trees. They have like an orange vineyard smell to them so I'm very eager wonder about her taste. Peace and love growmies.

Week 6 update: What up Grow family. These testers are growing fast and strong. Where in week 6 now and the swelling and ripening of flowers are going amazing. Still feeding 500ml/16oz daily as I've found that's the sweet spot for 3gal fabric pots for these. I'd say these probably have about 2 weeks left until they'll be finished. All in all Happy Growing.

🌱 Ghost Train Haze — Week 2 (12/12 from Seed) Folder #7 | Plastic Pots | Hand-Watered Week two is now complete, and these girls are clearly picking up speed. After a very slow and controlled first week, and a still-measured but improving second week, we can now see momentum building. By the end of this week, plants are pushing into their second to third nodes, with larger leaves, strong symmetry, and a beautiful lush green color. Growth is very uniform across all plants, which is always reassuring at this stage. ⸻ 🌿 Containers & Medium — Plastic Pots vs Grow Bags Unlike some of the other folders in this room, these Ghost Train Haze plants are growing in 15L plastic pots from AutoPot, not grow bags. Important notes: • Pots are not connected to the AutoPot system yet • Plants are currently hand-fed, same as the rest of the room • Medium is soil, allowing roots to establish naturally first This slower start is expected and welcomed. When plants take their time above ground, it usually means roots are working hard below the surface, building a strong base before top growth accelerates. ⸻ 🌍 Sustainability Note (Important) This run also brings up an important long-term consideration. • Plastic pots can be reused many times • Grow bags, once finished, often end up as waste • Soil from pots can be reused or composted more easily For future runs, this is something I’m actively evaluating — moving away from disposable materials where possible, reducing plastic waste, and improving sustainability without compromising plant health. This grow is part of that learning process. ⸻ 💡 Environment & Conditions Conditions are stable and intentional. • Temperature: kept warm and consistent to support root activity • Humidity: slightly elevated to help early-stage development • Light intensity (PPFD): appropriate for this stage, encouraging steady growth without stress No signs of stress, no leaf deformation, and no nutrient-related issues so far. ⸻ Genetics — Ghost Train Haze Ghost Train Haze is known for: • Strong Haze influence • Fast growth once established • High vigor later in the cycle • Energetic, expressive structure This cultivar typically starts slow, then ramps up quickly once roots are established — exactly what we are beginning to see now. This is a strain that rewards patience early on. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week Expect: • Faster vertical growth • Larger fan leaves • Stronger stems • More pronounced node spacing typical of Haze genetics Do NOT expect yet: • Heavy stretch • Strong aromas • Flower expression That comes later. ⸻ 🌱 Final Thoughts This Ghost Train Haze run is doing exactly what it should be doing. Slow start, clean structure, healthy color, and now — acceleration. Very excited to see how these plants express themselves once they fully hit their stride.

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.

144v Lux in tenebris lucet. Aristotle said "It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." Those who are able to refrain from judgement long enough to genuinely research and weigh the evidence from all sides of a given subject are those most likely to arrive at the truth. Those who instantly resort to knee-jerk ridicule and continue to believe whatever they were first taught are those most easily deceived. Very high light intensity can slow vertical growth. She just doesn't want to grow vertically any longer; once the flower is initiated, that goes right out the window. Apical dominance is shattered; you now have every single stem fighting for survival against each other, with none given particular precedence over another. That is some stretch for a week, explosion. Doesn't matter if they are crowded now; there is space up ahead, and plant perception will fill every inch of available space. The divine intelligence that drives plant growth is far more efficient than any canopy I could make or spread myself. No defoliation. Sometimes you just need to give her what she needs to fill the space herself. All I do is guide the initial framework into the desired outcome, keep everything else flowing and in optimal parameters. Fast-growing leaves to have a lighter green color, sometimes appearing almost yellowish-green, because they haven't had time to produce much chlorophyll yet. New leaves are soft and pale, but they will gradually darken and become a deeper green as they mature and are exposed to light. Every morning, new lime green, with the micros supercharged, may be immobilizing nitrogen in the medium, magnesium was creeping in earlier, so I'll try to hold the line and see what progresses. The ratio of sugar leaves to buds is determined by a combination of hormonal signaling, nutrient availability, and genetics. Sugar levels act as a key signaling molecule, with high sugar availability influencing hormones like auxins and cytokinins to promote bud outgrowth, while nutrient deficiencies can limit development. Specific genes also play a critical role in leaf and bud initiation, expansion, and the overall balance of growth. Buds are like balloons! Need lots of pressure to blow up lots of balloons! Sugar balloons! Plant transpiration and turgor pressure are crucial for bud development because turgor pressure provides the cell expansion needed for growth, while transpiration creates a "pull" that draws water and nutrients up through the plant to fuel this process. High turgor pressure is essential for cells to grow and expand, allowing buds to open and young leaves to unfurl. Transpiration maintains this necessary turgor by driving a continuous flow of water from the soil up to the leaves, where it evaporates. No holding back, this is it, 4-5 weeks of all-out war! What we develop now will be all we have for the final 4-5 weeks. The carbon to nitrogen (C:N) ratio indicates how much carbon is in a substance relative to its nitrogen, affecting nitrogen availability in soil through microbial activity. A high C:N ratio (like in straw or corn residue) requires soil microbes to use a significant amount of nitrogen for decomposition, temporarily tying it up and making it unavailable to plants. A low C:N ratio results in a more rapid release of nitrogen for plant use. The carbon-to-sulfur C:S ratio in plant residue determines whether soil microbes will immobilize or mineralize sulfur (S) during decomposition. This affects the availability of sulfate SO42, the primary form of S that plants can absorb. Mineralization is the process by which microbes decompose organic matter and release excess nutrients, like sulfate, into the soil in an inorganic, plant-available form. Immobilization is the reverse process, where microbes absorb inorganic sulfate from the soil to meet their own nutritional needs, making it unavailable to plants. Glucose typically uses more oxygen than sucrose in a medium because it can be metabolized more directly, while sucrose must first be broken down into glucose and fructose, which can involve additional energy costs and a slower overall process. However, the efficiency of oxygen use can vary depending on the specific organism and conditions, as some bacteria, for instance, can use sucrose for a growth advantage under certain circumstances by producing exopolysaccharides that are more efficient at oxygen extrusion. Why glucose is generally more oxygen-efficient: •Glucose is a monosaccharide and can be used directly by many organisms in cellular respiration. •It does not require an initial enzymatic step to break it down before entering the metabolic pathway, unlike sucrose. •Due to its direct use, glucose can lead to a faster rate of oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production in comparison to sucrose under typical aerobic conditions. Why sucrose might seem to use more oxygen in certain contexts: •When sucrose is metabolized, it is first broken down into glucose and fructose. This initial hydrolysis is an extra step that requires enzymes. •The fructose component is metabolized differently from glucose, and its specific metabolic pathway can affect the overall oxygen demand. •Some organisms may have regulatory mechanisms that lead to a higher initial oxygen demand when switching from glucose to sucrose, especially if the organisms have specific metabolic pathways that are optimized for sucrose. •While glucose may be used faster, sucrose might provide a growth advantage under certain oxygen-limited conditions due to the specific metabolic pathways and products it can generate. Seems my initial concept of sucrose was inaccurate. Really need to study up on all of this in the coming months. Take care. 9 To get the closest possible NPK ratio of 1-3-2 in 5 gallons of water: Add 2 tsp of the 7-4-5 Grow fertilizer Add 3 tsp of the 3-12-12 Bloom fertilizer Calcium can interact negatively with phosphorus and sulfur, add your Cal-Mag supplement to the water first if needed.
