10/10/2022 - 64 days since my little girl sprouted from seeds🌱 The fifth week of flowering of my Mandarine XL 🍊🍊🍊 Nutrients: Jungle Indabox - this week I keep serving and adding Jungle Indabox Environ X - bud stimulator 🌼🌸🌼 Advanced Nutrients - Big Bud - I canceled the bud stimulator mix and stayed with Jungle Indabox because the girls got a little burnt, the classic brown color appeared on the tips of the leaves 🍃🍂 I stuck with Bud Candy, all my girls need plenty of carbs 🍭🍭 Atami - ATA Calmag - when growing under LED lights it is recommended to use Calmag and Atami is an excellent brand Training: With Mandarine XL, I did not defoliate as much as with BCN, it was not necessary, I mainly cut off the large leaves that shade the light 🍃🍃 Light: Believe - the best light of sponsor Mars Hydro TS 1000 💡💡 In general: The plant is strong, manages nutrients well, absorbs as needed. Its buds form mainly at the ends of the branches and are dense. She Is in full bloom, I expect her to bloom for at least another two weeks 🏵️💮 It smells really wonderful, she revealed her strongly fruity scent 🍋🍊 Thanks for the likes and you can follow me on Twitter 🐦: @ Targona666 See you soon 😍

It is day 27 and Most plants starting to flower so they are getting a mix of grow nutes and bloom nutes All looking really healthy and seem to be thriving and certainly drinking a lot more . Some side branches have been strategically trained to try and make most of space and improve yield Day 28 given water will continue with grow and bloom nutes as still getting vertical growth which I am glad to see 👌

Here we are with some new photos and videos. We're halfway through Week 5. As you can see, I went a bit overboard with the PK. All the leaf tips are burned. Whoops. Next watering will be a bit heavier, and I'll only give a half dose of Bioflores plus a full dose of Cannazym. Then I'll start with the Rokzbastic (Bloombastic?)* hoping it doesn't throw things too far off balance. I think by the end of this week I'll also stop the Bud Factor X – from what I understand, it could leave metallic residues in the smoke later, which would really bother me xD. I admit I've given Bloombastic with every watering except one, always at low doses, but I should have been more careful and pushed less, or at least alternated it more. Temperatures have risen slightly with peaks of 28°C (82°F), though most of the time it stays between 26.9°C and 27.5°C (80.4°F - 81.5°F) (lights on). With lights off, I can't get below 26°C (78.8°F) (except for rare dips to 25.8°C / 78.4°F). Right now the ventilation is maxing out, with humidity sitting between 55-60%. It’s on the high side, but this is the best I can do. The plants seem resilient though, even in these less-than-ideal conditions, and seeing them outside the tent with the lights off gives me hope. Any advice is always welcome! Everything I’m putting into practice comes from others' experiences, carefully followed, and info from friends both online and offline. Stay tuned! Peace.

Started the week out top dressing the plant with 1tbs of 4-4-4 and 2tbs of 2-8-4 and watered with 6oz to set soil. The next day I fed the soil with 2ml of Microbial Mass in 1L of water, and started low stress training the first node. Watering when dry and adjusting LST ties daily on first and second node. Plant is starting to flower on day 25! Looking good so far 😁

First time running hydroponics. And I’ll say it’s pretty easy although running into problems with ph rising cause of not using ro water so it started getting a potassium deficiency. I think I’m prepared for next run.

Our Ghost Train Haze is currently the queen of autoflowering, it has reacted very well to mainfolding/mainlining and has become very large with thousands of branches and flowers in construction everywhere. We have two plants, one left to grow straight that will show you only at the end and some flowers now that it is almost ready but directly in the growbox, those worked with the techniques are much more beautiful and fun to work with. The plant has an imperial structure, I would dare say also of a symmetrical nature, Wes ANDERSON would put it in his films. Among the many things I have done in my life I have been a graffiti writer and I love to make symmetrical pieces that remind me a lot of these natural structures. The structure created with mainfoldindg, mainlining, topping and lst vari is very pleasant, the plant has a wide internodal distance and flowers quickly so it is a plant on which I would feel like recommending these techniques which it is true can slow down the harvests but they give a satisfaction to the sight and an unparalleled fun in making them. We are still using soil, fertilizers and all the additives recommended by Plagron 100% organic. We are still in the early flowering program that maintains the same additives Power Roots, Sugar Royal, Pure Zym and adds the flowering stimulant Power Buds. Obviously the basic fertilizer is now Alga Bloom. The Green Sensation hero of the end of flowering will arrive and at the same time it will be time to remove power roots and a week later the enzymes. (The plant left to grow straight and early straight has been taking it for a while) ---- Decide on the right soil and calculate your fertilization program based on the soil on the official website. -- www.plagron.com Try a seed of this strain that drives us crazy.. ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/12511-zamnesia-seeds-ghost-train-haze-auto.html Zamnesia Description // From the day its cotyledons emerge from the substrate, Ghost Train Haze Auto will surprise you with its rapid growth and robustness. When it starts to flower, this short sativa will develop long and compact buds with pungent scents of spice, citrus and fuel. All the best that mother nature can offer is on ---- www.zamnesia.com

i run in a bit calmag defiency i dont know why, my only guess is overwatering, other plant (tangiematic) didnt have this problem with same feeding. maybe the light was too close and burned a bit faster trough the calmag as it has 2.75 par.

Start 12/10/2020 Finish 23/1/2021 I grow outdoors and use organic farming so there isn't too much to say. I just want to talk about a few things about strain: - Odor: not strong and very pleasant, I think it is suitable for both indoor and outdoor planting, but difficult to detect by the smell. - Bud: strong, many trichromes and fast growing. - Color: both plants and buds are green. - Height: short trees - Yield: good (because my country usually shines on 12/12 in sunlight, so plants grow slowly and bloom early so the output will not be high). Here's what I can say about this strain. Thank you for watching this diary and see you in the next diaries in 2021.

week three flower everything looks fine so far :D eight days after defoliation I water them with 1.5l every 48h the light I use was set to 80% and it hangs 80cm away from the tops both gorillas had thrown a few balls, but I removed them as soon as I saw them, I will keep watching them!

3/13/2024 - Day 15 Flower: Ran into some issues after the last watering. The newest leaves have some severe curling going on, and I've had a few leaves with some minor brown spotting. I'm not 100% sure what caused it, but narrowed it down to either TeaCo Super Tea, Recharge, or the foliar spray I did with Dr. Zymes Eliminator. I did the foliar at lights out, but maybe there was still some residue when the light came back on. Either way, I'm taking it easy on this watering. Gave them 4 gallons of 6.5 ph water mixed with Jay Plantspeaker Quillaja, Coconut Powder, and a half dose of Rootwise Bio-Catalyst and Yah-Whey. The curling does not seem ro be getting worse, so hopefully they will grow out of this. Also, they have started to slow on rhe stretching, which is good, because they are getting close to the light. 3/14/2023 - Day 16 Flower: So I've been looking at some of the more deformed leaves and I'm pretty sure the leaf curl and brown is from the Dr. Zymes. The leaves with issues appear to have a slight glossy residue to them. I'm guessing when the Dr. Zymes dried on the leaves, it had a reaction when the light came back on. Now that I'm into week 3 of flower, I plan to cut out any foliar sprays, so hopefully I'm right an the issue won't get worse. I had some seeds that I sprouted and forgot to use yesterday, so I made a 2 gallon Sprouted Seed Tea (SST) and added some Jay Plantspeaker Quillaja, Rootwise Bio-Phos, and a half dose of Fermented Comfrey Extract and Fermented Peach Extract. 3/16/2023 - Day 18 Flower: plants are looking good. Flowers are starting to develop and I'm already seeing the beginning of some tricomes. Stretch appears to be just about done, so hopefully it will be smooth sailing from here. The curling from last week has not gotten any worse. 3/17/2023 - Day 19 Flower: watered about 6 gallons of worm tea I brewed for about 24 hours. Added some Jay Plantspeaker Quillaja, BuildASoil BuildABloom, and Rootwise Bio-Catalyst. Also, did some minor defoliation of some of the larger fan leaves blocking lower bud sights. Still need to do more, but I plan to spread it out over a few days. 3/18/2023 - Day 20 Flower: Cleaned them all up real good. Took off all the large fan leaves, except for the top two, and cut off basically anything on the lower half of the plant. May have gone a little higher than I would have liked, now that I'm seeing it done, but too late now. Normally, i only like to take off about 1/3, but i guess we will see what happens when the bottom half is stripped. Always learning around here, haha. Hopefully I should have very little popcorn buds.

Transplanted em outside in the ground week 6 they got swamped on week 7 and got severely over watered week 8 I put em in new 45 gallon fabric pots and buried them a bit deeper to help root development they look better today then they do in the video....I'm a newb so knew nothing about ph and the 45 gallon pots have a ph of 8 very alkaline so there now not absorbing nutrient....bought ph down and going to start adding it to water and nutes apparently rain water has a low ph and it's raining again all week....hopefully it helps until I'm able to give them ph down....should be hard for them to get over watered in 45 gal pots...looking like a failed harvest

Fungus gnats coming with the soil might take the chance to come out now for breeding. i'm waiting with a 9 mm rifle. in the past i found 6 gnats in 2 of 8 x 50 l biobizz lightmix bags coming out of the soil. i could eliminate every single gnat successfully ;) rotating harvest: the little ones will be harvested completely when ready. at this point only the top branches of the big ones will be cut...and the new (basic-watered) pots of the new grow will move into the tent. 2-3 weeks later the secod half of the big ones will be cut and the second half of the new grow will move in... nutes: biobizz / soil: biobizz lightmix bloom,grow,topmax,activera,algamic + aminopower instead of bio heaven (too expensive) individual feeding schedule/once a week: veg: 200 - 600 ppm bloom: 600 - 900 ppm water: ro-water with: veg: 100-150 ppm calmag bloom: 150 ppm calmag

20 Weeks Total 12 Flower Weeks Harvest HARVEST - 12 Weeks, 4 Days - 2022-11-21T20:00:00-0600 Today (chop) is the 14th day since moving to 18/6. The Foxtailing of the top flowers indicates 1) light stress, 2) Reveg . . .?
 Even with 18/6 and TWO full weeks beyond week 10, I’d have waited another 7-10 days to ripen the Trichomes to my liking (>1/3 w/ vanishing abscission). As is - I know we’ve more mass - they’re both trichome laden - the smoke test will tell. Phenos #7 “Broader Leaved” demonstrated moderate inter-nodal spacing, stacking buds put to the terminal flower(s). Flowers started as tiny ‘sunbursts’ of pistols in the common form for broad leaved plants in general. She branched significantly more than I expected - the buds along each mainline cola are on a small stem that’s 1/2” - 3” long, with a 1.5” to 2” bud attached. The buds spiral up the cola, starting (with varying internal spaces) Ambassador Cartwright Ambassador Cartwright by IRIE Genetics Transition to Flower Afterglow X Arise (Clementine X Arise) X Arise -> Afterglow BX1?

16 day perfect slow dry. Starting cure. You can smell the purple in this strain. Will update after a short cure and smoke test and getting an accurate smell description. 40 grams total of dry weight nice sized buds and structure. Super natural and pretty looking.
