Week 13 from Seed | Ghost Train Haze (12/12 From Seed) The Queen of the Room Week 13 from seed marks a special point in this run, and for this update the spotlight belongs to one plant in particular — the undeniable queen of the room. This Ghost Train Haze has been the outlier from the beginning. Same treatment, same schedule, same root space, same 12/12-from-seed approach as the rest of the room — but she chose her own direction early and never looked back. No veg, no special treatment, no extra time. Just pure expression. And she expressed big. At nearly 1.8 meters tall, she became the tallest plant in the room by a comfortable margin, stretching far beyond her sisters and building into a true vertical queen. Her main cola is massive, dominant, and impossible to ignore, but what makes her impressive is that the rest of the plant actually kept pace. This isn’t just one oversized top and a weak frame underneath — the entire structure followed through beautifully, with strong secondary flower sites and consistent development all the way down. She’s tall. She’s heavy. And she earned every yo-yo holding her up. At this point, support is no longer optional. The main cola carries serious weight, but so do the side branches, and by now most of the plant is being assisted to keep everything upright and stable. Late flower is no longer about shaping — it’s about holding the frame together long enough to finish properly. And she’s finishing beautifully. The flower set is now fully mature, with long, dense spears stacking hard and resin production spreading well beyond the tops. Frost coverage is exceptional this week, and the plant has clearly shifted out of “building” and into “ripening.” Calyxes are swelling, resin heads are multiplying, and the entire plant is beginning to wear that late-flower look that tells you the end is close. Not finished. But clearly approaching it. One of the clearest signs is in the fade. The yellow and orange tones now starting to move through the fan leaves are exactly what we want to see at this stage. With nutrients pulled back and only enzymes remaining in the water, the plant is now doing what late flower plants are supposed to do: consuming what remains, mobilizing stored energy, and redirecting everything toward the flowers. This is not deficiency. This is senescence. A controlled, expected end-of-cycle fade. The enzymes are helping break down residual material in the substrate, keeping the root zone active and clean while the plant finishes using what it already has available. The color shift in the leaves is the visual confirmation of that transition — less energy going into maintaining foliage, more energy going into finishing flower. And she’s responding exactly as hoped. This week also carried a fitting bit of atmosphere: the Red Moon. A small visual moment, but a very appropriate one. The timing lined up perfectly with where the room is now — because the room itself has begun to turn red too. At this stage, spectrum is being pushed more heavily toward red than white. The room is no longer being driven for broad vegetative energy or aggressive structural development. Now the goal is simpler: guide the final stage, support ripening, and let the plants finish under a warmer, more flower-forward spectrum. That shift is visible immediately in the room. The red dominance is stronger now, the whites are less prominent, and the overall environment has taken on that unmistakable late-cycle tone. Alongside that, the end-of-day far-red treatment remains in place — roughly 15 minutes after lights-off — used here as part of the final flowering approach to gently support the plant through the transition into night and help reinforce that end-of-cycle signal. Nothing extreme. Just small spectral nudges in the right direction. And the room is responding fast. She is still drinking well, though intake has begun to slow slightly — which is expected now. Uptake remains strong enough to show she is still active, still moving, still finishing with intent, but the pace is beginning to taper as she shifts closer to the line. That makes this week less about intervention and more about observation. Right now, trichomes are the real clock. This is the stage where structure, density, and visual appeal matter less than resin maturity. Frost levels are already excellent, but the harvest window will be decided by the heads, not the shine. For this run, the target remains the same: mostly cloudy trichomes, a light touch of amber, and still a few clear heads remaining. That balance still isn’t fully here yet. She is moving fast, but not finished fast. The room is alive, the room is accelerating, and she is clearly entering the final phase — but the resin still needs a little more time to land exactly where we want it. Elsewhere in the room, this week also brought the arrival of the Bubbleator — a welcome addition, and one that will soon have its role to play. Not for this queen, but for one (or maybe two) of her sisters headed toward ice water and a different kind of finish. That part comes next, and it’ll be shared properly when the time comes. For now, all eyes stay here. What to expect next week: more swelling, more fade, heavier terp expression, slightly slower drinking, and trichomes becoming the only metric that really matters. What not to expect: major changes, last-minute corrections, or unnecessary interference. At this stage, the work is mostly done. Now it’s about patience, timing, and letting the plant complete what she already started. As always — love to everyone following along. The longtime growers, the new eyes, the curious, the skeptics, the quiet supporters, the quick stoppers, the day-ones, the lurkers, the lovers, and even the haters. And love as well to the genetics, the nutrients, the tools, the gear, and the people behind them. If you’ve spent even a moment of your energy here, thank you for sharing it.

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.

Just wow on this body shapes, oils on the spiral buds

Week 14 Day 92 (13/11/2020)💧: Great start to the week with watering today and because all the girls are entering their 4th week of flower, I will again be increasing the BioBloom as per the commendations on the watering chart, but since the pH has been increased they are definitely looking great and have enough nutrients between the watering days. So today I gave the girls 4.5 ml of BioBloom, 1.5ml of BioGrow, and 1.5ml of TopMax for 1.5L of water. I think I will be giving the same nutrients for the rest of the week as well. Day 93 (14/11/2020): Not that many updates today actually. The girls are looking amazing as always Day 94 (15/11/2020): I wanted to check the trichomes on the girls today with a loupe to see how they are developing up closer but I have no idea where my loupe is :( Really wanted to look closer at the flowers but will have to find it first to take some close up pictures as well Day 95 (16/11/2020)💧: We watered the girls today and gave them the same nutrients as before. They were watered with 4.5ml of BioBloom, 1.5ml of BioGrow and 1.5ml of TopMax. I think the TopMax is definitely making the buds fatten up Day 96 (17/11/2020): Took some lovely pictures of the girls today. Was finally able to capture on camera the redness of the flowers (or at least on girl#1). It’s quite difficult to the get the true colours because of the way the camera perceives the light. Day 97 (18/11/2020): Just can’t get enough of the smell of the girls omg they smell so great. It’s kind of a mixture of citrus and spicy at the same time. Cannot wait to taste them Day 98 (19/11/2020)💧: I keep wanting to measure the pH to make sure that it is still above 6.0 but I haven’t had enough time because it takes a while, but I will make sure to measure the pH before the next watering. So as mentioned at the beginning of the week, I will be giving the same nutrients. I watered the girls with 4.5ml of BioBloom, 1.5ml of BioGrow, and 1.5 of TopMax. So far the girls are looking good and happy with the nutrients. I’m only noticing yellowing leaves at the very bottom because there is not enough light, other than that the leaves seem like all the nutrients are balanced well. Also it looks like have finally stopped stretching length-wise and started focusing on growing the buds because the height is the same as last week. But really amazing progress this week, I’ve included a video of all the girls in the tent as well so it’s easier to see how different they are!

I was going to upload the process, but the wiser side of me said no. So I've edited it out and some of the evaporation process can be seen. Bho/wax/honey whatever we care to call it

Ok so this week I did a defoliation and a tigh down too the netting , I really was not planning on doing such a big defoliation but the leafs became thick and dense and there was almost no light penitration down too the lower branches of the plant , so she is opened right up now and the humidity and temperature has dropped loads and the air is moving alot better around the leaves and branches , I will not take anything more off her now , I have also added Cal mag too the nutrients for this week only , I am very happy with them so far and being new too all this it's all very exciting , Thanks for looking :)

did some well needed defoliation looking a lot better. Buds are starting to get thick and heavy and covered in trichome. First bit of hairs are starting to turn orange.

The Zkittzz has been blooming actively this week 😎💪💪 The buds have grown a lot this week and continue to grow very actively 💐 A sour-fermenting smell has appeared 🤢😌😬😀, characteristic of this sort ☘️ - Trichomes have begun to actively appear on sugar leaves and buds 👀 I increased ventilation capacity to 💯% I had to increase the volume of the watering cup from 2 to 3 - 3.5 - 4 liters on this week 💦🙈🙈 because the baby began to eat x2 more.. 😛🍔

Hello growers. Last week i started flushing because all the trichs were milky. The plant got a little bit denser in the colas. The smell is amazing. Lets hope for some quality bud. See you next week. ElegantBuds

I saw the first pre flowers today. She looks healthy, great growing. Still struggling to get ph down. Watering with 5.8 ph water.

10.02. F22 Day 22 of flower and things are looking absolutely world-class. The stretch is finally starting to slow down. I began applying HST at around 1.03 m, carefully bending the tops to control vertical growth. Without intervention, I’m convinced these ladies would have easily pushed toward 1.30 m or more. The vigor is unreal. The canopy is now much more controlled and evenly distributed — exactly what I was aiming for. Honestly, this is by far my strongest grow so far. Everything just aligns perfectly right now. The AutoPots are running flawlessly, the BioTabs nutrients are performing exceptionally well, and the genetics from Paradise Seeds are simply outstanding. The plants are powerful, healthy, and full of energy. There’s not much more to say — it’s one of those moments where you just stand in front of the tent and think: this is it. I’m beyond excited to see how this finishes. Can’t wait for the end result.

A lot of stretching happened the first week. Week 2 so far so good. I will lollipop at the end of week 2. Thanks for watching.

Day 43 veg. These two girls are finally starting to get their feet planted and growing. I have been a little worried that having to hold the. back as I did the room upgrade and waiting for their NFT set up. C Banana has grown a lot of new growth Thisbweek and been stretching upward . I have been softening their stems and bending in the same place to encourage a nice thick repair and knuckle. I am planning to quadline them out and maybe a few 6-lined . The monster has been going well too. she is quite bushy now so hopefully will be a many headed beasty. The room is all set for the move to their NFT know so hopefully be in tomorrow and flipped in about 2 weeks time all being well.
