Day 43. Girl is a bit droopy, just woke up ;) But she is picky. Looks like nitrogen excess is in the past, she is 57x57 cm square;))) hard to rotate. Had to lower her too ,most of all, she didnt liked it a lot ;) Now most branches are on wires, so i just reajust running ones to even canopy and tuck leaves. HUGE girl , great strain ! You need cheap light ? Check Mars Hydro TS1000 ! Happy Growing !!!

Es realmente impresionante ver el crecimiento que ha tenido en menos de 1 mes. Unos días más de vegetación… quizás sale alguna poda apical más, unos días y luego a florar 🌹😍👍💪🦍🦍🦍

Ghost Train Haze — Week 8 From Seed (Week 3 Flower) 12/12 From Day One — Zamnesia Room This report focuses on the tallest, most expressive girl in the room — the wild card aiming for the moon. She’s delayed compared to others. She’s the tallest. She’s pushing hard. And she’s completely in flower now. ⸻ 🌱 How We Got Here (For Anyone Just Joining) This run started 12/12 from seed. No long veg. No artificial holding pattern. Straight into reproductive signaling from day one. Room philosophy: • Match light to structure. • Match feed to metabolism. • Match environment to stage. • Read the plants, not the chart. We are not forcing uniformity. We are scaling intensity per plant. This Ghost Train Haze is one of the most delayed in flower transition — genetic expression, not environmental issue. She stretched aggressively. She claimed vertical territory. Thankfully we’re running a 2.45m tent, which allows: • LEDs high enough for safety • 1300 µmol at the top • Still enough power to feed the rest of the canopy No panic bending. No emergency topping. Structure allowed to express. ⸻ Environment Snapshot • Canopy Temp: ~28°C (now tapering toward 26°C) • RH: ~70% (now reducing toward 60%) • CO₂: 1000+ ppm passive enrichment • PPFD: 800 → 1300 µmol On paper: 28°C + 70% RH looks aggressive. In reality: Massive airflow changes everything. We run: • Strong horizontal circulation • Vertical displacement • Active intake + extraction • Under-canopy airflow Moving 70% RH behaves very differently from stagnant 70%. Leaf VPD Room VPD. Under strong LEDs, leaf temp runs slightly above ambient. Add 1000+ ppm CO₂: • Higher photosynthesis rate • Reduced stomatal opening requirement • Higher humidity tolerance • Sustained metabolism She’s not surviving. She’s pushing. ⸻ 💡 Lighting Strategy — Scaled, Not Ego-Driven We are not blasting evenly. • Big tops: up to 1300 µmol • Smaller plants: ~800 µmol Usable photons only. No ego lighting. Under-canopy lighting: • Reduces larf • Activates lower bud sites • Improves uniformity • Supports airflow stability We fill blocked zones. We don’t replace top light. Everything connects. ⸻ 🔴 End-of-Day Red (15 Minutes) We run a 15-minute red pulse after lights off. Phytochrome management: • Influences Pr Pfr balance • Supports flowering signaling • Does NOT extend photoperiod Signal manipulation. Not day length manipulation. We experiment. We observe. We document. No magic claims. ⸻ 🌿 Feeding Strategy — Week 3 Flower Adjustment She’s hungry. Soil EC: ~0.9 Feed EC: ~2.4 As long as runoff EC stays stable: We maintain strength. High metabolic demand → High input. Now let’s talk additions. ⸻ ➕ Why Add Power Buds + Green Sensation (1ml/L each) 🔸 Power Buds Early/mid flower stimulant. Purpose: • Encourages faster flower set • Supports early bud formation • Enhances transition speed • Helps synchronize hormonal shift For a slightly delayed genetic like this one: This supports catching up structurally. ⸻ 🔸 Green Sensation Late flower metabolic support. Functions: • PK boost • Magnesium support • Iron chelate support • Enhances carbohydrate transport • Supports resin & density At Week 3 flower: Bud sites are formed. Stacking begins. Demand increases. We introduce it now to: • Support density • Fuel aggressive metabolism • Maintain color stability ⸻ Current Full Recipe Weekly top feed: • CalMag Pro (always first when mixing) • Terra Bloom (base NPK) • Power Buds • Green Sensation • Pure Zym • Sugar Royal • Vita Race (foliar where applicable) Order matters: CalMag → Base Nutrient → Additives Why? Calcium first stabilizes solution chemistry. Then macro base. Then supplements. Avoids precipitation. Maintains availability. ⸻ Autopots vs Hand-Fed Plants Important distinction. Autopot girls: • Mineral base in system • CalMag + Terra Bloom + Power Buds at higher base strength • Weekly full-spectrum top-feed with full additive recipe Why mineral-heavy in Autopots? Because: • Constant moisture • No traditional dryback cycles • Salt accumulation risk • Organic residues can clog system • Predictability is critical Mineral base ensures: • Stable EC • Predictable uptake • Clean lines • Consistent delivery The weekly additive top-feed: Reintroduces biostimulants and secondary support. Two systems. Two strategies. Same plant biology. ⸻ 🔥 Metabolism Status She is drinking daily. Aggressively. That tells us: • Transpiration is strong • Photosynthesis is high • Root zone oxygenation is sufficient • EC strength is appropriate When they stop heating like crazy: We taper. We don’t force finish. We signal season. Light taper. EC taper. Humidity reduction. Temperature reduction. Autumn simulation. ⸻ About This Girl (The Tall One) She’s aiming for the moon. Wild structure. Long internodes. Strong apical dominance. But: • No bleaching • No tacoing • No stress claw • No stalled metabolism She’s happy. Very happy. Genetics are expressing. Environment is supporting. Structure is respected. ⸻ 🔮 What To Expect Over the next weeks: Expect: • Vertical stretch slowing • Calyx swelling acceleration • Resin increase • Water consumption gradually decreasing • Slight EC demand drop • Color stabilization before fade Do NOT expect: • Explosive vertical growth • Sudden nutrient demand spikes • Drastic leaf expansion We are past that phase. Now it’s density time. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude To: • The GrowDiaries platform • The community • The OGs • The new followers • The lovers • The critics • The silent watchers • The sponsors • Everyone sharing knowledge We grow together. We learn together. We refine together. This plant brings us into the same room. Across countries. Across styles. Across philosophies. One love for the plant. One love for the craft.

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.

Hola a todos! Comienza la semana 4 de crecimiento para las AK. Están todas creciendo mas o menos al mismo ritmo, menos la que sufrió quemaduras, que está más lenta que el resto. Seguramente que esta semana o al principio de la siguiente realizaré la poda apical, depende un poco de la "enana". Hay una planta que tiene los bordes de las hojas de color más claro, casi amarillo. ¿Qué puede ser? Si alguien lo sabe, le agradezco su ayuda!

From website seed stocker they said this BCN need 75 days to harvest. So, at the end of week 11(77days) is very nearly to harvest day. Next trichrome check found almost 75-80% already cloudy. I thing if no any problem should be ready in next 1-2 week.

Day 106: removed some yellowed leaves. Decided to wait one more day on water. Not adding any more nutrients. Assuming harvest in 14 days. Day 107: Added one gallon of pH6.5 water with 2tablespoons of Herculean Harvest Day 108: Removed yellow or brown leaves. Added no water. Trichomes clear. The urge to harvest is huge but will go 2 more weeks. Removed a box elder bug that sneaked into the tent. Day 109: nothing new to report. Added no water. Tempted to add nutrients once more. After taking photos, removed several yellowing or browned leaves. Day 110: did not add water. Removed some more leaves. Day 111: did not add water. She is starting to look frosty. Read some mixed messages about the last two week flush and am feeling the urge to feed again. Day 112: Replaced Viparspectra 600W with a Horticulture Lighting Group Quantum Board 288 V2 and Slate 2 heatsink. Very pleased although my temperature jumped to 81°F.

Hey everyone An average week. Jack 2 still doing her best and she is whitout a doubt the best girl of this round. All buds are swelling up and are looking very frosty. she is in her final period now. Gave one last feeding with nutrients and from now on its flushing time. By the end of the week (maybe 10 days) I will chop and harvest her. The night/early morning humidity is pretty high too. Around 90%... Wich brings me too NL 1 😪 NL 1 is another story Remember I said last week I found some budrot... Well it has spread to some lower buds too so I decided to end this grow. There will be something left to save but not much. It's not for me anymore too. Gonna give her away. I'm not a fan of plants that have rot in anyway haha. I still can't blame the plant herself. She had rough conditions and a stupid accident caused by me. Still a bit sad because she looked fantastic in the beginning. Oh well Will still do the harvest report next week but not sure if she will be still here then. All focus on Jack 2 now 🙂 Another grow to learn from Happy growing friends, see u next week 😉🙏

Flower Week 1 Day 0 to 6 - 4/22 to 4/28 Flip week and same day extreme defoliation to encourage top stretch. (flip day was actually 4/24) The defoliation of everything below the bottom two nodes really shows the difference of breakage on these. I'm glad I ran these through to the end as you can see the difference more directly on the same plants rather than 2 separate plants. (although Im sure you can gather the same information that way too) Feed this week was an auto pot reservoir feed at 600ppm total before add-ins. I used 450ppm Veg concentrate mix (recipe week 2) and increased to 150ppm Bloom concentrate mix (recipe week 5). I also added 1ml/gal of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) and ph balance this week was for 5.8 as it will be for the rest of the grow Videos Defoliation before and after Next week I plan to train the stretch and lowest branches for Schwazze defoliation on day 21 of flower. Feed next week will increase to 650ppm and it will be the first reduction of Veg Mix.

These two plants were germinated and planted and then I caught Covid! So I haven’t seen these girls for 3 weeks. But they’re looking healthy. A feed of FishMix should help boost them. I did notice a bit of thrip damage on the leaves. Looks like these little bastards are back. So I have sprayed with canna cure and I will continue too every few days to try wipe them out before they do too much damage. But full steam ahead now the plants are the focus of my attention from now on!

2.2 Plants have been moved into the tall RoyalRoom tent. Tent sits inside Ikea PAX wardrobe, I use RuuviTag meters for temperature and humidity monitoring and a couple UPS devices as a backup power for exhaust fan & led light. I have planted Alfalfa and red clover as a cover crop, also trying out Blumat digital soil humidity meters this round. PPDF at canopy level is at 400-450umol/m2/s, there is a possibility to swap out the solo led drivers for one big one if I want more power for flowering. 3.2 I tied down the tallest branches to the fabric pot to even the plant out, also gave the pots a little Raw nutrients B-vitamin foliar spray. 4.2 Worms added to pots and gave both plants 1L of B-Vit water. 7.2 Tied down the plants, also gave the right side plant 2 litres of water today, 1L for the left one.
