starting to see some crowning. nice stretching going on. very happy with how it's all going (except for the wyze camera timelapse, which still stops working halfway through the week) I do have some weird stuff going on with one plant, I'll post some pictures, if anyone has any advice. the only thing I can really find online that looks like this is tobacco mosaic disease, but I don't think it's that. maybe this one plant had a little extra stress or something. I have some of that mosaic looking pattern. it's showing up mostly on one plant, and like two leaves on one other plant. maybe calmag defiency? i guess it can kind of look like that, and my RO system was down for a week or two so I had to use tap water, and to keep EC consistent that meant less nutes for a week or two (that was taken up by the tap water EC of like 150). anyway, super excited. wish i had more to do, but it's pretty much just riding it out at this point. was crazy busy with work this week, i wanted to have got in a good defoliation already but I will get to that this weekend. going to remove everything below a certain point, all the lower leaves and the lower nodes that aren't going to make it to the top. probably going to put a trellis net up as i don't think they are going to be able to support their own weight once they start to really stack. i may do one or two final foliar sprays, all organic stuff, but one last IPM and maybe one amino acid / coconut water / aloe / bloom boost after the defoliation, just to help them bounce back quickly as i'm going to be removing a lot of biomass. all that is organic and there are barely flowers on so i'm not worried about it. getting such a strong lemon scent off these already, skunk is starting to come in. can't wait to get some real flowers on them and for the terps to develop. i'm not going to judge yet, but i think if i was to run these again i wouldn't do quadline. quadline was super interesting to me when I first started growing, but after having a bunch of grows under my belt, really i think my preference is to mostly let them grow natural, maybe supercropping the main cola, but my favorite grows have been the ones i did the least amount of hard training on. not sure why i decided to quadline this run, but i'm happy with the even canopy so it's all good

Sorry for the delay was in a wedding this weekend came home and been trimmin like a dog the past few days but I gotta feed everything in this tent tmm so I'm gunna get some pics. If your interested in the pics come back tmm night. The only 3 autos in 1 gal bags are the mexican airlines, pineapple express and blue dreamatic. Theyll stay pretty small and dry out quick so they are tough to keep up with cuz I only feed when I'm feeding the big ones. I dont mix up separate batches for these I just dilute the big batch which is usually 10-13 gal at a time

Not exactly sure what it was but whatever ive done has fixed it for now 🤷‍♂️😂 take it as a win for now i guess 11/11/25 I hate scrogging so I decided to take it off. Ive got lst on a few places to help bring the middle up a little more then will drop the lst off again and leave her be.

Another great week, saw some great bud production and stacking. All great signs of a good yield. Increased the bloom nutrients to accommodate the plants demands during this intense growth spurt, while making sure they are balanced with a straight phd water feed to help break up any deposits that may be accumulating. When I use just water, I’ll water until I see about a 15% runoff, and test the ph of the runoff, should be within your 5.8-6.3 range. I’ve got lots of airflow keeping things moving to help prevent PM and pests. After every feed, I’ll spray a mixture of water, a drop or two of dish soap, and some type of essential oil, around the base of the pots and tent basin as part of my pest management/protection. I have yet to have any type of pests, despite growing in an unfinished basement situation. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦❤️👊

Hello fellow growers, I am pleased to start this new journey with you. I am also particularly excited since I am going to grow a Mephisto Genetics strain for the very first time, the famous Double Grape. I know you shouldn't believe the hype, as Public Enemy used to say, but it's hard to ignore the dithyrambic reviews when it comes to Mephisto. I sowed the seed directly in the substrate and it was popping out 3 days later. Right now the seedling is under my Mars Hydro TS1000, brightness set at 25%, lights are 80cm away. During my last grows I set it up to the max at all stages of growth, this time I decided to proceed differently and increase gradually. Please let me know in the comments if you think I should just push it to the max right away. I would like to thank HESI nutrients team for sending me a great Starter Pack! Shout out to Hesi_Official, can't wait to test your products! Thanks for reading and stay tuned for weekly updates! 😎

~ DUTCH PASSION / SUPER SATIVA SEED CLUB FAST FLOWER 'TESTER' A and 'TESTER' B ~ Well cannafam, here we go again on another growing adventure together! This diary will be special to me for two reasons, one because I have the opportunity to cultivate some new and exciting strains from two of the TOP breeders in the industry! The second reason this will be special to me is that I will be growing these two strains in a brand new greenhouse that I put up! I'm super stoked to see how these two ladies turn out in this new setup. On to the strains: 'Tester' Strain A info: Hybrid (I/S) | 6-7 weeks flowering | Fruity, Sweet, Candy 'Tester' Strain B info: Indica-Dominant (90%) | 7 weeks flowering | Fruity, Peppery, Sweet I hope that you enjoy this run as much as I will... It's going to be fun and interesting for sure! ~GROW WHAT YOU LOVE, LOVE WHAT YOU GROW!~ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: These beauties will be growing in a brand spanking new 10x14' greenhouse that I have equipped with automatic window openers, a complement of Hurricane fans and a de-humidifier/heater to help keep the environment as dialed in as possible. I started both tester in glasses of tap water, where they soaked for 24hrs. After soaking, they were placed directly into whole eggshells with just their tops removed to make a natural seed starting pot that I filled with a 70/30 blend of Coco/Perlite which was pre-moistened with well water ph'd to 6.2, then placed under a 50w full spectrum LED on a 24hr light schedule. Once, they both have their second set of leaves emerged, I plan on starting to put them in the greenhouse for 2-3 hour a day for a few days to help them acclimate and 'harden off' in the greenhouse. I'll be starting both off in 1qt pots, then transplanting them into to gradually larger pots until they're around 6 weeks old, then they will go into their final pots which are 25g fabric pots. I mix my initial medium using 3 tbsp/g of Gaia Green Organics 4-4-4 along with 1 tbsp/g of Gaia Green Organics Glacial Rock Dust for the trace minerals it provides, 1 tbsp/g of Down To Earth Kelp Meal, 1 tbsp/g of Trichoderma/Mycorrhizae, and 1 cup/g of Wiggle Worm Castings. I hand mix my amendments to ensure an even distribution throughout the medium. I'll be watering with well water ph'd to 6.2-6.8 and providing bi-weekly compost tea's throughout the run. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 5/1- Week Three of veg is here for the pair of 'Testers' from SSSC/Dutch Passion Seeds. Both 'Testers' continue to do exceptionally well despite temp's in the greenhouse reaching just over 90℉ at the peak of the day. Both continue to show great vigor, color and are both constantly 'praying'! 5/3- Watering both continues every 2-3 days depending on what the plants want. Both girls are looking like champs! 5/5- Today I watered both with 8oz. of well water, to which I added 1 tsp. of Uncle Willies Worm Tea Concentrate. 5/6- Well fam, the Third week of veg is in the rear view mirror for these two beautiful 'Testers' from SSSC and Dutch Passion. Unfortunately, I have to go out of state for 7-10 days because of a family emergency, so I won't have pic's for next week. I will have a family member looking after the plants in the greenhouse to make sure all survive until I return! Give your loved one's a hug and tell them that you love them... you never know when you'll never have the chance to do it again! Blessings to all!😎🙏 Thank you for visiting my diary, I hope you will follow along and hope you enjoy what I do! Stay Blessed!😎💚

on day 21 of flower the 2 lady have got a new Haircut. Also some composttea on day 22 of flower. Light hits the plants with around 850 PPFD. Both plants look very similar (same leaf shape and structure), but one is about 15% larger than her sister. They both look healthy and vigorous.

We are at 27 days of flowering now and they are starting to change colors now. The gorilla is really turning yellow. I could of gave her a bit of nitrogen but this is just a practice run with my custom bred seeds so I'm letting it go. Alot of frost showing now. They are loving the new fc4800 and 8x8 Grow Tent for sure🤘 another couple weeks and I should know more about the smell of them. Right now they smell more like the nuken but they are slowly changing to have their own unique smell. None of them smell like what the parents did. Except at the beginning of getting frosty they all kinda smelt like nuken. Like marshmallows. The monkey dough nuken smells like fruit loops and the gorilla smells like skittles.

🌱 Ghost Train Haze — Week 7 From Seed 🔁 Quick Recap — How We Got Here • 12/12 from seed • Mineral base in AutoPots (steady availability, no dry-back stress) • Occasional top-feed with organic inputs • Selective defoliation in the room — but these girls were left untouched • Multi-layer LED canopy + under-canopy lighting • Week 7 from seed → stretch phase still active And now? She’s around 70 cm, some phenos pushing 80 cm, praying nonstop, stretching like she has somewhere important to be. That’s Haze. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Snapshot • Day temp: ~28 °C • RH: ~65% • EC: ~2.9 (higher than the rest — intentionally) • pH: ~6.5 • Height range: 40–80 cm • LED full-spectrum, layered canopy On paper? Some growers panic at 28 °C in flower. In practice? Understanding numbers. ⸻ 🍃 LED Physics — Why 28 °C Is Not 28 °C Under LED: • No infrared dumping • Leaf surface runs 2–4 °C cooler than room • Lower radiant load • Different transpiration dynamics than HPS So if: • Ambient = 28 °C • Leaf temp ≈ 24–26 °C • RH = 65% 👉 Leaf-level VPD lands beautifully in early–mid flower comfort zone. And the plants confirm it: • Deep healthy green • No tacoing • No clawing • No light bleaching • Strong internode spacing • Constant upward praying That praying? Not stress-praying. It’s metabolic confidence. ⸻ ⚡ Why EC Is Higher on These Girls (~2.9) This is important. Ghost Train Haze is: • Vigorous • Long-flowering • High metabolic rate • High transpiration under LED She’s drinking more. She’s moving nutrients faster. She’s building vertical structure aggressively. If we fed her like the others? She’d outpace availability. So EC is slightly higher here to match: • Growth speed • Stretch demand • Structural building phase We’re not pushing blindly. We’re matching consumption. And the uniform leaf color across the canopy confirms uptake is balanced. ⸻ Let’s Talk Genetics — Why She’s “Late” Ghost Train Haze carries heavy Haze lineage. That means: • Longer stretch • Longer flowering time • Slower early flower stacking • Higher final terpene complexity • More cerebral profile Compared to hybrids or more indica-leaning cultivars, Haze types: • Take longer to show flower mass • Spend more time building structure • Finish later But what do they give back? • Airy-but-resinous spears • Intense terpene complexity • Electric, clear-headed medicine • Beautiful, elegant bud architecture They compensate. Always. ⸻ 📏 The Stretch Question — Will She Outgrow the LEDs? At 70 cm in Week 2 flower? Yes. She’s not done stretching. Haze typically stretches: • 2–3 weeks into flower • Sometimes up to Week 4 depending on phenotype Expect: • Another 10–25 cm possible • Internodes to slightly elongate • Apical dominance to stay strong Bringing LEDs up soon? Smart move. Better to anticipate than react. ⸻ 🍃 Defoliation Choice — Why We Didn’t Touch Her We left her natural. Why? Because: • Haze structure is naturally airy • She manages light penetration well • Over-defoliation can slow stretch momentum • She’s showing perfect airflow already Sometimes restraint is the better technique. ⸻ 🔮 What To Expect Next Week You will likely see: • Continued vertical stretch (but slowing by end of week) • First real bud site stacking • Slight shift from lime green to deeper flower tone • Increased thirst What you should NOT expect: • Massive bud density yet • Hard swelling • Early frost explosion It’s too early. Haze builds in stages. ⸻ Stability Over Reaction We are not chasing numbers. We are reading the plant. Temperature? Fine. Humidity? Fine. EC? Matching demand. Structure? Strong. Leaves? Praying but relaxed. This is controlled vigor. ⸻ Final Thoughts Week 7 from seed. Week 2 flower. ~70 cm. Still climbing. And honestly? This is exactly what you want from a Haze.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. 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.
