Greetings, fellow cultivators and green enthusiasts! Week 9 of our Apolo F1's cosmic journey has unfolded with a sense of anticipation and reflection as we approach the long-awaited harvest. Join me as we delve into the depths of this extraordinary odyssey, celebrating the growth, discovery, and botanical brilliance that has defined our journey thus far. Nine weeks ago, we embarked on this botanical odyssey with a tiny seedling filled with promise. From those humble beginnings, our Apolo F1 has blossomed into a majestic specimen, a testament to the power of cultivation and the wonders of nature. Each week has been a chapter in our shared story of growth and discovery, filled with moments of triumph, challenge, and unwavering dedication. As we stand on the cusp of harvest, we are surrounded by a sea of vibrant blooms, each one a testament to the meticulous care and nurturing environment we have provided. From the delicate tendrils of her infancy to the lush canopy of her maturity, Apolo F1 has been a beacon of botanical brilliance, inspiring us with her resilience and vitality. The floral symphony she has orchestrated fills the air with its intoxicating aroma, a fitting tribute to her journey of growth and transformation. In celebration of this momentous occasion, I have curated a special photoshoot showcasing the beauty and wonder of Apolo F1. From evocative images of swirling smoke to captivating glistening trichomes, each photograph captures a glimpse of the magic that has unfolded before our eyes. These images are not just snapshots; they are a reflection of the passion, dedication, and love that has gone into nurturing our green companion every step of the way. Throughout this journey, I have incorporated enzymes into our watering regimen, recognizing their role in promoting healthy soil and ensuring the vitality of our plants. As we prepare to harvest, I am mindful of the importance of nurturing care and sustainable practices, knowing that the soil we tend today will nourish the gardens of tomorrow. As we stand on the brink of harvest, I am filled with a profound sense of gratitude. To Aptus for crafting the nutrient symphony that fueled our journey, to Royal Queen Seeds for providing the genetic star of our green opera, to Grow Diaries for their unwavering support and camaraderie, and to the entire community for sharing in this remarkable adventure. Together, we have proven that with dedication, passion, and a touch of magic, anything is possible in the world of cultivation. Join me in the final chapter of our Apolo F1 Mission Diary, where we'll witness the culmination of this extraordinary journey and celebrate the harvest of a lifetime. Until then, may your gardens flourish, and your green endeavors be ever blessed by the spirit of growth, discovery, and botanical brilliance. #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience #rqs #ApoloMission #MoonHarvestAdventure #playwithlego #lego #legotime #legovideo #tothemoonandback More info and complete updates from all my adventures can be found - link in the profile description Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only Growers Love To you All 💚💚💚

July 26: Mimosa Shot has mostly caught up to the other plant in the wagon and they are now the same height. Did a fourth lazy compost tea. See video explaining how I make it using things like blackstrap molasses and Epsom salts both of which are cheap and easy to find at the grocery store.

Slowly Blooming ? flowering day 21

this is the beginning of the 4th week along with the publication of the end of the 3rd week, this is how the fourth week is received, another intensive pruning that has no choice but to do it due to the size of the indoor, which is working great for us and we believe that I will always work like this, I am happy, here then the pruning of its results a little before and after and how it is receiving this fourth week, with the threads I touch a little bit of hair I hope it does not affect much but all in favor of opening the field to all the branch buds alike.WE CHANGE THE MESH FOR A BETTER ONE AND OF THE IDEAL SIZE AND AGAIN WE USE THREADS THAT HELP US VERY WELL, WONDERFULLY

Starting to ripen but I guess they need at least 11 weeks to finish

im not training these at all im strictly watching them grow and studying how they are naturally. messing with the lights a little, and got some light burn on both plants cause the lights were wayy to close. but all that being said im recalibrated with the lights, added in the blurple light just because i wanted more specrtum. growth has been explosive. i incorporated fish shit into every feeding and watering this week and i love it so far.

Hey guys and welcome to start of Week 8! 🌻 Today is day 21 of flower so i went ahead and cut most of the plats Fanleaves off. It took a while but now the Airmovement is improved and the humidity should also be lower. I also hope I didn‘t stress them too much. From now on they will be reseaving less and less Nitrogen going forward. I hope the colours come through as well 🤞🏻 Thanks for following along and I will keep updating the progress. Happy growing 🍀

16 days of slow drying each plant with the environment controlled inside the tent with 2 meters. I have two fans on, pointing at the floor to circulate the air temps - 20 - 23 º humid - 50- 60 %

12 weeks total for a strange strange plant that turned out wonderful in the end!

WEEK14/8F // D92/50F-D98/56F Budporn-Phase1-Zielgerade In Blütewoche 8 gehen viele Blätter der Ladies #3&#4 mittlerweile sichtlich ins purple und bringen wunderschöne Farben ins Zelt. Auch Lady#1&#2 fangen langsam an rot/pinke Spitzen an den Calyxen zu bekommen. Die Ladies ohne Zusätze sind dem Ende etwas näher. Vielleicht wirklich weil nicht so viel Biomasse fertig werden muss wie bei den Ladies mit Zusätzen. Ein Stickstoffmangel konnte ich auch schnell wieder ausschließen.Bei einem Stickstoffmangel würde es zuerst die unteren Blätter betreffen. Ich bin mir ziemlich sicher das es der natürliche Fade ist und auch der natürliche Flush weil das Substrat nicht mehr viele Nährstoffe hat. Die unteren Blätter sehen alle noch Top aus. Klar werden die Blätter minimal heller als bei Lady#1&#2 die Zusätze und Booster bekommen haben, dafür das es aber "nur" Langzeitdünger einmal zu Beginn der Wachstumsphase und dann nochmal zum switch in die Blüte gab, dazu alle zwei Wochen mal den BioEnhancer zugeben, war es super entspannt und die Ladies haben sich mega entwickelt. Keine Mangelerscheinungen, nichts. Wenn man dazu eine automatische Bewässerung ins Setup nimmt könnte es nicht entspannter sein. Für jemanden der recht wenig Zeit hat und/oder viel unterwegs ist wäre das eine sehr Stressfrei Lösung. Auf gehts in die letzte Woche💪🏼 ______________________________ Düngen/Gießen: Düngermengenangabe nur für Lady 1&2 (links), Lady3&4 (rechts) bekommen nur ph-korrigiertes Wasser und alle 2 Wochen BioEnhancer.

Flowers coming along well, with frost now developing. Nutrient strength increased now they're gonna be eating a lot more. Remo grow reduced slightly now they're slowing their growth, but Bloom and AstroFlower have been increased to favour PK for flower development. Day 28 will be the last day feeding Growth Tech Liquid Silicone as it takes the longest to completely flush out of the plant. I never feed silicone later than this in flower otherwise you risk hard, black ash with a horrible burn in the end.. More leaves have been stripped here and there to slow growth and to allow the light to penetrate deeper, uncovering flower sites. Leaf stripping is a great technique to stunt the growth of selected branches, allowing the others around to catch up and meet the top of the canopy more evenly 🦊

Solo cup challenge continues to press along. Not much change, plants are in veg, growing and healthy. Still a few weeks before the flowers start so I hope to get a bit of size going before it does. Having fun and really like looking at the other entries in this contest. Check out WildeWeed, Butterstotch and BeanswithPork, silky, larimar, fireman

Hey guys that’s my first diary. So don’t be so hard with me 😅

🌱 Ghost Train Haze — Week 3 VEG Report 12/12 from seed | Vegetative phase ongoing General Overview Week 3 of vegetative growth closes with Ghost Train Haze showing outstanding vigor and expression. From early in the light cycle, both plants consistently display strong “praying” behavior — leaves lifted upward, posture alert and confident. This is not occasional; it is constant, indicating a very good balance between light intensity, nutrition, and environment. Running as a pair, they behave almost like twins. Structure, rhythm, and overall pace are remarkably similar. As expected in nature, one plant is slightly larger than the other — a reminder that nothing in the universe is ever truly identical. Still, the similarity between them is striking and reassuring. Growth & Structure • Stage: Vegetative • Flowering signs: None observed • Node count: ~5 to 6 nodes • Growth habit: Upright, balanced, well-structured • Leaf posture: Strong and consistent praying • Color: Deep, lush green with excellent vitality Internodal spacing remains tight, structure is clean, and development is even. There are no signs of stress, clawing, deficiencies, or imbalance. ⸻ Genetics Notes — Ghost Train Haze Ghost Train Haze carries strong Haze-forward genetics, and early signs are already visible in her behavior: • High responsiveness to light • Expressive leaf posture • Vertical intention without excessive stretch • Clear metabolic efficiency Haze genetics often prefer to build structure first, establishing roots and vegetative mass before revealing their full personality. At this stage, Ghost Train Haze is doing exactly that — laying rails before speed. ⸻ Photo Documentation This week, both plants were briefly taken out of the tent for detailed photo documentation using a controlled studio-style setup. The photos focus on: • Leaf posture and symmetry • Natural water droplets resting on the leaves • Rich green coloration under controlled lighting These images are meant to document subtle signals, not to dramatize the plant. ⸻ Environment — Room Conditions (Week 3) • Photoperiod: 12/12 from seed • Day temperature: ~26 °C • Night temperature: ~18 °C • Relative Humidity: 60–65% • Airflow: Gentle, constant, non-stressful • Solution temperature: ~21 °C • Substrate temperature: ~21 °C Environmental stability remains consistent across the room, allowing the plants to focus entirely on vegetative development. ⸻ 💡 Lighting • PPFD: ~600–700 (adjusted to plant size) • Plants are growing naturally into the light • No stretch, no light stress The constant praying posture confirms that light levels are well matched to plant demand. ⸻ 💧 Watering & Nutrition • pH: 6.0 • EC: 1.0 Nutrient program: • Plagron Terra Grow • Power Roots • Pure Zym • Sugar Royal Foliar: • Vita Race • Applied selectively and intentionally, not on a fixed schedule This program continues to support strong root activity, clean metabolism, and vibrant vegetative growth. ⸻ 🔍 What to Expect / What Not to Expect (Next Week) What to expect: • Continued vegetative expansion • Additional node stacking • Increasing leaf mass and canopy presence • Gradual emergence of Haze characteristics What not to expect (yet): • No flowering initiation • No explosive stretch • No need to push inputs Patience remains key — the foundation is still being built. ⸻ Final Thoughts Week 3 confirms that Ghost Train Haze is thriving. Constant praying, twin-like development, and calm confidence define this stage. No rush, no force — just steady momentum. Thank you to everyone following along, observing, learning, and sharing this journey with us. The train is moving — quietly and with intention 🚂🌱 FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

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.

Hey now, hope everyone is having a great weekend. It was a good week for the Strawberry Banana Auto, she was pushing her 7th node on day 26 so I gently removed the top, and I also removed the lowermost 2 nodes so I will have nodes 3, 4, 5, and 6 to work with. She got a little sad immediately after topping, but when the lights came back on after 6 hours of dark she was perked right back up and I immediately started LST to try and develop an even canopy. She is still feeding 4 times per day on Silica, CalMag, and GH maxi gro veg nutes. This light is an absolute beast, I now have it cranked up to 50% in the V1 stage, and it continues to keep everything green and more importantly with tight internode spacing. I will continue to LST for a few more weeks and transition her to flower nutrients once her vertical grow stops on its own or if I need it to stop due to height constraints. Thanks for stopping by, stay safe, and Blaze On! 💪 Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

Had to use some boxes to get the canopy at the same level, no time for training and different strains resulted in this 😁

Day 49: The end is in sight. Not gonna be the biggest buds but they’re still swelling. Cut out the silica and calmag for now so just plain 6.4- 6.8 water. Day 54- straight water and molasses, trying to see if I can wake up these microbes to finish out the next couple weeks

They are swelling nicely and rock hard already, could imagine in 4 more weeks the density 👀 ... the terpene I find is like bubblegum citrus pine and slight gassy.
