I am dropping a Grand Daddy Purple auto. I scuffed both seeds ends. I dropped it in water. It will stay there for 24 to 48 hours until a tap root shows. I will then drop it in coco, and dome till it sprouts. Thank you ILGM, and Medic Grow. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Day 21 from seed today, plants are growing good. Going to give some Microbe life and add some top dressing but that’s about it. Been doing LST on the one cookies and she is growing really nicely.

🌿 Week 3 – Vegetative Stage – Mango Kush + Lava Cake (Zamnesia Seeds) Grower: Dog Doctor Strains: Mango Kush & Lava Cake (Pheno 1 + Pheno 2) Pots: 11L Amnesia Fabric Pots Light: Future Off – Black Series 600 Tent Size: 8x8 (Shared Space) Climate Control: TrolMaster Ecosystem + Spider Farmer GGS Watering: Hand-watering for all plants (automated watering coming soon) CO₂: 632 ppm Room Temp: 27°C Humidity: 57.4% Airflow: Dual 6-inch exhaust systems + filtered intake Carbon Filters: TrolMaster AeroFan 6” + Spider Farmer 6” with GGS control ⸻ 🌱 Transplant Day – A Ritual of Roots This week marks a huge step: our girls have moved into their forever homes, 11L Amnesia fabric pots, and they’re already loving the extra space. The Mango Kush queens, along with Lava Cake Pheno 1 and Pheno 2 (only 4–5 days old, but already catching up), were hand-selected to move forward toward flowering. Their roots were strong, white, and vibrant, ready to stretch and expand. Fabric pots were chosen for a reason: Why Fabric Pots? • Air pruning: Roots don’t circle and strangle—when they hit the pot’s breathable edge, they stop and branch instead. • Breathability: Improves oxygen flow to the root zone. • Drainage: Prevents overwatering and keeps the medium healthier longer. • Mobility & structure: They hold shape while allowing movement, especially useful early in veg. These pots don’t just hold soil, they shape roots, which shape the entire plant. ⸻ 🌱 Soil Mix & Nutrient Support The super soil mix was created with care and intention, using select amendments from Aptus Holland: Transplant Soil Mix: • Super soil base • Aptus Mycor-Mix – Mycorrhizae to build root partnerships • Aptus Micro-Mix – Adds beneficial bacteria for microbial balance • Aptus Substrate Buffer Powder – pH stabilization & nutrient interaction balance Feed Mix (per liter): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml: Strengthens cell walls and enhances nutrient transport • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml: Structural support for fast vegetative growth • 💧 Aptus All-In-One Liquid – 1 ml: A complete, balanced base nutrient • 🌱 Aptus Start Booster – 2 ml: Roots, roots, and more roots Watering Stats: • pH: 5.83 • EC: 1.01 • Water temp: 18.5°C Each drop is measured with love, and the girls are responding with lush, deep green growth. ⸻ 🌬️ Airflow, Filtration, and Clean Breathing Air management is everything in a multi-strain tent, especially during veg. We’ve set up: • Two 6-inch extraction systems • TrolMaster AeroFan 6”, controlled through the full TrolMaster ecosystem • Spider Farmer 6”, on a GGS controller for dynamic response • Filtered intake to maintain positive pressure and pure airflow 🌫️ Why Carbon Filters So Early? While many growers wait until flowering, we use carbon filters now to ensure clean air, remove any potential VOCs, and keep the space fresh—especially important in a shared environment. It’s about starting with purity and keeping it that way. ⸻ 🧠 What This Week Is and Isn’t What it is: • A week of foundation setting: transplant, soil structure, environmental prep • A time of root expansion and big shifts in the grow’s energy • The moment our girls step into their long-term rhythm • An opportunity to fine-tune TrolMaster automation for watering, climate, airflow What it isn’t: • A week for high-stress or pruning • A time to push nutrients hard, everything is still about balance and observation ⸻ 🎥 What’s Next? Next week we dive into post-transplant development, what to expect, how to manage early stretch, and when to start preparing for training and shaping. 👉 Subscribe on YouTube so you don’t miss it, especially if you want to follow how two different Lava Cake phenos grow side-by-side with our queen Mango Kush. ⸻ With roots grounded, airflow singing, and the TrolMaster lights blinking like magic, DD (Dog Doctor) 🌱💚✨ 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Week4 D1 So starting this week plants still look strong but rainbow belts is drooping like she is thirsty but her pot is heavy so I am monitoring to see if she is just being dramatic or if she is getting a slight salt build up. Will water in 2 days and check the ph of run off. I am thinking it is slightly acidic. I also see slight tip burn on a couple leaves but they were just fed and it wasn't hot so I am leaning towards the acidic water. Week4 D4 All girls got 1.5G of dechlorinated tap water at 6.7 ph and thats it. Got nats so I've been using yellow sticky tape. They are stacking heavy so end of week 5 I plan on feeding them a final dose. You can see the light tilted to accommodate the different heights. Week4 D3 I said I would water today but I am going to let them go one more day before making a decision. Rainbow Belts roots may need to breathe a bit so before I make a rash decision I will monitor. Otherwise plants are stacking well and are getting hairy and frosty. Sugar leaves are getting more abundant. Week4 D4 Each girl got 1.5G 6.7 ph water dechlorinated and rotated and thats it. They all are growing well hoping we are on track for another feeding at the end of week5. Next watering will be compost tea to revitalize microbes. Week4 D5 The next day after the 6.7ph feeding they responded well so I think my guess of low soil ph for rainbow belts was correct as well as her drying out sooner. In 5 days or so I will water with compost tea. Everything is looking strong- smell is low but my average temp is about 73degrees. I am keeping vpd between 1.3-1.4 and will hold for a few weeks before bumping up to 1.5. Debating if I want to use UV B light- anyone with any experience let me know. Later growers!

Esta preciosa cepa ha crecido bastante rápido llegando a ser la más alta del armario, durante la floración ha creado unas increíbles flores llenas de resina que poco a poco se caían del peso de las mismas. Una locura de genética que todos deberíamos de cultivar al menos una vez. Espero que os guste estas bonitas fotos.

Here we are at the harvest of one of the masterpieces of the season, Ghost Train Haze Automatic by Zamnesia. ** We remind everyone that we have grown two plants per strain, one without the aid of any technique and the other instead worked with the techniques described below. Technique used // The plant was worked with the MAINLINING technique, particularly successful in this case because the plant with a wide internodal distance put a lot of body until it swelled like a pig. Better with the techniques or normal? It is a plant with a high distance between internodes, the Mainling was truly perfect. This time I am strong for the main lined plant. You can watch plant and I believe it will think the same This is another confirmation that MAINLINING on AUTOFLOWERING in my opinion is only indicated in plants with medium-high internodal distance. This is a real monster not usual for soil in 11 lt pot. Flower quality // The flowers are impressive, the classic haze shape is very long, some are really hard and heavy, I'm not crazy about the taste but by definition the pure haze taste is not among my super favorites but I love it anyway. Check the article in your language // https://www.zamnesia.io/it/guida-growing-cannabis/333-lavaggio-delle-ceme Trichomes // Here we have an absolute majority of milky and cloudy trichomes, still some transparent and some amber, it is not super ripe but for me it is fine. Fertilizers // I am very happy with how I managed to unload the plant which at a certain point before going to flush was fed for a few days only with additives and then went to flush and we are discolored enough. This is a yellow that satisfies me to go to crop and vaporize a delicious plant with no residue of nutrients inside. All Plagron fertilizers and additives in the green / 100% organic version have fully satisfied me. Choose your soil according to your style and calculate the sheet on the website www.plagron.com The fertilizers instead are found in convenient all-inclusive packages on the Zamnesia website. Try a seed of this variety belive in Zammi i superlove this strain.. ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/12511-zamnesia-seeds-ghost-train-haze-auto.html Zamnesia Description // From the day her cotyledons emerge from the substrate, Ghost Train Haze Auto will surprise you with her rapid growth and robustness. When she starts to flower, this short sativa will develop long and compact buds with pungent scents of spice, citrus and fuel. Music and frequencies // For about 4/6 hours a day my plants listen to 432 Hz frequencies made especially for their well-being and sometimes a bit of black music to give them those vibrations that only music can give. www.radionula.com All the best that mother nature has to offer is on ---- www.zamnesia.com THE FLOWERS ARE MONSTROUSLY LARGE. HOLY MARY.

Beginning of week... This plant has been growing for over a month now. I didnt expect it to come out this amazing.. So now I am creating the grow diary lol. I flipped it to 12/12 this week. She was just going to be LST'd but the top had broke off while making adjustments to the LST one day earlier on.. Damnit.. She's still gonna make some dank ass nugs tho! After 3 - 4 days of 12/12 she has already begun her stretching! End of week... She has stretched some this week.. Not very much in my opinion.. But some for sure.. Not many pistils yet.. Some but no nugs building yet. When you cruch the leaves you have defoliated from this girl.. They have a more danky smell.. Its crazy.. Different than other strains I have grown.. I didnt expect leaves to carry different smells also!

72 after 1 week drying and trimming As expected, the yield was not the greatest. This was a picky plant since the beginning and showed so many weird problems never heard before. Buds did not get too dense, but are super crystallized. It's the #1 in this matter so far, beating Gorilla Glue #4. The high is strong and good, makes everything funny and it's def not a couch lock. I'd say it's about 23% thc. I'll come update the post and stats after 1 month of curing and smoking. Peace

Week 4 update. It has been very busy lately, so I have been able to spend less time on the plants than I wanted. Nutritions well maintained. It has now become a collection of different types of growth. 1 plant grows up very wide and high and is already in bloom. The other is more elevated and is now also in bloom. The third bumps a bit behind it and only has some signs of pre-flowering but no buds. The smallest does quite well for its size. My idea is to use 3 different techniques now. For the 2 largest a scrognet. The other, second largest, I am not finished yet. Maybe make cuttings? And the smallest, I want to have 1 big top. No idea if this is possible in 1 tent but it seems fun. I keep the light schedule on 6/18. They are doing very well.

I cut the main top to have a structure with 4 main tops. all the rebirths change Hours 12/12 the name already says a lot, I cut the main top and put it on the vase, making it look more homogeneous to receive the light, I changed the light cycle in 12/12 for the flowering, it is a super strong plant thinking about what it has undergone for the first 3 months ...

Sigue creciendo bien, súper frondosa, semana a semana se le van quitando las hojitas que tapan los brotes y se amarran las ramas mas grandes al contenedor.
