Stackin’ Up & Frostin’ Over ❄️🔥 Time for another Red Hot Cookies update—and things are getting thick out here! 💥 We’ve officially entered Week 3 of flowering, and the buds are swelling up beautifully. They're starting to frost over with trichomes too, which makes every morning check-in feel like unwrapping a tiny gift. 🎁✨ She’s been looking vibrant and strong, with no signs of stress despite the intense heat lately. We had several days pushing over 34°C, so I’ve been watering daily to keep her happy and hydrated. The grow routine this week looked like this: 🔸 Dosed with BioBizz Grow + Bloom + TopMax every 3 days 🔸 A round of compost tea for those living soil boosts 🌿 🔸 Effective Microorganisms to keep things biologically buzzing ⚠️ I’ve paused the silica spray now that the buds are forming Oh—and some extra good news: Spider mites? Gone. 🕷️🚫 They picked the wrong grow to mess with, and it feels great to see clean leaves again. Can’t wait to see how she stacks over the next few weeks. This one’s got potential written all over it. Stay tuned! 💪🌸

this is the end guys, I last watered with much colder water,I could have harvested one in as little as a week, but I waited for the others to come to an end.very stinky tribe.don't grow it without a carbon filter, unfortunately it didn't completely catch the odors for me either.and there is a new carbon filter in both tents.so pay close attention.!they didn't require a lot of nutrients at all, I followed what I could learn about feeding here, water water feed water water ..the plants produced flowers of much the same size, one of which is a little different.I’m going to harvest it all tomorrow, we’ll wait for it to dry out, and then I’ll report on its weight and impact. the plants vegetated for 4 weeks anyway and flowered for 8 weeks. thank you for everything everyone did throughout my work and lectures. <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">💤</font></font>

day 14 added 1/2tbsp magnesium sulfate in 5gal water along with regular flower water amendments. 1gal of water per day average, bridal and thunder can take more water. Ph 6.8 today day 15 I will defoliate in a few days :) day 15 video, you see some stem action day 16 video day 17 I added (4x20w daisy-chained)80w of poop purple ancient leds Keep adding soluble PK, organic booster etc. I see the stacks relax on defoliation for a few days, maybe tomorrow morning (skip day21) I feel like I will be able to chop week 6-7 as my last grow, push hard fast-continue everything is great, soon bridal and thunder will require 1gal water per day. I would like to see even more mass. I'm extremely happy, starting to see frost day18. BIG UPDATE many short vids of final defoliation(ahead of "day 21"). Wild amendments appeared! Any recommendations for a lawnmower? Bridalparty stretched over an inch overnight, led touch diode burn on 1 spot. Raised lights slightly, Added new amendments into water. Bridal wants to drink more than 1gal per day, So I will be using almost 5gal-ish water per day not denying the plant needs-watering. I am very happy! defoliation took about 4h today.

She smells ready to eat yummy.. Smell is fruity an very sticky

Amelie has settled in well in the new tent and has gained 4cm in height this week. As she had been standing on the piano by the window under a 7W lamp for a really long time, waiting for a tent to finally become available, she had produced a lot of leaf material. This now had to come down. On 08.03.25 I therefore lollipopped and did some defoliation on the leaf canopy. Now it is nice and airy again and can concentrate fully on flowering. Incidentally, the pistils were already visible on 03.03., 8 days after the start of flowering. I had sent the mother into flowering in the previous run and fed her with Biobizz Grow/Bloom/Calmag and Plagron Green Sensation. As I still have a sample of Biobizz Topmax here, I thought I'd give it a try and see what effect it has on the taste. It's supposed to be sweeter, I've heard.

🌱 Ghost Train Haze — Week 2 (12/12 from Seed) Folder #7 | Plastic Pots | Hand-Watered Week two is now complete, and these girls are clearly picking up speed. After a very slow and controlled first week, and a still-measured but improving second week, we can now see momentum building. By the end of this week, plants are pushing into their second to third nodes, with larger leaves, strong symmetry, and a beautiful lush green color. Growth is very uniform across all plants, which is always reassuring at this stage. ⸻ 🌿 Containers & Medium — Plastic Pots vs Grow Bags Unlike some of the other folders in this room, these Ghost Train Haze plants are growing in 15L plastic pots from AutoPot, not grow bags. Important notes: • Pots are not connected to the AutoPot system yet • Plants are currently hand-fed, same as the rest of the room • Medium is soil, allowing roots to establish naturally first This slower start is expected and welcomed. When plants take their time above ground, it usually means roots are working hard below the surface, building a strong base before top growth accelerates. ⸻ 🌍 Sustainability Note (Important) This run also brings up an important long-term consideration. • Plastic pots can be reused many times • Grow bags, once finished, often end up as waste • Soil from pots can be reused or composted more easily For future runs, this is something I’m actively evaluating — moving away from disposable materials where possible, reducing plastic waste, and improving sustainability without compromising plant health. This grow is part of that learning process. ⸻ 💡 Environment & Conditions Conditions are stable and intentional. • Temperature: kept warm and consistent to support root activity • Humidity: slightly elevated to help early-stage development • Light intensity (PPFD): appropriate for this stage, encouraging steady growth without stress No signs of stress, no leaf deformation, and no nutrient-related issues so far. ⸻ Genetics — Ghost Train Haze Ghost Train Haze is known for: • Strong Haze influence • Fast growth once established • High vigor later in the cycle • Energetic, expressive structure This cultivar typically starts slow, then ramps up quickly once roots are established — exactly what we are beginning to see now. This is a strain that rewards patience early on. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week Expect: • Faster vertical growth • Larger fan leaves • Stronger stems • More pronounced node spacing typical of Haze genetics Do NOT expect yet: • Heavy stretch • Strong aromas • Flower expression That comes later. ⸻ 🌱 Final Thoughts This Ghost Train Haze run is doing exactly what it should be doing. Slow start, clean structure, healthy color, and now — acceleration. Very excited to see how these plants express themselves once they fully hit their stride.

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.

Day 1 soaked seeds for 18hrs. Day 2 seeds in dirt two seeds already popped in water and they where the auto's. Day 3 just keeping them moist and warm. Day 4 Northern lights came up and Great white shark came up. Watch these seeds sometimes the shell doesn't come off and you got to help it Northern lights shell was stuck and I took a tooth pick and helped it get it off. Day 5 Acapulco gold came up still waiting on Yumboldt auto and it had a tail on it when put in dirt.. Day 6 planted another Yumboldt auto seed directly in soil the other one was bad. So this one will be 6days behind others.

I had a lot of fun with this strain and it was grown against 400 growers so let me say PHENO hunting is a true thing. Overall the Bud was a nice dense structure and the smoke on it was smooth and the high nice and even.

So she only grew 3cm in vertical height this week. But look at all the side branches she's pushed out!!! The girl's doing well 😍

This week has been great.I'm glad that I was able to pull the plant when I needed to. The weather out here isn't always the best coming towards the end of October. How ever i handle it the best we can. What ive learned to do is wet trim before hang dry. Heres some phots of these glossing nugs. Iknkw ill lose a bitin water weight but im happy none the less. Fire 🔥 This has been a great grow, I learned a lot from Growing out here in new mexico. It was amazing to be able to train these plants 4 into one using training techniques. LST, HST, Defolation & topping all play a roll. It is fun to learn and sharpen my skills. I hope everyone enjoys my diary. Thank you so much Divine seeds. I appreciate the free seeds and the friendly community competition 👌 There's a lot of good growers outthere and I wanna learn from all. Much love ❤️ I'll be back with a smoke review soon

Welcome to week 6 of flower! Things are starting to shape up quite nicely and some of the plants are starting to get colourful! Its hard to capture on the current camera I'm using but my new one that's on its way should be much much better! Overall really excited to see what this week will bring! I will be checking some of the ladies trichomes to see how far along we are either this week or next week to give me an approximate harvest window! Huge shout outs to @MarsHydroLED for all their outstanding work on lighting and grow spaces that make it fun and easy to grow! Huge shout outs go to @Seedsman , @PyramidSeeds and @GreenHouseSeedCo for all their outstanding work developing genetics that give us that fine medicine! HUGE HUGE shout outs to all my followers and to the people who stop into the diary alike! Keep inspiring to grow! -The Projexx Day#36F Pictures N/A. Ladies are starting to fade but they're still putting on mass daily! Day#37F Pictures N/A. The terpenes an nose coming off the plants its INSANE we got lots of nice and unique smells going hard here! Day#38F Removed some of the leaves blocking nodes, cleaned up the bottoms abit more. Day#39F The ladies continue to put on mass and some of the leaves are really starting to turn purple! Day#40F The ladies continue to cruise along. Fuel D.og#2 is starting to come back to a nice green Day#41F Kings Juice#1 is really starting to show her fade now! Ladies continue to put mass on. Day#42F Water increased to 5L each at 550PPM. Stalks are getting massive! Recap: Things went really well this week, the ladies continue to put on mass on their rock solid flowers! With some of the plants starting to show signs of an open window for harvest Im going to break out the microscope next week to see exactly how far along we are! Over all really really pump about the plants , looking like its going to be a great harvest!

loved growing this girl didn't need to tend to her much she does like to drink but other than that grew with no issues she has a good stretch and branches out well has an excellent bud to leaf ratio with more buds than leaves I was excited about this as I'd heard great stuff and she definitely lives up to the reputation thanks to all who help comment and make the site what it is thanks for reading happy growing guys

the buds are getting thicker and the odour more intense. it's my first almost buds and i'm really impressed by her performace. she's currently still getting biobizz top-max and she seems to like that and lots of sun. :)

I fed them a lot, they tolerate it very well!

Ripped out the males, switching to plain water after this week!

Overall, everything seems to be going very well at the moment. The plants are growing faster than ever and the space on the sides is getting cramped. We still have plenty of space for them to stretch, but the upcoming week will probably be the last one in veg before we'll switch to 12/12. The roots of the plants already reached the bottom of their fabric pots. Topping: We decided to top the three largest plants (2x PCK, 1x Gelato). This was only done because we wanted the smaller gelato (top left) to catch up a little. I'm curious how that will work out. If all the plants had been the same size, we probably wouldn't have done it, because the space at the sides is already tight. Lamp distance: As the plants grew, we forgot to adjust the lamp distance until the distance was slightly below 30 cm. The upper leafs are currently looking a little stressed as a result, but it is not too bad. Right now the distance to the lamp is 50cm. Fungus Gnats: We added some sf-nematodes to the soil to get rid of fungus gnats. It is unclear where the gnats came from and it could be completely unrelated to the grow. However, we gave the nematodes to all plants so it does not become a bigger problem.
