21.09.Update – Day 54 • We’re now deep into flowering, and unfortunately the thrips problem has not improved. • On the contrary, the population has completely taken over and has had a strong negative influence on this run. ⸻ Pest Situation • Despite thorough cleaning before the run and multiple measures during the grow (Neem, Nematodes, Predatory Mites), the thrips kept spreading and finally took control. • The infestation has weakened the plants noticeably, reducing their potential and overall performance. • For the next cycle, I will need to take even stricter preventive steps to avoid a repeat of this issue. ⸻ Plant & Bud Development • Even though the plants were heavily affected, the buds themselves are still relatively solid: • They are compact, firm, and nicely structured. • The terpene profile is very appealing, with a rich and delicious aroma. • Yield will certainly be lower than expected, but there is still a chance for a satisfying end product. ⸻ Notes & Outlook • This run shows how devastating thrips pressure can be, even under careful preparation. • Nevertheless, the buds are giving hope for a decent harvest in terms of quality and flavor. • The plan now is to finish strong, harvest what can be saved, and then prepare carefully for a fresh, hopefully pest-free start. ⸻ 🌱 Day 54 – Thrips have dominated the run, but compact buds and great terps keep the outlook positive for harvest quality.

Well we’re finally here after 20 long weeks Humboldt seeds Chemdawg is down, looking very colourful ranging from light greens to a near red violet colour. The buds are nice and dense so after been hung they will go into glass jars for 36hrs then into brown bags until dry, for me the brown bag helps dry the buds perfect whilst locking in the terpenes which we all want thanks for watching and as arnie said “I’ll be back”00

Our journey with the Sticky Orange XXL Automatic strain from Sensi Seeds has come to an end, and it’s time to share the results! 🌱 This was an easy-to-grow strain with no major issues. However, out of three seeds, one didn’t sprout, and another one, although it sprouted, grew abnormally: in just two days, it stretched 10 cm with a thin stem that broke. But our main girl grew from the start with a thick stem and sturdy branches. After 76 days, we harvested 110 grams. 💪 This strain pleasantly surprised us with its strength and unique flavors. The aroma is unforgettable, and the effect is absolutely explosive – it literally pins you to the couch. It feels like you’ve been shot out of a cannon and are flying into space! 🌌 The effect is strong and long-lasting. After just one hit through a water bong, you start considering a second one, but after a minute, you’re thankful you didn’t take it! 😅 Of course, Xpert Nutrients played a big role in our success – thanks to them, we grew such powerful and tasty buds. Thank you for the great results! 🌟 #StickyOrangeXXL #SensiSeeds #XpertNutrients #GrowDiaries

Removed the garden staples from the 2 cultivar that have reached preflower and replaced the staples with bamboo steaks to maximize light penetration to all bud sites and did a light defoliation ✌️

Grow Report by Zuppler - Week 3 Veg Phase Ayy, what it do fam? Zuppler back on the check-in with that week 3 veg report, live from the capital. Yo, these girls ain’t playin’ no more – they really startin’ to stack up, lookin' thick in the canopy like they preppin' for somethin’ big. We still runnin’ that Advanced Nutrients like clockwork, straight through that RO water, keepin’ it pure as a Miami night breeze. The nodes are gettin’ tight, leaves spreadin’ out nice and wide, takin’ all that light. I hit ‘em with a little scrog, just a lil’ bend here and there, makin’ sure that light hit every corner of the canopy. You already know I’m tryin’ to maximize that potential. Stems got that thick structure, and no signs of nute burn or nothin’. We’re talkin’ flawless execution, fam. At this point, it’s just watchin’ ‘em fill out, keepin’ the environment dialed in and lettin’ ‘em do their thing. We’re settin’ the stage for a strong finish when we flip ‘em to flower. Zuppler out, stay blessed.

Actualización 05/10/2024 ¡Hola, growers! Perdón por no poder compartir las semanas completas, pero poco a poco volvemos a la normalidad. Las fotos que ven corresponden al día 01/10/24 y, como pueden ver, están llenas de terpenos y tricomas por todas partes. Tanto la Fruit Gum como la Biscotti x Candy Rain son dos de las cepas más resinosas que he cultivado y, además, desprenden un olor increíblemente fuerte. La Fruit Gum tiene esos toques dulces y nostálgicos, como a chicle de mascar, que me transportan directamente a mi infancia. En cuanto a la Biscotti x Candy Rain, su aroma es como el de una clásica galleta americana casera, ¡muy intenso! Ambas cepas me están impresionando mucho por su resinosidad y aromas únicos. Cabe destacar que las genéticas de Uktha Genetics me han sorprendido gratamente; los resultados están siendo fantásticos. Eso sí, estas cepas comen como camiones, pero mientras se mantenga un control exhaustivo de las fertilizaciones y del medio de cultivo, no hay problema de sobrefertilización. Pronto cortaremos una de las plantas que está bastante adelantada. Espero que disfruten tanto como yo este proceso y, como siempre, ¡buenos humos para todos! 🌱💨

Huge buds everywhere. I for sure unlocked most of these seeds. I wish the trichome production had been better 😏

Chopping her down shortly after this photo shoot! Super happy with the results! Very frosty nugs! Dense and sticky! Couldn’t ask for more in a 7.5 oz coke can—- doesn’t get any smaller than that! ✌️💚🌿💨

She's doing well! Not long left. Maybe a week or so. Trichomes are still all clear, pistils are 80% brown.

Ghost Train Haze — Week 1 Report Folder #7 | “Catching the Ghost Train” Station One: Emergence The Ghost Train has arrived at its first station, and all passengers are present. For this run, we are currently keeping three seeds, all showing very similar early expressions. Uniformity is strong at this stage, with no clear standout yet — a promising sign of genetic consistency. ⸻ Medium & Container Setup Unlike the rest of the room, or half of it, Ghost Train Haze is running a slightly different container strategy: • Inner pots: Plastic pots • Outer pots (optional / future): • 15-liter outer pots • Filled with Plagron soil At this moment, the plants are not yet connected to the outer pots. The system is ready, but the decision is still open. There are more outer pots available than reservoir connections, which opens up a few possible paths forward: • Permanent selection of which plants get connected • Rotational system (one week one plant, next week another) • Or keeping them independent for now and deciding later This flexibility is intentional — no rush, no forced decisions at Station One. ⸻ Growth & Early Behavior All three seedlings are: • Very similar in structure • Slightly stretchy, but still healthy and elegant • Upright, responsive, and visually balanced The stretch is within reason and fits the Ghost Train character — reaching forward, eager to move. No weakness, no instability, just early momentum. Leaf color is clean, stems are holding well, and overall posture shows good adaptation to the environment. ⸻ Environmental Conditions Conditions remain identical to the rest of the room: • Same light cycle • Same environment • Same airflow • Same feeding philosophy No exceptions, no special treatment — the only variable here is container strategy, by design. ⸻ What to Expect Next (Next Stations) • Slight reduction in stretch as root mass increases • Clearer individual expression between the three plants • Decision window opening regarding outer pot connections • Increased leaf development and node definition What Not to Expect (Yet) • No heavy feeding • No aggressive training • No final container decisions just yet ⸻ Final Notes — Station One This first station is all about arrival, assessment, and options. The Ghost Train Haze seedlings are healthy, aligned, and ready for the journey ahead. The track is laid, the switches are visible, and the destination will reveal itself in time.

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 A6000 (for now A6700 will be doing all future updates) 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.
