⭐ Catching the Ghost Train Haze @ zamnesia station — A Journey Into the 12/12 Frontier Welcome to the beginning of our Ghost Train Haze story — a Zamnesia genetic boarding the 12/12 seed run with mystery, momentum, and a touch of spectral charm. ⸻ 🌼 Germination Summary Seed Source — Zamnesia Seeds Seed Count for This Report 3 seedlings selected for documentation (More were germinated; only the standout ones were chosen for this diary.) ⸻ Starting Method (Observational Log) All seeds began in the CannaKan germination system for visual tracking and documentation. Around the 36-hour mark, early root activity became visible — consistent with the rest of the feminized seeds in the project. Seedlings were then placed into: • Mixed soils depending on availability (Pro-Mix and/or Plagron Bio Mix across the tent) • Some under small humidity domes • All inside the shared environment of the 8×8 setup ⸻ Emergence Approximately 2–3 days after entering their starting medium, the Ghost Train Haze seedlings rose above the soil surface with strong posture and clean, energetic emergence. Their timing was in line with the other feminized genetics, joining the rhythm of the project with confidence. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Context (Shared Tent Conditions) These conditions are consistent observational notes across the entire project: • Relative Humidity: approx. 60–65% • Day Temperature: ~26–28°C • Night Temperature: ~20–21°C • Humidifier: running continuously • Occasional misting: helping stabilize ambient moisture • Heater: supporting nighttime warmth • Lighting: • Future of Grow — Air Grow Pro III HyperRED • Lumiflora UE150 under-canopy LEDs (for later phases) • Controllers: TrollMaster (previous collaboration) • Medium: varied across plants (for Ghost Train Haze, noted accordingly) • Tent Prep: fully sanitized and cleaned prior to the start All Ghost Train Haze seedlings share identical environmental conditions within this educational observational experiment. ⸻ 🌈 Educational Notes for This Genetic Ghost Train Haze is known for its bold structure, energetic presence, and dramatic expression — a perfect candidate for a cinematic diary line. In this documentation, we’ll be observing: • The individual differences among the three selected seedlings • How Ghost Train Haze expresses itself under a unified 12/12 seed experiment • Any notable traits in visual structure, posture, color, or “ghostly personality” No predictions — only curiosity and observation, as always. ⸻ 🙏 Acknowledgments A heartfelt thank-you to: • Future of Grow — cutting-edge lighting powering this journey • Plagron — supportive substrates, mixes, and soil products • Zamnesia Seeds — genetics behind the entire run • Lumiflora — under-canopy LED innovation • TrollMaster — environmental gear from prior collaboration • GrowDiaries — home of the full documented series And also: • OG supporters • Quiet watchers • New followers • Curious wanderers • Friendly critics • Everyone who shows up with kindness, interest, or curiosity This community is the railway that keeps the Ghost Train moving. ⸻ 🧡 Closing Note for the Report This entry marks the first chapter of Catching the Ghost Train Haze — a journey through the 12/12 Frontier with three seedlings now officially on board. More updates will follow with photos, logs, and educational notes as this spectral traveler reveals its personality inside the shared environment. The train has left the station — and this is just the beginning.

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 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.

Von der ursprünglichen Balkonpflanze #2...die ausgewildert wurde (guerilla) hab ich noch keine aktuellen Bilder...aber kommen noch...in der Woche 9 gibts welche...nicht groß...aber sensationele Farbe und Glanz

5/8 Watered both with plain PH'd water yesterday. Both of the plants are sucking up leaves. Trichomes are only really looking amber on the brown leaves, but otherwise milky. 5/10 Decided that these brown-leaved buds on Trainwreck were ready, so I tried a little bro-science and watered an hour before harvesting. Noticed there were some really nice green young buds intertwined, so I did my best to trim around to leave them for another week or so. No weight measurements yet, will wait till after trimming and before curing.

Added a touch more KoolBloom into the mix. All is looking great, I think B2 is nearing its time to flush although B1 is a week or two behind. Buds are continuing to swell up nicely and have an insane amount of frost all the way up some fan leaves. Hopefully these will be down by late December or early January.

Stretch Mystery & Waiting Game 🌱🕵️‍♂️ This week’s been all about patience and potential. We’re technically in Bloom Week 2, but our little mystery queen is still holding her cards close—no visible pistils yet, even though her structure and energy say she’s gearing up for something big. 🌿✨ That said, the stretch is definitely on. She’s reaching higher each day, and those side branches are starting to fan out beautifully. The symmetry is looking solid, and she seems right on track—even if she's taking her sweet time to show her true identity. 👀 Same feeding routine, steady rhythm: 🔸 BioBizz Grow, Bloom, TopMax + CalMag + Alg-a-Mic 🔸 Homemade compost tea, applied two days post-feed 🔸 Effective Microorganisms added 48h later 🔸 Silica spray every 3 days for added resilience 🔸 pH holding steady at 6.55, EC at a gentle 1400 µS/cm She’s been soaking up plenty of sun and dancing in the breeze—no signs of pests or stress. Just one healthy, mystery-laced autoflower doing her thing at her own pace. 🌀 Let’s see what the next few days bring. Hopefully, we’ll spot some pistils soon—until then, I’m enjoying the ride. 🌸💫

Fade is coming through nicely. Regretting trimming up some leaves early. Thought id be chopping it down a few days back. Ec has rocketed up to 1.0 after being a bit more thorough with my watering technique. Guessing the plant had a fair bit of salt build up throughout the grow that had really set in. Gonna have to just keep watering like this until that ec really drops off and the leaves all yellow out. Starting to get some solid ambers, lots of cloudy trichomes. Shes definitely almost ready

this session is (already!) coming to an end 👌 as the buds were so advanced at the end of last week, I lowered the coconut feel and gave a little boost to the Super Boom. At the end of the week, after checking the trichos, the rinsing seemed to be necessary. I'm going to cut in 7-10 days 👍 see all my vids :) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtAGX0oCBY92aj3VJCG5q-Q/

Easiest week so far, no problems just growing. I did spray some neem oil on my soil a few days a go to keep pests out of the fox farm soil. Week 4 will bring in topping after the next node grows in, should be 2 or 3 days. Also towards the end of the week after she recovers from topping I will begin LST. Will provide pics throughout the week Posted first vid in real light not my 600 watt LED. Mainly for health purposes. This will be so interesting to see how blueberry will develop after an accidental FIMing lol. Personal Note: Wait to top when there is a full mainstem and not barely new growth. Meaning wait til the new growth has 2 fan leafs spread out, and not when they are just leafs barley sprouted from the main stem. Rookie mistake number 1 so far at the end of week 3. Or maybe time will tell if blueberry will be gracious enough to be a beautiful big buded tree. I read where FIMing can develop up to 4 extra colas and still grow beautifully. Fingers crossed.

The Wonder Pie were showing signs of deficiencies so I added 2ml/L of liquid worm castings to see if it helps, also top-dressed diatomaceous earth to help get rid of the fungus gnats. Will top dress the powdered nutrients again in 1-2 weeks. Also foliar sprayed them with Sugar Candy Syrup to help with the deficiencies. I'll go with bigger plants next time because I think I won't get much from these smaller plants. Other than that, just waiting for them to do their thing and hopefully harvest in 5 weeks or so.
