Somango auto

*Update* - Took a L on the first seed I dropped last week. dropped 2 more yesterday, Pics have been updated and germ dates as well. Both seeds germinated nicely!!! * Quick 4 day seedling update, See uploaded pics above* - 08/04* *Day 7 Update, See below for specs* Introduced Raw (NPK) Veg Part 2 Coco topped with worm casting and perlite Light run - 18/6 Temps High 70 - Low 80's - Humidity - 78-91% Moderate on the Myco Frequent but light water feeds - Qtr Gallon each - Moderate coco top soil saturated.

11/10/2021 Catching up on some back burner projects Blue Matter F2 being upgraded to #1) dropped a few seeds into some RO water over night. Following night into paper towel in zip lock bag. Next day seeds cracked, put in jiffy pellets to finish germination under humidity dome. Will post pics when popping through soil. Searching for a special couple male and female's for open Pollination (Keeping clone of each just incase I get a keeper). Male or female😉 Original KOS Seed released through the gamblers table on KOS site Description by The REV BLUE MATTER Description Blue Matter (Dark Matter male x Blue Rhino 1947 f1) Welcome to the Gamblers’ Table section of KOS. Here and there we sell untested varieties for a real cool deal, there’s really not a ton of risk here, but every once in awhile shit can go south. Now here is a really trippy blend here amigos, and let me tell you why. When I brought up my BR1947 plants from seed, I got one of the small females, that is just resin soaked and much more potent than any other BR1947 phenotype, in my experience. This pheno of the BR1947 also has the strongest medical properties regarding her abilities to calm down nerve damage type spasms. But she doesn’t get very big, short and stocky with average yields and serious Blueberry flavors and smells. The father is the Dark Matter, which is my Rusty Haze male x my Cherry Thunderfuck. This plant (Dark Matter) gets large and often imparts a Grape Crush type influence into fruity/berry flavored varieties it breeds with. So while this cross is essentially the same parental varieties as the KOS Dark Rhino, this one was made with a very special female and sure to deliver a unique connoisseur treat. These will likely go 9 or 10 weeks, yields should be alright, smells and flavors should be off the hook, medical properties should be at full power, and she will fairly likely stay on the shorter more stacked side regarding morphology. So check out this special girl if you think she may be what the doctor ordered! 11/11/2021 #1 is above ground! Going to measure ppfd tomorrow to figure out where to put them so I don't burn leaves or stress without enough light. 11/12/2021 Three more popped up today at four and counting. 11/13/2021 3 more sprouts today total of, 7 of 11 seeds so far good. Germ rate considering how I stored them. In a warm dresser drawer since 2017? 11/14/2021 Seven of 11 so far. Up potted our #1 sprout to her home for the next 30 or so. Also up pot others as needed over the next week. Veg should be start soon. 11/16/2021 6 days and 7 out of 11 sprouting. So I'll pot up the 7 sisters ( fingers crossed) and ad others if they sprout. 11/18/2021 8 out of 11 germinated potted up 5 got 3 more to transplant. Should be ready to start veg soon got single fingered leaves but waiting on first set of 3 leaves to begin veg. 72.2 germ rate on improperly stored seed. Decent.

Easy transplanted🤗

Semana 7 julho - 13 julho 9 julho - feed day - bloombastic 0.5ml/l - causou uma ligeira queima de nutrientes aparentemente. 12 julho - feed day (2L)

Black Cherry Gushers - Barney's Farm Day 106 - watered her with 5L of RO tap water with a reduced measure of Bio Bloom and Top Max nutrients, and then pH'd to 6.3. She's about eight days from harvest having spent the past 9-10 weeks on a 12/12 schedule; about 70% of her pistils have turned amber and her trichomes are mostly milky🤘🏻 Other than removing a couple of fan leaves from her top canopy, not much work... She has been an easy enough grow🙏🏻

🤦🏿‍♂️😶

11/20/23 - Day 14 - Today the box flipped to Veg state. I made the decision in the software yesterday, its take effect the next day at the light on schedule. The system will do a couple of things now that it's in Vegetative mode. Lights will remain at 18Hrs On/6hours Off, however the intensity will slowly creep from 30% intensity to 100% within a couple of days. Air Temp will remain the same at 79deg. F Humidity will go down to 50% Water temp and PH will remain the same, 64.5deg. F and 6.0Ph Because I have it all hooked up for Auto water. It started the first video about 1 min after lights on. It drained the water, refilled it. After it refilled it, it turned on the air stone, started the water temp cool down, and it slowly over the next 30 minutes delivered nutes, and finished it off with balancing the PH. All of this was done on its own. I DID NOTHING. Other than verify because why not. I sat back and watched the system work. This time around with everything hook up for auto I really am not doing much. The hardest part of this grow so far is not opening the door while the light is off. the rest of the week I don't expect to do much. I will update daily with pictures and things that I am noticing. This is an Auto strain. I am a little worried about growing an Auto in this box. usually, I can control the growth utilizing the lights because I'm space limited. This time the plants going to flip to flower on its own. I'll need to make sure I am training and cropping early on. 11/24/23 - Day 18 - Everything is starting to get aggressive in there. I say that because the new nodes are growing out of new nodes on the top. It's like its packed full of plant and it all wants to come out at the same time. The leaves have more serrated Leafs than I have seen on any of the other strains I have grown. Ill post a picture of the last time I grew this strain. I did it in Coco Coir. It will be cool to see the differences. 11/25/23 - Day 19 - The Leaves are all reaching up, and the plant is growing so fast! Its such a bushy plant.

Ghost Train Haze — Harvest / Trim / Cure Part 2 — Trimming, Resin & First Cure First of all, once again, sorry for dividing this harvest into three different parts. But honestly… there was just no way to fit this entire experience into one single update without rushing it. This run became something special for us. So instead of throwing everything into one giant report, we wanted to slow things down and give each phase the attention it deserves. Part 1 was about harvest day itself — especially the frozen plant and the preparation for the future ice water hash runs. Now in Part 2, we focus on the monster of the room. The big Ghost Train Haze girl. The giant. And damn… she was beautiful. ⸻ The Giant Finally Ready After drying slowly and patiently, she finally reached that moment every grower waits for: the stem click. Not bending anymore. Not soft anymore. That perfect dry snap telling us she was finally ready for trimming. And honestly, seeing this massive plant hanging there fully dried was already rewarding by itself. Huge flowers. Dense structure. Long spears everywhere. Frost absolutely covering the plant from top to bottom. At this point, we brought out the Trim Bin, got comfortable, and of course… Mr. Baggy joined the session too. Because trimming alone is trimming. But trimming with the homies becomes part of the memory. ⸻ Trimming This Beast Once we started separating the branches and working through the flowers properly, one thing became immediately obvious: This plant was ridiculously frosty. And I mean ridiculously. Possibly the frostiest plant in the entire room. Every touch released resin. Every nug felt sticky. Scissors getting glued together constantly. Gloves turning darker and shinier minute after minute. The flowers themselves came out incredibly dense and compact too. Heavy in the hand. Proper weight to them. Not airy at all despite the sativa influence from Ghost Train Haze. And visually? Beautiful. Silver-covered calyxes. Orange hairs fading perfectly into the resin layer. Chunky flowers with that classic “don’t squeeze too hard or you’ll ruin the trichomes” feeling. This girl truly felt like a reward after the full cycle. ⸻ The Trim Bin Surprise One thing we absolutely loved during this trimming session was watching how much resin naturally collected inside the Trim Bin. By the end of the session, the amount of loose trichome heads sitting underneath the screen was honestly crazy. No dry sift machine. No mechanical shaker. Just trimming. And still… A beautiful golden layer of resin waiting for us underneath. Of course, finger hash also started building up naturally while trimming. Sticky gloves. Sticky fingers. Sticky scissors. The classic signs of a happy trimming session. Then came one of our favorite moments of the day. ⸻ Playing The Drums — Moroccan Style At the end, we decided to have some fun with the trim itself. Using the dry material almost like traditional Moroccan drum-sifting techniques, we gently worked the trim leaves and remaining material to knock off even more trichomes. Simple. Relaxed. Traditional-inspired. And honestly? It worked beautifully. What we collected afterward turned into a gorgeous little hash bar that looked and smelled incredible. We didn’t even bother weighing it. Sometimes not everything needs numbers. Some things are simply for the experience. For the ritual. For the future session. For curiosity. For enjoyment. And this one definitely earned its place for later tasting sessions. ⸻ Final Dry Weight After everything was trimmed, cleaned, and separated, the final dry flower weight from this single plant came to: 294.9 grams dry Honestly? We’re extremely happy with that. Almost 300 grams from a single plant in this run is something we can absolutely appreciate. Especially considering this entire project was: * 12/12 from seed * Minimal training * Minimal intervention * Natural structure * Mostly observation and guidance Just letting the plant express herself while giving her the right environment. And she rewarded us massively. ⸻ Storage & Cure — Different Approaches Once trimming was done, we started organizing the curing process using different storage methods. This time we decided to split the flower between: * Glass jars * Metal Zamnesia containers * Grove Bags Each one has its own purpose and philosophy. Glass Jars The classic. Simple, reliable, proven for decades. Perfect for manual burping and personally controlling the curing environment yourself. They also allow us to visually inspect the flowers easily during cure. ⸻ Metal Containers The Zamnesia metal containers feel more protective physically and also help reduce light exposure completely. They feel solid. Clean. Almost laboratory-like. A very nice option for preserving flower while keeping things discreet and protected. ⸻ Grove Bags These are probably the most modern approach we tested in this run. The idea behind Grove Bags is that their “TerpLoc” technology supposedly regulates humidity internally while allowing gas exchange in a controlled way. The theory is that they naturally maintain flower within the ideal curing range around: 58–62% RH without constant burping. So now we’re extremely curious to compare all three methods later during the smoke review phase: * Does one preserve terpenes better? * Does one keep the flower softer? * Does aroma evolve differently? * Does cure quality actually change? We’ll definitely revisit this in Part 3. ⸻ The Frozen Plant — Flower Comparison After finishing the main giant plant, we also trimmed and cured the material that came from the frozen/hash-focused plant from Part 1. This was important for us because we wanted to compare: * Flower from the “normal dried” plant vs * Flower from the plant intended mainly for extraction And surprisingly? The terpene profiles feel extremely similar. Same family. Same identity. Same Ghost Train Haze soul. Maybe slight differences in intensity or texture, but overall the profile remained very recognizable between both plants. Which honestly gives us a very good feeling about the future hash quality too. The frozen plant itself ended up giving: 58.5 grams dry Plus whatever was already separated and reserved through the frozen material process itself. So overall, absolutely worth it. ⸻ Macro Photography & Focus Stacking During all this, we also continued working on our macro photography experiments. Some of the photos shared in this update were actually focus-stacked images made from: * 112 photos * 96 photos * 33 photos For people unfamiliar with focus stacking: Macro photography has extremely shallow depth of field. When you photograph trichomes closely, only tiny portions stay in focus at once. So instead, we take dozens — sometimes over a hundred — separate images with different focus points and merge them together afterward in software. The result is a final image where the entire flower or trichome field becomes sharp at the same time. It takes time. It takes patience. But honestly, we love the process. Because cannabis truly deserves to be appreciated up close. ⸻ Trimming Timelapses We also recorded trimming timelapses so people can better see the workflow behind everything. Not just the glamorous final nug shots. But the actual process: * separating branches * cleaning flowers * resin building up * trim collecting * the mess * the rhythm * the work itself Because behind every beautiful cured flower, there are hours of patience nobody usually sees. ⸻ What Comes Next — Part 3 The next and final report will focus on: * Full smoke review * Cure evolution * Drying process explained deeper * Flavor profile * Terpene expression * Effects * Overall experience with Ghost Train Haze * Personal reflections after living with this cultivar That final report will close the entire Ghost Train Haze journey properly. ⸻ Thank You And as always… Huge thanks to everybody who stopped by this journey. To the breeders behind these genetics. To the companies making nutrients, LEDs, gear, and tools possible. To the platforms that allow growers to share their passion openly. To the community members constantly supporting each other. To the OG followers. To the new followers. To the silent viewers. To the growers. To the curious people. To the skeptics. To the lovers. To the haters too. If this grow made somebody stop scrolling for even a few seconds and appreciate the plant differently… that already means something to us. From grower to growers. See you all in Part 3. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

Coming along nicely. I have to water it twice a day but that's to be expected with such a tiny pot. Should get a nice stick of bud out of it.

Very good smell so far, exact fragrance that the other 2 phenos plants Ak420, hoping the best for a good sativa happy energetic high with that sweetness in flavor and aroma, let's see how she perfoms! 👨‍🌾💚🧡
