Week 7 of flowering 10/30/24 Changed nutrients to fit week 7 Buds are getting even bigger and thicker. Last week PH drop happened again a couple of days after the major flush. PH in rootzone is getting lower every day. Runoff still at 10-20%, so no salt buldup, EC same as intake or litttle higher. Flushed again with FloraKleen and watered with TriPart Micro, Grow, Bloom with CalMag. Bought Potassium Bicarbonate and Calcium Carbonate as suggested by "Aqua Man", to buffer coco in the future. (https://www.thcfarmer.com/threads/ph-dropping-from-5-8-to-3-9-overnight-what-is-causing-this.87011/post-2329509) changed nutes on 11/2/24, to FinalPart at 1.3 EC. Checking runoff PH and EC daily.

Ghost Train Haze Week 6 from seed | 12/12 from seed Marked as: Week 1 Flower (pre-flower transition) Before jumping into current conditions, a quick recap for anyone new joining the diary. This Ghost Train has been through a bit of a transition phase over the past weeks. Earlier environmental fluctuations, combined with changes in nutrition and irrigation style (Autopots), slowed her down compared to the rest of the room. Nothing dramatic, but enough to leave visible signals on the older leaves. The good news: conditions are now much more stable, and the plant is clearly responding. ⸻ Current Environment (now stabilized) • Temperature: ~27.5 °C • Humidity: ~65% • CO₂: ~900 ppm • PPFD: • Smaller plants: ~600–700 • Taller plants: up to ~800–850 Light intensity is intentionally staggered. Plants are allowed to grow into the photons naturally, rather than being forced under a flat PPFD across the canopy. This helps accommodate different genetics and growth speeds in the same room. Despite cold weather outside, internal temperatures are now stable, which was one of the main goals this week. ⸻ Root Zone & Irrigation • Root / reservoir temperature: ~17 °C Slightly cold, acknowledged. This contributed to slower uptake earlier, especially in Autopots. Not ideal, but manageable, and already improving. • Watering parameters: • pH: 6.5 • EC: 2.4 ⸻ Nutrition — what changed and why This week marks a clear nutritional transition: • Switched from Plagron Terra Grow → Terra Bloom • Following the Plagron feeding schedule • This was the only intentional change Additionally: • CalMag Pro has now been added (started last week) About the leaf symptoms The older leaves show signs of undernutrition and stress. This is not a single-cause issue, but a combination of factors: • Cold root zone limiting uptake • Autopot system still running a lighter recipe • A sudden stop of organic inputs • A rapid switch to a fully mineral approach In short: the plant was used to one rhythm, and that rhythm changed fast. She didn’t like it — and she showed it. Important note for newer growers: 👉 These symptoms are on older leaves. They will not “repair,” but new growth is the real indicator, and that’s already improving. By increasing Terra Bloom, adding CalMag, and stabilizing the environment, the plant now has what she needs to push into flowering properly. ⸻ Flowering expectations This Ghost Train Haze is currently the most delayed plant in the room, and that’s okay. • Haze-dominant genetics often: • Take longer to transition • Stretch later • Flower later than hybrids She will likely be: • The last to fully enter flower • The last to finish That’s normal — and usually rewarded with excellent medicine in the end. What to expect next: • Gradual improvement in new growth color • Clear pre-flower expression • Stretch beginning once roots and uptake fully sync What not to expect: • Instant cosmetic recovery on old leaves • Overnight flowering just because the schedule says so ⸻ Final thoughts Conditions are now stable, inputs are clear, and the plant is responding. From here, it’s about consistency, not correction. Thank you to: • The newcomers • The OGs • The supporters and the critics • The sponsors • The community • The platform itself It’s truly an honor and a privilege to share these humble diaries with everyone who chooses to follow along.

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.

Last week of Veg I might actually flip to flowering mid week.

Update 14/09/20 - All systems ahead at this stage. Plants are drinking approximately 2.5 litres per day and reservoir is constantly filled and Ph checked daily. Ph average 6.1 Humidity 50% Day Temp 28c Night 20c Seems to be Approximately 3 weeks left on Colorado Cookie & one of the mixed bag as well or may be slightly ahead, by possibly a few days. Time schedule looks as though 1 of the mixed bags 1st, then Colorado Cookie, 3rd Second mixed bag (lightly topped) then may a week or 2 will be the Blueberry. The next weeks 4 weeks are exciting!!! I'm excited to see how much more they fill out from this point! They may exceed my expectations!! 14/09/20 - I increased the nutrients slightly as the Blueberry was a little light green as opposed to all other plants that have that have lush green into flowering as well as a little extra flower boost to try to fatten up the buds. 5 mls extra of Flower Booster 25 mls per 10 ltrs. 16/09/20 - Realised that Mixed bag x 2 & Colorado Cookie only have approximately 3 - 4 weeks, so I decided to begin to reduce the nutrients instead on the 3 girls. Blueberry is at least 2 weeks behind so I have continued to feed her 1/4 nutrients and 20mls bloom per 10 ltrs. Did another defoliation on the Blueberry and this will be the last time for her until later in flower. very light defoliation of bud sites to Mixed bag x 2 & Colorado Cookie. * The Colorado Cookie has a magnificient fragrance, the Mixed bag as I'm not sure what they are they do have a Citrus fragrance. Trichomes have begun and are still clear An eye must be kept on Trichomes from here * 17/09/20 - Systems are good and everything moving along nicely.

Finally back to it!

04/01 (M) As stated in previous update from last week (SEE week 25 update 04/01 (M) ) - Since has been fed accordingly and rebounding accordingly. 04/01 (C) Same as above for the babies (SEE week 25 update 04/01 (M) ) - They are rebounding accordingly as well - Never get to comfortable and execution are key - 04/08 - (M) - The Mom has bounced back nicely - The nutrient feed had to be increased to supplement for when the feeder malfunctioned - Her dead leaves will be pruned this week to prep for budding. 04/08 - (C) - The babies bounced back nicely as well from the EC/PPM/PH burn - Most of their has come back and numbers are optimal thus far.

This week was good, stopped feeding nutes, ro water only, the buds are so solid, nice and thick. Didn’t think this was going to be so big, the 16”x16” fits the growbed perfect, it the plant is a little cramped, a 24”x24” would be perfect, as the branches would be able to droop more and allow more light to some lower growth. However after this I’m using these tents to do smaller scrog plants, which are photos. And I’ll do the auto-flowers in a more open environment.

Ya buddie got a cut of this to throw in with FruitWalker 50/50 I’ll be reversexig for pollen! Hell yes😍😍😍

BIG BIG apologies to Heather from fast buds & to Growdiaries & anyone who follows. The past few months have been a massive struggle, not just with temperatures & growing weed but on a personal level. My wife has been very poorly & with covid and everything going on, it's put a massive strain on us all!! I've tries to maintain an active presence on Instagram but that's about all I've physically had time for. I've put this update together today, so far into the grow now it almost seems pointless. I lost my original Mimosa due to high temps & high RH. Moving into the attic at that time of year was a mistake. It has cost me a small fortune to keep things alive. I've had to purchase an air con unit, more fans & just more of everything to be honest. My purple punch is almost ready to harvest, any time within the next couple of days, followed shortly by Bruce Banner & Kosher cake. I wont be winning any awards for this Diary & I feel bad as I was supposed to be show casing what 420 Fast buds has to offer & I've failed...miserably. I hope you can make sense of all the pictures I've included....just a mass photo frenzy over the past few weeks. Thanks to everyone & all your comments. Wishing you all the best. One Love ❤️

Week 2, Day 10: all 5 seedlings has emerged from the coco that I've prepared.Most of them are between 6-9cm tall and 4 true leaves has appeared. Been feeding my self made nutrients equivalent to the GH main 3 Floral Series. The coco that I have bought is from a 5.5kg block which i buffered with Calmag solution of 150% strength and left overnight for 8+ hours. The girls seems healthy and happy at the moment however I have read some reviews that these 2 strains BCN Critical XXL & Big Bud XXL are not hard to care for and mostly forgiving on the nutes. I always ensure that my PH levels are within par of 5.5-6.5 & the recommended PPM according to the feeding schedule of GH label instruction which is between 300-400 ppm. The other 3 plants are Landrace Sativas which I grew earlier and 2 has been given LST (Low Stress Training) back 5 days ago and I noticed that the smaller leaves are thriving into bigger fan leaves and thicker branches! I overdid the 1st plant which seem to be slightly overbent including the main stem which quickly recovered and healed overtime. these plants are really amazing to watch them grow. I will be transplanting the 5 autoflowers into a 5 gallon pot in another day or 2,until then happy growing! 😸

Gorilla Glue #1 - Harvest Comment - I Am Very Satisfied With What I Got, I got 3 ounce 7 grams - I Uses Advance Nutrients PH perfect In veg then I switch to the iguana juice organic juice for the flowering stage. I notice a much more slower growth when I switch to organic nutrients.00

Great harvest as usual with this recipe
