This has been smooth sailing this week.. plants needing minimal attention, gave a foliar feed with a weak cal/mag/nitrogen mix. Am about to drop the tank and flush for a day and then redose with nutes. Trialing a bi-weekly flush this time.. see how it goes.

Super easy grow , i hst & topped this girl early & I think that really helped her out !!! She was grown in living soil so no NPK was given to this girl at all .. she smells just like lemonade, and finish on day 71 from seed !! Super happy with this girl ... she’s drying now , I can’t wait to smoke her!! She smokes super smooth, taste exactly how she smells!! Great job fast buds

Day 9 I had no choice but to defoliate, the canopy was getting way to dense and humidity was hard to control even with my 30 pin dehumidifier. Hopefully will not affect to much. Probably I will do another defoliation on day 21. TDS stays at 550PPM this week and CO2 at 1200PPM.

Gente,sono arrivato alla 6 settimana di fioritura,per fortuna sto riuscendo a debellare sto cazzo di ragnetto rosso...e tutti i fiorellini maschi che stavano spuntando...al momento sembra che non stiano più facendo sviluppare,ne nannars ne fiori completi di Maschio......il che è buonissimo 😋...spero riuscire a portare a termine bene la mia terapia, altrimenti mi ritroverò (ma di molto nellaCACCONA...MERDA!!!)..MA no! sono positivo e quasi sicuro che sarà buonissima 😋

Transition week! Not much to do but put them in the big tent Now that they can drink whatever they will rocket off!!!! Will put stakes in em and LST em more next week!

Week 12 over! Cant believe how fast this last 3 months has gone! My 6 ladies are powering on and just keep getting bigger and bigger. They have had 2 nute feeds this week and now 2 flush feeds. Planning on going with a 10 day flush. I will continue to upload pictures throughout the week as I'll be asking for a experienced opinion on when to chop. So far I'm seeing literally 1 or 2 amber trichs on the biggest of the 6 but no anywhere else. I'm thinking this is a good sign that my target of cropping next Sunday is still on track. That would be exactly 13 weeks. Buds are looking so so dense. Hard to get a photo that does them justice but the biggest colas are 75mm thick! If your here then please also check out my new diaries where I'm running 3 FastBuds strains. These will be going in my environment as soon as the stardawgs are jarred up.

I should’ve scrog’ed with my strongest two plants. Trying to pull some very heady buds so went all out on Advsnced Nutrients. Going to A/b test with budget synthetics next grow

🌱 Ghost Train Haze — Week 5 From Seed (Late Veg / Pre-Transition) This week nature reminded us who’s in charge. Outside temps dropped to 4–5°C with 90–95% humidity, and instead of fighting it, we adapted — and so did the girls. 🌡️ Environment • Tent temperature: ~21.8°C • RH: ~58% Considering the outside conditions, this is a very comfortable and stable environment, and the plants are showing zero stress signs. Leaf posture is relaxed, growth is steady, and overall vitality is excellent. We’re embracing seasonal changes rather than forcing extremes — and the plants are responding beautifully. ⸻ Nutrition & Watering Strategy Hand-Watered Plants • pH: 5.9 • EC: 1.43 • New addition this week: CalMag Pro — 1 ml/L This is not a reaction to deficiencies. Calcium and magnesium become increasingly important during this phase due to: • accelerating cell division • structural development • increasing transpiration as light intensity rises Introducing CalMag before problems appear helps maintain: • stronger cell walls • stable nutrient uptake • smoother transition toward flowering This is prevention, not correction. ⸻ Autopot Zone • EC: 2.29 • pH: 6.0 • Solution temperature: ~22.8°C In the Autopots we’re running minerals only. Organic inputs don’t behave consistently in passive systems and can lead to: • biofilm buildup • line blockages • unstable nutrient availability Keeping this zone clean, mineral-based, and predictable ensures long-term stability. ⸻ 💡 Light & PPFD • PPFD range: ~700–850 (depending on plant size) • Top light: 100%, unchanged • Plants are praying constantly and clearly growing toward the light — no pushing, no forcing. Under-Canopy & Inner-Canopy Lighting • Beginning of week: OFF • End of week: ON (very gently) This is not to increase total PPFD yet. The goal right now is education, not intensity. By introducing photons: • from below • from inside the canopy • from multiple angles …we’re teaching the plant early that light is everywhere, preparing structure and bud sites for later stages. Intensity will increase only as the plants evolve. ⸻ 🌿 Training & Structure • No heavy training • No aggressive defoliation • Only: • leaf tucking • gentle branch bending • very light LST These plants are naturally compact, with: • beautiful branching • large, healthy leaves • lush green color • excellent vigor in the Autopots Growth is slower compared to other plants in the room, which may be linked to the sativa-leaning genetics. In my experience, sativas often: • develop more slowly early • take longer to finish • but reward patience later We’ll let the plant tell the story. ⸻ 🌸 Veg or Flower? This is a 12/12 from seed run. Some plants in the room are already showing pre-flower. Ghost Train Haze is not — and that’s completely fine. She is still in vegetative growth, building structure. Delayed transition can often mean: • more stretch later • potentially larger final size But we don’t guess — we observe. The plant flips when she’s ready, not when the calendar says so. ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap for Newcomers • Week 5 from seed • Still vegetative • 12/12 light cycle • Stable environment despite harsh weather outside • Preventive CalMag introduced • Clean mineral strategy in Autopots • Multi-angle lighting slowly being introduced • Minimal intervention, maximum observation ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect (and What Not To) Expect: • continued structural development • slow, steady growth • eventual self-triggered transition Do NOT expect: • forced flowering • rushed development • aggressive training This run is about letting the plant express herself naturally. ⸻ 🙏 Thanks Big thank you to everyone following along, supporting, and sharing knowledge. Appreciation as always to the sponsors — including Lumiflora for the under-canopy lighting — and to the community that makes these shared journals meaningful. Growers love Onward, calmly and patiently. 👽 New team member Meet Mr. Baggy Our new fluffy alien/beaver/whatever-he-is friend, won through a Grow Diaries contest. Expect to see him around — he’s officially part of the grow now. Week 5 Veg/pre-flower | 8×8 Tent | Master Conditions 🌍 External Environment (Context) • Outside temperature: ~5 °C • Outside RH: 92–96% (very high humidity) • Strong seasonal pressure influencing internal stability ⸻ 🌡️ Internal Tent Conditions • Tent temperature: ~21.8 °C (noted drop due to cold external temps) • Tent RH: ~58% → Very good considering outside conditions ⸻ 💨 Airflow & Circulation • Primary airflow: Bottom → top → wall return • Pattern: Full-room vortex circulation • Additional fans: Central airflow to break blind spots and mix layers • Goal: No stagnant pockets, uniform VPD across canopy ⸻ 💧 Water Source & Rationale • Water: Dehumidifier water + rainwater • Base EC: force • Systems designed to support plant intelligence, not override it FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

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 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.

The Canopy was so full and i decide today to make another Defoliation for better Light Penetration. I have just 11-16 Days left for the original Harvest Date. Just hope that i don’t get some Bananas now somewhere in the Buds 😌😃 better to make it right the last two times. But i don’t want to take to much In Future Runs i know now how to do it Only give Water with PH 6.8 until harvest. No Nutrients anymore Maybe wait one or two Weeks longer to get bigger Buds and more Couchlock Effect from it

2 more weeks , slowing down on the feed next week then a flush

Hello friends In the last week I have reduced the growth fertilizer by half because there were signs of excess nitrogen. The flowers of one plant look really good and smell great but I feel that the other plant will not yield the same quality. Both are of the same breed from FASTBUDS but behave and look different. Hopefully the other flower will also be able to produce beautiful and oily flowers. I'm a little apprehensive about the appearance of the leaves and can't figure out why they change color and is it because they're nearing the end.

Day 63 She got flushed a few days ago to see if i could prevent the issues that already happened with the other plants, but didn't seem to help the situation much just brought new issues to the table. Shes starting to put on some size now, shes got atleast another 4 weeks on her to go if not 5 weeks. Cant smell her whatsoever, just zero odour atm hopefully something develops smell wise soon.

Starting uv-b light

Today is Day 50 !! We have started flower an they are just looking amazing! We have switched up the nutrients for flower, instead of 1 tsp bloom and 3 tsp of veg , we just swap 3 tsp of bloom and 1 tsp of veg !! Can’t wait to see what these laddies do this week!!

Smells nice
