Boom Day 28 after flip. She’s showing off big time. Cleaned her up real good on day 21 before lights out and will defol a lil bit here and there. Feeding really hard cuz it’s hammer time, some stuff like calcium and Bloom Khaos is almost double what is recommended on the feeding chart. And giving strong teas in between with Flower Finisher (1-5-7) and CytoPlus (0-0-7.5) for that extra kick of K. Bti for the win! I’ve been brewing AquaBac (in a tea ball) for 24hrs in ph’d water before adding stuff for ‘instant tea’ …I’m seeing one or two fungus gnats flying around and maybe like 3-4 new lil fuckheads on the sticky traps compared to 10-15 before. Was gonna get some nematodes and/or spray the top soil/cover crop with neem oil but I don’t think I have to (for now). Lights are blasting at 95% and about 13” away and she smells so good. That’s all for now. Thanks for stopping by and happy gardening 🌱🌱

Hey there, my fellow ninja enthusiasts! Week 12 in our Tropical Tangie Ninja Run has been a wild ride, packed with thrilling developments and a few climate surprises. Let's dive in – this week, the temperature decided to crank up to a sizzling 32°C! As the guardian of my Tangie, I had to spring into action. To maintain a comfortable environment for her, I cranked up the humidity to a cozy 75%. Why, you ask? Well, it's all about VPD – Vapor Pressure Deficit. This fancy term essentially means we're striving to keep the air conditions as close as possible to the optimal range for plant health. Think of it as creating a ninja-approved climate! Now, let's talk trichomes. Oh boy, the trichome production this week has been off the charts! These little resin factories are working overtime, and the results are nothing short of mesmerizing. The numbers are outstanding, and the formation is simply beautiful. Our Tangie is turning into a trichome queen! But that's not all. This week, I've been all about that Zen garden vibe. I've been zenning out and sharing my herbal medicine not only with my plant but also with my ninja buddies. It's like a little garden party with a side of relaxation. Now, onto the numbers game – I raised the TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) to 400 and bumped up the pH to 6.3. Why, you ask? Well, it's all about fine-tuning the nutrient solution. These adjustments ensure our Tangie gets the right balance of nutrients, promoting optimal growth and flowering. It's like giving her a customized meal plan for maximum ninja power! So there you have it – a blast of a week in the world of our Tropical Tangie Ninja Run. As always, I'm here, sharing the journey with you all. Stay tuned for more ninja updates, and remember, every twist and turn in this adventure is a testament to our dedication and love for the art of cultivation. Keep the ninja spirit alive, my leafy warriors!

Grüßt euch Freunde, Langsam kommen wir ans Ende der 5 Woche! Habe in dieser Woche keinen Bio grow zugeführt und eine Verbesserung festgestellt. Dafür wurde top Max angehoben und Bio Bloom. Fahre im weiteren Verlauf nun wieder nach Düngeschema fort. Viele der Blätter verfärben sich rötlich und die Blattspitzen der sugarleafs sind lila. Hoffe dass, das dann später auch im Produkt sichtbar ist. Sind also noch einige Wochen zu gehen, Bis dahin euch allen eine gute Woche !💚

Day 53: In this last week I moved all the plants again and removed the leaves and branches for the last time. Twenty or twenty-five days at the most for the first harvest, and I can already draw up a final report on the genetics of this strain. On eight plants of Gorilla four showed a predominance indica with a large central cola and less ramifications. Two plants are much more bushy have a sativa predominance with longer buds and have branched out a lot. For the last two unfortunately has dominated the photoperiodic genetics and their flowering is considerably late, so as to be overcome by the two cheeses that are in bloom more advanced. However, the pistils have popped up and started to bloom, so the autoflowering genetic part is present. I am a patient grower anyway, so I will wait for them to complete their cycle even if I have to wait about three months. In these days I have added to my secret garden four other varieties: 1 Purple Glam Kush and 1 Sweet Tooth Auto by Bulk Seeds, 1 Critical Rapid by Barney's Farm and 1 Northern Lights x Blueberry by i49 Seeds. New dedicated journals on arrival 😉

Update: I made a Flowering feed guide for myself so I figured I would share it. I'm going to do a small flush on them soon to remove nutrient buildup. I'm sure it will help finished quality. The first girl has been stretching all week. I have had to LST branches to keep her short. I hope she is done stretching but if not I will just keep tying branches down. She did make it too close to a light and it burned one of her buds. It did not cause any issues tho. On the second girl I was tying down the main stem and damn near snapped it off. I freaked out and cried IRL. 😭 I braced the top broken half and taped it up then I gave her a large dose of Silica and Recharge to help her recover. Only the broken top of the main stem went a droopy for 4 days and she almost stopped growing. She developed some rust spots on some of her fan leafs. I gave her Cal-Mag the second I saw the spots developing but they developed regardless. My guess is that she used energy in her fan leafs to help her recover. The good news is she looks fully recovered. 👊 I can feel a knot where the break is, very fast recovery for such a bad break. For sure this was my worst LTS accident to date. I will get a pictures of the break when I feel comfortable removing the tape. I upgraded there lights with 2x 100w 3000k flood lights with the lens plate removed. I have had really good results with these lights in previous grows and they are thin so they fit perfectly. I now have: 2x Castnoo 300s (really 100w) 1 Grow Star 150 UFO(really 70w) 2x Viugreum 100w 3000k thin flood lights (really 60w) 2x MAIICY 45w (really 30w) That's a total of 450 true watts. 225w for each of these girls. Very bright inside. Maybe over kill?

Getting hot here. Scattered thunderstorms, very windy. The girls are loving life. I am hoping the strawberries and cream will be a male. I’d like to see what I can come up with, breeding it with the Afghani Purple Kush and the Platinum Silk. Watering almost daily until I see a bit of water coming out of the bottom. Supersoil is holding strong and keeping them very healthy. I am going to start another Round of sprays with azamax. I will do once every 8 days at 1.5oz per gallon in a pump sprayer. I have seen several leafhoppers on my plants. Most of the other insect life I posted pictures of have not been seen on my plants, except hover flies!

Final painting and floor trim completed. Walls are white and bright. I started to construct the main flood table. It is made of 2x3's and a sheet of chipboard. I fastened some rails at the perimeters and used caulking to seal all gaps. I will coat the face of the chipboard with a polyurea flat roof coating to make it completely watertight. I have 1/4 : 12 slope on it right now so that it drains to the reservoir end. I stained the sides of the table grey to match the floor trim because ambiance matters Shelves are up to hold my nutes/test pens/genetics/nug/papers/etc... I brought in one of the 3 HLG 550 clone qb's to test for light as I have never seen them in action. WOW!! Having one running is quite intense, I cant wait to see what all 3 going over the 4x10 area will look like (with shades on of course) A minor adjustment is needed to the height of the A/C exhaust vent. It is currently too high by 2" and needs to be lowered. Kind of a pain in the ass, but needs to be done for the table to fit snug. Previous total spend $2430 This weeks spend = $50 (hardware) $165 - killer deal on ebay for 8 inch fan/filter/ducting. open box, new

I do not know how much the outcome is cause i have to harvest the lower part of the plant i think the tottal amoint will be around 90-100 gr. I highly recommend to all auto flowering growers ro grow this strain. She can compet with photoperiodic strains and she will eat them with their shit!!!! ))))) UPDATE: as i told u i left lower buds to rippen and now it was time to harvest i got extra 25 grs so totally it was 90 gr of dry weight now its ready to cure

The colas keep filling out and getting longer and smell amazing. It's been warmer and more humid outside so RH in the tent has gone up. I added a mini air purifier I wasn't using (no ozone) as an extra precaution against mildew. I woke up in the middle of the night on Monday and realized that the air purifier has a light on it so I got up and turned it off. I was worried that I'd messed with the dark cycle so I left them in darkness for an extra 2.5 hours. My cool tube fan fell off the next day, onto my plants. They look undamaged. I taped it up again and set up a safety wire like the filter and fan have. I need a better solution for next cycle. The buds are beautiful and having an even canopy is great. It's hard not thinking about the end result. The buds still look small compared to the big colas of a traditional grow shape but there's still a couple weeks left. There is some bud formation under the canopy but it's a little light. The tops of the colas are fat but short on the 7 gallon plants and taller and thinner on the 5 gallon plants. I did leave a couple offshoots on that developed in late veg/early flower. By the time I caught them, I felt they were too mature to chop and I thought they helped fill out certain areas. But those ones have fewer bud sites and tend to be just a cola on a branch that shoots straight up which is still good. I do wonder if less crowding would have given me bigger buds, but I think it has more to do with pot size. This is week 7 of flower. I switched to half strength nutes and started adding fancy molasses (18ml/gallon). I broke my pH tester and didn't replace my SCROG net until after I finally watered the next day so the canopy changed a bit. I took the opportunity to rearrange the plants a bit. Crystal formation increased a crazy amount the day after I started adding molasses. I think I'll keep adding molasses even during flush. The CBD Blue Shark has this really beautiful white glow. The pistils are very strong and white and the trichromes reflect back this silver light. The leaves are a nice semi-glossy dark green which gives great contrast. It's just a beautiful plant. The Wedding Cake has a lot more colour with lots of red hairs and some yellow tones in the pistils. The fan leaves are more prone to yellowing and death than the leaves on the CBD BS. The buds seem more structurally dense and are really working on these pyramid shapes that look like delicious orange and green snacks. The buds on the CBD Blue Shark are more symmetrical and kind of otherworldly like some kind of sea creature.

12/15: Some plants are taking too long to transition and stretching beyond my space constraints, so I dialed the photoperiod back to 12/12. 12/16: Fed today and rotated edge plants. Added another 150w of 3000k below the canopy. 12/17: Worked on ventilation...no A/C necessary now, as I'm using another AC Infinity 6" fan to intake outdoor air into the closet whenever temps reach 75f..and it's been cold as hell outside.👍 The final trick will be to replace the 6" exhaust fan with an 8" so as to be able to fully exchange the closet air faster ...but that's gonna have to wait til next season.
