This girl keeps growing. Started shortening her light cycle as she is getting really big. I have bent the main tops so often so that the rest can catch up. She looks great thought... Love this plant.

~ AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow System sponsored by GrowAce, featuring Tropicana Cookies by FastBuds ~ Well guy's and gal's here we go again on another exciting Autoflower run together! This time will be different as I will be doing a 'Hydroponic' run utilizing the AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow System by GrowAce, who were kind enough to sponsor me for this run, so it should be interesting to see what results I get and have some fun along the way! •Let me first tell you about this 6 Pot Ebb/Flow system from GrowAce: "The AirCube system is the one and only Ebb & Flow grow system on the market that combines the benefits of air pruning with a fully automated Ebb+Flow system! With the AirCube's proprietary fabric pot in bucket design, this system is guaranteed to outgrow any other Ebb + Flow system on the market. The results speak for themselves- grow MASSIVE roots that result in MASSIVE fruits! Air Pruning- Air Pruning only happens with fabric pots. As the roots reach the fabric walls of the pot, they penetrate and grow into the breathable fabric. Once penetrated, the roots are exposed to air, which causes the tips of the root to dehydrate and naturally prune themselves. This natural pruning process forces the roots to grow tons of lateral fibrous feeder roots. This results in a plant that utilizes the entire root zone and fills the entire pot with tons of roots. These fibrous feeder roots are incredibly effective in uptaking water and nutrients, resulting in a plant that grows healthier and more vigorously! Oxygen Benefits- Without oxygen, nutrient absorption cannot occur. On a molecular level, oxygen is needed to transmit nutrients across the cell walls and into the roots of a plant. With the AirCube's proprietary bottom lifted draining design, the system actively draws all of the water out of the bucket pulls vital oxygen into the root zone. Maximum Versatility with Any Grow Medium: The AirCube System is the only system on the market that allows you to use any growing medium you like. Use coco coir, soil, peat moss, perlite, vermiculite, hydroton, rockwool or any other medium you wish! This system is the most versatile Ebb and Flow bucket system in today's hydroponics industry. Temperature Control- with the fabric pots constructed with highly porous polypropylene fabric, heat dissipates easily and effectively. Unlike standard plastic pots, heat isn't trapped in the root zone. Heat in standard plastic containers can reach temperatures of up to 125 degrees. When this type of heat is trapped and unable to escape, it can damage your plant's health and limit the potential of your harvest. Growing in the AirCube System, plant roots grow cooler, healthier, and more vigorous. Largest Pots in its Class- this system features 5 Gallon grow buckets, the largest pot size of any other ebb and flow hydroponic system in the market. Modular and Expandable- start with 6 grow buckets and expand up to 36 grow buckets with the optional 105 gallons PopTank reservoir!" For my medium and nutrients I decided to also switch things up from my regular Organic runs, going with Plagron Nutrients and Root Royale 70/30 Coco/Perlite. When filling the fabric pots with medium, I first added just under a gallon of horticulture perlite from Nor-Cal as a base layer to ensure good drainage and then filled the remainder with the Root Royale. •Now for the outstanding, award winning strain from my friends at FastBuds... Tropicana Cookies Auto: I'll be running Tropicana Cookies Autoflower which is a 60/40 Indica/Sativa Hybrid. "Tropicana Cookies Auto is the perfect variety for growers of all levels, especially beginners as this strain performs very well outdoors and indoors, and can produce up to 500 gr/m2 in 56-63 days without needing extra maintenance. Reaching up to 110 cm, this strain grows fairly tall with medium-sized branching, showing its mixed heritage. Definitely the right choice for those with a high tolerance looking to get their hands on the strongest autoflowers out there. You can expect an extremely powerful and long-lasting high that’ll boost your mood and give you that extra push you need to start your days on the right foot. This variety offers the whole range of citrus and woody flavors with a strong candy-sweet background that will keep you coming back for more and more."* *References: GrowAce.com, 2fast4buds.com ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: • AC Infinity 4x4 tent •AC Infinity Cloudline T6 Exhaust Fan w/ Controller 67 •HLG 650R w/UVA Bar *** For some reason GD does NOT have a listing for the USA version of the 650R so I selected the closest match to it. •AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow 6 pot System •DL Wholesale Root Royale Coco Lite 70/30 coco/perlite •TrolMaster Hydro-X Controller for light •AutoPilot APC8200 co2 controller fed by a 50# tank •16" Hurricane oscillating fan and 8" floor fan •Tent cooling via filtered outside air delivered by AC Infinity Cloudline T6 fan •BlueLab instruments: PH Pen and Truncheon Nutrient Meter ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 11/12- Week Three of flower, here we go! The FastBuds Tropicana Cookies are all doing great! Two plants, the #1 & #3, are expressing a beautiful dark purple coloration in their flowers, while the #2's flowers are the normal green with snow white pistils and already have a good amount of trichomes formed. I'm continuing to feed them 6 times a day for 15min. each feed, and have adjusted the nutrient level down to 800ppms. The 650R is now 26" above canopy, set to 100% output. 11/14- I'm continuing with daily monitoring of the AirCube reservoir, checking/adjusting ph and topping off with straight water. The solution strength in the reservoir is still hitting 650ppm but is starting to get discolored so I'll be doing a drain/refill in the next 48hrs before it gets funky. 11/17- Today I drained the reservoir and refilled it with straight well water that has a .3 EC(100ppm) to which I added Plagron's Cocos 'A' and 'B' in equal amounts, Green Sensation, and Royal Rush at 1ml/L and 2ml/L respectively. I also added the last dose of silica, then ph'd the solution to 5.7 @ 69℉. I also went through all three plants, adjusting their LST and tucking a few leaves that were blocking light. 11/18- There goes Week 3 of flower and I can't wait for the upcoming weeks where these ladies will really be strutting their stuff! 💚 Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow what you love, Love what you grow!💚

All in all, as my 2nd grow of Cindy, I can't recommend it highly enough. Great stealth grow, had no filtration at all for the 1st grow & had a mild lawn / grapefruit hint, stronger when pruned or harvested. Your neighbours wouldn't know, if you care. It's a survivor, my 1st was too hot, too moist, wrong pot, over watered, pruned too often (until near bald of leaves). Had a total grow of 25wks, Veg stage 12wks (should've been less) First harvest @ 21wks & completely undeserved but gobsmacking harvest of... total bud wet just over 2kg (2053g) & Dry 14oz (399g) It was led (1200w) & hps (150w) grown & the new plant has behaved very differently under the cmh's. The 2nd stretched considerably, the first didn't but was probably permanently in shock. It'll be interesting to see how this one compares. Although, yet again, I let it get far far too big before putting it to flower so will selectively harvest in the hope of bulking some of the lower buds. Same smoking effect as the first but more temple numbing. It's a beautifully flavoured smoke, doesn't smell much & is grapefruitey. Very uplifting, happy, bordering on giggley. No couch lock at all & good function retained. There's a long lasting sedative / happy high after the initial whack wears off & surprisingly doesn't diminish overly in effect from tolerance. My personal fave

Finally harvest time arrived 🤗 It’s been a great run, though I had to improve a lot along the way. But as usual there was a way to get things done and finished up😎 After a long heatwave I decided to chop the whole tent, just a bit before I actually wanted to. But I see amber trichomes and heavy buds, so I think it’s safe to chop now, so here we go. 🤩 Can’t wait to taste this after so long watching over it🤤 More details to come.

1/30 backed a&b down to 9ml each and added first dose of pk 13/14 @ 4ml. Ppm clocked in @ 900. Reminder, these ladies are on constant drip feeding via troph blumats. They drip non stop and rarely is there any runoff and the media never dries out. I do flush with florakleen about every 2 weeks. Verticle growth ceased all plants. Airpots have been fully penetrated all around from top to bottom, roots are bright white and healthy. 2/1 finally recieved extension and raised lights up. No evidence of burn but it was a little too close 2/2 ordered high CFM kit for the gorilla tent. Walls sucked in much further and intruding on space. 2/3 spoke with the person I acquired the LS clone from and found out he grew it from DNA Genetics seed

02.11.'24 After 5 days of drying, this little girl who was a little bigger than a meter gave 950 grams and a little bit of popcorn...this picking was 870 and a little bit of popcorn, and 4-5 weeks ago during a storm, one branch broke, which yielded about 100, but let's say 80 for sure, a total of 950 grams of beautiful, huge, potent buds

Greetings, fellow ninja enthusiasts! Get ready for another exciting update on our Lego Ninja Tropical Tangie Run. Week 6 has been a whirlwind of growth and training, and our Tangie is shaping up to be a true ninja superstar! First, let's talk about the transplant. Our Tangie has outgrown her previous home, so I fearlessly transferred her to a spacious 25-liter fabric pot. With the help of Aptus Holland Mycor Mix, I ensured a smooth transition, providing her with beneficial mycorrhizal fungi to establish a strong root system. It's like giving her a ninja squad of underground helpers! To support her growth and development, I mixed 75 grams of Aptus All-in-One Pellets into the soil. These pellets are like ninja power capsules, packed with essential nutrients that will fuel her journey to greatness. With each watering, she'll receive the perfect dose of nourishment, ensuring optimal health and vitality. But that's not all! My trusty Lego Ninja buddies have been by my side throughout the process. They provide moral support and keep the ninja vibes strong in the grow room. Who knew little plastic warriors could be such great companions on this green adventure? After the transplant, it was time to introduce our Tangie to the art of scrogging. I installed a scrog net, creating a framework for her to weave her way through. It's like a ninja obstacle course, challenging her to grow horizontally and maximize her bud production. She's already showing off her impressive moves, filling up the space with her graceful and sexy growth. Of course, proper nutrition is vital for our Tangie's ninja training. I've been using Aptus Holland Veg Watering Mix, enriched with the goodness of All-in-One Liquid. This dynamic duo ensures she receives the perfect blend of macro and micronutrients, giving her the strength and energy to become a legendary ninja warrior. As she continues her ninja journey, our Tangie is bathed in a PPFD of 500. These photons are like her ninja training partners, encouraging robust photosynthesis and explosive growth. With each photon absorbed, she becomes more formidable, ready to take on the challenges that lie ahead. In summary, Week 6 has been a thrilling chapter in our Lego Ninja Tropical Tangie Run. With a successful transplant, the magic of Aptus products, the support of our Lego Ninja buddies, and the installation of the scrog net, our Tangie is on her way to becoming a true ninja warrior. Stay tuned for the next update, where we'll dive deeper into the ninja training techniques and witness the unfolding of our Tangie's ninja powers. Until then, keep cultivating with joy, embrace the ninja spirit, and remember that every plant has the potential to become a botanical ninja superstar!

Both are looking good, very big and colorful! They are both suffering from a slight nute burn so I’ll be cutting down on nutes from here on. Defoliating a bit here and there but cruising along for the rest 🔥

Plants are looking awesome. Skullcap is extremely frosty, the whole tent reeks and no hiccups. I've noticed that the (14) pineapple express #2 seems to be less dense of a bud cola, its looking like the (15) Pineapple express #2 is the better version. If it doesn't tighten up this one's out of the running. I already got rid of the skullcap mom, great quality, but not the quantity I wanted to see.

7.14.25. Finally harvested this plant! Quality of buds look pretty good even though I diminished the harvested big time by stunting her in vegetative stage and she never recovered! Wet weight of buds was only 25.7 grams. Definitely will be ordering this strain again and correct what went wrong on this grow. Thank you for looking at grow I appreciate it! Will be back in 1-2 months with new grow!

Going great. Just topped, transplanting by Saturday into final 5 gallon smart pots. 1/4 nutes. Probably fire up the MH after transplant.
