-6/18/23 Start of Week --Week 13/Flower 7 -6/24/23 (Day 98/Flower 50) --Observations: getting vary resinous, smells of skunk/earthy with sweet lemon citrus. under buds are filling in and starting to merge with the upper buds --Changes: heat and humidity changed, selective defoliation and burnt tip removal, removed some of the basil, no nutrients for this entire week --Comments: preformed a selective defoliation to open up space so that the lower growth can receive more light during the last few days of its life, also removed some of the burnt leaf tips. removed more of the lemon basil because it was hanging over the purple lemonade again. did not give nutrients this week because the end of the competition is coming up and there were signs of nutrient burn, might as well be week 1 flush. the sent keeps getting stronger and now has more of a skunk/earthy dominance with sweet lemon citrus undertones, hoping that the lemon carries over to the smoke after curing. -6/24/23 End of Week -post-note: will be harvesting sometime next week, would like to have at least 5 days for hang dry before the @Fast_Buds Fast Flowering contest ends.

Was an easy grow, took lst and defoliation well. Only took 70 days from seed to harvest with roughly 10-15% amber trichomes. In the last couple of weeks of flowering she absolutely stank! And she got frostier by the day, if you rub a fan leaf and smell your fingers you get a sweet mango at first then rub a bit more and you get more fruits, citrus and maybe berries 🤤 I really can’t wait to smoke some, I hope she tastes as well as she smells. I’ve made up a dry box with a computer fan stuck in the side at the top and draw vents in the sides at the bottom covered with filter. Humidity is around 54% and temp at 20°c currently in the box, all sealed for 5 days. After opening the box on day 5 I closed it up for another two days as it wasn’t quite ready. Trimmed up after 7 days of drying and I’ve been left with 64.09g of good bud and 7.61g of fluff and a lot of trim! After a couple of days in a jar the humidity is at 59%.

Miracle Berry Remix #1 and Mango Smile are throwing preflowers and stretching every day. I removed the scrog tent for now to get a little more vertical action going. I probably defoliate too much but I'm obsessed with getting light to bud sites...so I dunno. UPDATE: I clearly didn't. They responded very well over the rest of the week. They really took off. Strawberry Nuggets has some nutrient burn on the new growth. Looks fine though since it hasn't progressed. The SN canopy is going to be really nice. I moved the Bodhi's to a new tent. I super crop pretty frequently as well....I also did some serious LST to the CDLC since her node spacing is so tight. Light wasn't getting anywhere.

Flower Day 7: All the sweet ladies are now showing their female flowers. Gorilla Girl #1 Is taking a really bushy appearance and has a liyltmof small flower tops appearing within the bush. She is young looking regarding her overall appearance but still only a dmfew days behind the much faster #2. #2 Is way ahead of rhebfield in terms of flowering progress. she is the main reason for the timing on a full week of flowering. She has so e very big fan leaves that are beginning to her in the way of emerging buds. Tucking them away is not an easy task now. No issues with feed or anything so far. I last watered the pots nearly a week ago and they are still woking their wet/dry cycle out. #3 in her smaller pot and her snapped limb , is motering along now with no signs of her previous trauma visible. The repair on the limb failed to take and I had to remove it again. #4 Is now rhe tallest and most vigorous looking after her slow start. Bending her over has helped to spread her out and given her lowers a good start at becoming mains too. She has a lot of good potential bud sites too and looks like she will fill her pot out nicely. Sweet Cheese is starting to enter the race too now. I do like the look of the " left alone natural shape she is putting out. I think i worry too much about height restriction and seeing how she grows will be a good test for that thought. Overall a good week with little to do besides leaf tucking and a little lst. Be safe and well Growmies.

I made a concoction of living soil using ingredients I could find of subcools formula. Theoretically all i need to add is ph balanced water. And a tea once I decide to flower. I'm waiting for some gadgets[ph and moisture meters]to come in before doing any extensive watering.

Royal Gorilla took 63 to harvest from 12/12 switch Very Sticky while trimming The buds I hung last night totalled 223 grams The trimmings totalled 35 grams I will update next week when things are dry and going into mason jars

Unreal how resinous the orange sherbet is. Smallest plant I've grown. Only 2.5oz on the dot. But top shelve for sure. Smoke some dry sift and its a hitter. Pupil dilating upper speed powder. Odd but grest.

The Harvest Prelude: After a patient wait and 48 hours of darkness, the moment arrived. The Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja, standing proudly like a silent guardian, was ready for the grand harvest. The sound of each cut echoed through the grow space, reminiscent of felling a mighty tree. The compact structure of the buds was awe-inspiring, a testament to the ninja's disciplined growth. The Lego Ninja, like a stoic warrior, was then hung upside down, beginning a two-week drying ritual. Maintaining an ambient temperature of around 21°C and a relative humidity of 60%, this slow-drying process allowed the buds to retain their essence, preserving the symphony of terpenes and cannabinoids. The trimming phase unfolded like a fragrant masterpiece. Each bud, adorned with a glistening layer of resin, transformed the trimming process into a sensory delight. The zesty aroma of oranges enveloped the room, a tangible expression of the tropical lineage. The compact buds made every snip a careful dance, revealing an abundance of frosty trichomes. The moment of reckoning arrived with the scale's unveiling. The Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja, from a single plant, bestowed upon me 309 grams of dried medicine. Each gram was a treasure trove of cannabinoids, a promise of euphoria and relief. The sheer compactness of the buds translated into a concentrated potency that left me in awe. In parallel, the clones, nurtured with equal care, showcased a fascinating divergence. A twist in the tale unfolded as the intense oranges of the mother transitioned into vibrant tangerines. This unique expression, I believe, was a testament to the clones weathering a summer heatwave differently, bringing forth a distinct personality. The clones, resilient and generous, gifted me a bountiful 549 grams of pure joy. This now my keeper of the garden, an embodiment of the Lego Ninja's legacy. The harvest dance, though familiar, carried the nuances of tangerine zest, a refreshing twist that left me eager to explore its intricacies. Both harvests shared a common thread—their resinous abundance. The trim bin, akin to a treasure chest, gleamed with golden trichomes and fragrant joy. Sticky fingers became a badge of honor, a tangible connection to the resinous richness that filled the room. Shout Outs: No harvest report is complete without expressions of gratitude. A special nod to @DutchPassion_Official for crafting the genetic marvel that is the Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja. Their expertise paved the way for this epic journey, and I tip my hat in acknowledgment. In conclusion: As the dust settles on this epic harvest saga, my heart brims with happiness and excitement. The Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja has proven itself not just as a plant but as a living masterpiece. Stay tuned for the smoke report, where we delve into the true essence of this botanical ninja's legacy. Until then, fellow cultivators, may your gardens flourish, and your harvests be as bountiful as the joy they bring.

Havrested a bit before just becouse i needed to have a harvest before the full one

Die letzte laufende Woche. Jetzt checke ich jeden Tag die Trichome ab und wenn alles mir gefällt, kommt sie 2 Tage ins dunkle, bevor ich sie aufhänge zum trocknen. Dünger gab es letzte mal vor eine Woche, seit dem nur noch mit Wasser gegossen. Die elenden Spinnenmilben haben es sich auf Ihr sehr bequem gemacht, so das ich bei ihr denke ein Budwashing machen werde vor dem Trocknen je nachdem wie viel Gespinste da sein werden. Die Raubmilben leisten trotzdem starken Widerstand und sind schon sehr aktiv dabei. Von den Terpenen her, habe ich ein absolutes Biest gegriffen! Bei dem entfernen so mancher Fächerblätter, überkam mir ein starker Geruch von Mandarinenschalen und Zitrusgerüchen... die schon ein wenig zu stark ausgeprägt waren und schon nach Parfumiertem Reinigungsmittel erinnerten. Oder an Toilettenerfrischer 😂 aufjedenfall ein absoluten Terp Monster so wie ich es nur bis jetzt ähnlich an der CBD 20:1 Auto von Fastbuds gerochen habe.

Week 17 Last week before harvest. Just let the plants ending the maturation process. Good synchronization between the different strains, selected with an approximate identical flowering period. I want harvesting all the plants at the same time. Flowers are dense, hard and thick, pretty resinous. 4 strains = 4 different smells, 4 different colors….🤩 I flushed consciously and stopped watering 4 days before the harvest day. I turned off the light during 48h, with ventilation on. All is ready for the cut. Date is programmed to the full moon period….why not…🤔 I will trim a little bit the plants before cutting and hanging them in the tent with the same ventilation cycle, no light of course…

Day 42. She’s flowering and looking beautiful. I defoliated her so she could get more light penetration to the lower bud sites. She’s drinking pretty consistently and eating heavy and she seems to be green and happy with life. Really excited to watch her book and see how big she will truly get.

Questo gorilla glu. Non ho fatto un diario , perché doveva farlo un altra persona.,......

La più grossa è già 85 cm....una vera Gorilla 🦍 Domani cambio una 50 di litri , diciamo che non voglio rischiare di bruciare la pompa sommersa cambiando totalmente l'acqua... sarebbe un problema svuotare l'impianto completamente...dovrei avere un altra pompa che mi aspiri tutti i 65/70 litri che ci sono adesso Ha superato di un paio di centimetri il metro di altezza una delle Gorilla Cookies...il problema dell' idroponica è che devi per forza fare lo Scrog,a quel punto riesci a tenere l'altezza anche delle altre Ho cambiato base per la fioritura, molto più indicati..Sensi Bloom A&B Advance nutrients ovviamente .. aggiungo big Bad... Ora cerco di lasciare le radici scoperte dalla soluzione in modo da indurre uno stress idrico e accelerare la prima fase di fioritura..da 5 a 8 cm. fuori dalla soluzione

Week 8 trimmed her pretty good to open her up. I spread branches to maximize their exposure to the hps. She has responded very well. The light burns seem to all be on the fans so they are doing their job and cooling off her flowers. Thanks again for looking!

7/6: Heavy thunderstorms last night and half the day today, so she won't be ready to eat again for a few days. I went out to the site about an hour after it quit raining today and saw HUNDREDS of tiny little green grasshoppers feasting on my girls!!! I immediately sprayed them all down with pyrethrins, and did it again right before dark. I've got the fan blowing across the pots to try to dry them out faster. I started using TPS One (one part nute solution) the other day, and the plants seem to love it. Really growing well, but I'm glad I amended their soil with some happy frog fruit and flower granular fertilizer this time. They get fed whether it's too wet or not. 7/7: Rained again last night...and more hoppers again this morning, so i sprayed with pyrethrins. 7/12: I tied down her main earlier this week and took about 5 or 6 cuttings from her today. Sprayed with Bt-k again, with some fulvic acid and silica.

Week 5 and we are sailing along just topped dressed the plants as of day 30 and feed them their weekly organic mater with compost tea and top dress some home made worm castings adding worms and biology to the soil. 2 more week since the one gallon and then into their final home. Removed all big fans as of day 31 to allow all side branches to grow out into a bush. The little fans will replace the bigger ones. Strong Smells of lemon lime noticeable after handling plants
