One of the plants has a slight pie dough smell, but still very minimal smell when I open the tent. EDIT: the smell is actually making it passed my carbon filter, and I am not sure why it is only 1 of the 2 plants giving off the heavy smell as well. The chunkier/darker colour one is the one that smells real heavy, smells really creamy/doughy. UV/IR has been on for the past few weeks, and will stay on until the end. The plants have gone through a bunch of issues so far, and are still going strong. Gave a tablespoon of power bloom to each, on day 31.

Yep, I have been so lazy keeping my diary up to date, life gets in the way sometimes๐Ÿ™„ Im on week 19 or there abouts. So a few things, As of about a week ago, I thought I was close to harvest, I had advice to start harvest when around 60% of the pistils had turned color and curled along with the trichomes becomming cloudy. I cant really get a good look at the trichomes no matter what I try but a couple did appear amber which I was told you can probably get away with a few amber spots, but it is a good indication that its probably a good time to harvest? With that, I thought it be a good time to start flushing, so I started using just clean water to start the process at about week 18. Started getting from what it looked like last time, cal deficiency, so I added cal mag, slowly cleared but now it looks burnt either from nutrients or light๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿฝ 4 days ago I noticed a sudden growth spurt with new growths throughout the buds, as you can tell in the pics. So I went back to adding just bud candy in the water..Stupid idea? And now today I have noticed fuzzy white mold and yellow gold spots in the soil. I dont know if it is harmful or a good indication? Should I just harvest it or let it grow further? Some advice would be much appreciated at this point. Other than that, it has been a super long and slow grow and I am so keen for it to be harvested already as you know, it is my first grow after all. PeaceโœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜Š

So heres my germination method. Soak/shake seeds in 3% h202 solution for a few minutes and let sit until tiny bubbles form on seed coat. Rinsed in clean rain water. Then placed in HPO's GREEN-SUPREME used as seed soak solution. With a small amount of ANTI-MATTER for enzymes. Soaked 12hrs (mostly I just soak a few hrs) Straight into Gro-Dirt Super Starter soil. Watered seeds in gently with diluted DARK-MATTER solution to get the mycorrhizal species attached as soon as possible. Once they came up, 18-24hrs later, sprayed gently with a mix of GREEN-SUPREME & RHIZO-MOJO Just a small pinch of both in a 1ltr spray bottle. All this was done in a dark warm place on a heat mat. In a humidity dome.

Flowering day 74 since time switch to 12/12 h. Hey guys :-) Finally the time has come . The lady was harvested and hung upside down in the dry tent ๐Ÿ˜. Before that, she stood in the drying tent in complete darkness for 2 days and the large leaves were removed. The small leaves stay attached during the drying process so that they protect the buds and allow them to dry more slowly and evenly :-) . In the dry tent, the temperature is 18-19.5 degrees and the humidity is 54-58% ๐Ÿ‘. In this environment they are now allowed to hang for 10-14 days before they are fine-tuned and trimmed clean by hand. then after trimming they come to ferment for 6-12 weeks in dark jars with bobeda packs 62% to keep the perfect humidity. After a few weeks, the Boveda packs 58% are used so that they can slowly dry out :-) . Of course there is one last update after trimming. Until then, I wish you a lot of fun with the update. Stay healthy and let it grow ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ You can buy this strain at : https://www.exoticseed.eu/ Water ๐Ÿ’ง ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿ’ง Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

So basically for some reason I wasn't able to add my next week which caused me to start this "duplicate first grow diary". Then I decided trying to split my diary into four separate ones to better catalogue my grow, and I'm just having a lot of issues getting everything straight. SO! I decided to continue posting full scope pictures of the whole setup, all four plant sets included. Will try to update more on everything tomorrow!

16/07 - Week 6 of veg and the ladies are looking very happy after their last watering yesterday. I added some nutes for flowering and they are about to reach the scrog net. I will flip in a few days when the Lemon skunk grow hits week 6 as well. 18/07 - Watered with just water phd at 6.8. Gave both of them 1L. One of the plants had some burnt/curling tips so I increased the light by 5 cm. Three more days until flip. Iโ€™m expecting a lot of vertical growth in the next few weeks. 21/07 - I watered the brown pit with 1L of water. The other pot still felt a little heavy so Iโ€™ll water it tomorrow. Hope you have a great day! Peace

I wish you all a nice week, stay healthy ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป and let it grow ๐ŸŒฑ

This is still week 7 but a couple days after last weeks pictures. The Photos havenโ€™t fully flipped to flower but are showing clear signs. Really pleased with Somango and BCP but Iโ€™m not really liking the way LSD is growing. Doesnโ€™t have an abundance of leaves and is growing really long Branches. Weโ€™ll see how that goes in Flower, I hope itโ€™s not going to turn in to a lot of Space and/or humidity Problems.

Week 8 of our Lego Ninja Tropical Tangie Run has been an incredible rollercoaster of growth and excitement. Our Tangie is evolving into a true botanical ninja superstar! With her rapid growth, I made a bold decision to give her a full defoliation! What does this mean? Well, it's like a ninja makeover, where we removed all the leaves from her stems. Don't worry, it might sound drastic, but it's a ninja-approved technique used to maximize her potential. During this process, I carefully removed every leaf, allowing more light to reach the lower branches and bud sites. It's like clearing the path for her to channel all her energy into producing top-quality buds. Our Tangie is a champion, and she took this defoliation challenge like a true ninja warrior! After the defoliation, I was amazed to see how quickly she bounced back. She's incredibly resilient! You wouldn't even notice she underwent such a transformation; the grow room is already looking lush and vibrant again. Now, with all the unnecessary leaves gone, she can focus her energy on producing larger, denser, and more potent buds. It's like giving her a clear ninja path to success! But let's not forget the most important partโ€”nutrition. With her full defoliation, it's essential to provide her with the perfect fuel for her ninja journey. I continue to rely on the powerful Aptus All-in-One Pellets, which act as her trusty ninja power capsules, delivering all the essential nutrients she needs with each watering. The canopy is filling up once again, and our Tangie is now ready to continue her incredible growth journey. The room looks as if no defoliation ever happened! Thanks to the support and fantastic products from Aptus Holland, Dutch Passion, and Grow Diaries, our Tangie keeps showing us her ninja potential. Stay tuned for the next update, where we'll dive deeper into our Tangie's growth and unveil more ninja training techniques. Keep cultivating with joy, embrace the ninja spirit, and remember, with love and passion, anything is possible in the world of growing! As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life<3 <3 <3 #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience #dutchpassion #dogdoctorofficial #legoninjago #growerslove โ€จ With true love comes happiness <3 <3 <3 Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so <3 <3 <3 Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only <3 <3 <3 Growers Love To you All <3 <3 <3
