Last week transplanted the plants to their final containers. Approx 12L and 17L fabric pots. Did my best to transplant without disturbing the roots, by first placing the small container in the new container to make an hole in the dirt. And then cutting apart the small container instead of pulling out the plant. Then just fitting the root-ball into the already made hole. Root development looked pretty good when I did the transplant. Transplanted into a rather well-fertilized soil. Don't plan on fertilizing these plants during the whole grow unless I otherwise see a reason to. Also started LST last week, bending the plants somewhat extreme, but they're taking it just fine. Water here is rather alkaline, so I'm starting to control the PH of the water now. There's a clear skunk smell that started last week as well, but only when the tent has been opened. Still, it doesn't take much time to notice if you stick your head in the tent. And this is already starting in Week 2 of veg! So the charcoal filter is set up. Pretty happy with the development so far, although I've still been seeing some thrips. If they're not completely gone by next week, might end up mixing some of the spinosad into the water so the plants absorb it. Day 16 - Cut off one of the lower fan leaves on both plants. It was blocking the other nodes from receiving much light. I am already able to start noticing mandarin/tangerine undertones in the smell when I've handled the plants.

3rd week of Flowering is over and the stretching stopped. She received a big defoliation and bottom half is lollipoped. She just enjoys life and keeps growing her buds. Frosting slightly started.

I am extremely impressed: Zamnesia and Plagron !!!! Auto Runtz showed no negative emotions throughout the growth :) Plagron nutrients gave her what she wanted ;) In general, this whole trip was something unreal, (with such a result I have a little hope of winning a prize from the ongoing competition :D :D ) Her aroma is full of tropical fruits!!!! (I can't wait to taste her :D:D) So from my travel suitcase, I got 225 gr of wet harvest weight, I am really happy about that :) (probably 50-60gr of dry flowers), by the way, I will also publish the dry flower weight, as soon as she is ready for it :) I did a lot of photoshoots, but unfortunately my lighting was not good, so I didn't get to take better photos ... Thank you to the sponsors @Zamnesia @Plagron for the opportunity, you are amazing!!! good luck to everyone!!!! And now I can think about a new Suitcase Lady :).

I'm back for another update this week! It hasn't been a very busy week this week, the veg area is vegging and the flower area is on its last week before harvest. I've been taking very small cuttings (about .1 gram) and scoping the trikes using a 45x desktop microscope. Ethos: Lilac Diesel #22 (x) Grandpa's Cookies #7- This seedling is still doing well and branching out keeping a "v" shaped branch formation, thinner long leaves and decently far spaced nodes. It is still the tallest plant in the whole garden now standing at 19 inches tall. It's top four branches are beginning to develop smaller branches from them. HSO/ Giest Grow: Tow Truck- Unfortunately the Tow Truck showed signs of being a male. Last week I had assumed it was a male. But this week I was able to call it for certain. I don't have the space to keep any males, so I went ahead and cut it down. This diary will now be for the Ethos Seedling! It is feminized so it will surely go to the flower room with the Raspberry Ripple plants it shares a tent with. Raspberry Ripple Clones (#1 and #2)- These veg clones are still spreading out with branching decently. The #2 Phenos hit 12 inches in height and received their topping. So now all plants in the clone tent have been topped once. Flower Tent (Raspberry Ripple #1 and #2)- It is currently day 67 Flower, Under the HLG Blackbird. I went ahead and dimmed it down one level. I let my buddy use my PAR meter for a few days. But I'd assume it's probably about 450-700 PPFD on most top sites. I've assessed the trichomes today and last week. Most are getting cloudy but I'm gonna wait just a few more days, to push into some amber coverage. A lot of the #2 pheno top sites are now leaning over and being fully supported by the trellis. The little branches just couldn't support the massive flowers it grew. One of the #2 plants is still holding strong and standing tall. But 2/3 are pretty much fully supported by the trellis. The number one phenos are once again super thick stalked, with thick branches. One of the #1 plants, looks like it completely bottomed out this week. Most of its leaves are completely faded. The other plant of the #1 Phenos is much more bright and vibrant. There are still some straggling white pistil hairs left on the #1s but they are still changing color by the day. Pushing into day 70 or 71 will probably be perfect harvest time! Thank you for checking in on my grow diary! Until next week! Happy growing and Happy Living! -Starfish

I had to top Cantaloupe haze and White widow as they were too close to the lights and I didn't want to loose any ppfd on my lowers. My GSC seems perfect for not topping. next time I would top those strains at least once. I have been flushing the CH and getting run off around 1200ppm which seems like the max she can take the others like it stronger so I have been flushing them every 2-3 days. CH is tough to keep happy but will continue to monitor. All plants are in week 4 of flower 12/12 from seed.

Sept 24th - carried out some LST on the (d)P this morning. Looking pretty darn healthy. Bigger than Natural Mystic and a week behind. This plant really established itself last week - possible 1/2 volume feed tonight 2.75L h2o/molasses ***Oct 8 is Lights-out. Plants go into the dark for 36 hours*** (northern lights finish is going to take toooo long, enough. Into the 2’ tent. small photoperiod GMG to take its place) 25th a.m. - fed half volume h2o/molasses - this plant has opened up and is responding to something -applied some fresh LST anchors, go 26th - carried out a good LST session to finish yesterdays organizing. Looking real sharp! 27th - plant looks ready for a big feed tonight, if the soil allows; 6.5L - with a flowering deadline approaching (Oct 8 or b4) its great that I’m able to get some bigger nutrient volumes into the mix. Working my way towards one 2 gallon feed before lites-out if everything lines-up. - photo uploaded of repair site from first topping. (Uploaded discovery photo as well) Sept 29th a.m. - waited till the Pot was actually lighter (extra 2 days) & fed (d)P 6.5L h2o / nutes - little clean-up on the LST, she is sharp looking and getting round - seeing the pot actually lighter confirms we are not drowning the plant and confirms we are working near the dry side. - 15 gallon pot stays right where it was, and looks like its gonna NEED THE SPACE 30th - last day week 6 - sister plants have indicated a build-up of Salts (n things) is happening in the Soil and I will be flushing the plant tonight as a bit of preventative Maintenance, ahead of any build-up issues going into Flower. - she looks strong and ready. Lites-out is a week away - Foliar misting has been reduced to ~ Twice a week - Flush and some Molasses are going to set this one in motion

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 21Β°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 threadβ€”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. 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 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 P.S- I must extend my sincerest apologies for the missing video reports.

But she’s showing me something else, and I’m not here to fight her β€” just guide her. Now after stretch, I’m keeping side shoots only if they: Fill real canopy gaps Don’t crowd neighboring tops (minimum 15cm spacing) Aren’t growing into walls or toward the next plant Anything too close, too low, or heading into shade gets removed. No point forcing it. Looks like I’ll finish with 14–16 solid tops, depending on how she settles. I’m just trying to give each one enough light and space to stack properly. No overcrowding, no larf β€” just letting her do her thing with a bit of structure. Increased Tri Part Micro to 50ml as well. 28.06.25 VW11 one week since I flipped to 12/12 and she is stretching nicely, a bit shy in showing pistils compared to the Fantasy Feast regulars I have in the same tent. 29.06.25 VW11 increased GreenBuzzBloom 30β†’ 60ml 06.07.25 FW1 TriPart Micro: 50β†’ 30ml TriPart Bloom: 0 β†’ 20ml Home-made FFJ/FPJ (Watermelon + Pumpkin): 10 β†’ 30ml 12.07.25 FW1 GreenBuzzBloom 60 β†’40ml, TriPart Bloom: 20 β†’ 60ml, fpj 30β†’60ml 19.07.25 FW3 Got some bleached tops, been out and about at job interviews and didn't notice a last minute stretch spurt 😭, should recover fine though plenty of time left 😁 22.07.25 FW3 TriPartMicro 30β†’20ml , TriPartBloom 60β†’80ml , GreenBuzzBloom 40β†’50ml 24.07.25 FW3 Cal-Mag 60β†’40ml πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ± 🌿 Day to day tasks & actions 🌿 πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ± 19.07.25 FW2 – Fed 5l of #1 β†’ 2l runoff 20.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 β†’ 2l runoff 21.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 β†’ 1.5l runoff 22.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 β†’ 1.5l runoff 23.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 β†’ 1.5l runoff 24.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 β†’ 1.5l runoff 25.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 β†’ 1.5l runoff 26.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 50% strengthβ†’ 1.5l runoff (*RUNOFF reused for tomato plants) πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆ πŸ’§ Nutrients in 30L #1 πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆ πŸ’§ TriPart Micro: 10 β†’ 15 β†’ 20 β†’ 30 β†’ 40 β†’ 50ml β†’ 30 β†’ 20ml (0.67ml/L) 🍢 TriPart Grow: 0ml (0.00ml/L) πŸ’§ TriPart Bloom: 0 β†’ 20 β†’ 60 β†’ 80ml (2.67ml/L) 🍢 GreenBuzz Bloom: 10 β†’ 15 β†’ 20 β†’ 30 β†’ 60 β†’ 40 β†’ 50ml (1.67ml/L) πŸ’§ Cal-Mag: 60β†’40ml (1.33ml/L) 🍢 Home-made FFJ/FPJ (new batch): 10 β†’ 30 β†’ 60ml (2.00ml/L) πŸ’§ pH Down: Citric acid (buxXtrade) πŸ“¦ TOTAL: 250ml per 30L πŸ”¬ 8.33ml/L πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆ βš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈ βœ‚οΈ Tools & equipment βœ‚οΈ βš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈ βœ‚οΈ 2Γ— MarsHydro SP3000 βš™οΈ MarsHydro 150mm ACF Ventilator βœ‚οΈ Trotec dehumidifier (big unit) βš™οΈ Mini no-name dehumidifier βœ‚οΈ Kebab skewers (LST – stainless) βš™οΈ Wire + roast skewers (LST assist) βœ‚οΈ Scissors (HST) βš™οΈ Vacuum (for spills & cleanup) βœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈ --- 🍏πŸͺ🌬️🍬🍏πŸͺ🌬️🍬🍏πŸͺ🌬️🍬 Apple Fritter (Kannabia Seeds) 🍏πŸͺ🌬️🍬🍏πŸͺ🌬️🍬🍏πŸͺ🌬️🍬 Species: 50% Indica / 50% Sativa Genetics: Sour Apple Γ— Animal Cookies THC: Up to 25% Effect: Euphoric, relaxing, creative Flavor: Sweet, fruity, pastry notes Flowering: 56–63 days Resistance: High Indoor yield: 450–500g/mΒ² Outdoor yield: 600g/plant Structure: Strong, bushy, dense buds

Everything must go!!! Day 66 can’t imagine the cheese, the gift, and straw to last much longer. Trellis was removed and you can really tell how heavy some colas are damn near uproots some of plants without the support. I needed to save my trellis ;). Anyways Skittlez in dark period ready to be chopped, tropical fuel is on day 3 of drying and looks to be retaining that β€œfuel” smell ( no woody buds here!) made some awesome canna butter from the trim of white widow. Happy growing!

Tiene unos cogollos bien duros y compactos,son muy pegajosos y los pistilos son de un naranja radioactivo,tiene un aroma muy rico como terroso y mentolado
