We're finally back home, and the Balcony Jungle has definitely grown while we were away. 😅🌿 The first Appalachian Kush is now starting to form its flowers, so it looks like flowering is officially underway. The plants have also reached a size where their large amount of foliage acts almost like a sail in the wind. With the strong and frequent winds we get up here, the little 11 L pots have started getting blown over. For now, I've secured the pots with some Paracord as a simple temporary solution. 💨😅 I also removed some foliage and a few of the lower branches, mainly to make watering and working around the plants a little easier. The Appalachian Kush plants are currently the biggest of the bunch, but there isn't a huge difference in size between the strains. Even the Green Poison, which fell behind earlier in the grow, has managed to catch up quite nicely. 🌱💚 The Golosa is still showing its unusual growth pattern as well. Its thick but flat main stem has now split at the top, forming two main tops instead of one. 👀🌱 It's definitely starting to look like a proper Balcony Jungle now. ☀️🌿 The tomatoes have been keeping us busy as well. We've already been harvesting them gradually for quite some time and have enjoyed several kilos of homegrown tomatoes so far. 🍅😋 They are honestly incredibly delicious, and the yellow variety has become our clear favourite. Definitely one of the highlights of this year's Balcony Jungle. ☀️🍅🌱

Plants are doing great, but very annoying slow fase of preflower. That's why I do mostly auto. Let's c maybe this harvest will change my mind. Start using spirulina powder as natural PGR.

Espero que hayáis pasado buena semana! Las plantas sí, como se ven, siguen felices. Antes de entrar en floración, le realicé una defoliación, que se recuperaron genial. No mucho más que contar, han estirado un poco, que lo seguirán haciendo durante dos semanas más. Un saludo y que paséis una buena semana, buenos humos!🙌

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.

This is the last week of edge then it's time to flip

Dec 9: They are looking pretty good as far as I can tell, having trouble debating to cut off some fan leaves or not, this is my first ever grow and I don’t want to stress it out any more than it has. The way I trained the plant is definitely suboptimal, next time I will plant the seed off to the side a bit to have room to bend. Also should I just continue with tucking almost everyday or cut the troublesome leaves covering bud sites? And the bottom node, should I skip the chutes? Is it okay to cut things off at this stage of its life? They are definitely still in preflower as there are only presence of the “V” hairs at each budsite, and smell is very weak.

The girl is in good company 😉

I'm happy with the progress they have made, all have responded well to defoliation and LST. I'll be adding a few more light nutrients at some point this week. The gorilla zkittles is shorter than the rest but looks very sturdy and has plenty of bud showing already, I think this is because it started flowering maybe 7days before the rest and in them 7days the rest shot up rapidly! I'll update daily and try get some nice videos with lights out.

Had to chop a few tops after 90s did not slow them down. Can't really bend em either they snap because of silica.. Snapped about 6, I was able to bend15 w/90s and cut 7 tops... Right in the lights. :/ Should still get plenty to smoke until next run.

Day 92. Trim day. Wet trim chosen. Result could be better, but 100 will be reached I guess for sure ;))) Day 101. My friend has new record ! Not bad for screw up run ;))))) Happy Growing !!!

New strain never Ive never grown before

test testing

Day 77. Maybe a bit early, but no space and one Smoothie went for a date with bud rot ;))) didn't want to loose that nice top. Very frosty, nice gassy smell surrounded by fruits. Day 82. Second girl is down. Both small as you see, but with few branches will produce seed packaging cover type plant. Maybe second got some purple fade ... First was very nice by structure. Day 85. First went to jar. How lovely it sparkles and smells !!! Solid strain, even being so small by structure. Day 89. Second is in jars too ! Happy Growing !!!

first day of the eighth week I think we are a bit late with the timing of fast buds but the scent is spectacular and the trichomes are more and more we hope that the flowers will also be dense and tasty

13/1 13 days in flower stage they began stretching alot , and in this stage i noticed the bad news... I noticed some male nanners (bananas) tried to cut them and shut the fans off but i knew that i gonna have hermies becuse it is not the first time, a while ago i also tried to grow seeds from the same company "greenspoint seeds" and it also hermed, the plants didnt go through big stress i gave them all the best environment plus CO2. i have 12 years experience in growing so it 99% not too much stress. its just poor breeder.
