Week 10 / 70 Days: Week has been calm, I am mostly trying to adjust some hardware (lights) for this and the next run. Climate stable, I am letting some cooler drifts in here and there. - Mango's light burn kept creeping, my interventions were too soft. She is the reason I am so busy working on the setup, trying to diffuse and scatter, adjust intensities. She is bulking up nicely, although I can tell she got interrupted and is rushing to finish up. Her trichomes do tell the story, about 10% amber is permanently imprinted on top buds. Farther down towards the green canopy, there is plenty of cloudy and clear trichome heads. Will post shots next week! - Headbanger is doing great and aging well. She looks to be first in line and harvest is approaching. Her top buds still smell like slightly roasted peanuts, which I am craving like crazy. But that minty, earthy caliber hidden deep inside keeps me from "exploring" more 😆 - Sour Jealousy is the pinnacle plant of this run. I am very proud to see her as the healthiest plant that I ever had the honor of growing. Her predictable schedule is relaxed, always looking ready to go much longer, should the season have it in the cards. From my point of view, her buds now have their top bracts swollen to near max, pistil browning is slow and steady. As I need a daytime profile, she is looking prime to harvest earlier than I had anticipated. I will check all trichomes soon. This has been the first "press play and go" week, save for some troubleshooting and climate management. But with these plants in my heart, the atmosphere in the tent is changing considerably every day, as they finish up their season. What has always been a relaxing and available zone to enter is becoming a mental clip-show, trying to imprint last impressions, smells, haptic feelings and rustling in the wind. Harvest is approaching, and no matter how well the plants grew - very soon they will be faded memories and a couple of photos on a drive. I have sticky hands today that I didn't have on Day 70. 👻

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.

Had a few issues this week mostly with ph runoff, was very high at 8.5 (had been on the rise for a little while given that I have been time poor and a lack of energy this was put on the I’ll do it tomorrow list). Picked up some drip clean and reset the coco. Now getting runoff at 6.4 and improving. The girls have been growing this week some more than others but overall I’m pretty happy with the progress shortest being 36cm tallest 67cm with most averaging 53-55cm. Picked up 2 more fans to keep the air moving and will be hopefully doing some restructuring of the tent to help reduce this humidity and potentially relocating 4 of the girls into the 1.5x1.5 tent to give them all some extra room Other than that just maintaining the light into the plants and trimming where required all be it in stages when time allows Potentially too late in this grow but have moved over to filtered water to remove chlorine, tds remains at 87 for tap water and filtered water but filtered there is 0 chlorine Have dialled up the lights from 45%/45%0% to 45% veg 60% bloom 0% uv for another 6 days if all is looking good will ramp to 60% veg 80% bloom for week 10 and checking for light stress. Have an overlap of 20cm in the hellion vs3 lights which is going to give the centre a bit of punishment. Also looking into putting some co2 grow bags into the tent so the plants can handle the extra light. After 12 hours of increased light there does not appear to be any light stress yet Wednesday 28-Jan - pre flowers have appeared! 1 1/2 weeks into flip 7/8 plants have pistils 1 more to go and I can worry less that there’s a rooster amongst the hens hiding amongst the forest. Have obtained a 20L/day dehumidifier currently stable lights off 25’c 63% lights on 28’c 63% which is a massive improvement from the crazy 80-90%rh we did have. Plants have responded extremely well with their new climate and are well into their stretch (moreso since they have been able to breathe) day 21 defoliation is going to be a big job

Day 31 - omg more calcium deficiency sings, unbelievable!!! The liquid calcium I’ve bought suggests 5ml/L per week, this is the second time this week I’m supplementing it. I did major bending this morning, almost everything jumped on square, it took me almost two hours. I broke two small shootings in the process, RIP Day 33 Reservoir refill, in 20L: Megacrop A 9g Megacrop B 11g Epsom 4g Gypsum 6g Sulfuric acid 6,5ml

Week 13 for outdoor Black Lebanon by SSSC She's gaining some much thickness to her. Had to top maybe 10 branches that were getting taller than the rest so just topped to slow them down. But she's looking beautiful she's above 110cm tall and 2meters wide. Being fed 10L of water every morning. 😎

The only thing I did was defoliation and fed her the power bloom, all purpose, and worm castings. Top dressed nutrients and fertilizer. I made the Recharge Tea once a week and added molasses in between the tea.

Última semana usando pk y engorde en los riegos. Pasamos a lavar las raíces regando solamente con agua. Last week using PK and fattening in the irrigation. We moved on to flushing the roots by watering with only water.

Day 35 chugging along. Adding 2 gallons of water to reservoir mid week with 1 teaspoon coconut powder per gallon. Top watering weekly with one gallon water mixed with 1 teaspoon build a bloom, 1/2 teaspoon recharge, 2 oz peach ferment.
