Note: Moisture and Temp readings are done in the mornings. Lights are on an 18/6 schedule on most days. Unless stated otherwise. 📏: AK1: 22 in (55.88 cm), AK2: 26 in (66.04 cm), North: 17 in (43.18 cm) Quick Notes: At the beginning of the week I was tending to the AKs deficiencies, all plants received a lot of extra nutrients this week. I think it was related to being underfed or underwater. Midway through the week, they started to recover and grow taller. North is on the verge of flowering. I also lollipopped all plants to try and clear the lower region so it's easy to water and so the plants can focus growth on the important parts. Overall the AKs have been drinking up a storm (watering almost every day at this point), I'm trying to keep an eye out for overfeeding. I'm feeding every watering for now until I see issues pop up, then I'll slow down. Next week may be the week I start flower (guessing since these are autos). Day 42 (Jul 8) - Plants look the same as yesterday pretty much, AK1 & AK2 are doing less of the 'preparation droop'. The major yellow leaves are starting to crust off and it seems like the mid/upper leaves are not getting paler / translucent. Watering with a lot of Nutrients this morning. 💧: Tap: x pH (Forgot to measure tap) Adjusted with Concentrated Lemon Juice AK1: 1 liter (5.7 pH, 2.5 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 1ml FloraBloom, 1.5 ml CalMag) AK2: 1 liter (6.1 pH, 2.5 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 1ml FloraBloom, 1.5 ml CalMag) North: 1 liter (5.6 pH, 2 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 1 ml FloraBloom, 1.5 ml CalMag) 💦: 41% (36-58) - 🌡️: 28C (25-34) Day 43 - Lights out overnight, starting 7 hrs from 130am. Lights on, AL1 & AK2 perky, surprised AK2 is perky. The yellowing seems to have slowed on both plants. AK2 developed salty spots on random leaves. *AK2 grew 4 inches in 2 days. 💦: 52% (36-65) - 🌡️: 28C (23-31) Day 44 - Lights 24 hours. Watering in the morning, pots are light and the soil is pretty dry. Giving a little less Nitrogen / Micro and more Bloom to North since she's clearly showing some white pistols (and it doesn't seem to be suffering from the same things as the AK's). 💧: Tap: 8.15 pH Adjusted with pH Down AK1: 1.5 liter (6.1 pH, 2.5 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 1.5 ml FloraBloom, 1.5 ml CalMag, 1.5 ml Voodoo Juice) AK2: 1.5 liter (5.8 pH, 2 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 1.5 ml FloraBloom, 1.5 ml CalMag, 1.5 ml Voodoo Juice) North: 1.5 liter (6 pH, 1.5 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 2 ml FloraBloom, 1.5 ml CalMag, 1.5 ml Voodoo Juice) 💦: 41% (35-65) - 🌡️: 31C (23-31) Day 45 - Soil pretty dry, a little damp ¾ inch below surface. Got 3-in-1 pH / Light / Moisture reader in mail, pH is reading pretty alkaline soil (need to investigate, not sure if accurate). 💧: Tap: 7.10 pH Adjusted with pH Down AK1: 1.5 liter (7? pH [forgot to record the exact amount], 2 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 1.5 ml FloraBloom, 1.5 ml CalMag) AK2: 1.5 liter (6.15 pH, 2 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 1.5 ml FloraBloom, 1.5 ml CalMag) North: 1.5 liter (6.15 pH, 1.5 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 2 ml FloraBloom, 2 ml CalMag) 💦: x% (34-37) - 🌡️: xC (28-30) Day 46 - Lights off overnight (9 hrs), with exhaust fan on so watered pots don't humidity tent. Plants look relatively fine, North's bud sites are developing (think I see 2 new sites). Placed Oscillating fan in tent for more circulation, average temps decreased overall. 💦: 62% (34-34) - 🌡️: 24C (23-31) Day 47 - Lights off overnight (~9 hrs). Spent some time Lolipopping the plants, then watered. *North soil wasn't completely dry yet. 💧: Tap: 7.30 pH Adjusted with pH Down AK1: 1.5 liter (5.9 pH, 2 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 1.5 ml FloraBloom, 2 ml CalMag, 1.5 ml Voodoo Juice) 875 PPM AK2: 1.5 liter (5.75 pH, 2 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 1.5 ml FloraBloom, 2 ml CalMag, 1.5 ml Voodoo Juice) 1050 PPM North: 1.5 liter (6? pH, 1 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 2 ml FloraBloom, 2 ml CalMag, 2 ml Voodoo Juice) 💦: 54% (40-64) - 🌡️: 27C (23-29) Day 48 (Jul 14) - Lights dimmed overnight. Not watering North since the soil is still moister than the AKs. AK soils are not completely dry. All plants are beginning to flower, especially North so I'm lowering FloraMicro for now to see the response and upping FloraBloom. 💧: Tap: 7.60 pH Not adjusted AK1: 1 liter (6.2 pH, 1.5 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 2 ml FloraBloom, 2 ml CalMag, 1.5 ml Voodoo Juice) ~1200 PPM AK2: 1 liter (6.2 pH, 1.5 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 2 ml FloraBloom, 2 ml CalMag, 1.5 ml Voodoo Juice) 💦: 72% (41-74) - 🌡️: 25C (24-30)

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.

crap.... despite the fact that she was growing quite slowly, I still managed to break her :( 21 days, I don't know if it's worth leaving what's left. She's auto and I'm sure she'll have a baby at the end of the week

The smaller Potter or extra Gorilla Glue from AMS is doing okay. Still battling a magnesium deficiency I have not stop. This time was from ph dropping. I was unable to care for them for a few days right. They got too dry, and salts cause ph to fall. I tend to feed heavy, but stay well irrigated. She is still growing decent with the Spider Farmer G3000 light. She should be back on track now again. Plus she is now in a bigger Potter. Still small, but bigger. Hopefully she can keep up some with the other Gorilla Glue in there in size enough to not get beat out in light. Thinking ahead for flowering. Everything looks good to go now.

Took a while to get there but OMG little note quick! So I started her in a 1 litre pot and stuck her on top of a 1.5L Pepsi bottle with the top chopped off! And she yielded heavily for that amount of soil a whopping! 224.63 wet weight so can’t wait to see what she holds dry because them buds were like boulders! So dense! I will be back to document her dry weight and then a couple of weeks later with the update on the smoke report! But I know it’s going to be so loud! She has deep pungent aromas like gassy and sweet! She’s going to be a powerhouse! She was a little over as today a banana developed but that just tells me “well done” timing just right! She’s a little long for my taste of auto but I do suggest anyone grow her she’s amazing! In the end!

What a week! the weather has not been very gracious to us. It has been pretty hot all day and humid at night. The majority of the day has the perfect setting but when the sun is at its peak it definitely puts a tool on the girlies. :'( We got a bigger fan to circulate air more but well have to see how that goes... Hoping for rain and some extra clouds soon!

420 Fastbuds FBT2301 Week 5 These two girls are starting to transition into flower very nice. Don't mind the dropping in the leafs my lights just came on. Over all haven't done really much besides another defoliation and lollipoped them taking off the lower 3 nodes. Should allow them plenty of light through flower and air to prevent moisture build up at pot level. All in all Happy Growing

2/17: I spent a little time rearranging today. I bought some 32" x 14" plastic ventilated storage shelves and cut the legs down on two of them so I have some different-height platforms for the shorties in the garden. I should also be able to easily flush 6 plants in 5 gallon pots, or 9 plants in 3 gallon pots at a time now, that's a win!👈 2/18: I debated whether to feed or not, and settled on watering them with about 1/2 gallon each. including bembe, cal-mag, signal, humic acid, and a little beastie bloomz. The new dehumidifier is pulling about a gallon and a half per day from the air, so I should be able to feed them in a coupe of days. I've reached the ceiling again with my lights. The Soooperrunt has caught up to the tallest plant in the garden. She's very narrow compared to the rest, but she'll produce 100% more than I ever imagined, so that's a win! These three plants remain very dark green in color compared to all the other varieties. 2/19: Rainy day outside, so I'm pulling in 99% humidity, plus the pots are still petty saturated, but the new dehumidifier is keeping up. RH is holding at about 45% today.👍 2/20: Day 31 of flower...a semi-solution occurred to me that allowed me to raise the lights another 3-4 inches! Now I'm truly maxxed out... 2 of them have been slow to flower did a 300% stretch, but the 3rd is budding up nicely and only did a 200% stretch. Soooperrunt has stretched 30" from when I started flowering her...yikes! I really needed everybody to finish in the same week so I could get my Spring autos going...😶 I'm still hoping that they will get their groove-on and finish by the EHD(3/11), but it's not looking possible at this point... They're likely to be good producers, so I'm not bitching too loudly.. I took photos and videos of all the plants today since I had to empty the closet and it wasn't a feeding day. 2/21: I fed them today with about 3/4 gallon each including beastie bloomz, tiger bloom, big bloom, signal, bembe, and cal-mag...no grow big this time. 2/22: The darkest green plants in the garden. Wonderful structure, stacking up really well. Their top leaves really reach for the sun. My current favorites.👍 2/23: I ordered some Terpinator because I'm not so sure about Signal's efficacy at this point....I'm usually dealing with odors more by now..😕 That's it for week 9-

The first week of flower!!! Bad news: DS turned out to be a male, so I trashed it last night. Good week overall, temps and RH have been excellent. All and all things look well, and I'm excited for the weeks to come. Just fed them plain water this week.
