August 23: Just finishing up about 36 hours of darkness, then I'm going to wash the buds, then hang them. Harvesting a bit early due to time constraints but it looks good. The smell is very dank, not a tropical skittles smell, much more like wood glue as I've seen mentioned in other reviews, although I'm starting to occasionally catch a sweeter tropical scent as well. I wanted to leave it a little longer. There were still a lot of white hairs when I started the dark period, but a lot of them seem to have developed into swollen calyxes so I'm pretty happy. I was a little worried they were making seed pods after last time, but I broke one open and all that was inside was red hairs. I'm going to keep an eye on the RH while they're drying and get them into jars and try to wait as long as possible before I start sampling. I can tell this is one of those batches that's going to get better and better if left alone for a couple months. Just did the wash, did 1.25 cups of 34% food grade H202 and a squeezed lemon in a 5 gal bucket. Another bucket of just water to rinse. Then I had a fan on it while hanging in the sunlight from a skylight in the bathroom for 30 min, then put the fan further back and on oscillate, then turned it down an hour later. Left it in there for a few hours, then hung it in the grow tent with everything removed except an oscillating fan, pointed away from the buds. I have the whole plant hanging in the middle of the tent and the tent is holding at 60% rh. Next run I'm going to do 2 buckets and only top once. I might leave them a bit longer in veg too to maximize the height in my grow space, and I'll get a proper 500w bulb instead of continuing to run 1000w bulbs at 50% to lower the heat a bit. The weather will be cooler and I'll only run one air stone in each bucket which should help with res temp. I'll probably foil-wrap the buckets again as well. I should be able to get another run done by the end of the year. I have a White Widow fem seed I've been waiting to use but I'm not sure what else I want to grow yet. Maybe Granddaddy Purp. I'll take some micro pics of the trichomes this week and start curing, and I'll post a proper review in a couple weeks. Happy growing everyone! August 24: I took it out of the tent to inspect. No mold or mildew. The middle of some buds are still pretty wet. I'll keep an eye on it. Wet weight on the stem is 158 grams/ 5.5oz. I harvested a couple branches last week and hung them up. I just ground up one of the buds, left it overnight and vaped some today. There was a bit of Chemdawg Tangerine in the grinder already but overall I got a lot of thick vapour, instant effects, and a really great tropical taste. I busted out the microscope camera and I realized I had a couple buds that fell off before I washed the plant in the H202, and a couple buds that came off in the washing process. It doesn't look like washing the buds took off any of the trichomes. I do seem to find less debris in the buds, not that there was much there before. The trichs look great. Just a light toasting of amber. The washed bud actually seems more dry than the unwashed bud. August 25: there's a real chlorophyll smell coming from the drying room today, it was much terpier yesterday. Leaves are getting crunchy, stems are still fully bendy. I ended up taking it down in the evening. The drying room rh dropped from 60% to 55% and the buds were starting to look too dry based on my last grow. I put it all in a paper bag for the night and I'll put it in jars tomorrow morning. Broken down most of the way it came out to 48-49 grams. From the bud structure, I definitely feel like it would have benefitted from more grow time if I didn't have to travel. More to come. August 26 - the edges of the buds are getting really crispy and the buds are getting tighter. I checked the paper bag earlier and it was 65-70%. I got the impression it was time to put it into jars. I'll keep the lids off for a bit.

03.05.21 hab heute morgen die Pflanzen alle einmal durch gespült mit klarem Wasser ohne irgendwas natürlich Ph eingestellt auf 6,5 hoffe das das mein Problem behebt mal sehen wie sich die Ladys die Woche so schlagen. Werde dann wenn alles gut läuft mit halber dosis green sensation weiter fahren sowie ca halber dosis sugar royal, blüte dünger fällt erstmal weg bis aufs erste...... 04.05.21 heut stand nix an ausser beobachten der Ladys Töpfe sind noch gut feucht vom spülen hab fast 65% rh im Zelt In der Nacht ist nicht so toll aber muss ich durch Wetter ist auch beschissen was dem ganzen auch noch zu steuert zum kotzen...... 05.05.21 die Pflanze scheinen sich einigermaßen von der überdüngung zu erholen, ich hab das gefühl das die blüte weiter an schwillt auf der linken Seite. Gelato # 1,2 und 3 sind jetzt auch seid gestern dabei ihre stigmas in caramel zu verwandeln. Kann es kaum noch erwarten zu spülen und dann in den Endspurt zu kommen aber bis dahin sind noch ein paar Wochen..... 06.05.21 heute stand mal wieder nix an ausser mich an meinem Ergebnis bis jetzt zu erfreuen hab mir auch heute schon mal Gedanken für die nächste Runde gemacht werde wohl beim nächsten Grow mal nur mainlaining machen ohne netzt ach ja und es wird auf den Wunsch meiner Frau 4x purps og die Kaffee caramel lady.... 07.05.21 heute stand mal Die erste terp Kontrolle bei gelato 41 #2 an und siehe da es sind schon einige milchig dazwischen aber noch nix bernstein würde schätzen das ca 60% milchig sind und 40% noch durchsichtig also noch zeit bis zur Spülung hab mir heute gedacht ich zeige mal die Höhe der buds im Durchschnitt linke Seite ca 20 cm rechte Seite ca 10 cm der Geruch der Ladys ist eigendlich garnicht so typisch stechen nach Cannabis solange ich die Ladys nicht bewege sprich gegen die röhre vom Netz komme das bisschen wackeln am netzt lässt sie sofort stinken wie ein stinktier als würde sie versuchen mich zu vertreiben oder meine Aufmerksamkeit auf sich ziehen...... 08.05.21 heute stand auch wieder mal nur das beobachten und begutachten der buds an ich kontrolliere fast täglich auf schimmel und dieser Geruch ist einfach traumhaft heute hat er mich dazu verleitet zum Eis laden zu gehen und mir erstmal Haus gemachtes Eis zu kaufen ich werd noch fett wegen der Sorte dieser Duft macht hungrig auf süßes....... 09.05.21 endlich wieder eine Woche rum kann es kaum noch erwarten zur Spülung zu kommen dann kann ich endlich einen genauen Zeitpunkt für den cut festlegen und mich neu sortieren für die nächste Runde gibt so eine schöne Aussage die ich in meinem grow Buch gelesen habe "kiffen macht nicht süchtig, growen aber schon" ich persönlich empfinde es ganau so. Ich bin schon richtig Heiss darauf neu zu beginnen, während meine Frau einfach nur Heiss aufs Endprodukt ist.....

I harvested 2 weeks after the last update. The videos are from a month later after the buds were cured.

What can I say this thunder fuck is so smooth to smoke, I just can't stop growing it! I am in uncharted waters here because I've gone full organic no till. This will be my first time using grassroots living soil pots and first time using this brand new soil mix. Also to help with costs I decided to make a 5 gal tea reactor, to grow out the EM1 which will save me about 75% on all microbe products, and also save on feralization when used in conjunction with foliar sprays. Wish me luck!

25.07 Watering with 200 - 400 - 400 - 400 Used only 4ml/L TOP-Max (honestly I forgot about the fact, that I have to use the BioBizz Products only once in a week and I already added 4ml before I realized it…) 26.07 my neighbor complained about the smell one store under my balcony (told me he can smell it on the street 50 meters behind my balcony) 28.07 watering 400 - 400

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 11 🥒 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A 🌸 When The Best Intervention Is No Intervention Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 And honestly... I think this might be one of my favourite stages of the whole project. Not because we're doing more. Quite the opposite. Because we're finally at the point where we don't need to. 😂 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 Pheno A is looking absolutely beautiful. The structure is established. The canopy is open. The second SCROG is doing its job. The irrigation is running beautifully. The drainage system is working flawlessly. The nutrition is consistent. The under-canopy lighting is now part of the equation. And the flowers? Oh my God... The frost levels across this tent are something else. 🌸❄️ So this week isn't about another big intervention. It's about observation. It's about appreciating what we've built. And most importantly... it's about letting this beautiful girl do what she knows how to do. Grow. Flower. And shine. 💙🥒🌸 🌸 WEEK 11 – THE GIRL IS JUST DOING HER THING Pickle Lemon Haze F1 Pheno A is still sitting at approximately 145 cm. The stretch has settled. The structure is established. And now we're watching the flowers develop across the entire plant. One of the things that continues to impress me is just how even everything looks. The flowering sites are developing remarkably consistently. The canopy is extremely even. The bud formation is happening at very similar stages throughout the plant. And the frost... well... the frost is absolutely beautiful. 😂❄️🌸 This is one of those moments where you walk into the tent and think: "Okay... I really like what I'm seeing." And honestly, that's exactly where I want to be at this stage. The major work has already been done. Now the plant is showing us the result. 💡 THE UNDER-CANOPY LIGHTING GETS SERIOUS Last week we introduced the first LumiFlora under-canopy light into the project. This week, we decided to bring a second one into the game. And looking at the size and density of this room... it just made sense. The main LEDs continue providing the primary light from above. But these plants have developed a very substantial structure. There are flowering sites throughout the middle and lower portions of the canopy that naturally receive less direct light from the fixtures above. So instead of continuing to remove more foliage just to chase light penetration... we're bringing supplemental light to the lower canopy. And I really like what we've created. But we didn't simply place the two bars side by side. That would have been too easy. 😂 Instead, we decided to play a little. The LumiFlora bars are approximately 1.20 metres long, with the central section around one metre, and because of that length we were able to arrange them in an X-cross configuration underneath the canopy. From corner to corner. And honestly? It looks fantastic. 😂💡🌱 It's functional... but it also looks really cool. The two bars cross through the lower portion of the tent, creating a much more interesting distribution of supplemental light underneath the plants. The idea remains simple: Don't replace the overhead lighting. Complement it. Give the lower canopy another source of usable light. And then... watch what happens. 🌿 TWO LIGHTS. ONE EXPERIMENT. This is one of the parts of Project Blue Tent that I really enjoy. We're not simply installing equipment because it looks impressive. We're introducing something because we have a reason for it. The plants have become tall. The canopy has become substantial. The lower portions naturally receive less direct light. So instead of fighting the structure... we adapt the environment around it. That's cultivation. Observe. Adapt. Measure. And then observe again. And now that the second under-canopy light is installed... I'm extremely curious to see what the lower flowering sites do with that additional light over the coming weeks. That's the experiment. And Pheno A gets to be part of it. 🕸️ THE SCROG IS DOING EXACTLY WHAT WE WANT The SCROG structure is also looking fantastic. The first net helped us build and distribute the canopy. The second SCROG is now providing additional support as the flowering branches continue developing. And at this point? We're not really touching it. That's intentional. The structure has been created. The branches are where we want them. The flowering sites are developing. And the support is there. Now we let the plant use it. This is another one of those moments where doing less can actually be doing more. We don't need to constantly move branches. We don't need to keep pulling everything around. We don't need to keep opening something we've already opened. The architecture is there. Let her work. ✂️ DEFOlIATION – NOW WE WATCH THE RECOVERY The major defoliation from the previous weeks has also become part of the story now. When we performed that work, the difference was dramatic. The plants went from extremely dense to much more open. And now we're seeing the result. The flowering sites are much easier to see. Air movement through the plant is much better. The branches are easier to follow. And the plant has had time to recover and redirect her energy toward continued flowering. This is exactly why I don't believe in constantly interfering with a plant. There is a time to train. There is a time to defoliate. There is a time to support. And there is a time to stop touching things. We're at that last one now. 😂 The plant doesn't need us to keep proving that we have scissors. She needs stability. So stability is what she gets. 🌬️ AIRFLOW – TWO LEVELS, ONE HEALTHY CANOPY The airflow setup is also continuing exactly as planned. We have movement through the upper portion of the canopy and additional circulation underneath. With the under-canopy lighting now running through the lower structure, maintaining good air movement down there becomes even more important. The goal isn't to create a hurricane. 😂 It's about avoiding stagnant pockets and keeping air moving through the entire plant structure. The canopy has opened beautifully. The flowers are developing. The lower lighting is now active. And the air is moving. That's exactly what I want to see. 💧 IRRIGATION & DRAINAGE – ZERO COMPLAINTS And I have to give some love to the irrigation and drainage system this week. Because honestly... there is nothing to complain about. 😂 The irrigation is working beautifully. The plants are drinking well. The water distribution is consistent. The drainage system is working absolutely spotless. No drama. No complaints. Just doing its job. And that's exactly what good equipment should do. It should quietly do its job while we concentrate on the plants. The girls are drinking. They're developing. And the system is keeping up with them perfectly. I'm extremely happy with how this part of the project is performing. ⚗️ NUTRITION – SAME RECIPE, DIFFERENT EC Interestingly, despite not changing the reservoir recipe, this week's EC came out slightly lower. And honestly... I don't have a definitive explanation for it. 😂 The recipe itself hasn't changed. We're still running: PLAGRON Hydro A — 2.2 ml/L PLAGRON Hydro B — 2.2 ml/L PLAGRON Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L PLAGRON Power Buds — 1 ml/L pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L pH Min — 0.03 ml/L pH adjusted as required Yet the measured EC came out around 2.24 mS/cm instead of the approximately 2.49 mS/cm we saw previously. My guess? Possibly the rainwater source was simply a little softer this time. But I'm not going to pretend I know exactly why. Sometimes the numbers simply move. 😂 And that's another reason I like documenting everything. We don't have to invent an explanation every time something changes. We record it. We observe the plants. And we continue watching. The important thing is that Pheno A looks happy. She's drinking. She's flowering. She's building. And visually... she's absolutely loving life. ❄️ THE FROST LEVELS ARE INSANE Now let's talk about the obvious. The frost. 😂❄️ Seriously... look at these flowers. The amount of visible trichome development across the tent is absolutely beautiful. And Pheno A is certainly not being shy about showing hers. The flowers are developing with a heavy, frosty appearance, and the sugar leaves are absolutely covered. This is one of those stages where photography becomes dangerous. Because every time I take a close-up... I end up staring at it for five minutes. 😂📸 The flower formation is progressing beautifully. The structure is becoming more defined. And the frost levels are getting better and better. We're still not at the finish line. But we're getting into that really exciting part of the journey where the flowers begin looking less like early flowering sites... and more like proper flowers. And I absolutely love it. 🌿 SAME TENT. SAME CONDITIONS. REMARKABLY SIMILAR PLANTS. This is probably one of the most fascinating parts of the entire experiment. All four girls are sharing the same tent. Same reservoir. Same irrigation. Same lighting. Same environmental conditions. Same nutrition. Same cultivation approach. And when you look at them... it's honestly incredible how similar they are becoming. Very similar canopy development. Very similar flowering stages. Very similar bud formation. Very similar frost levels. And yet... each plant still has her own personality. That is what makes this project so interesting. We're not comparing four completely isolated grows. We're watching different cultivars experience essentially the same environment. And the response is fascinating. A LITTLE CULTIVAR LESSON And since we're documenting this properly, I want to take a little moment to explain something I often mention in these diaries. I like using the word: "Cultivar." You'll sometimes hear people call every plant a "genetic" or simply say "the genetics." And I understand what they mean. But technically, they're not quite the same thing. Genetics refers to the genetic makeup and inherited characteristics of an organism. A cultivar is a plant variety that has been selected and maintained through cultivation for particular characteristics. So when we're talking about these F1 plants in this project, I prefer referring to them as cultivars rather than simply calling them "genetics." And honestly... if you already knew that? Fantastic. If you didn't? Now you do. 😂🌱 There's never too much information when we're talking about cultivation. I love learning. And if something we mention here teaches somebody something new, even better. That's another reason I enjoy documenting these projects. We're growing plants... but we're also learning from them. 🌸 PHENO A – HER OWN PERSONALITY And although the four plants are looking remarkably similar right now, Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A still has her own story. She's been through the stretch. She's been through the major canopy management. She's been through the defoliation. She's been through the SCROG. She's been through the structural adjustments. And now she's simply showing us what all of that work has created. Her canopy is beautifully organized. The flowering sites are developing evenly. The frost is impressive. And the plant is drinking beautifully. She's not asking for another intervention. She's asking for time. So that's what we're giving her. 🌸 THE TOPPING AND CANOPY STRUCTURE Looking closely at Pheno A, one of the things I really enjoy is seeing how well the topping and training have opened the plant. The structure is no longer fighting itself. The branches have space. The flowering sites are exposed. And the canopy has developed into a very even structure. The work we did earlier in the project is now becoming visible in the flowering architecture. This is the part of cultivation that makes all the earlier work worthwhile. You train a plant weeks ago... and then later you stand there looking at the flowering structure and realize: "That's why we did it." 😂🌱 And Pheno A is showing that beautifully. 💙 NO UNNECESSARY INTERVENTION So what are we actually doing this week? Honestly? Not much. 😂 And that's a good thing. We're monitoring. We're checking the environment. We're watching irrigation. We're checking drainage. We're watching the flowers. We're watching the frost. We're observing the response to the under-canopy lighting. We're maintaining the reservoir. And we're letting the plant do the rest. There's a temptation in cultivation to always do something. Change something. Adjust something. Move something. Cut something. Add something. But sometimes the best decision is: Don't. If everything is working... don't fix it. If the plant is healthy... let her be healthy. If the flowers are developing... let them develop. If the irrigation is working... let it work. If the drainage is spotless... leave it alone. 😂💙 Observation is also part of cultivation. 🌡️ CURRENT BLUE TENT CONDITIONS 🌸 Flowering: Week 11 📏 Height: approximately 145 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ☀️ Day temperature: 28°C 🌙 Night temperature: 27°C 💧 Relative humidity: 63% ⚗️ pH: 6.01 ⚡ EC: approximately 2.24 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 24.9°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 24°C 💨 CO₂: approximately 666 ppm ? Pot size: 8 L 💦 Watering: approximately 1.6 L per plant / 24h 💡 Under-canopy lighting: LumiFlora 150W full-spectrum fixtures 💡 Under-canopy arrangement: X-cross configuration 🔬 SAME VARIABLES. DIFFERENT EXPRESSIONS. One of the things I'm really looking forward to over the coming weeks is seeing whether these similarities continue. Because right now... it's impressive. The plants are developing at remarkably similar stages. The canopy is extremely even. The flowers are forming beautifully. The frost levels are high. And yet, if you look closely enough, each cultivar still gives you little details that make her recognizable. That's exactly what we wanted from Project Blue Tent. A shared environment. A consistent approach. And individual plants telling their own stories. 🔭 LOOKING AHEAD – LET'S SEE WHAT THE FUTURE HAS FOR US At this point, I'm genuinely excited to see where these girls take us. We've built the structure. We've managed the canopy. We've supported the branches. We've established the airflow. We've got the irrigation and drainage working beautifully. The under-canopy lighting is now in place. The nutrition is consistent. And the flowers are developing incredibly well. Now... we wait. How much more will these flowers swell? How much further will the frost develop? How will the lower canopy respond to the supplemental lighting? How much weight will those supported branches eventually carry? And most importantly... what will Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A ultimately become? Those are questions I don't need to answer today. The plants will answer them for us. And that's the beautiful part. 💙 FINAL THOUGHTS – LET THE PLANT SPEAK Week 11. And what a beautiful week. There were no dramatic interventions. No major restructuring. No big defoliation. No desperate attempts to control the plants. Instead... we watched. We introduced a second LumiFlora under-canopy light. We arranged the two long bars in an X-cross configuration underneath the canopy. We kept the irrigation running. We kept the drainage running. We maintained the same reservoir recipe. We observed the slightly lower EC. We kept the airflow moving. And we admired the flowers. 😂💙 And those flowers deserve some attention. The bud formation is beautiful. The canopy is incredibly even. The frost levels are absolutely insane. And Pheno A is looking healthier and happier by the week. What's perhaps most impressive is how similar these plants are becoming under the same conditions. Different cultivars... same room... same environment... same reservoir... and remarkably similar results. That makes me even more curious about what we're going to see later in flowering. Because if this level of consistency continues... we could be looking at something very special. But we're not going to rush it. We're not going to force it. We're not going to keep changing things simply because we can. We've reached the stage where patience becomes the most important tool in the room. So for now... we watch. We listen. We measure. We maintain. And we let Pickle Lemon Haze F1 Pheno A do what she does best. Grow. Flower. Frost up. And shine. 💙🥒❄️🌸 The future is looking very, very interesting. Let's see what this beautiful girl has waiting for us. 🙏 A HUGE THANK YOU A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible and for giving us the opportunity to explore these beautiful Pickle Lemon Haze F1 cultivars individually. Thank you to PLAGRON for the Hydro nutrient line supporting these vigorous girls throughout their flowering journey. A massive thank you to Zamnesia for the Phytonaut LED lighting, curved scissors and clip fans that continue playing such important roles inside this project. Thank you to Mars Hydro for the irrigation and drainage system that continues working flawlessly and keeping these girls consistently supplied. And a special thank you to LumiFlora for the under-canopy lighting we're now using as another part of this experiment. We're very curious to see how these supplemental lights influence the lower portions of the canopy as flowering progresses. And of course... thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us this platform to document everything. The successes. The mistakes. The experiments. The surprises. And all the little lessons along the way. And finally... thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. 💙 Four plants. One tent. Shared conditions. Shared reservoir. Shared environment. And somehow... four individual personalities developing right in front of us. Pickle Lemon Haze F1 Pheno A is looking absolutely beautiful. The frost is there. The flowers are forming. The canopy is even. The irrigation is working. The drainage is spotless. The lighting is in place. And now... we let her shine. Until next week... Keep growing. Keep learning. Keep observing. And most importantly... keep shining, beautiful girl. 💙🥒🌸❄️ Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙

Did some defoliation this week, not much but enough to create some airflow and unblock a few bud sites. Readjusted my DIY “floating” to take up some of the stretch that had gotten out of control, ❤️ that I can do that! The frost is real for this strain OMG, week 3 and it’s already as frosty as some of the Autoflower’s I have grown. Temps have been climbing here and there, we’re getting a lot of dry heat so that’s the plus at least, not a lot of humidity at the moment. I’m really wishing I had taken clones from these girls because I’m sure they are going to be insane if they look this good at week 3. 🇨🇦👊❤️

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.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la tercera semana de floración de estas Fishy Zoap feminizadas de Seedstockers. Vamos al lío ,se trasplantaron en macetas de 7 litros definitivamente. El ph se controla en 6.0 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 24/20 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. El ciclo de floración puse 12h de luz, el foco está al 80% de potencia. De momento van creciendo a buen ritmo y tienen un buen color, estaban muy bien enraizadas al realizarle el trasplante se notaba la abundancia radicular. Comentar de nuevo que el estrés hídrico fue superado sin problemas, esperemos que no surja nada más. Gracias Agrobeta por el envío de la Gold series para esta temporada, se vienen cositas 🙏 - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida Descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Just getting started on the right foot. Coco and bags sterilized and flushed thoroughly with 0.7EC at 6.0pH solution. Will transplant tomorrow once the coco drains down a bit. Plants look great and excited to push down the accelerator. 4/2 - transplanted into 3 gal and watered in. 4/4 - Reservoir cleaned, sanitized, and online. Switched to tap water (0.3EC) and nutes at 0.8EC for total of 1.1. Ph 5.9. New feed pump installed (no more getting electrocuted when I put my hand in the bucket. YAY!) and 5" watering rings installed. PPFD 550. 4/5 - really quite chuffed. PPFD to 600 and they are looking great. Moved Zoey up 2" to match canopy height. 4/6 - switched Silica Boost to foliar spray at rate of 40ml / gal in RO water, pH to 5.8

Aug 22 - Aug 28 Week 16 (Day 106-Day 112) The Low Down- Plants responded well to the Advanced Nutrients I watered with a couple of days ago. By 'responded well' I just mean that they didn't yellow or adversely react. I'm still watering 2 gallons per day per plant when I water, but I skipped a day since I don't want to get root rot. Twice before I have had the plants get waterlogged at the bottom of the pot (obviously right =-) ), and I didn't know then that it caused the leaves to yellow from the bottom up. I honestly thought I had nutrient burn. That said, I skipped a day on the watering. I applied kelp meal on day 111. I broke my rule and used Monterey B.T. on day 111. Honestly--I felt scared because I can't inspect the plants everyday so I went for the Monterey b.t. to combat the caterpillars. Not sure if I will apply again since we are in flowering. The Plants- The plants look great and smell great. Thank you EQuillibrium Genetics. Everyday they get a little more aromatic. The smell is somewhere between minty/lemony/orangey and some bomb ass weed. Will definitely hit. One day I could've sworn it smelled like that Gary Payton weed, basically kushy, citrusy, and a little sour diesely. On DAY 108 in the morning they smelled like orange fanta. Amendments- I applied kelp meal on DAY 111 (Aug 22). The quality has improved in my plants since I started more actively amending the soil a few years back. Before I just used to add that Alaska fish emulsion directly on the soil once a month. Now I use Kelp Meal from Down-to-Earth and the Bud Candy and Overdrive from Advanced Nutrients. I even used some cha-ching from Fox Farms at the end of last season. I don't start adding anything until at least a month or two into the grow because the soils I use already come amended. I also continue using the soil year after year. I take all the soil at the end of the year and place it on a tarp. Then I add perlite, bone meal, blood meal, kelp meal, molasses, coffee grinds, banana peels, egg shells, and mix it all up. I let that sit for a couple of weeks or longer and then start using it on my potted plants in the garden. If I have enough left over after 2 months I will fill up the fabric pots again and plant clover, thyme, and oregano during the off season.
