Start of week 5 of flower and the girls are looking happy, starting to get a decent scent on them, definitely got that citrusy smell coupled with candy sweet... I can’t wait for it to finish now, 3-4 weeks and counting 😅

Always R.O Water Watering the plant 3 times for per week 1st Watering with nutriens. (750 ppm) (06.03.2023) 4 liter 2st Watering with nutriens. (750 ppm) (08.03.2023) 4 liter 3st Watering with only R.O water & CalMag. (300 ppm) (10.03.2023) 4 liter this time is preflowering. -Day48 Finally I did some lollipopping and LST. I reduced the ones that can't go up from the below a little bit. And I did empty watering R.O water and CaMg+ Total 300 ppm pH 6.2. Light 700 PPFD. it will be in full bloom next week💪

First time actually making it to harvest also a enjoyable smoke best tasting compared to the dispensary I miss it already took 3 grows to get this one

All 3 pound cake looking good and healthy. Should be ready to transplant soon 👌👌 I have now moved the seedlings into a 3x3 tent with a 650w philzon LED light Just until late veg early flower then they are going back under the Spider Farmer for the Full MOT and Output lol Humidity has been easy to deal with luckily . I have been spraying around the solo cups and near the stem with plain water to keep it moist and Humid. Seem to be loving it so far 👌 Next step is wait til these are reaching edge of solo cup and transplant into bigger pots. Germination was success 🙌 The countdown begins!

Finally starting to see little bud sights! Will post more pics soon

Hello, everyone! Welcome to the grand finale of our Lego Ninja Tropical Tangie Run, Week 18—her last dance before the harvest crescendo! As we reflect on this incredible 119-day journey from seed and 69 flowering, the highs have been as glorious as Tangie's frosty peaks. From the euphoria of germination to the playful defoliation dances, each leaf and bud has etched a unique chapter in our green chronicles. Through the hot days and cold nights, my ninja guardians stood sentinel, warding off any potential threats. Together, we crafted a haven for our Tangie, where she flourished under the guidance of Aptus Holland, the backbone of her nutrient symphony. Speaking of symphonies, the aroma she emits is nothing short of a masterpiece—the heady scent of victory and resinous triumph. Despite a few leaves bearing the scars of the "sun", she emerged stronger, like a true ninja warrior. Now 48 hours in complete dark ! An why the 48-hour darkness ritual before the harvest? It's a ninja secret! This technique boosts trichome production, turning our Tangie into a glittering emporium of resinous jewels. The anticipation is palpable as we inch closer to the harvest report—stay tuned! The medicine-sharing moments have been pure bliss. Whether a leafy massage or a trichome-infused conversation, our connection deepened with every passing day. These shared experiences are the heartbeats of this journey. To all my companions on this adventure—from @DutchPassion_Official for the stellar genetics, Aptus Holland for the nutrient magic, and Grow Diaries for providing a canvas to showcase this green saga and to you all—my deepest gratitude. As we bid adieu to Week 18, the next report promises the harvest crescendo, where Tangie transforms from a green empress to a smokable masterpiece. Oh almost forgot <3 <3 <3 for the more curious ones, she drunk 551.5 Liters of water true the all run, from seed to harvest, not bat at all for a single plant, not bad at all <3 <3 <3 Stay lifted, stay green, and remember—every leaf has a story, and our Tangie's tale is nothing short of a legend! #NinjaHarvest #LegoTangieSaga #GrowersJourney #AptusMagic #GreenFinale #119DaysOfGreenMagic #551LitersHydration P.S. Keep your eyes peeled for a sneak peek into the full 119-day time-lapse, for now i am sharing minute the first minute out of 8, i hope that GD allows me to share the complete 8 minutes from seed to harvest one, fingers crossed <3 <3 <3 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.

Bonjour à tous !! La semaine passé après avoir dénigré l'apport en Azote pour ces demoiselles , nottament et surtout sur la Black Domina 1 et Black Domina 7 , cette semaine je leurs est préparé une potion de purin d'ortie peut être un peu trop forte.... Le manque d'azote est présent et vas se résoudre mais je pense que l'apport que j'ai fais à du leurs brûlé les feuilles.... Ce qui me rassure c'est que ce sont uniquement les "vieilles" feuilles. Des demains je les "rincerais" abondamment à l'eau claire du ruisseau sans apport quelquonque. Espérant que ça leurs fera du bien !!!!!!!!! Pour le reste , la Black Domina 0 ce porte bien malgré les problèmes similaire que c'est sœurs dont elle à pus avoir au par avant durant les premières semaines de croissance (je pense que la variété Black Domina est assez fragile mais ce n'est que mon humble avis....) Les Big bud explosent ! Et les Purple sont très lente à venir... Sinon tous ma l'air plutôt bien dans l'ensemble ! Apport pour les demoiselles cette semaine : Black domina 1 et 7 : Purin d'ortie RICHE + cendre de bois + peau de banane + Marc de café* Pour le reste : cendre de bois + peau de banane + Marc de café* * le Marc de café , à présent je le mets dans un gros sceau d'eau pour qu'il se mélange d'autant plus lors des arrosages. Je pense plus facilement assimilable par les plantes Mes engrais : Azote --> Purin d'ortie // Marc de café Phosphore --> Cendre de bois (barbecue 😁🙌😋) Potassium --> Peau de banane NPK général --> Fumier de vache Bonne journée à tous !!!

Took her down on day 69 of flower. Her fan leaves were faded purple and she shows a lot of purple in the calyxs on the stalks and in the nugs. Just a beautiful strain. And the small is amazing. The best smelling harvest I've had. And the stickiest. If you want to grow automatic cannabis. You should try Mephisto Genetics.00

Que pasa familia, actualizamos la semana de la farm cheese, la trasplantamos a su maceta definitiva, utilizamos sustrato Plagron. Ph controlado en 6,5 humedad algo baja pero pronto pasaremos a floración, temperatura ideal, el led hace si función y aparte no da calor. Los nutrientes los seguimos echando en dosis muy bajas para que no sobre fertilize. Hasta la semana que viene fumetillas.

I've overwatered my plants the past 2 times, so I let them go through the whole drying cycle which took all week. I'm feeding them tomorrow morning. I put up my trellis and trained a couple branches and tops are already evening out. I also battled some fungus gnats this week.

The plant is monster even though I topper at the 6th note she is 51in tall and smell nice fantastic today I brought them outside the tent to give them a good water down in order to drain out any excessive buildup in the soil. I will continue to update but thank you for reading have a happy grow.

👑 Godfather OG – Pheno B Week 5 | A Gentle Giant Finds Her Rhythm Welcome back to another update from the 8×8 Adventure! One of my favourite aspects of this project is documenting every phenotype individually. Although every plant is receiving the same care, the same environment, and the same attention, each one responds in her own unique way. Godfather OG Pheno B is a perfect example of that. Standing proudly among the tallest plants in the room, she’s developing into a vigorous, elegant lady with excellent structure, healthy growth, and an increasingly impressive canopy. She may share the same name as her sister… But she’s writing a completely different story. ⸻ 🌱 The Journey So Far If you’re joining this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed technique. Instead of allowing a long vegetative period before switching to flower, every plant has remained under a constant cycle of 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness from the very beginning. This allows every phenotype to express its own natural rhythm. No forcing. No extended veg. Just letting genetics decide when they’re ready to bloom. That has become one of the most educational parts of this entire grow. Watching siblings respond differently under identical conditions never gets old. ⸻ 🌸 Flowering Has Officially Begun For me, this marks Week One of Flower. She’s now fully entering that exciting transition where vegetative growth slowly gives way to reproductive growth. Fresh white pistils are appearing across the tops and developing branches. Those tiny white hairs are the first signs of the flowers to come. During the next several weeks they’ll multiply rapidly as each growth tip transforms into a future cola. Every morning brings another little surprise. It’s one of those stages where you can almost watch the plant changing before your eyes. ⸻ 🌿 A Beautiful Structure Already reaching approximately 70 cm, Godfather OG Pheno B is another one of the largest ladies inside the grow room. She has developed a wonderfully open structure with strong vertical growth and healthy lateral branching. Throughout vegetative growth I’ve relied mainly on gentle Low Stress Training, carefully bending leaves and branches to improve light penetration while allowing the plant to maintain her natural architecture. Rather than forcing the plant into shape… I’ve simply guided her. Now those early adjustments are beginning to pay off as multiple flowering sites receive excellent light exposure. Every branch is beginning to compete for the spotlight. ⸻ 💧 Hand Watering — Precision Through Observation Unlike her sister, this phenotype is being hand-watered, allowing me to monitor her individually at every irrigation. Hand watering offers a different type of control. Each watering becomes an opportunity to inspect the plant closely, evaluate her response, monitor runoff, and make small adjustments whenever needed. It’s a slower approach than automated irrigation, but it creates a very personal connection with each plant. As flowering begins, the feeding program has also transitioned to support this new phase of growth. Bloom nutrients are gradually taking the lead while maintaining enough nitrogen to fuel the final stretch before the plant fully commits her energy to flower production. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Continues to Deliver The grow room continues providing an exceptionally stable environment. Current conditions include: • Day temperature: 31.1°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 72% • Nutrient solution: 24.2°C • Root zone: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 639 ppm Everything remains remarkably consistent, allowing the plants to focus entirely on healthy growth. As flowering progresses and the buds begin to develop greater density, humidity will gradually be reduced to create the ideal environment for the weeks ahead. Consistency remains one of the most important nutrients we can provide. ⸻ 📷 This Week’s Gallery This week’s photographs capture her from every angle. Studio portraits showcase her elegant structure and increasing height. Close-up images reveal the first pistils emerging across multiple flowering sites. Bird’s-eye views highlight how evenly the canopy is developing after weeks of gentle training. I’ve also included updates from inside the room together with environmental controller readings so everyone following this project can continue seeing not only the plants themselves, but also the conditions helping them thrive. Documenting the entire journey has become almost as rewarding as growing the plants themselves. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead The coming week should bring another noticeable burst of development. I expect the flowering sites to expand quickly as more pistils appear and the early bud clusters begin taking shape. Stretch may continue for a little longer before gradually slowing down, allowing the plant to redirect more energy into flower production. Training will remain minimal from this point onward, with only gentle adjustments where needed to maintain airflow and light penetration. She’s healthy. She’s vigorous. And I have a feeling she’s only beginning to reveal what she’s capable of. ⸻ 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Every diary tells a different story, and sharing these journeys with this amazing community makes the entire experience even more rewarding. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing an incredible platform where growers from around the world can learn, share and inspire one another. Zamnesia for the fantastic genetics making this phenotype hunt possible. 🌱 Plagron for providing the nutrients supporting these ladies every step of the journey. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light powering this entire project. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable, carefully controlled environment from day one. And finally… Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read these updates, leave comments, ask questions, share knowledge, or simply follow along. Your encouragement makes documenting every single phenotype worthwhile. I’ll see you all next week as Godfather OG Pheno B continues her journey deeper into flowering. Growers Love and the adventure is only just beginning. 🌱👑💚

These ladies are doing their thang! One week since sprout. Had to move them to cups to support the stem as they were flopping. Placed a fan for circulation to try and get some strength in them. First feed at the end of week one. Went with half dose of the 1EC measurement as per Pro Line chart.

Starting to really fill out smell is 6/10 so far very sweet some pine as well

Day 50 - Starting week 8 and gave her a feeding of nutes today. I did remove a couple more fan leaves but she is really think and don’t think I’ll be able to get her thinned out enough and not stress her out. So for now I’m just tucking the leaves as best I can. Day 51 - Did a decent defoliating today but still not enough and don’t want to do too much to stress her out so tucked as much as I could as well. Not really seeing a lot of frost yet but the buds are building up beautifully. Day 52 - Not a whole lot going on right now but again, I removed a few more leaves and tucked the rest again. Plan on giving her some water tomorrow or Thursday. Day 54 - Gave the girl a gallon of water with 7ML of cal-mag today. Didn’t do any defoliating today, just watered her and tucked some more leaves. I’m gonna be out if town for a week so won’t have any updates until next Sunday so hopefully the wife doesn’t kill her while I’m gone.

02/07/2026 A new week and I believe we are starting the pre-flower stretch... Maybe. I'll ve leaving the nutrients alone for some of the week. I need to make sure she's in stretch or not before I change out my nutrients. She's already got white pistils and is 14" tall. That's 5" in a week. Not too shabby. Now if we can get an inch or 2 a day from here on out, I'll be very happy. Once I know the stretch is in motion, I think that's when I start changing out the nutrients. Like bud if itor and big bud. Oh and bud factor x. These all go in on week 5. Which should be this week, BUT I started the veg cycle early. So it's really a week behind. In that regard, I should be keeping the same mix as last week. So I'll compromise and change the water out when I know we are stretching. I snipped the main stem fan leaves as well. It was definitely a good idea. Now the branches have space to grow and not be impeded by massive fan leaves bigger than my hand. I left the very top two fan leaves as I like to do. I feel like the leaves are too new to snip off. Once the node gets a little bit older, I'll snip them off as I go. Speaking of nodes, she has 8 and is working on 9. But then I think that's it. From here on out, she'll be stretching the main cola. I have to figure out a way to tie the top down so the rest of the branches can catch up. I hand bend it, but not enough. I would need to be in the tent like 4 times a day. Not that I mind, but like 4 times messing with the environment will be a pain. The heater is overheating as it is. I'm gonna have to swap it out. Not sure how it's overheating. It should be on like 4. But then again. It's 1° f outside today. Wind chill is -17° f. So maybe it's trying to compensate. But it's like 70° f in the apartment. Outdoors can't play that big of a role, surely. Anyway, on top of popping some leaves off, I cleared out the small bit of growth under the canopy. The goal for this run is to properly defoliate and prune an autoflower. Only keep the top 2/3 of the plant. It won't be very hard to be selective with this plant. Everything is so very uniform. Something that's pretty cool is all the bud clipped branches are starting to grow at the same time and seems to be the same pace. This should level out the canopy to table top flatness. The only thing that will bother me is the top. Considering the fact that I couldn't tie her down, her top buds will be bigger than the canopy buds. Which is ok, but I want a sea of buds, not a nipple. We'll see how it turns out. Maybe if I hand train the top down, for a couple days, the branches will start to catch up. So I'm still considering the trellis net. I'm not sure though. I do have an air pump specifically for this purpose, but like how the hell am I gonna clean the bucket out weekly? There's just no way. None that I can think of. I mean I could slide the roots to another bucket for the time being, but how will I remove the bucket without lifting the plant? I don't know. Well, water pump it is I guess. That's only if I use the trellis net. Very possible. However, her branches are super strong and will definitely be able to handle heavy buds. And lots of them. The environment is looking good today. Happily it's stable, it at the cost of an overheating heater. 02/08/2026 Looking good today! I believe she has started the pre -flower stretch. She sucked down a little under a gallon in 2 days. So that's good. I'll be changing the water out tomorrow for some fresh nutrients. I think I'm supposed to start the transition from grow nutes to bloom nutes as well. I can't remember if it's before or after the stretch. I'm thinking after? I need to research this. After a bit of research, it seems bloom nutes start after the stretch. So maybe I won't be changing the water after all tomorrow. Who knows. I must research more. Other than that, she is a beautiful plant. Stretching out her side branches almost enough for me to be able to bud clip them. Currently they are long and thin and already leaning out, so no sense in training them yet. I'll wait for them to start really stretching. Then I'll do some more training, maybe. We'll see. What I've done so far might be enough. The goal is to fill half the tent. Front to back. Then the other plant does the same thing and I have a full tent. They have to stay a little thin and less wide though so they don't encroach on the others space. The humidity and temp are just wrong. The AI doesn't seem to get the fact that less is more. Oh well. It's pretty decent. 02/09/2026 Omg she is looking great! 16" now and just started the stretch. Beautiful greens and super thick stem. The branches aren't as thick as the blue dream in the tent, but they are definitely thick and sturdy. A little easier to bend too. But the internodal spacing on the branches is too short to fit clips in. So I'm going to wait until the stretch really gets underway. Auxiliary branches are starting to get pretty long too. But they're already horizontal, so no sense in bending them. Well, yet anyway. They'll start lift up soon enough. I might have to raise the light soon. It's 17" from the canopy. I want it higher and brighter. I'll probably wait for 15" then raise it back up to 22" and increase the intensity to probably 6 or 7. We'll see. Currently the DLI is 38 mol. I'd say perfect for this age. Very close to 40 but not there quite yet. Perfect. The environment looks alright now. I attached the hose to the humidifier so now it's dropping from above and is much more stable. Once I lift the light up higher, I'll feel much more comfortable. The fog is really close to the light. 02/10/2026 Well today is the day. I think. So I noticed the tips of the top growth starting to turn yellow. Definitely a deficiency. I'm guessing nitrogen given the need for it during the stretch. But what I'm going to do is increase the nutrients from 2.5 ml per gallon to 1 ml per liter. There's 15 liters, so it's half of what the recommended dose is. It should be fine. Readings after water change. pH: 5.8 EC: 880 TDS: 442 Temp: 64.4° This might not be enough nutrients. But we'll see for now. 02/11/2026 So I'm pretty sure I screwed up again. The water temp was definitely higher than 70° this morning because I forgot to add an ice bottle last night. So naturally there were bubbles all over the place. Like big bubble foam. Not sure if that's good or bad. But if it's bad, that's what Hydrogaurd is for. We'll see what happens now that I got the water to cool down. On a better note, she's still growing strong. Leaves are getting bigger, she's stretching and branches are making more branches. Lol. The environment seems pretty good now. No issues with the equipment specifically the heater. I raised the light yesterday and increased the power to match. Now the DLI is at 39 mol. Just under 40. I'll bring it over 40 after the stretch. I have CO2 in the tent, so I could go up to 45 mol if not 50 mol. But I'm gonna keep it at 40, maybe a little higher. It all depends on what she wants. I can definitely increase the intensity. Just don't want to risk light stress. On a better note, I have tons of space for this plant to grow. Like a good 3 ft. of space. So she can grow a good 4 ft tall and still not take over the tent. Well, no true. If she ends up being that big she will most certainly take over the tent. Let's hope the Blue Dream can hold her own. Anyway, I don't really expect a 4 ft plant. I'll be happy with 3 ft. As long as it has colas for days, I'm happy. Plus, height doesn't really matter in tents. It's width that matters. How many tops can one make in a limited space. Spread the plant out keeping a low profile. That way all the buds get light and not a select few that would otherwise be over the canopy. For example, this plant is going to be tall with a lower canopy and one main cola. I didn't really want this structure, but I don't have any tie downs. And the top won't grow a long enough node that's thin enough to bend. So I can't even use the bud clips. And now the side branches are building a lot of nodes and none are spaced out enough to use a bud clip on. Well, it doesn't really matter anyway. All the side and auxiliary branches are growing outward and not up, Soni don't need to train those down. Honestly, this would have been the perfect opportunity to learn how to top. But that bus went by a long time ago. 02/12/2026 So I topped her off today. Current dose. What's weird is that the water is still lower than when I did the new mix. It's only been 2 days. I'm wondering if I should be adding more to the mix to bring it back up to 450 ppm. The pH is fine now. It was a little high, but now it's back down to 6.2. The EC and TDS are way low. Like 800 cm and 396 ppm. I'm pretty sure I want to be around 900 cm and 450 to 500 ppm. Not too sure though. She seems to be a light feeder. Not complaining. Less nutrients to use. So now I'm wondering if I need to add more to the mix. Like 5 ml more of bloom and 2.5 of everything else except for Silica Blast and Hydrogaurd. Those are already at the normal dose. Maybe I just need more cal/mag? I'm not sure. I also wonder why the mix I'm using now is lighter than what I used before. It was 450. Should t it be the same 450 that it was before? Very confused. 02/13/2026 Friday the 13th! What a fun day. She got big. Explosive growth. It seems she hasn't started to stretch up yet. But she's definitely getting wide. I want her tall though. She should get taller soon. I don't mind a short plant, but she doesn't have enough nodes for my liking. Not enough bud sites. If she had like super short internodal spacing, I wouldn't be too worried, but she doesn't. Lol. Long spacing. So she definitely has some growing to go. No top off needed today. I did swap out the ice bottles. It wasn't that warm either, so I think I'm keeping the temp down all together. Technically, the water temp shouldn't be a problem at night and in the morning. But I can understand the heat turning on full blast during lights on. Now if I were a waking man, I'd be awake at 6 am to swap the bottles out. But I'm not. I sleep to like 8:30. Lol. The environment is looking pretty good. No complaints here. This is the last week of veg I think. Maybe not? I don't know where to place the pre flower stretch. Considering the name is Pre-flower, I'd say it's not flower, but it's not really veg. Well shit. I'll figure it out. Readings: pH: 5.8 EC: 700 TDS: 349 Temp: 66.7°

Seems like the fungus gnats are almost gone. 😊 Since the Maverick is 2 weeks older than the blue dream I have to put them into flour which I did last night. The blue dream seems to be growing very slowly still. I also fimed her last week and yeah didn't see much results since it's going so slow. Hopefully we'll get something good out of the flowering stretch Blue Dream is looking to have about six colas and the Maverick probably around 10. Overall I am happy. Peace!!!
