Power of Three

Power of Three
Rules:
1. Normal Sudoku rules apply. The digits 1-9 appear exactly once in every column, row and 3x3 box.
2. Powers of Three. A power of three (3 raised to a positive exponent) can be read in the columns and diagonals indicated by an arrow. These numbers always start in the first cell from the arrow. All powers of three in this puzzle are at least two digits long but do fit inside the grid. The length of each number is to be determined by the solver. All arrows have a unique number.
Please Enjoy!
Solution code: Please enter the digits from Row 4 (left to right) and Column 6 (top to bottom)

Rule Clarification
on 28. May 2023, 19:43 by peterkp
Rules clarification please. Are we talking about the series beginning 1,3,9,27,81,243 etc? (Because that series is not a list of exponents. The exponents would be 0,1,2,3,4,5, ie the number of times 3 is multiplied by itself.)
- Hi Peterkp, the series begining 1,3,9,27 is the series used in this puzzle. I have edited the puzzle to reflect the correct terminology.

Yes, it's not too hard, but you better get a list of exponents!
Interesting that you place the first 3 exponents, but they are under 2 digits.
Thanks for setting.
