Grow Report Week 15: The Calm Before the Harvest Hello dear grow friends, I hope you'll forgive the brevity of this update, as I am very busy this week and don't have a day off. I'm looking forward to Sunday when I will finally have more time for my ladies. **Trolmaster Contest** Firstly, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the incredible support provided by TrolMaster, whose contest concludes tomorrow. Without their assistance, this endeavor could have taken a very different course. I am not only thankful but also thrilled by this amazing product, which I highly recommend to all of you. There’s no need to worry about high temperatures anymore, and the ability to check your values on the go is truly invaluable. The Tent X Controller may come at a price, but it is an investment you will never regret. It offers the possibility of endless expansion with additional sensors. A heartfelt thank you once again to the support team and the representatives on Instagram. With love ❤️ **Development and Harvest Time** Everything is going according to plan, and the ladies are developing well. I estimate that they will have a harvest time of about **3-4 weeks**. Overall, I am satisfied with the progress. **Time-Lapse and Conclusion** The next few weeks will probably show hardly any noticeable changes, so the time-lapse will be finished next week. It was a great grow with many ups and downs. **Looking Forward to the Harvest** I'm looking forward to testing the ladies soon and am excited about the results. I will, of course, keep you updated. See you soon and thank you for sharing this journey with me! Your budz_bunny

The girl has experienced some interesting changes outside this week, from +30 days to +3 nights, but it seems she is still thriving. I have done a main flower cut because I am going on vacation and will leave the girls alone for 10 days and therefore I don't want them to grow out, it all depends on the weather conditions :) good luck to everyone.

(Update: 4/20/19) Please stand by while they dry. (Update Everything is going great though! The smell is very strong now; no more cut grass smell. From looking at all three today, I believe that some of the smaller branches will be done drying and ready for trimming and weighing in a day or two. I have one guess for dry weight of Big Lemon, any other guesses?? Remember, the picture of Big Lemon hang drying looks like its two plants, but its all Big Lemon; I had to cut it off to be able to hang it. The amputated branch left of the main plant is bigger than my other two plants alone! (Update 5/2/19) Woah...Okay. So after drying the whole for about nine days, and trimming for four days, Big Lemon's dry weight SO FAR is about 430ish grams of super dense and sticky nugs. Its amazing that I got more big bud than I got popcorn nugs from such a big plant. I have one more 1/2 gal Mason Jar of untrimmed tops to finish, then I'll post pics or a vid of the weigh up and glamour shots etc.. Oh, almost forgot, Little Lemon produced about 40 grams of very nice bud. This surpassed expectations because, although it was planted on the same day as Big Lemon, it was the runt of the bunch because it got pushed out of the main tent that had all the lights and Co2 environment and everything. It spent much of late veg under a very weak light. I remember how limp it was when I gambled on it and chose to switch her over to 12/12. But it was totally worth it in the end! Alight back to work for me. Check back later today for pics, vids! (Final Update: 5219 @11:09pm PT) Its done. Its finally done! I had to trim both plants with my own two hands! So Exhausting, yet so rewarding. So above are several videos of the weighing. Grand total for Big Lemon is 14oz of prime top shelf nugs, and about 3oz of nice popcorn/LARF (they are separated as shown above in a video. Forgive me for not throwing it all together to weigh it, I spent a long, long, very long time trimming and sorting and canning the buds according to their respective grade/quality. I may add one more update to show their respective weights. Oh and little lemon produced about an 1 1/2 oz of prime nuggets and quite a bit of popcorn/LARF, which I haven't gotten around to weighing yet. So, Grand Grand total of Both Lemon OG Candy (amazing job with this beast of a strain, Philosopher seeds) is about 18.5oz, or 1lb 2.5oz for two plants; 15.6oz of which is entirely made up of top-shelf buds 😎 Damn I love SoCal, I didnt even need to run carbon filters because no one be trippin about a lil stink weed. Thanks to those for following this grow! Tell me what yall think! Cant wait to see some comments from all you growers out there. (Update: smoke review after a week or two of cure) This Lemon OG Candy had an extended veg period, about 4 months maybe a little longer, and I harvested her on day 56 of flower (recommended harvest 60-70 days) because of the size/distance to light and her root-bound problems. The results so far, a very uplifting and stimulating quality.

Auto cinderella jack - Amazing week of growth. There are new nodes exploding from everywhere and its not showing signs of slowing down. They are currently loving the organic nutes and have started showing signs of flowering. Auto critical cheese - this plant has shot up recently. It was planted a week later that the ACJ but is growing some seriously fat fan leaves. Should be a nice yeilder. Peanut butter cookies - this girl is looking pretty sorry for herself. I am intentionally trying to keep her as small as possible so that I can get the autos out before flipping into flower but she is gonna be a beast. Will transplant into a final pot in the next day or so.

I have to say, overall out of all 5 purple Lemonade seeds I’m not very happy with the results so far considering they was a little more pricey & the fact that I know how good these plants can turn out! Not sure if I just got some bad genetics or what’s up but pretty bummed about this run so far😅😅 hopefully things will start to look up! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!✌️🏼🌱 Day 24 - Decided to pull the smallest purple lemonade that wasn’t doing anything so I can go ahead and get something else going in it’s place! Watered the other ladies today. Day 25 - Ladies are still stretching like crazy!

Week 5 We done some LST on these this week and some light defoliation to clear the middle out to get some more light and air. I also did some leaf tucking if I could to avoid to much defoliation. put some more tie downs on new nodes really firing with bud sites now 💪 I will soon be moving these into the flowering tent 🚀 with the sf4000 and start to add Green Sensation to our feeds 👽👽👽 waiting on some buds to dry in the 3x3 then I can free up some space and begin flower. Going to be slowly lowering the humidity down this week until we at 50% - 55% Flower time 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Hot and dry lately, she's getting big! Must of FIM'ed another 8 branches, topped the very top to try and keep the height under control! She's already started showing preflowers which is crazy early to me?! So I'm using a 50:50 ratio of Gaia Green All Purpose to Power Bloom for transition every 3 weeks. Excited to see how much stretch I'll get into flower. If she's starting flowering this early hopefully she'll be done by end of Sept!

Esta ha sido una semana de intenso trabajo para las plantas a las que realicé poda apical y lst con un espacio de tiempo corto para la recuperación, pero respondieron genial. Parece que a esta variedad le puedes hacer cualquier cosa. Ni excesos ni carencias de nutrientes

🌸 Mentha De Croco – Week 6 Flower | Week 17 from Seed 🌸 Another week deeper into the floral jungle, and the energy is undeniable. Our mutant girls are thriving, loud in their silence, vibrant in their stillness, and unique in every fold and twist of their leaves and buds. This is where the magic thickens. We’re watching the Mentha De Croco mutants bloom into their own stories, each one a visual poem. There’s something new in the air this week: a hint of color surfacing, dancing around the edges. It seems we might be in for a beautiful fade when the finish line arrives. 🌿 Feed & Conditions This Week: We’re still riding the Aptus Holland Clean Program, clean, mineral-based, precise and powerful — tailored to let the girls express without stress. No extra additives, no clutter, just balance and intention. Recipe: • pH: 6.2 • EC: 1.77 • Water Temp: 19.6°C ✴️ System Clean, Regulator, RO Water Conditioner, All-in-One Liquid, Plus K-Boost, when they’re dancing this well, we don’t interrupt the music. They are clearly loving it — lush, responsive, and expressive. 💭 Looking Ahead: We’re likely heading into the flush window soon. At the rate they’re maturing, next week may be a water-only week, giving them space to metabolize what’s left in the medium and letting their colors and terps shine through without resistance. That slow, careful wind-down is how we preserve their true essence. 📸 Visual Notes: This week’s images capture the strange elegance of these mutant phenotypes — structure, tones, and forms that defy expectation. If beauty had no standard, this would be the definition. Some are starting to show color shifts — possibly hints of purple, red, or golden notes to come? We’ll see… but the show is already spectacular. ⸻ 💚 Eternal Gratitude & Community Vibes: 🌱 @terpyz_genetics – for unlocking the mutant code and redefining diversity in cannabis 🌱 @aptus_holland – for clean mineral precision that lets plants speak their truth 🌱 @trolmaster.eu – for the tech that keeps the harmony intact 🌱 @futureofgrow – for lights that don’t just shine, but inspire 🌱 And of course, the GrowDiaries platform, our beautiful mutant-loving community, the growers, the dreamers, the learners, the doubters, the lovers, the haters — this story belongs to all of us. ⸻ Sometimes the strange is sacred. Sometimes the freak is the flower. And here, in this garden — they are both. 🌱💫 #MenthaDeCroco #MutantGenetics #Week6Flower #AptusHolland #TerpyzGenetics #Trolmaster #FutureOfGrow #GrowDiariesUpdate #MutantGarden #PhenotypeHunting #GrowersLove #MutantsInBloom Genetics - Mentha De Croco Nutrition - @aptusholland https://aptus-holland.com/ Led Power @ F.O.G.

Week 10 to the day and it’s time for the chop. Won’t be a whole lot see in that regard. It’s all being hand trimmed, packaged and frozen fresh - right from the plant. Then processing via bubble bags, pressing for live rosin, decarbed and finally - carted. I’m guessing about a years worth of vapable concentrate.

Hi, the plants are doing well. Nothing to report, I'm continuing with watering and nutrients, and monitoring the pH. I'll finish my stock of autoflowering seeds and then focus on photoperiodism. I'll do some crossbreeding with certain varieties I've selected. I'm noticing a lack of stability and consistency with the Fastbud autoflowers, but the terpenes are fantastic, especially... I could say a lot more... Thanks to those of you who read my posts and like them.

Hello all!! Thanks again for stopping in to take a gander. As always I would appreciate a like or a comment.. makes me feel good 👍haha!! This week I expect to be pretty "boring" as I'm just hoping for some good root development and growth. I do have fertilizer and some compost teas coming In this week soo may add some nutes towards end of the week. Day 8 Feb 8th- no water. Day 9 Feb 9th- all plants were transplanted from solo cups to 1 gallon plastic pots. This was not a step I planned, but I noticed the plants that went into the roots organic soil were thriving and growing faster than the ones in FF light warrior. Sooo transplanted all. During transplant a healthy dose of mycorrhizae to the root base. All roots looked healthy and excellent! All plants were well watered with coconut and distilled water. Day 10 Feb 10th - no water. All plants seem to have enjoyed the transplant. Day 11 Feb 11th- adjusted humidity to 68. Applied a light feeding using the top dress method. Combined uprising, bloom, foundation, organism xl, and elemental. Bloom was added on accident as I thought it was the foundation. Any idea on downside? All plants watered till slight run off. This feeding should get them the next two weeks before needing to feed again. I may stretch it to 3 weeks as I want to transplant in 3 weeks to 3 gallon smart pots. Day 12 Feb 12th- no water. All plants are looking good. Humidity did spike to 96% for a hour or so... this caused my carbon filter to kick into high to remove humidity but caused a telp drop to 62°. Day 13 Feb 13th- no water today. Temp got down to 61° during the night cycle. one plant has 2 leaves with brown spots. Any guesses? Day 14 Feb 14th- Happy Valentines day!! No water today. All plants are showing signs of.over watering l... curled leaves.. brown spots.. drooping... I over watered when I made the transplant and fed them. Turned off humidifier and opened intake. End of day the plants are drying out. Some of the leaves are still curled however seeing new upwards growth so not too worried about it. Live and learn.
