Welcome to my Honey Mints Diary from Exotic Seeds.
Seedling Days 0-5
She's moving slowly. But moving. DLI was low for the 1st 5 days. 23-24 16hrs 10k lux. Have moved that to 17.5-18 hrs a day and bumped the lux up by 50%. Somewhere in the region of 350-400ppfd. Co2, really doesn't matter at this stage. But, on my readings I'm hitting 750. So ambient conditions all round. RH/TEMP are low, that, and I've the girls with the tent door open. Soon I'll set up a negative seal, as soon as all my projects (seeds) have left the seedling stage then I'll start. This girl is in for a long veg. 10-12 weeks. If growth stays at this rate. It'll be the latter. But, it'll be the longest veg I've done on my fems. Usually I flip betweeen wk 7 or 9. So, expecting big mothers. Within the 4-5 month crops I'm hoping to squeeze 2 rounds of auto, 2 x 8 phenos varies strains. Mostly CBD this run. Mimosa, Highcloudz & Alienz and Strawberry Cola from exotic seed will be showing their faces.
This lady will be topped n a few weeks.
Welcome to my Honey Mints by Exotic Seeds. Thanks to Spider-Farmer for their sponsorship for the SE5000 that will be used in flowering. I'm using my FC3000 given to me by Mars-Hydro.
Hi
Day 8-26
Great growth in the last wk. I uppotted her and she took to it like a bat outta hell. Will start LST'in her soon. She's still in a rapid growth phase. And nodes are very pliable.
Thanks to my sponsors Exotic Seeds for the contest. And to both excellent well known light makers (Spider-Farmer & Mars-Hydro) the FC 3000 has vegged my plants this past 5 weeks. This plant has been started a week after. I'm really considering changing my mind any doing 4-5 month grows with most of my fems. Some will need an long grow. I've 4 strong Hazes that take 10-11 weeks in flowering. I've 6 autos on 5-7 weeks out. So, hopefully a lot will open up in time. I have a 70cm2 tent I can use to flip my bigger fems. So, I have space for 8 if needed to flip. (4 in 12 and another 4 in for the other 12)
Some how, I'll manage my exploding crop
Thanks to all who stop by. Look forward to seen your diaries so drop a like so I can visit yours. Either way I appreciate you stopping by.
Welcome to my Honey Mints Diary. Seeds wony from Exotic Seeds months contest. Thank you.
Weeks 4-7
Apologies for the missing pics my hardrive got locked. And is in the shop getting unlocked.. and I'm missing a lot of pics of plants during this time..Fortunately I had a few pics I used phone that had not be put on my hardrive. (I'll add the pics as soon as I can)
Plant started to flip mid wk 5 due to a few 12hrs windows and took over a week to kick in back into veg that started growing again. Its a small plant but my god the inters are so tight. She's short and she won't put much height on during her stretch to pre fower and during. For now I left her grow out. Leaving fan leafs id usually remove. But decided to do this 1 different.. and the shoots have little stems with 2-4 smaller shoots wrapping themselves up the nodes. (You'll see this in my pre flower update next wk. I'll add the whole pre fower in 1 update. She is a pure SOG candidate. I've 9 of these seeds left and if I like ill defo be adding a row to my Xmas 25-30 plant SOG.
Had a few issues. And a lot of plants dried up and took stress from sucking dirt and eating herself to sustain herself. She was fully checked with no hermies and she has recovered really nicely to form what could be my tightest colas if she keeps on this path. (Like colas with no gaps, the shoots wrap and grow up every side. (Sneak pic provided after her pre fower)
Nutrients
Was given plagron Alga Grow stopped applying this coming to the end of wk 6.. she a left to each all organic grow Nutrients. Keeping fish force and enzymes going. Epsom salt was applied once a wk and will continue to get it to her last wk before she goes on Xpert Nutrients for fattening.
Thanks to my viewers and all who stop by. Be sure to drop a like so I can visit your diaries. Either way thanks for stopping by.
Welcome to My Honey Mints Diary by exotic seeds. This Grow was mainly done in a 7L pot with 9 others.
This is 4 weeks since flipping..it took well Into a week before flipping. She got nice & bushy. She is about 45cm tall. And is short but they were restricted to 7 pots, had i uppotted upon pre flower, I'd be dealing with much bigger plants. But I chose to grow 10 stunted phenos with 28-50g. With space for auto to grow as big as they want in 11L pots. She looks like she has real potential to give some nice bud to get an idea of how nice this strain can be. If it makes the cut, which I hope it does, I'll do a 12 pot SOG with MIMOSA X ORANGE PUNCH. She'd make for excellent SOG. I vegged for 7 weeks. So 4 weeks veg and they'd be much shorter & really short & fat
Thanks to all who stop by & to Exotic Seeds for the seeds they sent from a contest..

Weeks 12-13
Plant is moving along nicely. In the Fattening stages over a week now. New Nutrients working a charm. Nice cola development and very sticky & smell a treat. Short, would make a great strain to grow in a SOG. Will be adding 5 to my 20-25 por SOG for Xmas. Another 2-3 weeks and at this speed she'll be done. Getting an extra 2hrs of light with using my IR730nm to put them to sleep quicker. Will speed up flower by 7-10 days easy.
Thanks to Exotic Seeds for holding the contest. & to Xpert Nutrients. Really has my weed tasting the better. Very very strong also. Easily 2x extra strength
Thanks to all who've stopped by. I truly thank you.
Really nice plant to have added to my summer puff. Lovely sweet silckly smelling pheno with strong after taste with a strong hint of mint once cured for 2 months. Before you could get a hint of mints but after curing the taste it long lasting and rather refreshing. The stone is cerbal that quickly turns to a lovely chill out bud
Have 9 seeds left and look forward to testing a few phenos
Was a good harvest wk. Took 7-10 days to dry..
19.5c 62% RH. Rooms air changed 2x a day by extraction fan attached to wall in unused blacked out bathroom..
Held a loamy smell, no bushwhack smell, sweet and hints of mint were there. Cured really well. Really enjoyed the 40-50g this plant produced.
I believe Hunny Mints is some of there new lines , I'm currently doing there Sugar Larry and TangerineBand and there growing fire right now 🔥 Wishing you all fire my friend 👈 Happy Growing
