Minty Kush / Hydro Grow

Hello world ✋ Thanks for stoping by!

She is a pretty looking girl with big, five finger leaves. I have been rising the nutrient dosage step-by-step. Last time I feed her I gave her a 1.4 EC solution. Earlier the EC was 0.8 then 1.0 and then 1.2. Topped her a few days ago and first LST starting from today. Everything seems to be going perfect for her. Thank you! 🙏

No pain, no gain! Training her for the coming.. Pinched off every top that came up after last weeks LST. Now there are twice as much tops coming up. After about a week, she should be ready for the flip. EC 1.5 and PH 5.8. Thank you for stopping by amigo 😊

She has grown well after topping every top last week. Some defoliation and some more stretching has been done to her. Have been keeping the EC levels close to 1.5. PH levels were a little too high at the beginning of this week, but it's all under the control now. I love growing this girl. She's the prettiest I've had for a long time 😅Flipping the switch tomorrow, after the defoliation. See you next week 👋😉

This week was a success. She drank a lot and grew a lot too. I did not change the feeding schedule as she looked fine and even a little better. Solution EC around 1.5 and reservoir around 1.35 every second or third day after new solution has been added. PH range around 5.8-6. I am little concerned about the cold nights we are having around here. There has been a few cases when temps hit as low as +16C. BUT she's Nepali. Seems to me, that she can handle cold well. Any thoughts on this? LST adjustments every third(ish) day. Defoliated her day ago before flipping the switch yesterday. This one is going exactly like planned. Fingers crossed 😅 Thank you for taking time to look and read my grow posts! You can hit a "like" if you feel so and follow me for my future grows. I am planning to do much-much more of them. Living and learning every day. PEACE 😉👋

This week has been awesome. She has grown about 15 cm and now she is starting to form some buds. Yes! Branches seem to grow thick and full of budding sites. I worked the feeding schedule up to 1.7 EC. I am still giving her Canna Vega nutrients for one last time tomorrow. Then I will be changing to Canna Flora. Some light defoliation and LST adjustments were made after the pictures were uploaded. Added one 100w full spectrum LED for better light spectrum and more power. I am thinking about putting her under a 600w HID light. PEACE!

She has been doing good except one little thing(s). I was away for 24h and when I got back, I noticed that I had messed up the heaters power connection and she has been in really cold (lowest +10c) for one night. I hope this did not damage her too bad. I'm sure it is not a good thing for some strains. We will see. Otherwise she seems to handle training very well. Did some heavy defoliation for the last time (3 weeks into flowering). I tried to experiment with Nebula’s Flowering Stage Defoliation and right now I am more than impressed. I had a feeling it might work good when I did Bud-Based defoliation on my last auto strain. No popcorn-buds anymore.. Have been flushing her/changing the reservoir every week. This last week I changed to flowering nutrients and worked the nutrient solutions EC up to almost 2.0. Something happened for a moment after I did the change and the reservoir PH jumped from 5.5 up to 8-ish in 24 hours(!). I added some low PH mix to the res. and I got PH back to 6, but it climbed up to almost 6.5 again. She looks very fine and I will be changing her waters again in a couple of days, so I let her be. I love this strain 😍Thanks for reading about my feeding (and stuff), PEACE!

She is healthy looking and she has grown well this week. Raised EC level to 2.0-2.1. Nights are still too cold and her internodial space has stretched too much. I will be putting more attention to day and night temperature control in the future. Some very interesting smell is starting to form around this plant. I am not sure what it is, but I have still not smelled any peppermint. Some LST adjustments have been done. That's it for this week - Thank you for stopping by. Let's keep em growing! 👋

Had some cold nights and hot days. She ate good and grew good too. Smell gets stronger every week now. Buds look hairy and tight ;)

She stopped eating as much as last week. The buds have fatten up and in a week or so, she will be ready for the chop. She smells nice btw. Thanks for stopping by 👋

She looks ready to go. Over half of the trichomes have become milky or amber. This is by far the best indicator if you have a decent magnifier. She smells very strong now and its hard to keep the smell spreading everywhere it should not. Specially night/dark times. No mint aromas if you ask me. Some herbal scent is present, but it's not peppermint (again, for me). I have lowered the amount of nutrients in the solution. EC levels kept rising, but in a few days I got it under control by topping off daily with pure PH-d water. EC 1.5 and PH 6.2 should be right on the spot. Chop-Chop next week! Flush from now on. And into the dark tent she goes (any effects? IDK, I do it for the space limitation). Thanks for stopping by and sorry for the long wait.

I liked growing this strain very much.
