Hola y gracias por pasarte a ver mi diario. Conocí esta variedad hace 20 años. En 2001, en mi pueblo, mi padre y sus amigos cultivaban una marihuana a la que llamaban "Madre", hacían crecer plantas de hasta 4 metros de alto y otros tantos de ancho, verdaderos monstruos del cultivo de guerrilla en las montañas del levante español. Cuando, con 18 años la probé, supe que era algo realmente especial, era una época en la que los viajes a Ámsterdam eran habituales y de vez en cuando algún amigo traía alguna muestra de lo mejor que encontraba; pues bien, siempre decíamos que si esta "Madre" estuviese en los coffee shops Holandeses podría competir y desbancar a muchos mitos de aquella época. Cuando le pedí a José, uno de los amigos de mi padre que mantenía la especie, que me explicase más sobre esta variedad me decía que sólo me la podía pasar en esqueje, ya que no habían estabilizado la cepa y las semillas tenían fenotipos muy variopintos. Estuve 2 años pudiendo cultivar dicho esqueje (hoy en día conocido como el Clon Mario), con muy buenos resultados, pero con 18 años mis habilidades como cultivador eran escasas, mi conocimiento sobre esquejado y mantenimiento de madres era nulo y acabé perdiendo aquel clon, posteriormente y por redadas policiales en aquellas montañas todo aquel que mantenía durante años esta genética acabo perdiéndola, conservando semillas que nunca llegaron al nivel de la cepa original. Hasta que Mario Bellandi, creador de la variedad, y su banco de semillas Delicatessen Seeds consiguieron estabilizarla mediante semillas regulares y feminizadas. En 2014 compré un paquete de semillas feminizadas y el resultado fue más que bueno, recordando sin duda a aquella joya ancestral pero sin llegar al nivel del Clon original. Esta vez cultivé la Reina Madre partiendo de 3 semillas regulares y el resultado creo que ha sido aún más próximo al original, lo cual es todo un éxito para mí. Una de las 3 semillas murió antes de llegar a la madurez y las otras dos resultaron ser dos hembras, muy parecidas entre sí. Una la puse en maceta de 50L y la otra en maceta de 20L. Las plantas crecieron sin ningún problema excepto alguna carencia que presentó antes de tiempo, especialmente de nitrógeno. Al ser un cultivo 100% orgánico y únicamente con riegos de agua del grifo sin añadir abonos líquidos era esperable, aunque el resultado final me deja muy satisfecho. Además, el hecho de añadir todos los nutrientes al sustrato me ha permitido facilitar la tarea del riego y no tener que realizar el lavado de raíces. La planta que se desarrolló en una maceta de 20L ha producido 120g de cogollos secos, esponjosos, espigados y con una relación flores/hojas bastante buena. La planta que puse en maceta de 50L sufrió la podredumbre del tronco principal y tuve que cortarla antes de tiempo, desechando buena parte de la producción, aun así he obtenido de ella 80g de rica yerba old school. El olor de las flores húmedas era bastante intenso y con matices cítricos y especiados. Respecto a plagas y enfermedades ha sido muy resistente, no he apreciado signos de araña roja, pulgón ni trips gracias al aporte de harina de Neem en el sustrato. Tampoco he sufrido el temido y habitual ataque de las orugas (ni la oruga de las hojas ni la del cogollo) gracias a las pulverizaciones en las fechas clave con Bacillus Thuringiensis. Tampoco se ha visto afectada por el Oídio que normalmente aparece al final de la floración en la zona donde vivo, ni tampoco de botrytis , por lo que la pastilla de Micorrizas y Trichodermas ha funcionado a la perfección, no sólo reforzando el sistema radicular sino también frente a los hongos invasores. El clima también me ha acompañado este año, vivo en una zona cálida donde la temperatura suele ser óptima para el cultivo de exterior de cannabis, el mes de mayo llovió algún día de forma agradable, junio, julio y agosto fueron especialmente secos, solo llovió un par de noches a finales de agosto, y septiembre también ha sido muy respetuoso lloviendo solo 2 veces. Por todo esto, siendo la primera vez que elaboro un supersoil, estoy seguro que para la temporada 2022 repetiré el sistema, haciendo algunos ajustes a la mezcla para evitar estas carencias que he comentado. Quiero agradecer a Growdiaries.com la herramienta que nos brinda a los cultivadores (en mi caso cultivador clandestino) para poder realizar el seguimiento de nuestros cultivos y como, en mi caso particular, ha hecho que mi motivación y trabajo hayan sido una constante semana tras semana, por lo que ha influido directamente en el buen resultado final de la cosecha. También agradecer a todo el que pasó por aquí durante el seguimiento ya que me dieron el apoyo necesario para mejorar en mi cultivo. Un saludo. Ferinky

Destiny has given me a wonderful climate so far but from the 18th the weather will change completely, precisely in the last 10 days of flowering which fortunately is very accelerated by the anomalous heat, especially at night. Typical late summer weather here, kinda for weed. First storm is expected on Saturday, I'm ready to protect them. I've made the last rearrangement of the tent, trying to give more room to the vigorous and overflowing Pineapple Kush so I've rised the roof to 110". The plants are all carefully sprayed with thyme extract to control mites infection, it seems to work, infection is stable from 1 week. I kill manually 20/30 bedbugs a day. During nighttime, maybe a monster grasshopper, is munching some leaves, at this point I don't care, I have to defoliate anyway and these bastards don't chew buds, for now. Buds are filling very well, super sticky and frosty but looking at sister's buds is clear that Royal Gorilla will not produce giant buds (except the twin buds) . Strong citron/berry scent. I have to be very careful not to touch her because she is sticky like a fly trap and not to shake her because the smell can be heard from 100 meters away. Expected harvest September 3rd/4th week. Last week with nutes Full dose Water Half dose Water Full dose Water Full dose Happy growing my friends 🙏

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 As soon as I walk into my grow room I can smell them and when I open the tent it's a slap in the face. Though it's a lovely slap it isn't gentle, it's a 'where've you been?' slap. A 'welcome to Caramel city' slap. 😂😂 Jokes aside. This strain's aroma has me "Enamorado". Pictures taken day 42 of flower. The Green Sensation seems to be doing it's job. Buds are really starting to fatten up fast and are looking very very luscious. I should have started using it in week 4 so I'm a week late on that. *Made a little reminder for the next run.* I can't seem to get a good shot of the buds but i'm working on it. Let's see if for next week I can get a good close up. In flower I water with nutrients in every feed and every 10 days or so I water with only water and Enzymes to help break down the old roots, gives life to the microorganisms, helps out the new roots and helps to prevent root rot. It's great if your using mineral nutrients as there's times where those minerals stay stuck to the roots and can cause root burn. I use alga based nutrients so I don't have a problem with that but I like to use it, I've noticed a great difference im flower before and after using. We're getting closer and closer to harvest. 😬 "Sooo exciiited" (In Kevin Hart voice) If you like the content check out the other strains sharing the tent. 😃 I'll catch y'all next week. Take care out there! One love Growers & tokers!

Mentha De Croco | Week 16 from Seed – Week 5 of Flower Welcome to the wild side of the garden, where structure meets soul and every leaf has a story to tell. We’re deep in flower now, and our Mentha De Croco mutants are showing us what it truly means to be one-of-a-kind. Each girl in this tent is a canvas — some broad and expressive, others tight and intricate, and all of them thriving under the rhythm of precision care and the flow of intention. Feeding This Week | Aptus Holland Clean Program (Mineral Line): This week, we bring power and push, dialing in both structure and development with a nutrient stack designed for the mid-flower leap. Here’s what’s going into the mix and why: Regulator 0.15 ml/L Sets the tone for the mix. It improves nutrient uptake, strengthens cell walls, and enhances resistance to stress. Always added first for best results. System Clean 0.25 ml/L Sterile and safe. Keeps the root zone clean and oxygen-rich, no room for pathogens, only healthy, vigorous growth. RO Water Conditioner 0.8 ml/L Balances and stabilizes RO water by buffering it and making minerals more bioavailable. All-in-One Liquid 2 ml/L The backbone of the feed. Full-spectrum minerals in perfect balance, calcium, magnesium, nitrogen, P & K, all instantly plant-available. Breakout Powder Low-dose booster for bloom phase We reintroduce Breakout Powder this week to gently push the flower sites into their next stage of development, not overloading, just guiding with finesse. This formulation boosts phosphate and potassium uptake, critical for stacking flowers while keeping internodes tight. Reservoir Stats: pH: 6.23 EC: 1.58 Water Temp: 18.8°C Environment & Vibe: They’re under the Future of Grow LED lights, bathing in full-spectrum glory, all managed and finely balanced by the reliable Trolmaster system. It’s a controlled jungle in here — beauty meets data. Plant Notes: Each plant continues to grow as its own universe. The flower formations are odd, beautiful, twisting, and stacking in ways that only mutants can. This is where form meets fascination — a pure expression of what cannabis genetics can be when you let go of expectations and allow nature to do her freaky, flawless thing. Shoutouts & Infinite Gratitude: To @terpyz_genetics for blessing us with this bouquet of mutant magic To @aptus_holland, the clean science behind the healthiest roots and biggest smiles To @trolmaster , for mastering the environment with ease To @futureofgrow, the light at the center of this visual storm To the Grow Diaries platform, the community, the silent readers, the loud learners, the lovers, the haters, we’re all growing together 🙌 Let’s never forget: Beauty isn’t uniform. Strength isn’t standard. Magic isn’t always predictable. And that’s exactly why this journey is worth it. #MenthaDeCroco #Week5Flower #MutantGenetics #AptusHolland #TerpyzMutants #GrowDiaries #FutureOfGrow #Trolmaster #GrowWithIntention #GrowersLove #UniqueCannabis #FloralMutants Genetics - Mentha De Croco Nutrition - @aptusholland https://aptus-holland.com/ Led Power @ F.O.G.

Day 32 she’s exploded and the lady I was most excited to get going. I mean who doesn’t love a Russian 👌🏻 Can’t wait to watch her grow. She took very well to the leaf tucking and loving touches.

26-05-2025 I forgot to measure my plants last week, but it seems they have gained some leaves and some height! I’m waiting for the weather to be warmer to put them outside. 28-05-2025 I transplanted my plant to the vegetable garden. It grows between nasturtiums, tomatoes and fava beans. Three weeks ago I added green Culterra (N10-P4-K6) to my soil. I hope the soil absorbed it and my plants can benefit from it. My Purplematic CBD looks like it started some flowering already. It’s still very small, but she grows some white hairs on top?

Hello fellow growers, I harvested my plant on Day 68 of the flowering stage. The buds are now hung up and drying in an environment with a relative humidity (RH) of 55-60% and temperatures ranging from 18°C to 21°C, I've set up two fans to keep the air moving gently around the drying space. Today marks Day 6 of drying, and I'm aiming for a nice, slow dry to preserve the quality of the buds, followed by a dry trim. Reflecting on this grow, I can see areas where I could have improved, but considering it's my first time, I believe I've done a commendable job. There are quite a few larfy buds underneath, but the top buds, which were closest to the light, turned out great. I initially thought I had nailed the training techniques, but as soon as I flipped her into the flowering stage, she got out of control. This experience has taught me the importance of being even more disciplined with my training methods in future grows. Overall, I'm thrilled with the outcome and have learned valuable lessons for my next run. Can't wait to see how these buds turn out after curing! Wish me luck as I move into the final stages of this journey. Let's Grow!
