First week of flowering and its going great! The plants are still nice and green from the biogrow we gave some weeks ago, next steps is to give some guanokalong bloom nutrients and a small shot of green sensation from plagron! The first week of flowering we already found 4 males and removed them from the tent, I'm observing 2 more plants which can be males, the rest seems to be females!

Hi everyone, last week was hell... there were a lot of deficiencies going on the plants luckily the nutrients I was waiting for were finally delivered, and after feeding the girls with them just one time I can tell they work just as well as the groundswell soil I'm using from Mother Earth, now my concern for this week is if I should do the next watering with nutrients or pH'd water with calmag or just pH'd water? Also I noticed that I have 2 followers now!! I hope I get more than one female plant so it's not a disappointment... once again thanks for your support and knowledge! Update week 6 2.0 Well everything went to shit... I think I overstressed most of the plants or maybe I'm suffering of an unbelievable bad luck because after finding one male and one female and following you guys advice I started to check the other plants only to find out that all of them have similar traits to the male one (the one from my grow question), so up to now I'm standing with just one female a bunch of potential males and two little plants that were to little (because I had them in smaller pots al this time) to actually show any preflowers... so now I changed them into bigger pots and hopefully they'll come out as females!! Wish me luck 🙏

One more heavy defoliation to close out the end of week 3. shes really starting to bud up now, and the tent gets filled with that sweet, sweet smell. Shes looking healthy and showing speedy progress. Watering stays 6L, around 6PH, 5ml/L Bloom and 1ml/L Green sensation started with the last watering.

We are very happy with our two girls. We have worked them with two forms of different topping as we have said several times to try the yield and the way of filling and growing the plant. The first plant that is worked with our favorite topping way is worked at 16 peaks that grew up all high and regular and are filling fine. They are full of white hairs still fortunately and is swelling well for really we are very confident that this plant arirvated at maturation will be productive, beautiful and very competitive. The second plant is always worked with the topping at 16 peak central but leaving two "side" branches under the central main line. These two branches despite having tried in all ways to keep them low, steal power in the center and grow well and swell, but I think they approached a little too much to light and you are a bit burned the leaves I put it under a more delicate light Now but it's swelling anyway. They are all two sticks and promise excellent collections I believe over 50 but we don't want to protect us and enclose yourself so therefore we humbly hope that everything goes well and to compare ourselves cheerfully for the contest. Enhancer of Mother house started very good product no smell, looks very nutrient i would try to drink me too <3

RUNNING OUT OF ROOM!!!!!! light is sitting 12 inch from the top of the plants. Had to put another screen down to give me just a little more room. not to sound like im sucking my self off but i really didnt expect these plants to grow so well so now its a mad panic to save some room. Getting cold during the day and night here so temp control is still and issue. week posted a day early due to holiday obligations . hoping the stretch last another day or so before bud start producing Update but who the F$%^ knows this is all new to me Update Three days into week 10 and i had to push down a second SCOG net and push some of the stems down. showing signs of what i think is light burn .... even though im using leds. dont think its nute burn gonna add some pics and maybe you can see it. these little babies shot up fast one night after being pushed down. the white hairs are starting to really show still got 12 inches of room from the light. With everything ive read online my flowering phase seems to be a bit behind the what i would call normal time line but im guessing its just the strain im growing.

🌸 Mentha de Croco | Week 2 Flower (Week 13 from Seed) Grow Style: Indoor | Medium: Pro-Mix HP | Feed Program: Aptus Holland Clean Program | Genetics: Mentha de Croco by Terpyz Genetics Lighting: FOG LED Black Series | Controller: TrolMaster Photoperiod: 11/13 (Light/Dark) Camera: Sony A6000 capturing all the vibes ⸻ This week marks a major chapter in our Mentha de Croco mutant hunt: the second week of flower — and the official reveal of who’s who in the garden. As expected with regular seeds, we had both males and females, and this was the week we identified them all. From the original 12 beans, 5 revealed themselves as proud ladies while the rest — equally stunning in structure and expression — turned out to be males. 🌿 💚 Let’s talk about regular seeds and plant sex: Regular seeds are unsexed, meaning they can become either male or female. It’s a 50/50 genetic roll of the dice — and with unique mutant genetics like these, identifying sex isn’t always easy early on. Males typically show small pollen sacs, often referred to as “bananas” in their early stage. Females develop pistils, the first hairs of the flowers we’re after. Male plants, while beautiful and structurally fascinating (especially in this mutant project), can compromise a flowering room if left unchecked. Their pollen can fertilize female plants, leading to seeded buds — great if breeding, not great for clean flower. So, we say goodbye, thank them for their beauty, and move forward with the ladies to full bloom. The males? They’ll return to the earth as beautiful compost. 🌱✨ ⸻ This Week’s Feeding Schedule (Aptus Holland Clean Program): • Regulator – Strengthening cell walls and stress resistance • System Clean – Sanitizing the water lines (preventative, even if not in a system) • RO Water Conditioner – Prepping and balancing the base • All-in-One Liquid – Increased dose this week to 1.5 ml/L • Breakout Powder – Boosting early flower development • EC: 1.26 • pH: 6.0 • Water Temp: 18.6°C ⸻ 🌿 Canopy Update: All plants are now under SCROG netting — not because these particular girls needed it, but because they share the space with other cultivars. It’s all about harmony in the garden. The stretch is beginning, and the light intensity has been dialed up to match — PPFD around 800. We’re thrilled to see some early floral development already peeking through. The ladies are loving the new rhythm, and it’s clear they’re ready to shine in this next stage. ⸻ 📸 Captured Moments: This week’s shots include closeups of the male flowers for educational purposes, so the community can see what early male traits look like — especially in complex, mutant-style expressions. All captured with the Sony A6000 under those rich contrasts of dark and light. ⸻ 🙏 Shout Outs & Love: Much love and thanks to the brilliant minds at Terpyz Genetics for the wild beauty of these beans, Aptus Holland for the clean and powerful nutrition, TrolMaster for the precision control, and Future of Grow for the innovation we grow under. And of course — endless gratitude to the Grow Diaries community, the growers, the learners, the lovers and even the haters — it’s all energy, and it all fuels the passion. 💚 📲 Don’t forget to follow the journey on Instagram and YouTube — always sharing the love and the lessons 🌍 Genetics - Mentha De Croco Nutrition - @aptusholland https://aptus-holland.com/ Led Power @ F.O.G.

The journey with nature is one of discovery, creativity, and respect. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together! Growers Love To you All 💚

Watching her closely, she’s getting there but isn’t quite ready. Tried a bud off her and she’s already pretty potent. I am waiting 10-14 more days I think... maybe longer depending on trich’s. Hoping to get a little more amber and a little more swelling to the buds. I had to put a trellis net in to help support the buds, some were getting close to snapping. My favorite bud is on the top right, she’s weighing that branch down nicely. I’m excited to see how this plant finishes up.
