Day 10: They have been growing nicely. Beautifull green leafs, no deficiencies or stress. I did some Defoliation and I'm planning to top some plants but not all of them since they make nice main colas as well. Also nice roots so far, will let those grow for another 1-3 days before repotting them into 7L pots. While doing that I will add some new clay for beneeth the pots to have a good run-off. I will add some mycorizza as well to improve the roots and I will water them again with lots of Regulator(anti-stress) and Rhyzotonic( root stimilator). Some days after that, they are ready to get pushed into flowering. Sativas like to grow twice and sometimes even more in size. So the size which they are at the end of this week will be enough. So at the end of this week you will see them being in 7L pots and in a bigger grow space under lots of lamps. There are like 3-5 plants not growing nicely. Might have to kill them. I'm not going to waste time,energy,nutrients on those if they don't grow in size in a couple of days. So might end up with just 235 plants. Il update again at the end of this week. Day 14: I almost finished the rest of the grow room. I still need to adjust and replace the lamps some more and other things. Did many defoliation below the plants. Thoose branches are never going to preduce nice and thick buds anyways. Such a waste of energy and nutrients. Because of the removing of branches and leafs, They get a better airflow and better exposure of light as well. So for now they look a little bit ugly haha and not so bushy anymore, but they will grow into fine looking ladies. I kept 5 or 7 branches each plant and some bigger plants I even topped because I don't want them to stretch alot. Another reason is that I want bigger stems. If other plants that didnt get topped, not improving stems I can still top them until the end of week 1 of flowering. I'm putting them into flowering, by putting the lightschedule to 12hours of light and darkness. It will take a few days before they start preflowering. The first buds will be seen in like 10-14 days. Untill next week!

As I predicted the weather last week guess what?... it was a cold and wet week. My main issue its yellowing of the wedding cake. think i as to do with the cold weather as she is the close to the door. I allso burned then a litle with the foliar. The instruction clearly say it may burn withe heat and light aply at night. Guess what?... it was midday.... Black Cream Its Growing Good. Couckush its a litle bit burned. Growing good. Chubby Litle plant for now. Bomberry its starting to become the beast as is leaves size show. Totally diferent genetics Cheers BrotherHood

Eccoci qui... Tutto va per il meglio, questa settimana si inizia a vedere la resina e ora si inizieranno a formare le cime, per questo aggiungo Sugar Shot di @xpertnutrients vedremo l'evoluzione settimana prossima. Purtroppo lei è rimasta piccola ma ha lo strato di resina è il più prestante del ciclo, staremo a vedere come gonfieranno le cime. Grazie a tutti per il supporto🔥🌲❤️

Welcome back at week 2 in the vegetative Stage of my Sensi Amnesia feminized by Sensi Seeds. This strain is promising because she made a good progress over the last days without having any visible issues. This week I don’t plan anything special. The LED is at 80% with 60cm distance. Room temperature is something around 25-27 C by day with 50% humidity. She will get water 2-3 times per week. Day 18: Soil got dry, so I gave her 0,5L pH regulated water with 0,5ml BioGrow Day 21: she is very thirsty. I had to give 0,75L water with 0,5ml BioGrow. I will wait until this plant has 5-6 nodes to start creating a manifold hub at the 3. node. She starts to smell very early and intense. Now, the exhaust fan has to work 24/7 ! Keep in touch !

🌸 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.

🌱🌿🌸SUMMARY🌸🌿🌱 I started this crop with 4 plants as you can see in the pics, 2 autoflowers by RQS and 2 photoperiodics. My plan was as follows: grow the two autoflowering plants until harvest and in the meantime do a long vegetative period for the two photoperiodic plants, and then proceed with the switch. One autoflowering plants, the Titan F1, did not respond well to the training and I preferred to remove it on week 5. Fortunately there were no problems with the other three plants (I made a different diary focused on the two photoperiodic). Milky Way F1 grew in a space dedicated to her of 90 cm x 40 cm (0.36 m2), under a 150 watt lamp which in the meantime also illuminated the other plants. 🌱 GERMINATION (2 days) Seed in a glass of EC 0.4 tap water for 10 hours, then in root riot and under the lamp. It sprouted after 48 hours from dry seed. 🌿 GROWING STAGE (3 weeks and half) During the 23 days after sprouting she had an impressive growth ratio. When she reached 25 cm in height I decided to bent the main stem to the side. On day 24 I opened the canopy with some tie, then I removed a good amount of leaves. The key with this kind of auto, the F1, is not stress them in the wrong moment but if you want to boost them yield you need to do some train, carefully! During the veg stage PH was always between 5.5 and 5.9, about EC I started with 0.6 and was 1 on the last veg week. 🌸 FLOWERING STAGE (7 weeks) She began the flowering stage on day 26 from dry seed (was 20 cm height after the bending) and by the end of the stretching she more than doubled the height, reaching 46 cm despite the LST on week 3 and 4. During the flowering I just removed some leaves on week 4 and 8. The light cycle I used is 18/6 and the last two weeks I lowered the light hours to 16/8 first and 14/10 then. I chopped her when trichomes were 95% milky and 5% amber. That gave me a very balanced high. During the flowering stage PH was always between 5.9 and 6.2, about EC I started with 1.6 and was 2 on the last week before flush. ✅ HARVEST - From dry seed to harvest: 74 days (2 days germination + 23 days veg + 49 days flo). - Chopped after 4 days flush, no dark time; - Wet trim, removed fan leaves. This plant had a ridiculous calyx-to-leaf ratio, it was just big buds! ✅ DRYING STAGE - Time: 15 days; - Average: 18° C - 60% RH. - After that I made a dry trim, removed branches and sugar leaves. ⚖️ DRY WEIGHT - 110 gr very frosty buds, no larf 😁 ✅ CURING STAGE - Curing is done after 45 days with Boveda 62%.

Girls grew a lot these two weeks. I was away on vacation and they did fine. Except I wasn't there to control the stretch perfectly. But you don't have to be perfect every time. I managed to take some clones from one monster plant. Fingers crossed she will end up with purple flowers.

Nice bud formation this week. I didn't notice that the reservoir pH jumped up to over 7 pH for at least one fertigation. That seems to be what caused the reaction seen on the leaves in the form of some yellowish spotting. I corrected the reservoir, hopefully this fixes it.

I used to grow gorilla cookies before, but then they broke it, and now it's back to the old gorilla cookies, which is excellent in every way 💪👌🤤 I don't know why I don't have an option to put how many dry buds I picked? but I picked 192g of dry buds
