Been a busy week sorry fir the late update everything is going great she is still stretching not as much as o would of liked hopfully by the end of this week she will have that final push

Demorou um pouco mas lá saiu...

Aroma is extremely strong, pistols are maturing, bud sites are becoming more dense, anthocyanins doing their job on this pheno, fan leaves began yellowing due to slight heat stress. Approaching Harvest

Hey, there peeps! Apologies for not updating my diary as I have been quite busy balancing non-plant responsibilities -.-! Anyway, we are now on day 75 since I ordered my equipment and started germinating my seed and day 71 since I placed my seedling in her first Coco pot! She is now a staggering 4 foot 2 - which was overwhelming considering this is my first grow and orginally only cleared out 2/3 of my cuboard but now it uses the whole space but she's coming along so well! I have also added a LED Grow Light Full Spectrum 50W Red COB as I wanted some extra light for the bottom half nuggests. She is very healthy (I assume from the strong healthy roots) and hasnt shown any major defects other then the initial defects i encountered in week 2-3 and slight light burn on the top cola in week 7 which was from the plant growing so quickly and touching the light, but I did then adjust the light within 2-3 hours. What do you guys think and how did she get so tall consdiering she is an auto-flower and the strain is meant to be indica domiant?

Still going strong

This week, I adjusted the duration of the daylight hours.

Just a amazing!! Both last FireBerry hit 3 Oz with good measure 14g pressed to a bit over 2 g of rosin

🌱 Germination Journey with Terpyz Mutant Mentha de Croco 🌱 Hey Grow Fam! Today kicks off an exciting adventure with Terpyz Mutant Mentha de Croco genetics. I’ve got 10 regular seeds ready to sprout, and I’m looking forward to discovering some beautiful female phenotypes—and maybe even a standout male for potential future breeding. It’s been a while since I’ve worked with regular seeds, so I’m thrilled to dive in! Germination Process Overview: Here’s a step-by-step rundown of the germination setup and process, with a special focus on the equipment and nutrients that are helping these seeds thrive right from the start. Step 1: TheCannaKan Germination Pod 🌱 For germination, I rely on TheCannaKan—a device I’ve come to love and trust. It’s designed to create the perfect microclimate for seed germination, and within just 24 hours, the seeds started showing signs of life. By the 32-hour mark, they were all ready to be transferred to the next stage! I can’t recommend this gadget enough for anyone serious about getting strong, early growth from their seeds. • Why TheCannaKan? • Humidity Control: Ensures seeds stay hydrated without oversaturation. • Stable Temperature: Maintains an even temperature around the seeds, so there’s no shock or stalling. • Enhanced Oxygenation: Keeps fresh air circulating, helping prevent mold and ensuring seeds don’t suffocate. Step 2: Transfer to Root Riots & Aptus Holland Supplements 💧 Once the seeds were sprouted, I transferred them into Root Riots, known for their excellent water retention and structure that encourages strong root growth. Root Riots also have a pH-balanced, spongy texture that makes it easy for roots to penetrate, promoting sturdy, healthy root systems. At this stage, I started using Aptus Holland’s Regulator and Startbooster at 1ml/L each. Here’s why I chose these products for early growth: • Aptus Regulator (1ml/L): Helps strengthen the plants against environmental stresses by supporting cell wall structure. It’s a fantastic choice for giving young seedlings an early boost in resilience. • Aptus Startbooster (1ml/L): This product provides essential microbes and nutrients that stimulate root growth and early plant vigor. Especially for regular seeds, the early root development makes a noticeable difference in later growth stages. Step 3: Lighting with Future of Grow (FOG) LED at 200 PPFD 💡 For lighting, I’m using a Future of Grow (FOG) 600W LED. For the germination stage, I’ve dimmed it to around 200 PPFD (photosynthetic photon flux density), which provides just enough light for healthy, strong seedling growth without overwhelming them. • Why Low Intensity? • 200 PPFD ensures that young plants aren’t exposed to too much light, which could cause stress or stunting. This level of intensity is perfect for encouraging healthy development without risking “stretching.” • The FOG LED provides a balanced spectrum tailored to plant growth, setting up these young sprouts for success as they grow. Step 4: Environmental Control with TrolMaster Tent X Controller 📲 For monitoring and control, I’m using the TrolMaster Tent X Controller, which lets me dial in every aspect of the environment to make sure these little ones have the perfect conditions for germination and early growth. • TrolMaster Benefits: • Precision Control: Adjust temperature, humidity, and lighting all in one place. • Notifications: Sends updates in real-time to my device, so I can make adjustments as needed without being physically present. • Consistency: Maintains stable conditions around the clock, reducing stress on seedlings and ensuring they’re thriving. Grow Tips & Reflections: Germination is one of the most crucial stages in a plant’s lifecycle. Starting with strong genetics like Terpyz Mutant Mentha de Croco, combined with a solid germination setup and the right nutrients, creates the foundation for a successful grow. 💡 Quick Tips for Fellow Growers: • Hydration Balance: Don’t oversaturate! Moisture levels should be high enough for the seeds to sprout but not so wet that they drown. • Light Management: A low PPFD for young seedlings prevents stretch and keeps nodes tight, preparing them for a healthy vegetative phase. • Environment Consistency: Use a reliable controller like the TrolMaster Tent X to manage your settings, and consider monitoring tools for real-time adjustments. Shout Outs to the Community: Big thanks to Terpyz Genetics for these incredible seeds, Aptus Holland for their top-notch nutrients, Future of Grow for the stellar LED lights, and TrolMaster for the amazing controller. Also, shout out to all of you in the growing community—you make this journey exciting and filled with endless learning. Let’s keep growing and sharing together! That’s it for the germination update! Next up, I’ll be monitoring growth closely to identify strong females (and maybe a standout male for breeding). Stay tuned for updates on our Mutant Mentha de Croco adventure—this is just the beginning!

Finally time to chop off the second plant. Harvested just when about 5-10% of crystals have turned to ember color in an attempt to get the most upper effect out of this sativa. Noticed yet again some bugs on the leafs, luckily enough they only showed up in noticing numbers towards the end but ffs I'm getting tired of soil, especially after trying hydro. My main conclusion is that BioBizz soil is just not good to use as is, no matter what, it ends up not draining water well enough.

Right so this is where I’m currently up too, 11 weeks all together and flower for around 4/5 weeks. Nute wise I’ve been using Dutch pro a+b bloom (20ml) and old times organic (10ml) and 2 days ago started using a bloom booster... So last night I had noticed one plant foxtailing... see in week 11 pics? last week I also had a few day where temps got to low 30c but I soon sorted that out with temps now at 25 high and 16lows... Question is, was it the booster or heat or both? The plant looks so happy so I’m suck I need help 😂😂. Any advise is welcome. Ps these girls are massive, ain’t to sure how I’ve managed it, 3 plants are over 170cm and the others are 150/160cm bushes

They r looking fantastic so far. I cant stop looking at the flowers and the deep green of the leaves. Just so perfect! Weed is such a cool plant to grow! The weather has started to get rainy and colder. So i dont have to water so often anymore. The hot period on which i jave to water every day is over haha. I m really happy, how good they turned out. The work has paid off so far! Beside from watering, not doing anything special at the moment... Now i m very excited as everyone who grows frisian dew i guess, if i will be lucky enough to get one of the purple phenos. 1 of 2 purple with the 50/50 chance would just be fair haha. We will see... The next weeks are gonna be crazy!

À vite germer au moment de la planter en terre je me suis aperçu qu'il y avait 2 germe.

Day 53 Started to flush the Fruitspirit finally i see some amber trichomes 😆 Flushing just with plain water PH 6.5 I will do closeups tomorrow! 💪 Skittelz is packing on buds as she should.... She isnt the biggest fan of high nutrient content but looks like pure Indica power! Green gelato is an crazy.... I dont understand this bud 👽 She looks amber enaught to be harvested but she is still putting on weight and I wanna give her all the time she needs Day 54 Took some closeups today and as you can see only weeks to go👻 The smell of the Gelato is so overpowering I love it 😁 im so happy that I took some clones they will grow outside soon if when they are strong enaught💪💪😅 Today i added a fresh pack of TNB Natural Co2 Enhancer for the final flower weeks....

Week 8 Day 5 Hello GD Fam 🖐️🏻 Plants are looking SWELL They have packed on a lot of weight and some pistils are turning but there is still a lot of new white pistils. Trichs are still pretty clear too. Was going to use Dragon Force in week 9 and flush with plain water for week 10 but now I'm wondering whether to push an extra week through them, what do you think GD community? How do you all predict when to prepare for flush? I find it difficult, it's easy enough to spot a plant that's ready based on trichs and pistils etc but how do you predict it 2 weeks early to know when to start using your final additives followed by just water in the final week? I know dragon force and similar products push the plant to do so but if I can get more weeks out of a plant then I shouldn't I do so for a benefit to yield? Especially interested in @SHOGUN opinion if they have a little time spare 😁 As you can see in the pics peeps I've caught the spirit of Christmas and decorated my grow space for the competition Xmas Grow:showman:️ Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas 🎅 Hope you like the video I made I'm pretty happy with the results considering I've got zero experience of decorating and video photography/direction or any photography for that matter 😂

We have been introducing some nice cold temps at night, which is bringing out some autumns colors and extra frosty buds. Will continue to get temps as low as possible when lights off. We will give the plants about 36 hours of darkness before harvesting on Sunday. I will take photos of all the individual pheno's as we harvest :)

Day 15 / 15.04. For the start of week 3 of Veg I decided to transplant the plants into their final 15l autopots. Because I only have space for 3 plants I threw out the runty Super Lemon Haze plant. I transplanted all of them into BioBizz Biomix and sprinkeled mycorrhizae on the roots. I watered them in with 300ml of nutrient solution at 6.5 Ph and 1.1 mS/cm TDS. The VPD has now reached 0.8 kPa. With the transplant I also switched the small light the plants were under to the Mars Hydro TS-3000 on 20% brightness. This means plants' DLI has been bumped up to about 20 mol/m2/d. Day 17 / 17.04. The big light has blown the third relay of the smart system in a row. This means lights turned on about half a hour late today. Day 19 / 19.04. Today I topped all of the plants at the fourth node. I initially planned to top on day 21 but they did not experience any shock from transplant so I got to do it today. Day 21 / 21.04. For the end of week 3 veg I filled up the autopot reservoir and turned it on. I'm expecting some even greater growth now.
