[ Information ] For all grow information, including strain and room details, please see the first week of veg. [ Updates ] (Flower) Day 1 - Light intensity increased to 65%. C02 increased to 1300ppm average. Day temp/humidity 85/70 (1-1.2VPD), night temp/humidity 75/65 (.8-1VPD). Fed a diluted compost tea mixture before lights on. Base water was R/O and tap water mixed lightly with silica and Tribus microbes. Tea was a mixture of Fish Hydrolysate, Bat Guano, Molasses, Fulvic/Humic, Kelp, and Earthworm Castings. 8 gallons of tea were added to 72 gallons of water mixture for an 80gal batch total. The batch was mixed for a half hour before feeding to the room. I did not PH or PPM test the mixture, organic material is hard to get an accurate PPM reading so the numbers are useless to me. I will be working to bring the lights to 100% power over this first week of flower. Day 4 - Light intensity increased daily, currently at 90%. Will raise to full power tomorrow. C02 increased to 1800ppm average. Temp and humidity for day and night are still the same. Lights were raised slightly to maintain 12 inches from canopy height, and a few growth nodes that were above the canopy got topped. Watered today with an 80gal (1.25gal p/pot) mixture, 10% tap 90% r/o water. 6.8 PH, 2.2ec. Foliar sprayed yesterday before lights off with a neem mixture for weekly IPM. Canopies are stretching relatively evenly, though I will be adding in support nets within a few days to help maintain the even spread. I've run this strain before so I'm fairly confident that I know what to expect during these few stretch weeks. Day 7 - Lights have been at 100% since day 5. C02 still 1800-2000ppm on average. Plants are stretching quickly into the lights, I have yet to readjust their height. The best growth usually happens when I do nothing, and I've done almost nothing the past couple days besides enjoy the unusually warm spring weather my area is currently experiencing. Watered today, 100gal (1.5gal p/pot) mixture, <1ec. Mainly an organic feeding for microbe health, also wanted a bit more runoff than normal due to the high ec feeding previously.

1/4-1/11 week 6 1/4 2pm - canopy looking nicer and more even .. thinking to scrog soon

From sprout, I've been watering every 3-4 days. Been very consistent with this. Yellow tips been appearing. I think it could be Magnesium or Calcium deficiency. Hit it with some Calmag with iron.

Yeah Lance is definetly recovering. Fascinating how this stunned him, and he and Frank are now so far apart, but same strain, same soil, same everything. Mr. Pipi will see how Lance turns out. I´m still hoping for good and quick recovery. First Pistils showed up on all the plants on Day 23. So in the next one or two Weeks Mr. Pipi expects the Flower to start. Endspurt Sportsfreunde. So as we can see in the Video Pedro is the tallest, and his overall structure is Mr. Pipis favorite, for now. Not so bushy as the Bloody Skunks but we´ll have to see what the Stretch says. The opportunity was given to tie Pedro´s main stem down. So Mr. Pipis canope stays around the same level. Initally I wanted to not manipulate them, but that´s what Mr. Pipi loves in growing. You watch´em and if you bond enough with your plants, you´ll know what to do. be in a symbiosis. But dont use Pipi on your plants.

Hi all, Grow area updates: Nothing major far as area is concerned added Some yoyo’s to the net so it can be raised and lowered easily now. I also noticed I had been following ghp feeding schedule for a recirculating system when mine is drain to waste. Didn’t have in adverse effects on the plants at all actually think they loved it tbh. But I’ll notice the ppm difference on these future updates. I was using way more nutrients then what was needed. Now I get to save money lol. Blue dream auto: Def has the faint smell of flowering cannabis now. The branching power from the mixing blue dream and already branchy plant with the ruderalis is def perfect for a scrog set up when you trying to maximize the your yield off one plant. I had to visit the tent 3 times this week to re tuck her down. Did the last tuck Thursday so what you are seeing from the pics today is three days of growth. Crazy!!!! She sitting at about 900 ppm And that’s with cutting the the grow solution some. Master kush photo: She popped through the net mid this week and hit her first tuck under today. With how well she reacted to the femm job. I went ahead and topped on the new growth on each branch. Her branch structure is way more sturdy then autos for sure. Leaves are bigger as well. One is the size of my palm lol I have big hands so that’s awesome. She sitting at about 800 ppm and getting less bloom solution. I’d also like to add I appreciate everyone’s advice far as set up and temp control. It was above 100°F the last couple days. And tent never got over 85 and as soon as the hotter part of the day was over we where back in the 70’s. Ima smoke one for y’all! 🤘🏾 Until next time #StayKited

Day 22: First day of LST. Braced the stem down low first in the opposite direction to what it was being bent to protect the roots from being torn. Bending the main stem down is the only bit of LST I done today. I’ll give it a few days to find shape and fill in its own gaps before going at any of the branches. Day 23: Just gave the main stem another little pull today to bend it down a bit further. Day 24: Moved the hook on the garden tie up one node on the main stem and pulled down further again. Also started pulling the branches into place and pinning down. Clipped off a few lower leaves. Day 25: Another bit of LST today. Gaps are filling themselves in nicely already. I started pulling the top of the main stem off to one side to fill the gap shown in the photo. Watered today as well with nutrients(1ml G, 1ml SR). Clipped off one more lower leaf. Day 26: I didn’t want to remove anymore leaves until next week but there were a few that were either getting in the way or really blocking off light so I removed 3 lower leaves and the one biggest leaf from near the top of the plant. Done another small bit of pulling and pinning. There are 4 branches that I’m waiting to get a bit longer before I pull them into position. Day 27: Watered today with nutrients (1ml SR, 2ml CM, 3ml G). Pulled the last few branches into place. There will still need to be some more adjustments over the next few days but it has its main shape now. There’s loads of signs of pre-flower but I think I’ll stay on the veg nutrients for another few feeds. Day 28: We moved from the veg space to the main grow space today, it’s the most beautiful thing me and Babydoll have ever seen. The human helped us move obviously. Turned the lights down to 80% for the first 12 hrs. We found some yellow spots on two leaves. Removed both leaves and posted a help question to Growdiares.

9-21-25 Apple fritter is doing great can’t wait for her to finish.

Pistols, Pistols, Pistols, seen the flowers began to develop, she stretched lot last night, feb7-8 ir video uploaded. Took all the excess leaves off my girl

🌸 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.

The terps are already coming through really well, I'm curious to see what it will be like in 1-2 weeks 👇 This week: --- Watering 1l-1.5l every day. PPFD at canopy height approximately 900, VPD ~1.3, Lights on 92% Some defo, lollipopped last 2 plants GC Compost tea 0.5l/plant - 👉 See recipe week 11 👈 --- Happy growing and thanks for checking out my report! I really appreciate you! 😁💪🙏

Big week this week.. Had to flip the lights, defoliate the full underside of the scrog that took hours .. Then decided to take some clones mid process ending me with hopefully Some good rooters. Also changing up my feeding schedule to a higher dose of nutes almost 1500 ppm. That should hopefully lay my coco with a healthy Base off minerals needed for the boosting that’s happening

Radical Juice Auto – final veg update 🌿

Im coming closer to the ✂️ time, i tried some pics without the lights on to show a more realistic approach of how plants are evolving besides al the self inflicted plages and nutrients burn , i can wait to the plants mature while im searching for the 🕵️‍♂️to check if thricome ratio should be mostly amber ... Because fuck im such a sedative whore, big gaz leaks homies!!!!

Start of week sept 29. First seed did not pop. This one was put in to dirt today oct 1. It will be 3 days behind the other two. But still holding in to the first seed a few more days just in case. End of first week sept 3. First seed never sprouted. But the second one is going strong sitting at about 3/4” after 3 days in dirt.

Great Strain, like always from Barney! 🌱

💜

Getting big

Great week for my girls! I have removed the fan leaves and some of the underneath small stems. Increased feeding twice this week - first to 1.25L and that was just not enough for them and second to 1.5L as they are growing really fast, requiring more solution. From the following week I will switch them to 12/12
