This week the alpha plant needed some training but boy did she stretch! I had to defoliate them both but a lot less on the omega plant she's been such a pleasure to watch grow because, up until now I haven't done anything but give her water sunlight and nutrients.

14nov25, 2pm. 3 weeks, 22 days (now is the beginning of week 4) since dropping helmet. LST training continued with the next pair of real leaves, i.e. at the moment 2 pairs of real leaves (lacerated) leaves are being bent down by hooks, why? to promote side buds' growth. Substrate: 22C; Air: 25C; Humidity: 55%; Distance to upper lamp (Mars Hydro): 25cm; Distance to blurple Venom 80W: 23 cm; Lighting intensity: 50%.

I recently completed my very 1st harvest and now that I have gotten over the hurdle, I'm excited to be at it again (and with lots of great upgrades). In my first attempts at growing I thought it would be best to start with the most entry level equipment just to see how I enjoyed the experience; it's safe to say I'm HOOKED! This time around I have a larger tent (3x3) and am growing 4 plants instead of just one! 2 of these plants are Super Skunk (fem) and the other 2 are bag seed that I kept labeled (banana candy & 3x crazy). In addition to the Mars Hydro tent, I also got an affordable LED light that I am over the moon about :) After doing some research for several months I decided that the Hipargero 800w COB was a must-have, especially for the price! I haven't seen many people talk about it or use it but, everything that I did see was a raving review and from the couple of youtube videos and pictures I saw of the light in action I was quite impressed! It has a veg and bloom switch, and a daisy chain feature for those of you who are looking to make an upgrade... this might be the next light for you! These little babies are in Fox Farm's "Ocean Forest" and I am giving them a light misting of distilled water. By the end of the week I will probably place used coffee grounds on the top soil for so slow releasing nitrogen nutrients.

Piante sane, stretch energico ma cerco di tenerle sotto la rete, temperatura un po’ alta ma sto già risolvendo per abbassarla. Iniziano a spuntare i primi pistilli e a formarsi i primi calici

🌿✨ Mentha De Croco | Week 15 from Seed – Week 4 of Flower ✨🌿 There’s beauty in the unusual, and this week our Mentha De Croco girls are proving that in every single detail. Each plant is its own world — one-of-a-kind leaf formations, swirling mutant expressions, and colors and shapes that are nothing short of botanical art. As week 4 of flower unfolds, the garden is alive with personality. These ladies aren’t rushing, they’re revealing themselves in layers, and that’s the magic of growing mutant lines. You don’t control the show, you watch it evolve. Feeding This Week | Aptus Holland Mineral Line (Clean Program): • Regulator → 0.15 ml/L (always first in the mix) • System Clean → 0.25 ml/L • RO Water Conditioner → 0.8 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid → 2 ml/L 💧 Reservoir Stats: • pH: 6.1 • EC: 1.32 • Water Temp: 19.7°C They’re thriving under the steady hands of the Future of Grow LEDs, all finely tuned and orchestrated by the precision of Trolmaster. Light levels remain strong, encouraging the girls to stretch and start packing structure for what’s to come. And those leaves, oh, those leaves! Some twist like ribbons, others spread like wide fans. This is what happens when nature gets a little wild and you let it speak. ⸻ 🙏 Shoutouts, Love & Gratitude: • To @terpyz_genetics, for crafting these magical, mutated gems • To @aptus_holland, for the cleanest, sharpest feeding program a grower could ask for • To @trolmaster.agriculture, for total room control • To @futureofgrow, lighting the path forward • To the Grow Diaries fam, and the whole community — thanks for being part of this journey, one mutant leaf at a time 💚 This week, we’re not just feeding plants — we’re feeding curiosity, patience, and wonder. #MutantGenetics #MenthaDeCroco #Week4Flower #GrowersLove #AptusHolland #TerpyzGenetics #FutureOfGrow #Trolmaster #FreaksGrowBeautiful 📲 Don’t forget to follow the journeys 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.

Going off what other people say about 2x-3x growth during the preflower stretch I decided it's time to flip!

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 21/12/2019 - Fed her 1.5l of 6.4PH water with 0,5ml of each: Grow, Bloom and Max, and 1ml of each: Heaven, Alga-mic and Vera, noticed almost no run off, I use about 1/3 of the nutrient dosage on the chart, to achieve about 200/300PPM (500 scale). Did some light pruning also.

Hi Growmies Another week of flowering behind us and 3 weeks to the finish post and fruity highs They have all been productive in the flowering this week with plenty of nice fluffy pistils springing up daily now. They are also producing a very sweet smell when I open the tent too. A nice fruity terp indeed. They have been performing excellent from seed and with no concerns at all for their genetics, it is all about what the new additions to my feeding schedule can do. So far the results do seem to support the flower production claim with lots of fresh sites throughout the canopy, thankfully they have also not created wide spacing between the flower sets either so could hopefully become long chunky colas. Using the viparspectra and it's great specs for just the 3 plants has also been a new thing for me to try instead of the crammed in 6 plants. No issues to report around bugs or deficiency still and with the dehumidifier on the case , hopefully no mould spores will show up either. Until next time , be lucky and keep it green

Day 122. Job done !!! My first apprenticeship, which was documented here , was a success !!! My friend will smoke his own !!! Not a lot tho ;)))) Day 132. Girls still need couple days to dry out and i am extremely happy with such long dry. I personally in my setup never passed day 9 and here is day 10 and still going ..... Day 135. They spent almost 14 days on strings and in my mind could spent two more, but Boveda packs are in and they will cure for a bit ;) Cure day 20. She is super nice. Will try to do updates very soon. Will update Happy Growing !

Don’t take flash pics of photoperiod plants unless you’re immediately using a 730 nm far red light to put them into dark mode. Aug 24: still going strong. It’s been cool for the last few days but will warm up again here for another 5 days of high 20s C which they should all like. Aug 25: did another lazy compost tea. Had not done one for a couple of weeks, and plants almost immediately look happier. Aug 29: hot again at 32 C today. Still growing quickly and looking really good.

Week 8 update (full bloom): The autos are now in full flowering mode 🌸 Buds are stacking well, pistils are everywhere, and trichomes are starting to show up. Stretch is nearly finished – now it’s all about building flowers. Nutrients this week: • Hesi Bloom Complex (base bloom) – plants are responding really well. • Hesi PK 13/14 introduced at low dose to push flower sites. • Athena Bloom + Athena Grow (light mix) to balance nutrition and keep a steady NPK ratio. • CalMag still in rotation at ~1 ml/L. • Silic Rock small dose for stem strength. • Total feed around 800–950 ppm, depending on the plant. Observations: • Canopy looks uniform and healthy – green leaves, no big issues. • Runtz shows the most aggressive bud growth – dense flowers already forming. • Amnesia autos a bit more stretchy, but flowers are catching up fast. • Mike Tyson slowly recovering from early stress, but now producing pistils. • Aroma becoming stronger – fruity and slightly spicy terps in the tent. Training: • Final LST adjustments to spread colas. • Light defoliation to open budsites and improve airflow. • From now on: minimal interference, just supporting the flowers. Plan: • Keep PK booster for another week, then evaluate. • Maintain bloom feed and slowly reduce nitrogen. • Watch trichome development – early frost is starting, but still weeks to go before maturity.
