Grow Diaries: Week 9 Veg - Mentha de Croco Mutants Hello, Grow Diaries fam! 🌱✨ Week 9 is here, and while our mutants are small, they’re undoubtedly mighty in beauty and character! Each plant continues to showcase its uniqueness, with details in the leaves that are nothing short of art. As always, patience is the key, and these beauties are teaching me that every step of this journey is worth it. The Flip is Coming! After much thought, I’ve decided to flip the entire room to a 11/13 light cycle. This means it’s time to identify males and let the females show their true potential. Here’s the plan: • Why Flip Now? Despite their smaller size, flipping now allows the plants to reveal their sex while keeping the room’s progress synchronized. This way, I can focus on the keepers and remove the males efficiently. • Revegging the Favorites: By flipping and selecting now, I’ll be able to reveg any standout females later. For those unfamiliar, revegging is a technique where, after flowering, you revert the plant back to a vegetative state. This method preserves genetics you love and allows you to grow clones or expand the line further. 👉 Benefits of Flipping and Revegging: • Speeds up the identification process without needing clones first. • Lets you preserve special traits in the plants. • Adds flexibility in managing space and time. Environment & Nutrition This week, I’ve maintained a steady environment: • Temps: 22°C with about 66% RH. • Nutrients: Continuing with the Aptus Holland lineup—Regulator, Start Booster, and CalMag Boost. The All-in-One Pellets are still providing slow-release nutrition, and the plants seem to love it! Watering from the bottom remains my go-to, helping keep gnats at bay while ensuring even root hydration. The Photographer’s Eye Once again, my Sony A6000 has been in action, capturing the stunning intricacies of these mutants. There’s something magical about zooming in on their delicate details, seeing the interplay of light, and appreciating every curve and serration. Pro tip: The right lens can make all the difference, giving you sharp, breathtaking shots.

Today is Day 62 and this strain finishes in 75 days, so it says on the back of the pack. Anyone recommend When should I start to flush? Only the bottom of the canopy is yellow at the mo! Cheers

12/11/2019 Update is a couple days early but, I'am quite happy with growth this week, transplanted #1 to a 3gal, pot added p Plant Success 3-1-2 With Myco and tricoderma..?,. That should aid in reducing transplant shock, #2 transplant next week need more soil. 12/13/2019 Uploaded pic, hope to do video but we will see. #1 is 5.5" tall # 2 is 3" tall but fatter leaves both are nice dark green. They do not mind the cold, 60°f temps for past couple weeks in fact they have done better at lower temps than anything else I have growing, but I am putting in another heat mat to get soil temps up around 72°f. For other plants they should do well. 12/16/2019 can't seem to get Pics to upload,but #2 has some stinky citrus smell and is at 5" today only one inch shorter than #1,while #1 has a more veg smell, and paler leaves, #2 dark green. Also I believe is Saw my first Preflower on #2 today.🙏 12/19/ 2019start week 6 veg can't get pics uploaded but will add soon as I can. This week Repotted,lite watering to make sure she searches for water, will feed next week lite veg feed maybe trim a little. 🙏

My girls are getting massive this could end up being the biggest yeild ive ever gotten .i believe that I will get at least half pound from each plant

Things went very very well for me. The buds didnt quite turn purple but very distinct shape to the buds that reminds me of the original purple punch that I ran. She smell is incredibly fruity of fresh bananas. I promise to update better photos in the smoke report!!!! & remember its 4:20 somewhere!

Day 14 Flowering: hi all. We have had another very happy week growing with these ladies from Zamnesia. The size and shapes that they are now formed into look so like cabbages with nice thick , green and bushy branching in all of the pots now. Training has been a battle with them pulling the legs overnight and needing re staking further out to keep them flatter. The canopy itself is forming up nice now with the strongest tips being the ones hitting the top now. Once stretch has done, I will be defoliating to feed the lowers that are dying to get involved with the thick supporting secondary branches everywhere. All 3 of the Amnesia haze are thick leaved, monster fanned and chunky stemmed beasts. I am glad I trained them lower as the growth could have easily become a concern in heights for sure. The huge cabbages that have been created now are perfect for a strip out soon to get light to the stems as much as possible #1 Amnesia haze f.i.m girl is by far the thickest Bush. She does have a really nice crown on her too with some serious side growth fighting out of the shadows and creating their own mini plants it seems. It will be good to get to what is her actual contenders as she is so thick with growth , it is hard to tell how many mains will be joining the fun. #2 Is also a great size to work with and will produce some nice yield #3 is a similar size to #1 and has been easy to work with too they have been lifting the pegs easily as they grow each day now so I will be using wire soon to secure them for the final push. Both of the Girl scouts cookies are very productive with growing tips. #1 is a slightly different pheno i think and has a slight darker green to her too. Growing in a nice thicket so far but has been pegged along the way too. Her sister #2 is totally different in her structure with an absolute flurry of bud sites dude to the training out of her throughout. She is like a mini manifold of sorts with all that usual popcorn rubbish being able to share more light. I dont expect huge colas with this and from her general limb thickness but i think she will be filled with decent medium sized nugs. They do both need a defol soon to really give all the nodes a chance go shine. I am planning to do some this week and the last bits at around 21 f. All told they are really looking like a great yield already so with a little more training before I let them get on with it , could be the best run yet !! UPDATE###### Day 15 and i did a defol today. This will allow all those growing tips to find the light. Next few days will be interesting as they recover and get busy.

A lot of trouble in this round. The problem with the heat contributed to them stretching, and then of course heat stress -.- one of them gave me 20g while the other one 124. I fed them all the same, they may have succumbed to other stress, who knows...

Day 56: I gave 1.5L of clear water to the royal gorilla auto. Day 59: I gave 1.5L of water to the glue gelato auto. I also checked the trichomes, on both plants they are translucents, I'll wait some of them to turn amber. It was predicted a grow of 65 to 70 days from germination to harvest and it did not lie. I might harvest next sunday (day 65) but I hope it can wait until the next tuesday so both plants would have at least 14 days of clear water. Day 60: I gave 1.5L of water to the royal gorilla auto.

So this was my First Grow ! I am happy with the results- yes it didn’t yield alot only 40grams (1 plant). The buds arent so dense maybe cause of the strain or maybe the light - the overall color of the flowers is very stunning. The purple hue is simply special and unique. During the grow the temperature was getting too high sometimes reaching 30 celcius :/ this could be the result that affected the yield - in this grow I didn’t gave the plant alot of nutrients since I didn’t want to over feed and ruin my first grow. Also during drying I decided to switch on my dehumidifier and caused the temperature in my room to increase around 27 celcius and humidity down to 45% ( yes its alot ). And so it caused the buds to dry quickly ( yes its bad ) another step i Did is Curing , there is a picture of the jar. I am keeping the humidity in the jar around 55% to 65% keeping it in a dark place. And so Yes - For sure there is room for improvement. Overall i enjoyed growing this strain and definitely i will be growing it again in the future. 💜💨

I use a new EC meter wich shows higher numbers, so now my water shows 1500ppm with 1.2 grams/L drypart and 1ml/L calmag, the thing is if the runoff is about the same as what goes in yr all good.

VallyFruit 2 cut for a personal treat I got one more for seeds with FireBerry pollen doner!

Plants have rapid growth from the start. Started In solo cups no added nutrients just a light water with compost tea

Smells Sweet, amazing Taste, heavy nugs

Not ideal drying temperatures as summer has begun. Starting the dry at 27c and 52% humidity. I will keep a close eye on the drying process as hot temps could dry it a bit quicker
