Day 49 smells amazing anywhere near the tent. I have done a ton of defoliation to allow some more air flow and added another small fan and also a dehumidifier.Going to drop humidity to 55 percent and I have increased the light intensity to 70 percent power.These girls have been very thirsty and drinking around a half a gallon of water every 24-48 hours. Day 50 I added a 4 inch inline fan to add some cool air from outside the tent to help cool things down a bit.Got some curl on some of the fan leaves which it’s time for more of them to go.Buds are starting to develop nicely and I added a dose of Plagron green sensation and a dose of cal mag in tonight’s watering.

Still on the hunt for those cosmic snacks, it'll be awhile until I see some fruits but here we are end of week 1.. There's only one but she's popping! Took a bit longer than the other strains to sprout from soil but as soon as she did you could see some nice strong dark green leaves. I placed the seeds in 500ml cups with BioBizz Light Mix soil, beforehand I mixed 1 gram of Synergy per 4 liters of soil. These are live microbes called Mycorrhiza which live in symbiotic association with the roots. My idea is to leave them in this container for about 14-21 days until the roots develop correctly then transplant them to their final pot which will be an 11L fabric pot. As the light mix soil comes blended for at least two week of life, no nutrients will be added until after the transplant. Happy Growing!😃 🌱 🌿 🌲

Hello everyone im still a bit noob on everything even on posting here and staff. ill figure it out in a couple of days hopefully! Lets start by saying that big bang had an issue because ........ i was growing it and i didnt see that my flores was empty and until i received a new it was almost a week had a lot of yellow on the leaves dying and falling out like doing full defoliation on the plant. have no clue if im lucky or something i do right but when i started feeding couple of days i saw signs of buds getting bigger so i continue. now we are at week 13 and from what i have seen from my previous 2 plants bb and king Tut autoflowers will not forgive when u stun them nut they will forgive slow growth or deficiencies and stuff when they are close to maturity at least for my garden. Whatever i did to them and i monitored closely everyday made them move on a slower pace but didnt stop them from being huge the only downtime i saw was more time to be ready for harvest. ill update by the end of the week with pics with the lights out (hps) . The pics are a bit shaky but cant do anything about it atm sorry! Any advice welcome the first red spots in some of the sugar leaves should i start flush? or wait to see on almost every bud?

Flipped to flower as the tent was already quite full. The yellow/light green plant is still growing really awkwardly and stretches faster than any of the others. Noticed some spots on the plant that had issues in week 3, it's also getting lighter, so I started adding more fertilizer which I had laying around.

Week 4 saw abundant flower growth. There’s a noticeable difference in the size of each bud site compared to last week. Another thing I noticed is that the buds on the branches that were supercropped seem to be fuller and thicker! Started to see increased trichome production on both the sugar and fan leaves. Most growers are against stressing their plants in flower but I believe it depends on the strain you’re growing and how she was prepared in veg. I’m thoroughly impressed with the amount of resiliency she’s shown up to this point. I haven’t seen any indication that the high stress that I’ve put her through towards the end of veg and the beginning of flowering has cost me anything besides an additional week of flower.

Day 65: All good they are stinky and getting ready soon. BlackBerry Kush and LSD-25 will be harvested in 2 weeks so I started flushing them. Rest of them need more time at least 3 weeks or 4. Water intake 200 ml a day no more fertilization for Balckberry Kush and LSD-25. 600W LED, 18 hours on 6 hours off humidity is low approx 35 percent.

The plants look very healthy and they have big and dense buds , ill havr to wait anothe week or cuple days until harvest even tho it may be a bit soon for it. One of the plants has started to root its top head of the buds , but i soupose its because of the temp . The air is getting dry cuz of the hot weather even tho im using 250w-400w lights on them . Trichromes look preety good and the bud is frosty . Some of the plants are not ready yet for some reason so i think i have to give them a bit more time

🌸 Mentha De Croco – Week 6 Flower | Week 17 from Seed 🌸 Another week deeper into the floral jungle, and the energy is undeniable. Our mutant girls are thriving, loud in their silence, vibrant in their stillness, and unique in every fold and twist of their leaves and buds. This is where the magic thickens. We’re watching the Mentha De Croco mutants bloom into their own stories, each one a visual poem. There’s something new in the air this week: a hint of color surfacing, dancing around the edges. It seems we might be in for a beautiful fade when the finish line arrives. 🌿 Feed & Conditions This Week: We’re still riding the Aptus Holland Clean Program, clean, mineral-based, precise and powerful — tailored to let the girls express without stress. No extra additives, no clutter, just balance and intention. Recipe: • pH: 6.2 • EC: 1.77 • Water Temp: 19.6°C ✴️ System Clean, Regulator, RO Water Conditioner, All-in-One Liquid, Plus K-Boost, when they’re dancing this well, we don’t interrupt the music. They are clearly loving it — lush, responsive, and expressive. 💭 Looking Ahead: We’re likely heading into the flush window soon. At the rate they’re maturing, next week may be a water-only week, giving them space to metabolize what’s left in the medium and letting their colors and terps shine through without resistance. That slow, careful wind-down is how we preserve their true essence. 📸 Visual Notes: This week’s images capture the strange elegance of these mutant phenotypes — structure, tones, and forms that defy expectation. If beauty had no standard, this would be the definition. Some are starting to show color shifts — possibly hints of purple, red, or golden notes to come? We’ll see… but the show is already spectacular. ⸻ 💚 Eternal Gratitude & Community Vibes: 🌱 @terpyz_genetics – for unlocking the mutant code and redefining diversity in cannabis 🌱 @aptus_holland – for clean mineral precision that lets plants speak their truth 🌱 @trolmaster.eu – for the tech that keeps the harmony intact 🌱 @futureofgrow – for lights that don’t just shine, but inspire 🌱 And of course, the GrowDiaries platform, our beautiful mutant-loving community, the growers, the dreamers, the learners, the doubters, the lovers, the haters — this story belongs to all of us. ⸻ Sometimes the strange is sacred. Sometimes the freak is the flower. And here, in this garden — they are both. 🌱💫 #MenthaDeCroco #MutantGenetics #Week6Flower #AptusHolland #TerpyzGenetics #Trolmaster #FutureOfGrow #GrowDiariesUpdate #MutantGarden #PhenotypeHunting #GrowersLove #MutantsInBloom Genetics - Mentha De Croco Nutrition - @aptusholland https://aptus-holland.com/ Led Power @ F.O.G.

Hi Growmies So here we have it , the end is nigh !. After and interesting 99 Days from seed and 70 days in their flowering phase of an expected 63. It is not unusual to pass the stated times and even early harvest on occasions so I am not hung up about the timing and is another reason that I use the trichromes as a guide to the right time to pull them. The #1 has definitely reached her harvest window now with some Amber tricks now being visible on checking. She looks so sweet now and I did begin to trim her up a little before I started the update pics. I do plan on using the bowl trimmer for speed this run and will video how it goes for the next update. I hate trim-jail so will use the spinner to help. Some of the buds look a bit small low down and I expect drying will shrink them to a Nug but all adds to final yield. I am not too stoked about the overall bud sizes and suspect the products did have an effect on that outcome for me but tje quality and number are its saving grace . The #2 Lady is looking chunkier than her sister although not as big in footprint. Her trichromes are beginning to cloud now so I expect at least another week before her harvest is due #3 is the most impressive for looks and appeal for sure. , she is covered in medium sized colas amd has some of the purpled leaves that the strain is known for. She is also as frosty as hell to highlight her even more. Like #2 she needs the ripening time now so I expect next update to be the final before harvest results. It has been a simple grow with no real dramas to contend with. Thanks for riding along with me. Be well.

have had some temperature problems with the change of the season but i think im dialed in now. this first run really has been trial and error. but so far the buds are swelling nicely. zkittles has more bud sites, and is taller and bushier. blue dream buds are already bigger than zkittles

a few days ago the soil probably had a pH value that was too low.. this was shown by the fact that the plants showed a Calcium-defiency. I solved this problem by pouring hard tap water with a pH value of around 7 once. Now everything looks very promising. although we are already through with the third week of flowering, my biggest one has grown from 41 to 48 cm the photos were taken before watering.
