Week 11 Veg - Mentha de Croco Mutants Hello, Grow Diaries fam! 🌱✨ This week’s update is all about setting up for the big transition—we’re finally flipping these beauties into flower! But before we do, I took some important steps to ensure a smooth transition. Defoliation & Why It Matters Before Flower Before the flip, I gave them a thorough defoliation, clearing out lower and overcrowded leaves. Why? Because: More Light Penetration – Helps lower bud sites develop properly. Better Airflow – Reduces humidity buildup and risk of mold. Focused Energy – Encourages the plant to put energy into strong bud production instead of unnecessary foliage. Of course, balance is key—I trimmed enough to open things up but left plenty for healthy growth. Final Pre-Flip Routine • Temps & RH: Holding steady at 22°C with 66% RH, keeping conditions ideal before flower. • 💧 Nutrients: Running the Aptus Holland Clean Feeding Approach with: • Regulator for plant resilience. • RO Water Conditioner to balance pH and improve uptake. • System Clean, even though I’m not using a hydro system, to keep the root zone optimal. • All-in-One Liquid, which is now the primary nutrient source. • 🔄 Watering: Still bottom-watering to keep gnats away and encourage strong root growth. 36-48 Hours of Darkness Before the Flip Before switching the room to 11 hours of light and 13 hours of darkness, I’ll be giving them a 36-48 hour dark period. This technique helps signal the plants that it’s time to transition, leading to a faster and stronger flower initiation. Photography & Details Of course, my Sony A6000 was in action, capturing all the unique traits of these mutants after defoliation. The leaves, the structures, the roots OMG the roots and the crazy details on each plant continue to impress me. I’ll be sharing some macro shots soon! Shout Outs & Gratitude Big love to: • Terpyz Mutant Genetics for these one-of-a-kind plants. • Aptus Holland for keeping them thriving. • Pro Mix Soil for the perfect root environment. • TrolMaster for top-tier climate control. • Future of Grow for pushing cultivation forward. • Grow Diaries and this amazing community for the support and inspiration! 🌱💚 Follow along on Instagram & YouTube for behind-the-scenes footage, close-ups, and more tips!

So glad that this girl was my first grow. This stuff reeks of lemon, I love jack and I think The Bulldog nailed it. I Look forward to posting some of the fire genetics I have next up. She never lost color even through a pretty thorough flush. Effects are very cerebral and uplifting, awesome for a hike or going outdoors!

Onto the next week of flower. Going on a short trip away for 2 days from 17-19th, so the reservoirs will be full before we leave. Got back to more growth and had to raise the light up. Ladies looking great and getting big. We are a few days before lollipop so the tent is a bit humid but not bad. It will be easier to keep VPD at 1.2 after day 50 or so when some of that unneeded growth is out of there. Lollipop done on 21st and 22nd. Next on 23rd to finish up. Things are getting frosty with the CropSalt Bloom nutrients. Ladies didn't mind the haircut one bit Buds are starting to swell!

Increased my hurricane fans and forgot to make the oscillate so my back plants has a little bit of wind burn but they will recover. Increased lights to 75% last week I believe. Back left plant is also taking on a hell of a lot of traits database to a sativa. It's going to be interesting to see how she turns out compared to the others. Watered in some homemade pnsb, labs, coconut water, some fish fertilizer for the amino acids, And I did a compost extract. I did a foliar of pnsb using aloe as a surfactant, and I also did a foliar feeding of the compost extract. Pretty easy week.

Check out the video! 7 weeks of flowering have passed. Tops are getting really heavy, I might have to buy bamboo support sticks soon. Resin production is insane as you can see. There was mold in one of the head buds and I had to remove a golfball-sized chunk. Some insect made its way in, died there and started rotting. I struggle to keep the humidity down and now I am watering every second day only. And i bought a third fan (typhoon) that blows warm air from the ceiling above the lamp back onto the tops. wish me luck for the last 4 weeks

We've reached the end of this journey, the result was good, a very good strain to cultivate. The buds had a very good aroma, dense and resinous, now we just have to wait for the drying and curing process to complete the cycle. ✌️✌️✌️ 🌫️

Que pasa familia, vamos con la septima semana de floración de estas Gorilla Zkittlez Auto de FastBuds. La tierra que utilizamos que está en la publicación anterior es top crop all mix, aparte alimentamos nuestras plantas con Agrobeta. Por supuesto el ph se mide en cada riego y se mantiene en 6.2, regando cada 48/72 horas e intentando mantener la humedad un poco alta al principio. Se ven bien sanas tienen buen color , ya empiezan asomar aromas y el tamaño bueno no puedo quejarme, estas semanas vemos como terminan de madurar las flores. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨

Flower sites on all plants are growing and multiplying, LST to all plants, full Canna nutes feed for all these this week at 2L per plant per week at the moment. Pink Kush plants are definitely smaller. Red Pure plants are growing well, the bigger pot seems to be the bigger plant which was what I'd hoped for. Lighting from the Phlizon LED Light is mostly on the Max setting with the COB LEDs on and the plants seem to be loving the intensity. Thanks

Unfortunately I had to take the photos a little earlier this week as I'm traveling. I think the biggest stretch is finished. In the meantime, the little one exudes a pleasant fruity smell. Day 56 Photoshooting Defoliation
