07/15/2025 Started veg week by transplanting an AK 2.0 into a 20 gallon fabric pot others will be going into 3 gallon nursery pot. The 20 gallon fabric pot is in second year of growing, is amended with Carbon G (Lesco) worm castings and other organic stuff I can't remember, (Coast of Maine Stonington Blend 5-2-4) plant food and top pot off with Coast of Maine Stonington Blend soil, but I want to make it a no till type bed. I've also been watering pots with BIO-REMEDY to insure plenty of microbial activity in plants root zone and nemetodes too! See ya next week.

Went to bend a branch it snapped. I taped it but the top was to heavy and snapped again. I figured cut it off now because it didnt look like it was coming back and I thought I'd just hurt her even if I saved the one.

It has been a good week for the girls. 14 days old today and these ladies are some fast growing plants. They will get their next feed tonight when the lights come on. Their feed will be 600 ppm 1.2 ec and it will be ph'ed at 5.8. Good growth this week so we increase by 100 ppm. The runoff values I will post after feeding. Thanks to Kannabia for some good growing genetics. Looking like it's going to be a trouble free grow. Just the way I like it.. Shout out to all my growmie family....Cheers.. Fed at 600 ppm at 5.8 ph runoff was at 600 ppm and the ph was at 6.0 Sept 16th Fed the girls another round at 620 ppm ph'ed at 5.7. Runoff came out at 600 ppm 6.1 ph

🌱 Germination Journey with Terpyz Mutant Mentha de Croco 🌱 Hey Grow Fam! Today kicks off an exciting adventure with Terpyz Mutant Mentha de Croco genetics. I’ve got 10 regular seeds ready to sprout, and I’m looking forward to discovering some beautiful female phenotypes—and maybe even a standout male for potential future breeding. It’s been a while since I’ve worked with regular seeds, so I’m thrilled to dive in! Germination Process Overview: Here’s a step-by-step rundown of the germination setup and process, with a special focus on the equipment and nutrients that are helping these seeds thrive right from the start. Step 1: TheCannaKan Germination Pod 🌱 For germination, I rely on TheCannaKan—a device I’ve come to love and trust. It’s designed to create the perfect microclimate for seed germination, and within just 24 hours, the seeds started showing signs of life. By the 32-hour mark, they were all ready to be transferred to the next stage! I can’t recommend this gadget enough for anyone serious about getting strong, early growth from their seeds. • Why TheCannaKan? • Humidity Control: Ensures seeds stay hydrated without oversaturation. • Stable Temperature: Maintains an even temperature around the seeds, so there’s no shock or stalling. • Enhanced Oxygenation: Keeps fresh air circulating, helping prevent mold and ensuring seeds don’t suffocate. Step 2: Transfer to Root Riots & Aptus Holland Supplements 💧 Once the seeds were sprouted, I transferred them into Root Riots, known for their excellent water retention and structure that encourages strong root growth. Root Riots also have a pH-balanced, spongy texture that makes it easy for roots to penetrate, promoting sturdy, healthy root systems. At this stage, I started using Aptus Holland’s Regulator and Startbooster at 1ml/L each. Here’s why I chose these products for early growth: • Aptus Regulator (1ml/L): Helps strengthen the plants against environmental stresses by supporting cell wall structure. It’s a fantastic choice for giving young seedlings an early boost in resilience. • Aptus Startbooster (1ml/L): This product provides essential microbes and nutrients that stimulate root growth and early plant vigor. Especially for regular seeds, the early root development makes a noticeable difference in later growth stages. Step 3: Lighting with Future of Grow (FOG) LED at 200 PPFD 💡 For lighting, I’m using a Future of Grow (FOG) 600W LED. For the germination stage, I’ve dimmed it to around 200 PPFD (photosynthetic photon flux density), which provides just enough light for healthy, strong seedling growth without overwhelming them. • Why Low Intensity? • 200 PPFD ensures that young plants aren’t exposed to too much light, which could cause stress or stunting. This level of intensity is perfect for encouraging healthy development without risking “stretching.” • The FOG LED provides a balanced spectrum tailored to plant growth, setting up these young sprouts for success as they grow. Step 4: Environmental Control with TrolMaster Tent X Controller 📲 For monitoring and control, I’m using the TrolMaster Tent X Controller, which lets me dial in every aspect of the environment to make sure these little ones have the perfect conditions for germination and early growth. • TrolMaster Benefits: • Precision Control: Adjust temperature, humidity, and lighting all in one place. • Notifications: Sends updates in real-time to my device, so I can make adjustments as needed without being physically present. • Consistency: Maintains stable conditions around the clock, reducing stress on seedlings and ensuring they’re thriving. Grow Tips & Reflections: Germination is one of the most crucial stages in a plant’s lifecycle. Starting with strong genetics like Terpyz Mutant Mentha de Croco, combined with a solid germination setup and the right nutrients, creates the foundation for a successful grow. 💡 Quick Tips for Fellow Growers: • Hydration Balance: Don’t oversaturate! Moisture levels should be high enough for the seeds to sprout but not so wet that they drown. • Light Management: A low PPFD for young seedlings prevents stretch and keeps nodes tight, preparing them for a healthy vegetative phase. • Environment Consistency: Use a reliable controller like the TrolMaster Tent X to manage your settings, and consider monitoring tools for real-time adjustments. Shout Outs to the Community: Big thanks to Terpyz Genetics for these incredible seeds, Aptus Holland for their top-notch nutrients, Future of Grow for the stellar LED lights, and TrolMaster for the amazing controller. Also, shout out to all of you in the growing community—you make this journey exciting and filled with endless learning. Let’s keep growing and sharing together! That’s it for the germination update! Next up, I’ll be monitoring growth closely to identify strong females (and maybe a standout male for breeding). Stay tuned for updates on our Mutant Mentha de Croco adventure—this is just the beginning!

| 📅 Week 7 | Days 43 - 49 | 💡 750w 📏36' | | ☔ 23%-34% | | 🌡️️🌞 74 - 81 | | 🌡️️🌑 66 - 74 | 12/21 I did a reservoir swap with the fresh nutrient levels as planned! Without PH testing fluid I had to adjust the tap+nutrients by memory, but i'm fairly accurate and only off the target(5.8) by .2 most of the time. 12/22 Did another reservoir swap again this time unplanned, because i'm still unable to PH until tomorrow. The things we do for dank buds lol! Adjusted some of the Low stress training a little more severe LST to prepare for a late 'SCROG' i'm putting in tomorrow. 12/23 A late 'SCROG' was applied to the plants today to make the lateral dormant buds grow vertical as best as possible. With a Late "screen of green" like this its mainly used to LST and get better airflow. If you are looking to weave tops and get an even canopy then you will want to SCROG while at the end of Veg. PH fluid arrived today so the reservoirs were adjusted to 5.8 after being topped off. 12/24 PH was really low so there is a possible 'acid rain' effect. I adjusted the PHs to 6.0 to compensate and I will reservoir swap the buckets if the PH drops this low again tomorrow. I did some adjustments to the LST using the scrog. 12/25 Reservoirs had a really low PH again so I did a Res swap on all 3 plants to avoid a possible acid rain effect. Essentially that's when C02 dissolves into your water forming CarbonicAcid before dropping 2 H+ protons and causing the PH to lower and turn acidic. I PHed the fresh reservoir to 5.8 and cleaned the tent out. I didn't do any training today. 12/26 I extended the intake duct to deliver the cold outside air directly underneath the focus plants canopy to lower temperatures and force purpling. I adjusted all 3 plants to 5.8 PH and topped of the reservoir on 2 of them. The focus plant has been growing fantastically. 12/27 All of the reservoirs needed topped off and of course they had their PHs adjusted to 5.8. I moved the plants apart a slight bit and did some adjustments to the SCROG for better training and airflow. Temperatures might be getting low at night, but unless it gets worse I will be fine and just consider this an attempt to get more purple. 😋 ______________________________________________________________________________ Week 7 is complete and in the Books. These Girls are thriving on low levels of Bloom + Calmag. It's as if these genetics have replaced all Nitrogen needs with an insatiable desire for CalMag. I really cant seem to give them enough Magnesium to satisfy them at this stage. Overall in this week I have trained the focus plant down into a SCROG and spread out her reach so the colas individually grow vertical. She took a day to recover totally, but she rebounded just fine and spent the rest of the week pumping out pistils. Around day 5 on the week the focus plant started to show just a little bit of color between her pistils so it looks like we have some nice color to look forward to in the coming weeks. APOLOGIES FOR THE LINES IN THE TIME LAPSE - They are interference lines being caused by the HPS and my current camera does not have the appropriate shutter-speed settings to eliminate this 😪 Feel free to leave comments/questions below or give me any feedback to improve my diaries. If you like this Diary follow along and check out my others as well 😎

Stretch Mystery & Waiting Game 🌱🕵️‍♂️ This week’s been all about patience and potential. We’re technically in Bloom Week 2, but our little mystery queen is still holding her cards close—no visible pistils yet, even though her structure and energy say she’s gearing up for something big. 🌿✨ That said, the stretch is definitely on. She’s reaching higher each day, and those side branches are starting to fan out beautifully. The symmetry is looking solid, and she seems right on track—even if she's taking her sweet time to show her true identity. 👀 Same feeding routine, steady rhythm: 🔸 BioBizz Grow, Bloom, TopMax + CalMag + Alg-a-Mic 🔸 Homemade compost tea, applied two days post-feed 🔸 Effective Microorganisms added 48h later 🔸 Silica spray every 3 days for added resilience 🔸 pH holding steady at 6.55, EC at a gentle 1400 µS/cm She’s been soaking up plenty of sun and dancing in the breeze—no signs of pests or stress. Just one healthy, mystery-laced autoflower doing her thing at her own pace. 🌀 Let’s see what the next few days bring. Hopefully, we’ll spot some pistils soon—until then, I’m enjoying the ride. 🌸💫

Day 86 12/05/2021- Week 5 of flower almost done hopefully by the end of the month. Went out on a trip and GoPro never turn on for the last two days bummer but will upload time lapse videos daily. Today the lady got nutrients as well. Day 89 12/08/2021- Today the lady got water, really hoping to see buds starting to fatten up. Day 91 12/10/2021- So today the lady got a special treat, freshly collected rain water. She is just doing her thing and making those buds. I have also finally put the spider farmer SF-2000 at 100%. Also end of another flowering week, see you guys next week. --------Have a good one friends and stay high--------

Day29F - still showing vast growth on buds, swelling and trichomes blossoming out. The colours starting to form nicely on the buds. Smells like a pungent caramel now. Day32F - This plant is so thick and strong, and can resist a dry and hot climate. For me this plant has been so easy, and she sucks up nutrients and loves it, 💪 Buds are getting dense and so sweet to smell. So fat and so many, I'm surprised on this auto 👏 well done again RQS. Day 68- Day 33F - the buds continue to swell and devolope. Trichomes flooding through now. Starting to see cloudy so will push for another week of nutes if she'll allow it after Friday, we'll see 😏✌️💚

26-09-2021: 3rd week of veg-stage. Great. Will the be the last week or am I going to let them grow another week. I am switching to 12/12 as soon as the containers are not visible anymore. Then I also put the light on 100% power (75 right now). I sprayed the leaves with Hy-Pro Spraymix. Also topped the Runtz Muffin to slow her down a bit. Ladies almost touching the SCROG-net so probably next week starting to SCROG. I like that period on soil. Had no succes on hydro jet so I am curious how this will go. 27-09-2021: Ok.. The growth is good now, it's nice to see how they get a boost as soon as the roots hit the water. 5 cm in 1 night is really no exception. In the meantime, the first Gelato has just tapped it, so topped it right away. Now in doubt... The EC is at 1.1 and as you can see in the diagram below, the EC decreases slightly over a period of 3 days and the PH increases slightly. In fact, this indicates that the EC set is now almost perfect. (In a perfect situation the values ​​remain the same and only the water level drops). So I can go up slightly with the EC and the system is set up in such a way that as soon as the clock turns the EC goes to 1.4. However, I still assume that I am 3 weeks of pre-growth (that is now 11 days) and that means that the EC is still on the low side for 11 days. A low EC ensures faster growth is my experience so far (and is also confirmed by what I read about it). Now I can choose 2 options... continue to grow for a few more days on the low EC and then a little earlier to 12 hours or increase the EC slightly for stronger roots and trunks and then complete the 11 days. The danger of the latter is that they continue to grow quickly and that I will soon have a much too full net (after all, they generally want to grow considerably after the switch). Tough decision. Lighting basically the same story. Now running at 75% and I see nice wide plants with big leaves. Under the TSL, the plants are much more even than under the SP3000. You can see very well that the SP3000 actually hangs above the front row of ladies and that the light does not radiate to the back row. The TSL suffers significantly less from this. I could solve this by hanging the SP3000 a little higher for more spread, but the purpose of this test is to compare. What do you think? increase both lamps to 45 cm and then at 100% or just continue? The danger of raising is that they will stretch more and I don't want that because my net has a fixed height and that has proven to be fine in the past for an even scrog (see also Jack Herer round). I have to say that I can't wait for the ladies to hang full in the net. Daily tying is a very therapeutic activity for me, as is photographing the buds as they begin to take shape. Then I ask for advice on the following... I ordered Green Sensation this week with the idea of ​​adding it from the 4th week of flowering. My nutrition computer can only work on the basis of proportions (in this case 5ml/L hydor A/B and 1ml/L green sensation). However, the bottle advises to dose green sensation first and then adjust the EC. My computer won't do this. I therefore wonder whether I will not dose too little Green Sensation. How could I solve this? (daily manual dosing is not an option because of the recirculating system). 28-09-2021: Refreshed the water, Sunday/monday switching to 12/12. Irrigation turned off for rest of the round so I hope for the little lady that she survives that. Bond First Lady under the net so scrogging is starting now 😬 29-09-2021: Today I snapped the Red Hot Cookies (the only one😢) so moved the little purple Haze in her place. Besides that I decided that it is time for 12/12 so I switch the light scheme 3 days earlier. Hoping that an tiger EC will strengthen them a bit.

Replaced all filters in the system and cleaned them The outside temperature getting lower this days. Its help a lot to maintain temps in grow box I hope, as per the forecast, temperature will remain low during the upcoming week. The ladies are looking fantastic. Purple Lemonade is slowest on flowering but i think it will be rewarding to wait Tropicana Cookies are racing toward harvest; . Lighting Parameters: PAR Map: Maximum PPFD is 900, minimum PPFD is 650.

Temperature: 20-21°C 20.04.2024 Today, we had a storm accompanied by a power outage. Nothing serious, just a few hours. The temperature and humidity remained within appropriate values. Upon the return of power, the DH48-S relay timer, which controls irrigation, failed again. This has happened for the third time in the last 4 months. Unfortunately, I couldn’t react immediately, so the ladies were without water again for a few hours. I’ve ordered a TrolMaster program device and additional sensors AMP-3 for pH, EC and humidity, and temperature control. No more messing around! Water consumption is gradually decreasing, and electrical conductivity of the water is slowly rising. I’m starting to reduce the strength of the nutrient solution. Each subsequent tank refill will be at approximately 1.0EC. The outdoor temperature is still cooler; let’s hope it stays that way for another week or two! 🌱❄️ Mixed a 15-liter solution with 25+25ml AN Connoisseur AB . The liquid temperature is 18.8°C.

EC: 1.12 Temperature: 20-21°C 22.04.2024 Tropicana Cookies is the only one that got scars in the form of slightly burnt leaf tips. It’s not too severe; due to the lack of water, some mineral residue remained directly at the root. All in all, it could have been worse. I hope the timer won’t deceive me again until my TrolMaster program device arrives. One Tropicana Cookies and one Wedding Cheesecake will finish during the next week, so I’ll slowly start preparing them for harvest. Purple Lemonade and one Wedding Cheesecake will continue flowering into the ninth week, but they’ll be the largest ladies in this batch. All the ladies look and smell fantastic, and the buds are already firm to the touch, especially the Wedding Cheesecake. Starting tomorrow, I’ll gradually reduce the nutrient strength and light intensity. I’ll make an effort to keep the temperature around 23-24°C.

Start of week 3 and all plants doubled in size all plants are healthy, been defoliating every couple of days most of the leaf removed are the ones that overlap each other,or blocking bud sites. This week they will go under new gavita 1700e led lights. Should be interesting to see how they grow,and see what all the hype is with led tech.
