She's very green and healthy, considering the relatively weak lamp and early problems with algae. Buds are modest in size, but sticky as all hell. She's probably only 1-2 weeks from harvesting now.

🌿 Mentha de Croco – Harvest Report | Week 19 from Seed (End of Week 8 Flower) 🌿 By Terpyz Mutant Genetics And just like that, we close this incredible chapter in our mutant journey. 💚 After 19 weeks from seed, including a long, loving veg phase and a wild 8 weeks of flower, our girls have reached the final moment: Harvest. Each one was chopped with gratitude and admiration, then gently hung to dry, where they will now rest for about two weeks under carefully controlled conditions: 🌡️ 18–20°C 💧 60% RH …A slow, respectful cure to allow all those unique expressions to settle and shine. These plants were peculiar from the start, true mutants, each with her own story, her own twist of leaf, her own rhythm. What they lacked in size or symmetry, they made up for with character, energy, and intense presence. Let’s talk terps: The dominant aroma is deeply chemical, like nail polish, with a gas note that grabs the senses. It’s bold, loud, unapologetically strange, and that’s what makes it so special. This isn’t your everyday garden — this is an experience. No two flowers are alike. The phenotypes are as if sculpted by nature’s abstract brush, perfect in their imperfection, from the shape of the colas to the twist of every leaf. 📸 We’ve shared photos of their final moment standing — each one captured in her full glory before the shears came in. May they live on through memory, resin, and smoke. ⸻ Dry & Cure Notes: They’re hanging now in a dark, clean space, and we’ll aim to maintain the 60/60 rule (60% RH / 18–20°C) for the next 10–14 days before trimming and jarring for cure. Expectations are high. We’re hoping for smooth smoke, complex flavors, and some deep mutant magic in the effects. ⸻ 🌱 Shout-outs to the dream team: @terpyz_mutant_genetics – creators of this beautiful madness 💧 @aptus_holland – for the cleanest mineral recipe in the game 💡 @futureofgrow – lighting the path forward 📊 @trolmaster.agro – keeping every condition dialed in 💚 And always, the Grow Diaries community – friends, followers, lurkers, lovers & haters alike.

Coming into the home stretch here. I've been flushing for a week, going to give her one more good watering then plan on harvesting this weekend. I still don't see any amber trichomes, but I don't want the dying leaves to cause any bud rot, so amber or not she's coming down this weekend. The smell is super STRONG!!!👍

12/3 Week 10 Brandy being harvested in the AM Layla and Maggie got a PK 0-10-7 booster in 6.5 water @1 gal each still plenty of nuets in the pot just getting them all I can 12/4 Harvested Brandy numbers and pics also be in harvest week when others are done. Not bad for a little plant we did not give much hope of producing. Trics look good - Into the dry box as the tent is full. 206 Grams Wet *****UPDATE***** 12/8 78g dry *****UPDATE***** 12/10 tested 0.5g after decarb and yep all we could have wanted, sativa-ish with good legs. More later 12/5 Fed Maggie and Layla 1 gal each at 6.5PH 12.5ml/gal Soul Peak PK booster, foliar of full cal-mag at lights out just to be sure. Later Just as I hoped it sparked new hair growth, they standing up nice and pretty New plants in tent Quick foliar feed on Maggie, Cal-Mag 1 ml/qt 12/7 Last defoliation on Layla and Maggie just taking off the excess baggage and opening the air and light paths. Layla is definitely ripening but I think one more dose of PK perhaps if not just water. Decide tomorrow Maggie still aggressively building buds so she is absolutely getting more PK, remember there is Dr Earth in the pot so its not like she is being starved for other nuets. I think Maggie, being a sativa pheno, may go another two weeks. Layla has to stay until the drying tent is empty, not using the boxes unless I must. 12/8 0.75 gal ea @6.4 Peak PK 12.5ml/gal 12/10 Looking good still finishing off pics at lights out Tried to fix the nuet list , anything I dont use any longer or dry put to 0.01 dose. Want to be able to say some things about some of this stuff at harvest.

Absolutely LOVE this strain. She has only been curing for a little over a week but I had to try her. She is one of the 3 most potent strains I have ever consumed, tastes like grapes on the inhale, and then on the exhale it tastes like a classic chemdawg, piney and gassey. You will feel the effects by the time you finish exhaling. I lover her so much I am going to run her back after I take a little break to travel. The only thing I regret with this grow is that I used much too small of a final container. No fault of the genetics, it was all me. I will run her back in a 12.5 gallon container and see what happens. My goal is to run 2 photoperieods every year, and get a Kilogram off each plant. Might be somewhat ambitious but I enjoy challenging myself and improving. I cannot wait to squeeze this lady, but I want to give her a few more weeks in the jars first. I will post some videos down the line. If anyone wants a quick pound or two of some potent ass indica leaning flower, this is your girl. I honestly don't know how I could even bring myself to grow another autoflower after smoking this lady.....She blows every auto I ever grew out of the water.

Well, I reckon the girls have reached the end and it's time to chop. Trichomes are mostly milky (some amber), so now it's a matter of getting some free time and cut them down. Thanks to all those who follow me on this journey. It won't be long til I start a new experiment in Piquillo's Lil Lab. Of course I will updated before putting them in jars. Happy growing! 😉

Dec 26th- took clones from the plants labelled them accordingly. As well took the first couple inches of my plant out on the bottom layer ; took as many fan leaves as I could see . Any shoots that were too small were removed to prevent lack of growth on the top half of the canopy . They will receive water for 2days or so . Dried out and then given the pre flower routine! These plants havent had a single deficiency nor have they been over stressed in any way .

Day 84 from seed Each auto is in different flowering weeks So post is sorta confusing as my first diary Sorry! Everything seems to be doing good. Just been feeding water since last update. I will have new lights soon 4800 evo from mars hydro 2024 version planning to harvest the GDP before switching the lights out. Day 87 swapped the light to the mars hydro 4800 evo 2024 model running 40-50 percent 12-20 inch from cannopies adjusting them slowly to new light and much higher pffd than before

Not much to mention, everything in cruise control. The Mephisto NCH is just a side note at this point. After a month I can say it will be a micro plant. So from here the Height numbers in the Info section will be referring to the DeadHead OG clones. They are just doing their thing. Just light waterings on tuesday and Friday, plain water ph7.0 I am going to put them into a 24 dark Cycle starting tomorrow after lights out. And then they will go into the flower closet to be flipped. Monday 3/7 I started soaking a Mephisto Pink Panama Auto. I will include this auto into this diary as it will probably still be in the same time frame as the Photo plants. And it will be reared the same as all the other plants. Again it was soaked in the same H2O2 solution and successful at cracking in 12 hours. Paper toweled for another 12 hrs and then into root cube. Seedling emerged and has first set of leaves after 1 week from soak. It already has a nice thick stem so we will see. Not much else to report. The beauty of living soil. Included is a little Aquaponic Garden Video. Enjoy and thanks for looking.

I'm pretty much on auto pilot at this point.. im still just feeding compost extracts to keep it simple. There's a couple things I want to point out this week; I've also included a video of my cheese auto and no extra cost to the reader 😅🤣 PROCESS/ENVIRONMENT CHANGES - I've lowered the temp inside my tent a little bit to help keep my VFD between a good range for flower (1.0 - 1.5). I also changed the RH on my humidity controller when the temperature goes down after the lights go off. It's kind of a hassle but it's the only way I can stay in the range I'm looking for. - I've started to raise the pH of my water slowly... I want it to be between 6.6. And 6.8 at this point. - I've increase all my lights.. my Sf4000 is at 85% intensity and both my Ts1000s are sitting at around 75% intensity. - I've increased all my fans running. My intake is maxed out, my exhaust is on '6' and my fans inside my tent are all maxed out.. the cheese auto is drowning my entire house out hahaha its crazy. -I've cut off a whole bunch of fan leaves, larf, bottom branches and a bunch of other unwanted stuff.. I'm hoping that she thickens up fairly like some of her sister's in the tent 🤞 cutting off all the unwanted junk might help at least move more air at the bottom of the canopy.. at most it will help direct energy to other parts of the plant therefore producing a better flower. If she does fill out I'll have to support her side branches so they don't fall over. - Every day I rotate the plants in my tent so that the get to experience the light in different ways.

The genetics in this little lady are very good she stayed short.. All the stretching and bending are paying off right now she has a very nice even canopy .. Well we are gonna start to see some buds getting size now . Can't wait till next I also can't wait for the few bid sites I dusted with some male pollen ..

Been doing a lots of defoliation in this week(Especially on ETHOS-Lilac Diesel) and all the plant are looking great. Still waiting for the bloom fertilizer and then we will start flowering stage as soon as we received the fertilizers.

I can't believe it's already time! Everything is going perfectly as planned and smell is absolutely incredible. Super strong sweet funky smell... definitely a pleaser. Some of the buds you'll notice have multiple tops and are super wide. That's because I had topped the actual buds to see if it would get more growth on the sides. And sure enough it did. The buds on half of the plant got exponentially larger a tad bit of foxtailing but more density than anything. Great success will for sure do it in the future. overall I'm very happy this run

Day 51, 9th of November 2021: Hi there! Here we go the second week of flowering. This is the time really not much to say apart from the strech they are going through. Especially Spilff's Strawberry 🍓 she is crazily doing it. Not much changed maximum a bit more water intake for them. I could write ✍️ review each of them but nothing significant happening it is the transition stage anyways. So rather just post the current settings and facts basically it is just the same like last week when it started. ViparSpectra XS2000 is on full power which is 240W so 100% capacity. Ventilation is different as well under the 12 hours period when the lamp is on it switches 1 hours on and after one hour off mostly to keep the temperature and of course because of fresh air flow. When the lamp is off it switches on in every 2 hours for 15 min at the same time with the extraction fan. The extraction fan is on 12 hours when the lamp is, and then it switches on in every 2 hours for 30 min. That's all a bit more water for them from today also. Humidity quite the same approx 50%, temperature as well approx 26-27 Celsius. Fertilization remains the same since last week, the BioBizz family raised up to be 2ml/L each so it is like 2ml/L of BioGrow, 2ml/L of BioBloom, 2ml/L of TopMax... see the ratio above. The schedule of the fertilization has not changed happnes 2x a week except epsom salt just 1x a week.

Mandarin XL autoflower is growing great. She is really stalling on going into flowering, but it looks like she is gonna put her first pistils out at any moment. She started showing a big fluctuation in the ph. Which is also a sign I have noticed that she is shifting gears. She will get a solution change in the next few days. She looks super healthy on the Gen1:11 organo-mineral nutrition. I defoliated her and been keeping up on lst. Nothing else to report at the moment. Thank you Medic Grow, Gen1:11, and Ganja Farmer. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g
