Week 8 Veg Report: Mentha de Croco Mutants 🌱✨ Welcome to another exciting update in the Mentha de Croco mutant run! As always, these beauties continue to surprise and captivate with their unique growth patterns and stunning individuality. Let’s dig into the details of this week! 🌟 Growth & Development This week marks a turning point for the girls! While their slow but steady growth continues, I decided to top a few of them. Why? Topping not only encourages bushier growth but also allows the untopped plants to catch up, creating a more balanced canopy moving forward. Each one is still showcasing those jaw-dropping unique traits that make this run feel like a gallery of natural art. The Mentha de Croco mutants truly live up to their name, with each leaf telling its own story—some broad and serrated, others narrow and elongated, all equally breathtaking. Watching them evolve week by week is a lesson in patience and appreciation for the beauty of diversity in nature. 🌡️ Environmental Conditions Good news on the environmental front! The room’s temperature has stabilized to a more comfortable range, with daytime temps at 22°C and RH steady at around 66%. These are near-ideal conditions for vegetative growth, helping the girls to stay happy and stress-free. The stable climate contributes to the vibrant health and vigor they display—always praying to the lights like the champions they are! 💧 Feeding & Nutritional Care Nutritionally, we continue with the tried-and-true regimen: • Aptus Regulator 🌟 • CalMag Boost • Start Booster I’ve completely transitioned to using the All-in-One Pellets, which are doing a fantastic job of delivering slow-release organic nutrition directly in the soil. The decision to stop liquid feedings with the All-in-One Liquid was the right move, and it’s clear the girls are loving the steady supply of essential nutrients right at their roots. Additionally, I’ve been sticking to bottom-watering. Filling the trays and allowing the soil to wick up moisture not only ensures the roots get what they need but also keeps pesky gnats at bay—especially when paired with yellow sticky traps. This method has made a noticeable difference in keeping the grow area clean and pest-free! 🛠️ Cultivation Techniques: To Clone or Flip? The big question of cloning or flipping still hangs in the air. I’m taking my time to observe and assess their progress. Each plant is so unique that I want to give them the space and time to reveal their full potential before deciding. Let’s touch on the two potential strategies for next steps: 1. Flipping to 12/12 for a Short Period: This would allow me to determine sex quickly, but it can stress the plants slightly. 2. Cloning: Creating clones and flipping them instead is a great way to preserve the integrity of the main plants while identifying males and females without disrupting their growth cycle. Both approaches have their merits, and I’m leaning toward cloning once they’re big enough to snip without harm. 📸 Photography Corner: Highlighting Details This week, I brought out the cameras again—my trusty Nikon and Sony with interchangeable lenses—because, let’s face it, phone cameras just don’t do justice to the intricate beauty of these plants. Whether it’s the textures of the leaves or the play of light on the water droplets, having the right lens makes all the difference. For close-ups, I used a macro lens, which allowed me to capture every vein and serration on those incredible mutant leaves. For a wider perspective, I switched to a standard lens to showcase their overall growth. These tools help me highlight the artistry in each plant and share it with the world. 🙌 Shoutouts & Gratitude A heartfelt thank you to the amazing brands and communities that make this journey possible: • Terpyz Mutant Genetics 🌱 – For these one-of-a-kind mutants that redefine what’s possible in cultivation. • Aptus Holland 💧 – For providing the cleanest organic-mineral nutrition line that keeps the girls thriving. • Pro Mix – For the top-notch soil that’s the perfect foundation for this grow. • Future of Grow (FOG) 💡 – For the incredible Black Series lighting that ensures every photon counts. • Trol Master – best controls in the market, and i have all the data to back it up . • Grow Diaries 📖 – For giving us growers a platform to document and share our journey. • The Community 🌍 – To everyone who follows, supports, and engages—haters and lovers alike.

The finish!!

G13 is doing really good under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2, with the Athena blended line nutrition. I did a solution change a few days back. As I was concerned I was running too strong too soon then. I also added a little blackstrap molasses to solution today. Was about a tablespoon worth I added. The colas are starting to bulk, and I have been doing a selective defoliation when needed. She is drinking a lot, and eating good. I also added a little more pk to solution. So hopefully she takes it good, and bulks the best she can. Thank you Athena, Medic Grow, and Weed Seeds Express. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Hi everyone ! buds are fatn up well 😍 some of them are huuuge, lot of pistils and snow 😁 !! smell is stronger now ^^ See you next week

👨‍🚀This week I continue to defoliate the lower branches. from the beginning I have been making different cuts on each plant Some of my noris cakes did not appreciate the defoliation that I did to them, I must admit that I did that like a bloodthirsty butcher on one of them... 👹I have at least one that is developing well but for the other 2 I notice a slowdown in their growth With supports I start trying to balance the height of all my plants so that they are approximately the same distance from the lamp First time that I have grown so many plants in my 1M², first time that I have not cut the main apex of the plants. I try a lot of things in this culture and it is certain that there is a lot to improve.😉 ------------------------------------------------------------ 💧Watering On average I water each pot with: Day 36 : 0.75 Liters Day 40 : 0.75 L I use tap water, adjust the ph to around 6 and water 💧Spraying I mix a little black soap and neem oil in 1L of water and spray everything in the tent just before my lights go out, keeping any electrical appliances away while I spray. I try to soak all the plants. and I repeat this 2 times this week and the next before the buds appear. I do this to keep pests away and reduce the risk of mold. ------------------------------------------------------------ 🔥❄️Temperature of the week : Day : 19-23°C (Humidity : 60-75%) Night : 16-18°C Outside the tent it is around 17°C with 70% humidity ------------------------------------------------------------ 🚀Equipment of the week ⭐️ : It's starting to smell a little too green in my house, I'm adding my carbon filter this week Light FC3000 Mars hydro. power 95% at 45cm Extractor 6 inch Mars Hydro + carbon filter . power 3/10. ON 24/24h 1 oscillating fan, on 45 minutes / off 15 minutes in loop (I reduce its use at night) ------------------------------------------------------------ 📜Links : Nori Cake seeds 🌱 : https://shop.greenhouseseeds.nl/feminised-cannabis-seeds/nori-cake/ Mars Hydro : 5% off with my discount code "houstone5" 💪 https://www.mars-hydro.com/?acc=hou-stone 👨‍🚀My Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/hou_stone420/ ------------------------------------------------------------ ☮️Peace💚

Woche 10 Grow Diary Mimosa x 🍊👊🏻 Barney’s Farm So ihr lieben, beide Damen sind nun geerntet und damit geht dieser Grow offiziell zu Ende. Es hat wirklich extrem viel Spaß gemacht diese Sorte anzubauen und ich kann sie absolut weiterempfehlen. Gerade gegen Ende von Woche 9/10 kamen nochmal richtig schöne Farben durch, die Blätter wurden immer pinker und selbst die Stämme waren teilweise komplett rosa verfärbt was das Ganze nochmal brutaler aussehen lassen hat. Die Buds sind schön frostig geworden und insgesamt lief der Grow echt entspannt durch. Ein riesiges Dankeschön an Barney’s Farm für die Teilnahme an diesem Grow und natürlich auch danke für den ganzen Support während des Runs. Der nächste Grow wird dann mit Genetik von Green House Seed Co. weitergehen worauf ich schon extrem gespannt bin. Happy Growing Growmies 🌱💚

Flush process plan water 💦

Day 36 LST complete yesterday, side branches are tied down For this plant, I am letting it grow straight up like I grew Fastbuds Bruce Banner This looks very much like Bruce Banner which is very exciting because Bruce Banner still remains tied with Pineapple Express for the most face melting autos ive ever grown PPM are very low, I will be only tripart, there is enough Silicate sediment, and Cal Mag in the pool, leafs are very green The plant is showing its female sex organs, and is approaching the flowering stage Day 37 Expansive growth everywhere The pool will be changed tomorro for pre-flowering nutrients Day 38 Pre-flowering nutrients are installed, all is looking well posted a video for the week her leaves are very thick and mature. The leaves on the stem, the large fan leafs, have the hardest stems ive felt on an autoflower. This is certainly a new generation of Autos from 2 years ago, the smell is becoming very nice Day 39 I removed some more bottom brush from the plant, all those runt limbs that will only be larf are gone. I also removed one of the first limbs that was a runt. This strain loves to be pruned, this is its 2nd bottom clear out and she always comes back with so much growth, now the top colas can all form nicely without the bottom waste DWC very healthy, she is drinking about 3 litres a day right now I am using a 1/2 strength pre-flower blend. It's the TA bottle measurements just cut in half. Ive purposely not let this one go above 800ppm due to Fastbuds advice that this one is particularly sensitive to nutrients. Day 40 Growth explosion, everywhere has expanded The leafs are very mature, slender Sativa traits Uploaded some macro shots of the preflowers, they are very healthy Day 41 Everything is going well, she is growing fast Day 42 Huge increase in growth overnight, and she is drinking about 3 litres a day right now This is thepreflower stretch phase

See the buds already on week 1 in flower

I added a humidifier this week to the tent to stabilize humidity.This addition is working great at the moment. The plants showed signs of decent growth in there new home early in the week so I decided to top them. After a couple of days from there topping they are starting to take off with growth.I hope I can cut some clones in a couple weeks and than we will head into flower.Growth is in full effect as you can see by the video. Lowering my PH to 5.5 seems to have quelled the cal-mag deficiency I had in the cups.The bounce back from transplant shock was great this week. I was able to top them on schedule and all are reacting well.

F39: if everything keeps going at this pace it should be done in about 15-20 days. Shes not expanding as much now, the leaves are fading, getting stickier and smellier.

The plants are not fully in the same stage, but most started getting milky trichomes so I decided to flush. Roughly 3-4 times the usual amount of water. Ph to 6.2 and a lot of run off water. Never experienced with flushing so here goes nothing. I will try and cut all the plants at the same time. The trichome development will be at different stages but this might be a good way to see what trichome stage I like most, and I will be able to decide better in future grows. To be honest I'm not looking for highest possible THC content ;) Taste/smell are priority.

Overall this plant was great to grow, she just grew and was happy doing it the entire time, pretty good yield off a plant that was only about 12inches tall. Seemed to be a lot more resistant to deficiencies then the other two strains this grow. Definitely a great mid-day Smoke!

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 27/02/2020 - Gave her 1.5l of RO water.

Wie auch bei der guava runtz, Zucker Zucker Zucker! Ebenfalls sieht es hier langsam so aus als würde sich der Stretch dem Ende neigen. Die guava sunday ist eindeutig luftiger und hat viel viel mehr kleinere untere Triebe im Gegensatz zu der runtz. Das das wird mir auch beim entlauben und lollipoppen sehr viel Arbeit bescheren aber die Arbeit wird sich lohnen. Faszinierend ist aber dass die beiden total unterschiedlich im TerpenProfil sind. Die runtz kommt eindeutig stark fruchtig daher mit subtilen untern Tönen. Während hier die sunday mit einem sehr cremig erdigen Profil daherkommt und er mit subtilen Reifen guava untertönen unterlegt. Vielleicht sogar leicht skunkig? Ich bin auf die Ernte und auf die erste Verkostung gespannt bei dieser Unterschiedlichkeit schon allein vom Profil her. 🤤

Day 29: LST is done. I set the lamp approx 36 cm away. BlackBerry Kush, LSD-25 started flowering. All of them are OK started growing rapidly. 600W LED, 20 hours on 4 hours off the same with ventilation. Water intake: 75 ml per plant plus triggering, humidity around 60 percent. Fertilization is on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday with BioBizz family, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday bat guano and Epsom salt. Day 30: I did LST again. I didn't have enough elastic band yesterday so I bought today and bent them better. I also set the lamp closer approx 34 cm. Day 31: I did LST yesterday and bent them. They already "lifted up" their heads toward the lamp. As they grow I will keep bending the main stalk and the side ones. I will try to create a spiral form and spread the plants with time. Day 32: Most of them started flowering except Colorado Cookies. BlackBerry Kush aggressively started floweing. This plant is very strong and aggressive. Day 35: pre flowers nicely coming along.... Balckbeery Kush and LSD-25 are the quickest. I changed the lamp as it is now really good.... so I placed an other 600W lamp there. I will swap these lamps one week here other week there. I will change that lamp after harvest. End of the week the tallest is BlackBerry Kush with approx 25 cm (I bent them so can't give perfect measurement) and the shortest plant is approx 18 cm.
