💜 Purple CousKush Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A | Week 13 ✨
The Macro World Has Entered the Chat ❄️🔬💜
Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚
And this week...
I think we need to get a little closer.
😂
Because from across the room, Purple CousKush Pheno A already looks beautiful.
But then you pick up the camera...
You move closer...
And then closer again...
And suddenly...
OH MY GOD.
😂💜❄️🔬
The macro world is absolutely ridiculous.
The density.
The frost.
The trichomes.
The detail.
The way the flowers are packed together.
It's one of those moments where you think you already know what the plant looks like...
and then the macro lens basically says:
"No.
You have seen NOTHING yet."
😂📸❄️
And that's exactly what happened with this girl this week.
Purple CousKush Pheno A is shining.
But when we stop looking at her as a whole plant and start looking at the individual flowers...
WOW.
Just wow.
💜🌸❄️
────────────────────────
🔬 WEEK 13 – WELCOME TO THE MACRO WORLD
This week, the big story isn't really about the overall plant.
It's about what's happening inside the flowers.
Because from a normal distance, she looks beautiful.
But the closer we get...
the more impressive she becomes.
The flowers are dense.
The trichome coverage is incredible.
The resin production is absolutely catching my attention.
And the amount of detail packed into these little structures is just...
beautiful.
❄️❄️❄️
This is exactly why I love photography.
You can walk into the room every day and look at the same plant.
You know she's beautiful.
You know she's frosty.
You know she's developing.
But then you photograph her properly...
and suddenly you discover another world.
A microscopic little universe hiding inside the flowers.
And Purple CousKush is giving us a VERY nice view of that universe.
💜🔬🌸
────────────────────────
❄️ THE FROST IS NO JOKE
Let's talk about the obvious.
The frost.
😂❄️
Because this girl is absolutely covered.
When you're looking at the plant normally, you already see that beautiful frosty appearance.
But once we start moving into the macro world...
it's a completely different story.
Trichomes everywhere.
Structures covered in resin.
Little details that you simply cannot appreciate from a normal distance.
And that's what makes these photographs so satisfying.
You suddenly realize just how much is happening on every flower.
It's not just:
"Nice frosty plant."
It's:
"Wait...
HOW MUCH FROST IS ACTUALLY ON THIS THING?"
😂❄️💜
And then you zoom in again.
And somehow...
there's even more.
────────────────────────
🌸 DENSE. BEAUTIFUL. PACKED.
Another thing that's really catching my attention is the density.
The flowers aren't just visually frosty.
They're looking beautifully packed together.
There is so much structure happening inside these little flowers that the macro photographs almost make them look like completely different plants.
From across the room:
Beautiful flowering plant.
From close range:
A little forest of flowers, resin and trichomes.
😂🌿🔬
That's one of the things I love about this stage.
The plant has already built the structure.
Now we get to appreciate the details inside it.
And Purple CousKush Pheno A is giving us plenty of details to appreciate.
💜🌸❄️
────────────────────────
📸 THIS IS WHY I LOVE THE CAMERA
I honestly think photography changes the way you grow.
Not because the camera does anything to the plant...
but because it makes you LOOK.
Really look.
You stop.
You focus.
You examine.
You notice things you might otherwise walk straight past.
And when I start looking at Purple CousKush through the macro lens...
I can easily lose myself in there.
😂📸🔬
One flower becomes another photograph.
Another angle reveals another layer.
The trichomes catch the light.
The pistils create contrast.
The flower structure becomes almost architectural.
And suddenly...
I've forgotten that I was supposed to be doing something else.
😂
This is the kind of photography I really enjoy.
Not just taking a picture of a plant.
Actually exploring the plant.
────────────────────────
😂 I MAY HAVE MIXED UP THE STACKS
And now I have to confess something.
I may have mixed up some of the stacking photographs between Purple CousKush Pheno A and her sister.
😂💜
When you're dealing with this many photographs, this many merged stacks and two sisters developing alongside each other...
well...
sometimes the photographer becomes part of the experiment.
😂📸
So I'm dividing some of those beautiful macro results between this report and the next one.
And honestly?
I'm not even disappointed.
Because the funny part is...
both girls are looking absolutely incredible when we get close.
Both are showing amazing frost.
Both have beautiful flower structures.
Both are giving us those ridiculous trichome-covered macro views.
So even if I accidentally swapped a few stacks...
I know I'm not losing anything.
The next report will give her sister her own spotlight too.
And you'll understand exactly what I mean.
These two girls are absolutely worth getting close to.
💜🔬💜🔬
────────────────────────
👀 THE ROOM VIEW VS. THE MACRO VIEW
This is another thing I love about the 8×8 Adventure.
You can look at the room...
and see twelve plants.
You can look at an individual plant...
and see one phenotype.
Then you take a macro photograph...
and suddenly you're looking at something completely different again.
It's almost like three different levels of observation.
🌿 The room.
🌸 The plant.
🔬 The flower.
And each level tells you something different.
The room tells us how different the genetics are behaving together.
The plant tells us the phenotype's overall personality.
The macro photograph tells us what is happening inside the flowers.
And this week...
the macro world is winning.
😂💜❄️
────────────────────────
💜 PURPLE COUSKUSH IS STILL KEEPING ME CURIOUS
Even after all these weeks, I still find myself looking at this girl and thinking:
"What exactly are you going to become?"
😂
She continues to evolve.
She continues to develop.
And now that we're looking this closely, I'm becoming even more interested in the details.
The flower density.
The resin.
The trichomes.
The way the individual structures are developing.
Everything is becoming more pronounced.
And I don't want to force a conclusion.
I want to let her show us.
That's one of the most enjoyable parts of this entire project.
We start with genetics.
We provide the same general environment.
And then...
we watch the genetics speak.
Purple CousKush is speaking pretty loudly right now.
💜🌸
────────────────────────
🌿 SAME ROOM. DIFFERENT EXPRESSION.
And once again, we come back to the heart of the 8×8 Adventure.
Same room.
Same general environment.
Same lighting ecosystem.
Same overall nutritional philosophy.
Same 12/12 schedule.
Same grower.
And completely different expressions.
That's what makes this project so much fun.
You can't simply say:
"This is what the genetics do."
Because which plant?
Which phenotype?
Which individual expression?
The sisters can be right beside each other and still give us different stories.
And that's exactly what we're documenting.
Purple CousKush Pheno A has her own story.
Her sister has hers.
And now we're getting to see those stories in microscopic detail.
💜💜
────────────────────────
💡 SAME PHOTONS. DIFFERENT RESULT.
The lighting environment remains part of the same upgraded Future of Grow Black Series setup we've been running throughout the room.
The additional Black Series 600W fixtures continue giving the room more lighting capability and flexibility.
But once again...
the interesting part isn't simply the light.
It's what the plants do with it.
The same artificial sun shines over the room.
The same photons reach the canopy.
And then...
the genetics decide what happens.
Purple CousKush has taken those photons and turned them into this.
Flowers.
Density.
Resin.
Trichomes.
And an absolutely ridiculous macro subject.
😂☀️💜❄️
That's the experiment.
We provide the stage.
The genetics put on the performance.
────────────────────────
⚗️ THE BIG WORK IS STILL BEHIND US
And just like the previous weeks...
there isn't much for me to do physically with this girl.
And that's actually a good thing.
The major structural work has already happened.
The room is established.
The plants are established.
The flowers are established.
Now?
We maintain.
We observe.
We document.
And we let the plants continue doing what they already know how to do.
Sometimes growing means doing things.
Sometimes growing means making decisions.
And sometimes...
growing means standing there with a camera saying:
"Jesus Christ..."
😂📸
I'll happily accept that job.
────────────────────────
🔬 THE MACRO WORLD NEVER GETS OLD
I have to admit...
I really love macro photography.
There is something almost addictive about seeing these flowers at that level of detail.
You start looking at one trichome.
Then another.
Then the surrounding resin.
Then the flower structure.
Then suddenly you're completely lost.
😂🔬❄️
It's like entering another world.
And that's why I don't mind spending time with these photographs.
Because when you get a result like this...
it's not just documentation anymore.
It's appreciation.
You're looking at something the naked eye simply cannot fully appreciate.
And Purple CousKush is giving us a fantastic subject for it.
────────────────────────
📸 EVERY STACK TELLS A LITTLE STORY
One of the things I enjoy about stacking photographs is that it lets us capture details that a single frame simply can't communicate in the same way.
A flower isn't just one flat object.
It's depth.
Layers.
Different surfaces.
Different structures.
And when all of those little details come together...
you get an image that makes you stop.
That's what I'm seeing with these Purple CousKush photographs.
And honestly...
some of them make me want to keep going.
Another stack.
Another flower.
Another angle.
Another close-up.
😂📸
But eventually...
the camera battery wins.
────────────────────────
❄️ SUPER FROSTY. SUPER DENSE. SUPER BEAUTIFUL.
If I had to summarize the visual impression of this week in three words:
Frosty.
Dense.
Beautiful.
💜❄️🌸
That's it.
The flowers are looking fantastic.
The trichome coverage is impressive.
The density is becoming increasingly obvious.
And the macro photographs really bring everything together.
This is one of those weeks where I don't need to over-explain what I'm seeing.
The photographs are doing most of the talking.
And I love that.
Because sometimes...
you don't need a thousand words.
You just need to look closer.
🔬💜
────────────────────────
😂 THE PHOTOGRAPHER HAS A PROBLEM
And that problem is...
I keep wanting to photograph everything.
😂📸
You get one beautiful macro.
Then you think:
"Okay, that's enough."
Then you move the camera slightly.
"OH... wait."
Another photograph.
Then another.
Then another.
And suddenly you've spent far too much time staring at one flower.
😂
But honestly?
I don't mind.
Because this is one of the parts of the grow I genuinely enjoy.
The plants give us the subject.
The camera lets us explore it.
And the macro world gives us something completely different to appreciate.
────────────────────────
🌸 LET HER FLOWERS SPEAK
At this stage, I don't need to tell Purple CousKush what to do.
She's already doing it.
The flowers are developing.
The density is there.
The frost is there.
The resin is there.
The structure is there.
And now we're simply watching the final stages unfold.
That's the beautiful thing about reaching this part of the journey.
You start to see the result of everything that came before.
All the earlier decisions.
All the earlier growth.
All the earlier work.
Now...
we get to appreciate it.
💜🌿
────────────────────────
🔍 WHAT AM I WATCHING NOW?
At this point, I'm watching the details.
❄️ Trichome development.
🌸 Flower development.
⚖️ Density and structure.
💜 Overall expression.
📸 And, of course, whatever the macro lens decides to reveal next.
😂
I'm not trying to predict the ending.
I'm not trying to force a timeline.
I'm simply watching.
And enjoying.
Because this girl is giving me plenty to enjoy.
────────────────────────
👑 GIVE HER THE SPOTLIGHT
Purple CousKush Pheno A deserves her spotlight this week.
Not because something dramatic happened.
Not because we changed everything.
Not because she suddenly became a completely different plant.
But because...
when we looked closer...
WOW.
😂💜❄️🔬
Sometimes the magic isn't visible from across the room.
Sometimes you have to walk closer.
And then closer again.
And then put a macro lens in front of it.
And that's where the magic is.
So yes...
this week belongs to Purple CousKush.
Let's give her the spotlight.
Let's get close.
Let's appreciate the frost.
Let's appreciate the density.
Let's appreciate the trichomes.
And let's enjoy the macro world.
────────────────────────
💭 FINAL THOUGHTS — SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE TO LOOK CLOSER
Week 13.
Purple CousKush Auto.
Pheno A.
And this week...
I'm not going to overcomplicate it.
She's shining.
💜✨
She's beautiful from a distance.
She's even more beautiful up close.
And when we enter the macro world?
Absolutely ridiculous.
😂🔬❄️
The flower density.
The resin.
The trichomes.
The detail.
Everything is coming together beautifully.
And yes...
I may have mixed up a few of the stacking photographs between her and her sister.
😂
But honestly?
Looking at both girls closely has only made me more impressed.
So we'll divide the evidence.
Some beautiful macro shots for this girl.
And her sister will get her own spotlight in the next report.
Because both deserve it.
For now...
I'm simply enjoying this girl.
I'm enjoying the flowers.
I'm enjoying the photography.
I'm enjoying the macro world.
And I'm enjoying the fact that after all these weeks, Purple CousKush can still make me stop and say:
"Wow."
💜🌸❄️🔬
That's what I want from this adventure.
Not perfection.
Not predictability.
Discovery.
And this girl is giving us plenty of that.
So...
let her shine.
Let her keep developing.
Let her keep showing us what she wants to become.
And let's keep getting closer.
Because apparently...
the closer we look...
the better it gets.
💜❄️🌸🔬✨
────────────────────────

From the room...
to the plant...
to the flower...
to the macro world...
and suddenly:
WOW.
❄️❄️❄️
Super frosty.
Super dense.
Absolutely beautiful.
And packed with those little details that make photography so damn enjoyable.
So let's keep watching.
Let's keep documenting.
Let's keep getting closer.
And let's let the plant write the rest of the story.
The big work is behind us.
The flowers are doing the talking now.

After 12 weeks of flower this grow is FINALLY over It was a relatively easy grow as far as maintenance and feeding are concerned. Midway through the flowering cycle the smell became very loud and the buds were sticky and frosty. I would definitely grow this again especially since I have around 50 more seeds lol. I didn't add the wet weight of the plants because I never weight wet because it doesn't matter but I will post the dry weight for all of you when they're done drying.

Probably the last update before harvest. Could probably go now, but will wait a few days would like to see some amber. Despite the carbon filter, the whole house reeks. I see why people grow this specifically for resin because it's off the charts. I'm a vaporizer and edible guy, so we'll see. Just looking at this thing you can tell it's potent as hell. Hoping the lemon and melon terps hold true through cure. This plant is an absolute beast, I'm guessing high 20s pushing 30 THC%. Will update with harvest and post harvest thoughts (my guess is 7 to 8 oz out of a 2x2). She's on straight water to finish!

🌼🌸🌺Pre-flower🌼🌸🌺
23.06.25 | Day 56🌞💧
🔸This week I wanted to stress my sweetys as little as possible, so only a few photos from the tent. They are standing perfectly straight and I didn't want to break or snap anything off. They are doing great.
🔸I tried out my additional light this week and connected it to my controller. As soon as the flowering starts I will switch it on. I'll have to see how much distance I use this time, the lamps were too close to the plants during the last grow “Runtz” and that didn't look nice.
🔸Next week I will start giving her Big Bud as soon as the first buds appear.
🔸Poison Envy: Would say the stretch is not over yet, very slight hairs on the nodes can be seen...it's definitely all ladies :D She is now over 35 Cm so in a week she will be 10 CM stretch, let's see when she is ready.

KEVS_BEST Woche 7 – Erste vollständige Blütewoche & Stretch-Boost
Nach dem holprigen Start zu Beginn der Blütephase in Woche 6 konnten die anfänglichen Nährstoffmängel durch die verspätete Umstellung auf Canna Terra Bloom erfolgreich ausgeglichen werden. Die Pflanzen zeigten sich zu Beginn der ersten vollen Blütewoche wieder vital und reagierten mit kräftigem Wachstum auf die neue Nährstoffversorgung.
Der Stretch nahm nun richtig Fahrt auf – mit einem durchschnittlichen Zuwachs von bis zu 2,5 cm pro Tag. Die Internodienabstände blieben dabei kompakt genug, um eine schöne Struktur für die spätere Blütenentwicklung zu ermöglichen.
Dank stabiler Umweltbedingungen (ca. 26 °C bei Tag, Luftfeuchtigkeit unter Kontrolle) verlief die Woche ohne neue Zwischenfälle. Die leicht zuvor beobachteten Mängel verschwanden vollständig.
Die Triebspitzen begannen nun sichtbar, erste Blütenansätze zu entwickeln – weiße Stigmen zeigten sich deutlich, das typische Anfangsstadium der Sherbzooka-Blüte setzte ein.
ENGLISH
KEVS_BEST Week 7 – First Full Week of Flower & Stretch Boost
After the bumpy start into the flowering phase during week 6, the initial deficiencies caused by the delayed switch to Canna Terra Bloom were successfully corrected. At the beginning of the first full flowering week, the plants recovered well and responded with vigorous growth.
Stretch really kicked in – with daily growth rates of up to 2.5 cm. Node spacing remained tight enough to support ideal flower stacking later on.
With stable environmental conditions (around 26 °C daytime, humidity under control), the week continued smoothly without further issues. The previous minor deficiencies completely faded.
The top sites started to form the first clear flower sets – with visible white pistils marking the official beginning of the Sherbzooka bloom phase.

Welcome back to another thrilling update on our Lego Ninja Tropical Tangie Run. Week 7 has been an exhilarating journey of rapid growth and breathtaking canopy development. Our Tangie is proving to be an extraordinary ninja superstar!
Last week, we embarked on an exciting transplant adventure. Our fearless Tangie had outgrown her previous home, so we bravely transferred her to a spacious 25-liter fabric pot. With the assistance of Aptus Holland Mycor Mix, we ensured a smooth transition, providing her with beneficial mycorrhizal fungi. These underground helpers are like her very own ninja squad, supporting her root system and establishing a strong foundation.
To continue supporting her growth and development, we incorporated the incredible Aptus All-in-One Pellets into the soil. These pellets act as potent ninja power capsules, packed with essential nutrients. Each watering session delivers the perfect dose of nourishment, fueling our Tangie's journey to greatness. She's thriving with optimal health and vitality.
And let's not forget our loyal companions, the trusty Lego Ninja buddies. They have remained steadfast by our side throughout this green adventure, offering both moral support and an unwavering display of ninja vibes in the grow room. Who would have guessed that little plastic warriors could be such fantastic companions?
After the successful transplant, it was time to introduce our Tangie to the art of scrogging. We skillfully installed a scrog net, creating a framework for her to weave her way through. This setup resembles a challenging ninja obstacle course, encouraging her to grow horizontally and maximize her bud production. It's truly remarkable to witness her impressive moves as she gracefully and sexily fills up the space.
Of course, proper nutrition remains crucial for our Tangie's ninja training. Instead of using Aptus Holland Veg Watering Mix and All-in-One Liquid separately, we have now transitioned to solely relying on the pellets. These convenient premixed pellets integrated into the soil eliminate the need for additional liquid NPK. This simplification allows us to focus on other essential aspects of her training.
To ensure she remains pest-free, we have been diligently conducting leaf picking sessions, which also serve as an opportunity to check for any unwanted visitors. So far, our Tangie has passed with flying colors, and her vibrant 9-fingered leaves are a fantastic sign of her overall health.
As our Tangie continues her epic ninja journey, she basks in a PPFD of 600. These photons act as her loyal ninja training partners, stimulating robust photosynthesis and fostering explosive growth. With each photon absorbed, she becomes increasingly formidable, ready to take on any challenge that lies ahead.
In summary, Week 7 has been an absolutely exhilarating chapter in our Lego Ninja Tropical Tangie Run. The successful transplant, the magic of Aptus products, the support of our Lego Ninja buddies, and the installation of the scrog net have all played vital roles in our Tangie's remarkable progress. We owe a tremendous SHOUT OUT to Aptus Holland, Dutch Passion, and Grow Diaries for their continued support and exceptional products for the love and for it all, without them nothing we see here wold be possible.
Join us for the next update, where we will delve deeper into the fascinating world of ninja training techniques and witness the unfolding of our Tangie's extraordinary ninja powers. Until then, continue cultivating with joy, embrace the indomitable ninja spirit, and remember that every plant has the potential to become a botanical ninja superstar!
As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life<3 <3 <3

so far so good, keeping up with the hydrogen peroxide water, mould on the surface of the soil is non existent now :) Lowered its concentration down a bit, was free eyeing it in the jug before guessing it was about 10ml @3% per Litre, put it down to about 5ml @3% per Litre. Reason was I noticed some unique burning on the leafs of one plant then started to see it on a second, figured it was a direct result of to much peroxide as it only started a few days after its first introduction. The burning seemed to look like what happens when water droplets magnify the suns rays on a leaf during a hot summer day, brown and dry crinkly spots, mainly on the top fan baby leaves. thought it could be the LED's but i have had plants growing 1" away from them and they don't burn like that.
Funny thing happened as well where one plant lost some of its purpleness and another plant pick more purpleness up. Two of them are still green from day one, no sign of it turning anytime soon. green ones are in the back of the case, purpler ones in the front.
Also decided to give it one more blast of Gaia Power Bloom, made a mistake on the first time I added this one, was only 30ml added per plant not 60ml, will go back and correct that now in the diary, wanted to match the 4-4-4 Gaia All Purpose input to the 2-8-4 Gaia Power Bloom.
Had a fan malfunction, it use to keeping the tent as a steady 25c (77f), but when it broke temps went up to 35c (95f). I gave it a good hit and it started back up again. May die again before the grow is finished, not to worried about the increased temps if its only for part of a day. worst thing is it fully breaks and I prop the door open a bit. I feel autos do not like super hot or it can cause them to hermie or just stunt if its longer term. I think they do better in colder summer days in the 23c (73f) - 25c (77f) range, maybe a 28c (82f). but this may be more plant specific and have relation to its genetics. and with its higher temps I had to increase the watering for the day. got 50% more per plant per day.
The smell is there but not over powering, I notice it after spending anytime out side of the apartment, but does not leak into the surrounding units or common areas. Had a plant from Royal Queen Seeds before "Fast Eddy" and it made my entire deck reek of skunky weed. It was only one little auto outside, would hate that inside.
over all waiting for the buds to come into themselves more and get big, fat and sticky. Hoping this setup allows for that. Only time will tell or someone who really knows what they talking about could probably tell me right now lol :)

Harvest day - I save my harvest post for the yield results so I have one more to follow.
Beautiful grow though and really impressed with the yield and results. I typically only grow indoors, this is my first full outdoor grow with a photo actually. It definitely changed how I view growing seeing the plants react outdoors.
Also I’m in newly legal NY state and we would not be here today if it wasn’t for people like Jack Herer fighting for us at the most difficult times to do it. Jack was born in Buffalo, NY so this grow was a grow to pay homage to a man that led the way. This strain has also won the 2nd most cannabis cups behind only Skunk #1 a strain well deserving of the Jack Herer name.

Heute ist tag 10 in veg bei mir. Gestern noch mit mycos mix von glückspilze und bio vega von biocanna gegossen. Hammer mischung!! Über nacht fast doppelt so fetter stängel usw..... bin von dem echt überzeugt. Wenn man es zum richtigen zeitpunkt bei mischt. In der blüte würd ichs lassen. Da sehr viel stickstoff inside ist. Die cuts sind natürlich wie immer bombe. Sauber, stabil, getestet usw.... einfach top! Finden kann man diese wunderschönen stecklinge bei ROOTS_FARMS.

🌱 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!

BIG BIG apologies to Heather from fast buds & to Growdiaries & anyone who follows.
The past few months have been a massive struggle, not just with temperatures & growing weed but on a personal level.
My wife has been very poorly & with covid and everything going on, it's put a massive strain on us all!!
I've tries to maintain an active presence on Instagram but that's about all I've physically had time for.
I've put this update together today, so far into the grow now it almost seems pointless.
I lost my original Mimosa due to high temps & high RH. Moving into the attic at that time of year was a mistake. It has cost me a small fortune to keep things alive. I've had to purchase an air con unit, more fans & just more of everything to be honest.
My purple punch is almost ready to harvest, any time within the next couple of days, followed shortly by Bruce Banner & Kosher cake.
I wont be winning any awards for this Diary & I feel bad as I was supposed to be show casing what 420 Fast buds has to offer & I've failed...miserably.
I hope you can make sense of all the pictures I've included....just a mass photo frenzy over the past few weeks.
Thanks to everyone & all your comments.
Wishing you all the best.
One Love ❤️

week 7 I am having a troublesome time. I am feeding a litre a week per plant with nutes and a litre water 2 days after so 2 feeds a week to each plant I give 8ml sensi bloom part a and 8 ml part b to 1 gallon dechlorinated and ph at 6 water with 4ml carbo load 4ml sensizyme and 4ml overdrive and also some calmag in between feeds! I will carry on as I am but I need help! I don’t know why the fan leaves are browning and yellowing I have trimmed the plants of most dead/dying foliage after giving a feed and adding calmag I hope they will pick back up! I have added all photos from last update in order to date
