Week 4 Veg Report: Croco Girls - The Mutant Chronicles 🌱 Hello Grow Fam! Week 4 of veg is here, and what a unique and eventful week it has been for the Croco girls! These funky mutants continue to surprise and amaze with their one-of-a-kind growth patterns. While the colder weather has introduced a few challenges, we’re adapting and thriving together. Let’s dive into the details! Environmental Updates: A Chill in the Air 🌬️ This week, temperatures in the grow room dipped to around 21-22°C, with relative humidity (RH) holding steady at 65%. While not drastic, this slight chill is enough to slow down growth a bit as the plants adapt. Cooler temps can encourage tighter node spacing, but they can also delay development slightly. Here’s how we’re addressing it: Proactive Monitoring: Keeping a close eye on temperature and RH trends to ensure they remain within optimal ranges. Gradual Adjustments: Slowly warming the environment with indirect heat sources if necessary, without shocking the plants. Remember, plants are incredibly resilient—and this slight delay will only make the Croco girls’ eventual growth even more rewarding. Feeding Updates: All in One Pellets & Organic Boost 🌾 This week marked a significant milestone: I introduced Aptus Holland’s All in One Pellets to the soil mix. Here’s how it went down: Preparation: Added a generous dose of the pellets to each pot. Soil Enrichment: Topped the pots with Pro Mix soil, bringing the total soil volume to 1 liter per plant. Feeding Transition: While I did one last watering with All in One Liquid, I’ll now rely primarily on: Regulator (0.15ml/L): To support stress resistance and strengthen cell walls. CalMag Boost (0.25ml/L): For calcium and magnesium supplementation, essential for strong stems and vibrant growth. Start Booster (0.25ml/L): To continue promoting robust root development. The combination of organic pellets and the Aptus liquid lineup ensures the girls have everything they need for a slow, steady nutrient release while maintaining microbial activity in the soil. Watering Technique: Bottom-Up Hydration 💧 This week, I switched to bottom-watering, a game-changer in preventing fungus gnats and promoting healthier root development. How It Works: Water is added to the tray, allowing the soil to wick moisture upwards through capillary action. Advantages: Reduces surface moisture, deterring gnats from laying eggs. Encourages roots to grow deeper as they seek water, resulting in a stronger root system. To further combat gnats, I’ve also placed yellow sticky traps around the pots. This dual strategy—bottom-watering and sticky traps—is already showing promising results. Mutant Marvels: The Funky Leaf Phenomenon 🍃 Each Croco girl is a masterpiece of mutation, with unique leaf shapes and growth patterns. No two plants are alike, and that individuality is part of what makes this grow so exciting. I’m patiently waiting for them to grow large enough to identify their sex. Here’s the plan moving forward: Option 1: Flip to 12/12 Temporarily: A one-week light flip to identify sex, then returning to veg. Pros: Fast and straightforward. Cons: Slight delay in veg growth. Option 2: Clone & Flip: Take cuttings from each plant, root them, and flip the clones to flower. Pros: Preserves the main plants in veg. Cons: Requires additional space and time for cloning. I’ll decide based on how the girls progress over the next week or two. Either way, I’m excited to unlock their potential. Photography: Capturing the Magic 📸 This week, I focused on showcasing the Croco girls’ beauty through a mix of macro photography and behind-the-scenes shots. Using both my Sony and Nikon cameras, I’ve been able to capture intricate details—from water droplet reflections to the delicate veining in their leaves. Why Use a DSLR/Mirrorless Camera? Greater sensor size allows for higher-quality images compared to even the latest smartphones. The ability to swap lenses provides flexibility for macro shots, wide angles, and close-ups. Depth of field and manual focus control ensure every shot is intentional and artistic. Lens Choices: Macro lenses (e.g., 90mm) for close-ups of leaf textures and water droplets. Standard lenses (e.g., 50mm) for portrait-style plant shots. While phone cameras like the latest iPhone can take great photos, they can’t quite match the level of detail, depth, and creative control a dedicated camera offers.

Last day of Veg. Tomorrow Start flowering

Week 5 Think I’ll do second topping next week

We wanted to try to experience the effects of global warming. We are from a Mediterranean area that has made it possible to grow the oudoor up to the winter, they are not as big as the summer ones but very very frozen and of a purplish color that they take with the evening swings that you cannot get in the summer. It looks like a Smoothie but it's a gorilla glue.

good flower

Tout se passe bien plus que 1 semaine et demi avant le rincage

This plant at week 4 was little bit stunned because she is getting all the cold and is stressed out,the fan hits directly into the plant.I was feeding all the plants same amounts of nutrients but this one didn’t handle it well so I flush her one time and at week 5 she got a lot taller and stronger 💪

Starting to notice some amber trichomes in certain areas of the flower. Decided to raise the light a few inches, defoliate a bit more and add only Ph balanced water. Thinking of another week tops and will look to harvest.

Chopped down the Blueberry Auto. Drying for 14 days if possible. Rh is at 50 temp is at 66° . Northern lights will have all the light hopefully she starts to swell up.

Gracias al equipo de Divine Seeds y XpertNutrients, sin ellos esto no sería posible. 💐🍁 Auto Opium: La semilla de marihuana Auto Opium de Divine Seeds es un híbrido resultante de la unión entre una variedad Afgana y una Canadiense, obteniendo una variedad autofloreciente feminizada más potente y productiva que se haya conocido. Genéticamente Indica prevalece en este genotipo, pero su brillante sabor y olor a bayas es la evidencia de la influencia Sativa. La concentración de THC de Auto Opium (28-29%) la convierte en la elección número uno para el comercio. Se recomienda a los cultivadores inexpertos. En el interior, Auto Opium da unos 1000 g/m2 de cosecha, mientras que en el exterior significa 300 g/planta. Los cogollos de marihuana de la planta Auto Opium saben y huelen a bayas, frutas exóticas y hachís. Este pesado efecto te golpea como un iceberg, y 2-3 horas se pasan normalmente sin moverse, acompañadas de cambios en la percepción. Un gran analgésico. 🚀🌻 Consigue aquí tus semillas: https://divineseeds.net/es/auto-opium/ 🍣🍦🌴 Xpert Nutrients es una empresa especializada en la producción y comercialización de fertilizantes líquidos y tierras, que garantizan excelentes cosechas y un crecimiento activo para sus plantas durante todas las fases de cultivo.

Ha sido un grow facil y divertido, hubiera sido mas grande si el tiempo hubiera acompañado durante la fase de crecimiento. El aroma es muy acido y la cantidad de tricomas es mas que considerable.

MB is amazing strain from exotic genetix ,great teast and aroma and very powerful (absolutely greasy) Heavy yield and bery strong genetics

She looks really good I prepared the soil with 200g of seaweed powder,kalong powder and also veg pearls, I love to grow the organic way

Woche 6 beginnt. Ich denke die Pflanzen füllen das Zelt jetzt gut aus und sind bereit für die Blüte. In ein paar Tagen werde ich die Pflanzen in die Blüte schicken. Ich bin gespannt.

So week 15 and she’s been chopped she’s is massive and she smells great the colour oof her is mesmerising I can’t wait to smoke her 🔥🔥🔥💨💨let these hang for 5 days then started removing buds from stalk and gave her a little trim I’ll leave her on nets for a few more days before putting her in jars it’s taken hours to get through these two plants some parts Easyer to trim than others buts it worth the hard work in the end the colours are amazing and the smell is ridiculous so sweet leaves my mouth watering the buds are very dense aswell very happy with her 🍒🍒🔥🔥🔥💨💨💨💨🍒🍇🍇

All going well upto now my estimate is another 3 weeks or so till harvest so i will see the diferrence in them this time next week an decide wether its time to start my 2 week flush or not, love how well these tropicana bannana and mimosa evo have grew from the start and it is a strain i will run again sometime given i enjoy the smoke, buds have formed really well and can tell they will all be nice and dense, see you next week for my latest update when we will be 1 week closer to the finish line 😁✌️👊

Lovely growth - LST going well. Note to self.....don't c*ck this one up!!!!

Day 1 soaked seeds for 18hrs. Day 2 seeds in dirt two seeds already popped in water and they where the auto's. Day 3 just keeping them moist and warm. Day 4 Northern lights came up and Great white shark came up. Watch these seeds sometimes the shell doesn't come off and you got to help it Northern lights shell was stuck and I took a tooth pick and helped it get it off. Day 5 Acapulco gold came up still waiting on Yumboldt auto and it had a tail on it when put in dirt.. Day 6 planted another Yumboldt auto seed directly in soil the other one was bad. So this one will be 6days behind others.
