This week was a big week for the candy cush. I noticed upon watering her to run off, that in the same day the pot would go super dry and light weight. I also noticed stress in the leaves and roots poking out the bottom of the pot. It was time for a transplant. So far so good! Upon transplanting i performed more LST to help her fill in the pot. She went from a 1 gallon to a 5 gallon. She was also defoliated thia week.

This week i start to flush. i will harvest next week.

Update of week 2

Alle gekeimt! 😊👍

A week on and I have transplanted the girls from the nursery to the 15l pots. My main girl is doing well with leaf development and is coming to the second node of growth. One of the mutations is looking a lot better now and has a better shape to it. The third is still on the wild side but again I’ll stick with it and see what I get.

The hardest part of growing, is the time for harvest... I didn't do the norm, no 12/12 I do 10/14.. Do I harvest? I flushed her out, its only week 6 of flower, and I feel like there is plenty of time for these babies to bulk up... things are on cruise control, moon mintz is a 9 week flowering plant. She is looking absolutely BEAUTIFUL. This whole grow, except the hermie... has been a blessing. I love this plant, seeing my efforts going into these huge buds is very very amazing.

Better and bigger everyday! I have finally overcome my problems with nute burn. I create 1 gallon of the solution w/ no dilution, running full strength nutes, and this solution is lasting 1 week+ now. Then daily, fill 1 gallon with purified city water, with 1ml of Heavy 16 Roots for PH balance. Since I topped the 4 bagseed plants multiple times very early in veg growth, they are extremely short and bushy. But the flowering stretch seems to definitely be happening. Plus they have a ton of budsites being created. Still waiting to see what sex the 4 bagseed are. I have multiple close-up pictures of the 4 bagseed photos if anyone can see any signs of the sex? No PM or mites I can observe. Sprayed for them in week 5. Every day I am defoliating the lower branches of the plant as it becomes more obvious what isn't getting light. No smell. Bagseed were started from seed, germinated using paper towel method, and pretty neglected with light up until week 4. Also they spent too long in small containers before being transplanted. Unidentified genetics/sex. Clones were bought anywhere from 9 inches to 13 inches tall. But the clones have just really taken off in their larger pots. The Blackwater plant in the middle is the smallest clone of the three I received, and it was also filled with less dirt than the other 2, which are obviously taller an bushier. Anyone see anything else I should be doing?

Mentha de Croco – Week 18 from Seed | Week 7 Flower By Terpyz Mutant Genetics We’ve entered the final chapters of this mutant tale, and what a phenomenal story it has become. These girls are now drinking only water as they near the end of their flowering cycle, and they are doing so with elegance, uniqueness, and a presence that’s hard to put into words. Their structure is wild and bold, true to the mutant spirit, and this week we’ve witnessed them begin to cannibalize themselves, pulling in all internal resources as they approach harvest readiness. Their colors are shifting, their leaves are curling with purpose, and their energy is focused deep within the buds. Each phenotype continues to express in its own voice — no two look alike, and yet they sing together in perfect harmony. 🌿 And then there’s the terpene profile, absolutely outrageous! A heavy chemical note that feels like fresh nail polish, with a twist of gassy sharpness that fills the tent with that unforgettable “mutant funk.” It’s strange, beautiful, pungent, and… perfect. We’re not harvesting just yet, maybe next week, but the excitement is undeniable. This is the moment where patience and vision meet, and where every subtle change is a whisper from the plant saying: “It’s almost time.” 📣 Shout outs & gratitude: Infinite thanks to: 🌱 @terpyz_mutant_genetics for the freaks and the fun 💧 @aptus_holland for the precision and clean nutrition 💡 @futureofgrow for lighting up our garden 📊 @trolmaster.agro for full control and peace of mind 💚 And of course, all of YOU — the GrowDiaries fam, the supporters, the curious minds, the haters, the lovers.

Hi Guys, Grow Diaries for whatever reason won't allow me to upload my complete harvest video which is a real bummer because I mainly do the videos for my YouTube channel but decided to also include them on grow diaries to give other growers who might be considering growing the same strain in the future. Helps give people an idea of what to expect when they grow it. But honestly I can't be bothered to re-edit it to fit to Grow Diaries setting which I don't even know what they are.... Didn't think they had any! Maybe it's the length of my video..... 🤔! I don't know, but I like to give growers a good description of the strain and smoke review. I hate it when I go to others peoples pages to have a look at a strain I'm thinking of growing and them not having hardly any pictures that properly show you the growth stages of the plants.... Really annoying. Which is why I chose to properly document mine to give you guys or try to give you guys the best view of my grows..... If that makes any sense 😅 https://youtu.be/iYNiI75Vvkg That's the link for my channel guys, the complete King's Juice harvest review is there. Really sorry I couldn't provide a better aspect to the Harvest guys, but at least I know for next time and I will be prepared. 👍🏾

I changed my entire electrical installation which was starting to date. -I installed a 600w dimmable electronic ballast (+ 10% so 660w possible) -One pia Son-t-Pia greenpower 600W -An umbrella reflector, great reflector which lowers my heat in the box and efficiently distributes the heat of the Son-t-Pia on the sides. here Michka is really great. J'ai changé toute mon installation électrique qui commençait à dater. J'ai installé un ballast électronique dimmable 600w (+10% donc 660w possible ) Une ampoule pia Son-t-Pia greenpower 600W Un reflecteur parapluie, formidable reflecteur qui à fait baisser ma chaleur dans la box et répartit efficacement la chaleur de l'ampoule sur les côtés. Voilà Michka est formidable vraiment.

Work one of the two to bloom 👌

2 Girls 1 Cup week 8 is it?? Looks like GC is on week 4 still 🤣. Day 49- big defol on GC tonight, mild prune on the right side also. Few strategic plucks on WG to help share the light evenly. My fingers are sticky asf and STINK like lemon/lime and gas. Changed RES yesterday, modified week 3 GHE bloom medium feed. Breakdown as follows: 5 gal tap/RO 20mL calmag Micro - 26.5mL Grow - 26.5mL Bloom - 41mL RES totals after PH corrections - 1148 @ 5.63 ====================================================================================================================== Day 50- where to start.... fuck.. well, i was wondering if my TDS was accurate or not. never checked it against another meter until today... and lets just say its been OFF the whole damn time!! i tested it against two other meters. one cheapo from amazon, and one from a zero water pitcher. TDS reading from each in order from current>amazon>zerowater.. 930, 642, 616. checked online and they are all on the 500 scale. so i dialed the "current" meter back to 616 to match the brand new zero water meter. never really trusted the cheapo amazon one TBH.. went ahead and topped off with 1.5L and gave them a 1/1/2 mL shot of M/G/B to boost the RES numbers a bit. currently sitting at 662 @ 5.84. so i guess GHE calculations havent been anywhere near the ballpark like i thought. maybe they were using the same damn meter i have currently, set EXACTLY as far off as mine was from factory 🤣. IDKWTF happened there, but its a good thing i started light and worked up following their signs. even though the meter was off, it was still giving me information that was useable. should have left it where it was, but my OCD would haunt me until it was adjusted. plucked a few on WG tonight and left my fingers sticky and stinky. GC keeps stretching, refusing to hit full flower still.. Sorry Herbies, i know you all exaggerate the finish times... but come on now lol... theres no way this one would finish in the time they state online.. FastBuds Wedding Glue on the other hand... she may be short, but shes STOCKY. she'll just get fatter too. who knew i liked fat chicks?? ====================================================================================================================== Day 51- few plucks here and there on WG. have to be careful now because these leaves are what's going to last the next few weeks. Can't take too many, can't leave it closed up. Since I won't be able to flush, i may do a multi harvest on WG and give GC a lil more time to hurry TF up and do her thing. I hate waisting... anticipation is building for the end. Not only to see these girls come to a finish.. but to set up the new system "correctly". Using things learned in this experiment. ====================================================================================================================== Day 53- not much to report other than the typical random strategic plucks on WG and more abuse to GC. been adding a booster to the RES every other top off. Ends up being once a day. One top off calmag'd water, one calmag'd water with a 0/1/2mL (M/G/B) per L added. Gave em a .5mL bump of M today since I've only been boosting it with G & B for the last 2 days. *edit* my dumbass forgot to set timelapse interval from 3sec to 45sec and the vid is 1.8gb long.. going to just skip today's footage. ====================================================================================================================== Day 55- GC is trying to catch up from the looks of it. It's like 3 weeks behind schedule 🤣🤣. Was going to defol the shit out of it again, but may leave it for another day or two. Once it takes WG's sun, it's getting snipped again. Forgot to mention more GC abuse from yesterday, or the day before. Didnt take a pic so I'm leaving it up to my memory. kinda accidently, purposely, tripped and precisely stabbed the main with some pointy tweezers... about half way in, and may have accidently twisted a bit before and while pulling it out... oops.. what's a lil more stress on GC right?? Maybe I'll have to trip every so many days and see if it has a positive effect 🤣. Will try and snap a pic of GC main at some point. ====================================================================================================================== As always, thanks for stopping by and checking out my current grow experiment. Check back to see when I mess it up 🤣 check out the up to date timelapse from day 27 on @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZxJgAYve2s

Buds r maturing nicely and loads of colas on her. Tips of leaves r showing nutrient burn so I halved the nutes and will see how it goes. Think that terpinator sent it over the edge with all the other biobizz nutes too. It better make the buds stink!! Another couple weeks n she might be ready!

Bud forming so fast!!!!!! Comparing to previous plants I growth in witch I used biobizz light soil I changed kind of soil in this one I’m using canna professional and the different is quite noticeable I’m really satisfied. I was worried that the small box I’m growing in would eventually make the plant suffer but it’s totally not, the plant is responding well!! Started with the maximum dose of bud ignitor by advanced nutrient. I’m really exited for this lady can’t wait to se the beautiful complete resinous buds.. keeping growing with LOVE 💚

Hi everyone :-) This week the buds developed super ;-) All are beautiful 😍. Super genetics 👍. Blue Cheese pheno 1 is slowly coming to an end :-) This week I will start to use up the remaining nutrients and harvest in 10-14 days ;-) Everyone else needs something else :-) have fun with the videos, stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 🌱

The situation is starting to get super interesting also for our Zamnesia photoperiods, we have new and very different strains that are expressing themselves very well, Karen Kush, Test 1, Test 2, Cosmic Noodles and Runtz are already making my mouth water, it is the grass that I will be consuming during the magical Christmas and end of year periods, it must be done well to give me and those who are with me great trips. It is time to introduce you to two real monsters of size, I am having great difficulty keeping them under control, one forced me to change growbox because of how tall it was growing, monstrous internodal distance, giant leaves, guys with the XXXX test 2 we are in the Amazon. It is definitely one of those plants that if you do it outdoors it becomes bigger than the pine tree that has been there since you were a child. Never seen a plant grow like this, it seems like a slow flowering regular with the times of nature. I CAN SHOW OUT OF THE GROWBOX JUST THE TOPPED PLANT THE OTHER IS BIGGER THAN ME (190 ABOUT WITH THE POT) IMPOSSIBLE TO COME OUT TILL HARVEST. --- Plant 1- 3 flowering - You could see that it was a great plant from the beginning I said this is the one that makes the most impression in growth it was always ahead of all the others. Then slowly I realized that it would become a monster and I started to worry about the height. Now I can't do anything about it it's about 190 with the pot it's over 160 without from the trunk to the top and I can barely keep it in the 220cm growbox I don't know how to stop it I'm fimming even at the beginning of flowering because I don't know where to put it. My god it's huge it has a distance between internodes of about 12 cm I have to measure it better, monstrous sunbathing leaves and ALL THIS IN AN 11 LITRE POT. It's a plant to grow with indoor topping, do it and you won't have to drill holes in the roof of the growbox like I'll have to do soon. The negative side, if we can call it that, is that it's a bit slow in flowering, so let's wait 10/12 weeks, the classic 8 don't seem to be going well, here we are at the first hairs, the others are already very advanced. --- Plant 2 - fortunately I decided to do topping once, not as I like in the main lining style, but at a certain point I cut the center and left other branches at the bottom, the result here is still beyond the lines of the average size but it is more manageable. Always very healthy and slow in flowering, like regular, let's see how long it takes them. ---- Fertilization program - The two plants are super voracious, they both drink 2 liters a day of the fertilization program at the beginning of flowering of the personalized Plagron card. Food / Very voracious plant beware / - Alga Bloom - 4 ml/l - Power Roots - 1 ml/l - Pure Zym - 1 ml/l - Sugar Royal - 1 ml/l - Power Buds - 1 ml/l --- The dehumidifier now works between 50% and 55% --- You can find the 100% Organic Plagron package on Zamnesia at the link: https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11457-pla gro n-easypack-natural .html // Strain Description // Strain coming soon! - Buy this Strain — Strain still not released choose another on www.zamnesia.com - Fully organic soil and fertilizers --- https://plagron.com buy at www.zamnesia.com - Music and sound --- I made my girls listen to 432hz frequencies and black music from www.radionula.com - Z --- You can find these seeds, much more from the world of cannabis, mushrooms and an incredible series of accessories and gadgets on the reference site not only mine but of many growers ---- https:// www.zamnesia.com

Week 10 - Second Week of Flowering 🌸 As week two of flowering begins, the garden’s growth is unstoppable! These ladies are thriving, stretching up while staying beautifully vibrant and green. Every inch of this tent is optimized—each plant is soaking up light, nutrients, and water precisely as they need, filling the room with energy. Room Conditions 🌡️ • Temperature: 27.3°C • Humidity: 62.6% • CO₂ Levels: 800 ppm • VPD: 1.36 kPa (excellent range for robust flowering) • Lighting Intensity: 818 PPFD Solution & Medium 💧 • Solution Temp: 21.5°C | TDS: 470 ppm | pH: 6.02 • Medium: Moisture 100% (recently dried to 67%), TDS 510 ppm, Temp 22.5°C The “dry-out” to 67% was a strategic move, helping boost nutrient uptake and root strength. Meanwhile, our slight increase in reds seems to be having the desired effect, nudging these ladies further along in the flowering process. Eye Safety & LED Lighting 🌞🕶️ With powerful LED systems like the ThinkGrow and ICL-300, eye protection is critical. LED grow lights emit high-intensity light across the full spectrum, including intense UV and infrared components that are not easily detected by the human eye. Long-term exposure without adequate protection can lead to eye strain, and in extreme cases, damage to vision. • Blue Light Hazard: LEDs often have elevated levels of blue light, which can harm the retina over time if proper precautions aren’t taken. • UV Protection: Even low doses of UV can accumulate and harm eyes, so grow glasses with UV protection are essential for any indoor gardener. Investing in quality grow room glasses can help protect from glare, UV, and infrared rays, making plant care safer and more comfortable. Lighting Enhancements: ICL-300 In-Depth 🔆 The ICL-300 is our newest addition, specifically designed for inner canopy illumination. This LED offers a targeted light boost under the canopy, enhancing flower growth in lower and shaded areas—ideal for maximizing yield and light efficiency. • Dual Spectrum Technology: The ICL-300 provides a custom spectrum designed to penetrate deeper into the plant canopy, promoting robust bud formation throughout. • Enhanced Light Distribution: With strategically positioned diodes, the ICL-300 reduces shadowing and balances light distribution to all parts of the plant. • Energy Efficiency & Heat Management: This light is designed to be energy-efficient, running cooler and reducing the risk of heat stress within the grow space. The inner canopy light gives the plants exactly what they need, particularly during the flower stage when bud sites deep in the canopy can benefit from more direct exposure. However, after noticing slight leaf burn on some plants, I’ll hold off a bit longer before fully integrating this light to ensure optimal adjustment. Looking Forward 🌟 As we continue dialing in conditions, it’s all about balance, precision, and taking proactive steps to optimize every aspect of the grow environment. We’ll keep a close watch on the canopy height, and next week, I’ll aim to fine-tune the light integration even further with the ICL-300. P.S. - ICL-300 and CO₂ Sensor 🌱 The TrolMaster CO₂ Sensor (MBS-S8) has been crucial for real-time CO₂ adjustments, ensuring the plants get exactly what they need without constant monitoring. Combined with the ICL-300’s spectrum flexibility, these tools make an unbeatable setup, allowing for nuanced control over plant growth and development. As always, a huge thanks to the Grow Fam for the tips, support, and enthusiasm! I’m excited to see what these next weeks will bring as these plants reach their full flowering potential.

The thrips infection is gone but there’re still a lot of damaged leafs as you can see in the photos/videos, but the growth hasn’t slowed down which is good. Anyway after I did some research into the big bang strain I found out that the company that sells this strain recommends “flushing” for a few days every other week starting from day 16 of flowering. This is meant to speed up bud development and I think it really did something here as the buds got twice as big. But I didn’t exactly follow their recommendations as it calls for watering the plants with large amounts of water and letting the soil dry for a few days and I don’t feel comfortable with that, so I watered them every day but made sure the soil was dry.
