First pic is showing off some of the stretch that has occurred. We start “Above the Stakes”this week. -Sun 10th; it looks like the R plant is making a solid effort in its Stretch, which has just begun & is really happening. The L plant is flourishing and nearing the end of its own stretch. There is an image of the pair with 3’ showing on a tape measure as reference. Jan 11 Good things are happening as the circle of branches starts fill in ! ** as a side note, the Uv-B is going back on for 6hrs a cycle (3+3) after some more reading and the recent stretch action from the plant on the R. Nothing wrong with a weeks delay in nature between sisters & UV-B sounds like solid tech. Power is on again ** - Dinner-time after 4 days. - Hole drilled in overhead corner-bracket, to help Centre the Light. - Plants have been rotated a bit, LST (lashing-some-timber lol) re-positioned a bunch of branches/stakes, meshing the two plants together, in the middle. nuf snapshots. details as the week-ends. -Nutrient ratios are Max’d as the volume will continue to climb for 2 more big feeds. -rapid-start & cal/mg have already been dialed back a bit. My watering volume per/24hr now shows my water use in metric. That # is based on the last 2 meals and I’m now looking at 5 days without nutes... 14th, Steady progress all the way round. Moving lights and supports as needed. Reach continues on the Right plant, while the Left continues to look amazing -molasses in next feed (Sat), TDS to be updated 15th -the volume of water my plants have been receiving, has been larger each of the last 4 feedings. Extra time between feeds has been allotted and watering based on Pot weight/dryness is keeping the plants Full and Green. -The next feed will be half the volume of the last one. The goal tomorrow (day 5 since last feed) is to immediately satisfy the plants nutritional needs with a small meal (7 litres/2), but then it’s going to scream for more food. This time I will wait only 2 days and return to the larger volume and a 4-5 day cycle. That’s the plan. Goal was to raise both the volume and demand for more nutrients. (Without creating a swamp) It’s been kind of patchwork getting the numbers-up, and this is the first pause in that steady climb. Both plants seem to be firing in all cylinders. Sun Jan17 - adding Molasses to each feeding from Week 5 on in to harvest. - 2 days since last half-feed. Big feed tonight and 5 day gap next. -Reached my Max H2o volume with solid Nutrition #’s. Plan is to hold levels for week 5/6 and then begin to taper nutes & volume slightly in 7/8 and hold till flush (11) & harvest (12/13) ** this grow is my best effort yet, if anybody sees or feels it’s getting “sideways”... I would love to hear about your opinion/concerns. ** The buds that are forming, actually have some substance to them. Tired of Indoor Popcorn. This grow is hapnin

En esta ocasión tenemos algunas plantas más grandes que otras, tenemos las red hot cookies miden 17 y 20 cm. Las tropicanas 15 y 20 cm y la purple punch og 16 cm. Vamos a hacer una agua con concentración de 1.35 para las grandes y de 1.2 para las que son un poco más pequeñas. Seguimos con un ph de 5.8 y se va notando ya la corrección de las carencias iniciales.

All appears well with these Ladies 😸 All the plants are continuing to develop at a steady rate, some a bit better than others 🤷‍♂️ They all smell amazing! They are all very similar, but not the same. The three main aromas I’m smelling are citrus, cherries and gas. They are all continuing on the same nutrient feed as last week and appear healthy. Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚

🌿 Week 7 Veg Report: Terpyz Mutant Mentha de Croco 🌿 Hello, Grow Fam! We’re now into Week 7 of this exciting adventure with my Terpyz Mutant Mentha de Croco ladies, and what a week it’s been! The theme for this week? Patience and appreciation. These girls continue to grow at their own pace, each one showcasing their unique traits and incredible beauty. Week Recap: Slow and Steady Wins the Race The girls are still on the slower side in terms of growth, but that’s part of their charm. Each leaf is a masterpiece, more intricate and stunning than the last. Their prayer posture remains consistent—a true testament to their health and contentment in their environment. They may be taking their time, but their vitality and uniqueness shine through every step of the way. Environmental Conditions: Keeping Things Balanced This week has been about maintaining a steady environment despite the natural slowdown in growth due to cooler temperatures. • Temps: Daytime 18–20°C, nighttime 14–16°C. It’s a bit chillier than usual, but these resilient ladies are adapting beautifully. • Humidity: Stable at 65%, ensuring the girls remain hydrated and comfortable. • Airflow: Gentle but constant to keep the space fresh and prevent any stagnant air pockets. Feeding Program: Aptus Holland Perfection Feeding remains consistent, and the girls are loving the organic-mineral lineup from Aptus Holland. Here’s what’s in their mix this week: • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L – To strengthen cell walls and increase stress resistance. • CalMag Boost: 0.25 ml/L – For robust development and prevention of deficiencies. • StartBooster: 0.25 ml/L – Enhances early vegetative growth and root systems. The switch to All-in-One Pellets last week has eliminated the need for liquid All-in-One, and the girls seem to be thriving with this natural, slow-release food source. Watering: A Gnat-Free Approach This week, I continued with bottom watering. Filling the trays and letting the soil absorb the water has been a game-changer—not just for healthy root development but also as a part of the war against gnats. Paired with yellow sticky traps, this strategy has kept pests in check while ensuring the roots get all the hydration they need. Growth Observations: Slow but Stunning • Structure: The slow growth might test patience, but the payoff is worth it. The compact, vibrant structure of each plant is breathtaking. • Leaves: Dark green, uniquely shaped, and full of character. Each girl is like an artist’s brushstroke—no two alike. • Praying Posture: Their leaves reach for the skies like they’re soaking up every ounce of light. Still no cloning or flipping to 12/12 yet, as I want them to grow a bit more before making any big moves. Next week, I’ll decide whether to flip them for a brief period to determine sex or wait until cloning is feasible. Photography Spotlight: Capturing the Details This week, I took some time to immortalize their beauty with my Sony A6000 and Nikon DSLR cameras. The intricate details of their leaves, captured through different lenses, reveal their individuality. 📸 Photography Tip: • Cameras like my Sony and Nikon bring out fine details you’d never see with a phone camera. The larger sensors, interchangeable lenses, and manual controls allow for stunning clarity and depth. • Macro lenses, in particular, are fantastic for close-ups, like capturing water droplets or vein details in leaves. The difference between these and even the best phone cameras (like the latest iPhone) is night and day when it comes to quality and creative control. Looking Ahead: What’s Next? As we move into Week 8, I’m hoping for an uptick in growth speed, but I’m perfectly content to let these beauties take their time. The journey is just as rewarding as the destination, and these girls are proof of that. Shout Outs & Gratitude A massive thank you to: • Terpyz Genetics for these exceptional mutant seeds. • Aptus Holland for their top-tier nutrient lineup. • Future of Grow (FOG) for lighting that keeps these ladies praying. • Pro-Mix Soil for providing the perfect growing medium. • TrolMaster for environmental controls that make my life so much easier. • Grow Diaries for the platform to share this incredible journey. • And, of course, all of YOU—followers, supporters, and even the haters—for being part of this adventure. Your feedback, encouragement, and interaction mean the world to me. 🌟 If you’re curious about the journey, feel free to check out my Instagram and YouTube for behind-the-scenes content, photos, and more! Until next week, stay positive, stay curious, and as always: Growers Love! 💚 Genetics - Mentha De Croco https://terpyz.eu/products/menta-de-croco-fern-type?_pos=1&_sid=e9237cbcb&_ss=r DogDoctorOfficial Discount Codes @ terpyz.eu - DOCTOR 15% off Nutrition - @aptusholland https://aptus-holland.com/ Led Power @ F.O.G.

Lovely lady... but getting a little weird in that I've had to reduce her EC several times... I guess she just doesn't LIKE a whole lot of nutes! It's been a struggle this past week trying to get the pH and EC balanced out so they're both stable... and it ALWAYS happens to me about this time in each grow. Some year, I'll figure it out - until then, I'll remain a bit frustrated! LOL! Toying with the idea of doing more "defoliation" to get rid of what I KNOW will be larfy buds... even though I haven't officially "scrogged" her, I've used LST to essentially produce the same results so I'm planning to do a little lollipopping on her... might as well be today! Sorry I haven't been keeping up this diary in the manner I had been... I've got a lot of idiot things going on in my life. If you ever have questions about what I'm doing or not doing with this grow, just DM me and I'll try to explain.... :-D 03/28 .... ok, she's now officially driving me bonkers. Wild pH swings even while the EC holds steady... I can't figure out what she wants at all but we continue to talk to each other... I'll figure out her language soon enough! She's going through a massive stretch period now which might be the cause of all the drama going on inside the bucket... just SHOOTING up and looking fine even if the numbers aren't what I would call happy. Gave her a pretty decent haircut just before she started stretching and I'm glad I did... so many more buds are now getting full light and I've got the canopy where I want it... Might have to do some more LST down the line if she gets much closer to the lights although I DO still have some room to move them up (thank god I got a taller tent!). She's taking her nap right now so I'll post more pictures when she wakes up.... OK... new pics are up as is a video...

*Week 4 Flower 09/24* Both Mimosa girls appear to be running fine with Mimosa (1) running a little behind but is catching up accordingly. Small oversight in early growth resulted in a minor stunt but she is improving dramatically. Water Feed has increased by half a gallon ( 1gallon clean - .5 gallon nute feed) *Week 4 Flower 09/28 - Mid week update* Both plants are flowering accordingly - Mimosa (1) is a bit taller then Mimosa (2) Buds are becoming dense and covered in trichomes. No deficiencies - No areas of concern - Potassium and Phosphate feeds continue *Week 5 Flower end of week recap - 09/30* Both Mimosa's are flowering nicely - Budsites covered in frosty trichomes. Mimosa (2) looks shorter but that is because her COLA was tied down to expose bottom budsites.

Week 5 of flowering It’s growing 😂 There’s not much to do, keeping an eye on the leaves helps me to tell if it still needs some nutrients or just water. I’ve been able to readjust the lack of Cal on 2 plants (Strawberry Kush) unfortunately 2 others plants (1 Super Skunk and 1 Banana Kush) were too deficient to catch back. I wish the Super Skunks were a bit more Indica. They are typically Sativa phenotypes, at 80% I would say, second time it happens in 3 years with this batch (ART. 1520007 , B19). Normally they’re perfectly balanced and produce plenty of massive colas in a very short period. 1 of the White Gorilla Haze is making proper dark purple flowers, it’s a very nice pheno. I will add more bud porn on next week 😊 (I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control)

Welcome MJ lovers We are here today for final thoughts on a very interesting strain that I was lucky enough to grow 🍀 TROPICANNA POISON ⚕️ A brand new variety from the famous seed bank, SWEET SEEDS And yes, this definitely has a very sweet scent 🍭 Impossible not to recognize it, even if different varieties are grown all together 🙌 It smells wonderful and quite intense 🤩 I would like to specify as always that I will not dwell too long on the effects it induces, because I am strongly convinced that Cannabis is a decidedly subjective substance.. So the best I can say is that this is a weed that tends to have more effects on the "Indica" side, but is still stimulating for the mind at the same time.. But here are the terpenes to be the master 💯💯 Honestly I haven't done a smoke test because it's still too early (I'm writing this review to be able to participate in the contest) But with the vaporizer you can clearly feel the same hints of sweet tropical fruit with slightly earthy and citrus notes on the palate that were perceived during flowering 🍊🍍🍋🍒 Personally it reminds me a lot of the scent of a bitter orange juice that my grandmother gave me as a child This is also the magical side of these flowers, or at least in general the sensations and memories that certain scents bring to mind.. Fantastic 💚 And if everything is accompanied by a good effect, even better 😎 However.. I would certainly recommend this Cannabis to those who want fruity and sweet flowers 👌👌 But also to those who maybe like me are more of a Kush type, but who appreciate having exotic plants in their garden with a beautiful purple shades 😉: 1: Sweet Seeds didn't exaggerate in their description.. If you take this ganja around with you, whoever tastes it will make you a real guru 👳‍♂️ Provided that the plant has been grown properly and above all that its flowers are dried and cared for correctly ☝️ Because a large part of the final experience depends on them.. It is an art 🎨 Which, added to the work done by the breeders, can culminate in a real masterpiece.. And that's it . For those who want more specific information on the cultivation process, I invite you to view it week by week, where I tried to transcribe everything I did best 📆📆 I also took a couple of photos if you don't feel like reading 😉 I conclude by thanking Sweet Seeds again for the opportunity to have been able to cultivate her genetics 🙏 Thanks to all of you for the great appreciation received 🙏🙏 And a thousand thanks as always to the platform that hosts us, Grow diaries 🙏👇💪💪 See you around here somewhere.. There are many seeds to germinate.. Stay connected 🤙🤟 Ciao ✌️ 🇮🇹 . . . . .

Hello Diary, Apollo F1 could best be described as "little fat". The smallest on the Farm, only 40 cm, with a pile of leaves from which the formed flowers peek out. The leaves are a beautiful dark green color, densely overgrown with the entire plant. Since it did not grow too high, the plant took the shape of a ball. As for the flowers, they are filling in nicely and the trichomes are starting to appear. The scent has become more intense, just as befits this stage of flowering. Watering has become more frequent, every three days each plant on the Farm receives about 2.5 liters of water. I continue adding Bio Flowering Booster and Easy Bloom tablets. Conditions on the farm are good. The temperature is around 28 degrees, while the humidity is around 45%. Here's what it looked like last week. 06/06/2023 - Day 38. Watering. I added all three components from the Bio Flowering Booster. pH I lowered it to 6.0. Each plant received about 2.5 liters of water. 09/06/2023 - Day 41. Watering. This time I put one Easy Bloom tablet in 7 liters of water and watered all three plants on the Farm with that amount. 10/06/2023 - Day 42. End of the sixth week. I photographed the plants and removed three or four yellow leaves. Apollo F1 - 41 cm That's all for this week, thank you all for your support and see you soon.

We finally made it ladies and gentlemen. It is an honor to introduce you to the beautiful Lady Wedding Cake and the beautiful Cookies Kush twins. Even though I'm pretty sure cookies kush #1 would have needed another week, she had to go under the knife and was finished just in time for the super bowl. we also need the space now for the next round of the Eternity Grow Cup. Next Stop Zami Runtz and Blue Gelato 41

D8 Top right plant is getting some heat stress from the heat lamp. Will try not using the heat and see how low temps get at lights out. Watering once a day. Still haven’t set up my irrigation. PPFD 400. VPD could be better. D9 Lights off temp got down to 66. Plants seem happy still. D10 turned heat lamp back on and adjusted heat temp. Getting really cold. D11 Watering once a day by hand. Still waiting on Athena nutrients before I set up hydro halos. Increased PPFD to 500. D12 pistils starting to show. D13 EC 1.8 PH 5.8 D14 I can’t believe how much these plants have grown since the last defoliation. Tent is getting crowded. Thought about getting rid of the plant with the twisted stem. (Bottom Right)

(The numbers of this harvest are from a single plant) I ended REAL ORGANIC and let plants dry by themselves on their pots outside the tent and gradually day after day i was picking and selecting dry buds from the branches 2 smoke m all! This particular diary gave me a sense of adventure, and a lot of fun, i´ll always remenber that made my quareentine a lot easier to live, by that time i felt i was prepared even for the end of the times if it comes to that 😂
