This plant is a beast.. she is massive and well into her stretch. Loads of bud sites and great spacing between nodes. I had to supercrop her as she was pushing twice the height of all othe girls in the room. She took it well and is fully recovered and just great. Love this plant. Very odd smell quite disgusting ATM tbh.. I started giving this girl a light misting with some fishmix and activera for a few days as she was looking like she was not getting enough food. 5 days on she is looking good Thanks for stopping by. Happy growing all🌿🌱 Stay safe😷😷😷

For my first legal grow, I was gifted a giant Sherbert Creamsicle (Clone of above): This is a positively delicious and unique herb that I have fallen in love with. Additionaly, handed 2 bushes of my first cross BMX(Clones of the small one above) which turned out to be better than I expected by far. I have Transplanted all three into 7 gallons of Roots Organic 707 with 2tbs per gallon Bio-Live. Because she is so hungry, I applied 2 doses of 7-1-1 grow terp tea. Once before and once a few days after transplant. They are looking pale but coming around soon I think. Then it's time to flip my first big one. Sherbert Creamsicle is in the back and the 2 BMX are in the front in the pics. There are some small BMX testers around the sherbs too. It is done. Light cycle switched. Now just water and wait. Day 5: I fertilized lightly with a 1 tsp/gal tea of 50/50 Roots organic Grow/Bloom. I hope that from here I will be able to rely on all that soil to take her at least halfway through flowering.

Gorilla Jealousy F1 is making progress. She is just shaking off the stress of 2 neem oil treatments. I have not seen any signs on her. She was just in same area. So it had to be done to try to solve it. I dunno if it is solved yet. I am watching and still looking to find whatever it is. That's all that is really going on. She will be moving to her new tent in avout 2 weeks roughly. Waiting on a plant to finish in there now. Thank you Seedsman, and Spider Farmer. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱

Switched the plants to flower this week and have noticed tons of growth since. Both plants have turned out to be female and are both producing pistils. Have run into a potential problem while defoliating I noticed a couple leaves on one stem that look like they were burnt almost. They weren’t bad but I haven’t noticed it anywhere else. I looked over a lot of the leaves with a healers loupe under 60x magnification and didn’t notice and insects, the leaves were also growing into the side of the tent so that might be what cause it but not too sure.

Fruity Freak 2 and 3 are 57” tall and 48” across. They are both shedding any remaining premature flowers and sugar leaves. Their re-veg / pre-flower stretch looks like it is slowing, so they should be showing flowers soon. The top four branches that had been LST’d have sprouted new shoots along the branches, and it looks like there will be several apical bud sites, which is great! Additionally, the growth tips on those four branches have now split into multiple shoots since the re-veg. It is also interesting to look at these plants as a whole–there are no secondary branches on any of the lower branches, so no need to prune! They also have a nice open shape that permits plenty of airflow. So, despite my delayed and reactive pruning/training, the plants look like they have great potential. I went ahead and took a video of them as it is hard to really capture them in pictures. Fruity Freak 1 is up to 45”. She’s currently a backup plan, so if everything goes well, it is unlikely I will need any of her yield. Fruity Freak E’s clone is taking off, now 14”, up 5” from last week. I received my Mono-Potassium Phosphate this week and designed a new fertilizer blend using it. Now that these plants are about to flower, I am discontinuing the use of the liquid 4-10-3 fertilizer as it has a small amount of Auxin in it. The new recipe is: Mono Potassium Phosphate - 0.5 grams per gallon Potassium Nitrate - 1.36 grams per gallon Soy hydrolysate - 3.52 grams per gallon (Which still hits my targets of 160 ppm N, 30 ppm P, and 175 ppm K) I will update the nutrient section once I have a good guess for tsp/gal conversion.

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. Shoutouts & Gratitude 🙌 As always, a massive thank you to: Terpyz Mutant Genetics for these one-of-a-kind Croco seeds. Aptus Holland for their exceptional organic-mineral nutrients. Pro Mix for the reliable soil base. Future of Grow for their stellar LED lights. TrolMaster for keeping the environment dialed in. Grow Diaries for being an amazing platform to share this journey.

Jour 35 et tout roule ! Ma plante se développe à merveille, même si elle a décidé de stopper son élongation assez tôt, ce qui lui donne un aspect trapu et compact. Je suis plutôt satisfait de mon suivi, car j'ai réussi à éviter les erreurs du passé, comme le surdosage d'engrais. La terre est suffisamment riche en nutriments organiques pour subvenir à ses besoins. Hâte de voir comment elle va évoluer dans les prochaines semaines Jour 35 Engrais : max mais pas de NPK sauf phosphore et potassium a petite dose. Remarque : la plante ne s'est pas étirée suffisamment

Her leaves are being leached of all their nutes. We are approaching the end of this plants journey within the next week or two. Molasses and plain bottled water seem to be doing her great.

Hello. Got the plants into the main grow room. There is 2 videos . In the first I just sit in the room quitly and turn the camera. you get a sense :) of what it's like in there. In the second I try to describe what's in the room, equipment and maybe a new technique. With the tomato cages I use, and needing the plant to slow down, I twist the stock into a large figure 8. Eventually I take off what is on the lower part of the 8, and just work the top of the 8. About 2 weeks in veg in this room. Then I take clones of everything before I switch to flower. >Carbon dioxide enhancement: I had to make that choice 20 years ago. I could, rent a tank and have my name on a list, at the gas store. Or make my own. They didn't have the small propane tanks like they do today for the blue flame you get when you burn it. I decided on a kerosene lamp burning down as low as it could be without going out. It makes a half blue and half yellow flame. I vent constantly so the small amount of carbon monoxide is not a problem. For the first week you can smell it a bit, but the smell disappears after that. I light the lamp in the morning and put it out at lights out (unless it's bed time). It needs to be put in a place in the room that cant get knocked over (pets, children, ?). I try to use extra attention whenever I use it. It can burn down the place. Be careful Please. >About 17 years ago I thought I'd lower my table by knocking a hole in the cement and dropping my 10 gallon reservoir more. I was able to lower it by 16 inches. Still have to watch the height of some plants though, it worked out well. Watch the video. > Air cleaner: The reason I got a big 8 inch exhaust fan was, I had a bout of powder mildew and needed better a exhaust system. When I plugged it in there was too much air moving. I phoned and asked and the salesman said that a dimmer switch wasn't a good idea. I put one on anyway. Works great. I have the fan barely on in the winter and about half way on in the middle of the summer. I haven't had any powdery mildew since. About 12 years ago I bought a good air cleaner. An ORECK, It has electrified plates that zap any organic particle or spore that come between the plates. Use to grow a Northern Lights that got 6 to 8 ounces per harvest, it grew big buds. Buds as big as my forearm. I had problems with gray mold attaching the buds. But none since I bought the air cleaner. Ya learn as you go.

Hey fellow growers! Week 3 of Bloom is completed, and everything has gone smoothly so far. The plants are well taken care of and haven’t shown any signs of deficiency. To be safe, I did another top dressing with worm compost, microbes, and fungi. I’ll keep you updated. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out!

Plants sprouted in just three days after planting! First week for the seedlings was me learning to get the humidity and light the right distance. A little bit of stretching but not too big of a deal. Plants fixed themselves
