It's been awhile since my last update. I was having major problems with another grow and neglected my updates on this one. I've got another week or 2 left most likely. The purple is just starting to come in now. I had some spider mites a few weeks ago, but Dr zymes was able to take care of them for long enough until harvest. Some tall and fat colas are starting. Should get a decent yield considering the awkward 1x3 grow space. I took a monster crop clipping about a week ago that has rooted. My plan is to grow one of these in a 3x3 scrog for my next grow.

🌸 Mentha de Croco | Week 2 Flower (Week 13 from Seed) Grow Style: Indoor | Medium: Pro-Mix HP | Feed Program: Aptus Holland Clean Program | Genetics: Mentha de Croco by Terpyz Genetics Lighting: FOG LED Black Series | Controller: TrolMaster Photoperiod: 11/13 (Light/Dark) Camera: Sony A6000 capturing all the vibes ⸻ This week marks a major chapter in our Mentha de Croco mutant hunt: the second week of flower — and the official reveal of who’s who in the garden. As expected with regular seeds, we had both males and females, and this was the week we identified them all. From the original 12 beans, 5 revealed themselves as proud ladies while the rest — equally stunning in structure and expression — turned out to be males. 🌿 💚 Let’s talk about regular seeds and plant sex: Regular seeds are unsexed, meaning they can become either male or female. It’s a 50/50 genetic roll of the dice — and with unique mutant genetics like these, identifying sex isn’t always easy early on. Males typically show small pollen sacs, often referred to as “bananas” in their early stage. Females develop pistils, the first hairs of the flowers we’re after. Male plants, while beautiful and structurally fascinating (especially in this mutant project), can compromise a flowering room if left unchecked. Their pollen can fertilize female plants, leading to seeded buds — great if breeding, not great for clean flower. So, we say goodbye, thank them for their beauty, and move forward with the ladies to full bloom. The males? They’ll return to the earth as beautiful compost. 🌱✨ ⸻ This Week’s Feeding Schedule (Aptus Holland Clean Program): • Regulator – Strengthening cell walls and stress resistance • System Clean – Sanitizing the water lines (preventative, even if not in a system) • RO Water Conditioner – Prepping and balancing the base • All-in-One Liquid – Increased dose this week to 1.5 ml/L • Breakout Powder – Boosting early flower development • EC: 1.26 • pH: 6.0 • Water Temp: 18.6°C ⸻ 🌿 Canopy Update: All plants are now under SCROG netting — not because these particular girls needed it, but because they share the space with other cultivars. It’s all about harmony in the garden. The stretch is beginning, and the light intensity has been dialed up to match — PPFD around 800. We’re thrilled to see some early floral development already peeking through. The ladies are loving the new rhythm, and it’s clear they’re ready to shine in this next stage. ⸻ 📸 Captured Moments: This week’s shots include closeups of the male flowers for educational purposes, so the community can see what early male traits look like — especially in complex, mutant-style expressions. All captured with the Sony A6000 under those rich contrasts of dark and light. ⸻ 🙏 Shout Outs & Love: Much love and thanks to the brilliant minds at Terpyz Genetics for the wild beauty of these beans, Aptus Holland for the clean and powerful nutrition, TrolMaster for the precision control, and Future of Grow for the innovation we grow under. And of course — endless gratitude to the Grow Diaries community, the growers, the learners, the lovers and even the haters — it’s all energy, and it all fuels the passion. 💚 📲 Don’t forget to follow the journey on Instagram and YouTube — always sharing the love and the lessons 🌍 Genetics - Mentha De Croco Nutrition - @aptusholland https://aptus-holland.com/ Led Power @ F.O.G.

This week I defoliated all the flowers, did Bruce Banner's topping, increased the light to 75%, and continue to do LST. I think to give 2 more weeks of vegetation, defoliation once a week. Next I'll transfer to 12/12 and we'll see 🙃

IT'S THAT TIME!!

Her flowers are packing the weight on this week!! 😍 Leaves look a bit curled up, possibly wind burn. I have moved her position in the tent.

Hi guys! It´s the beginning of v-weeks 1-2. She´s still in her little "incubator" for the humidity. I only watered her this time, round about 400ml. Can´t wait till she gets bigger!♡ CannaPeace Growmies!🌱😶‍🌫️ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🍀🍀 UPDATES WEEK 1- 2 🍀🍀 ✨16.01.2025- watering day, about 400ml ✨18.01.2025- feeding day for baby Runtzies; I fed her about 250ml, BB- AV 0,5ml; BB- RJ 1ml; BB- pH- 0,2ml (water being a bishh); PLAGRON. GS 0,5ml; PLAGRON. Grow 0,5ml I think she´s living her lil life, her leaves are growing like crazy. I also took the improvised incubator away- she does not fit in there ✨ 20.01.2025- she´s 4,5cm big now, doing great. Nothing too crazy to add today:) ✨ 22.01.2025- watering day, about 300ml. I´m really enjoying watching her grow. She´s starting to develop the 3rd node ✨ 25.01.2025- watering daaay! I watered her only about 150ml. As you can see she´s really pretty and living her planty life ✨ 26.01.2025- just fed her some BB-RJ (3-4ml/1L water- I gave her just 70-90ml)

Decided to tie these down rather than the plan to totally fill the scrog net. Reason is i plan on growing some new genetics as I have grown this strain about 6-7 times, as good as it is it’s time for a change. Planning on running a symbiotic genetics cut of mimosa and some strains from Arctic Genetics

This strain has never disappointed. Always a beautiful fade and amazing smell.

Pour cette semaine nous avons décider de pratiquer la défoliation, pour la première fois, bonne idée ou pas nous verrons par la suite ce que cela donne. defoliation : 10/12/2018

It seems that the girl is counting her last days, some of the trichomes are already showing an amber color, the buds look simply fantastic, it's a pity that I can't transfer that image with my phone - share that image with you, you need to see it live :) good luck to everyone:)

Flicked them over to 12 a few days ago they are getting really big and starting to stretch. I have used bendz to train the canopy. No Scrog or netting hoping the buds will support themselves. Any small deficiencies have disappeared although the “dwarf claw“ plant has been stunted Since day one so she’s back in the greenhouse where she seems to prefer it.

This week will be the last one for these babies, already started flushing them with water. Plan to continue so for 2-3 more days until reach around 700-600 ppm and Bob is your uncle. It was my first experience with auto flowering strains. It gives much less amount of products comparing to photo, but less stress as well, easy growing, plants are quite are unpretentious. Let's see how potent they will be.

When I started the week I put it on the net, the holes seemed too big and I thought about using sticks to reduce the area, I don't know if it's a good idea to put the sticks horizontally too. I decided to improve the number of the net holes, i used a rubber rope and stiks. Now I have 160 holes, maybe are too many but i think that can manage the net if i need moore space in the holes.

The plant is doing well overall this week! 💪 To handle a few fungus gnats that started showing up, I introduced nematodes into the soil and placed some yellow sticky traps, seems to be keeping things under control so far. She's growing quite tall now, definitely stretching up nicely, but not really filling out much in width. A true lemony skyscraper in the tent!😂💚

8th week , 4th of flora They are tall, strong and healthy Using the same fert proportions as vegetative stage. They reached 77cm tall

Olá companheiros, estas meninas da barney's farm, estão muito bem tiveram duas semanas a 24 /24h de luz agora passei a 20h de luz e 4h escuro, as meninas foram transplantadas para vaso de 26 litros, a shiskaberry está a crescer muito para cima por isso fiz um pequeno LST, abraço amigos, aceito sugestões ✌️🌱

Pablo Escobar is coming to a end. She has some nice frosty colas on her. She has a fruity smell with a pine undertone. Her feed was pretty strong and it probably effected my final yield. She will still provide several ounces once she is processed. I have not has a good sativa in some time. She smells very good. Thank you Spider Farmer, and Divine Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱❄️ Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇.

Check out our video!! This week was week one, transplanting 3 cuttings into the Octopots with Grids/Liners. This is our first Research & Development grow here this year! Will the Lil' Girl take off? Maybe the Middle Child is strongest after all?! Or does maturity win it in the end for Big Sis? Come along with us while we have fun learning and testing theories!

Hi everyone ! i think i understand what happen last week. 2 days after i fill the tank, they drank so much,, and EC increase a lot. so i removed 7/8 L in each tank and fill it again with tap water to decrease EC to 1.2/1.3. i don't see more damage after diluate so i guess they like it 😅 i change the water today, and i feed them less than last week ( 30-40% of the recommended quantity ) See you next week 👋
