12/20 Week 7 Happy with the growth and the smell is so sweet, minty, and berry so terps are doing just fine. Backed off nuets ever so slightly 12/21 new pics and backing off the nuets more tonight - 10ml each see if I can get rid of those white tips Helps if you upload the right files 😎 12/23 pics 12/24 All is good but think I am going to continue reducing the nuets and checking EC of runoff as still getting some small issues on leaf tips. Maybe I am chasing ghosts we will see 12/25 White tips under control, runoff checked at 1600ppm unadjusted 950ppm unadjusted in, adjusted for water thats 1400 and 750 so ok now. Buds building fast swapping positions in the tent tonight.

It’s been a while since last update and apologies , 3x dos si dos 33 in auto pots 1x dos si dos in all mix soil and hand watered 1x peyote critical auto pot 3x cookie dough sundae auto pot but the dos si dos 33’s are tanking along and proving very well , lovely Aromas so far , there’s a nice sharp sour lime flavour to it . Few weeks to go still and hoping they keep on flourishing as they are , this lot is from seeds so it also looks like a have couple of pheno’s of the strain . Buds are forming very well and growing big and dense. Peyote critical is stacking up nicely and doing well as always , sweet and earthy notes so far . Great structure to the buds also Cookie dough sundaes have been a challenge to deal with as I have very little info on this strain but after they seem slow to chunk up through mid flower they are finally making some gains and looking very sativa like with the shape of bud and going to need 10-11 weeks on this which I wasn’t quite wanting or expecting but it is what it is , but saying that the flavours from this is super sweet and tangy and really look forward to this new flavour to hit on .

taking some sun in the morning

Hello This is the end of the germination phase for these plants and on to the beginning of week 1 of veg. These seedlings will get some food with the next watering. I see 2 are sort of struggling to put out normal leaves. They will normally grow out of this by the 3rd leaf set. They were 3 year old seeds when I got them. So they are a bit slow to get going. The clerk at the grow store said this product will kill all the pests and mold and fungus. I've been using it in the greenhouse this last week and it knocks out the powdery mildew. I smell a bit of mint when I spray it. The web site is there for you to check out. He said the cure all product the growers have been waiting for. I like that it's made with essential oils. OK Keep growing Straight. Chuck.

Another good week in the bag. The girls are getting water every day. The shortest one drinks the most. Interesting. They have a sugary smell to them. It's hard to describe. I'll be interested in the final smell. I decided to bust out the microacope and to my surprise the trichomes are pretty milky already! It's only been five weeks! Will monitor to see the amber but still for this early! Started using the UVB! Started at 30 minutes for a few days. Now at one hour. The tests started at two hours at three weeks out which would be now. So gonna increase tomorrow another thirty and continue to ramp up.

Hi fellow growers, another week and a half has passed so this diary update is a bit over due. As i said in my last update that i was growing on 24 hours of light and thinking about switching them to 18-6, right after writing last weeks diary i made the switch to 18-6 and left it for the past week and a half and that made a huge difference in growth the plants where nice and bushy from the 24 hours of light and they are now stretching towards the light just like we want to see yesterday i made the switch to 12-12 so the next update will be in flowering fase. The day before i made the switch to 18-6 we topped the plants and did a little defoliation but that is hardley noticable in the pictures i added because the new fan leaves developed quick and now they are nice and bushy again, enough leaf surface to take in a lot of light. I think i will be taking out my scrog net somewhere in the next week or so to train them a little but no full on scrog. lighting is now on full power 330 watts full spectrum but is still hanging on 50 cm above the canopy. I give them a little more water every day they get half a liter with hy-pro nutes and rootbastic (the amount added is in the nutes section above) That is all for now. Cheers, Nibameca

Because theyre a little bit slow in growth i consider another 2 weeks before i switch

clones from the seed grown plants. This is a F1 Fast strain. Photoperiod. I topped these plants that were autos. I see that topping these girls triggered something left over from the auto genetics...I have had autos on more than 1 occasion immediately start flowering. I am sure this would have had it not been a photoperiod. I have 10 clones of this and I will not be topping it until absolutely necessary. Had i not been down to 1 tent and a grow light I would have moved on with flowering those cute little things...

Still vegging. Longer than I imagined. Have yet to introduce blooming fertilizer. Maybe next week.

Refilled the Botaniums today, 7 days after the previous fill, as I saw they were completely empty. One of the plants is starting to show a tiny bit of weird coloring on some leaves and the texture of the leaves is also a bit strange. The other plant looks completely healthy.

Holy foxtail!! I mean, she's growing well in most aspects, so I'm not really complaining. There's 2 evident buds with bleaching. Her mom had that with I believe 2 or 3. I know it's my heat and lighting. Starting to think my ppfd meter is off. Started this week with a gallon of water. Giving her the final boost and wash of the top dress. This is her final weeks as I'm loving where the trichomes are and im eagerly getting ready to use my cannatrol and get the next plant going. My reds were turned down to 25% gearing towards 0% for final week of Ripening. Again, no evidental issues beyond those previously addressed. For fun, there is a picture of a cover crop seed coming up. This little seed has been in here from either the beginning of this grow, or previous grows. Amazing how they can decide to come to life at any point.

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.

Dopo due settimane nel box la crescita era diventata troppo elevata e ho dovuto spostare tutto nel mio armadio ma anche qui dopo 3 giorni da 20 cm (distanza dalla pianta alle lampade) siamo passati a neanche 4 cm una crescita esponenziale. La fioritura prosegue e i risultati sono ottimi i fiori si inizia a formare e dai filamenti penso che il raccolto non sarà misero anzi credo che sarà più di quanto mi aspettavo (circa 20/25gr)

Day 28: I got home from 10 days of holidays and these girls had cruised along as if I had been there with them the whole time. They are very happy, especially the middle one. The small one on the right has always been small, is what it is. She could be a stack little shorty. Time will tell. I did a feed today, top dressed according to Gaia Green at 15 ml/ gal of media which should last approx 2 weeks. I also added a bit more 444 just to make sure there’s enough N during this stretch phase. All 3 have pistols showing and are starting to flower. I was unable to train as much as I’d have liked but is what it is. Sometimes the more indica strains I’ve done are negatively effected by topping and excess training. I removed a couple huge fans that were shading too much of the plant. I also am trying a “super cropping” of top fans to get them out of the way but still save them as a nute source if they need. We’ll see how it goes. The Vipar spectra xs2000 is killling it as usual. As I’ve said 50 times it’s super powerful and I’ve had to raise the light above recommended height as I started to see leaf edge curl and light stress. No problem at all tho, better too powerful and raise it than too weak and have loose buds. I did a micro top just to stop excessive apical meristem stretch and leaving all the other lower branches too low for effective light absorption or burn on the top cola. Happy Growing 🌱

Not much other than yet another super progressive week! Oppsies tape came off and it was fully healed. I'm shocked. Went through and defoliated today and grabbed some pictures. Didn't grab many through the process. Week 1.5 of flower was solid.

Low maintenance. Just watered this week with cal-mag'd water. Trichomes still nice and cloudy. Harvest is close.

Buds are ripening and trichomes are starting to get cloudier. I expect two more weeks

The plants have limited space and are in 4 litre pots too keep them controlled. This week I defoliated again and started adding sugar royal.

Stiamo ancora raccogliendo,ancora nessuna pianta é morta,sto rimuovendo piano piano le cime più mature,così facendo evitiamo le cime popcorn e diamo il tempo alla pianta di riempire anche le cime inferiori,per adesso levando quella fumata e venduta siamo all'incirca sui 780g,però aspettiamo anche il nuovo stendino,alla fine del raccolto dovremmo arrivare a quasi 2 Kili con 7 piante e 6 vasi,con una media di 333g a pianta,ho pubblicato tutto quello che potevo,ogni procedimento,spero vi piaccia e mi seguiate
