🌿 Woche 24 – Mentha de Croco von Terpyz 🇩🇪 Diese Woche haben beide Pflanzen ihr Höhenwachstum endgültig eingestellt und konzentrieren ihre Energie jetzt voll auf die Entwicklung der Buds 🌸. Nach dem starken Auslichten in der vergangenen Woche ist die Struktur deutlich übersichtlicher geworden und ich bin sehr gespannt, wie sich die verbliebenen Top Buds in den nächsten Wochen entwickeln werden 👀🌱. Die linke Pflanze ist weiterhin etwas weiter in der Blüte und zeigt an einigen Blättern nach wie vor leichte Nährstoffdefizite 🍂. Bei der rechten Pflanze ist das deutlich weniger ausgeprägt und sie wirkt insgesamt etwas vitaler 💚. Diese Woche habe ich noch zweimal mit BioBizz Grow, Bloom, Heaven und TopMax gedüngt . Den Pflanzen hat die zusätzliche Nährstoffversorgung offensichtlich gutgetan – allerdings musste ich dabei eine ziemlich interessante und für mich wichtige Erfahrung machen: Das Bodenleben hat unter dem Flüssigdünger deutlich gelitten. Vorher war unter der Mulchschicht richtig viel Leben zu sehen. Jetzt ist dort kaum noch etwas los und ein Teil der Würmer ist sogar aus den Töpfen geflohen und teilweise vertrocknet 💧. Für mich ein ziemlich klares Zeichen, dass eine Pflanze zwar kurzfristig von Flüssigdünger profitieren kann, das biologische Gleichgewicht im Living Soil dadurch aber trotzdem gestört werden kann. Deshalb habe ich heute eine Entscheidung getroffen: Ab sofort verzichte ich auf Flaschendünger – auch wenn er biologisch ist 🚫. Stattdessen möchte ich wieder stärker auf die eigentliche Grundlage meines Living Soils setzen. Pro Pflanze habe ich deshalb 125 g Almicanna Kickflip mit einer Hand Kompost und einer halben Hand Wurmhumus vermischt und als Topdress ausgebracht 🌱. Ich hoffe, damit das Bodenleben wieder richtig anzukurbeln und die biologische Aktivität zurückzubringen 🙏. Dafür nehme ich am Ende lieber etwas weniger Ertrag in Kauf – mir ist ein gesundes, lebendiges Bodenökosystem inzwischen wichtiger als die letzten Gramm Ernte 💚. Für nächstes Jahr habe ich daraus definitiv etwas gelernt: Rechtzeitig vor Beginn der Blüte topdressen und von Anfang an ausreichend Platz im Topf dafür einplanen. Bei 30 Litern ist der Platz für zusätzliche organische Nährstoffgaben irgendwann einfach ziemlich begrenzt. Der Wasserverbrauch liegt mittlerweile bei ungefähr 4,5 Litern pro Pflanze und Tag 💧. Durch das starke Auslichten und die inzwischen deutlich kühleren Temperaturen ist der Verbrauch spürbar zurückgegangen 🌡️. Und dann gibt es noch einen Punkt, auf den ich mich momentan besonders freue: der Geruch 👃. Beim Zerreiben der Zuckerblätter zeigen beide Pflanzen bereits ein wirklich vielversprechendes Aroma. Ich nehme eine fruchtige, zitronige Note mit einer leichten Nuance von Minze wahr 🍋🍃. Die Zitronennote gefällt mir jetzt schon sehr gut, aber ich hoffe natürlich, dass sich die Minznote im weiteren Verlauf noch etwas verstärkt 🙏. Eine solche Kombination hatte ich bisher noch nicht im Grow und genau deshalb bin ich besonders gespannt, wohin sich das Terpenprofil bis zur Ernte noch entwickelt 😍. Jetzt heißt es wieder: Bodenleben beobachten, Buds beobachten und abwarten 🍂🌸. Ich hoffe, dass sich das biologische Leben im Substrat nach dem Topdress schnell wieder erholt und die beiden Mentha de Croco ihre letzten Blütewochen unter möglichst guten Bedingungen genießen können 🤞🌿. 🌿 Week 24 – Mentha de Croco by Terpyz 🇬🇧 This week, both plants have finally stopped their vertical growth and are now putting all their energy into developing the buds 🌸. After the heavy defoliation last week, the structure is much more open and I’m really curious to see how the remaining top buds will develop over the coming weeks 👀🌱. The left plant is still slightly further ahead in flowering and continues to show some mild nutrient deficiencies on a few leaves 🍂. The right plant is less affected and generally looks a little healthier and more vigorous 💚. This week I still fed them twice with BioBizz Grow, Bloom, Heaven and TopMax . The plants definitely seemed to benefit from the additional nutrients, but I also noticed something quite important: the soil life has clearly suffered from the liquid fertilerer. Before, there was an incredible amount of life underneath the mulch layer. Now there is hardly anything moving, and some of the worms have even left the pots and partially dried out 💧. To me, this is a pretty clear indication that liquid fertilizer can help the plants in the short term, while still having a negative impact on the biological activity of the Living Soil. So today I made a decision: from now on, I’m stopping bottled fertilizers completely – even if they are organic 🚫. Instead, I want to rely more heavily on the Living Soil itself and get the biological activity back on track. For each plant, I mixed 125 g of Almicanna Kickflip with one handful of compost and half a handful of worm castings and applied it as a topdress 🌱. I hope this will reactivate the soil life and bring the biological activity back to where it was 🙏. I’m perfectly happy to accept a little less yield if necessary – at this point, a healthy and living soil ecosystem is more important to me than squeezing out the last few grams of harvest 💚. I’ve definitely learned something for next year: topdress early enough before flowering starts and leave some extra space in the pot for it from the beginning. With only 30 L of soil, space for additional organic amendments becomes quite limited later in the season. Water consumption is now around 4.5 L per plant per day 💧. Because of the heavy defoliation and the significantly cooler temperatures, water consumption has dropped noticeably 🌡️. And there is another thing I’m really excited about right now: the aroma 👃. When rubbing the sugar leaves, both plants already show a very promising terpene profile. I’m picking up a fruity, citrusy note with a subtle hint of mint 🍋🍃. I already really like the citrus side, but I’m hoping the mint note will become a little stronger as flowering progresses 🙏. I’ve never grown a strain with an aroma combination like this before, so I’m especially curious to see where the terpene profile ends up by harvest 😍. For now, it’s time to watch the soil life, watch the buds and let nature do its thing 🍂🌸. Hopefully the soil ecosystem will quickly recover from the recent stress and both Mentha de Croco plants can enjoy their final flowering weeks under good conditions 🤞🌿.

####Please do read the disclaimer in the first entry! 01/28/25 Short facts: - VPD @ 1.0 but normaly it doesn't get better than 0.9 - Light @80% so most leaves are exposed to 500 - 960 ppfd - Success with the colloidal silver --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Finally, the attempts to spray her with colloidal silver were successful. Many pollen sacs are developing, and I hope they will be ready within a week. Buying a new spray was the right decision because, with the new one, it took less than two weeks for the pollen sacs to appear. However, the leaves are looking worse now—some are almost 70% dead. I still hope she will make it so the seeds can fully develop. I planted the Lemon Cherry Cookies much earlier than the other two plants to avoid pollinating Slurricane and 1:Walt. However, due to the delay, both are already in flower, so they will end up with some seeds. Maybe one of the crosses will turn out to be something special! 😂

I’m excited to see what RQS have to offer with this little Gem! I’ve been waiting to try another of Royals Automatics, Fat Banana is a strain Im growing along side Gelato and Gorilla 😁 It’s been an eventful first few days.. (arnt they always!) she also poked her head up yesterday so Day 1 is 30/03/20. Let’s see how this week treats her, I plan to keep a close eye on the environmental conditions and to ensure she’s being fed some gentle nutrients, CalMag to begin with followed by some BioBizz Grow for the extra nitrogen needed at this delicate time 👌 See you all next week, I hope with more leaves to show 🌱✌️ Peace and love, stay safe

Just finishing week 2 of flower. All trimming has been completed on the lower branches. Had a slight Calcium deficiency, due to a mix-up with nutrients. Girls are back on track and looking great. Stay tuned as these girls are going to stack up nicely

Feb 22 Really starting to thicken up! The soil underneath is still plenty moist even though the fan is blowing on it 24 hours a day. The roots will grow more quickly as the water dries up and the roots continue their search for more.

The cherry bomb doing well. Gave her a flush and fresh nutrients. Been tying the branches down a little as they grow out and pulling a few leaves every couple days to keep them from blocking light. Will be switching them to flower next week.

👉The plant hasn't gained much more height, but the buds have started to plump and frost. The aroma has also become strong and is an intoxicating creamy lemony scent. The frost is spreading onto the sugar leaves. The buds are going to be dense. I have only taken a few of the lower and most shaded leaves, and those leaves were starting easy to pluck as if the plant was done with them anyway. Its got purple stems and at the beginning of the week show potential early signs of magnesium deficiency. This can be due to the pure H2O I use and less mag in the solution than normal, so I added an extra measure of Calmag in the mix. I haven't seen any progression of purple veins or any other notable possible nutrient issues in the leaves. The plant is full of leaves and I have zero intention to remove anymore of the food factories until the plat tells me to. 👉I used week 8 "mid Bloom" nutrient mix from the General Hydroponics Flora Series Drain to waste feed chart. The run-off has stayed within the target. I did one low EC fertigation and one H20nly event, both followed by regular strength solution.Switching to the week 9 mix this week. 👉

Hi Growmies, As we reach the tenth week of nurturing our Epic Buzz, the plant's journey through the flowering stage is showcasing the dynamic nature of cultivation. In recent days, the Epic Buzz has hit a significant milestone, completing its vertical stretch—a clear sign that the energy will now be redirected towards budding along the colas. The structure of the plant, with its statuesque colas reaching upwards, is now set, creating an elegant scaffold for the buds that will soon start to form and elongate along these supportive spires. The Epic Buzz's voracious intake of water continues unabated, signaling a system in full swing, eager for the nutrients and hydration that will fuel the forthcoming bud development. This is a plant in its prime, with a root system so efficient and healthy that it brims out of its pot, a network of life that has become the engine for the lush foliage above. In observing the Epic Buzz, one cannot help but admire the visual harmony it presents. The symmetry of its growth, the healthy sheen on the fan leaves, and the promise of future blooms are a canvas of living art. The measured approach to topping and training earlier in its life has shaped a plant that is not just healthy but a delight to behold. I believe that with the stretching phase behind us, we can now look forward to the next phase where the buds will begin to form and stretch along the colas, promising an exciting period of development. The anticipation for the swelling and maturation of the buds is palpable, but for now, we focus on the promise that each new day of growth brings. This grow has been a labor of love, and as we transition from one growth phase to the next, my hopes for Epic Buzz continue to soar. I invite you to stay with me on this journey, as the coming weeks will bring the transformation we've been nurturing towards. Stay lifted, and keep an eye out for the next update, where we will witness the Epic Buzz begin to put on its floral display. Salokin

Hello everybody :) End of the ninth week of flowering. Some of the lady's change color slightly. Probably next week will be the las for Power Plant, Wild Thailand and Critical Haze - yeaap they are almost ready for harvest :) The rest definitely need two more weeks. Due to the fact that we have here mainly sativas, including powerful haze genetics, they are not very dense, but still very oily and sticky :)

12/7 Week five and in full flower. Runoff was way high 1400-1700 ppm this accounts for the tiny white tips on new growth. Increased amount to 0.5 gal once a day but may have o go back to twice a day. Still on half/grow half/bloom until the stretch plays out still trying to hit 700ppm of feed without runoff exceeding upper limits so feed alone is running 600ppm to counter the hard water. Once I have a handle on the runoff will up nuets. After some thought and a bit of reading I decided to do this as a root drench and fertilized flush to remove all salts from the pot. 0.5 gal 5.7PH CT Grow AB / Kangaroots /Fish Sh!t with @50% runoff - 950ppm (unadjusted 750ppm adjusted) in / and 1020ppm out. See how things look in 24 hours. 12/12 Feed set to 800ppm still half grow half bloom 12/13 Some pics lights on just getting the hang of it Nuets now just the Coco Tek half grow half bloom 800-ish ppm 15% runoff 2.5 quarts 5.9PH at lights on
