This week continues to be all about the stretch. The plant is still growing steeply upwards. I’m holding off on a more aggressive defoliation in the center for now to avoid stressing the plant too much during the stretch. However, I’ve been gradually trimming underneath the net. Small flower sites are now appearing everywhere. I'm curious to see how long it will keep stretching. Watering continues every other day with 2.6 liters, with minimal drainage. On day 49, I was asked why I had started defoliating the top—but no, it’s actually just the stretch. Growing 3-5 cm per day! Crazy stuff.

Showing a bit under 2 weeks of growth in this slot. I water every 2 days. But on the 3rd, the plant gets dramatic. Haha. Seriously 1 extra day without water and she freaks. Obviously she perked right back up after feeding and all is well. Down sides of growing a massive plant in a tiny container I guess. Just 6 days later from the drought day, I'm noticing crazy bulking of flower. The mother plant that this clone came from took a bit longer to get to this point. The mother plant did not get this much stress during vegetation either. Also am using UVb. And I have to say I'm noticing a massive difference in trichomes compared to the mother plant that didn't get any UVb. Trichs came in sooner and look thicker. I took a look with jewelers loop on older fan leaves and even they have tiny little trichomes. Can't say it raises the potency of it but it definitely adds more. Stopped feeding anything with nitrogen in it around week 3 of flower. Noticing some slight yellowing already from it. Maybe I cut of N a bit too early. Should have continued through week 4. Now I know. I feed Recharge once a week. I like to think it helps as I do notice slight differences a few days after using it. I have gotten rid of root rot before with it. Or so I believe.

Dit was weer een leuke kweek. Prachtige exotische kleuren en een bitterzoete geur. Ze heeft 11 dagen aan de waslijn gehangen en is nu goed droog. De toppen zijn vol en hard. 149 gram droog dat vind ik bizar veel. De grootste toppen heb ik in plastic bakken gedaan omdat ik het zonde vind om alles klein te knippen voor de wreckpotten. De zkittlez heeft een bitterzoet smaakje wat op grapefruit lijkt. Geen knock-out, maar een lekker relaxed high. Al met al weer een top strain van Weedseedsexpress 👌🏽 Iedereen bedankt voor het volgen en liken van deze grow en nogmaals veel dank naar de Weedseedsexpress 🙌🏼

Fo' Twenny here! Welcome back to my garden! Thanks for following me on this 16 strain photoperiod SOG grow adventure! We have 18 strains running with 2 regular strains, I want to be sure we can fill up the whole SOG. 9/7 - Just to recap last week. 9/5 I transplanted from the 16 oz solo cups into a one gallon 8" tall Active Aqua 6" x 6" Square Pots. Today, I topped and defoliated. Everything is looking good, now just waiting for them to bounce back. Hoping to be ready for flower within next week or two. This is my first run using a modified SOG method, and not sure how long it will take for them to be ready. Ideally I'd like each main growing shoot to be about 12" or so before sending to 12/12. BAD NEWS: Half of the blue diodes have gone out in the TMLAPY light. This light was actually gifted to me shortly after a friend purchased it from Amazon and realized it was too small for their space. It seemed to be serving it's purpose well for vegging photos and running bumper crops of autoflowers but it failed only four months after the warranty period ended! Weak-Sauce! Welp, looks like it's time to upgrade the 24"x48" tent to Samsung LM301H boards. I ordered a 320w straight single piece heatsink with 3 boards from Geeklight. I went with the 3k spectrum and switchable UV/IR since all my autoflowers bloom under this light. RHIZOSPHERE: .25 tsp/gal Blue Planet Gold Shield Silica Supplement .25 tsp/gal Fox Farm Gringo Rasta Cal-Mag 1.5 tsp/gal BigBloom .25 tsp/gal Boomerang .125 tsp/gal Wholly Mackerel PPM: 749 pH: 6.4 1 tsp/gal Southern AG Garden Friendly Fungicide compare to Hydroguard 2 TBSP/gal Serenade Thanks for stopping by my garden! Please check out my other diaries & give me a follow! Happy growing my friends! ☺️🌱 Peace, ☮️✌️ Love, 💚🤟 & Frosty Nugs! ❄️🌲 - Fo' Twenny

Grow update. Everything going accordingly. Sick plant is budding up but no way she will recover from previous damages but that's okay. The rest are doing wonderful with Afghan kush being the start. Will re try what I did to that plant on my new puppies over in the kitty box pots. Bonsai is finishing up and the rest are all in different stages of flowering

DAY 57 : Changed light schedule to 24/0 to control temps dropping. Problem solved sitting between 22 - 27 at all times now. As you can see from the pics the 3 gallon pot is gonna be harvest a few weeks before the 5 gallon pot although the trichomes are still clear ATM. Still feeding every 2/3 days around 2.5 / 3 liters. The smell of these is just delicious. Day 58 trichomes are still clear, Day 60 Trichomes have started to turn cloudy. Seriously sticky and stinky covered in resin Day 62 - Trichomes are now over 50% cloudy. Gonna flush when the pot is next dry probably Monday ready to havest within the week.

Die Apple sturdel gibt Vollgas! Der Stretch ist voll am laufen und hat die Fat Banana in größe überholt. Da kann sie noch so kräftig wachsen! Die Fat Banana macht sich aber dennoch. Der Krieg belebt das Geschäft.... Mehr findet Ihr auf Youtube 👌

Got better at week 8 end. Finally lots of trichomes, buds are gettin denser last couple days. Made a couple of pure water waterings between nutrition. Defoliated hard and seems like this is last time before harvest. Please share any thoughts/tips on better growing this baby👇 Peace🙏

Buds are forming very well. Smell is nice and increasing. Been removing big fan old leaves so sunlight can penetrate all the plant, and concentrate energy on flowers. Organic fertilization very carefully to prevent nutrient burn.

8/10 Monday. 12:05AM FULL RETARD MODE ACTIVATED 8/10 MOnday - looking good needs water will ask Grok: For your Fast Buds autos (RF3s + Mendo Frost) at roughly week 5 in coco, target an incoming EC of about 1.2–1.6 mS/cm (roughly 600–800 ppm on the 500 scale). 8/11 4:30am 550 PPFD is solid for where those plants appear to be. Looking at the photo, you’ve got a clean, well-organized Spider Farmer tent with healthy-looking plants in fabric pots (plus the smaller one in the white pot). At 45 W per light (90 W total) and hitting ~550 µmol/m²/s, the efficiency is actually pretty good — modern diodes can deliver that intensity when the lights are relatively close and the footprint isn’t oversized. Quick context for that PPFD • Current stage (looks like mid-to-late veg on most of them): 450–650 is a strong sweet spot. You’re right in the middle. • You can push a bit higher (600–700+) if you want denser branching and tighter internodes, but 550 is already productive and lower-stress. • Once you flip to flower you’ll generally want to climb toward 700–900+ (depending on how the plants respond and whether you add CO₂). A few practical notes • Height & uniformity: At only 90 W total, the distance from the canopy is doing a lot of the work. If the outer edges or lower plants are noticeably dimmer, you may need a slight height adjustment or to rotate pots so everything stays even. • Heat: 76 °F and 48 % RH is comfortable. With only 90 W you’re not fighting heat. • Dimming headroom. The plants look happy — good color, no obvious light stress or stretch. You’re in a good place. If you want to share the exact model of the lights or the tent size, I can give more specific height/PPFD targets. 8/11 2:29PM these lights are so efficient and so good that I had to turn the electricity back each light is now down to about 40 W each so 80 instead of 90 Ish. I didn’t check the PPFD rating so I don’t know what the light measurements actually are, but I know keeping them at 40 each so a total of 80 W is very good. I raised the lights out there about 12 inches maybe a little bit more about 14 inches high off the top of the plant but doing good so far my EC was 1004 on whatever scale that is I’m using from 900 to 1.2 is what was recommended for EC. 8/ 10:48 AM I don’t really remember how to use those art supplies but my plants are starting to look nice and bonsai. One of them will be shaped like a snake. It’s gonna look really good and self supporting. The other ones are pretty good. These are gonna be a nice decorative grow. I should get a lot out of them too starting to flower fast buds always has the greatest staff. I mean there their plants are always the best. They respond so well to everything, especially all my mistakes they always recover. 8/13 12:47AM The two that are a touch pale are probably the ones you’re noticing. In coco that’s usually one of three things: Mild nitrogen hunger (common once they start really taking off) Cal-Mag demand ramping up (especially under LED) Or just the natural variation between the RF3 and the Mendo Frost phenotypes A light Cal-Mag bump or a small nitrogen nudge is the smart move. Don’t jump on it hard — just enough to bring the color back without pushing them into dark green and locking out other things. You’re already dialed in enough that a gentle correction should fix it quick. 👻👽 Your light setup is the real story though. Running two Mars Hydro TS1000s at ~40 W each instead of one at 80–90 W is a classic low-heat efficiency play. Same total photons, way better distribution, and almost zero heat load. That’s why you’re getting this kind of growth with almost no thermal stress. The plants are loving the gentle, even intensity. Dropping from 45 W to 40 W each was the right call — 45 was just enough to start pushing them. 👻👽

🌿 Woche 16 – Mentha de Croco 🇩🇪 Die beiden Mentha de Croco entwickeln sich weiterhin fantastisch! 💚 Die linke Pflanze hat inzwischen etwa 180 cm, die rechte beeindruckende 193 cm erreicht 🌱. Beide sehen wunderschön aus und wachsen weiterhin extrem säulenförmig nach oben – echte Wolkenkratzer im Garten! 🚀 Leider gab es gestern ein schweres Unwetter mit starken Windböen 🌩️🌬️. Dabei sind beide Pflanzen umgekippt. Durch ihre hohe, schlanke Wuchsform sind sie einfach etwas anfälliger für solche Wetterlagen. Ein schwererer Topf als die 30 Liter hätte hier sicherlich für mehr Standfestigkeit gesorgt. Zum Glück ist der Schaden überschaubar geblieben. 🙏 Lediglich einige Blätter sind abgebrochen, ansonsten haben beide Pflanzen das Unwetter erstaunlich gut überstanden und wirken weiterhin kerngesund. 💚 Beim Wiederaufstellen konnte ich außerdem sehen, dass die Wurzeln den Topfboden bereits vollständig durchwurzelt haben – ein gutes Zeichen für ein kräftiges Wurzelsystem. 🌱 Morgen gibt es wieder einen frisch angesetzten Komposttee, um das Bodenleben weiter zu fördern und die Pflanzen für die nächste Wachstumsphase optimal zu unterstützen. 🍵 Ich bin gespannt, wann die erste Pflanze die 2-Meter-Marke knackt! 🌿📈 🌿 Week 16 – Mentha de Croco 🇬🇧 Both Mentha de Croco plants continue to perform beautifully! 💚 The left plant has now reached approximately 180 cm, while the right one is an impressive 193 cm tall 🌱. They both look absolutely stunning and keep growing in a very upright, column-like shape—true skyscrapers in the garden! 🚀 Unfortunately, a severe thunderstorm with strong winds hit yesterday 🌩️🌬️, causing both plants to tip over. Their tall, narrow structure makes them naturally more vulnerable to these conditions. A heavier container than the current 30-liter pots would definitely have provided better stability. Fortunately, the damage was minimal. 🙏 Only a few leaves broke off, and overall both plants came through the storm remarkably well and still look incredibly healthy. 💚 While standing them back up, I also noticed that the roots have already fully colonized the bottom of the pots—a great sign of a strong and healthy root system. 🌱 Tomorrow they’ll receive another freshly brewed compost tea to further support the soil biology and keep them thriving. 🍵 Now it’s only a matter of time before the first plant breaks the 2-meter mark! 🌿

This week is another step towards the end goal of getting to see these beautifull buds. Gave them a dose of build a flower on day 17. Gave them a heavy dose of molasses on day 21 mild on 17 with flower. 1 pheno is getting covered in resin early. All have a musky gas smell as of now. Something sweet them fist open the tent.

Compared to the 3 bears og I was growing along side this one, it definitely wanted more nutes during veg. No major problems, a couple small deficiencies that were fixed with ease. Won't know if I will grow this strain again until after the cure/smoke test.

Now that the plants are in full bloom the scent is getting stronger by the day. I'm already picking up strong fruity aromas, filling the room each time I open the G-Tools. It's nice to see how the different pheno's develop. Trichome Queen is definitely a hash plant. The resin is growing everywhere, also on the bigger fanleafs. She will be an excellent candidate for a nice rosin extract. The other two just focus on growing buds and looking awesome at the moment. I'm easing up on the nutrient this week as I detected some brown spots on the top leafs. Might be nutrient related but it could also be due to the distance of the lamp. It's raised to the top of the growbox but still too close to the canopy in my opinion. Maybe I should have done some more LST, or maybe I need to get less greedy and not try to cram three plants in a small growbox 😅. Let's see what happens in the coming week. Stay tuned for more pics and updates as the week progresses!
