🌿 Mentha de Croco von Terpyz 🇩🇪 Woche 25 und mittlerweile ist bei beiden Pflanzen das Höhenwachstum endgültig Geschichte 🌿. Die linke Mentha de Croco steht weiterhin bei etwa 2,18 m, während die rechte Pflanze sogar noch etwas weiter auf 2,37 m gewachsen ist 📏🚀. Bei der Budentwicklung liegt die linke Pflanze weiterhin vorne 🌸. Die Buds sind schon deutlich weiter entwickelt und werden langsam richtig interessant. Beim Reiben an den Zuckerblättern kommt mittlerweile ein extrem intensiver, zitroniger und fast schon lösungsmittelartiger Geruch zum Vorschein 🍋. Ein wirklich spannendes Aroma, das ich so bisher noch nicht bei einer meiner Pflanzen hatte 👃🔥. Die rechte Pflanze verhält sich dagegen momentan deutlich zurückhaltender. Ihr Geruch wirkt erdiger und weniger intensiv 🌱. Aber die Blüte ist noch lange nicht abgeschlossen und gerade beim Terpenprofil kann sich in den kommenden Wochen natürlich noch einiges verändern. Ich bin deshalb sehr gespannt, ob sich die beiden Phenos am Ende noch stärker auseinanderentwickeln 👀🌸. Was mir ebenfalls zunehmend auffällt: Das Cultivar scheint wirklich zur Ausbildung riesiger Buds zu neigen 😳🌸. Genau das lässt mich inzwischen etwas nervös werden, denn auch meine beiden Pflanzen beginnen, ordentlich Masse aufzubauen. Ich bin gespannt, ob die Zweige das Gewicht der Buds gegen Ende der Blüte tatsächlich problemlos tragen können 💪🌿. Nach den Erfahrungen mit den starken Herbststürmen werde ich das auf jeden Fall genau im Auge behalten 🌬️. Ansonsten passiert momentan gar nicht so viel. Heute bekommen beide Pflanzen noch einmal Almicanna Komposttee 🍵. Danach heißt es eigentlich nur noch beobachten und die Pflanzen machen lassen. Der Wasserverbrauch liegt aktuell bei ungefähr 4 Litern pro Pflanze und Tag 💧. Je nachdem, wie warm es tagsüber wird, schwankt das natürlich etwas. Durch die deutlich kühleren Temperaturen ist der Bedarf mittlerweile wesentlich niedriger als noch vor einigen Wochen 🌡️. Ich würde sagen, dass wir jetzt ungefähr Halbzeit bei der Blütenentwicklung erreicht haben 🌸⏳. Und genau ab jetzt wird es richtig spannend. Die nächsten Wochen werden zeigen, wie gut das Wetter mitspielt und wie sich die Buds unter den Bedingungen des deutschen Herbstes weiterentwickeln 🍂🌧️. Wenn alles nach Plan läuft, wäre Ende Oktober ungefähr der angepeilte Erntezeitraum ✂️🌸. Bis dahin kann allerdings natürlich noch einiges passieren. Jetzt heißt es Daumen drücken für möglichst viel Sonne, wenig Dauerregen und vor allem keinen großen Sturm mehr 🤞☀️🍂. 🌿 Mentha de Croco by Terpyz 🇬🇧 Week 25 and by now the vertical growth is definitely over for both plants 🌿. The left Mentha de Croco is still around 2.18 m, while the right plant has reached an impressive 2.37 m 📏🚀. The left plant is still ahead in bud development 🌸. The buds are noticeably further along and are starting to become really interesting. When rubbing the sugar leaves, the aroma has become extremely intense, very lemony and almost solvent-like 🍋. It’s a really fascinating terpene profile and definitely something I haven’t experienced with one of my plants before 👃🔥. The right plant is much more subtle at the moment. Its buds have a more earthy and less intense aroma 🌱. But flowering is still far from finished, and the terpene profile can obviously change quite a lot over the next few weeks. I’m therefore very curious to see whether these two phenotypes will become even more different by harvest 👀🌸. Another thing I’m noticing more and more is that this cultivar seems to have a tendency to produce absolutely huge buds 😳🌸. And that makes me a little nervous, because both of my plants are starting to build some serious bud mass as well. I’m really curious whether the branches will be strong enough to support the weight of the buds towards the end of flowering 💪🌿. After dealing with some strong autumn storms earlier in the season, I’ll definitely be keeping a close eye on them 🌬️. Apart from that, not much is happening at the moment. Today I’ll give both plants another Almicanna compost tea 🍵. After that, it’s mostly a matter of observing and letting the plants do their thing. Water consumption is currently around 4 litres per plant per day 💧. It varies a little depending on how warm it gets during the day, but the significantly cooler temperatures have clearly reduced their water demand compared with a few weeks ago 🌡️. I would say we are probably around halfway through the flowering development now 🌸⏳. And from this point on, things are going to get really interesting. The next few weeks will show how well the weather cooperates and how the buds develop under German autumn conditions 🍂🌧️. If everything goes according to plan, late October would be the approximate target harvest window ✂️🌸. But a lot can obviously still happen before then. Fingers crossed for plenty of sunshine, not too much continuous rain and, above all, no more major storms 🤞☀️🍂.

Week 12 (29-12 to 4-1) 29-12 Temperature: 26.4 degrees (lights on) 20.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 72% (highest) 50% (lowest) Watering: None. 30-12 Temperature: 24.6 degrees (lights on) 18.7 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 71% (highest) 50% (lowest) Watering: None. 31-12 Not at home. 1-1 Temperature: 25 degrees (lights on) 18 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 68% (highest) 45% (lowest) Watering: Both 2000 ml. PH: 5.8 EC: 1.8 As you can see the PH from the feeding water is a bit low, this is because someone suggested that i can try to lower the PH as my PH pen was a bit too high, aswell as my soil PH. Lamp is at 80% and 40 cm distance. Happy new year growmies! 2-1 Temperature: 25.5 degrees (lights on) 18.4 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 47% (lowest) Watering: None. 3-1 Temperature: 25.2 degrees (lights on) 18.4 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 56% (highest) 49% (lowest) Watering: None. 4-1 Temperature: 26.4 degrees (lights on) 18.8 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 44% (lowest) Watering: None. I did a soil slurry test to check my soil PH and EC. I dont know how accurate this is, but these are the results: Water used for the test: PH: 6.5/6.6 EC: 0.0 Biscotti #1: PH: 6.7 EC: 0.8 Biscotti #2: PH: 7 EC: 0.6 No pictures of the plants today.

Still doing foliar: Cal-Mag Terra Aquatica, Pro Bloom, and silicate from T.A. some plants are removed because of root root. naw left with 19/24 plants. I also use a mobile app to set the light intensity, and I burned the leaves later. Which gave me the knowledge that the application is not very accurate.

This grow I am going to do it differently. I am going to do day tracking instead of date tracking. I am using using pre-grown ( two grows ago) Coco mix with nature suppers soil to experiment with reusing grow medium. The pots are 5 gallon air pots. I have never used these before so we will see. The 1st take on them that they are very messy compared to fabric pots. Once established, I will be using half strength Advanced Nutrients for Coco since these are autos. Day 1 - 3 Seeds soaked overnight and were put directly into the 5 gallon pots. I pre-soaked the Coco with 5ml/gallon Clonex and covered the seeds with a mason jar. Day 2 - Temp stayed around 78 all day with me going in and out of the tent looking for a sprout. Nothing yet. 😀 Kept the Coco moist under the jar. Day 3 - Nothing popping Day 4 - Two have popped. Day 5 - One did not pop so I put another seed in Day 6 - The little ones are growing up. It brings a tear to my eye. 😥 Day 7 - The replaced seed looks to be comming up.

I grew all of my plants the same and with 3 strains and only being allowed to have 5 plants total I have to pick the strongest growers and hope they stay strong and this time for me the gamble payed off nicely with a good harvest. I would recommend this strain as it grows fast and did not seem to be a picky eater and took in a lot of heavy feedings... Thanks for checking out my harvest and If you have any questions I will do my best to quickly answer them..

Wochenupdate – Tag 91 | Blüte Tag 31 🌱 Allgemeiner Eindruck Der Grow läuft insgesamt noch stabil, aber man sieht inzwischen recht deutlich, dass die Pflanzen in den letzten Tagen am Limit gefahren sind. Der Blütenaufbau geht weiter voran, der Geruch wird intensiver und die Kush zeigt ordentlich Harz, gleichzeitig zeigen beide Pflanzen sichtbare Calcium- und allgemeine Nährstofftransportprobleme, die klar auf das Klima zurückzuführen sind. Das war für die Blümchen spürbar Stress. 🌡️ Klima & VPD Durch trockene Winter- und Heizungsluft kam es zeitweise zu sehr hohen VPD-Werten (teils im Bereich 1,7–1,9), vor allem morgens – klassisch morgens Sahara, mittags Treibhaus. In dieser Phase stand mein Luftbefeuchter noch bei einer anderen Pflanze. Er ist inzwischen wieder im Blütezelt, wodurch sich das Klima deutlich beruhigt hat. Die aktuellen Symptome zeigen gut, dass der Nährstoff- und Calciumtransport unter dem hohen VPD schlicht eingebrochen war. Nährstoffe & Maßnahmen CalMag wurde ordentlich erhöht, um die Calcium-Verfügbarkeit abzusichern. Zusätzlich wurden Mikroben gegeben, um das System wieder besser ins Arbeiten zu bringen. Bio-Bloom wurde ganz dezent nachgeschoben. Durch das ungünstige VPD haben die Pflanzen zeitweise nicht sauber getrunken, was den Transport zusätzlich ausgebremst hat. Seit der Entlaubung an BT21 ist der Wasserverbrauch sowieso etwas geringer. Jetzt heißt es: abwarten, wirken lassen, Geduld üben 🐛 Schädlingslage Trauermücken gehen dank Nematoden langsam zurück. Trips sind weiterhin präsent, daher gab es nochmals Raubmilben sowie Florfliegenlarven zur Regulierung. ✅ Fazit Insgesamt bin ich weiter zuversichtlich. Der Stretch ist eingefangen, die Richtung stimmt, auch wenn das Klima kurz deutlich zu hart war. Jetzt geht es darum, das Setup stabil zu halten und den Pflanzen Zeit zu geben, sich wieder sauber einzupendeln. Draußen Winter, drinnen Blüte. Allen eine gute Woche. 🌱 RockoCalenberg Weekly Update – Day 91 | Flower Day 31 🌱 Overall Impression Overall the grow is still running stable, but it’s now quite clear that the plants have been pushed close to their limit over the last days. Bud development is progressing, the smell keeps getting stronger and the Kush is showing plenty of resin. At the same time, both plants show visible calcium and general nutrient transport issues, clearly linked to the climate. This phase definitely caused some stress. 🌡️ Climate & VPD Due to dry winter air and heating, VPD levels were temporarily very high (partly around 1.7–1.9), especially in the mornings – classic Sahara in the morning, greenhouse at noon. During that time, the humidifier was still running with another plant. It has since been moved back into the flower tent, which helped calm and stabilize the climate again. The current symptoms clearly show that nutrient and calcium transport was simply maxed out under those high VPD conditions – this wasn’t just isolated spots, but visible overall. Nutrients & Actions CalMag was increased properly to secure calcium availability. In addition, microbes were applied to help the system get back into balance. Bio-Bloom was topped up very lightly. Because of the unfavorable VPD, the plants were not drinking cleanly at times, which further limited nutrient transport. Since the defoliation at FD21, overall water uptake has been slightly lower and is being taken into account. For now it’s about waiting and letting things work, without further interventions. 🐛 Pest Situation Fungus gnats are slowly declining thanks to nematodes. Thrips are still present, so another round of predatory mites was added, along with lacewing larvae for additional control. ✅ Conclusion Overall I’m still confident. Stretch is under control and the direction is right, even though the climate was clearly too harsh for a short period. Now it’s about keeping everything stable and giving the plants time to settle back in. Winter outside, flowering inside. Wishing everyone a good week. 🌱 RockoCalenberg

Growing fine except one Original Glue that is lagging behind. Perhaps not worth doing but we will see after the stretch. - New addition to the tent , Purple lemonade FF ( for next run, clones ) Some LST 12/23 - pre flowering indications on all plants Switching out the metal halide for the HPS. Time to start budding.

Hello. This is the end of week 9 and the beginning of week 10 of veg. The plant is doing good. It's sticky when I work with it. Sorta a citrus type of smell. I've been pushing the branches under the rung when they get long enough... training... OK. Keep Growing Straight. Chuck.

This week we should really see these colas blow up and start stacking really strong. The mixer of 7 hours of sun and 17 hours under my LEDs has really helped my girls grow strong. Nothing compares to good old Mother Nature.

I also made a new 10L feed, and added it to the reservoir, there was still 2850 ml in the reservoir, so i can calculate how much they get per watering. Opened the reservoir for a couple of minutes. 21-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 19.3 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 66% (highest) 54% (lowest) No pictures. 22-4 Temperature: 23.7 degrees (lights on) 19.7 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 67% (highest) 42% (lowest) Opened the reservoir for a couple of minutes. 23-4 Temperature: 23.6 degrees (lights on) 17.7 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 50% (lowest)
