Drying Log 10/31/18
Went to collect Banana Ice Cream #2 from the drying room to start trimming today and was shocked to find it infested with spider mites. They were so bad I had to sacrifice a couple of colas they had saturated. The BIC#2 didn't have a mite of problem so I quickly deduced they must have migrated. I harvested the plants that were in there over several days so as one plant dried there was always a fresher plant to move to until there was only the BIC#2, and there they amassed. I am never skipping the H2O2 bath again.
It's hard to see but they're all the way through this whole cola. Normally they'll make a little tent at the top of the drying branch/stalk (bottom of the plant hanging upside down) but there there were so many that they reached a critical mass an spread lower. It killed me to give up these frosty colas but !@#$ing yuck!!!
