I’ve noticed that too. It’s really shitty C I’ve been trying to pull a few leaves off of my autoflower lowers every day. The weather has been great no rain and minimal dew I just hope I can make it to the end of the month keep the sunny side up! Peace, love dove, and groovy Sister!
Awww, so beautiful! Thank you! And it's perfect 'cause I'm allergic. LOL
That's why I grow zinnias and snapdragons, little aroma.

The sunflowers are a perfect size, and the glads, black eyed susans, and is that lavender? Just perfect!
 
There are a lot of different Iranians and not all of them Carry the 18 hour flower trait! If she had the right one, it would’ve been in flower by now! At least as far as I know! But I think it is something worth pursuing in Cpurrr’s situation!
Makes me think a little engineering (breeding) might bring that short season attribute into other lines. But, I'M not doing it. LOL

Also, I'm not the only one battling septoria, apparently it's a big problem for the commercial growers too. At least the ones who have outdoor grows. I wonder if @shaganja has encountered it in his neck'o the woods.

Currently reading a readit post recommending specific varieties resistant to that damn disease.

I think he said he is working on breeding that 18 hour flower trait into some of his other stuff!😁 I think all of these fast strains use a certain amount of ruderalis! I guess the thought never occurred to them to use a land race where it is completely natural to achieve their desired result! Maybe the final product won’t be pretty enough! But router Alice is natural also!

Well chucky your prediction of the worst case senario happened with the 3-4 plants in a bag. (of course 1 will be a female, right?)
TOGYK regular seeds. Somehow I picked 4 males!
Now I have 24 other plants in 5 gallon pots that would have LOVED to be in that pot.
Maybe I have time to pick the lucky girl who gets new shoes.
But that means I have to dig the roots out... of 4 plants... in a 20 gallon pot. Too much work. LOL

Absolutely brutal!😁✌️ I think I would still try and figure out a way to clean up the 20 gallon soil and get one of the other plants into it!! I just yank them out, shake off the roots as best you can and stick something in the pot! Even if it’s only 3/4 full of soil! If you wanna hassle with it! You don’t have to get all of the old root material out!
 
This actually works to extend veg? Would like to know more about that.
Evidently it does! But he is using them to extend veg in early spring! I don’t think that is moth season yet! From here on out, it might be so you’d have to be careful with it! It is on the Jade nectar channel on YouTube on growing Iranian 18 hour flower that need to be kept in veg long enough to be big enough to be viable when the light is removed! He does a lot of segments on Iranians! He’s in love with them! Lol! He was harvesting at the end of July! But said he got started a month late this year and usually harvest at the end of June or early July! Very trippy plant!

Oh, and did I mention I split the bottom of the pot open before adding the potting soil?
So that means the tap roots are probably halfway to China! Ahhhhh
But, the weather is wonderful and I've got nothing else to do, so, I guess I can try to clean it up. Won't be pretty. LOL

I don’t care! Empty pots are not allowed! You get something into that pot you lazy so and so! Now the shoe is on the other foot! Ha ha ha! I hope you remember!😂😍
 
Out in the garden, they use little solar spotlights mounted on posts.I think he said they were like 10 bucks apiece at Home Depot!
I had thought of using these before I ran electricity to my greenhouse. The drawbacks I saw were not being able to turn them off at a set time and their lack of light strength. But standard home LED's with the diffuser removed and ran for 15hrs a day will keep plants vegging. I've been doing it for several years now and I have flowered and harvested almost every month of the year. Jan/Feb/March being the most difficult to get flowers to plump up so I don't flip going into winter unless I'm breeding😉
 
Hey Gal, I use about 1/2 bottle of hydrogen peroxide in 5 gallons of water with about 1/4 cup lemon juice. And then rinsing in clean water.
Figure, the peroxide will get any bacteria and the lemon juice will discourage mold. Sounds good. LOL

I started doing it when my plants had some PM and I didn't want to trash them. Saw Jorge's video and was sold.
When I was looking over the autos and taking the fan leaves off I came across quite a few dead ants. Yuk.
This doesn't affect the trichomes or quality?

For those of us growing outdoors there are plenty of bugs that love marijuana plants, some strains more than others and there's no way I can grow and get much smoke, unless I wanna smoke leaves from not maintaining an Intragated Pest Management system or IPM. From neem being my go to to Jack's Dead Bug to diatomaceous earth to sulfur I've got to keep the insect numbers down or I get very little smoke and might as well buy it😉
 
Totally agree with you @PlumberSoCal2 . We monitor these plants for 6months it seems like so why deal with flying or crawlers crapping an eating our harvests? So many safer pestisides now adays. Now i do not spray any further than 2wks prior to harvests i had pick through the colas and buds while i pre trim them on the standing plant. Not saying it's the best way it's just the way i find it effective and i like stabbing them worms LOL😂🤪

I had a butterfly taunt me last week. This morning, when I walked out there, it was sitting on one of the weed plants and I swooped upwards with my net and was certain I caught it. Nope. Have to refine my technique I guess. LOL

And no it wasn't a monach or swallowtail or any pretty thing. I believe it was/is a silver spotted skipper 'cause I've been finding leaves clumped together with webbing and a tiny worm inside. They don't eat alot, but are in the bud spots at the ends of the branches, so they are on my hit list. LOL

If you think about the environment the flowers are in for about 2 months, and how sticky they are, I'm suprised it isn't standard practice.
And I don't smoke, so I can't vouch for flavor or smokability, but it doesn't seem to affect THC or CBD in my edibles.

I pulled one apart a few months ago. I thought it was a spider but when I opened it up there was a worm🤬
