think i got it! worked on it till the lights went off and couldnt see anything. ill go back out there a little later after my eyes adjust a bit, to see what i missed.

Get ahold of @Greenadian , I like his crosses. Haven't harvested yet but the structure and leaf size is very good. Looks frosty atm, and the two veg ones have been a solid clone mother and love the subsoil drippers.

Gotta throw this out there also....

Nitrogen levels in and or during flower......

Scientifically, the studies are yet finalized, if they've even studied it....

But the consensus is lowering Nitrogen levels in flower, turns the plant from delicious to not so scrumptious.....

Kinda makes the plant turn on more defenses naturally......

Floral hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) responses to nitrogen fertilization under field conditions in the high desert

While most studies on floral hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) concur that additions of nitrogen (N) increase plant growth, the performance of floral hemp is heavily influenced by environmental conditions, management and cultivar selection. In regions with a short growing season, the availability of...

thanks jj! Yeah I have whole cover all and glasses and the respirator : )

going to do single batch minus the igr for treatment around the property. Then I’ll make a batch with the igr for around the entire shed and beyond. Then I’ll get back on the grow safe and neem regimen.

What were you guys treating for in the silos?

What are you going to spray that on?

 

[BearWater]

What are you going to spray that on?

in and around the shed. Possibly on my plants

Why?

i was reading up on the russets. The best thing to use to get rid of them is micronized sulphur? (Spelling?) but its advised not to use if you have already applied an oil to your plant, which I’ve been treating with the Bronners. So if I can get ahead of them with this stuff then i should be able to just go back to the bronners and neem.

 

[BearWater]

Why?

Mites of the harder to get rid of

Spinosads wont touch the russet. It’s a different kind of mite : / than what the captain jacks will work on.

You got russet mites? Do you know where they came from?

I honestly havent ID’d them 100% but based off the damage on this current grow and the finish of this most recent run, and they response to my efforts in management being less than ideal, aaannnddd the size of the little tiny F’ers!

I have NO CLUE where they came from. they can literally blow in the wind from what I understand. could be someone around here with them in a garden. could have got them from somewhere in town. like last year at my kids school, i was sitting in my vehicle and saw aphids crawling up my pant leg from the trees the school had!

Hi make sure you wear the safety gear, and check your mask by covering the filter and breathing in, if air coming in its usually the exhale flap not seated right.
I had a faulty mask once sprayed 2 bedrooms for bedbugs, sick as a dog for 3 days. Like a bad hangover without the drink up first.

Great safety check homie! Appreciate it!

As a former shop steward for the union I worked for... SAFETY FIRST. 99% of accidents are "but I didn't go over to the desk for my glasses". Once.

The propping open of a lid with a stick or some shit!

dude i live in the land of AG osha video after osha video about lock out tag out while going into equipment. how not to hold lawn mowers over your head to get a “nice square edge”, augers will pull you apart… very slowly, while you bleed out

So yeah!… don’t stick your d*ck anywhere you wouldn’t stick your fingers!

I watched a guy break a drill bit off using an auto feed press and it stuck in his arm! we both laughed about it, but im not sure that wouldnt of killed us had it hit a eyeball!

Seeing more dead mites, or at least what I think are dead mites. Also seeing living mites : / if this continues I’m going to get the micronized sulphur and spray the fuck out of them. (reaching do or die) ill cull the entire run and start fresh. I’ve got lucky in the past with bugs. this is a real pest issue that’s testing my patience and abilities. I hit them this morning with bronners. I may go out tonight and blast the shed with neem.

I tossed one of the taller plants in the solo as it was just covered! I sprayed it with my iso wash last night before bed. Not happy with the results of that so flung to compost pile she goes!

either way I’m going to get the sulphur spray for around the house and shed. I dont care if I burn anything outside lol!

Wanted to upload the pics I took from my phone but I can’t figure out how to initiate the sync! The new iPhone update sucks!
