It's just the luck I've had this year. Tired of all the woes that come with dirt. Been thinkin about getting in to a "ponic" setup for a few years now. I been growin for over 20 years. In some form....

So I go take a gander on my outdoor grow.... Hemp borers....lil orange bastids. I can't freakin win. I got 1 good plant outta like 20 I have grown. Indoor or outdoor, it don't matter. I get outdoors is "wild" and it's not a closed greenhouse, but indoors too? That's so crazy. I need to...

I gotta say, aphids are somethin else. I damn near killed that plant off. Most of it is dead now, so this may be just an experiment at this point, but holy hell. Now that the plant is starting to come back, holy hell are the aphids back again! With a vengeance. The branches that have good...

That is the aftermath pf what I did. They were thick. Some leaves were just aphids. Internally, the plant was just...raveged. So I trimmed it, then I "gently" sprayed all the dead plant and aphid matter out of the center. This is what was left. No more aphids. Might have won that...

I think I got all of 'em. Pesky aphids..... Should be good to go now I think........

Prolly dunno....but one thing I am learning....when someone deadpans a statement.....maybe perk the ole wind antenna up. That plant was so infested, I drug it outside and hosed the crap outta it. Prolly not good for it, but dang....that room gonna need a good cleanin. Ima take the...

Just an update on this thing... Gettin aphids under control on a bush like this is....difficult....haha. Neem was actually harming it I think....which is odd. But, she's growing into a massive bush. Tons of colas. If I wanted to clone a strain, this is one on that list. Prolly 100 colas...

Yea...it could be just me, but I been sproutin seeds of many varieties for probably 40 years....this stuff maybe 5 now. I got bag seeds from 20 years ago that pop right off...🤣 The seeds that didn't go looked immature...couple were almost white. So I dropped the rest into paper towels and...

I dunno folks. Glad I didn't chop that Cali Octane, even tho in the last few days the aphids came back with a fury... Out of 24 seed (4 different strains), I was able to get 4 to germ, only 2 to grow, 1 lookin like maybe it will take off, 1 lookin not so hot. I tried several methods....and...

I'll look into that. I had an issue outdoors last year with what looked like corn worms, or so the app I used says that's what they were. Couple snuck in with the crop and got after my Guzzlers....so Ima need to figure that out for this year. Guess they live in the dirt...

Another update on the old girl... Saw a few aphids, and eradicated them. Neem seems to work pretty good, so yea...that's cool. Think Ima just let her veg now, and do some defoliating when she gets a wee taller. There are so many colas coming up it's insane. This stuff is kinda fun to grow...

Juss an update to how the old girl is doin. Been LST-ing the branches, flattening the plant out. Tons of colas are coming up. Very tight nodes. Got the bug issue resolved. No aphids for a few weeks. Got her greenin up again, reaching up for the light. She's lookin good! I hope I get a...

She's a stocky lil plant....these nodes half inch apart maybe. Lots and lots of grow tips. This stuff gonna be huge and crazy. Sonethin tells me I may get a giggle or 2... This was pre-trim and bend yesterday. Trying to get her spread out....

Have not seen any aphids for 2 days. She's startin to look good again. Stuff does grow pretty crazy. Bet you could get clones for days off one of these ifn ya wanted to.

Yea. That was my first thought. But is Minnesota and winter...haha.

Welp. A week or so in and I gotta say......I say 1 bigger aphid running down the stalk and 4 eggs on the under side of a leaf. Cut that leaf off. Nowhere else did I find any signs of aphids. Crazy considering they were crazy outta control! Neem works. Takes a while. Plus, I was takin the...

Well, so far the flyers are all but gone, and I have been not so worried about "trimming" the heavily encrusted fans off. I have been using Neem and a few other essential oil things, but I think just hosing them off with a spray bottle jet with coffee filters at the base to catch the lil...

Yea. This plant just started veg a week or so ago. Just sprouted it. The google box says neem, or some other organic stuff. I know ladybugs would work...haha. These things showed up quick. Guess they are prolly from the pro mix I used too. Them pesky flies.....grrrr....

Ok. What can I do to get these lil buggers?

Here's an even clearer image...
