Edmonton water is treated with chloramine, it pretty much won't gas or boil off. Our city uses it too, and I find it messes with microbes a bit, but lot's of people are growing with it with no problems. Though, they warn you to treat aquarium water first now. Main concerns are EC and pH in the...

that last crazy lookin monster bug is a lacewing larva. He's cool, they just eat aphids and probably those little caterpillars.

Same. They haven't even decided on a standard testing device so the limits are really just out of thin air, default to prosecution. Why haven't they chosen one yet? Is it cause gov't officials own most of the shares in the testing device companies and this how we pump em up before they dump them...

Canada too. Our "legalization" (in October) comes with police powers like never before. They can pull drivers over without a reason now and demand a sample on the spot. 2 ng=$1000 fine, 2ng and trace of alcohol=fine+30 days, 5ng no booze=fine+30; those are first offenses. Fail a saliva test, cop...

They (thrips) like humid shady places: under pots, reservoirs, table legs. make sure and spray there too so they don't just hide and wait to repopulate. I change shoes and stuff for the grow room, they are everywhere outside, like they're beating the door down to get in.

I had a similar problem with mine. Ordered a new probe and no better. Their rep emailed me back the next day with with hope. Basically-the readings are sensitive to inconsistent power supply, my adapter was shot ($25) works fine with a fresh 9v. He said they'll gladly take it back and test it...

I'm in S Ab. By first frost we still have 13 hr days making autos the only option and I find them too small; If I'm gonna grow outside, I want trees. I could have grown outdoors legally the last 2 summers but stayed in. Between the frost, road dust, nosy peekers...I dunno. If I had a light dep...

You can file a statement of claim through JohnTurmel.com There's a grow op exemption kit available for $2, it's a little legwork for you but they (Health Canada) have been seeing them plenty lately and they are reacting. Good luck, that sucks.

Me, I'd spray until the first dusty (open and polleny) one shows. I usually just fem one small spot, a little pollen goes a very long way.

Hey Icemud, I've had good success with regular old colloidal silver from the health food store. I tag one spot and spray it 1-2 times a day in veg for 2 weeks before flip and then continue spraying after flip for another 2 weeks. By week three the one site is loaded, and needs to be isolated or...

Minute Pirate Bug- he's a good guy. no worries

Coroplast- corrugated plastic, comes in 4x8' sheets or cut down at the hardware stores, looks like plastic cardboard. Get the solid color kind that lets less light through, I've done exactly this in F+D to finish, worked pretty good actually.

My Soil Prof. always said as soon as your pH drops to the 5s metals will start coming loose in your soil and lead to toxicity. This makes me wonder about peat based potting mixes that are only kept in the acceptable pH range by lime buffering it up out of the 5s. Almost every "what's this...

I have a couple strains that preflower in anything under 20hrs-BBxC99, Paradise seeds-Jacky White...Screws the veg growth structure up so, I have to keep those on super short nights. Not technically an auto, but eager. Your's is really going for it though, no turning back to veg now. Try 20 hr...

Spot on advice Wee Zard, release at sundown. Ladybugs under lighting can have the same outcome-gone the first day-as they tend to bounce off the lights and die. Lacewing larvae are voracious little guys too, look for them. Also, kill all ants, they are the top vectors for aphids. you see it...

I picked up CannaFarms for my interim supplier, $8-9 +17.50 shipping it's around 4x my grow cost but they have some good ones(tangerine dream mmm) After a dreadful term with Tilray, Canna has been nice to deal with. Also went with THCBiomed for clones,(worked out to $50 each with shipping)...

Collective sigh of relief:party1: Congrats

Seattle based, they run Tilray in Canada, which produces cannabis for global markets(Germany, South America, Australia, New Zealand) Tilray isn't publicly traded but used as an market success example (carrot dangle) for investors in other projects. Check Tilray.com to see what else they're up...

Been there, renewing soon...sigh. It's really tough to make it actually work for you. Mine got returned in 30 days cause I missed a date, then 90 days to get the amended one processed. I'm hearing 4 months right now, leaving you 8 to grow (yup it expires either on your Dr note date from 4 mths...

I've tried ladybugs and they aren't very aggressive in the beetle stage, only as larva. All of my beetles flew into the HIDs and died in days. They're ok in greenhouses. For pest predator insects look into lacewing larva, cheap and mean. youtube has some good vids on Chrysopa.
