If you have some insecticidal soap hit them with that before you try the iso.

Damn.. everyone seems to be getting hit this year. Sorry to see it. I bet if we did some studies there might be a new breed.

@Putthataway showed me this when I was hit.

The Curious Case of the Cannabis Aphid

The first confirmed sighting of the cannabis aphid in North America was in 2016. Since then, the hungry bug has spread rapidly across the continent.

Here is what I have atm for pest control, I might have some other stuff outside as well.
Being that I have a bunch of plants outside as well as in, its almost inevitable that I will get some of those pests inside, either through me or the dog. But aphids will always be here had them when I grew hops as well. Only had mites once around 5 years ago, no pics but if I remember I think they looked like 2 spotted ones.

I can hit them with the soap.

Amazon.com

100% organic and safe seed/clone through harvest, won't burn, works amazingly well. One, maybe two treatments tops. Worth every penny.

(I crack my shit up)

Again I am not sure what those green worm type things are? Type of larva or infant caterpillar? And is that tiny white translucent thing a type of mite?
I have no problems spraying just not quite sure what they are, besides the aphids that is.

Again thanks all for the insight, if need be I can get out the dslr, not sure if that would be better though.
Should I spray first then up pot?

ok just so im clear. The first video is the real song from the cartoon, The entire version and not just the intro? I was seeing some goofy animation embedded into that video and I started tripping!!! Still confused as fuck I have seen the turtles! Im a fan! I swear! and I’ve hit my head a few times lol! And what the heck’s an MMT!? lol!! Is that the second video? That shit was super dope! Yes first time hearing that stuff, that I can remember haha!!

Was supposed to be MNT (Mutant Ninja Turtles, yes we had slang for that too back then hah) yes the first one is the intro to the cartoon I remember, it changed a few years later but not much, then the 2nd video is still me of the movies that came out with there’s been a few in the past few years I believe

The first video yeah probably been edited etc but the song is right

I’m leaning twords thrip for the skinny long one, are they really green or are they clearish / white and you’re seeing the green though them from the leaf?

Looks like when I had thrips, do you have a jewelers loop or Wi-Fi microscope to get a close up of it?

Actually I do have hand tremors but not Parkinson's. It usually takes a few tries to get a good picture because I can't keep my phone totally still.....like ever. Even using two hands. It was comical trying to take the photo. Plant in my right hand, phone in my right pocket trying to get it with my left hand and shoot a one handed pic in a matter of seconds. Sadly that was the best pic.

Lmao ahh shit now I feel like a dick I hear that though I'm pre-diabetic so I get the shakes in the morning and I don't even drink

That's exactly what it is a baby thripe. That picture is almost identical to what it looks like, and the baby aphids or nymph aphids that's exactly what the small bugs look like as well. So that's thripes and aphids not mites then.

So just a spray with insecticidal soap should be okay then. And again thanks everybody for the help. I didn't really notice them but my eyes are pretty weary

Nah its all good brother. I had a good friend back in the day who had Parkinson's. Far worse than my deal. No doctor has figured it out yet. Not Parkinson's, not Cerebral Palsey, not MS. The shakes are the least of my health issues. That's life man. Some would say I ain't never been right.

I'm done with this sick little Bi&%$ sorry but i'm dropping out of the challange. This POS auto is getting worse daily. Best of luck to the rest of you all. Bad luck start for me on this one.

Awww man that's a drag!

are you thinking it was the up pot? That thing took off at the beginning! Sorry Gal!

It sounds further along than my run was : ) aawwww I want some of that sticky icky icky!!!!! Are you going to update one of your threads with pics?

I ended up chopping all 3 down.
I'll throw some pics up before and after trimming.

The 2 bigger plants that were still taking a bit of water, still had some immature buds and green leaves on the lower parts of the plants. I really wanted those to mature but not at the cost of ruining the upper buds so I just harvested them all.

The foliage on these were crazy and had issues with air flow and light penetration. I ended up defoliating during Week 3 of Flower but the leaves grew back twice as thick.
I go back to me vegging to long, need to cut a couple weeks off.

I ended up putting supplement light at the bottom of the tent a few weeks ago to try and help it along, should of did it sooner I guess.
I don't waste the smaller immature buds, usually grind some of it in with the mature buds and smoke it anyways.

I'm sure I could use them to make something but haven't tried doing anything like making extracts or anything.

I'm trying out this AC Infinity Drying Rack, never used one before so we will see how it does.

Yes i had a bad feeling about it when i potted up. I really don't have problems until this time with her doing auto transplants i do it all the time with autos never had a problem. I put it outside sitting on a table in the sun. I could tell she got stunted she wasn't happy at all.

we know its a fluke! Seen your grows and what you got going : ) I wonder if setting it outside was the kiss of death though?

Don't drop out! She still has a bit of time

Also, the angry reaction is about the seedling/bad luck not you .

I know this isn't related to the 1 gallon challenge but I figured this thread is kind of a free for all at this point so why not ask here

Can anyone tell me what's going on with my plants?
Yesterday was start of Week 13 of Flower.
I notice quite a few of my buds are starting to grow extra green bits with white pistils, never seen this happen to my plants before, especially this late in flower.

Think you have nanners, could be wrong though. Looks almost seeded or something it's weird

I have used similar style multi layered dryer before, once! My buddy let me get in on one of the levels. I would absolutely get one! : ) I really didn’t like my last dry and cure with the totes! It’s on the list : )

So you are thinking that supplemental lighting was helping just not placed in time? Thats something to get down earlier next time for sure, really curious about those end result : )

I know shit shrinks down after it dries a bit but thats a good looking haul in the hanger drier!

It happens to the best of us, you're not doing anything wrong.

I still have 3 seedlings that I planted at the same time as you that are even smaller than that, and the rest are doing fine. I just chalk it up to a dud seed or genetic mutation. Watch, it may just suddenly explode one of these days, but that's the problem with autos, it may not leave much time for veg at all and you'll end up growing a fat joint

Start another seed? You'd only be a couple weeks behind and it's not like we're playing for money or something. Just switch to 12/12 like 2 or 3 weeks or however long it has been, after we do, so it's still on the same allowance of time..

Oh and maybe try a photoperiod this time if can. I just hate autos personally I think they are *only* good for regions like Alaska where you don't get enough darkness or something for regular photos.

same bro I remember why I stopped growing these weird plants...

RootFarmer · Aug 27, 2024

Did someone say fat joint?

I think Pizza Jesus fucked up or something. I was checking on my baby this morning and I'm pretty sure that this is Notorious THC and NOT Blueberry Cupcake. Those are some wide ass leaves.

I'm actually happy about that. I wasn't looking forward to wrangling that stretchy strain anyway. Thank you Pizza Jesus!

Ok, ok there is a SLIGHT possibility that I was high and mixed up my labels when I planted seeds. I just find that hard to believe.....
