Good to know, thanks!. I just ordered a 5 gallon. I've been running H2O2 in the rez and it's been helping but I'm ready to start using some Biowar again. Been soaking our cuttings in H2O2 and aspirin prior to cubes and thats been very effective! We are trying to regenerate out of this shit by constantly taking new and healthy clones.After cleansing a few times with OXIDATE, we re-inoculate with beneficials. This RUN we are using OG (OLD SCHOOL GROWERS) VEGANIC SPECIAL SAUCE.
3ml per gallon of 29% h2o2 and 325 mg of aspirin per gallon. They love it. I have some chitosan now so we'll be trying that instead of aspirin.@Chrondondalae how strong is your h2o2 and aspirin dunk?
Feel free to combine your chito and aspirin... there's some info I've read (and possibly posted in this thread a couple pages back) about the benefits of chitosan and salicylic acid working together...3ml per gallon of 29% h2o2 and 325 mg of aspirin per gallon. They love it. I have some chitosan now so we'll be trying that instead of aspirin.
Hey @BangarangWhat is the best way to clean/treat cuttings? Dip in oxidate? Dip in chitosan? Then cloning solution. Or pre-soak your rockwool in one and use the other as a dip?
I think the virus is transferred to the seed alsoI've been hanging on to a Bruce Banner cut in a dudded condition for about a year now. She's been hard to clone, but I've kept her going. I though at first that I could clone her back to health, by cloning, vegging and cloning of the healthiest new growth. But after 8-9 times it seems to be getting me nowhere.
So in a last ditch effort to save the cut, I took two clones, reversed one, and flowered them both. I got about 16 viable beans from this... as they were pretty small and unhealthy plants.
Has anyone else tried this?
I'm trying to see if this condition is due to a recessive gene, as mentioned earlier in this thread.
Or... If these beans turn out to be undudded healthy plants, I guess it would tell us it is an enviromental or pest/disease condition.View attachment 525595
Popping the beans today, I'll check back when the results are in.
Hey guys-
I know there have been lots of established theories about nematodes being the cause of the dudding, I have very strong reason to suspect that the stunting is viral, and is transmitted by root aphids. I have been to a lab three times with tissue samples of infected plants and have yet to see a single nematode (even with the help of mycologists and soil biologists) after hours of lab time. I know there are samples that people have seen nematodes on, but at least two of those samples came from outdoor plants, where it is far more likely to encounter nematodes.
After working with an old friend working in a food science program at a major university, I have identified the species of aphid that attacks cannabis (Rhopalosiphum rufiabdominale - the red rice root aphid...originally I had thought the species was Rhopalosiphum padi - the bird cherry oat aphid, but the red rice aphid fits the bill 100% anatomically and behaviorally), and discovered that it is a major vector for a disease called "barley yellow dwarf virus" which affects cereal crops worldwide.
BYDV is known to hibernate in many different types of grains and grasses, but, just like the rice root aphid, is not known to infect crops outside of the Poaceae family, until now. Because of how drastic the implications of this could be, I'm going to be getting some help from leaders in this field, as well as help from a specialized lab that deals exclusively with plant viruses. I've been chasing this problem extensively for nearly 3 years now, the general consensus of every professional I've worked with has been that this is a hormonal collapse or a viral infection; we'll know the answer soon.
I know it's been discussed earlier in the thread, but a question mainly for @We Solidarity and @Chrondondalae: do you experience symptoms on individual branches of otherwise healthy plants, or is the entire plant always involved? Thanks.
Due to the size of this thread, I kind of feel like this post deserves a thread of its own. That, or I can put edit the very first post to add this to it.Hey guys-
