They got you too🥲. Damn. Plague of mites for lots of growers right now. They had me chasing my tail as well on my last run. Wetable sulphur did work to a point, but gotta be hammered with repeat applications, but still they seem nearly impossible to eradicate completely. GL

I think we are about 2 degrees off from communicating. Sorry I don't speak Afrikaans.
i have reread what i sent you and it confused me as well. this was more an issue of me being high as a kite last night then my aptitude at translating afrikaans to english as i type. considering your response, you got the gist of what i attempted to say anyway. ill only add that the benefits of h202 germination are concise and should be a consideration whether sterilization is the goal or not.

Next thing is to change growth medium and delivery. Start each in nute water and feed them sugar. Dextrose was this agar, but I'm thinking something mimicking Bud Candy would be a good next step.
Don't forget the nutrients. Only from sugar many bacteria can not grow.
Like plants and animals, they need other substances to build their DNA and divide.
With your plates you can just see which MOs grow only with sugar I would say.

Wiki also helps a bit.

However, I think that using BudCandy is not a bad idea. You can say a lot of bad things about AN, but their fertilizer portfolio seems to make sense somehow.

Lol I think we are having another anthem moment

Red- “start each in nute water and add sugar”.
Dutch- “don’t forget the nutrients “.

It’s like everyone on this forum smokes weed or something.

You bunch of sinners. 👹

It’s actually every other day. Maintenance is 7-10 days. There’s no spray I love everything about and no product I consider to be good enough to stand alone but it’s another tool in the kit to rotate through
I’ve now got 5 different ways I am attempting to eradicate these fargin ice holes.

If those together don’t work I’ll be looking at adding this in.

I perceive this like finding the right antibiotic for the type of infection you have. I’ll contain as best I can and eventually hopefully put this behind me.

Looking back thru this thread, it seems to me it might be time for it to die. Just like those mites that came in with the clones.

I think I’ll start new threads for fog and RDWC. Probably include the microbe thing in both of those. Electronics in fog. O2 in fog. Probably pull out the cloning stuff and curing stuff to make their own threads as I get questions on that stuff and having them try to pick it out of this mess is tough when they just want answers not a bunch of smart ass stoners making fun of anything and everything.

We even turned a parasitic infection into a clown show. Good job on that.

Anyhow I’m probably gonna take a break from posting to this thread for a couple weeks while I reset and rebuild.

Been a fun ride. Next up fog 2.0 and Dragonsflame Genetics.

#1 rule of thumb;
There not gone, as soon as you believe that they will prove you wrong!
1 egg hidden in a corner or in a ballast, under a rug, in a tiny crevice in the concrete floor.
It can sit there for months, years even decades.
Don’t let your guard down!!
Ever!!!!!!!

Hey Moe, really sorry that this took this road but maybe something good may come from it after all this hobby is so immersive and wide that you never stop learning from it. I believe what many big facilities that run ultra-sterile have for anything new is a quarantine-room (or chamber) so that may maybe save you some stress in the future.

Think I’m done with clones for a while bro. But if I ever try a second time, I’ll be prepared.

I’ve got so many seeds it’s rather silly. Time to use some.
