Thanks. I definitely learned something about managing outdoor grows and how to handle the pests. I also had a few caterpillars that damaged the Mystery plant before I could get BT on it. It's odd that they went for that one over the others but they messed up the main cola, so I probably lost about 1/2 oz . At least they didn't touch the lower buds. My guess is that the Bubba will end up giving me close to 4 oz,
Big Bud close to 3 oz and Mystery will end up just about 2 oz. That means my 6 plants should end up producing about 14 oz. Maybe not the best, but for my purposes it'll do.
The Borg ravaged my Orange Creamsicle but barely touched my Royal Nepal Kush, at the same time, same garden caterpillars tore up my cousin's Blue Dream but left his Gorilla Glue, JB Kush, and my plants alone. I had no idea until this year about how strain specific, pests are.
Your girls are looking great.
Good move leaving that Bubba to mature a bit. You really should buy a 30x or higher jewelers loop. If you have excellent vision you might see the ambers but a cheap loop makes all the difference when you need to spot them early.
I'm a little envious of your
Big Bud. I got good memories from that stuff. It was the first bud I found to be an aphrodisiac. When I was 30 I was going out with this crazy little 21 year old punk rocker chick and we loved when that bud came around. She run around the street naked on that sh*t and nobody minded, at all, rofl.
