To be honest, i might rather the mexican brick weed lol at least they wont lie and tell me its amazing and high testing.... $30 an 8th for that crap........Looks like deseeded mexican brick weed.......
Have you shown your manager the plant you are growing? Maybe he needs to understand what "good" weed looks like.
How wet is the soil before you water again? Sometimes gnats come from soil that stays too wet. Gnats like to lay their eggs in wet soil giving the larvae a water source to be able to develop into. You may want to let them go a day longer even if the plant is starting to show signs of wanting water. Drier soil doesn't allow the gnat larvae to develop properly, and they die off in the soil.I found a single living fungus gnat floating around in my humidifier water last night!right when im about to be gone for a fuckin week. Thats beyond fuckin annoying. I know i can spray the soil down with a good amount of neem oil spray, that shit killed off the fungus gnats in my lady's potted plants last year. Il have to make sure her dad knows to keep an eye out for them.
I was letting it get pretty dry before watering. Not all the way of course, but i always let it dry out enough to make the plant show me shes thirsty. The little fucker was hangin out in the humidifier reservoir, so hopefully it felt like the soil was too dry. Either way, i set my waterer to give water 1 day later just to make sure the problem doesnt get out of hand while im gone. I think il have the problem under control pretty quickly when i come back.How wet is the soil before you water again? Sometimes gnats come from soil that stays too wet.

Of course you don't want to let the plant go dry but if you can give an extra day to dry back you may be able to get rid of your gnat population. I used to use sticky traps to get rid of gnats but ever since I've been keeping an eye on soil saturation levels I don't get gnats anymore so I don't bother hanging traps.

When i amend this soil after i used it, im gonna add some ground up neem pellets to give a touch of pest resistance. I heard good things about black swallow, i might use some of their amendments.
Also, cant do the timelapse this week, reception is terrible camping. But i can take a snapshot from the tent cam at least lol
THAT is good to know. Im gonna look into that stuff when i get home lol thanks dude!How to Use Mosquito Bits for Fungus Gnats: Ultimate Guide
To use mosquito bits for fungus gnats, simply sprinkle the bits on the topsoil of your plants. Fungus gnats can be a nuisance for indoor gardeners, as theirinsectpestfacts.com
You can first make a tea out of the bits and water it in. Sprinkle the rest on your topsoil.
I'd stay away from amending pesticides into your soil. Neem is natural but best to keep it as clean as you can. You're growing organically right? Bits is a natural, organic insecticide. The bits will control any gnat infestation if you get any more, besides, it was just one gnat. If you see a bunch more I would start thinking about controlling them with the bits. If you want to be proactive about it you can just make a bits tea and water it in before you leave. The tea alone will probably wipe them out.
Haha yea main reasons i wanted to lower the temps through flower is to help preserve the terps and hopefully give a little extra color to the buds :)You are doing a heck of a job providing ideal conditions! VDP is right! I'm not sure why you want cooler? If it ain't broke, don't mess with it! Lol.
Overall, plants are forgiving over a good range of deltas, but certainly some more then others! You can go cooler if intent is to try to get color when flowering?? Either way, you're well on your way to the growing addiction lol.
Hahahaha yea man theres a TON to read in this thread! Hope you get some good info out of it :)Much to read, much letters. Yet, I see you're taking a lot of care for those ladies...It's just pleasant to watch!
Agree. Your light may be a tad high but the plant looks good so I would leave it as is for now. You can maybe back the light off a hair and see how the leaves react?It’s just some standard die back on the lower canopy. Man happens to every plant. You know it’s good looking looks like you could up the p a little bit. But honestly man, they look good. I really wouldn’t rock the boat too terribly much. I just stayed the course until they’re done fat buds, dude.

You might like the brush better than scissors, I did. Since we have similar drying environments you might come to the same conclusion. I might have over dried my plants a tad so the brush was kinda of destructive to some more crispy buds. It tore them up a bit. But it sure rips the leaves off. I eventually settled to using my fingers because after they get a little sticky the leaves just clung and let me pull them off so easy.So cool seeing the trichomes up close :) ordered a wifi microscope after seeing someone else post some pictures using one lol shouldnt be spending money after vacation but fuck it, i want itgot a cannabrush too so i can see if i like that or the trim scissors better
I just looked into that, looks like something id wanna use if i had a lot of plants lol im gonna hand trim this run though so i get the experience i need for future growsI've heard good things about Trim Bags.
