Whos in the superbowl feb 7 ? And if any american friends think they can give me the winner and margin let me know ill throw $100 on it
Denver and Carolina panthers, panthers by 14 or 17 points . A ass whoppin I would presume .
The betting line opened up at Panthers -4.5 and the betting line has moved to -5.5 (All the betting money is on the Panthers so far) and the over/under is 45.5. I like the Panthers and the over in that game, unless El Nino shows up. They say February is the most active month for El Nino (Superbowl is Feb 7th).

Never had to deal with white flies before..why is it something different each season :o
Sprayed once this week but when back home am gonna have to find a break in the weather to spray 2 or 3 times in a week

Its usually just two spotted spider mites if anything but this is the first time ive EVER come across whiteflies on a grow...
Im putting that down to one of the most humid january summers we have had here.
Im glad i sprayed before i left but now im hanging to get home to hit them with twice weekly sprays till they are dealt with pain in the arse flowering is just beginning but i know from eggs and any that flew when the plants were shaken that its not a plague and im gonna keep it that way.
Funny thing is they are concentrating mainly on the WW and not the bubblegum even tho the plants are touching

I remember my uncle had whitefly indoors a long time ago and it was a battle! I could be mistaken but I thought he finally used avid to take care of em.
I got them outside this year and only controlled them . Of course brought them inside because of drying. Had them in my big grow room but got rid of them in about 4 sprays of spinosad.i noticed they were in the grass when I mowed it. Have to spray grass this year.

The only thing different around my grow is the neighbours cut down their palm tree that was half dead ? About 3m from the plants ..surely not

It was my first year growing, i tried just about everything and nothing worked. I lost my Green Ribbon to them. And like your WW @ruby fruit , they were only on the GR and not my other two
Im worried now..cant get to them for 4 days.
But sprayed 3 days ago didnt seem plague proportions but whats a plague ?
I spotted 5 to 8 eggs on some leaves underneath.
And only a handful flying when i shook the plant.we are getting rain now does that slow or help them ?

If you are just seeing the eggs you should be ok til you get there...i had hundreds of them. Get a handle on them soon though
Only eggs very minimal flyers wife shook the bushes today and said she seen no flyers but i know it rained so the eggs could still be there like i said only 4 or 5 a leaf and only certain amount of leaves not heaps
