For the fruit flies I'm sure you can put a layer of sand on top of your medium and it stops them from reproducing in the medium .... or it might be fungus gnats I'm sure it's one of them tho and I bought the cx horticulture pmt mixed it up
the affected plant had had the doses and it's gone not even sure if it was definitely pm no other plants had it but it's gone now and no sign of a return

just battling the warm weather I need to invest in an ac unit I have leaf curl on the blue slushies no other plants tho

I like the bluchi strain I grew two out my last run I didn get lookers but affect and smell was there I've popped another 7 I think to grow out hoping to find a keeper

I think you can get a micronised sulphur burner that creates a gas for pm but I Dno how that would go with in flower as sulphur has a strong eggy odour doesn't it

Yeh brilliant! you've given me an idea, I've got some weed blanket I could seal up the pots with that, sand sounds ideal aswell but I can get on with the weed blanket tomorrow.

Burning sulphur doesn't smell great right enough, I've got sulphur rocks somewhere I'm going to dig it out and try to add to my nutrient apparently it can or does Improve the flavour of fruit and weed?

I'm looking forward to trying the bluchi v3 I've no doubts it'll be a good smoke.

I hope you find a nice keeper from your 7 plants that would be nice, it's good to grow a plant a few times and learn its traits to make some improvements as you go it's all part of fun ;-)

Thanks again for that suggestion it's perfect, it's chemical free and near guaranteed to work, in fact if it fails its down to me so I'll work accordingly lol

I'm glad to hear it's cleared up that's ideal.

Cheers bud

Those sticky traps have highlighted a problem I thought was minor, I've got circa 50 fruit flies between 4x traps in 24 hrs.

They're in the air, the coco, they laying eggs and have a larval stage idk how to even approach this with plants in bloom or what with?

I read about a thing called mosquito bits does anyone know how effective is that is, something that worked at larval level would be most effective as fresh eggs would be doomed and the cycle would collapse?

@Liamp1603 how are getting on with the pm bud?

Fwiw I've been reading about sulpher powder clearing up pm and it kill bugs + improves terps, jfc I'm not promoting it but it appears to be set in stone?

Hey bud, yeah it's a 50/50 hybrid leaf lol...
Tbh i didn't notice it was half the leaf, I mean i noticed it had coloured and expected the rest to follow, it's only now I'm looking closer I can see its exactly half the leaf wow!

I'll get a better pic of it tomorrow and I'll keep an eye on it to see what happens with it later on?

Cheers bud

Any chance half that leaf/side is cooler or hit with a fan or something vs than the other side/green bit hence more purple? That's the only time I've spotted that half and half thing going on like that it looks cool anyway

It's in the back left corner it should be much like the rest of the canopy for heat and light.

Hey bud, yeah I'm looking for 3ft on the river height 5ft i wouldn't complain lol I'm hoping the heaven's open!
It's been a shit year for sun and rain, I've only been salmon fishing on my local once this season.
My local is spate river so when we get heavy rain there's a fair chance of picking up a salmon.
